CHINESE NEW YEAR COMMENCES JANUARY 22, 2004

The celebration of Chinese New Year, a tradition that dates thousands of years, has its origins in the People’s Republic of China with practices throughout the Diaspora, worldwide. The Chinese Zodiac consists of a 12-year cycle, each year of which is named after a different animal that imparts distinct characteristics to its year (e.g., Sheep, Horse, Snake, Dragon, Rabbit, Tiger, Ox, Rat, Pig, Dog, Rooster, Monkey). Many Chinese believe that the year of a person’s birth is the primary factor in determining personality traits, physical and mental attributes, and degrees of success and happiness throughout his/her lifetime. Currently, 2004 marks the Year of the Monkey which has the following traits: very intelligent and able to influence people; good politician; thirsty for knowledge; talented and inventive; compatible with traits of the Dragon and/or Rat but not the Tiger. [To ascertain whether you reflect this trait, start with the year 1908 and add 12 years until you arrive at the present year.] Educators are encouraged to infuse information into the curriculum pertaining to the Diaspora, specifically the contributions of Canadians of Chinese origin and their contributions towards the growth and development of our nation.

Family, community keeps Meagan's memory alive CARRIE BRUNET Mirror/Guardian Jan. 14, 2004 When Denise Bebenek lost her daughter a few years ago, she drove away from the Hospital for Sick Children feeling lost and empty. All she wanted to do was reach her arms out and wrap the building, filled with ailing children, with a hug. Just before the anniversary of Meagan's death, the dream was realized as people rallied for Meagan's Walk of Hope, the first ever walk that ended in a human chain or "hug" around the hospital.

Since then, Meagan's Walk has been named one of the top three fundraisers for the Hospital for Sick Children. At last count, more than $330,000 has been raised in little Meagan's name for the hospital. More than 18 satellite walk sites, both north and south of the border, have been organized.

"It is so unbelievable," said Bebenek. "Because it all started here."

It's time again for the annual dinner/dance gala organized by the Bebeneks in memory of the five-year-old girl who died in the summer of 2001.

Three years ago, Bebenek approached the Etobicoke Guardian with words of hope and faith as her daughter battled a deadly brain tumour.

Meagan's school, Our Lady of Sorrows, had spent weeks creating 1,000 origami cranes - a Japanese symbol of well-wishing for the girl who had to undergo yet another round of radiation.

The students from junior kindergarten to Grade 8 gathered outside to make a wish for Meagan as they tied their paper birds to the school's chain link fence. Their wish that day - to heal the girl of the cancer that gave her migraines, and caused her nausea, to be rid of the cancer that was slowly taking her life.

According to her oncologist, the prospect of Meagan surviving was slight, at best (less than five per cent).

A little more than six months after her diagnosis with cancer, Meagan died on June 17, 2001.

But her journey didn't end there.

The community rallied around the Bebeneks, not wanting to let go of little Meagan.

First a large street sale took place, then in the January 2002, the first annual Meagan Bebenek dinner/dance to raise funds for the Hospital for Sick Children was held. In May, Bebenek relentlessly pursued her cause, organizing the first Meagan's Walk of Hope, and a major fund-raising event was born.

Year after year, Bebenek continues to drive the fundraising "for all the other little Meagans," out there.

The dinner/dance takes place at the Renaissance Convention Centre, near Dundas Street and Hwy. 427.

Tickets are $65 each, and the event takes place on Jan. 31. For more details visit www.meaganswalk.com or call 416-767-5004.

PREVENTING SLIPS AND FALLS

Slip hazards exist when there is not enough friction or "slip resistance" between your feet and the walking surface.

FLOORS SHOULD BE KEPT CLEAN, DRY AND FREE OF OBSTACLES.

Cover any spill (e.g., juice, water or oil) with a chair or other visible object. Report immediately for clean up by the Caretaker.

Slippery stairsReport any stair missing non-skid strips to the Caretaker and/or Principal. This could be particularly hazardous when many people are using the stairs, such as at dismissal times or fire drills. Icy walkways during inclement weather• Wear appropriate footwear (i.e., good traction, flat heel) for your own protection. • Report icy conditions immediately to the Caretaker and/or Principal.

Reduce the risk of slipping, take your time and pay attention to where you are going.

If you have any questions please call Corrado Maltese 416-222-8282 ext. 2665 or Louise Barker 416-222-8282 ext. 2674. TCDSB Occupational Health and Safety Department,




HISTORY:In 1993, a custodian sustained injuries to his hand while cleaning out a snowblower machine. The worker was removing a small blockage of newspaper, tree twig and snow from the auger discharge chute while the engine was idling. The auger was in tension and the impeller blades were not rotating. When the worker tried to dislodge the clog from the impeller blades they rotated and crushed the worker’s fingers, causing fractures and lacerations. In 2000, a custodian hurt his ribs when the snowblower caught on an uneven pavement and caused a kickback. PRECAUTIONS:• Be sure the areas to be cleared are free from hidden hazards by checking the walkways for anything

that could be caught in the snowblower before it snows • Wear relatively close-fitting clothing • Store snowblower and gasoline in shed • Do not refuel the snowblower indoors • Never leave the machine running unattended • Always allow a certain distance between your abdomen/chest and the snowblower in the event of a

kickback STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES:1. If the auger becomes clogged, do not reach into the auger shell to dislodge ice, snow or debris. 2. Before attempting to clear the auger or chute, stop the engine.3. Never put your hand in the auger housing or discharge chute while the engine is running. Instead,

turn off the engine, and use a tool to pry out the clog. 4. Do not attempt to repair the snowblower. Disconnect the machine and report it to the Service

Quality Supervisor. 5. Reduce speed on slopes and sharp turns to prevent tipping or loss of control. 6. The operator should receive proper instruction in the operation of the snowblower from Head

Caretaker/Supervisor before using the equipment.

If you have any questions, please call your Occupational Health and Safety Department Corrado Maltese at 416-222-8282, ext. 2665
