After 30 years, the Palmer Park Art Fair is back.
The fair, which organizers say is the only large outdoor juried art fair in Detroit, will take place Saturday and Sunday in one of the citys most storied neighborhood parks. The work of about 50 artists will be on display, including those from Detroit and around the country. The rebirth of the fair, which fell victim to the citys decline 30 years ago, adds another voice to the chorus proclaiming the role of art in helping to spur the budding renaissance of Detroit.
The event promises a few twists on the traditional art fair model, replacing rows of tents with booths organically integrated with the trees around the pond within the park. There will also be artist demonstrations, a number of large-scale installations and local food trucks on hand to make sure visitors dont go hungry.
Admission to the fair is free, but a Saturday-night VIP Gala Party is also on tap featuring a concert by the venerable Detroit blues star Thornetta Davis. Admission to the gala is $75.
Palmer Park Art Fair
Time: 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday and noon-5 p.m. Sunday.
Cost: Free admission
Location: Palmer Park is on the north side of Detroit between McNichols and Seven Mile Road. It borders Woodward Avenue on the east.
Parking: Organizers suggest three options. You can park along Merrill Plaissance, which is the main street through Palmer Park (enter off Woodward). There is also parking in the adjacent Apartment District, including $5 attended parking at the Unity Temple, 17505 Second Ave. You also may park along Woodward in designated spaces and walk through the park toward the art fair.
Gala Party with Thornetta Davis: 7-10:30 p.m. Saturday. $75. South end of Lake Frances Merrill Plaisance just west of Woodward

Southeast Alaska's Inside Passage is now a precedent-setting wildlife viewing trail.
When a white bear crossed the path of Juneau photographer Pat Costello on Friday, he understood why the Canadians named such bears after spirits and ghosts.
...the recently reported white bear in Juneau. Matt Robus, deputy director of the state Department of Fish and Game's Wildlife Conservation Division, is quoted "We manage wildlife by populations, not by individual animals." This makes perfect...
The eagles are returning to the Homer Spit, as the "Eagle Lady" has resumed her winter feeding program. The professional photographers and expensive "photo safaris" will follow soon.
Juneau doesn't have a garbage bear problem; Juneau has a garbage people problem, said Laurie Sica, environmental zoning inspector for the city.
Doug Larsen deserves appreciation for a job well done as director of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game's Wildlife Conservation Division. I've dealt with Larsen in both his role as Southeast regional supervisor for the division and his capacity as division director. HE has impressed me with his friendliness, professionalism, conscientiousness and willingness to listen.
HYDER - In a rare predatory attack, a brown bear killed and partially ate a Ketchikan man at a campground near a bear viewing area, Alaska State Troopers said today.
Juneau police, fire officials, hospital officials and state troopers reported:
A bald eagle crashed through a window of a Ketchikan home and landed in the living room, scattering broken glass, feathers and a salmon carcass across the floor.
Some spending items tucked into the governor's recent state budget proposal are getting cheers from commercial fishermen.

Bio Health food, but not so big, not so discountPosted on 09 / 05 / 2012
I nearly fell off my bike when I saw the "BIG BIO Discount" sign on the back road from OBI. It seemed like an odd location for a bio/organic store, but, hey, it's Neukölln! Inside there were a ton of wines, a decent selection of beer and juice. The food items seemed pretty standard, more for vegetarians than for vegans, but a decent selection. The prices seemed a little bit cheaper than other bio stores, and a little bit more than some items in a regular store, but if you are looking for nutritional yeast, this is the place. Cheapest in town!
The store is a bit bigger than a BioCompany or LPG, but nowhere near as big as it looks in the picture supplied here. At any rate, worth stopping by and checking out. Try the Pinkus beer. The unfiltered 'Special' is amazing!

Cons: not so discount, not so big, not enough different

Posted 28 February 2004 - 03:24 AM
Ok so i want to get my xbox modded. I figured the easiest way is too do the 007/ma exploit. I'm probably going to rent one of these games tommorow. So can someone break it down for me on how exactly how to do it.?? I've read the tutorial but i just don't understand. So far the only thing that i have that is required is a memory card and action replay.

text: Am seriously thinking about doing a 400k bike race in a few months time, however I haven't been doing any serious training at all recently. Not that I have ever been much into the whole serious training thing anyway, however 400k is a long way. So I'm not so sure if I'm going to be able to do my normal "just go out and do it" on no training. Hence any hints/suggestions about how I could go about preparing for this would be handy? Am thinking if I just manage to squeeze in one (or maybe two) 200km bike rides each month beforehand that could be enough???

