Are you running in the April 7 election? As part of the Kane County Chronicle’s ongoing coverage of the upcoming elections, I have been contacting candidates about questionnaires for our Election Central website. Election Central is a regular feature that the Chronicle puts together during election season. It includes biographical information about candidates running in contested races, as well as answers to our questionnaires. Contacting the candidates can be a challenge, as – in the age of the cellphone – not everyone has a listed telephone number in the residential White Pages. In addition, it’s not always easy to track down an email address for a candi-
EDITOR’S NOTEBOOK Kathy Gresey date, which we prefer to use when sending out information about our questionnaire process, as it’s quicker than using the U.S Postal Service. If you are a candidate running in any of the following consolidated election races and have not yet heard from me about Election Central, I’m requesting that you contact me with your phone number and email address, so I can send you information about our questionnaire. It will help voters learn about why you
are running in the April 7 election.

bschory@shawmedia.com and CHARLES MENCHACA cmenchaca@shawmedia.com A 23-year-old Geneva woman was one of three people arrested in Canada, accused of planning what was to be a public shooting on Valentine’s Day in Halifax, Canadian police said in a statement Friday. The statement indicated that, on Thursday morning, information came forward to police regarding “a potential significant weapons-related threat.” A Halifax Regional Police investigation led to
the Geneva woman and a 19-year-old man from Timberlea, a community within the province of Nova Scotia, Canada. Police said the two had access to firearms, and their intention was “to go to a public venue in the Halifax region today with a goal of opening fire to kill citizens, and then themselves.” Evidence also suggested two other men, ages 20 and 17, of Halifax and Cole Harbour, respectively, were involved, but their role is still to be determined as part of the investigation, according to Canadian police.
The 19-year-old was found dead early Friday morning at his house in Timberlea, police said. The 20-year-old and the Geneva suspect were arrested at 2 a.m. Friday at the Halifax Stanfield International Airport, police said. Shortly after 11 a.m. Friday, police arrested the 17-year-old at a Cole Harbour residence, police said. The names of those involved are not being released at this time, police said. Geneva police assisted the Halifax Regional Police Department in Canada on Friday regarding the Geneva woman arrested there.

Squirrels vs. rabbits – following the footsteps GOOD NATURED Pam Erickson Otto If you happen to live on the edge of a grassy expanse, or in a newer subdivision where shrubs abound but trees are small, chances are you have rabbits. Eastern cottontail rabbits, that is, Sylvilagus floridanus. If your house is in the woods, surrounded by mature and, ideally, nut-bearing, trees, you probably have an abundance of squirrels, either the smaller gray, Sciurus carolinensis, or the larger fox, Sciurus niger. Or both! However, if you live in an area with mixed vegetation – namely lawns, shrubs and tall trees – you are quite likely to have ample numbers of rabbits and squirrels alike. The great thing about these common mammals is that, even if you’ve never picked up a field guide, you can tell the difference between the two. (Thank you, Beatrix Potter, Peter Rabbit and Squirrel Nutkin.) But – here’s the tricky part: Can you distinguish between their tracks? You’d think it would be simple, given the major differences in appearance and habits between the animals themselves. Big ears and cottony white tail vs. small ears and a long fluffy tail. Ground dwelling vs. tree dwelling. Lagomorph vs. rodent. Illustrations in tracking books would seem to reaffirm these differences. Squirrel feet, as depicted in black-and-white drawings, have prominent pads with four toes on each fore foot and five toes on each hind foot. Rabbits, meanwhile, have feet that are fully furred; even drawings in books tend to lack details and distinct toes. Next time you’re outside though, take a look around. The tracks of these two very different types of animals are surprisingly similar – especially in deep snow like we have now.

Squirrel prints are pictured (left) next to prints from a rabbit. If you were to draw an outline around the “SQuirrel” tracks, you’d find them to be “SQuare-ish” in shape, while rabbit tracks form an approximation of a Y, as in “bunnY.” This seeming sameness is because of the fact both animals, moving at a normal pace, are hoppers. Or, in trackers’ parlance, gallopers. As they move forward, their front feet come down first, and their hind feet follow. If you’ve ever played leapfrog, you’ve done the same. Instead of looking at the individual prints, it’s best to look at overall patterns. When a squirrel hops and lands, its larger back feet land parallel, and just a little in front of its smaller front feet, which also land side by side. The resulting shape is square-ish. Rabbits, on the other hand, tend to land with one forefoot in front of the
other. This “line” of two fore prints behind the two larger hind prints looks kind of like the letter Y. You can remember it this way: SQuirrels leave SQuare tracks, while Ys are the mark of the bunnY. It’s also helpful to take a look at the track pattern as a whole, taking note of where it started and where it leads. Does it go from tree to tree? Then it’s most likely from a squirrel. Does it linger near and under the cover of tall grasses and shrubs (or, as was the case for my friend Lisa, patio furniture)? That sort of pattern would indicate rabbit. If you’re still uncertain which animal’s tracks you’re

following, look for these additional signs: Scat: Rabbit scat consists of round pellets about the size of a plump pea. One or two might appear along the tracks as a rabbit hops along; you may find a collection of them deposited under bent-over grasses or the low-hanging branches of trees and shrubs – areas where the animal spent a considerable amount of time resting and staying out of sight. Squirrel scat is smaller and oblong, roughly the size and shape of pine nuts. It is deposited randomly, sometimes near a favorite feeding spot but it really can appear just about anywhere. I’ve found squirrel scat on tree stumps, picnic tables and one, to my chagrin, on a pair of shoes I’d left outside to dry. Gnaws and chews: Even though they are not classified as rodents (because of, among other features, a set of “peg” teeth, directly behind their top incisors) rabbits are well adapted to gnawing. They will chomp away at stems protruding from the snow, leaving sharp, angled edges (as opposed to the raggedy, shredded edges left by deer). Rabbits also will consume the tender bark on shrubs and young trees. Though they’re there now,
these signs will become even more noticeable as the snow begins to melt. Squirrels, on the other hand, don’t gnaw on bark so much as nuts and seeds – and, as you may have found this past holiday season – the wires of Christmas lights strung on trees. Acorns or walnuts chewed in half are definite signs of squirrel feeding activity. Nests or drays: Although tree cavities are preferred, squirrels also will make their homes inside leafy nests known as drays. These structures, which consist of leaves and twigs woven together, typically are located near the tops of trees and can measure a foot or more in diameter. As a hedge against storm damage, parasite invasions and other hazards of life in the wild, squirrels tend to maintain at least two “homes” at any given time. Consequently, not every dray is occupied at every given moment.

