The Review April 26, 2016 OREGON

Taking an emotional stand against bullying Students won’t soon forget father’s powerful message – and that’s just what he hopes for

BY CHRISTOPHER HEIMERMAN

OREGON – Students sobbed, and the door to the gym at Oregon High School revolved, as teachers left and returned with more boxes of tissues, and even toilet paper when the tissues ran out.

Before the fifth-graders through freshmen absorbed the intense antibullying message from Kirk Smalley of the activist group Stand for the Silent, their administrators warned their parents. Letters were sent with a form that could be filled out to excuse their child.

Not one parent asked that their child be excused. “I was so proud of all our parents,� said Ann Tilton, principal of Oregon Elementary School. “I knew it was going to have to be powerful,� “He’s a dad who lost his child.�

Smalley tearfully shared the story of how, after 2 years of being bullied, his 11-year-old son, Ty, shot himself. The phone call from his hysterical wife.

The promise he made 1 month and 7 days later to never bully again.

He shared statistics, such as students being

bullied every 7 seconds nationwide, and that 1 of 4 high school graduates have made plans to commit suicide. He held up his cellphone and explained how easy it is for students to terrorize each other.

About midway through the 90-minute assembly, he asked how many in the crowd had been bullied. All but a few hands went up. “I love you guys,� he said, signing that phrase with his thumb, index finger and pinkie. “You are somebody.�

Then he asked how many kids in the audience were bullies.

Three hands went up in the corner of the gym.

Smalley strode toward them and signed again. “I love you guys,� he said. “That’s how we learn, is through powerful presentations,� Tilton said.

Some of the administrators and faculty were taken aback. “I think I even underestimated the emotions we’d experience today,� said Kip Crandall, principal of David L. Rahn Junior High School.

Counselors and social workers were alerted, too, of the fallout that was to be expected.

Christopher Heimerman

Hundreds of fifth-graders through freshmen in the Oregon School District sign “I love you� to speaker Kirk Smalley of Stand for the Silent on Thursday during his anti-bullying presentation in the Oregon High School gym. “We wanted them to know that if there was anyone who seemed like they needed to talk, they should be available,� Tilton said.

When students returned to the junior high, they went straight to homeroom for 35 minutes of debriefing. “That’s that family-type atmosphere, where they can talk about what they felt today,� Crandall said. “The most important thing is that this can’t be a 1-day-wonder assembly. We’ve got socio-emotional goals in our school improvement plan. We’re

going to bring this to the forefront periodically.�

Crandall said students were encouraged to seek out the counselor if they needed assistance beyond the debriefing.

The assembly was followed by Merge Day, the Open Program community project of 15-yearold sophomore Gylian Finch. It grouped eighthgraders and freshmen

together for leadership activities – “icebreakers� she called them – through the afternoon, and also gave the incoming freshmen a taste of the A-B-C lunch format.

The smiles were an interesting juxtaposition to the tears from the assembly. “When I think about it now, it’s perfect, because it strikes that balance

between sadness and happiness, all in one day,� Finch said.

Open Program and Spanish teacher Kim Radostitis, who also created the school’s freshman transition program Hawks Take Flight, had a vision to do a Merge Daylike event over the summertime.

ROCK FALLS

Hostage standoff ends without injury Authorities shut down portion of U.S. Route 30 STAFF REPORT

ROCK FALLS – A man holding a woman hostage in a Rock Falls motel was arrested Thursday afternoon after a standoff with police, rifles drawn.

The 39-year-old, whose

name is not being released, called 911 around 3 p.m. to report he was holding a woman hostage in a room at the Napp Inn, 510 W. U.S. Route 30.

When officers arrived, he “had broken out a window and was brandishing several knives and threatening officers,” Rock Falls police said in a news release.

Police evacuated motel rooms, closed nearby businesses and shut

Anti-bullying events won’t just be one and done BULLYING CONTINUED FROM 1

“[Gylian] said, ‘No, I think we can make this bigger, and do it during the school year,’” Radostits said, “which I was super-excited about.

