CHARLEVOIX — e city is re-searching parking options to present aproposal to city council in Decemberand some of the downtown businessowners are giving their input for thecity to consider.

John Ochs of Central Drug Storesent a letter to the Downtown Devel-opment Authority to express his rec-ommendations to the DDA and to citystaff.

Ochs does not want meters to be re-moved. He suggested that the metersbe enforced, however, only from July 1through Labor Day.

“e rest of the year there are plentyof parking spaces available,” Ochs said.“We need to send a message to localresidents that we want their businessdowntown.”

Many downtown employees saythere is only a problem during the Ve-netian Festival. During festivals andart fairs remote parking could be anoption. Shuttle buses would transportvisitors, as the Beaver Island BoatCompany currently does, where cus-tomers park at the Charlevoix MiddleSchool and ride a shuttle bus to thedocks.

Scott Barta who works downtownsaid he rides his bicycle to work dur-ing the week of Venetian Festival.

“I know what to expect and I deal

Of course, a big draw forthe Apple Festival is the deli-cious assortment of locallygrown produce, homemadebake goods, and hot food of-fered throughout the week-end.

“e hot food items, in-cluding chili, hot dogs,pasties, kielbasa and more, aresold by area non-profit organ-izations,” notes Ferguson.“Apples are from orchardgrowers from Charlevoix andEmmet Counties, and thoseoffering products in theFarmers Market must havebeen a part of our summerseason Farmer’s Market in

order to qualify to be anApple Festival vendor.”

at is, aer all, how theApple Festival began overthree decades ago. It was de-signed as a smaller scale eventhonoring local orchards fortheir efforts in bringing theharvests of Northern Michi-gan produce to the area, thestate, and the nation.

Since that initial event heldsome 33 years ago, the An-nual Charlevoix Apple Festi-val has grown to encompassnot only a celebration of thelabors and products of localfarmers, it is also a celebrationof the autumn season itself,with a huge cra show withover 125 exhibitors, entertain-ment, children’s activities in-cluding pony rides, a pettingzoo and face painting, AND aplethora of fresh produce.

Over 30 types of apples willbe on hand at the festival, in-cluding several vintage vari-eties that are not easy to find.Pumpkins, squash, jams,honey and cider are amongthe many other tasty, andhealthy, treats that will beavailable during the three-dayevent.

New to the festival this yearis the 1st Annual PumpkinCarving Contest, which willbe held downtown in BridgePark. To enter, bring a hand-carved pumpkin to the AppleFest t-shirt booth in East Parkon Friday, October 14th be-

tween noon and 5:00 pm.Participants will be dividedinto two age categories: ages12 and under, and 13 and up.Ribbons will be awarded tothe 1st, 2nd & 3rd place win-ners in each age bracket.

“On Friday evening,” Fer-

guson states, “we will light upthe pumpkins and the judg-ing will take place. It shouldbe great fun!”

And fun is what the AppleFestival is all about. What awonderful way to enjoy thesights, sounds and flavors ofthe autumn season while

FOCUS ONtHE FAmILY

with Jim Daly & Juli Slattery

Q: Years ago my former hus-band was convicted of mo-lesting our daughter (nowage 9), and his parole will beending soon. Our children(we also have a son, age 11)haven’t seen him since 2002and neither one remembershim. I’ve been told he’s in agood church and is doingwell. I’m trying to decide if heshould have any contact withour children — even lettersand pictures. I’m not comfort-able with this and I don’t wantto risk hurting my kids againafter we’ve made so muchprogress. But I also don’t wantmy kids to hate me or blameme for not letting them knowtheir dad. What do you think?

Juli: Your situation is such adifficult one! It sounds likeyou’ve had to walk through alot of pain. I can understandyour hesitancy to reconnectyour children with their father,even in light of the healing andgrowth he appears to have ex-perienced.

e parent-child relation-ship is sensitive. A child is in acompletely vulnerable posi-tion, trusting a parent to pro-vide safety and love. When aparent violates that trust insuch a harmful way by abusingor molesting his children, herightfully forgoes the privilegeof parenting.

As harsh as it might sound, Iwould discourage you from

initiating contact between yourchildren and their father rightnow. ey’re too young to un-derstand that dad may lovethem, but may not be a safeperson for them to be around.Perhaps you could encourage arelationship when they’re older(late teens or early adults) andless vulnerable to being hurt bytheir dad. In the meantime,their safety and innocence areyour top priority.

