O'Connell is al- ready making plans to forge ahead and continue her work for the riding, with key issues in- cluding affordability and the en- vironment at the top of the list. "Previous to the election we were working on issues around young people graduating with enormous student debt, a lack of access to housing that is actually affordable and then during the campaign we heard from a lot of seniors who don't see their pen- sions increasing, but costs are, these are crucial issues," O'Con- nell said of her government's fo- cus moving forward. "In our platform we put for- ward changes and increases to the Canada Child Benefit and other measures to assist Canadi- ans who need that extra help. I think these are going to be the ar- eas and issues that take centre stage." She pointed to the Liberal's National Housing Strategy as a potential tool to further open the housing market to Canadians who are finding it increasingly unaffordable, by helping to sup- port the construction of more rental and low-cost units and supporting overall diversity in the market. "I think for a long time there's been this idea of 'well, if you have single detached and then town- homes, the townhomes will be cheaper,' but the reality is they may be cheaper but they're still not affordable," O'Connell said. "I think that's something we have to look at in terms of how do we work with our partners, whether its provincially, regionally or at the municipal level, to increase true affordability." While the Liberal's minority standing may make it difficult to forge ahead on certain agenda items, O'Connell sees it as a plus for one of the election's most divi- sive issues, the environment and climate change. "A minority is probably not a bad thing in this sense because when it comes to dealing with cli- mate change we need to be seri- ously looking at all good ideas no matter what party it comes from," she said, noting the Liber- al's climate plan, which targets net zero carbon increased by 2050, will require "a lot of work." "We need to create a new econ- omy, but we need to maintain in- dustry and people's jobs while we transition to that economy," she said. "Having input from different parties will be a benefit in my opinion because this can't be a partisan issue, and I think Cana- dians would agree. The fact this became such a big issue is great because it sends a clear message to all parties that Canadians are watching, and they want real ac- tion." For local issues such as the long-controversial Pickering air- port, voters can likely expect sta- tus quo. "Our government position has remained the same that we wouldn't build an airport without a strong business case," she said, but noted the lands could be looked at in a new light with the new focus on environmental and climate issues. "If there is a serious conversa- tion about an airport it would be pretty hard to have that conversa- tion and not look at it through a climate lens," she said, but didn't see any real action on local pro- posals to locate an environmen- tal or agricultural centre on the lands. "I think at the end of the day all those things will have to be looked at and considered with what to do with these lands in the future. If it's not meant to be an airport, or whatever the case may be, that conversation would have to happen and everything would be considered, but it's too early to speculate in terms of what the next steps would be." For local voters, O'Connell emerged as the clear choice with 51 per cent of the vote, easily de- feating her next closest rival, Conservative Cyma Musarat, who collected 29 per cent of the vote.

THE 2019 VOLVOXC60 DURHAM - The strategy is in place, and now the work of imple- menting it is underway. Durham Region council ap- proved a broadband strategy in February, and recently Raiz Raz- vi was hired to roll it out. "Those who don't have cover- age presently will see coverage in those communities, signifi- cantly better services. Those ar- eas that already have coverage, but it might be subpar or they may not be able to do all their business, they will also see sig- nificant improvement in the bandwidth they get," Razvi said of the impact the strategy will have for residents, businesses and institutions. "The region realizes the im- portance, the significance of broadband as a crucial piece to boost the economy and increase competitiveness and also to re- tain and attract businesses. Over- all, it will increase the quality of place," he said. "We need to im- prove the state of our broadband to deliver on these results. It's not historically been a top priority, but it has increased in the last one to two years." The five lakeshore communi- ties, for the most part, are well covered, he noted. "But, the further north you go, you get less coverage. The infra- structure just isn't there. We need to improve the infrastructure throughout the region," he said. That can include wireless technologies, telephone lines and cable, but "ultimately fibre (op- tics) is the fastest technology to deliver to the customer. Eventu- ally, the goal is (to get) fibre to most of the region," he said. "We understand that cannot happen overnight. We're looking at ways to improve the coverage." The aim is to "serve those dark spots we have today using some kind of method of access," Razvi said. "Eventually, we'll get to fi- bre everywhere." Until fibre is extended across the region, other methods will be used to deliver internet service, he said. According to the strategy doc- ument, fibre optics can process up to 1,500 megabytes of data per second, and cable can do 1,000 MBps. Dial-up can do only 150 MBps. The vision for the strategy is: "Durham's residents, businesses, and institutions will have access to fast, reliable and affordable broadband services so that