Approved Romeoville continuing with plan to maintain streets and sewers

By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

In an ongoing effort to maintain its streets and sewer system, the Village of Romeoville will continue with its long-term plans.

At the past village board meeting, various programs were approved to keep in motion the required maintenance.

“This is a big day for Romeoville looking at all the projects we are undertaking,” said Village Trustee Joe Chavez.“All these projects,the resurfacing and pipelining, saves the village money in the long run.”

An extensive long-term project, spanning 10 years to complete, involves replacing old clay sewer pipes with cured-in-place pipelining. The village awarded a contract for the 2012 Sewer Rehabilitation Cured-inPlace Pipelining project to Insituform Technologies USA, Inc., for $1.4 million.This year’s project will focus on 10 miles of pipe underground from Ashton to Honeytree.

The entire project is nearing completion, with this being the second to last year of rehabilitation, said Project Engineer Jon Zabrocki.

The village also awarded a contract of approximately $232,000 to Kim Construction Company to complete the 2012 Manhole Rehabilitation Project which includes approximately 700 vertical feet of manhole

lining, manhole frame and lid dealing.The rehabilitation is meant to reduce the amount of inflow and infiltration that enters the Romeoville wastewater treatment plants.

In addition, the village accepted a bid from Denler Inc., for nearly $185,000 to begin the Roadway Crack Sealing 2012 program.The project consists of the routing, cleaning, and sealing of approximately 500,000 lineal feet of pavement cracks at various locations throughout the village. It is hoped this action will extend the period of time before major rehabilitation will be required on certain roads.

A contract was awarded to Orange Crush, LLC, who offered the lowest proposal of nearly $639,000, to complete the Murphy Drive Resurfacing Project. The company was also selected to complete the Wesglen Subdivision Neighborhood 6 and Lakewood Falls Phase 5-23 Resurfacing project at a cost of nearly $392,000.

According to Public Works Director Dan Bromberek the village has worked with the company before and has performed satisfactorily.

Projects like these are key to maintaining the village said Trustee Linda Palmiter.

“I can remember 25 years ago when the conditions of our streets are not what they are today---now there is not a town around us that have streets like ours,” said Palmiter.

Local legislators react to Supreme Court decision

By Jonathan Samples Staff Reporter

The U.S. Supreme Court voted 5-4 Thursday to uphold the majority of the Affordable Care Act, including an individual mandate that would require Americans to purchase health insurance or face penalty.

In what is probably the most important Supreme Court decision since Bush v. Gore, the Affordable Care Act, which was passed in 2012, has raised many arguments from both sides of the aisle concerning its constitutionality.

Voyager Media reached out to U.S. and state legislators

throughout Will County to hear their reactions to the Supreme Court ruling.

U.S. Representative Judy Biggert (R-13th) “With or without the unpopular health mandate, the cost of care continues to rise, and it’s up to Republicans and Democrats alike to work across the aisle on solutions. I’m disappointed that the court did not put a stop to the government overreach. But Washington still has a responsibility to fix polices that are raising costs, hurting job creation, siphoning millions from Medicare, and placing an added layer of bureaucracy

between patients and their doctors.”

U.S. Representative Adam Kinzinger (R-11th) “Since its passage, the Affordable Care Act has caused deep divisions over its constitutionality. While I respect the ruling of the U.S. Supreme Court, I am extremely disappointed that the court has given unrestricted authority to the federal government to interfere in the personal lives of American families… I have voted 40 times to fully repeal the government takeover of health care, block the individual provisions, or defund certain

programs. The question we must ask ourselves now is whether President Obama’s newly designed health care system is feasible.”

State Sen. Pat McGuire (D-43rd) “Access to quality health care is important for all Illinoisans. I’m particularly interested in how the affirmation of the Affordable Care Act affects changes in Illinois’ Medicaid program and roposed changes in Illinois public pensions systems.”

