Sex offender questioned A 33-year-old Canton man

with a history as a sexual preda-tor is being investigated by Can-ton Police after two incidents at a local swimming pool.

Four girls, ages 6 through 15, told police the man was acting "creepy" last Sunday and Tues-day at a Canton apartment com-plex swimming pool. They said he continually got too close to the girls, swam between their legs and gave them piggy-back rides. He also untied the top one of the girl's two-piece swim suit.

Police checked the man's back-ground and found he is a regis-tered sex offender.

The police are seeking a war-ran t from the Wayne County Prosecutor's office.

Dog poisoning Canton Police are looking into

a possible dog poisoning inci-dent.

A 48-year-old Canton woman

COP CALLS

let her dog out Wednesday morn-ing. When the dog came back in the house about 45 minutes later, the woman said her pet was fine. By noon, the dog was dead.

She took the 1 1/2-year-old dog to a Garden City veterinarian who said she should investigate foul play because the animal had been foaming at the mouth before it died.

The woman said she had received anonymous threats and complaints about the dog bark-ing.

Hole in one Two men were nearly blasted

by dynamite as they golfed the 17th hole at Pheasant Run this week.

The men, a 24-year-old Ann

Arbor resident and a 26-year-old East Lansing resident, said they witnessed a teenager throwing what they thought was fireworks onto the golf course.

Police tracked down the 18-year-old suspect, who admitted to throwing 1/4 stick of dynamite on the course, but said he didn't intend to throw it toward the golfers.

The teen was ticketed for pro-hibited use of fireworks.

Smoke sting Four Canton businesses were

cited Wednesday for sel l ing cigarettes to minors.

Of the 12 businesses checked, four businesses - Clark Gas at Ford and Sheldon, 7-11 at War-ren and Canton Center, 7-11 at Warren and Morton Taylor, and the Mobil Gas at Warren and Sheldon - sold the cigarettes to working teenage decoys.

terminate when both sides sign the new agreement, gives the dis tr ic t $47,000 a year , with sl ightly smal ler commission rates. According to Brand, the present pact pays the district approximately $137,000 a year.

Booher, who was involved in an Oakland County beverage consortium while superintendent in Berkley, said t h i s deal is much better.

"This contract's benefits sur-pass the offerings available to the countywide consortium I was involved with previously," she said. "At the same time, Ply-mouth-Canton was able to retain its control of when the machines are turned on, the locations of the machines and the percentage of carbonated beverages offered."

Coca-Cola views the contract as a par tnership between the company and school district.

"We respond to the needs of the local school district. It's an opportunity for Coca-Cola to have a partnership and invest in the schools, as well as provide a wide-ranging number of prod-ucts for students," said Kevin

Morris, vice president of public affairs for Coca-Cola Bottling Qompany of Michigan.

District officials are conscious of studies which indicate that drinking too much pop can lead to poor nu t r i t ion , as well as health-related problems such as obesity and diabetes.

"I think it's up to the Board of Education, through our health and physical education courses, to re-emphasize the needs identi-fied by many in the medical pro-fession for the use of water, milk and other beverages tha t are more wholesome than carbonat-ed beverages," said Trus tee Roland Thomas. "I don't think we can regulate this through elimination, but I do believe that through education we can have a dramatic impact on the health of our children."

"I believe water and juice are healthier drinks, but I also know some of the discretion of what kids drink needs to be taken on at home, not just us monitoring what they are drinking," added school board member Susan Davis.

School officials report 43 per-cent of the beverages sold in vending machines are water and juice products, with the top sell-ing product Powerade, followed by Coke, water, Cherry Coke and Fruitopia.

In the face of budget problems, many school districts see bever-age contracts as a way to ease financial strains.

"This is just another example of ways we're looking for alterna-tive funding to help our financial situation," said Trustee Steve Guile.

According to Booher, the Coca-Cola contract does not include the projected 50,000 uni ts of milk t h a t will be sold out of machines by the district's food service organization, Sodexo-Marriott.

Brand said competing bever-age bids weren't sought because the district felt, that after check-ing similar deals with other dis-tricts and consortiums, it had "far and above the best deal around."

Trailer from page A1

January 2002 completion date. A temporary sales trailer will

be wheeled to the construction site for people hoping to join at special pre-opening rates, said Bryan Amann, the attorney for the developer.

"I've been getting bombarded with phone calls from people asking me where they can buy memberships," he said.

Amann approached the town-ship about placing a sales trailer at the site.

"Developers have been able to sell the i r houses and condos before they're completed, but until now, no businesses tha t rely on membership money have been able to pre-sell them on-site," he said.

The township planning staff,

planning commission and board of trustees agreed.

The changes to the ordinance allow the temporary sales offices for marketing and hiring. The trailer may stay on-site for up to 180 days. Any office proposed for g rea te r t h a n 180 days will require approval by the planning commission and the commission may place a limit on the tiipe f rame based on the scale and scope of the development.

The ordinance was updated to specify how many trailers may be moved to any development or commercial site.

There may be only one permit-ted at commercial sites, but resi-dential developments may have one trailer per home builder, up to three total.

District budget rises BY KURT KUBAN STAFF WRITER [email protected] t

Van Buren Schools officials approved l a s t week a $48.2 million budget for the 2001-02 fiscal year.

The new budget, which was unanimously approved by the •board of educa t ion Monday, represents an increase of about 3 percent from the 2000-01.

The majority of the budget -some $24 mi l l ion - wil l go toward instruction and instruc-tional programs. More than $6 million will be used for mainte-nance and operat ions. About $5.5 million will be spent on special education.

VAN BUREN PUBLIC SCHOOLS About $11.6 million of the

new budget comes from local taxes, including more than $1.4 million f rom a s ink ing fund millage t h a t passed in 1998. Much of the s inking fund is be ing used to r e b u i l d Raw-sonville and Edgemont elemen-tary schools.

Can ton Townsh ip con-tributes about $519,000 in local tax money to the district's bud-get.

The rest of the money comes from the s ta te . According to Mar ian Niner , t he dis t r ic t ' s

director of business , t he dis-t r i c t r ece ived a 5 - p e r c e n t increase for per-pupil funding from the state.

Niner said each of the dis-trict's nine schools will receive a larger budget to work with than they had last year.

"All the schools will receive a 2.6 percent increase in appro-priation allocation. Each prin-cipal will determine where the money goes within the school," said Niner.

The 2001-02 f i sca l y e a r begins July 1.

Last summer, Scott worked at the PGA doing some of the same things he does now. His decision to return was based on the man-agerial t raining he received. "I really got my feet wet last year."

The i n t e r n s h i p p rov ided a means for Scott to apply what he learned in school, he said.

"(I've learned) the importance of hard work. Doing your job as well as you can do and working hard can take you far," he said.

Graduating in 1997 from Ply-mouth Canton high school, Scott returned last year to help coach freshmen boys basketball.

Recently, his basketball hobby sent him to the Ivory Coast in «Africa to coach the U.S. Athletes in Action team, which swept all b u t one opponen t d u r i n g t h e t o u r n a m e n t p lay . Sco t t w e n t with the team to Africa for the second time in June. He has also traveled to Jordan and Lebanon.

Action puts college basketbal l players together to play Olympic teams in Africa.

Scott served as pres ident of the group for two years and was a member for one year dur ing his stint at U-M.

Music is also among Scott 's interests. He learned the guitar dur ing his senior year in high school and recently took up the drums.

Scott said he loves the work he doeg and en joys i t f rom t h e m o m e n t he w a k e s up in t h e morning.

"The best part is when I wake up and look forward to going (to work) instead of dreading it ... There wasn't a day last summer t h a t I sa id , ' I have to go to work.'"

PREVENT ATHLETE'S FOOT Anyone can suffer from athlete's foot. Ifs a fungal infection that thrives in a swarm, moist and dark

environment. Shoes present an excellent environment for fungal infections to grow. The best prevention is to create a shoe climate least suitable for their growth:

• Cnoose a shoe made of a natural material that allows the foot to breathe. • Apply absorbing cornstarch to your shoes before and after wearing them. • Don't wear the same shoes on consecutive days. • Clean your feet thoroughly at least twice a day. • Change your socks at feast twice a day.

If you are prone to athlete's foot or other fungai infections, see your podiatrists. Fungus can cause severe nail infections, but new medications are available by prescription for this condition.

tional competition sanctioned by the Professional Golf Association that pits top American tour pro-fessionals aga ins t the i r Euro-pean counterparts.

As the treasurer and a director a t Oakland Hills Country Club — not to mention an avid golfer — Aginian seized the opportuni-ty to he lp o r g a n i z e t h e 35 th Ryder Cup, which will be held from Sept. 23-28, 2003.

The Ryder Cup "is t r u l y an i n t e r n a t i o n a l even t t h a t will really focus a positive light on this area," Aginian said.

His other contributions to the communi ty , in h i s op in ion , '

should be par for the course. "We have so many freedoms in

this country, I feel people have unlimited ways to give back to t h e i r communi t i e s , " Ag in i an said. "It's important to give back, in w h a t e v e r un ique way you can."

Other members of the Commu-nity House board praised Agini-an's efforts.

"He certainly has a great repu-ta t ion , and he 's been a g r e a t f r i e n d to The C o m m u n i t y House," said Gordon Riggs, pres-ident of the Community House board of directors.

In receiving the Community

Service Award, Aginian joins a distinguished group of local pro-fess ionals who have all le f t a positive mark on the local com-munity, Roberts said. The award was first given in 1988 and has recognized 14 individuals to date for c o m m u n i t y i n v o l v e m e n t "above the normal duties of their jobs."

Pas t recipients of the award include Birmingham business-men Geoffrey Hockman, Richard A s t r e i n and L a r r y S h e r m a n , Sally Gerak and Shirley Bryant, community relations director for the Birmingham Public School District.

With the tick of the clock, it was over. S t u d e n t s w e n t s t r e a m i n g ( a n d

screaming) down the hallways toward the exits, stopping only to hug a friend or shed a tear, as t h e off ic ial s t a r t of s u m m e r vaca t i on began a t 2:55 p .m. Thursday June 14.

And with it, the official end of the debut year of Canton's first Middle School, Discovery.

Since the grounds of the school have still not been completed, the students chose off-site desti-nations for their last day togeth-er as a class. The sixth grade visited the Skatin' Station II in C a n t o n . The s e v e n t h g r a d e s p e n t t he m o r n i n g a t Supe r . Bowl on Ford Road. And, t he e ighth grade enjoyed most of t he i r day at Livonia 's Ro ta ry Park.

It was a last fling where class-mates could still enjoy the com-p a n y of one a n o t h e r a n d t h e camaraderie of th is par t icular school year. Yearbooks were traded and signed at each of the destinations, and again back at the school before the final bell.

And, then with that final tick of the clock, it ended. Students jumped for joy, and teachers and staff breathed a collective sigh of

relief. "We su r -

vived a year of g r e a t s t r e s s qu i t e nicely," said P r i n c i p a l Roche LaVic-

tor, in an interview the following i week. "The tremendous change ;

encoun te red by everyone was I f r ightening at t imes, but over-coming i t made us all stronger a s an e d u c a t i o n a l f ami ly . A number of new traditions were instituted, many a result of the m a n y w o n d e r f u l s t u d e n t s we h a d a t Di scovery t h i s y e a r , which will be guides for us in the future."

Asked if there were any prob-lems or f a i l u r e s looking back over the year, he said, "No fail-ures really, j u s t more learning opportunities. Any real problems tha t we experienced were due to unfinished building items t h a t should be remedied by the open-ing of the next school year."

And, for final thoughts, LaVic- :

tor replied: "A special thanks to the voters

t h a t a l lowed Discovery to ;!j become a reali ty. Many, many '-j t h a n k s to t h e p a r e n t s t h a t i shared their wonderful children | with us. Thank you to Canton ;j| Township for the wonderful ser- || vices provided to us."

Community leaders praise Schoolcraft's Dick McDowell BY HEATHER NEEDHAM STAFF WRITER [email protected]

Goodbye, Dick McDowell. » Friends, colleagues and politi-c i ans alike all bid farewell last ^week to Richard McDowell, who Retired after 20 years as School-c ra f t College president.

A McDonald's restaurant play-f u l l y renamed "McDowell's" ^thanks to a digitally retouched ^photograph, was jus t one of many ways the community col-lege's longest serving^ president was roasted at his farewel l reception. His send-off was held, fittingly enough, inside the col-lege's McDowell Center, which was named after him.

Several people mentioned the building in their addresses hon-oring McDowell, who began

< working as president 7,227 days

; "As a sitting CEO of a college ; he's already managed to have a •-building named after him," said 1 -state Sen. Thaddeus McCotter, ( R-Livonia. McCotter also is a for-; mer Schoolcraft trustee.

Another presenter who men-tioned the McDowell Center was Carol Strom, chairwoman of the

Career highlights

Some of Dick McDowell's honors/accomplishments dur-ing his tenure as Schoolcraft president:

B Named First Citizen by city of Livonia, 1996

• Named one of 50 top com-munity college presidents in the nation by the Community College Leadership Program, the University of Texas

• Led the college through two successful North Central accreditation processes

• Honored by the college through the naming of the s tudent services building, McDowell Center

• Led effort to establish the development authority for the Seven Mile Crossing commer-cial development project, a steady source of college rev-enue

Old friends: County Execu-tive Ed McNamara was among those praising Dick McDowell.

Schoolcraft College Board of Trustees.

"How many people do you know who get to retire from a place with a bui lding named after them?" Strom said.

McDowell's successor, Conway Jeffress, who was promoted from Schoolcraft vice pres ident , described McDowell as a "good boss and a good friend."

McDowell, whose retirement was effective June 30, said he plans to travel abroad, spend time with his grandchildren and stay involved in Schoolcraft.

"We're going to do all the things we do now except we're not going to come to work," McDowell said.

This August, he and his wife, Ann, plan to take a riverboat cruise from Munich to Amster-dam in Europe.

A fellow community college president, Albert Lorenzo, of Macomb Community College, said McDowell, whom he's known for years, was worthy of a great send-off.

"He has to be one of the most respected community college presidents in Michigan," Lorenzo said. "He's served in about every leadership capacity there is."

McDowell's personality is the reason for his respect.

"He's very up front and hon-est," Lorenzo said. "He takes appropriate stands based on pro-

fessional opinion — plus, he's really fun to be with."

Art Rockalo, a Schoolcraft alumni who has a Schoolcraft art scholarship named for him, said one only has to look at how well Schoolcraft is run to see McDow-ell's legacy.

"He's run this school pretty effectively, and it doesn't have any debt," Rockalo, a former Northville resident said. "He's very personable and he knows how to deal with people and stu-dents. He's a great leader."

David Brandon, CEO of Domi-no's Pizza and a former School-craft trustee, likened McDowell's leadership qualities to that of an eagle, a bird known for using the force of storms to fly higher.

"Not only is it a national sym-bol but eagles are also known for being fierce, tenacious and com-petitive," Brandon said, referring to, qual i t ies he a t t r ibu ted to McDowell.

When he became head coach of the Farmington Hills Mercy softball team in 1995, Jack Falvo's goal was to take the program to a higher level.

Seven seasons later, Falvo has achieved that objective and not only made the Marlins consistent winners but perennial s ta te con-tenders.

Mercy has been to the state quarterfinals three of the last four years and the semifi-nals the last two, com-piling a 120-45 record dur^80^ Falvo

"It's easier to climb t^a , ,m- Mercy than stay on. the mountain," Falvo said, "but the program is where I wanted it to be when I f irst became coach at Mercy.

"The goal was to be able to play com-petitive ball with the best teams in the state, and I think we've got the team to that point now."

There were no great expectations for

bases and the entire outfield. Mercy went 35-8 and returned to the

Division I Final Four, losing to eventu-al runner-up Waterford Kettering in eight innings; 2-1.

For the job he did guiding the Mar-lins to another winning season, Falvo has been chosen Observerland Coach of the Year.

"I was greatly surprised by the suc-cess of the team, because we had so lit-tle experience on the field," Falvo said.

"But, when you have a pitcher like Megan (Fediuk) and so many players who are disciplined and committed to being successful, then it's not surpris-ing.

"A lot of a t tent ion is focused on Megan at pitcher, but you can't under-estimate Krystle Shina's leadership and how she quietly led the team with h^r work ethic and commitment."

The Marlins also won the Catholic League championship for the first time under Falvo, ending a string of three straight runner-up finishes.

"That was a t remendous shot of enthusiasm for the program," Falvo said. "It showed us we can be champi-ons at a higher level."

Falvo, who has a 170-75 career record at Mercy, shares credit for the team's success with assistant coaches Nancy Malinowski and Jerry Ashe, parents and former players.

"Record-wise, this was the best team in Mercy history," Falvo said. "Was it the best team? I think it's important to point out the senior team of '98 taught Mercy it could compete at the quarter-final level, and last year's team showed' us we could aspire to be state champs.

"This year's team might be the' best we've had, but it's because of those two showing the way."

ALL-AREA FIRST TEAM

Megan Fediuk, pitcher, Mercy: The all-state

junior was the key to Mercy's success, posting

23-4 record and an impressive 0 .62 earned

run average.

She won 13 games by shutout, including a

10-0, mercy-rule victory over Livonia Ladywood

in the Catholic League championship game.

Fediuk also has amazing control; she record-

ed 2 0 1 s t r ikeouts in 168 2 / 3 innings while

issuing jus t nine walks. u

Facing a totai of 626 batters, she allowed 96.

hits and only 26 runs, 15 of which were earned*.

Over the last two seasons, Fediuk is 39-9 with

327 strikeouts.

"Any t ime she pitches we have a chance to

win," Falvo said. "At the beginning of the sea-

son, she pitched her game and allowed all the

new players t ime to develop. Because she took

the responsibility of being a leader, it gave us

t ime to pull together as a team."

