For whom the bells toll: 100th anniversary of Armistice Day DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR
Bells will be ringing at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, just like they did 100 years ago to herald the end of World War I. This time, another sort of commemoration will take place at that hour on that day to honor veterans of that war and all wars. The Soldiers Memorial Flagpole at Washington Park will be officially rededicated after a successful campaign by the White Bear Lake Lions Club to restore the monument, built in 1939. The flagpole was dedicated on Veterans Day the same year and its stone base completed the following spring. It serves as a patriotic tribute to all soldiers. The 11th of November is observed in Europe and North America and is also called Remembrance Day or Veterans Day. It marks the signing of the armistice between the Allies and Germany at Compiègne, France, which ended hostilities on the Western Front of World War I. The cease-fire came into force at 11 a.m., being the “eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month” of 1918. A clipping from the White Bear Press Nov. 14, 1918, entitled “Bells Ring Out News,” recalls the scene in town on the morning of Nov. 11 when Armistice was declared in the Great War: “Early Monday morning; the ringing of the fire bell, to which was quickly added the tones of the Episcopalian, Catholic and Presbyterian Church, and school bells, announced to the sleeping citizens of White Bear that the great day had come, and that the armistice, which practically ended the great war, had been signed.” An impromptu celebration ensued, according to the 100-year-old article. A parade was “hastily organized,” which set out from the fire engine house, headed by members of the White Bear School Band. “Co. K fell in behind the band,” noted the Press, “and then came a good turnout of the ladies of the Red Cross. A mounted troop of men followed, dragging a dummy intended to represent the defeated kaiser and behind that a coffin to receive the remains when the time should come.”
Living with Lyme disease inspiration for foundation BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR
For 16 years, Lisa Najarian had symptoms she couldn't explain for an infection she couldn't treat. That changed in 2015 with a positive diagnosis for Lyme disease and with her newfound energy, Najarian and her husband Pete have launched a foundation to help others battling the malady. It is the mission of the Grant couple to connect people to Lyme-literate physicians through their
Twin Cities Lyme Foundation. Launched in July, the nonprofit foundation is dedicated to early detection and accurate diagnosis of Lyme disease. Lisa Najarian considers the foundation her calling now that she's able to lead a more normal life. She's not completely recovered from Lyme disease — there is no cure for the tickborne illness — but once diagnosed, a regimen of oral antibiotics has given her a semblance of her life back.

Little Free Library remembers Nicolas When Melissa and Aaron Haase wanted to do something special in memory of their son Nicolas, they picked a Little Free Library for the Preschool of St. Andrew's. Nicolas, who was stillborn, would have turned 5 in September, so this would have been his last year of preschool. His twin sister Audrey attends the pre-K school and her older brother Jackson is a St. Andrew's preschool graduate. “We were looking for something to do to remember Nicolas,” Melissa said. “This seemed fitting to honor him here.” Pastor Brian Norsman dedicated the library Nov. 1 with a blessing and songs the preschoolers knew by heart. “This little library is all about reading and remembering, not only Nicolas, but about how we can read and further our education and learning in powerful ways,” he said. The pastor told the gathered preschoolers that the little
library “will touch the neighborhood, touch your hearts and the entire world. Blessings as we dedicate this little library to God's glory and praise and remember Nicolas.” Coincidentally, the founder of the Little Free Library, Todd Bol, died of pancreatic cancer Oct. 18 at age 62, the weekend the library was installed at the Mahtomedi preschool. The model is a replica of the one Bol made for his mother, according to Melissa. Bol, who lived in Hudson, Wisconsin, was inspired to put up the first little library as a memorial to his mother. She was a teacher, so the library was designed to look like a schoolhouse. There are about 75,000 registered little libraries around the world. Thrivent Financial co-sponsored the library, installed outside the school's front door. Debra Neutkens

Spotlight on a Cause: Theater that makes a difference When Children's Performing Arts (CPA) first realized its dream of sharing space at the new Hanifl Performing Arts Center and expanding program offerings, one goal was to present theater that could make a difference. “We specialize in educational leadership programs through the performing arts,” said Children’s Performing Arts Board Chair Sharon Hanifl-Lee. “It's part of our mission to not only teach
children theater, but also leadership skills and how they can be a vital part of their local and greater world community. We knew that we wanted to do something different that could tie all of these concepts together, so our Spotlight on a Cause program was born.” In addition to the stage production, the students, taking part in the Spotlight on a Cause program, are working on a leadership component that focuses

Rotary helps bring safe water to Nigerian schools White Bear Lake Rotary Club recently completed fundraising for a Rotary Global Grant. Global grants provide an opportunity for local Rotary Clubs to raise funds that are then matched by Rotary International.

The WASH projects will significantly impact the lives of students and teachers attending the schools. Safe water reduces illnesses, and access to adequate latrines and hand-washing is essential, particularly for girls who often drop out of school if latrines are not available. The projects will be completed within the next two to three months. The White Bear Lake Rotary Club, in partnership with H2O for Life, (a youth engagement nonprofit based in White Bear Lake), Procter & Gamble, PIND (Nigerian Implementing partner) and Rotary Clubs from around the state SUBMITTED and worldwide worked together to provide the funding. The project was managed by White Bear New latrines and hand washing facilities at a Nigerian school. Lake Rotarians Fred Treiber and Patty Hall. Gathering the funds and managing all the partnerships was time-consuming, project managers said, but the outcome and impact is well worth the time invested. The schools in Nigeria serve large numbers of students, typically 800 to 1,000 per school. The projects will provide water and sanitation access to more than 4,000 students and teachers. The White Bear Lake Rotary Club recently received an additional District Grant of $10,200 to provide a water well, storage tanks and filtration systems for two more schools in Nigeria. These grants are a result of a three-year commitment to provide WASH projects for 30 schools in Nigeria. To date, 17 schools have been funded, with another seven in the funding pipeline. The Rotarians thank all of the participants for making this work possible.

on learning about a cause and how to actively bring awareness to and raise money for that cause. This year’s cause is the global water crisis, which involves working with H2O for Life. H2O for Life is a White Bear Lake nonprofit that provides a service-learning opportunity for youth in the U.S. to raise awareness about the global water crisis while providing funds for water, sanitation and hygiene education projects for partner schools in the developing world. The cast has learned about a school in Tanzania — Muhwana Secondary School — that is in desperate need of clean water. At each performance, the public will have the opportunity to help the cast with fundraising efforts. To learn more about how you can help, contact info@childrensperformingartsmn.org. H2O introduced CPA to local author SissyMarySue (akaWendy Mulhauser) and her book, “Jelly Beans the Cheetah and Hope.” Mulhauser is a lifelong Minnesota educator and award-winning five-star Barnes and Noble author.

