MAHTOMEDI — Shah Khan, president of the Islamic Center of Minnesota, carries his Quran around in his pocket on his smartphone. Khan, who holds a Ph.D. and works as a scientist at a biotech company, also preaches at mosques around the Twin Cities on Fridays. “I call my sermons ‘applied Quran,’” he said, indicating he wants followers of Islam to apply the good deeds encouraged in the Quran into their daily lives and not just go through the ritual of prayer. On Sunday, Khan spoke on Islam at St. Andrew's Lutheran Church in Mahtomedi. He was part of a four-week speaker series to shed light on what the Muslim faith is really all about. He wants people to know that Islam is not really about terrorism — it is actually about peace. In fact, the standard Arabic greeting Muslims give, “salam alaikum,” means “peace be upon you.” Khan speaks at churches and organizations across the Twin Cities because he wants to spread this message. “I am a Muslim; I'm not a terrorist,” he said. Khan attributes fear of Muslims to not knowing what Islam actually teaches. “Anybody or everybody is afraid of going into a dark room,” said Khan. “Education removes the ignorance.” SEE MUSLIM, PAGE 8A
Bow hunting from a boat BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR
Two guys launching a bow fishing guide service need a change to city ordinance to access all of White Bear Lake. Nik Anderson and Ben Borowske, both ’05 grads of White Bear Lake Area High School, have been bow fishing for about 12 years, but not in Ramsey County. A city ordinance disallows discharge of firearms, and a bow is included under that definition. They'd like to see that amended. In a presentation to the City Council April 26, Anderson and Borowske explained that shooting rough fish with
a bow is far different than other types of bow hunting. It works like this: Bow fishermen troll a lake's perimeter searching for invasive fish species like carp, red horse and suckers in about 5 feet of water, both at night and midday. The fiberglass arrow is tethered by 200-pound test line to the boat and can travel only a maximum of 30 feet. They must also be 200 feet from a residence. The bow is not a typical hunting type. "The draw is dialed down to 30 to 35 pounds so it fires at low speed," Anderson told the council. "The arrow is heavier and the velocity much lower." There is definitely carp in White Bear SEE BOW HUNTING, PAGE 8A

Ben Borowske and Nik Anderson hold the tools of their sport. The two men are hoping to expand their guide service in Ramsey County.

Parents and preschoolers learn English together BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR
WHITE BEAR LAKE — Immigrants have the opportunity to learn English and attend preschool with their children at the same time, through White Bear Lake Area Schools Early Childhood Family Education. The class, called Family Literacy, is offered two days a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays at the Normandy Park Education Center. The class begins with parents and children ages birth to 5 interacting in preschool activities together. Then the parents go to a separate room for adult English as a second language (ESL) class. Meanwhile, their children learn more age-based English on their own. A parenting class is also offered to the parents. “Together the children practice and improve their English language skills through conversation, learning activities, music and more,” said Nancy Melquist, early childhood supervisor. “An Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) teacher and English/ESL teachers teach the class, focusing on both English language skills as well as parent education.” Attendees to the class noted they have seen their children blossom since coming to the class. “After visiting the class, he knows letters and expressions,” said Ananthi Poongavanam about her 23-month-old son. She starting bringing him to the class seven months ago. Jyothi Neeli's 3-yearold son was very shy when he started the class three weeks ago. “Now he tries to talk to the teachers,” said Neeli. Priya Saranya's 2-year-old daughter also bloomed in her language use from going to the class. “Now she is saying the full sentence,” said Saranya. “Now after coming here she is very fond of books.” Saranya also said she thinks her daughter will

no longer be afraid to go to school when it is time to go to kindergarten. Parents have also learned how to teach their children at home as well, which is one of the goals of the class. “I learned how to teach,” said Poongavanam. “Parents are a child's most important teacher,” said Melquist. The class recently took a field trip to the White Bear Lake library and learned how to check out books. “They didn't know how to get a library card,” said Julie Engebertson, ESL teacher.
Adult time Parents have also been advancing in their own English skills in the adult ESL portion of the class. Poongavanam moved
to the U.S. from Chennai, India three years ago. Although English is one of India's official government languages, along with Hindi, Poongavanam said the adult ESL classes have increased her confidence in speaking English while she is out shopping. The Indian friends she brought to the class concur. Deepti Solanki said she has learned American English words and slang words she
would otherwise not have learned. “It's helped me a lot in that way,” she said. “I'm learning better conversation.” Neeli and Saranya said they have learned a lot about the culture and holidays of the U.S. through the adult ESL class. In addition to the group of Indian friends, many other cultures have been represented in the Family Literacy
class, including Afghani, Ecuadorian, Eritrean, Ethiopian, Guatemalan, Honduran and Mexican. Solanki, who has only lived in the U.S. for about one year, said she has enjoyed meeting people from different cultures through the class. They sometimes share their different cuisines with each other in class. “After coming here I am not feeling depressed,” she said. “I am meeting with people. It's
fantastic. I just love this class.” The Early Childhood Family Education center also holds additional adult ESL classes on Mondays and Wednesdays. Child care is provided. Both the Family Literacy class and the adult ESL class are free for foreign-born adults. For more information, call Melquist at 651-6533101 or visit www.isd624. org.

Backyard chickens
S
everal years ago when we were living in Osceola, Wisconsin I brought home a few chickens. It was before having chickens became trendy. I had always wanted to have them. My grandparents had geese, ducks and pheasants when I was young. I loved taking care of the ducks. I knew our kids would enjoy the chickens. We had a back-up plan if anyone complained, since at the time there were no local ordinances about chickens. Our first round of chickens only lasted a few months, as a neighbor complained, and I didn’t really have a good setup for the winter. I brought them to the “Egg Man”, the guy who sold eggs daily near the park in OsceoHe was happy to take them and Publisher’s la. we were sad to see them go. They hadn’t yet started to lay eggs, but View they did have names. Carter Johnson Today, Lexington, Shoreview, Birchwood, White Bear Lake and many other communities are allowing backyard chicken coops and bee hives. Last week, the opportunity to have chickens came again. A friend was unable to care for hers due to the family dog causing problems and eating the chicken droppings. She gave us three chickens and a coop and we were on our way to instant farm fresh eggs. These chickens are old enough that each one produces an egg a day. What’s unique about today’s chickens are they only lay eggs for a few years, whereas years ago they might lay only a few eggs a week but would deliver for nearly a lifetime. The addition of chickens has been exciting for the kids. My wife is not happy about it. She thinks they are dirty and have caused unnecessary stress for our family and dog. I’m pretty sure she has made arrangements with friends to take the chickens permanently the next time I go out of town. If you’re looking to try your hand at raising chickens, I have a few words of advice. Make sure everyone in your family is bought in and have an emergency back up plan to get rid of them if it doesn’t work. Check out a few books on raising chickens. Find a chicken mentor and talk to people who have them. Be sure you have a coop and a sufficient enclosure so that the family dog or other predators such as fox or coyote can’t get to them. Add a few hens each year, as some will stop producing eggs after their second year. Remember that chickens are living, breathing animals. You can’t just get them and forget them — they need care and take work. They need fresh water daily, feed and scratch, and a place to bathe (they take dust baths). The coop will need weekly cleaning, and chicken droppings stink. The modern backyard farm is anything but easy, but can provide a great learning experience, as well as fresh eggs. Lifelong learning happens when kids learn responsibility and are exposed to food sources and understand the energy it takes to produce the food we eat. Band concert Our sixth-grader is currently playing the trombone in band. Although I tried to persuade her into percussion her mother’s voice of reason was better. Her second concert last week was markedly better than the first concert of the year. The students are really pulling it off. They are reading music and I was impressed with the duets and ensembles that were performed. As we enter into the season of parades, I can almost hear the marching band coming. This year’s theme for Manitou Days is ‘Musical Bears’. It represents the musical assets of our community, from student musicians, band directors, choir directors, and piano teachers, to local artists like Billy McLaughlin and Redpath, to the church choirs and groups like the Silver Harmony Singers. This year come check out some of your communities musical attributes. Look to the ‘What’s Happening’ section of this newspaper to find out about events and performances.

