HMS Echo finds 18 wrecks off Libya
Written by UK MoD, Monday, 29 July 2013
Lying some 160 feet beneath the surface of the Mediterranean, the Gaddafi era ship was one of nearly 20 wrecks and objects peppering the seabed off Libya, found by HMS Echo in a remarkable 10-day search for hidden dangers to mariners.
HMS Echo was the first Royal Navy vessel into Libya after the 2011 civil war and downfall of Colonel Gaddafi.
She returned this year for a concerted period of survey work – work which reaped rewards in and around Tripoli earlier this month with various obstacles found in and just outside the harbour.
Further sweeps using the advanced sonar of both HMS Echo and her survey boat, Sapphire, over a 10-day period located 1 liner, 2 merchantmen, 1 warship, 2 fishing vessels, at least half a dozen shipping containers, 2 barges (one of them wooden) and 4 very large sunken pontoons.
Around 6 miles off the coast of the port of Al Khums (also known as Khoms), Echo's scanners picked up the distinctive shape of a warship.
Lieutenant Jen Smith was Echo's Officer of the Watch when the wreck was discovered: "It's always exciting when we locate something on the seabed that no-one knows about," she said.
"A lot of merchant shipping waits at anchor in this area if there are no spaces in the port. Now we know about this wreck, we can warn them all to stay clear and avoid any danger."
The wreck is 298ft (91 metres [m]) long and has a shallow draft – about 7-10ft (2-3m). Given the dimensions and outline, it could be a Soviet-built Polnocny-class landing ship which could discharge armour on to a beach. Colonel Gaddafi had 4 such ships, but one, the Ibn Qis, burned out in a training exercise in 1978.
HMS Echo also moved further out to sea searching for the wrecks of the Italian liners Neptunia and Oceania which were pressed into service to ferry German and Italian troops to North Africa in 1941.
Both were torpedoed and sunk within minutes of each other some 60 miles off Tripoli by Victoria Cross winner Lieutenant Commander David Wanklyn and his submarine HMS Upholder.
Echo searched 15 square miles of seabed looking for the 590ft liners at their reported last positions, but to no avail.
Otherwise, Echo's Commanding Officer, Commander Matt Syrett, is delighted by the results of his team's survey efforts.
The data his ship has collected will be used to update charts of the area – and more accurate charts mean shipping companies can bring larger vessels into ports and cut insurance costs.
Commander Syrett said that, "The data we have gathered will mean that merchant vessels can enter Libyan waters with confidence."
HMS Echo is in the early stages of an 18-month mission to improve seafarers' charts on behalf of the UK Hydrographic Office in Taunton, who produce the world-famous, and heavily used, Admiralty Charts.

Remember Yaz? This softball team might be for you
Lincolnville — Those who cherish the memory of the 1967 Red Sox and batting icon Carl "Yaz" Yastrzemski might find an outlet at the athletic fields behind Lincolnville Central School this summer.
That is when Lesley Devoe and other members of the Recreation Commission hope to start a seniors' softball team for men and women age 55 and older. Devoe said commission members were talking about ways to get more people out on the under-used ball fields at the school when they came up with the idea to field an oldsters' team. "We're having some fun with it," she said.
The idea of gathering different generations to play, watch and have a hamburger at the new snack shack appeals to her, and she hopes it will have the same attraction for other residents.There will be no cost to play.
She looks on the team as a way to get some exercise, have fun with neighbors and gather the community, more than as a serious competitive endeavor, she said. The commission plans to invite other towns to form teams for some competition, she said.
Devoe also said she hopes to have 1960s pop music playing during practices, which will probably start at the school once Little League is over in June, she said. She wants to find another place to practice while Little League is still going on. To keep older heads and skin out of the sun, she hopes to have practices in the morning or early evening, when it is cooler.
Regular games will probably start in July and run into September.
Some people in town have already expressed interest in the team, she said, and more players are welcome. Devoe is looking at yard sales for equipment and would welcome donations, as well as volunteer coaches.
She said there has been some joking talk about having grandchildren run bases, and the team might agree on a "designated runner" rule.
"I used to steal bases all the time," she said. But now she is not sure she would be able to get up after sliding into a base, she joked.
There is no plan for uniforms, but the team will probably have T-shirts, which will be decided on after more players are signed up.
The Recreation Commission also wants to start ice hockey teams for different ages, including seniors, this winter. It needs volunteers to plow the ice, Devoe said.
Anyone interested in playing or donating equipment should call her at 763-4239.
What a great idea! Lawrence and I talked about this years ago when we left the coed league, and think it should go very well - good luck!