State Sen. Christine Radogno (R-41st) “While the U.S. Supreme Court has settled the legal argument, the debate over whether it is good policy or not will continue for months. We will be very carefully reviewing the decision for opportunities to reduce any negative impact of the Affordable Care Act and its tax on Illinois citizens. The Senate Republican Caucus has worked to cut costs in the state’s Medicaid program See COURT, page 3

By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

Catch a Joliet Slammers game and help support the Romeoville American Legion Post 52 as the group continues its push to build veteran housing in the area.

The Legion is selling advanced tickets for the 7 p.m. July 20 game

for $10 each for a reserved seat.

The Slammers will be playing the Windy City Thunderbolts.

“It doesn’t cost any more than if you bought a ticket at the game— you get to catch a game, see some fireworks, and have a chance at some raffles—all while helping veterans,” said Christopher Benigno, commander of the

legion. “Participation in this event will help your veterans get the support they need and get us one step closer to building the Ray Holloway House for our homeless and returning veterans.”

In its infant stages, the group has already raised $6000 for the project but is determine to make

housing for veterans a reality.

“Most help for veterans, comes from veterans,” said Benigno.

“We are encouraging everyone in the community to help if they can. Our goal is to have veteran housing in Romeoville and be able to serve all of Will County.”

The Legion hopes to sell at least 500 tickets, and has already

sold 300. If the group sells at least 500, it will allow them to produce a 50/50 raffle which in turn will help them raise more money.

Continued from page 2 – targeting the waste, fraud and abuse that costs taxpayers hundreds of millions each year.”

Illinois House Minority Leader Tom Cross (R-84th) “We have made tremendous efforts this year in Illinois to reduce our state-run healthcare program, because we could no longer afford to provide the services that were once promised. Today’s Supreme Court decision affirms a federal law that has the potential to pile billions of dollars of additional expenses into our state budget

State Rep. Larry Walsh Jr. (D-86th) “For the most part I’m pleased with it. I think that the affordable care act is a step in the right direction. I commend the court, especially Chief Justice John Roberts for making that deciding vote to uphold the mandate because it wouldn’t have worked without it. Going forward, there do need to be adjustments, but that’s something that can be worked on going forward.” jsamples@buglenewspapers.com

Biggert, who was honored by the SSIP for her work in passing legislation that protects battered woman. She encouraged women to report their abusers without the fear of deportation if they came forward.

Irene King Elementary getting new drop-off area, playground

By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

A plan to replace an aging playground and repave the back lot of Irene King Elementary School has led to the creation of a new circular drop off and a partnership with the Lockport Township Park District.

Discussion to replace the 15-year-old playground has been in the works for the past few years,” said Irene King Principal April Vacik. It was the combination of timing and available funds that are now affording the school an opportunity to completely overhaul the back lot of the school, both redirecting traffic for a safer flow and giving the children a playground the children deserve, explained Vacik.

Having earmarked funds for maintenance projects, the district will replace the asphalt surface a the the back of the school where the parking lot was used for buses. Since there was a need to replace the asphalt, Vacik and district officials, felt the opportunity was right to improve the area and found they could do so at no extra cost.

Currently, parents pick up and drop off students at the front of the school and bus riders use the back entrance.The redesign of the back lot will include a large parent drop off zone, with curbing and sidewalk to

Vacik and school officials are working on a plan to ensure an effective flow for drop off and pick off, researching how area schools use similar circle-style drop offs.

In addition, about half of the current black top will become a grassy area. The district plans to seed the area in the fall.

Vacik said there are hopes to use school fundraisers to buy equipment such as soccer nets to use in that area, as well as for some landscaping within the new drop off area. Future plans call for a rain/reading garden.

The school was allowed to pick the colors for the play structures—red and gold, the school’s colors.

Stormy aftermath Photos by Laura Katauskas/Bugle Staff

Wind gusts of 87 mph during Friday night's storm created havoc for Romeoville residents. Downed trees lined the streets and more than 1,800 people were left without power. The Speedy family narrowly escaped having a huge evergreen from their front lawn hit their home and landing inches from their car. Public works crews were out helping residents remove tree limbs. The village is asking residents to leave any fallen branches at the curb and a chipper service will come by to remove it.