MNSure not working for Minnesota’s middle class
G
ail and Charlie Dunker struggled through the great recession along with many other Minnesotans who owned businesses. Like so many of them, the Dunkers were hard-pressed to keep up with the skyrocketing health insurance costs. Gail and Charlie worked hard to keep the premiums and deductibles from breaking the budget for their family of five. Gail had a previous bout with Legislator cancer, and although she had Lingo made it five years cancer free, the Matt Dean thought of going without insurance for her or the kids was a non-starter. MNSure came like a godsend. MNSure promised that the Dunkers could keep their doctor and plan, as well as save them thousands of dollars by allowing them to shop for affordable coverage that met their needs. Gail diligently went through the application process and received confirmation that she and her family were covered. When Gail wasn’t feeling well, she went to her family doctor. She was advised that it was unlikely anything serious, however, there was another problem. MNSure said she was uninsured. Gail kept getting worse. She went back to the doctor and was told there was a spot on her lung. They
prescribed $14,000 of tests to properly diagnose her condition. The payment was due upfront. Charlie borrowed the money and got her the tests, but could not get the treatment she needed. No insurance according to MNSure, so no deal. It didn’t matter that MNSure gave her a letter of coverage, or that the insurance company cashed her check. Gail fought with MNSure when she should have been fighting her cancer. Gail finally collapsed and was admitted to the emergency room where she could receive treatment that came too late to save her life. Minnesota is generous when it comes to paying for health coverage for the poor. We don’t require payment or a residency requirement for people who come from other states. If you qualify for Medicaid, you can receive benefits on day one, for free, even if you merely intend to live in our state. Middle class Minnesotans who have lived here their whole lives, played by the rules and paid the bills are asked to pay ever more, only to get less and less. Blue Cross Blue Shield of MN is raising its premiums again this year. In most areas, the increase is over 50%. Healthcare and daycare costs together equal a single middle class family paycheck. So middle class Minnesotans are put in a vice. You must have coverage under Obamacare, but unless you are poor or connected to a premium health plan (through the government, union or large business) you are simply out of luck.
Middle class Minnesota was thrown onto a $300 Million broken website for their healthcare. That website is wrong up to 38% of the time according to a recent Legislative Auditor’s review. They can’t get out tax forms necessary for folks to pay last year’s taxes. They wasted $270 Million paying for healthcare that people don’t qualify for, while the Dunkers were denied lifesaving care they paid for. Minnesota once led in healthcare and we can again. Other states, like Oregon and Hawaii have abandoned state based exchanges. We were told that we would have a tax benefit if we set one up, but the Supreme Court struck that down. Although MNSure is supposed to be self-supporting, MNSure has helped itself to a bailout by using state funds as an overdraft account. We now have no benefit. Only harm. I have begun a statewide effort to kill this harmful program. www. stopmnsure is collecting signatures to get rid of MNSure. The site shares the Dunker’s story and collects signatures to get rid of this program. I will not stop until I reconnect Minnesotans to the care they should have, from the doctor they choose, paid for through the insurance policy they can afford. For middle class Minnesota that starts with stop spending money we don’t have on things that hurt people. Rep. Matt Dean represents District 38B in the Minnesota House of Representatives.

Enjoying a safe spring – tips to avoid accidents
A
fter several months cooped up, Minnesotans are more than eager to enjoy spring outdoor activities.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Support funding for families in need I recently met with a young mother. Her eyes were worn as the eyes of any parent of a 3-year-old would be, and she compulsively picked at her nails. She told me she works a part-time job netting $800/month and that she was losing her child care assistance for her son. The most promising option for child care was $900/month. No mathematical wizardry is needed to figure out that this is not a viable option for her. Wanting to work, to provide for her son, she asked me, “Where can I find a job that pays more money?� There are times when this line of work crushes you. This conversation still haunts me. This young woman encapsulates the reality of so many of our neighbors — the will to work and lacking the means to do so. I write this to invite you and our lawmakers to support additional funding for the Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) and the Minnesota Family Investment Program (MFIP) to improve outcomes for our local families. Investing in these programs will not only help families find work and keep it, but additional funding will also make possible access to reliable and stable child care for our children. In its current state, the waiting list for CCAP is 7,000 families. One mother told me that by the time she was eligible, her daughter was already in grade school. As the Legislature begins negotiations, I hope lawmakers invest in CCAP and increase the MFIP cash grant. MFIP is the assistance program for our state’s poorest children and families. The MFIP cash grant has remained the same since 1986, while the costs of basic needs have increased significantly, leaving thousands of families in deep poverty and unable to afford basic needs. I was told by one of our neighbors, “The assistance is really helpful, but it isn’t enough to make ends meet. That’s why I’m at the food shelf.� Investments in CCAP and MFIP are investments in children and families, and in the future success of our children and prosperity of our state. Alicia Gatto Petersen Program Manager, White Bear Lake Area Food Shelf
Appreciate public servants As I run for Senate office, I am continually asked why I want to do this. I am a public servant. I want to help my communities. There are several topics to my agenda, but today, I focus on our public servants. I am disturbed at the recent numbers of our heroes that have recently felt that their lives have become so worthless or encumbered to continue and decide to take their own lives. It is disheartening to see those who valiantly serve to protect our freedoms on a daily basis, whether it is here or abroad, have their needs get pushed off to the side, while the media and government focus on other seemingly menial topics. As a retired firefighter, I have run through the gates of Hell with some of the bravest men and women I’ve ever known. The stresses that are seen on a daily basis have burned memories which will never go away. I’ve learned to adapt to them. However, there have been brothers and sisters in arms who
haven’t fared as well. Others who struggle to sleep at night, but continue because this is all they know, or understand there is no one else to take their place. I come from a military family. Several members have seen Hell from the inside. Several have served on the front lines of multiple fronts. I’ve listened to stories of war from several of these heroes. Many stop just short of the horrors they have witnessed. Again, memories are locked away between themselves and God. We as citizens of our respective communities should feel some sort of responsibility to help our heroes by providing the tools and resources for our responders, at home and away. It’s time that we as Minnesotans, Americans, and humans start to look at supporting those who have sacrificed their own wants and needs for those around them. We need to bring forth a change, and it starts here at home. To those who have and continue to serve on the front lines of our communities, I sincerely thank you. Chris Belflower Mahtomedi
Honor emergency medical personnel Each year, police officers, firefighters and EMS crews respond to more than 240 million 911 calls. Our local paramedics, EMTs and other first responders are vital to our communities in times of emergency. These first responders are typically the unsung heroes of our stories. In the midst of crisis, when we rely on them most, there is often no time to thank them. That’s why on Tuesday, May 17, Regions Hospital will host its annual Rig Wash to honor emergency medical personnel in the Twin Cities and western Wisconsin. On that day, our physicians and nurses will honor our EMS colleagues by washing emergency vehicles of local services. As the medical director of Regions Hospital Emergency Medical Services, I witness the magnitude of our first responders every day. Our patients start receiving essential care from EMS crews on the streets before they even reach the hospital. Crews’ skills and quick actions can make the difference between life and death. Please join us as we say thank you to our first responders and celebrate National EMS Week. The Twin Cities is fortunate to have EMS providers that are among the finest in the nation. RJ Frascone, MD Medical Director, Regions Hospital Emergency Medical Services
Thank you to White Bear Recently, I had the pleasure to speak with and engage in a conversation with members of the White Bear Area Chamber of Commerce and to share with them the impact of the University of Minnesota on your community and the upward trajectory of the U. Thank you to Ramsey County Commissioner Victoria Reinhardt, White Bear Lake Mayor Jo Emerson, White Bear Lake Area Schools Superintendent Michael Lovett and many other community leaders
for attending, and to Veeco — one of the region’s innovation leaders — for hosting the event. Besides noting that the U is, by all measures, among the nation’s Top Ten public research universities — with top-notch students, world-class faculty and groundbreaking discoveries — I shared some impressive statistics with Chamber members. For instance, in the three state Senate districts that include White Bear, Mahtomedi and Vadnais Heights, our impact is profound. There are more than 19,000 U alumni who earned more than 25,000 degrees on all of our campuses — from Duluth to Morris and the Twin Cities, and from Crookston to Rochester. These alumni are the area’s doctors, engineers, nurses, teachers, veterinarians, dentists, pharmacists, and business and civic leaders, to name a few. We have nearly 1,500 University employees living in your communities, paying taxes, shopping at your stores, voting in your elections. And there are 2,800 University of Minnesota students whose families live in your communities. The U’s impact in your communities and statewide helps fuel Minnesota’s health, prosperity, civic engagement and culture of innovation. Thank you, White Bear Area Chamber of Commerce, for the opportunity to share the University’s powerful story. Eric W. Kaler President, University of Minnesota
Quilt, not melting pot When I saw the title of Sen. Chamberlain’s “Deconstruction of the ‘Melting Pot,’� (4/27) I was hopeful that he was aiming to take on this misunderstood analogy, but I was disappointed that he instead took to defending it. While I agree with Sen. Chamberlain’s call to come together to serve the greater good, the analogy of a “melting pot� minimizes differences instead of embracing them. A melting pot asks those who are different to blend in and be more like the rest of us. Traditionally marginalized groups have been asked to do this throughout the history of our country, and it is easy to blame those who are different for not fitting in and causing problems. Those in positions of privilege (race, gender, class, sexuality, religion) have the responsibility of embracing and engaging differences. When we ask people to blend in, we lose the diversity of thought that will help us solve the complex challenges that we face. The challenges of the 21st century will require new ways of thinking and communicating. I would encourage Sen. Chamberlain to embrace the idea of a quilt, where differences are not minimized but instead brought together to make something more beautiful than any one square (or pot) can be by itself. Building the thread and sewing these different pieces of the quilt together for the common good is the work that our democracy requires. Robert Anderson White Bear Lake

