overweight trucks on Arsenal Road

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Will County officials are poised to extend an initial 90-day ordinance allowing for permitted overweight trucks on Arsenal Road.

The plan is to stretch the ordinance, which is set for expiration later this month, another 60 days through July 26 with Walter Strawn Drive still out of commission, Will County Board Speaker Jim Moustis, R-Frankfort, said Thursday during an Executive Committee meeting.

The Illinois Commerce Commission in January shut down Walter Strawn Road at

Route 53 out of concern for public safety because of a railroad crossing just off the intersection.

A public hearing will be held on the ordinance extension at the County Board’s May 21 meeting. At previous hearings, representatives from trucking and logistics companies applauded the county’s efforts, arguing the Walter Strawn shutdown eliminated access for overweight trucks into the CenterPoint Intermodal Center parks in Joliet and Elwood.

The Elwood crossing has been a point of contention for years, pitting Elwood village officials against CenterPoint Properties in a series of hear-

ings on how to best address safety concerns there.

Since that time, the Illinois Department of Transportation and county officials have ramped up discussions about the state agency taking over the county-owned Arsenal Road, said Nick Palmer, chief of staff for County Executive Larry Walsh.

“We’re working toward a solution where [IDOT] would take over this road. But they’re not just going to take it for nothing. We’re going to have to negotiate,” Palmer said.

The ordinance was approved earlier this year on a temporary basis amid concerns from county highway officials about roadway repair needs because of heavier truck traffic on Arsenal Road.

Moustis said he had hoped for a solution to the Walter

Plainfield students will switch schools next school year to relieve congestion Officials say Lincoln Elementary at capacity

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Plainfield school officials have decided to change attendance zone boundaries to relieve congestion at Lincoln Elementary School.

Starting next school year, elementary students in the Fieldstone and Stone Bluff subdivisions will attend Lakewood Falls Elementary instead of Lincoln Elementary School.

School officials have said this change will affect 87 students from kindergarten through fourth grade.

Any new students from Fieldstone and Stone Bluff areas who enroll next school year also will attend Lakewood Falls.

The change was approved by board members a week ago, as Lincoln Elementary School was at capacity.

“It makes all the sense in the world and also logistically for the schools,” said Tom

Hernandez, Plainfield District 202 spokesman.

Calls left for officers with the Lincoln Elementary School and Lakewood Falls parent teacher associations seeking comment were not immediately returned Thursday afternoon.

Hernandez said the feedback from parents on this decision has been minimal, saying “we’ve gotten less than a handful of emails.”

He said it’s never a welcome thing for children to move from one school to another, but it happened regularly when the school district was growing in the early 2000s.

Students from Fieldstone and Stone Bluff will continue to attend Ira Jones Middle School and Plainfield North High School next school year.

The subdivisions have been assigned to Lincoln Elementary since 2006 because Lakewood Falls Elementary School was at capacity, school officials said.

According to the Illinois State Board of Education, school enrollment for the 2013-2014 school year at Lin-

coln was 879 students and 722 students for Lakewood Falls.

Hernandez said enrollment for Lincoln and Lakewood Falls was 864 and 683, respectively, for this academic year.

“It makes sense numerically in terms of the enrollments in the neighborhood and geographically with the students being able to ride on the bus a shorter amount of time,” he said.

Students attending Lakewood Falls will have a 15-minute bus ride back and forth, instead of up to 50 minutes when they went to Lincoln, school officials said.

Hernandez said the Plainfield area is starting to see more development since the recession crippled the housing market in the late 2000s.

Now subdivisions that were sitting half completed are filling in.

Although the school district likely will not see the growth it had before the financial crisis, he said school officials are seeing the trends starting to turn. Developers now are buying and building lots.

Strawn Drive crossing issue by now.

“The only one that seems to be concerned about this is the county, but they’re not even our intermodals,” Moustis said. “The only one looking out for this industry is the county. Everyone else seems out to lunch.”

Under the ordinance, weight limits on Arsenal Road will increase to 92,000 pounds per truck. The weight limit now is 88,000 pounds.

The amendment also created a new fee structure for permits that replaced the pertrip permits with a daily permit at $50, a weekly permit at $250 and a monthly permit at $500.

The county issued 7,300 overweight permits in the 11 days after the crossing shutdown. That compares to 16,000 permits for all of 2014.

Visitors pray for peace, unity and families

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Family, illness, the city of Joliet – these were some of the things Janet Travis planned to pray for Thursday as she sat in the pews of Old Central Church.

Travis, a retired Joliet resident, attended for the first time a National Day of Prayer Ecumenical Service. The Joliet Region Interfaith Education Council hosted an hour-long prayer session, part of a nationwide recognition of prayer from different faiths.

Travis said she wanted to pray for many things, including peace, because she believed in Jesus Christ and without him she “can’t do anything but fail.”

“I pray as I’m led by the spirit,” she said.

Thursday marked the first time in a long time Joliet has hosted a National Day of Prayer, said Minister Naurice Moffett, JREIC community liaison. He said at least five years have passed since Joliet held one.

“It’s been years since Joliet has had it, but I’m glad to bring it back,” he said.

Sister Judith Davies, an Order of St. Francis chancellor, said the National Day of Prayer began in April 1952.

Morris celebrates National Day of Prayer on Grundy Courthouse lawn

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Nancy Musial of Morris sat in the shade of a tree Thursday on the lawn of the Grundy County Courthouse, raising her hands to the sky as she sang along with Tammy and Avery Baetzel at the annual National Day of Prayer event.

“We need God so bad in this country,” she said. “We need to turn around back to him.”

Pastor Rich Giovannetti, coordinator of the Grundy County event and pastor with Standing in the Word Ministries in Morris, said America was founded on the principle of prayer, and the future of Amer-

ica’s success is dependent on the consistent word of prayer.

“The future of America depends on the God-fearing and God-hungry people,” he said.

At noon, Giovannetti took to the microphone and welcomed those in attendance, explaining the importance he sees in holding the event.

“America needs to be the greatest nation on the face of the Earth. We are the ones holding the world in order,” he said. “The strength of our nation is its moral direction, its spiritual operations. It’s the heart and soul of the body of Christ of the church. That is why we have a National Day of Prayer. That is what our founders started with.”

After an opening prayer

by Pastor Steve Larson, with First Baptist Church of Morris, the Morris Color Guard presented colors and performers sang their rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

During the event, the pastors and those in attendance prayed for government leaders, the military and National Guard, first responders and police, as well as those who hold judiciary office.

They also prayed for the cities, families, youth and schools of the community.

The program closed with the final set of prayers, prayers for finances and economy, churches, repentance and for revival.

Dennis Tejack of Morris lifts his hand in prayer Thursday during the National Day of Prayer event held on the Grundy County Courthouse lawn.

Honor Flight honors Joliet vet for service More online

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com

Visit this article at TheHerald-News.com to view a video on the celebration of Anthony Leone’s return from the Honor Flight.

JOLIET – One of the most striking moments for local World War II veteran Anthony Leone during his Honor Flight on Wednesday was the grateful people shaking hands with him in Washington, D.C. “As we went along the way, they had their hands out,” said Anthony, a 92-year-old Joliet resident. “There were all these kids, and people.

One of them – her eyes were half closed – reached out her hand. She was blind.

“It’s real amazing to see the attendance and appreciation for veterans.”

Cemetery in Elwood.

“When we started talking about [Honor Flight], you could see his eyes light up,” he said of his father. “He has only flown two times in his life.”

Welcome home

The veteran

Anthony, a U.S. Navy Water Tender Second Class in the war, served in the Asia Pacific theater during WWII, pipefitting from Nov. 4, 1942, to Dec. 10, 1945, or “all the way through the atomic bombs,” he said. He retained his original job as a pipefitter for the EJ&E Railroad after the war.

Through his son, Tony Leone Jr., and daughter in-law, Sara Leone, Anthony was selected as one of several WWII veterans for Wednesday’s Honor Flight Chicago.

Honor Flight is a nonprofit organization with a goal of honoring veterans, who are flown for free to Washington, D.C., to reflect at the memorials built to honor their service to the nation, according to Honor Flight’s website.

Vikaas Shanker – vshanker@shawmedia.com

Anthony Leone of Joliet hugs one of his great-grandchildren upon returning home Wednesday from an Honor Flight trip to Washington, D.C. Priority is given to WWII survivors, along with terminally ill veterans, according to Honor Flight. An estimated 640 WWII veterans die daily, according to Honor Flight, and “Our time to express our thanks to these brave men and women is running out.”

After getting dropped off at Chicago Midway International Airport at 4 a.m., the veterans departed for Washington, D.C., about 6:30 a.m. They spent the day there, visiting

monuments and memorials, and accepting verbal and written thanks of schoolchildren, legislators and others for their service.

Sara, who gathered much of Anthony’s history for the Honor Flight and the family, said her father-in-law is spry for his age.

“You think about it and many of these veterans are in their 90s,” she said. “He’s still really with it, just like you and me, with a few aches and

pains.”

Anthony has three children, five grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren. He enjoys fishing and camping, Sara said, adding that he also was a “mushroom hunter extraordinaire.”

Tony said his father was involved in veterans organizations, such as Cantigny VFW Post 367, and was part of the honor guard rifle squad, often performing services at Abraham Lincoln National

One part of the trip Honor Flight organizers and family members don’t tell participating veterans about is the “welcome home” celebration they receive upon returning to Midway Airport.

Anthony beamed at the sight of four generations of his family as he and other veterans were taken through a crowd of hundreds of people thanking them.

He hugged his great-grandchildren, who were holding flags and photos of a young WWII version of their great-grandfather in Navy garb. He found his wife, Rita, and kissed her before moving along the line of people, continuing to shake hands.

“It was different stories in our day,” Anthony said.

“Now, if you’ve got a grudge [with the war], you still go and honor veterans. I think we’re changing, and I’m very thankful.”

Frankfort band welcomes vets at Honor Flights

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com CHICAGO – An Honor Flight celebration Wednesday night at Chicago Midway International Airport night attracted hundreds of supporters who waited for World War II veterans to arrive.

As they waited, the crowd

was treated to bagpipes, veterans bands and other musical tastes. One of those bands was the Frankfort Brass Band, which includes musicians of all ages from throughout Will County.