Theater on the Hill performing ‘Back to the 80’s’ Big hair and Bon Jovi---ahh, the 80s.Totally awesome, dude.A new musical look at the era is being performed by Bolingbrook’s very own Theater on the Hill production company, who has been bringing theater to the area for nearly 10 years.

Steeped in the culture, fashion, dance and music of the times, the Theater on the Hill group says this seldom performed gem of a tribute, titled “Back to the 80’s,” features two hours of back-to-back hits from artists such as The B-52’s, Wham!, The J.Geils Band, Jefferson Starship, Devo, Kenny Loggins, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Bon Jovi, Rush, Cyndi Lauper, Rick Astley, The Who, Survivor and many more.

The musical journeys back to the year 1989 through the eyes of thirty-something Corey Palmer (Scott Bovaird), as he recalls his senior year at William Ocean High.

Prominently featured in his reminiscence are Tiffany (Kristina Parro), his first love; Michael Feldman (Victor Rachal), quarterback and his arch rival; his best friends Kirk

and Alf (Troy Schaeflein and Jon Slowik, respectively); the boy-crazy, Madonna fashionista Cyndi (Alyssa Emelio); Feargal (Kevin Nepomuceno), supernerd; teachers (Scott Boland and Guinevere McGahan) and of course Corey (Caleb Hand) his younger self on the cusp of manhood. As performed by a large and exceptionally talented cast, the tales from this bygone era are at times funny, at times bittersweet but always highly entertaining, reads the program’s description.

The creative team of last year’s hit THE MUSIC MAN, choreograper KB Bowman, vocal director Sharon Hand and producer/director Michael Fudala, return to bring their unique vision to this exciting production.

Appropriate for all ages, performances run from June 29 to July 15, 8:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and 7:30 p.m. on Sundays at the Bolingbrook Performing Arts Center behind Village Center 375 West Briarcliff, Bolingbrook. Tickets are $15 for

adults, and $12 for students and seniors. Group rates are available.

Further information is available at http://www.tothbolingbrook. com or by calling 630-908-2538.

Theatre-on-the-Hill was established to be a completely unique playground for performers and to provide theater for the community. The company was officially reborn in the fall of 2004 under the leadership of Craig J. Engel with its production of “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” and has continued to strive to produce highly-acclaimed shows ever since.

The company produces three or four shows per year, with summer shows held outdoors.

The fall and spring shows are held indoors when the stage at the Bolingbrook Performing Arts stage is converted to accommodate an audience.

Open auditions are held for every performance, drawing aspiring actors and volunteers for production from around the area.

Since the Theatre-on-the-Hill’s

inception it has performed shows ranging from “Misery,” “City of Angels” to the “Wizard of Oz” and “Annie.”

Follow your dream.

You are friendly toward everybody; you might find that tweeting suits your style.

In the week to come, however, you could be too aggressive about taking the lead in groups.

Bad judgment jams up your jolliest times. When you’re afraid to do something in the week ahead, chances are it’s exactly the thing you should be doing.

Impulsive purchases and passions are possible.

You can talk the talk and walk the walk. In the week ahead, your cup seems to runneth over with romance and passion. Problems arise, however, when you feel you can’t get enough and try too hard.

This week’s full moon might fool you. In the upcoming week, when you think you have licked your wounds and gotten over it, something reminds you of conflict.

You shine in group activities during the week ahead, but might find that one-onone situations are challenging on an emotional level.

It might be stormy now, but it can’t rain forever

Brilliant is as brilliant does. In the first half of the week, you seem to want things more - and easily use your resourceful mind to get them. In the second half of the week, however, you yield to impulse buying.

Grab the rabbit’s foot and hold on tight. There are days that you must say to yourself, “If there weren’t bad luck, you wouldn’t have any luck at all.” In the week ahead, remember to accept sound advice.

It isn’t always about business as usual. Just because your peer group does things one way doesn’t mean that it is always the only right way. In the week ahead, be sure to use inspired logic as your guide.

