Police are still searching for suspect in Coal City shooting

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD hlitchfield@shawmedia.com COAL CITY – In the typically quiet town of Coal City, the peace was shattered shortly after 8 p.m. Wednesday as gunshots rang out.

The town of slightly more than 5,500 people hasn’t had a shooting since 2006.

“It’s a rarity here to have anything like this in Grundy County, let alone Coal City,” Sgt. Tom Logan with the Coal City Police Department said Thursday morning.

Authorities responded at 8:10 p.m. Wednesday after numerous residents reported hearing shots fired near the Shell gas station at 725 E. Division St. Once they were on the scene, officers found Adam Fierro, 43, in a silver Dodge Ram bleeding from gunshot wounds to his body. Fierro is the owner of Horse Shoe Transportation Company of Braidwood, according to a news release from Coal City police received Thursday night.

Fierro was being dropped off at the gas station to retrieve his vehicle by an employee. The employee then left the gas station without witnessing the shooting.

During an altercation, Fierro was allegedly shot at several times by the suspect, who has not yet being named, but is an ex-employee at Horseshoe, according to the news release.

“The Coal City Police Department is continuing to withhold the name of the suspect due to the possibility of tainting the ongoing investigation,” the news release states.

Fierro then drove from the

Coal City police search a Dodge Ram truck at TD Pete’s Shell in Coal City on Wednesday night after it crashed into another vehicle with a gunshot victim driving. scene and entered the north side of the gas station where he struck an unoccupied vehicle.

The suspect left the scene in a vehicle before police arrived.

Logan said the Dodge Ram had bullet holes in numerous locations and that windows were shot out.

“All possible leads are being explored and our department continues to search for the suspect who we have positively identified,” police said in the Thursday night news release.

Thursday afternoon, Coal City police obtained a search warrant for the phone belonging to the victim that was seized at the scene. Video surveillance also is being attained from local businesses.

“We’ve received the warrant for the phone and the technicians are working to unlock the technology to get the records,” Logan said. “Once we obtain that information, we will probably seek a warrant for the suspect.”

Authorities called the shoot-

ing an isolated incident.

Police on Thursday worked to locate the suspect at several locations outside of Grundy County and continued to follow up on leads.

The victim was taken in critical condition Wednesday night to Morris Hospital, then was airlifted to Loyola Hospital in Maywood. By Thursday the victim had been upgraded to stable condition, according to a Thursday afternoon news release.

Logan said the police had not tried to get a statement from the victim as of early Thursday evening, and the weapon has not been recovered.

Police were on the scene late Wednesday searching the pickup truck where the shooting victim was found. Route 113 was temporarily shut down near the gas station.

Coal City police, crime scene technicians, the Grundy County Sheriff’s Department, Braidwood police and other agencies are assisting with the ongoing investigation.

The warrant was quashed the next day when Foster appeared in court to take care of the matter. He said Thursday his pension plan is being ac-

cessed “as we speak” to make the payments.

Foster said he did not want to discuss details about the divorce case because his family is involved. He said he has made payments.

Foster’s ex-wife and her attorney declined Thursday to comment.

CORRECTIONS In the article, “Four candidates run in Joliet District Four” that was on page 4 of the Thursday, April 2, 2015, edition of The Herald-News, the age of James Foster was incorrect, and he was misquoted regarding the year his parents moved into District Four. Foster is 44. The quote should have read, “My parents moved here in 1964, and I grew up in the area.”

University of St. Francis coordinates volunteer effort with area nonprofits

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com FAIRMONT – University of St. Francis students found many items of interest Thursday as they collected garbage in Fairmont.

Among the items they collected from wooded areas in Fairmont were a plunger, a stroller, tires, bottles, a small toilet and a bag of bones. They were one of several USF volunteer groups performing service projects throughout the Joliet area for the second annual “Day of Service.”

“It’s really nice being out and helping the community because this area is really bad and filled with litter,” USF senior Edward Solorio said.

“We haven’t even put a dent in what’s in there. It’s nice to help out.”

In its previous iteration, Day of Service was known as “One Percent Day,” where university staff beautified their own campus, USF athletics coordinator Vicki Rooney said.

Usually these efforts occurred during the spring season. But it went by the wayside over the years, Rooney said.

Last year’s Day of Service efforts were focused in Washington, which was affected by tornadoes. Rooney said she thought about having the university help out people in need there as part of its Day of Service.

This time, university staff and students are focusing on beautifying other areas, as well as helping others.

“We used to give back to ourselves and then we thought it was a little self-serving,” Rooney said. “So that’s why we decided to go off campus and do a different project. This year, we ended up with different projects because there was no natural disaster we could go to within proximity.”

Six seek seats on Plainfield Village Board Meet the candidates

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Two topics all six of the candidates for three open spots on the Plainfield Village Board touched on during a recent election forum were transportation and economic development.

The Village Board has discussed transportation issues, including cars and train stoppages, in the village during the past year. The village also is looking at a potential tax increment finance district for the Route 30 corridor.

Incumbent Bill Lamb, Plan Commission members Edward O’Rourke and John Green, local businessman Michael Lambert, former firefighter Mark Chmura and New Lenox police officer Brian Wojowski are vying for three, four-year terms on the board.

Green didn’t respond to multiple calls this week requesting an interview.

Bill Lamb

Lamb, 77, is the only incumbent in the six-way race.

Trustee Paul Fay is not seeking re-election, and former Trustee Dan Rippy resigned after he won a judicial seat in the 12th Circuit Court in November. He said he seeks his third election victory by focusing on transportation.

“We have to find a way to bypass downtown traffic,” he said.

Morris, Thompson face off in Joliet District Five

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Joliet City Council District Five sprawls across the south end of the city, from the East Side to the West Side.

It includes CenterPoint Intermodal Center-Joliet, Joliet Junior College, the Will County Courthouse and Nowell Park.

Councilman Terry Morris is the incumbent. He is being challenged by Leonard Thompson Jr.

Meet the candidates

Terry Morris

Election Central

NAME: Terry Morris AGE: 53 FAMILY: Married with seven children EDUCATION: Worsham College of Mortuary Science in Wheeling POLITICAL EXPERIENCE: One term on Joliet City Council CAREER: Owner of Minor-Morris Funeral Home in Joliet

NAME: Leonard Thompson Jr. AGE: 51 FAMILY: Single EDUCATION: Bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from St. Augustine’s University in Raleigh, North Carolina.

POLITICAL EXPERIENCE: Past candidate for Will County Terry Morris Board and Will County Executive “I think there’s so much Leonard more that can be done and Thompson Jr. CAREER: Unemployed, previously youth counselor for Illinois Department of Corrections needs to be done in Joliet,”

Morris said.

Morris is a business owner. He owns the Minor-Morris Funeral Home and is completing his first term in office.

The City Council is making progress in several areas, he said, including adding police

officers and firefighters, and opening up city government.

“I think we’ve made government more transparent,” he said.

Morris also said he believes

the city has added economic development, which still is a goal to pursue in the next four years. He would like to see a grocery store on the east side of District Five.

Check out Election Central at www.theherald-news.com/ election-central/ for candidate questionnaires and other election-related stories.

Sections of the district still need sidewalks, curbs and gutters, he said.

“There are various areas that never had any,” Morris said. “I think we should go to residents and see if they want them. And then I think we should see if we can bring the infrastructure to their area.”

Leonard Thompson

Thompson has never held elected office. But his name may be familiar to voters. He previously ran for Will Coun-

ty Executive and Will County Board.

Thompson is unemployed but said previous work has given him important experience that would serve him well as a councilman in District Five, especially in fighting crime. He said he has worked as a counselor at Illinois Youth Center-Joliet and an investigator for the Department of Children and Family Services.

“There’s been a gang problem for 30 years. That’s got to stop,” Thompson said.

District Five needs better representation, he said.

“We need someone with a bigger voice, someone who knows Joliet and knows what it needs,” Thompson said.

A top goal is to see a multipurpose center at Nowell Park.