PUBLIC SAFETY BRIEFS Disgruntled evicted renter charged with burglary Ashley R. Bedell, 27, of Mahtomedi was charged with second-degree burglary of a dwelling April 13. She is on probation for five years on the following conditions: 30 days of Sentence to Service with three days credit. She can serve it in or out of custody, and also can take a work release if she opts to serve the days in custody. The probation also includes: no use of alcohol or drugs and submit to random testing; obtain a chemical dependency evaluation; provide a DNA sample; cooperate with the transfer of probation to state or county of residence; abide by all of the standard rules of probation.
Bedell broke windows on a property she previously rented in Willernie, according to a complaint from Washington County. She had been evicted from the property on July 1, 2015 and broke almost all of the windows in the middle of the night July 11. She also damaged a window on an adjacent business, on the same property. A neighbor reported he saw Bedell causing damage. Bedell was found by law enforcement at her new residence and admitted to causing the damage. She “did so because she was upset with [the landlord] for evicting her from the property,” the complaint stated.

RAMSEY COUNTY SHERIFF REPORTS The Ramsey County Sheriff's Office reported the following incidents:
VADNAIS HEIGHTS • A woman called 911 on April 27 and reported that her boyfriend had hit her in the head following an argument about the man being married. “I didn’t know he had a wife,” the local woman told deputies. The 44-year-old victim was taken to St. John’s Hospital for treatment. The man called his wife for a ride and left the County Road D apartment. Deputies are looking for the 46-yearold Maplewood suspect on an assault charge, enhanced to a felony due to his criminal history. • A 21-year-old St. Paul man careening down Hwy. 96 at McMenemy Street at 78 mph the night of April 28 was pulled over and arrested. He was also charged with pot possession, possession of drug paraphernalia and driving after license revocation before being jailed. His vehicle was turned over to a valid driver, his 18-year-old girlfriend who was along for the ride. • A cashier at Wal-Mart loaded up a
gift card with $304 on April 29, but never transferred the funds. This was caught on video, according to store loss prevention employees, and the 20-year-old Little Canada woman was charged with theft of $304. • Deputies responded to a report of an injured dog May 1 in the 300 block of Oakwood Terrace. The small dog named Cujo, described as “young adult male Chihuahua mix” was not in good shape so deputies, on the way to Hillcrest Animal Hospital, changed their destination to the 24hour Animal Emergency & Referral Center in Oakdale. It was unknown whether the injuries occurred as a result of a roadway incident or a fight with another dog. The injured animal, now at Hillcrest, has incurred $900 in X-ray and treatment costs and efforts are being made to help the owner family identify funding to help with the bills. • A girl, sobbing while walking down Centerville Road the morning of May 2, was noticed by a passing deputy and asked if she was OK. The 16-year-old flat-out volunteered that she was wanted in Cambridge on a felony warrant for a probation
violation involving the possession of a fi rearm. She was booked into the Ramsey County Juvenile Detention Center. • A Wal-Mart greeter who left her purse unattended “just for a minute” reported the theft of her wallet containing “less that a dollar’s worth of change,” and a debit card the evening of May 3. No suspects. • For want of a seatbelt, this guy went to jail. A 32-year-old local man driving down Manor Street the morning of May 3, drew attention to himself by not buckling up. A passing deputy noticed the indiscretion, turned around and pulled the man over. He was also charged with driving after license suspension and violation of a no-contact order against his mother, who was in the vehicle. The vehicle was impounded, along with the man.
WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP • An unruly youth with anger management issues was arrested April 26 at Northeast Metro School District 916 on charges of gross-mis-
demeanor fourth-degree assault against both a male and female staff member, disorderly conduct, obstructing the legal process and resisting arrest. The 15-year-old boy was transported to a local hospital for a psych evaluation. • Ramsey County Animal Control is investigating an April 28 complaint that a “pair of loose cats on Oakmede Lane are eating wild birds.” • A deputy observed a vehicle parked at the Tamarack Nature Center after hours on April 28 with the driver slumped over the wheel. The slumper proved to be a 17-year-old local youth who smelled of pot. The youth was in possession of 1.4 grams of suspected marijuana and the case was referred to the county attorney’s office. • While an employee of Arby’s in the 1000 block of Meadowlands Drive was examining the $20 bill May 2 before handing over the “bourbon and bacon” sandwich plus change, the driver at the window sped off in an “older Chevy Suburban.” The bill was deemed to be counterfeit.

HEALTH TRENDS Creativity & Health?
To “be in your body” is to embrace the fullness of physicality. Dance is often seen as a scary thing in this culture unless you have a lot of training
and grace. And yet, you knew as a child, that you were a dancer just because your music carried you away. Moving our bodies without a care wakes us up
and helps us tap into something magical within. Studies show that moving our bodies is so good for us. When we listen to our body, we discover it really wants to express itself. The body wants to PLAY, and
so does our spirit. We need to express ourselves through our bodies our whole life, young or old, it doesn’t matter. But the number one excuse for not being in our bodies, it turns out, is selfconsciousness.