Hyatt Place Lansing brings stylish accommodations to The Heights
Wednesday, June 03, 2015
Visitors to Lansing have a new place to stay as the Hyatt Hotels opened its select service brand in Greater Lansing the first week of May.
Situated at the northern edge The Heights at Eastwood, the
Hyatt Place Lansing
combines style, innovation and 24/7 conveniences to create a modern guest experience. Spacious rooms average 500 square feet—about 100 to 125 square feet bigger than the typical hotel room—and feature "suite" amenities like a mini-frig, a cozy corner couch, cable TV and complimentary WiFi.
The Hyatt Place is the only Hyatt brand property in Mid-Michigan. While close to high-end shopping, restaurants, and nightlife, the property offers its own onsite food and beverage. The Gallery Kitchen features casual foods like sandwiches, burgers, flat bread and pizza, as well as a coffee and cocktail bar. Breakfast comes free with the guest stay and includes hot and cold selections like skillets, egg sandwiches, multi-grain breads and pastries, fresh fruits, yogurt, oatmeal, juices and coffee.
"Our goal is to make everyone comfortable while they're here," says Jennifer Moeckel, Hyatt Place Lansing Director of Sales. "We gear ourselves toward being stylish, innovative and built on 24-hour convenience."
The Hyatt Place targets business travelers during the week. On weekends, the focus shifts to casual visitors who come to the area for sports, arts and culture, or family or social activities.
"Our location can't be beat," Moeckel says. "Guests can walk to shopping and dining, and the stores are perfect for families, students and everyday travelers. As The Heights expands, we'll have an all-encompassing area with restaurants, movie theatres and entertainment that will make it all come together."
The six-story Hyatt Place Lansing features 125 guestrooms, and 2,000 square feet of meeting space for groups up to 100 people. An onsite shuttle can transport guests to destinations within a five-mile radius. The new hotel created six managerial positions and 34 hourly positions for a total of 40 jobs.

Barbs Designs transforms big events into small business
Wednesday, October 08, 2014
For Barbara Joseph, the party never ends.
As the owner of
Barbs Designs,
Joseph is in the business of providing the highest quality decorations for special events from weddings to birthday parties to baby showers.
"I love working with people and helping them celebrate," says Joseph. "It's rewarding to create something beautiful and exciting and to help people reach something they've been dreaming of."
Joseph launched Barbs Designs after her children graduated high school and she found she had extra time on her hands. She had worked for years in local government, and decided to change career paths by taking a part-time job as an events stylist.
Joseph combined what she learned on-the-job with her life-long experience organizing parties for families and friends and opened her home-based business in DeWitt in July 2013. Just recently, she added two part-time employees. She also relies on the continual support of her husband and sewing wiz mother.
"I have a huge inventory of products," says Joseph who is also venturing into floral design. "Everything from linens to centerpieces to candelabras, and even a wooden cake stand custom-designed by my husband."
Joseph can show clients actual samples of display items and linens, and keeps an extensive sample book of different fabrics. In some cases, she can custom-design linens for clients.
"My mom is my seamstress," she says. "She's the one behind me and supporting my creative side."
Joseph averages about two events a month for half the year, and about three during the spring and summer wedding and graduation seasons. She says she has planned events for small groups all the way up to those for 350 guests.
"Even though I'm a small business, I have big ideas," says Joseph. "I never forget that each and every event is special. I want to always have that one-on-one with each customer and make them happy."

DeWitt CrossFit gym rebrands, grows in popularity
Wednesday, August 13, 2014
While they recently rebranded their year-old gym, Brad and Bailey Hillard have remained true to their commitment to build community through functional, athletic training.
In mid-July, the Hillards opened the doors to
Lake State CrossFit
—a new, expanded version of CrossFit Malleus. The new gym, they say, provides space to "stretch out," as well as a memorable, easy-to-remember name for those interested in tackling the CrossFit phenomenon.
Located just a few doors down from their original facility in Clark Corners, Lake State CrossFit will continue to offer a certified training curriculum that provides an all-inclusive workout and fitness program for customers of any fitness level.
"My wife and I have always been athletes," says Brad who wrestled and played football throughout high school, and went on to coach. "It's in our nature. Once we started training in CrossFit, we believed in the concept and wanted to share it with others."
CrossFit, Brad explains, is an all-around, varied strength and conditioning program that pushes participants to perform at their highest possible level. Developed in the late 1990s, CrossFit workouts include interval training, weightlifting, gymnastics, calisthenics, plyometrics, running and other exercises.
"You're not a specialist in anything," says Brad. "Your goal is to be an all-around good athlete."
The Hillards say they build community at their 6,100-square foot gym through instructor-led training and social events related to gym activities. Since originally opening in June 2013, the gym has grown from just a handful of members to more than 80 strong.
"We're excited to see what the future brings," says Brad. "We're going to bring a kids program here eventually, as well as specialty courses. We want to offer a boot camp, too, that provides an on-ramp to people who might be feeling a little intimidated."
The Hillards invite anyone to give the intro course a try and to join the no-contract gym at 1161 E. Clark Lake Road, Suite 260. Lake State CrossFit employs two staff in addition to Brad and Bailey, with plans to add more as the gym grows in popularity.

