Northeast Metro Expo brings community together

Alumna walks to beat MS BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

MINNEAPOLIS — Brittany Machus, a 2005 Mahtomedi High School grad, completed her seventh Walk MS: Twin Cities May 1. Machus was diagnosed with MS in 2009 at the age of 22. Her parents, sister and often some extended family have walked the Walk MS with her. They carry her over the finish line. Machus walks either the 1 ½ mile walk or the 6 ½ mile walk, depending on how she is feeling. This year she and her family did the 1 ½ walk together. “I can get pretty tried and sore after it,” she said. “I have to make sure I take it easy.” Machus and her clan take breaks to help her get the most out of the walk. Exercise is actually also important for those who have MS. “It definitely can take a lot out of me,” said Machus. “But it feels good to finish it.” MS is a disease which affects the central nervous system. While the cause is unknown, something causes the immune system to attack the spinal cord and nervous system. Myelin, a protective coating on nerve fibers, becomes damaged and signals to and from the brain are disrupted. This can cause numbness, tingling, fatigue and paralysis. Symptoms can vary widely from patient to patient. Machus enjoys the camaraderie of the walk and seeing so many people come together to try to put a stop to MS. “It’s great because I can see the support not only of my loved ones, but all of the other families and

Military's top chef got start in hometown restaurant BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

U.S. Navy chef Jeremy Andersen traces his culinary journey back to time spent in his grandmother’s kitchen and his first job at the long-gone Fiddleheads Bistro in downtown White Bear Lake. Today the 2002 White Bear grad is a culinary specialist 2 who cooks for an admiral at the Naval War College in Newport, Rhode Island. “It’s not that stressful,” said Andersen, whose parents, Kim and Mary, still live near Podvin Park. “At least it’s a lot less stressful than cooking at sea on a ship.” The petty officer second class, who enlisted in ’07, has served on a submarine and spent five years on a destroyer preparing three meals a day for a crew of 250. “Spending seven months straight on a ship

can be challenging,” Andersen said. “We are limited by ingredients, what you are required to cook and the equipment you have. It’s difficult to be creative.” His proficiency in a ship’s galley helped hone Andersen’s skills enough to beat the military’s best cooks for top honors last month when he was named Armed Forces Master Chef of the Year. The sailor competed against 240 culinary experts from throughout the Department of Defense at the competition, held at Fort Lee, Virginia. It was sanctioned by the American Culinary Federation and designed to introduce military cooks to new, modern methods to prepare food for service men and women. Andersen’s career started at the upscale Fiddleheads, which was located in the Premier SEE MILITARY TOP CHEF, PAGE 8A

CLARIFICATION There was some confusion about the setback regarding the chicken ordinance reported April 20. The setback requirement is 50 feet from the neighboring residence, not 50 feet from the property line. Here’s the language in the ordinance:

…shall be located in the rear yard only and shall be at least 50 feet from adjacent habitable structures and 5 feet from all property lines. If a 50-foot setback from adjacent habitable structures cannot be achieved, the property owner may seek the written consent of

the affected property owner(s) for a lesser amount. Inability to obtain the written consent of the affected property owner may be appealed by applying for a formal variance pursuant to Section 1301.060 of the Zoning Code.

POLITICAL BRIEFS Democratic candidate endorsed for District 42 Jamie Becker-Finn of Roseville was endorsed by acclamation by the DFL on April 9 for the House 42B seat which is being vacated by Rep. Jason Isaacson. Becker-Finn is the mother of two and married to Gabe Becker-Finn. They have lived in Roseville for the past 11 years. Becker-Finn sits on the Roseville Parks and Recreation Commission. She is a member of Lutheran Church of the Resurrection and volunteers with the congregation’s hunger relief project. Becker-Finn is employed as an Assistant Hennepin County Attorney at the Domestic Abuse Service Center. She was previously employed as a judicial clerk at Hennepin County District Court and as a legislative assistant with the Minnesota House of Representatives. Becker-Finn also served with AmeriCorps, and is a graduate of the University of Minnesota. If elected, Becker-Finn would focus on the issues of educational and income disparities, preserving and protecting water and other natural resources, and improving the mental health system.

Alleged unconstitutional voting policies discussed The Candy Sina for Senate campaign, District 42, will host an informational meeting on the Minnesota Voter's Alliance lawsuit against the Minnesota Secretary of State regarding alleged unconstitutional voter practices 10 to 11:30 a.m. May 7. Andy Cilek, executive director of the Minnesota Voter's Alliance, will discuss its recent fi ling of its petition to the Minnesota Supreme Court regarding alleged issues with same-day voter registration election policies. The meeting will be held at the Roseville Ramsey County Library, 2180 Hamline Avenue.

Sig Olson’s fight is not yet over

I

t’s been 60 years since Sigurd F. Olson published “The Singing Wilderness,” his fi rst book of wilderness essays about the area in northern Minnesota now known as the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW). Several years ago, I fell in love with the same wilderness on a weeklong trip through the undisturbed north country. For the fi rst time, I knew what it was like to experience complete and utter wilderness. I will never forget the ceaseless rhythm of paddles on a motionless lake, the wailing cry of loons every night, moose tracks in the mud, the constant and somewhat exciting threat of hungry bears pawing their way Getting into our food pack. Although I have enjoyed camping for most of in Tune my life, it had always been within Jackie Bussjaeger the limits of a state park, complete with flush toilets, electric outlets and vehicle access. In the Boundary Waters, you have only what you can carry. There was a time in history when this was the only existence for humans; in this day and age it is a privilege for humans to experience it. Anyone who has been there knows the richness of the quietude, the sublime glory in being surrounded completely by the natural world. This is what it feels like to be in touch with the earth. Olson understood this better than most people. I attended a recent presentation by Olson’s biographer David Backes, who shared some of the lesser-known details of the environmentalist’s life. Like many writers, Olson struggled to come into his own, but he always knew one thing to be true: the northern country was sacred. Even as he struggled with his personal and professional life, he worked toward protecting the tranquil waters from the interference of paved roads, construction and the noise of developed civilization. He wanted the lakes and rivers to remain a wilderness where humans could get in touch with their inner selves. While no one wants to destroy a pristine wilderness, the Boundary Waters is now in jeopardy again due to the proposed development of a copper-nickel mine near its borders. The controversy is building between Iron Range workers who need jobs in the region, and longtime environmental advocates who refuse to see the landscape altered by human interference. Explorers Dave and Amy Freeman have even gone so far as to spend a full year in the wilderness to bring awareness to the threat of mining. Olson was a lot like the environmentalists who fight for the Boundary Waters today. He helped draft the Wilderness Act, which was passed in 1964 and now protects the Boundary Waters. The terms of that agreement are being called into question by the proposed development of the PolyMet and Twin Metals mines. It’s a tough issue to resolve—many of the Iron Range residents are out of work and will rely on the construction of new mines to stay employed. Minnesota has long been supportive of its Iron Range workers, and the opposition to mine development has all but swept the rug out from under them. It doesn’t help that Governor Mark Dayton has effectively alienated many of them in his support of Boundary Waters preservation. The solution to the problem is not easy. Governor Dayton believes that the issue will affect Minnesotans for the next several years. But perhaps those involved with the process can gain some insight from looking back 50 years, to when Sig Olson and others rallied around the value of one of Minnesota’s rarest crown jewels.