COVER STORY
HAPPY TOGETHER After cancer diagnosis, Batavia couple no longer stressing about the small stuff LEFT: Marla and Michael Folkerts are pictured in July 1994, two years before they married. The two met when they were students at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana.
By CHARLES MENCHACA cmenchaca@shawmedia.com BATAVIA – Michael and Marla Folkerts each can remember the exact date they became more than friends – May 1, 1994. That was the day the then-undergrad students went on a walk on Taylor University’s campus in Upland, Indiana, to talk about how they felt about each other. “I was hoping that he’d say that he liked me – good thing he did,” Marla Folkerts said. Nearly 20 years later, the Folkerts are married and still going strong in Batavia. Their family includes two boys, Jayden, 8, and Jonathan, 6. The Folkerts’ are one of countless couples planning to celebrate Valentine’s Day today. Since Marla Folkerts also has a shift today at her nursing job, the Folkerts got a head start on their celebration with a date lunch Tuesday at Altiro Latin Fusion restaurant, 308 Anderson Blvd., Geneva. The couple started off as friends and met in a music theory class. Marla Folkerts thought her future husband was conceited, but he explains that he already took the class elsewhere and came off as a know-it-all. Marla Folkerts dropped out of music, but they ended up spending time together because she remained in the school band and he was a music major. After the May 1, 1994 walk, the pair officially began dating. A little more than a year later, the pair knew things were serious and heading toward marriage. Marla Folkerts believed her future husband when he said he didn’t have enough money to buy a ring until after they graduated from Taylor. That ended up being a lie so he could make a surprise proposal to her in August 1995

I don’t care if he buys me roses or not. I’d rather just spend time with him because you never know how long you are going to have together.” Marla Folkerts of Batavia
for her birthday when she came to visit him in Illinois. Michael Folkerts said he got down on one knee at the rose garden at Glos Memorial Park in his hometown of Elmhurst. He knew about the picturesque site because he worked for the Elmhurst Park District during his college summers. So why did Michael Folkerts fall in love with his wife? He said it was because of her kind nature and that she laughs at his jokes. She agrees with this, saying that he can make her laugh even when she was angry at him. Michael Folkerts also has
a knack for singing to his wife in public. When they were dating, he remembers standing on top of a dining commons table on campus and singing a number from the musical “West Side Story.” In 2000, he came to her Ohio workplace with his honors singing group to sing telegrams as a fundraiser. “She loved it, but she gets embarrassed easily,” Michael Folkerts said. ••• Since their Aug. 3, 1996, wedding, the Folkerts said they have had their share of arguments. A shocking diagnosis during summer 2014,
however, served as a wake-up call for the both of them. During a credentialing process for his work as nurse anesthetist, Michael Folkerts learned he had non-Hodgkin’s follicular lymphoma. He describes the disease as a cancer that grows at a slow rate. With no outward symptoms, Michael Folkerts was advised that there wasn’t an advantage to treating this specific form of lymphoma early. He praised his wife for giving him space and being gracious with him as he wrestled with a range of emotions after the diagnosis. “She’s going to stay by my side through the whole thing – I can’t ask for any more than that,” Michael

Folkerts said of his wife. As he continues to be in good health, Michael Folkerts said he can almost forget at times about the lymphoma. He and his wife have learned not to stress about any smaller problems that come between them. “I don’t care if he buys me roses or not,” Marla Folkerts said. “I’d rather just spend time with him because you never know how long you are going to have together.”

Elgin Community College honor society to open food pantry By ASHLEY SLOBODA asloboda@shawmedia.com ELGIN – After months of planning and preparations, a group of Elgin Community College students will celebrate the grand opening of the Spartan Food Pantry. “I don’t think they realized what an undertaking it would be,” said Amybeth Maurer, the Phi Theta Kappa honor society adviser. Karina Nava, the organization’s service officer, said the idea to start a food pantry on campus was carried over from last year’s officer team, which explored poverty. Bringing the idea to fruition included a lot of research, a presentation to the college president and trustees and renovations to an unused corner of a conference room, Nava said. “It has kind of taken over these past few months,” she said of the commitment. A grand opening celebration is planned for 10 a.m. to noon Tuesday, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony set for 10:15 a.m. It will be in Room B175.01 on the Elgin campus at 1700 Spartan Drive. The pantry will serve ECC students with a valid ID, Nava said, noting they must complete an application and waiver. Hours are 10 a.m. to noon Monday, 1 to 3 p.m. Wednesday and 5 to 7 p.m. Thursday during the school year, she said. “[We] had a student in already yesterday asking

about it,” Maurer said Friday. Donations will be accepted any time at the student life office in room B173, Nava said. She said monetary donations also are accepted; checks should be made out to the Elgin Community College Foundation and have “Spartan Food Pantry” in the memo line. Although the food pantry is operated by Phi Theta Kappa, the honor society has received support from other campus groups, such as those for faculty and retirees, Maurer said. “It seems like the whole campus supports the idea and wants to be involved,” she said.

Horse found dead, bound in Campton Township By ASHLEY SLOBODA asloboda@shawmedia.com CAMPTON TOWNSHIP – Kane County authorities are trying to find the owner of a horse that was found dead and bound on a snow-covered driveway last week in Campton Township. “We tried to contact anyone we could related to that property, but it is a vacant property, so we couldn’t go that far with it,” Kane County Animal Control Administrator Brett Youngsteadt said. An Animal Control warden, along with a Kane County sheriff’s deputy and Campton Township Highway District personnel, responded Feb. 6 to the 44W100 block of Beith Road after a passing motorist saw the deceased animal, according to a Kane County Sheriff’s Office report.

lying in the snow was not completely frozen, so officials believed it might have been placed there in the past few hours. Tire tracks in the snow and roadway indicated a vehicle had pulled slightly east of the driveway and backed in before leaving westbound toward Route 47, according to the report. The horse, which had a small white patch on its head, appeared malnourished, was dirty and had matted hair, according to the report. Its front and rear legs were reportedly bound, and a rope that was wrapped

over its neck pulled a set of legs toward the body. There were no visible injuries, according to the report. The Campton Township Highway District removed the horse from the property, according to the report. Youngsteadt said an investigation is pending. “We’re limited because we don’t have an owner,” he said, noting Animal Control is keeping a “close eye on the situation.” Those with information may call Animal Control at 630-232-3555 or the sheriff’s office at 630-232-6840 and ask for investigations.

Miller led the girls around the facility, taking them to the activity room and other common areas before showing them to the Alzheimer’s section.
“They’ll be so happy to see you,” Miller said. With many carnations left to give, the girls then went door-to-door under Miller’s guidance. The Scouts left
flowers outside the doors of those not home and briefly talked with those who were. “See,” Miller said as they left one woman’s room, “you girls made her day.”

ST. CHARLES – Girl Scouts from Lily Lake Grade School left no door unchecked Friday as they sought to wish the residents of Bickford of St. Charles a happy early Valentine’s Day. Clad in pinks and reds, the four fifth-graders of Troop 483 greeted the senior citizens with smiles, carnations and – when asked – a song. Among the smiles and thanks they got in return, one resident broke into a dance. He later met them in the hallway, offering his own valentine gift – mini Nestle Crunch bars and other chocolates. “Oh, they’ve been waiting for them,” Bickford life enrichment coordinator Mary Ann Miller said of the residents’ anticipation for the Girl Scouts. Tracy Crary, who leads the troop with Jan Buckley, said the intent was to put a smile on the residents’ faces. The troop previously visited Bickford for Christmas activities, Buckley said. “We missed Christmas, so here we are for Valentine’s Day,” Buckley said. The troop’s Valentine’s Day surprise was aided by the Jewel-Osco in South Elgin, which donated the red, white and pink flowers. Manager Katie Hanus said the

