VerLee herself has trav-

Ive been to Haiti
many times, she said. But
in 2010, she contracted
Dengue Fever.
VerLee said getting sick
sent her a message that
she should start expanding
the countries she helped.
God was saying to my
heart, Im going to have
you start expanding
now, she said. I got the
message.

After reducing his hours and responsi-
bilities at the church two years ago,
members recently learned in a letter from
Bruckner that he would fully retire.
"I would describe him as very loving,
caring man of God who has been an
encourager of people in their faith and
supported them in their problems in trou-
bled times and someone who is loved by
the entire congregation," said Harry
Jones, a close friend and member of St.
Michael since 1985. "Now, people realize
he is going to be completely stepping
back from leading."
Bruckner came to St. Michael in April
1978 and was the pastor for many years,
then senior pastor as the staff grew, Jones
said. Bruckner has been pastor emeritus
for the past two to three years.
Despite his retirement, Bruckner will
continue to be a part of the church
community, worshiping at St. Michael,
participating in the disabilities ministry
and visiting nursing homes on Saturday
mornings.
Bruckner's wife, Manna, also recently
retired from the Lutheran Health Network
where she was a nurse for many years.
Now, the two plan to spend time traveling
and being with their children and grand-
children.
An avid runner for many years,
Bruckner has no plans on stopping during
retirement.
On Saturday, Dec. 17, and Sunday,
Dec. 18, St. Michael will give everyone a
chance to offer their well wishes during
special coffee hours after church service.
"There is a sense of loss and he will be
missed," Jones said of his friend. "But, he
is still a member of church and will be
worshiping there, and will continue to be
a friend to everybody."

Dec. 20 is longest night of the year

and prayers of intercession, a press statement
said.

How to give without giving
The financial stress of the holidays
can be caused by more than
affording presents for family and
friends. It is a time of year when
reaching out to those less fortunate
seems all the more important, but
there are often choices to make in
order to do so, from cutting back on
gift giving, to donating much less, or
not at all.
In fact, nearly seven in 10 Ameri-
cans said in a recent report by
Campbell Rinker that they will
give more sparingly to charities
in the coming months.
But new ways to give without
giving could be the solution to
stretching that holiday dollar. The
way in which we donate to chari-
table organizations is changing in
such a way that the average
consumer may not have to choose
between a gift or donation.
It is all done in a network of
good, so to speak, through Good-
Dining, GoodSearch and GoodShop.
The funding effort allows consumers
to donate to local charities without
even realizing it, whether they are
out for a meal, searching the Web, or
shopping online.
San Fransisco-based GoodSearch,
a Yahoo-powered search engine and
GoodShop, an online shopping and
coupon portal, launched almost
seven years ago. Within that time,
GoodSearch has donated more than
$8 million to user-designated chari-
ties and schools.

Sporting equipment store encourages
customers to play it again
If the Play It Again Sports store sign on
Coldwater Road looks familiar, thats
because it is. There was another store that
existed in the area from 1987-1998.
Ashok Dyal-Chand, owner of the new
store, said the old store was one of the
first stores in the entire chain. Its been a
13 year absence and we certainly needed
that representation.
Dyal-Chand did not own the old store,
but his background in retail, sales and
management inspired him to open a
NEW location last month. An interest in
sports also piqued his interest.
Fort Wayne and [the] surrounding area
is pretty big into sports, he said. Youth
through adult. He plays tennis and foot-
ball recreationally.
The premise of Play It Again Sports is
simple. It buys and sells sporting equip-
ment, new and used.
Dyal-Chand said about 60 percent is
new and 40 percent of the stores stock is
used merchandise.
The store carries a wide array of
sporting products.
The only thing we do not sell is
anything that shoots any archery or
firearms, paintball, no air soft just for
liability, he said. We do not sell any
field and stream stuff hunting, fishing
or camping, and no bowling.
He said everything else is pretty much
up for grabs, including snow, field,
court, water sports, fitness, cardio
machines, mobile fitness and
freeweights.
Dyal-Chand said one of the stores
biggest segment is on ice hockey.
The Play It Again Sports store are all
across the country, he said.
Were the fourth largest sporting
goods retailer in the company. Were the
only ones that sell used as well as new.