With LEED Promise, Chicago's Testa Produce Gets Building Site for a Dollar
In exchange for adding renewable energy and building its warehouse to LEED standards, Testa Produce is getting a building site from the city of Chicago for one dollar.
Renewable energy should provide about 55 percent of the facility's electricity needs, resulting in up to $90,000 a year in savings, said President Peter Testa.
In early March, Testa sought to have the city sell the lot for a dollar, reports Crains Business. The 13-acre lot, at the old city stockyards, is valued at $1.6 million.
Testa confirmed that the deal went through in late March, and construction might be complete by December.
"With this deal, the city has put a challenge out there to other companies," Testa said. "That's been Mayor Daly's plan for several years, and now it's up to the city's business community to live up to the challenge."
The 86,000 square-foot warehouse will include a 245-foot-tall wind turbine, which Testa says will be the first of its kind in Chicago.
The $20 million building also will have roof and pole-mounted solar photovoltaic panels and solar-powered water heating.
The building will cost about 20 percent more than if Testa had gone with a less environmentally friendly design, Testa said.
Testa said the building should be the first LEED Platinum food distribution facility in the U.S.
Here are some other features of the building:
– partially vegetated roof to prevent storm-water runoff
– an external retention pond, along with an internal filtered cistern, will capture and recycle water for non-potable uses such as landscaping
– permeable pavers in parking lot will drain to a live wetlands
– skylights will help provide interior ambient lighting
As for Testa's other operations, the distributor has converted its delivery fleet to biodiesel and company cars are hybrids.
The firm also plans to install electrical ports for plug-in hybrid vehicles as the technology becomes more available.
Reader Comments
UH..address of this amazing facilty please?
It'll be at 4555 S. Racine Avenue, Chicago, when it's finished.
I've been reading up on the wind turbine they're using, and it looks really good: It's a reliable, efficient Danish-designed machine, and the company making it here in the States is called Aeronautica Windpower.
It's nice to see something this green coming to Chicago, and made here in the USA.
Bravissimo, Mr. Testa and Company!

Long-time dance studio moves to new South Lansing location
Wednesday, October 15, 2014
Sixty-three years and three generations later, Patsy Watson is still dancing.
She just leaves the management of her dance studio to her daughter.
"My mom said that God gave her the gift to dance and teach," says Rhonda Mitchell, owner of
Patsy Watson School of Dance.
"And she's still doing it at the age of 83."
After six decades, the south Lansing dance studio still produces some of the area's finest dancers and provides instruction to people of all skills and abilities, ages 3 to 103. In early October, the studio underwent a major change by opening the doors on a new location just a mile or so from its original home. The 3,980-square-foot building at 3808 S. Cedar Street is about 600 square feet bigger than their old location, and features three rooms, waiting areas, and two-way mirrors so parents can watch their kids during class.
Mitchell says the new space allows the studio to continue to flourish and to offer classes like ballet, tap, modern, jazz, hip-hop, ballroom, Zumba and turbo kick. The studio also teaches cheer, acrobatics, mini-gymnastics, and provides after school care for neighborhood kids. About 180 students are enrolled.
"I'm investing in my children and grandchildren by purchasing a building for our studio," says Mitchell. "It's a family business, through and through."
Mitchell says her mother opened the Patsy Watson School of Dance in Lansing in 1951 with $500 and passion for teaching dance. Her mom, she says, was born in Lansing, but her grandfather moved the family to England when Patsy was just 5. Although her family endured the challenges of living in Europe during World War II, Patsy still received a solid dance education that she brought back to the U.S. when she turned 18.
"My mom started all this," says Mitchell. "We're just following in her footsteps."
Like her mother, Mitchell grew up dancing. Her daughter Vanessa did too. And now, Mitchell's infant grandchild, Lola, will more than likely dance as soon as she learns to walk.
"We're using the gift that God gave us," says Mitchell. "We don't charge a lot because we want children to have the chance to dance."

Aurora's Closet offers name brands at thrifty prices
Wednesday, October 08, 2014
Thrift stores, says Jennifer Normandin, are all about the hunt.
It's about finding that pair of designer jeans you couldn't think you could afford. Or that prom dress that's slightly vintage. Or it's about finding that single plate that completes the set you inherited from a distant relative.
As the owner of
Aurora's Closet
in downtown Williamston, Normandin understands the allure of coming into a store and never knowing what you're going to find. Located at 100 W. Grand River Ave., Aurora's Closet carries affordable clothing in excellent condition, along with a variety of other items. Clothing ranges from size preemie to adults XXL. Shoppers will also find shoes, purses, hats, accessories, toys, furniture, books and assorted household items.
"Some people think thrift stores are full of items that no one absolutely wants anymore," says Normandin. "That's not the case with us. Everything here is very clean. You won't find stains or rips or really worn out things. We have lots of name-brand items, and we sell things at decent prices."
Normandin and her business partner Janet Stumpf cut the ribbon on Aurora's closet on September 11 after a few months of prep work in the historic building. While she's unsure of the square footage, Normandin says the former video store has more than ample room for nearly 2,000 items on multiple clothing racks, shelves, tables and floor displays.
"When we came here, everything had a fresh coat of paint," says Normandin. "We kept the wallpaper with the 1900s country theme. We thought the imagery of general stores, horses and carts, and picket fences matched the tone of the building and the city."
Normandin says she carries a lot of modern clothing with well-known brands—many of which would go for $60 or more new. The price tag on most any clothing item in her store is $10 or less, with many styles and items rotating with the season.
"We just want people to be able to shop and not break the bank," says Normandin. "Everyone deserves nice clothes and shouldn't have to pick or choose whether they can have a nice pair of jeans or have to trade it for something else they might need."