they may fully participate, compete and thrive in the 21st century." The strategy noted, "There is no one standard definition for 'broadband.' Simply put, broad- band means internet access that is always on, available at higher speeds than traditional dial-up service, and capable of transmit- ting large amounts of data very quickly." A statement by regional Chairman John Henry and chief administrative officer Elaine Baxter-Trahair noted: "Fast, ef- fective broadband infrastructure is now vital for the Region's suc- cess in delivering our services and interacting with residents. It is also an essential tool for citi- zens to participate in their com- munity, and for businesses to reach and respond to their cus- tomers. Reliable digital connec- tivity also is critical to support economic development and at- tract new investment to Dur- ham." Currently, the existing condi- tions in Durham "reflect those of many other jurisdictions in Onta- rio and Canada. This includes a strong divide in service quality and service options between ur- ban and rural areas. In addition, the affordability of broadband is an issue for certain businesses and residents," the strategy not- ed. Urban areas generally have high speeds and a variety of inter- net service providers, while rural areas have slower speeds and lim- ited service options. Broadband is "very much" about economic development, Razvi said. "Having good broadband ac- cess across the region will really boost the increased competitive- ness of the region," he noted. We want to have service to attract business and retain them over here." In his approximately two months on the job, Razvi said, there's been a "lot of time been spent talking to stakeholders. It's a very large ecosystem. There are a lot of lower-tier municipalities, school boards, health care." There's a mix of small and large players providing broad- band, he said. "We want to collaborate and co-ordinate activities with all of them. We're talking to them to un- derstand what their points are," he said. DURHAM HAS STRATEGY THAT AIMS NOT TO BYTE Riaz Razvi, broadband specialist, has been hired by Durham Region to implement a new broadband strategy. The mandate is to get high-speed internet to under-served areas in Durham, mainly in the north. Sabrina Byrnes/Torstar KEITH GILLIGAN kgilligan@durhamregion.com NEWS 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 | Th u r s d a y , O c t o b e r 2 4 , 2 0 1 9 | 6 DURHAM - Ajax track- and-field coach Randy Brookes feels a two-year ban handed to him by Ath- letics Ontario is too harsh, but Paul Osland suggests, if anything, it may be too le- nient. Osland, the chief execu- tive officer for Athletics Ontario (AO), spoke Tues- day, Oct. 15, about the deci- sion, posted online late last week, to serve Brookes with a minimum two-year suspension as a member of AO and from all AO activ- ities. Brookes, the 42-year-old head coach of the Gazelles athletics club - which serves Durham region and the Greater Toronto Area - was given the suspension after an independent hear- ing into two complaints concerning harassment of an AO member. The panel determined the complaints were valid, based on a sexual relation- ship between Brookes and an adult athlete while he was acting as the athlete's coach. "There's obviously an imbalance of power when it comes to athlete-coach re- lationships, and they're for- bidden," Osland said. "Our codes of conduct are very clear; our rules are very clear about transgressions of harassment. "I think, in all honesty, Randy's is a very lenient sentence as related to ha- rassment punishments out there," he said. Brookes, who is married and has two children in the club, believes the punish- ment is unjust, based on his contention the relationship was consensual for a period of more than three years. He said the complainant was of a similar age to him and was a coach, more so than an athlete with the club. "I'm suspended for hav- ing a consensual relation- ship," he said when contact- ed Tuesday morning. "There's lots of stuff going on, and it's all to do with a scorned person. That's it. "I have nothing to hide," he added. "I had an affair, it didn't work out with this lady, and this is the fallout." The complainant was contacted by the News Ad- vertiser but chose not to comment and did not wish to be identified. Brookes said he planned to appeal the decision, and in the meantime, was hop- ing a separate club would be established so his AO athletes could continue with other Gazelles coach- es. He is also looking into getting an exemption so he is allowed to watch his chil- dren compete. He said he has received support from most of the parents in the club and will continue working with ele- mentary-school children not part of AO. At the conclusion of the two-year suspension peri- od, his coaching member- ship may be reinstated if he has not violated the terms of the sanctions, and con- tingent upon compliance to certain requirements, in- cluding the completion of courses and demonstration that he understands his wrongdoing and changes his behaviour accordingly. Osland admitted that the complainant was "un- der a separate, unrelated investigation that is not re- lated to her relationship with Randy" but said that the name was being with- held in order to protect the victim in this case. "We have a responsibili- ty, and our responsibility is that we have to deal with it and that we have to protect people so that other people won't be afraid to come for- ward," he said. "I think the only thing that's really, really impor- tant here is that we're in a world where we have to have zero tolerance for any kind of harassment breach- es and issues like this," he said. "People have to be held accountable, other- wise we're never going to break the cycle."

