“These are original paintings from the NASA museum, and they are fabulous Some of the paintings are so good they look like photographs,” said Joyce Costanza, Artrain USA chairwom­an for the stop in Plymouth, the only Wayne County community tha t is hosting the train “It’s been absolutely one of the most rewarding experiences as a volunteer that I’ve ever had ”

After a VIP party on Friday, Artrain USA is open to the public Saturday and Sunday from 10 a m to 5 p m More than 800 school children from Plymouth and Canton will visit on Monday and Tuesday, with additional public viewing those days from 2 30-5 p m Artram’s five cars will be stationed on the rail siding

Kathleen Booher—Plymouth Canton Schools Superintendent

A fter a 90-m inute m eeting w ith about a dozen community members concerned about recent attacks on the Plym outh Canton school d is tric t, Superintendent Kathleen Booher left the door open to reconsider resigning her post

“I have not ruled out the possibility of staying,” said Booher “That’s an issue I must resolve for myself very quickly ”

Quickly, because Booher is one of three finalists for the superintendent s position at Livingston County Educa­tional Service Agencv fo rm er^ the in term ed ia te school d is tr ic t The LESA Board of Education will inter­view Booher, and the other two final­ists, a second time before making its final decision

A majority of Plymouth Township’s elected officials voted to turn down pay raises for themselves Tuesday But a simple majority wasn’t enough

The board of trustees needed five votes, or a tw o-thirds m ajority, to negate salary increases for both 2002 and 2003, which a compensation com­mittee recommended Oct 8 The board had 30 days to turn down the raises, but only four members — Supervisor Steve Mann and trustees Abe Mun- fakh, Chuck Curmi and Ron Griffith — voted to do so

With a Nov 1 deadline looming, a divided Plymouth Township Board of Trustees approved the 2002 budget Tuesday

Several trustees opposed the budget, which is the first during Steve Mann’s tenure as the township’s supervisor It was important for the board to approve it Tuesday, because state law says all townships must have their budgets for the following fiscal year in place before November The township’s fiscal year begins Jan 1

Trustees Chuck Curmi, Ron Griffith, and Abe Munfakh all voted against the budget, while Mann, Clerk Marilyn Massengill, Treasurer Ron Edwards, and Trustee Kay Arnold approved it

Much of the opposition stemmed from the fact that the budget calls for spending to exceed expected revenue by $718,211 In total, expenditures are

Arnold voted to accept the recommen­dations, meaning all seven members of the board of trustees will get the fol­lowing salary increases beginning Jan 1

■ S u p e rv is o r — a 3 2-percent increase to $80,000 for 2002, and a 2 4- percent increase to $82,000 for 2003

2002 budgetexpected to be $12 8 million, while rev­enue — or money the township expects to take in — is estimated a t $12 15 million The difference will be taken from the tow nship’s fund balance, which currently stands at $4 2 million

If 2002 spending and revenue projec­tions prove to be accurate, it would be the second consecutive year the town­ship will have to dip into the fund bal­ance More than $600,000 was taken from the fund balance for 2001

“We can’t just keep taking $700,000 from the fund balance, so we can bal­ance the budget,” Munfakh said Tues­day at the board of trustees meeting

However, both Mann and Edwards said budget projections routinely show more spending than the amount of rev­enue, but rarely end up th a t way at the end of the year

“This is just a planning document We always budget on the cautious side We always overestimate spending, and

from fellow community leaders “I had no idea the silen t

However, will it be enough to keep Booher as CEO of Ply- mouth-Canton Schools9

“My ethics are such th a t I knew I had to make my decision with finality I had to know in

my heart that it was what I was going to do, because I would never want to be perceived as making the statement m order to manipulate or as a tactic to c rea te an y th in g ,” she said “How would I know m advance that my statement would cause a positive community response9 H ave I com pletely ru led out staying9 No, I haven’t ”

much of the open space m the township gone, revenue from building permits is predicted to drop 28 percent to about $650,000

L ast year, building permits brought in close to $1 million, which dropped to about $900,000 this year However, a 10-percent increase in the revenue produced by property taxes will offset the loss, bringing m an estimated $5 15 million

One of the main increases in expenditures will resu lt from adding public safety staffers, including three firefighters and three dispatchers To increase

and s treng then its command structure, the police department will be promoting two of its offi­cers to the rank of lieutenant, and will hire two new officers to replace them The public services departm en t w ill also get one additional employee

Mann said the hirings are nec­essary for the township to keep providing basic services

“We are very cautious and very prudent when it comes to spending the taxpayers money Our community has continued to grow, and we must increase per­sonnel to provide for the basic needs residents expect,” he said

Plenty of ‘wow factor’ at new Metro terminal

Take off: A Northwest Airlines jet lifts off to the east o f the new Northwest Airlines terminal last week The new parking structure, at right, is said to be the largest m the world

b y T im Sm ith Staff writertsmith@oe homecomm net

When they ta lk about the soon to-open midfield terminal at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, they use phrases such as “wow factor” and “pas senger-friendly ”

And judging by a recent walk through of the $12 billion struc ture, those observations by air port and Northwest Airlines offi cials are as on-the mark as the pilots who routinely land jumbo

jets on nearby ] runways : “O ur num- ber one prion- \ ty is to be pas-\ senger friend­

ly, to m a k e s u r e

Pe°Ple have • 'S B ■ IfWaP a p leasan t

travel experi­ence,” said the project’s construe tion m anager for N orthw est, Chuck McCloskey “We w ant people to enjoy being a t Metro Airport We want it to be the hub of choice for the eastern United States ”

Creature comforts and visual treats abound inside the 97-gate county owned facility, to official­ly be called th e Edw ard H McNamara Terminal

“Look a t th e a rch itec tu re ,” McCloskey said “The high ceil mgs and gentle curves give you the feeling of flight ”

G etting to N orth America’s 10th busiest airport will be an improvement, too A decade or so ago, when Wayne County and airport officials started getting serious about transfo rm ing

Metro into a world class termi nal, plans for a south access road were panned as a “road to nowhere ”

But very soon, motorists can exit I 275 at Eureka Road and approach the midfield terminal on three levels of five lane road­ways - each feeding 1,000 feet of curb space

Admittedly, McCloskey said Northwest - who will be the pn mary airline using the 97-gate facility - borrowed some of the best features of other U S air­ports in designing it Other air lines expected to use the termi nal include Northwest partners such as international carriers B ritish Airways, KLM and Lufthansa

Almost thereLast Thursday, some escala

tors were missing panels, work ers needed to step around con­struction debris to install wiring and tubing, dust and dirt blan keted plastic-covered seats m gate areas

“B ut th ings are v irtually done,” said airport spokesman Brian Lassahne, among those w earing hardhats and plastic eye goggles for the tour “We’re still on target for our Jan 20 opening ” The original December unveiling was moved back due to the holidays and North Ameri­can International Auto Show, slated for early January at Cobo C enter m D etroit, L assahne added

Meanwhile, McCloskey does not foresee any major design changes inside the terminal to deal w ith a irport security changes ordered by the Federal Aviation Administration in the

wake of the Sept 11 terrorist attacks - such as the elimination of curbside luggage check ins and barring the adm ittance of so-called “meeters and greeters” into gate areas

“We don’t know w hat the (FAA) policy is going to be,” McCloskey emphasized “We’ve all been m a state of flux since Sept 11 Whatever it’s going to be it will be and we’ll react to it ”

Still, when the general public finally steps into the terminal on Jan 20, 2002, probably having left their cars in the adjacent 11,500 space, 10 story parking deck, much awaits them

For example, local eateries and shops such as Buddy’s Pizza will be prominent, not to mention certain customer draws such as the Motown Cafe or Henry Ford Museum Store

Available for use or enjoyment will be 1 5 m iles of movable walkways, two elevated indoor tram s, a black m arble w ater fountain a glass ro tunda, 14 security check points, 125,000 square feet of retail shops and re s tau ra n ts , 9,000 gate-area seats and Detroit made Pewabic tile on exterior restroom facades

Because of the trams and mov­able walkways, domestic passen­gers can make connecting flights in an average of 11 m inutes, international connections can be made m 31 minutes, according to a fact sheet for the terminal

To fu rth e r ease navigation inside the terminal from gate to gate, large information boards will be strategically placed so tha t they can get on a tram if time is getting tight

As passengers exit walkways,

they will pour out into “support cores” featuring newsstands, cof fee shops, restaurants and even destination points such as the Online Cafe Bar & Grille

“When the moving sidewalk stops the customer has a lot of choices to make if he or she wants to ” McCloskey continued

World class experienceWorld Club members will get a

lot for their $400 annual mem­bership, with the facility boast ing four — count ’em - well appointed suites the largest being 20,000 square feet Mem

bers can check m with ease at ticketing counters, go to an oxy­gen bar, store laptops m lockers or even take a shower if they want to

“Showers are for the interna­tional passenger who m ight want to get freshened up before a m eeting ,” explained McCloskey

Those international travelers also won’t have to move between terminals when trying to catch a connecting flight, as they must currently do at Metro In fact, McCloskey noted how interna tional and domestic gates share

one of the modernistic terminal s three levels

And when passengers leave, those being picked up by rela­tives can jum p in to vehicles w ithout being hassled by taxi cabs or parking lot shuttle buses because those will use another pick-up point When all is said and done, the McNamara termi nal should leave quite a first impression on those passengers

“The wow factor is going to be there,” Larry Tokarski of the air­port’s special projects division said m understated fashion “It’s pretty spectacular ”

The opening of Metro Airport’s new McNa­mara Terminal this coming January will be the culmination of a project that has been in the works since 1986

The building was proposed m concept in the airport’s master plan drafted that year But it became apparent in 1988 th a t the proiect

uld truly be needed when Republic Airlines which had already designated Metro as a hub a irp o rt m erged w ith N o rth w est O rie n t A ir port spokesman B rian L assahne said the resulting airline, Northwest would eventually make Detroit its largest hub

Today the airport handles an estimated 35 5 million passengers per year about three times the number the existing airport term inals

re designed to handle If travelers often ve complaints about the existing airport, it

ought not be surprising, considering the cur rent terminals were first put up m 1957 and 1966

Since then what improvements have been made have really been “a Band-Aid approach,” intended as short term solutions only, Las- salme said

More buildingBut the construction won’t stop m January

Once the new terminal is opened, and airlines shift their operations there, the airport will begin a second project to reconstruct the cur rent terminals for more efficient operation By

2006, the project should be completed and ready to handle all the growth and traffic expected at Metro Airport through the year 2020, according to Lassahne

Airport development is no small task A key p a rt of the expansions going on there now revolves around the construction of the air­port’s fourth parallel runway That runway alone has required 10 years worth of work

Between the planning and design work

Construction boss: Chuck McCloskey of Northwest Airlines describes the features o f the new terminal

along with the required environmental impact statement and studies of the effects of airport noise on the surrounding communities, runway construction has taken a decade explained

Lassahne But the results will be significant With the additional runway operating, Metro will be able to land three planes at the same time, greatly increasing its capacity

The terminal recently renamed after Wayne County Executive Ed McNamara is also a huge project Northwest and Wayne County inked the deal for construction of the $12 bil lion mile long building back m 1996

97 g a te sTo put up the 2 million square foot building

it took 14 500 tons of s tructu ra l steel and 120 000 cubic yards of concrete

But the result will be 97 new gates, handling everything from 747s to commuter flights Travelers can make their way around the huge facility on 1 5 miles of moving walkways or rid mg a 200 passenger tram that moves from one end of the building to the other in just a few minutes, according to director of construction Chuck McCloskey

Connected to it is an 11,000 space parking deck - the largest m the world, according tp Lassahne

An international terminal will also be con nected via underground walkways Interna tional travelers never need to walk outside

Eighteen luggage carousels wall handle pas sengers’ baggage, compared to the four now operating at Metro Airport

All of it is designed, according to Chuck McCloskey, to be a “passenger friendly airport’ giving travelers a “very pleasant travel expen ence ”

It was obvious the committee’s recommendations didn’t sit well with several members, especial­ly M unfakh, who made the motion to reject them, Griffith and Curmi Both Griffith and Curmi felt it wasn’t appropriate to accept the raises as recom­mended because of the current poor economic conditions

“I agree the salaries are pretty accurate But when we are see­ing layoffs all around us, I think this board should not accept the raises and wait and see how the economy is in 2003 That’s just being sensitive to people in our community who have no job at all,” Griffith said

Curmi suggested cutting the raises in half, but the township’s ordinance prohibits the board from altering the recommenda­tions

“We need to lead by example Things are going to be a lot tighter in six months than peo­ple can imagine,” Curmi said

However, Edwards said the board had voted to form the com­m ittee to remove the politics from setting salaries for elected officials, and should therefore abide by its recommendations

“This is a big problem the board faced this year and has faced in the past,” he said “The committee did their job with due diligence If we keep second- guessing their decisions, how are we going to a ttrac t anyone to serve on it in the future9”

■ The definition of art to me changed when I became a mom It used to mean halls boasting the masterpieces of Rembrandt and Renoir, now it means inter­estingly choreographed little handprints along the walls of my house Whereas it might’ve included Calders floating over­head m some spacious gallery, now it’s black construction paper spiders hung for Halloween off my chandelier Art to me used

to mean attending a ballet or „ -• Riverdance performance, now it’s watching my children glee­fully dancing m ra in puddles , while I am reduced to exasperat- 0+ ed observer The one thing that hasn’t changed is that it contin­ues to be a means of discovery f and self-expression, like when my child picks up a scrap off the floor and shrieks, “Hey, can I make something out of this1”

VASED IN REALITYIf the purchase or gift of a

bouquet of flowers has you scurrying around the house looking for an appropriate vase, consider having a collection of vases on hand before the need anses An odd collection of vases on tables and counter tops in living areas serves as a decorative accent in and of itself A vase should be viewed as artwork for the table or mantle, and the flowers that go in it should complement not overwhelm it Oftentimes, one large accent flower as a focal point is all that is needed for a gathenng of shapely ceramics For instance a large pink protea m ay be used as a focal point among a set of three or five green vases

Floral accessories such as crystal vases, ceramic vases, bud vases pitchers and flower

■ NEW BUSINESS

learning, now known as Kumon, his son was excelling in calculus within a year

Since that time, Kumon Math and Reading C enters, which teach Kumon’s technique, have sprung up all over the world The newest Kumon center opens Saturday in Plymouth in the Plym outh Comm unity A rts Council building

Kumon, which is touted as the world’s largest after-school edu­cational program, has learning centers m 41 countries, with an enrollment of more than 2 8 mil­lion students In fact, once the Plymouth center opens, there will be 37 Kumon centers in the Metro Detroit area, including one in Canton at the Summit