Nearly half the band also is a part of the Joliet American Legion Band. The band was founded in 1897 and was

around for 25 to 30 years, according to its Facebook page. It was reorganized by the Frankfort Historical Society in 2005.

The band played a range of music Wednesday, from renditions of patriotic songs to the Bears fight song, as people waited for the chartered Honor Flight to arrive from Washington, D.C.

“Everybody says it’s a great honor to play for the greatest generation, which never received the honor,” Band Director Mike Orenic said. “But it really is true.”

The band has performed at every Honor Flight at Midway from 2012 to Wednesday’s flight. It’s first such performance was June of 2010, Orenic

said. Honor Flight is a nonprofit organization that flies veterans for free to Washington, D.C., to reflect at the memorials built to honor their service to the nation, according to Honor Flight’s website.

“The veterans, they’re so emotional about the whole experience, they just say thank you,” Orenic said.

Ikea warehouse would include 115-foot high tower

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The future Ikea warehouse in Joliet will include a tower the equivalent of 12 stories high – and there could be two of them.

Height, noise and number of trucks were among the topics discussed at a meeting Ikea held with neighbors of the 1.4 million-square-foot facility to be built in the Laraway Crossings Business Park.

Also discussed was how many distribution centers will be built.

Ikea representatives confirmed it could be two facilities – each 1.4 million square feet in size, with center towers 115 feet high.

“There is land available to the west of the land we currently own. We are pursuing that land,” Ikea Asset Manager Karen Talarico said. “We’re looking to purchase that land.”

Project Construction Manager Frank Houder said Ikea has not decided whether or when to build a second facility.

But if it is built, it would be a

twin of the distribution center Ikea hopes to open before the end of 2017, he said.

Ikea expects to start construction in spring 2016.

Houder said he did not like defining the height of the center tower, which would be an automated storage bay area, in terms of stories. He noted there would be no separate floors in the tower. It would be an open space.

But residents at the meeting urged him to define the tower in terms of stories to get a clear idea of how high it will be.

The building around the center towers would be about four stories high.

Ikea called for the meeting to talk with residents about construction plans for the site in the business park at Illinois Route 53 and Laraway Road.

Most of the 30 residents at the meeting in City Hall were from the nearby Sugar Creek subdivision, located outside Joliet city limits, but next to the Ikea site.

Many comments focused on the effect of the project once it is built, including how many

more trucks the project will bring to the area.

“If you haven’t driven [on Illinois 53], do it for one day and see how crazy it is and how dangerous it is,” Eric Sperstad told the Ikea representatives. “You need to start now, as opposed to when it’s done.”

Houder and Talarico said they did not know how many trucks would go to the site daily, but would find out. They said the warehouse will operate 24 hours a day.

They did say trucks should not use Rowell Avenue, meaning they would move away from the neighborhood. The main route for trucks is supposed to be Emerald Drive out of the park to Route 53 and north to Interstate 80.

Residents at the meeting gave a round of applause to Ikea for holding the meeting to discuss the plans with them.

But their frustration with the prospect of more warehouse development and more trucks was evident.

“Basically, we learned that it’s twice as worse than we thought,” said Niel Fulsang.

Grainger still undecided on location

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – The Grundy County Board’s Economic Development & Tax Committee on Wednesday took the next step needed to welcome a potential second building by W.W. Grainger Inc. in Minooka.

The committee approved and will send to the full County Board for consideration next week a resolution to allow Chairman David Welter to execute the Economic Development Project Area 1 Rebate Agreement for Grainger.

“We’ve not heard from Grainger if they’ve made a decision at this point,” Nancy Ammer, CEO with the Grundy Economic Development Council, said Thursday. “The resolution passed last night is the second part of a two-step process required by the county to offer the rebate.”

Grainger seeks a four-year, 50 percent tax rebate incentive for the proposed 1 millionsquare-foot expansion. The full board approved the rebate at the April regular meeting.

The property, which Grainger owns, is located within a Grundy County Economic Development Project Area boundary on 52 acres Grainger purchased from Liberty Property Trust next to the current facility on Minooka Road.

The rebate acts as an incentive to encourage companies to build within Grundy County.

The rebate helps lessen the impact of the county’s machinery and equipment tax, which taxes machinery as real property.

The state’s other 101 counties classify machinery as personal property, which is not taxed in Illinois.

David Nelson, committee member and vice chairman of the County Board, said he is

excited about the prospect of Grainger expanding in Minooka.

“They are a great partner in the community that takes care of their employees,” Nelson said. “It makes sense to offer them the rebate.”

If the County Board approves the resolution at Tuesday’s regular board meeting, Welter can sign documents needed for the rebate if Grainger decides to build in Minooka again.

Grainger is considering the Minooka location and a South Carolina location for its expansion.

The new building will be between 1 million to 1.3 million square feet and will add at least 130 local employees.

The project has a proposed capital investment of $50 million, and has a targeted commencement date of 2016, with completion and operational targeted for 2018.

Romeoville man faces bench trial in heroin death of Peter Kucinski JOLIET– A Romeoville man told a detective he merely acted as the driver for a heroin purchase that reportedly resulted in the death of a Lockport man last year.

Benjamin “Benji” Camunias, 28, faces a bench trial before Judge Amy Bertani-Tomczak on a charge of drug-induced homicide in the Aug. 10, 2014, overdose of Peter Kucinski.

Assistant Will County State’s Attorney Mike Knick said Camunias and Kucinski’s girlfriend, Amy Shemberger, bought the heroin in Oak Park that afternoon before he dropped her off at Camunias’ residence in the 500 block of East Fourth Street in Lockport.

Shemberger awaits a separate trial.

Lockport Detective William Sheehan testified Thursday he found a hypodermic needle on the floor outside Kucinski’s bedroom that night. After

questioning Shemberger and another woman, Sheehan arranged for an interview with Camunias.

The defendant admitted getting a text from Shemberger and driving her to Oak Park, but did not discuss heroin until Sheehan showed him photographs of text messages from Shemberger’s phone, the detective testified.

Camunias said Shemberger wanted the heroin for her back pain and Kucinski wanted it for pain in his shoulder, according to Sheehan.

Benjamin After Kucins“Benji” ki’s toxicology Camunias results came back in October, Camunias was questioned again in the Will County Jail, where he was being held in connection to a Bolingbrook drug case. A video recording of that interview was played in court Thursday.

Camunias said Shemberger

gave the man who came over to the car $100 to buy “a jab with ... 13 or 14 bags of heroin.”

Shemberger gave Camunias three bags and $10 for gas money before he dropped her off, according to the interview. “[Kucinski] was outside on the porch when I dropped off Amy,” Camunias told Sheehan, saying he and Kucinski had not socialized much. Camunias went to his father’s birthday party, but received a phone call from Shemberger later that night.

“She called and said [Kucinski] was overdosing, can you take me to the hospital,” Camunias said. “I assumed he was still alive.”

During the interview, Camunias told Sheehan he was a heroin addict and “it sucked” that Kucinski died.

“How many times have you had that call about friends ... overdoses?” Sheehan said.

“Too many,” Camunias answered.

The trial is expected to continue next week.

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Jobless rates fell in March and the number of jobs in Will County is up this year compared to last, according to a first quarter economic report released Thursday by the Workforce Investment Board of Will County.

The county experienced 3 percent growth in jobs in the first three months of 2015, when compared to the first quarter of 2014.

At the same time, the

county’s unemployment rate was down to 6.8 percent in March, compared to 8.8 percent in March 2014.

That compares to the state’s 6.6 percent unemployment rate, Grundy County’s 8.1 percent, Cook County’s 6.6 percent and the national 5.5 percent unemployment rate.

The drop in jobless rates is good news for the county, but the data isn’t as clear cut when other factors are considered, said Pat Fera, manager of the Will County Workforce Investment Board.

Fera said she’s watching

the labor force participation rate – or the percentage of the population that either has a job or is actively seeking one when surveyed by the U.S. Department of Labor.

That participation rate is consistently dropping, which could mean a number of things, she said.

“What some of the economists are saying, it’s because people feel more confident about the economy and they’re ready to retire,” Fera said. “Or it may be that they’re in a two-income household that no longer

By VIKAAS SHANKER ROMEOVILLE – A local figure skating talent is helping spread awareness of a kidney disease after hearing about the struggles of a Robert C. Hill Elementary school student.

Paige Rydberg, a three-time national figure skating competitor and 2014 U.S. National Novice Silver Medalist, found out about 6-year-old Khaim Perez’s battle with Minimal Change Disease, a form of kidney disease.

To Paige, a freshman at Romeoville High School and former student at Robert C. Hill, Khaim serves as an example of strength through adversity.

“For such a young kid to go through all that at his age, and to go to school and fight through it all, that is inspiring,” she said.

Paige and Khaim are participating in the 2015 Move For The Kids 5K Walk/Run in Chicago for “Team Khaim,” with several other people who were recruited. A fundraising page associated with the walk has raised $1,039 for the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago.

Khaim’s mother, Vanessa Hernandez, formed the team to give back to the hospital. Her son was 2 years old when she took him to a pediatrician for swelling. He was transferred to the hospital, where he spent about 40 days over the past three years being treated for

needs both incomes because of the economy.”

But there’s also the possibility that more people are not considered part of the labor force because they do not have a job and are not actively looking to find one.

According to the report, the county’s average monthly wages stood at $2,127 in 2014, up from $2,006 in 2013. That’s also good news, she said.

“I think that shows companies are becoming more confident in the economy and are starting to give raises,” Fera said.

New Discovery for People with Failing Memory World’s Leading Brain Expert and Winner of the Prestigious Kennedy Award, Unveils Exciting News For the Scattered, Unfocused and Forgetful

The Missing Link is Found and Tested

It’s hard to pronounce that’s for sure, but it certainly appears from the astounding clinical research that this one vital nutrient phosphatidylserine (PS) can really make a huge difference in our mental wellness. 17 different double blind studies with placebo controlled groups have been involved in the clinical research of PS with patients between the ages of 55-80 years of age.

