Are you sleep deprived? Here’s what you can do about it Continued from page 1 Family Features - Despite a desire for perfect sleep, Americans are not even close to getting the recommended eight hours a night, and 1 in 4 Americans believes the sleep they are getting isn’t the quality rest they want and need.

“To put sleep deprivation into perspective, 37% of Americans report they have fallen asleep behind the wheel,” said Dr. Sujay Kansagra, a sleep health expert for Mattress Firm.

“About 5% report falling asleep while driving on a monthly basis. Clearly, sleep deprivation is wide-spread and a risk factor for overall well-being.”

With chronic sleep deprivation, the brain’s ability to maintain attention and focus continues to decline over time. In addition to impairing mental function, lack of sleep has been associated with a host of risks to overall health.

Prevent sleep deprivation and take charge of your mental and physical health with these tips from Kansagra:

Nap responsibly. When you’re feeling tired, it’s no surprise the best solution may be sleep.

Some research suggests a quick power nap can actually give you a stronger boost than caffeine. However, too much rest during the day can throw off your nighttime sleep pattern. Aim for no more than 20 minutes so you don’t wake up groggy, and time your nap for the mid-point of your wake cycle (halfway between when you wake up and go to sleep).

Limit screen time. If you turn to your phone to help wind down while you’re in bed, you’re not alone, but you may be doing more harm than good. According to a survey conducted by Mattress Firm on sleep habits, the average person scrolls on his or her phone while lying in bed for more than 12 minutes before shutting down for the night. What’s more, the light from the screen serves as a stimulant, as does the digital content you’re viewing. That means you’re making it physically harder to fall asleep than if you put down your devices at least 30 minutes before bed.

Stick to a sleep schedule. The average per-

son gets less than six hours of sleep per night, according to the survey – a far cry from the eight hours most experts recommend. One way to buck this trend is to make it a point to turn in and wake up at the same time every day so you synchronize your sleep time with your internal clock. While eight hours is the standard, you may need to adjust up or down to find the amount sleep that lets you wake feeling rested.

Develop a pre-bedtime routine. You can train your body to prepare for sleep by creating a pattern or a routine that eases you toward sleep.

“Even something as simple as putting on a sleep mask each night, reading in bed for 20 minutes or practicing the same shower routine at the same time every night signals to your brain it’s time to hit the hay,” Kansagra said. “Creating a bedtime routine that lasts 20-30 minutes and sticking to that routine can make all the difference in your energy, productivity and mood.”

Find the right sleep position. If you’re

looking for the secret to a good night’s sleep, comfort may be the key. According to the survey, those who sleep on their backs at night are most likely to report they slept “perfectly well.” The most common sleeping position, on your side, correlates with the worst sleep reports. It may take some trial and error to find the right position that keeps your spine aligned, allows you to breathe freely and evenly distributes your weight.

Top 5 Bedtime Rituals A consistent bedtime routine, including these common rituals disclosed by respondents in a Mattress Firm survey, can help ease your way toward better rest.

1. Reading (42%) 2. Watching TV (42%) 3. Taking vitamins (36%) 4. Taking a shower or bath (36%) 5. Drinking warm milk (36%) Find more tips for getting better sleep at dailydoze.com.

POLITISCOPE

Sanders exit opened door for Obama to endorse Biden – and offer up his rhetorical skills and platforms of their shared past.

“If I were running today,” Obama declared, “I would not run the same race or have the same platform as I did in 2008. The world is different.

There is too much unfinished business for us to look backwards.”

BY DAVID A. FRANK

The three endorsements Joe Biden needed most came within the space of 48 hours.

First, Bernie Sanders backed his former Democratic rival for president on April 13, effectively ending the Democratic primary.

The emergence of a consensus candidate appeared to liberate former president Barack Obama, who a day later reentered American politics proper, after dedicating three years to staying largely below the political radar.

In a 12-minute YouTube video, Obama declared he was “proud to endorse Joe Biden” adding, “I believe Joe has the qualities we need in a president.” Sen. Elizabeth Warren followed suit on April 15, pledging her own support to Biden.

