Fantastic questions and a Facebook milestone The students at Cambridge Lakes Charter School in Pingree Grove sure seem to ask good questions.

I visited the school two times during the past few weeks to speak to different groups of students about journalism and my career.

During the presentations, I was asked questions about how a newsroom operates; how journalists get their story ideas; what some of my favorite stories to write have been; and whether I like Apple or Samsung better (Apple, but the Samsung phones I have seen look awesome); among other topics.

I love it when students are engaged, and Cambridge Lakes didn’t disappoint.

After both presentations concluded, I asked my

An item on page 3 of the Nov. 13 edition of the Kane County Chronicle included incorrect information.

K ANE COUNTY

CHRONICLE

Get to know Kevin Stahr Aurora resident Kevin Stahr, 39, who works as the communications coordinator for the city of Geneva, was on Third Street in downtown Geneva when he answered 11 questions for the Kane County Chronicle’s Al Lagattolla.

Who would play you in the movie of life?

A lot of people say I look like Bob Saget, so I guess he would be playing me in a made-forTV movie.

Is there a movie you would recommend? I like “Anchorman,” or any of the Jason Bourne movies.

Where did you grow up? Clarendon Hills What was your first job? I worked at Kramer’s grocery store, stocking shelves, in high school.

As a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? I wanted to play in the NBA. Did you play basketball? I did in high school and in college at North Central.

What position did you play? Center and forward. Eventually, I stopped growing. So that NBA dream faded away.

Do you have hobbies? I’m really into

sports, any Chicago sports team besides the Cubs. … I’m interested in 20th century U.S. history. I’m kind of a history buff.

What is your favorite local restaurant?

I’ve liked many different restaurants since I started working in Geneva. My favorite is Old Towne Pub and Eatery.

Do you have family here? I am married, and I have a 2-year-old daughter.

What is an interesting factoid about yourself? I have been to five presidential library museums, which goes along with my history buff personality. It’s something that always fascinated me, studying history and the decisions that presidents have faced throughout different eras of U.S. history.

I’ve been to five, and I hope to make that list longer.

Beardsley’s Barber Shop offers cuts in STC

By ASHLEY SLOBODA asloboda@shawmedia.com ST. CHARLES – In the few months since opening his latest barbershop, Joe Beardsley has created more than just a space where men can get a hot-lather shave.

Beardsley’s Barber Shop, 1558 E. Main St., St. Charles, transformed a former car rental space in the Tin Cup Pass shopping center into a place where there’s no need for political correctness, and predictions on high-profile events, such as the World Series and presidential race, are welcomed.

“We solve world problems,” Beardsley, 47, said.

He opened the St. Charles location having four other spots – two in Illinois and one each in Alabama and Missouri – under his belt, he said.

Three sites have since been sold to family, he said, noting he maintains ownership of the suburban St. Louis shop, which his 28-year-old son runs.

Providing flat tops and fades wasn’t Beardsley’s original career choice – he once worked as a machinist and pursued a degree in automated manufacturing – but he got into barbering at his father’s suggestion, he said.

His father – also a barber – told him he had more business than he could handle, Beardsley said.

He said he ended up in St.

COVER STORY MINI HORSES AND MARKLUND ‘Even if they can’t see or hear, they can feel their warmth’

By SANDY BRESSNER sbressner@shawmedia.com

ne miniature horse – dressed as Mickey Mouse – nudged a giant rubber ball, prompting a resident to reach out and tap it back. Meanwhile, a second mini horse – dressed as Minnie Mouse – visited with others as they pointed and waved at the animal.

The two miniature horses were from Equine Dreams in Newark, and the residents of Marklund in Geneva all were excited to see them during their monthly visit.

Marklund is a nonprofit organization that serves infants, children, teens and adults with serious and profound developmental disabilities and special health care needs.

“I think the miniature horses enjoy having a job,” said Equine Dreams miniature horse handler Leslie Stuba. “They have a wonderful temperament. [The horses] are very attuned to the environment and behaviors.”

Marklund physical therapy assistant Rose Vicker said having the horses there is so motivating for the clients.

“They feel their breath; even if they can’t see or hear, they can feel their warmth,” she said.

Former Geneva man pleads guilty to sexual assault of child

• Saturday, November 14, 2015

A former Geneva man is headed to prison after he pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a child he knew, according to a news release.

Timothy J. Dolan, 51, of Windermere Road, Winfield, and formerly of Geneva, agreed Thursday to a sentence of 4 ½ years in the Illinois Department of Corrections in exchange for a guilty plea, the news release stated.

Dolan pleaded guilty to criminal sexual assault, a Class 1 felony, and aggravated criminal sexual abuse, a Class 2 felony, according to the release. Circuit Judge John A. Barsanti accepted the plea.

Between August 1998 and August 2005, Dolan sexually assaulted and sexually abused the child, whom he knew, the release stated. The person was younger than 18 years old at the time, and the unlawful sex acts took place at a residence in Geneva, ac-

cording to the release.

After the prison term, Dolan must follow all conditions of specialized Timothy sex offender J. Dolan probation for 30 months.

The conditions require Dolan to not have any contact with the victim, not possess any sexually explicit material, not use websites that contain sexually explicit material and not intentionally loiter near places frequented by minors, the release stated.

Dolan must register for life as a sexual offender, in accordance with the Illinois Sexual Offender Registration Act. Dolan must serve at least 85 percent of the sentence, according to Illinois law, and he was given credit for at least 499 days served in the Kane County Jail.

Kane County Assistant State’s Attorney Greg Sams prosecuted the case.

County gets over $1.7M in federal housing funds Homeless Management Information System, a database to be used by area agencies to track services for homeless individuals and families.

• $23,935 for parking lot construction for the Aurora Area Interfaith Food Pantry.

• $30,240 in operating support for the Public Action to Deliver Shelter in Aurora.

• $27,000 in operating support for the Public Action to Deliver Shelter in Elgin.

• $226,435 to cover the expenses of administering the Community Development Program and planning activities.

Berger said the county’s budget for its HOME Investment Partnerships and Neighborhood Stabilization programs is $1.2 million, with nearly $58,000 for administration and planning.

“It captures the use of HOME funds, as well as the use of Neighborhood Stabilization funds,” Berger said. “We have combined these federal fund sources, calling it Affordable Housing Funding, and also using Community Development Block Grants. We are pooling these funds to create a dedicated fund to address affordable housing needs.”

Berger said the county will provide these funds through requests for proposals from developers, as well as from profit and

nonprofit groups, that propose to develop affordable housing for middle-income households to buy or rent.

The programs will go into effect now and be finished in a year, he said.

“Most of the money will go for building infrastructure, buying and rehabbing homes, constructing affordable housing [and] some homeless shelter operating support,” Berger said. “The Office of Community Reinvestment is trying to improve conditions for lower- and middle-income households to be self-sufficient, and to help people at the same time.”

U.S. Reps. Bill Foster, D-Naperville, and Randy Hultgren, R-Plano, both announced a total of $48 million in HUD funds were awarded for Kane and Will counties.

“Ensuring stable, safe housing for all Americans should be one of our top priorities,” Foster stated in a news release.

“These funds will help us build strong communities and provide a foundation for those in need to build a better life for themselves and their families.”

Also in a prepared statement, Hultgren said, “I trust our state and local officials will use this funding efficiently and responsibly to ensure the ‘least of these’ in our communities are served well.”

