District 624 students improve math and science scores BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE – District 624 students scored above state averages in math, science and reading on state standardized tests this spring. Students also surpassed 2015 scores for the district in math and science. Minnesota requires students to take the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCAs) annually. Math tests are taken by third- through eighth-graders and by 11th-graders. Reading tests are also taken by thirdthrough eighth-graders and by 10th

graders. Science tests are taken by fifth- and eighth-graders and once in high school, typically by 10th-graders. Math test scores for all grades in White Bear Lake Area Schools jumped from 65 percent proficiency in 2015 to 66 percent proficiency in 2016. Math proficiency scores for White Bear Lake were highest in the last five years in 2012, at 71 percent. The state average proficiency in 2016 for math was 59 percent, a decrease from 60 in 2015. White Bear Lake was about seven SEE MCA ISD 624, PAGE 8A

White Bear Lake City Councilman Dan Jones and his wife Sallie received a phone call the night of July 30 no parents wants. Their daughter Kayla had been hit by a pickup truck crossing a busy street in Duluth and suffered a traumatic brain injury. It was 9:55 p.m. when they got the news. “We were out the door by 10 p.m.,” Jones said. Kayla, 19, was crossing a street with a girlfriend when she was struck. Her friend was walking ahead of her and doesn’t know what happened; she just heard the sound and saw Kayla land in the street. No alcohol was involved in the accident, Jones noted. He has chosen not to look at the police report but is relieved alcohol played no role. “Once I found that out, I was OK. I would have been going down that angry road; none of that was wasted energy.” Her injuries are bad. There is kidney and spleen damage and neck fractures. Two arteries in her neck were damaged. All those would be significant on their own, her dad said, but neurosurgeons are focused on her brain. “That is the biggest injury. The best news (Aug. 2) was when the doctor said the injuries are not affecting her breathing or important functions. They are choosing to let her body deal with those.” Surgeons removed a 4x7 inch piece of skull to SEE ACCIDENT, PAGE 9A

Downtown caboose getting a little TLC

PAUL DOLS | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

Part-time public works employee Roger Stauff paints trim on the last of four windows he replaced in the caboose. BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

The city's century-old caboose is getting some much-needed repairs. Part-time public works employee Roger Stauff, the same guy who restored the antique baggage cart outside the depot, was tasked with replacing four windows in the 1914 car, once owned by Northern Pacific Railroad. Being a perfectionist, the carpentry work was laborious, "since nothing is square," Stauff said. He still needs to fi nish interior trim and then the retired machinist will be done. "At 74, I'm about out of gas," said the longtime White Bear Lake resident. Public Works Director Mark Burch called Stauff "a meticulous craftsman" but the handyman will have none of it. "My theory for life: I don't need a

The late owner of the caboose, Carroll Mattlin, installed the booth and made other changes to the interior so it is not authentic. The stove at right and bathroom are still original.

pat on the back; I let my work do the talking," he said. Other work remains to be done on the caboose. Wooden platforms on both ends are rotted and need to be replaced and the roof was only temporarily patched after Stauff discovered a serious leak. Newer residents may not know that the caboose was once part of an extensive railroad collection owned by Carroll Mattlin. He owned an appliance business near the depot before the store was torn down in the '90s for the Mainstreet Crossing strip mall. The caboose was kept nearby not far from Cup And Cone. "Mattlin is the main reason the depot still stands today," said Sara Hanson, executive director of the White Bear Area Historical Society. "He had an amazing railroad collection that included the caboose and a dining car he later donated to the transportation museum in Duluth. We're talking big stuff in this collection; not just matchbooks and hats. I think he even had a sleeper car at one point that he used for excursions around the country." After Mattlin died in 1993, it is Hanson's understanding that the caboose changed hands several times as his collection was dispersed. There was a movement to save the caboose as development

happened around Cup And Cone to keep it in the community. The story she was told was that the city agreed to purchase the caboose using a $10,000 donation by North Star Bank. "We're glad they saved it," Hanson said. "Northern Pacific has a lot of history here. White Bear Lake is truly a railroad town. Trains were the catalyst for the resorts and everything else. A lot of railroad employees lived here." Thanks to the Rotary Club, the exterior of the caboose, painted and furnished to appear 1940s era, was "beautifully" restored in 2006. Hanson is amazed that only a decade later, the car is already in need of repairs. The historical society has been talking with the chamber of commerce and the city to figure out how to keep the caboose from deteriorating, Hanson said. "It's a huge undertaking to rebuild the caboose but the time is right. It might make sense to erect some type of shelter to protect it from weather." The caboose has been open for public tours in the past, but for now, it is closed for safety reasons. Passenger train service to White Bear Lake was discontinued Jan. 5, 1967.

Lake enjoyment limited HITE BEAR LAKE once again has an excursion boat called The Admiral thanks to Admiral D’s and Brian McGoldrick. This will allow more people to enjoy White Bear Lake. There are hors d’oeuvres on board. From the top deck you will have a unique view of the lake during the two hour cruise. The last time an excursion boat was operating on White Bear Lake was 1910. THE BEUTIFICATION OF Highway 61 through White Bear Lake is very attractive, from the stone columns to the lighting and the plantings in the median. However, from my observation the stone columns with their flat top look like they are not completely finished. I About the called Anne Kane, Community Development Director, and found that I was Town not alone. I think white bears could Gene Johnson be placed in different positions on top of those columns. One of the columns has with h a planter l i flowers blooming, but they become difficult to keep watered, especially with the traffic on Highway 61. It would be dangerous and disruptive. Maybe there are other types of art pieces that could be placed on them that would be representative of our heritage and legacy. Voice your ideas. PUBLISHING TODAY HAS increased challenges, especially from the Internet, ranging from Craig’s List to websites of every imaginable kind. I read a column by Shane Goodman, president of a free newspaper group, who makes several points about the digital fads and now the statistics are beginning to once again work in favor of print. Thirty-six percent of all web traffic is fake according to Business Inside (March 24, 2014). Could you imagine if the Press Publications distribution was 36 percent fake? One in four Facebook users lie on their profiles. This is from CNN (May 4, 2012). Twenty-five percent of Facebook users admitted that they lied, but the number may be higher. One-third of all Internet users use some form of ad blocking software according to the Wall Street Journal (August 10, 2015). Digital advertising spending is tapering off. Most of the growth dollars came from TV and are now going back to TV, but print has been hurt through these digital experiments, mostly the daily newspapers. Of course, there is a place for digital advertising, but it should be to complement the massive readership that is in print. The key is to remain ethical and honest in all of our business activities and information. People have predicted that print has been going out of business for a couple hundred years. It is still well and alive as proven by the fact that you are reading this column today. Print has just had to learn how to incorporate the Internet through its websites and digital offerings. As a weekly paper complemented by our website, we can act like a daily paper. Breaking news and feature stories are posted immediately. Thanks for hanging around. We will be hanging around for a long time, too. DURING THE TIME White Bear Lake was at its lowest water point, a lot of sucker trees and other vegetation began to grow in those shallow areas. Now with the water rising, some of that vegetation and trees will die and leave a mess. It seems to me that the water conservation district and others who are seeking to restore the lake should have had these trees and brush removed when the water was low. Now it will be more difficult. On some shorelines of the lake it has grown so much you can’t even see the lake from the road you are traveling on. During this low water period it would also have been easier to dredge some of the bays that have filled with decaying vegetation to allow new plant life to form. Not everyone will agree with this approach, but a lot of things in nature can be and are managed for beauty and practical uses. Thankfully we are in a cycle of more rainfall. Maybe I should be pointing fingers at the DNR.

