Water and energy consumption

By Drs. Robert & Sonia Vogl PresidentandVicePresident,IllinoisRenewableEnergyAssociation The plumes of vented cooling water steaming from the two towers at the Byron Nuclear Generating Station in Byron, Illinois, can be seen for miles around. Seeing the plumes can serve to remind us of the close link between our energy consumption and water consumption.

The National Geographic website water use quiz reveals some additional facts about the link between energy and water consumption.

Our power plants account for about 40 percent of fresh water withdrawals from rivers, lakes and stream. Agricultural withdrawals are a close second, accounting for nearly the same amount.

Each gallon of gasoline refined from crude oil requires at least 2.8 gallons of water. Fracking (or hydraulic fracturing) for natural gas is also water consumptive, particularly at the local level.

According to estimates by the International Energy Agency, the amount of fresh water consumed for world energy production could double over the next 25 years. The two biggest sources of global water demand are increased production of coal-fired electricity and increased biofuel production. Increased recycling of water could reduce the consumption from these sources.

Increasing energy and water demands in a resource-constrained world, along with citizen expectations of a higher standard of living and growing numbers of people are just some of the challenges ahead of us.

Some citizens have demonstrated their interest in water quality along the Rock River by participating in the annual cleanup. This successful effort should go beyond cleaning up the debris to devising strategies to reduce its occurrence. The Rock River Trail Initiative deserves additional support

to address water quality issues in the watershed.

We can all benefit from more effective efforts at reducing water consumption. Our communities need more green roofs, rain gardens, rain barrels, permeable pavers, slightly sunken gardens, and tree street plantings to retain some storm water and allow it to soak into the ground. The water could be used for gardening, watering lawns, and washing off driveways and patios.

Retention ponds strategically placed around the city can help reduce runoff. To keep the sites aerated, floating solar water pumps could be installed.

While all the actions suggested will not eliminate storm water runoff, they could be an effective means to reduce the problem.

Philadelphia has a Green Cities Clean Water program that demonstrates the effectiveness of a community-wide effort.

Other forms of citizen actions could occur within our homes. Fixing water leaks, installing low-flow faucets, shower heads and toilets, using front-loading washing machines, drying clothes on lines and racks, and buying Energy Star appliances are ways to cut energy and water consumption.

Up to 75 percent of the operating cost of supplying water to a community is attributable to energy use. Reducing water consumption saves money for both individuals and communities.

Seeing the plumes from our local power plant can stimulate us to upgrade our energy efficiency investments and install renewable energy sources, which do not use water for cooling. The plumes are a constant reminder of the important link between our consumption of energy and water.

Former alderman: Rail station should be on Cedar Street Guest Column

By Victory Bell

Based on the dream of Gordon Geddes and his 1977-1979 vision outlined in a preliminary study conducted by Rock Valley Metropolitan Council, I truly believe the best location for the new proposed rail station in Rockford is the property on Cedar Street, directly across from the U.S. Federal Courthouse.

My comments are not intended to criticize either the station locations already considered or pending recommendations. It is my intent to share with you my reasons and provide documented information relative to the history associated with the rail yard in the City of Rockford.

First, I would like to commend the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), regional public elected officials that participated in Rockford Friday, June 20, 2014, and residents for attending the kick-off meeting. I am impressed with the collaboration displayed by our regional leadership team, including Belvidere, Huntley and Elgin.

Building the railroad station in Rockford on the southwest side is a major step forward for the entire region. Passenger rail between Rockford to Chicago will create major economic development opportunities and stimulate new business and residential growth for our region.

Between 1973 and 1975, Rockford and the nation were recovering from the recessions of the previous years. By 1977, Rockford had experienced a decline in employment by 8,575 employees. According to the Illinois State Employment Services, 3,850 fewer people were employed in 1977 than in 1976. This trend caused concerns for the City of Rockford, County of Winnebago, major industry, labor unions, Rockford Chamber of Commerce and citizens of the entire region.

Citizens residing in southwest Rockford were experiencing major problems obtaining jobs in the years of 1976, 1977 and 1978. Students attending schools on the west side were experiencing extreme high unemployment rates and inferior

education, which led to an increased dropout rate for African-American students.

Northern Illinois Business Corporation (NIBC) was funded by Illinois Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie in 1976 to provide technical assistance to minority small business to start up business in depressed areas. Ron Moore, a young African-American college graduate, was hired as NIBC executive director. Ron grew up in southwest Rockford and graduated from Rockford Boylan High School with honors.

Sometime between the years of 1976 and 1977, Gordon Geddes called me and explained his Geddes Proposal. He discussed that his plan would stimulate economic development and could develop the railroad property into an industrial development project. Gordon said he needed funds to conduct a preliminary study. John Holmstrom Jr., a prominent attorney in the Rockford region, called me and requested a meeting with him and the Rev. Maurice Phillips, executive director of OIC. They requested my support as Fifth Ward alderman for Gordon Geddes with his Geddes Proposal for the railroad project.

I was impressed with Gordon’s proposal and invited him to attend the Northern Illinois Business Corporation monthly meeting. Gordon attended the board meeting, and we voted to support his Geddes Proposal.

Northern Illinois Business Corporation requested Rock Valley Metropolitan Council to conduct the preliminary study for Gordon. All applications for federal funds were required to go through Rock Valley Metropolitan Council before federal funds would be granted.

Description of the Geddes Proposal: The Geddes Proposal is a flexible concept for the redevelopment of the area bounded by: 1. Rock River on the east; 2. Cedar and Preston streets on the north; 3. South Horace on the west; 4. the south branch of the Kent Creek and Cunningham Road on the south The object of the proposal is to clear the area of:

1. Not all buildings need to be cleared.

2. Potential for residential development within the area.

3. Currently poor access to the area.

4. Flood problem of north and south branch of Kent Creek.

5. The recreational and cultural possibilities.

Preservation of usable buildings: The proposal suggests that: Twin Disc, Liebovich Bros., and a number of other well-established firms be included in the plan without disturbances. Street layout should be engineered for future development.

Lack of access: 1. Lack of access to Illinois Toll Road or Bypass 20.

2. The possibility of constructing a transportation corridor from southeast, beginning at the interchange of Bypass 20 and the new 51 expressway.

3. Need north-south access perhaps to be filled as an alternate to the repair of the existing Winnebago Street viaduct.

Land use tenure: 1. The railroads own the largest piece of the area.

2. Other than the railroads, the City of Rockford is the largest landowner, with approximately 95.1 acres, 89.87 of which is in one parcel.

3. Twin Disc Clutch Company, 20.1 acres.

4. Liebovich Bros., 7.9 acres.

Flood and recreation: 1. Construction of the flood project at both north and south branches of Kent Creek (**) 2. Conclusion 1 above notwithstanding, the flood project could be implemented in a limited fashion without construction of the flood project. ** Once the Corps of Engineers completed the flood project at both north and south branches, 68 to 70 percent of flood-prone land in the rail yard westofSouthMainStreettoHorsmanStreetbecame inevitable for economic development projects.

