Councilman wants report on transportation center costs

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com

JOLIET – A Joliet city councilman, calling the project “a boondoggle,” wants to know how much the downtown transportation center is costing.

“I call the project a boondoggle because nobody seems to know what’s going on,” Councilman Jim McFarland said Thursday, adding that he wants to know what finishing the center will cost.

“I want to make sure that the project is on budget, that we’re current on any bills, and that when it’s completed we can pay for it,” McFarland said.

The project, called the Joliet Gateway Center, has been estimated to cost between $41 million and $44 million, with the city putting up $7.5 million. Railroads also are contributing to the project.

The bulk of the cost is

being carried by the state through a $32 million grant to the city. However, the city is negotiating with the Illinois Department of Transportation about the project.

City Manager Jim Hock alluded to the negotiations at the City Council’s meeting Tuesday when McFarland asked for a status report on the transportation center.

“We’re in negotiations with IDOT right now, and I don’t think it’s appropriate to disclose to the public what we are negotiating at this point,” Hock said.

Hock said he planned to give a status report to the council after reaching a memorandum of understanding with IDOT. When McFarland insisted on some kind of report on project costs, Hock said he could provide that.

“I can give you year-todate expenditures and projected expenditures,” Hock

said.

Hock said he would prepare such a list, but he did not give an overall cost estimate at Tuesday’s meeting.

He could not immediately be reached for comment Thursday.

Lisa Dorothy, the city’s project manager for the transportation center, on Thursday said she would not discuss the project’s finances until first meeting with Hock and the city’s finance director.

McFarland said he wants a status report because he hears from citizens questioning how much the city has paid to acquire land for the project and whether contract change orders are pushing costs beyond initial estimates.

“Even though it’s a good project for the city, we still need to know if we’re within budget and what it’s going to take to get to completion,” he said.

ICC, Elwood attorneys urge the denial of requests to rehear railway closure decision

By LAUREN LEONE-CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com CHICAGO – Attorneys from the Illinois Commerce Commission and the village of Elwood are urging the full ICC board to deny separate requests from the Illinois Department of Transportation and CenterPoint Properties for rehearings to consider reopening a controversial railroad crossing in Elwood.

The responses were filed Feb. 27 on the grounds both IDOT and CenterPoint’s attorneys had essentially waived opportunities to challenge the ICC’s Jan. 28 crossing closure order and failed to object to the Walter Strawn Drive closure within the proper deadline, according to case documents.

ICC staff member Jennifer Anderson also noted IDOT’s

recent request for the ICC administrative law judge to take into consideration a rogue letter sent outside proper procedures by an IDOT employee seeking the closure’s reopening.

“This is simply unjustified,” the document states.

“There is no excuse for IDOT to be given a ‘second bite of the apple’ when, having the same deadline and having been afforded the same opportunities” as other parties in the case to object to the closure during and after the hearing process.

The filing also states IDOT failed to present “new information” that warrants rehearing.

Michael Scotti, attorney for CenterPoint, said Thursday IDOT’s reversal in opinion is strong enough evidence to warrant a rehearing on the

closure.

Scotti said he plans to file a response in the case stating CenterPoint did not waive its right to object at a later date when it concurred with the ICC order to shutdown the crossing.

IDOT also filed a request for additional hearings. Scotti said the full ICC board has a March 9 deadline to respond to that request. It’s unclear whether the issue will be taken up at a special meeting scheduled for March 9.

• An earlier Herald-News article incorrectly stated the Illinois Commerce Commission board denied the Illinois Department of Transportation and CenterPoint’s request for a rehearing. ICC staff urged the full ICC board to deny the two parties’ request. The Herald-News regrets the error.

Seventh-grader wins bee after three championship misses

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com

LOCKPORT – Troy Middle School seventh-grader Summit Kumar won the 2015 Will County Spelling Bee on Thursday at Lockport East High School after a seesaw 10-round battle with the runner-up.

Kumar won on the word “inexplicable” in the 33rd round.

It was an inexplicable victory after three championship chances were missed between the remaining two spellers.

“I just prayed to God that I knew the word,” said Kumar, who overcame two missed words, “evangelist” and “raucously,” in rounds 27 and 31 that would have each led to a victory.

Cathedral of St. Raymond eighth-grader Sam Munson placed second, and went round-for-round with Kumar until he missed on the word “chalice.” Kumar then spelled “reluctant” correctly setting him up for the championship question.

“The biggest difference in this spelling bee was that both spellers had chances to win,” said Will County Regional Superintendent Shawn Walsh.

TOP FOUR

With 46 students participating this year after winning their school competitions, the field was set for several good rounds.

But it only took 10 rounds before only four students were left.

Twenty-three rounds later, Kumar jumped back for joy after he heard the judge’s approval.

“All of these spellers had to win competitions to get here, so they are all winners,” Walsh said.

Kumar’s mother, Sunita Kumar, said she and her daughter were getting very nervous the last couple of rounds.

“The heart was pounding with nerves,” she said.

PREPARATION

Spellers and their parents had a lot of preparation before competing Thursday.

St. Rose seventh-grader Jonathan Urban, who went out on the word “gardenia,” said he prepared by studying last year’s list and other

spelling lists.

“I was very nervous,” Urban said.

“But it felt great to be on stage.”

His mother, Jennifer Urban, said

she was extremely nervous, but it was a good learning experience for Jonathan.

“I hope he learned about competi-

tion and not to be scared on stage,” Urban said. “I’m very proud of him.”

Last year, champion Meghana Kamineni went 43 rounds, about half of them against the runner-up in what Walsh called the longest county spelling bee he has ever seen.

This year, the spelling bee started 30 minutes earlier to give more time in case of another marathon competition, and because several students were taking state assessments this week, Walsh said.

Kumar advances to the Scripps National Spelling Bee in Washington, D.C., later this year.

Community pays respect to sports legend Gordie Gillespie

By LAUREN LEONE-CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com

JOLIET – It seemed everyone related to Joliet athletics – past and present – streamed Thursday into the New Covenant Community Church on Thursday to honor Gordie Gillespie.

The 88-year-old Joliet sports legend died Saturday after a long illness. Barely an hour into the start of the late coach’s wake, which lasted from 2 to 9 p.m. Thursday, a long line had formed within the church lobby to offer condolences to the Gillespie family.

Among those waiting was Les Norman, a Braidwood native who first met Gillespie in the late 1980s upon receiving a scholarship to play football and baseball at the University of St. Francis.

Norman said he arrived at USF as an “angry teen” with a troubled childhood, but emerged after three seasons a different person, because of Gillespie’s coaching and guidance.

“Gordie lassoed me in pretty quick,” Norman said. “He was everything you ever wanted or needed in a friend. He encompassed it all: He was a father-figure. A disciplinarian.

A coach.

“Everything he did, he did out of love,” Norman added.

“He would be the first person to tell you we all make mistakes. He was a good person and he taught by example.”

A Chicago native who starred in DePaul University basketball, Gillespie arrived in Joliet in 1950.

In the 65 years since, he brought community sports to heights never imagined, whether coaching Joliet Catholic football, Lewis basketball or baseball, or St. Francis baseball, football or women’s basketball.

Gillespie retired from coaching in 2010 with a combined record of 2,402 victories against 1,170 losses and eight

Mourners gather Thursday for a wake in memorial of Gordie Gillespie at New Covenant Community Church in Joliet.

Arrangements Celebration of Gillespie’s Life: Noon, Saturday, March 21, in Sullivan Center on University of St. Francis campus. Mass at 9:30 a.m. at Cathedral of St. Raymond.

Pete Coorlas, a longtime friend, sat in the middle rows of family and friends, reminiscing about the nearly 80-

year friendship he shared with Gillespie. Coorlas, Gillespie and George Leddy, also deceased, were known as “The Big Three,” he said. The trio

played basketball together at DePaul University.

“We always stuck together.

You’d always see the three of us next to each other,” said Coorlas, who first met Gillespie on the grade school basketball court.

“He wanted to play with us.

We said, ‘Oh, look at that little, skinny guy.’ We felt sorry for him,” Coorlas joked.

One of Gillespie’s seven children, Margaret Mary, said she and her family were over-

whelmed, but not surprised, by the droves of people who came to the wake. “Sharing her father” was never a problem, she said.

“It’s amazing to be able to experience the stories and love from everyone,” she said.

“Everyone’s thanking us, and apologizing to us, for taking our dad away from us. But I tell them, ‘You don’t understand.

We gained more brothers. We gained more sisters.’ Each one of them became family.”

Two years ago, the family started a “Letters to Gordie Gillespie” Facebook page so people could offer the coach birthday wishes, she said.

Since news broke of his death Saturday, the page has tallied nearly 15,000 posts from former players, coaches, family and friends, she said.

Defense attorney Jeff Tomczak told Judge Daniel Rozak that Hall has a burgeoning career in rap music under the stage name “Star Money” and made that his life’s focus.

After being released from prison on drug charges in January 2014, Hall performed several concerts in the area and made four music videos during the next five months.

Hall “cleaned up” his lyrics during performances for young audiences, Tomczak said. Some of those videos were played during earlier court proceedings.

On May 22, 2014, Hall was a passenger in a car stopped by Joliet officers after a handgun was tossed from the passenger window, according to police

Preparing a resume for the cosmetology field SPONSORED BY

By Denise Freese Chris LaFortune – clafortune@shawmedia.com

Housing Authority of Joliet Family Self-Sufficiency Program Coordinator R. Dale Evans (from left), Joliet Junior College Project Achieve Director DeAndre Butler and Harvey Brooks Foundation Executive Director Tempie Bates answer questions during a presentation of the “Illinois Kids Count 2015” report Thursday at Joliet Junior College in Joliet.

