Alder deadline set for FridayJim FerolieVerona Press editor
Mayor Jon Hochkam-mer will accept appli-cations until Friday for the District 4 Common Council spot that has been open since Jeremy Charles resigned April 26.
Hochkammer told the council Monday he has heard from at least seven people with interest in the position. He said any-one who would like to express interest in serv-ing the remaining one year of the two-year term should submit the request in writing.
“Depending on the number of candidates,” Hochkammer said, he wil l in terview them, along with council presi-dent Ald. Mac McGil-vray (Dist. 1) and the other District 4 alder, Heather Reekie.
The council meets two Mondays a month, but alders are also expected to serve on multiple com-mittees and commissions and are paid a small sal-ary.
The opening is posted on the city’s website, ci.verona.wi.us.
The city is seeking applicants for a Library Boa rd pos i t i on t ha t became vacant the same day, also due to a sudden resignation. The Library Board meets on the first W e d n e s d a y o f e a c h month.
Four Winds fined for freezing deathFacility installs additional security measures Jim FerolieVerona Press editor
Since the untimely death of a 93-year-old resident of Four Winds Lodge two months ago, the assisted living facility has installed exit alarms on all doors and a variety of other security measures.
But a state-issued report released Monday concluded the facility “did not pro-vide the needed supervi-sion” to Edna Biederman on the night she walked out of Four Winds and froze to death, and the state fined the facility $845 for not complying with proper pro-tocols.
Four Winds administra-tor Lynn Howard told the Verona Press on Tuesday that Biederman’s death was an “unfortunate event,” and she defended the staff and procedures she had in place at the time.
She said her team’s annu-al clinical assessment deter-mined that the woman was not a “wander risk” despite speaking of going home multiple times – as recent-ly as three days before the incident – and walking toward the door wearing boots. The state Depart-ment of Health Services investigation disagreed, noting that the woman had activated power of attorney and was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and said she had shown “wan-dering” and “exit-seeking”

Council agrees on commission repJim FerolieVerona Press editor
It will be two weeks or so before t h e C o m m o n Council is back to eight members, but
at least they have taken care of the contentious Plan Commission spot.
It still took two rounds of votes to find the needed supermajor-ity, but the discussion and voting all was done in good humor and was even comical at times. In the
end, Ald. Dale Yurs (Dist. 2) got a unanimous nod to represent the council for the coveted spot.
Yurs, who had earned five votes during the previous council meeting, was one of six people to express interest in the position, which was vacated in an April
election defeat by Steve Ritt after six years.
After four 4-3 votes for dif-ferent candidates at the April 16 council reorganization meet-ing and two 5-3 votes for Yurs against to different opponents April 22, the council appeared to
be at an impasse.Four days later, one of Yurs’
competitors for the spot, Jeremy Charles, announced his resig-nation, citing the frustration of dealing with what he saw as a
Epic plans reach first goalSeveral steps remain, but council approval was the biggest hurdleJim FerolieVerona Press editor
As alders began discussing the first of three votes Monday required to allow Epic Systems Corp. to begin building its two newest sets of build-ings, one of the first questions was who had dissented with the Plan Commission’s recommendation the week before and why.
The answer, as city planning direc-tor Adam Sayre reported, was for-mer alder Jack Linder, who lives just a few blocks from where Campus 5
is planned to go. But the concerns Linder had expressed had little to do with the neighborhood and were instead about the timing of the approvals and the possibility of the city locking itself into inadvertently allowing some other kind of devel-opment by rezoning the land should Epic’s deal with the landowner fall through.
No commissioners registered com-plaints with the placement of the new road or the berm that would block it from Linder’s neighborhood or even the idea of Epic building to the east, into land that before Monday was planned for a residential subdivision. Nobody from the public had spoken at any of the public hearings, either, a significant change from the outcry the original plan had gotten from
neighbors in December.That was all a big relief for Ald.
Scott Manley (Dist. 2), who had got-ten an earful himself back then.
“I received a lot of very strong, negative reaction from people in District 2,” he said. “I was persuad-ed that that’s maybe something we shouldn’t do.”
But Epic modified that original proposal after it and the city each held public forums and smaller group meetings to discuss the plans with neighbors.
“As the process evolved,” Manley said, “it’s fair to say that a lot of the people who were originally opposed the project changed their mind and became supportive of it.”

Epic still hasn’t submitted any building plans for Campus 4 and Campus 5, but the location of the parking garage and the ramps off Northern Lights give a good indication of where the buildings likely will be placed. The road and intersection are approximate locations.

Sugar Creek’s ‘Grandma’ turns 85rob KitSonVerona Press correspondent
Orma Herfel received birthday wishes Monday from the students and staff of Sugar Creek Elementary School when the 34-year Verona Area School District cafeteria worker celebrated her 85th birthday.
“We are really going to try to make this day special for her,” Sugar Creek principal Todd Brunner wrote in an email.
But Herfel, who cleans dishes and serves in the school’s cafeteria, remained modest and admitted in an interview with the Verona Press that she didn’t want people to sing her Happy Birthday and didn’t want to make a big deal of it.
Still, to make the day spe-cial for Herfel, the school had a picnic – there aren’t dishes to clean after a pic-nic – where students wished Herfel a happy birthday and presented her a book of birth-day wishes and a picture of all the students and staff.
Later, an after-school gathering for Herfel allowed retired and current staff to wish her well. The gathering had plenty of lemon-flavored food, according to Brunner, who also tried getting every-body to wear red, Herfel’s favorite color.
Herfel, who can see Sugar Creek from her apartment, explained that the kids are the motivation driving her long career at the school.
“They call me ‘Grandma,” she said.
The Sugar Creek staff is also a fan of Herfel. Brunner explained how a path from Herfel’s parking spot to the doors of the school are the first things shoveled every morning it snows.
Herfel is “one of the best things about this school,” he said.
Herfel reciprocated with admiration for the school and has no retirement date set.
“If I quit, I wouldn’t be happy,” she said. “I don’t want to look at the four walls (of her apartment) day and night.”