As a freshman teacher, I’m so excited I get to meet my students for next year, play games and build relationships, so there’s a familiar face when they come in next year.”

“If we did it in the summer, some people will be gone, or on vacation,” Finch said. “If we do it at the start of the school year, they’re already here.

I think this is going to be great for them. They’re

going to figure out that we’re not as scary as they thought we were. They’ll be more comfortable in school with peers they’ve met before.”

Before the activities, such as human scavenger hunts, caterpillar races and games of football, Finch was treated to a spoonful of tough love from Smalley midway through his presentation.

Even though she plays premier club volleyball and makes great grades, her circle of friends knows no bounds, she said.

“I hang out with some athletes, but also Open Program friends, and lots of random people – I don’t exclude,” she said.

“If I see someone in the

hallway, I smile. I say, ‘Hi.’” Smalley knelt on the gym floor in front of her.

“Gylian, wouldn’t it be nice if 15, 20 years from now, you could look at your kids and say, ‘There was a group of kids who said they were going to take on the whole world and stop bullying?’” he said.

Her eyes fixed on his.

“It was really sad to think about it, and to think that something like what he went through could happen to a family member, or a close friend,” Finch said. “That was powerful. Knowing that he got my attention, all of our attention, is great.”

He was taken away by ambulance.

As of 6 p.m., the man had not yet been booked into Whiteside County Jail. No one was available to answer any further questions, the police dispatcher said.

FOUR TYPES OF

Cause of inmate’s death still uncertain

BY ANGEL SIERRA

MORRISON – Officials still are uncertain about what killed a 28-year-old Whiteside County Jail inmate, who was found unresponsive in his cell and later died at a hospital less than a day after being arrested.

“The autopsy results are inconclusive at this point, and no cause of death was visibly or physically noted,” Coroner Joe McDonald said in an email Wednesday. “We are submitting toxicology sam-

ples at this time.”

Neither suicide nor foul play is suspected in the death of Walter E. “Boogie” Divers Jr., of Sterling, who was pronounced dead Saturday at Morrison Community Hospital, Lt. John Booker has said in a news release.

The autopsy was done Tuesday afternoon.

Toxicology results are processed at AIT Laboratories in Indianapolis, Indiana, and can take up to 6 to 8 weeks, McDonald has said.

Divers was found unre-

sponsive and immediately removed from his cell shortly after 11 a.m, and life-saving measures were performed, Booker said in the release. State Police are investigating, which is standard practice when there is a death at the jail.

Divers was arrested about noon Friday in the 700 block of Locust Street in Sterling for failure to appear in court in a 2013 case in which he was convicted for driving with a revoked licensed and resisting a peace officer.

STERLING | LAWRENCE LOFTS PROJECT

Activity at site should heat up in Construction, Fung Ming demo on track

The project Go to economicgrowthcorporation. com/lawrence-lofts for a profile of the Lawrence Lofts project as drawn up by the Rock Island Economic Growth Corp.

BY PAM EGGEMEIER peggemeier@saukvalley.com 815-625-3600, ext. 5570 @pam_eggemeier

STERLING – The Lawrence Lofts project is on track for a May groundbreaking ceremony, as are plans for the demolition that will create space for its parking lot.

Rock Island Economic Growth Corp. secured financing for the estimated $5.5 million apartment complex above the Whiteside County Courthouse at 101 E. Third St. Plans call for 20 affordable housing units in the long-vacant tower area of the building. The courthouse will remain on the main floor.

The Rock Island nonprofit said the paperwork is being finalized, and the project is on schedule.

“We’re planning for a groundbreaking in May, tentatively sometime in the second or third week,” said Beth Payne, administration director at Rock Island Growth.

