National Weather Service declares Lewis University StormReady •

Voluntary preparedness program encourages communities to prepare for severe weather Lewis University has been named a StormReady community by the National Weather Service. This voluntary preparedness program encourages communities to prepare for severe weather. Through this StormReady program, Lewis University has demonstrated communication and safety skills needed to save lives and property; before, during and after an event. “StormReady communities are better prepared to save lives from the onslaught of severe weather through advanced planning, education and awareness,” Mike Bardou, warning coordination meteorologist NOAA/National Weather Service - Chicago/ Romeoville, said. LEWIS UNIVERSITY HAS SEVERAL POLICIES AND PRACTICES IN PLACE THAT EXHIBIT ITS PREPAREDNESS FOR EXTREME WEATHER AND WATER EVENTS: • The Lewis University Police Department provides a 24-hour warning point and emergency operations center for the Romeoville campus.

•

An emergency notification system alerts students, faculty and staff of severe weather warnings and forecasts. Nearly 50 students, faculty and staff are trained weather spotters on the Romeoville campus. Lewis University regularly hosts community seminars and shares information on severe weather. The Lewis University Campus Emergency Planning Team has developed a severe weather plan and holds exercises on a regular basis for the Romeoville campus.

“We cannot prevent severe weather, but we can be prepared for it. This StormReady designation formalizes our community’s commitment to preparedness,” Dr. David Livingston, president of Lewis University, commented. “This has been a communitywide commitment to preparedness for severe weather. Our community has worked together as a team to obtain certifications as weather spotters, continually develop plans as well as prepare facilities and personnel for severe weather,” Neil O’Connell, Lewis University transportation & emergency preparedness coordinator, added.

VALLEY VIEW SCHOOL DISTRICT 365U

Students, school to honor National Walkout Romeoville resident plans pro gun rally near RHS By Laura Katauskas Bugle Staff @BugleNewspapers sweditor@buglenewspapers.com

As students grapple with the events of the Parkland, Fla. school shooting, a call to action is resonating with students nationwide and throughout the community. In a show of solidarity, both Bolingbrook and Romeoville High Schools have been planning a means to support the right to have a safe school environment and are expected to have a walkout on March 14. In a letter to the community, Valley View Superintendent James Mitchem, said “We recognize that there are differing opinions on how to address issues related to school safety, hence the need to offer students the option to participate as well as respect their right to refrain from partici-

pation.” What is now being met with some controversy as spelled out over social media, a 2nd Amendment rally was also expected near Romeoville High School at the same time. Romeoville resident Savannah Denvir posted a Pro2nd event for 9:30 a.m. March 14 at 101 Troxel Ave, near the Heritage Falls Water Park. “My only intentions of this rally is to make sure our kids were told the truth,” said Denvir. “To be told who sponsored the national walk out which is the Woman’s March and be told about the Leftist Agenda of demands being asked for by this national walkout. I want these children to know it’s wonderful to remember the victims of the Parkland, Florida shooting, and to also know that the Left is using this tragedy to further their agenda with more gun control demands...” Both school and police officials maintain the right for anyone to state their beliefs. Romeoville Police and Fire Departments are

“We are hoping that providing this opportunity for our students to stand together, united as one, we will strengthen our relationships within “R” house and create a safe venue for our students and staff to advocate for school safety.” - ROMEOVILLE HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL DEREK KINDER

working with both groups to ensure safety and security for all who were to attend. “The Romeoville Police Department is working with RHS staff to ensure the safety of students and staff during this event,” said Romeoville Deputy Chief of Police Steve Lucchesi. “The Police Department has also communicated with the organizer of the 2nd Amendment demonstration, and expressed our desire for their safety as well. We respect the right of all persons who wish to peacefully exercise their first amendment rights, and we will be present to ensure a peaceful event.” Each high school has a plan in place to accommodate students who would like to participate in the 17-minute event, while at the

same time, providing a safe and secure environment. Students were to be allowed to exit the building to go to a designated location on campus, but will not be allowed to leave the school property. In a message from Romeoville High School Principal Derek Kinder, the walkout is about honoring the 17 lives lost. RHS has planned a student and staff activity that will allow us to show our support in a safe, peaceful, and respectful manner to honor the 17 victims and show a sign of unity and advocacy for school safety.” Students will be standing on the athletic field for an aerial photograph while students and staff spell out RHS United. Students that do not wish to participate

will report to the auditorium. Denvir said the demonstration is about providing “more security for our children more programs for bullying and teaching them to be kinder and more understanding to one another...I support these kids no matter what and just want them to be educated on the 2nd Amendment and not feel pressured from any school or peer to have their own belief or be made to do something they don’t want by feeling compelled to join either way or be self conscious in school about their choice to not walk out if that was the case. Just wanted to show those kids we are out there standing for them they, are not alone and it’s OK to love your country, Constitution and 2nd as well as mourn the victims of Parkland.” Kinder said in his message: “We are hoping that providing this opportunity for our students to stand together, united as one, we will strengthen our relationships within “R” house and create a safe venue for our students and staff to advocate for school safety.”