Dewitt newly-weds open JJ Frozen Yogurt, create jobs
Wednesday, July 23, 2014
Tham Doan and John Nichols devised plans for launching their own business shortly after getting married two years ago.
"We thought about it, started planning, and got the location in January," says Doan. "It seemed like a good idea and we decided to do it."
In late June, Doan and Nichols opened
JJ Frozen Yogurt
in DeWitt. The shop brings a fresh and delicious twist to the strip mall at 13070 Old U.S. 27, and offers a rotation of 100 flavors and varieties of the satisfying and healthy snack.
As a nurse at Sparrow Hospital, Doan is attuned to making healthy dietary choices that take food allergies into account. Nichols, too, understands the challenges of food sensitivities, having grown up with family members with severe allergies to dairy.
JJ Frozen Yogurt, Doan says, will carry traditional frozen yogurts as well non-dairy, sugar-free, fat-free and low-fat varieties. Customers can review posted nutrition and ingredient information for each yogurt and dozens of topping in the self-serve shop. Doan says, too, she is exploring ways to dispense peanuts and chocolates separately for the benefit of allergy-sensitive customers.
"We can tell you how the yogurt is made and what the ingredients are," says Doan. "We focus on customer service and have a very nice setting with free Wi-Fi."
Doan and Nichols completely rehabbed the small space that seats up to 35 customers. Contractors redid plumbing, electrical, air conditioning and heating, and installed equipment for storing and dispensing foods. The husband-wife team also rolled up their sleeves and contributed to the top-to-bottom overhaul that included fresh paint, new floors and a new ceiling. The couple also received help with business planning from the
Michigan Small Business Development Center,
housed at Lansing Community College.
Doan says she plans to offer coffee in the next few months and to expand the hours to accommodate early-risers. More immediately, she will add smoothies and tea to the summer line-up.
Doan works occasionally in between her nursing shifts, while Nichols runs the shop. JJ Frozen Yogurt employs three staff with plans to add a couple more once coffee services are up and running in the fall.

Family-owned auto parts company converts to NAPA brand
Wednesday, July 09, 2014
They say it's all in a name, but for Dick Seehase, it's also all in the family.
For 51 years, Seehase has been among the family members owning and operating
The Parts Place.
And while the Holt-based car parts company has spanned three generations and grown to nine mid-Michigan locations, the company prides itself on providing the highest level of customer service.
That quality of service, Seehase says, will be further ensured as the distributor of automotive parts and equipment switches affiliation from CARQUEST to NAPA, and adds an 18,000-square foot warehouse as the hub.
"It made perfect sense to go with a more traditional auto parts company," says Seehase of the changeover. "With our 50-year-old history and NAPA's 90, we'll be well-recognized and even more prepared to service our customers."
All eight stores will carry NAPA inventory and retain the nearly 60 professional staff who work in locations in East Lansing, West Lansing, Holt, Charlotte, Mason, Eaton Rapids, Williamston and Stockbridge.
The newly purchased warehouse on the corner of Waverly and St. Joseph will result in about three new staff joining the company. The space will also allow The Parts Place to carry about $2 million more in additional inventory to service all locations.
Seehase says the commercial market makes up about 70 percent of The Parts Place customers, with the remaining 30 percent coming from do-it-yourselfers.
"Years ago, lots of people could work on their own vehicles, but as the complexity has increased, we began servicing more commercial clients," says Seehase. "Our employees come from all different facets of the market, too, and know the business."
Seehase says The Parts Place changed affiliation in late April. He says he's anticipating the NAPA partnership will spur annual sales growth from about $9 to $15 million in the upcoming year.
"The NAPA brand name is one of the most recognized brands in the United States," says Seehase. "We're hoping to add more stores once we get our feet on the ground."

Restaurateur buys landmark Terranova's Market, hires four local staff
Wednesday, March 05, 2014
Faez Toma woke up one morning and knew he needed a change. He was ready, he said, to get out of the "rat race" and to pursue a different path in the restaurant biz. Something, he said, was right around the corner.
Toma found that change in Terranova's Market. And while nearly two hours up the freeway from Toma's home in Farmington Hills, the small grocery store in
was Toma's dream come true.
"I knew when I walked in that bingo—this was it," says Toma, who jokingly credits his childhood nickname "Fonz" for fueling his quest for a simpler life. "It was the little market in the little town I was looking for."
Toma purchased the 2,500 square foot store at 129 S. Bridge St. in December. He kept the moniker of the landmark store, and went about making incremental changes while retaining Terranova's small-town flair.
"I knew that something could be realized here with just a little bit of effort," says Toma. "The store was already a success but I knew it had even more potential."
Toma drew on his experience and family background in the liquor and restaurant business and expanded Terranova's spirits section to include craft beers, specialized bourbons and scotches. He also began changing up the grocery aisles to accommodate specialty items from small distributors.
"You can go anywhere and get a can of chicken noodle soup," says Toma. "Sure, I'll carry that, but I want my shop to be known for finding those specialized items you can't find anywhere else."
In January, Toma installed new double-decker ovens for making hot subs and stone-fired pizzas. He also stocks a cooler with homemade salads and sandwiches, and plans to offer more to-go foods as the store's kitchen remodel gets underway.
In keeping with the community, Toma hired four staff from DeWitt to help him run the market. He hopes, too, to localize his own life and cut down on his daily commute by moving his family closer sometime soon.
"DeWitt is a great and fantastic community," says Toma. "With me coming from a bigger city, it's refreshing to have that small-town experience."

