readership study tells us the same thing — that the Hot lines are far and away the most desired, the most read, and the most popular component of the Times. To those of you who indignantly demand that the Times require a source for all Hot line comments…well, that is simply not practical. In today’s technologically advanced environment, there is no reliable method to verify authorship of any open forum commentary. Besides, anonymity, more often than not, fosters the truth. And anonymity is the secret sauce that drives the success of the Hot lines.
That leaves the Times with the simple decision to either publish Hot lines, or eliminate them…there is no other option.
And so the Times will continue to publish the Hot lines.
And the Times will continue to be the voice of the people.

Township ponders purchase of mobile home park
More than $1 million owed in
delinquent taxes to county
By William Axford
Tyrone Twp. — Tyrone Township has found itself in a bit of a financial bind. Cider Mill Crossing, a mobile home park located in the township, will be part of a public auction in Lansing on Sept 28. Township officials are debating whether to purchase the mobile home park. Also owed is $1,334,540 in delinquent taxes to Livingston County from Cider Mill Crossing, which is located at Old U.S. 23 and Parshallville Road in Tyrone Township. When factoring in county interest and administration fees, the township must pay $1,757,883 back to Livingston County. Due to laws in Livingston County, all delinquent taxes within a municipality are collected by the county. “The biggest risk “Either way,

The best-case scenario for Tyrone Township would involve an outside bidder committed to running Cider Mill Crossing. Such a scenario seems unlikely however as the owner of Cider Mill Crossing could collect revenue without paying taxes, forcing Tyrone Township
to pay the delinquent taxes.

or buy it and run it.” The sewer bond rate for Cider Mill Crossing is $225,000. The board discussed the possibility of buying Cider Mill Crossing for $1 million in order to retain the highest return on rebates possible. If an investor bought Cider Mill Crossing for $1 million, the township would receive a rebate of $779,600 split between various funds. An additional $717,232 sewer bond rate would also be paid to the township. However, if only $100,000 is invested into the mobile home park, Tyrone Township will receive a $77,960 rebate from various funds and $71,723 from a sewer rebate fund. The board of trustees voted to table further discussion in lieu of new information and to hold a special meeting before the Sept. 28 auction. The specific date and time for the special meeting has not been scheduled yet. Need a New Roof?

Emergency sirens approved
Rose Township is one step closer to
having full emergency siren coverage.
Last week, the Rose Township Board
of Trustees approved a cost participation agreement with Oakland County
for sirens. The issue has been moved
to the planning commission for approval, said Supervisor Alison Kalcec.
The township’s portion of the cost will
be $69,000. Kalcec expects installations to begin in late fall. Currently, the
township has no sirens of its own.
Enhanced recycling
The Rose Township Board of Trustees
has approved enhanced recycling
service for the township, which will
expand items that residents can drop
off on Oct. 1, at the North Oakland
County Fire Authority (NOCFA) fire hall,
at Rose Center and Milford roads. At
no extra cost, residents will now be
able to drop off grocery bags, phone
books, plastic containers, pots and
pans, newspaper, clear glass, aluminum cans, junk mail, and office paper.
Supervisor Alison Kalcec said the
items don’t need to be sorted.

n n n IT’S PATRIOTIC TO be skeptical of Patriot
Week. I believe it is just another way to
promote a far right-wing agenda. If you
read the flyers distributed at the event,
they reveal the right-wing bias. Think about
it, how many 9-year-old girls care about
politics.
n n n I AM VERY thankful for the new yield signs
in town. As a daily runner, without those
signs, it is very hard to cross LeRoy due to
the heavy traffic. So, I apologize to you if it
delays you for an extra 30 seconds. Let’s
support the active people.
n n n EVERYBODY CLAIMS TO be working on jobs. The Problem is China. The
president and Congress have sold us
out and gave away 10 million manufacturing jobs. There’s not going to be any
recovery unless we get these jobs back.
The only way to do it is from a 25-percent tariff so that the companies will
be forced to build new factories in the
United States. And the money generated will pay off the debt. Anything less
is a joke.

I COMMEND THE Fenton football team
for their efforts with the Wounded Warrior Project. I would recommend that they
check Charity Navigator. The executive
director gets $200,000 and another officer gets $230,000. Overall score for the
program is 53.13. Their administrative and
other costs are quite high in comparison
to others.