STEP students seek pledges to end use of “The R-Word”

Student Superintendents for a day

Valley View’s STEP students visited the Administration Center to ask staff to join them in taking a pledge for “Spread the Word to End the Word”. Spread the Word to End the Word is an ongoing effort by our STEP students, Special Olympics, Best Buddies, and other supporters to inspire respect and acceptance in the world. The pledge simply commits people to stop the use of one of the most disrespectful and hurtful words in the English language- retard. Those taking the pledge were asked to sign a banner and given a sticker as signs of their commitment. You can take the pledge by visiting www.r-word.org.

Skoff Elementary students Dominic and Addison Rizzatto received a close up look at a day in the life of a school superintendent as they spent a day visiting Valley View Schools with Superintendent Dr. James Mitchem. Dom and Addy were Student Superintendents for a Day as part of their mother’s winning bid on the prize at the Heart Haven Outreach (H2O) Fundraising event last summer. Skoff Principal Dr. Cheryl Lockard took Dr. Mitchem to meet Dom and Addy in their classrooms and after being given their superintendent credentials, Dr. Mitchem took his temporary colleagues to Lukancic Middle School for a clap-out for state championship bound wrestlers. The next part of the trip was supposed to be a visit to Romeoville HS, but Dom and Addy asked for, and were

granted a special stop before going to RHS. While Dom and Addy currently attend Skoff, they moved to a new house recently and until Winter Break, they attended R.C. Hill. They asked Dr. Mitchem if they could stop by R.C. Hill and visit their former classmates.

Brooks 8th Graders “Clap-In” Many of us are familiar with the tradition of “Clap-Outs” in Valley View Schools. This tradition mainly takes place at the end of the school year as the seniors, 8th graders, and 5th graders leave their schools for the next level. At the Brooks Middle School Step-Up Day for 5th graders who will be Bulldogs next August, the current Brooks 8th graders greeted 5th graders from Pioneer Elementary School. After the 5th graders were welcomed to Brooks, other 8th graders served as tour guides.

GUEST COLUMN

Political figures from Illinois: Recipients of Nobel Prize for Peace, leaders during wartime BY KERRY LESTER, THE DAILY HERALD The Gettysburg Address. Hull House. The nation’s first African American president — and first lady. All of these are due to Illinois’ bumper crop of political figures and politicians, who represent a diverse range of viewpoints and contributions throughout history. Here, in alphabetical order, are some of the leaders who came from our state: JANE ADDAMS A social worker and a leader in the women’s suffrage movement, Addams was the first American woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. She ran Hull House, a settlement house for poor immigrants in Chicago, and co-founded the American Civil Liberties Union. She also chaired a women’s conference for peace in the Netherlands in 1919 and worked unsuccessfully to get the United States to serve as a mediator between warring countries in World War I. She died in 1935 in Chicago. I-90 in Illinois is named after her. HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON Clinton’s 2016 Democratic nomination for president culminated a lifetime of public service, including terms as U.S. secretary of state, U.S. senator and first lady, a job where she chaired a task force that devised a plan to provide universal health care for Americans. Raised in Park Ridge, she moved to Arkansas in 1975 and married Bill Clinton, who became the 42nd U.S. president. Her first run for president was in 2008, when she lost the nomination to fellow Illinoisan Barack Obama. RICHARD J. DALEY Born into a working-class Irish family in Chicago’s Bridgeport neighborhood, Daley worked in the Union Stockyards to pay for law school. He was elected to the Illinois House of Representatives, then became Chicago’s 38th mayor with a 21-year tenure that ended with his death in 1976. Daley delivered key Democratic votes from Cook County in the 1960 presidential election of John F. Kennedy. He received national attention, and criticism, for authorizing the use of police force during the 1968 Democratic