Government consolidation might be coming to counties across the state. Gov. Bruce Rauner signed Executive Order 15-15 to form the new Local Government Consolidation and Unfunded Mandate Task Force, headed by Wheaton resident and Lt. Gov. Evelyn Sanguinetti during a news conference Friday at the DuPage Water Commission in Elmhurst. Rauner called it an “exciting step toward turning our state around.” “We need to encourage the streamlining of local governments and of school districts to reduce costs and be good stewards of taxpayer dollars,” he said. “The [task force] will get the conversation started on how to streamline [and] end duplicative services and improve efficiency.” DuPage County Board Chairman Dan Cronin, who said he will play a leadership role in the task force, spoke at the news conference, calling DuPage a laboratory for consolidation. The county projects more than $100 million in savings from its Accountability, Consolidation and Transparency Initiative, which Cronin started in 2010. While Cronin said the county’s approach to consolidation isn’t one-size-fitsall, he believes its principles could be transferred statewide. “Imagine the savings if we

could repeat that success story in 100 other counties throughout Illinois,” Cronin said. Rauner said the government contraction would have to come without compromising the important services local districts provide. The governor’s order comes days before he will present his budget proposal to the General Assembly in the face of massive debt and revenue problems. He said cutting spending would play only a part in his efforts to reform Illinois. “As I’ve said, we need to grow our way out of our problems,” he said. “We can’t just cut our way out of our problems. Purely cutting alone without structural, pro-growth reform won’t get us there.” Sanguinetti said the governor would appoint 15 representatives from across the state to
the task force in the next month. The group will lead a study to determine which agencies and unfunded mandates to recommend the governor examine. The task force will be required to submit its findings to the governor and the General Assembly by Dec. 31, at which time it will be dissolved, according to a news release from the governor’s office. Illinois averages nearly 54 units of local government per 100,000 residents, Sanguinetti said. She said too many layers of local government aids corruption and heightens taxes. Consolidation efforts will be a big part of the future of Illinois, according to Sanguinetti. “Every dollar we save is a dollar that goes back into the pocketbooks of our taxpayers,” she said.

Geneva couple celebrates 76th Valentine’s Day By BRENDA SCHORY bschory@shawmedia.com GENEVA – When Joseph Nigrelli met his wife, Dorothy, it was love at first sight. He was at the Eagles Club in Milwaukee in 1938, the week between Christmas and New Year. Jazz singer and band leader Cab Calloway was performing. “We did the fox trot and a waltz,” said Joseph Nigrelli, 102. His wife, Dorothy, 98, said they both went to the club because it booked well-known orchestras and bands every weekend. And while her husband was head-over-heels immediately, Dorothy described her feelings as “like at first sight,” which later became love. They married a year later, on Dec. 26, 1939. Today, the Nigrellis are sharing their 76th Valentine’s Day together. They live in the same room at Bria of Geneva, formerly Geneva Nursing and Rehabilitation, where activity direc-

my brother and I remember any bad arguments. They have always been a very, very close couple. I personally think their closeness and interdependency contribute to their longevity.” Zapelak said her parents’ closeness is intense. “They really have a motive to keep on living – you can’t separate these two,” Zapelak said. “My mother says to my dad, ‘Joe, don’t leave me.’ He’s afraid to die, he’s got so much pressure on him to stay alive. He’s 102. Somebody’s got to go sometime, but maybe not my parents. They are going to outlive Jim and I.”

sponsored by Worldwide Marriage Encounter, spokesman Dick Baumbach said. They basked in the recognition, as age and infirmity was no barrier to their continued devotion. “We get along pretty good,” Dorothy said. “We didn’t argue much,” Joseph added. “I only love one right now – Dee.” The couple lived primarily in Milwaukee, and raised two children, said their daughter Jeanne Zapelak, 70, of Sugar Grove. Her brother James,
73, lives in Georgia. Zapelak said some of her mother’s Irish ancestors came to Batavia in 1849 during the potato famine, so the family has roots in Kane County. Her mother was very involved in the community in Milwaukee, Zapelak said. “She was not a bored housewife. She was PTA president, Girl Scout and Brownie leader, Cub Scout leader and very involved in the League of Women Voters,” Zapelak said. “She hand-braided wool rugs that won prizes in many areas.” “They are a very, very happily married couple,” Zapelak said. “I don’t think

Five things to know about medical marijuana The medical marijuana pilot program process continues to make progress in Illinois. The registration program has been underway since September, and potential patients can continue to apply. And now, with the state approving medical marijuana dispensaries in St. Charles and North Aurora, more details are starting to emerge. Here are five things you
might want to know about the program: 1. It’s not like Colorado. Illinois’ Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program Act allows for the use of marijuana to alleviate a patient’s debilitating medical condition or symptoms associated with such a condition. That means it’s for those suffering from cancer, glaucoma, AIDS, Alzheimer’s disease,
Crohn’s syndrome, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease and other afflictions listed as serious medical conditions. In Colorado, marijuana can be obtained legally for recreational purposes. That won’t be the case here. At least not at this time. 2. It’s not enough to simply have a qualifying medical condition. Those interested have to apply. The application
process can be explored at https://medicalcannabispatients.illinois.gov. 3. Qualifying patients will be able to possess up to 2.5 ounces of medical marijuana for use in a 14-day period. 4. It has been lucrative in Colorado. A recent Washington Post analysis from Colorado’s Department of Revenue showed that Colorado retailers sold $386 million
of medical marijuana and $313 million of recreational marijuana. 5. News reports suggest that Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner has been concerned about the medical marijuana process. He also has stated he would have vetoed the legalization of medical marijuana. It wouldn’t appear he is eager to push for expansion of the program.
ANOTHER VIEW
Internet law and order THE WASHINGTON POST In the war over net neutrality, it’s clear where the country should end up. Americans should pay for the bandwidth they consume, and they should consume any legal content they want, without interference from the network operators that transport the packets of information into their homes. That’s not just the way to maintain the free flow of information and services on which the Internet thrives, but it’s also the way to encourage service providers to improve their networks, rather than just manage traffic on their existing wires. But government efforts to create a policy environment in which that aim is achieved have been erratic and – lately – the subject of intense controversy. That has led the Federal Communications Commission toward approving a net-neutrality plan that carries some serious collateral risks. It would be better if Congress finally did its job and agreed on a legislated plan that avoids more bureaucratic wrangling. The FCC has been trying to impose net-neutrality regulations for half a decade, only to be stymied by skeptical judges and counterproductive political pressures. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit slapped down the agency’s approach last year. At first, it appeared the FCC would redraft largely identical rules that judges might find legally acceptable. Then Chairman Tom Wheeler contemplated a “hybrid” compromise plan more to the liking of
THE FIRST AMENDMENT
net-neutrality advocates. But after President Barack Obama pressed him to go further, Wheeler proposed a more radical overhaul of broadband regulations. Now Wheeler’s plan is to reclassify broadband providers as common carriers under Title II of the Communications Act – a legal designation that currently applies to firms such as old-school telephone companies. That would expose broadband providers to a new world of federal regulation. Under the plan, the agency would choose not to enforce many of the most onerous Title II regulations, such as forcing cable companies to let any would-be Internet service provider use the wires they installed to sell its own Internet-access service. But the industry worries that future FCC commissioners would expand regulatory scope, given the opportunity. But in some respects, reclassification would limit regulators, as well as the cable companies. It’s very likely that the Federal Trade Commission would be unable to conduct investigations and enforce actions in the broadband business, as it has done on issues such as broadband “throttling” – limiting customers’ connections – and consumer privacy. Consumer advocates should be wary of forcing the FTC to surrender its authority. Sen. John Thune, R-South Dakota, and Rep. Fred Upton, R-Michigan, have proposed a net-neutrality bill, but it has little chance of becoming law because it strips the FCC of some useful regulatory authorities. That shouldn’t be the end of the legislative discussion.

mend the snow plow drivers for the excellent job they did on the streets in our area during the big storm. By the time I went out to plow at 4:45 Monday morning, our street was plowed curb to curb. That brings me to the second caller who complained that I, or someone like me, is rude because, when necessary, we are out snow blowing at 5 or 5:30 a.m. I would love to be home to snow plow in the middle of the day, but I must be cleaned up, professionally dressed and at my desk at 7 a.m. Last Monday’s snow plowing took me 1½ hours. I live on a corner. The students who catch the bus on my corner at 7 a.m. appreciate the sidewalks being cleared, so they don’t have to walk on the street. And the dog walkers appreciate the cleared sidewalks, even though I don’t have a dog myself. This is only the second time this year that I’ve had to snow blow so early in the morning. So, I am rude? You betcha. But since the caller has never volunteered to clear my sidewalk or driveway, I guess I’ll just continue to make my snow blower convenient to everyone else.

