DIFFERENT TYPES OF SKIING DIFFERENT
TYPES OF BOATSBy Hannah Ball
[email protected]; 810-433-6792 Imagine zooming across the surface of the lake, skis on your feet with a life jacket on, being pulled by a rope. Water skiing has been around since 1922, when Ralph Samuelson attached two pine boards to his feet and used a close line as a tow rope on Lake Pepin in Lake City, Minnesota, according to the USA Water Ski Foundation.
See WATER SKIING on 4B
‘‘ It’s the closest thing to walking on
water.’’John Tremainewater skier
When water skiing was invented, it involved two pieces of wood strapped to someone’s feet and a clothesline for a tow rope. Now, there are double boot skis and other water sports, like wakeboarding, tubing, and knee-boarding. (Right) Local water-skier John Tremaine skis with his son.

Don’t be so mean! Since Valentine’s Day was four days ago I was not re-ally planning to write about it. But something came to my attention on Wednesday that changed my mind. When I was in elementary school, I used to love Val-entine’s Day. Each year, our teacher would have us deco-rate a container, or a mailbox of some sort, to hold all the Valentine’s the kids in the class would share with each other on the big day.
About two weeks before Valentine’s Day, we would go to the store and pick
out a box of Valentines. It was important to make sure they relayed the pictures and messages that best fit our personalities. This was seri-ous business. A few days before Valen-tine’s Day, I would open my new box of little cards and with the class list at hand, start making them out. Once I was done with my
cards, my mom would ask to see them. “Where is Darrel’s,” she asked. I did not like Darrel and she knew it. But for some reason she had a soft spot in her heart for him. To this day I have no idea why. Darrel was creepy. He had greasy blond hair. He wore black horn-rimmed glasses with a piece of tape holding them together at the bridge. They were always slipping down his nose and he was constantly pushing them back up. He was always sniveling. “I’m not giving him one,” I an-swered. “Why not,” she asked, now with her hands on her hips. “Because I don’t like Darrel, he is creepy,” I said. “You are going to give him one just like all the other kids in the class, do you understand?” “Yes, Mom.” My mother, of course, was right. It wasn’t very nice of me to exclude Dar-rel and he would have known and prob-ably be hurt because I never gave him any reason to believe that I didn’t like him. I just stayed out of his way and ignored him. On Wednesday, I learned that the little daughter of one of my husband’s cousins had a very bad Valentine’s Day experience. This cousin was killed in a tragic freak car accident four and a half years ago. He had a little girl. She adored her daddy and her daddy adored her. She still doesn’t understand why her “daddy had to die.” This little girl attends one of Fen-ton’s elementary schools. In her Valen-tine’s bag Wednesday was a note from another child saying nasty things about her dead father. Her mother said this is not the first time it’s happened. I’m sure her mother will handle this with the school district, but parents please, watch what your little kids are saying and writing. It’s not just the teenagers. Having one young child write mean things about another child’s deceased parent, and then give it to her, is completely unacceptable on any day, let alone a day that is reserved for love and friendship. By the way, I found Darrel on Face-book. He aged fairly well I guess. He seems to be running for sheriff in the county where he lives, is married and active in his community. I’m happy about that.

By Hannah [email protected]; 810-433-6792 President’s Day is Monday, Feb. 19. To celebrate the most famous men in American government, here are 12 in-teresting facts about the past presidents.
Warren G. Harding, the 29th president, gambled away all of the White House china in a poker game. He formed the “Poker Cabinet” during his term with members of his cabinet and often drank, even though Prohibition was in full swing.

Andrew Jackson was a vicious political op-
ponent. In the 1828 election, he spread rumors about his op-ponent and incumbent John Quincy Adams that he offered “ser-vices” of an A m e r i c a n c h a m b e r -maid to Tsar Alexander I while serv-ing as am-bassador to Russia.

