The Citizen, 2005-11-03, Page 6PAGE 6. THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2005. The Word on the Street What would you do if you won $54 million? LEANNE MELLIN - BLYTH ”1 would pay off my parents’ debts and buy a bunch of cars and houses. And I would take my friends on a shopping spree.” GARY CLAYTON - BARRY O’KRAFKA- MORRIS-TURNBERRY "I would have a large party for fc nily and friends and do an enormous amount of travelling and I would go see various sporting activities.” BELGRAVE "There are some charitable organizations that I would gladly help out. I would buy my daughter a car and a house. I would take a trip around the world and start a business called Clayton's Classic Cars." JIM OLDFIELD - BRUSSELS "I would build an 1,800 square foot house...20 of them in different countries and go visit them. 1 would give $1 million to my wife and $10 million to my girlfriend. I would unlock the door to the store and leave, the first person through the door after we won the money could have it. 1 would travel to Alaska, Spain. Australia and share it with the kids.” B.J. DEJONG - WALTON "I would spread it around. I think it’s nice that 17 people won. I would spread it among kids, the church, the Walton community and I would take a trip to Holland. My husband is from there and hasn’t been back in almost 50 years.” Projected sites to be identified on registration Continued from page 1 which recommended moving ahead "on the understanding that registration does not guarantee that a program will be offered.” Williams would not say exactly where possible programs will be located, but the projected site of each program will be identified on ihe Dec. 5-9 registration form. “Staff preference will be for kindergarten- to-Grade 8 schools.” states the Oct. 25 report, "and also for schools that are in towns that have high schools, in order to take advantage of natural transportation routes.” Nearby rural schools are also a possibility, however, where a range of criteria can't be met within a town. The registration form will also "indicate that parents should consult their child’s current teacher regarding the suitability of a French Immersion program for their child." According to Williams. Avon Maitland kindergarten and Grade I teachers have not been coached about how to respond to such inquiries. However, he told reporters, "what they’ll be able to do is flag, for example, a child who’s having difficulty in the English language program. Because if a child is not meeting the requirements in their primary language, they’ll quite likely have even more difficulty in a second language program."

Women up to the age of 50 should aim for 25 grams of fibre per day Check labels for foods containing more than 4 grams of fibre per serving to help you boost your intake.
