Sports bar patrons glued to U.S. game

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Patrons at Heroes West Sports Grill leaned toward the television screens as the U.S. men’s soccer team pushed two more times to score a goal against Germany in the final minutes of Thursday’s World Cup match.

They let out a collective groan after each chance fell short.

The U.S. team lost to Germany 1-0, but fans at the bar were still celebrating because the team advanced to the knockout round of the World Cup. “The atmosphere around the World Cup is amazing,” Shorewood resident Dan Rourke said.

Despite soccer often being an afterthought compared to other American professional sports like football, basketball, baseball and hockey, Heroes West was packed Thursday with fans rooting for the

national team.

Rourke doesn’t follow soccer as much as other sports.

He’s keeping up with the World Cup for the first time this year and came to the bar to in hopes of watching the U.S. advance.

“I sort of got interested in watching the Chicago Fire the last couple of years,” Rourke said, referring to Chicago’s professional soccer team.

But Rourke said the World Cup has a different appeal to him because a champion is crowned every four years, not every year as in the NFL,

NBA, MLB or NHL. “It’s definitely more interesting that way,” said Conor Eilers, a Wilmington resident who played and watches soccer regularly. “It’s exciting because you’re just waiting for that goal. The anticipation makes each individual goal epic.”

Eilers said he took a day off from work to watch the match at the sports bar.

“My boss was cool and understands,” Eilers said. “I don’t have cable, and I just wanted to watch the match with my brother and some

over from a first round of street work along with additional state money.

The $251,857 surplus was generated after the winning bid on the initial work by Austin Tyler Construction Company came in 27.6 percent below the engineer’s estimate.

Another $141,837 will be funded through the Illinois Department of Transportation’s Illinois Jobs Now program.

The city plans to develop an engineering plan and advertise for bids on the project, which would be completed in the fall.

Streets to be resurfaced include: • Twin Lakes Drive from Wesmere Parkway to Winding Lakes Drive.

• Glen Eagle Drive from Pebble

Beach Drive.

• Morgan Street from Midland Avenue to Dwight Avenue.

• Union Street from Fourth Avenue to Third Avenue.

• Woodlawn Avenue from West Acres Road to Mayfield Avenue.

• Theodore Street from Overlook Drive to Timberline Drive.

• Kenilworth Avenue from Roosevelt Avenue to Clara Avenue.

• Emerald Pointe Drive from Orchard Street to Cedar Pointe Drive.

• Fairview Avenue from Garvin Street to Juniper Street.

• Cricket Avenue to the east city limits.

• Baskin Drive from Ryehill Drive to south city limits.

LOCAL BRIEFS Tinley Park man killed Wednesday in I-355 crash NEW LENOX – A Tinley Park man was killed Wednesday when his car struck a semitrailer on Interstate 355.

The Will County Coroner’s office said Nicholas T. Umgelder, 36, struck the rear of the semitrailer near Interstate 80.

Umgelder was taken to Silver Cross Hospital where he was pronounced dead at 5:46 p.m.

State police are investigating the crash.

food, beer, and be in the presence of other people.”

Heroes West Assistant Manager Susan Seeley said tables usually are full during World Cup games involving the U.S. team.

“It’s as full as football days,” Seeley said. “The fact that it’s every four years makes it even more important.”

Despite the loss to Germany, Eilers said he thought the U.S. team needs to continue playing the same way if they have a shot to advance further in the World Cup. But he thought midfielder Michael Bradley needs to step up to a bigger role.

While he’ll continue watching matches even if the U.S. gets knocked out of the tournament, Rourke said he was on the fence.

“If the U.S. loses, I just might continue watching the other teams,” he said.

“I might ‘accidentally’ watch some.”

SPECIALS McBride’s reuben sandwich is one of the many treats at Taste of Joliet

By BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com JOLIET – On a hot summer night, what goes best with heavy metal music and a cold brew?

Tracy Stary is betting on a classic Reuben sandwich, complete with fresh-cooked corn beef, crisp sauerkraut, tangy thousand island dressing and a slice of Swiss cheese on grilled marbled rye bread.

