Rosanne Balance, petting her cat, Misty, has started a feline-focused pet-sitting business in Sugar Grove. of cats and dogs. Balance ended up falling in love with a beagle puppy after one of her visits, and the next day she returned only to find out the puppy already was adopted.

“I was crushed, but later that year my brother brought home an all-white kitten,” Balance said. “He was in the Navy, and one of the nurse’s cats had a litter. He brought his scrawny, little kitten home in a cardboard box, and we named her Mitzi.”

Her family and friends knew Balance loved animals and often would have her as their cat sitter when she

was growing up. Local relatives and friends relied on her for taking care of their pets while they were away.

Balance’s passion for taking care of animals – specifically cats – continued into her adulthood, and a new business and career were born.

Before starting Purrfect Paws, Balance was involved in a pet therapy program at Delnor Glen Senior Living in St. Charles, where she would bring a friend’s cat named Fred to the program in hopes Fred would be able to brighten a patient’s day. Balance remembers all the patients who interacted with Fred

having smiles on their faces when they would pet him. Fred brought a joy to their lives just by spending time with them, she said.

Balance said she chose to offer her services to cat owners since she’s drawn to cats for their smaller size and fun and different personalities.

“All animals are special, but I gravitate to cats for their smaller size, their unique personalities and calming effect,” Balance said. “A purring cat on your lap is very comforting, and watching how cats interact and play is so much fun to watch.”

Village approves economic development agreement with Culver’s

By NATALIE JUNS editorial@kcchronicle.com SUGAR GROVE – The Sugar Grove Village Board approved an economic development agreement Jan. 24 with Culver’s restaurant franchisee Jeff Newkirk.

The agreement was passed 5-1, with a lone “no” vote from trustee Ted Koch.

Similar to the economic development agreement the village made with Ace Hardware and Dunkin’ Donuts,

the village agreed to return a maximum of $105,000 in retail sales tax collected from Culver’s. The agreement will last for a total of seven years, or until the maximum return is met.

During the first two years, Culver’s will receive 75 percent of the municipal portion of the sales tax. In years 3 to 5 of the agreement, Culver’s will receive 50 percent of the retail sales tax, and in years 6 to 7, Culver’s will receive 25 percent of the retail sales tax.

The sales tax refund to Culver’s

will help provide assistance for property improvements, including constructing a driveway through the detention basin to Division Drive for Lot 1 in the Landings Commercial Center. The sales tax refund also will help Culver’s construct an upgraded model of the restaurant.

Sugar Grove Village President Sean Michels said he is looking forward to having a Culver’s restaurant in the village.

“I was excited when Culver’s approached me,” Michels said. “I don’t

frequent Culver’s, but when I do go, I enjoy eating there. I think it will be a nice alternative for families to come and have a sit-down meal together.”

Michels said Culver’s also will benefit athletic teams that want to enjoy ice cream after a game.

“I was approached by more people for this development than others,” he said. “The building won’t be the typical white and blue. It will have stone.

Culver’s will be a good complement to the west side of Route 47 with Walgreens and Dunkin’ Donuts close by.”

SUGAR GROVE – After many conversations with friends, neighbors and family, Rosanne Balance decided to start her own cat-sitting business in November.

Purrfect Paws of Sugar Grove recognizes the need for more care and attention for cats. The newly founded cat-sitting service is serving the Sugar Grove community and offering residents an opportunity to have their pet cats taken care of during the day or while they are away on vacation.

Cat owners realize there is a great need for cats to get attention while their owners are away, just like dogs.

Purrfect Paws provides all the essentials that a cat needs in their owner’s absence, such as food, fresh water, play time, litter box cleaning, hair brushing and the attention cats need and want.

Balance, a Sugar Grove resident, also offers other services that can be agreed upon between her and her clients. These additional services can include bringing in mail, watering plants, turning on/off lights, etc.

She decided to start Purrfect Paws because she knew there were people like her who agreed cats need more attention than most people think while their owners are away.

“Too many people think cats are totally independent and don’t require companionship,” Balance said. “This is a misconception. Besides the necessities provided like food and water, cats need to feel comfortable when their owner is away and [need] help keeping stress levels down.”

Balance’s love of animals began at a young age. There was always a pet cat, fish and turtle at Balance’s home.

Her love of animals was further encouraged by her mother, who would bring her to Puppy Palace in Chicago, where she could visit and pet all kinds

SUGAR GROVE – Aaron Lawler has a lot going on in his life right now.

He’s a professor, a newly published author and he hopes to add “school board member” to his resume after the April 4 election.

Lawler has been an educator for 15 years in Aaron Lawler a number of different roles and schools, but now he’s a fulltime humanities professor at Waubonsee Community College.

“I like learning about different people and cultures – their stories, music, art literature, the science about them,” Lawler said. “I like to survey everything about them. I don’t like to dig deep into one thing, but [rather] learn a lot about everything. That started at a young age for me, and [it’s] what drove me to this particular subject matter.”

In his spare time, he’s always had time to write. As a young child, his mother would tell him stories and taught him how to tell stories.

“I’ve always enjoyed writing – and have published peer-reviewed studies

News to your phone Sign up for breaking news text and email alerts at KCChronicle.com/subscribe. in humanities, technology, game theory and education – but I took all my creativity and finally sat down to write my first young-adult fiction novel.”

The novel is titled “The Marvelous Paracosm of Fitz Faraday and the Shapers of the Id” and is a murder mystery. There are three main characters who have to work together to solve a murder. But the kids have to use supernatural powers and some science fiction to help them do so.

Lawler wrote the novel with a classroom curriculum in mind – one that is available for purchase.

The curriculum is aligned to the Common Core state standards for grades seven through 10, with a suggested schedule for a 12-day literacy study using the reading strategy – a compare and contrast structure. Each lesson includes collaborative and active learning strategies, supplemental resources, handouts, assessments and additional readings. The book is examined with Mark Twain’s “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer” and nonfiction articles included. Students can chart their growth in journals and learning logs.

The novel, curriculum package and signing dates are all available on Lawler’s website at writeraaronjlawler. strikingly.com/.

His next journey in life is hopefully becoming a member of Kaneland District 302’s Board of Education. The board’s vision is to prepare learners for the community, college and their career.

Lawler said he has a simple plan to implement this vision: “I want to serve so that I can share my time and my talents with the community; I want to represent the needs of different groups as a parent, an educator, an activist, and a faculty member of our community college; and I want to create stronger bonds between all stakeholders, and be your voice for an education that serves the needs of tomorrow.”

As a parent, teacher and community professor, Lawler said he knows what needs to be done for the education of tomorrow – the education that serves the community, prepares children for college, and readies young adults for the workforce.

“I’ve crafted my entire career on wearing different hats and succeeding,” Lawler said. “I know my knowledge as a parent, teacher, educator, and now college professor will help the school board implement their vision, create positive pathways and help come up with a plan to make it all happen.”

By BRENDA SCHORY ST. CHARLES TOWNSHIP – The death of a 48-year-old man who died in custody Jan. 24 at the Kane County Adult Justice Center is being attributed to a cardiac event, officials stated in a news release.

The Kane County coroner confirmed that a Jan. 25 preliminary autopsy of Elgin resident Alan Span showed the death was cardiac-related, and that toxicology is pending.

Span, who was being held in jail since July on $380,000 bail for charges of home invasion and delivery of a controlled substance, was pronounced dead at 2:15 a.m. at the jail, the release stated.

Span would have had to post 10 percent

or $38,000 bond in order to be released, officials said.

Corrections staff were alerted by Span’s cellmates that he was having a medical emergency, the release stated. Alan Span Staff provided emergency lifesaving measures, but they were unsuccessful, the release stated.

The Fox River & Countryside Fire/ Rescue District also responded, the release stated.

Illinois State Police were called to investigate because the death occurred while Span was detained in custody, the release stated. A preliminary investigation did not show that foul play was involved in Span’s death, the release stated.

I always love to peek behind the curtain and see what is going on behind the scenes.

While photographing a rehearsal of Batavia High School’s production of “The Legend of Robin Hood?” I asked whether I could have access to the dressing room, where the actors were applying their makeup in preparation for a dress rehearsal.