Recycling and Energy Center

T

his past Friday was Earth Day. Ramsey County marked the occasion by hosting an event to show our communities the strides we’re taking to get the most value out of our trash as we move towards a goal of 75 percent recycling by 2030. Ramsey County, along with leaders from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, the city of Newport and Xcel Energy, convened in Movers and all Newport on Friday to introduce Shakers the newly-named Blake Huffman Recycling and Energy Center now under management of the Ramsey/Washington Recycling & Energy Board. An area of focus for the Ramsey County Board has been recovering energy and recyclables from trash instead of dumping it all in landfi lls. From 1987 through 2015, we had contracted with the private operator of a waste processing facility in Newport. That facility receives garbage picked up by private haulers and sorts out hazardous materials and recyclables. Then, remaining material is processed as a fuel source that is used by Xcel Energy plants in southern Minnesota to generate enough electricity to power 20,000 homes. Since 1987, the facility has

This Earth Day was an appropriate time to recognize all of the hard work and partnership that has gone into vastly improving the way we deal with our waste in the east metro. processed more than 10 million tons of trash from Ramsey and Washington County. After two years of study, we determined that it was in the best long-term interests of residents and businesses of both counties to purchase the facility and operate it as a public entity. This decision will retain the decades-old commitment to environmental protection and recycling goals; protect jobs and industry in the east metro; save money for haulers and residents; and provide opportunities to implement new recovery strategies. Importantly, it gives the counties the opportunity to make technology improvements that assure that more resources are recovered and used locally. Between 2010 and 2014, about 480,000 tons of trash from Ramsey and Washington counties was

dumped in landfi lls – even though materials in it could have been recycled or used at the Recycling & Energy Center to create fuel. That buried waste accounts for an estimated $32 million worth of recyclable materials. Now that the counties are operating the center, it will be possible to have all east metro haulers deliver trash there instead of entombing these resources in landfi lls. It will also be possible to pursue new technologies, such as mixed-waste processing which allows further sorting of materials, including food waste. This waste can then be composted and processed into biofuels – providing another step towards the 75 percent recycling goal by 2030. This Earth Day was an appropriate time to recognize all of the hard work and partnership that has gone into vastly improving the way we deal with our waste in the east metro. We’ve come a long way in the past 30 years and have opened the door for new environmentally friendly waste management strategies for the next generation. If you’re interested in learning more about the evolution and future of recycling and energy in Ramsey and Washington counties, please visit www.morevaluelesstrash.com . Blake Huffman is Ramsey County Commissioner, District 1.

May is Lyme disease awareness month

y name is Anne Myre. Over 30 years ago I was bitten by a deer tick and got very ill. For over 20 years I was misdiagnosed with a multitude of illnesses. About 12 years ago the bottom fell out. I could not function physically or mentally. My doctor suspected Lyme disease. I had been tested for that several times over the years and always came back negative. This time my blood was sent out to a specialty lab in California and came back very positive for Lyme disease and Babesiasis (which is another disease you can get from ticks). I cried tears of relief. After all those years of struggling and misdiagnoses, I finally had an answer. I wasn’t crazy after all! Back then, it was and it still can be today, hard to find a doctor who knows how to treat someone who has had Lyme disease for a long time. Originally I had to travel to Colorado to find a specialist to treat me. Luckily after several months I found a doctor here in Minnesota who helped me continue healing. After a while I slowly got my life back. Today I live a fairly normal life. As I was going through all of this I really wanted to talk with others who

were struggling. The closest support group was Duluth, so with the help of my church, Hosanna Lutheran, and my husband, I decided to start a group of my own. Ten years ago I founded what is now Minnesota Lyme Association (MLA). While the support group is still going strong, MLA has become so much more. Our mission is to provide a supportive environment for people affected by Movers and Lyme and other tick borne diseases. We Shakers help educate the public and healthcare Anne Myre professionals in the prevention, diagnosis and effective treatment of these diseases. Our group’s medical advisor, Dr. Betty Maloney, has developed accredited CME learning modules. These are free, online presentations intended to help clinicians stay up to date with recent developments with tick borne diseases especially relevant to patient care. For more information go to www.lymecme.info/ We also have a speakers bureau that

are much higher than most people recognize. In 2013 the CDC released a new estimate of annual cases at 300,000 nationwide each year. Minnesota is one of the top 10 States with the highest number of reported cases of Lyme disease. Deer ticks are not just found in rural areas and forests. Ticks can be found in parks, golf courses and even in your own backyard. People aren’t fully aware of the risks. In my own neighborhood across my street in Scandia at least 12 people, most of them children, were diagnosed with Lyme disease last year. Prevention is my main focus. These are my top 3 things you can do to prevent being bitten by a tick: #1. Be vigilant. Do tick checks on yourself, your children and your pets. #2. Take a shower and scrub briskly immediately after coming in from an can provide factual information about area where there may be ticks. #3. Wear permetherin treated Lyme and other tick borne diseases for clothing. Buy clothing that is any interested group. pretreated or do it yourself. Be sure to At this month’s MLA meeting Dave follow instructions. Neitzel from the MN Dept. of Health, For more great information, go to a Vectorborne disease epidemiologist our website www.mnlyme.org (the bug guy) will speak on tick biology, tick bite prevention and tick control.

Age 90, of White Bear Lake, passed away peacefully on April 24, 2016. Survived by children, Mark (Marcia) DeCoster of CA, Jeff (Molly) DeCoster of Grant, Winkie (Gary) Koecher of St. Croix Falls, Fritzi (Danny) Marzolf of Highland Park, Julie DeCoster of White Bear Township; 13 grandchildren; 11 great-grandchildren; and many relatives and friends. A Memorial service was held April 27 at St. John in the Wilderness Church in White Bear Lake. Interment at a later date at Acacia Park Cemetery of Mendota Heights. Memorials preferred to the Alzheimer’s Association or Health Partners Hospice.

Age 80 of White Bear Township. John was born in St. Paul, Minnesota on July 18, 1935 to Bernice (nee Szuminski) and Joseph Pugaczewski. He attended St. Paul Johnson and met Marlene Barry while she attended St. Joseph Academy. They were married on April 11, 1959 at Sacred Heart Parish in St. Paul. John began attending the University of Minnesota for his degree. After 12 years of dedication to school and work, he graduated on June 10, 1967. He was very proud of his graduation and celebrated it yearly. He was honored to be a Minnesota Gopher and his children and grandchildren followed in his steps to the University of Minnesota. John worked as an engineer at Northwestern Bell (now CenturyLink) for over 38 years. When he was not working, he could be found on the water. His favorite places were on the boat on Bald Eagle Lake or water skiing on the St. Croix River. He and his brother, Joe, were very handy and could be found working on cars and fixing things around the house. Although not frequent travelers, he and Marlene enjoyed taking trips to Phoenix, Arizona and Las Vegas, Nevada. His sister, Theresa, got him into watching high school hockey games. He especially loved to watch the St. Paul High School Hockey Tournament each year. John and Marlene do not have any dogs, but he absolutely adores all the dogs that his children and grandchildren have. His family was the center of his life and his passion. His extra time was spent with all his family whether they were playing cards or watching hockey. More than anything, John will be remembered for his integrity, honesty, ethics, and his sense of humor. He always said, “There is no grey, only right and wrong.” John passed away, with his family by his side, on April 28, 2016 at Regions Hospital. He is preceded in death by his parents, Bernice and Joseph Pugaczewski; and his brother, Joe Pugaczewski. He will be dearly missed by his wife of 57 years, Marlene Barry Pugaczewski; his children, John “Jack” (Tina) Pugaczewski of Hugo, Laura (Rick) Dominik of White Bear Lake, and Kathie Pugaczewski of Roseville; his grandchildren, Mark Dominik, Jenna Dominik, and Emily Pugaczewski; his sister, Theresa Pugaczewski; sister-in-law, Cathy Pugaczewski; niece, Julie Bailey; grand-dogs, Molly, Lily, Chloe, and Grace. Mass of Christian Burial was May 4, 2016 at St. Mary of the Lake Catholic Church, White Bear Lake. Interment at St. Mary of the Lake Catholic Cemetery, White Bear Lake.