We now have an urban land bank for commercial projects usually slated for the far-east and northeast parts of town.

Based on the dream of Gordon Geddes and

his vision outlined in the preliminary study conduced by Rock Valley Metropolitan Council, I truly believe the best location for the new passenger rail station in Rockford is property located on Cedar Street directly across from the U.S. Federal Courthouse. This location will give added value to the Amerock development, including the proposed hotel. The newly-purchased property previously owned by Allen Murphy at 514 S. Church St. could accommodate the needed parking projected by the City of Rockford. Two of the present existing buildings located at the north of the consolidated railroad yard were used as freight facilities for Northwest and Burlington rail services carrying goods from east to west through the United States in the early 1900s.

Locating the station at this location would stimulate the following: 1. Complement the preliminary study of the Geddes Proposal completed June 30, 1977, for Gordon Geddes. The purpose of the proposal was to develop an economic development strategy to stimulate productive economic development in the railroad property in the inner city.

2. Reclaim land located in the railroad yard once classified as 100-year flood status prior to building the North/South Kent Creek dam project.

3. Create an interest by the City of Rockford, developers, south/west citizens and Winnebago County to research the feasibility of re-evaluating the need to consider implementing the “Final Report Kent Creek Industrial Strategy, Rockford, Illinois.” (This report was prepared for South West Improvement for Today & Tomorrow, September 1980, now known as South West Ideas for Today & Tomorrow.)

We can learn from the past, and we improve our future if we bring this quality vision forward today. Obviously, modification and compromise on this classic vision will be necessary. Anyone can see if the temporary train station goes out east, the permanent station will never come to the west side of downtown.

Victory Bell served as Fifth Ward alderman in the City of Rockford for 38 years, retiring in 2009.

Rockford Public School District: ‘Then There Were None!’

Guest Column

By Jane Hayes

Two more stellar teachers, Donna Moeller, dean of secondary math curriculum throughout Rockford Public School District 205 (RPS 205), and the CAPA and Fine Arts director, LuAnn Widergren, have recently lost their jobs in District 205!

These outstanding teachers/administrators wrote

a noteworthy federal grant for the district, the RPS 205 Arts Infusion Grant. They submitted — and won — the $1,272,270 federal grant from the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Innovation and Improvement, with District 205 being one of only eight districts nationwide to receive the grant. Perhaps someone should contact the U.S. Department of Education about this farce!

Communications coordinator from District 205 and former Rockford Register Star reporter Mary

Kaull stated in a news release: “Loud applause to RPS Fine Arts Director LuAnn Widergren and curriculum expert Moeller, who worked together countless hours to 1) win the grant and 2) design how the integration will look at the classroom level.” (http://blogs.e-rockford.com/rockfordpublicschools/2013/12/10/arts-infusion-grant-to-beginnext-month-in-rps/#axzz3CivwRCMt) How embarrassing is it that one loyal district employee, Mary Kaull, has praised these wom-

en, and now they have been dismissed under suspicious circumstances? How unusual is it for a Golden Apple Principal Award winner from 2012 such as Widergren to exit the district in September when she is highly respected?

So, who takes responsibility for the implementation of this prestigious grant now that the authors are gone? Did they refuse to have the funding for the arts siphoned off to other Continued on page 7 

Sept. 29 deadline for Renewable Energy Awards Staff Report

Winnebago County Board Chairman Scott Christiansen (R) has announced nominations are being accepted for the 2014 Renewable Energy Awards. Deadline for nominations is Sept. 29.

The awards will be presented at this year’s Northern Illinois Renewable Energy Summit and Expo Oct. 9-10 at Radisson Hotel and Conference Center, 200 S. Bell School Road, Rockford.

This year’s awards are open to individuals, organizations, businesses, and villages and municipalities in four categories: Chairman’s Energy Conservation Award, Renewable Energy

   Close the loopholes on clean water

This spring, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed a rule to close the loopholes that are currently leaving 20 million acres of the nation’s wetlands and half of our streams and rivers unprotected under the Clean Water Act. This is particularly problematic in our state because of the threat of continued contamination to Lake Michigan, a drinking source to millions of Illinoisans.

Those neglected rivers and streams flowing into Lake Michigan threaten public health and a source of revenue drawn from recreational uses of waterways across Illinois. Additionally, contamination of the Rock River, a tributary of the nation’s beloved Mississippi River, poses a threat to the historical and sentimental value of such an important landmark in the U.S. The House of Representatives is soon voting on this crucial issue that affects Illinoisans across the state. U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Illinois, must vote “No” on House Resolution 5078 and take a stand against the biggest water polluters in the state.

It is crucial to ensure the security of clean water across Illinois by remaining vigilant about protecting our natural resources in the face of oversights in federal regulations. Our ability to turn on the tap and access clean water should never be taken for granted or violated.

We should be doing everything we can to protect the Rock River. Unfortunately, it seems that Congress, including U.S. Rep. Cheri Bustos, D-Illinois, is doing everything it can to put our waterways in jeopardy.

and streams, including 56 percent of Illinois’ rivers, left in limbo for nearly a decade after a pair of Supreme Court decisions created a loophole in the law.

EPA has proposed a rule to close this loophole and again safeguard under federal law the state’s smaller headwaters and streams. Thousands of Illinoisans have already commented in favor of the rule, but polluters have waged a bitter fight against it.

So, instead of siding with our local waters, like the Mississippi and Rock rivers and the Illinoisans who love to fish and boat in them, Congress and Rep. Bustos have sided with the polluters. That’s a real disappointment.

Editor’s note: The writer sent a copy of the following letter to U.S. Sens. Dick Durbin, D-Illinois, and Mark Kirk, R-Illinois, and U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Illinois.

Money talks

We are naïve to believe that foreign interests, including countries, are not participating in the funding of elections and controlling the news within the United States. The University of Illinois decision indicates how insidious this practice has become.

From the Wall Street Journal, Sept. 11, 2014: “Steven Salaita, a Palestinian-American professor with an expertise in indigenous studies, accepted a tenure-track position last year to start working in the American Indian Studies Program in Illinois in August.

In preparation for his new job, he said he quit his old post at Virginia Tech and sold his house. Then, during the Israel offensive in Gaza this summer, he posted a series of opinions against Israel on Twitter.”

It is quite apparent to me that there will be little inquiry into foreign influences within our institutions, political or educational.

Opposition to Common Core mounting; local event Sept. 19 Editor’s note: The following is the second in a two-part series. Part one, “Common Core — what is it and how does it work?”, appeared in the Sept. 10-16, 2014, issue. That part focused on explanatory information from the Common Core website, www.corestandards.org. This second part addresses the other side — opposition to Common Core. The Illinois State Board of Education adopted Common Core June 24, 2010, and it is in effect at public schools throughout the state this school year.