pathy as a means to encourage racial equality,” Mulhauser said. “This book is based on my experience with the Barabaig Tribe in Tanzania, Africa. The tribe needed clean water close to their village so girls could go to school. I visited Africa as a humanitarian through the Edina Rotary (Club) to witness firsthand the clean water projects for the Barabaig tribe.” An important element to the stage production is the walk for water. “Many local residents will be familiar with this if they've worked with H20 for Life in the past,” said Artistic Director Carrie Carlson. “Our actors will continually walk across the stage and show the endless walk for water that emulates the real-life struggle young girls of the Barabaig tribe face on a daily basis.” Submitted

Special designation
S
o you think you’re special? The answer to that question — based on variables like genetic heritage, family of origin and life experiences — strongly points to the conclusion that yes, we are all indeed unique in some way. During a recent phone conversation with my father I was reminded that my nephew Josiah, who is currently serving overseas in the Army and was quoted in an October article in “Stars and Stripes,” shares his name with an ancestor who fought at the battle of Bunker Hill during the Revolutionary War. My father, who enlisted in the Army during WWII at the age of 17 and was stationed at MacArthur’s headquarAngle of ters in Japan following the war, View expressed pride at this extended family lineage of military service. Paul Dols I’m not exactly sure how we got on the topic, but I recall sharing with a coworker the fact about the ancestor on my mother’s side of the family tree who fought at the battle of Bunker Hill. He politely listened and then shared that his wife (who was originally from the east coast) could trace her ancestry back to the family that owned the land where the historic battle took place. Similarly, a former editor responded to a column I wrote after being inspired by “Mayflower: A Story of Community, Courage, and War” by Nathaniel Philbrick. I had read the book with heightened interest because I was curious to see if any of my ancestral connections to the pilgrims were noted. I also found the book to be fascinating because it described a much more vivid reality than the accepted mythology many of us learned in grade school — including the complex relationship the Pilgrims had with the Native Americans. According to Philbrick, the Pilgrims likely would have perished during the first winter without the assistance of Massasoit, the leader of the Wampanoag tribe. After expressing her interest in the column, the former editor shared that she also had an ancestral connection to this time in history and was a direct descendant of Massasoit. At the time I thought, wow, what a small world, while any notions of exclusivity concerning my family heritage were put into perspective. Years before the emergence of services like ancestry.com my father conducted extensive research into our family’s history, tracing the roots back to Gundrada, the daughter of William the Conqueror. I shared this bit of trivia with a friend and he said that his family could also trace their roots back to William the Conqueror. Apparently William was prolific, because a significant segment of the population with family origins back in England are his descendants. Searching back into family history, I suspect most of us hope to find inspirational, heroic and influential figures, but the real findings turn out to be more nuanced — and human. As a checkered example, the name of Benedict Arnold makes an appearance on a side branch of my family’s ancestor chart. Regardless of our origins, I believe that one of the most defining and unifying factors that every human being alive on the planet shares is that we are all descended from survivors, many of whom overcame significant adversity. While we certainly face many challenges in present day life, the reality is that we probably have access to opportunities far beyond what our ancestors might even have imagined. I sometimes struggle to remain optimistic about the future, but think we still have a lot to be thankful for and believe we can gather some positive reassurance from the unique contributions and perseverance of those who came before us — from royalty to laborers and everyone in between.

Honoring sacrifice and courage on Veterans Day
M
ilitary service is a sacrifice that sustains our democracy. This is why every year we celebrate Veterans Day on November 11. It is a national holiday that honors America’s veterans for their patriotism, love of country and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good. America was built on the concept of freedom. At a time of deep Legislator division in this country, the spirit Lingo of freedom is one of Chuck Wiger the few things that brings us together. Veterans Day and the days surrounding it present a good opportunity to think about what it means to be an American. Millions of men and women have served and sacrificed for our country. November 11 is a time to be grateful for that service. Here are a few Veterans Day facts: • Veterans Day started as Armistice Day on Nov. 11, 1919, the first anniversary of when the World War I fighting ceased. • An annual observance of Armistice Day was passed by Congress in 1926. • Armistice Day became a national holiday in 1938. • President Eisenhower changed the name of Armistice Day to Vet-
erans Day in 1954. • There are 18.5 million veterans in the United States, according to the most recent statistics available. • There are 1.6 million female veterans. • There are 9.2 million veterans over the age of 65. We are in the midst of a new wave of American veterans. In recent years, more than a million of our men and women in uniform, many of them veterans of Afghanistan and Iraq, have completed their military service and returned to civilian life. Serving in the military changes a person. Our tributes will ring hollow if we do not ensure that our veterans receive the care and the job opportunities they have earned. Our veterans have skills. They have learned how to work in teams, how to stay committed to a mission and how to solve problems. They are brave, and they are qualified. We also have to keep investing in the facilities and the physicians and the staff to make sure that veterans get the care they deserve. That is our obligation. Communities across America celebrate Veterans Day with parades, ceremonies, acts of goodwill and stories about what it means to fight for America. I encourage everyone to show your gratitude to every man and woman who has served in the military. In honor of our veterans, please support our troops.
Many Minnesota communities have paid tribute to our veterans by erecting parks and memorials. Last year, the VFW in White Bear Lake dedicated a veteran’s memorial at VFW Post 1782, 4496 Lake Ave. S. I was invited to say a few words along with several other elected officials. Mahtomedi will host a ceremony on Nov. 11 at 1:30 p.m. at the former Triangle Park that is now named Veterans Park. The public is welcome to participate. Mahtomedi High School will host a Veterans Day panel on Nov. 8. This is an annual event with Mahtomedi history students. The program starts at 1 p.m. in the Chautauqua Fine Arts Center. Members of the public, including veterans, are welcome to attend. The program will be broadcast live and you can watch it at https://youtu.be/fJdIVJp0vjc. A prayer breakfast to honor veterans will be held on Thursday, Nov. 8, at 7 a.m. at Inwood Oaks, the former Prom Center in Oakdale. Please email oleaprayerbreakfast@gmail.com for more information. I encourage everyone to seek out places and events in the coming weeks and spend a few moments reflecting on veterans’ service to our country. Sen. Chuck Wiger represents District 43 in the Minnesota Senate. He can be reached by email at sen. chuck.wiger@senate.mn and by phone at 651-296-6820.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
H lth care comparison Health i tto cell ll phone market off base The article written by Sen. Roger Chamberlain was very misleading, to put it mildly. His comparison of the health care market to the cell phone market is completely off base. He also states that single-payer systems means the government will make all your health care decisions for you, which is untrue, and not how single-payer systems work in countries that do have them (e.g. Canada). And he refers to a number from a study on Minnesota health care that, for a single-payer system, “estimated the cost at $35 billion per year,” and asked the reader how they thought it would impact their tax bill. In fact, assuming the study he mentions is from the Lewin (not Lewen) group, the answers are in the study, along with other important facts. From the study, “Program expenditures under the single-payer system would be about $35.8 billion if fully implemented in 2014.” Right below that statement, it lists where that money would come from ($16B from Federal funds, $3B from
Mi t $17B ffrom ttaxes (i l di Minnesota, (including tobacco and alcohol tax). Also from the summary: • A total savings of $35.7 million to state and local governments; and • An average savings of $1,362 for families, including wage effects. Some of the $35 billion would be covered by existing taxes, according to the study. This Mr. Chamberlain also neglected to mention. There is absolutely no reason the United States, which spends more on health care per capita than any other nation, should be behind 30 other countries with lower infant mortality rates. Two of those countries have single-payer health care systems, which Mr. Chamberlain suggests would be a complete mess with our government officials running the system. But our politicians, if they are going to present information to us in a newspaper article, must not tailor the information so that it is misleading, and then use that tailored information as hyperbole to scare citizens instead of facts to educate us. It is articles like that written by Mr. Chamberlain that put politicians near the top of the list of least-trusted profes-
i sions, nott th the b bureaucracy. Andrew Maruyama White Bear Township
Thanks for being involved At this election time, I reach out to thank our many people who commit their time, energy and resources to local community involvement. While we constantly hear the news at national and global levels, it is our local communities that we touch each day, that truly touch us back with caring neighbors, great friends and a presence of “home.” Over the past 30 years, I’ve had the opportunity to represent and serve the City of Dellwood — I thank our residents for their trust. I’ve had the opportunity to work together with representatives of all our White Bear Lake area cities. We’ve all faced and will continue to face unique challenges within each of our cities, as well as matters affecting us together as neighboring communities with shared resources and services — thank you to all the cities for your caring and commitment to always be better.
O h lf off all ll our residents, id t h tf lt On b behalf heartfelt thanks to the best emergency services departments that support and cross-cover our communities in time of need — White Bear Lake, Washington and Ramsey County law enforcement and White Bear Lake and Mahtomedi Fire / Emergency Rescue.

