WHAT HAPPENED
• At about 4:42 pm on Saturday, Aug. 22, the Door County Sheriff’s Office was notified of a one-vehicle personal injury crash at the intersection of Hwy. 42 and County E in the Village of Egg Harbor. The vehicle was westbound on E and failed to stop at the stop sign at Hwy 42. The vehicle crossed the highway and entered the driveway at 7901 Hwy 42 where it struck a building. The lone female driver was extricated from the vehicle with a severe leg injury. She was transported to Door County Medical Center by ambulance and then flown by helicopter to St. Vincent’s Hospital in Green Bay, where she died. The driver was identified as Roberta Nauman, 79, of Elgin, Ill. The sheriff’s office continues its investigation. • Governor Scott Walker approved $475,000 to build a new single-span concrete deck bridge on Hwy. 42 between County X and County J in the Village of Forestville. Work is scheduled to begin Monday, Aug. 31, and finish by the end of October. Pheifer Brothers Construction Company, Inc., Neenah, is the prime contractor. This project involves removing the existing box culvert and replacing it with a new bridge, better meeting current standards for vehicle loading and structure design. Work also includes curb and gutter, storm sewer and pavement marking. Hwy. 42 will be closed between County X and County J for the entire project. The detour is County X, County D, and County J. Local access will be maintained on each side of the bridge.

• Ongoing surveillance efforts this summer found no new evidence of Asian carp in the Milwaukee and Fox rivers as part of work completed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in cooperation with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. USFWS biologists tested 160 water samples collected across three
sampling dates in May and June for genetic evidence of silver and bighead carp. None of the samples tested positive for Asian carp DNA. Bob Wakeman, DNR’s aquatic invasive species program coordinator, said the testing represents an important tool in the ongoing effort to prevent the spread of silver and bighead carp into the Great Lakes. Asian carp pose significant ecological and economic threats to the Great Lakes region and its fishery because they eat voraciously and compete directly with valuable native fish for food. “We certainly appreciate the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service conducting this monitoring and giving us this good news,” Wakeman said. “The continued negative results reinforce other findings that positive detections in 2013 near Sturgeon Bay and 2014 in the Fox River near Green Bay were likely from sources other than live fish.”
COMING UP • Have You Ever Had Polio? is the theme of a program, sponsored by the Rotary Club Door County North. The presentation will be held Wednesday, Sept. 2, at the Immanuel Lutheran Church, Bailey’s Harbor ,beginning at 7:45 am. Bob and Mary Williams, and Terrill Arnold from Stevens Point, are the presenters. Bob, Mary and Terrill have given this program to raise awareness about post-polio syndrome to 18 Rotary Clubs in Wisconsin and Northern Michigan. It is estimated that 20,000 people are polio survivors in Wisconsin. It is, also, estimated that 50 percent of those survivors will contract post-polio syndrome. Only polio survivors contract postpolio syndrome. If you are a polio survivor, the syndrome may cripple you or cause a polio-like illness even though you had polio many years ago. As Bob Williams, a polio survivor and person with post-polio syndrome, preaches “My exercise routine and periodic meetings with a physical therapist are the tools keeping me out of wheel chair.” This program is open to the public. Please call 920.839.5481 to make a reservation if you would like to attend this presentation. There is a nominal charge for breakfast. Rotary International has worked to eradicate polio from the world. It is the largest public health effort by any organization in the history of health care.

Board Kicks Building Projects Back to Committee Property Committee to reconsider options by JIM LUNDSTROM jim@ppulse.com
A
t its monthly meeting on Aug. 25, the Door County Board of Supervisors decided to send back to its Property Committee two big-ticket resolutions on funding for Phase III of the proposed Human Services Resource Center and the central ambulance station project – projects that amount to about $9 million. Resolution 2015-52 would have authorized funding for Phase III of the Human Services Resource Center, a $6.4 million project that would be paid for through $2 million worth of gifts, grants and donations, and the remaining $4.4 million coming from the county. However, the resolution also stipulated that authorization for Phase III of the project was contingent upon receiving $1 million in donations by Sept. 1, a goal that has not been met. Resolution 2015-59 would have authorized the beginning of Phase III of the $2.7 million ambulance project, a 14,370 square foot building to replace the current 4,594 square foot building on space leased from the hospital. County Board Chair Dan Austad announced that Richard Virlee had assumed the chair of the property committee when former chair Ben Meyer resigned from his county board position on Aug. 13, and that Virlee had called a special meeting of the Property Committee for the morning of Aug. 27 to take another look at these two building projects in light of several developments. Austad said one of those developments concerning the ambulance station is that more county board members are thinking the new station should be located on property the county owns rather than on property leased from Ministry Door County Medical Center, as the current arrangement is. Corporation Counsel Grant Thomas pointed out that the hospital has shown “zero interest” in selling the piece of land the county is considering for the county ambulance headquarters. Austad also said the Property Committee will be taking a look at options for the old highway shop at John Miles County Park on 14th Street, such as whether to tear it down or consider converting it into another use. Austad said this is an opportunity “to step back, take a deep breath and consider everything again.” We’ll have details on what takes place

at the Property Committee in next week’s Pulse. This was the first county board meeting attended by new County Administrator Ken Pabich, which means Interim County Administrator Grant Thomas is now back to his regular job as Corporation Counsel. The board recognized Thomas with a resolution thanking him for taking on the role of interim county administrator for a second time, a task that Thomas said was made much easier with the 30-some dedicated and talented department heads who “go above and beyond the call of duty” in making county government run. The board also recognized two recently resigned county supervisors – Holly Runquist, who represented the Town of Gibraltar and the Village of Ephraim, and Ben Meyer, who represented the Sturgeon Bay wards 1, 2 and 29 – for their work on the county board. Austad also pointed out that he has received only one application to fill Meyer’s remaining term on the board and no applicants for Runquist’s seat. Residents living in those districts who are interested in being appointed to the appropriate seat are invited to submit a letter of interest to County Board Chair Dan Austad in care of the County Administrator, 421 Nebraska St., Sturgeon Bay, 54235, or email lholtz@co.door.wi.us. Letters of interest must be received by 4 pm on Aug. 28. The board also heard from Rhonda Kolberg, director of the county’s Public Health Department, and Public Health Nurse Mary Ellen Smith, who recently was recognized with the Cornelia Van Kooy Award for distinguished service in Public Health Nursing. Kolberg nominated Smith for the prestigious award from the Public Health Nursing Section of the Wisconsin Public Health Association. Zoning Administator Sue VandenLangenberg gave a brief explanation of some permit rate changes from the Planning Department as a result of the last-minute shoreland zoning changes that were inserted into the recently passed state budget, which created another unfunded state-mandated program. “These fees are to establish the review or permit process, which we previously did not need before the budget,” she said. The new fees include $1,000 for a Shoreland Mitigation Permit that includes a Storm Water Runoff Con-
TOWN OF CLAY BANKS 920.746.9617 597 Lower LaSalle Rd. Algoma, WI 54201 Clerk: Jessica Bongle sjbongle@dcwis.com
trol Plan for impervious surfaces. In order to encourage compliance with the permit system, the Resource Planning Committee set up a series of payments for violation of permits, with the first violation requiring a doubling of the permit fee. VandenLangenberg explained that since the Planning Department is not versed in stormwater runoff, it has had to team up with the department that does handle runoff issues – the Soil and Water Conservation Department. Department head Bill Schuster said the Planning Department has done the calculations and expects the two departments will be dealing with a lot of these permits, so in order to make it a sustaining program, the fee schedule was necessary, although he pointed out two other options – a new tax levy to offset the cost of the program or set up an independent contractor and charge back the fees for service to the owners. “We can’t take money from other programs for this,” he said. Before the resolution went to a vote, Supervisor David Enigl said, “We can thank our legislators for adding something to the budget that should not have been there.” The new fee schedule passed on a 16-3 vote. The board also approved $120,000 to come out of the unassigned fund balance to pay for new Imagecast Evolution Voting Systems. Door County Clerk Jill Lau said the voting machines are basically computers that have outlived their useful life. There was to originally be a 5050 cost share with municipalities throughout the county, but it was decided the county would pay for the machines and the municipalities would be responsible for everything else, which includes software licensing, warranty costs and maintenance fees. The board also approved a resolution that establishes a 45 mph speed limit on a 6/10 of a mile stretch of County WD leading up to Whitefish Dunes State Park. The county board also discussed funding for the sister city program with Jingdezhen, China. While the funding was approved, several supervisors reminded the board that the program was introduced in 2004 as something that would not cost county taxpayers a cent.

Northern Door Stresses State Strengths Environment and budget comprise most concerns at listening session by JACKSON PARR
T
here was a small attendance for Joel Kitchens at his listening session in the Gibraltar Town Hall on Aug. 25, fluctuating between eight and 12 people during the 90-minute meeting. Kitchens fielded questions focused on everything from local to federal issues. Topics included budget cuts, groundwater protection, school voucher programs, immigration, and the resurfacing of Hwy. 42. A freshman in the assembly, Kitchens first answered the frequently asked question of what it is like to be in the assembly. “The part that the public sees, the part when we’re on the floor, to me, is the least important because it’s really almost theater,” he said. “It’s behind the scenes in getting support for what you want done, I think that’s really where I’ve made a difference and those are the things the public just doesn’t see.” Making the point that he strays from his party on many issues including education and environment, an audience member asked Kitchens why the state was cutting funding to these areas, which comprise some of Wisconsin’s greatest strengths. The question referenced the $250 million budget cut to the University of Wisconsin (UW) system and the 55 positions cut at the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR). “Most all areas were cut,” said Kitchens. “I certainly fought to get money put back in education and to make the cuts in the least painful way possible. One of the real frustrations of this job is that it’s so difficult for me to find out the truth.” Kitchens explained that following the proposed cuts to the UW system, he spoke with the Rebecca Blank, chancellor at UW-Madison, who told him that the only reason the cuts were hard was because of the short timeline they were given. She believed that they could find savings down the line with the autonomy given by Governor Walker. “But then in public she would make the statement saying, ‘Oh my god it’s going to end UW as we know it’,” said Kitchens. Similarly, at the DNR, which employs more than 4,000 people, Kitchens did not feel cutting 55 positions was as detrimental as it is made out to be.
“Any time you make any cut, you get demonized from the other side that you don’t care about the environment, you don’t care about education,” he said. Kitchens felt this demonizing is what encourages last-minute changes to the state budget, which caused conflict in the budget Governor Walker signed this year. Wayne Kudick of Fish Creek then turned the topic to groundwater protection, which his family in Kewaunee County frequently struggles with. “I haven’t seen one request for an expansion of a farm… that has been questioned,” said Kudick. “They’ve all been approved. So the growth pattern is there.” Kudick’s family lives in Ellisville, in central Kewaunee County. “This township, we wrote our 20-year master plan in 2004 and you know what the top three priorities were?” he lifted up his hand and flexed his fingers one by one. “Water. The second one was water. And you know what the third one was? That was water!” Kitchens responded saying that a task force was created by the DNR to address the water concerns in Kewaunee County with an $80,000 budget. With this money, they will look at short-term fixes such as individual water treatment technology for homes before the long-term solutions such as large water treatment facilities and digesters, which can neutralize the harms of excess manure. Don Freix of Fish Creek proposed a moratorium on Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) until the technology caught up. This same proposal was brought up at Kitchens’ Feb. 27 listening session in Sturgeon Bay earlier this year, which he stated, “would have zero chance of succeeding.” “I do think that it’s way simplistic to think that the large farms are the cause of all the problems that we have,” said Kitchens. “I’d hate for people to just blame them and think that these other farms don’t cause problems. It’s not the CAFOs that are spreading manure in the winter time, which is when we get the biggest problems because it runs off into our streams.” Dick Skare, chair of the Gibraltar Town Board and owner of The Cookery restau-
rant in Fish Creek, brought concerns about restricting small businesses ability to grow, which led to discussion about immigration policies. “Immigration obviously is a federal issue and not a state issue,” said Kitchens. “I wish that the federal government would come up with a realistic immigration policy. We have to have these people. I don’t like people coming in here illegally either but give them a legal way to do so.” An audience member then brought up the school voucher program, which Kitchens’ expressed disdain for. “I think there probably are areas where it is an advantage to those kids to give them some opportunities and I’ve accepted the fact that they’re not going to go away,” said Kitchens. “So what my focus has been on is making those schools accountable and slowing the expansion of them.” Kitchens is vice chair of the Committee on Education and expects to be appointed chair in the future. Being open about his disagreement with the voucher program, which is well-supported by his Republican party, “I think it speaks that they want someone with experience in education that’s willing to discuss these things and not really someone that toes the party line on that,” he said.
A Quieter Session in the City by Jim Lundstrom State Rep. Joel Kitchens’ Aug. 25 listening session at the Door County Library in Sturgeon Bay was a far cry from the packed room full of angry constituents that he faced when he held a listening session in late February while the state biennial budget was still being discussed. At most, 15 people showed up for the session, and most of the questions asked of Kitchens had already been answered by him at the earlier session he held the same morning in Gibraltar. However, he was asked to comment on Sturgeon Bay’s Westside Redevelopment project, which has caused so much turmoil in the city since last fall. Kitchens acknowledged that it is a difficult issue and that people on both sides wanted him to get involved, however he maintains that it is a local issue. “I’m not going to circumvent the democratic process,” he said. Regarding the issue of the proposed Lindgren Hotel being located on a filled lakebed, Kitchens
Turning to a hyper-local issue, an audience member asked about the timeline for the Hwy. 42 resurfacing project, which Kitchens discussed in relation to the unsustainable transportation fund that passed in the state budget. “I think that was one of the most disappointing parts of the budget and that’s why the budget took so long to get passed,” said Kitchens. He explained that Governor Walker proposed borrowing $1.2 billion in order to avoid raising the gas tax or imposing fees, a promise that was tailored more to a presidential run than the greater good of Wisconsin. “In the end we reached a compromise but unfortunately that means less money for the roads right now,” he said. “To make it worse, the projects like the zoo interchange in Milwaukee eat up most of that money so, yes, we are going to suffer on the local level.” Gas tax serves as the main revenue driver for the state’s transportation funds and with better gas mileage in vehicles, there is less money coming into the state coffers. Gibraltar was the first of four listening sessions that Kitchens planned for this post-budget season. On Sept. 1, he will be in Kewaunee and Luxemburg, with a session on Washington Island still being discussed.
said that is true of many properties in Sturgeon Bay, adding that he does not see this as an environmental issue. Asked if he still would have voted for the state budget if the open records ban that was added at the 11th hour would have remained in the budget, Kitchens reiterated his dismay for the open records addition to the budget and that he expressed his dismay to Republican leadership, as did many others, which led to the proposal being abandoned. “I think it was a huge mistake,” Kitchens said, and added that 60-some non-budgetary items were added to the budget, largely, he said, because of the extreme partisanship in the Legislature. He said some insert items into the budget because they know it will be an exercise in futility if they introduce the same items on the floor. “The way the budget process works, it really needs to change,” he said. Asked his opinion on raising minimum wage, Kitchens said in other areas of the country where it has been raised, it has cost jobs and business. He said he would rather see wages rise through a successful economy rather than an artificial and arbitrary raise.