GENEVA – The Kane County Office of Community Reinvestment received more than $1.7 million from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to help provide housing assistance for needy individuals and families.

Community Reinvestment Director Scott Berger said the funds will be used according to a plan the county filed with the federal government.

“Congress allocates funding for community development and affordable housing across the country based on a formula that includes median income, housing stock – a whole host of stuff that is included in the formula,” Berger said. “It provides a way of allocating the federal funding to cities, counties and states. We didn’t say, ‘Please give us $1 million.’ We had to file for it.”

HUD provided about $1.1 million in Community Development Block Grants and nearly $600,000 in HOME funding to the county’s reinvestment division, records show.

The county awards block grants for specific projects or to specific agencies from its HUD allocations. HOME funding goes toward expanding housing programs that serve low- and

very low-income families, according to the grant information.

Berger said the county’s current total block grant budget is $1.5 million – more than the $1.1 million it received because it includes funding from other sources, such as surplus funds from a previous year and loan repayments.

“We provide loans to address housing needs. And when we sell those properties, we provided down payment assistance,” Berger said. “They repay the money. And we recycle it, and we help other people later.”

The following Community Development Block Grant funds will be put toward several local projects: • $837,347 for the county’s Affordable Housing Fund, which will leverage multiple funding sources to preserve and create affordable housing for households with incomes below 80 percent of the area median income.

• $40,000 for sidewalk and retaining wall construction along the north side of East Wilson Street between Woodland Hills and Kirk roads.

• $38,160 will go toward operating support for the Lazarus House emergency shelter in St. Charles for its emergency and transitional housing services.

• $21,800 to implement a

Three charged after drug seizure near Hampshire KANE COUNTY CHRONICLE editorial@kcchronicle.com HAMPSHIRE TOWNSHIP – Three Minnesotans are each being held on $800,000 bond in Kane County following a drug and weapons seizure this week, according to a news release.

Leo Cook, 31, and Jessica Johnson, 29, both of the 19000 block of Highway 1 in Redby, Minnesota, and Derek Paddy, 19, of the 900 block of Circle Pines Road in Red Lake, Minnesota, each were charged with unlawful manufacture or delivery of a controlled substance, unlawful possession of a controlled substance, and armed violence, the release stated.

The manufacture or delivery – and the violence – charges are Class X felonies, and the possession charge is a Class 1 felony, according to the release.

A Kane County sheriff’s deputy stopped a 2007 Chev-

rolet Impala traveling westbound on I-90 near Route 47 in Hampshire Township for an equipment Leo Cook violation, the release states.

During the stop, a narcotic-detection K9 was walked around the Jessica exterior of the Johnson Impala, and the K9 indicated the potential presence of narcotics inside of the vehicle, according to the release.

Derek Paddy A search of the Impala resulted in the seizure of 400 grams of heroin, with a street value of about

$80,000; a .45 caliber handgun; a 9mm caliber handgun; and $9,000 in U.S. currency.

Sculpture in the Park: The Delnor Woods Edition GOOD NATURED Pam Erickson Otto St. Charles is known for many things, not the least of which is Sculpture in the Park.

Hosted by the St. Charles Park District, the annual event showcases sculptural arts in innovative fashion.

Each summer, sculptors display their works among the scenery at Mt. St. Mary – the riverfront, the arboretum, the gazebo and water feature. It’s all really quite stunning.

It also is over, at least for this year. The park district’s construction crew, which carefully installed each piece last spring, of late has been hard at work taking down the artwork in preparation for the cold months ahead.

Luckily, our area is rich – not only in sculptors, but also in other artisans. Specifically, beavers. Last Saturday morning I was at home, minding my own business, as they say, when I got a text from Kathy Andrini. On a walk at Delnor Woods Park, she’d come across a tree that had been cut down by some very industrious rodents – Castor canadensis, the American beaver. The tree wasn’t huge, but it wasn’t small either. And it also was quite heavy. Kathy wondered if someone from the district could come and get it off the path.

With the sun shining and nothing on my to-do list until afternoon, I jumped at the chance to head over to one of my favorite parks and tidy up what our buck-toothed neighbors had left behind.

Sure enough, not far from the front pond at Delnor Woods, a 20-foot-tall elm tree lay by the asphalt path. A helpful visitor had come along and lugged it out of the main thoroughfare, but it still needed a little cutting to be completely out of the way.

As I dragged my trusty bow saw back and forth across the 5-inch diameter trunk, I once again, as I always do, marveled at how beavers can cut down trees using nothing more than their really strong jaw muscles and four sharp incisors.

I was bent, at a somewhat awkward angle, over the tree and saw and thoughts of

Equipped with incisors that actually sharpen with use, beavers can make quick work of trees – especially those with thin bark. This “sculpture” is all that remains of a blue beech, or musclewood, tree at Delnor Woods Park in St. Charles. beavers occupying much of my attention. But I happened to look up, for just a second. And that’s when I saw it. Delnor Woods’ answer to Sculpture in the Park.

Perhaps it was the way the sunlight was hitting it. Or maybe it was the fact that I was somewhat sleep deprived.

At any rate, I positively was awestruck by the beauty of the creation before me.

As if sculpted with a chisel, a blue beech – also known as a musclewood tree – bore eye-catching, ecru-hued indentations at intervals along its steel-gray bark. Devoid of branches, the trunk rose up at

an odd tilt and reached toward the sky. Courtesy of the morning sun, a long shadow reached beyond the mini-monument and toward the adjacent red oak.

The most amazing part? The sculptor, I mean beaver, actually appears to have climbed the tree!

The topmost part of the trunk, right where it had formerly sprouted into branches, was snipped clean. The height at that spot, I estimated, was a good 5 ½ feet above the ground.

Now, beavers aren’t small creatures, by any means. An average adult weighs around 50 pounds and individuals as big

as 90 pounds have been recorded. But a beaver that stands over 5 feet tall? I think not.

I walked around the tree or, rather, what was left of it, and saw what I was hoping to find – claw marks. Weird as it seems, I really think the beaver climbed that tree.

Back at home, I found if you search the Google for the term “beavers climb trees,” you’ll be overwhelmed with websites explaining how this feat simply is not possible: They’re adapted to an aquatic lifestyle. They have a hard enough time walking on

land, let alone climbing a tree.

They’re bottom heavy. Their forelimbs aren’t long enough.

The list goes on. But until someone can give me another reasonable explanation, I’m sticking with my bizarre theory that at least one local beaver has developed a new, arboreal skill set.

I went back to Delnor Woods on Wednesday to check and see what the beavers have been up to. Not only had they felled their original 5-foot creation, but they also had gone after two other musclewoods, reducing them to stubby, but interesting, stumps.

As intriguing as the handiwork was, I did feel a little bad for the trees.

This unusual species is characterized by smooth bark and, as naturalist Dick Young described, “undulating, musclelike ripples in the trunk and branches.” I can think of only a few places in Kane County where musclewoods grow. And now, thanks to the beavers, there’s one less spot to go see them.

The silver lining, however, is there’s one more spot to go see art in nature. It’s on Route 25, one-third-mile north of Route 64. Sculpture in the Park: The Delnor Woods Edition.

A series of apparent terrorist attacks rocked Paris on Friday night, leaving more than 100 people dead at separate locations amid a continuing gun battle and possible hostage situation at a downtown concert hall, authorities and news media reported Friday evening.