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."

UnoDeuce Multimedia moves to new space, adds staff
Wednesday, October 08, 2014
Visual storyteller Paul Schmidt just got started on a new chapter of his business.
In August, Schmidt moved operations for
UnoDeuce Multimedia
across the street and upstairs to a new space in REO Town. While not too much bigger than his previous place of business next to Art Alley, his new studio at 1146 S. Washington Ave. offers a configuration that includes access to a lounge area, conference room and opportunity to grow.
"We're right upstairs within the New Horizons learning center," says Schmidt. "It makes for good synergy. It's good for my staff. And most of all, there's room for us to grow. That's one of the big things."
UnoDeuce recently added a full-time video producer, or as Schmidt calls, a "chief video storyteller." Paul Henderson started in the early summer. Schmidt also works with occasional sub contractors, and is considering bringing on more full- or part-time staff depending on workflow.
Schmidt launched UnoDeuce in 2001 with the mission of providing low-cost, high-quality media solutions for non-profit, church-based and small business organizations. Within a decade, the company had earned national recognition for its video production quality, and became the creator of websites and media production tools for clients across the country.
Schmidt's local and Michigan-based customers include Lutheran Social Services, Michigan Osteopathic Association, Cravings Gourmet Popcorn, Annabelle's Pet Station, Evolve Corporate Wellness and Top Duck Products. UnoDeuce also sponsors and provides video support for the
Lansing Derby Vixens.
"I came across a stat once that said a video is worth 1.8 million words," says Schmidt. "For us, it's all about crafting stories about people's passions using video as a storytelling tool. "

Husband-wife team roasts up wood-fired coffee on Lansing's North Side
Wednesday, October 08, 2014
Paul and Emily Nicholls share a love for each other and for great coffee. So when the residents of Santa Cruz, California, moved to Lansing about three years ago and got a taste of the city's entrepreneurial culture, they knew their destiny was to brew up something big.
In June, the Nicholls opened
Rust Belt Roastery
at 801 E. Grand River after a long search for the best means of production. They had never forgotten the fellow they had met on a trip out West, someone who made the best coffee they ever had using a simple, wood-fired roaster.
"We started looking on-line and found a wood-fired roaster up in Wisconsin," says Nicholls. "We knew we had to have it."
Paul and Emily purchased the 1930s Victoria Italian roaster and had it delivered via tractor-trailer to Lansing. After some adept maneuvering, they successfully planted the 3,500-pound cast iron roaster inside the 960-square-foot building that would eventually become their place of business.
"It's a magical device," says Nicholls. "It's big and red and chrome and was made during that time when orchards were everywhere."
The Nicholls live within walking distance of the roastery on the edge of Old Town. They've added to the hometown feel by roasting their first few months of beans with the ample supply of red oak sacrificed by one of their trees during last year's ice storm.
"We got about 60 feet of wood from that mighty branch," laughs Nicholls who also sources cherry and apple wood from a Williamston farm. "I can roast 20 pounds of beans with a piece of wood the size of a baseball bat."
Nicholls says the wood-fired roaster produces an exceptional smooth cup of coffee with a rich smoky flavor. He roasts about two to three 20-pound batches every Saturday, and sources his beans through single-source or fair trade suppliers.
"I like everything about what I do," says Nicholls. "And Lansing is a neat place with old trees, a couple rivers and a lot of nice people all working on the same team. I like that."
Rust Belt Roastery coffee is carried through the Old Town General Store, Vet's Too Gift Boutique, Detroit Frankie's Wood-Fired Pizza, and the East Lansing Farmer's Market.

New Horizons opens co-working space in REO Town, relocates up to 24 jobs
Wednesday, October 01, 2014
Back in the "old days," computer training took place in classrooms—complete with desktops, facilitators and giant printed manuals.
As a Michigan leader in computer learning and training,
New Horizons
wanted to find a new facility that reflected their business model and more effectively served their clients.
Enter REO Town and a building owned by developer Alan Hooper. It was a space, says New Horizons Chief Administrative Officer Scott McLean, that provided the energetic, urban environment he envisioned. What's more, it was close to highways, downtown, and to many New Horizons clients.
So in August, New Horizon moved from East Lansing to 1146 S. Washington and became a "tenant" within their new venture: a collaborative working and learning space for IT and coding professionals, small business owners, entrepreneurs, traveling business people and more.
"Our business has changed so much that we wanted to look at our space and see how we can continue to add value," says McLean. "The more we talked and thought about it, the more we got hooked on the idea of creating a co-working and learning center."
consists of 6,500 square feet of open work area for up to 80 people. Customers have access to WiFi, printers, scanners and storage lockers, and can drop in or purchase monthly memberships. New Horizons set aside an area for computer classes, as well as a conference space for events or meetings.
McLean outfitted Co:Space with industrial-style furnishings, exposed brick walls and a polished concrete floor. One wall features a huge chalk drawing by Michigan artist Greg Oberle that pays homage to REO Town.
"We want to be an investor in Lansing," says McLean. "A lot of Michigan cities are undergoing urban renewal and recreating areas like this."
New Horizons will relocate 12 staff to the new facility, with a dozen more dropping in from other sites once or twice a week.
Co:Space and New Horizons invite the community to celebrate the new facility with an open house on Wednesday, October 8, from 4 to 7 p.m. Free parking is available behind the building or on the street.