In addition, I would like to pass on my appreciation to those candidates who participated in the event. I consider myself a better-informed voter because of this event. Heidi Wheelock Vadnais Heights
City settles defamation lawsuit with ‘Jane Doe’ BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR
GRANT — A defamation lawsuit filed by the city administrator against the city and a council member has been settled. Filed last March by City Administrator Kim Points, aka Jane Doe, the suit alleged that Larry Lanoux, individually and as a member of the City Council, made defamatory statements about her in April 2017 at the Eagle Valley Golf Club in front of the Woodbury mayor and within earshot of two Eckberg, Lammers attorneys. The firm was then outside counsel for Grant. According to the complaint filed in District Court, Lanoux told the mayor Points was dating a married Grant council member, repeating the accusation publicly several more times: in June, at a Grant City Council meeting, and in September when Lanoux commented on an article appearing in an online newsletter called the “Grant Report.” Points sued Lanoux and the city for having “injured her reputation in the local community, as well as subject her to contempt and ridicule.” In addition, the complaint indicated the statements deterred third persons from associating or dealing with Points and that Lanoux made the defamatory and slanderous remarks with “reckless indifference as to their truth, without cause and without regard for their consequences.” The council met in closed session June 6 to discuss
the pending litigation, listed as Jane Doe v. Larry Lanoux et al. After a 40-minute meeting, a motion was approved 4-0 to offer the plaintiff $50,000 in settlement of claims against the city. Lanoux was absent. The League of Minnesota Cities insurance trust, which covers Lanoux, is still working on finalizing an agreement with Points. The claims department manager did not want to state a figure until “everything is buttoned up” but a payout of $25,000 to dismiss the charges is a rumored amount. Rifts between the two parties apparently go back to 2011 when “a simple misunderstanding initiated years of ill will, malice, hostility and harassment” directed at Points, read the complaint. It all started when Lanoux, an electrician, requested weekend access to City Hall to hook up an electrical socket to power an announcer’s stand for an upcoming parade. He was then a private citizen. Points told Lanoux no one would be available during the weekend. Lanoux received permission to install the outlet on the outside of the building, at no cost to Grant. A few months later an inspector told Points the outlet was installed incorrectly. He also told her Lanoux’s electrician’s license had expired. Soon after, the inspector realized he made a mistake, that Lanoux had a current license as a Class A electrical contractor. According to the complaint, Lanoux then accused Points of asking the inspector to check on his license. Animosity seemed to escalate from there as Points stated Lanoux still harbors ill will more than five
years later. The tit for tat is documented in affidavits, police reports and complaints. She tendered her resignation in November 2012 because of the harassment, but the City Council “refused to accept Points’ resignation,” read the complaint. “They convinced her to stay, changed her title (from clerk) to city administrator and gave her a raise.” In November 2014, Lanoux was elected to the council. In the three counts of defamation filed by Points’ attorney, Anthony Gabor of Morris Law Group, Lanoux was accused of communicating his statements with malice to injure the city administrator’s reputation, as well as to cause her to leave her position with the city. Gabor had sent a cease-and-desist letter to Lanoux in July 2017 demanding a public apology at the next City Council meeting. Lanoux’s attorney, Allison Eklund, responded a week later saying Lanoux disagreed with the “characterization of his statements as defamation and denies accusing her of dating any of the current city council members.” She added, however, that Lanoux was prepared to apologize in a public statement at the August meeting. That did not happen. The city was implicated due to Lanoux’s membership on the council. According to the complaint, Lanoux made the “false, defamatory and slanderous statements for, and on behalf of Grant, such that Grant is vicariously liable for any damages suffered by Points.” Points asked for damages in excess of $50,000.
OBITUARY NOTICES
Kathleen Pearl Fiedler
Peter Anthony Hall
Kathleen Pearl Fiedler, a long-time resident of White Bear Lake, passed away on October 18, 2018 in Federal Way, Washington, shortly after celebrating her 90th Birthday. Mrs. Fiedler was born in Tacoma, Washington on September 15, 1928 to Pearl and Wesley Bown of Seattle. The oldest of three children, she graduated from Roosevelt High School in 1946 and continued on to receive a Business Degree from the University of Washington. In August 1950 Kathleen married Arthur Fiedler; they were married for 61 Years. Kathleen and Arthur moved from Auburn, Washington to Moorhead in 1965 for Arthur's employment through the Railroad, and then settled in White Bear Lake in 1973 where they raised their family. They ended up relocating back to the Seattle Area in 1989 to retire. Kathleen was a devoted wife, daughter, mother, and grandmother. She was an avid gardener, cook, and homemaker; as well as an amazing seamstress who made many of her own clothes for herself and her family. She enjoyed knitting and crocheting, reading, Bridge Club, camping and hiking. She could often times be spotted supporting her sons with Boy Scouts, as all three of her sons became Eagle Scouts. She was the No. 1 fan for all sporting activities in which her sons participated. Kathleen always offered to provide a hot meal, cookies, cakes and/or coffee for those who came to visit. In addition to being a homemaker, Kathleen worked as a secretary for Gould and Gould Insurance Agency in Seattle, and then later worked as a secretary for Central Junior High School in White Bear Lake for 15 years.

