Congressman talks to students about life in Washington

By LAUREN LEONE CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com MINOOKA – High school senior Gabby Muir has no plans of becoming a career politician, but there were things U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Channahon, said to her Tuesday that hit close to home.

“He said, ‘Chase your dreams, chase your passion. Don’t chase the money,’ and that was pretty inspirational,” the 18-year-old senior at Minooka Community High School said.

Muir was one of about 150 high school students who attended a speaking event Tuesday morning at the high school’s auditorium featuring Kinzinger. During the 50-minute discussion Kinzinger spoke to students about the responsibilities of being a U.S. congressman and students had the opportunity to ask questions.

Muir, who researched the 36-yearold Kankakee native’s background before attending the presentation, was pleased his speech wasn’t “all politics.”

“I was a little skeptical at first because I’m not really in politics and I don’t really identify as a Republican,

“He said, ‘Chase your dreams, chase your passion. Don’t chase the money,’ and that was pretty inspirational.”

Gabby Muir Minooka Community High School senior but he really surprised me with everything he was saying. He made it about more than which political party you’re in,” Muir said.

John Anians, a MCHS senior who’s taking an honors government class, said while Kinzinger’s speech didn’t push him toward a career Adam in politics, he did appreciate the congressKinzinger R-Channahon man’s pep talk with soon-to-be-graduating seniors like himself.

“He said if you believe in what you want to do in life is going to happen, it’ll happen,” he said.

Muir said she was happy to hear

Kinzinger cracking jokes with the audience, as well as his use of the election process to relate to high school seniors on the verge of graduating.

“You may run and lose, right? And every race, one person loses and one person wins. If it’s a big race, sometimes more people lose,” Kinzinger said. “Don’t be afraid to lose because sometimes with failure and defeat, you learn from those things. And don’t run against me, OK?” One student asked what Kinzinger thought to be the worst part of his gig in Congress.

“The schedule,” Kinzinger answered. “I have no free time. I like to have free time. It’s tough, right? It’s tough to maintain relationships, to see your family, because you’re always working. I didn’t realize how all-consuming the job actually is.”

Compton said his speech made her less anxious about life post-high school.

“It makes an actual career more viable, more real, because I didn’t realize somebody as real as him could make it that far,” Compton said. “I liked how it was never really his plan or his goal in life yet he got into it anyway.”

Tractor trailer rollover shuts down I-80

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com MINOOKA — A tractor trailer rolled over and shut down westbound Interstate 80 for much of Tuesday morning.

State Police Master Sgt. Fred Rivera said the crash happened at 7:49 a.m. just east of Ridge Road.

“We believe weather was a factor. Several other vehicles went into ditches in that area, so it looks like there was a slick spot on the roadway,” Rivera said.

No one was injured. An ambulance was called for the truck driver, but he did not require medical treatment after being extricated from the truck by firefighters.

Rivera said both westbound lanes were shut down for a half-hour after the crash. The entire roadway was reopened by about 10:30 a.m., according to a news release from Illinois State Police.

The accident was the only major incident on area roads and highways during the wintry conditions Tuesday morning.

BELOW-FREEZING TEMPS CLAIM WILLIE MAE Niece says ‘she loved to laugh. … She was well-loved’

By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Willie Mae White lived at the bus stop.

She would occasionally stay with her sister, or a friend, or a homeless shelter, or at a hospital. But she always seemed to return to the bus stop in the 200 block of North Chicago Street in downtown Joliet.

On Tuesday morning, Willie Mae White was found dead at that bus stop shelter, a victim of the below-freezing temperatures. She was 55 years old.

A preliminary autopsy confirmed Willie Mae died from cold exposure.

The temWillie Mae perature White fell to 1 degree Tuesday morning, with a wind chill well below zero.

Paramedics found her in the bus stop shelter at 2:30 a.m.

“She doesn’t have to worry about being cold anymore,” said Audrey Laye, who works downtown and knew Willie Mae. “I’m sorry it had to be like that. It’s sad. We all have to go. I wish it could have been under better circumstances.”

Willie Mae was as wellknown a figure on Chicago Street at the Chicken-nSpice restaurant – where people would frequently buy her food – and at the Illinois State Police building, whose employees would come out on their

John Goodwin talks about Willie Mae White, a homeless woman who died early Tuesday morning of cold exposure according to an initial autopsy. Goodwin met White when he was homeless. breaks to sit and talk to her.

Some of those employees even chased down a mugger who robbed Willie Mae one day at the bus stop. They caught the thief and reported him to the police, according to Laye, an information service specialist for the ISP. “We kind of watched out for her,” Laye said.

“It’s heartbreaking for anyone to be outside in the cold, especially the elderly. But I don’t know if she had choices. Sometimes we make the wrong ones.”

Battalion Chief Jeff Carey said Willie Mae became well-known to downtown ambulance crews during the last decade.

“People would see she was passed out or sleeping and were concerned enough to call for an ambulance,” Carey said.

Places to Go When it gets cold, there are places for people to go. Daybreak Center operates 24-hours a day, 365 days a year and provides emergency housing and supportive services to individuals and families who are homeless. Daybreak also acts as a warming center and will not turn people away during freezing temperatures.

Find them at 611 E. Cass St., Joliet, IL 60432 or call 815-774-4663.

“Sometimes she didn’t want to go, sometimes she did.”

Carey said Willie Mae White would occasionally tease and joke around with the firefighters who came to pick her up.

“She was never mean.

[Paramedics] didn’t have any problems with her,” Carey said. “It’s sad that there are places in the area for her to stay, but she didn’t want to go.

She just wanted to be left

alone.”

Willie Mae often refused transport to the hospital. She would leave friends’ homes who would bring her in from the cold.

Her sister couldn’t even convince her to stay at her home, according to Lorraine Edwards, Willie Mae’s niece.

“No one could really force her to stay,” Edwards said. “We always let her know we were here for her. She had some mental

problems, but she knew how to take care of herself.

“She loved to be outside.”

Edwards said that Willie Mae would stay at the house for a while. Then when Edwards’ grandparents came back from work one day, Willie Mae would be gone, likely back to the bus stop on Chicago Street.

Edwards said Willie Mae, who originally is from Louisiana, used to dance, and she loved telling stories about her boyfriends.

“She had a bubbly personality,” Edwards said.

“She was a sarcastic person. She loved to laugh. …

She was well-loved.”

But no matter what her family said, they couldn’t persuade Willie Mae to stay home.

John Goodwin, who

works at a convenience store at 150 N. Chicago St., met Willie Mae four years ago when he, too, was homeless in Joliet.

“She was a nice person,” Goodwin said. “She was a little bit on the off side. She had her problems, definitely. I know she stayed at the shelter for a while.”

Willie Mae would occasionally come into Goodwin’s store, sometimes buying food, and was sometimes given it.

“She would always pay me back. Always,” Goodwin said. “She was a very happy person. Sometimes she would just sit out [by the bus stop] and sing.”

Pat Reimer, manager of Chicken-n-Spice, said she’s seen the paramedics called to the bus stop a number of times when Willie Mae had collapsed.

She occasionally sold food to Willie Mae when she had enough money to eat and let her use the bathroom when she needed.

Reimer said she could see Willie Mae’s health deteriorating over time.

She would spend weeks and weeks just sitting at that bus stop, Reimer said.

“She became a victim of that little, tiny bus stop,” she said.

A myriad of factors – her health, her stubbornness, her past choices – could have been reasons Willie Mae stayed at that bus stop. No one on Chicago Street knows for sure.

But many who knew her believed she was a soul worth saving.

Candidates begin race for Joliet mayor

By FELIX SARVER

“Politically, it may not be the wisest move to put yourself on the map 15 months ahead of an election, but I don’t consider myself a politician. I’m a man of my word.

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Councilman Robert O’Dekirk made his campaign for mayor official Tuesday, more than a year ahead of the April 2015 election.

His announcement means that at least two candidates in the race will be on the Joliet City Council, with the opportunity to debate issues for months before the election.

Mayor Thomas Giarrante, who also serves on the City Council, has said he too is running for the office.

“Politically, it may not be the wisest move to put yourself on the map 15 months ahead of an election, but I don’t consider myself a politician,” O’Dekirk said. “I’m a man of my word.”

O’Dekirk said he decided to make his announcement Tuesday after several people asked if he was going to run for mayor and he was mentioned in a Herald-News article as a likely candidate.

Councilmen Larry Hug and John Gerl said they don’t predict the presence of both candidates will become an issue during meetings.

“I would like to think whether it’s just the mayor or Councilman O’Dekirk or whoever else [is running for mayor] … whoever it is, they’ll handle it professionally and they’ll know the right time for politics and the right time for governance,” Hug said.

RIGHT: Joliet councilman Bob O’Dekirk announces Tuesday his intent to run for Joliet mayor outside police headquarters.

ABOVE: Joliet Mayor Thomas Giarrante works in his office on Tuesday.

On Tuesday, O’Dekirk stood at the steps of the Joliet Police Depart-

ment to announce his candidacy.

He previously was a

Joliet police officer and now is a private attorney in the city.

O’Dekirk commented on his experience as a council member since 2011, the same year Giarrante was elected mayor.

“Here I have witnessed that new ideas are less important than old habits,” he said. “That cooperation is another word for

being a rubber stamp, and planning for our future is as simple as raising your taxes and fees.”

O’Dekirk said his mayoral agenda would include building relationships among city officials, promoting economic development and fostering openness to a new way of thinking.

Giarrante, asked Monday about O’Dekirk’s pending announcement, said he has no problem with O’Dekirk running but did not plan to elaborate on his plans for a second term until a later time.

Giarrante defended himself against O’Dekirk’s criticism, saying he continues to bring businesses to the city.

O’Dekirk on Tuesday said the city has no economic development plan or even an economic development director.

One audience member, Willie Sellers, asked O’Dekirk if he would include people of poorer economic backgrounds in talks on how to redevelop the city.

Sellers has been an advocate for stronger minority participation in jobs and contracts for

public construction projects in Joliet.

“You have to include everyone,” O’Dekirk said.

“There’s not two sides of the town. We’re all one … if there’s something in the east side that benefits the East Side, it benefits everyone.”

If elected mayor, O’Dekirk said he would continue his role as managing partner of Carlson, Zelazo & O’Dekirk law firm but would focus more of his time as mayor.

O’Dekirk has been at odds with Giarrante at times.

He has been critical of city’s condemnation case to take ownership of the Evergreen Terrace apartment complex, which has been around for roughly nine years. Giarrante supports the Evergreen Terrace case.

O’Dekirk has been critical of the $2 million spent on legal fees and has said that money could be spent on police, fire or public works services.

He’s also criticized the mayor for publicly announcing his call for an investigation of leaked documents in the Evergreen Terrace case.

Joliet enters agreement to promote tourism

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – City officials are strengthening their partnership with a destination marketing agency to continue promoting tourism in Joliet.

On Tuesday, city council members agreed to enter a three-year agreement with the Heritage Corridor Convention and Visitors Bureau for marketing and tourism promotion of the city at the annual cost of $50,000.

