With furnaces heating up as temperaturesdrop across the state, Consumers Energy isurging homeowners to combat the cold by keeping their heating systems properly maintained, and practicing simple safety tipsthat can help ensure continued warmth.
"We want homeowners and their familiesto stay both safe and warm throughout win-ter's cold grasp, and there are some inexpen-sive and easy steps that can help," said Mary Palkovich, vice president of energy delivery for Consumers Energy.
Palkovich recommended the following safety tips:
- Furnaces should be inspected once a year using a qualified applianceservice/heating and cooling professional.
- Change air filters at least every othermonth (more often when pets are in thehome) during the heating season.
- Weather permitting, perform a visualinspection of the chimney and vent pipes to
make sure they are free of obstructions suchas leaves and nests.
- Never use gas stoves or charcoal grills toheat homes. These appliances can producedangerous amounts of carbon monoxide when used improperly.
- Never leave a supplemental heater orfireplace unattended. Keep clothing, papersand other flammable items well away fromgas appliances and supplemental heaters.
- When using generators, make sure they are connected by a licensed electrician andonly operated where there is adequate venti-lation. Never use a generator in basement,enclosed garage, breezeway or near airintakes.
- Install an audible carbon monoxidealarm that will sound if dangerous levels of carbon monoxide are present in a home orbuilding.
Taking these simple and inexpensive stepscan help make sure furnaces, boilers, hot
water and supplemental heaters operateproperly and safely.
Carbon monoxide is often called the"silent killer" because it is a tasteless, odor-less, invisible gas caused by the incompletecombustion of fuels like oil, propane, naturalgas, coal, wood, k erosene, gasoline, dieselfuel and charcoal. Deadly amounts of carbonmonoxide can be producedby defective or poorly ventedappliances that use thesefuels such as furnaces, fire-places, wood stoves, supple-mental heaters as well asgenerators and running vehicles.
Symptoms of carbonmonoxide poisoning may include headaches, nausea,fatigue or dizziness. If you
suspect carbon monoxide poisoning, moveeveryone to fresh air immediately and call911 to have the home or building tested.
Consumers Energy, Michigan's largest util-ity, is the principal subsidiary of CMS Energy (NYSE: CMS), providing natural gas and elec-tricity to 6.5 million of the state's 10 millionresidents in all 68 Lower Peninsula counties.

The inventory at Strawberry Patch ReSale-Consignment is brought in by local individu-als who receive 40-percent of the amountthose items sell for. Strawberry Patch takes
care of the tagging and mar-keting of those items, andafter a 60 day period, unsoldclothing is sent to an Amish
warehouse facility that dis-tributes that clothing to peo-ple in need all over the world.
Our location is a greatresource for people in theMio area, observesGardulski. Major shopping areas, such as Gaylord, Alpena and West Branch, areall an hour or more driveaway. So this is a conven-ient, local spot where peoplecan make some extra money
selling items, and shop for a wide assort-ment of clothing and household items.

Thanksgiving is a time to hang out with loved ones and enjoy each otherscompany. Another thing to look forward
to is the massive amount of deliciousfood youre sure to devour.
But, the smell of Thanksgiving foodresonating from your kitchen is likely toget your four-legged friend into a foodfrenzy and unfortunately, this f ood canbe lethal to them.
Here are some Thanksgiving pet safe-ty tips to ensure your holiday will behappy and healthy for the entire family:
Keep the food consistent. Dont give your pet different food than what theydnormal eat. Feeding turkey to your dog or cat can cause them unwantedabdominal pain, vomiting or diarrhea.
Keep your guests in check. Discourage
your guests from feeding your pet withinappropriate food. Snacks high in sodi-um (like peanuts and chips) and other
fatty foods (such as poultry skin, beef orpork fat) can cause an inflammation of the pancreas, which can be a potentially life-threatening condition.
Dispose responsibly. Throw away thealuminum foil, plastic wrap, and wax paper from holiday foods. If your petcan get to it, they will lick the food off foils or wraps. The swallowing of suchmaterial can cause an intestinalobstruction.
Say no to chocolate. Chocolate, whichcontains theobromine and caffeine, canbe harmful to your dog. Rapid breathing and hyperactivity are signs of bad reac-tion to chocolate. Contact your vet ASAP
is this happens!Bones are bad. Any brittle, spiky bone
could lodge in the esophagus or cause
an irritation in their digestive track. Water is good. Make sure your furry
friend has plenty of fresh water.Frequently check your pets water bowlto make sure the supply is clean.
Provide some peace. With all the holi-day activity, your pet will need a break from the party. A comfortable crate isone solution; a room with a Do NotDisturb sign is another. Give your dog or cat time and space to settle down ortake a nap.
By being attentive to these dangers, you can ensure that you and your pet will have a pleasant and memorableThanksgiving!