She is also survived by 22 grandchildren and 30 great-grandchildren. Mary Helen was preceded in death by her husband J. Henry "Bud," and her siblings John, Bob, Jimmy, Paul, Rita and Alice. She lived a faith-filled life as a devoted wife, mom, grandmother and great-grandmother. She never wanted to miss a party, and even at age 90 still called all her kids to make sure everyone was inside if there was a storm brewing anywhere in the five-state area. Her life revolved around her love of the Catholic church, her family, the Minnesota Twins, and politics — although not necessarily in that order. Funeral Mass was May 3 at St. Jude of the Lake in Mahtomedi. Memorials preferred to The Little Sisters of the Poor.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

F t off school Facts h l di district ti t consolidation I am a Mahtomedi School District resident and one of the petitioners that organized the school district consolidation effort of Stillwater No. 834 and Mahtomedi No. 832. I recently read the article "Mahtomedi nixes consolidation." This article had unsupported quotes by the Mahtomedi superintendent and School Board members. The Mahtomedi superintendent and School Board members chose not to participate in the Minnesota Department of Education public hearing where many district residents came to demonstrate researched facts.

The truth is, school district consolidation would not displace students and all students attending Mahtomedi Schools can continue to attend their current schools. The size of the Mahtomedi schools would not increase. Current teachers would keep their positions, pay and benefits and ALL schools would stay open. What would be reduced in a consolidation would be high-salaried district-level administrative employees, positions with minimal student interaction. For example, a payroll clerk making $65,000 per year — these positions would now be combined with Stillwater Schools. There would also be one shared district building (likely the Mahtomedi District Education

Center). Stillwater Schools desires to sell its Central Services Building. These two school districts are already sharing lunch services, facilities and special education services. Why not have the most expensive district-level administration shared to maximize student funding and lower property taxes? Combining state aid, reduction of transportation costs and district administrative-level expenses yielded an upfront $10 to $15 million dollars back in student programming and lowered property taxes (according to the Washington County auditor, Mahtomedi School District residents could see a 26 to 27 percent decrease in district property taxes). Real estate values would not decrease, as Mahtomedi Schools

would still retain its designated school attendance boundaries. The potential consolidation of these two school districts did come up last summer during a Mahtomedi School District Open Enrollment Task Force Meeting (well before the Stillwater School District's BOLD plan was announced). Consolidation would also help alleviate problems of a flawed and questionable open enrollment system in Mahtomedi Schools. Ponies stay Ponies and Zephyrs stay Zephyrs!

RAMSEY COUNTY SHERIFF REPORTS The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Offi ce reported the following incidents:

VADNAIS HEIGHTS • A local woman complained to the sheriff’s office recently about her old boyfriend, a 60-year-old who now lives in New York, and who will not stop calling and texting her. Hey dude, it’s over. • Two fishermen, whose luck ran out early were arrested April 13 at Wal-Mart for stealing $72 worth of fishing lures. The pair, St. Paul men ages 27 and 30, were cited for misdemeanor theft and released. • It was a fool’s errand, but he was the man for the job. The thief made three mistakes as he ran afoul of the law at Wal-Mart on April 17: First, the 39-year-old Minneapolis man shoplifted a BB gun, ground beef, spare ribs and a can of lighter fluid which he placed in his vehicle; number two, he planned to use the fluid to start a fire in his grill, which you don’t want to do because it impacts the flavor of the meat; and finally he came back into the store to rejoin his group waiting to check out. Loss prevention employees, who had been looking for the suspect after video showed him leaving the store without paying for the items pounced, and he was cited for the $132 theft. • It all began April 21 when loss prevention employees at Wal-Mart noticed a cashier return to her station without paying for a soft drink. Further observation over 2-3 weeks revealed the 23-year-old woman filling a shopping bag with items on her breaks and leaving each day without paying for the items. Video showed an accomplice involved and an investigation

continues. • A pair of 14-year-old girls, who bagged makeup products valued at a total of $235 but didn’t pay for them at Wal-Mart April 23, were found wandering around in the parking lot. Theft and trespassing charges are pending. • Seats were slashed at a fast food restaurant April 24 in the 900 block of County Road E. Two juvenile males ran away and two more headed for the roof. Parents of the roof-mounted youths were contacted about damages of $ 300-400. Criminal damage to property charges are pending.

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP • A staff member was allegedly assaulted April 13 at the Northeast Metro School District 916 Transistion Program by a 14-year-old White Bear Lake male juvenile. The boy was transported to the Ramsey County Juvenile Detention Center on fourth-degree gross-misdemeanor assault and disorderly conduct charges. • A staff member was allegedly assaulted April 14 at the Northeast Metro School District 916 Bellaire Education Center by a 16-yearold St. Paul Park male juvenile. The boy was transported to the Ramsey County Juvenile Detention Center on fourth-degree gross-misdemeanor assault and disorderly conduct charges. • A man saw a picture of a truck on E-Bay that was listed for sale for $2,000. The 19-year-old thought it “was a heck of a deal” and indicated his interest. He was told to send $1,000 down and pay the remaining $1,000 upon delivery on

April 19. The picture later proved to be just that, a picture. There never was a truck for sale and the teen was out $1,000. • It was 3 a.m. but it wasn’t Jake from State Farm calling. Deputies responded April 23 to a report of a group of 10-12, “largely intoxicated,” dysfunctional menfolk, arguing and fighting in a residence. Three males, the 23-year-old Fisher Street resident and a pair of 30-year-olds, from Brooklyn Park and Madison, Wisconsin, face pending charges of “grabbing a deputy sheriff.” An investigation continues. • A catfight between a pair of 17-year-olds broke out April 22 at the Northeast Metro School District 916. The girls, who face pending charges of fifth-degree assault and disorderly conduct, were released to parents. It is not known what the fight was about. • A man with an extensive, 43-page criminal history was caught shoplifting April 25 at Cub Foods on Meadowlands Drive. The suspect uses altered or modified driver’s licenses, credit or debit cards to return stolen merchandise to stores and had two of the cards in his pocket. The cards were confiscated and the man was jailed on a misdemeanor warrant for his arrest. Cub declined prosecution on the shoplifting charge. • A 15-year-old Roseville youth, already on probation, acted out his issues April 26 by refusing to enter his classroom at the Northeast Metro School District 916, screaming, yelling and fighting with staff. He was taken to a local hospital for a psych eval and faces charges of gross-misdemeanor assault on a staff member, disorderly conduct and obstructing the legal process.

PUBLIC SAFETY BRIEF Thief picked up after a decade Brian Keith Eischeid of White Bear Lake was given one year probation, with 30 days of service and eight days credit as a condition of his probation on April 8 for theft from his employer in

2003. He can serve it in or out of custody, and also can take a work release if he opts to serve the days in custody. Eischeid was convicted of taking merchandise from a business he worked for, Hot Seat Performance in Forest

Lake. He sold more than $4,000 of merchandise on another website at reduced prices. Eischeid admitted he did not have permission to take the merchandise and that he would turn over the proceeds to Hot Seat Performance.

However, Eischeid failed to appear for a hearing on Oct. 7, 2005. A warrant was issued and he was picked up on the warrant in 2015. He has paid the restitution amount in full.

