>’ Testimony at a preliminary hearing in October revealed Wahl was momentarily distracted and hit Pincikowski While tiding to change preset radio station.
He pleaded guilty’ as, chared to one count of negligent homicide during a pre-trial hearing in January.
Eric Rutley, 29, was sentenced to return to the Michigan Department of Corrections on charges of animal cruelty /torture for beating Brownie, a 5-month-
sexualassault, burglary and drug delivery required a stiff sentence.
Prison records indicate he was on parole at the time of the attacks after serving
old Australian Shepherd, with nearly four years on a crimia tire iron- He was also sen tenced for nearly chocking his girlfriend unconscious in his Bell Street home a few hours later on Aug. 26.
Rutley pleaded no contest to the charges and pleaded guilty

Brownie survived the attack, but with the help of Humane Society’ of Huron Valley and community- donations underwent several surgeries to repair one broken

Court records indicate Michael Webber, 19, was. ordered to serve between one and five years in prison on eight felony counts spread over three separate cases. Washtenaw County Circuit Judge David Swartz credited
Wahj,a junior at Grand Valley Webster Township.
A n X K g S p ^ t t t g I" ^ W ash ten aw nicely with her new family in
State University, could have faced up to two years in prison under state law. However, part of his sentencing agreement with Washtenaw County Circuit Judge Melinda Morris dicfated he would be sentenced under the Holmes YouthtUl Trainee Act.
The law allows some offenders who are between 17 and 20 years old and plead guilty to their crimes to have their felony convictions ultimately expunged.

An Ypsilanfi-man will spend the next two to four* years in prison for beating h is girlfriend and her puppy in related incidents last summer.
Prior to sentencing, Rutley said he-was glad to hear that Brownie found a loving home and declared himself a lifelong dog lover.
”1 have three of them ’ myself," he said, reading from a handwritten letter before a filled courtroom last week. “I never ever tortured or hit Brownie or (my girlfriend at the time)."
Rutley told Washtenaw County CircuiWudge David Swartz that he accidentally backed over the animal with his vehicle and could not afford to get it proper medical care. He could not explain why he never told that to: investigators who pressed forward with felony charges or why he abandoned Brownie in an Ypsilanti park.
Swartz said Rutley's actions warranted significantly more prison time, but that state sentencing guidelines prevented him doing so without finding special justification under Taw.
He also ordered Rutley to pay more than $8,300 in restitution for the dog’s care.
Prosecutors argued that the brutality of the attacks and Rutley’s prior convictions for
County jail since his arrest and said he would not object to a recommendation by prison officials for a boot camp program.

By David C. BloomS p eo a l Witter , ,
The Chelsea Center for the r Arts continues its series of community parties this month with “Cabaret Chelsea: the Irish Party" at 8 p.m. March 6, at the historic Chelsea Depot,
The event will feature local Celtic musicians, dancing, singing, food and plenty of Guiness stout and Harp ale.
Admission is $10 at the door, All proceeds benefit the Chelsea Center for the Arts, .
ThejCabaret Chelsea series was conceived by Jeff Prenevost, director of the Michigan Pops Choir, as a > monthly community dance party - a place for folks to meet, relax and have ton. Each Cabaret Chelsea party has had a different theme. r
"Response to the first Cabaret Chelsea was a bit overwhelming,” Prenevost said, “We scaled it bade for last month's event — the Love Party —and we’ll use the same format this time for ‘Cabaret Chelsea: the Irish Party.’"
Guests will etijqy music and daheirtg, followed by a series of local performers, then more music and dancing: Prenevost calls it a "reverse interims- sion’ format
Dancers should plan to arrive at 8 p.m. Veteran dance caller Drake Meadow of the Saline Celtic Festival will lead first -time and experienced - dancers through simple steps;
Live music will be provided by the Session Rand - a group of local Celtic-influenced musicians who play at Cleary's Pub on alternating Sundays. ,,
After an hour of lively jigs and reels, guests will grab , chairs and be entertained by the Ann Arbor Morris Dance troupe, which will perform tra
ditional English folks dances with handkerchiefs and bells.
CCA's own Michigan Pops Choir will sing a medley of Irish songs, including the soul- ful "Danny Boy." Other performers will present Irish harp music, singing and surprises.
After the performances, the
Session Band will round out the evening with more live music for dancirig. t
"Our core audience will grow to include traditional music and dance enthusiasts from Chelsea and Ann Arbor,' Prenevost said.
Prenevost’s long-term vision is a "community party" affordably to everyone arid enhanced by seemingly spontaneous performances.

Local artist Kim (Trail)" Rhoney created this mural of a music tree for Milan Children's Preschool. The music' tree is used daily by cooperative preschool teacher Sarah Chinavare The children get to choose from songs that they’are learning in class by selecting icons that appear on the tree. Milan Children’s Preschool is a cooperative preschool'in which parents participate in running the school and assisting the teacher: Rhoney has been active in the school for the last four years, spanning the attendance of two daughters. "The mural was a way for me to leave a little something for the next families as Milan Children’s Preschool /s a special place that we are lucky, to have in Milan,".she said. Phoebe Rhoney, 4,.is pictured.

movingRelearn how to guiWines: sit, sleep and lift for health’s sakeBySeanfialtonMeMae Newspaper
s If only seeing the doctor, chi- ropractoror personal trainer was all it took to resolve an injury or meet a physical goal, we'd all be in pretty' good shape., Unless you’re also room mates with these people, and they don’tmind doting on yon like your mother did when you were a child, it’s not their responsibility to prevent the behaviors that led to you having toconsult with them in the first place.
Luckily it’smol all that difi ficult to take a chiropractor's
' advice <m how to perform routine behaviorsand actions that most people do incorrectly everyday* It's certainly easier than what a doctor might haw to say, and the personal trainer advice is going to make you break a sweat.
But there’s* nothing difficult about; for example, putting! your wallet into one of jour fropt pants pockets or in a jacket pocket, provided you’re wearing one :(hopefully we „ won’t have to for that much.longer, weather SimpsonF&mily Chiropractic's permitting) 10 helpfuUips and methods
It may . ,r for corretisift^ Steeping, lift- seem silty, but iftO and other daily actions Dr. Simpson and activities to prevent spinal pointed out the oornptioatjons orobvious: “How big is your wallet?”
My wallet is 11 8 inches or about three centimeters fat, and that’s after recently wishing it by accident, prompting me to remove several business cards, receipts and other nonsense.
Rven in its thinner state, sitting down on the wallet for as long as the average person sits can cause a lot of problems, since (in my case) every hour -
swm „First mid foremost, don’t
slump or slouch . Believe it or not, mis is a serious problem for children and teenagers today with all of the time spent playing videogames. It’s also a problem for adults who sit long hours at desks in an office or over laptops at a couch or in, bed while working from hpm& f Slumping overstretches musclesrand ligaments, even with a good Chair that provides support.
Make sure to sit back in the chair with the pelvis against the chair's back, Your knees should be at least level with your hip$r Elbows should be able to bend 90 degrees while using the chair’s armrest.
Take standing breaks from sitting to maintain the natural curve of the back and refresh the muscles.
Before youdoany of this, make sure you have the right chair. The right chair isn’t large andunsupportiw. It should
allow you to sit with your feet fiat on the ground.
The first thing you learn about sleeping while visiting a chiropractor is not to lay on your stomach
not a problem for me, since I’m a side sleeper.
Dr. Simpson told me that sleeping on, your back is
the best way, but 1 think I’m going to stick with my side
1 haw been using a pillow between my knees, which 1 keep in the fetal position, whereas l used to keep the lower leg
^straight and the higher leg bent forward. 1 haven’t woken up
spent sifting on my wallet tilts my pelvis to my left side, Simpson explained.
This causes lumbar spine injury over time, which is a * concern, because 1 certainly am an above average sitter. My time spent on the table bears this out, as my lower left back is one of the subluxated areas that need the adjustments, the most. 1
It takes some practice getting used to following these guidelines, but after a week or two most of them set in, although Dr, Simpson still catches me with my wallet in my back pocket from time to time.
Unfortunately he’s not there at my office or home to observe the rest of my behaviors.
It’s up to me to make sure that l follow the rest of these
with any pelvic pain since adding the pillow.
If I get used to sleeping on my back, I have been told to keep a small pillow below my knees. Some chiropractors recommend a cervical pillow for the neck and head.
Of course make sure the mattress you're sleeping on is firm enough to support your back, because if it’s not tjien all of the above may not matter as much, depending on how doughy the mattress is.
Incorrectly lifting something isn’t just a source of microtraumaslike the wallet or improper sitting.
Lifting a heavy enough object improperlycan put you into bed and on sick-leave for several days.
Dr. Simpson stresses that . his patients be mindful of the

