Push on for school

This week in PINK

The Observer & Eccentric explores voting technology in Wayne and Oakland counties, the faces behind the electoral college, and why so many people choose not to vote.

BY TONY BRUSCATO . STAFF WRITER

PA6EA9

The push to get voter approval for $138 million in funding for Plymouth-Canton Schools began in , earnest this week. Nearly two dozen members of the Citizens Election Committee began a whirlwind, month-long push to get "yes" votes for the two proposals that will be presented to district residents Sept. 28. The ballot will have two questions. One calls for the approval of an 18-mill renewal on non-homestead; property for the next 10 years, which is worth $29 million to the district. The other asks voters to pass a $109 million bond issue; $94 million will be used for upgrades in buildings constructed before 2000, with the remaining $15 million to build a new elementary school in southwest Canton. Committee co-chair KaryAmin of Plymouth Township says spreading the message, on the importance of the two proposals will be the group's biggest challenge. "Showing how important it is to upgrade the schools, as many of them are getting very old," said Amin, whose three children attend Isbister Elementary. "Many surrounding school districts continue to upgrade and maintain, whether it's integrated technology or infrastructure, so it's important that we keep pace." The advocacy committee spent two hours Monday discussing how to persuade voters. Ideas included lawn signs, presentations at PTO and booster club meetings, phone banks before and during the vote, and letters to the editor. "I don't think it will be that tough a sell," said cochair Mary Eggenberger of Canton Township. "Residents in the Plymouth-Canton community are very supportive of their schools. And, I think they realize schools need improvements, just like you fix up your house. "If you're looking at the money, and it will only cost $47 a year, hopefully they'll be thinking it's worth it to keep up property values," added Eggenberger, who has three children in all three grade levels. According to Patricia Brand, the district's executive director of business services, the millage renewal won't cost most homeowners any money, only those with second homes and businesses. The cost of the bond proposal will be $47 a year for those who own a home, valued at $245,000. One of the committee members is 78-year-old George Dodson, long-time Plymouth-Canton Schools educator for whom Dodson Elementary is named. Dodson said it's a mistake to believe senior citizens will automatically vote down a proposal that includes a tax increase. "They have grandchildren, and this is an opportunity to give something to them and the kids that play in their neighborhoods," said Dodson. "I think they'll respond to that and come through for us." The Plymouth-Canton Education Association and the Michigan Education Association are always a force in the district's school board elections. PCEA. President Chuck Portelli said the groups haven't taken a stand on the propositions, but Portelli, who is a member of the committee, said he'll encourage members to vote in favor of the two Sept. 28 proposals. "We have too many teachers teaching in rooms that shouldn't be taught in, some in art rooms and storage areas which aren't conducive for teaching," Portelli said. "The renovations to the buildings are important." The Citizens Election Committee, which is registered with the state, will be holding fund-raisers to pay for the group's effort. Ryan said the committee had $3,600 left over from the previous bond issue. The district's elections clerk, Elizabeth Adams, said residents have until Aug. 30 to register to vote in tke election.

The fight is on Walkers take strides to battle breast cancer BY BRAD KADRICH STAFF WRITER

Three years ago, Jill West's mother fought off breast cancer. On Friday West, along with some 1,600 other walkers, left Ypsilanti on a three-day, 60-mile journey in the hopes her daughter and daughterin-law never have to wage the same battle.

All those people, along with some 300 volunteers and crew, were participating in the Breast Cancer 3-Day, a 60-mile walk for women and men who want to make a personal difference in the fight against breast cancer.

' Rich Wiersma hams it up a bit for the camera. The Canton man has worked for Guardian Alarm for eight years and installed the high tech security system for the Extreme Makeover house.

Vardons bed shakes enough to wake them up to go get their son, Wiersma explained. Wiersma guesses the equipment donated is worth close to $10,000.

There were surreal moments as various trades stumbled Over each other to rebuild the small home from the foundation up in six days. At one point its was the middle of the night - 4 a.m. - and Wiersma looked out and there was a man sitting in his lawn chair watching them build the house. During the day hundreds of people lined up

behind barricades to see the show's stars and the workers do their stuff. "A heating and cooling guy ran through our wires and I had to do some of them again," Weirsma said. Usually more than 150 workers swarmed the site at any one time, Wiersma said. "We really had a challenge to design a system to work for the Vardons' unique circumstances and disabilities," said Matt Fraiberg, assistant general m.anager of Guardian Alarm. "However, we were able to combine off-the-shelf hard-

ware usually used in commercial buildings with equipment normally installed in homes and integrated it into one, easy-to-operate system." "Before our work, it might have been five or ten minutes or maybe an hour before the Vardons would realize that Lance had walked out of the house," said Fraiberg. "Now they'll have the comfort of knowing they'll be alerted within seconds and can respond appropriately. The ABC reality show did 12 episodes last year that aired on Sunday nights and they were a ratings surprise, partly because of the popularity of host Ty Pennington. Projects included enlarging the home of a couple expecting triplets, rebuilding a house for eight children who had just lost their parents, giving a facelift to an entire community whose homes were flooded during a hailstorm, and remodeling the living space of a wheelchair-bound young man by making it more accessible - which included the installation of an elevator. Wiersma, who has lived in Canton with his family for 14 years, is not sure he'll actually be on the TV show when the Oak Park episode airs this fall, most likely in November.

