Explosion kills Range woman, injures husband Funeral services tor Nancy C. Johnson, 77, Range, are set for Our Savior's Lutheran Church, Amery, at 2 p. on Friday, Feb. 10.

She was killed in a propane explosion Saturday morning in a garage at 657 US 8 in the town of Apple River. The Polk county sheriffs deparment said that the victim and her husband, Stanley, 81, were filling a 1 lb. gas cannister from a 20 lb. propane tank when the smaller unit exploded.

Rice Lake teacher faces two counts Andrea Ebert, 30, was charged with two counts of sexual assault of a child by a school staff member. Charges were filed in Barron county on Monday. Feb. 6, against the Rice Lake middle school teacher, the same day her husband filed for divorce. The alleged victims were two, 17-year-old boys. The incidents reportedly took place over a three month period in Barron and Cameron. In a news report appearing in WEAU.com, Barron Co. Sheriff Chris Fitzgerald said that his department and Rice Lake police began working on the case Wednesday after receiving information from several sources, including a tip from a concerned citizen. Ebert was arrested at school on Friday afternoon. Sheriff Fitzgerald said he met with staff members after the arrest "because we took a teacher out of school . . . and created some commotions." He called it a "tough case," involving multiple occurences off school property, but not involving elementary or middle school pupils. None of the incidents allegedly occurred on school propery. Ebert has been placed on administrative leave.

The incident occurred in the couple's garage. The sheriffs department said that the initial call said that one person was injured and another person was still trapped in the burning building. Stanley Johnson was able to extricate himself from the building. He was treated at Amery Regional Medical Center for bums and transferred to the twin cities. Fire departments from Range and Turtle Lake were called to the scene. The garage was destroyed and the adjacent residence was damaged. In retirement, the Johnsons made crafts, particularly birdhouses, which they sold from their residence. For many years, they operated the Lake Magnor Store at Richardson, south of Clayton. Funeral arrangements are being handled by Williamson-White Funeral and Cremation Services, Amery.

Fatal explosion

. . . Nancy C. Johnson, 77, Range, was killed in a propane explosion Saturday morning in this garage. Her husband, Stanley Johnson, 81, suffered burns and was treated at Amery Regional Medical Center before being trans ferred to the Twin Cities. The site is located on the north side of US 8, just west of Range.

Airport improvements cited at council Amery city council had little on its official plate at its regular monthly meeting on Wednesday, Feb. 1, but it did hear several reports. On its official agenda, the council approved two bartender licenses and an ordinance requiring property owners to install back flow devices on their municipal water systems. Maintenance Supt. Bones McCarty said that the state requirement will prevent unwanted water from entering the municipal system. An an example, he pointed out that a garden hose left connected to an outdoor spigot with watering end in a kids swimming pool could create a siphon effect causing water to flow back into the municipal system. He said that the prevention is a homeowner device attached to

faucet at a cost of a few dollars. McCarty said that city crew will work with homeowners to make sure installation is proper. Jay Griggs, Amery Municipal Airport manager, is celebrating his 10th anniversary on the job. He cited a litany of activities which have occurred during his tenure at the airport. Almost all the activity and construction has been accomplished with a 2.5 percent city contribution. The remaining funds have come from state and federal sources. Griggs pointed out that the airport had fully recovered from the 2005 tornado which ripped through the center of the airport damaging and destroying several hangars and aircraft. One of the important new features at the airport was

installation of a credit card fuel system. Griggs said that last year, the airport sold 6,245 gallons of fuel, 900 gallons of which was for jets. The system generated $30,000 in sales with a profit of $5,587 to the city. He pointed out that when the system was installed in 2006, the city's share of the cost was $400. Other highlights during his tenure included: •Purchase of 20 acres of land for $120,000 in 2006. Much of it has been developed and there are now eight hangar pads ready for development with access to pave taxi-ways. •Some $135,000 in funding was secured in 2008 for snow removal equipment which must be first used for the airport

but then can be used on city streets. •In 2008, $700,000 was spent to redo taxi-ways and $110,000 was made available for sealcoating the runway. •Some $1.25 million was spent to reconstruct parking areas and the entrance road. This project included concrete pads for aviation refueling and a parking area for heavier aircraft to prevent them from causing damage to asphalt areas during hot weather. The airport runway and taxiways have been relit with LED lights which greatly reduces electric costs. Griggs said that $2.35 million has been spent on projects at the airport. The next big activity will be resurfacing the runway which was constructed in 1992.