OUR REPS Sturgeon Bay District to Join State Mental Health Initiative The Sturgeon Bay School District is one of 27 in the state to participate in the Wisconsin School Mental Health Project, a five-year project to improve students’ emotional well-being and mental health. “We’ve had an increase in the number of students and families dealing with mental health issues,” said Ann Smejkal, principal of Sturgeon Bay High School. “That isn’t something that typically fits into the training of a school teacher, so this is an opportunity to learn more about how we can support kids in the school system who are dealing with these problems.” Goals for the project are to train more school-community teams to develop policies, programs and practices that support students with mental health challenges and to integrate those activities into the schools’ existing behavior and discipline systems so they work together to improve the overall climate for student emotional wellbeing. In Wisconsin, it is estimated that one in five children and adolescents experience a significant mental health issue that impairs their functioning in the community, at home or in school. Symptoms of student mental health issues are wide ranging and can include behavioral outbursts, disengagement from friends and usual activities, problems with grades and school attendance, substance use and abuse, and thoughts or attempts of suicide. Wisconsin’s youth suicide rate is more than 30 percent higher than the national average. Among the young people with mental health challenges, it is estimated that in any given year a mere 20 percent to 30 percent receive the services they need. “I would say we have noticed a higher incidence, so we want to do the best we can to understand and support students’ emotional well-being because that affects their day-to-day school life,

so we have to understand what the circumstances are and how we can help them to be successful in school,” Smejkal said. “Certainly one of our highest goals is to engage our students so they feel safe and secure in school and are ready to learn. If there are barriers to that, we have to understand the barriers and find ways to support them. Free and appropriate education for all, means for all.” Smejkal said the mental health program coincides with the school’s Positive Behavior Intervention and Support (PBIS) program. “This was an opportunity to get some professional development and support through the state,” she said. “Some of our school staff will more than likely be involved in that training and we’ll disseminate it to the rest of the staff.” The professional development offered through the project will directly address students with high mental health needs while also supporting strategies that benefit all students. The professional development and technical assistance will • Promote the emotional well-being of all students; • Engage families as partners in supporting student emotional wellbeing; • Detect early warning signs of student mental health challenges and make effective referrals; • Provide effective services by school staff and community partners for youth with mental health needs; • Integrate mental health and emotional well-being work with PBIS; and • Use a “coaching model” provided by a school mental health consultant. The 27 districts were given the option of entering the program this year or next year. The Sturgeon Bay District chose to enter the program in the 2016 school year. “We’ve got a bunch of things we are working on that would tie in nicely, but we weren’t prepared to take on another initiative this year,” Smejkal said. “I think the state of Wisconsin is taking a positive step in addressing that mental health issues exist in the schools and they’re looking for ways to help school districts and creating an actual system for support.”

Governor Scott Walker China and international trade issues have become central to the 2016 presidential campaign, especially given that the country’s economic struggles precipitated Monday’s stock market dive. As he’s done with immigration, Walker moved to be the furthest right on China, releasing a statement calling for Obama to cancel Chinese president Xi Jinping’s upcoming state visit. “Given China’s massive cyber attacks against America, its militarization of the South China Sea, continued state interference with its economy, and persistent persecution of Christians and human rights activists, President Obama needs to cancel the state visit,” Walker said in the statement. But up until he emerged as a presidential contender, concerns about Chinese currency manipulation and human rights violations didn’t seem like a top priority for Walker. Throughout his governorship, Walker adopted rhetoric and policies that sought to build bridges and deepen relationships between China and Wisconsin – even though, according to one analysis, the Badger State lost more than 600,000 jobs during his tenure because of the growing Chinese trade deficit and the country’s currency manipulation. Source: thedailybeast.com Representative Reid Ribble Ribble announced a major victory in his push to reform our nation’s failed federal budget process through biennial budgeting. The Biennial Budgeting and Enhanced Oversight Act, H.R. 1610, which he introduced earlier this year, has gained broad support in the House of Representatives with a total of 202 co-sponsors from 49 states and both sides of the aisle. This support includes a majority of the House Budget Committee, a majority of the House Republican Majority, half of the House Rules Committee, and eight House committee chairmen. The bipartisan Senate companion legislation, the Biennial Budgeting and Appropriations Act (S. 150), is led by Senators Johnny Isakson (R-GA) and Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) and currently has 23 additional cosponsors. “America is a tremendous economic engine, and our federal budget needs consistency, reliability, and thorough oversight to function efficiently,” Ribble said. “By taking budgeting out of election years and forcing Congress to conduct budget oversight of federal agencies, we give agencies and businesses the stability they need and can finally begin to address the real drivers of our debt. I am proud of the support this sensible reform has received, and will continue to work to rein in our spending and get America’s fiscal house back in order.” Source: Ribble press release Senator Tammy Baldwin On Aug. 18, Baldwin joined in a celebration of the completion of the largest recreational and timber land conservation project in Wisconsin history. Protected under a working forest conservation easement, the Brule-St. Croix Legacy Forest preserves important natural resources, globally significant pine barrens habitat and a variety of recreational opportunities while maintaining sustainable timber operations that support local economies in Northwest Wisconsin. The Brule-St. Croix Legacy Forest success is due in large part to funding from the Wisconsin’s Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program and the U.S. Forest Service’s Forest Legacy Program through the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) – the federal program dedicated to the continued conservation and protection of America’s irreplaceable natural, historic, cultural and outdoor landmarks, which is set to expire on Sept. 30. “The Brule-St. Croix Legacy Forest delivers on our shared goals of environmental protection and sustainable economic growth and is an excellent example of why the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) is so important for Wisconsin. These investments in the Badger State have served as engines of growth for local economies that face economic challenges that require long-term solutions,” said Senator Baldwin. “That is why I’m

proud to cosponsor legislation to permanently reauthorize and fund the Land and Water Conservation Fund – strengthening one of the world’s most successful conservation programs, and ensuring our nation’s long lasting commitment to stewardship.” Senator Baldwin, a champion of conservation efforts in Wisconsin, helped introduce legislation to fund and permanently authorize the Land and Water Conservation Fund. Source: Baldwin press release Senator Ron Johnson Earlier this month, the National Journal, a nonpartisan political magazine, ranked Sen. Ron Johnson’s seat the second-most likely in the country to change parties in the coming election. The authors of the ranking cited the evergreen popularity of Democrat Russ Feingold, who’s running for the seat that Johnson took from him in 2010. They added that Johnson erred during the first phase of his term by focusing almost exclusively on issues like President Barack Obama’s health care law. A recent Marquette Law School Poll found Feingold leading Johnson 54 percent to 38 percent. “Wisconsinites still harbor warm feelings for Feingold, and he is undoubtedly a favorite to retake his old seat. Though Republicans say Johnson’s performance as a senator has improved greatly in the last year, the mistakes of his early tenure could still haunt his campaign,” they wrote. Source: National Journal President Barack Obama Vice President Joe Biden received President Barack Obama’s “blessing” to make a 2016 bid for the White House, according to a senior Democrat. But that’s if Biden chooses to run – the decision is his. While he doesn’t need the President’s permission, of course, a potential presidential candidacy was among the topics of their lunch Monday at the White House. The President made clear he would not stand in his way or counsel him against a run, the senior Democrat said. Source: CNN

Niles Weborg : Never Too Old to Fight Fires by JIM LUNDSTROM jim@ppulse.com
N
iles Weborg refers to how he came to spend 56 years and counting on the Ephraim Fire Department as “a nice little story.” “I was going with the fire chief’s daughter, and consequently, I wound up marrying her,” Weborg said. “I didn’t only get a wife, I got a fire department with it.” In July, Weborg retired after 34 years as chief of the department, but the 75-year-old isn’t ready to quit fighting fires just yet. “As long as I’m feeling well and am able to get around, hey, I’ll help where I can,” he said. “I turn 76 in February, but I feel good. The guys are now, ‘Niles, don’t you pull those hoses.’ They watch out for me a little bit. But it’s good to be with the boys and help them.” Besides, Weborg firmly believes no one is too old or too young for fire service. “There’s a job for everybody,” he said. “If I didn’t like what I was doing I wouldn’t be around this long. I’m an advocate for being a public servant to help people where I can. That’s why I’ve been here this long.” Between himself, his father-in-law, his late son Bill (who served as assistant fire chief when he died in the line of duty on Sept. 26, 2004), son Scotty and grandson Nick, there are 160 years of firefighting service from this dedicated and community-minded family. Weborg spent the first 19 years of his life in Gills Rock, where he learned the commercial fishing business from his family. “And the next 56 years I spent in Ephraim,” he said. Teenage Niles Weborg met Joan Sohns of Ephraim in school (Joan died on Aug. 1, 2008). Her father, William Sohns, had joined the Ephraim Fire Department, which was formed in 1930, when he was 18 years old. By 1957, when Niles was dating Joan, William Sohns was named chief of the department. He also owned one of the four grocery stores that were in Ephraim at the time. “I was helping him cut meat on the side because a fisherman can always handle a knife,” Weborg said. “He was supplying all the hamburger for Wilson’s. We cut 80 to 90 pounds of hamburger a day for Wilson’s. Needless to say, what he’d do all week, he’d hang up all the boning to be done for the weekend when I got there.” Joining his father-in-law’s fire department seemed a natural thing to do, so that is what 19-year-old Niles Weborg did in 1959. “I could see they could use some young blood in the department,” he said. “They did have a pretty good nucleus of guys at the time. What they had for a fire truck was the ’34 pumper that we have in the museum today.” The institutional history of the department naturally flowed to the new guy on the department. He knows that the 1934 Ford pumper truck – the first piece of licensed firefighting equipment in the county – and
the old fire station on Hwy. 42 that now serves as a museum and a home for the pumper were purchased and built for a little more than $7,000. “On my watch we have purchased seven pieces of apparatus – for a little more than $7,000,” Weborg said. “The last piece of equipment was a truck I bought in ’12, and that was $556,000. It will last a long time. We always say 20 years but I’m sure this truck will last longer than 20 years. It’s stainless steel. Beautiful truck. We had the Cadillac.” Besides the rising cost of firefighting equipment, Weborg said he has lived to see a greater sense of professionalism among volunteer firefighters. “The fire world has done a 180 on my watch. When I first started, there wasn’t

Photos by Len Villano. training. You trained with the people who were on the department,” he said. “Now you have to have 240 hours of training to be a full-fledged volunteer firefighter, this is taking you from entry-level classes to state certification. You can be a volunteer firefighter with entry-level qualifications, which allows you to don an air pack and be on the line in entering a burning building. You do not have to be state certified. That’s an option. If they want to go on and be an officer, there’s officer training above and beyond. Oodles of classes.” Weborg said he felt prepared for work with the department from his years in the commercial fishing business, and later as a carpenter in the shipbuilding industry. “I was pretty much mechanical minded and was able to pick up on that stuff pretty fast,” he said of his early days on the fire
department. “Growing up in the commercial fishing world in Gills Rock, you had to make decisions and you had to make them right now. You didn’t wait a day or two later. Whether I was in the shipyard or fishing, what made me a better fire chief was making snap decisions in a fire situation. I always tell the boys, hey, as long as there isn’t a person’s life in danger, don’t endanger your life. It’s fine to go into a burning building and put yourself between the burned and the unburned, but don’t endanger your life. I said, buildings can always be built, but your life, no. That’s what I’ve trained the guys and told the guys.” Of all the jobs on the department, recruiting new members is one of the toughest. “That’s the story of the world we live in,” Weborg said. “I thought it was only here in Door County, but it’s nationwide. We were in bad shape in Ephraim for a while, but now we’re up to 18 people.” Weborg said he had groomed his son, Bill, to take over as chief. “I would have stepped down as chief years ago,” he said. “Bill was my assistant
chief before he passed away and would have been chief long before now. When he passed away, my other assistant chief was John Cox. It really hit him because he and Bill were pretty close. He resigned after that. But if anything good happened with my son going down, it is that the fire departments in northern Door County have become closer knit, which definitely makes a better operation by far.” He mentions that when Bill was alive, he operated a business in Egg Harbor, and also served on the Egg Harbor Fire Department as well as Ephraim’s department. “So when Bill passed away, the guys in Egg Harbor – Justin MacDonald, Bobby Mueller Jr., Mike Meyer and Terry Havel – said we’re coming to help you out in Ephraim. So that’s where I got these guys. Bill will be gone 11 years in September, and they’ve been with me since. They’re good on their own. I can see they can handle situations and crises and whatever comes around.” Justin MacDonald stepped in as fire chief when Weborg stepped down on July 1. “Justin can handle it. He’s alright,” Weborg said. “I’m still with the department, but I said I’m not going to micromanage, but if they’re going too far awry, I might be there.” The Village of Ephraim will celebrate Niles Weborg’s 34 years as fire chief at an open house at the village hall from 3 to 6 pm on Saturday, Aug. 29. All are welcome to celebrate Weborg’s firefighting career. Cake and beverages will be served.