By Susan Johnson

Copy Editor Now implemented in 45 states, the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) have drawn fire from various segments of the educational spectrum — teachers, students, parents and education administrators. Is it merely a case of “buyer’s remorse” or that school administrators did not thoroughly research it? Or is there something else?

The Common Core website says the program was developed by state education chiefs and governors in 48 states to establish standards for kindergarten through 12th grade. But as Bonny Garcea, former high school English teacher and now an online tutor, points out, the group of people responsible for creating Common Core was selected by the Gates Foundation. No public records of these meetings were kept. Groups not included in writing Common Core were high school English and math teachers, early childhood educators, school board members and parents. The main writers, David Coleman and Susan Pimentel, had no teaching experience.

Validated by whom?

After CCSS was written, it had to be approved by the Validation Committee. Two content experts were on the committee: Dr. Sandra Stotsky (English Language Arts expert, professor emerita and former senior associate commissioner in the Massachusetts Department of Education) and Dr. James Milgram (professor emeritus of mathematics at Stanford). Both refused to validate the Common Core and now speak out against it.

Jason Zimba, a lead author of the Core mathematics standards, has publicly stated the standards are low and are “not only not for STEM (science, technology, engineering, math and medicine careers), they are also not for selective colleges.”

Garcea says she has personally seen some of the essay and multiple choice questions and approved readings on practice tests. She asserts they are biased and, in many cases, anti-American. Students had to read and write about articles on bioengineering, in which the only articles provided were favorable. The same applied to pro-global warming articles.

Garcea added: “One essay topic I saw asked, ‘How is the state like a family? How can the state be even better than a family?’ A multiple choice question I saw asked students to choose who had ultimate authority over people, and the correct practice test answer was ‘the government.’

These kinds of assignments and test questions and answers seem like attempts at controlling the way students think.”

The math standards are supposed to bring all students up to the same level without lowering any previous standards. But Garcea sees problems here. Students cannot use the stacking method for addition and subtraction that all previous generations learned. In fact, many teachers disallow it and mark students wrong for using it, even if their answer is correct. The Common Core method takes so much longer that, by the end of high school, most students won’t have achieved a higher level in math and will end at algebra. Students who excel in math are forced to work at a slower pace and soon lose interest.

Garcea is not the only one to note danger signs.

Dr. James Milgram, the only mathematician on the Common Core Validation Committee, refused to sign off on the math standards. He said that “... by the endofseventhgradeCoreStandardsareroughlytwo years behind” those of the high-achieving countries, like Finland.

homework, are forced to walk away, unable to help with the methodology. In geometry, the Common Core standards are criticized for “abandoning Euclidian geometry in favor of an untested experimental approach and not adequately requiring students to understand how to make conversions between fractions, decimals and percents.” [2]

NCLB or Race to the Top?

The Common Core website says it is not part of No Child Left Behind or any other federal initiative and that the federal government played no role in the development of Common Core. The CCSS were not part of the Race to the Top program.

The website states: “The federal government gave competitive advantage to Race to the Top applicants that demonstrated that they had or planned to adopt college- and career-ready standards for all students.

The program did not specify the Common Core or prevent states from creating their own, separate college- and career-ready standards.”

Here’s what happened: The U.S. Department of Education gave states a very brief window in 2010 to sign on to the not-yet-written Common Core standards in Math and English Language Arts. It also promised relief from the coming financial penalties to be imposed by No Child Left Behind. No state had met the math and reading goals of that much-maligned standard.

The federal government dangled $4.3 billion of Race to the Top funding before cash-strapped states, available out of “stimulus” funds. [3] Unlike any previous education standard, CCSS is copyrighted by two lobbying groups, the National Governors Association (NGA) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO). [4] The NGA is a Washington, D.C.-based lobby group.

Governors, like the rest of us, did not find out what the standards entailed until they were implemented.

The CCSS website says: “Local teachers, principals, superintendents, and others will decide how the standards are to be met. Teachers will continue to devise lesson plans and tailor instruction to the individual needs of the students.” In practice, school districts are told they may add up to 15 percent of material to the standards, but may not change the copyrighted materials. Common Core requires two solid weeks of testing each school year, with third graders wasting valuable enrichment time training on keyboards for high-stress testing. [5] The outcome, according to Common Core

opponents, is that kids who formerly loved math now hate it. Similarly, the same critics suggest children who used to enjoy reading at home as well as school have stopped doing it. There is a systematic removal of literature from the curriculum. Some of what remains is inappropriate for the grade level.

By the fourth grade, students are to be reading 40 percent “informational texts,” and by 12th grade, 70 percent. What are these “informational texts”?

They include “Invasive Plant Inventory” and Euclid’s Elements (listed in “Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts, Appendix B).”

Indecent literature?

The Ohio Liberty Coalition (OLC) is one of several groups helping broadcast some parents’ concerns over two “text exemplars” recommended by CCSS, pointing to what they allege are graphic sexual passages in the novels suggested for 11th-grade students.

As commentator Jason Hart wrote in an article dated Sept. 16, 2013, Ohio is one of the states that agreed to implement Common Core, and is now one of several states where parents have rallied in opposition to it.

“Excerpts from Toni Morrison’s The Bluest Eye and Cristina Garcia’s Dreaming in Cuban are included in a Common Core document which asserts the included text samples ‘should serve as useful guideposts in helping educators select texts of similar complexity, quality, and range for their own classrooms,’” Hart suggested.

“The inclusion of Morrison’s novel in the Common Core list was first highlighted by the blog Politichicks, and the Common Core list has been shared by the Ohio Department of Education (ODE).

“The Bluest Eye, OLC wrote in August, ‘is about a young girl who is abused and raped by her father and then abused by another man to whom she appeals for help. Even heavily edited, the excerpts contained in the Politichicks article are extremely graphic and it is hard to believe anyone would want to expose young people 15, 16, and 17 years old, to this material.’ … “ State School Board President Debe Terhar also expressed opposition to the book being taught in Ohio K-12 schools.”

Hart also noted, “In a separate Sept. 13 post about Dreaming in Cuban, OLC encouraged parents to contact Governor John Kasich’s administration and express their disapproval of the books recomContinued on page 33 

Council approves zoning for west-side Save-A-Lot

By Jim Hagerty

Staff Writer Rockford aldermen approved zoning for a new Save-A-Lot store at the corner of West State Street and Central Avenue Monday, Sept. 15, something supporters say will serve what has been called a food desert on the city’s west side.

The vote will allow non-profit developer IFF to begin building the 15,000-square-foot store with hopes of opening it next year.

The project is expected to cost $3 million, and will be financed mostly through the Illi-

nois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity. The city would also contribute $500,000 in TIF funds.

Just as she did a month ago when the project was proposed to the council, Rockford Ald. Linda McNeely, D-13, voted against the zoning.