Periodically the researchers gave these patients memory and cognitive tests and the results were simply amazing: 1) PS patients outperformed placebo patients in All 5 Tests - 100% Success Rate 2) After only 45 days there was a measurable improvement in mental function 3) After 90 days, there was an impressive and amazing improvement in mental function The group taking phosphatidylserine, not only enjoyed sharper memory, but listen to this… they were also more upbeat and remarkably more happy. In contrast, the moods of the individuals who took the placebo (starch pill), remained unaffected….no mental or mood improvement at all.

Vital Nutrient Reverses “Scatter Brain”

This incredible PS nutrient feeds your brain the vital nutrient it needs to stay healthy... PS now has the attention of some of the world’s most prominent brain experts. It has been written up and published in leading science and medical journals and its findings have electrified the International scientific community.

My Memory Started to Scare Me.

I would forget all kinds of things and something that I just said earlier in the day would have completely slipped my mind. I almost forgot my granddaughter’s birthday and that would have been horrible. I had forgotten lots of other little things along the way. I was worried about it.

Over the last several months I’ve noticed my memory seemed to be getting pretty unreliable and so I thought I’d better do something about it now.

So when I read about this amazing PS nutrient and how much it would help me with my memory I wanted to try it.

It’s great! I have actual recall now, which is super.

After about 6 weeks of taking it on a daily basis is when I began to notice that I wasn’t forgetting things anymore.

Thanks to PS for giving me my memory back. It’s given me a lot more self-confidence and self-esteem. I would not trust my memory without it.

By Steven Wuzubia Health Correspondent; Clearwater, Florida: Dr. Meir Shinitzky, Ph.D., is a former visiting professor at Duke University, recipient of the prestigious J.F. Kennedy Prize and author of more than 200 international scientific papers on human body cells. But now he’s come up with what the medical world considers his greatest accomplishment — A vital compound. so powerful, it’s reported to repair… even regrow damaged brain cells. In layman’s terms — Bring back your memory power. And leave you feeling more focused and clear-headed than you have in years!

Dr. Shinitsky explains this phenomenon in simple terms; “Science has shown when your brain nutrient levels drop, you can start to experience memory problems and overall mental fatigue. Your ability to concentrate and stay focused becomes compromised. And gradually, a “mental fog” sets in. It can damage every aspect of your life”. Not only do brain cells die but they become dysfunctional as if they begin to fade away as we age.

This affects our ability to have mental clarity and focus and impacts our ability to remember things that were easy for us to do in our 20’s and 30’s.

Scientists think the biggest cause of brain deterioration in older people is the decreased functioning of membranes and molecules that surround the brain cells.

These really are the transmitters that connect the tissues or the brain cells to one another that help us with our sharp memory, clear thinking and mental focus, even our powers to reason well. “When we are in our 20’s” according to Dr. Shinitzky “our body produces key substances like phosphatidylserine and phosphatidic acid”…unfortunately they are believed to be critical essential nutrients that just fade away with age, much like our memories often do leading to further mental deterioration.

As we get older it becomes more frustrating as there is little comfort when you forget names… misplace your keys…or just feel “a little confused”. And even though your foggy memory gets laughed off as just another “senior moment,” it’s not very funny when it keeps happening to you.

Newly elected take seats on Lockport City Council Councilman Peter Colarelli says goodbye

By SARWAT S. AHMAD Shaw Media correspondent LOCKPORT – As Lockport Councilman Peter Colarelli said goodbye Wednesday night, newly elected City Council members took their oaths to serve the city.

Incumbent Third Ward Alderman Jason VanderMeer and newcomers Joanne Bartelsen, J.R. Gillogly and Jim Petrakos were sworn into office before taking their seats

at the first City Council meeting of the new fiscal year.

Petrakos in April won the First Ward seat held by Colarelli, who decided not to run this year for personal reasons.

Colarelli endorsed Petrakos during the election.

Bartelsen defeated Fourth Ward incumbent Denise Marynowski, and Gillogly defeated Second Ward incumbent Kelly Turner. Both Turner and Marynowski were not present Wednesday.

Mayor Steven Streit awarded Colarelli with a plaque to thank him for his service before Colarelli made his farewell remarks.

“When you get elected to office, it’s a blessing,” Colarelli said. “It adds so much more to your life than you have to sac-

rifice. My close contact with the people in the city drove my desire to serve.”

Colarelli, a former Lockport police officer, was elected in 2007 and served under two other mayors besides Streit – Tim Murphy and Dev Trivedi.

He is leaving to spend more time with his wife and 10 kids, he said.

Water connection survey planned

Separately, the new City Council approved a two-year contract with CCRA Professional Services to implement a state-mandated water survey program to track potential backflow that may contaminate the city’s water supply.

The Illinois Environmental

Protection Agency requires all municipalities conduct water connection surveys for all consumers every three to five years, Public Works Director Joe Findlay said.

CCRA will implement and run a survey and tracking program for Lockport at a cost of $2 per water connection. Lockport has about 10,000 water consumers, Findlay said.

Residents who receive water bills will need to take an online survey that will be processed by the system and placed in the Lockport database. The information will be assessed and ranked on severity or the amount of corrective action needed, according to Wyatt Mach, IT technician for CCRA. Residents can take the

survey on CCRA’s website by clicking on a link on the Lockport website.

It is normal for about three notices to go out to consumers as reminders that it is necessary to take the survey, Mach said. A notice also will be placed in local newspapers.

The state mandates that the water of any consumer who fails to take the survey be turned off, but this is highly unusual, he said.

Most municipalities do not turn off the water, but send out officials to help the resident complete the survey, he said.

While the contract was approved by the council, Streit said he was “unhappy because this is another one of those unfunded mandates.”

Lemont High School student holds art show for Word for Hope charity

By DAN FARNHAM dfarnham@shawmedia.com LEMONT – Having done mission work in Africa, Lemont High School senior Jorie Dybcio has seen the struggles African children go through in order to get an education.

In an effort to help, Dybcio started a charity called Word for Hope, which raises money to send African children to school. For her latest fundraising effort, she organized a student art exhibit to be held at the Lemont High School Commons Annex, 800 Porter St. “I thought an art show would be a good way to raise funds for the organization, as well as raise awareness for artists in the area,” she said.

Students can view the show through Monday, but the main event for the public is from 2:45 to 5 p.m. Friday.

Most of the artwork will be by Lemont High School students, with additional pieces by some of Dybcio’s friends from other schools.

There also will be pieces from Haitian artists, which were donated by the One Mission Society.

Dybcio said art is one of

them [for the show],” she said.

She said organizing this fundraiser was easier than others she has organized because people are eager to participate.

To raise money, she will be asking for a $5 donation to attend the reception, as well as holding a bake sale.

Dybcio said it does not take much money to help. According to Dybcio, it costs only $35 Jorie Dybcio to pay for a year of schooling Lemont High School senior for one student, she said.

She said a friend recently her biggest passions and she raised $500, which was able to has a lot of friends who are pay for a full year of schoolartists who will participate in ing for six students, as well as text books and school supthe show.

“I’m actually not the best plies for the entire school.

“I hope to raise a little artist, but I’m able to do a few paintings, so I might donate more than that,” she said.

“I thought an art show would be a good way to raise funds for the organization, as well as raise awareness for artists in the area.”

the National Day of Prayer Task Force. U.S. President Barack Obama noted in his proclamation Wednesday that prayer is an “important expression of faith” that provides guidance and offers solace.

Through prayer, people find the strength to help others, he said.

Many people nationwide commit to prayer, with more than 55 percent of people saying they pray every day. Twenty-three percent said they pray weekly or monthly, according to a 2013 Pew Research Center survey.

In her prayer, Davies encouraged the audience to open their hearts and realize everyone – no matter their circumstances – is a child of God. “Lord, help us seek not to be consoled but to console, and not to be understood but to understand,” she said.

“We thank you for this opportunity that we can gather as one body and pray,” Casillas said.

One pastor sang her prayer.

Glenda McCullum, Kingdom Builders International senior pastor, sang at the church twice. Many people stood up in response and reached out with their hands.

McCullum said people tend to get caught up in the music, but the lyrics are important.

She said she likes to sing about who God is and his works.

“When you can find lyrics that are heartfelt, those are the ones I see. … I put my whole life into the songs I sing,” she said.

“I love the gift of song God has given me. … It’s blessing the hearts of others,” she later added. “I realize gifts are not for myself, but used for others.”

CADILLAC

By Chad Kodiak (A Proud Son) When my Dad’s prostate cancer progressed into his bones and the oncologist told him there was nothing else he could do, we felt defeated.

My Dad was a pharmacist and he spent his whole life taking care of other people (he worked at the pharmacy he founded the day before he was hospitalized). When the physicians and nurses went on to explain that Dad would have to be placed on hospice our defeat plummeted into hopelessness.

What do you mean there is nothing else that can be done?

I, like my Dad, am a pharmacist, also. I know about experimental drugs, I know about off label treatments, I’ve witnessed miracles, many in our own patients.

During our research of different hospice options, a member of the Joliet Area Community Hospice team came to the hospital to talk to my whole family, my mom, my sister, my brother and each of our significant others. He told

us a story about a woman who was placed in hospice and lived in the hospice home.

While receiving palliative care she started to recover.

She recovered to the point where she was discharged from hospice care and comes back to the hospice home to volunteer from time to time!

This was the story we needed to hear. This restored our hope.

Although my Dad’s story doesn’t end the way the woman in the story’s does, we found that upbeat attitude throughout the hospice organization. Our time there was treasured and my father was treated like solid gold.

There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t miss him, but it makes me smile to know that he was pain free and comfortable in his last days on this earth.

Scavenger Hunt Illinois Sen. Terry Link, D-Waukegan, speaks May 8, 2013, at the Illinois State Capitol in Springfield. Link says he’s working with legislative leaders, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner to draft a proposal Rauner would be willing to sign to create a Chicago-owned casino.

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois lawmakers are trying to negotiate a deal to open a Chicago-owned casino and expand gambling elsewhere in the state, and they believe there’s a clearer path for the proposal to become law than there’s been in years.

Sen. Terry Link said he’s working with legislative leaders, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner to draft a proposal that Rauner would be willing to sign. The Waukegan Democrat said he’s hoping to introduce a bill “very soon.”

Rauner has indicated he’s more open to expanding gambling than his predecessor, Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn, who twice vetoed casino bills.