Natural Delivery

Doula services now available in Sturgeon Bay by PATTY WILLIAMSON, PHD
W
hen Heidi Kratcha was expecting her first baby 15 years ago, her older sister told her what a good experience she’d had with the Bradley Method of natural childbirth. Kratcha took classes, and her daughter and, several years later, two sons were delivered without medication. By learning how to relax and understanding the physiology of labor, she was able to eliminate the fear that causes tension and pain. Kratcha was so impressed that she took the training to become a certified instructor in the Bradley Method, which increases an expectant mother’s self-awareness, teaches her how to deal with the stress of labor by tuning in to her own body and encourages her to trust her body by using natural breathing, relaxation, nutrition, exercise and education. For the past four years, Kratcha has been teaching 12-week classes in the Bradley Method, that was developed by obstetrician Dr. Robert Bradley more than 45 years ago. Bradley believed that women’s bodies are designed to give birth naturally if they trust themselves to relax. Proponents say that nearly 90 percent of women who are educated in the method give birth without pain medication. It stresses active participation by the husband or other coach, immediate and continuous contact with the new baby and breastfeeding beginning at birth. Kratcha is the only certified instructor of the Bradley Method north of Oshkosh. Kratcha also teaches the pregnancy diet developed by Dr. Tom Brewer (drbrewerpregnancydiet.com) that features high protein, natural foods and – a surprise to most people – added salt, which helps women with high blood pressure that can lead to pre-eclampsia. Brewer also believed it was unwise to hold pregnant women to a strict limit on gaining weight, with 35 to 40 pounds accepted as average. For the last 3½ years, Kratcha has also been a certified doula, a word that comes from the ancient Greek, meaning “a woman who serves,” and is now used to refer to a trained and experienced professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to the mother before, during and just after birth; or who provides emotional and practical support during the postpartum period. DONA International, the largest doula association in the world, says studies have shown that when doulas attend births, labors are shorter with fewer com-

As a doula, Kratcha has worked with many women in the Appleton/Green Bay area, and says that 90 percent of them were successful in having medication-free deliveries. She is passionate about the value of pre-delivery education that teaches women to understand what her body is doing, to tune in to the process, breathe naturally and relax to decrease the discomfort. Exercise throughout pregnancy is important, Kratcha says, “It’s called labor for a reason.” Kratcha believes that inaccurate media depictions of childbirth contribute to fear of what should be a natural process. “In only eight or nine percent of cases does water break before labor begins,” she says. “If a pregnant woman has eaten a healthy diet and there is no infection, the water should break during the pushing stage of labor.” She also says that women trained in the Bradley Method rarely scream during labor, but may moan softly as they breathe deeply. “Nurses who are not familiar with the method are amazed,” she says. Kratcha points out that doulas don’t do “anything medical” in the labor and delivery rooms, but provide encouragement and emotional and physical support to the mother and husband or other birth coach. “It is helpful,” she says, “to have another woman in the room to say, ‘I’ve done this. You’re doing fine, and you’ll be OK.’” The doula may also suggest positions to make the mother more comfortable or to speed delivery. “We teach women to be informed consumers and their own advocates,” she says. “We let them know that they have choices. When labor is induced with Pitocin, contractions are so intense and close together that the mother loses control of the natural birthing process. Epidurals also slow labor, Kratcha says, because the patient has to stay in bed, whereas walking and changing positions can make labor shorter and more comfortable.” About one-third of all babies are now delivered by C-section. Doctors often rec-
ommend this when the baby is large or the due date has been passed, but Kratcha says that in cases that aren’t emergencies for the baby’s or mother’s health, a natural delivery is usually possible. She wants women to know they have choices. The Kratcha family recently moved to Sturgeon Bay. She is currently teaching a series of classes in the Bradley Method in Green Bay, but is interested in teaching and working as a doula in the Sturgeon Bay area. She can be reached at 920.470.1478 or heidikratcha@gmail.com. The usual charge for the series of 12 twohour classes is $250, with an extra charge for attending the birth, but she is willing to work out an arrangement so that the cost won’t prevent anyone from participating. She says that some insurance companies will pay for doula services. Amanda Krueger of Sister Bay has two children. “The first birth was induced with Pitocin,” she says. “I didn’t get to push long enough, and the doctor suctioned the baby out. Heidi was my doula for the second birth. She was wonderful, and the difference between the two experiences was phenomenal. The second one was all natural, the doctor was super supportive and it was a fast birth. Heidi made sure I stayed focused and that I used every contraction to its fullest, so that no effort was wasted. I learned that your body can do it and do it right.” Heidi was also the doula for Amber Yahnke of Green Bay during the 31-hour labor with her baby last year. “It was crucial to have Heidi with me the whole time,” Amber says. “It’s easy to become discouraged after that many hours, but she kept reminding me that the baby would come at the right time.” Amber is now studying to be a childbirth instructor and doula. “I became passionate about it when I learned what our bodies are capable of doing,” she says. “I felt so empowered, and I want to help other moms have the same experience.”

A Different Kind of High Sister Bay resident Tony Gonzales finds triathlon in sobriety by JACKSON PARR “In some ways, drug addiction and endurance sports are similar; they both take you to this strange place, far outside usual reality. But it’s more complex than that. Drug addiction and alcoholism take you in a very dark, confining direction; endurance sports always transport you to a new landscape, a new part of the world, where you embrace the outdoors with other people; you learn to go past what you thought your limits were…”
I
t takes a certain kind of person to jump in the pool before the sun rises and fit in another workout while the sun sets, using what would otherwise be relaxing weekends to squeeze in long bike rides and runs. Endurance athletes are often said to have Type A personalities, with excessive drive, urgency and anxious behaviors. But there is another brand of people that express these traits, and their two worlds collide more often than you might think. “Even though I’m sober, I still think like an addict,” said Tony Gonzales. On Aug. 8, the Sister Bay resident competed in the USA Triathlon Age Group National Championship in Milwaukee alongside more than 4,000 athletes from across the country. But Gonzales wasn’t living the active and competitive life before he found the sport in 2013. “My life revolved around getting high,” said Gonzales. “I bartended four nights a week and that was just enough money to get what I needed. I ingested pretty much anything. There was a lot of cocaine there for a while.” Taking first place in the 50-54 age group of the Door County Triathlon this year, Gonzales is one of a quiet few who have used the sport as a launch pad for getting sober. He describes his recent hobby as extreme, but maybe that is the reason it works in the first place. Alcoholics and drug addicts are extreme by nature. The ability to diffuse destructive but impulsive desires varies across all individuals. And the aspect of human nature that begs us to repeat behaviors that are pleasurable makes everyone vulnerable to addiction. Addiction does not have to focus on a substance or behavior that is viewed negatively. Any activity done to the extent that it interferes with normal life can be described as an addiction. In general, exercise is viewed as a positive activity. But when relationships, work and health suffer as a result from getting the workout in, the idea of exercise addiction creeps in. While exercise addiction is not listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, which includes things such as gambling and drug addiction, more research is surfacing on the psychology of exercise addiction as popularity in things such as triathlon and marathon running grows. The emerging studies diagnose exercise addiction with terms such as withdrawal symptoms, tolerance and relapse. In a survey study from Nottingham Trent University, questions posed to athletes could swap the words “exercise” and “drink/ drinking” and then be given to alcoholics. • I exercise despite recurring physical problems • I exercise to avoid feeling anxious • I continually increase my exercise duration to achieve the desired effects/benefits
So with continued evidence suggesting the validity of exercise addiction, are former substance abusers turned endurance athletes simply trading their addiction? “I don’t like that word addiction; put in something positive because it’s almost a negative word,” said Gonzales. “How about, ‘He traded his addiction for something he is passionate for.’ That makes me feel better if someone were to say that. I think people who don’t understand addiction would say, ‘He found one addiction for another.’ I took offense to that at first but it doesn’t matter what anyone says.” During exercise, the brain releases dopamine, a chemical associated with feelings of pleasure and also linked to drug use. The release of dopamine and post-exercise endorphins can serve as the substance that athletes strive for. In two independent studies, animals more frequently rejected doses of morphine and amphetamines when they exercised. The exercise produced a feeling that filled the void that would otherwise encourage substance abuse. Mark Smith, psychology professor at Davidson College, told CNN this trade of addictions is a good thing. “One of those addictions leads to basically a devastation throughout all aspects of your life and probably premature death,” he said. “The other addiction leads to improved cardiovascular health, better self-esteem, better self-efficacy and maybe some joint problems when you get older. It’s an apples-and-chainsaws comparison.” But not everyone believes in this trading of addictions, primarily those who suffered through the transition. Former alcoholic turned best-selling Kindle author Mishka Shubaly describes in his first book, The Long Run, that, quite simply, drinking was easy and running was hard. Rich Roll, another former alcoholic turned endurance athlete and wellness advocate, explained in an interview with biographile.com that addicts are just people who are seeking answers. “When you take away the drugs and alcohol, that seeking continues. It just gets channeled into healthier outlets. It’s common to pursue other extreme things.” For Gonzales, it was the regimented training schedule that kept him on track after he got sober in 2009. Leading up to his hospital detox and stint with in-out patient rehab, the required drives to Sturgeon Bay gave him something to do. But before he elected to get sober and well before he ran his first mile, he lived a blurry life. “Every night I wouldn’t fall asleep, I would pass out. I didn’t know how to fall asleep,” he recalls. “Every evening I would look in the mirror and say, ‘Ok, tomorrow you have to stop drinking.’ But I could not do it. I would wake up the next morning and I would be shaky. I was so mad at myself because I could not stop.”

Gonzales’ father struggled with alcoholism during his childhood yet has been sober for 30 years. But Gonzales still can’t pin his habit on any one instance. “In meetings, a lot of people find out why they drink, whether it be abuse or something happened. I don’t think we ever got to that,” he said. He had been drinking hard most of his life, but in March 2001 his habit took a darker turn when his older brother fell through the ice in Ephraim and died. “Johnny was not just my brother but he was my best friend,” he said. “At that time I took it to another level, which I didn’t think I could do. That was the beginning of the end.” For the next eight years, he would go a day or two without drinking before submitting to his addiction again. During rehab, he was afraid to leave the safety of a hospital bed but also hated being around the people who offered to care for him. “When you get sober you want to take a magic pill and have everything be right,” he said. “But it took a long time to mess a lot of things up so I had to build friendships again.” One of those friendships was with his wife, who refused to have him in the house in the years leading up to his recovery. The fractured relationship was beyond saving even after he got out sober, leading to their divorce in 2011. “When I got sober, I got sober for the wrong reasons,” he said. “I would get my house and my wife back. That was the only reason I quit drinking. When I realized that I wasn’t moving back home and I was getting a divorce, I knew this was serious.” But life on the sober side got a little better with every day that went by. When he found triathlon in 2013, he also found a new high. “Going to nationals and finishing the Olympic race… I never got a high like that from anything I put in my stomach,” he said. “Having this schedule and this regimen with triathlon keeps me in a place that I love.” Now, Gonzales has his eye on the World Championships, which would require him to finish in the top 25 in his age group at the national championship event in Omaha next year. Despite these goals, Gonzales knows his past is not too far behind him. “I’m not cured. I’m OK today and I think the exercise part of it makes life a lot easier,” he said. “As long as I keep doing what I’m doing, I’m happy and I just gotta be careful to not stray from that. I found something that works for me. I think something athletic plays a big part in sobriety. I know it has in mine.”

Destroyers Advance in MSFL Playoffs
Coach Chris Knapp (center) surrounded by Door County Destroyers owners/players Chris LeCloux (left) and Ryan Zuehlke. Submitted photo. The Door County Destroyers traveled to Waukesha West High School to take on the Muskego Hitmen in a first round playoff match-up. The game was a tough defensive battle throughout. In the third quarter the game was tied at 10, and that’s when the Destroyers’ defense came alive. The defense forced two turnovers, with the offense adding a touchdown and a field goal that led to a 20-10 Destroyers victory and its first playoff win since joining the Mid-States Football League (MSFL). The Destroyers won the 2014 Wisconsin State Football League (WSFL)

Truly “Green” Mission at Spa Verde by PATTY WILLIAMSON, PHD
K
athleen Finnerty had managed day spas for a number of years when she decided, in 2010, to open one that was totally “green.” Her mission was to use only products that were free of chemicals and contained no carcinogens. “It was not as easy as I thought it would be,” she says. “It took a long time to research not only the ingredients in each of the products we would be using, but how they might affect our clients and staff. We also checked out the companies that produce the products, to be sure that their business practic-
es were truly committed to protecting both people and the environment.” Spa Verde (the Spanish word for green) is located at 7821 Hwy. 42 in Egg Harbor, sharing a building with Greens N Grains, a health food store and deli, and Ecotique, a yoga studio/ organic clothing shop. The boutique spa provides manicures, pedicures, hair services, skin care, waxing and massages in attractive, calm surroundings without any of the chemical smells often founds in hair and nail salons. There are 11 regular employees, with others on-call when a wedding or other event brings a group of clients in.

Finnerty, who has been a state-licensed aesthetician (skin care specialist) for 16 years, has a total commitment to the spa’s green mission. “Effective products don’t have to contain chemicals,” she says. “We are dedicated to protecting the health of both our clients and our employees. We even clean with baking soda and vinegar.” It’s important, she says, that the spa took these steps on its own, because the body services industry is basically unregulated. Finnerty says that the “green” spa is proving to be very popular, with more business than those she managed previously. Call 920.868.1597 for hours, an appointment or more information.

EATING GREEN
Apple Cider Vinegar by Jackson Parr A common addition to salad dressings or marinades, the strong punch of apple cider vinegar may have more health benefits than we once believed. It can help with an upset stomach as well as the hiccups, but the liquid’s biologic effects are where researchers are getting excited. Studies have shown apple cider vinegar to be effective in controlling blood sugar, helpful in diabetics but still useful to others. After a starchheavy meal, consisting of foods like potatoes and pasta, consumption of apple cider vinegar can slow the absorption of carbohydrates, creating a gradual change in blood sugar instead of a rapid change. This slow release of carbohydrates can prevent the sluggish post-meal feeling and provide sustained energy instead of a sugar rush.

SCIENCE SNIPPET compiled by Paul Burton When it comes to assessing the impact of their products on living things, do you believe scientists or the insecticide/herbicide industry? For example, are insecticides containing neonicotinoid chemicals really killing bees of all kinds? A number of lab studies say “yes,” but makers of the insecticides claim that lab studies do not represent what happens under field conditions. Recently scientists took their research from the lab to the field to study bees feeding on rapeseed flowers. Many farmers plant seeds coated with an insecticide or herbicide to ensure a relatively pest-free crop. The roots of such plants transfer the chemical to flowers and foliage. In field studies, scientists compared assays of bees feeding on the flowers of rapeseeds coated with the pesticide neonicotinoid to assays of bees in distant fields feeding on rapeseed flowers from untreated (uncoated) rapeseeds. They found that bee density diminished in fields grown from treated seeds and that nesting ability was impaired. In fields grown from untreated seeds, bees remained healthy. In general, the findings agree with other studies showing that bees ingesting neonicotinoids undergo changes in behavior and foraging ability, probably associated with the pesticide’s effect on the insects’ nervous system. (Science, 2006, Vol. 313, p. 351; Nature, Kessler et al, 2015, Vol. 521, p. 74; Nature, Rundlof et al, 2015, Vol. 521, p. 77) Paul Burton is Professor Emeritus in cell biology from the U. of Kansas and a distinguished alumnus from Western Carolina U.