HIT AND RUN
Michigan State Police troopers responded to an abandoned vehicle
partially blocking the roadway in the
14600 block of Dixie Highway in Holly
Township on Sept.18. The vehicle had
struck several wooden guard posts the
night before, coming to rest partially in
a ditch. The troopers found, and spoke
to the owner of the car, who directed
them to speak with his wife, who had
been driving last night. She said they
had been arguing when the accident
occurred the night before. She also
admitted to drinking, and still smelled
of intoxicants. The driver could not be
charged with an OWI because of the
time that had passed, but she was
cited for violating the basic speed law,
and failing to stop and identify at the
scene of a property damage crash.
LOST COW
On Sept. 16, Michigan State Police
troopers were dispatched to property
on the 1100 block of Terrace Road in
Davisburg. The property owner needed
assistance collecting a cow that had
moved to a neighbor’s property, and the
neighbor was threatening to shoot the
cow. The state troopers helped to keep
the cow under control until the owner
could bring a truck with a trailer.
FAKE $10 BILL
The Holly Police Department was notified of a possible counterfeit $10 bill
on Sept. 15. An officer was sent to the
village offices to investigate the complaint. A Holly Village employee turned
over the suspected fake bill to the
officer, so that it could be inspected further. The officer was unable to see the
required watermark. The owner of the
bill did not know where they acquired
it; however, they believed they received
change in the Fenton area. The officer
confiscated the bill for evidence.
ATTEMPTED BREAK-IN
On Sept. 14, a Holly police officer was
sent to a business in the 100 block of
Battle Alley to investigate an attempted
burglary. The responding officer spoke
with a sales clerk who said that when
she arrived at the business to open it
up, she discovered that someone had
attempted to break into the business
through the lower level main entrance
door. The officer noticed several old
pry marks and one fresh pry mark on
the door. The door handle was also
broken. The suspect(s) did not gain
entry into the business. Police believe
that a 26-year-old suspect in a Sept.

WHAT IS WITH the runners from Fenton

n n n ALL I HAVE heard from Republicans
since Obama was elected is that he is
200 feet from this business, may be responsible for this attempted burglary.
The scene was processed for evidence and the case was turned over to
detectives for further investigation.
NEPHEW STEALS TRUCK
The Holly Police Department is investigating a stolen vehicle complaint.
The theft occurred from a home in
the 800 block of Elm Street on Sept.
11. The complainant said her nephew
lived with her and that he asked to use
her truck. She told the officer that she
never gave her nephew permission to
drive her truck. She told police that she
saw her nephew drive off with the truck
but did not call right away because
she did not want to get him in further
trouble. She eventually called when
he failed to return the truck. She told
police that her nephew might be in the
Flint area at a suspected Meth house.
The case remains under investigation.
The truck is described as a green 1997
GMC Sierra pickup truck.
LOST AND INTOXICATED
At 3 a.m. on Monday, Sept. 12, a
deputy with the Genesee County Sheriff’s Department responded to a home
in the 12000 block of Jennings Road
to investigate a report of a suspicious
male. Det. Sgt. Bill Lanning said a homeowner called 911 after a white male
was observed screaming and banging on their door. The deputy made
contact with the 20-year-old Davisburg
male, who was intoxicated. The man
was not sure where he was. He was
arrested for disorderly person and
lodged at the Genesee County Jail.
MAN CAUGHT TRYING TO BREAK
INTO WOMAN’S VAN
On Tuesday, Sept. 13, a deputy with
the Genesee County Sheriff’s Department responded to a business parking lot in the 14000 block of Fenton
Road after an employee observed a
white male attempting to break into an
employee’s vehicle. The deputy made
contact with the suspect, a 47-year-old
Fenton Township man, who admitted
he was trying to get into a woman’s
van. The man was arrested for disorderly person and lodged at the county
jail. While in custody, the man admitted
to breaking into the same woman’s
van more than 20 times in the past
month to commit lewd acts. The case
remains under investigation.

do not become an issue to academics. “The academic integrity of the classroom is always at risk,” said Reynolds who acknowledges that the potential is there for students to snap a quick photo of a test and send it to another student in a matter of seconds. “We’re trying,” he said. When tests are out, all electronic devices must be put away.
Students are not the only ones who violate the school’s policy on cell phone
use. Reynolds said oftentimes it’s the parents, who send a text message to their child, and help the student break the rule. He added that if students truly needed to use their cell phone during the day, all they have to do is go into the office and ask for permission.
Teachers also interact with their students online through the district’s website and their fusion webpage. The site’s Blackboard page encourages back-and-forth communication between teachers and their students.

There are now so many ways to communicate, such as the social networking site, Facebook, Twitter and Smartphones.
Facebook’s mission is to give people the power to share and make the world more open and connected. Twitter is a real-time information network that connects anyone to the latest information about what he or she finds interesting. Smartphones are high-end mobile

was married to Scott Brancheau, the son of John and Terry Brancheau, of Fenton Township.
A Lengthy weeklong hearing began Monday and lawyers for OSHA said in court that they believe the 6-ton killer whale, Tilikum, grabbed Brancheau by the arm.
According to the Orlando Sentinel, OSHA’s conclusion was based in part on the testimony of a SeaWorld Orlando security officer. Park officials have said that the whale grabbed her ponytail as it drifted into his mouth, while OSHA lawyers contend that the whale’s actions were a more serious and dangerous matter. OSHA argued that SeaWorld Orlando’s animal trainers couldn’t work safely while in close contact with the world’s largest ocean predator. Lawyers also challenged the accuracy of an internal log that SeaWorld kept, which was supposed to document and analyze every aggression incident over the last 23 years. Lawyers argued that not all acts of aggression were recorded.
SeaWorld Orlando attorneys argued that Brancheau’s death was an isolated tragedy.
Video footage has shown that the whale repeatedly struck and thrashed Brancheau and pulled her under water now available