PUBLIC SAFETY BRIEFS Death of man who died in cooler determined an accident The death of White Bear Lake man Todd Keeling in a walk-in cooler at SunTrust Park in Atlanta was determined an accident, reports the Cobb County Courier. The Cobb County Medical Examiner determined after an autopsy that Keeling died of carbon dioxide poisoning and that it was an accident. No criminal charges will be fi led, according to the Cobb County Police Department. Keeling was a contractor working at the Braves stadium when his body was discovered June 26.
Sheriff ’s office rolls out community liaison officer program The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office announced the roll-out of its Community Liaison Officer (CLO) program this month, a partnership that is designed to foster and strengthen mutually trusting relationships between law enforcement and the community. The CLO program will rely on community-based partners, known as Community Liaison Officers, who live and work in Ramsey County’s varied and diverse communities. These partners will serve as “bridges,” helping to facilitate open and transparent communication, cooperation and collaboration between the Sheriff’s Office and the communities it serves. A team of three CLOs has already signed on to partner with the Sheriff’s Office; they are Samakab Hussein, Chia Lor and Mai Lor. The CLO program will soon expand to a full 10 to 12 community-based partners. In addition to serving as bridges, CLOs will continue the efforts of the already-established Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office Community Circle to expand dialogue with diverse communities surrounding racial and gender equity, mental health support and pathways to employment.
Sheriff ’s office launches new safety assessment committee The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office launched its Safety Assessment Committee (SAC) last month along with a new Regional Services Division Sergeant position that will serve as the

committee lead and point of contact. The SAC was created in response to an increasing demand and need in our communities for comprehensive “after-action” in the wake of critical incident such as active shooters, threats to places of worship and security breaches in private facilities. In its primary role, the SAC will work collaboratively with Ramsey County’s Emergency Management and Homeland Security division, the Minnesota Department of Public Safety School Safety program, and venue stakeholders to reduce the opportunity for active intruder vio-
lence. This will involve assisting schools, government offices, corporations and places of worship toward “hardening” themselves as targets. “We are stronger when we communicate, coordinate and plan together,” said Joe Paget, undersheriff of the Regional Services Division. Other roles of the SAC will include providing community education on risk mitigation, outreach to communities that face heightened risk due to aggravating factors, providing training to both public and private groups and facilitating discussions to determine the best course of action after a threat has been neutralized.
WASHINGTON COUNTY SHERIFF’S REPORTS The Washington County Sheriff's Office reported the following selected incidents in Birchwood, Dellwood, Grant, Mahtomedi, Pine Springs and Willernie:
Dellwood • A St. Paul man was issued a written warning at 12:10 a.m. Oct. 26 in the 50 block of Dellwood Avenue for speeding 39 mph in a 30 mph zone after northbound deputies clocked the motorist on southbound Mahtomedi Avenue and followed him before conducting a traffic stop. The driver said he thought he was only going 35 mph.
Grant • Two couch sections were reported dumped at the side of the road Oct. 22 near the intersection of 75th Street N. and Kimbro Avenue. Employees of the public works department were called out to the scene. • Two City Council members running for re-election reported their large campaign signs and T-posts near the intersection of 88th Street N. and Jamaca Avenue N. stolen Oct. 23 by a person they believe has been their political rival on council. • A Hinckley woman, 30, was arrested at 6:49 p.m. Oct. 23 on Manning Trail N. and 120th Street N. for DWI, refusal to submit to a chemical test and third-degree driving while impaired after deputies received a report of a possible intoxicated driver. While checking the area, Washington County Sheriff's deputies observed the subject's vehicle pulled over to the side of the road with its headlights on. The
motorist showed obvious signs of intoxication and registered 0.26 on the field sobriety test. • A PTO (power take-off) shaft from a piece of farm equipment was reported lost Oct. 26 somewhere near the intersection of Manning Avenue N. and Mendel Road N. while the complainant was towing a trailer on Manning Avenue N. • A St. Paul man, 22, was cited Oct. 28 on Highway 36 and Keats Avenue N. for driving after revocation and failure to provide proof of insurance after deputies on patrol conducted a random computer check and also noticed a large crack in the windshield. The motorist admitted to knowing his license was not valid, but claimed his insurance, which expired in 2017, was still valid. A quick call to the insurance company confi rmed deputies' suspicions that the policy was no longer valid.
Mahtomedi • A young male was reported at 7:28 a.m. Oct. 23 for stealing 13 packs of cigarettes from the Freedom Valu Center in the 1000 block of Wildwood Road after trying multiple times to buy cigarettes without producing valid identification. The male, who appeared underage, returned after leaving the store, walked behind the counter and snatched the cigarettes before fleeing. • A crying baby was reported at 12:30 a.m. Oct. 25 in the 800 block of Stillwater Road by the resident above him, who asked deputies to go down and talk to the mother about getting the baby to stop. When deputies arrived at the low-
er unit, they found blissful silence and decided not to speak to the mother, which would have resulted in awakening her and the baby. • A large amount of liquid was reported spilled Oct. 25 in the middle of the street in the 300 block of Jesse James Lane, followed by an even larger amount of sand piled on top of the liquid. The complainant, who wanted both reported and gone by the next day, volunteered to call the city for disposal. • A resident in the 1400 block of Hallam Avenue N. on Oct. 26 reported a moving company for fraudulent use of her bank card. • A Mahtomedi man, 37, was reported at 3:36 p.m. Oct. 26 for damaging the Dairy Queen building in the 800 block of Wildwood Road as he went through the drive-thru. Employees, who were able to retrieve the license number of the subject's trailer, said they didn't want to go to court, but rather work out compensation with the driver. The motorist said he was amenable to the solution. • A Grant man, 41, was arrested on a warrant at 4:03 p.m. Oct. 26 while he was in Bloody Mary's Bar in the 90 block of Mahtomedi Avenue after deputies received an anonymous tip that the subject was in the bar with an active warrant for his arrest. • A resident in an apartment building in the 70 block of Mahtomedi Avenue on Oct. 26 reported his neighbor for harassing him after the complainant, 83, told the subject to keep his hands off his wife and later posted a note on the community bulletin board. Deputies advised the complainant on ways to be more civil and how to
take out a harassment restraining order. • Deputies discovered a Mahtomedi woman, 32, reported by the tenant above her in the 800 block of Stillwater Road for playing loud music at 11:07 p.m. Oct. 27, was in an impaired condition while alone with two young children.
Willernie • A Willernie youth, 13, was reported Oct. 27 for throwing baseball-sized rocks at the backboard of a basketball hoop in the city park near the 400 block of Dartmoor Road. When deputies arrived on the scene, they noted a large crack in the backboard and a large collection of rocks lying on the court under it. The youth's grandmother, with whom he lives, said she wanted her grandson brought home immediately and that she would be grounding him. When deputies located the youth, he said he was gently throwing the rocks and that the large crack had already been there before the incident. • A Willernie woman, 39, was arrested at 4:41 a.m. Oct. 28 on Kimberly Road for domestic assault, fleeing a peace officer and obstructing the legal process after deputies chased her vehicle to the address and ordered her to stop. Instead, the subject continued fleeing into the residence, where she argued with the occupants and wouldn't let one of the victims leave the bathroom, instead blocking the door. When another resident grabbed the subject by the arms and moved her out of the way, she sprayed him in the eyes with rubbing alcohol.