St. Johns mom opens gym to get kids out of house and moving
Wednesday, February 26, 2014
Like a lot of moms with kids, Casie Grams was bouncing off the walls when snow, ice and freezing temperatures kept her family confined to the great indoors.
In January, Grams decided to take that pent-up energy elsewhere and opened
PowerPlay Kids Fun & Fitness
in St. Johns for kids ages 10 months through fifth grade.
"I see it giving children an outlet aside from being stuck at home inside," says Grams who has three children under 12. "Everything here is designed to build confidence. It's a non-competitive environment and meant to be fun."
The 1,600-square foot gym at 701 W. State Street is set up to accommodate a variety of activities, including gymnastics, indoor soccer, hockey, basketball, tennis, relays, playground games and more. Grams herself oversaw the light remodeling of the previous sports retail store, including laying new carpet, painting and making it "kid friendly" by bringing in equipment that includes a 25-foot Air Trak, balance beam, tumbling mats, gymnastics bars and stationary bikes.
"I also have a variety of other things like hula-hoops," say Grams whose background and certification is in gymnastics. "Every week we'll have a different theme."
PowerPlay offers several five-week classes that are set up according to ages, grades and siblings. She also offers a boys-only class and open gym twice a week. Parent participation is required for children 3 ½ or under.
"Eventually, I hope to expand and offer more classes," says Grams who runs the classes with the help of her mother and her nephew. "I just wanted to start somewhere."
In addition to 20 different classes and open gym, PowerPlay offers parent's night out, birthday parties and camps.
"It's an outlet," says Grams. "It's something fun to do and can help combat obesity. My goal is to just encourage a healthy lifestyle for kids."

Craft & Mason spills the beans on single-source fresh coffee
Jeremy Mason
Wednesday, February 05, 2014
Jeremy Mason was never much of a coffee drinker until he came upon an espresso place that sourced beans from local farmers. From then on, he was hooked.
"When I find something I like, I look at it from as many angles as I can," says the co-owner of
Craft & Mason Roasting Company
, a brand new micro roaster in Lansing. "I started visiting coffee shops that used small roasters and checked out direct trade arrangements for ordering green beans."
Mason bought his first beans from
Sweet Maria's
—a home-roasting site that sources beans directly from small farmers. He did his first roasts in a popcorn popper, and when he shared a cup with his friend, Eric Craft, they decided to brew up something bigger.
The two friends purchased several hundred pounds of beans, bought a small roaster, and launched Craft & Mason in a 500-square-foot warehouse. Since December 2013, the two have roasted once a week, filling orders for local restaurants, coffee shops and individuals.
"We feel coffee tastes best when it's fresh," says Mason, who sells online direct and ships within one to two days. "If you can drink coffee within the first two weeks of its roast, it's the best."
Mason believes that enjoying coffee that's fresh roasted from a single origin can be as unique as eating food from a great local farm. His goal, he says, is to honor small coffee farmers by finding the optimal spot in each roast that maximizes the complex flavors of the beans.
"It's a little bit like wine," says Mason of the varieties he sources from El Salvador, Columbia and Sumatra. "All the questions you might ask of a cabernet or pinot wine, you could apply to coffee."

CrossFit Malleus opens in 2,500 sq ft DeWitt space
Brad Hillard, CrossFit Malleus
Wednesday, June 26, 2013
A new business has brought a new kind of workout to DeWitt.
CrossFit Malleus
opened on June 17, offering the unique group training style exercise in a 2,500 square foot facility on E. Clark Rd.
CrossFit is in fact what brought owner Brad Hillard and his partner together. Unsatisfied by their regular workouts, they both found better all-around strength training results from the format.
"I'm stronger all around," says Hillard. "I feel confident to take on any physical task. Also, with a group setting you get the natural competitiveness that occurs naturally in humans to come out which in turn helps generate motivation to try your best."
Hillard and his partner began renovating the CrossFit Malleus facility in May, and finished in early June. Renovations included demolition, ceilings and flooring. They plan to get involved with the communities through local events and helping, and hope their presence in the Clark Corners will attract others to the development.