as she attempted to escape. An autopsy revealed she died from drowning and traumatic injuries.
OSHA cited SeaWorld for three safety violations, including one classified as “willful,” a $75,000 fine in August 2010. “SeaWorld recognized the inherent risk of allowing trainers to interact with potentially dangerous animals,” said Cindy Coe, OSHA’s regional administrator in Atlanta, Ga. “Nonetheless, it required its employees to work within the pool walls, on ledges and on shelves where they were subject to dangerous behavior by the animals.”
The whale that attacked Brancheau was also involved in the death of an animal trainer in 1991, at a park in Canada. SeaWorld had forbidden trainers from swimming with this whale because of its dangerous past, but allowed them to interact, by touching him while they were lying on the pool edge in shallow water, according to OSHA investigation.
The OSHA investigation also revealed that SeaWorld trainers had an extensive history of unexpected and potentially dangerous incidents involving killer whales at its various facilities, including its location in Orlando. Despite this record, management failed to make meaningful changes to improve the safety of the work environment for its employees.

Jim Berg, co-owner of Fenton Lanes,

A history of Bowling
According the International History
and Bowling Hall of Fame,
bowling may have started
in Germany as early as 300
A.D. Some form of bowling was very popular in
England in the 13th century,
and variations were being
played across Europe. Bowling came to America with
British, German and Dutch
immigrants, and endured
a rocky relationship with
the cities in which the
game was played. In
1841, a law in Connecticut made it illegal to
maintain bowling lanes,
because of the gambling
involved at the time. In 1895,
pin sizes were standardized,
and league competition was
formed. Today, bowling is played
by 95 million worldwide in more than
90 countries.
pins, also keeps him busy. The pins themselves are coated plastic, with a maple wood core. After a month of use, Berg lets a set “rest” back in dated boxes behind the return machines. This allows the pins to re-expand to their correct shape after being beaten on by the bowling balls. Sometimes, he has to send them back to be resurfaced. While Jim keeps the machines humming along, Jennifer works to provide hospitality to her guests, for 12 hours at a time. She points to the majority of her customers, identifying them by name. “We work hard in the winter,” she said. The business just opened for the season at the end of August, and they close down during the summer.
Jennifer stocks the bar with Michigan beer and wine, even trying to buy local grease to cook with.
Their business dropped at least slightly with the smoking ban, but Jennifer decided to see the positive side. “On the upside, more families are coming,” she said, which includes more kids’ birthday parties.
To Jennifer and her family, a bowling alley ends up being a microcosm of the tri-county area, almost like a community center. The core of a bowling ball is cork, foam, plastic or ceramic. The core of a bowling alley, at least in this area, is made of family, friends, and good times. Highest Payouts

After a new local church

of about $10,000 $10,000 from
was discovered. the church.
The church hired an attorney to look into the matter and to contact the suspect, a 58-year-old Flint woman, and former member of the church. The suspect managed the gift card orders submitted by church members and accepted their payments. She is suspected of ordering numerous gift cards for her personal use and not paying for them. The church is still responsible, however, for paying for the gift cards that the suspect ordered and did not pay for.
The church went to police after attempts to reach the suspect were unsuccessful. The case remains under investigation and attempts are being made to contact the suspect.
Focus
on
Vision
By: Dr. Juan Alvarado
Eyes on Learning
Going back to school ramps up the
visual demands on your child drastically.
There are many visual tools kids need in
order to learn effectively.
Multiple visual systems/tools are used
in school that can break down and many
are not obvious to the parent or teachers.
The easy one to spot is poor visual acuity
(if the kid can’t see the chalk board, dingding-ding…there’s a problem).
Other equally or more devastating
visual problems that decrease a child’s
learning potential are visual fatigue and
poor eye teaming/visual coordination
to name a couple. Both drastically
decrease reading (books, computer,
chalkboard) and comprehension at all
ages.
Insidious medical problems often are
present as well that are hard to detect
such as mild lazy eye or a small eye turn
that only occurs during reading. The
latter by the way is extremely hard to
detect without an eye doctor specifically
looking for it.
With most of these conditions the
child is 100% unaware these problems
are occurring.
Often I have seen kids that appear to
have ADD or Dyslexia who simply need
eye exercises or therapeutic lenses
which improve concentration and visual
organization.
Standard eye exams and screenings
are not enough to effectively isolate
vision learning problems and that’s why
we always perform many extra tests and
employ very high tech equipment with
each and every eye exam we perform.

uLocal artists encourage
others to pick up brushes,
explore self expression
By William Axford
Floyd Tymrak spends his mornings blending colors and manipulating paintbrushes. He reels through images from his past, conjuring a scene and eventually transforms a white canvas into a work of art. Tymrak is an artist who lives at Shiawassee Shores in Linden. His art Summary studio is located in uArtists in the a small corner of his tri-county area
garage. Surrounded say that art
by stacks of wooden comes from
practice and
beams and tools acthat anyone

