Lockport City Council OKs ticket charge ordinance By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com LOCKPORT – City Council members in Lockport unanimously approved issuing tickets to residents who leave unbundled branches or garbage cans in the streets. City officials wanted the measure in place for residents who do not put out branches for pick up by Waste Management’s policy and leave them in right-of-way areas. They also wanted the same for residents who leave garbage cans out in roads after their designated pick-up day or in prohibited areas. Residents would be given a three-day notice. After that they would be issued an administrative ticket and be given an extra 15 days to comply or pay $25 and also comply. Mayor Steven Streit proposed the idea of the city using equipment to help residents who have difficulty with handling branches and asked Joe Findlay, the city’s public works director, to find a way

on how this could work. He said the ordinance for the ticket is important for the city because it has many old trees and branches. Council members approved in a 4-3 vote to table an ordinance approving an intergovernmental agreement with Lemont to trade vehicles and equipment with its police department. Lockport Police Chief Terry Lemming said Lockport police learned Lemont Police Department was discontinuing their K-9 program. Lockport police applied for a grant for $12,500 from Citgo Lemont Refinery to start their own K-9 program. Lemming said the police department is asking to trade a 2013 Ford SUV squad car for Lemont Police Department’s 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe, which is their vehicle with K-9 equipment. Lemont police officials are asking for an additional $3,000 for the K-9 equipment they are providing, of which the Metropolitan Area Narcotics Squad has agreed to pay.

Fourth Ward Alderwoman Denise Marynowski asked for this ordinance to be discussed at the next committee of the whole meeting as she had many questions about it. “For some reason, Lemont discontinued their K-9 program,” she said. “I think we need to know why. Does the city the size of Lockport really need a K-9 program?” She said council members would need to know the costs and what the benefits of this program will be for the city. Council members unanimously approved of entering into a professional services agreement with Mississippi-based The Retail Coach to prepare a retail economic development plan for the city for up to $40,000, plus reimbursable costs. Lockport has three retail markets along the 159th Street corridor, I-355 interchange and the downtown area. City officials are seeking successful retail recruitment for these areas and are seeking ideas and plans from The Retail Coach.

Romeoville board OKs $92M budget By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com ROMEOVILLE – The village approved a $92 million budget Wednesday, down 20 percent from last year’s budget of $114 million. “There’s not much change in the property tax rate,” Noak said at the village board’s regular meeting. “Some residents will be paying a little less, some just a little more.” Noak said one of the most important points to note is that the village portion of the property tax rate has remained at a stable rate over the past six years, while raising the rate with inflation during that time would have cost the typical homeowner $59 more. Property tax revenue for the village rose less than 1 percent by $5,400. It constitutes 13 percent of the total property tax bill for residents.

The decrease in the budget is mostly due to a less money spent on capital construction projects, Mayor John Noak said. Last year’s budget include $18 million in bond proceeds. But this year there is no revenue from bonds. Capital construction costs fell by $20.9 million. Most other revenue and expenditure streams also decreased. Noak said the village will continue its fourth year of rebates on residents’ water bills. Residents can expect a rebate in October. Also approved at the meeting was the annexation of 32 acres of unincorporated Lockport Township to build commercial complex and industrial expansion of the Aryzta facility on Airport Drive. Residents who live on the block told the board they already have noise issues with

developers near their land, and had concerns about the destruction of the ecosystem of the property. They also had concerns about the landscaping of the property. An Aryzta representative said the company would make sure to sod the dirt being lifted onto the property, and would look into landscaping. The village approved an extension of parking in the Carillon Court commercial center. Village staff originally requested developers to add 20 more parking spaces. The restaurant-heavy center will add 23 parking spots. Trustee Joe Chavez said he has seen the traffic heavy on the weekends. The new parking spaces will be located on the north side of the center. Village officials said overflow parking can also be used south of the lot next to 135th street.

Warm-up could make streets worse BY BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com

Lockport Public Works employee Luke Gasper smooths out an asphalt patch Friday while filling potholes with co-worker Tim Boland on Read Street.

Lockport Public Works employees Tim Boland (left) and Luke Gasper (right) shovel asphalt from the back of a city truck as they fill potholes on Read Street on Friday. Findlay said. Minooka, on the other hand, survived the winter pretty well, according to Public Works Superintendent Rob Tonarelli. “It hasn’t been too bad. We’ve had a few potholes developing, but nothing urgent,” Tonarelli said. “Most of the streets are in pretty good shape.”

It’s been the same in Morris, at least on the city streets. “The city has been patching holes, but it hasn’t been as bad as it could have been,” Public Works Director Jim Gretencord said. “It’s been a little worse than normal.” Route 47, the main thoroughfare through town, is a different story. “We’re having to patch

through Morris once or twice a week,” said Bruce Hucker, District 3 operations engineer with the Illinois Department of Transportation, the government unit that maintains the route. “Most of the deterioration has been along the seams between the lanes,” Hucker said. “It’s rough for vehicles and motorcycles because when they are crossing lanes, they have to cross over it.” The worst may be yet to come, according to Bruce Gould, Will County’s director of transportation and county engineer. “We haven’t seen full effects of it yet because the frost is so deep,” Gould said last week. As the weather warms up, ground frost changes to water. Voids can form as water seeps out, creating the potential for portions of the roadway to collapse. And while Gould has no fear of any massive roadway loss, he said “it remains to be seen what the true effects of this winter be on area roads.”

Another problem with early spring roadwork is that it’s hard to keep the patch in the pothole. Cold patch, the loose granular asphalt mix that is tamped into potholes this time of year, is generally a temporary fix at best. It doesn’t adhere as well as hot asphalt, and moisture from melting snow or rain can cause it to slough out of the pothole. “Any bit of water and it can pop right out,” Eulitz said. “We’re having to patch the same potholes over and over again.” Hot mix asphalt, which provides a more permanent solution, usually isn’t applied until warmer months. The process requires warmer ground temperatures, plus most local asphalt plants won’t be producing until later this month. Lockport is looking at a new patching method called hot inplace recycling, in which the existing blacktop is heated and used to resurface itself, Findlay said.

April is the cruelest month. Especially when it comes to potholes. The car-jarring, tire-popping and alignment-wrecking craters are carving up roads and streets throughout the area, courtesy of this year’s brutal winter. Towns such as Joliet and Lockport have been particularly hard hit, as have some of the state routes maintained by the Illinois Department of Transportation In Joliet, Black Road has been ground zero for roadway ruin. “Black Road we’ve patched every single day,” said Mike Eulitz, roadways engineer for Joliet. “We’re back out there every chance we get.” The road has experienced both heaving – where entire road portions have been pushed up by the frost – and potholes – caused when water seeps into asphalt cracks, freezes and causes pavement to buckle and crack. Other problem areas in Joliet include Ingalls Avenue east of Route 30, Theodore Street and Eastern Avenue, Eulitz said. The season’s 33 sub-polar days helped push frost four feet into area streets and roads, Eulitz said, freezing both pavement and pipes. “It’s been a pretty bad winter for potholes,” Eulitz said. “And we’ve had a ton of water main breaks, so we’re going to be busy for a long while.” In Lockport, road deterioration has been nearly citywide, according to Public Works Director Joe Findlay. Areas particularly hard hit include 13th Street, Sixth Street, Kelvin Grove subdivision and the older north central section of town. “This winter has been so bad that we’re even seeing newly-paved streets failing,”

Progess has been messy Grand Blvd. residents grow tired of prolonged water line project By BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com JOLIET – This year’s harsh winter has turned into a spring of discontent along Grand Boulevard. Residents on one side of the diagonal street that runs from Wheeler to Raynor avenues in Joliet have had to contend with holes, trenches and miry yellow clay caused by the relocation of the neighborhood’s obsolete water service. At 911 Grand Blvd., a muddy trench was etched across Brian and Leanne Buchanan’s backyard where the ground settled after a new water line was installed late last year. Work crews covered the trench with plywood, which is now mostly rotted following the snow melt. Brian already has fallen into the excavation once, while filling the bird feeder. The bigger problem has been the mud, which his Brittany spaniel, Mr. Snickers, tracks all over the house after being let out, and the couple’s vehicles track all over the concrete after crossing their muddy driveway apron. “On wet days I have to stand out here with a leash,” Brian Buchanan said. “On some days my wife has had to bathe him twice.” Next door at 913 Grand Blvd., Em Ostrem’s main concern is a hole, nearly a foot deep, that’s opened up on the parkway near her home. “It was filled up, but with all the freezing and thawing, the hole has opened up again,” Ostrem said. Ostrem also has a two-foot mound of dirt cutting through her backyard. “You can’t go out there without getting muddy,” Ostrem said. “It’s all yellow clay, so it sticks. I wouldn’t dream of going out there with decent

She brought the situation before the City Council after calls to the water department and a subcontractor failed to fix the problem. On Wednesday, work crews from Brandt Builders Inc. of Morris filled holes at both properties while working their way up the street.

“There’s not a whole lot you can do after you have a winter like this,” Vice President Chad Brandt said. “Normally you get a couple days over the winter to tidy up, but not this year.” Brandt said his crews planned to finish landscaping sometime between April 14 and 21, barring weather problems. “A lot of people don’t realize the ground is still saturated,” Brandt said. “If we don’t wait until the frost comes out, we’ll end up doing a lot more damage.” Work on the Haldeman Terrace subdivision – about 170 properties bounded by Wheeler and Raynor avenues and Mari-

on and Morgan streets – began last fall, according to Public Utilities Director Jim Eggen. “The contractor worked right up until the time the snow fell,” Eggen said. “We usually get more time but were shut down by the early winter.” The work centered on moving the subdivision’s 105-yearold water main from a backyard easement to the front, and replacing service lines into each home, Eggen said. The water line was undersized, no longer met EPA standards and had failed several times, he said. Garages and other structures built atop the line restricted access. Most water lines in Joliet

run under the street. Along Grand Boulevard, which has a wide parkway on one side of the street, the city opted to put the line into the parkway, Eggen said. The project resulted in excavations in the parkway for the new main, as well as front, side and backyards for the new service, Eggen said. In some cases the contractor was able to bore the service lines to avoid excavation, he noted. But moving the water lines is only part of the project. Work on relining or replacing the subdivision’s antiquated sanitary sewer will begin later this year and continue on into 2015, Eggen said.

