JOLIET – The widow of a man gunned down in his garage three years ago was only able to see part of one suspect’s face through a doorway, she testified Thursday.

Graciela Gonzalez also failed to select Erik Hernandez from photo lineups in the days after the shooting, and she identified someone else during Erik a live lineup at Hernandez the Will County jail as the man she saw through a glass window, according to trial testimony.

Hernandez, 32, is being tried for the murder of Juan A. Gonzalez, 39, and the attempted murder of Ricardo Martinez.

About 9:30 p.m. March 19, 2012, Gonzalez and Martinez were in a garage attached to Gonzalez’s house in the 2500 block of Hacker Drive in unincorporated Crest Hill. The garage door was partly open and two armed men came in, police

said.

Hernandez allegedly ordered Martinez to face the door leading back to the house and shot him when his unidentified partner shot Gonzalez.

Martinez survived, but prosecutors say Hernandez is legally responsible for Gonzalez’s slaying by participating in the felony crime.

Gonzalez’s wife was watching television when she heard arguing in the garage. When she looked into the garage through a latticed window in the door, she saw Martinez facing her with his hands on the back of his head and another man standing behind him, she testified.

“Ricky’s head was obstructing his face. I saw parts of his face ... half-profile,” Graciela Gonzalez said Thursday.

Martinez was silently mouthing for Graciela to go away.

After the shooting, she called 911 and hid her daughter in a closet in the house.

The 911 call was played to the jury after Gonzalez testified. When she asks a wounded Martinez who’s responsible, he replied, “[Somebody’s]

friends” but does not name Hernandez, according to the recording.

Graciela Gonzalez testified she was unaware of her husband’s involvement in any drug deal. Martinez allegedly told another relative the dispute revolved around a $28,000 kilo of cocaine that was stolen, according to pretrial argument.

She also testified the handgun that police found in the laundry room by the garage hadn’t been there two days earlier and she didn’t know how it got there. Under cross-examination by defense attorney Chuck Bretz, Graciela Gonzalez acknowledged a bucket of bullets also found in the house had belonged to her husband.

A neighbor who lives around the corner from Hacker Drive was outside smoking a cigarette that night when two men cut through her backyard and walked very fast to the next street, she testified. She was not able to identify any suspects.

Three women who were identified as Hernandez’s girlfriends also testified Thursday.

One woman acknowledged buying a gold Chevrolet Impa-

IKEA planning for Joliet distribution facility – again

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – IKEA announced Thursday it will move forward with a plan first launched in 2007 to build a Midwest distribution center in Joliet.

The Sweden-based home furnishings retailer plans a 1.4 million-square-foot distribution center.

The facility would open in the Laraway Crossings Business Park, located at Illinois Route 53 and Laraway Road.

Construction would start in the fall, and the facility would open in 2017.

IKEA now operates a “temporary” distribution facility in Minooka, company spokesman Joseph Roth said. “That will eventually be folded into

Joliet,” he said.

Roth said IKEA always planned to open the Joliet facility, although the timing changed since it was first proposed to the city.

“We knew long-term that we needed a distribution center for the Midwest,” he said.

“We were able to find the ideal location in Joliet.”

He said the timing is right now because IKEA is adding stores. The company had 29 stores in the United States in 2007 and has 40 now. New stores coming to St. Louis, Memphis and Columbus, Ohio, also will be served by the Joliet facility.

The original plan was to build the Joliet facility in two phases, Roth said. IKEA now plans to build it all at the same

time.

Tweaks in the plan mean it will go back to the city of Joliet for approval again, Roth said.

The facility will be built on 72 acres and serve at least 10 IKEA stores, according to a news release from the company.

“We have known for some time now that Joliet was the perfect location for our distribution hub in the Midwest, so we are pleased our Midwestern presence has grown to the point where we need this terminal to be up and running in 2017,” IKEA U.S. CFO Rob Olson said in the news release.

“We appreciate the city of Joliet’s cooperation and patience that allowed us to plan longterm and reach this point today.”

la for $8,000 in 2011 and allowing Hernandez to use it regularly.

Another woman said Hernandez had driven to her workplace in that Impala and asked to borrow her black SUV on the night of the slaying. She said Hernandez was not acting suspiciously when he returned about 9:47 p.m.

Another woman testified Hernandez had accompanied her to their ultrasound appointment earlier that day and gone with her to the Fox Valley Mall afterward.

The trial is expected to continue Friday.

Speakers celebrate and support black literature, poems and songs

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com

JOLIET – Chyna Blocker recited her protest poem about marching in the face of racial discrimination and injustice at the African-American Read-in on Thursday.

Blocker, a Joliet West High School student, stood before a packed audience at the Jacob Henry Mansion in Joliet and read her poem “Let Me March.”

Through the poem, she told the audience of how people shouldn’t be discriminated against in their protest, which she said echoed the unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, last year.

“I’m tired of running,” she said in her poem. “I will not stand down. I will not let my people frown. Let me march.”

Blocker was one of several people who came to the African-American Read-in on Thursday night to read passages of literature, poems, essays and songs from black artists and thinkers. African-American Read-in is a national event held in February nationwide to commemorate Black History Month.

Thursday’s event was a collaboration between Joliet Township High School and the National Hook-Up of Black Women. Officiating the event was Chicago poet Roger Bonair-Agard, who teaches creative writing at the Cook County Juvenile Temporary Detention Center.

Blocker said her performance was one of her first protest poems.

“I thought it was really good,” she said. “I was really proud. I captivated the audience like I wanted to. They were understanding of how I truly felt.”

African-American Read-in is meant to highlight black voices, celebrate them and encourage people to read more, said Brian Conant, JTHS

curriculum director. Earlier Thursday, Joliet West and Central high schools had student read-in assemblies.

“This recognizes the sig-

nificance African-American voices have in literature,” he said. “We hope people hear an author they never heard before and go find more works

by that author.”

Deborah Summers, National Hook-Up of Black Women president, said African-American Read-in makes black voices visible in the community and encourages people to support them. Sum-

mers read a speech from Sojourner Truth called “Ain’t I a Woman?”

Youths are encouraged to participate any way they can, such as spoken word poetry, she said.

“They need models. They need to see it how it’s done, and they need to see others be successful,” she said.

One of those models would be Bonair-Agard, a Trinidad and Tobago native who authored four collections of poems. Bonair-Agard read not only his own work but poems and writings from other authors such as Frederick Douglass and Audre Lorde.

State seeks sponsors for summer food program Says Will County most underserved in Illinois

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Amy Bianco was showing interested guests Thursday afternoon how to use an online map tool to look up distribution sites for the state’s Summer Food Service Program, when she noticed there were none nearby to show.

She entered the Joliet address at 100 Manhattan Road, where the Illinois State Board of Education held the informational meeting on the program, into the tool and zoomed out three times before four food distributions sites popped up.

“Oh, we definitely need more sites here,” said Bianco, a program coordinator.

That example underscores the need for more Will County organizations to sponsor the Summer Food Service Program, which provides meals to needy areas throughout Illinois.

The program reimburses organizations, governments

or religious institutions that serve as sponsors that provide meals to children during the summer months through one or more distribution sites.

Raising awareness

ISBE partnered with the No Kid Hungry Illinois campaign to hold an informational session at the University of Illinois Extension Will County office Thursday. The goal was to get local government, faith and community organizations as well as volunteers to become sponsors and take advantage of the state funding.

But only one representative fitting that mold came, Shannon Jermal from Presence Saint Joseph Medical Center.

“We’re a Catholic health care provider, so we came to see how perhaps the hospital could in some way help the community,” Jermal said.

Other organizations that came were the Illinois Hunger Coalition, University of Illinois Extension and the North-

“We’re trying to get good community leaders to become sponsors.”

Amy Bianco Illinois State Board of Education Summer Food Program coordinator ern Illinois Food Bank, which already handles food supply for the program.

“We recently had an information session in East St. Louis and we had 15 organizations come,” Bianco said.

“Of course, you want more to come. The whole goal is to raise awareness.”

Needy county

One in five children in Illinois goes though food insecurity, according to ISBE statistics.

Will County was identified as the program’s most underserved county in Illinois, according to a formula used by ISBE based on a standard of one distribution site feeding

300 children.

Last year, Will County had 38 distribution sites. But ISBE calls for 195 sites in the area, based on the county’s under-18 population and the number of children that qualify for free and reduced lunch in schools.

Joliet District 86, Fairmont District 89 and Valley View District 365U were the only Will County sponsors of the program last summer, according to a list published by ISBE.

“We’re trying to get good community leaders to become sponsors,” Bianco said.

To qualify as a sponsor, the closest elementary school to the sponsor needs to have at least a 50 percent free and reduced lunch rate among its student population, although that could be flexible based on circumstance.

More information can be accessed at the program’s website at www.isbe.net/nutrition/htmls/summer.htm.

Will County OKs Arsenal Road overweight trucking permit increase

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Will County Board has unanimously approved an overweight limit increase for trucks on Arsenal Road to keep commerce moving into local intermodal yards.

Mark Schneidewind, manager for the Will County Farm Bureau, applauded the move during a public hearing at Thursday’s Will County Board meeting.

“We’d like to thank the County Board and the committees that have worked on putting this resolution forward,” he said. “The agriculture industry, along with a lot of other businesses, have relied very heavily on the overweight per-

mit.”

The development follows a decision last month by the Illinois Commerce Commission to shut down the railway crossing at Walter Strawn Drive, a major entry point to the CenterPoint Intermodal Center parks in Joliet and Elwood, where freight is moved between trains and trucks at two intermodal yards.

County-controlled Arsenal Road is a major alternative, but weight limits are lower there than what was allowed on Walter Strawn. Some grain already is being hauled elsewhere and there is a threat of businesses moving out, officials have said.

Ramona Ennabe, with Ennabe Logistics Inc., a small trucking and logistics compa-

“We’d like to thank the County Board and the committees that have worked on putting this resolution forward. The agriculture industry, along with a lot of other businesses, have relied very heavily on the overweight permit.”

Mark Schneidewind Will County Farm Bureau manager ny based in Downers Grove that specializes in overweight services, urged County Board

members to approve the increase prior to the vote.

The amendment is only good for 90 days because the county is concerned about future maintenance issues with heavier trucks on Arsenal Road. Weight limits on Arsenal Road will increase to 92,000 pounds per truck. The weight limit is now 88,000 pounds.

The amendment also creates a new fee structure for permits, replacing the per-trip permits with a daily permit at $50, a weekly permit at $250 and a monthly permit at $500.

