OUR FURRY FRIENDS HAVE ALLERGIES — JUST LIKE WE DO By Hannah Ball [email protected]; 810-433-6792 Your pet may be sneezing for the same reason you are he or she has allergies. Dogs’ immune systems can recognize substances as aller- gens, which is what happens when humans develop aller- gies, according to WebMD. When animals are allergic to something, com- ing in contact by inhalation or ingestion can be very dangerous. Animals can be allergic to trees, grass, mold spores, dust, cigarette smoke, certain foods, and other common things. Dogs with allergies can also get bacterial or yeast skin infections. With dogs, allergies are most commonly found in terriers, setters, retrievers, pugs, bulldogs, and Boston terriers. The most common type of pet allergy is atopy, which includes ragweed allergies, and pollen and dust allergies, according to drsfostersmithc.com. When dogs are allergic to a food substance, it shows in their gastrointestinal system with vomiting and diarrhea. Experts at WebMD recommend eliminating certain foods and seeing if symp- toms disappear to gure out what the animal is allergic to. Food allergies account for about 10-15 percent of pet allergies, according to drsfostersmith.com. Dogs usually have more allergies than other animals, said Chris Repke, veterinarian at Pointe Animal Clinic in Fenton, listing golden retrievers, cocker spaniels, bulldogs, and shar pei as the breeds that usually get allergies the most.

LOOKINGBACK at this week

IN LOCAL HISTORY

COMPILED BY VERA HOGAN

5 years …Sunday, June 21, 2010Area bars give mixed reviews to smoking ban. Michigan’s smoking ban in public places is affecting local bars, including fraternal orga-nizations, in different ways. Some are reporting decreased business.

10 years …Sunday, June 26, 2005Township residents furious about dangerous intersections. A fatal accident at the intersection of Lin-den and Lahring roads last Friday afternoon may not have occurred if the recommended four-way flashing red lights and stop signs had been installed by the Genesee County Road Commission.

15 years …Sunday, June 25, 2000To Russia with love. The passage of childhood without a mother, a father or any other family tie is an unbearable thought, and yet, is the reality of orphans around the world. During his third missionary trip to Russia’s Kaliningrad at the end of May, youth Minister Matt Hall of Faith Fellowship Ministries in Fenton Township reached out to orphans, extending a message of hope and love to the children of some 20 centers.

20 years …Sunday, June 25, 1995LHS grad killed by train. The life of a Linden teen came to a tragic end early Friday morning as he played a deadly game of chicken with an oncoming train. The 18-year-old was killed shortly after midnight when he and three girls were swinging off the trestle that crosses the Shiawassee River just west of Ripley Road in Linden and playing chicken with the train. The two girls jumped back and he was hit and killed.

25 years …Sunday, June 24, 1990Abandon ship! Man bails out; boat slams into sea wall. A 22-year-old Byron man was arrested Tuesday night for operating a boat while under the influence of intoxicating liquor. The arrest came after the boat he was driving hit a raft and then crashed into a sea wall along the edge of Lake Fenton.

30 years …Sunday, June 23, 1985Trial continues for ex-cop accused of Fentonite’s murder. A Genesee County Circuit Court trial contin-ues here this week for a former Flint police officer, who is charged with second-degree murder in the beating death of a drunken Fenton Township man.

n ‘How to Make Friends and Influence People’ should be required reading By Vera [email protected]; 810-433-6823  About six years ago, I returned to work as a Realtor in the Fenton area. Under the brokerage of Patrik Welty, owner of Legacy Realty Professionals in Fenton, I received a gift that literally keeps on giving.  During  one  of  our  weekly  meetings, Patrik  spoke  of  a  book  he  read,  one  he said he would never have thought to read because of its age and title — Dale Carn-egie’s ‘How to Make Friends and Influ-ence People.’  I silently agreed that the title makes it sound like a lame, how-to book, not one I would have ever read either. But, because Patrik said it, I was interested enough to obtain a copy and believe me, I could not put it down.   That Christmas, Patrik gifted each of his agents with a brand new, hard cover of  Carnegie’s  book,  which  remains  a 