As predicted, it was a flurry of activity with actors going through racks of costumes and almost every mirror spoken for as they painted their faces. After asking whether it was all right if I took photos – after one of the students verified all actors were decent and clothed – I think every one of them answered with a resounding, “YES.” Like most stage players I’ve met, they were not shy around the camera and welcomed the extra publicity.

Pictured are juniors Emily Smith (left) and Mary Clare Perreault applying their makeup for a dress rehearsal of the school’s Black Box Theater production of “The Legend of Robin Hood?”

LEADING CAUSE OF VISION LOSS IN CHILDREN New research finds that sports-related eye injuries cause about 30,000 emergency room visits in the United States each year, and that sports eye injuries are the largest cause of vision loss in children.The incidence of these injuries peaks during adolescent years. Researchers also found the top three causes of eye injuries among young males to be basketball (23%), baseball or softball (14%),and shooting air guns or paintball guns (12%).One-fifth of baseball-related injuries involve bone fractures around the eye’s orbit. Basketball injuries that result from elbowing also cause similar fractures. Clearly, children and adolescents need to wear sports eyewear that protects against such injuries and prevents vision loss that could damage any future ability to play sports.

Your family’s eyes are an important asset and protecting them is our goal. Whether you need prescription glasses to improve your vision to 20/20 or glasses to protect the eyes during physical activity, EYEDENTITY VISION CARE, LLC, has its eyes on your eyes! To schedule an eye exam, please call 630-232-4211. Our professional staff is experienced in all aspects of vision care and is committed to providing exceptional customer service. We are located at 309 W.Hamilton St. Complete vision care for all ages.

Sculpture in the Park: The Delnor Woods Edition St. Charles is known for many things, not the least of which is Sculpture in the Park. Hosted by the St. Charles Park District, the annual event showcases sculptural arts in innovative fashion.

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

It also is over, at least for this year.

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

Luckily, our area is rich – not only in sculptors, but also in other artisans.

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

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

GOOD NATURED Pam Otto

Note to readers This column originally was published Nov. 14, 2015.

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

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

I was bent, at a somewhat awkward angle, over the tree and saw and had thoughts of beavers occupying much of my attention. But I happened to look up, for just a second. And that’s when I saw it. Delnor Woods’ answer to Sculpture in the Park.

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

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

As if sculpted with a chisel, a blue beech – also known as a musclewood tree – bore eye-catching, ecru-hued indentations at intervals along its steel-gray bark. Devoid of branches, the trunk rose up at an odd tilt and reached toward the sky. Courtesy of the morning sun, a long shadow reached beyond the mini-monument and toward the adjacent red oak.

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

The topmost part of the trunk, right where it had formerly sprouted into branches, was snipped clean. The height at that spot, I estimated, was a good 51/2 feet above the ground.

Now, beavers aren’t small creatures, by any means. An average adult weighs around 50 pounds and individuals as big as 90 pounds have been recorded. But a beaver that stands over 5 feet tall? I think not.

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

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

enough time walking on land, let alone climbing a tree. They’re bottom heavy.

Their forelimbs aren’t long enough.

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

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

As intriguing as the handiwork was, I did feel a little bad for the trees. This unusual species is characterized by smooth bark and, as naturalist Dick Young described, “undulating, musclelike ripples in the trunk and branches.”

I can think of only a few places in Kane County where musclewoods grow. And now, thanks to the beavers, there’s one fewer spot to go see them.

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

Equipped with incisors that actually sharpen with use, beavers can make quick work of trees – especially those with thin bark. This “sculpture” is all that remains of a blue beech, or musclewood, tree at Delnor Woods Park in St. Charles.

assigned to the West Coast Flying Training Command as an instructor pilot in the PT-17 Stearman and eventually the B-24 and B-17.

After the war ended, Dale began a 40+ year association with the Northrop Corporation as an aircraft engineer. He relocated his family to Blackberry Woods in Sugar Grove in 1966, departing in 1990 for a return to California after retirement from Northrop.

Dale lives vividly in the memories of his loving family; his beloved wife of 70 years, Fae (Moore) Huss; daughter, Jo (Larry) Sanders (KHS Class of ‘74) of Marion IL; daughter, Holly Huss (KHS Class of ‘78) of Chandler AZ; and son, Jon (Susan) Huss (KHS Class of ‘80) of Colorado Springs CO; as well as grandchildren, Sarah, James, Jordan, and Joel; and sister, A. Joy Huss of Minneapolis, MN. Because of his children, Dale was an ardent fan of the Kaneland High School football, basketball, cheerleading, and wrestling programs. He was an active committee member and cook for the early years of the Sugar Grove Corn Boil and his family believes he was the first documented “Superfan” of Ream’s Meat Market in Elburn.

Dale was proud to have served his country as a member of the nation’s greatest generation and his love for aviation and aircraft defined him from a young boy all the way to his nineties.

His family held a Service of Remembrance in Tempe on January 21, 2017.

Dr. Francis C. Dunn Jr., age 79, died on the evening of January 18th, 2017 with his family present at his bedside.

He was born January 27, 1937 in Cedar Rapids, Iowa to Francis Christopher Dunn Sr. and Henrietta Lundy. He married Catherine Lorraine Brannan on August 12, 1967 in Baltimore, Maryland. Dr. Dunn attended the University of Pennsylvania, receiving a Bachelor of Science degree before graduating from Johns Hopkins University Medical School in 1963. Dr. Dunn interned at Johns Hopkins before completing his residency at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. He was a member of The American College of Surgeons, The American Society of Cataract Surgeons, The American Medical Association and The Doctors Mayo Society. Dr. Dunn also served in the United States Army as a flight surgeon from 1964 until 1966, attaining the rank of Captain.

Frank was extremely devoted to Kate, his deeply loved wife, and to his family and was a faithful, life-long Catholic. He practiced medicine for 38 years and truly loved his patients. Frank had close relationships with his nine grandchildren and always had fun activities planned when they visited or went on vacations with Grandmom and Pop. He loved talking with people and saw the best in everyone. He never knew a stranger. Even a trip to the gym was about socializing, not exercising. Frank was an avid sailor, hunter and fisherman and enjoyed model trains and photography.

D-302 board reviews textbook Board also approves sheriff’s office contract

By CHRIS WALKER editorial@kcchronicle.com There will not be any changes to the Kaneland Harter Middle School coursebook for the 2017-18 school year.

Michael Rice, director of grade six to 12 educational services for Kaneland School District 302, confirmed the decision during the Jan. 30 school board meeting.

“There were no changes, but there were some updates that came about from last year,” Rice said. “While there were no changes in the coursebook, there were some conversations, especially with our sixth-grade math and where kids are placed so they’re challenged as much as they can [be]. If there are opportunities to accelerate the kids, we want to do that as much as possible, but we need to make sure our teachers are also prepared.”

Despite the lack of change, there were several subjects addressed in addition to math, including reading, language arts and science.

Placement of incoming sixth-graders regarding standard math versus basic math is one of the topics that Kaneland Harter Middle School Prin-

BROOKE PEOPLES

Born: May 20, 1935; in New York City, NY Died: December 24, 2016; in Bartlett, IL Brooke Peoples passed away on December 24th at the Assisi Health Care Center of Clare Oaks in Bartlett.

She was born on May 20, 1935, in New York City to Frank and Joan Detweiler, and attended school in New Rochelle, NY and Plainfield, NJ. In 1953, she graduated from the Solebury School in New Hope, Pennsylvania.

She studied painting and design at Carnegie Mellon University and The Art Students League of New York.

She married John Peoples, Jr. in 1955. They lived in Baltimore and New York City before moving to Geneva, IL in 1973, when John joined the Fermilab scientific staff. He later served as the laboratory director from 1989 to 1999. In 1999 they moved to Wayne, IL, where she continued to pursue some of her favorite activities: painting, tending gardens and hiking with her family and dogs. In 2012, John and Brooke moved to Clare Oaks in Bartlett.