Attorney remembered for aid Robert Krockey formed law firm, president of legal assistance program By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Robert Krockey won a lot of arguments in his lifetime, but his colleagues reject the one he made consistently. “There were so many occasions over the years that I would thank him for myself, my friends, people who needed his help and every time I did he’d say, ‘I didn’t do anything,’ ” Judge Jeff Allen said Wednesday. “But Bob did do something. He did a lot.”

Krockey, a local attorney for 47 years, died of cancer Saturday at the age of 73. He was a senior partner in the law firm of Krockey, Cernugel, Cowgill and Clark and served many years as president of the Will County Legal Assistance Pro- Robert gram. Krockey “The word Joliet ‘counselor’ describes Bob perfectly,” Judge Roger Rick-

mon said. “He viewed law as a profession, not a business, and gave hours of his time to mentor young lawyers.” Krockey also was a certified public accountant and would answer estate questions for any attorney who called him to save time and expense. “He was a bit irascible, but once you got past the gruff exterior, he had a heart of gold,” Rickmon said. The legal assistance program provides lawyers for the poor in cases where they

are not guaranteed representation. Allen said Krockey viewed that as a way for attorneys to give back to the community directly. “He did a lot of pro bono work so the law was accessible to everyone,” Allen said. Allen and Rickmon both called Krockey a “highly-skilled” lawyer. Rickmon noted Krockey was as competitive on the tennis court as he was in the courtroom. Krockey also was president of the Will County Sheltered Workshop and United Cere-

bral Palsy and vice president of the Joliet Jewish Congregation. In recent years, Krockey enjoyed playing golf and clarinet with several community bands. “He wasn’t afraid of trying new things and embracing them as he got older,” Allen said. Krockey is survived by his wife, Judith, three children and four grandchildren. Funeral services are scheduled for Thursday at the Joliet Jewish Congregation.

School. The program provides tuition assistance during undergraduate studies at 52 Illinois universities. The Golden Apple Scholars of Illinois program was formed in 1989. The program prepares students to teach in challenging school environments “where more resilient teachers are desperately needed,” according to the news release. “We applaud these young people for making the selfless choice to inspire and lead future generations of students through a career in education,” Dominic Belmonte, president and chief executive of Golden Apple, said in the written statement. The program has been proven to improve graduation rates among participants, most of whom are the first in their family to attend college or come from low-income households. At the same time, more than 80 percent of participants successfully graduate from college each year while half end up earning more in their first year of teaching than their total household income at the time they applied to college.

Plans to install machines at three golf courses By BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com

Glen Marcum Joliet Park District Board president “There’s so many, many golf courses in the area, everyone is cutting one another’s throat,” Marcum said. The contract would allow the district to discontinue gaming in the future, though it could not change video gaming vendors for the original five-year duration. In recommending Donico, Director Dominic Egizio said the company has managed jukeboxes and children’s video game machines at district facilities for the past three or four years. Payout percentages on the machines are dictated by the state and are identical for all vendors, so that relationship was the key factor in choosing Donico, he said. Inwood’s machines like-

ly would be up and running within four weeks, Egizio said. The district applied for the Inwood license in December. Applications for Woodruff and Wedgewood went out later. Egizio said the district doesn’t know when the state will make a decision on those two licenses. The district plans to have the machines shut off during high school golf meets, Marcum said. Since the golf courses are seasonal, the machines won’t necessarily run throughout the year. The board’s action follows a March 25 decision by the Hoffman Estates Park District to allow a “one-year trial” of video gaming in the restaurant of its Bridges of Poplar Creek Country Club. The Elk Grove Park District and the Foss Park District, in northern Chicago, have machines up and running. The only state requirements for the machines are a liquor license and a clean background check.

Joliet museum gets $15,000 donation for band exhibit THE HERALD NEWS JOLIET – The Joliet Area Historical Museum has received a $15,000 grant from Caesars Foundation to be used toward the construction of its newest permanent exhibit, “Strike Up the Band!” Caesars Foundation is affiliated with Caesars Entertainment, the company that owns Harrah’s Joliet Casino and Hotel. “Strike Up the Band!” will

feature an interactive band exhibit, as well as state-of-the-art, station-based companion programming where visitors and students learn about the history of the Joliet Township High School Band and its impact on the nationwide school band program movement. In August, the American Association for State and Local History awarded the museum’s temporary exhibit of “Strike Up The Band! 100 Years of the Joliet Township High School

Bands” its award of merit in recognition for achievement in interpretation and preservation of state and local history. Harrah’s Joliet Senior Vice President Darren VanDover and Director of Human Resources Scott Jones presented the museum with the grant check at the Route 66 Visitors Center. The museum will acknowledge Caesars Foundation with a permanent wall plaque at the entry of the exhibit.

JOLIET – Video gaming will be coming to Inwood Golf Course. The Joliet Park District Board at a special session Wednesday morning unanimously approved a five-year contract with Donico LLC to manage a pair of video gaming machines at the Inwood clubhouse. “I think this is going to help out our park district and our golf courses,” Commissioner Art Schultz Jr. said. The board also passed a motion to allow Donico to manage machines at the district’s Woodruff and Wedgewood golf courses, pending state approval of video gaming license applications for the two facilities. “We’ve been talking for years about how to make the golf courses more profitable,” said Board President Glen Marcum, noting that stiff competition has made the district’s three courses marginally profitable at best.

“There’s so many, many golf courses in the area, everyone is cutting one another’s throat.”

Channahon ranks 16th on safe city list jbourque@shawmedia.com CHANNAHON – Channahon is one of the safest cities in Illinois, according to a study by home security company SafeWise. SafeWise analyzed FBI crime data from 2012 to find the 50 safest cities in Illinois. Channahon ranked 16th among the 514 Illinois cities evaluated. Other local towns ranked on the list were: Homer Glen, 21; Manhattan, 28; and Frankfort, 41. The number one spot went to the Round Lake Park in Lake County. “It feels great,” Channahon Police Chief Jeff Wold said of the village’s ranking. “I’m very proud of our community and community members who have taken the time and effort to make their homes and businesses safe.” For every city with a population greater than 5,000 people, SafeWise looked at the number of violent crimes – including aggravated assault, forcible rape, murder and robbery – and property crimes, including arson, burglary, larceny theft and vehicle theft. SafeWise calculated the chance of violent and property crimes happening per 1,000 population to level the playing field for cities varying in size.

“It was surprising to see the number of Illinois communities with little or no violent crime,” SafeWise security analyst Rebecca Edwards said in a news release. “In this day and age, it is so reassuring to know that caring, proactive communities can make such an impact when it comes to protecting their homes and communities.” Channahon was one such city with nearly zero violent crimes per 1,000 residents. In 2012, the city reported only two violent crimes and 88 property crimes for the entire year. Wold said the police department has made efforts to educate residents on safety and security measures, which has helped the city’s crime rate. “More of our businesses are using alarms, camera systems and security lighting,” Wold said. He said the department conducts safety reviews of local businesses to ensure they are using the most effective building security. Channahon police also formed a citizens police academy to equip residents with knowledge needed to make the city safer. “The academy has since formed a citizens academy alumni group that’s very involved with community safety,” Wold said.

Minooka Mayor Pat Brennan gave the state of the village address to a full house at Chapin’s East on Wednesday. said. On Minooka Road a new building is under construction for Metal Stamp. Further down is the 850,000-squarefoot Trader Joe’s warehouse. A 100,000-square-foot facility owned by NFI Airgas will be built near Trader Joe’s.

“This new investment, new construction and new employment opportunities in all represent about $100 million of new investment into Minooka and almost 700 new jobs in our community,” Brennan said. Minooka is working with Morris, Channahon and

Grundy County on developing the industrial area surrounding Brisbin Road. A hotel is slated to be built on Ridge Road at the corner of Bob Blair, Brennan said. Additionally, Grainger is contemplating expansion of its industrial supply facility, and Electrolux has filled the remaining space in one of the warehouses on MidPoint Road. Several new businesses have opened in the last year, including Dock Rotz bar and grill, Java Jill’s, Joliet Staffing, Elegant Escapes Salon & Day Spa and H&R Block. At the same time, the grain elevator that sits in the center of downtown is in continual use as Minooka remains a farming town, Brennan said. “We are a friendly Midwest small town with solid businesses, restaurant choices, a selection of places to worship, great schools, library, medical professionals and a variety of service businesses that cause many to find what they are looking for right in their own hometown,” Brennan said.

Bill to lower small business start-up fee moves to Illinois House By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com A measure that would make the state filing fee for start-up businesses the lowest in the country passed unanimously out of the Illinois Senate this week. The measure, co-sponsored by state Sen. Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant, D-Plainfield, would decrease the filing fee to establish a limited liability company from $500 to $39. With bipartisan support and Gov. Pat Quinn’s backing, the measure now has a good chance of passage in the Illinois House, Bertino-Tarrant said. Republican lawmakers attempted to pass similar legislation last year but it never got out of committee. John Greuling, president and CEO of Will County Center for Economic Development, said while he supports

any bill that promotes business growth, this standalone reduction won’t be the game-changer needed to spur more start-ups. “Most business people looking at forming a business or becoming an LLC are going to look at those things pretty much as just the cost of doing business,” he said. “Will it make a big difference in terms of creating or forming more LLCs? I just can’t see it. I don’t think so. ... It’s just not one of those things that makes a difference.” Lowering the overall cost of doing business in Illinois would help more, Greuling said, suggesting that state and local governments must take a more holistic approach by lowering the corporate income tax and other fees. Bertino-Tarrant said Wednesday the bill will help Illinois compete with neighboring states. Illinois’ start-up fee

The state would stand to lose an estimated $16 million in revenue if the filing fees were reduced to $39, he said, noting that the estimate does not take into account the possibility that more small business startups will take advantage of the lower fee.