The emergence of a consensus candidate – reportedly after Obama held a series of conversations with Sanders – allowed the former president to unshackle Biden from the expectation that he had to defend all things Obama. The former president also used the opportunity to unleash a frontal attack on President Trump’s competence. In so doing, Obama demonstrated his usual command of rhetoric, a topic I

have studied extensively as a scholar of political communication.

Obama had reportedly told friends and candidates that he wouldn’t endorse anyone until the voters had made their choice known.

Sanders’ backing of Biden made the former vice president the presumptive Democratic candidate for the 2020 election. Obama’s endorsement address built on Sanders’ celebration of Biden’s decency and competence. Biden, Obama observed, would provide the country with the leadership needed to manage the pandemic.

Obama then gave Biden his blessing to move away from the policies

Left a bit By freeing Biden from defending Obama-era policies, the former president may have laid the groundwork for aligning Sanders’ and Biden’s vision and policies.

In his endorsement, Obama observed that both men understood the need to “look to the future.”

Obama declared Biden’s policy platform “is the most progressive platform of any major party nominee in history.”

And Obama borrowed a catch phrase from Warren, saying the country needs “real structural change.”

By attacking the Trump administration’s record, Obama established a blueprint for the Biden campaign.

Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign personalized the election, targeting Donald Trump by name.

In his endorsement, Obama resisted the temptation to make Trump and his personality the focus. Trump is unnamed in www.citizennewspapergroup.com

the address – but his policies and competence get plenty of mention. Obama claimed that his successor’s tax cuts for the wealthy have worsened inequality.

He also took a swipe at what he characterizes as Trump’s unleashing of polluters and disregard for basic norms, the rule of law, facts and science.

In contrast, Obama said, Biden would restore the qualities of dignity and competence to the presidency. “I know he will surround himself with good people. Experts, scientists, military officials who actually know how to run the government and care about doing a good job running the government, and know how to work with our allies, and who will always put the American people’s interest about their own,” Obama said.

Speak freely The Trump campaign is well-funded and prepared for such attacks. Even with Obama’s help, unseating Trump will be difficult.

Trump is chronically underestimated as a speaker. He is strikingly effective in his favorite venue: the Trump rally. Even with Obama’s move to embrace the Democratic left in his endorsement address,

there is no guarantee that Sanders supporters will enthusiastically embrace Biden. And, in the main, Biden remains an uneven speaker – prone to verbal excess and lack of precision. Yet, Biden has, on occasion, demonstrated that he can effectively deliver a well-written speech. He did so in his South Carolina primary victory address, offering a compelling story of purpose and unity necessary for coalition politics. Biden’s life is marred with deep tragedy, which has given him the gift of empathy, a genuine quality that shines through.

Regardless, Biden does not possess Obama’s rhetorical skill and will need him on the campaign trail.

Obama’s history of rhetorical success is remarkable. His 2004 Democratic National Convention Address, 2008’s “More Perfect Union” speech and his 2015 Charleston gun eulogy address stand out as exceptional examples. The qualities that made these speeches remarkable are also present in his endorsement of Biden. He is now liberated to put his powers of rhetoric in service to the Biden campaign.

Mortgage Relief and COVID-19 Scams: What You Need to Know StatePoint - Unfortunately, during times of hardship, families are often targeted by fraud artists attempting to take advantage of those needing assistance.

The COVID-19 crisis is no exception, with many scammers pretending to extend a critical lifeline to struggling homeowners through so-called “foreclosure rescue fraud.”

According to Freddie Mac, this scheme involves bad actors offering false promises of being able to save your home from foreclosure. Common elements of this fraud include the following: • Requiring you to sign over the title to your home.

• Asking you to sign unfamiliar documents and/or share your personal information.

• Charging you rent to stay in your home and/or potentially promising that you can purchase your home back when your financial situation improves.

Another common fraud involves a third party guaranteeing you a loan modification with a reduced mortgage payment. Such scams may operate similarly as foreclosure rescue fraud, as fraudsters collect an upfront fee and promise to work with your loan servicer on your behalf.

So what can you do to protect yourself?

• Don’t disclose. Never provide your information via phone or internet until after you have verified the caller or company’s identity.

