PAWS canine demonstrates the art of listening
Tori listens intently as Shaneil Smithreads “Tales from the Bark Side”out loud at Gardner Middle School.
Smith, a sixth-grader, reaches out topet the dog’s paw and flips the page.Tori’s gaze remains fixed, ears perked. It’sthe dog’s job — to listen.
Service dogs, such as Tori, are morethan just “man’s best friend.” They goto work every day helping the visuallyimpaired, those in wheelchairs and more.
Tori, a Shih Tzu and Cairn Yorki mix, isdisabled herself, partially paralyzed fromtwo ruptured discs. The paralysis andwheelchair didn’t stunt Tori’s outgoingpersonality at all — in fact, she becameeven friendlier, according to owner JanaNichol, of Lansing. A veterinarian recom-mended Tori become a certified therapydog, and she passed with ease.
Now Tori spends her days in the PAWS— Personal Attention With Schoolwork —program listening to children read.
“Dogs are nonjudgmental,” Nicholsaid. “They don’t care if it takes you 15minutes to read a page.”
Service dogs receive specialized train-ing specific to their jobs. Organizationslike Therapy Dogs International, Loveon a Leash, Leader Dogs for the Blindand Paws With A Cause each have theirown process of training dogs for theirjobs. There are 10 guide dog organiza-tions which train dogs for the blind inthe U.S. alone, said Rod Haneline, chiefprograms and services officer at LeaderDogs for the Blind.
“As far as service dog organizations ona whole I couldn’t even begin to tell youhow many of those there are,” Hanelinesaid.
Therapy dogs such as Tori are trainedto be good listeners that can tolerate lotsof attention and sitting still for long peri-ods of time.
Unexpected benefitsAssistance dogs have to be equally
good listeners, but their training preparesthem to be more on the move.
Jared Talaga’s ability to pick up itemsand open and closed doors became limitedafter a snow-skiing accident four yearsago left him wheelchair-bound. Charlie,a yellow Labrador, came into his life inMay.
Charlie’s tasks include retrievingitems off the ground and putting laundryin a basket.
Talaga, 21, spent more than three yearsafter his accident without an assistancedog. Besides the daily mobility help, Char-lie’s brought some unexpected benefits.
“It’s easier for people that are unawareof disabilities and how to act aroundsomeone with a disability to approach mebecause there’s a dog there,” Talaga said.“It’s easier for them because it’s just adog, and then they realize I’m normal, I’mnot that much different than them.”
For Nancy Denny, 62, service dogshave been part of her life since her col-lege days. She has been blind since birthand was paired with several dogs fornearly 10 years each. After one had tobe put down due to liver cancer, Dennyhad to wait for her new dog Macy to betrained.
“I was especially aware of what a voidwas in my life when I didn’t have any dog,and to have her come to me was such agift,” Denny said.
Macy, another yellow Labrador, joinedDenny last fall.
Crucial elementAs a volunteer at Ele’s Place and The
Listening Ear, Denny has to trust Macy toguide her to the right rooms and steer heraround any obstacles.
“I’m a very independent person, but
I can completely depend on this dog,”Denny said.
One crucial element of a service dog’ssuccess is the cooperation of the peoplearound them. Some people approach

the dog and try to petit or talk to it withoutasking Denny’s permissionfirst. In those cases, Dennyexplains to them the dogis working to guide herand shouldn’t be distractedwithout her permission.
‘Working is fun’Keeping other people
from treating service dogslike pets can be difficultenough, but the biggestchallenge for some han-dlers can be keeping thatsame attitude for theirrelationship.
“Probably the hardestthing is not treating him
like a pet,” Talaga saidabout Charlie.
“It’s really hard to say noto kids, especially becausehe’s so nice and he likesanyone that will pet him.”
Being a service dogisn’t all work and no funfor dogs like Charlie,Macy and Tori, theirowners say. The animalsderive their pleasure from
helping humans.“Working is fun to
him,” Talaga said. “Hegets excited when heworks, and when he doessomething right he getsexcited.”
As for the work the han-dlers have to put into therelationship?