Those who laugh last probably didn’t get the joke. Dealing with people from a sedate or conservative background could present challenges in the week ahead. Keep in mind that not everyone is sincere.

An ounce of forgiveness is worth more than a pound of revenge.

Being sincere is perfectly acceptable, even in business situations. During the week to come, you attract romantic partners.

Contrasts are contrary.

You may walk a balance beam between honoring the old and embracing the new in the week ahead. You could want champagne on a beer budget, so restrain your impulses.

Sex appeal is 50 percent what you’ve got and 50 percent what people think you’ve got. In the week ahead, you begin attracting the right people - but by the end of the week the reverse could be true.

www.romeovillebugle.com

By Mark Gregory Sports Reporter

Over the years, Joliet Catholic has had its share of big time pitchers,namely Mark Grant,Bill Gullickson and Kevin Cameron who all pitched successfully in the Major Leagues.

None of them, however, posted the high school season that Kevin Duchene had this year for the Hillmen.

The lefty was 8-0 on the season with a 0.13 ERA in 52 innings pitched. He allowed only 22 hits, struck out 96 batters and waled only 10.

He was named as East Suburban Catholic Conference MVP and is also the 2012 Voyager Media Player of the Year.

“If we did it 100 times over, it would never happen again,” Duchene said of his season. “It was a fun season even though it didn’t end how we wanted (JCA lost in the sectional final to Lincoln-Way West), anytime you can get 29 wins it is a great season. I didn’t feel pressure, because at the time, I just didn’t. It is really cool that it happened, but I wasn’t focusing on that. The thing I am upset I didn’t get to was the 100 strikeouts before 10 walks.

That was something I wanted to do.”

Duchene allowed only one earned run the entire season,

THE BUGLE JULY 5, 2012 placing him tied for fourth all time in IHSA history for lowest ERA in a season with Tom Evans of Brother Rice in 1968.

In fact, of all the pitchers above Duchene, only one pitcher (Wheaton Warrenville South’s Dan Brauer in 2001) accomplished the feat in the last 25 years.

“It is kind of cool to know if the IHSA record books are accurate online, I am (tied for the fourth) lowest ERA ever,” Duchene said. “It is cool because guys like Kai Freeman and a lot of other JCA pitchers are in those record books, so it is cool to have my name in there with them.”

Freeman posted a 0.34 ERA in 1995 and was the lowest ERA in the Joliet area, along with Lockport’s Anthony Shelby (1992, 0.37).

Both were 12th round draft picks on major league teams out of college, Freeman coming from the University of Minnesota, where he won the Big 10 Tournament in 1998.

Duchene looks to follow Freeman,as he will also compete in the Big 10, committing to the University of Illinois.

He said he visited Purdue and Illinois and had four more schools he cancelled on after coming back from Champaign.

“I had four trips after Illinois See ALL-AREA, page 14

THE BUGLE JULY 5, 2012

ALL-AREA Continued from page 13 and I had to call coaches and tell them Illinois was the place for me,” Duchene said. “They have just brought in a new pitching coach, Drew Dickinson. He is a guy I would like to surround myself with for the next four years.”

Dickinson was Big Ten Conference pitcher of the year in 2001 with the Illini.

Duchene feels he can learn a lot at Illinois and while he wants to work on his velocity, he knows he is a pitcher that is successful with a good defense behind him, something he had at JCA. “I really only do 50 percent of the work,” he said. “Once the ball leaves my hand there is not much I can do about it. With the infield I had, some of those guys, I never saw them miss a ball that was hit to them.”

Duchene also knows he benefitted from the new bat rule the IHSA had this season, taking some of the fluke hits out of play.

“With the old bats, you could make good pitches and the bats had enough pop to get the ball out between the second baseman and right fielder or something,” he said. “The BBCOR bats and more true, like a wooden bat, and the only real way to get beat is to leave something over the plate that they could get the good part of the bat on.”

No matter what played to his favor, it was Duchene’s had work that kept him getting better each season.

