PICKERING — A Toronto man is in hospital after his motorcycle collided with a tractor trailer Wednesday on Hwy. 401. The OPP report the 30-year-old man was travelling east in the express lanes when he lost control of his motorcycle and rear-ended a truck at Whites Road at 2:40 p.m. The man was transported to Lakeridge Health Oshawa with serious but not life-threatening injuries. Con- stable George Ostrander of the Whitby detachment said it was not known why the man lost control; the investigation is ongoing. The eastbound express lanes were closed for two-and-a-half hours.

You Can Do It To! Donna Parson I have challenged myself on more than one occasion in my life. Curves Ajax I’m a full-time nurse, mother of two with a very busy schedule. member Some goals I’ve had seemed so distant at times. With hard work and determination, I’ve learned that anything is possible. A year and a half ago, I decided to join curves to lose weight, increase metabolism and become fi t. Not only did my health After improve, I now have the time and the energy to look after myself, juggle my busy family and keep up with my nursing career. In time, the hard work paid off. I lost 30 pounds and 26 inches! It truly has been an amazing journey. I’m proud to say my goal is getting very close and really is possible. When friends and family notice, it sure does feel good! Curves has been an inspiration and a real positive turning pint in my life. I love it!
