An amendment to the Illinois Alcoholism and Other Drug Abuse and Dependency Act in January 2010 made it legal for non-medical professionals to administer an opioid antidote such as Narcan.

Responding to a record number of heroin overdose deaths in DuPage County last year, health department officials are equipping police officers with a new tool to combat the deadly epidemic.

Many suburban law enforcement agencies, including the DuPage County Sheriff’s office and the Westmont Police Department, have started supplying their officers with Narcan, a trade name for the opioid antagonist drug Naloxone. Naloxone can reverse the effects of a heroin overdose by blocking opioid receptors in the brain.

“Flushing of the water distribution system is performed every year primarily to remove sediment in pipes,” Michael Smyth, senior manager of field services and production for the Chicago Metro District. “An annual flushing program helps to keep fresh and clear water throughout the distribution

system.”

Illinois American Water will place signs in neighborhoods where flushing is occurring so residents are aware of the system work.

Customers should refrain from doing laundry during the time of day the flushing program is taking place in or near their neighborhood.

If tap water is discolored, it is recommended that several cold-water faucets are allowed to run for a short time until the water runs clear.

Using more than one faucet allows the water to clear faster.

Senger’s record also includes…

‘Senger is a right-wing, social conservative who was handpicked by the national Republican Party’ Laura Katauskas’ article in the March 27 publication mentions what state Rep. Senger did for the state.

The reporter forgot to mention a few things that Senger also did, such as she voted against a woman’s right to choose, against marriage equality, against common sense reforms to prevent gun violence

and she repeatedly introduced anti-Obamacare legislation in Springfield.

She said her focus is to repeal Obamacare. Tell me what happens to the millions of Americans that have signed up for the Affordable Care Act? Senger hasn’t said what she would do for those Americas.

Illinois state Rep. Senger is a

right-wing, social conservative who was handpicked by the national Republican Party.

The article mentions that U.S. Rep. Foster was a rubber stamp when it came to voting. One of the toughest things for Foster, while serving in the U.S. House, is sitting through the relentless barrage of illogical talking points from the Republican majority.

Westmont Special Events corporation celebrates 10th anniversary Organization will also hold a special ribbon cutting ceremony during the open house The Westmont Special Events Corporation will be celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2014.

The board members and volunteers have already been busy planning for the summer events of 2014 and are kicking things off with their annual

>> NARCAN, from page 1 “This is a life-saving tool for our officers,” said Westmont Police Chief Tom Mulhearn, whose department started carrying the drug last month. “Sometimes, we may be on the scene first before the fire department.”

The Westmont Police Department is one of 23 law enforcement agencies in DuPage County that have been trained by the DuPage Narcan Program to use the opioid antagonist. The DNP was established by the DuPage County Health Department last fall in order to oversee the training and distribution of Narcan to local law enforcement.

Karen Ayala, executive director of the DuPage County Health Department, said the DNP began training six initial departments in November 2013. Currently, there are more than 1,100 trained officers in DuPage County and four additional police departments are scheduled to begin training April 1.

“I think the police on the street who have been forced to respond to these tragedies are extremely grateful to have a life-saving strategy available to them,” Ayala said. “That is in essence what this program is all about.”

An amendment to the Illinois Alcoholism and Other Drug Abuse and Dependency Act in January 2010 made it legal for non-medical professionals to administer an opioid antidote such as Narcan.

Since that time, DuPage County has experienced an increasing number of deaths attributed to heroin overdose. Between 2010

open house 5 to 7 p.m.Thursday, April 10. To celebrate, Westmont Special Events will also hold a special ribbon cutting ceremony during the open house.

Westmont Special Events Corporation is a volunteer-driven organization that coordinates community events in the village of Westmont, including the Taste of Westmont and the weekly Westmont Street Fair. This year marks the 10th anniversary of Westmont Special Events being established as a non-profit organization.

Residents and business owners are invited to join Westmont Special Events for an evening of music, refreshments and mingling. The Open House will be held at Westmont Centre, 1 S. Cass Ave. “The open house will be the first opportunity for the community to sign up to volunteer at the Taste,” Office Manager Kristine Turano said. “Each year, hundreds of volunteers come out to support these events, and reserve their free Taste of Westmont T-Shirt.”

and 2013,there were 136 overdose deaths in the county, culminating with 46 deaths in 2013.