11. John Adams, the second president, signed the Alien and Sedition Acts. The Sedition Acts
made it illegal to publish or speak words that had “bad intent” to “defame” the gov-ernment, or express “any false, scandalous and malicious writing” against Congress or the president. This law expired after Adam’s first, and
only, term in 1801.
Before he became president, Harry Truman owned a haberdashery business that went bankrupt in 1921
10.
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt rode in Al Ca-pone’s impounded car fol-
lowing the attack on Pearl Harbor. While the crime lord was in prison, FDR used his car, an armored 1928 Cadillac V8 Town Sedan, because it was retrofit-ted with inch-thick bulletproof glass and 1,360 kilograms of armor plating.
Bill Clinton only sent two emails in his tenure as president.
One was a text message, and the other was a message to U.S. Senator John Glenn about the Space Shuttle Dis-covery, saying that he and his wife, Hillary, had a great time at the launch. Clinton preferred phone calls and hand-written memos.
The most educated president was Woodrow Wilson, who had a Ph.D. in political sci-
ence and history from John Hopkins University. He passed the Georgia bar exam even though he didn’t fin-ish law school.
8. Herbert Hoover, the nation’s 31st president, spoke Mandarin Chinese
fluently with his wife around the White House so others wouldn’t un-derstand them. Their
family lived in China be-fore he became president.
9. Abraham Lincoln was the only presi-dent to tend bar. He
opened a bar with his friend Wil-liam Berry in Illinois in 1833, but had a hard time selling alcohol. Berry was an alcoholic and Lincoln sold his portion of the bar to Berry that year. When Berry died, Lincoln was left with a staggering amount of debt he couldn’t repay for over a decade.
Gerald R. Ford and his wife Betty were models. In 1942, Gerald, the 38th president, was on the cover of fashion magazine Cosmopolitan in his Navy uniform.
12.Lyndon Johnson was known to be a mean man. His aide George Reedy described him
as a womanizing, perverted drunkard who liked to make people uncomfortable by insisting they continue conversations in the bathrooms when LBJ wanted to
relieve himself. There are other sto-ries of him revealing his genitals
in mixed company and even peeing on a Secret Service agents leg.

fun, but were more for transportation. Tremaine learned how water ski, barefoot ski, and kneeboard, and they often went tubing. Barefoot skiing hurts the first time you do it, he said, and then your feet grow accustomed to it.
As they got older, boating technology evolved, and wake-boarding grew more popular than water ski-ing. “Water skiing is still alive, but more people are into wakeboard-ing,” he said, adding
that he wakeboards more than he water skis. The skis have evolved and now double boot skis, with two lock-in points on each foot, are commonly used com-
WATER SKIINGContinued from Page 1B Ever since then, millions of people have participated in the activity, and it has given rise to other water sports. It may be winter, but it’s never too late to plan for summer and water sports. The Detroit Boat Show is open from Feb. 17 to Feb. 25, giving people a chance to look at new models and potentially plan for fun summer activities. John Tremaine, of Fenton Township, has been water skiing since he was 8 years old. “It wasn’t something I particularly enjoyed when I was younger, but after I did it, I was glad I did,” he said. He and his family were the only ones who lived year round on the island on Lake Fenton, so their boats were for