I want to comment on some of the Sound Offs in the past Saturday’s paper. First of all, “A new law.” We know, of course, everybody doesn’t stop in the winter. Sometimes, they skid. There’s no new law, of course, about not stopping at a red light or a stop sign. It’s just being facetious. Also, somebody mentioned how Geneva got their snow cleared right away, and St. Charles can learn something from them. I think Batavia needs to call them, too. My road, which is the main entrance into a subdivision, wasn’t plowed. A grocery store on Randall Road? Everything is on Randall. We have plenty of grocery stores on Randall Road. We don’t need another grocery store there. Put one on the east side. OK, Batavia on the money for whatever they are getting that money for. ... I’ve been living in this town for 20 years. Let’s get a new mayor. Now, on the snow blowing at 5 or 5:30 in the morning … it only happens in the winter. People need to get to work. Deal with it. It’s winter. We have to do what we can do. And if you don’t like it, why don’t you offer to snow blow later on, but people had to get out of their driveway. My time is probably up.

St. Charles North lives off smoking start against Larkin By JAY SCHWAB
Upstate Eight River Division standings
jschwab@shawmedia.com ELGIN – St. Charles North boys basketball coach Tom Poulin described Friday’s game at Larkin as one of “four conference championship games,” referring to the likelihood that North needed to win all four of its remaining Upstate Eight Conference River games to share the conference title. That championship sense of purpose was evident early as North seized immediate control of the game and fought off Larkin’s rally to defeat the Royals, 61-53. North led, 25-8, after a blistering opening quarter. “We were just playing hard, man-man-to-man defense,” North senior forward Jack Callaghan said. “We denied their screens, we were shooting gaps and then we got all the rebounds and weren’t letting them get second chances, and then we just got out in transition. … We were hot, so that always helps, but it all started with our defense.” Callaghan made all three of his first quarter shots but it was a corner, 3-pointer with 1:57 to play in the game that provided the greatest satisfaction. The hard-charging Royals had closed within 49-45 and energized the home crowd before Callaghan rewarded Jake Ludwig’s feed with the momentum-halting trifecta. “To be real honest, it’s a shot I don’t mind them getting in the situation,” Larkin coach Deryn Carter said. “We’re playing fast, he’s been playing a lot of minutes. That’s just a big-time shot. He hit a bigtime shot. You can tell by his reaction and what he said to our fans that he knew it was a big-time shot. He was proud of what he did, and he probably should have been.” The first two quarters were near polar opposites for North, which made 9 of its first 10 field-goal attempts to start the

St. Charles North’s Jack Callaghan scores on a drive to the hoop Friday during the first quarter against Larkin in Elgin. The North Stars won, 61-53. game and feasted on nine Larkin turnovers in the opening quarter to romp to its large lead. “I think we came out fast and caught them by surprise in the first,” North sophomore forward Griffin Hammer said. But Larkin’s trapping defense took hold in the second quarter. The North Stars needed a banked-in 3-pointer at the buzzer from Callaghan to eke out five points for the quarter after posting 25 in the first, taking a 30-19 lead into the
break. Poulin wasn’t surprised the game took a bumpy turn. “We felt like we could use our defense to generate some early offense and transition, and we were able to do that early,” Poulin said. “And then they took that away from us, and it was just you need to battle and you need to show some heart and you need to be tough. I thought our kids did that. “On the road in this place, it’s never easy. I was really
proud of our heart and our effort. I feel like our execution and our IQ could have been a little better. We’re still getting to where we want to get to. It’s still the process, and the final test is that regional.” Callaghan thought over-dribbling was a main culprit as Larkin began chipping away at North’s lead. “We let them set up their press, and that’s what killed us because they got a lot of tipped balls, loose balls and then they got out in transition,”

Callaghan said. “ … We were dribbling too much. We didn’t pass it enough, we dribbled too much and I’m as guilty of it as anybody. We just had to pass it more, and that’s what we did in the second half.” The North Stars, who beat the Royals by 13 when the teams met in St. Charles, were led offensively by Callaghan (16 points, nine rebounds), Hammer (14) and guard Mikey Schroeder (13), who hit a key, turnaround shot in the lane to put the North Stars up, 49-44, with 2:52 left in the game. Larkin forward Christian Negron scored 14 points with seven rebounds and two blocks while guard D’Montrelle Mardis added 12 for the Royals. Negron came off the bench as the Royals tweaked their starting lineup on a night when Carter said internal “adversity” complicated the outlook. Regardless of the nontraditional lineup, the poor start was unexpected, Carter said. “One, we’re not going to put you in the jersey if we don’t trust you, and two, we’re definitely not going to put you on the court if we don’t think you’re going to do positive things,” Carter said. “So regardless of who started, guys just needed to play a little bit better to start the game.” Both teams will participate in Kaneland’s shootout today, with the North Stars facing Hillcrest and Larkin matching up with the host Knights.

Both the Sabres and Royals struggled during the regular season, but Bulldogs coach Kevin Jensen knows Koch has proven herself throughout a challenging schedule behind a two-way mindset. “She’s a scorer, and we needed more of that,” Jensen said. “And she’s picked up her defense to where if she’s in, she’s not going to hurt us anywhere. She’s done a great job lately.” More competitive practices have helped boost Koch’s confidence and
resolve. Sixteen Batavia players dress, a high during Jensen’s four seasons. “When we’re doing 5-on-5 stuff, we can go as hard as we can and then we can sub in girls, we can switch up during the rotation,” Bayram said. For the past five weeks, Koch has been elated to be part of Batavia’s starting five. No matter the duration of Batavia’s postseason run, she doesn’t plan on relinquishing her spot. Koch remains equally confident in her teammates, whether their roles come as scorer, stopper or somewhere in between. “We’re just going to practice hard and then play our hearts out in the regional game,” she said.