He said that the federal government sets aside $150,000 a year for airport work in Amery. Griggs said it will take a few years for funds to accumulate to undertake this project. Other comments he made: -Griggs thanked the city for providing a retired police squad car for use as a courtesy vehicle. -The airport is host to a twicea-year sports car rally sponsored by the Minnesota Austin Healy Association. The group uses one of the taxi ways for timed trials, although the airport is not shutdown for the event. The activity brings about 200 persons into the community for a day or two for the event. -The demolition derby during

Farewell Pastor Karyn Bodenschatz Governor Walker signs bill by Hariet Dehlinger

With mixed emotions, Pastor Karyn Bodenschatz, pastor of Trinity-Adams and ZionBig Flats, accepted a call to First Lutheran Church in Onalaska. As their Associate Pastor, she will primarily work in the areas of Worship as well as Youth Leader, two of the aspects of being a Pastor with which she is most passionate. Pastor Karyn, who is originally from Orange County in Southern California, attended Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia, accepted

Pastor Karyn said farewell to Adams and Trinity/Zion Lutheran Churches on January 29.

what would be her first call, at Trinity and Zion on September 20, 2006. The first Sunday she spent in the pulpit in both congregations was November 4, 2006. While she was pastor in Adams County she accompanied the high school students of the two-point parish, partnering with youth from other area churches and traveled to New Orleans, Minneapolis and southern California on mission trips. She has also worked closely with the middle school youth raising money and organizing Health Kits for our sister synod in the south, ravaged by tornadoes. The point of these trips was to teach the young people to live out their faith, going where people live differently than they do and to learn as much as possible from the experience. She came from a huge area of many suburbs, a megalopolis of communities, and couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t possibly imagine how much she would grow to love life in a small rural area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Butâ&#x20AC;? she stated, â&#x20AC;&#x153;God does strange things when we open our lives to him.â&#x20AC;? While spending five years here, she appreciated being

acquainted with so many people and being known by them, being able to attend and participate in so many community events and to be in a place where she could have so many meaningful relationships with community as well as congregational members. Her first winter here, her dad sent her a rabbit fur winter hat, which she used when she shoveled snow. That first winter was full of that white â&#x20AC;&#x153;stuffâ&#x20AC;?. That winter will be a memory she will never forget! Now she will be moving back to a bigger community, which she is excited about. Being able to find a coffee shop near by, shopping, one of her favorite things, in close proximity, and yet, she wonders if she will find relationships similar to the ones she has had in Adams. While she was in Adams she learned the difference between a Red Pine and a White Pine, yet she never learned to milk a cow. She was annoyed to hear people out of the area down-grading Adams County. She has found businesses and a community that is not poor in spirit. She feels good

things are happening in our community. Many people care about the future, meeting the needs of the diversity of people who live here. She has appreciated the relationship that has developed between the two congregations of Trinity and Zion, in the Relay for Life team, brat frys, bible studies, Joint Council meetings and other activities that have benefited both congregations. Trinity and Zion congregations have a history of working with pastors just out of seminary and molding them into individuals who are active in the community as well as the synod. As a result, our pastors become a valuable asset to Adams as well as the LaCrosse area Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Pastor Karyn knows that she leaves us in good hands. Though it will be difficult to find someone to fill her shoes and we will certainly miss her, we wish her well and God speed as she faces the challenges and new experiences that await her.

On February 1, Governor Walker signed Senate Bill (SB) 2 into law, which extends the open enrollment period. SB 2 applies to the upcoming school session. The new period for open enrollment will run from February 6 to the end of April. Traditionally, children in Wisconsin are assigned to school districts based on the location of their parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; home. Since legislation was passed allowing public school choice, interest in open enrollment has continued to grow. The open enrollment application period is the only tuition free opportunity for most parents to apply for their children to attend public school in a school district other than the one in which they live. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The extended open enrollment application period supports parental involvement and shared responsibility for education children,â&#x20AC;? said State Superintendent Tony Evers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Parents who are involved in their childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education make a critical difference in the success of their students and the strength of local public schools. Wisconsinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s open enrollment program is one way for parents to take an active role in their childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Under the current open enrollment law, transportation, in most circumstances, is the responsibility of the parent. However, some school districts may provide partial transportation. Parents with questions should call the nonresident school district office to find out if any transportation will be provided. Reimbursement of a portion of transportation costs is available for families whose children are eligible for free or reduced price school

lunches based on federal income guidelines. To assist parents in submitting open enrollment applications, a directory of public school districts is available on the DPIwebsite at http://www.dpi.wi.gov/sch lsrch3.aspx. More information is available from local school districts or from an open enrollment consultant at DPI, (888) 245-2732 (toll free), or DPIopenenrollment@dpi. wi.gov.