True movers and shakers

T

he League of Women Voters (LWV) is a prime example of being a “mover and shaker” in the United States. The League was founded six months before the 19th Amendment was ratified in 1920 allowing all women citizens the right to vote. Carrie Chapman Catt, born and raised in Iowa, was the President of the National American Women Suffrage Association when she proposed the formation of a League of Women Voters. She and other suffragettes saw the need for women to become informed on public policy issues and be active participants in a democracy. The LWV has always been a political organization, but, the League is non-partisan. Members are as free as others to join and vote for the political party of their choice. The LWV has never supported candidates or political parties. Studying a diverse range of public policy issues has been and is today a major part of what members of the League do. After studying an issue and coming to consensus on it, whether it’s a national or state or local public policy issue, the League promotes forums and public discussion of reforms and, if needed, change in our laws. To list the issues the LWV has studied and successfully worked on for almost a century, would be too long. So, I’ll mention only a few of the national issues the

Movers and Shakers Ruth Jones

The League of Women Voters (LWV) is a prime example of being a “mover and shaker” in the United States. League studied and supported. Such issues as the establishment of the United Nations, the enactment of Social Security, civil rights, Voting Rights Act of 1982, gun control, universal health care, the Clean Air Act of 1990. There is a long list of Minnesota issues and local issues the White Bear Lake Area LWV and other local leagues have also studied and acted upon. This past year, 2015-2016, the White Bear Lake Area LWV studied local compliance to MN’s Open Meeting Law. Members attended 27 city council and four town boards in the northeast metro area. It was found that the municipalities meet legal requirements and many go above and beyond to make cities accessible to citizens. The White Bear Lake Area’s LWV 2016-2017 year’s program will include a catch-up on the recent national LWV study on

Money in Politics, a program on a single primary system, evaluating the constitutional amendments and a speaker from the Secretary of State’s office on the Equal Rights Amendment, affordable housing and an update on the Upper Mississippi River study. The LWVUS President from 1986-1990 said, “Over the years, the League has also been a training ground for women who want to serve in public office. The League’s ability to prepare women for public life may be its fi nest legacy to the nation.” As we now have the fi rst woman to be nominated by a major party for President, perhaps you know of at least one woman who holds public office and credits the LWV for giving her knowledge and inspiration to run for that position. The passing of the 19th amendment giving women the right to vote and the formation of the League of Women Voters so that women would be aided in becoming informed about public policy issues was an historic event. What does the future hold for us? Ruth Jones is membership chair of the League of Women Voters White Bear Lake Area.

Night to Unite

E

very summer I go out with the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Department to participate in “Night to Unite” (“National Night Out”). It’s a great time to gain perspective on how our community is doing, and to learn how well our law enforcement officers are received by those they serve. As a Ramsey County Commissioner, it is my favorite event of the year. At the beginning of the night, Sheriff Deputies, County Attorneys, along with volunteers from Target and Land O’ Lakes, met at the Sheriff’s station to review the schedule for that evening. By the time we arrived at our fi rst party in Vadnais Heights, there were large groups of children playing in yards while their parents and neighbors conversed nearby. What was different about this night was an even more than usual appreciation for the deputies.

The kids asked questions about sirens and lights, while the adults talked to the deputy about safety and why they made the choice to live here. The people I met at each neighborhood were warm and receptive, embodying the tradition of the event. Meeting with community members is not only the best part Movers and of “Night to Unite,” it’s also the thing I enShakers joy most about my job.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Focus on entire water ecosystem White Bear Lake: What a great resource to our community. It is so good to see it rebounding in the last few years. I hope it continues. Yet to focus just on the lake and not the overall water ecosystem is selfish. It has been hard to listen to and read about all the short sighted solutions to the low water levels. Proposing to spend millions of dollars to divert water from the Mississippi like it is just a drop in the bucket. Aside from the cost, are people really so short sighted as to believe that diverting millions of gallons of water has no effect on the health of the waterway? Hurrah for organizations like Race 2 Reduce, H2O for Life and others for bringing attention to this precious resource (water that is). A change in our habits would change our water usage dramatically. We could cut water usage by about 50 percent if we just stopped watering our lawns. Green lawns are beautiful, but cost us greatly, but not in terms of the cost of water. Water is priced like it has no value. We pump pristine water from deep aquifers and dump it on to chemically treated lawns that have no life sustaining value. I watch our cities

With recent events involving law enforcement officials from around the country, we need community gatherings like “Night to Unite” more than ever. Republican or Democrat; law enforcement officer or citizen; we need to use nights like these as a springboard to come together as a community. These are our family members, friends, neighbors, and leaders of Ramsey County. I’ve lived in Ramsey County for over

40 years and have seen our neighborhoods and schools flourish under the leadership of my predecessors. We must continue to grow as a community and continue the great work of the past. It truly is an honor to have served you for the past four years, and I thoroughly look forward to serving you for the next four years. Have a great rest of the summer. Blake Huffman is a Ramsey County Commissioner, representing District 1.

OBITUARY NOTICE installing irrigation on street medians. I see people who live on the lake watering at 3 p.m. on a 90 degree day when rain is forecast. People in our area have irrigated lawns an acre or more. Area businesses water in the middle of a rainstorm. If we charged a higher price for water used for irrigation, maybe 10 fold, we would have an impact on the amount of water used that affects our lake. This could be done with irrigation meters or summer over winter usage difference. The extra revenue could be used to develop gray water systems or incentives to reduce usage. It is bigger than just our lake. Someday we will no longer be able to drink clean, pure water from deep down. Don’t worry though, we have the technology to purify waste water to drinking standards.