New leaders arrive at Salvation Army 2 businesses fail in alcohol sting , STAFF W R I T E R

For Majs. Bill and Kathy Hogg, home isn't necessarily where the heart is, it's where the Salvation Army uniform hangs. For the Hoggs, the uniform now hangs in Plymouth. The Hoggs took over earlier this month from Maj. Steve and Jacqueline Hull, who left the Salvation Army to pursue other interests. The Hoggs arrived, freshly plucked from duty in Adrian, eager to get started on their new assignment. "We're excited to be here," Kathy Hogg said. "We hear so many good things about the community, and about the Salvation Army here." The Hoggs leave a post they'd manned for five years. It's a smaller operation, and some of the people they're leaving behind are like family. But the couple figures Plymouth will work out the same way. "When we move to a community, it becomes ours," said Bill Hogg, like his wife a 15year Salvation Army officer. "It becomes part of our extended family. You'll see us at events all over the community." It's something they've been doing for a long time. Bill Hogg was actually born into the Salvation Army, to parents who had served as Army officers. In fact, Bill represents the fourth generation of his family to serve in the Salvation Army, and the second generation of officers. The couple met while doing a musical called The Witness in Grand Rapids, Kathy's hometown. Born in Minnesota, Bill has lived all over the place; he met Kathy while living in Grand Rapids. The Hoggs, who have three children — Katie (Jason) Distelrath, who produced the couple's only grandchild, 4month-old Lily; 20-year-old Kristy, a senior at Siena Heights; and 12-year-old Kelly — will celebrate their 25th anniversary in March. The last 15 of those have been spent as Salvation Army officers, and neither would

have it any other way. "The Salvation Army is the greatest organization in the world," Kathy Hogg said. "It has the ability to help people and share the gospel message. Look at what we've accomplished. The Salvation Army has a very rich history." According to the Hoggs, the Salvation Army only added to that history in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. The Army set up a big, white tent and fed people 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The Hoggs, who initially went to New York sporting a banner that had been signed by members of the Adrian community in which they served, begged district officials for a chance to go back. "We told (district headquarters) if there's an opportunity to go back, I want it," Bill Hogg said. "He called back with dates and said, 'Pick one.'" Thousands of volunteers manned the tent and did the work, from all over the country. There were adults and kids on, break from college and all manner of others, all of whom were doing it for their own varied reasons. And all making an impression on the Hoggs. "It was the most awesome experience," Kathy Hogg said. "I hope we never have another one, but if we do, I'd be honored to be able to serve." Kathy Hogg likened it to sen-ice performed by Salvation

Under the big top Circus draws huge crowds BY TONY BRUSCATO STAFF WRITER

Naqelhout, 3-1/2, eats c o t t o n candy at one of t w o performances by t h e ly Miller Circus at Plymouth's Central Middle School.

Five-year-old Julia Scanneil of Plymouth Township carefully climbed off Viola, a 10,600-pound Asian elephant, with a big smile on her face. "It felt like a big cloud," said Julia of riding the 33-year-old pachyderm, who has been with the Kelly Miller Circus most of her life. "She was nice and quiet." Joshua England,-5, of Canton said it was a bit scary at first. "I liked trying to pet her, but I thought she was going to take her trunk and swing me," he said. By all accounts, the two performances of the circus at Central Middle School, sponsored Wednesday by the Plymouth Lions Club, was a success.

"I was overwhelmed," said Ross Taksony of Plymouth, this year's chairman of the event for the Lions Club. "I was standing at the gate when people were leaving and I saw how happy they were. That's what makes it worthwhile, smiles on their faces and the excitement of the kids." Taksony said attendance at the two shows was about 1,700 people, which could net the Lions Club approximately $5,000. "That's very good," said Taksony of the take for the day, which will be used to fund various programs and activities. "In fact, the circus people told me it was excellent, considering their average show is about a third of that. They were impressed with how many tickets were sold. "We had business owners who bought tickets for about 100 children sponsored by the Salvation

Army, First Step and other groups, who couldn't afford to attend the circus," Taksony said. Taksony noted the money will eventually be used to f u n d scholarships, visual aids for the elderly, and supporting programs like Leader Dogs for the Blind and the Penrickton Center in Taylor, which houses children who are blind and have other disabilities.