A
blue-sky day with a gentle breeze, temperature in the upper 60s, Sulphur Butterflies and Wood Wasps constantly on the move – these are sure hints of fall. Goldenrods and Purple Asters add a delightful compliment of colors to this crisp day. Our walk after an early breakfast, into the still-wet woods revealed what we had hoped to find, dozens of mushrooms. This is indeed the season when mycophagists, those who eat mushrooms, are getting psyched for the big hunts. They wait with great anticipation for their mushroom hikes to begin. Eastern Wisconsinites can expect a good autumn for houby (pronounced HOE-be; Bohemian for mushrooms).
Rainfall has been plentiful, perfectly interspersed with short periods of dryness. Even though late July was relatively dry, resulting in a poor crop of one of our favorite fleshy fungi, the Chanterelles, August so far has had good rainfall. We could have eaten another savory mushroom, Leccinum insigne (lek-SY-num in-SIG-nee) until they came out of our ears, so plentiful were they. These large colorful mushrooms are found growing in Quaking Aspen groves. Some people consider fungi as the Third Kingdom, animals and plant being the other two. Fungi have no chlorophyll, roots, true stems, flowers, seeds or leaves. In a sense they don’t even resemble plants. And bear in mind that all fungi are not what we call mushrooms.
Macro-fungi are the woody or fleshy fungi easily seen, enjoyed or eaten by people. This group includes the mushrooms. Micro-fungi are microscopic and include yeasts, various ferments, parasites which harm crops, molds which damage food, numerous agents of disease and valuable antibiotics. When we look at a mushroom, we are viewing the fruiting body, much like an apple is to an apple tree. The vegetative part of the mushroom, the mycelium, is generally hidden from view either in the soil, a tree, or within a pile of rotting wood. The cobweb-like mycelium branches out within the various materials from which it derives nutrients. Mushrooms in a way are like people in that they are entirely dependent upon other organisms for their suste-

nance. And like humans, the study of mushrooms is an endless subject. Many people wouldn’t dream of eating a wild mushroom, preferring to limit their association with this mysterious and wonderful group of plants to their pure esthetic value. It is wise to purchase a very good, recently published, mushroom field guide that covers species found in your area. Read it from the beginning to learn important details of observation and proper ways of noting all the parts of the mushroom. Does it have a cap and stalk? Are there gills under the cap, or are there tubes or spines? One of the most poisonous species, the deadly white Amanita, has been found in several Door County parks and can be confused with an edible type with a few similar characteristics. Go out on a hike with an experienced mushroom hunter and learn how to do field identification of species. At the other end of the scale are those folks who are so eager to eat wild mushrooms that they would be perfectly willing to trust our determination of edibility from their description over the telephone. These same people will pay hundreds of dollars to a doctor or lawyer for medical or legal advice, yet they expect free advice from us regarding wild mushrooms, a food that could mean life or death! Inspectorates were established in France in 1925 to identify wild mushrooms sold at the markets, to ensure the buyers that the mushrooms they were getting were safe to eat. One of the mushroom inspectors himself died at Fougères in 1930 as a result of eating poisonous mushrooms. Along with eating fleshy fungi go accuracy in identification, thorough familiarity, constant study, positiveness and absolutely no guesswork. If knowledge breeds confidence, it should also breed respect. The delicious and completely inoffensive mushroom can become very dangerous with deterioration. In the case that you do collect and eat wild fungi, eat only those that are totally free of insects and are in perfectly fresh condition. Unless you are absolutely positive of identification, beware of the so-called “button” stage of mushrooms. It is too easy to make your last mistake. Should you have proudly reached the stage of finally accurately identifying one or two species of edible mush-
rooms and are now ready to eat them, don’t make a pig of yourself. Go easy at first. Just as some people are allergic to milk or chocolate, so too are some individuals sensitive to various mushrooms. Eating mushrooms may amount to only a tiny fraction of the total enjoyment obtained from the exhilarating hike, discovery, and identification of the prized specimens. The “Little Birch Shell,” Lenzites betulina, I have photographed in the past proved to be more and more interesting the more closely I examined it. Mycology, that branch of botany dealing with fungi, certainly is a fascinating study with dozens of good catch-hold points, such as photography, microscopy, painting, ceramics and other crafts, dying fabrics, reading
folklore, and the challenge of accurate identification. As Charlotte often tells her students of mushrooms, “Crawl around the woods on your hands and knees. Get down to the level of the mushrooms!” The mushroom season has arrived. To the woods, to the woods! Roy Lukes has been photographing nature more than 50 years, writing weekly nature stories since 1968 and helping people become better caretakers of the Earth. He holds an honorary Doctor of Science degree from Lawrence University and was awarded the Chancellor’s Medallion in recognition of his environmental advocacy from UW Oshkosh.
1 The vegetative part of the mushroom is called mycelium and often is hidden in the soil, under humus, in rotting trees or under loose bark. 2 One of the parts of a mushroom is called a partial veil which initially covers the underside of the cap. When the cap expands the membrane breaks loose and may remain as a ring or “skirt” on the stalk. 3 Some mushrooms have tubes under the cap rather than gills. Here are two very different species of tubed mushrooms. Note the size, color and form of each.

Orange Juice, Toothpaste and Lost Knowledge by STEVE GRUTZMACHER steve@ppulse.com
I
f you read the first two items in the title above and you shuddered when a memory flashed through your mind, there is a strong likelihood that you and I are from the same generation or your generation is close to mine. If you are perplexed why anyone would shudder when seeing orange juice and toothpaste in such close proximity then you are, no doubt, from a younger generation and that is the crux of the problem that has led to the writing of this column. It may seem hard to believe for many of you, but orange juice was once a prerequisite of breakfast. Any trip to the grocery store, particularly if you had children, always included buying milk and orange juice. Breakfast cereal commercials, which once flooded television, invariably included a scene of a filled cereal bowl (often topped with sliced bananas or strawberries), a tall glass of milk, and a somewhat smaller glass of orange juice. Indeed, the orange juice companies and the orange growers of Florida were also regular advertisers and, it

seemed, that every refrigerator in America included a carton of orange juice. Somewhere during the passing years orange juice consumption dropped precipitously. I remember several instances of hard freezes in the Sunshine State killing off large portions of the orange trees and these undoubtedly pushed orange juice prices high, which may have contributed to the plummet in orange juice consumption. Other factors included a significant drop in the acreage devoted to orange groves, Americans’ changing views toward sugar consumption, and our lifestyle changes that leave little time for a proper breakfast. So, as you have gathered by now, I grew up at a time when a glass of orange juice every morning was not just normal, it was routine. Of course, mornings are not routine. Oversleeping, scrambling to find (or finish) homework, etc. can throw “routine” into chaos. I delivered newspapers every morning from junior high through high school, rising at 4:45 am to fold and load my papers before setting off on my bike for deliveries. If it was raining, snowing or bitterly cold I was often running late by the time I returned home and so the routine became chaos.
individuals felt more in control of their life with money management counseling. “We called and made an appointment. Our counselor was such a ray of light in our darkness of overdue bills and the turmoil in our lives at that time. She helped us. She didn’t just take over, but gave us outlets to contact to make arrangements to get caught up with our regular bills. We sat down and prepared a REAL budget to follow and began to get back on track. But best of all, she cared!”
Whether I experienced the dreaded toothpaste-orange juice combination after a long morning delivering papers and then trying to rush out of the house, or I had the experience earlier in life, I can no longer recollect. But, much like learning not to touch something hot (which you hopefully learned much earlier in life), drinking orange juice after brushing your teeth is an experience you never forget and, consequently, never repeat. One internet commentator compared the taste of orange juice after brushing your teeth to drinking a glass of battery acid, a comparison that I can neither confirm nor deny since I have never consumed battery acid. But I was curious about what happens to make the sweet taste of orange juice so atrocious after brushing your teeth and the American Chemical Society provided the following answer. Our tongues are home to almost 10,000 taste buds each containing about 100 taste receptor cells, which are programmed to detect five different types of taste: sweet, sour, bitter, salty and umami. When we eat food, molecules and ions with distinct shapes are distributed across the taste buds and these match up with specific receptor cells. Toothpaste is made up of water, fluoride, abrasives and detergents. The primary detergent used in toothpaste is sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), which is used in a wide array of everyday products, including toilet bowl cleanser. And this is where the problem arises: SLS not only suppresses our sweet receptors it also destroys compounds in our mouth called phospholipids, which inhibit our bitter receptor cells. And so, with our ability to taste sweetness suppressed and our inability to block out bitter taste we get something that tastes like…well, battery acid, when we drink orange juice after brushing our teeth. And this leads me to the final item in the title of this column: lost knowledge. Obviously, this is referring to the fact that, with significantly reduced orange juice consumption in America, fewer Americans are aware (or have experienced) the dreaded orange juice-toothpaste combination. But there it also refers to a more tangible experience, which gave rise to this entire column. You see, I am one of those people who use mouthwash after I brush my teeth, and my preferred mouthwash is original Listerine. I sense many of you shuddering again merely thinking about the taste of unflavored Listerine and, while I acknowledge that it is awful I appreciate the burning sensation it causes me – confirming in my mind, at least, that it is, indeed, killing all those nasty germs. So a few weeks back, my wife, Barb, went to the store and purchased a fresh bottle of Listerine for me (she, like you, hates the stuff), but, unable to find the original Listerine, she bought a flavored variety of my favorite mouthwash: orange! And now you see my meaning when I refer to lost knowledge. No one, and I mean no one, would ever consider orange an appropriate flavor for a mouthwash if they had experienced the toothpaste-mouthwash combination. This was obviously devised by someone far younger than I am and was never stopped before being produced and foisted on the public. To be fair, however, the orange-flavored Listerine does not produce the same repugnant taste the true orange juice produces
BY THE NUMBERS Gluten Gluten-free products are big right now – an estimated $8.8 billion market that grew 63 percent between 2012 and 2014. An estimated 20 million Americans are pursuing gluten-free diets as a healthier lifestyle and another 13 million have gone gluten-free in an attempt to shed pounds. Some experts say a gluten-free diet is really only beneficial to the very small percent of the population who suffer from the hereditary autoimmune disorder known as celiac disease, which is caused by the ingestion of gluten, which would make gluten-free eating just another dietary fad. NSF International, a global organization committed to protecting health and safety, conducted a survey that determined most consumers are not very well informed about gluten.

after brushing your teeth. The taste is more akin to the orange candy crystals in the straws we all consumed as children, or the sweetened Kool-Aid powder if you dabbed some on your tongue before mixing the rest with water. This fact, however, does nothing to change the cringe I experience each time I raise the orange-colored mouthwash to my lips after brushing my teeth. And as I dutifully finish off the vile liquid I look forward, anxiously, to original Listerine, whose searing burn I desperately miss. Steve has been kicking around Door County since 1970.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Crying Foul
Do Your Part
Recurring Problems
The July 31 edition of the Peninsula Pulse contained a letter to the editor titled “We Are All Wisconsin.” The letter was written by a Mr. John Holevoet of Dodge County, who by his own admission works for the Dairy Business Association. His purpose seemed to be to malign the intentions and the character of Nancy Utesch – mother, farmer and caring individual who happens to live in Kewaunee County and who has spoken out eloquently in previous letters about local groundwater issues, the dangers of manure spreading and the proliferation of CAFOs (concentrated animal feeding operations) in Northeast Wisconsin. If Mr. Holevoet knew Mrs. Utesch, as we do, he would not be able to cast aspersions on her motivations or her character. If Mr. Holevoet knew Door and Kewaunee counties, he would not be able to make the sweeping statement that because Wisconsin has been called “the dairy state,” that all parts of the state are equal and therefore suited to the same methods of farming. If Mr. Holevoet really understood the problems underlying our current inability to meet the world’s food needs, he would not claim that producing more dairy products under extreme (and I would add inhumane) methods is the solution. No, Mr. Holevoet, if your method is to cast aspersions on anyone in the state who dares to contradict your opinions and that of the organization you represent, it is not only because of “the faint smell of cow manure” that we cry “foul!”
When I attended my first Climate Change conference in Door County in 2014 I knew virtually nothing about the scope of it other than that the polar icecaps were melting causing rising sea levels and endangering the lives of polar bears. That first conference alerted me to so many other plights caused by climate change. In the year between that first conference and this year’s second one, I continued to read, hear talks, see movies and learn even more on the subject. The 2015 conference introduced me to the impact of climate change on birds. Many birds are already having to fly farther north to find habitat and food as climate change disrupts their previous locales. This news was bad enough for me as a lifetime bird lover, observer and feeder but then I learned that, if climate change continues unchecked at its present rate, we Wisconsinites would ultimately lose all our loons to more northern locations! To me, and I suspect, to many others, loons are an iconic, beloved part of Wisconsin’s northern lakes. My fondest memories of being “up north” on cabin vacations are falling asleep and awakening to loons calling on the lake. Watching them up close in our canoe was another joy. Therefore, I was so glad to see Matt Reetz’s article (“A Birder’s Eye View”) last week in the Peninsula Pulse. I am not a scientist but have a great passion for our beautiful, natural world. The scientists have convinced me that climate change is real and that we must act now to save this “green garden floating in space” for our children, our grandchildren and the generations to come. Please educate yourself on the many changes already occurring and what the future holds if we do not stem the tide before it is too late. Read the “Green Life” pages in the Peninsula Pulse, attend the next annual Climate Change Forum on May 7, 2016, attend the monthly, public, free talks and movies on this subject, and go to the internet and read the planned actions made during the U.N.’s Climate Change Summit in N.Y. in 2014. Please do your part to keep our planet cool, sustainable, beautiful and green!
Regarding the recent article, “Beach Road Construction Stirs Residents,” I would like to know just where the comment came from which was attributed to Pat Hockers: “Pat Hockers, committee member and owner of Hockers Excavating, traveled down the road and saw about nine trees that would be slated for the wood chipper, not including dead ones.” Either the author, Jackson Parr, misheard and misquoted Mr. Hockers or Pat Hockers is lying through his teeth, as his estimate of only nine trees, “not including dead ones,” is so inane and so deceptive as to be ludicrous. This is the kind of misinformation that drives us permanent residents of Liberty Grove nuts because it seeks to allay the fears of the snowbirds until after they have departed from the area and cannot see the devastation, which will be occurring after they have left. Only the stumps will be visible next spring, and the canopy that used to exist along Beach Road will be but a fading memory. When those trees are gone, they will be gone forever. I am assuming that Mr. Hockers was quoted correctly, and if this is the case, then it once again brings up bad memories from the recent past. Many of us have witnessed past campaigns of misinformation propagated by the Town and the Highway Committee under Chairman Mike Walker beginning with the resurfacing of Isle View Road three years ago and Garrett Bay Road last year. Mr. Walker promotes Garrett Bay Road as a success story, but that is hardly the way that many residents feel. Our view is to revel in the canopy and cut the speed limit, but others want to strip the trees and widen the shoulders so that cars can drive faster. I drove down Beach Road yesterday, and I counted 111 trees which are slated to be cut because they are marked with the orange dot of death. A few of these trees may already be dead, but there is no way that this number bears any resemblance to the nine trees as quoted in the article. I also heard from a resident of Beach Road this evening that the total number of trees slated for removal totals 168. It would have been nice if your reporter had questioned that lowball number of

Caring for the County The Sue Baldwin Fund (SBF) was established in 2007 to help Door County women and men in the fight against breast cancer. This year’s Annual Pink Classic Golf Tournament at Horseshoe Bay Golf Club was a huge success, raising more than $18,000 to allow the Sue Baldwin Fund to support breast cancer awareness, screening, treatment and care for Door County residents who have an economic need. The incredible generosity of the golf club, Pink Classic participants, and the businesses who donated items for the raffle and live auction, along with countless volunteer hours, make the work of the Sue Baldwin Fund possible. Examples of assistance the Sue Baldwin Fund has provided for people with breast cancer include helping with medical bills, rent, utilities and expenses for transportation and food. The SBF provides care packages and books for the Cancer Center at Ministry Door County Medical Center and helps fund the Women to Women Cancer Support Group at the Community Clinic of Door County (call the clinic to reserve a spot in the next session, beginning Sept. 16). The SBF also pays a Door County breast cancer survivor’s tuition when she participates in a four day Infinite Boundaries Breast Cancer Retreat (visit the Breast Cancer Recovery website, bcrecovery.org, for information about the October retreat in Door County). The Sue Baldwin Fund is an all-volunteer organization dedicated to assisting those in need in our community. If you or someone you know needs help paying for screenings, diagnostic services or assistance during or after breast cancer treatment, please visit our website at suebaldwinfund. com to download an application, or email SueBaldwinFund@gmail.com or call 920.839.1114 for more information. Many thanks to all who support the work of the Sue Baldwin Fund! Kris Miller, Sue Baldwin Fund Board of Directors Baileys Harbor, Wis.

