Other times, she uses her skills to make them look positively ghoulish. Authors - who is a pro- fessor with the new cos- metics techniques and management program at Durham College - has spent the past 12 Halloween seasons turning people in- to ghouls, ghosts, witches and other terrifying crea- tures for Halloween Haunt at Canada's Wonderland. Zombies are her favou- rite. "I like using latex to build and create wounds, then airbrush on top," she says. "You get to be really creative." This year's Halloween Haunt, which wrapped up Oct. 31, featured more than 700 monsters as well as live shows, mazes and "scare zones" with names like "Wicked Hollow" and "The Plague." Over the years, Authors has watched it grow from a small event, with a handful of makeup artists and about 100 actors, to a large undertaking with 26 make- up artists transforming hundreds of faces each night. She has to work quickly, typically spending five to 15 minutes on an actor's makeup. "You need to multi- task," she says. Teaching at Durham College is the latest chal- lenge for Authors, who has worked in makeup for years doing everything from freelance appoint- ments, to special effects for TV and film, to working for big companies like Sepho- ra and Dior. She has also incorporat- ed makeup into work as an occupational therapist, teaching clients with disa- bilities or special needs how to apply makeup as a way of encouraging self- care and boosting confi- dence. Authors has been inter- ested in makeup from a young age. "I had bad skin growing up, I struggled with it. In high school, I started to get a little bit creative with makeup," she says. "It helped build my self confi- dence." Teaching in the cosmet- ics techniques and man- agement program at Dur- ham College is allowing her to share her wealth of knowledge with the next generation of makeup art- ists. The program, which launched this fall, covers everything from makeup application and technique, to marketing, customer service, product knowl- edge and colour theory. Authors says one of the most important lessons, is how makeup and beauty can impact a person's con- fidence and view of them- selves. "When you put on the right lip colour or help someone learn a tech- nique, it can make a differ- ence in their life and how they feel about them- selves," she says. "It's really rewarding." COMMUNITY THIS DURHAM COLLEGE PROF CREATES TERRIFYING MAKEUP LOOKS FOR HALLOWEEN HAUNT AT CANADA'S WONDERLAND Rachael Authors teaches in the Cosmetics Techniques and Management program at Durham College. She is also a special FX airbrush make-up artist for Halloween Haunt at Canada's Wonderland for the past 12 seasons.

We truly appreciate how important small busi- nesses are to our thriving economy and community." The Pickering Markets won in the one-nine em- ployees category. "There seemed to be end- less numbers of patrons, coming forward to sing the praises of this business, a community mainstay for decades. They have created a welcoming environment, and prove they care that customers are just as happy with their products once they get home as they are at the cash register," said AP- BOT executive director Ni- cole Gibson. The Pickering Markets also exemplifies the multi- cultural makeup of Dur- ham, and are community stewards, said Gibson. Ontario's largest indoor marketplace has been in business for 40 years and a member of the board of trade for 10 years, but won this award for the first time. "The APBOT is impor- tant to the Pickering Mar- kets because it truly encom- passes what the markets represents. Co-operative and supportive work with local, small businesses, who strive to support each other and grow together as well as individually," said Erik Tamm, market man- ager. "The Markets have been members of the BOT for over a decade, however we've really started to get involved in the last couple of years. The networking opportunity, ability to edu- cate members on how we can help grow their busi- ness, and creating partner- ships in the community are all great advantages to be- ing members of the board of trade." The Markets has been nominated three times for a BEA, but with this being the first time winning, the business is thrilled. "We've undergone some major changes here at the Markets in the past three years, and have a complete- ly new management team and staff, so this is truly a recognition of everyone's hard work and it's also vali- dation that we continue to move in the right direc- tion," Tamm said. Housing 400 small busi- nesses, the Pickering Mar- kets prides itself on sup- porting local business. Tamm said fighting against E-commerce com- panies and big box stores has become a strong issue when it comes to entrepre- neurship and being able to operate as a small business. "It is evident more than ever how important shop- ping local and supporting small business is. When you shop at the Markets, not only are you supporting small businesses, but you're helping out neigh- bours, friends, families, and entrepreneurs from your own community. We look forward to continuing to give these businesses a home, and supporting Dur- ham region's philanthropic groups." The Markets also has a community-based focus. "The Pickering Markets' focus on community is something that stems from within our staff," Tamm said. "We all have ties to our great community, and are all very involved with phil- anthropic work on our own time, so bringing it and en- compassing it within the business was an easy choice for us. We continue to pro- vide space to not-for-profits and charity groups to fun- draise, raise awareness and demonstrate their organi- zations, we donate heavily and sponsor local teams, and we continue to be strong active members in our community." The Business Excel- lence Award winner in the 40-plus employees catego- ry, Veridian Connections, has more than 220 employ- ees, and 121-thousand cli- ents, with a goal to provide reliable, efficient and sus- tainable service, while pro- moting economic growth in the areas they serve. Gibson said Veridian is enthusiastic about innova- tion, making significant im- provements to the technol- ogy used to inform both its crews and their clients of is- sues as that arise. In addition to tonight's award, this company has been recognized countless times for its outstanding achievement, for their com- mitment to the safety of their staff, the quality of their service and for their environmental leadership. "This award is a testa- ment to the hard work of our amazing employees and their strong, ongoing commitment to Veridian's business operations," said company president and CEO Michael Angemeer. "Veridian is more than an electricity distributor - we are a dedicated partner that is committed to participat- ing in the communities we serve and partnering with organizations whose needs we can address and whose expertise we can learn from." -With files from Keith Gilligan COMMUNITY Continued from page 1 VERIDIAN CONNECTIONS HONOURED WITH BUSINESS AWARD Willow Wolla, 2, was dressed as a pig during a Halloween event at The Pickering Markets Oct. 28.