The Joliet Park District owns Nowell Park and has plans to put a new recreation center there, but Thompson said he wants to play a role.

Decline in aquifer drives Shorewood push for home rule

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com SHOREWOOD – Village officials knew for the past 15 years that the reservoir of water sitting beneath Shorewood was shrinking.

But a 2014 report by the Illinois State Water Survey – still in development for official release – shows that depletion rate is much faster than previously anticipated.

News of the findings hit Mayor Rick Chapman’s desk about five months ago. He gathered village officials in a private meeting to hear the news straight from scientists with the Illinois State Water Survey, or ISWS. The end result of that meeting was village staff drafting a resolution to put a referendum on Tuesday’s Shorewood ballot to give the village home rule status.

If passed, home rule would allow the village to replace a 1 percent nonhome rule sales tax with a 1.75 percent home rule sales tax that would help pay for construction needed for another water source – Lake Michigan.

“Their report made me nervous,” Chapman said.

“They started talking about

Committed to Joliet  Pat is dedicated to making Joliet

the Joliet Cone of Depression. The first chart I saw made my tongue go dry because we’re sitting right underneath it.”

Chapman was talking about a deep purple spot in a graphic that measures water loss in the Illinois’ aquifers.

That water loss, close to 250 feet deep, is the largest water loss anywhere in the state, said Daniel Abrams, a groundwater flow modeler for the Illinois State Water Survey.

AQUIFER DEPLETION

“There is a danger of the aquifer potentially going dry,” Abrams said, if Shorewood and the communities around it continue to pump water at projected rates.

The village received an allocation for Lake Michigan water in 2006. And that allocation has been renewed every year since then.

But Chapman said there is a possibility the allocation may be revoked if residents turn down the referendum.

If all goes well, Chapman said the village will try to work with Plainfield to extend

SHOREWOOD’S FUTURE

Chapman has been giving his state of the village speech, which centered on the future water shortage issue, to several community groups in Shorewood during the past several weeks to highlight the village’s option to switch to Lake Michigan water.

The presentation shows the village looked at several other water sources, but Lake Michigan seemed the most viable.

a pipeline down Route 59, and would work to extend an existing pipeline from Bolingbrook that runs along Interstate 55.

While home rule remains a tough sell for many municipalities that have tried, Chapman is optimistic.

“The goal is to raise the sales tax, and that makes a very low impact for residents,” Chapman said.

Abrams, one of the two ISWS representatives who met with Shorewood officials, said several factors may cause the Cambrian-Ordovician sandstone aquifers in the Shorewood-Joliet area to continue dropping at alarming rates.

Data from the 2014 ISWS reports shows a head drop in Will, Grundy and Kendall counties centers in on the Shorewood area, with a 250foot drop in the aquifer’s depth in the last 35 years.

But Abrams said a drop of 100 feet occurred in the last seven years.

“The majority of groundwater is being used for public supply wells being taken 100 feet below the surface,” Abrams said. “It’s going to take many years, decades or even longer in this case, for the aquifer to be replenished.”

A low permeable material underlying the aquifer prevents it from retaining more water. That limited recharge is causing drops in depth in the Shorewood area and surrounding communities.

Another factor is the large demand for groundwater.

Combined with the addition of many new wells pumping even more water out, the increase in water use by many communities has created a sink underneath the northern part of Shorewood, Abrams said.

Shorewood also is just north of the Sandwich fault zone, which for an unknown reason inhibits the flow of aquifer water from the south, Abrams said.

“At the end of the day, water levels are changing much more rapidly than the rest of the state,” he said.

“The majority of groundwater is being used for public supply wells being taken 100 feet below the surface.

It’s going to take many years, decades or even longer in this case, for the aquifer to be replenished.”

Judge delays his ruling on evidence in sex abuse case

By LAUREN LEONE-CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A Will County judge needs more time to decide whether evidence seized during a federal investigation into child pornography can be used in a Joliet woman’s trial on sex abuse charges.

Margarita Hernandez, 35, was arrested in October 2012 after Joliet police learned she’d allegedly had sex with a then-15-year-old boy earlier that year. The encounter was reportedly recorded by Hernandez’s live-in boyfriend, John Gabriel, 78.

Gabriel, a retired journalist for The Times Weekly and Weekly Reporter, is being tried on federal charges of manufacturing child pornography.

Defense attorney Steve Landis last month filed a mo-

tion to suppress evidence, telling Will County Judge Edward Burmila the material sought is stale. Investigators knew Gabriel began taking the alleged pornography offline 11 days before the search warrant was issued.

Burmila was scheduled to address the case Thursday, but said he had not had time to look it over. A Margarita continuation Hernandez date was set for May 5, when Burmila is set to decide whether the evidence recovered from the search warrant is admissible against Hernandez.

“If the judge needs more time, then he can take more time,” Landis said outside the courtroom.

argued that while Gabriel’s emails to a then-17-year-old girl refer to taking nude photos of her, it was not determined those photographs are pornographic.

In a response filed Feb. 19 by Assistant Will County State’s Attorney John Connor, Connor contends the defense’s argument “has failed innumerable times” in both federal and state courts due to the ability to “forensically recover digital files months and even years later.”

In the same response document filed earlier this year, Connor argued that emails Gabriel sent to the minor were to set up a sexual encounter involving her and Hernandez. Gabriel allegedly indicated the activities would be part of a religious ritual he would perform, according to court files.

McSteen said when her children were growing up, they went “library-hopping,” eventually visiting every Will County library. Libraries are an important part of having an educated and literate population, she added.

Two of the six JJC candidates participated in the forum: Susan Marie Klen and Maureen Flanagan Broderick.

Klen said as a financial analyst, she has helped the district cut millions of dollars during the last three years without affecting program courses. Broderick said as a 12-year school board member in New Lenox, she has been a taxpayers’ advocate, uncovering some $125,000 worth of spending that was never approved by the board.

Also participating were several running for uncontested positions on the Channahon District 17 School Board; for Minooka and Channahon village trustees, Channahon village president and Channahon village clerk; and for positions on the Channahon Park District commission.

About 60 people attended, and 17 candidates out of the 36 running participated.

Channahon residents Gerry and Jean Manley were there to get a good feel for the candidates.

“I want to hear what they have to say,” Gerry Manley said.

He said his biggest issue was the increase in truck traffic in town and the potential for more.

Of the six Minooka Community High School Board candidates, only Lori Lakota and Lawrence Troutman participated. Lakota said with her degree in business administration and her job as a substitute teacher, she would make a good school board member. Her goal, she said, would be to make the best decisions possible for the community as a whole.

Troutman said he has been in public service most of his adult life, including as a Will County Board member. He is a former bus driver for the high school district and said he stands “100 percent behind the school.” He added that making sure the School Board does its homework regarding staff appointments is high on his priority list.

Of the six candidates running for Minooka grade school district, Alan Skwarczynski participated. A former teacher and principal, Skwarczynski said his strengths are curriculum, school finances, operations and working with teachers, students and parents. His agenda, he said, would be to “afford our children with an outstanding education.”

And as a taxpayer, Skwarczynski said he will be sensitive to taxpayer con-

cerns with prudent use of the district’s limited financial resources.

For the Three Rivers Library District, four out of the five candidates participated: Jennifer Doyle, Carole Fremarek, Peggy McEvilly-Reed and Wendy McSteen. Candidate Leonard Hoffman did not participate.

Doyle said she still remembers signing her name on her first library card at the district. She wants to remain a good fiscal agent of the libraries.

Fremarek said she is a fiscal conservative, and as an educator believes in lifelong learning and that the library is an important part of that.

McEvilly-Reed, a nurse and former recipient of the Channahon Amos Hayse Citizen of the Year award, said the libraries are a community anchor, have many successful programs and are good stew-

Lockport poised to approve subdivision

By SARWAT S. AHMAD Shaw Media Correspondent LOCKPORT – The city of Lockport is poised to approve a new subdivision as residents continue to express dissent.

An amended agreement with M/I Homes for annexation of the 87-acre property west of Gougar Road between 163rd and 167th streets for the proposed Sagebrook subdivision was presented Wednesday during the City Council’s committee of the whole meeting.