The number of heavy trucks going onto Arsenal Road has spiked since the Walter Strawn crossing was closed. The county issued 7,300 overweight permits in the 11

days following the crossing shutdown. That compares to 16,000 permits for all of 2014.

Ennabe said outside the meeting she hopes the county lets Illinois take over Arsenal Road and its maintenance.

That would reduce the number of permits required by truckers from three to two.

With the new weight increase, trucking companies must obtain three separate permits from the village of Elwood, the state and the county.

Will County Executive Larry Walsh Sr. said county and state officials are discussing that as a long-term solution. In the meantime, something had to be done to give overweight trucks access to CenterPoint Intermodal Center in Joliet and Elwood, he said.

Grundy satisfied with insurance change she likes most about the onsite service is that the account manager rotates through the courthouse, the administration building and the highway department in an attempt to be accessible to all employees.

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Grundy County Personnel Committee Chairwoman Vicki Geiger said she is happy with the service provided by the county’s new insurance group, Williams-Manny Insurance Group, based in Rockford.

“Insurance is so confusing to so many,” Geiger said.

“One reason we went with Williams-Manny was because we wanted employees to have access to talk to someone faceto-face.”

Last May, Personnel Committee members and then-Human Resource Director Debra Johnson started a discussion about switching Grundy County’s insurance brokers, due to alleged communication and professionalism issues. The proposed change caused heated discussions.

In June, Morris-based Northern Insurance Group, which had been the county’s insurance broker for five years, was replaced by Williams-Manny Insurance Group.

“It’s nice to have a face to talk to,” she said. “Sure you can pick up the phone to call

Blue Cross Blue Shield, but I like to bring the paperwork and have someone who knows what questions to ask.”

Kathy Morris, account manager from Williams-Manny Insurance Group, sent out a letter to employees who receive insurance last year explaining the on-site visits, which are part of the services provided to the county. The letter also included dates and locations for on-site visits.

Will County rejects changes to outdoor lighting rules

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Will County Executive Larry Walsh Sr. cast a rare tie-breaking vote Thursday, killing a proposed rule change that would have regulated outdoor lighting deemed a hazard or nuisance.

The Will County Board voted 11-11 on the matter, with Walsh Sr. casting the tie-breaking vote.

The issue arose earlier this month during a Land Use & Development Committee meeting. Committee Chairman Tom Weigel, R-New Lenox, said he received a complaint about two upset neighbors shining lights onto

Grundy County Board Chairman David Welter said he believes the county has had better representation with the new group and more accessibility, which is what they looked for in an insurance group.

“What is hazardous?

What is a nuisance?”

Gretchen Fritz R-Plainfield each other’s property.

The breaking point was when one neighbor erected a lamppost and intentionally shined a floodlight straight into a neighbor’s bedroom window.

County Board member Jackie Traynere, D-Bolingbrook, was the first to speak out against the proposal, saying government was overstepping its bounds with the rule change.

The ordinance amendment states lighting “shall not create a hazard or nuisance” and that it should be “shielded whenever possible to prevent light and glare spillover to adjacent property and abutting right-of-way.”

From the other side of the aisle, Republican County Board member Gretchen Fritz of Plainfield said she agreed, arguing there’s no clear measurements that define whether lighting is hazardous.

“What is hazardous? What is a nuisance?” she said.

Neighbors should work things out on their own without government stepping in, said County Board member Bob Howard, a Democrat.

Rialto marquee committee still working on first meeting

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A committee formed to help the Rialto Square Theatre solve its marquee problem likely will hold its first meeting soon, a spokeswoman said.

The committee was announced on Jan. 28.

Spokeswoman Kelly Rohder said the first meeting was awaiting the Joliet City Council’s formal approval of two members. That happened on Tuesday, when the council approved Jan Quillman and

Michael Turk.

Rohder said Thursday she spoke with the two committee co-chairs, and they hope to release a meeting schedule soon. She noted that other committee members still need to be contacted before plans are finalized, but the “very preliminary” plan is to have three meetings that conclude by April 1.

“We need to confirm a location and schedule meetings,” Rohder said.

The committee was formed after the Rialto effectively lost two $350,000 donations to

But Rialto leaders decided against taking up Bergman’s offer because of the ongoing controversy over the marquee.

Rohder said the committee likely would gather information and present a report to the Will County Metropolitan Exposition and Auditorium Authority, which oversees the Rialto. The authority

1014 E. Washington St., Joliet

815-723-3011

would then decide what to do next.

On Jan. 28, Rialto General Manager Randy Green said the marquee was 75 percent completed and $197,000 worth of work was done. Green did not return calls Thursday for an update on the situation.

He previously has said the Rialto has paid the sign company $120,000.

As for the possibility that the city might request employees start paying a share of insurance premium costs, Benson said language indicates “the city may do this [in the future], not that it will.”

Benson said Lockport pays about $1.4 million in annual health insurance costs.

Other action

In other action, the City Council approved: • A resolution approving final plans for phase two of the Oak Creek subdivision expansion, which includes building 35 new single-family homes.

• A resolution authorizing a $39,948 contract with Reuttiger, Tonelli & Associates for phase two engineering services for a sidewalk and bicycle path construction project planned for Briggs and Division streets and Farrell Road.

• A resolution to execute a $1.28 million contract with PT Ferro Construction for a street resurfacing project for the Abbey Glen neighborhood, several areas along Illinois Route 7 and several downtown locations.

• A resolution authorizing the purchase of a new sewer cleaner for about $342,000, after trading in an old one for about $30,000.

Two charged in Joliet pizza delivery robbery

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Two men were arrested Wednesday after police say they stole pizzas and told a delivery driver they were armed.

Joliet Police Capt. Bob Briney said a 20-year-old Domino’s Pizza driver was sent to a residence in the 1100 block of Arthur Avenue and arrived at 8:27 p.m.

“No one answered the door,

but two men came from around the back of the residence and said they had a gun. One of them punched him in the face and body before they went into his vehicle and took a delivery bag containing two pizzas,” Briney said.

The victim called police and Officer Adam Stapleton followed footprints in the snow to a home in the 1100 block of Magnolia Avenue – one block west of the robbery.

Briney said the two men

there – Martel L. Poole, 26, and Rendell J. Booker, 26 – matched the description of the robbers.

After being questioned, they were arrested on charges of aggravated robbery, battery and criminal trespassing, according to Briney. Police also found proceeds from the robbery in Poole’s residence, he said.

Poole and Booker, of the 1100 block of Arthur Avenue, were booked into the Will County jail.

LOCKPORT – The Lockport City Council unanimously approved policy changes Wednesday that could affect employee health insurance and benefits, though there were questions as to whom the changes applied.

During the council’s regular meeting, City Administrator Benjamin Benson explained the updated policy – which includes a provision allowing the city to develop a plan to include employee contributions to health insurance premium costs – is for nonunion staff.

The city employs a little more than 100 people. Onethird of them are not part of the police or public works unions, according to Benson.

Other policy changes include how vacation time will be dispensed and rolled over, increased caps on accrued sick days that can be carried over year-to-year, and the exclusion of longevity awards and education incentives for employees hired after July 1.

The revised policy was presented for City Council review at its last regular meeting.

In the discussion before the vote Wednesday, Councilman Darren Deskin said he had received calls from union employees with concerns the

document did not sufficiently make a distinction between the city’s nonunion and union workers.

Benson cited two sections that make it clear the policy pertains only to personnel “not covered by collective bargaining agreements” and would not be “in conflict with existing collective bargaining agreements.”

City Attorney Tom Thanas said he was confident the term “collective bargaining” was common enough in Illinois to cover both the city’s police and public works union employees.

The city is set to enter negotiations with its public works employees’ and police officers’ unions in the spring. These provisions might be brought up with the unions at that time, Benson said after the meeting.

Present union agreements will expire in June.

Council Member Kelly Turner told Benson he also had received calls from concerned staff regarding possible increases in their portion of health care costs, as well as elimination of longevity awards and education incentives.

Benson said the policy clearly states that while current employees can continue to use these rewards and incentives,

Pilot Travel Centers Joliet spends a little extra plans Joliet location to keep business local

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Pilot Travel Centers plans to open a Joliet location.

Pilot, which has gas stations combined with diesel fuel for truckers, convenience stores and usually franchise restaurants on-site, would go on the southeast corner of Route 53 and Laraway Road.

The location is near CenterPoint Intermodal Center-Joliet and in the heart of an area that has developed in recent years with distribution centers and trucking businesses.

“It’s gangbusters,” said Joliet attorney Michael Hansen, who is representing Pilot and has represented other area developers. “And there’s more good development coming in the area.”

IKEA announced Thursday it is moving forward with a Midwest distribution center planned for the Laraway Crossings Business Park, located across Laraway Road from the proposed Pilot site.

Pilot would be on the other side of Route 53 from Route 66 Food n Fuel, a similar business that opened as the trucking market developed.

The Pilot project was approved by the Joliet Plan Commission on Thursday.

The project next goes to the

“They want to get going as soon as possible with construction. Then they want to open later this year, I’m sure.”

Michael Hansen Joliet attorney

Joliet City Council for approval.

The commission approved Pilot’s request to be exempt from the planned unit development process, which was required for the site when it was annexed into Joliet in 2006. Pilot also would be exempt from a 50-foot-wide landscape area along Laraway and Route 53, which was part of the annexation agreement.

City staff has recommended approval of the exemptions.

Hansen said the annexation agreement was made with the idea that the site would be used for warehouse development. Pilot plans a 30-foot-wide landscape area.

“They want to get going as soon as possible with construction,” Hansen said.

“Then they want to open later this year, I’m sure.”

The Pilot Travel Center would be built on a 9.2-acre site.

Precast Steps Iron Rails

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Joliet City Council this week spent an extra $2,579 on 16 vehicles to keep its business local.

Council members advocated bypassing the low bidders for police and fire department vehicles to give the business to local car dealers.

The council unanimously approved the purchases from local dealers that were the second-lowest bidders.

Staff recommended taking the low bids. But City Attorney Martin Shanahan

advised the council it had the authority to bypass the lowest bidders.

Councilman John Gerl, head of Joliet’s Public Safety Committee, said the committee reviewed the bids and “they felt that since there was such a small difference, the best thing to do was to keep these dollars local.”

Purchases included: • Eleven 2015 Ford Police Interceptor Utility allwheel drive cars from Rod Baker Ford in Plainfield for $304,246, instead of the low bid from Morrow Brothers Ford in Greenfield at

$303,140; • Two 2015 Ford Expeditions for the fire department for $60,466 from Ron Tirapelli Ford in Shorewood, instead of Landmark Ford in Springfield at $60,355; • Three Ford Taurus police cars from Ron Tirapelli Ford at $55,140, instead of Landmark Ford at $53,778.