City officials also will contribute $45,000 toward annual summer media marketing campaigns and $35,000 to match a grant to promote Route 66.

Under the agreement, the conventions and visitors bureau will take on several initiatives to promote tourism in the area, such as seasonal staffing of the city’s visitor center on Bluff Street, working with community partners on the city’s annual marketing campaign and offering consultation with city staff.

Bob Navarro, president and CEO of the convention and visitors bureau, made the case for promoting tourism at the city council meeting.

“Tourism is economic development,” he said.

“Promoting your destination is probably economic development’s best kept secret because you already

“Tourism is economic development.

Promoting your destination is probably economic development’s best kept secret because you already have infrastructure in place to promote the assets that you have.”

Bob Navarro President and CEO of Heritage Corridor Convention and Visitors Bureau have the infrastructure in place to promote the assets that you have.”

He said in 2012, the tourism industry in the state was almost a $31 billion business. Travel expenditures on transportation, lodging and attractions in Will County brought in more than $600 million, he said.

“Tourism in the county is definitely a signficant driver of economic impact,” he said.

With the $45,000 contributions for the summer media marketing campaign, he said the conventions and visitors bureau staff would visit with community partners such as local casinos, museums and malls for financial as-

sistance with marketing campaigns.

As an example of the city’s success with tourism, Navarro said the city’s annual Star Wars Days event has the second-largest costumed character attendance for a Star Wars event in the U.S., with almost 5,000 people attending last year’s event.

Councilman Jim McFarland said he would be interested in seeing an office from the conventions and visitors bureau moved to a transportation center in downtown Joliet, so people could see what Joliet had to offer.

“Let’s capture the folks that are coming to Joliet in this transportation hub,” he said. “We’re going to have the bus terminal there and we’re going to have trains coming here.”

Other items city council members voted on: • City council members unanimously approved of filling vacancies for two city police officer and two firefighter positions.

• City council members also unanimously approved an ordinance declaring properties at 302 Romayne Ave., 222 N. Eastern Ave., 209 Union Ave., and 1903 Wild Rose Trail as public nuisances because they are structurally unsafe. City officials may demolish the properties or rehabilitate them.

Romeoville moving forward with Uptown Square redevelopment “This is a really nice image that Romeoville is presenting with the sports complex.

I’m really excited about it.”

By ERIC SCHELKOPF eschelkopf@shawmedia.com ROMEOVILLE – Business owner Dick Valentine thinks that the village’s Uptown Square project will help create more vibrancy on that stretch of Route 53.

“It creates more of a place to come to, a destination point,” said Valentine, owner and agent of the State Farm office in the Route 66 Plaza along Route 53.

His office is near the Uptown Square project, which is being developed on the former site of Spartan Square Plaza at Route 53 and Phelps Avenue.

The village acquired the site in March 2008 with the plan of creating a new downtown mixed-use development on the site.

Demolition of the Spartan Square building was in January 2013.

Romeoville village trustees in December approved a five-year contract with LaGrange-based Indoor Sports Management Group LLC to manage the 76,000-square-foot Romeoville Athletic and Event Center that was built as part of the Uptown Square project. The village-owned center is set to open soon.

“This is a really nice image that Romeoville is presenting with the sports

Romeoville recently approved a contract with a private firm to manage the village-owned Athletic and Event Center on the former site of Spartan Square Plaza at Route 53 and Phelps Avenue. A grocery store also will be part of the Uptown Square redevelopment project. complex,” Valentine said.

“I’m really excited about it.”

The center will house two indoor soccer fields and two IHSA basketball courts/volleyball courts.

Romeoville Mayor John Noak has said that some of the athletic organizations looking to use the facility are involved in indoor soccer, basketball, baseball and volleyball.

Funding for the project is through a tax increment financing district.

Once a municipality creates a TIF, its property assessment is frozen and new or increased taxes

generated by improvements are used to pay for improvements or other development incentives.

The TIF district is comprised of businesses within the downtown district

and the majority of the Route 53 corridor. Residential property taxes are not a component of the project.

The Uptown Square project took another step forward last week after village trustees approved a development agreement with BG Investments LLC to construct a building that would house a grocery store and delicatessen called Franconi’s and a Fat Ricky’s restaurant, which sells pizza, burgers, chicken, pasta and other items.

Plans are for the current Fat Ricky’s restaurant off Route 53 to close and move into the new building.

The village is offering BG Investments Investments up to $650,000 in incentives.

To receive the incentives, the grocery store must open by Jan. 15, 2015.

IDOT selects qualified teams to build Illiana ‘Real interest’ shown in public-private expressway venture

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS

Shortlisted teams:

lleonecross@shawmedia.com The Illinois Department of Transportation has deemed four teams of private developers qualified to bid on the Illinois portion of the proposed Illiana Expressway.

The project, still awaiting federal approval, would link Interstate 55 in Wilmington with I-65 near Lowell, Ind. IDOT officials gave interested companies from Nov. 8 to Dec. 19 to submit their qualifications to design, build, finance, operate and maintain the 47mile tollway.

The announcement

Five teams submitted to IDOT. The four teams shortlisted are as follows: • ILLIANA WEST MOBILITY PARTNERS, with Cintra Infraestructuras, S.A. providing equity and Ferrovial Agroman U.S. Corp. and White Construction, Inc. serving as the lead contractors.

• ILLIOIS CORRIDOR CONNECTION GROUP, with ACS Infrastructure Development Inc. and Fengate Capital Management, Ltd. providing equity and Dragados USA, Inc., F.H. Paschen, S.N. Nielson & Associates, LLC, and William Charles Construction Company, LLC serving as lead contractors.

• ILLINOIS MOBILITY PARTNERS, with equity provided by Fluor Enterprises, Inc. and Plenary Group USA Ltd. and Fluor Enterprises Inc., Lane Construction Corporation and Granite Construction Co. serving as lead contractors.

• WM ILLINOIS-ILLIANA PARTNERS, LLC, with equity provided by Meridiam Infrastructure and Walsh Investors, LLC, with Walsh Construction LLC serving as the lead contractor.

Saturday comes about a month after the state agency closed the request for qualifications. Five teams submitted. Proponents say

the $1.3 billion expressway could reduce truck traffic on local roads while improving safety and travel times while opponents

have filed a federal lawsuit, arguing the expressway’s construction will damage natural wildlife areas.

John Greuling, presi-

dent and chief executive of the Will County Center for Economic Development, said he’s pleased with the response.

Having four developer teams in the running shows there’s a “real interest” in the public-private partnership, Greuling said.

“It’s an innovative way of doing public infrastructure because of the lack of financial wherewithal from the state,” Grueling said. “The fact that they got more than two is important. There’s not a lot of groups that can do a $1.3 billion, 50-mile road.”

companies can bid on the project. Grueling said he does not know when IDOT will award a deal, but believes it could be as early as the end of this year with construction slated for spring 2015.

Approval from the Federal Highway Administration is still needed before the tollway can be built.

Hearings are expected to begin late February to allow comments on the environmental impact of the project, but Grueling said a specific date and place has not been decided. The findings will be submitted to FHA for approval, which could in March.

Local law enforcement legend dies Georgantas pioneered anti-drug program

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Robert Georgantas, a pioneer of modern law enforcement in Will County during a 30-year-career with the state police, died Tuesday. He was 91.

Georgantas grew up on Wheeler Avenue as the oldest of eight children and left high school to work full time, his daughter, Cindy, recalled. After serving in the Pacific during World War II, Georgantas returned to Joliet and married Gloria Fracaro. The couple opened Cindy’s Sweet Shop downtown shortly before Georgantas joined the state police in 1949.

8POLICE REPORTS Note to readers: Information in Police Reports is obtained from local police departments and the Will County Sheriff’s Office. Individuals listed in Police Reports who have been charged with a crime have not been proven guilty in court.

• Phillip J. Dockins, 21, of the 400 block of North Hickory Street, was arrested by Joliet police Tuesday on charges of burglary and drug possession.

While much of his career focused on investigations, Georgantas also pioneered an anti-drug program with entertainer Art Linkletter.

He served as a bodyguard when Japanese Emperor Hirohito visited Will County in October 1973 and was given a silver cigarette case from the emperor.

In 1965, Georgantas established the Police Chief’s Association of Will County to formalize networking between police departments and served as the organization’s first president. He retired with the rank of major in 1978.

“He was a giant in the arena of public safety here,” Elwood Chief Fred Hayes

said. Georgantas was a regular guest at Hayes’ house to visit his late father, Fred, a Romeoville police chief.

“He was always sharp [and] showed young officers how to carry yourself,” Hayes said.

Cindy Georgantas remembered another police chief recently told her “he didn’t like [her] father, but he had to respect him.”

“He told cops the same thing he told me and my brother, Robert Jr., ‘Be a person of action, not reaction,’ ” she said.

Georgantas was appointed to the Will County Merit Commission in 1987 and served for 25 years authorizing hiring, firing and

“He was well-aware of what it takes to be a policeman when there weren’t

many members on the commission with a law enforcement background,” Sheriff Paul Kaupas said.

Kaupas said Georgantas established college degree requirements for supervising officers during his time as commission chairman.

Hayes and Cindy Georgantas believe next month’s chiefs associa-

tion meeting will be the first one Georgantas will not attend. He also hosted a “steak fry” for members every September at his Wilmington property.

Cindy Georgantas operates a private detective agency, and said her father assisted on cases and offered advice on investigations until the end of his life.

Georgantas was hospitalized last week after falling ill and died in hospice from carbon dioxide buildup, his daughter said.

Georgantas is survived by his two children, eight grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.

A memorial service will be at 10 a.m. Feb. 1 at St. Joseph Church in Lockport with a mass to follow.

Marijuana found after early morning car chase

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com SHOREWOOD – Police reportedly found an ounce of marijuana after a car chase early Saturday that ended in Crest Hill.

Cmdr. Eric Allen said about 2 a.m. an officer found Brett S. Rathburn, 24, in a green Toyota

Illinois Concealed Carry Permit

Corolla stopped in the roadway on Route 59 north of Jefferson Street. Rathburn responded “very sluggishly” when the officer tried to get his attention, but drove away when the officer moved his squad behind the Corolla and turned the emergency lights on, Allen said.

Police followed the Corolla

east into Joliet and Crest Hill at “regular speed limits until the end,” Allen said. The pursuit stopped when Rathburn lost control and struck a tree at Gaylord Road and Theodore Street.

Allen said Rathburn initially refused transport to the hospital, but later complained of shoulder pain and was taken to Saint Jo-

seph Medical Center. Upon his release Monday, he was arrested and booked into the county jail.

Rathburn, of the 1800 block of Cecily Drive in Joliet, is charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, aggravated fleeing from police, resisting arrest, delivery of marijuana and marijuana possession.

EYE Joliet honored for environmental efforts CARE LED lights and more recycling make the city a greener place

By ERIC SCHELKOPF eschelkopf@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Motorists who drive through Joliet every day might not even notice the LED lights on traffic signals.

But the energy-conserving lights are one reason Joliet received a 2013 State of Illinois Governor’s Sustainability Award.