Before the presentation, Mayor Steven Streit said the city was sensitive to resident concerns, but that the developer had made changes to its original plans for what now looks to be a “nice subdivision with homes starting at $275,000.”

Pamela Hirth, Community and Economic Development director, recommended the agreement be placed on the board’s April 15 agenda for approval, after a public hearing.

A preliminary plan outlining the construction of 139 single-family homes and 92 townhouses, as well as a special-use permit and a request for residential only zoning, also will be on the April 15 agenda.

The existing annexation agreement was approved in 2008 – with an expiration date of 20 years – for the proposed Karen Springs 5 subdivision, which was abandoned when the real estate market declined.

Among the changes M/I homes is requesting is a reduction in impact fees of 50 percent for seven years and a waiver of

road impact fees, with the developer contributing $100,000 for a new signal at 163rd Street and Gougar Road.

A change for Hardie board siding instead of vinyl is included. There also is an agreement with the Lockport Park District to develop a park along the property’s eastern border along Gougar Road, with the developer contributing land and cash to the park district.

Residents from the adjacent Karen Springs subdivisions have opposed architectural plans for the homes, which they believe are incompatible with their own homes. They originally spoke out against plans to use vinyl siding with very little masonry on the homes.

Now residents seem opposed to the Hardie board sid-

ing, as well, and want to revert to the original plan of having homes closest to Karen Spring 3 and 4 use vinyl siding, with mandatory brick and stone skirts around the houses.

Jim Petrakos, spokesman for the Karen Springs 3 and 4 residents, again addressed the committee, stating residents still were concerned about the materials the developer was proposing. They want “a sensible transition between building styles.”

Residents fear the subdivision may end up looking monotonous, with very little brick work and all Hardie board siding, which would be a loss of “continuity” with the existing Karen Springs homes and the smaller Sagebrook homes, Petrakos said.

Matt Pagoria, agent for M/I

homes, told the committee compromises were made and “there was no need to limit the subdivision anymore than we have to.”

“At the end of the day, the subdivision looks a little better [with Hardie board siding],” he said.

According to the agreement, city staff and the developer met with residents March 26 and explained that the city had anti-monotony controls in place. It encouraged the use of masonry, such as brick and stone, on the homes’ exteriors.

It also states residents were reminded the development reflects real estate market conditions.

“It’s not 2007 anymore, that’s the struggle,” Streit said.

“It’s a difficult economy, and we’re all having to adjust.”

QUICK NEWS Joliet Fire responds to report of white powder in letter

JOLIET – Officers from the Joliet Fire Department’s hazardous materials team responded Thursday morning to a report of a powdery white substance found in an anonymous election-related letter sent to retired Joliet Fire Lt. Todd Wooten.

Security measures were taken, but the substance tested negative for any dangerous chemicals, Joliet Fire Battalion Chief Robert DiLorenzo said.

Wooten said the letter was anonymous, but he opened it anyway.

“I started reading and I suddenly noticed a white powder rolling down the letter,” Wooten said.

“Then I called 911.”

From Black Road to Ingalls Avenue, Infantry Drive was shut down beginning just before noon Thursday as the fire department’s hazardous materials team investigated, DiLorenzo said.

Crews were on the scene for about an hour and a half, he said.

“It ended up being nothing, but you never know until you test it out,” DiLorenzo said.

Wooten, a retired fire department lieutenant trained in haz-mat situations, said the white substance ended up being a gelatin-based powder.

Six candidates vie for three spots on village board • PLAINFIELD

Continued from page 4

He said trains also pose a threat for potential leaks and derailments.

O’Rourke said taxes need to remain low, and a way to do that is to diversify the tax base with more commercial and retail development, adding that he will use his experience on the Plan Commission to lead in Plainfield.

“I don’t have any agenda,” O’Rourke said. “I’ve been progressive on the Plan Commission. And I’m just trying to help make the community a better place.”

Lamb said the village is on a good path, and he wants to continue along it by focusing on several east-west connections, such as the 143rd Street extension.

Lamb’s priorities include continuing the village’s streak of not raising property taxes and passing balanced budgets.

He also said he would continue to be vocal about making sure new developments in the western part of the village follow residential design Michael Lambert Lambert also said trains standards approved by the have been a big issue in the village last year. village.

Lambert said economic development has been his primary goal, adding that the village needs to re-examine and re-position itself.

“We need to look at Plainfield in sectors,” he said.

“People in the far north side have different needs and connections to Plainfield from other parts. One size does not fit all in the village anymore.”

Lambert also said he believes the village is missing out on an opportunity for tourism, and that he would use his experience to build greater connections with businesses.

lead by focusing on three principles: integrity, accountability and transparency.

“All three of those dovetail together,” he said.

Chmura set up his campaign website weeks ago, which he uses as an outlet to post meeting minutes and video not available to the public through the village’s website.

Chmura repeated a statement he made at a candidate’s forum about the village spending unbudgeted money for a road project that didn’t pan out instead of holding the bonding company involved accountable by taking it to Mark Chmura court.

Chmura said he is conHe also wants to make sure cerned with several physical the village is responsible to and economic issues facing landowners as it expands the village. But he plans to westward.

Wojowski said he wants to focus on responsible development, noting that if a tax increment finance district is established for the Route 30 corridor, the board should ensure that growth aligns with the town’s historic nature.

“One of the reasons [my family] moved here was for the history of the town,” he said. “I’d like to keep it the way it is while still keeping the growth.”

He also said he will be a watchdog for finances and look to increase the village’s transparency and accountability.

In talking about residential development, Wojowski said he supported decreasing the density of a development whenever possible.

They were directed to the police station. “[They] first told us they threw them away,” Polito said.

“Then another police officer says there are some in the dumpster, and let me look.”

The candidates retrieved some of their signs from the dumpster, but not all.

Lambert said he thought it was ironic police started sweeping signs away just weeks before the election, when some candidates had signs out for 30 days.

“It’s not a consistent application,” Lambert said.

his signs had vanished, as well.

“I just picked up 15 signs that were dropped off in the police department,” Wojowski said Thursday afternoon. “I’ve been noticing signs that were removed. I don’t know if it was the village or someone else.”

Konopek said the department usually throws away collected signs after an election ends. Miscommunication caused them to be thrown away immediately.

“We basically jumped the gun a little bit,” Konopek said.

“Between now and the election, we will still continue to pick up signs, store them in the police department.”

Lambert said that wasn’t in line with state statute.

“It’s sad and unfortunate how village staff time spent clearing information for the public,” he said.

Candidates claim signs were also picked off private property, when owners gave permission for placement. Konopek said one candidate complained about sign removal off private property.

“We don’t pick off private property,” Konopek said.

An automatic standby generator is a back up electrical system that operates whether you are home or away.

Within seconds of an outage, it automatically supplies power directly to your home’s electrical circuit breaker box. After utility power returns, the generator shuts itself off and waits for the next outage. It operates on natural gas or liquid propane gas and it sits outside just like a central air conditioning unit.

Schuller, Crystal Cathedral megachurch founder, dies

By GILLIAN FLACCUS and AMY TAXIN The Associated Press ARTESIA, Calif. – The Rev. Robert H. Schuller didn’t wait for the faithful to flock to his upstart church in Southern California – he took his message to them.

As the car culture flourished in post-World War II California, the brash Iowa-born pastor began preaching from the roof of a concession stand at a drive-in movie theater, displaying a passion – and a marketing genius – that established him as a father of the megachurch movement that would soon sweep the nation.

But Schuller didn’t stop there. In 1970, he reached out to the masses beyond his home base in the Los Angeles suburbs with his “Hour of Power” TV program, which was broadcast into millions of homes every Sunday over the next two decades. He also constructed the soaring, glass-paned Crystal Cathedral that became the touchstone of his storied ministry.

The world-famous televangelist and author memorialized in decades of recorded sermons and books died early Thursday at a care facility in Artesia, daughter Carol Schuller Milner said. He was 88.