According to Raman Buttar, who will be the instructor at the new Plymouth center, Kumon doesn’t use a traditional class­room lecture style, and instruc­tors don’t use a one-on-one tutor­ing method

Students, who report to the cen ter for half-hour sessions twice a week, complete two-sided worksheets at home On one side of the worksheets, students com­plete problems, and on the other they apply the problem s to everyday situations The work­sheets begin a t a very basic level, and then progress one level at a time

According to Buttar, the goal is for studen ts to grasp high school level reading and math by the tim e they leave Kumon, which is open to students from age 5 and up

“Reading and mathematics are the fundamental basics of school You can’t succeed with the other subjects without being compe­tent at math and reading Once the kids have those down, they can do well m every subject,” she said

B u tta r said Kumon is most beneficial for kids who need remedial help with their studies, because it fills m any gaps m Hie sk ills they may not have acquired m the traditional class­room setting B uttar says the reason Kumon succeeds where traditional studies have failed is that kids aren’t pressured to suc-

New in town: Raman But- tar will be the instructor when the new Kumon cen­ter opens at the Plymouth Community Arts Council building

ceed by teachers or through com­petition with other students

“The main difference between a traditional classroom setting is th a t kids are learning on their own in Kumon It is individual­ized learning The kids set the pace and really drive it them ­selves They are not being chal­lenged to keep up with others m the classroom,” Buttar said

Before getting involved with K um on, B u tta r, 29, ta u g h t English a t a charter high school in Detroit She made the switch a f te r seeing the difference a K um on cen ter m ade on a younger cousin, who learned to do algebra m just two years — by the age of 7

B uttar said the biggest thing she notices in students who suc­ceed in Kumon is an insurgence of discipline and self-confidence, which she feels translates well m their other studies, and espe­cially when taking tests such as the ACT, SAT and HEAP

“The kids m th is program develop a lot of discipline and self-confidence When they see the ir own progression, you can w atch as th e ir self-confidence soars,” she said

The Plymouth Kumon M ath and Reading center will hold a grand opening between 11 a m and 1 p m Saturday at the Ply­mouth Community Arts Council building, 774 N Sheldon For more information, contact her at (313) 377-0497 or e mail her at plymouthkumon@hotmail com

Township board should have passed on raises

Any Plymouth Township resident who paid attention to the Board of Trustees meeting Tuesday night got an interesting lesson m the economy

Apparently, the economy is performing at a level that may force the township to consider program or staffing cuts during the next fiscal year That same economy, however, appears to be performing well enough to give elected officials pay raises in each of the next two fiscal years

The township board failed to pass a resolution defeating the recommendation of its compensation commission th a t board members be given raises ranging from 3 2 to 6 4 percent m fiscal 2002, and from 2 4 to 4 8 percent in fiscal 2003

This ju st months after the clerk and treasurer got a 20-percent hike and the trustees received an increase of 75 per­cent

We had no problem w ith the raises approved back in May, other than the fact they were done at a meeting when two trustees - both of whom would have opposed the raises - were absent The clerk and the treasurer were underpaid, as was the supervisor

But we take issue with this increase These are tough economic times, with

massive layoffs going on all around us And Plymouth Township offices may not be immune Trustee Chuck Curmi men­tioned the possibility of cutting police programs such as DARE, or perhaps a redeployment or even cuts m staffing

Treasurer Ron Edwards’ budget pro­jects expenditures exceeding revenues by $718,000 Edwards claims the budget is “a working docum ent,” and th a t he expects the township, in the final analy sis, to reverse that trend That’s a pretty bold statement given today’s recessionary climate

Edwards is also quick to point out board members hadn’t had raises in sev­era l years A closer look, however, reveals th a t raises given out in 1997, 1999 and the ones handed out in May 2001 made up for the lack of increases m previous years

The newest slate of raises, which auto­matically takes effect Jan 1, was recom­mended by the township’s compensation

commission, formed in the wake of the May raises to take the township board out of the equation Members gathered information from 11 surrounding commu­nities for comparison purposes They did yeoman work and put together a fair rec­ommendation th a t would be easier to swallow under other circumstances

The commission compared Plymouth to 11 other townships of various shapes and sizes Only two of them had smaller pop­ulations, and only four of them have higher budgets But only three of the “com parable” communities pay their supervisor more, only two have higher- paid clerks/treasurers

Several of the trustees hesitated to reject the commission’s recommendation for fear of alienating them, but commis­sion member Roy H art removed tha t shield by assuring them that wouldn’t be the case “We’ve done our job What you do with it is up to you,” H art told the board

The board’s decision was to accept the raises In order to reject them, a resolu­tion would have had to be passed with a 5-2 vote, and it fell one vote short Super­visor Steve Mann and trustees Curmi, Ron Griffith and Abe Munfakh voted to reject the raises Edwards, Clerk Marilyn Massengill and Trustee Kay Arnold voted to accept the reuses

Curmi suggested slicing the raises m half, “leading by example,” but the town­ship is prevented by ordinance from doing that Griffith correctly pointed out tha t it wouldn’t look good to take raises in today’s tough economic climate Mun­fakh said board membership was more about public service than making money

Given the state of the economy and the fact trustees were just given huge raises earlie r th is year, we th ink accepting these hikes smacks of hubris, especially at a meeting where board members open­ly suggest staffing and program cuts, which m turn amount to a reduction m services to township residents

We don’t question anyone’s desire to serve their constituents We just don’t think they served them very well Tues­day mght

Anthrax outbreak calls for caution, not fear

Franklin Roosevelt told the American people in the 1930s that the only thing they had to fear was fear itself The eco­nomic depression that gripped file nation would pass with tim e Things would improve, but only if we did not let unrea­soning fear drag us under

Fear is gripping this nation again The attacks of Sept 11 led to a sudden and steep decline m air travel, delivering a crippling blow to an industry already m economic trouble

In recent weeks, biological terrorism has spread the web of fear even farther

F irst several large media companies received letters laced w ith anthrax, a bacteria tha t if inhaled can be deadly Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle received one of these deadly le tters , exposing several staff members to the bacteria This led to a parting of ways by House and Senate, with House Speaker Dennis Hastert opting to close for a few days to decontaminate the Capitol

And the fear has spread to our own communities The sight of any white powder is creating high anxiety In a recent 10-day period, a western Wayne County hazardous m aterials team has dealt with 17 calls about powder m a let­te r Many local police departments are receiving calls about suspicious white powder in everything from Christmas ornaments to dusty stock rooms to a high school m Inkster, where the powder turned out to be cocaine

In addition to fears generated by inci­dents m Washington, D C , New York and F lorida, there have been local reports of crank threats to abortion clin­ics and reports of jokesters sending fiour m the mail

Wayne County Sheriff Robert Ficano issued a stem warning to those who par­ticipate m false scares either for intimi­dation or for a twisted sense humor “We will devote the highest priority to captur­

ing you, we will seek the maximum crim­inal penalty under law, and we will go after your financial assets to pay for the costs associated with evacuating build­ings and lab testing of materials ”

We agree with Sheriff Ficano that any­one who contributes to the fear already gripping this country should be vigorous­ly pursued and prosecuted

We also believe that everyone has to balance caution with common sense Not all white powder is anthrax Anthrax is hard to contact The most common form of anthrax disease is a treatable skin infection Inhaled anthrax, which attacks the lungs, is deadly but hard to contract

Your chances of being infected with anthrax are considerably less then your chances of being injured in an auto acci­dent, yet most of us do not drive in a state of fear

Still, some common sense precautions, like a seat belt when driving, will reduce your chances even further The sheriffs office has these suggestions for those who are suspicious of letters tha t appear to have a white powder

Do not move the envelope, do not attempt to clean up any spilled material, do not shake the contents of suspicious items, do not turn on ventilation systems, do not remain m the area, do not smell the substance, do not expose the sub­stance to wind, do not walk through or track the substance around the area, do not touch any body parts until hands have been washed with soap and water

Do place unopened letter m a plastic bag, cover any spilled contents, wash hands with soap and water, place cloth­ing in plastic bag that may have come in contact w ith the substance, leave the room immediately and close doors, shut down fans, call local police department immediately

Be a le rt, be careful, bu t do not be afraid

■ Taking issue with Byers

I am writing in response to Commis­sioner Dave Byers’ “Hatred is wrong” letter to the editor m the Oct 18, 2001 issue of the Plymouth Observer, in which Mr Byers indicates he “was attacked and publicly berated at this staged event This was the worst dis­play of politics I have ever seen ”

I take issue with Mr Byers’ in ter­pretation of what occurred during that meeting What I saw was people from throughout this community coming forward to ta lk about Dr Kathleen Booher’s announcement of seeking o ther em ployment These people spoke from their hearts The emotions m that room were tangible To simply discount the opinions and feelings of those who spoke that night as coming forward ’’because they were asked to come forward for the political gain of o th e rs” is a com pletely erroneous depiction of the actual events th a t evening

Furthermore, that statement entire­ly negates these individuals’ thoughts and feelings There is no way what occurred that evening was "staged ” No director could have evoked th a t kind of emotion from people who did not actually feel it

It is unclear to me why Mr Byers feels that his colleagues ”are motivat­ed by hatred,” a statement with which I take great issue While I can only speak for myself, my motivation for being a city commissioner is not based upon hatred but rather a devout love of this City and its people I want to do all that I can to ensure our city con­tinues down a positive path Yet, I agree there are entities m th is city who are motivated by hatred, “Your Community Crier” being the most bla­tan t This paper’s affection for Com­missioner Byers and disdain for sever­al other candidates is the most unbal­anced representation of local politics I have ever witnessed Their weekly articles that spew venom and grossly inaccurate inform ation about Mr Byers' competition is the epitome of hatred While Mr Byers states, “I will not rally around hatred of any kind,” one must ask why he continues to rally around the Community Cner

Michele R. Potter Plymouth City Commissioner

■ Feel for the cityAs a resident of Plymouth Township

(formerly of the city), I have a passing interest in city politics and goings-on And, even as a casual observer, I am fed up with the ugliness I feel for the people of the city of Plymouth who have become pawns in this bizarre political scenario

I must not have been paying close enough attention a few years ago when some of this started But from reading the local papers, I've picked this much up doctor and newspaper publisher have a dispute, doctor wronged by city employee, doctor sues city, doctor buys paper from newspaper publisher to have a forum to vent spleen and perse­cute personal enem ies, new spaper becomes a malevolent force in Ply­mouth I m sure there's more to it, but this is all that comes through for those of us not on the inside

And now this ugliness is spilling into local politics I have no horse m this race but, as an objective outsider, I sure hope the people of the City make choices m the upcoming election that

will allow for positive movement Send a clear message about what the city is and what you waht it to be

After the election, I d love to pick up one of the reputable newspapers m town and read about cooperation, about positive developments, about true issues (rather than silly ones like trying to save a pile of bricks tha t embody some residents' memories of youth)

The city is filled with wonderful peo­ple who deserve responsible journal­ism, civility of discourse, and strong leaders

■ District needs Booher

I was very sorry to read the head­lines m the Observer I can under­stand how (Dr Booher) feels Many of us in this town are thoroughly disgust­ed with the constant negative activi­ties and commentary of a few people who don’t really have the best inter­ests of the school district m its entirety as their goal

If you are offered the position you are seeking m Livingston County, it will be a great career move for you However, if this isn’t forthcoming, and you can’t find something at a similar level, I sincerely hope that you will reconsider and stay with us

I’m aware of most of the problems you are facing here, but we desperate­ly need someone of your capabilities and class to guide the district through the many changes and troublesome situations we are confronting I understand how it can be extremely painful to have to be subjected to per­sonal attacks, but please be aware that you have many sympathetic support­ers who want nothing more than to see this district be successful in overcom­ing our difficulties and challenges In any event, best of luck

Fred Libbing Plymouth

■ Very disappointedIt was very disappointing for me to

learn last week that Dr Booher will soon be leaving the district During her 18 months here, the efforts of the school district staff to provide high- quality educational programs have never been more sharply focused She has provided a bold vision for the future of the District while earning widespread support and respect among District employees

What has been particularly disturb­ing to me and should be very disturb­ing to the community are the reasons behind h~r impending departure

As residents of Canton and Ply­mouth commumties, I urge you to pay close attention to what has happened The district is about to lose this strong leader because of the highly question­able moral and ethical behavior and possibly illegal actions of at least two community members

Over the next few weeks, you will begin to find out the details of how these individuals have worked behind the scenes to obstruct the superinten­dent's efforts to do her job If you pay close attention, you will see these indi­viduals have worked diligently outside boundaries this community would tol­erate as legitimate to advance their own agenda

If you follow school district business,

you will notice that these individuals have operated sometimes within legiti­mate means They attend and speak a t Board of Education meetings and write letters to editors of local newspa­pers

Instead of seeking an even wider forum for their dissent, like running for the school board and letting the voters of the community decide if they agree enough with their positions to elect them, they instead have taken a less courageous route

These tactics have included misus­ing the intent of the Freedom of Infor­mation Act to overwhelm the superin­tendent’s office with requests for infor­mation, meeting minutes, e-mails, and voice mail communication I have to wonder if these same people are responsible for the tactics outlined m the statement released by the superin­tendent on Oct 14

As residents, you should know these individuals formerly held elected lead­ership positions in the district During their tenure, there was widespread disrespect among district employees for their leadership From newspaper accounts, these same people are push­ing their agenda to return to these “good old days ” It appears that these people have moved beyond legitimate forms of dissent to vicious, behind the scenes actions designed to make their point They appear to have won the first round Dr Booher is leaving

As residents of our community, you have much to worry about from these people They have forced a strong leader out of the district The reasons for her resignation will find their way to other strong candidates for this position Some of them will not apply

Unless the new superintendent shares the vision of these individuals, what is to stop them from contmuing their work to prevent his or her effec­tiveness9 Be leery of these people They do not care about the quality of education your child is receivmg from our schools They care about advanc­ing their own agenda outside of legiti­mate means of dissent They appear to be willing to do almost anything to force it upon you and those of us who work for the district

Impact of Sept. 11 w ill be with us for a long tim e

Two experiences over the weekend convinced me the impact of the September 11 terrorist attacks will be profound, not immediately appar ent and certainly not confined to New York or Washington, D C

Over the weekend, I flew to New York and back to Detroit to visit a dear friend suffering from brain cancer The most noticeable change, com

pared to previous tnps, was the enormously increased number of security people at Detroit Metro politan and LaGuardia air­ports In New York, there seemed to be security guards everywhere I went

During the flight, I fell into conversation with a woman from Birmingham who

Phil Power

works on the 35thfloor of the Renaissance Center “I’m a little wor ned,” she said at one point “The Ren Cen is just too big and makes too big a target I’m seriously thinking of getting a different job in a smaller building ”

Both episodes got me to thinking about what’s going on just under the surface of all the daily news reports of bombing and Afghanistan and anthrax

A ton of security guards are being hired just now all over the country In airports In and around Washington In lobbies of tall buildings At drug companies and mailrooms and federal, state and local government installations of all kinds I have no idea how many people are being hired and/or assigned to security duties around the country, but it must number m the many many thousands

Of course hiring lots of security personnel makes great sense just now

The threat of terrorism is real and people are anxious and jumpy But what’s really taking place under the surface is a shift m the allocation of resources m the economy from increasing pro ductivity to increasing overall security Instead of hiring well trained technicians to improve com plex manufacturing processes, companies and the government are hiring security guards and buy ing sophisticated X-ray machines and metal detectors to be used at airports

So on the margin, the proportions of labor hours and capital expenditure devoted to security is increasing Hence the growth m overall produc­tivity - the output per hour of all persons in the labor force - is almost certain to decline This is serious because it has been the remarkable increase m productivity - averaging more than 2 percent for the past decade - that has been behind the non inflationary good times we have experienced over the past 10 years

Similarly both businesses and individuals are beginning to reassess the tendency toward con­centrating economic activity in enormous cities and gigantic buildings I have long suspected that the Internet, the cell phone, the laptop computer and the palm pilot together have been contribut­ing to a decentralizing tendency in our society More and more people seem to have been choos­ing to live and work m smaller communities or at home, and fewer and fewer people have seen either the desirability of necessity of working in

O f course , h ir in g io ts o f s e c u r i ty p er­s o n n e l m a k e s g r e a t s e n s e j u s t now .