1 encourage you to watch the video of Dr. Simpson demonstrating his 10 tips, from the items we’ve already gone over in this article to how to prop erly use a vacuum cleaner and
the dangers of leg crossing . HopeMy some of these
will be revelat ions^nd others reminders <of how to avoid micro-traumas through certain behaviors. '; As Dr. Simpson and most other chiropractors will tell you. micro-traumas occur in a number of, situations that are
, out of our control, such as fender benders and weight lifting.
Why pile more on from t he things that we can control?
Thank you for reading, and take care.

Djearbom artist Richard Kawucha Is bringing the tra- tiitionalartof scrimshaw to this year’s Dexter Pioneer Arts Pair from 10 a.m. to 4 pm. April' 17 at Creefcsaie Intermediate School in Dexter.
Growing up in Michigan. Kawucha had a fascination for sailing ships. On a trip to Mackinaw City 30 years ago, Kawucha had the opportunity to see many fine examples of scrimshaw, Enthused by the idea of an art form bourne of the sea, Kawucha purchased
a “starter kiC and began the proofs of .teaching himself the art of scrimshaw. Over the years he has spent many hours researching the tradition of -- scrimshaw and refining his craft.
The art of scrimshaw began in the early 19th century on whaling ships. To fill their spare hours, seamen on whaling vessels would use crude tools Uke sewing needles to carve intricate designs onto pieces of polished whale bone or teeth.
Tfiese seamen had ho formal art training, but rather taught
themselves the art through 'long: hours of trial and error Their carvings would often feature images from their life on the high seas. When finished, pigments would be added to the carvings to give the image dimension and beauty:
Even today, Kawucha continues to research the history
behind whaler’s scrimshaw, * and he continues to grow as a self-taught artist The hobby he started 30 years ago has
.grown into his passion.All erf Kawucha’s engravings
are dope by hand, Reuses legally imported ivory (ivory imported before June 1989) and other legal forms of ani

But with Damon brackets and flexible wire, blood pressure m the tiny vessels is stable and celkare stimulated to create movement Adjustments only heed to be made about every three months,
“You get 10 weeks of tooth movement with no pain and it's, much safer,” he said.
Howe has been using temporary titanium implants for the last four years.
“Sineetite beginning of orthodontics more than 100 years ago, we have had the limitation of reciprocal forces in orthodontics - whenever we move a moth in one direction it always has an effieft on other teeth in the opposite direction.” he said. “Now, we have these tiny titanium screw's or implants. We can use the implant as an anchor and pne*

The implants can be used to solve a variety of problems, including but not limited to closing spaces between teeth and correcting bite problems.
Howe has also been using a serf! tissue laser for the last four years. -

“With the screws and die laser, orthodontia is, a brand new tiling. It‘s very exciting."
Howe said that his practice’s mission statement is also his daily mantra..
“I’m joyfully grateful for all the children that I serve with tovingJondness, compassion and respect. And imbedded in that is integrity," he said.

Hey, I 'm Ryan Michaels, a l&year-pld writing mode reviews for Heritage Newspapers, I ’ve been doing it for two years, and enjoy it alot. Here’s myrevieit'of "Valentine's Day."
There is no genre in the medium of Film as cliched, as boring, or as insipid as the romantic comedy, in theory, blending the element of love with humor should be a much more interesting, enlightening experience than what modern audiences are generally being ottered these days.
But charmless, humorless, generally boring scripts are often the " force that drags down the genre. The latest romantic comedy to-hit theaters, “Valentines Day," offers a lot in terms of star power, but very little in terms of interesting characters, a decent story, or even entertainment.
Believe it or nbt, “Valentines Day1’ is really boring.i The film covers about 18 hours on Valentine's Day in Los Angeles in an apparently alternate universe where the romantic holiday actually holds meaning in people’s lives.
Ashton Kutcher, Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, Julia Roberts, Bradley Cooper, Anne Hathaway Jam ie floxx, Taylor Sw,ift and Taylor Lautner are among the actors who show up ~ in this film. All are small parts that, if removed fVom the film, would make no difference to the plot.
There aren't any interesting plot developments throughout all 120 minutes of the film, which drags on unlike, any other .film I've ever seen-1 don’t believe I've ever seen such a blatant attempt to make money.
One aspect of“Valentine’s Day” that really bothered me was that the film is repetitive. Sure, there are different variations of love in the film,But there are basically 120 minutes of uninteresting, good-looking people either in love or looking for love:v And there aren’t any interesting stories itH he. entire bunch, aside from a really poignant, sweet bit with Bradley Cooper and Julia: Roberts. ’ ’■ The film doesn’t have
a story; it has a series of - events that almost com* pletely fail at any. emotional resonance.
1 have no other way to equate this; "Valentine’s Day’’ sucks, 1 give it a half star out of four. ■

