Editor’s CornerOne afternoon back in 1976 when I was

12 and living in Miami, my mother said Icould have a couple friends over, but theywere not allowed in the house. Huh?

They would have to stay outside, shesaid. By the way, it was summer, it wassomething like 90 degrees with equally oppressive humidity.

Since bothmy friends,Greg andMitch, came fromdivorced fam-ilies, my mother didn’t think it was appropriate to have kids frombroken homes in our home, lest they spread the curse of divorceupon our family.

Whatmadematters evenmore frustrating formewas that she hadno problem having them in our yard.

That was one of my biggest pet peeves about my parents - theywere terribly inconsistent in their “rules.”

For example,when I was in high school, after coming home closeto midnight after attending a symphonic band festival (a mandatoryevent for those of us in the symphonic band), my father blew his lidand took the car keys fromme for three days.

Yet, a few weeks earlier, after strolling in at 2 a.m., I went to tellmy parents I was home andmy dad yelled atme for waking him up,but I digress.

Anyhow, banished outdoors in the heat, I wanted my friends tohear one of my cassettes (Bay City Rollers, I believe), But, I had nobatteries for my Panasonic cassette player so Greg and his brokenhome mentality suggested we use the electrical outlet in my neigh-bor’s driveway.

When I said thatwouldn’t be right, he offered good kid logic:No-body was home. Nobody would ever know.

Reluctantly, I said okay and we used Mr. Humperdink’s outlet.His name wasn’t really Humperdink, but I called him that becausehe looked like the infamous wrestling manager, Sir OliverHumperdink, one of the villains of the National Wrestling Allianceand I’m sure a child of divorce if my mother had anything to sayabout it.

Not more than five minutes after using Humperdink’s electricity,he drove up in his AMCPacer.Whenwe saw his car coming, we upand ran but left my tape player behind in his driveway. Oops.

He soon came over tomy house and after a profanity-laced tiradeat me and my friends and my mother, called the police, whichseemed to be a favorite pastime of neighbors on my block.

Once, whenmy friend and I used paint tomark off hashmarks tomake a 50-yard football field in the street, one lady called the police.She also called the police another timebecausewewere playing fris-bee in the street.

The reason I share this electricity-stealing story is because theother day I came across an article about a Georgia man whowas ar-rested and spent a night in jail after using an outside electrical outletat his son’s middle school to charge his Nissan Leaf electric carwhile waiting to pick up his son from a sporting event.

The article stated that he used approximately five cents of elec-tricity, when confronted by police, but the sergeant working the casesaid the amount of the theft was immaterial.Whatmatteredwas thatthe man took without asking.

Really?Was this sergeant’s name Humperdink?Haven’t we all used outlets in public places such as an airport to

charge our phones or computers?Does thatmake us thieves aswell?When we turn on lights to use a public restroom, are we stealingelectricity? Should we not flush because we would be stealing wa-ter?

As it has been said, the problem with common sense these daysis that it isn’t as common as it once was.

If you’ve read to this point, thank you for allowing me to shareanother dark and illogical day from my childhood and until nextweek, may the good news be yours.

A recent national survey noted that with a rise in consumer confidence relatedto the economy, household finances and job security, total holiday spending isexpected to increase 12 percent over what was spent in 2012.

Letters

Rochelle Olson,Grass Lake

"Probably more. I have it to spend.I got a promotion this year.”

Jim Sobel,Marshall

"I’ll probably spend the sameamount even though I’m going toNorth Carolina to spend Christmaswith my daughters. I’ll worry aboutshopping when I get there.”

Word on the StreetWill you be spending more or less this holiday season?

by John Hendler

Lori Shivley,Marshall

"I’ll spend less. My son and I are go-ing to travel to Ireland this summer.”

Corinne Kellogg,Emmett Twp.

"I will be spending less this Christ-mas. I went crazy the last couple years.But this year I have a wedding to savefor, so I’ll be dialing back on myspending.”