Vadnais Heights • First, it was a traffic violation Oct. 25 on Highway 61 at County Road D. Then it was driving with an instruction permit only — no license.

DEDICATION: White Bear Lions restoration project completed in time for Veteran’s Day FROM PAGE 1A
Sara Markoe Hanson, executive director of the White Bear Historical Society, asked churches to recreate the ringing of the bells that occurred 100 years ago on Nov. 11. The carillon tower at City Hall will also chime for 100 seconds at 11 a.m. to commemorate the anniversary.
Day renamed in 1954 Veterans Day originated as Armistice Day on the first anniversary of the end of WWI. Congress passed a resolution in 1926 for an annual observance and in 1938, designated Nov. 11 a national holiday, dedicated to the cause of world peace. In 1954, President Dwight Eisenhower officially changed the name of the holiday from Armistice Day to Veterans Day. Nov. 11 then became a day to honor American veterans of all wars, living or dead. Great Britain, France, Australia and Canada also commemorate the veter-
ans of World War I and World War II on or near Nov. 11: Canada has Remembrance Day, while Britain has Remembrance Sunday on the second Sunday of November. The White Bear Lake Lion's Club Foundation took on the project in March 2017, raising $26,000 of the $83,000 needed for the memorial's restoration. The Lions Club donated another $40,000 and the city of White Bear Lake paid the remainder. Its 80-foot flag pole is the tallest in White Bear Lake. Costs increased for extra concrete work in the monument's base to support a sturdier, 12-inch flagpole.
IF YOU GO: Th S The Soldiers ldi M Memorial i l Fl Flagpole l att H Hwy. 61 and Third Street will be rededicated at 11 a.m. on the 11th day of the 11th month of 2018, 100 years after the Armistice was signed ending World War I.

Loon Chronicles III: A retrospective “With our fishing boat tucked away for the winter, this will be our final Loon Chronicles until next Spring. When asked to describe what it was like to follow the Loons on White Bear Lake from May through last week, a few words come to mind: anticipation, disappointment, entertainment, and optimism. The 2018 Ice Out was not until the first week in May and made nesting difficult for the birds and ducks around the lake. Schedules and biological clocks were turned upside down. The Loons frantically searched for a suitable nesting site, but the elevated lake level, combined with the reduced habitat, increased boat traffic and predators, made their mission almost impossible. On June 9, we watched the Loon parents finally select their nesting site, build the nest, and lay two eggs in less than 15 hours. Unfortunately, the turtles snapped up both eggs a few days later. We continued to follow the shell-shocked Loon parents, hoping that they would try again. No such luck. Fortunately, the rafting bachelors kept us entertained while they partied, fished, and tested each other with their quirky and hilarious behaviors. We also think our 2016 celebrity chick may have returned. DNR Loon expert Lori Naumann confirmed that it was, indeed, possible that our chick had found its way back to White Bear Lake as chicks often return to their natal lakes two to three years post hatch. The Loons have yet to use the manmade nest that Len launched in 2016. We have some ideas about relocating it and acquiring a second nest in a platform design. Over the winter, we hope to come up with a new plan to maximize hatch potential on the lake. Hats off to the Loons who tried so hard. Everyone hopes that 2019 will be their year!”

FOUNDATION: Raising Lyme awareness FROM PAGE 1A
There was a time Lisa couldn't get out of bed. It was 2010 and the couple and their two children had moved to Connecticut to be closer to Pete's work. The former pro football player-turned-investment-analyst was commuting to New York City for CNBC. Bedridden with migraine headaches and vertigo, Lisa didn't know what was wrong. "I could hardly move," she recalled. "I remember standing in front of the kids and wondering what was going on with me. I said to them: 'You guys don't understand. I have worms in my brain trying to get out.' That is what it felt like. It took a really long time to get my brain intact." Najarian believes she was bitten by an infected deer tick years earlier when living in Chicago. She was an avid gardener but unfamiliar with Lyme. She doesn't know if she had the telltale target rash. Her fi rst of many symptoms was hearing loss and tinnitus. Then came the vertigo, migraines, arthritis and heart palpitations. She visited one specialist after another, but the Lyme went undiagnosed. Finally, in 2015 a blood test proved positive for Lyme. By then the Najarians had moved to Minnesota to be closer to family. Pete's father is Dr. John Najarian, the world-renowned transplant surgeon, now 91 years old and in a memory care facility. Pete was a linebacker for the Minnesota Gophers and went on to play for Tampa Bay and the Vikings, retiring in '92. He hosts a TV show called “Fast Money” and still commutes to the Big Apple, only now it's from Minnesota. The state is the country's No. 2 hotspot for Lyme, according to Lisa. Almost 145,000 Minnesotans have tested positive for the bacterium in the last 10 years and the number is growing. There are more Lyme cases reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention than hepatitis C, colon cancer, HIV and breast cancer, she added. Well versed in the disease, Najari-

an reminds people that Lyme is often misdiagnosed. "It is called 'the great imitator' for a reason," she said. "Lyme can mimic symptoms of many diseases. If left undetected and untreated, Lyme may advance into a much more insidious disease. Fifty percent of people who live with Lyme don't know they have the disease." That's where the foundation comes in. The Najarians are working to raise money to assist in getting a diagnosis. An assessment tool on the website is the fi rst step. Symptomatic visitors are invited to answer questions online before a determination is made directing them to a Lyme-literate physician for a two-hour consultation. Funding for the patient is paid up to the point of diagnosis. The cost is about $1,000. There are already 250 people waiting in the queue, noted Lisa, who gets at least a half dozen emails a day from people looking for help. As for her lifestyle, Lisa focuses on wellness, with help from her daughter Alexis, who majored in "mind, body and soul," as her dad describes it, from the University of Nebraska. She is a fitness nutrition specialist and maintains a website called Nutrifit by Lex. Her daughter holds her "accountable," Lisa said, as she focuses on a gluten-free diet, stress reduction and sleep, all critical aspects of her health regimen in addition to longterm antibiotics. The Lyme bacteria is embedded in her system, Lisa said, and can be fatal. "It will take a really long time for me to be asymptomatic," she added. "We hope it will happen. "In other parts of the country there is more familiarity with Lyme," Lisa maintained. "Symptoms are easily recognized by doctors who are trained in proper detection and can successfully diagnose the infection. We're hoping to bring that awareness and common practice to Minnesota."