■MINISTERIAL’ MESSAI
T his past August .I was w orking on a su b c o m m itte e fo n n y 4 l-year'h igh 'school reun ion . My group w as p u ttin g together the b iography book of our c lassm ates ' lives. Fbr the Q uestionnaire tha t we sen t out, I included a question , "List any reg re ts you have ffom your h igh school years o r your life in g e n e ra l1* I d idn ’t expect m any o f my classm ates to spill th e ir guts, but thought tha t som e m ight h a w in teresting th in g s to say.
1 believe you can learn a lot abou t a person, and abou t life in g en era l, when som eone sh a res th e ir reg rets w ith you. I though t we m ight even receive some hum orous responses.
As it tu rn e d out, the question '.d id n 't accom plish w hat I hoped.
Most o f m y classm ates insisted they have no regrets. O f those Who d id express regrets, th e 7 most com m on responses w ere th a t they e ith er had not gotten to know enough o f th e ir c lassm ates d u rin g h igh school, o r h ad failed to Keep in touch w ith h igh school friends.
A few w ondered how anyone could have any reg rets, because reg re ts a re non-productive. Som e eYen critic ized m e and m y subcom m ittee for ask ing the question . v-
Personally, 1 can ’t im agine a living, b rea th in g h u m an being ,“ especia lly one w ho’s n ea rin g th e age of- 60 years, ndt having any reg re ts . We a re h u m an , an d I q an ’t believe th a t any o f us have m ade all the r ig h t decisions in life, o r have ex perienced no th in g b u t ideal c ircu m stances.
I a g ree th a t i t would be. w rong, an d nonproductive, to dwell on ou r reg re ts and co n tin u a lly focus on th e past. W6 have to move on. At the sam e tim e, however, I ’m con-
M ark P o n n s k y
vinced th a t honestly acknow ledging these th jngs can be helpful in m oving in to the ftiture.
One o th e r th ing really s tru ck m e. from the responses: O f those classm ates who did list some regrets, m ost m entioned e ith e r th ings
that had happened to them , o r decisions they had m ade, th a t really d idn ’t.involve r ig h t and . wrong, Only five o r six even liinted at som e n jo rah v ro n g
_ that they had com m itted.I realize, again , th a t m any
are re luc tan t to bare th e ir souls in a Ixwklet tha t w ould be read by m any of my class of 200 people. At the sam e tim e it m akes me wonder. "How m any people really have a sense of m orality, o f rig h t and wrong?" '
T here w ill. be a day w hen all reg rets can be erased, w hether they a re reg re ts about s o m e ' m isdeed’we've done o r some grxxi we’ve failed to do, o r som e un fo rtunate decision w e’ve made, o r some m isfo rtune th a t has befallen us regard less 'o f
. w hether o r no t we w ould ever dare to sh are o u r reg re t w ith those we know.
T here will be a day w hen we can en te r e te rn a l g lo tr because ou r S av ior Je su s C h ris t has ' cleansed all our^regiv ts w ith • His blood. Oh th a t day we w ill. see clearly how o u r God used every event in o u r lives, even , the reg rettab le ones, to keep us poin ted tow ard Him.
Oh th a t day, however, the re w ill a lso be hillions o f people who have one huge reg re t: •T hat they did no t com e to know th e ir God and Savior (h iring - th e ir lifetim e; T he good new s .. is t righ t now you can m ake su re you never h a w th a tfe g ro t.■ The Rev-Mark Ponnsky is

Notional Reading MonthOther than helping your chM.
grow up healthy ‘and happy, the most important thing you can do for them <s to help them develop their reading skills.. It is nb exaggeration to imply, that how well children team to read affects directly not only how successful they are in school but how well they do throughout their lives. ' When children learn to read, they have the key that opens the door to air. the knowledge of the world. Many or your everyday activities?' build reading skills from the day your child is bom.
Talk often with your toddler when feeding,, bathing and * dressing. Ask them to. name or find different objects or clothing. Point Out colors and shapes.
Listen to your child's questions and answer them. If you do not know the answer, have your child join-, you as you look for ,the answer in a book.
Print letters pt your toddler’s name on paper and say each letter as you write (t. Make a name sign for their room.. Have them decorate , the. sign wHh stickers or drawings.
Place alphabet magnets on your refrigerator ahd allow your toddler to put. letters together to make words. -
Let your child, help set up a home library tor their books. This shows them that books are important.
Using wordless picture books can help improve children's language skills and spark their imaginations.. ■
Encourage your child to write letters to family members such as grandparents, aunts and uncles.
Peed the newspaper with your child. Find age appropriate stories or just read the comics.

]*t was late in the fall of
200" and Michigan’s N economy already
was sliding into what •would become a three-
year decline unprecendented in modern times. Amid in- house discussions of possible special projects for 2008 came.: this idea:
Let's do something focusing on business and business-related innovations in the region. * Despite the economic doldrums Of the day: the news isn't all bad -r and this project would give us (and others) a chance to show that Michigan is progressing.- Despite the daily grind of - bad news, many in southeastern Michigan still were moving
- forward
Hence, "Moving Forward” was hatched, •
Today’s supplement marks the third consecutive year of our series. Annually, for each of-the four weeks of March, Heritage Newspapers produces a stream of stories, photos and advertisements focusing on the progressive nature of . our lives in the area.
Much of it is positive, although no one would attempt such a project and categorically claim that ALL of It
KARL2IQMEK
would be optimistic, While some stories and some opinions revel in optimism, others are cautious and measured. That is just reality
N o o n e w o u ld c la im- especially with its current
economic condition — that Michigan is perfect. But many Michiganders still are working to make this state a better place.
This year's four*week special series will be broken into, the following wide-ranging topics: family and ton, which includes entertainment, recreation, communities, housing and food; health and. well being, which will Include medical research and medical trends; evolving education, which will look at the public education crunch from cur- rent and fongderm perspec- "
tives, colleges and job retraining; and planes, trains and automobiles, which will be a look at the way we travel from many differing viewpoints.
A powerful impetus behind the Moving Forward series is housed in the ability of Heritage Newspapers to pool its resources.
Ffom advertising to editori- al/the Moving Forward series is buoyed by our staffing components from The News- Herald Newspapers and the lie Camera in the Downriver area through the staff of the Dearborn and Dearborn Heights Press & Guide, the Belleville View, Ypsilanti Courier, Saline Reporter and Milan Leader, Chelsea Standard and Dexter Leader and the new Ann Arbor Journal all the way out to the Manchester Enterprise.
By pooling ojur resources on this project, we’re able tp give our readers a much more regional look at innovation

another favorite at Sylvia’s and other local: pizzerias,,
Americans, by and large, prefer pizzas with meat toppings. That’s not true in Brazil, where the most popular pizza topping is green peas.
Russians like their pies v covered with moekba—a mix of sardines, tuna, mackerel, salmon and onions.
1 And in Japan, pizza lovers go for squid and Mayo Jaga—a mix of mayonnaise, potato and bacon.
In India, the top toppings are pickled ginger, minced mutton and tofti.
Pizza got Us start with the * early Greeks, who baked large, round fiat breads, which they topped with various foodstuffs, including olive oil, according to food experts. . .
Flat bread found its way to Italy tomatoes were discovered, and the-rest ispirn history. ■
Pizza spread to other parts of Europe and' to the United States, but it wasfft widely known here until after World War U, whetf the soldiers came home with a taste for the’yummy dish they’d had In Italy.
Now, it’s one of the most popular foods in the country.
In facts American children ages 3 to 11 prefer pizza over * all other foods, according to a recent Gallup Poll.
Apparently, the pies have it.

