“I love Geneva because I think the people and neighbors seem to want to get involved, and they’re friendly. It’s a very good feeling to have those types of people who are neighbors who really care about where they’re living and being a part of the community. I also love the downtown ambiance.” – Dorothy Flanagan, former 4th Ward alderman

Council tweaks overtime parking rules

By BRENDA SCHORY bschory@shawmedia.com GENEVA – Aldermen again tweaked the city’s overtime parking rules at the City Council meeting June 20, leaving in two warnings before costs start accumulating.

The new fines for overtime parking are as follows: two warning tickets before the third ticket costs $5, tickets four and five will cost $10, tickets six through 10 will cost $20, tickets 11 through 15 will cost $25, and 16 tickets and above will cost $40.

Previously, the city’s ordinance called for a warning for the first offense, the second and third tickets were $2, the fourth through ninth tickets were $10, the 10th through 14th tickets were $15 tickets, and 15 or more tickets were $25, In April, aldermen wanted to double the parking fines to make up for lost revenue, but in May they backed off after considering how it would affect shoppers in the downtown business district.

Then, at Committee of the Whole meeting June 13, aldermen changed

About the parking fines The new fines for overtime parking are as follows: two warning tickets before the third ticket costs $5, tickets four and five will cost $10, tickets six through 10 will cost $20, tickets 11 through 15 will cost $25, and 16 tickets and above will cost $40. course again, saying they wanted fines to kick in sooner before amending their recommendation yet again.

Ultimately, they voted 9-0 with one absent to approve the revised parking fines.

“It’s a ... compromise,” 5th Ward Aldermen Tom Simonian said. “What we’re basically doing is adding a warning.”

Fifth Ward Alderman Craig Maladra said he also liked the second warning, but he did not like going too easy on third and fourth offenses.

“One is a mistake,” Maladra said.

“Two is clumsy. Three starts to be habitual. Four is more a pattern of behavior more than anything else. I

like the idea of warnings, ‘Hey folks we have these parking limits; we have these rules for a reason.’ But ... after one or two warnings, I’d like to see the fines more substantial, a little bit more meaningful, so that we can curb the habitual behavior, as opposed to the accidental behavior.”

But 2nd Ward Aldermen Jim Radecki said for too long the city’s parking ordinances “didn’t have any teeth in them.”

Radecki blamed downtown employees for the overtime parking tickets more than the shoppers.

“I am not favor of giving warnings,” Radecki said. “One is a warning, two is a free pass.”

But 1st Ward Alderman Tara Burghart said she liked having an extra warning.

“Extra warnings gives us more cushion to shoppers,” Burghart said.

At one point, aldermen asked Geneva Chamber of Commerce President Jean Gaines to weigh in.

“It is a problem that can’t be solved,” Gaines said. “So I think the majority should rule.”

At a recent city meeting, Mayor Kevin Burns and school district attorney Rick Petesch said both sides were in negotiations and were close to an intergovernmental agreement.

Geneva Design firm celebrates 40 years

By BRENDA SCHORY

The PB Kitchen Design team includes President Dan McFadden (from left), senior designer Debbie Larson and CEO Dave McFadden. Past Basket Inc. on Third Street in Geneva recently changed its kitchen design division to PB Kitchen Design.

The company has been in business for 40 years.

bschory@shawmedia.com GENEVA – Past Basket Inc., located at 200 S. Third St. in Geneva, announced a name change to its kitchen design division to PB Kitchen Design.

This distinguishes the design firm from the brand’s founding name – Past Basket – owners David and Linda McFadden announced in a news release.

The name change comes in the 40th year that Past Basket has been in business in Milwaukee, Wis., and Geneva, David McFadden said, separating its tabletop accessories and gifts from the kitchen design aspect.

“The business evolved from folk art and decorative accessories in St. Charles … that [had] moved to Third Street in Geneva,” David McFadden said. “For 25 years, it was a hybrid, two separate entities under the same roof.”

For the past two years, the kitchen design division has been separate from the home accessories, David McFadden

said, with decorative accessories now concentrated at its Milwaukee location.

Their son, company President Dan McFadden, said Past Basket has always been known for its quality products.

“We always prided ourselves on working with local and nationally

known artisans,” Dan McFadden said.

“We might create a hand-hammered hood … or maybe we used some old repurposed brackets to hold up a shelf or old repurposed doors. We utilize glass artisans because stained glass is still being done. They’re doing it locally, in

their garage, cranking away. There’s still a place for them.”

PB Kitchen Design is a longtime community partner as well, with Dan McFadden spearheading the Past Basket Cares program, which hosted a Kitchen Walk in 2014 featuring five of its design kitchens. The company helped raise more than $10,000 for Fox Valley Food For Health.

“We always look for ways that we can become involved in the community,” Dan McFadden said.

In honor of the 40th anniversary of the Past Basket Inc. brand, the company will be giving away free bottles of cold water while supplies last from noon to 4 p.m. June 25 and 26 during Geneva’s Swedish Days festival.

The company also will host a raffle for a Wolf small kitchen appliance, with all proceeds going to Fox Valley Food For Health.

More information about the company is available by calling 630-208-1011 or visiting http://pbkitchen.design.

Kane County Chronicle / KCChronicle.com • Thursday, June 23, 2016

A day at the races Those of you with a clever eye may have noticed that there is a different byline for this week’s “In Focus” column.

I am Kaitlyn Veto, a student at UW-Madison and Sandy Bressner’s summer protégé, otherwise known as an intern.

Sandy was kind enough to give me my own “In Focus” column this week. Since I’m somewhat unfamiliar to all of you, I thought it might be good to start with something that is likely familiar to all of you: the annual dragon boat races on the Fox River in St. Charles.

I’ve been going to the dragon boat races for as long as I can remember. From my early adolescent years, eagerly cheering the fastest boat, to my snotty teenage years when I just HAD to make my parents drop me off with my friends to now, where I will gladly be seen in public with my family.

There’s nothing quite like munching on fair food, sitting riverside and passing the time by cheering on people you’ve never met as they race across the water. Since I’ve been away at school, this was my first return to the races in a few years. This year was really no different than the others, bringing on a wave of nostalgia and contentment that I can look forward to next year.

PICTURING THE

PAST

... with the Batavia Depot Museum Batavia’s swimming facility is Quarry Beach, nestled adjacent to the scenic Fox River. Quarry Beach is truly a unique aquatic facility because it is a natural body of water complete with a sandy beach, zero-depth entry, diving towers and concrete islands.

The history of the beach began in 1842, when a limestone quarry was opened on the west end of town.

More than 150 men mined limestone from the quarry until it was so deep and wide that water began permeating onto the floor of the site. Soon, six ponds were formed that became known as the “old swimming holes” where residents would frequently cool off on hot summer days.

By 1920, the site was purchased and

donated to Batavia Township, and it converted the ponds into one swimming area. Fast forward to 1969, when the property was transferred to the Batavia Park District’s jurisdiction.

Pozzi Chimney Sweep, Inc.

Today, the quarry features a sandy beach, drop slide, kid’s flume, diving towers, lap swim area, inflatables, sand volleyball courts and a large picnic area.

Ask almost any Batavia resident and they are quick to share fond memories of this unique facility and agree that it truly is a gem in the community.

By Denise Freese The 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo exudes confidence and elegance. With its modern design, daytime running headlamps, projector fog lamps and capless fuel filler, the exterior is attractive from all angles. But the outside doesn’t tell the whole story; much of Laredo’s strength comes from inside, with protective safety features and Jeep’s legendary traction and off-roading capabilities.

The Grand Cherokee Laredo offers a 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine, with integrated Start/ Stop technology that helps provide a Best-inClass V6 highway driving range of over 600 miles on one tank of gas. That gives you approximately 26 miles per gallon, which is amazing for a midsize SUV. The Remote Keyless Entry system lets you lock and unlock doors or the available power liftgate from up to 50 feet away. The Sentry Key® antitheft immobilizer makes it virtually impossible for anyone to drive your vehicle

without a valid key.

The 2016 Laredo provides standard advanced, multistage driver and front passenger airbags, and supplemental side-curtain airbags. Standard crush zones integrated into the design of the vehicle help absorb excess energy, decreasing transfer to occupants.

A network of sensors help maintain control and provide instant assistance if the vehicle veers from its intended course.

Electronic Stability Control, Electronic Roll Mitigation, Antilock Brakes, Brake Assist, All-Speed Traction Control, and Trailer Sway Control are available, and are put into action when the system senses wheel slippage. The Enhanced Accident Response System turns on interior lighting, unlocks doors, and shuts off fuel when airbags deploy, in case of an accident.

The 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee was named a Consumers Digest Automotive Best Buy in the midsize SUV category, acknowledging superior performance, ownership costs, price, comfort, and ergonomics and amenities. Visit Tyson Motors for an exciting test drive!

The attraction of a certain Eddie Bauer shirt I would imagine most of us, if asked, would admit to owning something we deem lucky. It might be a classic good-luck charm such as a horseshoe, a rabbit’s foot or a four-leaf clover.

Me? I have a lucky shirt.

When I bought it more than 15 years ago at an Eddie Bauer store in Rockford, I was attracted to the many features touted in the display: a roomy cut, a vented back and a knot-tying guide printed on the inside of the front left panel.

But over the years I’ve come to appreciate its other fine qualities. It’s made of a magical cotton blend that’s soft and comfortable. It packs well. And it dries out quickly, which is great because it gets wet – a lot.

Perhaps best of all, though, are the bugs. This shirt attracts them like no other.

At first I thought the sightings were just coincidence.

For instance, on a steamy evening in August 2001, as

GOOD NATURED Pam Otto the shirt and I presented a program on bats, we were joined – not by our target species, which shunned us completely that night, but by a wonderfully large and unusual-for-our-area moth called a Black Witch, Ascalapha odorata. At the time I thought the big guy had been blown off course by recent storms, but in retrospect his appearance was probably the first display of the shirt’s magical powers.