Cleary recognized as state’s Family Business of the Year
Verona-based Cleary Building Corp. has won one of the Wisconsin Family Business of the Year awards, according to a press release.
The awards ceremony last week honored nine family businesses, i n c l u d i n g C l e a r y , selected by an inde-pendent panel of judg-es.
“We are honored to receive this award,” said Cleary president Sean Cleary in the release. “One of the things I have worked very hard at in our organization is ‘culture.’ It started with family and it turned into team. We’re (Cleary employees) just down to earth people trying to work really hard. We are very driven and very intense on trying to get it right, which is why we’re unbelievably proud to receive this award.”
Now in its 10th year, the Wisconsin
Family Business of the Year Award is an annual awards program spon-sored by several financial and legal firms. A panel of judges drawn from family-owned businesses, consul-tants, government and business media review nominations and consider those business’ contributions to their communities and industry, positive links between family and business and innovative practices it may use, among other things, according to the award website.
Cleary was among the half-dozen businesses that received a Special Award. Three others were recognized with a Grand Award in small, medi-um and large company categories.
Judges praised Cleary’s strong cus-tomer service. The company presi-dent, for example, is copied on any complaint received, and within 30 minutes of its receipt, the company’s Complaints Committee is required to have a preliminary diagnosis of the situation, and contact the client with
a solution to the problem, accord-ing to the press release. Sean Cleary also created a detailed customer ser-vice process called the “Shamrock Service Guarantee” to ensure every project runs on time and with the quality every client deserves, while employees undergo special training. Each Special Award carries a title, and Cleary’s award was named the “Shamrock Pride” honor.
Founded by Tom Cleary in 1978, Cleary started as a small post-frame building in Verona. Today, it stands as a successful national company with 80 offices nationwide and about 900 employees. The company has a very strong presence in agricultural build-ings but also manufactures commer-cial, residential and equine structures. They also build churches, garages and airplane hangars.
Cleary was presented with its award during a May 9 ceremony at the Mar-riott West in Middleton.

Come back together after the fight is overWhy does everything
have to be a contentious fight these days?
That’s the question I was asked by one of the members of our small group Bible study a few weeks ago.
At the time, we were talk-ing about the heated exchange between the members of Vero-na’s Common Council in April and the subsequent resignation of Ald. Jeremy Charles. Of course, that question led to a wider discus-sion about the negative dis-course going on at the national level.
The 113th Congress and President Obama seem to squab-ble over the sequester, taxes, entitlement programs, North Korea and just about everything else that draws a line between ideological dogmas.
I’m not here to write about the wrangling of politics (local or national) but my friend’s ques-tion got me to thinking about how we function as a society when our leaders seem to live for “the fight.” In other words, is it more important to keep “pound-ing on the table” until one side caves in or the table breaks in half and the stalemate continues into perpetuity, or is it better to work toward a solution that actu-ally does something?
I realize the United States has always had divided opinions about the direction of our country. I think of the American Civil War as we recognize the 150th anniversary of the famous battle of Gettysburg this year. Uncompromising divi-sion over the issues of secession and slavery manifested themselves in the deaths of over 50,000 sol-diers during that one battle and the hundreds of thousands who died over the course of the four-year war.
When Abraham Lincoln was running for the U.S. Senate in 1858, he could see the storm clouds of the Civil War on the
horizon. He gave his famous “House Divided” speech to the Illinois Republican State Con-vention on June 16, 1858. In that speech, Lincoln quoted Jesus’ statement found in the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke) in which he says, “A house divid-ed against itself cannot stand.” (Mark 3:25).
Lincoln knew that a nation divided over the scourge of slavery and disunion could not endure. In this case, there could be no compromise. In order to survive, America must be one nation that is free for all people from sea to shining sea.
For all of its terrible death and destruction, the Civil War was fought, in large part, to set people free. As King Solomon observed in his reflections on life in the book of Ecclesiastes, “there is a time for war and a time for peace.” (Eccl 3:8).
Lincoln knew that a time for peace could not come until a nation that proclaimed in its Declaration of Independence that “All men are created equal” were free to pursue their own God-given destiny.
King Solomon also concluded that there is “A time to tear and a time to mend. A time to be quiet and a time to speak.” (Eccl: 3:7). I am praying that we can enter a season of “mending and quiet-ness” that will draw our commu-nity and nation together after a time of tearing down and conten-tious speech. We might not be in a civil war fought with guns, but our hurtful words and demeanor toward one another can lead to “a house divided.”
Divisiveness is not confined to politics or ideologues. The Christian church is at odds on many doctrinal issues that define the orthodoxy of the multitude of
denominations in Christendom. However, it is sad when Chris-tians are perceived by the culture at large as being judgmental, aloof, uncaring, or worse, hate-ful.
Don’t get me wrong, doctrine is extremely important because it defines what we believe as defined by the Bible. But we can love and care for people wher-ever they are at in a way that doesn’t compromise our beliefs.
Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matt 11:28). That seems like a good place to start when we are engag-ing with people who are strug-gling with issues in life.
So how do we answer the ques-tion posed by my friend, “Does everything have to be a fight?”
I guess that depends on the people involved in the issue. Cer-tainly there is a place for debate, discussion and disagreement on policies that will affect the direc-tion of our culture. But once the “fight” is over, it might be time to come back together for the betterment of all.
That is what President Lincoln seemed to surmise in the con-clusion to his second inaugural address at the tail end of the Civil War: “With malice towards none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation’s wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan-to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace, among ourselves, and with all nations.”
Peace be with you all!

Letters to the editor
Hwy. M traffic problems existed before EpicThere has been much complain-
ing about the Epic traffic lately. Epic is not fully to blame in this issue. Hwy. M was a problem before Epic came to town.
Why was Hwy. M not widened when all the housing development along Hwy. M and Mid Town Road started? Who thought that the existing two-lane roads could handle the amount of commuters that were added as more and more housing development and another golf course went up? Did any of the land developers or city traf-fic engineers give it any thought? Apparently not.
Widening Hwy. PD and Nine Mound Road is going to do noth-ing if it all gets bottle-necked up on Hwy. M again.
Before anything else is done and any more roundabouts are built, Hwy. M should be widened to a four-lane road, from Mineral Point Road all the way into Vero-na, and its 45 mph speed limit restored (because I’d like to hit whoever lowered it).
Ryan MillerVerona
Editors note: Hwy. M is sched-uled to be widened to four lanes from Mineral Point to just north of Cross Country Road. The proj-ect is being done in several phas-es, with the final phase scheduled to start in 2016.