Schuller was diagnosed in 2013 with terminal esophageal

Rev. Robert H. Schuller delivers one of seven candlelight Christmas Eve services Dec. 24, 1997, from the Crystal Cathedral pulpit in Garden Grove, Calif. Schuller, the Southern California televangelist who brought his message of “possibility thinking” to millions, died early Thursday in California. He was 88. cancer.

A charismatic presence on the televangelist circuit, Schuller faded from view over the past decade after watching his church collapse amid a disastrous leadership transition and sharp declines in viewership that ultimately bankrupted the ministry.

The landmark Crystal Cathedral was sold to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange in 2011 and Schuller lost a legal battle the following year to collect more than $5 million from his former ministry for claims of copyright infringement and breach of contract.

Schuller, who preached in

a flowing purple robe and outsized aviator glasses, suffered a mild heart attack in 1997, but was quickly back on the pulpit, saying “the positive person” is not afraid of life’s surprises.

Schuller’s evangelical Protestant ministry, part of the Reformed Church in America, was a product of modern technology.

He and his late wife, Arvella, started the ministry in 1955 with $500 at the drive-in theater. The church’s motto – “Come as you are in the family car” – tapped into the burgeoning Southern California auto culture and the suburban boom of postwar America.

“Jesus went to the people.

He didn’t sit around in his temple and wait for them to come to him,” said Bobby Schuller, Schuller’s grandson, who took over the “Hour of Power” show.

“The drive-in ministry was his way of doing that.”

By 1961, the church had a brick-and-mortar home, and Schuller began broadcasting the “Hour of Power” in 1970.

In 1980, he built the glassand-steel Crystal Cathedral in the Orange County city of Garden Grove to house his booming TV ministry, which was broadcast live each week from the 2,800-seat sanctuary. At its peak in the 1990s, the program

had 20 million viewers in about 180 countries.

Schuller’s message – that “Possibility Thinking” and love of God overcome hardships – was a uniquely American blend of Bible and psychology. It was inspired by late author Norman Vincent Peale, who wrote “The Power of Positive Thinking.” Schuller also wrote more than 30 books, including several best-sellers.

Unlike other televangelists, the senior Schuller’s message lacked fire-and-brimstone condemnations or conservative political baggage.

“The classical error of historical Christianity is that we have never started with the value of the person,” he wrote in his book “Self-Esteem: The New Reformation. “Rather, we have started from the ‘unworthiness of the sinner,’ and that starting point has set the stage for the glorification of human shame in Christian theology.”

Robert Harold Schuller was born in Alton, Iowa, in 1926 and was ordained by the Reformed Church in America in 1950. He was pastor in Chicago from 1950 to 1955 before moving to California.

Besides his son, Schuller and his wife had four daughters: Sheila, Jeanne, Carol and Gretchen. Wife Arvella Schuller, a longtime ministry partner and organist, died Feb. 11, 2014, after a brief illness.

Foster says payment to Crescent is tied up in escrow in a construction job • PAYMENTS

Continued from page 2 On Tuesday, the law firm Foster hired for the litigation with his ex-wife filed a motion in court seeking a judgment ordering Foster to pay $9,060 in unpaid legal fees for work in the case. Foster said he recently made a $1,000 payment and the firm will be paid.

“We’re paying our bills,” Foster said.

The law firm seeking a judgment against Foster is the Joliet firm of Reich, Jumbeck & Stole. Questions about the matter were referred to attorney Gregory Jumbeck, who was not immediately available for comment Thursday.

Foster referred to the war-

rant issued March 23 as a “clerical error,” saying he did not know he was supposed to be in court that day. But the January court order that set the March 23 court date also said a warrant might be issued for Foster if he did not appear.

In the order setting another court date for the matter for April 23, Judge Robert Brumond wrote, “James Foster is ordered to appear in person or a warrant may issue.”

the husband of District 4 Councilwoman Bettye Gavin, one of four people running for the seat on Tuesday along with Foster.

Foster said the payment to Crescent is tied up in escrow in a construction job and he expects it to be available in 30 days.

Foster said he believes the Crescent Electric litigation has been spurred by Gavin, who brought it up at a March 21 candidates’ forum.

Crescent Electric Gavin did not immediately Also on March 23, a court respond Thursday to a mesjudgment was filed against sage left seeking comment.

Foster and his company, Gavin’s husband is his acNew Frontier Electrical Con- count manager at Crescent struction, ordering payment Electric, Foster said. He said of $9,545 to Crescent Electric he tried to make a $1,500 paySupply. ment on the bill in December, Crescent Electric employs but the check was handed

back to him because it was not enough.

Foster said he addressed the Crescent Electric matter when Gavin brought it up at the candidates’ forum. He said he was being unfairly singled out, arguing that the support payments were in the process of being resolved and that the Crescent payment would be made.

“The integrity is there. I don’t run off with people’s money,” he said.

Foster said Crescent will get paid when he gets paid from the general contractor on a Chicago project that has been completed.

“Being a small businessman, I don’t have $300,000 and $400,000 to pay everybody and keep my operations going,”

Foster said. “But we do pay them when we get paid.”

Foster said he has made arrangements with Crescent to pay the bill and said the company’s attorney is “waiting patiently” for the money.

When asked Thursday if he was “waiting patiently” for payment, Crescent attorney James Ziegler answered, “No.” Ziegler referred to the court judgment when asked how he expected to get payment.

Foster later Thursday put Ziegler in touch with the company Foster said is the general contractor. Ziegler said he was told by someone in that company that “there are more than sufficient funds to pay Crescent in full” from the project when final payments are made.

Lawmaker, ACLU push bill on police license plate readers

SPRINGFIELD – Law enforcement agencies are using hightech cameras to scan thousands of license plates an hour in Illinois, gathering data they say can help solve crimes and enforce traffic laws. But some lawmakers and civil liberties advocates worry the technology could lead to illegal tracking of private citizens.

Those concerns have brought together an unlikely alliance: conservative Republican Rep. Peter Breen, a constitutional law attorney who helped defend Illinois’ same-sex marriage ban in 2012, and the American Civil Liberties Union, which helped fight Breen’s challenge.

With the ACLU’s backing, Breen has introduced legislation that would limit government use of automatic license-plate readers and impose a 30-day limit on data collected. The bill, which has bipartisan support, also would prevent government agencies from selling the data to private companies.

In Will County alone, at least three or four departments use them, said Fred Hayes, head of the Illinois Association of Police Chiefs and chief of the Elwood Police Department. Hayes said his department uses the readers because there is major freight logistics park in the village, but said the data is only used for relevant police investigations.

New medical pot lawsuits question state permits

CHICAGO – More lawsuits have been filed against the state of Illinois over medical marijuana growers’ permits, as failed applicants challenge the

Police officers from the city of Kankakee and Kankakee County search Wednesday for prison escapee Kamron T. Taylor, 23, in Kankakee.

Law enforcement officers armed with rifles searched homes Thursday for Taylor, a convicted murderer who escaped from the Jerome Combs Detention Center early Wednesday. Taylor had been awaiting sentencing for shooting a man in the head during a botched robbery.

Officers had searched about 50 residences and fanned out across Kankakee County in the hunt Thursday. County Sheriff Timothy Bukowski said investigators also were considering the possibility that Taylor could have fled elsewhere.

government-selected winners in the new industry.

Two new complaints, filed in recent weeks, affect cultivation centers in southwestern Illinois and Cook County. There are now four lawsuits naming the Illinois Department of Agriculture as a defendant and 33 months left in the state’s pilot program, which has been troubled by questions about background checks and how the government selected businesses.

Around the state, growers with permits are starting construction of highly secured growing warehouses. Some have predicted a late fall harvest, with medical marijuana reaching patients soon after that.

Judge to rule what lawyers get in retiree premium refunds

SPRINGFIELD – A judge will decide soon how much in fees lawyers should get out of refunds

stemming from lawsuits that struck down a state law making retirees pay premiums for state-subsidized health insurance.

