There are many ways to prevent them from chewing and dog gets it right from the start. They jumping and helping them through get a reward, praise and petting,” she said. “Dogs love rewards.

When they get to the teething stage it’s important to faces, Voiles said.

She suggests teachhelp puppies sooth their pain.

Owners can purchase suitable toys ing dogs how to sit and then to freeze that are safe like a Kong toy. The classic Kong looks like three balls pushed together and comes in a variety of sizes. They are made of rubber, are hollow in the middle and treats can be pushed in or frozen for their enjoyment.

“You can do a lot with those. You get the best benefit of the toy if you put food in them. It’s like a project for them,” Voiles said, adding different kinds of foods to put in a Kong include yogurt, peanut butter and mashed potatoes. Starting out with small amounts of food is better so the dog can get it out easier and helps them learn how to get food out of trickier toys.

Another good example of a chew toy is a Nylabone. As puppies grow into adulthood some will continue the chewing habit on items that they aren’t supposed to and owners need to discourage this behavior.

“As dogs age they continue to chew. It’s a way to channel their emotions. It’s a way to help them calm themselves down. It’s a soothing, repetitive behavior,” Voiles said.

reward them. Owners should cross their arms over their chests, look away and upward and not to talk to their pets. By doing this it doesn’t reinforce the negative behavior of jumping.

For dogs that have had this behavior for a long time, Voiles suggests teaching them how to sit as well as standing on their leash so they can’t successfully jump. The owner shouldn’t have such a tight hold

on the leash where it’s going to choke their dog and they shouldn’t have such a lose hold where the dog will jump.

The resource sheet that would be helpful to owners whose dogs jump is “Teach polite behavior.”

Another behavior seen in dogs is anxiety but it’s such a broad category, Voiles said. Types of anxiety include being separated from their owner, noise phobia (fireworks or storms) and stranger danger (having had a bad experience with humans).

Others things that might help dogs with anxiety include supplements and veterinary prescribed medicine like Xanax.

These are medications that given at the right dosage can help dogs.

Dosages for pets are completely different than in humans.

Having a new pet in the home is a wonderful time for the entire family but the first few days are an adjustment for the dog. The pet needs to figure out when it gets fed, when it goes out and when their owners come and go.

The position has been vacant since Natalie Feggestad left in July to take a finance position with the University of Wisconsin's School of Human Ecology.

City officials said that 20 applications were received for the opening and telephone and inperson interviews were conducted by City Administrator, who narrowed the list to two.

Council OK’s budget amendment

BY CHRIS MERTES Managing Editor

uring a meeting that lasted nine minutes for its public portion, the Sun Prairie City Council on Sept. 3 gave final approval to a budget amendment for a roughly $12,000 fence for Stoneridge Estates Park.

The park, located off Stonehaven Drive on the city’s north side, has experienced problems with geese and other waterfowl from the adjacent pond.

City parks staff have tried coyote cutouts and other efforts to control the waterfowl migration on to park lands without success, and recommended construction of the fence as a way to keep the fowl feces from filling the fields in the park, such as the soccer field.

US DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE CROP REPORT

State crops paying the price for late summer drought

BY JAKE KURTZ Reporter, The Star After one of the wettest spring seasons on record, rain showers have become a rare occurrence over the last two months, drought is creeping across the state, and crops are paying the price.

The University of Nebraska's U.S. Drought Monitor on Thursday declared all or portions of 33 Wisconsin counties — including Dane — as being in moderate or severe drought.

That's a dramatic change from the July 30 Drought Monitor report in which all of the state was categorized as being in normal conditions.

“It has been quite rapid,” Asst. State Climatologist Ed Hopkins said of the slide into drought. “You have some people calling it a ‘flash drought’ because of how we dove right into it in a very short time span.”

Wisconsin's driest area, the Sept. 3 report states, is the eastcentral cluster of Eau Claire, Dunn, Buffalo and Pepin counties, all rated with severe drought.

The last sizable rain amount to fall on the area was 1.23 inches recorded by the USDA's Madison field office. No rain was tracked last week in Madison, and just one of USDA's five offices received precipitation (0.68 inches at Green Bay).

Some local relief could be on the way, however, as the 10-day forecast beginning Friday includes the possibility of rain on Saturday and the middle of next week, with temperatures

Chris

in the mid-80s.

Madison is still 12.79 inches above normal, despite two months of dry weather, with a year-to-date total of 36.47 inches.

“The good snow we had last winter and then one of the wettest Junes we have seen really made a difference,” Hopkins said. “That water was money in the bank and what has been saving us for much of the summer. Without that, things would be a lot worse today and really have put a crimp on crops.”

Wisconsin is hardly alone when it comes to parched earth. The Drought Monitor showed that eight Iowa stations set new records in August for

dryness. “In the eastern Dakotas, and from northwestern Minnesota into southwestern Wisconsin, only 5-25% of the normal August rain fell,” the report notes.

Average temperatures last week, according to the USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), were nine to 14 degrees above normal statewide. Hopkins noted that recent temperatures are a stark difference from April, May and June, which were all below normal.

That latest heat and lack of precipitation, though, has begun to take a toll on area

crops.

Heidi Johnson, a field specialist with UW Extension of Dane County, said corn is drying out at alarming rates and talk of chopping for silage has surfaced. But for all of that, she said most farmers are still sitting prettier today compared to the same period a year go amidst historic drought.

“We're not in pure crisis mode yet,” Johnson said. “The last rain we had helped, but there just hasn't been enough.”

According to NASS in its Sept. 3 report, multiple crop reporters statewide documented corn and soybeans fields

that are “badly stressed,” and that pastures have become “inadequate for grazing.”

“Some farmers were chopping silage early where corn has dripped up, was unable to pollinate, or where feed supplies were running low,” NASS said.

UW associate professor and soybean specialist Shawn Conley this week detailed on his blog, The Soy Report, the yield expectations and hourly cost for farmers who decide to chop struggling soybeans as forage.

Conley said late-planted, drought-stricken soybeans will amass roughly “one to two tons of dry matter per acre.”

“I think the soybeans, they're just not going to keep going,” Johnson said. “Unless we get serious rain, they're going to dry down, pods won't fill, and you will see a major reduction in yields or people chopping them for silage.”

Average Wisconsin soybean conditions declined overall last week, with 31 percent rated fair, 35 percent good, and 11 percent excellent. Twentythree percent was tabbed as poor or worse.

Only 7 percent of soybeans

leaves statewide had turned on average as of Sept. 1, well behind last year's mark of 37 percent and the five-year average of 17 percent.

NASS reported that corn silage was 2 percent harvested last week, down from 16 percent last year. Overall corn conditions were 65 percent fair to good, 11 percent excellent, and 24 percent poor or very poor.

“It really is all about location,” Hopkins said of corn crops. “A few weeks ago I was up in Juneau County and some of the corn looked as bad as it did last summer. But here in Dane County, last weekend around Stoughton there were fields that look great. That all shows you how quick it can change.”

Pasture took the biggest drop in quality last week, with 56 percent rated poor or worse, and just 25 percent as fair.

Third-cutting alfalfa, NASS said, was 78 percent harvested and fourth cutting at 10 percent. Tonnage and quality is reportedly down because of the dry weather.

Early apples being picked around the state are also said to be small in size because of the weather.

Safe Routes to School contract SPMC offers club, seeks hoops approved by alders

BY JAKE KURTZ Reporter, The Star

With a $376,000 grant for new sidewalks as part of the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program in its pocket, the Sun Prairie Public Works Committee this week approved a contract with a local firm to begin locking up easements and other project loose ends.

The money has been earmarked for installation of new paths on Walmar Drive, MacArthur Street, and North Street. City Engineer Daryl Severson said Tuesday that city staff originally planned to administer the project, but it has become apparent it will

take “expertise we really don't have.”

Specifically, Severson noted that the acquisition of 44 easements needed to make the project go would be “more time consuming that what we originally hoped.” As a result, he pitched committee members to approve a $43,000 contract with MSA Professional Services of Madison.

Of the contract total, Severson said approximately $6,500 would be eligible for reimbursement as part of the SRTS grant. The easement acquisitions, however, are not covered as such, and could reach $10,000 or more, depending on negotiations with prop-

erty owners in the affected neighborhoods.

In return for the upfront investment by the city to get the projects going, Severson noted that it stands to received $300,000 in construction improvements, which he called “a good investment of city dollars.”

“If we're getting grant money for it, it seems like a good investment to address these deficiencies,” Alderman Al Hoffmann agreed.

The easements, however, have the potential to be a murky situation. As mentioned, all 44 property owners are required to approve the projects, meaning one person can hold up all progress. And no individual can be compensated at a higher level than others in the pool.

A representatives with MSA told the committee Tuesday that the bulk of the outfit's time dedicated for easements would likely be spent on one or two people, as experienced in similar situations.

“Eventually you get it all approved, but it's going to take some time,” Severson noted.

Other action • Parking restriction removal backed. Public Works Committee members on Tuesday also signed-off on the

removal of existing parking restrictions at three locations.

As is stands today, parking is limited to no more than two hours between 7:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. on school days on both sides of Flint Street.

The west side of South Street between West Main Street and Linnerud Drive is restricted during the same hours on school days, along with both sides of Union Street between W. Main and Windsor Street.

City Public Works Director Larry Herman said the ordinances have become obsolete since the high school location has changed and offered support for the moves.

One resident appeared before the committee about the topic and spoke in favor of lifting the restrictions.

• Little Libraries addressed. Sun Prairie residents are welcome to place little free libraries boxes on their own property, but committee members were not keen on them residing on city property.

The decision to limit the locations of the book vessels popular in Madison and other midwest community was made by the committee after receiving a request to install one near the bike path entrance on Gas See PUBLIC WORKS, page 6A

Floor area ratio, rezoning among Sun Prairie Plan Commission, JEZ agenda items The Sun Prairie Plan Commission will consider amending the city's floor area ratio requirements and rezoning a West Main Street property as part of its Sept. 10 agenda.

City Planning Director Scott Kugler said a public hearing will be held on a request by Niki and Joe Konkel.

The commission will hold the hearing to rezone the property located at 1109 W. Main Street from Suburban Residential (SR-4) to Urban Commercial (UC).

Kugler said although this property has housed a number of commercial businesses over the past several decades, it is not zoned for commercial use.

The commission action, if

given final approval by the Sun Prairie City Council, would address this situation.

Other commission agenda items include: • A public meeting will be held on a request by Steven D. Pederson. The request seeks approval of an extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) Certified Survey Map to create a fiveacre lot on the east side of Martinson Road near the intersection of Vinburn and Martinson Roads in the Town of Windsor.

• A public meeting will be held on a city-initiated amendment of the Zoning Ordinance text to amend the Floor Area Ratio (FAR) requirements for properties located in the Main Street Overlay (MSO) and the

Urban Commercial (UC) zoning districts.

The meeting will be held in the Second Floor Council Chambers of the Sun Prairie Municipal Building, 300 E. Main Street, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 10.

Kugler said a Joint Extraterritorial Zoning (JEZ) Committee meeting has also been called for Tuesday, Sept.

10, 2013 at 6 p.m. in the Sun Prairie Municipal Building.

The following items are scheduled to be discussed during the committee meeting: • A Zoning Map Amendment to rezone five acres of property along the east side of Martinson Road from the Agricultural (AG-35ac) District to the Countryside

Art In The Square

Residential (CR-5ac) District.

This application is related to the Pederson CSM item that is on the 7 pm Plan Commission agenda, Kugler said.

• A Zoning Map Amendment to rezone a proposed a 1.56 acre lot containing an existing residential use located at 3539 Windsor Road from Agriculture 35-acre to Estate Residential and rezone the remaining 14.38 acres from Agriculture 35-acre to Countryside Residential 5-acre, according to Kugler.

YOUR VIEW: LETTERS TO THE EDITOR New swim team needs your help A new swim team has been started in Sun Prairie. A group of parents interested in expanding the swimming options for Sun Prairie kids met in August and started “Sun Prairie Swim, Inc.” This swim team will give kids the ability to swim for a team at any point in the calendar year.

We, the board of directors of Sun Prairie Swim are excited to introduce our team to the Sun Prairie community.

We adopted the following as our mission statement: Sun Prairie Swim Inc. is a community-based, not-for-profit competitive swim team which provides swimmers of varying abil-

ities, between the ages 6-18, the opportunity to excel in the sport of swimming.

Sun Prairie Swim is committed to help each swimmer realize his or her potential as a competitor and individual, balanced by a solid sense of sportsmanship.

We believe that success is the result of a solid foundation of the fundamentals of proper stroke technique and balanced workouts. We value our members and strive to promote a healthy and fun environment for our athletes, coaches, and families.

The Sun Prairie Piranhas is a wonderful summer opportunity for kids to swim but now it’s time to make sure that opportunity continues the rest of the year.

We hope the Sun Prairie community will support our efforts. We have a facebook page titled Sun Prairie Swim Inc. where you will find a link to a petition on change.org.

This petition asks that a Sun Prairie based swim team receive priority for the High School pool ahead of another team that is from a different city or school district.

The new team also needs a name. We are asking the community to give us their suggestions on what the new team is called.

Please logon to our facebook page and make a suggestion or email us at sunprairieswim@gmail.com. We are excited about our new team and will continue to keep the community updated on

We all think fondly about football season because there is a pleasant memory usually con-

nected with it -- whether it was the high school homecoming game or attending the game of a favorite college team.