Verona native chosen queen of Syttende Mai
A Verona native who took her love of agriculture east has earned a once-in-a lifetime honor, as queen of Syttende Mai.
The Stoughton festival, which translates from Nor-weigian as “the 17th of May,” refers to the signing of the Norwegian constitu-tion in 1814 and the end of centuries of Danish rule.
Stoughton’s fes t ival , which features two parades and a variety of stage, dance and musical performances, is generally considered to be larger than any Syttende Mai celebration in Norway.
Each year it chooses a king and queen based on com-munity contribution, and this year’s pick was Darlene Arneson – known around here as the former Darlene Maurer – and husband John.
Darlene Arneson is the daughter of Jerry and Mar-ilyn Maurer and a 1980 Verona High School gradu-ate. She grew up on a farm on Maple Grove Drive, near the current Chavez Elemen-tary School, and the couple was married at St. James Lutheran Church in Verona.
The two represent a wide variety of organiza-tions, including the Future Farmers of America and Stoughton FFA Alumni. Perhaps more to the point, the two are also respective presidents of the Sons of Norway Mandt Lodge and the Mandt Lodge Building Corporation, and Darlene has also worked with the Stoughton Norwegian Sum-mit Group and Destination Stoughton Weekends.
The Arnesons’ involve-ment with the Sons of Nor-way and FFA has kept them from enjoying all the differ-ent activities of Syttende Mai in past years, so Darlene said they are really looking for-ward to getting a chance to take part in the other events the weekend has to offer.
The Arnesons have a full schedule throughout the week leading up to Syttende Mai. The couple will be vis-iting chamber members and local businesses throughout the week thanking them for their membership and support of Stoughton and will also be visiting all of the Stoughton elementary schools and attending dif-ferent activities at the nurs-ing home.
“This has been a pretty humbling experience,” Dar-lene said. “We just appreci-ate the community recog-nizing us as this year’s king and queen.”
Throughout the year, S t o u g h t o n r e s i d e n t s
nominate community mem-bers for the title. A board of 13 people then chooses the king and queen from the nominees, with their deci-sion based on the couple’s contributions to the com-munity, said Syttende Mai coordinator Laura Trotter.
John and Darlene both grew up on farms and majored in agricultural edu-cation at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, teach-ing high school agriculture education and operating in a dairy partnership. The couple also both work in agricul-tural related jobs. John is a process operator for DuPont, and Darlene serves as Ag in the Classroom Coordinator and Foundation Director for Wisconsin Farm Bureau.
While most of their free time is spent volunteering, John and Darlene love to old-time dance when they have the chance. John also spends time working on genealogy research on his Norwegian roots.
With an intense interest in their Norwegian heritage, the Arnesons have continued to share their passion with their children, Lars, Jens and Sig-rid, with their involvement in Sons of Norway and numer-ous trips to Norway.

The county closed its old facility, on Fish Hatchery Road, in November 2012.
Hours of operation are Tuesday through Friday, 7 a.m.-2:45 p.m. and Sat-urdays 8 a.m.-10:45 am.
The county’s program is one of the largest continu-ously operated household hazardous waste programs in the state, the release said. Since the opening of its first permanent seasonal facility in 1993, Dane County has captured over 10.8 million pounds of household haz-ardous waste.

How Failure Makes Us StrongerWe have the capacity to learn from our mistakes, and thus there is a great advantage in making some big mistakes early in life. Most people have a number of failed relationships before they find the love of their life. Those failed relationships help them to know what they are looking for in a mate. Failures in busi-
ness may be costly, but they often lead to more profitable and better-run businesses in the future. Even in the realm of health, we see that getting sick often immunizes us against that par-
ticular disease in the future and broken bones heal themselves to become stronger than the original. It seems that we live in
a universe that thrives on adversity. Stressing a muscle makes it stronger, and the bones attached to that muscle become
stronger too. Character works on the same principle. Those who have been profoundly tested are usually the most robust and
resilient. People born before the Great Depression and who then lived through it have a lower risk of becoming depressed than people born after the depression. Perhaps the stress and strain
that many are living through now will bring out the best in them. Don’t seek an easy life for you or your children. If you want them
to be robust and resilient, let them experience a loss or failure every now and then. They just might thank you for it someday.
“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so
that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.”James 1:2-4

The Friends of the Verona Public Library have the oppor-tunity to win a $5,000 donation from Navigant, a global con-sulting firm with a local Verona office.
The Friends are competing with more than 40 communities worldwide to win one of five $5,000 donations.
Navigant recently partnered with the library to present a STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) Fair for kids, Brian Simons, director of the Verona Public Library, said in a news release.
“We had a great turn-out for the STEM Fair,” Simons said. “It’s an excellent example of
how the library works with local businesses to provide fun and exciting educational programs for our community.”
The public can vote online for the Verona Public Library as often as they wish at navigant.com/vote, now through May 24 to help the Friends win the dona-tion.

PRESCHOOLQ. My eight year old will never admit he made a mistake.
How can I help him with this?
A. Even adults fi nd it hard to admit to making a mistake. You’re wise to work on this issue now before it becomes a bigger problem. Start by asking yourself how you react when your child makes a mistake. Are you calm? Accusatory?
Disappointed? Your child needs to know that it’s OK to make mistakes and that they can be learning experiences. Set a good example by acknowledging your own mistakes in a calm manner and showing your child how to move on in a positive way.

Q. Are there any tax benefi ts for the Long Term Care (LTC) premiums we pay?
A. Yes! Long Term Care premiums are (almost) ALWAYS deductible on your Wisconsin tax return. It’s a fi rst-dollar deduction, the best kind. And for Federal tax purposes, business owners can generally deduct LTC premiums to the extent their business is profi table. This gives LTC premiums the same treatment as health insurance for self-employed taxpayers and S Corporation owners. Medical expenses will be harder to deduct in 2013. Obamacare raises the hurdle for deducting medical expenses from 7.5% to 10% of Adjusted Gross Income for 2013. (Seniors over age 65 get a 4 year reprieve, until 2017, from this tax bite.) LTC premiums get around some of these limitations. So even if you can’t use the LTC deduction on your federal tax return, be sure to alert your tax preparer about any LTC premiums you paid so you can get your Wisconsin deduction.