commit to it.
ing has been a lifelong desire longer than it has been a lifelong passion. It wasn’t until he reached age 70 that he decided to pick up a paintbrush. “When I first started, I would pack up my stuff in the middle of class and go home,” he said remembering his frustrating first lessons at a retirement home in Owosso. “All the girls in class would tease me and ask if I was going home to mother. I did that twice and never walked out again.”
His persistence has paid off as murals of farms and country life now populate his home. A dominate piece
Floyd Tymrak, 89, of Linden, paints in his
small makeshift studio in his garage at
Shiawassee Shores retirement community
on Tuesday. He didn’t pick up a paintbrush
until he was 70 years old.
Advice for the
beginning artist
• Always keep learning — study
your past works and see how your
art has changed. Study works
from other artists and look for what
makes them great. Take a foray
into a subject you know nothing
about, to stretch your creativity.
• Start projects right away —
procrastination is the enemy of
creativity. Start early and you’ll
finish often.
• Rejection comes to everyone
— ignore other people’s negativity, or at least take it with a grain
of salt. Only those who push past
rejection ever have the chance at
being successful.
• Uniqueness equals success
— it’s true that copying what’s
popular in art may bring short term
success, while doing things your
own way may take longer.

I paint

I love it.

Laughter is good for your health
•Laughter relaxes the whole body.
A good, hearty laugh relieves
physical tension and stress, leaving
your muscles relaxed for up to 45
minutes after.
•Laughter triggers the release of
endorphins, the body’s natural feelgood chemicals. Endorphins promote an overall sense of well-being
and can even temporarily relieve pain.
•Laughter boosts the immune system. Laughter decreases stress
hormones and increases immune
cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving your resistance
to disease.
•Laughter protects the heart. Laughter improves the function of blood
vessels and increases blood flow,
which can help protect you against a
heart attack and other cardiovascular
problems.
umor is infectious. The sound of roaring laughter is far more contagious than any cough, sniffle, or sneeze. When laughter is shared, it binds people together and increases happiness and intimacy. In addition to the domino effect of joy and amusement, laughter also triggers healthy physical changes in the body. Humor and laughter strengthen your immune system, boost your energy, diminish pain, and protect you from the damaging effects of stress. Best of all, this priceless medicine is fun, free, and easy to use.
Laughter is a powerful antidote to stress, pain, and conflict. Nothing works faster or more dependably to bring your mind and body back into balance than a good laugh. Humor lightens your burdens, inspires hopes, connects you to others, and keeps you grounded, focused, and alert.
With so much power to heal and renew, the ability to laugh easily and frequently is a tremendous resource for surmounting problems, enhancing your relationships, and supporting both physical and emotional health.

When losing is winning
‘Do you recognize me?’ a woman asked following a service at her church. ‘I know I should,’ I replied, trying to remember her name. ‘I’ve lost 90 pounds since you were here last,” she announced proudly.
No wonder I hadn’t remembered her. What made her success in slimming possible? Self-control she had gained through prayer. In trusting God for strength, she had found the discipline she needed to achieve her weight loss goal and knowing I had written on the subject was eager to tell me of her desired accomplishment.
Not everyone appreciates my long effort to help those struggling with this very personal problem. ‘A minister writing about losing weight?’ one questioned. Some do more than question.
While being interviewed on a call-in radio talk show, I was scolded soundly by a listener who called to complain about my Biblical approach to weight loss. She accused me of using valuable time and effort to teach concepts on a subject in which God has no interest.
At one time, I would have agreed with this angry caller. Now, I know I was wrong.
God is interested in helping us overcome every problem we face. Since He ARTIST

of artwork includes a man holding the reins of wild horses pulling a carriage, a painting that covers the door to his workstation. “I paint because I love it. It gives me something to do. At 90, there’s not much else I can do,” Tymrak said. Tymrak believes that anyone can be an artist, as long as he or she has the drive and a great instructor. Professional artist and Fenton resident Sally Bright is a participant of the Grand Rapids ArtPrize this year. ArtPrize is an international art competition with nearly half million dollars in prize money. First place wins $250,000. The general public will determine the 10 prizewinners through voting.
Bright said that artists get better by “doing art, studying art, and then doing art some more.”
“You have to do art every single day. Look at what you’ve done and look at what you can improve on,” she said. Over time, an artist will only get better and better. Bright’s art goes beyond canvasses. $
cares about flowers, clothing them with beauty (Matthew 6:28-30), we can be sure He cares about our health, our appearance and all of our other needs. If we mean more to our Heavenly Father than fowl or flowers, He must be interested in all the problems that eat away at us, taking away the joy of living.
A friend of mine had such a severe weight problem that at age 19, he was confined to bed. He weighed 750 pounds and spasmodic weight loss efforts were but temporary fixes. In the early hours of one morning, he stared at the ceiling and said, ‘Lord, I’m impossible. Make me possible!’
The next morning my friend found strength enough to walk across his room and shortly after that was able to walk across the yard. He then committed himself to discipline in eating and exercise, which, over time, enabled him to lose 600 pounds.
Richard Ely, a busy pastor, wrote to me saying he had found success in losing weight through walking. He said he had to admit that his weight problem had been spiritual and by the time his letter arrived, his faith commitment had enabled him to lose 50 pounds. Describing his new way of life, he said, ‘I’ve discovered the time walking is a precious time when I can talk and listen to the Lord and enjoy the beauty of His creation.’
On the wall of my study are the words ‘God can move your mountain.’ Name your mountain and God can move it! He moves hills and bumps in the road, too.