East Lansing Threads brings resort-inspired brands to town, creates 10 jobs
Wednesday, October 01, 2014
Marsha Chouinard never suspected the email her stepdaughter sent from the East Lansing Art Fair would recommend a storefront as the family's next work of art.
But when Chouinard saw the picture of the vacated Kirabo's at 225 E. Grand River, she instantly knew it was the perfect place to open the Midwestern "sister store" of her Destin, Florida, boutique.
Chouinard began putting things in motion to open
East Lansing Threads
—a clothing boutique for men and women featuring trendy brands such as Vineyard Vines, Southern Proper, Southern Tide, Southern Marsh, Ella Moss, 7 for All Mankind and Splendid. The 1,200-square-foot store also carries accessories and apparel from Over Under as well as designer handbags, footwear and artisan jewelry.
"Our brands aren't super expensive, but they're high quality and very well made," says Chouinard. "We try to hit, good, better and best for everything we carry."
Chouinard developed her passion for fashion from her career as a purchaser and manager of resort retail. She has opened nearly a dozen stores, including a Threads boutique in Destin.
"While our main market is college, we know that lots of moms and community members need casual weekend wear, too," says Chouinard. "In Destin, we see a variety of ages—from middle school all the way to up to men and women in their 50s."
After securing the spot in June, Chouinard enlisted a renovation team to build out the space. Changes included pulling out the drop ceiling, repainting walls with charcoal and light gray tones, installing a slate-looking floor, and adding fitting rooms, a new cash desk and alcoves.
Chouinard's husband, Marty, grew up in Greater Lansing, and encouraged her to give Michigan a try for her second Threads store.
"We're very excited to be part of the community, for sure," says Chouinard. "I'm really happy to have a reason to be up here and be near other members of my family."
Threads opened in late September with a staff of three full-time and five part-time employees.

Al-Lin Floral and Gifts grows business, moves to new space
Wednesday, October 01, 2014
Alan Vogl learned all about flowers from his grandma, a master gardener in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
Today, Vogl is a master in his own rite as he tends to a flourishing and growing business in Okemos.
Vogl owns
Al-Lin Floral and Gifts
with his wife Linda. The 10-year-old business recently relocated to prime frontage at 1739 W. Grand River after outgrowing their space a mile east down the road.
"We attribute out growth to a quality product at a fair price," says Vogl of the move that nearly doubled the space for his business. "Our customer service also makes us stand out."
The husband-wife team decided to open the shop in 2005 after their kids packed up and went to college. Al had worked for years in a local floral shop, and with the business skills of his wife and the "home schooling" he had received from his grandmother, he felt confident cultivating a business of his own.
Al-Lin Floral's new 5,500-square-foot store captures attention from the busy roadway and positions the shop to nurture the floral and gift needs of new and returning customers.
"All our flowers are fresh and come in daily and last five to seven days," says Vogl. "We offer seasonal specials, and we do arrangements for corporate events, weddings, special occasions, every day, and most of all, just because."
The new store, Vogl says, will carry more unique gifts including pillows, lotions, napkins, candleholders and other home décor items. The new location will also offer a special line of Michigan products made by local artisans.
"We're not your typical everyday florist," says Vogl. "We encourage customers to participate in the design of their arrangement, and we offer floral classes so you can make your own arrangement to take home."
Al-Lin Floral and Gifts also offers seasonal decorating services for homes and businesses, tailored to customer preferences. The Vogls employ two part-time staff, and plan to hire up to two more part-time designers and three sales people in the next couple months.