DENTISTQ. What should you do if a tooth gets knocked out in an accident?
A. Spring is upon us and as so we and our children venture outside more and engage in those activities that we love like biking, boarding, baseball or soccer. Unfortunately, sometimes these activities lead to accidents. Time is your enemy when an accident or any trauma dislodges a tooth. First, locate that tooth or teeth and determine if it broke or if the entire tooth and root came out in one piece. Gather the tooth/root and any pieces and get them to a dentist immediately. If the root can be reimplanted within 2 hours, the tooth has a chance. It may be possible to bond large pieces back as well. When transporting the tooth, do not touch the root or wrap it with a tissue or a cloth. If there is obvious dirt on the tooth, rinse gently with water but keep the tooth moist. If there is a dental fi rst aid kit nearby, use the HBSS solution to soak the tooth in (this preserves the tooth). Otherwise, milk is the next best storage solution, followed by saline (salt water), saliva or water. Rush the injured person and tooth to the dentist for reimplantation and splinting. This is a true dental emergency, if after regular business hours, call your dentist anyway. If you wait several hours there is little chance that the tooth can be put back in. If you cannot contact a dentist then go immediately to your nearest Urgent Care or Emergency Room.

PHYSICAL THERAPYQ. My 13 year old child is participating in 3 sports this summer. Is this too much for her?
A. This is a scenario that occurs often and usually is tolerated well by the child. There are many benefi ts of participating in multiple sports and the increased amount of exercise is good for the child, but one must keep the following thoughts in mind. As a child grows and the body’s tissues develop, stress and strain to the growth plates of long bones, muscle and soft-tissue injuries, and over-use injuries are common and can contribute to chronic injury and pain. Many children specialize in a sport at an early age and are ‘encouraged’ to pick a sport and excel in it (through school teams, recreational teams, private clubs, traveling teams, summer camps, etc). While this may build the sport-specifi c skill of the child, there is a loss of cross-training with this pattern, which commonly leads to an over-use injury. Proper conditioning, a combination of strength, fl exibility and core exercises, and building recovery time into the child’s sports program will allow for continued enjoyment of being a multi-sport athlete without risking injury. Contact Stellar Rehabilitation for individualized Physical Therapy care and an exercise program fi t to your child’s needs.

CHIROPRACTORQ. I am getting a lot of pain in my neck when I am riding my bike.
Would chiropractic or massage help with this?
A. Whether you are riding a recreational bike, road bike, or tri bike the neck is forced into a position that puts pressure on the posterior portion of the cervical spine. This position also forces the neck to remain in a state of continued contraction that can cause joint and muscle soreness. Chiropractic adjustments will help maintain healthy joint mobility and function. This will help alleviate pain and will prolong your years of cycling. Therapeutic
massage will help reduce muscle soreness and reduce any restrictions in the neck caused by that continued contraction. Along with regular chiropractic and massage, exercises would be recommended to help increase strength and mobility in your neck and upper back.

REAL ESTATE Q. Should I have my home pre-inspected before listing it?
A. It may be a great idea to have your home pre-inspected if you are planning on listing an older home. The inspection can give you an overview of what may need repairing or what you might be up against when a buyer has their inspec-tion. Repairing items prior to listing your property can improve how your prop-erty shows and minimize potential negotiating later. Keep in mind, the majority of buyers will still want their own independent inspection. The main objective of a pre-inspection is for your own information for repair and disclosure purposes. Inspectors are generalists and not all are created equal. For a list of great local inspectors, check out our website under “About the Area.”

INVESTMENTSQ. Should I Take a Pension Buyout?
A. If you’ve received an offer from your employer to buy out your pension, you’re facing a big decision: Should you accept the lump sum or continue taking your monthly pension payments? You might be afraid that taking a lump sum would subject you to a big tax bill. But if you roll the money into a traditional IRA, you may be able to avoid paying taxes on those funds until you start your withdrawals. Consider your estate plans. Pension payments generally end when you and your spouse are gone, but with an IRA, you may still end up with something you can leave behind. Don’t forget about infl ation. If your pension payments aren’t indexed for infl ation, they’ll lose purchasing power over time. Within your IRA, you can invest for growth potential, but
remember that all investments are subject to some level of risk. You’re facing a big choice. Get all the facts, and then get some professional help from your fi nancial and tax advisors.

HEATING/COOLINGQ. Does the phase out of R-22 refrigerant mean that I must replace my
existing air conditioner?
A. The short answer is no, as long as your existing air conditioner is functioning. However the limits on R-22 production have significant-ly increased its cost. So if you have a system that needs to regularly get recharged, you should consider replacing it. The Bryant Evolution series air conditioners use Puron refrigerant, a more environmentally sound choice. These units are more efficient, quieter operating, and pro-vide better dehumidification for added comfort. To learn more about Bryant air conditioners, contact Dave at OK Heating & Air Conditioning.

SENIOR CAREQ. Skin Cancer in the Elderly
A. While it is never too late to begin protecting your skin from damaging UV rays, experts say sunburns experienced early in life can cause skin cancer in later years. However, damage caused by the sun’s rays is cumulative, spanning a person’s entire lifetime in the sun. Knowing this, it may not be surprising to learn that cases of skin cancer among seniors are more prevalent than in the younger population. Skin cancer among seniors is a serious matter as over 50% of deaths associated with it occur in people over the age of 65. Perhaps this is because some older adults are not aware of the sun’s continuous damaging rays or think the danger of skin cancer is not as high as they age. Aging skin loses its ability to protect itself so it is critical that seniors protect their skin from the sun. Wrinkles, decreased elasticity, age spots,
dryness and other skin conditions make it harder to detect abnormal cancerous lesions. Seniors who develop melanoma are not as likely to have a good prognosis as younger generations. Early detection of melanoma can mean the difference between life and death. If a mole is raised, changes shape, has jagged edges, discolorations, signs of bleeding or you notice other skin abnormalities, a doctor should be seen immediately. While not all skin cancer lesions are malignant, it is important as a person ages to be proactive
in detecting skin cancer. Regular self-examinations and yearly appointments with a health pro are crucial.