Olson also addressed a growing issue — distracted driving due to smartphones. “It is a crime to text or email while driving,” he said. “Studies say texting and driving is more dangerous than driving while drunk.” If a driver is seen texting and driving by police, they can be charged. If that behavior injures someone else, the violator could end up in jail. The mock crash and assembly were coordinated by White Bear Lake Area teacher Josh Lane and school resource officer John Saumweber along with Kacie Allen, White Bear Lake police officer.

first offense for driving while intoxicated (DWI) causes a loss of a violator’s driver's license and a $700 fee to get it back. If a violator’s blood alcohol level is over 0.08, they can also spend 1-2 days in jail. Further offenses can land a drunk driver in jail for 30 or more days and the car can be forfeited. Violators can also be charged with a felony or sent to prison. If drunk driving causes injury to another person, the violator can also be charged with criminal vehicular operation. If someone is killed as a result of drunk driving, the violator could spend four years in prison.

WHITE BEAR LAKE — South Campus high school students participated in a mock crash with local public safety responders in front of a grandstand of classmates April 27. The purpose of the mock crash was to raise awareness about drunk — and distracted — driving. The simulation of the aftermath of a crash involved two cars of students who played the roles of teenagers involved in a drunk driving accident. White Bear Lake police, Ramsey County sheriff deputies and fire and medical responders participated in the mock crash. Students watched from the stands as the student actors were transported to hospitals in ambulances and a medical helicopter. The student who was acting as the drunk driver was arrested by a White Bear Lake police officer. Student Ani Brunson — who was pronounced dead upon arrival by public safety officers in the mock crash — read a mock letter at a schoolwide assembly the next day about what she would have told her family if she had been given the chance to say goodbye. “I never said ‘I love you’ enough,” she read from her letter. “Please don't forget me.” Dallas Brunson, Ani's father, also read a mock letter to students about how he would have felt if his only daughter had actually died in a drunk driving accident. “She had such a kind and gentle soul,” he said. “It is sad more people did not know her. I lost my only child; I had so

many dreams for her. I dreamed of walking her up the aisle for her wedding one day ... my daughter, the light of my life, is gone.” Dick Sarafolean, a retired St. Paul firefighter and paramedic and speaker for Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), shared his real-life story of how his little sister Lynn died from injuries sustained in a drunk driving crash in 1965. Dick and Lynn were delivering some plants to their grandparents when a drunk driver hit the car Dick was driving at an intersection. Dick had not been able to get his 4-year-old sister to wear a seatbelt because she was so excited to go visiting. When Dick realized he had been in a crash, he started looking for her in the car. “She wasn't sitting next to me anymore,” he said. “I found her stuffed up under the dashboard like a little doll.” Lynn survived but had a broken neck. She was confined to a wheelchair. She died at the age of 11 on the day of the anniversary of the crash from complications that developed following a surgery related to her injuries. “When drunks are involved in these crashes, they are not accidents,” said Sarafolean. Lisa Kons, traffic safety coordinator for the Minnesota Safety Council, also addressed student drivers at the assembly. “You are 100 percent responsible for your driving behavior,” said Kons. Robb Olson, White Bear Lake city prosecutor, explained the consequences of drunk and distracted driving. The

MILITARY TOP CHEF: Teaches tater tot hot dish FROM PAGE 1A

Bank building on Highway 61. He did post secondary education through high school at St. Paul Technical College and worked the opening season of the Wild before joining the Navy. During his time in the service, Andersen has earned certification as an executive chef from the American Culinary Federation and is taking classes at the Culinary Institute of America to achieve professional chef level 2. Not only does Andersen cook for Rear Admiral P. Gardner Howe, the college president, but also for Supreme Court justices, visiting dignitaries, professors and other top brass who attend the school. “We do mostly lunches that serve 20 to 30 at the Naval War College,” Andersen said. “We sometimes do an evening event, a dinner or banquet function that allows some time to have fun and prepare a bigger meal, so there are training opportunities.” Andersen’s winning meal at the master chef competition was a bit more extravagant than lighter lunch fare: foie gras, stuffed pheasant breast, wild rice pilaf, butternut squash puree,

caramelized apples with pecan and maple, glazed root vegetable and roasted pheasant mustard reduction. While it was a lot of learning and class time at the annual event, Andersen enjoyed himself and was proud of winning the award. “I had an absolute blast,” he said. “The icing on the cake is that I beat the Army, Air Force and the Marines. We gave the Navy bragging rights this year.” Once a month, Andersen also teaches cooking skills in the barracks to young enlisted seamen whose claim to fame might be mac and cheese from a box. “I teach them how to cook simple food, like homemade mac and cheese, tater tot hot dish and how to make bread,” he said. Did he say tater tot hot dish — Minnesota’s quintessential comfort food? “Yes, but I tweak it a bit.” The White Bear native, who is single, has two years left on his contract with the Navy and isn’t sure what his plans will be when that day comes. “I love my job,” Andersen said. “But I’d like to come back to White Bear Lake some day and open a restaurant. If I had a dream, that would be it.”

people who are walking to raise money to cure the disease,” she said. “So it is encouraging to see that and it is always kind of invigorating, too. It is very exciting. I look forward to it every year.” Funds raised from the walk go toward research to try to find a cure for the disease. The funds also provide assistance to those with MS. There is no cure for MS, but Machus takes medications to manage the disease. The medications can slow down relapses and help with muscle spasms. She also maintains a delicate balance of staying active, but not overdoing it, in order to keep her body healthy. Machus found a career researching another disease. She works full time at Children’s Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota as a diabetes and endocrine researcher.

She investigates new drugs to be used for diabetes and endocrine disorders in order to improve people’s health. “I used to be a patient for something else at Children’s when I was a teenager,” said Machus. “It is kind of cool to work somewhere where I used to be a patient.” She was treated at Children’s for a neurological disease which affected her hands. When she began to develop other symptoms, she discovered she also had MS. Machus studied mental health and has a master’s degree in counseling psychology. But when she heard about a research position open at Children’s, she jumped on it. “It was just kind of on a whim,” she said. “I always kind of wanted to work at Children’s or a pediatric [clinic].” For more information, visit www.walkms.org and www. nationalmssociety.org.

WHITE BEAR LAKE CITY COUNCIL NOTES The City Council conducted the following business at its April 26 meeting: • Approved award of contract to MinnCORR Industries for replacement of the municipal dock. The project will cost $529,000 with delivery in April 2017. Funding will come from the marina fund balance and future slip rentals. City Engineer Mark Burch said marina operations were already going strong. “We have already leased more slips this year than all of last year,” he told council. Finance Director Don Rambow added that the city’s municipal marina is a profitmaking venture. “There is no subsidy,” he said. “We’re in very good shape.” Councilman Doug Biehn said he favored doing business with MinnCORR, which uses prison inmates for its labor force, and teaches them skills they can use after they’re released. City Manager Ellen Richter also wanted to credit retired City Manager Mark Sather, “who has been a large part of making this happen.” • Approved licenses for 12 massage therapy establishments and 31

therapists. Three applicants have not met the city’s requirements and remain unlicensed until issues can be resolved: Sunflower Massage, New Royalty Massage and White Orchid Spa. Licensees are required to submit documentation that demonstrates they have received appropriate training as deemed reasonable by professional association standards. Criminal history checks are also conducted on each applicant. • Approved support of Ramsey County initiative “Start by Believing.” The goal of the joint initiative with the Ramsey County Attorney’s Office, St. Paul Public Health Department, local law enforcement agencies and advocacy groups is to provide education, training and outreach to improve the response while reducing the disbelief, shame or blame that survivors of sexual violence encounter. It is estimated that one in six women and one in 33 men are victims of sexual violence, with only a fraction of cases ever reported. Mayor Jo Emerson noted that “other cities will sign on, but we will be one of the first in this important

