Planners OK special use for Massey landBY BRAD KADRICHSTAFF WRITER

Plymouth Township planning commis­sioners Wednesday pushed the township a baby step closer to a new township hall

The planning commission voted unan­imously to approve a special-use for land the township is negotiating to buy from Don Massey The nine-acre parcel is cur­rently zoned for residential, and the township wants to put a new township

complex there Granting o f the special- use designation was part o f the deal before M assey and the township could put finishing touches on the purchase o f the land

The action was taken at a public hear­ing before more than 5 0 residents at St Kenneth’s Church on Haggerty The com­m ission moved the m eeting, generally held at township hall, to accommodate what figured to be a large crowd

Commissioners and residents listened

for nearly two hours as Jim Anulewicz, the township’s director o f municipal serv­ices, laid out the plan both for the town­ship complex and the development o f the other 17 acres owned by Massey that front Ann Arbor Road

The joint development is part o f the agreement between M assey and the township M assey plans a commercial development m the front 17 acres, which is zoned for the Ann Arbor Road Corridor District, anchored by a Farmer

Jack grocery store The parties have been negotiating for som e tim e on exactly what the commercial developm ent will look like, w ith the township insisting it fit the design parameters o f the Ann Arbor Road Corridor zoning preferences

“W e didn’t w ant to see a typical shop­ping center,” Anulewicz said “We had a directive that it would be som ething dif­ferent”

AFSCME local OKs contract; township boardBY BRAD KADRICHSTAFF WRITER

After more than 18 months o f wran­gling over the language of the first con­tract between Plymouth Township and the American Federation o f State, County and M unicipal Employees, the sides have finally worked out a deal

The township s AFSCME local Wednesday night voted 27-1 to ratify a contract with the township The town­ship board is expected to take up the matter at its O ct 22 meeting

‘ There are areas that were discussed

that still need a lot o f attention/ said N ichole Hunt, president o f the local “There are issues (the township) is aware need to be addressed Overall, the docu­m ent is a good base for us ”

M ost o f the bones o f contention, according to Hunt, deal with the areas o f classification andjob description

The five-year deal is retroactive to Jan 1, 2 0 0 0 and expires D ec 31, 2004 The union includes 36 clerical positions, although som e of them are currently unfilled

Because the board still has to vote on it, neither side was ready to disclose the

agreem ents parameters Township supervisor Steve Mann did say earlier that the contract is ‘comparable to what our other union groups received ” Township officials agreed to a contract with its police officers last year that included a 3 25 percent pay hike

W hile he couldn t comment on the specifics o f the new deal, Mann said he was glad the protracted procedure, which included informational pickets o f township m eeting by union employees, was finished

‘We’re very pleased/ Mann Wednesday night “I think it’s an equi­

table agreem ent It passed 27-1, so that’s an outstanding indication it’s fair and equitable We’re very happy w ith that ”

The clerical workers organized their union local m early 2 0 0 0 , but negotia­tions didn’t start until Feb 14,2001

“It took longer than we would have liked, but there were a lot o f issues to be hammered out/ Mann said

M ann said he expects to have the con­tract on the agenda for board action at its Oct 22 m eeting That m eeting starts at 7 p m at Plymouth Township Hall

western Wayne County through a community-based station, Huron Valley Ambulance has created an Eastern Operations division headquarters m the city o f Plymouth

Space for ambulances and offices is being provided by the Plymouth Department of Municipal Services at 1231 Goldsmith The station became operational earlier this summer

HVA has provided 911 service in the Plymouth-NorthviUe area since 1990

Now, paramedic emergency ambulances which cover north­west Wayne County will start and end their shifts at the new station

“Western Wayne County is a growing area for HVA, and it is

appropriate that we have on-site leadership to work with our staff, fire departments, community leaders and the public,” said Paul Hood, HVAs vice president for Eastern Operations “In our first three months, the benefits o f having HVA leadership closer to the area have become apparent to u s”

U.S. House hopefuls use forum to paint contrasts in electionBY MATT JACHMANSTAFF WRITER

The few shots fired during Wednesday’s forum for local Congressional hopefuls were muffled - literally -b y technical problems

“I’m going to go hoarse by the tim e th is is a ll over,’ shouted Republican Thaddeus McCotter, a state senator from Livonia, as he introduced himself, without a public address system and over noisy ventilation, to the crowd at the Canton High School cafete­ria McCotter, Dem ocrat Kevin Kelley and Green Party nom inee W illiam Boyd fielded 30 ques­tio n s from th e au d ien ce and made campaign pitches during the 90-m inute program spon­sored by the League o f W omen V oters o f N o rth w est W ayne C ounty and th e O bserver Newspapers

The three are vying to repre­sent Michigan’s npw 11th Congressional District, which includes Livonia, Westland, Garden City, Plymouth, the townships o f Redford, Canton and Plymouth, and other parts o f western Wayne and Oakland counties Kelley, Redford’s super­visor, repeatedly emphasized dif­ferences between him self and McCotter, especially on the issues o f d ie economy, d ie feder­al budget and government spending

economy; taxes

> “For a politician to say, *1 w ill

never raise taxes, to me, is irre sponsible, Kelley said The elder George Bush had to reverse such a pledge, as president, to stem the tide o f federal red ink, Kelley said

In a time o f a slowed economy, a federal budget deficit and a war on terrorism, Kelley says, the tax cuts o f last year should not be made permanent

“I don’t th ink we need to go back to the bad old days where deficits overwhelm the economy,’ Kelley said

McCotter said that not contin­uing the tax cuts would throw an “u n certa in econ om y” in to a recession Government spending causes only a short-term boost for foe economy, he said, and the best thing is to let workers keep more o f what they earn

“The governm ent does not grow th e econom y The American people do,’ McCotter said He blamed budget deficits o f the 1980s on runaway spend­in g by a C ongress w ith a Democratic majority

BOYD DRAWS CONTRASTS

However, it was Boyd, a gov­ernm ent teacher in Plymouth- Canton was on friendly turf who se t h im se lf apart m ore than M cC otter or K elley He expressed skepticism about a possib le war w ith Iraq, which President George W Bush says may be necessary, and blam ed many o f the nation’s ills on politi­cians who, he said, are beholden to business and special interests

K u rt G n a g e y o f P ly m o u th , fr o m le ft , Z a c k Dunlap o f C a n to n , J a n e DeW itt and Tina Sm e gow ski b o th o f P ly m o u th all 15 , listen to th e ca n d id ate s forum m C anto n High School s c a fe te ria W ednesday

Kevin Kelley le ft and Thaddeus M c C o tte r rig h t listen to c o m m e n ts fro m Bill B o y d , c e nter, a t th e ca n d id ate s fo ru m m C anton High School's c a fe te ria W ednesday

because o f those groups cam ­paign contributions

They re voting for whats best for the people who pay, and the first thing I would do is work on real campaign finance reform, Boyd said

Boyd called for an end to soft m oney and d o n ation s from businesses and political action committees, and a $500 lim it on individual contnbutions

He turned sarcastic when first Kelley and then McCotter said corporate officials should be held accountable for illega lities in their companies

‘Well, we all agree that it s a bad th in g to have corporate crim inals, Boyd said He w ent on to cite the influence of cam paign contnbutions as key to the recen t scan d als ‘N oth in g is going to change, he said

WAR AT ISSUE

Many questions dealt w ith a possible war in Iraq, and both Kelley and M cCotter said they would support President Bush if he decides to use force over that country’s acquisition o f weapons of mass destruction

Kelley, however, showed less enthusiasm for such a war, say­ing force should be used judi­ciously1 and that he is concerned about the long term stability o f the region and losing sight o f the

broader war on terror Any war m Iraq should be multilateral, he said, especially when it comes to financing it

M cCotter w as m ore certain, saying Iraq w ould be a battle ground in the war on terror

“Imagine what would happen w ere Iraq to o b ta in n u clear weapons,” McCotter said

H e said die U S should take a lesson from the appeasement by E uropean d em ocracies o f H itler s N azi G erm any in the 1930s

In the end, m illions o f people were killed and economies were destroyed, he said

Boyd, who said he supports Sen Carl Level's resolution that the U S military take action only i f U n ited N a tio n s w eapons in sp e c tio n s fa il, la ter w as increasingly critical o f a move toward war (The Senate later in th e w eek approved a m easure supporting d ie use o f force)

Bush should publicize the evi­dence against Iraq, Boyd said W e are now seeing an executive branch and a legislative branch th at w ishes to sh oot first and look for evidence later,” he said

GUN CONTROL

McCotter, who is endorsed by

&

the National Rifle A ssociation, parted company with Boyd and Kelley when he deflected a ques­tion about continuing a ban on a ssa u lt w eapons and h avin g background checks and waiting periods for firearm purchases

‘ The damage that is done by our society is done by the crimi­nals with illegally owned guns, McCotter said

Kelley said he is pro Second Amendment b\it that measures such as background checks and w aiting periods are ‘com m on- sense legislation

“If this sniper (in Washington D C , and its suburbs) was per­form ing a hit-and-run w ith an automobile, we would be able to track down that autom obile,” Boyd said

K elley and Boyd b oth said they would vote to continue a ban on private ow n ersh ip o f assault weapons

On other issues ■ All three were m favor o f a

national prescription drug plan for senior citizens

“We’re the richest nation on Earth If we’re prepared to spend 200 billion in Iraq, then surely w e sh ou ld try to fin d th e resou rces to h e lp o ld er A m ericans w ith p rescrip tion drug benefits, Kelley said

■ Answering a question about help for working families, McCotter said the best way gov­ernment can help them is to lower taxes

“We cant give you more tim e, but we can reduce the amount o f tim e you spend working for gov­ernment,’ he said