Const. Ian Cameron was on track to complete a two- year probationary period after being disciplined for that incident, when he was again suspended from duty, hearing officer Dennis Poole said in a decision ren- dered Friday, Oct. 18. Poole ruled that Cameron will re- main a second-class consta- ble. Cameron, who is facing dismissal in relation to a separate disciplinary tribu- nal hearing, was not pre- sent for the ruling. He did not fully participate in the tribunal process relating to his demotion, Poole noted. A Durham officer since 2004, Cameron was charged with assault and weapons offences after a confronta- tion with a fellow officer at the Bowmanville police sta- tion in September 2009. The two officers engaged in a physical tussle during which Cameron pulled his gun and pressed it against the other officer's stomach. Cameron pleaded guilty to a criminal charge of as- sault in 2010 and was grant- ed an absolute discharge, in part because of a diagnosis of PTSD. During a Police Services Act tribunal that followed that court process, lawyers for the police service sought Cameron's dismissal, a measure rejected in a 2014 ruling by hearing officer Terrence Kelly. Citing the officer's history of PTSD - and his potential for reha- bilitation - Kelly ordered that Cameron be demoted from first-class constable to second class for two years, a period during which his performance would be closely monitored. Cameron's return to du- ty was for a time successful, Poole noted Friday. "It appeared at this point that Constable Cameron was doing well," said Poole, a retired police chief from the Chatham-Kent service. That changed in Septem- ber 2015, when Cameron was arrested for drinking and driving while on the job. The criminal charge result- ed in a suspension from du- ty and, the police service as- serted, a failure to complete the two-year probationary period imposed by Kelly. The service argued that the suspension effectively "froze" Cameron's status and that he should not be re- stored to the rank of first- class constable. Poole agreed. Cameron's disciplinary process for the drinking and driving incident contin- ues. In September 2016, the criminal charge was with- drawn by prosecutors, who cited no reasonable pros- pect of conviction. But the police service pursued charges under the PSA. Cameron was convicted in late August of this year of two charges relating to the drinking and driving inci- dent and insubordination stemming from the earlier incident involving his su- pervisor. The police service is seeking Cameron's dismiss- al in relation to that matter. Submissions on sentencing are scheduled for Decem- ber. DURHAM COP WHO PULLED GUN ON FELLOW OFFICER REMAINS DEMOTED JEFF MITCHELL jmitchell@durham region.com NEWS DURHAM - A Durham yoga instructor arrested this past summer for sexu- al assault has been charged again after a third person came forward with allegations of inappropri- ate touching. Durham police an- nounced the new charge against Kevin Campbell on Tuesday, Oct. 15. Camp- bell, 36, of Ellerby Court in Whitby, was charged with two counts of sexual as- sault in August. Those allegations relat- ed to incidents at the Goo- dLife Fitness outlet at the Oshawa Centre in May and June 2019, police said at the time. Two women came forward to report in- appropriate touching, po- lice said. Since that time investi- gators have received an al- legation that a woman was subjected to inappropri- ate touching at the Goo- dLife Fitness gym on Ross- land Road in Ajax in April 2019. Campbell now faces three counts of sexual as- sault. An investigation con- tinues. Call police at 905- 579-1520, ext. 2770 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Stacey Lepine, senior manager of early years and poverty strategy with the Durham District School Board, has seen schools burn through a year's worth of funding by De- cember - because there were just that many kids in need. "There is a need for do- nations and resources to be housed somewhere so that those schools can come and access food for their stu- dents when there are no ad- ditional funds to purchase food," she explained. Until now, there was no- where for the DDSB to store large amounts of do- nated food. But a unique new depo- t is going to make it easier to get food to students who need it, as well as clothing, personal care items and other necessities. The DDSB recently cele- brated the opening of the Re:Source Depot, located at Village Union P.S. in Osha- wa. The space houses three concepts under one roof: - Donated school sup- plies and recycled materi- als for crafts and projects, which are available to DDSB educators for free; - A food hub where DDSB schools can access donated food for snack and breakfast programs; and - New