MUSLIM: Explains the Islamic faith at church-sponsored event FROM PAGE 1A
The Quran speaks against terrorism, since it states, “If you kill an innocent soul it is like you are killing the entire humanity,” said Khan. “They are misinterpreting the Quran,” he said. Justice is an important aspect of Islam, but when people try to find justice on their own it gets “out of control,” he said. Khan also said many young Muslims who say they are committing suicide in the name of Islam have not thoroughly studied the Quran. Khan thinks the root cause of terrorism comes from other issues. “Most of the people doing these kinds of things are going through a turmoil in their life,” said Khan. Khan thinks that if schools, hospitals and jobs were readily available in some of the poorest nations where terrorism begins, there would be more peace in the world. “These are simple things that can change the world,” he said. “You can't bring peace with a gun.” Khan grew up in south central India with Hindu friends, with some of whom he is still in touch. He attended a Catholic school in India as well. His own children in the U.S. have friends from a variety of backgrounds. “When kids can get along, why not adults?” he said.
Immigration and misunderstanding Khan is bothered by Republican presidential candidate frontrunner Donald Trump's statements about keeping Muslims from coming to America due to recent terrorism in the world. “To be politically correct, we are all immigrants,” said Khan. Yet he understands people could be concerned about Sharia law being implemented in the U.S. and regulating public life.
“Their concerns are valid,” he said. “But they don't know who these people are. Not everybody is coming here as a terrorist.” Khan doubts Sharia law would ever be imposed by refugees seeking asylum. He said when refugees leave Syria, they don't know where they are going. They are just escaping a rough life. And they lose family members in the process. “When people come like that it, becomes practically impossible for me to believe they are going to impose Sharia law and take over America,” he said. Khan appreciates the freedom of religion in the U.S.
Islam explained Khan said a Muslim lives out his faith by giving to others. “Worship is being in the community and taking care of each other,” he said. Khan said finding out the needs of others in the congregation is part of worship. One of Khan's favorite verses in the Quran is in the surah (chapter) of Al-Baqarah: “Righteousness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west, but [true] righteousness is [in] one who believes in Allah, the Last Day, the angels, the Book, and the prophets and gives wealth, in spite of love for it, to relatives, orphans, the needy, the traveler, those who ask [for help]....” (2:177). Khan believes that piety in Islam is about “taking care of society and community.” “Worship is all about pleasing God — how do you make God happy?” he said. “If we consider ourselves children of God, how can He be happy when we are fighting among ourselves?” Khan said that the Prophet Muhammad said a combination of good deeds and the grace of God is what gets someone to heaven. “No matter what I do here, it is by the grace of God,”
said Khan. The Prophet Muhammad also told his own child she would need to do good deeds and depend on God to go to heaven, not her status as a prophet's daughter. “So, you have to keep striving,” said Khan. Forgiveness from God is based on repentance. “You raise your hands and ask for forgiveness — only He knows when or if He forgives,” said Khan. “Justice is given a lot Khan of importance in Islam,” said Khan. The Quran says that if someone slaps you, you can slap back. But it also emphasizes forgiveness. “And then God says, if your enemy asks for forgiveness, forgive him,” said Khan. “Justice and forgiveness are the top priorities for Muslims.” Khan said Christianity, Islam and Judaism are related, but that Muslims believe the Prophet Muhammad received the “final edition” about faith in God in the Quran, said Khan. “Christians, Muslims and Jews are first cousins,” said Khan. Muslims respect Moses and Jesus as prophets, but do not believe that Jesus is the Son of God. The Quran states that “Allah neither begot anyone nor was he begotten,” said Khan. The Muslim community in Minnesota is estimated at 150,000. There are between 6 and 8 million Muslims in the United States. For more information, visit saintandrews.org and islamiccentermn.org.
BOW HUNTING: Seeking ordinance change FROM PAGE 1A
Lake, they said, even more than in Bald Eagle. It is illegal to shoot game fish. "Common carp are our targets," Anderson said. "Carp eat the eggs of game fish and stir up the bottom. They have no predators once they reach adult age, which only takes one year. The DNR nets rough fish to reduce the populations, so this works hand in hand. Most homeowners like to see us." The fish are given to a farmer for disposal, who buries the catch for fertilizer. The sport is currently allowed on the east side of White Bear Lake in Mahtomedi (Washington County) but the men would like to expand to Ramsey County and "have the freedom to travel the entire lake." They are also working with White Bear Township to amend its ordinance. Calling it a fast-growing sport, Anderson noted there aren't many guided shoots in the Northeast Metro. They call
their fledgling business B.A. Bowfishing Guide Service, after their last names. Both have day jobs; Anderson works at 3M and Borowske works for Ramsey County Public Works. Councilman Bill Walsh asked about their client base. Anderson replied that they have plenty of friends in the area who want to do this. "We are seeing a lot of demand," Anderson said, "especially on our Facebook site." Councilman Dan Jones asked if they had fished Birch Lake. Borowske pointed out that they cannot currently bow fish anywhere in Ramsey County. Most of their bow fishing is done in Chisago and Washington counties, where firearm discharge on some lakes is allowed. Mayor Jo Emerson told the men the council "will mull this over and see where it takes us." An ordinance change would be limited to bow fishing with a tether only.

Ramsey County Parks & Recreation officials got the green light at the town meeting May 2 for a conditional use permit to make a number of changes to the property at 5287 Otter Lake Road, but not before residents had their say on traffic safety and potential light pollution. "I'm concerned about the increased traffic," said Chad Erickson, of Otter Lake Road. "It would be nice if Ramsey County looked at putting a crosswalk at Lorane Avenue so people in the community could walk there rather than having to drive across the street." Other suggestions to deal with an increase in popularity of the site included adding a turn lane to access the nature center, implementing a slower school speed zone around the hours of operation of the early learning center, and addressing parking issues along Otter Lake Road. Town board supervisors were equally encouraging that county officials should investigate vehicle access issues and road safety when developing the site plan in more detail. "It's great that we haven't had any accidents or incidents there, but what we need to do to ensure that remains the case for the next 10-20 years is just as important," said Chair Bob Kermes. Ramsey County had not responded to a request for comment on whether any of the suggestions would be investigated further before the White Bear Press deadline. In its conditional use permit application, the 320-acre
Tamarack Nature Center preserve requested permission to relocate its access road south of its current location, add new parking lots to almost double the number of parking spaces to 150, add a new early childhood learning center building and reconfigure the existing parking lot and drive lane. Residents living nearby — while generally supportive of the center — asked the county to re-examine its plans with regard to traffic on Otter Lake Road and other additions, such as motion-sensitive LED lighting in the parking lots and the relocation of a dumpster. "There have been nights that they have left the lights on [at the Tamarack Nature Center] and it shines right in our bedroom window," said Shirley Noeker. "What's going to happen if the deer go past these lights? Because we have a lot of deer. Will [the lights] keep flashing on and off?" Gus Blumer, landscape architect with Ramsey County, admitted it was possible deer could set off the lights, but added they illuminated and dimmed gradually, rather than flashing on and off, and could be restricted by a timer. Following the approval from the town board on May 2, the final design process for this phase of the nature center expansion is expected to be completed in June, followed by contractor selection and construction starting in mid-August.