Mulhearn said it was this dramatic increase in heroin overdoses that provided the impetus for DuPage County law enforcement and medical professionals to begin the Narcan program.

The DuPage County Sheriff’s Office became the first agency in DuPage County to successfully reverse the effects of a heroin overdose using Narcan. Sheriff deputies responded to a call in unincorporated Villa Park at 1:20 a.m.March 22.A deputy recognized the female victim was showing signs of a heroin overdose, and he used Narcan to save the woman’s life.

“I think all of us felt good that we were part of saving a life,” said DeTella of the Narcan program. “I don’t think any of us want to use it because it means that someone was in that condition to begin with. But the idea that the work we did had that end result, I think everybody was happy.”

The deployment of officers trained in administering Narcan is just one component of an overall strategy to fight the spread of heroin into the county.

Ayala said that strategy includes the Narcan program, prevention and education, and advocating for, what she calls,“safe prescriber practices.”

“I think that we realize very keenly that the DuPage Narcan Program is one piece to an overall strategy to reduce the use of heroin and other opioids in the community,” she said, adding that many people who use heroin begin their opioid addiction with legally prescribed pain medicine.

DuPage County has had only four confirmed heroin overdose deaths so far this year, and county health professionals are hopeful this low number is a sign that the overall strategy is working.

How to save a life Before a police officer is equipped with Narcan, he or she is required to undergo training.

George DeTella, a project coordinator with DNP, said the program serves three main functions: providing affiliated law enforcement agencies with a standing order to dispense Naloxone; supplying those agencies with drug;and overseeing the training of officers.

He said each police department chooses an officer who is trained by the DNP. That trained officer then goes back to their specific department to train its remaining officers.

Their training consists of three major components, DeTella said.

The trainer, first, reviews the laws relating to Narcan, as well as its effects. Next, officers learn how to safely store and handle the drug.

The third, and most important, aspect of the training is hands-on use of the product.

Westmont Police Sgt. Brian Gruen was trained by the DNP. He then went back to his department, where he instructed his colleagues on how to administer the drug in the event of an opioid overdose.

Currently, all but two Westmont police officers have been trained on how to use Narcan, Mulhearn said.

THE BUGLE APRIL 2, 2014

Horoscopes Today’s New Moon falls in your sign and indicates the start of several weeks during which you’re more cognizant of what’s really important to you and brings happiness. Do what gives you joy to be successful.

Resistance to change is futile. You tend to hold onto the old as long as it’s viable and only reach out for the new when it’s inevitable. You have a tendency to spend freely in the upcoming week, but it’s all for fun.

Some changes are for the better. New acquaintances might sweep into your life like a breath of fresh air and alter your perceptions in the week ahead. As part of the global community everyone you meet is related in some way.

The proof is in the pudding. Major changes may bring the prospect of big rewards in the week ahead, but could cause unexpected consequences, too. Ensure that the results of a desired change are worth the trouble.

Tense circumstances require tender loving care. The week ahead might present several challenging situations. Keep your cool and don’t go off halfcocked. The new lunar cycle might offer a chance to entertain unusual ideas.

Train an educated eye on ways to increase your net worth. Finances might be affected by social or government changes in the week ahead. As things break down, you might be able to pick up the leavings.

Gridlock might lock you out. The New Moon falls in your solar house of partnerships, so relationships might be of interest during the next several weeks. Tensions that begin to build now might last several weeks.

Deal with little criticisms or mistakes that crop up before beginning something new. A wave of enthusiasm might tempt you to make large expenditures, but this is not a good week to initiate major purchases or changes.

Starting something new this week might seem like an uphill climb. It’s a far better idea to contend with existing situations and keep your money in your pocket. Be prepared for unexpected bills or cash outlays.

A bad case of media frenzy might grab your attention in the week ahead. Move forward with business as usual and don’t get caught up in political situations.

Avoid starting key projects or making crucial decisions.