Best first-round matchup: Batavia vs. South Elgin at 4A Addison Trail Regional, 7:30 p.m. Tuesday. The teams didn’t meet in an Upstate Eight Conference crossover but crossed scouting paths during the Montini Christmas tournament. The Storm’s backcourt is stocked with Kellehers who can score. Delaney Kelleher is a 5-foot10 senior; Mackenzie Kelleher is a 6-1 sophomore. Best potential regional final: St. Charles East vs. St. Charles North at 4A St. Charles North Regional. Yup, the Saints earn first-mention rights here as the better seed – No. 4 to No. 5 – even though the North Stars held serve on their home floor when the teams met last month in Upstate Eight Conference River Division play. East won at home in December as the teams split the regular-season series. The school that takes the potential rubber match Friday would advance to the Geneva Sectional, needing an additional win to set up a possible clash with the host Vikings for the sectional crown. Best bet to win a regional: Geneva at 4A Lake Park Regional. The Vikings return three starters from last season’s Class 4A fourth-place finish – sophomore center Grace Loberg and seniors Janie McCloughan (forward) and Abby Novak (wing) – and spent much of the regular season cultivating their depth. Another winter of injury woes forced the issue. Seeded second in their own sectional, the Vikings healed down the stretch, closing out the schedule against struggling U-46 foes while bracing for a hopeful run into March. Potential dark horse: St. Francis. Coach Mike Phillips’ club, the sixth seed in the 3A Orr Sectional and part of the Nazareth Academy Regional, flirted with 20 regular-season wins behind a young, versatile rotation. Energetic freshman forward Antwainette Walker adds plenty of intrigue and was well-tested in the season’s first three months, including memorable tangles with Aurora Christian rebounding ace Natasha Brown. – Kevin Druley, kdruley@shawmedia.com

t. Charles North defenders often encroached on Hannah Frazier’s working space in the post during the Batavia girls basketball team’s regular-season finale Thursday. Some Bulldogs opponents can duplicate that strategy for a quarter or more. Others execute it for longer, although few successfully bear down for the balance of a game. At any rate, Batavia knows other teams are mindful of Frazier’s prowess and dare anyone else to beat them. Since joining the starting lineup during Batavia’s first meeting with North in January, junior forward Jess Koch has responded as a much-needed secondary scoring option. Now she’s intent on matching that effort in the Class 4A postseason, which begins for Batavia (15-14) with Tuesday’s IHSA Class 4A Addison Trail Regional semifinal against South Elgin (18-9). “I feel lots more confident, and I think I’ve been playing better since coach [played] me more,” Koch said. “I just go in and do my thing.” For Koch, that equates to shuttling back and forth between the perimeter and her midrange game. Entering Thursday, she led Batavia with a 32.7 shooting percentage from 3-point range while averaging 5.08 points a game, a figure that resided in the middle of the race for the Bulldogs’ second-leading scorer behind Frazier (21.9), a junior. Point guard Bethany Orman (5.88) and forward Shea Bayram (4.68), also juniors, have vied with Koch for the runner-up distinction. Unlike Koch, both are returning starters. Bayram also is the younger sister of 2014 Batavia graduate Erin Bayram, a Boston University freshman and the best friend and former longtime running mate of four-year Bulldogs standout Liza Fruendt, now at Missouri State. Erin Bayram and Fruendt still figure prominently on the Bulldogs’ team website design, making it easy for Koch and Co. to channel their memories, too. “I knew some people had to step up, because this year we lost two dominant players, and someone had to do it,” Koch said. “I just got in the right mindset and told myself I can do it.” Koch scored a career-high 18 points in a Jan. 24 victory at Streamwood, then was strong again less than two weeks later, contributing 17 points in a home win against Larkin.

GIRLS BASKETBALL REGIONAL PREVIEW
BOYS BASKETBALL: ST. CHARLES EAST 87, WEST CHICAGO 56
Early outburst propels Saints past Wildcats By RYAN WOODEN editorial@kcchronicle.com
Mick Vyzral
Cole Gentry
WEST CHICAGO – Coming off a 12-point loss to Geneva on Feb. 5, the St. Charles East boys basketball team had eight days to regroup before taking on West Chicago on the road Friday night. Powered by an 18-point first quarter effort by Mick Vyzral, East jumped out to a sizeable lead and never looked back on its way to an 87-56 victory in the Upstate Eight Conference River Division. Vyzral connected on his first four shot attempts for the Saints (19-3, 10-2 UEC River) and wound up
hitting four 3-pointers in the first quarter as East took a 32-11 lead. “The start was very important,” Vyzral said. “We wanted to come out with a lot of energy and set the tone early – hit some shots and play good defense.” After the fast start, Vyzral would begin to simmer in the second quarter, but that didn’t stop East from expanding upon its lead. Senior point guard Cole Gentry made a habit of taking his man off the dribble and getting to the rim, as he scored eight of his 12 points in the second quarter. East took a 50-21 halftime lead against the Wildcats (5-15, 3-9). Gentry added five assists
and two rebounds on the night. “I don’t want to say I expected that kind of start, but our last game against Geneva we weren’t very good. So we’ve been emphasizing some things and we’ve been practicing for eight days, so that’s the kind of start we were hoping for and I was happy with it,” Saints coach Pat Woods said. In the second half, with the outcome verging on the inevitable, the Saints continued to dominate. East outrebounded West Chicago, 40-23, on the night, leading by as many as 42 points before a late push from the Wildcats cut the final deficit to 31 points. Mike Bibbs led West Chica-
go with 14 points. Meanwhile, the Saints got scoring contributions from 11 players on their roster. Vyzral would led all scorers with his 20-point performance, while Evan DiLeonardi added 13 points. “I think that’s what makes us who we are, honestly,” Woods said. “Our kids do a great job of sharing the ball, so it’s kind of two-fold, because if you want to shut someone down we’ve got somebody else ready who can step up, and that’s kind of what we’ve been preaching all season.” Oddly enough, West Chicago was whistled for no fouls in the game.
BOYS BASKETBALL: GENEVA 57, STREAMWOOD 38
Workmanlike effort sufficient in win for Geneva By JARED BIRCHFIELD editorial@kcchronicle.com STREAMWOOD – A sign of a winning basketball team is the ability to overcome rocky stretches of play to win games. The Geneva boys basketball team did just that Friday night in a 57-38 Upstate Eight Conference River win over Streamwood. The victory was the 14th in a row for the Vikings (23-2, 10-1), who remained in first place in the conference. “I thought there were parts of the game where we played really well, and there were
parts where we didn’t play as well,” Geneva coach Phil Ralston said. “But obviously it was good enough to win.” The Sabres (2-24, 1-11 UEC River) held the lead for the first 3 minutes of the game as Geneva turned the ball over on its first three possessions. Junior forward Loudon Vollbrecht sank the Vikings’ first basket on an inbound play that tied the game at 4. Geneva took the lead on the next possession, 6-4, on a Nate Navigato putback for the first two of the senior’s game-high 21 points. A highlight of the quarter was Vollbrecht’s slam dunk on
Sean Chambers’ steal at midcourt. Vollbrecht finished the night with 12 points. Geneva’s defense clamped down and the Vikings scored nine unanswered points to take a 13-4 lead at the end of the first quarter. “Turnover, turnover, turnover, and we weren’t coming and shooting like we should,” Ralston said about the opening minutes of the game. “But we settled down, got to do what we wanted to accomplish, get the ball inside and get some transition baskets.” “I think we started off a little slow. We didn’t seem to have

our heads in it, I guess,” Navigato said. “We picked it up. Our 1-3-1 and our 1-2-2 [zone defense] was good. We played good ‘D’ and we were happy to come out with the win.” The teams played a more balanced second quarter. The Vikings held a 30-17 lead at halftime.Geneva put the game away in the third, outscoring the Sabres 14-7 to lead, 44-24, to start the fourth. All 16 Vikings players saw action as Ralston rested his starters in the fourth quarter. Reserve Jordan Vedder scored Geneva’s last four points. Jake Rocks added nine points for the
Vikings. “I told the kids that if we were able to take care of our business and play well, everyone gets an opportunity to play,” Ralston said. The Vikings impressed their opposition. “They are a very good ballclub. They have all the pieces to be incredible,” said Sabres coach Paul Kowalyszyn. “Their best shooter [Navigato] is 6-foot-7, and what do you do against a 6-7 shooter?” Jaleel Jenkins led Streamwood with 13 points. Teammate Brendon Marton contributed 12 points.