The questioner had described h im self or h erse lf as ‘ an avid ‘W est W ing’ w atcher,’ w hich sp ark ed th is q u ip from McCotter W e could stop watch­ing W est W ing and spend more tim e with our kids '

Kelley and Boyd disagreed w ith McCotter’s lower-taxes solution

“W orking fam ilies don t want $600 back,” said Boyd, referring to th e tax refund o f la st year ‘They w ant help w ith m edical insurance, they want help with prescription drug coverage, they want help with day-care issues they w ant quality of-life issues taken care of, like our crumbling environment ’

■ Kelley said the war on ter ronsm is “going to involve dimimshment o f civil liberties H e added “I think we have to err on the side o f caution”

Boyd, on the other hand, said h e w ould w ork to rep eal th e Patnot Act, which, he said, gives the government too much power to spy on its citizens W e can protect this country without tak­ing away our civil rights, he said

M cCotter, who supports the P atn ot A ct, agreed w ith Boyd p h ilo so p h ica lly In th e end , security w ithout liberty is false security, he said

Debate moderator AnneMane H udak said about 3 0 0 people showed up for the forum, which was taped for use by local cable television stations

H udak said th at th e can d i­dates had to strain to be heard brought m ore em otion to the forum and rem in d ed h er o f political debates before the tim e of public address systems

“T h ey d id n ’t h ave m icro­phones, and they had to scream,” she said

Dan M alone, the U S Taxpayers Party candidate for the Congressional seat, did not attend the forum

JOSEPH wMERCY

HEALTH SYSTEMA MEMBER OF TRINITY HEALTH

through the Christmas holidays Kevin Felts, president of

Plymouth Jewelry & Gifts on Starkweather, has put up a dis­play o f lithographs o f paintings done by the late comic Red Skelton The collection depicts Skelton’s famous “clown” paint­ings

It also includes an original, “The Legends,’ done in mixed media on Imen

“We want to tell the communi­ty that everyone’s favorite clown was also an artist,” said Felts, who borrowed the collection from long-tim e friends Bob and Sharon Osborn o f Northville “The same Red Skelton you saw on TV all those years was a fan­tastic artist”

The Osborns bought their first Skelton lithograph while honey­mooning m Hawaii in 1984 Three years later, they were invited back to Honolulu for Skelton’s 74th birthday

‘W e went back, and that’s when we bought ‘The Legends,” Bob Osborn said ‘W e’ve enjoyed the collection, and will continue to, but (Felts) is a good friend, and he wanted to put it up m the store, and we said yes ”

The store had been displaying a collection o f what Felts called cave’ art, which he took down m

favor o f the Skelton lithographs The collection holds a special place for its owners

“(Skelton) was such a fabulous man if you got to know him, as we did when we were m Hawaii,” Bob Osborn said ‘He’s so diver­sified in what he’s done - TV, movies, m usic”

Osborn recalled seeing Skelton m a performance at the Fox Theatre in Detroit several years ago, and was impressed “He wrote all the music for that per-

shopping, and stop by to see a slice o f Americana

“People seem to like Red Skelton,’Felts said ‘It’s amazing tom e I just love him (The litho­graphs) are colorful, the facial expressions are so real People seem to like that”

O f course, Felts is also a busi­nessman

“It’s an ‘interest draw,’” he said

Its that quality Felts is hoping will draw people to Old Village Felts suggests patrons could make a “quaint dayofitinO ld Village - come to dine, do a little

School board accepts resignation of teacher accused of improper e-mailsBY T O N Y BRUSCATOSTAFF WRITER

The Plym outh-Canton school board Tuesday night accepted the resignation o f a Canton H igh School social studies teacher who is being investigated for allegedly sending inappropriate e-m ails to a student earlier this year

Steve M ercatante had been on paid leave since March 5 after district officials found

out about the e-m ails, which reportedly ‘contained inap­propriate com m ents and sexu­al innuendo ’ to an 18-year-old student

Since M ercatante didn’t have tenure, a school district official said they were going to recommend that M ercatante s contract not be renewed He had been a teacher for more than three years

M ercatante had been being paid during the inquiry until

about two w eeks ago, accord­ing to a school district source

Canton Township police detectives indicate their inves­tigation is com plete and they ve given the evidence to th e Wayne County prosecu­tor’s office A decision on whether to charge M ercatante could com e as early as next week

City clerk hopes program will spur local votersBY TONY BRUSCATOSTAFF WRITER

Plymouth City Clerk Linda Langmesser takes voting very seriously, and she wishes more voters would show that same enthusiasm.

Voting is a privilege, and I think it’s the responsibility o f everybody to exercise the right to vote,” she said

During city com m ission races, Langmesser said, ‘ you re lucky if you get 15 percent par­

ticipation In som e elections, where there are m ore impor­tant or controversial issues to decide, Langm esser said the percentage can jum p to the 30- percent range

It s never w hat you want it to be, but when you look at the 7,000 registered voters m the city, we’ve never had over 35 percent, and that’s unfortu­nate,’ she said

In an effort to increase vot­ing percentages in the Nov 5 election, Langm esser has

begun a program which honors veterans at the polls Called ‘My Vote Honors a Vet,” it’s a progra/n that has been initiat­ed m other states, and Langmesser is hoping it catch­es on m Plymouth

‘ It’s a pilot program for hon­oring veterans at the November elections,’ she said “The prem ise is to encourage voting at a tim e when there is so much cynicism about poli­tics, and to honor veterans who helped make sure we have that

privilege ’When Voters go to the polls

N ov 5, they w ill be given a lapel sticker that acknowledges a particular veteran The stick­er, with an American flag, states “My Vote Honors a Vet,” and has a line where the voter can write the nam e of a veteran their vote honors

Langmesser is hoping veter­ans’ groups w ill also becom e involved in the program

“I’m hoping veterans will come forth and get involved in

th is program, and participate by appearing at the polls to hand out stickers and make them selves known,’ she said ‘ Because o f the state o f the country, and w ith so many o f our m ilitary going to war, I think th is is a good program to honor them ’

Veterans who want to partic­ipate can contact Langmesser at (734) 453-1234, Ext 234

zens and referrals from places like the Salvation Army and First Step,” added Warkoczeski “They just have to live in the school district and prove they are receiving som e sort o f gov­ernment assistance ”

Warkoczeski said she receives referrals from principals, teach­ers, nurses, counselors and social workers

After eligibility is established, entire wardrobes are given to those in need

“They get to choose six pairs o f pants, up to three pairs of shoes, a coat, snow pants, boots, new underwear and socks, paja­mas just about everything they need,” she said ‘They can come once m the spring and

once m the fell We feel that it’s very generous”

Despite die economic status o f western Wayne County, Warkoczeski said there is a need for the clothing bank m Plymouth, Plymouth Township and Canton Township

“We helped about 75 families last year, totaling more than 4 0 0 people,” she said

“We’ve had fam ilies as large as 11-12 people here looking for help

"Some are one-tim e users Maybe they lost a job, or a fire wiped them out, or maybe an illness, They just need some­thing to get them over the hump,” said Warkoczeski “And, w e have some people who come back every year N o one, not even the school district, knows who comes here”

Warkoczeski said she also gets positive reaction from peo­

ple who donate clothes “They are really glad to give them to people who live m their com­munity, and they know people don’t have to pay for it,” she said

Warkoczeski also credits Visteon, the Plymouth Businesswoman’s Club, Kiwams and Canton Rotary w ith help­ing to make the clothing bank a success

The clothing bank was start­ed m 1977by Flossie Tonda, a Plymouth-Canton school board member from 1975-1984.

“She saw what it did to kids, having to wear the sam e clothes every day,’ said Warkoczeski “If that’s one worry you can take away from a kid, w ell, we all know how peer pressure is If they can go to school and con­centrate on school work instead o f how they look “

The clothing bank is open

POLICEFR O M P A G E A1

pered that effortPolice Chief Wayne Carroll

has taken on the responsibility o f enforcing parking in the two mam business districts in the city

W ith the designation o f a liaison officer to specifically address needs downtown and in Old Village, Carroll believes the problems can be resolved

“Parking has always been an issue because there’s not enough to go around,” said Carroll

“What we’re trying to do is get som e continuity and con­sistency to it That’s one o f the issues Brian w ill be address­ing”

As a result o f inconsistent enforcement, there has been an abandonm ent o f parking rules which call for free park­

ing on the top o f the down­town parking deck, four-hour parking on the lower deck, and two-hour parking on the streets

“Areas that have been desig­nated for custom ers have been used by merchants and their employees who don’t want to park elsewhere,” said Carroll “Many shop owners have com­plained there are overtime parking issues

“If employees park there, businesses are losm g opportu­nities They want that turnover’

W ith consistent enforcement com es parking tickets Sue Gallas, who m anages Frame Works on Penmman, likes the idea of a liaison officer down­town, but isn’t in favor o f tick­eting those who park too long

“Some o f our customers may spend more than a couple o f hours waiting for their framing and going to lunch,” said

Gallas“We don’t w ant our cus­

tom ers ticketed and then see them go away W e told him (Walker) our business would pay the ($5) tick et”

Larry Bird, w ho owns Gabnala’s on M ain Street, said the practice o f ticketing is to keep employees from parking in the prime spaces

“If he chalks tires m the morning and com es back about 9 a .m , he’ll end up get­ting all em ployees, which is OK,” said Bird

"If he marks tires at noon and comes back at 2 p m , he’ll be ticketing custom ers, which is not good The w hole idea o f the program is to move em ployees”

DDA Director Bob Anderson supports having an officer ded­icated to both downtown and O ld Village