The BFMTV TV network later reported at least 60 people were dead in the carnage.

Explosions near a soccer stadium forced authorities to evacuate President Francois Hollande, who was among thousands watching a friendly match between France and Germany.

Police said at least 15 people were killed in the Bataclan theater, where a hostage-taking was underway, and 11 were slain at a Paris restaurant in the 10th Arrondisse-

ment, the Associated Press reported. An American metal rock bank, Eagles of Death Metal, was performing at the time of the attack, media reports said.

The deputy mayor of Paris, interviewed on CNN, said the apparent hostage situation was “going on as we speak.”

He said there were unconfirmed reports the attacks near the Stade de France stadium north of Paris were committed by suicide bombers.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks, which were nevertheless celebrated on social media linked to the Islamic State extremist group.

In Washington, the White House said President Barack Obama “was briefed on the situation in Paris by Lisa Monaco, assistant to the president for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism.”

Former U.S. Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert addresses a gathering of friends and supporters in December 2012, when a plaque honoring his years of public service was dedicated at the Kendall County Historic Courthouse in Yorkville. The plaque recently was taken down.

Hastert’s legacy ‘a black eye’

Officials begin to remove reminders of former speaker of the House

By MATT SCHURY mschury@shawmedia.com The question of how disgraced former U.S. Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert will be remembered in the wake of his pleading guilty to evading banking laws in a hush-money scheme is beginning to be answered.

Hastert, a Plano resident, agreed last month to a deal with federal prosecutors that recommends he serve no more than six months in prison.

The deal would allow Hastert to avert a trial in the case. A judge, however, could go beyond that recommendation and give Hastert up to five years behind bars, according to The Associated Press.

A sentencing hearing for Hastert has been set for February.

Officials are beginning to remove public displays honoring the long-time politico.

The Yorkville Wrestling Club said it had renamed its annual invitational wrestling tournament in July shortly after Hastert was indicted. The event, formerly known as the Denny Hastert Yorkville Invitational, is held in January and February. It will still take place, but it is now called the

Fighting Foxes Invitational.

Chad Stevens, president of the Yorkville Wrestling Club, said the organization changed the name at a board meeting in July well before Hastert entered his guilty plea.

“We didn’t want to have anything detract from the youth program that we run,” Stevens said.

He added the program is run by parents and local coaches and isn’t connected to Hastert. Stevens said they named the tournament after Hastert because he was a prominent, respected member of the community who had a well-known background as a wrestling coach during his years as a teacher at Yorkville High School.

Stevens said he didn’t know Hastert, but said the former coach would occasionally make a quiet appearance at the tournament.

“He didn’t really have any affiliation with the club,” Stevens said. “We are going to still continue to have our wrestling tournament for the club but it won’t be named after Denny Hastert. It’s still one of the premiere wrestling tournaments in Illinois.”

‘Black Violet, Act II’ set for today at Fermilab

• HASTERT Continued from page 16 ‘A black eye on the county’

Another reminder of Hastert’s legacy was recently removed. Kendall County Board Chairman John Shaw had the county’s facilities management department take down a plaque with Hastert’s visage on it from the Kendall County Historic Courthouse in downtown Yorkville.

The plaque was installed in the first floor hallway of the courthouse in 2012 and included a list of Hastert’s accomplishments. Hastert helped secure federal funding to preserve and refurbish the courthouse, which has stood since 1864 and was rebuilt within the same walls after a fire in 1887. Until Hastert secured federal funds to help restore the courthouse in the 1990s, county board members were actively considering selling the building.

Shaw, who was close to Hastert, said he didn’t want to attract any more attention with the Hastert plaque.

“I knew there was going to be someone who was going to come up and make a big demonstration about it and demand that we take it down and pass a resolution,” Shaw said.

“I took it down ... ,” Shaw added. “It’s in safe keeping.

There have been some people on my own board that have

asked about it quite some time ago.”

The plaque, paid for with private donations, hung in the doorway to a meeting room on the first floor of the courthouse, next to a similar plaque honoring former Kendall County Republican Party Chairman and longtime State’s Attorney Dallas Ingemunson, a Hastert mentor.

The bronze plaque features a bust of Hastert with his name under it and an inscription that reads, “Longest serving Republican Speaker of the United States House of Representatives.” The plaque also contains a list of his public service accomplishments, including the years he coached and taught at Yorkville High School from 1965 to 1981 as well as his time in the state legislature during the 1980s.

It also notes his time in Congress from 1986 to 2007 and his tenure as speaker from 1998 to 2007.

Shaw said he took the plaque down shortly after hearing that current U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan had Hastert’s picture removed from the Hall of Speakers at the U.S. Capitol in Washington. D.C. “Why add to Yorkville’s embarrassment? It’s a black eye on the county. This is a crushing blow and everywhere I go – when I go down to Grundy County, Kane County, Cook County – it’s the first … thing

they want to know about,” Shaw said. “It’s like finding out that your grandmother has been stealing money … and it’s actually worse than that.”

“We have a false sense of a relationship,” she said. “And with that there is also a family that is devastated. The truth is that in the end you are only

accountable to yourself. It’s disappointing whenever an elected official or somebody in a leadership position falls from grace.”

Park sign removed this week

In the village of Oswego, a sign with Hastert’s name that stood in front of the Oswego Village Police Department was removed quietly last week.

“It was my decision, since he [pleaded] guilty, we just felt that we didn’t want to draw a lot of attention to it or pomp and circumstance, but we did take it down,” Village President Gail Johnson said.

The sign that read “J. Dennis Hastert Park” was put up in 1986 when the land along Route 34 was given to the Oswegoland Park District. The sign remained even after the village constructed a police station on the site in 1991.

“I didn’t know Denny Hastert, and I never met him in person,” Johnson said, adding, “I do believe when we are elected officials that we hold ourselves to a higher standard.”

Johnson said that she had gotten a few phone calls from community members and she called the village administrator and told her to take it down.

“He has probably gotten the ire of enough people, and we just tried not to add to that,” she said.

Johnson added that it is hard to know anyone in the public eye.

Keeping the public informed

When a soft lockdown situation took place Tuesday at two schools in Batavia School District 101, district officials alerted students’ families via email and automated phone calls.

On the same day, a brief soft lockdown situation took place at Kaneland High School.

Officials with Kaneland School District 302 sent an email to families later in the day explaining the situation, noting the lockdown was over before communication could be sent. In addition, an email notice was sent to that district’s families one day prior – on Monday – about a threat that had been investigated at the high school.

It is laudable that both districts moved to notify those who were most closely affected, but neither district sent out information to the local media. And when there is an ongoing incident that is of interest to those in the community, accurate and timely information should be delivered to as many people as possible. Local media can help achieve that goal.

We are grateful that local parents brought the soft lockdown information to our attention. And it is understandable that the first priority in such situations is the safety of the students and those working at the affected schools, followed by their close family members. But there are people beyond that group who also want to know the details – friends, extended family members, people who might have business in or near the schools.

A Batavia spokesperson said a soft lockdown is when no one is allowed in or out of a school building because of an incident outside of the school. On Tuesday in Batavia, the soft lockdown was the result of a nearby situation that involved a man who police said had barricaded himself inside of his home.

Kaneland’s soft lockdown was the result of a power outage caused by a crash, police said.