The State Journal-Register said lawyers are seeking more than $3 million. Sangamon County Associate Judge Steven Nardulli said some retirees felt the state should pay the legal fees as the losing party, but he said that isn’t an option.

Between 700 and 800 retirees have filed objections to the settlement, Nardulli said.

The state Supreme Court ruled last summer that the law was unconstitutional because it altered promised benefits.

Before the law was passed, retirees with 20 or more years of services didn’t have to pay health insurance premiums.

The Illinois Department of Central Management Services said in December that $63 million in premiums was collected from about 90,000 retirees.

Former Congressman Brad Schneider announces 2016 bid

DEERFIELD – Former one-term U.S. Rep. Brad Schneider said he is making another run for Congress in 2016.

The Democrat announced his bid in a statement Thursday for Illinois’ 10th District, a stretch of suburbs north of Chicago that U.S. Rep. Bob Dold currently represents.

Schneider unseated Dold in the 2012 presidential year. Last year, Dold won a second term in the candidate rematch.

Schneider said Washington is broken and holding back the economy and on making tough decisions.

He said he would focus on strengthening the middle class and rebuilding the economy.

Schneider, a businessman, said he already has 1,500 volunteers and 33,000 donors.

Illinois-based manufacturer to relocate to Indiana

GARY, Ind. – A steel tube manufacturer has announced plans to move operations from Illinois to Indiana by the end of the year.

The Times said T&B Tube Co. is leaving its 89,000-squarefoot facility in South Holland to expand at a 196,000-squarefoot building in Gary, Indiana.

Gary Economic Development Corp. executive director Bo Kemp said the company has been awarded an incentive package totaling about $2 million from the city, state and NIPSCO. The company also will receive discounts from NIPSCO’s economic development program, and up to $950,000 in tax credits from the Indiana Economic Development Corp. if it meets goals to hire Indiana residents.

Iranians celebrate Thursday on a street in northern Tehran, Iran, after Iran’s nuclear agreement with world powers in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Nuke deal: World powers, Iran seal breakthrough deal

By GEORGE JAHN and MATTHEW LEE The Associated Press LAUSANNE, Switzerland – Capping exhausting and contentious talks, Iran and world powers sealed a breakthrough agreement Thursday outlining limits on Iran’s nuclear program to keep it from being able to produce atomic weapons. The Islamic Republic was promised an end to years of crippling economic sanctions, but only if negotiators transform the plan into a comprehensive pact.

They will try to do that in the next three months.

The United States and Iran, longtime adversaries who hashed out much of the agreement, each hailed the efforts of their diplomats over days of sleepless nights in Switzerland. Speaking at the White House, President Barack Obama called it a “good deal” that would address concerns about Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif called it a “win-win outcome.”

Those involved have spent 18 months in broader negotiations that were extended

twice since an interim accord was reached shortly after Iranian President Hassan Rouhani entered office. That deal itself was the product of more than a year of secret negotiations between the Obama administration and Iran, a country the U.S. still considers the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism.

Opponents of the emerging accord, including Israel and Republican leaders in Congress, reacted with skepticism. They criticized the outline for failing to do enough to curb Iran’s potential to produce nuclear weapons or to mandate intrusive enough inspections. Obama disagreed.

“This framework would cut off every pathway that Iran could take to develop a nuclear weapon,” he declared. “This deal is not based on trust. It’s based on unprecedented verification.”

If implemented, the understandings reached Thursday would mark the first time in more than a decade of diplomatic efforts that Iran’s nuclear efforts would be rolled back.

It commits Tehran to significant cuts in centrifuges,

the machines that can spin uranium gas to levels used in nuclear warheads. Of the nearly 20,000 centrifuges Iran now has installed or running at its main enrichment site, the country would be allowed to operate just over 5,000.

Much of its enriched stockpiles would be neutralized. A planned reactor would be reconstructed so it produced no weapons-grade plutonium.

Monitoring and inspections by the U.N. nuclear agency would be enhanced.

America’s negotiating partners in Europe strongly backed the result. President Francois Hollande of France, which had pushed the U.S. for a tougher stance, endorsed the accord while warning that “sanctions lifted can be re-established if the agreement is not applied.”

Obama sought to frame the deal as a salve that reduces the chances of the combustible Middle East becoming even more unstable with the introduction of a nuclear-armed Iran. Many fear that would spark an arms race that could spiral out of control in a region rife with sectarian rivalry, terrorist threats and weak or failed states.

WJOL/DON LADAS MEMORIAL BASEBALL TOURNAMENT QUARTERFINAL: JOLIET CATHOLIC 12, LOCKPORT 3

Fellows, Dalesandro lift JCA past Lockport

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – An opponent might be able to beat Joliet Catholic with Drake Fellows on the mound and Nick Dalesandro behind the plate.

For that to happen, however, the foe can’t give away freebies.

Lockport hit the ball hard early against Fellows, the Hilltoppers’ ace right-hander, in Thursday’s quarterfinal game in the WJOL/Don Ladas Memorial Baseball Tournament at Gillespie Field. All the Porters had to show for it, however, was a 1-0 lead that was gone in relatively short order as JCA rolled to a 12-3 victory.

The Hilltoppers (4-0) will face Plainfield Central at 11:30 a.m. Saturday at Gillespie Field in the semifinals. The winner will advance to Saturday night’s championship game at Silver Cross Field, while the loser will play for third place at 5 p.m.

Lockport (3-2) will take on Joliet Central at 9 a.m. Saturday at Gillespie Field in the consolation bracket and will play again at either noon or 2:30 p.m. at Silver Cross Field.

“I have to tip my cap to Mr. Fellows,” Lockport coach Andy Satunas said. “And, wow, he’s only a junior. That’s exciting for this area.

“I’m proud of our guys that we had some loud outs early and executed our game plan.

We just had some at-’em balls.

But what I am disappointed in is we led 1-0 and gave them two free runs in the third inning and three freebies in the fourth.

You can’t do that against anybody in this area, especially a team as talented as JCA is this year.”

Fellows pitched six innings, having thrown 80 pitches, which was about his early season limit. He yielded one run in the first inning on two hits and no runs on one hit over his last five innings. Lockport, which won the coin flip to be the home team, strung four consecutive hits in the bottom of the seventh and scored twice off reliever Mike Quiram.

“They were dialed in on the fastball at the beginning,” said Fellows (2-0), who struck out 10

When we started mixing in the slider, they didn’t know what was coming as much.”

“Drake just goes out there and does his thing,” said Dalesandro, who had three singles, a double and four RBIs to lead JCA’s 11-hit attack. “They were hitting it hard early, and for the most part they hit good pitches.

We talked about pitching backward and Drake adjusted. That what baseball is, a game of adjustments.”

The Hilltoppers’ offense, meanwhile, took advantage of opportunities. Lockport starter Cole Bellair was let down by his defense and walked four in 41⁄3 innings.

Dalesandro put JCA ahead with a two-run single in the third. Mitch Boe knocked in a run on a fielder’s choice, and Max Brzostowski singled home

“We have great balance in our lineup,” Hilltoppers coach Jared Voss said. “We have

speed, power and right-and-left balance.”

JCA added three runs in the sixth when Dalesandro singled in a pair and Connor Brandon, who had two hits, doubled him home. Boe tripled home a run in the seventh and scored on

KC Simonich’s double.

“I love coming up with runners in scoring position,” Dalesandro said. “Those are situations you dream of.

“It felt good to hit the ball well. I never worked harder on anything than I did on my hitting in the offseason.”

“It seems like Nick has been around forever, and we enjoy every game we have him,” Voss said. “He made a great throw at the end [to cut down a would-be base stealer who was not being held on]. He tossed it right on the pillow.

“He’s a game-changer behind the plate from a throwing standpoint. He’s athletic. It’s fun to watch him there.”

Stephen Hill had a run-scoring double in the first inning for Lockport. Anthony Cocco doubled home two in the seventh after Ben Wishba singled and Gavin Lovesky doubled.

The annual WJOL/Don Ladas Memorial Baseball Tournament, which will conclude Saturday, is always good for jogging the ol’ memory.