ATTORNEYSQ. Can evidence that I refused to take a breathalyzer test be used against me in court?
A. Typically, the Fifth Amendment prohibits the State from using a defendant’s statements against him. A defendant’s refusal to submit to a breathalyzer test is a statement, which could be used in court to convince the jury that he did not take a breathalyzer because he had consumed alcohol. As such, the Supreme Court has ruled that it violates a defendant’s Fifth Amendment rights for the State to use his refusal to submit to a breathalyzer against him. Wisconsin drivers, on the other hand, have no constitutional right to refuse to take a breathalyzer test. State law requires a driver to take a breathalyzer or other test for intoxication when requested by a police offi cer. The reason for this statute is to identify and remove drunk drivers from the public roads in order to prevent accidents. The consequence for a driver refusing to take a breathalyzer test is that evidence of that refusal may be used in court against him. The bottom line is that you have a constitutional right to refuse an intoxication test so long as you are not driving.

INSURANCEQ. What is Professional Liability Insurance?
A. This type of insurance is also known as Errors and Omissions Insurance. The policy provides defense and damages for failure to or improperly rendering professional services. Your general liability policy does not provide this protection, so it is important to understand the difference. Professional Liability is applicable and common for any professional firm including lawyers, accountants, consultants, real estate agents and technology providers just to name a few.

WINDOW FASHIONS & COVERINGSQ. How can I make my window coverings safe for children?
A. About one child each month strangles to death on cords of a window blind or shade, according to U.S. regulators. Children can get caught in the cords which hold blinds together or the cords which raise and lower. New tougher guidelines are being implemented June, 1 on all manufacturers of corded blinds and shades. Roman Shades must include shrouding products to eliminate the possibility of forming a deadly loop in lift cords. Ensure all tie-downs or tension devices at the end of continuous loop cords are screwed into the wall or molding to hold the cord taut. Eliminate all other loops and install cord stops to shorten excess length, and secure unused cord high up out of a child’s reach. Free retro-fit kits and instructions are available from the Window Covering Safety Council
(www.windowcoverings.org), but urge parents to use only cordless products in young children’s bedrooms.

VETERINARIANQ. What is Leptospira and should I vaccinate my dog for it?
A. Leptospira is a bacteria that can cause kidney and liver failure in dogs. Dogs become infected by this bacteria when abraded skin comes into contact with infected urine or with water contaminated with infected urine. Bite wounds, reproductive secretions and even consumption of infected tissues can cause this infection. The organisms can quickly spread through the blood stream and accumulate in the liver or kidneys to cause failure of these organs. Symptoms can include fever, depression, not wanting to eat, nausea, joint
pain, excessive drinking, jaundice and bleeding problems. This infection can be treated by your veterinarian if treatment is started soon with antibiotics and intravenous fl uids. It is possible to prevent infection with a Leptospira vaccination at your annual check-up. The vaccination immu-nizes dogs against the fi ve most common strains of Leptospira.

Up, up and delayedPhoto by Jeremy Jones
Junior Steven Queoff cleared a personal best 6 feet, 4 inches Tuesday at Lussier Stadium to win the Big Eight Conference high jump title. Teammate Matt Dietlin took third in the event. All field events were completed before lightning forced the meet to be postponed to Wednesday prior to the boys 4x100-meter relay.
Lightning forces postponement to Wednesday following 2 hour delayJeremy JonesSports editor
Verona boys and girls track and field teams saw Tuesday’s Big Eight Conference meet postponed to 5 p.m. Wednesday after a two-hour lightning delay.
It was a fitting, albeit, a bizarre
end to a spring unlike anything most coaches have seen.
The postponement likely meant the cancellation of Wednesday’s frosh/soph conference race in Janesville. It left Verona seniors forced with the decision whether to attend Senior Awards night Wednesday or return to Lussier Stadium as Wildcat coaches were unsuccessful in trying to push the meet’s start time from 5 p.m. up to 4 to accommodate the award cer-emony.
Boys
The Wildcats traveled to Monona Friday for the Monona Grove Invita-tional in a little bit of a preview of the Big Eight Conference meet.
Senior Matt Dietlin was the only Wildcat to finish in the top three, winning the high jump with a height of 6-4. Teammate Steven Queoff fin-ished sixth as Verona took 13th out of 20 with 29 points.
Stevens Point won the meet with 123, while Big Eight rivals Madison Memorial (85), Middleton (80) and Madison La Follette (62) rounded out the top four.

Verona Home Talent player Luke Yapp rounds first base after unloading a two-run home run in the fourth inning at Ridgeway. Yapp, who hit a grand slam in the first inning, helped the Cavaliers avenge last season’s loss at Ridgeway with Sunday’s 13-0 victory.

Conference, regional titles in reachAnthony IozzoAssistant sports editor
The Verona boys golf team’s performance last Wednesday and Thursday at the Morgan Stanley Shoot-out at Hawks Landing Golf Course bodes well if results continue for the Big Eight Conference meet and region-als.
The Wildcats, ranked No. 8 in the Wisconsin High School Golf Association poll, finished first with a pair of 310s (620) to edge Madi-son Memorial, ranked No. 4, which shot a 318 and a 305 (623). Middleton, ranked No. 10, was third with a 317 and a 319 (631).
Honorable mention Beloit Memorial wasn’t at the meet but it shot a 321 at Beloit Invi-tational at Krueger Haskell Golf Course on May 3.

Verona unable to keep paceJeremy JonesSports editor
Verona softball played to 15-3 and 8-5 victories over Janesville Craig on Mon-day at the Janesville Youth Sports Complex after last Thursday’s was rescheduled once again due to inclement weather.
Claudia Kepler was 4-for-4 at the plate with three doubles in the first game as Verona rolled 15-3 in five innings. Pitcher Emma Ray (3-for-4), Taylor Maier (2-for-3) and Shannon Whit-mus (2-for-4) all collected multiple hits.
Leslie Banzhaf homered in the nightcap as the Wild-cats prevailed 8-5.
Ray allowed six earned runs and struck out a com-bined 10 hitters over the course of 12 innings.
Madison La Follette 2, Verona 1 (8 inn.)
Verona only managed three hits and struck out 18
times Tuesday at Olbricht Park. Host Madison La Fol-lette Lancers, meanwhile, was not about to squander another double-digit strike-out performance by ace Nicole Newman as Ariana Sweeney singled up the mid-dle to plate the go-ahead run in the bottom of the eighth.
The loss knocked Verona out of any possible chance at a co-conference title.