Jan Arford Dr. Jan Arford, PsyD, 65, of White Bear Lake, passed away on Sunday, July 24, 2016 encircled by loving family and friends. Jan was born October 22, 1950 in Okmulgee, Oklahoma to parents James and Gwendolyn (Blackwell) Arford. She was raised in Okmulgee and attended Okmulgee High School. Jan studied art at the University of Wisconsin at Barron County before moving on to the University of Wisconsin at River Falls where her studies included Speech Communication and Theatre. Jan’s love of theatre, ballroom dancing, singing and painting allowed her to connect with others in special ways. Her love of theatre was evident in many community theatres within the greater Twin Cities Metro Area, but none more than Lakeshore Players. Jan’s interest and involvement at Lakeshore was chief among the reasons she and her husband settled in the White Bear Area in 1998. Jan’s involvement at Lakeshore Players included many acting roles, as a member of the selection committee for, and as a director of, numerous short plays for their Ten Minute Play Festivals. She was also on the Board of Directors and served as a producer for various shows as well. Jan talked very fondly of plays in which she was able to work with and provide assistance to young actors, including Lakeshore’s productions of Cheaper by the Dozen, Music Man and Hanging of the Greens. In addition to her work at Lakeshore, Jan’s talents were most recently on display at Theater in the

Round in Minneapolis and at the Phipps Theater in Hudson, Wisconsin. Her interest in helping others propelled her to further studies at the University of St. Thomas from which she achieved her doctoral degree in psychology. Her knowledge, skills, efforts and talents as a mental health professional gave Jan her biggest sense of accomplishment. She helped many people during her years as a psychologist at Hazelden Foundation in Center City and most recently, during her time at CenterLife Counseling in Centerville. Jan was preceded in death by her parents and brother, Cris Arford. She is survived by her husband Jason Vavra; her “sisters” Debra (Jeff) Vavra, Jenni (Tony) Peterson, Jackie Vavra, Julie (Jesse) Humenik; cousins; and many nieces and nephews. No services were held. A private celebration of Jan’s life will be held for family and friends in mid-September. In lieu of flowers or memorial donations, please honor Jan’s life by becoming the best person you can be and by helping others who are in need.

Gebel el-Silsila is situated along the Nile River in Egypt and was used as a major quarry from ca. 1500 BCE all the way to around 200 CE. Many of the most famous and powerful pharaohs ordered the construction of ancient Egypt’s most well-known temples, such as Luxor and Karnak, from the sandstone harvested at Silsila. Nillson and Ward have spent years heading the first ever-comprehensive archaeological survey of the site. Their team’s latest discovery is pinpointing the location of a previously lost 3,400-yearold, 18th dynasty necropolis.

MCA ISD 624: Students score above state averages FROM PAGE 1A

percentage points higher than the state average in math this year. Reading test scores for White Bear Lake stayed the exact same from 2015 to 2016 at 65 percent. The state average for proficiency in 2016 for reading was 60, an increase from 59 percent in 2015. New reading standards were implemented in 2013. White Bear Lake was about five percentage points higher than the state average in reading this year. Science test scores for White Bear Lake jumped from 60 percent proficiency in 2015 to 62 percent proficiency in 2016. The state average proficiency in 2016 for science was 55 percent, an increase from 53 percent in 2015. New science standards were implemented in 2012. White Bear Lake was about eight percentage points higher than the state average in science this year.

Math and science success “The good news for us is we are up almost two points in math and up almost two points in science,” said Superintendent Michael Lovett. “At a time when the state is struggling, our school is continuing to go up.” That almost 2 percent is about 80 students of the 4,000 tested. “That is 80 different success stories,” Lovett said. When asked why he thought math and science scores went up, Lovett said with a smile, “I think it is the water,” referring to all the talk and education about water use in the area lately. Director of Communications Marissa Vette explained: “The classrooms are doing H20 for Life, and they are measuring, and they are doing science experiments.” Lovett also cited other

Ramping up reading

College and kindergarten

White Bear Lake Area Schools plans to improve literacy education. In the spring of 2016 the White Bear Lake Area School Board approved a reallocation of current resources to provide elementary teachers with literacy coaches beginning this fall. Five coaches will provide literacy leadership across the district. “They will work alongside classroom teachers on how to implement strategies,” said Learning and Development Coordinator Ann Malwitz. Elementary reading is being targeted because it is so essential to a student’s progress. “Third grade literacy is so critical,” Assistant Superintendent Sara Paul said. And this year elementary students will even have their reading level determined before

Lovett said the district has a “growth mindset as opposed to a fix mindset.” Assessment Coordinator Brian Morris said, “We talk about the growth they made regardless of whether or not they made it over that bar of proficiency.” What would Lovett want to say to a student who didn’t pass the test to encourage them? “We want students to see these scores as a measure of their progress, not an indication of their worth.” Lovett is more concerned about a student learning what “they love to do” than about their test scores. The district has a goal to give as many students as possible access to college level courses and is developing career pathways instruction in construction, manufacturing, IT and healthcare. The district has developed

Three's the limit when it comes to canines WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP — The Hobby Kennel license has been renamed the Special Three Dog license by the township in hopes the designation won’t be open to interpretation. “The town has spent a lot of time on this ordinance amendment,” noted Clerk Bill Short. “People were thinking a hobby kennel license meant a breeding operation or outside kennel. This is less confusing.” The new three-dog license will expire four years after issuance. It may be reissued at that time without a public hearing if there have been no complaints. If there are complaints, there will be a public hearing before the special license is renewed. To obtain the three-dog license, an applicant must make written application to the Town Board and include a current rabies certificate and list of dog tags for each dog in the dwelling and/or kennel, as well as the species and number of dogs over the age of three months to be kept on the premises. Once the board receives an application, a public hearing will be scheduled. The township’s animal control officer will also make a site visit. Four or more dogs are not allowed in the township. The Town Board approved the change at its Aug. 3 meeting. Debra Neutkens

In 2015-16, two-thirds of White Bear Lake Area High School seniors were enrolled in at least one college-level course. “Do we want them (test scores) to keep going up? Absolutely … But it is also where they end up by the end of high school,” Lovett said. “We take everybody where they are. In kindergarten if they don’t know

their letters yet, we take them. If they are reading chapter books we take them. … We will be there for all of them.” MCA results were released by the Minnesota Department of Education at the end of July and can be found on the Minnesota Report Card at http://rc.education.state.mn.us.

Efficient flush = huge water savings Results of a study by Race2Reduce and H2O for Life, funded by the White Bear Lake Conservation District, were released recently on the savings found by updating toilet technology. Homes in White Bear Lake were surveyed on the gallons per flush (GPF) of their toilets, and a small study was conducted to evaluate the impact of converting high GPF toilets to dual-flush toilets. Based on the data, an estimated 64 million gallons of water could be saved annually in White Bear Lake if all households converted to dual-flush toilets. The Department of Natural Resources asked 13 communities in the northeast metro to cut water usage by 17 percent as part of the lake lawsuit settlement with the White Bear Lake Restoration Association. Our study shows that this could be accomplished by nothing more than upgrading homes in the targeted communities to dual-flush technology. The subject homes realized an average of 26.5 percent less water used than the same period in the prior year (See chart). City officials determined that a home of average water use with a pre-1992 toilet would save $126 per year (using 2017 rates) in water and sewer charges by installing a dual-flush toilet. The study compared water use in homes with toilets that flushed more than 1.6 gallons per flush (pre 1992 standards) for the period January,

Water savings using dual-flush toilets.