The awards were presented in October by the Illinois Sustainable Technology Center, a unit of the Prairie Research Institute at the University of Illinois, to recognize local governments and private companies for their efforts to protect the environment and improve the economy.

Joliet achievements include improvements to the city’s recycling program as well as retrofitting 57 traffic signals with LED lights.

The city has seen recycling rates increase since launching a new garbage/ recycling program in 2011.

Using a $519,000 energy efficiency and conservation block grant from the U.S. Department of Energy, the city partnered with Waste Management of Illinois to provide every household with new 96-gallon wheeled recycling containers at no charge and introduce an every-other-week collection schedule.

The first full year of the program was in 2012.

Compared to 2010, there was a 34 percent increase in recycling and a 12 percent reduction in garbage going into landfills.

“We are pleased with the increase in recyclables,” said Kendall Jack-

“We are pleased with the increase in recyclables. The volume of recyclables has increased, which results in less of an impact at the landfill.”

Kendall Jackson Joliet’s planning and economic development director

son, Joliet’s planning and economic development director. “The volume of recyclables has increased, which results in less of an impact at the landfills.”

The program also has helped to reduce the amount of litter on city streets.

Prior to the new program, residents used 18-gallon tubs that did not have lids.

“On a windy day, you would have stuff blowing all over the place,” Jackson said.

Residents do not have to separate their recyclables. All recyclable material – including paper, glass, plastic and aluminum – are put in one container and later separated at a recycling sorting center.

According to city figures, the amount of garbage residents threw away decreased from 53,511 tons in 2010 to 46,949 tons in 2012.

At the same time, the amount residents recycled increased from 8,205 tons in 2010 to 10,960 tons in 2012.

The award also spotlighted the city’s efforts at energy savings.

That included a project to replace incandescent traffic signal bulbs with more energy-effi-

cient LED traffic signal modules.

“There is less of a need to replace bulbs all the time,” Jackson said.

“They last longer.”

The old incandescent bulbs lasted up to two years, as opposed to LEDs, which last from seven to 10 years.

The city was also recognized for identifying energy efficiency and conservation opportunities at city-owned buildings.

Those efforts included purchasing and installing a replacement broiler for the city’s motor maintenance division on North Chicago Street. The broiler was more than 15 years old and was not energy efficient.

Other efforts included purchasing and installing a replacement chiller at City Hall on West Jefferson Street and replacing windows and doors at the city-owned Union Station on East Jefferson Street, which serves Metra and Amtrak.

A STEADY DIET OF PREVENTION Because age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness among Americans aged 65 years and older, and there is no definitive cure for the disease, most people will want to do everything they can do to avoid developing it. As far as prevention is concerned, recent research indicates that consumption of foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids may protect against development of AMD. According to the study, people who regularly ate fish and nuts were less likely to develop AMD, particularly if they avoided foods with high linoleic-acid content (corn oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, and grapeseed oil).

Researchers found that one serving of fish per week was enough to lower the incidence of early macular degeneration.

In some people, AMD advances so slowly that vision loss does not occur for a long time. If you think you’re at risk for AMD, and haven’t had a medical eye examination in the past two years, you may want to call VISION CORRECTION CENTER. Our entire staff is dedicated to good eye health. We are an ophthalmic practice dedicated to the care and surgical treatment of your eyes. We stress preventive health care for the entire family. Protect your vision - it’s priceless!.

2 water wells in repair; 2 serving Channahon village

By JEANNE MILLSAP Shaw Media Correspondent CHANNAHON – Following an emergency situation over the weekend, the village is without two of its four water wells. The two remaining systems are operating fine, though, according to Public Works Director Ed Dolezal, and should be able to handle the water needs of the village, with diligence to aquifer levels, until the others are brought back online.

Dolezal reported the news to trustees Monday evening at the Channahon Village Board meeting. The town has four wells – two deep and two shallow. One of the deep wells, number four, already had been taken off-line for scheduled maintenance when the village’s other deep well, number six, went down Sunday, blowing the main breaker.

An initial probe indicated the problem is likely with the motor itself or a cable that runs to the motor. Plans are for the motor to be pulled out of the ground this week for repairs. It could take several days for the work to be completed and the system

to begin pumping water again, Dolezal said, as water quality tests must be performed after the repairs are made.

The same well had a pump that “failed catastrophically” about six months ago and was replaced. Dolezal said the two deep wells together produce about 80 percent of Channahon’s water needs, at 2,000 gallons per minute combined. The two shallow water wells together produce only 200 gallons per minute.

The downed wells normally supply water to residents and businesses west of the DuPage River, and alternative water sources are currently supplying that region. Those who live between the river and Interstate 55 will have the same Channahon water sources, as will those east of the interstate, who receive Joliet water.

The Village Board approved an emergency action that was not on the agenda for repair of one of the off-line wells, waiving public bid to enlist Layne Christensen Company to handle the work.

Also at the meeting, Ni-

cole Norris, Channahon Economic Development Corporation’s first intern, was recognized. The position was approved by the Village Board in November and is of no cost to the village. Norris is interning for college credit at the University of Saint Francis.

“The position was created for organizing purposes,” Village Trustee Scott Slocum, who is CEDC executive committee director, said after the meeting. “We need someone to keep us on track and take care of administrative duties and marketing. The goal is to reach out to existing businesses and let them know we are here and how we can help make them stronger.”

Slocum said Norris also will help with the organization’s goals of attracting new business to town.

Norris, who is from Plainfield, is majoring in business administration with a concentration in marketing. She said her first two weeks have been spent working on a comprehensive communication plan, website improvement, and a CEDC event calendar.

Police can suspend licenses for unpaid parking tickets

By CHRISTINA CHAPMAN–VAN YPEREN cchapman@shawmedia.com MORRIS – People violating the city of Morris’ parking regulations repeatedly are now risking suspension of their driver’s license.

The Morris City Council approved a new ordinance Tuesday that if a person has 10 or more unpaid parking tickets, Morris police can request the Secretary of State’s Office to suspend their driver’s license.

Currently, if a person receives a parking ticket they have 14 days to pay the $10 ticket. If after two weeks it is not paid, they are notified the fine goes up to $60. The violator also has the opportunity to fight the ticket in court.

“If the person doesn’t pay the fine or show up to the court date issued, there is a judgment against them,” said Morris police Chief Brent Dite after the meeting.

This process is done repeatedly up to 10 times.

With the approval of the new ordinance Tuesday, after the 10th ticket, the city can send a letter to the Secretary of State to have their license suspended until all the fines are paid to the city.

Although this is not an abundant problem for

“If the person doesn’t pay the ine or show up to the court date issued, there is a judgment against them.”

Brent Dite Morris police chief the city of Morris, it is not unlikely for a violator to have 10 unpaid tickets, Dite said. This many unpaid tickets is equivalent to $600 owed to the city.

Once a person reaches 10 unpaid parking tickets, they will receive another notification stating that if he or she does not pay the fines, the city will notify the Secretary of State to have their license suspended. They also are offered another hearing opportunity to challenge the allegations.

“It’s a good tool to give incentive to pay the parking tickets and get the license back,” said City Attorney Scott Belt, during the Judiciary and License Committee meeting held before city council.

This hearing is conducted by a hearing officer appointed by the mayor.

Mayor Richard Kopczick said during the committee meeting that he is looking into appointing someone

internally to this job.

The violator also will be given the opportunity to request an administrative hearing with the Secretary of State.

Once the fines are paid, the chief of police will send another letter to the Secretary of State stating the money owed is paid and the suspension can be lifted. The reinstatement of the driver’s license has to be done by the Secretary of State.

“I think its a great thing,” said Alderman Randy Larson during the council meeting. “When I was on Judiciary and License, we tried to upgrade the system. People are still not listening so I think this is the right thing to do.”

In 2011, the city started a new citation program that raised the fine. Previously the city’s fine for a parking violation was $5, if it was paid in 48 hours, and it went to $25 after that.

But it was no longer deterring people.

So in 2011 it raised the parking fine to $10, if it’s paid in 14 days, and then to $60 after the two weeks.

At that time, the process was changed to include a hearing process and so people could just pay their fines at the Municipal Services Facility or by mail.

Previously, they had to go to court to pay the fine or fight the ticket.

if you need to lose 30 lbs, 50 lbs or more, then this important message is for you. Now we understand you’re probably skeptical about weight loss products. You’ve probably tried just about everything. And this is all the more reason to read further, because you’ll discover that this is not a typical ad about weight loss. Instead, we’re looking for real people like you to be part of a very limited group that gets to try a revolutionary breakthrough weight loss program as part of our pre-market development activities.

You may be thinking . . . pre-market? Am I going to be a guinea pig test subject? Absolutely not.

Our products are independently tested by Universities in Southern California to assure they deliver amazing results. Then as a separate step, we gather a group of real people that try the product and provide us honest opinions about the product, which is what this message is about. Joliet is the only city selected for this pre-market activity, thus this is an exclusive opportunity for you. Why was Joliet selected?

We believe people with Midwestern values provide honest feedback, and that is what we are looking for.

Also, program your poison control center’s number in your phone: 800.222.1222.

To learn more, visit UpandAway.org

In partnership with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)

Will the product work for me? Will I lose weight and size? Absolutely YES!! The program was designed for people that need to lose 30 pounds or more, and addresses two key issues that have caused you to struggle with weight loss. First, based upon our University tests, we discovered that as people gain weight, their bodies become less and less eficient in saturating their blood with oxygen.

Why is this important? Because: fat will only burn when you have oxygen present. And unfortunately, the heavier you are, the less oxygen your blood carries making it increasingly more dificult to lose weight. To get your body burning fat eficiently, oxygenation is the key. Our innovative program takes only 8 minutes and is based on a unique accelerated breathing technique combined with specialized stationary exercises designed to do just that . . . enhance your oxygenation. It’s called Oxygen 8. There’s no equipment involved. There’s no jumping around . . . you’re stationary . . . and it’s only 8 minutes.

Secondly, we all know that eating plays a role in losing weight. But no one wants a highly

restrictive diet or a crash diet. To be successful, you need to stay full and satisied. Which is why we’ve combined the Oxygen 8 exercises with our research based High Volume Eating. You’ll learn about dozens and dozens of foods and delicious recipes that you can eat as much as you want. Plus, No Foods Are Off Limits (like brownies and desserts). Instead, you’ll learn the secrets of staying completely satisied while the pounds are melting away. And naturally, each person’s results will vary depending upon your starting weight, but we know you’ll be amazed at your results.

By participating you will receive the product which you’ll use in the comfort of your own home. At the start of the program, we will photograph you and then track your results. And each month we will photograph you again and provide you ongoing support as you’re losing the weight. Some participants will be selected and ilmed for use on a television commercial where they express their honest opinions.

We are holding short information meetings in Joliet on January 25th and 26th where you’ll learn about the product and what is involved.

We have very limited space and the slots ill up very quickly. We’re only interested in participants that truly wish to lose pounds, inches and transform their body. There are no fees or costs, and you will not be pitched to buy anything at this meeting or at any time if you are selected to participate. The slots will ill up quickly, so call now to reserve your space.