Brooke was an artist and a homemaker

“While there were no changes in the coursebook, there were some conversations, especially with our sixth-grade math and where kids are placed so they’re challenged as much as they can [be]. If there are opportunities to accelerate the kids, we want to do that as much as possible. ...”

Michael Rice Director of grade six to 12 educational services for Kaneland School District 302 cipal Brian Faulkner has been discussing with his team.

The school also has combined reading and language arts, and thus far such a change has been successful. Data might be limited in the short term so it will continue to be monitored to determine if such a change proves to be beneficial long-term.

“We’re still waiting to see how that’s going to work out because we haven’t gotten the bigger assessments on this,” Rice said “But from what we’ve been able to learn. ... this has been a good thing.”

The removal of the eighth-grade enriched science course also has been deemed a success. The belief was that the increased rigor of the revised curriculum, as well as the capability of the STEM – science, technology, engineering and math – scores resources that were adopted throughout

with a unique sense of style and color. She showed her paintings in galleries around the Fox Valley area. She was an active member of the Fermilab Auditorium Committee and the Art Gallery Committee for many years.

She is survived by her husband, John; and daughter, Vanessa (Craig Duplack).

She was preceded in death by her parents; her sisters, Susan Hager and Heidi Hanson; her brother, Bruce Detweiler; and her daughter, Jennet Peoples.

A memorial service will be held at Williams-Woodward Funeral Home, 820 Pine Street, West Chicago on February 4, 2017.

Visitation will be from noon until 2:00 p.m. with a service at 2:00 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, please consider making a contribution to The Anti-Cruelty Society, 157 W. Grand Ave., Chicago, Illinois 60654 (www. anticruelty.org) in memory of Brooke Peoples.

KATHLEEN C. WHILDIN Born: October 23, 1944 Died: January 27, 2017

the district, would provide a deeper challenge for students. Rice said data would continue to be collected to verify the impact of such a change.

He also noted that curricular revisions made by the Career Technical Education/Physical Education/Fine Arts/Specials group would be shared with school board for review, but no changes would be possible until the 2018-19 school year.

The school board unanimously approved the 2017-18 coursebook during its meeting.

In other news, an intergovernmental agreement was approved between the Kane County Sheriff’s Office and the school board for a resource officer to continue to be employed at Kaneland High School. The agreement is retroactive and set for two years – from Aug. 22, 2016, to June 30, 2018. Deputy Sarah Conley is expected to remain in this role.

2017.

Kathy was born Monday, October 23, 1944 in Manhattan, KS to parents, Robert and Svea (Johnson) Holbert and older brother, Fred.

The family moved to California where they resided for a few years until her Mom and Dad were divorced several years later. Svea, Fred, and Kathy moved to Elburn, IL to be close to Svea’s parents, Oscar and Ida Johnson, who settled there after emigrating from Sweden years before.

While playing her cornet in the Kaneland Dance Band, she met Everett who played the saxophone. Little did the young couple know they would spend the rest of their lives together. Over Christmas break of Kathy’s senior year, Everett asked for her hand in marriage.

Kathy spent her entire career in the telecommunications field. Before retiring in 2008 from Alcatel Lucent Technologies, she had three patents, numerous awards, and was recognized with both a Distinguished and a Consulting Member of Technical Staff designation. Kathy became a resounding voice for reasonable, responsible school finance when she served on the Kaneland School Board from 1985 to 1993.

Kathy had many favorite pastimes. She focused her brilliant mind on Suduko and exploring her family’s genealogy. Kathy was an avid card player and belonged to many card

AMENDMENT

THE WRITE PLACE Emma Chrusciel ters in addition to my parents, often making our house of six a chaotic hodgepodge of personalities and opinions.

Some of us are bolder and some quieter; we each have our own way of doing things, as well as our own beliefs and attitudes. If we never listened to each other, or if we weren’t careful to make sure we said things in a way that could be understood, I imagine that our relationships would turn disastrous very quickly!

More than anything, I believe that communicating effectively is the best way to form deeper relationships with others and broaden your own perspective. By having a conversation with someone or watching the way they behave, you gain an insight into their world and begin to understand their point of view. When you listen to others share their opinions or express their feelings, you change the way you see the world by viewing it through the eyes of others.

Giving a presentation in speech class may still be mildly terrifying, but I now know how essential – and beautiful – it is that I have a means of sharing my thoughts, feelings and dreams with the world.

Effective communication is a skill that will last me far beyond the end of this semester, and I can’t wait to see where it leads me in the future.

LETTERS Hillary’s basket of excuses

To the editor: Hillary Clinton started down the slippery slope to defeat when with great disdain she dismissed Donald Trump supporters as being “deplorables,” meaning a basket full of racist, homophobic, sexist, xenophobic and Islamphobic voters. It was taken as all encompassing scornful contempt for his supporters, in general, very similar to Barack Obama’s condescending labeling of those out of work in Pennsylvania and the Midwest as “cling[ing] to guns or religion.” Both of their statements reek of their arrogant elitism.

Now the defeated Hillary and her supporters are running around looking for reasons and excuses as to why she lost, when all they need do is look in the nearest mirror. However, that is a truth they cannot handle.

Hillary lectured us on fake news stories emanating from social media as one of her excuses, while supporters

charged voter fraud, but to no avail. Clinton’s campaign manager tried to cover up his own tactical misjudgments by blaming the Russians and their internet hacking, though there is no evidence that it affected the election outcome.

Hillary’s communications director said she lost because Trump gave a platform to white supremacists and nationalists, and another added that women voters were responsible due to internalized misogyny. Then, according to online reports, Bill Clinton played the race card (somebody had to), claiming she lost due to angry white men, which is somewhat reminiscent of Hillary repeatedly claiming there was a “vast right-wing conspiracy” against her husband while he was president.

The Clintons have always portrayed themselves as victims, claiming they were dead broke when leaving the White House, but since have amassed a fortune estimated in excess of

$111,000,000.

Hillary’s basket of excuses overflows with hollow accusations and rationalizations.

If they can quit whining long enough to look in a mirror, it will reflect back a lack of trust, a devastating FBI investigation of her dangerous misuse of her private server, the scandals surrounding the Clinton Foundation, four dead Americans in our Benghazi embassy while under her watch, email cover-ups, and no clear statement of her policies and objectives as president, just the usual feelgood platitudes. It is all best summed up as “Clinton fatigue” and “voter concern” that she would just be Obama’s third term of ineptitude, lack of conviction to lead the free world and conceding to terrorists like Isis and ruthless dictators like Bashar Assad of Syria.

The mirror of reality does not lie.

My revelation on communication Have you ever wondered what someone else is really thinking when you’re talking with them? Have you ever considered the impression they might be getting of you mid-conversation? These are just a few of the things I’m learning about in one of my new classes this semester: speech. I’m pretty introverted, so being the center of attention is not easy or comfortable for me. However, I’ve already learned a ton.

Our first unit focused entirely on the importance of communication and the most effective ways of doing it.

“Communication” is not just about what we say – it’s about how we say it, the situation we say it in, the person we say it to and many more factors I had never really considered.

The lessons and projects we did during this unit got me thinking about why communication is so essential to our lives and social interactions.

Let’s face it: We will likely never develop the ability to read minds or get inside the head of another person. Therefore, there must be another way for us to understand the thoughts and feelings of those around us. Communication, both verbal and nonverbal, is the key to learning what goes on inside the minds of others, as well as a means of expressing our own ideas and emotions to the people in our lives. Without the deeper understanding that comes with effective communication, relationships would fall apart and we wouldn’t be able to relate to each other.

I realize the previous paragraph probably sounded like a regurgitation of all the articles I’ve read in speech class, but let me offer a real-life situation to show how critical it is to communicate properly with those around us. I have three younger sis-

Seniors lead way for Kaneland’s basketball team

By CHRIS ROLLIN WALKER editorial@kcchronicle.com MAPLE PARK – Last year was one of the more unique and impressive seasons for Kaneland boys basketball.

The Knights were loaded with seniors and won a regional title with a new head coach.

Similar success hasn’t come this winter, but it hasn’t been for a lack of trying. The Knights (6-16) have pretty much been in every game until late in the fourth quarter.