After a 0-3 start in the Big Eight Conference season, the Verona girls soccer team was in need of improve-ment if it was to move up in the standings and help its seed for the playoffs.
The Wildcats did just that in the last few weeks, tying Middleton (April 30) and non-conference Ore-gon (May 7) and defeating Janes-ville Parker (May 2) and Madison La Follette (May 3).
Verona (5-6-2 overall, 3-3-1 con-ference) continued its upward trend last Thursday with a 3-1 win over Madison East and last Friday a 2-1 win over non-conference Madison Edgewood.
The Wildcats had a little setback Monday in a 4-0 loss at Hartland Arrowhead.

The Wildcats scored once in the sixth and twice in the seventh to cut the deficit for a third time, but it wasn’t enough.
Freshman Keaton Knuep-pel started on the mound and took the loss. He worked 5 1/3 innings and allowed six earned runs on five hits. He walked four and struck out seven. Kermicle finished the game. He went 1 2/3 innings and allowed two earned runs on four hits. He walked two.

The 4x800 of Erik Wick-strom, Ben Feller, Andrew Husbands and Alex Anderson finished in sixth place as well.
Big 8 conference meetDespite battling through
what he called “major shin splits,” Queoff bested Middle-ton junior Andy Keeler with a personal best 6-4 to win the Big Eight high jump competi-tion.
Having two attempts to clear the height, Queoff slid over the bar on his first attempt, while Keeler missed on all three tries.
Verona’s only conference title on Tuesday, it all came a year earlier than even Queoff was expecting.
“It was my goal to win conference my senior year,” he said. “I definitely wasn’t expecting to do it tonight.”
Queoff hasn’t even been the top jumper on his own team.
“I’m sure it’s probably hap-pened way back, but he’s had me in everything the past cou-ple of years,” Queoff said of teammate Matt Dietlin, who finished third.
Earlier in the meet Queoff leapt to fifth place in the triple jump, only to be bested by Dietlin, who took third with a huge PR of his own (42-11).
Dietlin and teammate Ben Hansen vaulted to all-con-ference honors earlier in the meet, clearing 11-6 and 11 feet for fourth and fifth place, respectively.
Tindall finished fifth in the 100-meter dash (11.60), while Hartnett took fifth in the 110 hurdles.
Joe Pagura earned all-con-ference honors in the shot put (top three), while Adam Stiner did the same in the discus.
Following a two hour light-ning delay the meet was post-poned to Wednesday through 14 of 18 events.
GirlsSenior Katy Miller and
the 4x100-meter relay raced to victories Saturday at the Monona Grove Invitational as the Wildcats (109 ½) finished runner-up to Big Eight Con-ference rival Middleton (154 ½). Madison Edgewood (98 1/2) and Monona Grove (94) rounded out the top four.
Miller won the 300-meter hurdles with a time of 47.43 seconds, while Shannon Ker-rigan, Kylie Schmaltz, Ogi Ifediora and freshman Lexi
Alt claimed the 4x100 relay in 53.47.
Junior Jenni LaCroix added a runner-up finish in the 600 run with a time 1:44.68, while senior Nichole Bathe took second in the 1000 (3:24.31). Nikki Zimbrick cleared a per-sonal best 9-3 to finish runner-up in the pole vault.
Senior Jordan Bartholf add-ed another runner-up in the shot put (35-9 ¾) and sixth in the discus (105-6).
Katy Miller, Kerrigan, Schmaltz and LaCroix fin-ished runner-up in the 4x200 with a time of 1:48.74, while Nicole Noltemeyer, Karen Wong, Aylise Grossenbacher-McGlamery and Asia Christ-offel added a second-place finish in the 4x400 (4:20.95).
Verona got a pair of third-place finishes from Europa Christoffel in the 100 hurdles (18.01) and Hannah Miller in the 400 dash (1:03.52)
Miller went on to finish fourth in the 100-meter dash (13.87), as did Erica Higgins in the 800 (2:44.10) and Kay-leigh Hannifan in the 1600 (6:14.07).
Europa Christoffel scored three points for the Wildcats in the triple jump (31-7 ½) with six place, while Alt cleared 7-6 for sixth place in the pole vault. Ifediroa reached 4-8 for seventh in the long jump.
Big 8 conference meetVerona’s 4x200 relay team
looked well on its way to the squad’s first Big Eight title Tuesday at Lussier Stadium when Sun Prairie out leaned
the Wildcats for first place by one hundredth of a second.
Getting out to a solid start on Kerrigan’s leg, the Wild-cats had a couple of shaky exchanges, which hurt them.
Schmaltz and Katy Miller helped give LaCroix the lead going into the final turn, but she was unable to hold off Cardinal anchor Tori Sharp.
Bartholf also secured all-conference honors, taking third in the shot put.
Europa Christoffel placed fifth in the 100 hurdles (17.58), while Noltenmey-er finished sixth in the 400 (1:02.94).
Zimbrick finished in the top five of the pole vault.
meet. But with only 16 strokes separating the best and worst scores listed above, there is not much room for error, which is something head coach Jon Rebholz said last week following Verona’s 9-0 Big Eight dual season.
The tournament is at 8 a.m. Thursday at Evansville Golf Course.
But the room for error gets even tighter at 9 a.m. Tues-day, May 21, at the Middle-ton regional at Pleasant View Golf Course.
Not only are Madison Memorial and Middleton in Verona’s regional, but hon-orable mention Stoughton, Waunakee and Sauk Prairie will be there as well. Oregon and Madison West round out
the competition. Waunakee took fifth at the
Morgan Stanley Shootout with a 320 and a 334, while Sauk Prairie shot a 317 at its season finale May 10 at the Reedsburg Invitational at Reedsburg Country Club. Stoughton has shot below 320 as well, and that means that if the winner shoots a 305, it might only be 12 strokes ahead of a fifth-place team.
But with seniors Tyler Reinecke, Caleb Baltes and Matt Feller leading the way and juniors John Tackett and Riley Schmitz shooting in the low 80s to upper 70s at times this season, the Wildcats are expected to make sectionals if the scores hold.
However, if they do not make it as a team, all five golfers have a shot to make
sectionals individually, espe-cially Reinecke and Baltes.
Baltes won the Morgan Stanley Shoot out with a 70 and a 74, to edge Memorial’s Peter Webb (74-71). Reinecke was third with a 76 and a 71.
Spartan InvitationalThe Wildcats visited Black-
hawk Country Club Monday to play in the Spartan Invita-tional and finished second to Madison Memorial (303) with a 315.
Baltes led Verona with a 72 and finished second behind Webb after a playoff.
Reinecke (73), Feller (80) and Schmitz (90) finished the scoring.
Beloit Memorial (330) and Middleton (337) finished third and fourth, respectively.

