Today, the seven year old is strong, healthy and cancer free. Last year, the family started Project Love Box. The goal was to gift 100 children in hospitals with a Love Box at Christmas time. The outpouring of support from the community was overwhelming and they ended up gifting 1,100 children with a Love Box all across the GTA, Durham and beyond. Their goal this year is 2,000 Love Boxes. They are holding a fundraiser on Saturday, Sept. 23 at Jukebox Live in Pickering.

Germaine P ....South Ajax Police tryingto ID man who exposed himself to girl in Ajax AJAX — Police are trying to identify a man who exposed himself to a student Fri- day morning in Ajax. The 14-year-old girl was walking in the area of Dobson Drive and Bird Crescent at about 9 a.m. Sept. 8 when a man pulled up in a vehi- cle and asked for direc- tions, police said. After speaking briefly to the man, the girl realized he was exposing him- self. The girl ran from the area and reported the incident to school staff, police said. The suspect is described as a black man in his 20s with brown eyes and a scruffy beard. He wore a red-and-black ball cap. The car is a black Honda, possibly a Civic. Anyone with any information relating to this incident is asked to call police at 905-579-1520, ext. 2582, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Directive follows review of Dafonte Miller case Jeff Mitchell jmitchell@durhamregion.com DURHAM — Durham’s police chief has implemented new guidelines to augment what he called “inadequate” requirements for alerting the Special Investigations Unit about incidents of civilians being injured during interactions with officers. Durham police will now contact the SIU, which investigates incidents of injury or death involving police, whenever a case meets the agency’s criteria, Chief Paul Mar- tin told members of Durham’s police services board Monday morning. “There will be no exceptions,” Martin said. “Whatever happens in Durham Region will be the responsibility of the Durham Regional Police Service. As the chief, I guarantee it.” The announcement comes in the wake of sustained furor over the case of Dafonte Mill- er, a 19-year-old Whitby resident who sus- tained serious injuries during a confronta- tion with two men — one of them an off-duty Toronto police officer — last December. Responding Durham police officers origi- nally charged Miller with offences including assault with a weapon. Those charges were withdrawn by the Crown. What seems to have most struck a chord with the public, however, was the failure by police to report Miller’s injuries to the SIU. The agency was finally con- tacted in April by lawyer Julian Falconer, who rep- resents Miller. In July, the SIU charged Toronto police officer Michael Theriault and his brother Christian Theriault with offenc- es including aggravated assault and public mis- chief. Falconer has called the failure by police to contact the SIU a ”cover-up”. After a review of the case, Martin conclud- ed that according to provincial legislation, it was the responsibility of Toronto police — Michael Theriault’s employer — to contact the SIU. He said Monday that while that may be the law, it’s not good enough. “I am confident my department followed established procedures in keeping with pro- vincial laws and regulations,” he said during the Sept. 11 police services board meeting. “But what is now equally clear to me is those procedures are inadequate and need to be changed.” Martin vowed to take the lead in contact- ing the SIU in future, rather than relying on other services to do so. “From here on, if a conflict between one of our citizens and a police officer takes place in our community and the incident meets the criteria for calling in the (SIU), then I will ensure that happens,” he said. Outside the meeting, Martin told report- ers that although protocol was followed in the Dafonte Miller case, “we didn’t meet the expectations of our community.” “I’m not saying it was a mistake — we were following provincial legislation,” he said. “What I’ve come to realize is that our policies were inadequate.” The incident, involving an off-duty offi- cer from a service other than Durham, was unique, the chief noted. “It’s the first time we’ve encountered this,” he said. “And we defaulted to the legislation.” Herongate Barn Dinner Theatre Imagine The Perfect Night Out Herongate Barn Dinner Theatre Clip n Save$15.00 off per couple onFriday & Saturdays inSeptember & October (With this Coupon) Historic Victory BurlesqueTheatre in Toronto.

