Ears for Deers

It took me a couple of months of planning and organization after learning of the new law approving the feeding of wildlife on your own property (see related Ludington Torch article on the law's origin and implementation), but I've finally established a mechanism to feed the local deer population some good old Eastern Mason County corn.  …See More

Ludington on the Eve of Destruction

According to very credible sources, JT Szoboszlay, a graduate of Ludington High School in 2025, left Stearns Park just before midnight on December 23, 2025, in no condition to drive.  He was not old enough to drink alcoholic beverages, but he did that night and unwisely got behind the wheel and drove towards his home, up North Lakeshore Avenue.  On his way he drove onto the other side of the avenue, crashing into multiple streetside objects, including a telephone pole. driving with enough speed…See More

The Ludington Torch went to the beach yesterday, September 7, 2026, Labor Day, and we saw a lot of flagrant violations of the law, which weren't violations of the law earlier this year.  Our city…Continue

    Migration Update

    The elves of the Ludington Torch were hopeful that we could move from our current Ning 2.0 network to the Ning 3.0 network shortly after our five year anniversary, but we have got news from them back that they are not currently doing any new migrations to the higher platform at this time.  We surmise that there has been problems with the migrations of other Ning sites, because some things do not transfer very well or at all, including videos and group modules. 

    As they continue to…

    Downloading Videos

    Want to download videos for a thread or just to add to our Videos library, but are having a hard time figuring it out?  It's not hard once you know how to do it.  First you will need the Video's "Embed" code; on a typical video site like Youtube they will have a "share" button you need to click, you will then see an "Embed" button you need to click.  You will see the code all in blue, you need to "copy" (as in copy and paste) this code by going to your copy command.

    Now go to the…