Affection, not perfection, matters. In the week to come, you’re better off working side by side with others than trying to go it alone. When you notice someone’s faults, remember that nobody is perfect.

Focus on your future in the week ahead. Take a vacation from mass production by eating more food that grows naturally on fewer highly processed products.

Grow healthy, wealthy and wise.

Benet’s O’Mara tabbed Player of the Year

By Scott Taylor Sports Editor

Mike Sandrolini/Bugle Staff

Maine South’s George Sargeant is a first team all-area selection.

Last year Benet’s Sean O’Mara was a first team Voyager Media Publications All-Area selection in helping the Redwings advance to a sectional final.

This year he took his game to the next level.

The 6-foot, 9-inch senior averaged 23 points and 13 rebounds and shot better than 60 percent from the field for Benet.

For his accomplishments, O’Mara has been named the 2014 Voyager Media Publications Boys Basketball Player of the Year.

“I’ve been working all summer and on our off days,” O’Mara said.“I’ve been trying to get away from my junior habit. I watched a lot of film on myself and I would step and fade away and take jumpers. I’m 6-9, I shouldn’t be taking jumpers, especially when I can get to the bucket like I can. That has been the focus for me this year.”

“He has great feet and great hands and he really understands how to play,” Benet coach Gene Heidcamp said. “He has really been a dominant player on the high school level. His game has improved every year, but this year he has been dominant from his ability to score and pass the ball.”

O’Mara showed solid athleticism throughout the year, running the court well for a fast-paced offense.

“My teammates do a great job of pushing the ball up the floor and getting the ball to me,” O’Mara said. “I have to make it count and take it strong to the hoop. It is nice to increase your shot percentage when you are dunking the ball.”

“Offensively he has had an

unbelievable year,” Heidcamp said. “He is shooing in the 60 percent and he just a dominant low post player. Not only scoring but also his ability to draw attention and pass out of it and free up our shooters makes us difficult to defend.

“He is very unselfish. He is not just a big kid. He is a big kid with a skill set and understands how to play. He has good hands and good feet and add unselfish to that and that makes a really good player.”

He is continuing his playing career at Xavier University in Cincinnati, OH, where he signed to play at earlier this year.

“It was phenomenal,” O’Mara said of signing with the Musketeers.“It was a great day in my memory. It’s hard to explain.

The process is kind of draining and you build relationships with a lot of people. Being able to sign with Xavier helped me to focus on this season and to go as far as we can.”

O’Mara’s hard work has paid off so far, and now he hopes it pays off at the next level.

“It is great to have the opportunity to play at the next level,” O’Mara said.“It helps with all the hard work I’ve put in and my coaches and teammates have put in with me at practice.

You can’t take it for granted, you have to keep working. You have to prepare yourself for the next level as well. I’m working on things you might not see at the games, but hopefully you will see it next year.”

The rest of the Voyager Media Publications All-Area first team are:

“When teams scout us, they

realize they have to limit him as much as possible,” Plainfield East coach Branden Adkins said. “In the offseason he needs to keep getting stronger and become a more dynamic player. He can take guys off the dribble and has the pull-up

Sports jumper. He is close to eclipse the 1,000-point mark. He did a lot of great things for us this year.”

PRENTISS NIXON Junior guard averaged 17 points,three rebounds and three

assists for Bolingbrook.

“Prentiss is known for his scoring, but he brings so much more to the table,” Bolingbrook coach Rob Brost said. “He defends well, can handle it, his motor never stops, and he is coachable. The best part is that I know he will continue to work extremely hard to take his game to an even higher level. He has 10-12 D-I scholarship offers.”

GEORGE SARGEANT The 6-7 junior, who’s also a wide receiver for the Maine South football team, has become one of the area’s top big men this season. He led the Hawks in both scoring (17.1 points per game) and rebounding (6.9) this winter.

“He’s kind of taken that role where we’ve always have that post player who’s dominant,” Maine South coach Tony Lavorato said. “He’s really talented and he’s still scratching the surface. He’s got a huge upside.”

TREVOR STUMPE T h e Plainfield North junior filled the stat sheet for the Tigers this year. He averaged 23.3 points, six

rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.9 steals and .83 blocks per game.