Chicago archdiocese hid decades of abuse

By RACHEL ZOLL and TAMMY WEBBER The Associated Press CHICAGO – Top leaders at the Archdiocese of Chicago helped hide the sexual abuse of children as they struggled to contain a growing crisis, according to thousands of pages of internal documents that also raise new questions about how Cardinal Francis George handled the allegations even after the church adopted reforms.

The documents, released through settlements between attorneys for the archdiocese and victims, describe how priests for decades were moved from parish to parish while the archdiocese

hid the clerics’ histories from the public, often with the approval of the late Cardinals John Cody and Joseph Bernardin.

Although the abuse documented in the files occurred before George became archbishop in 1997, many victims did not come forward until after he was appointed and after U.S. bishops pledged in 2002 to keep all accused priests out of ministry.

George delayed removing the Rev. Joseph R. Bennett, despite learning that the priest had been accused of sexually abusing girls and boys decades earlier. Even the board the cardinal appointed to help him evaluate abuse claims advised George that Bennett should be removed.

“I realize this creates a rather awkward situation, but I believe I need to reflect on this matter further,” George wrote in a Nov. 7, 2005 letter to an archdiocese child protection official. Also against the advice of his board, George had Bennett monitored by another priest who was a friend and who vacationed with Bennett.

Allegations against Bennett continued well after 2002. He has denied any wrongdoing in his communications with the archdiocese, but was forced out of ministry on Feb. 3, 2006, according to the newly public documents.

George tried to get another priest, Norbert Maday, released early from a

Wisconsin prison, where he was serving time after a 1994 conviction for molesting two boys, documents show.

He also has apologized for how he handled allegations against former priest Daniel McCormack, who pleaded guilty in 2007 to abusing five children and whose case prompted an internal investigation of how the archdiocese responds to abuse claims.

“The issue is not when the abuse happened; the issue is what they did once it was reported,” said Chicago attorney Marc Pearlman, who has represented about 200 victims of clergy abuse in the Chicago area.

While disturbing stories of clergy sexual abuse have wrenched the Roman

Catholic Church across the globe, the newly released documents offer the broadest look yet into how one of its largest and most prominent American dioceses responded to the scandal, even years after the abuse occurred.

The documents, posted online Tuesday by victims’ attorneys, cover only 30 of the at least 65 clergy for whom the archdiocese says it has substantiated claims of child abuse. Vatican documents related to the 30 cases were not included, under the negotiated terms of the disclosure.

Victims’ attorneys say they’re working to get files on the other 35 priests.

The files are being released as George, a 77-year-old cancer survi-

vor, awaits permission from Pope Francis to retire. Naming a successor for George will be the pope’s first major appointment in the U.S. church.

In a letter distributed to parishes last week, George apologized for the abuse, and said the disclosures are an attempt to help victims heal.

The more than 6,000 pages include internal communications between church officials, disturbing testimony about specific abuses, meeting schedules where allegations were discussed and letters from anguished parishioners. The names of victims and details considered private under mental health laws were redacted.

NEWS BRIEFS 1 dead, man in custody after Purdue shooting WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – A man opened fire Tuesday inside a basement classroom at Purdue University, killing one person and prompting officials to send a text alert to students telling them to seek shelter, police and the university said.

The suspect, who is believed to have targeted the man who was shot, surrendered to a police officer within minutes of the attack at the Electrical Engineering Building, Purdue Police Chief John Cox said.

Students described a chaotic scene as the initial report of the shooting hit around noon on the campus in West Lafayette, about 60 miles northwest of Indianapolis.

The identities of the suspect and victim were not immediately confirmed. Cox said the suspect entered the Electrical Engineering Building, “took the actions that he took” and “immediately left the facility without any other interaction that we’re aware of.”

Cox said the suspect wasn’t immediately cooperating with investigators. He said some people witnessed the shooting, but he didn’t specify whether the attack happened during a class.

Christie takes oath amid scandal TRENTON, N.J. – Gov. Chris Christie sought to turn back the clock as he was sworn into a second term Tuesday, saying voters gave him a mandate in November to

“stay the course” and put aside partisan differences, even as Democrats ramped up an investigation into whether his administration abused its power.

Christie, considered a likely Republican presidential candidate in 2016, was inaugurated amid a snowstorm that forced him to cancel an evening celebration on Ellis Island, and then gave an 18-minute address that dwelled on his 22-point election victory in the fall. He did not mention the investigations that have already led to the firing or departure of four top aides or associates.

The people making up a broad coalition that returned him to office, he said, “have demanded that we stay the course they have

helped set.”

“It was the largest and loudest voice of affirmation that the people of our state have given to any direction in three decades,” Christie said, noting priorities including the economy, education and improving access to jobs for recovering drug addicts. “We have no moral option but to heed the voice of the voters, and that is exactly what I intend to do.”

His speech came less than an hour after Democratic lawmakers announced they were consolidating twin probes into allegations that aides engineered traffic jams in September in the community of Fort Lee as political retribution, apparently against the town’s mayor for not endorsing his re-election bid.

Progress won’t end tensions for Iran, West DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – The U.N. decision to revoke Iran’s invitation to this week’s Syrian peace talks almost as quickly as it came was a reminder that the path to reconciliation between Tehran and the West is hardly a smooth one. Progress on the issue of Iran’s nuclear program is no guarantee of an easing of tensions in the multiple disputes between the two sides.

Iran took a major step in defrosting relations with the West over its nuclear program by halting high-level uranium enrichment Monday as part of a landmark interim deal that wins it an easing of some economic sanctions.

But the very same day

on the Syria front, Tehran showed it was sticking by its key ally, Syrian President Bashar Assad, by refusing to endorse the premise of the peace talks — a call for the creation of a transitional Syrian government.

The flap over the invitation to the talks, which begin Wednesday in the Swiss resort town of Montreux, left both sides clearly stung.

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said the revoking of the invitation by U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon, only a day after he issued it, was “behavior below his dignity,” accusing him of bending to pressure from “the U.S. and some groups whose hands were smeared with the blood of the Syrian people.”

Mixed earnings hold back U.S. stocks

NEW YORK – The Standard & Poor’s 500 index logged a small gain Tuesday on a mixed day for the stock market.

Healthcare giant Johnson & Johnson slipped after it warned that pressure to keep prices low would likely mean slightly lower profits than forecast.

Delta Air Lines gained after reporting a better-than-expected profit in the fourth quarter as fares and traffic rose.

Company earnings were the main focus for investors Tuesday as there were no major economic releases. So far, the stock market has failed to get a big lift from earnings reports and investors appear to be assessing the results more critically than they did a year ago.

BP seeks rehearing in oil spill settlement NEW ORLEANS – BP on Tuesday asked an appeals court to review a ruling upholding a multibillion-dollar settlement to compensate victims of the company’s 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

In a filing with the full 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, BP argued that a divided three-judge panel from the court erred earlier this month when it affirmed a U.S. district judge’s approval of the company’s settlement with a team of private plaintiffs’ lawyers.

By CAROLE FELDMAN The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Higher-income Americans and some legally married same-sex couples are likely to feel the biggest hits from tax law changes when they file their federal returns in the next few months. Taxpayers also will have a harder time taking medical deductions.

In other changes for the 2013 tax year, the Alternative Minimum Tax has been patched – permanently – to prevent more middle-income people from being drawn in, and there’s a simpler way to compute the home office deduction.

Tax rate tables and the standard deduction have been adjusted for inflation, as has the maximum contribution to retirement accounts, including 401(k) plans and Individual Retirement Accounts.

The provisions were set by Congress last January as part of legislation to avert the fiscal cliff of tax increases and spending cuts. “We finally got some certainty for this year,” said Greg Rosica, a contributing author to Ernst & Young’s “EY Tax Guide 2014.”

Nevertheless, the filing season is being delayed because of the two-week government shutdown last October. The Internal Revenue Service says it needs the extra time to ensure that systems are in place and working. People will be able to start filing returns Jan. 31, a week and a half later than the original Jan. 21.

“People who are used to filing early in order to get a quick refund are just going to have to wait,” said Barbara Weltman, a contributing editor to “J.K. Lasser’s Your Income Tax 2014.”

No change in the April 15 deadline, however. That’s set by law and will remain in place, the IRS says.

The tax legislation passed at the start of 2013 permanently extended the Bush-era tax cuts for

The United States income tax is a pay-as-you-go tax, which means that tax must be paid as you earn or receive your income during the year, the IRS says. most people, but also added a top marginal tax rate of 39.6 percent for those at higher incomes – $400,000 for single filers, $450,000 for married couples filing jointly and $425,000 for heads of household.

On top of that, higher-income taxpayers could see their itemized deductions and personal exemptions phased out and pay higher capital gains taxes – 20 percent for some taxpayers. And there are new taxes for them to help pay for health care reform.

There are different income thresholds for each of these new taxes.

An additional 0.9 percent Medicare tax, for example, kicks in on earnings over $250,000 for married couples filing jointly and $200,000 for singles and heads of household. Same for a 3.8 percent tax on investment income.

But the phase-out of personal exemptions and deductions doesn’t begin until $300,000 for married couples filing jointly and $250,000 for singles.

Taxpayers who didn’t plan could find themselves with big tax bills come April 15 – and perhaps

penalties for under-withholding.

“It’s a snowball effect,” said Dave Du Val, TaxAudit.com’s vice president of customer advocacy.

Confused?

“The complexities of the tax code are only affecting those of us trying to read it,” National Taxpayer Advocate Nina Olson said in an interview. Tax software makes a lot of those complexities invisible to most people.

As a result, taxpayers might not realize they’re being helped by a wide array of deductions and credits. “They have no idea of the benefits they are getting through the tax code,” she said.

One simplification: Many investors will find it easier to report stock sales if the 1099-B forms they receive contain key details of the sale and the correct basis for computing gains and losses.

The IRS processed more than 147 million tax returns in 2013, down slightly from the previous year. More than 109 million taxpayers received refunds that averaged $2,744, also slightly less than in 2012.

The upward trend of electronic filing continued, with more than

83 percent of returns being filed online. The biggest jump, 4.6 percent, was among people who used software programs to do their own taxes.

The IRS is continuing to offer its Free File option, which is available to taxpayers with adjusted gross incomes of $58,000 or less.

These taxpayers can use brandname software to file their taxes at no cost. Some states also participate. The agency also has an option for taxpayers of all incomes – Free File Fillable Forms – which does basic calculations but does not offer the guidance that a software package would.

For the 2013 tax year, the personal exemption is $3,900. The standard deduction is $12,200 for married taxpayers filing jointly, $6,100 for singles, and $8,950 for heads of household.

Many credits and deductions were extended for 2013, including several for education. Among them: the American Opportunity Credit of up to $2,500 per student for tuition and fees and deductions for student loan interest and tuition-related expenses. Many of these are phased out at higher income levels.

Schoolteachers will still be able to deduct up to $250 in out-of-pocket expenses for books or other supplies.