See SPORTS, page B3
Selling sporting equip-
ment is simple as well.
When customers bring
in merchandise that they
need or dont want
anymore, we pay them
cash or check on the
spot, Dyal-Chand said.
What somebody doesnt
need, somebody else
will.
He said trades can also
be made for products.
The nice thing about
this [is] you can create
your own discount if you
find something in the
store, he said.
But the sporting equip-
ment to be sold has to be
in gently used condi-
tion.
Dyal-Chand said age
and condition, scratches
and blemishes are big
factors for how much
money a customer will get
for selling a product.
I dont buy anything
for the store that I
wouldnt consider for
myself, he said. We
dont want anything thats
damaged [or] broken.
He encourages
customers to check out
their products and see if
they have anything they
would like to try to sell.
We all have something
in our basements or
closets or attics that we
dont need anymore. Its
nice especially for
parents, when youre
outfitting your kids for
sports. it certainly adds up
when you have to buy
them new merchandise.
Play It Again Sports
also has a local sister
brand, Dyal-Chand said.
Platos Closet is owned by
the same company. He
said both of the stores
benefit customers.
People have an alterna-
tive to paying the big box
retailer, he said.
Play It Again is located
at 4430-C Coldwater
Road and regular store
hours include: 10 a.m.-8
p.m., Monday through
Friday; 10 a.m.-6 p.m. on
Saturday and noon-5 p.m.
on Sunday.

and skills needed to modify behavior and
successfully self-manage the disease and
its related conditions. It is provided by
diabetes educators. This also means that
residents in and around Huntington County
will now have increased access to diabetes
education services.
Leslie E. Kolb, RN and Diabetes Educa-
tion Accreditation Program Director said
educational efforts are changing.
Trends show that diabetes education is
moving out of the hospital and into the
community, so AADEs accreditation
program was created, in part, to encourage
diabetes education where the patient is
seeking care, she said.
Parkview Huntington Hospitals
diabetic education program is exactly the
type of program we envisioned when we
set up our accreditation program in 2009.

ington Hospitals diabetes education

What Does Investment Landscape
Look Like in 2012?
As an investor, you know that
2011 was a somewhat choppy
year, with the financial markets
going through many ups and
downs. So what can you expect
in 2012?
As baseball Hall of Famer
Yogi Berra is quoted as saying:
Its hard to make predictions
especially about the future.
And these words are certainly
applicable for anyone who
would like an accurate forecast
of the investment climate.
Yet we do know of some
factors that may affect your
portfolio in the months ahead.
Here are a few of them:
Strong business fundamen-
tals This past year, all the
noise about the debt ceiling
debate, the size of the U.S.
deficit and the European
financial situation tended to
drown out some fairly good
news: U.S. businesses balance
sheets were strong for the most
part, borrowing costs remained
low, and corporate profits were
good and corporate profit-
ability remains a key driver of
stock prices. Heading into 2012,
these fundamentals continue to
look positive, which may bode
well for investors.
Europes debt crisis
Greeces economic problems
made a lot of news in 2011, but
they werent the end of the story
in Europe, as major financial
difficulties also face Italy, Spain,
Portugal and Ireland. Its by no
means clear how these problems
will be resolved, so dont be
surprised to see them lead to
intermittent, if short-lived,
shocks to the markets.
Election-year patterns As
youre well aware, were voting
for president in 2012. But you
might be surprised to learn that
the S&P 500 index has shown
negative returns in only three of
the last 21 presidential election
years. Coincidence? No one can
say for sure and at this point,
no one can say if this pattern of
positive returns will continue
during this election year. Still,
its an interesting phenomenon.
So there you have it: the
good, the bad and the quirky.
Take them all together, and you
still may not be able to foresee
what will happen with the
markets this year, but youll
have a lot to think about. But
instead of trying to predict what
will happen in 2012, you may
be better off following these
tried-and-true investment
strategies:
Diversify your holdings. By
spreading your money among a
wide range of investments, you
can reduce the effects of
volatility on your portfolio. Keep
in mind, though, that diversifi-
cation, by itself, cant guarantee
profits or protect against loss.
Dont ignore your risk
tolerance. If you worry exces-
sively about market fluctuations,
you may have too much risk in
your portfolio, which means you
may need to make some
changes.
Always look at the big
picture. Financial markets will
always fluctuate. But if you can
keep your focus on your
long-term objectives, and make
decisions accordingly, you can
avoid overreacting to short-term
events.
Like other years, 2012 will
bring with it periods of both
turbulence and smooth sailing.
But by making the right
investment moves, you can still
chart a course that can allow
you to move ever closer to your
future goals.