“It’s one of our top sellers,” said Stary, co-owner of McBride’s on 52. “It’s great. We sell a ton on St. Patrick’s Day.” Stary is hoping to sell a ton of Reuben sandwiches at the three-day Taste of Joliet, which opens at noon Friday and runs through Sunday. McBride’s will be among 28 vendors at the event.

And if a Reuben’s not your fare, McBride’s also will be selling mini burgers, chicken tenders and pulled pork.

Taste-goers also can try food from familiar Joliet restaurants like Cemeno’s and Babe’s Hot Dogs.

Sweet corn on the cob,

dipped in butter and served up by the Joliet Fire Department, is a festival tradition.

Other vendors will offer everything from ethnic specialties, like crab rangoon, to traditional carnival fare, such as funnel cakes and corn dogs.

Having fun food offerings for both adults and children is key, said Dominic Egizio, executive director of the Joliet Park District, because the festival is all about family. That same philosophy also carries over into entertainment.

For kids, there’s a huge carnival set up north of the stadium, the Kid Zone, complete with inflatables, face painting and a balloon artist, plus music, especially on Sunday, with acts like Radio Disney and Skinny Williams.

For adults, there are headliners like Sammy Hagar, Thompson Square and American English.

“We’re always looking for family-friendly rock music,” Egizio said. “But we also want someone who attracts a lot of

Expectations build for Sammy Hagar performance

By BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Red Rocker headlines Taste of Joliet on Friday night, and park district officials hope he’ll generate a lot of green.

Rock legend Sammy Hagar is set to the main stage at Joliet Memorial Stadium at 9 p.m. The former Van Halen front man looks to be one of the biggest draws in the history of the festival’s current nine-year run.

“I think people are really excited about it,” said Dominic Egizio, executive director of the Joliet Park District. “I’ve probably had at least three times the number of calls just about [Hagar’s performance on] Friday than I have had on the whole weekend.”

At the same time, Egizio sees Saturday’s country lineup of Thompson Square, Brett Eldredge, Eric Paslay and Dan + Shay as another huge draw.

Saturday offers entertain-

So, is Joliet a rock town or a country town?

“I think we’ll know after this weekend,” Egizio said. “I think

it’s going to be a big number for Sammy Hagar.”

Two hundred reserve tickets in front of the stage sold out within hours of the district’s announcement of the Hagar concert in February.

Reserve tickets for Saturday night’s headliner, country band Thompson Square, also have sold out.

Egizio hopes the turnout for Hagar will eclipse the record 18,000 fans who attended the 2013 festival to watch country

star Hunter Hayes perform.

The stadium holds up to 25,000, so there’s plenty of room to grow, he noted.

The district has tried to book Hagar for the festival for the past several years, but scheduling problems always prevented his attendance.

Hagar’s more than 40-year career as a guitarist and singer includes playing for such bands as Van Halen – where he

NITRO NITE REVS UP FOR RACE WEEKEND Kicks off O’Reilly Auto Parts Route 66 NHRA Nationals

By BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Rocky Ausec revved the engine on his 1971 Mustang Mach I classic alcohol funny car.

A throbbing wall of sound filled the 100 block of Chicago Street, coupled with a deep rumble you could feel in the center of your chest and through the soles of your feet.

A young man stood about 15 feet behind the car’s headers.

His shirt billowed like a flag everytime Rocky hit the gas.

It was a fitting anthem for Nitro Nite, a downtown celebration Thursday night to kick off this weekend’s O’Reilly Auto Parts Route 66 NHRA Nationals.

The event – which included racer interviews, a car show, golf cart drag racing, food and music – mirrored Race Fan Rally, the annual celebration that precedes the NASCAR

Chase weekend at Chicagoland Speedway.

Ausec, of Rockdale, was there to show off his classic funny car, which he said runs the quarter mile in about 7.5 seconds, hitting a top speed of around 180 mph. Old school, but a lot different than today’s drag racers.

“Those cars out there now can hit 330 mph from a standing start,” Ausec noted.

Derral and Barb Snyder brought their car to the event, but not to race. The Snyders of Joliet drive a butternut and brown 1931 Model A Ford coupe.