One of my fondest football memories actually involved watching a Packers preseason game against the New York Giants at Lambeau Field. It was a low scoring affair, but the seats were great and I lost a lot of weight in sweat pouring off me as I sat in those steel bleachers in the searing 80-plus degree heat.

Probably the most memorable thing about that game, though, was watching The Minister of

Defense, Reggie White, take apart the opposing offensive line.

He made it look like child’s play -- and there are few in the game who could do it like he did.

It’s a tough legacy to live up to, but I’m confident the Packers will live up to it (their 2013 preseason notwithstanding).

We’re all ready for Aaron Rodgers and Company to beat the 49ers this Sunday.

Chiefs and Packers and Papers -- oh my! riday morning was rather special for me. It is probably the only time this year that I will be able to walk into the office and loudly proclaim, “How about those Chiefs!”

Of course 10 people reminded me this was preseason. OK, I will give you that but you have to admit the Chiefs’ bench looked better than the Packers bench.

Well, enough of that football rah, rah.

The Tuesday paper will have more of the traditional feel to it while the Friday paper will have more of arts, entertainment, school news, sports previews and tourist information. We still need to work on some kinks but that is to be expected.

We are looking for story ideas and need for our clubs and organizations to send us updates on their projects and meetings.

On another note the news was

that the roundabout controversy has hit a high. I think that older drivers become confused and that gives the potential for more acciBARB TRIMBLE dents. I will have to check with Chief Anhalt if that is indeed a problem.

Last Friday’s paper also had the debut of the Health Sense magazine. Feedback from the public so far has been very posi-

POLICE BEAT Sun Prairie police are seeking a male suspect in connection with a Sept. 3 incident in the 1200 block of Vandenburg Street.

According to SPPD Lt. Brian Teasdale, officers responded to the residence just after 2:06 p.m. when the department received a 911 call which was disconnected when police attempted to call the residence back.

Teasdale said the male suspect ran from the house when officers arrived. Officers investigated found that the female victim had been punched in the face several times, according to Teasdale.

Officers searched the area

and were unable to locate the male suspect, who will be sought in connection with tentative charges associated with the incident, Teasdale said.

• Firing range open to the public. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources and Dane County Sheriff’s Office will be allowing public to have weekend access this fall to the county Law Enforcement Training Center Range.

The range is located at 5184 Hwy. 19 near Waunakee with a $10 fee required to use the facility.

Funding for this project comes from shooters and hunters through the Pittman-

Robertson (PR) Wildlife Restoration grant program.

The grant revenues are taxes paid by shooters and hunters on ammunition and firearms equipment.

The Dane County Law Enforcement Training Center is equipped with five firearm shooting ranges. Each of the five ranges provides a different type of shooting environment.

Its primary function is to provide Law Enforcement Officers with realistic and functional training.

Under the terms of the agreement, the range will be open the following dates and times: •Saturdays and Sundays:

Sept. 7 through Nov. 3, 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. During this period, at least two ranges will be open to the public to use for shooting and target practice.

Shooters will not be limited in the time they spend on the range unless there are no open firing positions and others are waiting. The ranges will be closed to the public on Oct. 6th for a law enforcement training exercise.

•Daily: Nov. 9-22, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.: A 100-yard rifle range will be open to the public for sighting in firearms in preparation for the gun deer-hunting season (during these dates rim fire .22 shooting will not be permitted). Sheriff’s Office staff

• Door-to-door case prompts review of sales requirements. Recent complaints of individuals selling Kirby vacuum cleaners doorto-door have prompted police to review requirements associated with door-to-door sellers.

City of Sun Prairie ordinances require the following: • Anybody who comes to your door selling something must have a permit, unless they represent a non-profit organization.

• They MUST show you their permit if you ask for one.

• They must leave IMMEDIATELY if you ask them to, regardless of who they represent (non-profit or otherwise).

• If residents have any problems with solicitors, they should call the Sun Prairie Police Department at 837-7336.

The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection urges people to question salespeople prior to buying into their pitch.

Wisconsin law requires door-

to-door solicitors to provide certain information BEFORE making a sales pitch, including: Their name; the company or organization they are representing; the products or services they are offering; and the purpose of their visit.

“People should also ask to see the seller’s permit – to do business in their respective municipality,” said Sandy Chalmers, Administrator of the Division of Trade and Consumer Protection. “If the seller doesn’t have one, or fails to provide the information required by law, ask the salesperson to leave and notify local police of the suspicious behavior. This may prevent friends and neighbors from being victimized.”

“We also want people to be careful who they let into their homes,” Chalmers added.

“Personal safety should always be considered when dealing with strangers.”

The Bureau of Consumer Protection reminds people to be wary of sales pitches that require an on-the-spot decision. Before buying anything, it is always a good idea to ask for written information about the product or service and do some comparison shopping.

Legitimate companies seldom use high-pressure sale tactics.

When making a door-todoor sales purchase, thoroughly review written agreements.

Be careful that what was said by a salesperson is actually included in the contract. Be on the lookout for any blank spaces on the paperwork, where additional terms could See POLICE BEAT, page 16A

NEWS BRIEFS

State dairy exports up 23 percent Wisconsin dairy export value increased 23 percent in the first half of 2013 compared to total over the same period the year prior.

The $171 million value of dairy-related products placed the state fourth nationwide — its highest agricultural export, ahead of raw foreskins, food ingredients, ethanol, and cereal grains.

“Our agriculture industry continues to be a strong cornerstone of our state’s econo-

my, and the overall increase of Wisconsin exports is good for our economy and the hardworking employees who help produce great products,” Gov. Scott Walker said in a statement this week.

Canada, China and Mexico were the primary export destinations over the six-month period.

Overall, Wisconsin has exported $1.6 billion worth of agricultural products to 132 countries this year — a 10 per-

cent increase over 2012. The state ranks 13th for overall agricultural exports in the U.S., up from 14th for same period last year.

Walker noted that Wisconsin is “quickly growing beyond being America’s Dairy Land.”

In July, Wisconsin farmers received an average price of $19.10 per hundredweight for their milk, up $1.30 from the same month last year, according to the USDA’s National

Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS).

The projected domestic milk price for August, NASS reported, is $19.30 cwt. Outside of Missouri and Florida, NASS said alls major milk producing states nationally are predicting a higher price for August.

Michigan expects a 50 cent increase to $20.40 cwt., while Idaho is expected to jump 40 cents to $18.50.

WISCONSIN CENTER FOR INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM

While Wisconsin abortions declined, more women used surgical method Wisconsin Right to Life lauds new restrictions but Planned Parenthood expresses concern

BY RORY LINNANE Wisconsin Center for Investigative Journalism

Despite an overall decline in abortions by Wisconsin women in 2012, the number of surgical abortions rose by 8 percent last year — the first increase since the state started tracking abortion methods in 1998, records show.

Planned Parenthood officials say the rise in surgical abortions is a result of legal concerns over a state law that prompted them to stop providing medication-induced abortions for most of last year.

The medication option, which is less invasive and offers more privacy, has been increasingly chosen by women in the first nine weeks of pregnancy since it was approved for general use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2000.

“It’s an option that’s been available for women for the last decade in Wisconsin, and to have the main provider not be able to provide it anymore, it took that option away for them,” said Nicole Safar, public policy director for Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin.

“The government has made a choice for them and taken away a good, valid, safe health care option for no other reason but a political reason.”

Wisconsin Right to Life credits the new law with helping to drive down the number of abortions by 4.7 percent statewide in 2012.

“Whenever babies aren’t being destroyed, whether through chemical or surgical abortions, we think that’s great,” said Susan Armacost, legislative director for Wisconsin Right to Life.

“We’re looking at the numbers across the board. There were 322 fewer abortions in 2012, so 322 babies whose lives were spared.”

Act 217 was billed as a way to prevent doctors from prescribing abortion medication by webcam, as has happened in other states.

But Planned Parenthood officials say they had no plans to use teleconferencing in medication abortions. And they allege the law’s requirements are too vague for doctors, who face the threat of criminal and civil penalties if they do not comply.

NOW BUYING CARS!

RORY LINNANE/WISCONSIN CENTER FOR INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM Protesters gather Aug. 28 outside the Planned Parenthood clinic in Milwaukee that provides abortions. The organization is suing the state to clarify a new law that puts

For example, the law requires a doctor to be physically present when abortion medication is given, but does not specify whether the doctor has to be with the patient when she takes the second pill, usually done in her own home.

Because Wisconsin already has a 24-hour waiting period — and the two abortion pills must be given 24 hours apart — the law could mean women would be forced to make three trips to a clinic to obtain an abortion.

In June, Wisconsin Planned Parenthood clinics resumed offering medication abortions after a Dane County judge temporarily blocked the provision requiring that a doctor be present when the medications are given.

The ruling came in a lawsuit filed by Planned Parenthood seeking clarification of the law.

That case remains open, and other parts of the law are still in effect.

Under the new law, patients are required to see the same doctor for a counseling session on the first day and receive the abortion medication on the second day.

Safar said this requirement has caused scheduling delays, but Planned Parenthood is not challenging this provision.

The only other abortion provider in Wisconsin, Affiliated Medical Services, halted nonsurgical abortions at its clinic in Milwaukee when the

law took effect in April 2012, but resumed a month later after a legal review.

Women in Wisconsin and across the country have increasingly chosen the medication option for abortions since the pills were approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2000. In 2011, 45 percent of women eligible for medication abortions — generally those nine weeks pregnant or less — at Planned Parenthood clinics in Wisconsin chose that option,

the organization said.

Surgical abortions by Wisconsin women rose to 5,734 in 2012, up from 5,299 the previous year, according to data released in August by the state Department of Health Services.

Last year, 6,692 Wisconsin

women had abortions in the state. This was a drop of 327, or 4.7 percent.

Total abortions performed in Wisconsin, including among women from out of state, dropped by 322, or 4.4 percent.

Providers say the number of

abortions has been on a downward trend for years because of a decline in unintended pregnancy, attributable to improving sex education and access to birth control. Safar said the new restrictions have just created roadblocks that delay access to a legal medical procedure.

“We know how to reduce the number of abortions, and that’s invest in birth control and sex ed,” Safar said. “If that’s really your goal, let’s get real and get serious about reducing the number of abortions instead of these hostile and hateful laws that target women who’ve already made their decisions.”

DOWNTOWN ART FEST

SUN PRAIRIE EXCHANGE CLUB

Painting the town

Golden Deeds award accepting nominations

BY ALYSSA SKIBA

Award recognizes good citizenship

Lifestyle Editor

rtists of various media will take to downtown Sun Prairie this Saturday to show off their talents at Downtown Art Fest.

The free event will be held at Cannery Square from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. In previous years, the 100 and 200 blocks of Main Street were closed down for the event.

Nearly 30 artists will feature and sell their works at the festival, which will also include musical acts and four food vendors. Market Street Diner, Glass Nickel Pizza and Atlantis Taverna will serve up their specialties while another vendor sells kettle corn.

The event is sponsored by the Business Improvement District (BID) board and was coordinated by BID board member Dan Callies.

Festival attendees can peruse several tents filled with the art of photographers, painters, woodworkers, glass artists, and a welder. The event will also showcase the work of a 3D photographer, jewelers, a stone engraver, and an artist who turns old piano parts into art.

Ample empty sidewalk space along with sidewalk chalk will be available for children to show off their artistic talents as well.

For the BID, Downtown Art Fest is a way of paying homage to American artist Georgia O’Keeffe, who was born near Sun Prairie.

“We as the BID think that people need to be reminded periodically that Sun Prairie is the home of a famous artist and we think that it’s kind of in her memory that we started doing this a long time ago,” Callies said.

“Most of these artists are fairly local so it’s a nice way to get people downtown.”

THE KITCHEN DIVA

The lunch bunch: Keeping meals enjoyable

BY ANGELA SHELF MEDEARIS The Kitchen Diva

Students are heading back to school, and you probably went to great lengths to ensure your child has the right equipment -- pencils, pens, notebooks, clothing -- to make it through the day. Proper nutrition also is a key ingredient for back-to-school success because it fuels brain cells and gives your child the energy and nutrients he or she needs for optimal learning.

Packing your child's lunch lets you know exactly what he or she is eating.

Follow these tips, and not only will you save money, but you will pack a nutritious lunch that your child will enjoy: • A healthy lunch should contain foods from each of the five food groups: carbohydrates, protein, dairy, fruits and vegetables. Choose wholegrain products like bread, tortillas, pita bread, bagels or whole-grain crackers. These are more nutritious, have more fiber, vitamins and minerals, and keep blood sugar steady for optimal learning.

• Select protein foods wisely. Use lean meat like chicken or turkey breast, hard-boiled eggs, tuna packed in water, beans or peanut butter.

Protein in every meal helps keep blood sugar steady.

• Buy fruits and vegetables that are in season

and serve them creatively. Examples include baby carrots with yogurt dip, or other cut vegetables with low-fat dip or hummus.

• Choose low-fat or fat-free dairy products like yogurt, milk and cheese. These are great calcium and protein sources.

• For side items, re-think that bag of chips.

Instead, choose carrots sticks, celery sticks with peanut butter and raisins, apple slices with peanut butter, fruit salad, whole fruit, raisins or

pretzels.

• For dessert, think beyond the cookie. Try whole-grain graham crackers, ginger snaps, raisins, unsweetened applesauce, homemade muffins or fresh fruit.