Instead, she bends rattan and pieces of palm trees into fiber sculptures. She communicates abstract ideas and concepts through colors and different shapes that she sculpts. Many of her pieces have the illusion of motion, accentuated by curves and indents. Whether by utilizing a brush or weaving materials into a sculpture, residents in the tri-county area are exploring their artistic skills. And, as Tymrak proves, it doesn’t matter if you are 9 or 90 years old.
“The first thing you have to do is find a qualified teacher,” advises Tymrak. “Find an instructor that will teach you all the techniques.” For tri-county area residents looking to discover some of their artistic skill, the Fenton Community & Cultural Center and Loose Senior Citizen Center in Linden offer programs for beginning artists. The Fenton Artist Guild meets every Wednesday from 9:30 to 11:20 a.m. A volunteer painting instructor is present at the senior center every Monday starting at 10 a.m. For more information, call the community center at (810) 629-2512 and the senior center at (810) 735-9406. 18,000,000

Humidifier May Help
Dog’s Skin Allergy
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I have just read your
column about “Cara,” the 7-year old dog with skin allergies that itches and scratches terribly. My dog had
this problem, too, and I was helped by the Tibetan Terrier Club of Canada with a very simple solution -- run a
humidifier for at least eight hours per day in the room
where “Cara” sleeps. I did this with my scratchy fellow,
and the problem was solved within a few days! Neither
my vet nor groomer had ever heard of such a thing. I
also switched to Science Diet Sensitive Skin kibbles.
No more scratching at my house. Hope you can pass
this on to Cara’s owner.
-- Pattie R., via e-mail
DEAR PATTIE: Thanks for the helpful advice! A change
in diet and the humidifier may have a positive effect on
Cara’s allergies. Pets can be very sensitive to seemingly
benign dog or cat foods, and it’s often a trial-and-error
process to find a diet that such pets can tolerate. Be sure
to include your pet’s veterinarian in the process so that he
or she knows what your pet is eating and is able to offer
advice and expertise that could help.
The Tibetan Terrier Club of Canada can be found online at
www.tibetanterriercanada.com. The site has
general information
about the Tibetan Terrier breed and basic
care guidelines, as
well as links to other
Tibetan Terrier clubs
around the world.

Friend chooses new
running buddy
DEAR AMY: I have had a close friend for the
last few years and we have done a lot of things
together. In fact, I have spent more time with
this particular friend than with
Amy Dickinson
anyone else. In addition to
our friendship, we were running and workout partners.
Several months ago he met a
girl. I am happy for him. The
problem is that she is very
controlling and manipulative.
In the past month my friend
has quit running with me. He
says he needs a break and
he seldom works out with
me now. He says that we are
still friends and always will
be. The problem is that I feel
slighted. I feel like this friend
is distancing himself from me. To make matters more difficult, I am his supervisor. I feel
like ending the friendship and severing all ties
with him -- including our working relationship
-- because there is no way for us to avoid each
other at work because we work directly with
each other.
This has taken a toll on me. Any advice?
— Troubled Friend
SundayJumble
Ask
Amy
DEAR TROUBLED: Your friend seems to have a
weakness for manipulative and controlling people,
because you are quite obviously attempting to manipulate and control him. You cannot change your
friend and you cannot make him break up with his
girlfriend, regardless of her suitability. Instead, you
need to examine your own behavior and make an
effort to change your perspective. You are not being
fair, and if you fire or demote your friend because
of this, he will have legal recourse against you and
your company. I suggest you seek psychological
help to work through what seems to be a very unhealthy, toxic and obsessive cycle. In the meantime,
back off and give this person -- and this relationship
-- plenty of space.
DEAR AMY: I am a junior in high school. I am a
good student, a member of many clubs and organizations, and play a varsity sport. My family
is very close-knit. I have never given my parents
any reason not to trust me. I don’t drink or party,
I never use profanity, and -- as a chronic perfectionist -- I always try to please them. Recently, I
got a Facebook page. My parents check it once
a day, though they don’t have Facebook themselves (other relatives are on Facebook). My
family seems to think that they should have jurisdiction over what I post. For example, if I post
“rough day today,” they tell me that I’m moping
and to get over myself. If I post that I received
an award, they’ll tell me I sound arrogant. I had
to take down pictures from my homecoming
dance because both my aunt and my grandmother called my mother to say I looked like a
prostitute because I wore makeup. The dress I
wore covered my shoulders and went past my
knees. I feel as if they control me so much that I
can’t create my own identity. I know they’re looking out for me, but it hurts when your mother
tells you family members think you look like a
prostitute. I love them very much, but I wish my
parents would let me live my own life. Do I just
sound like a whining teenager?

PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D.
To your
good health
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: What is the difference between anxiety and panic attack? I am claustrophobic, and I need to fly from the West Coast to the East
Coast and back. I can’t do so because of my problem. I have tried therapy several times, but it did not
help. I do not want to go that route again. Can you
give me some suggestions on how to be able to fly
with this problem? Is there a medicine I could take
before I get on the plane? -- Anon.
ANSWER: Anxiety is excessive worry. In some cases,
worry is appropriate. But with pathological anxiety, the
worry is about things that don’t merit worry or about
imagined things that truly merit no concern. Under “anxiety disorders” are many different conditions, each with
a slightly different set of symptoms. They all share some
things in common.
Panic attacks are the sudden onset of terror in places
where such terror is inappropriate. The attack builds to
a high point in a matter of 10 minutes or less. The attack
can take place in a perfectly neutral situation, like shopping in the grocery store. During an attack, the heart
beats fast, people become short of breath, and they often
sweat and fear they are at death’s door.
Phobias are unreasonable fears of people, places and
things that don’t engender fear in others. Claustrophobia
is the fear of being in an enclosed space, like an airplane.
Phobias can bring on a panic attack. Maybe your phobia
is not so much a fear of enclosed space but a fear of
flying.
I’m not certain these distinctions are of importance to
you. The important thing for you is to uproot whatever it is
that paralyzes you when you must board an airplane or to
blunt it so you can function. Mental health professionals
can get you over anxiety, panic attacks and phobias. I’m
not positive what you mean by “going that route” again.
Do you mean a detailed probing into your childhood and
such matters? That isn’t usually necessary. The doctor
might prescribe a medicine that calms you and that you
take only when needed. You won’t become dependent on
that medicine every day of your life. You use it only for the
situation that throws you into such high anxiety.
News
delivered
to you
daily
DEAR TEEN: The good news is that I understand
the classic teen rebellion musical “Footloose” is
being re-released this month. The bad news is that
your family seems to have provided the plot. From
my perspective, your folks are lucky you haven’t
pushed back in the knee-jerk and (sometimes foolish) way that teens do when they feel smothered.
Your parents are being very disrespectful. However,
Facebook is public (to a degree). If your folks didn’t
look over your shoulder at your postings, other
family members would report you to them. Keep a
private diary (offline and for your own expressions),
and if someone in your family insults you, respond
to them by saying, “Wow. That hurt my feelings. I
deserve better.”

Fenton volleyball keeps streak alive, defeats Bronchos
By Al Zipsie
Holly — The Michigan High School
Athletic Association televised Tuesday’s
volleyball game, and the Holly student section came out with signs, dressed up to support their Bronchos.
The fans did not get a chance to be really
vocal, as they didn’t have much to cheer
about. Fenton swept the Bronchos in three
sets 25-7, 25-13 , 25-21 in a Metro League
match. Fenton, who is still looking to get its
offensive identity, dominated the net play.
“We struggled hitting a
lot Saturday (at the Rockford
Tournament going 0-4 against tough competition). Tonight, the kills were pretty efficient,” Fenton coach Linda Rusaw said.
“Potentially, we are strong with hitting.
We just have not hit the ball well.”
“Really, in our front row,
we can go to anyone to put
it away with kills,” said
sophomore Ashley Bearden. “We were a
little
scared coming in with the graduation of three key players,
but the current seniors
have really stepped it up
for us.”
Behind Bearden’s
serving,
Fenton
scored eight points
in a row to take a
12-3 lead in the
opening game.

Fenton, Holly end key contest in scoreless verdict
By David Troppens
Holly — Goals have been tough to come
by for the Fenton and Holly varsity soccer
teams at times this year.
On Wednesday, that epidemic reached
both teams once again as the two teams
battling for the top spot in the Metro fought
to a 0-0 tie.
The draw doesn’t hurt Fenton nearly
as badly as Holly. The Tigers (2-0-1) still
can win out this season and win the Metro
League title. Meanwhile, the Bronchos (10-2 in the Metro) now probably need to
win out and still need some help to defend
their championship.
“Worse things could’ve happened,” said
Fenton keeper Derek Jenkins, who posted
his seventh shutout of the season during the
contest. “We weren’t happy. We wanted to
win. They’ve been our rivals for years, but
we just have to keep working hard. The
Metro League is still possible. It’s in our
own hands, so there’s no worries. We just
have to win out.”
The Bronchos probably had the best
chances to break the tie, but never were
able to do it. In the first half, Holly missed
a penalty kick that was shot off frame. In
the second half, the Bronchos enjoyed an

West on Tuesday.

8-3 shot edge. For the contest, Jenkins
made 10 saves, while Holly keeper Ryan
St. John posted his fourth shutout of the
season with four saves. The Bronchos have
allowed just three goals all season long,
but their lack of offense has them with just
one win in three Metro contests.
“If you don’t put the ball in the net, you
can’t win,” Holly coach Mike Steibel said.
“That’s just the way it is. I thought as a
match up, we were better than Fenton, but
you have to finish in the offensive third.
They had some chances ... but we didn’t
finish. We have days we can and days we
can’t. At least we have days that we can
sometimes.”
It’s not like the Tigers have scored a
ton of goals in Metro contests lately themselves. They defeated Linden on Sept. 14
when Fenton scored with just 11.6 seconds
left. If not for that goal, Fenton would be in
the same predicament as Holly.
In the second half, both teams had
chances to break the scoreless draw, but
Holly had the best of it. Fenton’s best
chance probably came with about 15 minutes left when Jake Kinsman sent a ball to
Chase Marcola. Marcola drove the field for
about a 25-yard shot, but missed the net.