“It’s worth it,” Talagasaid.

LANSING — Lansing JazzFest, heldFriday, Aug. 5 and Saturday, Aug. 6 atthe corner of Turner St. and E. GrandRiver Ave., announces 2011’s headliners:Nicole Mitchell Quartet, Dr. E, and StraightAhead.
Nicole Mitchell QuartetNicole Margaret Mitchell, a creative
flutist, composer and bandleader, has beennamed “Top Flutist 2010” by DownbeatMagazine’s Critic’s Polls and also placedfirst as Downbeat Magazine’s “Rising StarFlutist 2005-2010.” She was awarded “JazzFlutist of the Year 2010” by the Jazz Jour-nalist Association and “Chicagoan of theYear 2006” by the Chicago Tribune. Thefounder of the critically acclaimed BlackEarth Ensemble and Black Earth Strings,Mitchell’s compositions reach across soundworlds, integrating new ideas withmoments in the legacy of jazz, gospel, pop,and African percussion to create a fasci-nating synthesis of “postmodern jazz.”
Dr. EThe soulful, open-hearted, raw-yet-
refined talent of Dr. E, makes this Colum-bus, Ohio-based songstress a fast-risingjazz and soul star who shares her resonat-ing soul with her audiences, leaving themwith a sense of freedom, connectedness,and inspiration. Dr. E’s eclectic musicalinfluences have evolved into a style hall-marked by warm, bluesy tones, infectiousrhythms, fiery fretwork, and caressingvocals soaked in soul. This former EastLansing resident’s vocal range, versatility,and stage presence have been comparedto artists such as Stephanie Mills, PattiLaBelle, Ladisi, and Chaka Kahn.
Straight AheadStraight Ahead, led by jazz performer
and instructor Marion Hayden, pours itscollective heart out to its audience. Thisfive-member ensemble masterfully mixesa host of musical material with solid vocals.Straight from the heart of Detroit, they
speak volumes through their instruments.“We pull from many different directionswithin the school of jazz like Latin andswing style, which incorporates a mix ofstraight jazz and funkier side of jazz,” saysHayden.
Riverboat taxiLansing JazzFest, in conjunction with
proud sponsor Lansing Metro Marinas,offers river tours on Friday evening for anominal $1/person fee. On Saturday, parkdowntown and take the riverboat taxi fromthe Lansing City Market to the JazzFestsite. The taxi is free from 2-8 p.m. and only$1/person from 8-10 p.m.
“Community placemaking advocatesencourage residents to make the most ofthe stunning riverfront — but most localshave never taken a trip down the GrandRiver to know what the riverfront has tooffer,“ says festival vendor coordinatorKatie Kiter. “This service allows everyoneto experience the river. Don’t be afraid tobring all your kids down to enjoy the river,the music and the Kidz Beat area — youcan ride in and out Saturday for free.”
JazzFest is still accepting volunteersand sponsors. See www.jazzlansing.com orcall (517) 371-4600 for more information.

As the coordinatorof the SpeculativeBook Discussion
Group at the DowntownLansing Library, I’m oftenasked for recommendationson fantasy, horror, tra-ditional science fiction,alternative history andeverything in between.Here are a few titles fansof this genre will enjoy.
“Leviathan Wakes”by James S. A. Corey:
Corey is a pseudonymfor authors Daniel Abra-ham and Ty Franck. Thistitle is a detailed space
opera with well-developedcharacters, interplanetarypolitics, and enough hardSF and SF Noir to keepreaders on the edge oftheir seats. Executive Offi-cer Jim Holden and hiscrew answer a distresssignal, flying a small con-tingent down to The Sco-puli. What they uncover is asecret that could bring warto the entire system. Mean-while a burned out detec-tive named Miller has been
asked to track down andforcibly return a missingheiress who has settled on aspace station in the asteroidbelt. What he finds eventu-ally leads him to The Sco-puli and Holden. This is thefirst in a planned trilogy.