Just recalling some of the big names who have played in the tournament and what they are up to now. A couple of the best, outfielder Joe Benson (Joliet Catholic) and pitcher Mike Foltynewicz (Minooka), are making serious bids to earns spots on the Opening Day roster of the Atlanta Braves.

Whether either or both will begin the season with the parent club will be decided this weekend. The season begins Sunday night when St. Louis visits the Cubs.

Benson, who made his major league debut in September 2011 with the Minnesota Twins, joined the Braves in the offseason after playing last season in the Miami Marlins’ organization. He is not on the Braves’ 40-man roster and was not invited to major league spring training camp but did play sparingly in major league spring training games.

As Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez attempts to finalize his roster, Benson’s name has remained in the mix as a possible spare outfielder who most importantly can play center field.

Benson started Wednesday against the Phillies and blasted a long home run to right field off ace left-hander Cole Hamels. If you get a chance, watch the video on the Braves’ official website.

A story by mlb.com writer Mark Bowman about Benson’s bid to make the parent club said Gonzalez has been impressed with the defensive skills and hustle Benson showed on the infrequent occasions when he was summoned from minor league camp to serve as an extra player.

Homering off Hamels can’t hurt his cause, and neither can his long flyout to center in his second at-bat against Hamels two innings later.

He was 3 for 12 in big-league

Benson, Foltynewicz bid to make Braves’ roster

The Atlanta Braves’ Joe Benson hits a sacrifice fly during Monday’s spring training game against the Detroit Tigers. The Joliet Catholic graduate is bidding to make the Braves’ Opening Day roster as a spare outfielder. saying the young right-hander is beginning to understand the difference between being a thrower and a pitcher.

Foltynewicz was the key piece Atlanta acquired in the offseason trade for power hitter Evan Gattis. If he is not the fifth starter to begin the season, it will be interesting to see whether he is in the Braves’ bullpen or a starter in Triple-A.

His major league debut could happen in the not-too-distant future.

You never know for sure in baseball, but when you get out to Joliet Catholic or Minooka on Saturday morning, or to Silver Cross Field on Saturday afternoon and night, to see the tournament build to an exciting conclusion, realize that you may be watching a kid or two who a few years from now will be jogging the ol’ memory again.

You can’t beat baseball in the Joliet area.

GIRLS SOCCER: PLAINFIELD SOUTH 3, MINOOKA 0

Plainfield S. beats Minooka in SPC opener

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com MINOOKA – Plainfield South’s girls soccer team took a little while to get going in Thursday’s Southwest Prairie Conference opener at Minooka.

But once the Cougars got into the swing of the match, they didn’t leave much doubt about which squad would walk away with a win.

South got a goal late in the first half and added two more scores after the break to capture a 3-0 victory over the Indians.

“In the first half, it took us about 20 minutes to figure it out and start playing our game,” Cougars coach Lauren DeWolf said. “I think we kind of sorted some things out in terms of communicating. We had so much space in the first half and then kind of closed the gap in the center of the field.

“I thought that our defense played an outstanding game.

They’re very smart players back there, and as we talk about our formation, we attack as a team and we defend as a team, and the first defenders are our forwards. In the second half, we really picked it up and started to play our game, and that’s where you saw the creativity.”

A sign of South’s creativity was that defender Lindsey Bond had a goal and an assist.

Taylor Metcaf and Isabel Cerda also scored, while Angie Corcoran had an assist.

Keeper Samantha Hlavac stopped everything that came her direction from the Cougars (2-1-1, 1-0), who received a nice defensive effort from the backline of Peyton Marmoll, Kaylee DeVivo, Ciara Coneset and Bond.

“Our team is amazing,” Bond said. “We really connect with each other, and at practice we have fun with each other; but when it’s game time, we’re serious. This team is really good, and we all have a great connection, and espe-

cially my coaches, who put a lot of positivity out there.

“My brother, Jeff, who played defense and is a role model for me, always tells me that I can make it if I believe in myself. Once I step onto the field, I feel like I’m complete; and when I touch the ball, I feel like I can do many things with it.”

Minooka (3-2, 0-1) recorded three straight shutouts to open the season before dropping a 1-0 decision Tuesday at Joliet Catholic Academy.

“We played really well on Tuesday and lost a tough one, and I guess we had a hard time getting excited about coming out here following a rainy morning,” Indians coach Chris Brolley said.

“The pieces fell for Plainfield South pretty well, so credit them since they came to play.

“You just wonder what would happen if you get a quick goal or a good defensive play that would kind of spark your team. But we hadn’t had that much pressure thrown

at us in one game. We’ve been the one with the ball and putting the pressure on. You have to possess and knock the ball around to win in soccer, and we didn’t do that today at all.”

The Indians had the first good opportunity shortly before the first half’s midpoint.

Julianna Scarcelli got free on the wing, which brought Hlavac out of the net, but her shot attempt toward the empty goal was cleared by Marmoll.

In the 25th minute, Martina Kotrba sent in a liner that Hlavac punched away; a minute later, Kotrba threatened again with a free kick that also was thwarted.

South (2-1-1, 1-0) finally mounted its first threat a few minutes later when Cerda fired in an attempt from the side that keeper Lily Benig deflected away.

But there wasn’t much that the Indians keeper could do in the 32nd minute, when Bond sent a cross to Metcaf, who put in a close-range try to put

South up for good.

The Cougars made it clear from the outset of the second half it was only getting started, as Corcoran fired a short liner that was punched away.

A bit later, Miranda Nirchi drove toward the net and Benig came out for the deflection. In the action that followed, she also knocked a short try away by Corcoran.

But right after that, a loose ball found its way to Cerda, who put in a short shot to make it 2-0 in the 45th minute.

South kept the pressure up as Lexus Rose was denied first by the Indians keeper and a bit later by defender Tara Pentoney.

Minooka had a chance to connect in the 52nd minute when Hailey Arlis got free and Hlavac came out to meet her. But her long-range effort went just wide of the mark.

The visitors closed the scoring in the 54th minute when Corcoran found Bond, who placed an attempt into the opposite side of the net.

We are looking for a real consistent year out of her.”

Third base looks to be a bit of a platoon situation, with transfer Hannah Kraal, Shayley Tyrell and Karlie Johnson vying for time. In left field will be returning starter Emily Wielbik, while junior Stephanie Pershey will play right.

“Emily gives us some experience,” Brown said. “And Stephanie could be a real sleeper for us in right. She has a cannon for an arm and is a very powerful hitter. She was up last year as a sophomore but didn’t enough at-bats to really get into a groove.

“This year, she will hit in the five spot for us and get her at-bats every game. That should really help her, and

she could be a real force for us.”

Brown also is looking for contributions from Dani Cain, who is a left-handed slap hitter.

“I have been very impressed with our team so far,” he said. “We are looking to have a strong year. We want to defend our conference championship.

“We have a tough noncon-

ference schedule, too, with games against Lincoln-Way West, Providence, Lincoln-Way East and Joliet West to start the season. We hope that will help us get ready for what we think will be another strong Minooka softball season.”

Minooka dropped a narrow 6-5 decision to Joliet West this week, a day after the Tigers knocked off highly regarded Providence, 4-1.

MINOOKA – Even though the Minooka softball team didn’t repeat its 2013 Class 4A state championship, the Indians didn’t view 2014 as a down year.

It’s hard to when you finish 20-12 and win the Southwest Prairie Conference title. The Indians didn’t even win the SPC crown the year they won the state championship.

When he looks at the new season, Minooka coach Mark Brown – who was recognized as 2014 Class 4A Sectional Coach of the Year and one of eight 2014 Class 4A Coaches of the Year by the Illinois Coaches Association – can’t help but be excited.

That will happen when you start with two quality pitchers such as Alyssa Hajduk and Shannon Stuckley and add in returning All-SPC shortstop Caty Bell.

“We are going to be strong up the middle,” Brown said. “When you look at the strength of a team, that’s a good place to start.”