MINOOKA – The population of Minooka is expected to be six times what it is now in 40 years, Mayor Pat Brennan said during his annual State of the Village address. Projections forecast that the population of Minooka will grow from 11,000 today to 70,000. That was just one of the highlights of Brennan’s fifth annual State of the Village speech to a full house Wednesday at Chapin’s East. Brennan took local officials and residents on a “tour” of Minooka, describing areas of growth that included business, industry, neighborhoods and parks. Starting at the Village Hall on McEvilly Road, Brennan talked about the newest renovations to the building the village has purchased, which will allow for more office space and a larger community room that may be ready for the holiday program at the

end of the year. “Rather than build new, we are staying conservative and expanding our current building that we will call home for the next 30 to 40 years,” he said. Brennan highlighted the classes and events organized by the village as well as the parks and open space available to residents. “Minooka does not have a park district, but we have an active community with events geared toward families,” he said. The McEvilly Road bike path, which will eventually connect Lions Park to the south side of the DuPage River and meet the existing path in Channahon, is now in the second phase of engineering design and land acquisition. A roadway and bike trail at U.S. Route 6 and Waters Edge Drive was completed. Over the past year, street paving projects have totaled $390,000 and sidewalk repairs and replacements of nearly $28,000 were done, Brennan

Joliet man convicted in second sexual abuse trial By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A jury delivered a split verdict in Leon Franklin’s second trial on aggravated criminal sexual abuse. Franklin, 41, who was found guilty on two counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse five years ago was only convicted of one count Wednesday during a retrial ordered by the appellate court. The verdict will not make much difference for Franklin, who already was scheduled to be released from prison next month. He will still have to register as a sex offender. The jury of eight men and four women did not feel there was enough evidence to convict Franklin of having sex with a then-16-year-old girl in December 2007, but there was for another encounter in February 2008. The appellate court or-

dered a new trial after deciding Judge Robert Livas improperly defined “reasonable doubt” to the jury the first time. Franklin testified in his own defense during the trial Wednesday. Franklin denied having any sexual contact with the then-16-year-old girl in 2007 and 2008. On Feb. 23, 2008, Franklin, a friend of the victim’s family, went over to their Joliet residence with plans to take the younger children to Chuck E. Cheese, while the two adult women living there ran other errands. The victim, a high school sophomore, was going along with the younger children as an additional chaperone. “I went into the bedroom to use the phone, while [the victim] was cleaning in the kitchen,” Franklin said. “The only time she came in the bedroom was to let me know

Lockport man arrested on child porn charge By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com LOCKPORT TOWNSHIP – Police say a 55-year-old man was downloading and distributing child pornography before his arrest Friday. “We seized computers that had lewd images of children under the age of 13,” Will County Sheriff’s Deputy Chief Ken Kaupas said. Larry A. Marcotte became the subject of an investigation in mid-January that was conducted by sheriff’s police and

the state’s attorney’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, Kaupas said. Detectives obtained a search warrant for Marcotte’s residence in the 200 block of Cameron Avenue that was executed Friday. He was arrested on a charge of possession of child pornography and is being held in the county jail on $750,000 bond. Kaupas said additional charges could be filed after Marcotte’s computers are examined by forensic investigators.

they were back [after] 35-45 minutes.” Other witnesses said the women were gone for over two hours and returned home to see the victim coming out of the bedroom and Franklin pulling up his pants near a disheveled bed. One of the women used a

baseball bat to chase Franklin from the apartment. “You testified they knew you’d gone into the bedroom before they left, but were upset to find you there when they returned?” Assistant Will County State’s Attorney Derek Ewanic asked Franklin on Wednesday. Franklin

answered he knew the women were upset but did not know why. Franklin also denied taking off his jeans, sweatpants or boxer shorts while in the bedroom. “I always wear two pairs of pants in the winter,” he said.

cy to determine if sanctions against the firearms instructor are appropriate. Barred instructors are now listed on the Illinois State Police website. For applicants who are denied permits, the $150 reapplication fee will be waived. Applicants can appeal their denials. Under the state’s first concealed-carry law, applicants are required to undergo 16 hours of training – the most in the nation, although an exception is made for gun owners with previous training approved by the state. The Bolingbrook instructor’s class did not meet state criteria because it included an online component rather than the required 16 hours of in-person training, police spokesperson Monique Bond said. State police have received several complaints that some instructors are giving out permits to students who didn’t train the required 16 hours. State police have urged all applicants to review rules and requirements for training, ask questions and demand credentials before enrolling in classes.

BOLINGBROOK – More than 300 concealed-carry applicants trained by a Bolingbrook instructor will have their permits denied. Illinois State Police said the firearms instructor’s license was revoked because the training class did not meet state requirements. As a result, 327 individuals will have permits denied. Including the denials associated with the Bolingbrook instructor, 425 applicants have been denied permits so far. State police did not name the instructor. As of April, 13 of the 2,700 certified firearms instructors statewide have had their teaching licenses revoked, according to the state police website. In the Bolingbrook instructor’s case, state police investigators are in the process of providing their findings to the Will County State’s Attorney’s Office. Once the state’s attorney’s office has reviewed those findings, prosecutors will work with the state agen-

Plumbing work sparks fire BY BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com CREST HILL – Plumbing work in a vacant apartment started a fire Wednesday that made two units uninhabitable. Plainfield Deputy Fire Chief Jon Stratton said it was 3:26 p.m. when the blaze was reported from the second floor of a unit in the 2300 block of Carnation Drive. “They were soldering pipe and that got into the wall and up to the attic,” Stratton said.

The workers were able to get out and Plainfield and Lockport Township firefighters contained the damage to the one four-unit building. “It’s been vacant for a while and they were just rehabbing it,” said Kenya Shoemaker, whose bathroom is adjacent to the vacant unit and was destroyed. “This isn’t good.” Stratton said Shoemaker would have to find other lodging Wednesday night. A building inspector was scheduled to come Thursday.

STATE&NATION

By MARK SHERMAN The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court’s conservative majority voted Wednesday to free wealthy donors to give to as many political candidates and campaigns as they want, further loosening the reins on giving by big contributors as the 2014 campaign moves into high gear. It was a fresh declaration by the 5-4 majority that many limits on big-money contributions violate the givers’ constitutional free-speech rights, continuing a steady erosion of the restrictions under Chief Justice John Roberts. The biggest of those rulings was the 2010 decision in the Citizens United case that lifted restrictions on independent spending by corporations and labor unions. Wednesday’s ruling voided the overall federal limit on individuals’ contributions – $123,200 in 2013 and 2014 – and may have more symbolic than substantive importance in a world in which millions

Cornell Woolridge of Windsor Mill, Md., takes part in a demonstration Oct. 8 outside the Supreme Court in Washington as the court heard arguments on campaign finance. in unlimited donations from liberal and conservative spenders already are playing a major role in campaigns. The ruling will allow the wealthiest contributors to pour millions of dollars into candidate and party coffers, although those contributions will be subject to disclosure under federal law, unlike much of the big money that independent groups spend on attack ads. The early beneficiaries

could be the political parties, which have lost influence amid the rise of independent spending, and challengers who may have been cut off from getting money from wealthy contributors who previously hit the cap that the court invalidated Wednesday. Roberts said the aggregate limits do not act to prevent corruption or the appearance of corruption, the rationales the court has upheld as justi-

fying contribution limits. The overall limits “intrude without justification on a citizen’s ability to exercise ‘the most fundamental First Amendment activities,’ ” Roberts said, quoting from the court’s seminal 1976 campaign finance ruling in Buckley v. Valeo. By contrast, Roberts said the individual or “base limits remain the primary means of regulating campaign contributions.” The justices left in place limits on individual contributions to each candidate for president or Congress, now $2,600 for a primary and another $2,600 for the general election. Justice Clarence Thomas supported the outcome, but said he would have wiped away all contribution limits as violating the First Amendment. Justice Stephen Breyer, writing for the liberal dissenters, said that the court’s conservatives had “eviscerated our nation’s campaign finance laws” through Wednesday’s ruling and the earlier Citizens United case.

Proposed bill would change school funding By KERRY LESTER The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – A group of Democratic lawmakers Wednesday introduced a long-awaited piece of legislation that would dramatically change the way schools are funded in Illinois for the first time since 1997. The sponsors called the measure the most comprehensive way to ensure equity across the state in both good and bad budget years but indicated there’s still work to do in gaining broad support in both chambers on the regionally divisive issue. “This is a dramatic and appropriate departure from the status quo,” state Sen.

Andy Manar, chief sponsor of the legislation said, calling the current formula “complex and unpredictable and complicated.” The legislation would streamline the state’s school funding formula to require districts to demonstrate need before receiving money, a significant shift from the current method that factors in a district’s poverty for some types of state aid but not others. Under the plan, 92 percent of total state education funding would be distributed by factoring in districts’ poverty levels. Only specialized programs for special education and early childhood education would

be exempted from the formula. And, for the first time in decades, funding for Chicago Public Schools would be treated under the same formula as the rest of the state. As it stands now, Illinois schools get state money in a variety of ways. General state aid, the money used to offset the basic cost of educating students, is based on a formula that factors in poverty levels. This year, less than 45 percent of the $6.7 billion the state spent on preschool through 12th-grade education was on general state aid. Districts also get grants to use on programs such as special education, transportation and vocational training, which don’t factor in pov-

erty. Districts must submit expense claims for those programs and are reimbursed based on the number of students they serve. The exception is Chicago, which receives a percentage of all state education dollars to spend at its own discretion. As a result, critics charge, it has received hundreds of millions more than if it were held to the same standard as other districts. The state’s school funding formula hasn’t changed since the late 1990s. But over time, increases to spending on specialized programs have outpaced increases to general state aid, resulting in the poorest districts often hurting the most.