The th r e a t o f te rro r ism is r e a l . .

big buildings in big citiesThe destruction of the World Trade Center

almost surely will accelerate this trend I doubt very much if we’ll ever see again 100-story plus buildings being built And like my seatmate who is thinking about working closer to home, I wouldn t be surprised to see people hesitating to go to work m the Sears Tower or the Empire State Building

Admittedly, I don t now have hard data to go with these twin notions But I do know econo mists already are wondering about how much growth in productivity will decelerate and I know folks m commercial real estate who are remark­ing on deteriorating demand for Class 1 office space in tall buildings m the middle of big cities

But I have a strong impression that both changes are taking place in our society only tern porarily obscured by the froth of daily news events And I think the consequences will be with us for a long long time

Billy Crystal, Robin Williams and Whoopi Gold­berg have made the term “Comic Relief’ a house­hold name

This year, they’re considering hosting it directly from the Plymouth City Commission Chambers If they’re looking for local guest hosts, possibili­ties abound If they’re looking for material, no problem there They have to look no further than the current race for four open spots on the Ply­mouth City Commission

This town has a reputation for its quirky poli­tics And the current slate of politicians is seeing to it that reputation is upheld It seemingly doesn’t matter who you support or why, you can’t escape the political slime m this election, try as you might

Take last week’s city commission meeting Everyone m town who has paid attention knows how the whole Central Middle School issue has developed Most people believe it was created by incumbent commissioner Dave Byers as a politi­cal tool, we aren’t sure Byers is that slick a politi­cian, and we attribute the success of this issue creation to the people backing Byers, who have done a superb job of creating fear where none should exist

Be that as it may, after the revelation m the Oct 14 Observer that Dr Kathleen Booher, super­intendent of Plymouth-Canton schools, will seek employment elsewhere because of the devious actions of others, several school teachers and resi­dents showed up at the Oct 15 city commission meeting to express their displeasure

Although you’d never know it by the story that ran m the tabloid that backs Byers, nearly every one of them was there to blast Byers for what they perceive was his part m Booher’s decision Most of them think Byers, by creating the issue, and the tabloid, by exploiting it, are to blame for her decision to leave

While it’s true the tabloid has been a little disingenuous with its “reporting” of what it calls “the facts” surrounding what they’ve labeled “Booher’s master plan,” it’s folly to think that played a large role m her decision to leave That tabloid simply doesn’t wield that kind of power or influence There were other, more devious, forces behind Booher s decision

But that doesn’t matter to the people trying to

win an election And that kind of political folderol isn’t limited to Byers and his backers Other peo­ple are playing political football, too, and they’re playing just as dirty

At the city commission meeting, no fewer than three commissioners - Sean FitzGerald, Dan Dwyer and Mayor Dave McDonald - used the “commissioner’s comments” portion of the agenda to launch political salvos against Byers FitzGer­ald, in fact, took two swipes at the guy, and applauded several times when someone in the audience would attack Byers We think FitzGer­ald has been an outstanding commissioner Show­ing his bias in that fashion was simply beneath him

It was the mayor’s behavior that was most sur­prising, although maybe it shouldn’t have been For instance, when Byers responded to the attacks with a little grandstanding of his own, stepping down from the dais to “speak as a citi­zen,” McDonald should have let him have his 15 seconds of fame Instead, the mayor chose to lash out, telling Byers he could “resign your position and then speak all you want Otherwise sit back down ”

When it was McDonald’s turn for commissioner comments, he spent several minutes lashmg out at Byers, and even recommended voters not vote for Byers This from a guy who, at the beginning of the primary campaign, said he would never allow politicking from the dais

I suppose it’s silly to expect anything else out of everyone as the election draws near A tabloid that would take someone’s Web site posting, alter it to suit its purposes and run it as a letter to the editor wouldn’t think twice about skewing the facts of an issue it’s allegedly rallying against

Perception becomes reality, and people on both sides of this election fence have nearly perfected the art of manufacturing perception There’s another saying that’s pretty popular Truth is stranger than fiction

Nowhere is the truth stranger than m Ply­mouth politics

in winning 'Sprawl* entryBe extra careful this Halloween

Livonia Fire and Rescue is offering Halloween safety tips for paren ts and guardians of tnck-or-treaters

■ P a ren ts should exam ine treats for evidence of tampering prior to children eating them

■ Purchase costumes, masks, beards and wigs labeled as “flame resistant ” Flimsy materi­als and outfits with big, baggy sleeves or billowing sk irts should be avoided to minimize the risk of contact with candles

■ Make or buy costumes, bags and sacks bright enough to be clearly visible to motorists at night For greater visibility, dec­orate costumes with reflective tape, and give children flash lights to carry

■ Costumes should be short enough to prevent children from tripping and falling Children should wear well-fitting, sturdy shoes

■ Hats and scarves should be tied securely to prevent them from slipping over children’s face and eyes

■ Use cosmetics instead of a loose-fitting mask which may restric t breathing or obscure vision If a mask is used, make sure it fits securely and has eye­holes large enough to allow full vision

■ Swords, knives and similar costume accessories should be of soft or flexible material to avoid injury

■ Children should always be accompanied by an older, responsible child or adult They should use sidewalks and walk, not run, between homes

■ Children should only go to homes where residents have out side lights on They should not en ter homes or apartm en ts unless they are accompanied by an adult

■ Those receiving tnck-or- treaters should remove anything that could be an obstacle from steps, lawns or porches Light jack o-lantems with flashlights instead of flames, which could ignite costumes

Vilma, Jewel and Icee roam around the ice pack seemingly dazzled by their new envi ronment in the Arctic Ring of Life at the Detroit Zoo On the grassy tundra Nikki rolls m

the dirt while Adak looks on Polar bears have made their home at the zoo

since it opened m 1928, but life s never been quite like this with fresh trout piped m daily thi ee swimming pools to choose from and plenty of nooks and crannies to explore in the 4 2 acre habi tat Only three hours before the five polar bears were laying around listless m the rocky exhibit across from the new $14 9 million area which sim ulates the Arctic region ringing the top of the globe

Currently, five polar bears call the Arctic Ring of Life home In the next couple of weeks zoo staff will slowly introduce Triton and Sissy to the rest of the bears

“It really takes time,” said Shawn Stinton asso ciate curator of education Some of them ha\ en t gotten along all that well m the pavt It o been very successful so far but there s a lot of prepara tory work The welfare of animals is our primary concern ”

Just like the rest of the project there s no hurry to rush the bears as they explore their new surround mgs and meet each other They pass with in feet of one another - too interested m checkmg out the pool to make a fuss about sharing their home

Zoo director Ron Kagan’s been waiting five years to see this day' That’s when he first dreamed about jsuildmg a new home

Ghostly tale tricks audience into funBY LINDA ANN CHOMIN S t a f f W r i t e rIchorain@oe homecomm.net

The first thing Patricia Willmgton needed to stage her upcoming pro duetion was a ghost Fortunately the Great Lakes Lync Opera artistic/rausie director didn t have to look far At 6 feet, 8 inches tall, Chris Grapentme fit the bill

The Cctnterville Ghost opens Friday Oct 26, for a two-day run at the Southfield Centre for the Arts Based on Oscar Wilde’s classic story the comic opera features a cast of actors

bent on having a good time “It s really fun and excitm gsaid

Willmgton who grew up in Livonia

and now lives in Southfield “It’s the kind of thing that will appeal to fami­lies There’s not much out there for families that isn t gory but you can’t do it without a good ghost ”

Of course it also helps to have com poser Paul Barker and librettist Bnd get Crowley on stage during the final rehearsals The two flew m from Lon don a week ago Friday and Chnsto pher Vaught couldn t be happier He plays Lord Canterviiie the owner of the English estate haunted by the ghost

ghost“Most opera music composers

are long dead, nobody knows how he wants it done but him Paul Barker can tell us how he w ants certa in tem pos,” said Vaught, a Southfield resident “Some of it is difficult musically, but I’m enjoying it Lord Canter- ville is d is inherited and h is ancestor from 300 years previous is haunting him He’s trying to sell the estate He’s broke, does­n’t have any love life because of this ghost problem ”

Despite all of his character’s problems, Vaught loves playing Lord Canterville Juggling his operatic singing schedule is another sto ry C urren tly m rehearsals for Anoush a t the Qetroit Opera House, Vaught doesn’t seem to mind any minor problems encountered along the vfey to opening night It’s a lot easier than commuting back and

rp

forth from Ohio to sing with the Michigan Opera Theatre like he did last spring

“There’s a lot of humor as well as slapstick that adults and chil­dren wauld find amusing,” said Vaught, who earned a master’s degree m vocal perform ance from Bowling Green University in Ohio “It’s a 20th century type of music w ith a big barbershop quartet m the middle of it We’re singing in operatic style but I would classify it a musical the­ater piece I t ’s set m the late 1800s and the Otis children, whose parents are interested in buying th e estate, play dirty tncks on the ghost ”

Hailey Willmgton is one of the children A student at Coving ton School in Birmingham, the 10-year-old d augh ter of the artistic director is having fun playing the role even though she claims it’s out of character

“We’re try ing to scare the ghost with a fake ghost made out of a pole, balloon and sheet,” said Hailey “I like it because I get to be a horrible little brat It’s fun to do for a while ”

Sheila Gautreaux is surprised Hailey has not only mastered her lines but the songs Gautreaux plays Mrs Umney, the housekeeper

“The challenge is the music,” said G autreaux, who’s per­formed with the New York City Opera, New Orleans Opera and Houston Grand Opera “It’s been a lot of fun There are no diva attitudes Everybody’s down to earth I t’s a cast of diversity I commend Patricia on hiring peo­ple according to voices not race But it’s a difficult opera for chil­dren There’s so much singing and lines to remember ”

together but they’re not Kagan expects a lot of bruised polar bears at first That is until the bears realize, there’s 4-inches of acrylic between them and the seals

It’s an eerie feeling being sur­rounded by 300,000 gallons of water as you Walk through the tunnel Looking up, visitors can see sky and trees through the water - and polar bears swim­ming all-around

Through the window m the research station visitors seem mesmerized by more bears out on the simulated ice pack It’s easy to spend hours watching them sniff the air as they amble around

“It’s difficult for us to believe we’re finally here,” said Carter at a media preview on Oct 18 “We were working here last night and it just finally sunk in It’s great There’s a lot of new things for the bears to explore ”

Carter expects the five female and two male bears, ages 4 to 26, to produce cubs in the future

Polar bear affair: B o nKagan’s dream of a new polar bear exhibit came true when the Arctic Ring of Life opened Oct 20Elsa Poulsen expects that will be as much fun to watch as their first steps m the Arctic Ring of Life on Oct 18 The polar bear keeper was up at 4 a m , too excited to sleep Poulsen’s spent her whole life studying bears

“This is typical bear behavior, it’s all about personality,” said Poulsen “Icee jumps in there She’s adventuresome while Vilma and Jewel stand at the door Vilma is braver She’s food orient­ed Jewel’s indecisive She’s say

mg, ‘no you go first ’”Poulsen, most definitely, knows

bear She cared for six different species at the Calgary Zoo in Alberta for 18 years Coming to the Detroit Zoo seven months ago was a dream for her She said, the rest of zoo community is already talking about the Arctic Ring of Life

“The exhibit offers important things for bear husbandry,” said Poulsen who began a career as a Wildlife biologist 25 years ago “They designed it on what does their natural environment consist of in the tundra north of Churchill and the Territories There’s no visual barriers Putting them m a pit or cage is historically what we did

“Polar bears are difficult to study for human beings because of the harsh environment Only in the last years have we been able to study them in the Arctic because of NASA’s advance­ments Everything they devel­oped, the materials and equip­ment, opened up research m the Arctic ”

Polar bear researchers encounter difficulties besides the harsh environment

“Males have cone shaped heads,” said Poulsen “They can’t wear collars They fall off so it’s difficult to get information Most of the information is based on females ”

One frightening fact researchers did reveal is that the big, white creatures are in dan­ger Global warming is melting polar ice Research has shown the bears weigh 20 percent less and have fewer cubs than 20 years ago

“They’re eventually going to become endangered,” said Poulsen “The goal is to try to raise physically and mentally healthy bears ”

Poulsen can tell if the bears are happy or sad by looking at the expressions on their faces

“We’re learning they have emo­tions and interaction with others just like human beings,” said Poulsen “They’re walking up and < down the pool thinking what’s going on

“Icee - she’s smiling She’s so excited She’s happy When a polar bear’s lower lip is hanging he or she is exceptionally happy If they have a pointing upper lip, they’re ticked off ”

And there’s nothing worse than a mad polar bear no matter how cute and cuddly they look

BYBOBWEIBEL Special writer

The Theatre Guild of Livoma- Redford has come up w ith a g rea t recipe for a fun-filled evening They’ve taken a good old-fashioned musical melodra­ma, No' No' A Million Times No' added sparkling performances, mixed in zesty staging and excel­lent costumes - and blended m

an unusual secret ingredient you won’t soon forget

M elodram a, of course, was interactive long before the tech- no-age, so come prepared to cheer and applaud the hero, sigh and swoon over the heroine, boo and hiss the villain and perhaps throw a li tt le popcorn - but please, no vegetables