Your children may be resent-ful that you’re withholdingfrom them a relationship withtheir father. But parents some-times need to make difficultand unpopular decisions thatare in the best interests of theirkids, trusting that with timethey will understand.

Q: After two years of mar-riage, my wife says shedoesn’t love me anymore.This is devastating becauseI love her with all my heart.There’s no abuse or nastyhabits, we attend churchregularly and we’ve bothbeen faithful. But this is notthe first marriage for eitherof us. Until I was asked tomove out several monthsago, I seemed to have agreat relationship with herand her two sons. She saysshe’s “not happy” and un-less her feelings change in60 days, she’ll file for di-vorce. What can I do?

Jim: Your desire to preserveyour marriage is commend-able. It’s impossible to knowfor sure without more infor-mation, but your wife seems tobelieve that the marriageshould end simply because shedoesn’t feel “in love” with youany more. e strongest mar-riages grow out of a rock-solidcommitment on the part ofboth spouses — a commitmentthat doesn’t waver with fluctu-ating emotions and feelings. Infact, it’s possible that if yourwife could grasp the impor-tance of the commitment shemade to you when you gotmarried, those feelings of lovecould return.

Regardless, it’s imperativethat you and your wife find aquality marriage counselorduring this critical time — onethat can help you both workthrough your feelings and finda way back to that bedrock ofcommitment. (For help infinding a counselor, visit Focuson the Family’s website.) Ifyour wife still feels the sameway aer visiting the counselor— or if she won’t agree tocounseling in the first place —you should not beg her to stay.But I pray it won’t come tothat.

Mother must protect kids from ex-husband

Dr. Juli SlatteryJim Daly LANSING--Comprehensive legislation tohelp protect Michigan from an ecological catas-trophe and millions of dollars in lost revenuewas approved ursday by the Michigan Senate,said lead sponsor Sen. Howard Walker.

Senate Bills 508 – 510 would establish theGreat Lakes Basin Aquatic Invasive Species(AIS) Advisory Council to determine how tobest protect the state from continued invasionsof aquatic invasive species.

“We can no longer react to threats fromaquatic invasive species as they present them-selves. Creating this council is about enactinglong- and short-term plans to head off an inva-sion before it threatens our lakes,” said Walker,R-Traverse City. “is council will be composedof experts from the Great Lakes region who willwork on the necessary plan to prevent, eradicateand monitor aquatic invasive species through-out the region.”

Walker, who is vice chair of the Senate Appro-priations subcommittees on Department of En-vironmental Quality (DEQ) and Department ofNatural Resources (DNR), compared the coun-cil with the Great Lakes Basin Water ResourcesCompact.

“With the compact, we protected the quantityof the water; now we’re protecting the quality,”Walker said. “As an official representing resi-dents who live on three of the Great Lakes, Iknow the importance of a healthy ecosystem toour economy and our way of life. I am thankfulthat the Senate has taken this critical first stepand look forward to working to finalizing thesevital initiatives.”

Under the new legislation, the AIS councilwould work with the DEQ and the Office of theGreat Lakes to update and implement the state’sexisting AIS management plan. e measureswould also require the council to review all ex-isting state laws on aquatic invasive species andmake recommendations for strengthening pro-tections against further invasions.

SBs 508 – 510 now head to the MichiganHouse for consideration.

Senate approves Walkerlegislation to protect the Great

Lakes from invasive species

Norwood Township citi-zens crowded into the town-ship hall Tuesday night tospeak to the CharlevoixCounty Road Commissionboard about designation of aroad.

Statements made wereoverwhelmingly in support ofdesignating Lake Shore Drivethat runs through NorwoodVillage and through Clipper-view subdivision in the town-ship a “Natural Beauty Road.”

But there were several de-tractors who said they weren’tagainst the designation, how-ever the road needed work to

remedy the problem withmud.

e designation is recog-nized by the state of Michiganand allows the township tobend the usual rules a bit. Forinstance, gravel roads may bepaved to existing widths in-stead of a standard 22-footwidth. Speed limits on Natu-ral Beauty roads are typicallylower than normal to allowpeople to slow down andenjoy the scenery.

e road commissionboard will review the com-ments from citizens and makea decision on the designationof a Natural Beauty road.reporterbjh@gmail.com

nearly everyone in the norwood township hall on tuesday, oct. 11raised their hand in support of designating lake Shore Drive a “naturalBeauty Road.”