MarkleBank
program helps
people become
financially literate
MarkleBanks Financial
Literacy Program
continues to grow. The
bank offers a comprehen-
sive financial educational
program that is designed
to reach every segment of
local communities, regard-
less of age or economic
background, a press
release said.
Debbie Durnell, a
retired business teacher,
was hired during the
summer to be the Finan-
cial Education Director.
Durnell will help facilitate
the educational efforts.
The goal of Markle-
Banks Financial Literacy
Program is to help people
in our communities better
understand banking and
finances by providing
information, resources,
and presentations to
schools, public seminars,
businesses, service clubs,
church groups, expos and
events, the release said.
This year and next, the
bank will work with the
community to share
banking know-how.
We are tremendously
excited to have the ability
to share our financial
knowledge with our
communities Darnell
said. We are fortunate to
be able to make a differ-
ence in the financial
education of the people in
northeast Indiana.
She said the educational
program is important now,
due to the changing
economy.

education director for Markle-

Clinic urges child flu vaccines now before holidays
Because flu season peaks in
January and February, Super Shot is
asking parents to vaccinate their
children now before the holidays.
In the U.S, 5 to 20 percent of the
population will contract the flu.
Over 200,000 people will be hospi-
talized from flu complications, and
approximately 36,000 will die.
Children are at particular risk
because of their developing immune
systems.
Anyone who lives with or cares
for young children, including
siblings and daycare providers,
should get vaccinated against flu.
Children under 6 months old are too
young to be vaccinated; the best
way to protect them is for house-
hold members and caregivers to
receive the vaccination, according
to the release.
Super Shot offers the injectable
flu vaccine and Mist; injection is
suitable for children ages 6 months
through 18 years; Mist is recom-
mended for healthy children ages
two to 18.
Parents are required to bring their
childs shot record and a Medicaid
card, if applicable.

locations, call 424-7468,

How it works
Before shopping online, the consumer
visits www.GoodShop.com. Once there,
they can choose from a list of local or
national charities of which to donate. This
task must only be completed once; all
future shopping will automatically desig-
nate donations to that charity on the
consumers behalf.
After the user has chosen a favorite
charity and registered the credit or debit
card that will be used at checkout, they
simply click through to their favorite store
and shop, with a percentage of what they
spend going toward the cause.
Remember: There is no additional fee
added to donate to the cause. A
percentage of the purchase price is
donated to the charity by the participating
retailer.
There are a growing number of local
organizations currently utilizing the
service to raise funds, including the Fort
Wayne Ballet, the Croninger Elementary
School PTA and the American Red Cross
of Northeast Indiana, just to name a few.
Further enticing consumers to use the
website are the more than 100,000
coupons GoodShop offers for shoppers to
score the best deals. Coupons can be
accessed from the GoodShop.com home
page.
The same theory applies to Good-
Search, but instead of designating a
percentage of dollars spent, about a penny
per Yahoo!-powered search via Good-
Search.com is donated to the users
favorite charity. It may not seem like
much, but consider this: Yahoo! powers
9.4 billion Web searches per month,
according to the December 2009 esti-
mates from comScore. Thats $94 million
in potential donations per month and well,
thats not too shabby.
What about donating to a good cause
simply by treating holiday out-of-towners
to a delicious meal? GoodDining.com
works with more than 10,000 restaurants
across the country, including local
eateries right here in the Fort. With
every meal, up to 6 percent of the bill is
donated to the diners favorite charity. To
get on board with this fundraising effort,
diners should visit GoodDining.com
before eating out, choose a favorite
charity and register the credit or debit
card that will be used to pay the meal bill
in order to donate a percentage of it to
charity.
In Fort Wayne, participating restaurants
include Takaoka of Japan, 305 E. Supe-
rior Street; The Gas House, 305 E.
Superior Street; Sushiya-US, 2882 E.
Dupont Road; Chappells Coral Grill,
6328 W. Jefferson Blvd.; and Chops Steak
& Seafood, 6421 W. Jefferson Blvd.
But what about those persons who
simply cannot spend a dime this season
on anything, whether it be gifts, dining or
donating? This next option may be of
interest: Get rid of old gadgets and
gizmos by sending them to Gazelle for
Good, which generates money from
unwanted electronics and donates it to
charity.
To do it, users visit Gazelle.com to
create a personalized gadget drive Web
page. Potential gadget donors can send
their used electronics to the users
gadget drive via Gazelle for Good. The
cash generated is distributed directly to
the users charity by Gazelle for Good, or
can be sent to the gadget drive user so
they can personally deliver the cash dona-
tion to their charity of choice.
It is not only a way to give back
without spending any money, but a good
excuse to clear out space for the
impending barrage of presents.
But no matter which charitable tool is
used to give without giving this season,
there is one thing that really cant be
denied.
Its all good.
For a complete list of Fort Wayne
organizations that are raising funds
through GoodShop, GoodSearch or
GoodDining, visit www.GoodShop.com,