School districts are not the only entities that could help the community by communicating more externally in such situations.

When an emergency situation is taking place, the media is eager to share available information provided by local police departments, fire departments, government entities and other groups. Why shouldn’t the public know? It is not a blemish on an organization to acknowledge an emergency is ongoing.

Instead, there can be appreciation that officials demonstrate a genuine concern for the well-being of those who care most about their organizations.

ANOTHER VIEW

Bush is right: Big banks need more capital BLOOMBERG VIEW During Tuesday’s presidential debate, Jeb Bush offered one of the clearest policy proposals yet to emerge from the Republican field: Increase capital requirements to reduce the threat that big banks can present to the economy. It’s a great idea.

Capital is often misunderstood, portrayed as some kind of rainyday fund that banks must set aside, or as a sort of punishment for previous misbehavior. Actually, it’s equity that banks get from shareholders – money they can use to make loans and other investments. Unlike debt, it doesn’t have to be paid back, so it has the advantage of absorbing losses.

The more capital banks have, the more capable they are of taking the kinds of risks that make the economy dynamic.

Unfortunately, more than five years after the enactment of the Dodd-Frank financial reform legislation, banks’ capital levels

remain troublingly low. Several of the largest U.S. financial institutions have less than $5 in equity for every $100 in assets, measured according to international accounting standards. That means a net loss of 5 percent would be enough to render them insolvent.

During the last financial crisis, in 2009, the International Monetary Fund estimated U.S. banks’ losses on securities and loans would ultimately amount to more than 8 percent.

Such a thin capital cushion places the interests of shareholders at odds with those of society at large. In good times, using more debt, or leverage, boosts banks’ performance – measured as the return on equity. In bad times, shareholders risk only the meager amount of equity they’ve put in.

Beyond that, the banks’ losses become everyone’s problem, as the distress reverberates through the broader economy and necessitates taxpayer bailouts.

Raising equity requirements

would have benefits far beyond making the system safer. Consider, for example, the concern that Bush and other candidates expressed about “too-big-to-fail” institutions. By increasing shareholders’ responsibility for risk, it could create an incentive for them to divide the banks into more manageable – and potentially more valuable – pieces. That, in turn, could render unnecessary much of the regulatory complexity that Republicans rail against.

More equity could also allow regulators to simplify rules that burden smaller banks, another important issue that Bush raised in the debate. Well-capitalized institutions that don’t get involved in trading and derivatives shouldn’t have to file lengthy reports sorting their assets into myriad risk categories or submit to examinations as frequently as others.

All told, the benefits of boosting banks’ capital so outweigh the costs, the only question is: Why wait for the next president to do it?

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

What up, man?

Get a clue

As a younger person who is paying significant taxes to support those on Social Security, I am really getting sick of hearing the whining this year from Social Security recipients about how they are not going to get a cost of living increase. Get a clue, people. There has not been an increase in the cost of living. In fact, the cost of living has gone down. Therefore, there is no reason to give people a cost of living increase. If reality were held to, you probably would get a cut in your Social Security payment. Of course, if we did that, the whining would be unbearable. Secondly, I want to stop hearing that, “Well, I paid into it, and therefore, I deserve what I’m getting.” Guess what?

You didn’t pay into it. This is a tax.

It is a tax on the people who are working now to support the people who are retired. And you did not pay anywhere near as much as what people are getting. And if the Chronicle has any fact checkers to check this, go right ahead. Most people draw much more than they ever paid in for Social Security. And thirdly, Social Security was not intended to keep people [in] nice single-family homes, cars, cable television. It was intended to keep people out of poverty, out of starvation. If you are getting enough money to get a room in a boarding house and enough money to live on, that’s what it is intended for.

If you want more than that, then you should have saved for yourself.

And if you’re a younger person,

you better save for yourself if you have a clue. Stop whining about how “all I have to live on is Social Security.” Basically, you are living off the people who are working now and paying into the system. And you should realize that, yes, you are one of the people who are getting a government program.

Do your job

I was watching TV and that plane went down, and Obama thinks it was a bomb. They think it was ISIS. Well, Obama, if you would have done your job and got rid of ISIS, we wouldn’t be having problems like this.

Don’t be so tolerant

Arabic is a language that will not be ignored for the future generations in our country. Will our high schools start teaching Arabic? Will we hear, “Press three for Arabic”? I would not move to another country and expect them to learn English.

How selfish that would be. The population of the United States is united under the English language.

If you disagree, I recommend that you get yourself enrolled in Arabic, Spanish and Mandarin. Those three should cover it for now. What a burden on our country to bring in so many cultures and languages. Years back, my grandparents did not have Polish TV or Italian TV. They had to learn English. We were united under Judeo-Christian values. No matter what our problems, we remained united with the goal of one language and one culture. Today, it is all a mess. I feel sorry for the next generation and how tolerant they are forced to be. Don’t be so tolerant. You end up with a chaotic mess and with a divided country.

IHSA GIRLS SWIMMING AND DIVING SECTIONALS: TODAY

NO POOL? IT’S COOL Nomadic Vikings build bond

By KEVIN DRULEY kdruley@shawmedia.com Geneva lacks an on-campus indoor pool and a girls swimming co-op partner, but its contingent of aquatic athletes beams nonetheless.

Today’s St. Charles East Sectional will allow 12 girls to come together to represent their school. At the end of

the lane, isn’t that what’s paramount?

“We definitely are at a disadvantage because we can’t practice as much and we can’t get faster with the high school practices that tend to be more challenging than club practices,” Vikings senior Chelsea Brandt said.

“But I like it because everybody in the school who is on the team has the chance to go to sectionals and we all became really close as a team.”

Qualifying spots for the IHSA state meet at New Trier on Nov. 20 and 21 are there for the seizing, although some among Geneva’s ranks are up front about

their chances in a field that includes the host Saints and reigning Upstate Eight Conference champion St. Charles North.

Shortly after Brandt mentioned her entry in the 50yard freestyle, she was asked where her personal-record time fell in relation to the qualifying cut of 24.5 seconds.

Brandt’s response of 27.5 came with a self-deprecating chuckle but also a strong dose of perspective and resolve.

“I’m not close to state, and if I were to swim with St. Charles or the other schools, I would never have the chance to go to sectionals,” she said. “ But it’s a high-energy meet

Geneva coach Mary Keyzer, a social studies teacher and the school’s co-activities director, relishes the opportunity to aide in the girls’ pool pursuits, a cause that’s in its ninth year.

A former swimmer at Yorkville, Keyzer takes the Vikings to the West Chicago High School pool for about 20 workouts a season. Parents’ fees and funding from Geneva District 304 help subsidize rental costs.

CLASS 4A GIRLS VOLLEYBALL SEMIFINAL – ST. FRANCIS DEF. CARY-GROVE, 25-20, 25-18

ON THE VERGE ... AGAIN

St. Francis one win from Class 4A state championship

By MIKE DeFABO mdefabo@shawmedia.com NORMAL – After three straight girls volleyball state championships in Class 3A, St. Francis has a shot to make it four straight.

This time in 4A. The Spartans defeated CaryGrove, 25-20, 25-18, Friday to advance to the Class 4A state championship match. The 11time state champion Spartans (38-3) will play Glenbard West in the championship match about 8:55 p.m. today at Illinois State’s Redbird Arena.