“Mechanique”by Genevieve Valentine:
In this story, the strangeand intriguing “Mechan-ical Circus Tresaulti...Mechanical Men BeyondImagination” unfolds withthe challenges of the pres-ent — including a namelessGovernment Man inter-
ested in the Boss’s strangegifts to rebuild her troupe— and with the importantmoments of the past thathave brought the touringcompany to a crossroad.With rivalry inside thecompany and War on itsdoorstep, the CircusTresaulti is at a turningpoint. This is a fascinatingand unique story — some-times brutal, but alwaysmagical.

contact, language and war.As a child, Avice BennerCho was made a figureof speech by the Host,strange alien beings thatshare her home world. Ina language unique in itsconstruct and delivery sheis a simile, affording hera special place in societyand buying her passageto leave Areika. Now shehas returned after yearsof crewing on deep spacevessels to find a worldof dangerous politics. Adangerous experimenttips an already fragilesystem out of balance,causing horrific events.Avice is forced to choosebetween her husband, hersociety, and the languageshe can’t speak but isindelibly part of. Theattention to andimportance of language inthis novel is impressiveand intriguing. It remindedme of Mary Doria Russell’s“The Sparrow” or UrsulaLeGuin’s “Left Hand ofDarkness,” but the style isall Mieville.
“Spiral Hunt”
by Margaret Ronald:This full-length urban
fantasy novel featuresEvie Scelan, aka “Hound,”who has the ability to trackeverything from missingitems to missing persons.In this series debut, Eviereceives a phone call fromwhat she thought was adead man. Her need tofind out what happened tohim pulls her into the mys-tical community of Boston,where forces are wakingthat could change theworld. The hunt will shat-ter the boundaries she hasalways placed upon hergift and expose truths shehas never known. Follow itup with “Wild Hunt” and“Soul Hunt.”

EAST LANSING, MI | HOW MANY
FRIENDS HAVE TOLD YOU THEY LOVE
THEIR HEARING AIDS? Now how manyhave said their hearing aids makesome sounds too loud, don’t workwell in noise, or they can’t tell if theyare really helping them hear at all?Audiologists and dispensers try tomake hearing aids function the bestthey can to give the patient a goodoutcome. But there were always a lotof diWculties surrounding comfortand understanding of speech.
Let’s say you havea small child,an average sizedwoman, and a verylarge man, all withthe same hearingloss. All hearingaids would beprogrammed the
same way, according to the hearingaid manufacturers software. But theear canals themselves must Zgureinto the process, as well. Withoutdiving into too much physics, earcanal size and shape for the childwould be quite small. \e womanwould be close to the average sizeear canals and the man’s ear canalswould be quite large and long. \echild would receive too much powerfrom the hearing aids, the woman’sZtting would be close, and the man’shearing aids would seem very quiet.All hearing aid manufacturers basetheir science o[ the average ear. Butno one has the average ear.Live speech mapping is the latestinnovative approach to hearing aidZtting which uses natural speech toshow how e[ective digital hearing
aids are in helping you to hearspeech. With digital speech mapping,an actual speech signal, not tones orhissing sounds, is used to test thehearing aids while inserted in thepatient’s ears.\is allows for the shapeand size of the patient’s ear canals to beincluded in the Ztting process, as wellas using the most important signal wehear, speech. For hearing aid Zttingsto be successful, speech must beappropriately ampliZed with respectto loudness, clarity, and comfort.Soft speech should be perceived assoft, moderate speech sounds shouldbe perceived as moderate, and loudspeech sounds should not reach thepatient’s discomfort level.Speech mapping helps to provide
a clear “visual” sense of the hearingloss, and the beneZts or perhaps thelimitations that your current hearingaids o[er in relation to actual speech.While wearing hearing aids, a tinyprobe microphone is inserted intothe ear canal while the hearing aidsare running, then a stimulus (voices/music) is used to measure the outputand shows if the hearing aids areamplifying sounds appropriately. \eLive Speech Map is displayed on amonitor through easily-understoodgraphics so that you can actuallysee sounds that are missing and bepresented with a clear visual senseof hearing loss and aided beneZtsrelating to actual speech. It allowsyou to see graphically just how theaid is performing in a live, real worldenvironment.Once we see what sounds you’re
missing, we’ll be able to tune yourpersonal hearing aids until it restoresthe missing speech patterns andtones. So, not only will you hear thedi[erence a hearing aid makes withyour speech, you’ll be able to see thesounds being restored visually aswell. A successful hearing aid Zttingshould be a dynamic, patient-centered
process. To achieve optimum success,the dispensing professional musttailor the process to meet the needs,abilities, and desires of the patient.If you are wondering if your hearingaids, or those of your loved ones, aremeeting their current needs, pleasecall Accuquest Hearing Center at
877-756-6875. Request a no chargeconsultation using the Auricle DigitalSpeech Mapping System. \is systemhas set the acknowledged industrystandard for hearing instrumentZtting equipment. \is can lead toa better insight into exactly howhearing aids are performing.