Meghan Mlsiak, pitcher, Churchill: The third-

year varsity pitcher posted a 20-8 record her

junior year with an 0.59 ERA.

In 203 innings, Misiak struck out 370 batters

and allowed just 30 walks and 17 earned runs.

She gave up 77 hits ( .108 opponents batt ing

average). Her fielding percentage was .919. •

Among the honors Misiak achieved this year

was All-WLAA, All-District, All-Region and honor-

able ment ion Al l-State. She is also a WLAA

scholar-athlete.

"Meghan had an ou ts tand ing year on t f j e

mound as she won MVP for the second straight

year , " Churchill coach Dana Hardwidge s a i l .

"Her spins and locations improved and she used

her changeup more effectively this year to keep,

batters off guard. ? '

"She is a confident force and seems to pitch

her best under pressure. A true indicator of her

success this season is being recognized as AII--

State honorable mention. We are extremely glad

Meghan has a year left to pitch at Churchill."

Beth Danielewicz, pitcher, N. Farmington: Danielewicz is the primary reason the Raiders

are 47-25 over the last two seasons. .

She was 21-10 this year with an awe-inspir-.

ing 0 .44 ERA to lead North to a 23-13 record.;

She had 248 strikeouts as opposed to 24 walks

in 202 innings. •

Ex-hockey player makes living on ice BY RICHARD L . SHOOK STAFF WRITER

Jason Carriere is finding a way to make a living doing what he loves — hockey.

Not playing, though no doubt the 27-year-old native of Edmonton, Alberta, harbors secret desires to re tu rn to making a living through competitive sport.

"I'm skating four times week," Car-riere said. "I'm trying to get back in shape. Who knows what can happen in the fall.

"But for the most part my roots are set here now."

Carriere is trying to make a living from teaching youngsters — he doesn't discriminate, he'll take oldsters on, too — some of the finer points of playing hockey.

"It's worth it," he said, "when you have a parent come in and say, 'You did a great job with my kid.' It means a lot when you hear something like that."

Carriere 's company is named Pro Scout Hockey, Inc., and it's three — just about the same age Carriere was when he first got going on skates.

PSH offers a full line of instruction. It accepts teams, lines, groups, individ-uals, and any position. It teaches on-ice skills and off-ice training.

Carriere has his own office but does his on-ice work at the Arctic Pond Arena.

"I owe a lot to John S tan isk

(owner/operater of the Arctic Pond)," Carriere said. "He helped me get where I am."

Carriere most recently coached the Michigan Bantam AA Whalers, which won several tournaments and was a finalist in the State of Michigan Tour-nament.

As a player, he has skated at forward and defense for the Indianapolis Ice of the CHL, the South Carolina Stingrays of the ECHL, the Fort Worth Fire of the CHL and the Jacksonville Bullets of the Southern Hockey League.

He also played on the Calgary Canucks of the Alberta Junior Hockey League, which won the 1994-95 Cana-dian National Tier II Junior Champi-onship, the Centennial Cup.

"Since I've played both defense and forward," he said, "that gives me a good perspective for teaching both."

One of his ex-coaches, former Detroit Red Wing Mike Krushelnyski, endorses PSH's program.

So far Carriere is depending on his legs and results to spread the word.

"I don't have a lot of money for adver-tising, so word of mouth is what I have to go by," he said. "I get out to rinks, anywhere I can."

He has worked with teams, gives pri-vate lessons, takes on kids or adults and will even take his instructional sessions to your ice.

What he wants is to get bigger and better. So he can keep doing something he loves.

A ARTHRITIS * 0 FOUNDATION Take Control, vvv- Gin Hc-lp M ICHIGAN CHAPTER

The Observer & Eccentric/ SUNDAY, JULY 1, 2001 (CP)B3

Late coach's wife was a legend of her own Coach John Herrington is the

person most credited with mak-ing Farmington Harrison foot-ball synonymous with winning over t h e l a s t three decades.

But he had a fu l l p a r t n e r in that endeavor in F r a n H e r r i n g -ton, his wife of 38 y e a r s a n d Harrison's No. 1 fan.

Aside f r o m longtime assis- DAN t a n t coach Bob O'MEARA S u t t e r , F r a n had more to do with the success of t h e p r o g r a m t h a n anyone besides John.

And it wasn't simply because of her unflagging support for her husband.

So it was a profound loss for Herr ington and the Hawks — one that transcends the game of football and touches the collec-t i ve soul of a communi ty — when F r a n , 60, succumbed to renal cancer Wednesday follow-ing a three-month struggle with the illness.

There will be a memorial ser-vice for Fran, whose wish was to be cremated, a t 1 p.m. today at McCabe F u n e r a l Home on 12 Mile Road, west of Orchard Lake and a short drive from Harrison High School.

Anyone who has been to a Harrison game, no doubt noticed Fran.

She always wore a Harr ison football jersey with the number 1 on it and her name on the back.

At home games, she was usu-ally pacing back and forth along the fence, too nervous and too involved in the action to s tand still or sit in the stands.

"She was the perfect wife; we shared the same interests, and she loved football at Har r i son dear ly , " J o h n said, r eca l l i ng Fran insisted on driving him to school on game days.

"She would aFways say t h e same thing — 'Give me a kiss; Good luck to my Hawks, and I'll see you on the victory field.' It was a little ritual we had."

A f t e r H a r r i s o n had r a l l i ed from a two-touchdown deficit to .defeat Marysville in a 1987 state

semi f ina l game, F r a n w a s in tears.

"She's crying because now we can't have Thanksgiving dinner," John said.

But I was mystified. Wasn ' t winning a good thing?

It turned out they were tears of joy.

Through her watery eyes, Fran explained, "No, I'm just so happy that you won!"

But Fran was much more than a supportive wife who cheered for her husband's team. She was never a football widow.

John and Fran were a team. and not just as a married couple. In a way, they were like the king and queen a t the homecoming dance — t h e dance be ing the Harrison football program.

I don't mean that in an auto-cratic sense, because together they were ambassadors and not rulers.

If someone asks why the Har-rison program has been so suc-cess fu l , F r a n was one of the intangible reasons tha t helped make it so.

Fran never ran a practice or called a play — although I think she gave John some advice on occasion — but she was an active player in the overall program.

"They were best friends, too," said veteran booster club mem-ber and f ami ly f r i e n d Lance Pesci. "That was their life, not just John's."

Shared personalities Fran shared John's genial per-

sonali ty, and t h a t served her well as she performed many of t h e beh ind- the - scenes du t i e s t h a t got pa ren t s involved and created a sense of community, goodwill and common purpose in the program.

"Fran was a unique lady," Sut-ter said. "Fran was just a great football wife for John.

"She supported him totally in his coaching efforts, and she was a tremendous booster to our pro-gram and to our kids."

Us ing J o h n ' s c l a s s room at night, Fran taught the players' mothers about the game of foot-ball.

She also worked with boosters to organize events such as pan-cake breakfasts, meet-the-team

n i g h t s and pos t - season ban-quets.

During the playoffs, Fran and some of the moms or coaches' wives would prepare a special mea l for the S u n d a y coaches meeting. If the team made it to the state finals, the coaches had prime rib the last week.

"That was something to shoot for right there," Sutter said.

And every Tuesday night dur-ing the season, the Herringtons would meet with the parents to review film of the last game.

"Back in the old days, she used to r u n the projector back and forth before we had video tape," John said.

"Her invo lvemen t w i th t he p a r e n t s and the k ids was tremendous.

"She loved the kids as much as I do, a n d many of t h e m are g rown now and are good friends."

Because she was involved and knowledgeable about the game, F r a n w a s known to offer h e r opinion, too, if she thought the coaches had erred.

"She knew the game of football better than most women did, and she cer ta in ly let John and us know when we screwed up," Sut-ter said.

"Fortunately, there weren't too m a n y of those occasions, bu t t h e r e were t imes we met the wrath of Fran."

"When we lost to Fordson in 1984 w i t h a good t e a m , she wouldn't talk to me for two days, because she didn't think I called a very good game," John said.

Had own career Fran was a professional per-

son, too, and had her own career. She worked in the medical field for 40 years and managed a doc-tor's office for the last 28 until her retirement in December.

J o h n and F r a n knew each o ther since the fou r th grade, graduated from Waterford High School t o g e t h e r in 1958 and began dating in college.

"We ended up g e t t i n g mar -ried," John said. "We had a great life together."

And tha t life revolved largely around Harrison football. Of the 408 games in which John has coached over four decades, Fran

Fran, who is also survived by he r children, Layne and Leisa (Rob) Zelinski, and a brother, Dr. Jerry Goff, "was full of life and very outgoing," John added.

Lady Crusaders hoop recruits BY BRAD EMONS SPORTS WRITER [email protected]

I t 's summer , but it 's not too early to plan ahead for the 2001-02 Madonna University women's basketball season as far as coach Marylou Jansen is concerned.

Jansen , who lost five seniors off last year 's 18-12 squad, has added three new recruits.

So f a r in the fold is 5-foot-9 g u a r d J e n H u n l e y , who was Livonia Ladywood's sixth man; Cour tney Rehbine , a 6-1 post player from Macomb Community College; a n d 5-10 f o r w a r d Marwa Ayoub of Dearborn High.

Jansen also hopes to land two or t h r e e more p l aye r s be fo re school starts .

"Last yea r we got pas t more powerful and faster teams with our hal f -cour t offense and our half-court defense," said Jansen, who led M U to a Wolver ine -Hoosier Athlet ic Conferenc co-title (11-3) and the finals of the WHAC Tournament. "One of our goals is to become more athletic. What we're trying to do for next year is press and stretch out our defense a little more with some people who can rim the floor.

"And so far I'm pleased with who we've brought in."

Hunley helped Ladywood fin-ish 17-7 overall and reach the Class A regional finals. She had a season-high 23 points in a dis-t r ic t t o u r n a m e n t victory over Livonia Stevenson, hi t t ing nine of 10 shots from the floor, includ-ing three 3-pointers.

"She's a cutting and slashing type of player with great funda-

m e n t a l s and good footwork ," Jansen said. "She runs the floor well and she has a good attitude. And we love getting players from Lldywood."

Rehbine , a C lawson High g radua te , played two years of vol leybal l a t Macomb before switching over to the basketball court last season where she led the Eas tern Conference of the Michigan Community College Athletic Association in rebound-ing with 13.8 per game.

Rehbine has three years of eli-gibility left at MU.

"She needs work on her skills on the offensive end, but she's aggressive on the boards and is g e t t i n g good on h e r pu tbacks around the basket," Jansen said. "She's really a coachable kid, too."

Ayoub gives MU an inside and ou t s ide presence offens ively , according to Jansen.

"She'll bang inside, crash the boards and rebound, but she can also go out and hi t the three," Jansen said. "She's kind of like Kathy Panganis (MU's leading returning scorer). That 's a nice combination to have, and she's a good athlete."

These guys find niche as acrobats

While my buddy and I waited along a nor thern stream bank for the sun to set, we were en te r ta ined by dancing fish.

Watch ing them j u m p and twist in t h e a i r w i th only t h e sound of t h e r u s h i n g w a t e r to m a i n t a i n a bea t , made the time pass quickly.

They were probably chubs or darters based on the i r size. Most were esti-mated to be three to five inches long. Their silvery bodies reflected the set-t i n g r a y s of sunl ight providing bril-l i a n t con t r a s t a g a i n s t t he ref lec ted 'shadows of the willow and cedar trees along the shore.

•" As we watched the small mayfl ies sk imming the water ' s surface laying eggs, they came within range of those finned flycatchers.

Typically the fish would jump out of t h e w a t e r a n d g r a b t h e i n s e c t a s expert ly as any fea thered flycatcher. B u t t h e r e w e r e v a r i a t i o n s on t h i s theme.

D u r i n g ou r show we j u d g e d t h e jumping of the fish like judges of a div-ing or g y m n a s t i c s compe t i t i on . We l e a r n e d to t r a in our eyes for detai ls tha t were visible for only a fraction of a second.

Several fish easily compensated for the backward movement of the mayfly ;as it moved pass t he fish. When the fish moved out of the water it had to a d j u s t to t he ac tua l posi t ion of the m a y f l y as it passed overhead . This often resulted in a backwards somer-sault .

Most fish made this look easy, like a low d i f f i c u l t y j a c k - k n i f e d ive fo r h u m a n s . Bu t the re were a few t h a t made some twists and turns while in t h e a i r to cap tu re t h e mayfly in i t s mouth. After all the whole purpose of the j u m p was to grab the fly, so if they missed the fly points were deducted.

Most flies never flew again! T h e h e i g h t of t h e j u m p v a r i e d

depending on the f l ight of the fly. A distance of six or eight inches, judged to the best of our ability, was getting into t he Olympic category.

R e m e m b e r , t h e f i s h a r e not ve ry long. Height, twists and tu rns includ-ed in the somersault added points to their score.

Bu t t he unques t ionab le winner of t he night was a fish with determina-tion. As the mayfly fluttered near the surface moving downstream with the current , a fish jumped to reach the fly on its first aerial assault .

Missed! Then, before the fly moved very far,

and before it was moved out of posi-t i o n , i t quickly j u m p e d h i g h e r and

grabbed for the fly again. Missed! I m m e d i a t e l y t r y i n g aga in be fo re

they mayfly had a chance to gain alti-t u d e or r e c o v e r f r o m t h e second a s s a u l t , the fish jumped , twis ted in the air and finally captured the fly.

The "flipper want to be" awrrd goes to t h e f i sh t h a t danced on i t s t a i l . Ins tead of jumping and then landing back in the water ready to jump again,

^ t h i s w i n n e r s tood on i t s t a i l a n d ' pushed itself down s t ream with only ; t he ta i l touching the surface, eyeing ; the fly every moment.

Upon grabbing the fly it made a suc-• c e s s f u l " s p l a s h l e s s " d ive i n t o t h e

water . T h e i r accuracy in catching fish is

amazing , as well as the i r gymnast ic capabilities. Fish can see above water in a cone of vision t h a t is about 97 degrees.

T h i s is c a u s e d by t h e t r a n s i t i o n be tween l ight rays pass ing f rom air into wa te r . Their binocular vision is restricted even more because of where their eyes are located.

Cons ide r ing all t he se fac tors , t he e n t e r t a i n i n g f ish were very good at shagging flies.

Fish watching can be very enjoyable, bu t you have to be in the field to see it!

God's fishbowl: Florida's finest catch

Prize catch: Livonian Dennis Wright shows off an 8-pound crevalle during his recent trip to the Keys.

BY BRAD EMONS SPORTS WRITER [email protected]

Dennis Wright calls himself a "blue collar fisherman."

Three years ago this so-called "novice" decided he wanted to explore backcountry flats fishing in the Florida Keys.

"I always wanted to catch a sailfish," said Wright , who owns Wright 's Ha rdware in Livonia and has served as Livonia Junior Athletic League president and on the Livo-nia Parks and Recreation Commission.

Six trips later, Wright is hooked. He said there is something to the beautiful

sunsets, turquoise water and the smell of ocean air while battling some of the fastest and strongest sportfish in the world.

"It's God's fishbowl," he said. "I've just had an inc red ib le t i m e . I t ' s j u s t i nc red ib l e scenery. Because of the clarity of the water, you can't tell the water from the sky ."And it's so quiet when you're out there.

" There's such a variety out there. You'll pass porpoise, sharks, mangro, snapper and barracuda."

When Wright heads to the Keys, there's only one place to go — out of Islamorada, billed as the "Sportfishing Capitol of the World.'

Wright's guide out of the World Famous Whale Harbor is Captain Steve Murray.

For Wright and his store manager, Dave Greager of Redford, there's enough fish sto-r ies to go around for m o n t h s a f t e r the i r recent four-day, five-night stay.

Chartering a 171/2-foot flats boat from Mur-ray, the threesome ventured out 22 square miles out into the Florida Bay, a section of water between the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico.

They motored all the way over to Flamin-go, which is par t of Everglades Nat ional State Park.

And here is w h a t Wright and Greager hauled in:

Day I : A half-zone sea t rou t and! other assorted fish, along with a 125-pound tar-pon.

Day 2: Thirty-eight sea trout or ladyfish, along with a 7-foot, 155-pound tarpon which took 40 minutes to haul in.

D a y 3: Approximately 75-80 sea t rout ,

ladyfish and catfish. Also, six trophy sharks, including three bull sharks, ranging from 6 fee t , 100 pounds to over 8 fee t a n d 175 pounds, and three black tips, the smallest 4 feet , 45 pounds to t he biggest e s t ima ted between 5-6 feet and 80 pounds.

Day 4: Thirty combination trout; an 8-fotft crevalle; three small bonnet-head sha rks between 18 inches and 3 feet; a 4-foot, 60-pound nu r se sha rk ; a f ies ty SVa-foot bull shark; and an 8-foot, 200-pound blacktip.

"It?s weird if you catch something t h a t could eat you, but really there's no art to it, you throw bait out there after you cut it in two," Wright said. "Physically i t ' s a real challenge. Once we hooked into them we had to un-anchor and put the boat out.

"The last time I hur t a sciatic nerve in my back. This time I got ready for it. I worked out both my chest and my legs."

Wright has done a deep sea charter , but prefers the backcountry flats.

"You can be in four inches of water or five feet," he said. "That's the beauty of it. For-mer President Bush fishes out of Islamora-da. It's just like you used to see on TV with Curt Gowdy on American Sportsman."

As far as an outdoor excursion, Wright calls backcountry flats fishing "a very afford-able vacation if you're looking for advent ture."

"I called t he ( I s lamorada) C h a m b e r of Commerce and got on a mai l ing l ist ," he said. "They'll write back to you and give you a l l t h e i n f o r m a t i o n you need a s f a r a s motels, charters and restaurants.