Its almost Thanksgiving, a holiday that once celebrated the harvest sea-son. Although many of us today may not be directly connected to agricul-ture, we still gather on Thanksgiving with our loved ones to share whateverbounty we may have. But this prac-tice doesnt have to begin and end withfood. Why not incorporate the spirit of sharing into your overall financialstrategy?
Here are a few suggestions for doing just that:
Make financial gifts. You could giveshares of stock to your loved ones, orperhaps give them money to help fundtheir IRAs. (They must have earned
income, however, to be eligible to con-tribute to an IRA.) You can give up to$14,000 per year, per recipient. If youare married, you and your spouse caneach give up to the $14,000 yearly limit.
Invest in your childrens future. Tohelp your children meet the high costsof higher education, you might want toinvest in a college savings vehicle. Oneoption to consider is a 529 plan. When
you contribute to a 529 plan, yourearnings are subject to tax-free growthpotential and distributions are free of federal taxes, provided they are usedfor qualified higher education expens-es. (Keep in mind, though, that Section529 plan distributions not used forthese qualified expenses may be sub- ject to income tax and a 10% penalty.)Furthermore, if you invest in yourhome states 529 plan, you may receivestate tax incentives. Tax issues for 529plans can be complex, though, so youll need to consult with your tax advisor about your situation. Anotherbenefit of 529 plans: You control theassets right up to the point at whichthey are actually used. So, if you havebeen putting away money for a partic-ular child (or grandchild) and he or shedecides against college, you can easily switch to another beneficiary.
Review your insurance policies. If something were to happen to you, is your life insurance sufficient to takecare of your family? In other words, would there be enough money avail-able to pay off your mortgage, send
your children tocollege and help your surviving spouse meet atleast some of hisor her retirementexpenses? A financial profes-
sional can help you determine if your life insur-ance is sufficientfor your needs.
C o n s i d e rinvolving yourfamily with yourestate plans. To
help ensure your wishes get carriedout the way you intended, considerkeeping family members informed of your estate strategy, which couldinvolve your will, living trust, power of attorney and other legal documents. And dont forget to keep your benefici-ary designations up to date on yourretirement accounts and your lifeinsurance policy. So if youve gonethrough changes in your family situa-tion, such as a divorce or remarriage, work with your profess ional team,including your financial advisor and your tax and legal advisors, to make
ensure your investment strategy aligns with your estate goals.Once the turkey is eaten and the
football games have ended,Thanksgiving will draw to a close. Butconsider these strategies sharing yourbounty with your loved ones all yearlong and throughout your lifetime.