For the record, the car can go about 50 mph, Barb Snyder said. The couple has taken it on the road as far as Peoria and Chatsworth, about two hours away, she said.

“People in our Model A club have gone to Florida and back,” Barb Snyder said.

“We’re not that brave.”

The car comes complete with a rumble seat in back.

“They used to put kids in there when were bad and close it up,” she joked to one youngster.

PLAINFIELD – Expansion is on the minds of Greater Joliet Area YMCA officials after a land purchase has nearly doubled the size of its C.W. Avery Family YMCA location.

The YMCA recently bought 10.3 acres of land from the Plainfield Community Consolidated School District 202 at a price of $1 million. The purchase was approved at Monday’s school board meeting.

“We don’t have any immediate plans for the property,” said James Watts, president and chief executive officer of Greater Joliet Area YMCA. “The board decided we want to do research before we forge ahead. But we need a larger building for everything we want to do.”

The property, currently used as leased farmland, is adjacent and directly north of the C.W. Avery Family YMCA on 15120 Wallin Drive in Plainfield, Watts said.

Before the purchase, the land was a part of 25 acres of school district property that includes Ira Jones Middle School, Associate Superintendent Lane Abrell said.

That property includes Ira Jones Middle School, which was built in 2004. The parcel sold to the YMCA was originally slated for a future elementary school, according to the school district’s master plan.

“Really with the bottom dropping out of the housing market and enrollment flattening out in the forseeable future, there is no need for a new school there,” Abrell said, adding that negotiations for the land started

“Really with the bottom dropping out of the housing market and enrollment flattening out in the forseeable future, there is no need for a new school there. They could use that land with all of our students who are in YMCA programs.”

Lane Abrell District 202 Associate Superintendent about 11 months ago with the YMCA approaching the school district about purchasing or swapping land.

“They could use that land with all of our students who are in YMCA programs,” he said.

The YMCA and the school district want to advance an already mutually beneficial partnership that started more than 20 years ago.

The Kidz Zone program is a before- and after-school program at the C.W. Avery Family YMCA that provides activities for more than 200 of the school district’s students. Also, the facility is home to the swim team.

“They are a very vital part of what we do,” Abrell said. “They have many of the same objectives as schools do, especially health and fitness related.”

Besides the land purchase, Watts said the Greater Joliet Area YMCA has been working on deferred maintenance in its existing buildings and is making progress on securing a temporary YMCA site in Morris.

Arrests made Anywhere. in pizza robbery

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com ROMEOVILLE – Two men have been arrested after authorities said they robbed a pizza delivery woman.

Deputy Chief Steve Lucchesi said detectives went back about 1 p.m. Wednesday to canvas the area where the robbery occurred Tuesday night on Dunbridge Lane.

“They saw three individuals who matched the descriptions of the suspects and detained them to conduct an interview,” Lucchesi said.

After being questioned, Deon C. Brown, 21, of the 800 block of Harris Lane, and Rene D. Ramos, 19, of the first block of Honeybear Lane, were arrested on charges of armed robbery.

The juvenile who was

with the two men also was questioned, but had not been charged as of Thursday morning, Lucchesi said.

At 10:24 p.m. Tuesday, the victim arrived to deliver food when she was approached by three men covering their faces with hooded sweatshirts. They pulled her from the car and forced her to sit in the backseat. One held a gun on her while another rifled through the vehicle, according to police.

“During the interview, they said it was pellet gun,” Lucchesi said.

The robbers struck the woman on the head with the gun and took cash, her cellphone and pizzas. Lucchesi said the victim did not require medical attention. The phone was not recovered during the arrest.

maintains the video of the premises and who is sort of the information technology person,” Pfeiffer said.

At a June 18 meeting, board members approved the termination of John Williamsen’s employment. Attempts to reach Whitaker and Board President Joseph Ryan for comment on Williamsen’s dismissal were unsuccessful.

The motion from Acanfora’s attorneys alleged that Whitaker contacted witnesses and potential witnesses to gather physical evidence for the purpose of destroying or concealing it.

The motion also alleged that Whitaker and school Principal Tamela Daniels contacted internal and external surveillance video companies in an effort to obtain video footage of events identified in the lawsuit.