Taxpayers will still be able to deduct their medical expenses, but it will be more difficult for many to qualify. The threshold for deducting medical expenses now stands at 10 percent of adjusted gross income, up from 7.5 percent.

There’s an exception, though, for those older than 65. For them, the old rate is grandfathered in until 2017.

Among the other changes for 2013, taxpayers who work at home will now have a simplified option for taking a home office deduction.

“You can claim this deduction for the business use of a part of your home only if you use that part of your home regularly and exclusively,” the IRS says.

Stocks that are less than $10 VIEWS Malcolm Berko Dear Mr. Berko: In early 2012, you recommended Flagstar Bank at 80 cents a share, and I bought 3,000 shares for $2,400 as a speculation. Flagstar had a 1-for-10 reverse split, and I now have 300 shares that trade at $19, worth $5,700.

I have a $51,000 certificate of deposit coming due next week. But because interest rates are so low, I decided not to renew and will speculate with this money.

Could you recommend some good stocks that trade below $10 a share (or attractive penny stocks) and

could double or triple in the next year or so? I’d like to get lucky. – SA, Bloomsburg, Pa. Dear SA: In the very early 1960s, I remember my father telling me, “Most issues selling under $10 a share are good stocks – good to stay away from.”

You got lucky. In that same column, I also recommended a Puerto Rican bank called Doral Financial, in which you’d have a $1,000 loss if you had chosen it instead of Flagstar.

I don’t have a penny stock source and frankly don’t want one. Penny stocks are like poison ivy. Those two recommendations came from an acquaintance of mine at the Federal Reserve who is now content-

OUR VIEW

No excuse for a low primary turnout The Illinois primary will take place in a little less than eight weeks. Voters will trek to the polls to have their say on which party candidates should advance to the Nov. 4 general election.

Primaries were considered an advancement a century ago. They took candidate selection out of the hands of party bigwigs in smoke-filled rooms and put it into the hands of the people.

That was the theory, at least.

In practice, many primary races are uncontested, so voters may not have much choice in the matter.

And the politicians who control the laws that govern primaries don’t always seem to have the voters’ best interests at heart.

Two years ago, primary turnout was about 21 percent in Will County and 23 percent in Grundy County, according to those two county clerk offices.

Four years ago, Will’s turnout was 21 percent, and Grundy’s was 22 percent.

But it is easier to vote these days, and the list of excuses not to vote is shorter.

Don’t know whether you’re registered to vote? Simply call your county clerk’s elections department and ask.

Also, you may visit www.elections.il.gov on the Web, click “Registration and Polling Place Information,” and type in your name and ZIP code to see whether you are registered.

Not sure how to register? Again, contact the county clerk, or visit the clerk’s website for information. The deadline to register is Feb. 18.

Won’t be home on March 18? No-excuse absentee voting and early voting options exist.

Serving in the military? Military absentee ballots are available from your county clerk.

Not registered but still want to vote? You can register the same day at the county clerk’s office and vote, between the 27th and third days before the election, under grace voting provisions.

Think you’re too young to vote? People who will be 17 on March 18, but who will turn 18 by the Nov. 4 general election, will be allowed to vote for the first time this year.

Don’t know where to vote? Your county clerk has a list of polling places on the county website. It will also be published in newspapers as the election nears.

Don’t know your precinct? It’s printed on your voter registration card.

Should Illinois increase its minimum wage?

SPRINGFIELD – I remember the first newspaper job I had working at the Galesburg Register-Mail.

I was a student writing obituaries over the summer making $3.35 an hour.

That was the federal minimum wage back then.

I don’t know how many times that news editor would yell at me and say the word “cemetery” does not have an “a” in it.

REEDER REPORT

Scott Reeder time, following directions, treating customers politely – or spelling “cemetery” correctly.

The minimum wage was never intended to be a living wage – just a starting one.

There is a push now to increase the Illinois minimum wage to $10 per hour. It is currently $8.25 per hour.

The federal minimum wage is $7.25.

Gov. Pat Quinn has taken to comparing opponents of the wage hike to Old Man Potter, the stingy

banker in “It’s a Wonderful Life,” or Montgomery Burns, the greedy nuclear plant owner in “The Simpsons.”

Such comments make for good political theater, but they do little to advance public discourse on a challenging economic issue.

Everyone in this political debate wants a more prosperous society – we just disagree on how that can be accomplished.

The problem with Quinn’s plan is the more you increase the cost of any particular commodity, the more you suppress demand.

That’s true of candy bars, automobiles and anything you can think of – including labor.

America’s economic freedom You can now say America’s free economy is a “mostly free” economy.

It’s official – the U.S. has fallen from the list of the world’s top 10 freest economies. The newly released 2014 Index of Economic Freedom by the Heritage Foundation and The Wall Street Journal places the U.S. at No. 12, down two spots from No. 10 last year.

The U.S. is the only country to have recorded a loss of economic freedom

in each of the past seven years, starting with the tail end of the Bush administration and continuing through the Obama presidency.

“Now considered only a ‘mostly free’ economy, the U.S. has earned the dubious distinction of having recorded one of the longest sustained declines in economic freedom, second only to Argentina, of any country in the [20-year] history of the Index,” observe

the report’s editors.

It doesn’t take a scholar to figure out the underlying causes to our decline, but experts lay them out anyway: reckless government spending, onerous regulations, bureaucratic red tape, the nationalization of American industries, trillion-dollar annual deficits and, the latest and greatest, Obamacare. If you’re wondering about our current standing in the world, the U.S. is now sandwiched

behind No. 11 Estonia and No. 13 Bahrain. The top 10 (in order of rank) are Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, Switzerland, New Zealand, Canada, Chile, Mauritius, Ireland and Denmark. The top six are in the “free” economic category.

So, in a nutshell, nonstop expansion of the state is causing our economic freedoms to plummet.

Hike leaves low-skill workers vulnerable • REEDER REPORT Continued from page 24 Every time employers consider hiring, they ask themselves how that investment will enable them to earn money.

If the cost of labor is too high they will simply opt not to hire anyone.

It always has to pencil out.

And Quinn wants to raise the minimum wage by 21 percent.

This would leave lowskill workers vulnerable – very vulnerable. Instead

of having a low-paying job, they could face the prospect of no job at all.

“I’ll be the first to admit that you can’t support a family on a minimum-wage job,” said Kim Clarke Maisch, who heads the Illinois chapter of the National Federation of Independent Business. “But the vast majority of people with minimum-wage jobs are high school students, college students and people who aren’t the primary earner in their families.”

GIRLS BASKETBALL: JOLIET CENTRAIL 60, LOCAKPORT 55 (OT)

Second-half surge powers Joliet Central to overtime win

By ALEX SOULIER

“We always want to use our height and our physicality to our advantage.

Lockport was shooting lights-out in the first half, but we made it a point to stay within ourselves, remain focused and play our game.”

asoulier@shawmedia.com LOCKPORT – The size and strength of the Joliet Central girls basketball team eventually wore down the Lockport defense on Monday night.

Forwards Chavon Banks and Chantell Mack scored 24 and 18 points, respectively, helping the Steelmen erase a ninepoint first-half deficit and secure a 60-55 overtime win over their Southwest Suburban Blue rival Lockport.

“We always want to use our height and our physicality to our advantage,” said Joliet Central head coach Brian Reed.

“Lockport was shooting lights-out in the first half, but we made it a point to stay within ourselves, remain focused and play our game.”

The Porters’ shooters controlled the tempo and flow of the game for a majority of the first half.

Minutes into the contest, Lockport jumped out to a 6-0 lead behind consecutive fast-break baskets from guards Naomi Mayes and Tia Parrinello.

Although Joliet Central narrowed the gap to two points by the end of the opening quarter, Lockport drained 6-of13 three-point attempts while the Steelmen hit just two field goals in the second quarter.

Trailing 30-21 at halftime, Reed’s message was clear: contest every shot and pound the paint.

“The girls came into the locker room focused and determined to turn the game around in the second half,” Reed said.

“They really wanted to

“Defense produces offense,” Banks said. “We agreed that we had to pick up the intensity, rally around our defense and let our offense fall into place.”

Lockport converted the first two points of the third quarter, but it was all Joliet Central from there out.

Mack scored six straight points for the

Steelmen, who then went on a 17-8 run to end the third quarter, making it a one possession game.

Neither team could seize control in the final frame, as the Porters built a seven-point advantage only to watch Central stage a comeback and take a two point lead with under 40 seconds remaining.

Out of a timeout, Lockport dribbled down the court, holding the ball for the final shot.

With about five sec-

onds on the clock, Mayes’ three-point attempt was

partially blocked but fortuitously wound up in

hands of Kyla Creal.

The junior forward hit a layup before time expired, sending the game into overtime.

In the extra period, another Creal layup gave the Porters the early lead.

But, as they had done all game, the Steelmen bounced back, engineering a 9-2 run to emerge victorious.

Parrinello led Lockport with 18 points while Jamari McAfee chipped in 14 points.

Minooka bowlers look to take it a step further VIEWS Dick Goss The celebration last winter was all about Lockport winning IHSA boys state bowling championship.

As for another area team that was there, heartbreak city.

The two-day tournament features four threegame series, and for the first three of those quadrants, Minooka was primed to take home the top prize.

Things did not go well for the Indians, however, on that Saturday afternoon at St. Clair Bowl. They wound up fourth, one pin from the third-place finish

that would have merited a trophy.

In this first season of the state series beginning with a regional level, the question was whether the success of last year’s team – or the heartbreaking way the season ended – would have an effect this time around.

Stay tuned. The Indians won the regional they hosted last Saturday at Channahon Lanes with a 6,264 total. Bolingbrook (6,047) and Plainfield North (5,721) also advanced. Romeoville, which won the Sandburg Regional with a 6,490 score, and Lockport, which was fourth at 6,283, will join them in Saturday’s Andrew Sectional at Orland Lanes.

Romeoville and Minooka went back-and-forth

during the Southwest Prairie Conference season. The Spartans won the conference championship while the Indians prevailed in the conference tournament.

Six teams and seven individuals from each of the four statewide sectionals will advance to state. Two individual at-large berths also will be awarded. So, how prepared is Minooka to return to O’Fallon and perhaps improve on that fourth-place finish?

“Talent-wise, we may be better than last year,” Indians coach Derrick Rapsky said. “However, we lost Justin Shepard (to graduation) as a bowler and leader. There hasn’t been somebody step up and fire the guys up. You can have all

Joliet Catholic girls remain unbeaten The Joliet Catholic girls basketball team remained unbeaten with a 63-55 victory Monday over Batavia at the McDonald’s Shootout.

Nicole Ekhomu scored 19 points and Jasmine Lumpkin had 17 points and 15 rebounds for the Angels (19-0). Joliet Catholic will visit Marist on Wednesday and face Whitney Young in a Saturday Chicago game.

Willowbrook 67, Providence 51: Alyssa Jurges scored 21 points and Mary Fashingbauer grabbed seven rebounds for Providence (14-9).

