SIDNEY – Montcalm Community College’s dra-ma class presents “Meeting Sam,” at 2 p.m. Nov. 13and 2 and 4 p.m. Nov. 14 at MCC’s Barn Theater.

mantha, their creator. Samantha has stopped writ-
ing, and unless they can convince her to continue,they may remain unnished fragments forever.

Together, they have more than 20 years of experience.Moving back home from Virginia, they each missed the snow and the people inMichigan; they set up ofce and begantheir practice.
When it came time to open an ad-ditional ofce, the doctors decided thatthe smaller communities were the areas
they prefer to practice in. Howard City
was top on their list to open the secondlocation.
Howard City Chiropractic offersgentle and safe chiropractic and mas-sage therapy for the entire family, from babies to seniors. Back pain, neck pain,sciatica and headaches, this ofce cantreat the concerns you may have.
And if keeping hours at both loca-tions doesn’t keep them busy enough, both doctors also teach at local univer-sities. They enjoy people regardless of the setting and teaching is a passion for both. the ofce feels that it is very im-portant to give back to the communities. You might catch them offering a free wellness lunch of local businesses or giv-ing free massages to teachers and staff atTri County Schools.
Stop in to say Hi and introduce your-
self, they look forward to meeting you.

8/8/2019 River Valley News Shopper, November 1, 2010
Opening day of rie seasonis a wonderful time for many in Howard City. But this yearhas a special meaning for Vic-tor Scram. He moved here in1948 at the age of 11 with hisparents and six older brothersand sisters. He hunted smallgame as a youth and uponturning 14 he was old enough
to take part in his own openingday deer hunt. He grew up andcontinued to hunt even aftermoving to the metro Detroitarea to raise a family with his wife, Maxine, now of 53 years.There has been one constantthread through his life’s jour-ney. He has never missed cel-ebrating an opening day.
This year marks the 60straight year Victor will spend with friends and family in the woods, hunting. When askedhow many deer he has har- vested in his life, the honestanswer was “I don’t know, alot.” What he does know, isthat after his retirement in1992, he sold a fty ve gal-lon drum of antlers, a trophy
nine-point mount he killednear U.S. 131 in 1977 and amonster (rocking chair) muledeer he downed on one of hismany trips to Wyoming. Heand Maxine sold their housein Davisburg to move northinto the family’s house inHoward City. He has many fond memories of hunting with his mother Rachel, who,in 1964 held the women’sstate record for a whitetail 8point. The rack still hangs inthe homestead’s garage. Hisfather Andy loved to sh. Healso guided “city hunters” on
bird and small game hunts inhis younger years.So as the leaves fall and
the temperature drops, anoth-
er opening day draws closer. When it arrives one thing isfor certain, Vic will awakenfrom a restless, excited sleep well before daylight. The tra-ditional smell of tenderloinsand onions from last year’sharvest frying in the pan willll the air. Vic will dress forthe weather in camo and or-ange, head to the woods, andawait the dawn, camaraderie,stories and excitement that go with 60 years of tradition.

One in every six people in the world will suffer a stroke in hisor her lifetime regardless of age,gender, ethnic origin or country.The American Heart Associationand World Stroke Organization want you to take action now tolower your chances of having astroke. There are steps you can
take to make a difference:
What You Can DoTake the American Heart As-
sociation’s My Life Check healthassessment (strokeassociation.org/worldstrokeday), an onlinetool that calculates how healthy you are, teaches how to createan action plan to achieve betterhealth and provides simple stepsto change unhealthy behavior.
The WSO also offers six sim-
ple steps that can help you avoid America’s No. 3 killer:
1. Know your personal risk
factors for stroke: high bloodpressure, diabetes and high bloodcholesterol.
2. Be physically active and ex-ercise regularly.
3. Adopt a healthy diet.4. Limit alcohol consumption.5. Avoid cigarette smoke. If
you smoke, seek help to stopnow.
6. Learn to recognize the warning signs of a stroke and how to take action by dialing 9-1-1 im-
mediately.
Doctor’s AdviceJeffrey Saver, M.D., chairman
of the American Stroke Associa-
tion’s Stroke Council and direc-tor of the UCLA Stroke Center,said: “Stroke occurs when a blood vessel in or leading to the brain bursts or is blocked by a bloodclot. When this happens, part of the brain cannot get the blood oroxygen it needs, so it starts to die;depending on the severity, immo-
bility or paralysis may occur.“Stroke may deprive a person
of his or her livelihood, dimin-
ish independence and create a burden that must be shared by family members and society. So by avoiding stroke, we can helpreduce the burden to our lovedones and society.”