You won’t th ink of tossing tom atoes when you see the show’s secret ingredient, a senes of television-style ads Think Ron Popeil of Ronco fame, and the phrase “but wait, there is more,” or Dan Ackroyd’s days on Saturday Night Live

Most were w ritten into the show by Craig Broombaugh, who deftly plays the hero, Noble Hart The best segment is Doctor Feelgood’s Healing and Recti­tude Powder m which he por­trays a Fundamentalist minister ridding the world of evil with a magic potion His timing, voice

inflections and character are, in a word, mesmerizing

And here’s the kicker - Craig is a senior a t Redford Union High School He can write and perform far beyond his years Remember his name You will be hearing more from him in the future

The play itself revolves around a fa rm er’s daughter, Nellie Quackenbush, who is pure as the driven snow, of course She goes to the big city and falls under the spell of one of those city slickers, the reprehensib le Stafford Blackm an Nellie returns to the farm only to find herself torn between the worldly villain and her simple-minded childhood sw eetheart, Noble Hart

Stephanie Piquet glows as the innocent heroine and her long, black rattling curls are a hoot

Don Lee scores as her simple­ton father, Amos ‘Pappy” Quack­

enbush J a n e t Stevenson is splendid as his long-waiting love interest, Birdie Seed, who sings the title song, No' No' A Million Times No'

Steve Morgan has all the looks and moves of a fantastic villain M ichaella Dionne not only directs this wonderful show, but finds time to give a marvelous performance as the villains jilted lover, Gwendolyn Finefeathers All done up m black mesh stock mgs, red boa and ample cleav age, she wows the audience with a torchy rendition of The Moth and the Flame

John Hicks is a kick as Iffy Cann, w hether th a t requires hillbilly extraordinaire or cutie pie milkmaid Rounding out this uniformly good cast are Annette R ipper as E m m ahne, Linda Godzick, Sara Belanges, Mane Lee, Diana Williams and Robert Papmeau C J Nodis, whose the­ater credits are longer than the

Zoup! ladles up some o f the best hot soup in tow nB v REN&3 Skoglund S t a f f W r it e r

rskoglund@oe.homecomm.net

We all remember those grilled cheese and tomato soup days of our childhood And you know sometimes, there’s nothing more comforting m life than a bowl of hot soup

Zoup’, which made its debut w the area ju s t three years ago, recently opened a N orthville restaurant, its fourth location

The place is busy Let’s say th e re ’s a lo t of ladle-dipping going on

“Lunch is busy, bu t dinners are going on strong,” said Enc E rsh e r, who owns the chain along w ith his partner, David Elias

“They have good soup and a good v a rie ty I t ’s fresh You always find one or two soups you like, if not more,” said customer Ken Gold of Farmington Hills, who polished off a bowl of Smooth Tomato

All soups come with a hunk of sourdough or multigrain bread and are served in 8-ounce to 32 ounce portions With the bread, 12 ounces of soup is plenty They also serve saladsChoices, choices, choices

If you visited a Zoup* location seven days a week, it would take you more th an half a year to sample all 200 varieties Idle com­pany cooks up m its Ferndale- based kitchen Each Zoup1 loca­tion serves 12 different soups each day, and the selections are constantly rotated We’re talking a soup lover’s heaven

“We make a lot of soup We’re getting good a t it,” said Ersher m a classic understatement

The top-selling Zoup! soup is Chicken Potpie, and the Observ er’s taste-testing entourage (a reporter, editor and photogra­pher) agreed The soup was thick, almost a stew, creamy and filled with vegetables The crum­bled pie-crust topping made it even more special We gave it a four-spoon rating It was comfort food a t its best I called it an “edible pillow ”

St a ff photo b y P a u l hubschmann

Who wants soup? The friendly staff is ready to serve at the new Zoup! location on Haggerty south o f Eight Mile Diane Pmtar, front left, and Shannon Welton hold samples o f the Zoup! and bread platters, while Wendy Schultz, back from left, Betty Gamble, Emory Curtis and Kevin Kolb stand by.

The El Grand6 Chili also received four spoons, as did the Smooth Tomato, which was clear and lightly spiced The Fire cracker Shrimp and the Clam

Chowder received three spoons and th e C ajun Chicken & Sausage Gumbo th ree and a half

Zoup’ also offers a daily selec­

tion of low-fat, vegetarian or dairy-free soupsGetting started

Ersher and Elias, formerly in the wholesale spice business, came up with the concept for Zoup' in 1997 “We went through a lot of back doors in restaurants and saw what kind of soups they served,” said Ersher “The con­sensus was that really good soup was hard to find ”

A group of family and fnends met every Saturday morning to sample the chefs weekly batch of 15 new soups Ersher wouldn’t say w hat recipes were tossed from the pot, but most recipes were keepers

“We keep them, tweak them or kill them,” he said

There are no industrial-size pots m Zoup’’s kitchen All soups are made m small batches then quick-chilled in an ice-water bath to preserve freshness and “marry the flavors ” It is gently double-boiled before serving

“Quality is what Zoup’ is all about,” said Ersher “We’re real­ly focused on being better than the other guy ”

Zoup’ offers take-home con­

tainers in any size, as well as specially priced Frozen Home- Zoup’ in single-serving, microwavable containers They also provide soup for large gath­erings, such as tailgate parties

What’s best, you can order and pay on-line by v is itin g www zoup com Or, you can have Zoup’ e-mail you with their daily menu and a link to their order form

One la s t th in g - d esse rt There’s Apple Brown Betty, Mud Pie, Rice Pudding, cobblers, brownies and cookies

N ailed by a lousy manicure

The nail technician shook her head in disbelief when I told her that, at

age 55, this was my first pedicure “How come you wait so long9” she

said m a thick Vietnamese accent “You don’t like nice toenails9”

I shrugged and settled my feet into the hot whirlpool bath Even though the woman m the next chair assured me that I would “simply love a pedi­cure,” I was leery For some people, feet are personal However, my hus­band and I were leaving the next morning to visit our son and daugh- ter-in-law in Maryland and I wanted some colorful toes poking out of my sandals

The technician carefully laid out the tools of her trade on a clean towel Toenail clippers large enough to behead M ane A ntoinette, cuticle trimmers th a t could easily prune a bush, and an assortment of intimidat­ing files, sanders, peelers and buffers My callouses were history

When she finished, my feet were soft and pink enough to ink up and stamp on a birth certificate I had just shed five decades of callouses

“Now come fun part Pick a color,” she said

Bottles of jewel-toned nail colors blinked at me 1 eliminated the blues, purples and greens Too funky But pink was too timid and orange too neon Yet I wanted something bold, something that would put my toes on notice

“I’ll take candy apple red,” I said “Hmmm, nice choice for first time

How ’bout I do your fingernails9” F ingernails9 A manicure for my

dishwashing, key board-punching, cat-grooming fingernails9 Wasn’t a pedicure bold enough9 Last time I pol­ished my fingernails (my son’s wed ding four years ago), it sucked out all the moisture and my nails chipped and split for six months

“Sure,” I said in a moment of mad­ness “Go ahead ”

Toes drying, I hobbled over to the manicure table Within minutes my fingers sported a pound of base coat, two coats of red and a sealer Wow I fanned them in front of me, 10 bright red flags th a t matched my lollipop toes and said, “You go, girl'” I forked over $43 and left

I noticed the first chip at 10 o’clock tha t night while reading m bed By morning, most of my flags were at half mast When I showered the pol­ish on my right pinkly completely lift­ed off and spiraled towards the drain like the last rose petal of summer I dned off and headed to the nail salon

“Look, look a t my nails The polish is not even 24 hours old and it’s com­ing off ” To demonstrate, I peeled the polish on my thumb in one swoop It came off like a sheet of 1950s kitchen linoleum The m anager rem ained nonplused

“That’s normal,” he said “You need to have nail ndges sanded before pol­ish put on ”

“They were sanded1”“So sorry You come back I do it for

free ”“I’m leaving on vacation m two

hours1”“You come back ” The rest of what

he said was in Vietnamese I drove home and removed the pol­

ish Oh well, at least my toenails remained red

That night in our hotel room, my husband stormed out of the bathroom holding his Bermuda shorts m front of me “You ruined my shorts,” he said accusingly “There’s polish all over the back of them ”

I waived my naked nails in front of him as evidence of my innocence

“Somehow your polish got on my shorts,” he snorted

We finally figured it out On the way to the nail salon my polish had self-destructed all over the driver’s seat Several of the flecks had stuck to his behind on the long drive to Maryland, and well m the heat they simply melted into his shorts

Quit whining and buy some new ones, I told him After all, what was one pair of shorts compared to the loss of 10 shiny red nails9

“I hope your toenail polish peels off by morning,” he said

I t didn’t Otherwise, I would have gathered up the flecks and deposited them on the driver’s seat

Charities prepare for slow season

Giving: Karen Guerreso and Major John Klammer o f the Salva­tion Army hope people are generous this holiday season

b y M ary R odrique/K im berly M ortsonSTAFF WRITERS

Am ericans are opening th e ir hearts and wallets in a big way to help victims of the Sept 11 ter­

rorist attacks, but local chanties are hoping donors will remember the ir needs, too, as the holiday season approaches

Karen Guerreso, office manager for the local Salvation Army, says being overlooked is her agency’s biggest fear as the holidays draw near

“It might be a little too early to tell,” she said “With layoffs, quite a few peo­ple are asking for help The need is the re We’re not sure how we’ll be affected ”

The branch serves the cities of Livo­nia, the north end of Bedford Town­ship, Farmington, Farmington Hills and Novi

“I want to say we appreciate all the donations made to New York through the Salvation Army, but don’t forget our own community,” Guerreso added “We’ll need help here, too There are a lot of new cases this year Many people live paycheck to check Getting laid off puts them over the edge ”

Bell ringers neededMajor Steve Hull of the Salvation

Army m Plymouth says the big need this season will be bell rings “We won’t know for three-four weeks some hard numbers as to where we’ll stand this season, but we are seeing an increase in the number of requests for help this year,” said Hull “We live and-die by the Christmas season and we’re a little concerned already ”

Bell ringers should be at least high school age - younger with adult super­vision At least a two-hour time com­mitment is necessary They ring Mon­day through Saturday, 10 a m to 9 p m The Plymouth Salvation Army serves the communities of Northville, Plymouth, Canton and Belleville

Hull said the Salvation Army is hop­ing area businesses will serve as spon­sor sites for their Red Kettle drive that begins the day after Thanksgiving (Nov 23)

“If a business adopts a site and lets their employees work in one-hour time blocks each, that helps us fill the day­

time hours when we need volunteers the most It’s not hard to find people to work during the evening and on the

weekends ”The Goodfellows won’t let a child go

without a Christmas regardless of the

added adversity the sluggish economy may create

“The Goodfellows operate on dona­tions from the year before — next year we’ll probably be in trouble,” said Dan Rapp, Goodfellows president of Livo­nia “We’ve already received about 80 applications for people needing help this season Last year we served 150 families and 397 children ”

Rapp sa id donations being e a r ­marked for New York are understand­able but he hopes people don’t pass over the local organizations who serve people right m their own back yard

On the flip side, the Goodfellows president said he has seen a significant increase m the number of individuals wanting to volunteer to sell Goodfel­lows newspapers, deliver food baskets and shop for toys “We had our first kick-off meeting last week and usually have six or eight people attend Fifty people came to the meeting I t was unbelievable,” said Rapp

Back again this year will be the Urn- cycle Club of Redford, which not only rings bells in front of the Farmer Jack at Nine Mile and Farmington Road, they put on quite a show, according to Guerreso They’re scheduled Saturday, Dec 1 A local Mensa group has been ringing for years They’ll put ringers at all 17 locations from 6-8 p m on Nov 24

William Tyndale College students will ring Saturday, Dec 8 a t 12 Oaks Mall m Novi There are still plenty of time slots available from the Saturday after Thanksgiving through Christmas Eve

“If we don’t get enough volunteers, we have to hire bell ringers a t $8 an hour,” said Guerreso “Often we’ll hire our clients, who need the money ”

The Salvation Army also sponsors an Adopt-a-Family program , w hereby donors are matched anonymously with area families m need to supply items from wish lists The Salvation Army acts as the go between

Enrollment up at area collegesBy M argo DeweySpecial Writer

Registration lines are increasing High-tech course lists continue to expand The thirst to enhance one’s education has never been more popular than it this now, and commu­nity colleges throughout the state are especially witnessing this bulging enrollment

Students from 18 to 80 are signing up at community col­leges hoping to grasp their dream career while spending fewer hours in a classroom than a four-year college would demand

“We have seen a big upturn m enrollment this year,” said Richard Lightbody, director of career planning and place­ment for Wayne County Community College (WCCC) “The last few registrations we have had around 10,000 students enroll This year, we just finished registering 15,000 stu­dents With the economy tightening and people being laid off, attending a commumty college is a more frugal choice ”

Convenience also plays a big role when selecting a commu­nity college over a four-year institute, Lightbody said

“WCCC is now offering on-line Internet courses where stu­dents don’t even have to come in to the campus They can

earn th e ir degree a t home a t th e ir conve­nience We also have other innovative training methods hke home video education w here s tu ­d en ts can take tapes home to educate them ­selves on a p a rticu la r subject ”

Some of the popular courses for the 2001- 2002 school year a t WCCC include technolo­gy (computers), electri­cal, plumbing, autobody service, computer repair­ing, robotics, telecommu­nications, nursing, truck driving, and pharmaceu­tical

“We are keeping on top of what skills are needed now in the corporate world so we can pass that information on to the students,” Lightbody said “Employers are telling us th a t they^need students trained m specific skills, so we relay that to the students who will then be prepared for that job once they graduate ”

Smaller classesJohn Titus, director of student advisement services for

Schoolcraft College m Livonia, has also seen an increase in enrollment this year He believes the smaller class size and the lower cost to attend a community college are definite benefits over a four-year college or university

“We’re finding that a lot of students attend a community college to get their two-year degree out of the way, which allows them to better focus on programs that will enhance their chance for a career,” Titus said “Culinary courses as well as high-tech computer system programming remain popular at Schoolcraft We also feature computer programs that work directly with Microsoft ”

Schoolcraft draws not only high school graduates but also

housewives, senior citizens and corporate managers who have been laid off and need to enhance their skills

“We host four-year schools on the campus to meet with students to keep them updated on the latest information and skills needed for a particular job,” Titus said “Attend­ing any kind of educational institute can help a person suc­ceed with their goals, and, sometimes, it can change their lives We have a unique program here at Schoolcraft College called From Chocolate Chips to Micro Chips at the Women’s Resource Center, which gives women of all backgrounds assistance to get back into the working environment ”