February and March of 2015 with the same period for 2016 after installing dual-flush toilet inserts into subject homes. dual-flush toilets have two volumes for flushing, the lesser flush for removing liquid waste. The study also included a community water use survey to understand the makeup of toilets in White Bear Lake. Findings show that approximately 63 percent of toilets in the city are the 1992 standard 1.6 GPF, 27 percent are made up of 3.5 GPF or higher volume toilets. Upgrading all homes in the city to dual-flush toilets would reduce pumping from the aquifer underlying the lake by 64 million gallons per year. There would be a one-time investment in upgrading toilet technology, but the water savings would then continue year after year with no associated cost.

The city of White Bear Lake currently has rebate money (up to $200) available for upgrading toilets in city homes. Contact City Hall for information. No matter what other measures are taken to deal with the water level of White Bear Lake and the underlying aquifer, reducing the amount we use always makes sense, including reducing the amount of water that would need to be purchased annually if a lake augmentation system were implemented. Thanks to the White Bear Lake Conservation District, Aquarius Plumbing, and the White Bear High School South Campus Environmental Studies Class for making this study possible.

in math this year. Reading test scores for Mahtomedi dropped from 83 percent in 2015 to 79 percent in 2016. The state average for proficiency in 2016 for reading was 60, an increase from 59 percent in 2015. New reading standards were implemented in 2013. Mahtomedi was about 19 percentage points higher than the state average in reading this year. Science test scores for Mahtomedi dropped from from 85 percent proficiency in 2015 to 82 percent proficiency in 2016. The state average proficiency in 2016 for science was 55 percent, an increase from 53 percent in 2015. New science standards were implemented in 2012. Mahtomedi was about 27 percentage points higher than the state average in science this year.

Celebrating science Mahtomedi has had some of the highest scores in the state the last several years. In 2013 it had the highest math and science scores in the metro, and in 2014 and 2015 it had the highest scores in the metro in all three areas. This year it had the highest science score, but Delano passed it in math at 83.6, just 0.5 percentage points higher, according to Superintendent Mark Larson. Mahtomedi came in fourth in reading; West Tonka had the highest score at 82, three percentage points higher than Mahtomedi. Larson is pleased with student scores even if they aren't all the top this year. “We are pleased with how well our students did,” said Larson. “It is and indication of the hard work our teachers are doing.”

Mahtomedi was about 24 percentage points higher than the state average in math this year.

Mahtomedi was about 19 percentage points higher than the state average in reading this year.

Why does Mahtomedi have such high scores? “Well, most people think it is because of the superintendent,” said Larson. “That is not why.” Larson cited “outstanding teachers … support of the community and family structure that values education … and good kids who take education seriously and who want to succeed” as reasons for its consistently high test scores. Larson said district data instruction teams will be analyzing the data to determine why student scores dropped some this year. “We want to dig deep to see where we are strong and where there are gaps,” said Larson. “We are close to 80 percent (proficiency overall). That means we still have one out of five kids who is not at grade level. We still have our work cut out for us … we want to have all students where they want to be. We are not throwing any parades, but there is a reason to celebrate.” What would Larson want to say to a student who didn't pass

the test to encourage them? “We want to seek the reasons why and then fix that.”

Addressing reading Mahtomedi will be implementing new aspects to its elementary reading instruction this school year to address its reading scores. Director of Learning and Accountability Lynne Viker said after reviewing MCA data and other data, the district decided to bolster its literacy instruction. The district plans to use new materials which will focus on reading standards. The district will also focus on “balanced” literacy instruction, which means making sure reading is learned in different contexts – “whole group instruction, kids doing small group instruction, independent reading,” said Viker. Balanced literacy is taught using a framework which moves responsibility for learning to the student. “There is a gradual release of responsibility,” said Viker. “It moves from the teacher doing it, to we do it as

a classroom, and then students then work together, and then independently.” In the high school the district will work on equity education. Larson said the district plans “to be really focusing on a lot of equity work throughout the whole high school” this school year. “Our goal is to close the

achievement gap.” MCA results were released by the Minnesota Department of Education at the end of July and can be found on the Minnesota Report Card at http://rc.education.state.mn.us.

She was in surgery by 11:45 p.m. to relieve the pressure, Jones noted, then air lifted to Hennepin County Medical Center around 3:30 a.m. Their daughter is reacting to verbal commands but had not regained consciousness when the Press last spoke with her father. “No one is concerned about that,” Jones noted. “The best thing so far is there have been no setbacks.” The family is keeping vigil at her hospital bedside, although visiting hours are restricted. “Three neurosurgeons here said we were lucky the neurosurgeon at St. Luke’s in Duluth did a good job,” Jones said. “I give that hospital a lot of credit.” A post on Kayla’s Caring Bridge site by her dad said the brain monitor drilled into her head was “lovingly” called the Cup ‘n Cone because it looked like a white cup turned upside down. The monitor was removed Aug. 3 when Kayla stabilized. “All are small steps on a long road ahead,” Jones said. The councilman also noted how humbled he and Sallie feel at the outpouring of support. “It’s astonishing. “The night of the accident, 15 people from White Bear Lake drove to Duluth to be with us.

The White Th Whit Bear B Town T Board B d approved d the following at its Aug. 3 (rescheduled) regular meeting: • Change order for construction work by Utility Systems of America on the old Town Hall at Polar Lakes Park. The amount, $7,500, will pay for work needed to repair deteriorating floor joists and rebuilding the front wall sub support structure. The total project cost for building repairs is $174,800. • Option to opt out of temporary family health care dwellings law. A law passed by Gov. Mark Dayton May 12 creates a process for landowners to place a temporary residential dwelling on their property. It would serve as a health care dwelling for mentally or physically impaired family members. The law goes into effect Sept. 1 and automatically applies to municipalities that do not opt out or do not already allow temporary family health care dwellings as a permitted use under local ordinance. The dwelling can only be on property where a caregiver or relative resides. No public hearing is required under the new law and it would probably not go through the Planning Commission or Town Board for review and approval. The dwelling can be on the property for six months with an option for another six months. Modular and manufactured housing is allowed. Supervisor Ed Prudhon said the concept makes him uncomfortable. "It seems odd that someone could have their mother out in a trailer," he noted. Planner Tom Riedesel assured the board the town has other options such as mother-in-law apartments. • Receipt of 2017 community apportion-