Established baker satisfies East Lansing's sweet tooth with French cookies
Wednesday, October 01, 2014
The trip to find one of the world's finest cookies just got reduced from a lengthy plane ride to a quick jaunt across town.
In late August, Kelly Toland opened the doors to her East Lansing bakery that specializes in French macarons. Located at 1133 E. Grand River Ave. next to Tasty Twist,
Le Bon Macaron
carries up to a dozen kinds of the European meringue cookie made from sugar, egg whites, almonds, and loads and loads of butter.
"They're really light cookies," says bakery owner Kelly Toland. "They're very pretty, too, and aesthetically pleasing for parties or weddings or desserts."
Toland says a macaron consists of two crispy shells filled with a flavored butter cream center. Cookies come in a rainbow of colors and many of the flavorings used in the butter cream center come directly from France. Must-tries including salted caramel, chocolate peanut butter, jasmine, violet or poppy seed.
"It's always fun to pick out or recommend flavors for customers," says Toland. "We have boxes with a clear front that hold six or 12, so no matter how you arrange them, they always look really nice together."
The 250-square-foot Le Bon Macaron is primarily a retail space with a back area for baking. Up to 15 people can sit on an outdoor patio shared with next-door neighbor Bell's Pizza.
Toland got the idea to bring a little bit of Paris to East Lansing after a college study abroad program landed her in France. When she came back, she started and ran her first business—
A Piece O' Cake
—for about seven years. She recently sold the business to open Le Bon Macaron.
Toland runs the bakery with her parents, Wendy and John Kobus. Her dad, she says, creates the macarons, starting nearly every morning at 5 a.m. to make shells, blend flavors and assemble the cookies.
"We've always baked and cooked together as a family," says Toland. "And since I was interested in food photography, one thing led to another. Cakes are a good creative outlet, and macarons are similar. Plus, they're very photogenic."

The Runway debuts talent, fosters fashion growth in Lansing
Wednesday, September 24, 2014
Even before opening the doors to their highly anticipated retail space,
The Runway
has been racing to put Lansing on the fast track to becoming a Midwest fashion mecca.
With a grand opening slated for Thursday, Oct. 9, The Runway welcomes the fashion-conscious and fashion-curious into a 3,000-square foot storefront filled with quality, Michigan-based apparel. Featured products laid out in flexible 10 x 10 boutique spaces include Trybe, Brightly Twisted, Lionblood and MP Fashion. Others are on the way as the showroom and the related fashion incubator capture attention.
"Retail and fashion aren't the first thing many of us think of when we think of downtown Lansing," says Jeff Henry, operator of The Runway. "This is an inspiration for others to follow suit, as well as a motivator for our fashion incubator tenants to reach for."
The showroom can accommodate up to 25 brands. In addition to general traffic, the showroom looks to attract buyers from boutiques and other fashion retailers.
"It's a great way for buyers to get a visual of what items may look like in a store," he says. "It's also a great way to show the talent that's here in Michigan and why we started The Runway in the first place."
Located on the ground floor of the renovated
Knapp's Centre,
the showroom features all kinds of "wears" from sportswear to swimwear to street wear. A sweeping staircase leads to a 5,500-square-foot incubator on the second floor where up to 12 designers-in-residence and associate designers explore start-up businesses.
Anchor tenants enjoy private studio and office space, as well as shared resources to produce products. Associate designers can also access resources that include pressing and cutting tables, dress forms, industrial sewing machines, and the coveted OPTITEX's 2D and 3D software. Business planning and legal services are also available.
"We're focused on retaining talent and bringing industry and jobs here," says Henry. "We want to roll off the strength of manufacturing and return the Midwest to its history of making things."
Current designers-in-residence include Lawrence Hunt, Freshwater Apparel, LE&O, Allie Su Bridal, Swim Lively, Alex & Jayde Designs, Beauhawk, Lady Aitch, Bad Latitude and North Promontory. Economic development and organization support for The Runway comes through the Lansing Economic Development Corp. and LEAP. Major sponsors include Foster Swift and Peckham.

Confectionately Yours sweetens up sidewalk commute for downtown workers
Wednesday, September 24, 2014
Workers and visitors traversing the busy morning sidewalks of downtown Lansing this fall will find a sweet option for breakfast and snacks on the go.
Right after Labor Day, Heather Schmidt rolled out
Confectionately Yours
on the corner of Capitol and Michigan Avenues and began vending baked goods and coffee to passers-by.
Schmidt stocks an assortment of seven different breakfast items including scones, muffins, cinnamon rolls and yogurt parfaits within the 3-foot by 10-foot red canopied push cart. Granolas, cookies and brownies are also part of the inventory for afternoon or late-morning snackers. Hot coffee from Paramount is also on hand for caffeine seekers.
"We'll be offering seasonal baked goods and other things here and there," says Schmidt. "We want to keep it interesting so people smile and want to come back."
Schmidt worked in bakeries in Michigan and Rhode Island for about 18 years, and launched Confectionately Yours about two years ago from a licensed kitchen within her Dansville home. As demand grew for her cakes and other confections, Schmidt considered opening up a brick and mortar shop, but opted for a mobile option when her carpentry-inclined husband offered to build her a food cart.
Downtown Lansing was a logical choice to roll-out her food cart business, Schmidt says, because of the city's ongoing support of small business and street vendors.
"There's also nice traffic from downtown workers," says Schmidt. "It's great to be part of helping to liven up the downtown."
Schmidt says she bakes everything fresh the night before and then gets help with cleanup and stocking the cart from her three kids, ages 9 through 16. The Confectionately Yours food cart is open Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Lou and Harry's responds to customer demand for downtown location
Wednesday, September 24, 2014
Scott Rolen listened to his mentor in the restaurant business. He also listened to his customers.
In late August, Rolen cut the ribbon on
Lou and Harry's Downtown
and began his long-awaited venture into owning and managing his first restaurant. It's an opportunity, he says, he owes to Harry Saites—a founder of the Lou and Harry's family of restaurants. And it's a chance to answer the call for a Lou and Harry's in Lansing's urban core.
"People have been asking us for a while to bring a Lou and Harry's to downtown," says Rolen who has worked for Saites for 10 years and will operate his restaurant under a licensing agreement. "There's a wonderful clientele down here and as long as we continue to be quick and efficient, we're sure they'll love our product."
Rolen promises not to disappoint and will offer the original Lou and Harry's menu of freshly made sandwiches, gyros, burgers and salads. To distinguish the downtown location, he is offering his own homemade soups and sandwich specials on a daily basis. Early risers can also stop in for coffee and a simple breakfast, including yogurt parfaits, and pitas with eggs, meat and cheese.
The new eatery will seat 48 people in a 1,900-square-foot space that features booths, tables and a blend of old school and modern décor. Colors are deep and earthy, with a mix of blues, oranges and reds to set off the new floors, countertops and lights.
"Harry and I are totally like family, and his mom and dad, too," says Rolen. "They've all been hugely supportive. His mama came in and blessed the store. It's great to have them around."
Lou and Harry's Downtown employs 16 people, including two cashiers and prep, line and grill cooks. Rolen hopes to branch into catering and delivery once the sit-down restaurant is up and running. Hours are from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily. Other Lou and Harry's are located on Chandler Road in Bath Township and on East Saginaw Street in East Lansing.