Councilman Larry Hug commended the committee for its recommendation to keep the money in the local economy.

“Otherwise,” he said, “we would be stepping over a dollar to save a dime.”

In a Changing World, Some Things Never Change In changing times, it’s good to know some things haven’t changed — like Rathbun, Cservenyak & Kozol’s commitment to aggressive, competent legal representation that gets results.

COAL CITY

By JESSICA BOURQUE Shaw Media correspondent

“It’s totally been the kids’ project. They’ve been behind everything and it’s been a great learning experience for them.”

Betsy Cowherd Coal City teacher

The daunting price tag has not stopped them. With help from parents and teachers, they’ve organized a campaign through the online platform Kickstarter, which will launch Friday.

Kickstarter is a popular program used to crowdsource funding for creative projects.

Through the website, students set fundraising goals and make a pitch to potential donors. Their pitch includes a student-made video detailing why a new playground is important and how it will benefit the community.

The pitch also gives a de-

tailed description of how the donated money will be used.

If someone likes the pitch, he or she can pledge to back the project with any dollar amount. If enough money is pledged, the project moves forward. If not, the students will need to find another funding source.

“We had to find something where people could pledge money, but if the project didn’t make it, then they could still get their money back and it wouldn’t cost the school anything,” Cowherd said.

To encourage higher donations, the students came up with rewards for those who back the project, including T-shirts, thank you cards, a shout-out on the project website and more.

Cowherd said those who donate the most will be invited to the grand opening of the new playground and will be among the first to play on the new equipment.

“The challenge for them was thinking of rewards that wouldn’t cost too much addi-

tional money,” Cowherd said.

The group has dubbed the initiative “Project Play” and spent many months getting to this point.

Before the project was approved, the students made presentations to the Coal City School Board. They also learned about loans and other funding resources from local businesses, and researched the safety features needed for their equipment.

“It’s totally been the kids’ project. They’ve been behind everything and it’s been a great learning experience for them,” Cowherd said.

Coal City Intermediate School has scheduled an assembly for Friday where the students will launch the Kickstarter and excite the rest of the student body.

Cowherd said she will make the first pledge during the assembly to illustrate how it’s done.

Once the Kickstarter page is live, anyone can pledge.

“I’m super excited. I can’t wait until Friday because I’m so pumped,” Juliana said.

Swimmers to volunteer at animal rescue lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Jordan Hill will roll up her sleeves this Saturday with about 40 fellow Lewis University swim team members to offer some much-needed help at the Hopeful Tails animal rescue group in Joliet.

It’s a first for the swim team, said Hill, who also is a regular shelter volunteer.

But she hopes it can become a regular event. The animal rescue, 251 Republic St. in Joliet, is often short on volunteers.

Hill said volunteering not only counts toward community services hours, but gives the swim team an edge over other LU sports teams involved in a friendly competition this year to see who can accumulate the most volunteer hours.

“We compete with the other teams,” Hill said.

Know more For information about Hopeful Tails, visit www.hopefultailsanimalrescue.org or call 815-8232174. To volunteer, animal rescue staff requires an application form, available on the group’s website.

If you go Q WHAT: Hopeful Tails Pet Adoption Event Q WHEN: 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Saturday Q WHERE: PetSmart, 2775 Plainfield Road in Joliet

The swim team will clean kennels and paint the rescue shelter’s new maternity ward room for pregnant dogs, Hill said.

It’s rare for Hopeful Tails to get this level of help from large groups, said Tracey Stancik, a Hopeful Tails vol-

unteer. But Stancik said it’s a great opportunity for sports teams, community groups and clubs to earn community hours.

While the swim team is at the shelter, Stancik will take care of the shelter’s adoption event on Saturday at PetSmart in Joliet. Some swim team members will help there, too.

Those hoping to find Faith – the 8-week-old sick puppy stolen from the shelter earlier this week but later returned – at the adoption event will be out of luck, Stancik said.

“She’s still too young [for adoption],” Stancik said.

“We’ll start accepting applications March 1.”

COAL CITY – Coal City student Juliana Gomien loves swinging across monkey bars, climbing up slides and gliding on swings as much as the next fifth-grade kid.

But that’s no longer what she thinks about when she sees a playground.

She and a group of about 20 Coal City Intermediate School classmates have spent more than a year researching and designing a new playground for their school, which has left them with a deeper understanding of parks and play areas. “[Juliana and I] saw a play structure and our first thought was, ‘Wow, how much do you think this one cost,’” Juliana’s mother Terry Gomien said. “It was so cool.

That’s how they start thinking now. … They understand everything that goes into it because they’re going through this process themselves.”

The students are keenly aware of playground prices.

Many were surprised when they realized just how much it would cost to install new equipment at their school, said Coal City teacher and project leader Betsy Cowherd.

The idea to replace the school’s old playground germinated last year when Juliana and about 20 others students joined Coal City Intermediate School’s talented and gifted program.

Cowherd, the program leader, wanted students to work on a project that would enrich both the school and community.

They decided a new playground was sorely needed and would benefit everyone.

“We get stressed and just want to take a break and play during the school day, but we don’t really have much playground to play on,” said Juliana, who added that the current equipment is old and too small for many students.

To purchase and install the single-structure playground the students put together, they will need to raise at least $30,000.

Tax hike still possible as Illinois lawmakers tackle budget crisis The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Gov. Bruce Rauner’s first shot at an Illinois budget didn’t involve new taxes, but residents still could be asked to open their wallets in the future as part of an ultimate solution to the state’s budget crisis.

Top Democrats who control the Illinois Legislature say they’ll continue to push for a tax increase to avoid some of the huge cuts Rauner proposed Wednesday.

Though Rauner has opposed restoring the state’s now-expired income tax hike, he and other Republicans are leaving the door open to new revenue in some form as they try to close a more than $6 billion budget hole next year.

“I think he’s prepared to negotiate,” said Sen. Matt Murphy of Palatine, the GOP’s ranking member on the Senate appropriations committee.

The plan Rauner laid out Wednesday recommended balancing the budget entirely by slashing spending, including a $1.5 billion cut to Medicaid and a new pension plan he says could save $2.2 billion. Other cuts would hit mental health and addiction treatment and after-school programs.

Some of that was intended to set a tone, as Rauner scolded legislators for years of “bad decisions” and spending money Illinois can’t afford. But Rauner’s budget team also noted a tax increase wasn’t on the table anyway because the governor is obligated to present a balanced budget only based on revenue currently available.

The governor’s budget office indicated Wednesday that Rauner remains determined to overhaul the tax code and implement a new tax on services – both issues

“I think he’s prepared to negotiate.”

Sen. Matt Murphy R-Palatine he campaigned on last year.

The former private equity investor said during the campaign that he would be open to closing some corporate tax “loopholes,” such as a sales tax exemption on racehorses.

House Speaker Michael Madigan was among those calling for a blend of tax cuts and revenue, again pitching a new tax on incomes over $1 million. That plan would require voter approval to amend the state constitution, which imposes a flat income tax.

“In the Legislature, everything’s open for discussion,” the Chicago Democrat said.

Other Democratic legislators have pushed for raising the income tax rate once again. Those rates rolled back on Jan. 1, from 5 percent to 3.75 percent for individuals, reducing revenue by an estimated $5.7 billion next year.

Democrats say raising the rate, even to a level lower than 5 percent, could eliminate the need for cuts some legislators described as callous and irresponsible. Among Rauner’s recommendations was cutting money for heroin abuse treatment, mental health

care and health insurance for low-income people and eliminating educational programs for youths in the Department of Children and Family Services when they turn 18, rather than 21.

Madigan and Senate President John Cullerton also said it would be reckless to count on Rauner’s $2.2 billion in pension savings. That’s because there’s almost zero chance that a pension bill could pass the Legislature, survive an inevitable court challenge and be implemented in time for those savings to be realized next year.

Rauner’s proposed budget also assumes Illinois will be able to save money on health insurance for state workers.

However reducing those benefits or getting employees to pay a larger part of the costs is all subject to contract negotiations, which have barely gotten started.

Democratic leaders say they won’t carry the political burden for raising taxes on their own. But getting Republicans to vote “yes” on any tax increase likely will require Rauner’s blessing.

While some Republicans and Democrats insisted they’ll oppose an increase, others were more open-minded.

“It’s a process,” said GOP Sen. Mike Connelly of Naperville. “We’re going to be here for the next four months, at least, watching this unfold.”

Fifty years ago, Ford introduced the original Shelby GT350, and the 2015 GT350 on stage at the Chicago Auto Show carries the heritage forward.

It looks ready to launch, and features a high-revving 5.2-liter V-8 engine with 500-plus horsepower, a six-speed manual gearbox and a limited-slip differential to optimize cornering grip and straight-line traction.

While this track-oriented speedster might not be for you, there is a 2015 Mustang that will fit just fine. Ford is displaying all its 2015 lineup at the show, as well as your local dealership.

This review looks at new features of the iconic 2015 Mustang, the best-selling F-150, the Edge crossover and the popular Focus.

Mustang marked its own 50th birthday on April 17, 2014, and the 2015 version carries on the timeless original “pony car” design with long sculpted hood and short rear deck.

Dr. Ernest J. Sternglass, professor of radiation physics at the University of Pittsburgh, holds radiation charts Jan. 27, 1970, which will be shown on a British television program on pollution dust, in London. Sternglass, whose research helped make it possible for the world to see the first moon walk, has died at age 91 of heart failure. Sternglass died Feb. 12, 2015, in Ithaca, N.Y., Cornell University said. His research helped lead to a sensitive television camera tube that captured low-light lunar action during the 1969 moon landing and U.S. astronaut Neil Armstrong’s historic first steps.

Physicist whose work helped world watch first moon walk dies The ASSOCIATED PRESS ITHACA, N.Y. – Physicist Ernest Sternglass, whose research helped make it possible for the world to see the first moon walk, has died at age 91 of heart failure.

His research helped lead to a sensitive television camera tube that captured low-light lunar action during the 1969 moon landing and U.S. astronaut Neil Armstrong’s historic first steps.

Sternglass also conducted pioneering work in digital X-ray imaging during a long tenure at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, according to Cornell University, where Sternglass attended school and where his papers are archived.

Sternglass died Feb. 12 in Ithaca, New York, Cornell said. He was born in 1923 and fled Nazi Germany with his family in 1938.

As a 23-year-old Cornell graduate, he was work-

ing at the Naval Ordnance Laboratory in Washington, D.C., when he wrote to Albert Einstein in 1947 to offer an explanation on a scientific matter. To his surprise, he was invited to the famous scientist’s home in Princeton, New Jersey.