Sailing tales: A little boat on big water BY JULIE KINK CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Shoreview author Marlin Bree knows how it feels to be alone in a small boat on Lake Superior, battling a raging storm. For decades, the veteran boater and newspaperman has churned out best-selling nonfiction books and articles that stir the blood, capturing the thrill and danger of solo sailing for readers throughout the world. Bree is well known for collaborating with White Bear Lake local Gerry Spiess on “Alone Against the Atlantic,” the national bestseller about Spiess’s 1979 solo voyage across the Atlantic in his 10-foot sailboat, Yankee Girl. Now the award-winning journalist has turned to fiction. He published his fi rst novel, “Dead on the Wind,” in 2015. It draws largely on the experiences of Lake Minnetonka sailor Mike Plant, a champion racer who disappeared at sea during a solo voyage across the North Atlantic in 1992. Bree was part of the committee that organized searches for Plant, whose 60-foot sailboat Coyote was fi nally located overturned, southwest of Ireland. No trace of the sailor was ever found. The idea of the novel “snuck up me,” Bree said. “It was almost like a

mystery story unfolding in front of my eyes. The story haunted me and I started writing it as a book of fiction, but very closely following the actual events … it’s fiction inspired by fact.” For the novel, Bree places his protagonist in a fictional aroundthe-world race based on the Vendee Globe, a nonstop race that Plant had

won previously. At the book’s heart, he said, is “the battle between solo extreme sailors and the oceans of the world.” Sometimes, he adds, the ocean wins. “Dead on the Wind” is making the rounds in Hollywood and is represented by a New York literary agency that specializes in turning books into motion pictures — a process Bree said is moving “at a glacial pace.” Bree’s previous books on sailing include “Wake of the Green Storm: A Survivor’s Tale,” about his experiences in his 20-foot homemade sailboat during a 130-mph killer windstorm; “Broken Seas: True Tales of Extraordinary Seafaring Adventures,” about the boater’s voyages in the South Pacific, the North Atlantic and Lake Superior; “In the Teeth of the Northeaster,” and “Call of the North Wind,” among others. He also has written articles for several sailing magazines and publications, and is past president of the Minnesota Press Club. “There’s no such thing as writer’s block,” the 83-year old said, crediting his disciplined writing style to his days in the Minneapolis Star Tribune newsroom. He writes on a regular schedule, from a certain hour “until I pretty much run out of juice,” envisioning each fictional scene as it takes place. “I pick a high point and an ending point for that scene,” he explained, making sure that each chapter leads to the next. “You visualize the event and all you have to do is write it down.” Bree calls it his “golden bowl” — “You write as long as you can and empty the bowl of your thoughts and emotions, then you wait overnight and the bowl fi lls up so you start writing

again the next morning.” It was Bree’s fi rst boating experiences at the old Johnson Boatworks in White Bear Lake that fed his hunger for sailing and eventually led to his friendship with Gerry Spiess. Bree built his own 20-foot sloop Persistence beside his home in Shoreview, and has sailed it extensively on Lake Superior. Though tiny, the boat has space for sleeping, eating and even for writing. “Imagine taking all your sail bags, your food and water, all your clothing and heavy weather gear, plus your books and maps, sleeping bags, blankets and pillows and stuffi ng them under your dining room table — and living there for three months,” he said. After spending seven years building the boat, Bree spent time living aboard it, which he said brought him writing inspiration. Currently recovering from knee surgery, he hasn’t yet “splashed” his boat this year. “I’ll get back at it when I can. The boat will always be there for me,” he said. “Actually, I owe a lot to the little boat,” Bree remarked. “I was beginning to build it in my Shoreview garage when I fi rst heard about Gerry’s solo across the North Atlantic. When he returned, I called him in his White Bear home and he became interested in my wood veneer and epoxy boat and so he came over and looked Persistence over. A mutual respect for boat building and sailing evolved to the point where I joined him in writing ‘Alone Against the Atlantic.’ And in the white oak keel of my little boat is Gerry’s signature, for luck. “On all my voyages and adventures, I also carried two items from Yankee Girl. It all helped.”

Just call. We do it all.

Tim Sanford-Bailey

$1.00

Carrier of the month Jennifer Cherry Jennifer has been selected as carrier of the month for April 2016. She delivers two routes for Press Publications. She originally started delivering papers when she was seven years old, helping her older brother Kevin. Jennifer loves outdoor activities and is a fan of the TV program “Supernatural”.

Congratulations!!

The educators at 916 Mahtomedi Academy have selected Tim Sanford-Bailey as their 2015-16 Academic Achiever. Tim was selected because of his consistent hard work, his academic progress, and for contributing to a positive school culture in his words, thoughts, and actions. Tim’s favorite thing about school is that he enjoys learning new things and he love being able to expand his opportunities for the future. He has numerous accomplishments this year, for example, in October he was awarded Student of the Month. The accomplishment that means the most to Tim, however is the fact that this year he got caught up on all of his credits and is now ahead of schedule credit wise. When asked about advice he has for other students that want to be successful in school, Tim said, “Don’t let people bring you down. Just keep your eyes on the future because that is all that matters right now.” It is our great honor and privilege to nominate Tim for the award. He has definitely earned it. He makes our school a better place and we are very proud of him.

Mahtomedi senior scores cultural hat trick BY BRUCE STRAND CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Timothy Kuivinen is working on a grand cultural hat trick. The Mahtomedi senior has already played hockey extensively on teams in Russia and the USA, and his next will be in Canada. “Canada, USA and Russia are the Big Three for hockey,” said Kuivinen, who scored 35 goals for the Zephyrs in two seasons and helped them place third in the state his junior year. “All three have different styles of teaching. I am very fortunate to be able to experience all three styles.” Kuivinen was born in Pennsylvania, but his family moved to Russia when he was three months old, and stayed until he was 13. His father, Paul, is an ethnomusicologist, adapting Christian music to native language and culture, and conveying the music’s message. In Russia, Paul was serving the Tatar ethnic group. They lived in Kazan, a city of 1.5 million on the Volga River in the Tatar region, some 700 miles east of Moscow and west of the Ural Mountains. “I’ve always considered myself an American, but that’s definitely my roots, where I grew up,” said Kuivinen, adding that he is “tri-lingual,” speaking English, Russian and Tatar. The Americans in Kazan were a young family of five. Timothy’s mother Roxanne was a missionary, with Paul, before they settled down. He has a brother, Daniel, 20, who also played hockey at MHS, and a sister, Hannah, 16, who’ s in track and tennis. Asked about Russian life, he related that you live in an apartment, not your own house; you attend public schools (there are no private) limited to about 500 students in grades K-11 and wear a uniform of suit and tie; and you use buses or taxis rather than drive your own car. Did he see any of those onion domes? Yes, he reports, there was one atop an ancient castle in Kazan. You couldn’t trust the post office, he said; gift packages from grandparents in the U.S. were opened for security reasons and the contents sometimes disappeared. His favorite Russian foods were borsch, a soup with

beets, cabbage and beef, and pelmeni, a kind or dumplings with meat inside. One key element of Russian life was, fortunately, the same as here: hockey. Both boys played. “It was a club team and we played yearround, with only August off,” said Kuivinen. “We practiced five days a week and had games on Saturday and Sunday, from October to February.” From fourth to sixth grade, he was one of the leaders on an elite team in his community that made 12-hour bus or train trips for games. They twice won the championship of the Tatarstan Republic, a thrill that would be topped last year at Mahtomedi. He was a winger, always alongside his best buddy, named Losha. SUBMITTED “We had a well-rounded team with a very A younger Kuivinen played on a Russian team called Ak Bure. They took organized coach,” Kuivinen said. “It was the championship that year.