Hungry for home-style,
stick-to-your ribs, made-
from-scratch food that you
dont have to cook yourself?
Thats just what the newly
opened Cottage Kitchen and
Caf in Roanoke is all
about. That and their deli-
cious baked goods,
homemade sweets, and ice
cream.
Situated between U.S. 24
and Locust Street (the north
end of Main Street), the
Cottage Kitchen & Caf is a
cozy spot and tucked in
between the hills and the
trees of Roanokes north
side. Located in the same
place as the old Paragraph
96 bar, it bears no resem-
blance to the former
business. This tidy, sweet
little caf is all windows
across the front with a view
of beautiful, mature trees
and a winter wonderland
when it snows.
Run by mother/daughter
team Cheryl Gates
(daughter) and Edna Rupert
(mother), they are enjoying
their new relationship and
both sing each others
praises with regard to their
new venture. Rupert, self
described as just a mom
with a variety of different
work and volunteer experi-
ences, learned to cook
because she had to feed her
family. She declares that
her daughter Cheryl has the
talent in the kitchen and
takes the food to the next
level.
Its my passion, Gates
said.
I love to cook, I love
the food channels, and Im
thrilled to have this business
and the chance to make it
grow.

adviser, Gates became disil-
lusioned with the finance

industry and jumped at this
opportunity when it became
available.
Gates and Rupert got
their start at the Roanoke
Farmers Market by selling
homemade biscuits and
gravy which sold out every
week but planted the seed
of an idea for their own
business. They now supply
a location to go with their
still popular biscuits and
gravy and they have added
quiches, breakfast
casseroles, and baked goods
- with the cinnamon rolls
selling out early. They are
also open for lunch with
daily soup specials, sand-
wiches, and salads. And
they caution that you must
save room for dessert
because they have daily
cupcake specials.
They always offer their
most popular hot fudge
sundae cupcakes and lemon
bars all the time and the
cupcake flavors most
requested include (but are
not limited to): mocha, thin
mint cookie crunch, lemon
drop, raspberry lemon and
Boston Crme.
The Cottage Kitchen and
Caf is located next to the
new Event Center on U.S.
24. Still under construction,
the building will seat up to
200 and is expected to be
completed soon. The caf
is the primary caterer and
the contact for the center.
Clean, warm and inviting,
Gates & Rupert are still
settling in with pictures to
hang and the finishing
touches to add, but they are
open and cooking, ready for
business and enjoying it all.

Wayne Snow Removal
does so much to reduce
family stress and show in a
tangible way our support
for Americas military
families. Along with the
participation of Fort
Wayne Snow Removal,
there are many opportuni-
ties for the community to
get involved, including
loaning snow removal
equipment to volunteers or
groups, and donating
money, transportation or
gas cards to offset snow
removal and maintenance
costs. The SnowCare for
Troops program joins the
five-year program, Green-
Care for Troops, managed
by Project EverGreen that
has already provided free
lawn and landscape serv-
ices to thousands of
military families. This
program now has more
than 12,000 military fami-
lies in its database and is
supported by nearly 3,400
green industry profes-
sionals and volunteers. To
learn more about how to
support SnowCare for
Troops, visit www.project

Canterbury students learn
to see water differently
LINK day program revealed how wastewater is treated
Water is one of those things Americans
take for granted. It is always safe and
easily available. I recently spent the day
with about 50 Canterbury Middle School
students and revealed how water reaches
their tap and how wastewater is treated.
The students were participating in Canter-
burys Learning Involves New Knowledge
(LINK) Day program and were able to
trace this process, from the beginning, at
Aqua Indianas well field on Turf Lane.
There, students learned the water that
gushed from their shower that morning
originated 300 feet beneath where they
stood. Nature blessed Allen County with
ground water naturally filtered by soil,
sand and rock, leaving it safe from
surface pollutants, pesticides and insecti-
cides. At Aquas treatment plant, students
saw how we take the work of nature a
step further by filtering out iron, calcium,
and manganese. Now softened, chlorine is
added to ground water to eliminate
bacteria as its pumped through 150+
miles of pipe buried a minimum of 4-feet
protect it from freezing. Canterburys
educational partnership with the Little
River Wetlands Project had already shown
these students how reeds and other
aquatic plants can filter contaminates
from surface water. Aquas wastewater
treatment facilities use a multi-step
process to convert sewage back to clean
water. There were a few gasps and sneers
when I invited students to taste the water
at the end of Aquas sewage treatment
process, flowing into a creek that widens
through Eagle Marsh. This treated waste-
water is actually safe to drink and cleaner
than the creek water itself.
Water and sewage facilities in America
are held to some of the worlds highest
standards. Compare that to the African
nation of Tanzania where a national goal
was established in 2002 to make safe
water available within a half-mile walk
for 80 percent of the population. It is
likely that water wont be as clean as
Aquas wastewater discharge the students
were unwilling to taste. Hundreds of
American cities are facing extremely
expensive upgrades in the years ahead to
comply with federal water and wastewater
standards. As adults, these students may
grumble one day at the cost of clean
water. However, I hope theyll recall our
LINK Day experience and the process for
making a resource available that the world
envies.