She wants the city to bring a large chain grocer to the west side, instead of the small, discount Save-A-Lot. The vote was 11-1.

The council also approved an agreement with the State of Illinois to turn a downtown stretch of South Main Street into a two-way road. The

DuPont ordered to pay $1.85M for killing trees

By Jim Hagerty

Staff Writer Chemical giant DuPont has been ordered to pay a $1.8 million penalty to settle allegations by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that it failed to submit reports about the dangers of one of its products.

In a settlement released Monday, Sept. 15, DuPont agreed to pay $1,853,000 for violating the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodentcide Act (FIFRA) by misbranding a herbicide product called Imprelis.

The EPA found that DuPont sold the product without disclosing its risk to the health of certain trees. As a result, the weed controlling product caused widespread damage to Norway spruce and white pines, mostly in the Midwest. The company submitted more than 7,000 reports to the EPA detailing damage to the species. Tree damage occurred in Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin between 2010 and 2011.

The EPA also found that several other species — balsam fir, lilac, maple, honey locust sycamore and alder — are also susceptible to being damaged or killed by Imprelis.

Capital Brewery’s Oktoberfest a delicious, malty lager

By Michael Sears

President, Forest City Brewers Greetings, craft beer lovers.

The weather sure is playing tricks with us, eh?

That cool snap coupled with the fact that I noticed the leaves starting to lose their green really brought home that fall is just around the corner ... hoo boy! So, I guess I should talk about another Oktoberfest beer, this one from Capital Brewery.

Since it has been since May that I talked about Capital Brewery, I will recap about them.

Capital Brewery of Middleton, Wisconsin, was founded in March 1984 by Madison, Wisconsin, entrepreneur Ed Janus, in the former Mazomanie Egg Factory building. In 1985, they installed brew kettles from the German brewery Hoxter Brewery, with production beginning in spring

1986 and their first brews being Pilsner and Dark. They currently produce more than 30,000 barrels of beer annually. Capital has a portfolio of 19 distinct beers: eight year-round, four seasonal and seven limited release.

The majority are brewed under the strict German Reinheitsgebot guidelines, a.k.a. the German Beer Purity Law, requiring that the only ingredients used are water, barley, hops and yeast.

Capital Brewery Co. recently claimed a total of nine medals in the 2013 World Beer Championship, an international beer competition, sponsored by the Beverage Testing Institute in Chicago. Six of those awards were gold and three silver. Capital Brewery dominated the lager tasting, and their version of Oktoberfest was one of the gold awards. They were also named Grand National Champion in U.S.

Open Beer Championship, where 2,500 different beers were submitted by breweries from the U.S. and more than 20 other countries.

For this tasting, I am using a traditional American pint glass. The label on the bottle is quite colorful with red, orange and yellow leaves with a backdrop of the Wisconsin State Capitol building — very nice aesthetics.

The pour is a brilliantly clear amber color with orange highlights. The head is a vigorous off-white of one-finger depth but shortlived, as it recedes quickly to a thin layer, leaving no lace behind.

The aroma is tough to discern because of the very minimal head, but I do detect bread-like malt at the front with some sweet caramel and maybe a touch of hop. I think I may have caught a very slight apple also.

The initial taste is malty and slightly sweet

across the tongue. It reminds me of fresh-baked wheat bread and honey. The apple I thought I smelled comes through next, then smoothly transitions to a dry and grassy/spicy hop finish ... not bitter, but nicely balanced.

The mouth feel is smooth and medium-bodied with some slickness on the tongue and decent carbonation, creating a dry finish that lingers, balancing out the sweetness.

Overall impression is Capital’s Oktoberfest is another delicious, malty lager. The toasted Vienna malt and balancing hops give the beer a tasty, classic flavor I could sit and enjoy on a fall afternoon or evening by a nice outdoor fire with friends.

Until next week, I bid you auf wiedersehen and prost!

Two rainbows in two different places on the same day — the beginning of an auspicious trip Literary Hook

By Christine Swanberg Author and Poet

Notes from The Poetry Rendezvous and Pilgrimage to the Sangre de Cristo Mountains

A sage once told me that a pilgrimage often starts with a difficult beginning.

On the day we left for New Mexico, a monsoon greeted us on the way to the bus in Rockford. By the time we arrived at the terminal, small creeks were whirling into gutters. Then, suddenly, the rain stopped, and in the east was a crescent rainbow. A good omen?

At O’Hare, for reasons only the computer knows, we were whisked to the “fast lane,” in which you don’t have to take off your shoes, and it is unlikely that your bags will be searched, unless something truly suspicious-looking is in them. So far, so good.

Then, about a half hour before the small jet was to take off, another monsoon hit, slicing the windows at the airport with such a hard rain that everything was blurred. The weather delayed

take-off and jumbled the scheduled arrivals and gate assignments; we were whisked to another gate, where we finally took off a couple of hours later. Thankfully, the ride to Albuquerque was smooth and sunny.

I was expecting the dry desert I remembered from previous trips to the Southwest, so when we had the opportunity to upgrade to a Mustang convertible, we took it. On the way to Santa Fe, another monsoon hit, this time with flash flooding as we approached Santa Fe. We made it to the Lodge at Santa Fe intact, asked for a free upgrade, and were given a suite instead of a standard room. By this time, most of the day had passed, so we headed to the upstairs restaurant that overlooked the mountains. Looking out the window over the Sangre de Cristos, we saw another rainbow stretched like a feather over the edge of the mountains.

What are the odds of seeing two rainbows in two different places on the same day? Indeed, this would be an auspicious trip.

Christine Swanberg is a local author and poet. She received the Lawrence E. Gloyd Community Impact Award at the 2012 Rockford Area Arts Council State of the Arts Awards.

PECATONICA, Illinois — Abundance opens at 8 p.m., Friday, Sept. 19, and runs through Sunday, Oct. 5, at Pecatonica’s Pec Playhouse Theatre, 314 Main St. From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Crimes of the Heart comes this poignant, but unromanticized, story of the hard lives of pioneers on the high plains of Wyoming in the 1860s.

Macon and Bess are two mail-order brides, lured to the West by the promise of new beginnings through marriage to men they have

never met. While waiting for their respective husbands-to-be, one bubbling with optimism, the other mousy and plain, the two women become instant best friends.

As Abundance follows the two women through their friendship and adventures for the next 25 years, this Western epic unearths the dark underside of American mythology.

Last week’s solution:

Crossword puzzle creator Myles Mellor, of Lake View Terrace, Calif., has been creating puzzles of various styles for multiple publications for more than eight years.

Opposition to Common Core mounting ...  Continued from page 6 mended in Common Core’s ‘text exemplars’ list.”

Personal data collection alleged

The CCSS website says, “There are no data collection requirements for states adopting the standards. ... Implementing the Common Core State Standards does not require data collection.

The means of assessing students and the use of the data that result from these assessments are up to the discretion of each state and are separate and unique from the Common Core.”