"We usually stay at the Key Lantern Motel or the Blue Fin Inn. There are lots of great res taurants . The people are very friendly. They're very laid back. There's no pressure.",

Wright says he has never had a bad expe-rience since he made his way to Islamorda.

"It 's premium fishing and you get wl you pay for," he said. "With four charters, a i r fa re and car r en ta l (out of Fo r t Laud-erdale), food, beverage, motel and tips, it's around $1,800.

"All I can say is that we came, we saw and we caught. I've never had a bad trip."

ALLEY

AL HARRISON

I look out at the vas t blue Pacific Ocean, t he b r e a k e r s coming in on shore as myri-ads of sea gul l s soar overhead.

Then I turn a r o u n d and here I am on the approach of lane No. 9 with ball in hand ready to roll another strike.

This is the scenario at Sea Bowl in Pacifica, California.

I t was only a shor t dr ive down t h e coast f r om S a n Francisco where I was visiting my son, Don, last weekend.

Sea Bowl is one of only a h a n d f u l of bowling c e n t e r s •located in the Bay area.

According to the manager on duty, Tom Stepp, Sea Bowl was voted as the bowling cen-ter having the best view of the ocean on the West Coast.

This is a redo of an older center with some very attrac-tive design features, mindful of a n a u t i c a l t h e m e . Bu t inside, they really mean busi-ness with 32 synthetic lanes and r e t a i n i n g t h e wood approaches.

Even on a busy S u n d a y n i g h t t he lanes we re well cared for and the shot was not at all bad. There was plenty of a mix, with young adults , some kids and a few seniors, everyone was having fun.

My son had a couple of good games and I was my u s u a l self.

They had a nicely stocked Pro Shop, but it was not open at the time.

Even t h o u g h West Coast r a t e s a r e h igher t h a n back here, they offer a lot of spe-cials a n d specia l r a t e s for their league bowlers.

This is one of t he more attractive houses I have seen lately, managed by Mark Gan-duglia.

We also visited the Lanes at The Presidio, located on mili-tary base originally buil t by the Army.

This 12-lane house called Presidio Bowling Center is on a historic site, no longer part of they Army, but there are m a n y re l ics of our h i s t o ry remaining.

The bowling center had also been remodeled recently, very nice and over looking San Francisco Bay, r ight by the Golden Gate Br idge , yet another spectacular view.

We did not have a chance to bowl there, but talked with a manager, Larry Mitchell, and d i scussed the non-smoking i s s u e which I h a d w r i t t e n about two weeks ago.

In Ca l i f o rn i a t h e r e is no smoking allowed in any public bui ld ings anywhere , and of course tha t includes all bowl-ing facilities.

"It didn't really have much effect he re , " Mitchel l sa id . "Smokers can just step outside if they have to light up."

It was not much of an issue at Sea Bowl, either,

Our odyssey also took us to the Yerba Buena Ice Skating and Bowling Cen te r in t he

heart of the.downtown area. We jus t missed the manag-

er , B a r b a r a McBride , bu t spoke to the one in ' charge , Jeff Moyers. He also spoke of the smoking issue and how it h a s not seemingly af fec ted their business.

It seemed odd to see people walking in and out wi th ice skates or bowling bags, but not both.

This aga in , a very nicely appointed and well designed bowling center with 12 lanes.

We also visited site of a for-mer bowling cen te r , which was transformed into a mega-

• music store. This one had been a 40-lane

center called Japantown, now gone by. t h e ways ide fo r a more lucrative business.

From information gleaned from other sources, the trans-formation to non-smoking put a severe damper on the bowl-ing centers in California.

But since the San Francisco Bay Area has so few compared to our choices of over 100 bowling centers in the Greater Detroit area, people will go to bowl t h e r e r e g a r d l e s s of w h e t h e r or no t t h e y can smoke and bowl a t the same time.

The only other bowling, of sorts we experienced was the electronic kind, a really wild game played on a giant screen called "HyperBowl," in which the player rolls a giant bowl-ing ball all through the streets of S a n F ranc i sco , dodging a r o u n d t h e cable cars , and finally coming up to a set of p ins to knock down, a very

If you have a chance to trav-el to the San Francisco Bay area, it might be fun to bring along your bowling gear. This is a great place to visit, lots to see and do.

You can see everything'from

Alcatraz to purple-haired peo-ple, ride the cable car, tour the bay by boat and enjoy some fine dining from every nation you can think of.

organiza-tion's con-certs, not realizing society pres-ident Lois Beznos would approach him about joining the board near-ly three decades later. Osburn not only enthu-siastically accepted but took on the duties of treasurer just in time for the opening of the 2001-2002 season in Septem-ber.

"I've always had a love for chamber music," said Osburn. "The music is very com-plex yet very subtle at the same time. It's soothing yet very inter-esting."

Some con-certs like Yo-Yo Ma at

Orchestra Hall earlier this year are as memorable for Osburn as that first Chamber Music Society of Detroit concert.

"To hear a cello fill a hall by itself was fantastic," said Osburn, "but just as memorable was hearing Branford Marsalis (with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra) in March. I decided I wanted to get a little bit more involved with an organization that was bringing some great culture to the Detroit area - bringing in virtu-osos, masters of their instruments."

Osburn's expertise as Art Van Fur-niture's vice president of performance excellence and 20 years as a quality leader and consultant to numerous organizations will go a long way to helping him serve on the strategic planning committee for the Chamber Music Society of Detroit.

"We feel it's very important to have a vision," said Beznos who's begin-ning her 15th year with the organiza-tion. "We're always expanding as a way of staying healthy and thriving. We have a wonderful education pro-gram with a two-week string residen-cy that visits multitudes of schools and universities and culminates in a performance in our series so that they know how to listen to and enjoy a concert."

Beznos has seen a lot of changes over the years because the organiza-tion keeps an eye on the future. Founded in 1944, the Chamber Music Society of Detroit is committed to presenting the highest quality of per-formers as well as encouraging new

Nancy Barr moves spryly through the first of 11 galleries featuring a comprehensive survey of African-American photography from 1842 to the

"It's unprecedented," said Barr. "Nobody's ever done a black photography exhib-it on this scale before. It shows how African-Ameri-can photographers prolifer-ated in the s ta tes . Deb Willis went to public and private archives and muse-ums to find all this work."

Pioneers like Jules Lion made it possible to counter the dis tor ted images of African-Americans in pop-ular culture. Lion brought daguerreotypes to New Orleans in 1840, a year after the invention of the process. Daguerreotypes caught the attention of the public quickly - not every-one could afford or had

time to sit for a painted portrait. Daguerreotypes allowed common folk to record and commemorate births, anniversaries and other life events. Black peo-ple's pride bloomed. Even though slavery existed in

Schools in for s tudents rehears ing for European concerts BY LINDA ANN CHOMIN STAFF WRITER [email protected]

Edward Lucius stops the music to get more pop out of the trumpets. The Thurston High School Band direc-tor is serious about preparing the student musicians for an upcoming European tour, but wants to make it fun as well. After all, this is supposed to be summer

vacation and these kids rehearse from 8 a.m. to noon Monday through Friday.

"I'm so proud of the kids," said Lucius, who along with 65 students and 39 adults, leave for Vienna, Austria, July 9. "They've been work-ing hard after working all fall with marching band and during the win-ter and spring to perform at festi-vals and competitions."

Edward Lucius None of the students seem to

mind the rigorous rehearsal schedule though. Only a few have ever been to Europe before so they're excited about the trip.

Cathy Rybka isn't really complaining when she says "summer vacation is really shortened and when we come back we start marching band camp Aug. 1." She's just stating a fact.

"It's tedious," said Monique Worischeck sitting right next to her, "but we don't want to go to Europe to have audiences throw tomatoes at us."

Besides, the trip is about more than just performing outdoors in gazebos and town squares during the 13 days in Austria, Switzerland and Germany.

"The most exciting part is the sightseeing," said Chris Ehaenberg.

"No, shopping," shouts out Jenny Rybka, "with all the money from my parents."

Black from page CI

African-American photogra-phers were not only achieving success but recording the like-nesses of leading political and cultural figures. C.M. Battey's portraits of Booker T. Washing-ton (1908) and W.E.B. Du Bois (1999 p r in t f rom a 1918 pho-tograyure) were part of a series published and sold throughout the country.

Well-known studio photogra-pher James VanDerZee captured t h e spir i t of Har lem for more than 60 years and left an archive of more t h a n 15,000 images , i nc lud ing a 1932 pho tograph showing a prosperous middle-c lass couple in raccoon coats posed with an automobile.

"There's great street photogra-phy and portraiture," said Barr. "On the other side of the wall are Gordon Parks' portraits of Ella W a t s o n , a c l ean ing woman struggling to raise grandchildren and an adopted daughter . The first section shows daily life in homes, the Tuskegee Insti tute. There are folks playing checkers, a basebal l team. I t shows the diversity of the community, all t he different ways they lived. These are not j u s t stereotypic. There's a lot of dignity."

Many firsts were included in the success stories. Cole was one of the first black studio photog-raphers in the Cleveland area in the early 1920s. Augustus Wash-ington was the first black to own a studio in St. Paul, Minn. Flo-res t ine Per rau l t Collins broke boundaries as well. She worked in a New Orleans studio in the 1920s and '30s b u t i n i t i a l l y passed for white to work as a p h o t o g r a p h e r ' s a s s i s t a n t in 1909.

"I've learned a lot in the pro-cess of p r e p a r i n g for and i n s t a l l i n g t h i s exhib i t , " sa id Barr . "We were all waiting for Deb Willis' research to get pub-l i shed . We al l knew t h e s e African-American photographers were out there but never knew who they were."

Sec t ion two showcases t h e work of Milton Hinton, a jazz musician as well as a photogra-pher . His access to backstage and dressing rooms allowed him to make photographs where few lensmen had gone before. Hinton was in the television studio in t he 1950s with Billie Holiday and Count Bas ie and on t h e s t ree t s of Harlem with Lester Young and Roy Eldridge.

Morgan and M a r v i n S m i t h documented a concert by Ella Fi tzgerald and Chick Webb at t h e Savoy Bal l room in 1938. E r n e s t Wi the r s c a p t u r e d t h e duali ty of life in Memphis two decades later. Withers ' photo-graph of Elvis Presley and B.B. King is in sharp contrast to the reality of his image focusing on a colored waiting room sign in the 1960s.

"For a white rock 'n' roller to be seen With a black blues man was pretty unprecedented in this time," said Barr.

Times were soon to change. In 1963 the introduction of. a civil rights bill in the U.S. Senate, a week after the murder of Medgar

Faces of grief: (Left) Moneta Sleet, Jr. took this photograph of Coretta Scott King and her daughter Bernice at the funeral of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in Atlanta in 1968. The photo earned Sleet the distinc-tion of being the first African American to win the Pulitzer Prize.

Gender issues: (Bottom) Carrie Mae Weems' images tell stories while examining women's experi-ences. "Not Manet's Type" was taken in 1997.

Evers, produced a rise in socially committed photographers such as J o n a t h a n E u b a n k s , who chronicled the activities of the Black Pan the r party. Eubanks showed the Pan the r s were not just a militant organization but provided a breakfast program for ch i ld ren . Robe r t H a g g i n s humanized leaders such as Mal-colm X, before and after he was a member of the Nation of Islam, by showing him with celebrities such as Muhammad Ali.

An armless mannequin lies face down on the sidewalk as a police off icer w a l k s t h e s h a t t e r e d streets.

The story continues By the 1970s many African-

Americans began studying pho-t o g r a p h y and r e d e f i n i n g t h e image but never forgot history. They brought insight to the past and challenged viewers to relate their own experiences to the sub-

ject rpatter. Themes of identity, s p i r i t u a l i t y and f ami ly a re p r e v a l e n t in c o n t e m p o r a r y African-American photography. New approaches to portrai ture include Donald Camp's use of pigment to dissolve the image. He c r e a t e s a mys t e ry whi le speaking of the fear and distrust of men.

D e n n i s Olanzo Callwood shows the stories behind bars by i n c o r p o r a t i n g t ex t added by incarcerated teenage gang mem-bers. "n Memory of Jasmine tells of a young man locked up three times with 4-year-old son Alex.

Albert Chong incorporates old

family photos into a work then surrounds it with vibrant pink flowers.

"Contemporary African-Ameri-can photographers use a lot of i d e n t i t y i s sues . Wi th women artists, there's gender issues at play."

Bil l ie Hol iday and Bess ie Smith become the spirit of Amer-ica as Amalia Amaki t ransfers t h e i r photos onto f a b r i c and arranges them with flags. Cyn-thia Wiggins takes pride in the working hands of her grandfa-ther, a longshoreman, steelwork-er father, and brother, a mainte-nance mechanic. Bill Gask ins documen t s h a i r s tyles in t he 1990s, K a m b u i O l u j i m u and Coreen Simpson Hip Hop culture and performers.

"This exhib i t is i m p o r t a n t because Deb has knowledge of the other history. The exhibit is unprecedented not only photo-graphically but in documenting b lack c u l t u r e . No one ' s ever brought it all together before, the h i s to ry of Afr ican-Ameri -cans, their lives."

Nancy Barr will discuss the contributions of African-Ameri-cans to the history of photogra-phy as seen in works from the exhibition 6-7:30 p.m. Friday, July 6. The lecture is part of First Friday activities at the DIA.

music by commissioning works by composers Samuel Barber , Ulysses Kay, and Charles Wuori-nen. Over the years, such illus-trious musicians as Itzhak Perl-man , Jessye Norman, Leonard Bernstein, J ames Galway, and J e a n - P i e r r e R a m p a l h a v e appeared in concert.

"It had been all volunteer and now we have a ta lented staff," said Beznos, a Franklin resident who t augh t Engl ish a t Wayne Sta te University before joining t h e Chamber Music Society of Detroi t . "We jus t announced a Charitable Planned Giving Cam-paign. We're building the organi-zation to make it stronger.

"We're now sel l ing our own t i cke t s to increase t h e conve-nience for people and to keep prices lower."

And the re ' s more va r i e ty in t h e ser ies , sa id Beznos . This year , the eight-concert season spotlights the talents of violinist Joshua Bell, pianists Emmanuel Ax, Yefim Bronfman and Daniel Barenboim, the Shanghai Quar-t e t , Fleisher-Jol ley-Tree Trio, Borromeo Str ing Quar te t , and M i a m i S t r i n g Q u a r t e t a t t he Seiigman Performing Arts Cen-ter in Beverly Hills and Orches-t r a Hall in Detroit.

"It's going to be an extraordi-n a r y season , " sa id Beznos . "Daniel Barenboim hasn ' t been in this area for decades. He per-forms very few recitals because he ' s conductor of t he Chicago Symphony. There's lots of lead-

up activities. He's a spokesper-son for the Middle East so we're contacting local Jews and Arabs and creating a dialogue. We're reaching into areas of the com-munity we haven't before.

"Some of the other highlights are Joshua Bell; he's a fabulous violinist. The Emmanuel Ax and Yefim B r o n f m a n concert we'll have two stars performing. If we had either it would be wonderful but to have both and to do rarely heard two piano repertoire."

Beznos is encouraging cham-ber music lovers not to wait to purchase tickets. Subscriptions for the eight-concert series range from $158 to $482 for box seats at Orchestra 'Hall and on stage seating at the Seiigman Center.

"I'm not sure everyone's aware how important this is to have in t he i r neighborhood and not to wa i t . The bes t s e a t s go f i r s t . We've already gone beyond last year ' s to ta l subscr ipt ion sales a n d t h e b r o c h u r e s were j u s t mailed," said Beznos.

"I love t h e m u s i c and t h e Chamber Music Society is the 10th oldest such organization in the U.S. (recognized by Chamber Music America) with one of the largest subscript ion bases. I t ' s important for metro area audi-ences who long to hear the music performed live."

"The reason I w a n t e d to go Was to experience all of the dif-ferent cultures and languages," said Jessica Maxer. "I especially want to go to Venice because it's on t he w a t e r and to h e a r t he Italian language."

Reasons for going vary from an opportunity to meet cute foreign boys to C h r i s t o p h e r M u m a w wan t ing to get "away from my p a r e n t s and b r o t h e r s for two weeks," but all agree this is the chance of a l i f e t ime . Mel i s sa Wafer is especially looking for-ward to the end of the trip when she, her mother and sister travel to Greece to visit relat ives for the first time.

"It's nice because kids get the o p p o r t u n i t y to s h a r e t h e i r music ," said Lucius who took over as band director in 1989. This is his second tour with the s tuden t s . "Many of these kids may never get the opportunity to go back. They spend t h e vas t majority of their education read-ing about it. These kids have the expe r i ence .

In Germany, kids don't study music dur ing the day. We talk about the differences on the trip. But my favorite part is watching the kids experience these new sur-roundings, the incredibly beauti-fu l se t t ing t h a t they tour and perform in. The Swiss Alps are t h e most b e a u t i f u l t h i n g I 've ever seen - having the kids stroll in the market place in Salzburg and visit Mozart's home, just to wa t ch t h e m grow before your eyes and learn."

Sweeping history of Detroit tells story of triumph, hope This i s Detroit: 1701-2001 By Arthur M. Woodford Wayne State University Press, $49.95

BY HUGH GALLAGHER STAFF WRITER hgal [email protected]

"This is Detroit" is the last in a series of Detroit histories from the Wayne State Press to cele-brate the city's tricentennial, fol-lowing the timeline "Detroit in its World Setting" and the richly illustrated "Frontier Metropolis: P ic tu r ing Ear ly Detroit , 1701-1838."

Woodford , a p ro fes s iona l librarian, writes an easy-to-read survey of the city's history, actu-ally beginning well before the French establ ished a strategic post on the bend of the Detroit River. The large format provides for scores of pictures, including two a t t r a c t i v e color sections. Woodford's purpose in recogni-tion of the city's anniversary is to show Detroit's importance to the military, political, economic and cultural history of the coun-try.