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP NOTES The White Bear Township Board of Supervisors took the following action at its meeting May 2: • Approved spending up to $800 to host a movie in Polar Lakes Park at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, May 21. The film to be shown is Disney's “The Good Dinosaur,” and was floated initially by local company Twilight Zone Cinema, which will use the event — which is free and open to the public — for staff training purposes. • Approved the renewal of a nonconforming use permit for North Oaks Lawn Service, which has stored equipment at property at 5566 Peterson Road since 2010. • Approved a permitted use standards permit for Nextern, a manufacturing solutions company at 1185 Birch Lake Boulevard South, which can now proceed with plans to construct a new office/manufacturing building on the site. The town board also approved Nextern's request to amend the part of the zoning ordinance for paved parking areas and driveways in the I-1 Light Industrial zone, permitting side and rear yard setbacks of at least 5 feet, as long as the front yard setback is at least 60 feet, green space exceeds 50 percent, all adjacent properties are zoned I-1 and the parcel area is less than 5 acres. The decision impacts Nextern's plans favorably; the ordinance previously required a rear setback of 30 feet and side setback of 15 feet. • Awarded a contract worth $5,115 to RES
Specialty Pyrotechnics for the Township Day fireworks. • Approved the hiring of Gregory Horst and Allen Anderson for public works maintenance worker positions. • Awarded the $5,600 contract for the interior cleaning and inspection of the Hammond Road and Northeast water towers to Water Tower Clean & Coat Inc. of Lodi, Wisconsin. • Awarded a $15,000 contract to Pavement Resources of Ham Lake for crack sealing on township roads scheduled for seal coating this summer. • Awarded a $33,430 contract to T.

Wolf pups arrive at the Wildlife Science Center!
JIM ANDERSON | SUBMITTED
The first litter of the year was born April 15, but the WSC could be expecting more pups this spring. BY JACKIE BUSSJAEGER STAFF WRITER
The Wildlife Science Center in Columbus recently welcomed several new members to the pack: the year’s first litter of wolf pups was born on April 15. Some pups will be hand-reared to research cognitive behaviors, and others will raised by the mother wolf. Roberta Ryan is an animal care and education assistant at the WSC, and she shared some of the details about caring for the new pups. “Each pup needs a file created for it, paperwork filled out and a digital record. All pups are assigned a unique number, and have a small portion of fur cut short to aid in identification. They are then weighed to get a baseline on their health and to keep track of their growth. How do you weigh a wolf pup? With a WSC tote bag and a fish scale, of course! “The pups are fed every four hours, but before they can eat, they have to be
stimulated to urinate and defecate. At such a young age, the pups don’t have control of their bowels, and they are unable to relieve themselves without a little help. Mother wolves lick the pups in their groin area to get things moving, and actually consume the urine or feces to keep the den neat and tidy. Our puppy nannies don’t go quite that far, but they do use cotton balls to get things moving for the pups. After they’ve been emptied out, an updated weight is taken. “Hand-raised wolf pups are fed Esbilac, a dog puppy milk replacement. It may look like mother’s milk, but wolf pups are hard to fool, and they know that this stuff doesn’t smell or taste like mom. The rubber nipples we use to feed them certainly don’t feel like mom, either! All of these changes can make it difficult for pups to transition to bottle-feeding, and the first couple feedings can be stressful for pups and nannies alike. Eventually, the pups learn to associate the bottle with the comforting full feeling they get from drinking, and

Some of these newborn wolf pups will be hand-raised so researchers can use them to study wolf behaviors and learn more about their wild counterparts.
feedings begin to go much smoother. “Just like humans, wolves with full bellies like to snooze! It doesn’t take long until the pups have climbed on top of one another, falling into a deep sleep. The pups whine, moan and even howl while they dream, with everything from their tongues to their toes twitching to-and-fro. Intermittently, they get up and crawl around, napping until it’s time to start the process all over again!” There are a few more litters of pups on the way, but the WSC isn’t certain how many. Another research project that the organization is involved with requires testing a contraceptive for the Mexican gray wolf recovery program. Researchers had used the contraceptive on wolves for years, and found that captive breeding success was low when they took animals off of it. The center
gave it to some of the proven breeders in the past, and is still finding that some of those wolves are unable to produce pups. The contraceptive appears to have lasting effects, and may sterilize an animal for life. Contraceptive research is vital for endangered wolf recovery efforts, but makes it difficult to guess how many litters the WSC will have. The WSC is still in the process of fundraising to construct a new facility and move the animals to a location in Linwood. So far, the center has raised $160,353.54 of its $500,000 goal, and is in the process of finalizing building plans.

Ryan will also be maintaining a blog about the puppies progress, which can also be found on the WSC website.

Plans afoot for ped trail on Warner Avenue Busy street targeted for possible safe route to school
BY LORETTA HARDING CONTRIBUTING WRITER
The Mahtomedi City Council at its May 3 meeting entertained a suggestion from resident Steve Wolgamot that Warner Avenue become a single-lane, two-way street straddled by marked shoulders for bicyclists and walkers. When he was a member of the District 832 school board, Wolgamot helped initiate a study conducted by design consultants to determine whether Warner Avenue, which passes in front of O. H. Anderson School, could become what is known as a Safe Route to School. In its present configuration, the road is not a safe route for anyone, being narrow and without shoulders, Wolgamot said. Additionally, Hall Avenue/Birchwood Road in Birchwood, site of a recent hit-and-run accident involving a pedestrian, is not a safe street. He said some drivers use Hall Avenue as a shortcut, which poses a danger to pedestrians. The road works as a shortcut only when drivers speed, he said. A road configuration with only one lane for two-way motorized traffic, which must slow down to pass the oncom-
ing vehicle, would naturally reduce vehicle speed, Wolgamot said. On an advisory bike lane street, one motorized vehicle lane is sandwiched between pedal and pedestrian lanes marked by dashes. The theory is that when oncoming vehicles meet, they are allowed to use the bike/pedestrian lanes to pass each other. The beauty of the system, he said, is that when bikers, walkers, skateboarders or Razor riders are using the lanes in which they have the right of way, vehicles have no choice but to slow down or stop to wait for an opportunity to pass. The system was invented in Holland and is used experimentally in five states, including Minnesota, Wolgamot said. All that is needed, Wolgamot said, is to change the striping on the pavement and place explanatory signage along the route. It wouldn't take long to educate motorists, he said. It's a low-cost solution to set up and maintain. There would be no changes to the snowplowing scheme, Wolgamot added. City Engineer Jay Kennedy said he wasn't aware of any specific information on advisory bike lanes, but said that
city staff could obtain data and look at possible steps to take. Councilman Joel Schilling questioned whether motorists might be confused about the legality of crossing over the dashed lines into the bike/pedestrian lanes. As for signs explaining the whole thing, Schilling noted that he was not a big fan of signage. “It's gotten out of control,” he said. “We need more discussion.” For example, a pedestrian must have a reasonable expectation that drivers would defer to them, he said. “I think it's not a bad idea,” said Councilman Richard Brainerd. “We might find other places in the city where you could do the same thing.” Under the advisory bike lane arrangement, cyclists wouldn't have to worry about being “doored,” he said. Council directed city staff to conduct independent research according to their expertise to determine whether advisory bike lanes are feasible in Mahtomedi. “There's a lot of moving parts here,” Brainerd said. “There's got to be a way to put our arms around this and make sense of this.” Look for the topic to appear for further discussion on an upcoming council meeting agenda.