• Be suspicious. If someone has contacted you asking for personal or sensitive informa-

tion, do your homework to verify the validity of the request before providing any information. Contact your servicer (the company listed on your mortgage statement) and confirm that they called you asking for information.

www.citizennewspapergroup.com

• Spot imposters. Scammers across the globe can make any name or number appear on your caller ID or email. Protect yourself from spoofing by letting calls go to voicemail first. If a call is important, the caller will leave a message. If you do answer and it is a robocall, don’t press any numbers. Just hang up.

• Report fraud. Freddie Mac will never reach out to offer a refinancing opportunity or new loan over the phone. If you have been contacted by someone claiming to represent Freddie Mac, you can report it by visiting sf. freddiemac.com/working-with-us/fraud-prevention/feedback.

While there are fraudsters out there offering false promises, know that there is real assistance on offer during this crisis, too. Contact your loan servicer to discuss your options. If Freddie Mac owns your mortgage and you are a homeowner unable to make you mortgage payments due to a decline in income resulting from COVID-19, you can learn more about available mortgage relief options by visiting MyHome.FreddieMac.com.

Your family’s health is no doubt top-ofmind these days. However, it’s also important to remember that fraudsters are out in full-force, making your financial vigilance a crucial priority as well.

NEWS Secretary DeVos Proposes Rethinking Teacher Professional Development by Empowering Teachers to Customize, Personalize their Continued Learning U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos proposed a new funding priority recently that would allow teachers to rethink their professional development.

Under the proposal, through stipends or vouchers, teachers would be able to select and access professional development courses and opportunities that are relevant to their personal needs or career goals instead of having one-size-fits all programming

dictated to them by the state or local education agency. “I’ve spoken with hundreds of teachers across the country who love teaching yet share the same frustration: their professional development courses don’t meet their needs, and they don’t help them serve students,” said Secretary DeVos. “That’s why I believe we must treat teachers like the valued professionals they are and empower them to seek out

Exercise restores youthful properties to muscle stem cells of old mice A nightly jaunt on the exercise wheel enhances muscle-repair capabilities in old mice, according to a new study by researchers at the Stanford School of Medicine. Only older mice saw this benefit, which the researchers found is due to the rejuvenation of the animals’ muscle stem cells. “The effect in old animals is very significant,” said Thomas Rando, MD, PhD, professor of neurology and neurological sciences and director of Stanford’s Glenn Center for the Biology of Aging. “We found that regular exercise restores youthful-

the professional learning opportunities that support their goals and aspirations. If we can trust teachers with our children each day, we should trust them to select the right continuing education courses.”

The department is seeking feedback from the public about this Notice of Proposed Priorities, which is posted to the Federal Register. The comment period is open until May 13, 2020.

SEC Awards Over $27 Million to Whistleblower

ness to tissue repair. Their muscle stem cells start to look and behave like those of much younger animals.”

While no researchers have discovered a reliable fountain of youth, it’s well known that certain lifestyle adjustments can be beneficial.

“Exercise is known to reduce the risk of a wide variety of age-related problems, including cardiovascular disease, cancer and perhaps even Alzheimer’s disease,” Rando said. “There’s a lot of interest in understanding how exercise confers these health benefits,” he added.

The Securities and Exchange Commission recently announced an award of more than $27 million to a whistleblower who alerted the agency to misconduct occurring, in part, overseas. After providing the tip to the Commission, the whistleblower provided critical investigative leads that advanced the investigation and saved significant Commission resources.

“This award marks several milestones for the program,” said Jane Norberg, chief of the SEC’s Office of the Whistleblower. “This is the largest whistleblower award

announced by the Commission this year, and the sixth largest award overall since the inception of the program. This award also brings the total amount awarded to whistleblowers by the SEC over the $400 million mark.”

As set forth in the Dodd-Frank Act, the SEC protects the confidentiality of whistleblowers and does not disclose information that could reveal a whistleblower’s identity.

Slaughter Backs Measure to Prevent Price Gouging of Critical Medical Supplies In response to the state’s need for medical equipment to treat Coronavirus (COVID 19), state Rep. Justin Slaughter, D-Chicago, is supporting legislation that would help to ensure that Illinois’ hospitals have access to the medical equipment they need.