“I think som e type o f parking enforcem ent is really neces-

MASSEYFROM PAGE A1

The plan is for the township to buy the nine acres from Massey, at a price o f about $16 m illion, and then sell the three acres on which the current complex rests According to Plymouth Township Supervisor Steve Mann, the township has already been offered more money for its current parcel than it would pay for d ie Massey property

The new township complex would include all departments of the township government, including the police depart­ment, to be house m one two- story structure The new com­plex would also include a new Fire Station N o 1

It was the location o f the new fire station that drew the m ost concern from residents As the plan was presented Wednesday, emergency vehicles would exit the fire station onto Haggerty That idea was met with resist­ance from residents fo r several reasons, including objections about noisy sirens and bright headlights flashing into the hom es across Haggerty, and also the safety o f school chil­dren attending Allen Elementary, which is right down the road

Since maintenance o f Haggerty is the responsibility o f Wayne County, Anulewicz told residents he’d spoken to county officials

“We have indicated to the county they need to make improvements to that area,” he said “That would include widening the road ”

There was also considerable discussion about the commer­cial development, being han­dled by Arkan Jonah o f W est Bloomfield The development w ill consist o f a 129,000- square-foot building, 55,000 square feet o f which will house the Farmer Jack

The presence o f the grocer caused a bit o f reaction, since it was Farmer Jack that vacated its Mam Street store and left it vacant for years

‘Farmer Jack has a very bad reputation m Plymouth because o f what happened with that building on Main Street,” Commissioner Bill Pratt told Jonah at the m eeting “You have to be awai e of that

Jonah, who said Farmer Jack hasn t yet made a firm commit­m ent to the project, neverthe­less vouched for the grocer, pointing out his company and Farmer Jack have worked together before

Director o f municipal services

“Farmer Jack and us have been working on this project for two years,” Jonah said ‘ There’s a mutual understand­ing and a mutual need for both of us to get this done ”

The entire development will include a 65-foot setback from the residential neighborhood to the north, made up o f the cur­rent vegetation (if it’s strong enough, Anulewicz said) or som e mounding with evergreen trees

“I f w hat is there is simply undergrowth, we will involve all the neighbors,” Anulewicz said

The front o f the commercial portion will be bordered by a 45-foot setback consisting o f trees and water features Residents pointed out that past plans for that parcel have not been aesthetically pleasing

W e tried to work with the developer to make the (frontage) image different, Anulewicz said

"We think we’ve accom­plished that It w ill be a visual image I know we don’t have m this township, and I think you’d be hard-pressed to find anywhere”

Concerns surrounding the

commercial portion o f the development centered around environmental questions and traffic patterns Anulewicz said a traffic light, w ith a left-turn signal, 'Will be installed at Gold Arbor and Ann Arbor Road, which w ill be the mam entry to

the commercial part o f the development

There w ill also be a lane added for west-bound traffic to turn right into the develop­ment, Anulewicz said Township resident James Barberet just bought his house

a little m ore than a month ago H is property backs up to the m ne-acre parcel the township would be buying He said he’s seen anim als and other forms o f nature back there, and thinks th e complex w ill harm that

W e see deer and fawns and squirrels and even moles,” Barberet said “I don’t see the benefit to my kids o f taking them and saying, ‘Here’s a ' building, or this is asphalt,’” Barberet said

P umpkins are about more than carving faces and baking pies Carve a jack-o’-lantern w ith its m outh looking like a b ig “O ” Then take

the stringy, seedy pumpkin m eat that was scooped out and place it in front of the pum pkin on a table, have som e of the goo hanging out o f the m outh - make it look like the jack-o -lantern is throw ing up its insides, that s sure to im press neighborhood kids

Choosing a pumpkin is part o f

After choosing the pumpkin com es th e decision - bake, carve or both Em ployees like Krause, the assistant manager at Plym outh Orchards, eagerly share pumpkin suggestions and know l­edge, such as

■ Use sm aller pum pkins for p ies - three to five pounds Bigger pum pkins are tougher and the m eat isn’t as sw eet

n Garlic adds zip to pumpkin seeds Rinse the seeds and spread olive o il on a cookie sheet M ix seeds with garlic, salt and pepper and place on tray Bake at 350°F for eight m inutes and give the seeds som e extra crunch by turning the broiler on for the last two m inutes, (baking for a total o f 10 m in u tes)

■ Pumpkin butter is easy to m ake and is great on apples and peanut b ut­ter sandwiches

“It’s good to remember th at pum pkins that are too b ig are usually too tough, stringy and hard to work with,” Krause said “They don’t have as m uch

* flavor”Big pum pkins are best for carv­

ing or baking the seeds Penrod said it s a good year for

pumpkins M ichigan is one o f the leading growers o f pumpkins nation­wide - nearby M acomb County being number one m production

Penrod said that w hile there’s m ore to pumpkins than pie, it’s still the m ost requested recipe Cookbooks at Blake’s are filled w ith ideas Pumpkin pie, cookies, stew, butter and cheese cake

For kids, pum pkin patches aren’t about food, they’re m agical places where each vivid orange ball is exam ­ined for its jack-o’-lantern potential

Cakebread Cellars innovations lead to superb winesSome things that you learn make

you feel a tad old Like learning that Cakebread Cellars in the Napa

Valley w ill celebrate its 30th anniversary next year

Yet this feeling o f old quickly disap­peared when we recently discussed with Dennis Cakebread, ongoing plans his parents, Jack and Dolores Cakebread, founders o f the winery, have We believe that their commitment to ever higher quality, including their w ines and life m general, has kept them young in spirit

Like so many wine pioneer fam ilies o f the 1970s, the Cakebreads did not come to the w ine industry with wealth, accu­mulated from a highly successful busi­ness unrelated to wine For many years

E le a n o r & R a y

H eald

F O C U S 0 1 ) after theyWine Pur- J

chased the ranch that became the vm e-

i yards and winery on

Highway 29, the Cakebreads continued to work at Jack s father s car repair busi­ness m Oakland, Calif Each Friday afternoon, the Cakebreads and their sons trekked to the Napa Valley to work on the winery project

As the vineyards were being planted, Dolores started her vegetable and flower garden, which led her to a separate

career m matching wme and food Although she has freely given her recipes to wme and food magazines and posted them on the winery’s Web site, publica­tion o f her first cookbook w ill be part o f the 30th year celebration

SOMETHING QUITE DIFFERENT

M ost wineries that produce both white and red wines make them in the same facility Bruce, one o f the Cakebread’s three sons, who has been the winemaker since 1978, convinced his parents that there was a higher road to quality Over the years, separate facilities were built to make white and red wmes

Dennis Cakebread, who manages sales

and marketing for the winery, pointed out the benefits "Because Bruce presses whole grape clusters for our white wmes," he said, "we’ve installed special and gentle large-capacity presses to reduce skin contact tim e All the equip­m ent used is engineered to reduce oxy­gen contact w ith the juice This creates overall fresher and fruitier w hite wm es "

’Workers m the ’white’ winery remain focused on w hite w m es Essentially, Cakebread is tw o sm all wineries Tins is only possible through separation ”

In the red wm e winery, it’s easier and more beneficial to manage the cap formed during ferm entation in short,

A perfect cup of coffee is more than just grinding beans

1 111 Xhuii.iO ld Vint'

) . (•ntitu/ii /Spanish Wint

(AP) - As the weather cools, a rich cup o f coffee can be just the thing to warm a chilly autumn day

Knspy Kreme, introducing a new line o f coffee to go along with its signature doughnuts, offers a few tips for making a perfect pot

The first mistake m ost peo­ple make is that they store coffee m the refrigerator or freezer, says D J McKie, sen­ior vice president and general

- "rem e

Coffee and Beverages “Coffee is porous," h e says

Therefore, if you store it in the refrigerator it may start to sm ell like whatever it is next to Also, in the freezer, beans or grounds can becom e freez­er burned, even if you don t see it Instead, McKie sug­gests storing coffee in an air­tight container or bag and keeping it away from light, perhaps m a pantry or cup­board

McKie says coffee tastes

best right after it has been ground Home brewers should therefore gnnd their coffee beans ju st before they are going to be used A burr grinder will gnnd even parti cles o f coffee, and is prefer­able to a chopper or blade gnnder

I f one buys fresh ground coffee, McKie suggests buying only enough to last a week

Investing m the nght kind o f coffee pot is worth it for the taste advantage, McKie says

Nine desserts later, and the pumpkin pie was perfect

There are few foods I could im agine eating everyday, but pum p­

In the and m as-

kitchen withcarpone, a hearty pum pkin

La n a pie w ithMini I fluffy

whitetopping

is just as satisfyingA couple autum ns ago,

on a strange quest to make the perfect pum pkin pie, I m ade pum pkin pie every evening for nearly tw o weeks, som etim es trying two different reap es sim ul­taneously The quest kept m e awake and active through the w ee hours

I becam e obsessed w ith sw eeteners, crusts and pum pkin filling textures My recipes cam e from friends, th e Internet and cooking shows

Each night, after a sliver size sam pling w as taken from each pie, I’d pass the rest to friends, co-workers and neighbors who were baffled by m y obsession but happy to try the goods Everyone shared com m ents such as too ligh t, too dense, too gntty

Two days before Thanksgiving, on the ninth attem pt, I m ade a pie that was sw eet, dense, n ch and sm ooth Everyone who sam pled it, loved it V ictory was m ine’

Ironically, the perfect pum pkin pie recipe cam e from one o f m y m ost-used cookbooks, “The C om passionate Cook by Ingnd Newkirk, (July 1993 Warner Books) I should’ve trusted that book from the start