• Choose a beverage that hydrates, like water, or choose low-fat or fat-free milk for additional protein, calcium and vitamin D. Avoid drinks with calories and no nutrients.

• Choose an insulated bag and freezer packs

to keep food at a safe temperature. Buy containers to fit your lunchbox needs. Invest washable and reusable containers in a variety of sizes.

Avoid using plastic sandwich baggies.

• Buy in bulk. Avoid single-serve packaging.

You save money when you buy in bulk and pack it yourself into single servings. Buy a large container of yogurt or pudding and use 4-ounce containers to pack your own. Buy a block of cheese and cut it into cubes or shred it. Buy crackers in boxes, rather than individual packages.

• Make your own sandwich fillings. Look beyond lunch meat. Slice your own meat or grill chicken breast and cut it into strips or cubes.

Avoid prepackaged lunches, which are costly.

• Pack leftovers for lunch. Use meats, veggies and fruits in sandwiches and salads. Homemade soup is always a good option.

• Buy what's on sale and use coupons. Get whatever is on sale each week and work it into a menu. Use fruits and vegetables that are in season.

• Buy store brand and compare unit prices.

Look high and low -- bargains are usually on the top or bottom shelves, not at eye level.

• Plan ahead and have a list when you go to the store. The more time you spend in a store, the more money you spend.

TASTING STATIONS

SweetRevolutionsMadison.com Get started at

You’ve got what it takes.

• Add some fun touches to the meal. The traditional peanut butter and jelly sandwich can become pretty boring. Get a couple of cookie cutters and have kids cut the sandwich into different shapes. Include the kids in the preparation process and give them choices. Take them along when grocery shopping. Let them pick one new fruit or vegetable each week that they'd like to try. Let them help pack their lunch.

• Think beyond bread when making sandwiches. A good alternative is a wholewheat pita pocket with hummus, shredded vegetables and grilled chicken strips.

• Vary the preparation.

Try grilled or baked, chopped or grated, plain or with a dip.

• Pack a variety of options to keep a child's interest.

Avoid packing the same lunch every day -- this prevents kids from getting bored.

• Practice good nutrition yourself. Children learn by association -- you need to be a role model. Talk with them the benefits of healthy eating.

Don't get discouraged if your child rejects a food on first taste. It can take 15 to 20 tries before a child gets used to a new food.

• A nutritious lunch does not have to be boring or cost you a fortune. Making small changes can save you money.

Try one or two tips each week, and soon you should see some relief in your grocery bills. Remember that well-nourished children have a greater chance of success at school because they have the fuel and the energy they need to play and learn.

DANE COUNTY

UW Health, VA to team up to improve vets’ health

Pharmacia pays $29 million

The UW Health integrativemedicine program will work with the Veterans Health Administration, the largest medical system in the country, on a national push to improve how doctors work with patients who are veterans.

The UW program will receive $1.9 million from the VA to participate in a project called Sustainable Engaged Relationships for Veterans Integrative Clinical Education (SERVICE) to work with clinicians in the VA on how to change the way they practice medicine from a focus on disease to a focus on the whole health of the veteran.

The William S. Middleton Veterans Hospital will be one of four pilot sites in the U.S. where curriculum will be taught.

Eventually, 20 more VA sites with a total of 1,000 clinicians will take part in the program, which will run through September 2014.

“The Veterans Health Administration’s number one goal is to provide veterans with personalized, proactive, patient-centered healthcare,” said Dr. Alan Bridges, chief of staff of the VA hospital and professor of medicine at the University of Wisconsin School

of Medicine and Public Health (SMPH).

“We are very excited about the opportunity to partner with the university to create culture change and develop an environment where the focus is on both physical and emotional health,” Bridges added.

Dr. David Rakel, director of integrative medicine and associate professor of family medicine at UW called the effort “an investment in health.”

“Doctor-patient relationships are centered on disease, but integrative-medicine practitioners say that focusing more on overall health will help reduce the need for expensive ‘rescue’ from conditions that are not easily fixed,” Rakel said.

“This project should widen the lines of communication between physicians and veterans who need medical care.”

Rakel said UW was selected by the VA for its reputation in research and expertise in integrative medicine. Dr. Adam Rindfleisch, associate professor of family medicine at the SMPH and fellowship director of the UW integrative medicine program, has established on-line adult learning strategies that have been well received by physician learners.

Rakel said part of the training will allow participants to co-create the type of clinical care that will work best in their own environment.

“We hope to hit the pause button in the busy lives of professionals so they can take time to recognize how to change clinical habits,” Rakel said.

“They will also be asked to put themselves in the same situation as the veteran so they can get see what whole health means for them,” Rakel added.

For example, a clinical visit involving patients who are diabetic or depressed will focus on the story beneath the disease instead of just treating the disease specifically.

Clinicians will explore why some patients eat the way they do or fall back into dysfunctional coping styles.

Decisions on treatment and therapy would be based on what is called the Patient Health Inventory, in which the veteran is asked to put together personal goals that they believe will make them happier and healthier.

Clinicians will have two and a half days to experience, discuss, learn and explore what a model that focuses on whole health would look like. Clinical

CONSUMER PROTECTION

State gets judgment against workplace poster firm The State of Wisconsin has obtained a Consent Judgment against Lansing, Michiganbased Mandatory Poster Agency, Inc. and one of its principals, Steven J. Fata, in a case involving a deceptive solicitation for “annual corporate minutes” services.

The defendants agreed to a judgment against them for $340,000, including $183,500 in consumer restitution, costs and attorneys’ fees and $156,500 in civil forfeitures and related court assessments. The judgment also imposes requires them to make a set of changes to their solicitation in order to protect future consumers from being misled.

Defendant Mandatory

V.F.W. MEN’S AUXILIARY

Poster Agency, Inc., doing business as “Corporate Records Service,” sent solicitations to 72,860 Wisconsin corporations by direct mail in an envelope bearing the words: “IMPORTANT ANNUAL MINUTES REQUIREMENT STATEMENT.” Inside of the envelopes, recipients found a “2013-Annual Minutes Form,” the contents and form of which mislead businesses into believing that Wisconsin law required them to complete the form and send it to “Corporate Records Service" with a $125 payment.

The state also alleged that the solicitation, gave the misleading and deceptive impression that it was a government

document or was sponsored by the government, when it was not.

The state contended that the defendants violated state law which prohibits untrue, deceptive and misleading statements made to the public for the purpose of inducing the sale of goods or services.

Under the terms of the consent judgment, which was entered by the court on Sept. 4, Mandatory Poster Agency must register to do business in Wisconsin with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions, and the defendants must conform any subsequent solicitations to certain requirements as set forth in the permanent injunction.

tools, evidence-based information and patient handouts will be made available on the Internet.

Priorities include mental health issues and helping veterans who are struggling with lifestyle related conditions and amputations from combat.

“When we see all this burnout in health care, it’s a win, win, win situation,” Rakel said. “It’s enhancing the health of clinicians, which will give the learner insight into how to best do the same for the vets, and it will give them the power to create these new environments in their clinics, so they can promote health and resiliency in our health care system.”

Rakel said he is pragmatic about how much the pilot program will automatically transform health care and doctor/patient relations, but he believes progress will be made.

“I hope we can at least crack the door toward starting this conversation,” he said.

“We want to add a new type of health visit that says ‘What do you really need to improve your health? What are the one or two goals we can work on together that would really enhance your overall wellbeing?’ If we start to give the person’s whole health attention, it will grow. Over time, we will provide tremendous value in health care with the need for fewer office visits and fewer medications.”

Attorney General J. B. Van Hollen announced on Sept. 4 that Pharmacia Corporation has paid $29,453,247 to partially satisfy a judgment entered against it by the Dane County Circuit Court.

The Wisconsin Department of Justice filed the lawsuit against Pharmacia, a subsidiary of Pfizer, Inc., and 35 other drug manufacturers in 2004, alleging that they violated Wisconsin’s Medicaid fraud statute and Deceptive Trade Practices Act by inflating their reported drug prices to increase pharmacies’ reimbursement from Wisconsin Medicaid.

The jury trial against Pharmacia was conducted February of 2009; the jury found Pharmacia liable for Medicaid fraud and violations of the Deceptive Trade Practices Act, and the court ordered it to pay damages, forfeitures, and costs of more than $22 million.

After three years of appeals, the Wisconsin Court of Appeals and the Wisconsin Supreme Court affirmed the findings that Pharmacia defrauded the Wisconsin Medicaid program.

The $22 million trial court judgment has increased to more than $32 million after accounting for statutory interest.

Pharmacia, however, disputes the interest calculation and has paid only $29 million.

The disputed difference will be addressed in further litigation.

“This is great news for Wisconsin taxpayers.

Pharmacia’s payment helps

make the taxpayers whole for its fraudulent drug-pricing scheme against the Medicaid program,” Van Hollen said.

“This also is a resounding affirmation of our contention that Pharmacia and some other pharmaceutical companies falsely inflated the prices of their prescription drugs. Their scheme defrauded the State and its taxpayers, increased employer healthcare insurance premiums, and raised the costs of prescription drugs for the uninsured.”

On August 1, the Wisconsin Supreme Court dismissed Pharmacia’s Petition for Review and remanded the lawsuit for further proceedings before the Honorable Richard G. Niess in Dane County Circuit Court.

Van Hollen stated that he was pleased by the Supreme Court’s ruling, noting that it will allow the remaining claims against more than twenty other drug manufacturers to move forward.

“Every Wisconsin court that has been presented with the facts regarding the pharmaceutical companies’ fraudulent drug pricing scheme has found in favor of the state,” Van Hollen said.

“Now that the stay has been lifted against the remaining defendants, we’re another step closer to getting the State reimbursed for the overpayments it made for the falsely overpriced drugs.”

Wisconsin Medicaid is a healthcare assistance program for the needy and disabled jointly funded by the state and federal governments.

Some look at a marsh and see a marsh. Not AI McGovern. In 1935 McGovern bought an acre of swampy farmland located in the Town of Sun Prairie at the intersection of West Main and Bird Streets. The land was located just outside the Village of Sun Prairie. A road behind the bar was referred to as Pea Viner Road due to pea viners located along the road. This wonderful plot of land became home to a bar known as the High Life Gardens.

High Life Gardens also known as Smithy’s Gardens was constructed in 1935-36. The owner of the tavern was Orville C. Smith. Orville C. Smith was born in Missouri in 1895. On Jan. 19, 1925 Orville married Ruth McGovern in Jacksonville, Fla. Ruth, the daughter of John and Elizabeth McGovern, was born in the Town of Portland on Feb. 26, 1896. Ruth McGovern Smith applied for a Class B intoxicating liquor license and fermented malt beverage license in June 1936. The Sun Prairie Town Board acted on the license at its meeting on June 15, 1936. The first ad for the High Life Gardens appeared in The Countryman on Aug. 27, 1936. It listed O. C. Smith as the proprietor.

Smith sold High Life Gardens to R. C. Woodhead of Madison in 1941. Ross and Stella Woodhead took possession of the tavern on Sept. 1, 1941. The tavern developed an interesting reputation that encouraged people to attend the tavern. Woody and Stella celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary at Woody's on Sun., May 16, 1943. A large ad in The Countryman stated that the Woodheads invited friends and customers to an open house at Woody’s High Life Gardens. The wedding anniversary wasn’t mentioned in the weekly column, “What your neighbors are doing!” Bar owners were not considered as members of the village elite In 1947 McGovern’s sons John, Wayne and Jerry returned from World War II and the business was established as McGovern and Sons. McGovern and Sons leased three more acres of land in 1949, and by 1951 constructed a 10-unit motel, which was Sun Prairie’s first motel. A grill was added to the bar in the 1960’s. In 1962, 14 new units were added to the motel. Additional remodeling enlarged the bar, and 21 units were added to the motel. In 1960 the McGovern family opened the A.G. & W. Beverage mart in the Main Shopping Center.

STATE OF WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES

DNR to assume control of McKenzie Center With clear intent to continue environmental education programs while developing an innovative outdoor skills center, the Department of Natural Resources is announcing it will again assume full operation of the MacKenzie Center starting Jan. 2, 2014.

“We are pleased to announce that school-aged environmental education programs will continue to be offered at MacKenzie.

Additionally, to address a nationwide decline in hunting, angling and trapping, we will begin work to develop a new outdoor skills center,” said Kurt Thiede, DNR Land Division administrator.

“These activities are important to conservation, Wisconsin’s heritage and are a large part of conservation

funding,” added Thiede. “We will provide a hands-on platform for new participants and mentors to learn outdoor skills.”

The department initiated an open process known as a Request for Proposals or RFP to identify organizations that could help achieve the new goals at the center.

Interested organizations included the Wisconsin Wildlife Federation, who operated educational programming in partnership with DNR at the state-owned facility for the past seven years.

“Our aim was to continue a model of public/private partnerships which has been successful, most notably, within our State Park system,” said Thiede.

Though numerous organi-

zations indicated interest, Wisconsin Wildlife Federation submitted the only RFP during the open process. A team composed of DNR and non-DNR personnel reviewed and scored the proposal.

Based on the review, the team forwarded their recommendation to administration stating that the DNR should not enter into a long-term agreement with WWF. “Though we have valued our partnership with WWF over the past seven years, the review team felt the proposal did not lay out a solid path to achieving our vision,” said Thiede.

“Having heard the public’s desire to keep the facility open, and the fact that the legislature has directed the department to fund MacKenzie and provide

education through August 15, 2014, we needed to evaluate effective options.