Rescue Run A couple of days ago I called Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary in Green Bay to ask them to send a volunteer to Egg Harbor to pick up and transport an injured seagull. I was informed that there is only one couple in our area that volunteers with the sanctuary, and they had just dropped off a Door County fox and were now headed out on vacation. That meant that either the injured gull would be left to die if I did not deliver him/her myself. Luckily, I had an empty box in my vehicle, and I always have a blanket on board. I gathered the little guy up and away we went. The sanctuary is just off of 43 N, via the Webster exit…just up the road a couple of blocks from Bay Beach Amusement Park. It’s a beautiful place to visit, even if you are not making a rescue run. I have decided that I will be become a second resource to deliver animals from the peninsula in need of medical care and rehabilitation, that they may eventually return to the wild. If you would like to become part of this effort, call Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary at 920.391.3683, or email wis@ greenbaywi.gov. For more information visit baybeachwildlife.com.

just nine trees for three miles of road. Of course, it would even be better of the residents and property owners would be given factual information and not a bunch of hooey from a member of the Liberty Grove Highway Committee who has a huge conflict of interest in being a supplier to Liberty Grove for all of the road work that is undertaken. Every year for the past three years the Town Electors of Liberty Grove at the November Annual Meeting have voted in favor of preventing persons who have a serious conflict of interest from serving on Town Committees, and every year the Town Board under President Lowry ignores this vote. That is just how business is being conducted up here. Carl Zapffe Ellison Bay, Wis.

New School Year Brings Excitement by TONY EVERS State Superintendent
I
’m always excited by the start of a new school year. It provides fresh opportunities for our teachers and students to get going on new learning while they make new friends and renew social and extracurricular activities. Amidst the many challenges and changes for the 2015-16 school year, there will be one constant: a singular focus on preparing students to be college and career ready. But what does that mean to be ready for college, ready for careers? Certainly, we expect all of our students to gain solid academic knowledge in the various subject areas. But there’s more. Students also need to have the social and emotional competence to be able to apply their knowledge, think critically, and communicate and collaborate with others. That’s part of the real world that awaits them. We want our kids to be creative, to show appropriate leadership skills, and to develop the behaviors of perseverance, responsibility, and adaptability so they are ready for the inevitable struggles in life. Our schools and teachers need family and community support to deliver the rigorous, rich and well-rounded education our kids deserve. Throughout the spring and summer, we’ve been working on strategies that will support educators as they build relationships that strengthen results for our students. Look for more information on the work of my Parent Advisory Council in September. During this school year, a number of schools are piloting academic and career planning. It’s a bit of a change in the way schools do things, but the process is a great opportunity for our young people to really think through with their parents and teachers what they want to do going forward. The process honors all postsecondary routes, including military, apprenticeship, certification, technical college, and university education. It also helps students and their families recognize that many people move in and out of different routes throughout their lives. While Wisconsin’s statewide assessments, used to measure how well students are learning, are changing, they will still have the goals of measuring student academic achievement and improving classroom instruction. And that’s really what it’s all about. Moving kids forward, closing achievement gaps, and making sure the next generation is ready and willing to take charge. We can all make that happen by supporting our hardworking students, educators, and school leaders. Our plan for every child to graduate ready for college and careers is called Agenda 2017. I just know it’s going to be a great year. Let’s do it.
“Try not to become a man of success. Rather become a man of value.” —ALBERT EINSTEIN
Tadych Named 2015 Grocer of the Year Jim Tadych, owner of Tadych’s Econofoods, was named 2015 Grocer of the Year, the Wisconsin Grocers Association’s (WGA) highest honor, on Thursday, Aug. 13, at his Brillion store. When you ask Jim Tadych why he has been in the grocery business for more than 45 years, he will tell you it is because he loves people and loves filling the needs of his customers. Jim started in the grocery business in 1968 with a small T&C Jim Tadych. Market grocery Submitted photo. store in Brillion, where he was part of a small four-person team. From meat cutting, ordering groceries to bagging groceries, Jim wore many hats. With a steady increase in business, Jim soon moved into a 6,300 square-foot building next to his first store. In 1978, as business increased at his second location, a new 14,500 square-foot T&C Market was built on a site closer to downtown Brillion. In 1993, the store expanded to 20,000
square feet and in 2009, a 37,500 square-foot store was built across the street. This store was the first Tadych’s Econofoods, adding a local flavor and community support. Opportunities came along in other market areas and Jim saw a way to not only expand his company, but to also meet and serve the needs of more people in Northeast Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. In 1981, a warehousestyle store was built in Sturgeon Bay, followed by large stores in Iron Mountain, Marquette and Houghton, Mich. In 2001, Jim purchased the Econofoods in Clintonville from the Nash Finch Company and continued his tradition of service. Along with the extensive products and services all of Jim’s stores provide, all are also very involved in their respective communities. This includes Shop with a Cop, activities for kids at Christmas time, Boys and Girls Club fundraising, members of their local chambers of commerce, sponsor of the Door County YMCA, local county fair auctions that support local scholarship programs, fundraisers for local United Way chapters, store tours for grade school classes, support of local athletic and academic programs, and support for the “We Share” Programs for area food banks. Over the years, Tadych’s Econofoods has contributed more than a
million dollars to local community programs. Helping to spur the success and growth of the company alongside Jim are his two sons, Mike Tadych, president, and Marc Tadych, vice president; brothers Dave Tadych, general manager, Jerry Tadych, meat department supervisor (who retired in 2012) and nephew, Jon Tadych, who is the grocery manager in Iron Mountain, Mich. Because there are always opportunities for associates to move into a different position or promotion, Jim is proud to be able to promote them from within the company and help them grow in their jobs and career paths. “Future success in our business, like any other business, requires the right people, the right products, the right services and a quality distribution center,” said Jim. “That is where we are today and will continue to be for years to come.” The WGA is the Wisconsin food industry’s trade association, with more than 1,000 members, and the Grocer of the Year Award is its most prestigious award. Presented annually, the award is given to a WGA member who makes significant contributions to the industry and community. Jim will receive his formal award on Oct. 14 at the WGA Innovation Expo at the Potawatomi Casino in Milwaukee.
BUSINESS NOTES • America’s Farmers Grow Communities will partner again with farmers to award more than $3.3 million to community nonprofits across the country. In Wisconsin, 56 organizations will receive donations in 2016. Sponsored by the Monsanto Fund, the program’s purpose is to make a positive impact in rural communities by giving farmers a chance to direct $2,500 donations to eligible nonprofit organizations of their choice. Farmer enrollment for Grow Communities began Aug. 1 and runs through Nov. 30, 2015. Since the program’s inception, farmers have directed donations to help fire departments purchase equipment and complete training, send FFA and 4-H groups to contests and conventions, provide food pantries with meals to serve those in need and boost agriculture curriculum in rural school districts. Other beneficiaries
of the program have included health care organizations, youth and community centers, state parks and economic development programs, among many others. Wisconsin farmers can enroll in the program and find a complete list of program rules and eligibility information at GrowCommunities.com or by calling 877.267.3332 toll-free. • U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm Service Agency (FSA) Administrator Val Dolcini recently announced that the Farm Storage Facility Loan (FSFL) program, which provides low-interest financing to producers to build or upgrade storage facilities, will now include dairy, flowers and meats as eligible commodities. “For 15 years, this program has provided affordable financing, allowing American farmers and ranchers to construct or expand
storage on the farm,” said Dolcini. “By adding eligible commodities, these low-interest loans will help even more family farmers and ranchers to expand on-site storage.” The new commodities eligible for facility loans include floriculture, hops, rye, milk, cheese, butter, yogurt, meat and poultry (unprocessed), eggs, and aquaculture (excluding systems that maintain live animals through uptake and discharge of water). Commodities already eligible for the loans include corn, grain sorghum, rice, soybeans, oats, peanuts, wheat, barley, minor oilseeds harvested as whole grain, pulse crops (lentils, chickpeas and dry peas), hay, honey, renewable biomass, and fruits, nuts and vegetables for cold storage facilities.

BOOK REVIEW
West Fork
by Tom McKay / trade paperback, 166 pages, East Hall Press, Augustana College, 2014. by GARY JONES
T Feeling Pain by JUSTIN ISHERWOOD
Y
ou know how it is, when science discovers something you knew all along. To know the Nobel Prize and a million bucks went to a scientist who wrote up the research about something you already knew, just hadn’t gotten around to getting it published in the Academy proceedings. Jeffrey Mogil, a neuroscientist, has been studying pain for a number of years at McGill University in Montreal. One of the methods to test for pain is to inject an irritant into the feet of mice. His observation was that mice spent less time licking their feet, at the irritant, when a person is near. Including when that person is a cardboard cutout of Paris Hilton (I’m glad to know this still counts as science). Against this observation was another, that sometimes the animals showed less pain response than at other times. On a hunch the researcher noted whether it was a male or female researcher present. It was soon apparent that rodents showed less sign of pain when male researchers were near versus female researchers. They tried this same experiment with t-shirts. Worn t-shirts. The presence of shirts worn by women smelling of men, 36 percent less evidence of pain. Maleness it seems, including odors of maleness, acts as a painkiller. As farmkids we regularly did things that generally cause pain in normal right-thinking people. To work without respite, long hours, lift impossible weights, fit our hands into exceedingly small crevices with a 9/16-inch wrench with three degrees of arc travel, that when expressed in inches of thread is 10 minutes of your hand inside an impossibly small hole that rotates at right angles at the bottom. To most ordinary people this has all the markings of a leg-hold trap. It is my belief there are mechanical engineers who are born sinister in regards to repair, that these engineers are born at about the same ratio as mass murderers. As a kid I was occasionally injured in the presence of my father, the sense was it didn’t hurt as much as when I got injured in the presence of my mom, who despite the crude rural setting was an actual female. In my dad’s presence I could pile a hundred and twenty bales on a flat rack hay wagon, then sit on top of that load like I was the lord of the fief. If my mom was driving the baler, I rode home on the tractor thinking it too dangerous
to ride on top of that wagon load. Once the entire load tumbled into the creek when a timber broke and we were riding that load home. Once there were scary rides at the Amherst Fair our dad would buy the tickets for. Our mom wouldn’t. Afraid we’d puke in public, and this a reflection on her parentage. Besides being a waste of an entire 20¢ carton of popcorn, besides that it spoils a person’s taste for popcorn for a while. The pain threshold difference between male and female presence is thought to be a “primordial response” effecting human beings and other animals. Showing pain is a sign of weakness that, should this occur on the wrong end of town, could have implications on survival, this is the way it has been since the O.K. Corral. The impact of this discovery for medical settings is whether it makes a difference if your therapist is male or female? In the rehab clinic, where we overcome the pain of injury or surgery, does it make a difference if the therapist is male or female? How does this affect the efficacy of drugs, and who is asking the patient that question of how they feel? Does an accident victim at a crash site have a better chance of survival, of avoiding shock, if the first EMT they see is male? In more routine stress situations, are there efficiencies and capacities affected or compromised by the sexual ratio of the participants? How does this affect the role of women in combat if it turns out that none of this response is intellectual but built into our biology? There is a flipside to this. Does the male patient in the female presence have lower blood pressure, feel less aggressive, more at ease, less likely to mask pain? All this I knew as a farmboy, when I noticed stuff didn’t start hurting till I got to the house. Justin Isherwood is an awardwinning writer, a Wisconsin farmer, humorist, author and contributor to numerous collections and publications including: Badger CommonTater, Isthmus, and Newsday. He is an essayist for the radio program, BookMarks & Art, airing on a CBS affiliate in central Wisconsin. His books include: Christmas Stones & the Story Chair, Book of Plough, Farm Kid, and most recently, Pulse.

om McKay’s novel West Fork reads at times like a nostalgic Jerry Apps memoir. On Aug. 27, 1968, new college graduate Jim Blair finds himself at the Plum River Elementary School at West Fork, a western Illinois crossroads village, preparing to teach his first seventh and eighth grade students. Young Mr. Blair is uncertain as he faces both his eager scholars and his unfamiliar rural community. Perhaps predictably he becomes a successful teacher and basketball coach, and an integral part of social fabric of the district. And along the way, he finds love. But the story becomes elegiac as well, a narrative of loss. McKay selects particular days to dramatize his novella, beginning with Aug. 27, 1968 and ending on June 23, 1995. Over the 27-year time period, Blair’s achievements are diminished by the sense of loss as time passes. He sees his idyllic school closed because of consolidation, the basketball team he coaches a victim of that progress; farmers struggling but losing their land to mega-agricultural enterprises; the village of West Fork shrinking until it becomes unrecognizable. And his love is lost. The Vietnam War is a backdrop for the story; the divisiveness that conflict created in the population of the entire country disrupts West Fork as well, and in a sense, the war becomes an abstract character in the narrative. While McKay’s first person narrator makes the story seem a memoir, the tale is fiction. The author is a historian and museum consultant who, for more than two decades, worked as Coordinator of the Office of Local History at the State Historical Society of Wisconsin. Although his fictional character hails from Illinois, the protagonist’s adventures take him into Wisconsin. Despite the empathetic personality of the Jim Blair character and the engaging aspect of his story, the tale is flawed in two respects. First, Blair is essentially an innocent Jesse Stuart (The Thread that Runs So True) schoolteacher character, but he casually relates rather graphically his intimate romantic adventures. But more unsettling, the plotline takes unexpected twists that require a substantial suspension of disbelief, allowing our hero at last to enjoy true love. This reader enjoyed the book in part because he began his teaching career in 1966 at a small high school in a rural community. School consolidation, the disappearance of the small family farm, and the loss of a village’s role as community center are historical facts of life, as was the destructive impact of the Vietnam War. But the hopeful idealism of young teachers who, despite low pay and challenging working conditions, devote lives to students, remain an inspiration in our society.