Those include enhancing tax credits for low-income working families, strengthening food assistance, promoting healthy families and renewing early childhood education investments.

“It’s a domino effect,” Evans said. “The families we work with depend on child care. If they lose their child care, they can’t work. ... If they can’t work, then child care closes. We’re talking about a number of people who stand to lose their jobs, and kids stand to lose that foundation, that basic education to make them prepared to go to school.”

Statistics show poverty has profound affects on children that can result in physical, emotional and cognitive impairment, as well as behavioral problems, said Tempie Bates, the executive director of the Joliet-based Harvey Brooks Foundation.

“Knowing that the child poverty rates in Illinois remain high, it is even more important to work together to ensure our children are prepared and equipped with the speech, language and cognitive skills necessary to succeed in school,” Bates said.

Instead, the state is looking

at cutting its early childhood education budget, said Chris Bzdon, the executive director of Joliet’s Child Care Resources & Referral.

“We need to decide where those priorities lie,” Bzdon said. “If you’re going to cut in the early years, you are not going to have children ready as adults and in life.”

There are some good signs.

Will County saw an increase of 25,000 jobs in the past four years, said Pat Fera, director of the Workforce Investment Board of Will County. With that growth came an increase in wages.

“Last year alone, almost every occupational sector saw an increase in wages of at least 4 percent, and some saw double digit wage increases,” Fera said.

People must have the skill levels necessary to get these jobs, Fera said. Young people need to have not just a high school diploma or GED, but a post-secondary education to prepare themselves.

“We need to not only address the adult skill level here,” Fera said. “We need to start looking at what do young people have as they move into the workforce.”

A professional resume should accomplish three things: it should give potential employers an idea of the type of position you are seeking; it should list your relevant education, experience, training, and abilities; and it should help you stand out in a large group, ensuring a spot on an interview list.

A resume offers the first impression your potential employers will have of you, so it’s important to put a lot of effort and concentration into creating it. Showcasing yourself in a professional manner will increase your chances of obtaining a face-to-face interview.

The field of cosmetology is competitive; you want to make sure your resume doesn’t end up in the circular file. Begin by stating a clear, descriptive objective that will help potential employers know what type of position you’re looking for.

Starting with the most recent information, list your relevant work experience, including internships (paid

or unpaid), and volunteer positions. Then list all relevant education, including beauty school, special training and skills, licenses and certifications, and even one-time courses. Use words that capture the reader’s attention, such as “customer service”, “sales”, “communication”, and “client retention”, if applicable.

It’s also advisable to include a section that lists your accomplishments, including any awards, honors, or other recognition you have received during your education and work experience. If you are multi-lingual, be sure to include it; this can help set you apart from other applicants.

When you’ve finished your resume, have it proofread to make sure there aren’t any errors. Don’t rely solely on spellcheck; it won’t catch a typo that is an actual word used incorrectly.

Include “references upon request” at the bottom of the resume, and be prepared to provide full information from at least three sources; these could include instructors, mentors, and former bosses who know you well.

JOLIET – Poverty and early childhood education advocates warned of an increasing need for services amid a push

by Gov. Bruce Rauner to cut social services in his proposed budget.

Representatives from Voices for Illinois Children presented Thursday the organization’s “Illinois Kids Count 2015” report at Joliet Junior College.

The presentation was one of several statewide to announce the report’s findings, said R. Dale Evans, family self-sufficiency program coordinator for the Housing Authority of Joliet.

About one in five children statewide, more than 600,000 children, live in poverty, Evans said. In Will County, the number of children living in poverty has grown, from 8,770 children in 1999 to 21,253 children in 2012, according to the organization’s report.

During that period, the child poverty rate in Will County grew from 6 percent to 11 percent, according to Voices for Illinois Children. The statewide child poverty rate grew from 14 percent to 21 percent.

Some of the largest increases in poverty have occurred in areas outside of the Chicago metropolitan area, Evans said.

In 1999, the city of Chicago accounted for about half of Illinois children living in poverty. By 2013, it accounted for one-third.

As part of its mission, Voices for Illinois Children advocates for policies at the state and federal level to elevate children out of poverty, Evans said.

“Unfortunately, existing efforts at the state level will be ... weakened by the governor’s proposed 2015-2016 budget,” he said.

While the state faces budget woes, Voices for Illinois Children remains optimistic its suggested strategies will be heard, Evans said.

THE HERALD-NEWS JOLIET – A nearly 10-yearold rent dispute between the Rialto Square Theatre and attorney Dave Neal will go on at least two weeks longer.

The case, scheduled for a hearing Thursday, was continued to March 19.

Neal, a special prosecutor for the Illinois State’s Attorney’s Appellate Prosecutor office, was a private attorney in 2005 when he rented office

space that is part of the Rialto building.

The Will County Metropolitan Exposition and Auditorium Authority, which oversees the Rialto, has claimed Neal owes rent money. Neal claims the landlord did not comply with its obligations to provide suitable office space.

The authority board voted Feb. 26 to settle the case for $2,400.

The board rejected a settlement offer from Neal to pay

$2,400 to the Rialto Square Theatre Foundation, the Rialto’s fundraising arm. The board wants the $2,400 paid to WCMEAA. Neal has said he wanted his payment to go to the Rialto foundation because he did not want the money to be under the control of General Manager Randy Green.

Neither Neal nor the attorney for the Rialto immediately returned phone calls Thursday seeking comment.

USF honors woman for community activism after her daughter’s death

By CHRIS LaFORTUNE clafortune@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Fighting back tears, Cleopatra Cowley-Pendleton remembered her daughter, Hadiya.

“Hadiya was regular,” Cowley-Pendleton told an audience of about 50 Thursday at the University of St. Francis. “She was a regular kid. When her school finals were over, she made a decision.”

What the 15-year-old decided, her mother said, was to go to a park and spend some time with some friends.

Harmless.

But not for her daughter.

On Jan. 29, 2013, Hadiya Pendleton was killed, shot while spending time in a Chicago park with her friends.

Since then, Cowley-Pendleton and her husband Nathaniel have started the organization “Hadiya’s Promise” to fight gun violence and support atrisk youth.

For her work, the University of St. Francis awarded Cowley-Pendleton with the third annual Sister Clare Award.

The award is presented as a part of the university’s celebration of Women’s History

Month.

The award began as a way to honor women of vision, women who were transforming the world in their time, said Debra Workman, associate professor of history and a member of the university’s Women’s History Month committee.

“It’s those who are transformative, who are in the process of making change,” Workman said.

Hadiya Pendleton’s death touched many, Workman said.

“Her mother’s wanting to have hope and change, and to create a foundation in memory of her daughter, we thought that was worthy of continuing the conversation on these issues,” she added.

As a part of the recognition for Cowley-Pendleton’s work, Workman presented a donation to Hadiya’s Promise: $1,000 from the university’s Criminal and Social Justice Department, $100 from the Women’s History Month Committee.

Before Thursday’s ceremony, Cowley-Pendleton said she was honored the university selected her for the award.

Having an opportunity

to talk about her daughter, about the work she’s done since her death, has helped her cope with the tragedy, she said.

“It’s also putting a face to the crime,” Cowley-Pendleton said. “For so many, it’s a story.

You watch the news and it’s a story.”

For Cowley-Pendleton, the story is very real. On Thursday, she suggested to the audience they keep loving one another and the people important to them.

You never know how happy you are, she said, until suddenly, you are not.

“Those of you who would say, ‘I can’t imagine what Nathaniel and I are going through,’ I would say, don’t say that. Don’t think that,” Cowley-Pendleton said, noting she herself had once thought that way.

“I don’t want you to imagine it, because it is that horrible,” she said.

Cowley-Pendleton closed her award acceptance with a word of thanks, and at that, those gathered in the University of St. Francis Sexton Auditorium rose as one and gave her a round of applause.

LOCKPORT

Police offer real-time public safety notices

By SARWAT S. AHMAD Shaw Media Correspondent LOCKPORT – Lockport residents can sign up to get real-time alerts for public safety notices or events in their area.

The Lockport Police Department has upgraded its account with communications service company Nixle to provide free public safety and community event notifications to its residents almost as soon as they happen, Police Chief Terry Lemming told the City Council Wednesday night.

The department has used the service in the past, but it

was less efficient and few residents signed up for it, Lemming said later.

With its upgraded service, all of the department’s members can put out messages as needed. Previously, only crime prevention officers had access, he said.

“We will put out alerts in a timely fashion, as close to real-time as we can,” Lemming said.

Lemming said he hopes to have more residents enroll for the service.

Residents can sign up for free text, email or web notifications at www.nixle.com.

Once enrolled, residents will

get alerts about weather advisories, major police activity, missing persons, street closures and any other relevant safety or community information.

New haunted house

Separately, a haunted house attraction may be coming to Lockport.

City Administrator Ben Benson said a concept plan to build a haunted house next to Legacy Paintball and Airsoft Park in Dellwood Park West is scheduled for discussion at the Tuesday Plan and Zoning Commission meeting.

County officials mull changes to video gaming, liquor license rules

By LAUREN LEONE-CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – County officials are considering limiting the number of liquor licenses issued in unincorporated areas as way to stave off “a proliferation” of video gaming cafés and boutique establishments.