The response from Whitaker’s and school board members’ attorneys was to oppose the motion because Acanfora’s attorneys failed to contact them before filing the motion, failed to demonstrate good cause and because it was redundant.

“This Motion consists of a litany of conclusory and speculative allegations made solely on ‘information and belief,’ ” the attorney’s response stated. “Plaintiff’s conclusory and unsubstantiated allegations do not constitute good cause … the Plaintiff’s Motion is devoid of factual support and should be denied.”

LOCKPORT – Fairmont School District 89 officials will try to resolve a lawsuit in a settlement conference slated for August.

The lawsuit comes from a fired administrator, whose lawyers recently alleged that the district superintendent was planning to destroy evidence related to the case.

Attorneys representing former district Curriculum Coordinator Debra Acanfora filed an emergency motion June 12 to protect evidence.

Her lawyers contended that district Superintendent Sonya Whitaker may have been trying to destroy evidence related to the lawsuit.

Attorneys representing Whitaker and school board members named in the lawsuit disputed the motion.

On June 13, the emergency motion was denied by a federal judge, who then referred the case to magistrate judge for a settlement conference Aug. 5.

“If there’s no chance of resolving it then the settlement conference will be terminated, and the magistrate judge will refer it to the district judge, and it will go on from there,” said Matthew Pfeiffer, an attorney representing Acanfora.

Until then, Pfeiffer said he plans to put on hold any actions related to the lawsuit as a showing of good faith.

Babak Bakhtiari, one of the attorneys representing Whitaker and board members, said his office is interested in pursuing the conference.

On May 7, Acanfora filed a federal lawsuit when school board members voted unanimously at a special meeting to fire her. Pfeiffer has said school officials alleged she stole mail from the school district, which Acanfora denied.

The lawsuit claims Whitaker was abusive and on different occasions threw stacks of paper and a stapler at Acanfora. The lawsuit also claims Acanfora was denied due process during the course of her dismissal.

In a June 19 response to the lawsuit, Whitaker and board members denied allegations of Whitaker’s abusive treatment toward Acanfora or that they violated Acanfora’s due process rights.

Attorneys decided to file the emergency motion to preserve evidence when Acanfora said she heard from someone at the Fairmont school that Whitaker requested large trash bins to her office and fired John Williamsen, technology coordinator, who was involved in district’s video surveillance, Pfeiffer said.

“We basically took that as some type of implication that Whitaker was going to try and do something in terms of destroying evidence, because it is unusual in my mind to summon three garbage cans and to call in the person who

Officials attempting to make historical road a major tourist attraction

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com

Provided photo

Steve Lazzara, senior planner at the Will County Land Use Department, speaks Thursday at a stakeholders meeting at the Autobahn Country Club in Joliet.

“At this point in time, a national scenic byway is not defined as an attraction, so therefore we can’t just put up an informational attraction sign … We’re doing some work on that [with the Illinois Department of Transportation].”

Bill Kelley, executive director for the Route 66 Association intern with the land use department, discussed funding options for a new bike path along Route 53 and how to best connect existing trails with nearby destinations.

State or federal grant funding is available for engineering and design, but it would

take some time before anything comes to fruition, he said.

Kevin Rodgers, general manager for the Autobahn Country Club, said these ideas are “just the beginning.”

“There’s much more yet to be done,” Rodgers said.

partment of Transportation],” Kelley said.

Elaine Bottomley, an intern with the land use department, said she is in talks with BNSF Railway and the Illinois Department of Transportation about the possibility of painting a mural across one of the railroad overpasses along Route 53, essentially creating a gateway to the corridor.

Opting for a mural wrap – or a high-performance vinyl wrap with a paint-like appearance – would save on costs and provide for more flexibility, Bottomley said. A permit would cost $1,000. BNSF officials and IDOT would have to sign off on the final image.

“It would be reflective of what Route 66 was in its heyday,” Bottomley said. A local art competition could engage the community, she said.

JOLIET – State and local officials will spend the summer figuring out how to best make a 25-mile stretch of road between Joliet and Braidwood – known as historic Route 66 – a major tourist attraction.