Michigan Gov. Jennifer M. Granholm has proclaimed October as
“Michigan Car-Deer Crash Safety Awareness Month.”In Michigan in 2009 there were 61,486 reported car-deer crashes with 10 motorists killed and 1,648
injured. About 80 percent of all car-deer crashes take place on two-lane roads between dusk and dawn.
(Of the reported car-deer accidents Kent County is number one and Montcalm County is number five in
the state’s highest accident rate).
What can you do?
• Stay aware, awake, alert, and sober.
• Remember, safety belts are your best defense in any collision.
• Be alert for deer in spring and fall, especially at dawn and dusk.
• Heed deer crossing and speed limit signs, particularly on two-lane roads.If a crash is unavoidable:
• Don’t swerve!
• Brake firmly
• Hold on to the steering wheel.
• Stay in your lane.
• Bring you vehicle to a controlled stop.
We at Hill’s Body Shop have noticed an increase in deer hits in the month of October through December
and a big surge directly after the time change, because more people are still on the road at sunset.
If you have had the misfortune of hitting a deer, Hill’s Body Shop, Inc. is here to help restore your ve-hicle to its pre-accident condition. Your insurance company may refer you to one of their “preferred”
repair facilities. These body shops have an agreement with your insurance company to keep down the
cost of your vehicle repair in exchange for referrals. We believe it’s not in your best interest to take
your vehicle to these contracted repair shops. We believe safety and quality should come before cost,
whereas these “preferred” shops seem to put cost before quality and safety. We believe it to be unethical
to cheapen your vehicle repair to save your insurance company money. You’re our customer, not your
insurance company’s. Hill’s Body Shop, Inc. has always and will always provide the finest repairs avail-
able regardless of DRP contracts.
For more information about what you can do to avoid a car-deer accident and what to do if you do havea car-deer accident, please visit our website http://www.hillsbodyshop.com/

Sugar Cravings is an AddictionRefined sugar has been found to be far more addictive than cocaine -- one of the most addictive substances
currently known! And, it’s important to remember that refined sugar is not the only culprit you have tocontend with if you’re craving sweets. Starch, in the form of grains and potatoes, metabolizes into sugar in
your body and should therefore also be limited within your diet if you want to lose weight and feel better. Itis also important to remember that your taste buds are likely not the best indicators of what foods are good
for your body.
Fortunately, there are ways to remedy this problem and put an end to the cycle.
Modify your diet – A strategic diet that emphasizes good fats, and avoids blood sugar spikes will re-sensitize your cells’ ability to hear hormonal messages correctly. “Eat Right for Your Type”, by Peter D’Adamois usually very beneficial
Re-educate your taste buds – This is simply a matter of “clearing” your palate of grains to eliminate your body’s learned response to sugar. Once you’ve abstained from sugars and grains for awhile, you’ll notice thatother foods will taste better than ever.
Battle the physical aspects of your sugar cravings – Anyone who exercises intensely on a regular basis will know that significant amounts of cardiovascular exercise is the cure for sweetcravings. The mechanism is related to the dramatic reduction in insulin levels thatoccurs after exercise. Elevated insulin levels are one of the primary reasons for foodcravings and if insulin levels are reduced, most of these cravings simply disappear.
Battle the emotional aspects of your sugar addiction – A great way to help youovercome your food cravings is through the use of Emotional Freedom Technique(EFT). In addition to sugar being excessively addictive, there is almost always anemotional component to food cravings as well. And while most people are ableto find success in overcoming their physical addiction, they are still left with theemotional addiction. This technique eliminates negative emotions that sabotage
your health, and replaces them with positives. Read, “The Happiness Code” by Gary Laundre.