ELGIN – The Batavia boys basketball team started out strong and showed poised late to emerge with a 63-51 road win Friday over Elgin. The Bulldogs put up a 25-point first quarter to build an early double-digit lead and then showed composure when Elgin made a fourth-quarter run. When the Maroons chipped the Batavia lead down to eight points with more than 4 minutes to play, the Bulldogs were able to run 1:45 off the clock with their motion offense. “Elgin is a much-improved team, probably the most improved team we’ve played,” Bulldog coach Jim Nazos said. “It’s always good to get a road win. “I thought we held our composure when they made a spurt. We took care of the basketball.” Junior guard Canaan Coffey led Batavia with 21 points, including five 3-pointers. He added three rebounds and a steal. Senior forward Chasen Peez added 20 points and seven rebounds for the Bulldogs. “Chasen had a nice game for us,”
Nazos said. “His mid-game continues to improve.” Peez was able to get to the basket early for the Bulldogs, scoring five first-quarter points. “I was able to get nice passes from teammates,” Peez said of his scoring from close Canaan Coffey range. Batavia went on a 13-6 run to close the first quarter and post a 25-12 lead. “The last three games we haven’t had that good start,” Nazos said. The strong inside Chasen Peez game of Peez and the consistent outside game of Coffey give the Bulldogs a balanced attack, a factor that could make them a force to be reckoned with when the playoffs begin. “We’re playing better. That’s all you can ask for at this time of year,” Nazos said. “We are definitely getting better.” The Bulldogs pushed their lead to 20 points midway through the third quarter before the Maroons began chipping

DEKALB 60, KANELAND 37
Cold start dooms Knights By EDDIE CARIFIO ecarifio@shawmedia.com DeKALB – After beating DeKalb in Maple Park last month, coach Brian Johnson hoped his Kaneland boys basketball team would start strong and make a statement against the Barbs, the firstplace team in the Northern Illinois Big 12 East. Twenty-one straight points to open the game later and the Barbs showed that wasn’t going to happen in a 60-37 victory over the Knights. “We wanted to be competitive and we wanted to make the conference race interesting,” Kaneland coach Brian Johnson said. “That kind of of died down quickly in the first quarter.” The Knights (11-11 overall,
6-4 NI Big 12 East) were the closest team to the Barbs (167, 7-1) in the division standings. DeKalb scored the first 21 points of the game and only a 3-pointer by Dylan Vaca as time expired in the first quarter put Kaneland on the board. Vaca was the hero the last time with a late free throw for the win in a game the Knights trailed by 11. This time around, there were no such heroics. The Barbs made 17 of their 25 shots in the first half, while Kaneland made 2 of its 23, as DeKalb led, 40-11, at the midway point. “We came out and we were as focused as we’ve been all year long,” DeKalb coach Al Biancalana said. “We needed to come out and throw the first punch. That’s been our theme all week long – we didn’t want
to get them going, Vaca and (Ryan) David. They’re two gifted players and we didn’t want to make them comfortable on our floor.” Vaca struggled from the floor but still finished with 11 to lead the Knights, while Steve Limbrunner scored nine off the bench, all on 3-pointers in the fourth quarter. David scored just four, and Jacob Gomes led Kaneland with six rebounds. “They were ready to go and we weren’t,” Johnson said. “Their energy level was a lot higher than ours. We paid for a lot of mistakes. Obviously the first quarter was the deciding factor.” Jace Kitchen scored 16 to lead the Barbs and Luke Davis grabbed a game-high eight rebounds for DeKalb.
AURORA – The Aurora Christian girls basketball team overcame a slow and sloppy start to turn in a dominating fourth-quarter performance for a 45-33 victory Friday over Westmont in the Class 2A Aurora Christian Regional final. Eagles senior Natasha Brown, who finished with seven points, chalked up the poor first half performance to “just nerves.” “We were really nervous for this game,” she said. “But we came out as a team and played together and got a great team win. We played hard, and this is such an amazing experience.” The Sentinels turned in a strong defensive performance throughout the first half, forcing several Eagles turnovers. But Aurora Christian found its rhythm near the end of the second quarter, when junior Sami Hultine hit the first two of her four consecutive 3-pointers to bring the Eagles within three points, 25-22, of Westmont at halftime. Aurora Christian junior Gabby Galbato opened the third quarter with a layup and a free throw to begin her 16-point second half. From then on, it was all Eagles. The Sentinels scored their last points of the game when senior Mara Casper hit a 3 halfway through the third quarter. Sentinels coach Mike McCord couldn’t explain what happened to his team after such a strong start. “Our freshmen started playing like freshmen, and we started hesitating and didn’t do what we needed to do,” McCord said. “We did everything we should’ve done for three quarters, and then in the fourth we just broke down.” Eagles coach Burney Wilkie, whose team improved to 20-8 and set a new single-season school record for victories, said the comeback win has been

Their defense did a nice job, they played us really well. But we came back and played hard.” Wilkie praised Galbato’s performance, especially during the second half, as critical to the win. “Gabby has stepped up and played unbelievably well for us,” he said. “She’s worked so hard for us and it’s so nice to have people recognize her. She’s an awfully special kid.” Galbato, a Geneva Middle School North product who led all scorers with 21 points, said when it was “crunch time,” her team stepped up. “We had to come out and play in the second half; we knew we’d have to take control and keep our composure. Our coach told us, ‘This is our time,’ and this really shows how we come together as a team.” Hultine finished with 13 points for the Eagles.

AURORA – The Marmion boys basketball team played suffocating defense in the second half of Friday night’s 5225 nonconference win against Dundee-Crown, holding the Chargers to seven points in the final 16 minutes of play. The Chargers (7-18) were unable to convert a field goal in the fourth quarter as the Cadets (13-11) ran away with the game, led by a strong performance on the glass and from behind the arc. “We had to turn our defense up, communicate a little better than what we’ve been doing and I thought it was just a good week of practice where we worked on what we needed to do tonight,” Cadets coach Joe Currie said. “Hats off to the guys that they were willing to step forward and put egos and individuals aside and just do what we had to. It helps, too, when you’re knocking down shots.” Marmion outrebounded Dundee-Crown, 22-8, while the Cadets made seven shots from 3-point range, taking a 28-18 lead into the half. Marmion pushed the pace of play after a tightly-contested first quarter that ended with Hunter Weber converting on a buzzer-beating 3-pointer to give the Cadets a 17-10 lead. The Cadets went on an 11-0 run at the end of the first quarter that continued into the second. Weber and Jordan Glasgow knocked down three straight 3s to give Marmi-

bounds, three assists and three steals, including a pair late in the third quarter. “After I got one breakaway where I felt like I could have dunked it, I wanted to try to get that kind of steal again,” Glasgow said. “I just shot up on as many passes as I could.” Marmion was aided by contributions up and down the lineup. Weber finished with nine points and three boards, while forward Jake Esp had nine points, four boards and three assists. Forward Matthew Fletcher added six points and five rebounds for the Cadets. Glasgow said the ability for any guy to step up has helped the team when it’s been successful this season. “We don’t really have one person who can really take (a game) over,” Glasgow said. “When one person isn’t doing well, usually we have another person who takes over. We’re just a good team in that sense.” The lopsided loss obviously wasn’t desired, but the Chargers could still take something from it from an effort perspective with a handful of games remaining in the regular season. “I don’t think it’s ever too late for learning experiences,” Huber said. “I just want our guys to compete and battle to the end and do things that they’re coached to do. It’s a process and sometimes you go faster, sometimes you don’t go that fast. Our job is to help these guys reach their ceiling.” Caleb Parson led the Chargers with eight points.