Rauner also has replaced Quinn’s pick to lead the Illinois Gaming Board, who actively worked to derail previous proposals.

But one likely sticking point is how revenue from a Chicago casino would be divided between the city and the state.

Having a new Republican governor at the table also means changes must be made to previous gambling proposals. Those plans also called for slot machines at horse racing tracks and casinos in Rockford, Lake County, Vermilion Coun-

ty and Chicago’s south suburbs.

“You have a different governor who has different viewpoints of something, so I think that’s playing into the scenario,” Link said. “In the past we tried to get things in there that Gov. Quinn would be for.

Now we’ve got to get things in there that Gov. Rauner will be pleased with.”

Link declined to say what those changes might be, and Rauner spokesman Mike Schrimpf wouldn’t comment beyond the governor’s recent statements that he’s “very open” to considering a Chicago casino.

Emanuel wants Chicago to keep much of the profits from a casino, minus some taxes paid to the state, to help cover soaring city pension costs. Chicago has the worst-funded pension system of any major U.S. city, and is facing a nearly $600 million increase in its payment to its funds next year.

But Illinois has serious money troubles of its own, with a roughly $6 billion deficit in the budget that begins July 1, and Rauner has signaled he’s not likely to support a plan that benefits Chicago at the expense of the rest of the state.

“I want to make sure that it’s good for all the taxpayers and all the citizens, both of Chicago and the state of Illinois when we have that discussion,” he said earlier this week.

U of Illinois wants to separate credit rating from state

SPRINGFIELD – A University of Illinois financial official says the state’s low credit ratings are dragging down the university’s credit and he wants to have the two separated.

Walter Knorr is the university’s chief financial officer. He said during a financial update at a meeting of university trustees Thursday that he has begun talks with Moody’s Investors Service about “decoupling” the state school’s credit rating from the state government’s rating.

Knorr said “we’re really dragging the anchor with the state of Illinois.”

Knorr said Moody’s gives the university an AA rating with a negative outlook that he believes should be higher. AAA is the highest rating and lowers borrowing costs.

American becomes 2nd U.S. airline to use Boeing’s 787

FORT WORTH, Texas – American has joined the list of airlines flying the Boeing 787 jet, which it hopes will appeal to passengers and open new, profitable international routes.

Passengers boarded at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport on Thursday morning for American’s debut flight of a 787 to Chicago. Domestic service is just a warm-up. Next month, American will begin using 787s on flights to Beijing, Buenos Aires and Shanghai and will add Tokyo in August.

American joins United as the only U.S. airlines using the plane, which Boeing calls the Dreamliner.

Chicago Teachers Union files complaint against district

CHICAGO – The Chicago Teachers Union has filed an unfair labor practices complaint with the state labor relations board against the Chicago Board of Education.

The union is accusing the board of bad-faith bargaining and refusing to engage in mediation. The two sides are negotiating a new contract.

Chicago Public Schools interim chief Jesse Ruiz said the district hasn’t had a chance to review the complaint but looks forward to continuing contract talks.

The union’s contract expires June 30.

Teachers recently said the board wants them to pay the full amount of their pension contributions. They say that would amount to a 7 percent pay cut. The district says Chicago schools face a $1.1 billion deficit and a $700 million pension obligation this year.

Food hub in DeKalb County would help farmers connect

DEKALB – Organizers in DeKalb County are planning a packing and distribution center for fresh produce grown by local farmers. The DeKalb Daily Chronicle reports the facility would be known as a “food hub,” and it would be the first in northern Illinois.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture says such food hubs help small farmers connect with

retailers and gain access to new markets.

DeKalb County Community Gardens Executive Director Dan Kenney said more research is needed to determine how many farmers would participate. Kenney said many local vegetable growers are interested.

Kenney said supporters include the city of DeKalb, DeKalb County Economic Development Corporation and the Center for Governmental Studies at Northern Illinois University.

NIU students would do a feasibility study and create a business plan.

Lawyer: Man to plead guilty to setting radar facility fire

CHICAGO – A suburban Chicago contractor accused of setting fire to a radar facility and

disrupting air traffic throughout the U.S. will plead guilty, his attorney said Thursday after the man appeared in court for arraignment.

A plea agreement with prosecutors is being negotiated, with the goal being having Brian Howard do his time in a federal prison offering mental health treatment, defense attorney Ronald Safer said. He said Howard intends to plead guilty on June 4. Howard, 37, of Naperville has been held without bail in Kankakee County Jail since his arrest.

A number of his relatives attended Thursday’s hearing before U.S. Magistrate Judge Michael Mason. The bearded Howard mouthed, “Hi, Mom,” as he was being led from the courtroom afterward.

NATION BRIEFS Hazy view of U.S. economy “You’ve got a lot of scientific ahead of April jobs report stuff, a lot of police action,

WASHINGTON – When the government reports Friday on job growth during April, it could help clarify an increasingly nagging question: Just how strong is the U.S. economy?

The picture has grown hazier of late. Employers added only 126,000 jobs in March, ending a yearlong streak of monthly gains above 200,000. For April, economists predict a rebound to 222,500 added jobs.

Yet weaknesses have emerged in reports showing falling worker productivity, a slowdown in exports, modest consumer spending and sluggish overall economic expansion.

Since the year began, the U.S. economy has sent signals of both potential strength and potentially debilitating weakness. Lower oil prices have forced cutbacks at energy companies and the manufacturers supplying them.

The stronger dollar has squashed export growth and held down corporate profits. Worker pay, a chronic drag on U.S. growth, has yet to rise significantly for many.

Facts, emotion take turns at theater shooter trial CENTENNIAL, Colo. – A clear pattern is emerging in the murder trial of Colorado movie theater shooter James Holmes.

Prosecutors are weaving dry facts into a powerful story, by alternating technical testimony with the graphic and emotional recollections of survivors.

things that can be very technical,” said Karen Steinhauser, a Denver defense attorney and former prosecutor. “What prosecutors are trying to do is make sure the emotional piece is played all the way through.”

Experts say this storytelling strategy could pay off months later, when jurors begin deliberating. The prosecution wants them to believe two things: That Holmes was sane when he killed 12 people and injured 70, and that the pain and suffering he caused requires a guilty verdict.

Study: Shots for measles may have other benefits

LOS ANGELES – A new study suggests the measles shot comes with a bonus: By preventing that disease, the vaccine also may help your body fight off other illnesses for years.

It’s long been known that contracting measles weakens the immune system for weeks or months, putting people – especially children – at increased risk for potentially fatal infection by a host of germs.

Now, scientists find this vulnerable period goes on much longer than thought, up to three years. So the benefit of avoiding measles also extends longer than was appreciated.

Researchers also found measles vaccination campaigns were followed by a drop in deaths for other infectious diseases.

Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Sen. Bob Corker (center), R-Tenn., and the committee’s ranking member, Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., speak to reporters April 14 on Capitol Hill in Washington. Senate leaders, including Corker, say the bill approved Thursday gives Congress the best chance to weigh in on the White House negotiations with Iran.

Senate OKs giving Congress review of Iran nuclear deal

By DEB RIECHMANN The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The Senate muscled its way into President Barack Obama’s talks to curb Iran’s nuclear program, overwhelmingly backing legislation Thursday that would let Congress review and possibly reject any final deal with Tehran.

The vote was 98-1 for the bipartisan bill that would give Congress a say on what could be a historic accord that the United States and five other nations are trying to finalize with Iran. Under the agreement, Iran would roll back its nuclear program in exchange for relief from crippling economy penalties.

The lone “no” vote came from freshman Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., who wants Obama to submit any agreement to the Senate as a treaty.

Under the Constitution, that would require approval of two-thirds of the Senate.

The House is expected to vote next week on the measure.

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said in a statement moments after the vote that the “goal is to stop a bad agreement that could pave the way to a nuclear-armed Iran, set off a regional nuclear arms race, and strengthen and legitimize the government of Iran.”

White House spokesman Eric Shultz said Obama would sign the bill in its current form. But the spokesman added that Obama has made it clear that if amendments are added by the House “that would endanger a deal coming together that prevented Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, that we’d oppose it.”

Even if Congress rejects his final nuclear deal with Tehran, however, Obama could use his executive pen to offer a hefty portion of sanctions relief on his own. He could take unilateral actions that – when coupled with European and U.N. sanctions relief – would allow a deal to be implemented.

The U.S. and other nations

negotiating with Tehran have long suspected that Iran’s nuclear program is secretly aimed at atomic weapons capability. Tehran insists the program is entirely devoted to civilian purposes.

The talks resume next week in Vienna, with a target date of June 30 for a final agreement.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said the bill “offers the best chance for our constituents through the Congress they elect to weigh in on the White House negotiations with Iran.”

Added Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee: “No bill. No review.”

The legislation would bar Obama from waiving congressional sanctions for at least 30 days while lawmakers examine any final deal.

The bill would stipulate that if senators disapprove of the deal, Obama would lose his current power to waive certain economic penalties Congress has imposed on Iran.

Conservatives strong in U.K. vote

By JILL LAWLESS and DANICA KIRKA The Associated Press LONDON – Prime Minister David Cameron’s Conservative Party fared much better than expected in parliamentary elections Thursday, an exit poll projected, suggesting it is within touching distance of forming a new government.

The opposition Labour Party of Ed Miliband took a beating, according to the poll, much of it because of the rise of the separatist Scottish National Party. The poll said the SNP would take all but one of the 59 seats in Scotland, most of them from Labour.

Cameron’s coalition partner, the Liberal Democrat Party, was expected to lose most of its seats.

The exit poll, based on interviews with 22,000 voters, differed strongly from opinion polls conducted during the month-long election campaign, which had put the Conservatives and Labour neckand-neck with about a third of the vote share each.

Media members photograph a ballot box being emptied to be counted Thursday for the Glasgow constituencies in Glasgow, Scotland.

London Mayor Boris Johnson, who is running for a seat in Parliament as a Conservative, said that if the poll was accurate “then obviously, it’s a very, very clear victory for the Conservatives and a very bad night for Labour.”

Political leaders warned against jumping to conclusions before the actual results are in, and some expressed skepticism about the poll.

“I have to say it just doesn’t feel right,” said long-

time Labour adviser Alistair Campbell.