Winter has arrived a bit earlier this year in Michigan,meaning that drivers need to be prepared earlier than ever.The resulting frigid temperatures and dangerous driving conditions have caught many people off guard causing numerous crashes. Meteorologists are predicting anotherblustery, snowy and heavy winter season and are caution-ing drivers to be extremely cautious in the coming months.
"Winter driving in Michigan can be extremely challeng-ing under normal conditions," said Pamela Harlin,spokesperson for the Meemic Insurance Company. "When you add in any form of extreme weather conditions, like anexcess in snow fall, the result can be dangerous driving conditions that require even the most skilled drivers to usethe utmost caution."
Meemic Insurance offers these 10 Safety Tips f or Winter
Driving to help Michigan drivers arrive safely and avoidcostly accidents.1. Start Clean Be sure to completely clear snow and
ice from all windows, lights, hood and roof for maximumvisibility and to avoid having ice and snow fly off your vehi-cle. Law enforcement officials are on the lookout for"peephole drivers."
2. Light it Up Before starting out, turn on your lightsto increase your visibility to other motorists.
3. Slow it Down Remember, posted speed limits arefor dry pavement. Decrease speed on icy, snow-coveredroads and allow extra distance between you and other vehi-cles.
4. Look Ahead Watch the traffic well ahead for extrareaction time. Always drive defensively and give yourself acushion of time to deal with wintery conditions.
5. Stay Away Stay well back of maintenance vehiclesand snowplows at least 200 feet (it's the law) and don't
pass on the right. Use extreme caution when passing in apassing lane.
6. Pick a Lane Avoid abrupt lane changes. There may be a snow ridge between lanes. Also, the passing lane may be in worse shape than the driving lane.
7. Take a Brake Brake early and gently to avoid skid-ding. It takes more time and distance to stop in adverseconditions. If your wheels start to lock up, ease off thebrake. Do not pump anti-lock brakes.
8. Watch for Signs Watch for signs alerting you to slip-pery bridge decks and other areas prone to becoming slick,even when the rest of the pavement is in good condition.
9. Stay in Control Don't use cruise control or over-drive in wintery conditions. Even a slight depression of your brakes to deactivate can cause loss of control on hid-den slippery patches
10. Avoid Assumptions Do not assume your vehicle canhandle all conditions. Even four-wheel and front-wheeldrive vehicles encounter trouble on winter roads. The falsesense of security these vehicles offer can leave you less pre-pared to deal with emergency situations.

Holiday stress are your holi-
days full of sleigh bells, goodcheer, warm gingerbread andPeace on Earth? Or is it too muchtime fighting traffic, overloading credit cards, entertaining relativesand feigning excitement over gifts you really dont need? Its the sea-son when you are expected tocram parties, shopping and family gatherings into your already busy life. In short, the holidays meanstress. Here are some tips to helpcope with or even avoid holiday stress:
Stay out of holiday debt know when your spending limit. Expensive gifts wontguarantee a happy holiday. If you have alarge family consider starting a nameexchange. Theres a good chance everyoneelse will appreciate a break too.
Make a shopping list and stick to it stay-ing organized will help avoid any over sightand last minute panic. As a bonus, youll beless likely to make any impulse purchasesthat you really cant afford.
Avoid the relative meltdown if everybody in your family gets along consider yourself lucky, but if your family is full of conflict andfriction it may become a battlefield. When acouple of relatives insist on sniping at oneanother, take it as your cue to go for a walk ortidy up a distant room. If the worst fightshappen at the dining room table consider
having the family meal at a nice restaurant where everyone is more likely to be on theirbest behavior.
Go easy on the alcohol dont go over-board, too much alcohol will only add to yourstress. You will probably say or do things that youll regret and you are bound to feel lousy the next day.
Keep moving - Exercise is always a greatstress reliever. Take a brisk walk around theneighborhood. A little winter sunlight candramatically brighten your mood.
Take a moment to appreciate the simplethings Getting into the holiday spirit can beas easy as putting on a nostalgic holiday tuneor making your favorite wintertime drink.
Stay flexible too many people approachthe holidays with a fixedvision of how things should
go. This year try to keep an open mind.If you are traveling, give yourself plenty of
time to get there. Slow down, take a deepbreath and try to be courteous to the driversor fellow travelers around you.
Reign in your expectations no holiday inthe history of civilization has ever gone per-fectly. Spills and squabbles and unwantedgifts are just part of the season. Just take it allin, relax, have fun and remember the holiday season only comes around once a year.
Merry Christmas, and I will see you in 2015!