Hospice program teaches to grieve Adams County residents have an opportunity to learn how to understand grief and death through an educational series being offered in Friendship by Hospice Touch of Tomah Memorial Hospital. The eight week series, â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Journey Through Grief,â&#x20AC;? will be held every Monday beginning February 27 through April 16. The program will be held at the Adams Public Library, 569 N. Cedar St. Ste #1 in Adams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very much an unwanted journey, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an important jour-

ney to work through all the grief steps that people go through,â&#x20AC;? said Colleen Langrud, a social worker and bereavement coordinator at Hospice Touch. There is no charge for the program; however, pre-registration is required by calling the Adams Hospice office at (608)339-7500 by Feb. 22. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People who are going through the grief process need to tell their story,â&#x20AC;? Langrud said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It (grief) affects people emotionally, spiritually, socially.â&#x20AC;?

Barneveld Police Chief completes DOJ training

Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen (right) is shown here presenting a certificate to Barneveld Police Chief Jeremy Oyen. Chief Jeremy Oyen of the Barneveld Police Department recently completed the New Chiefs Training Seminar. The training is sponsored by the Wisconsin Department of Justice Training and Standards Bureau and is held annually in Madison. Thirty-six Wisconsin law enforcement chief executives attended this year’s program. Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen addressed participants and congratulated each attendee. “At the Department of Justice, the

theme is ‘we exist to assist.’ This annual seminar demonstrates and strengthens our commitment to our local partners in law enforcement in creating safer communities across Wisconsin,” Attorney General Van Hollen said. Leadership, budgeting, recruitment, labor and community relations were among the topics covered during the weeklong event. Participants also were briefed on the state and federal resources that are available to assist local law enforcement agencies.

Culver’s from front and from there it is put in Cryovac packaging to keep it fresh. The beef is shipped through two national distributors to the restaurants, with deliveries three times a week. Culver said the company is building its 11th restaurant in Phoenix, Ariz., and has two in Tucson, Ariz. "We recently opened that second restaurant in Tucson and had the largest day we've had at any of our restaurants," he said. "We blew the doors off the place. And everyone who came in ordered cheese curds. They didn't even know what they were." Culver said his restaurants are always competing with restaurants of all types in every city where they are located, but he doesn't worry about what the competitors are doing. "We've got to do what we do, and what we do, we've got to do better," he said. "It really boils down to the people skills in our restaurants. When somebody walks into a restaurant and they're greeted with a smile and a please and thank-you, that goes a long ways. When they're not, they remember that too. "Are we successful at that every time? No. But we have to continue to work at it."

Remember To Shop Locally. Support Your Local Businesses!

County Board from front said the county employee highway contract expired on December 31. He said the committee met in December to come up with a policy that would make overtime just like every other business treats it. "We wanted to get something in place before the contract expired and because of the winter weather and possible extra hours that would be worked," said Meyers. He said the policy was forwarded to the administrative committee and to the county board which approved it. Meyers said after the policy was approved they realized a task force was being organized that was going to study compensation and policies that would address the issue again. He noted that there were concerns with the highway policy because the workers are called in at all hours and do put in a lot of extra hours in a day during bad weather. "We realized there probably should be a provision in the policy that the workers get compensation for these odd hours," said Meyers. He said the committee decided to let the task force do its job and the committee would weigh in, which would allow a uniform countywide overtime policy. Griffiths said he feels the policy the board passed should stay in place because it also addresses safety concern. "I talked to a few people and nobody is aware that a snow plow driver sometimes works a full eight hours and then another four or five, depending on the weather. Frankly this is dangerous. I think we need to let this policy stand and if it doesn't work, then bring it back," said Griffiths. He added that the policy is an opportunity to do something that helps the taxpayers by saving money. Meyers said the winter is almost over so it won't be much of an issue much longer and it would give the task force time to do their work. After discussion the board voted 17-2 to rescind the policy. Weaver and Griffiths voted against. Other Business In other business the board: -Appointed Judy Lindholm to the Bloomfield Healthcare Committee; Mark Pinch as the first alternate and Bill Carden to a three year term to the county board of adjustment. -Approved the DNR's list of emergency fire warden's for the county.

Organization preps Dodgeville students for life after school by Steph Carley Going off to college can be a drastic change for a high school student. From living on their own, more homework, and the biggest change and decision of all, deciding what to do with their future. All of these new decisions can be overwhelming. For students involved in extracurricular activities in high school, deciding what to do with the future can be easier. DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America) is an association of marketing students that provides activities to help students prepare for possible jobs in the marketing field. The DECA mission statement says, “DECA prepares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs in marketing, finance, hospitality, and management.” One way DECA helps students become skilled and employable is through competitions. DECA uses competitions as a way to prepare students academically for college, to give them professional responsibility, become experienced leaders, and be community focused. Competitions are based on two written tests, one in economics and one in marketing, and two role-plays with a judge. For role-plays students are given 10-minutes to prep based on a scenario, after which they present to a judge. The students can also choose to compete as a team. The object of the role-plays is to test student’s abilities to apply skills such as: communication, critical thinking, diagnostics and time management. To prepare for competitionsm students can practice role-plays with Sue Reukauf, DECA advisor, and take written tests. Another way students practice is by talking with local business for real-life role-play experience. This also helps get students comfortable with explaining and conversing in formal situations. For over 30 years, Dodgeville High School has participated in DECA at a district, state, and national level, said Reukauf. Each level has different tests and role-play scenarios. If students make it to the national level the written event is an extended research project based on a given theme. Districts are a one-day event held at a local school. This year’s took place at Sun Prairie High School on January 14th. A total of 54