BENSENVILLE – The Aurora Central Catholic girls basketball team withheld a late charge from host Fenton in Friday’s regular-season and Metro Suburban West finale, winning, 39-35. “First time in a new gym. They had their band there. It was louder than you know what,” Chargers coach Mark Fitzgerald said. “But it was great. The kids really responded to it.” ACC (16-10, 5-6 Metro Suburban West), relied on clutch late scoring from Veronica LaVia (11 points) and Sabrina Ganofsky (six) to keep its distance from the Bison. “Ganofsky made some beautiful post moves and some baskets in close, and LaVia was the key to the offense between hitting jumpers and taking the ball to the hole,” Fitzgerald said. The Chargers are the top
seed in next week’s 3A Rosary Regional, and will begin play Wednesday in a semifinal against either Sandwich or IMSA. “We have some work to do. We’re confident but we’re not overconfident by any stretch,” Fitzgerald said. “All bets are off once the playoffs start. We’re taking this extremely seriously.”
on some breathing room as it opened up a 22-10 lead. The Chargers cut the lead to 10 heading to the break, trailing, 28-18, at the half after senior guard Caleb Parson made back-to-back 3-pointers. But Marmion’s defense played at another level in the second half while the conservative Charger offense struggled to find and convert on open looks. “We have a hard time making shots, and it’s hard for us to get a good one,” Chargers coach Lance Jordan Huber said. “I Glasgow thought Marmion turned it up a notch, and we didn’t match the intensity in the second half. A lot of it was just because of what they did. They played well, executed their game plan and executed it really well.” The defense aided the transition game, giving Marmion multiple options on offense, Currie said. “It opened up,” Currie said. “We had good movement and got the inside-out look. When we’re moving the ball as well as we were doing that’s when we are usually better shooting from outside since it’s just rhythm. I think that was what the key was, we just got rhythm.” Glasgow converted a pair of 3s in the third quarter as the Cadets ran the lead up to 15, heading to the fourth up, 39-24.

Shelby Stitz Scholarship fundraiser St. Charles North girls soccer goalkeeper Shelby Stitz lost her father, Craig, suddenly in 2014 to a heart attack, but not her dreams for scholastic and athletic achievement that he cherished. Stitz and her two younger siblings continue to exceed expectations. Stitz earned partial scholastic and athletic grants because of her dedication in the classroom and on the pitch. She plans to start nursing school at Lewis University in the fall. A gift of $5 or $50 will help Stitz buy her college books and cover some tuition costs at Lewis University, where she will pursue a nursing degree and begin her collegiate soccer career in the goal.

WEEKEND LIFE Precious little to do with housework A few days ago, Noah had a French club meeting after school. When he was ready for a ride home, he sent a text. I was just leaving Trader Joe’s. “Come get me, and a special surprise,” he said. “Oooh,” I replied. “K.” On second thought, I added, “It better be chocolate.” Yes, indeed. Because if this “special surprise” had a heartbeat, well, let’s just say I’m not the best housekeeper under even the best of circumstances. And these were not the best of circumstances. I’ve had a lot of interesting things preoccupying me lately, as it happens, but they had precious little to do with housework. Precious little. Suffice it to say, Noah’s “surprise” was lovely, but it wasn’t chocolate. It had a heartbeat. So, as the boys slung their backpacks into the car and buckled up, I took mental inventory of the damages. The Big Red Dog’s poop picked up
TALES FROM THE MOTHERHOOD Jennifer DuBose from the yard? Check. Porch tidy? Eh. Bathroom? No comment. Kitchen? Um, not so pretty. But I wasn’t going down without a fight. While Noah changed his clothes so they could head off to the gym, I began unpacking groceries and making small talk with our guest. (I will say this, it WAS handy to have not one but two bodybuilders around to haul the groceries in. Had I known, I’d have done more shopping! But yes, I digress.) I found a clean glass (score!), poured our guest a glass of water and fished a guest-worthy snack out of the Trader Joe’s bag at his feet (yay for groceries!). Then I crossed the kitchen
and strategically placed myself with my back to the dining room, so that as we chatted he was forced to look away from the train-wreck in the sink – the dried scrambled egg clinging to the rim of a skillet perched on the edge of the sink, which was filled with “last night’s” dishes – and toward the dining room, instead. (I know, right? I was on my game!) Plus, the laundry piled on the dining room table was clean. While they walked the dog (Winning! I get zero whining about this job when the kids’ friends are around. Yay for witnesses!), I took a quick swipe at the grime in the bathroom and hustled the icky skillet into the oven, out of sight. Yes, yes I did. Noah should surprise me more often. Clearly, I can take it. I can’t be the only one who amuses herself with such silliness when caught squarely behind the eight ball, her guests none the wiser (that’s the story I tell myself), can I?

In my defense, I started on the dishes the night before, but half-way through loading the dishwasher was summoned by my daughter, who wanted to show me something-or-other that was way more interesting. And being the “shiny-object” person that I am, I skipped out of the kitchen – and away from my mom’s old gravy boat pinch-hitting as a cereal bowl (my cue that the dishes needed wrangling) – and never looked back. I realize that most kids couldn’t care less about the dishes loitering in their friends’ sinks or the dust bunnies communing in their corners, but it could happen. The older my teenagers get, the more likely this seems. I suppose I could get my act together, just in case, but geesh, what fun would that be?