Hajduk will play center field when she doesn’t pitch, with Stuckley playing first when she isn’t on the mound.

Depending on who is pitching that day, junior Courtney Kurtz will be in center or at first.

Hajduk hit .400 with four doubles, six triples, three home runs and 26 RBIs last season for the Indians as a sophomore.

Behind the plate will be junior Audrey Hanouw, who handles both pitchers during the summer and brings that familiarity to the field.

“This is Audrey’s first year of playing varsity ball,” Brown said. “But we are confident in her ability to handle it. She does a good job with the pitchers.”

Playing second base for the Indians will be senior Alexa Zito, another returning starter who also was on the state championship roster as a sophomore.

“Alexa will hit in the No. 2 hole for us,” Brown said. “She is one of our captains and

Blackhawks clinch playoff spot with win

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Paul Goldschmidt drove in two runs with a pair of doubles, Tuffy Gosewich had four hits and the Arizona Diamondbacks roughed up Jose Quintana, beating the White Sox 10-2 Thursday.

Quintana was tagged for six runs and eight hits in two innings.

“I missed with breaking balls. When this happens, you get doubles or good swings,” Quintana said. “But I feel great. I don’t think about that.

I think about the season.”

The Sox’s Tyler Flowers was ejected after being called out on a close play at first base in the seventh.

Bears part ways with 14-year vet Garza

The overhauling of the Bears’ roster continued Thursday, when center Roberto Garza was informed by the club he won’t be returning for an 11th season, the Chicago Tribune first reported.

Garza, 36, received a oneyear extension in Week 17, the final contract handed out by former general manager Phil Emery.

“Thank you to the Chicago Bears and Bears fan base for an incredible 10 years,” Garza posted on his Twitter and Instagram.

With no centers possessing starting experience on the roster, the Bears are expected to sign 32-year-old Will Montgomery to replace Garza, according to the Chicago Tribune.

OUR VIEW

Thumbs-up to being involved in their community The Herald-News Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs-ups and thumbs-down: Thumbs-up: to those who took the time to comment publicly on the Joliet Police Department as it goes through its reaccreditation process.

Six people came out Monday to Joliet City Hall’s council chambers as part of a public forum hosted by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies Inc. The department became an accredited law enforcement agency in 2003 and must reapply every three years.

We applaud those who take advantage of the times when they are asked for feedback about local governments and public services.

For those who could not attend the public forum, anyone wishing to submit written comments about the Joliet Police Department’s ability to comply with the standards for accreditation may send them directly to the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Inc., 13575 Heathcote Blvd., Suite 320, Gainesville, VA 20155.

Thumbs-down: to the state for not keeping up with the times when it comes to technology.

The state of Illinois’ accounting computer system, which receives and processes bills from nonprofit agencies, is so old that most of the technicians who still know how to fix it are about to retire.

The 1980s system takes in more than 800 accounts, and it is one reason nonprofits have to wait months for late payments from the state. It has caused nonprofits to have to keep and maintain their own antiquated computers, since modern systems cannot communicate with the older state machines.

Here’s hoping State Comptroller Leslie Geissler Munger – a Joliet native – succeeds in her plan to update the system sooner than later.

Thumbs-up: to Nolan McCants, pastor at Harvest Church in Plainfield, for jazzing up the traditional Easter service with, well, jazz.

McCants’ spin on the “new life” message is to offer improvised music by professional jazz musicians so those who shy away from traditional religious services also can experience joy and celebration in the resurrection. To ensure the music does all the talking, McCants won’t be preaching that day, either.

A one-size-fits-all approach to spirituality rarely works. We’re glad to see McCants recognizes it.

And we wish all our readers a blessed Easter.

AMENDMENT

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR O’Dekirk will work to make our streets safe again To the Editor:

I am the president of the Joliet Fraternal Order of Police Patrolmen’s Union, and I would like all Joliet residents to know that the patrol officers of Joliet looked at all the candidates running for mayor of Joliet, and we voted overwhelmingly in favor of endorsing Bob O’Dekirk.

Bob spent 10 years as a member of the Joliet Police Department working to protect our families by being fair, smart and brave. Bob eventually left the police force to pursue a career as an attorney, which he practices in the same Joliet courthouse he used to testify as an officer. There are many ways to serve Joliet families, and Bob has done an excellent job, whether it was patrolling the streets or defending Joliet families in the courtroom.

Bob understands that most crime can be eliminated through prevention, not reaction. By the time 911 is called, the damage already has been done, although the criminals eventually can be caught. I think

The Herald-News Editorial Board Bob Wall, Denise Baran-Unland, Hannah Kohut, Chris LaFortune and Kate Schott

most Joliet families agree we all would prefer to prevent crime rather than deal with the aftermath, but that takes the adequate staffing and proper training and equipping of patrol officers on the street. It is very clear Joliet is short of the adequate number of police officers it needs to prevent crime, and the result has been a terrible spike in violent crime and murders in Joliet.

Bob O’Dekirk will work to make our streets safe again, and he has the knowledge and experience to do it.

Letter: Thank you, Lockport, for your years of support To the Editor:

As many of you know, I am not running for re-election as Lockport’s First Ward Alderman in the April 7 election. I would like to thank you for all the support you have given to me over the past eight years as alderman and during the 10 years I served on the Lockport Police Department. I am grateful for all of your friendships

and, on behalf of my family, would like to thank you for all you have done to enrich our lives and deepen our love for Lockport.

I also wanted to let you know I will be endorsing Jim Petrakos to replace me on the City Council. I have known Jim for some time – he is a longtime Lockport resident who is raising his young family here with his wife, Debbie, and has a desire to give back to Lockport as your alderman.

Jim has been very active with local government in his capacity as a professional architect, so he understands responsible development and quality design for homes and businesses. I am confident he will represent you fairly and will make sure your voice is heard on all the important issues that are discussed at city meetings. If you’d like to learn more about Jim, visit his website at www.jimpetrakos.com.

Thank you again, and I hope that God blesses you and our city with peace and happiness in the coming years.

“New Year’s Day” in the Hadley Valley Forest Preserve by Joliet artist Maggie Capettini.

This and other works by Capettini are being displayed at forest district visitor centers.

Joliet artist displays three seasons of oil paintings, which she created outdoors at Hadley Valley

By SEAN LEARY Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – Joliet artist Maggie Capettini paints en plein air, but there’s nothing “plein” about her artwork.

Inspired by the changing seasons and the vibrant and rustic environment of the area park of the same name, Capettini’s work, “Hadley Valley: A Year in Seasons,” will be displayed through October at three Forest Preserve District of Will County visitor centers on a rotating basis.

“It’s a beautiful area – there’s a wonderful stretch of wilderness between Joliet and Homer Glen, there are paths for joggers and horses and all sorts of types of plants and scenery,” Capettini said. “I was interested in getting back into painting, and the idea of painting the outdoors was appealing to me because of the beautiful colors and because there’s always something new to see every time you return to the park. I would drive down Route 6 and just be in awe of it, and it inspired me.”

That also inspired her to paint in a style rarely used – en plein air, which means, roughly translated from the French, that her works are painted outdoors. An advantage to working in this style was that Capettini could take her children – Flynn, 6 and Lilah, 4 – with her.

Capettini would paint; her children would play. They enjoyed the scenery as much as she did.

“Once I started painting, I couldn’t stop,” Capettini said.

her life.

“I always loved doing it, but I never thought it would lead me to something so serious,” Capettini said. “I always just liked making things and appreciated doing them.”

A graduate of Batavia High School who got her bachelor’s degree in art from Augustana College in 2001, Capettini, now 35, didn’t consider exhibiting her works while she was painting them. She merely wanted to capture the beauty she enjoyed during those nature walks with her kids.

It was the first time in a long time Capettini had painted, she said, partly because she never really had discovered her niche. That changed in 2011, when Capettini took a landscaping class with a Chicago artist, James Swanson.

“It really clicked for me,” Capettini said. “I loved painting landscapes because there’s always something new to Photos provided them.

loves exercising and jogging – and that’s his escape, that’s how he gets away from it all,” Capettini said. “With me, it’s painting. It gives me the ability to just sort of shut life off for a while and turn inwards.”

