The nine-year-old Pickering girl, who has lost her grandfather to cancer, decid- ed when she was six she wanted to do something to help kids with the dis- ease. So she began collecting change in a Freezee box she had turned into a collec- tion bin. She also collected bottles and had a lemonade stand to add to the pot. At age seven, she donated her hair to Locks of Love. But she was sold on the Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario when she saw now-deceased musician Jeff Healey in the commercial for the organization. “I said, ‘Mommy, I want to do this for kids,’” Renee said from the family kitch- en table, with her money collection neat- ly counted in front of her, along with a binder containing the documentation to RON PIETRONIRO / METROLAND PICKERING -- Renee Faux held a garage sale recently for the Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario and raised $706 from the sale and other fundraising efforts.

Girl found outside Courtice Secondary School BY JENNIFER STONE jstone@durhamregion.com PETERBOROUGH -- Durham police offi- cer Robbie Harding had just returned to where he had begun a high-speed pursuit of a van registered to Stanley Tippett last August when a young girl stumbled out of the dark, naked from the waist down, her shirt torn down the middle. “She was wet, dirty,” Constable Hard- ing said as he took the stand during the third day of Mr. Tippett’s trial on charg- es of kidnapping and sexually assault- ing a 12-year-old Peterborough girl last August. Const. Harding was working on a report at the Bowmanville police sta- tion last Aug. 6 when he was dispatched at 2:21 a.m. to a “disturbance -- screams and crying from a female” near Courtice Secondary School, he testified Wednes- day. “The nature of the call, the word cry- ing, really picked up a seriousness for my response, so I travelled at a high rate of speed,” arriving at the Nash Road school at 2:25 a.m., he said. He pulled in at the high school and saw a man walk out of the woods and get into a red van. A chase ensued down Nash Road, with Const. Harding pulling up alongside the van a couple of times and getting a look at the driver, before being called off the chase, for public safety reasons, around Varcoe and Nash roads. In between, he had been advised the van belonged to Mr. Tippett, a Peter- borough resident who Const. Harding said he was told “was known to coerce young girls.” Off the chase, Const. Harding returned to the high school. He called in the Dur- ham K-9 unit and was briefing the K-9 officer when he saw the girl come out from the shadows. The girl was “hold- ing on to the fence, staggering forward ... semi-crouched,” he said. Const. Harding accompanied the girl to the hospital. Also taking the stand was Felicia Neals, Mr. Tippett’s then-mistress. She told court Peterborough police had tried to warn her off Mr. Tippett, even before his most recent arrest last August. Police caught up with Ms. Neals at the Four Counties Brain Injury Clinic, “tell- ing me stuff about Stanley and asking if I really knew him.” Ms. Neals had earlier testified she believed Mr. Tippett was separated from his wife when she took up with him. When she broached the subject with her boyfriend, he maintained police were wrong, that he was indeed sepa- rated from his wife. Mr. Tippett is married to a woman named Natalie, with whom he has five children. Ms. Neals was reported- ly pregnant with Mr. Tippett’s baby at the time of the arrest, but subsequently miscarried. Ms. Neals testified she told police she would carry on her relationship with Mr. Tippett. The police officer she spoke to “said be careful, because (Mr. Tippett) was dangerous.” During Ms. Neals’s testimony, Mr. Tip- pett’s lawyer, Mike McLachlan, began an application to have Ms. Neals’s diary brought into evidence. But the appli- cation was called off at Mr. Tippett’s request. The trial continues in Peterborough court under Justice Bruce Glass.