Monday’s votes did not clear the way fully for Campus 4 and Campus 5. Epic will still need to go through a court process to get Northern Lights Road moved, and in fact, the company has to come back with building plans for each campus, as well as plans for a fourth garage, all of which will require public hearings.
But with months of exca-vation work ahead before it can lay a single brick and at least 1,000 more employ-ees than it can fit in Vero-na, the company wanted to get in the ground as soon as possible, and Monday’s approvals were by far the most important in the pro-cess. Most of the others are formalities or related
to architectural standards that Epic almost always exceeds.
Now, the city and com-pany can turn their attention to preparations for support-ing the new campuses, in terms of energy and traffic and making sure that the endless construction does not become a nuisance to residents when it moves to the east.
Already, construction plans are being put together for a second lane onto the bypass and Well No. 5 is a few months from establish-ing a new water source on the west side of the city. And Monday, the city also annexed 40 acres for Epic to build a substation to con-nect to its wind farm and bore fields for its geother-mal heating and cooling system.
Monday’s major votes for Epic’s new campus – which Alds. Luke Diaz and Dale Yurs had been previously recommended to abstain from because of conflicts of interest – essentially accomplished three things:
• Allowed a new set of buildings to be built
• Consolidated and sub-divided the land to suit the new plan and established zoning
• Asked the circuit court to clear the right-of-way for the current Northern Lights Road
Hotel gets supportAlders also gave favor-
able reviews to another complicated set of plans, for a 91-unit Fairfield Inn and Suites hotel that would be located one block from and owned by the same local developer as the Holi-day Inn Express on West Verona Avenue.
The topic was a discus-sion only, as a “concept plan” for a planned unit development, and no action could be taken. The council was asked to give feedback to help guide developers.
The council’s comments were similar to those of the Plan Commission a week earlier, minor questions about parking, delivery of vehicles and building mate-rials. In general, alders sup-ported the idea, which will
require some trading of land and the waiving of set-back requirements in order to fit into an odd-shaped site that has a large hill and will be surrounded by three separate roads and a storm-water pond.
Fire chief searchThe council took a sec-
ond step toward establish-ing the leadership of the new city fire department by authorizing the Police and Fire Commission to spend at least $75,000 on a salary for its fire chief.
The PFC has ye t to decide how to choose a fire chief for the new depart-ment, which begins Jan. 1 with the dissolution of the Verona Fire District. It could begin a new search or hire the existing depart-ment’s chief, Joe Giver.
Monday’s vote allowed the PFC to work at mini-mum within the framework of the current Verona Fire District budget. Alders, however, had some misgiv-ings about authorizing the amount without seeing fig-ures for salaries at compa-rable departments, despite a salary survey being com-pleted two years ago when Giver was hired.
The eventual motion clar-ified that the commission could return for a higher amount if needed after it examines comparables.
as a political bloc of votes – the four new alders, who had managed an unprec-edented election sweep. That meant any successful candidate now had to earn all but one vote.
On Monday, council president Ald. Mac McGil-vray (Dist. 1) offered what he considered to be a com-promise, by nominating one of the four new alders, Heather Reekie (Dist. 4), rather than Yurs, because she is a member of only one of the four standing committees.
“It’d be nice for you to do it, because it’s a work-load, that everybody has to pick up the pieces,” McGilvray said.
But after Ald. Scott Manley (Dist. 2) – the only remaining alder with experience on the com-mission – reported that he had spoken with Yurs and was comfortable support-ing him, Reekie nominated Yurs to compete with her, then voted for Yurs over herself.
After an awkward 5-2 vote (with Dist. 3 Ald. Luke Diaz vot ing for Reekie and McGilvray chuckling as he supported his nomination of Reekie, knowing it would force a draw), McGilvray quickly nominated Yurs, ending a monthlong stalemate over a single commission appointment.
E a c h o f t h e f o u r new alders had asked
individually to be nomi-nated to the Plan Com-mission, and none voted in any of the six votes for Charles or Manley.
Some of the four return-ing alders had complained the new four got assistance from area lobbying groups and the county Democratic Party and were represent-ing county or Madison interests, rather than those of the city. So when the high-profile Plan Com-mission seat went up for a vote, the incumbents showed strong reserva-tions, particularly since two of the incumbents had served on the commission before.
But after the April 22 meeting got testy – with Charles pounding his fist and Yurs barking a com-plaint about respect – Charles decided to quit, stating the belief that the four new alders would vote as one and disrupt the city’s progress.
On Monday, there was no evidence of a lingering effect of that tiff unless it was a touch of extra polite-ness to make up for it.
Refinancing will save $600K or moreJim FerolieVerona Press editor
The city will save at least $600,000 by refinancing some long-term debt it took out between three and six years ago.
Mike Harrigan of Ehlers Inc., the city’s financial adviser, told the Com-mon Council on Monday that because there will be competitive bids, the num-ber could be even higher but that in the worst-case
scenario, a set of 20-year bonds from 2010 will save $230,000 – or $190,000 in today’s dollars – and a set of bonds from 2007 will save $384,000, or $309,000 in today’s dollars, all after factoring out the costs of refinancing.
The sav ings wi l l be spread out over multiple years, and some of it won’t begin until 2016.
Harrigan said a munici-pality should consider a refinance when the savings
equals 2 percent of the prin-cipal and that one bond will be the equivalent of 8 per-cent and the other will be 10 percent.
The bond sale, along with a separate issuance of almost $2.5 million, will be later this month after the city goes through the Moody’s rating process, and the city likely will vote on accepting the bids in June, as usual. The city vot-ed Monday to authorize the bond sales.
The new bonds will pay for a variety of projects, all part of the 2013 budget. Among them are more than $800,000 in road mainte-nance, about $600,000 to replace fire engine No. 2, about $500,000 for plan-ning and design of the new fire/EMS station and more than $400,000 for new radio and communication equipment and infrastruc-ture related to the Dane-Com system.
Road upgrades beginThe city’s annual set
o f road rep lacements began Monday with Mark Drive.
Contractors will replace the gutters and driveways, which will be closed for about a week at a time, and will tear up streets one side at a time so on-street parking will still be avail-able.