MicMgaa’s smoking baaW ill r e s t a u r a n t s c l e a n u p w i th c l e a n e r a h ?
By Jim Kasuba .Heritage Newspapers
(remains to be seen how or if a statewide smoking ban will feet business at restaurants
and bars.. JSome places have voluntarily
gone smoke-free prior to the statewide ban in an effort to draw more nonsmokers. Other restaurant owners believe it should be a matter of .personal choice, not dictated by government They believe some smokers won’t feel comfortable eating out or drinking at ahar and might just stay home.
Time will tell. Hie clock is ticking for smokers who light up in most public places. On May1. smoking will be prohibited to all bars, restaurants and work-. places, except in Detroit casinos, cigar bars, tobacco specialty stores, home CflSces and vehicles,
With few exceptions, that means if smokers wish to continue to dine out or enjoy a drink, they will have to stop going to restaurants or bars, refrain from smoking while there, or step outside for a smoke.
No one could be more pteaped about the ban thjm state Sen. Raymond Basham (D-Tsylor). Bor more than 11 years in both the state House of Representatives and more recently in the Senate/ he had tried to get the state legislature to pass a smoking ban. It M b ' happened in December.. ' Why did it take more than a decade before a bipartisan effort turned the ban into a reality?
Basham believes a report by thel^S. Surgeon General’s Office was the turning point.
“The surgeon generalsaid there is no such thing as a safe amount of secondhand smoke,’’ Basham said. "Adults who want to smoke, that’s their business But their rights end when smoke goes up the nose of someoneefea”
Additionally, the health-related problems caused by smoking affect everyone. Basham said * the state is always looking for ways to save scarce dollars, and with Medicaid being the Second largest budget item, hecalled the smoking ban "a no-brainer."
With 37 other states already havingappreved smoking bans, Michigan isn’t exactly breaking new ground.Srine proponentsof the ban say that the biggest obstacle has been foe restaurant lobby whose members feared a
loss of business.Basham^rees.•‘The restaurant lobby was'
foe biggest obstacle in delaying ‘ fob thing,’ ’he said. "It’sa shame v (lawmakers) were not hstening to foeircxwstiteehts."
Basham led the campaign, having understood what it’s like to be a smoker He started, smoking as a teenager, continued during his years of service in fownfotary. and then during his earty years as an employee at Fbrd Motor Co.
He said that when he learned the ill effects of-smoking, both to himself and those around him, he gave it up That was 25 or 30 years ago. With Michigan now in the majority of states to ban smoking at the woihplaoa, Basham believes it’s a tnmd that probably will continue to spill over to other steles, •
Many arearestaurants and bars were aware of that trend, anticipating that it would make its way to Michigan. Some are embracing foe ban, while others have their reservations.
Nick Piunti who alongwith family members owns and operates Siblev Gardens in Trenton, was one of the people who got a jump-start on foe ban. His family’s restaurant began prohibiting smoking at the beginning of February.

During one episode of “The Sopranos,” Tony was bawling out the crew for using foe slug-. gish economy as an excuse for light envelopes and he prodded Consigliere Silvio Dante to ' name the businesses that are typically least affected by recession.
‘Certain elements of the entertainment industry and our thing,”Sil said
Gaming, whether above or below board, is a mixture of both and, even though times are tough, there still are going to be Little League teams with new bats this spring, courtesy of the card room at foe local bowling center; and you still can walk into Greektown Casino oit,any “snow day” and shake hands with foe algebra teacher you used to compare football parlay cards with in high school as he ponders whether or not to hit a 16 against a paint card at the $5 blackjack table.
Sure things like that are tough to find when you’re talking about placing bets, but what’s a sure thing anymore0

‘We wantedtofostinguish ourselves a little bit—to do it on ourqwn timetable,” Piuntiaaid.‘ Most of our restauran t was no smoking anyway People got the idea that SiMey’s was headed in that direction.
“About 85 percent of our customers did not smoke, which is a hi^ier percentage foan most
^restaurant/bars, It was a little, easierdecisionforusfoanabar that has a lot of smokers,”
Even before foe total ban, Piunti said Sibley Gardens introduced nonsmoking Sundays about 18 months ago and attendance ticked up slightly
He said the tactthat so many ofoer states have instituted smoking bans with little negative impact on businesses is testament to the feet that it shouldn't hurt Michigan restaurants and bars. Although, he acknowledges that any loss of business in this tough economic climate would be painful.
“We’ve lost goorffrfends to cancer.so it’s foe least we could do to provide smoke-ftee din-
, fog, “Piunti said. “But when foe economy is tough, it as a tough
. decision to do. If the economy was better, we probably could have done it a couple years ago.’’
Lynda Collins, owner of Thompson’s Pizzeria in Chelsea, • took a similar approach to Sibley Gardens.
She started enforcing a no- smoking policy at foe beginning of the year.
“We were going to do this before the state mandates it in May,” Collins said.
Her daughters and many other family members workat Thompson's. Three co-wotkers became pregnant last year, which required a temporary moratorium bn smoking at foe Thompson's bar.
Another factor was the size of „ the restaurant. '
The pizzeria mostly caters to families with small children. Collins said she wanted them to feel comfortable bringing their - families-foere without having to deal with secondhand smoke.
Mike .Pemberton, who owns Frank's Cafe in Wyandotte and Shelby’s Bar in Dearborn, isn’t
as keen on foe idea of a smoking ban.
“It will definitely have a negative impact,” Pemberton said “Smoking, drinking, gambling - fotegs of that natime ~ go together! am nota smoker, but ftommyofcsemtionsfoegen- eralMOistodrmkandsmoke, We willlose some customers for- ever. They will decide 'enough is enough’and just not go out”• Pemberton said ifs a mend he’s
seen in foe business for the last several yeare He said inovased
in combination with stricter drmking-and4ri\1ng laws and an increase in prices, has led tofewer bar customers.
He said foe toaditimtol party occasions such as St Patrick's Day and New Year's Eve ‘have beendesfooyed,”
“The establishment has put the kibosh on tradttional bar holidays,” Pemberton said.
Basham likes to rite New Yoric state as an example of how a* smoking ban can help business, not hurt it.
Basham said that state’s restaurant owners were complaining it would hurt business.It didn’t he said. Data from foe New York City Department of Finance shows that tax receipts increased by 8.7 percent or approximately $1.4 million, after
-foe city went smoke five.Pemberton said that's not a
fair comparison.“Michigan is not New York.”
he said. ‘-New York is foe gateway to the world. Detroit is the gateway to nothing. This area has been marginal for the last two years. There is no comparison between the two.”
Pemberton said it’s his belief that if smoking is so bad. then stop selling cjgars and cigarettes. He also disagreed with the decision to provide a snicking option at casinos.
“Ohio is considering repealing its law against smoking in bars,” Demberton.said. “It has killed foe bar business. There should be more options for businesses.1 don’t think it should be banned and not just because l own a bar,It should be up to the bar It’s not like there are not other options.”
Even though he is against the ban, Pemberton said he will abide by foe law by enforcing it inside his establishments He said, however, that he and ofoer owners believe there is some ambiguity about how to handle patrons who reftise to put outfo e irrig a re tte s .
‘ T will try to abide to’ foe law , until a more equitable solution is sought,” he said. r
Taking an optimistic approach, hd said his hope is to have a “customer shuffle,” possibly losing some smokers but gaining nonsmokers.
Eric Williams, coowner with Tteri Prodan of the Mississippi Bayou Cajun Grill and J. Dubs bar in Riwrview, believes it’s a good idea The 15,000-squarofoot building caters to both foe dining and bar crowds.
Williams has owned thehar since 1984 and the restaurant for foe past two years. Wifosomany years in foe bar business, he knows a thing or two about the typical bar patron.
“Eight out of to bar patrons smoke at night” Williams said. “Smoking anti drinking go together; one complements the other”
Even so, Williams believes foe ban is a good idea.
“1 think everybody will adjust” he said, “thinking is
'more important than a cigarette. Some customers don’t want to go to a smoky bar I don’t think it will affect the restaurant.”
Fbr the most part, Williams’ restaurant and bar customers - don ’t come into contact with each ofoer. He said that 80 percent of the bar business comes after 10 p.m . Fridays and Saturdays when the restaurant is closed.
He said one thing bar owners must be prepared for, at least when the ban first goes into effect, is that smokers are, out of habit, going to light up
’T wfo have 30 or 40 incidents of people smoking in foe beginning,” he said‘Tkhow it’s going to happen. ”