Bonny Garcea suggests otherwise. “Different from past education-related data collection,” she says, “this data collection will identify individual students and save their records forever, including every score ever earned and even comments on attitudes and beliefs. This information can even be shared with third parties for non-educational issues. The federal government is not allowed to maintain a national student database, but it gets around that rule by getting states to agree to Common Core by offering money as an incentive and then making states who took the money create identical data collection systems as part of the Common Core deal. The federal government also gave states grant money if they made such collection systems, so it can be shared easily. The information contains the following in addition to school performance: health history, disciplinary history, family income range, voting status, and religious affiliation. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) was gutted in 2012 and no longer protects students.

Pretty much anyone can have their information if they ask in the right way.”

So far, more than 100 Roman Catholic dioceses have adopted CCSS, as have many Lutheran Church Missouri Synod school districts. Locally, the Rockford Christian Schools have adopted it.

What if parents want to opt out of Common Core? They can refuse to have their child take part in the standardized testing. That was the advice offered at the July 22 “We Will Not Conform” event held in selected theaters nationwide, hosted by Glenn Beck. But before doing that, parents are advised to learn all they can about this program that can affect their child for years to come. So far, four states have repealed CCSS, and opposition is mounting.

Dr. Duke Pesta, a nationally-known opponent of National Standards including Common Core, will speak on the topic “Fighting Common Core: Round 2,” at 6:30 p.m., Friday, Sept. 19, at Hoffman House Convention Center, 7550 E. State St., Rockford. Dr. Pesta is a professor of English at the University of Wisconsin, Oshkosh, and the academic director of Freedom Project Education. He received his M.A. in Renaissance literature from John Carroll University and his Ph.D. in Shakespeare and Renaissance literature from Purdue University. A free-will offering will be taken.

34The Rock River Times • Sept. 17-23, 2014 Your Horoscope

By Denise Guzzardo

Week of Sept. 17-23, 2014 This Week: Now that Mars has arrived in Sagittarius and will remain there for its six-week tour, utilize this highly charged energy to get those nagging projects done. This planetary vibration will also invoke plenty of opportunities to socialize. Sagittarius can be blunt, so be cautious not to form a case of foot-in-mouth disease when you communicate with others. The new moon arrives Sept. 24 in romantic Libra. This moon emphasizes relationships in general — romantic as well as friendships. Make every moment count.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) — Your intuition is acutely tuned in this week, especially regarding the emotional or physical well-being of a female friend or family member. The tricky part will be broaching the subject without igniting some resistance. Trust that when the opportunity does arrive to express your concerns, the words will be received with authenticity and love.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) — Avoid getting too involved in a negative aspect that does not seem to have any end in sight. Take a step back and fix yourself before you work on “fixing”

someone else. Right now, many opportunities are presenting themselves to you. You cannot allow another to drag you down. A little personal TLC is highly recommended.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) — You will be put in a position to have to defend another. Try very hard to choose your words carefully. Don’t bend on your convictions or get caught up in the “he said, she said” stuff. Move forward with love and integrity, and others will follow. This is a spiritual test, one you can pass with flying colors.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) — It appears an addition to the family will be arriving soon. This may be of the two-legged or four-legged variety.

In either case, this will definitely shift the energy for the greater good during the months to come.

Another may try to twist the words of a friend or loved one. Go to the source and get all of the facts before you become too confrontational.

Don’t feed the negativity.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) — Now you may be in a position to help a loved one rekindle a relationship that is important to them. You may need to be the voice of reason here. Question the behavior of this individual as well. How is it that they can just throw blame around or cut people off at the knees? Remember, if they can do this to others, what are they capable of doing to you?

Teach compassion this week.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) — Slowly, but sure-

Caruana, Springer to face off in Oct. 8 sheriff ’s debate

Staff Report

Gary Caruana (R) and Bob Springer (D) — the two candidates for Winnebago County sheriff — will square off in a debate from 6 to 8:30 p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 8, at Rockford University Clark Arts Center/Maddox Theatre, 5050 E. State St., Rockford.

The event is sponsored by the Rockford League

of Women Voters, Rockford University and WREX Channel 13. Moderator is Ken DeCoster of WREX. Those arriving early to the debate will have a chance to meet both candidates.

The Winnebago County sheriff ’s race appears on the Tuesday, Nov. 4, General Election ballot.

Polls are open 6 a.m.-7 p.m., that day. Learn more at http://winnebago.il.clerkserve.com/.

Horoscopes/News ly, you are in a position to rebuild a relationship with another. It is up to you how much effort you are willing to put into this. Try to see people as sensitive individuals and not commodities, and you will come out shining like a star this week.

You’ve had enough of the negativity, and you’re ready for a clean slate. Take care of your emotions and needs first. Everything else will fall into place.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) — For whatever reason, you’re willing to let go of an old emotional wound. Finally, after searching and searching, you have found the purpose of that relationship and what it has taught you. One message is you became strong and wise as a result of it. Your ability to “help others” emotionally came from that same wound. Be proud of that scar — show it off, as it has made you who you are today.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) — Unusual legal aspects or documents take a turn for the better.

This is a result of how you have chosen to look at it: in a different light than you were able to see it from before. Your spiritual awakening is about to take shape and form. Your values are shifting and changing now.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) — If you have been uneasy about cash flow, trust that the universe will continue to have your back in the months to come. This may even seem a little more challenging than normal because there has been an outpouring of cash for

upgrades or repairs recently. You will notice with Mars in your sign for the next six weeks that a positive flow of energy on all levels will arrive. Chin up, buttercup.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) — Financial and emotional restrictions are lifted this week.

You can breathe a huge sigh of relief and begin to enjoy the simple things in life again. Family and friends have been waiting for you to come out of your shell. Plenty of opportunities to socialize are available this week, so take advantage of these connections and emotional support. All eyes are on you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) — If you have been a little too hard on someone, it may backlash on you now. Back off a bit and stay out of another’s family situations. You may feel as though you are lending support, but in the long run, this could come back to bite you somehow. Take time out for yourself. Get together with those of like mind and interests now.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) — Someone will attempt to extend the olive branch to you.

Try not to give them such a hard time (even if they deserve it). Remember, this is a time to forgive. Forgiveness does not necessarily mean you need to forget, it just gives another way too much power over you if you cannot let things go.

Candle Crest owners to open their first store and manufacturing operation in Rockford

By Betsy Lopez-Wagner

Special to The Rock River Times Dave and Judy Bieck are set to open their first Candle Crest store and manufacturing operation Sept. 20.

Beloved for their all-natural, environmentally friendly candles — which include the Rockford C an d l e , a scented treat designed and brought to life to grow community support to Candle Crest’s soy-based candles. fight the city’s negative public image — the couple say this local launch has been years in the making.

The Biecks have been dreaming up scents for their soy-based candles since before their inception in January 2009, working markets, festivals and art fairs in the years after while supplying businesses locally and throughout the nation with their products via wholesales.