Capettini hopes to keep painting, with different elements as her muse.

“I’m exploring painting architecture, older houses and buildings,” Capettini said. “And water, bodies of water. Like the outdoors, it’s something that you don’t think changes much, but it actually does. And it’s all those small changes that add up to something special if you take the time to notice.”

PUZZLES CROSSWORD

SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

If you bid up, play up also

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Khalil Gibran, a Lebanese artist, poet and writer, said, “The teacher who is indeed wise does not bid you to enter the house of his wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your mind.”

That is so true.

At the bridge table, after bidding, you must apply your mind to winning the requisite number of tricks.

In today’s deal, South pushes into six hearts. West leads the spade 10 to South’s ace. How should declarer continue?

In the auction, South’s two-heart rebid was forcing, since North’s two-over-one response guaranteed a rebid. When South heard about respectable heart support, he plunged into Blackwood. He upgraded for his secondary club fit.

If trumps are 2-2, there will be no problems. If they are 4-0, the contract has no chance. But what if they are 3-1? Then it looks as if declarer would need the club finesse to work. However, there is another possibility.

South cashes his heart ace, plays a diamond to dummy’s ace, ruffs a diamond in his hand, leads a heart to dummy’s king (getting the bad news), and ruffs the last diamond.

Then declarer plays off his other two spade winners.

With his preparations complete, South exits with a trump, giving East the lead.

Here, East has only clubs left in his hand, so must play away from his queen into dummy’s ace-jack.

Note, though, that if East still has a spade or diamond in his hand, declarer would ruff and take the club finesse. ******

ANSWER TO PREVIOUS PUZZLE I S H A N J A Y G G E S P A E T H E R

• Try mindfulness training.

This technique can help you focus in a nonjudgmental way on the present moment.

• Medications. Ask your doctor about medications that may help. For example, research has shown amantadine (Symadine, Symmetrel), a drug used to treat Parkinson’s disease, improves fatigue in patients with MS. Several other less-well-studied drugs also may help: methylphenidate, fluoxetine and aspirin.

It is unclear what causes the fatigue in sufferers of multiple sclerosis. In my opinion, it is likely a reflection of the inflammation caused by the immune system in the brain. The chemicals the immune system uses to orchestrate its attack (called cytokines) cause fatigue. Drugs that neutralize some cytokines now are available, and perhaps they also will help treat the fatigue of MS.

Dear Dr. K: I have multiple sclerosis. For me, the most debilitating symptom is fatigue. What can I do to feel more energized?

Dear Reader: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an illness affecting the brain and spinal cord. Normally, an insulating cover called myelin surrounds nerve cells and helps transmit nerve signals. MS is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the brain and spinal cord. This causes the myelin sheath to become inflamed or damaged, which disrupts or slows nerve impulses.

The disruption of nerve signals causes a variety of symptoms. MS can affect a person’s vision, ability to move parts of the body, and ability to feel sensations (such as pain and touch).

Most people with MS also experience severe fatigue. MS fatigue tends to be more intense and debilitating than what healthy people experience after sustained physical, mental or emotional exertion. It can make it difficult to concentrate and can interfere with daily activities or responsibilities.

Fatigue may be a direct effect of MS. It also can be a secondary effect of other symptoms. For instance, people with MS often have bladder problems. This may mean nighttime trips to the bathroom – and that can cause daytime fatigue.

The good news is there are ways to boost your energy levels.

Here are some general tips for increasing your stamina.

• Exercise. Regular exercise can improve cardiovascular fitness and muscle strength and reduce fatigue in everyone, including people with MS. And most people with MS are not so weakened by the disease that they cannot exercise.

Be sure to start slow, and stop if you become tired.

A physical therapist can design an exercise program tailored to your fitness level and individual needs.

• Stay cool. MS fatigue

not be responsible for feeding your daughter’s therapist.

Have a talk with the therapist and suggest that if she’s “out of fuel” at the end of your daughter’s session that she bring some individually wrapped cheese sticks or fruit with her. It would be a lot healthier than what you’re giving her and probably better for her.

Dear Abby: My 18-year-old son and his fiancée have been kicked out of a few apartments and have asked to live with me. Wanting to help him, I agreed.

When they moved in, I gave them four rules to follow: No drugs in the house, no sex, no coming upstairs after 10 p.m., and the dishes must be done every night or they will pay $400 a month rent.

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips Well, a week ago I caught them doing drugs, so I called the cops. They were arrested that night. They now are asking to come back. I refuse to allow it because I have an 11-year-old at home with me and another 18-year-old who I want to keep away from this kind of influence.

My son keeps texting me and trying to guilt me into changing my mind because he got his fiancée pregnant.

Where I live it gets very cold, but I need to show my other children it’s not OK to do drugs.

Am I doing the right thing by not letting them come back, or am I a heartless mother like he says? – Mom

Of Tough Love Dear Mom: Regardless of

what your son says, you are not heartless. You took him in with certain conditions.

He and his girlfriend abused your trust, and you handled the situation wisely.

If the girl is really pregnant, she should not be using drugs. If she’s hooked on something, she needs to get into a rehabilitation program ASAP. If she has parents, perhaps they will take her in. But you have done your part, and if you allow your son and his girlfriend to stay with you, they will continue to break your rules and you’ll wind up responsible for them and the baby – or two or three. I advise against it.

To my Jewish readers: Sundown marks the first night of Passover. Happy Passover, everyone.

Dear Abby: We have a daughter with severe developmental disabilities. Thankfully, she receives 40-plus hours of in-home therapy a week, which is covered by insurance.

Her first therapist arrives at 7:30 a.m. and leaves at 11:30 a.m. Some days, she will pick up something to eat on the way. Most days, I suspect she hasn’t eaten breakfast.

About once a week she’ll call out for me, asking for a snack – usually a breakfast sandwich – which I make for her. Last week, she asked for some chocolate-covered nuts I had offered her once. I told her we had eaten them.

I finally put out a bowl of old hard candy to stop her from asking. She has been eating it for a while now and joking that I’m making her gain weight.

Must I continue providing her snacks or say something about her bringing her own?

I am grateful for the work she does for our daughter and hope I’m not sounding petty. –

SATURDAY HOROSCOPE TODAY – It’s time to put your needs first. You are a naturally helpful and kind soul, but it is up to you to secure your future. Resentment will ensue if you continue to let others demand too much of your time. Make your goals your top priority.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – You may be surprised to learn how many people are on your side. Don’t be afraid to call in favors and ask for assistance. Your efforts will not go unnoticed.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – You will miss an important detail if you are too impatient. Taking the time to go over your work thoroughly will prevent you from having to start all over again.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Your stress level is on the rise. Plan a pleasurable day with family, friends or neighbors. Include the younger members of your group for added fun.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Don’t rely on others to bring you out of your funk. Treat yourself to something special. Go shopping or sightseeing, or take in a cultural or sporting event.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Let your creativity shine.

You should share your talents with as many people as possible. If you maintain a positive outlook, Lady Luck will pay you a visit.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Don’t expect others to help you get ahead. Do your homework and take the steps that lead to success. You have

the knowledge you need, so stop wasting time and get moving.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Staying on top of trends will be a key factor in getting ahead.

Upgrade your skills and your look if you want to be seen as a leader.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Trust in the decisions you make. Doubts will weigh you down and impede your progress. Don’t be dissuaded by the concerns or comments of others. Aim to come out on top.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Put your worries aside. Arrange a gathering of friends and family for some lighthearted entertainment.

You have what it takes to be the perfect host

and to bring people together.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Stop berating yourself if things don’t go your way. You can only control so much, and you risk damaging your health if you dwell only on the negative possibilities.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Plan a makeover or update your image. The better you look, the better you’ll feel. A new look will refresh and rejuvenate you, giving you the energy required to get ahead.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You will wear yourself out if you fight the changes that are going on around you. Find a way to fit in rather than go against the grain.