After that incident, I began paying more attention to how my fashion sense affected my luck with bugs. Dark-colored, short-sleeve polo shirts, not so much. But the wondrous khaki creation, combined with warm, windless weather, time and again lured caterpillars and butterflies, bees and wasps, beetles, dragonflies

and more to my shoulders, sleeves and pocket flaps.

Remember 2007, the year of the periodical, or 17-year, cicada emergence? Despite the media hype, Magicicada was hard to find in eastern Kane County. This girl looked long and hard that sultry June before finally hearing a small number of males calling along the Fox River trail in Batavia. I was about to give up hope of seeing one, when, plop! One landed on my damp but lucky shirt.

I was again reminded of how great this clothing item is just last week, when I accompanied our Go 4 It teen campers on a series of adventures that included canoeing on the Fox River and an overnight expedition to Illinois’ White Pines Forest State Park in Oregon.

As if that in itself wasn’t enough good fortune, we – the campers, the counselors, my shirt and I – enjoyed three days of great weather, near-perfect paddling condi-

tions, a scenic creek walk, awesome food cooked over an open fire and ... bugs.

Some, such as the multicolored Asian lady beetle larvae, landed on my shirt’s left sleeve as I sat under a young oak tree at Ferson Creek Park in St. Charles – the destination for our canoe outing. The slight breeze that day was just enough to not only cool me off after the upstream paddle, but also to blow a MALB larva down onto my arm.

If you’ve never seen a young lady beetle, Asian or not, you really ought to try and seek one out. Elongated and bumpy, they look more like a teensy alligator than a baby beetle. Make that a teensy, colorful alligator.

Just as adult lady beetles sport varying combinations of orange and black, so too do their juvenile forms. A sight to behold, especially on one’s own clothing.

Later, as we made our way back to Pottawatomie Park, I stopped paddling for a short

time to take in the sights and sounds: a green heron skulking in the shadows along the west bank; a kingfisher rattling its delight, or displeasure – I’m never sure with those guys; and a blue damselfly, species unknown, perched on the folds of my right sleeve.

He stuck around for maybe 30 seconds or so, long enough for me to appreciate his phenomenally large eyes, his intricately veined wings and his shimmering blue back, but not long enough for him to exit his closely guarded territory. When he took off he made a beeline (damselfly-line?) for another damsel that had dared come too close.

The bug fun continued the next day, at White Pines, when a juvenile assassin bug chose to spend part of the noon hour walking across the back of my shirt. Not one but two of the Go 4 It kids took pictures for me so I could identify it later.

The kids were fascinated by the insect’s long proboscis, and its determined lapping of my sleeve. I thought it was pretty cool, too, until I did some reading and learned more about hackberry butterfly’s feeding preferences. They avoid flowers and instead gather nutrients from rotting fruit, carrion, animal droppings and sweat.

Today, camp is over. The canoes have been trailered away; the tents have been stowed; and my lucky shirt is in the laundry basket. A wash, a rinse, a few tumbles in the dryer and it will be ready for its next excursion.

Fingers crossed, the weather will be hot and muggy. And my shirt will be as lucky as ever.

Then a portly, egg-laden jumping spider made her appearance, hopping about the stitching on my left cuff.

When she skipped away to the dark reaches of the picnic table her spot was quickly taken by a metallic green bee of the family Halictidae.

These bees, solitary ground nesters, are native pollinators that play an important role in the life cycle of many local wildflowers.

Some Halictids are known generically as sweat bees, a fact that made me wonder, briefly, if it was time to exchange the shirt for something a little fresher.

But before I could act on that hunch, another insect happened along: a hackberry emperor butterfly, Asterocampa celtis.

We would see many of these fluttery but fast-flying beauties during our stay at White Pines, thanks to the number of hackberry trees growing along the moist floodplain. They flew singly and in groups, showing special interest in our watermelon and strawberries – and my shirt.

Maple Park winery to open bed and breakfast

By SUZANNE FLYNN MAPLE PARK – Guests entering Acquaviva Winery in Maple Park might feel like they’ve traveled to Italy.

Whether it’s in the architecture, artwork or the smell of the family-style pizza being cooked in the wood-burning ovens, it certainly doesn’t feel like Maple Park anymore.

Having opened just six years ago, owner Vito Brandonisio and his family have been pleasantly surprised that Acquaviva Winery is as successful as it is today. What began as a one-winery location has turned into two successful restaurants and a soon-to-be bed and breakfast.

The Brandonisio family opened the Maple Park location in May 2010 and named it after the small vineyard Vito’s grandfather owned in Acquaviva delle Fonti, Italy. In September 2014, they opened a second restaurant in Sycamore, called Ristorante di Acquaviva.

The eagerly anticipated bed and breakfast will soon open just to the west of the Maple Park winery, 47W614 Route 38, Maple Park.

The family uses grapes grown in its vineyard right across the street from the winery, which produces about a dozen red and white wines.

“People are shocked that our wines are not blended with California grapes,” general manager Joe Brandonisio said. “We assure you, our wines are all from our Illinois hybrid grapes grown right across the street, on the south side of Route 38.”

The 20-acre grape vineyard helps the winery produce 12 wines – including two ports. Its head winemaker, Sergio Benavides, is in charge of the 23

There also is a fiveacre apple orchard, which they use to produce a dessert wine and for some special apple picking in the fall.

The grapes grown at the Acquavi-

va Winery are hybrid grapes and most varieties are developed for the changing Illinois climates. The winery staff works all year to make sure the vineyards are protected from the cold, humidity, Japanese beetles and birds.

“If you drive past the vineyards during the summer and see netting over the grapes, we are trying to keep the birds away from the grapes,” Brandonisio said. “It’s a lot of work and effort to have our own grapes in order to produce the best wine for our customers.”

Acquaviva Winery has won the Illinois Governor’s Cup Award three of the past four years for the best wines made from Illinois fruit.

The 20,000-square-foot winery has a large tasting room where guests can enjoy six wines – all in one-ounce pours – for $6. Tours (with optional wine) allow guests to see the lower level of the building where the winemaking and bottling takes place.

A signature tour with the head winemaker ends in the barreling room with a meat and cheese platter, wine tasting and a question-and-answer session. Customers also have an option to join the wine club for special discounts, tastings, tours, restaurant dining and VIP events.

The restaurant menu includes beef, pasta, seafood, pizza, paninis and more.

The Maple Park venue also hosts weddings and special events. They offer private and semi-private event rooms, whole facility rental and outdoor patio rental options for personal and business events.

“We hope that our guests not only come for the great food and wine, but they take the time to walk around and enjoy the grounds,” Brandonisio said.

“We have acres of beautifully maintained land on the north side of the restaurant that guests can enjoy. It’s a hidden gem that we’re quite proud of.”

Man finds success in hauling junk from Tri-Cities homes

By ASHLEY SLOBODA asloboda@shawmedia.com Alex Broches said he wouldn’t have thought that – at age 28 – he would be making a living out of other people’s junk.

But he has – kind of by accident, as he put it.

He started The Junk Removal Dudes – a business that offers foreclosure clean-outs, hoarder clean-outs, barn clean-outs and all-around junk removal – as a weekend gig after his mother repeatedly asked him whether he knew anyone who could haul junk out of a

business, he said. Although he lives in Sycamore, Broches said the bulk of his jobs are in the Tri-Cities and surrounding communities.

He said the jobs can take as little as a few minutes or as long as several days.

One particularly daunting task involved an estate in Campton Hills, Broches said. He had to hire temporary workers for that job, he said, adding it included a basement, attic, garage and about half a dozen bedrooms.

“We were there for, like, seven days,” he said. “That one was pretty intense.”

When possible, Broches said he recycles items or takes them to The Salvation Army or Goodwill. Otherwise, he said he pays dumping fees to properly dispose of the trash.

For many patients with macular degeneration, glaucoma or other eye diseases, the loss of vision can signal the end of independence and the joy of life. Illinois optometrist, Dr. Ronald Weingart, OD, prescribes miniature telescope glasses to help people who have reduced vision see better.

“Many patients truly appreciate the functional advantages that these low vision devices have to offer them by improving their ability to conduct activities of daily living”, said Dr. Ronald Weingart, OD, who received training in Low Vision at the

International Academy of Low Vision Specialists.

Learning the symptoms of the various types of oral discomforts can save you from lots of future pain. When oral pain occurs, the most common reaction is “to wait and see if it goes away”. While this may work (or seem to work) for some, often, symptoms of more serious concerns like to act up and then go away.

Common Pains NOT to put off • Swelling in the mouth. If you have swelling in the gum or elsewhere along with pain: This is usually due to an abscess/ infection or impacted teeth. Get to your dentist ASAP especially if a fever occurs.

• Tooth pain with head movement.

The top back teeth will hurt and become worse by moving your head or going upand-down stairs; this may be a sign of sinus infection. Usually this is accompanied by other sinus symptoms, like a stuffy or runny nose.

• Symptoms with jaw movement. This could mean jaw joint problems, a sign of grinding, or both. Joint problems will NOT go away, grinding MIGHT, so if symptoms don’t stop you will need to see a dentist.

• Intense ache/unable to sleep. If nothing helps relieve the pain, it is likely due to inflammation inside of the tooth, or from a dental abscess. You will need to see a dentist to rid the pain.

• Persistent toothache. Pain for minutes after getting heat/cold/sweet stuff near a tooth, is usually a sign of nerve damage to that tooth. A dentist will need to repair that tooth.

Most importantly, toothaches are always worse during the night. Unless you like being woke up in the wee-hours, it is always best to immediately get your dental pains checked out by a dentist.

ERMA S. BOGERT

Developer presents plans for Elburn Station Project includes private and public partnership for parks

By SUSAN O’NEILL editorial@kcchronicle.com ELBURN – Shodeen Group developer Dave Patzelt attended the Elburn Village Board meeting June 20 to outline his plans for several parks within the Elburn Station development and to obtain village officials’ thoughts on including Blackberry Township in their plans.