This reap e w ith w hipped topping is quite easy It calls for an unbaked pie shell w hich m eant I had tim e to m ake tw o for Thanksgiving dessert The

tofu and syrup m ake it incredibly cream y You can­n ot overblend th is dessert - m ore is better Blend, blend and blend som e m ore1

pose flou r1 (16 o z) can pum pkin puree1 tablespoon ground cinna

mon1 tablespoon ground ginger1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 ( 9 inch) unbaked pie shell

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Blend all the mgre dients for the filling in a blender or food processor until smooth (A good rule Make certain its smooth as possible, blend tofu first until com pletely and thor­oughly sm ooth and creamy Then add the ingredients in order an blend m between adding each one)

Pour into unbaked pie shell Bake for 30 minutes at 4 0 0 degrees, turn oven down to 350 degrees and bake for another 30-45 m inutes, or until the filling is set

Serve warm or cold Gar­nish with tofu whipped cream

Tofu Whipped "C ream"

1 pound so ft tofu 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup soy milk

Combine tofu vanilla and sugar in a blender or a food processor and process until smooth - again, more is bet­ter W ith the machine run mng, gradually add the soy m ilk through the feeder cap Refrigerate until serving tim e It will keep for a week but can also be frozen

open top tanks with a large diameter

Tanks are used only once each vintage, which allows slower fer­mentation and extended macer­ation, which favorably impact both the flavor and structure of red wine Again, the workers in this winery are focused on red wines and do not need to split their work day between tending both red and whites

What are the wines like’Is the two winery concept

expensive’ Yes Worth it’That s for you to judge We think the following Cakebread Napa Valley wines prove the point o f excellence

1 2001 Sauvignon Blanc $23 is fresh and brimming with bright juicy fruit

1 2000 Chardonnay $38 expresses harmony between crisp, citrusyfruit and oak. Its perfectly balanced to accompany food, although you 11 like it as a

quaff on its own■ 1999 Reserve Chardonnay

$55 is a tantalizing interplay between citrus, baked apple and tropical fruit characters, topped off with hints o f brown spice and vanilla

■ 1999 Merlot $54 Only a very limited quantity o f this Pomerol-like wine w ill be avail­able, but a search w ill be rewarded

■ 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon $58 is a solid Bordeaux knockoff w ith dusty notes over blackberry and cassis flavors, spiked with anise-like spice

This and the m erlot are excep­tional wines Ifyourein to matching food and wine, reapes to match each o f these wines can be found on the Cakebread Cellars Web site www cake­bread com

like to give you more tips on fall photography as the air chills, the leaves begin to change and colors creep gently southward

Here’s a fall color checklist Best film to use I prefer slide

film I f you’ve never used it before, now’s the time to start Slides have a greater contrast range than color negative films and will produce more vivid, satu­rated colors For black and white lovers, fall colors provide an

excellent opportunity to obtain full tonal range prints No mat­ter what your choice o f films, use ones with low ASA num­bers You 11 get finer gram and your enlarge­ments w ill be sharp and cnsp

Best days to shoot Contrary to

what you may think, cloudy days are best Contrast and glare are reduced and colors will appear more vibrant And don’t pass up rainy or foggy days Moistened autumn leaves after a rain or foggy morning provide good pos­sibilities for your camera. Dark clouds formed by a receding storm also are an excellent back­drop for a stand o f brilliant trees If nature doesn’t cooperate, use a spray bottle o f water to dampen a grouping o f leaves

Use good composition Place your mam subject, off center for a more dynamic appearance m your shot “Frame” your pictures with overhanging branches and place foreground subjects in the viewfinder Use roads, fences and streams to your advantage as “lead-in” lines

Use a small aperture The smaller the aperture, the greater the depth-of-field meaning everything will appear sharp and in focus m your finished print

For those o f you with ‘program’ cameras, use an aperture priority mode with the smallest aperture on your lens For manual camera users, simply select an aperture/shutter speed combina­tion to maximize depth-of-field

Which lens to use Remember that wide-angle lenses w ill give a greater expanse to your shot while a telephoto will “move you m close” to isolate a particular tree or capture a splash o f color in a cluster o f fallen leaves A macro

lens or close-up filter will enable you to highlight the texture and details o f an individual leaf

Look for other opportunities Cider mills, football games, Halloween festivities and patches o f pumpkins all offer other excit­ing fall picture possibilities Keep your eyes open for these and more

See skydivers and shop on a day trip to TecumsehBY THREEOLBAGSCORRESPONDENTS

A w ise man once said, “Find something you are passionate about, then find a way to make money at it ” No, Oprah did not think o f it first This is one o f the secrets o f a happy life

Last week we traveled to Tecumseh, M ichigan, and m et a young man who is living his dream and earning a living while doing it Ron Polowski is the proud owner o f Skydive Tecumseh

Just a short eight years ago, he began sky diving here as a student In April he bought the company and just can’t quit sm iling about it He is one o f the brave hearts who followed his dream and found his pot o f gold at the end o f the rainbow

Located just 25 miles south­west o f Ann Arbor, it is a nice ride in the country to reach the Al Meyers Airport on the Tecumseh-Clinton Highway

Skydive Tecumseh was at the end of a dirt road that wound its way around the few airport buildings on the property We parked our car m the packed lot and noticed heads turned upward So, o f course we looked too The clear blue sky was dotted w ith skydivers attached to brilliantly colored parachutes We found it m es­merizing to watch them float through the sky, some twirling, others gliding softly to earth All o f them m ade a loud swooshing sound, as they came in with their parachutes flap­ping m the w ind What excite­m ent1

Polowski was eager to show us his four Cessna planes and the newest acquisition, a leased Tivm Otter that seats twenty- four passengers

The airport was bustling with activity and we enjoyed inter­viewing two first-tim e jumpers, a brother and sister combo, Brad and Thsha Bogedam from Monroe, M ichigan

They were a ll geared up and ready to board-th^-plane and do a tandeih jhmpr With one o f the instructors Tnsh admitted, Okay, now I ve got butterflies

in my stom ach* Brad was pumped and raring to go

ThreeOlBags were glad to be staying on the ground to observe this one*

The Tvin Otter goes up to13,500 feet and lets out the sky- divers one at a tim e Freefall lasts about 50 seconds and the tandem jumpers open their chutes at 5000 feet Floating

downward is awesome w ith a spectacular view

We m et Brad and Tnsh as they touched ground “Awesome* The adrenal rush can’t be beat* I’d definitely to do it again,” said Brad “The scanest part is w hen the door on the airplane opens and you feel the rush o f air coming at you,” said Tnsh “But, it was a lot o f fun’”

We had a hard tim e pulling ourselves away from all the excitem ent, but we still had to explore Tecumseh, so we drove the few m iles to town

ThreeOlBags had heard about The B ntish Pantry & Tea Garden Cafe so w e decided to eat lunch here The Tea Garden Cafe serves authentic English foods, like scones and crumpets, and Cottage Pie Be sure to have their house salad,

One o f Tecumseh’s m ost endearing qualities is the h is­torical Southern M ichigan Railroad, which goes right through the m iddle o f town

The railroad once brought set­tlers to southeast M ichigan, but is now dedicated to tours Currently, reservations are being taken for the railroad’s Fall Color Tours The train leaves Tecumseh for a two hour round tn p through Southeast M ichigan’s colorfiil landscape, stopping for cider and dough­nuts midway

Rocks' running game buries WayneB Y C J RISAKSTAFF WRITER

Complication was not part o f the game plan Salem had one ‘trick’ play, passing on the first play of

the game for a 25-yard gain The Rocks attempted just two more passes — they never needed to They simply resorted to fullback up the middle, fullback off-tackle, quarterback up the middle, quarterback off-tackle

And it worked Salem had 57 plays to 44 for Wayne Memorial, four of those ended in the end zone, leading the Rocks to a 29-7 victory m a Western Lakes Activities

Association football game played at Salem The Rocks improved to 2-5 overall, 2-4 m the confer­

Salem coach Bob Cummings, referring to tnple-option W e felt we could run that offense They run to the ball hard (on defense), so we just stayed with it ”

It wasn t a perfect gam e for the Rocks, but it was pretty close They drove deep into Zebra territory on their first two possessions — to their 27 on their first senes, to their 16 on their second — and came up empty, failing to con­vert on a pair o f fourth downs

Canton claims regionBY CHAD MACKSTAFF WRITER

In somewhat o f a stunning upset, Canton’s boys golf team captured first place in the MHSAA Division 1 Regional Tournament Friday at Oak Pointe Golf Club in Brighton

The Chiefs derailed Redford Catholic Central, Northville and host Brighton, all of whom were expected to compete for the regional crown

“We felt we had as good a shot as anybody,” Canton coach Tom Alles said “We knew who the competition was We knew that it would take our best effort, and we gave it ”

Canton edged out CC, 307 to 309, while South Lyon shot 317 to earn the regional’s third spot at the Division 1 state champi­onship, beginning next Friday at The Emerald in St Johns

“Canton really shot well,’ CC coach Bill

Hayes said “Maybe we expected a little more of our bottom three guys, but we qualified for states and anything can happen”

Northville and Brighton both shot 322, but Northville finished fourth on the tie-breaker Howell came in sixth with 323, followed by Livonia Stevenson (326), Livonia Churchill (334), Salem (334), Pinckney (338), Dearborn (354), Livonia Franklin (354), Garden City (373), Dearborn Edsel Ford (385) and Westland John Glenn (394) Dearborn Fordson did not field four golfers to earn a team score

WLAA TENNIS RESULTS

BY BRAD EMONSSTAFF WRITER

Enn Mazzom has pitched a perfect game so far during the 2002 high school girls tennis season

