The time is getting closer
for the Third Annual
Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot
in Gaylord! The friendly, yet
competitive Turkey Trot in
Gaylord has become a big hit
over the last couple years, and
at the third annual Gaylord
Turkey Trot, we expect noth-
ing less.
The first two years, the
Gaylord Turkey Trot at
Gaylord Regional Airport benefitted the
Friendship Housing Center. Due to its
closing earlier this year, the turkey trot
funds will go toward Toys for Tots, a
charity that collects toys and clothing
each year with the mission of bringing
hope and joy to every child at
Christmas.
The turkey trot includes a 5k and
one-mile run/walk at 9 am on
November 28th, Thanksgiving morning.
The course, located at the GaylordRegional Airport, 1100 Aero Drive, starts
on the tarmac and continues around
the perimeter road to the south end of
the airport. Sixteen different age divi-
sion winners will receive a trophy for
fastest time. Race director Jeremy Speer
adds, This was created as a race for
charityits competitive, but fun. We
want to promote a healthy lifestyle and
get people moving. Its a good opportu-
nity to give back while having a good
time.
Matt Barresi, the director of the
Gaylord Airport, is hosting the event for
the third year and looks forward to join-
ing Toys for Tots coordinator Rosie
Warner: We cant do this alone; we wel-
come the partnership and are excited
about being involved in an event that
provides a new and healthy experience
for families. Barresi also coordinates
Wings Over Gaylord, the annual air
show held in June at the airport.
Add on a new holiday tradition foryears to come by spending
Thanksgiving morning being active with
your family. Its a great way to bond with
your loved ones, and an opportunity to
finally beat your siblings at something!
For just $30 per runner, you can get
the satisfaction of helping families in
need, receive a long-sleeve event t-shirt,
and- if youre the fastest in your age

PETOSKEY - Local publisher and transla-
tor Joshua Snider announces the release of
his first book, An Outline for a Comparative
Grammar of Some Algonquian Languages;
Ojibway, Cree, Micmac, Natick[Massachusett] and Blackfoot. The book is a
translation of a comparative grammar of five
Algonquian Native American languages by C.
C. Uhlenbeck, first published in Dutch in
1910. Mr. Snider, who is fluent in German,
Dutch/Flemish and Swedish, has translated
this book into English for the first time. The
book has been expanded, corrected and
improved in the form of translators notes
based on more recent material.
Mr. Snider worked on the translation and
additions for several years and has recently
published the book through Mundart Press.
Copies of the book can be found at McLean
and Eakin Booksellers, Horizon Books,
Indian Hills Gallery, The Sign of the Loon,
the Petoskey District Library and NorthCentral Michigan College Library.
North Centrals Library will host Snider on

and book signing. The presentation will
begin at noon and will cover the contents of
the book and some of the benefits and chal-
lenges of incorporating the comparative
method into language learning. The book
signing will be from 1 p.m. until 3:30
p.m. Refreshments will be provided.
Snider is a Petoskey native and grew up in
a multicultural household with his
Mennonite grandparents, parents and
Misanabee Cree half-sister. Over the years,
he has watched his Native American friends
and family, which include Native Americans,
struggle to hold on to their ancestral lan-guages. He has studied second languages
intensively since the age of 14 and the
Germanic languages since the age of 16. He
created the publishing company Mundart
Press to produce language learning materials
for marginalized and endangered languages.
He is currently working on English transla-
tions of works by the Yiddish author Itzik
Kipnis. Snider lives in Petoskey with his wife,
Sarah and son Declan. For more informa-
tion, please email Mr. Snider at mundart-