Men’s basketball USF 80, Indiana-South Bend 63: Edvinas Presniakovas (Plainfield South) led a balanced attack with 18 points as University of St. Francis beat host Indiana-South Bend in Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference men’s basketball. USF (8-11, 5-4 CCAC) shot 62 percent from the field, including

75 percent from 3-point distance, in the first half as it built a 52-26 lead. The Saints led by as many as 32 points in the second half.

Mark Peters finished with 16 points and a game-high seven rebounds. St. Francis also got 10 points each from Matt Sherriff and Jo Jo Ballestero. With a 3-point basket at the 1:05 mark of the first half, junior Chris Miller reached the 1,000-career point plateau. He also handed out a game-high six assists.

Women’s basketball USF 75, Indiana-South Bend 69: Katie Gonnering scored a game-high 24 points and Cydney Weisflog added a season-high 19 for St. Francis (5-16, 3-5) in the Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference game. Alexis Brown chipped in 10 points.

the talent in the world and not keep up against this competition.”

Rapsky noted the Indians shot 6,600 in one tournament this season, so the capability is there.

“But if one guy falls, it has tended to be like dominoes with other guys falling, too,” Rapsky said.

Minooka senior John Kauffman, the individual regional champion with a 1,376 total, said leadership with the Indians has been a shared deal.

“We don’t have one big leader, we all take turns,” he said. “But we’re one big team.”

Kauffman said the Indians are hopeful their experience will pay more dividends.

“We have a lot of experience here,” he said. “Last year was the first time to state for us, and we didn’t know what to expect. Now we have a better idea.”

Senior Zach Segatto, whose 218-234 finish at the regional gave him a 1,223 total and eighth place, said the Indians were expecting to shoot better than they did.

“Even though we won, we missed a lot of makeable spares,” he said. “That shouldn’t happen. But the experience we have is very helpful.”

Minooka junior Dylan Pickett, fifth in the regional with a 1,236 score, added, “We know what it takes mentally when we get to this stage. We kept

our heads on straight. If we have a bad shot, we know we have to stick with it.

“This game a lot of teamwork and mental stability.

We have to keep making spares. That’s more important than people realize. It’s awesome to strike, but a one-pin spare can make the difference between a trophy or not.”

First things first. The Indians must finish in the top six Saturday to qualify for state. If they clear that hurdle, it will be interesting to see whether they can take last year’s run a step further. The talent is there, for Minooka and the other area schools at Saturday’s sectional. The mental game will be huge in determining who survives.

GIRLS BASKERBALL: YORKVILLE 43, MORRIS 41

Late Morris rally comes up short against Yorkville

By T.G. SMITH tsmith@shawmedia.com With the Morris girls basketball team trailing Yorkville by 19 points with slightly over 13 minutes to play, things were not looking good for the hosting Redskins.

Sloppy play leading to countless turnovers in the first half put Morris in a deep hole against the Foxes in the Northern Illinois Big 12 East Conference game.

Who knew then that the game would see a complete turnaround and come down to the final possession.

In the end, the Foxes would ultimately prevail, 43-41, but not without a valiant fight by the Redskins.

“I thought Morris’ defense was outstanding in the second half. They were extremely physical,” Yorkville coach Luke Engleheart said. “In the first half we kind of got away with getting the ball inside, but in the second half we couldn’t get anything in there because Morris packed it in. Morris played really hard tonight. We got lucky.”

The second half was the biggest difference as Morris outscored Yorkville, 124, in the third quarter and

Craig Lincoln for Shaw Media

Morris guard Leona Burton goes up for a shot at the end of the second quarter Tuesday. The Redskins made a late rally in the second half, but it wasn’t enough as Yorkville won, 43-41.

16-11 in the fourth quarter.

With five seconds to go and the visitors nursing what would be the final score, Foxes guard Cor-

rine Rowe missed two free throws to give the Redskins a chance to tie or win the game on the offensive end.

Julie Jurasits got the re-

bounds and dribbled the length of the floor, only to have a 10-foot runner bounce off the rim.

“Our shots started go-

ing in. In the first half we couldn’t get a shot to drop to save our lives,” Morris coach Kate Carey said.

“Our defense also got

stops in the second half.

When we started attacking and stopped thinking that changed everything for us.”

Morris was down, 32-12 with 5:11 left to go in the third quarter when the Redskins made a run that took the game down to the wire.

Ashley Bojovic got things going for Morris with a basket that started a 12-0 run. In that span, Jurasits, Emily Burling, Alex Kjellesvik, Jessica Ponce and Leona Burton scored to have Morris trailing, 32-25, by the quarters end.

And the game was within reach.

Down the stretch, a Katie Friend basket got Morris to within 36-34, and another Friend hoop made it 38-36. Friend also hit a 3-pointer to make it 40-39, but Yorkville pulled it out in the end.

“I told the girls that it was their best comeback ever,” Carey said. “They played with a lot of heart and came back from a pretty deep hole. At halftime it kind of looked hopeless and they had their heads down.

That’s what I wanted to see in the second half and that’s what I got.”

GIRLS BOWLING: MORRIS 3,581, DEKALB 2,995

Redskins win on senior night Two had the best series of their careers

By MARK JOHNSON mjohnson@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Senior night was very much worth celebrating for Morris on Tuesday, as it bowled a series-best 3,581 to defeat Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference opponent DeKalb and its 2,995.

Two Redskins had the best series of their careers, although only one was competing at Echo Bowling Lanes in Morris for the final time in competition. Junior Taylor Warwick’s 727 series was the high from either team, and senior Skylar Easson followed with a 648, her personal best.

After bowling four strikes in a row and six total during a 216 first game, Warwick had strikes in every frame but the first and the 10th in Game 2, totaling a 266. She started the final game with a turkey and had another starting in the fifth frame on her way to a 245.

“I was eight pins away from a 700 a few weeks ago. ... Even when I had my 300, I wasn’t even close to a 700,” Warwick said. “[The first ball in the fourth frame of Game 3] was a really good shot. Sometimes, [Morris coach] Harry [Banks] tells me that when the ball goes through, it hits so hard that it carries right through and doesn’t hit the eight pin. ... That

Easson left the fourth and fifth frames open in the first game and had only two strikes by the seventh, but she struck out from there for a 214.

She had three strikes in the second game, which she finished with a 176, but seven straight strikes

in Game 3 helped her total a 248.

“Warming up helps just throughout the day. Usually my last game is my best,” Easson said. “My last [home] game’s my high game, so that’s cool.”

Another senior, Savannah Strange, matched Warwick for the highest game of the match with a 266 in the third, which completed a 635 series.

Strange turned around what looked like an average day early by connecting on three different fourpin spares in the second game.

“Right when I got two strikes [in Game 2], I was more focused and more like, ‘I want to get this going because this is my last day here, so just kinda picked it up,” Strange said. “I was more relaxed

[in Game 3], because in the first two games, I was kinda shaky.”

Senior anchor Amber Benson was more consistent than spectacular for the Redskins, bowling a 202, a 204 and a 186 for a 592 series. Their fourth senior, Imelda Garcia, had game totals of 162, 176 and 172 for a 510 series, and junior Jessica Winter added a 469 series.

“Senior day’s a tough thing. They kind of emotionally are, sometimes got other things going, so they’re emotionally going a lot of different directions,” Banks said. “They bowled very well. The whole team bowled very well. We’re peaking right at the right time.”

DeKalb was led by a 604 from Taylor Mershon and a 592 from Maddy Jouris.

8WHAT TO WATCH

BLACKHAWKS AT DETROIT, 7 P.M. WEDNESDAY, NBCSN, AM-720

Saad serves as Hawks’ ‘Piano Man’ VIEWS Tom Musick CHICAGO – At 21 years old, Blackhawks forward Brandon Saad already has made NHL history.

Probably.

OK, well, it’s almost impossible to know for sure. But can you name another hockey player who has played the piano with Lord Stanley’s Cup resting atop the lid?

“What kind of nerd plays the piano?” teammate Bryan Bickell said with a toothless, tongue-in-cheek grin. “I mean, my dad plays the piano. I call him a nerd.”

That’s OK. It’s cool to be a nerd.

Much like the rest of his Hawks teammates, Saad has hit almost all of the right notes during the first three-plus months of the regular season. The 6-foot-1, 202-pound winger has 15 goals and 19 assists while playing mostly on the second line, and today’s contest against the Detroit Red Wings will mark his 100th career game.

On the ice, Saad is a speedy, decisive, two-way player.

Off the ice, he’s a friendly, relaxed, 88-key player.

With piano, unlike hockey, you can sit on the bench and play at the same time.

“I like the sound of it,” Saad said Tuesday after practice at Johnny’s IceHouse West. “It’s fun to play to take your mind off things.”

It all started in elementary school – about fifth grade, Saad guessed – when his parents signed him up for piano lessons. But a rigorous travel schedule for

The Blackhawks’ Brandon Saad has a hidden talent as a piano player. hockey eventually prompted him to stop taking lessons.

Saad’s extra attention on hockey paid off in a big way. He blossomed as a teenager with the U.S. development program in Michigan before joining the Saginaw Spirit of the Ontario Hockey League at age 18.

The Hawks selected him in the second round of the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, and Saad rocketed through the minors to earn a Stanley Cup ring as a 20-year-old rookie last season.

These days, Saad serves as his own piano instructor. He looks up songs on YouTube and tries his best to imitate what he hears.

His favorite is a classic, more than four decades old.

“I can play ‘The Piano Man’ by Billy Joel,” Saad

said. “Big hit. Everyone likes that.”

Imagine if the Hawks set up a piano in the corner of the dressing room.

Ben Folds, anyone? How about some Ray Charles?

Who doesn’t love Stevie Wonder?

Saad chuckled at the image. He doesn’t tell a lot of teammates that he plays.

“Maybe one day, I’ll play for the team,” Saad said.

“We’ll see.”

Hawks defenseman Nick Leddy said he was surprised earlier this season when Saad told him he could play the piano.

Leddy might not be a music expert, but he knew enough to understand that “The Piano Man” was beyond entry-level material.

“I think it just shows his intelligence,” Leddy said.

“It’s pretty amazing that

he can play such a tough instrument.”

He can play a tough game, too.

Thirteen of Saad’s 25 career goals have come on home ice, where “Chelsea Dagger” blasts from the speakers every time the Hawks score.

If necessary, could Saad

step in and play the tune on piano?

“I haven’t learned that one yet,” Saad said. “But it’s on my list.”

Bulls prepare to face Deng for first time

By MARK POTASH mpotash@suntimes.com Under Tom Thibodeau, the Bulls treat every game as nothing more than an opportunity to win. But their next one won’t be just another game for Joakim Noah, Jimmy Butler and most of their teammates.

When the Bulls play the Cleveland Cavaliers Wednesday (6 p.m., CSN) at Quicken Loans Arena, it’ll be their first time facing Luol Deng as an opponent. ‘‘It will probably be weird,’’ Noah said. ‘‘It will probably be strange, but I still want to kick his [butt].

I love Luol. He’s my brother. But when that ball goes up, he’s not going to be my brother any more.’’

Speaking to reporters in Cleveland, Deng acknowledged that as much as he would like it to be just another game, it will be ‘‘a little weird’’ to face the Bulls. ‘‘It will be good to see the guys,’’ Deng said. ‘‘Honestly, it’s another game.