Construction is expect-

The Lawrence Lofts project is on track for a May groundbreaking ceremony, as are plans for the demolition that will create space for its parking lot adjacent to the building. ed to be about a 12-month process, wrapping up in spring or summer 2017.

Rock Island Growth said there haven’t been any surprises up to this point.

“Everything is going well, and it’s just a matter of doing our due diligence,” said Amy Clark,

the nonprofit’s grant administration director. “We should have the building permit in the next couple of weeks.”

Sterling Today, the city’s nonprofit economic development arm, is taking the lead in clearing space for a parking area

for Lawrence Lofts.

Plans have been finalized to demolish the building at 216 First Ave., the former site of the Fung Ming restaurant.

The waiting period with the Environmental Protection Agency should be up soon, and the demoli-

tion process will be set in motion.

“We should be able to start asbestos abatement the end of next week – probably April 28,” said Janna Groharing, executive director of Sterling Today. “Then it should be a week or 10 days for the

actual demolition, and the area will be prepped

by June 1.”

A faux facade is planned so the parking lot won’t be visible from First Avenue.

Rock Island Growth is adept at putting together several layers of financing for downtown redevelopment projects. The project came together last fall when the city learned it would receive tax credits from the Illinois Housing Development Authority.

A new 23-year tax increment financing district is another key financing element. The Lawrence Lofts will be brought into the new TIF that covers a 4-block area to also accommodate other development projects.

The Lawrence Building is in the Central Business District TIF, which expires next year.

SAUK VALLEY COMMUNITY COLLEGE

A institute of higher burning

BY CHRISTOPHER HEIMERMAN

DIXON – Little did David Hellmich know what awaited him when he got behind the Friends of the Prairie Group during his first year as president at Sauk Valley Community College. The education. The financial savings.

The opportunity to rake fire.

The group partners with Natural Area Guardians, and he got to help out March 18, when the members administered a controlled burn to the plot north of the school building. Wednesday, they were at it again, sandwiching a burn of the prairie east of the building between rainstorms.

Rachel Brunner, an English teacher who oversees the college group, offered that this time around, Hellmich could use the drip torch, if he’d like.

“It’s just like flicking fire,” she said.

“I can rake fire, but I don’t

know about flicking it,” Hellmich said.

Controlled burns help manage weeds and invasive species, and help restore nutrients for future native plant growth. Burns are typically reserved for October through mid-April, creating a sense of urgency to get in Wednesday’s burn.

Groups such as Nature Conservancy say at least 231,000 of the state’s million-plus acres of natural areas should be burned annually, but that only about 6 percent of that land is being maintained with controlled burns.

“That shows you the scope of how much more we should be doing,” said Tim Keller, who’s worked with Natural Area Guardians since the group’s inception about 40 years ago. To put his importance as a conservationist into scope, the newest building at Nachusa Grasslands near Franklin Grove is the Tim Keller Education Center.

The groups are extending the north plot by 4.5 acres, and hope to go even farther by the end of the year. The school’s neighbor, Joe Reaver of Holly Hock Hills, volunteered to till the ground.

Hellmich said between savings on fuel, hourly wages, and maintenance of equipment used to mow lawn, the partnership will save the school more than $2,000 annually.

Brunner said the benefits of the partnership are priceless.

“A lot of people don’t understand prairie, and I know a lot of people are very partial to lawns,” she said.

“But we think that the prairie as a native plant population, which Illinois used to primarily consist of, is a great way to have biodiversity on campus.”

Most prairies boast 50 to 100 different plants, but the most diverse ones can feature as many as 150.

“You want that biodiversity, because that’s what

was naturally occurring,” Brunner said.

The group will next re-seed the burned plots – which were set up by Natural Area Guardians – and perform weed maintenance. The seed was either gathered by the college group off its own plots or other places, or donated by the Guardians, Nachusa, and Byron Forest Preserve.

Brunner, who served as an adjunct professor at the college the past 2 years, is in her first year as a fullfledged professor, but about a dozen years ago, she worked seasonally on the prairies with the Byron preserve.