valued possession.   Since then, I have acquired additional copies of this book, most recently a like-new hardcover copy from the Goodwill store in Fenton. On Saturday, I visited a yard sale and scored even bigger when I picked up a new hardcover combination of two of Carnegie’s books, the one I just mentioned and ‘How to Stop Worrying and Start Liv-ing.’  I  haven’t  read  the  latter yet, but am looking forward to digging in as soon as I can.  The  practices  suggested  in Carnegie’s  book  are  simple,  common sense  and  something  we  should  all  be doing. I firmly believe that ‘How to Make Friends and Influence People’ should be required reading at the high school level.  If every young person was required to read and learn from this book, a lot of the bullying and other nasty, mean foolish-ness that goes on with kids would be cut dramatically.  Carnegie’s  book  teaches  several  prin-ciples, and he uses historic success stories 

Special book reminds us how to be nicerto make his point and prove why they work.  The  first  10  principles  involve  a few  simple  things  everyone  can  do to become a better person. Principles 

like don’t criticize, condemn or  complain.  Give  honest, sincere  appreciation.  Arouse in  the  other  person  an  ea-ger  want.  Become  genuinely interested  in  other  people. Smile. Remember  that a per-son’s name is to that person the most  important sound  in any language. Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about 

themselves.  Talk  in  terms  of  the  other person’s interest. Make the other person feel important — and do so sincerely. The only way to get the best of an argument is to avoid it.   There are more, but you get the idea.  We need  to  learn  to be nicer  to each other and need to be reminded of that from time to time. That’s why I pick up extras of Carnegie’s book at yard sales and thrift stores — so I can give them away to the people who sometimes need reminding.

COMMONSAYINGS

The stories behind

Have you ever thought about the expressions people use on a daily basis and wonder how they became such a widespread part of the English language? Here are some common sayings and the meaning behind them.

BITE THE BULLETMeaning: Accepting something difficult or unpleasantHistory: There was no time to admin-ister anesthesia before emergency sur-gery during battle. The surgeon made patients bite down on a bullet in an at-tempt to distract them from the pain.

BUTTER SOMEONE UPMeaning: To flatter someoneHistory: An ancient Indian custom in-volved throwing balls of clarified butter at statues of the gods to seek favor.

JAYWALKERMeaning: One who crosses the street in a reckless or illegal manner

History: Jay birds that traveled outside of the forest into urban areas often became confused and unaware of the potential dangers in the city – like traf-

fic. Amused by their erratic behavior, people began using the term “Jaywalker” to describe someone who crossed the street irresponsibly.

CAT GOT YOUR TONGUEMeaning: Something said when a person is at a loss for wordsHistory: There are two possible sources for this common saying. The first refers to the cat-o’-nine-tails – a whip used by the English Navy for flogging. The whip caused so much pain that the victims were left speechless. The second refers to the practice of cutting out the tongues of liars and blasphemers and feeding them to cats.

CAUGHT RED HANDEDMeaning: To be caught doing something wrongHistory: This saying originated because of a law. If someone butchered an animal that didn’t belong to him, he had to be caught with the ani-mal’s blood on his hands to be convicted. Be-ing caught with freshly cut meat did not make the person guilty.

GIVE THE COLD SHOULDERMeaning: A rude way of telling someone he isn’t welcomeHistory: Although giving someone the cold shoulder today is considered rude, it was actually regarded as a polite gesture in medieval England. After a feast, the host would let his guests know it was time to leave by giving them a cold piece of meat from the shoulder of beef, mutton, or pork.

THE WHOLE NINE YARDSMeaning: To try one’s bestHistory: World War II Fighter pilots received a 9-yard chain of ammunition. Therefore, when a pilot used all of his ammunition on one target, he gave it “the whole 9 yards.”

RUB THE WRONG WAYMeaning: To irritate, bother, or annoy someoneHistory: In colonial America, servants were required to wet-rub and dry-rub the oak-board floors each week. Doing it against the grain caused streaks to form, making the wood look awful and irritating the homeowner.