The Will County Board’s Executive Committee held a public hearing Thursday on whether the county should opt out of video gaming entirely – a choice several Illinois municipalities made in 2012 when video gaming went live.

County Board Speaker Jim Moustis brought forth the idea last month. At the time, he suggested banning video gaming outright and limiting the number of liquor licenses – a requirement for establishments seeking gaming terminals.

But Thursday, Moustis and other committee members said the county should instead require special approval for liquor licenses. That would give the County Board the ability to deny liquor licenses to “gaming boutiques” – businesses that have popped up in the last couple of years with the primary purpose of acting as a gaming facility, Moustis said.

Moustis said he is not against the gaming industry, but he is

against such establishments.

He cited Dotty’s and Betty’s Boutique in Joliet as examples.

Some video gaming proponents spoke Thursday of the benefits additional revenue has had on bars and restaurants that include video gaming as a secondary component. But no one spoke directly in favor of such boutiques.

Among those who spoke were Tom Swoik, executive director of the Illinois Casino Gaming Association; Mike Gelatka, president of the Illinois Gaming Machine Operators Association; and Sandra Wortham, chairwoman for the grassroots coalition No Casino Cafes. Swoik and Wortham spoke against video gaming, while Gelatka touted the benefits.

When Illinois passed the Video Gaming Act, it was meant to help local businesses, Wortham said.

But a loophole has allowed casino cafe operators to flourish.

“These unintended beneficiaries are … getting liquor licenses in these municipalities and thus plopping down gaming machines in pop-up locations that didn’t exist before and aren’t really offering real dining or beverage entertainment,” Wortham said. “It’s at the ex-

pense of community businesses that already exist.”

James Harvey, attorney for the county liquor commissioner, said Thursday he’s not aware of any such boutiques in unincorporated Will County.

But he said applicants are not required to define themselves as such when applying for a liquor license.

Among the changes committee members mulled over Thursday was requiring a certain percentage of a liquor license applicants’ revenues to come from food and beverages.

Mary Tatroe, with the Will County State’s Attorney’s Office, said state law leaves few options to regulate these establishments outside of limiting the number of liquor licenses.

There are 57 liquor licenses in unincorporated Will County, compared to more than 80 that existed 10 years ago. The decrease is due to more unincorporated land getting absorbed into municipalities.

Moustis and other committee members considered limiting the number of licenses to 60.

The limit now is 150. Licenses already issued can’t be taken away, but the board could prohibit new ones.

Moustis wants proposed changes on the County Board’s April agenda.

pected to partner with Zombie Army Productions – which brought the Fear Haunted House to Navy Pier – to build a 20,000-square-foot building on about 20 acres with an investment of about $2 million, Benson said.

High school teams praised

Also, the City Council recognized and praised the achievement of two Lockport High School teams. The school’s girls bowling team won its fourth state championship last month, with freshman Bailey Delrose bowling a perfect game.

The wrestling team last

month received its first trophy at the state championships with a fourth-place win.

“I’ve always felt that our high school [students] are an undiscovered gem,” Mayor Steven Streit said.

Other action taken by the City Council Wednesday night included: • Approved a resolution for Benson to sign a contract with Strand Associates for 2015 water/sewer construction engineering services in the amount of $120,000.

• Approved a resolution outlining no parking zones in the Hawthorn Preserve subdivision for fire safety reasons.

Residents asked to change alarm batteries this weekend THE HERALD-NEWS Local governments are asking area residents to change the batteries in smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors when they adjust their clocks this weekend because of daylight saving time.

The National Fire Protection Association states that 96 percent of American homes have smoke alarms, but 20 percent do not work because of worn, old or missing batteries, according to a news release from the Homer Township Protection District.

Time springs forward an hour Sunday. Fire departments encourage residents to use that time to also check that alarms and detectors are working, as well.

“Making sure the smoke alarms are working is a simple, effective way to help your family survive an unexpected fire,” Joliet Fire Chief Joe Formhals said in a news release from the city. “A working smoke alarm can double your chances of surviving a fire.”

Formhals also asks residents to assist elderly neighbors and family members in changing batteries.

The peak time for home fire fatalities is between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., when most

families are asleep, according to the Joliet news release.

Smoke alarm maintenance is an effective way to reduce home fire deaths. Families should plan and practice their home fire escape plan, knowing “two ways out” and how they would assist children and those who may require assistance.

Joliet offered in its news release the following safety tips about smoke alarms: • Install smoke alarms on every level of your home. For extra safety, install smoke alarms both inside and outside any sleeping areas.

• Keep smoke alarms clean.

• The “chirping” noise you may hear could mean your battery is low. Replace the battery right away.

• Replace smoke alarms every 10 years.

Carbon monoxide detectors are also necessary life safety devices. Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless, poisonous gas that can build up in your home when fuel burns incompletely, according to a news release from the Plainfield Fire Protection District. Potential sources of carbon monoxide include gas fired heating or cooking appliances and fireplaces when the flue is not opened during use.

NEW YORK – Cardinal Edward Egan, the former archbishop of New York who oversaw a broad and sometimes unpopular financial overhaul of the archdiocese and played a prominent role in the city after the Sept. 11 terror attacks, died Thursday. He was 82.

Egan, who retired in 2009 after nine years as archbishop, died of cardiac arrest at a New York hospital, the archdiocese announced. As a child he survived polio, which affected his health as an adult, and he also used a pacemaker. Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the current archbishop of New York, asked for prayers for Egan and

for his family. Mayor Bill de Blasio said Egan “was a generous man who committed his life to serving others.”

In 2000, Egan was chosen by Pope John Paul II for the difficult job of succeeding largerthan-life Cardinal John O’Connor, who was a major figure not only in the city, but in the country.

From him, Egan inherited an annual deficit of about $20 million. Egan cut spending and laid off staff – and said he wiped out the shortfall within two years.

Yet Egan bristled at the suggestion that he was more a manager than shepherd. In a 2001 interview with The New York Times, he said, “I am about, first and foremost, serv-

ing 413 communities of faith,” he said, referring to the archdiocese’s parishes.

On Sept. 11, after a call from Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, the cardinal spent the day anointing the dead, distributing rosaries to workers as they searched, mostly in vain, for survivors. Egan later presided over funerals for the victims, sometimes three a day.

The cardinal was criticized when he later left the still-grieving city for a Vatican synod, a month-long international meeting of bishops convened by the pope. Egan, who was to work as an aide to John Paul there, said he asked repeatedly for permission to stay in New York, but the pope said Egan was needed in Rome. In

a 2011 interview with The Associated Press, the cardinal called that time, when his loyalty to the city was questioned, “the worst thing that ever happened to me in my life.”

Egan was a tall, imposing man with a voice so deep that his nieces joked he sounded like Darth Vader.

He was known for his love of classical music, bringing a piano to the archbishop’s residence in New York. Soprano Renee Fleming sang at his installation in 2000 in St. Patrick’s Cathedral.

But unlike many previous New York archbishops, Egan did not embrace the chance for a large public presence in New York. He rarely gave news interviews. He was derided by

critics as cold and distant.

In 2002, at the height of the clergy sex abuse crisis that engulfed the entire American church, Egan wrote a letter to parishioners apologizing for any mistakes in responding to victims and stopping abusers.

But a decade later, the cardinal told Connecticut magazine, “I should never have said that.

I did say if we did anything wrong, I’m sorry, but I don’t think we did anything wrong.”

In 2003, Egan snubbed members of a high-profile board the U.S. bishops appointed to oversee their child protection reforms, refusing to celebrate Mass for them when they visited New York and barring them from a Catholic fraternal event.

Supporters say tax break would help kids living in poverty

SPRINGFIELD – Democratic lawmakers sought Thursday to double a tax break for low-income workers, introducing their plan the same morning a child advocacy group released a report showing 1 in 5 Illinois children live in poverty.

Identical measures introduced in the House and the Senate would increase the state’s earned income tax credit from 10 percent to 20 percent, at a cost of more than $44 million in each of the next five years.

Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner has talked about increasing the same tax credit without mentioning specifics, but his office didn’t respond Thursday to a call from The Associated Press seeking comment.

The Illinois Kids Count 2015 report, also released Thursday, found 21 percent of the state’s children were living below the federal poverty line in 2013 – a rate that held steady from the previous year.

Plan would ax university employee tuition breaks for kids

SPRINGFIELD – An Illinois lawmaker is proposing that the state do away with tuition breaks for children of employees at public universities.

A plan from Rep. Jack Franks, D-Marengo, would phase out the 50 percent tuition waivers over the next four years. New students would not get them next fall.

Franks, who chairs the State Government Administration Committee, said he wants to amend his current House bill, which would get rid of waivers this year. Doing that wouldn’t be

AbbVie, in North Chicago, will spend about $21 billion to buy leukemia drugmaker Pharmacyclics in its first major deal attempt since walking away from a $55 billion takeover of Shire last fall, the company announced late Wednesday. The move is bid to add another major revenue producer to a product portfolio that already includes the world’s top-selling drug, the anti-inflammatory Humira. The deal will net AbbVie the blood cancer treatment Imbruvica, which Pharmacyclics makes and then markets with Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen Biotech. AbbVie executives told analysts Thursday their company could reap more than $7 million in annual sales from Imbruvica in a few years.

fair to current students, he said.

The News-Gazette reported that Franks said 2,156 tuition waivers were issued last year, costing state universities nearly $10 million. He said hard choices will have to be made this year with Illinois facing a budget deficit, and that university employees will have to share in sacrifices.