Lawmakers accuse GM of possible cover-up WASHINGTON – Lawmakers on Capitol Hill accused General Motors of a potentially criminal cover-up of its defective ignition switches and fumed at the lack of answers from its new CEO during a second day of hearings Wednesday into why GM waited a decade to recall cars with the deadly flaw. Members of a Senate subcommittee also said GM should tell owners of the 2.6 million cars being recalled to stop driving them until they are repaired. But CEO Mary Barra gave assurances that the cars, mainly Chevrolet Cobalts and Saturn Ions, are safe to use while owners wait for the replacement part, saying she would let her own son get behind the wheel if he took certain precautions. GM has linked the switch to 13 deaths and dozens of accidents. Others, including relatives of some victims, have a higher count of fatalities. The automaker has said the ignition switch can move from the “run” position to the “accessory” position because of weight on the key chain. That causes the engine to shut off, disabling power steering, power brakes and the front air bags.

Electronic cigarette bill advances to state Senate SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois House approved legislation that would require stores to keep electronic cigarettes behind the counter. The measure passed 113-0 on Tuesday and now heads to the Illinois Senate. The Springfield State Journal-Register reported that the bill requires retailers to keep e-cigarettes and other alternative tobacco products in age-restricted sections, a sealed display case or behind store counters.

Gunman kills 3, wounds 16 at Fort Hood base By PAUL J. WEBER and WILL WEISSERT The Associated Press FORT HOOD, Texas – A soldier opened fire Wednesday on fellow service members at the Fort Hood military base, killing three people and wounding 16 before committing suicide at the same post where more than a dozen people were slain in a 2009 attack, authorities said. The shooter, who served in Iraq in 2011, had been undergoing an assessment to determine whether he had post-traumatic stress disorder, according to Lt. Gen. Mark A. Milley, the senior officer on the base. There was no indication the attack was related to terrorism, Milley said. A Texas congressman said the shooting happened at a medical center. Rep. Michael McCaul, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, also identified the suspect as Ivan Lopez. But additional details about the gunman were not immediately available. The injured were taken to Darnall Army Community Hospital at Fort Hood and other local hospitals. Dr. Glen Couchman, chief medical officer at Scott and White Hospital in Temple, said the first four people admitted there had gunshots to chest, abdomen, neck and extremities and that their conditions range from stable to “quite critical.” The 2009 assault on Fort Hood was the deadliest attack on a domestic military installation in U.S. history. Thirteen people were killed and more than 30 wounded. After the shooting began, the Army’s official Twitter feed said the post had been locked down. Hours later, all-clear sirens sounded. On Wednesday evening, a

fatigue-clad soldier and a military police officer stood about a quarter-mile from the main gate waving away traffic. Other lanes were blocked by a police car and van. Meanwhile, relatives of soldiers waited for news about their loved ones. Tayra DeHart, 33, said she had last heard from her husband, a soldier at the post, that he was safe, but that was hours earlier. “The last two hours have been the most nerve-racking I’ve ever felt. I know God is here protecting me and all the soldiers, but I have my phone in my hand just hoping it will ring and it will be my husband,” DeHart said. Brooke Conover, whose husband was on base at the time of the shooting, said she found out about it while checking Facebook. She said she called her husband, Staff Sgt. Sean Conover, immediately to make sure he was OK, but he could not even tell her exactly what was going on, only that the base was locked down. “I’m still hearing conflicting stories about what happened and where the shooting was exactly,” Conover said in a telephone interview, explaining that she still did not know how close the incident was to her husband. “I just want him to come home,” said Conover, who moved to Fort Hood with her husband and three daughters two years ago. President Barack Obama vowed that investigators would get to the bottom of the shooting. In a hastily arranged statement in Chicago, Obama said he was following the situation closely. He said the shooting brought back painful memories of the 2009 attack. Obama reflected on the sac-

Friday’s Fish Fry Dinner

rifices that troops stationed at Fort Hood have made – including enduring multiple tours to Iraq and Afghanistan. “They serve with valor. They serve with distinction, and when they’re at their home base, they need to feel safe,” Obama said. “We don’t yet know what happened tonight, but obviously that sense of safety has been broken once again.” The president spoke without notes or prepared remarks in the same room of a steakhouse where he had just met with about 25 donors at a previously scheduled fundraiser for the Democratic National Committee. White House officials quickly pushed tables to

the side of the room to make room for Obama to speak to the nation. The November 2009 attack happened inside a crowded building where soldiers were waiting to get vaccines and routine paperwork after recently returning from deployments or preparing to go to Afghanistan and Iraq. Army psychiatrist Nidal Hasan was convicted and sentenced to death last year in that mass shooting. He said he acted to protect Islamic insurgents abroad from American aggression. According to testimony during Hasan’s trial last August, Hasan walked inside carrying two weapons and several

loaded magazines, shouted “Allahu Akbar!” – Arabic for “God is great!” – and opened fire with a handgun. Witnesses said he targeted soldiers as he walked through the building, leaving pools of blood, spent casings and dying soldiers on the floor. Photos of the scene were shown to the 13 officers on the military jury. The rampage ended when Hasan was shot in the back by Fort Hood police officers outside the building. He was paralyzed from the waist down and is now on death row at the military prison at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas. After that shooting, the military tightened security at bases nationwide.

The search for the plane began over the Gulf of Thailand and South China Sea, where the plane’s last communications were, and then shifted west to the Strait of Malacca, where it was last spotted by military radar. Experts then analyzed hourly satellite “handshakes” between the plane and a satellite and now believe it crashed somewhere in the southern Indian Ocean. A search there began just over two weeks ago, and now involves at least nine ships and nine planes.

U.S. asks Europe to wean off Russian gas By LORI HINNANT and RAF CASERT The Associated Press BRUSSELS – The United States on Wednesday called on Europe to wean itself from a dangerous dependency on Russian gas, saying it was time to stand together and bring an end to the Kremlin’s use of energy supplies as political leverage. Left unsaid was the European Union’s reluctance to follow the United States headlong into shale gas extraction, which has transformed the global energy scene and

turned the U.S. from importer into a nascent exporter or its refusal to fully re-embrace nuclear power in the wake of the Fukushima disaster in Japan. And even if it tried to become independent, it would take Europe years to develop promising sources, such as shale deposits in Ukraine and Poland – and with no guarantees of success. Europe’s reliance on Russia for a third of its energy needs has left the Kremlin in a position of power, emboldening it as it swept in to annex the Crimean Peninsula from Ukraine last month, with lit-

tle more than diplomatic protest and a few sanctions in return. In his first interview since fleeing to Russia, Ukraine’s ousted president, Viktor Yanukovych, said Wednesday that he was “wrong” to invite Russian troops into Crimea and vowed to try to persuade Russia to return the coveted Black Sea peninsula. Yanukovych told The Associated Press and Russia’s state NTV television that he still hopes to negotiate with Russian President Vladimir Putin to get the annexed region back.

Fishing boats washed ashore by a small tsunami, sit in Caleta Riquelme, adjacent to the port, in the northern town of Iquique, Chile, after magnitude 8.2 earthqauke struck the northen coast of Chile on Wednesday.

Chile’s M8.2 quake causes little damage By LUIS ANDRES HENAO and LUIS HIDALGO The Associated Press IQUIQUE, Chile – Hardwon expertise and a big dose of luck helped Chile escape its latest magnitude-8.2 earthquake with surprisingly little damage and death. The country that suffers some of the world’s most powerful quakes has strict building codes, mandatory evacuations and emergency preparedness that sets a global example. But Chileans weren’t satisfied Wednesday, finding much room for improvement. And experts warn that a “seismic gap” has left northern Chile overdue for a far bigger quake. Authorities on Wednesday discovered just six reported deaths from the previous night’s quake. It’s possible that other people were killed in older structures made of adobe in remote communities that weren’t immediately accessible, but it’s still a very

low toll for such a powerful shift in the undersea fault that runs along the length of South America’s Pacific coast. “How much is it luck? How much is it science? How much is it preparedness? It is a combination of all of the above. I think what we just saw here is pure luck. Mostly, it is luck that the tsunami was not bigger and that it hit a fairly isolated area of Chile,” said Costas Synolakis, an engineer who directs the Tsunami Research Center at the University of Southern California. About 2,500 homes were damaged in Alto Hospicio, a poor neighborhood in the hills above Iquique, a city of nearly 200,000 people whose coastal residents joined a mandatory evacuation ahead of a tsunami that rose to only 8 feet. Iquique’s fishermen poked through the aftermath: sunken and damaged boats that could cost millions of dollars to repair and replace.

Egypt: Bombings outside of Cairo University bring escalation in campus wars By HAMZA HENDAWI and SARAH EL DEEB The Associated Press CAIRO – A series of three bombs went off Wednesday outside Cairo University, killing a police general and wounding seven people, introducing a new level of violence

to the almost daily battles at campuses fought by Egyptian police and students loyal to the ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi. Universities have emerged as the main center of the campaign of protests by Morsi’s supporters against the military-backed government

that replaced him, because a fierce crackdown the past nine months has made significant rallies by Islamists in the streets nearly impossible. The result has been increasingly deadly clashes between protesters and security forces in and around the walled campus.

Wednesday’s blasts targeted a post of riot police deployed outside Cairo University in case of protests, in apparent retaliation for police assaults. That would be a significant escalation and raises the likelihood of a fierce response by security forces that would further push a spiral of violence.