reach are Sterling State Park in Monroe County and Lakeport in Port Huron. Both of those parks offer the advantage of being on the big water of- one of the Great Lakes.
To camp in a state park or state forest, guests need a , car sticker, which is $24 for an annual pass. The cost of state-run camping varies by campground from a high of $33 at a site with full hook-ups to $iSfbr a rustic site in a state forest. ■>.% . .■
Some state facilities also have cabins, camping .cottage or yurts for rent.
The Web site wwwmichigan. gov is a great source of infdr- mation. You can even check but campsite maps and make reservations right from the * site.
“Campers should make reservations for camping in the summer as well as cabins year- round," Herta. said
He added that about 70 per: cent of the state’s reservations are made online. You also can call 1-800-447-2757 to make reservations.
Water, water
Michigan is a boating mecca; but if you don’t own or can’t afford a boat, there still are ways to enjoy the water.
Swimming, fishing, canoei n g and kayaking are among
them.Fishing is likely the easiest.An all-species license is $28"
for Michigan anglers ($li .20 for seniors) and it is a ticket to enjoy the wide variety of fishing the state has to offer.
From panfish and MSs on the many inland lakes to walleye and perch in Lnke Erie, fishing in Michigan offers endless hours of relaxation and fun.
Again, the DNRE Web site is a great place to start for fish mg reports, tips and general information.
For the more active, it's hard to beat a summer day at-the beach.
There are inland beaches at places like Wamplers liake in Brooklyn, Proud Lake in Milford, Brighton Uke and Pontiac Lake, as well as many others.
If you prefer to swim in big water, Sterling State Park fronts !>ake Erie, Metropolitan Beach offers access to Lake St. Clair and Lake Port in Port Huron is your gateway Ur Lake. Huron,
All of these beaches are state parks or Huren-Clinton metroparks and require car permits,
Canoeing and kayaking are growing in popularity. Canoes
. and kayaks are relatively inexpensive and they open a whole new word of opportunities.
The Huron River cuts a path through Livingston, Lenawge and Wayne counties onits way to Lake Erie. The meandering waterway is perfect for leisurely paddling, wildlife hatching and fishing. Some claim it is the best canoeing river in southeastern Michigan._ Delhi and Dexter-Mills - metroparks offer canoe rentals as does the Proud Lake Recreation Area, There also

“What has driven the price of a home is financing," Puoco said “ When credit was easy to get, it caused prices to go up. People didn’t care what they were paying; they were locking, at can they make the payment.It raised the value for what you could get fora house,
“If lenders say no, it will kill sales.”
Prices are down and that means tax revenue may be down. Fuoco said.
Woddhaven saw a 12 percent redudion in assessments and Lincoln Park is down 17.75 compared to last year, he said,
Communities are scrambling to determine how much tax * revenue they will lose, he said, Declining assessments don’t always mean a tax reduction, howeveri because of how property is taxed.
Taxation is based on what is paid for the property and state law that limits tax increases.
Assessed values have been reduced hi2008, '09 and ’10, he said.
Residents unhappy with their assessments can appeal to the boards of review, in their communities, he said. The boards of review in most communities start this month and Fuoco expects they will be busy.
Sometimes people will complain that theyare overtaxed, especially if a foreclosed house next door sells for $20,000. he ; said- Even if it’s a house exactly like yours, that doesn't make the $20,000 foreclosure sale a valid assessed value for your house, or that house, he said.
If ybu are not willing to sell your house for that price, it’s not the true market value, he , said.
Not only are cities and towm ships suffering from the declining property values, but so are schools and counties, which also receive revenue from taxes, Fuoco said.
"It’s challenging now to balance a budget," he said.
"Some people probably overextended themselves to get a dream home, lose a job, then can’t make payments and then try to sell the house and. can’t get more than what it’s worth,
"It's a big, serious recession that we may be in for a few years." ■■ *
Much of what is happening in the housing market started with actions during the Clinton administration when guidelines for mortgages were loosened in an attempt to qualify more
.. people for homeowpership. Then, it was really easy to
qualify for a mortgage so more people bought houses, he said
“It put people into homes who shouldn’t have.been," Fuoco said. “They were maxed out. • They had no cushion, no wiggle room."
Assessed values have been droppingTor the last.five years.
“Downriver had a recession in the early 1980s and got • though it," FTiocosaid. "We will get through this one.,
"It's been a tough go.. Hopefully, things will start turning around a lot sooner, than predicted.” , „

Once you have enough kayaking experience to tackle the currents of the Detroit River, a whole new world awaits you.
Exploring the shoreline from the water is an interest-

it for *jUgh school is
a pretty special evening, It’s eveh more special at Chelsea High School, where high school football
Isn’t only the biggest game in town, it’s the only game in town on a Friday night in the fall.
Brennan Darwin will never forget Senior. Night. But for all the wrong reasons,
"My dad passed away three days before and his visitation was actually the day of Senior Night,” says Brennan, who somehow managed to play football against visiting Saline that night. It meant a lot to Brennan to play. Because he knew his father would have wanted him to play.
"It was hard,” Brennan admits. "I was hoping that he would be there for my last home game, I really wanted him to be there. So that affected me a lot that he wasn’t there.” . *' '’ Brian Darwin passed away of pancreatic
cancer on Oct, 19 at foe age of 47. He foil behina a family that loved him, cared for him and now remembers him, including his wife Brenda. Like Brian did in 1980, two of his daughters, Brynna and Brogan, graduated foom Chelsea High School;
Brennan was only a few months into his senior year when his father died. His young-" or sister, Bailey, was enjoying her first few months in high school as a freshman.
Brian also reft behind his love for sports.A good day for Brian would be going to work, coming home early to work on his car and then going to one of his children's sporting events. He woukfcheer, whistle and yell from start to finish. Everyone knew Brian was in the stands, especially his '’favorite players.”
Ironically, but not surprisingly, sports have been an invaluable crutch'during this difficult time in their lives. Brian introduced all his kids to sports and now they were using sports to help deal with the passing
of their ’’Coach.” Their mentor. Their hero, l i e i r father, ■!*
Brian passed away on a Monday.Visitation was on Thursday and Friday. Brennan went from the visitation on Friday to the football team meal to the field for Senior Night. The nextday was Brian’s ^ ftmeral.
"It was hard,” Brennan says. "I was at the visitation right up until I had to leave to go to the team meal. It was really awkward walking into that room because 1 knew * everyone was looking at me. Most of my teammates had been at the viewing so they a d ju s t camp from there. But it was hard.”
A few of the parents in the room came up to talk to Brennan and coach Brad Bush told him that no one would think anything differ ent of him if he didn’t feel like playing foot*

The C helsea basketball team is looking 'fo r-answ ers. Th ey bette r find , them soon o r the season is going to be over.
The Bulldogsliost rival Dexter tonight (see below) and then begin district play on
.‘■Monday (see all local disti*icT schedules on Page 3-D). Teams want to peak when the playoffs begin and the Bulldogs don’t seem to be quitethere yet,
Chelsea opens district play at 6:30 p.m. Monday at home 'against Ida The triple-header begins with Tecumseh vs. Milan at 5 p m. and concludes with Ann Arbor Gabriel Richard vs, Willow Run at 3:30 p.m.
"We still have t.ime to get things right.” Chelsea coach Robin Raymond said following his team's 80-66 loss Monday might to Ypsilanti Lincoln in a makeup game. "Lincoln is as talented a team as there is in our league. Thev-are very big and Wugh to defend."'
They certainly were for. the Bulldogs who gave up a season- high 80 points m the loss And Lincoln is big. Their starting - point guard KeAndrc Taylor is 6-4 and he scored 26 points. Their true big man underneath, Andrew Dillon (also 6-4). finished with 22 points and 14 rebounds.