Patzelt referred to a 50-50 partnership with the village – described in the annexation agreement for Elburn Station – in which the village and Shodeen would share the costs of the parks and join in applying for grants to help with those costs. He asked if the board

would be amenable to adding the township to that partnership.

Pointing to his success in obtaining similar grants in partnership with the Geneva Park District for parks within the Mill Creek subdivision, he explained that participation of additional entities makes success in obtaining grants more likely, especially from the state of Illinois.

Patzelt said it also would be possible to access the special-service area funding set up for Elburn Station to pay for park maintenance and improvements.

He showed board members drawings of a 60-by-110-yard field that could be used for lacrosse practice. The drawings also included a shelter and other amenities.

Although the designation of the field as a lacrosse field was based on interest

Patzelt has heard from the general public, he said that, based on its size, it also could be used for football or soccer.

Other drawings showed plans for a smaller pocket park, which could be used as a playground, equipped with a jungle gym and swingset – something he referred to as a “tot lot.”

He said the time frame for the two potential parks would be within the next one to two years.

Patzelt said the cost could be anywhere from $50,000 to $100,000 per park, with the playground being the more expensive of the two. Both Shodeen’s and the village’s share could be $25,000, with a potential match of $50,000 in grant money, Patzelt said.

“It’s cheaper than creating a park district,” trustee John Krukoff said.

Village President Dave Anderson

said he supported the collaboration, noting that not all of the parks would be within Blackberry Township. Anderson referred to the area north of Reader Street in Campton Township.

Based on the trustees’ feedback, Patzelt said his next step would be to meet with Blackberry Township officials to gauge their interest.

Kane County Board member Drew Frasz reminded village officials that the Kane County Forest Preserve District recently paid $600,000 to purchase property for the expansion of McNair Park in Blackberry Township, which could be a potential conflict. He said the township has received its second grant for improvements to the park.

Anderson said he thought the abundance of options was a good problem to have.

Vote keeps M.A. Center’s long-term plans on right track

A Sugar Grove Chamber of Commerce & Industry ribbon-cutting ceremony takes place June 9 for Modest Coffee, which now is located in the Sugar Grove Public Library, 125 S. Municipal Drive, Sugar Grove.

GENEVA – The religious organization that has a longrange plan for the former Broadview Academy property is on its way toward getting Kane County Board approval to amend the site’s existing special use.

The Kane County Development Committee on June 21 recommended approval of the Mata Amritanandayami Center’s zoning petition.

The vote included opposition from member T.R. Smith and an abstention from member Drew Frasz, who said the M.A. Center has a four-year track record of success with the county.

Over the next 10 to 15 years, the M.A. Center wants to add 72 single-family homes constructed in groups of two to six attached units, 192 temporary residential units within three buildings and – among other structures – a spiritual hub to its property at 41W501 Keslinger Road in Blackberry Township near Elburn.

Neighbors objected over aspects of the plan, but Frasz said the “vast majority” of their concerns have been accounted for.

He said the center’s agreement to prohibit temporary housing occupants from attending Kaneland School District 302 was a “major breakthrough.”

“That really helps a lot,” Frasz said.

The M.A. Center also has agreed to pay real estate taxes on the proposed 72 single-family homes and to limit those structures to two stories.

The buildings housing the temporary residences will not exceed three stories, and the maximum stay will be six consecutive months.

Representatives with the M.A. Center said the temporary living quarters will serve people visiting for activities at the site, such as retreats.

Charles Radovich, an attorney representing the M.A. Center, said all of the facilities on the site are devoted to the “religious, humanitarian mission of the M.A. Center.”

Friends of Geneva man reeling from news of sudden death GENEVA – The sudden death of Michael Szot has set those who knew him into a state of shock and grief, they said.

Szot, 23, was found unresponsive June 16 in the library at Waubonsee Community College in Sugar Grove. A preliminary autopsy report did not reveal a cause of death, so Kane County Coroner Rob Russell said his office is awaiting toxicology results.

Szot had pleaded guilty to aggravated driving under the influence causing death in a Naperville crash that killed two people in 2014. The car he was driving landed in a quarry.

Elburn resident Drew Occhipinti, 16, who will be a junior at Kaneland High School in the fall, said he and Szot knew each other while working at Best Buy in Geneva, and news of Szot’s death “was shocking.”

“I met him my second or third day at work, and we just became great friends,” Occhipinti said. “It was after the crash. ... I drove him to and from Waubonsee and to his mandatory drug testing.”

Occhipinti said Szot was remorseful and longed to go back and undo the crash.

Szot had been a chemical engineering student at Northwestern University when the crash occurred. After that, he attended the University of Illinois at Chicago and Waubonsee.

Although Szot had faced a potential sentence of six to 28 years in prison, a DuPage County judge sentenced him to a year in jail and four years of probation. Szot also was allowed to leave jail for school, work and to fulfill his 200 hours of community service.

However, DuPage County court records show Szot had failed to report for a drug test May 9 and on May 10 had tested positive for opiates. DuPage prosecutors had filed court papers seeking to revoke his sentence, set a new bond and pursue a resentencing hearing, records show.

Another urine test on June 7 was inconclusive, court records stated.

Szot’s next court date in Wheaton was scheduled for June 28.

IS YOUR CENTRAL VISION BLURRY OR CROOKED?

Older adults, in particular, should take note if their central vision becomes blurry, hazy, or crooked. These are symptoms of “age-related macular degeneration” (AMD), which is the leading cause of legal blindness among seniors.

It is important to diagnose AMD in its early stages to prevent severe vision loss. This eye condition, which involves deterioration of the central portion of the retina (called the “macula”), takes two forms: “Dry” AMD is caused by the formation of waste products (“drusen”) underneath the retina that cause atrophy. The more serious “wet” AMD involves the formation of leaky abnormal blood vessels beneath the retina. Typically, AMD progresses from the dry to the wet form, but some patients present with wet AMD initially.

P.S. While anyone may develop either dry or wet AMD after about age 50, the average onset of wet AMD usually occurs in a person’s late 70s to early 80s.

Continued from page 28 Another coworker at Best Buy, Robbie Brouillette, 20, of Batavia, said Szot received commendations at work for being a top salesman – a recognition he achieved without being pushy.

“He was more concerned with whether the customer would be happy than pushing sales,” Brouillette said.

Brouillette said he knew Szot for about two years, and they were friends before the crash.

“He changed after the crash,” Brouillette said. “He always felt absolutely awful about it. He had been to therapy.”

Although he was outwardly always friendly and upbeat, Szot suffered reliving the night of the crash when the car he was driving went into a quarry

pond, Brouillette said “One thing he did tell me was that for months after the crash, [when] getting in the shower and being covered in water – he would flash back to that moment and live that moment again,” Brouillette said.

Gina Nolan, a Spanish teacher at Geneva High School, said she taught Szot his junior and senior years and was one of three teachers who wrote letters to the judge on Szot’s behalf.

“He always had a smile on his face,” Nolan said. “He was incredibly bright, outgoing, friendly with his peers, very respectful and polite. … It’s a loss, that’s for sure. He was a very special individual.”

They had a few common interests outside of Spanish class, as Szot loved basketball and Nolan was a girls basketball coach. She was also a Northwestern alum, where he was planning to attend.

On May 12, when Szot spoke to Geneva juniors and seniors of the dangers of drunken driving, Nolan said she invited Szot and his mother up to her class, where they had a good visit.

“It was part of his community service. ... He had already spoken at St. Charles East,” Nolan said. “The kids thanked him for coming and said how powerful his speech was that day. I had several who said it was the best speaker brought in to talk about that message. That’s because he was so relatable – and he spoke from the heart.”

Visitation for Szot was from 3 to 8 p.m. June 22 at Malone Funeral Home, 324 E. State St., Geneva. Funeral prayers will be held at 9:30 a.m.

June 23 at Malone, proceeding at 10:30 a.m. to St. Peter Catholic Church, 1891 Kaneville Road, Geneva, for the funeral.

BY TERRY AND KIM KOVEL Legend says the two-part bridal cup was created in the 1700s to win a bride. A nobleman in Germany was upset when his daughter refused her rich suitors because she wanted to marry a goldsmith. Her father imprisoned the goldsmith and his daughter became ill because she was denied her true love. The nobleman thought he could trick the daughter by agreeing to the marriage if the goldsmith could do an impossible task make a cup that two people can drink from at the same time without spilling a drop. But the clever and talented goldsmith made a silver figure of the girl. Her skirt was hollow so it could be used as a cup. Her raised arms held a small swinging cup. Both of the lovers could drink from the cups at the same time.

Today, the wedding cup symbolizes love, faithfulness and good luck for the bridal couple that drinks from it. An antique German cup marked with a British import mark for 1908 was sold by New Orleans Auctions in 2015 for $522. To get a cup for a bride to use today, check antique sales and shops. A number are sold each year and there are even new ones available. *** Q: I have a Worley Water Waver. It’s a device for curling or waving ladies’ hair that was invented by my Grandad in 1926. I also have the original patent that was issued to him in 1927. Hair could be curled in a “Marcel” wave, a popular style of the day, by pressing it against the wavy surface of the steel chamber that held hot water. It was a forerunner of the modern curling iron. But not many were made because the financial backers of the project went under with the stock market crash. After the crash, my Grandfather moved from the northeast to Florida-and with a supply of the wavers, which he sold as he traveled down the highways. The cords were removed because they were sold to women on farms where electricity wasn’t very common, but putting hot water in the chamber still curled the hair!

I’m curious to know if it has any value other

than sentimental.