convention in Chicago. His son, Richard M. Daley, followed him as Chicago mayor from 1989 to 2011. EVERETT DIRKSEN A native of Pekin, Dirksen helped steer the U.S. through the turbulent 1960s. As U.S. Senate minority leader, the Republican held a crucial role in passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Civil Rights Act of 1968. A World War I Army veteran, he was one of the Senate’s strongest supporters of the U.S. role in Vietnam. He died while in office in 1969 and is buried in Pekin. Did Dirksen say, “A million here, a million there, pretty soon, you’re talking real money”? No written or recorded record has been found, reports The Dirksen Center in Pekin. While a few people emphatically recall him uttering the famous words, at least one remembers the senator denying it. STEPHEN DOUGLAS A rising figure in Illinois’ early years, Douglas served in the Illinois House of Representatives and as Illinois secretary of state and Illinois Supreme Court associate justice, all by age 27. A few years later he was elected to the U.S. House, then the Senate and became one of the Democrats’ leaders. The chief nemesis and sparring partner of Abraham Lincoln during the Lincoln-Douglas debates of 1858, Douglas was nicknamed “the little giant” because of his diminutive stature and political forcefulness. Douglas (along with Lincoln) championed the Illinois Central Railroad, now part of the Canadian National Railway. He designed the Kansas-Nebraska Act, which brought the question of slavery into the national spotlight by allowing slaves in U.S. territories. He died of typhoid fever at age 48 in 1861 and is buried on Chicago’s South Side. BETTY FORD Born Elizabeth Ann Bloomer in 1918 in Chicago, she moved with her family to Michigan before traveling at 18 to study dance in Vermont and New York. She married and divorced, then married Gerald Ford as he was campaigning for the U.S. House of Representatives. He later became the 38th president of the United States. As first lady, Betty was

known for her frank and outspoken nature and irked some conservatives because of her support of socially liberal causes, including the Equal Rights Amendment and abortion access. Five years after leaving the White House, she founded the Betty Ford Center after recovering from alcohol and painkiller addiction. She died in 2011 at age 93; her husband died 74 days later. ULYSSES S. GRANT Born in Ohio, Grant served in the Mexican-American War and moved at age 38 with his wife to Galena to join the family leather goods business. The Civil War began a year later and Grant led a regiment south. Eventually promoted to commanding general and reporting directly to President Abraham Lincoln, he helped lead the Union Army to victory over the Confederacy. As the 18th president from 1869 to 1877, he oversaw Reconstruction. He kept a home in Galena. He died in 1885 and is, with his wife Julia, buried in Grant’s Tomb at the General Grant National Memorial in New York. JESSE JACKSON Jackson lived under Jim Crow laws during his youth in South Carolina, but later participated in the 1965 Selma to Montgomery marches for civil rights and went to work for Martin Luther King Jr., which led Jackson to Chicago to establish an office of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. He attended the Chicago Theological Seminary and was ordained, then later received a master of divinity degree. Jackson was at the Memphis hotel when King was assassinated. As one of the most influential civil rights leaders in the nation, he founded Operation PUSH and organized the National Rainbow Coalition, now merged as Rainbow/PUSH. Jackson ran for the Democratic nomination for president in 1984 and 1988 and later assumed a role in negotiating internationally for release of U.S. hostages and prisoners abroad. President Bill Clinton awarded Jackson the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2000.

Company goes solar

Magid Glove announce they will be going solar

Magid Glove & Safety Manufacturing Company is pleased to announce that they will be going solar. Magid has spent the better part of three years researching how a solar array on their facility could help drive down operating expenses while at the same time provide a strong financial return with the added benefit of being socially and environmentally proactive. Magid recently signed a contract to install a 3.5 Megawatt Solar array on the roof of their Romeoville facility. The array consists of over 10,500 solar panels that will produce enough electricity to offset 100 percent of their annual load. When completed, the system will

be the largest rooftop solar project not only in the state, but in the entire Midwest, further solidifying Magid’s position as an innovative, forward thinking company. “When companies around the Midwest look toward large scale solar power, they’ll be turning their eyes toward Romeoville,” began Romeoville Mayor John Noak. “Magid continues to champion innovation. That investment doesn’t just benefit their company, but the environment as well. It’s great to have leaders like this in the community and I hope more companies look to them and follow suit.” The strong financial returns were made possible by the recent legislation passed by the State of Illinois that requires the state’s utilities to either produce, acquire electricity from renewable sources, or buy the green attributes or Renewable Energy Credits from companies like Magid who invests in solar energy for their facilities and by rebates from Commonwealth Edison. Ad-

ditionally, the federal government supports the installation of solar by providing an Investment Tax Credit (ITC) for any entity, including residential, installing solar on their property. In the coming weeks, folks from Convergence Energy, the project developer, and Continental Electric, Magid’s engineering and installation partner, will be on site beginning their work. As a matter of fact, the first of 13 truckloads of solar panels arrived in the beginning of February. The array that Magid is installing on the roof and not using electric from Com Ed is the equivalent of reducing over 2 million tons/year of CO2 from being emitted from power plants and over 1,600 tons/ year of NOx and over 2,600 tons/ year of SO2. The CO2 reductions alone is the same as what over 2.2 million acres of forest could reduce in the atmosphere in one year or the emission of over 400,000 cars driven in one year.