Any history of Detroit is really a history of southeast Michigan, which slowly spread out from the core c i ty . It is a h i s t o r y of a d iverse popula t ion which has known both fierce combat and monumental cooperation.

Woodford a r r anges h is book both chronologically and by sub-ject, focusing on different aspects of t h e c i ty such as i t s e thnic diversi ty, racial divisions and t r i u m p h s , t h e a l l i m p o r t a n t automobile industry and cultural contributions.

We a r e al l f a m i l i a r wi th Detroi t ' s recent his tory. Since the 1967 riot, the city has been p l a g u e d by economic decl ine caused by the movement of mid-dle-class wttite res idents from the city and the pull out of major retail, office and industrial busi-ness; a frightening crime rate; a decaying physical presence; and a general sense of urban despair.

Upbeat view Woodford doesn't flinch from

discussing these things, but his purpose is not to make a deep ana lys i s of w h a t happened or why. In the spirit of an anniver-sary book, Woodford concludes on the upbeat, noting the devel-opments in the Fox enter ta in-ment area, Compuware a t Cam-pus M a r t i u s and the Cul tura l Center; the steep drop in crime with the improved '90s economy; and a more positive suburban-u r b a n a l l i a n c e s ince Denn i s Archer became mayor.

But it isn't recent history that makes the book most interesting or valuable. It is instead the rich his tory t h a t has brought us to this point. This is such an attrac-tive and easy to read book that it would serve well as a text for a high school course in local histo-ry.

People have been living in the Det ro i t a r e a for t housands of years. When the French began e x p l o r i n g t h i s a r e a , s eve ra l Na t ive Amer ican t r i be s were h u n t i n g a n d m e e t i n g in the Detroit area.

THE BOOK LIST

The f i rs t major French mili-tary settlement was on Mackinac I s l and . But Anto ine Cadi l lac decided i t was i m p o r t a n t to es tab l i sh a p e r m a n e n t se t t le -ment in a more hospitable area and he chose the advantageous area where the strait (le Detroit in French) connecting Lake Erie w i th Lake St . C la i r m a k e s a bend.

French tradition It was the French who began

f a r m i n g on "r ibbon" f a r m s -long, narrow property, each hav-ing a front on the river. Follow-ing i h e F r e n c h - I n d i a n W a r , Bri t ish flags flew over Detroit and the small but strategically well-placed town grew slowly.

Detroit became an American town a f t e r t he Revo lu t ionary War. This section of Woodford's account is enlivened by pain t -ings, drawings, photos of ar t i -facts and maps.

Steam-powered boats and the advance work of Michigan's pre-eminent 19th Century political figure, Lewis Cass, helped bring new settlers to the bend in the river, where land was abundant. Though opinions of Cass as a national figure differ, Woodford notes his singular importance to the history of Michigan as politi-cal leader and cheerleader for settlement.

Life for settlers wasn't always easy. There were several cholera plagues and a devastating fire in 1805 completely destroyed the frontier development, leading to a r e b u i l d i n g and a r e d e s i g n , tfudge Augustus Woodward laid out a plan for the city based on Washington, D.C., involving a pa t te rn of streets built around circles. Though eventually aban-doned, the plan is still visible in the lay out of downtown Detroit. Woodford catalogues the chang-ing ci ty l ayou t w i t h s e v e r a l interesting maps.

Before the Civil War, Detroit

e s tab l i shed i tself as a crucial stop on the Underground Rail-r o a d , moving f u g i t i v e s l aves across the river to Canada. Dur-ing the war, Detroit and Michi-gan were among the first to vol-un tee r for service a t Lincoln's call. On the other hand, Detroit's Irish rose up and rioted in 1863 to protest the conscription law (as they did in New York). Wood-ford is careful about establishing the long history of racial prob-lems in the city.

Arsenal of democracy Det ro i t ' s i m p o r t a n c e to t h e

na t ion grew following the war and the development of Detroit a s a m a j o r i n d u s t r i a l s i te , because of its central location on the lakes and its access to natu-r a l r e s o u r c e s . I t was no t by chance tha t Detroit became the auto capital of the world. Wood-ford does a fine job of outlining t h e h i s t o r y of De t ro i t ' s most impor tant indus t ry in the con-text of its industrial background:

Detroit, of course, became crit-ical to the country's war efforts in World Wars I and II as the "Arsenal of Democracy."

Woodford also chronicles the efforts of workers to achieve eco-nomic justice in a chapter on the development of unions, particu-larly the UAW. Another chapter tells the history of African-Amer-icans ' efforts to win social and economic justice.

Other chapters deal with the city's passion for all sports and i t s m a n y c h a m p i o n s a n d t h e city's cultural achievements dat-. ing f rom t h e e s t eemed Opera House built in 1868 (and once the first home of J .L. Hudson's s t o r e ) to t h e d o m i n a n c e of Motown in the popular music of the 1960s.

I t 's nice to be reminded tha t we live in an in teres t ing place w i t h a g r e a t p a s t and a s t i l l promising future.

MALLS & MAINSTREETS

Mall web site lets shoppers know about weekly sales

CYBER SHOP

CARI WALDMAN

E v e r wish you could f ind out what's on sale at the mall before actually se t t i ng foot in t h e door?

I took a t r i p to w w w . g r e a t l a k e -scrossing.com, t h e web s i t e of G r e a t L a k e s Cross ing , a more than 1-million-squa re - foo t shop-p i n g cen te r t h a t houses outlet stores

and e n t e r t a i n m e n t and d in ing venues in Auburn Hills.

There, I found out I could do just that by browsing the site's sale list-ings from more t h a n 200 retai lers and a whole lot more.

The site, which is easy to use and unclut tered, is pa r t shopping and part service.

With so much to do, and so little time to shop, come along on my tour of www.greatlakescrossing.com.

Download this When I accessed the site for the

first time, I wasn't a greatlakescross-ing.com member.

The member service is a compli-mentary one, so I created a password for myself and registered for two site benefits bound to make my life - and any avid shopper's - easier.

The first benefit is a weekly e-mail bulletin that posts sales, new mer-chandise and promotions available at Great Lakes Crossing.

What I think is great about the e-mail bulletin is it's a custom service. When signing up, I selected the mall stores which I want sale information about. In other words, no extra junk mail on my desk top.

And, right now, those who sign up for the e-mail bulletin will be regis-tered to win a shopping spree give-away. Each week for the next four weeks Great Lakes Crossing will hand over $1,000 in gift certificates to a site member registered for the e-mail bulletin.

I also signed up for the gift-giving r e m i n d e r service. Here , I s imply t y p e d in s igni f icant da t e s t h a t I want to be notified about.

The site will send me reminder e-mails two weeks in advance of the significant date, so not only will I never forget another bir thday but also have plenty of time to shop for it. It's like having a personal shopper at my finger tips. I love this feature!

Navigate A clever search engine offers you

several ways to search for a sale. Sales and bargains can be found

t h rough a store name or by mer-chandise categories, such as elec-tronics, shoes or jewelry.

By clicking on "View All Current Coupons," a thumbnai l list of bar-gains being offered by mall stores can be viewed. The coupons can be printed to take to the mall.

Available this week with a coupon is a f ree pretzel at Aunt ie Anne's Pretzels, a free appetizer at Game Works and a free gift at the DKNY outlet.

Wireless users of the Internet can browse Great Lakes Crossing's web site of a Palm hand-held device or cell phone. The Pa lm V uses t he A v a n t G o web browser , which is available at AvantGo.com. And Palm VII u s e r s can download t h e web browser directly from the mall's web site.

Suiting women: Debbie McKeown, a manager and suit fitter for Exelnt Designs Swimwear, talks about how the company's handmade swimsuits helps women hide figure flaws and showcase their best features. With retail loca-tions in West Bloomfield and Warren, the business offers both ready-to-wear and custom bathing suits.

There i sn ' t a woman on the p lane t who doesn ' t dread t h a t fateful search for a bathing suit.

"It's the worst thing a woman has to do," says Debbie McKeown, a m a n a g e r a n d su i t f i t t e r for Exe ln t Des igns Swimwear , a local business tha t makes custom bathing suits. The company also has two retail stores, one in West Bloomfield in The Boardwalk on Orchard Lake Road and another in Warren.

"Most women come in and say 'I want something up to my chin

and down to my knees , ' " says McKeown.

Bu t j u s t as s p o r t s w e a r and career apparel has evolved to bet-t e r a d d r e s s the concerns and lifestyles of average women so has swim wear.

Long gone are the days when the two pieces of a bikini were exclusively sold as one unit.

Today, women in search of two-piece swimwear expect depart-ment stores and specialty retail-ers to stock separates in a variety of sizes and styles for mixing and matching.

Swimwear in West Bloomfield, which opened last December, not only stocks a generous selection

of bikini separates but also cre-ates bathing sui ts from scratch according to customer specifica-tions.

Cus tom su i t s r a n g e in price from $100 to $180 and are ready to pick up between 10 days and two weeks after placing an order.

Swimwear designer and owner of E x e l n t D e s i g n s S w i m w e a r Trish Karalla, who lives in Harri-son Township, s tar ted the busi-n e s s in 1984 a f t e r m a k i n g a bathing suit for herself.

"I jus t couldn't find a suit for myself so I made one. Then, my gir l f r iends wanted me to make su i t s for them," says Kara l l a . "Eventual ly , i t j u s t got to t he

Suit sense • Try on a size larger than you normally wear. • Keep in mind what you'll be doing in your swimsuit. Are you planning to sun bathe or are you

racing after kids at the beach? • Bend over, sit, walk and even jump when trying on a bathing suit to make sure it fits and stays in

place. • Take advantage of mix-and-match separates and special sizing. • Get a second opinion before buying a bathing suit. • Invest in a sarong or skirt to go with your suit. • Suits with spandex, 15 percent or more, help battle problem areas. • To distract from wide hips or a larger belly, buy a suit with a strategically placed color block. • If you're bigger on the bottom than the top, wide-set straps offset wide hips. • Enhance a smaller chest with a top that has texture, such as ruffles, padding or an underwire. • Minimize a larger chest with a neck cut that is high or square, but always opt for good top sup-

port. • A wider cut bottom will counterbalance a larger top. • Give short legs length with a suit cut high on the hip. • Boyish figures seem to have a waist in suits with , a thin belt, wrap front or color blocking that

accents the waist.

point where I was spending every e v e n i n g c u t t i n g and m a k i n g suits."

Because the majority of women find suit shopping difficult and so many go home d issa t i s f ied , Karalla says her work is extreme-ly gratifying. "I always say God p u t me on t h e e a r t h to m a k e women feel good in a swimsuit."

And all of Karalla 's designs -not jus t her custom garments -a r e cons t ruc ted w i th women 's body concerns in mind.

All pieces are lined with a con-trol fabric and have bottoms tha t are cut fuller around the derriere.

Many styles have under-wire support on top. Other designs fea-ture wide-set straps to offset wide hips and bottom cuts that length-en and slim legs.

P lea t ing and wrap styles a r e used to h ide body flaws, whi le s e a m s work to accen tua te t h e female form.

Kara l la also offers a sarong, wrap or cover-up piece for each of her suit collections.

Ready-to-wear pieces are priced $66-137, and s tore s taff , much like traditional undergarment fit-ters, take an active role in help-ing customers select and try on suits.

On the rocks: Part of what is considered the gateway to the Rocky Mountains is the Garden of the Gods, which offers visitors an almost-desert-like land-scape.

M The Mile High City has a variety of cultural, athletic and entertainment venues reflecting Its historical trans-formation from frontier town to modern city of commerce.

A Rocky Mountain

high Enchanted view: The natural beauty of central Colorado, which includes ML Princeton (elevation 14,197 feet) on the outskirts ofBuena Vista, is approximately 100 miles west of Colorado Springs.

Colorado's breathtaking views seem endless year-round B Y DON SCHELSKE STAFF WHITER

[email protected]

The mountains really appear to be purple.

When Katharine Lee Bates visited Colorado's Pike's Peak, she was inspired to write of the "purple mountain majesties" and other beauties of creation in the song, America the Beautiful. Each year, thousands of travel-ers discover the sensation of hav-ing their heads in the clouds while their feet are firmly plant-ed on the ground.

In the 1-25 corridor between Denver and Colorado Springs, both scenic and manmade attractions form the gateway to the Rocky Mountains. It's an area where frontier traditions and modern amenities seem to have mixed well.

Known as the "mile high city" — an elevation of 5,280 feet, for those who remember from school — Denver has its own attrac-tions, but is nowhere near the pinnacle for sightseers. Colorado Springs is a bit higher at 5,980

feet. Both pale in comparison with Pike's Peak, however, and other "points" of interest known collectively as "the Fourteeners," so named for their elevation of more than 14,000 square feet.

A trip to the top of Pike's Peak is made possible either by motor vehicle (with many advisories concerning potential damage by excessive braking or use of air conditioning) or by the Pikes Peak Cog Railway (a 3.5-hour round trip that includes a great view of the landscape and moun-tain wildlife). Regardless of the mode of transportation, travelers are strongly advised to brace for lower temperatures and thinner air at the summit. Drinking lots of water at the top helps make up for the lack of oxygen in the air.

Those not quite as adventur-ous can still enjoy a view of the heights without going all the way up. Several roads have been given "scenic" designation, and driving tour options are numer-ous. A loop of sorts is created by US-285 out of Denver connects

with US-24 out of Colorado Springs. Along the latter are roadside turnouts allowing a great view of the "collegiate peaks" such as Mt. Harvard, Mt. Yale, Mt. Princeton, etc. The small town of Buena Vista is a pleasant place to stop, or motorists may choose to turn off onto a county road that leads up to the Continental Divide.

Tip: Many scenic drives carry cautions such as "weather per-mitting" or "falling rock zones," so plan alternate routes in advance.

US-24 also leads to the town of Cripple Creek, home of an aban-doned vertical-shaft gold mine that gives tours and free ore samples which, if melted in a ceramic kiln, will likely yield a couple grams of the good stuff. The town itself, once a thriving center of commerce when prospectors filled the area, now lures tourists with a different kind of temptation to strike it rich; virtually the entire central business district has been con-verted into casinos.

If you're going. S Planning ahead takes on new meaning for Rocky

Mountain country. Expect cooler temperatures in higher elevations, and be sure your vehicle is prepared if you plan mountain driving. In addition to potential problems from heavy braking and use of air conditioning, some roads may be closed because of weather or falling rocks. Have alternative routes at the ready.

• If traveling by car, Denver is accessible via 1-76 from 1-80. If a more southerly cross-country route is desired, I-70 to US-24 will lead to Colorado Springs. Air travelers can fly into either Denver International Airport or Col-orado Springs Airport. Commercial bus lines serve both cities, while rail travel is possible to Denver only.

• Because the area is also a Mecca for skiers, there are two brief "off seasons."

Lower lodging prices tend to be available in early spring and late fall.

• More information is available from the Colorado Springs Convention & Visitors Center, 104 S. Cascade, Sui te 104, Colorado Sp r ings , CO 80903 (www.eol-oradosprings-travel.com); the Pikes Peak Country Attrac-tions Association, 354 Manitou Ave., Manitou Springs, CO 80829 (www.pikes-peak.com); and the Denver Metro., Convention & Visitors Bureau, 1668 Larimer St., Denver, CO 80202 (www.denver.org/visitors).

Other places of natural beauty include Garden of the Gods, a 1,300-acre park allowing tourists free access to a place where the Great Plains meet the Rockies. Red sandstone formations are the focus of awe for most, but a variety of flora and fauna pro-vide diversity to the landscape.

The Rocky Mountain National Park has a visitors center north-west of Denver, serving as a

gateway to some 365,700 acres of natural beauty.

Those looking for more urban attractions can be well served by destinations such as the U.S. Air Force Academy near Colorado Springs. In addition to seeing cadets in close order drill at vari-ous times of the day, the campus chapel is a place for both spiritu-al reflection and architectural admiration.

In Denver, a visit to the U.S. Mint is offered free of charge, with historical displays accom-panied by a look at how coins are stamped by modern presses. The Mile High City has a variety of cultural, athletic and entertain-ment venues reflecting its histor-ical transformation from frontier town to modern center of com-merce.

Focus ON WINE

RAY & ELEANOR HEALD

Winemaker travels back to the future In vintage 2000, Napa Valley's

Robert Mondavi winery literally went back to the future in a new state-of-the-art winery.

Several years ago, Michael Mondavi, president and CEO of the family win-ery, and his brother Tim, managing director and winegrower, discussed updating their flagship winery in the heart of California's Napa Valley.

Built in 1966 by their father Robert, as the first winery in the world com-mitted to using stainless steel fermen-tors, and expanded in 1968 to make 50,000 cases annually, it was operating at 10 times that.

The visitor center originally con-structed to greet 50,000 guests, was hosting 450,000 annually. Expansion of every aspect at the Oakville winery was not possible. Since it was most obsolete, the Mondavis agreed to redo the fermentation facility and to concen-

trate on upgrad-ing its 550-acre To Kalon vine-yard, surround-ing the present-day Robert Mon-davi Winery.

They named these efforts, begun in 1999, as the To Kalon Project.

"We assessed what was needed in order to have the best red wine fermentation facility in the world," Michael explained. "From observations at our Byron Estate Winery, Opus One and Chateau Mou-ton-Rothschild in Bordeaux, we decided to go

back to the future and begin to ferment our best red wines in oak fermentors."

Tim insisted there was a difference in red wines fermented in oak, rather than in stainless steel. Michael remained skeptical so Tim organized a tasting of several experimental caber-net sauvignons, where the only vari-able was the fermentor. The oak-fer-mented wines were more pleasing with better mouthfeel.

Oak upright fermentors are estheti-cally beautiful, cost 50 percent more than a stainless steel tank of the same size, but from a qualitative point of view, the Mondavis believe they give red wines a softness and elegance that sets them apart. From our tasting, we agree. As young red wines, they have a richer mouthfeel with greater flavor, complexity and intensity, yet delicate finish.