mentt ffrom White Lake Whit Bear B L k ConserC vation District. The township will be assessed $19,000 or $1.73 per resident next year. This is a reduction from the year previous of $470. • Bow hunting request from Harry Kavaloski and Joe Mailer on township property south of Benson Airport. Riedesel provided an aerial map of deer sightings taken last January by Ramsey County surveyors. "It looks like all the deer have moved to Gem Lake," he said. The winter survey showed one deer in the wetland area next to the airport, when historically, there have been high numbers. Prudhon asked Kavaloski if he sees deer on the runway and he said yes, he's seen pilots abort a landing because of deer. The two hunters have been culling deer from the large wetland for years. Kavaloski disagreed with the survey numbers. He lives south of the airport and said there are not as many deer as there used to be, but there are more than one. "We don't pressure it hard," he said. Prudhon motioned to allow bow hunting this season based on the fact it improves runway safety. The board agreed. • On-sale liquor license for the VFW during Township Day Sept. 10 at Polar Lakes Park. • White Bear Soccer Club's 5K Color Run Aug. 20. The run starts at 10 a.m. at Polar Lakes Park. Runners will stick to township trails. No streets will be impacted. • Xcel Energy permit to provide gas service on Pine Hill Lane to all new homes. • Connexus Energy permit to provide electric service on Pine Hill Lane to all new homes. • Date change for Town Board meeting to Sept. 7 due to Labor Day holiday.

Young entrepreneur hooked on fishing BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

Since he was 5 years old, Brady Ballis has liked to fish. When he was 15, his parents, Tom and Mollie, gave him an inline spinner-making kit for Christmas and in Ballis' words, making his own lures "took off from there." Now 18, Ballis spends free evenings at home in White Bear modifying and painting lures and building custom rods for resale. Many of the lures are tied with shiny tinsel called flashabou, made by a Stillwater fishing company where he also happens to work. The product gives his lures the appearance of live bait in the water, Ballis said and he uses it on all his muskie lures. Speaking of muskies, Ballis likes to tell the story of the whopper he caught late last summer: "It was early September, my buddy Tyler and I were just going out for fun. It was going to be the last time we were going fishing on White Bear Lake. After 30 or 45 minutes of fishing I hooked the fish. At first I thought it was only a weed because it wasn't fighting at all. Then all of a sudden the weed started to move sideways. I was only using a spinning reel with 15-pound test monofilament. "It started fighting a little bit and we had still had no clue what it was. Then all of a sudden we saw the beast and it saw us and took off. It smoked my drag on the spinning reel and took off an easy 100 feet of line. I was in my little 14-foot alumna craft and this fish was so big it actually was dragging us across the lake. Tyler and I fought it for at least 20 minutes. I would reel it in and then it would swim back out and take all of the line out again. Finally we got it in and luckily Tyler was there to help net it because I wouldn't have caught the fish without him. Our net was way too small and only the head fit. So he got the head in the net and I had to grab the tail and flop it in the boat. It was 50 inches and just under 40 pounds." Last month, the budding entrepreneur rented a booth at Marketfest to peddle his lures and custom fishing rods. Sales were good, enough to cover his costs plus a little extra, Ballis said. His marketing efforts are supported by his mom, who is a graphic de-

signer and designed his logo; and his dad, who pitches the tackle to his firefighter buddies. Tom Ballis serves dual roles as a Stillwater firefighter and first assistant district chief at station No. 2 in White Bear Lake. "My parents help me make connections," Ballis said. "The guys at the Stillwater fire station are constantly asking for lures. One guy especially loves the spinner baits. He caught half a dozen pike with the biggest one 42 inches. It actually straightened the bait because he caught so many." Sales mostly are word of mouth at this point. He's not quite ready for online sales through a website but his goal is to "keep growing and show people what I make." Eventually the young fisherman hopes to manufacture his own tackle full time. Ballis' dream is to own a store selling his lures and custom rods with classes

for tying flies and building rods. If he's not making lures, Ballis is usually in a boat fishing. He graduated from White Bear Area High School in June and plans to attend Hamline University this fall to study business. He played Junior Gold hockey and was a member of the trapshooting team in high school. Does he have a favorite fish to catch? "I love catching them all," Ballis said. He usually fishes in White Bear Lake, which the avid fisherman said is on track to being one of the best muskie lakes in the state thanks to DNR stocking efforts. Lure prices range from $1.25 for hand-tied jigs to $5 spinner baits. Custom rods range from $100 to $600 depending on material and desired sensitivity. For now, sales are not making him rich. Any profits are usually used to buy another mold to make another lure. "As long as I can sell a lure here and there to someone, I'm happy," he noted. Catching fish on his own tackle is quite a thrill, too. Especially a fish like that muskie: "It's a different feeling to catch all these fish on a lure and a rod that you made yourself," Ballis said. For more information on Brady's Custom Rod & Tackle, email btballis@comcast.net.

BUSINESS BRIEF Sweet sipping beer ready for Fair Big Wood Brewery, a White Bear Lake brewery founded in 2009, has created a new craft brew just for the Minnesota State Fair. Chocolate Chip Cookie beer will be poured exclusively at Andy’s Grille during the Fair, which runs Aug. 25-Sept. 5. The flavored beer comes from two State Fair traditions: buckets of chocolate chip cookies and craft beer. Big Wood Brewery’s Chocolate Chip Cookie beer has the appearance of the exterior of

a cookie, fresh from the oven. Golden tan in color, with a sweet malt backbone and hints of chocolate and vanilla, the sweet sipper is finished by rimming the glass with semisweet chocolate dust. “With the explosion of craft beer in Minnesota, along with the innovative food dishes showcasing each year at the State Fair, it was time for us to make this creative masterpiece in a glass,” said Steve Merila, founder and CEO.

CORRECTION The Aug. 3 article on the new 1st Down Football Foundation should have said the Mahtomedi organization is accepting gifts of $1 to $2,400 per year; not month. The Press apologizes for the error.

CHURCH BRIEF Mobile food shelf at senior center First Lutheran Church is partnering with the White Bear Lake Emergency Food Shelf to organize two volunteer teams for a new mobile food shelf Aug. 22 at the White Bear Lake Senior Center. First Lutheran Church has had a strong partnership with the White Bear Lake Food Shelf in the past, but this is the first time they will hold a mobile food shelf, in the hope that it will make the food shelf's services accessible to more people. One of the volunteer teams will meet at the White Bear Lake Food Shelf to help pack

up and transport the food for the mobile food shelf. The other team will meet at the White Bear Lake Senior Center to help the staff distribute and manage the mobile food shelf. To donate to the food shelf, contact First Lutheran Church at 651-429-5349 or contact the White Bear Lake Food Shelf at 651-407-5310. To join one of the volunteer teams, sign up at http://www.signupgenius.com/go/9040d4ca9a82aa75-wbfood or contact service teams director Perry Petersen at 651-429-5349 or at ppetersen@ flcwb.org.

