America's Protein Obsession Is Transforming the Dairy Industry
Ken Heiman is a certified Master Cheesemaker, one of four who ensure that the Cheddar, Gouda and other cheeses made at Nasonville Dairy in Marshfield, Wis., taste great. But as proud as he is of his cheese, Mr. Heiman knows that his company's profitability these days is thanks less to Colby than it is to whey, the liquid byproduct of cheese making that helps to satisfy America's seemingly insatiable appetite for added protein. Nasonville Dairy produces around 150,000 pounds of cheese a day, but just breaks even on most of it, especially the 40-pound blocks of Cheddar that are a cheesemaker's stock in trade. What increasingly keeps the lights on is whey. 'We ought to be thanking people who are buying whey protein at Aldi's,' said Mr. Heiman, who, in addition to being a Master Cheesemaker, is Nasonville's chief executive. 'It definitely enhances the bottom line.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

From Stonehill to the NHL: Pittsburgh Penguins name Canton's Dan Muse head coach
The Pittsburgh Penguins' coaching search led them right back to the South Shore. Can't blame them for dipping into that well again. Marshfield's Mike Sullivan spent 10 seasons behind the Pens' bench, winning 409 regular-season games and guiding them to Stanley Cups in 2016 and 2017. The former BC High and Boston University star parted ways with the team this spring after a third straight non-playoff campaign. Advertisement On Wednesday, Pittsburgh announced Sullivan's successor -- New York Rangers assistant Dan Muse, who grew up in Canton (as well as Northern California and Alabama, among other places), played at Stonehill College in Easton, and got his coaching start at Milton Academy in 2005. Nashville Predators head coach John Hynes talks with assistant coach Dan Muse, right, during the first period against the Boston Bruins at Bridgestone Arena on Jan. 7, 2020. Muse, 42, becomes the third active NHL head coach with ties to Ledgerland. Sullivan wasn't out of work long, taking the Rangers' job on May 2. And Marshfield product Ryan Warsofsky, who played at both Marshfield High (he was a Patriot Ledger All-Scholastic) and Cushing Academy, will be entering his second season with the San Jose Sharks in the 2025-26 season. Warsofsky also served as the U.S. coach for this spring's IIHF World Championship, leading the Americans to their first gold medal since 1960. Muse becomes the 23rd head coach in Penguins' history. Advertisement "During this process, we met with many candidates who we felt would have been a fit as the next head coach of the Penguins, but ultimately, Dan Muse stood out as the best choice. What separated Dan was his ability to develop players, win at all levels where he has been a head coach and his consistent success coaching special teams in the NHL," President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Kyle Dubas said in a statement. "From his success in developing college and junior players, to his impactful work with veteran players during his time in the NHL, Dan has shown a proven ability to connect with players at all stages of their careers and help them to reach their potential." "Additionally, his leadership of special teams units at the NHL level in both Nashville and New York produced elite results consistently. His overall body of work, attention to detail and vision for our group showed us that he is the best coach to take our team forward. We're excited to welcome Dan, and his family, to the city of Pittsburgh." Nov 26, 2017; Raleigh, NC, USA; Nashville Predators assistant coach Dan Muse talks to the players during the time out during the third period against the Carolina Hurricanesat PNC Arena. The Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Nashville Predators 4-3 in the shoot out on Nov. 26, 2017. Muse has 20 years of coaching experience, including five seasons in the NHL as an assistant coach with the New York Rangers (2023-25) and Nashville Predators (2017-20). He also coached in college, including a stint at Yale as an assistant (2009-14) and associate head coach (2015), helping the Bulldogs win the 2013 national title, ironically in the Penguins' building. He also coached at Sacred Heart University (2008-09) and Williams College (2007-08). Advertisement Between his college and NHL days, he served as the head coach of the Chicago Steel of the United States Hockey League from 2015-17. Chicago won the franchise's first-ever Clark Cup Championship under his watch in 2016-17. Muse played four seasons at Division III Stonehill beginning in 2001-02. He recorded 5 goals and 6 assists over 61 games. "You have to believe in yourself, you have to believe in what you do," Muse is quoted as saying in a story by Taylor Haase of "When you've done everything you can do to prepare, you go into anything with more confidence. ... I've always been coaching higher levels than I played. Always. Every level I've coached has been a higher level than I played. I was probably more intimidated going into the locker room for the first time at Sacred Heart, coaching Division I (than going into the Predators locker room). Advertisement "I wasn't just a D3 player, I was a bad D3 player," Must continued. "Those stats, those were padded stats! I had a couple of phantom assists in there! Those weren't even real, worse than that! But it's like, I've always been doing that. It's not new to me. I know what I was as a player, I shouldn't have even been a D3 player. That was part of my journey. You have to take that same approach and put it into coaching. Put in the work. Go in there, be confident, and be proud of what you present."