And the little girl is asking for the public’s help. “I want people to fill the Love Boxes for kids in the hospital for them to feel better,” Sophia said from her family’s Pickering residence. Last year Sophia and her family, which includes her father James Megan and her big brother Caleb Megan, start- ed Project Love Box with a goal to gift 100 children in hospitals with boxes filled with toys and other small gifts at Christ- mastime. They ended up giving boxes to 1,100 children in Durham, Toronto, Barrie and Scarborough, including the Scarborough and Rouge Hospital’s Cen- tenary site, where Sophia received treat- ment. “It was so positive,” Georgiev said of the Love Boxes. “It’s a lot of work but it’s so rewarding.” Since a modest goal turned into such a big success, they have upped the ante to nearly double the amount they wish to donate this time around. The family is holding a fundraiser on Saturday, Sept. 23 at Jukebox Live in Pickering to help raise funds for the proj- ect, and to encourage others to make up some boxes. Boxes will be available for people to take home and fill up for a child at a hospital. “September is also Childhood Cancer Awareness Month,” said Georgiev. Project Love Box is the latest addi- tion to the Super Sophia Project, a not- for-profit organization which has helped countless children going through cancer in various ways. Sophia and her family have been helping sick children since the early days of her cancer diagnosis when she was one month shy of turning two. “She inspires me every day,” said Georgiev, who said her daughter inspires her to appreciate the gift of life. Sophia’s upbeat attitude has encour- aged many people to give to the project, which in many ways has become a team effort. “They love her positive energy,” said Georgiev. “Seriously, always smiling, and always giving.” Georgiev made Sophia a princess purse that resembled a tutu for her sec- ond birthday to cheer up her daughter, who lost her hair to chemotherapy treat- ments. Once it was posted to their Face- book page, Georgiev became busy filling orders that poured in for the creation. Georgiev also created personal- ized scrubs for children, which she had originally made to add a bright spot to Sophia’s hospital visits. The family wrote several books, including a cookbook called I’m Full, featuring healthy recipes made with healing foods, and more recently, Posi- tively Penny, about being positive, lov- ing, forgiving and caring. Many of these creations have been donated to children with cancer, thanks to donations, and sales from items available on the Super Sophia Project’s online store. “I like helping people because it makes people happy,” said Sophia. Georgiev feels the projects help her children learn the value of helping oth- ers. “I want them to be caring, compas- sionate kids,” she said. Other children can learn this same lesson from filling a box, Georgiev added. Sophia was recently recognized by Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan, who made up a box himself in April, and the Super Sophia Project is currently on Ellen Nation. If she gets enough votes, Sophia will have the opportunity to appear on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Her entry can be found at bit.ly/2gXVqVm. Either monetary donations or items are needed to get Love Boxes into the hands of children, which will be deliv- ered to all children at the hospital, not only to kids with cancer. “We did a lot of teens (last year) and the nurses were so grateful because they’re often overlooked,” said Georgiev. “We also do a lot for the NICU (natal intensive care unit).” The boxes can be filled with items suitable for kids in age groups of: NICU; one to 12 months; two to four; five to seven; eight to 10; and 11 to 14. “But most importantly fill it with love,” said Georgiev. The Love Boxes will be delivered around two weeks before Christmas. Monetary donations can be made to ngeorgiev@rogers.com through PayPal or email money transfer. Tickets for the fundraiser are $15 for adults and $10 for kids. They include a complimentary drink and appetizer. Jukebox Live is at 1211 Kingston Rd., Pickering.

Pickering Islamic Centre collects donations for St. Paul’s On-the-Hill Community Food Bank, raises awareness of need in Ajax and Pickering PICKERING — A first walk for a local food bank that serves both Ajax and Pickering on Sept. 10 proved to be a success. The Pickering Islamic Centre's walk for St. Paul's On-the-Hill Community Food Bank held its first walk for the organization in order to raise awareness about the need in the area and to collect donations. It invited people from all religious and ethnic backgrounds to take part. "It was a huge success," said Ward 3 city Coun. Shaheen Butt, who supported the event. "We almost had about three van loads of food that was collected and it was a great day. I think the food bank was overwhelmed with the community’s support." He also noted many people donated gift cards to local grocery stores.