“As a result of this process, DNR has decided it will provide funding, curriculum and educators for environmental programs and outdoor skills through this required August timeline and beyond. We are really looking forward to enhancing operations at the center while taking the lead on finding efficiencies.”

DNR has appointed JD Smith as Director of the MacKenzie Center. Smith is the former education section chief at DNR and will be forming a team to evaluate current operations, facility needs, and put processes in place to achieve the full vision for the center. This will involve reaching out to schools to get their

as the librarian at Lakeview Elementary School until her retirement in 1987, and was the Room Grandmother at Barb Trapp’s classroom at Maywood School in Monona for 15 years.

Toddy’s husband, Norm Glotz, was on hand to assist in the presentation of the iPad. The mission of the Kiwanis Club is to “Change the world, one child and one community at a time,” a statement brought to life through Toddy. There are only two requirements for children to receive an iPad through the Autism Spectrum project, which is funded by the Kiwanis Foundation. Students must have a medical diagnosis of autism and qualify for free and reduced lunch. Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a lifelong disability that affects they way a person communicates and relates to others.

According to the Centers for Disease Control, 1 in 88 children in the United States have autism in some form, making it twice as common as cystic fibrosis, cerebral palsy, childhood deafness or blindness, and 10 times more common than

childhood leukemia. iPads are being used by teachers and parents to reach children with ASD, and autistic children are showing tremendous improvement after incorporating the technology into their education.

It has been proven that autistic children benefit from the use of software Apps available for the Apple iPad. An iPad with a protective case and one app will cost approximately $500. Governor Messer’s goal is to raise over $500,000 during his term, which will be used to furnish iPads, Autism software Apps and protective cases for at least 1,000 children on the Autism Spectrum in the WIUM Kiwanis District.

The club is accepting donations for the Autism Spectrum iPad and App Grant project.

Checks should be made out to “The Madison East Kiwanis Foundation” and mailed to Larry Ryan, 5622 Irongate Drive, Madison WI, 53716.

“We will be spending the next several months assessing programming, working with the transition team. Together we will forward recommendations on future programs and operational efficiencies,” said Smith.

“We want to hear from our customers, and will keep them informed along the way.”

The department has a short-term agreement in place with WWF that assures educational programming will continue as scheduled through January 1, 2014. During the transition, DNR will be in communication with schools on scheduling programs at the

facility for 2014.

In addition to continuing educational programming at the center, DNR plans to continue hosting popular events like days featuring maple syrup and learn-to-hunt events.

Additionally, the animal exhibit will remain at MacKenzie, and DNR anticipates lodging will continue to be offered as part of the programming at the center. There are currently no plans to establish a shooting range at MacKenzie.

BUSINESS ROUND-UP Chobani recalls some Greek yogurt cups CANDICE CHOI, AP FOOD INDUSTRY WRITER NEW YORK (AP) — Chobani says it's recalling some of its Greek yogurt cups that were affected by mold, a move prompted by reports of illnesses by some customers.

The recall comes about a week after the company first started asking retailers to pull the products from shelves, say-

ing some cups were "swelling and bloating." Chobani had previously said it wasn't issuing a formal recall.

But the Food and Drug Administration said Wednesday that it was in talks with the company about the matter.

Chobani said that most of the affected products have already been pulled from shelves. The company, based in New Berlin, N.Y., said the affected products came from

its Idaho facility and represents less than 5 percent of its total production.

The containers are marked with the code 16-012 and expiration dates Sept. 11 to Oct. 7.

In an interview, Chobani CEO Hamid Ulukaya said it was the company's decision to move to a recall, not the FDA's.

He said the problem was caused by a type of mold that is commonly found in dairy environments. The issue has been "totally fixed," he said, noting

be later added in by the salesperson.

State law gives consumers three days to cancel a door-todoor sales transaction of $25 or more. A salesperson must tell you about your cancellation rights at the time of the sale, and provide you with two copies of a cancellation form.

One copy is for your records, the other is to send to the seller should you choose to cancel the purchase.

“The three day right to cancel law gives consumers time to reconsider their actions,” Chalmers explained.

“However, refusing to deal with salespeople who aren’t

following the law is still the best way to avoid becoming a victim.”

• SPPD launches tip411.

The Sun Prairie Police Department recently launched tip411, an internet based tool enabling the public to text message an anonymous tip to police, The system also allows the police to respond back, creat-

ing a two-way, anonymous chat. Teasdale said tip411 is reserved exclusively for public safety purposes and powered

by CitizenObserver.

According to Police Chief Pat Anhalt, this capability is a new paradigm for creating safer communities – especially in reaching out to a younger age demographic.

Anyone with a cell phone can now send an anonymous tip to the Sun Prairie Police Department by texting the word SunPrairie and the tip information to 847411 (tip411).

that the mold became a problem because Chobani doesn't use preservatives in its products.

Ulukaya did not say exactly how many reports of illnesses the company received, but said it was not in the hundreds or thousands.

This week, the company was responding online to customers who were complaining about their yogurt. One person said her yogurt was "unnervingly fizzy" and another said it tasted like "wine."

Samsung unveils smartwatch ahead of rival Apple BERLIN (AP) — Samsung unveiled its highly anticipated digital wristwatch Wednesday, beating Apple to what could become this year's must-have holiday gift item.

So-called smartwatches, which can perform tasks such as displaying email and Twitter messages on a device worn around the wrist, have been around for several years but have failed so far to inspire great interest among ordinary consumers.

But with smartphone behemoths Samsung Electronics Co. and Apple Inc. joining the fray — and Google pushing its Google Glass gadget — experts see a chance of wearable computers breaking into the mainstream.

That is, if consumers can

get used to talking to their watch, secret agent-style.

Automakers report sales up double-digits in August DETROIT (AP) — The major U.S. and Japanese automakers all posted doubledigit U.S. sales gains last month as car buyers snapped up pickup trucks and small cars to lead the industry toward its best month in six years.

Honda reported the biggest gain with sales up almost 27 percent over August of last year. Toyota sales rose nearly 23 percent, while Nissan was up 22 percent.

At General Motors, sales were up almost 15 percent for the company's best month since September of 2008.

Chrysler and Ford each reported 12 percent gains.

Sales in August ran at an annual rate of 16.1 million cars and trucks, a pace not seen since November of 2007, a month before the start of the Great Recession.

McDonald's exploring changes to Dollar Menu NEW YORK (AP) — McDonald's Corp. says a revamped version of its Dollar Menu that includes items priced as high as $5 could be launched nationally this year.

The world's biggest hamburger chain says it has been testing versions of its famous

value menu that's called "Dollar Menu & More" in five markets across the country.

The company noted that no official changes have yet been made to its current Dollar Menu, which was introduced more than a decade ago.

The change would come after McDonald's unsuccessful attempt last year to get customers to switch from the Dollar Menu to a pricier "Extra Value Menu," which features items costing closer to $2. But after sales flagged, the company went back to aggressively touting its Dollar Menu in TV ads.

Fed survey finds US economy growing moderately WASHINGTON (AP) — Economic growth held steady across the United States from July through late August, as Americans bought more cars and homes and auto factories added workers.

A Federal Reserve survey released Wednesday showed that all 12 of the Fed's regional banking districts reported modest to moderate growth.

That's roughly in line with the Fed's previous survey of those districts from late May through early July.

Attractive financing options helped boost demand for new cars and trucks in most districts, with many reporting robust sales.

Eight Conference opener.

After a sluggish start, that momentum finally kicked in as Sun Prairie rolled to a 3-0 victory over the host Regents.

“The environment itself at Madison West makes it a hard place to play at,” said Sun Prairie head coach TJ Rantala.

“And West is an unpredictable team that always plays good defense.”

What Rantala did know

about the Regents is that they had three returning senior starters, along with a host of juniors who had seen ample playing time last season.

The Cardinals struggled throughout most of the first game before Sun Prairie broke an 18-18 tie en route to a 25-20 victory.

ADISON, Wis. (AP) — Joel Stave won the Wisconsin quarterback job.

Runner-up Curt Phillips won his new coach's respect.

The veteran Phillips yielded snaps in a game to a freshman who needed the experience, a selfless act that Gary Andersen hopes is a defining moment for his 21st-ranked Badgers.

It's no big deal, Phillips said.

The 45-0 win over Massachusetts last weekend was well in hand by the time Andersen started thinking about pulling his starters in the second half. Phillips, a senior, didn't exactly need the work.

Redshirt freshman Bart Houston did.

"I was in the same position when I was younger," Phillips said after a recent practice. "I felt it was the right thing to do. I was excited to get to watch him play."

He'll keep watching another younger player from the sideline. There's no longer any public mystery over the starter going into this weekend's game against Tennessee Tech — sophomore Stave is the guy after winning what was billed as the close training camp competition with Phillips.

Though Andersen decided not to make a fuss over publicly naming a starter, Stave had a clue. It's not going to change how he gets ready for the Golden Eagles, an FCS program.

"No not at all, I knew I was going to start going into last week, so I prepared like I was going to start," Stave said. "I've got to continue to prepare the same way."

He could use more consistency. Stave struggled in the first half before finding his groove with two long touchdown passes to Jared Abbrederis in the second half.

"I thought there were a lot of areas in the first half that we can improve. We've got to get better in the red zone when we get down there," Stave said.

"We've got to make sure we convert third downs and finish drives with touchdown."

Stave was likely referring to one first-half drive in which he tried to scramble up the middle

GREEN BAY PACKERS

Packers target Colin Kaepernick Harbaugh wants his quarterback protected JANIE MCCAULEY, AP Sports Writer

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Jim Harbaugh wants to ensure mobile San Francisco quarterback Colin Kaepernick isn't blatantly targeted.

So the 49ers coach has gone to the NFL for clarity about when Kaepernick is supposed to be safe before declaring himself a runner.

Kaepernick ran the read option to near perfection on the big stage against Green Bay back in January. In this scheme, quarterbacks aren't as protected when they leave the pocket if it is clear they are runners.

"You're hearing a lot of tough talk right now, you're hearing some intimidating type of talk, the same thing we were hearing a couple years ago," Harbaugh said Wednesday. "It sounds a lot like targeting a specific player.

You definitely start to wonder.

A man will usually tell you his bad intentions if you just listen.

You know what's being said publicly, not what's being said privately. You hope that their intent isn't going to be anything that's not within the rules."

Kaepernick ran right past the Packers in the playoffs, and through them, too.

Kaepernick's breakout game in a breakthrough season came in his first career playoff start only two months after winning San Francisco's starting job, carrying the 49ers to a 45-31 divisional-round win in which he ran for a pair of touchdowns and threw for two more.

He set a quarterback playoff record in the process with 181 yards rushing in the win that sent San Francisco to a second straight NFC title game.

Kaepernick said he can't concern himself with the defense's motivations.

"I'm not worried about that," he said. "It's football, you're going to get hit."

Green Bay had no answer for the Niners' spot-on read option.

Coach Mike McCarthy said the biggest problem for the Packers was getting Kaepernick when he scrambled out of the pocket.

When asked whether he was surprised at just how well everything went, Kaepernick responded: "You're supposed to go out and perform as players.

That's what you get paid to do.

You can only line 11 people up so many ways, so we've seen a lot of different looks."

Linebacker Clay Matthews insists the Packers will be better prepared come Sunday's season opener at Candlestick Park when they try again to slow down and stop Kaepernick.

"For the most part we had the entire offseason to focus on this," Matthews said Wednesday. "You look at the progression of the league and specifically quarterbacks, Kaepernick, you look at Washington, Seattle, there are quarterbacks around the league that present problems not only

with their arms but with their legs, too. Whether that's in the pistol or the read-option offense, they're becoming more and more difficult to contest.

We had an entire offseason to focus on last year's loss, having time to kind of figure out a way to defend that. We obviously like to think we're better prepared to defend that type of offense and what he brings to the table."

Harbaugh plans to speak to the officials before the game about what the coach calls a "gray area" in the rules. He doesn't expect to hear back from the league before the game.

"Those are the conversations right now," Harbaugh said. "I haven't gotten the final clarification on what it's going to be."

San Francisco had 579 total yards with 323 on the ground in the playoff win, scoring its third-most points in the franchise's storied playoff history.

"I can assure you they're trying everything they possibly can to try and stop Kaepernick and the rest of this offense," said 49ers tight end Vernon Davis, who has a touchdown catch in each of his four regular-season games against Green Bay. "The read option, it's not a joke, it's nothing to play with. You have to really be prepared, you have to do your due diligence on the read option before you can defend it. Especially when you have a guy like Kaepernick who can run really well, he's fast and makes the correct decisions.

He's really disciplined when it comes to that phase, and they're definitely going to have to be prepared, and I know they will."

When reminded of how thoroughly his Packers were dominated by Kaepernick in the quarterback's record-setting day, Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy made a point that this is a new season.

"That's well stated, I think anybody would be motivated when it's directed at you like that. But the reality is, it is a new year, this is a different game, and we're prepared for a totally different outcome," McCarthy said upon hearing Kaepernick's stats once more.

"He had a heck of a night last year."

Notes: LB Patrick Willis, nursing a broken right hand, is expected to play Sunday. He hopes to be brace-free. "I'm going through some different contraptions, not sure what I'm going to end up with on game day," he said. "Hopefully, it will be nothing." ... Matthews said he might try to talk to former 49ers QB Scott Tolzien, now in Green Bay. "Maybe I should set aside an hour or so to pick his brain," Matthews said. ... When Harbaugh was asked whether he had spoken with LB Aldon Smith regarding a lawsuit naming him by a man who said he was shot during a party at Smith's house in June 2012, the coach said, "The team is handling it."

