In this version of capture the flag, two teams of children have to steal three balls from a hula hoop placed at opposite ends of the gym at North Yorks Driftwood Community Centre.

Steven Jawahir, 11, and Melissa Thadal, 10, are among the youngsters darting back and forth trying to grab balls and defend their teams hula hoop.

They deke around other players, most of whom are involved in the game, although there are a few who are playing to the beat of their own drums.

Dan-Dyllan Mugisha, 12, isnt enamoured with this game. He joins in but his heart doesnt seem to be in it.

He would have been happier play-ing one of the many other games taking place at the community centre in the Jane Street and Finch Avenue neighbourhood every weekday after-noon this summer.

At first glance, the scene could be taken from countless summer day camps taking place at com-munity centres and schools across Toronto.

But, in fact, about 70 campers between the ages of seven and 12 are part of a program called Kine Kids created by Angelo Belcastro, chair of York Universitys School of Kinesiology.

Developed in conjunction with colleagues from the University of New Brunswick, the program gets youngsters involved in fun active play guided by some of Belcastros kinesiology students.

While all children can take part in the program, Kine Kids was devel-oped to appeal to youngsters who are unaccustomed to activity and may be overweight or suffer from chronic diseases such as diabetes. It is also geared at pre-teen children who are reaching an age when many youngsters begin to bail on physical activity.

Rather than having them drop out, were using Kine Kids to keep them active longer, Belcastro said.

The program is needed because Active Healthy Kids Canada has given Canadian children a failing grade in active play and leisure on its 2012 report card, Belcastro pointed out.

Although Kine Kids has been used in a university setting for the last five years, the program in Driftwood marks the first time it has been tried in a community environment, Belcastro said.

The participants undergo a number of tests including having their blood pressure, body fat, bio-logical maturity, muscle strength, aerobic power and self-confidence measured. While they are playing, the children wear a device called an accelerometer to measure their activity levels.

Kine Kids is designed to get chil-dren involved in fun, non-competi-tive, active games rather than in team sports, Belcastro said.

For kids who are inactive or self-conscious about their athletic abil-ity, team sports can actually act as a deterrent to physical activity, he said.

To be involved in play, kids today are programmed to sport or organized behaviour. But aspects

are problematic. Not everybody is skilled, Belcastro said. We dont keep score (in Kine Kids). All you have to do is run with a smile on your face. You can do that, cant you?

If Steven, Melissa and Dan-Dyllan are any indication, Kine Kids is a success.

I have good thoughts (about the program). I dont think its going to get boring, Steven said, adding there are times when he can be a bit of a couch potato. I would say it is a fun place. You can do lots of stuff here and make friends. I like getting up to play games.

Melissa is thrilled with the pro-gram, happily describing how her mom signed her up after seeing flyers for the program.

A fan of dodgeball and other activities, Melissa likes the fact the accelerometers are keeping track of her activity levels.

Im more like an active kid. I love to play and have fun. I love to be respectful, she said.


Though only 18, Sean Goldhar already possesses a maturity and strong sense of self well beyond his years.

The North York residents love of asking questions and making sure he thoroughly understands his assigned work helped him tie for the top aver-age in the Toronto District School Board this year, earning an astonish-ing 99.7 per cent.

I was surprised I did that well, said Sean, who tied with Martingrove Collegiate Institutes Run Ze Cao for first place.

I worked really hard. I spend a lot of time studying, making sure I understand the concepts. Its a lot easier to excel at something you love. I love school, I love reading and learning.

The Lawrence Park Collegiate Institute student scored 100 per cent in chemistry, biology, physics, vectors and calculus, and functions. His lowest mark was 98 per cent in English.

School isnt his only passion. Sean played Junior A hockey and hopes to make the Varsity Blues team at the University of Toronto, where he will be a student come fall. He hopes to major in biology.

A musician, Sean is a pianist and was also on his schools athletic council, and helped organize char-ity events such as the Terry Fox Run and Movember.

For me, its a lot about balance, said Sean, who is doing cancer

research this summer at Mount Sinai Hospitals Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute.

And finding that balance was something his parents instilled in him from a young age.

His father, Dr. Steven Goldhar, stressed the importance of both aca-demics and athletics to his son and his twin sister, Laura, a promising tennis player.

But school came first, said Steven, who received the highest mark at Newtonbrook Secondary School at the end of high school. (Sean) is very well-rounded.

Seans mother, Barbara, agrees.(Sean) is the kindest, nicest

person, said Barbara, a physio-therapist.

He never gave us one moment of grief. Im very proud of him and its nice to see his hard work being acknowledged. Everything he does, he does to the best of his ability.

News from Toronto Public Health that two people in the city have tested positive for probable West Nile virus should serve as a warning for all residents.

Now is the time to stop and think about protec-tive measures regarding the disease that is spread by infected mosquitoes.

Theres no need for panic; just remember some simple steps we can all take to limit both our per-sonal risk of exposure and that of our neighbours.