The survey was conducted by pollsters GfK and Ipsos MORI for Britain’s broadcasters and released as polling stations closed.

Results began coming in within an hour of polls closing. The seat of Houghton and Sunderland South in northeast England was the first to complete the traditional election-night ritual: Votes in each of the 650 constituencies

are counted by hand and the candidates – each wearing a bright rosette in the color of their party – line up onstage as a returning officer reads out the results. It went to Labour, as expected.

The exit poll projected that the Conservatives would get 316 seats – up from 302 and far more than had been predicted – and Labour 239, down from 256. The Liberal Democrats would shrink from 56 seats to 10, while the Scottish nationalists would grow from six to 58, all but one of Scotland’s seats.

SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon tweeted that supporters should “treat the exit poll with HUGE caution. I’m hoping for a good night but I think 58 seats is unlikely!”

Former Liberal Democrat leader Paddy Ashdown was equally skeptical of the poll: “I’ll bet you my hat, eaten on your program, that it is wrong,” he told the BBC. If the exit poll is accurate, the Conservative Party would be in a commanding position to form the next government by seeking partners from smaller parties.

Chinese banks haven for Web counterfeits

By ERIKA KINETZ The Associated Press SHANGHAI – Kim Sbarcea knew exactly what she wanted. She typed “Tiffany Elsa Peretti mesh earrings” into Google and scrolled through impeccable photos of the delicate $450 diamond-shaped earrings until she chanced upon a pair for – deal of deals! – $32.

The website, tiffany-outletsale.com, looked legit, and Sbarcea assumed Tiffany & Co. wouldn’t let an unauthorized site use its name. Besides, she could pay by credit card.

She hit the buy button.

In that instant, on a Saturday morning in 2011, Sbarcea’s $32 was sucked from the living room of her house in Christchurch, New Zealand, into the global counterfeiting market. The money trail left by counterfeiters almost always leads to China, where banks have emerged as key

Counterfeit branded bags appear on display March 11, 2015, in a room hidden from the public area of a popular shopping mall in Beijing. conduits in an illegal industry that by one estimate is expected to be worth $1.8 trillion this year.

At least three prominent Chinese banks serve as safe havens for counterfeiters, who use them to process credit card payments for

fakes or move their money around the globe, The Associated Press has found. A review of hundreds of pages of court documents from cases in the United States and China – along with interviews with lawyers, investigators, government officials and industry representatives – shows that a lack of legal cooperation between the West and China is allowing counterfeiters to use Chinese banks as financial shelters.

Recent attempts by U.S. and European companies to follow counterfeiters’ money into China have hit a wall, frustrating efforts to deal a more decisive blow to the global trade in fakes, which has endured despite years of raids.

Five lawsuits filed in the U.S. against counterfeiters reveal a pattern to how they use Chinese banks to move money beyond the reach of U.S. law enforcement. Counterfeiters sold fakes online in

the U.S., using credit cards or PayPal to process payments. Then, records show, they transferred millions of dollars in illicit earnings to accounts at two of China’s largest state-owned banks, the Bank of China and the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China – as well as the smaller China Merchants Bank.

The banks do not dispute that the accused counterfeiters held accounts at their branches, but they refuse to comply with U.S. court orders to disclose information or freeze the funds, saying that would violate Chinese bank secrecy laws. They said they do not support counterfeiting, have broken no laws and are caught in a jurisdictional dispute between China and the U.S. Tiffany & Co. seeks $58.5 million in damages in a New York federal court from an online counterfeiting ring that spans three continents.

After heavy storms, more are predicted

By SEAN MURPHY The Associated Press OKLAHOMA CITY – Communities in several southern Plains states set to work cleaning up Thursday after a night of storms that spawned 51 tornadoes, assessing the damage under sunny skies but with the threat of even worse weather on the horizon.

The storms Wednesday and early Thursday strafed northern Texas, Nebraska and Kansas but reserved their worst for the Oklahoma City area, where at least a dozen people were injured in a trailer park and where a 43-year-old woman was killed. Skylyna Stewart apparently took cover in an underground storm shelter and drowned when it was deluged by floodwater, police said.

While residents assessed the damage early Thursday afternoon, a large cluster of thunderstorms was developing in western Oklahoma that was expected to bring hail and damaging winds to the state. Meanwhile, storms that could produce more powerful tornadoes could rake the Plains on Friday and Saturday, said meteorologist John Hart of the Storm Prediction Center in Norman.

“The conditions are right; it’s the right time of year,” Hart said. “There are just a lot of things that make you think over the next three days there will probably be big tornadoes across the southern Plains.”

An area covering southern Kansas, western Oklahoma and parts of North Texas would likely bear the brunt of the storms Friday and Saturday.

The likelihood of another round of storms so soon left some residents wondering whether they should wait to begin cleaning up.

Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin declared a state of emergency for 12 central counties.

The hardest hit appeared to be the Bridge Creek, about 30 miles southwest of Oklahoma City, where 25 homes were destroyed.

GIRLS BADMINTON LOCKPORT SECTIONAL

Lockport qualifies six, wins 3rd straight sectional

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com LOCKPORT – With two individuals and a doubles team as the lone returning state qualifiers in badminton at Thursday’s Lockport Sectional, it was a good bet the host Porters would again claim top honors.

But the most important thing to veteran Porters coach Denise Hadley was to see her squad prepare for competition at next weekend’s state finals at EIU-Charleston by competing at a high level in the six-team sectional.

And Lockport’s players did just that, claiming the top two spots in singles play and first- and third-place finishes in doubles as they defeated Sandburg, 17.5-10.5, for the sectional title.

It’s the third straight year that the Porters won a sectional championship and the third year in a row they qualified two singles players and two doubles for state.

Junior Jessica Miller beat classmate Haley Egelhof for the title in singles, while seniors Lauren Hueckstaedt and Jen Inczauskis won top honors in doubles, and seniors Deanna Cooper and Sarah Heimberg were third.

Egelhof and Miller qualified in singles last year, as did the doubles team of Inczauskis and Hueckstaedt.

Hadley, in her 31st year at Lockport, is tied for second for most sectional titles with 16, a total equaled on Thursday by Downers Grove North’s Anthony Calderone.

Former Andrew coach Terry TerHaar won 24 sectionals during his career.

“Jessica and Haley practice great together and they’re really good friends and really compete with each other,” Hadley said. “And I have one more year of that, so I’m happy about that. They’re just fun to be around or of course otherwise I wouldn’t do it.

“I like at the sectional when the girls play at the top of their games, and that’s what they looked like tonight.

We were seeded high, but they all still had some butterflies. But once we get to state,

The singles title match turned into one of the tightest meetings yet between the Porters teammates as Miller edged Egelhof, 22-20, 18-21, 2118.

“It’s never been that close before,” Miller said. “It’s ei-

ther I beat her by a lot or she beats me by a lot. But the pressure was off, and we were laughing the whole time. Having the experience helps a lot because we know how to handle the pressure. Last year, it was just fun to go to state, but this year we want to accomplish things.”

Egelhof was pleased with the way that she and her teammates performed at the meet.

“It was a great day,” Egelhof said. “Obviously, we all played our best, and that was the best games that we’d played this season in general. Everything about it was wonderful. We had three out of four come back this year, so that gave us a more confidence and less nerves. This group of girls is so close, and we connect with each other and all work as a team.”

In the doubles title match, Hueckstaedt and Inczauskis captured a 21-18, 21-3 victory over Sandburg’s Megan Higgins and Reilly Scanlon.

“It’s exciting knowing that everyone on our team is going to state,” Hueckstaedt said. “I feel like Jen and I have gotten to know each other better because last year we were first-time partners together.

It’s a lot more fun this year because we know what each other is doing and we laugh a

lot. We’re all super close with each other and joke all of the time.”

Inczauskis is looking forward to her second state trip with five other Porters.

“It’s nice to know that we won and we’re going to state again,” Inczauskis said.

“We’re more experienced and know what we’re going up against and want to make it the second day. It helps that we’ve been partners for two years and we know how to help each other.”

In the third-place match in doubles, Heimberg and Cooper won, 21-15, 21-16, over Lincoln-Way North’s initial qualifiers, Allison Gerk and Ashley Pop. Sandburg’s Emily Tunney beat teammate Katie Schroeder for third place in singles.

Plainfield North beat Lincoln-Way North, 6-5.5, for third but failed to get any qualifiers.

Plainfield South (3) and Plainfield Central (0.5) also competed.

VIEWS Dick Goss

• Friday, May 8, 2015

Local baseball fans are proud of the numerous outstanding baseball players, including scores of major leaguers, who have come from the Joliet area.

With an independent professional team in town – the Slammers – the question sometime is raised as to why more local guys are not on their roster. The argument is that if there were more local players wearing Slammers’ jerseys, attendance would increase.

The criticism is unfair because there are all sorts of factors that go into building a roster. The stars have to align. And the bottom line is, you are out to get the best players you possibly can.

Good players come from everywhere.

Meanwhile, right-handed pitcher Jake Butler from Minooka and the University of St Francis is bidding to start the season in the Slammers’ starting rotation. Manager Jeff Isom has seven cuts to make by Sunday and another four by the Frontier League opening day Thursday, when the Slammers visit Florence.

While Butler’s spot on the roster is not guaranteed, he appears well on his way to earning a spot. Isom considered his three-inning stint against Normal in Wednesday’s exhibition game a plus, even though he allowed three walks.

“Butler got into trouble, and he pitched himself out of it,” Isom said. “I wanted to see how he would do with guys in scoring position, and he did a nice job. He helped his cause. He is moving up on our list of pitchers.”

“I’m looking forward to pitching here,” Butler said.

“It’s been awhile since I pitched in a real game.”

Butler was Detroit’s 29th-round draft pick out of St. Francis in June and was assigned to the Gulf Coast League, but an injury sidelined him.

“I had an elbow injury, and they shut me down,” But-

This spring, I had some tendinitis, and they released me. It would have been nice if I had been healthy and had a chance to pitch, but there’s nothing I can do about that now.”

Isom was on the phone, contacting Butler “a couple of days after I got released,” he said. “He asked me if I wanted to keep playing. It’s nice to be playing at home.”