Smith said the lawsuit was no surprise but he declined to discuss it specifically.

great return teams which they showed against Middleton,” said the head coach. “What we have to do is take care of the football, avoid penalties and not get complacent.”

cold and it was not a good start to our night,” said Rantala. “We just came out not playing our game. But once we won the first game then things started coming together.

“Our goal was to be aggressive, but that didn’t take place until we settled down after the first game. Yes, we had seven matches under our belt before our first conference game, but still I think the girls were a little nervous and for some it was their first conference game.”

Rantala said Sun Prairie prevailed in the first game because of the defensive effort

of Anna Brereton and the serving of Molly Livingston.

And she added, “Our setters got our middles more involved.”

The second game was controlled by Sun Prairie, 25-12.

“We came out and attacked the ball and our blocking and defense both stepped up,” said Rantala. “We were really frustrating West.”

That frustration carried over into the third game as the Cards again dominated, 25-9.

“We frustrated them to the point that they really couldn’t do anything,” said Rantala, “and we just kept getting better and better.”

Statistic leaders for Sun

Prairie were: Kills – Emily Chaussee 10; Assists – Keely Brown 11, Amber Stieren 11; Aces – Molly Livingston 5; Digs - Anna Brereton 13; Blocks – Tierney Lindner 4.

“We still have a number of things to work on, but I think we’re on the right track,” said Rantala.

Sun Prairie will compete in the Oshkosh Lourdes Invitational this Saturday.

The Cardinals then host Verona next Tuesday with the varsity match starting at 6:30 p.m.

Sun Prairie will then have off until Saturday, Sept. 14 when they play at Beaver Dam.

for a touchdown a split second too late to get stopped at the 3.

The Badgers settled for a field goal.

"He's a smart kid. He's mentally tough," offensive coordinator Andy Ludwig said. "That's a great cornerstone to build on."

Phillips could be described as tough, too. He missed the entire 2010 and 2011 seasons, and has had three surgeries to repair the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.

So many missed opportunities. It may explain why Andersen, in Phillips' recollec-

tion, had a look of first shock, and then excitement, when his backup quarterback told him to give Houston the series last weekend.

If anyone can remind the Badgers not to overlook an opportunity to play against what figures to be another overmatched opponent, it's Phillips.

"You respect everybody who comes in here," he said. "It's not something where you can be lackadaisical in the beginning and can expect things to come together in my hyped games.

That's not how it works."

said. “It’s especially hard when luck gets you down but the guys need to realize those things happen and we still need to be able to overcome them.”

Despite generating sporadic offensive opportunities, the Cardinals were unable to cut into the deficit before Verona struck again in the second half, as a Wildcats’ forward sent a well-placed header into the twine to hand Sun Prairie its first defeat of the 2013 campaign.

Though luck wasn’t on their side, Wayland said there were a

number of issues the Cardinals will need to correct coming out of the loss, something the squad will have time address with a week off before they resume Big Eight action Tuesday against Beloit Memorial.

“Losses happen and it’s not anything for us to get on ourselves about. We just played a game where we didn’t play our best and we need to have a short memory,” Wayland said.

“We just need to concentrate on what’s important and that’s the next game.”

Chapel escaped injury during a flip on Lap One. Felker and Hagen held a slight advantage over the field during the first eight laps. Daum moved into second place on Lap 10. Fourth place running Austin Brown stopped on the track one lap short of the halfway mark causing a caution flag.

On the restart, Hagen challenged Felker for the lead and pulled even with Felker on Lap 15. Terry Babb made contact with another car at the start finish/line and hit the wall flipping multiple times, with his car tearing into the front stretch catch fence with four fence posts being removed from the wall. Babb was uninjured and track officials made repairs in around 25 minutes.

Hagen driving the Wilke No 5. was unable to restart the event due to engine problems.

Daum now running in second place began challenging Felker for the lead with 10 laps remaining. Daum took the lead as the pair crossed the start/finish line on Lap 21.

Caleb Armstrong also passed Felker for the second position. Two laps later Felker regained the second position.

Daum continued to increase his lead, when third place Armstrong stalled, bringing out the caution, with two laps remaining.

Daum finished three-car lengths ahead of Felker. Brad Kuhn who started in 13th position placed third followed by fast qualifier Parker Price-Miller and Brandon Waelti.

Kuhn has a virtual lock on his fourth Badger Drivers Championship now holding a 99-point lead over Felker, with

116 points available in Sunday’s final event. The battle for the Car Owners Championship now has Dan Felker No. 11 holding a 13-point lead over Bill Ecker No. 57.

“The car was perfect at the bottom allowing us to pass Felker, hopefully this is a great tuneup for tomorrow’s race” commented Daum who scored his second career victory at the track, and sixth overall of the season.

Jake Reif led the entire distance winning the 15-lap Badger 600 Micro Series feature for his third victory of the season. Reif finished ahead of Brandon Sletten, Ben Paderta, Chad Bogar, and Vance Lein, Matt Paderta finished sixth and holds a 42-point lead over Bogar heading into Sunday's final event.

608-444-0133 • waynesadek.com WARRANTY WITH FREE HOME EVERY NEW LISTING! Considering the limited length of summer in south central Wisconsin, we’re very lucky to have several fantastic golf courses available to play.

I played Hawks Landing for the first time recently and came extremely impressed with the condition of the course – from fairways to rough to greens.

Many people think Hawks Landing is a private course, but it is actually a semi-private course and open for public tee times the majority of the time.

Hawks landing offers five tee boxes (maroon, black, member, blue and white), ranging from a brutal 7,227 to 5,395 yards. I played the member tees, which were 6,330 yards and was extremely inconsistent on my way to a 98.

As I walked away from the course, a few things struck me. One was the impeccable condition of the course. It is really fun to play a well-manicured course in great condition. Another was the rough, which was thick and hard to deal with, and the vast amount of native grass on the course which claimed errant shots.

I also liked the fact that the five tee boxes were almost always separate and almost always cut between native grass.

It made for a more tour-like feeling off the tee box on every hole.

I did see a hawk on the tee box of No. 6, but this is a housing development course. The natural beauty of many courses in smaller towns throughout south central Wisconsin is replaced by man-made beauty and the sheer awe-inspiring size of many houses lining Hawks Landing. The spectacular sights on this course are more in tune with the grace of this plush Madison suburb.

They start you off easy at Hawks Landing with a very big landing area for your tee shot on the first hole.

Native grass in front of the tee box shouldn’t come into play, though a couple of fairway bunkers right might. The fairway rolls left and an approach from the right is easier, so you’ll want to aim for the right side of the fairway despite the presence of the bunkers.

An interesting approach features a hill right and a valley left and short of the green, which is tucked on the left side of the fairway. There are two traps left of the undulating green and an extended fairway right – making it obvious to aim for the right side of the green and meaning the flag will probably be left quite often.

The first hole was a harbinger of things to come for me as I hit a great drive down the right side of the fairway to about 50 yards. Unfortunately, in a bit of a rush and not having seen a yardage marker, I played it at 70-80 yards and flew the green into the native grass behind the green. Although I was one over after two holes, it was the start of many missed opportunities on the day.

No. 2 is a long par 4 that has a narrowing fairway from 150 yards in, so accuracy is a premium here. A foursome generously let me and my partner play through here and I bombed a drive down the right side of the fairway to a short wedge for par.

The green breaks right to left – especially heavier on the right side – and is surrounded by trees and native

grass. I dropped in a short putt for par here and felt like after somewhat rushing through the first two holes, I was in for a great day on a great course.

However, I stood at 21 putts after seven holes as it took me quite a while to figure out that these greens were lightning-fast. Add that to some misfortune on what I thought were good drives and I had to bring out my abacus on a few holes.

The third handicapped hole, No. 3 was very tough. After hitting two tremendous drives with people watching the first two holes, I topped a ball into the small patch of native grass in front of the tee box with nobody watching here.

Although I’m not a part of the texting generation, my first thought after hitting that drive was WTF. There was plenty of room in the fairway of this uphill hole although there was out of bounds (OB) left and native grass right, but I had to find the native grass in front of the tee box?

This hole was interesting in that not only the green, but the fairway was also two-tiered. A patch of rough cut through the middle of the fairway about 130 yards from the green with the left side elevated.

There are two bunkers front right and one back left of the two-tier green, which slopes back to front. I putted from the upper tier and rolled it right off the green. I didn’t calculate the speed of the green very well – or the break – or lack thereof.

An interesting par 3 and the highest hole on the course, you will want to aim for the middle or right side of the green on No. 4. A miss short, long or left is trouble, while there is plenty of room to miss right. My advice would be to hit the safe part of the green and be happy with par.

No. 5 was the beginning of my unraveling as I hit another monster drive down the middle of the fairway and still had a brutal approach thanks to a patch of rough on the left side. The landing area for your drive on this hole is unrealistically small if you are a long hitter, especially considering it rolls left toward the rough.

At 512 yards from the member tees on this downhill hole, I was about 200 yards out off the tee, but had a tough side-hill lie from the rough, which split the fairway.

The tee shot is tough enough as it is with OB on both sides, but adding the rough in the middle of the fairway is just brutal. There are two bunkers short left and another behind the green.

There are also trees left and right about 50 yards before the green that make this approach incredibly intimidating. However, if you can forget about that stuff and just hit a straight shot, you’ll be okay.

The green isn’t that tough, but the obscene amount of trouble leading up to it makes this an extremely challenging hole.

An interesting dogleg right, No. 6 is a short par 4 at 310 yards from the member tees. However, a pond right all the way to the green will make you put your driver away and hit a couple of irons to a hopeful par.

Naturally I didn’t do that, going for the green and pushing my drive slightly right into the pond just before the

green. I love to hit drivers off the tee, but the smart play is to hit an iron and take your par.

There is a hill left of the green that will bounce balls toward the green, so any miss on your approach should obviously be left. The longer, narrow green is flat in the back half but rolls toward the front in the front half.

Surprisingly, our putts didn’t roll toward the water.

I finally listened to the course guide book on No. 7 and hit a 3-wood off the tee to avoid the pond left about 250 yards out. The fairway narrows dramatically once you get inside of 150 yards, so only a perfect driver off the tee will work for you.

If left off the tee you’ll have to hit over the pond and a couple of traps in front of the green. There is also a trap back right and more trouble surrounding this undulating green.

A short par 3, you’ll have to carry water all the way to the 8th green.

Missing right is safe, but any other miss is big trouble. The green rolls back to front and there is a small valley in the front-right part of the green.

It was at this hole that I finally realized that the greens were extremely fast, but breaking less than I thought for the most part.

The “Silo Hole” is the signature hole at Hawks Landing. The guide book says, “You may not find a more difficult par 5 in the state.” A long, uphill dogleg right par 5, you’ll want to play this hole from the left side.

Again, the landing area narrows on this hole for longer hitters. I found a patch of uphill rough that separates the fairway about 240 yards from the green. I thought I had hit a fantastic drive and again was in trouble.

A ravine will engulf any approach shot right of the fairway, so aim left for safety. A waterfall sits right of the most severely sloped green on the course.

The severe back-left to front-right green and onslaught of trouble make this hole worthy of being ranked the 1st handicapped hole on the course.

You’ll find OB right and trees left on No. 10, another hole that features a split fairway. The guide book says to favor the middle to left side of the fairway, but I played it from the right side and had a much easier approach shot even from the rough than my partner who was in the fairway left.

The greens breaks slightly right and if your approach flies left of the green, it’ll very likely be lost.

A cool looking hole from the tee box, the fairway narrows the longer you hit your tee shot on the 361-yard 11th.

Native grass right and OB left can be troublesome as well as a pair of fairway bunkers left.

It is best to play this from the right side as a big tree sits front-left of the elevated green There is also a slight valley left of the green and a big trap and native grass right of this long, undulating green.

A straight, uphill par 5, No. 12 has room to work with off the tee. The twotiered green slopes back to front and has three traps around it.

A pond sits front and right all the way to the 13th green, which is extremely wide and can make for a really long putt. Pin placement means everything on this hole as if it is left,

the hole is manageable with the water not really coming into play if you don’t go right. If the pin is back right, you’ll have to carry water all the way up to the green.

A short par 4 at just 285 yards, No. 14 has trouble around the green but I think the risk is worth the reward to hit driver. There are two traps in the middle of the fairway about 174 yards out and another in front of the green.

If you can hit it straight about 230250 off the tee, it might be worth lying up and having a short approach to set you up for a birdie putt, but I think this is hole where hitting driver carries a solid risk-to-reward ratio. There is room to miss left of the undulating green.

A downhill par 4, No. 15 features one of the most open fairways on the course, though a pond right could gobble up tee shots of long hitters. There is another huge undulating green here that is mostly back to front.

Plenty of trouble in the form of trees and thick rough surround the green on the 206-yard, par 3 16th. The green slopes back to front and is very long and narrow.

Another split fairway awaits you on No. 17 with three traps from about 150 to 220 yards off the tee box. I aimed for the 150-yard marker and thought I hit a perfect drive, but again it rolled into the rough where the fairway juts left. Three bunkers surround much of the green, which sloped back to front.

A 520-yard par 5, No. 18 offers more risk and reward for you. It is best to play this hole from the right side as a pond front and left of the green narrows the fairway.