Not a good idea …                                                      Dear Dave,I live in New York, and even

though I follow your adviceand live on a budget, it’s reallyhard to save up for a downpayment on a house. My fam-ily in South Carolina advisedme to buy cheaper propertydown there, fix it up and flip itto get the money I need. Doesthis sound like a good plan toyou?

AdrianDear Adrian,I wouldn’t do it. Fixing and

flipping properties is a veryhands-on business, and tryingto do it from another statecould be a nightmare – espe-cially with the weirdness intoday’s economy.

When you take on this kindof work you need to overseewhat’s happening every step ofthe way. You’re also workingout the details, and keeping aneye on the crew to make surethey’re doing things right. Be-sides, you can’t just walk up toa house, buy it, and expect toget a great deal.

Professionals who fliphouses for a living oen lookat 100 or more properties tobuy just one. It’s not an easyway to make money, and it’sdefinitely not something toconsider doing from a dis-tance.

Just keep on working thebudget and save as much asyou can. You might even con-sider getting a part-time jobfor a while to bring in someextra cash. But waiting andsaving up is a lot smarter planthan fixing and flippinghouses 900 miles away!

It’s your wedding!Dear Dave,My girlfriend and I recently

got engaged, and our parentsare contributing financially tothe wedding. We’ve noticedthat both sets of parents arepressing their ideas of whatthey’d like the wedding to belike, who to invite and who toinclude in the wedding party. Iknow in the end it’s our call,but traditionally do parentshave some kind of say if they

contribute money to help payfor the wedding?

Chris Dear Chris,No. Traditionally, they take

a say. And traditionally they’rea pain in the behind! But theyonly interfere because they’reso excited and love you somuch. ey want to be part ofthe happiness and for every-thing to be perfect.

As soon as they deliver a lit-tle girl, lots of mothers startplanning their daughters’wedding. ey’ve had severalyears to dream and form anopinion on this, and your fi-ancé’s mom has probably beendoing it, too.

Since this is such an emo-tional event, I think you twoneed to have some reasonableboundaries. But you alsoshould keep in mind that yourparents are just as excited – ifnot more – than you guys are.When you come to a disagree-ment tell them firmly, but gen-tly, that you love them, butyou’re going to do things yourway. If they’re footing part ofthe bill they’d have the right todecide not to pay for some-thing, but unless there’s somemoral issue involved theyprobably won’t act badly.

I think if you just step backand take a breath you’ll realizewhat a big deal this is toeveryone involved. Chancesare you’ll also be able to comeup with some creative ways toallow them to participatewithout your wedding losingits identity.

My biggest suggestion toyou is to make sure that you’rethe buffer between your fiancéand the parents. Don’t let any-one push her around, and doeverything you can to makesure your wedding is what youboth want it to be!

—Dave

SurgeonsAn affiliate of Charlevoix Area Hospital

Hosted by:Marc Lame,MD

Charlevoix Area Hospital (CAH)and its affiliates have le paperrecord-keeping behind and trans-ferred to a fully electronic system.e Cerner Millennium system nowin use at CAH is produced byCerner, one of the top companies forhospital data management world-wide. is state-of-the-art system isan important upgrade for the hospi-tal, as it adds a new level of securityand confidentiality to patientrecords. Cerner is the same sowarevendor used by Munson MedicalCenter, Northern Michigan RegionalHospital, and Spectrum Health Sys-tems.

e change took place a few weeksago, although it has been in theworks for more than a year. anksto extensive preparation, Dave Priest,R.N. and Director of InformationTechnology, says that the transfer hasgone wonderfully. “We had signifi-cant involvement from all clinics anddepartments to bring this together,”he says. e hospital has installedwireless networks throughout thecampus to allow for mobile carts andlaptops that will display patientrecords as needed.