But the trappings of a group of 12 alleged drug dealers -- including cars, SUVs, houses and a condominium -- are now in posses- sion of Durham Regional Police after a three- month investigation resulted in the seizure of more than $3 million worth of dope, cash, guns and property. Project Isis “started at the grass roots within our region and quickly expanded to the city of Toronto,” Detective-Sergeant Mario Les- sard said Wednesday morning. Durham cops held a news conference at the police property bureau in south Courtice to display the drugs and guns, cash and vehi- cles seized as proceeds of crime. Detective Cyril Gillis, supervisor of Dur- ham’s Drug Enforcement Unit, said the inves- tigation began with a focus on low-level deal- ers and rapidly led to the identification of a “cell” that peddled marijuana, cocaine, hero- in, ecstasy and methamphetamine. “Our initial investigation started with a tar- get (suspect) in Whitby,” he said. “An under- cover operator infiltrated this operation from that level and we just followed the food chain ... from there we followed the money, fol- lowed the drugs and we found Mr. Big.” Just who “Mr. Big” is cops aren’t saying. But he’s one of the three Toronto residents busted at the conclusion of Isis, Det. Gillis said. Other suspects were rounded up in Markham, Rich- mond Hill, Whitby and Oshawa. Det. Gillis said the accused appear to have lived on the proceeds of crime, eschew- ing day jobs and hanging out in casinos and night clubs. “These guys were living the high life,” he said. Wednesday police had on display 10 vehi- cles, including a Chevy Suburban as well as Hondas, BMWs and Mercedes-Benzes. Pack- ages of drugs were piled on tables alongside bags and bundles of cash. To one side sat an Audemars Piguet wristwatch Det. Gillis said was valued at $48,000. Recently passed legislation allows prosecu- tors to seek court-ordered forfeiture of prop- erty deemed to be proceeds of crime, Det.- Sgt. Lessard said. In addition to the property on display Wednesday, the Crown will seek to seize residences in Whitby, Markham and Toronto linked to the alleged dealers.

The male chow was immediately taken under the care of the agency after wandering into a resident’s yard in the area of Rundle Road and Bloor Street on Sunday night. “Right now we’re just letting people know that because his condition is so severe, we’re not sure if he’s going to pull through yet,” shelter manag- er Ruby Richards said, adding that a multitude of medical tests are underway to determine whether the dog requires specialized treatment. Phoenix, as he’s been named by animal cruelty investigator Debby Houghton, had filthy, matted fur with pus and blood oozing from his face. His nails were also extremely overgrown and his entire body likely riddled with infection. “Phoenix’s condition hasn’t become worse but he hasn’t improved all that much either -- he is eating, which is a good sign and he’s been given something for the pain,” said Ms. Houghton, who, in nearly 20 years in the business, called this one of the most disturbing cases of animal neglect she’s ever dealt with. “I’ve seen a lot, unfortunately, but this is what happens when you deal with animal cruelty and we’re hopeful that we will find who did this.” A $1,500 reward is being offered for any details leading to the conviction of the dog’s owner with staff working on increasing that amount over the next few days. Phoenix may have to be transferred to the Univer- sity of Guelph if specialized care is needed but at this point, there’s still no guarantee he will make it, said Ms. Richards. “We will do whatever it takes to try and save him but we’re also realists that we can’t save every dog,” she said. “He’s one of the worst cases any of us have come across so right now, we’re just keeping our fingers crossed.” Bookkeeping By Certi ed QuickBooks ProAdvisor obbcltd.com 647.206.0576 PST, GST, WSIB, Payroll Day-To-Day BookKeeping In your offi ce ... on your schedule 38th Annual Uxbridge-Scott Historical Society Saturday and Sunday August 22 & 23, 2009 10:00-5:00pm Travel back in time and discover the ways of the pioneers 1812 Village & Re-enactment Steam, Gas and Oil engines Antique Cars & Trucks Pioneer Arts & Crafts Displays & Demonstrations Musical entertainment, home baked goods and refreshments.

POGO is a non-profit organization that works to ensure all children with cancer in Ontario have equal access to state- of-the-art diagnosis, treatment and required ancillary services. Renee chose to hold a garage sale along with a pogo (the food on a stick) and lemonade stand and bottle drive earlier this month to really add to the pot, calling it Pogos for POGO. She pre- pared a speech and told the congrega- tion at Port Perry United Church about her efforts and mentioned she’d appre- ciate any items she could include in the garage sale. “It was nerve-wracking,” she said. “It was scary.” But it paid off. The garage sale added $486 to her total, making it $706. She’s awaiting another $20 from one of the teachers at her school. “I would really like to see her get to the $1,000 mark to hand in,” said her moth- er, Karen Faux. Renee has always had a motherly atti- tude and cared for others, Ms. Faux said. Renee helped out with her school’s pro- gram for children with physical and mental challenges since she was six. Also, any time a fellow student needs pencils, erasers or even some of her lunch, they can go to Renee. If anyone is interested in helping Renee reach her goal, they can e-mail Karen at babe_581@hotmail.com.