Opening at 10 a.m., Saturday, Sept. 20, the 1,600-square-foot shop at 1418 20th St. in Rockford will be home to a candle manufacturing center, order fulfillment center, and a chic new storefront. The local company’s setup in the former Stockholm Inn building will allow a unique engagement opportunity for shoppers — they’ll be able to watch the soy candles as they are poured and prepared from a row of windows. Gone will be the days of creating products from a small home studio, a humble section of space within a garage. The new store will be open three days a week, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays,

and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturdays.

“We are ecstatic because it is so much more than what we’ve had,” said Judy Bieck. “We always knew we’d get to this point and are extremely excited we have a place that locals can go to. They’ve been asking for it and asking for it.”

During opening d a y, t w o new fall fragrances will be unveiled — Autumn Stroll and Apple Cider.

Scrumptiously delightful, both scents were created to celebrate the start of a much-adored season of falling colors and sweet aromas. In addition, the first 20 customers will revel in a surprise bag of free products. There will be tours, promotions and discounts. Attendees will also be eligible for giveaways from area businesses and will automatically receive 20 percent off their entire Candle Crest purchase.

Rockford resident Janet Sullivan, 70, has long hoped the day would come when Candle Crest would outgrow its Rockford City Market booth and studio space. While Candle Crest will continue stocking local shelves and providing products for area businesses, Sullivan says she’ll be a regular at the 20th Street shop.

“This means I can go buy a candle much easier than I have been able to,” Sullivan said. “I think it’s great to have them more accessible. People are familiar with buying their candles at these other stores, and it’s fantastic they’ll still be sold

The threat of antibiotic resistance Guest Column

By Dev Gowda

Advocate, Illinois Public Interest Research Group

Jeanine Thomas

President and Founder, MRSA Survivors Network

and Jessica Fujan

Organizer, Food and Water Watch Illinois The story of medicine is one of hope and progress. Today, diseases and illnesses are better understood and treated than at any point in human history.

This is why it’s so disturbing that medicine, in one critical way, is getting closer to taking a giant step backward.

Antibiotics are losing their effectiveness, and the manner in which livestock and poultry are raised on many large factory farms is part of the problem.

In its recent report on antimicrobial resistance, the World Health Organization (WHO) said: “A post-antibiotic era in which common infections and minor injuries can kill — far from being an apocalyptic fantasy — is instead a very real possibility

for the 21st Century.”

The WHO report is the latest in a string of increasingly dire warnings from the medical community. Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said: “If we are not careful, we will soon be in a post-antibiotic era, and for some patients and some microbes, we are already there.”

The American Medical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Public Health Association and others agree.

What does such a post-antibiotic future look like? Already there are 23,000 deaths each year from antibiotic-resistant infections, according to the CDC. And public health experts are in agreement: If we don’t act, the problem will only get worse.

Meningitis and bacterial pneumonia may

once again become untreatable. Simple infections from cuts and scrapes may lead to amputations or death. The risks from chemotherapy and radiation therapy, important cancer therapies, may prove too great because both weaken the immune system and make patients susceptible to infections. The CDC cites tuberculosis and MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) as examples of bacterial illnesses associated with antimicrobial resistance.

It was in 1928 that Alexander Fleming stumbled upon the curative effects of penicillin. It didn’t take long for the medical community to understand that resistance naturally follows the introduction of an antibiotic. It’s for this reason that doctors are naturally judicious about prescribing an antibiotic.

However, such cautiousness does not always exist on animal farms. More than 70 percent of antibiotics in classes used in human medicine are sold for use in food animals. This is typically done to increase animal weight gain or to prevent disease caused by unsanitary, crowded conditions.

This exposure to antibiotics on a massive scale accelerates the development of drug-re-

sistant bacteria. The more that bacteria are exposed to antibiotics, the faster this can happen. And once resistance develops, the problem can spread rapidly, as bacteria reproduce in minutes and swap resistant genes with each other.

Even more alarming, these resistant bacteria can make their way to humans through contaminated food and water, and dust blowing off farms.

To prevent the WHO’s fear of a post-antibiotic future from becoming a reality, we need to stop the spread of superbugs — and that means ending the misuse of antibiotics.

According to the 2009 American Academy of Pediatrics Technical Report, ending human misuse of antibiotics will be insufficient to curb the accelerating trend in antibiotic resistance.

It is widely accepted that feeding antibiotics to livestock has a direct negative impact on human health and the environment. The time to act is now.

If we want a future in which antibiotics remain a central pillar of health care, we need all animal farms to take similar action immediately.

Congress and the Barack Obama administration can make this happen by requiring that livestock and poultry operations stop using antibiotics on animals that aren’t sick. This immediate action is critical to ensure that these precious medicines are preserved for generations to come.

Blood, marrow drive for sickle cell patient at Hope Fellowship Church Sept. 20 Staff Report

Ten-year-old Malik is a young boy who suffers from sickle cell disease.

Sickle cell disease causes him severe chronic pain, loss of energy and requires him to receive blood transfusions. Because Malik will likely receive blood transfusions for much of his life, his family and friends will host a blood and marrow drive from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 20, at Hope Fellowship Church, 1135 E. State St., in Rockford.

Blood transfusions are necessary in the treatment of sickle cell disease to treat severe anemia and prevent strokes. Blood transfusions bring an instantaneous boost to Malik’s spirits and health. Malik’s family is hoping to educate the community about sickle cell and the need for more

blood donors and diversity within the donor base. While doing so, they hope to collect at least 25 units of blood. Donors may also join the Be the Match Marrow Donor Registry. Marrow/stem cell transplants are often used in the treatment of sickle cell anemia.

Donating blood is safe and simple.

You are most likely able to donate if you are at least 17 years old (16-year-olds may donate with parental consent), weigh at least 110 pounds, and are in general good health. People taking medications are not necessarily disqualified.

The Rock River Valley Blood Center serves as a centralized, community blood center and is the sole provider of blood products and services to Beloit Memorial Hospital, Edgerton Hospital and Health Services, FHN, OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center, Rochelle Community Hospital, Rockford Health System, SwedishAmerican Health System and SwedishAmerican Medical Center — Belvidere. For more information or to make an appointment to donate blood, call Malik’s mother, La’Keshia, at (712) 202-8592 or e-mail her at lakeshiawingo@gmail.com.

Week 3 NFL picks: Wins for Bears and Packers, losses for Lions and Vikings

By Doug Halberstadt

Sports Columnist I know we only just wrapped up the second week of a 17-week NFL regular season. I also know there are loads of games left to be played.

I don’t know if I can withstand another week like I had in week two. With only the Monday night game left to be played at press time, I was 6-9.

I took the Colts over the Eagles in that contest.

Much like a quarterback who throws an interception, I need to have a short memory and forget about the errors and come out throwing again this week. Without further ado, here are my picks for week three ...