The game was much closer than the final score indicates. . In fact, the Bulldogs were Within four points with .five minutes to play in the game.* “We tried to get some steals and they took advantage of our aggressiveness and beat us . with some back door plays/’ ■ Raymond said. "They also made nine free throws in the . ‘ fourth quarter.” ' •
Chelsea trained 16-15 after one quarter and 37-27 at halftime before cutting into the lead
in the third quarter. Lincoln took a 54-49 lead into the fourth quarter.

TONIGHT: DEXTER AT CHELSEA, 7 PM9 •
t o s w e e pDexter coach Randy Swoverland was asked
earlierm the week if his preadnaughts were goijig to heat rival Chelsea, in' tonight’s rematch/. • "If we score more points we will,’' he said with a smile. ■
But one thing neither team,did in the first meeting back in early February was score a lot of points. It was a defensive struggle front start to finish, just like most rivalry games are;.. Chelsea pulledoff a hard-fought 3f>-H5 victory at-Dexter on Feb, 5 when Stefan Elslager’s shot. didn't fall in the final seconds.
There were 12 lead changes in the first half alone and 18 for the game. There Were five ties, And the biggest lead'of the game was three points four times - three in the fourth quarter by Chelsea.
Look for much of the same tonight. M "The kids really lookfprward"to.this game and
it's a jreat tuneup for the district playoffs," Chelsea coach Robin Raymond said. ‘• I expect another low-scoring game. We want to push the tempo and make them chase us. The key for us will be getting up and down the court with the ball.,J
hey were at opposite ndsof the gym.
And at opposite ends of the long road to
i becoming a champion.On a late Friday afternoon
at Dexter High School, a small group of track athletes had gathered for a conditioning practice They were on the track running, stretching, getting ready It didn't matter that the track outside was buried in a - foot of snow * •
i “ At the other end of the track I stood Dexter’s Dan Flowers, taking a break from his workout in the weight room. While track, is weeks away from even starting, -Flowers is at the finish line of his dream. He’s a senior. State qua! ifier. One of the favorites •
! to win it all this weekend in j Auburn Hills at the wrestling i individual state finals.| But state titles aren’t won the i weekend before the state meet.; Athletes in the spring, like the I Dexter track team, win state .[ titles and league championships | when the snow is on the ground, j Basketball teams win state titles j in the middle of the summer I when their friends are going i swimming and the dedicated "players are headed off to basket- S ball camp.
And at Chelsea High School, football championships are won after school in-February - not in October or November.
Here’s a point that,wasn't lost on me after visiting the two , schools last week.
Is it coincidence that on Friday afternoon in Chelsea fro indoor track above the gym is ftill of football players? Yes, Football players. They were working hard, running sprints and putting themselves through different kinds of agility drills. 1 didn't see any coaches, This was a voluntary woikout. And the track was packed with strong, young men in gym shorts. /
I didn't see any football play-, ers at Dexter working out. The point? Well, anyone who follows these two programs already gets the point. ■
And you can also make the same point for the Dexter track team. I know they are pretty good every year and I know the cross country team knows the way to the state meet without

using Mapquest. There is a reason why they are so successful. The reason was in ftill view on Friday" ‘
And just ask the Dexter swimming team what it takes to be the best. They don’t just show up in November, put on their goggles and learn how to swim; You don’t win 12 conference titles in a row by accident or luck. Most of them swim year-, round and already are in great shape for that first practice. You could say that the road to the championship is already paved before they even hit the water
This brings me back to . Flowers and the main point. Championships, state titles and elite performers are .created over time and through hard work. Chelsea’s Travis .Osfrowski and Dakota Cooley wift be joining Flowers this weekend in Auburn Hills chasing their dreams. All three wrestlers are seniors. All three are close to achieving their dreams.
"It's what I’ve been dreaming about andworking towards since I was a freshman,”Flowers said.
Some of those athletes on the track on Friday at both Dexter and Chelsea looked like they were freshmen. Fbur years ago you can bet that Cooley Ostrowski and Flowers were working out in the off-season, sweating, hurting, practicing, preparing. They didn’t race home after school to play video games. They went to "run on the track" because there was something at the finish line that they wanted to accomplish.
Football is a good six months
away. Don t tell that to (he Bulldogs. Football is year- round. That’s how you win championships. You pack the
, track on a cold Friday afternoon in February. The same way Patrick Roberts. Stefan Elslager. Rachel Cooperrider and Elly Mioduszewski spend parts of their summers inside an empty gym. "
The basketball playoffs for . both boys and girls begin this month. The girls are already underway But the champions were crowned long ago. At this point, you either have it. or you don’t. Sure, there will be upsets and surprises, but hard work and years of preparation usually prevails f
Dexter wrestling coach Shane Rodriguez was asked recently about hrs wrestling team.
"We are going to be tough to beat next year." he said."We have some really talented wrestlers and the middle school had a great year and the Dexter wrestling Club is doing great.", That'show you build a program and create a-tradition look at the Dexter cross country and swimming teams or the Chelsea football team.
And success isn't always whether or not you win it all. Sometimes, it’s about expectations The Chelsea hockey team lost a rink full of good players off last year’s team/Still, they * improved over the season and proved they could play with pretty much any team in the state. _
The Dexter girls’ basketball team overcame a devastating injury to one of their key play ers early in the season and. have proven that the team concept can win basketball games.
Flowers is spending his final days before the wrestling championships tweaking, fine-tuning, perfecting, The hard work, dedication and commitment have all been accomplished.for this young man But for others, it’s just the beginning :
So don't frown when vour coach or parent tells you that championships arc won in the ' off-season, The proof was running on the track on a cold,. Friday afternoon
Opposite ends of the track. Opposite ends of the dream. But the same bluepr int-for success.