Its a clean machine, chimes Paul
McCartney in the classic Beatles tune;
Penny Lane. For Gaylord area residents
and visitors looking for the ultimate self-
service or automatic wash facility for
cleaning their machine, the path leads
down M-32 west, at the corner of
McVannel, to the location of JnJ Alpine
Auto Wash.
Area builder, Jim Jeffers, and his wife,
Jennifer, purchased the facility in July of
2009 and made several upgrades to the
establishment, including adding doors
to the self-serve and automatic bays, to
make the task of washing vehicles dur-
ing cold weather months more comfort-
able.
We work very hard to ensure the
facility is clean inside and out, states
Jeffers. We are also committed to
attentive customer service. Our on-site
technician, Virgil Koronka, is there to
make sure the equipment is tuned up
and operating at optimum performance,
and personally helps customers if they
have a concern.
JnJ Alpine Auto Wash has two fully
automatic bays and four self-service
bays. Vacuums, carpet shampooers and
even interior fragrance products are also
on hand to add those final finishing
touches to their customers vehicles.
The self-service bays have extra-height
doors so they are able to accommodate
vehicles that may not fit into other car
wash locations.
All of the water we use is fresh, notes
Jeffers. The soap tech who services our
location commented that we have one
of the cleanest water supplies in his
northern Michigan coverage area. What
that means for our customers is they
wont end up with water spots on their
newly cleaned vehicle.
During the year, Jeffers estimates the
location serves and average of approxi-
mately 100 vehicles a day, with peak
season being in March and April when
each the automatic bays alone can serve
up to 200 vehicles a day.
JnJ Alpine Auto Wash offers specials
for returning customers, such as
Commercial Fleet Account discounts
and VIP Coupons; which gives the hold-
er a free wash after five regularly priced
washes. They are also active in commu-
nity fundraising for non-profit organiza-
tions, and have a St Mary School
fundraiser on Wednesdays between 3
and 9 pm, with ten-percent of all car
wash proceeds during that period going
to the schools teacher fund.
We believe strongly in supporting our
local economy, states Jim Jeffers. We
understand it is very important to do
our part in helping to boost our local
economy.

Choosing a locally owned store gen-
erates almost four times as much eco-nomic benefit for the surrounding
region as shopping at a chain, a new
study has concluded. The analysis also
found that eating at a local restaurant
produces more than twice the local
economic impact of dining at a chain
restaurant.
The research firm Civic Economics
analyzed data from fifteen independent
retailers and seven independent restau-
rants, all located in Salt Lake City, and
compared their impact on the local
economy with four chain retail stores
(Barnes & Noble, Home Depot, OfficeMax, and Target) and three national
restaurant chains (Darden, McDonalds,
and P.F. Changs).
The study found that the local retail-
ers return an average of 52 percent of
their revenue to the local economy,
compared with just 14 percent for the
chain retailers. Similarly, the local
restaurants re-circulate an average of
79 percent of their revenue locally,
compared to 30 percent for the chain
eateries.
What accounts for the difference?
Independent businesses spend much
more on local labor. They also procure
more goods for resale locally and rely
much more heavily on local providers
for services like accounting and print-
ing. 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.

The Alanson Village Council has adopted a
tobacco-free policy for its four parks.
According to Council clerk Iris Lesh, the new
policy supports the Council's belief that
tobacco use in park areas is detrimental to
the health of everyone using the park sys-
tem.
Our goal is to demonstrate to youth that
tobacco use is not a part of a healthy
lifestyle," Lesh said. "We believe that this
policy can play a part in reducing youth
tobacco use in our community, which will
eventually save lives." She added that par-
ents, officials and other community leaders
can serve as positive role models for youth
by choosing to live tobacco-free.
Susan Pulaski, Community Health
Coordinator for the Health Department of
Northwest Michigan, said she is thrilled to
see Alanson joining the ranks of communi-
ties and park systems that are formalizing
their commitment to healthy, tobacco-free
living for residents.
"By adopting this policy, Alanson is aff irm-
ing that tobacco use and secondhand smoke
don't belong in park areas, where people go
to improve their fitness and enjoy nature,"
Pulaski said. She noted that Alanson's policy
will reinforce the recently-
adopted 24/7 tobacco-free
school policies, and con-
tribute to a tobacco-free
environment throughout the
community.
Pulaski added that theHealth Department is look-
ing forward to helping other
communities and organiza-
tions institute tobacco-free
policies throughout Antrim,
Charlevoix, Emmet and Otsego Counties. For
more information about tobacco-free parksand beaches, contact Pulaski at (231) 347-
5813.
The Health Department of Northwest
Michigan is mandated by the Michigan
Public Health Code to promote wellness,
prevent disease, provide quality healthcare,
address health problems of vulnerable popu-lations, and protect the environment for the
residents and visitors of Antrim, Charlevoix,
Emmet, and Otsego counties. For more