A lot of that fight to the finish is because of the efforts of a much smaller group of seniors – Dan Franck, Mason Conroy and Jake Hed – who have consistently contributed.

“I wasn’t expecting us to be where we are right now, but we just got a big win over Morris (37-36 on Jan. 24),” Conroy said. “This year’s been tough at times. We have very little varsity experience and lacking it has caused us some problems, but we’re getting better.”

The Knights made it backto-back wins for the first time since the first week of the season with a 43-33 win against Yorkville on Jan. 27 (their third against the Foxes this season) before suffering a 60-46 loss against Ottawa on Jan. 28.

No player is in as unique a situation as Conroy. He saw some court time last year playing for his dad, Joe, but he doesn’t have the advantage of having around older brother, Ethan, who was among last year’s seniors.

“It’s definitely a different year, but we expected that,” Conroy said. “Years from now we’re not going to look back on our record. It’s about how hard we worked and that everyone gave their all.”

There’s no denying the Knights are underdogs. The seniors know that and their teammates know it as well, but they also share the positive attitude that they’re scrappy enough to beat a lot of teams.

“It’s been a struggle trying

Franck is one of three seniors leading Jan. 13 during a game at BC’s Martin Luther King Tournament. Conroy, who plays under his dad, Joe Conroy, on the Knights’ varsity, is a part the way for the Knights this season. of small senior class. to get the other guys to learn the faster pace, and we’ve guided them through that as much as we can,” Franck said. “Last year we had all those seniors, but we were also getting to know a new coach and learning new plays. It’s constantly been a learning process these last two years.”

Franck spent a lot of time last year trying to learn to play inside from Jake Gomes and Ryan David. The hard work behind the scenes has turned him into a much better player and a key contributor. He’s now trying to do the same with his younger teammates.

“Those guys taught all of us discipline and now we’re trying to teach the younger guys a lot of the same things,” Franck said. “Up until sophomore year, I was a guard, but I learned to play the post.

Varsity basketball is different.

You’re going to learn to do whatever the coaches ask you in order to help the team.”

One thing the trio hasn’t forgotten to do is have fun.

The record might not be what they had hoped for, but they’re striving to enjoy every prac-

tice and each game, fully recognizing the end of the season is quickly approaching.

“We’re such a small team compared to most that we’re going against, but we never back down,” Hed said. “It’s been fun. We’ve been pretty much in all of our games.

We’ve had some close ones that didn’t finish the way we wanted, but we’re working hard to finish the season. We know that in regionals anything can happen.”

Last year, a regional title was expected from the squad.

This year, expectations aren’t nearly as high. That lessens the pressure, but not the team’s attitude and hunger for success.

Kaneland lost by 19 points to Morris in the Plano Christmas tournament, but bounced back to beat Morris in a conference game – and did it on the road.

“We finally broke our losing streak, so that was a big win,” Hed said. “We think we’re getting better. It’s been difficult at times, but we’re making progress and we think we can finish strong.”

Kaneland’s Jake Hed looks over the floor Jan. 13 during a game at Burlington Central’s Martin Luther King Tournament. As one of three seniors, Hed is trying to pass on his experience to a group of younger Kaneland players.

Geneva church All about vocals supports soles Q&A

Generations for Good party helps by cutting patterns for shoes for Ugandan children

By BRENDA SCHORY bschory@shawmedia.com GENEVA – Generations for Good will be an evening to connect women of all ages to find inspiration and make an impact. The event will take place from 7 to 9:30 p.m. Feb. 3 at the First Baptist Church of Geneva West Campus, 3435 Keslinger Road, Geneva.

The cost is $5. Participants will hear a portrayal of Corrie ten Boom presented by Gayle Haas of Stories Come Alive, and participants should bring a pair of new or used jeans of any color that they will cut into a pattern for shoes to be made for Ugandan children.

“The Women’s Ministry Committee put this together,” said Sue Egan, an administrative assistant at the church.

“It’s an outreach event that is open to anyone, not just church mem- Gayle bers. We have space for Haas 380, and we have 165 registered.”

Register online by visiting www. fbcg.com or by calling the church at 630-232-7068.

Cutting jeans into patterns for shoes supports Sole Hope, a charity that seeks to combat diseases that enter through the feet, according to its website, solehope.org.

Called a Sole Hope Shoe Cutting Party, the event will support the charity’s efforts to protect Ugandan children from jiggers, an insect that burrows into a child’s bare feet, causing infections and damage to the soft tissue, according to the website.

Providing children with shoes to protect their feet from jiggers helps create a positive physical and psychological difference in their lives, the website stated.

“They give us templates, and we cut them into a pattern and ship it back to them and they make the shoes,” Egan said.

Those attending also will be treated to a portrayal of Corrie ten Boom, a watchmaker from a devoutly Christian

Eventually the family was arrested and sent to Nazi concentration camps. Ten Boom survived, and her book, “The Hiding Place” detailed the family’s efforts to hide Jews, as well as using the concentration camps to give witness to their Christian faith. The book also was made into a movie of the same name.

Haas said she found the story of ten Boom as told by Billy Graham at a crusade in the 1970s.

“She was my first real hero of the faith,” Haas said. “I grew up in Gary, Ind., and I had so many wonderful Jewish friends. Her work with the Dutch underground during World War II struck a chord in my heart.

I was blessed and intrigued by her story.”

While attending college for theater and drama, Haas said she found certain dynamics in the theater department were in conflict with her faith.

But in later years, she said she used her acting abilities in a children’s ministry at a church she and her husband pastored in Aurora.

“I was able again to use my passion for acting to share the gospel,” Haas said.

The church is no longer there, but her husband started a charity, A Future and A Hope Foundation, that helps ex-offenders return to society, and Haas founded her own company, Stories Come Alive, which allows her to continue acting for the faith.

“It has been a great joy to share [ten Boom’s] marvelous story,” Haas said.

“Her story of God’s love and forgiveness is so powerful, it changes us. I go to churches, to schools, any place that will have me.”

Mara Dale serves as voice teacher at Marquee Youth Stage

By VIOLET MARQUARDT editorial@kcchronicle.com

Since its inception, Marquee Youth Stage of St. Charles has had a goal to ignite creativity in youth through performance. Through singing and performing, kids are able to garner the confidence they need to lead inspiring lives.

Mara Dale, voice teacher at Marquee Youth Stage, knows the benefits of performing.

Since an early age, Dale aspired to be on the stage, and her pasMara Dale sion has followed her throughout her life.

Fast-forward to today; Dale is now a vocal instructor at Marquee Youth Stage, where she teaches everything from vocal lessons to sight-reading music to music theory.

Dale recently took the time to sit down with freelance writer Violet Marquardt to discuss her position as a voice instructor.

Violet Marquardt: How long have you been in the world of performance?

Mara Dale: When I was 5, I saw “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” in theater. I just thought, “I want to do that.” I did musicals and plays in school, I was in choir; I took AP music theory; I danced. … I tried to do all the art forms that I could. I ended up receiving my Bachelor of Fine Arts in acting from Syracuse University.

Marquardt: What inspired you to begin teaching?

Dale: When I came back after graduating [from Syracuse], I saw a position open at Marquee for music directing and

slowly I transitioned over to teaching.

Marquardt: How has teaching differed from performing? How do you like teaching thus far?

Dale: It’s a very fulfilling job working with kids and working in education. I love it. The kids are so lovely to work with. … They’re all great kids; they work hard; they practice; and they’re enthusiastic. They make it so much fun.

Marquardt: What are some of your goals as a teacher?

Dale: My goals are to help these young adults gain confidence in [themselves], gain confidence in their voice and learn to use their voice in a healthy way – not just in singing, but also in life. When you have that autonomy over your voice, you become a much more powerful person. I want to make them stronger people.

Marquardt: Can you further detail how singing and performing grants kids’ important life skills?

Dale: Kids gain skills in working together and collaborating in groups or a team. Kids gain confidence in themselves. … When kids are able to master a skill or get really good, they are able to take on leadership roles and teach other kids and have that relationship with their peers.