RUN AMOKMeaning: Go crazyHistory: Comes from the Malaysian word amoq, which describes the behavior of tribes-men who, under the influence of opium, became wild, rampag-ing mobs that attacked anybody in their path.

SAVED BY THE BELLMeaning: Rescued from an unwanted situationHistory: As scary as it sounds, being buried alive was once a common occurrence. People who feared succumbing to such a fate were buried in special coffins that connected to a bell above ground. At night, guards listened for any bells in case they had to dig up a living person and save them “by the bell.”

WAKE UP ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE BEDMeaning: Waking up in a bad moodHistory: The left side of the body or anything having to do with the left was often considered sinister. To ward off evil, innkeepers made sure the left side of the bed was pushed against a wall, so guests had no other option but to get up on the right side of the bed.

SHOW YOUR TRUE COLORSMeaning: To reveal one’s true natureHistory: Warships used to fly multiple flags to con-fuse their enemies. However, the rules of warfare stated that a ship had to hoist its true flag before firing and hence, display its country’s true colors.

GO COLD TURKEYMeaning: To quit something abruptlyHistory: People believed that during withdrawal, the skin of drug addicts became translucent, hard to the touch, and covered with goose bumps – like the skin of a plucked turkey.

n It’s a mistake not to be aware of the dangers of this parasiteBy Hannah [email protected]; 810-433-6792  It’s a cloudy, warm day and you’re walk-ing your dog in the park. You’re immersed in nature with trees arching over the trails, the  sound  of  the  stream  in  the  distance, and your dog stops  to sniff almost every tree. You don’t mind. It’s a beautiful day. However, you don’t think about the blood-sucking creature waiting to crawl on your dog,  or  your  exposed  ankles.  You  don’t think about how it could give you or your dog Lyme disease in 24 hours.   It’s a mistake not to think about ticks.   A  few  popular  myths  include  the  fol-lowing: •  Ticks  are  only  a  threat  during  warm, humid seasons. • Ticks  jump on humans and animals  to suck their blood. • There’s a good chance you’ll get Lyme disease if a tick bites you.  Actually, ticks are active during winter, often crawl instead of jump, and transmit Lyme disease less than commonly believed.   These parasites are arachnids, close rela-tives to spiders, and can bite animals and humans.  The  three  most  common  types, blacklegged  ticks  (deer  ticks),  American dog  ticks,  and  lone  star  ticks  can  attach to a human or animal’s skin and feed off their blood.   A tick’s size varies on the type and stage in its life cycle: egg, six-legged larva, eight-legged nymph, or adult, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). After hatching from an egg, they need blood at every stage to survive.   Exposure to ticks is high in the woods because they like to live in bushes and trees, and the fringe area between the woods and the border. Ticks need moisture to survive and are often found near water, such as a stream or a pond.   Most people don’t realize that 75 percent of  ticks  are  picked  up  at  the  home.  Just feet from your house, ticks can be found living in woods, under bushes  and  vegetation and may jump or crawl to attach to someone or something.   American  dog  ticks are  the  biggest  and most  common.  They can  transmit  the Rocky Mountain  spotted  fever and tularemia, if attached to a human or animal. 

Ticks — the myths and dangersLyme disease• In 2013, there were 114 confirmed cases and 54 probable cases of Lyme disease in Michigan.• About 30,000 cases of Lyme dis-ease in the U.S. are reported every year.Symptoms• fever • headache • fatigue • bullseye-like skin rashAs the disease progresses, it can cause a stiff neck, joint pain, tingling or numbness in arms or legs, and facial paralysis.Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

PreventionRepel in and out of the home.Use insecticides like permethrin or N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET) to get rid of ticks. Always conduct tick checks while returning inside.Use the sunTicks can’t survive in an environment lower than 80 percent humidity for more than eight hours. Reduce tick exposure on a play set by keeping it in the sun. Monitor the landscapeIf you live near woods that are home to animals like deer, mice, and woodchucks that pick up ticks, make sure those animals don’t come near your house. Source: livescience.com