Each of us p rojects energy or vibrations,
through our thoughts and emotions.
According to The Law of Attraction, thatenergy is the source of who we are, our sense
of well-being, and what we attract in our
lives. "Like attracts like." If your thinking is
negative, you will attract negative events. If
your thinking is positive, if you anticipate
that positive things are going to happen for
you, your vibrations will be positive and you
will attract positive things.
So, how do we shift our thinking to create
what we want instead of dwelling on what
we don't want? First, we need to start to
believe that how we think can make a differ-
ence in our lives. You already know that
thinking negative thoughts doesn't feel good.
Thinking positive, uplifting thoughts feels
better, even if your life situation is not exact-
ly what you want it to be. Your thinking
can get you closer to your goals.
According to the Law of Attraction,
you attract what you believe. There is
probably a constant stream of thoughtsin your mind. They can be negative
thoughts about yourself or your situa-
tion. Negative thoughts will bring about
more negative thoughts and lead to neg-
ative events. What you are thinking
becomes real. Ever notice how some
people just seem to be unlucky? One
bad event follows another in what seems
like a never-ending cycle.
We can also think positive thoughts.
Positive affirmations help us to do that.
A positive affirmation is a brief, positive
statement with the goal of countering
the negative thoughts. By overwhelming
our minds with repeated positive state-
ments, we can undo the negative thinking
that has pre-
vented us from
achieving our
desires.
Imagine whatyou want to
bring into your
life. You list
might include
losing weight or
having loving
relationships.
An affirmation
would state that
desire in a posi-
tive way and in
present tense,
as though it has
already hap-
pened.
Something like, "I am a perfect weight for
my body" or "I have loving and harmonious
relationships." You have to be ready to
believe that these events could take place in
your life for the statements to work.
Create one or two statements for each ofyour desires. Write them down and post the
statements in places where you will see them
regularly. Repeat the statements to yourself
at least ten times per day. To increase the
power of these statements, repeat them out
loud while looking in a mirror.
Affirmations are a way of reminding your-
self what you want in your life and changing
your energy or vibration to be open to those
events becoming reality. As you continue to
repeat the statements, your subconscious
will increasingly come to replace the nega-
tive thoughts with these positive thoughts
and the power of your mind will be open to
offer opportunities for you to achieve your
desires.
Submitted by Anastasia Bragg,
president of Teens for Life
The Gaylord Teens 4 Life are on a
mission to make a difference for life.
On Friday, November 8th, the Teens
took this mission to the New Life
Pregnancy Resource Center in Gaylord
as they donated $1,356.90 to New Life
to update their Earn While You Learn
program, a series of educational DVDs
and materials for young parents.
It was amazing to know that thetime we put into this project paid off in
a big way, and that we were able to be a
part of this program that makes such a
big difference in our community, said
Teens 4 Life member Rebecca Cooper,
referring to the work that New Life
does. The teens agreed that the hard
work of raising these funds was more
than rewarded with the knowledge that
they had made a valuable contribution
to New Lifes work.
The Teens raised the money through
their baby of the year contest which
took place last month, and made the
donation in honor of Levi Sefton, one
of the most inspiring babies in the con-
test, who recently passed away.
We are honored to be able to
memorialize Levi through this dona-
tion, said Teens 4 Life president
Anastasia Bragg, Levi was a beautiful
baby, and it seems fitting to celebrate
his life by helping other babies and
families with the money raised through
the contest.
The Teens 4 Life participate in a wide
variety of pro-life activities throughout
the year, including the upcoming Red-
Eye Bus Trip to the National March for
Life in Washington, DC on January 21st,
2014. Teens 4 Life always welcome
interested teens to come check out
their meetings. The next meeting will
be held Tuesday, December 3rd,
6:30pm at Calvary Baptist Church. For
more information about the Teens 4
Life contact Anastasia Bragg at baby-

Throughout your career, you have
been working hard to save in one or
more retirement accounts. Then, once
you retire, youll have some new deci-
sions to make. But one choice has
already been made for you: the age atwhich you must start taking with-
drawals, or distributions. Its a good
idea to familiarize yourself with these
distribution rules because they can have
a big impact on your retirement income.
And you may even want to take action
before the end of the year.
Here, in a nutshell, is the story: Once
you reach age 70, you must begin tak-
ing taxable withdrawals known as
required minimum distributions, or
RMDS from your traditional IRA and
most other retirement plans, such as a
401(k) plan, a 403(b) plan or a 457(b)
plan. A Roth IRA, however, is not subject
to RMDs.
If you turned 70 in 2013, you may
want to take your first RMD no later
than Dec. 31. You could wait until April
1, 2014, to take your initial distribution,
but youd then have to take your nextone by Dec. 31, 2014 and two distri-
butions in one year could have a sizable
impact on your taxes. After youve taken
your first RMD, youll have to take one
by Dec.31 of each calendar year for the
rest of your life or until your account
balance is zero.
These minimum distributions are cal-
culated annually based on your age,
account balance at the end of the previ-
ous year, marital status and spouse's
age. If you do not meet the annual min-
imum distribution, you may be subject
to a 50% penalty on your underpay-
ment, plus ordinary income tax as the
funds are with-
drawn.
Of course, whileyou have to take at
least the mini-
mum distribution
from your retire-
ment plans, you
can always take
more but
should you?
Theres no one
right answer for
e v e r y o n e .
Obviously, if you
need the money,
you may have to
go beyond the
minimum when
taking distribu-
tions. But if you
have enoughincome from
other sources
such as invest-
ments in other
accounts, Social
Security and even
earnings from a
part-time job
you may want to stick with the mini-
mum distributions and leave your
retirement accounts as intact as possi-
ble for as long as possible, thereby
allowing them to potentially continuegrowing on a tax-deferred basis.
Whatever your decision, youll want
to allow sufficient time to determine the
size and timing of your RMDs, because
if you have several retirement accounts,
you may need to make some choices.
For example, if you have more than one
IRA, you can add the RMDS and take the
combined distribution amount from
any one or more of your IRAs. And
if you have more than one 401(k), you
must calculate your RMDs separately
for each plan. To help ensure youre
doing things by the book, consult with
your tax and financial advisors beforeyou start taking your RMDs.
You work hard to build your retire-
ment plans. So, when its time to start
tapping into them, youll want to make
the right moves.