“We’re sure going to try to make it happen,” St. Francis coach Peg Kopec said. “If that could happen, it would be unbelievable to make history with this group.

“If you stop and think about it, how many people aren’t here and never get the opportunity?

St. Francis’ Kamryn Malloy hits the ball past Cary-Grove’s Alli Splitt.

You have to tell yourself that.

I tell these kids that. You never know when anything can be taken away or something can happen. We are blessed to be able to experience the IHSA’s state tournament.”

Molly Haggerty led the Spar-

tans with 11 kills and Kamryn Mallory added eight. Daniele Messa tacked on 18 assists.

“Since I was a little girl, I used to always come and watch my sisters play when they were at Benet,” Haggerty said. “…

Being a senior and being in a state championship, it’s always been a dream of mine. I couldn’t have done it without the people behind me.”

With the first set tied at 8, St. Francis went on a 7-0 run to take a 15-8 lead. The Trojans responded, however, with a 6-0 run of their own to cut the Spartans’ lead to 15-14.

The Trojans (35-6) again got within one point after Erin Olson’s ace to make it 17-16.

However, the Spartans closed out the first set with three kills from Haggerty, a few CaryGrove errors and, finally, a Mallory kill.

The Trojans were tied with

St. Francis at 6 in the second set, but St. Francis won 12 of the next 15 points to separate itself.

Unforced errors undid the Trojans to a large degree. They committed 25 in the match (11 attack, eight serving and six receiving).

Haggerty said playing on the big stage in previous state tournaments and also in the supersectional against Benet, the 2014 champ in 4A, helped prepare the Spartans for the match.

“I think it takes a little bit of getting used to playing in a place like this, a lot bigger stands, a lot more people here,” Haggerty said. “But I think the Benet game that we played in before this helped us all prepare for what could happen. Playing in a tough game like that got us, not comfortable, but used to a big match like that.”

Looks easy for a reason:

When you see Batavia impose its will on teams and have its way rather easily against what are thought to be strong teams, there’s a reason.

As Piron said, “all the puzzle pieces have fallen into place again,” but it goes beyond that.

“But for it to look as easy as it looks at our school sometimes, a lot of men have to volunteer a lot of time as coaches and a lot of boys have to sacrifice an awful lot of free time instead of doing other things that they maybe would have done if they weren’t here.”

MOOSEHEART – With no practice football fields at Batavia High School – and, by extension, no lights – the Bulldogs have had a friendly neighbor lend assistance for a number of years.

Thursday night was one of a number of practices of the past several years, even before coach Dennis Piron’s current five-year tenure, where the Bulldogs have made the roughtly three-mile drive to Mooseheart to practice on the school’s artificial turf field.

“We have been very lucky to have such a great neighbor in Mooseheart to use this beautiful field for a number of years,” Piron said. “With no practice field, I’m not sure what we would have done otherwise because we have to get on a good surface at some point to get in a good, quality practice.”

From the moment the Bulldogs step off the buses at Mooseheart to the time they leave, it is usually all business, and while there, that “M” for Mooseheart at midfield is viewed in a different way.

“It’s an ‘M,’ ” Piron said, “but we call it the ‘W’ for ‘win.’ ” Piron thinks the practices at Mooseheart only boost what is already an energized group of Bulldogs entering today’s Class 7A quarterfinal against Cary-Grove.

“For what we need to accomplish, these practices are usually always high intensity,” Piron said. “They get the lights on here pretty early now, and when we come here, it amps up everything about our program. The longer we are here, the better we get.

We’re fortunate that we have this opportunity, so we want to make sure to not let it go to waste any time we’re here.”

Thankful for janitors, all other deadline helpers Next to newspapering, the most enjoyable job I ever had involved mopping and waxing floors, scrubbing desks and adding fresh summer coats of yellow industrial paint to no parking zones.

Oh, to be seasonal janitor at my high school alma mater again. The work kept you spry, the pay boosted your college coffers and the hours got you home in time to watch “Jeopardy!”, an especially gratifying late afternoon pastime during Ken Jennings’ magical summer run of 2004.

I knew what I wanted to be when I grew up then, but doubt even a quiz show savant could have foreseen the blissful overlap between my current career and my stopgap one 11 years ago.

Please forgive me for cutting ahead of everyone at the family table, but man, am I thankful for janitors.

It was 10:06 p.m. on Oct. 29 when I started my car in Waubonsie Valley’s parking lot, minutes after our page deadline. I’d arrived some 4½ hours earlier, weaving through rush hour traffic on Eola Road more efficiently than expected.

St. Charles North defeated the host Warriors in three

sets to win a girls volleyball regional somewhere in between, but given the bedlam of conducting interviews with a postseason plaque circulating and the ubiquitous demand of meeting deadline, writing from Aurora’s southeast quadrant was the best bet.

Through it all, Waubonsie Valley’s custodial staff didn’t mind, playing a subtle yet vital role in the small miracle that is putting out a newspaper every night. Naturally, it didn’t take me multiple hours to write the game story, but there certainly was salve in staying put to also edit other stories and offer our copy desk an extra set of eyeballs to proofread pages.

Kane County Chronicle-area girls volleyball teams participated in seven regional finals that night, and we covered five. As matches went final and emails grew viral, I only was asked to move once. Going from a gym foyer table to a counter 10 feet away wasn’t bad. It was even better knowing the crew didn’t see me as a nuisance because they had to be there anyway.

Typically, fast food establishments have served sports journalists as deadline

QUICK READ Kevin Druley havens, their slogans and wireless networks serendipitously extending a comfort zone better than any fourthmeal. A reporter and his or her laptop could reassuringly have it his or her way in a Burger King dining room, so long as it wasn’t after closing time. “I’m lovin’ it,” goes the refrain when such scenarios ring true at McDonald’s.

Sometimes, however, you not only gotta “Live Mas” – Taco Bell’s an underrated spot, by the way – but you gotta file a story with minimal leeway.

I couldn’t laud janitors without also praising the effectiviness of my personal, Chronicle-issued Wifi hotspot. But hey, technology gets enough headlines these days.

Sometimes, too, you gotta call an audible and realize impromptu work conditions can be equally pleasant in the great outdoors. About eight weeks before the North girls volleyball regional, my assignment and Ford Focus

East football hosted Jacobs in an eventual Week 2 loss that featured numerous stoppages.

Ostensibly following the welcoming lead of Norris Stadium press box steward Lee Mirabelli, the East grounds crew extended its hospitality for about as long as it could until it absolutely had to turn the lights out and close up.

An instant ace up my sleeve emerged in Mother Nature and a less-than-bustling parking lot behind the adjacent Norris Center.

No one did so much as question the man who had set his company laptop on the trunk of his car on a pleasant, late summer night until the 11th hour. Well, technically, it was the 23rd hour, moments before our 11:45 p.m. Friday football

“Sir, what are you doing?” an East student asked politely upon being dropped off at her car by friends.

I told her I was with the Chronicle and didn’t have time to head back to the office. The answer seemed to suffice.

Knock on hardwood, but the only cold reception of 2015-16 to date came Nov. 6.

Needing to conserve precious fuel for the long commute home from Kankakee County, I filed a story about Geneva football’s season-ending loss at Bradley-Bourbonnais in my idle and bordering-on-freezing car.