“Trevor is a player that does everything for our team,” Plainfield North coach Robert Krahulik said. “He led us in every statistic except assists. He had several big games that he kept us in games or took over the game for us. He is a player that can go either way on the drive, and is a great finisher with his left hand. He also is a great shooter who is able to create his own shots.Trevor got better defensively as the season went on.”

Second team JONAH COBLE J o l i e t C e n t r a l senior was the leading scorer for the Steelmen posting 14.9 points and 4.0 rebounds per game.

“Jonah has been a three year varsity starter who has been a staple of the program and what we have been trying to accomplish,” said Central coach Jeff Corcoran. “He has been known as a scorer that can get to the basket and finish or knock down the three. He has grown as a player at both ends of the floor for us and been a leader for us in his time at Central.”

Havelka notches 600th career victory

By Mike Sandrolini Sports Reporter

Downers South’s softball team has started each of their past few seasons playing in Champaign.

Last fall, however, coach Ron Havelka called Westosha Central High School, and DGS scheduled a game with that school— located west of Kenosha—to begin the 2014 campaign.

Westosha is the Wisconsin defending state champion in Division I—the largest division in the state—and has seven returning starters from that 23-1 team. So the Mustangs made the journey north of the border last Friday night,and ended up playing Westosha in a doubleheader on Saturday because another team from Michigan that they were supposed to face in the second game cancelled at the last minute.

Game time temperature for the start of the twin bill Saturday morning was 33 degrees, but the Mustangs’ bats were sizzling throughout the day. DGS pounded out 15 hits in a Game 1 9-4 victory, and had 12 hits en route to blanking Westosha, 11-0 in the nightcap.

The triumph in the first game also was the 600th career victory for Havelka—all of them at Downers South, where he’s starting his 22nd year.

“I’ve been very blessed and very fortunate to have some wonderful players,” Havelka said.

“I have great assistant coaches and great support from the parents and the community. It’s been a great run. I had actually forgotten about it, and they (his players) reminded me. We had a nice time (in Wisconsin). It was a lot of fun.”

The Mustangs certainly had fun beating up on Westosha pitching.

Senior shortstop Jessica Andre got things going in Game 1 by slugging a solo homer in the first inning. Senior Melissa Orton then came through with a two-out, bases-clearing double in the third that broke the game open. Junior catcher Rebekah Ondracek added a three-run homer, and Megan LoBianco, a sophomore, finished with three hits and two RBIs. Caroline Hedgcock, who went 15-8 on the mound as a freshman last spring, scattered six hits while striking out 11. Westosha scored three of its four runs off Hedgcock in the final inning.

Mark Gregory/Bugle Staff

Downers South coach Ron Havelka and team members celebrate a sectional championship last year. Havelka picked up his 600th win last week.

“He (the Westosha coach) was very complimentary of her,” said Havelka.“He said they only faced one pitcher all year last year that was comparable to her.”

If Saturday’s second game is sign of things to come, the Mustangs may very well have a solid No.2 pitcher to complement Hedgcock. Freshman Payton Buresch surrendered four hits, struck out five and didn’t allow a walk through a game that was limited to five innings because of the 10-run slaughter rule.

“She’s (Buresch) going to be pretty good, too,” Havelka said.

Sophomore Kristin Lea, who served mainly as the DH for the Mustangs last season, doubled and collected four RBIs, while Andre went 3-for-3 with two runs scored.

“I was very pleased with our start,” Havelka said. “They’re a good team. They got four runs off of Caroline Hedgcock, which isn’t easy to do.”

The Mustangs, who started five sophomores in Game 1, have a good balance of youth and senior leadership, Havelka noted. DGS will face several highcaliber opponents this season, starting with a doubleheader Saturday vs. DeKalb, which is >> see 600TH | page 16

“He can score in bunches, shoots it with range and can finish around the rim. Gage has come a long way as a person, a student and as a player. I am fortunate to have coached him and wish him the best at IPFW.”

JALEN JACKSON One of four starting sophomores for Joliet Catholic A c a d e m y, J a c k s o n averaged 14.7 points, 2.1 assists and 2.3 rebounds per game.