clothing, footwear and hygiene items that school staff can access free for students in need. The depot has been in the works for about five years. It was one of the initiatives recommended when the DDSB created its Make a Difference Poverty Strate- gy. Lepine says education is supposed to be the great equalizer - but that's not the case when kids are hungry or lack the basic essentials to succeed at school. "When we have students who are unable to come to school because they don't have winter boots and it snowed the night before ... education isn't the great equalizer then when we can't get them through our doors," she said. "We need to be able to provide them with the tools they need to be successful as a whole, not just from an education- al standpoint." The Re:Source Depot is already helping to fill those needs. It has a commercial size fridge and freezer, which means staff were able to ac- cept a donation of 156 cases of yogurt on opening day - something that would have been turned down before due to lack of storage. "There are lots of really useful things here," said Ryan Ferguson, a Grade 3 teacher at Village Union P.S. "It's a place where teachers can come togeth- er and pick stuff up instead of having to spend their own money." Lepine says the DDSB's three-part depot is unique in Ontario. Other school boards of- fer some of the compo- nents. For example, the To- ronto District School Board's arts department has Artsjunktion, which accepts donated arts and crafts supplies. But DDSB staff don't know of another depot of- fering food, classroom ma- terials and clothing and hy- giene supplies. A letter has been sent out to local businesses and organizations to explain the types of items that are needed. So far, recycled dona- tions have included things like fabric, cardboard rolls and metal tins. "We hope to create a con- stant cycle of receiving ma- terials to lessen the burden on our landfills," said Claire Morgan, the DDSB's manager of early years and poverty strategy. Donations are accepted at the Re:Source Depot by appointment on Tuesdays from 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. The depot is open to DDSB staff every Wednes- day from 12 to 7 p.m. Village Union P.S. is lo- cated at 155 Gibb St. in Osh- awa; the entrance to the de- pot is at the rear of the parking lot.

RE:SOURCE DEPOT IS UNIQUE IN ONTARIO, WITH THREE CONCEPTS UNDER ONE ROOF So tiny, so precious. I gazed in wonder and hor- ror as my friend Jackie McBlain carefully unfold- ed a paper towel and re- vealed the contents: A lit- tle bird she'd found on the sidewalk when she went to mail a letter at the post of- fice, on her way to our ex-fice, on her way to our ex-f ercise class that morning. It had flown into a window, seeing the reflection of the sky, and fallen to its death. It was still warm when she picked it up. "Ruby-crowned king- let," I agreed, confirming what she'd thought. We studied the small inert form somberly, the perfectform somberly, the perfectf olive-grey plumage with two white wing bars, yel- low edging on its prima- ries, white eye ring, and most diagnostic, the scar- let patch atop its head that meant it was a male. A crown of bright feathers, usually hidden, that this handsome little woodland bird would raise in breed- ing season to attract a mate and warn away ri- vals. And now, never again. Jackie and I talked about what we could do -- contact the post office staff and beg them to treat their windows with bird-friend- ly translucent film or de- cals, readily available on- line and at nature stores. Phone Canada Post's main office and report the trou- bling incident, so they might take action. I re- called how quickly and wonderfully GO Transit staff had responded when a Great Outdoors reader sent them a photo of four dead cedar waxwings she'd found on a train plat- form last spring, next to aform last spring, next to af glass entryway. I drove past the post of- fice on my way home andfice on my way home andf noted that the five-story building had a row of pic- ture windows on every lev- el above. Migrating south from some dense, sweet-from some dense, sweet-f smelling coniferous forest -- probably part of a flock of warblers and other kinglets -- our four-inch- long feathered friend like- ly got disoriented when it arrived downtown, seeing so many reflections of sky, and no trees nearby to land in. He was one of an estimated billion annual fatalities in North Ameri-fatalities in North Ameri-f ca, songbirds that meet their end crashing into window glass, a big reason Canada's bird populations are plummeting. Feeling helpless, I vowed to appeal to read- ers, right now at the peak of fall migration, to make their windows bird-friend- ly, and urge their neigh- bours to as well.