In tomorrow night’s game (Thursday, Sept.

18), I like the Falcons (1-1) over the Buccaneers (0-2) in Atlanta. Buffalo (2-0) is at home against the Chargers (1-1). San Diego is fresh off an upset win over the Seahawks. I think they’ll ride that momentum wave and hand the Bills their first loss of the season.

In Sunday’s (Sept. 21) games, the Bengals (20) are at home against the Titans (1-1). I think Cincinnati will remain undefeated and drop the Titans to 1-2. A pair of 1-1 teams face one another in Baltimore as the Ravens host the Cleveland Browns. I’m taking the Ravens.

Green Bay (1-1) and Detroit (1-1) will try to get an edge up in the NFC North when they meet up in the Motor City. I’m giving the edge to the Pack. Another team looking for any type of edge is the Jacksonville Jaguars (0-2). They will be at home against the Indianapolis Colts (0-1). The Jags will stay in the winless column.

Joining the Jags in that winless category will be the Oakland Raiders (0-2). They have the unfortunate task of traveling to Foxboro, Massachusetts, to take on the resurgent Patriots (1-1).

Look for the Raiders to fall to 0-3.

The New Orleans Saints (0-2) are also looking at a goose egg in the win column. That should change this week. They are home against the Minnesota Vikings (1-1). I look for Drew Brees and the Saints to win.

Houston (2-0) will visit the New York Giants (0-2). The Texans seem to be heading in the right direction riding the tails of running back Arian Foster. The Giants seem to be heading in the wrong direction. Several people are blaming quarterback Eli Manning for the troubles in New York. I look for both teams to maintain their headings. The Giants will fall to 0-3, while Houston improves to 3-0.

Robert Griffin III dislocated his ankle and left the game last week. His replacement, Kirk Cousins, led the team to a 31-point win over the Jags. I like Cousins’ stage presence and look for a repeat performance from him against Philadelphia (1-0) this week. The game is in Philly.

Dallas and St. Louis are both 1-1. They meet one another in St. Louis this week. Dallas has more talent at the skill positions. That should translate to a road win for the Cowboys.

The 49ers (1-1) and the Arizona Cardinals (20) will kick off the later games Sunday. Arizona will be looking to improve to 3-0. I like their chances. The 49ers had a huge letdown against Chicago last week. I don’t see them bouncing back from that on the road. They will fall to 1-2.

Kansas City (0-2) will go in search of their first win of the year against the Miami Dolphins (1-1). I’m going with the Chiefs in a mild upset.

Both teams should be 1-2 when this one is done.

What should be the game of the week has the Denver Broncos (2-0) traveling up north to try and do the near impossible — beat the Seahawks (1-1) in Seattle. The Broncos have held on to early leads for both of their wins this season. I don’t

Park District offers fall/winter figure skating classes Staff Report

Rockford Park District’s Carlson Ice Arena is offering new figure skating classes this fall and winter, including the following:  Cheer on Ice — A session of 30-minute classes held Tuesday early evenings for ages 5-16 to combine skating skills with cheerleading and poms to learn cheers and skating skills at the same time, while gaining the benefits of fun exercise. Students may have the opportunity to perform at the Ice Arena’s in-house Jr. IceHogs hockey games during the season. The next six-week sessions begin Sept.

23 and Nov. 4; the fee is $45 ($50 non-resident).  Synchronized Skating — These 45-minute Saturday morning classes introduce skaters ages 4 and older to synchronized skating’s fundamental skills and teamwork, which become the building blocks for future

success in this growing sport. Skaters have opportunities to perform in the Park District’s winter and spring ice shows. The next six-week sessions begin Sept. 27 and Nov. 8; the fee is $45 ($50 non-resident).

Registration is under way for skating programs, and will continue until capacity is reached. Fee assistance and an installment payment plan may be available to those meeting program qualifications. Registrations are taken online, by mail, fax, or at Customer Service locations in downtown Rockford, or at Carlson Ice Arena, Riverside and Perryville, Loves Park, Illinois. Registration information and class descriptions, schedules and fees are available online at www.rockfordparkdistrict.org/iceskate (click My RPD), at Park District Customer Service and facilities, or by calling (815) 969-4069 or (815) 987-8800.

think that formula will work against Seattle. I’m taking the home team, and look for both teams to finish the game with 2-1 records.

The Sunday night game features the Steelers (1-1) going up against the Panthers (2-0) in Carolina. Panthers quarterback Cam Newton appears to be operating at 100 percent. He’s having success throwing to his favorite target, tight end Greg Olson. I look for them to have a big game against Pittsburgh. Put the Panthers down for 3-0 and drop the Steelers to 1-2.

Finally, we get to the Monday night game.

The Bears (1-1) will be in the Big Apple to face the Jets (1-1). The Bears were impressive in their win over the 49ers in last Sunday night’s game.

Despite some key injuries, I like their resolve.

Jay Cutler to Brandon Marshall was almost unstoppable. If they can keep up their chemistry, the Jets won’t be able to prevent them from getting into the end zone. The Bears will need this game to keep pace in their division. Look for them to improve to 2-1.

and Aida Frey

Junior Ranger While Junior Ranger Aida Frey tested her songwriting skills and learned about Buffalo Bill Cody on the first leg of her summer national park tour, she filled the second by taking in the Western landscape.

Frey, 13, has now visited 190 national parks in just four years. She also visited Michigan’s Upper Peninsula this year and will travel to Louisiana in November to see the state’s five national parks.

“When I put on my vest with all my badges, pins, and medals, people notice,” Frey, 13, said.

“I always tell them how grateful I am and how great the National Park System is. “I love being an ambassador for the National Park Service, and I hope I can inspire more families to go out and visit the National Parks of America.”

Following is part two of Aida’s travelogue from her 20-day Western adventure.

July 29, 2014

Today, we first went to Curecanti National Recreation Area, in Colorado. There, there is Blue Mesa Lake. Curecanti also has beautiful rock formations and is surrounded by mountains. I met Ranger Ellen at the park and she takes care of the Junior Ranger Program.

Ranger Ellen was really awesome and she even gave me a special badge that they don’t give out anymore! She also taught me a lot about the wildlife. I am so happy I met her and I was really surprised how beautiful Curecanti is.

We then went to Black Canyon, of the Gunnison National Park (near Curecanti). This park has sheer rock canyon walls that are 18,000 feet tall! It is one of the world’s best-known canyons. I met with Park Ranger Nick at Gunnison, and he spent a lot of time with me discussing the Junior Ranger Program and national parks.

There were three young kids at the visitor center getting their badges. They saw my Junior Ranger vest and got really excited. I talked to their family and encouraged them to continue with the program.They were really happy when they saw me, and I think it was really cool.

July 30, 2014

In the morning, we drove to Colorado National Monument, in Grand Junction. This is a unique place with rock formations and different kinds of canyons. The sand is as red as Mars. We drove to a lot of overlooks and trails. We saw tiny little lizards and really old trees!