He shot 48 percent from the field and 40 percent from three-point range, helping the Hilltoppers to a Class 3A Sweet 16 berth.

“Even though every team we play keys on Jalen he always comes through with a solid performance and that’s remarkable for a sophomore,” said JCA coach Joe Gura.

JOE MOONEY The Notre Dame junior helped fill a leadership vacuum after the Dons lost their entire 2 0 1 2 - 1 3 starting lineup to graduation, including Mooney’s older brother, Matt. But he did a lot more than just provide leadership.

Mooney emerged as one of the top players in the ESCC, averaging 18 points, four rebounds and three assists per game in his first varsity season.

“I had no one that started a varsity basketball game (going into this season),” Notre Dame coach Tom Les said. “Joe has kind of settled us in.

“He’s been the leader. He’s been the guy (whom) we’ve put the ball in his hands when it’s crunch time.”

LOGAN VELASQUEZ The Plainfield Central senior

posted 14.9 points and 10 rebounds per game.

He also set the school’s c a r e e r rebounding r e c o r d , finishing his career with 622. He also shot 54 percent from the floor on the year.

“He is just a basketball player and I’m proud of him,” Plainfield Central coach Steve Lamberti said. “The amazing thing about it was that it was really in just two years. His sophomore year he had 75 rebounds. He works so hard and is such a nice kid.

When it is all said and done, to be one of the best basketball players in school history, we are proud of him for that.”

Third team GROVER ANDERSON Do-it-all senior led Lockport in nearly every major c a t e g o r y.

He averaged 13.4 points per game, while leading the Porters in assists (92), steals (53) and blocked shots (17). He was also second on the team with 130 total rebounds.

“Grover Anderson did an outstanding job in accepting whatever role the team needed from him on each night. He was team player on both ends of the floor,” said Lockport coach Lawrence Thompson, Jr. “Individually he improved his offense to lead us in assists and scoring. He did that with, on most nights, guarding the opposing teams best perimeter player. His attitude toward being the best teammate he could be meant a lot to our team this year.”

DEVIN BLAKE Sophomore standout for Downers N o r t h averaged 13 points and eight rebounds per game, while shooting 50 percent from the field.

“Devin is considered one of the top sophomores in the

area,” Downers North coach Jim Thomas said. “He led our team in both points and rebounds.

His passion for the game will propel him this offseason for a great 2014/15 season.”

PAUL ENGO III T h e senior from Downers S o u t h averaged 14.8 points and 4.6 rebounds per game.

He also had 36 steals and made 47 threepointers.

“Paul Engo III’s outside shooting and defense was huge for our team this season,” Downers South coach Kristopher Olson said. “He started every game and we barely ever took him off the court. Paul probably was our most improved player from the time he was a freshmen until his senior year.

“When Paul entered high school, he was on our freshmen B team and was not an outside threat. Paul’s all round game was very important to us this year.”

ANDREW PALUCKI The senior is a threeyear varsity player and two-year starter at Maine South who’s been part of three regional title teams.

Palucki does a little bit of everything for the Hawks, with averages of 12.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists and a team-best 1.6 steals per game.

“He’s grown up a lot this year,” Maine South coach Tony Lavorato said. “He’s taken a leadership role and he’s really kind of the heart and soul of our team.”

DANNY SPINUZZA Spinuzza tallied 14.1 points and 3.7 rebounds per game for Downers South.

He contr ibuted 68 assists, 40 steals and 39 three-pointers.

THE BUGLE APRIL 2, 2014 “Danny Spinuzza was a threeyear varsity starter,” Downers South coach Kristopher Olson said.“Danny started every game and we only took him out when he was in foul trouble. Danny was our floor general and he set our offense up. Danny also made the big shot when necessary. He was our best ball handler and we had no back up for him.”

Fourth team JOHN CAMPBELL Campbell averaged 12.9 points per game and paced Lockport with 194 rebounds.

He was also second in steals (48) and blocks (13).

“John Campbell improved his overall game this year stepping up to lead our team in rebounding and second to Grover in scoring,” Thompson

said. “John was the pulse of the Porters this season, he played with great passion and love for the game. John’s hard work and passionate play help us compete at a high level this season and I think that meant a lot to the Porters this season to know that every night he was going to give it all for Lockport.”