The senior from Livonia Stevenson has faced 27 oppo­nents and all 27 have gone down in straight sets with the exception o f one, Amy Grant of Port Huron Northern, m last weekend’s Ann Arbor Pioneer Invitational (4-6, 6 -0 ,6-1)

Mazzom, a state semifinahst a year ago, won two more titles last week, bringing her total to six including four mvitationals, this fall

On Tuesday, she rolled to another Western Lakes Activities Association title with a 6-1, 6-0 win over M ichelle Maxfield o f Walled Lake Central

On Friday, Mazzom repeated as Division regional champion with a 6-1, 6-1 triumph over Jennifer Jam o f Pioneer

Both the regional and WLAA meets were hosted by Stevenson

It’s a automatic bet Mazzom will be among the top four seeds in Division I state meet, which starts Friday at the Midland Community Tennis Center

“I really hope to get to the finals,” Mazzom said ‘That’s been my-goal the past four years, but I just want to play my best up there ”

Mazzom stayed away from USTA Junior events this sum­mer, but continued to tram at Western G olf & Country Club

Erin Mazzoni, a state semifi­nalist a year ago, won two more titles last week.

and at Square Lake Racquet Club

She did com pete, however, for the Southeastern M ichigan Tennis Association’s W ightman Cup squad in a team tourna­ment held last June at Ball State (Ind) University

‘I really enjoy the team aspect,” M azzoni said “I thm k I’m much more confident this year in my serve, especially my second serve

Jain tried to h it to Mazzom’s backhand, but couldn’t come up with enough penetrating shots to press the Stevenson senior

‘I just played her (Jam) in the Pioneer tourney, I kind o f knew it was coming,” Mazzom said

Mazzoni, who carries a 4 0 grade-point average, is consid­ering several schools including Kalamazoo College, M ichigan, M ichigan State, Notre Dame and the University o f Detroit Mercy

I ’d like to stay close to hom e and go to a school with high academic standards,” M azzoni said “I want the best o f both worlds, but anywhere I go, I’ll try and walk on It’s (tennis)

been too b ig a part o f my life to stop”

Mazzom’s heir apparent at No 1 singles for next year is sophomore team m ate Ashley Moccia, who captured the No 2 singles title in the WLAA finals with a 6-1, 6-0 victory over Kristen Tomasic o f Livonia Churchill

Moccia, 24-3 on the year, also reached the finals at N o 2 sin­gles at the regional before los­ing to Hannah Levine o f Ann Arbor Pioneer in a match decided in a third-set tiebreak­er, 6 -4 ,0-6 , 7-6 (7-5)

Top-ranked Ann Arbor Pioneer captured the regional with a team -high 25 points, while Northville, the WLAA champion, and Ann Arbor Huron, both scored 17 to quali­

fyPlymouth Salem and Saline

Northville captured three o f four doubles titles

But Stevenson’s Jen Jensen and Kristen W eiser took the No 2 doubles crown with a 6-3,6-1 triumph over Sandra Snabb and Tiffany McCann of Churchill

Ocelots stop Kellogg CCBY C .J R1SAKSTAFF WRITER

Nothing happened Which was a godsend

A month earlier, a men’s soc­cer match between Schoolcraft College and Kellogg CC m Battle Creek erupted into an ugly free-for-all, the repercus­sions o f which are still being felt SC s Ryan Mallard was arrested before the game ended and charged w ith assault, those charges are still pending and Mallard is still suspended from play (not from school)

Some say the entire issue has been blown w ell beyond pro­portion Others insist Mallard, accused o f stom ping on a Kellogg player’s face, should never be allowed to play again

So was Wednesday’s m eeting, th is tim e at SC, a matter o f bad tim ing’ Apparently not — the Ocelots, taken to overtime m the first m eeting (they eventu­ally won), had no problems this tim e, dom inating from the start and eventually posting a 4-0 triumph

The victory improved SC’s record to 10-2 overall

After the O celots scored late

8 COLLEGE SOCCER 1

in the opening half, David Comito’s shot deflecting and going through th e Kellogg keeper (W alter W atts assisted), to give SC a 2-0 lead, the out­com e was never in doubt SC literally toyed w ith Kellogg, using the second h a lf to prac­tice different defensive tech­niques that may com e m handy down the road

As far as K ellogg was con­cerned, there w as little offense for the Ocelots to worry about Indeed, SC coach Dommic Scicluna pulled starting keeper Eric Sicilia (from Livonia Churchill) in the final 10 m in­utes

“The only th ing I was con­cerned about was their getting ‘intense’ and how w e would handle it,” said Scicluna, refer­ring to the possibility o f anoth­er overly physical con test But that never happened

“They were a class act today,” he added

The Ocelots first goal came from Ryan M ontague, on a set­up from Tony Ventura. Comito’s goal made it 2-0 at half

In the second half, SC con­centrated on applying pressure — constantly W ith 18 49 left in the gam e, it resulted m a break for M ontague and his second goal o f the m atch Salvador Djeukeng assisted

Zoran Goljic — usually a key defender for the O celots, but pushed up by Scicluna ("I want all o f my players to be able to play more than one position,” Scicluna explained) — got the final marker, finishing a loose ball from in front o f the net

The second h a lf was, basical­ly, a half-court gam e SC was too fast, too quick — which is what Scicluna wanted to test “I wanted them to work on their high pressure, to treat Kellogg as if it w as the N o 1 team m the country,” he explained

And that’s ju st was the O celots did, or as Scicluna described it, “We play as intense as the sun burns bright”

Then h e added, “But we don’t play dirty”

N either side did, this tim e around

Salem pace just strong enough to winB Y C J R IS AKSTAFF WRITER

For the Salem boys cross country team , the W estern Lakes Activities Association Division Jamboree Thursday at W illow MetroPark wasn’t a race A t least that’s what the Rocks’ coach, G eoff Baker, told them

That sn o t the race today, he said “The way we ran, we stayed with our pack and ran our pace We didn’t race, we just ran our pace

That strategy nearly cost Salem a first-place finish A strong surge by Livonia

s CROSSCOUNTRY

Stevenson made the Lakes D ivision race close, but the Rocks hung on to edge Stevenson by a single point

Salem scored 35 to Stevenson s 36 W alled Lake Central was third (58), with W estland John Glenn fourth (121), Walled Lake Northern fifth (155) and Wayne M emorial sixth (162)

In the Western Division boys race, W alled Lake W estern was first w ith 39 points, followed by Northville (43), Livonia Churchill (68), Canton (85),

Livonia Franklin (137) and Plymouth (no team score)

Salem’s Justin Hajduk had the fastest tim e o f the day, win­ning the Lakes’ race m 16 31 Stevensons Matt Gillespie was second (16 41), followed by Spartan teammates Sean O Halloran (fifth 16 55) Doug Novak (seventh, 17 09) and Matt Hays (10th 17 20)Salem s Randy Bearden was sixth (16 59), with Chris Vramak eighth (17 13) and Jim Leddy ninth (17 16)

In the Western Division, Neal Naughton o f W estern was first (16 36) Jon W estern o f Canton placed fourth (16 54),

Churchill s Kevin Kane was fifth (17 02) and Connor Schultz placed 10th (17 21) Cantons Steve Cheek was sixth (17 03)

‘ In the last m ile, we didn t have the response we wanted them to have,” said Baker I’ll take the blame for this one, but we have a much tougher race next Friday

‘Now we get to the nitty gnt ty From now on, I m just going to let them race

ROCKSFROM PAGE Clincluding four penalties, one of them a personal foul/roughing the passer call against Wayne on a third-down-and-8 play — the Rocks were in the end zone again, Kerul scoring with 26 left m the half on a 5-yard burst up the middle

For one senes o f the second half anyway, it seemed the Zebras would make a game o f it On their first official play from scnmmage fullback lyrell Ford sliced around nght end and out- sped the Salem defenders into the end zone, the play covering 60 yards to make it 14-7

They’ve got a lot o f speed,” said Cummings o f Wayne Our biggest goal was to keep the flanks covered, keep everything at home And except for that one play, we did

The Rocks answered immedi­ately, taking nine plays to cover 70 yards — 3 3 of them coming on a second-and 16 sweep around right end by Lewis to the Wayne 2 Drabicki scored on the next play, making it 20-7

Turnovers ended the next two drives, Salem’s John Dellapelle intercepting a Wayne screen pass and then the Zebras J R Fells recovering a Rock fumble at the Wayne 27 When the Rocks regained possession, they drove from their 41 to the Wayne 5, where they failed to convert on fourth down for the third time in the game

The Zebras could do nothing with the ball, however, and on fourth down from their own 4 punter Henry Love inadvertent­ly stepped out o f the end zone, giving Salem a safety and a 22-7 lead The Rocks got possession on the free kick at the Wayne 47 and, with Kerul doing nearly all

the work, went the distance for the TD, Kerul sconng it on a burst up the middle from a yard out The junior fullback finished with 164 rushing yards on 24 attempts, scoring twice Drabicki had 160 rushing yards (117 o f those m the first half) on 22 tries, with one TD, and Lewis gained 37 yards on five carnes with one score All told, Salem had 367 rushing hards, Drabicki was l-of-3 passing for 25 yards Wayne was paced by Ford, who gamed 101 yards on seven attempts, sconng the Zebras only TD T J Dillard added 65 rushing yards on 14 carnes and 'iyrell Walker rushed for 27 yards on three tnes Quarterback Brad W ilson was 3 -o f-ll passing for 40 yards, with one intercept

■ Virtual techniqueTroy Internal Medicine

PC now offers virtual colonoscopy an alternative to traditional colonoscopy for senior citizens with cer tain health conditions