Content is protected by copy-right. Publication Sales Agreement #40052657 September is alive with the back-to- school buzz and university cam- puses are no exception. This fall, Trent University Durham GTA wel- comed its largest class, and the excitement of the new academic year ahead is evident on campus. Students — energized, refreshed and eager to learn — attended orientation activities and academic workshops to prepare themselves for a successful year ahead, and while excitement is in the air, starting at university can be an adjust- ment. University can be a truly wonderful time and students often find that by fig- uring out how to manage any challenges, they learn a great deal. It’s an opportunity to explore ideas, get involved on campus and learn about one’s own capabilities. Students are excited to start a new chapter and may require support as they embark on this new journey. Fortunately, universities offer a wide range of support for students. At Trent Dur- ham GTA, orientation activities included academic sessions to introduce students to the assistance available to them on cam- pus. Accessing services early on, when any problems are still manageable, is one strat- egy to ensure success. Academic advising, mentoring, and skills workshops are just a sampling of the aids offered at Trent University Durham. Students have the opportunity to devel- op academic skills in study techniques, time management, effective presentations and essay writing. Academic and person- al assistance is available at every step of a student’s journey. Speaking to an academ- ic adviser, counsellor or peer mentor can help to develop strategies to manage bet- ter. It’s easier to stay motivated if you have a good balance of activities. Participating in activities outside of class hours will pro- vide an opportunity to meet new friends, staff and professors, and will enhance academic success, and promote a healthy lifestyle. Extracurricular involvement will connect you with the vibrant campus com- munity and can result in a truly transfor- mative experience. While at university, students learn valu- able life skills that will extend beyond the classroom. Having an open mind and tak- ing advantage of everything university has to offer will lead to academic success, per- sonal growth, and position graduates for a bright future. -- Jenifer Richardson is the manager of Student Affairs at Trent University Durham GTA our opinionour opinionour opinionour opinionour opinion Ugly, deplorable, despicable, disgusting: let’s not mince words — that’s what racism is. We call on every resident in all our com- munities throughout Durham Region to condemn it wherever it exists, report it, and have it addressed by law enforcement and the courts. The scourge that is racism has no place in Durham Region and in our society at large. It must be denounced in the strongest pos- sible manner at every turn. Full stop. Unfortunately, in 2017 it’s an odious real- ity in Durham Region. We need look no fur- ther than a Courtice woman who suffered the indignity of a brazen hate crime this week. Nicole Wilmot-Bush, who is multira- cial, was the victim of a racist epithet carved into her car while she went shopping for groceries in Oshawa recently. She noted she’s never been the victim of such overt racism since becoming a Cour- tice resident in 1996. “I walked around and I saw it and I was like, oh my God … I just stood there, I was in so much shock because I’ve never expe- rienced something like this,” she said. She called Durham police and subsequently posted her ordeal on Facebook, where her post has drawn dozens of comments of sup- port for her. Homophobia has also reared its ugly head in Durham Region this year in an overt, hateful message scrawled on the garage of a Pickering couple this summer. Brett Alford- Jones and his husband Paul returned to their home after picking up their daughter from ballet practice to see a misspelled gay slur followed by the message ‘Time to move 30 days’ in orange paint on their garage. Durham police were also called to inves- tigate the incident. Why is latent racism and homophobia becoming more overt in 2017? We need look no further than the ‘alt-right’ rhetoric ema- nating from our neighbour to the south with the ascendancy of Donald Trump to the presidency. When Trump failed to imme- diately condemn and denounce the rac- ism and violence on full display by the Neo- Nazis and the KKK during their march on Charlottesville, Virginia, it had the net effect of emboldening racists and homophobes everywhere, including in Canada. We know most residents of Durham respect their fellow citizens of all colours, races, religions and sexual orientations. But, we should never, ever fall silent when citi- zens are victimized for the colour of their skin, their faith, or for being gay. We call upon law enforcement to redou- ble their efforts to catch these perpetrators of hate and hold them accountable to the full extent of the law for their actions. Racism, homophobia have no place in Durham Region Column Succeeding as a university student Jenifer richardson Guest columnist Column Government should find housing for seniors who are already in Canada says reader To the editor: Re: ‘Steady rise of older Durham residents accessing shelter system,’ news, Aug. 24 Our provincial and federal governments are spending millions on permanent hous- ing for all the illegal immigrants coming into Canada and are bending over backwards to do so. So then why aren’t they doing the same for the Canadian senior citizens who need housing? There are a great number of senior citi- zens who are struggling to survive, but they are put on the back burner so we can take care of all the illegal immigrants first.

