Hunger isn’t always obvious.
It can show up as the quiet gnaw in a child’s stomach before school, or in the concern of a parent while sitting at the kitchen table making the decision between paying for groceries or rent, or the suffering of anyone lying in bed wishing dinner was able to stave off the ache of not enough.

Eagle Access Hopes Revived; Sportsmen Need to Step Up
- Details
By Louie Stout
The former dock property is back in play as a potential Michigan DNR access development near Eagle and Juno lakes.
Three weeks ago, Ontwa Township’s Board of Zoning Appeals rejected state plans to convert the 9 acres into a public access area. The plans called for boat launches onto Eagle Lake and the Juno Chain, a kids’ fishing pond, restrooms and a pavilion.
The DNR nixed the project, saying it couldn’t continue without township support.
Apparently that support has been revived, thanks to interested citizens who appealed to the township and the DNR to revamp its original layout to include playground equipment. One of the zoning board’s reasons for voting against the initial plan was because it didn’t include playground equipment.
Indiana Deer Harvest Could be Down Slightly
- Details

Will Hoosiers set another deer harvest record this season?
Probably not, says Indiana deer biologist Chad Stewart.
That’s not to say he doesn’t expect a good hunting season, but the state is due for a dip.
Last year, Hoosiers harvested 136,248 deer, breaking the harvest record for the fourth time in the last five seasons.
“It wouldn’t surprise me if it was down a little this year,” Stewart said in a press release. “But I don’t expect the harvest numbers to fall off a cliff. There will still be plenty of deer out there.”