The changeover Crafted by Tonnellerie Taransaud in

Cognac, 56 French oak upright 5,000-gallon capacity fermentors were disas-sembled and shipped to the U.S.

In the summer of 2000, a team of 14 French coopers took three weeks to reassemble the oak uprights in the new Robert Mondavi Winery for first use in vintage 2000.

French oak uprights function simi-larly to a barrel, without adding oak character to the wine. Even though they are toasted inside, they do not add a toasty or a vanilla character, but do promote greater complexity &nd better integration of tannins. Grapes ferment-ed in the new oak upright fermentors in vintage 2000 came from To Kalon, the Mondavis prized cabernet sauvi-gnon vineyard, which has significant firm grape tannins.

Tim considers the oak a perfect match.

However, innovation is not without risk and the biggest with oak fermen-tors is sanitation. It is the reason pro-

Whether you're a seasoned sushi connoisseur or still mustering up the courage

to consume your first tuna roll, the idea of preparing the bite size Japanese food at home seems a bit far-fetched.

With its bright colors, delicate size and ingenious presentation, sushi has the intimidating power of fine art. But just because it looks difficult to make, doesn't mean it is.

Having reached that very real-ization, an increasing number sushi lovers are purchasing the necessary tools and ingredients for home preparation, says Guc-chi Takayuki, general manager at Noble Fish, a sushi bar and Japanese market in Clawson where the average lunch crowd exceeds 100 diners.

"They eat here for a while, then finally they buy the ingredients and make their own," says Takayuki.

Beyond the cost savings, making sushi at home is good, clean - the sticky rice can be awful messy -fun.

A growing trend among Takayuki's customers is the sushi party, which allows family and friends to get together in the kitchen and prepare their own meal or appetizer.

As with all cooking, there are techniques for mak-ing sushi and, as they say, practice makes perfect. "Try often," jokes Takayuki. "That's the best rule."

But Takayuki is quick to dismiss the idea that sushi need attain a level of aesthetic appeal to be savored.

"Don't worry," he says. "It if falls apart, just enjoy making it and eating it."

If there's an attitude to take with sushi, it's a lighthearted one, he says. After all, the food is asso-ciated with revelry and merrymaking in his coun-try. "In Japan, sushi is a celebration food. When somebody dies, we don't eat sushi. When some-thing bad happens, we don't eat sushi. Sushi is to enjoy. That's what it's all about."

Raw fish for sushi • Fish that is eaten raw

as sushi must be prepared from fish that has been out of the water no longer than 24 hours.

• Characteristics of fresh fish include: bright, clear and full eyes; bright red gi l ls: bright sheen on scales; firm or rigid body when pressed with fingers; elastic flesh that does not separate from bones or indent; sweet taste; and cucumber-like odor.

• Signs f i sh is old include: strong or "fishy" ddor; milky or sullen eyes; muddy, gray scales; blem-ishes on scales or a slimy surface; red patches on ventral area; leathery appearance; and yellowing, browning or drying of flesh.

pared in a tube or in powder form to mix with water, and sweet pickled ginger, which can be purchased at an Asian market.

And though you probably won't find a bamboo rolling mat at your neighborhood supermarket, many sushi ingredients are stocked in the Asian foods section of large grocery stores.

When using raw fish, you must have no doubt what you're purchasing is fresh and suitable for sushi. And a fish market or fish monger is probably the best place from which to make your pur-chase. Raw fish in sushi has been removed from the water 24 hours ago or less. Again, if you have any doubts, don't eat the fish in raw form. You can always use cooked fish in sushi.

Also, don't use fresh water species. It's not used in sushi because of the possible pres-

SUSHI FILLINGS

Before technique comes shopping

The best place to start is probably an Asian mar-ket like Noble Fish where you can purchase both the ingredients and the tools you'll need to make sushi at home.

Noble Fish also sells a sushi cookbook (Quick & Easy Sushi by Heihachiro Tohyama and Yukiko Moriyama. $19.95) with recipes, instructions and illustrations.

Required tools and ingredients are a bamboo mat to roll the sushi, short grain Japanese sushi rice, rice wine vinegar, nori seaweed sheets and fillings for your sushi.

Sushi chefs work with a special sushi knife, but Takayuki B a y s a chef knife will do the job.

Sushi accouterments include soy sauce (the type used in any Asian cooking will suffice), wasabi paste, a spicy horseradish that comes already pre-

• California roll - Strips of imitation crab, about 174 inch in width cut the same length as nori, 1/8 inch slices of avocado and thin strips of cucumber

• Tuna roll or salmon rolls - cut fillet into strips about 1/2 inch in width and same length as nori; spread wasabi paste along center strip of rice (along length of nori) before placing fish

• Oshinko roll - Pickled daikon radish cut into 3/8 inch thick circular strips the same length as nori

S Variations without raw fish recommended by Noble Fish include: whole cooked shrimp, smoked salmon, ham strips with asparagus tips, and assorted fresh vegetables alone or combined with strips of tofu or cooked omelet

ence of parasites.

In the kitchen The next step is preparing your rice and

sushi fillings. What's crucial here is how the rice is prepared and handled.

Generally speaking, ingredients for sushi are cut into long strips. If you're including raw fish, ask your fish monger to prepare each fillet for use in sushi.

Before cooking rice, wash it in a big bowl of water, rubbing grains gently. Drain off the water and repeat this step until the water is almost clear.

In general, equal amounts of rice and water are sufficient when cooking sushi rice, but preparing two cups rather than one is prefer-able. And while an automatic Japanese rice cooker is ideal, a Dutch oven or pot with a fit-ted lid and good heat distribution will do the

job. Just be sure to

carefully measure rice and water and allow your rice to sit for 30 minutes in the summer and an hour in the win-ter before cooking (For detailed instructions, see Cooking Sushi Rice and Preparing Rice for Sushi).

Ready to roll When all your

ingredients are ready, set them out in containers near a clean, dry work sur-face. Since sushi rice is sticky and difficult to handle, fill a small bowl with ice water and

mix in about a tablespoon of rice wine vine-gar. After handling rice, dip fingers into the bowl to remove rice and clean hands.

The sushi chefs at Noble Fish also cover their bamboo rolling mats with plastic wrap

Once only grown in India, mangoes now are enjoyea Worldwide LIVING

SENSIBLY

Mangoes have been cultivated in India for more than 4,000 years. The Indi-ans believe that the mango tree was born from the ashes of the sun god's daughter.

The Por-tuguese were the first Euro-

peans to discover the fruit and translated its Tamil name from mankay to manga. They intro-duced the mango tree into Africa during the 16th century.

BEVERLY PRICE

From there, the tree made its way to Brazil and Mexico and t h e n to the southern United States where production grew quite high.

Enjoy them fresh Today, the mango is the third

most frequently consumed fruit in the world and is considered an exotic species. Although they once required specific climatic and cultural conditions, selective breeding and new techniques allows consumers to enjoy fresh mangoes.

Mangoes present themselves in a wide variety of colors. The

Indian Langra are jade-colored, the Romani are rose, the Ameri-can Haden are purple, and the Sandersasha are speckled with gray. In Jamaica, they are black. The fruit's tough multicol-ored skin protects the sweet, juicy pulp, colored yellow or orange. The flesh surrounds a large, flat, fibrous pit, which smells like turpentine.

This juicy fruit will be easier to peel if refrigerated before peeling.

Green mangoes can be pickled^ in vinegar or dried to be used in making Amchui powder which is a sour seasoning. One of the finest pleasures of Michigan is

Wine from page D1

Queers around the world discon-tinued their use decades ago. If

fermentors are not cleaned | n d dried properly after each fermentation, unwanted bacteri-

growth will make the vessel for future use.

• ;Tim explained, "In the late 1960s and the beginning of the ftiodern California winemaking era, the pendulum swung to technology, rather than the art of winemaking. I don't want

winemaking to become a formu-la. If all the mystery is removed from winemaking, it won't be as much fun."

Red wines fermented in oak taste better because oak is a nat-ural, inert material that acts as a good insulator. A gentler wine-making sys t em al lows for a longer, warmer maceration, which in turn, allows for greater extraction due to increased enzy-matic activity. Mondavi's wine-

making techniques have evolved from repression of faul ts in stainless steel fermentors, to enhancement of virtue with oak fermentors.

Mangoes are high in potassi-um, which is good for blood presr sure control, along with vitamin A that can help protect you against chronic disease such as cancer, diabetes and heart dis-ease.

Cut 'em up Pat Covert,. a registered dieti-

tian with Integrated Nutrition in Farmington Hills, enjoys man-

„goes, cutt ing them up wi th .pineapple, bananas, apples or grapes. Her allergies prevent her

from eating much of it. Barbara Beznos, a registered

dietitian with Integrated Nutri-tion, said fruit has been swept to the wayside because of fad diets, but she recommends fruits like mangoes. "They are satisfying and they consist of vitamins like A, C and Beta carotenoids, min-erals like potassium and won-derful fiber," Beznos said.

For varieties, Beznos hears "buzz words" like Irwin, Haden, Keitt, Kent, and Atkins.

Beznos suggests cutting the fruit in half, peeling it, and slic-ing around the large seed. Avoid buying the ones with bruises

and smell them to check for a wonderful fragrance. "Refriger-ate it because it will be ripe," Beznos said. "It is easy to be imaginative with mangoes in your cooking.

"Use them in fruit salads, par-faits, vegetable salads, smooth-ies, sorbets, pies, fruit salads, chutneys , sa lsa , and warm grains."

Cook, then prepare, rice for sushi.. COOKING SUSHI RICE

2 cups sushi rice (yields 5 cups rice)

2 cups water

Cook rice over medium heat until water boils, but do not bring rice to boiling point quickly.

After boiling is reached, turn heat to high and cook 1 minute. Do not lift lid while cooking.

Turn heat to low and cook 4-5 minutes.

Reduce heat to lowest setting for 10 minutes of cooking.

Turn off heat and let rice stand

for 10 minutes.

PREPARE RICE FOR SUSHI

(VINEGAR MIXTURE)

3-1/2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar

1 tablespoon sugar

1-1/2 teaspoon sait

, 9

Combine ingredients to make vinegar mixture.

Prepare a non-metallic tub or large bowl, preferably made of wood or glass, in which to toss rice and vinegar mixture. Make

sure bowl is dry.

Put rice in bowl and spread evenly over the bottom.

Sprinkle vinegar mixture over rice, keeping in mind you need not use all of the liquid.

Mix rice and liquid with large wooden spoon, using slicing motion. While mixing, direct wind from an electric fan towards rice, which removes extra liquid and helps puff the rice.

Keep rice in bowl covered with a moist rag until ready to use.

...and roll it up for a special dish ROLLING SUSHI

Bamboo rolling mat Nori, dried seaweed in

sheets Prepared sushi rice Fillings such as strips of imi-

tation crab, raw fish, tofu and fresh vegetables according to preference

Place mat on work surface in its rolling direction. Cut nori in half, lengthwise about 4-by-7

inches and place half sheet on the mat, shiny side down with edge reaching end of mat closest to you.

Put sushi rice on nori and spread evenly. Rice should be about 1/8 inch in thickness across the nori. Leave an inch width of nori uncovered along both front and back edges.

Place fillings in center of rice in horizontal direction. Place differ-ent fillings side by side, rather than piling them up.

Begin rolling by lifting mat

edge closest to you, placing thumbs underneath the mat and fingers over the top. Use fingers to "tuck" the roll into a circle and press rice around the fillings. Lightly squeeze roll to secure con-tents. Roll mat over once more. Use index fingers to press down on top of roll in the center. Then use thumbs and index fingers to slightly squeeze in the outer ends of the roll.

Unwrap the mat and cut sushi into pieces. Repeat until desired number of rolls are made.

Sushi from page D1

grooves. When you're ready, simply

follow the step-by-step instruc-tions for assembling sushi (see Rolling Sushi).

The number of ingredients and proportions depend on individual preference. Just keep in mind you'll need to roll all the fillings and rice inside the seaweed sheet to form a horizontal tube. The roll should feel tight and fairly dense.

Cut each roll as you go for placement on a sushi plate or f lat serving platter. Make

clean, single cuts, not a sawing motion when cutting sushi.

Rolls should be cut into six or eight pieces depending on their circumference or overall size. Cut each roll in half first. Then cut each half into either three or four pieces.

Garnish with a side of sweet pickled ginger, a dab of wasabi paste and small dish of soy sauce.

When serving sushi as an appetizer, figure three to four pieces, or a single roll, per per-son.

As a main course, three sushi rolls should be prepared for each diner.

Brew a pot of green tea from Japan, set your table with chopsticks and partake in the sushi experience at home. It's a tradition, celebration and art.

Even if your sushi is less than artful, the light, fresh, clean flavors of rice, seaweed, raw fish and vegetables, along with the spicy kick qf wasabi, make for a perfect palatal sen-sation in the summer heat.

Garden City Hospital Garden City Hospital announced

that its MedStop Clinic facility on Ply-mouth Road in Livonia will become part of the provider network of Mid-west Health Center. Med Stop has been owned and operated by the hospi-tal since 1988, providing family prac-tice, urgent care and occupational med-icine services to area residents and businesses.

Midwest Health Center, headquar-tered in Dearborn, operates several health care facilities and an HMO (Midwest Health Plan). It serves Detroit, western Wayne County and the Downriver areas. The Livonia loca-tion will be called Midwest Health Center - Livonia. 9

"For both organizations the timing could not have been better," said Mark Safar, owner of Midwest. "With,our experience in occupational medicine and Garden City Hospital's recently expanded emergency department, we should be able to provide an improved occupational medicine service to employers in the Livonia area."

Bee sting allergies According to the American College of

Asthma, Allergy and Immunology one to two percent of the population will suffer an allergic reaction to an insect sting. The reaction is characterized by hives, itching and swelling in areas other than the sting site; tightness in the chest and difficulty in breathing; dizziness or a sharp drop in blood pres-sure; unconsciousness or cardiac arrest.

An allergic reaction can occur min-utes after the sting and can be life-threatening. Immediate medical atten-tion is required and may involve the administration of certain drugs and in some cases intravenous fluids, oxygen and other treatments. Because there is a 60 percent likelihood of a recurrence upon re-sting, allergic patients should seek follow-up care from an allergist.

However, there i s good news for the 2 million Americans who suffer from potentially life-threatening allergic reactions and the crippling fear associ-ated with them.

The specialist may prescribe an insect sting kit for emergency treat-ment and/or immunotherapy, a highly effective vaccination program for life-long protection against allergic reac-tions. A study recently published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology showed that mo t people allergic to insect stings who undergo a two-year vaccination program will have a permanent loss of allergy.

National Institutes of Health has new guidelines for

CHOLESTEROL MANAGEMENT BY REN^E SKOGLUND

S T A F F W R I T E R

[email protected]

Just when you thought you had the numbers right, they go and change them. We're talking cholesterol - the good, the bad and the down-

right ugly. New guidelines recently published by the National

Cholesterol Education Program are expected to sub-stantially increase the number of Americans being treated for high cholesterol, raising the number on dietary treatment from about 52 million to about 65 million and ^creasing the number prescribed a cho-lesterol-lowering drug from about 13 million to about 36 million.

The new guidelines, summarized in a report known as the Adult Treatment Panel (ATP) III, are the filst major update from NCEP in nearly a decade.

To understand cholesterol, think of it in terms of "good" and "bad." High-density lipoprotein, or HDL, is the "good" cholesterol that sweeps through arter-ies, flushing out debris in its wake; low-density lipoprotein, or LDL, is the "bad" cholesterol, respon-sible for plaque buildup and blood clots. The higher your HDL number and the lower your LDL, the bet-ter your future of living with a healthy heart.

ATP III guidelines have lowered the desirable lev-els of LDLs. Even young, healthy people whose total cholesterol is less than 200 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) should not have an LDL level above 160 mg/dL.

The guidelines recommend that all adults over 20 have a 12-hour fasting cholesterol test. The fasting test is also recommended for anyone whose total cholesterol is over 200 and/or whose HDL is below 40.

Not pretty To visualize the impact of LDL, consider this defi-

nition:

• 'Americans need to act now to prevent that future heart attack or heart dis-ease itself. Every risk fac-tor needs to be treated^"

-Dr. James Cleman NCEP coordinator

"An LDL is the little particle in the blood that con-tains cholesterol. That particle infiltrates the wall of the artery. The cells injest those particles, swell and create the arteriosclerotic plaque. And when the cells rup-ture, the fatty material is just sit-ting there. It's not a pretty pic-ture," said Dr. Mllvyn Rubenfire, professor of internal medicine and director of Preventative Cardiology at the University of Michigan Hospital.

For doctors, total cho-lesterol is no longer the most significant factor in assessing a patient's risk for heart disease, said Rubenfire. "We're focusing on the LDL. If the risk of a coronary event is 2 per-cent a year or 20 percent over a ten-year period, you start treating people whose LDL is over 130"

Americans at high risk for a heart attack often go unidentified and don't receive aggressive treatment, said Dr. Claude Lenfant, director of the National Heart,

Lung and Blood Institute, which coordinates the National Cholesterol Education Program.

"Yet, studies show conclusively that lowering the level of LDL, the 'bad' cholesterol, can reduce the short-term risk for heart disease by as much as 40 percent," he said. "Treatment may lower risk over the long-term, beyond 10 years and even more. That's why, while the intensity of treatment in ATP III is stepped up, its primary aim remains squarely on lowering LDL."

Assessing risks "The ATP III approach looks at 'overall' risk for a

heart attack, which means in the short and long term," said Dr. James Cleman, NCEP coordinator. "That's important because, although risk typically increases with age, the foundation for heart disease

is often laid in adolescence and early adult-hood. So Americans need to act now to pre-vent that future heart attack or heart dis-ease itself. Every risk factor needs to be treated."