When I go out there it will be weird, because it’s [against] guys I practiced with, and I was just with them not too long ago. That

aspect of it will be weird. ‘‘But I can’t really answer the emotional part until ... the ball goes up. I’m not going to start crying and start hugging the guys.

I’m sure they’re going to go after me as guys that I’m close with. But when the ball goes up, there’s going to be nothing better for them to beat me and vice-versa. I can’t wait to beat them. So it will be interesting. Whoever wins ... you’re going to be hearing from whoever wins a lot.’’

As expected, Deng has fit in well with the Cavaliers, who are 3-3 since acquiring him. Deng is averaging 18.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and shooting 49.4 percent from the field and 50 percent (10 of 20) from 3-point range. He has averaged 22.5 points in his past four games, with 27 in a road victory over the Lakers (including 5 of 5 3-point shooting) and 25 the after night in a loss at Portland.

In 23 games with the Bulls, Deng averaged 19 points, 6.9 rebounds and shot 45 percent from the field and 28 percent from 3-point range. ‘‘I know how fierce of a

And after the game we’re going to visit. ‘‘I have a lot of respect for him – all the stuff that he did for us, what he did

for me personally. But that friendship aside ... we’re going to be ready.’’

Butler, one of several Deng disciples on the Bulls, likely will draw the assignment of guarding his former teammate and is looking

forward to it. ‘‘It’ll be fun,’’ Butler said. ‘‘Lu taught me a lot.

I think there will be a lot of smiles out there on the court, along with business.

You get to play against another great guy. Unfortunately, he’s on another

team. But he’s done so much and he’s had a tremendous career. It’ll be nice to guard him.’’

Still, after the pre-jump handshakes, it will be all business for the Bulls, who have won 11 of their past 15 games and are one game behind Atlanta for third place in the Eastern Conference. And they could be shorthanded against the Cavaliers, with point guard Kirk Hinrich not expected to play after suffering a hamstring injury against the Lakers on Monday night. ‘‘We’ve dug out of a big hole. [But] we’ve got a lot of digging to do,’’ Thibodeau said. ‘‘By no means have we arrived. We have to go step by step. If we start looking down the road [or] what happened behind us, we’re going to lose sight of exactly what’s in front of us. We have to be ready for Cleveland.’’

The Bulls officially announced the trade of guard Marquis Teague to the Brooklyn Nets for 22-year-old Tornike “Toko” Shengelia, a 6-foot-9, 220-pound forward who is averaging 1.5 points in eight minutes a game.

Recipe for winning batch Dog House Pub to host second annual chili cook-off Sunday

By Denise M. Baran Unland dunland@shawmedia.com Mike Przybyla’s introduced himself to cooking when he became a single parent. Ten years later, this Shorewood man won a chili cook-off that benefits children from single-parent homes.

Przybyla will enter another batch of that winning chili to the second cook-off Sunday at the Dog House Pub in Joliet. Owner Mike Carlson said slots are filling up fast so interested chili cooks should register as soon as possible.

For just $5, the public can sample up to 25 different varieties of homemade chili all served up from 6 quart (or larger) crockpots, Carlson said. Three culinary professionals will judge the chili, he added.

Carlson, however, won’t be cooking.

“I come up with the judges,” Carlson said, “so I’m impartial.”

After tweaking a friend’s recipe, Przybyla delighted his daughters, Amanda Przybyla, now 22, and Ashley Przybyla, now 19, both of Indiana, with the results. So last year, when Big Brothers Big Sisters of Will and Grundy Counties hosted its first chili cook-off, Przybyla entered, never minding if he won first place or not.

“It was for a great cause, that was the main thing,” said Przybyla, who helps

If you go n What: Chili Cook-Off n When: Sunday. Chili arrives

at 10:30 a.m. Judging begins at 1 p.m. The public eats at 1:30 p.m. n Where: Dog House Pub, 3111 W. Jefferson St., Joliet. n Cost: $10 to register; $5 to eat n To register: 815-730-1247 n For more information: 815723-BBBS distribute food once a week for Family Outreach Program in Crest Hill. “It’s all about giving back.”

The event organizer is John Albrecht of Joliet, a retired Joliet Police Department sergeant and a district trustee for the Illinois State Fraternal Order of Police Lodge.

Albrecht has been cooking chili and entering competitions for years – winning a few, losing a few, he said – so last year Albrecht approached Carlson with his cook-off idea to help BBBS because he considered the Dog House Pub an ideal location for it.

“It’s very large and in a strip mall right off Jefferson and Essington,” Albrecht said. “It’s something people could do in the winter and it’s the weekend between playoffs and Super Bowl so there’s no football.”

Last year’s inaugural chili cook-off raised $1,200;

Luke Pascale, owner of Aurelio’s Pizza in Joliet; Richard George, husband of Mary Kay George, one of the owners at Merichka’s Restaurant in Crest Hill; and Paul Bringas, associate professor culinary arts at Joliet Junior College, taste several varieties of chili at last year’s cook-off. this year’s goal is $2,000, said Lisa Morel Las, chief executive officer of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Will and Grundy Counties.

With no event overhead, 100 percent of money raised will go to the organization, Albrecht added.

Of course, to raise that money, the chili’s got to be good. Because Albrecht is not a “bean lover” and “regular Texas chili has no beans,” he builds

flavor with 6 pounds of five different nicely browned meats. Creating good chili, he said, is mostly “trial and error.”

“Everyone’s got their own recipes,” Albrecht said. “No two chilis are the same.”

For individuals preparing and entering their first pot of chili, Przybyla cautions against over seasoning, as not everyone likes hot chili. The final

Fun Facts • Chile peppers were used in Cervantes’ Spain and show up in great ancient cuisines of China, India, Indonesia, Italy, the Caribbean, France and the Arab states.

• Don Juan de Onate entered what is now New Mexico in 1598 and brought with him the green chile pepper. It has grown there for the nearly 400 years since.

“It should not be sloppy wet,” Przybyla said. “It’s more about flavor.”

Skip the dip Potato skins a fresh take on traditional seven-layer dip

By ALISON LADMAN The Associated Press Everybody seems enraptured by seven-layer dip. And not that it’s bad, but it’s been done. And done again. And again.

So for this year’s Super Bowl party, why not freshen it up a bit? Take the same concept of shoveling piles of delicious toppings into your mouth, but instead of chips use a slab of roasted potato.

To create our seven-layer potato skins, we started with some of the traditional toppings for potato skins – bacon, scallions and cheese. From there, we added crumbled sausage (more pig!), a garlicky sour cream and caramelized onions.

OK, so they’re more like over-stuffed, almost twicebaked potatoes. But with party food this delicious, who cares?

Seven-Layer Potato Skins Start to finish: 45 minutes (15 minutes active) Servings: 16 8 medium potatoes 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided 2 large yellow onions, diced Salt and ground black pepper 8 ounces loose sausage meat, cooked and crumbled 1/2 cup sour cream 2 cloves garlic, minced 8 slices cooked bacon, crumbled 1 cup shredded cheddar

Seven-Layer Potato Skins AP photo

cheese 2 scallions, sliced Heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, then coat with cooking spray.

Poke the potatoes all over with a fork. Microwave on high until tender, 10 to 12 minutes depending on the wattage of your microwave.

Allow to cool until easily handled.

Meanwhile, in a medium skillet over medium, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil. Add the onions and cook until softened and browned, 15 to 18 minutes.

When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them in half. Scoop out and reserve the insides, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick wall of potato flesh on the skin. Arrange the halves skin sides down on the prepared baking sheet.

Brush the potatoes with the remaining tablespoon of oil.

Sprinkle lightly with salt and black pepper, then bake for 15

to 20 minutes, or until crisped and browned.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl stir together the reserved potato flesh and the sausage. Season with salt and pepper, if needed. In a small bowl, stir together the sour cream and garlic. Set aside.

Once the potato skins have baked, start layering them.

Spoon a bit of the caramelized onions into the bottom of each shell. Top with the sausage-potato mixture. This should mostly fill the shell.

Sprinkle crumbled bacon over the potatoes, followed by cheese. Bake for another 10 minutes. Top with a dollop of the garlic sour cream and sprinkle with the scallions.

Serve immediately.

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Before jumping, prepare the landing

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Look before you leap is a well-known adage. There is a bridge equivalent, which is highlighted by today’s deal.

South is in four spades. West leads off with the top three clubs. How should South continue after ruffing the third?

Note North’s raise to two spades. This risked putting his side into a 4-3 fit, but to rebid one no-trump with no minor-suit stopper would have been worse.

Support with support, especially in the majors. And if South had enough to move higher and only four spades, he would have rebid something other than four spades (perhaps three no-trump).

South’s jump to four spades promised at least a five-card suit.

South will fail only if he loses one trick in each major. The textbooks will tell you that the percentage play in spades is to cash the ace and king. If declarer does that here, though, he will go down, losing one spade, one heart and two clubs.

Instead, South should take the whole deal into account and do a little preparation, so that if he does misguess spades, he will still make the contract regardless of the heart position.

Before touching trumps, South should play off his two diamond winners. Then he should cash his spade king and lead a spade to dummy’s nine. Here the finesse wins and the contract is home. But note that if East could win the seventh trick with the spade queen, he would be endplayed. If he leads a heart, declarer cannot lose a trick in that suit. Or if East returns a minor-suit card, South sluffs a heart from his hand and ruffs on the board.

Bachelor attracts women seeking marriage Mom should not pick Dear Abby: I am a 53-year-old male who is fit, healthy and has a good job. I also have two failed marriages behind me, which have cost me dearly, both emotionally and financially. I have no intention of making that mistake again! I have been on my own for five years, and in that time I have had five relationships – always with women my age (give or take a few years).

My problem is that women my age seem to have only one agenda: marriage. One very nice lady finally clarified her feelings by saying that at this time in her life, she didn’t have time for “just dating” because in a few years she’d be 60.

I understand her dilemma, but I’m not interested in younger women. I try hard to make it clear at the beginning of any relationship that marriage is out of the question, and I don’t proceed with the relationship unless the lady wholeheartedly agrees. But somehow I have broken five good hearts, whose

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips only transgression was falling in love with me. – Nobody’s Retirement Husband Dear N.R.H.: I admire your self-image. You must be doing something right to have the ladies lining up the way they are. However, you may not be as effective a communicator as you think you are if five different women failed to get the message you said you convey. I have several thoughts about your predicament: If your only fear of marriage is that you would again be cleaned out financially, a strong prenuptial agreement could help you avoid any problem if a third marriage didn’t work. However, if variety is what you prefer, then you should restate your message every few

months as these relationships blossom.

(Or you could move to a monastery and stop dangling yourself in the dating pool.)

Dear Abby: I hope you can help with this etiquette question. My son and his wife believe that when you finish a good meal, you toss your napkin on the now-empty plate. They say this sends a message that the food was great. I do not agree. Is placing a grubby napkin on the plate inappropriate or is this legit? – Not A Napkin-Tossing Dad Dear Dad: Your son and his wife need to re-read the chapter on table manners in their etiquette book. When a meal is finished and the plate is empty, diners should place their used napkins on the table BESIDE their dessert plate. It should not be placed on top of a dirty plate. P.S. If they don’t own an etiquette book, it appears they could use one.