the students pay for this expense DECA holds a number of fund raisers. The students hold Pizza Hut buffet fundraisers, sell Pink Flamingo Flocks to the Dodgeville area and have individuals who choose to donate. For the Pink Flamingo Flocks, an individual can pay $25 to have a set of yard ornament flamingos placed in another community members’ yard for 24-hours. To prevent this, people can purchase insurance for $25. Through these competitions students become better prepared for the business world and get a better idea of what the career world is like. Participating in an organization like DECA enables students to decide on their college major before even setting foot on campus.

Q and A about Social Security Disability programs By WANDA WASHKUHN Disability Benefit Specialist 9: Who can get disability benefits under Social Se curity? A: Under the Social Security disability insurance program (title II of the Act), there are three basic cat egories of individuals who can qualify for benefits based on disability: A disabled insured worker under full retirement age, An individual disabled since childhood (before age 22) who is a dependent of a parent entitled to title II disability or retirement benefits or was a dependent of a deceased insured parent, and A disabled widow or widower age 50-60, if the deceased spouse was insured under Social Security. Under title XVI, or SSI, there are two basic catego ries under which a financially needy person can get payments based on disability — an adult age 18 or over who is disabled: a child (under age 18) who is disabled. Q: When do disability benefits start? A: Disability benefits for workers and widows usu ally cannot begin for five months after the established onset of the disability. Therefore. Social Security dis ability benefits will be paid for the sixth full month after the date the disability began. The five month waiting period does not apply to individuals filing as

children of workers. Under SSI, disability payments may begin as early as the first full month after the individual applied or became eligible for SSI. In addition, under the SSI disability program, an applicant may be found “presumptively disabled or blind,” and receive cash payments for up to six months while the formal disability determination is made. The presumptive payment is designed to al low a needy individual to meet his or her basic living expenses during the time it takes to process the ap plication. If it is finally determined that the individual is not disabled, he or she is not required to refund the payments. There is no provision for a funding of presumptive disability or blindness under the title II program. 9: Can individuals receiving disability benefits or payments get Medicare or Medicaid coverage? A: Medicare helps pay hospital and doctor bills of disabled or retired people who have worked long enough under Social Security to be insured for Social Security benefits. It generally covers people who are age 65 and over; people who have been determined to be disabled and have been receiving benefits for at least 24 months or have amyotrophic lateral scle rosis: and people who need long term dialysis treat ment for chronic kidney disease or require a kidney transplant. In general. Medicare pays 80 percent of reasonable charges. In most States, individuals who qualify for SSI dis

ability payments also qualify for Medicaid. The Med icaid program is referred to by different names, de pending on the State. The program covers all of the approved charges of the Medicaid patient. Medicaid is financed by Federal and State matching funds, but eligibility rules may vary from State to State. There are many categories of Medical Assistance, please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. 9: Can someone work and still receive disability benefits? A: Social Security rules make it possible for peo ple to test their ability to work without losing their rights to cash benefits and Medicare or Medicaid. These rules are called “work incentives." The rules are different for title II and title XVEI, but under both programs, they may provide continued cash benefits, continued help with medical bills, help with work ex penses, or vocational training. For more information about work incentives, ask any Social Security office for a publication entitled the “Red Book”, or you can access the Red Book on line at www.soclalsecurity.gov/redbook/index.html. If you have any questions or concerns regarding disability or need assistance in applying for benefits, please contact me at 715-349-2100 to schedule an appointment.

February 21st primary will require photo identification By LAURA NEVE The new Wisconsin voter photo ID law will go into effect with the primary election scheduled for Febru ary 21. 2012. This means that, with a few exceptions, you will need to show an acceptable photo ID when you go to your polling place that day. If you do not have such an ID you need to get one immediately or risk not being able to vote in the primary. The follow ing is a list of acceptable IDs for voting purposes: a Wisconsin driver’s license; a Wisconsin DOT-issued ID Card; a Military ID Card; a U.S. passport; identifi cation issued by a federally recognized Indian Tribe; or a certificate of naturalization issued not earlier than two years before the date of the election NOTE: Items 1-4 above must be unexpired or have an expiration date after November 2, 2011 (i.e. it is still valid for voting purposes). Here are a few tips that I have learned since pas