“In my opinion Kevin was the No. 1 pitcher in the state,” JCA coach Jared Voss said. “Only one earned run all season is pretty amazing. Kevin will continue his baseball career at U of I next season. Kevin improved every

season in the program and a lot of that is because the work he put in the offseason and on his own. His baseball future is very bright at the next level.”

While he is waiting to compete for the Illini, Duchene is playing for the Illinois Sparks, where two weeks ago, he faced beat Louisville’s Kyle Funkouser 3-2. The match-up is what many fans anticipated in the sectional finals, but like JCA, Funkhouser’s Oak Park team was also upset in the opener.

“He is unbelievable,” Duchene said.“I know a lot of people were talking about how that match-up would have been and it would have been fun, but it would have been cooler if we didn’t like each other and it was a rivalry, but he is like one of my best friends.”

While Duchene didn’t have a chance to face his friend in the IHSA playoffs, he did throw an inning of scoreless relief in his final game, but he said he wasn’t too emotional about that inning.”

“I know I have a lot of baseball left and that wasn’t my final inning,” he said. “When I throw my last game, I wont be able to do an interview because I am going to be so upset. I love this game so much and as a long as I can play it, I am going to.”

The rest of the Voyager Media All Area team are:

PATRICK ALOISIO Aloisio, whom Maine South

Sports coach Bill Milano refers to as a “Greg Maddux at the high school level,” wasn’t overpowering, but he could throw five pitches for strikes and consistently got ahead of opposing hitters in the count.

Aloisio posted a 10-1 record, a 1.58 ERA and a 0.97 WHIP. He’ll be pitching at nearby Oakton Community College next spring.

“He’ll do fine,” Milano said.

“He throws strikes and he mixes it up.”

DEREK BANGERT J u n i o r catcher batted .491 with 14 doubles, for Lockport.

He added five homers and 25 RBI and was one of the top hitters in the area.

TIM BLAKE Senior from Plainfield Central went 5-2 with a 1.99 ERA on the year.

“Tim Blake had not started a game until

this year and became the Wildcats best pitcher,” Central coach John Rosner said. “He had an ERA of under two in 11 starts.

JULIAN CLOUSE Senior righty from Plainfield South went 7-3 with a 1.41 ERA. C l o u s e finished the season with 64.2 innings pitched.

KYLE COLLETTA Colletta, on the varsity since his freshman year, committed only four errors in 93 total chances at second base during the season (.959 fielding percentage) while hitting .290 for Niles West.

CHARLIE DONOVAN The sky seems to be the limit for the Westmont freshman, whom first-year coach D.J. Cocks says is already a Division I prospect. Donovan, the

“He’s legit,” Cocks said.

“Everyone that sees him just drools over him. I’ve been coaching for nine seasons now, and I haven’t seen a freshman that good.”

CORY EVANS Maine East went 1225 during the 2012 campaign, but it’s safe to say Evans, a fouryear varsity player, played a role in each of those triumphs, whether at shortstop or on the bump. Evans recorded six wins, had a 3.55 ERA and pitched nine complete games. Hitting-

wise, he batted .396 with a .479 OBP and 14 stolen bases.

“He’s really ignited us offensively,” said Maine East coach Ron Clark. “Anytime he was on the mound he gave us a chance. He pitched through a lot of stuff. He’s a very mentally tough kid, and always focused on the task at hand.”

He had 72 strikeouts and just seven walks with a 1.20 ERA in 57 innings.

He was voted as team MVP. “I still don’t think he is a dominant pitcher,” Downers South coach Darren Orel said.

“But he dominates by being a pitcher. His fastball is only in the upper 80s, low 90s, so he is not going to just blow it by you. He tries to pitch to contact and he has more sink See ALL-AREA, page 17

Mercer, Wisconsin is a Northwoods Treasure

By Dan Stefanich

There’s something special about Northwoods. The heavy scent of pine in the air. Bald eagles everywhere. The wailing call of the loons. It’s been a while since I had the opportunity to fish up North. But a recent trip to Mercer, Wisconsin brought back a flood of memories, and a chance to create new ones.