“Painting is easy when you don’t know how, but very difficult when you do.” — EDGAR DEGAS
Questions & Artists: Roberta Raymond by RANDY RASMUSSEN
I
was fortunate to meet yet another interesting Door County resident this time after introducing a featured speaker, Tom Nachreiner, to the Door County Art League. Roberta L. Raymond (or “Bobbie”) has authored two children’s books and is an accomplished illustrator, watercolorist, traveler and sociologist. Her latest book, Three Sea Tales, is available from The Book Table online at BookTable.net. The book is also available at The Paint Box Gallery in Ephraim, Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Ephraim, and in the Al Johnson’s gift shop in Sister Bay. Some of her watercolor illustrations from her latest book are on display until the end of August at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Ephraim. Randy Rasmussen (RR): Will you describe to our readers how you became interested in art? Bobbie Raymond (BR): I know most artists would say their pursuit of art was life long. To me art was always one of my main interests. In high school I was fortunate to win a National Scholastic Award for a pen and ink drawing and the piece was sent to Washington, D.C. I took classes in high school that prepared me for college and this did not allow me to take as many art classes as I would have liked. RR: What was the first medium you remember working in? BR: The first medium was crayons. I then started working in pen and ink. Growing up in Chicago we, as a family, went many times to the Art Institute and I marveled at the beautiful paintings. I always sketched growing up and as my career moved forward I began taking classes. Coming to Door County I have taken over 50 classes at the Peninsula Art School. At home I became interested in watercolor after watching the Tom Lynch watercolor instruction on television. RR: Reading your book, Three Sea Tales, I noticed the beautiful colors and transpar-
ency of your illustrations. What colors are on your current palette? BR: For blues I use the old standard, Ultramarine Blue, along with Cobalt Blue and Manganese. Yellows are primarily Aureolin, Lemon and Cadmium. My go-to reds are Vermillion, Cadmium Red and sometimes Opera. RR: What about paper? BR: I think people have to understand how important paper is in watercolor painting. I love Fabriano paper; currently I use the 300-pound weight. I occasionally use Winsor & Newton or Waterford. RR: What do you think is essential to a good watercolor painting or any painting? BR: In our conversation we discussed drawing. I think one has to have a good composition and then it is, as we discussed, a good solid drawing. In my opinion drawing is the basis for all good art. RR: For the readers, name your three favorite watercolorists. BR: I can only name three? RR: Only three. BR: The first would be the great Winslow Homer and then, of course, John Singer Sargent. And then Eugène Delacroix. [She also mentioned favoring the work of Beatrix Potter because of her work illustrating nature.] RR: All great artists. How often do you paint? BR: I draw every day. I paint everyday in the summer but in the winter it is not as frequent. In the summer I do many miniatures sometimes using them as note cards. RR: Is there another children’s book coming? BR: I don’t think so. It was my plan in my 75th year to complete several things and they were completed. I am now working on new projects. I was happy with the way both books
(Clockwise from left) “Striped Coral-Root Orchid.” “Ram’s-Head Lady’s-Slipper Orchid.” Flowers. Sunflowers and Birds. Pink Flowers. Sunflowers. “Showy Lady’s-slipper Orchid.” “River Rafting.”
[the other being Amy and the Amaryllis] turned out and enjoyed doing the illustrations. RR: This is one question I enjoy asking artists – in our increasingly technological world, do you think fine art has a place? BR: I think there will always be people, maybe all of mankind, that have a need to express themselves and create. The cave drawings in Lascaux show the exquisite need man has to put feelings and emotion in a viewable form. History is art and art is history. RR: Thank you.

POPELKA TRENCHARD FINE ART GLASS GALLERY
Bazyli Studio Wearable Art invites the community to come and experience their contemporary as well as historical jewelry series titled “Fragments.” Skye and Peter Ciesla are resident artists of this destination gallery a few miles north of Baileys Harbor. “The series began several years ago when a dear friend gave me some Anasazi pottery shards he had collected in his former home, the Desert Southwest,” said Skye. “I was intrigued and touched that he gave them to me and promised myself to one day create a beautiful piece of jewelry incorporating the shards. They sat in a clear glass jar in my studio for a couple of years and in 2013, Peter and I designed a piece with them. The necklace sold almost instantly at Linden Gallery. During the winter of 2014, we began the search for more Anasazi shards…we also received some Chinese porcelain pottery shards from the Ming Dynasty period. We began our ‘Fragments’ series in the summer of 2014, with the first showing at Linden Gallery in August.” Peter adds, “We loved working on the pieces, and have decided to continue the series. People have such a positive and enthusiastic response to it.” The work will be featured Aug. 28 through Labor Day weekend. There will be extended gallery hours on Aug. 28 until 7 pm. Regular gallery hours are 10 am to 5 pm Wednesday through Saturday, until mid-October. Bazyli Studio is located at 2551 Ahrens Rd., Baileys Harbor. For more information call 920.839.2526.

Clarence Scherer and photographic montage artist Susan Wemmert. Scherer, who owns A Decorator’s Gallery in Egg Harbor with his wife Mary Anne, focuses on Door County landscapes and the hidden wonders of nature. He was always interested in photography but did not make a serious pursuit of it until he studied with naturalist and nature photographer Roy Lukes in 2005. Since then he has documented the villages, roadways, farms and parks of Door County, as well as unique natural settings that many people overlook. He does his own printing on fine art paper, photo paper and canvas. For Wemmert, growing up in Southeastern Wisconsin and now residing in Door County has instilled in her “a deep appreciation of nature’s beautiful canvas and the restorative power of art.” Combining collage and digital photography offers endless possibilities for her exploration of the natural setting. Photographic montage has allowed her to “tap into my creative spirit,” said Wemmert, who draws much of the inspiration from
5 her woodland home outside of Baileys Harbor. The Door County Art League Gallery is open Monday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm, and Sunday, 11 am to 3 pm. It is located in the courtyard of the Top of the Hill shops in Fish Creek. For more information visit doorcountyartleague.org.
5 Materials from Another Time Angela Lensch Gallery presents jewelry artist Kay Flick on Sept. 5 and 6, noon to 5 pm. Become acquainted with jewelry that delightfully encompasses metaphysical energies while also providing a bit of pizzazz that perfectly compliments a favorite blouse, dress or t-shirt. A lifelong Wisconsin resident, Flick studied Studio Arts at the University of Wisconsin. In addition to creating art jewelry, she’s done extensive work in textiles and porcelain, won numerous awards and has had work accepted into the Indianapolis Museum of Art, the Neville Public
Museum and the J. Michael Kohler Art Museum. Flick makes one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces inspired by natural minerals, rocks and gemstones, each one with a story that dates back thousands to millions of years. Once captivated by a stone, she explores its myriad details and begins the painstaking process of adorning it with countless tiny beads. Finished necklaces are boldly designed and intricately crafted with visual movement, reflections and shadows reminiscent of rivers and caves. Flick said, “I enjoy the process of fitting precision cut beads together, the shimmer of facets and the compliment of irregular stone chips. Yet I cherish the imperfections in beads handmade by kindred craftspeople from around the world, other cultures. I feel closer to them. It’s a way of knowing them.” Angela Lensch Gallery, open daily 10 am to 5 pm, is located at the south end of Egg Harbor, halfway between the Patricia Shoppe and Chief Oshkosh at 7653 Hwy 42.

6 Raku Is Magic Dee Santorini kind of smells like smoke and there’s a residue of ash in her hair. “I’m just taking the last pieces out of my raku kiln,” says Santorini. After taking the clay pieces out of the kiln, Santorini works the tongs around the clay and swings it up out of the kiln. She carries it to the sandpit, where she sets down the hot piece of clay. She then drops her tongs, rushes over to grab a washtub full of shredded paper and wood shavings, and dumps it on top of the piece. Smoke billows out around the edges.

“Raku is magic,” says Santorini. “It’s mostly the smoke. It seeps into the unglazed clay and turns the white clay a smoky black color. Then it gets into your glaze, and makes it hazy and metallic looking.” Santorini has built an eight-foot obelisk for the Labor Day weekend art show at Gills Rock Coffee. Basically a four-sided pyramid, she and husband Bruce Santorini built a structure that the clay panels rest on. Then everything is placed on the structure, glued down, grouted and sealed. “We participated in Egg Harbor’s 50th anniversary, producing a rakufired egg that lit up. It just seems right to bring our new obelisk to Door County.”
Gills Rock Coffee is located at 12625 Highway 42.

8 8 New Paintings and Jewelry Edgewood Orchard Galleries will host an Exhibit VII opening reception on Sept. 5, 4 – 7 pm. The exhibit features the artwork of painters Susan Hale, Tom Nachreiner and Dale Olsen and jeweler Michelle Zjala Winter. The artists will speak about their work at 5 pm in the gallery courtyard. Nachreiner will hold a free painting demonstration on Sept. 6, 1 – 3 pm in the courtyard. Hale’s paintings are a reflection of her personality, which is cheerful, bright and bubbly. “I have always loved to draw and paint.
Living, vacationing, and traveling in the Wisconsin countryside is a constant inspiration to me. It seems everywhere I look I see a painting.” Driven by a passion for excellence, Nachreiner spent his earlier years as a nationally known figurative illustrator. More recent years have afforded him the privilege of a fine art rebirth, painting from his heart “en plein air” and giving year-round workshops. He was awarded “People’s Choice Award” while participating in the Door County Plein Air Festival. Olsen’s oil paintings seek to give the viewer a sense of peace and majesty. As an architect, Olsen has been able to bring scale, proportion
and draftsmanship to his work as an artist. Winter’s jewelry creations are fabricated using traditional techniques and flat raw materials, such as sheet and wire, in sterling silver, gold and copper. The exhibit will run through Sept. 23. Edgewood Orchard Galleries is located at 4140 Peninsula Players Road, midway between Egg Harbor and Fish Creek. For more information, call 920.868.3579, visit edgewoodorchard.com or find them on Facebook. Numbers correspond to the gallery guide on pages 12–15.

From the Tony, Oscar and Pulitzer Prize-winning author of “Doubt” and “Moonstruck.” The Wisconsin première of a sweet and prickly love story featuring Anthony and Rosemary, 40-ish next door neighbors in rural Ireland, who are caught in their families land dispute.

EYE ON THE NIGHT SKY
Upcoming Lunar Eclipse by DAVID UDELL President of Door Peninsula Astronomical Society
T
he Lunar Eclipse has, throughout history and cultures, been subject of myth and legend. At varying times and circumstances they have been signs of both good and evil omens. Eclipses have been used to predict the life or death of monarchs or the results of battles. In 1504, Columbus was able to consult his Calendarium and used the prediction of a total lunar eclipse to save his crew from starvation. Stranded in Jamaica, Columbus and crew had worn out their welcome. After six months, the Jamaican indigenes had begun to hold back food and water in an effort to get them to depart. Columbus threatened the natives with famine and disease using a “sign” from heaven of the darkening and reddening of the full moon unless they were supplied. The Eclipse occurred and the threat resulted in the Jamaican chiefs promising to supply the crew as long as needed. As you see, Astronomers have been able to predict lunar eclipses for a long time. But this goes as well for Solar Eclipse.
(Top) The anatomy of a lunar eclipse. (Above) Solar eclipses occur during New Moon when the moon passes between the earth and the sun. Total eclipses are visible where the darkest part of the moon’s shadow (umbral shadow) sweeps across the earth. Submitted images. When total solar eclipses occur, they are visible to only about a half a percent of the Earth’s surface! Total solar eclipses occur only once every one to two years. The next total solar eclipse visible in the U.S. will be Aug. 21, 2017 and closest location to Door County is Carbondale, Illinois. About 15 lunar eclipses occur every decade with about half being total – the entire moon enveloped in earth’s shadow. The next lunar eclipse, a total eclipse, will occur on the night of Sept. 27 and early morning of Sept. 28. The penumbra begins at 7:12 pm CDT. Penumbral is the term used for the time the moon darkens as the earth’s shadow blocks some of the sunlight. The partial eclipse (actual shadow) begins at 8:07 pm as the moon passed into the umbra of the earth. Total eclipse begins at 9:11 pm
with mid-eclipse at 9:47 pm and lasts until 10:23 pm. Then the penumbra ends at 12:22 pm on Sept. 28! [See the diagram for a better explanation of the terms]. The Door Peninsula Astronomical Society (DPAS) is planning a viewing for the night of Sept. 27 starting at 7 pm. So if the sky is clear, join us at the L.E.O. Observatory, 2200 Utah St., for a view through a variety of telescopes and binoculars to see this celestial event. The September meeting of DPAS will be Tuesday, Sept. 1 at 7 pm and the topic is “How Astronomers Measure Size and Distance” presented by David Udell and “Latest News in Astronomy” will be presented by Dr. John Beck. Hope to see you then and at the observatory on the Lunar Eclipse!

On Aug. 30, 1:30 – 3:30, Crossroads at Big Creek and Heritage Village at Big Creek, in collaboration with members of the local Sons of Norway lodge, present “Our Norwegian Heritage Day.” Members of the Sons of Norway will share their traditions at Heritage Village Displays and demonstrations of woodworking, tatting, weaving and hardanger. There will also be good food and good Norwegian humor. Drive or stroll down the trail to the Hanson House for a tour of an authentic Norwegian home built in the 1850s. Meet at the Heritage Village at the Crossroads. Admission is free.
On Aug. 29 at 11 am, take a hike through the wooded areas of Crossroads’ Ida Bay preserve. This is a moderate hiking difficulty. Hikers should meet at the intersection of canal road and Buffalo Ridge Trail. The hike is free and open to the public. The Collins Learning Center, located at 2041 Michigan in Sturgeon Bay, is open daily 2 – 4:30 pm and during scheduled activities. Trails at Crossroads, Big Creek Cove (off Utah Street) and the Ida Bay Preserve are open at all times and admission is free. There will be a traditional Belgian Kermiss on Aug. 30, 11 am – 4 pm, at the Belgian Heritage Center at 1255 County Road DK, Brussels (on the curve in Namur near the historical markers). A Kermiss is a traditional Belgian harvest celebration that is open to the whole community featuring Belgian food, beer, music and camaraderie. Kermisses were traditionally celebrated in each small community in the Belgian settlement in consecutive weeks before Labor Day and extending into October. The celebration would begin with a Catholic Mass followed by gatherings in the homes, taverns and dancehalls. Relatives and friends would come from all the neighboring areas to partake of the abundance of food. The Mad Cats will provide their mix of high-energy music from 12:30 to 3:30 pm. Other activities include craft exhibitions and guided tours of the nearby Belgian American Clubhouse, formerly a Catholic school and chapel. This year the author Christine DeSmet will sign copies of her new book, Five-Alarm Fudge, which takes place in Door County. The Belgian food served includes booyah, trippe (a Belgian sausage similar to bratwurst), hamburgers, jutt, Belgian pie, tortes, and old fashioned ice cream made by using the power drive on a tractor. All proceeds benefit the Belgian Heritage Center and its ongoing projects. The community is invited to bring old family and community pictures for volunteers to scan and include in the organization’s collection. The Clearing Folk School is celebrating its Annual Gathering on Sept. 12, starting with a 10:45 am performance of Beauty of the Wild masque, a one-act play. Directed by Door Shakespeare’s Executive Director, Amy Ludwigsen, this masque was commissioned by Clearing founder Jens Jensen from Chicago playwright Kenneth Sawyer Goodman in 1913. Social hour will then begin in the big tent in the Homestead Meadow at 11:15 am with a picnic lunch at noon. Following the picnic, annual volunteer and instructor awards will be
presented in recognition of their efforts and support of this special place. After the event, attendees are welcome to explore and hike The Clearing grounds until 4 pm. Cost for the event is $20 per person, and pre-registration is required by Sept. 4. For more information, visit theclearing.org or call 920.854.4088. The Door County Master Gardeners are pleased to invite the public to join them at the Taste of the Garden Door and Pesto Festo on Sept. 12, 1 – 4 pm.

There will be photos, artifacts and refreshments located at the church, 9970 Moravia. The cemetery is located at the corner of Willow and South Norway, with continuous trolley service between the cemetery, Moravian Church, and additional parking areas at the Bethany Lutheran Church and behind the Ephraim fire station on North Norway Road.