Marquardt: Besides teaching, how else are you involved in the world of performance?

Dale: I’m a professional actor in Chicago, I live here and work and audition here. Right now, I’m teaching with Barrel of Monkeys, which goes into Chicago Public Schools and teaches creative writing residencies.

We take the stories the kids write and adapt them for the stage, whether it’s song or dance or a series of vignettes.

We take the pieces back to the school and perform them for the kids, so they kind of feel like authors or rock stars.

Marquardt: And finally … do you think anyone has the ability to sing?

Dale: I do think anyone can sing. I have taught some tone-deaf people before, and they are less tone deaf after time. I think it’s possible. If you want to do it, do what makes you happy.

Opera singer and artistic director Solange Sior’s next Soirée Lyrique program will be “A Concert for Peace and Redemption” on Feb. 5.

Batavia pianist Chiayi Lee will accompany Soirée Lyrique’s “Concert for Peace and Redemption” on Feb. 5, including excerpts from operas and religious works.

Batavia pianist to help opera stars soar

By RENEE TOMELL rtomell@shawmedia.com As the operatic voices of Soirée Lyrique power straight to the heart, fans know to look for accomplished musician Chiayi Lee of Batavia presiding over the piano. She will return as accompanist for the Feb. 5 afternoon concert, “A Concert for Peace and Redemption,” in downtown Elgin. It will star four award-winning vocalists and a children’s choir.

Lee has collaborated with Solange Sior, founder and artistic director of Soirée Lyrique, all the way back to a performance of “La Traviata” by Sior’s former troupe, Elgin OPERA, when the two first met.

“What Solange is doing is really nice for the community – to keep introducing new concerts – in a small venue, all these fantastic singers coming to present some very special music,” said Lee, who holds a doctorate in musical arts in performance and pedagogy.

She relishes the opportunity to work with many different singers.

“As a pianist, I can also learn so much from how they sing and how they interpret each piece,” she said.

“I like to collaborate with musicians – we can argue about how the phrasing should go. That’s the fun part.”

She said as accompanist, she has to adjust to the variations of the singer.

“The pianist has to anticipate when

It’s my job … to make them look good.”

Lee’s life in music began when she was 5 years old and joined a children’s choir while growing up in Taiwan. By junior high, she had taken up double bass and played in the orchestra through college. But she also had begun playing piano, and discovered her true passion.

Today, she is pianist for the choir and other music department programs at Harper College, where she instructs a piano lab. She also teaches privately at her home and freelances as a pianist.

In addition, she is pianist for Fox Valley Presbyterian Church in Geneva.

The Feb. 5 concert will feature four vocalists, soprano Solange Sior, mezzo-soprano Jennifer Kosharsky, tenor Cornelius Johnson and baritone Aaron Wardell, plus the Elgin Master Chorale Children’s Chorus. The choir will open the second half of the concert.

Repertoire will include excerpts from operas such as “Carmen,” “Cavalleria Rusticana,” “Nabucco,” “Faust,” “Andrea Chenier,” “Hänsel und Gretel” and “The Pearl Fishers,” as well as religious works, with selections from the Verdi Requiem, Rossini’s Stabat Mater and Handel’s “Messiah.”

“You don’t get to hear those pieces very often,” Lee said of the program.

“We just had a rehearsal. Every piece is so beautiful.”

Sior said the concert will kick off the new season for Soirée Lyrique.

“This is my third concert with a spiritual theme,” Sior said.

It will include a variety of prayers, including one sung by the title character in “Carmen,” as well as the famous prayer duet from “Hänsel und Gretel.” “[It begins], ‘When at Night I Go to Sleep,’” Sior said. “We’re doing it in English and German. It’s very pretty.

And the guys are doing the famous duet from ‘The Pearl Fishers.’ They are singing about a priestess. They’re both in love with her.”

She said one aria she will perform is “La Mamma Morta” from the opera

“Andrea Chenier,” set in the French Revolution. It gained added fame playing in a Tom Hanks movie, when his character in “Philadelphia” describes it to Denzel Washington.

“It’s one that was on my bucket list,” Sior said of the aria. “[Maddalena sings that she] heard the voice of God tell her you have to keep on living. God is love. It’s a fabulous number.”

Sior said translations of all the songs will be provided.

The coming concert will be performed at the eighth-floor performance space of a downtown Elgin high-rise. Sior said the high-ceilinged room with a wood floor has great acoustics, important because the singers do not use microphones.

The next concert will be “Light Opera” on April 23, followed by an outdoor concert June 11 on a 3-acre property next to Snuffy’s Prairie in West Dundee.

“It looks like Ravinia,” Sior said.

“We pick up people with golf carts. We have plenty of parking. People bring their picnic, [and we] do a little lighter program.”

There also will be young artists concerts in July, which will be accompanied by pianist Rosemary Schroeder of St. Charles. Sior has regularly brought her fellow singers to venues in the Tri-Cities, and in Geneva is the regular soloist at First Church of Christ, Scientist.

FOOD

A LOOK AT SCHOOL LUNCH

What are students eating this year?

By LISA ABRAHAM More Content Now A friend recently shared with me the rules and regulations from her daughter’s school regarding food.

The letter, two pages long, explains the administration’s decision to stop offering peanut products because of students’ allergies.

It also addresses birthday and holiday treats – the focus of which, the letter emphasizes, should turn away from food as rewards, for health reasons and allergy safety.

Stickers, pencils and erasers are among the treats suggested for sharing; cupcakes, brownies and chips are now forbidden.

“Those kids are going to be eating the erasers,” one of my crusty co-workers commented as we discussed the policies.

The rules, I know, are similar to those adopted at many other schools throughout central Ohio.

Nowadays, schools deal with a host of students’ allergies and dietary issues that were virtually unheard of in my day.

The letter, though, made me wonder what school lunch is like in 2016 – and the staff and students at High Point Elementary School in Gahanna, Ohio, graciously allowed me to satisfy my curiosity.

Not sure what to expect, I was surprised to find “breakfast for lunch” being served on the day I visited.

The menu: Miniature maple-flavored pancakes, chicken sausage patties, seasoned sweet-potato hash browns, a choice of orange slices or fresh strawberries, salad and milk.

I dined across from third-grader Samara Schroeder, who offered me plenty of advice about negotiating the cafeteria. (As a shout-out to her parents, I am convinced that she will be advising presidents someday.)

If you don’t want milk, Samara pointed out, there’s water instead.

Check.

The pizza, when available, is good, she advised, “but the calzone is nasty.” Duly noted.

Samara, who had two sausage patties on her tray, explained that the lunch ladies are happy to give a second but prefer that students ask

The pancakes served that day seemed popular, as were the fresh strawberries. The kids, however, were pretty evenly divided over whether sweet potatoes are delicious or evil.

The plastic “spork” made eating difficult, and I noticed that most kids used their hands to pick up their sausage patties and pancakes.

Call me the manners police, but I’m not sure this change represents one for the better.

Linda Green, child-nutrition supervisor for Gahanna-Jefferson schools, said many changes are taking place in the lunch room – some because of allergies.

The district schools don’t serve

peanut butter, she said, but children are allowed to pack it in their lunches.

Lunch tables are clearly marked as “peanut-free zones.”

Green said the school offers a Wowbutter and jelly sandwich containing a toasted soy peanut butter substitute. (I sampled it and was not wowed. It has the same look and texture of peanut butter but lacks the flavor. Maybe kids don’t notice the difference.)

Most of the lunch changes, though, were made to comply with new federal nutrition guidelines aimed at getting kids to eat more healthfully, she said.

Whole grains are in everything from the pancakes to pizza crusts and pasta, Green said. At least three fruits or vegetables must be offered daily; and the schools have opted to offer

tossed salad fixings every day to help satisfy those requirements.

Encouraging children to eat salad is always a good idea.

Eight-year-old Samara, however, clued me in that the salad is consumed “mostly by visitors.”

Her best advice, I was pleased to discover, is unfazed by food allergies or nutrition guidelines: The faster students eat, the more time they have on the playground for recess.

It’s good to know that some things don’t change.