Rep. Kathleen Willis, D-Northlake, said during a committee meeting Wednesday that she’s worried cutting the waivers could drive away “valuable employees.”

Remains of 2 babies put in ceiling at Ind. funeral home

CHICAGO – The remains of two mummified or skeletonized babies found inside small boxes above ceiling tiles at a

funeral home in northwestern Indiana were placed there by an employee last September and taken down the same day by the manager of the facility, a spokesman for the funeral home said Thursday.

Sean Howard, spokesman for Smith, Bizzell & Warner Funeral Home in Gary, said county officials had known for months that the funeral home had the remains and that the funeral home was trying to find birth, death and medical records to determine the identities of the babies.

The Lake County Coroner’s Office retrieved the remains from the funeral home on Wednesday. It was not clear why the coroner’s office waited months to take possession of the remains. Funeral home spokesman Howard held a

news conference Thursday to discuss the unusual incident.

Schmidt first was elected mayor in 2009 and was re-elected to a second term in 2013. He gave his State of the City address at Park Ridge’s City Hall on Monday. He previously was an alderman.

The center will be part of the academic medical campus in Chicago and will be named for the couple. Construction will begin later this year on the site of the former Prentice Women’s Hospital. Simpson is a Northwestern graduate and he and his wife have previously donated funds to the school.

NATION BRIEFS Ringling Bros. to give up elephant acts in 3 years

POLK CITY, Fla. – The Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus says the “Greatest Show on Earth” will go on without elephants.

Animal rights groups took credit for generating the public concern that forced the company to announce its pachyderm retirement plan on Thursday. But Ringling Bros.’ owners described it as the bittersweet result of years of internal family discussions.

“It was a decision 145 years in the making,” said Juliette Feld, referring to P.T. Barnum’s introduction of animals to his “traveling menagerie” in 1870.

Elephants have symbolized this circus since Barnum brought an Asian elephant named Jumbo to America in 1882.

Kenneth Feld – whose father bought the circus in 1967 and who now runs Feld Enterprises Inc. with his three daughters – insisted that animal rights activists weren’t responsible.

The deadlock took the death penalty off the table and left a judge to decide whether to sentence Arias to life in prison or to life with the possibility of release after 25 years. That decision is expected at an April 13 hearing.

Arias was convicted in 2013 of killing her lover, Travis Alexander, but that jury also deadlocked on her punishment, prompting the sentencing retrial that began in October.

Father tells jury about boy’s death at Boston Marathon

By DENISE LAVOIE The Associated Press BOSTON – With Dzhokhar Tsarnaev seated at the defense table no more than 15 feet away Thursday, the father of an 8-yearold boy killed in the Boston Marathon bombing described the moment when he looked down at Martin his son’s pale, Richard torn body and realized he wouldn’t make it.

“I saw a little boy who had his body severely damaged by an explosion,” Bill Richard told the jury, “and I just knew from what I saw that there was no chance, the color of his skin, and so on.”

Martin Richard was one of three people killed in the bombing near the finish line of the race on April 15, 2013.

The boy’s younger sister, 6-year-old Jane, had a leg blown off, while their older brother, Henry, suffered minor injuries.

Their father, testifying at

Tsarnaev’s federal death penalty trial, spoke in a slow, halting voice but remained largely composed as he described the chaos and confusion.

He said he scooped Jane up in one arm and took Henry in the other and “tried to shield both of their eyes” from the carnage around them as he took them away.

Richard took the stand as federal prosecutors continued trying to drive home the consequences of the attack in such heartbreaking detail that Tsarnaev’s lawyers objected – and were overruled.

Tsarnaev, 21, showed no reaction to the testimony and appeared to look straight ahead, not making eye contact with Richard, who sat off to the side in the witness box.

Some of the women on the jury appeared to wince at times during his testimony.

Spectators in the courtroom could be heard crying quietly, including Rebekah Gregory, who lost a leg in the bombing.

As Richard testified, the jury watched a video of the father rushing to help his children and a grievously wound-

ed Jane struggling to get up, only to fall down.

A prosecutor showed Richard a photo and circled a face – a young man in a white baseball cap worn backward – who could be seen just a few feet behind Jane and Martin as the youngsters stood on a metal barricade, watching the race. It was Tsarnaev, shortly before the two pressure-cooker bombs went off.

Richard said he himself suffered shrapnel injuries, burns on his legs and two perforated eardrums. His wife, Denise, was blinded in one eye and had other injuries.

Earlier Thursday, Roseann Sdoia testified that she saw two flashes of white light at her feet near the finish line, looked down, and for a split second thought to herself: I’m wearing strappy sandals.

She quickly realized she was looking at her foot dangling from her mangled leg.

“Someone came running over to me and told me I had to get out of there. I told them I couldn’t get up. I didn’t have a leg,” a sobbing Sdoia told the jury.

Hillary Clinton emails eyed for release, security

By STEPHEN BRAUN and BRADLEY KLAPPER The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The government will examine thousands of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s emails for public release – and for possible security lapses – after revelations she used a private account to conduct official business as secretary of state, a senior State Department official said Thursday.

Clinton’s extensive use of private emails has raised questions in the buildup to her expected presidential run about whether she adhered to the letter or spirit of accountability laws.

The official said the department would review 55,000 pages of emails amassed from Clinton’s personal files to determine if there were any instances where she improperly transmitted sensitive information. The official was not authorized to be quoted on the matter and spoke on the condition of anonymity.

AP file photo

Then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton testifies Jan. 23, 2013, on Capitol Hill in Washington before a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing.

State Department policy holds that information that is not classified as secret but contains sensitive national security or diplomatic information can only be conveyed on secure channels except for certain circumstances, the official explained.

Clinton’s extensive use of private emails heightened se-

curity risks for her communications, chiefly the potential for inadvertent disclosure of such sensitive information and danger from hackers, several information security experts told The Associated Press.

Secretary of State John Kerry, in Saudi Arabia, said Thursday his department “will undertake this task as rapidly as possible in order to make sure that we are dealing with the sheer volume in a responsible way.”

Officials said Thursday the review could take months to complete, potentially a drawnout distraction for Clinton and an unnerving development for the many Democrats who see her as the party’s presidential nominee-in-waiting for 2016.

The review was prompted by the disclosure that Clinton, in a departure from predecessors, relied exclusively on the private account for emails about government business.

The emails were sent from a private computer server using

an Internet address that traces back to Clinton’s family home in Chappaqua, New York.

The department announced the review soon after Clinton addressed the matter for the first time, saying on Twitter: “I want the public to see my email. I asked State to release them.”

Clinton aides and the State Department both say she never received or transmitted classified information on her private email account. But unclassified diplomatic details and internal matters are sometimes considered sensitive and can be targeted by hackers and foreign governments.

“She had other ways of communicating through classified email through her assistants or her staff,” said Marie Harf, speaking for the State Department. Officials have said Clinton turned over more than 55,000 pages of emails to the department.

Clinton’s use of a private email account for official business appeared to contradict

instructions from her own office in June 2011 to all State Department employees. In a cable from Clinton’s office, employees were advised to “avoid conducting official Department business from your personal e-mail accounts.” It cited reports that unspecified “online adversaries” were targeting personal email accounts of State Department employees.

The cable was first obtained

by Fox News.

The State Department told the AP that Clinton’s instructions in 2011 only applied to emails containing “sensitive but unclassified” information, a category that includes personal information about employees or the public, business secrets, details of ongoing investigations or records about visa or asylum applications.

Only one instruction in the cable directly referred to rules about such information, an existing ban on anyone auto-forwarding government emails to their personal accounts.

States on edge about future of health insurance markets

By KELLI KENNEDY The Associated Press MIAMI – Mixed signals from the Supreme Court have states on edge about the future of health insurance subsidies for millions of Americans. And a summer decision from the justices leaves little time for backup planning.

Many governors, especially Republicans, want the federal government to craft a contingency plan and at least one governor – in Pennsylvania – is pursuing a state exchange, which would make sure his state was able to receive the subsidy.

During oral arguments Wednesday, the justices appeared divided in the latest challenge to President Barack Obama’s law. Opponents of the law argued that only residents in about a dozen states that set up their own insurance markets can get federal subsidies to help pay their premiums. The administration says the law provides for subsidies in all 50 states.

The case sets up an intriguing political backdrop for states like Florida and Texas, both led by Republican governors staunchly opposed to the law. The states now find themselves with the most at stake with large numbers enrollees who could take their anger to the ballot box if they lose coverage.

Florida has more people on the health care plan than any other state and most of the 1.6 million people receive the subsidy, along with many of Texas’ 1.2 million enrollees.

Austin, Texas, resident Donna Allen, a part-time community college student who also runs a house cleaning service, worries what will happen if she loses the her $400 monthly tax credit. She pays $85 for health insurance she bought on the federal exchange.

“We just don’t make the money rich people do, so what am I supposed to do, die? Disappear?” Allen said.

Florida Gov. Rick Scott echoed the sentiments of many Republican governors when he

AP file photo

John Phillips works Dec. 11 at his auto repair shop in Decatur. Phillips is quick to say he’s not a fan of President Barack Obama’s health care law, but said he’s worried about the outcome of a U.S. Supreme Court case challenging the law’s subsidies in roughly three dozen states, including Illinois. said Wednesday that the White House should outline what actions it would take under any outcome in the court case. He and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott have not said what steps they would take if the burden fell back to the states.