A: There aren’t many Worley Water Wavers around, but there was one listed in an online shop for $75. There is a similar device, called the West Electric Water Waver, also from the 1920s that could be used to curl or wave hair, which sold for about $25. Your waver may be worth a bit more than $75 because you have the original box and patent document. A local history museum or a collector who specializes in kitchen or cosmetic appliances might be interested in your waver, as well as your grandfather’s story. *** Q: I have a felt doll with a painted face and mohair wig. She’s wearing a Spanish dancer’s costume and is about 12 inches tall. She has a gold tag that reads “Klumpe, Patentado, Barcelona.”What is the doll worth?

A: Klumpe is one of several companies in Barcelona that made molded felt dolls dressed in Spanish costumes for the tourist trade in Spain from 1952 until the 1970s. The felt is molded over wire, making the dolls posable.

Effanbee and other companies imported the dolls into the U. S. Dolls made before the mid1960s are of better quality that those made later. Dolls with accessories sell for more than those without. Klumpe and Roldan are two makers collectors look for. The dolls are not very popular with collectors. They sell for about $10-$20. *** Q: I’ve been collecting old books and magazines for many years. Some are “The New Peerless World Atlas” from 1918, “Frye’s Complete Geography” from 1898, old “Look,” “Life,” and other magazines. Are they more valuable intact, or should I remove the maps from the atlases and the covers and ads from the magazines and sell them individually?

A: Old books don’t sell well unless they are first editions or are rare and there isn’t much interest in old magazines. Keep them intact and take them to a used book store to see what you can get for them. They may not be interested in the magazines, but will give you a price for the books. Expect to get half the price

they will sell them for. You might be able to sell interesting ads that are framed, but check online to see what kind are selling. *** Q: We have a cameo glass vase signed La Rochere and would like to know something about the maker.

A: La Rochere is a French company that has been in business since 1475, when Simon de Thysac was granted permission to build a glassworks at “Les Rochiers,” in the Franche-Comte region in eastern France. La Rochere is the oldest glassworks in Europe.

It became Cristallerie de La Rochere in 1960.

The company makes both mouth-blown and machine-made glass and is a popular tourist destination today. Cameo glass was made in the 1950s. *** Tip: To set the time on a clock, push the minute hand clockwise, never counterclockwise.

A new LIVE Doppler 7 MAX Radar now sits at the southeast corner of Routes 64 and 47 near Elburn.

Most Doppler radars in the country run off a S-band frequency, which shows only the approaching storm, but not the oncoming storm behind it. So those meteorologists rely on the National Weather Service’s S-band Doppler because that’s all they have access to, unless they get their own, which is what ABC 7 decided to do.

“Chicago has all kinds of severe weather,” ABC 7 meteorologist Jerry Taft said. “It could be thunderstorms, tornadoes, snow, sleet or ice; but we

wanted to be able to bring the most accurate reports we could. This Doppler is going to be able to allow us to do that.”

The station spent the cold winter months installing the Doppler to make sure it was up and running before the severe weather months started this spring. The total cost with the purchase of the land from Kane County and the Doppler itself – along with installation and labor – has been reported to be between $2 million and $3 million.

“I am happy that Kane County had the resources to help keep Chicagoland safer,” Kane County Board Chairman Chris Lauzen said.

With an eye on the skies at 150 feet in the air near Routes 47 and 64, the Doppler radar will be able to bring reports to the station every 45 seconds to one minute when needed during a storm. The antenna can be turned 45 degrees in either direction to actually

ELBURN – Severe weather could hit the Kane County area in the blink of an eye – but don’t worry – ABC 7 Chicago has a new safety tool near Elburn.

Since going live on March 21, ABC 7 Chicago is the first commercial TV station in the country to own a dual polarization S-band Doppler radar.

Jerry Taft Given the name LIVE Doppler 7 MAX, this new, state-of-the art Doppler radar, located in unincorporated Kane County, will be able to track approaching storms in real time, zooming in street by street, and will be able to see additional storms hiding behind oncoming storms.

Before this Doppler was installed, the S-band frequency was only available to the National Weather Service and the military.

This new Doppler gives the meteorologists at ABC 7 a much more accurate and faster approach of tracking storms rather than relying on the National Weather Service, which always had a 3- or 4-mile inaccuracy by the time it got to Chicago.

Rush to expand academic medicine to western suburbs KANE COUNTY CHRONICLE

Kane County Chronicle / KCChronicle.com • Thursday, June 23, 2016

editorial@kcchronicle.com Rush University Medical Center and Rush-Copley Medical Center have announced that they intend to redefine their existing relationship to expand academic medicine in Chicago’s western suburbs. Under their common parent, Rush University Medical Center and Rush-Copley will fully integrate clinical, research, education and community priorities, according to a news release.

“Our 30-year partnership has stood the test of time with great success, and we are excited to meaningfully enhance our work together,” Chief Executive Officer of Rush University Medical Center and President of Rush University Dr. Larry Goodman said in the release. “We can continue to improve patient care by uniting under a shared vision for clinical coordination, health care education and research at every level.”

Rush University Medical Center will expand clinical research, the training of future physicians and other providers and specialty medical programs at Rush-Copley, which is based in Aurora. These programs look to build upon existing clinical partnerships in stroke care, cancer and cardiovascular surgery.

“Our commitment to patients is strong, and enhancing our work together allows Rush-Copley to expand our personalized, community care with increased access to academic medicine,” President and Chief Executive Officer of Rush-Copley Barry Finn said in the release. “This is a meaningful partnership for both of our organizations and is really unique in the marketplace. While others are consolidating services within systems, we are investing in new services and adding them to our community.”

Streamlining governance will help the Rush system move toward its goal

“Viewers want to know three things when a storm is coming,” Taft said.

“They want to know where the storm is, how fast it’s moving, and where it’s going. We can answer all three of these questions with complete accuracy now with this new Doppler.”

Built at Enterprise Electronics Corp. in Enterprise, Ala., the LIVE Doppler 7 MAX Radar uses dual polarization that

of providing a single level of quality and commitment to the communities it serves. Greater integration is expected to enhance access to Rush University Medical Center’s nationally ranked clinical programs. Specific initiatives are anticipated to include the following: • Neurosciences clinical program development at Rush-Copley; • Neonatal and specialty pediatric program enhancement at Rush-Copley; • Expanded women’s health specialization and programming at Rush-Copley; • Consolidated Epic electronic medical records system at all facilities; • Emergency medicine physician residency program at Rush-Copley and Rush University Medical Center; • Expanded opportunities for workforce development, health care education and training throughout the Rush system.

To accomplish these new initiatives, a Rush system board will be formed. The board will oversee vision and strategy for the system. It will be led by the Rush University Medical Center chairman, William Goodyear.

Goodman will serve as chief executive officer of the new Rush system.

Finn will continue as CEO of Rush-Copley and will also serve as an executive officer of the Rush system.

Rush Oak Park Hospital Inc. and the other existing affiliates of Rush University Medical Center and Rush-Copley will also be included within the redefined Rush system. Each medical center will maintain its name, as well as its individual board.

The Rush academic health system will include more than 12,000 employees and more than 1,800 employed and private physicians. It will have hospitals in Chicago, Aurora and Oak Park, as well as numerous outpatient and ambulatory facilities throughout the Chicago area. The new structure and organization is expected to be operational in early 2017.

looks at the precipitation both horizontally and vertically to determine what type of precipitation is falling, its weight and shape. This technology has been available only for a couple of years.

The LIVE Doppler 7 MAX Radar gives meteorologists a 3-D report on the storm. It helps meteorologists tell the difference between sleet and snow, and whether it’s precipitation or debris inside a tornado based on the weight, size and shape.

Viewers can access the power of LIVE Doppler 7 MAX on their smartphone with the ABC 7 Eyewitness News app.

OUR VIEW

Snapshot of news process The late Michael Szot spoke at Geneva High School last month, calling himself “a living example of what not to do” while addressing drug and alcohol abuse in front of an audience of about 1,000 juniors and seniors at his alma mater.

The Kane County Chronicle reported on that event, just as it did Szot’s June 16 death. The 23-year-old, who was convicted in a July 2014 drunken driving crash that killed two others, had been found unresponsive in the Waubonsee Community College library in Sugar Grove.

A flurry of online feedback arrived when our related breaking news story appeared on Facebook, as many readers took issue with the photo that accompanied that first article. The Kane County Chronicle used Szot’s police booking photo instead of a photo from his recent appearance at GHS or any other photo.

A follow-up story about Szot’s life that appears in our June 23 editions includes the speaking engagement photo taken at GHS. When our first story was updated online this week with that same photo, a Facebook commenter thanked us for “putting up the right pic.”

The Chronicle believes the mug shot was not the de facto “wrong pic,” nor an image selected in poor taste or without discretion. The assembly photo in our archive, taken by a reporter and not our professional staff photographer, shows Szot at a distance, holding a microphone in front of a projection screen. He is not quickly identifiable in the shot. The mug shot is akin to a standard head shot, clearly showing the face of Szot. Given our archive resources and the aim to use an image that made Szot most identifiable with our initial breaking news story about his death, we selected his mug shot to run with that story.

We place tremendous value in reader feedback and always will but remind our audience of a newspaper’s mission. We strive to bring news of relevance, usefulness and interest to the community in a timely and understandable fashion. Our rationale behind selecting Szot’s mug shot reflected those principles. We are no one’s public relations machine. And – despite the many positive things that Szot was reported to have done in his life – he also was found responsible for the deaths of two people. That cannot be undone.

The Kane County Coroner’s Office and Waubonsee Community College police are investigating Szot’s death. Kane County Coroner Rob Russell said that officials must “look at toxicology and histology” because there “were no obvious signs of trauma” to Szot’s body.

Our audience can expect coverage of those findings when they are available. Again, we thank you for reading and reflecting.