8/13/2019 Weekly Choice - November 21, 2013
18/20
By Charles Hall
Choosing glasses (even if you dont need
them, you can get them with clear glass) isnow all about style glasses can make you
look smart, funky, cool, elegant, retro, and
yes, even add that just a little bit nerdy
element. It all depends upon how daring
you are.
Remember when the entire American
attitude towards eyewear could be
summed up in the phrase men seldom
make passes at girls who wear glasses?
When the stock in trade of romantic
movies was the transformation of the
Plain Jane by dramatically taking down
her severe bun hair-do and removing her
glasses and, suddenly Ginger Rogers! Or,
for boys, that moment when you over-
heard the girls playing Mystery Date.
They were comparing you (and yourbrown horn rims) unfavorably to
Poindexter, the nerd. Well, those days are,
thankfully, long over girls now have 24
different dates to choose from in
Mystery Date, and eyewear or the lack
of it is simply a fashion choice and, final-
ly, as Bill Gates well knows, nerds are way
cool.
The downside? Well, to ride the crest of
the trend, you need a wardrobe of eye-
wear, which may set you back a few bucks
for example, a years supply of Acuvue
disposable contacts can cost anywhere
from $100 to $175, while glasses can cost
in the thousands -- more than worth it in
terms of fashion impact and confidence in
any situation. It all begins with a trip tothe eye doctor, who not only can update
your prescription and tell you of any eye
problems you might have (and new ways
of fixing them) but recommend specific
types of eyewear which might be appro-
priate for you depending upon your
eyes, some types of contact lenses may
work better than others, not everyone can
wear the soft gel or disposable types due
to particular sensitivities or other condi-
tions. You should, however, consider con-tacts as a fashion choice if youve ever
longed to have a different color eye
todays contact lenses come a wide variety
of colors designed to either look natural or
to be a bit startling in their intensity yes,
you now can have violet
eyes like Elizabeth Taylor
or two different colors like
David Bowie. You can even
buy special effects con-
tacts that let you have irises
with leopard spots or even
cats eyes and much, much
more.
Choosing glasses (even if
you dont need them, you
can get them with clearglass) is now all about style
glasses can make you
look smart, funky, cool, ele-
gant, retro, and yes, even
add that just a little bit
nerdy element. It all
depends upon how daring
you are and how much you
want to emphasize your
eyewear choice, you can find rimless styles
that are practically invisible, try matching
frame shape and color to your face as
most eyewear experts suggest for a
round face try narrow, flat styles, for a long
thin face wider glasses may do the trick but basically its really about what looks
good on you. For everyday wear, you
might want the lightest, most unobtrusive
glasses available and, while youre at it, get
a pair of prescription sunglasses to match
youll never regret it. Then, you might
want to get a pair of classic tortoiseshell
frames in a pleasing shape for when you
want to look particularly sharp in all sens-
es of the word at a business meeting or on
a date studies have shown that people
trust people with glasses and that final
gesture at the end of the commercial when
the spokesman removes his glasses and
speaks directly to you about curing your
sinus headache? Well, that can work in
real life as well try cultivating it as a ges-ture when youre closing your next deal.
Some donts for glasses? If youre only
going to have one or two pairs, dont get
trapped into trendy colors or shapes, since
when these go out of style so do you
unless you want to waste your investment
(though some eyewear outlets may give
you something for your previously worn
frames.) Stick with classics like the
Aviator, the Wayfarer (those Ray Ban sun-
glasses that never go out of style) as well
as wire rims and half frames or if youre
really a connoisseur, check out the Italian
imports and antique frames you might
even be able to pull off pince-nez or a
lorgnette (glasses on a stick.)