That's the site of the old HQ, building and Mans hardware and lumber store is already being developed, with a PETsMART store already open and Pier 1 and Michaels crafts ready to open soon. Marshal's department store will occupy one portion of the building and U.S. Storage will occupy another. Also planned are a Bombay Company and a Panera Bread, which will occupy a free-standing building on the site. Salla said she thinks those developments will be helpful to the two perpendicular strip malls on either end of the site, which include Kramer Flooring, the Shark Club and other smaller businesses. "I'm sure they are interested in this new development so they get more exposure," she said. But a hidden part of the development is the construction - or opening up - of interior access corridors within the centers that will allow traffic to move from cross street to cross street without having to exit onto Ford Road. "You can literally drive from

Haggerty to Lilley without getting onto Ford," she said. Entering the old Super Kmart site off Lilley, drivers can negotiate all the way to the Shark Club, then go north and west and exit onto Lilley. A similar interior access drive allows drivers to enter the Kohl's site off Sheldon, go into the Murray's Auto/Secretary of State area to the west, around the Super Bowl and exit onto Canton Center. , And once the Lowe's site is developed on the north side of Ford between Morton Taylor and Sheldon, drivers will be able to enter the site from . Morton Taylor and exit onto

Sheldon Road.

"A part of the Ford Road traffic study is trying to provide interior access between the sites," Salla said. "We're in the process of getting out a request for proposals for a design consultant to help us with a comprehensive sign program. "Way finding" signs are a part of that." Those signs, within the centers themselves, would direct drivers to the appropriate interior access drives to avoid exiting onto Ford Road. "The access management study will certainly encourage that," she said. And with White Castle planning a tear-down and rebuild,

Salla reminds drivers and customers that they can exit White Castle by going south toward the hotel, then turning right on the interior drive to Haggerty. Turning right on Haggerty they can pull into the left turn lane to go west on

CC gridders set sights on 4th consecutive title BY PAUL BEAUDRY STAFF WRITER

, If you think repeating as champion is tough, try threepeating. If you think that's tough, try making it four-in-a-row. ; Catholic Central gets to find but just how tough it is starting Saturday, when it opens its football season at the Pontiac Silverdome against Illinois power Downers Grove South. And the team that has the biggest target on its back also has to try and defend its title with one h a n d tied behind its back - not like the Shamrocks will get much sympathy from any one else. ' "We can't worry about winning four in a row, we're just worrying about the first game," said CC coach Tom Mach. "We've got just three kids back on offense and three on defense, so there's a lot of new players who are coming into the system. All we can do right now is try to give them reps. We can't put in too many plays, but run the ones we put in well." A n d in typical Mach fashion, he has his sights set someone lower than others.

"Our goals never change," said Mach. "We're trying to win the Central Division then the Catholic League. Hopefully, if we do that, we'll get enough victories to get in and then hope for t h e best." At a lot of other schools, returning three players on either side of the ball would lead to great dismay. Catholic Central isn't any other school. T h e Shamrocks, as usual, have a lot of seniors coming back. But since it's a seniorladen starting group year after year, they don't all see a lot ( of time as underclassmen. The quarterback spot is a prime example. Both Anthony Sabo and Mike McDonald are seniors, but saw little time behind two-year starter Dave Thomas. The spot is wide open, with junior Rob Forte also fitting into the mix. Senior fullback Eric Vojtkofsky is back for his third year on the varsity, while running backs Nick Barrett and Brendan English will all fit in the plans. They are all solid, but they have big shoes to fill. "Eric is a very powerful runner who has speed enough to break one," said Mach. "He's not real fancy, but we don't ask him to be fancy a n d we

don't want h i m to be. We h a d three good backs last year and could go with any one of t h e m to keep teams off-balance. "This year, we'll do the same so people will have to key on all three and that's h a r d to do. Unfortunately, none of t h e m are as fast as (Derek Brooks, who graduated)." Juniors Chris Davis and Mike Parrelly along with Ed Moore will fit into t h e mix. The offensive line is solid with seniors - center John Franchi, guards Jon Morasso and J i m Musgrave a n d tackles Chris Pederson and J o n Smart. Tom J o h n s o n will start at one tight end with the other spot rotating between juniors Chris Harding and A d a m Gerard a n d senior Chris Massey. Dominique Fischer, Andy Davis a n d Andrew Vitale will see duty at wide receiver. The defense seems more established a n d has good depth. Fischer a n d Rob Fragoso will go at defensive back, with Chris Sabo at safety a n d McDonald filling in for him. Moore is slated to be the Monster back with Jeff Grad also backing u p the secondary.