Power Chairs and Scooter Store Medical Supply

sage of this law that might help make it easier to vote if you do not already have an acceptable ID. A driver's license that has expired before November 2. 2011, including years before, is still recognized by the Department of Transportation's DMV (Division of Motor Vehicles) as proof of identification in order to issue a Wisconsin ID Card. In other words, that is all you need to take to the DMV to obtain a Wisconsin ID Card. On election day. if you do not have an acceptable ID, you can still vote a provisional ballot. Then, if you have an ID, you can bring it back to the polling place that day and your vote will be counted. If you do not have an ID, you still have three days (Friday. February 24) to get one from DOT-DMV. This is possible because if you have the necessary proof, DMV will issue you a Wl State ID CARD Receipt that day which is an acceptable ID for voting purposes. Then you present that receipt to the Municipal Clerk

by 4 p.m. on Friday and your vote will be counted. If you do not provide an ID by the deadline, your vote will not be counted. There is one major exception to the requirement of a photo ID. and that is for persons who are Indefi nitely Confined (permanent absentee voters). These people must indicate on their application for an ab sentee ballot that they are indefinitely confined be cause of age. illness, infirmity, or disability. Then the witness certification on the absentee envelope will qualify as a substitute proof of ID, and a photo ID is not required. Finally, help is available in navigating this compli cated law. The Aging and Disability Resource Center of Northwest Wisconsin (ADRC) toll free at 877-4852372 can assist you with this! Please do whatever it takes to exercise your consti tutional right to vote.

The Kortelopet, the 23kilometer companion race of the American Birkebeiner, was more popular than ever Saturday as approximately 2,500 skiers participated under mostly sunny skies in temperatures that started out at 10 degrees and went up to about 20. Ryan Davis of Duluth won the skate race in 1:02:02.8, outsprinting Luke Brown of St. Paul by 1/10 second. Matthew Berntson of Edina, Minn. finished third in 1:02:28. The highest Hayward area finisher was high school junior Alex Larson, 11th in 1:05:12. Alayna Sonnesyn of Plymouth, Minn. won the women’s skate race in 1:0:33, followed by Rachel Mason of Maplewood, Minn. in 1:07:37 and Nicolette Reker of Little Canada, Minn., in 1:08:16. The highest Hayward area finisher was high school senior Katie Burger, 8th in 1:16:52. In the classical division, Nora Gilbertson of Lake Elmo, Minn., took first in 1:20:14, followed by Emma Barnes of Amherst in 1:24:51 and Berit Ramstad Skoyles of Detroit Lakes, Minn. in 1:26:56. The highest Hayward area finisher was Cindy Storm, 9th in 1:32:09. Geoff Ash of Duluth won the men’s classic Korte in 1:09:30, followed by Michael Fleming of Orono, Min. in 1:14:01 and David Joda of Nashotah, Wis. in 1:14:01. Hayward 8th grader Matt Kreyer was the highest local finisher, finishing 19th in 1:24:30. A local finisher, Michael

Mandli, said “conditions were a little slower today, with the little bit of fresh snow. The temperature was perfect and the course was excellent, very well prepared.” Mandli said that he, his wife and daughter moved to the Hayward area last June from Milwaukee “because of this race” and mountain bike trails. “We love living here,” he said. He’s done 21 Birkies— including one in the elite wave— and five Kortelopets. Another Hayward finisher, Tom Blumenberg, who portrayed a Birkie Warrior a few years ago, said the course was fast but not as icy as last year. “Everybody I saw had a good time,” he said.

State Legislature begins final-week sprint Associated Press MADISON

The Wisconsin Legislature’s three-day sprint to finish its business for the session began Tuesday with the Assembly passing a bill that would curtail expansion of the state’s voucher school program and the Senate approving a measure to reduce concussions in youth sports. The two-year legislative session wraps up Thursday. Both houses began floor sessions Tuesday afternoon. Dozens of bills remained undone as evening approached,

including lifting an enrollment cap on the popular Family Care program and starting a wolf hunt in the state. The Senate was expected to work into the night and the Assembly overnight into this morning. It was unclear whether they would return to work on Thursday. It’s a fitting end to a wild session that began in January 2011 with Republicans in control of both houses and Gov. Scott Walker starting his term after the GOP swept into power in the November 2010 elections. Anger over a Walker proposal, which was passed by the

BRIEFS Compiled from Gazette wire services

Army investigating Afghanistan death HAZEL GREEN—The U.S. Army is investigating the death of a military police officer from southwestern Wisconsin who died while serving in Afghanistan, the Department of Defense said Tuesday. Staff Sgt. Jesse Grindey, 30, of Hazel Green died Monday in Kandahar province, officials said. No details of Grindey’s death were released. He was married and had two children.