The best way to protect yourself is to limit exposure. Be especially aware at dusk and dawn, when mosquitoes are most active. Use mosquito repellent, cover up with long sleeves and pants, and wear light coloured clothes in areas where there are mosquitoes. Residents can also protect their homes indoors by making sure all holes in window and door screens are repaired.

Also, Toronto Public Health reminds residents that checking properties and limiting areas that mos-quitoes can use as breeding grounds helps keep the numbers down. In particular, residents are asked to remove standing water from their properties, espe-cially water that has gathered in plant pots, buckets and other items.

On a larger scale, the city is also doing its part by having larvicide put into catch basins in order to help reduce the mosquito population.

This years hot spring and summer have raised the risk level of West Nile virus in Toronto, and the citys public health department said the two probable diagnoses last week mark the earliest appearance of the virus in humans since it first arrived in Toronto in 2002. An 80-year-old man, who has been hospital-ized, and a 32-year-old woman recovering at home have been found with the probable diagnosis. Public health did not say what part of the city they are from.

West Nile virus is a potentially deadly disease origi-nally carried by birds who passed it on to mosquitoes after being bitten. People exposed to the virus can show a number of symptoms including fever, rash, neck pain, confusion, severe headaches and sensitiv-ity to light. In serious cases, it can cause inflamma-tion of the brain.

However, the risk of infection is still considered low, according to Toronto Public Health, with less than one per cent of people becoming seriously ill and 80 per cent of people bitten by an infected mos-quito do not become ill at all. That should not lead to complacency, though. Working together, we can all limit our exposure to this virus.

Ive enjoyed the Summer Olympics immensely. The only frustration is the five-hour time differ-ence between Toronto and London. The majority of my TV viewing is at night, so that means most of what I see is on tape. Already knowing the results takes some of the fun out of it.

Thats where viewing ingenuity comes into play. There is a way to catch the Olympics when youd rather be out soaking up the rays. Every convenience store seems to have a TV and the Games have been blaring away inside since the open-ing ceremonies. So I tailor my morning strolls around them. Every mile or so, I just pop in for an update.

On the civic holiday, Monday, the timing worked out perfectly. Gymnastics is one of my favourite Olympic events and in the first store I entered, the mens rings was just beginning. The lady behind the counter was riv-

eted to her set, smiling away as she looked on and then suddenly let out a groan.

What happened? I asked.

Good form, great execu-tion, but he didnt stick the landing, she sighed.

Oh, well. It happens. I bid her adieu and 20 minutes later checked out another store that also had on the mens rings. The guy working there was gazing excitedly at his TV and then shook his head.

Good form, great execu-tion, but he didnt stick the landing, he lamented.

Too bad. I continued my journey and in the subse-quent store the womens uneven bars was now centre

stage. The man operating the cash register was cheer-ing away as I walked in and then he threw up his hands.

Good form, great execu-tion, but she didnt stick the landing, he moaned.

Hmm. Not sticking the landing appeared to be contagious. So I crossed the street to try and change my luck. Womens uneven bars was on in the next store, too. As I came in, the cashier was just turning her back to the screen in dismay.

Great form, great execu-tion, but she didnt stick the landing, she moaned.

I decided to walk the last four miles non-stop, drop in to the convenience store around the corner from my place, catch the mens vault and then call it a morning.

As I was about to step inside, the store owner came out from behind the counter mumbling, Good form, great execution, but he didnt stick the landing.

I was feeling like a real

jinx at this point, so I told her I had to go. At that moment two kids racing each other on skateboards came heading straight at me. I nimbly sidestepped the first, twisted gracefully to avoid the next, cart-wheeled over a poodle and did a somersault onto the top of a recycling bin.

Unbelievable form, fantastic execution and you really, really stuck the landing, the store owner shouted, then hugged me and handed me a bouquet.

A crowd that had gath-ered applauded wildly. The kids on the skateboards and the poodle serenaded me with O Canada. And Stephen Harper and Justin Bieber sent me Tweets as I waved and blew kisses to all. n Jamie Wayne is a

but seriously

To the editor:I would like to suggest

a solution to improve the staffing levels in Torontos police department.

I have to wonder why I see fully equipped officers standing around the many dozens of construction sites across the city watching a work crew digging a hole.

What is the ultimate cost to the taxpayers of Toronto? If these men and women have all of this extra time off so that they can work these hours plus their regular shift, perhaps the regular shift could be increased to allow them to focus on essential police work.

So I have to ask, is the City of Toronto squandering this valuable resource by assign-ing its officers to this duty?

Is this another way for our cash-strapped city to generate income for the city treasury by having the con-tractor pay for security? Or is this once again part of the dance between the city and its unionized employees?

Born in Serbia in the former Yugoslavia, Nestor immigrated to Canada when he was four with his parents, Anna and Roy, and older brother, Alex.

The family settled in North York and Nestor attended Earl Haig Secondary School before becoming a professional ath-lete.