SPONSOREDBY: www.paintsquad.ca Letters to the editor Rather than renaming schools, consider what to name new schools in the future To the editor: I agree with Premier Kathleen Wynne that the Elementary Teacher’s Federa- tion of Ontario (ETFO) was “coming from a good place” when it moved to rename buildings named after Sir John A. Mac- donald. Much more attention needs to be paid to relationships — both historical and current — among Indigenous nations and the Canadian government, and the Canadian government ought to accord the same respect to Indigenous nations as it does to Canada’s other allies. I also agree with her that ETFO “missed the mark.” Macdonald achieved great things. We honour the good he did when we name things after him and raise monuments to him. We should contin- ue to do so. I was never taught that we should condone the way he undermined Canada’s Indigenous allies. The statues and school names aren’t about that. If they were, I would be in agreement with ETFO’s motion. Rather than renaming anything or pulling down statues of other important historical figures like Edward Cornwallis, we can set our minds on the next monu- ment and the next school naming. As much as I admire Macdonald, I would love to see new schools named after Louis Riel and others who challenged Mac- donald’s government over policies that were wrong. I’d love to see a new mon- ument to Donald Marshall Jr. raised in Halifax. Right beside the statue of Corn- wallis would be a good spot for it. Mac- donald and Riel — both great men, both flawed. If we limit ourselves to honouring the good achievements only of those who never made any bad decisions, our list of acceptable school names gets pretty short or kind of bland.W.R. Myers Pickering Changing a name of a school does not alter Canada’s history To the editor: Re: ‘Teachers call for Pickering’s Sir John A. Macdonald P.S. be renamed, saying first PM committed ‘genocide’’, news, Aug. 24 I can’t believe that the Elemen- tary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario (ETFO) would consider changing the name of the Sir John A. Macdonald schools! ETFO Presi- dent David Mastin is right about one thing, you can’t “erase his- tory” because chang- ing a name of a build- ing or street/highway does NOT change an event. Sir John A was as much as part of Canada’s history as the ETFO is a part of Ontario’s. If you were granted this wish, what would you recommend next? Change everything Conservative? Tear up the railroads across our coun- try? Burn all the $10 bills? If the ETFO really wants to be upset, consider the consequences of Pierre Elliot Trudeau creating the Charter of Rights. That has had a greater impact on all Canadians. For example, even air safety has been endangered because it might inflict on some ONE person’s “right” to not have the image of his/her eyes recorded by Canada Customs. Whatever your next plan is, please don’t take Christ out of Christmas! Carol King Pickering GIVEWHEREYOULIVE Designate Durham and your donation will impact the lives of thousands in Durham Region.

Global Traffic Group is offering to provide its traffic safety services at no cost to munici- palities, company CEO David Steer said dur- ing the Sept. 11 meeting of the board. The company makes its money by taking a share of fines paid by drivers upon conviction, Steer said. The company deploys lightweight camer- as that take high-definition images proving a speeding infraction has occurred, Steer said. The evidence compiled is so convincing that drivers rarely fight tickets in court, he said. “People can see the video,” Steer said. “A picture is worth 1,000 words.” The company’s technology can be adapt- ed to nab drivers for other bad behaviour including red light and stop sign running and distracted driving, Steer said, noting the company typically targets community safety zones, such as those near schools. “The success rate in school zones is dra- matic,” he said. “Local residents typically learn within six months.” Board member Bill McLean, a Pickering councillor, said the technology may be more appropriate for residential streets than regional arteries, where police enforcement is more effective. “We’re not out to make money. We want to change people’s driving habits,” McLean said. Board members voted to refer the infor- mation to local municipal councils.

August also saw a 16.2% increase in the number of new listings in Durham (1,497), compared to the 1,288 new listings reported in August 2016. “We continue to experience a healthy balanced market,” said Bouma. “The average house price in August in Durham is $587,172, which is down 16.5% from the highs reached in April, but slightly higher (3%) than the previous month of $569,748 and an 8.3% increase over the same period last year. “Home ownership continues to be a good investment,” said Bouma. “It re- mains the only investment that you can live in, raise your family and make memories, while ensuring a nice return over time.” He added, “Durham Re- gion continues to be a great place to buy, offering some of the best real estate value in the GTA.” Durham REALTORS®, We Work Where You Live.