A new group that first appeared in January, Ajnad Misr, or “Egypt’s Soldiers,” claimed responsibility for the bombing. In a statement, it said it was waging a campaign of retribution and that the slain police general had been involved in killings of protesters.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia – A police investigation may never determine the reason why the Malaysia Airlines jetliner disappeared, and search planes scouring the Indian Ocean for any sign of its wreckage aren’t certain to find anything either, officials said Wednesday. The assessment by Malaysian and Australian officials underscored the lack of knowledge authorities have about what happened on Flight 370. It also points to a scenario that becomes more likely with every passing day – that the fate of the Boeing 777 and the 239 people on board might remain a mystery forever. The plane disappeared March 8 on a flight to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur after its

transponders, which make the plane visible to commercial radar, were shut off. Military radar picked up the jet just under an hour later, on the other side of the Malay Peninsula. Authorities say that until then its “movements were consistent with deliberate action by someone on the plane,” but have not ruled out anything, including mechanical error. Police are investigating the pilots and crew for any evidence suggesting they may have hijacked or sabotaged the plane. The backgrounds of the passengers, two-thirds of whom were Chinese, have been checked by local and international investigators and nothing suspicious has been found. “Investigations may go on and on and on. We have to clear every little thing,” Inspector General Khalid Abu

Make litter disappear On the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency’s website, visitors will find a cute children’s game called “Litter Hunt.” Youngsters are encouraged to search a drawing of a children’s playground for unwanted litter and click on the offending articles: magazine, can, shoe, soda bottle, paper bag, cereal box, six-pack ring, soda can, and candy wrapper. If all nine pieces of litter are located, the child earns a picture of an “Enviro Detective” badge. The litter actually is not so easy to spot. The cereal box blends in with a sandbox post. The six-pack ring hides among stones. The candy wrapper lies atop sidewalk bricks. The soda can looks like part of a swingset crossbar. The regular can rests among gazebo shingles. The magazine hangs upside-down on a gazebo panel. Over on the slide, the soda bottle rests upside-down along the ladder. In one tree, a bird flies over the paper bag. In the other, a squirrel perches near the discarded shoe. It takes concentration and a little luck to find the trash online. That certainly is not the case with real trash. This time of year, after the snow melts, we see a whole panorama’s worth of litter. It has accumulated in yards, parks, parking lots, pastures and fields, and along sidewalks and roadsides since the first snows of winter about four months ago. It is not pretty. It takes no skill whatsoever to spot it. But it certainly will take some effort to get rid of it. How about a real game of “Litter Hunt” where residents of Will and Grundy counties combine their daily walks with a hunt for trash? Simply carry a trash bag along, bend over and pick up some of the litter you see, take it home, and discard it. The exercise will do you good, and, hey, we’ll be happy to declare you a winner. That, coupled with sustained efforts by communities, clubs, organizations, and units of government – and a commitment by litterbugs to mend their ways – could make litter much more difficult to spot. We’d like the looks of that.

A nation’s survival isn’t ‘racisim’ It may surprise some Americans to learn that almost one-quarter of the people living in Switzerland are foreigners. Even so, just over 50 percent voted last month to cap immigration, which, unchecked, could leave indigenous Swiss a minority in 50 years. Newsweek’s headline over the story was typical: “Switzerland’s Sudden Fear of Immigrants.” Fear. Immigrants. The German publication Spiegel Online wrote also about “scaremongering.” The enlightened reader’s thought-bubble is now supposed to register the word “racism.” But was it really “fear of immigrants” – read: “racism” – that drove sufficient numbers of Swiss to the polls to check their own demographic extinction as a recognizable culture and nation-state? Or was it a almost anachronistic instinct to survive as a recognizable culture and nation-state? I see it as the instinct to survive

VIEWS Diana West – and applaud the Swiss for deciding to limit the influx of Europeans, Slavs, Muslims, Africans and others, whose demographic waves are otherwise sure to transform indigenous Swiss culture into a global multiculture. I also envy them for mustering this basic vital sign, this narrow-edged popular will to control their own borders. It is something that has all but flatlined in America, where capping immigration – let alone halting it to attempt some measure of assimilation and economic resuscitation – is not even a part of the political debate. Why isn’t it? In the U.S., the foreign-born population is now estimated to be around 13 percent, and it’s rising every year. This poses

truly existential problems, particularly since the concept of “melting” into American culture was junked long ago – along with “American” culture. Meanwhile, that overall percentage, a little more than one in 10, masks the greater density and impact of foreign-born populations in the states and cities where immigrants and illegal aliens congregate. Take California, a state where waves of mainly Mexican arrivals (legal and illegal) have turned the population 38 percent Hispanic/ Latino. In Los Angeles County, the figure jumps to 48 percent. The next largest ethnic group is non-Hispanic white: 27 percent – almost down to one in four. In 1960, not long before I was born in L.A., non-Hispanic whites were 82 percent of the county. What we are looking at is population replacement – and it has taken place well inside the span of one lifetime.

The rich could not complain because they would be paying the same rate as the poor. It would be simple to establish a system of tax this way. No deductions would be necessary as all persons would by paying the same tax rate. It is about time that those we have elected to office try the method of tax which has been used so successfully by the churches for centuries. For those below or not too far above the poverty line some system of funding benefits should be established to make life more bearable and, not exclude them from paying the tax.

Politicians refuse to enforce laws • WEST Continued from page 18 Such population replacement is underway everywhere non-assimilable blocs become entrenched – with or without “amnesty.” But We, the People, have never voted for it. It just happens, forced or enabled from above. It could be that a majority of us want to disappear in a global multiculture – or, in the case of states like California, into an enclave-pocked Mexican monoculture. But that’s not why we have borders and immigration laws. Tragically, we also have a political class and presidents who lawlessly refuse to enforce these laws, making a mockery of our borders, not to mention the democratic process. This makes a mockery of our nationhood, too. It looks like a means to an end – the end of that nationhood. Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., is one shining exception to this treacherous rule. In fact, just how exceptional Sessions is becomes clear upon reading his description in a recent report by The

Hill on Sessions’ sensational findings that the Obama administration, through executive orders and directives, has “already granted de facto amnesty to millions of illegal U.S. residents.” The Hill describes Sessions as “a vocal opponent of granting citizenship to illegal immigrants.” Once upon a time, opposition to conferring citizenship on people here illegally would have been wholly unremarkable and thus unremarked upon. No more. What happened? If we consider the typical reaction to the recent Swiss vote – denigration of a nation’s survival instinct as a primitive expression of fear and racism – we will recognize the mechanism of our own demise: silence and retreat in the face of endless recrimination and grievance-mongering. What a way to lose a country. I’ve written more on these events at my blog www.dianawest.net.

To the Editor: We the people believe that those we elect to office should be wise enough to pass laws that would give us all liberty and justice. We do not believe that any laws should be passed that do not protect those rights. The question has risen as to what laws should be passed concerning taxation to resolve our debts, both at the national and the state levels. Some are saying that we should tax the rich because they can afford to pay them. I believe if you look at the Christian Bible the wise men of old said that the Lord God wanted for all to tithe, whether rich or poor.

NEW LENOX – Lincoln-Way Central boys volleyball coach Brian Danielson is pleased to see how his young squad has performed so far this season. But the Knights coach also is happy to have a veteran like Adam Sargis around to provide senior leadership when it’s necessary. That was the case in Wednesday’s nonconference home match against Providence Catholic when the visitors forced a third set. Sargis rose to the occasion by supplying five of his match-high 19 kills during the final game to help Central claim a 25-18, 22-25, 25-16 victory over the Celtics. The two squads met last Saturday in the third-place match of the Marist Tournament, with the Knights prevailing in two sets. “It’s good to have an experienced senior who can take over a game,” Danielson said. “We try to have a very balanced offense, but when it’s not working, I’m glad that there’s someone that we can go to with a confident swing and jump serve. It’s good to have Adam on the team and to have him stepping up to that senior leadership position.” Sargis, one of four seniors for the Knights (7-1), also chipped in with five aces and four digs. His biggest collection of kills happened in the second set, when the Celtics (3-4) used a late run to set the table for a dramatic finish. But the Knights took control early in the final game and the Celtics could get no closer than four points back down the stretch. “I think that we can be even better than we were last year,” Sargis said. “This year we have more options. A lot of people have been stepping up and our passing has been really good and our blocking has improved from last year. To beat good teams we have to be able to step up and that’s what we did in the third game.” In the finale, Providence

But the Knights gradually started to pull away, thanks to two kills apiece from Sargis and Erik LeBeau (seven kills), as well as two blocks from Kyle Trost. In the opener, the Celtics closed to within 20-18 before the Knights rattled off the final five points, which featured a block from Connor Hipelius and an ace from Trost. Things were equally-tight in the middle game, which was tied at 21 following a block by Sargis. But a Dan Niemiec block between a net violation and a wide hit put the Celtics up and they closed things out on a kill by Tim Doughney (11 kills, eight digs).

Central’s Mike Kulinski handed out 28 assists and added four digs while Providence also received 25 assists and three blocks from Bryan Grill while Mike Daly chipped in with four blocks. Although Celtics coach Brett Krapil was pleased to see his squad put up a better battle than they did Saturday, he wasn’t happy with their play in the final set. “Something that we’ve been focusing on and will continue to focus on is our serve-receive,” Krapil said. “As we get a little more consistent with that we’ll be able to run a little quicker and better offense. After losing a tough first game, it was good to see they had that fight in them. But we need to learn that a match isn’t just one game.”