Family ice cream business connects with community in Dewitt
Max Dalman, iScream
Wednesday, May 08, 2013
The Dalman family has long had a dream of running an ice cream shop, and now that plan has come to fruition in their hometown of Dewitt with iScream. The new 1,000 square foot shop serves ice cream, soft serve and low-calorie, high-vitamin smoothies.
"We are in the center of Dewitt," says Max Dalman, who manages the store owned by his parents. "We're right by the schools, and are tons of neighborhoods over here."
The Dalmans have been working on iScream since last fall, and the ice scream shop opened about a month ago. The shop currently employs a staff of eight. Despite the snowy weather during their opening, the community has come out to support the business, and they've found themselves even busier than expected.
The concept of iScream includes reciprocating that community support. The Dalmans also have a smoothie booth that they bring to local events to offer smoothies to attendees. The organization running the event receives a portion of the proceeds of every smoothie sold.
"We're in it for the fun," says Dalman. "We're trying to keep prices as low as we can and offer the best we can to the community."

Great Lakes Family Dental opens new, 3,300 sq ft DeWitt Twp location
Patricia Hart, Great Lakes Dental Group
Wednesday, March 27, 2013
Great Lakes Family Dental
did more than simply double its footprint when it expanded into a new, 3,300 square foot building in DeWitt Twp on January 1. From new dental services to a new community outreach program, the practice has grown in all sorts of ways.
"We outgrew our space," says Patricia Hart, general manager of Great Lakes Dental Group. "It was outdated."
Growth has been the name of the game for Great Lakes Dental Group since it purchased retiring local dentist Dr. Tomkie's practice, which had been in business for 30 years. Under new ownership, the practice grew by three employees, and now plans to add two additional staff members in the new office.
"Moving out of that space allowed us to do more," says Hart. "It's pretty homey. It's meant to take away from being hit with that feeling of being nervous to be at the dentist."
Great Lakes Dental Group broke ground on the new building in mid-August of 2012. Since moving into the new location in January, the practice now offers such new services as digital x-rays, free cancer screenings and new teeth whitening techniques.
In addition, the growing office is offering a free dental clinic on April 16 for those without dental insurance or other assistance.

Chelsea Lumber opens new digital project center in Dewitt, adds five jobs
John Sabin, Chelsea Lumber
Wednesday, October 03, 2012
The digital age is changing the way people shop, and that's not limited to clothes and books. The century-old family business
Chelsea Lumber
is now using digital technology to extend their reach with a new showroom in
"Everything is done with digital imaging, so people come in a select colors and samples," says John Sabin of Chelsea Lumber's new Dewitt project center. "We're open to the public, and they can order lumber, and we can deliver right out of the central hub in Chelsea."
According to Sabin, the new 800 square foot project center is the first of its kind in the area. The project center currently operates on limited hours and by appointment, but Sabin says he hopes to expand into regular hours soon. Five jobs, including sales and a kitchen and bath specialist, have been added with the new office.
"People are Internet shoppers now," says Sabin. "They work and they're busy, so they can come in and do it at the office here, or from their homes. It helps a lot for us to be able to say to people, 'Hey here's what you're looking for, and we've got it.'"
The Chelsea Lumber project center opened in Dewitt in May. The office services both residential and commercial customers with projects large and small.
Historic DeWitt school to receive 9,700 sq ft addition to become senior living center, up to 15 jobs
Tim Brannan, Brandino Properties
Wednesday, June 13, 2012
When Dr. Tim Brannan and his partner at Brandino Properties came across the vacant Gunnisonville Elementary Building in
, they saw the potential for the site to not only return to its roots as a place of learning for children, but so much more. The developers plan to renovate the 26,000-square foot school, as well as build a 9,700-square foot assisted living facility called
Gunnisonville Meadows
on the same site.
"For assisted living, we thought it would be an ideal setting," says Brannan. "You'll come right off the highway and you're about five minutes away, and then you're just five minutes away from Eastwood [Towne Center]. Families can come and visit and then take their senior out for dinner."
Brannan was inspired to open an assisted living facility after his father was diagnosed with dementia and Alzheimer's and he and his mother had a difficult time finding the right local facility for his care.
"There really wasn't anyone who was well versed in the issues he was having," Brannan says. "We wanted to provide some memory care options."
Gunnisonville Meadows will share a site with the Blending Learning Academies charter school and Little Scholars Preschool and Childcare Center that will soon open in the renovated school. Interaction between students and seniors is expected to add to the learning experiences for kids and life enrichment for residents.
Work on the 20-bed facility will begin soon and Brannan hopes it will be open for residents by late 2012 or early 2013. He plans to employ 12 to 15 workers there.
DeWitt Township home to fourth area Vision Collision
Jim Rossman, Vision Collision
Wednesday, March 21, 2012
The team at
Vision Collision
sees themselves as more than just a new business in
; they see themselves as a new member of the community.
"We're very involved with the schools and the communities where we're located," says Jim Rossman, Business Development Manager for Vision Collision. "We've given three cars away, we've been involved in the Silver Bells parade and community car washes. We'll be having a grand opening in late May, and hopefully the high school will have a team here doing a wash for their sports boosters."
The grand opening will be for the business' fourth Lansing-area location. The 13,278 square foot DeWitt Charter Township facility is located just North of I-69 on BR-127. The building was nearly an all-new build, utilizing some walls from a former car wash on the site. It also includes an Enterprise Rent-A-Car in the front lobby.
Vision Collision opened on February 6 and currently employs five local workers. According to Rossman, the growing business' success is based on superior customer service and great marketing.
"We have two different people doing mobile estimating," says Rossman. "We go to their home or office at no charge rather than them having to come us all the time. We're willing to go to them and be more service-driven."
Now that the DeWitt location is up and running, Vision Collision is looking to Grand Ledge for their next possible branch. Rossman says the businesses envisions up to a dozen Lansing-area locations.
Greater Lansing's first Wireless Zone moves into 1,200 sq ft DeWitt space
Capital Gains
Wednesday, May 25, 2011
Despite being the largest independent Verizon Wireless franchise in the US, the Greater Lansing area did not have a single
Wireless Zone
store until recently. The nationally-recognized name moved into a 1,200 square foot space in the Crossroads Center in
last month.
According to owner Michael Armstrong, choosing the location was as easy for he and his wife as looking down the street.
�We live near the store,� he says. �We picked the spot. I had to get the spot approved by Verizon and Wireless Zone.�
The new store created five local jobs and brings a variety of wireless products and services to the area. Armstrong is open to the possibility of expanding further into the Lansing area, but is now focused on his new store in the former First Bank site, the leasing of which is managed by CB Richard Ellis/Martin.
�It is a perfect building for us,� says Armstrong.