The aim of this Project is to provide improved road network connectivity, capacity and active transportation to support continued growth in the City of Pickering and bring relief to the existing road infrastructure.The study also supports the development of lands located south of Highway 401 and the rail corridor, west of Church Street South, east of a Canadian National Railway spur line, and north of Bayly Street. The Process and Outcome This Study was conducted in accordance with the planning and design process for Schedule‘C’projects, as outlined in the Municipal Class EA process (Municipal Engineers Association, October 2000, as amended in 2007, 2011 and 2015), which is approved under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act (R.S.O.1990,c.E.18).An Environmental Study Report (ESR) has been prepared.It describes the need for the Project, the evaluation of alternative solutions, evaluation of alternative design concepts for the preferred solution, and recommends a preferred design concept for the new road crossing.Potential impacts associated with the preferred design concept, and mitigation measures to reduce these impacts have also been assessed.The ESR also provides a record of consultation undertaken throughout the Study. The preferred design concept is a bridge crossing of Highway 401 and the rail corridor, with a sidewalk and a multi-use path.Notion Road and Squires Beach Road will be realigned slightly to the west and elevated on the approaches to the bridge.Pickering Parkway will be realigned slightly to the south on the approach to Notion Road.

In Pickering, we are privileged and honoured to work with the Royal Ca- nadian Legion (RCL) Branch 606 on an annual observance that remem- bers and pays tribute to our veterans and those he- roes that have paid the ul- timate sacrifice for our na- tion. This year, we mark Re- membrance Day with two events. On Sunday, Nov. 10, we will host our Remem- brance Day parade, ser- vice and observance, be- ginning at 10:45 a.m. at the Chestnut Hill Develop- ments Recreation Com- plex and ending at the cenotaph in Esplanade Park. On Monday, Nov. 11, we will host another service and observance at city hall, where we will march from the east end of Espla- nade Park to the cenotaph. This year, we will recog- nize the 75th anniversary of D-Day by having a bell ring out 75 times. Nov. 11 is observed across Canada each year and is an important time of reflection and gratitude. My late father, William Ryan, was a veteran. He served in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, which fought in the Euro- pean campaign of the Sec- ond World War. And to re- flect on his bravery and sacrifice, and those of his fellow veterans, makes me both proud and sombre. We will once again be partnering with RCL Branch 606 to install Veter- ans' Banners on light poles throughout our city cen- tre. These will remain in place until after Remem- brance Day and serve as an important tribute to the many names and faces of our veterans. We have a collective ob- ligation to help young and new Canadians under- stand the brave actions and sacrifices of the noble men and women who have served in Canada's mili- tary and peacekeeping ef- forts. No one should wear a poppy simply as a token gesture. Rather, everyone should fully understand and appreciate that the freedoms we enjoy are a di- rect result of our veterans' incalculable sacrifices. I hope to see many of you at city hall on Nov. 10 or Nov. 11 - or both. Togeth- er, let us show our noble veterans, brave soldiers, and dedicated servicemen and women that we truly appreciate all that they have done and continue to do for us. And that we shall never forget. Dave Ryan is the mayor of the City of Pickering.