Being a professional tennis player, I never thought this day would come, Nestor laughed of his honourary degree, adding he used to use Yorks training facilities to better his game.

Its a great day.A world champion and 2000

Olympic gold medalist, the 39-year-old was awarded the Order of Canada in 2010 for his contributions to the sport of tennis, and his community and charitable activities.

A competitor at every Olympic Games since 1996, including 2012, Nestor is Canadas first Wimbledon champion, having won the doubles title in both 2008 and 2009.

Nestor has won 79 mens

doubles titles and eight Grand Slam mens double titles.

Its unique for a tennis player to get a degree like this, Nestor told reporters following the convocation. Ive spent a lot of time here. The university has given me a lot.

Admitting he was a little bit embarrassed by the atten-tion, Nestor joked his wife, Natasha, was jealous he was

handed a degree while she had to work for hers.

Asked how he thought Canada was faring at the Summer Games, Nestor remained optimistic the country could claim more hardware.

I think were doing pretty well, he said. There is a chance to win a few more medals.

To select a tree for your landscape is a big deci-sion, one that you will live with for as long as you own your property.

How many choices do we make that will affect us for such a long time span? Skimming over the citys list of selected trees and randomly selecting one is not recommended. Do your research and examine what the tree will look like in all four seasons.

There is more to a tree than green leaves or needles. Lots of trees display beautiful flowers in the spring, summer or fall. Flowering trees are wonderful even if they flower for just a few weeks.

What does the tree look like in the winter? Is it an evergreen? Remember that winter is the lon-gest season so look at evergreens as well as deciduous trees.

Sometimes a tree will have unusual bark with textural inter-est or showy fruit or a unique branching pattern.

four-season focus

The easiest way to find out is to do a quick search on line or visit a nursery. The best tree choice will have interest in all four seasons, although some-times this is challenging to find.

Deciduous trees like Gleditsia triacanthos var inermis (honey locust) have smaller leaves creating a dappled light effect. This means some sunlight will shine through the tree canopy allowing a wider variety of annu-als and/or perennials to grow underneath. The honey locust leaves also turn a vibrant yellow in the fall.

urban survival

Toronto is an urban environ-ment and your selected tree will have to survive pollution, salt, extreme temperatures, strong winds, competition from other plants as well as urban infrastructure above and below ground.

Some trees are better sur-vivors of urban stresses than

others. Landscape Ontario has created an informative website to find urban tolerant trees with photos and detailed descrip-tions.

Ideally, you want to plant a tree that is disease- and pest-resistant.

Although very beautiful in every season Betula Papyrifera (paper birch) is subject to the leaf miner and borer so I rarely use it in my planting designs, although some of the newer cul-tivars are less susceptible.

If the tree is not vulnerable to diseases, chances are you will have less maintenance in the future.

The mature height is an important factor to consider when you are planting a tree. The tree will need room to grow so avoid planting it too close to your home or constricted areas with surrounding hard surfaces.

space for canopy

The canopy above will require space as well as the root system below. Some trees are long lived and some, like the paper birch, are short lived about 60 years for an approximate time frame.

The trees growth rate is usu-ally categorized as slow, medium or fast but it can be influenced by environmental conditions like soil and sun.

I will discuss some of the best trees for urban environments in my next article based on the four criteria of seasonal interest, urban tolerance, mature height and growth rate.

LAURA BOOTH [email protected]

A campaign initiated by York South-Weston MP Mike Sullivan for a national stolen cellphone registry could be closer to reality with a new move by the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC).

The CRTC issued a directive on July 17 to the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association (CWTA), asking what the wireless industry is currently doing to protect consumers from becoming victims of mobile device theft.

The CRTC is now asking the CWTA, well what are you guys doing? And Im hoping that theyll get an answer that theyre not doing very much, so the CRTC will then order them to do (something), said Sullivan in an interview last week.

In June, the MP announced the launch of a motion to Parliament that would require cellphone companies to share stolen phone information, specifically the unique identity numbers each phone has, to pre-vent reactivation under a different wireless carrier.

Sullivan said he was made aware by Toronto Police 12 Division that an overwhelming majority about 85 per cent of street robberies in his riding involved cellphones.

While Sullivan is applauding the

directive as a step forward, the lengthy process concerns him.

Every week that goes by, some more phones are stolen. Everybody knows its a problem but nobody has done anything about it yet, he said.

The CRTC directive makes men-tion of a plan in the United States to create a central database that will track stolen phones and end the abil-ity to connect them to cellphone carrier services. The U.S. initiative is a partnership between several police

departments and wireless carriers. Sullivan said a Canadian database

should work in co-operation with the U.S. initiative.

I mean, you dont want to have a situation where the phone becomes a paperweight in Canada but is useful in the United States. You need to make sure its a paperweight in both places, said Sullivan. Take away the market, you take away the reason to steal.

According to the CRTC directive, the CWTA is required to submit a response by Aug. 13.