Grigsby returns to state Assembly MADISON—Democratic state Rep. Tamara Grigsby of Milwaukee has returned to the state Assembly after a threemonth illness that included a two-week stay in intensive care. Grigsby, 37, addressed her colleagues from the floor of the Assembly in a brief emotional speech Tuesday. She thanked them for their support and said she was happy to be back. Grigsby was released from the hospital in January after following complications from cancer treatment.

Supreme Court sides with sex offender

Adopt a Classroom!

MILWAUKEE—The Wisconsin Supreme Court has ruled that a homeless sex offender should not have been convicted of failing to report his address. William Dinkins Sr. was supposed to provide his address for the sex offender registry before his release in 2008, but he couldn’t find a home. The Supreme Court said homeless registrants aren’t exempt from registration but Dinkins was incapable of complying.

Legislature in March 2011 and effectively ended collective bargaining rights for most public workers, spurred a round of recalls last summer that resulted in two Republican senators being ousted. That left Republicans with a narrow 17-16 majority in the Senate. Four Republican state senators, including Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald, are likely to face recall elections in May or June, so they will be anxious for the legislative session to end so they can hit the campaign trail. Likewise, Walker and Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch also are likely to face recalls.

Tuesday in the Assembly, lawmakers swiftly—and quietly—approved the school voucher measure. It cleared the Senate this fall and now heads to Walker, who has said he supports it. The measure would effectively give the Legislature final say over voucher expansion. The voucher program provides parents in eligible school districts with state subsidies to defray their children’s private school tuition. Conservatives insist it gives children in underperforming schools an alternative, but opponents say it takes needed money away from public schools and is part of a

Teen details abuse in police video Associated Press MADISON

A Wisconsin police video released Tuesday shows a 15year-old girl in an oversized sweat shirt clutching her stuffed bunny, occasionally dabbing her eyes and softly describing years of alleged abuse and starvation by her parents. The slightly built teen tells a detective she spent the last several years mostly confined to the basement and that she ate food from the trash or the floor because she’s always hungry. “I’ve just had it,” she says at one point, breaking into tears. “I just don’t even want to go back there.” The video was recorded four days after a passing motorist spotted the girl last month, weighing only 70 pounds, cry-

ing and walking barefoot in thin pajamas outside in the cold. She was so small the man mistook her for an 8-year-old. The girl is wearing a bulky pink sweat shirt in the video that hides her body and makes it difficult to determine her size. Prosecutors entered the twohour video into evidence Tuesday at a preliminary hearing in Madison for the girl’s father and stepmother, who are charged with child abuse, child neglect and reckless endangerment. A judge ordered the video released after prosecutors decided not to show it in court. Judge Amy Smith issued her decision over objections from prosecutors who wanted to protect the girl’s privacy, and defense attorneys who feared the video might prejudice potential jurors.

MADISON

Senate Republicans aren’t giving up on plans to help a Florida company open a giant iron mine in far northwestern Wisconsin, announcing Tuesday they will meet next week to discuss stalled legislation that would ease the state’s permitting rules. The bill failed in the Senate last week after Republicans couldn’t muster enough votes despite softening the measure in a compromise bid. The legislative session ends Thursday, meaning any bills that lawmakers don’t pass by then will die. Sen. Rich Zipperer, R-Pewaukee, chairman of the Senate’s judiciary and commerce committee, issued a notice Tuesday morning saying he plans to convene his panel on

Monday to discuss the bill’s future and wouldn’t take public comment. The timing of the meeting—four days after the legislative session ends—suggests that Republicans may be considering bringing a version of the measure back in an extra session. Zipperer said that’s a possibility. “The bill is on life-support,” Zipperer said. “I don’t think anyone expects us to pass it this week. A deal … is still a longshot but I want to hold out the possibility an agreement can be reached. Perhaps someone will change their mind.” Republicans weren’t holding out much hope. Asked whether Republican legislative leaders might call lawmakers back for an extraordinary session, Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald’s spokesman said Fitzgerald still doesn’t have the votes.

Ladysmith Lions fishing tourney reels them in

HOOKED ON FISHING — Above, Ladysmith resident Paul Mitchell and his daughter Isabelle, 7, pick up a free shing pole. The Wildlife Restoration Association provided a free ice jigging pole and reel to youngsters 16 and under with a ticket. The Lions Club sponsored Dairyland Flowage shing tournament on Sunday included plenty of family fun for all who came out on the ice. More photos on Page 3A. — News photos by Luke Klink