PRO GOLF TIPS
Life’s A Beach by MATT STOTTERN
The Set Up
t is said by better players that the bunker shot is the easiest shot in golf. While I don’t completely disagree, I would say that most people set themselves up to fail before they ever even arrive to hit their shot. As soon as most amateurs hit their shots into a bunker, they start to worry. Does this sound like you? Try the following technique. Most people I see these days trying to play a bunker shot do it with a set up that makes it more difficult. Give yourself three immediate goals when playing these shots. First and foremost, your goal is to get out of the bunker. Secondly, your goal will be to get the ball on the green. Finally, your goal will eventually be to get the ball close to the hole. If you’re the person who hates to be in bunkers, stick with the first goal for a while.
The issue I see players having is setting up with their bodies too open to the target and the club face too open as well. In other words, for a right-handed player, they aim their bodies to the left and their club face to the right. This is how bunker shots were taught for many years and some very good players still use this technique. The extra variables are what make this difficult and most amateurs should not play the shot this way. Set yourself up square to your target with both your body and your club face. Easy to remember, right? Play the ball forward in your stance. The bottom of your swing will be where your chin is in the middle of your stance. That is where the club will enter the sand, pushing sand into the ball which is about two inches forward of that spot. Have your weight slightly leaning toward the target. The last and most crucial part of the set up is to have the handle of the club pointing toward your belt buckle. Simply put, do not have the handle leaning toward the
I
hole. Having the handle in the proper place engages the bounce of the club. Now make a nice, slow long swing back and forward on the same pace and the ball will pop right out of that bunker. Now spend 15 minutes one day in a bunker hitting practice shots using this set up and slower swing and you will have more success with goal number one. Practice this shot for 15 minutes every week and you will accomplish goal number two. Within a few months you should be approaching goal number three. Have fun at the beach (bunker).

sicians. It’s a mix of old school and new school.
AS: What drew you to the genre? BR: Blues is soul music. It comes from your soul. You can relate to blues music because it’s easy to understand and the music and lyrics are catchy. I guess the simplicity but also the deepness of the music is what got me going.
AS: You cover a lot of songs on your albums – what covers does the audience best respond to? BR: “You’re Just About To Lose Your Clown,” by Ray Charles, that’s a song that people really enjoy all the time. It’s an oldie, it’s one of the first Ray Charles songs and it’s very unknown. I’m not aware of a lot of people who know that song. In fact, a lot of people think it’s my song because they’ve never heard it before … “Too Lazy” by T-Bone Walker and “When My Heart Beats Like A Hammer” by B.B. King … when we hit the first few notes of that one, people kind of go crazy.

Breezy Rodio part of Blues on the Bay’s offerings
by ALYSSA SKIBA alyssa.skiba@ppulse.com
A
mong the stellar lineup of blues musicians who will make their way to the tip of the peninsula for Ellison Bay’s second annual Blues on the Bay on Aug. 29 is Chicago bluesman and frequent Buddy Guy’s Legends headliner Breezy Rodio. The Italian blues guitarist and singer has been playing the blues for more than half his life, a convert from classic rock whose chance meeting with blues singer-songwriter-guitarist Linsey Alexander has led to a successful career as an international blues player. Breezy got his start in the New York scene before deciding to go for broke and make his way to Chicago, a major risk he says has definitely paid off. Describing himself as a musician who tries to “give it a little bit of myself but also…keep the tradition going,” Breezy has been at the top of his game the past five
years, creating his own band (Breezy Rodio band) and releasing two albums: Playing My Game Too (2011) and the No. 1 Chicago Blues chart-topper So Close to It (2014). As the leader of Alexander’s band, he has also worked on three of Alexander’s albums: If You Ain’t Got It, Been There Done That, and Come Back Baby. The Peninsula Pulse recently caught up with Breezy, who just hours before the Aug. 18 interview had signed a distribution deal with Universal Music Group. Here is what Breezy had to say about the blues, his influences, and what’s to come: Alyssa Skiba (AS): What is your first memory of the blues? Breezy Rodio (BR): Like every guy my age when I was a teenager, I got into rock music – Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath and Deep Purple. Then eventually I went back to the roots until I moved to Chicago and I discovered Albert King, Muddy Waters, Jimmy Rogers, Jimmy Reed, Little Walter … and that’s what really got me into it.
AS: You have been playing music with Linsey Alexander for a number of years. How did that come about? BR: Me and Linsey, we go way back. That’s the guy I grew up with musically because he’s the first guy who gave me an opportunity to play on stage. I was a little boy pretty much when I started with him, I was in my early 20s and I really had a lot to learn – I still do, but I was very green. Linsey, at the time, was working everywhere. We traveled the world together; we went to South America, Canada, Europe, all over the United States. We were playing 35, 40 shows a month and I did that for 10 years. In terms of musical experience and hours on stage, that’s money in the bank for a musician because the experience you get on stage, that’s very valuable. Linsey gave me an opportunity to shine, to learn a lot about the music business, how to lead a band, and how to be a better musician. AS: When did you start your own blues band? BR: I started my blues band (Breezy Rodio) in 2010 when I was still with Linsey. I released my CD called Playing My Game Too and it went pretty good because I had a lot of known artists on it, like Lurrie Bell, Bob Stroger, Rockin’ Johnny, and I started hustling the first gigs here and there, like at Buddy Guy’s Legends and the House of Blues and slowly but surely I was able to be a regular at those clubs and then eventually became a headliner with my band on a regular basis. AS: Describe your style. BR: I love to pay tribute to the old guys who were great composers and great mu-
AS: Where do you go from here? BR: Things are moving kind of fast for me. To be honest with you, I’m very overwhelmed by all of this because I was not really expecting all of this. I’m doing Japan in October and then I’m touring all South America in November and then Europe in December, and … I was thinking, wow, this is really happening and I’m not really sure how I got to that point. I’m definitely very thankful for what’s happening and I guess after years of dedication to music and the instrument, learning and paying dues, eventually it will pay back and as I said, that’s an old B.B. King line, “Good things come to those who wait.” And that’s definitely my case. I’m still waiting, obviously, but I can say that if you don’t give up and you’re devoted to the music, eventually things will happen.
Blues On the Bay Blues on the Bay will be held Saturday, Aug. 29 at the Ellison Bay Community Park from 3 – 9 pm, rain or shine. Featured musicians include Grammy-winning blues artist Billy Flynn with Mike Morrison on bass and Steve Bass on drums; Chicago blues artist Breezy Rodio; and Door County’s own Mighty Mouth and Dirty Deuce. Food, beer from Door County Brewing Co., wine, and Island Orchard Cider will be available for purchase, but guests are welcome to bring their own picnic (and chairs) to this free concert. Parking is available near the park and a shuttle will be provided at the Liberty Grove Historical Society. Freewill donations collected during this event will benefit Door County Secret Santa, a nonprofit organization that anonymously pays heating bills for struggling Door County families.

AS: What musicians have had the most influence on you? BR: Definitely B.B. King, Nat King Cole, Ray Charles, Lurrie Bell, those are definitely some of my biggest influences and then when I moved to Chicago, I met a lot of really great musicians who I was lucky enough to study with. Guy King was one of them who taught me a lot, in terms of playing the guitar and music wise, and Billy Flynn, who will be on the same bill at the festival with me.

Krista Detor Woodwalk Concert Series welcomes back Krista Detor on Aug. 28. Detor always fills the Woodwalk Gallery barn with musical magic. She is what this concert series is all about: an inspired performer, vocalist and pianist, touching hearts with her earthy, husky voice. She teases out of the audience a million emotions ranging from elation to hilarity to thoughtful awe. Detor’s solo albums have reached national and international prominence, including #1 on the Euro-Americana Chart, and placement within the top 10 of the U.S. Folk and Independent Music charts. She was the only American woman invited to The BBC’s Darwin Songhouse Project, Shrewsbury England (2009). Neil Pearson, producer of the project, said, “Krista is one of the

and is distributed by Sounds True/The Relaxation Company. Christian has become known for his creative approaches in his own music. Classically trained in Germany, Hans came to the U.S. in 1982 to pursue a career as a rock bassist and cellist. He quickly got involved in a thriving music scene in Los Angeles and worked with a number of musical luminaries (Robbie Robertson, Gene Clark, Sparks, members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, John Waite, Billy Idol) before a persistent call to discover his own music led him into the genres of world music, meditation music, and a blend of classical and ambient music. His work as a music producer and mixer has been captured on countless recordings, as well as his creative cello playing which continues to be in demand by artists from around the country. Nanda Devi (named after the second highest mountain in India) features a multitude of esoteric instruments, some of which Christian will play during his concert at Woodwalk. He will also play some material from his most recent trip to Chartres Cathedral where he performed daily as a soloist and with noted modern mystic Andrew Harvey. Woodwalk Gallery is located at 6746 Cty G (seven miles north of Sturgeon Bay, five miles south of Egg Harbor). For more information call 920.868.2912 or 920.495.2928.

he Clearing Folk School in Ellison Bay has been planning and fundraising for four years to build a building for classes in metal arts and crafts. Well, the time is drawing near for planning to turn into reality – groundbreaking for the building is slated for the spring of 2016. Classes in the building should commence later in the year. The Forge at The Clearing will be home to classes in forging (blacksmithing), metal sculpture, metal casting and other kinds of metal arts. Metals

classes are foundational to the “folk school” tradition. The ability to build a metals program will be a big step in The Clearing’s evolution. The road from an idea to a functioning building can be long and winding, as has been the case with the Forge at The Clearing. It’s not unreasonable to think that this particular road began 70 or 80 years ago, since there’s little doubt that Clearing founder Jens Jensen would have loved for his students in the 1930s and 1940s to forge metal during their time at The Clearing. But many years would pass before the seed of an idea finally germinated, when, in
2009, Clearing supporter Jean Barrett offered to make a generous donation to The Clearing. Jean offered to donate her late husband’s blacksmith tools, equipment and supplies to The Clearing. Her husband, David Nevalainen, had established The Forge at Cedar Ponds, north of Baileys Harbor, about 10 years earlier and had taught classes in forging there, including classes for The Clearing’s Winter Program. Jean’s generous offer was accepted by The Clearing’s Board of Directors. There was a catch, however – accepting the donation meant The Clearing was going to have to build a new building! The Forge at The Clearing will be located near The Clearing’s Workshop, which was built in 2007 and serves as the home for classes in wood craft (wood carving, wood turning and furniture making), glass craft (stained glass, glass fusing and glass bead making), and paper arts (paper making, paper marbling and book binding) to name a few. The close proximity of the two buildings will facilitate classes that combine two disciplines, for instance, a furniture making class in which the students also forge their own hardware—pulls, hinges, etc. Or a broom making or basket making class in which students also forge their own broom or basket handles. Fundraising, as it can be and so often is, has been slow but steady for the Forge at The Clearing. About 70 percent of what is needed to build the building has been raised, most of it through donations from individuals.

But two local foundations have generously provided grants for the project. Roger Kuhns has been a generous donor of materials. He donated old barn beams and posts from which a porch roof will be built along the west side of the new building and from which a small storage building was framed last year in a Clearing class on timber framing. This storage building will be used to store metal stock for classes in the new building. Blacksmith Dan Nauman has been a generous and ardent supporter of The Forge at The Clearing. Dan owns Bighorn Forge near Kewaskum, Wisconsin, and got involved in The Clearing’s project early on. He had helped David Nevalainen with his forge outside Baileys Harbor and had helped Jean Barrett inventory David’s tools and equipment after David’s death. Dan has served as The Clearing’s consulting blacksmith during the entire building planning phase. And Dan will certainly be one of the blacksmiths who will teach classes at The Clearing once the new building is up and running. Just recently, Dan spent three days at The Clearing demonstrating forging to crowds as large as 25. His demonstration “projects” were primarily the tools – coal rakes, shovels and tongs – that will be used by the students who will take forging classes at The Clearing. Dan will also build the actual forges (work stations) and side draft chimneys in The Forge at The Clearing when the time comes. For more information on The Forge at The Clearing, call 920.854.4088, stop by The Clearing’s visitor center at 12171 Garrett Bay Road in Ellison Bay, or visit theclearing.org.

Peninsula Arts and Humanities Alliance, Inc., which contributes Culture Club throughout the summer season, is a coalition of nonprofit organizations whose purpose is to enhance, promote and advocate the arts, humanities and natural sciences in Door County.
From Sept. 20 – 25, Lawrence University’s Björklunden is offering these seminars: “Exploring How the United States’ Culture of Conflict Creates Political Quagmires” with Laura C. Smythe and “America at MidCentury: The Early Fifties in Film, Literature, and Popular Culture” with Jack Rhodes. Regardless of political affiliation, most people in the United States agree that its political system is a mess. In fact, it is often a remarkably unproductive quagmire. There are two political parties with platforms that appear to be constructed on the basis of opposing one another. Every day we read and hear about American politicians engaging in name-calling and mud-slinging and about gridlock in Congress. What is this conflict culture in the United States? And what impact does that have on its politicians and political system? In this seminar, both of these topics will be explored through the study of conflict theory and through the analysis of several memorable and fairly recent political events. The era following World War II and encompassing U.S. involvement in Korea and the Cold War continues to fascinate those interested in American popular culture. During the second term of Harry Truman and the first term of Dwight Eisenhower, Americans, weary of war and trying to readjust to peacetime normality, confronted a fast-changing world which included the advent of television, the growth of drive-in movie theaters, the rapidly-expanding use of automobile and airplane transportation, a technological revolution in both the household and workplace, the fear of Communists in the neighborhood, and the threat of nuclear annihilation. Against this tumultuous and energetic background, filmmakers, screenwriters, poets, short story writers, musicians, and radio and television personalities all made distinctive artistic contributions that defined their era and its place in American cultural history. “America at Mid-Century” will re-examine some classic icons of the popular arts of America in the early fifties, with special attention to Hollywood’s depiction of this unique historical moment. Seminar classes are held at Björklunden’s lodge, just south of Baileys Harbor, and meet weekday mornings and some evenings. Each seminar includes meals prepared by Björklunden’s resident chef. For complete course descriptions, fees and registration dates call 920.839.2216, email samantha.a.szynskie@lawrence.edu or visit lawrence.edu/s/bjorklunden/bjorkseminars.

his summer, costume design has taken Fish Creek resident Karin Kopischke to London in the 1950s, Ireland in the 2000s, and the American South in the 1980s. Two of those shows, Dial M for Murder and Outside Mullingar, were costumed by Kopischke for Peninsula Players Theatre and the other, Steel Magnolias, for Third Avenue Playhouse. For each show, the design process begins with a meeting between Kopischke and the director, where they discuss the play, and what the director hopes to achieve through the costumes. “The director kind of has the final say, and the initial say about how things are done,” she said. Then Kopischke begins to research the production. “If we use Steel Magnolias as an example,” she starts, “It was pretty straightforward. It was set in the 1980s and it was about six women.” For part of the research process, Kopischke creates an image collage of the time period, and of certain actresses or people whose look she wants to emulate. For the Steel Magnolias character Truvy, who is a hairstylist, images of 1980s hair stylists and beauticians were included in the collage. For another Steel Magnolias character, Annelle, who has a quirky, vintage style, Kopischke’s collage was composed of images of Zooey Deschanel and Elaine from Seinfeld. Kopischke’s daughter, Anya, played the role of Annelle and requested that her character wear glasses.