Benefits manyNancy Swanborg is the director of the Schoolcraft College

Women’s Resource C enter’s Chocolate Chips program Besides bemg a life-changing course, the course allows stu­dents to earn five college credits

“Students who attend this course may be a homemaker, someone who is divorced and needs to return to the work­force, someone who is widowed or even someone who is mar­ried and has a disabled spouse and needs to gam some skills to get a job,” said Swanborg “This is an excellent program You get so much support from other students attending the program as well as from the instructors ”

The Chocolate Chips to Micro Chips 16-week course offers hands-on computer training, guided career exploration, assertiveness training and keyboarding

“We also provide physical conditioning because we believe that the physical growth component aids m reinforcing the mind and the spirit,” Swanborg said “We also teach the stu­dents how to budget and set goals ”

Other key aspects provided by the Chocolate Chips pro­gram include free business clothing at the Chocolate Chips clothmg boutique, educational counseling and assistance m applying for school-related financial aid, resume writing,

The Chocolate Chips to Micro Chips program can change a per­son’s life in a m a tte r of 16 weeks, Swanborg said I t cer­tainly changed the life of Livonia resident Mary Bloedel

Bloedel had been away from the workforce for 13 years She had secretarial experience, but she needed to update and enhance her sk ills She also needed to find a educational sup­port program such as Chocolate Chips tha t would help her gam strength as a result of a family tragedy

Two of her children, Rachel, 8 years old, and Sarah, 11 months old, died from an unknown ail­ment

Common bond“It took the encouragement of

my husband Roger, and my s trong fa ith to help me get

through this,” she said “I knew I wanted to go back to work, but I wasn’t sure what I was going to do”

Bloedel saw a story about the national award-wmmng “Chips” program on television in the spring of 1999 She was so moved by the program that she decided to sign up

“At first I was very uneasy But, after you s ta rt talking to everyone in the group, you begin to realize that there are other people who are facing sim ilar situations as you or even those that are facing even more diffi­cult obstacles I think I liked the aspect that the program makes you deal with your past, present and future ”

W hen the Livonia residen t started in the program, she just wanted to learn the skills neces­sary to obtain a job, she said

“By the end of the program, I decided I wanted more I decided

Bloedel is now working as a clerk in the Continuing Educa­tion Motorcycle Safety program at Schoolcraft College She rec­ommends the “Chips” program to anyone wanting to change his life for the better

“As scary as it is to make that first step, make it because you will realize you are not alone The bond you will share with the women in your class w ill be incredible It will last a lifetime ”

Cleary’s program offered the solution • “I was taking three or four classes at a time, but we were only meeting once a week,” she said “Everything else was done on the Internet That made it so much easier ”

The Observer & Eccentric/ THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2 5 , 2 0 0 1 *C5

Pray to see the true nature in people despite bad acts &<* 1

There are bad acts, but never a bad person This ftiay seem impossible to believe based on the events m the world and more specifically m our country It sure seems like a bad group of people are a ttack ing a good group It certainly appears that there are very clear evil villains and very clear innocent victims But that is not how God sees us all it is not even close

During my education classes in college, the current phrase in disciplining students was consis­tently that there are bad choices made by children, bad actions they may take, but never a bad

child This philosophy was most­ly about not harming a child’s self-esteem, but I have taken it to heart both as a teacher and as a parent

True natureI t is v ita l th a t I realize the

true nhture of each of God’s chil dren, which we all are And God never made anything bad, the first chapter of Genesis says that everything he made is good

It is easier to see this goodness in a young child than in a tyrant who celebrates the death of inno­cent citizens, however, looking to the teachings of the Bible and

Christ Jesus the demand to love everyone is clear He said that if we can’t love the people in the world that we see, how can we possibly love the God whom we have not seen

In the book of Luke he says, “Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, bless them th a t curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you ” Not just put up with them and try not to hate them, pray for them

In the book of Romans, Paul, a Christian leader who personally knew about persecution and unjust governments, said, “If it

be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men Dearly beloved, avenge not your­selves, but rather give place unto wrath ”

Easier said than done? Possi­bly But, again, it is not about forgiving a “bad person ” I t is about trying to see beneath the outward appearance of anyone to find the child of God the good and perfect man that he created Following the Bible directives to love our enem ies is about acknowledging that we are all equal in the sight of God We are all worthy of God’s love as his children

When we are praying for our country and for our world, it should not be a prayer alone of God overcoming evil people Hat­ing or seeing anyone as evil is not productive toward helping the world heal What we really need to do is to pray to under­stand that God is present to gov­ern all of his creation, which includes every person in every corner of the world We can pray to see the true nature of his cre­ation — the integrity, honesty, peacefulness, and love — and can know that everyone has the right to express these qualities We can pray th a t each of us

(American, Arab, and Israeli) are free to express the goodness of our true nature i 1

God never made an evil man * i this m ust be our prayer This *T prayer will lift the hatred that breeds terrorism and thus con­tribute to bringing peace to the world

ANGER MANAGEMENT SEMINARLearning to cope with anger is

a necessary part of growing up Like adults, kids become angry for m any reasons Some are angry because their biological parents have separated, they have a new sibling m th e ir home, or they have just changed schools and feel outside of their comfort zone Recent terrorist events have unleashed feelings of confusion and anger m many otherwise happy children

Children who struggle with anger demonstrate their feelings

through verbal outbursts, physi even isolation Parents are oftencal aggression and fighting, or ___________________________

Goodness In Time World...Sometimes when we are reading the newspaper or watching the news on television we may think that everything happening in the world today is bad Perhaps all the good things that are happenmg around us are just not that exciting and therefore not very newsworthy Perhaps if a daily newspaper had a headline that read “Mr Jones Takes Children To Ball Game” it wouldn’t sell many papers In the Bible Jesus gives uS an example of “goodness by telhng the story of the good Samaritan who helps a man who was robbed and beaten We may not encounter anything this drastic m our daily lives but there is still goodness m the world today Good things occur every day and may involve many different situations a store clerk who is extra helpful a driver m another car that was courteous to us or the coworker who brought in cookies to share Goodness is one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit and it is joined with love joy peace patience kindness and faithfulness Spreading God s love and goodness is contagious and the good things we do on a daily basis are blessed by our Heavenly Father

For this very reason do your best to add goodness to your faith; to your goodness and knowledge.Good News Bible - 2 Peter 1:5

CANTON TOWNSHIPCHANGES ARE MADE IN DETERMINATIONS OF THE TOW NSHIP OF CANTON, WAYNE COUNTY, MICHIGAN, BASE (1% ANNUAL CHANGE) FLOOD ELEVATIONS (B F E s) U N D ER THE NATIONAL FLOOD INSURANCE PROGRAM (NFIP)

On September 2, 1981 the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) identified Special Flood Hazard Areas m the Township of Canton, Michigan, through issuance of a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM)

The Federal Insurance Admimstration/Mitigation Administrator has determined that modification of the elevations of the flood having a one percent chance of occurrence in any given year (base flood) for certain locations in the Township of Canton is appropriate The modified BFEs amend the FEMA FIRM for the community

This modification to the effective FIRM reflects the placement of fill and channelization along Willow Creek As a result of the modifications there are decreases in the VFEs narrowing and widening of the 1% annual chance (100 year) floodplain and narrowing of the regulatory floodway The revised BFEs for Willow Creek are as follows

Base Flood Elevations (NGVD)*TiOCflt’on Effective Revised

Approximately 100 feet downtstream of of Haggerty Road Approximately 750 feet upstream

*673 *674

of Lilley Road *678 *677*Elevation in feet National Geodetic Vertical Datum

The changes are made pursuant to Section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (PL 93-234), and are in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended (Tile XIII of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, PL 90 448)42 U SC 4001 4128, and 44 CFR Part 65

Under the above mentioned Acts of 1968 and 1973, the Federal Insurance Admimstration/Mitigation Administrator, must develop criteria for floodplain management In order for the community to participate in the NFIP, the community will be using the new BFEs to administer the floodplain management measures of the NFIP These modified BFEs will also be used to calculate the appropriate flood insurance premium rates for new buildings and their contents

Upon the second publication of notice of these changes in this paper any person has 90 days in which he can request through the Chief Executive Officer of the community that the Federal Insurance Administration/ Mitigation Administrator reconsider the determination Any request for reconsideration must be based on knowledge of changed conditions or new scientific or technical date All interested parties are on notice that until the 90 day period elapses the Federal Insurance Admimstration/Mitigation Administrator s determination to modify the BFEs may itself be changed

Any person having knowledge or wishing to comment on these changes should immediately notify

Canton stretch run proves too much for Salemb y c.J. R i s a kSPORTS EDITOR ejrisak@oe.homecomm.net

It was a tough situation going in for Plymouth Salem, having to face the third-ranked team in the state m the opening round of state district soccer tournament Knowing tha t team was your biggest rival — Plymouth Canton — intensified it

But a plan was m place And when Salem’s Kevin Savitskie outdueled Canton keeper Greg Musser to head the ball into the net with 13 57 left in the first half, giving the Rocks a 1-0 lead, Salem coach Ed McCarthy could implement the rest of his strategy

% e talked about how we would han die a situation like that last night and dunng the (pre game lightning) delay,” M cCarthy said “The way we were defending m the first half wouldn’t have worked m the second half ”

Canton had too many weapons was his reasoning So after getting a lead, Salem w ent into a defensive mode, switching Savitskie from offense to defense It worked — for a while

But a team like Canton’s can’t be cor railed forever

W ith v irtu a lly everyone on the attack, the Chiefs got the game tying goal from Evan Baker with 1111 left to play, then got the game winner from Aaron Schultz with just 1 59 remaining to edge Salem 2-1 Monday a t CEP

Canton advanced to W ednesday’s district semifinal opposite Ann Arbor Huron Salem bows out at 11-8-2

“I t’s overwhelming,” said Schmidt moments after scoring the game-win­ning goal “I was just there and tapped it in It was exciting ”

I t was the kind of excitement Canton

coach Don Smith would rather avoid “We finally got a couple m ,” Smith said “They were trying to slow it down slow it down

“But it was a good ball game, just hard on the heart ”

Schmidt’s game-winner was really the result of a play started by his team mate, Zak Juntila, who gamed posses sion of the ball m the corner to the right of Salem keeper Tavio Palazzolo With a good move, Jun tila beat the Rock defender carrying the ball along the end line toward the goal and then centering it to a charging Schmidt for the finish

‘ They had a lot of momentum,® said McCarthy “I thought we had a lot early , bu t th e ir large num ber of seniors, and their senior leadership, made a big difference ”

What that leadership did was allow Canton to keep attacking a defense first Salem scheme without panic or frustration “We kept pressuring, pres sunng, ’ said Smith ‘But you had to fight to get the ball in there (m front of Salem s goal) it was so crowded ”

Although Schmidt got the game win ner the key goal for the Chiefs was provided by Baker nearly 10 minutes earlier It was set up by the player McCarthy feared most, senior midfield er Johnny Kaczmarek “The way he was attacking, we had to drop Savit­skie back,” McCarthy said

Ironically, it wasn’t his deft ball-han dlmg tha t resulted m Canton’s first goal, rather, Kaczmarek took a free kick from 22 yards out after drawing a foul, to the left of the Salem keeper The ball ended up m the crowd of red and white jerseys in front of Palazzolo

Remember the ‘Blues Brothers’9 Well at Plymouth Salem they’ve

got the ‘Blues Sisters’ — and they’re on a mission from Fred

That’s Fred as in Coach Thomann, whose Rocks have an agenda that includes wrapping up a rare unde feated regular season between now and the Nov 7 finals of the Western Lakes Activities Association

Salem dispatched host Farming ton Harrison, 47-38, Tuesday night to clinch the WLAA title as well as the top seed m the conference tour nament which begins next Tuesday

The Rocks improved to 16 0 over a ll and 9 0 in the WLAA The Hawks are 8-8 overall but had won seven of their eight WLAA encoun te rs before losing to Thom ann’s team

Some coaches are superstitious talking about zeroes Thomann has a superstition about losing

“I’ve always had a philosophy that

you can’t worry about game 20 or 25/ he said ‘All this does is lets you get ready to play your next game

“Weve got game No 17 coming up at Farmington and we know they re going to pack it m and play a 2 3 zone

“But we did lock up the No 1 seed for the conference tournam ent We’re two games up with one to play ’

Farmington Harrison has some thing to play for despite the loss

The Hawks visit Livonia Churchill tonight and a victory would guaran tee Harrison a t least a tie for the Western Division title Coach Pete Mantyla s team is 3-1 m the divi­sion the same as Walled Lake West em and Northville which play each other

“I m proud of our team, Mantyla

Please see BASKETBALL, D4

Slicing through: Salem’s MaryLou Liebau (32) scored 10 points in the Rocks’ victory at Harrison.

Despite a solid performance Canton can’t make cut, but McKendry doesBY C .J . RISAKSports editorcjrisak@oe homecomm net

W ithout a doubt, Plymouth C anton’s perform ance a t the Division I state golf tournament was exceptional Too bad tha t several other teams had perfor­mances th a t can only be described as phenomenal

Competing at Forest Akers East on Friday, the Chiefs post­ed a team score of 311 — an average of 77 8 strokes per man And they still came away four strokes short of qualifying for Saturday’s final round

One reason for the low scores was the course had been altered due to poor conditions caused by excessive rain The par-five third hole was converted to a par- th ree , which m eant par went from 72 to 70

Still, the other team ’s scores

were, as Canton coach Tom Alles described them, “unbelievable ” T hat was particu larly true of first-round leader and eventual s ta te champ E as t Kentwood, which carded a team score of 287 on Friday — an average of 71 8 s trokes per golfer Most formidable in tha t was score of Matt Harmon, who shot a 64

Canton’s Ryan McKendry did get the opportunity to play Sat­urday His team-best 72 earned him a spot in Saturday’s round as an individual He shot an 81 for a two-day total of 153

“All the scores were higher on Saturday,” said Alles “The wind blew and that made the course more difficult And they also changed the pin placements, and they made tha t par-three third

hole 170 yards instead of 160“B ut overall, I was very

pleased with the way we played My thinking going m was a 310 could get us m on Saturday, and we were very close to what we thought it would take ”

I t ended up taking a 307 to qualify for Saturday “We only missed the cut by four strokes — th a t’s one stroke per player,” Alles noted

The Chiefs’ other scores Friday were a 78 by Andrew Wagner, an 80 by Jason Brand, and 81s by Scott Oliver and Michael Baracy

Finishing behind Kentwood, which posted a two-day total of 577, was Bay City Western at 588, with Traverse City Central and Ann Arbor Huron tied for third at 602 Harmon followed Friday’s round of 64 with a 71 on Saturday to earn overall medal­ist honors with a two day total of 135

■ Harrison’s seniors realize that not everyone is going to get a Division I ride next season, but they still want to play together So they compromise and announce that they’re going to package themselves to one col­lege - Northern Michigan - so they can still wear green and gold

■ Farm ington sports editor Dan O’Meara say “It’s only foot­ball” and opt to cover a district soccer f in a l on F riday n igh t instead of Hamson football

As far as the picks go - three of us were a perfect 15-0 last week None of the three of us were named Plymouth-Canton’s C J Risak, who tumbled to a 14 1 week - his best performance since getting dnlled m the head w ith a soccer ball a t a media game last year

D4(CP) The Observer & Eccentric/ THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2 5 , 2 0 0 1

Basketball from page D1 CC will try to stop Cody offensesaid “We went down to the last week of the season playing with a chance to win our league and division championships

“Salem is 16-0 for a reason They’re very good (Kelly) Jaskot passes the ball really well And they have a post player (Mary- Lou Liebau) who can hit threes and handle the ball ”

A year ago Salem did not win the WLAA title In fact, it was the fourth seed, although the Rocks did go on to win the con­ference tournament

But even that victory was tem­pered by the fact Salem was dribbled right out of the state high school tournament in the districts

“That’s our next set of objec­tives,” Thomann said “We’re a senior team We s ta r t four seniors and those guys have been through the wars ”

Tuesday’s game sta rted out like it was going to be a game

Harrison jumped out to a 7-2 lead with 5 30 left m the quar­ter But Amy Szawara hit a pair of shots, Liebau made a free throw and Szaw ara drilled a three as Salem closed the period with eight unanswered points for a 10-7 lead.