Holly tied atop Metro with Brandon
Bronchos need to win league meet to assure 19th straight title
By David Troppens
Holly co-varsity boys tennis
coach Will Sophiea won’t lie.
He knows that Brandon has a
very good team. After all, for the
second straight season, the Blackhawks finished a dual meet with
Holly with a 4-4 tie earlier this
year.
“There is no doubt as long as
I’ve been around as a player or a
coach, this is the best team Brandon has ever had,” Sophiea said.
“We are definitely aware how
strong they are.”
However, don’t be expecting
the Holly Bronchos to be waving any white flags during Tuesday’s Metro League Meet. When
you are the winners of 18 straight
league titles, why would one do
so? And that’s what is at stake
Tuesday at Holly High School.
Due to that dual meet draw,
chances are, Holly or Brandon
will win the event at Bill McDaniel Tennis Complex. Whoever
does, will be the outright Metro
League champions. And the
Bronchos like their chances.
“I think there is no doubt our
kids are battle tested, will fight
and not give in,” Sophiea said.
“Even though we have young athletes, they are battlers and good
athletes. They will not give away
anything easy and will fight their
hearts out.”
The Bronchos completed their
6-0-1 dual season by defeating
Lapeer West 8-0 on Tuesday. All
eight matches were straight set
wins, with two being 6-0, 6-0 victories. Those were earned by Sam
Caldwell (No. 2 singles) and Matt
LaVallee (No. 4 singles). None of
the other matches were all that
close, either.
Connor Bilkos (No. 3 singles)
won 6-0, 6-4, while Jeff Sophiea
(No. 1 singles) won by injury default.
In doubles action, Holly winners were Parker Cuthbert and
Dillon Sink (No. 1), Taylor Mills
and Will Moller (No. 2), Aaron
Vergith and Parker Rowse (No.
3) and Connor Knudson and Morgan Baylis (No. 4).

Kenny Allen had a full-ride scholarship
offer from Oregon State.
He had other several big-name Division I football schools interested in his
services on the football field. He made a
trip to Alabama.
But when it came down to it, Allen
knew what he wanted to be all along.
So when it came down to choosing a
school to continue his punting/placekicking career, it probably was never really a
question where he was going. And recently, he verbally committed to sign with the
University of Michigan football program
as a preferred walk-on.
“My whole life, me and my brother
would play football outside and pretend
we were a team,” Allen said. “Every time
we’d pick Michigan.”
Allen has been on the radar as one of
the nation’s best punters and placekickers
for awhile now. He credits that to Chris
Sailer. Sailer holds a kicking camp, and
while attending it, Allen’s stock rose.
“I went to Chris Sailer’s camp and after
that camp, I was ranked the No. 2 in the
country,” Allen said.
Currently, Sailer had Allen ranked No.
10 in the nation, as a four-and-a-half-star
prospect out of five stars.
Allen has always been around kicking
in one way or another. Soccer has always
been big in the Allen household as well.
Eventually, that resulted in Kenny’s older
brother, Jimmy, playing youth football
and kicking for those teams. Still, Allen
was thinking about playing soccer entering his freshman year and not much about
football, until he was asked to give it a
try. Since then, Allen has only worked on
establishing his name out there. Last year
he averaged 39 yards a punt, and rarely
had the punts returned for any additional
yardage. This season, Allen had his biggest highlight of his prep football career
when he kicked the game-winning 45yard field goal against the Linden Eagles
during the second week of the season,
ending a 10-year losing streak the Tigers
had against Linden. For the season he has
made three of his four field goal attempts,
and all of his 11 extra-point attempts.
It’s still not known exactly what role
Allen will take with the team, but he senses it may include punting and kickoffs.
He’s not sure what his major will be yet,
but he is thinking about sports management and business management.
Michigan’s kicking game was among
the worst in the nation a year ago, making
just 4-of-13 field goals. The Wolverines
have made their only field goal they’ve
tried this year — a 21-yard field goal.
Punter Matt Wile is averaging 38 yards
a kick this season, with a long of 47 yards.
Allen is averaging 37.7 yards a punt this
season and has kicked about 40 percent of
his kickoffs into the end zone this season.
“I think I need to get better strength,”
Allen said. “But working with Michigan’s
strength and conditioning coaches, that
won’t be a problem.”

PREMEDICATION
In 2007 the American Heart Association in conjunction with the American Dental Association came out
with new guidelines for antibiotic premedication
for bacterial endocarditis. Endocarditis is a serious
and life-threatening bacterial infection of the lining
of the heart and heart valves. The disease is fairly
rare and usually only affects those people with an
already underlying heart condition and/or defect. The
same bacteria that attack the heart in endocarditis
also commonly live in the mouth where they are a
harmless part of dental plaque. In theory, it is thought
that these bacteria in the mouth would migrate into
the blood stream and ultimately to the heart during a
visit to the dentist. Before 1997 anybody who had a
simple heart murmer, or a history of rheumatic fever needed to be on antibiotics before going to the
dentist. This meant that between 10-20% of our patients were having to take antibiotics as a precaution
against bacterial endocarditis every time they had a
dental appointment. Now, with the new recommendations, only patients with serious heart conditions
and defects need to take antibiotics before their
dental appointment. Less that 2% of our patients now
need to be premedicated against bacterial endocarditis; and not for every dental appointment as before.
Antibiotic premedication is recommended only if
major dental work is needed. This is great news for a
lot of people who used to have to take a lot of mediation as a precaution.