She and Keller introduced Hellmich to the Nachusa Grasslands near Franklin Grove. From the time he sat in on Hellmich’s interview, Keller was envisioning a partnership that would lead to opportunities.

“It was very exciting to get to know him,” he said.

“We’ve had very little coop-

The partnership was formed in early fall, and Brunner and Mark Jacobs head the committee of eight, which includes two science professors, Lori Anton and Dave Breen. Breen taught a botany course, and Anton hopes to add a field botany course.

For most events – such as the group’s Earth Days events leading up to Earth Day on Friday – the group works with Phi Theta Kappa and Science Club, but Brunner wants to get the students more hands-on – both literally and figuratively. On Friday, volunteers are invited to meet in the west mall at 1:30 p.m. and head out to help re-seed the prairie.

“One of the things we need to figure out this summer is how to get students involved with our committee,” she said, adding that students have expressed interest. “We’d like to have the Science Club out there,

Kick it off with quinoa Liven your breakfast with the ‘mother of all grains’

BY GRETCHEN MCKAY Tribune News Service

Q

uinoa might not immediately come to mind when you’re thinking of breakfast.

Known as the “mother of all grains,” the high-octane protein source – revered by the ancient Incas and a super food that’s been nourishing people in South America for hundreds of years – is most often served as an alternative grain source in salads, mixed into burgers or soups and chili, used as a substitute for pasta or added to cookies and muffins.

But yes, quinoa does make sense for breakfast, and not just because breakfast is the most important meal of the day but also since the seed – a tasty member of the goosefoot family that includes beets, spinach and chard – is so very nutritious.

Mixed with a little egg, cooked quinoa makes for a terrific crust for quiches and tarts. Folded with an array of vegetables and crumbled cheese into beaten eggs, it bakes up into one heck of a savory, grab-and-go breakfast muffin. It’s also good on its own, perhaps topped with a fried egg and liberal dash of hot sauce.

Another plus is quinoa is gluten-free. So it’s a great choice for people with celiac disease or those who are sensitive to gluten, wheat and other grass-based food products. For the first time in a long time, my son was able to enjoy a piece of quiche without fretting about the possible side affects.

Quinoa also is rich in calcium, iron, fiber and potassium, and is an excellent source of folate, magnesium, vitamin B-6, thiamin, niacin, potassium and riboflavin. And all for

around 200 calories a cup.

Quinoa comes in a variety of colors – choose from red, black or white – and ranges in price from sorta expensive to really expensive. (I got a 2-pound bag of organic quinoa for less than $9 at Sam’s Club.) You also can buy ready-to-eat toasted quinoa from Carrington Farms ($6.99 for a 10-ounce bag at WalMart) for sprinkling on top of dishes for a high-fiber crunch or for eating out of hand.

To cook the quinoa, add one part of the grain to two parts liquid in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for about 15 minutes until quinoa is tender; you’ll know it’s done when the grains are translucent. You also can prepare it in a rice cooker.

Don’t forget to drain it when it’s done (quinoa holds water) and be sure to rinse the seeds in a fine-mesh strainer before cooking, or it might end up tasting bitter.

Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

Crack eggs into skillet; season with salt and pepper and cook until whites are set around the edges, about 1 minute. Flip eggs and cook to desired doneness, about 30 seconds for a runny yolk.

Divide quinoa among four bowls; top each bowl with 1 fried egg, avocado and a dash of hot sauce.

Roasted Asparagus Quiche

Serves: 4 This savory breakfast bowl is super simple, and tastes so fresh.

4 scallions, thinly sliced 2 cups cooked quinoa 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar Kosher salt, to taste, divided Freshly ground pepper, to taste, divided 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided 4 large eggs 1 avocado, chopped Hot sauce (for serving) Mix scallions, quinoa and vinegar in a small bowl; season with salt and pep-

Serves: 8 I was skeptical that quinoa would bake into a crisp crust, but it did, quite prettily. My mother, who’s never even heard of the seed, gobbled it up lickety split before dinner, I might add!