behaviors. At least two times before
her death, Biederman had said she wanted to go “home,” according to the report, including once in October. The more recent event, on March 5, was not documented by staff but discovered through DHS interviews.
The state report noted that despite these behaviors, the woman was not wearing a “wanderguard” bracelet that would have activated door alarms. Howard said Biederman had worn the bracelet for the first year she was at the facility “until we got to know her.” She said Biederman, who had been there three years and had family in Verona, was known to her staff for sit-ting by the front door for long periods of time.
“That was who Edna was,” she said. “It wasn’t uncommon.”
As a result, she said, Bie-derman was not assessed as a risk to wander away.
But on the morning of March 8, the woman’s body was found outside the facil-ity by a staff member in 13-degree weather. Though visual bed checks every two
hours are part of the facil-ity’s protocol, the resident assistant on duty that night admitted to police that she hadn’t seen Biederman after 1 a.m.
Moreover, the woman, whom the report said was described as “shuffling” when she walked and need-ed more than 10 minutes to go from her room to the dining hall, would have had to travel more than half a football field’s length to get from her room to the exit, one of two in the facil-ity that were not normally locked from the inside overnight.
Howard had no answer for the missing bedchecks but said it was entirely plausible that the assistant could have been busy help-ing another resident for enough time for Bieder-man to make her way to the door, an emergency-only exit that locks to the outside
upon closing.“I have to trust the staff
that we hire are compe-tent,” Howard said. “I had no previous indication that she wasn’t doing her job.”
The facility’s response included installing door alarms that will deliver a “loud, piercing” sound if any resident exits, as well as pendants all residents will wear that act as nurse call buttons, pagers for all staff that will indicate any breach and video cameras at the outdoor entrances. Howard said the facility had already been contem-plating the mobile nurse call buttons, but having to take the other precautions works against the feel of the facility she prefers to have.
“This is their home,” she said. “I don’t have alarms in my home.”
In addition, staff proce-dures have been updated, Howard said, including a written notation in assis-tants’ job description that routine bed checks must include a visual contact with each resident. That had been understood, she said, but apparently not fol-lowed.
“This could have hap-pened to any facility,” she said.

Honors jazzTwo Verona Area High School musicians performed last Thursday at the University of Wisconsin-Madison as part of an honors jazz band program for roughly 15 high school students from Madison, Middleton, Waunakee and Verona. Senior Sami Burse, left, and junior saxophonist Sam Douglass, right, successfully auditioned to join the group after they were nominated to join by VAHS jazz director Paul Heinecke. They were led by UW professor Johannes Wallman, center, during a performance that preceded a concert by the UW jazz orchestra.

A team represent ing Sugar Creek Elementary School recently won high-est honors in the Word-Masters Challenge – a national vocabulary com-petition involving nearly 150,000 students annu-ally, which consists of three separate meets held at intervals throughout the school year.
Competing in the very difficult Gold Division of the WordMasters Chal-lenge, the school’s third grade team tied for seventh place in the nation in this year’s second meet, among 127 teams participating in their division.
T h e s t u d e n t s w e r e coached by Jeanette Fei-farek and Amy Buss.
Fifth-graders Colleen Quinn, Hannah Amell and
Mia Hoeve each earned a perfect score of 20 in the February meet. Nationally, only 27 third graders and 21 fifth graders achieved a perfect score.
Other students from Sug-ar Creek Street Elementary School who achieved out-standing results in the meet include third graders Aidan Rindfleisch, Katie Linder, Joe Kyle and Cleo Becker, and fourth grader George Robards.
The WordMasters Chal-leng is an exercise in critical thinking that first encourages students to become familiar with a set of interesting new words (considerably harder than grade level), and then chal-lenges them to use those words to complete analo-gies expressing various
kinds of logical relation-ships. Working to solve the analogies helps stu-dents learn to think both analytically and metaphor-ically.
Although most vocabu-lary enrichment and anal-ogy-solving programs are designed for use by high school students, Word-Masters Challeng materials have been specifically cre-ated for younger students in grades 3 through 8.

Please be advised of the follow-ing requirements to appear before the Board of Review and procedural require-ments if appearing before the Board:
No person shall be allowed to ap-pear before the Board Review, to testify to the Board by telephone or to contest the amount of any assessment of real or personal property if the person has refused a reasonable written request by certified mail of the Assessor to view such property. After the first meeting of the Board of Review and before the Board’s final adjournment, no person who is scheduled to appear before the Board of Review may contact, or provide information to a member of the Board about the person’s objection except at a session of the Board.
No person may appear before the Board of Review, testify to the Board by telephone or contest the amount of the assessment unless, at least 48 hours before the first meeting of the Board or at least 48 hours before the objec-tion is heard if the objection is allowed because the person has been granted a waiver of the 48-hour notice of an intent to file a written objection by appearing before the Board during the first two hours of the meeting and showing good cause for failure to meet the 48-hour no-tice requirement and files a written ob-jection, that the person provides to the clerk of the Board of Review notice as to whether the person will ask for removal of any Board members and, if so, which member will be removed and the per-son’s reasonable estimate of the length of time that the hearing will take.
When appearing before the Board of Review, the person shall specify, in writing, the person’s estimate of the val-ue of the land and of the improvements that are the subject of the person’s objection and specify the information that the person used to arrive at that estimate.
No person may appear before the Board of Review, testify to the Board or by telephone or object to a valuation; if
that valuation was made by the Asses-sor or the Objector using the income method of valuation; unless the person supplies the Assessor all the informa-tion about income and expenses, as specified in the Assessor’s manual un-der Sec. 73.03 (2a) of WI S.S., that the Assessor requests. The Town of Verona has an ordinance for the confidential-ity of information about income and ex-penses that is provided to the Assessor under this paragraph which provides exceptions for persons using informa-tion in the discharge of duties imposed by law or the duties of their office or by order of a court. The information that is provided under this paragraph, unless a court determined that it is inaccurate, is not subject to the right of inspection and copying under section 19.35 (1) of WI S.S.
The Board shall hear upon oath, by telephone, all ill or disabled persons who present to the Board a letter from a physician, surgeon or osteopath that confirms their illness or disability. No other persons may testify by telephone.