SOUND OFF An amazing accomplishment I think we, as a community, should be congratulating Richard Park and Lucy Park for their wonderful accomplishment. Their second son, Andrew, was valedictorian at St. Charles East High School this year, and their older son, Alex, was a valedictorian a couple of years ago. What an amazing accomplishment for two brothers to both be the valedictorian with such a great school and with a number of other very talented and accomplished young people. I know that the Chronicle doesn’t pay much attention to academic accomplishments. I feel very confident that if two brothers had both gotten scholarships to play a sport, it would be all over the newspaper. I think we should honor these people whose sons accomplishments are academic. This is what our community needs and what our country will be made better by. Thank you.

Turning Illinois around

To the editor: Illinois has become a national punch line.

Chief Executive Magazine just came out with a report ranking Illinois one of the worst states in the nation for business, and WalletHub.com recently ranked Illinois the worst taxed state in the country with the nation’s highest combination of state and local taxes.

The Illinois way of ignoring lawsuit reform, doubling down on tax increases and the over-regulation of businesses is driving jobs and opportunities away from Illinois. The 6.6 percent unemployment rate in Illinois is tied for the worst unemployment rate in the nation.

Not surprisingly, Illinois ranks near the bottom of the nation in terms of its legal fairness – 48th worst of the 50 states – according to www.illawsuitabusewatch. org.

We cannot afford to continue to ignore the need for lawsuit reform in Illinois.

Lawmakers left town without a budget agreement, but there is still time to get a deal done.

The ultimate destination of the current policies in Springfield will be for Illinois to become the highest taxed state and the worst state for business. But, if we change course and enact meaningful lawsuit reforms, we can and will turn Illinois around.

Illinoisans should contact their legislators and ask them if they will stand with the personal injury lawyers, who

Keep it private

The hard work in life is when we fight our fantasies. We do this by not putting crazy ideas into action. Schools teach kids to act on their fantasies by pushing for all sorts of sexual options. A fantasy is fiction. It was a more organized and civilized world when fantasies remained fantasies and were kept in our heads only. We all have wild ideas. Any man or woman I know who acted on those fantasies is now regretting their wild days. Fantasies belong in our heads and should stay there. As humans, we have to determine what is best for society versus what is a fantasy. My opinion is that fantasies should stay in our heads where they belong. Don’t act on your fantasies or you will hate yourself later in life. Please teachers, teach our young children to not put into action a wild thought. It is a stupid idea to teach children to consider living out a fantasy.

you don’t fix it. Well, that should apply to the United States. Hillary Clinton jumped on the bandwagon right away – oh, we’ve got to take assault weapons off, out of the hands of the people.

Well, you know what, why monitor something if you don’t fix it? What about 11 [million] or 21 million illegal immigrants? You monitor them, but you don’t fix it. If you take the guns away from law-abiding people, do you think it’s going to fix the problem? It’s not going to fix the problem because people won’t obey the laws. If people obeyed the laws, we wouldn’t have 20 million illegal immigrants. If people obeyed the laws, we wouldn’t have drugs; we wouldn’t have to have a war on drugs. But what do we have?

Monitoring drugs, so we have a war on drugs, and we have an epidemic of drugs. They monitor cancer; they tell you one in five people will have cancer, and so they monitor cancer, but do they fix it? Do they have a cure? Heck no, it’s an epidemic. And yet they don’t call cancer an epidemic and they don’t fix it, but Ebola comes out and kills a couple hundred people or a thousand people.

It’s an epidemic, and they go nuts for it. You know, our country is so screwed up, it’s unbelievable. I hope everybody votes for Donald Trump. I hope everybody realizes that law-abiding citizens should be armed to the teeth, because otherwise we can’t protect ourselves from these criminals, these terrorists who are ... bent on destruction ... .

At the top of the ramp leading to the front entrance of our home is a huge bird cage that Phillip dragged home from a yard sale many years ago. Huge. He has put a toy turkey inside for that holiday, and a bunch of other stuffed animals or flowers inside at various times.

Imagine his surprise when a lady robin made a nest at the peak of the cage. Z watched as she laid her eggs, and now – as the eggs have hatched – he greets the chicks. And, here’s the smile, he sees to it they get fresh and juicy worms. He goes downtown to the Shell station that sells live bait, brings bird lunch home and spreads them a few at a time in the sidewalk where papa robin scoops them up to feed the brood.

I’m recovering from The Big Fall at Rosewood. (Our pastor at Baker Memorial United Methodist Church had announced before prayers on a recent Sunday that I was at Rosecrance, which is a really fine rehabilitation facility for those with drug and alcohol issues.) There are days when I look back at the good old days at the family tavern (The Oasis) and think a shot and a beer all around might brighten the day, but I am dry and rely on my vitamins and the other body supplements for my high.

Five stars and a shout out to Allison and Jill, who are the therapists making my recovery not only possible but speedy. Charming and capable women who know what I need, they also pick up the slack for every other aspect of my care. Keyword: care.

Let’s stay upbeat and giggle about the menu that read at the top: Renal – no potatoes, bananas, oranges, etc.

What was served more than once was a nice pile of mashed potatoes with an orange slice for a garnish!

Had someone take a photo for the book.

Laugh with me – hee hee hee!

Enter Rafael, the food service manager, who – beyond his handsome and charming demeanor – knows how to get the job done. Together, I check the internet for guide-

Three cheers for our food team!

I’m going to start naming other good guys, caregivers who are on the ball, helpful, and who put up with – and understand – my blunt response to things that are, as explained in the last column, Jabberwocky. Looks like I am running out of space, so I’ll name just a few now.

Skyrockets for Moises and Augie – a dynamic duo who do things in a top-notch way, cheerfully, and as if my needs matter. When my book turns into either a movie or Broadway play, these guys will be cast in starring roles.

Two ladies who are in a position to make things happen, Tess and Q, are deserving of my profound appreciation.

Speaking of skyrockets – it appears I’ll miss the Fourth of July fireworks. I grew up thinking it was the celebration of my July birthday.

Now that I know better, permit me to remind us all that we pause this once a year to arouse the spirit of the founding fathers.

There IS a framework for peace and justice, with liberty and justice for all, in the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Kane County youth ‘talk the talk’ KANE COUNTY CHRONICLE neighbors@kcchronicle.com ST. CHARLES – Three Kane County youths have earned a chance to compete at the Illinois State Fair after the Kane County 4-H Public Presentations Contest in May. Youth presented speeches and demonstrations on a variety of topics ranging from horse care to Legos to the adventures of Peter Pan. Speeches could be given in any one of the following formats: formal, illustrated, demonstration, oral interpretation or original works. At this year’s county competition, youth presented in front of fellow 4-H members, an audience and volunteer judges – educators Brock and Ruth Ann Seney, Harry Patterson, and Melissa and Fran Stephens.

Local youth from 4-H earning the honor to present at the Illinois State Fair in August included Gwen Klinkey,

15, of St. Charles, for prepared speech; Willem Vandermeij, 14, of Geneva, for illustrated speech; and Maria Ochs, 10, of Carpentersville, for oral interpretation.

Alternates for the fair include Brooke McCullough, 10, of St. Charles, for her prepared speech; and Rebecca Rickert, 16, of Elgin, for her oral interpretation piece.

Grand Champion Public Presentations honors went to McCullough for the 8 to 12 age group, with Ochs earning the Reserve Champion title at that level. In the 13-18 age group, Vandermeij took home the purple Grand Champion ribbon, with Klinkey receiving the Reserve honors.

For information on the 4-H program in Kane County, contact program coordinator Doris Braddock at dbraddoc@ illinois.edu or visit web.extension.illinois.edu/dkk.

RELEASE DATE: 6/19/2016

Milan Kundera, a Czech author, said, “Happiness is the longing for repetition.”

Happiness can come from repetition if it helps to reinforce key topics.

In this deal, for example, South is in three no-trump. After West leads the heart king, how should the play proceed?

You would prefer to be in five diamonds or five clubs, which, after a heart lead, requires one out of two finesses to work. However, unless you are sure that three no-trump is hopeless, if you spend your time playing in five of a minor, you will be a big loser in the long run.

South starts with only five top tricks: two spades, one heart, one diamond and one club. He can establish the extra winners that he needs if he takes a winning minor-suit finesse.

However, if his chosen finesse fails, the opponents will surely cash a fatal number of hearts.

As I pointed out earlier this week, the technical play is first to cash the diamond ace (you have more diamonds than clubs); then, if the king doesn’t drop, to finesse in clubs.

Here, that would have worked.

Instead, the original South won trick two with dummy’s heart ace and led the club queen. He hoped that if East had the king, he would either cover an honor with an honor, or at least think about it. But when East played low in tempo, declarer won with his ace and took the diamond finesse. Now he went down two.

How did East know what to do?

From the point count. Since West was marked with his three heart honors, South had to have the club ace.

So, East could anticipate the actual position. Well defended.

BREWING UP A CRAFT BEER EVENT St. Charles service club plans Tri-City Craft Brew Festival

By ASHLEY SLOBODA asloboda@shawmedia.com ST. CHARLES – The St. Charles Breakfast Rotary Club is brewing a weekend event that its members hope will put it in a better position to support local organizations such as Lazarus House, Tri-City Health Partnership and CASA Kane County.

The club has partnered with Brew Avenue Events to bring the Tri-City Craft Brew Festival to Lincoln Park in downtown St. Charles from 1 to 5 p.m.

June 25.

The inaugural event will feature more than 30 craft breweries from across the country, including Brooklyn Brewery from New York, Ska Brewing Company from Colorado and Woodchuck Cider from Vermont, according to the event’s page on Eventbrite.com.

Participating Illinois breweries include Penrose Brewing Company of Geneva, Crystal Lake Brewing of Crystal Lake and, the event page stated, Moody Tongue Brewing Company of Chicago.

General admission is $45 and includes 18 drink tickets and a commemorative sampling glass. The $65 VIP tickets offer the same items, as well as early admission at noon and a food voucher.

Tickets for designated drivers are $15 and include the sampling glass and unlimited soda and water. Designated drivers must be 21 or older.