UP NORTH ELECTRONICS
PH. 989.732.6731
By Jim Akans
RadioShack has been an American tra-dition in consumer electronic productsfor over 90 years. The familiar red and white letter sign dots landscapes acrossthe United States with more than 4,700company operated stores, 1,500 wirelessphone centers, and more than 1,100dealer franchises. Here in northernLower Michigan, RadioShack has been astaple retail store in Gaylord for approxi-mately 30 years; first located on Old 27and now at new expanded location inthe Edelweiss Village shopping plaza.
Store manager, Jeff Morey, states, We
have moved just five doors down fromour previous location in the Edelweiss Village. There is nearly double thespace, which allows us to expand ourproduct lines and serve our customerseven better.
Radio Shack is truly Americas elec-tronics and gadget playground. UpNorth Electronics carries everything acompany-owned RadioShack store car-ries plus additional inventory, such asham radios, CB radios and accessories,marine band radios plus stereo systemsfor boats, a complete line of remotecontrol helicopters, specialty adaptors, ahuge selection of batteries, and more.
As a regular Up North Electronicsshopper I can affirm that the store hasvirtually everything an electronics tin-kerer, hobbyist or digital age enthusiastcould possible want or need. Even the youngsters can get in on the fun withthe stores wide assortment of all-inclu-sive electronic and physics sets, such asrobot kits and even a potato-poweredclock.
Customers will find the Up NorthElectronics staff very knowledgeableabout the items they carry, and salesassociates will assist in evaluating theoften-confusing world of electronic
products such as Nooks, Kindles, i-Pads,i-Pods, Consumer Cellular pre-paid cellphones and more.
Store manager Jeff Morey has over 20 years of experience in the service side of the electronics industry. That expertiseis not only valuable when assisting cus-tomers in finding the product that willfit their needs, it allows Up NorthElectronics to offer service for a widearray of electronic items, including cellphones and computers. The staff under-stands that excellence in customer serv-ice also means offering a liberal returnpolicy, so if someone isnt sure a productis what they need, they can take it home
and try it out.
That is a big difference when buying locally versus on-line, Jeff Morey affirms. Being able to actually see aproduct, talk to a knowledgeable salesperson about how that product suits thecustomers needs, and to be able toreturn a product if it doesnt. It is alsogreat to be able to support your localeconomy when you shop.
The Up North Electronics team iscommitted to excellence in customerservice, product selection and valuepricing. Building on an American tradi-tion that began over 90 years ago,Gaylords Up NorthElectronics/RadioShack is bringing thebest in local consumer electronics retailselection and service into the 21stCentury.

Choosing a locally owned store
generates almost four times as mucheconomic benefit for the surround-ing region as shopping at a chain, anew study has concluded. The analy-sis also found that eating at a localrestaurant produces more than twicethe local economic impact of dining at a chain restaurant.
The research firm Civic Economicsanalyzed data from fifteen independ-ent retailers and seven independentrestaurants, all located in Salt LakeCity, and compared the ir impact onthe local economy with four chain
retail stores (Barnes & Noble, Home
Depot, Office Max, and Target) andthree national restaurant chains(Darden, McDonalds, and P.F.Changs).
The study found that the localretailers return an average of 52 per-cent of their revenue to the localeconomy, compared with just 14 per-cent for the chain retailers. Similarly,the local restaurants re-circulate anaverage of 79 percent of their rev-enue locally, compared to 30 percentfor the chain eateries.
What accounts for the difference?
Independent businesses spend much
more on local labor. They also pro-
cure more goods for resale locally
and rely much more heavily on local
providers 0for services like account-
ing and printing. This means that
much of the money a customer
spends at a local store or restaurant
is re-spent within the local economy,
supporting other businesses and
jobs.