Virtual colonoscopy is a newer minimally invasive technique for detecting polyps and cancer in the colon using a CT scan and specialized software As with a traditional colonoscopy virtual colonoscopy requires a one day preparation However unlike traditional colonoscopy patients hav mg virtual colonoscopy do not need to discontinue aspirin non steroid anti inflammatory medications or the blood thinner Coumadin prior to the test

Also important to seniors and other patients is that virtual colonoscopy does not risk perforation of the colon wall Because the colon is examined using a CT scan and virtual reality computer software there is no need to insert the trad: tionalcolonoscope along tube into the rectum and colon

Additionally patients may not need a driver because there is no sedation and they are fully functional after the exam C02 (carbon dioxide) which is used in insufflate the colon for vir tual colonoscopy is rapidly absorbed so the discomfort level is minimal to non exis tent Further the test takes only three minutes to per form

Many seniors find it hard to tolerate long periods of discomfort during medical tests especially if they are frail said Dr James Henderson medical director

Virtual colonoscopy really eliminates the majority of perceived negatives associ ated with a colonoscopy

HRT has benefits, say doctors, but there are alternatives

BY HEATHER NEEDHAMSTAFF WRITER

As part o f Breast Cancer Awareness M onth, local health care providers are encouraging wom en to do two things - make sure to get mammograms if they’re 40 and older, and explore their hormone replacement therapy options if they are approaching or experienc­ing menopause

A recent W om ens Health Initiative study showed a possible link between breast cancer and hormone replace­m ent therapy (HRT) The study, how­ever, has been criticized by local physi­cians who maintain that the horm one therapy is still a good way to prevent osteoporosis and m aintain quality o f life

The five-year study involved 16,000 women using estrogen and progestin combination HRT The therapy has been widely used as a way to prevent coronary heart disease in post­menopausal women The study was to have ended in 2005 but was stopped at the end o f May because o f the risk for invasive breast cancer, as w ell as cardiac events and strokes

The findings reported a 26 percent increase m invasive breast cancer over the placebo group (38 vs 30 per 10,000 person/years), but the absolute risk was just eight more incidents o f invasive cancer

The study involved women using Prempro, an oral HRT preparation manufactured by Wyeth Ayerst, which combines 0 625 mg o f estrogen extracted from mare’s urine and prog estin, in the form of 2 5 mg of medoroxyprogesterone acetate

Some patients are at particular risk from HRT side effects W omen with vaginal bleeding o f unknown cause,

Dr Kavita Rao, of Oakwood Com plem entary and Alte rn ative Medicine Center, talks with a patient about natural alternatives to hormone replacement therapy

chronic disease o f the liver, a family h is­tory o f breast or uterine cancer or blood clots in the veins, legs, or lungs risk negative HRT side effects, according to the Web site, hormone-replacement- therapy-side-effects com

As for the recent study, Bingham Farms-based Dr Jerry Nosanchuk said that wom en have been unduly scared away from using HRT He has consid­ered him self a “menopausahst” smce 1984 and is a founding member o f the North American M enopause Society

GETTING UNDER THE SK IN

Nosanchuk endorses a transdermal, rather than oral, approach to HRT Transdermal HRT is administered through a skin patch sim ilar to a nico­tin e patch, and is considered superior to ingesting pills, though the pills are more popular, Nosanchuk said

“The m ost optimal horm one replace­m ent therapy is never oral estrogen,” he

said “It doesn’t mean oral estrogen is terrible - it’s just not optim al ”

“BioidenticaF alternatives, such as soy-denved HRT, are superior to the oral HRT products, including Prempro, which use fem ale horse excretions, Nosanchuk said

Oral HRT, but not transderdmal HRT, raises the level o f C-Reactive Protein, which is closely related to car­diac events Other negative effects o f oral HRT are increased insulin resist­ance and raised levels o f sex horm one- bindm g globulin, which binds to a woman’s natural levels o f testosterone

This hormonal condition generates the m ost complaints among his patients, a majority o f whom started on oral HRT then switched to transderm al HRT That is because the symptoms are decreased sex drive, decreased energy, reduced muscle m ass, weight gain and a “pot belly”

PLEASE SEE HRT, C9

FACTS ABOUT BREAST CANCER■ One in eight women will develop breast cancer dur­ing her lifetime■ Mammograms can detect cancer up to two years before a lump can be felt■ If all women 50 and over had mammograms dt the recommended intervals, the mortality rate would be reduced by 30 percent - 13000 American lives would be saved per year■ Eighty percent of women who develop breast cancer have no family his­tory of the disease■ An estimated 185700 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed m the United States during 1996 making it the most fre­quently diagnosed cancer among women■ Breast cancer is cur­rently the second leading cause of cancer death in women with an estimated 44 560 women losing their lives to this disease during 1995-o n e woman every 12 minutes■ More than 90 percent of women whose breast can­cer is found and treated early with no spreading beyond the breast, will sur­vive

Cryosurgery: a new weapon against breast cancerWomen may soon have a new weapon to

use in the fight against breast cancer It’s minimally invasive and does not cause per manent disfigurement as with other proce­dures like a mastectomy, where the breast is entirely removed, or a lumpectomy, m which the cancer is removed from the breast and radiation therapy is often need­ed

This potentially new treatment, called cryosurgery, is currently bemg studied by the University o f Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center Researchers are investigat­ing the possibility that m addition to destroying the tumor, cryosurgery may stimulate the immune system to attack any remaining cancer cells, providing a better chance for survival for the approximately 200,000 women diagnosed with breast cancer this year alone

Cryosurgery involves making a very small incision m d ie skin. Using an ultra­sound, a probe is placed in the center o f the tumor to freeze and kill the cancer cells, says Dr Michael Sabel, a surgical oncologist at the U-M Comprehensive

Cancer Center‘ The tip o f the probe gets extremely cold

and essentially forms an iceball around the tumor,” he explains ‘That, in effect, kills all of the cancer cells, which allows the body to reabsorb the tissue so there’s not a large defect m the breast”

USES IMMUNE SYSTEM

In contrast to other techniques used to treat breast cancer, cryosurgery leaves the shell o f the cancer cells intact This allows the immune system to dean up the area, exposing the tumor proteins to the white blood cells

And by exposing the immune system to the tumor, it may help prevent cancer from returning or spreading to other parts of die body - a common occurrence m breast cancer patients who are diagnosed after die cancer has already spread to d ie lymph nodes or beyond

“I’m hoping that by freezing die tumor, die immune system will learn to recognize cancer and go out and destroy cancer m

other parts of d ie body, the same way it looks for bacteria or viruses with certain proteins,” says Sabel

Cryosurgery is also used to destroy abnormal cervical cells and correct prob­lem s with inflammation or chronic dis­charge In addition, cryosurgery has been used to treat tumors m the liver and benign lesions in the breast

TRIAL UNDER WAY

However, the effectiveness of cryosurgery as a treatment for breast can­cer is still bemg investigated by die U-M Comprehensive Cancer Center Currendy, a trial is under way at the Center with women who are in the early stages o f breast cancer

In the trial, participants undergo cryosurgery followed by the procedure they would have otherwise had - either a lumpectomy or mastectomy - three weeks later Using this process, researchers are able to find out if the cancer has been destroyed and if die immune system has

been stimulated‘I believe cryosurgery will be very useful

m the future for treatment in the early stages o f breast cancer,” Sabel says

Enhanced milk offerings improve student lunch

PRNewswire - In the face o f escalating rates o f childhood obesity and heightened public concern about the nutrient quality o f foods m schools, a recent school study shows that students’ m ilk consum ption and nutrition status can be significantly improved by enhanced m ilk offerings m schools

In a yearlong study co-spon­sored by the Am erican School Food Service A ssociation and National Dairy Council involving m ore than 100 ,000 students in 146 schools, m ilk sales increased 22 percent m secondary test schools and 15 percent m elem entary test schools after enhancem ents in m ilk packaging and m erchan­dising) flavors, varieties and tem perature w ere made These num bers are significant from a national public health perspective, given that only 12 and 30 percent o f fem ale and male teens, respectively, con­sume the recom m ended daily servings o f dairy foods

‘ Based on research, we know that on average, only those children who choose m ilk during the noontim e meal com e close to m eeting their recom m ended calcium intake,” says Dr Rachel Johnson, professor of N utrition and acting dean o f the College o f A gnculture and Life Sciences at the University o f Vermont ‘W ith the sharp rise m consum ption o f soft drinks and other beverages at the expense o f m ilk, children may be at greater risk for bone fractures, as w ell as hyperten­sion and osteoporosis later m l ife”

Prior to the study, 40 per­cent o f children reported they

disliked the traditional m ilk carton offered m schools That num ber w as cut m h alf w ith the introduction o f a new plastic package, new flavors and the handling improve m ents that ensured a more consistent and colder tem per ature for the m ilk In addi­tion , more students reported choosing m ilk at lunch, and m ilk plate w aste measure m ents show ed that m both eight and 10 ounce packaging children drank more o f the m ilk they took

In the student survey 51 percent o f respondents m 4th through 12th grade identify flavored m ilk as th e type o f m ilk m ost often drank at school lunch This represents a 10 percent increase over pre­p ilot survey m easures

For kids, Halloween means sugary, gooey candy, collected by the bagftil and just waiting to be gobbled down Forget healthy eating, it's tnck-or-treat tim e1

Not quite, says a University o f Michigan Health System chil­dren’s nutrition expert In fact, she adds, Halloween is the per­fect time o f year for parents to teach kids about healthy eating And 1he lessons they learn now can help them eat better throughout d ie year - which can help keep diem from becoming overweight or obese