ANTONIO DYSON S e n i o r rejoined Joliet Central after moving back from Kentucky and led the Steelmen in rebounds with 7.4 per game, while being the No. 2 scorer on the team with 10.2 points per game.

It’s hard to sleep when piles of laundry, paper and other assorted Pare down your clothing clutter is “staring” at you.

Go through your closet, I wonder how many dresser and other piles of people who suffer from sleep clothing and pare down what disturbances would get a more

restful sleep simply by removing these stress-inducing items.

An easy solution is to stop yourself from bringing anything into your bedroom unless you put it away right away.

In addition, if it doesn’t support the activities you do in your bedroom (sleep, read, get dressed, insert your own fun activity here) it shouldn’t be in there.

Find another place to store such items – your sleep and your health are too important to ignore this guideline.

Be creative with storage Consider vertical storage (e.g., hooks on the wall) and underbed storage (for out of season clothes, seldom worn shoes, extra bedding) for items that won’t fit anywhere else.

Maybe a nightstand, lingerie cabinet or bookcase can give you the functional storage you need without taking up much space.

If your bedroom is anything but restful, consider spending some time de-cluttering and organizing it so it becomes a sanctuary to replenish your mind and soul.

Sustain the serenity Once you’ve turned your muddled mess into a serene sanctuary, you’ll want to be sure to keep it that way.

Get a hamper - and use it! Be sure clothes are coming out (i.e., getting laundered) at a faster rate than they’re going in.

Make your bed every morning – this simple two-minute task will quickly transform the look and feel of your room.

When you bring in your clean laundry, put it away right away – when your closet and dresser are pared down, it should take no more than five minutes to quickly and easily put things away. Since your bedroom is

the first thing you see in the morning and the last thing you see at night, be sure to tidy it up frequently so you can start and end your day calm and relaxed.

Pleasant dreams!

HOME IMPROVEMENT: Tips to green your lifestyle StatePoint

Going green at home doesn’t have to turn your life upside down.

There are simple measures you can take in your kitchen and garden to run a planet-friendly home.

reduce waste Ensure your kitchen is properly outfitted with labeled paper and plastic recycling bins. Keep these receptacles handy to encourage your family and guests to make use of them.

Take your waste reduction a step further by setting up a bin for food scraps, which you can add to your yard trimmings.

Composting creates a natural fertilizer that’s makes a planetfriendly alternative to the chemical variety.

By recycling and composting, you can join the ranks of Americans reducing the waste they send to the landfill. In fact, recycling and composting prevented 86.9 million tons of materials from being disposed in 2011 in the United

States, up from 15 million tons in 1980, according to government estimates.

Protect wildlife You may think of your yard as “yours,” but you are actually sharing the space with furry creatures, insects and birds. Habitat destruction and loss, as well other manmade and natural threats, put beautiful species like humming birds at risk.

Make your garden a safe haven with bird feeders and by planting native, sustentative shrubs, trees and flowers.

Unfortunately, bird to building collisions, particularly with windows, are estimated to kill between 100 million and 1 billion birds in the United States alone, according to a new report from the Cooper Ornithological Society.

Ensure the safety of your airborne visitors by applying static-cling decals to your windows, which helps birds detect glass, thereby avoiding injury or death. Decals

from WindowAlert, for example, rely on special ultraviolet-reflecting coating that looks like etched glass to humans, but is quite visible to birds, and add a decorative appearance to your home.

The coating can fade over time, so remember to replace decals every six to nine months.

More information can be found at www.WindowAlert.com.

eat local Source your food locally to reduce your carbon footprint. If possible, buy local, in-season fruits and vegetables that didn’t have to travel the world to reach your plate.

And while flowers are beautiful to look at -- and the right ones can provide nectar for pollinating insects and birds -- consider turning at least part of your garden into a space for herbs and vegetables to grow.

When dinner comes from your own back yard, it means fresher produce that’s good for your family, and good for the planet.

Don’t just enjoy nature this season, take care of it.

With a few small tweaks, it isn’t hard to run your home more sustainably.