The Rocks opened the second quarter with the first four points and eight of the first nine for an 18-8 lead The Hawks were held to just three points in the period

“Our defense is outstanding,” Thomann said “We were good in the second quarte r and then again from the middle of the th ird to the middle of the fourth”

“In the f irs t h a lf we w ere struggling to feed the ball m to the post,” M antyla said H is team trailed, 24-10, at the half

A little chat from coach a t halftime plus some effective full- court pressure helped the Hawks score the first 10 points of the second half

“We got th a t sp u rt when Stephanie Zak hit those outside shots,” Mantyla said “They paid so much a tten tion to Ayana (Richmond) that it left somebody open outside ”

Jaskot, who scored 11 points, got a layup when Salem broke the press and then h it two free throws as the Rocks scored eight of the last nine points in the quarter to regam control, 32 21

I t w asn’t coincidence the Hawks hit their hot streak when Liebau, who had 14 points, left the floor with her fourth foul at 7 22 of the quarter She came back two m inutes la te r and played the rem ainder of the game

Szawara scored nine points for Salem while Richmond led Har­rison with 19 and Zak had 10

“They’ve got three players who can handle the ball, shoot from the perimeter and take it to the basket,” Mantyla said “When you’ve got th ree p layers like that ”

Thom ann has schooled h is players well m passing the ball Much of the first quarter they’ll fling it around just to see what’s

working and what isn’t “We’ve got a trem endous

amount of skill,” Thomann said, “and it’s carried us all season We’re not the biggest team but you don’t hold your breath when the ball hits somebody’s hands ”

Canton 4 9 , Farm ington 3 8 : Abig f irs t h a lf was more than enough to carry host Plymouth Canton past Farmington Tues­day

The win boosted the Chiefs’ record to 10-6 overall, 6-4 in the WLAA Farmington fell to 8-7 overall, 4-6 in the conference

In th is foul-filled contest — there were 46 calls made and 61 free throws attempted — Canton broke on top with a 13-9 first quarter The Chiefs increased their lead to 32-21 by halftime

The Falcons made a run early in the fourth quarter but could not catch Canton

K risten Lake led the Chiefs w ith 17 points and nine rebounds Katie Cezat added 11 points

Julie KimmeTs 16 points paced Farmington Randin Brown had 13

“I’m pleased with where we’re at right now,” said Canton coach Bob Blohm, “ with the progress we’ve made ”

Neither team looked too pol­ished a t the free-throw stripe Canton converted ju s t 13-of-30 (43 3 percent), Farmington was­n’t much better at 15-of-31 (48 4 percent)

Roeper 5 7 , PCA 3 2 : Turnovers were in abundance for Plymouth C hristian Academy Tuesday, and it cost the Eagles any hope of victory over visiting Michigan Independent Athletic Conference rival Bloomfield Hills Roeper

PCA committed 24 first-half turnovers and finished with 40 for the game The Eagles trailed 36-16 at the half and 48-25 after three quarters

Laura Guilfoyle led PCA with eight points Amanda Saagman, Shannon M urray and Amy Brandt each scored five

Sondra Moms was best for the Roughnders, netting 18 points Sarah Pemick added 16

Salem 44, Southgate 35: Ply­mouth Salem wasn’t at its best Saturday when it hosted South- gate Anderson m a game that was forced to be rescheduled due to the disaster in New York

But defense earned the Rocks, particularly m the second half when they pulled away from a 17-15 score a t halftim e by outsconng Anderson 27-20

“We played fairly competitive­ly, but not our best,” said Salem coach Fred Thomann “But we worked through it ”

Amy Szawara led the Rocks with 16 points Kelly Jaskot and MaryLou Liebau each contribut­ed 10, with Jaskot dishing out five assists and Liebau grabbing seven rebounds

Casey M anning’s 16 points paced Anderson

Three weeks ago, making the playoffs did­n’t look like it would be m the cards for Red- ford Catholic Central or Detroit Cody

The Shamrocks had just lost to University of Detroit-Jesuit to fall to 3-3 overall And Cody displayed more ups and downs than a roller coaster and fell short m making the Detroit Public School League playoffs

B ut both team s had enough down the stretch to make the Division 1 playoffs — and the two very different teams will face off for the firs t time a t Redford Union’s Hilbert Junior High at 1 p m Saturday

“We have been a Jekyll-and-Hyde team this season,” said Cody coach Vernon Brown “We gave (PSL champion) Henry Ford their only loss and that was a pretty big win for us and our program But then we’d do some­thing like lose to Mackenzie, which cost us our division, or play Mumford and lose m overtime ” *

CC coach Tom Mach wasn’t sure his team would host or even play PSL schools in the first two rounds But he did know his team would make the playoffs

“We scouted schools like Canton, John

E PLA YO FF PR EV IEW

Glenn and Henry Ford, so we kind of missed that,” said Mach “We really thought, at 6-3, that we were gomg to be on some other field on Fnday night But when we were 3-3, we knew we had to win out to make the playoffs It’s a matter of coming to play your best-pre­pared game all year It’s the kind of attitude you have to take Every game is either your last game, or it takes you to the next level ”

The two teams have differing styles Tradi­tionally, CC is a run-onented team that pass­es occasionally The Comets run a 50-50 pass-run mix and isn’t afraid to throw more

“We like to spread it out, maybe go four­wide,” said Brown “But we can also go off- tackle or occasionally try to power it ”

Mach knows what to expect “They aren’t afraid to throw it,” said mach

“They have good a th le te s and can score quick If we don’t contain them, we could find ourselves m trouble trying to play catch-up We have to work on pu tting pressure on (quarterback Qumcy Burts) and keep their receivers from making the big play ”

CC’s offensive philosophy is simple Get the lead early and grind it out

“We can’t let them do that,” said Brown “We want to rely on quickness They make be stronger, but I thm k we’ll be quicker We want to make them make tackles one-on-one It will be a big mistake to go power-on-power We’re gomg to try and out-quick them ”

Cody might be able to do it w ith Burts splitting time between quarterback and wide receiver and tailback Dominique Darnell, who rushed for 127 yards in the Comets win over Detroit Douglass

“What we want to do is win the field posi­tion battle,” said Brown “If we can control the ball and play good defense, this is a wmnable game for us ”

But CC hasn’t made the playoffs for the seventh-straight year w ith le tting other teams control the tempo At least not with the backfield of D errick Brooks, Mike Banaszak and quarterback Tom Jakacki

Injuries might play a part Cody lineman Derrick Markray (6-5, 325) is questionable with a bad knee, while CC lmebacker Brad Jarzembowski might see action after suffer­ing a bad hamstring pull

“We’re not going to look past them,” said Mach “We expect to play up a level — play better this week than last week — and hope that will be enough ”

Canton vs. Novi from page D1Conference, its losses coming against Brighton, Howell and Pinckney — all of them playoff teams

“Everybody can m ake th a t argument, that their losses were to p layoff team s,” said Novi coach Tab Kellepourey “We’re just happy to be m the playoffs We’re excited to be there ”

Even though the offense is sim ilar to that used by Salem, the Wildcats have one thing the Rocks didn’t a quarterback like M att Gorman Gorman is the leader of the Novi offense, he was the team’s leading ground- g am er, w ith more th a n 800 yards rushing

He isn ’t the ir only weapon, how ever Fullback Jak e Ray gained more than 200 yards in Novi’s 42-12 win over playoff- bound Northville last Fnday

What Novi doesn’t like to do, according to K ellepourey, is throw the ball “We threw two passes la s t week, and one of those was intercepted,” he said “We, too, believe in ball control

“That’s what I told their coach

th a t th is could be an early evening for both of us ”

The question is, which team can do what they want to do — which is dictate the tempo by swallowing up huge amounts of yardage on tim e-consum ing dnves

Baechler is concerned w ith Novi’s overall team speed “Obvi­ously, we would like to march down the field, but their defense may be too good for th a t,” the Canton coach said “Offensively, we w ant to possess the ball That’s what we want to do, con­trol the tempo of the game But that’s what they like to do, too ”

Then he added, “The only way to beat speed it to run right at i t ”

Certainly the Chiefs have the weapons to do just that, starting with leading rusher Dane Kobus The 6-foot, 215-pound senior fullback/linebacker has rushedfor nearly 1,000 yards, according to Baechler He’s also one of the fastest players on the team, run­ning the 40 yard dash m 4 6

“T hat fullback tra p ” said

Kellepourey “We know they’re going to bust that through there, we just want to make sure they don’t bust it for a long one ”

W hat Canton has th a t Novi lacks is depth, particularly in the backfield Baechler can call on Reggie Joyner, a slasher who h as more th a n 700 rush ing yards, Chad F u ller, who has rushed for over 400 yards, or Brandon Wilcox All have proven more than capable

So has quarterback Brendan M urphy In last Friday’s 49-7 win over Salem, Murphy went 6- for-6 passing for 157 yards and two touchdowns

But passing is not something either team wants to do, at least not in quantity

Baechler knows what to expect from the Wildcats, and he has an idea what he would like to see happen As w ith any option a ttack , the quarterback faces several alternatives Give the ball to the fullback up the mid­dle, carry it off tackle or around the end or pitch it to a trailing

backConsidering the success Novi’s

quarterback and fullback have had, Baechler would like to force the p itchout “We’re going to work our butts off to make ’em pitch it,” he said

That could lead to a mistake, something the Chiefs’ defense has excelled a t this season caus­ing turnovers Defensive back Kyle Lasko is the leader in that departm ent w ith 10 intercep­tions

Therein lies the formula for success No turnovers and con­trol the ball The defense that is best able to prevent tha t, and the offense that can execute, will prevail

“They’re averaging 35 pomts a game,” said Kellepourey “We’re real concerned w ith th a t The best way to control it is to get our offense gomg

“It comes down to which team can execute on offense ”

It’s old-style football Whichev­er team ru n s the ball be tte r, wins

Salem-CantonBaker, also a senior, reached

it'Mid knocked it into the net to tie the game at 1-1.

Which changed everything for Salem, and had McCarthy's team facing a predicament he dreaded the most: a tie game with the tide shifting dramati­cally towards the Chiefs.

Still, the Rocks w ithstood those early , d'angerous moments following B aker’s tying'goal. Indeed, if things had gone according to plan, they should have had the bet­te r scoring opportunities against the pressuring Chiefs

earlier in the second half.thought we would-get a

quick counter, but i t didn’t happen/ said McCarthy.

Salem’s goal was the result of a great individual effort by Savilskie. Both Musser, the Canton keeper, and Savhskie converged on a high ball deliv­ered into the Chiefs’ box by Salem ’s Kevin P eu ra sa a ri, Savitskie beat M usser to if, heading the ball into the goal.

It was a great play — t the end, i t wasn’t enou offset C anton 's con* attack.

Whalers from page D1

an a ss is t Weiss selected fourth in the NHL draft la s t June, now has six goals although he has played just half the sea son due to his NHL tryout

He wasn’t the only one to cash in at Guelph’s expense Chad LaRose had a goal and four assists m the game, while Kris V ernarsky contributed th ree assists and Karl Stewart scored two goals

Other goals were scored by sJames Wisniewski (from Can ton), who gave the Whalers a 1-0 first-period lead, and John Mitchell, who made it 2-0 2 50 Into the second Cole Jarrett and <Jreg Campbell each had two -assists

The Storm did rally briefly in the second period on two goals by Martin St Pierre, which nar­rowed the gap to 3 2 with 11 32 to play m the period But Weiss ended any comeback hopes with ‘two goals over the next 7 12

Jason B acashihua tu rn ed away 33 shots to earn the win m goal for Plymouth Chris Beck ford Tseu and Dwight LaBrosse were m the net for the Storm

On Friday m Sault Ste Mane, 'the Whalers twice allowed one- goal leads to escape them and had to settle for a 2-2 tie

LaRose scored from Campbell in the first period to give Ply mouth a 1-0 lead, but the Grey hounds tied it at 10 16 of the sec

ond on a goal by Rob Hisey The W halers regained the lead on Stewart’s power-play goal, from Ja rre tt and Weiss, a t 12 40 of the final period, only to lose it again on an unassisted goal by Dustin VanBallegooie with 4 02 left

Which is the way it remained Paul Drew turned away 38 shots on goal for Plym outh, Ray Emery had 29 saves for the Greyhounds

Surma returnsThe good news is getting even

better for the Plymouth WhalersGoing in to the season, the

g rea tes t fear was how they would s ta r t w ith a new coach and many of la s t year’s team having graduated to NHL try­outs Well, the s ta r t has been phenomenal, and now many of those players who were a t try­outs are returning

The la te s t is w ing Damian Surma, who has played the past three seasons with the Whalers Surma was drafted in the sixth round of the 1999 NHL entry d raft by the C arolina H u rri­canes, he had been playing with the Hurricanes’ American Hock­ey League affiliate, the Lowell Lock Monsters

Last season, Surma scored 26 goals and assisted on 34 others (60 points) m 55 games In 1999 00 he had 34 goals and 44 assists (78 points) m 66 games