Although he grew up in the vicinity of Silver Cross Field, Butler has not seen much of the Frontier League.

“I’ve been away [playing ball] the last three summers,” he said. “But from what I have seen, this looks like a pretty good league.”

Butler throws three pitches – a fastball, curve and split-change.

“I’ve been working on all of them,” he said. “I used the change a lot more [Wednesday]. I’m trying to get more consistent with it.”

From Butler’s perspective,

On the Web For coverage of Thursday night’s Lewis’ semifinal match against Penn State in the NCAA men’s volleyball championships, visit TheHerald-News.com.

the hope is that pitching for the Slammers leads to another shot at affiliated ball sometime down the road. The dream of pitching in the big leagues never dies.

Butler was a high school classmate and teammate of former first-round draft pick Mike Foltynewicz, who made his second major league start and earned his second victory for Atlanta on Wednesday night as the Braves beat Philadelphia. He worked five

strong innings before tiring in the sixth.

When Foltynewicz starting for the Braves was mentioned, Butler smiled and said, “That’s pretty cool.”

So is having a local guy pitching for the Slammers.

Here’s hoping this stint leads to bigger and better things.

Isom, a former professional pitcher, will tell anyone willing to listen that a primary objective of the Slammers is to get as many players as possible signed by major league organizations.

JJC HOSTING TOURNEY

The Slammers are home for an exhibition game at 7:05 p.m. Friday against Windy City. There also is more base-

ball in the offing this weekend for local fans to enjoy, assuming the weatherman cooperates.

Joliet Junior College is the No. 1 seed in the Region IV Tournament and will host one of the two three-team sectionals scheduled Saturday and Sunday.

Harper, the No. 4 seed, will play the Rock Valley/ Milwaukee winner at 9 a.m.

Saturday. JJC will face Harper at noon and the Rock Valley/Milwaukee winner at 3 p.m.

Assuming one team finishes Saturday with a 2-0 record, the championship game will begin at noon Sunday, with an “if necessary” game to follow immediately.

DuPage is the No. 2 seed and will host the other threeteam sectional. The Region IV championship series, which will determine the automatic bid to the Division III World Series, is next weekend.

BASEBALL: LINCOLN-WAY EAST 8, JOLIET CENTRAL 6

Joliet Central comeback falls short vs. LWE

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – For a while during Thursday afternoon’s SouthWest Suburban Blue matchup at Joliet Central, Lincoln-Way East baseball had the mojo going.

The Griffins were running the bases aggressively, getting timely hits and generally taking advantage of the Steelmen’s generosity. The result was an 8-0 lead midway through the fourth inning.

Then the switch flipped.

For the rest of the afternoon, East did little offensively, and Central made some noise. The Steelmen came up short, 8-6, but not before they had the goahead run at the plate in the bottom of the sixth inning and the tying run at bat in the bottom of the seventh.

“We were playing aggressively for a while, and then we stopped after four innings,” East coach Paul Babcock said.

“We were up, 8-0, and had the bases juiced [in the fourth inning] and left them that way.

“We could have put it away right there. We’ve got to be better than that.”

Sophomore right-hander Jake Pomykalski singled home two runs to give the Griffins (10-13, 3-6) their 8-0 lead and was having his way with the Steelmen’s lineup through three innings. But in the bottom of the fourth, Central (7-17, 3-6) rallied to get back within 8-3.

Junior right-hander Tyler Lawson, the Steelmen’s most dependable pitcher of late, was removed during the top of the fourth and replaced with Juan Cisneros. He faced six batters before Jose Juan Martinez took over, still in the fourth inning.

Martinez, who wound up working 3 1⁄ 3 innings and allowing one hit and no runs, helped fuel Central’s rally in the bottom of the fourth with

“A lot of teams, when they’re down 8-0, might not come back, but this at least shows our resiliency.”

Kevin Fitzgerald Joliet Central baseball coach a double. The Steelmen had a chance to get closer in the fifth, but a double play got in the way.

In the sixth, they scored twice and left the bases loaded as East used three pitchers in the inning.

“It was ugly. We had way too many mistakes early,” Central coach Kevin Fitzgerald said. “You can’t do that against a team like [East].

Leadoff walks, hitting guys with pitches, dropped balls in the field, you name it. And, their kid [Pomykalski] had us

off balance for three innings.

You have to hit for seven innings, not three or four, to win games in this conference.”

Central got within 8-6 in the bottom of the seventh when Luke DeBenedetti doubled and Austin Hughes singled.

“A lot of teams, when they’re down 8-0, might not come back, but this at least shows our resiliency,” Fitzgerald said. “We’re just got to start hitting sooner.”

Fitzgerald said he thought Lawson “pitched OK. He should have been out of innings early, but we made too many defensive mistakes behind him.”

DeBenedetti had two doubles and a sacrifice fly, and Hughes also doubled and drove in a pair of runs for the Steelmen. Freddy Hernandez and Jontel McNair each had a hit and an RBI. Designated hitter/outfielder Bryan Smith went 1 for 3

with a walk for the Steelmen.

He just returned recently from a finger injury, and Fitzgerald said his presence in the 2-hole changes the feel of Central’s entire lineup.

“To have him back is huge for us,” Fitzgerald said. “Our lineup is more potent and more confident with him in it.

“He comes to the field and has fun. He plays to his strengths. That’s important because it’s hard to fix weaknesses during the season.”

East had all of its 10 hits in the first four innings. Kenny Alexa, Tyler Krause and Hunter Smith had two hits.

Brandon Bauer tripled to deep center field. In addition to Pomykalski’s two RBIs, Alexa, Brandon Skopic, Mitch Matuszewski and Krause all knocked in runs.

Rory Mulvihilll and Ryan O’Reilly both relieved in the tense sixth inning for the Griffins. O’Reilly finished up to earn the save.

“This was are plan, run together and go first and second,” Callahan said. “With 300 to go in the 1,600, I saw Rachael (Lau) look around, and I knew we had a chance.”

“I was worried a little in both races, but we just ran our races, and it worked out,” Tutt said.

Minooka also received a victory in the shot put, as sophomore Danielle Stubner had a toss of 34-3.

“This was one heck of an effort by our team,” Minooka coach Kevin Gummerson said.

“Credit Oswego East. They have a good team, but we battled and came up a little short.

Ashleigh (Wilson) looked as good as I have ever seen her.

All of our kids performed well.

This is a great stepping stone for this team as we get ready for next week’s sectionals.”

Plainfield South came away

with three conference titles as Payton Myers won the discus (123 feet, 5 inches), Lenae Ludy the high jump (5-1) and the 4x800 relay of Greta Carlberg, Lexi Grigg, Stephanie Cruz and Daija Brown clocked a 9:58.78.

Brown, a freshman, also was second in the 400 (58.74) and was a member of the second-place 4x400 relay.

“I’m pretty happy with our performance,” South coach Janeen Carlberg said. “The heat got to Daija after the relay (4x800), so we thought it best to hold her out of the open 800.

She came back strong in the 400 and 4x400.

“Payton’s win in the discus was really exciting to see. That type of performance has been there all season, and it was a good time to come up big.”

1) and the 4x800 relay of Valerie Som, Megan Patton, Rachael Lau and Brittany Drag (9:59.75).

“Fifth place is where I thought we would be,” North coach Tammy Gummerson said. “We competed well. Our 4x800 relay set a school record in finishing second. Rachael (Lau) ran very well on the relay and came within 20 meters of winning the 1,600.”

PLAINFIELD – There will not be a repeat champion.

Minooka, which entered Thursday’s Southwest Prairie Conference Girls Track Meet at Plainfield South as the defending champion, finished second to Oswego East.

East finished with 124 points to Minooka’s 114. Oswego was third with 93, followed

by Plainfield South 78, Plainfield North 54, Plainfield East 50, Plainfield Central 25 and Romeoville 20.

Minooka had strong performances in the sprints and distance events, garnering 80 points in six individual events.

Senior sprinter Ashleigh Wilson set a school record in the 400-meter dash (56.02 seconds) and placed second in the 100 (13.20) and 200 (26.19).

“I knew this was my last conference meet, and I wanted to run well,” said Wilson, who signed this week with Illinois

State University. “The 400 was fun. I just went out fast and kept going. I felt the wind in the 200, and the 400 probably caught up with me a little. This is a team meet, and we needed all the points we could get.”

The Indians swept the top two places in the 800, 1,600 and 3,200. Freshman Emily Shelton won the 3,200 (11:45.56) and was followed by junior Morgan Crouch (12:00.79).

“I was a little afraid of going out too fast,” Crouch said.

“But then I was in sixth, and that was not the plan; I got to second because we needed to go one-two.”

The sophomore tandem of MacKenzie Callahan and Ashley Tutt finished first and second in the 800 and 1,600. They took control early in the 800 and posted times of 2:18.21 and 2:21.84, respectively.

The 1,600 wasn’t as easy.

North’s sophomore Rachael Lau set a blistering pace early and looked in total control until Callahan and Tutt passed

CHASING NFL DREAM

Morris’ Henry in Atlanta for rookie mini-camp

Kevin Henry, a Morris graduate, prepares to throw a block for the Central Michigan football team.

Kevin Henry has had quite a year. And it’s not over. In fact, it may be starting.

He started all 13 games at right tackle for the Central Michigan football team in the fall, including the Bahamas Bowl. He also graduated in December.

The highlight is right around the corner.

Henry, a 2010 Morris graduate, is in Atlanta taking part in the Falcons’ rookie mini-camp in the hopes of making that team.

Henry waited during last week’s NFL Draft in Chicago for his name to be called, but it wasn’t.

He was prepared for that contingency, however.

“I was hearing a lot of different things before the draft,” Henry said. “I might get drafted, I might not get drafted, someone might sign me right away as an undrafted free agent. I might have to go to rookie camp. There are a lot of different routes that people take to get to the NFL. I have accepted that this is my route, and I am going to work as hard as I can to get there.

“About an hour after the draft was over, my agent called and said I was going to Atlan-

ta’s mini-camp. I know someone would meet me at the baggage claim. After that, I will do whatever they tell me to.”

One thing Henry will have going for him is he will not be worried about his schoolwork.