All content copyright Editorial Opinions FREE SPEECH Pro-life demonstrator explains why he holds up signs To the editor: The basic premise for showing graphic pic- tures of aborted human beings to the public rests in the potential for deterring adults and adolescents from such acts. Circumstances in Canada warrant taking drastic action with what Show the Truth demonstrators believe is in accord with divine charity. This is akin to tough love that parents need to sometimes have for their children. The Supreme Court ruling in 1988 struck down the abortion law prevailing at the time since 1969. In the ruling, “all seven justices explicitly recognized the legitimate inter- est of the state in protecting the life of the fetus/unborn child.” Prime Minister Stephen Harper and his predecessors have refused to open up the debate on abortion in Parlia- ment. Apathy allows the procrastination in correcting the political/legal stalemate in our nation to continue at the cost of human lives. The circumvention of the rule of law from legal precedent results in abortions being procured today even for instances where it is used as a contraceptive measure. Surely this won’t be corrected unless more Canadi- ans realize that the status quo on abortion is no longer acceptable. It is a valid point that parental rights are being compromised by the method used for the demonstrations. However, it pales in comparison to the annihilation of children in their mothers’ wombs and their right to life that is being denied. Human beings need to develop a sympathetic heart towards those who are disadvantaged in our society. Show the Truth demonstrations attempt to instil compassion for the plight of the unborn in Canada. In a loving way, parents can foster this as a positive character trait in their children with an honest, age-appropriate explana- tion about abortion. Reactions of anger, which are projected onto children by parents who object to the demonstrations, are what should be curtailed. Vito Norejko London, Ont. Unrestricted abortion must end in Canada To the editor: In a recent report by Banerjeee/Robson of the C.D. Howe Institute regarding immigra- tion’s impact on Canada’s demographic and economic future, the authors stated that in order to keep the present ratio of workers to retired persons, the projected national pop- ulation in 2058 would have to increase to 210 million, an impossible task considering we now have only 225,000 immigrants each year. It appears the reason we have become so dependent on immigration is because our fertility rate has dropped from 2.1 to 1.54. With 3 million abortions performed since abortion was made legal in 1969, we will con- tinue to suffer population decline until we reduce our present abortion rate of nearly 30 Canadian babies for every 100 who are born alive. Show the Truth Tour was at major arteries in Durham Region last week showing pictures of aborted babies. If we care about the society we want to have in the future, we would be wise to reassess our stance. Judy Morris Whitby ENVIRONMENT Biobags are best for composting: reader To the editor: I wish to add to your published list of ‘approved’ compost bags that you may have missed. BioBags are an item I insist on pur- chasing for our household due to its supe- rior packaging, bag dispensing and product presentation techniques. I’ve seen and expe- rienced the others. They could use some improvements, believe me. I do not enjoy pulling five or more bags at a time out of a box I need to rip open or need a knife to do so and having to push the excess back in the box. Patrick Forbes Whitby Greenspace and growth can live together in Durham When it comes to long-range plans for Durham Region, there will always be a conflict between those who wish to con- serve green space and others who want to build up the area. Since the Greenbelt was established under the Province’s Places to Grow Act in 2005, hard and fast rules have been established about where municipalities can build and where they can’t. The Greenbelt has laid out a 1.8 mil- lion-acre stretch of land around the Golden Horseshoe from Niagara to Dur- ham. And Growing Durham is the Region’s plan for development over the next 20 years. That plan, sent to the Province for approval in June, has come under fire from a number of environmental groups who claim the plan encroaches on Green- belt lands. They argue Greenbelt space should not be encroached upon by development and they have a supporter in Ajax Mayor Steve Parish. Mayor Parish wrote a letter to the Province about Durham’s position and received a response from two deputy ministers who said, “Durham’s plan does not adhere to the provincial guidelines.” Before the Province puts its collec- tive foot down too swiftly on the Dur- ham plan, it should pause to reconsider. Durham is the most rural of the five GTA regions, with more greenspace and agri- cultural land than any other. It is the only region that is being called on to have a ratio of three jobs to every resident while the Province sees fit to have a ratio of two jobs to every resident in the other four GTA regions. Mayor John Gray, who is chairman of the Region’s planning committee and who is backing Growing Durham, says intensification in Durham has to take place in Durham’s downtowns and along major transportation routes. And, he points out, when the Region is fully built out, it will still be 84 per cent greenspace. The key element for the next 50 years in Durham is finding the perfect balance between being responsible environmen- tally and developing jobs and growth so that the region is not just a commuting zone for Toronto. Those jobs and industries are needed to shore up the tax and revenue base for municipalities in Durham. Employment lands are needed in each city, town, municipality and township to make that a reality. And that can be done while ensuring Durham continues to be the garden of the GTA. e-mail letters to newsroom@durhamregion.com / max. 200 words / please include your full first and last name, city of residence & daytime phone number / letters that do not appear in print may be published @ newsdurhamregion.com newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • August 20, 20096 P WE THINK... email responses to newsroom@durhamregion.com newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • August 20, 20097 AP DURHAM -- The deputy leader of the Green Party of Canada visits Durham Region next week.