And they want to do it without breaking the bank.

Steve Lazzara, senior planner at the Will County Land Use Department, said Thursday at a stakeholders meeting held at the Autobahn Country Club that it makes sense to first reach for low-hanging fruit – or inexpensive, practical ideas that can be accomplished until grants or other funding sources become available for meatier projects.

While the Gemini Giant in Wilmington and the PolkA-Dot Drive-In in Braidwood are fairly established as photo hot spots along Route 66, the goal is to tie other destinations into one tourism package. The ultimate goal is to have those day-trippers visit attractions not too far off the beaten path of Route 66 and perhaps stay for longer than a weekend, Lazzara said.

About 30 city, county and state officials involved with the project met Thursday to discuss next steps, which included forming subcommittees that will meet over the summer.

Adding signage along Route 66 and nearby interstates that will steer drivers toward key destinations is a good place to start, said Bill Kelley, executive director for the Route 66 Association.

“People are driving up and down I-55 ... and I-80 ... and they don’t realize the most famous road in the world is right here,” Kelley said.

He did note to the group that there are some challenges in putting additional signage along state-owned highways.

“At this point in time, a national scenic byway is not defined as an attraction, so therefore we can’t just put up an informational attraction sign … We’re doing some work on that [with the Illinois De-

Grundy County Board member resigns Chairman has 60 days to fill the position, but appointee must be approved by board

By JESSICA BOURQUE jbourque@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Republican Teryl Lundeen resigned last week from the Grundy County Board because of family, business and personal issues that were not made public.

“With deep regret I am resigning from the Grundy County Board effective immediately.

I enjoyed serving my constituents in District 2 and working with each and everyone of you on the County Board,” Lundeen wrote in her official resignation letter, sent June 20.

“Unfortunately due to family, business and personal reasons, I do not have the necessary time to devote to the County Board.”

Phone calls made to Lundeen were not returned.

Lundeen was elected in 2012 to one of the six District 2 Grundy County Board seats and was not up for re-election until November 2016.

As a board member, Lundeen was involved in six county committees. She served as chairwoman of the Education Committee and vice chairwoman of the Community Relations

Committee.

Her official resignation is slated for County Board approval at the next full board meeting, scheduled for July 8.

County Board Chairman Ron Severson, with direction from the County Board, retains the power to appoint a Republican replacement to Lundeen’s seat, State’s Attorney Jason Helland said.

“It was a Republican position, so it must be filled by a Republican,” Helland said.

Severson has 60 days to fill the position, but the appointee must be approved by the ma-

MINOOKA

Village Board agrees to help fund railroad viaduct

By KRIS STADALSKY Shaw Media Correspondent MINOOKA – The Minooka Village Board has approved an intergovernmental agreement with Grundy County to foot $2 million of the cost to build a new railroad viaduct over Ridge Road.

Both the county and the village agree Ridge Road needs to be widened north of the CSX railroad tracks to McEvilly Road to accommodate increased traffic.

The Minooka Board approved the agreement at its meeting Tuesday by a 6-0 vote with trustee Terry Houchens absent.

Minooka Administrator Dan Duffy took the village’s signed agreement to Grundy County on Thursday, according to Village Clerk Mary Ray. The county has the new railroad viaduct in its fiveyear road and bridge construction plan.

The entire price tag for the project is $7.25 million, according to village records. Grundy County already has received a grant from the Illinois Commerce Commission for $4.35 million toward the project.

“If the insurance company says they won’t insure it, we will keep looking for an opportunity that will work in the future.”

John Harrington Minooka village finance director

Minooka is contributing $2 million in Federal Surface Transportation funds previously granted to the village by the Will County Governmental League for the project.

That will leave about $520,000 to be paid by Grundy County.

Refinancing bonds could mean lower fee The refinancing of three bond issues into one could mean a lower special assessment fee attached to property owner’s homes in Minooka.

Minooka trustees approved Tuesday refinancing $20 million in bonds used to build the infrastructure in Lakewood Trails, Lakewood Trails Unit 2 and Prairie Ridge subdivisions in 2003 and 2004. Resi-

dents in those subdivisions have a 28-year assessment on their property.