Q.
A.
EXPERT
Why do I have a white
film on my dishes at
end of my dry cycle?
During 2010, dishwasher
manufactures were required to
remove phosphates from dishwasher detergent. This followed an eariler
requirement for laundry detergents.
Phospates help carry away lime from
hard water, improving cleaning performance, and preventing white lime film
from depositing on dishes, glassware
and dishwasher tank. They were removed
because they permote alge groth in lakes
and rivers, depleting oxygen levels for fish
and marine life.
Removing phosphates forced detergerant
makers to use different formulas with less
than ideal cleaning results. It affected all
dishwasher manufactures equally since
dishwashers basically spray hot water
and rely on detergents to break down and
clean food away from dishes.

Lake Fenton hangs with Goodrich, but drops 4-1 verdict
By Al Zipsie
Lake Fenton — The final score may
have not looked like it, but the Lake Fenton
varsity boys soccer team gave Goodrich a
battle before falling 4-1 in GAC Red soccer action Thursday.
“It very easily could have been tied or
a 2-1 game,” Lake Fenton coach Lenny
Glasstetter said. “Goodrich is a very good
team, but I think we actually outplayed
them in the second half. You can’t give
up three goals on set plays. We moved the
ball better, had good intensity and we are
so close.”
Goodrich, who stayed unbeaten in the
league in five outings, cashed in on its opportunities. The Martians, who spread the
scoring around to four different players,
also had a stellar effort from keeper David Doherty. Goodrich drew first blood
on a Seth Sheldon goal. Lake Fenton answered back to deadlock it at 1-all when
senior captain Brad Oldenburg scored off a
shot with his left foot and a block. Midway
through the first half, the Martians took the
lead to stay at 2-1 as Ian Gannon found his
mark on a free kick.
Lake Fenton sophomore Jacob Morrison played tough in goal, making two key
saves in the first half, allowing Lake Fenton to be as close as 2-1 at the half. Wyatt
Wilson replaced him as goalie in the second half.
“You get a lot of action in net playing a
good team like Goodrich,” said Morrison.
“We look to (playing Goodrich) every year
and try and play our best. They have some
good forwards and good passing.
“We are just looking forward to winning
some more games and getting higher in the
GAC standings.”
With just under three minutes elapsed in
the second half, Danny Garner had a goal
and Thomas Flotemersch tacked on another for a 4-1 lead. One of them was from
40 feet out and took some wind out of the
Blue Devils. Wilson made a nice stop to
keep the lead from growing, but Lake Fenton could not reach the goal. In the latter
stages of the game, Rance Hennessey had
a shot deflected out front and sophomore
Zach Oldenburg was in close range, but
his shot just was stopped by the Martians’
keeper.
“Zach almost scored,” Glasstetter said.
“I told him just put a little more spicy mustard on the shot. He was excited. We got all
19 players in the game.”
Goodrich has scored eight or more goals
four times this season. The Blue Devils did
a good job of keeping the scoring machine
in check, except for the set plays and the
fluke long shot.
“He (Morrison) played very good. A
couple set plays should have not gone
in. He stayed mentally focused,” said
Glasstetter.

When it comes to someone dominating

title in 21 years this summer at Spring
Meadows Country Club, posting a score of
SCORELESS
Later, with about 6:30 remaining, the best
chance of the second half came when Holly’s Blake Ordiway sent a cross to Gerry Andrews. Andrews shot and Jenkins made the
second-half’s best save.
“What made me a little nervous was I
couldn’t really see it,” Jenkins said. “The sun
is in a funny spot on this field. It’s usually on
one side, behind the net or behind the other
net. It was behind the corner flag on that one,
so it was kind of tough to see it.”
The final shot that was saved was a routine
shot by Holly’s Sam Caldwell with about
79-81-160. She also was the Women’s Senior Club Champion, carding a 75 in that
competition.
In the Men’s Open competition, Lou
Iordanou won the title for a second straight
year, carding a 54-hole score of 73-78-71222. Another past champion, Nick Harley,
finished second, three strokes behind Iordanou.
1:20 left in the contest.
The defenses played well. For Holly, defenders Joe Budds, Blake Cuthbert, Austin
Newcomb and Colin Banes helped keep
things clean for keeper Ryan St. John. For
Fenton defenders like Logan Bowlby, Brad
Gornick, Andrew Huntley and Alex Chase
played well.
“They have some really good offensive
players, and some speed up there, so to
keep Holly without a goal is great,” Fenton
coach Matt Sullivan said. “Our defense has
been outstanding. Just our offense is lacking right now.”

points to three as Hannah Timm scored
some points with her jump serve and
three kills. The Bronchos cut the lead to
24-21 before a missed serve won Fenton the match.
“We had some spurts. We had a lot of
touches, but need to put some straight

We need to have more fun. We need

The Tigers’ (3-0, 16-12) Metro winning streak grew to 32 consecutive

“We always play hard and are excited
about keeping (the streak) going,” said
Bearden.
“It’s hard to replace the seniors who