Support group near, dear to her heart BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR
A White Bear Lake heart disease survivor is set on becoming an advocate for women's heart health. It's Jean Fusco's obligation after she became a WomenHeart Champion. The title is bestowed on women who graduate from a Mayo Clinic program called Science and Leadership Symposium sponsored by the National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease. The program trains women to educate others about heart disease, the No. 1 killer of women. Fusco's graduating class of 49 joins more than 850 volunteers from across the country who give back to other female heart disease survivors in their communities through education, advocacy and social and emotional support. Fusco's goal is to lead a support group for women in the area by February, Heart Month; something she could not find in her journey with heart disease. Born with a small hole in her heart called an atrial septal defect, Fusco also had a tricuspid valve displacement. “That means I had a leaky heart valve,” Fusco explained. “By the time it was found, I had four kids, and had run a marathon. It was 2013 and I was 43.” A visit to a primary care doctor for an orthopedic referral — Fusco wanted orthotics for her running shoes — eventually led to the discovery of her congenital heart defects and more, pulmonary hypertension. It wasn't good. “My blood pressure was dangerously low, so I was sent to the University of Minnesota for an echocar-
diogram,” Fusco recalled. “The doctor there told me I had a small hole but was 'fine.' I told him I didn't feel well and couldn't run. He told me maybe I was getting old. I didn't like that explanation.” A second opinion at the Minneapolis Heart Institute led to more tests by an interventional cardiologist. That specialist told Fusco she had a serious problem and needed open-heart surgery. “I had the surgery, but I never felt great after that. He closed the hole and repaired the valve. Two years later it was leaking profusely again, and I had congestive heart failure. So I saw a different surgeon and had to have a second open-heart surgery.” Desperate to find other women with similar experiences, Fusco, now divorced, started looking for female support groups. There was nothing local. “I felt like no one would understand the magnitude of two open-heart surgeries except someone who had it themselves,” Fusco said. “I almost died the second time. You can suffer memory loss after the surgery and have other issues. You are on a bypass machine; your heart isn't pumping for four to six hours. People can't relate to that. They don't understand what happens to mind and body.” After months of searching, Fusco was connected to the WomenHeart office in Washington, D.C. She learned about the Mayo symposium and decided to go through the interview process. She was accepted. “It's an honor to represent WomenHeart and be part of a mission to raise awareness about heart disease in women,” Fusco said. “As a survivor, I know the importance of having a strong support system and I want to be there for women in need. This is some-

thing I understand dearly. Heart surgery changes you. Your outlook on life changes. You are never the same, like someone who survives cancer.” Fusco hopes to educate and support women in the White Bear Lake area using tools she learned at the Mayo symposium. Her class hailed from 18 states and ranged in age from 26 to 74. The four-day seminar, all expenses paid, is led by Mayo Clinic's world-class cardiologists, as well as experts in health policy, advocacy and communications. Trainees, all heart disease survivors, are taught how to increase awareness about heart disease in women, run support groups and learn about lifestyle, diet and meditative techniques to reduce stress. The symposium began in 2002 as the nation's only volunteer program training women to support other women heart patients and lead the fight against heart disease.

LOOKING BACK Week of November 4 – 10, 2018 Culled from the archives of the White Bear Press at the resource library of the White Bear Lake Area Historical Society. 1918 The engagement is announced of Miss Stella Vardon, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Vardon, to Lieut. Reginald W. Norris, of the Royal Air Force, whose home is in Devon, England. 1943 The results of the next ten days will determine whether or not White Bear Lake will have a modern frozen food locker plant before the end of the war. Practically everything that is necessary to build a locker plant is critical war material, but, because of the world food situation, the War Food Administration and the War Production Board have made it possible for a limited number of them to be built where there is a real need and demand for them. 1968 The School Board, at their meeting last Monday evening, gave approval to a site recommended for the new south jr. high school. The area of approximately 42 acres of land under consideration is bounded by lots abutting White Bear Ave. on the west, lots abutting Buckbee Road on the east, Elm Drive on the north and Orchard Lane on the south. 1993 Holly, carolers and holiday good cheer will fi ll downtown White Bear

or most of us, checkups are a regular part of life. Dental visits, auto maintenance appointments and even glances in the bathroom mirror all help us monitor performance, catch potential problems and assure us that all is – or will be – well. What’s true of teeth, engines and grooming is also true of finances: regular checkups are recommended. Why? Changes both great and small affect the strategies people have developed to help achieve their financial goals. Unfortunately, too many people act as though Nick Rasmussen once their financial plan is in place their work is Financial Consultant done. But this isn’t the case. As a general rule, professionals recommend you review your financial plan and strategies at least once each year. Certain life changes – the birth or adoption of a child, a change in marital status (married, divorced or widowed), the death of a family member or changes to your health – should serve as reminders that a financial tune-up is in order. Other changes in personal economics can also have a huge impact on financial goals and decisions you need to make. These may include shifts in employment status or salary (e.g. loss of job or a pay increase or pay cut), home ownership changes, significant changes in total assets or debt, the receipt of an inheritance and tax law changes that can all make previous strategies obsolete. There have been numerous law changes over that past few years. Some of these changes t s i include rule changes to 529 L k Chec college savings plans, social t n e o in t m p security changes, federal p A r. ✓ D income tax rate and deduction e ang modifications, limits to ✓ Oil Ch ent retirement accounts such 401k p o in t m p A t ✓ De n t is and Health Savings Account, t n u lt a federal and Minnesota estate l C ons ia c n a ✓ Fin tax gifting and exemption amount changes.

However, most can benefit from the knowledge, experience and insight that financial services professionals can offer. Qualified financial professionals can help people evaluate their present financial strategies and stay current on new laws, regulations, products and economic developments. Even more important, financial professionals can challenge the unrealistic assumptions that people may have and help them overcome money management’s greatest threat: procrastination. To live is to experience change. How and when change will appear is impossible to predict, but a financial checkup is one sure way to help your financial objectives – and your sense of financial confidence – keeps pace with all that occurs.

Magic moment: Mahtomedi girls repeat as state champs shot went off Megan, so she got that save,” Lisowy said. Coach Wald, asked how the Zephyrs kept pulling out close tournament games over two years, said, “They work. That’s the biggest thing. You need to outwork the other team. You need to earn it.” Zephyrs named to the all-tournament team were seniors Meyer and Grace Padelford and juniors Lauren Heinsch and Sexson. Meyer and Sexson also made all-tournament last year. Heinsch, who led the Zephyrs with 18 goals, knocked in both in the semifi nal win over Holy Angels, each with Meyer assisting, against a team that had shut out 16 of 20 opponents. Both goals came in the fi rst half. Gia Aleman got a 33-yard free kick past Lisowy in the second half. The Zephyrs were 4-4 at one point this year after a tough stretch of close losses against strong Class 4A teams but lost only one more, to Hill-Murray 2-0, and avenged that one 3-2 in the section fi nals on a late goal by Sydney Panek. At state, they beat Bemidji 5-0 and Holy Angels 2-1 to reach the fi nals. The Zephyrs now have a 33-6 record in 16 state tourney appearances, with titles in 1997, 1999, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2017 and 2018.