your left eye at address you are opening your shoulders, which unfortunately most people do. Since the driver is the longest club in your bag, you should feel like you’re reaching out a bit more with your hands. (Your arms and hands should still be relaxed with a light grip pressure) If you do this correctly, three things will happen automatically; your right shoulder will be lower than your left, your spine and head will be slightly behind the ball, and your weight will be 60 percent on your right side. This correct set up means that you will be hitting the ball on an ascending blow, not a descending blow as you would with your irons. If I had to pick the two mistakes I see most often with drivers, it’s setting up directly over the ball vs. behind (spine, head, hands and

of the

a great idea, as it will change the swing weight and head weight. What I find is that most golfers who can’t control their drivers do one of two things. One is the block to the right (inside to out swing path with an open face) and two is a slice (outside to inside with an open face). I firmly believe if you play with a shorter driver you have a much better chance of eliminating these two dreaded shots. A reliable driving game is a common denominator of all good golfers. Regardless of your abilities, a successful drive off the first tee sets a positive tone for the entire round. Most drives are missed before the ball has even been struck – in the set-up. The set up alignments for the driver are different than any other club. The drive is the only shot in golf where you have the opportunity to place the ball on a perfect lie every time. Therefore, you really should spend time and perfect your set up so you are consistent every single time. First, make sure you tee it up high. I think a 2 ¾ length tee is perfect. To start the setup, place your feet together with the ball in the middle of your stance. Keeping your left heel on the ground, flare your left toe out slightly towards the target. From there, take a step to the side with your right foot (for right handed golfers) that is the width of your shoulders. The ball position should be off your left instep, with your hands slightly behind the ball. Make sure that your feet and shoulders are parallel to each other and the target line. A lot of golfers think they should close their stance slightly, like the pros. I disagree unless you are a perfect driver of the ball. Remember, if you can’t see your left shoulder with

When I work with a new student, I always ask what they would like to work on first. One of the most common requests is hitting a longer, straighter drive. When you go to shop for a new driver, I would bet the Tee Time last thing you would ask is what length I should with Coach play. The average length of TM drivers is 45.5. Bet Betsy you didn’t know many Larey PGA Tour Pros play 44 inch drivers these days. What gives? Use the magic words, “the longest driver or the longest ball” and you will sell a lot of them. I personally think most amateurs would be better off with a 43 inch driver. It is true that the longer the shaft, the more clubhead speed you generate and speed equals distance. It is also true that centeredness of contact and angle of approach determine where you ball is ultimately going to end up. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather be in the fairway at 200 than the woods at 250 anytime. Every half inch off center hit with your driver results in a loss of five percent of distance. So it would make sense that a) your best shots will be when you hit the ball in the center of the face and b) you should play with a driver length that you can control. The Trackman Launch Monitor is one of the greatest tools ever invented for teaching pros and club fitters. It allows them to take a wealth of ball and club data to determine the best club for you. I was fitted this year for a new driver at 2nd Swing in Minneapolis. As I suspected, my driver was a bit too long. Cutting down the shaft is not

Peterson takes medalist honors at White Bear invite The roller coast week with the weather was mirrored in the play on the golf course for the Bears who were ranked second in the weekly coaches poll for AAA Boys Golf. The White Bear Lake Boys golf team competed in the White Bear Lake Invite at Indian Hills Golf Course on April 25. The Bears shot a 313, finishing second in the 19-team event. Finishing ahead of the Bears were the Hornets of Edina. The day was filled with wind, a bit of rain and an occasional snow flake reminding us all that spring has not really sprung yet. Leading the Bears was junior Jack Peterson who earned medalist honors by recording a 1 under par 71. Also scoring for the Bears was Mason Fiddle who added a 76, Casey Reif with an

81 and John Delaney who shot an 82. Friday found the Bears competing in the elite 20 team Tri-State Invitational at Edinburgh USA Course in Brooklyn Park. The mix of sprinkles, wind and the course itself proved difficult to handle by many teams. The Bears finished the two day event in ninth place. Leading the Bears was Fiddle who tied for seventh with a two day total of 151. Scott Marston battled for a two day total of 158, Peterson contributed 161 and Reif shot 165. This week the Bears have only one event competing in the third round of the conference schedule Monday May 2 at North Oaks. Submitted by Craig Nasvik, White Bear Lake golf coach

Zephyrs win two of three in MEC South St. Paul snapped Mahtomedi's four-game winning streak this past Friday when they dealt the Zephyrs a 4-3 Metro East Conference loss. Mahtomedi began the week by beating host Hastings 6-4, and then squared off against rival North St. Paul last Wednesday for their first of two matchups set for the conference season. Those expecting a nail-biter weren't disappointed. The Zephyrs claimed a 1-0 triumph, with junior Jack Schwietz outdueling Polar Louie Varland in a contest halted after five innings because of rain. Both pitchers went the distance. Schwietz allowed three hits and four walks, while striking out four. Varland gave up a lone earned run in the third inning, and finished allowing four hits while walking four and fanning six. Trevor Moses ignited the Mahtomedi offense, swiping a pair of bases and scoring the only run of the game. Joe Rock was 2-for-2, and Kyle Hinseth and John Peterson had the other hits for the Zephyrs. Coach John Hardgrove's club remains on top of the Metro East Conference with a 6-2 mark, followed by Hill-Murray (5-2), South St. Paul (5-2), Tartan (4-3), St. Thomas Academy (3-4), Hastings (3-4), North (2-5), Sibley (2-5), and Simley (2-5).

Bald Eagle Lake group sponsors zebra mussel program Local Girl Scouts recently had an opportunity to learn about the invasive zebra mussel and then help kick off a unique effort to detect the invaders in Bald Eagle Lake. The Bald Eagle Area Association (BEAA) is setting up a program to put 50 specially made devices around the lake to monitor the water to try and detect zebra mussels as soon as possible. “Citizen science is the best way to monitor for these things,” said Gary Krejcerak, BEAA president. Krejcarek and BEAA board member Jim Ascheman attended a seminar last fall where the zebra mussel detector was shown. The device has four plates separated by spacers on a bolt. The assembly is hung from docks and checked weekly to see if anything can be found. “The BEAA has a strong presence on Bald Eagle and

it seemed like a no-brainer to make these things and get them put up around the lake,” Ascheman said. Members were asked at a recent meeting if they would help with the project and, in short order, 50 folks agreed to take part. The BEAA is funding the entire effort. Property owners who have volunteered to have one of the devices on their dock will check them weekly and report their findings on a website. If any zebra mussels are found, the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) and the MinnesotaDepartment of Natural Resources will be notified immediately. Ascheman got Girl Scouts Junior Troop leader Tonya Grunewald interested, and she and the Girl Scouts quickly took to the opportunity. Ascheman showed the Girl Scouts some slides on what zebra mussels look like and what they can do

to a lake. The girls then assembled 25 of the detectors, which will soon be put in place. “It was a great way for the girls to learn about what goes on in a lake and what can happen if something like zebra mussels take hold,” said Grunewald. "Lake Doctor" Steve McComas told those attending the BEAA annual meeting that he had sampled 200 locations in Bald Eagle last fall and no zebra mussels were found. McComas has been working with the BEAA for over 20 years to monitor invasive species in the lake. He has coordinated with RCWD over the years to work to suppress invasive weeds in the lake. Bald Eagle Lake residents voluntarily established a special taxing district in 2009 to build up funds to deal with water quality issues. This led to the application of alum to the lake