CC head coach Tom Mach is approaching the team's fast football season in Redford no differently than he handled the -> previous 25 seasons. :

T h e front is solid with Tom Quinn and Dave Cornwell at defensive ends with Chris Massey helping out. Morasso and Johnson are at t h e tackles along with David Niemiec a n d Smart. Steve Thill and Kevin Helton are at the nose. Kevin Horal and Vojtkofsky are are inside linebacker with Barrett and Tom McLean fit-

ting in the mix. The kicking game is unsettled and, candidly, h a s some big shoes to fill f r o m kicker Jason Gingell (Michigan) and punter Scott Schwarzlose (Texas Christian). Horal has been handling the place kicking a n d Dan G e n o r d a n d Kevin Mardegian h a v e shared the punting.

- "There's a lot of holes to fill," ?< said Mach. '"We h a d g o o d j u n - ; iors two years ago, and they * were seniors last year, Now we're faced with a lot of open * spots.

Temper, temper: Don't be a clown at the bowling alley et's call him Bozo the Clown. Every bowling league has one of these guys. He just missed an easy spare and what does he do? Bozo just takes his frustrations out on the scoring console with either a swift kick or a hard left jab. He Ten Pin also has a few Alley choice words which can be heard as far A! away as lane No. 32.

What a beating these delicate machines have to take. Just like your TV

set and other electronic equipment in your home or office, the cost of repairs, replacement boards and chips can be pretty steep on those wonderful machines that make bowling better for all. There are times when the scorers seem to be out of sync, and you might wonder, who had just slammed their fist into the automatic scorer, perhaps yesterday or earlier today? I have attended a few preseason league meetings and have listened to proprietors such as Jim Hamlin at Country Lanes in Farmington Hills informing his league officers how much it costs to keep the scorers in working order (such as paying out over $500 for a netw board after someone had abused the machine).

They are not made to absorb those karate kicks, body slams, slam dunks using a bowling ball or what ever Bozo chooses for his method of attack. We all want our bowling centers to hold the line on rate increases, but every time Bozo from your league gives the machine a whack or two, you are just inviting a boost in the cost of bowling. Bozo doesn't stop with the automatic scorers, however, because who could have been in the restroom attacking the fixtures in much the same way? Every owner is doing their best to give us the best possible environment, but there is always a Bozo or two to ruin it for everybody else because he just had a bad night on the lanes.

If you know who your league Bozos are, have your league officer^) talk to him and get him or her straightened out or you'll be paying more to bowl eventually. • Monday is the 78th annual John P. Gavie Memorial Tournament at Thunderbowl Lanes in Allen Park. Thi§ is a highlight of the new bowling season as it is considered the kickoff of the regular bowling season. There is plenty of room for spectators, so if you want to see some good bowling, come on down. There is plenty of room in the concourse to watch the action as the house will be completely filled with various teams rolling for the championships. • The Old Timers Bowling Association held its general

meeting a few days ago and everything is all set for this event, the 74th tournament. Details will come later, but it is always the Saturday after Thanksgiving Day. Like the Gavie, the Old Timers event is also at Thunderbowl. There will be entry forms on the bowling counters prior to the event. The main difference between the two events, is that the Gavie is a team tournament, whereas the Old Timers is based on individual performances in different age classifications. In recent years, there have been bowlers en masse from San Diego, Calif, participating. It is now a tradition which was originated by the late great Joe Norris.

Norris was originally from Detroit but spent his retirement years in sunny southern ^ California where he recruited some senior bowlers from that;, area to accompany him to Detroit. Currently there are about a dozen of these roving*::-' ambassadors from San Diego' "j who come here at their own expense to participate and make a good showing. Some of our local senior men: have reciprocated by visiting •>. San Diego to bowl with the . CaJifomians. This year, one of / the ambassadors is an 80-yeat^ old U.S. Navy survivor of the 5 attack on Pearl Harbor. Al Harrison is a resident of Livonia and a life member.and director of the Greater Detroit Bowling Association. He 'can be reached at (248) 477-1839.

Last hurrah

addiction

oe and Mary were married 10 years when Mary found out about a secret John had been keeping from her. He claimed to be e-mailing and checking out various Web sites for bargains. But one day she stumbled on an e-mail to Joe from an X X X rated Web site. She decided to check the history of the Web sites Joe had been going to. That day, her stomach sunk as she uncovered the sex sites he was viewing.