He graduated from Central Michigan in December with a bachelor’s degree in business administration and general management. Thus, his time has been spent getting ready to take his shot at the NFL. “I’d like to play football for as long as I possibly can,” he said. “I was out in New Jersey working out for my pro day for a while, and I had a pretty good pro day. That got my foot in the door as far as pro teams knowing about me.

“Since then, I have been at school, and a lot of us have been training together. We had one player get drafted, two sign as free agents, and there are six of us going to rookie camps. It’s been good to have a group to work out with because we push each other. If you’re working out alone, you might think you are pushing yourself, but you never really know. When there are others there, you know they will push you every single day.”

No matter what happens, at least one friendly face was waiting for Henry. Mike Kinville, who started at tight end for the

Chippewas and was Henry’s roommate the past five years, also was scheduled to be at the Falcons’ camp.

“Mike was my roommate for all five years here, and he played tight end right next me on the line,” Henry said. “Having played next to each other for so long, we have a good chemistry. We both know each others’ strengths and weaknesses. That may turn out to be an advantage for me since we shouldn’t miss any assignments if we are on the line together.”

If things don’t go as he hopes in Atlanta, it isn’t the end of the line.

Henry already has a trip lined up to next weekend’s San Diego Chargers rookie camp.

“My agent went through all the teams and found that the two best fits for me were Atlanta and San Diego. Everything went into consideration. Based on my strengths and weaknesses, their offensive system and style and the state of their offensive lines, those were the two best choices for me.

“The ideal would be to not have to go to San Diego at all.

I am going to Atlanta with the plan of making that team. If it doesn’t work out, then I have San Diego. But I would like to make it right away and not have to think about it anymore.”

ST. LOUIS – John Lackey gave the St. Louis Cardinals bullpen a much needed break. He made his own breaks, too.

Lackey drove in a run for the third time in his big league career and struck out 10 in 72⁄3innings, helping the Cardinals beat the Cubs, 5-1, Thursday for their ninth win in 10 games.

St. Louis relievers worked 35 innings the previous seven days.

Three pitchers failed to make it through the fifth during that stretch.

Jason Heyward singled three times with an RBI, and Peter Bourjos hit a run-scoring triple for the NL Central leaders, who took three of four from the second-place Cubs and improved their record to a major leaguebest 21-7.

Lackey had been 6 for 67 at the plate in 13 major league seasons before a two-out, opposite-field RBI double to right in the fourth. He wasn’t exactly bragging about getting the best of Jake Arrieta.

Bourjos, who had been on first base, scored for a 4-0 lead on an error by Jorge Soler who, with his back to the plate, missed the ball as he tried to glove it between his legs near the foul line.

Quintana strong but loses again as Sox fall to Tigers

CHICAGO – White Sox pitcher Jose Quintana has allowed three earned runs in his past two starts. He lost them both.

Quintana yielded two runs and four hits over five innings in the Sox’s 4-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers on Thursday.

“Three runs, two losses. That’s crazy, but every time through

you keep going,” Quintana said.

Quintana (1-3) had a season-high eight strikeouts.

“It was a short one today for him,” Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “They did a good job of kind of working him. He had a high pitch count there just getting through the fifth. It’s a tough lineup to go through.”

Kyle Lobstein allowed five hits in 72⁄3 innings, Miguel Cabrera

scored twice and drove in a run as Detroit salvaged the finale of a three-game series.

Lobstein’s only jam came in the fourth inning, when the Sox tied the score and loaded the bases with no outs. Alexei Ramirez grounded o third baseman Nick Castellanos, who stepped on the bag and threw home in time for Alex Avila to tag Jose Abreu.

OUR VIEW

Thumbs-up to taking time to serve others The Herald-News Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs-ups and thumbs-down: Thumbs-up: to all of the new members of councils and boards who have been seated in recent weeks for local municipalities, school districts, park districts, libraries and other local offices. There has been a plethora of ceremonies as both new and re-elected members are sworn into new terms.

We applaud you for stepping up, taking an interest in your community and dedicating your time to giving back. We hope you use your time on your respective board/council to do what is best for your community and be a voice for the constituents who elected you.

Thumbs-down: To people who scam unsuspecting theater-goers by offering phony tickets to events, such as those hosted by the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet. When it comes to buying tickets from third-party vendors, the buyer always must beware.

But the idea that three people can show up with tickets for the same seat to a show, as Rialto officials say has happened, is ridiculous and unfair.

Fortunately, the state is considering a bill, House Bill 3103, that would require more disclosure from ticket brokers and resellers. Such a law should better protect consumers, who would be advised to check with the original event venue on ticket availability anyway before considering an outside vendor.

The law can only go so far in protecting you, so also take some steps to protect yourself.

Thumbs-up: to Kathryn White, rector of St. Edward and Christ Episcopal Church in Joliet, for a dynamic example of fully using one’s gifts and talents to serve others.

She has, by turns, worked as a registered nurse, artist/business owner and church leader, then used those skills in her multi-generational ministry. She has shown no task is too humble to tackle, from sweeping floors to caring for the sick in Haiti. And at age 64, White also has shown that age is no barrier to accomplishment.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR One way to honor Mother’s Day

To the Editor: We all look forward to this Sunday when we celebrate Mother’s Day and the cherished bond between mother and child. Ironically, dairy cows – worldwide symbols of motherhood – never get to see their babies.

The newborn calves are torn from their mothers at birth and turned into veal cutlets, so we can drink the milk that nature designed for them. The distraught mothers bellow for days, hoping for their return.

Most cows spend their lives chained on a concrete floor, with no access to the outdoors. Each year, they are impregnated artificially to keep the milk flowing.

When their production drops, around four years of age, they are turned into hamburgers.

This Sunday, let’s honor motherhood and our natural compassion by replacing cow’s milk and other dairy products, all laden with fat and cholesterol, with delicious, healthful, cruelty-free nut or soy-based milk, cheese, yogurt and ice cream.

These are available in every

supermarket. Mother cows, and our own bodies, will be most grateful.

In praise of the community colleges

To the Editor: This is in response to the article “Community colleges accept PARCC scores for course” that was in the April 26 edition of The Herald-News concerning the community college’s newly revised admissions policing that are very positively noted by many of your loyal readers.

It is certainly awesome

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

news that many Illinois community colleges, including our wonderful Joliet Junior College, now will accept the PARCC test, ACT and Compass test for admissions to these local colleges. This new admissions policy truly will enable and assist many high school seniors in our community as they complete their college applications.

These community colleges should be praised for their positive admissions policies that are 100 percent student forward.

Greg’s Fender Benders plays ’60s rock in the Joliet area for fun, fundraising If you go

By SEAN LEARY Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – With a repurposed jalopy as a de facto band mascot, and a sound straight from ’60s AM pop radio, Greg’s Fender Benders has set out joyfully to celebrate the past while making the present more enjoyable for its fans.

The group – Greg Bucciarelli, owner of Greg’s Body Shop in Joliet, on guitar; Ziggy Mikuvzis of Shorewood on drums; Robby Jokubauskas of Lockport on lead guitar; and Jerry Travis of Plainfield on bass – formed after jam sessions more than 15 years ago in the space above Bucciarelli’s shop.

Those impromptu fits and starts playing through the catalog of hits of the late ’50s through the early ’70s led to the formation of the band. It has become a source of happiness for Bucciarelli, as well as his bandmates.

This particular group of guys has played together for five years now, Bucciarelli said.

“We’re really just all about people having fun. That’s what we’re doing on stage, and that’s what we want people seeing us to take away from it,” said Bucciarelli, 62, of Shorewood.

But it’s not just all fun and twangs for the Fender Benders. The band also has a reputation for playing benefits, such as the May 16 fundraiser for the Homeless Animal Rescue Team of Illinois NFP. Furthermore, if the band is available, Bucciarelli said, it will play anywhere for anyone.

“A lot of people contact us to play,” Bucciarelli said.

“Part of it is from people coming to see us at other benefits or at other gigs and enjoying our shows. And part of our exposure comes from the Bendermobile.”

The Bendermobile is a fun, easy way to promote the band, Bucciarelli said.

“The Bendermobile is a beat-up old ’39 Ford with graffiti spray-painted all over it and the name of the band on it, that we park outside our gigs and outside places to promote the band,” Bucciarelli said with a laugh. “It’s kind of like our signature, kind of

warning people we’re on our way.”

Bucciarelli picked up an exuberance for performance at an early age, he said.

“We were a musical family.

My father, Ernie, was an operatic tenor, and I grew up with music in my house, encouraged to pursue it,” Bucciarelli said. “I started playing piano, and that evolved into guitar,

and that turned into a passion. I was a music nut from the time I was young, and my father was my biggest fan and my biggest influence.”

That camaraderie is felt within the group – which Bucciarelli dubs a “garage band” that plays “body shop rock” – and extends toward the patrons that come out to hear it play.

In short, Bucciarelli said, members feel as if they’re 16 years old when they step onto

the stage. Their moves prove it.

“We’re always out in the audience, very interactive, very much making it so the people watching us can be a part of the show too,” Bucciarelli said.

Greg’s Fender Benders is starting to write some original music, too, Bucciarelli said, which it hopes to record soon.

That music will have the same ’60s sound, he added.

Also a part of the band, albeit unofficially, is his support system at home, Bucciarelli said.

“I am nothing without the people around me,” Bucciarelli said. “My family, my friends, my fellow band members. We’re all a tight-knit band. We’re a family. We have great fun with what we do, and we want to share that and give back to the community. It doesn’t get much better than that.”

PUZZLES CROSSWORD

SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

When leader knows, he tells partner

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Henry Morgan, a 17th-century Welsh pirate who along the Spanish Main became a multimillionaire in today’s dollars, said, “A kleptomaniac is a person who helps himself because he can’t help himself.”

In yesterday’s deal, East had to help West steal the contract from South. In today’s deal, West can return the favor – how?

South is in three no-trump. West leads a fourth-highest spade six, which is covered by the three, 10 and jack.

South immediately attacks diamonds.

What should happen after that?

North was a tad aggressive in jumping to three no-trump, but he hoped his diamond suit would provide five winners.

East does not know the strength of West’s spade suit. If West has acequeen- or ace-jack-fifth, the defenders can capture one diamond and four spades. Here, though, that does not happen. If East returns a spade after taking the diamond ace, South makes his contract.