PICKERING - The con- troversy over China and its relationship with Hong Kong has made its way prominently into Picker- ing. A discussion about Hong Kong planned for Oct. 22 at the Pickering Public Library has been cancelled amid safety con- cerns - a decision not sit- ting well with Martin Leung, who was to be lead- ing the talk. Leung, a native of Hong Kong who been living in Pickering for the past 30 years, believes the cancel- lation is another sign of the widespread censorship surrounding China and concerns about human rights violations. But Kathy Williams, in- terim acting CEO for the li- brary, said that's simply not the case. Rather, she said, there were safety concerns raised by staff that auto- matically trigger an occu- pational health and safety assessment. "I'm hoping to do a risk assessment this week with one of my program staff and then we're hoping that we can run the program again in a safe manner, tak- ing into account staff con- cerns," Williams ex- plained. "It's not about cen- sorship because we don't want to do that. We don't like to shut down intellec- tual freedom; we're a li- brary. Honestly we didn't realize staff had concerns, but they brought them up very recently." Leung said his discus- sion was to include a brief history of Hong Kong, ex- planation of the one coun- try, two systems policy of China, reasons behind the unrest, relevance to Canada and the extent of the impact on democratic societies. He has paid close atten- tion to Hong Kong and Chi- na for the past 10 years, since retiring as a comput- er engineer, and simply wants to grow awareness and engage discussion, he said. "I don't know if there's some political pressure or they genuinely feel if we let this seminar go on, some- body's going to burn down the library or whatever," Leung said. "But the bot- tom line is the effect is Ca- nadians cannot talk about issues they should have a better understanding of be- cause we are afraid to talk about China." The controversy was thrust even more into the news recently following a tweet from Houston Rock- ets general manager Daryl Morey that supported anti- government protests in Hong Kong. Although quickly deleted, the tweet has had plenty of fallout, including damaged rela- tions between China and the National Basketball Association. Leung, who was part of a protest in Markham earli- er this month during a flag- raising ceremony marking the 70th anniversary of Communist China, said there has been no property damage or personal injury resulting from demonstra- tions in the GTA. "The thing that worries me is that there's no trans- parency in the decision," said Leung, who was not satisfied with the explana- tion he received in an email from Williams. "Why is it we can talk about every- body except China?" Williams did not divulge the nature or extent of the staff concerns, but said it was irrelevant. She said the risk assessment was re- quired by law under the Oc- cupational Health and Safety Act, and that there was no political pressure to cancel the talk. PICKERING DISCUSSION ON HONG KONG CANCELLED AMID CONTROVERSY Martin Leung, shown here at a protest in Toronto, was scheduled to speak about Hong Kong at the Pickering Public Library Oct. 22, but the discussion was cancelled amid safety concerns.

If you want to give your home a refresh but are wor- ried about affecting people and the planet, check out these useful tips and guide- lines. Do your research. It’s im- portant to know where your items are coming from to un- derstand if products are made ethically and sustainably. Look into your favourite brands and stores to see if they have any green policies and how they treat their em- ployees. Another idea is to check out and contact local artisans who actually make the goods themselves. That way you know exactly who’s making an item and that it didn’t have to travel very far to reach you. See the big picture. Con- sider the whole lifecycle of an item and how it will function once it’s in your home. For ex- ample, a vintage table may not be made from reclaimed wood or come from a sustain- able forest, but by buying something previously used you’re reducing waste. Simi- larly, things that help you low- er your total energy consump- tion, like a sleek low-flow sho- werhead or setting up an ur- ban garden in your backyard or balcony, may have a bigger impact than you think. Read the labels. Look for items that are certified, ac- credited as fair trade, or made from natural and environmen- tally friendly materials when- ever possible. When it comes to warm duvets and fluffy throw pillows, down is the most sustainable choice.

Connect Hearing and Professor Mark Fenske at the University of Guelph are seeking participants who are over 50 years of age, have never worn hearing aids and have not had a hearing test in the last 24 months, for a hearing study that investigates factors that can influencebetterhearing. Study Parameters The researchers will examine listening in a range of situations, from one-on-one, to group conversations, watching TV and wider social contexts like supermarkets and other noisy environments, and how it effects connection and socialization. Why Participate? It is estimated that 46% of people aged 45 to 87 have some degree of hearing loss, but most do not seek a solution right away. In this study you’ll be playing an important part in determining the key factors around identifying hearing loss and what influences the decision to seek treatment. Participants will be significantly adding to growing knowledge surrounding hearing loss. *Wingfield,A.,Tun,P.A.,&McCoy,S.L.(2005).HearingLossinOlderAdulthood:WhatItIsandHowItInteractsWithCognitivePerformance.CurrentDirectionsinPsychologicalScience,14(3),144–148.†Studyparticipantsmustbeover50yearsofageandhavenever wornhearingaids.Nofeesandnopurchasenecessary.RegisteredundertheCollegeofSpeechandHearingHealthProfessionalsofBC.VAC,WCBaccepted.1.Cruickshanks,K.L.,Wiley,T.L.,Tweed,T.S.,Klein,B.E.K.,Klein,R,Mares-Perlman,J.A.,&Nondahl,D.M.