"How could I have missed this?" she said to herself. "Is this an addiction or does he have a bad habit?" Do you know what an addiction would look like yourself? David Stoop, founder of the Center for Family Therapy, writes that there are 10 misbeliefs about addiction. The first misbelief is that "Everybody's doing it so it cannot be an addiction." Minimizing helps justify bad behavior, he says. It's like a teen or college student who believes that since all the kids are getting drunk at parties, it can't be that bad. Everybody's acceptance of a problem makes it 10 times more difficult to see the problem for what it is. The second misbelief is that some people's opinions about what an addict should look like is often erroneous. Alcoholics are people who drink in the morning, out of a brown paper bag while sitting on the curb. Stoop reminds us that that kind of alcoholism only describes "the end product." No. 3 is the misbelief that some people think it is a spiritual issue which can only be cured with God's help. God can play a big part, but more times than not, the person must also go through a recovery process which may include a treatment center, psychotherapy and/or a 12Step program. No. 4 is that people have a choice to be addicted. Thus, if they exercised their willpower, they'd be free of the "habit." In fact, if the addiction were only a bad habit, they may very well be able to pull themselves away from it. Unfortunately, addictions are like a rubber band. You try to pull away from pornography, gambling, drinking, cigarettes, work, exercise, laxatives, food, TV or whatever, and the rubber band wants to spring back to its natural state. No. 5 is that the problem only affects the individual person. Addictions are ALWAYS a family problem, and they affect everyone. No. 6 misbelief is that the problem is only about the addicted person and no one else in the family should have to make changes. Alanon meetings, the 12-Step program for family members, were created for this very reason. No. 7 is the notion that we need to keep our problem to ourselves. Confusion and humiliation, says Stoop, will keep a family silent. Surprisingly, things will actually get better the sooner you acknowledge what is going on to important people in your life. The eighth belief is that if a spouse/partner gets tough and sets limits, the other person will leave. The ninth is the belief that addiction won't happen to me. If you grew up in a family where one person was addicted to something, you may have vowed to NEVER let that happen to you or even marry someone like that. The last misbelief is that people can never change. People can change when the pain becomes too much. Thousands of people change every day. Jacque Martin-Downs is a therapist.

Dwindling summer call for ice cream BY LiNDA ANN CH0MIN STAFF WRITER

Debbie Honhart knows it won't be long before the kids are back in school so she and friends Rhonda Lachowicz of Canton and Kristin Barnes of Westland decided to enjoy one last picnic in the park before heading over to Dairy Whip in Redford. Every day is a good day for ice cream especially during the dwindling days of summer. In spite of the cooler weather, they're lining up at stands all over town. "It's never too cold for ice cream," said Honhart of Redford as she waited in line with Ashley, 8, Arielle, 2, and Gavin, 6 months. Ice cream lovers favor stands for a number of reasons: Barnes came especially for the eyes. "They put candy eyes on the ice cream," said Barnes, who usualMartin Baker eats ice ly stops at the Dairy King in cream outside Westland's Dairy Dan Plymouth with her five kids - Ayllisia, while on his way to 10, Austin, 7, work. Alaina, 5, Ashton, 3, and Aiden, 6 months. "We've looked all over and no one else does that."

Even after school starts at Pierce Elementary on Aug. 25, Rice brothers Andrew, 13, and John, 11, plan to visit Dairy Whip once a day when they're at their father's house. Mark Wanshon makes sure to stop at the Dairy-Go-Round any time he's on his way into Plymouth from his Canton home. "" _ SWEET TREAT Ice cream is eternally popular. Stories abound about Chinese cooks creating frozen flavored snow for emperors 3,000 years ago. It wasn't until 1774 that a caterer brought confections, including ice cream, to New York. Commercial production began in 1851 in Baltimore and by 1904 Americans were wild about the exotic sweet stuff. At least 50 ice cream stands were scooping the delight into dishes and some of the first cones at the World's Fair in St. Louis. "The older kids are playing softball at Pioneer," said Wanshon, who's been coming to Dairy-Go-Round for 11 years. "I have the younger ones. It's a good way to occupy them." Like Wanshon and his bunch, a majority seek the cool, creamy stuff after dinner. By 6:45 p.m. Monday, lines were forming at the Hand-D-Dip Dairy Barn in Livonia. Their 21-month old granddaughter, Kayla, was the reason Chantal and David Kalinowski waited in line. "Ice cream is always good," said Chantal Kalinowski, who's been coming to Hand-D-Dip during the 28 years they have lived in Livonia. A passion for ice cream has kept owners Cathy and Pete Hanson in business for 36 years. They've seen generations of customers and employees return every season. Most of the stands

open in early spring and close in midto late October, making it a perfect summer job for the high school and college students filling cones. "As you stay with a business so long you get to know the faces," said Cathy Hanson. "It's kind of a nostalgic. Going up to get an ice cream cone reminds you of the old days when you were a kid. We try to keep prices affordable so families can bring their kids." Several of the stands run daily specials. King Kone opens the first Saturday in March with Nickel Day all small cones are 5 cents. Later in the season, customers can receive a free pint of ice cream by donating a pint of blood. "People used to go to King Kone since 1942 when it used to be Jack's Drive-in. It used to be like Happy Days. In the 1970s it changed to King Kone," said Jeri Stollings, who's owned the stand with husband Gene 13 years. "Opening day is customer appreciation day. There are people that would eat it all winter if we stayed open."