Einstein told the young researcher not to pursue a career in theoretical physics and advised him to, instead, “always keep a cobbler’s job” and do useful things. Sternglass went on to earn his master’s degree and his doctorate in applied and engineering physics from Cornell.

He was among the early scientists concerned with the health effects of atomic bomb testing. In 1963, he presented testimony to the Senate Atmospheric Test Ban Treaty hearing comparing atmospheric bomb testing with an unsafe level of X-ray exposure.

Sternglass’s second wife died in 2004. He is survived by a son, a daughter and four grandchildren.

The Chicago Auto show always has “wow,” and the Dodge display will be no exception.

Center stage, according to Dodge, will be given to the 2015 Charger Hellcat and Challenger Hellcat, vastly upgraded versions of the “basic” models, and with 707-horsepower monster 6.2-liter Hemi engines that Dodge says can rocket either from 0 to 60 miles per hour in under four seconds.

After the wow, however, the “real” stars emerge. These are the mainstays of the 2015 lineup, the vehicles you can sit in, examine thoroughly, ask about, collect materials on ... or do all that and take yours home from your local dealership.

The Dodge lineup includes the Challenger, Charger, Durango SUV, iconic Grand Caravan minivan, Dart, Journey and Viper. This review looks at Charger and Challenger, the “original” but always improved Grand Caravan, and everyone’s favorite four-door sedan, the Dart.

First, the “retro” Challenger gets a 1971-inspired exterior and new interior design features. Also new is a segment-first eight-speed automatic transmission, delivering up to 11 percent better fuel economy. Upgrades include an all-new Uconnect Access system with standard touchscreen, standard new 7-inch multi-view gauge cluster, new performance electronic shifter, and Keyless Enter ‘n Go with push-button start.

Power comes from a stellar trio: the base 305-horsepow-

er, 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6, the 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 with 375 hp, and the 6.4-liter Hemi with 485 hp. Both V-8s use Fuel Saver Technology that deactivates four cylinders when eight are not needed.

Charger and Challenger both offer SRT models, of which the Hellcats are the apex, but with more the “more manageable” 392-cubic inch (6.4-liter) Hemi V-8 with 485-horsepower (up from 470).

Linked to a segment-first eightspeed automatic, the Hemi comes standard with fuel saver technology that allows the engine to operate in four-cylinder mode. New Performance Packages allow drivers to tailor the driving experience by controlling horsepower, transmission shift speeds, paddle shifters, traction and suspension. Also standard is the largest front-brake package ever offered in a Dodge.

A new, driver-focused 2+3 cockpit is designed for true performance enthusiasts, and the trunk offers a respectable 16.2 cubic feet of cargo room.

Dodge re-sculpted the already sleek five-passenger Charger, adding LED lighting both front and rear. Upgraded rear-wheel-drive architecture offers new driver-selectable steering modes and improved suspension tuning. All models are standard with the eightspeed automatic.

Powerplants include the 3.6-liter V-6 Pentastar, 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 on the R/T, and the 6.4-liter Hemi V-8 in the SRT 392 and R/T Scat Pack models.

Other availables are a segment-exclusive BeatsAudio

(Left) A distinctive athletic stance and available class-exclusive multimedia technology are just two reasons the 2015 Dodge Dart is a leader in the compact car segment.

system, new class-exclusive 8.4-inch touchscreen media center with Uconnect Access system, and new class-exclusive 7-inch DID cluster, electronic shifter and Keyless Enter ‘n Go with push-button start.

The Dart four-door sedan – ranked No. 1 in quality among compacts -- adds a new Tigershark 2.4-liter MultiAir engine that makes it a Partial Zero Emission Vehicle (PZEV). Engines also include the Tigershark 2.0-liter, and a 1.4-liter MultiAir Intercooled Turbo. The I4s can be linked to a six-speed manual, six-speed Powertech automatic or dual dry clutch six-speed automatic transmission, with highway fuel economy ratings of up to 41 mpg.

The Dart’s Uconnect Touch 8.4-inch touchscreen radio is updated to include Android smartphone compatibility for Bluetooth, voice command and streaming music and USB

connectivity.

The iconic Grand Caravan just gets better, now offering an industry-first dual-screen Blu-Ray DVD video system with four-time higher resolution on Crew and R/T models.

Power is the Pentastar 3.6-liter V-6 mated to a six-speed automatic, which offer a best-inclass 3,600-pound tow rating.

Integrated Trailer Sway Damping is standard on all models.

The available Safety Sphere Package includes rear park assist system; rear backup camera, blind-spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path detection system, rain-sensitive wipers and automatic headlamps. The highly-favored Super Stow ‘n Go seating allows for cargo space of 143.8 cubic feet with third and middle seats folded down.

Lawmakers push renewable energy proposal for state

SPRINGFIELD – Lawmakers want to increase the share of clean energy consumed in Illinois with a bill they say will bring jobs to the state.

A bill announced Thursday creates new standards for Illinois utilities to use efficiency measures to reduce electricity demand 20 percent by 2025.

It also sets a higher figure for renewable energy purchased by updating the state’s regulation for the production of energy from renewable, such as wind, solar and biodiesel.

Proponents said the measure will add 32,000 jobs every year to the state because of the higher demand for renewable sources such as wind and solar.

The impact the bill could have on the coal industry in Illinois remains to be seen, but at least one downstate lawmaker fears increased regulation will hurt coal-related jobs.

The bill “sets Illinois energy policy” and calls for increasing state renewable energy standards to 35 percent by 2030, said State Rep. Elaine Nekritz.

The current standard is 20 percent by 2025.

Oral arguments scheduled in state pension lawsuit

SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois Supreme Court has announced it will hear oral arguments March 11 in the state’s landmark pension-overhaul case.

Arguments will begin at 2:30 p.m. in the high court chamber in downtown Springfield.

Jonathan Koepke, vice president and general manager of ENCAP Inc., talks Jan. 28 about eroded banks and the joint project between the McHenry County Conservation District and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to restore 3.5 miles of Nippersink Creek and 507 acres of prairies and wetlands in Ringwood. Most of the to-do list focuses on rebuilding the creek’s banks, installing artificial rapids designed to aerate the water and raise the water line, and mowing down large sections of invasive species such as buckthorn that have pushed out native species and kept new oak and hickory trees from growing.

pension programs built by years of underfunding.

Several beneficiaries – state workers, retired teachers and others – filed a lawsuit and a Sangamon County circuit judge found the law unconstitutional last fall. The judge ruled that the law violated a provision prohibiting reducing or impairing pension allowances. The law slightly reduced retirement-fund contributions but also decreased benefits.

Lawmaker wants Jackie Robinson West win restored

SPRINGFIELD – The controversy over Chicago’s Jackie Robinson West Little League national championship has reached the Illinois Statehouse.

State Rep. Monique Davis introduced a resolution Thurs-

day calling on Little League International to reinstate the championship victory for the all-black youth baseball team.

The Chicago Democrat said she also wants all league teams to be scrutinized as closely as Jackie Robinson West. Davis said it was “unfair” to strip the title and wants all the teams “held to the same standard.”

The league stripped the team of its title last week after officials said an investigation found Jackie Robinson West officials falsified boundaries to add ineligible players.

Little League International has said its decision is final.

Rockford man pleads not guilty in quadruple homicide

ROCKFORD – A 22-yearold Rockford man pleaded

not guilty Wednesday in the shooting deaths of four people, including two young children.

The Rockford Register Star said Calvin L. Carter is charged in the Dec. 20 slayings of 24-year-old Martia Flint; her boyfriend, 24-year-old Demontae Rhodes; and Flint’s two sons, 6-year-old Tyrone Smith III and 4-year-old Tobias K. Smith. They were found dead in a Rockford apartment.

Authorities said Carter, 22, previously had a relationship with Flint.

A not-guilty plea previously was entered on behalf of Carter by a Winnebago County judge. He turned himself in to authorities on a retail theft charge in St. Clair County in December, according to authorities.

Carbondale man gets 25 years in shooting on campus

CARBONDALE – A 19-year-old Carbondale man will spend 25 years in prison for a shooting that seriously injured one person outside a high school.

Omari Tinsley was sentenced Wednesday in the Jan. 27, 2014, shooting at Rebound High School in Carbondale. He was convicted of aggravated battery with a firearm. He also was charged initially with attempted first-degree murder and aggravated discharge of a firearm.

Tinsley shot a fellow student’s father in the stomach after an altercation with the man’s son in the school parking lot. The Southern Illinoisan said Jerome Merriweather’s injuries will require long-term care.

Various healthy fruits and vegetables are displayed for sale at a market in Washington. A government advisory committee is recommending the first real limits on added sugars, but backs off stricter ones for salt and cholesterol intake.

Healthful diet report: Sugary drinks out; coffee and eggs in

By MARY CLARE JALONICK The Associated Press WASHINGTON – An extra cup or two of coffee may be OK after all. More eggs, too. But you definitely need to drink less sugary soda. And, as always, don’t forget your vegetables.

Recommendations Thursday from a government advisory committee call for an environmentally friendly diet lower in red and processed meats. But the panel would reverse previous guidance on limiting dietary cholesterol. And it said the caffeine in a few cups of coffee actually could be good for you.

The committee also is backing off stricter limits on salt, although it said Americans still get much too much. It’s recommending the first real limits on added sugar, saying that’s especially a problem for young people.

The Agriculture and Health and Human Services Departments will take those recommendations into account in writing final 2015 di-

etary guidelines by the end of the year. The guidelines affect nutritional patterns throughout the country – from federally subsidized school lunches to food package labels to your doctor’s advice.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said “it is by no means over” with the release of the report. The government will take comments on the advice before distilling it – and possibly changing it – into final guidelines for consumers.

Even with the changes, the report sticks to the basic message of the previous guidelines in 2010: Eat more fruits and vegetables and whole grains; eat less saturated fat, salt and sugar.

The report said dietary cholesterol now is “not considered a nutrient of concern for overconsumption.” This follows increasing medical research showing the amount of cholesterol in your bloodstream is more complicated than once thought.

The committee said available evidence “shows no appreciable relationship” be-

tween heart disease and how much dietary cholesterol you eat, but it still recommends eating less saturated fat. As in previous years, the report advises limiting saturated fats to 10 percent of total calories.

The panel doesn’t give a specific recommendation for how much cholesterol – or eggs – a person may eat.

Added sugars should be around 200 calories a day – about the amount in one 16-ounce sugary drink, said the advisory committee, which is made up of doctors and nutritionists.