Despite complaint, docks remain same in Commercial Bay White Bear Lake’s water level April 19 was 921.93 feet; almost 10 inches above last year. BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — Permits were finally granted for the municipal marina, just in time to place the order for new floating docks. The White Bear Lake Conservation District had tabled approval of the city’s dock layout until the April 19 meeting to gather more information. Among the concerns was the exact number of slips requested, as it does not conform with city code regarding density of one slip per four feet of adjacent shoreline; the exact length from shore to the end of each dock and the possibility of shrinking the width of the layout, which extends to lot lines. City Engineer Mark Burch answered the concerns, saying that the City Council granted a conditional use permit to the marina property in 1988 for a 160-slip marina. The permit remains valid today, Burch said, and into the future. He added that the city also constructed a public parking ramp with 40 stalls allocated to the marina. The dock system will take a year to complete, at a cost of $529,000, by MINNCOR Industries of Bayport, which

uses prison inmates for its labor force. In order to have the docks ready for installation in the spring of 2017, the city needs to place the order this month. The new dock system will be the same width as the existing and the same used for the past 30 years. Boat traffic, Burch said, will not impact adjacent marinas. “Both neighbors, the VFW and Pete Sampair (owner of property Acqua leases), are happy with the city’s docks,” he told the board. Docks of White Bear Lake owner, Brian McGoldrick, complained to the district about what he believes is a lack of fairness in Commercial Bay. “I came to the board last month because traffic near our marina costs me 60 boat slips. It’s a contentious situation,” he said. “Commercial Bay is about money. Look at these not as boat slips but $2,400 bills.” The marina owner was upset that the city can place its docks right to the edge of its property, but he cannot. McGoldrick also feels the “ordinances are getting pretty loose,” when it comes to the number of slips per property. “The number of boat slips is growing around us. The city ordinance is bunk,” he said. The chairman of the lake utilization committee, which dispenses dock permits, saw no reason to change

the city’s dock configuration. “The ordinance says objects going into the lake should not be within 10 feet of each other,” noted Mark Ganz. “But there are many cases on the lake where it has been allotted if neighbors are willing to come together. Both the VFW and Sampair said they’re happy with things the way they are so it seems to be no issue. It’s been like that for 30 years. My personal belief is it’s fine the way it is.” In other business, the board: • Approved the treasurer’s report. Board Chairman Jane Harper noted the “healthy reserve” of $171,000 in the district’s checking and savings account, adding it was there “in case we have to spend more on Eurasian water milfoil treatment.” • Approved a permit for the Redpath waterski course. The slalom course will be moved at least twice a month. • Heard comments from Harper regarding the augmentation bill. “There has been a lull,” she said. “If it’s not in the bonding bill, we won’t need money for our fiscal agent role.”

Ramsey county embraces the buzz with pollinator friendly initiative BY JACKIE BUSSJAEGER STAFF WRITER

RAMSEY COUNTY – As the first pollinator-friendly county in the state, Ramsey County invited residents to a “Urban Pollinators” conservation forum last week to discuss the benefits of bee-friendly living with some of the state's top bee experts. The forum follows a Feb. 9 Ramsey County Board adoption of a pollinator-friendly resolution, which aims to improve the health of pollinator populations and educate the public about pollinator best practices. Speakers included Marla Spivak, the premier bee expert from the University of Minnesota, as well as Sarah Foltz Jordan from the Xerces Society and Heather Holm, author of “Pollinators and Native Plants.” Ramsey County Commissioner Victoria Reinhart opened the forum with a presentation about the Ramsey County Pollinator Initiative. “It really is something that we have to start taking very seriously,” Reinhart said. The goals of the initiative include increasing pollinator habitat and forage, decreasing toxicity in those environments (such as herbicide and insecticide use) and raising awareness about pollinators. The county, which is the first in Minnesota to become pollinator friendly, has 1,500 acres of parks and open space. Even though Reinhart admitted she is “deathly scared of bees,” she still recognized the importance of pollinators within the county. She has started a pollinator garden of her own, and encourages Ramsey County residents to do the same. “Do what you can and figure out what works for you,” she said. “It's one yard, but it's going to make a difference.” Spivak spoke next, outlining the difference between native bees and honey bees. While honey bees do not have as many environmental benefits as native bees, honey bees are often kept in backyards and are easy to observe for population trends. Backyard beekeepers in Minnesota experienced an 80 percent loss on their colonies 2014-2015, which Spivak said was astounding. Spivak keeps an ever-changing model of the factors that affect bee populations. For bees, the main problems are pathogens, viruses and parasites; toxins such as insecticides, herbicides and even fungicides in the environment and flowerless landscapes. Spivak said the effect of low doses of toxins in the en-

vironment can affect bees in ways that can't always be obvious, such as loss of navigational skills, and increased vulnerability to already-present diseases. One problem is mites inside bee colonies, which keepers are reluctant to treat with pesticides for fear of adverse effects on the colony. The University of Minnesota offers a Bee Squad kit for beekeepers, which can help them evaluate the health of their colony and examine the best ways to manage it. As for the lack of forage, the problem is easily solved, Spivak said. “Flowers are such a good way out of the problem,” Spivak said. Not only do native blooms beautify the area, they also provide the “good, clean bee food” that is essential not only to feed bees, but help them detoxify from the man-made poisons in their environment. As people become more aware of the problems facing pollinators in their area, they are gradually moving away from the cultural standard of unadulterated turf grass in their yards, and diversifying with native flowering plants. Spivak calls the push toward more environmentally-conscious properties “The Pollinator Landscape Cultural Revolution.” “People are rethinking this landscape,” she said. While research about pollinators continues, the University of Minnesota's Bee Lab will get a major update this summer with the construction of a new research lab on the St. Paul campus. Sarah Foltz Jordan, a pollinator conservation specialist for the Great Lakes Region of the Xerces Society, presented on the life cycle of bees and their role in our environment. There are many species of birds and insects that pollinate, Jordan said, but bees are the most critical. “Bees are the only ones that collect pollen and nectar and put it on their bodies to bring home,” Jordan said. “So they are really good cross-pollinators.” Bees also exhibit what she called “flower constancy,” which means a bee will keep visiting a particular flower until the resource is exhausted. Bees are the only insects able to perform “buzz pollination,” which is where a bee detaches its flight muscles from its wings and uses them to vibrate a flower until the pollen drops. For some flowers, this is the only means of pollination. Author Heather Holm then discussed the benefits of a diversity of native plants. It is most useful for pollinators

if these plants flower in succession (some in spring, some in summer, some in fall) to give the bees a constant source of food. Holm also covered some of the differences between species of bees. There are 425 species of bee found in Minnesota, and most of them have solitary nests rather than hives. Approximately 70 percent of these bees nest in the ground, and hardly any of them are aggressive. “Most are very docile; they have no interest in stinging,” she said. The exception is usually the yellow jacket wasp, which is still regarded as a beneficial insect because of its ability to eliminate pests. Solitary wasps, she

said, are not aggressive at all. In addition to bees, there are a few other types of pollinators, such as lacewings, that can keep invading pests such as aphids out of your garden. To learn more about pollinators in Minnesota and what residents can do to improve their populations, visit www. beelab.umn.edu. The Xerces Society website at www.xerces.org also has many resources about pollinators, and includes a “Bumble Bee Watch” page where you can upload photographs of bees you have seen, identify the species and assist the Xerces Society in collecting citizen data.