Burgers and beer coming to township BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP — Two North Oaks businessmen don't have the address nailed down yet for their new burger restaurant, but they at least have the go-ahead to serve adult beverages. Lucy's Burgers will be located in the strip mall next to Mueller Family Theaters on County Road J. Where exactly, is something Joel Kunza and Rob Scott are waiting on as another business, Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping, negotiates for adjoining space at the mall. The men were eyeing the same former tanning salon, along with the empty Coldstone Creamery, as a site for a 100-seat restaurant. If Farrell's takes the salon, they will consider a former coffee shop in the complex. That space will seat at least 40. Another snafu was a township moratorium on liquor licenses passed earlier this summer, which affected design of Lucy's. Scott, who owns an IT company, said there was confusion about the requirements for beer and wine versus full liquor service. When they designed their restaurant, the space was configured for full liquor. The township requires seating for 100 to serve full liquor. If they lease the smaller space, full liquor is not an option. Scott apologized to the Town Board Aug. 3 for the confusion, telling supervisors they thought a permit allowed full liquor no matter the size. They are designing a cafe with 53 seats but if the Coldstone/tanning salon space becomes available, they're likely jump it to 100 seats. The board agreed to lift the morato-

rium after the update and amended the the ordinance, choosing language under Option 1, which allows on-sale liquor at a restaurant with seating for at least 100 and wine and strong beer for a restaurant with seating for at least 40. Option 1 gives them more flexibility, Kunza said, and reduces their risk. "It fits no matter what happens with the landlord," he said. Kunza is executive vice president of National Recoveries, Inc. The partners say they are not daunted by a lack of experience in the restaurant business. "We'll find good people to run it, and we'll serve good food in a good spot," Scott said. "There's nothing around us like this," added Kunza, noting that the two live in close proximity at Rapp Farm, a 120-acre neighborhood on the northeast edge of North Oaks. To help them in the venture, the men hired Tony Benshoof, a White Bear Lake former luge Olympian with experience managing restaurants and sports bars. Benshoof retired from luge competition in 2010. "Tony is very much involved," Scott said. "We hope to keep him throughout the process to get it opened as soon as possible." Benshoof helps coach the junior national luge team so will be off to Lake Placid, N.Y., this fall. So why call it Lucy's? "Have you ever heard of Juicy Lucy's?" Kunza asked. For those who don't know, a Juicy Lucy is a popular Minnesota creation — melted cheese surrounded by burger. It will be on their menu. The goal is to open late fall.

Peace Corps volunteer looking for ‘likes’ The proud grandmother of Colleen Wood, a 2010 graduate of White Bear Area High School and Georgetown University graduate, is asking the community for some "likes" in a Peace Corps Facebook contest. Wood works as an education volunteer for the Peace Corps in Cholpon-Ata, Kyrgyzstan and writes a blog, called Prekrasno, "to share stories of the people, food and cultures of countries that many of us never have a chance to visit," said Peg Feirtag of White Bear Township. According to her grandmother, Wood's blog was selected from 300 submissions as a finalist in the ‘Blog it Home” contest to be run by the Peace Corps on Facebook Aug. 11 through Aug. 15. "It will show a picture of her, along with other contestants, and those with the most ‘likes’ will be flown to Washington D.C. for professional development opportunities," Feirtag said. "Check out her blog for more information as she

Railroad Park, located along Highway 61 between Third Street and Fourth Street, was aptly named as it sat adjacent to the railroad depot when it was originally built in 1868. By 1932 the local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution petitioned the city to change the street on the east side of the park from Railroad Avenue to Washington Avenue in honor of George Washington’s 200th birthday. The street name was changed and the park is sometimes referred to as Washington Park. This view shows the park ca. 1940.

Recently, the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association has initiated a ground breaking study on the safety and effectiveness of chiropractic care for children. In this study, parents reported three unexpected improvements with their child's care: • Improved sleeping • Improved behavior and attitude • Improved immune system function Chiropractic care for children offers your family a solid foundation for wellness throughout pregnancy, birth, and childhood. More and more parents are seeking chiropractic care for their children. Even so called “natural” birthing methods can stress an infant’s spine and developing nerve system. The resulting irritation to the nerve system caused by spinal and cranial misalignment can be the cause of many newborn health complaints. Colic, breathing problems, nursing difficulties, sleep disturbances, allergic reactions and chronic infections can often be traced to nerve system stress. Since significant spinal trauma can occur at birth, many parents have their newborns checked right away. As the infant grows, learning to hold up the head, sit, crawl and walk are all activities that affect spinal alignment and are important times to have a child checked by a Doctor of Chiropractic.

If neglected, the injuries during this period of rapid growth may lead to more serious problems later in life. The expertise of Dr. Gina and Dr. Justin are in checking the child’s spine for misalignments that impair nervous system function therefore affecting overall body function. The bones of the spine, the vertebrae, house and protect the spinal cord. The spinal cord is an extension of the brain and carries information from the brain to the body parts and back to the brain again. Subluxations interfere with the nerves’ ability to transmit this vital information. So why should you have your child’s spine checked? Children are as susceptible to spinal trauma from various events and activities. These micro traumas can cause the vertebrae of the spine to misalign, placing pressure on their spinal nerves and therefore decreasing their bodies’ ability to function normally. Although symptoms, such as pain and malfunction may not show up for years, injury to their vital nervous system can create a lifetime of effects. Dr. Gina Nelson and Dr. Justin Nelson specialize in the treatment of adults and children of all ages.

Pine Tree tennis event reaches $5M milestone in 31st year BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

A White Bear Lake tennis tournament is an event circled on the calendars of many standout players each year. “The Pine Tree means so much to me,” stated Imke Reimers, a five-time champion who flies in from Boston every year, “because I get to spend a weekend with some of my favorite people, but more importantly because we get to raise funds for a great cause, helping so many children and their families in Minnesota and all over the world.” Last weekend’s Pine Tree Apple Tennis Classic at Lifetime Fitness is a four-day fundraiser for Children’s Hospital in Minneapolis and St. Paul, consisting of three mixed doubles tournaments before a crowd watching from a large covered grandstand. A Rochester duo, Alexa Palen and Nick Crossley, emerged with top honors this year in the gala that featured 112 players, most of them current or former college tennis players, competing by invitation only. As always, the final day included a program to introduce young patients and their families, along with doctors, nurses and researchers. “As a former Children’s Hospital employee, and parent of a child who needed to spend eight months at the Minneapolis Hospital,” said Michael Jung, who reached the Masters semifinals with Suzie Heideman, “I know what a fine institution we have in our own backyard.” The event started in 1986 after the Art and Ella Mae

White Bear Health Mart Pharmacy, “Best Service South of the Lake”

Jacobson family, who operate the Pine Tree Apple Orchard, were asked, through a mutual friend, by the parents of a child with cancer to help with a fundraiser. “We said yes, and that was the best decision we ever made,” said Nancy Jacobson at the tournament Saturday — 31 years and $5 million later. Keri Pakonen, director, said the total donations pushed over the $5 million mark this year.