The recommendation is part of a larger push in recent years to help consumers isolate added sugars from naturally occurring ones like those in fruit and milk. Added sugars generally add empty calories to the diet.

Americans now get about 13 percent of their calories from added sugar, or 268 calories a day, the committee says.

Older children, adolescents and young adults generally take in more. The committee recommends 10 percent.

Pro-Russia rebels walk Thursday in Debaltseve, eastern Ukraine, after weeks of relentless fighting forced government soldiers to flee the embattled Ukrainian rail hub. ment-held city of Artemivsk.

The soldiers inside described weeks of harrowing rebel shelling, followed by a hasty retreat.

“We left under heavy fire, driving on back roads,” said a soldier who gave only his first name, Andrei. “As we were leaving, we were attacked by artillery and grenade launchers. We came un-

der repeated attack by tanks and assault groups.”

As rebels waved separatist flags, Nikolai Kozitsyn, a Russian Cossack leader and prominent warlord in the rebel-controlled east, drove around in a Humvee-like vehicle captured from Ukrainian troops.

Immigrants feel stuck after judge blocks Obama orders

By ASTRID GALVAN The Associated Press TUCSON, Ariz. – Brenda Armendariz, her husband and their two Mexico-born children were hoping to resolve their constant fears of being deported after President Barack Obama issued his latest executive orders on immigration.

But now that a federal judge in Texas has blocked Obama’s efforts to protect 4 million more immigrants, her family is disillusioned and her children feel stuck as the president’s offer of temporary legal status moves frustratingly beyond their reach.

About a third of the immigrants now living in the United States illegally would be eligible for temporary protection if Obama’s latest orders are upheld in court, either because they were brought to the U.S. as children or because their own

Brenda Armendariz, originally from Mexico, sits in her home Wednesday, in Tucson, Ariz. children have legal status in the country.

But the advances and retreats on reform have been so frequent over the years that many thousands of immigrants who already are eligible for protection have given up for now – they aren’t applying for the work

permits and Social Security numbers they are entitled to under Obama’s first executive order in 2012.

There is a litany of reasons why, including general distrust of the government, fear they’ll be deported, and the nearly $500 in fees it costs to apply. But the constant uncertainty created by Washington’s political divide also keeps them away.

About 150 people have reached out to Arizona immigration attorney Lance Wells this week, reacting with bafflement, fear and dismay to the latest reversal, he said.

His message: “Be patient, guys. We kind of knew this would be coming.”

But their patience is wearing thin.

Armendariz and her husband came to Tucson a decade ago with a son and daughter, meaning to stay just long enough to earn some cash and head home to the Mexican state of Sono-

ra. Instead, they overstayed their visas and settled down.

Those children now are 21 and 13, joined by two American citizen siblings: a 3-yearold boy and a one-month-old girl.

Like so many other immigrants, this family has “mixed status,” and the mother, father and two oldest children didn’t qualify for protection under Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA program, nearly three years ago.

With the goal of keeping such families together, Obama’s executive orders announced in November would have applied to the older siblings starting Wednesday, and the parents starting May.

By ALICIA CHANG The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – A “superbug” outbreak suspected in the deaths of two Los Angeles hospital patients is raising disturbing questions about the design of a hard-to-clean medical instrument used on more than half a million people in the U.S. every year.

At least seven people – two of whom died – have been infected with a potentially lethal, antibiotic-resistant strain of bacteria after undergoing endoscopic procedures at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center between October and January.

More than 170 other patients may also have been exposed, university officials said.

The infections may have been transmitted through at least two contaminated endoscopes used to diagnose and treat pancreatic and bile-duct problems. The instruments were found to have “embedded” infections even though they had been sterilized according to manufacturer instructions, said Dr. Robert Cherry, UCLA Health System’s chief medical and quality officer. Five other devices were cleared.

Hospital officials said they immediately removed contaminated devices and adopted more stringent sterilization techniques.

Health officials sought Thursday to reassure the public there is no broad danger.

“This outbreak is not a threat to public health,” said Dr. Benjamin Schwartz, deputy director of acute communicable disease control and prevention for the LA County Department of Public Health.

Infections of carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae, or CRE, have been reported at hospitals around the country, and some have been linked to the type of endoscopes used at UCLA. The duodenoscope is a thin, flexible fiber-optic tube that is inserted down the throat to enable a doctor to examine an organ. It typically has a light and a miniature camera.

DEBALTSEVE, Ukraine – For the rebel fighters who seized control of this strategic town, Thursday was a day of jubilation and bragging of victory. The retreating Ukrainian soldiers were grim, stunned and relieved to have escaped with their lives as the scope of their losses became clearer: at least 13 dead and hundreds missing, captured or wounded.

Rebel fighters roamed the debris-littered streets of Debaltseve, laughing, hugging and posing for photos a day after the fall of the furiously contested railway hub.

Associated Press journalists found its neighborhoods destroyed and all under the control of the rebels.

On the road out of town, dozens of Ukrainian military vehicles, many riddled with bullet holes and with their windshields smashed, were heading to the govern-

mored vehicles. Rebel fighters, many of them Cossacks, searched through the bunkers and tents of an abandoned military encampment, looking to salvage equipment and clothing left behind.

Two rebel fighters inspected an abandoned tank, declaring it a “gift” from the Ukrainian army. They then grabbed a bloodied blue-andyellow Ukrainian flag and ground it into the frozen earth with their boots.

But in a reminder of the dangers, one vehicle carrying Cossacks hit a land mine, killing one rebel fighter and wounding another.

Cossacks, who spearheaded imperial Russia’s expansion and helped guard its far-flung outposts, trace their historic roots to both Ukraine and southern Russia. They faced persecution under Bolshevik rule but resurfaced after the 1991 Soviet collapse and are now recognized in Russia as an ethnic group who consider themselves descendants of the czarist-era horsemen.

OUR VIEW

Thumbs-up: to JJC students’ aid to community The Herald-News Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs-up and thumbs-down: Thumbs-up: To Joliet Junior College interior design students redecorating space for MorningStar Mission in Joliet. The eight students are redecorating a Joliet four-bedroom tri-level – donated anonymously to the mission – that soon will become home to three unwed mothers and, possibly, their small children. It’s the fourth time JJC and MorningStar Mission have teamed together for such a project, and it’s win-win all around. The students get real-world experience, and MorningStar Mission staff and clients get a place to stay that has an extra-special touch.

We’d love to see more community partnerships like this.

Thumbs-down: To whoever it was who stole a sick puppy from the Hopeful Tails animal shelter earlier this week. To take an animal in need of a home from a shelter whose mission it is to find decent homes for pets is a saddening low. At least someone had the decency to return the dog once the sick pup became a media darling throughout the Chicago area. Next time, if you want a pet, do the right thing. Talk to the shelter. They no doubt would find a way to get you one relatively easily.

Thumbs-up: to Carlos Matlock, who was recognized last week by the Exchange Club of Joliet as the 2014 Police Officer of the Year. Matlock, a police officer for more than 20 years, successfully closed 152 of the 164 cases assigned to him last year. Police Chief Brian Benton described Matlock as the “true model of a police detective” and as “one of the most reliable members of our department.” Matlock said he is humbled and grateful for the recognition. We are grateful to have detectives such as Matlock in our community and on our police force.

Thumbs-up: to Mary Ann Burns, bereavement coordinator at Joliet Community Hospice, as well as the other community members who shared their stories of grief and healing for a post-Valentine’s Day story – Ed Selvas of New Lenox, Martha Schoffstoll of Shorewood, Cliff Erwin of Shorewood, Jeanne Noonan of Naperville and Myra Stuart of Joliet. It takes courage to be that transparent and vulnerable, and to do it so others may find that same place of serenity, acceptance and new life is inspiring. Fewer people would feel isolated if more people reached out in this way.

AMENDMENT

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR MADIGAN SHOULD GIVE UP BEING HOUSE SPEAKER

CITIZENS UNITED EQUALS LEGALIZED BRIBERY

To the Editor:

To the Editor:

Congratulations on writing about state Rep. Michael Madigan, D-Chicago, in the “Our View” editorial in the Jan. 25 edition of The Herald-News.

How could any politician keep Rep. Madigan as speaker of the House for 30 years when my state of Illinois has been going downhill for so many years?

If Rep. Madigan was a loyal citizen of Illinois, he should have given up being speaker years ago since Illinois was operating in the red.

Any politician who has served 15 or more years should give up his or her office. It’s too easy to serve in government without giving favors under the table for dollars to be re-elected. That’s why the president cannot serve more than eight years.

Let’s wake up, people, before another country takes over our USA government.

The public recently was informed that the Koch network is poised to spend $900 million on the upcoming presidential and congressional races in 2016. The Koch brothers’ combined wealth has been estimated at $80 billion, and they have requested the presence of 300 like-minded billionaires and multimillionaires to join them at their winter donor retreat in Palm Springs, California. Three presidential hopefuls (Cruz, Paul, Rubio) also will be in attendance.

The $900 million goal will allow the Koch-sponsored political network to operate at the same financial level as the Democratic and Republican parties. This untenable situation is the result of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Citizens United (2010), which equated money with free speech.

This ruling allows wealthy elites to exert their dominance over the political process.

Congressmen, in order to retain

Art Mackay Joliet

their House and Senate seats, spend an inordinate amount of time “begging at the feet of the wealthiest donors.” Zephyr Teachout, assistant professor of law at Fordham, has called this “legalized bribery” that results in elected officials serving the interests of campaign donors and ignoring the interests of the American people. The voices, needs and aspirations of the poor, working and middle classes are silenced by the shouting of corporate CEOs, the rantings of the upper 1 percent and the functionaries who serve them.

Limits must be placed on the amount of money private interests can spend to influence Congress.

Citizens United must be appealed and its sanctioned “legalized bribery” should be replaced by the public financing of elections. If this is not done, our already-compromised democracy will be destroyed, and we will be ruled by a wealthy oligarchy.

Hibbert to have snow flying at Route 66

By TIM CRONIN

Tucker Hibbert won his 100th career race earlier this season and will look to add another victory to his resume this weekend in the Hollywood Casino Snocross National at Route 66 Raceway in Joliet.

Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – The easy way to describe snocross is a combination of motocross and snowmobile racing.

But that does not do it justice. A snocross sled is a snowmobile on steroids.

The rooster tails of snow fly backwards as fast and as far as the machines themselves go through the air at 60 mph.

Precise and out of control at the same time, snocross arrives at Route 66 Raceway on Friday for a two-day stay in the form of the Hollywood Casino Snocross National, the sixth of eight competitions on the International Series of Champions tour. There are races in five pro divisions on both Friday and Saturday night.