BASEBALL: MORRIS 3, MINOOKA 2

Morris’ timely hitting helps top Minooka

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Thursday, April 3, 2014

By T.G. SMITH tsmith@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Coming off a lackluster performance and loss at Plainfield Central on Tuesday afternoon, the Morris baseball team had a challenge put to it Wednesday before its game against rival Minooka. “Playing a rival is certainly incentive, but we need to get to the point where we need to bring that kind of intensity to the park every day,” Morris coach Todd Kein said. Morris got a complete-game effort from senior Nick Evola, while getting three runs off of three different Indians pitchers in a 3-2 nonconference victory. Wednesday’s game hit fans on both sides with sudden changes right from the get go. Minooka opened the game against Evola with three solidly struck hits from Neal Tyrell, Christian Sanchez and Tyler Desmarais, but Evola got out of the inning allowing just one run after inducing a double play grounder and then one more to conclude the frame. “It was a bit of a shaky first inning for [Evola], but I think offensively we helped him out, coming right back out in the bottom of the first and pushing across two. I think that helped his confidence a little bit,” Kein said. “I think he went back out there with a bit of a different approach, a little bit different attitude. After that, it was pretty smooth sailing for him.” “[Evola] did a really nice job in the first inning of getting out of there. We squared the ball up and hit it really hard, but he was able to get out of that jam with a double play. That was kind of a momentum killer,” Minooka coach Jeff Petrovic said. “For him to get out of that inning with us just scoring one run was a big boost for them, and I think that carried over into the first inning off of [Mitch] Vogrin.” Just like Minooka had done in the top half, Morris strung together three straight hits off the bats of

Morris senior outfielder Austin Conrod (right) is safe at third against Minooka during Wednesday’s first inning in Morris. The Redskins went on to score two runs in the inning. Austin Conrod, Trevor Lines and Tim Smyk, then scored the second run.

“[The Redskins] do a really nice job of putting the ball into play and were able to bat-

tle. They have a nice contact hitting team that puts the ball into play,” Petrovic said.

Vogrin, Miguel Ruiz and Mitch Malone pitched two innings each against Morris with Malone picking up the loss after allowing an unearned run in the sixth. Minooka had previously tied the game at 2 on a single by Kenny Walsh, an error and two ground outs. Morris scored the winner when Geno Persico reached on an error and with Ricky Pelnarsh courtesy running, he stole second. Kyle Hill then sacrificed leading up to the game-winning RBI single by Trevor Lines. “We got some timely hits. Obviously, Trevor’s is the one that sticks out that pushed across the go-ahead run,” Kein said. “That was a timely hit there, but we moved the baseball more consistently today, and we manufactured. It was a little bit of a different attitude and approach today. We made some tweaks and we got positive results.”

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Last week in The Dome at the Ballpark in Rosemont, Plainfield Central softball outlasted Joliet West, 10-9. On Wednesday afternoon in the great outdoors at Joliet West, where the temperature hovered around 40 degrees, the young Tigers exacted revenge. Freshman right-hander Kylie Robb pitched a complete-game five-hitter and freshmen Kristen Ames and Madi Mulder both had two hits and an RBI in West’s 7-3 nonconference victory. That marked the Tigers’ second win in as many days – they beat Minooka, 4-3, on Tuesday – after opening the season with a four-game losing streak. “It was a hard loss when we played them earlier,” said West senior catcher Julia Liceaga, who like Mulder had a double and single and also knocked in a run. “We came back and showed them we’re in it.” The Tigers scored once in the second inning on Mulder’s single, and twice in the third on Ames’ RBI sin-

gle and Robb’s squeeze-bunt single to lead, 3-1. Central (14) was chasing the rest of the way. “This was one of our better offensive games especially after we left something like 15 runners on base against Minooka,” West coach Heather Suca said. “We got ahead early. That was big. A lot of our runs have been when we’re coming from behind. “Kristen Ames has been getting some big hits and this was only the second game Madi [Mulder] has started for us.” Robb walked one and struck out two, all in the first inning. After that, she consistently had Central batters hitting the ball on the ground. “That was her best outing,” Suca said. “She and Joy [Treasure] both pitched the first time we played them, and to hold them to three runs, this is a huge improvement. They always have good hitters.” “Kylie [Robb] did a great job hitting spots,” Liceaga said. “She was on the corners the whole game. She and Joy [Treasure] complement each other real well.”

Timi Tooley singled home the third-inning run for Central. Michaela Schlattman’s second single drove home a run in the fifth, and the Wildcats’ final run was scored in the seventh when Schlattman reached on an error. “We have some work to do,” Central coach Anne Campbell said. “We made too many mistakes. We’re not getting it done right now, but it’s a long season. “We knew there were a couple of kids who graduated that would be tough to replace. It’s not just the physical part, it’s the leadership and everything about the game. You don’t replace a Kaleigh Nagle. But these kids will figure it out.” Central sophomore Maddy Janssen pitched the first 4 2⁄3 innings and allowed six runs on nine hits and six walks. Freshman Brooklyn Daly finished up and yielded a sixth-inning run on a wild pitch, West’s Alysia Rodriguez scoring her second run of the game on a head-first slide. “We have the two pitchers, and we’re going to need them both,” Campbell said. “Both have to get it done.”

Plainfield South hopes pitching depth will help

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Thursday, April 3, 2014

By ROB OESTERLE roesterle@shawmedia.com Baseball is an interesting game. Although a baseball team puts nine players in the field, the attention is always on the guy in the middle of the diamond. Pitching is one of the most important aspects to a team’s success. Without a solid pitching staff, most teams’ chances for success will be limited. Plainfield South’s baseball team looks to have that part of the game covered entering the 2014 season. The Cougars return four pitchers from last year’s team.

Seniors Trevor Henderson, Ryan McQueen and Enrique Perez, and junior Shane Ritter look to be the mainstays of the Plainfield South rotation. Rounding out the pitching staff will be senior Zach Hammaker, Matt Taller, Richard Pfister and Easton Frisby. “The pitching will be a strong point for this team,” Plainfield South coach Phil Bodine said. “We have a lot of guys with experience coming back, and our young guys have some potential.” As important as pitching is, it doesn’t do much if the team doesn’t field well or produce at the plate. That’s

Just the facts Key Returnees: Zach Hammaker, Sr. 1B/P; Marco Melgoza, Sr. 3B; Dan Enloe, Sr., CF; Shane Ritter, Jr., RF/P; Trevor Henderson, Sr., P/1B; Ryan McQueen, Sr., P; Enrique Perez, Sr., P.

There also are position

players returning for South, as first baseman Hammaker, third baseman Marco Melgoza, center fielder Dan Enloe and right fielder Ritter bring varsity experience to the table. Henderson can also play first base when he isn’t on the mound. The middle infield positions are up for grabs, with seniors Andrew Doran and Roman Stewart and junior Austin Male battling for the second base spot. Juniors Tyler Dickey and Matt Taller area competing to play shortstop. Left field looks to be a battle between senior Sam Muszynski, Stewart and ju-

nior Khamaree Burt. Meanwhile, junior Brendan Burgess and sophomore Gabriel Wair will compete for catching duties. Other players vying for spots will be Gage Offerman at third base, Julian Ornelas and Shane Gomez in the outfield and pitchers Sam Sauder and Trent Wolff. “We have plenty of untested position players,” Bodine said. “If we can have some timely hitting and make routine plays, we will have a solid season. These guys know how to play the game. It’s going to be a matter of executing in the right situations.”

Konerko delivers in pinch By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN dvanschouwen@suntimes.com CHICAGO – Paul Konerko has this new role of his down cold. The White Sox’s captain, who came back for one last season to be a designated hitter mainly against left-handed pitching and come off the bench when needed, came off the pine on a chilly Wednesday afternoon at U.S. Cellular Field and singled to start a two-run rally in the ninth inning. Two innings and a couple of mercury drops on the thermometer later, Leury Garcia scooted home from third base on a wild pitch to give the Sox a 7-6 victory and a 2-0 start to the season. When you’re 38 and you’ve been sitting around for more than three hours while temperatures drop from the upper to low 30s, well, that’s not exactly routine. “It felt OK,” said Konerko, who hit lefty Glen Perkins’ first pitch off the third-base bag and into left field. “I just wanted to be aggressive and not go up there free-swinging but try to make a decision on the pitch, but don’t be tentative, either.” Backup catcher Adrian Nieto made his major-league debut as a pinch runner and eventually scored, and Dayan Viciedo had a pinch single

White Sox’s Leury Garcia (28) celebrates with teammates after scoring the winning run in the 11th inning Wednesday against the Twins. and slid home with the tying run on Adam Eaton’s slappy grounder to third baseman Trevor Plouffe. In the 11th inning, Garcia led off with a bunt single – on an 0-2 pitch from Samuel Deduno of all things – advanced to second on a balk and to third on a wild pitch. After an intentional walk to Jose Abreu, Adam Dunn walked, but the high-and-away fourth ball glanced off catcher Kurt Suzuki’s glove for the game-ending wild pitch. “I’ve been working on that, and that was the perfect time to do it,” said Garcia, who was an unexpected starter because of Conor Gillaspie’s bout with the flu. “It was perfect.’’

At 2-0, so are the Sox, although this one was far from sparkling. The Twins basically handed it to them in the ninth, and the Sox made two errors and allowed seven walks. “It’s always good when you come from behind late,” Konerko said. “That’s the kind of stuff that can build some chemistry, and it’s a win, so that’s always good. But, yeah, you don’t want to have to go through that to win a game, but when you do wind up on the good end of it, it can kind of help get things going in the right direction. So take it for what is it is, go home, have a good dinner and come back ready to fight tomorrow.”