The quidelines urge physicians to: • Treat high tholesterol more

aggressively for those with dia-betes. Besides their very high short-term risk for having a coronary event, persons with Type 2 diabetes - non-insulin dependent diabetes, the most common form of the disease - also

have a high risk of dying from a heart attack. * • Use a lipoprotein profile, or 12-hour

fasting test, as the first test for high cfiO' lesterol. A lipoprotein profile measures levels of LDL, total cholesterol, HDL, and triglycerides, another fatty substance in the blood. Healthy adults should have a

Local residents enjoy Muscular Dystrophy Association summer camp Each year at MDA Summer Camp, Alex Jones, 11,

of Farmington looks forward to one special night: Casino Night. After five years at camp, that night still tops his list of favorite camp activities.

This year, Alex's brother Ben, 9, joined him at camp, held at Camp Cavell in Lexington, Mich. June 24-30. Both boys have a neuromuscular disease, but together and with the help of their attendants, they spent the week making arts and crafts, and playing sports. They also enjoyed squirting volunteers with squirt guns, much to Alex's delight.

"Camp is very uplifting and rewarding," said vol-unteer attendant Amy Hepper of Warren. "It's a lot of fun. There are so many different types of people here that there's no judgment."

Since 1955, young people ages 6-21 with neuro-muscular disease have attended MDA summer camps. Hundreds of volunteers staff the camps and donate countless hours to ensure that each camper enjoys activities tailored to his or her special needs. Campers play a wide range of games, including euchre, football and softball. They also participate in a magic show and a tug-of-war.

Happy campers: (Left to right) Ben Jones of Farmington, volunteer Jen McPherson of Hamburg, Alex Jones of Farmington, and volunteer Amy Hepper of Warren are happy campers at MDA Summer Camp.

It costs MDA $450 per child to provide the campers with this unique experience. The camp is underwrit-ten entirely by the generous support of local corpora-tions and individuals. These and other donors will be recognized on Labor Day weekend (Sept. 2-3) during the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon on WB20 Detroit. This year marks the 36th telethon.

Founded in 1950, the Muscular Dystrophy Associa-tion is a voluntary health organization dedicated to finding a cure for 40 neuromuscular diseases. MDA funds research'Worldwide and currently funds pro-jects at the University of Michigan, Wayne State University and Michigan State University.

MDA operated 2130 hospital-affiliated clinics across the country. Local clinics are located at Children's Hospital in Detroit and the Michigan Institute of Neuromuscular Disorders in Farmington Hills. Ser-vices include physical, occupational and respiratory therapy, genetic counseling and testing, social ser-vices consultations and year-round patient care.

The Observer & Eccentric/ SUNDAY, JULY 1, 2001 * D 5

A little sun goes a long way in causing permanent skin damage Ann Arbor, Mich. - It's not

just sun-worshippers basking on beaches and in backyards who should heed warnings about the damage the sun can cause.

Physicians at the University of Michigan Health System say everyone should beware. Any amount of unprotected sun expo-sure - for example, the walk from the car to the grocery store entrance - can contribute to genetic changes in the skin and lead to premature aging, brown spots, wrinkles, sagging skin, and even skin cancer.

"The sun damages the skin every single t ime it hits the skin," says John Voorhees, chair, Department of Dermatology, U-M Medical School. "It's simply a matter of degree. So, a tiny bit of sun gives you a tiny bit of dam-age and a little more gives you a little more damage and the prob-lem is that it accumulates over time, causing the damage to be permanent."

The "healthy" tan that many people long for is anything but healthy. In fact, Voorhees says that a tan is the skin's way of saying that it's been damaged, and the darkening is the skin's way of providing its own sun-screen to block out further rays. Although a tan does provide a small amount of sun protection -a sun protection factor, or SPF, of about two - that amount of protection is inadequate to pre-vent serious sun damage.

Many people think that if they

do not get a sunburn, that they're home-free. "That's not the case at all," Voorhees says. "A sunburn is simply an indica-tion of very gross, bad damage."

Sun protection for kids "It is believed by many that

melanoma, which is the worst form of skin cancer, is caused by exposure to sunlight when you're very young," Voorhees says.

Many believe that freckles just appear in children naturally. But in fact, Voorhees says, the majority of freckles, if not all, are sure signs of sun damage. "When you see that occurring in a child, of course, it's too late for those spots, but certainly that person needs tremendous sun protection."

Sun exposure causes damage to the genes in the skin, Voorhees says. And although the body has a mechanism that repairs the vast majority of the damage that occurs, it's not a perfect fix. Some of the damage always remains. A scar, called a solar scar, is left behind.

"You can't see these either in a microscope or with the naked eye," Voorhees says. "But, after exposure, after exposure, after exposure - maybe 100, 200, 500 exposures - these invisible scars in the skin coalesce to become a scar that you can see. That caus-es a wrinkle, or sagging skin, and essential ly , you look old before your time because you have accelerated the aging pro-cess in your skin."

How much is too much? One or two damaging events

are not enough to give someone skin cancer. But researchers have found that as the skin is subjected to more and more damaging events, the genes in the skin are mutated perma-nently.

"And if you hit the right gene with the sun, you can end up w i t h skin cancer," Voorhees says. "And skin cancer is the most common cancer in humans by a large margin."

Voorhees explains that the sun h a s some benefit . It helps to form Vitamin D that promotes the absorption of calcium and strong bones.

"One of the best protections is staying out of the sun during the peak brightness of sun from about 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.," he says. "The second key item is when you're outside at any time, that you stay in the shade. And the third thing is to wear protective clothing; a large hat and long-sleeved shirts."

He emphasizes that if you can't avoid the sun or wear pro-tective clothing, use sunscreen as a fallback. "This is the oppo-s i t e of what most people do. They use sunscreen first and then, if somehow they feel too hot or the sun appears too bright, they will go under a tree for a period of time or put on a hat . That is not the way it should be done."

Facts, resources regarding sun exposure • Excessive sun 'exposure can

cause your skin to age prema-turely, become leathery, wrin-kled, and in some cases, may cause skin cancer.

• The effects of the sun are cumulative over a lifetime. Peo-ple usua l ly receive most of their sun exposure by the age of 18, so protecting children from the sun is very important for their long-term health.

• Researchers and physi-cians recommend staying out of the sun during the peak bright-ness of sun which is from about 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. When outside at any time, stay in the shade and wear protective clothing. The last line of defense should be sunscreen.

• Sunscreens should be at least SPF 30 and broad-spec-trum, blocking out both UVA and UVB. Read the fine print

to ensure that one of the follow-ing two ingredients is present: Parsal 1789, or avobenzone. Apply sunscreen liberally!"

• Skin cancers are now the most common type of cancer. The most common type is called basal cell carcinoma. It is a slow-growing cancer that usu-ally does not spread to other parts of the body. The second-most common skin cancers are called squamous cell carcino-mas. They grow more quickly and have been known to spread. The least common form, malignant melanoma, is the most serious. It arises on or next to moles. If it's not treat-ed, it can spread - sometimes with fatal results.

Sunscreens Sunscreens are not as effective

as most people would believe, Voorhees says. The standardized tes ts used to determine SPF often use a larger amount of sun-screen than anyone would use when applying it to themselves.

"The problem is, that it's been shown by experimentation and by actual study that the average person puts on their skin some-

where around one-third to one-quarter the amount that is nec-essary to give them the SPF fac-tor on the bottle," he says. "So, if you purchase a bottle of sun-screen that has an SPF of 40 and you put on one-quarter of the amount that it was tested under, you will be getting an SPF of .10 on your skin."

Voorhees does recommend that people look for sunscreens that

are broad-spectrum, blocking out both UVA and UVB. But, people should read the fine print too.

"Be sure that what you're about to buy contains either Parsal 1789 or avobenzone," he says. "Those two terms describe the very same chemical. As long as you have one of those along with an SPF of 30 or greater, that's the best that you can do -and apply it liberally."

Gene variation linked to common sleep problem CHICAGO (AP) - A disorder

that causes breathing lapses while sleeping is linked to a gene variation associated with Alzheimer's disease and cardio-vascular problems, a U.S. study has found.

A new study, led by Dr. Hiroshi Kadotani of Stanford University's psychiatry and behavioral sciences department, suggests that 8 percent of it could be due to the gene varia-

tion called apolipoprotein E-4. Compared with people without

the trait, study participants with the E-4 variation faced almost double the risk of having sleep apnea, the authors reported in Wednesday's Journal of the American Medical Association.

The resu l t s come from an ongoing sleep disorders study involving 791 middle-aged adults. Of the 222 participants with the E-4 variation, 12 per-

cent had moderate to severe apnea, compared with 7 percent of participants without the vari-ation.

They noted that sleep apnea "induces s leepiness and may damage the brain irreversibly through long-term" low levels of oxygen in the blood.

The study does not necessarily imply that all adults with sleep apnea face an increased risk of Alzheimer's and cardiovascular

disease, even though the E-4 trait has also been l inked to those ailments.

Arthritis Today JOSEPH J. WEISS, M . D . RHEUMATOLOGY

18829 Farmington Road Livonia, Michigan 48152 Phone:(248)478-7860

OPERATING WHEN YOU ARE ALMOST WELL ! ' i You develop arthritis in your knees and possibly wrists or hands. Your

doctor prescribes medicine, takes the fluid off your knees when needed, and recommends physical therapy to build up muscles and maintain your stamina.

Over a year or more, your arthritis resolves, but not quite. You need to return to the doctor repeatedly because one knee keeps swelling and requires repeated removal of excess fluid. You fee! you may need more medicine to bring that knee under control. Instead, your doctor arranges for you to see an orthopedic surgeon for a knee synovectomy.

What happened was that the lining cells of the knee joint developed an exuberant synovitis for which the treatment is not more medicine, but removal of the excess knee tissue? The situation is like a lawn with thick high grass; the best solution isn't weed killer, but to mow the lawn.

Why the lining tissue grows excessively is unclear. What is known is that this tissue is not a cancer, and that once shaved down, the extra growth of lining cells does not return.

This problem most often occurs in the knee, and people with psoriatic arthritis are most at risk for its occurrence. However, the same problem can appear with any arthritis, and oddly enough when that arthritis is otherwise controlled.

Twenty years ago having a synovctomy meant your knee was stiff for and indeterminate period and required a rehabilitation per iod lasting months. Nowadays, or thopedists can perform a synovectomy via arthroscopy. You may stay overnight in the hospital and are walking well within

• Pay attention to HDL levels. ATP III defines a low HDL as being less than 40 mg/dL. Previ-ously, a low HDL was less than 35 mg/dL. New findings suggest a strong link between a low HDL and an increased risk for heart disease. An HDL leve l of 60 mg/dL or more is considered pro-tective against heart disease. ; • Employ the guidel ine's "Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes" (TLC) treatment plan. The TLC diet includes limiting daily calo-ries from saturated fat to 7 per-cent. However, it allows up to 35 percent of daily calories form total fat, provided most is from unsaturated fat, which doesn't raise cholesterol.

Encourage the use of foods that contain plant stanols and sterols (certain margarines and salad dressing) and foods high in soluble fiber (cereal grains , beans, peas, legumes, and many fruits and vegetables) . Also, stress the need for weight con-trol and exercise. Weight control lowers LDL and raises HDL, while physical activity improves HDL, and, for some, LDL.

• Identify a "metabolic syn-drome" of risk factors linked to insul in res istance. The syn-drome includes factors such as too much abdominal fat (indicat-ed by too large a waist measure-ment), elevated blood pressure, elevated triglycerides, and low HDL. Insulin controls the body's metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and protein.

"The metablolic syndrome has emerged as being as strong a contributor to early heart dis-ease as cigarette smoking," said Dr. Scott Grundy, ATP III chair-person and director of the Cen-ter for Human Nutrition at the University of Texas Southwest-ern Medical Center at Dallas.

• Treat elevated triglycerides more aggressively. Recent stud-ies indicate that an e levated triglyceride level is significantly linked to the degree of heart dis-ease risk. Treat even borderline-high triglyceride leve ls wi th weight control and physical activity. Sometimes, for higher triglyceride levels, medication may be needed.

"The problem with triglyc-erides is that they are generally associated with a low HDL," said Rubenfire. A triglyceride level over 200 is dangerous and usual-ly is associated with diabetes or excessive alcohol consumption, he added.

• Advise against the use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) as an a l ternat ive to cholesterol- lowering drugs. According to ATP III, studies have not shown that HRT reduces the risk for major coro-nary events or deaths among post-menopausal women who have heart disease. HRT also •increases the risk for throm-boembolism and gallbladder dis-ease. In contrast, cholesterol-lowering drugs have been found to reduce coronary events in women without or without heart disease.

A warning Although high cholesterol can

be managed through l ifestyle changes and medication, human nature may be physicians tough-est patient. "People don't get too excited if they feel well. Young people don't think about mortali-ty," said Rubenfire.

Yet, even moderate exercise can raise the levels of HDL, the "good" cholesterol, by 10 or 15 percent. It can raise it even more if you're overweight, said Ruben-fire.

Prevention should begfn peo-ple's 20s and 30s, he said. The arteriosclerotic process becomes very active in the 40s and 50s, and peaks in the early 60s. By then the damage is done.

And forget about b laming heart disease on heredity, he warned."Seventy-five to 80 per-cent is lifestyle, not heredity. People blame it on heredity, but it's the interaction be tween heredity and the environment."

for the latest in home construction

Claremont - one of five communities at The Oaklands - brings the reputa-tion and tradition of luxury excellence of Moceri Builders to attached condo-minium construction. , Eighty residences, two together, are under construction off Silver Bell just east of Adams in Oakland Township.

"There's nothing like this in the area as far as luxury in a package in the condominium market," said Frank Moceri. "Nothing new with the high level of amenities we offer.

"This is a Mini-Me version of Carroll-ton Hills, one of the highest-end we're building," Moceri added.

"We're including basically the same features in a smaller package for peo-ple who don't need as large a home but want the nice amenities we have in fine, luxury homes."

Moceri offers six floor plans at Clare-mont.

They range in price from $430,000 for a ranch of 2,033 square feet with two bedrooms and two baths to $589,000 for a two story of 3,017 square feet with two bedrooms and 2-1/2 baths.

All include at base price two-car garage, first-floor laundry, deck, base-ment, fireplace and air conditioning.

Other basics include separate jet tub and shower in the master; double oven, cooktop, refrigerator and dishwasher in the kitchen

Other luxury amenities include mar-ble flooring in the foyer, wood in the kitchen/ nook, ceramic in the laundry and baths and carpeting throughout.

Crown moldings, recessed lights, solid core Masonite doors, wainscot paneling and columns also are stan-dard.

Landscaping also is included. Brick, wood siding and dimensional

shingles are primary exterior materi-als.

"Equally important is exterior archi-tecture design, the overall streetscape," said Karla A. Bodrie, sales associate. "The landscape package is going to be of high value.

"The privacy thing is important. You can have amenities like a walk-out (basement) and deck and still maintain privacy by the way the doors are posi-tioned."

"The rear elevations were designed to look like a large home versus a mul-tiple unit," Moceri said.

The grounds also will be attractive with fountains, ponds and a gazebo,

Claremont: [ Luxury con-j dominiums 1 clustered ini pairs look \ like one huge estate.;

Moceri added. 1-75 is convenient, Bodrie said.

Four models have been constructed. Basements have been finished in all

four. Everyone who has bought to date has selected the finished basement option that adds at least 1,100 square feet of living space.

Basements vary slightly and may include such elements as a bar, theater, bedroom, sitting area and bath.

Some highlights of the models: • The St. James, a two-story of 3,017

square feet excluding basement, fea-tures a two-way fireplace between the living room and hearth room/ kitchen/ nook.

The master features an optional step-up sitting area and fireplace, a pair of walk-in closets, two sink vanity and a separate sitting/ make-up area.

An optional elevator is available in the St. James for $40,000.

• The Prescott, a story-and-a-half of 2,900 square feet excluding basement, features a library with cathedral ceil-ing, a great room with sloped ceiling, and two bedrooms upstairs, each with its own bath.

• The Bancroft, a ranch of 2,033 square feet excluding basement, con-tains a living room with cathedral ceil-

ing, dining room with pan ceiling and a master suite with an unusual hybrid ceiling.

• The Whitehall, a story-and-a-half of 2,800 square feet excluding base-ment, features a two-way fireplace at the junction of the living room and din-ing room, a parlor and the master suite.

A bedroom, bath and room that can be used as a bedroom, craft room or exercise room are up.

Claremont is served by a well water system, sewers and sidewalks. It's within the Rochester school bound-aries.

The property tax rate is $25.49 per $1,000 of state taxable value, half of sales price for new construction. That means the owners of a $580,000 home there would pay about $7,400 the first year.

The monthly maintenance/ associa-tion fee, which includes water, is $360.

Vivian Wilson bought a home in Claremont..

"I do high-end real estate and had sold three of Moceri's homes in the last couple of years and knew what kind of builder he was - excellent," she said. "I bought a ranch and like the excellent use of space.

The curb appeal of the Yesteryear is truly-outstanding.

The gazebo-styled porch with dormers over the second floor and the fan design above the garage truly catches the eyes of a passerby.

The home has 1,826 square feet of open living space with ah optional basement of 1,059 square feet.

Crossing the wrap-around porch into the Yesteryear brings the guest directly into the great room of this gracious home. The stairs to the second floor as well as the

basement are on the right side of this room.

The great room flows openly towards the dining room and the kitchen. A second door opens to the side onto the end of the wrap-around porch.

The formal din-ing room is accessed through archways both from the great room and into the kitchen. The kitchen forms a large C-shape with lots of counter space. It also has an archway into the great room.

The master suite occupies the right rear section of the Yesteryear. It has a corner walk-in closet. The master bath has an oversized corner shower, tub and dual sinks.