BUSINESS NEW HEAD NAMED TO AJAX-PICKERING BOARD OF TRADE Nicole Gibson has been named the executive director of the Ajax-Pickering Board of Trade. She has been serving as the interim executive director since May. Gibson has been with the board for almost six years. Ajax-Pickering Board of Trade photo DURHAM - A prosecutor has called for a 10 to 12-year prison sentence for a wom- an who has pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the 2015 killing of a beloved senior in Pickering. John Murray was a "good Samaritan" who came to the aid of Anesa Satar, on- ly to be brutally murdered by the woman he'd been try- ing to help, prosecutor Ker- ri-Ann Kennedy said during a sentencing hearing Fri- day, Oct. 26, in Oshawa. "He offered her friend- ship and support," Kennedy told Superior Court Justice Jocelyn Speyer as a court- room full of Murray's griev- ing family and friends looked on. "He was a loving man, and he was loved." "Ms. Satar ended one life, but she has devastated many more," Kennedy add- ed. The judge has reserved a decision on sentence. Satar, 49, was originally charged with second-de- gree murder in the killing of Murray, 80, whose body was found in her Memory Lane house on the evening of Sept. 1, 2015, after she called 911. Court has heard Satar was in a drunken rage when she launched a vicious and protracted attack on the 80- year-old Murray. The attack included Satar beating the senior with nearby objects including a phone charger and a wooden stick, court heard. Murray, who lived near- by on Everton Street, was a well-known and well-liked resident of the neighbour- hood. He was often seen walking in the neighbour- hood and stopped frequent- ly to talk with residents, sometimes handing out pamphlets with a Christian theme, residents said at the time of his death. Shortly before he was killed, Murray had be- friended Satar and on Aug. 28, 2015, agreeing to act as her surety to bail her out of jail, where she was being held on charges including assault causing bodily harm. In April of that year, Satar was arrested on alle- gations she had attacked her boyfriend with a pair of scissors, according to court records. Satar, who has a lengthy criminal record including numerous acts of violence, chafed under Murray's ef- forts to provide the supervi- sion his role as surety re- quired of him, court heard. On the day of the attack, Satar was drinking heavily, which often led her to expe- rience mood swings and act out violently. Kennedy said Satar knew her substance abuse "would lead to poten- tial episodes of violence on her behalf." "And yet, indifferent to that risk, she indulged her- self," Kennedy said. After the attack on Mur- ray, Satar slept and, upon waking, went to a mall, court heard. She made a number of calls, including one to the boyfriend she'd been charged with assault- ing, and finally dialed 911 on the evening of Sept. 1, 2015. Satar repeatedly lied to police investigating Mur- ray's death, trying to divert suspicion away from her- self, Kennedy said. "Ms. Satar's primary in- terest throughout this time was herself," the prosecutor said. During Friday's hearing, Justice Speyer heard state- ments from Murray's fami- ly and friends, who de- scribed a kind, loving man who adored his family and doled out "30-minute hugs." "I met him when I was 16," said daughter-in-law Brenda Murray. "I found him to be consistently gen- tle, soft-spoken, kind, gener- ous and caring." "It is still difficult to be- lieve he could be so cruelly treated at the end of his life," Murray said. In addition to their grief, Murray's family is grap- pling with feelings of frus- tration and anger about a justice system they feel put him in harm's way by allow- ing an 80-year-old man to be named surety for a person with multiple convictions for violent offences. They are also struggling with the negotiations that led to Sa- tar's murder charge being reduced to manslaughter. "I can only say the way this case has been handled is shenanigans," said Mur- ray's grandson, also named John. "I ask myself what caused a good man to die so gruesomely," he said. "Ani- sa is the monster; she's what nightmares are made of." Ken Thomas, a close friend of Murray's, turned to glance at Satar in the pris- oner's dock as he made a statement to the court. "I know with his last breath (John) would have said, I forgive you. That's the kind of man he was," he said. "I forgive you," Thomas told Satar. "I hope one day you will reach out to God and ask him to forgive you. "Because he will."