Marriage Bureau accepting same-sex application
GEORGETOWN - The Sussex County Marriage Bureau has begun the process to accept applications for same-gender marriages after Delaware's passage of the Civil Marriage Equality and Religious Freedom Act, which will allow any couple, regardless of gender, to legally wed.
Sussex County Clerk of the Peace John F. Brady said the bureau staff is already at work preparing for the transition. The new law, passed by the Delaware Senate on May 7, will allow any couple, whether of opposite or the same genders, to enter into civil marriage.
The new law takes effect July 1. However, applications for licenses will be issued prior to that date. Also, after July 1, no new civil unions will be performed by the Sussex County Marriage Bureau, and any existing civil unions performed in the state since Jan. 1, 2012, will convert to civil marriages.
In the coming weeks, staff in the Sussex County Marriage Bureau will work to update computer software, as well as applications and other forms, to be in compliance with the new law. Updated applications and forms should be available by mid-June both in the office and on the website at www.sussexcountyde.gov/dept/cop.
Call 302-853-1717.

Yeah, my Convenant disc had some scratches and froze up 5 times on disc 1....though its possible it is partly due to me using the PS3 to play it (I have the old phat one that is backwards compatible). I just made it to disc 2 last night.XR2 said:I played and enjoyed te 1st game back when it was relatively new. I tried playing Covenant a few years ago, but the disc was too scratched and I had to stop about 10 hours in. I've since gotten another copy, but now I'm waiting until July with the year of PS2 greats.

I'm not sure any of these devices work well with chat. The Dell will beep (multiple times) to alert me when a chat comes IF I am in a web browser, but if I am in a different window (a document or Outlook) it does nothing, and there is no way I know if a chat came in.
I synched this device with my Outlook email this morning - quite easy.

We all do it! Get busy and forget to eat before the hunger pains start up. Before eating that big meal eat a low calorie salad or soup to help curb those hunger pains and you eat less of the big meal.
Eating a healthy snack mid-morning and mid-afternoon to prevent from getting so hungry and overeating at mealtime.
I am always hungry because I am used to overeating. When I was doing Jenny Craig my consultant asked what would happen if I was hungry. She reminded me that I am not starving to death, and I will still be able to eat my next snack or meal. Being hungry won't kill me, or even cause any long term problems. It's okay if I'm hungry sometimes, meeting my goal is more important!
Only eat when you're hungry and stop eating when you're full, not ready to explode (there is a difference).

Brattleboro Retreat can use building for vetsFebruary 19,2013Retreat can use building for vets
BRATTLEBORO The Vermont Environmental Court has sided with the Brattleboro Retreat on a proposal to house patients participating in the psychiatric hospitals Uniformed Service Program.
The program brings to Vermont firefighters, police officers, emergency medical technicians and service members suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
The retreat wants to use the eight-room Meadowlark Inn on Gibson road to house the patients while they are in Brattleboro.
The town Development Review Board approved the plan last June, but two neighbors objected, saying the Retreats use of the building would transform the property into a therapeutic community residence. They asked the environmental court to overturn the boards decision.
The Brattleboro Reformer says a judge ruled the retreat could rent the rooms to patients, although it could not offer psychiatric services or therapy there.MORE IN This Just InVermont State Police responded to a single vehicle crash on Interstate 91 southbound in Westminster.