In the hall outside the master suite is a half bath with the washer and dryer tucked into a closet out of sight. There is also a door into the two-car garage from here.

Upstairs are two bedrooms with a den or guest suite. Adjacent to the den is a study that would be ideal for a computer room or

National contest seeks allergen-packed homes

(NUE) - Think s t a y i n g indoors will keep you safe from allergens? Think again.

Mold, house dust mites and animal dander may cause year-round nasal a l l erg ies with bothersome congestion, sneezing and itchy, runny nose.

But before you think of pack-ing up and moving out, there's a better way to take control of the dust, mold and other aller-gens-in your house. Just let "The Boss of Cleaning," Jeff Campbell, come to your home and clean it properly.

All you have to do is enter the Give Your Home the STAR Treatment contest, sponsored by Flonase (fluticasone propi-onate) Nasal Spray.

Campbell and his "Clean Team" will personally visit the homes of the three top winners and show them the S teps Toward Allergy Relief (The STAR Treatment) - a thor-ough, professional cleaning to reduce allergens. Campbell will also present each winner with a check for $5,000 to help them stock up on cleaning sup-plies.

"House dust mites, micro-scopic relatives of the spider, live in bedding, on upholstered furniture and in carpeting," said Jeff Campbell, president of The Clean Team, San Fran-cisco's largest housecleaning service. "Other allergens, like pet dander and mold, are also prevalent in homes."

Dr. Deborah Fawcett, a Fel-low of the American College of Asthma, Allergy and Immunol-ogy, will also visit the homes to discuss the health implications of an allergen-packed home.

"Indoor allergens are among the most common causes of nasal allergies, affecting an estimated 40 million Ameri-cans," said Fawcett.

"In fact, these allergens can linger in your home for a long period of time. For instance, it can take up to six months to get rid of cat allergen, on your sofa. And, s ince'dust mites reproduce rapidly, there May also be up to 2 million of them in your pillow, not to mention your bedding, upholstered fur-niture and carpets," Fawcett said.

All contest entrants will receive a STAR Wheel, an easy-to-fol low al lergen removal guide for each room in the house.

Entering the contest is easy. If you're 18 or older, log onto www.flonase.com and explain in 100 words or less why we should Give Your Home the STAR Treatment.

The three entries judged to be the most appropriate, origi-nal, creative and persuasive will win a free home cleaning and$5,000.

The contest ends Sept. 14. Winhers will be contacted in October 2001. Complete con-test rules are available online at www.flonase.com

A home for all seasons: remodeling with futuristic eye

DAVE KELLETT SR.

Access ib i l i ty i s the keyword for a home you may want to l ive in through your ret irement years. For those of us approaching th is time of life, custom bui ld ing or

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ re tro f i t t ing our homes now means

we l l have ease of use later. Looking ahead certainly beats

letting physical restrictions limit our quality of life or our indepen-dence later on. Sore shoulders and knees become much more common place and require limits for reach-ing up and lifting as well as flat access for walking.

Features to consider in an overall

home design when outfitting it for living in the long term are a first floor master bedroom and bath as part of a single-story open floor plan.

For physical comfort, consider higher than standard wall recepta-cles (electrical outlets), and lower than standard light switches, ther-mostats, closet rods and shelves.

If you are lucky enough to reach a ripe old age, sound act ivated lights and lever handled doorknobs instead of round ones will be much easier for your aging hands.

For safety when walking can become more diff icult , consider secured, low-pile carpeting instead of throw rugs and specify flat tran-sitions between different kinds of f loor ing m a t e r i a l s to reduce chances for trips and falls.

And remember that although no one a s p i r e s to n e e d i n g a whee lcha ir wider doorways and space for m a n e u v e r i n g a wheelchair are standard design features in accommodations for seniors.

If room allows, a deep closet can be located where a future in-home elevator could be installed if neces-sary.

Consider adding a security sys-tem and monitors for outside doors tied to telephones or the television so you can speak with and/or see whoever comes calling. Also consid-er adding signals for the mailbox or the driveway.

For your home's entryway, think about a wide door with a set-down shelf outside it for putting down packages, then add keyless entry

locks and a lower peephole. The entry area should be well-lit, covered and wide with no steps, if possible, and a level pathway and drive.

In the kitchen, appliances with front-mounted knobs offer a more comfortable reach as does low shelving with swing-out doors and rol l -out trays . S ide-by-s ide refrigerator doors are easier to use than over-and-under doors and need less room to swing open. And for wheelchair access, lower counters, an overhanging sink and an under-counter refrigerator can be essen-tial.

Bathroom features should include grab bars in the shower, tub and toilet areas. In

the shower you'll appreciate nonskid strips, a built-in shower seat, a hand-holdable shower head and a walk-in/roll-in access way. A raised toilet seat can be a real help when legs get weak. And a roll-under sink and wheelchair maneuvering space shovy terrific foresight. >

Such suggestions are for those who value their future independence and comfort enough to plan for it.

Don't let sprinkler systems leave you and your lawn high and dry FROM HOME SERVICE STORE FOR A P WEEKLY FEATURES

There's no watering down the pop-ularity of home lawn sprinkler sys-tems, but homeowners can oversee installation without getting finan-cially soaked.

It takes understanding of water-ing system options and a rational approach to dealing with installa-tion contractors.

"If homeowners would take the time to look at the fundamental aspects of the job, the installation would go smoother, they'd spend less money and conserve water," says Sharon Mertins, a watering system

.expert for the Home Service Store. Mertins says automatic spray sys-

tems are by far the most popular. Water pressure forces sprinkler heads to pop up to spray a 17-foot-diameter section or full circle for a preset time.

Rotary and drip systems are other, lesser-used options.

"Rotary systems are great if you have a large unobstructed yard," says Mertins. Rotary heads provide a mammoth 70-foot swath of cover-

age. Drip systems conserve water although these are limited to reach-ing root systems in flower beds. The one system Mertins steers clients away from is a manual sy s t em which is more expensive to install.

Whatever system fits the bill, says Mertins, "It all depends on water pressure. If you don't have adequate pressure, you're sunk." The main water line in a home creates more pressure than systems connected to a sewer meter.

Spray sys tems boost pressure through a sequence of smaller and smaller diameter pipes as water nears the sprinkler head.

Contractors bid installation sever-al ways. Most charge by the station the area covered by a spray head -rather than running foot of pipe. Some installers bid on yard size or by materials and labor multiplied by a profit margin. Typical installation t ime for an average yard is 140 hours.

Any bid will include variables unique to each yard. Water-blocking obstructions, S o i l , slope o f lot or labor-intensive work to run pipe beneath or around objects can

increase your costs. Mertins advises homeowners to

ask for all-inclusive bids. "Make sure everything is included so you won't have surprises at the end," she says.

A turnkey bid isn't the only thing homeowners should demand from contractors.

In a move to manage water resources, more than 30 s ta tes require that irrigation installation be done by l icensed contractors. Homeowners should ask to see the installer's license. References and experience also count, says Mertins.

The homeowner also should insist that installers assume responsibility if utilities such as phone, gas and electricity lines are severed.

Contractors should also perform a back-flow inspection as part of their bid. Back-flow devices, also known as double checks, keep water flowing in one direction and stop the return of water into a city water system.

Mertins says homeowners should stipulate contractor grade materials be used throughout, especially if the installer must make a sudden trip to a home store for additional parts.

i This week, The Meyers Report : looks at ethics and the Internet, * explaining how the challenges * of tomorrow can and must be t met with the philosophy of ages : past. I For all of its advancements the » Internet's greatest trouble is f ethics, an issue first raised thou-; sands of years ago in the schools i of ancient Greece. The risk is far * more than philosophical, it is our » present ana future economy, and i our personal freedom. : We seem to be hearing more : and more about the dark side of * the Internet — everything from » pornography and fraud to mas-;; sive break-ins and deliberate : widespread damage. With every t new report, politicians and com-:< puter experts scurry for answers, I expressing shock and dismay, ; calling for measures to prevent : future problems. : But are we truly justified in * our horrified response? Perhaps » not, said Charles Husson, a : Virginia-based computer pioneer • and Internet theorist. : , "The Internet, for all of its t attempts at security, still operates • ? on the honor system," saia : Husson. "It was made to be : totally accessible and user-: friendly. The security systems * are in place to keep honest peo-l pie out, to turn them away if I they stumble onto a site acciden-; tally, or if they are not serious ; about causing trouble." v Husson likens the Internet's * current state to a small town * where most residents leave the ; doors unlocked, actually hoping * for visitors.

"The problem is that there is no provision for ethical breach-

* es, he said. "One assault in a : quiet neighborhood terrorizes : people for blocks around, when * it was the very openness that I invited trouble." ; Husson, who teaches Internet ; technology in Virginia, explains : that many of his college students » regard ethics as irrelevant to the * workings of the Internet.

Internet addresses employs very strict rules, he believes it is easy for anyone who understands them to misuse them. It can be as simple as hacking into a secure site, or as demonstrated recently, shutting down major Internet players by overloading their systems. The only thing holding most people back, is ethics.

"Ethics has to do with the ways in which we abide by our own moral code," Husson said. "If one has no moral code, one has no ethics. Many of my stu-dents regard attacking secure sites as interesting challenges, or they rationalize it by claiming that they are heljpingto expose a site's vulnerability. They're street smart about the Internet, and that leads to a very pragmat-ic approach — in other words, an approach completely lacking in ethics. Too many young peo-ple do things, just to see ir it can be done."

This pragmatic approach takes the form of opportunistic and even predatory use of the web on a regular basis. In some cases, websites are used for fraud, to promote illegal activi-ties, or simply to spread lies and propaganda to vast* audiences.

"it's like i printing," Husson said, ""mere

in the earlv davs of ly days d. "The

was a time when anyone with a cheese press and a set of letters could put out anything they wanted, arid there was no way to protect authorship, ownership or the truth. It got so bad that Sir Isaac Newton refused to publish his theories after dishonest print-ers had stolen many of his ideas and forwarded them to other academics, who put them out as their own."

Printing guilds, which observed strict guidelines for their work, were established to solve the problem. The printer's "imprimatur" in a book was the assurance of integrity in its pub-lication.

"One of the major problems we have with many of the

Internet service providers is that the people who are doing the service, operation and mainte-nance are selected for their technical skill, and not for their philosophical depth," Husson lamented. "The imprimatur used by early guild printers is not likely to show up in any modern way. Ethics only plays a role in the operation to tne extent that their own structures aren't vio-lated from within."

The issue of Internet ethics is not limited to criminals, hack-ers, and electronic wrecking crews, however. If it were, the discussion would be pointless, since they have already rejected any interest in ethical behavior. More important to the equation is the average user, who taces ethical questions every time he logs in.

The law is being violated almost every time you turn on your computer," warns Husson. 'Remember that copyright law

prohibits duplication by any means. If you download copy-righted material without permis-sion, be it a photograph from an online news service or an article passed along by a friend, you nave duplicated it, and you have broken the law."

The key, says Husson, is for those who are aware of ethical concepts to be vigilant and not let pragmatism erode the morals that they follow outside the vir-tual realm.

"If this thing is to truly have a chance," Husson warns, "those who have the capacity to act ethically must do so. If they do, many of the gaping doors will close and lock themselves. If they don't, they might as well invite the rest of the thieves and looters in for dinner."

"Joint ownership can work successfully under most circumstances, but it's always smart to prepare for the unknown," says Richard Roll, pres ident of American Homeowners Association.

"Joint homebuyers need a plan or docu-ment to clarify what happens to their respective financial interests in the home should something unforeseen happen and they have to sell," he said.

Joining your fortunes together makes coming up with a down payment and monthly mortgage payments much easier. Lenders are happy to accommodate joint owners.

A l though the path to f inancing is smooth, the law is full of potholes when it comes to unmarried couples.

Typically when a spouse dies, the sur-viving spouse automatically becomes the full owner under joint tenancy with right of survivorship. And the divorce settle-ment provides the framework for deciding ownership.

That's not true for unmarried couples. Without some plan or document, the death of your housemate does not make you the automatic owner.

And if you break up, you're in uncharted legal territory and really ripe for disagree-ments over who's responsible for costs, whether to sell, or how to divide sale pro-ceeds.

So what are best solutions? First, con-sider sole ownership. If one person is com-ing up with the lion's share of the costs, consider putting only that person on the title.

If you insist on putting both names on the title, you have further options to clari-fy what happens under the type of title.

Under title as tenants in common, the outcome is determined by the deceased person's will.

Under joint tenancy with rights of sur-vivorship, the survivor becomes the sole owner and responsible for the mortgage.

Beyond that, you can get down to the fine print in a partnership agreement. This document spells out how the home sale would be handled in a breakup.

Such agreements may require the two co-owners to use a mediator instead of going to court to resolve any disputes.

Remember that laws vary from place to place, so consult with a real estate attor-ney.

Let's Talk About Real Estate

"HOW MUCH COULD YOUR RENTAL PAYMENT BUY?"

Have you thought about buying a home but felt you could not afford one now? Maybe you are right or you could be wrong. A lot has happened to home financing

' in recent years. We now live in a time when there are ; many different types of mortgage loans available. They

are all designed to appeal to various types of buyers " based upon their financial needs.

Most people who are now renting don't have much - money saved up for the down payment on a house.

There are some mortgage loans that have been tailored just for the low down payment buyer. If you

• think you need 20% of the purchase price in a down payment, you are mistaken. You can buy a home for

; 3% down. If you are a veteran with eligibility remaining, you can purchase with a zero down payment.

; You may also be surprised at the selection of homes * available in a price you can afford. Don't assume that ; you can't buy. Get the facts you need to know where ; you stand.

Go to a local mortgage lender and find out how much financing you could qualify for. After obtaining this information, contact a local Realtor in your area and ask him or her to show you the kinds of homes for sale in your price range.

If you see affordable homes that are appealing, you might want to seriously consider buying now rather than later. If you are discouraged by the selection in your price range, find out about how. much higher

I down payment and or earnings you will need to buy the house you would want.

Either way, you will know where you stand and have a clearer idea of what you have to do to become a home owner.

A 2nd home shouldn't be merely a 2nd thought BY DENISE L . CARJNGEB FOR AP SPECIAL FEATURES

Forget roughing it. For a growing group of Ameri-

cans, a second home is anything but Spartan. A previous genera-

t ion in search of a little rest and * relaxation may have bought into . the charm of making do in cab-ins where running water counted as an "amenity." * But vacation home buyers in

the 21st century want it all: sim-plicity, sensuality and functional-ity. And they want all the com-forts of home.

Yesterday's rustic cabin is giv-ing way to a state-of-the-art retreat that marries the getaway

, feeling of an oceanside cottage, a lake house or a mountain cabin.

Because of this move toward ; the be-all, end-all second home, ^today's vacation home buyers

'-are:

• Yesterday's rustic cabin is giving way to a state-of-the-art retreat that marries the get-away feeling of an oceanside cottage or a lake house.

• Super-sizing. A one-room cabin with sleeping bags spread out on the floor doesn't cut it anymore. Instead, buyers are looking for vacation homes that include master suites, guests' suites and plenty of room for kids and grandkids. Kitchens and baths, too, echo the features that buyers enjoy in their prima-ry residences.

• Remodeling. Buyers eager to get their feet in the door of the growing second-home market are

snapping up older cottages with prized views and waterfront sites, then renovating them to bring kitchens, baths and square footage up to date. Hot additions include new kitchen-family room combinations, and porches or sunrooms that scoop up the view.

• Planning for the long haul. Because today's buyers are eye-ing their retreats as eventual places for year-round retirement living and as magnets for big family gatherings, they want homes that will last. "Buyers are looking for something permanent and solid," says Bill Nolan, senior building and remodeling editor at Better Homes and Gar-dens magazine. "This goes along with the trend away from the cheapie kit-cabin look. In addi-tion, resort property is getting pricier and, therefore, it's harder to justify doing something cheap."

That quest for quality also applies to decorating.

Comfortable, well-made fur-nishings, whether rustic or romantic in style, have replaced the kind of used or second-best, pieces that might have satisfied second home owners a decade or two ago. But the furniture and accessories aren't the kind found in primary residences, either.

After all, second homes are playhouses for adults — .places to go to be witty, whimsical, bold, colorful or romantic. Who wants to be serious at a weekend get-away?

Sandra Soria, executive interi-or design editor at Better Homes and Gardens agrees. "The second homes that are playful and per-sonal are scoring big among our magazine's readers," she says.

Popular vacation home interior design schemes include:

• Rustic. This look is particu-

larly popular for second homes because it signals ruggedness and casualness and it immedi-ately establishes that "away-from-it-all" feeling. Log cabins and log furnishings, American primitives, Adirondack-inspired pieces, and cowboy or Southwest-ern looks allow people to use bold and gutsy woods, leather, stone and other natural materi-als.

• Romantic. Think farmhouses with lace curtains, Carpenter Gothic cottages with country Vic-torian furnishings and French country charm. Creating these looks can be done easily by using soft fabrics, curvilinear furniture pieces and soft pastel hues.

• Nautical. Pieces for these crisp schemes, often using ship-style accessories and lighthouse motifs in red, white and blue have become easy to find at affordable prices.

• Tropical. Bright florals, cabana stripes, tropical fish motifs, bowls of seashells, palm i trees - even silk ones used as; witty sculpture - and bold tropi-cal sunset colors create an escapist vacation ambiance.

• Fusion. This is about blend- } ing the unexpected. Light-pine ; log furnishings can be mixedi, with pastel hues and touches of lace for a room that's both : romantic and rustic, or white-;; painted farmhouse-style furnish-ings can be accented with tropi-cal colors and fish motifs. People ; often feel more free to experi-ment with fun and humor when •; they decorate their second • homes!