if her own team had scored. “I was just in awe of her,” said Mahtomedi goalie Megan Lisowy. “Her hands were like glue! She just would not fumble the ball and she didn’t look nervous at all.” But Meyer’s delivery 2:36 into the second 10-minute OT was impossible to stop even for Gagne. Mahtomedi nearly won it in the fi rst OT on a bullet by Audrey Sexson but that one hit the right post. Orono had a flurry of three shots in the fi rst OT that didn’t connect. Zephyr goalie Lisowy weathered two particularly anxious moments keeping Orono off the scoreboard.
She had to leap with all her might to snag a well-struck 35-yard free kick by Orono late in the second half. “The only goal I gave up against Holy Angels was like that. I knew I had to drop back a little farther so that didn’t happen again,” she said. In overtime, she was knocked off her feet and an Orono player got free to fi re a shot. Fortunately, Clements got in front of the net. “The

What young athlete has not envisioned that magical moment when he/she delivers the shot or home run or touchdown to win the state championship? Well, Sonia Meyer actually did it last week. Meyer’s blast from 20 yards broke up a scoreless tie in the 93rd minute, giving her Mahtomedi Zephyrs a 1-0 verdict over the Orono Spartans and their second straight Class A state soccer championship. “It was tough to fi nd shots today, but that one was set up perfectly,” reflected Meyer at U.S. Bank Stadium, right around noon Friday. A strong throw-in by Megan Clements got that play going. Mackenzie Mirault tried to play it, but wasn’t in the right position. “Then the ball just sat there and I thought, ‘OK, that’s my chance!’” said Meyer, who wasted no time and crushed the ball, sending it past an outstanding Spartan goalie and into the top corner of the net. It took a couple seconds to sink in. “I thought, 'Oh, my gosh!' And everybody was hugging me and screaming — and then I knew we won (laughing). People were saying, 'Thank you so much!’ “And I was crying, and I couldn’t tell if they were happy tears or sad because it was my last game for Mahtomedi. But it means so much, especially being a senior.” That was Meyer’s 10th goal of the season, fourth-best on the team. “She isn’t that high on the stats overall, but she is a big-game player,” said coach Dave Wald, recalling how Meyer also heated up during the playoffs in last year’s state title run. The top-seeded Zephyrs (15-5-1) claimed their eighth state championship in nine trips to the fi nals, moving them one ahead of Wayzata for most in girls soccer. Wayzata has seven in Class AA, and lost to Minnetonka 1-0 in the fi nals Friday. Mahtomedi also beat Orono in last year’s fi nals, 2-1. This time, they snapped a 14-game win streak by the Spartans (18-3-1). Before Meyer’s goal, it was a fierce defensive tussle remindful of Shakespeare’s line about “two spent swimmers that do cling together and choke their art.” The Zephyrs were especially frustrated — and amazed — by Orono goalkeeper Clare Gagne, who made some spectacular saves, and would have posted her 38th career shutout
Cooper Anderson, White Bear Lake senior quarterback, passed for 1,305 yards this season, completing 96 of 173 attempts (55 percent). He had 12 touchdown passes against 11 interceptions. Anderson was also the punter with a 34.4 yard average with a knack for aiming the ball to avoid returns. In the spring, he has been the Bear tennis team’s No. 1 singles player since 9th grade.

Mountain bike racers a hit at halftime BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR
Teenage mountain bike racers Ian Hase and Chihiro Gustafson were mulling recently if there was a way to show a big audience how much fun their sport is to watch. Gustafson suggested a race between the two of them at halftime of a football game. It just happened that their respective high schools, White Bear Lake and Mounds View, had a game coming up at White Bear Lake on Wednesday, Oct. 17. “Ian told me one day, ‘Hey, we should do something to put the Minnesota High School Cycling League on the map,’ ” said Gustafson. “I had been thinking of doing some sort of event for the past four years but never acted on it. Ian gave me the push to go and present the idea.” Activities directors Brian Peloquin and Jim Galvin, respectively, were “super on board,” he said, and gave the boys support and resources. So the race was on, and it proved to be quite a hit — both with fans attending the game and on social media in the aftermath. Their two-lap (half-mile) race was fast, furious, and very close, with each school’s rooting gallery rising enthusiastically to cheer them on, clearly enjoying the unusual halftime entertainment. Hase, of White Bear Lake, pulled forward at the end to edge his friend from Mounds View. They proceeded to pedal another lap with hands clasped in a

“V” to celebrate the moment. “It was a resounding success,” proclaimed Mark Weinberger, White Bear Lake’s cycling coach. “The crowd, and especially the student section, were cheering like crazy.” Weinberger called it a “brilliant” concept that the kids “hatched on their own,” contacting the ADs, figuring out a format, and spreading the word out to students. The race was video-taped by the Minnesota High School Cycling League, which also provided its veteran announcer Jason Czeskleba to call the race and whip up the crowd.
The video had around 80,000 views on Facebook, and a large amount of shares, as of Oct. 29. Hase also wrote a detailed press release on the event with the skill of a seasoned public relations writer. Bruce Martins, a trainer with the National Center for Youth Development, wrote a Facebook post calling the event “revolutionary.” He added that when the MHSCL started seven years ago, they were inundated with calls from football coaches concerned about losing their athletes, so he was impressed that Hase and Gustafson were able to collaborate with a football game to take a big
step in “making high school cycling a legitimate scholastic sport.” The White Bear Lake club team, in its fifth season, has 24 members (20 boys, four girls), up from 13 last year and 10 the year before. Hase is the varsity captain and Tehya Daniels is the JV captain. Kids need a helmet, cycling gloves, a team jersey which they keep, and a quality bike. They are one of 65 teams in the state. Competing on Sundays, they started in late August with a meet in Austin, followed by meets in Rochester, River Falls (WI), Duluth and the finale Oct. 27-28 with 1,500 riders, the Mount Kato State Championships in Mankato. At Mankato, White Bear Lake finished 23rd and Mounds View 28th of 40 teams in Division 2. Hase placed 26th and Gustafson 28th among 52 in the varsity race. Bennet Fischer of Mahtomedi was 25th. Also for White Bear Lake, Daniels was 9th of 25 in JV3 girls and Patrick Levins 18th of 109 in D1 freshman boys. Hase — who has a job fixing bikes at Chilkoot Cyclery and Cafe in Stillwater, while Gustafson works at CARs Bike Shop in Mounds View — had this to say about the Minnesota High School Cycling League: “The league’s mission is More Kids on Bikes. The league helps a lot of kids, who would usually not be in sports, compete and find a sense of community,” he stated. “The core values of the league include inclusiveness, equality, strong body, strong mind, and strong character.”
BUSINESS BRIEFS opment, client relations and commercial banking. Most recently, he served as an executive vice president and chief credit officer (CCO). In 2014, he earned his diploma from the Graduate School of Banking at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Clients from Merrick are employed in six Kowalski’s Markets, including locations in White Bear Lake and Shoreview.

The partnership began in 2000 with a Merrick crew at the Kowalski’s Woodbury location, and today the grocer employs 28 people with disabilities across six of its stores. Some are direct hires and others are on work crews. At the markets, clients from Merrick bag groceries, clean cafés, stock shelves and work behind the scenes in the delis and kitchens.