MAHTOMEDI CITY COUNCIL NOTES
OBITUARY NOTICE
The Mahtomedi City Council took the following action at its May 3 meeting: • Heard a presentation from Manager Daniel Persaud and Senior Associate Lucas Chase of the auditing firm CliftonLarsonAllen on the city's 2015 audit. By law, an auditing firm must communicate with the city about whether it thinks the city's financial statements are free from any material misstatement and to communicate any future Government Accounting Standards Board changes. The auditors gave an unmodified, clean opinion, which showed no exceptions to legal compliance — the highest endorsement they could give, Chase said. The city has received the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence for the 24th consecutive year, auditors said. • Learned from Anna Raway, director of outreach and sales for Coventry of Mahtomedi Assisted Living & Memory Care, that the 48-unit senior care facility will be celebrating five years in Mahtomedi by holding an Armed Forces Day Open House & BBQ on Saturday, May 21. To commemorate the installation of a flagpole, American Legion Post 507 will present the colors at 10:30 a.m., followed by lunch and ice cream from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. The public is welcome to tour the community and enter to win prizes. Raway said she plans to attend regular council meetings to seek a partnership with council to combat Alzheimer’s disease. • Appointed Mayor Judson Marshall and Councilman Timothy Deans to the Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee. Schilling was appointed as alternate. Other members include Greg Maples, Finance Commission; Scott Peterson and Christine Ahmann-Maples, Environmental Commission; Susan Stewart and Mike Hedquist, Planning Commission; Jeff Charlesworth and Ben Reiss, Parks Commission. City Planner Erin Perdue will chair the meetings, which will take place every other month until the end of 2017 when the draft plan is expected to be complete. The plan will appear before council for review and adoption by 2018. • Received the first-quarter budget report from Finance Director Scott Schaeffer. The city has collected just 3.68 percent of its revenue, which is slightly down from last year because the city won't start collecting taxes until July, Schaeffer said. First-quarter spending of $495,000 at 9.58 percent of the annual budget is also slightly lower than last year, he said. • Approved the first of seven 25-year solar garden subscription agreements in North Branch to receive a one-cent credit per kilowatt hour reduction on the city's electricity bill. The city will save $13,435 from the first garden for the next 25 years and some $158,000 from all seven gardens over that same period – or $6,700 per year, City Administrator Scott Neilson
said. A municipality may receive credit for subscribing to a solar garden that is in or adjacent to the county in which it's located, he said. • Approved an assessment agreement directing the Washington County Assessor to perform assessment services. Either party may terminate the deal with six-month notice. • Authorized the preparation of plans and specifications and advertisement for bids on phase 1 of the White Bear Lake outlet improvements project. During the citywide annual outlet inspection, the Public Works Department identified a need to evaluate in coordination with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and rehabilitate a number of storm sewer outlets discharging into the lake. Proposed improvements are expected to be completed in the fall or winter. • Added Locust Street between Warner Avenue N. and Mahtomedi Avenue to the city's Municipal State Aid System. The system allows cities with a population of more than 5,000 to be eligible for constitutionally dedicated funding for road improvements and maintenance. An additional 0.07 miles of street could be be designated within the State Aid system. The city requested this segment of Locust Street be included. • Authorized the Public Works Department to hire three seasonal employees contingent on the successful completion of several tests and checks. One employee has worked for the department for at least three years and will receive $14 per hour, and the two other new employees will receive $11 per hour. Adequate funds have been allocated in the 2016 public works budget to fund the positions, Public Works Director Bruce Thielen said. • Learned from Administrator Neilson that the city collected 12,052 pounds of unwanted electronics during the April 23 Rite of Spring recycling campaign for CFL light bulbs, electronics and unused medications. The amount of electronics collected is down from the record 19,000 pounds of several years ago, he said. • Discussed possible downtown parking solutions after receiving numerous complaints about the high volume of parked vehicles belonging to Piccadilly Square construction subcontractors. The city hopes to remedy the problem before the farmers market starts in mid-June and before road construction on County Road 12 starts this fall or early next spring. The council next meets at 7 p.m. Tuesday, May 17 at City Hall, 600 Stillwater Road. Loretta Harding

LOOKING BACK Week of May 8 – May 14 2016 1916 Last Saturday evening the Senior Class presented the play Hurry, Hurry, Hurry, with the cast of characters as published last week.

This was decided last week when the team played off a tie with the White Bear Lumber Company…In these days when we are practically at war; White Bear should make a generous display of flags. The Press has orders for three and must have an order for six in order to get them. Order now. Decoration Day is near at hand…. 1966 Congratulations to Harry Meyer and the members of the band for receiving a star rating from all three judges in the Minnesota Music Contest. This is the highest rating that a band can receive….. 1991 The engagement is announced of Eva Rolloff, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Rolloff, of New Ulm, and Joel Carlson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Carlson of White Bear Lake. A June wedding is planned….

It actually means “beautiful beautiful” in honor of their grandfather, twin sisters Wanda Wosika of Mahtomedi and Dona Neubauer of Grant explain.

Dunnigan changing lacrosse program in style BY MARK AGUIRRE CONTRIBUTING WRITER
The foundation for the White Bear Lake girls’ lacrosse team is being laid, and the construction project appears ahead of schedule. Head coach Colleen Dunnigan, just a handful of years removed from when she starred in hockey and lacrosse at White Bear Lake Area High School, has been the chief architect. Her friends and fellow Minnesota State-Mankato graduates, Valerie Ness and Kailey Covard serve as assistant coaches and master brick layers. “We’ve got great help from everyone.” said Dunnigan. “After the coach left late in the season last year to take another job, we had to start from scratch.” Dunnigan and company immediately added off field bonding activities, and fund-raising events to the team calendar. “We’ve bagged groceries at Cub Foods to help raise money for the program, had a plant sale, and worked with the White Bear Lake food shelf,” she said. “Now we also have a parent’s advisory group and a booster club.” Dunnigan said she’s more concerned about those things, than wins and losses this spring. But the Bears have been very competitive this year with a 2-5 overall record that includes a pair of stinging one-goal setbacks to Suburban East Conference foes Roseville and Mounds View last week. “We should have won both games,” said Dunnigan. “It’s still a positive that we play a close game with a team like Roseville. They beat White Bear by a ton of goals last year.” Not this time out, however. Bear standout Memee Dao had a half-dozen goals against the Raiders and fellow sophomore Sally Moris added four goals in a 14-13 loss. Ciara Bond had seven assists and added a goal and two helpers against Mounds View. Forward Dao, in her third season on the varsity, led everyone with six goals in an 11-10 loss against the Mustangs. Brittany Johansen has manned the nets for the Bears all season. She had seven saves against Roseville, and 10 against Mounds View. Dunnigan studied mass communications and marketing at Mankato, and hopes to cut into the business world some day by owning her own hair salon. She is a stylist herself, and cuts the hair of a number of her players. Now that’s bonding.
ANN NASH | SUBMITTED
Memee Dao of White Bear Lake fires a shot.
“Colleen always played hard, and I know she has a passion for (lacrosse),” offered Bear girls’ hockey coach Jerry Kwapick, who coached Dunnigan. “She’s very mature for her age, and made a great move in bringing in Val (Ness) and Kailey (Colvard). I love to see alumni come back and coach. It’s great. I recommended her for the job.” The remaining schedule before sections rolls
around includes both tough and winnable games. “We are a work in progress, but have so many young and talented players,” said Dunnigan. “We want to get progressively better, and teach our players that they are as good as anyone ... and can go on and play collegiate lacrosse.” The Bears entertain Suburban East foe Forest Lake on Wednesday.

your elbows attached to your sides, it’s easy. Let your right elbow slide along your rib cage on your backswing and your left elbow along your rib cage on your forward swing. No blocking. The key is setting up correctly. Finally, you need to be aligned to the target line. That means you must be able to read the green correctly to determine the line. In the next few weeks I’ll write about green reading and an easy way to find the perfect tempo for your putting stroke. If you have any questions, please
of the
through. When you set up to the ball, your alignment should look like this. Hips should be over your heels with your weight on your heels. This helps keep your lower body still. Eyes should be over or slightly inside the ball. Here’s a good one you’ve never heard. Make sure your eyes are level. If you are a left eye dominant right handed player, there’s a good chance your head could be tilted slightly left. (Your dominant eye will always try and find the ball). If you’re that player, your miss will generally be to the right. True story. Your forearms should be parallel. If your right arm is higher than your left, it’s easy to block the shot and leave it right. The easiest way I know to get them parallel is to get your grip and rotate your elbows inward towards your body. Start by standing straight up, holding the putter parallel to the ground in front of you. Get your grip, then rotate your elbows inward and pull them in towards your ribs. This anchors your arms to your body. From there, bend at the hips and let the sole of the club rest flat on the ground. The shaft and your forearms should be perfectly parallel. I guarantee you will be using your shoulders to make the stroke from that position. If the sole of your club is not flat on the ground, chances are pretty good it’s too long for you. The biggest mistake I see players make is blocking putts. You’ve got to let the putter head work through the arc. With