“In the absence of leadership from the president, the

new Republican-led Congress should quickly propose solutions to undo the federal exchange monopoly,” Scott said in a statement.

The “let the federal government figure it out” attitude may not serve Republicans well politically on the eve of a presidential election year if the court

rules against the subsidies.

“As far as I’m aware the governor doesn’t have a contingency plan and that’s really not surprising considering Republicans have really had their head in the sand on this issue for so long. People are dying as a result of our inaction,” said Florida Democratic minority leader Rep. Mark Pafford.

Several states, including Tennessee and Missouri, are proposing laws that would ban or eliminate state exchanges.

North Carolina’s Republican-led Legislature passed a law forbidding agencies from putting any resources toward a state exchange, but Attorney General Roy Cooper, a Democrat mounting a gubernatorial campaign, joined with 21 other states and the District of Columbia asking the Supreme Court to uphold the subsidies on the federal exchange.

They argue that state leaders chose not to establish their own exchange based on the understanding that using the federal marketplace wouldn’t penalize their citizens.

March Madness reaches fever pitch Boys basketball regional finals figure to produce plenty of thrills VIEWS Dick Goss March Madness.

If you ever wondered why that simple combination of words has had such staying power, you should have witnessed Lincoln-Way West’s 54-53 victory over Joliet Catholic boys basketball on Wednesday night in the semifinals of the Class 3A Coal City Regional.

JCA fell behind, 47-34, with 2 minutes 59 seconds left. There’s no way it was even going to be close. But then the Jalen Jackson Show – which Lincoln-Way West’s defense had stifled ever since Jackson hit a half-court shot at the buzzer to give the Hilltoppers a 23-18 halftime lead, returned with a vengeance.

Jackson hit a 3-pointer to begin the comeback and in the final minute hit an athletic layup and two long 3s. Before you could catch your breath, it was going to overtime at 50-all.

West was the No. 1 seed and is solid. The Warriors’ shortcoming was that they missed six free throws in the fourth quarter and overtime.

But they will get that corrected and be a factor as the postseason moves forward.

Morris will give its best shot in Friday night’s championship game, but West (19-7) is the top seed for a reason. The Warriors survived the Jalen Jackson Show. Who knows? That may be the game that jump-starts a long tournament run – not unlike last year, when JCA knocked off top-seeded West in the regional semifinal and reached the sectional final.

Regardless of what happens with the Warriors from here on, however, Wednesday’s game was March Madness in spades.

Of course, much of the area attention is on the Class 4A Bolingbrook Sectional, where the four regional championship games are on tap at 7 p.m. Friday.

Minooka’s Jonny Butler drives for a layup against Joliet West during Tuesday night’s Class 4A Joliet West Regional. Minooka won, 61-45, and will face Neuqua Valley for the championship Friday night.

The regional semifinals brought no surprises in terms of the outcomes. So the matchups for the championship games are No. 1 Neuqua Valley vs. No. 8 Minooka at Joliet West, No. 2 Bolingbrook vs. No. 7 Joliet Central at Romeoville, No. 3 Plainfield North vs. No 6 Plainfield East at Lincoln-Way North, and No. 4 Providence vs. No. 5 Oswego at Yorkville.

Pressed to pick a winner in each game, I would go with all four of the higher seeds. But remember, this is March Madness. Let’s take a look.

Even though Providence is “only” the No. 4 seed, the Celtics have had their full complement of players back late in season and now are playing as if they are one of the best teams in the state. In fact, there probably are more observers picking Providence to go on and win the sectional than are selecting anyone else.

First things first, however. The Celtics have to avoid believing such discussion and go out and do the job. If they play well and continue to shoot well, they should eliminate Oswego.

Any or all of Miles Boykin, Troy Howat, Jack Brody, Jake Rost or Tyler Pygon can get hot on a given night for coach Tim Trendel’s team and supply the offensive firepower, and Boykin’s presence and athleticism does so much for the team.

Neuqua Valley was so impressive Tuesday – hitting 3s and scoring from inside at will – against Oswego East that you wonder what youthful Minooka can do. But if you don’t feel the Indians have a chance, you haven’t watched them under coach Scott Tanaka.

When Minooka is at its best, the opponent has limited time of possession. If Larry Roberts can get hot from outside, freshman Keegan

Graebner can continue to take care of the ball against pressure and Joe Butler can work his magic inside, the Indians may be primed for an upset. Minooka is not a No. 8 seed you want to see coming your way.

From size and talent standpoints, you would not give Joliet Central much of a shot against Bolingbrook.

But the Steelmen have found a way to derail the Raiders on occasion, including once early this season.

Central has Taquan Sims and Jerry Gillespie both playing now, and that makes coach Jeff Corcoran’s team much more of a threat.

However, Bolingbrook has talents such as Prentiss Nixon, Brodric Thomas and big Julian Torres on its side.

If Providence is not going to win the sectional, how about Bolingbrook as a pick to win it on its home floor?

Finally, there is what could be our area’s game of

the night – the Plainfield North vs. Plainfield East matchup at Lincoln-Way North.

I see this one going down to the wire, with last-minute heroics deciding it. A couple weeks ago, I definitely would have gone with North because of more scoring balance to go with Trevor Stumpe. East had Aaron Jordan and not a lot else the Bengals could count on to put the ball in the basket.

However, 6-foot-7 junior Elyjah Goss has gotten better and better, and James Claar and Cole Kotopka have had games of late where they have contributed some offense around the basket.

That means a more even playing field.

I’ll stay with the Tigers – but again, only after one of those March Madness type of finishes.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

No. 2 Lewis eyes ‘huge weekend,’ faces Maryville in GLVC tourney quarterfinal

By JEFF DeGRAW Shaw Media Correspondent

Playing on the road has not been a problem for the Flyers this season. They are 16-0 away from Neil Carey Arena.

“Playing on the road is not a deterrent,” Carlsen said. “This group has played and won big road games before. The experience on the floor is the key element. It doesn’t matter where this group plays,” Experience is something the Flyers don’t lack. This season is the third in a row with at least 23 wins, with the majority of the roster being a part of all of those seasons.

“This team is all about the experience they have together,” Carlsen said. “They have established themselves, grown

together, really understand their roles and help each other.”

Flyers junior Jamie Johnson was named the GLVC Player of the Year and led the GLVC in scoring at 18.3 points a game.

“Being named Player of the Year in the conference is a credit to my teammates,” Johnson said. “This has always been about team. Our team chemistry is really special. The awards are nice and the recognition is great, no matter which of us receives it, but we want that trophy at the end of this season.”

Johnson joins teammate Mariyah Brawner-Henley – who won Player of the Year honors last year – as first-team all-conference selections, and both are on the all-defensive

team.

“This has been a fun year so far with all of the success we have had,” Brawner-Henley said. “We set goals for everything, and we still have a few to attain. We lost in the first round of the GLVC tournament last year. We remember that. It is one game at a time.

“I’m so happy for Jamie. It’s nice to keep the player of the year award right here with the Flyers.”

Carlsen said this year’s Flyers are more than just about those two players, and senior Jess Reinhart has been there for all of the ride over four years.

“Jess is willing to take a back seat statistically on any given night,” Carlsen said.

“She is and has been a huge part of our success.”

“I’ve had an awesome time at Lewis,” Reinhart said. “Every year has been a different journey, but this year has been the best ride of them all.”

Carlsen also pointed to seniors Kristin Itschner and Nikki Nellen as part of that important core of the team.

“If we have an X-factor, it has to be getting back Alexus Grayer [a redshirt senior],” Carlsen said. “She accepts the role of coming of the bench, scoring, rebounding, whatever we need. We haven’t had that in the past.”

One key statistic that shows Lewis’ unselfish play is that the Flyers are second in the nation in assists per game (19.2). They are also third is scoring (82.2) and fifth in field goal percentage (.469).

The championship game is set for 3:30 p.m. Sunday and could be a matchup against Drury. Mention the name Drury around the players, and you see that look in there eyes and a wry smile.

“That is what we want.

We would love a shot to play them,” Brawner-Henley said.

“There would be no need for any motivation,” Reinhart added. “It would be exciting.”

• Friday, March 6, 2015

ROMEOVILLE – The accolades and awards are rolling in for the Lewis University women’s basketball team. But before any of that recognition can be enjoyed, the Flyers must finish a job they set out to do at the beginning of the season.

The postseason begins this weekend with the Great Lakes Valley Conference tournament. The Flyers ended GLVC play during the regular season 17-1. The 17 conference wins are the most in school history.

Lewis (27-1), ranked No. 2 in the latest NCAA Division II poll, is the No. 2 seed in the GLVC tournament behind Drury, which handed the Flyers their only loss, 75-72, on their home floor Feb. 12.

“This is a huge weekend for us,” Lewis coach Lisa Carlsen said. “There is a ton at stake.

This sets up everything for the NCAA tournament. We win the GLVC, and we would get to host an NCAA regional.”

On Wednesday, Carlsen was named GLVC Coach of the Year for the second time in three years.

“This is a collective effort,” Carlsen said. “We have a great group, from the team, to the staff and the supportive cast.

We all work so well together.

This is such a great group to coach. They are so unselfish and really play for each other.”

The tournament takes place this weekend at the Family Arena in St. Charles, Missouri. The Flyers open against Maryville (Missouri) at 6 p.m.

Friday in quarterfinal action.

The 10th-seeded Saints beat No. 7 seed William Jewell on Sunday to advance.