Something tells me the Bradley-Bourbonnais custodians might have offered safe (and warm) harbor in the corner of a fieldhouse, but again, time was of the essence. Besides, those folks also wanted to head home for the evening.

And the McDonald’s on the main drag was just a bit too far away.

Geneva explored the possibility of co-oping with West Chicago before it chose to partner with Batavia.

Geneva casually has corresponded with other programs about other co-op opportunities, but unlike some pool-deck surfaces, there’s been nothing concrete.

“You run into a little situation, too, where the girls like to swim at sectionals but they also like to do their club competitions,” Kafer said. “They’re not sure if they want to give up a club opportunity for a new program that might not be at their same level.”

In February, Keyzer will take a group of Geneva boys to sectionals for the sixth successive season.

Swimming on a program without a home pool doesn’t mean you’re unable to catch on in college.

Nor does it keep athletes of any skill level from enjoying camaraderie.

“It’s so much fun,” Brandt said. “We all get along really well and we play music at

practices, and coach Keyzer is such a great coach. We all just have fun when we’re swimming and we’re working hard.”

Glancing at Keyzer’s long, blonde hair – no longer confined to a swim cap – recently jogged Brandt’s memory.

Turns out the vibrant woman who once gave Brandt swimming lessons at Geneva’s Sunset Pool is the same one who now teaches her psychology and who has served as a fellow lifeguard at Eagle Brook Country club.

Technically, you only can come full-circle in a lazy river or whirlpool, but Keyzer, as always, is eager to lead Brandt and the Vikings to water in any direction.

“They can’t score team points out of it,” she said, “but if they place, they can place.”

this was it, and boy, did I work my share of good and bad games over the course of seven months.

My season started on a chilly weekday afternoon at DundeeCrown on March 19 and ended during a tournament late in the evening of Sunday, Oct. 18, in Huntley. I umpired 300 games in between those two, and what amazed me most is that I was able to work so many games despite some awful weather, especially in the spring. I had six games snowed out and seven canceled because the coaches deemed the weather too cold.

I also had more than a dozen games canceled but never was told a reason why. I also had one game canceled at last minute because the varsity team’s opponent had to bail on them for another rescheduled game. I also had 61 games postponed because of rain. Thanks, Roger Maris.

My 300th game was uneventful, as the visitors scored 10 runs in the first inning and cruised to victory. I can’t even remember who the teams were and I didn’t ask for a game ball to add to my trophy case, either.

Giancarlo Stanton recently became baseball’s first $300 million man.

The handlebar-mustached Rollie Fingers was the first to save 300 games. No one reached 300 home runs before Babe Ruth did. And, while some of you baseball trivia geeks might have known the previous two players, I guarantee you don’t know about some fella named James Francis “Pud” Galvin, who was the first pitcher to win 300 games.

Galvin, who was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1965, was nicknamed “Pud,” because he made hitters “look like pudding.”

Now, I’m not looking for pudding, prizes or a pat on the back, but I thought it would be nice to chime in this fall to let readers know that I did reach my lofty goal of umpiring 300 games this year. I must say it feels good to ump far more games than what I weigh. Well, not far more, but still …

The Chicago Steel enter today’s 7 p.m. home game against the Youngstown (Ohio) Phantoms at Fox Valley Ice Arena in eighth place in the USHL’s nine-team Eastern Conference. Coach Dan Muse’s team has won only four of its first 14 games, but the group’s overall competitiveness has Muse and the rest of the locker room optimistic about making strides throughout the 60-game regular season. Kane County Chronicle sports editor Kevin Druley spoke with Muse, a former Yale assistant in his first year as Steel coach, in the latest edition of the Weekend Chit-chat. Here’s an edited transcript:

How have you and the guys enjoyed setting up camp at home again?

It’s good to be home. Even more so, it’s nice to have a week of practice. … It was tough, because we’re playing five games in eight nights, and there’s stuff that we want to go over, and you can only do so much on the practice days. We’ve got to also understand that it’s a grind. We weren’t playing necessarily up to our potential in a lot of those games, and you’d like to get practices in.

The schedule has a couple other occurrences where you get an extended break. Is that common in the league from

Weekend

CHIT-CHAT DAN MUSE CHICAGO STEEL what you know?

It’s going to be year-toyear. It’s the hand we were dealt this year, so we’ve got to live with it. You’re not changing it. You make it work. …

This is different than college.

The number of games, it’s double. It’s a lot more games.

It’s a lot more games.

How about from the respect of playing some weeknights versus weekends?

College is almost always Friday-Saturday. You get some weekday games here, but this is a lot more Friday-Saturday. Some Sunday.

But you do have some more midweek games at this level than you do in college hockey.

How have you liked the Fox Valley? I understand you’re on the border of two of the Tri-Cities.

I live in St. Charles on the Geneva line, so I live across from Geneva High School.

But it’s in St. Charles, technically, which is kind of odd. ...

I’ve got to remind myself that

I don’t live in Geneva sometimes since I’m looking at a giant Geneva sign every day when I walk out of the house.

What are you looking for out of the club during this month?

I think we’re taking steps in the right direction ... in a lot of different areas, in terms of some big-picture stuff and some more detailed stuff. I think as a staff, were seeing improvements, and that’s, right now, what we’re most concerned with. We want to see growth, and I think we’re seeing it out of a lot of individuals, and we’re also seeing it out of the team as a whole.

So I’m excited to see what we can do here.

Montini football eyes another NI Big 12 East foe

DeKALB – The Montini football team is having a very good season in the middle of a very good decade.

No. 5 DeKalb gets its shot against the unbeaten No. 1 Broncos, who have appeared in the past six state championship games in 5A, when the teams battle at 1 p.m. today in a IHSA Class 6A quarterfinal in DeKalb.

Kaneland was the latest bump on the road for the Broncos this season, as Montini rolled to a 42-7 win in the second round last week.

“We definitely do treat it a little more intense just because it could be a our last game playing and a lot of people hype up Montini to be more than what they are,” DeKalb receiver Tony Tate said. “They’re high school kids just like us. They do the same things we do. They go to school. They’re coached.

They do everything the same as us. We understand they’re a prestigious program but we definitely feel we match their caliber and we’re equals when we step on the field. At the end of the game, we’ll see who’s the better team.”

Preston Zollers of Batavia was among 10 8-year-olds in the nation to be part of an experience of a lifetime. On Oct. 17, Zollers raced the 2015 Monster Energy Cup at Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas, which is a motocross race for professionals and those invited. In March, Zollers took home first place at the KTM Jr Supercross Challenge at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, . A title earned Zollers an invitation to race again for the KTM Jr Supercross Challenge, but this time on the biggest and most anticipated track of the year. The 2015 Monster Energy Cup track is designed by renowned motocross rider Ricky Carmichael. The track consisted of numerous technical turns and jumps, a white sand section and a starting gate that dropped and started the race from a downhill position. When he’s not competing, Zollers works diligently on advancing his motocross skills.

The Broncos’ closest game this season was a 20-17 home win in the opener against Maine South.

Since Week 2, the closest game was a 27-8 home win against St. Francis.

“Montini’s a great team, I’m going to give them that, and we prepare for them harder than any other team just because they have that name, that status,” DeKalb receiver Luke Davis said. “We have to play them

just a little harder than we do anybody else. If we play all four quarters we should come out with a victory.”

NIU is giving fans a chance to cheer on the Huskies in their two November home games for just $30.