Technically speaking, putting should be simple. The ball never leaves the ground. The question is, why is it so hard for so many people? I think it’s because people make it too hard. First of all, the putter Tee Time face stays square to the “putter path” instead of with Coach the “target line”. There is a mistaken believe in Betsy golf that the putter moves straight back and straight Larey through during the stroke. The perfect putting path travels back and through on a natural arc. In order for this to happen, your hands need to work as a single unit during the stroke. For this reason, I recommend a different grip with the putter. The grip in the full swing is designed to achieve the rotation of the clubface through impact while the putting grip is designed to “quiet” the hands during the stroke. The two most common grips are the reverse overlap and left-hand low. The other common characteristics of good putters are the head stays very steady and the hands are quiet during the stroke (the swing is a pendulum stroke made with the shoulders), while the rest of the body stays still. In addition, grip pressure should be on the lighter side and the stroke should be approximately the same length back and

A friend in need: Chippewa kids sock it to cri-du-chat
SUBMITTED
The Academy for Science and Agriculture baseball team and Cooper in their striped socks. BY MARK AGUIRRE CONTRIBUTING WRITER
This past Thursday, May 5, was a day to kick up your heels, and put your best foot forward. To spread the word and raise awareness for cri-du-chat, and show support for a Chippewa Middle School classmate that suffers from this rare syndrome. A kid who wants nothing more than to interact, and just be their friend. Heck, the local television folks were even making an appearance at the Shoreview school. Cooper Juliar is a lot like most seventh-grade boys. He loves to hunt with his older brother Noah. He loves his mom,
dad, sisters, cars, quad runners, motorcycles, taking care of dogs, and fixing snacks for himself. But Cooper Juliar differs from all of his classmates in the fact that he is challenged by cri-duchat. Just 50-60 children are born with it yearly in the United States. Cri-du-chat (cat's cry) syndrome, also known as 5p- (5p minus) syndrome, is a chromosomal condition that results when a piece of chromosome 5p is missing. Infants with this condition often have a highpitched cry that sounds like that of a cat. The disorder is characterized by intellectual disability and delayed development, low birth weight, and weak

muscle tone (hypotonia) in infancy. Affected individuals also have distinctive facial features, including widely set eyes (hypertelorism), low-set ears, a small jaw, and a rounded face. Some children with cri-du-chat syndrome are born with a heart defect. Cooper has already stomped on the odds. Mom Julia has campaigned and went through much litigation to assure the rights of her son to get an education with the general student population. "Cooper has learned so much since he's been out of special education," she said. "He loves it and the kids at Chippewa have been amazing." The wearing of striped socks (the crazier and gaudier the better) on National cri-du-chet Awareness Day is the highlight of the event. Cooper's brother Noah
and his Vadnais Heights Academy for Science and Agriculture baseball teammates donned the striped hose for their game that day (wearing one sock high and one low designates the missing fifth chromosome). It also looks cool. Striped socks was THE fashion statement at good old Chippewa Middle School. Enter Charlie Aasen. Every kid needs a buddy. A real friend. A pal that's got your back and accepts you along with all your challenges. Cooper Julia has a real friend in Charlie Aasen, and both are the better for it. "Last year I asked Charlie if he wanted to help with handing out the socks," Lisa Juliar said. "When he ran out of socks I found out he went out and bought more with his own money. This year I think he bought every

striped sock at every Dollar Store in the metro and handed them out." Lisa Juliar added that Aasen also got the word out in the school newspaper, and on the daily announcements. "Charlie's mom told me he used to go on and on about his friend Cooper, and never mentioned that he had special needs or was a special education kid." Lisa said. The TV folks arrived and everyone sprang to life. Lisa Juliar said that Cooper wanted to say "I like to be included" on
TV, and can clearly say it, but the TV guys were nervous to have him do it live for the camera. He programmed it on his iPad instead." Cooper seemed to relish all the attention. "I rarely see a smile as genuine as the one on his face that day," said Lisa Juliar. Inclusion really matters! In my world learning empathy, compassion and inclusion are more important than academics....always. It was a great day. I cried. It was almost too much."

Zephs win two of three The Mahtomedi baseball team won two of three Metro East Conference games this past week, beating Henry Sibley and Tartan, before falling to St. Thomas Academy. The Zephyrs scored in just three innings in a 14-6 rout of Sibley. They pushed home five runs in the second inning, three in the fifth inning, and six in the sixth frame against the visiting Warriors. Zephyr starter Grant Taivel earned the win. The sophomore improved to 3-1 for the season. Kyle Hinseth was the ringleader of the offense with a pair of doubles, a run scored, and five big RBI. Mahtomedi also beat Tartan 10-1, and lost 4-1 at the hands of St. Thomas during the week. Hill-Murray (8-2) leads the Zephs (8-3) by one-half game in the MEC entering play this week. The teams meet on Wednesday night at 6 p.m. at CHS Field in downtown St. Paul. Mahtomedi has a non-conference matchup with Chisago Lakes on Friday. Mark Aguirre

Memorial event helps trapshooting teams Over 160 people participated in the Thomas Gamboni Memorial Shoot at the Bald Eagle Sportsmen's Association range in Hugo to raise money for local high school trapshooting teams. The event April 30 raised about $4000, according to Keith Steadland, head coach for the White Bear Lake Area High School team. This was the fifth annual shoot in memory of Gamboni, a White Bear Lake electrician who died accidentally while wiring a Centerville bank sign in 2011. A friend of Gamboni, Gary Myskevitz, who manages the Wolf Den gun shop in Hugo, said
Tom was interested in promoting shooting sports for youth and donated his shotguns to the White Bear team. Steadland, who teaches physical science at North Campus, said the sport has grown tremendously since it started in 2009. "There are now over 10,000 high school athletes participating in trapshooting this spring," he pointed out. "The state tournament in Alexandria in June is scheduled for eight days and is billed as the largest shooting tournament in the world." Debra Neutkens

Percussionist shines in new opera based on Stephen King novel BY JACKIE BUSSJAEGER STAFF WRITER
STILLWATER — “All work and no play” is no problem for Kory Andry in the Minnesota Opera's latest production—he'll be playing throughout the whole performance of “The Shining” as the orchestra timpanist. The Minnesota Opera debuted the fi rst-ever operatic adaptation of the classic Stephen King novel, written by Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Paul Moravec, on May 7. The novel is a classic, and is known well for the Stanley Kubrick fi lm adaptation featuring a bone-chilling performance by Jack Nicholson. The story follows the life of Jack Torrance, a struggling writer, who accepts a job as a winter caretaker at the remote Overlook Hotel in the Rocky Mountains. He moves into the hotel with his wife and son, where the isolation—and a restless spirit or two—begin to drive him insane. The Minnesota Opera performance sold out weeks in advance. Andry, a Stillwater resident, has the distinction of being the orchestra's only timpanist. The timpani is a large set of drums, often wrapped over a copper drum bowl, and played with a mallet. “The timpani, rather than a regular drum, can be used very melodically, and for just emphasis of big moments,” Andry said. “It's kind of a neat passage in this opera where it's just myself and the bassist and I'm just doing this dramatic pedaling. You have pedals and can change the pitches, and it's this very chromatic, melodic line. I enjoy the fact that I can get some really nice melodic lines out of these drums as well as this percussiveness.” He has lived in Stillwater for more than 10 years, where he teaches percussion in a private studio, often to band and orchestra students from the area. “I'm originally from Louisiana, the New Orleans area, and [Stillwater] has a little bit of that river city feel to it,” Andry said. “It's a cute town; it has its own feel.” He also spends a few days a week working with percussion students at Mahtomedi High School. Originally from Louisiana, where he studied percussion performance at Louisiana State University, he moved to Minnesota in 1993. He started performing with the Minnesota Opera orchestra as a substitute percussionist in 1996, and took over the position when the regular timpanist retired. He has also worked as a freelance timpanist, playing for numerous Broadway shows. Since “The Shining” is a brand-new composition, it gives the performers the unique opportunity to work with the composer and give feedback about different aspects of the music. There have even been some changes made during the rehearsal process to improve the music from a percussion