LOOKINGBACK
at this week in
NATIONAL HISTORY
FEB. 181885: Mark Twain publishes his famous — and famously controversial — novel “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.” Twain (the pen name of Samuel Clem-ens) first introduced Huck Finn as the best friend of Tom Sawyer, hero of his tremendously successful novel “The Ad-ventures of Tom Sawyer” (1876). Though Twain saw Huck’s story as a kind of sequel to his earlier book, the new novel was far more serious, focusing on the institution of slavery and other aspects of life in the antebellum South.
FEB. 191970: The Chicago Seven (formerly the Chicago Eight–one defendant, Bobby Seale, was being tried separately) are acquitted of riot conspiracy charges, but found guilty of inciting riot. The eight anti-war activists were charged with the responsibility for the violent demonstra-tions at the August 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
FEB. 201985: In a highly controversial vote, the Irish government defies the powerful Catholic Church and approves the sale of contraceptives. Until 1979, Irish law prohibited the importation and sale of contraceptives. In a 1973 case, McGee v. The Attorney General, the Irish Su-preme Court found that a constitutional right to marital privacy covered the use of contraceptives.
FEB. 211972: In an amazing turn of events, President Richard Nixon takes a dramat-ic first step toward normalizing relations with the communist People’s Republic of China (PRC) by traveling to Beijing for a week of talks. Nixon’s historic visit began the slow process of the re-establishing diplomatic relations between the United States and Communist China.
FEB. 222014: One of the world’s most-wanted criminals, Joaquin “El Chapo” (“Shorty”) Guzman Loera, head of the Sinaloa car-tel, the world’s biggest drug trafficking organization, is arrested in a joint U.S.-Mexican operation in Mazatlán, Mexico, after outrunning law enforcement for more than a decade.
FEB. 231978: Music fans might expect that the songs up for Best Song consideration at the 1977 Grammy Awards included songs that have stood the test of time, like Stevie Wonder’s “I Wish,” Elvis Costello’s “Allison,” Tom Petty’s “American Girl” or Bob Marley’s “Jammin.’” In actual-ity, the Academy of 1978 considered a slate of songs from 1977 that included only one timeless classic (“Hotel Califor-nia”). And, in the end, Grammy voters that year made history by failing even to settle on a winner. On Feb. 23, 1978, both Bar-bra Streisand’s “Love Theme from A Star Is Born (Evergreen)” and Debby Boone’s “You Light Up My Life” were awarded the Best Song Grammy — the first and only tie in that category in Grammy history.
FEB. 241868: The U.S. House of Representatives votes 11 articles of impeachment against President Andrew Johnson, nine of which cite Johnson’s removal of Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton, a violation of the Tenure of Office Act. The House vote made President Johnson the first presi-dent to be impeached in U.S. history.

pared to slip-in ski boots. “As you get better, it’s definitely an adrenaline rush to be going across the wake at 50 miles an hour,” he said. “It’s the closest thing to walking on water.” Along with the evolution of ski-ing, the evolution of boats has also changed water sports. Nowadays, the boats are faster and the ropes are shorter so experience is more intense. “Back in the day, the boats were designed ‘the smaller the wake, the better,’” he said. “They were designed to not have a wake. You don’t want wake when you’re water skiing. When wakeboarding came about, they designed boats for wake-boarding with bigger weights in total contrast.” As the boats made bigger wakes, boat companies accidently brought another sport to the lakes— surfing. “I see quite a few people doing that,” he said. If you’re looking to join a group for water sports, the Silver Lake Ski Club performs during the summer every week on Silver Lake in Fenton. Here are the best boating options for certain activities, according to discoverboating.com. Boating for sport If you’re interested in trying a wa-ter sport, research high performance boats and jet boats for speed, along with boats specifically for skiing, wakeboarding and surfing that make the biggest wakes. These boats are normally smaller, compact, and not meant to haul a lot of people. Boating for leisure/family If you’re looking to cruise around a lake with your significant other or your wife and kids, you have many options. Bowriders and Cuddy Cab-ins are fast speed boats good for touring a lake, going to the swimming hole, and pulling a tube full of kids. Deck boats are also speed boats, but with added room to carry extra pas-sengers. When it comes to accommodating the most people, pontoons offer the best options with a wide open seating plan and extra room to store towels and toys. Boating for fishing There are dozens of options for fishing boats, from all-purpose fish-ing boats, bass boats, center consoles, and smaller aluminum fishing boats. To choose the best fishing boat for you, call any of the marinas and water sport stores in the area, like Silver Spray Sports, Action Water Sports, Aqua Water Sports, Freeway Sports Center, White’s Landing, Lake Ponemah Marina, or C&C Sports.

FUNERAL ETIQUETTE
When you arrive at the funeral home,
go to the family, and express your
sympathy with an embrace or by
offering your hands.
Don’t feel as though you must avoid talking
about the person who has died.
Talking can help the grieving process
begin. If you were an acquaintance of the deceased but not well-known to the
family, immediately introduce yourself.
Do not feel uncomfortable if you or the family member becomes emotional or
begins to cry.Allowing the family
to grieve is a natural healing process.
However, if you find yourself becoming extremely upset,
it would be kinder to excuse yourself so
as not to increase the strain on the family.