OPINION TO LEARN HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR OWN CONTENT VISIT DURHAMREGION.COM LETTERS & COMMENTARY I always get a bit of a kick out of people who an- grily push back against "rights" movements. The ones who noisily com- plain about LGBTQ, In- digenous issues, #MeToo, Black Lives Matter and of course all of those damned freeloaders fleeing mur- derous regimes and cul- tural genocide. I say, I get a bit of a kick out of them ... not a big kick. Mostly I just find them irritating and I wish they would go away. I'm willing to wager a substantial sum that most, if not all, of these same people have never spent a day being perse- cuted, compromised or frightened simply because of the colour of their skin, or their gender or political forces beyond their con- trol. These are people, who by nothing more than luck of birth, have lived lives of privilege. Lives where their basic rights have never been chal- lenged in the least. They take their safety, their health and their well-be- ing for granted. These peo- ple have never been terri- fied to walk to their car in an unlit parking lot. They've never had to wor- ry about leaving an unat- tended drink on a bar while they went to the washroom. They've never been bullied or beaten be- cause they were different. They could sit anywhere on the bus and eat and drink in any restaurant they chose. They could marry the person they fell in love with and live hap- pily ever after. So, what I can't figure out is, given all of those perks, why are so many of these privileged people angry? Why, instead of gleefully counting their myriad blessings, do they waste so much precious time and energy shouting, whining and spreading ig- norance and hate? Why would any sane man, for example, go to the time and effort of creating a "Straight Pride Flag?" Why indeed, if he weren't badly twisted up inside and completely ignorant of the privileges he has taken for granted since his proudly straight birth? This world is not short of issues all of us could stand to raise our voices and fists against, but none of these things are those. And if someone of privi- lege tries to tell you other- wise, kindly tell them to shut the hell up and read a history book. Neil Crone, actor, com- ic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this col- umn TIRED OF PEOPLE OF PRIVILEGE COLUMNIST NEIL CRONE FINDS THESE TYPES OF PEOPLE IGNORANT AND MISGUIDED NEIL CRONE Column A MINORITY VOTED BUT A MAJORITY WILL COMPLAIN TO THE EDITOR: In the wake of the recent municipal elections held in Ontario this week, I'd sug- gest that it's worthwhile mentioning the abysmal, disgraceful turnout of eli- gible voters to exercise their right to select the leaders of the community. I'll stick with Claring- ton, though the numbers were consistently dismal throughout the Region of Durham and elsewhere. The Mayor of Clarington took 68 per cent of the votes cast for that position, which looks like domina- tion, a veritable political sweep. The people who ac- tually turned out to vote, however, which would have only taken a few mo- ments on a beautiful day (even though advance polls were also clearly available to make things even sim- pler) was a miserable, pal- try 26.62 per cent, accord- ing to official records. This means our mayor achieved 68 per cent of 26.62 per cent support of eligible voters - or 17.03 per cent. That's it. He was the winner! Almost three out of four voters didn't bother to have their voices heard. Here's what will be 100 per cent, though - com- plaining, in the case of Cla- rington, about, among oth- er issues, excessive growth, intolerable traffic and taxes. The vast major- ity of the people concerned about those matters couldn't be bothered voting when they had the chance. To them I say be silent, take what you get without com- plaint and caste your fates to the winds. In the mainstream To- ronto media today, the turn- out of 41 per cent there was considered to be embar- rassing but it was marvel- lously successful in com- parison to Durham Region. LARRY WOOD BOWMANVILLE DOUG FORD'S 'FOR THE PEOPLE' CLAIM RINGS HOLLOW FOR THIS READER TO THE EDITOR: Did anyone really be- lieve that Doug Ford and his cronies were going to be on the side of the working people of Ontario? They have proven their true col- ours while supporting big business and their friends. I just saw a clip where they all started clapping when they passed the mo- tion to keep the minimum wage to $14 an hour. They say it will go up to $15 an hour in 2026. This, from people who earn $135,000 per year + a gold plated pension. Ford has also just given two patronage packages to two of his cohorts.