Dear Abby: I am a teenager who went through some emotional stuff a couple of years ago. It was horrible. My parents thought it was just a phase, so I had to deal with it myself until it got better. I don’t feel like I can communicate with my parents. If I try, I’m afraid they’ll just downplay it again. I feel so alone sometimes. Even when I’m happy I still have this feeling of sadness. Then suddenly, I feel angry for no reason, and I hate it. Other times, I get so anxious I don’t know what to do. I feel like my friends don’t like me, even though nothing is wrong. I feel stuck. Most people say it’s because I’m a teenager, and that’s what I try to tell myself, but it doesn’t work. I don’t know what to do. What do you think, Abby? – Anonymous In The U.S.A. Dear Anonymous: I’m sorry that when you tried to tell your parents you were in pain they didn’t take you seriously. While the feelings
DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips you’re having may be caused by “raging teenage hormones,” they could also be a symptom of something more. That’s why I’m suggesting you talk to another trusted adult about your feelings – a counselor at school or your pediatrician. It never hurts to have a “reality check” every once in a while, and when you share what’s going on in your head with someone who has more life experience, it can give you a better perspective. Dear Abby: This time last year, I read a letter from a young woman whose live-in boyfriend doesn’t get her anything for Valentine’s Day. I have been married to my husband for 28 years. When we were first married, I was often disappointed because he was never good at getting me gifts
on holidays. Every year I would remind him ahead of time. But gradually over the years, I began to realize that the gifts were not important. He has been the best husband I could ask for. He knows me better than anyone else. He adopted my two young girls and has been a wonderful father to them. A few years ago he was very ill and almost died. I am so grateful for him every day. The material gifts are unimportant. – Mary M. In Minnesota Dear Mary: Thank you for an upper of a letter. You are a woman who clearly has her priorities straight. I told the young woman who wrote that letter that she’d feel less “deprived” if she focused not on what she ISN’T getting out of the relationship, but more on what she IS. You reinforced this beautifully. • Write Dear Abby at www. dearabby.com.
Stay in your target heart rate range for exercise benefit Dear Doctor K: I’ve seen fitness monitors that track heart rate. Is it important to know your heart rate when you’re exercising? Dear Reader: Whether you’re just getting started with an exercise routine or are a committed fitness enthusiast, tracking your heart rate can be helpful. Heart rate monitors – which instantly tell you how fast your heart is beating – can help you exercise at the right intensity. Heart rate monitors worn on the wrist or head track the blood flowing through tiny vessels in your skin. Every time your heart pumps, blood suddenly gets pushed through those vessels. When the heart relaxes, blood flow stops. Heart rate monitors use an optical sensor to “see” blood flowing and stopping. From that, they can tell your heart rate. Basic heart rate monitors show just your heart rate. More advanced ones sound an alarm if your heart rate goes too high or low. (If you want even more data, digital fitness monitors can also track the number of steps you take and calories you burn.) A heart rate monitor gives you an accurate way to gauge your effort on a day-to-day basis. This
ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff can help ensure you’re exercising hard enough to keep your heart healthy, but not so hard you are putting yourself in danger. The heart likes to work, but not too hard. And it doesn’t like not working. So, what should your heart rate be when you’re exercising? For that matter, what is a “normal” resting heart rate? • Resting heart rate: This is your heart rate when you’re most relaxed. Use your heart rate monitor right after you wake up in the morning, or use it during the day when you’re relaxing. Either is your resting heart rate. For men, resting heart rates are usually between 60 to 80 beats per minute (bpm); for women, they’re 70 to 90 bpm. • Maximum heart rate: This is an estimate of the highest heart rate a person could reach while exercising very strenuously. The formula for calculating maximum heart rate is 220 bpm minus your age. Remember, it’s an estimate. If
you’re healthy, there’s no risk in going above your expected maximum heart rate for short periods of time. • Target (or training) heart rate: This range is 65 percent to 80 percent of your maximum heart rate. (I’ve put a table that will let you quickly find your target heart rate on my website, AskDoctorK.com.) To get the most health benefit from your exercise, try to stay in your target heart rate range for at least 20 minutes during an exercise session. Some medications to treat high blood pressure and heart disease slow the heart rate. Probably the best examples are beta blocker drugs. Ask your doctor if your medication might affect your target heart rate. When I began a regular exercise program as a young adult, there was no machine to measure my heartbeat while I exercised. Today, it is easy to tell how hard your body is working. Just monitor your heart rate.

Dr. Wallace: I’m a 17-year-old guy and I really need your advice. One of my very best friends when I was younger was a girl my same age. We did lots of fun things together and when she moved to Toronto two years ago we were both sad to say goodbye. We did keep in touch for a while, but eventually the phone calls and emails stopped. Then last week I was at the mall with a pal of mine and I was really surprised to see her in one of the stores. She was also surprised and glad to see me. She told me her family had just moved back from Toronto and she gave me her new cell number and email address. We have talked on the phone for hours catching up on the past couple of years. We are both in the 12th grade but we do not attend the same high school. I would really like to take her out, but I don’t want her to say no and thus shatter the friendship we have renewed. What do you think I should do? – Greg. Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Dear Greg: Don’t waste any more time on small talk. Ask her out! I’m positive the answer will be yes, yes, yes. Dr. Wallace: I’m 19, and Ryan is 20. We have been dating for over two years. I love him more than I can say. He is the only one for me, and I want him to be my life’s companion forever. I have told him that I love him very, very much and I want to get married. We have been living together for over a year and I want to make it legal.
’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace Last week, we discussed this, and he told me that although he liked living with me, he would never marry me because even though he has tried, he doesn’t really love me. I was taken by surprise, but I told him that I could learn to make him happy and love me after we get married, but he still said that he would not do it. Everybody we know, including my parents and his, thinks that we are the perfect couple and that we will get married soon and live happily ever after. Now I don’t know what I should do. Do you think I should just tell everyone that we are splitting up and move back home with my parents? Or should I just stay here and hope that I can change his mind? – Nameless, Kansas City, Kansas
Dear Nameless: Marriage is a total commitment of both husband and wife, to love, honor and cherish each other until death separates them. Marriage is a 24-houra-day commitment to each other. Any marriage without love is doomed to failure. Move back home with your parents and get on with your life without Ryan. • Dr. Robert Wallace welcomes questions from readers.

TODAY – Overspending and overreacting will not help you get through the year. Resist the urge to take on more than you can comfortably handle. Someone you think you can count on this year will let you down. Assuming a leadership position is your best bet if you want to excel. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – You will be disappointed in someone whom you’ve gone out of your way to help. Keep a close eye on your spending habits. Problems managing money could lead to anxiety. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Emotional confrontations will damage your reputation. Contain your feelings and act professionally. You will be criticized if you are overbearing or difficult to deal with. Be willing to compromise. ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Do your best to be optimistic. Don’t let uncertainty prevent you from trying something new and exciting. If you want to excel, you must learn from people who come from different walks of life. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Your friendliness and approachability will bring new opportunities. Do your best to form a partnership with someone from your past who shares your interests. Help those less fortunate. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Don’t share your feelings with just anyone. Someone you consider a friend will let you down. Lending or borrowing will lead to worry and stress. Pay down debt. CANCER (June 21-July 22) – It is your unique outlook on life that makes you who you are. Don’t apologize for your belief or vision. Align yourself with someone who shares your concerns. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Contracts and agreements are not to be entered into lightly. Do your homework and read the fine print before you sign on the dotted line. Romance is in the stars. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Meddling in someone else’s affairs will bring unwanted stress in your own relationship. Don’t take part in something that has the potential to cost you dearly or damage your reputation. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Don’t be put in a compromising position at work by becoming too involved with someone’s personal problems. Emotional confrontations are best kept to a minimum if you want to avoid conflict. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Intuition and positive ideas will open up avenues that were closed in the past. Good connections can be made if you network with people who work in your industry. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Focus on the people you love. Lifestyle improvements will add greater depth to your romantic life. Don’t be tempted to stretch the truth or offer the impossible. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Be clear about your specifications and expectations. If you plan to develop a workable partnership, boundaries must be set. Be leery of someone from your past trying to make amends.

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder
An entry destroyer for the optimist
CELEBRITY CIPHER
Daniel J. Bernstein, a highly regarded mathematician and computer programmer, said, “The most important function of a bibliographic entry is to help the reader obtain a copy of the cited work.” The most important function of a bridge entry is to help the declarer or a defender obtain at least one extra trick. That has been our topic this week. To end, we have a tough deal for declarer and a possible chance for a defender to be a genius. Can you see the key plays? South is in three no-trump, and West leads the heart queen. South starts with seven top tricks: one spade, two hearts, two diamonds and two clubs. He might be able to get one more trick from spades if they break 3-3. Aiming instead to get four diamond tricks is more sensible. But how should declarer handle the diamonds? It looks natural to cash the king, then to play a diamond to dummy’s jack. That works fine when the suit splits 3-2, but less well here. Now South gets only three diamond tricks and goes down. The best play for declarer is to lead a low diamond from his hand at trick two and also to play low from the dummy. When he wins the next trick, he cashes his diamond king, sees the split and knows to finesse dummy’s jack. Are you thinking that South could cash his diamond king first, then duck a diamond? That will work, but he might fall to a brilliant ruse by West. On the second diamond, West should play his queen, looking like someone who started with queen-doubleton. Declarer might carelessly win that trick and fall to defeat.