The Flyers beat Maryville, 88-77, on Jan. 10 at Neil Carey Arena.

“Maryville is the scariest team in the tournament,” Carlsen said. “Most people forget that they have been in the championship game the past three years. They have that tournament experience that

PREP WRESTLING RECAP

Many memorable moments in wrestling season

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com With another successful season of wrestling in the books for teams from the Joliet area, here’s a look at some of the big stories that took place on the mat in 2014-15.

Six state champions: Three individuals captured state titles in Class 3A and the same number won championships in Class 1A, doing so for one program.

Lockport junior Shayne Oster joined his brothers, Jake and Jameson, as state champions after winning the Class 3A title at 138 pounds.

It’s believed that it was just the fourth time in state history that three brothers from the same program won titles.

Plainfield East sophomore Michael McGee became not only the first medal winner for the Bengals but also their initial champion after he claimed top honors in Class 3A at 106. He joins Chris Traversa and Ryan Prater as the only state champs from District 202 schools.

Another athlete from Lockport also won a championship, St. Rita sophomore Austin O’Connor, who claimed the Class 3A title at 132. A year ago, he won the 106 championship, making him one of only three Mustangs to win multiple titles.

Coal City seniors Cody Minnick and Corey Jurzak and junior Joey Rivera also won Class 1A titles, equaling the school record for championships in one year, which was set in 2008 when Lance Evans, Chase Odeen and Noah Roseland pulled off the feat.

Minnick followed up on his 113 title from a year ago by winning at 120. The three-time finalist joins Todd Combes as the school’s only four-time medal winners. After taking second place the past two years, Jurzak claimed the top spot at 132. And Rivera captured his first state medal by winning the title at 106.

Plainfield South’s Eric Johnson was hoping to become his program’s first champion but he fell in the

Class 3A 220 title match. And Wilmington’s Nick Hawkins also settled for second place in Class 1A at 160.

Suffering defeats in the Class 3A semifinals were Lockport’s Abdullah Assaf (third at 113), Trevell Timmons (fifth at 152) and Tyler Johnson (fourth at 195), Joliet West’s Darvell Flagg (fourth at 106), Minooka’s Carson Oughton (third at 170) and Lincoln-Way Central’s Bryan Ditchman (third at 285).

Lincoln-Way West’s Noah Keefe (third at 132) lost in the Class 2A semifinals, and Seneca’s Sage Friese (fourth at 138) and Coal City’s Riley Kauzlaric (third at 182) fell in the Class 1A semifinals.

Four squads advance to state: The area tied the mark it established in 2010 by qualifying four teams to the dual team state finals in Bloomington. And two of the squads that advanced wound up capturing trophies for top-four finishes.

Lincoln-Way Central advanced for the third straight year; and Coal City, Lemont and Lockport made return trips following a few years absence. Coal City overcame the longest wait, returning to the competition for the first time since 1999, while Lemont made its first trip since 2011 and Lockport was back for the first time since 2012.

Coach Josh Oster’s Porters made the most of their second appearance, rallying for a dramatic 33-30 quarterfinal win over Deerfield to assure them of their first trophy in the sport. Lockport wound up taking fourth place in Class 3A. Meanwhile, coach Mark Masters’ Coalers beat Vandalia in the quarterfinals and Gibson City-Melvin-Sibley in the third-place meet after falling to eventual Class 1A champion Dakota. The finish earned the program its fifth trophy in the sport, and first since 1998.

Coach Jason DePolo’s Knights fell to Class 3A runner-up Sandburg in the quarterfinals, while coach John St. Clair’s Indians dropped a Class 2A quarterfinal loss to Crystal Lake Central.

Despite winning its fifth straight regional and being ranked among the top Class 2A teams again, Lincoln-Way West fell one win shy of making its second state appearance. Coach Brian Glynn’s squad lost in the sectional to eventual runner-up Washington.

Area fares well at sectionals: Eight of the 14 sectional winners at the Class 3A Normal Community Sectional came from area schools. It was a similar story in the Class 1A Wilmington Sectional, where seven local individuals won titles.

Capturing championships at Normal Community were Lockport’s Assaf, Oster and Johnson, Plainfield East’s Zach Krause and McGee, Mi-

nooka’s Oughton, Plainfield North’s Luke Smiley and Plainfield South’s Johnson.

Winning titles at the Wilmington Sectional were Coal City’s Rivera, Minnick, Jurzak and Kauzlaric and Wilmington’s Austin Headrick, Ryan Berman and Hawkins.

The lone Class 2A sectional champion was Lemont’s Jim Brennan at De La Salle.

And St. Rita’s O’Connor won a 3A sectional title at Downers Grove North.

Six programs win regional titles: A split in the regional field allowed state-ranked Lockport and Lincoln-Way Central both to claim Class 3A regional titles. Plainfield South just missed winning its first title and took third in a three-way battle with Moline and Yorkville.

Lincoln-Way West and Lemont easily captured Class 2A regional championships, while Coal City and Peotone both were Class 1A regional title winners.

GLVC MEN’S BASKETBALL QUARTERFINAL: INDIANAPOLIS 70, LEWIS 61

SUBMITTED REPORT ST. CHARLES, Mo – The combination of a season-high 19 turnovers and 50 points scored by Indianapolis’ Jordan Loyd and Joe Lawson proved too much for the Lewis men’s basketball team as the No. 13 Greyhounds earned the 70-61 Great Lakes Valley Conference quarterfi-

nal win Thursday afternoon over the Flyers at the Family Center.

Loyd, a junior guard, scored a game-high 32 points on 9 for 18 shooting, including three 3-pointers, and 11 of 12 free throws. Lawson had 18 points and nine rebounds. The Greyhounds scored 17 points off Flyer turnovers.

With the victory, Indianapolis improves to 23-4, while the Flyers fall to 218. Indianapolis advances to play top-seeded Bellarmine on Saturday, while the Flyers will learn their postseason fate Sunday when the NCAA Tournament is announced.

Freshman guard Max Strus topped the Flyers with

18 points, including 11 of 12 from the free throw line.

Senior guard Ryan Jackson posted 15 points, while classmate Gabe Williams came off the bench to score 11.

Lewis shot 39.6 percent on 19 of 48 and was 3 of 17 from 3-point range. Indianapolis connected on 22 of 50, a .440 mark, and hit 7 of 20 from beyond the arc.

AREA ROUNDUP

SUBMITTED REPORTS GENEVA, Ohio – University of St. Francis senior Kaitlin Hoy (Minooka) qualified for the finals in the 5,000-meter run Thursday on the first day of the 2015 NAIA Women’s Indoor Track & Field Championships at SPIRE Institute.

WOMEN’S TENNIS

Lynn 9, Lewis 0: The Flyers (2-4) dropped two losses to Palm Beach Atlantic, 5-4, and Lynn, 9-0.

In the match against

Palm Beach Atlantic, Nora Mindiyarova and Ana Banic earned the 8-6 triumph over PBA’s Valerie Nagovitcinia and Veena Vasquez at No. 1 pairs. Mindiyarova later would claim a 6-2, 6-1 victory over Nagovitcinia at No. 1 singles, while Banic earned a default win against Yoanna Peshev at No. 3 singles. Lewis’ final victory came at No. 4 singles, as Jill Wetmore beat Maja Jovic, 6-4, 7-6.

“I’m so proud of our fight and effort tonight,” said Lewis coach Brett Bridel about the match against Palm Beach Atlantic. “This was a six-hour battle, and everyone fought with everything they had. We just came up one match short.”

BULLS 108, THUNDER 105

E’Twaun Moore lifts Bulls past Westbrook, Thunder The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – E’Twaun Moore hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 2.1 seconds remaining, and the Bulls rallied Thursday night to beat the Oklahoma City Thunder, 108-105, ending Russell Westbrook’s triple-double streak at four.

Westbrook had 43 points on 14-of-32 shooting and added seven assists and eight rebounds. On Wednesday night

in Oklahoma City, he had career highs with 49 points and 16 rebounds and added 10 assists in an overtime victory over Philadelphia.

Westbrook scored 19 points in the third quarter to help the Thunder take a 79-72 lead into the fourth. The Bulls pulled within one on Nikola Mirotic’s two free throws with 2:16 remaining. Westbrook then split two with 1:07 to play, and Enes Kanter rebounded the miss and scored to give Okla-

homa City a 103-99 lead.

Mirotic made a 3-pointer, and Westbrook hit a jumper with 37.1 seconds left. Mirotic made two free throws with 28.9 to go, pulling the Bulls within one. Westbrook then had an air-ball with the shotclock expiring, and Moore followed with his 3-pointer. After the 3, Westbrook stepped out of bounds after taking the inbounds pass.

Mirotic finished with 26 points, Pau Gasol had 21

points and 12 rebounds, Mike Dunleavy also had 21 points, and Moore added 19. Joakim Noah had 12 rebounds, putting him over 5,000 for his career.

Serge Ibaka had 25 points and nine rebounds for Oklahoma City.

Westbrook was the first player to have four straight triple-doubles since Michael Jordan had seven in 1989. The All-Star MVP scored at least 40 points for the third straight game.

Maddon makes debut with Cubs in spring tie with A’s

By JAY COHEN The Associated Press MESA, Ariz. – Joe Maddon gushed about the ballpark and the fans. He praised starter Travis Wood and said he liked the performance by his team.

Surrounded by his family under a beautiful blue sky, the new manager of the Cubs sounded quite pleased with his first game of spring Joe Maddon training.