Nobody younger than 21 – including babies in strollers – will be admitted.

Tom Tarvis – who is nearing the end of his year as club president – took some time to chat more about the event and the club with reporter Ashley Sloboda. The following is an edited version of their conversation.

Ashley Sloboda: What led the club to having a craft beer festival?

Tom Tarvis: The St. Charles Break-

fast Rotary is a community service organization. We have 21 members.

We meet at McNally’s for breakfast every Tuesday morning at 7. We have a 501(c)3 foundation, the St. Charles Breakfast Rotary Foundation. We had these fundraisers that were kind of stale. It was just a raffle. It was getting old, and our money was going down.

We were thinking of a different thing

Sloboda: Why did the club think a craft brew festival would be a good event to Sloboda: Is there anything else you’d have in St. Charles? like to add?

Tarvis: Alessandro knew it had Tarvis: It’s just been great to be part

other than the raffle. Alessandro Vazquez [of Brew Avenue Events] brought us this idea. This was last fall.

I would like the public to know we did all this work starting last fall to get this organized. We could not do this on our own. The money we make from it we’re going to add to our foundation and will give it away.

Sloboda: Who might benefit from the proceeds?

Tarvis: Places like Lazarus House,

Tri City Health Partnership, CASA Kane County. We have scholarship money for high school students.

Sloboda: What goals does the club have for the fundraiser?

Sloboda: What’s it been like to work with Brew Avenue Events?

Tarvis: It’s really excellent. It’s a

really good partnership. Alessandro’s doing a good job at getting the brewers. He did a really good job.

Sloboda: How are ticket sales going?

Tarvis: I would just say we’re ex-

Sloboda: Will tickets be available the day of?

Tarvis: Definitely; walk-ins are

Sloboda: Could this be an annual event if it goes well?

of this club. I love everyone in it. I think it’s going to be an event that the mayor and the people of St. Charles are going to be proud of. It’s a highclass event where people can go and have fun and have a day out with their friends and their spouses.

Downtown St. Charles Partnership Executive Director Lynne Schwartz came up with the idea for Lincoln Park. Why didn’t we think of that?

It’s the perfect place. We don’t have to shut down streets or close businesses.

Sloboda: How can people learn more about the Breakfast Rotary?

Tarvis: We have a Facebook page,

and we have a website, www.stcbreakfastrotary.org. They can call us and come to a meeting. Paula Schmidt is the membership chairman. Her phone number is 630-584-6129. We want to have people who get involved.

SUGAR GROVE – Frank Check seems like a star sitting behind his drum set, but he actually is directing Sugar Grove’s Waubonsee Community College Performing Steel Band.

Check, 33, an Aurora resident, immerses himself in all aspects of music.

He is an adjunct faculty member for Waubonsee’s music department.

Check is the steel band director, and he teaches private percussion lessons and drums. He also teaches at his Frank Check Music Studio based in his Aurora home.

At a recent Sugar Grove Public Library concert, the steel band played a variety of tunes ranging from Madonna’s “Holiday” to Earth Wind & Fire’s “Boogie Wonderland.” Check jammed on the drums with a solo during a Grateful Dead medley.

It’s unique to lead the steel band, while playing in the band, too, Check said.

“That’s where I run a band best, though,” Check added. “And then if someone is having trouble with something, say, rhythms, I can play that on one limb and keep the timing on the other – or try to cue other people. It’s

my own way of conducting.”

Check is able to take a piece of music and arrange it for all his steel band members.

The group’s sections include drums, percussion, bass pan, cello pan, double seconds, double tenor and tenor.

Katie Moritz, a Yorkville resident, plays double tenor in the steel band.

Moritz spoke to Check’s impact at Waubonsee.

“He’s definitely added a little bit more sophistication,” Moritz said. “He really pushes the group to play more difficult music and to improve on their musicianship, as opposed to just playing island tunes that are relatively easy.”

Check started playing the drums when he was 2 years old. He grew up in West Chicago and had been exposed to genres like rock, jazz, funk, gospel and world music. He has received numerous awards, including the First Chair Award from Instrumentalist Magazine, a few Woody Herman Jazz Awards, The John Philip Sousa Award and a Semper Fidelis Award For Musical Excellence from the U.S. Marine Corps.

Songwriting workshop series comes to Batavia library June 25

By BEN DRAPER bdraper@shawmedia.com BATAVIA — The Batavia Public Library will be one of the locations for the Fox Valley Music Foundation’s singer/songwriter workshop and performance series this summer.

The series kicked off June 11 at the west branch of the Aurora Public Library, 233 S. Constitution Drive, Aurora, and alternates dates with the Batavia Public Library, 10 S. Batavia Ave., Batavia, throughout the summer.

The first artist to be featured in Batavia is Scott Tipping from 1 to 3 p.m. June 25. No registration is required.

Tipping has been making music in and around Chicago for 20 years.

• CHECK Continued from page 3 He has played the drums throughout America, Canada, England, France and South Korea.

“There are many cultural differences,” Check said of his travels. “But, at the end of the day, people feel music the same way. It still comes down to if it feels good, it makes you happy.”

Audiences can enjoy other groups where Check will be keeping the beat drumming. He plays with Chicago Groove Collective, the Dan Harvey Band and the Pastiche Steel Ensemble.

Beyond practicing his skills, a big part of Check’s job as a drummer involves listening to how the song should sound.

“As a drummer, it’s my job to make sure the band stays in time ... and to

Dave Glynn of the Fox Valley Music Foundation said Tipping is one of the best and most creative musicians in the Fox Valley.

“We selected Scott for his musical experience, creativity and involvement with the Leland Bluebird Sessions project, as this particular workshop is part of the Fox Valley Music Foundation’s Blues Month activities,” Glynn said. “Scott is a songwriter in his own right, writing, performing and touring with Cornmeal, a national act.

Scott has also played with Los Lobos, Mighty Blue Kings and Backyard Tire Fire.”

Tipping said he was honored to be included in the series.

“It’s a cool event. The Fox Valley Music Foundation has enlisted a bunch of great musicians to talk about make sure I cue the band on an ending, or the beginning, or whatever,” Check said. “It’s so crucial for me to just be 100 percent confident in how the song goes – not just as a drummer but form-wise.”

When it comes to playing in bands like Chicago Groove Collective, Check knows what his role is as the drummer.

“That’s part of my job – [setting] everybody up so they know where we’re going, or to aid; just to confirm where we’re going,” Check said. “Those guys are so good in that band that it’s not like they need me to tell them where to go. But it’s just a reinforcement thing.”

Jeff Stitely, a musical colleague, pinpointed what makes Check unique.

“He’s got a great feel,” Stitely said.

“It feels so good. It just makes you want to dance whether he’s playing calypso, rock, funk, R&B and soul, Motown.

Whatever style he’s playing, it just feels really good.”

songwriting and perform,” he said.

Tipping said he will talk about the various projects he has completed, as well as songwriting basics.

“Steve Warrenfeltz and I just completed ‘The Leland Bluebird Sessions’ album. Although that record is a tribute album to previously recorded music, there was a lot of arranging and rearranging that falls into a type of writing category,” Tipping said.

“I also will be talking a bit about a record I just made with Peter Himmelman that is being produced by Steve Berlin [of Los Lobos]. The idea there is talking about what can happen when songs get in the studio, how they can morph, how they can change.

Tipping said he got involved with the Fox Valley Music Foundation through Warrenfeltz and is excited to

share his experiences in Batavia.

“I haven’t done a whole lot of this, but I really enjoy it when I get asked,” he said. “It’s a lot of fun.”

Upcoming artists in the singer/ songwriter series include Dave Ramont on July 9 at the West Branch of the Aurora library, Noah Gabriel on July 23 at the Batavia library, Kevin Trudo on Aug. 13 back at the West Branch, and ending on Aug. 27 at the Batavia library with Gerald Dowd.

“The foundation is responsible for so many cool things this community has, as far as music and culture,” Tipping said. “They do some great things, and this series follows that past. The first show was with Greg Boerner [June 11], and I have heard nothing but incredible things about his performance.”

Directed by Amber Mitchell, “Steel Magnolias” will be performed June 24 to 26 at Stageworks, 204 Dearborn Court, Unit 104, Geneva. but I have not done anything in 15 years,” said Kaplan, of South Elgin.

“It’s wonderful to be back on stage again and working with a wonderful ensemble and director.”

To prepare for her role as a hairdresser, the cast worked with a real hairdresser, Kaplan said.

“What I love about Amber is, she is very much focused on the process and the learning,” Kaplan said. “And she makes sure, no matter who she is working with, that it’s a teaching opportunity. I really like that.”

Mitchell said she opened Stageworks in 2012 in an industrial park, but has been teaching theater for years.

“It’s a very small space, very intimate, usually around 49 to 50 seats,” Mitchell said. “It’s not about the amount of seats, it’s about the performances.”

Stageworks offers both children and adult productions, and Mitchell also teaches and gives private lessons in voice, piano and guitar, she said.

“We work with all different ability levels, and I try to integrate them together so people learn from each other,” Mitchell said.

Show times for “Steel Magnolias” are 7:30 p.m. June 24 and 25 and 3 p.m. June 26. Tickets are $15 per person. Tickets can be reserved by calling 630-750-1010 or visiting www. stageworkstheatrearts.com.

GENEVA – The six-member, all-female cast of an upcoming production of “Steel Magnolias” includes three women with connections to Geneva School District 304 – one who works for the district and two teachers in a special education co-op.

Kristy Poteete-Kriegermeier, a spokeswoman for District 304, Mindy Kaplan and Connie Gush, who both teach with the Mid-Valley Special Education Cooperative, are part of the cast putting on the show at Stageworks, which is located at 204 Dearborn Court, Unit 104, in Geneva.

“Steel Magnolias” is a 1987 comedy-drama about the bond shared among women in a small town in the South and how they cope with a death.