John and Sally Cunningham enjoy a late evening dessert at the Dairy-Go-Round in Plymouth.

PRICES LOW Dave Reitzel and twins sons Greg and Joe, 10, head over to King Kone at least twice a week. It's close to home and today's special, 29 cents for a small cone, is easy on the wallet. "I'm not excited about the stand closing in late October. I go through withdrawal," said Reitzel."Ice cream's good and it's always a good deal. My kids play baseball and soccer and the teams come up after." Baseball teams from the Bailey Center and families have favored Dairy Dan in Westland since 1956 because of employees like Lindsay Beard. "Lots of families come up and dad will say he used to come here as a kid," said Beard, who along with the other employees donated $1,500, half of last season's tips to the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute. "We're . really friendly. Lots of times if it's a baby we'll just give it to them." This was Barbara Piavis' fourth trip this summer for the low carb Moose Tracks at Dairy Dan. Piavis, a Novi resident, stops whenever she visits mother Delrose Toczylowski of Westland. "It makes a nice evening," said Piavis. "We shop and then have a little treat." Dairy Whip manager Patrick Kelley

says it's not unusual for customers to travel from distant locations to Redford. "We have people who lived here drive all the way from Brighton," said Kelley. tf We all have our problems, ups and downs but ice cream is one of those sinful treats. It's always a good day when you stop for ice cream." So many kids had stopped for ice cream at Twist 'N' Shake in Canton that Abe Sleiman was out of his most popular flavor, Blue Goo, a soft serve vanilla with a flavor burst. "It's a good treat for young and old," said Sleiman. "You never really outgrow ice cream no Kim Hartlep (left) and Kristin Vanecak enjoy ice cream matter how old you get." at the Hand-D-Dip Dairy Barn in Livonia. [emailprotected]

My Kids First Coach New DVD aims to prevent childhood obesity

here's a stereotype t h a t as people get older they automatically start losing their ability t o r e m e m b e r things. I've always felt t h a t everyone loses their m e m o r y from t i m e to time, no matter what age they are. Just look at the tests a 16year-old kid flunks here and there. To my mind, it's a big mistake to accept t h a t just because we're getting older, we necessarily will start forgetting things m o r e often. We can all keep Our m e m o ries sharp by challenging ourselves t o r e m e m b e r things. You can practice memorizing anything, really, but it's always more f u n if it's something you're interested in. (I, personally, like to memorize poems, Bible verses, and bits of Shakespeare.) You can buy inexpensive memory games, find t h e m for free on t h e Internet, a n d even create your own.

BY LINDA ANN CHOMIN STAFF WRITER

Dr. Martin Levin and former Detroit Lions player J i m Browne have teamed up t o fight childhood obesity. As parents, they're concerned about the increasing numbers of overweight kids who are being diagnosed with diseases typically found in adults. A f t e r long discussions at the gym w h e r e they work out, t h e two, together with Levin's wife Mollene, decided to p r o d u c e a DVD in hopes of encouraging a n active lifestyle t h a t could help prevent obesity. "My Kids First Coach" guides parents t h r o u g h a series of exercises to coax their children into developing m o t o r skills, coordination and confidence. Levin is fond of saying, as an optometrist he's not as concerned with kids' eyes b u t their bodies. His biggest pet peeve is parents who w a n t glasses for t h e i r children so they can sit at the c o m p u t e r longer. Children need less time in f r o n t of c o m p u t e r and television screens.

Memorization can b e a lot of f a n and it's one of the best ways t o give your mind a mental workout - n o matter h o w old you are. And please remember t o take care of your health before it's lonngggg gone! Ernie Harwell, "the voice of the Detroit Tigers" for more than four decades, retired after 55 years behind a major league microphone. Today, at age 86, Ernie's days are filled with serving as a health and fitness advocate for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, public appearances, writing, traveling and taking long walks with "Miss Lulu," his wife of more than 60 years. His latest book, a collection of his baseball columns titled Life After Baseball, is available at local bookstores or by calling (800) 245-5082.