“Just a really, really nice, wonderful first day,” he said after a 2-all tie against Barry Zito and the Oakland Athletics.

Travis Wood pitched two perfect innings for a splitsquad of Cubs, and Mike Olt hit a two-run homer in the second inning.

Maddon opted out of his contract with Tampa Bay over the winter and then agreed to take over the Cubs, who begin the year with big expectations

after an active offseason.

“I thought we played well,” he said. “Oakland pitches well always.”

Zito pitched two innings in his first spring game for the A’s after taking last year off.

The left-hander allowed two hits, struck out two and walked none.

Zito retired his first five batters, including strikeouts of Starlin Castro and Miguel Montero. But he hit Chris Coghlan in the second and then yielded the long drive to left by Olt. “That changeup, got to tip my hat to that guy. He squared it up pretty good,” Zito said.

“That’s still a pitch right now that the consistency is not there yet, but I saw some good things.”

Zito hasn’t appeared in a regular-season game since Sept. 29, 2013, with San Francisco. He agreed to a minor league deal with Oakland in February and gets a $1 million, one-year contract if he makes the 40-man roster.

“It doesn’t feel like a year and half,” said Zito, who spent his first seven seasons with the A’s. “You just kind of go right back to where you were.”

Wood is trying to win the No. 5 slot in the Cubs’ rotation after he struggled last season.

The left-hander made the NL All-Star team in 2013, and then slipped to an 8-13 record and a 5.03 ERA last year.

He struck out Coco Crisp leading off the game and also fanned Mark Canha for his final out.

“I learned a lot last year (about) when you fail, picking yourself back up and getting back after it,” Wood said.

“That’s what we took into the offseason and hopefully we keep moving forward.”

Off the field, the Cubs agreed to a minor league deal with Phil Coke, adding the veteran reliever to the competition for a lefty specialist in their bullpen.

A person with direct knowledge of the situation said Coke is planning to join the Cubs’ major league camp on Friday.

SPRING TRAINING: DODGERS 6, WHITE SOX 1

Kershaw efficient in spring debut The ASSOCIATED PRESS GLENDALE, Ariz. – Clayton Kershaw appears ready to pick up where he left off last season.

The reigning National League MVP and Cy Young Award winner retired all six hitters he faced in his spring debut and the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the White Sox, 6-1, on Thursday.

Kershaw struck out three, including Sox slugger Jose Abreu looking on a slow curve.

“It felt good,” Kershaw said. “The first one is just good to get out there and make sure you feel good physically. The results are obviously something that you look for, but maybe not the most important thing.

“Overall, a good first day.”

Kershaw, already a threetime Cy Young Award winner at 26, was 21-3 with a 1.77 ERA for the Dodgers last year.

“It seemed like he’s been kind of hit in the last couple of springs, if I remember right,” manager Don Mattingly said. “He was really sharp.

His breaking ball was good, it looked like command was good.”

Kershaw was pleased with the early results.

“I was able to work in all my pitches and make some adjustments when I needed to,” he said, adding that he left a few sliders up in the first inning, but fixed that issue by the second.

Kershaw’s velocity and pitches seemed to be there Thursday. His next start is Tuesday against Colorado, in

building toward opening day on April 6, when Kershaw will face San Diego at Dodger Stadium.

“The way you build up arm strength, hopefully your velocity is there at the outset,” Kershaw said. “But you want to be able to do that in the regular season. At least for me, it doesn’t change a lot.”

Yasiel Puig, in his spring debut, drove in a run with a groundout against Sox starter John Danks, who also went two innings. He gave up two hits.

Los Angeles’ O’Koyea Dickson doubled in a run in the sixth and Kyle Jensen hit a two-run homer off Michael Ynoa in the eighth. Courtney Hawkins homered in the ninth off Jeremy Kehrt for the Sox’s only run.

OUR VIEW

Thumbs-up to encouraging literacy locally The Herald-News Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs-ups: Thumbs-up: to stressing the importance of reading to area children. For World Read Aloud Day on Wednesday – a worldwide event encouraging youths and adults to celebrate the power of words and the universal right to literacy – Forest Park Individual Education School in Joliet invited community guests and alums to come read to its students. On Monday – Read Across America Day, sponsored by the National Education Association and Dr. Seuss Enterprises to honor Dr. Seuss and encourage reading and learning – preschoolers at Bonnie McBeth Early Learning Center in Plainfield used books by Dr. Seuss in their learning exercises. There were similar events in other area schools throughout the week. The benefits of reading to children at a young age, or having them read, are many; we’re thrilled our local schools are doing their part to encourage reading and literacy.

Thumbs-up: to Joliet Junior College for actively recruiting international students and starting several programs to support them on campus. International students add diversity to campus, which can enrich the educational experience of both the students from the foreign country as well as those who live locally. Schools with a global student body can mean sharing different cultural events and traditions, leading to a broader mindset of the world. Plus, it helps put JJC on the map in other countries. It’s a win-win all around.

Thumbs-up: to the Sisters of St. Francis of Mary Immaculate – currently celebrating its 150th year – for a long and ongoing tradition of fine arts education in the Joliet area. In an era of STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) and school budget cuts in visual art, music and theater, the sisters have continued to expand their programs. Kindergarten students at the Franciscan Learning Center learn to read music.

High school students at Joliet Catholic Academy can choose from an ever-widening selection of art-related courses, including computer art. Even retired individuals living at Our Lady of Angels can participate in creative programs, such as the chime choir. Although there is no longer any harp music emanating from the motherhouse parlor, there are plenty of people in the community still building on the talents the sisters first nurtured.

AMENDMENT

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Romeoville history should inspire local residents To the Editor:

Romeoville continues to have a great background that needs to be explored, now and in the future.

I worked eight years for what is now the White Oak Library. I was privileged to work with the Romeoville Historical Society.

My mentors included Dorothy Hassert, Mabel Hrpcka, Joyce Kinder, Gladys Hackey and many more. These people are no longer with us. They are in our local Romeoville books and never will be forgotten.

Road. This is a legacy I am proud of.

Our present youth call out to belong and learn about our history. They need to know about our past, present and future. Our children need a sense of history and structure.

“Bad” history (Holocaust) should never be forgotten. “Good” history in the making are homes for our “wounded warriors” and to always remember our veterans.

As an adult, it is my responsibility to empower our youth to study history. Hope is eternal.

Our Romeoville Historical Society now celebrates 35 years. We have had an open house, awareness days and more. Our aim is to preserve the heart of Romeoville.

Our historical society has a dedicated president, Nancy Hackett.

Her knowledge guided us toward our first book of old Romeoville.

We are now in the process of another book. Nancy is a strong mentor for everyone, and we are grateful for her leadership. I applaud her continued persistence.

As a wise trustee of Romeoville said to me, “You do not know where you are going if you do not know where you are from.”

Our past and present are symbolic of our old and present residents. It is a legacy left to us to be proud, inspire, uplift and endorse.

Joliet Franciscans will host artwork/music celebration March 15 More online

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com JOLIET – On March 15, classical harpist Wilhelmine Vidmar will greet attendees to the Joliet Franciscans’ “Celebration of the Fine Arts” with the perhaps the ultimate tribute – her harp music.

As a 9-year-old in the mid-1950s, Vidmar, of Plainfield, began taking piano and harp lessons from Sister M. Charles Zieverink (deceased), a member of the Sisters of St. Francis of Mary Immaculate in Joliet, also known as the Joliet Franciscans.

Vidmar said Zieverink insisted those lessons continue during those years Vidmar was a student at the former all-girls St. Francis Academy – where Vidmar played harp in the school orchestra – as well as the College of St. Francis, both in Joliet.

“My mother would say, ‘Too bad you didn’t pick up the flute,’ ” Vidmar said. “It would be easier to carry.”

Through the years, Vidmar has played harp at weddings and various other events, and she still practices several times a week.

“I enjoy the feel and sound of it,” Vidmar said. “It’s very soothing.”

The four sponsoring institutions of the Joliet Franciscans – Franciscan Learning Center, Joliet Catholic Academy, University of St. Francis and Our Lady of Angels – will display art and perform musical selections in the free one-hour show, part of the order’s 150th anniversary celebration, said Regina Block, chief advancement officer at the University of St Francis.

“We’re just inviting people to come and celebrate [the sisters’] heritage,” Block said, “and to show our love and support for their years of service to the community.”

“With bells, the deeper the note, the bigger the bell,” Kloc said. “I thought that would be too difficult for the residents.”

Peg Stoiber, chair of JCA’s fine arts department, said the school’s fine arts program has continued to expand ever since she first stepped through its doors in 1965 as a St. Francis Academy freshman.

Music students today learn everything from appreciation to theory, Stoiber said. The art program has expanded to include two computer art classes, she added.

“We have a large variety of classes for our students,” Stoiber said. “We deal with everyone, from the serious [art] students who wants to onto college to the students who need an outlet.”

PUZZLES SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Two possibilities for the price of one

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Robert Benchley, a humorist who died in 1945, said, “In America there are two classes of travel -- first class, and with children.”

In today’s deal there are two firstclass problems. And if your children play bridge, show them this column.

South is in three no-trump. After West leads the heart queen, how should declarer plan the play? And what should he do differently if the spade ace and spade two are exchanged between the North and South hands?

In the given auction, North’s three-diamond rebid was game-invitational. (If South had the spade ace as well, he would have rebid two spades, then the last two bids would have been the same.)