BearPower: Eat well and be active WHITE BEAR LAKE — Before moving on to business at hand, Mayor Jo Emerson issued a proclamation April 26 on behalf of BearPower, a communitywide movement to help families eat well and stay active. “The city of White Bear Lake, along with BearPower, wishes to support its residents in leading healthy lives,” read the proclamation. It stated that health experts agree that eating at least five fruits and vegetables and being physically active daily promotes good health. Also noted in the document: • Since 1980, the rate of childhood obesity has tripled and in Minnesota, more than 25 percent of youth are overweight or obese. • Three out of four fi fth-graders are physically active for less than one hour each day and three out of four fi fth-graders eat vegetables only once a day. • If something isn't done to reverse these trends, children will, for the

fi rst time in history, have shorter life expectancies and more chronic illnesses than their parents. The city is committed to supporting good health by making improvements to the "built environment," the mayor said, including access to parks, trails and healthy food retailers, bike- and pedestrian-friendly streets, and adequate public transportation. “Be it resolved,” continued Emerson, “that the city of White Bear Lake supports healthy activity and eating into its plans and hereby proclaims adoption and support of BearPower in its mission to foster healthier kids and a stronger community by helping all families living and being served by the School District to eat well and be active in the city of White Bear Lake.” Dr. Elsa Nisswandt Keeler, a pediatrician with HealthPartners, described BearPower to the City Council as a community-based initiative powered by HealthPartners,

Economic development: Focus shifting to E BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — A special subcommittee of the Economic Development Corporation (EDC) held its first focus group meeting last month to share views of the County Road E corridor. Local business owners, city staff and council members met with EDC President Carol McFarlane and her subcommittee co-chair Jan Johnson to help determine a vision for County Road E, acknowledging its strengths and opportunities. “We’re trying to get a cross section of people who have interest in E,” McFarlane said. “The meeting was a chance to brainstorm about how we want to approach redevelopment. What should we talk about? The corridor isn’t just about business, but about residents and housing. We need to look at the big picture.” One of the participants, Terry Honsa, owner of Honsa Funeral Home, said she looks forward to redevelopment of the County Road E/Bellaire Avenue intersection next to her business. “I get comments from people all the time, ‘Wow, you’re in the hood,’” she said.

Resident Randy Johnson, a former city planner for Shoreview, now retired, described the corner as a “planning challenge,” taking care not to call it “blight.” Community Development Director Anne Kane said there is momentum for the intersection. The city has purchased one of the corner gas stations with plans to raze the building and prepare it for resale. As for other nearby properties, the old 7-Eleven on the northwest corner is owned by Speedway, which has six vacant surplus properties on its books, Kane said, so its marketing efforts may be spread a little thin. The underground tanks have been removed at the site, which is priced at $275,000. McFarlane acknowledged that some spots have dire need, but there are good things happening, too. “There’s a lot of potential on that corner. It’s a good stimulus to get the area redeveloped.” The group thanked builder Paul Bruggeman, who attended the April 13 meeting, for buying the former Aspen Medical Clinic and giving it a much-needed roof and remodel. The vacated Auto Owners Insurance building has potential to merge with adjacent property for higher, better use, Kane pointed out. She

added that the city tried to facilitate expansion at the site in 2014, but “they wouldn’t bite.” The company moved its headquarters to Lake Elmo. The old McDonald’s on E near White Bear Avenue is another vacant building. Kane said there are lots of inquiries, but no buyers at this point. Other comments made by attendees: • Green space is nice but doesn’t contribute to the tax base. • Is neighborhood commercial space obsolete and overbuilt? • Is brick and mortar outdated? • Does the corridor need a special taxing district similar to downtown? • Young stakeholders — millennials — should be invited to the table. The question was raised whether millennials will buy homes and do their shopping in the Sunrise area. Kane noted that there is a lot of residential development along the corridor, which, by the way, stretches from Highway 61 to East County Line. Those residential units have the price points and quality to attract young families, she said. McFarlane, who grew up in that part of town, thought the meeting was a good start on the corridor conversation. “And the response to our invitation was phenomenal. That was exciting,” she said. “People want to be engaged and be part of how we move forward. It’s a really positive first step. We have to focus on this area; it’s in need of a facelift.”

“THE MEDDLER”

(PG-13) (3) [BRIEF DRUG CONTENT.]

“MOTHER’S DAY”

— A lighthearted, funny, predictable, star-studded (Hector Elizondo, Jon Lovitz and Jennifer Garner), 118-minute chick flick comedy that follows the hectic lives of a divorced interior designer (Jennifer Aniston) taking care of two sons (Brandon Spink and Caleb Brown) in Atlanta and coming to terms with her ex-husband (Timothy Olyphant) marrying a younger woman (Shay Mitchell), a hotshot HSN host (Julia Roberts) reconnecting with the daughter (Britt Robertson) she gave up for adoption years earlier, a frustrated widowed gym owner (Jason Sudeikis) trying to raise two daughters, and two sisters (Kate Hudson and Sarah Chalke) who are keeping big secrets from their Texas parents.

Fun Fact The average person spends 2 weeks over his/her lifetime waiting for a traffic light to change.

— Gorgeous cinematography highlights this captivating, factually based, thought-provoking, 108-minute, 2015 biographical film based on Robert Kanigel’s 1991 book “The Man Who Knew Infinity: A Life of the Genius Ramanujan” in which astonishingly brilliant Hindu mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan Iyengar (Dev Patel) who is working as a clerk in an accounting department leaves his wife (Devika Bhise) and mother in Madras, India in 1914 to go to England to work with hardnosed Cambridge University professor G.H. Hardy (Jeremy Irons) to publish his prime number theories, where he finds himself struggling to fit in while being accepted by some professors (Toby Jones, Stephen Fry and Jeremy Northam) and rejected by those who are threatened.

(PG-13) (3.5) [SOME THEMATIC ELEMENTS AND SMOKING.]

— A poignant, realistic, well-acted, star-dotted (Jason Ritter, Lucy Punch, Michael McKean, Harry Hamlin and Shiri Appleby), 100-minute film in which a smothering widow (Susan Sarandon) moves from New York City to Los Angeles to be physically and emotionally closer to her screenwriter daughter (Rose Byrne), and when her daughter wants her to be less clingy, she finds herself befriending an iPhone technician (Jerrod Carmichael), paying for the vow renewal of a lesbian friend (Cecily Strong) and her wife, and falling for a kindhearted, retired cop (J.K. Simmons) with backyard chickens.

Weather tidbits

Worth a Look Forget it

— Stunning special effects dominate this suspenseful, family-oriented, entertaining, colorful, 3-D, 105-minute remake of the 1967 animated film based on Rudyard Kipling’s classic novel in which an orphaned Indian boy (Neel Sethi) who was raised by a wolf pack (voiceovers by Lupita Nyong’o, Giancarlo Esposito et al.) is protected by a panther (voiceover by Ben Kingsley), a honey-loving bear (voiceover by Bill Murray) and other animal friends when a sneaky boa constrictor (voiceover by Scarlett Johansson), a gargantuan orangutan (voiceover by Christopher Walken) and a revenge-driven leopard (voiceover by Idris Elba) threaten the boy’s life as he journeys to return to his own kind at the man village; may be too scary for young children.

Meet Your Specialist

Celia Wirth, Computer Support and Repair I have been providing friendly, patient and educational computer assistance in homes and small businesses since 2003. No need to carry your computer into a store, I come to your home or office. I can help you in your home. Enjoy your computer more. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll tune it up and answer all your questions. I can add the new wireless printer, connect your iPad to the internet, and everything in between. Consider giving a gift of my time to your parents. I can make the computer more fun for them too. I am a good option for your office. I can add a new computer to your network or POS, and be the person that calls the ISP or offsite tech support when you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to. I am usually quicker and more affordable than your offsite tech support for those small jobs that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to do. I can even set up a website for you. Especially for Seniors, I am very patient. I understand that sometimes itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not easy, even if your kids say it is. I will answer your questions over and over, and I will never make you feel foolish or bad about what you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know.