When YouTube takes over

Meet Generation Z, where every moment of childhood can be recorded, shared

By JESSICA CONTRERA The Washington Post

Thursday, February 2, 2017 • KCChronicle.com / The Herald

The boys in the YouTube videos always land their bottles perfectly upright. Max Cole has spent hours studying their routine, and now, his own viewers are waiting: Empty half the blue juice. Hold the Powerade bottle by its cap. Flip it into the air and – “Dude!” Max shouts. “It landed!”

Max, who is 6, waves his arms in the air. He knows just how to overreact to get his audience excited, what makes them click “thumbs up” and comment and subscribe. He jumps. He wiggles his hips. He does the dab, a dance move that looks like he’s sneezing into his elbow.

“Oh, my gosh!” he yells. “That is insane!”

But no one is watching.

Max’s family is used to hearing him pretend strangers on the internet can see him. In the six years he’s been growing up, YouTube has become the largest platform for children’s entertainment on Earth.

Today’s kids have little interest in the well-groomed child actors past generations saw on TV. They want to watch each other.

Videos of kids simply acting like kids attract millions of viewers, sometimes billions. Every moment of childhood – getting new toys, tagging along to the grocery store, making up games in their back yards – is material that can be recorded and uploaded.

So is it any wonder the children who watch these videos begin to act as if their entire lives are being recorded, too?

For the youngest members of the next generation, sometimes called Generation Z, the line between the online world and real life is fading.

Parents are having to explain to their toddlers the children whose whole lives they see on the screen aren’t actually their friends. They’re finding their kids methodically “unboxing” their toys, as if they’ve been paid to review them for an audience.

“Who are you talking to?” a parent will ask. “The viewers,” their children reply.

“For them it’s just normal,” Max’s mom, Shona Cole, said. “It wouldn’t even make sense to him not to film.”

Because cameras are all around Max and children of his age. The Coles have six kids, two dogs, three cats and

mother, were wary. Both had homeschooled their children in an effort to have more control over how they were brought up. Putting their daughters on the internet would expose them to commenters, and could provoke anxieties about how many page views they were getting and how they looked on camera.

But they were “say yes” parents, who filled their houses with books and art supplies and opportunities to try new things. They always encouraged their kids to follow their whims, especially the creative ones.

“When Matthew wanted to do competitive juggling, we took him to juggling,” Shona explains. “The girls want to do dance, I drive them to dance. What Annie wants is to do YouTube, and we had to support that.”

They could use YouTube as a chance for their kids to learn how to stick to a schedule. Their childhood memories would be captured forever.

Some parents go overboard

Tween twins are ready to take different paths

issues. I, at times, am shocked that parents permit so many teens under the age of 16 to become involved romantically at varying levels.

I am not a prude, nor was I unpopular in high school. As a matter of fact, I was very much the opposite. As a result, I have guided my daughter toward academic goals that I did not achieve because I didn’t have a mother who devoted her time to my educational enlightenment.

My daughter graduates high school with honors in June and will start college this fall. Ever since she was in preschool, my husband and I have encouraged her to seize every opportunity available to her.

I strongly urge all parents to never let their teenagers begin dating under the age of 16 and I would suggest 17 or 18 as a more ideal age. Your comments, please.

Dear Abby: I DEAR ABBY am a 14-year-old identical twin.

Jeanne My sister and I Phillips are sick of the whole “twin” thing and want to go to separate schools. We really want to be our own people. We have wanted this for a long time now. However, I’m not sure we can because, where I live, you have to go to the school in the town you live in. Do you have any suggestions on things we can do to make new, different friends, and how we can look different from each other? We are moving this year, so next fall we will be in a new school. – The Twin Thing in New Hampshire Dear Twin Thing: You and your sister are smart girls. What you want to do will be healthy for both of you, and I congratulate you for wanting to do it. It’s important that each of you develop as individuals, and the move will give the perfect opportunity to start. If you have been dressing alike, make a point of not doing it from now on. If you have been wearing your hair in the same style, change that too.

When you enroll in the new school, join separate clubs, go out for different sports, etc. If you do, people will no longer perceive you as molded from the same cookie cutter. Good luck.

Dear Abby: As a baby shower gift for my (soonto-be) grandson, I plan on opening up a UTMA (Uniform Transfers to Minors) account for his college education with a $5,000 initial deposit. My idea is to add $1,000 every year on his birthday for the first five years. Would it be tacky to challenge, or encourage, his other three grandparents to contribute to the account by matching their contributions every year up to my $1,000? Or would it be better to just tell them my plans and let them know they can also make deposits to the account?

I don’t know the financial situations of the others, and I don’t want to offend anyone. Your thoughts?

Dr. Wallace: I’m 16 and have been seeing a certain guy. We’ve been dating for the past year.

Whenever he calls to talk to me, my mother puts us on the speaker phone for her and anyone else in the house to hear. I think this is utterly ridiculous.

I’m a good kid and I hate being treated like a criminal. I do believe that people behind bars have more privacy than I do. I’m writing to you because my mother always reads your column and I’m positive you will agree with me. I’ve never ever given my parents any reason not to trust me. Furthermore, I happen to be vice president of the student body at school and a member of the National Honor Society.

Don’t let me down! I’m tired of being treated like a baby. – Cindy,

Hyannis, Mass.

Cindy: It’s important for parents

to be aware of what their children are doing, but there are times when parents go overboard in monitoring them. This appears to be one of those times. Parents must make a decision to trust their children and respect their right to privacy so long as that trust remains unbroken.

Under the restrictions you describe, I’m positive you and your boyfriend don’t talk to each other too often on the telephone.

Dr. Wallace: I’m under a lot of stress at home. My parents are constantly screaming at each other and it looks like they might separate. This has been going on for about six months, and it gets worse every day. About six months ago, my face started to break out, and now I’ve got a pimple and acne problem.

Is it possible that my complexion problem could be caused by stress? I know that eating junk

JUMBLE

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace food does not cause acne, but I’m not sure about stress. – Nameless,

Cumberland, Md. Nameless: Stress rarely causes

acne. It is possible, according to dermatologists, for an acne outbreak to be triggered by stress, but this would be a rare occurrence.

Most stressful situations do not cause acne. It’s important for you to get treatment from a licensed dermatologist for your complexion outbreak. With treatment, you may see improvement in a few weeks.

Dr. Wallace: Do you think I should sue my teacher? Yesterday a couple of friends and I were goofing off in class and I put a few tacks on the chairs of the three nerds we have in the class. Two of the three sat on the tacks and let out loud howls. Naturally, the teacher asked me if I was involved and, being honest, I told the truth that I was the culprit.

Instead of giving me a detention, she blurted out that I was a stupid jerk. That caused the entire class to laugh. I felt like a fool and was totally embarrassed. My dad said that my teacher abused my civil rights and could be sued for a lot of money. Is this true? – Name-

less, Columbus, Ohio.

Nameless: Anybody can sue a

person for “a lot of money.” Winning a verdict is another story, especially in your case where the teacher is telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

Dr. Wallace: I have noticed that a good portion of your readers are consulting you regarding dating

– Mother, Atlanta, Ga. Mother: I’m glad your daughter

has done well in school, but so do many young people who are allowed to date. You seem to be saying that teens must choose either academics or a social life, but, in truth, they must choose a balance of both. Parental guidance is needed to help them find a balance.

While age 16 is a reasonable age for a teen to start dating, making a teen wait until age 17 or 18 could hinder social growth.

It’s also important to remember that there is no “one size fits all” approach to parenting. Love and respect are essential to the job; ironclad rules are not. Teens who are mature, trustworthy and dependable are capable of spending time with the opposite sex.

Write to Dr. Wallace at rwallace@thegreatestgift.com.

– About To Be a Grandpa in Arizona Dear Grandpa: I’m voting for your second idea,

for the reason you gave. While the concept of an education fund for your grandbaby is laudable, making it a “challenge” might create financial stress for the other grandparents and be perceived as one-upmanship if they are unable to donate as much to the fund as you do.