This recipe calls for roasted asparagus but I imagine any vegetable would work well in the eggy custard, which manages to be fluffy and creamy at the same time.

10 to 12 stalks asparagus Olive oil for drizzling Kosher salt, plus more for filling Ground white pepper, plus more for filling For crust

2 cups cooked quinoa, chilled 1 ⁄8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1 large egg, beaten Cooking spray For filling 2 eggs 2 egg yolks 1 cup heavy cream 1 cup whole milk ½ teaspoon kosher salt ½ teaspoon ground white pepper 1 ⁄8 teaspoon ground nutmeg 2/ cup grated Gruyere 3 cheese or any Swiss cheese Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Trim ends off asparagus stalks if they are woody.

Place on baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Using your hands, gently toss them around a bit to make sure the stalks are evenly coated, then spread into a single layer on baking sheet.

Roast for 15 to 20 minutes.

Cool, then chop into 1-inch pieces. Set aside.

Make crust: Combine quinoa, pepper and egg in a bowl, stirring well. Press mixture into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate coated with cooking spray.

Bake for 20 minutes; cool.

While crust is baking, prepare filling: In medium bowl, whisk together eggs and yolks. Gradually add

heavy cream and milk, and whisk to incorporate. Whisk in salt, pepper and nutmeg.

Once crust has finished baking, remove from oven.

Increase oven temperature to 375 degrees.

Sprinkle cheese in the bottom of baked crust. Top with asparagus and fill crust with egg mixture. Bake for 40 minutes. Let cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving.

Mediterranean Feta and Quinoa Egg Muffins Makes: 12 muffins Sun-dried tomatoes and tangy feta give these breakfast muffins a punch of flavor. Don’t make my lazy, rookie mistake of using paper liners in the muffin pan – they stick, and you’ll lose some (and maybe even a lot) of your breakfast when you peel the paper away.

2 teaspoons vegetable oil, plus optional extra for greasing muffin tins ½ cup finely chopped onion ½ cup chopped sundried tomatoes in oil 2 cups baby spinach, finely chopped ½ cup chopped kalamata olives

1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano 8 eggs 1 cup cooked quinoa 1 cup crumbled feta cheese ¼ teaspoon salt Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and prepare twelve silicone muffin holders on a baking sheet, or grease a 12-cup muffin tin with oil and set aside.

Heat a skillet to medium. Add vegetable oil and onions, and saute for 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and saute for another minute. Then add spinach and saute until wilted, about 1 minute. Turn off heat and stir in olives and oregano, and set aside.

Place eggs in a blender or mixing bowl and blend/mix until well combined. Pour eggs in to a mixing bowl (if using a blender) then add quinoa, feta cheese, veggie mixture and salt. Stir until well combined.

Pour mixture into silicone cups or greased muffin tins, dividing equally, and bake in oven for 30 minutes, or until eggs have set and muffins are a light golden brown. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Muffins also may be chilled and eaten cold, or re-heated in a microwave the next day.

CHILD CARE

NO INDIVIDUAL, unless licensed or holding a permit as a childcare facility, may cause to be published any advertisement soliciting a child care service.* A childcare facility that is licensed or operating under a permit issued by the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services may publish advertisements of the services for which it is specifically licensed or issued a permit. Sauk Valley Media strongly urges any parent or guardian to verify the validity of the license of any facility before placing a child in it's care. *Family homes that care for no more than three (3) children under the age of twelve or which receive only children from a single household, for less than 24 hours per day, are exempt from licensure as day care homes.

The three children to whom this exemption applies includes the family's natural or adopted children and any other persons under the age of 12 whether related or unrelated to the operator of the day care home. (DCFS Rule, Part 377.3 (c))