You’ll be surprised how stylish and inviting these fin- ishes touches make your place feel. Sleek window treatments. From dramatic floor-to-ceiling curtains to plantation shutters, you can showcase your style and personality and make any room feel “finished” with your win- dow coverings. For a polished look, choose custom designs from Hunter Douglas that help you achieve privacy, light control and even protect your belongings from damaging UV rays. Layered accessories. Whether it’s a smaller space like your entryway or a bathroom, or a focal point of your home like the kitchen or living room, every room needs accessories for that touch of personality. Potted plants can add life and energy, while a textured throw rug can create depth and warmth. Feel free to get creative and curate an eclectic mix of items that speak to you. Layer accessories in odd-numbered groupings for a design- er finish. Overstuffed pillows. Give your living room a more high-end, luxurious look by staying away from standard pillow sizes that scream store-bought. Instead, search for large, oversized pillow covers and overfill them with inserts one size up. This will make give your couch and living room seem plush and expensive. Interesting walls. Builder basic walls in neutrals are boring and impersonal. But that doesn’t mean you need to paint your walls in bold hues. Trying creating interest and draw the eye with pattern and texture. Go for a classic architectural aesthetic with some crisp crown moulding, or some cozy cottage vibes with modern, distressed wood panels. dur h a m r e g i o n . c o m New s A d v e r t i s e r | We d n e s d a y , O c t o b e r 3 1 , 2 0 1 8 | 10 VIEW OUR INTERACTIVE 3D MATTERPORT VIRTUAL TOURS AT GETMESOLD.CA. ww w . g e t m e s o l d . c a w w w . g e t m e s o l d . c a w w w . g e t m e s o l d . c a ww w . g e t m e s o l d . c a w w w . g e t m e s o l d . c a w w w . g e t m e s o l d . c a www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca www.getmesold.ca Dillon and Susan Smith 905•728•1600 www.getmesold.ca thesmithsare@sympatico.ca *Based on RE Stats forFirms in 2017* Real estate FiRm FoR Combined listing and buyeRsales* in duRham RegionDillon Smith - Sales Representative Susan Smith - Promotion & Design Consultant Beautiful Quality Built "City Home" Within Minutes Walk To Both Public & Separate Schools, Parks, Transit & Shopping.

HA R W O O D A V E . S . STATION ST. DURHAM - The week of Oct. 15 to 19 is Adult Day Program Awareness Week and the region wants to remind caregivers of services it offers at three sites. Durham Region's health department programs provide supervised therapeutic, social and recreational programming in a safe setting for adults living with cognitive impairments, including Alzheimer's dis- ease and similar conditions. The regional programs are offered at three locations - Hillsdale Estates and the Lakeview Manor Beaverton and Port Per- ry sites. The Hillsdale ADP operates Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The Lakeview Beaverton site ADP runs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The Lakeview Port Perry site ADP is on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Hillsdale Estates is 590 Oshawa Blvd. N. in Oshawa. The Lakeview Beaverton site is at 133 Main St. N. while the Port Perry site is located at the Port Perry Hospital, 451 Paxton St. in Port Perry. The aim of the programs is to assist cli- ents achieving and maintaining their highest level of functioning. The programs also offer a break for caregivers and family members, so they can enjoy personal time while professional and experienced staff care for their loved one. For more information about the Re- gion's ADP, visit www.durham.ca. THINGS TO DO DURHAM OFFERS ADULT DAY PROGRAMS AT 3 LOCATIONS DURHAM - Every month, about 2.5 million spam emails are sent to Ontario Power Genera- tion and about 50,000 intrusions are attempted on its computers. So, OPG has to have a very robust cyberse- curity system to go along with constant train- ing and monitoring to prevent a breach into its computers and devices. During a meeting of the Pickering Commu- nity Advisory Council on Tuesday, Oct. 16, Ian Roberts, the chief information officer for OPG, said the company "has a complex network. There are 80 facilities and 20,000 digital assets." The frequency of "cyber attacks is explod- ing exponentially," Roberts said, noting orga- nized crime makes about $1 billion a year from cyber crimes. "The cost to companies worldwide is $3 tril- lion annually. Cyber crime is a big business with big dollars," Roberts said at the meeting, held at the Pickering nuclear station. "There's a growing trend to go after utili- ties," he said, noting hackers knocked down a power grid for several days in Ukraine that serves 250,000. There are four different groups OPG has to worry about - nation states, organized crime, hacktivists and insiders. Depending on the group, their aim could be political gain, eco- nomic gain or societal gain. Roberts noted organized crime would be af- ter economic gain. An insider could be an employee being co- erced or by accident. With the threat growing, it's important to "protect assets that operate your plant. That's why all the regulators globally are increasing the standard." OPG's cybersecurity program uses a 'de- fence in depth' philosophy with cybersecurity. It's the same philosophy