Entira decided to consolidate the White Bear Lake-Bellaire Avenue and Maplewood Battle Creek clinics into a nearby clinic location. “Our clinics have served our communities well, but we have decided due to needing more space and our leases ending that this is the best solution for our patients and our staff. We want our patients to know that our commitment to provide them with the same quality of care will continue, no matter the clinic to which each provider relocates,” said Len Kaiser, chief administrative officer at Entira. The following provider changes were implemented Monday, Nov. 5, at the Maplewood/Battle Creek clinic and the White Bear Lake-Bellaire clinic: Jeanne Anderson, MD, relocated to North St. Paul; Cynthia Frane, MD, relocated to Shoreview; and Bruce Leppink, MD and Matthew Monteiro, MD will split time at the Shoreview and Vadnais Heights clinics.

Proceeds from hat sales will be used to purchase hair products for food shelves.
beKIND Salon teams up with Love YOUR Melon Salon owner Alan Fackler has teamed up with local Minnesota company Love YOUR Melon this holiday season to create a custom beKIND hat. Proceeds will be used to purchase a large amount of quality shampoo and conditioner for local food shelves. “Shampoo and conditioner is one of the most requested items at local food shelves, and customers typically end up with lowgrade, unhealthy, poor-quality products,” Fackler said. “It is our mission this holiday season to donate a large amount of products.” Love YOUR Melon has approved a custom hat that beKIND will sell to make these goals possible, Fackler added. “It is a beautiful hat that we are very excited about, and we will have a goal of selling at least 200 hats, which will make our goals come to life.” The salon, located at 2479 County Road E East in White Bear Lake, is currently taking pre-orders for arrival by Christmas.

Fun Fact
There are more stars in space than there are grains of sand on every beach in the world.
Unless you or someone you know has struggled with severe injury, chronic pain, or degenerative disease, it’s dif cult to understand the impact it can have on life. But if you struggle with chronic pain, you know its debilitating effects. You’ve likely given up hobbies, family activities, and travel in your efforts to control pain and maintain functionality. Unfortunately, until now, the only treatment options for these types of conditions have been surgery or addictive pain killers, which often have unwelcome side effects. But recent advances in medical technology may offer advanced, effective relief. K-Laser, a state-of-the-art, Class IV laser therapy, has been found to penetrate tissue and initiate healing on a cellular level, even allowing some patients to return to normal, everyday activities with little to no pain.
IMAGINE A DAY WITH NO PAIN
Dr. Dustin Carlson D.C., of White Bear Lake, has offered K-Laser treatments in his practice since 2016 and con rms these ndings. “I’m thrilled with the outcome of K-Laser therapy. I’m now able to provide holistic, natural treatment for conditions that previously required invasive treatment or heavy medications with no promise of real relief.” His patients are happy as well. Here are a few of the responses he has heard: “I can hardly express the relief I have received from one treatment.” ~retired ER nurse, 25 years of chronic lower back pain “This was dramatic pain relief! I began gardening again and using my treadmill for exercise.” ~67-year-old with debilitating knee pain “I can’t believe the difference it is making. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” ~arthritic hip patient
THE SECRET IS LIGHT ENERGY
K-Laser, also known as High Power Laser Therapy, targets damaged tissue with speci c wavelengths of light that have
been found to interact with tissue and accelerate the healing process. Much like photosynthesis in plants, light energy passes through the skin, into the cell membrane, initiating a process called photobiostimulation. This process enhances the body’s natural regenerative functions, as well as stimulating the release of endorphins and collagen. It may eventually even normalize damaged or injured tissue. The result? Accelerated wound healing, as well as reduced pain, stiffness, swelling, and spasms. As the injured area returns to normal, function is restored, so patients may take their life back and resume their favorite hobbies and activities. CONDITIONS TREATED WITH K-LASER High power laser therapy can stimulate all cell types, including soft tissue, ligaments, cartilage, and nerves. Some conditions that have been shown to respond well to K-Laser include: • Peripheral Neuropathy, Fibromyalgia • Back and Neck Pain • Sciatic Pain • Arthritis pain, Degenerative Discs/Joints • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome • Knee Problems • Tendinitis, Trigger Fingers • Bunion Pains, Plantar Fasciitis • Sprains and/or Strains • Bruises, Contusions, Burns • Headaches, TMJ, Sinus Trouble • Athletic Injuries • Work-Related and Auto Injuries
RESULTS MAY EVEN BE SEEN AFTER 1 TREATMENT
Many patients report pain relief in as little as one treatment, and most are able to resume normal daily activities with no pain and restricted movement after their therapy is completed.

BREAKTHROUGH MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY OFFERS ADVANCED PAIN RELIEF
WEEKLY AVERAGES
Being an observational meteorologist, it tears at me to go out OCT. 24 - 30, 2018 of town for an extended period of time. I’m always worried High 54° I’m going to miss some weather event. This past week I was Low 36° in California, suffering in 90º heat! and sunny skies. I know you’re thinking how great that would be, considering the light %Sun 48% snow that fell on Saturday. Well let me tell you, I’d rather PCP 0.54” have been home. The changing of the seasons in Minnesota is one of the things I enjoy most about Minnesota. When I miss something, even something as minor as a snowfall, it bothers me. Plus I was to meet up for the Badger game in Madison this past Saturday. My old college roommates sent me a few pictures of the snow-covered field. Grrrr! Oh well, I’m back now. It’s good to be home.
Steve Donohue, Asst. Athletic Trainer of the N.Y. Yankees, reports, “We use the K-Laser both on acute and chronic conditions, such as bruises, contusions and tendinitis. We ice and then use the laser, and players seem to respond quicker. It’s a hot item in the training room. The guys line up for it!” More than 1200 studies conducted over 40 years worldwide have shown the powerful therapeutic bene ts of high power laser therapy. Findings include: • Acute Pain: diminished more than 70%, chronic pain more than 60% • Chronic Low Back Pain: treatment effective in 71% of cases; pain eliminated completely in 45% • Wounds: 55% greater healing on day 8, as compared to the placebo group • Knee Injury: improved knee exion and pressure sensitivity after every treatment
NOW AVAILABLE IN WHITE BEAR LAKE!
Are you a candidate for K-Laser therapy? For a limited time, Dr. Dustin Carlson D.C. is offering a complementary visit valued at $75. “If you suffer from chronic pain, laser therapy may give you your life back. You owe it to yourself to try the advanced treatment options that are now available. I truly believe K-Laser can make a difference. My hope is that everyone who needs it will at least give it a try,” said Dr. Dustin Carlson D.C. To take advantage of this special offer, call 651-762-8040 before 11/23/18. 3/15/18. Clinic hours are 8:00am and 6:00pm, Monday through Friday. Tell the receptionist you’d like to come in for the “K-Laser Evaluation.” Sincerely,

Treatments are administered by a technician, using a hand-held device the size of a ashlight. The laser is placed directly over the injured area for anywhere from 30 seconds to 9 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated and the treatment plan. Most patients report a warm, relaxing sensation. They generally experience no side effects or recovery period.

THE GOAL IS HEALING, NOT MERELY SYMPTOM RELIEF