For $30, fans will receive a NIU football ticket to Wednesday’s matchup against Western Michigan and seating promotion the 2015 regular-season finale DeKALB – With the Northern versus Ohio on Nov. 24. Kickoff Illinois football team confor the WMU game is at 7 p.m., tending in the race for the Mid-American Conference West while the Ohio contest, which Division title and a return trip to will mark senior day for 13 NIU the MAC Championship game, seniors and the team’s annual

“Awesomesauce: Something that is more awesome than awesome. It is a modifier of your basic awesome into a more awesome version,” according to an online urban dictionary.

Can’t say I’ve ever uttered this expression before, but that changed Tuesday afternoon when my daughter texted me, as she and roughly 2,000 other students sheltered in place during a soft lockdown at Batavia High School on the advice of Batavia police. Police received reports that a man, armed and apparently despondent, had barricaded himself in his home nearby (another 500 students also were in a soft lockdown at nearby Alice Gustafson Elementary School).

During the soft lockdown, no one was allowed to enter or exit the building. Students were allowed to change class-

TALES FROM THE MOTHERHOOD Jennifer DuBose es, but otherwise sheltered in place inside their classrooms roughly until two hours past their normal dismissal time (in the case of the high school), when the situation was deemed safe enough to release them to their parents.

A challenging day for the Batavia community, for sure, but I’m hearing that across the board, school staff really stepped up to make a tough day a little less difficult for our children. Students were permitted to text their parents, and valiant efforts were made to keep them calm and focused on schoolwork, during normal school hours. Later, however, they were encouraged to relax.

Some watched videos and played games, if they didn’t feel like passing the time by doing homework. Holly happily reported that in Mr. Bayer’s cultural studies classroom, an arm-wrestling contest broke out.

“Tell your teacher he’s awesomesauce,” I texted, from my car parked half a block away.

“He said you’re right because he has to deal with a room full of freshman,” she replied. Ah! There is no better balm for a parent’s heart than to know her kid is smiling, in spite of the unknown drama unfolding a few streets away – complete with a SWAT team, and a bevy of news helicopters circling overhead like hungry dogs, that my son volunteered hearing, when he texted. The barricade situation finally was safely resolved a few hours after the students were released,

but I can’t help but wonder about how differently this day might gone, had weapons not been a concern. My thoughts are with everyone affected by this situation, especially the man at the heart of it.

Oddly enough, as I typed this column Wednesday afternoon I received a phone call from Mary Ann Quinlan, a volunteer with Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, a grassroots organization I contacted last month.

Quinlan explained they’re asking parents and others concerned about the level of gun-saturation in our society to contact the White House, to ask President Barack Obama to take executive action to reduce illegal gun trafficking.

All one needs to do to communicate support for this cause, according to Quinlan, is text “OBAMA” to 644-33 on their cellphones. Learn more at

momsdemandaction.org.

It’s all too much to take in, but not for Mr. Bayer, apparently, in spite of his suggestion that he struggled with a room full of freshman as Tuesday afternoon wore on.

Yeah, he may have exaggerated that claim just a bit.

“Wanna see the video?”

Holly asked, grinning, when I finally got the kids home from school Tuesday evening. Yeah, some struggle. In fact, Mr. Bayer actually won the arm wrestling contest, which is what my kid’ll recall when she remembers this day. That’s some good stuff, right there.

Awesomesauce, indeed. He gets an “A” in my book. “A” for awesomesauce.

Cookbook author writes about savory pies for all occasions TOM’S COOKBOOK LIBRARY Tom Witom Veteran cookbook author Ken Haedrich, who made a mark with “Pie,” his widely acclaimed book on sweet pies, expands on the subject in a just-published “Dinner Pies: From Shepherd’s Pies and Pot Pies to Turnovers, Quiches, Hand Pies and More” (Harvard Common Press).

This commendable reference is well organized and filled with solid information – perfect for removing any reservations home cooks might have about pursuing savory pies in their own kitchens.

Strictly speaking, his Tex-Mex Chicken Tortilla Pie (recipe follows) is a pie only in the loosest sense of the word. But don’t let that stop you from making this flavorful “Mexican-style lasagna.”

A note of advice: The recipe

calls for a 9 ½-inch-diameter deep-dish pie pan. We found that a 9-by-13-inch rectangular pan also works well – and accommodates all of the called-for ingredients.

Tex-Mex Chicken Tortilla Pie (Makes 8 servings)

• 9 or 10 soft corn tortillas (5 ½ to 6 inches in diameter) • 3 ½ Tbl. vegetable oil • 1 large onion, finely chopped • 2 garlic cloves, minced • 2 cups chopped cooked chicken • 2 tsp. chili powder • 1 tsp. ground cumin • ½ tsp. smoked paprika • 1 (16-oz.) jar favorite salsa • 1 (15-oz.) container ricotta cheese • 2 ½ cups grated sharp cheddar, Monterey jack or pepper jack cheese • 1 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed • 1 (4-oz.) can chopped green chiles, drained Get out a 9 ½-inch deepdish pie pan and butter

it lightly. Put one of your tortillas on a cutting board and cut it into a large wedge shape that’s about 4 inches wide at the widest point and comes to a point along the opposite side of the tortilla.

Place the wedge in your pan and see how it fits. The wide part should more or less come up to the top edge and the point should be in or near the center. If you like the fit, cut eight more of them – just lay the first one on top of a stack, then cut. Keep the trimmings, because you will need them.

Heat 1 ½ tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Holding one of the tortilla wedges with tongs, warm the wedge in the hot oil for no more than 2 or 3 seconds on each side. Don’t even let go with your tongs; it’s that quick. Position the wedge in the pan as you did earlier, pressing it in snugly. Repeat for the remaining wedges, butting them up against one another to form a pie shell.

Heat one whole tortilla and

lay it in the bottom center, on top of the others. Set aside.

Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the same skillet and heat over medium heat. Stir in the onion and sauté for 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the garlic, chicken, chili powder, cumin and smoked paprika. Stir for another 30 seconds, then add the salsa.

Bring to a simmer, adding salt and pepper to taste. The sauce mixture should not be too thick, because the tortilla layers absorb a lot of liquid, so thin it with a little water, if necessary. Remove from the heat. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese and 2 cups of the cheddar.

Mix gently with a fork, adding salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup cheddar in the pie shell.

To assemble the pie, spoon half of the chicken mixture into the shell. Smooth it out, then cover it with a

loose single layer of tortilla trimmings, using about half of them. Top the trimmings with all of the corn and the chiles, spreading them evenly. Dollop half of the ricotta mixture here and there over that. Cover the cheese with another loose layer of tortilla trimmings. Top them with the remaining chicken mixture, then the rest of the ricotta mixture.

Cover the pie with foil, tented up so it doesn’t press against the cheese. Bake for 45 minutes on the center oven rack, then remove the foil and continue to bake for 5 to 10 minutes more. Don’t be surprised if the filling doesn’t juice up and bubble; the tortillas will absorb much of the liquid. Transfer to a rack and cool for at least 20 minutes before serving.

30 Adults should drink low-fat

milk to avoid excess calories Note to readers: This column is an update of one that originally appeared in July 2012.

Dear Dr. K: My parents made us drink milk every day, and I’ve continued that as an adult. A friend just told me that adults don’t need milk, and that it can even be bad for you.

What’s the truth?