BULLS 105, HAWKS 92

Augustin leads Bulls past Hawks By PAUL NEWBERRY The Associated Press ATLANTA – D.J. Augustin scored 23 points and the Bulls held off slumping Atlanta for a 105-92 victory Wednesday night, bumping the Hawks out of the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference with two weeks left in the season. The Bulls took control with a 16-3 run in the second quarter and led the rest of the way, fending off the last of Atlanta’s runs when Jimmy Butler swished a 3-pointer with just

over a minute remaining. The Hawks lost for the 21st time in 28 games, this one dropping them slightly behind New York for the eighth playoff seed. The Knicks (3343) routed Brooklyn 110-81 to climb percentage points ahead of Atlanta (32-42). Cleveland is also in the mix, two games out after beating Orlando. Paul Millsap led the Hawks with 22 points. Atlanta hosts the Cavaliers on Friday night. The Hawks were up 42-38 with 9 minutes left in the sec-

ond quarter after Mike Muscala knocked down a couple of free throws. The Bulls took control from there, clamping down defensively and scoring 16 of the next 19 points. The Hawks missed 12 of 13 shots, forced to settle mostly for outside jumpers and botching a couple of easy ones when they did get inside. Augustin capped the spurt with a brilliant hesitation move, freezing the Atlanta defenders before bursting through a gap for an easy layup.

A LENTEN FAMILY TRADITION Frankfort area, three generation family performs in Plainield musical drama By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND

If you go

dunland@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Grace Schudt of Tinley Park likes “pretty songs” and watching actors recreate a story onstage. But that’s not why the 8-year-old participates in the chorus of the “Seven Last Words of Christ” theatrical performance, which she hopes the community will attend Saturday. It has more to do with why Grace “gave up” desserts for Lent. “It shows how Jesus died, so you know,” Grace said. “He did not have to die for us.” The show’s website, www. sevenlastwordsofchrist.com, calls the “Seven Last Words of Christ” a “unique blend of acting and music,” as a combination youth and adult choir provides the actors’ voices. “I think it will inspire others to try harder during Lent,” said Sarah Schudt, 10, of Tinley Park. Grace and Sarah’s father, Karl Schudt of Tinley Park, initiated this family tradition in 2008 when the troupe hired him to “help out” the tenor section. Schudt, musical since boyhood (trumpet lessons beginning at age 5, participation in church choirs and barbershop quartets), was impressed at how well the children sang and decided “this is a neat group” and inquired how Sarah could join. Soon afterward, Sarah and Grace became part of The Little Flowers Catholic Girls Club, (which stresses virtues) and its corresponding The Little Flowers Catholic Dance and Theatre Troupe, founded and directed by Catholic theatrical and musical artist Simonetta Pacek of Homer Glen. Recently, Sarah played Tiny Tim in the troupe’s “The Conversion of Scrooge.” Both girls have roles in Pacek’s

n What: “Seven Last Words of

Christ” theatrical performance n When: 7 p.m., Saturday n Where: St. Mary Immaculate Catholic Church, 15629 S. Route 59, Plainfield n Tickets: $15 (adults), $10 (seniors and ages 13 through college), $5 (children). Age 4 and younger are free.

Jean Schudt (left to right), her son Karl Schudt and his children, Sarah and Grace Schudt, all sing in the choir for the musical drama, “The Seven Last Words of Christ.” YouTube Catholic TV show, “Hope’s Café,” which premiered in 2013. In that series, Grace plays a younger version of Pacek in flashback scenes, as well as her “evil twin sister,” Grace said. Sarah enjoys bringing a part to life but the socializing with other Catholic girls, especially those who are homeschooled, as she and Grace are, is equally appealing, she said. Participating in that troupe provided more than arts training, Schudt discovered when he played the

devil several years ago in the troupe’s dramatization of the “King of the Golden City.” “Usually when you get a group of 20 to 30 teenage girls together, they have their little group fighting and sniping,” Schudt said. “These girls were just so nice and helpful to each other, it was wonderful to be around it. I wanted my girls to grow up like that.” Although Schudt’s mother, Jean Schudt of Frankfort, enjoyed the troupe’s ballet recitals, complete with modest, but stunning, costumes and beautiful music, she felt luke-

warm about attending a performance of “The Seven Last Words of Christ” and adding another obligation to a full schedule. So, Schudt invited his mother, who had sung in a cappella choruses in high school, to join the choir and, after careful consideration, Jean did. The more Jean rehearsed the challenging music, the more awed she became at the production’s professional, prayer-like quality. “Instead of giving something up for Lent, we’re creating something for Lent,” Jean

said. “It feels good, not like punishment.” In 2008, Pacek created a dramatic adaptation of the French composer Theodore Dubois’ oratorio “The Seven Last Words of Christ.” Through the years, according to the production’s website, Pacek has continued to offer the performance. In addition to troupe members, Pacek also utilizes the talents of professional musicians and vocalists, as well as community members. Schudt, who sang in “The Seven Last Words of Christ” in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2012, understands why people look forward to it, both as participants and patrons. “The music and acting make it more relatable, like movies and TV, which are very visual, rather than just reading, hearing about it in church or thinking about it,” Schudt said. “It’s a very good meditation for Lent.” If you go, prepare to cry. “The Seven Last Words of Christ” makes Sarah cry, especially the part when Mary mourns over the body of Jesus. “You can see the torment in her soul,” Sarah said. “Maybe she knew he was going to rise again and maybe she didn’t. All she knew was that he was her only son and he was dead.”

Atlanta archbishop apologizes for posh residence By RACHEL ZOLL and RAY HENRY The Associated Press ATLANTA – Archbishop Wilton Gregory seems to have gotten the pope’s message about modest living.

ogized for building a $2.2 million mansion as his residence. He bowed to criticism from local parishioners and said he’d consider selling the new home in Buckhead, Atlanta’s toniest neighborhood. In letters, emails and a meeting, local Catholics told Gregory the price tag was outlandish, especially in light of Francis’ frugality. The Tu-

dor-style mansion, stretching nearly 6,400 square feet, includes two dining rooms and a safe room. The archbishop said the new pope has “set the bar” for church leaders and others, and Gregory said he hadn’t looked at the project’s cost in terms of his own “integrity and pastoral credibility.” “I failed to consider the impact on the families through-

out the archdiocese who, though struggling to pay their mortgages, utilities, tuition and other bills, faithfully respond year after year to my pleas to assist with funding our ministries and services,” Gregory wrote late Monday on the website of the archdiocesan newspaper. It’s a challenge bishops will be facing more pointedly – and

publicly – in the age of Francis. In the Archdiocese of Newark, N.J., parishioners have recently criticized Archbishop John Myers, and withheld some donations, after they learned the archdiocese was spending at least $500,000 to expand his retirement home, adding an indoor therapy pool, fireplaces and an office library.

With only two, he is a dead duck

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Evan Daugherty, a screenwriter, said, “Those are the two best words in English, ‘bidding’ and ‘war’.” Well, he got it half right. During the bridge war, the bidding usually provides useful information for one side or the other – as in this deal. West leads the heart queen against four spades. How should South plan the play? After West opened one notrump, East was right to run, using a transfer. East’s hand rated to be worthless in one no-trump, but would provide two or three trump tricks in two hearts. South intervened with two spades. West raised to three hearts with four-card support. North was tempted to bid four spades, but he had no singleton, and knew that the usual approach after an opponent opens with a strong no-trump is to get into the auction, find a fit and get out of the auction. It is rare that a game is makable. So North settled for three spades. However, South, liking his hand, gave himself game. Always check the high-card points, especially when an opponent opened. Here, only 16 are missing, so West is marked with all of the key honors, making him a candidate for an endplay. South wins with his heart ace, cashes the spade ace (delighted to see East follow suit), takes the heart king, cashes dummy’s top clubs, and ruffs the club six in his hand. Then he leads a trump. West wins, but has no riposte. Either he opens up diamonds, giving declarer a trick with his king, or he leads a heart, allowing South to sluff one of dummy’s diamonds and ruff in his hand.

Readers weigh in on pros, cons of only childhood DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips

‘Microbiome’ may have a profound affect on health Dear Doctor K: Do the germs that live on or in us affect our health? Dear Reader: Trillions of germs live in and on us, all of our lives. They live on our skin, in our mouth, in our digestive tract and elsewhere. In yesterday’s column, I mentioned that amazing recent discoveries have greatly expanded our understanding of these germs and the effect they may have on our health. Only a few years ago we thought that most of the germs that live on or in us were not affecting our health in any way. We thought they were just along for the ride. In the past few years, though, new technologies for identifying the germs that live on or in us, and for determining their genes, have produced astonishing results. (A gene is a stretch of DNA that makes a particular protein. Proteins are the workhorses that cause each cell in the body to function correctly.) We’ve always assumed that it was our genes – the genes inside each of our cells – that define how we function in health and that produce many of our diseases. Many scientists have assumed

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff that once we understood all of our genes and how they worked, we would understand human health and disease. We humans have more than 20,000 different genes. Recently, we’ve learned that the bacteria that live on and in us have five to eight million genes. Do the math. The microbes on and in us have nearly 400 times more genes than we do! The genes of all those bacteria and other microbes are collectively called the “microbiome.” Genes of the microbiome make proteins that enter our bodies and affect our body chemistry. Here’s one example. We have different types of bacteria living in our gut. Many of them help us digest carbohydrates – to break them down into simple sugars. Those simple sugars enter our blood, and eventually travel to our cells to provide energy for them. Some types of bacteria are very efficient at digesting carbohydrates. They produce more

simple sugars. Other bacteria are less efficient. What might that mean? Well, if a person had relatively more of the efficient types of bacteria, they would produce more simple sugars – and therefore more calories. And that would mean a greater tendency to gain weight. To make a long story short, there is growing evidence that the types of bacteria in our gut may be contributing to the obesity epidemic. Research is also incriminating our gut bacteria in a remarkable spectrum of different diseases. These include Type 2 diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, colon cancer, heart disease, psoriasis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, asthma and even autism. This field of research is still in its infancy. We don’t know yet how much effect our microbiome has on our health. But a growing number of scientists think it could be profound.