Raiders fall in sectional title game after posting another great season

BY MARK GREGORY Sports Editor @Hear_The_Beard mark@buglenewspapers.com

While the season may have come to an end with an 8267 loss to West Aurora, the season was not a loss for the Bolingbrook basketball team. The Raiders finished the season in the sectional final game for the third time in four seasons, finished with a 20-plus win season again. “That is the best team we played all year,” Bolingbrook coach Rob Brost said about West Aurora. “I haven’t seen a better team than that. They make you pay.” The Blackhawks got off to a fast start and while the Raiders were able to cut the lead to three with just shy of three minutes left in the game, however, West Aurora converted down the stretch and increased the lead. “They won 17 games in a row

and they just beat what I think is one of the better teams in the state – my own. I know I am biased but I think we have a pretty good team,” Brost said. “I am proud of them. We are one of the best programs in the state for a reason and that is because we have good kids. They do as they are told - they are good players but better people.” Brost said while he knows the Raiders are talented, he is happier with who they are. “I told them at the end of this game what I tell then after every game we win – the scoreboard doesn’t matter,” Brost said. “It is what type of human being you are that really matters. They get tired of hearing it, but I tell them every game.” Bolingbrook got to the finals of the IHSA Class 4A Romeoville Sectional after a thrilling, 94-91, double-overtime Joliet Central a PHOTO BY MARK GREGORY

Local weightlifter headed to S. Africa BY MARK GREGORY Sports Editor @Hear_The_Beard mark@buglenewspapers.com

For most men, the height of their athletic prowess comes in their late teens to mid 20s. A running back is old at 25, a baseball player is looking at retirement by 35 and even a golfer is way down the money list by 40. Plainfield resident Kevin Farley, however, is not most men. Farley has been competing as a powerlifter since 1987, but his career really amped up after his 40th birthday. “I specialize in the bench press because I am just better at it than most people,” Farley said. “ I have been competing for 31 years and I am pretty well known in the powerlifting circles as a coach. I have coached the international teams in the open and masters bench press championships about a dozen times. I started doing that before I was 40 because I won some national

titles, but I wasn’t good enough to lift at the World Championships when I was in my 20s and 30s in the International Powerlifting Federation. When I turned 40 a lot of people started to retire. I am as strong right now as I was 10 years ago - the rest of my competition is not.” Farley, 51, will represent the United States at the International Powerlifting Federation World Bench Press Championships in South Africa April 23-29. His qualifying lift at the USAPL National Championships in September 491 pounds. “When I started, I lifted in the 181-pound class and now I lift in the 231-pound class,” he said. “When I was 181 pounds, my best lift was about 365 pounds, when I was 39, I did 540 pounds and that is the most I have ever done in a judged contest. In 2017, I broke the Illinois state record with a 507-pound lift.” Farley competes in a class

known as equipped lifting, where he competes with a bench press shirt. “I compete in the class using a bench press shirt, which is essentially a tight shirt that gives you performance enhancement. I would compare it to the bikes that the riders used in the Tour de France 20 years ago were heavier than today, or the pole that a pole vaulter uses today is better than it was. “So, this is a performance enhancing garment and it’s called equipped lifting and that is part of my training.” That is the only enhancements Farley is allowed as he said the IPF uses the same drug testing as the Olympics and are extremely strict on the use of any PEDs. Being drug free is not the only rule in competition. Farley explained that in competition, the bench press is different than the SEE FARLEY PAGE 9

In a competition, you have to take the bar out of the rack and hold it at arm’s length until you get a start signal and your feet have to be flat on the floor, your rear end and head have to be touching the bench and your arms have to be locked and they check that before they tell you to start,” Farley said. “Then you have to being the bar to your chest and pause it until you get a press signal. Then you have to press it to arm’s length and hold it until you get a rack signal. While you press it, you can’t lift anything off the bench and you can’t lift one arm faster than the other.” When Farley heads to South Africa, he will not only compete, but have a chance to catch up with friends from all over the globe. “When I was coaching we went to seven or eight different countries and I competed in Germany in 2007 and New Zealand in 2009,” he said. “So, I have traveled all over the world in power-

Student loan is still debt; pay it

That means living on a strict, basics-only monthly budget. After that, start throwing every nickel and dime you can scrape together and save toward those student loans as fast as possible. Your income is your largest wealth-building tool, Julie. You can’t save, and plan for the future, when all your money is flying out the door to pay back debt! —DAVE

DEAR DAVE, I have $100,000 in student loan debt. Since the amount is so large, is there a special place in your Baby Steps plan for it? JULIE DEAR JULIE, The fact that it’s a large amount of student loan debt doesn’t change anything. Baby Step 2 is where you pay off all debt except for your home. I hope you have a nice, large income with which to fight that

big, nasty pile of student loan debt. Believe it or not, I’ve seen even worse situations. I’ve talked to people who went $200,000 into debt for a four-year degree in a field where they’ll make $50,000. That kind of thinking and behavior is ridiculous, but it’s out there. Whatever you do, don’t let this student loan debt hang around for years and years. You’ve got to get focused and intense about getting control of your money.