The 22-year-old gave birth to her now one- year-old daughter on the same day she final- ly entered WINGS, the only maternity home in Durham for pregnant women fleeing abuse. Cassie’s story is a particularly horrific, but unfortunately familiar one that Marion Coz- ens, the self-titled house mother of WINGS, sees. Cozens estimates that 90 per cent of the 66 women who have been in WINGS care have fled domestic abuse. It was this April when 27-year-old Ajax woman Arianna Goberdhan was killed. She was nine-months pregnant. Her husband, Nicholas Tyler Baig, has been charged with first-degree murder. One in 10 women facing spousal abuse report it occurred during pregnancy, per a Stats Canada report in 2009. “It places women at a greater risk,” McCor- mack explained, stating that an already vola- tile partner may become more abusive. There is a competition for attention between mom and the fetus, and the obvi- ous added stress and worries of having a new baby, she said. An abusive partner might overly criticize a pregnant woman for weight gain — even though healthy pregnant women on average gain 25 to 35 pounds to support the baby’s growth — or chastise her for her lack of endurance during pregnancy. “It unfortunately creates a situation for more verbal and psychological abuse,” McCor- mack said. There are a number of supports for women who are pregnant and facing distress or domestic violence types of situations. There are four shelters in the region: the Denise House in Oshawa; Herizon House in Ajax; Bethesda House of Mercy in Clarington and the YWCA in Oshawa, all of which take women with or without children. Rose of Durham assists young and soon-to-be par- ents, specifically women 25 and under and men 30 and under, and provides counselling and support. For pregnant women in domestic violence situations who choose not to keep the child, referrals for private adoption or public adop- tion through the Durham Children’s Aid Society (CAS) can be made. Any referrals for abortion services need to go all the way to Toronto, McCormack said. That trip can be difficult, especially for many women fleeing an abusive situation as they often have little financial means or ways of getting all the way to Toronto. A number of organizations try to offer support along with prenatal classes. Dur- ham Region public health nurse Deb Jules said they offer the Healthy Babies Healthy Children prenatal class, which touches on healthy relationships as well. The program team can also make referrals to other sup- port programs, like CAREA, DRIVEN or to the Durham CAS prenatal team. They can also help expectant moms find housing or safe shelter. The CAS prenatal team is a proactive resource that aims to help and support preg- nant women who have no other children. Of the 100 cases they take on each year, a great majority who seek help are facing domestic abuse, said Jennifer Beattie, one of the pre- natal support program workers. WINGS Maternity Home is the only dedi- cated maternity home in Durham. It can only take four women at a time, who will often stay up until their baby is six to eight months old. The wait list is currently 52 women. It is also founder Marion Cozens’ own home and is Christian-based, although Cozens stated they are inclusive of all faiths. As well, preg- nant women who go to WINGS must work toward their own success of either school- ing, career or getting their own independent home. Despite having helped 66 women (and 66 babies), Cozens said WINGS is not enough: there needs to be more good, safe places for expectant moms fleeing abuse in the region. For Cassie, she believes that everything she has now is due to WINGS. She lives with her daughter in subsidized housing and is study- ing in a legal administration program with the hopes of becoming a lawyer or a judge. In Durham Region, there are a number of agencies you can turn to for help: Durham CAS Prenatal Support Program: 905-433-1551; Luke’s Place (for legal support): 905-728- 0978; CAREA Community Health Centres: Oshawa: 905-723-0036, Ajax: 905-428-1212, Whitby: 905-723-0036; DRIVEN (only open Mondays): 905-432- 7233; WINGS Maternity Home: 289-314-2705; The Denise House: 905-728-7311; Bethesda House: 905-623-6050; Herizon House: 905-426-1064; Y’s WISH/YWCA: 905-576-2997; Durham Region Domestic Violence Sexual Assault Care Centre: 905-576-8711. — Elisabeth Pfeiffer is a local first-time mom and freelance journalist. She previously worked for the Windsor Star, Cornwall Stan- dard-Freeholder, Ottawa Sun and Hamilton Spectator. She loves comic books and hopes one day her son will share her passion for them.

I am often amazed by the soothing effect of being connected to nature. These anecdotal observations are sup- ported by a growing body of research that highlights the benefits of spend- ing more time in the outdoors. In fact, author Richard Louv suggests that peo- ple today are suffering from a nature def- icit and that the more high-tech our lives become, the more nature we need. In support of a fast-growing nature movement, I have complied a list of some terrific nature-based activities to inspire both children’s and adult’s engagement with the natural world. Nature activities: Nature hike: There are many ways to enhance the enjoyment for children while hiking. Walk like different animals during the hike, search for clues of crit- ters in the area or even take turns being the hike leader. Hiking is also a great opportunity to practice organization and preparedness. Have each person carry their own backpack filled with a drink and snack. Other items to consider are sunscreen, Band-Aids, compass or walk- ie-talkies. Take it outdoors: What is something you love to do that you normally do indoors? Could you do it outside? For me, I enjoy reading, practicing yoga and eating even more when I take it outdoors into nature. Some of the best tasting food has been eaten on picnic blankets, patios and park benches. Rock stacking: Collect a variety of rocks and stones with your child to explore, balance and stack. These stones sculp- tures are simple and beautiful land art. Rainy day painting: Yes, even on wet days you can explore nature! On a rainy day when there is no thunder or light- ening, dress appropriately and go out- side to explore the air, the sky, and the rain. Then place a piece of finger paint paper on the ground. Dab on a little bit of paint and watch as the raindrops cre- ate a rainy day painting. Oh! And before going inside, remember to splash in a puddle or two. Berry picking: Visit a local farm with "pick your own" options to experience the sweet taste of a fresh picked berry, still warm from the sunshine. Fill bas- kets with ripe strawberries, raspberries or blueberries. Prehistoric hockey: Provide children with sticks and pine cones or another natural "puck" and have an energetic game of prehistoric hockey. Spending time outdoors promotes an active life- style. Art in the park: Set up a still life with items found in nature. For example, a summer still life may include flowers, feathers, fresh picked berries, etc. Have a sketchbook, pencil crayons and magni- fying glasses by the display for an open- ended art exploration. Bird watching: In our backyard we set up a feeder which has a consistent buf- fet line of chickadees, robins, cardinals, sparrows, morning doves and even the odd chipmunk. Encourage wildlife into your outdoor space by adding native plants or a bird feeder. Natural sculptures: Pair natural ele- ments such as sticks, pine cones, acorns, flowers and leaves with play dough. Encourage children to use all of their senses as they create their unique sculp- tures Planned activities or spontaneous play, nature has so many gifts to offer. So step into the beautiful world outside your window, where plants grow and wonder blooms. — Sacha Farrell is a writer, yoga teacher and has worked in the field of early liter- acy and adult education for more than 12 years with the Ontario Early Years.