Dr. Wallace: I’m 17, and I’m in the process of turning my life around. A year ago I was a total loser. I was deep into the drug scene and tried to take my own life, and I almost succeeded. I was rushed to a hospital, and when I recovered I was placed in a psychiatric ward. It was there that I learned to take responsibility for my life. I am now back in high school. I don’t get great grades, but I am learning how to study for the very first time, and I get C’s. I have never been a good athlete, but I want to start running so someday I can run in a marathon race. One of my counselors at the psychiatric ward assured me that a runner’s high is the ultimate high. Any help will be appreciated. Do I need to see a doctor first? – Nameless, Kansas City, Mo. Dear Nameless: First of all, I’m very proud of you – congratulations! You are now on the right track. Dr. William Hamilton, a New York orthopedic surgeon, feels that people under 30 who are healthy and who have no specific medical problems do not need a special checkup before starting a jogging or running program. When you begin running, follow these hints and you will get off to a good start: • Your equipment can be anything you have, except when it comes to shoes. Make sure you wear well-fitting running shoes. These have thick, spongy soles and arch supports that take the strain off your knees. • If possible, run on turf, not cement or other hard surfaces.

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace • Before you run, warm up with light exercises – knee lifts and leg swings from a standing position and a few minutes of rope jumping. • For the first few days, walk more than you run. • Don’t expect a “runner’s high” – a feeling of exhilaration – until you reach the point at which you can run several miles without feeling tired. It will take time. • Undertake this project slowly and steadily with the desire to succeed. Please contact me again in a month and let me know how things are going for you. I care! Dr. Wallace: All my girlfriends dream and are always telling me about their dreams. They say they dream about neat things, and they enjoy their experiences. I have never dreamed and think I am losing out in not having these neat experiences. I’ve asked a lot of people about dreams and they all say they have them. Is there some way I can learn to dream? – Margo, Houston, Tex. Dear Margo: Everyone dreams, even you. In your case, you don’t remember dreaming, so therefore you think you don’t dream. Most humans’ dreams last about two hours, and most have two to four such experiences a night. • Email Dr. Robert Wallace at rwallace@ galesburg.net.

Dear Youngest Child: I told “Maybe” I couldn’t decide this for her, but would open up the question to my readers. And they sure had some comments! Here are a few: Dear Abby: My advice is DON’T! I have two sons, 27 and 31. They hardly know each other and have no interest in what the other is doing. It breaks my heart, as they are the only close blood relatives they have. I didn’t have the younger one so the older would have company. I wanted another baby. I was 29, but wouldn’t consider it at “Maybe’s” age (38). How long does she think she can run that fast? – Mitzi In Dayton Dear Abby: Most only children I know are spoiled and used to getting their own way, largely because they haven’t had to share. My husband is from a large family and they are all close, even with a 20-year age span. We recently dealt with issues

related to elderly parents, and trust me, I was so thankful to have the help of my siblings. – Grateful Mom Dear Abby: I am a happy only child. I was raised by kind people. I have a positive self-image, was a self-reliant kid and am a confident, productive adult. As a parent, I had a lot to learn. My husband, one of four siblings, reassured me that the quarreling and jealousy among our three was normal. They learned to fight and stick up for themselves – something I had to master later. As a child, I wondered what it would be like to have a brother or sister, but my imaginary friends were good company. When my aging parents were ailing, it might have been nice to have a sibling to share that with, but my husband was ample support. “Onlies” can be very peaceful people. As kids, we’re the center of the universe and responsible for everything. That sense of responsibility carries over into adulthood. – Anne In Illinois

ADVICE | The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com

Dear Abby: “Maybe Only One in Georgia” (Jan. 7), who asked whether she should have a second child, needs to understand there are no guarantees. Her 5-year-old could end up hating her younger sibling, or adoring her. Parents create a child because they want to share their union with a new life. Each child is unique and represents a life commitment, not just 18 years of hard work. I am the youngest of four, the “surprise” baby boy when my parents were in their 40s. I loved them and they never made me feel unwanted. I adore my older sister. We were always close despite the eight-year age difference. My two brothers are very different than I am, and we don’t have much to do with one another. “Maybe” should not produce another child to be a playmate to the one they have. It should be done only if they’re financially, emotionally and spiritually willing and capable of rearing another person. If not, they should enjoy the extra time, money and energy they’ll have, and perhaps give a needy dog or cat a home. – Youngest Child In Savannah

– United Feature Syndicate

HOROSCOPE By BERNICE BEDE OSOL Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – You will have to make some difficult decisions this year. Taking on too many projects at once will not earn you the recognition you desire. Focus on the most advantageous opportunity and devote all of your time, effort and expertise toward that goal. ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Your easygoing personality will draw attention and attract new alliances. Attend functions that allow you to share ideas, concepts and plans. Service groups or cultural get-togethers will lead to potential partnerships. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Don’t make promises you won’t be able to keep, or you’ll face an emotional dilemma. Listen to friends and relatives who offer valuable advice, not ridicule and negativity. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Sharing opinions and listening to the people around you will be the first step in pursuing the home projects you have in mind. You should avoid criticizing others and instead offer them worthwhile solutions. CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Postpone any plans until you are confident that you have all the details worked out. You can avoid tension by not revealing your aims until your plan is a sure thing. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – You may be feeling emotionally stifled. Getting out will enable you to make new friends. Take a close look at your present relationships and decide if changes need to be made. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – It’s a fine time for artistic expression. Whether you enjoy painting, music, literature or some other pastime, take on a project that will showcase your talent. Put aside problems and enjoy the moment. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Too much time spent helping others will lead to you neglecting the people and interests that mean the most. Take time to pursue activities that provide stimulation and greater happiness. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Budget wisely today. Your home improvement ideas may be more costly than you originally planned. Get in touch with older relatives who could use your help or offer you sound advice. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – There may be a rift with someone you deal with daily. Have a heart-to-heart talk to determine the extent of the problem, and be willing to compromise. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – New possibilities or positions in the workplace are coming your way. Other people are impressed with the efforts you have put forth. Be prepared to make a career move. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Plan physical activities that will get you motivated and inspired. It could be as simple as a brisk walk or a hike in the country. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – A small change can boost your spirits. Consider making improvements at home. Ask a friend or family member to pitch in, and it will help you form a closer bond.

Morgan Freeman talks lemurs known for narrating documentaries for film and television. What are your thoughts on their educational value? Freeman: I think the educational value is what comes first. People are glued to television. We can’t get our children out into the park, so if we can find the right stuff to present to them if they ARE going to be watching television, well, I’ve said that I have this belief in disseminating useful information about the planet and the diverse biology of it. So, I’ve dedicated myself to being available for anything that helps that along. It’s an obligation.

By ED SYMKUS More Content Now Morgan Freeman has been in the acting game for decades. Most American viewers first caught him during his run as Mark on “The Electric Company” in the 1970s. Yet even though he worked steadily in TV and films over the years, it wasn’t till his 1989 Golden Globe-winning performance in “Driving Miss Daisy” that he became a force to reckon with, equally recognizable for his one-of-a-kind face and his calm, reassuring, mellifluous voice. Face and voice kind of became one in 1994 when he costarred in and narrated “The Shawshank Redemption,” and he brought the art of narrating educational films to a whole new level when his voice graced “March of the Penguins” in 2005. His dulcet tones were part of what made the 2011 documentary “Born to Be Wild” – about orphaned orangutans – so fascinating. Two of that film’s makers, writer Drew Fellman and cinematographer David Douglas, felt that project worked so well, they got back in touch with Freeman when they were making their new IMAX film “Island of Lemurs: Madagascar,” with Douglas now directing. Freeman, 76, who seems to be in about a movie a month these days, didn’t even hesitate to say yes. He recently spoke about the cute little primates from Madagascar, and about his career, in Los Angeles. Symkus: What did you find endearing about lemurs? Freeman: I didn’t know lemurs. But I have a friend who has a place in the Caribbean who raises lemurs.

Symkus: Do you think that since the popularity and success of “March of the Penguins” some of these stories get made because you’re attached to them? Freeman: Yes and no. If I don’t do it, someone else will, and I’m a little reticent to say just as well. There are a lot of us who do this kind of work and do it quite well.

Morgan Freeman, 76, will narrate “Island of Lemurs: Madagascar.” So, on a visit there about a year ago I was introduced to them up close and personal, and I got a little bit of information about them. They’re terrific little creatures. Symkus: Were you aware that even though there are 103 species of lemurs, they’re an endangered animal? Freeman: There was a book called “Ishmael” in which the author explained that we are turning everything on this planet into food for humans. We’ll eat it, and if we can’t eat it, we’ll kill it and take its place, just move it out of the way. The amazing thing about Madagascar is that there were no humans there when the lemurs got there. So, they flourished, and

life does … without us. Symkus: Is the fact that lemurs are in trouble what got you interested in working on the film? Freeman: David and Drew said, “We’re making this film about lemurs in Madagascar, and we would like to call upon you again to do the narration for us. We did very well with ‘Born to Be Wild,’ so if you have a mind to do it we would be happy to have you.” And if we’re going to be doing something that gives some s-u-c-c-o-r – it’s a word I always read and never say – gives some attention and consideration to the other life forms on our planet, I’m happy to do it. Symkus: You’ve become so well-

Symkus: What’s your actual process for doing narration? Freeman: I get the script and I read the script. Generally there is footage that I get to see so I know what I’ll be talking about. And then it’s just a matter of sitting in front of a microphone and reading. (Lowers his voice.) And I have these incredible pipes. (Laughs.) But you can’t take too much credit for someone’s writing. There is always that to be considered. Symkus: You seem to be working all the time. How do you manage to make so many movies? Freeman: Well, it doesn’t take very long to do them. They’ll say, “Morgan, would you mind doing this part in this movie? It’s only for a week.” Well, I could do 52!