the company has for nuclear safety, he noted. "We've had it at OPG for a long time. You don't have just one barrier. It's harder to break through multiple barriers," he said, adding the barriers are constantly monitored and im- proved. One aim is to determine as soon as possible if someone has breached a system. "People are one of our biggest cybersecurity assets and they protect us from an attack," Rob- erts said. "We have to be active, sharing infor- mation and intelligence." Strategies are put into place to "do the best to not let an adversary get in," he said. "But, they will, so we have to find them in the quick- est possible time." Another aim is to correct the situation in the most cost-effective manner possible, he added. "The job is never over in cybersecurity. It's always ongoing and evolving. The technology has to keep in step with the bad people out there," Roberts said. Sharing information with others is impor- tant, so when someone is breached, the others can learn from it, he noted. OPG doesn't allow employees to bring in their own mobile devices, he said. "All devices are OPGs and all are encrypt- ed," he added. He noted information technology devices and operating technology devices are on sepa- rate networks that don't connect. If a device goes out to a supplier, it's inspect- ed when it returns, he added. OPG has a cybersecurity operations centre that is constantly monitoring systems and em- ployees are trained what to look for and what to avoid, Roberts stated. "All this is about augmenting people," he said. "You have to be constantly testing your as- sumptions." OPG also runs what are called Red Hat Ex- ercises, in which "ethical hackers" are brought in and told to try and break into a system. They also let the hackers in and see what they can do. "It's part of constantly challenging your- self," Roberts said. The company also takes part in internation- al drills. "It's all part of a culture of practising, practising, practising." Training employees on what to look for is important, he noted, because "95 per cent of all breeches can be attributed to employee action. Everyone has to take cybersecurity awareness training.

DURHAM - A made-in- Durham solution is being considered to better protect pensioners with under- funded pension plans, from Durham MP Erin O'Toole. "If you're retired, you're already on a fixed income. If you're going to lose 20 to 30 per cent of your pension it's a huge lifestyle change," said O'Toole. The bankruptcies of companies with underfund- ed employee pension plans - from Nortel to Sears, and al- most General Motors in 2008 - have showed how vul- nerable thousands of Cana- dians are in their retire- ment. O'Toole said his bill is intended to bring more fi- nancial certainty and fair- ness to these pensioners. In his first Private Mem- bers Bill (C-405), O'Toole is suggesting amendments to the Pension Benefits Stan- dards Act, 1985 and the Companies' Creditors Ar- rangement Act. If passed, Bill C-405 would do three things: One; give the pension ad- ministrators more flexibili- ty in preserving remaining pension funds and enhanc- ing the returns for pension- ers. The changes would au- thorize the administrator of an underfunded pension plan, in certain situations, to amend the plan or to transfer part of the assets or liabilities of the pension plan to another pension plan. "This will allow adminis- trators to see if the stranded fund can be taken up by an- other pension plan," said O'Toole. Two; the bill would limit the large executive reten- tion payments made in insolvencies that dwindle resources. O'Toole said big, grossly unfair payouts, bleed the company and taint the trust of employees. "That promotes fairness in a big way," said O'Toole. Part three of the bill would promote greater col- laboration in addressing these risks between all lev- els of government, and pri- vate pension companies. "It's something that will make real progress and will preserve more pension se- curity," said O'Toole. O'Toole said in his six years as MP, the issue of pension security has been raised repeatedly by voters in Durham - first with a group of General Motors re- tirees. "I wanted to show con- stituents I'm listening," said O'Toole, who has been re- searching the issue for years. He added that there is much work being done by groups advocating for pen- sioners and raising the risks of underfunded pen- sion plans - including the Canadian Association of Retired Persons (CARP). CARP and its supporters are advocating for the feder- al government to amend the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act and the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act to give pensioners super- priority. O'Toole said some advocates don't believe the proposed private members bill goes far enough. Howev- er, they are happy to see the issue being debated and pol- icy proposals being put for- ward. "This is in the public in- terest. I chose an approach where I hope nobody feels they can't keep advocating for what they want to do," said O'Toole. The bill is up for its sec- ond reading in the House of Commons. A vote is expec- ted on the private members bill in late-November. If it passes the second reading, the issue would go to com- mittee for consideration. "I am an opposition MP. I know the odds of this pass- ing are remote, but if it rais- es debate, I've done my job," said O'Toole.