Located at the northernmost part of Wisconsin, Mercer is just miles from the Michigan border, or about 5 hours from Chicago.

I was filming an episode of Illinois Outdoors TV with my buddy Don Dziedzina, so we had to squeeze a lot into 3 short days. As we pulled into town, we were greeted by a giant loon sculpture, fitting for the Loon Capital of the World.

Over three days we fished several lakes. But the largest body of water was the famed Turtle-Flambeau Flowage. There was plenty of rock structure typical of the northern lakes, but this body of water was loaded with lots of downed timber, which provides great hiding places for the fish. Our method of fishing was working small jigs tipped with a half a night crawler through the logs and timber. Using this technique, we caught a variety of fish including smallmouth bass, walleye, rock bass and bluegills. Of course there’s a price to pay when fishing underwater timber- as I donated plenty of jigs to the Flowage. “If you’re not getting snags, you’re not where the fish are,” explained Jerry Hartigan of Jerkbait Guides Services. We boated some giant smallmouth

in the 4-plus pound range. I was intrigued by how dark their colors were, almost black, due to the tannin in the water from the trees. Our timing was not ideal as we arrived just after the mayfly hatch, so the fish had been gorging themselves on the mayfly larvae hatching from the lake bottoms. The temperature was in the upper 80’s, which also slowed the bite. Despite the challenging conditions we still caught fish thanks to the help of some of the best guides in Northern Wisconsin including Hartigan, Mike “Doc” Sabec, John Andrew, Jeff Robl, and Erv Keller. The walleye had lockjaw as well, but we still caught our limit and brought some home for the frying pan.

Now I have never fished for muskies before, but know it requires a LOT of casting with giant lures, and that catching a musky is kind of like winning the lottery. Well, our guide Bobby Orr made it looks easy.

In just 3 hours, we had one musky in the boat, 2 hooked up and about 5 more that followed our lures to the boat. I had a 40-incher hooked up…for about ten seconds. After grabbing my spinnerbait, he exploded out of the water about 15 feet from the boat, shaking his tooth-filled head, then in a giant “woosh” he cut the line and waved goodbye.

Now I know why musky fishing can be so addicting— what a rush!

Catching fish in the Northwoods makes you hungry, and the locals went above and beyond to make sure we had our fill. We enjoyed a lakeside campfire breakfast at the Pine

Mercer, WI is truly the Loon Capital of the World offering plenty of exciting opportunities for wildlife photographers, outdoor enthusiasts and or course, fishermen.

Mercer is also a great place for the entire family. Every facility we visited was family-friendly.

And the Wampum Shop is a must-visit for the kids, or if you need to bring gifts back for the rest of the family.The locals were some of the friendliest folks I’ve met, and they treated us like family. Mercer is also a winter hotspot with some outstanding

snowmobiles trails and ice fishing. If you are interested in setting up a trip, contact the Mercer Chamber of Commerce at www.mercercc.com. For more photos and resources for this fantastic destination, visit DanStefOutdoors.com.

Going local: It’s easier than you think I’m not naturally a wild-andcrazy kind of guy. But when I’m shy and quiet, things don’t happen, and that’s a bad rut to travel in. The meek may inherit the earth, but they won’t enjoy it.

When you’re traveling in Europe, make yourself an extrovert, even if you’re not.

Be a catalyst for adventure and excitement - and don’t be intimidated. Generally speaking, Europeans enjoy getting to know Americans - all it takes to connect is a friendly smile and genuine curiosity. Here are a few tricks I use to connect with the locals: Be open to encounters as you visit a city. At most major sights, you’ll meet more people in an hour than you would at home in a day. Cameras are good icebreakers; offer to take someone’s picture or ask a local to take a picture of you. If you are lonely and in need of human contact, take out a map and look lost. You’ll get help. Perceive friendliness and you’ll find it.