FOCUS ON FAMILY FOCUS ON SENIORS FOCUS ON HEALTH FOCUS ON FOOD & WINE Kids can build an elastic car Try this easy-to-make car project from Sci- entists in School and learn about kinetic and potential energy. What you will need: • One piece of plastic corrugated board • Plasticine or clay • Small cup • Scissors • Elastic • Duct tape • Two barbecue skewers What to do: 1. Trace four circles on the boxboard using a small upside down cup. Cut the circles out so that they can be used to create wheels. Find the centre and poke a hole in the middle of the circles using the skewers. 2. Cut a piece of corrugated plastic so that your car is the desired size. 3. Hold the plastic so that the ridges of corru- gate are left to right. In the middle of the back side, cut a rectangular notch that measures 3.5-by-4.5 centimetres. For better precision, have an adult use a box cutter to cut the cor- rugate. Keep the extra piece that you have just cut out. 4. Thread the skewer through one of the ridges at the back of the corrugated plastic. The skewer should be visible at the notch end. Repeat the process at the opposite end from the notch. 5. Using the extra piece of plastic corrugate, cut it into a one-by-1.5 centimetre piece. Cen- tre the skewer and tape this piece onto the exposed skewer. 6. Slide a wheel onto one of the skewers. Secure the wheel using a small amount of Plasticine on either side of the wheel. Repeat this with the other three wheels. Test to ensure that the taped piece of plastic on the skewer can rotate freely. 7. Tape the elastic at the front of the car, then stretch it over the tab on the skewer. Wind up the back wheels, then place the car on a flat surface and let it go. If your car does not move, try adding some clay or other weight to the car. What is happening? This experiment looks at potential and kinet- ic energy. By turning the skewer at the back of the car, we are winding the elastic band. The mechanical kinetic energy of the skewer’s motion transforms into stored potential elas- tic energy. When the elastic is released, the elastic potential energy is transformed into the mechanical kinetic energy of the moving car. Energy in a system is the sum of poten- tial and kinetic energy, and it is defined as the ability to do work. Potential energy is stored energy, while kinetic energy is energy at work. The amount the elastic is turned will impact the distance the car is able to travel. Extension 1. Have your kids/students try this experi- ment again, this time changing the type of elastic band or wheels. What combination creates a car that travels the greatest distance? — Scientists in School is a registered Cana- dian charity dedicated to igniting the spark of scientific curiosity in children during their elementary school years. The skills kids absorb in Scientists in School workshops are pertinent to the careers of tomorrow, includ- ing critical thinking, problem solving, com- munication, collaboration and more. Their vision is to have every Canadian child active- ly engaged in the seeing, doing and under- standing of science. Jason Liebregts / Metroland PICKERING — Melanie Woodward and Sylvia Deonarine demonstrated a project, an elastic-powered race car, that can be built out of common materials. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Se p t e m b e r 1 3 , 2 0 1 7 16 AP JUSTICE OF THE PEACE VACANCIESOntario Court of Justice COURT LOCATIONS: Barrie (1)Barrie (Bilingual-1)Brampton (3)Cornwall (1)Dryden (1) London (1)Oshawa (1)Ottawa (Bilingual-1)Peterborough (1)Sault Ste.