A few months ago, Wellington Farm nearGrayling decided to move the TobogganHouse from the old Pioneer Hills Ski Resortto the 60-acre museum and restore it. Thebuilding was built sometime in the late thir-ties-early forties and was used to launchtoboggan loads of thrill seekers down a steephill. Eventually the ski resort ceased to oper-ate and the property was purchased by theCOOR Intermediate School District and theold lodge was converted to their administra-tion building.
The Toboggan House was used for storagefor a while but eventually was abandon.Believing that the building was becoming apossible source of liability, COOR decided todispose of it. Wellington Farm looked thebuilding over and decided that it was stillsound and a building with unique historicalsignificance and would make an interesting addition to the living history farm.
Having decided to save the building fromdestruction, a professional mover was con-tacted, terms were agreed upon and a fund-raising campaign conducted locally. In July of 2014 the building was moved off its foun-dation, the second story removed and the
two pieces of the structure moved approxi-mately 12 miles to the farm. There, in one of the farms hay meadows, the building was re-assembled.
A road had to be constructed through a wooded area to allow the building to beplaced at its desired location. The site forthe structure also had to be improved by removing trees and brush, leveling and fill-ing. The Toboggan House was then pulledover the new road and set upon the groundat its future home on Crafters Alley at Wellington Farm where it will become thefarms Loom House.
Once securely set on the prepared site,renovation of the building soon got under- way. Much filling and leveling had to bedone around the building to allow for con-struction equipment and scaffolding. Theeyebrow roof, which circled the building onthree sides between the first and second sto-ries, had to be removed to facilitate moving the structure.
During its removal, it was decided thatportion of the struc4tture was in such direcondition that it was not worth trying tosave. As a result, a complete new eyebrow
roof had to be constructed. The entire lowerlevel of the building was constructed log-cabin style using squared oak timbers. All of the cracks between the timbers had to becleaned and re-calked. Next came a com-plete cleaning of the interior facilitated with
a leaf blower and a power washer. Finally, anew coat of paint was applied to the building exterior. Door hinges were reset and all thetrim painted.
Yet to be accomplished is the landscaping and the installation of a handicapped ramp.This will be accomplished in early spring of 2015. Looms, a spinning wheel and periodfurniture will be placed in the building and it will begin operation as a working LoomHouse at the 60-acre living history complex.
Currently, Wellington Farm has three oper-ational beam looms which will go into theLoom House. It is anticipated that the Loom
House will provide hand loomed rugs which will be available for purchase at the Farm Visitor Center. It is also anticipated that weaving classes will be offered beginning sometime during the 2015 season. TheLoom House will be available for viewing by visitors on opening day, 2015.
Wellington Farm is a 60-acre living history museum located 8 miles southwest of Grayling on Military Road. The complex isoperated by Wellington Farm Park, Inc., a5013 non profit corporation.

There is a lot that I am thankful for thisThanksgiving. One of the first things that Iam thankful for is that God keeps His prom-
ises. There are a lot of promises in the Biblebut one of the most relevant ones that Ibelieve we as a nation need to pay closeattention to right now is found in 2Chronicles 7:14-15 as written in the EnglishStandard Version.
"if my people who are called by my namehumble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive theirsin and heal their land. 15 Now my eyes willbe open and my ears attentive to the prayerthat is made in this place."
I am also thankful that I was able to cele-brate my mom's birthday and for my dad'scare of her. I am thankful that we live in anation where we are still free to worship Godas we see fit. I am thankful that I was able tospend five days at the beginning of thismonth with a group of men and Fellowshipof the Sword staff on a 500 acre ranch inSouth Texas exploring what it means to be afriend of God. I am thankful that He desiresto have that relationship with us. I amthankful that in January my wife held aPampered Chef party and the consultant toldher she thought I would be a good consult-ant. I am thankful that God is a God of change. I am also thankful that He calls us tochange as can be seen in Romans 12:2 where
it is written "2 And do not be conformed tothis world, but be transformed by the renew-ing of your mind, so that you may prove whatthe will of God is, that which is good andacceptable and perfect." I am thankful thatGod opened my eyes to this a year ago on aFellowship of the Sword event in South Texas.I am not a fan of change but am moving inthat direction. I am thankful that Jesus cameand died on a cross so that we could receivethe free gift of God which is eternal life inChrist Jesus our Lord as found in Romans6:23. I am also thankful that God offers usHis grace because it is "by grace you havebeen saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not as aresult of works..." as we read in Ephesians2:8-9.I am also thankful that 2 Corinthians5:17 is true which states "therefore if anyoneis in Christ, he is a new creature; the oldthings passed away; behold, new things havecome." I am thankful that God gave me a
beautiful wife, and a great family with sevengrand kids, and that I get to be a great grand-parent the beginning of December. I amthankful that I have been able to work withthe Weekly Choice on this page for over five years. I am thankful for good neighbors whokeep watch over our home when we leaveoccasionally. As I said there is a lot to bethankful for. I could certainly continue toname more. I hope you are thankful andhave a great Thanksgiving.