Take a class at a cooking school. These give you not just a taste of the culinary traditions of the area you’re visiting, but also a hands-on feel for what happens in European kitchens - along with a skill you can take home. Many include a trip to local markets. You can find oneday European cooking classes at the International Kitchen (www. theinternationalkitchen.com).

Across Europe, some large cities and even small towns (such as Germany’s Rothenburg) have informal English-language conversation clubs, usually meeting weekly or monthly in a public space (search online or ask at the tourist information office). You may well be the only native speaker there - if so, expect an especially warm welcome.

Several European cities have English-speaking volunteer greeters who belong to the Global Greeter Network (www. globalgreeternetwork.com).

Greeters are screened extensively, but aren’t trained as historical experts. Instead, they introduce visitors to their city by spending a few hours sharing their insider knowledge - their favorite hidden spots, how to navigate public transit, where to find the best bargains, etc.

A few bigger cities have more formal programs that put travelers in direct touch with locals. In

Dublin, the City of a Thousand We l c o m e s b r i n g s volunteers and firsttime visitors together for a cup of tea or a pint (free, www. c i t yo fa t h o u s a n d we l c o m e s . com). In Paris, the group Meeting the French organizes dinners in private homes and workplace tours to match your interests or career (fee, www. meetingthefrench.com). Visitors to Copenhagen can enjoy a home-cooked meal with a family through Dine with the Danes (fee, www.dinewiththedanes. dk). With Helsinki’s Meet the Finns program, you can match your hobbies with a local - and suddenly, you’re searching for Marimekko tea towels with your new Finnish friend (fee, www. cosyfinland.com).

If you’re a techie, try meeting up with locals through social media. Like-minded individuals can find one another on www. meetup.com, whose worldwide members welcome visitors to wide-ranging events such as photography walks, happy hours, and weekend skiing. Twigmore, a Facebook travel app (www. twigmore.com), connects vacationers and residents through mutual “friends” - just type in your destination, and Twigmore will tell you if a friend of one of your Facebook buddies lives in the city. CouchSurfing is known for its sleep-for-free network, but it also lists “day hosts” who are happy to just meet up with likeminded visitors and swap travel stories (www.couchsurfing. com). Also consider joining a hospitality-exchange network, such as Servas (www.servas.org).

And there’s the old-fashioned, face-to-face option of meeting people during their everyday routines. Take your laundry and a deck of cards to a launderette and turn solitaire into gin rummy.

You’ll end up with a stack of clean clothes and interesting conversations.

You’re always welcome at a church service; stay for the coffee hour. Or get caught up in a sporting event. Whether enjoying soccer in small-town Italy or hurling in Ireland, you’ll be surrounded by a stadium

crammed with devout fans.

Buying something to wear or wave with the hometown colors helps me remember whose side I’m on.

Play with kids. Thumb wrestle.

Learn how to say “pretty baby” in the native language. If you play peek-a-boo with a baby or fold an origami bird for a kid, you’ll make friends with the parents as well as the child. If you are shy about connecting with families, pal up to a pooch - you will often find they are happy to introduce you to their owners.

Connecting with people carbonates your travels. When I read over my past trip journals, I’m always impressed by how often the best experiences were meeting people; these are the kind of souvenirs you’ll enjoy for a lifetime.

Real Estate & Business

Body language can make or break a career Q. How do I understand nonverbal communication at work? I’ve read books on body language, but I am still pretty confused. Are there any easy guidelines to help interpret what body language means?

A. Western culture mostly associates the physical body with sex. When I teach nonverbal communication, people often squirm and giggle because bringing up the fact they have bodies makes them embarrassed.

However, the body is a powerful communication channel that is mostly ignored or barely noticed at work.

Even though studies find body language carries 55 percent of the meaning during communication.

Being able to understand body language is more complicated than getting a guide that says if your boss scratches his nose, he’s lying. Most body language is unique to the person using

it.

Pay attention to what your body and others’ bodies do when you’re in boring situations (e.g., meetings).

Experiment with imitating different postures or gestures you see people use. How do you feel when you pound your fist, drape your arms over the chair, or sit with legs and arms crossed.