Dear Reader: Like you, we always had milk when I was a kid. In fact, the coming of the milkman to deliver the milk at home (remember him?) was an important event each day. These days, I have milk on cereal, but I don’t drink it by the glass. As with most things, there are both benefits and risks.

The benefits: Milk is a good source of protein, calcium and vitamin D (in the United States, most milk is fortified with vitamin D). An 8-ounce serving of milk has approximately 8 to 9 grams of protein, 300 milligrams of calcium and 100 IU of vitamin D. Growing kids need it, for sure. And it’s one way for adults to meet the recommended daily requirements for protein, calcium and vitamin D. However, there are also risks to making milk your favorite beverage, especially if it’s whole milk: • Excess fat and calories. An 8-ounce serving of whole milk has 8 grams of fat (more than half of which are unhealthy saturated fat) and 150 calories.

• Dangerously high blood calcium levels.

People who drink a lot of milk and also consume excessive amounts of calcium-containing antacids or high-calcium foods are at risk for high blood calcium levels. This can occasionally lead to kidney stones and other health problems.

• Milk allergies. These are much more common in children. However, recent studies found that

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff up to 4 percent of adults report symptoms that could reflect milk allergy, ranging from stomach trouble to eczema. In most cases, though, milk allergy has not been confirmed by formal testing.

• Possible increased risk of certain diseases.

There is some evidence that high dairy intake may be associated with prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, Type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis.

• Some people have a condition called lactase deficiency. When they drink milk or eat other dairy products, they get abdominal pains, bloating, diarrhea, vomiting and other unpleasant symptoms.

For me, the bottom line is “all things in moderation.” If you like milk, try using low-fat or nonfat varieties. Whole milk has about 3 percent fat. Moreover, much of that fat is “bad fat” – saturated fat. Skim milk has essentially no fat.

Most stores carry both 2 percent and 1 percent fat milk, as well. So you have four choices.

Maybe you’ve tried skim milk and don’t like the taste. That was my experience. But when I tried 2 percent milk, I thought it tasted pretty good. So after using that for several months, I switched to 1 percent milk – and that tasted pretty good, too.

That’s what I use now.

When I was a kid, I remember a television commercial that said, “You never outgrow your need for milk.” That’s not the case. On the other hand, I can’t imagine cereal without milk.

• Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

Women make up 65 percent of teachers in the United States Dr. Wallace: I’d like to become a high school teacher, but I’m not going to because of their low salaries.

One teacher, a male, tells me that teachers’ salaries are low because the majority of them are female.

Is that the main reason teachers are paid peanuts? – Calvin, Tampa, Florida Galvin: Yes, most teachers

are women.

They make up 65 percent of U.S. and 68 percent of Canadian teaching ranks, according to the National Education Association. But that’s not the reason teaching salaries are below those of other professionals.

The problem is that their salaries are funded mainly from taxes paid by local property owners within the school district boundaries, who understandably resist all increases in their taxes.

Teachers deserve more money, but won’t get it until schools get a different source of primary funding. Public school teachers, both male and female, receive identical salaries in the same school district.

The amount of a teacher’s salary depends on the number of years teaching and the number of college or univer-

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace sity degrees the teacher has earned.

A teacher with a master’s degree and five years of teaching experience would earn more than a teacher with a bachelor’s degree and also with five years of teaching experience.

I hope you change your mind and become a distinguished high school teacher.

Very few dedicated educators give up the teaching profession because of the pay scale.

Teens: Every year, according to the American Social Health Association, more than 3 million U.S. teens are infected with a sexually transmitted disease – a shocking 25 percent of all STD victims in the country.

I mention this sobering and startling fact just to remind young people that they are not invulnerable, and that becoming sexually active can have devastating consequences. Girls are more susceptible to STD infections, and less likely to notice symptoms because of their anatomy.

The consequences for girls

are more severe and include infertility, cervical cancer and birth defects in their newborn children.

Unwanted pregnancies and the likelihood of post-encounter depression are two more arguments for abstinence.

The good news is that most teens are not sexually active.

According to a University of Michigan study, 58 percent of teens, ages 17 and younger, are still virgins.

Dr. Wallace: I’m 19 and my brother is 15. I’m really worried about him because he seems to have no interest in girls. All he ever thinks about is athletics and hanging around with his buddies.

When I was his age, I had a steady boyfriend and had been dating for more than 4 months. Is there anything wrong with my brother? And if there is, what can I do to help him? – Nameless, Lake

Charles, Louisiana Nameless: There is nothing

wrong with your brother.

Therefore, there is nothing you need to do to help him except to leave him alone and stop worrying about him.

Believe me, when he’s ready, he’ll do his thing.

PUZZLES SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

A trump promotion may be in the cards

CELEBRITY CIPHER

P.T. Barnum said, “Without promotion, something terrible happens ... nothing!”

In the circus business, that is no doubt true. But at the bridge table, if one side gains a trump promotion, it is terrible only for the other side.

In this deal, South is in four spades.

West leads the diamond two. South wins with dummy’s ace and plays the spade jack. East takes that trick and leads the diamond king. How should South continue?

Over East’s one-diamond opening, many players would overcall three spades with that South hand – and it would be a reasonable choice. But four spades has a lot going for it, being more inconvenient to the opponents, perhaps making it impossible for them to uncover a big heart fit. Also, remember, bid more with seven-four.

It is easy for declarer to be careless in this deal, assuming a favorable spade break and believing he will lose only two spades and one heart.

Suppose South ruffs the second diamond with the spade nine. West overruffs with the 10 and shifts to a heart.

East takes that trick and leads another diamond, which promotes a third trump trick for West’s eight.

If South ruffs the second diamond with the spade queen or king, he again loses three trump tricks.

As no doubt you have noticed, at trick three, South should not ruff at all; he should discard his singleton heart to cut the defenders’ communications.

When declarer ruffs the third diamond with the spade nine, yes, West overruffs, but South takes the rest by winning the next trick and drawing trumps.

diagnosis of a life-threatening illness can make a marriage stronger or it can destroy it.

While I’m reluctant to attribute a reason for what your wife did without hearing from her, I can’t help but think that she left because the cancer made her realize how short life is and, as much as you loved her, the marriage wasn’t a fulfilling one for her.

Angela is my best friend and I’d do anything for her.

I don’t want to string her along, but I’m not sure if what I’m experiencing is just cold feet.

Next year I will be in medical school through the military.

are you are putting this pressure on yourself now?

Because you are unsure, you should leave for medical school. Once you are there, you will be immersed in your studies and you will also meet others.

If your feelings for Angela are as strong as they are now after six months, revisit the idea of proposing marriage.

But don’t do it now if in your heart you’re looking for a woman with qualities Angela doesn’t possess, because it would be unfair to both of you.

Dear Abby: When reading letters in your column concerning breast cancer, my heart goes out to every single person who has ever been diagnosed with this terrible disease. I have no respect for any man who cuts and runs when his wife is diagnosed with cancer.

But what do you think about a woman who is diagnosed and whose husband remains with her through the fear and worry, the chemo, radiation, hair loss and all the follow-up? A husband who worries constantly for her and whose biggest fear is losing his wonderful wife, and after all this – she leaves him for another man?

It has been more than seven years. I’m asking for feedback in the hope that people can view this issue not just from my perspective, but also from the afflicted loved one’s perspective as well. – Still