Tucker Hibbert The face of that tour – indeed the face of snocross in general – is Tucker Hibbert, a mild-mannered 30-year-old from Pelican Rapids, Minn.

Mild-mannered, that is, until he puts his hands on the handlebars and floors it. Then he’s the man to beat. Nobody has won more big-league snocross races – 102 – than Hibbert, and that doesn’t include his seven straight titles in the Winter X Games, or his summer success in motocross.

He’s won seven of the 10 ISOC races this season, including the last three.

The second race at Deadwood, South Dakota, the 100th victory of his career, featured him coming from last to first.

The back-to-back wins a fortnight ago in Seneca Allegany, New York, were more conventional. Hibbert leads the Pro Open standings with 426 points to Canadian Tim Tremblay’s 340 and the 329 of Ross Martin of Burlington, Wisconsin.

Odds are, Hibbert will lead the way here. Racing is ingrained with him. His father, Kirk, who had substantial success in snowmobile racing, is his chief mechanic. Tucker’s wife, Mandi, is his publicist. A crew of no more than eight makes it all happen.

“It’s just a combination of all the small details,” Hibbert said of his success. “What people see on the weekend, that’s just a small window on what we do. The week is spent on the test track and in the race shop. All those people are working so hard.”

Other teams work as hard, but the only other Pro Open winners this season are Kody Kamm of Kenosha, Wis-

INAUGURAL HOLLYWOOD CASINO SNOCROSS NATIONAL

Snow flies at the starting line as a Snocross National race begins. Local fans can see the action this weekend at Route 66 Raceway in Joliet. consin, Kyle Pallin of Ironwood, Michigan, and Martin.

Winning 100 of anything is impressive. To do so in motorsports, where so much is dependent on mechanical good fortune – and join a group that includes Richard Petty and John Force – is amazing.

“It was an awesome night,” Hibbert said of that Saturday in Deadwood. “I’d lost the last three in a row, but I guess I couldn’t have picked a better race to do it.”

Hibbert burst out of the starting gate in front but was spun in the first turn and ended up in the snow, his Arctic Cat toppled. It was righted, and he set off in hot pursuit of Martin, Pallin and Kamm, who were over a half-lap ahead with 21 circuits remaining.

One by one, he picked off other riders. He was ninth with 14 laps to go, fifth with 10 left, and then came the big

move.

“I just put my head down,” he said. “I found some good lines to run on.”

Hibbert roared down the outside, where few others ventured, and passed Martin with a little over a lap to go for No. 100.

“It wasn’t a goal, but I’m honored to have that many wins,” Hibbert said.

And it came on a tight track, the opposite of what Hibbert prefers. The Route 66 setup is more expansive but still is largely squeezed into the grandstand area of the track.

“It’s a pretty intimate environment,” said track president Scott Paddock, for whom the weekend is the culmination of eight months of planning. “This is high-flying action. At 60 mph, they’ll jump the length of an NBA court.”

The Pro Open division is only the tip of the snowdrift. There’s a Pro Lite bracket, one for women, and a host of

SPORTS SAFETY

Doctor said Joliet Jaguars’ Ryan Wengler, 12, knew how to help himself

By KAITLYN JASNICA

Ryan Wengler of the Joliet Jaguars PeeWee NIHL Scott team moves the puck. He told his coaches about a potential concussion and saved himself from what could have been a much more serious situation. bone because if you break it again, the chances of healing is less and the process is more complex.”

Chwajol, who emphasizes the importance of teaching area athletes about concussion safety, works with the Joliet Jaguars youth hockey club. Since “imPACT baseline testing” is mandatory to play for the Jaguars, Chwajol tests each player in case they sustain a head injury in the season.

Young brains develop at a fast pace, so it is important that athletes ages 8 to 18 are tested every year. If an athlete is tested in eighth grade and not as a freshman, an imPACT test result would not show accurate results. The results still could be higher with a concussion since the brain has developed.

Chwajol also talks with players and parents, informing them about concussion symptoms and giving them his contact information in case they have questions. He hands out fliers at the Jaguars games in case an opposing team’s parent does not know enough about the injury.

EDUCATION MATTERS

So does simply talking to players and doing a preseason imPACT test make much of a difference? Ask the Jaguars’ Ryan Wengler.

The 12-year-old sustained a concussion earlier in this season in practice when he fell to the ice after a teammate jokingly hit him from behind with his elbow. Wengler immediately experienced a headache, dizziness, nausea and blurred vision in his right eye.

Instead of continuing to practice, Wengler went to his coach and asked to sit. Afterward, the club’s athletic trainer told him that he had concussion symptoms and should see a doctor.

Before the season, Wengler’s PeeWee NIHL Scott team went to the hospital with parents and learned about the concussion symptoms and what can cause them. Since Wengler knew details about concussions, he immediately stopped playing.

“At first I might have tried to hide it [the concussion] a little bit if the coach didn’t notice, because I would’ve

wanted to finish the practice,” Wengler said. “But now I know if I fall again, I might get hurt again.”

When Wengler went to the doctor, the injury was confirmed as a concussion. Even though it was difficult for him to watch his team play in a state tournament without him, he had to sit out for a month and was unable to start practicing until after he was symptom-free for a week.

During the three weeks he had symptoms, his parents limited the amount of TV he watched and took away his cellphone. His parents knew that since he had a concussion, he had to stay away from stimuli.

Wengler also tried to stay in darker rooms because light also hurt.

When Wengler felt better, he took the imPACT test again and the results came back stronger. Most importantly, Wengler felt normal. Since he knew about concussions and stopped playing before he could sustain second-impact syndrome, he is able to play in his upcoming St. Patrick’s Day tournament.

• Friday, February 20, 2015

JOLIET – In almost any sports magazine, there has been at least one concussion article published in the past year.

Concussions have been in the media constantly the past few years, and every athlete knows about the dangers. But has enough been done to educate young athletes?

Since there is no pill or exercise that can prevent the injury, it is important that athletes, parents, coaches and organizations know what the concussion symptoms are, because acknowledging concussions is the only way they can be treated.

The biggest indicator of a concussion is that a player does not feel normal. The physiological change that comes from concussions causes symptoms such as headaches, blurred vision and nausea.

In some cases, the symptoms do not appear immediately after impact.

If any symptoms appear, an athlete has to stop playing – because playing with a concussion is extremely dangerous, said Dr. Markus Chwajol, a neurosurgeon at Presence Neuroscience Institute in Joliet.

“It’s extremely important to detect symptoms of concussions for one reason: If a player sustains a concussion, you want to prevent another hit while the brain is recovering,” Chwajol said. “We want to prevent second-impact syndrome, because it can lead to long-lasting or permanent complications, and at times it can be lethal. Players may never recover from them, and they could have been prevented. They could have recovered and could have returned to play had they been taken out and diagnosed properly.

“It’s similar to having a broken bone that has yet to heal, and somebody breaks it again,” Chwajol added. “You don’t get to play with a broken

Wengler thinks it is important that every athlete stops playing if they believe they have a concussion.

He also knows it’s important for an athlete not to lie in order to go back and play their sport.

“It’s better to go ask them what’s happening before it’s too late,” Wengler said. “My mom always used to tell me, because she knew that I wanted to get right back and play, that if I had a symptom that I had to tell her and I couldn’t be lying so I could go back in. She thought that if I came back early because I lied to her, that I could get a very serious brain injury even further along than the concussion. Tell someone about it before it becomes a bigger issue. If I didn’t tell my mom and coach about these things, I could’ve been out for three or four months.”

Chwajol agrees.

“I want the kids to get the message and understand that by not telling the coaches and parents that they don’t feel well – that they don’t feel like themselves – that they are really jeopardizing their own careers,” Chwajol said.

“It’s as simple as telling the coach or parent that they have a headache or that they don’t feel like themselves. There’s nothing wrong with not playing for a week or two weeks.

You can jeopardize your own career, but you can’t with your health.

“For the coaches and parents, seek ways to educate yourselves,” Chwajol added.

“There are so many ways available now through the Internet and through local means like us here at the Neuroscience Institute, or literature. There are articles on concussions in almost every sports magazine, and I encourage people to educate themselves.”

IHSA GIRLS BOWLING TOURNAMENT PREVIEW

Lockport, Joliet West shoot for stars at state Lincoln-Way West also among the 24 teams qualified for the tourney

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com In late January, Joliet West seniors Kayla Kurowski and Sarah Heffron led the way as the Tigers rolled past Lockport to win the SouthWest Suburban Blue Girls Bowling Tournament and the overall conference championship.

In the past two weeks, the Porters – with senior Kierstin Vandenburg and junior Nikki Mendez showing the way – have bowled well enough to have observers suggesting they may be the best team in the state.

Whether the No. 1 team will be Lockport, Joliet West or someone else will be determined this weekend in the Girls State Bowling Tournament at The Cherry Bowl in Rockford.

In addition to the Tigers and Porters, the Joliet area will be represented in the 24-team field by Lincoln-Way West. The field will be trimmed to the top 12 teams after Friday’s six games for the final six games Saturday.

In addition, 30 individuals statewide who are not members of qualifying teams will compete at state, with the top 30 individuals not on advancing teams continuing for six more games Saturday. Among the individual qualifiers are Lemont senior Kyra Udziela, who is making her third consecutive trip to state, Plainfield South junior Paige Kwiatkowski and Bolingbrook senior Felicia Montecinos.

West shot 6,264 to Lockport’s 6,046 in the SWS Blue Tournament at Strike & Spare II in Lockport, when Kurowski and Heffron finished at the top of the leader board for a team that generally is led by juniors Gracie Plese and Taylor Bailey.

Since then, West won the Streator Regional with a 5,439 score and grabbed the fourth and final spot at last week’s Plainfield Central Sectional at Plainfield Lanes with a 5,704 total. That was good enough to hold off Morris, which shot 5,640, for the final state berth.

Meanwhile, Lockport has stayed home at Strike & Spare II the last two weeks and has taken full advantage.

The Porters shot 6,221 to win the Lemont Regional by nearly 600 pins and shot 6,372 to win its sectional by 640 pins over the nearest pursuer. Lincoln-Way West finished fourth at 5,510, edging Richards by 12 pins for the final qualifying berth.

Those results have helped thrust

“Every tournament you go to, the name of the game is making spares. If you do that consistently, you will be in good shape.”

Jeff Bailey Joliet West girls bowling coach Lockport into the discussion as a title contender. Rightfully so.

However, bowling in any tournament remains as unpredictable as the weather. Everyone starts from zero, and you never know how lane conditions may play into what transpires on a given day or weekend.