The “Midget Clown” costume for First Stage Children’s Theater’s production of Big Fish. “She thought of her character as a more quirky character, so she wanted glasses to add that quirkiness, and also as something her character could hide behind,” she said. The actors that Kopischke costumes often make requests related to their characters’ appearance. “The actor comes to the first fitting, and they have thought about this character just as much as I have,” she said, adding “In some cases we are on the same page.” The costuming process begins long before most productions are cast. After a collage for each character is complete, Kopischke begins a rough sketch of their costumes.

swatches that form a little tassel of the material selected for the costume. Some of the material is sourced locally, from Jo-Ann or Hancock Fabrics. Other material is purchased online, in Chicago, and New York. For the Peninsula Players production of Dial M for Murder, all of the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s costumes were built. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It took place in London in the 1950s and it was all very elegant,â&#x20AC;? she said. Kopischke oversees the production and fitting of the costumes, but rarely builds them. The complex, fantastical costumes that she designed for the First Stage Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Theater in Milwaukee production of Big Fish were built in-house. For smaller and more contemporary productions, like Steel Magnolias, Kopischke searches thrift shops and vintage stores for costumes. Costumes for the recent Peninsula Players production of Outside Mullingar, which takes place on a farm in Ireland in the early 2000s, were also shopped. Contemporary plays present extra challenges for the costume designer, and sometimes tests the relationship between the actor and designer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For period plays, it is easier for them to trust the costume idea because it is something they are not familiar with. The contemporary plays, they know exactly what they are supposed to look like,â&#x20AC;? Kopischke said. Period productions give Kopischke an opportunity to learn more about clothing and history. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fascinating for me to look at the clothes in different centuries, countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cultures. Those are the most fun to research and design,â&#x20AC;? she said. The historical research that Kopischke conducts prior to creating a costume ensures that characters are accurately dressed for the time period the play is set in, for their social class, and culture, and also creates a more specific, personal story for each character. Lived-in â&#x20AC;&#x153;grittyâ&#x20AC;? costumes provide more satisfaction for Kopischke than pretty period dramas, and lend a more personal history to each garment. To achieve a lived-in quality, she distresses the costumes after they are built and sourced, adding holes and wear to new clothing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like dealing with the reality of the clothing they are wearing, versus a pretty costume.â&#x20AC;?

Rogue Theater presents Bourbon and Laundry and Lone Star Aug. 28 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 30; these are both one-act plays by James McClure and directed by Stuart Champeau. When Rogue Theater began just two-anda-half years ago, one of its first productions was Lone Star as a standalone one-act show. Lone Star, along with the companion piece Laundry and Bourbon, were played more than a decade ago when Isadoora Theater Company put the two pieces on at Third Avenue Playhouse and the Door Community Auditorium. Laundry and Bourbon is set on the front porch of Roy and Elizabethâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home in

Maynard, Texas, on a hot summer afternoon. Elizabeth and her friend Hattie are whiling away the time folding laundry, watching TV, sipping bourbon and Coke, and gossiping about the many open secrets which are so much a part of small-town life. In its companion piece, Lone Star, the story takes place in the cluttered backyard of a small-town Texas bar. Roy, a brawny, macho type who had once been a local high school hero, is back in town after a hitch in Vietnam and trying to reestablish his position in the community. Joined by his younger brother, Ray (who worships him), Roy sets about consuming a case of beer while regaling Ray with tales of his military and amorous exploits.

The Emissary, which is a movie that was selected to open the 2015 Green Bay Film Festival, will play Sept. 10 at the Skyway Drive-In, around 7:30 pm. At 6 pm, live music from the Door County band Small Forest will start the celebration. The Emissary’s ten-foot diameter spaceship prop will be on display. Concessions such as food and Emissary and Small Forest merchandise will be available for purchase. The Emissary is a comical, family-friendly science fiction quest shot in Door County. Mindfulness matters in a race to find a time bomb from outer space. “What do the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald, Door County cheese curds and space colonization have in common? They’re all included in the playful indie sci-fi movie The Emissary, directed by Tim Erskine, and written and produced by Tim and Holly Erskine….Tim (a mechanical engineer) made a lot of calculations to make the sci-fi as authentic as could be. Great blend of art and science. The special effects were so well done,” said Dr. John Beck of the Door Peninsula Astronomical Society. For more information visit theemissarymovie.com.

Stage Door Theatre Co. presents Sylvia at Third Avenue Playhouse through Sept. 12. Sylvia, written by A.R. Gurney and directed by Robert Boles, is about husband and wife, Greg and Kate, and a homeless dog named Sylvia. Greg and Kate are city-dwellers who are adjusting to life after children. Kate’s career as an academic is taking off, while Greg is being transferred to ever more meaningless and unsatisfying jobs. On a walk in the park, Greg finds a homeless dog with a tag indicating her name is Sylvia. He brings her home, fleas and all. Sylvia immediately establishes herself as Greg’s constant companion. She does what pets do: she loves him unconditionally. Soon Greg is avoiding work so he can bask in her delightful company. Kate recognizes a rival for Greg’s affections and sees a serious threat to her marriage. She tries to have Greg give Sylvia up. Soon Greg must choose between wife and dog.

As part of this year’s Labor Day series, Midsummer’s Music will perform in the majestic Wilson/Beck home on the shores of Green Bay. Photo by Mark Kunstman. Midsummer’s Music Festival returns for its Labor Day series featuring ten concerts beginning Aug. 28 and continuing through Sept. 7. Audiences can enjoy beautiful chamber music performed by top tier musicians in unique venues across Door County. The biggest highlight of this year’s Labor Day series is the Grand Finale concert and joint benefit on Labor Day – Sept. 7 at 3 pm – at the brand new Cook-Albert Fuller Center at the Ridges Sanctuary, marking the first public performance in the new exhibit space. Popular classical music personality Lisa Flynn of WFMT radio in Chicago will host the event, sharing her own interesting insights on each of the works performed. The Midsummer’s Music ensemble will perform glorious works by Zdenek Fibich, Paul Schoenfield and Ernest Chausson as part of the “Fervent Passion” series of concerts. Guests will enjoy a delightful array of hors d’oeuvres along with wine and other beverages, including a champagne toast. In addition to commemorative gifts, attendees can also bid on silent auction items and take their chances with a wine-pull. Ridge’s volunteers will take guests on nature hikes to see the beautiful wildflowers along the pastoral trails of the sanctuary, as well as tours of the new building. The Ridges is located at 8166 Hwy. 57 in Baileys Harbor. Tickets are $95 and all of the proceeds from this concert will jointly support the Ridges Sanctuary and Midsummer’s Music. One of the more unique opportunities takes place Sept. 1 at 7:30 pm at the Beck/Wilson residence in Fish Creek. Guests will hear a mesmerizing concert of works by Antonín Dvorák, Astor Piazzolla and Libby Larsen. Wine and delicious hors d’oeuvres will make this a perfect evening. This concert is part of the Moving Sensations series. Tickets are $60. For more information about the Labor Day series, visit midsummersmusic.com or call 920.854.7088.

Brewmaster Danny McMahon promises that once L’automne is gone, it’s gone, to be replaced by his Hiver seasonal on Dec. 1, which will be replaced by a Printemps seasonal, which will be replaced by an Ete seasonal. You can tell which season you’re in by the packaging. An autumnal tree is featured on L’automne; a bare tree will indicate the winter seasonal, and so on. I love the idea that Danny McMahon and Door County Brewing have found their own path through this crowded craft beer love fest. Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead! *** I thought I’d had every Anchor product out there, but, no. I recently discovered that Anchor has an India Pale Ale. Hopped up American IPAs make me yawn because of their sameness. Hop domination does not make for a good beer. Period.

Door County Brewing Co. Brewmaster Danny McMahon with his first brewing award – the People’s Choice Award at the 2015 St. Paul Summer Beer Fest for Silurian Stout. Danny said he’s thinking of getting a chain so he can wear what will undoubtedly be the first of many awards. Photo by Jim Lundstrom. such as that old standby, Oktoberfest. Door County Brewing Co. is now in a position to give thought to seasonals, beginning with L’automne, which hits the streets Sept. 1. Here is the first thing to know about this lovely new beer – room temperature brings out all its beautiful, shadowy, melancholic notes, and they are many. Don’t make the mistake of drinking it straight from the fridge. Let it warm and reap the benefits of wise beermaking. It hits all the right notes of an autumnal beer, yet it’s unlike any fall seasonal in my memory save Capital’s Autumnal Fire, which I once described as liquid candy. L’automne is its own thing. It’s not an Oktoberfest or pumpkin beer, yet it represents the season as well as either of those much replicated representatives of the fall.
It’s as if we have two extremes today – the people who really don’t like the taste of beer drink light beer or overhopped beers. Same thing, but at different ends of the spectrum. But give me a traditional English IPA and I am happy. Even with higher hop content, the malt remains part of the balancing act. If they are such great beers, why don’t more brewers make traditional IPAs, you ask? It’s easier to roll with the trend of overhopping. Who will ever know if you made a mistake if you make beer that tastes like a mistake? A well-made IPA is a thing of beauty. Would that be the case for Anchor IPA, or have they, too, jumped on the

trendy and repugnant bandwagon of blowing hops way out of proportion to the rest of the ingredients? I poured mine into a wide-mouthed English pint mug and was greeted with a lovely floral hop aroma that stimulated my taste buds. After reading the fine print on the neck label, I learned that this is indeed a new (2014) beer from Anchor. They infused two-row barley with fresh hop cones (the bottle label does not name the hop varieties used, but their website does) – Hops: Cascade, Bravo, Apollo; Dry Hops: Cascade, Apollo, Citra, Nelson Sauvin, Haas Experimental No. 431. A distinct hop bite prickles the palate. I try to force my taste buds out of the prickly desert to search for any hint of that balance of maltiness that a great IPA displays. I don’t know. Maybe it’s there. Let me take another sip. Another assault of sharp hop prickles. I like at least some semblance of malt in my IPA. When I don’t examine this beer on my palate and just slosh it down, it tastes just fine. Not a bad beer by any means. I’m sure American IPA fans will love this hop on the bandwagon by Anchor Brewing Co., but me, I’ll take a Worthington’s White Shield, please.

The Cheese Insider
Wisconsin — King of Cheese by MICHAEL C. THOMAS
I
recently attended the annual American Cheese Society conference in Providence, Rhode Island. This organization holds an annual conference and competition for its members of the specialty and artisan cheese community. Every year this event travels to a different city in North America for educational and networking opportunities along with the judging competition. Two years ago the conference was held in Madison, and next year it will be held in Des Moines, Iowa. This year there were 1,779 cheeses, butters, and yogurts, broken into 70plus categories that were entered in the judging competition. There were 267 companies from 31 states and three Canadian providences, ranging in size from small dairies to much larger nationally recognized companies, entered in this year’s competition. The awards ceremony is like the Oscars of cheese making, a gala event where all the winners are announced. For many of the cheese makers that entered a cheese or cheeses in this prestigious competition it is a life-changing event. The hard work, creativity and investment they put forward can turn into instant business when they win a ribbon. Why? Because now the top-line cheese shops and national cheese retailers are calling them to place orders the next day. It has been fun for me to be a part of this (the world of artisan cheese) for the past six or seven years, and I love to sit at the awards ceremony with a group of Wisconsin cheese makers, many of
whom I know personally. They are all on the edge of their seats hoping their name is called. This year I sat behind Debbie and Beth Crave of Crave Brothers Farmstead Cheese in Waterloo, and next to Bruce Workman of Edelweiss Creamery in Monticello. The first category announced was “Cheese Curds” and the Craves won a blue ribbon, the first of five ribbons they won that night. Let the party begin! As one might expect, Wisconsin won the most ribbons of any state (99), followed by California with 47, and Vermont with 44. The leading winners from Wisconsin were: Brenda Jensen, Hidden Springs Creamery (sheep milk cheeses) in Westby with nine ribbons; Klondike Cheese Co. in Monroe with eight ribbons; Sartori Cheese in Plymouth, Hook’s Cheese Company in Mineral Point and Crave Brothers Farmstead Cheese in Waterloo with five each. My good friend, Marieke Penterman of Holland’s Family Cheese in Thorp, swept the “International Style Cheese with Flavor” ribbons for her Gouda Foenegreek, Gouda Cumin, and Gouda Jalapeño. Overall it was a night of good fun and some very happy cheese makers. Saturday night the “Festival of Cheese” took place. If there were ever a chance to overindulge in the consumption of cheese, this would be the time and place. All 1,700-plus cheeses are on display, arranged on tables by category: cheddars, soft ripened, blues, etc. Each table may have as many as 70 cheeses, and the overall challenge is to try and limit the number of cheeses you try, otherwise you may explode into a giant cheese ball.

I start off just fine then I see a cheese that I have heard about, or one that looks really good, and I immediately stray off course. At that point I throw in the white towel, give up on my plan, and grab a beer to help cleanse the palate, and continue my journey through cheese heaven. It is very easy to lose track of just how many cheeses you ate, you just try and remember the ones that you really like. The ever expanding world of artisan cheese continues to draw me in, deeper each day. I feel that we are very fortunate to be living in an area where so many fantastic cheeses are produced. My suggestion is to step outside your comfort zone and try some of the great cheeses made right here in Wisconsin. You will be glad you did.

Dear Mary Pat, I have a friend who likes to test the limits and she’s always doing something daring or foolish and it makes me so nervous to go out with her. The worst incident was last week when we were coming back from our summer job and we ran into a gas station to get some Cokes. She paid for her drink, but put a candy bar in her purse without paying for it. It was pretty busy and the guy helping us didn’t notice. I told her to put it back and she told me to be quiet and to stop being such a baby. When we got outside, I told her that she should just go back in and pay for it and she said it was no big deal, she just did it to see if she could get away with it and that didn’t make her a thief or anything. Am I making too big a deal out of this? A couple of my other friends thought it was funny when she was bragging about it a few days later. Signed, Friend of Sticky Fingers Sturgeon Bay, Wis. Dear Friend of Sticky Fingers, I think you have every right to be upset with your friend since it is stealing. It doesn’t matter if the item is $.20 or $20, when you take something from a store without paying for it, it is stealing. I hope your friend finds better ways to entertain herself than taking candy bars for free. You should maybe try talking to her again and telling her that you don’t think what she did was right. Also, try again to get her to pay for it. If she doesn’t listen, at least you tried to talk sense into her. I’m hoping that this was just a stupid prank and she won’t try something like this again. Nearly everyone has security cameras in their stores and she could easily be caught the next time. Be sure to remind her of that too. I hope she shows more honesty in her summer job. If she starts to get more reckless, it might be time to find a new friend to hang out with. Good luck, Mary Pat Miss Pat was educated at the Finnish Finishing School for Fine Ladies. Eloquent in edifying etiquette, she is fluent in seven languages including the language of love. Mary Pat has generously extended her counsel to you and will answer any and all inquiries.