If you do go for it in two, you’ll likely have to hit it over the pond, unless there is a far right pin placement.

Two traps are on the right side of the fairway with another right back of the green, which undulates but does roll toward the pond.

I was close to the green in two, hit a nice chip and sank a short putt to end the day with a birdie. After all the drives down the middle that ended up in rough and a few other tough breaks, it was a nice way to end the round.

Hawks Landing is in fantastic shape and well worth the effort to go out and take advantage of this wonderful, semiprivate course.

ake some Hoodoo, melt in some Velveetatones, add the Spector, and throw in a Wolfman.

No, it’s not a vintage 1950s horror film, but the recipe for this year’s Sun Prairie Blues Festival, which takes place from 11 am.-10 p.m. in Angell Park.

Featuring two stages for the first time, this year’s Sun Prairie Blues Fest will take place in the ball field near the former Angell Park Little League diamonds.

The site will afford more space and a quicker timed show, with just 10 minutes between the end of one act and the start of another. A side “cigar box” stage will afford performer groupings more conducive to the Blues Fest’s small hall setting.

Chief among this year’s unique acts is Walter “Wolfman” Washington, a veteran blues performer who is no stranger to blues venues across the U.S. Washington, or Wolfman as he is known in blues circles, has been an icon on the New Orleans music scene for decades. His searing guitar work and soulful vocals have defined the Crescent City’s unique musical hybrid of R&B, funk and the blues since he formed his first band in the 1970s.

Washington began his career during the heyday of the 1950s Rhythm and Blues period that spawned dozens of Number 1 songs and made New Orleans the recording destination of choice for hit makers like Ray Charles and Little Richard.

Born in 1943, Washington was on the road by his late teens spending over two years backing the great vocalist Lee Dorsey who was touring in support of his smash hits, “Ride Your Pony” and “Working in a Coalmine.”

When Washington formed his first band as a leader he was often pigeonholed into the blues genre. But by taking his cues from other New Orleans greats, his sound reflects the full range of music from New Orleans. He

certainly can howl the blues, hence his nickname, but his musical talents have always defined pure Crescent City soul. In later years, with the second rise of funk, Washington fully embraced that genre as well.

Seeing Wolfman Washington perform with his current band, the Roadmasters, is akin to taking a history lesson on black music in America with the exception that sitting down and taking notes is not an option. With his breadth of experience and seemingly endless repertoire, each of his highly danceable shows is one-of-a-kind. Like the greatest jazzmen, Washington channels his everyday life into his music. Depending on the setting, the band plays the blues, R&B, soul, funk, jazz and everything in between with pure heart.

Pavilion. Advanced tickets remain $10 in advance or $15 the day of the show. Tickets are available for sale at Madison area Park Bank locations; Beans ‘n Cream Coffeehouse at 345 Cannery Square in downtown Sun Prairie; and Cannery Wine & Spirits, 240 E. Main in downtown Sun Prairie.

Plenty of food options will be available at the Blues Fest in addition to wine and beer available for sale.

VIP tables remain available for sale through the Sun Prairie Blues Fest website, spbluesfest.com.

The site remains a wealth of information about the festival itself, and the festival’s sponsors.

This year, the Sun Prairie Blues Fest is presented by the Sun Prairie Lions Club with generous help from its sponsors: The Star and sunprairiestar.com; the Sun Prairie Tourism Commission; McGovern’s Motel & Suites and McGovern’s Club & Restaurant; Park Bank and Miller Lite.

Parking will remain in the same area as in the past and tents will provide shelter from the sun and in the event of wet weather.

Also, please note, the date is not the Saturday after Labor Day but the weekend following, Sept. 14; the change was made due to some conflicts with the traditional weekend.

BLUESFEST

Filipowicz returns

Local blues man makes second Fest appearance

BY DAN CORCORAN Hometown News Group

Late one night nearly 60 years ago, a young boy growing up near the bustling blues hub of Chicago managed to pull in a radio station from Tulsa, Okla. with his brother. That young boy was about to hear a selection of music he never had before, altering his musical tastes and providing the foundations for a career in the music industry.

Paul Filipowicz was that boy of a mere five years old and what he heard was a sampling – three songs in a row – of some of the best blues musicians on the scene: Sonny Boy Williamson, Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf.

“When you hear music, it does things to you. It moved my soul and my spirit,” Filipowicz said, recalling his first experience with the blues which shaped his passion for the genre.

“Especially back then, you didn’t get blues all the time, so whenever I heard blues after that I always gravitated to it. Of course I heard everything else that was on the radio, but the blues was like, ‘Man, that’s what I’m looking forward to hear.’ ” Growing up, music was always in Filipowicz’s family as his sisters both played piano and his entire family sang at the church they attended.

Unlike his sisters, Filipowicz’s first instrument was not the piano, and following in his father’s footsteps, his first instrument became the harp.

As Filipowicz heard more and more of the blues in the early 60s, especially what bluesmen were doing on the

harp, he started trying to play his harp just like those musicians he was hearing.

Then around 1965, Filipowicz had his first experience with live blues while waiting for outside a club in Chicago where Otis Rush was performing. In the same year, Filipowicz and his family moved from Chicago to southern Wisconsin where finding access to blues and blues albums became increasingly harder with trips to the city much less frequent.

Still, Filipowicz continued to progress and by the time 1971 rolled around he had his first professional gig playing harp. With his experience on the harp, Filipowicz had also learned how to play the electric guitar by ear just like he had done with the harp.

Filipowicz spent most of the early ‘70s traveling around the country and playing in various bands while trying to see as many blues performances as he could. Then in about 1975, he began fronting his own band using his talents on the harp as well as the electric guitar he had grown a strong passion for.

Filipowicz played a great deal in the Madison area and got to open for many of the top performers in the blues industry, when the industry was much different than it is now.

“Madison used to have a pretty driving blues scene, more so than it is now. There was more interaction in the clubs with everybody,” Filipowicz said. “The smaller hometown thing is where you would go in and feel comfortable where you could go up and talk to Luther Allison and just sit there and talk to him.

“I used to open up for Hound Dog Taylor and Mighty Joe Young and all these guys and Coco Taylor and all these guys that had come up from Chicago. And we’d all just sit around together and it was real common.

“It was just a common, simple everyday occurrence kind of like the Chicago scene. It was like you expected it. Now it’s really not – I don’t know. It’s just different.”

The differences in today’s blues scene aren’t just contained to the genre, as more and more media continue to flood the music market, making live gigs for musicians like Filipowicz less appealing.

“Right now actually it’s not just that blues is really suffering, but the markets are so competitive because there’s all kinds of other media and stuff.

All the social media is fighting for your attention and so all kinds of live music venues…it’s really competitive. There’s more snippiness going on and stuff like that,” Filipowicz said, comparing live shows now to battle of the bands competitions from the sixties where bands only made money if they won.

But even though the feel of blues has changed somewhat over the course of his almost 40 years in the business, the sounds which make Filipowicz’s sound unique have remained essentially untouched.

“I’m pretty much a Westside Chicago blues player with a little Texas sugar on top,” Filipowicz said, while also explaining the key points of his Chicago-style roots.

“Westside Chicago blues is more lead guitar-driven. It was

Paul Filipowicz

usually two guitars, a bass and drums, whereas Southside Chicago blues usually had the harp going for it.”

The influences for Filipowicz’s sound have roots in his younger years when he first tuned in to the sounds of the blues, including one of his biggest influencers, Howlin’ Wolf.

“Howlin’ Wolf was a whole different animal, though,” Filipowicz said. “He’s like the baddest cat you’ll ever hear. If they sent out a time-capsule – they shot it off into outer space and they said, ‘This is what blues music sounds like on earth’ – they would have to put a Howlin’ Wolf album in there.

“He’s a harp player and a singer with the deepest, baddest blues voice in the world.”

Other influences on his sound include Otis Rush, Magic Sam, Jimmy Dawkins and as Filipowicz stated, “anybody else that put on an electric guitar.”

With advice from some of blues’ best, Filipowicz has utilized his musical influences while still creating a unique

sound that has led to the production of seven albums since 1996.

“All these guys, they pointed me in the right direction, especially the older guys like Hound Dog Taylor. He told me if you’re just a copycat, you’re a copycat.

Anybody can sound like somebody, but in order to be a true bluesman you have to have your own sound,” Filipowicz said. “That’s what I do. I have my kind of sound.”

Coming out in April of this year, Filipowicz’s latest production is “Saints and Sinners,” which is his first album in nearly seven years. In only a few months the new album has already received a fair amount of air time on XM satellite radio and has even reached a few charts. His three previous albums “Chickenwire,” “Chinatown” and “Midnight at the Nairobi Room” also had a fair amount of success with all three making the Living Blues Chart, while his first album “Go for the Throat,” was even more successful, hitting the number one spot on the Belgium radio charts in 1997.

Those attending this year’s Sun Prairie Blues Fest will hear music off Filipowicz’s new album, but there’s no guarantee he won’t venture off course and play something else. He’ll go wherever the blues takes him.

“When I play a show I have a certain amount of songs that I do and sometimes if the feeling grabs me I’ll just throw something else different that I’m just feeling at the moment.

It might be like all of a sudden the people might need to hear something more danceable or more up-tempo. Sometimes the crowd dictates a lot of that, or all of a sudden you can feel that they want to hear a real slow grind,” Filipowicz said. “So that’s the beauty of playing live with people. You feed off of their energy. Communicate with them and give them what you think they want.”

Regardless of what he plays, the winner of three Madison Area Music Awards is sure to put on a show that will bring those in attendance back in time to the likes of Howlin’ Wolf and Muddy Waters.

“I started to become curious and so I rented from Netflix a couple of videos of the Folk and Blues Festival from the 60s Some music is like a snack.

Hoodoo u love?

Local band returns to Fest

BY DAN CORCORAN Hometown News Group

While sitting in a sundrenched Potbelly’s on a summer evening in early August, Aaron Williams answered a question regarding what he does for a day job. Considering his band plays about 140 yearly gigs, you’d think he’d answer that he was a professional musician.

You’d think he’d answer like that, but he didn’t. Instead, Williams, sporting dress pants and a collared long sleeve shirt, replied with a chuckle that he’s a science geek with a degree in cell physiology from UWWhitewater.

He was certainly dressed the part of a white-collar professional with a demeanor to match, but when the weekend arrives, or the occasional weeknight, Williams puts on a whole new persona – a mad scientist of sorts – trading his scientific instruments in for his instrument of choice: a guitar.

For the first time in several years, Williams will take to the lab at Sun Prairie Blues Fest along with his band Aaron Williams and the Hoodoo, which has experienced a great deal of success since forming five years ago in 2008.

“We’ve kind of found a really good balance with playing music, having a healthy lifestyle and still furthering the name of the band. I think we’re in a real good place right now, where we’ll all happy with how things are going,” Williams said, referring to how the band has cut back somewhat on how much it travels and how many gigs it plays.

Back in 2011 alone, the group played 170 shows, and just this summer the trio did their 1000th show since forming. And for a band that’ s consisted of the same three people since it started, that many

shows in that amount of time is special as Williams explained.

“That’s quite a bit. It’s rare that you find two guys that you can get along with and spend that much time in a band and traveling on the road and not kill each other,” he said, noting the band travels within a sixhour radius of Madison.

“It’s something that we are proud of because there are a lot of bands that do 100 shows and we’ll do a show with them and they’ll kind of assume that we don’t have day jobs. And we’re really proud the fact that we’re able to do that many shows and still all have jobs, because as any musician, it’s hard to make a living playing music. All the more power to people that can. We’re just very careful.

“It’s not a matter of trying.

It’s a matter of doing. You either do or you don’t. You either have the time or you don’t.”

As Williams discussed during the interview, when the modern blues group originally formed, it wasn’t exactly love at first sight. Williams’ dad, Cadillac Joe Andersen was hosting a blues jam at his club in Deerfield, the Cuda Café, but when he got too sick, Williams chose to take over the operation. He ended up meeting his drummer Eric Shackelford at the jam and the two continued to play together at the club.

The third member of the band known as Z also played at the club and Williams expressed interest in hiring him as the bass player and third member of the group. However, Shackelford wanted nothing to do with Z, saying he wasn’t right for the band – Williams referred to the relationship between the bass and the drums as a marriage, and Shackelford didn’t feel that type See HOODOO, next page

Blues collection Velveetatones meld different musicians into blues band

BY JAKE KURTZ Hometown News Group

The Velveetatones may take their music seriously, but they don't view themselves that same way.

Formed 12 years ago with what bass player Tony Menzer calls “a collection of journeymen musicians,” the band has become a popular ticket in the state because of its Wisconsin roots and will be part of the program at this year's Sun Prairie Blues Fest.

Menzer is from Madison while guitarist Reverend Raven hails from Milwaukee.

Drummer Craig Panosh spends his days in Two Rivers while guitar player and vocalist Jim Ohlschmidt is from

Sheboygan.

Keyboard player Ken Saydak, who spent years banging out tunes on the Chicago blues scene, now resides in Colorado but still tours when possible.

“We're definitely not your normal blues band, even though we're all veterans,” Menzer laughed. “I love these guys and the stuff we do together.”

Although the Sept. 14 concert is one of the closest-tohome that Menzer will have this summer, it's just a small part of his immense schedule.

The 62-year-old still plays around 230 gigs per year with various bands and friends.

“Each show is like a new job interview,” Menzer said.

“Throw that into the mix and you see just how incredible that number is.”