“Every tournament you go to, the name of the game is making spares,” West coach Jeff Bailey said. “If you do that consistently, you will be in good shape.”

“Spares are always important,” Tigers junior Melissa March said after the sectional. “Teams that were above us along the way today were making theirs. We made them the last game, when it was the most important.”

West is making its second straight state appearance. The Tigers were 10th a year ago, just ahead of Lockport, which finished 11th.

Of course, the Porters, under coach Art Cwudzinski, have continued the school’s rich bowling tradition. Lockport has three state titles on its resume, the most recent in 2009.

Cwudzinski coaches what undoubtedly is one of the state’s deepest teams.

The Porters’ five sectional bowlers were Vandenburg, Mendez, senior Danielle Mensik, sophomore Paige Reiter and freshman Bailey Delrose.

Sophomores Dana Ackerson and Grace Karraker and junior Abby Turnbough round out the tournament team.

Joliet West’s lineup consists of Bailey, Heffron, March, Kurowski and Plese, with sophomore Karlee Barton and juniors Jackie Boyce and Kaylee Zukovich also on the tournament team.

Junior Jessica Schram leads the way for Lincoln-Way West. Juniors Ellie Paul and Deena Barber and sophomore Haley Jablonski also are keys to the lineup. Sophomore Makayla Turner, freshman Emily Paul and junior Kayla Madey complete the tournament roster.

IHSA BOYS BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT SEEDS

Plainfield North is seeded 3, Providence 4 in Bolingbrook Sectional

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com

Regionals in Class 4A and 3A begin March 2. One of the 1-4 seeds and one of the 5-8 seeds in each sectional complex will be assigned to each regional. The regional hosts are Joliet West, Yorkville, Romeoville and Lincoln-Way North.

If seeds hold, Providence would face Neuqua the next week in one sectional semifinal, with Bolingbrook and Plainfield North tangling in the other.

Oswego (15-11) garnered the 5 seed, followed by 6 Plainfield

East (13-10), 7 Joliet Central (11-11) and 8 Minooka (13-14).

Other area seeds are 9 Joliet West (11-12), 11 Lincoln-Way East (9-12), 13 Lockport (7-14), 14 Plainfield South (9-16), 15 Romeoville (8-15), 16 Plainfield Central (7-18) and 19 Lincoln-Way Central (4-18).

In Class 3A, where the 22 teams in the Rich East Sectional already have been placed in regionals, Lincoln-Way West (17-5) is No. 1 and Joliet Catholic (14-12) is No. 4 at Coal City.

Morris (16-8) earned the 2 seed and Plano is 3, with Sandwich

5 and Coal City 6.

Lincoln-Way West and Morris will have byes in the feed-in round. JCA would meet West in the semifinals. That’s where they met a year ago, and the Hilltoppers scored a victory that fueled their postseason run, ending in the sectional final.

Also in Class 3A, Peotone is No. 3 at Manteno, where Rich South is the top seed; and Lemont is 3 at Hillcrest, where Hillcrest is the top seed. Streator hosts the other regional and is the other No.1 seed.

PREP WRESTLING STATE FINALS: DAY 1

Thirty area wrestlers advance to quarterfinals STAFF REPORTS CHAMPAIGN – A total of 30 wrestlers from the area captured victories in first-round matches during Thursday’s opening day of the IHSA finals at State Farm Center.

Half of those advanced in Class 3A, while 10 made it through to Friday’s quarterfinals in Class 1A and five more advance in Class 2A. Local teams qualified 59 individuals from various sectionals, but two alternates joined them in the initial day of the three-day competition.

Two of those squads that were participating failed to advance a wrestler to the quarterfinals.

Leading the way in Class 3A was Lockport, which moved along four of its five competitors. Tyler Johnson (195 pounds) recorded a fall; Shayne Oster (138) and Trevell Timmons (152) both won decisions; and Abdullah Assaf (113) advanced with a bye.

Plainfield East had two winners among its three qualifiers. Michael McGee (106) won by technical fall, and Zach Krause (132) captured a major decision.

Plainfield North also advanced two of its three individuals. Marcus Povlick (106) recorded a fall, while Nick Wolf

(285) won a decision.

Lincoln-Way Central moved along half of its fourman contingent. Vinnie Piunti (120) and Bryan Ditchman (285) won decisions, while Jake Dudeck (182) suffered a one-point defeat.

Joliet West, Minooka, Plainfield Central and Plainfield South each had one first-round winner, while Lincoln-Way East was shut out.

Joliet West’s lone representative, Darvell Flagg (106), won a decision. And Minooka advanced Carson Oughton (170), who recorded a fall.

Plainfield Central’s Clayton Ledbetter (138) won a decision, and Plainfield South’s Eric Johnson (220) recorded a fall.

The other local athlete in the Class 3A field, St. Rita’s Austin O’Connor (132) – a

Lockport resident and returning state champion – won a decision.

In Class 2A, Lemont advanced half of its six-man contingent. Egan Berta (138) got a pin, while Jim Brennan (145) and John Polk (170) both won decisions.

Lincoln-Way West drew some tough first-day matchups and only moved along two of its six qualifiers. Tom Buell

(113) won by decision, and Noah Keefe (132) prevailed on an ultimate tiebreaker; Kyle Ruettiger (138), a placewinner the last two years, dropped a one-point decision, and Trevor Schmidt (182) fell in overtime.

In Class 1A, Coal City produced five winners among its seven competitors. Corey Jurzak (132) and Jake Frost (220) recorded falls, Joey Rivera (106) and Cody Minnick (120) both won by technical fall, and Riley Kauzlaric (182) won a major decision.

Wilmington advanced four of its nine qualifiers. Nick Hawkins (160) won a major decision, while Austin Headrick (138), Joe Mann (170) and Kyal Davis (220) all captured decisions. Ryan Berman (195) lost a one-point decision.

All eyes were on the Class 4A Bolingbrook Regional.

When the votes were counted and the IHSA announced the Class 4A and 3A boys basketball seeds Thursday afternoon, however, there were no huge surprises.

Despite last week’s 64-27 loss to West Aurora, Neuqua Valley (21-4) held on to the No. 1 seed many assumed it would get. The rest of the top four in the 21-team field also went

as anticipated, with Bolingbrook (17-5) – which has won 11 straight – claiming the No. 2 position, followed by No. 3 Plainfield North (19-4) and No. 4 Providence (18-9).

Providence, which is rolling now that Miles Boykin is back and in basketball form, has beaten St. Rita and Hales Franciscan – two of the top teams in the Chicago area – in the Catholic League playoffs and will face another of the best, St. Joseph, in the championship game at 2 p.m. Saturday at DePaul University.

BOLINGBROOK CLASS 4A GIRLS BASKETBALL REGIONAL: BOLINGBROOK 66, PLAINFIELD N. 48

Plainfield N. run ends vs. Bolingbrook

By JEFF DE GRAW Shaw Media Correspondent BOLINGBROOK – Plainfield North, the 19th seed in the sectional, came into Thursday night’s Class 4A regional title game having already beaten No. 4 seed Oswego and No. 13 Lockport.

However, this game was against Bolingbrook, the No. 5 seed, and it was on the Raiders’ home floor.

After trailing, 10-8, with 4:52 remaining in the first quarter, Bolingbrook put together a 13-0 run and cruised to a 66-48 victory.

Bolingbrook’s press and aggressive rebounding were major factors during the run and the remainder of the game. The Raiders held North without a field goal for eight minutes.

“That was exactly what we needed tonight,” Raiders

coach Chris Smith said. “We played to our strengths, controlled the tempo and were aggressive on the boards.

“We are peaking at the right time. We have always wanted to play our best basketball in late February, early March. None of these girls came into this season with good quality minutes. We have had to use the season to get those minutes. It has been a learning curve, and that curve is right where we want it.”

The Raiders, who were led by junior point guard Brittney Patrick with 17 points, controlled the offensive with some spectacular passes and drives.

“We are coming together as a team,” Patrick said. “I have been waiting for this since my freshman year. We have that drive to win as a team, and you could really

see that tonight. That was fun out there.”

Bennita Drain scored 14 points and Karli Seay added 13 for the Raiders.

Although the Raiders led, 43-24, at halftime, North never quit. The Tigers outscored Bolingbrook, 14-9, in the third quarter and got within 52-38 as the quarter ended. Junior Jordan Heberg (21 points) scored eight in the quarter.

“This run we had in the playoffs was fun,” Heberg said. “We never won two games in a row all season.

We are all back next year, except for Kelsey (Paetschow). I’m already excited about next season; we are going to win it all.”

The Tigers start two freshmen, two sophomores and a junior and never had won two games during a playoff run in school histo-

ry. That also excites coach Reggie Lemon.

“To come into the regional with only seven wins all season and do what we did shows a lot on how these girls have matured and come together this season,” Lemon said. “I’m so proud of them.

“This is so motivational for next season. This shows that we can play with anyone. These girls never gave up all season, always fought, practiced hard. They now have that belief. Early in the year, we were so young and inexperienced. Now look at what we have accomplished.”

Bolingbrook will move on to the sectional semifinal game Monday night at Oswego East, where perennial power Benet – champion of the Joliet West Regional – will be the opponent.

AREA ROUNDUP

Jack Krieger named NAIA Player of Week SUBMITTED REPORTS KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Saint Xavier senior guard Jack Krieger (Plainfield North) was the NAIA National Division II Men’s Basketball Player of the Week for games Feb. 9-15.

Krieger had a pair of 35plus scoring efforts in two victories last week – a 118117 triple-overtime win over Robert Morris on Feb. 11 and a 90-80 triumph over Trinity International on Feb. 14.

For the week, he averaged 39 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.5 steals. He shot 66.7 percent (24 of 36), including 5 of 11 (.455) from 3-point range. Against Robert Morris, he notched a game-high 35 points and split a pair of free throws with 7 seconds left in the third overtime to help secure the one-point win.

He scored 43 against Trinity International, which was the most points ever scored by a Cougar at the Shannon Center and the most in a

game for a Saint Xavier player since Hall of Famer Mike Walaszek scored 46 points on Feb. 8, 1978.

Krieger is ranked eighth in NAIA Division II with a 22.1 average. He has been in double figures in all 27 games and in 15 of those games, he has scored more than 20.

Mariota facing a big learning curve

By PATRICK FINLEY pfinley@suntimes.com INDIANAPOLIS – The Heisman Trophy winner has spent part of the past six weeks learning how to call plays.

Marcus Mariota, you see, hasn’t huddled since high school.

He’ll have to do so in the NFL for all but one team – the Eagles, coached by his former Oregon boss, Chip Kelly.