“Kids should enjoy their holi­day treats They need to be chil­dren and have fun activities m their lives, ’ says pediatric dieti­tian Michelle Cleland, R.D, who counsels kids and their families at the UMHS East Ann Arbor Health Center “But parents should provide guidelines to hav­ing fun foods, such as ‘This is a special occasion, you can have this many treats tonight,’ and then providing a treat or two m their school lunches or after school”

Setting rules ahead o f Halloween about how much candy children can eat each day, and providing healthy meals before they head out for tnck-or- treatmg and m the days after­ward, are important tips for par­

ents to follow, says ClelandShe also recommends that

parents set a lim it on how long kids can keep their Halloween loot

“M y rule o f thumb about keep­ing candy would be to the next holiday, such as Thanksgiving,” she says “That’s a good four- week period that gives them time to enjoy candy and spread it out evenly throughout that time ” Leftovers can then either be dis­carded, frozen for another time, or donated to a chanty

A ll in all, she adds, “One day out o f the year won’t be detri­mental to a child’s <het, but if it keeps occurring and guidelines aren’t set, it can lead to child­hood obesity”

OBESITY

In the past few years, there’s been a rapid increase m the number o f overweight and obese kids and teens m the United States That number has nearly tnpled m just over a generation In fact, a recent report by the U S

Surgeon General noted that 13 percent o f children aged sjx to 11 years and 14 percent o f adoles­cents aged 12 to 19 years are overweight

ing childhood and adolescence can lead to health problems now, such as diabetes and sleep prob­lems, and later, such as heart dis­ease, high blood pressure, stroke, jom t problems and som e forms of cancer African American, Hispanic American and Native American children and teens have particularly high rates of obesity

Obesity can also be a major social stigma for children and teens, when their peers tease them for being “fat ’ or they feel self-consaous And overweight kids tend to become overweight adults, making obesity a lifelong chronic condition that-can great­ly reduce overall health

But parents can help their children avoid the health and social problems that can come with being overweight, Cleland says

“Children tend to be obese because of a combination o f both lifestyle and food choices,” she notes “Most o f the studies to date have shown it’s high-calone beverages, processed foods, and sitting still and not partiapating m sports or other physical activi­ties”

SEEKING HELP

If you need help developing better habits for yourself and your children, ask your child’s doctor about making an appointment with a nutritionist - preferably one with experience with kids

But parents can do a lot on their own, says Cleland Look at your child’s diet over the course o f a week, rather than focusing on making every meal and snack perfectly healthy It’s all right to have candy once in a while, m small quantities, as long as the rest o f the week they eat mostly lower-fat, lower-calone choices

‘One bad meal is not a big deal and it’s part o f being a child,’ says Cleland “So if they balance out the rest o f the week and

make sure they’re getting their servings o f fruits, vegetables and dairy products along the way, occasional sweets aren’t going to upset their d iet”

The same goes for exercise and physical activity For example, parents can set lim its on how long kids can be sedentary - sit­ting in front o f the television, video games or computer, for example And for every half hour o f TV they watch or games they play, Cleland recommends par­ents plan a half hour o f physical activity, such as a fam ily walk.

SETTING PATTERNS

Just as with food, a parent can set an example w ith exerase and activity Children will follow the pattern their parents establish

“Exercise doesn’t have to be the treadmill three days a week for 45 minutes,” Cleland advises “There are all sorts o f different fun activities to add to your lifestyle, such as partiapating m different courses m the commu­nity” And, o f course, walking through the neighborhood or the mall for tnck-or-treatmg

Even while parents try to make healthy eating and physi­cal activity a routine part o f their children’s lives, Cleland cautions that a child’s weight should not becom e the focus when parents talk to them

Too much attention to weight alone, rather than diet and exer­a se habits, can set children and teens up for eating disorders And children’s weight vanes in relation to their height through­out their school years, as their body grows and develops

“I f a child is going through a penod where he or she is a little bit heavier, don’t focus on that,” says Cleland “Instead, focus on good healthy eating habits and being physically active Let’s help them m dse healthier choices”

And that’s good advice at Halloween and throughout the year

Monthly breast self-exams help detect lumpsBreast self-exam is still a

good ideaWhy?The American Cancer Society

recommends that all women over the age o f 20 examine their breasts once a month By exam ining your breasts regu­larly, you w ill know how your breasts normally feel If a change should happen m your breasts, you w ill be able to identity it and let your doctor know

M ost lum ps are found by women them selves If you find any lumps, thickenings or changes, tell your doctor right away Remember, most breast lumps are not cancerous, but you don't know if you don’t ask Breast cancer may be success­fully treated if you find it and treat it early Delaying the diag­nosis o f breast cancer does not change the diagnosis, it only worsens the outcome

When?You should do a Breast Self-

Exam (BSE) every month two or three days after your period If you do not have regular peri­ods, just do it the same day every m onth (Note just before your period or during pregnan­cy, your breasts may be som e­what lum py or more tender) If

HERBAL ALTERNATIVES

Dr Kavita Rao, who practices both internal medicine and com­plementary medicine through Westland’s Oakvvood Health System, said that concern about side effects is the mam reason some o f her patients look to herbalism Rao’s menopausal patients use herbs such as blade cohosh, which can relieve hot flashes, and sage, which can reduce excess perspiration They also use herbal creams, pur­chased in vitamin stores

“Natural medicine, if used appropriately, is much safer,”Rao said “Unfortunately, m the United States, (herbal medicine is) not as regulated as it is in Europe”

Germany, m particular, is one country where herbal medicine is widely used and prescribed, Rao said

As with conventional medi­cine, however, dosage is impor­tant with herbs Long-term use of some herbs is not recom­mended, and Rao recommends tapering off their use in treating menopause within a few months

She does not steer patients away from HRT, however

“Hormone replacement thera­py is not all bad,” Rao said “For the right patient, if it is used cor­rectly, it can be a good thing ”

INDIVIDUAL APPROACH

Dr Luana Kyselka, a Beaumont Hospital reproductive endocrinologist working m Troy and Royal Oak, agreed with Nosanchuk and Rao about the importance o f tailoring treat­ments to the woman, as well as taking the tim e to consult with •diem

“(Treatment) should be indi­vidualized,” she said “It should be carefully explained to them.”

Some women may do OK with oral HRT, but others may not The oral preparation distributes die hormones m one lump sum via the stomach, which may not be a good thing for women with a quick metabolism For them, the transdermal patch m aybe more effective because it delivers die hormones m a slow, steady tnckle, Kyselka said

“If a women has liver disease, die (oral HRT) maybe too taxing on d ie liver,” she said.

Healthy lifestyle choices are extremely important Menopausal women should not smoke, lim it alcohol and caffeine intake, exerase at least every other day, maintain a normal body weight and alleviate stress

Dietary choices are also important Kyselka said that spy- based foods - including tofu, soy milk and soy cheese - are thought to be especially good for menopausal women Soybeans contain phytoestrogen, which is enough like estrogen to stim u­late estrogen receptors in the body It is also calaum -nch and contains no cholesterol

Vitamin supplements, espe­cially those containing extra Vitamin E, Vitamin C and sele­nium, are a good idea.

“One thing for sure is that the best way to age gracefully is to exercise good eating habits,” said Kyselka.

you are taking hormones, talk with your doctor about when to do BSE

How?1 Lie down Flatten your

right breast by placing a pillow under your right shoulder Place your right arm behind your head

2 Use the sensitive finger pads (where your fingerprints are, not the tips) o f the m iddle three fingers on your left hand Feel for lum ps using a circular, rubbing m otion m small, dim e­sized circles w ithout lifting the fingers Powder, oil or lotion can be applied to the breast to

make it easier for the fingers to glide over the surface and feel changes

3 Press firm ly enough to feel different breast tissues, using three different pressures First, light pressure to just move the skin w ithout jostling the tissue beneath, then medium pressure pressing midway into the tis­sue, and finally deep pressure to probe more deeply down to the nbs or to the point just short o f discomfort

4 Completely feel all o f the breast and chest area up under your armpit, and up to the col­larbone and all the way over to

your shoulder to cover breast tissue that extends toward the shoulder

5 U se the sam e pattern to feel every part o f the breast tis­sue Choose the m ethod easiest for you

■ Lines Start in the under­arm area and move your fingers downward little by little until they are below the breast Then move your fingers slightly toward the m iddle, Mid slowly move back up Go up and down until you cover the wholearea

■ Circles Beginning at the outer edge o f your breast, move

your fingers slowly around the breast in a circle Move around the breast m smaller and sm all­er circles, gradually working toward the nipple Don’t forget to check theunderarm and upper chest areas, too

■ W edges Starting at the outer edge o f the breast, move your fingers toward the nipple and back to the edge Check your whole breast, covering one small wedge-shaped section at a tim e Be sure to check the underarm area and the upper chest

6 After you have com pletely

examined your right breast, then exam ine your left breast using the sam e method and your nght hand, with a pillow under your left shoulder

7 You m ay want to examine your breasts or do an extra exam w hile showermg It’s easy to slide soapy hands over your skm, and to feel anything unusual

8 You should also check your breasts in a mirror looking for any change in size or contour, dim pling o f the skm or sponta­neous nipple discharge

DEQUERVAIN’S DISEASEThis condition is one that likely you have not heard of

Dequervain s tenosynovitis is a tendinitis of the thumb I present its proper name to give credit to the person who first described it He was Henri Dequervain a Frenchman and he made his observation in 1855 Exam inee since that time shows his conclusions remain valid

In Dequervams tenosynovitis you feel pain throughout the thumb The discomfortbeglns at the base of the joint and radiates to the forearm However over time the whole digit hurts Trying to hold objects can become an agony you see a doctor because Ih e impairment can stop you from even caring for yourself