Dear Abby: An older friend and I have exchanged emails since last spring. Hers have been mostly political and disparaging toward minorities. I asked her to please not send this stuff since we have opposite opinions on the subject, and I don’t plan to change my mind. I enjoy our in-person talks because they are nothing like the emails she sends, which are “forwards” somebody else has put together. I quit reading them, but is there a way to politely stop her from disseminating nasty propaganda? I have tried fact-checking and sending corrections to her and to those on the long list of people she has sent these emails. It doesn’t work. – Fact Checker Dear Fact Checker: Because someone sends you emails does not mean you must read them all.

Filter your email so that the political rants go into a special folder, then delete them en masse.

ASK THE DOCTORS / ELIZABETH KO AND EVE GLAZIER Research into the causes of AFM, which affects children in greater numbers than adults, is a national priority. At the CDC, scientists and public health specialists are gathering blood samples as well as fluid specimens from the nose, respiratory tract and spinal cord of affected patients for testing. Results are collected into a database for study and analysis.

The symptoms of AFM are similar to several other conditions that are far more common. This has increased the challenge of arriving at an accurate diagnosis.

However, awareness of the disease among health care providers is growing rapidly, which means that diagnosis and reporting are become more accurate.

If you believe you or your child has symptoms that correspond with those of AFM, call your family doctor. The findings from a careful examination of the nervous system, with accurate mapping of the muscles and reflexes affected, and diagnostic tests such as an MRI and analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid, will allow a correct diagnosis.

Several germs are suspected in AFM, so the CDC recommends that your family is up-to-date on polio and all other recommended vaccinations, and that you protect yourself and your family from mosquito-borne viruses by using insect repellents.

The good news is that increased awareness of AFM is leading to an ever-larger volume of reliable data for researchers to work with. That means more information about what causes the disease, and more avenues in which to seek and find a cure.

PUZZLE SOLUTION

Thursday, February 2, 2017 • KCChronicle.com / The Herald

Dear Doctor: I’ve been reading about a new illness that’s a lot like polio and is making children in parts of the country very sick. What is it, and should my family and I be worried?

Dear Reader: You’re referring to acute flaccid myelitis, also known as AFM, a rare neurological disease that affects the spinal cord. The symptoms mimic those of polio, which has helped to push AFM into the headlines.

Before we get into specifics, we want to stress that AFM is quite rare. Despite the sudden spate of alarming news reports that have, quite understandably, caused you concern, the rate of infection is extremely low – one person per million. As of last November, there were 120 confirmed cases of AFM in the United States in 2016.

So what exactly is AFM? It’s a syndrome that can cause the muscles and reflexes in the body to stop working normally. Symptoms often arise quickly. What begins as a fever or respiratory illness gives way to weakness in the limbs, including a possible loss of muscle tone.

In several reported cases, the first symptom in a child diagnosed with AFM was a sudden limp. Some patients have slurred speech or facial drooping. In the most serious cases, acute weakness in the muscles that control breathing has led to respiratory difficulties.

At this time, the causes of AFM are not fully understood. Officials at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suspect a range of viruses may be involved. These include West Nile virus, enteroviruses that enter the body through the intestines, and adenoviruses, which can cause coldlike symptoms, including sore throat, bronchitis, pneumonia, diarrhea and pink eye.

Step inside a home decorated for a 1-percenter

By JURA KONCIUS The Washington Post NEW YORK – A former parking garage reborn as a five-story, $49.5 million limestone townhouse opened its doors in May 2016 and invited you to wander through and imagine yourself as a 1-percenter. As part of the 44th annual Kips Bay Decorator Show House, 21 design firms had been gilding, glazing and glossing to transform the raw concrete spaces of the new-construction luxury home into a glittery, sparkly confection of wow.

Kips Bay, as the annual glitz-athon is known in the design trade, is the most prestigious decorator show house in the country. The designers selected to participate are among the best in the world.

And the creativity they weave into their spaces ends up in the pages of major shelter magazines and eventually trickles down to a home retailer near you. Design trends observed at my preview tour this week: armless sofas, unconventional fireplace surrounds, the color blue, and lots of silver and gold used together. LED fairy lights are found embedded in bookcases, sewn into curtains and draped on chandeliers.

This glamorous house just off Fifth Avenue has multiple indoor entertaining spaces to drink in, plus two posh outdoor terraces and a lavish roof deck with views of Barneys, the Pierre Hotel and a bit of Central Park. As you wander through the luxuriously appointed rooms, scented with $100 sandalwood candles and armloads of roses and peonies, you’ll catch a glimpse of what A-list homes are wearing all over the world. Lots of new high-end fabrics, wallcoverings, kitchen fittings, plumbing fixtures and furniture designs make their debut at Kips Bay. But it was only through June 9. After that, everything disappeared, just like Brigadoon.

This might be a good thing for Napoleon’s Lounge, since the walls and ceiling of this fifth-floor drawing room by Garrow Kedigian are covered entirely in chalk. Rajiv Surendra, a New York chalk artist,

spent 10 days drawing architectural details in the 20-by-20foot room, whose surfaces had been prepped with three coats of Rust-Oleum chalkboard paint. (A room this size would cost you about $20,000 for custom chalkboard walls and ceiling, if you wanted to have Kedigian and Surendra design it and draw it.)

“We wanted to create a formal French drawing room,” Kedigian said. “I was inspired

by Napoleon, as he would create beautiful transitory spaces for himself to lounge in wherever he was.” The chalk work of Surendra, a professional calligrapher who also draws elaborate restaurant menu boards, gracefully re-creates a room in the French Empire period, with wall panels, medallions and columns.

Fresh ideas pop out everywhere: Check out the walls, floors and ceilings in each space. Eve Robinson created a refuge for art lovers with a

The Petit Salon by Sawyer/Berson

Alex Papachristidis’ dining room at the 44th annual Kips Bay Decorator Show House in New York ceiling papered in one of the Mars Collection wallcoverings by the brand Trove, which are based on images of the Red Planet. In the library by David Kleinberg Design Associates, the rustic look of sandblasted pine washed with gold on the fireplace, bookcases and door surrounds was tempered with Clarence House cotton velvet walls, in a color the designers like to call “mouse-belly gray.”

In the Petit Salon by Sawyer/ Berson, a chunky marble terrazzo floor with marble fragments in golds and greens sets off a custom gold velvet armless sofa with a fringe trim. “We like the sleek look of a single-cushion sofa and think the armless design is very modern and chic,” said Brian Sawyer, a partner in the firm.

Inspiration can come from many sources. For Victoria Hagan, a light-filled photo of sky, water and sand that she posted on Instagram gave her the idea for the Grand American Salon. She displays

a blown-up image of the beach photo at one end of her large sitting room, with the word “Dream” superimposed on it.

“I wanted to do a contemporary living room that reflects light and dreams,” Hagan said. “I wanted this to be a happy room.” The room has a strong, modern look and lots of comfortable seating as well as several elements of surprise: a monumental red lacquered fireplace and simple white window treatments dressed up not with fringe, but with a string of LED lights sewn into the hem.

Deco-inspired kitchen, there are numerous trophy-kitchen amenities to inspect. But don’t miss the Lalique crystal panels, based on a design from 1930s carriages on the Orient Express, and a dramatic bar lit with blue LED lights and fitted with a striking Kallista “Bacifiori” sink, in polished and hammered stainless steel. Speaking of bars, David Collins Studio took a cue from the famous Blue Bar that the firm designed for the Berkeley hotel in London (a favorite hangout of Madonna’s) for their moody blue entryway and staircase, painted with Farrow & Ball’s Cook’s Blue.

On the second floor, designer Alex Papachristidis created a shimmering dining room

Know more For more information, visit kipsbaydecoratorshowhouse.org. full of glittery details. The 18th-century English crystal chandeliers have been updated with strings of porcelain beads. A custom pedestal on the dining table looks like a stack of silver-and-gold glazed rocks, a work in ceramic by Eve Kaplan. The napkins on the elegantly set table are custom-embroidered with silver thread to go with the room.