Conservationists in Herefordshire claimed that the structures, which are used to grow strawberries, were responsible for "landscape blight".
They challenged a decision to grant planning permission for the plastic tunnels and were backed by a judge who said the authorities should have carried out an environmental impact assessment.
Ian Dove, the judge, quoted Wordsworth as he ruled that an assessment should be carried out because the polytunnels are close to a conservation area and a site of special scientific interest overlooked by a historical monument, Goodrich castle.
Wordsworth wrote Tintern Abbey, located near the river Wye in Monmouthshire, in 1798 after being struck by the natural beauty of the area.
The plastic tunnels cover 54 hectares in the Wye Valley and are adjacent to an area of outstanding natural beauty.
But the decision could have broader implications as farmers across the country are increasingly resorting to the temporary covers to extend the growing season for delicate crops.
The National Farmers Union will support a legal challenge to the ruling in the Court of Appeal in November.
The British strawberry industry, worth almost £400m a year, is particularly reliant on polytunnels to allow harvesting to stretch from early spring to late autumn. Around 60,000lbs of strawberries are eaten during the Wimbledon tennis tournament alone.

Iranian students condemn massacre of Muslims in Myanmar
Hundreds of Iranian university students have staged a rally to protest against the mass slaughter of ethnic Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar.
During the rally held in front of the UN office in Tehran on Thursday, the Iranian demonstrators chanted slogans in condemnation of the despicable crime, and slammed the silence of international institutions particularly the United Nations on the carnage in the Southeastern Asian country.On July 16, Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast expressed deep concern over the mass slaughter of Muslims in Myanmar. He called for "swift and serious" measures by the Myanmar government, the international community and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to clarify the aspects of this incident and put an end to the violence. The Iranian spokesperson emphasized that respect for the rights of the followers of different religions and preparing the grounds for religious and ethnic minorities to enjoy their civil rights are principles accepted by all schools of thoughts.
According to recent reports, Muslims in Myanmar are in a humanitarian plight. Since June, hundreds of members of the nearly-one-million-strong Rohingya Muslim minority have been killed and tens of thousands of others displaced in the west of the country due to a wave of communal violence.According to a group of UK-based NGOs, from June 10 to 28, 650 Rohingya Muslims were killed, 1,200 went missing, and more than 80,000 others were displaced as a result of rioting, arson, rape, and a cycle of revenge attacks in the western state. Over the past two years, waves of ethnic Muslims have attempted to flee by boats in the face of systematic oppression by the Myanmar government. The government of Myanmar refuses to recognize the Rohingyas, who it claims are not native and classifies them as illegal migrants, although they have lived in Myanmar for generations. MP/HJL/IS

Tuesday, December 25, 2007
© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Curt email@example.com Eshanti Hessaway, 5, already had a name for her new female baby doll within minutes of receiving it on Dec. 21 - Little Eshanti. Hessaway's new doll came with a diaper bag, pacifiers and a formula bottle. She was so happy to receive the doll that she showed Little Eshanti to anyone who would take a look. "I'm going to play with her, and feed her and give her baths," Hessaway said of her doll. This is my baby. I'm going to take very good care of her." Every year, for the last four years, members of the Fort Gillem-based First United States Army have brought toys, such as dolls, miniature cars and bicycles to the 527 students at nearby Fountain Elementary School. The soldiers, and employees of Fort Gillem pick the name of one student and purchase the gift that child has asked for. The presents are then delivered by soldiers, and volunteers on the Friday before Christmas. The project began when a soldier in the First Army suggested to his commanders the division partner with a local school as a way to give back to the Forest Park community. Gayle Johnson, the community relations coordinator, chose Fountain Elementary, because she was friends with Tonya Williams, the school's principal. The Christmas project began with one pre-kindergarten class, and has grown every year since then. The First Army provided toys for every student in a grade level the following year, and provided toys for every student at the school last year. This year, Johnson expanded the program again by getting the Stockbridge-based Buffalo Soldiers Motorcycle Club of Georgia to collect new hats, coats, scarves, gloves and shoes for 25 disadvantaged students at the school. "Every year, Gayle surprises me," Williams said. "I'm always wondering what she is going to do next." Johnson, and several of the soldiers who delivered presents, said the best part about the annual event is seeing the smiling faces on the children as they tear through the wrapping paper, and express joy as they see that they got the one toy they wanted more than anything else. "Everybody who knows me, knows how important these students at Fountain are to me," Johnson said. "The First Army likes to help out where we see a need in the community." Johnson said she frequently had to report to First Army Commanding Officer Russel L. Honoré, and his wife, Beverly, about how many toys had been collected for the project. Like any mission on the battlefield, Honoré wanted to make sure his soldiers completed what they started. "He kept asking me 'How many more children do we need gifts for? Are we going to make it?'" Johnson said. "Our employees are so generous. It's amazing how they dig deep in their pockets to provide a Christmas present for each of these students. For some of these children, this may be the only present they get for Christmas." Sgt. Carol White said the soldiers completely support the program because it gives them an opportunity to connect with the community they live and work in, as well as make a difference in the lives of the children. "We make sure we leave no one without a gift," White said. "We want to see every child get a present," she added. Sgt. Maj. Teresa Roman added, "It feels awesome to do it and know you're making a difference in the community. It gets more fun every year as it gets bigger and bigger." Maj. Sandra Washington said the soldiers, particularly those with children, try to personalize the gifts they buy for Fountain Elementary School students. "We try to pick toys we would want to give our own children," Washington said. Jahseelah Williams, 4, a pre-kindergarten student at the school, received a Cabbage Patch Kids Magic Glow Surprise doll, which has blonde hair, with pink highlights in two ponytails pointing off to the left and right sides of her head. She proudly displayed her new doll as she talked about why it made her happy. "She's beautiful, and exactly what I asked for," Williams said. "I've wanted a doll like her since I saw one in a store."