  The  blacklegged  tick,  the  smallest  of ticks, bites humans and animals in the win-ter months. They crawl, not jump. About 50 percent of blacklegged ticks carry Lyme disease and they must be attached to skin for 24-48 hours  to  transmit  it  to humans and animals.   The  lone  star  tick  is  mainly  found  in southeastern  U.S.  and  cannot  transmit Lyme disease, but can transmit ehrlichiosis and southern  tick-associated  rash  illness. They’re  becoming  more  prevalent  in Michigan, according to michigan.gov, and 

can be found in wooded areas with populations of white-tailed deer.  Moreover, the risk of a  tick bite  increases  in late spring and summer, according to the CDC.   Don’t  stop  walking your dog in the park — just be careful you aren’t picking  up  unwanted pets along the way.

Tick removalWhen removing a tick, it’s crucial not to break the head. Tweezers will work, but using a cotton swab is a definite way to make sure the entire tick is removed. Dampen the cotton swab and gently apply pressure to the surrounding area of the skin, while pushing the tick in a circle on its head, like twisting off an apple stem.

TRI-COUNTY TIMES TIM JAGIELO

Mancino’s of Fenton co-owner Mark Rummel’s heart still belongs to the newspaper business. Along with wife Sally, he

worked for 29 years as an owner and publisher in

Michigan’s thumb area.

MeetMark Rummel

tried to do more than just have employees here. And it’s working — we’re still in touch with dozens of them, and many are still our customers.What did you do prior to Mancino’s? I worked at our family newspaper in Sebe-waing, later as editor of Central Michigan Life in Mount Pleasant, as a reporter at The Saginaw News, ad sales, promo-tion and circulation director at The Times Herald in Port Huron and then owned our own weekly paper in Pigeon, also in the Thumb, which became The Newsweekly and The Thumb Blanket. The neat thing is, I’ve worked for three of Michigan’s/America’s biggest newspaper companies, including The Walt Disney Company. We were Disney employees while living in a town of 1,200 people.Why did you leave the business? We could see the future wasn’t bright for small newspapers, and I wanted to be my own boss again.

How long have you owned Mancino’s in Fenton? We moved our family here in 1998 to open the restaurant. We’re ready to start our 18th year next month.Why Mancino’s? It worked for me. There are about 80 Mancino’s restaurants in the Midwest — each one a little different from the others. But the first thing I learned is that the restaurant business is brutal. There are long hours, difficult work and thin profit margins. Several national chains in Fenton have closed.What do you like best about living and working in this community? Fenton is a great place to live and work. We love being here, near the center of Michigan. Plus, our children live only an hour away in two directions, and other family mem-bers are nearby, too.What do you like to do in your spare time? I’m a trainwatcher and a reader. I love train travel and going to nearby rail centers to watch trains. My current project is digitizing 110 years of the local newspa-pers from Sebewaing and Pigeon. There is so much history there, and people will be able to search all the old issues. The whole project will probably cost $25,000 and we’re seeking help. Also, I’ve played in oldies bands for more than 20 years, as a drummer. My high school band played on the same stage with Bob Seger one night back in 1967. That was memorable.Tell us something no one knows about you? I’m a four-year cancer survivor, after losing my bladder, prostate, a kidney and more. I feel great today. I’m grateful to the good Lord for that.Today is Father’s Day. What is your best advice to new fathers of today? First, enjoy the very special gift of being a dad. Your children will be little for such a short time, and having a dad involved in their lives is so important to them. Being a dad is so much fun, but kids grow up so fast. I tell my “Mancino’s kids,” who wonder about their future, remember the person you were four years ago, the things you liked, favorite hobbies, music, etc. The person you will be in four years from now will be much different than you are today, so it’s hard to predict what your interests will be then. Expect the unex-pected. Enjoy the life experience. After all, nobody is getting out alive.Best value in the area!

know how much you are loved and missed. You were truly one