between 20 and 40 on asummer weekend.
One of them is ConnieZheng, a recent MSU gradwho was getting a bike July9 for her son Andy, 13, andcouldn’t say enough goodthings about Egan.
“Fixing bikes is secondnature to Mike and he’s verypatient,” said Zheng, whorides a Share-a-Bike bicy-cle herself. “This (program)really saved our lives.”
Egan doesn’t listen veryhard to the accolades; he’stoo busy fixing the next bikeon his battered white bikestand set up next to hisvan.
Other volunteers some-times come over to see if hehas a tool they can borrow -and usually he does.
“I’ve always been a fledg-ling mechanic and involvedin several bike clubs aroundtown,” said Egan, whoworks for Hasselbring-
Clark.He’s a good listener, too,
paying attention to what a“customer” needs and look-ing through the program’sinventory to find it.
On July 9, for instance,Egan took Liz Owczarzak,who has some back issues,through the bikes hangingin one of the red trailersuntil they found the rightone, which he then adjustedto make sure it fit hercomfortably.
A spontaneous warmhandshake was her thankyou to Egan.
“This bike will be greatfor riding downtown,” saidOwczarzak, an LCC studentin the geographicalinformation systemprogram. “It will also behelpful in getting to doctors’appointments.”
East Lansing residentand GM retiree RonaldFowler was another volun-teer who worked steadily athis own bike stand through-out the morning. So wereRon Zeeb, Dave Mead andKyle Freund, all from Lan-sing.
Doug Taylor from Holt,who used to be the pres-ident of UAW local 602,and his grandson JonathanOlson, showed up with atrailer full of donated bikes.With lots of willing hands,they were unloaded in a fewminutes.
Dick Janson, who livesin Perry and worked as acustom software designerfor over 20 years, kept thepaperwork flowing.
Bikes come from every-where: East Lansing’s Proj-ect Pride recycling day,
the police department, theSt. Vincent DePaul storein Lansing, landlords whoinherit student bikes whentheir tenants graduate andmany, many homeowners.
“People know we’rehere,” Egan said.
The program workssimply and easily, just likea well-oiled bike shiftssmoothly from gear togear.
Each person who wantsa bike must bring a letterfrom a human servicesagency, a religious organi-zation or an employer thatvouches for their need.
It’s a first-come, firstserved system, with each“customer” assigned avolunteer mechanic.
Some are new to theUnited States and uncom-fortable with English, butsomehow they, too, find thebikes they need and rideaway smiling.
Some are verypersistent. Cliff Johnson,66, for instance, rode offon a very nice Schwinn onJuly 9. His previous Share-a-Bike bicycle had been
stolen.All bikes are licensed
with the East Lansing PoliceDepartment and theirowners offered a brand-new helmet.
On July 9, 7-year-oldZach Rinehart almost gota red bike in his size that
needed quite a bit of work.Searching through the rowsof bikes, though, he cameupon a shiny silver numberthat seemed made for him.
He got a cool bluehelmet, too, and hopefully asafety lesson for the rest ofhis bike-riding days.
WheelsContinued from Page 8
East Lansing resident Ronald Fowler, a retiree from theGrand River GM plant, spends many summer Saturdaymornings fixing up bikes for the Share-a-Ride programthat provides much needed transportation throughout theLansing area.