“There is nothing better than getting to do what you love for a good cause.” Alexa Palen Mixed doubles winner Sorely missed was Ella Mae, who passed away earlier this year. A page in the program was dedicated to her. Reimers, an economics professor at Northeastern University in Boston, had won three titles with Erik Donley and one each with Tony Larson and Mathieu Froment, but there would not be a sixth title this year. Reimers and Donley won twice before falling to Kelsey Frechette and Jeff Adolf in the quarterfinals. Flechette, a Rochester native who finished her Gophers career this spring, felt a special connection to the Pine Tree event, noting that her mother had Hodgkin’s Lymphoma as a child. “I am so glad to be part of such an amazing cause,” she said. Melanie Yates and Julian Dehn stopped Flechette and Adolf in the semifinals when the latter had to retire in the third set. Palen and Crossley then won an intense championship match 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 over Yates and Dehn. The champs had beaten Paula Rincon Otero and Mathieu Froment 7-5, 6-1 in the semifinals. “There is nothing better than getting to do what you

love for a good cause,” said Palen, “and seeing all the families and kids come together and enjoy the weekend.” Palen, who starred at No. 1 singles for the Gophers, graduating in 2013, and won two state titles at Rochester Lourdes, works for Ameriprise Financial. Crossley, three-time All-American at Gustavus Adolphus, is a tennis pro in Rochester and coaches at Rochester Century and Carleton College. Yates just finished a four-year tennis career at Gonzaga University in Washington and will enter medical school in Cleveland. Dehn, a former Gopher player from Germany, is a research analyst. The Masters champions were Larissa Mavros, a Western Michigan sports hall of famer, and Kevin Werwie, former Gophers captain and No. 1 singles and doubles player. They beat Megan Kimber and John Rondos 6-3, 6-7 (3-6), 10-3 in the finals. Werwie was playing in his 24th Pine Tree and nabbed his fourth title. The Grand Masters champions were Felicia Raschiatore, tennis manager at Williston Fitness Center in Minnetonka, and Mike Olson, a Lifetime Fitness tennis pro. They won 6-2, 6-3 in the finals over Robin Coverdale, a club tennis director, and Bryan Biewer, Lifetime Fitness tennis pro and coach at Mounds Park Academy. Participants also included Jackson Farley, new White Bear Lake boys tennis coach; Kathy Alex, new Mahtomedi girls tennis coach who was an All-American at UCLA; Justin Gaard, KFAN sports radio personality and two-time state champion at Edina; Jake Trondson, No. 1 singles for Mounds View’s 2015 state champions; and DJ Warden, former Mahtomedi and Grinnell College player who teamed with fellow lawyer Caren Seenauth, who played in two NCAA tournaments with University of Miami.

U17 soccer team wins state After three consecutive years of State Tournament appearances, this White Bear under 17 C1 club soccer team capped it off by bringing home a State Championship. With wins over Central MN (4-1) and Lakeville (3-2), they finalized things by beating their season long nemesis Maplebrook by a score of 3-1 in the championship game on July 23. Submitted

A classic lesson in course management If you happened to see the 2009 British Open at Turnberry, you witnessed one of the most amazing feats ever in the history of golf. Tom Watson came ever so close to winning one of the majors, and at 59 would have been the oldest (by 10 years). He bogeyed the last hole and went on to lose in the playoff to Stewart Cink. If you’re like most people, you probably wondered how this guy, at this age, could perform at that level for four days. Was he the longest driver? Did he hit more greens than anyone else? Fewest putts perhaps? The answer is no to all of the stats. Simply put, he was the best tactician on a golf course that demanded the right club, the right shot, at the right time. Tee Time When he was interviewed before the with Coach tournament he said that he had been working on his game plan, and he drew Betsy Larey from the wealth of information that he had collected over the years playing links golf in the British Open. In case you hadn’t heard, he won that tournament five times. I distinctly remember you could not tell how he was playing because the look on his face never changed. Good shot, bad shot, any shot it never changed. So if you’re preparing to play in your season ending tournament this month, what could you take Tom Watson’s masterful example of how to manage yourself on the course? First and foremost, you need to have a game plan. I’ve written before about playing tournament golf, and how it’s different than your normal round. To develop your game plan, you should start by knowing everything about your course. If you’re like most golfers, you probably hit the same shot with the same club from approximately the same place most of the time.

Try playing a practice round and drop balls in places you’ve never been. Chances are you will hit different shot s with different clubs compared to your normal round. How good are you at hitting a punch shot under a tree limb? I’ll bet you don’t practice that shot very often. During your practice rounds before the tournament, take along a small note pad and record all of your shots. Most people know if they tend to be long or short with approach shots. Do you know if your wedges and putts miss left or right? The second thing you need to do is to pay attention to your state of mind during your rounds. There are things you can do to help you stay positive and focused. Tom Watson has worked on breathing techniques to help him stay calm. If you’re feeling tension in your body when you stand over a ball, try inhaling and when you exhale, start your swing. Another technique you can use is to stand on one leg at a time with your eyes closed. Staying balanced calms your brain as well as your body. My favorite for staying “in the zone” is to pick a song I like and start it as soon as I start my pre-shot routine. Your mind is too busy playing the song to be distracted by anything else. If you’re not playing well, switch to a different song and blame those bad shots on the wrong tune. Finally, nutrition plays a very important role in helping you maintain your energy level for 18 holes. You will not see Tour players (except John Daly) eating a hot dog at the turn. Stay away from red meat, candy bars and soda. Meat takes a lot of energy to process, and candy and soda

Bears golfer Peterson is state junior public links runner-up BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

Jack Peterson, White Bear Lake senior-to-be, was runner-up in the state Public Links tournament on July 31, highlighting a strong summer of golf. Peterson shot 76-31-107 in regulation to tie Wayzata’s Ian Mackenzie-Olson for first place, then parred the extra hole while his opponent rolled in an eagle putt for the victory, at Southern Hills in Farmington. “I eliminated any big misses, and my putting was strong,” assessed Peterson, recalling only one missed putt inside five feet. Having his close friend Nick Abbott as a caddy “made the tournament a lot more fun, and helped because I talked through a lot of my shots with him.”