First, West should play high-low in diamonds to show his doubleton.

Then East should hold up his diamond ace until the third round to give West a chance to make an informative discard.

If West has strong spades, he pitches a low heart or club. Here, though, he must throw a spade to warn East that that suit is not a source of tricks. Then East should shift to the heart three, which gives the defenders four more tricks to defeat the contract.

Phillip Alder is combining in May 2016 with Kalos to run a bridge and golf river cruise starting from Bordeaux, France. Details are available on Phillip’s website: www.phillipalderbridge.com. ******

Finally, they can be given as pills or even into a vein – but then these potent medicines travel throughout the body, which can cause more side effects.

• Immunotherapy uses chemicals on the scalp to deliberately produce an allergic reaction. This is usually used in the more severe cases. Why it works is uncertain; it may disarm the turnedon immune cells.

• Topical Minoxidil (Rogaine) applied to the scalp may increase hair growth. It speeds up the natural hair cycle and increases the diameter of hairs that begin to grow.

• PUVA is used in the skin condition called psoriasis and may sometimes be helpful. A substance called psoralen is either rubbed on the bald patch or given as a pill, and ultraviolet light then is shined on the bald patch. The light activates the psoralen. Once activated, it can encourage the hair follicles to make more hair.

If you have mild hair loss, you may choose to simply modify your hairstyle or wear a hairpiece until the bald area fills in.

There are a large number of treatments that have been tried to cure alopecia areata. They are too new and too untested to discuss here. You definitely should ask your primary care doctor to send you to a dermatologist (skin doctor), ideally one who has considerable experience with this fairly unusual condition.

HOROSCOPE TODAY – A positive attitude will be your secret weapon this year. Believing in yourself and your abilities will invite like-minded people to join you.

You can overcome any obstacles if you stay focused and continue to use positive thinking to gain ground.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Your winning personality will lead to all sorts of entertaining moments that allow you to shine. Make plans with someone special for a vacation or getaway that you’ve been dreaming about.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Minor money problems will surface. Keep a close eye on your bank account and your budget so that an unexpected expense doesn’t clean you out and leave you in a compromising position.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Don’t try to force your opinions on others. If someone wants your suggestions, they will ask. Otherwise, you will be seen as pushy and meddlesome.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Make amends

if you haven’t been seeing eye-toeye with someone you care about.

Whether a comment was intentional doesn’t matter. Smooth things over or you will lose a valuable ally.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Today is about pleasure and pampering. Plan to do something special for yourself and those you love. Make plans to take a welcome break from your daily routine.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Tension will have you looking for a quiet spot to hide. This is a perfect time to focus on solitary tasks that have been piling up or to catch up on reading.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Not everyone will be ready to follow your lead. Gather with those who are and flesh out your plans. A sporting or cultural event will motivate and inspire you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Financial circumstances will require an innovative way to earn some extra money. With your knowledge and intellect, a mentoring or teach-

ing position could be a workable solution.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Get together with the ones you love most for some peaceful, playful interaction that will ease your stress.

This fun will enable you to reconnect and strengthen your bonds.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Be careful how you handle personal relationships. Someone will withhold pertinent information about the past or a current situation that might influence your feelings.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Someone younger will look to you for advice with a personal matter. Avoid being judgmental. If necessary, help them find a trained counselor to later avoid being blamed for meddling.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Learn from your past mistakes. If anyone tries to thwart your plans, outmaneuver the competition by heading in a different direction. Use your expertise, speed and agility to come out on top.

Dear Dr. K: I’m a man in my 40s, and I’ve suddenly started to lose patches of hair, but only on certain parts of my head. What’s going on?

Dear Reader: What you are describing does not sound like normal baldness, which typically affects a certain part of the head, not patches of hair loss here and there.

Instead, it sounds like you could have a condition called alopecia areata. This skin disorder causes hair loss, usually in small round or oval patches, most often on the scalp. The bald patches tend to appear suddenly and affect only a limited area. The area of bald skin looks smooth and normal. In most cases, there are no other scalp symptoms. (I’ve put a photo showing an example of alopecia areata on my website, www. askdoctork.com.)

About 90 percent of the time, the hair usually grows back within one year. However, it’s common for the problem to happen again. Alopecia areata most likely is caused by an autoimmune reaction: The body’s immune system incorrectly attacks the hair follicles within the scalp. Follicles are the structures that grow hair.

There is no permanent cure for alopecia areata, but there are ways to short-circuit the body’s autoimmune reaction in the scalp and encourage hair regrowth. Your treatment will depend on several factors. These include your age, the amount of your hair loss and your willingness to deal with any treatment-related discomfort or side effects.

Options include: • Corticosteroids injected under the skin of the bald patch.

These medicines quiet down the immune reaction. They also may be rubbed on the skin of the

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips have gotten his wish.

Dear Abby: During WWII, while I was overseas in the Navy, I received a “Dear John” letter. It was devastating, especially because I was so far away and unable to immediately respond. Do you think it is appropriate for a person to send such a letter while the person is far away, especially while in the service, or should the person wait until the service member returns home and say it’s over face-to-face?

After all these years, I have heard many pros and cons about this question. I can think of no one else with such a wealth of knowledge in this area to ask but you.

After hearing from you, I will finally put this to rest.

– John In Vineland, New Jersey Dear John: A decade ago

I would have said – and did tell someone – to wait until the person came home. My thinking was the news might demoralize the recipient and distract the person enough to get her/him killed.

I changed my mind after hearing from service members stationed in the Middle East who told me I was wrong – it’s better to get the word while there were buddies close by who could be emotionally supportive.

They suggested if the service member hears the news when he gets back – alone and possibly traumatized by what he or she has been through – that it could make the person more vulnerable to suicide.

Dear Abby: I represented my daughter “Stacy” and her husband as their real estate agent. When any of my children purchase a home, I waive my commission. My daughter knew I had been trying to finance a trip to South America for my husband so he could complete his “bucket list.”

She gave me a cruise on one of the most expensive cruise lines and airfare to South America as a gift for helping with their home purchase.

After my husband reviewed the itinerary, he said it wasn’t the trip he had in mind and wanted to know if my daughter could change it. I was embarrassed to ask her after receiving such a gracious gift. He became indignant and said if she really wanted to give him something he wanted, she wouldn’t mind changing the trip.

I told Stacy I couldn’t accept her gift because it was too much money. My husband is now angry with me because he feels I am the person at fault for the loss of the trip. Is my husband right that we should request a gift exchange from the giver, or was I justified for not accepting it in light of the fact that it was too much money? –

FRIDAY HOROSCOPE TODAY – A positive attitude will be your secret weapon this year. Believing in yourself and your abilities will invite like-minded people to join you. You can overcome any obstacles if you stay focused and continue to use positive thinking to gain ground.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Your winning personality will lead to all sorts of entertaining moments that allow you to shine. Make plans with someone special for a vacation or getaway that you’ve been dreaming about.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Minor money problems will surface. Keep a close eye on your bank account and your budget so that an unexpected expense doesn’t clean you out and leave you in a compromising position.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Don’t try to force your opinions on others. If someone wants your suggestions, they will ask. Otherwise, you will be seen as pushy and meddlesome.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Make amends if you haven’t been seeing eye-to-eye with someone you care about. Whether a comment was intentional doesn’t matter. Smooth things over or you will lose a valuable ally.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Today is about pleasure and pampering. Plan to do something special for yourself and those you love. Make plans to take a welcome break from your daily routine.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Tension will have you looking for a quiet spot to hide. This is a

perfect time to focus on solitary tasks that have been piling up or to catch up on reading.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Not everyone will be ready to follow your lead. Gather with those who are and flesh out your plans. A sporting or cultural event will motivate and inspire you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Financial circumstances will require an innovative way to earn some extra money. With your knowledge and intellect, a mentoring or teaching position could be a workable solution.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Get together with the ones you love most for some peaceful, playful interaction that will ease your stress. This fun will enable you to reconnect

and strengthen your bonds.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Be careful how you handle personal relationships. Someone will withhold pertinent information about the past or a current situation that might influence your feelings.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Someone younger will look to you for advice with a personal matter. Avoid being judgmental. If necessary, help them find a trained counselor to later avoid being blamed for meddling.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Learn from your past mistakes. If anyone tries to thwart your plans, outmaneuver the competition by heading in a different direction. Use your expertise, speed and agility to come out on top.

SATURDAY HOROSCOPE TODAY– This will be an exciting year, but not necessarily easy. Unanticipated events will slow you down, but with discipline you will bounce back with additional strength and drive in record time. Your inquisitive nature will lead you to educational opportunities. A new direction will bring positive change.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – A change of heart is apparent. Circumstances will not be in your control. You should cut your losses, face the situation honestly and move on.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Don’t make excuses or justifications for your behavior to someone you don’t know well. Keep your thoughts to yourself until you have found a trustworthy and sympathetic ear.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Don’t let someone else’s sour mood ruin your day. You will accomplish a lot if you concentrate on what you need to do without disrupting what someone else is trying to accomplish.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – You will be successful at whatever you pursue if you focus on what you are trying to achieve. Improving your work or home environment will be uplifting.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – If you embrace change, you will find plenty of opportunities to meet compatible and interesting people. You won’t find anything if you sit alone at home. Be a participant.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – An older friend or relative will be demanding or burdensome. Be

cooperative and accommodating, but point out that you have your own responsibilities to deal with as well.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Enjoy the moment.

Plan a day of pleasurable entertainment with your special someone. If unattached, head to a new venue where you can meet other singles looking for companionship.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Getting ahead professionally should be your goal. Put uncertainty and doubt behind you and get ready to move forward. If you believe in your abilities, so will those you encounter.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – You will have trouble making up your mind. Put any unimportant decisions on the back burner for now. A

quiet day of reflection will help you sort out your feelings and chart your course.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Don’t try to live your life by someone else’s rules. Your outlook, priorities, family and beliefs are unique to you alone. What works for another person isn’t likely to work for you.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Rethink your old plans and ideas. Don’t hold yourself back out of habit. Check out different options to discover an interesting and lucrative opportunity.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Don’t be drawn into gossip or negative thoughts when working with others. Being a team player is an important component if you want to advance. Your employer will appreciate your maturity and discipline.