What has happened Is that one or both muscles that help move your thumb out and over have become strained The usual cause is injury either by a blow or from the repetitive strain of grasping objects that puts strain on the thumb such a s would occur by repeatedly exerting pressure on a wrench

Your doctor can differentiate Dequervams from arthritis of the thumb by having you place your thumb in the palm of the hand and then giving your wrist a forceful twist It that maneuver hurts you then you have tendinitis not arthritis

Initial treatment consists of resting the hand and staying away from any work or recreation effort that strains the thumb Injection of steroid into the thumb tendons involved Is useful though getting the medicine in the right place is difficult In extreme cases hand surgery can repair die injury

Thomas ErvinLot's Talk About Real Estate

“THE BOLES OF AN AGENT”If you think it is easy to sell your home without

the services of an agent, here is a partial list of the m any v ita l services th a t a real esta te agent provides1. Determination of valueThe value of real estate is constantly changing This happens because of the construction of new homes, the number of resales available a t any one time, mortgage in terest rates, the local economy, the w eather and the tim e of year Only a Realtor w ith access to m ultiple listing information can really knoiv the current m arket value of a property a t any given time2. Access to buyersReal estate agents carry an inventory of potential buyers who they have m et and whose housing needs they know W hen a house comes on the market, agents compare the features of a new listing w ith the features desired by their buyers If th e re is a match, th e home receives showings quickly from m otivated buyers who have been waiting for the ngh t house to come along3. Marketing toolsR eal e s ta te firm s have developed num erous m arketing tools th a t can attract buyers to a specific listing These include m ultiple listing services, com pany reputation , la rg e an d co n sis ten t newspaper ads, referral organizations, relocation departments, direct mail, websites on the Internet and m otivated salespeople paid on s tra igh t commission4. Third party intermediaryBecause of the emotions involved by both buyer and seller, a real e s ta te tran sac tio n is best accomplished w ith the help of a knowledgeable th ird p a rty T hat person is a R ealtor who understands the motives of each party and who has done this many times m the past

HOMEARAMA Onon 2002, a single­site showcase of half a dozen stunning custom homes by six different builders m the Tumberry Subdivision at Indianwood Golf & Country Club, Onon Township

The Building Industry Association of Southeastern Michigan presents the “open house” Thursday, Oct 17, through Sunday, Nov 3, and lines are expected weekends

Tumberry Subdivision is off Indianwood Road between Joslyn and Baldwin roads

“The homes incorporate the latest

features in style, living convenience and home construction,” said Dan MacLeish, BIA president and a Troy custom builder

MacLeish has referred to HOME­ARAMA as the builders’ equivalent to the auto show

The six homes range in size from 4,250 to 7,950 square feet and in price from $600,000 to $13 million All contain finished lower levels

The participants include ■ Alan Bishop & Associates,

Birmingham The two story showcases 7,950 square feet of living space with four bedrooms, five full baths and a

■ MacLeish Building, Troy The story-and-a-half of 7,350 square feet includes four bedrooms, four full baths and a pair of half baths

■ Lederman Custom Home Crafters, Sterling Heights Also a two story, the home contains four beds,

four full baths and a two half baths over 5,800 square feet

■ Randy M DePrez Custom Builder, Washington Township The story-and-a-half of 5,150 square feet has four bedrooms and five baths

All have outstanding custom fea­tures

MacLeish advises enthusiastic homeowners, prospective homeown­ers or folks just looking for good ideas to come early and wear good walking shoes to tour the homes

Showgoers may photograph the new ideas, treatment of colors, wall and window coverings, light fixtures,

kitchen arrangements, baths, decks, landscaping and other features while browsing

Show hours are 2-9 p m Monday- Fnday, 10 a m to 9 p m Saturday, and 10 a m to 6 p m Sunday Admission is $7, children 12 and under, free Discount coupons are available at Standard Federal bank offices

Simple steps lead to fireplace safety Designs target(WMS) - Before lighting the first fire

this fall, the Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association (HPBA) recommends that people follow a few simple fireplace safe­ty steps

“Prevention is the name of the game when it comes to fire safety,” said Carter Keithley, president and CEO of HPBA “It’s easy to stay safe and use fireplaces properly”

The HPBA recommends the following fireplace prep tips

■ Make sure chimneys and vents are clear of creosote buildup or obstructions

■ Clean out ashes from previous fires■ Add a fire screen in front of the fire­

place to protect against sparks■ Open the damper■ Make sure the area around the fire­

place is clear of furniture, books, news­papers or other potentially flammable materials

■ Check the batteries in smoke and carbon monoxide detectors to ensure proper operation

■ Make sure all firewood is dry and

'Prevention is the name of the game

when it comes to fire safety. It's easy to

stay safe and use fireplaces properly.’

C a rte r KeithleyC EO o f HPBA

well-seasonedThe HPBA offers additional fireplace

safety advice that can help reduce the risk of unnecessary fires and prevent carbon monoxide poisonings

■ Make sure the fire is completely out before going to bed or leaving the house

■ Make sure glass doors are installed properly

■ Don’t use more than one manufac­tured firelog at a time

■ Never burn garbage, charcoal or plastic m the fireplace

■ Never use gasoline or any liquid

accelerant to help start a fire■ Keep small children and pets away

from the fireplace■ Never leave a fire unattended■ If building a wood fire, keep the fire

proportionate to the size of the fireplace■ Don’t close the damper until the

embers have completely stopped burn­ing

■ When cleaning out the ashes, don’t put them m paper or store them near the home until extinguished

■ Like any appliance, a fireplace requires regular maintenance to ensure its proper working order

Even if you have a gas fireplace, or any other hearth product, the HPBA rec­ommends annual service by a hearth professional certified by the National Fireplace Institute (NFI)

For more information about proper fireplace use, or to obtain the name of a specialty retailer or NFI-certified profes­sional, visit the Hearth, Patio &Barbecue Association Web site at www hpba org

Block inserts bring light to dark areas(WMS) - Tired of dark hall­

ways’? Trying to “hide” the cluttered contents of a teenag­er’s bedroom or a messy home office’ Consider adding an acrylic block insert unit to your interim door

New from Hy-Lite® Products, the one-piece light weight doorlights are fast and easy to install

Even novice do-it-your­selfers can tackle the job m less than an hour

Designed to add a beautiful, decorative touch to the interi­or of the home, the insert units come completely pre­assembled and feature durable acrylic blocks

These obscure blocks allow light to pass from room to room while “hiding” the con­tents of the room

Available nationwide in home improvement retail stores, the units brighten up dark hallways and interior

areas of the home - like laun­dry rooms and closets - while still protecting homeowner privacy

The interior block unit installs quickly in most stan­dard, hollow-core interior doors

Just pop the door off its hinges, put it on sawhorses and then cut out the opening The acrylic block unit fits directly in the opening and is ready to be put back up and hinged into place immediate­ly

The lightweight units come pre-assembled with step-by- step instructions and require no additional reinforcements to doorjambs

Available m a variety of block patterns, each unit measures 22 inches wide by 70 inches high, so they fit standard 13/8 inch, 30-mch wide interior doors

The door inserts are made

A You are correct Continued exposure to mois­ture and water will eventually rot the wood m the wall and

to fit both slab and panel doors

Hy-Lite acrylic blocks are 70 percent lighter than installed glass block, making the door units easy to work with The door inserts are constructed of hermetically sealed blocks to help prevent internal condensation

The obscure nature of the acrylic block protects home- owner privacy, so the interior door units can also be used m bathroom and bedroom doors

For more information on Hy-Lite acrylic block prod­ucts, call (877) 712-4013 or visit www Hy-Lite com on the Internet

the wallboard The fix we sug­gest might do the trick

However, it should be noted that replacement of the por­tion of the floor that slopes improperly is the correct solu­tion

First, trim the wallboard an inch or so away from the floor so that it cannot get wet from the puddling

Next, drill quarter-inch holes every few inches between the floor and the mudsill (the horizontal bottom piece of wood at the bottom of the wall) so that water can dram through it

Spray inside the holes with Copper Green or some other product that contains copper napthanate - a pesticide and wood preservative

It also might be a good idea to add ventilation to your garage

Air can help to evaporate the moisture m the summer If the holes don’t clog with dirt or ice you should be fine

Also, don’t drill the holes if the outside perimeter isn’t somewhat lower than the inside

solar power(AP) - A team from the

University of Colorado won a national competition for its design of a solar-powered house built with recycled and environmentally friendly materials

The roughly 800-square- foot structure took top honors at the Solar Decathlon in Washington, D C

The 10-day competition was sponsored m part by the U S Department of Energy

Fourteen teams of students competed to design, build and operate the most efficient solar-powered house

The University of Virginia captured second place, and Auburn University was third

The houses were judged m 10 different categories to determine which most effi­ciently used solar energy for heating, cooling, hot water, lighting, appliances, comput­ers and charging an electric car

The team from CU used everything from compressed sunflower board to reclaimed bleacher seats for cabinet fac­ing

Other “green materials used

included soy adhesives m the countertops and bamboo flooring

To help make the home more energy efficient, the team installed thermally insu­lated blinds and limited the highest ceiling to 18 feet

For the competition, teams had to devise ways to harness the power of the sun to supply all the energy for an entire household, including a home- based business

Some 100 students and fac­ulty from engineering, archi­tecture and design programs at CU have worked on the project for the last two years, said Matthew Henry, the team’s construction manager and design leader

Henry, 28, graduated from CU last spring with a degree in environmental design, but he said the project meant so much to him that he came back to help with the competi­tion

“The prize is going to be someone coming up and say­ing, ‘I want to build a whole community of these types of houses I want to build bet­ter,’ Henry said
