MORLEY Morley Stanwood Community Schools will learn to become unstoppable from inspirational speaker Craig Conrad on Oct. 17. In addition to Conrads presentations for students, the community is invited to hear his advice on improving the lives of their families and children from 7 to 8:15 p.m. on Oct. 17 at Morley Stanwood High School. An all-you-can-eat spaghetti dinner will be served in the high school cafeteria from 5 to 6:30 p.m. before Conrads event. The cost is $5 per person for everyone older than 5, with proceeds going to the junior and senior class funds. Conrad, who has 25 years of teaching experience, has addressed more than 142,000 students, teachers and parents across the country with his The Unstoppable You character development program. The author of Unstoppable: Inspiring Lessons for the Unstoppable You, Conrad also has developed an easy-to-use curriculum to help teachers communicate the concepts to their students. While at Morley Stanwood, Conrad will give presentations for all seventh- through 12thgraders, a leadership session for 40 high school juniors and seniors and the free community event on Oct. 17. Kindergartners through sixth-graders and staff members will host Conrad on Oct. 18. Shari ONeil, an English and geometry teacher at MSHS, was instrumental in bringing Conrad to the district. Her brother, a teacher at Chippewa Hills School District, gave her Conrads Unstoppable book. After reading it, ONeil contacted Conrad and he told her he also did school presentations. I thought every teacher in my building should read this, ONeil said. Unstoppable is based on Conrads experiences as a teacher. As budget cuts threatened to end the shop program at his school, Conrad was given one year to make the class a success, which led him to develop the Unstoppable strategy that ultimately generated revenue for the shop class and made students in it more successful. After ONeil presented Conrads program to Morley Stanwoods anti-bullying committee, the group worked to bring Conrad to the district. His presentation will address bullying as well as drug and alcohol abuse, ghting apathy and working to be above average. The Morley American Legion and Country Inn and Suites in Big Rapids, plus numerous school groups, helped fund Conrads presentation. For more information, visit www.craigconrad. com or call MSHS at (231) 856-4444.

Fruit offers ber and minerals to improve performance in class, provide energy for sports and curb appetites. Encouraging children to eat fruit as their snack may also help reduce their risk for cardiovascular diseases, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and strokes later on in life. Get creative during the school year with your afternoon snack preparations. One way to go is to stuff different fruit concoctions in whole wheat tortilla wraps to add a hearty twist to a sweet snack. For example, try this quick and easy Banana and Raisin Wrap recipe from La Tortilla Factory: Banana and Raisin Wrap 1 La Tortilla Factory-100 Calorie Whole Wheat Tortilla. 1 small banana, sliced. 2 tablespoons of raisins. 4 tablespoons of fat-free whipped cream cheese. 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon powder. Directions: Lay the wheat tortilla on a plate and spread the cream cheese very evenly. Layer banana slices along the center of the tortilla. Sprinkle the raisins over the bananas, then sprinkle the cinnamon powder over the layered fruit.
To wrap the tortilla, fold in each end. Then take one side and roll away from your body in a tight jelly-roll manner. The end product should be a tight roll oozing cream cheese and bananas.
Share | (NewsUSA) - Along with the beauty that cooler days give us also comes fewer daylight hours. While you should practice caution when driving no matter the season, its important to take extra precautions this time of year to prepare yourself and your vehicle for nighttime driving. As the days get shorter, and inclement weather descends upon us, Firestone Complete Auto Care would like to provide the following tips. * Develop a habit to make sure your tires are properly inated, rotated and in good condition. * Make sure your lights and mirrors are clean and properly positioned. Incorrectly aimed headlights can temporarily blind other drivers and reduce your ability to see the road. Properly aligned mirrors also reduce blind spots. * When in doubt, turn on your headlights. Even if they dont help you see better, theyll make it easier for other drivers to see you. * Use high beams sparingly. Live in an area with high fog? Its not a good idea to use your high beams. Instead, you should use only your low beam headlights, since high beams reduce your ability to see. Some newer vehicles even come equipped with special fog lights.
BIG RAPIDS Through a new fundraising partnership, families can now get a professional portrait and support a local food pantry for just $30. Brad and Sharon Byers, owners of PhotoBoutique, will take family portraits for a special fee of $30 from now until Nov. 24, with all of the proceeds beneting the Manna Pantry. Participants can write off the expense as a donation to a nonprot, and they also get a free 8-by-10-inch photo with the option to order more. This is a neat opportunity. Its a win-win, said Isabel Kempton, coordinator of Manna Pantry, located in St. Andrews Episcopal Church.
* Maintain your ability to see well, and adjust your vehicles interior lighting if necessary. If streetlights cause a lot of glare, dim your dashboard lights and use your sun