Preparing for the inevitable this past month, Mariota’s personal passing coach, Kevin O’Connell, printed out sheets with plays on them. He asked Mariota to read them out load, with authority.

“That’s something little,” the former Oregon quarterback said Thursday at the NFL Scouting Combine. “But as this process goes, it’s going to help me with whatever team I get to in terms of just speaking in the huddle and articulating the plays.”

Mariota is easy for NFL teams – perhaps even the Bears – to dream on, particularly at the NFL’s annual Underwear Olympics. At 6-foot-4, 222 pounds, Mariota hopes to run an under 4.5-second 40yard dash.

But Mariota, who went 36-5 in college, is still a projection pick. He wasn’t asked to read defenses at Oregon the way he would in a more transitional

pro-style offense. Transitioning from a hair-on-fire no-huddle to the NFL requires changes big and small, starting with the huddle itself.

“It seems like a little detail, but that is kind of a big thing,” he said. “There’s other things as well. Three-, five-, seven-step drops under center.

That’s all stuff I’ve been able to work on the last month.”

O’Connell coached Mariota before being named the Browns’ quarterbacks coach this week. He brought Philip Rivers to Mariota’s San Diego-area workout hub; the Chargers quarterback told him to be himself.

“There’s a lot of different things you have to go through as a rookie quarterback,” Mariota said. “For me that’s one thing, amongst a lot. I’m going to have to do my best to be able to handle all of it.”

That pushes Mariota, who has been ranked everywhere from the No. 1 pick in the draft – ahead of Florida State’s Jameis Winston – to being available when the Bears pick at No. 7.

“Any motivation starts with some type of doubt,” he said. “As an athlete I’ve built my motivation over the years as well. But that is stuff you have to kind of put in the past and not worry about it move forward. I would say it’s a mixture of both.”

Van Gogh featured in Art Volunteers program

MOKENA – Second-graders at Arbury Hills School in Mokena learned about artist Vincent Van Gogh at their regularly scheduled Art Volunteers in the Classroom session, also known as AVIC. In October, the second-graders learned about Van Gogh and made their own version of Van Gogh’s “Starry Night.”

Parent volunteers Stefanie Flairs and Lena Halawa coordinate lessons for first- through fourth-graders throughout the school year. Each grade level learns about a different artist and models a famous piece using multiple media.

By the time a fourth-grader graduates from Arbury Hills, he/ she will have learned about and replicated at least 16 artists.

Other parent volunteers help out during the AVIC sessions to lend helping hands where needed.

PUZZLES SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Rules are not without exception

CELEBRITY CIPHER

A.C. Benson, an English author who was the 28th Master of Magdalene College, Cambridge, and whose father was the Archbishop of Canterbury from 1882 to 1896, said, “Very often a change of self is needed more than a change of scene.”

In yesterday’s deal, declarer needed to finesse in clubs three times through his right-hand opponent. But since he had no other dummy entry left, that required, on the first round, leading the lowest club in the dummy that could win the trick.

That is a reliable rule, but when a double finesse (two finesses in the same suit) is involved, a different approach might be needed. In this deal, West starts the defense against four spades with the club king and another club. After South ruffs at trick two, how should he continue?

South’s jump to game is reasonable, given the big trump fit.

Declarer has five potential losers: two hearts, two diamonds and one club. He has only eight top tricks: seven spades and one heart. So, to make his contract, South needs to find East with at least one heart honor and the diamond ace. But that might require leading three times from the dummy: to take two heart finesses and to lead toward the diamond king. With only two trump entries, care is required.

Declarer should cash his spade king, lead a spade to dummy’s queen and play a low heart to his jack, not run the 10 or nine.

West wins and leads the club queen. South ruffs, crosses to dummy’s spade ace, and runs the heart 10.

When that wins, declarer can play a diamond toward his king to get home. **

mation of the airways.

In rare cases, you might need to take an oral corticosteroid, such as prednisone, for several days.

Another cause of a persistent cough after bronchitis is sinus inflammation, leading to post-nasal drip. Junk from inflamed sinuses drops down into the back of the throat. The throat has sensitive areas that when stimulated cause a person to cough.

Post-nasal drip can stimulate them. An overthe-counter saline spray can help to remove mucus and irritants from your nose. It will also help to moisturize your nasal passages.

A persistent cough also can be caused by thick mucus in the bronchial tubes. Try drinking plenty of fluids to make the mucus thin, watery and easy to cough up.

Warm, moist air also can loosen mucus. Try using a vaporizer or humidifier; standing in or near a hot shower; or drinking hot tea or soup.

In some cases, a person continues to cough for weeks after bronchitis because of a stubborn infection. Most cases of bronchitis are caused by viruses. But bronchitis can also be caused by bacteria, which might not yet be eliminated by your immune system. If your doctor suspects a bacterial infection, he or she may prescribe an antibiotic.

There’s usually a fixable reason for a persistent cough after bronchitis. If the home remedies I’ve recommended don’t work, talk to your doctor.

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff

W I N E C O O L E R

Dear Doctor K: I had a chest cold. I feel better, but I’m still coughing a lot. This has been going on for more than three weeks. Why am I still coughing?

Dear Reader: Most likely, you had bronchitis, an inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes.

Bronchitis is usually caused by an infection – viral or bacterial. The bronchial tubes are air passages connecting the lungs to the windpipe.

Bronchitis usually starts with an upper respiratory illness that spreads from the nose and throat down into the airways. (I’ve put an illustration showing how bronchitis affects the airways on my website, AskDoctorK.com.)

Your immune system often is able to wipe out the infection in about five to 10 days. However, for several different reasons, symptoms may persist – as they have with you.

Though your body usually fights off the initial respiratory infection promptly, your bronchial tubes can remain inflamed and sensitive for several weeks, causing you to continue coughing.

The inflammation also can create spasm or irritability of the bronchial tubes: They intermittently tighten up suddenly, causing coughing. This can produce other symptoms as well: • a tight feeling in your chest • wheezing • shortness of breath when you exert yourself • mild fatigue To treat your irritable bronchial tubes, your doctor may prescribe an inhaler of what is called a bronchodilator medicine. Albuterol is one commonly prescribed.

Bronchodilators are used by people with asthma to ease breathing during an asthma attack.

If this does not control the cough, you may also need a corticosteroid inhaler. Corticosteroids can help to reduce inflam-

Dear Abby: I recently started working at the hospital where my husband receives his primary care. One afternoon, out of curiosity, I accessed his medical records. In his file it was noted that he is high risk for STDs. In fact, he was treated for two different ones some years back.

I have been tested for STDs during all my annual physicals, and the results were always negative. I think it’s because we often go for weeks without any sexual contact.

What should I do with this information? How do I talk to him about it without letting him know that I’m aware of his medical history? – Concerned in

Blondie

Real Life Adventures

Dear Concerned: Unless you claim to be clairvoyant, I don’t see how you can discuss this without admitting you accessed his medical records, which is against the law. Be prepared for him to be irate, because the best defense is a strong offense. You are lucky your husband hasn’t given you an STD. By all means talk with him about this, if only to find out whether you have sex so infrequently because he’s having relations with other people. Now that you know what has been going on, you have some serious thinking to do about staying in this marriage.

Dear Abby: I had an abusive boyfriend who, I realized later, had abused his wife and children. After we broke up, my close friend and neighbor asked me if I’d mind if she went out with him. I initially said no, but after thinking about it, I thought how could she? She knew how he had treated me, pushing, shoving and isolating me from my friends.

I had words with her about it, and she said she wasn’t there, so she didn’t know if it really happened.

What kind of a woman wouldn’t support me?

He is over there often, and I live right next door. I

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips am furious with her. Do I have a right to be? – Alice

in New Mexico

Dear Alice: Your friend must be desperate for male companionship, or incredibly naive in failing to recognize that what happened to you (and the man’s former wife) won’t also happen to her. Please don’t waste your time being angry. You are lucky to be rid of your abuser and should be grateful you realized he was one before he caused you physical harm.

Dear Abby: A woman I know has a husband who is deployed. I would like to send her a card offering support and love, to tell her how thankful I am for both of their sacrifices in the service of our country.

Can you assist with wording and other ideas on how I can be supportive? She lives far away, so this will all be long distance. I don’t want to come across wrong or say something that could offend.

I ran across an article the other day on what NOT to say to military wives, and I’m afraid I may have committed a faux pas and don’t want to do it again. –

Civilian in Iowa

Dear Civilian: If you think you “may” have committed a breach of etiquette, pick up the phone, call the woman and offer an apology. Explain that you read an article about what not to say to military wives, and hope you didn’t offend her. Offer to stay in touch – if that’s what she would like – so you can let her know she and her husband are in your thoughts, and let her suggest other ways you might be helpful even though you are geographically distant.

FRIDAY HOROSCOPE TODAY – Networking and promotion will bring you rewards this year. The time and effort you put into increasing your stature in the workplace and community will ensure that you keep the momentum going. Love will play a role in the success you achieve.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Your warmth and compassion will be an asset to a benevolent or charitable cause. Assisting elderly people or ailing family members will intensify your sympathetic nature and understanding.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – An opportunity to make money or raise your earning potential is within reach. Keep track of your expenditures and leave enough leeway in your budget for an unexpected home repair or medical bill.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Be a participant. Once you get involved in community affairs, you will be surprised at the number of interesting people you meet and how full your social calendar will become.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – If you have been exaggerating or spreading rumors, you will be accused of meddling. Keep busy doing something that is beneficial to you and those around you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Get involved in things that you enjoy doing. You will meet someone who will prompt you to think differently or will spark your imagination. A chance to travel will lead to a rewarding experience.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Mixing financial and emotional issues can be costly. If your generosity

is eating into your savings account, curb your spending. It makes more sense to offer suggestions or hands-on help.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – A partnership will be on shaky ground if you don’t make an effort to share your thoughts. Schedule time to discuss your plans for the future or to re-establish responsibilities.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Impress your superiors by putting in more effort at work. Prove how seriously you take your position by presenting your ideas for a more efficient workplace. Success will follow assertiveness.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Cultural differences and philosophies will intrigue you. There is plenty of knowledge available on the Internet. Don’t limit yourself to the same old routines and ideas;

broaden your horizons.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Don’t get upset about things you cannot change. Traffic woes or unanticipated weather changes are unpleasant, but emotional outbursts will not help you get along with others or mend a negative situation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Someone you consider a casual acquaintance may have a more romantic motive in mind. Be honest about your feelings. If handled properly, you will end up with a lifelong friendship.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Financial gains lie ahead. An opportunity to change your profession should be considered. A minor health ailment should be checked out before it escalates into something serious.