A movie by the same name was adapted from the play in 1989, starring Sally Field, Dolly Parton, Julia Roberts, Daryl Hannah, Olympia Dukakis and Shirley MacLaine.

Poteete-Kriegermeier plays M’Lynn, whose daughter Shelby has diabetes and gets pregnant despite being warned against it.

As this is Poteete-Kriegermeier’s first major role in a stage production, she credits director Amber Mitchell, owner of Stageworks, with helping her prepare for it.

“I did a very small role with her in ‘A Christmas Carol,’” Poteete-Kriegermeier said. “I went with my daughter, who wanted to try out, and [Mitchell] said she could use another adult actress. I had a small part, like five lines. So when this ‘Steel Magnolias’ came along, she reached out to me, and I auditioned. ... It’s a big role, but every role is big – it’s very ensemble-driven.”

Cast members are also working on their Southern accents, Poteete-Kriegermeier said.

“I’m from Southern Illinois, and my mother is actually from Atlanta,” Poteete-Kriegermeier said. “It’s been a lot of listening to YouTube videos of people from the South and practicing a lot. I’m still working on it. I hope it’s authentic and convincing.”

Gush, who plays the grouchy Ouiser Boudreaux character, said she has participated in community theater in the past. “‘Steel Magnolias’ ... it’s funny, yet it’s very serious, and it hits women’s feelings and issues – and that’s why I enjoy it,” she said. “The entire set is in the beauty salon, with minor scene changes all in the one place.”

Kaplan, 49, plays Truvy Jones, in whose beauty shop all the drama occurs.

“I do have experience in theater,

Jericho Road and Roberta Scott’s Bunsteads Through third grade, I lived in the country, on Jericho Road, just east of Ashe Road in Sugar Grove. Kids in my class called me “Bucky Bear” because of my rather large front teeth.

But, I was flattered since everyone knows bears are cute and cuddly.

The kids living on the west side of Ashe Road went to Big Rock School.

At the same time every morning, our buses passed going opposite directions. The kids looking out those windows seemed like foreigners to me, heading off to some unknown land.

I was sure nothing good happened on that side of Ashe Road.

At the end of my third-grade year, my parents built a house just a scooch down Jericho Road – but far enough that it was on the wrong side of Ashe – which plopped me head first in the Big Rock School District.

“I am a Sugar Grove girl,” I cried to my parents. “This is never going to work.” I begged them to change their minds, but they didn’t.

All summer I sulked and pleaded and howled at the moon. But no matter, at the beginning of the new school year in the fall, I was going to the dark side.

So, on my first morning of fourth grade, I had to get on the bus that goes the wrong way. My happy Sugar

Mr. Beels introduced me to the lunch ladies and told me we were having “bunsteads” for lunch.

“All the students love them,” he said. But, I had never heard of such a thing. Who were these people? This was never going to work.

Family recipes from Italy, Sicily Many professional chefs without hesitation cite the debt they owe to their grandmothers for stirring their interest in the culinary arts.

One such chef, Bill Abruzzo, makes that acknowledgment clear in his cookbook “In the Footsteps of Nonna” (Pelican).

He grew up in New Jersey but spent more than 35 years creating this useful volume based on recipes gleaned from kin and friends during travels in southern Italy and Sicily.

Abruzzo, a personal chef, caterer and food blogger, grows organic herbs and Italian varietal vegetables on his small farm at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia.

His recipe for Orecchiette with Pork Sausage, Swiss Chard, Leeks and Green Olives (below) has become an instant hit in our house Other chapters are devoted to antipasti, pizza, soups, salads, vegetables, meat, frutti di mare and desserts – interspersed with mouthwatering food photos.

TOM’S COOKBOOK LIBRARY Tom Witom Oricchiette With Pork Sausage, Swiss Chard, Leeks and Green Olives Serves four adults

Olive oil, for sauteeing 1 1/4 lbs. Italian pork sausage, removed from the casing 1/2 Spanish or Vidalia onion, diced 2 leeks, trimmed and diced Salt and black pepper to taste 5 cloves garlic, sliced 2 lbs. Swiss chard, stalks removed and chopped 2 cups water 1/4 cup pitted, halved green Cerignnola or Castelvetrano olives (available at Italian groceries) 2 Tbl. butter 1 lb. orecchiette (ear-shaped pasta) Grated or shaved Pecorino Romano cheese, for topping Brush the bottom of a 5-1/2 quart frying pan with olive oil and set it over medium-low heat. Brown the

sausage, breaking it up with the back of a wooden spoon. When the sausage is fully cooked, drain off any excess grease and set the sausage to the side.

Coat the bottom of the frying pan generously with olive oil and set it over low heat. Add the onions and leeks, season with salt and black pepper and saute for 10 minutes or until soft and caramelized. Add the garlic and continue sauteeing for another minute.

Add the Swiss chard and the water, which will allow the greens to steam. Raise the heat to medium and continue sauteeing for 7 minutes or until the Swiss chard is wilted and tender. Then stir in the olives, sausage and butter and removed the frying pan from the heat. Fill a 12-quart pot 3/4 of the way with water, add 3 tablespoons of salt, and bring to a boil. Add the pasta. When the pasta is al dente, set the frying pan back over low heat and transfer the pasta to the frying pan with a skimmer. Toss everything together and saute for two minutes to marry the flavors of the sauce to the pasta. If necessary, add some pasta cooking water or olive oil to moisten and adjust the seasoning. Serve hot, topped with grated or shaved Pecorino Romano cheese.

Commonly asked questions from help desk One of the many services that University of Illinois Extension master gardeners provide for Kane County is our help desk. Homeowners can call or come in and ask about gardening issues they are having around their yard or home. We do research to find how to best correct or improve your garden challenges, using all the articles and research the University of Illinois makes available to us.

I love working the help desk because we get so many interesting – and sometimes puzzling – inquiries, and it is fun to help all of you solve your mysteries. We both learn something in the process. Now in my third year as a master gardener, I’ve seen and heard a wide variety of intriguing scenarios but there is an astonishing amount of repeat questions. Here are a few of the most commonly asked questions and answers:

Question: Every year I plant annuals, vegetables or perennials in my garden and they don’t always make it or they don’t perform as promised. What am I doing wrong?

Answer: The first question I ask

when anyone says their plants don’t survive or aren’t performing is always, “When was your house built?” We’ve had so much growth in the Tri-Cities with beautiful new

LEARNING TO GROW Jody Lay subdivisions. But the first thing they do when they excavate a new subdivision is to scrape away the top layer of nutrient-rich black soil, usually taking it down to the clay. Anytime a yard or garden has dead spots or underperforming areas the first thing to check are the soil conditions.

Amending the soil before you plant can do wonders for your flowers and vegetables. You can submit your soil for testing to best assess what your soil needs, but the addition of some peat, mushroom compost or other organic matter can do wonders to improve soil conditions. You can also get a list from the master gardener office on plants that are more successful in clay soils.

Q: My tree or shrub has dead branches, die-back or doesn’t appear to be growing. What should I do?

A: Believe it or not, we are still

witnessing the long-term effects of the drought of 2012. When woody plants are deprived of regular watering for a prolonged period of time, it stunts their growth and damages their vascular system. The older and

more established plants are, the better equipped they are for annual fluctuations in rainfall. When die-back occurs you should prune out dead branches and keep new plants on a regular watering schedule to help them build a healthy root system.

Q: What are the black spots on my maple leaves?

A: Tar spots. Last year was a crazy

year for tar spot, and although it doesn’t technically hurt the tree, it slows photosynthesis by decreasing the green surface area of the leaves.

Again, this can slow growth on newer trees, or– in extreme cases – the tree cannot store enough nutrients to survive a harsh winter. Thankfully, we had a mild winter, so the maple trees weren’t hurt too badly.

If you have questions for a master gardener, the help desk is open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday. Call 630-584-6166 or stop by at 535 S. Randall Road in St. Charles.

• COOKING Continued from page 8

Maybe it was the day Lee Butt was laughing so hard at lunch that a noodle from the soup she was eating came out her nose. Now, that’s funny, I don’t care what side of Ashe you live on.

Or maybe it was because of all the times the lunch ladies made those glorious bunsteads.

But, if I had to choose one moment, it would be the day, toward the end of that year, that Mr. Beels entered our room, and sadly told us that Lance Cpl. Michael P. Finley had been killed in action. Unlike many of the other kids, I had never met him, but I knew he was a part of me. And, 50 years later, he still is.

I’ve tried, over the years, to make Mrs. Scott’s bunsteads from memory, but they were never quite right. I googled them once and was surprised that recipes for them existed. I thought it was just a Big Rock thing. But, they weren’t as good either.

A few years ago, a friend of mine found the official Roberta Scott recipe for bunsteads, and I am happy to share it with you.

They are still divine.

I’ve stayed close to my Big Rock gang.

Moo Cow died of liver cancer in 2004, and Lee Butt and I flew to Colorado for her funeral. I gave her eulogy. My son named his oldest daughter after her.

Mike McCrea owns a plumbing business in Hinckley and keeps everything at The Catering Gourmets running smoothly. Ten years after high school, he joined the volunteer fire department. The rescue team was called to a home where an elderly lady had passed away. It was Mrs. Larson.

Mike held her hand as he helped carry her to the ambulance.

Mike fixed my dish sprayer wand for me the other day, and I mentioned I was writing this column on the famous bunsteads. He told me he and his wife have tried to copy them, but they never came out very well. When I told him I had the official Roberta Scott recipe, he was a happy man.

As he turned to leave, I said, “Hey, Mike, is it OK with you if I mention in my column that you kissed Mrs. Larson every day? He looked at me and said, “Sure, why not? She was a nice lady.”