PREVALENT PROBLEM "We started doing research, my wife Mollene on childhood obesity. She's an elementary school teacher who's seen the value of exercise in young children," said Levin, a West Bloomfield resident. "We contacted the CDC (Centers for Disease Control & Prevention) for literature and discov-

ered that since 1980 the n u m b e r of overweight kids h a s doubled, t h e amount of overweight adolescents nearly tripled. That's a pretty outstanding figure. "Obesity leads t o health issues. Young children develop b o n e and joint problems, a s t h m a and breathing problems. In teenagers we're seeing type 2 diabetes which you never saw until middle age. The biggest ramification is one-third of children born in 2 0 0 0 , if things continue this way, will have type 2 as middle age adults." Levin introduced his sons to skiing and skating at age 3 so h e has no reservations about promoting exercise for children as early as six weeks old. Divided in three sections, the DVD focuses on increasing flexibility and muscle awareness f r o m newborn through the t i m e a child is walking, hand-eye coordination and muscle control for toddlers through age 3, a n d strength, concentration and confidence for ages 3 to 5. "It's a very interactive program," said Levin. "When you have a child you start playing with them, rolling t h e m around. With this it's focused play. Parents are b o n d i n g with the children, just stretching their limbs, getting t h e m aware of their movement. I don't think it's pushing t h e m at all. It's a lot of the things t h a t parents normally do." At age 56, Levin still plays hockey a n d skis. Like his children, h e started playing sports at a young age. Today, they all remain active and maintain a healthy weight. "It's been shown t h a t children active at a young age will continue doing it through their adolescence," said Levin, who developed t h e exercises related t o eyes and hand-eye coordination. "This is not going to m a k e every child into a great athlete b u t is great for selfesteem. I remember in school everything was centered around athletics. If you were one of t h e last people picked it was traumatic. We're trying t o give t h e m a huge head start so they won't b e the last child picked."

Former NFL player Jim Browne works with his son Jonathan, 3, on a series of exercises to build strength, coordination and confidence.

Observer & Eccentric | Sunday, August 22,2004

Reducing cholesterol lowers your risk of heart disease, stroke Traditional medications were not enough to lower Renee Reinke's sky-high cholesterol level. But preventive cardiologists at the University of Michigan Health System were able to offer the 52-year-old an alternative. Cholesterol apheresis is a blood-filtering technique similar to kidney dialysis that strips the s blood of LDL cholesterol to help lower the levels of this artery-clogging substance. UMHS is one of a handful of centers across the country, and the only one in Michigan, to offer this technique. The technique is not a first-line treatment for people with high cholesterol. Initially, patients are encouraged to lose weight, follow a healthy diet, exercise more or take any of several lipidlowering medications. For approximately one in 300,000 people, these methods aren't enough to achieve the goal. There are two types of cholesterol in our blood - low density lipoprotein, or LDL, and high density lipoprotein, or HDL. LDL is laiown as the "bad" cholesterol because it sticks to the lining of the blood vessels, narrowing them and raising the risk of heart attack, stroke or angina pain. High levels of LDL cholesterol are linked to an increased risk of dying from cardiovascular disease. HDL cholesterol actually removes harmful cholesterol from the blood vessels. Patients receive cholesterol apheresis treatment once every two to three weeks. A catheter is placed in one arm to drain the blood. The machine separates the red and white blood cells from the plasma. The LDL is then removed from the plasma and the plasma is returned back to the body with the patient's own blood cells. Because the patient's own blood is returned, there's no risk for external infections. The procedure takes about two to three hours. "Typically we reserve LDL apheresis for patients who have failed lifestyle changes and multiple drugs to achieve their goals for LDL cholesterol. It's not a first line therapy in anybody because there are many other options, including lifestyle changes, weight loss, diet and multiple medications to achieve the goal," said Dr. Robert Brook, a hypertension and vascular specialist at UMHS and assistant professor of internal medicine at the U-M Medical

School. For those people who do require cholesterol apheresis, it is highly effective. Studies indicate it lowers the risk of cardiovascular events by 50 percent to 70 percent, compared to patients receiving traditional therapy. LDL apheresis may be indicated for people whose LDL levels are higher than 3 0 0 mg/dl or for those with coronary heart disease whose LDL levels are 2 0 0 mg/dl or higher. It is only used if the patient cannot lower his or her cholesterol through lifestyle changes and medications or if the medications are not tolerated. Recommended total cholesterol should be less than 2 0 0 , 2 0 0 - 2 3 9 is borderline high, 240 or above, high. Cardiologists recommend H D L levels of 45 mg/dl or higher. Recommended LDL levels vary depending on your risk. Less than 160 is considered good for most people, less than 130 for people with increased risk of heart disease, and less than 100 for people with heart disease, diabetes, peripheral artery disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm or symptomatic carotid artery disease To keep your cholesterol low by eating right, exercising and not smoking. Here are some tips: • Eat fruits, vegetables, beans and whole grains every day. Avoid foods high in fat, especially saturated fat, such as butter or meat. • Look for healthier polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. • Use oils like sunflower, safflower, canola, olive and corn instead of palm or coconut. • Choose chicken, turkey or fish over red meat. • Use egg whites instead of whole eggs. • Replace whole milk dairy with nonfat or low-fat milk, cheese or yogurt. • Reduce fried foods, vending machine choices and fast food. t • Exercise at least 20 minutes every other day. TVy swimming, jogging, walking or bicycling. • Have your cholesterol levels checked once a year. •

"Jonathan is the classic example of typical kid, great when in the mood for it and terrible when he's not," said Browne, a Clarkston resident. "He fights me on things and I walk away. I try to make it fun. Every parent has their own way, tricks for having fun with their child." Jonathan's progress to part three hasn't been without problems.