CHELSEA SWIMMING & DIVING: SEC TOURNAMENT
Chelsea ends upstate qualifiers
Sometimes miraclesdo happen • and you could say one happened last weekend at Skyline High School. The Chelsea BuUdog^swimramg and dive ream entered last weekend’s SEC Championships .with just four wins in 14 meets.
¥ot the firsi time in coach Dave Jolly's career, no swimmer had qualified for the state finals and it was a long shot that anyone would on the weekend. At best, the Bulldogs were hoping to finish third at the SEC meet, but after being routed by Dexter and beat soundly bv Adrian and Tecumseh, those thoughts were just that thoughts.
After Friday’s priiminar- "ies and Saturdays finals, the Bulldogs had pulled off the perfect meet. They had 100 percent , .best times in every event swam. They had qualified it of its 15 members off the team. They qualified in eight events for the state championships to be held at Eastern Michigan University in two weeks and had qualified all three of their divers for the regional competition.
The Bulldogs also captured second place overall in the SEC Championship meet, behind only Dexter, winners of now the last 12. It was truly an incredible two days.
A miracle, if you will. ^The 200 medley relay team of
N'lckDeppner, John Skidmore, Andrew wickens. and Nick Burris dropped nearly seven seconds from their previous ' best to earn the first state cut timeof 1:47.52. Their effort earned them third place hop ors and a visit to the awards podium • the first of many on Saturday The B relay also swam well dropp ing over 5' seconds as Austin Horn. Zach Ousley, Phillip A Wilson, and Colby Wrathall captured ninth place honors at 2:08,42;
Next up-was the 200 Freestyle. Casey Hirth led the way with an incredible prelim performance of 6 seconds of his best time to drop to a 1:55.54. His effort earned him a chance to swim in the championship finals,where he placed sixth overall. Blayde Ray also improved from bis regular season best to take 10th place overall at 2:01.78 Deppner was 19th and Horn was 23rd overall in the event.
The next event for the Bulldogs was the 200 IM. John Skidmore led the way for the * Bulldogs with a sixth-place finish in the finals with a season- best-2:16.14: Andrew Wickens • also scored for the Bulldogs* taking loth-place overall at 2:17.84. a career best for the jutiior. , Arborgast Wilson Was 16th and Ousley was 18th overall with superior times..
Chelsea s first individual . state qualifier came in the form of one of the more talented 6 freshmen to come through the; program in recent years, Nick Burris, m an emotional-final, -- captured All Conference Honors witha secbfid-place finish and his first trip to the state meet with his 23.31 clocking in the 50 freestyle. Teammate Jacob Bogarin was also in the champi-

Next up for the divers is the Southern Michigan Independent Swim League Friday nisfht atfi pm, in Tecumseh and then the MHSAA diving regional inert, which wiltbe held at Haslett high school on March 9.

\Tbm Olsen was 18th in the event with a season best of 26 83.
Chelsea lias been known as a diving power, due in large part - to veteran coach Eric Burris
"Eric seems to year after year get the 'very-best-out-of his athletes,’'Coach Jolly said.
Michael Heydlauff, a senior and co-captain of this year's squad, has been amongst the top three divers in the state all season. It was no surprise that he won the SEC white division crown for the Second straight ' year- with a score of 428.50 points. He became the only first-place champion for the Bulldogs.
Teammate Colby Wrathall was close behind with a score of 3:17,70 points to capture second. One of the biggest surprises of the meet was who placed third overall. Chelsea’s Robby Eyerard came out of nowhere to take the Honor scoring,234.50 points..;
This made a 1-2-3 sweep for the Bulldogs and puMhem ahead of Tecumseh and Adrian to stay: and assured-that each -* young man would be competing in next week's regional competi-
..tmn. 'Wickens and Hirth were back
up again in the 100 butterfly ' Wickens was amazing in the . event placing fourth overall with a time of 59.18. but also becoming the second swimmer to qualify for the state championships individually. Teammate Hirth was close behind at 1:00.62 to take sixth place overall,Logan Simpson was ninth over-, all in the consolation finals with a solid performance of 1:03,28r
In the 100 freestyle, Burris was up with' teammates Bogarin and Ray in a traditionally good event for the Bulldogs. Burris
■ swam a season-best time to, capture fourth place overall at’ 51.56. A truly unbelievable time for a freshman.
Bogarin dropped time as well stopping the clock at 52,92 to take eighth. Ray swam a season .best of 53.80 in the prelims, but fell off a bit in the finals. He still captured 10th place honors at 55.04. Tsm Olsen ended the*' event at 20th overall with a season and career best of 1:01.97
Austin Hornthe was the lone representative for the Bulldogs • in the 500 freestyle and swam m the finals after not hitting
the timefie was hopingfor. He made up for it in the finals with a season-best time of 6:23.88.
Chelsea’s sprint relays rose to the occasion and in recent years have proved to be one of the
most exciting races of the meet. Chelsea's Burris, Ray, Wickens. and Bogarin swam to a season best and state qualify ing standard of 1:34.81. It also became ^ the first event for Ray to participate in flie state championships. The B relay of Hirth. Simpson, Wrathall, Olsen ended up ninth withatimeofl:42.7Q.
Deppner was up next for Chelsea. The freshman was incredible dropping time in the finals to capture All Conference Honors and just miss the state cut. He dropped nearly * 4 seconds over the weekend stopping the clock at 1:00.91, only .02 away from the state cut. Simpson swam a season and career best in the event at 1:04.29 to capture ninth.
Senior co-captain Skidmore was Chelsea’s top brehstrokeras he also earned All Conference Honers placing 3rd overaU with a state cut time-of l:0?.27. Arborgast Wilson was awesome in the event with a season and career best in the event to take ninth and solidify his varsity letter. He was quite excited and proud of the accomplishment Freshman Zach Ousley also scored for the Bulldogs getting. his career best time in the event. Ousley ended the meet with an 11 th place finish at 1:13.88
The last event for the Bulldogs was the 400 freestyle relay All the Bulldogs had to <Jp is not DQ and
they would take seoond overall as a team. They did not DQ but rather stepped it up to gain yet another state qualification stan-
• dant Hirth. Ray Bogarin. and Burris dropped over ll seconds from the season best to stop the clock at 3:33.65 and place third- overall.
Chelsea will next compete at the Southeastern Michigan Interseholastic Swimming League Championships on March 53. Then they will be off the State Championships the following week