Crusaders top seed in WHACNever want to lose, but at least this one

didn’t hurt Madonna University’s women’s soccer team

At le a s t not as fa r as the W olvenne- Hoosier Athletic Conference standings were concerned The Lady Crusaders had already clinched the top seed in this w eekend’s WHAC Tournament, on Saturday, they’ll host the loser of today’s make-up match between Concordia and Indiana Tech

The conference semifinals are Tuesday, with the highest seed m each semi hosting The WHAC final will be Saturday, Nov 3

Last Saturday at Aqumas College, Madon­na scored first but surrendered the tying goal with just under four minutes left in reg­ulation, then gave up the game winner near­ly 15 minutes into overtime to fall, 2 1

The loss dropped the Crusaders to 8-5 overall, 6-1 m the WHAC Aquinas is 10-7 overall, 5-2 m the conference

Becky Guibord opened the scoring for Madonna, converting a pass from Emily Jackson (from Farmington Hamson) 20 52 into the opening half Lacey Gmsberg knot­ted it for the Saints with an unassisted goal with 3 59 to play, the game-winner came from Aryn McCready at 14 50 of OT Sarah Pennington assisted

Jennifer Barker (Livonia Stevenson) had seven saves in goal for the Crusaders Erica deLongpre had four stops for Aquinas

Comeback falls shortIt could have been very interesting And Madonna University’s men’s soccer

team tried to make it so, rallying twice from a two-goal deficit in an effort to catch Aqumas College, which Was unbeaten in the WHAC entering Saturday’s regular-season league finale But the clock ran out on the Crusaders, giving Aquinas a 3-2 wm and the regular-season WHAC title Saturday at Aquinas

Madonna fell to 9-8 overall, 5-2 m the WHAC The Crusaders will be the No 3 seed m the WHAC Tournament, which starts Sat­urday Madonna hosts sixth-seeded Spring Arbor at 2 30 p m

First-half goals by Matt Roberts and Eddie Wierzbicki gave the Saints a 2-0 halftime lead The Crusaders cut that deficit m half w ith a goal by P atrick Griffin (Plymouth/Redford Catholic Central) with 17 16 left to play Dan Kurtinaitis assisted

Aquinas, however, responded with a goal by Andrew Freeman with 3 01 left, making it 3-1 Madonna didn’t surrender, answering Freeman’s goal with one of its own, this one by C asey Cook (Canton/CC) w ith 1 55 remaining But the Crusaders could not get the equalizer

M att Strabbmg and Doug Koontz (both from Plymouth Canton) divided time in goal for Madonna, combining for five saves Carl Whitehouse was in goal for Aqumas, making nine saves

SC women drawThe score would indicate nothing much

happened, but Schoolcraft College women’s coach Bill Tolstedt would definitely disagree

SC battled sixth-ranked Young H arris (G a) to a scoreless draw Saturday a t SC, which he viewed as definite progress — con­sidering they were pasted 5-1 by the same team on its home field Sept 27

“What a turnaround for us,” said Tolstedt, his team ranked 10th in the last NJCAA poll “They clobbered the hell out of us down there But this time we dominated the field of play, we were more aggressive, we con­trolled the midfield

“We’re better now than we were before We’re better than we have been ”

Tolstedt altered his lineup some since that loss at Young Harris, the only one suffered by the Ocelots this season (they are 13-1-5), moving Toni Perry from sweeper to forward Young H arris responded by pu tting two defenders on her, which made it difficult to control play in the midfield Only a few superb saves by the Young J a m s keeper kept SC from claiming victory

Amy Dorogi (Plymouth Canton) was in goal for the shutout

SC plays two matches this weekend, at Valparaiso (Ind ) University and S t Joseph (Ind ) College A fter th a t , i t ’s onto the NJCAA District B Tournament in Chicago Heights, 111, Nov 3-4 The Ocelots’ likely firs t-round opponent w ill be B ethany Lutheran (M inn) The winner goes against the winner of the Iowa Central-vs -the cham­pion of District IV match College of DuPage (111) is the favorite to emerge from District IV

Victories piling up for Madonna, SCA lot of the young players are

stepping up big-time for Madon­na University’s volleyball team, making w hat had been feared would be a rebuilding season a highly successful one

Last weekend at the Alma Col­lege Invitational, the Lady Cru saders swept to the title without losing a single game, winning all four of their matches m straight se ts The four w ins boosted Madonna’s overall record to 27 7

In Friday’s opening round, the Crusaders beat Milhkm Univer sity (Decatur, 111) 30-16, 30-18, 30-18 and Savannah Art and Design (Savannah, G a ) 30-10, 30 7, 30-18 On Saturday Madonna beat St Francis (Ind ) 30-28, 30 14, 30 22 m the semifi nals and Aquinas College 30-23 30-28, 30 20 m the final

They may be liable for inaction

I own an apart­m ent com plex where one o f my tenants w as shot by an individual who had been lo i­tering in th e lobby.

I had a security company hired and am wondering w hether or not they w ould have any liability.

That is not the common, everyday

problem faced by a homeowners asso­ciation, but it did happen

In a recent unpublished decision of the Michigan Court of Appeals on similar facts, the court cited Section 324A of the Second Restatement of Torts Based on the tort law, the court concluded that the security company had a duty to discharge its contractu­al obligations with reasonable care

Obviously, the issue of whether or not the security guard’s performance of their duty is a question of fact for the jury to decide so that there would be liability on the security company

When does a contract becom e a binding contract? What is the tim e lim it for rescission on a real estate contract? How long should I have to w ait for a refund o f my purchase price? Is there any

'* recourse to any State agency con­cerning a com plaint regarding a builder?

A contract becomes binding when both parties have signed the contract and there are no contingencies m the contract The time for which a con­tract can be rescinded would be based upon a Statute of Limitations of six years if one can establish that there was fraud m the mducement of the contract or other reasons which would justify rescission under the law

Attention to detail now will pay off when Old Man Winter shows up with his buddies - Freezing Temperature, Heavy Snow and Blustery Winds

“It’s the old story - an ounce of pre­vention is worth a pound of cure,” said Stephen Taglione, president of the Building Industry Association of South­easte rn Michigan and president of Westminster Abbey Homes m Bingham Farms

Taglione, who says he personally tends to many winterizing duties a t his own home, suggests that it’s human nature to procrastinate

“There’s a lot more fun things to do,” he said

But owners really should lavish some TLC on their houses now

“If they don’t take care of these little jobs, they’re just not protecting their investment,” said Mike Goewey, presi­dent of Property Facts Home Inspec tions m Livonia and president of the M ichigan C hapter of the N ational Association of Home Inspectors

“I t ’s also good exercise,” Goewey added

GuttersCleaning debris from gutters and

downspouts probably is the most important thing a homeowner can do to get ready for wmter, the experts agr ee - especially considering all the ice damming roof problems we’ve experi­enced in recent years

Remember to be careful on and around ladders

“Empty gutters after the leaves are down,” Goewey said “Maybe even put some gutter guards down Make sure downspouts dram water away from the home

“If you have some low spots, go ahead

and fill them m so you have a nice, gen­tle slope away from the foundationhe added

Sprinkler systemsHarry Carmack, co-owner of Summer

Sprinklers in Waterford, said his com­pany w interizes about 1,800 lawn sprinkler systems a year

The job, which requires an air com­pressor, takes about 20 minutes and costs about $55, he said If it isn’t done, problems will crop up 99 percent of the time, he added

“Things can start freezing and break­ing,” Carmack said “I t’s especially important to dram the backflow and valves It’s big money to replace them - $700 on up *

Lots of folks enjoy supplementing the ir regular hea t w ith a fireplace, which also adds a certain romantic fla­vor

“Generally speaking, if they have multiple fires a week w ith dry-sea­soned wood, fireplaces and chimneys should be cleaned on an annual basis,” said Dennis Kipp of Veteran Chimney in Royal Oak

“The natural (burning) process will create soot on the walls Build-up occurs that can be dangerous,” he said

Kipp charges $89 for a cleaning weekdays, $105 weekends

FurnacesHopefully, you’ve tested your furnace

by now, said George Klempert, owner of Family Heating & Cooling m Garden City and Madison Heights

If not and nothing seems to happen when you turn it on, check three things before calling for professional help, he said

Make sure that the thermostat is set on heat rather than cool or off, make sure the furnace power switch is m the on position, and make sure tha t the fuse or circuit breaker servicing the furnace at the electrical box is func­

tioning“There should be a nice blue flame

(on the burner) rather than orange,” Klempert added “Turn the humidifier on”

Furnaces older th an five years should be inspected professionally every two years and annually after 10 years, K lem pert said He charges $69 95 for an inspection, which includes any needed adjustments or repairs exclusive of parts

Regular filters should be replaced every six weeks, electronic or media fil­ters annually

Don’t w rap a protective covering completely around the outside air con­ditioning processor, Klempert advised “It doesn’t breathe, condensation forms, metal rots “If there’s a possibility of leaves falling in the unit or it’s under an eave and there’s the possibility of damage from icicles falling, we suggest covering the top with 3/4 inch ply­wood,” Klempert added

Here are some other simple things to do

■ Place rope caulk in gaps and shrink-wrap plastic covering around older, drafty windows

■ Make sure aluminum type roof vents are clear of debris, especially bird nests, from both inside and outside per­spectives Vents should be open all year round

■ Turn off the water supply to out­door spigots from inside shut-off valves, usually found in the basement or the kitchen of homes on a slab

■ Disconnect, dram and put away garden hoses

■ Put a little fresh gasoline in the snowblower and test it

■ Consider investing m a roof snow rake that comes with extenders and is used to clear snow off the edge of the roof and gutters

Discounting rate may make sense

I am normally not a huge fan of discount points on mortgages, but there are times that they can really make sense for certain borrowers Now may be one of those times With mortgage rates neanng a thirty-year low, adding discount pomts to your loan - more commonly known as “buying down the interest rate” — can yield some profound

financial results for borrowers m the long run

In the mortgage world, one “point” equals one percent of the borrower’s loan amount For example, one point assessed on a $90,000 mortgage would cost $900 One discount point will typi­cally reduce the interest rate of a 30- year fixed rate mortgage by about one- quarter percent For example, a bor­rower paying zero points at 7 5 percent should expect to pay about 7 25 percent after paying one discount point That formula is slightly different for shorter- term loans

By far, the most important thing for borrowers to remember about buying discount pomts is that it will only bene­fit them m the long term A borrower will normally not realize a financial benefit of a discount pomt until his loan is about five years old To this point, consider that one discount point on a $150,000 mortgage costs $1,500 and will save the borrower about $25 per month at today’s rates Not accounting for inflation, it will take that borrower 60 months, or five years, to make back the cost of his discount point

Where’s the strategy of using dis­count points’ Obviously, if you $re quite certain that the loan you are get­ting into is going to be your last for well beyond five years, you will proba­bly benefit from a discount pomt or two Retiring seniors purchasing homes stand to gam the most from dis­counting their mortgage rates, especial­ly if they do not plan to move ever again Using equity from the sale of their existing homes to buy down the interest rate on their new purchase will result in a significant increase m their net disposable income - or their “fun money” - every month This can be very important to those on a fixed income

M JBirror, mirror on the wall who’s the M j r l fairest of them all7 Thanks to Baker Fur i W i mture m Birmingham and Frame Works m Plymouth, a beautiful minor is often the fairest accessory m any room of your home

“Mirrors go anywhere ” said Joe McCambndge, manager of product design for Baker Furniture and Milling Road “They’re perfect for entrances hallways bathrooms and over mantles and side boards A mirror creates an atmosphere that accents the entire environment ”

McCambndge thinks m terms of both function and art when he designs a mirror He favors a deeply recessed glass with a frame molded from layers of different shapes for character He also prefers the versatility of guilded woods or a dark mahogany

“When it s really dark it blends well with any color” he said

Mirrors make great gifts he said Unlike paintings, mirrors are less intrusive into home decor “Making a selection of a painting is a tough commitment for most people Selecting a mirror is easier It doesn’t really create an iden tity for you

The most popular shape and size mirror sold at Baker Birmingham is the 32 inch round Few people purchase the flat rectangular mirrors that were populai a few decades ago said Cam bridge They simply don t move people ’

Baker Furniture showcases a variety of mirrors ranging in pnee from $350

to $8,000 Several styles also are available through catalogs Because the company has numerous distribution sites, orders can be pro­cessed within days

Custom-madeFrame Works which also has locations m Livo­

nia and Canton, specializes in creating multi angled, wood-framed mirrors

“The design is totally ours,” said manager Sue Gallas 1 We can decide if we want a six sided or eight-sided frame or maybe a custom designed top We also can mat a picture and do a custom mirror on the bottom ’

Owner A1 Larson perfected the multi angle cutting method that makes Frame Works’ mir rors unique “It takes specialized equipment to cut the frames and put them together Most frame shops don’t have that We’ve been practic mg the technique for some time and turn out a product that has a very good quality look ’ he said

‘The corners go together beautifully” said Gal las

An important advantage to custom-framing a mirror is proportion While commercially made mirrors are limited m size and shape custom mirrors can fit above a large fireplace or a small table

Gallas is particularly excited ibout Frame Works leaded glass nirrors, which require a deeper ’rame The mirror is set behind ;he leaded glass panel as much as ;wo inches “The farther the dis ;ance the more beautiful the effect

of the leaded glass,” she said Whether you’re buying a cus­

tom mirror for your own home or as a gift, Gallas suggests allowing three to four weeks for completion, especially with the approaching holiday season

MONTE NAGLER

h a s a lw ay s excited me tha t I ’ v e w ritten about in the past

clouds W e ’v e all found

ourselves staring at a dramatic cloud pattern, oblivious of our surroundings

Clouds come m a variety of shapes, textures and colors They can be huge and billowy or soft and wispy They can be bold and dramatic and even frightening at times Capturing them on film is exciting and w ill defin ite ly enhance your photographs

How to photograph clouds bet- ter? First, learn to really “see” them Look for shapes and pat­te rns as constantly changing cloud formations float across the

■ O nce you ‘se e ’ the c lo u d s, how do you en h an ce your photographs o f them ? Begin w ith a good se n se o f com position by using a low horizon lin e to accen tu ate th e c lo u d s and g ive your sh o t a fe e lin g o f sp acio u sn ess.

sky See how clouds can become a colorful palette a t an approaching sunset Notice how a receding black storm cloud becomes a sensational backdrop for foreground objects being lit by the rays of an emerging sun

Enjoy foggy and misty days as I do Some of the very best mood- filled pictures are shot m this type of weather

Once you “see” the clouds, how do you enhance your pho­tographs of them? Begin with a good sense of composition by using a low horizon line to accentuate the clouds and give your shot a feeling of spacious­ness