School technology Continued from Page 1A can also lead to technology being obsolete by the time a full install is complete. “Smart Board” technology that offers big screen touch detection and can be linked to a computer to offer highly interactive instruction far beyond traditional chalk and chalkboard. “You can plan on Smart Boards and bring technology in here, here and here. But by the end of the rst year what you just put in there already is a new model and a new idea. You have to commit and go with it because you don’t want a bunch of different technologies all over that make it difcult to train and manage,” Scherzer said. He added the overriding concern when adding technology is protecting students from potential misuse. “On one side, you have educators who want to go forward and use all these tools, but on the information technology side you have to be careful you are protecting the student and keeping the community informed we will be moving forward,” Scherzer said. “Will the community accept us taking the students forward? You really have to involve everybody to see how far we should take the students.” Bring your own While grant funding is available to purchase new technology, the problem with this money is that once it is spent, it is gone. Another grant may or may not be on the way to continue offering the new service. “In four years when I need to refresh those, I hope I can get another grant or I have just integrated 20 devices that will have to come out of my budget,” Scherzer said. “You want to keep it. If it is working you want to keep the idea going. While technology is improving so fast, you try to keep your devices up to date so students and staff can do what they need to do. The constant refresh of devices can be very expensive.” To help offset purchase, upgrade, repair and replacement costs, some schools and businesses are turning to a policy simply billed as “Bring Your Own Device.” This policy essentially allows staff and students to bring in the equipment of their choice — laptop, tablet, smartphone — for use at school. As a greater percentage of people buy their technology for their own personal use, a Bring Your Own Device policy becomes easier to implement. However, this type of policy requires installing a new wire-

less system. To help schools and libraries pay for telecommunication and Internet access, the federal government has offered since 1996 an E-rate Grant Program, funded through service charges on customer’s telephone bills. It is formulated on free and reduced lunch enrollment. Rural schools like Flambeau, Ladysmith and Bruce schools that have sizeable numbers of students receiving school meal assistance rely on E-Rate funding to remain technologically competitive with larger schools in more populated areas. Another benet of high-speed technology is the ability to connect rural areas with advanced classes and specialized instruction offered outside the school district. “What used to be far away education can now be offered right inside our school,” Scherzer said. He added technology is also allowing for constantly updated online e-textbooks. Head in the clouds The dream of a paperless society may be about to come true, more than 30 years after that phrase was coined in the 1970s as a reference how computers and the digital age would eliminate the need for paper. The Ladysmith School Board recently went “paperless” for its regular meetings, rendering mostly obsolete the task of printing out hefty board meeting packets for each member and instead downloading materials onto computers supplied for the ofcials. “The idea is we have cut down on probably about a half-box of paper. There are 91 pages on the [January] open session packet,” said School District Administrator Kurt Lindau said about the rst such meeting held in January. “ School administration has also begun posting meeting agendas and public board packets on the district’s web site, and posting other information for board members and closed session materials for school ofcials on a secure site called “The Cloud.” Cloud computing typically involves purchasing space for data storage, software and other computer services over the Internet rather than installing hardware and software on each in-house computer, another leap forward in the sharing of information like Web 2.0 a decade ago. Growing in popularity Flambeau Middle School science and math teacher Erica Schley was one of the rst at the school to get a new interactive digital “Smart Board,” essentially a large computer screen in front of the class. She can walk around the room with an Ipad

and control the Smart Board from wherever she standing in the classroom. “At my rst teaching position eight years ago, we had Palm Pilots and every single student had a mini Palm Pilot. I could beam them an assignment and they could beam it back to me. It was almost like a small Ipad, but without all the apps, bells and whistles.” She and other teachers actively seek out grants to help fund everything from MOODLE to Ipads as a way of incorporating more technology into the classroom despite tight budgets. Schools also collaborate through their member Cooperative Education Services Agency when applying for technology grants under the premise there is strength in numbers. Flambeau School District Information Technologies Director Bob Hindal noted the one area where the school district has been saving money as technology advances is in the area of chalk and erasers. He added computers also provide immediate feedback to students, who now can get test results back with the stroke of a key through the Smart Board. However, to get the biggest bang for the buck, the school district has avoided purchasing new technology like survey “clickers” that can instantly allow students to respond to poll questions posed by a teacher, because they carry out only one function. “The Ipads, Iphones and Ipods are all interactive. It didn’t make any sense to buy the clickers,” Hindal said. “These are all things that are just coming out now,” Hindal said. Students get it Scherzer said a key component of new technology is the cost of the item and also the expense of training the teaching staff on how to best use the devices in education. “The great thing about technology is the students will pick up new technology very, very quickly. It is part of their life, in most cases at home and now at school. They point and click. They pick it up fast,” Scherzer said. The one constant with technology in education, according to Scherzer is that no matter how fast it changes from year to year or how often you change platforms from Mac to PC or from Laptop to tablet to smartphone is students quickly learn how to use it. “The staff have a harder time adjusting, but for a student it doesn’t matter. It is a computer. They get on, and they quickly gure it out. They don’t have any problems,” Scherzer said.