• Easy-going. Simple, classic furnishings in neutral hues pro-vide comfort but take a back seat . to the fabulous view that is often ; one of the best decorative fea-tures of a vacation home. r

Kids and attractive decor can share the same house

Two Great Locations

BY SAMANTHA CBITCHELL A S S O C I A T E D P R E S S W R I T E R

NEW YORK CAP) - Kids might make a new house feel like a home and they'll certainly help contribute

r-'to a "lived-in" look, but that doesn't mean the house is destined to years .of dirt and disarray.

"Parents need to change their expectation a little of what life is going to be. It's not going to be pris-tine but it can be pleasant," says Anna Kasabian.

The good news, according to Kasabian, is no matter how small the house, it is big enough to accom-modate everyone's needs. The better news is you don't have to spend a lot of money to make it work.

"Integration is the key," she says. The kitchen, host of many family

gatherings, is an ideal place to start. Kasabian suggests storing chil-

dren's books, coloring, books, and crayons and markers alongside the cookbooks so the household chef has company in the kitchen - while also keeping a watchful eye over the youngest family members.

If the kids are old enough to con-

tribute to daily chores, the napkins, placemats and flatware needed to set the table can be kept on a low shelf making it easy for them to do their part.

A trunk or bench with storage in the main entryway invites coopera-tion from children looking for a place to put their shoes, balls and hockey sticks when they come home from school or a play date.

"Be realistic," says Boston-based Kasabian, who has written several decorating books. "Don't ask the kids to bring stuff up to their room every time they walk in the door, but ask them to put it in a dedicated spot near the door, that's OK."

And, she adds, if they decorate their "personalized" storage contain-ers (irfaybe a bucket or basket with their names painted on it), the chil-dren will be more likely to use it.

In their bedroom, curtains with pockets provide "secret storage" and sturdy shipping boxes with the flaps cut off can be painted for instant bookshelves.

Storage is the biggest factor with kids, especially because they always

seem to have a lot of "stuff" - no matter how old they are, says Kasabian.

Make them feel like a part of the family by mixing your trinkets with their toys on the same shelf. And instead of a glass coffee table, consid-er a wooden table with rounded edges and drawers, where kids can put their own treasures next to your photos, she suggests.

If there toys are an eyesore, and some of those big plastic toys are, Kasabian says hide them under a table covered with a pretty cloth or behind an artificial "wall" created by a piece of fabric that hangs from the ceiling by a wire.

Another creative interpretation of-a "wall" is one covered with black-board paint that can be an oversize canvas for a chalk-wielding child.

Children are going to draw, paint, spill things and make messes any-way, so it's best to give them a place where it's OK to do it.

Kid-friendly fabrics and surfaces may not always be the most stylish, she says, but they are a compromise worth making.

Thermostat key to comfort, savings

Luxurious Estates In Beautiful Metamorq Township 20 Minutes from DaimlerChrysler Headquarters . . . J-75 and M-59

Kyi,

' Next winter's home heating •! costs could be just as high as this ; year's, according to early predic-- tions from the U.S. Energy Infor-mation Administration.

The most recent report from the government indicates that it will be a while, if ever, before natural gas prices return to lev-els seen one year ago.

"One of the simplest ways to save energy is to install a pro-grammable thermostat to auto-

. matically change your home's temperature based on your

• schedule and lifestyle," said Sean I McCarthy, director of the Apri-; laire center for indoor air com-; fort.

"And, now is the time to take steps to reduce your utility costs, before summer cooling bills start rolling in," he said.

Studies show using an elec-

tronic, programmable thermostat can save up to 18 percent on your heating and cooling costs.

Some homeowners believe a programmable thermostat will be too difficult to operate. That may have been true in the past, but today's models are much eas-ier to use, according to McCarthy.

"If you have never been in the habit of changing the tempera-ture while you sleep or when you're away, you'll be surprised at the energy savings a pro-grammable thermostat can achieve.

Some people know how to work for fun B Y D I A N E G A L E A N D R E A S S I SPECIAL WRITER

While the rest of the working world is counting the hours until we can take a few days off to spend time

at the golf course or escape to the beach, others go to stress-buster oases for their summer jobs.

Imagine getting paid to go to a resort island or to watch concerts. Take Mary McGuire for instance. For more than a decade of summers, the 39-year-old Hunt-ington Woods resident has worked on Mackinac Island and she loves every minute.

Growing up, she visited the island with her family and when she was a little girl McGuire vowed she would live on the idyl-lic vacation spot.

While she adores the white picket fences, daily views of the lake and story-book surroundings, McGuire's dream comes with a lot of hard work.

During the day she's a bartender and a t night she plays her guitar and sings in a couple of island bars. She even bought property on the island.

If this seems too dreamy, reality sets in during the winter when McGuire studies the history of art and architecture at Har-

(The r e a s o n f o r - l w t i j ob^J

is very expensive." Her plan is to work at the Detroit Insti-tute of Arts someday.

While pouring a drink for a customer at a bar on the island, McGuire said: "I love it here. It's beautiful."

She especially prefers the slower pace provided by the island rule of using horses instead of cars. Most of all, she likes the positive "vibe" of being around people on vacation who aren't stressed out by the idea that they have to go to work the next day.

"They're here to have a good time," McGuire said. "Anyone can do what I'm doing. You just have to do it."

That philosophy landed Mark Cirillo a spot on the baseball field summer nights. He's doing what most grown up boys long to do.

L o v e of t h e g a m e As head umpire for the Livonia Parks

and Recreation men and women softball teams, Cirillo's balmy evenings are filled with fly balls and the cracking sound of wood hitting a sphere and making it soar.

He has a crew of about 20 umpires and has 19 years experience with his summer-time gig.

"Money might be part of it," Cirillo said. "But, that's not why a lot of our umpires go to the field. They enjoy the game, they play it or are retired. When I played it, I always wanted to be an umpire. I can't recall any times that I didn't want to be there."

The best part of the job, he said, was talking to the players and knowing after a game that both teams, winners and losers, have said: "Good job,ump."

"I wouldn't put up with it for 19 years if I didn't enjoy it," he added.

B e a c h t i m e While Cirillo goes to the ball park at

night, Kristy Simms, 22, of Harrison Town-ship spends her days at the beach. Basi-cally, she gets paid for doing what most of us can only find the time to do once or twice a year.

' 'flail Hie Central Michigan University stu-

dent has worked as a lifeguard at Metro Beach in Mount Clemens from Memorial day to Labor Day for six years.

"You come to work, you sit on stand and you get to watch over people all day and get some sun at the same time," Simms said, adding tha t her supervisors also pro-vide a workout every week to keep her and all the other lifeguards fit.

"You have to stay in pretty good shape," she add;ed. "It's a great way to spend your summer."

Oh yeah. If the lake breezes, sun and the chance

to go swimming every day don't seem like the description of a perfect job, how about looking at the noble side?

On average, lifeguards rescue between five and 10 struggling swimmers every season, Simms said.

Her response: "It's rewarding." Even though Mary Lopez's work is less

glamorous than Simms' job, it's also a dream come true for the Westland resi-dent.

P e t p a l s She works all year on her business,

Mary's Pals for Pets, but her hours increase during the summer when a lot of her clients go on vacation and need some-one to look after their pets. She visits the pets two to four times daily and the start-ing fee is $10 to $12 per visit.

And the animals she sees aren't always cute, cuddly puppies, either. Add cats, rab-bits, guinea pigs, birds and a four-foot iguana to the list. Ninety percent of her clientele is from Canton and Plymouth.

The bulk of Lopez's work is mid-day dog watch for people who are away for long hours and need someone to come into their homes to exercise, feed or medicate a pet. While she's upbeat about her job, she said, the down side is the clean up duty after dogs.

She started "Mary's Pals for Pets" four years after she got the idea from a book

A good interview depends on you \

JOB SEARCH

GEORGl HAYt

Q. I've had some uncomfortable moments in recent interviews and peri-ods when nobody seemed to know what to say. How should I handle these situa-tions?

A. Some people you meet in interviews may be excellent in their own disciplines, but poor con-versationalists. Even managers who are engag- n ing under other circumstances can find it-~-difficult to relax in interviews. Others are -•< terrified of saying something inaccurate or r; illegal. It is very common for an interview- * er to be more nervous than the candidate. »

While these folks have veto power, their i discomfort doesn't have to work against ; you. Just be careful that you don't go into ; an interview with "guest syndrome," a con- ;* versational disease that is often fatal. •

People with guest syndrome approach 1

interviews this way: I, the candidate, am ' the guest here. You, the employer, are the ; host. This is your turf and you know what • you are doing. It is up to you to make me -comfortable, structure the discussion and . carry the conversational ball.

My job is simply to answer questions. ; Have at it.

You will blow interviews by taking this « posture. Your prime directive in any sales ' situation is to make the other person feel .! good. YOU must take responsibility for making the interview flow smoothly. Here's how:

Have four or five open-ended questions (who, what, where, when, why or how) stone cold memorized. These shouldn't be boilerplate questions from a book, but ques-tions that are of real importance to you. When an agonizing silence occurs, reach down into your bag of questions and roll one out, just to keep the conversation going.

Ask about the interviewer personally. How long have you been here, Mary? What-do you like about working here, Bob? me about your career, Sue. Give people easiest thing in the world to talk about -themselves. Besides, it's usually a favorite subject. - j / | .

Summer from page G1

about starting small businesses. . "I've been an animal lover since I was born," Lopez said. "I love it and I wouldn't give it up for anything." "• Lopez worked at a travel agency for 13 years and operated a licensed day care so she could remain home with her son for seven years until he started first grade.

"Then I discovered pet care," she said. "And it's great, because I can be home with my son before and after school."

For more information about Mary's Pals for Pets call Lopez at (734) 729-1919.

Music f a n s • Angela Forte of Oxford will probably see more concerts this sum-mer than any of her friends. That's one of the perks of working at Palace Sports and Entertainment, which includes the Palace of Auburn Hills, DTE Energy Music Theater and Meadowbrook. Forte and Marcie Lemke are interns in the human resource department.

"While other new employees around the metropolitan area are asked to do less than desirable tasks, like cleaning out restrooms, Forte and Lemke were picked to work the U-2 concert. They passed out wrist bands for the standing area. •S< "That was great," Forte said. "We got to see the band, while we were Working and making money."

, She and Lemke expect to "have" to work more concerts this sum-mer.

Forte, a 22-year-old Oakland University student, has spent time writing the employee newsletter and is oveijoyed to work at the

Palace Sports and Entertainment. "It's a lot of fun," she said. "The people here are wonderful." Lemke, on the other hand, is accustomed to landing extraordinarily

" fun jobs. The 21-year-old Ionia resident also had an internship at Walt Dis-

ney World. She worked as a greeter for eight months a t MGM Studios. But, working at the Palace is a terrific way to spend the summer,

too, Lemke said adding that she was thrilled to be working with the Palace Sports and Entertainment.

If going to concerts was a big enough draw, one of their other duties is to work company pizza parties during training and orientation ses-sions.

"I couldn't believe how friendly everyone is," Lemke said. "My major is business, but I'd really like to get into human resources."

Camaraderie is also a big part of Joe Feudi's job working at Fox Creek Golf Course in Livonia.

• Though he works staggering long hours, sometimes from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m., he said he wouldn't give up his job as a golf professional giving lessons and working as a manager, for anything.

"People always say we'd love to work at a golf course," he said. "It's a demanding task. It's the atmosphere and we have a love for the game, too. Basically, I've been in the golf industry my whole life. It's a great job."

During the winter he organizes upcoming seasons and works on improving "everything." The grueling hours, however, only leave him time to play golf once every few weeks.

Interview from page G1

Have four to five "strong points" stone cold memorized. It's easy to interview people who know what they want to say. By strongly articulating skills and expe-riences, you save the other person the difficult task of having to dig for relevant information.

Take advantage of opportunities to smile and inject a little humor. You don't • have to be a stand-up comedian, but listen for opportunities to lighten it up. 1

Nothing provides relief like a good chuckle. It tells the interviewer that you might be a pleasant person to work with. :

Focus more on connecting and less on impressing. So many candidates come ! across as being full of themselves, awed by their own accomplishments, wowed by their own experience. They naturally expect the interviewer to be awed and wowed, too. It's one thing to present salient selling points, it's quite another to state or imply that they are astonishing. How much better to concentrate on understanding the person on the other side of the desk, that person's needs and how you relate to him or her personally?

Remember to close almost every interview with a strong expression of interest. This tells interviewers that they did their job and "sold" the opportunity effective-ly. It makes them feel good - which is doing your job effectively.

Special note to those who are struggling through a tough period of unemploy-ment: A number of employees who have been "downsized" have reluctantly con-cluded that they might have to take contract work or accept a lower salary for the time being. This is just to let you know that you are not alone. For a lot us, 2001 is a year just to get through - feed the kids, pay the rent and plant plenty of seeds that will probably bear fruit when times improve.

Remembering a last chapter in the history of a model line B Y R I C K FEIBUSCH © AUTOWIRE.NET

The 1948 Chevy was a handsome car. It wasn't low slung and modern like the first postwar Studebakers, or streamlined like the contempo-

ra ry Packard, but it certainly was handsome. This car was the last chapter in the history of a

model line tha t started in mid-1941. While the 1942 Chevy appeared quite new with its low, wide grill-work and headlights smoothly blended into front fenders tha t flowed Buick-like into the doors, the underpinings were much as had come before. Civil-ian automobile production shut down to make room for war production in early February after less than 260,000 cars had been built.

Between 1942-45 a number of 1942 models, held in storage for "High Priority" buyers by the Office of Price Administration, were slowly released af ter J u n e 1943. These were all "blackout" models wi th painted brightwork.

The rest of the folks drove old cars or took the bus. (My mom couldn't drive at the t ime so she sold my dad's 1938 Master Deluxe while he was overseas -boy was he mad!) Enter, the car famine.

New cars needed By 1946 America needed new cars. The old ones

were worn out and replacement pa r t s were in short supply. Most of the American manufactures jus t s tarted cranking out facelifted 1942 models. Chevy

installed a wider, less fussy grille and s tar ted selling all they could build. The '47 Chevrolets sported an even wider, much more at t ract ive grille and some cleaner, more up-to-date side tr im. Sales were boom-ing. Chevy set an all-time convertible sales record when it produced 28,443 units .

But the Chevy s tar ted to look old by 1948. Not bad, jus t old. Nash, Packard , and Hudson h a d intro-duced their versions of Buck Rodgers space rocket and GM wouldn't be ready to show its next genera-tion of cars unti l 1949. The '48 was the last and the best of its pre-war line. Chevrolet 's venerable 216 cubic inch six had finally been updated wi th

Memories from page HI

precision-type main bearings instead of the old rough fit and ream-ers, and a vacuum assist for the three speed column mounted shifter.

In total, 776,000 Chevys were built that year before the lines were shut down to re-tool for the all-new 1949 models.

This particular Drive Report car is owned by Gerry Peter of Fair-field, Calif. Gerry found his 1948 Fleetmaster convertible in Red-wood City. He bought it, in pieces, from the widow of the fellow that started the restoration years before. After sorting out the boxes of unlabeled parts, Gerry was able to find the missing bits and start restoration.

Every part was stripped, cleaned or sandblasted, and either plat-ed, painted or replaced with brand new pieces. The car was then re-assembled, using all new rubber and hardware. The rebuilt running gear was installed into a newly painted metallic maroon body. The interior features red leather seats while the power top is covered in tan. Options include the vacuum shift, a spotlight, and a rare set of factory 15-inch wheels painted body color and correctly detailed with beige striping.

The Classic Drive This is not my first time around the block in a 1948 Chevy. In

1965,1 bought a nifty Fleetline Aerosedan (fastback) from the local butcher for $75. Drove it to the local high school — and to visit my

•girlfriend on weekends. She had moved over 35 miles away and in the Chevy, with its maximum safe cruising speed of 50 mph, it felt like a hundred miles. I used the hand throttle as a primitive cruise control and watched the VW vans fly past.

My 1948 might have been slow but it never once let me down. A '48 Chevrolet somehow appears larger than it really is. It's high,

the doors are big and heavy, and all of the styling components are large. The hood is big and so are the fenders if you count the part that is attached to the door.

Still, if you park one next to a Chevy from the mid-1950s, the 1948 looks like a compact. Quite an illusion.

This is one of those "armchair" cars that remind one of sitting in grandma's salon. I grabbed onto that bigger-than-life, white steering wheel, tugged the shifter into neutral and pressed my toe down on the floor mounted starter pedal. The little stovebolt hardly cranked, and ticked right over - just like my old fastback (damn, I wish I had-n't sold that car!).

The fully instrumented dash sprung to life, the little needles jump-ing to their appropriate places.

As I again found myself tugging at the shifter, I remembered that it was vacuum actuated. I'm not sure what the reasoning was for a gear change that could be easily shifted with one finger — very slow-

ly. If one tries to shift faster, even using a complete hand, the assist slows the process down as well as eliminating the gate feel. Shifting feels much like stirring well beaten whipped cream. Someone must have thought this was a good idea, but it is absolutely lost on me!

A quiet strength On the road, the car feels big and durable. Gerry's Fleetline sits 1

high, rides soft and smooth and leans like a speedboat in the curves. You sit behind that really big wheel, shifting that easy but slow shifter while listening to the lethargic six moan through i ts low-end- * torque-intensive power range. What it doesn't have in outright per- , formance is made up for by a feeling of a quiet strength — sort of the: Gary Cooper of cars.

This was obviously the last incarnation of a pre-war car. It was -handsome, well fitted, and had benefited from the engineering and material advancements made since 1941. These cars were solid and ; hard to break.

Gerry's maroon beauty is a testimony to a time in America when things were built a bit better and life was a lot slower. A time before the interstates when a car trip was to be a comfortable adventure, rather than a high speed bore. A time many of us, down deep, would like to go back to — or at least visit for awhile.