David Callan,Jackson

"I’ll either spend about the same ora little less this year. Being older, Idon’t have that many people to buyfor.”

Shannon Clark,Grass Lake

"Probably more. I already boughtmyself a 65” television.”

Christmas - time for a true birthday celebrationTo the Editor:Have you ever been to a

birthday celebration or birthdayparty? I have been to many ofthem in my life; some I wascomfortable at and othersweren’t so comfortable. Nor-mally, a birthday celebrationgoes along with the age and in-terests of the person who ishaving the birthday.

A few weeks ago there wasa birthday celebration given inmy behalf. It was the first time

I had a birthday that more thanfamily members were invited.(Which is fine by me) Therewere many friends that attendedand I appreciated it very much.The person that they invited toattend that I was most happyfor was me. Why would theyhave a birthday celebration forme without me? I know thatwould seem odd, due to the factthat every birthday party hasthe birthday person honored inattendance. How would you

like to have your birthday cele-bration given and you are theone not invited? Think about it.

On Dec. 25, we are celebrat-ing a birthday. Some may cele-brate before the 25th, and someafter, but we are celebrating thebirth of Jesus. Decorations arein place and lights glowing inthe night air a month before Hishonored day. Parades being at-tended by millions, bandsmarching, choirs sing praises,children march, sirens blow and

horses prance. Why? Because itis Christmas; the birthday of Je-sus.

If you gather around aChristmas tree this year, visitfamily or walk the streets andlisten to the carols, remember“the reason for the season.”Make this Christmas a Christ-mas to remember for you andyour family.

Doug Damon,Marshall

You have the right to access your medical recordsTo the Editor:Many healthcare consumers want to

play a more active role in their treatmentand disease management programs. Theright to see and to receive a copy of theirmedical records (called, the right to access)is fundamental to an individual’ s abilityto participate in the healthcare system.

Some examples are for individualsswitching to another doctor due to changesin insurance coverage or relocation. Busyparents who need copies of medicalrecords to keep track of their own and theirchildren’ s medical visits. Health informa-tion that is critical to all patients trackingtheir progress through wellness programsand to monitor chronic conditions.

Electronic Health Records and PersonalHealth Records make it easier, safer andfaster to get access to your health informa-tion and stay engaged with your healthcare provider during a course of treatment.Although there can be a charge for obtain-ing copies, the piece of mind is well worththe cost.

I also know that, too often, patients facebarriers to obtaining their personal records- usually the first barrier is that they do notunderstand their basic rights under HIPAA.

All patients should be aware that theyhave the right to:

• Ask to see and get a copy of theirhealth records from doctors, clinics, hospi-tals, pharmacies, nursing homes and med-ical labs.

• Get either a paper copy or an elec-tronic copy of all of your signed records,lab reports, nurse’ s notes and physiciannotes, diagnostic images, treatment op-tions.

• To obtain a copy of every documentsigned indicating patient financial respon-sibility and liability. To ensure that youknow your rights and are able to assertthese rights, the Office of Civil Rights hasdeveloped videos and pamphlets to helpyou understand your rights under HIPAA.

The following tools are located on theDHHS website at www.HHS.gov/ocr andthe following YouTube sites:

• “The Right to Access and CorrectYour Health Information”http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JY1I5s8ED5c

• “Your New Rights under HIPAA”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-

Channel for additional topics like “YourHealth Information, Your Rights” or Com-municating with Family, Friends and Oth-ers Involved in Your Care.

• Look up more information about yourright to get your medical record at:http://www.hhs.gov/ocr/privacy/hipaa/understanding/consumers/medicalrecords.html

• Learn how to file a complaint withOCR if you think that your rights havebeen violated, and know that underHIPAA, it is illegal for an entity to retaliateagainst you for filing.

As Marshall High Schoolboys varsity basketballhead coach Nick Dent be-gins his second season, heknows that as talented asthis year’s squad is, it willtake some time for his teamto hit their stride.