Make your deli sandwich a healthier lunch Dear Doctor K: A deli sandwich is my go-to lunch most days of the week. Any suggestions for making my sandwiches healthier?

Dear Reader: If your sandwiches are like those most people eat, the question is not whether I can suggest healthier sandwiches; it’s whether I can suggest sandwiches that are less unhealthy.

Sandwich shops can be a convenient lunchtime choice. The downside? Many deli sandwiches are made with cured and processed meats that have been linked to higher rates of heart disease, Type 2 diabetes and colon cancer. Deli meats and cheeses often are loaded with unhealthy fats (saturated fats and trans fats), calories and sodium.

If you can, try to make and bring your sandwiches from home. When you make your own sandwich, you have full control over what’s in it. If that’s not possible, you may need to do some research. Many national chains offer online nutrition information that can help you make better choices.

A balanced sandwich contains lean protein, healthful carbohydrates and a hefty serving of vegetables. To build (or order) a balanced sandwich, follow these basic steps:

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff Step 1: Start with a healthful foundation. You can make a sandwich on bread, tortillas, crackers, pita or any number of grain-based products. Just be sure to choose a whole-grain variety. That means choosing breads that list “whole” before the grain’s name as the first ingredient. Whole-grain breads have fewer “bad carbs” – carbohydrates that are broken down into rapidly absorbed sugars that increase your risk of getting Type 2 diabetes.

Step 2: Spread on a flavorful accent.

Try a small amount of guacamole, mustard, light mayonnaise, roasted red peppers, tomato sauce or salsa.

Step 3: Add lean protein. Most of the meats I see friends eating in sandwiches are full of saturated fat.

They are definitely not “lean” protein.

Instead, try flaked tuna, chopped chicken, turkey breast, low-fat cheese, lean beef or hummus. If you really love cold cuts, look for whole-deli meats – minimally processed versions with less sodium.

Whole-deli meats are just seasoned

and cooked meat, which is then sliced to make sandwiches. Processed deli meats, on the other hand, contain finely ground meat mixed with meat byproducts, preservatives and flavoring agents. I would generally avoid them. (Yes, I take my own advice.)

Step 4: Add crunchy companions to any meat. Consider romaine lettuce, shredded carrots or celery, sliced apples, sliced red and green peppers, sliced cucumbers, tomato, roasted red peppers, mushrooms, snap peas or cherry tomatoes.

Step 5: Think big. Layer your sandwich to make a large and appetizing creation with spinach and watercress, tomato, cucumber and onion. If you’re a regular reader of this column, you’ve heard it before and you’ll hear it again: eating an unhealthy sandwich (or any type of food) won’t kill you. Unhealthy foods are not like poison – a single sandwich of processed meats won’t do to you what a single dose of arsenic will. Occasional unhealthy foods are not the problem. The problem is a diet that regularly includes them.

her daughter’s dates Dr. Wallace: I’m a 16-year-old girl and I’m finally allowed to date, but only boys who are “handpicked” by my mom. So far, she has picked only three boys who attend our church. So far, none of them have asked me out, and it’s just as well because even if they did, I would have to say, “No, thank you.” None of them are my type, and I don’t have anything in common with any of them. My mom thinks they are sweet boys, and she thinks since they go to our church they will be real gentlemen.

I consider myself a very sensible young lady. I’m a good student and have very high moral standards. I feel perfectly capable of choosing my own dates. If you agree with me, please print my letter.

– Nameless, Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada Dear Nameless: I’m on your side! While I’m a firm believer that parents should know the person their teen is dating and have a right to veto someone they consider untrustworthy, they should not “hand-pick” their child’s dates. That’s going too far. Not only do young people have a right to make their own friends – of either sex – they also need to learn how to make wise choices. An overly controlling parent, who insists on making crucial life choices for his or her child, denies the child the opportunity to learn and grow and come naturally to a secure, gradual sense of independence.

Dr. Wallace: My teacher said she would give me an A on this assignment if you would answer my question in your column.

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace Would you vote for a female to be president of the United States? Be honest!

– Kelly, Atlanta, Ga. Dear Kelly: Yes, I would vote for a qualified female presidential candidate if I agreed with her vision for our country. It’s possible that both parties could nominate a woman to run in 2016, which would guarantee a female president.

Dr. Wallace: I’ve been dating Todd for over a year. He lives alone with his mother. His parents are divorced and he has not seen his father in over two years. Yesterday I was talking with Todd’s cousin and she told me that his father lived in California and that his parents divorced because his father was gay. I told my mother about this and she said that the father must have been a latent homosexual (it shows up later in life) and that homosexuality is an inherited trait and that it’s possible that Todd could become gay when he is older. Is this possible? – Nameless, Lowell, Mass.

Dear Nameless: I am not an authority on this subject, but my research shows that sexual orientation is not an inherited trait. I’m sure I’ll receive mail with some readers who will disagree with me.

Human sexuality causes great debate and, unfortunately, sexual orientation has little scientific fact and lots of unscientific conjecture.

HOROSCOPE

By BERNICE BEDE OSOL Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – You have had to fight hard to overcome obstacles in the past. To ease the situation in the future, you must change your whole approach.

Pressuring yourself has been a major part of the problem. The simplest methods will likely lead to the highest returns in the year ahead.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Implement a clear system to prepare yourself to meet your goals.

Traveling may be the best way to find the information you need to move forward.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You will be bogged down with added responsibilities today. You may have to handle someone else’s financial matters or estate. Get informed before making any big decisions.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – You will tend to react prematurely and get into trouble if you don’t listen carefully to what others have to say. Nothing will be as it first appears. It’s best to wait and let others approach you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – The harder you are willing to work, the better off you’ll be. Your eagerness to take on responsibility will impress someone who is searching for the right person to do an important job.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Plan to go out and have a fun and social evening. You are likely to have interactions with children, and you will be surprised what they can teach you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Family matters will probably require some damage control. Awkwardness may result from your current limitations. Make use of your resources, even though family members may not be eager to follow orders.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – While you are busy defending yourself, you are likely to uncover some extremely valuable information. Find an opportunity to take a little trip.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Don’t let anyone impede your progress. Remain aware of past mistakes to avoid falling into the same patterns. Financial strategies should be presented carefully.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Don’t be overtaken by your emotions. You will do well today if you can present a stable front. Take the time to further develop your creative ideas.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – You will have good ideas for improving your finances. If you stay grounded, you will make all the right decisions.

Trust your instincts, but don’t get carried away.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Restlessness will lead to personal changes. If you communicate your differences, reforms can be made fairly easily.

Likeminded individuals will offer you their support.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Don’t be aggravated if things don’t turn out your way. Putting in extra time and energy will be necessary. Change is upon you, so prepare to accept the inevitable.

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com

Leto talks about ‘Dallas Buyers Club’ to meet [director] Jean-Marc Valle on Skype, and then turn it down. But then I did an interesting thing; I wanted to see if I was capable, if there was something there for me.

So, I got on Skype with him for a meeting. I got some lipstick beforehand. I introduced myself, said hello, and a couple more words, then I reached over and picked up the lipstick and put it on. Then I changed my voice a little bit, and I undid my jacket and I had a little pink sweater on. I was getting a little flirty with him. I got the call the next day and I had the part.

By ED SYMKUS More Content Now Of the many praises that could be sung about the acting talents of Jared Leto, two really stand out: He never makes the same film twice, and he’s often unrecognizable from role to role. Proof can be found with just a small selection from his arsenal – “Fight Club,” “American Psycho,” “Requiem for a Dream,” “Panic Room,” “Chapter 27.”

Seriously, did you even know he was in some of those films? And now, with seemingly chameleon-like ability, he’s racking up award after award for playing the transgender prostitute Rayon, opposite Matthew McConaughey, in “Dallas Buyers Club,” with a Supporting Actor nomination and almost locked-in win at the Oscars just around the corner.

What’s most amazing about all of this is that he hadn’t stepped in front of a camera since 2007, when he played John Lennon’s killer Mark David Chapman in “Chapter 27.”

He’s been singing and playing guitar in his band 30 Seconds from Mars, but he’s back. Leto was interviewed in September when “Dallas Buyers Club” premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Ed Symkus: There’s a rumor that you stayed in character for the entire shoot.

Jared Leto: Yes, I did. How could you not? How could you leave that beautiful creature?

But, yeah, it was part of the process. I’ve done that many times, but not on all films. But in this one there were so many characteristics, so many attributes that were so far away from where I live my daily life.

Even if you just talk about the

Jared Leto is nominated for an Oscar for his role in the film “Dallas Buyers Club.” voices and the mannerisms, every time the camera cut, I couldn’t just drop all that, and then every time they said action, pick it back up and remember everything. So, I just chose to be there.

ES: You also lost a tremendous amount of weight for the part.

JL: I lost over 30 pounds. I got down to about 114 pounds, and then I stopped counting.

I’d lost weight before for “Requiem,” and I gained 60 pounds for “Chapter 27.” The weight is interesting because it provides a certain amount of fragility.

It affected the way you walk, talk, laugh, breathe. It’s a great asset, but it’s also a commitment you can’t run away from.

It brings with it an incredible focus.

ES: Was there anything uncomfortable for you in playing Rayon?

JL: What I find interesting was how people treated me different. Especially because I was in character all the time.

The toughest, most masculine guys were the ones that treated

me the most gentle. I think that in their eyes I became a different person, and there were lots of, “Right this way, ma’am,” and they’d hold my hand when I got out of the van. It was very sweet to be a dainty little lady like that (laughs).

ES: What was the hardest part of finding that character?

JL: I think probably it’s the commitment over a long period of time. Like when it’s 5 a.m. again and you’re covered in a ton of makeup and wigs, and you’re in the makeup chair for hours. It’s the commitment, the concentration, and the focus. Sometimes you just want to rip your wig off and run down the street and escape.

ES: What were your initial thoughts about doing the part?

JL: I had heard of this script, but I didn’t want to read it because I just didn’t have time in my life to squeeze something else in. Then I got a nudge, and I read the script, and it was all over. I still had planned

ES: Was it the band you were so busy with?

JL: Yeah, and we’ve had more success than we ever dreamed, if I can say that without sounding like a jerk.

We’ve played from Africa to Asia to the Arctic, in the biggest shows that we could ever imagine. And we’re still doing it. We played last summer in festivals in Europe, sometimes in front of 100,000 people. So, do you say no to that when it’s happening? It’s easy for five years to go by when you’re doing that.

ES: What was the return to acting like?

JL: I think that the break from acting was the best thing I’ve ever done for myself as an actor. It’s almost like I started again from the beginning, but with a greater sense of myself, a greater sense of confidence in my choices. I think I became a much better actor.

ES: Is this a definite return to acting or will you stick with the band?

JL: This is the last film I’ll ever make.

ES: Really?

JL: I don’t know (laughs).