As for the Velveetatones, the group has put out three albums to date — ‘Inna-gaddada-Velveetta,’ ‘Behind the Cheddar Curtain,’ and ‘Livin' Velveeta Loca’ — with its members appearing on more than 40 overall recordings in the last 30 years.

The group's name, Menzer said, dawned on him one evening when he opened his refrigerator one night and saw a block of the processed cheese sitting there.

“While we were coming up with a name, there it was,” Menzer remembered. “We all laughed about it and then made it happen.”

And each of the CD titles were formulated before the group actually writes or records any music.

Other musicians with ties to the group, Menzer said, could also be making an appearance in Sun Prairie. He said the band tends to switch guitar players every five or six songs, along with other sporadic changes.

“The band has been around for awhile now, but tends to never be the same,” Menzer said. “Club owners know that it changes and I like to bring in different people depending on who I can all gather up.”

Menzer also said this year's Blues Fest is “a great festival” that he and his bandmates are excited to join.

BLUESFEST Dynamic Duo Cigarbox blues Specter, Lewis ready to provide unique Blues Fest performance from the Bay

SUN PRAIRIE LIONS CLUB

BY JAKE KURTZ

Hometown News Group

Since he began playing professionally in 1985, Chicagobased blues musician Dave Specter has toured the U.S. and Europe and played with some of the best in his line of work.

Smaller midwestern gatherings like next month's Sun Prairie's BluesFest, though, are among his favorite performances.

“It's fascinating to see the crowd and how they respond in other countries because it's quite a bit different than here,” Specter said. “Every place is really interesting and memorable in its own way.”

Specter will be among the seven acts visiting Sun Prairie on Sept. 14 as part of Blues Fest, now in its seventh year and sponsored by the Sun Prairie Lions Club.

Joining him on stage will be prominent Chicago vocalist Sharon Lewis, who Specter has toured with off-and-on for eight years, including internationally. Lewis' sound has been compared to the likes of Aretha Franklin and Etta James.

Specter traditionally does not sing at his performances.

“We've got some history together,” Specter said of Lewis.

“She appeared on my ”Live in Chicago’ CD and DVD in 2008 through Delmark Records.”

Based in Chicago, Delmark Records is one of the oldest blues and jazz labels in the

world, Specter noted, that is still under original ownership.

Specter to date has produced enough musical content to span nine albums, with a tenth currently in the works that he is “strongly focused on.”

His “Bluebird Blues” release in 1991 reached the top spot on both the Living Blues national radio chart and Tower Records blues chart.

Specter's 2010 album “Spectified” was purely instrumental and featured nine original songs. David Hidalgo from the popular group Los Lobos was a special guest on the collection. Chicago Blues Guide called the album's arrangements “first class,” and said

Specter is “a rare commodity in the music world.”

“I really enjoy writing instrumentals for blues guitar.

That's what I consider my specialty and I'm very proud of,” Specter said. “It's both challenging and very rewarding to write my own tunes, and makes it all worth it when I hear other people cover them.”

The bulk of Specter's gigs these days are prominent around venues in Chicago, such as the House of Blues and Buddy Guy's Legends. He recently performed in Argentina and Israel.

“They get excited when someone from Chicago or an American artist comes to per-

form for them,” Specter said of the shows abroad. “Believe is or not, in places like those, there are pretty strong blues scenes and fans that support and believe in the music.”

As for his trip to Sun Prairie, Specter said he has played in and around Madison before, “but it's been a few years.” The Blues Fest performance, Specter plans, will open with some instrumental work, bring in some original tunes from Lewis, and incorporate some of his work and a few cover songs.

“I'm excited to come up and put on a good show,” he added.

More recently, although not an award, the group released a new album called “Live, Loud Harmony,” which was recorded live at the Harmony Bar in Madison. The compilation was the band’s first live album, something Williams was excited about because of how much different the band sounds live as opposed to a studio recording.

“Live, Loud Harmony” includes two new songs, two covers the group has never done before, and six other songs off the first two albums.

Although they have no set list for the Sun Prairie Blues Festival, according to Williams, the new album has nearly all the songs the group will play at the show.

But as the group plays what their friends – Williams refers to the band’s fans as ‘friends’ – want to hear, you never know

what you might hear come Sept. 14 at Angell Park.

Aaron Williams and the Hoodoo will play at the Cigar Box stage, something new to this year’s festival, and those who go will witness a few tricks that the band employs.

However, there aren’t any tricks when it comes to the music Aaron Williams and the Hoodoo produces, as their passion for music can be felt through their unique blues and roll style.

“I think the biggest thing is that we genuinely love to play and I think it shows in our performance. We believe it’s a privilege to get up in front of

In March of 2011, the Los Angeles Times published a piece detailing the growing popularity of cigar box guitars.

The story focused on guitarist pat mAcdonald and singer melaniejane, a couple who make up the blues duo Purgatory Hill and employ the uncommon instrument in their music.

“This one really did release a flood of new songs for me, and it still is,” mAcdonald said of the unique guitar.

Locals who have never had the chance to see or hear rifts from a cigar box guitar will get their chance on Sept. 14 when Purgatory Hill joins the Sun Prairie Blues Festival.

The duo's music is described as dark, sexy and hypnotic, with mAcdonald also playing guitar, harmonica, and stompbox. He has worked with artists such as Stewart Copeland of The Police, and Jackson Browne.

of relationship was there with Z. But Z continued to show up and play at the club, and eventually he and Shackelford got past their differences. Now five years later, the two are practically inseparable, according to Williams.

With a strong connection amongst the power trio – guitar, bass, and drums – and a plethora of shows under their belts, the group has honed its take on the blues.

“We really like to use the term blues and roll because it really is that. I would say high energy blues and roll,” Williams said, describing the end product is a combination of blues, rock and roots, and not distinctly one genre. “We’re not very subtle. We prefer to slap you in the face and make you decide whether you’re going to like us or not. It’s in your face,” Williams said.

The band’s mixing of styles stems in part from Williams’ interest in a wide variety of music growing up, with his major influences naturally being three guitar players: Jimi Hendrix, John Lee Hooker and Ronnie Earl. But for so someone interested in music, specifically guitar players, Williams never really wanted to play the instrument until his teen years.

“I always had music playing.

I just never wanted to play it. I wanted to meet girls so I picked up a guitar. That was as simple as that,” Williams said of when he first played guitar at the age of 16.

From there, Williams joined his dad’s band as a side man playing guitar and traveling with the group from 1998 to 2003, all while attending Whitewater. But in 2003 when his dad could no longer play, Williams too gave up playing for a while, until he got back into the swing of things at the Cuda Café in 2008.

When Aaron Williams and the Hoodoo formed, Williams, who had only played guitar, now took on a new role as singer, which started out on a bit of a rough road.

“That was the first time that I’ve ever really tried that kind of thing and it was a slap in the face,” Williams said of trying to sing. “It’s a lot harder than I thought.”

But with the band named after him, Williams really had no choice but to continue to keep working at singing. The good news is that all three members of the group do vocals at one point or another, diverting some of the pressure off Williams’ vocal chords.

Still, even a few struggles with singing haven’t stopped Williams and the band from success. The group has already won seven Madison Area Music Awards and one Wisconsin Area Music Award in the short time together.

Included in the awards are the MAMA for Artist of the Year and the WAMI for Blues Artist of the Year, both from 2011.

people and I think people resonate with that kind of thinking because no one wants to go and see a band that’s just up there because they have to,” Williams said. “We’re up there because we want to.

“And there’s nothing like – it’s cliché – but there’s nothing like seeing people dancing, and smiling and supporting music that you wrote yourself. When you can take time and write a song and practice and rehearse it and get out in front of people and have people enjoy what you’re doing – there’s very few things that are better than that.”

His cigar box guitar features two necks — one wired with three guitar strings, the other with a bass string.

A Milwaukee native, melaniejane started her music career playing cello but today can entertain with a keyboard, accordion or variety of hand percussions.

“I started out playing cello with [mAcdonald] when mainly he was on guitar,” melaniejane said. mAcdonald first rose to notoriety in 1987 with a Grammy nomination while with the Austin, Tex., group Timbuk3. Since then he has released seven albums, of which five were distributed worldwide. melaniejane said her and mAcdonald used to tour and carry a heavier performance schedule until they moved to Door County.

Today, they co-own and manage the Holiday Music Hotel in the heart of Sturgeon Bay. The facility is popular with musicians and hosts weekly concerts and songwriter retreats. A recording studio is also onsite.

“We did a lot of shows until I took over the motel full-time,” melaniejane explained. “That has kept us grounded up here. We still get out and play, it's just not as many miles as before.”

Both melaniejane and mAcdonald are also key supporters and organizers with the Steel Bridge Song Fest, a local music festival that began in 1996 as part of an effort to save the historic Michigan Street Bridge in Sturgeon Bay from demolition.

“The festival ties in with a lot of other things, not just music,” melaniejane said.

“We have people come in and stay the whole week here and collaboratively play and record.”

LEGAL PUBLICATIONS SCHOOL DISTRICT OF SUN PRAIRIE ANNUAL NOTICE OF SPECIAL EDUCATION REFERRAL AND EVALUATION PROCEDURES Upon request, the Sun Prairie Area School District is required to evaluate a child for eligibility for special education services.

A request for evaluation is known as a referral. When the district receives a referral, the district will appoint an Individualized Education Program (IEP) team to determine if the child has a disability, and if the child needs special education services. The district locates, identifies, and evaluates all children with disabilities who are enrolled by their parents in private (including religious) schools, elementary schools and secondary schools located in the school district.

A physician, nurse, psychologist, social worker, or administrator of a social agency who reasonably believes a child brought to him or her for services is a child with a disability has a legal duty to refer the child, including a homeless child, to the school district in which the child resides. Before referring the child, the person making the referral must inform the child's parent that the referral will be made.

Others, including parents, who reasonably believe a child is a child with a disability, may also refer the child, including a homeless child, to the school district in which the child resides.

Referrals must be in writing and include the reason why the person believes the child is a child with a disability. A referral may be made by contacting Jennifer Apodaca, Director of Special Education, Sun Prairie Area School District, at 834-6520, or by writing her at 501 S. Bird Street, Sun Prairie, WI 53590 STATEMENT OF NONDISCRIMINATION No student may be discriminated against in any school programs, activities or in facilities usage because of the student's sex, color, religion, profession or demonstration of belief or non-belief, race, national origin, ancestry, creed, pregnancy, marital or parental status, homelessness status, sexual orientation or physical, mental, emotional or learning disability. Harassment is a form of discrimination and shall not be tolerated in the district.

It is the responsibility of administrators, staff members and all students to ensure that student discrimination or harassment does not occur.

The process of locating, identifying, and evaluating children with disabilities is known as child find. This agency con-

ducts the following child find activities each year: The school district has a special education screening program to locate and screen all children with suspected disabilities who are residents of the district and who have not graduated from high school. Upon request the school district will screen any resident child who has not graduated high school to determine whether a special education referral is appropriate. A request may be made by contacting Jennifer Apodaca, Executive Director of Student Services, Sun Prairie Area School District, at 608-834-6520, or by writing her at 501 S. Bird Street, Sun Prairie, WI 53590.

Annually the district conducts developmental screening of preschool children.

Each child's motor, communication, and social skills are observed at various play areas.

The information is used to provide the parent with a profile of their child's current development and to provide suggestions for follow-up activities.

Parents learn about community services available to them.

The information from screening is also used to determine whether a child should be evaluated for a suspected disability. When school staff reasonably believes a child is a child with a disability, they refer the child for evaluation by a school district Individualized Education Program (IEP) team. Watch for the dates at your local school or contact Sally Drenoske at 834-6574.

This notice informs parents of the records the school district will develop and maintain as part of its child find activities.

This notice also informs parents of their rights regarding any records developed.

The school district gathers personally identifiable information on any child who participates in child find activities. Parents, teachers, and other professionals provide information to the school related to the child's academic performance, behavior, and health. This information is used to determine whether the child needs special education services. Personally identifiable information directly related to a child and maintained by the school is a pupil record. Pupil records include records maintained in any way including, but not limited to, computer storage media, video and audiotape, film, microfilm, and microfiche. Records maintained for personal use by a teacher and not available to others and records available only to persons involved in the psychological treatment of a child are not pupil records.

The school district maintains several classes of pupil records.

• "Progress records" include grades, courses the child has taken, the child's attendance record, immunization records, required lead screening records, and records of school extra-curricular activities. Progress records must be maintained for at least five years after the child ceases to be enrolled.

• "Behavioral records" include such records as psychological tests, personality evaluations, records of conversations, written statements relating specifically to the pupil's behavior, tests relating specifically to achievement or measurement of ability, physical health records other than immunization and lead screening records, law enforcement officers' records, and other pupil records that are not "progress records."

Law enforcement officers' records are maintained separately from other pupil records.

Behavioral records may be maintained for no longer than one year after the child graduates or otherwise ceases to be enrolled, unless the parent specifies in writing that the records may be maintained for a longer period of time. The school district informs parents

when pupil records are no longer needed to provide special education. At the request of the child's parents, the school district destroys the information that is no longer needed.

• "Directory data" includes the student's name, address, telephone listing, date and place of birth, major field of study, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of attendance, photographs, degrees and awards received, and the name of the school most recently previously attended by the student.