Beer Grotto on deck in Stadium District with hybrid store and lounge
Wednesday, September 17, 2014
A combination tasting room and store coming to
Lansing's Stadium District
complex next spring will help lessen the chance for "buyer's remorse" among lovers of craft beer and wine.
With the tagline "Taste It. Love It. Tote It.," the
Beer Grotto
will offer craft beverage enthusiasts a destination for sampling, experiencing and purchasing up to 48 draft beers and 80 wines—with about 75 percent made in Michigan. The Beer Grotto will also offer a select line of non-alcohol beers, wines and sodas, including the iconic Michigan brand Faygo.
"The idea for the Beer Grotto came about when we were thinking of customers who pick up a flavored stout or a wine with a cool label, only to realize they have five left in a six-pack or are stuck with a cooking wine," says Sam Short, one of three owners along with Troy Ontko and Brandon Ansel. "There's no reason for that. We want people to have a chance to taste everything in our store."
Beer Grotto patrons will also be able to hang out in full-service lounge, or reserve an event space for parties, meetings or celebrations. Short says the hybridized space will include individual tasting stations where well-trained staff dubbed "beer geeks" or "cork dorks" will assist and educate customers on beer and wine samples.
Short plans to hire about 20 part-time and 20 full-time staff for the 4,100-square-foot space. Located on the corner of Michigan Avenue and Cedar Street, the Beer Grotto will seat 200 people inside and 50 people on an outdoor patio.
The Beer Grotto, Short says, addresses the booming interest in craft beers and wines, as well as the ongoing resurgence of living and working in the urban core.
"We've watched Lansing grow in a wonderful way," says Short, adding that
Pat Gillespie's Stadium District
and other downtown developments create a perfect setting. "That mix of residential, tourism and visitors to downtown is something you don't see very often. We're happy to become part of it."
The Beer Grotto is on deck for early 2015 and will be open seven days a week. The Lansing location is the third Beer Grotto for Short behind Dexter and Ann Arbor.

Sweet Lorraine's serves up classic comfort food in arty setting
Wednesday, September 17, 2014
Satisfying the insatiable yen for the queen of comfort foods just got possible as a Detroit-based restaurateur opens the doors in downtown East Lansing this fall.
At 547 E. Grand River just across from the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum,
Sweet Lorraine's Fabulous Mac 'n Cheez
will offer 14 made-to-order varieties of the famed culinary duo. Hungry or discerning appetites can also dine on salads, grilled sandwiches stuffed with macaroni and cheese, and end with a sweet treat of fresh-baked cookies or a salted caramel rice crispy bar.
"We've tried to give people an idea of our brand through our logo," says Lorraine Platman who owns the restaurant with her husband Gary Sussman. "The artwork is like something between The Flintstones and The Jetsons—showing that macaroni and cheese has been around forever, but we can also get it out to you fast and fabulous. In other words, it's not your mama's mac and cheese."
Platman and Sussman met at Michigan State University in the mid '70s, and are ecstatic about bringing the concept to East Lansing. The new location becomes the fifth in the Sweet Lorraine family that consists of two full-service deli and café concepts and three mac-and-cheese focused eateries. Other locations are in the works outside Michigan.
As an alumna of MSU's fine art program, Platman takes an interest not just in the food, but in the décor of her enterprises. The East Lansing location, she says, will feature industrial-style chairs with flexible backs, eye-popping veneer, and a terrazzo floor. A variety of pop-art posters and sayings will adorn the different colored walls, including a reproduction of a Sweet Lorraine's menu signed by
Andy Warhol.
"I still get tongue-tied talking about how Andy Warhol came to my restaurant 30 years ago and signed my menu," says Platman of the influential artist who was in Detroit for a book signing. "He loved the different colored walls and had a sandwich."
The 2000-square-foot Sweet Lorraine's Fabulous Mac 'n Cheez seats 65 people and will be serviced by 32 staff.