Roberta Scott’s Bunsteads

¼ pound American Cheese, chopped 1 can drained tuna fish 2 tablespoons chopped onion 2 tablespoons pickle relish 3 hard boiled eggs (chopped) ½ cup mayonnaise 6 hot dog buns (buttered)

Mix all the ingredients together and fill each hot dog bun. Wrap each in foil and heat 30 minutes in 250 degree oven.

(Next to McDonalds)

I’ve got nothing. Not a darned thing.

Nothing funny or moving or witty or wise to give you this week. Sorry.

Oh, I’m sure my kids were funny and moving and witty and wise (well, weisenheimers, maybe), but really, this week, such moments didn’t get much air. Instead, they were smothered by the bigger stuff. What bigger stuff? Oh, take your pick. Guns and alligators and vile words, and then more guns. Everywhere we turned, more horrifying news. More unbelievable noise. More gobbledygook. More garbage being uttered, being consumed, being believed. It’s really just too much. I find I’ve been holding my breath, forgetting to exhale. Yes, these things, they take my breath away. My children, my children.

Aside from feeling breathless, I’m sad. And maybe a bit numb. But perhaps “perplexed” is a more apt de-

Jennifer DuBose scription for the way I’ve been feeling lately? Yes. Do you ever just stop and shake your head and marvel at how surely we must be spinning in an alternate universe? And that somehow, someday, we’ll all suddenly wake up, brush the sleep from our eyes, pat each other on the back, and marvel at what a bizarre ride THAT was? I sure do. I mean, why can’t we all just get our acts together and be kind? Just be nice? Don’t be right, or first, or fastest.

Just be nice. In every moment, in every encounter, just be nice. How hard is that?

It really is that simple. It’s a choice.

If enough of us choose it, maybe the others will follow, eventually. It’s too late for some, those seeds have already taken root. But maybe the rest of us?

We could choose it. We could agree to jump off this runaway train, all at once. Together. It could happen, if we wanted it badly enough. Until that time comes, though, there will be more guns. More noise. More jockeying for position. More everything. Oh, my children.

I don’t know about you, but if this keeps up I’ll pass out from the sheer weight of it all, unless I learn to catch my breath from time to time.

You know, take a break from the grief and worry.

The other day, after several hours of toiling over the tedious, regular, stuff-of-life-that-must-be-done, I took a dip in a pool, a pool I’d not known

existed even a mere few hours before.

It was like going on a mini-vacation. In a setting so lovely and unexpected, so serene and quiet, but for the birdsong, the occasional splash, the random giggles from the girls in my charge. It was heaven.

As I floated aimlessly, the cool water lapping at my shoulders, the tension I’d not known I’d been holding slipping down and out through my toes, I realized that I’d had no idea how stressed I’d been feeling. What a relief. Lesson learned. But oh, how I hope we do wake up soon from the spells we’ve been under, before it’s too late for the rest of our children.

Shift workers need consistent sleep Dear Readers: In a recent column, I dis-

cussed the health hazards of shift workers – particularly those who work evening and night shifts. More than 9 million people in the United States are shift workers.

When I was in medical training, boy, was I a shift worker! During my internship, every other weekend I would wake up on Saturday morning and drive to the hospital.

The next time my head touched a pillow was Monday evening. In between, it was nonstop.

I’m glad those days are over for me. And that they’re also over for today’s interns, who get a lot more sleep than I and my colleagues used to. That’s a good thing, given what we now know about how sleep deprivation affects a person’s ability to think • and how important it is for doctors to be able to think.

Nevertheless, I’ll admit that I sometimes reminisce with colleagues that I trained with, and compare our experience to that of today’s trainees. When we reminisce, we refer to ourselves as the “iron men” (few women were in medicine then). And we refer to the experience of today’s trainees as “lifestyle-intensive.”

Some shift workers have trouble concentrating and focusing during the evenings or nights they are working. Once, when I was an intern and feeling like a zombie, I asked a well-rested colleague how I appeared to him. He replied, “You’re coherent, but that’s about it.”

Sleep specialists that I talk to recommend what my grandmother would have recommended: a strong cup of coffee, early in the shift. (My grandmother might also have said, “You need to be a sleep specialist to give such advice?”)

However, caffeine doesn’t do it for everyone. Another option is a stimulant medicine called modafinil. One careful study of

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff over 200 shift workers showed that 74 percent of those given this medicine, compared to just 36 percent of those given a sugar pill, had at least minimal improvement in their ability to concentrate. However, many of them remained impaired despite the treatment.

It is really important for shift workers who need to get their sleep during the daytime to do the following: • Work with your employer to make your shift schedule steady: not nights for several days, then evenings, then nights, then days.

Make it the same shift every day for several weeks.

• Make sure your bedroom has strong light-blocking shades and that no sunlight creeps into the room from around the edges of the shades. Even a little sunlight can discourage your brain from sleeping.

• Reduce any noise. For many shift workers, that involves the use of soft rubber earplugs.

• If you can’t sleep for at least seven consecutive daytime hours, try at least to get four hours shortly after arriving home, and another three to four hours later in the day.

• If you can’t sleep the minute you arrive home • for example, if you have to help get the kids off to school • then begin sleeping right afterward.

• Try to make your sleep schedule a regular one, starting and ending at the same time(s) each day.

Dear Abby:

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips

Stinging in Nevada Dear Still Stinging: The first time it happened,

you should have quietly mentioned to the medical assistant that she embarrassed you, and asked her please not to do it again. When it happened a second time, you should have spoken to the doctor about it. You are far from the only person who is sensitive about weight.

If I were that physician, I’d certainly want to know why patients were disappearing from my practice. Wouldn’t you?

Dear Abby: I do a lot of home canning, and last year our farm was very profitable. I canned more than 300 jars of jellies, juices, apple sauce and soups. I gave many of these away as gifts.

My dilemma is, most of the time no one gives me the jars back. Canning jars are the most expensive part of canning. Would you please help me get the word out to return the jars when they are empty? – Debbie in Derby,

N.Y. Dear Debbie: I’m glad to put out the word.

But don’t you think it would be more effective if you simply asked that the jars be returned if the recipients want to continue receiving these generous gifts from you? Attaching a “Please return to (blank)” label might help.

Dr. Wallace: I’m a B-plus student and have no doubt I will be a college freshman in September 2017. My problem is I’m always short of money even with an allowance.

I’ve got a chance to get a good part-time summer job this summer, but if I accept it, I’d also have to work 10 hours a week (Monday through Friday) once school starts in the fall.

This will be my senior year and my parents are not too happy about me working when school is in session because they feel that my studies should be my work and that I should maintain excellent grades.

They also think that I’ll have plenty of time to work and earn money after I finish my education.

My parents didn’t say that I couldn’t accept this job, but suggested that it would not be ideal to take it. What is your view about this as a former educator and high school principal? – Bev,

Orlando, Fla. Bev: The educational com-

munity is evenly split when it comes to students working parttime when school is in session.

However, most Americans believe part-time work experience that does not hinder schoolwork is good for teens. They believe young people who are employed part-time learn about the “real”

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace world, learn how to accept responsibility, learn the value of money, and most of all, stay out of trouble.

I encourage teens to work part-time, provided the student is not placed in a stressful work environment and works no more than three hours on school days and no more than 15 hours a week, including weekends.

Many Asian cultures frown on students working part-time while attending school, but for Americans it is a common philosophy.

In a study by sociologists at City College New York, more than two-thirds of all 16- and 17-year-old American high school students had part-time employment while attending classes. The study also revealed that only 20 percent of Western European students had part-time jobs, but less than 2 percent of South Korean and Japanese students had part-time jobs.

Dr. Wallace: I’m 13 and my parents make me go to bed at 9 p.m. on school nights because they say that growing teens need a minimum of 10 hours of sleep every night. On the weekends, I

must be in bed by 10 and I can’t get up until 8 a.m. or later. They keep telling me that any extra sleep I get will help me later on, when I won’t be able to get a full 10 hours.

My problem is that I don’t like spending 10 hours in bed.

Instead of feeling refreshed when I get up, I feel groggy. How many hours of sleep does a growing 13-year-old boy really need? My parents read your column, so I know they will change my in-bed time if you feel 10 hours is overkill. – Zack, Mobile, Ala. Zack: Sleep is essential for all of us, especially for maturing teens, but a rigidly imposed sleeping schedule that leaves a person feeling groggy and un-refreshed is not a boon to health.

Sleep can’t be stored up in the same manner that food (fat) can, so an excess of sleep is essentially wasted.

Simply put, everyone is different. Not all teens require the same amount of sleep to function at maximum energy. People should listen to what their own bodies tell them they need.

However, doctors who specialize in sleep disorders do say that, as a rule of thumb, most 13-yearolds should have nine hours of sleep per night.

I have fought obesity all of my adult life, and my weight has yo-yoed over the years. My problem is, when I go to the doctor’s office and I am taken to the exam area, the scale is right out in the open where other patients come and go as well as all the office personnel.

Mind you, I don’t care if I am weighed in the presence of people walking around – if they don’t peek. However, when the medical assistant is done weighing me, she reads the scale out loud. I have felt humiliated when other patients are walking past. I have put up with this for years.

Recently, this medical assistant weighed me and I just knew she was going to “announce” my weight. This time there was a man I could tell was a patient, standing nearby at the reception window staring intently at me getting weighed. Because I was sure the M.A. was going to say it out loud, I started to cough to try to muffle the sound of her voice. It worked, but then she acted irritated because of my coughing, so she repeated it loudly. I was very embarrassed, to say the least. When the doctor saw me, I was afraid to say anything as I didn’t want to get anybody in trouble.

I graduated from a medical assistant school many years ago and I remember the registered nurse who was our instructor taught us to never say out loud somebody’s weight when you weigh him or her. It only makes common sense.

I no longer want to go back to that doctor’s office.

Do you have any advice for me when this happens again? I say again because it happens at other doctor’s offices I visit as well. I am at a loss here. I would appreciate your input. – Still

I encourage teens to work part-time