standpoint, Andry said. “Percussionists have been suggesting a lot of things, and Paul, the composer, has been really open to changing things,” he said. The score allows Andry to apply some creative techniques to creating the tense musical atmosphere that befits a horror story such as “The Shining.” “There's a scene in the beginning of the second act where Jack is working with the boiler, so I'm actually working to make a boiler sound working on the side of the bowls,” Andry said. “If I play lightly on the side of the timpani bowls, it sounds like a boiler actually popping.” The job is a unique one, since the orchestra has only one timpani part. “I'm creating all the sounds; it's not like I'm in violin section with 20 other violinists,” Andry said. “Actually, the sounds I am creating are used for setting the mood or the tone. There's a couple times when I'm actually playing with an inverted cymbal on a timpani, which creates this kind of cool effect; a suspenseful sort of background sound.” To learn more about Kory Andry and his studio, visit www.drumlessonsinstillwater.com/home-studio-lessons.

Senate Bonding Bill fails, bad news for northeast metro ST. PAUL — After a momentous unveiling, the $1.5 billion Senate Bonding Bill failed to pass on the Senate floor by just one vote last week. The Minnesota Constitution requires a super-majority vote for passage of a bonding bill. In the Senate, that's 41 votes. The measure received 40 votes and did not pass. The no vote is a significant disappointment to colleges and universities, critical transportation projects that have the potential to save lives, and clean water and wastewater infrastructure projects, said Sen. Chuck Wiger in a May 6 news release. The bill, which addressed just a quarter of the need statewide, was estimated to create around 40,000 jobs and spur economic development in small towns and cities across Minnesota. The bill included several projects for White Bear Lake and the surrounding area – all of those projects are now in jeopardy. "One of the most important issues in our area, the water levels of White Bear Lake, had received funding for a widespread study. The study is tasked with analyzing our region’s surface water and ground water systems to evaluate the long-term water supply and sustainability within the north and east metro," Wiger said. "The Bonding Bill had invested $1.78 million to produce actionable findings. The results of this study will have a positive impact on how we can continue to maintain our natural resources and find solutions to make us more environmentally
conscious. "The Bonding Bill had also appropriated funds to invest in the education of our youth by providing funds to Century College," Wiger added. "Century College had received $5.5 million from the Bonding Bill to renovate and add new space to create an Engineering and Applied Technology Center that will offer flexible classroom and lab space for STEM programming. Century College provides students the opportunity to receive technical training in fields that are in high demand in the workforce. "Century College is a huge asset to the east metro and I’m very supportive of their drive to innovate and offer the best lab and instructional space for their students. This project would help attract more students and would provide some of the most advanced training space to give students an edge once they graduate. The new space would also help promote retention and completion by giving bachelor degree students more access to digital fabrication labs and other applied learning opportunities. Because of what was at stake, I am so disappointed that the Bonding Bill failed. Century College is just one example of the good that bonding dollars provide to local communities." Wiger said closing the achievement gap in Minnesota continues to be a focus for the Senate; the Bonding Bill had taken encouraging steps to address this issue through its funding of the White Bear Lake Community Achievement Center. An innovative and holistic
approach to education, the advocates behind the vision for the White Bear Lake Community Achievement Center aimed to target all aspects of education to fully support families. The Bonding Bill had awarded this project $1 million to launch the planning process. "The Center is working with stakeholders across different industries to approach education in an inclusive manner. Among the different parties involved include, Ramsey County Human Services, Health Partners, Northeast Youth Family Services, and White Bear Area Emergency Food shelf. I believe the Community Achievement Center will lead the state to pursue similar institutions," continued the senator. "In its finished product, the center would include an early childhood center to provide support to families before sending their children off to kindergarten," Wiger said. "I will continue to advocate for this project into the future, if it does not get funding this year – we will pursue it next year." Transportation projects make up the greatest percentage of the Senate’s Bonding Bill, coming in at just under $400 million. Another quarter of the bill is dedicated to higher education, while the rest is divided among water infrastructure, parks and trails, public safety, housing and human services and the arts. The bill was estimated to create around 40,000 jobs in the short term, and would help drive economic development and enhance Minnesota’s infrastructure well into

the state’s future. "I want to thank Sen. LeRoy Stumpf (DFL-Plummer), chair of the Senate Capital Investment Committee for putting together a bill that addressed needs across the state," Wiger said. "Sen. Stumpf and the entire committee visited these projects back in December and I want to thank them for taking the time to visit and learn about the needs in our community. While the House of Representatives still has not come out with its Bonding Bill, I remain hopeful that we can still reach an agreement on bonding prior to adjournment on May 23.” Here are a few highlights from the Senate’s 2016 Bonding Bill:
• Transportation: $390 million Examples: Local Road Improvement Fund: $70 million, Local Bridge Replacement Program: $80 million • Education: $362 million Examples: University of Minnesota HEAPR: $61.5 million, MnSCU HEAPR: $70 million • Water Infrastructure: $282 million Examples: Flood Hazard Mitigation grant assistance: $20 million, Wastewater Infrastructure Fund: $80 million, Point Source Implementation Grants: $62 million. • Public Safety: $202 million Examples: Department of Corrections asset preservation: $20
million, MN Security Hospital Phase 2: $70.2 million. • Parks and Recreation: $181 million Examples: Department of Natural Resources asset preservation: $33 million, Metropolitan Regional Parks: $10 million. • Housing: $90 million Examples: Minnesota Housing Finance Agency, Housing Infrastructure Bonds: $70 million, Public Housing Rehabilitation: $20 million. • Human Services: $92 million Examples: Red Lake Nation human services building: $14 million, St. Paul Dorothy Day Revision Phase 2: $12 million.

I-35E will close overnight at Highway 96 VADNAIS HEIGHTS – Night-time motorists will encounter overnight lane closures on both directions of I-35E at Hwy 96 in the northeast Twin Cities Metro area on Thursday, May 12. Beginning at 10 p.m. northbound I-35E at Hwy 96 in Vadnais Heights will be reduced to a single lane with motorists being detoured up and down the Hwy 96 ramps. Also at 10 p.m. motorists on southbound I-35E will encounter intermittent road closures lasting 15 minutes as crews set each bridge beam. Hwy 96 to southbound I-35E will remain open. However, motorists should expect delays from the longer than usual signal period which is needed to complete the work. Crews expect to complete this work by 5 a.m. Friday, May 13. MnDOT urges motorists to always be attentive, drive with caution and slow down in work zones. The lane closures are part of the two-year I-35E Goose Lake Road and Hwy 96 road resurfacing project. In addition to resurfacing, the work includes widening the road, re-decking and widening the Highway 96 bridge, replacing the I-35E bridges over Goose Lake Road, updating drainage, repairing guardrail and constructing a trail. The work is expected to be complete by December. For more information visit the project website: mndot.gov/metro/projects/i35vadnaisheights/.