“We were a senior-heavyteam last year so there aresome big shoes to fill.” saidDent. “We have a lot ofnew faces on this year's ros-ter. There are many new-comers to our program asabout half of our roster isnew to MHS this year. Sowe have a team with manyguys who have neverplayed together. This pre-sents a unique challenge.Therefore we need to bereal intentional about artic-ulating expectations andbuilding relationships andteam chemistry.”

This year’s captains arenewcomers Angus Bennettand Davonte Burch, alongwith returning player, se-nior Landry Reynolds.

“We are even more ath-letic from top to bottomthan last year,” said Kon-kle, whose teams havewon back-to-back re-gional titles. “We willlook to utilize our athleti-cism and quickness butboth fast breaking andplaying full court defense.Offensively we shouldhave a better shootingteam as well as a betterball handling team.”

That athleticism was ondisplay Dec. 3 as the var-sity team opened its sea-son with a 70-38 victoryat Portage Central on Dec.3.

“We have improvedtremendously since westarted practice. especiallyfrom our first to secondscrimmages,” said Kon-kle. “This team has a verycompetitive spirit and ourscrimmages in practice re-flect this and are some ofthe best we have everhad.”

This year’s retuningplayers are: Kelsie Hicks,Sr. guard; Tierra Orban,Sr. guard; KelseyPostema, Sr. forward;Taylor Jungel, Sr, center;Layla Harkey, Jr. guard;Logan Kiessling Jr. for-ward; and Chelsea To-bias, Jr. guard.

WINTER SPORTS PREVIEWS for Marshall RedhawksWINTER SPORTS PREVIEWS for Marshall RedhawksBoth the boys and girls

teams return after a success-ful 2012-13 campaign inwhich both teams advancedout of regional and com-peted at the state finals.

“We coaches feel like thissquad is already jelling as ateam and should make a se-rious run for the conferencetitle,” said Coach SueHutchings. “Both our boysand girls leadership is solidand the team is working veryhard to get ready for the firstconference meet onDec.19.”

Returning for the boysvarsity are senior team cap-tain Zak VanArman, juniorcaptain Bryar Peters andsophomore captain, MickSchaum. Freshmen BradyBrisson and Grey Gilletthave been bowling in juniorleagues for over eight yearseach and will be immediatecontributors to the cam-paign. Also seeing action onvarsity will be sophomoreEric Silvers and junior KodyMetzger. Austin Hazel andKyle Wolf have also beencompeting in youth leaguesand with a little more work,will be rotated into the mix,said Hutchings.

The girls squad will be ledby senior captain TaylorShippell and junior co-cap-tains Emily Rupp and Hous-ton Jones. All three saw ac-tion last year on varsity andwere key players in advanc-ing out of regional. JuniorsIsabel Barroso and KaitlynMatarazzo will also see timeon varsity as will sophomoreAutumn Hazel. Also likelyto see action late in the sea-son will be freshman SaraParks.

“We like to mix our teamsup and give our underclass-men opportunities to bowlon varsity to gain experi-ence,” said Hutchings. “Ourstrategy pays off when JVchampionships and region-als roll around in late Febru-ary.”

The Marshall squad isdeep this year with a fullcomplement of JV bowlers.The junior class, in particu-lar is well represented.

“I am smiling inside be-cause this would have beenJacob Dannenberg’s junioryear and I know that he ishelping to fill our squad withthese great kids,” saidHutchings of the late JacobDannenberg, who passedaway in 2004. The annualjunior adult tournament,scheduled for Jan. 5, carrieshis name and the name ofteammate Mick Schaum’sgrandmother Jan Smith. Theevent doubles as a scholar-ship tournament and an Or-gan Donor Registry event.

“We also have four inter-national students this yearand these young ladies areshowing great promise asbowlers,” said Hutchings. “Ilove that we will be sendingthem back to their homecountries with an apprecia-tion for the great game ofAmerican Tenpin.”’

The full season schedulewill be in next week’s issue.