Dublin Jerky offers exotic flavors for the protein-crazed snacker
Wednesday, September 17, 2014
Once a point-of-sale favorite at party stores, jerky is making inroads as a healthy and satisfying alternative for snackers everywhere.
Just ask Bruce Patulski. He's a Michigan pioneer in the jerky renaissance and has been racking up popular and exotic varieties of the carnivorous snack for years. And last summer, Patulski brought a branch of the renowned
Dublin Jerky
to the
Lansing City Market
, offering the company's most flavorful varieties plus an eclectic mix of brats, firewood, mopeds and custom-made T-shirts.
"The proof's in the product," says Patulski of the booth's staple. "Our jerky is nice and juicy, and it bursts with flavor when you bite into it. It's insanely tender."
Patulski learned the jerky business from the Dublin Jerky founder, who is also his brother-in-law. He started as a teen working in the Greenville, Mich., shop, and has continued to smoke, rack and package prime cuts of beef, chicken, turkey, pork, wild boar, rabbit, pheasant, alligator, ostrich and python.
"It's definitely not your typical gas station jerky," says Patluski. "We source our meats from all over the country and they all go through FDA inspection."
Patulski carries the most popular of Dublin Jerky's 60 varieties in his 100-foot vendor space. The 15 to 20 types of jerky include his go-to items like the "sweet heat beef" and "apple jack beef" and spicy varieties made with hot or ghost peppers.
"I'm surprised they don't melt the bag," he laughs.
A quarter-pound bag of jerky, Patulski says, provides an option for people looking for a high-protein snack or quick meal. Several popular magazines like
Muscle & Fitness
have mentioned Dublin Jerky by name as a way to curb hunger, help build muscle, and ward off carb cravings.
Dublin Jerky also carries a line of loaded brats including garlic and sauerkraut, maple and bacon, and a blue cheese and cherry. Like the jerky, the brats are smoked, fully cooked and made with all natural ingredients.
As for the mopeds and screen printing and firewood, Patulski says that's an offshoot of his father's retail business in Manistee.
"I'm in the business program at MSU," says Patulski who operates the market with his girlfriend. "I guess you could say that business is in my blood."

Runaway leader claims marathon
Relevant offers
Sam Wreford's stellar 2012 season continued yesterday, with the Timaru long-distance runner adding victory in the Southland Marathon to his list of achievements.
The 29-year-old has been in exceptional form this year, winning the Christchurch Marathon in June, and also taking out the national cross-country title.
Wreford was untroubled on his way to winning the Southland Marathon, breaking away from the rest of the pack after just 100m, and being the runaway leader for the rest of the 42.2km journey from Riverton to the finish line at Surrey Park.
Wreford won in a personal best time of 2hr 16min 35sec, which was an exceptional effort, considering he was running into a headwind for most of the way.
He finished well clear of second-placed Romain Mirosa in 2hr 44min 53sec, and Simon Richardson, who placed third in 2hr 55min 55 sec.
It was the third quickest time in the history of the Southland Marathon, with only John Campbell's record time of 2hr 12min 12sec and Paul Herlihy's 2hr 15min 58sec being better.
Wreford had never competed in the Southland Marathon before and said he was delighted to finish in such a strong time.
He was aiming for a time of about the 2hr 14min mark, but said the blustery winds were always going to make that difficult.
"For the first 21km, I was getting the crosswind coming into my front right shoulder and it turned into a headwind.
"I had a tailwind the last couple of kilometres.
"You've got to take what the conditions give you."
Wreford is coached by 1960 Olympic Games marathon bronze medallist Barry Magee, and hopes to compete in the Commonwealth Games in 2014.
He spent six months in Kenya last year to train at high altitude.
"In terms of marathon running, I don't believe I'm close to reaching my peak. I see myself about six years from my peak."
Gore's Ricky Gutsell, who won five of the past six Southland Marathons, registered the third quickest overall time in 2hr 47min 25 sec to take out the men's masters section.
The women's marathon was won by Queenstown's Tracey Woodford in a time of 3hr 25min 43sec.
She triumphed in a close finish from Kerry Rowley, who was 38 seconds back.
Woodford completed her first marathon in Invercargill four years ago, and bettered that time by 28 minutes yesterday, which she was elated about.
"It's like fine wine. You get better with age," she laughed.
"It was a nice surprise [to win]. It was a bit of a training run for me. I didn't expect to go out and win it."
The Ascot Park Hotel-sponsored Festival of Running event attracted almost 600 competitors in five events, including the marathon, half marathon, McDermotts Coachlines 10k, The Southland Times 150 Years 5k and the SBS Bank Kids Mara-Fun-Run.
In the men's half marathon, Neale McLanachan was the fastest male home in 1hr 14min 10 sec, with Victoria Beck winning the female half marathon in 1hr 19min 41sec.
Jordan Rackham won the men's 10km run in a time of 36min 32sec, and Kirsty O'Sullivan won the women's event in 39min 29sec.
The Southland Times 150 Years men's 5k run was won by Oliver O'Sullivan in 20min 9sec, while Andrea McDowell was the fastest woman in 28min 4sec.