Best Choice When choosing either prescription or non-prescription sunglasses, here are the top quality features to include for best protec- tion and value, according to Hakim Optical: • Lenses that reduce glare or light inten- sity. • Lenses with the highest protection against harmful utraviolet (UV) rays. • Optical quality/distortion free lenses. • Lenses that sharpen images by elimi- nating colour aberration. The choices range from Constant or Changeable Colour Densi- ty lenses (photochromic) in glass or plastic, to High Contrast Tinted lenses or even Po- larized Sunglass Lenses to aid in reducing glare from reﬂ ective surfaces. • Non-glare coatings enhance the func- tionality of your sunglasses. News Canada Health & Wellness ADVERTISING FEATURE Back-To-School Tips: Protect your child’s eyes from harsh sunlight Be Kind To Your Eyes Tips for minimizing computer vision syndrome Computer vision syndrome or CVS is a condition described by the Canadian Association of Optom- etrists as various eye and vision symptoms associated with prolonged exposure to digital screens, including computers, television, Blackberries, and cell phones. Symptoms of computer vision syndrome can include eye strain and fatigue, blurred, irritated and dry eyes, double vision and headaches. The majority of Cana- dians may not even realize they have this condition. With the evolution of technology, more and more Canadians are spending time on digital screens, a signiﬁ cant increase from ﬁ ve years ago. While it’s difﬁ cult to avoid the modern day conveniences these technological devices provide, it’s important to mini- mize any strain to your eyes. Consider these suggestions and give your eyes the break they need. Follow the 20-20-20 Rule The Canadian Association of Optometrists recom- mends for every 20 minutes of screen time, take a 20 second break to blink and focus your eyes on some- thing 20 feet away. This will give your eyes a much- needed break and reduce some of the symptoms men- tioned earlier. Screen Smarts Take a few seconds to adjust the brightness and con- trast of your digital screen. The brightness and con- trast should be set at comfortable intensity so that the letters are easily read. Lighting can make all the difference Room lighting should be diffused to reduce glare and reﬂ ections from your screen. Diffused light- ing will help minimize screen glares that may cause squinting and eye strain. Press “OFF” If you experience any CVS symptoms, turn off your digital screen and visit your optometrist for a com- prehensive eye exam. Ask your optometrist if your glasses are up to date and describe any symptoms you may be experiencing. Your eyes will thank you.

Durham’s other entry, Whitby’s Priscilla Lopes-Schliep, won the silver medal. TRACK AND FIELD Frustration for Perdita BY BRAD KELLY bkelly@durhamregion.com BERLIN, GERMANY -- Priscilla Lopes-Schliep is getting used to doing a little celebration after big races. She did one after winning bronze at the Olympic Games in Beijing, China last year, and on Wednesday night in Berlin, Germany, she got to do another at the World Track and Field Championships. Breaking from the starting gate quickly, the 26-year-old from Whitby won the silver medal in the 100m hurdles in a time of 12.54, just off the gold medal winning time of 12.51 by Jamaica’s Brigitte Foster- Hylton. For Durham’s other entrant in the final, Pickering’s Perdita Fel- icien, she finished a disappointing eighth. Lopes-Schliep was still basking in the glory a couple of hours after the race, describing the moments after crossing the finish line. “I knew I was in the top three, but I didn’t know what the place was,” she said via a conference call. “I knew Brigitte was in front of me and I told her she won and she said she didn’t even know because she ran to the finish line with her eyes closed. “When she saw her name and my name pop up, we did a little cel- ebration like last year at the Olym- pics. I think that’s my signature mark now.” Lopes-Schliep’s second place fin- ish was sandwiched between two Jamaican’s, as Delloreen Ennis- London was third. Just 10 minutes prior to the race, Lopes-Schliep was taken to doping control for drug testing after being randomly selected following the semifinals. She noted the unusual episode was a distraction, but she overcame it. For Felicien, 28, the ghost of a past race came back to haunt her on this day. She looked awkward over the first hurdle, knocked down the sec- ond, and was left far behind the rest of the field by the midpoint. It was back in 2004 at the Olym- pic Games in Athens when Fel- icien crashed and fell in the final. She entered the race as one of the medal favourites, having won the World Championship