Notice your feelings when you use assume positions and you’ll have better information about what’s going on for others.

Make sure you’re breathing deeply when you’re trying to notice nonverbal behavior. If you’re having an out-of-body experience rather than being in your body, it will be tough to observe anyone else’s.

If you see a coworker make a gesture repeatedly, try asking

them what it means when they look at their watch, tap their foot or lean away. After a while, you will get a working physical vocabulary of the people around you.

One critical aspect of body language is that it often reveals much more than people want to about their real agendas.

Moreover, people will even tell you information they themselves don’t fully grasp or want to admit. For instance, I had a client who pounded his fists whenever he talked about his boss. I asked him why he was so mad at his boss, and he looked surprised. He hadn’t thought about his fury until I pointed out his fists.

If you ever find a person’s nonverbal and verbal communication to be in conflict, always believe the body. Very few people can control their body language. What you hear when the body talks may even save your career one day!

The last word(s)

Q. I just got a new job and now have another offer double my current salary.

Would it be wrong to take the job?

A. No. Ask yourself if your company would consider it wrong to let you go if it were in their best interests? Then take the job.

Zoppe Italian Family Circus coming back to area

By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

Steeped in family tradition, the traveling Zoppe Italian Family Circus is back in town and ready to win the audience members over again.

“We are back in Bolingbrook because we love it here,” said Giovanni Zoppe. “We were very successful last year and we are happy to be in Bolingbrook.

We hope to make it an annual tradition for families in the area.”

The old-world fun and authentic circus will set up under the big tent from July 12 through July 15 at the Bolingbrook Park District’s Central Park location.

Tickets are being sold at the Park District for the shows now through the day of the show.

A show like no other will be offered to all, says Zoppe. Minus the clown car or a pie in the face, the Zoppe Family Circus promises to enthrall its crowd with an old-world Italian circus that tells a story.

It is all about family, says Zoppe who tells the tale of his ancestors.

Much like the love story of his great-great-great grandparents, Zoppe, also known as Nino the clown, explains the one ring circus is propelled by a central story (as opposed to individual acts) that feature acrobatic feats, equestrian showmanship, canine capers, clowning and plenty of audience participation.

Zoppè, the sixth-generation circus performer, says the show aims higher than what passes for circuses these days. He says his character is more subtle, wearing little make up. He is more a comedian than what many think of as a clown.

He says each storyline is different and new acts are introduced, including a trampoline act and a high-flying trapeze act unparalleled by any throughout the country. Zoppe explains some of their acts are deemed too dangerous for other troupes.

The Zoppe circus has a rich history dating back to the 1800s.

Along the way, according to the history of the show, Alberto Zoppè, a grand equestrian, inherited the circus almost 100 years later.Alberto toured Europe with the circus since his youth, forging many unique friendships along the way, including one with famed actor/director Orson

Welles and was later offered a job by John Ringling North of Ringling Brothers fame, who was putting together the circus acts for Cecil B. Demille’s Oscarwinning film, The Greatest Show on Earth. Alberto was hesitant to leave his family circus in Italy for America, but North was persistent and offered to loan the family circus an elephant for the show as long as Alberto worked for him. He obliged and was prominently featured in the film.

Alberto would remain in America, producing circuses for Ringling and starting his own family. Together with his wife Sandra, Alberto has ushered in a

new generation to continue the family tradition. Their children, Giovanni, Tosca and Carla, along with their spouses, have all been active at one time or another in the family business.

Giovanni revived the Zoppè Family Circus in America three years ago, and has since been building its reputation with audiences and critics as an enchanting exhibition of traditional European circus.

The circus came to Bolingbrook last summer and a partnership has been forged.

“We are so pleased to partner with the Bolingbrook Park District and they have given us a wonderful grounds to share our performance and it has been great working with them—we intend to keep the families coming in,” said Zoppe.

The circus is said to have something for everyone from toddlers and teens to parents and grandparents.

“It’s about family—and that’s what it is all about,” said Zoppe. katauskas@buglenewspapers.com