Wausau daycare owner charged after baby in care suffers skull fracture and brain bleeding
WAUSAU − A home daycare operator is facing a felony charge after a 4-month-old baby she cared for was hospitalized with a skull fracture, brain bleeding and a hemorrhage in her eye. Shawna L. Munguia, 35, of Wausau, faces a charge of physical abuse of a child recklessly causing great bodily harm. Marathon County Circuit Judge Rick Cveykus set a $2,500 cash bail June 2 during Manguia's initial appearance. She's scheduled for a hearing on June 9. According to the criminal complaint, at 12:55 a.m. May 15, a woman brought her 4-month-old daughter to a Wausau hospital after the baby began throwing up. The baby was then transferred to Marshfield Medical Center in Marshfield. The mother said her baby had been at an in-home daycare center run by Munguia on May 14. When the mother went to pick the baby up at 4:30 p.m. May 14, she saw light bruising on the top of the baby's head, and Munguia said a child had fallen into Munguia while Munguia was holding the baby, causing the injury, according to the complaint. More local news: 2 women hospitalized, one with life-threatening injuries, after Marathon County house fire More local news: Wausau woman charged in 2-year-old daughter's overdose death Doctors examining the baby at the hospital determined she had a skull fracture on the left side of her head, evidence of old and new brain bleeding, bruising on the left side of her head and hemorrhaging in her eyes, with it being worse in her right side, according to the complaint. A doctor told detectives the injuries could not have happened from the incident Munguia described, according to the complaint. Detectives interviewed Munguia, who told them she didn't know how the baby got the injuries. When officers said the baby couldn't have been so seriously hurt from the child falling into Munguia, she said another child had fallen on the baby 10 times, according to the complaint. Detectives showed Munguia a text message she had sent her husband stating that she was caring for a baby who wouldn't stop crying. The detective said the message sounded like Munguia was frustrated, according to the complaint. Munguia admitted she had become frustrated when all the other children were down for naps, but the baby wouldn't stop crying. She said she picked the baby up from the couch, shook her and told her to stop crying, according to the complaint. Munguia said she didn't remember how many times she shook the baby back and forth, but she didn't think it was many times. The detectives then arrested Munguia on suspicion of child abuse recklessly causing great bodily harm.

No. 18 Burlington girls' lacrosse erases a three-goal deficit in Division 2 victory over No. 15 Marshfield
'We did not stop, at all,' said Burlington senior CJ Tremblay. 'Even when we were down, we just kept fighting. We had a great fourth quarter. Everyone was putting their body on the line. That's all you can ask for in a game like this, especially with such a young team.' Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Tremblay, junior Ava Robitaille, and sophomore Emma Steiner paced Burlington with three goals apiece. Junior Mairin Condon made 12 saves, including a critical one with 22 seconds left, and fearless freshman Georgia Bilodeau battled on the draw with Marshfield junior Julia O'Brien all night. Advertisement Clara McGrath converts for Marshfield to trim Burlington's lead to 14-13 with 3:10 left — Trevor Hass (@TrevorHass) Junior Clara McGrath fueled the 15th-seeded Rams (12-7) with five goals, and senior Noelle Finucane tallied four. Marshfield, hosting its first non-preliminary-round tournament game in program history, displayed plenty of fight as well in a physical, well-played battle. 'Burlington is such a talented program,' said Marshfield coach Sabrina Santaniello. 'We were matched up pretty well for this. It just came down to literally the last 10 seconds. I'm proud of my team this entire season. What a ride. I'm proud of my seniors. I couldn't have asked for a better team this season.' Advertisement Marshfield led, 3-2, through 1, 8-6 at halftime, and 11-8 late in the third, behind a steady diet of Finucane and McGrath and well-timed cuts. Gabby Colozzi made it 11-9 through 3, then Robitaille notched three timely goals in the first six minutes of the fourth to vault the Red Devils in front, 14-12. McGrath added one more with 3:10 left before Condon and her teammates secured one final stop. Girls lacrosse final: Burlington 14, Marshfield 13 18th-seeded Red Devils storm back and outlast the 15th-seeded Rams in a thriller. Huge save from Mairin Condon late. A truly outstanding game — Trevor Hass (@TrevorHass) The Red Devils ran out the clock, with Steiner hoisting her stick in the air, letting out a scream, and joining her teammates for the celebration near the Burlington net. 'I told them to just keep playing our game,' said Burlington first-year coach Maddy Skiff. 'Be patient, do what we do best, work together. We did that, and we came out on top.' Burlington's Emma Steiner (No. 9) exults in her team's 14-13 victory over host Marshfield in a Division 2 girls' lacrosse matchup. Barry Chin/Globe Staff Burlington learned from close regular-season losses to Lexington, Bedford, North Andover, and Ipswich. The setbacks yielded a deceiving record, as this was not a typical No. 18 seed. Tremblay, whom Skiff described as 'one tough cookie,' said it was her favorite lacrosse game ever. 'Honestly, my mind went blank,' Tremblay said. 'It's just such an amazing feeling. As a senior, I don't have many games left, so I'm taking it all in, but it's the best one I could ask for.'