• "Pupil physical health records" include basic health information about a pupil, including the pupil's immunization records, an emergency medical card, a log of first aid and medicine administered to the pupil, an athletic permit card, a record concerning the pupil's ability to participate in an education program, any required lead screening records, the results of any routine screening test, such as for hearing, vision or scoliosis, and any follow-up to the test, and any other basic health information, as determined by the state superintendent. Any pupil record relating to a pupil's physical health that is not a pupil physical health record is treated as a patient health care record under sections 146.81 to 146.84, Wisconsin Statutes. Any pupil record concerning HIV testing is treated as provided under section 252.15, Wisconsin Statutes.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), and section 118.125, Wisconsin Statutes, afford parents and students over 18 years of age ("eligible students") the following rights with respect to education records: • The right to inspect and review the student's education records within 45 days of receipt of the request. Parents or eligible students should submit to the school principal a written request that identifies the records(s) they wish to inspect. The principal will make arrangements for access and notify the parent or eligible student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. The school district will comply with the request without unnecessary delay and before any meeting about an individualized education program, or any due process hearing, and in no case more than 45 days after the request has been made. If any record includes information on more than one child, the parents of those children have the right to inspect and review only the information about their child or to be informed of that specific information. Upon request, the school district will give a parent or eligible student a copy of the progress records and a copy of the behavioral records. Upon request, the school district will give the parent or eligible student a list of the types and locations of education records collected, maintained, or used by the district for special education. The school district will respond to reasonable requests for explanations and interpretations of the records. A representative of the parent may inspect and review the records.

• The right to request the amendment of the student's education records that the parent or eligible student believes is inaccurate or misleading. Parents or eligible students may ask Sun Prairie Area School District to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading. They should write the school principal, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the district decides not to amend the record, the district will notify the parent

or eligible student of the decision and the right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the parent or eligible student when notified of the right to a hearing.

• The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information in the student's education records, except to the extent that federal and state law authorize disclosure without consent.

The exceptions are stated in 34 CFR 99.31, Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act regulations; Sec. 9528, PL107-110, No Child Left Behind Act of 2001; and section 118.125(2)(a) to (m) and sub.

(2m), Wisconsin Statutes. One exception that permits disclosure without consent is disclosures to school officials with legitimate educational interests.

A school official is a person employed by the district as an administrator, supervisor, instructor, or support staff member (including health or medical staff and law enforcement unit personnel); a person serving on the school board; a person or company with whom the district has contracted to perform a special task (such as an attorney, auditor, medical consultant, or therapist); or a parent or student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility. Upon request, the district discloses education records without consent to officials of another school district in which a student seeks or intends to enroll. Also the district discloses "directory data" without consent, unless the parent notifies the district that it may not be released without prior parental consent.

The right to file a complaint with the U. S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the District to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the Office that administers FERPA is: Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, S.W., Washington, DC 20202-4605.

LEGAL PUBLICATIONS DISTRITO ESCOLAR DE SUN PRAIRIE AVISO ANUAL DE RECOMENDACIÓN PARA EDUCACIÓN ESPECIAL Y PROCEDIMIENTOS DE EVALUACIÓN A solicitud, Sun Prairie está obligado a evaluar a un menor para determinar si éste requiere servicios de educación especial. Se conoce como recomendación a una solicitud de evaluación. Cuando el distrito recibe una recomendación, el distrito designará un equipo de Programa Individualizado de Educación (IEP, por sus siglas en inglés) para determinar si el menor tiene una discapacidad, y si el menor necesita servicios de educación especial. El distrito ubica, identifica, y evalúa a todos los menores con discapacidades que son matriculados por sus padres en escuelas privadas (incluyendo religiosas), escuelas primarias y escuelas secundarias localizadas en el distrito escolar.

Un médico, enfermera, psicólogo, trabajador social, o administrador de una institución social quien crea razonablemente que un menor que ha sido llevado al mismo para recibir servicios es un menor con discapacidad, tiene el deber legal de recomendar a este menor, incluso si es un menor sin hogar, al distrito escolar en el cual vive el menor.

Antes de recomendar al menor, la persona que hace la recomendación debe informar a sus padres que se hará dicha recomendación.

Otros, incluyendo a los padres, quienes crean razonablemente que algún menor es un menor con discapacidad pueden también recomendar al menor, incluso si es un menor sin hogar, al distrito escolar en el cual vive el menor.

Las recomendaciones deben hacerse por escrito y deben incluir la razón por la cual la persona cree que el menor es un menor con discapacidad. La recomendación debe hacerse contactando a Jennifer Apodaca, Director de Educación Especial, Sun Prairie Area School District, en el 608-834-6520, o escribiéndole a 501 S. Bird St, Sun Prairie, WI 53590.

Ave, Sun Prairie, WI 53590.

Anualmente, el distrito lleva a cabo la evaluación del desarrollo de los niños en edad preescolar. Motor de cada niño, la comunicación y habilidades sociales se observan en las áreas de juego diferentes.

La información se utiliza para proporcionar a los padres con un perfil de desarrollo actual de sus hijos y ofrecer sugerencias para el seguimiento de las actividades. Los padres aprenden sobre los servicios comunitarios disponibles para ellos.

La información de proyección también se utiliza para determinar si un niño debe ser evaluado donde hay sospecha de incapacidad. Cuando el personal de la escuela crea razonablemente que un niño es un niño con una incapacidad, se refieren al niño para la evaluación de un programa del distrito escolar de Educación Individualizada (IEP). Esté atento a las fechas de su escuela local o el contacto con Sally Drenoske al 834-6574.

Este aviso informa a los padres de los registros que el distrito escolar creará y mantendrá como parte de sus actividades de intervención temprana. Este aviso también informa a los padres de sus derechos sobre cualquier registro creado.

El distrito escolar reúne información de identificación personal de cualquier menor que participa en las actividades de intervención temprana. Los padres, maestros, y otros profesionales proporcionan información a la escuela en relación al desempeño académico, conducta y salud del menor. Esta información es usada para determinar si el menor necesita servicios especiales de educación. La información de identificación personal directamente relacionada con el menor y mantenida por la escuela es un registro de alumno. Los registros de alumno incluyen datos mantenidos en cualquier medio incluyendo, entre otros, medios de almacenamiento informáticos, cintas de video y audio, película, microfilm, y microficha. Los registros mantenidos para uso personal por un maestro y que no se encuentran disponibles para otros y los registros disponibles sólo para las personas involucradas en el tratamiento psicológico de un menor no son registros de alumno.

El distrito escolar mantiene diferentes clases de registros de alumno.

• Los "Registros de Progreso" incluyen notas, clases que el menor ha tomado, el registro de asistencia del menor, registros de vacunaciones, registros obligatorios de detección de plomo, y registros de actividades extracurriculares de la escuela. Los registros de progreso deben ser mantenidos por lo menos cinco años después que el menor deje de matricularse.

• Los "Registros de Conducta" incluyen registros como pruebas psicológicas, evaluaciones de personalidad, registros de conversaciones, declaraciones escritas relacionadas específicamente con la conducta del menor, pruebas relacionadas específicamente al logro o medición de la capacidad, registros de salud física aparte de registros de vacunación y detección de plomo, registros de agentes del orden público, y otros registros de estudiante que no sean “registros de progreso.” Los registros de agentes del orden público se manti-

enen separadamente de otros registros del alumno. Los registros de conducta pueden ser mantenidos por un lapso no mayor de un año después de la graduación del menor o después que el mismo deje de matricularse, a menos que el padre especifique por escrito que los registros pueden ser mantenidos por un periodo de tiempo mayor. El distrito escolar informa a los padres cuando los registros de alumno ya no son necesarios para proporcionar educación especial. A solicitud de los padres del menor, el distrito escolar destruye la información que ya no es necesaria.

• Los "datos de directorio" incluyen el nombre del estudiante, dirección, teléfono listado, fecha y lugar de nacimiento, campo principal de estudios, participación en actividades y deportes oficialmente reconocidos, peso y altura de los miembros de los equipos atléticos, fechas de asistencia, fotografías, grados y premios recibidos, y el nombre de la escuela más reciente a la que haya asistido previamente el estudiante.

• Los "registros de salud física del estudiante" incluyen información básica de salud sobre un alumno, incluyendo los registros de vacunación del alumno, una tarjeta de emergencia médica, un registro de primeros auxilios y medicina administrada al alumno, y una tarjeta de permiso atlético, un registro sobre la capacidad del alumno de participar en un programa de educación, cualquier registro obligatorio de detección de plomo, los resultados de cualquier prueba de detección de rutina, como una prueba de audición, visión o escoliosis, y cualquier seguimiento a dicha prueba, y cualquier otra información básica de salud, como sea determinado por el superintendente del estado. Cualquier registro del alumno relacionado con la salud física del mismo que no sea un registro de salud física del alumno es tratado como un registro de cuidado de salud del paciente según las secciones 146.81 a 146.84, de los Estatutos de Wisconsin. Cualquier registro del alumno sobre prueba de VIH es tratado como se proporciona en la sección 252.15, de los Estatutos de Wisconsin.

La Ley de Derechos Educativos de la Familia y la Confidencialidad (FERPA, por sus siglas en inglés), la Ley de Educación para Individuos con Discapacidades (IDEA), y la sección 118.125, de los Estatutos de Wisconsin, proporcionan a los padres y a los estudiantes mayores de 18 años ("estudiantes aptos") los siguientes derechos respecto a sus registros de educación: • El derecho a inspeccionar y revisar los registros de educación del estudiante dentro de los 45 días posteriores a la recepción de la solicitud.

Los padres o los estudiantes aptos deben enviar al director de la escuela [or appropriate school official] una solicitud escrita que identifique el(los) registro(s) que ellos desean inspeccionar. El director puede hacer arreglos para el acceso y notificar al padre o al estudiante apto sobre el momento y lugar donde los registros pueden ser inspeccionados. El distrito escolar cumplirá con la solicitud sin retrasos innecesarios y antes de cualquier reunión sobre un programa educativo individualizado, o cualquier proceso de audiencia pendiente, y de ninguna manera después de cumplirse los 45 días posteriores a la fecha de la solicitud. Si cualquier registro incluye información sobre más de un menor, los padres de dichos menores tienen derecho a inspeccionar y revisar sólo la información sobre su niño o a ser notificados sobre esa información específica. A solicitud, el distrito escolar entregará al padre o al estudiante apto una copia de los registros de pro-

greso y una copia de los registros de conducta. A solicitud, el distrito escolar entregará al padre o al estudiante apto una lista de los tipos y la ubicación de los registros de educación recolectados, mantenidos, o usados por el distrito para educación especial. El distrito escolar responderá a las solicitudes razonables de explicaciones e interpretación de los registros. Un representante del padre puede inspeccionar y revisar los registros.

• El derecho a solicitar la enmienda de los registros de educación que el padre o estudiante apto crea que son incorrectos o engañosos.

Los padres o estudiantes aptos pueden pedir que el distrito escolar de Sun Prairie corrija un registro que según ellos es incorrecto o engañoso. Ellos deben escribir al director de la escuela, y claramente identificar la parte del registro que desean cambiar, y especificar por qué es incorrecta o engañosa. Si el distrito decide no corregir el registro, el distrito notificará al padre o al estudiante apto de la decisión y el derecho a una audiencia sobre la solicitud de enmienda. Información adicional sobre los procedimientos de audiencia será proporcionada al padre o al estudiante apto cuando se le notifique del derecho a una audiencia.

• El derecho a consentir la divulgación de la información de identificación personal en los registros de educación del estudiante, salvo en la medida que las leyes federal y estatal autoricen la divulgación sin consentimiento. Las excepciones están indicadas en 34 CFR 99.31, reglamentos de la Ley de Derechos Educativos de la Familia y la Confidencialidad; Sec. 9528, PL107-110, Ley Que Ningún Niño Se Quede Atrás - o ”No Child Left Behind” del 2001; y la sección 118.125(2)(a) a (m) y sub.

(2m), de los Estatutos de Wisconsin. Una excepción que permite la divulgación sin consentimiento es la divulgación a los funcionarios de la escuela con intereses legítimamente educativos. Un funcionario de la escuela es una persona empleada por el distrito como un administrador, supervisor, instructor, o miembro de apoyo del equipo (incluyendo equipo médico o de salud y personal de la unidad de orden público); una persona miembro de la junta directiva de la escuela; una persona o compañía la cual ha sido contratada por el distrito para realizar una tarea especial (como por ejemplo un abogado, auditor, consultor médico, o terapeuta); o un padre o estudiante miembro de un comité oficial, como por ejemplo un comité disciplinario o de agravios, o que ayuda a otro funcionario de la escuela a desarrollar sus labores. Un funcionario de la escuela tiene un interés legitimamente educativo si éste necesita revisar un registro educativo para cumplir con su responsabilidad profesional. A solicitud, el distrito divulga los registros educativos sin consentimiento a los funcionarios de otro distrito escolar en el cual un estudiante busca o pretende matricularse. También, el distrito divulga "datos de directorio" sin consentimiento, a no ser que el padre notifique al distrito que estos no pueden ser divulgados sin previo permiso de los padres.

• El derecho a presentar una queja con el Departamento de Educación de los E.U. sobre presuntas fallas del distrito en el cumplimiento de la Ley FERPA. El nombre y dirección de la Oficina que administra la Ley de Derechos Educativos de la Familia y la Confidencialidad o FERPA es: Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, S.W., Washington, DC 20202-4605.

However, Sun Prairie Area School District may disclose appropriately designated “directory information” without written consent, unless you have advised the District to the contrary.