The powder room, by designer Gil Walsh, has a large photo of Jennifer Lopez by

celebrity photographer Tony Duran, which inspired sparkly details including a mica wallcovering by Baker and a Kohler Briolette vessel sink of faceted glass. Speaking of inspired, Lopez herself practiced her performing skills after school at the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club, which provides services for kids in the Bronx. This show is expected to raise around $1.4 million for the club’s programs.

The house is well worth a journey, whether by NetJets or BoltBus. “Life is transient, and Kips Bay is transient. It will only be here for one month,” Surendra says as he glances

over the result of his many hours of intense chalk drawing in Napoleon’s Lounge.

Surendra, by the way, is also an actor; you may remember him as rapper and mathlete Kevin G. from the 2004 cult classic Lindsay Lohan comedy “Mean Girls.”

“People are in awe of chalk art because of its impermanence,” said Surendra, between selfie requests. “But that is the beauty of it. It’s like fresh flowers – you enjoy it and its fragility. So if the wall gets smudged, deal with it.”

Or, as Kevin G. said in his iconic line in the movie: “Don’t let the haters stop you from doin’ your thang!”

High style: Build elegant ‘blanket ladder’ in less than an hour vertical rails, so the following two steps are all about gaining height.

By HOLLEY SIMMONS The Washington Post If your home is tight on space, you’ve probably gone to great lengths to make every room seem larger than it actually is. But have you ever considered going to great heights?

A tall ladder used to display things – sometimes called a blanket ladder – makes use of empty space above eye level and draws attention up from the cramped floor. It’s considerably less bulky than a bookshelf and can be moved on a whim.

“A ladder is great because it’s versatile, cross-functional and a statement piece,” said Emily Motayed, a Potomac, Md., native and co-founder of Havenly, an online design service that offers affordable home remodeling. “It’s a way to add a layer of depth in a very cost-effective way.”

Especially when you make it yourself. This project takes less than an hour (and that includes time to let paint dry!), and all the supplies can be bought for less than $50 during a single trip to your local hardware store.

And before you go out and buy a saw to cut the wooden dowels, which typically come in lengths of 48 inches: Big-box stores such as Home Depot and Lowe’s Home Improvement have cutting stations where you can borrow their tools at no cost.

Follow these steps to make a five-foot-tall storage ladder on your own and create your own styling options: Think magazines, blankets, jewelry.

Here’s what you’ll need: • Medium-grit sandpaper • Interior paint in your color of choice (optional) • Paintbrush (optional) • Wood glue • Four 3/4-inch copper tube caps • Six 3/4-inch copper tee fittings • 7/8-inch-thick wooden dowels cut to the following lengths: two at 24 inches, three at 16 inches and six at 12 inches

Photos by Amy King / The Washington Post

Step 1: Sand down the last inch or so of both ends of all your dowel pieces, enough so they will fit snugly into the copper fittings.

Step 2: If you’d like to add a pop of color, paint four inches on both ends of your 12-inch dowels in a color of your choice. I eyeballed this, but you could use painter’s tape and a ruler for more precise results. Allow it to dry. Mine was dry enough in 15 minutes.

Step 6: Repeat this process until you have three 12-inch dowels connected to three tees. Add one 24-inch dowel to the bottom tee hole, again using wood glue.

Step 7: Apply wood glue to the exposed ends of the top and bottom dowels, and slip on a copper cap.

Step 8:

Repeat Steps 3 through 7 so you have a second, identical vertical rail.

Step 9: Step 3: Apply a thin layer of Now, for

wood glue to one end of your 12-inch dowels.

Step 4: Slip on a tee fitting

using one of the holes along the top part of the “T.”

Step 5:

Apply glue to another 12-inch dowel, and slide it into the opposing end of the tee. We are building the

the rungs: Apply glue to the end of a 16-inch dowel. Slide it into the remaining hole of your tee on the left rail. Repeat this two more times, and then use wood glue to secure the three rungs in the other side of your rail.

ABOVE: If your home is tight on space, a tall ladder – sometimes called a blanket ladder – can be used to display things.

LEFT: A blanket ladder can be styled in many ways, and not just with blankets.

Greenery is a “zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring,” according to the Pantone Color Institute.

Pantone’s Color of the Year is a ‘bright and powerful’ green

By JURA KONCIUS The Washington Post For a world weary of so much red and blue, green may be just the right tone for the 2017 Pantone Color of the Year.

The 2017 anointed color, Greenery, a “zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring,” was announced December 2016. “Greenery bursts forth in 2017 to provide us with the hope we collectively yearn for amid a complex social and political landscape,” said the release from Pantone, which provides professional color standards for many industries.

No kidding.

The design community, paintbrushes and fabric swatches at the ready, was quick with its opinions on the annual color choice.

“I am not surprised to see a bright and powerful color this year,” said Marika Meyer, a Bethesda designer. “People are craving the positivity and energy and drive we can get from color. It’s a very optimistic color.” Meyer said she sees the bold and citric Greenery not as an overall color scheme in a room but as an accessory color that looks good with blues, purples or aubergines. “It’s an easy color to interject, even with a floral. I think it indicates a sense of hopefulness.”

So don’t run out and paint your living room Greenery just yet.

“It’s a bit acidic and would not be my choice for a wall color and would be unflattering with some skin tones,” said Barbara Hawthorn, an interior decorator based in McLean, Md. “Used judiciously, it would be a happy color for an accent or to bring the outside in.”

Does she think there are political undertones to the choice? “This color could reflect those who are part of the organic movement and the hopes for ending global warming. It’s unexpected.

No one knows what is going to happen.

And because of that, it probably reflects

the sense of our mood: unpredictable. This green is a great color when people need a lift.

And we do.”

Laurie Pressman, vice president at the Pantone Color Institute, said Greenery Photo provided by Neiman Marcus was chosen to represent a yearn- Bella vetro 8-light chandelier costs ing to reinvent ourselves. “The $2,275.

Color of the Year is chosen to reflect what is taking place in the world. This is a color we see building up in all areas of design and is reflective of a mood.” She said you see that shade of “yellow-based green” in technology, in apps and at Gucci, Pucci and Prada.

“Greens help our heartbeat to slow down, help us to breathe and pull ourselves away from a world tied to flat screens and immerse ourselves in the physical beauty of the natural world,” Pressman said.

The Pantone tradition dates to 1999, when Cerulean, a serene sky blue, was named the 2000 choice. Last year’s shocker: The naming of two colors, Rose Quartz (pale pink) and Serenity (hues of lilac and blue-gray), gave a nod to gender equality.

Hawthorn said Greenery reminds her of a color used often in impressionist and modern art and a shade frequently found in restaurants. She also said she thinks it’s the opposite of Shadow, the moody eggplant hue Benjamin Moore recently proclaimed as its 2017 Color of the Year.

“I think Shadow is a beautiful color to wear to a funeral,” Hawthorn said. “It would be great for a velvet evening gown or maybe a sofa. But for a wall color, you would need something lighter. Such different choices. Shadow is dark and mysterious, while Greenery is invigorating.”

Seneca, a Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman and dramatist, said, “If a man does not know to what port he is steering, no wind is favorable to him.”

First today, look at the North hand and the start to the auction.

What should North rebid over three diamonds?

Bridge players ought to know that when they have no major-suit fit and the values only for game (not a slam), they should steer toward three notrump. Only contemplate five of a minor if confident that three no-trump will fail.

In this deal, North should rebid either three hearts (which gives partner a chance to show three-card spade support or to bid three notrump with a club stopper) or three no-trump (which is the most likely game).

Note that if North is in three notrump, East will surely lead the club five, which gives declarer three tricks in the suit. He wins in hand, plays a diamond to the queen and ace, then returns a diamond toward his nine.

He cannot be defeated.

At the table, North raised three diamonds to four diamonds. South control-bid four hearts in case his partner was thinking about a slam, but North signed off in five diamonds.

West led the heart five: jack, queen, ace. If South had played the ace and another diamond, he could have survived. Instead, he played three rounds of clubs, ruffing the last on the board. Then he led the diamond nine to the queen and ace.

With perfect guesswork, declarer could have gotten home, but he understandably continued with a low diamond and lost three trump tricks to go down one.