The next park we saw was Arches National Park in Moab, Utah. Arches has 2,000 arches, which are rock formations that have the following criteria: They must be at least 3 feet long or wide in all directions, light must be able to pass through them, and they must be formed in a rock. I saw petrified sand dunes, balanced rock formations, different animals and massive boulders. It was amazing! I loved the rock cliffs and the different colors of the rocks and the sand.

At the Visitor Center, I met Park Ranger Anna Arsic. She taught me a lot about the history of the park and animals. She answered a lot of my questions and gave me my Junior Ranger Badge with a special pin. She was great!

Aug. 1, 2014

Our first stop Aug. 1 was Hovenweep National Monument. President Teddy Roosevelt declared Hovenweep a National Monument in 1908 to preserve the 1,800-year-old Indian ruins. The monument is near the Four Corners area and Four Corners Monument.

We went on a mile hike and it was burning hot. We walked to a canyon and saw old Indian houses. I took lots of pictures of the ruins and even one of a little lizard.

We then watched a video in the Visitor Center and a ranger named Jeff Bothe gave me my Junior Ranger badge This was my 175th national park!

From Hovenweep, we visited the famous Monument Valley, on the Navajo Indian Reservation

SOUTH BELOIT ROCKTON ROSCOE ROCKTON TOWNSHIP

at the Utah/Arizona border. Monument Valley is famous for two huge rocks that look like mittens.

But, it has a lot more.

Monument Valley has been used in many films, including four starring John Wayne. We stood on the same balcony that John was on. He said it was his favorite place to relax and enjoy the view.

After exploring the visitor center, we went on a very bumpy, adventurous ride on a 20-mile dirt road. I hit my head on the car roof because it was so bumpy. On the tour, we saw hundreds of different rock formations.

At one of the stops, I met Alon, who is from Holland and is trying to be a famous singer. He was filming there for his new music video. We took a couple pictures and he might put me in his video! He sings really nice and he was awesome!

Aug. 3, 2014

Sunday, Aug. 3, we drove through three different federal areas: National Park Service (NPS), National Forest Service (NFS), and Bureau of Land Management (BLM.) The first stop of the day was Capitol Reef National Park, in Utah. The first thing we saw was the Capitol Dome. It looks like a giant rock formation the size of a mountain.

It is smooth because of erosion. My favorite part of the whole park were the Native American petroglyphs (pictures) chiseled into the rock walls. We had to walk a ways to get to them, plus it was raining. But, I just ran through it.

The petroglyphs are about 1,000 years old and really light in color. They show people wearing necklaces, war helmets, and using weapons to hunt bighorn sheep. I also saw a small settlement called Fruita. In the late 1800s, the Mormons settled in this area and grew fruit orchids that still survive today. I really loved the rock formations Continued on page 39 

A car from your printer Mr. Green Car

By Allen Penticoff

Freelance Writer First, I’ll have to explain a new technology to the few readers who may have never heard of it. Relatively recent technology uses a fancy computer-controlled inkjet printer to spray tiny dots of material in a three-dimensional pattern.

Thousands of layers can be created in any shape, including leaving spaces between individual parts so that in one session of a “print,” multiple parts can be made in a larger assembly. Known as “3D printing,” it is taking industry by storm.

Human replacement parts are being made, as well as young kids building toys in their bedrooms.

So, to anyone who has been following the

explosive growth of this technology, it comes as no surprise that at the recent International Manufacturing Technology Show at McCormick Place on Chicago’s lakefront, someone brought a 3D printer large enough to make a car. A machine maker from Ohio, Cincinnati, Inc., teamed up with another company, Local Motors, of Phoenix, Arizona, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory to build a two-seat electric car in one week. Together, their goal was to print 40 parts for the car during the run of the trade show. Using outside components they could not make, such as the electric motor, batteries and tires, they attempted to assemble a running car called the Strati — and they succeeded.

Using a 3D printer that would barely fit in a one-stall garage, they made the complete chassis that incorporated the fenders, frame such as it

Keeping up with Aida: A Western adventure, part two  Continued from page 38 and learned a lot about the geology.

We then entered into Dixie National Forest and drove through it for at least three hours!

It is a huge forest. It rises to over 9,000 feet and back down to 4,000 feet. It has many overlooks where you can see for what seems like thousands of miles in all directions!

I also saw Grand Staircase- Escalante National Monument, which is run by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Grand Staircase is not a national park, but it functions like one. It was the first national monument given to the BLM in 1996. It covers 2 million acres and is almost as big as Yellowstone. It preserves, saves, and protects the dinosaur fossils, American Indian structures, plants, animals and rock structures. There, I

Aug. 4, we started our day by heading to Utah’s Bryce Canyon National Park. The most amazing thing we saw there were the hoodoos surrounding the canyon. There were also countless colored rocks. We spent about an hour on just one lookout. We also watched a video in the Visitor Center and bought lots of souvenirs. It is one of the most beautiful places in the world.

Cedar Breaks National Monument was our next stop. It was a cold and rainy day, but at least it didn’t take very long to see the park. We met a really nice ranger named Erin Cox, and I learned that the canyon walls there are as tall as three Statues of Liberty!

To be continued …

was, and hard points for the other components.

This one big piece comprises most of the car and much of its 1,200-pound weight. Other parts the printer made were the windshield frame, wheels, steering components, suspension parts and the roof. Hand finishing and trimming was needed.

In all, it looks much like an old fiberglass dune buggy body that uses a VW Beetle engine from the 1960s. The Strati, once assembled, could travel at speeds up to 50 mph. A bit slow for a car that cost $1.5 million to build.

The Oak Ridge National Laboratory underwrote the cost of this research and development project in the aim to “revolutionize how we move.”

It will be a revolution in manufacturing. For one thing, it could well be that some day there would be no factory for some vehicles. The vehicle would be printed at a local dealer. Parts from a bin would be put together by local people to make cars on demand. The dealer could sell different body styles without needing to stock an inventory. This could apply to bicycles, scooters and motorcycles, as well as building cars. I won’t go so far as to say

that this would vastly reduce the carbon footprint of manufacturing a vehicle, but it would eliminate factory overhead and labor expenses, and may bring more local jobs in more places — all theoretically lowering the purchase cost.

Since one of these big 3D printers is going to be quite expensive to make sturdy components of plastic reinforced with carbon fiber, there may be local enterprises that have several big printers to make such big parts for area businesses — making everything from furniture to furnaces. In a way, the technology is just in its infancy, despite all the remarkable things it can already do. Compare early giant cell phones to the tiny computer in your pocket now. We may come to all have 3D printers in our homes to build our meals.

I do believe 3D printing will revolutionize manufacturing. It’s already well on its way. What I’ll recommend in this column is that if you are a young person looking for a technology career with a bright future, look no further than 3D printing. Sign up now.