Basements have come a long way since the days of chilly, damp rec rooms with low ceilings, dark paneling and cast-off furniture. Today's basements may have plush home theaters, weight rooms and saunas, climate-controlled wine cellars, lap pools and dance floors, along with bedrooms, baths and kitchenettes. Finishing an unused lower level is a way to gain livirig space at a lower cost than adding to the footprint of the home. Even so, the nationwide average price tag for a basement remodeling/finishing project is around $43,000. The actual cost depends on the homeowner's vision for the space and can easily top, six figures. Design and construction pros agree t h a t with sound planning, creative thinking and today's newest building materials, it is possible to create a basement that is warm and comfortable, light and just as appealing as the main floor of the house. Whether you are building a, new home with a finished lower level or finishing the basement in your current house, here are some basic considerations to keep in mind: • Address dampness as the first step in a.basement project so that flooding, mold or musty smells won't ruin your investment. Get a qualified professional to identify the source of any water problems, including seasonal seepage, and prescribe afix.Install one or more sumj> pumps, with one powered by a battery or generator in case of a power failure. Use a dehumidifier and install proper ventilation for adequate air exchange.

Deadlines: To place, cancel or correct ads.

• Plan ahead and cluster your utilities and mechanical systems, such as the fur-

nace and hot water heater, in one place, away from the living areas, to reduce noise and maximize the amount of finished space. Make sure all your contractors know of your plans for finishing the basement. Wiring, plumbing, heating and cooling systems should be installed so that they are easily accessible and have minimal impact on living space and" headroom. • Get your living space off the cold concrete. Rick Angelico, a partner in Hampton RMR, a residential construction firm in Easthampton, N.Y., suggests installing a DRIcore subfloor. The DRIcore system consists of interlocking 2-by 2-foot squares that are set directly on top of the concrete to form a floating floor over which carpet, vinyl, laminate or engineered hardwood may be installed. "Because it's a wood product, it's softer to walk on than concrete," Angelico said. It's quick and easy enough for a do-ityourselfer, he said, because it doesn't require any framing. "You just set the squares on top of the concrete and tap them together." • Let in the light. If you are building a new home or planning an extensive remodel, specify generously-sized windows in walk-out or daylight basements. If you have an existing basement with a few tiny transom windows and a tight budget, you'll need to be more creative to achieve a light and inviting room. Consider using strategically placed spotlights to add drama. Charles Riley, a New York interior designer who tackles basement projects with creativity and flair, suggests framing a large panel of frosted glass or other quality translucent material to create a

shoji screen effect. Install the panel with a light behind it, in or against a basement wall and below a transom window, to give the illusion of a full-length window through which filtered sunlight shines. • Don't skimp on quality. Create whatever style you desire, but be sure to finish the lower level with the same quality as the main floors of the home. That means using drywall rather than paneling, and quality detailing and

workmanship. 'You are making an investment in your home and your quality of life," said Karl Holtermann, project manager at Bartelt-Filo Design Build. "If a remodeled basement is a great source of enjoyment for your family, then the payback is measured in far more than monetary value." ^ For more basement ideas, visit www.dricore.com.

PRNewswire - The booming trend in "television fix-it shows" has homeowners all across the United States attempting projects they do not have the skills to accomplish. Wallpaper that sticks everywhere but the wall. A crooked tile backsplash. A leaky roof. For many homeowners, what was supposed to be a weekend of home improvement projects, many times, turns into a disaster of

epic proportions. Just recently, a House Doctors franchisee was able tofixa "do-it-yourself" project gone bad, when a Louisiana man attempted to install a new front door. Nightfall was nearing and the man was unable to properly hang the door, leaving his girlfriend i n a panic that she might not be able to lock, or even close, her front door that night.

This story, along with thousands of others, is becoming commonplace because of the influx of television home improvement shows, said Steve Cohen, president of House Doctors - a national home improvement/repair franchise. Sometimes, the best prevention of a "do-it-yourself" disaster is planning and practice, and knowing when to call a professional. Tim Carter of www.askthe-