I am a pop singer born in Barbados on February 20, 1988. I had a tough childhood
and sold clothes in a street stall with my father. I started singing at age 7 and released
my first album in 2005. My first hit was about a device that blocks the rain. Answer in this edition of the Tri-County Times
Guess Who?
CHICKENCORDONBLEU “’Cordon Bleu’ is a French term, literally translated as ‘blue ribbon’, that originally referred to an award for culinary excellence given to women cooks! The term can now apply to any superior cook (yes, men too), and also to this dish (chicken, ham and Swiss cheese slices, breaded and sauteed). This yummy version adds paprika and a creamy white wine sauce worthy of its own blue ribbon. Two blue ribbon tastes in wedded bliss — Chicken Cordon Bleu!”
INGREDIENTS• 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves• 6 slices Swiss cheese• 6 slices ham• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour • 1 teaspoon paprika• 6 tablespoons butter• 1/2 cup dry white wine• 1 teaspoon chciken bouillon granules• 1 tablespoon cornstarch• 1 cup heavy whipping cream

DIRECTIONSPound chicken breasts if they are too thick. Place a cheese and ham slice on each breast within 1/2 inch of the edges. Fold the edges of the chicken over the filling, and secure with toothpicks. Mix the flour and paprika in a small bowl, and coat the chicken pieces. Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and cook the chicken until browned on all sides. Add the wine and bouillon. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear. Remove the toothpicks, and transfer the breasts to a warm platter. Blend the cornstarch with the cream in a small bowl, and whisk slowly into the skillet. Cook, stirring until thickened, and pour over the chicken. Serve warm.

Many pet owners would never intentionally harm their companion animals. In fact, pet owners often go above and beyond to ensure their animals are well cared for and content. However, many well-meaning people may be in-advertently harm-ing their pets with something they provide each and every day: food. Obesity is on the rise among pets. The Association for Pet Obesity Prevention says that 54 percent of dogs and 59 percent of cats in the United States were categorized as overweight or obese in 2016. That marks an increase from 52.5 percent and 58.3 percent, respectively, from four years ago. The major-ity of veterinarians think that pet obesity is a significant problem and nearly half of pet owners admit that their vets have discussed a pet’s ideal weight with them during pet health visits.
PET WEIGHT AND APPEARANCE Body weights for pets are based on breed ideals and may not necessarily apply to dogs and cats of mixed breeds. For example, a golden retriever should weigh between 65 and 75 pounds. A domestic cat should weigh between eight and 10 pounds. But vets will consider a host of variables to determine if a given pet is a healthy weight. Vets advise that dog owners should be able to easily feel and count dogs’ ribs when they run their fingers across the side of the animal. Pets viewed from above should display an hourglass figure that includes an indentation near the midsection. The absence of this
The growing problem of pet obesity“waist” may indicate a problem.
When observing a pet from the side while he or
she is standing, a slight upward
slope of the stomach should be visible. A l o w - h a n g i n g abdomen means abdominal fat may be present.
HEALTH PROBLEMS RELATED TO WEIGHT The Purina Pet Care Center found that overweight pets may live two years less than ideal weight pets. Reduced life span is not the only problem, as carrying extra pounds can contribute to various maladies. These include osteoarthritis and poor joint health, type 2 dia-betes, ligament injuries, heart and respiratory disease, kidney disease, and cancer.
EXERCISE AND FOOD Just like humans, pets need a combination of physical activity and caloric moderation to maintain healthy weights. Daily caloric needs for indoor cats range from 180 to 200 calories per day. The larger a dog is, the more calories it needs. Pet owners should work with their vet-erinarians to map out a diet and exercise regimen that can help their overweight pets shed pounds. Vets also can help determine if weight gain is due to illness or food habits. Pets need to maintain healthy diets and engage in exercise to maintain ideal body weights that will keep them healthy for years to come.