title in 2003. This time around, Felicien looked sharp, running a 12.77 in Tuesday’s heats, and besting that with a 12.58 in Wednesday afternoon’s semi. ATHLETICS Anne Ottenbrite wants athletes to be self aware Pickering Swim Club coach teaching program at UOIT BY BRAD KELLY bkelly@durhamregion.com PORT PERRY -- The more athletes know about themselves, the better off they will be in the long run. That’s a philosophy Anne Otten- brite is hoping to instil in young athletes looking to take the next step in their athletic career. She will be running an eight-session pro- gram at UOIT in Oshawa begin- ning Sept. 28, designed for ath- letes 12 and over. At the comple- tion, the athlete will become more self aware, which will increase the opportunity to attain a higher level of success. “In this day and age, I find a lot of people are becoming less and less self aware. We want a quick fix. We want things to be great,” says the Port Perry resident, who is a coach with the Pickering Swim Club. She points to the high cost of purchasing one of the new hi-tech polyurethane swimming bodysuits that caused a number of records to fall at the recent World Champion- ships as an example of the quick- fix mentality. Money spent on the swimsuit could be better spent on improving technique, she says. “Instead of quick fixes and push- button-type athletes, we need to become aware athletes.” The five-step program begins by helping athletes correctly log their training and competition sched- ules to identify pattern behaviours and how to react, change or make adjustments to them. Once accom- plished, the program is round- ed out with goal setting as well as visualization and relaxation tech- niques. “It’s pointless to set goals when they aren’t aware athletes,” she says of the process. “They will just duplicate the behaviours again and again. The goal setting needs to be a later process.” Following a similar type of thought process helped Otten- brite during her stellar career in the pool, culminating with her gold, sil- ver and bronze medal performance 25 years ago at the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles. “I was always very aware and did my own logging and had a five-year plan in place which I did on my own,” she recalls. “I’ve always been incredibly fascinated with it. “Years ago, it was frowned upon to think that you needed mental skills work and that you were men- tally weak.” The eight sessions at UOIT will be held once a week for one hour, with a maximum classroom setting of 20 athletes. The skills obtained can- not only be applied to athletics, but also to school and beyond. “Ideally they will become a self- aware athlete and take ownership in their improvements,” says Otten- brite. “A self-aware athlete will learn how to motivate themselves and understand how to maintain their own motivation, which to me is really key.” For more information, visit her website at www.gold-minds.ca.

Once again, the outcome of the game was in doubt until the very end. The Dolphins led off the scor- ing with a short touchdown run by running back Jordan Urquhart, the game’s offensive MVP. How- ever, the Storm evened the score by halftime. The second half con- tinued to be a defensive battle with neither team scoring during the third quarter. With a little less than seven min- utes left, the Storm drove for what appeared to be the go-ahead score only to be stopped by the determined Dolphin defence. With a little more than five min- utes left in the game, the Dolphins started with the ball on their own 20-yard line and drove the ball down the length of the field led by quarterback Curtis Inniss and running back/fullback combina- tions of Urquhart, Brad MacMil- lan, Joe Tuccitto, Nathaniel Vai- kla, Sean Seecharan and Tyshon Holness. The long 85-yard drive was completed when Seecharan scored a touchdown on a three- yard run, leaving only 1:32 left on the clock. Drew Rider connect- ed on his second convert of the game to give the Dolphins the 14- 7 lead. The Storm once again had the ball and was determined to tie the game until a throw from the quar- terback was intercepted by safety Randall Inniss, who was named the game’s defensive MVP. The Dolphins rode their play- off motto, Dedicate, Dominate, Celebrate, the game plan devised by co-head coaches Rawle Elliott and Rob Colvin, and the great energy, support and noise from their faithful fans who travelled to Hamilton to cheer the team on, to a hard-fought team win.newsdurhamregion.comNews Advertiser • August 20, 200919 AP FOOTBALL Dolphins rise to top again SUBMITTED PHOTO HAMILTON -- The Ajax-Pickering Dolphins celebrated winning the SCOFL Junior Varsity AA football championship for the third straight year on Aug. 15.