A comedy on the CW? After the success of "Dawson's Creek" and "Felicity" way back in the late 1990s, the WB and then the CW all but banished the half-hour sitcom in favor of angst-ridden hourlong teen melodramas that some found moving and others (like me) found to be the dramatic equivalent of what they call "Emo" music -- sullen, pretentious and dull.
Taking a new tack, the network launches two summer sitcoms: "Seed" (9:30 p.m., TV-14) and "Backpackers" (8:30 p.m., TV-14). ("Backpackers" was not made available for review.)
''Seed" stars Adam Korson as Harry, a guy pretty easy to hate on sight. That's intentional. A 30-something slob, he's first seen playing a video game while his girlfriend pretends to break up with him. He acts like he doesn't even know her name.
Late for work at the bar, where he's barely employed, Harry is accosted by cute 9-year-old Billy (William Ainscough), who claims to be Harry's biological son through artificial insemination. Billy and his friends hacked into the sperm bank's files and discovered Harry's identity. Later, Harry learns that he's also the father of precocious teen Anastasia (Abby Ross). To make matters more complicated, Harry tries to pick up a neurotic stranger named Rose (Carrie-Lynn Neales), who, it turns out, just might want to become pregnant the old-fashioned way.
''Seed" will never win any points for originality. It's easy to imagine the meeting where this was pitched as "About a Boy" meets "The Kids Are All Right." As in "Kids," Billy's parents are lesbians -- and stereotypes. As are Anastasia's buttoned-down, yuppie, helicopter parents.
While "Modern Family" taught us that blatant stereotyping can be funny if handled with the right touch, "Seed" may be too much for some. Sperm-donor comedies are not for every taste. The pilot moves at a frantic pace while never taking itself seriously. The dialogue occasionally rises to the level of wit. CW viewers sated with the grim pomposity of "The Vampire Diaries" and "Reign" may actually find themselves laughing.

'Founding Gardeners' lecture; wellness fair; Lynden Sculpture Garden dog day
Green nation
As the British were preparing to attack New York in 1776, Gen. George Washington wrote to his estate manager about what trees he wanted planted at Mount Vernon - all American natives. Author Andrea Wulf discusses Washington and the other framers of our nation from the point of view of their gardens in "Founding Gardeners: The Revolutionary Generation, Nature and the Shaping of the American Nation." She will give a lecture on the topic Thursday at 6:15 p.m. in the Lubar Auditorium of the Milwaukee Art Museum, 700 N. Art Museum Drive. Afterward, there will be a reception in the Café Calatrava. The lecture is free with museum admission ($15 for adults; $12 for students, seniors and members of the military; free for members and children under 12). The reception costs $30 and reservations are requested: call (414) 224-3293. »Read Full Article

Understated Milwaukee: The Northwestern Mutual tower and Bucks floor
The NBA and the world of architecture have more in common than exceedingly tall celebrity players — testosterone and a penchant for the gaudy, for instance.
We've come to expect a certain over the top-ness from professional basketball, from the in-your-face logos, fluorescent shoes, deafening games and showboating, thunder-dunking players. »Read Full Blog Post(15)
Youngblood Theatre explores war at home in 'Dying City'
July 2005. Kelly, a woman in her late 20s, is sorting through books in a nondescript New York City apartment. The doorbell rings, and in walks Peter, identical twin brother of Craig, Kelly's deceased husband. An ROTC officer, Craig died in Iraq in 2004.