Man gets jail for drug possession Waukesha – A Town of Mukwonago man was sentenced March 1 to 60 days in the work-release jail for possession of narcotic drugs last year.

There are many reasons why some people decide to buy, over renting. One reason is that when you pay a mortgage payment you are acquiring equity, which is an investment. When you pay a rent payment, you are helping the landlord with their investment. Also when you want to make changes to your home, you can make that decision for yourself. Another reason is that money is very reasonable to borrow Art Schneider nowadays and you can buy a lot more house than in the past. If you pay a mortgage payment of $717.00 for a 30-year term at 4% interest, your loan amount could be $150,000.00. If you paid a rent payment of $717.00, you could stay there for another month and hope that the landlord does not raise your rent for the next month. Also owning a home gives you tax breaks that you can use and your payment will stay the same. The last reason is that, owning a home keeps you busy on weekends so you don’t get in trouble, renting gives you too much free time. Congratulations to the Indians Pom and Dance team, Basketball teams, Wrestlers, Gymnasts, Swimmers, Skiers & Hockey players! Also congrats to the Debate teams. If you have any other questions please give Art Schneider a call at 414-313-1320 anytime or email me at aschneider@ﬁrstweber.com or visit my website at Artschneider.com or Artschneider.ﬁrstweber.com, thank you!!

Most people trying to lose weight will hit that point when the scale doesn’t budge. This is A known as a plateau. Here are some strategies to aid you in overcoming this situation. Eating habits are the most important factor in weight loss. Make sure to track and write down everything you eat. This keeps you accountable for what you eat and forces you to consider alternative actions before mindless snacking or emotional eating.

health insurance is an excellent way to ensure that you can provide your pet with the best care possible, even in unexpected circumstances. Bay View Veterinary Clinic would like to invite you to a no sales, informal talk Dr. Phil Schoenborn on VPI Pet Insurance on Saturday March 10th at 1 pm.

In the gym, make sure to switch up your workouts to keep the muscles confused. In order to add change to your workout, you may need to come out of your comfort zone. This could be what the body needs to see results. Last, but not least, is to keep pushing. A plateau can really discourage someone, but the only way you will successfully break through is if you are able to stay mentally strong, keep your goals in mind, and develop a plan to overcome what is stopping your progress.

Unfortunately, your scenario is a common one I run across every spring with a handful of customers. Realistically, the damage is probably already done, but getting the spa emptied and thawed should be the ﬁrst step. In most cases, placing a small electric space heater inside the cabinet (on a low heat setting) makes the most sense right now. Also, if you call me at 262-968-4365, I will be able to gather more info and offer some speciﬁc actions to take, and I can assist you with an insurance claim that will either pay for the repairs or pay for your brand new replacement spa.

Any pain that arises spontaneously D.D.S. without any apparent cause should be taken very seriously. For instance, dental pain that wakes you up at night often indicates that a nerve is either very inflamed or has died. Any pain that is constant, whether it is sharp, throbbing pain or a dull ache that lasts several hours or more must be treated as soon as possible. Just remember, dental problems are best treated when they are small problems, so never ignore signs of pain from your teeth. Call your dentist at the first sign of trouble.

I am sorry to hear of the passing of your friend. I assume that an estate has been filed with the Register in Probate’s office of the county where he lived. You should check with the Register’s office to verify if an estate has been opened.

When an estate is opened, whether it is a formal or informal probate, there is a period of time during which Dennis Weden you may file a claim against the estate. This information is published in a special notice in a newspaper or may be found in the court records. You should ask what is the latest date to file a claim. Your claim must be filed within this time period or it will be barred. You should use the court approved form and attach any documentation (such as a signed note) you may have. The claim is then filed in the Register in Probate’s office. There is a $3.00 fee to file. For probate, real estate, estate planning and other legal questions, please call Giese & Weden Law Offices, 414 West Main Street, Suite 2, Mukwonago, Wisconsin (262) 363-8880.

so its value is somewhat based on the strength of the economy, and as we all know ours has kind of been in the toilet the last few years, as are the economies of other countries. As long as governments keep spending more Bartle money than they have that will help keep the price of gold in the stratosphere. Steve Jeweler Another reason for the high gold prices is that gold is being traded as a commodity just like oil, corn soybeans etc, people are buying it in the hopes that the price will go up, putting a higher demand on the metal. Now as far as jewelry goes, the demand for gold are actually down over 30% due to the high price of gold as well as the current state of the economy. Because the price of gold is so high, that has made jewelry made of silver more attractive, due to its lower price. There are now some companies that will make their items out of either gold, or silver, giving customers more choices to fit their budgets. As always, feel free to bring in your unwanted items, gold, silver, or platinum and we will convert them to cash.
