Artistic Hairdesign is going orazy Pre-Christmas i, Special by Andrea Adair Recycling has to be a concentrated concentrated effort made at the point of purchase, says Glenda Glenda Geis of the Durham Recycling Recycling Centre. Ms. Geis presented a slide show to members of Club 21 at the Haydon Community Centre on November 7. Her presentation focused on the importance of recycling and on how the recycling centre in Durham operates. She said that in order to reduce the amount of garbage garbage produced by individuals individuals they must make decisions regarding packaging and disposability when they purchase purchase items. Ms. Geis said many nack- ages around items are laminated laminated plastic on box board that can't be separated or recycled recycled and end up in a landfill landfill site. She said the Brock West landfill site is expected to close in the early part of 1990. Therefore, people are being encouraged to take more responsibility for their garbage. She said the centre encourages encourages re-using, reducing and recycling. The Durham Recycling Centre is helping with the last aspect by providing curbside collection of cans, glass and newspapers to single single family dwellings in the Durham Region. Over 85,000 blue boxes are in existence in seven of the eight municipalities in the Region. (Currently the municipality of Brock is in the planning stages of collection.) collection.) Presently, the recycling centre can only accept the cans, glass and newspapers because they can't get buyers buyers for any other product. Ms. Geis said the centre "can only recycle what product product has a buyer." Right now, cans are bought by Stelco or Dofasco, glass is bought by Dom Glass and newspapers by a de-inking plant near Tno- rold, Ontario. Before the products are sent to the buyer, they are separated at the centre located located just north of Oshawa. Aluminum and steel cans are separated, then squashed into "biscuits" (small densi- fied bales) and sent to Hamilton Hamilton where they are melted melted and used again as cans for products. Glass collected by the centre centre is stored outside of the warehouse for safety reasons reasons (the glass breaks during collection) then shipped for recycling. Baled newspapers are sent on two transport trucks each day to a de-inking plant near Thorold. Ms Geis said: "Each ton of recycled paper is .equivalent : to 17 pulp trees." She also said that recycled recycled newspapers could be redelivered redelivered to the newsstands eight weeks from the time they are collected. She mentioned that Atlantic Atlantic Packaging is building a newspaper recycling plant in Whitby which will provide provide 200 jobs and a local, steady market for recycled paper. She said she thought recycling recycling was working as well as it is because it is something something the average person can participate in to help clean up the environment. She said most people can't do much to stop acid rain but recycling enables them to fight pollution in a smaller , but just as effective way. SOLID WOOD ACCESSORIES FOR EVERY ROOM IN YOUR HOME ORDER NOW FOR CHRISTMAS :/V>> She sees the development of the Commission into a single single body serving the entire Town of Newcastle as a major major challenge, while growth in the Town of Newcastle is the biggest single issue. "I think the main thing that's going to face the commission commission right now is probably probably the growth in the area," she said. She adds that she does not want to burden existing consumers consumers with higher hydro rates in order to include all areas of the Town of Newcastle Newcastle in a single utility. She believes this does not have to happen if all people in the Town of Newcastle are part of a single commission. "I think that something probably can be worked out with Ontario Hydro and the Ontario government," she said. ' Mrs. Storks, a lifelong resident resident of Newcastle Village and well-known Newcastle businesswoman, notes that although she has not had Hydro experience, she believes believes that she has sufficient background in business and New Offices For Skate '88 Skate '88 voulunteers will be moving into better offices soon. Newcastle Town Council decided Monday, after hearing hearing a request from Skate '88 Campaign Chairman Garnet Rickard, to provide the fundraising fundraising committee with a safer safer working environment. Mr. Rickard explained that Skate '88 would need an office for two to three months as the campaign was taking longer than expected. The office is presently located located in the old arena on Queen St. and with the construction construction on the street, Mr. Rickard said, those working in the office nave been doing so under difficult conditions. He said at times they have had to park their cars a block away and "walk over or through trenches, water holes ana a variety of conditions conditions that are unsafe." He added that one day last week he didn't have to , stir his coffee because vibrations vibrations created by machines operated so near the building stirred it for him. Councillor Marie Hubbard Hubbard made a motion to refer the matter to Chief Administrative Administrative Officer Larry Kot- seff, who will find an alternate alternate headquarters for the arena fund-raising campaign. campaign.

E 'wsy "Overshooting" To Achieve Results All of us have looked at the pictures in magazines and newspapers, and wondered why the professionals' professionals' photos look so good. There are a number of reasons: training, preparation, preparation, hard work and volume. That's right, sheer quantity quantity of shots. If you ever watch a professional photographer at work, you'll see him or her shooting frame after frame of film. A professional never counts on a single shot. Expressions change, a new composition can occur to the photographer, a subject can blink at just the wrong moment. There are countless reasons for shooting more than a single' picture of an event or scene. You should keep the professionals in mind when you lake your own pictures. Of course, you don't want to shoot picture after picture the way the pros do, but you should think about two or three exposures of important pictures. If you're photographing people, you may not even change your camera position, just shoot two or three times. You'll be surprised at the differences in the pictures when they come back from the processor. And when you get your pictures back from the processor, processor, don't burden other people with all of them. Professionals don't show pictures that don't satisfy them, and you shouldn't either. Choose the best print or slide of each pose and show that. PHOTOGRAPHY CUSTOM FRAMING V aN gE ' S PHOt O I HOUR EXPRESS PHOTO EINISHING 31 KING ST. W.