When shooting white, puffy clouds against a blue sky with

color film, use a polarizer filter Position yourself a t a 45-degree angle to the sun and rotate your polarizer until you see maximum blue The re su lt w ill be an impact-filled photograph show­ing the white clouds contrasted against a nch, deep blue sky

At sunrise and sunset, add spice to your cloud pictures by using colored filte rs such as orange or red The results (use slide film) will be truly dramatic

Black and white film “sees” w hite clouds and blue sky as identical tones and the clouds may become lost in the finished print

B ut filte rs in th e yellow, orange and red values w ill achieve cloud/sky separation for

you A yellow filter will give you norm al cloud/sky separation Orange produces more And a red f ilte r renders a blue sky alm ost black, producing very striking results

Clouds from the a ir have a character all their own as they appear like a bed of fluffy cotton Ju st set your camera a t a fast shutter speed to eliminate the airplane’s vibration and the shot is yours

Do you get turned on by sun­beams bursting through a pat­tern of dramatic clouds? Under­expose slightly and you’ll cap­ture them on your film

Here’s another idea Make a montage of slides of clouds with o th e r im ages for an unusual look Clouds superimposed over trees, a lighthouse or flying birds will result in vivid, striking pho­tographs

Halloween has become a magi­cal holiday for home decorating for boys and ghouls of all ages

Sure, ghosts, bats, monsters and scarecrows add to the fun, bu t so do less-glaring holiday tnm s

N atural decorations such as pumpkins, gourds, leaves and Indian com add to the mix and can carry your home through to Thanksgiving

You can fashion felt pillows by simple hand-sewing They’ll add a festive spirit without your hav­ing to get out the sewing machine

A vivid jack-o’-lantern and a simple checkerboard make easy holiday statem ents The ones described are 1-foot square, but you can adjust the pattern sizes to make small sachets or large tnck-or-treat bags

Pumpkin pillowFor the pumpkin pillow, use 6

by 6-mch pieces of felt in neon lime, orange, yellow and black and one-third yard of green felt O ther supplies include cotton embroidery floss m pink, orange and black, and fiberfill for stuff­ing the pillow

Trace the pumpkin pattern (or one of your own) onto tracing paper and cut out Cut one frame shape from neon lime felt and two 12 by 12-inch squares from green Center the frame on one green square Pm in place and s titch w ith s tra ig h t stitches around the outside using orange floss and around the mside using pink Use three plies of floss for all stitches

Use black floss to attach the features to the pumpkin Make a French knot in the center of each eye P in th e jack-o’-lan tern inside the frame Stitch around the edges using black floss and straight stitches

Checkerboard pillowThe checkerboard pillow calls

for a 19 by 12-inch piece of felt in black and orange and one-third yard of camel felt Also, cotton embroidery floss in orange and purple and fiberfill for stuffing the pillow

C ut four 6 by 1-inch strips each from orange and black felt Cut two 12 by 12-inch squares from camel felt Lay the orange strips side by side, and weave over and under with the black strips Pm the square centered onto one camel felt base Using three plies of purple floss and straight stitches, stitch around the outside edges of the woven sq u a re

To finish the pillows, pin the pillow front to the remaining 12- mch felt square Stitch the front to the back with blanket stitches using floss Leave a 10-mch opening on one side for stuffing with fiberfill Stitch pillow shut

Today’s ranges maintain hotter surfaces \■ M any consum ers are w ary o f th e co o k to p tem ­peratu res o f th e range. They’re co n cern ed about heat ex itin g the oven ven t, h eat on th e o u tsid e oven door su rfa ce , and even heat on th e s id e pan­e ls .

C h ild ren are hospital­

ized every year, suffer­ing from burns to th e ir hands, arm s and upper bodies

It is alarm­ing to h ear about the lit­tle innocent ones who happen to

brush up against the kitchen range while they’re stall learning to get around and how th a t sometimes re su lts m th ird - degree burns

I’m sure that we have all felt the sting of a burn at one time or another, but a little toddler cer­ta in ly should not have to go

through that pain and suffering because a kitchen range isn’t built the way it should be by a manufacturer

Running hotYes, I’m saying it again about

the appliances of yesteryear Ranges used to get hot on the outside, but not so hot that they burned your hands My simple engineering background tells me that the metal on kitchen ranges is not thick enough and the insu­lation value is inadequate Why else would they get so hot today9

There is a story m the Appli­ance Service News written by a “Captain Toolhead ” It shocked me to read this information and I’m sure it will alarm you The title is, “Allowable surface temps on gas and electric ranges ”

Many consumers are wary of th e cooktop tem peratu res of

ranges They’re concerned about heat exiting the oven vent, heat on the outside oven door surface, and even heat on the side panels On 30-inch, free-standing gas and electric ranges, you must be able to effectively measure tem­peratures to reduce consumer fears of bums and know temper­ature limits

Heat can transferThe following procedures from

the Underwriters Laboratories

and American Gas Association help you measure temperatures on oven side panels and doors

Surface tem p era tu res are based on a room temperature of 77° F and an oven set at 400° F The oven must be heated to 400° for one hour before testing The product m ust be undam aged, assembled correctly, and heated to the proper oven temperature An increase or decrease of one degree in the room allows a one degree increase or decrease m

the maximum allowable surface temperature of the range

Now the cooktop, lower console or oven vent area will not reach that 400° mark Consumers still should try to understand the dif­ferences between conducted, con­vened and radiated heat If the heat from a burner cannot be absorbed into a cooking vessel, the h ea t not absorbed can migrate by any or all of these three ways to the surrounding cooking surfaces, thus increasing cooktop temperature

There are many variab les involved in reducing or increas­ing the cooktop area heat type and size of cookware, cooktop material, such as glass or porce­lain, and length of cooking time These all contribute to cooktop surface temperatures

Change furnace filters and follow these tips before winter■ U se com pact flu o rescen t bu lbs in lig h ts that a re turned on fo r long period s o f tim e. Though som ew hat expensive to purchase, th e longer life and low er operating co sts m ake th e se bu lbs a p ractica l investm ent.

I t ’s soeasy to put off thechores of

ge ttin g our homes ready for w in te r un til w inter is upon us Now I’m not th e m aster procrastina­tor, but easi­ly m the top 10 and I ten d to be “c o s t - c o n ­

scious” (the politically correct term for cheap) W ith th is in mind let’s look at some simple, inexpensive things we can do to get ready for the winter season

Change the fu rnace f ilte r often Depending on the brand and how often the blower runs, it should be changed every three weeks (for inexpensive mat fil­ters) to every three months (for the high-efficiency p leated types) Read the package’s direc­

tions for recommendations Dirty filters make your furnace motor work harder and the air in your home more difficult to breathe

If you feel real ambitious, con­sider installing an electronic set­back thermostat They’re avail­able at home improvement stores for as little as $30 and are rela­tively easy to install

Save on lightingBecause the nights last longer

m the winter means lights are on longer Use compact fluorescent bulbs m lights that are turned on for long periods of time Though somewhat expensive to purchase, the longer life and lower operat­ing costs make these bulbs a practical investment

The fall is an excellent time to caulk outside Moderate temper­atu res makes caulk easier to work with and it will hold up better

D rafty doors and windows need to be addressed There are many simple, easy and inexpen­sive ways to deal w ith these, from self-stick weather stripping to heat shnnkable window films Of course, better ways to fix this problem would include window replacem ent and/or having a makeup air device added to your furnace Make-up air keeps the air pressure m your home close to outside levels, which helps reduce drafts These are costly and often not for the do-it-your­selfer

Take a few m inutes to look over yoijr fireplace and chimney Pay atten tion to cracks m the masonry If you are still burning wood in your fireplace, I suggest having the chimney checked for creosote and cleaned if necessary

Looking outsideA quick walk around your yard

w ith a fertilizer spreader will help give your lawn a head start on next spring

Get your garden ready Our friend, a master gardener, puts wire cages around his roses and fills these with composted horse manure He feels leaf mulch pro­motes black spot on the roses

Mice don’t rea lly like cold weather and can find the small­est opening to get into your home, and they like to eat just about every thing you do Since our house is near a field, we set m ousetraps in the fall I f you prefer using non-lethal traps, release the furry little friend well away from the house

Finally, it’s never too early to

check your snow removal equip­ment Put some fresh gas m your snow blower, change the spark plug and start it This is much better than my usual method of waiting for the first large snow­fall, then try ing to s ta r t the blower and then cursing while you shovel

Technology expected to change space needs in tomorrow’s homes4J ★

Each year residential archi tects discuss trends in housing designs a t the In te rn a tio n a l Builders’ Show sponsored by the National Association of Home Builders

One of the biggest factors impacting design is how technol ogy will change the space needs in the home said Stephen J Taghone, president of Building Industry Association of South eastern Michigan and of West minster & Abbey Homes in Bing ham Farms

With the option of telecommut­ing expanding throughout the

country, people will need dedicat ed home office space with appro p n a te telephone, fax, modem and computer service While this will create a more fluid workday with less rigid lines between pro fessional and personal lives, it will also affect the use of space m the home and family dynam1 C S

“In addition, people are look ing to the home to be their cen ter for entertainment,” Taglione said Many homes will have media rooms with sophisticated sound and video systems built in or retrofitted to suit the owners

Life cycle housing is another trend in home design Many peo pie are moving less, and they want their homes to grow and change w ith them as they go through different stages m their lives

For example, a builder may offer a home w ith th ree bed rooms today, but he 11 give the new owner the option to finish an attic or garage area as needed to accommodate a new child or a parent tha t comes to live with the family

Other homes will be placed on a lot so that there will be plenty

of room to add an addition for a family room or sitting area, and the owner can see the plans for that addition when the original house is purchased This will also help when the owner wants to sell the home since the floor plan is flexible and can meet the needs of many potential buyers

Garages are likely to be set back from the s tre e t and be attached or detached depending on the market In addition the space above the garage can be flex space for la te r additions such as an in law suite or home office Garages are increasing m

size to an average of th ree berths, both to accommodate more vehicles in the household and to provide more storage space

We w ill see more fea tu res designed for casual entertaining such as fron t porches and expanded kitchens and family rooms Dining and living rooms are becoming m ulti-purpose rooms

Maintain gutters to maintain your home

Now th a t fall is here, many homeowners are beginning to winterize their homes to ensure they won t incur any problems from the harsh winter weather

Yet among of the most over looked areas of home m ainte nance are the gutters

According to Tom Hutchins owner of HandyPro Handyman Service in Southfield proper gutter maintenance in the fall can elim inate many potential problems homeowners can face during the winter months

Most people spend a lo t of time putting away lawn furni­ture changing their furnace fil­ters or making sure their win­dows are sealed with weather­stripping but they neglect to clean and check the gu tte rs Hutchins said

If the home s gutters are full of leaves and debris, aren t proper ly aligned or have leaks m the seams it could cause problems when the winter snows melt m the spring

To ensure gutters are ready for the w inter H utchins sug gests the following maintenance tips

B Clean leaves and o ther debris from the inside of the gut ters and make sure the holes going to the downspouts are kar to allow water to run freely H Check the seams in the gut

ters and downspouts for leaks If the seams are leaking, clean the seam w ith a w ire b ru sh to remove old caulk or adhesive, and recau lk w ith a silicone caulk

B Make sure the downspouts dram far enough away from the home to avoid puddles m the grass Buy downspout exten sions to help the water dram far ther from the home if necessary

B Check the gutters to ensure they are aligned properly to allow water to flow to the down spouts If they aren’t aligned properly, reposition them to increase the water flow toward the downspouts

Properly working g u tte rs allow water to drain quickly and away from the house, which helps alleviate the potential for ice dams building up and caus mg roof leaks Hutchins said

Water from leaky gutters can also drip on a porch or sidewalk, which could th en freeze and cause someone to slip and fall, he said

While some gu tte r m a in te ­nance is fairly simple, others could be more complicated for the average homeowner, espe­cially if people don’t like to be on top of their roof, he said

Many homeowners, especially senior citizens aren t comfort­able climbing on a roof to clean or fix their gutters, and we get a lot of calls during this time of year to handle people’s gutter maintenance or to replace the gutters ” Hutchins said

Don’t forget to mulch your trees this fallThe freezing temperatures of

winter can be hard on trees’ root systems, and preventative mea­sures must be taken to ensure the health of trees

Roots are more vulnerable to cold winters because they do not “harden” like the plant’s crown as the temperatures drop Roots can barely withstand tempera­tures a few degrees below freez­ing

When the temperature is very low and snow covers the ground, roots are protected from extreme cold by the insulating layer of snow But when the temperature is low and there is no snow, root systems may be vulnerable if the ground temperature drops below

their tolerance levelMulch helps protect roots from

being injured by low tem pera­tures by providing an insulating layer and protecting the ground underneath it from cooling as quickly as the air It also protects the critical root zone of the tree from competition for water and n u tr ie n ts from tu rfg ra ss or weeds

Additionally, m ulching pro­vides a “landscape bed” buffer zone th a t can help protect the base of the tre e ’s tru n k from becoming dam aged by lawn mowers

Remove the tu r f and weeds within a two-foot circle around the trunk and preferably within

a five- to six-foot circ 1 e around the tree Choose organic mulch like bark or wood chip»

Apply the mulch to a depth of 2 to 4 inches The mulch bed can be as large as is practi cal, but it should be a t le ast <3 to 5 feet from the tru n k Thus reduces com petition from w eeds and m inim izes the p o te n tia l for mower injury Also, n t will con­serve moisture and ke ep the soil cooler m summer ancl warmer in winter

Do not over-mulch This can make it harder for tile roots to get oxygen Mulch should be maintained at a deptli of 2 inch­es on clay soils and 4 inches on sandy soils at the p lan ts’ drip

line, tapering to nothing just oiff>7 side the stem

Symptoms of root damage are wilted, brown leaves or a gener* ‘ a lly weak appearance These 1 signs often do not appear unfit* la te spring or ea rly sum m ef” beeauste as temperatures w arm 7 and the ground becomes dry, the 7 damaged roots cannot take up enough water and nutrients to~ support the plant I

“Having a collection or looking for antiques is a nice kind of hobby as well ”

Shagena’s favorite antiques include Queen Anne and Shera­ton items, but a tour of the cozy shop reveals a wide variety of pieces The arrangement helps a visitor to visualize the furnish­ings in a residence

The counter by the front door is behind a bank te lle r’s cage from Boyne City, Mich , dating from the early 1900s Except for the welcome sign, the cage is in the original condition

A bell from a locomotive stands on a pedestal Graceful oak furnishings are arranged m rooms Elegant beauty is dis­played in porcelain An assort­ment of walking sticks (canes), including one with a folding seat, shows a range of personalities