The developer of a proposed 12,000-square-foot market at Millbrook Tarry said he is committed to the project despite objections from some neighbors.
Speaking at the Concord office of his architect, Dewing Schmid Kearns Architects + Planners (DKS), Jim White said on April 19 that his property is an "eyesore in Concord Center, and I want to improve it."
Seated in a conference room with DKS President Thomas Kearns, White said he has been working with the town on the project for years, calling Millbrook Tarry the last major piece of undeveloped land in Concord Center.
"I have been at it for years," White said, "and I want to make the site more attractive for the town."
Some neighbors are fighting the idea, primarily because of concerns about parking and traffic.
David Brownell, who has lived on Bow Street for 52 years, is one.
"The building is way too big for this space," Brownell said.
"He owns the property," Brownell said of White, "and he should develop it, but this isn't downtown Boston where buildings are two feet away from something else."
Millbrook Tarry is a mixed-use development that already includes office space, a bank, a café and a Rite Aid pharmacy.
The market would replace up to 52 parking spots in front of the Rite Aid. White's daughter, Elizabeth Akehurst-Moore, would co-own the market, and has said it would have a big kitchen and bakery that serves prepared meals to go, modeled after the food at the Trails End Café, which Akehurst-Moore owns at Millbrook Tarry.
The Concord Planning Board did not make a recommendation on the project at its April 12 meeting, and in an email response to questions from The Concord Journal, board member Brooke Whiting Cash wrote the board is concerned about the volume of parking relief requested by White and the precedent this would set.
"There is quite a bit of precedent town-wide for granting the relief we request," Kearns said.
Cash mentioned concerns about an October 2015 report from a consultant - hired and paid for by White and completed by Bayside Engineering, Inc. - that may not have accurately reflected the demand for parking and the amount of traffic at the site.
"One concern expressed by the board and members of the public was questioning whether Trails End had really gotten into 'full swing' by October when the study was done, and that the growing popularity of the restaurant and bar appears to have significantly increased parking demand over the past 6-9 months," Cash wrote.
Kearns said White's development team continues to consult with its experts on parking and traffic, adding, "We revisited with our parking expert and confirmed that the October study dates are valid study dates of the current condition (at Millbrook Tarry)."
White paid for a "peer review" to look at the traffic and parking study completed by Bayside Engineering Group. The town hired the consultant that did the peer review, and it was presented to the Planning Board at its April 12 meeting.
"There was significant discussion about the peer review of the traffic study, other items related to parking and traffic, and public concerns regarding these issues," Cash wrote.
"The peer review asked for confirmation of several items," she continued. "The applicant seemed frustrated by the drawn out process of review, response and request for additional information coming in several iterations. Despite relative agreement by the peer reviewer on the computation of parking, the board remained concerned about various comments from town departments related to traffic/circulation/parking issues."
Kristin Johnson lives on nearby Lang Street, and said she is concerned that removing parking spots at Millbrook Tarry for a market would cause spillover parking on her street, making it too narrow for fire trucks to get through if there is an emergency.
Johnson said she supports the idea of a market, but when it comes to parking and traffic concerns, "(White) has to address things differently."
Kearns said the town bears some of the responsibility for looking at ways to mitigate neighborhood concerns, including posting no-parking signs on Johnson's street.
"Our traffic and parking expert evaluated streets and reported no impact," Kearns said. "As part of Concord's long-range plan for parking, we encourage the town to look at fair and balanced ways to manage parking concerns by appropriate measures, such as no-parking signs on neighborhood streets."
The Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) has the final authority on granting a special permit and site plan approval for the project, and it's expected to discuss the project at its April 21 meeting.
According to Cash, the Planning Board discussed having Town Planner Elizabeth Hughes draft a letter to outline any unresolved concerns, adding that the board doesn't have to have all issues resolved in order to make a recommendation to the ZBA on the project, which could happen at its next meeting on May 10.
White said it's not totally clear from the last Planning Board meeting what happens next, but "It's clear that the Planning Board supports this project, in terms of the design and use of the building."
"The Planning Board is considering a recommendation at its May 10 meeting," White continued, "and I hope I will be receiving a draft of that recommendation in advance so all of us can come up and recommend a major step forward to support a market for the town in a manner that the town would like to see developed."