Michigan anglers enjojod a reopnd-breaking year in 2009 Five state records and one woridreroitf-werectoiftkjti . by Michigan anglers, according to the final tallies of the Departmentof Natural Resources and Environment’s Master Angler Program.
’This just once again illustrates why Michigan is one of America’s premier fishing de* tinations/’saidDNRE Fisheries Chief Kelley Smith. „
Certainly the bi^est head lines were garnered by Thomas Healyof Rockford who brought in a 41.4 pound brown trout from the Manistee River on Sept.9. Thefish • which has sinre been recogn ized as a world record by the International Game Fish Association • was one of 1,433 catches submitted to the DNRE’s Master Angler Program.
Healy was fishing with a crankbait when the 43.7>inch . monster struck.
The fish not only eclipsed the former world record - 40.25 pounds from the Little Red River in Arkansas - it demolished
. Michigan’s former standard of 36.81 pounds, caught out of Frankfort on Lake Michigan in 2007.
Healy’s brown trout wasn ’t the only Michigan fish that drew national attention.Less than a month later, Kyle Anderson of Rapid City caught an even bigger fish • a 50.5- pouhd state record Great Lakes Muskellunge, Fishing alone on Tbrch Lake, the Rapid City resi- . dent was trolling with s Muskie Magnet wdien the 55-inch monster struck.
Butit wasn’t only the big predators that eclipsed the old . state standards in 2009. Three - sunfish ‘two piunpkinseeds and a redear ■ beat or equaled the old state benchmarks.
Joseph Gross caught a redear that equaled thestate record of.1.97 pounds set in 2002 out of Thornappfe Lake. Gross, who was fishing on Grass kike in Jackson County on May 21 with a tear drop, also caught a redear weighing 1.94 pounds that same
dayThe old pumpkinseed mark,
of 1 .35 pounds set in 2004 on Baw Beese l^akewas eclipsed by AdamKruSkieof Fetoskey in June when he landed a im pound specimen from Pickerel Lake in Emmet County But Kriiskie’s record only lasted • until Oct 26, when Deaunti Kemp shattered the mark with a 2.15rpound giant caught on a leaf worm from Lake Nepessing in, LapeerCounty
ITteMaJrierAngier Program, began in 1973 when the department set minimum weight standards for each species of fish and began recognizing aiders (with a patch and axertifieate) who met or exceeded that marie .That year, 123 fish were entered for Master Angler consideration,
. In 1992, with anglervalues and practices changing, the. department starteda catcfithd- release category. Fish qualified for Master Angler status based on their length, as well as their wfeight: Anglers submitted a , total of 69ftsh in the new category in 1992, compared to 1,049 in the traditional catch-arid-keep category.
But the department was dearly tuned into a changing fishing ethic as catch-and-release entries gradual 'increased . andthe number of fish entered in the catch-and-keep category began to diminish. In 2003, catch- and-release fish outpaced Master Angler fish that were kept • 856 to 695. It’s been that way ever since.
lAst year was no exception. Michigan fishermen entered ; 930 fish in the catclvand-relea.se category and 503 fish that were kept.
The catch-and-release trend is certainly more apparent in sortie species than in others. Anglers submitted 122 freshwater drum (the most commonly caught-and- reteased fish of any species) in ; the catch-and-release category, but only 15 in the catch-and-keep category; Catch-and-release submissions outnumbered fish that were kept for black crappie, Chinook salmon, common carp.
flathead catfish, largemouth bass, muskellunge (both Great Lakes and northern), northern •pike; pumpkinseed, rock bass, smalhpouth bass, walleye and more.
The most common fish entered in 2009 were bluegills.* 80 catch-and-release fish that measured at least lO inchesand 52 kept fish, weighing at least 1 pound. A total ofl32’gills made the Masjgr Angler list.
The least oommon fish?Only one green sunfish, onetiger musky one northern hogsucker and one gizzard shad were entered in 2009 and all four of those fish were released. And one Master Angler smelt-,n.3 inches, taken with a dip net in Sawmill Creek in Houghton County and kept • made the listtoo.
In comparison, only one Waste- Angjer.bnook trout was released while 15 were kept. (It was a good year for big brook trout; in 20W only five brook frout made the list and aD were kept,) Anglers kept two Master Angaer rainbow trout, but didn’t report releasing any Just one pink saimoft made the list, in the catch-and-keep category One Atlantic salmon yvas entered in each category compared to just one in 2008 (which was kept).
’’Entries in the Master Angler Program vary from year to year” said Barbara Dilts, who coordinates the Master Angler Program for the DNRE's Fisheries Division, ‘They depend one everything from the weather to the size of the fish in a particular year-dass.”
The most entries ever submitted to the Master Angler Program occurred in 19$. when anglers entered 1,698 fish in the kept category and 619 fish that were released. The 19& season was highlighted by big salmon; anglers reported keeping 699 Coho and 216 Chinooks. In con-c trast, they reported releasing 22 Chinooks and four Coho that year : •

TWstate of a tumultuous time In Sfr Isaac Newton* WetsheadandstwuWere above past wofK<# which PwpteRoae Theater Company favorite "Vino vem n wwKfuciea,
8y Sean Dalton .'.Mertage Nc-wsoape's • ri
W ith his latest production, “Gravity" playwright David MacGregor has
defied the very concept." MacGregor has built a
reputation for smart scripts, lush productions and larger- than-life characters
This tgle of a tumultuous time in Sir Isaac Newton’s life is head and shoulders above past work, of which Purple Hose Theater Company favorite “Vino Veritas’’ is included.
“Gravity" takes place in September 1693 at Trinity College in Cambridge six years after Newton’s “Principia” was published.
MacGregor's portrayal of Newton is haggard and obsessed with a singular purpose of creating the philosopher’s stone, a pursuit started by man in the eighth century.
Alex Leydenfrost does a fantastic job of play ing the reclusive genius. The part requires an actor who can exhibit a good range of moods and emotions in one shot. Leydenfrost nails it, from being haunted and obsessed to jubilant and in love.
Will Young steals the show
several times as Newton’s nemesis Robert Hooke, a, seemingly malevolent lecher of a colleague who has a
' long-standing dispute with Newton, whose “Principia" be purports is a rip-off of his awn scholarly achievement.
He hits a crescendo during the second.act delivering a speech to Newton ridiculing hisachievements and his relationship with God, The talk has almost as noticeable an affect on the audience as it does on Newton easily the. hlghpoint of the entire show.
Young’s nimble changes in tone and demeanor also add another layer and exemplify the joy of witnessing a production that centers on a more mature veteran cast of actors, whereas so many shows in the county have the additional baggage of showcasing some newcomer’s writing or acting debut. „
Speaking of which, Michelle Mountain makes a much welcome addition as Brilliana Cavendish, a wealthy widow of questionable background who Wins over Newton by somehow successfully studying his work to the point of understanding.
Jim Porterfield is Newton confidant and close fHertd
John Locke, a famous philosopher whose name would endure the test of time alongside his friend’s.
Porterfield portrays genuine concern for his friend -throughout the play-whether he’s engaging in jhe childhood cajoling of a - seemingly - grounded friend.These interactions are often ftmny and always genuinely touching.
Mountain brings her usual charms and charisma to a role that she is well suited. Cavendish, a character that is flirty funny, witty, sexy and even dangerous fits her like a glove. -
-RhiannonRagiund gives a straightforward performance as Newton's housekeeper, who at times seems at a loss
„ in the face of her charge’s eccentricity, but occasionally shows that she cares for her disheveled genius like a child.
In a story featuring names such as. Newton and I-ocke, some folks in audiences might be concerned with how the science behind the men plays m “Gravity.”' MacGregor more than likely - knows his audiences would have a large population of educated folk filling the seats among a sizable crowd who . only know Newton for the
fact that an apple supposedly fell on his head and inspired him to write the theory of gravity. * *
The set has been master- ; fully crafted and managed by Daniel €. Walker, who has built an authentic sitting room and laboratory on the Purple Rose stage.
Walker ’s greatest achieve- : rnent'S are the use of wind
blowing in through a window and light cast from a strobe as if it were light coming.in through the window through ■ a prism in Newton's hand during one of the more magical scenes in “Gravity.”
Danna Segrest picked all the right props for Newton's experiments and Christianne
- Myers'handling of costumes is deserving of applause, particularly Hooke's getup.
MacGregor and Guy SaitvUle did well to pace the show using the stages of Newton’s philosopher's stone fetging experiment.
Insert your own gravity pun here, and then make an evening of witnessing one of the Purple Rose's finest shows yet, S ean Dalton is a reporter