With the old system, each patienthad a paper chart. Using the elec-tronic system, the records are nowaccessible by doctors anywhere in thehospital or in the affiliate medicalcenters and practices. Added securitymeasures include encryption andpassword protection, as well as re-mote servers that store the data. Interms of the increase in security,Priest explains it this way, “I wouldmuch rather have my own records inan electronic system than a paper

system. A piece of paper doesn't tellyou who looked at it. is system hasan audit trail, so each person wholooks at the screen is monitored andmust sign in with a password to viewthe record.” All changes to the recordare recorded as well, and the com-plete history is available for the doc-tor to view when treating a patient.

e electronic system has addi-tional benefits in regards to disburse-ment of medications. A new bar codesystem scans the code on medicationand on the patient ID bracelet beforethe medication is administered. ehand-held scanner is programmedto alert caregivers in cases of incor-rect dosages, drug interactions, or al-lergies, making inaccurate drugadministration less likely.

“Undoubtedly one of the most im-portant issues of patient safety hasbeen improved with this system,”says Joseph P. Hawkins, Chief Phar-macist. “Additionally, the height,weight, and allergy fields are manda-tory in this system, which meansthey won't be inadvertently over-looked in an emergency.”

Another bonus, Hawkins adds, isthat pharmacists no longer have toworry about being able to read doc-tors' handwriting when filling pre-scriptions. Now orders,prescriptions, and reports are typeddirectly into the computer, taking il-legibility out of the equation forerror.

is system also shows patient testresults alongside the medical records.In the past, doctors had to requestthe records separately. Now, CATscans, X-rays, MRIs, and EKGs canall be viewed directly on screen from

the same interface as the interactivemedical chart. For patients, this isimportant, because it puts all of thepertinent information directly at thefingertips of a doctor, so that he orshe can get the full picture of a pa-tient's health.

e electronic medical records willalso connect to the state registry ofimmunizations, which means thatdoctors can determine what andwhen past shots were administeredand reduce the chance of missing animportant immunization. Patientscan rest assured that the new systemwill include their past records as wellas ones for new procedures. Old pa-

tient records were scanned into thenew system, making them accessiblenow as well.

“We are light years ahead of wherewe were,” says Chris Wilhelm, VicePresident of Operations. “Today,doctors and nurses in training acrossthe country all learn how to use anelectronic system. While our pastsystem did work, we now have thebest technology available, and it willdefinitely improve patient care andefficiency.”

Part of the process of implement-ing the new electronic system in-volves updating all of the patientinsurance and billing records. Even if

you have been to the hospital before,you will need to bring your currentinsurance card and a photo ID toyour next visit. Expect the first visitto take a little longer than usual, asregistration will need to accuratelyupdate all of your information, in-cluding your billing address and con-tact information. Aer that initialvisit, the information will be in place,and all subsequent visits should pro-ceed quickly as usual.

To learn more about the newbilling or medical record system,contact Chris Wilhelm at CharlevoixArea Hospital at 231-547-4024.

To encourage home radon test-ing, the Health Department ofNorthwest Michigan is waivingits $15 charge for radon kits dur-ing National Radon Action Week.Free test kits can be picked upduring regular business hoursOctober 17-21 at Health Depart-ment offices in Bellaire,Charlevoix, Petoskey/HarborSprings, and Gaylord. Pleasebring your Property Tax Identifi-cation Number with you; it isneeded to map radon levels in thefour-county Health District.

e World Health Organiza-tion and U.S. Environmental Pro-tection Agency predict radon gaswill be the leading cause of lungcancer for non-smokers in 2011.One in 15 American homes con-tains high levels of radon. Mil-lions of Americans areunknowingly exposed to thisdangerous gas. In fact, a recentstudy by Harvard Universityranks radon as America’s #1 in-home hazard.

Scott Kendzierski, Director ofEnvironmental Health Services,said the only way to know if youare exposed to elevated radonlevels is to test your home. “For-tunately, testing for radon is easyand inexpensive. And if you dis-cover that you have a problem,the Health Department can pro-vide free consultation and ifneeded, help you find a contrac-tor to correct the problem.”

Radon is a naturally-occurring,invisible and odorless radioactivegas. It is dispersed in outdoor air,but can reach harmful levelswhen trapped in buildings. Bytaking simple steps to test yourhome for radon and fix if neces-sary, this health hazard can beavoided.

e Health Department ofNorthwest Michigan is mandatedby the Michigan Public HealthCode to promote wellness, pre-vent disease, provide qualityhealthcare, address health prob-lems of vulnerable populations,and protect the environment forthe residents and visitors ofAntrim, Charlevoix, Emmet, andOtsego counties.