STATE OF MINNESOTA DISTRICT COURT COUNTY RAMSEY SECOND JUDICIAL DISTRICT FILE NO. P.S. 62-CV-16-1762 ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE In the Matter of the Petition of Bank of America, N.A. In Relation to Certificate of Title No. 581507 issued for land in the County of Ramsey and State of Minnesota legally described as: All that part of Lot 26 and the North 7.5 feet of Lot 25 lying west of a line running from a point on the North line of said Lot 26 distant 78.5 feet East of the Northwest corner thereof to a point on the South line of Lot 24 distant 79.5 feet East of the Southwest corner thereof; and all that part of the North 9 feet of said Lot 26 lying East of said line, Block 25, Chas. Weide’s Subdivision of Blocks 25 & 26 of Arlington Hills Add. TO ALL PARTIES WITH AN INTEREST IN THIS REAL ESTATE, PARTICULARLY: Parties to be served: Lor Por Yang, Kab Xiong and all occupants of the subject property. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that unless you appear before this Court on the 31st day of August, 2016, at 2:00 p.m. in Room 170 Ramsey County Courthouse, 15 W. Kellogg Blvd, St. Paul, MN 55102, to make a valid objection, the Court will enter the following Order: NOW THEREFORE, IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, that the Registrar of Titles of Ramsey County, upon the filing of a certified copy of this Order, Court File No. 62-CV-16-1762, cancel Certificate of Title No. 581507 and enter a new certificate for the land therein described in favor of Bank of America, N.A., free of all the memorials now appearing on said cancelled certificate up to and including Doc No 2540317 and free of the memorial of this Order.

Peterson also qualified for the Minnesota State Amateur, won a Minnesota Junior PGA event with a 75, and won the Tanners Brook Junior Club Championship by eight strokes with a 3-under-par 70-69. At the publinx, the 18-hole leader was Justin Turnquist with 69 while Peterson shot 71 and Mackenzie-Olson 74. Turnquist lost the lead with 39 on the last nine, playing in the group with Peterson. “My goal was to beat (Turnquist) and I managed to

do it with a 36,” Peterson said. “I later found out that Mackenzie shot two-under 33 on the final nine holes and we were tied.” In the par-five playoff hole, with a small creek in front of the green, both drove into the left rough, Peterson 195 yards away from the pin and Mackenzie-Olson about 15 yards closer. Both went for the green. Peterson’s five-iron shot landed just right of right of the green and his chip shot wasn’t close. He needed to two putt. Mackenzie-Olson’s approach, meanwhile, landed 2 1/2 feet from the pin. Peterson averaged 77.5 strokes for the conference champion Bears this spring, including 75.5 in conference for third place. He is 2016/17 golf captain for the Bears.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this Order be served: (a) at least 10 days prior to such hearing upon all of the above named parties residing in this State in the manner provided by law for the service of a Summons in a Civil action; (b) at least 14 days prior to such hearing upon any of the above named parties not residing in this State by sending a copy of this Order by registered or certified mail, return receipt, to each of such parties at his/her post office address; (c) upon any of the above named parties who cannot be found by two weeks published notice and at least 14 days prior to the hearing by sending a copy of this Order by First Class mail to each of such parties at his/her last known address and at his/her address as stated on the Certificate of Titles if his/her address is so stated.

* The fiscal disparities property tax law provides that the growth in commercial-industrial property tax values is shared throughout the area. In a tax increment financing district, this value sharing can either result in a tax increase for other properties in the municipality or result in a decrease in tax increment financing district revenue depending on how the tax increment financing district is established. ** The districts noted by ** above do not share growth in commercial-industrial property tax values. This results in an increase in property taxes for other properties located in that municipality. For taxes payable in 2015, this increase in taxes on other properties amounted to the values listed above.

In October 2015, “Nikki” was diagnosed with DCIS, which is considered Stage 0 breast cancer. Multiple surgeries led to the discovery that it was much farther along - at least Stage 2 of a rapidly spreading tumor. As the oncologist said,”It has legs” and had moved into the lymph nodes. The original treatment plan called for surgery and radiation; this would not be enough. Consequently she endured two rounds of chemotherapy - twelve 3 hour sessions for round one and four 3 hour sessions of what some cancer patients call the “Red Devil” or the “Ruby Sisters.” Sixteen sessions total. Following this chemo regimen, Nikki has started the seven weeks of radiation. Needless to say these treatments were exhausting, nauseating, and extremely tiring with many long days in bed. With three children in activities and enduring days of unsettling body reactions to her cancer treatment, Nicole has remained positive throughout. This, what our family calls her “Olympic Challenge Benefit”, is to celebrate life and show support for Nicole and her family. All contributions and donations will be used to defray the cost of the surgeries, testing, travel and scores of doctor visits, prescription co pays as well as ten years of future estrogen blocking medications designed to hopefully stop the cancer from reoccurring.

“EQUALS” (PG-13)

— Tension, emotions, and passion slowly build in this polarizing, thought-provoking, well-acted, star-studded (Guy Pearce, Jacki Weaver and David Shelby), sci-fi, 102-minute, 2015 film based on Drake Doremus’s story and reminiscent of “Equilibrium” and “The Giver” in which an attractive writer (Kristen Stewart) and a handsome graphic illustrator (Nicholas Hoult), who live in a boring, bland, sterile, emotionless, whitewashed, futuristic, seemingly utopian dystopian society, suddenly contract the Switched on Syndrome (SOS) disease that causes the infected to feel and often leads to suicide, and then they find themselves in a forbidden, dangerous, “Romeo and Juliet” relationship.

We sweated through some pretty good opening days of the month as dew points reached into the low and mid 70’s. A rainstorm dumped nearly 2 inches of rain on Thursday morning, August 4, which was followed by cooler and drier air. It was a pretty nice weekend, Aug. 6-7, as temperatures dipped into the low 60’s in the morning. Astro Note: Aug 10, Mars to west of the moon. Aug. 12, Saturn to right of the moon and Perseid meteor shower.

“NERVE” (PG-13) [THEMATIC MATERIAL INVOLVING DANGEROUS AND RISKY BEHAVIOR, SOME SEXUAL CONTENT, LANGUAGE, DRUG CONTENT, DRINKING, AND NUDITY—ALL INVOLVING TEENS.]

Homecare & Hospice

The Waters Senior Living is rolling out a new family programming initiative. Beginning in August, members of the public are invited to attend free educational events being held at The Waters’ communities throughout the Metro, including The Waters of White Bear Lake. Upcoming themes at the White Bear Lake location include Advance Care Planning 2 p.m. Sept. 21, the Long Journey of Grief 6:30 p.m. Oct. 17, Understanding Caregiver Stress 6:30 p.m. Nov. 1 and Caring through the Holidays 6:30 p.m. Nov. 30, and Fall Prevention 3 p.m. Dec. 19. The Waters’ Director of Resident Engagement, Anne McDonald, has designed the program using her 15 years of experience in healthcare. With a Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work and additional certification in Gerontological practice, McDonald understands how family dynamics can help or hinder major life transitions. All programming will provide up-to-date and evidence-based information that empowers

families with knowledge and skill to help them cope with change and increase their wellbeing. This includes resources, handouts, and other educational materials. To see the full schedule of available programs and to register, go to www.thewatersseniorliving.com/academy/. Light refreshments will be served at all events, which are open to both

people with loved ones living at The Waters communities and members of the general public. The Waters community, 3820 Hoffman Road, is 12 percent occupied, which is on plan according to Marketing Director Mary Pat Ladner. She adds, "We've had a burst of tours lately, six a day." From press release