* Switch your rearview mirror to its night setting. By changing the angle of the reective surface, the lights reecting in your mirror will appear to be dimmed.
shouldnt make a hasty decision. Neglecting to weigh the costs and potential risks could put rst-time landlords in a poor situation. Moco, Inc., a company that provides screening services to property owners, managers and employers throughout the United States, offers the following tips: * Look at the numbers. Renting might not be the best option. If youre going to lose money each month, it might make more sense to sell, even if you wont get your asking price. Consider all potential costs, including property taxes, income taxes on your tenants rent, maintenance, and the normal wear and tear your property will experience. Remember that you wont be able to pocket all of the rent money; you will have to put a portion of it back into the property. * Find quality tenants. Nightmare tenants can be, well, a nightmare. Prepare for a careful screening process. Many private landlords cant access the quality screening products available to larger businesses without going through a lengthy certication process. However, you can avoid time and expense by asking your applicants to visit MyScreeningReport.com. The report includes a consumer credit report, SSN verication, comprehensive criminal search, eviction search, national sex offender registry search and an OFAC (federal terrorism database) search -- everything you need to determine whether a potential tenant meets your standards. * Use an all-encompassing lease. Whether you use a template or hire an attorney to write your lease, make sure that the lease clearly states your expectations. The lease should state who is responsible for what, when you expect rent to be paid and what
penalties you will impose if it is late. For more information, MyScreeningReport.com. visit www.
* Clean your windshield inside and out. Keeping your windows clean -- especially the windshield -- is crucial to road safety. Wipe down your windows each time you wash your car, and rell wiper uid regularly.
temperature. Tire pressure drops about 1 psi for every 10 degrees F drop in ambient temperature. Additionally, tires can lose as much as 1.5 psi per month as air escapes the tire and rim naturally. Its best to check tire pressure when the car is off and tires are coolest. * Heed the TPMS warning symbol. All passenger vehicles and light trucks sold in the U.S. from 2008 onward have a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) system installed. If the TPMS warning symbol lights up on your dashboard, one or more of your tires is 25 percent or more underinated -a signicant loss in pressure. Take caution, and do not ignore the TPMS warning symbol. * Find a safe place to pull out of trafc to stop and check your tires. If you are not having a blowout, use a tire gauge to check the pressure of each tire against your vehicle manufacturers recommended pressure level. Inate tires to correct pressure at the nearest service station or repair facility. The recommended pressure level can be found on the tire placard, a label located just inside the drivers side door. * Dont forget the spare. Before long drives, always check your spare for any injuries or punctures. For more tips on how TPMS ensures driver safety, please visit www.TPMSMadeSimple. com.
Whether its in the bright of day or dead of night, you should always take the necessary precautions to ensure that youre driving safely and that your vehicle is road ready. www.
According to a May 2010 online survey commissioned by the National Apartment Association, 76 percent of consumers think that renting is preferable to owning a home in todays market.
Likewise, some homeowners believe its better to rent out their home than to sell it for less than its worth, if they can sell it all. Those considering renting out their property

Bullybuster at BRMS
Dennis Dull from the MOISD came to Big Rapids Middle School to kick off this years Bullybuster initiative. Each grade level had a chance to interact with Mr. Dull and role play what typical bullying looks like. Dennis Dull chose students to be the following parts: Bully, Victim, Superhero, Lollipop guild, curiosity seekers, and so on to get students to see how each group plays a role in bullying. In some Babetta Davids cases teachers played some of the roles. Kindergarten class, from Brookside Elementary, took a field trip on September 22nd to Anderson & Girls Orchard. They learned how apple cider is made, then took hay wagon rides out to the apple orchard for apple picking. Next, they went to the field for pumpkin/gourd selecting. Anderson Orchards also has a live animal exhibit where they learned about farm animals. Pictured, top photo, Babetta Davids with her class. Middle photo, l-r, Kelsey Holt, Evan Lake, Amir Bailey, Marcus Sheperd and Nolan Baldwin. Bottom photo, l-r, Ezra Black, Hannah Ribble, Amerion Brown and Jamie Hoover take turns petting a goat.