School Districts ramp up remote learning

BY TIA CAROL JONES

On Friday, April 17, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker announced that schools in the state would remain closed for the remainder of the school year because of COVID-19. On Friday, March 13, Pritzker announced that schools would close to on-site learning beginning on Tuesday, March 17, through Sunday, March 29.

This led to school districts implementing online learning for students.

On Tuesday, March 31, Pritzker announced the extension of the state’s stay-at-home order, as well as the closure of schools through Thursday, April 30.

Now that the schools have been closed for the remainder of the year, school districts are maneuvering to meet the needs of their students for the duration.

In Community Consolidated School District 168, in Sauk Village, Superintendent Dr. Donna Simpson-Leak and the staff have been meeting the students’ education, emotional and nutritional needs.

Part of that includes providing Chromebooks and devices for students who needed them to participate in online learning classes.

Leak said prior to the complete closure, students were already using remote capable learning programs, including Google hangouts and Google classroom. They also used Powered by Action, a platform that allowed for online meetings and for the collection of documents. The remote learning day is still structured like a school day.

“Our teachers log on at 8:30 every morning, then they have meetings with their students starting at 9 o’clock. So, from 9 until 12, they have lessons and the lessons are set. So, for K through five, it’s 70 minutes of math, 30 minutes of reading, social studies, science,” she said. “It’s a 9 to 12 [o’clock] block, then 12 to 12:30 is the lunch break for staff. Then 12:30 until 2 is another block for students, and then 2 to 2:30 is planning for teachers.”

Leak said the academic set up has been working. Also, the teachers and stu-

dents are doing socio-emotional components. The teachers are doing community circles in the morning, where students sign-on at 9 -9:30 a.m.

“It’s just a chance for the students to check in with their teachers,” she said.

“We’ve been doing lunch bunches. Our nurses have been checking in on our students, our social workers have been doing well checks virtually. Our special education aides and teachers have been doing one-to-one with students.”

The district provides breakfast and a hot lunch Monday through Friday, to students younger than 18 at 13 different distribution sites. It is something the district has been doing since Tuesday, March 17. They also have partnered with churches who provide food for families and students in the district.

The schools in the district have been

providing printed packets from students in kindergarten to second grade. Leak said parents found it easier for students in those grades to navigate.

The district also has given 500 devices to students in the district, which has 1400 students. Leak said there were families, with multiple children doing remote learning, so they needed additional devices.

Leak said while remote learning is great, nothing beats seeing the kids and interacting with them in person.

“I love our kids. People go into education because we love being around other people’s children. We love that sensation of the heartbeat of the kids getting off the bus at the beginning of the day,” she said.

“People who are educators are people people, they’re kid people. We want to be around children, and impacting their lives in a meaningful way.”

hospitals and health care workers have access to the vital supplies they need to treat patients infected with COVID-19 and to protect themselves from the virus.

“It’s paramount to our state’s public health that we do our part to ensure that all Illinoisans have access to hospitals that are well prepared to treat patients infected

with this virus and that our medical professionals are able to protect themselves while saving lives,” said Slaughter. “I wholeheartedly support this legislation and will continue to fight for health and safety of all Illinois residents.”

Congresswoman Kelly Hosts Eighth COVID-19 Response Call with Farmers and Agricultural Workers Congresswoman Robin Kelly hosted a telephone town hall discussion with farmers and agricultural workers from the 2nd Congressional District where participants discussed concerns related to the COVID19 crisis and their suggestions for further legislative relief efforts in Congress.

“It was important to get on-the-ground feedback from my farmers and agricultural workers,” Congresswoman Kelly said.

“They have unique and specific concerns, some of which may not have been fully Robin Kelly addressed in the latest relief package. I’m taking back their ideas to Washington and advocating for their inclusion in the next round of relief legislation.”

The 2nd Congressional District is home to 1,200 farms producing nearly $400 million worth of corn, soybean, wheat and livestock.

Some of the farmers on the call expressed concern that small business loans available through the latest relief package did not apply to their operations.

Congresswoman Kelly briefed them on key elements of the $2 trillion coronavirus package and updated them on expanded investments that benefit farm operations, small businesses, and rural infrastructure.

This call was the eighth in the Congresswoman’s COVID19 response series.