South starts with seven top tricks: one spade, two hearts, two diamonds and two clubs. The obvious line for two more tricks is to play on diamonds, where only a 3-2 split is needed (a priori, 67.8 percent). To attack clubs requires a 3-3 break (a priori, 35.53 percent). And if the spade ace is in the South hand, that is the right line. Declarer should take the first trick and duck (lose) a diamond.

However, with the spade ace in the dummy, South can get home if either diamonds are 3-2 or clubs are 3-3, which raises the a priori odds to 79.25 percent.

Declarer, after taking trick one, should cash dummy’s top diamonds.

If the suit splits 3-2, he plays a third round and coasts home with an overtrick. But when diamonds break badly, South turns to clubs and, with this layout, makes his contract.

If your children do not play bridge, teach them immediately! **

ANSWER TO PREVIOUS PUZZLE B R O O R A E D L A X S L L O U E N G S

• Endocarditis. Endocarditis occurs when an infection of the heart valves causes them to become damaged. This can cause a tight or a leaky heart valve, which then causes a murmur.

Heart murmurs often do not cause symptoms.

However, when the heart damage that causes the murmur also causes the heart to malfunction, symptoms occur. They can include shortness of breath, light-headedness, rapid heartbeat and chest pain.

Murmurs that do not cause symptoms do not require treatment, though your doctor should monitor them regularly.

When treatment is required, it varies based on the cause of the murmur.

• A tight or leaky heart valve. Medications can treat symptoms. In severe cases, a diseased valve may be surgically corrected or replaced with an artificial valve.

• Mitral valve prolapse.

Palpitations may be treated with medications.

In rare, severe cases, the abnormal valve is repaired or replaced surgically.

• Congenital heart problems. Severe cases need to be corrected surgically.

• Endocarditis. Bacterial endocarditis is treated with several weeks of intravenous antibiotics.

Sometimes, the infected heart valve must be replaced.

One of the most important things that a doctor does during a physical examination is listen for a heart murmur – and to distinguish those that are not a problem (most of them) from those that are.

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff

F A R I S

Dear Doctor K: What is a heart murmur? How is it treated?

Dear Reader: A heart murmur is a sound made by turbulent blood flow within the heart. (Think whitewater rapids as opposed to a gently flowing river.) Your doctor hears this sound with a stethoscope.

Most often, a murmur occurs in a healthy heart.

Sometimes, people have murmurs just with a normal flow of blood through their hearts. In other cases, a heart murmur may indicate a problem. Murmurs may be caused by a structural abnormality of a heart valve. Heart valves normally cause blood to be pumped in only one direction. When, for example, blood is being pulled in the wrong direction by gravity, the valve keeps that from happening.

Heart murmurs also may be due to an abnormal connection between two parts of the heart.

Some causes of heart murmurs include: • A tight or leaky heart valve. Heart valves control blood flow from the heart’s upper chambers to its lower chambers, and from the lower chambers out to the rest of the body. A murmur can be heard if a valve becomes narrow, interfering with the outflow of blood. A murmur also can be heard if a leak causes blood to flow backward, in the wrong direction, through a valve.

• Mitral valve prolapse.

In this condition, the mitral valve fails to close properly. As a result, blood leaks back from the heart’s lower left chamber to the upper left chamber.

I’ve put an illustration of a healthy and a prolapsed mitral valve on my website, AskDoctorK.com.

• Congenital heart problems. Some children are born with abnormalities in the way the heart and the blood vessels attached to the heart are built.

These abnormalities often cause murmurs.

Dear Abby: My husband and I are both Caucasian. Recently, we adopted a beautiful mixed-race baby girl. She’s Vietnamese, African-American and Hispanic. She is not even 4 months old, and already we have experienced some negative comments from strangers.

Where we live is progressive and open-minded, and I’m not so much concerned about our neighborhood or schools. But I’m no dummy. I know we’re going to encounter people who have “questions” or unwarranted “opinions” (to put it nicely).

I’m not trying to educate those who choose to remain ignorant, nor reason with the unreasonable, or even explain our family and our choices. I just want a quick, witty response that tells people their not-so-nice comments are unwelcome and, to put it frankly, back off. Any suggestion? – Open-Minded

Real Life Adventures

Dear Open-Minded: According to the 2010 census, 9 million Americans (2.9 percent of the population) are multiracial. It also showed that the number of people who reported multiple races grew by a larger percentage than those reporting a single race.

Frankly, I don’t think you should say anything “witty” to a bigot. Just smile and say, “It’s the wave of the future.

Get used to it.”

Dear Abby: For the past year I have been with a man I love dearly. We live together and share our lives as independent young adults.

The problem is his mother. She was cold and distant to him when he was a child, and her emotional abuse has continued into his adulthood.

Holidays are a nightmare, visits a chore, and his phone calls with her often leave him in tears.

I wanted him to come with

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips me to spend the holidays with my family, but she guilted him into spending them with her. I hate seeing him go through this, and I don’t know what I can do about it. I think she is a toxic influence and he needs to cut her out of his life altogether. Advice? –

Protecting My Guy

Dear Protecting: What you think about his mother isn’t as important as what your boyfriend does. From your description, their relationship is unhealthy. My advice is to encourage your boyfriend to discuss this with a licensed mental health professional. If he does, it may give him the incentive he needs to distance himself from her.

P.S. When the next family holidays come around, by all means invite him to spend them with your family. That way he will have a chance to see how a normal family functions.

Dear Abby: When my inlaws come for dinner, they ask what they can bring. I always say “absolutely nothing,” but they bring dessert or a bottle of wine, and then take the uneaten dessert or uncorked bottles of wine home with them. What’s the rule of etiquette when someone brings items to a party?

– Wondering in Florida

Dear Wondering: When guests bring something to their hostess – a bottle of wine or dessert – it is considered a gift. For guests to commandeer the leftovers without them having been offered is poor manners.

FRIDAY HOROSCOPE TODAY – Rely on your intelligence and insight.

There is money to be made if you refuse to let personal problems that are beyond your control stymie your professional progress. Keeping your two lives separate will ensure success in both areas. Productivity should be your focus.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Overly sensitive family members will be hard to deal with. Do whatever it takes to avoid confrontations.

Concentrate on finishing a creative project that you have been postponing.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Someone from your past will make a surprising contribution. This is not a good time to deal with government agencies or authority figures.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Negativity will be

your downfall. Don’t allow self-doubt or indecisiveness to keep you from taking an advanced position. With your intellect and insight, you will succeed in any venture you attempt.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Don’t let anyone take advantage of you. If you feel you are being pressured, stand up for your rights. A change of scenery will help to clear your mind and avoid a troublesome confrontation.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Share your happiness with the people you love. Plan a family gathering or hook up with friends for some entertainment. An intellectual or physical challenge will stimulate your senses.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Check out travel magazines and websites or visit a travel agent. The

stimulation and inspiration you are looking for can be found in an exotic or out-of-the-way destination.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Don’t allow your frustration to cause an emotional outburst.

Keep your opinions to yourself and think twice before you blurt out something you may regret.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Put extra effort into developing better connections with people you can relate to. If you engage in activities that attract caring people, you will be appreciated for your contributions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – You work hard for your money, but reckless spending or unnecessary extravagance will wreak havoc on your budget. Be wary of anyone looking for a

handout or donation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Organize a pleasure trip or outing with a close friend. Tension with family members will leave you feeling dissatisfied and uptight. The less time spent at home, the better.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – It’s time to put your financial, insurance and legal papers in order. Update contracts or agreements. An older individual will be able to provide some valuable advice.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Emotional pressure or personal issues will have you feeling pulled in two different directions. Take some time to pamper yourself. A day spent doing enjoyable activities will lessen your stress.

SATURDAY HOROSCOPE TODAY – Focus on your personal goals. You can’t be everything to everyone, and you will exhaust yourself if you try. Sign up for programs or seminars that will improve your qualifications. You can accomplish a lot if you don’t allow yourself to be distracted by personal issues.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Discussions with neighbors or friends will lead to a new opportunity. A review of your options will allow you to consider the positive effects of a new challenge or relocation.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Your passion and determination will attract important allies. Develop a game plan and stick with it. A sense of accomplishment will help you pursue more enjoyable activities.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Don’t try to interest others in your activities. Divulging too much information will result in a confrontation. Working independently will bring the highest returns and help you avoid interference.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – You can break away from the opposition if you emphasize your abilities and intelligence. Moneymaking options will develop if you put your best foot forward. Love and romance are looking hot.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Emotional issues will cloud your judgment. Make your career a priority and invest your time in becoming knowledgeable about pending business or financial deals and professional options.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Passion and romance are

on the rise. Spend some time with the person who means the most to you. If you are intrigued by a new acquaintance, let your feelings be known.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Take the initiative when it comes to your future. Update your resume and increase your visibility by participating in networking pursuits and enrolling in career-enhancing courses.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Size up your current professional situation. If there is no room to advance, consider your alternatives. A move will be invigorating and help you catapult to new financial levels.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Take time to do the things you enjoy. Reading, relaxing or catching up on personal correspondence will provide a welcome diversion from any pending concern or

discord.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Love is in the air. Make an honest assessment of your feelings.

Whether you have been with your partner forever or you are with someone new, make your intentions clear.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Get together with a financial adviser regarding your taxes or debt. A well-meaning friend or family member will not give you the best advice when it comes to increasing your income.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Someone who cares about you will feel left out. Be sensitive to the needs of others, and be reassuring and thoughtful in your response. Your gesture will improve your personal life.