The village keeps an eye out for ways to pass savings on to residents, Village Finance Director John Harrington said.

By consolidating the bond issues, savings could be realized through a reduced interest rate and the fees associated with administrating three separate accounts.

William Blair & Company has completed the research needed to find out if the village could combine the bonds and if it would result in a savings. It still has to be approved through the village’s insurance company.

“If approved, the goal would be to go to market the first week of July and close the transaction two weeks after that,” Harrington said.

If the refinancing is approved by the insurance company, residents will get a letter from the village highlighting how the change will affect their individual assessments.

“If the insurance company says they won’t insure it, we will keep looking for an opportunity that will work in the future,” Harrington said.

jority of the County Board, Helland said.

“The chairman can throw a name out there and the board could reject it,” Helland said.

Both the Republican and Democratic central committees were made aware of Lundeen’s resignation.

Severson can accept, or reject, suggested candidates from the Republican committee as long as the replacement board member resides within District 2.

By law, Lundeen’s position must be included in the November general election since

she completed less than half of her term.

This means her replacement will serve for a brief period of two or three months before facing an election.

“Since more than 28 months were left in her term, this position will be on the November ballot for re-election,” Helland said. The winner of the November election will serve until the expiration of Lundeen’s term in 2016.

Due to the 60-day time line, the board could have a replacement ready for approval in time for the July board meeting.

The current forecast calls for sunny weather with highs in the mid-80s, with a chance of scattered storms on Saturday and Sunday.

Egizio said Joliet police will monitor weather conditions from a command post at the stadium.

Meanwhile, preparations for the weekend are going smoothly, Egizio said. The main stage arrived Thursday morning, and sound controls were installed later in the day. Food vendors have been setting up, as well.

The festival also will feature a carnival, which will be set up on the grassy area north of the stadium from the scoreboard to Jefferson Street.

Fort Carson honors Mokena native Pfc. Aaron Toppen

FORT CARSON, Colo. – Commanders and soldiers gathered at Fort Carson on Thursday to honor two soldiers who were killed in one of the deadliest friendly fire incidents in Afghanistan. The memorial service for Cpl. Justin Clouse and Pfc. Aaron Toppen, both members of the 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, included a 21-gun salute and bagpipes playing “Amazing Grace.”

They were killed with three other soldiers in an American airstrike on June 9. It was called in after their unit was ambushed by the Taliban.

Clouse was 22 and from the tiny town of Sprague, Washington. He enlisted in the Army shortly after graduating from high school and was on his second tour in Afghanistan.

Toppen was 19 and from Mokena. He deployed in March after staying behind for his father’s funeral.

Gov. Quinn won’t testify about 2010 anti-violence program

CHICAGO – Gov. Pat Quinn said he has no intentions of testifying before a legislative commission about the scandal-laden anti-violence program he started in 2010.

The Chicago Democrat hasn’t been subpoenaed or invited less informally. But seven former officials with his administration have been compelled to appear before the Legislative Audit Commission next month. They’re expected to address problems with management and spending under Quinn’s $55 million Neighborhood Recovery Initiative.

Fans cheer for the United States on Thursday as they watch the World Cup match between the U.S. and Germany at Grant Park in Chicago.

The U.S. lost, 1-0, but still advanced to the next round in the World Cup. Soccer fans watched the match on two big screens at a viewing party in the park. That included a 19’-by-33’ high-definition screen at the park’s Petrillo Music Shell. The U.S. vs. Portugal match on Sunday brought about 20,000 fans to Grant Park.

violence in several Chicago neighborhoods, but a state audit earlier this year found “pervasive” issues. Federal and Cook County authorities are also investigating the program.

This week Republicans called on Quinn to testify himself.

Quinn dismissed the notion Thursday after an unrelated event. He said he addressed problems, including dismantling the agency that ran the program.

Gov. Quinn signs anti-bullying bill

CHICAGO – Illinois’ public schools will have to instate anti-bullying policies under a new law that Gov. Pat Quinn has signed.

The Chicago Democrat signed the bill Thursday at a Chicago elementary school.

He said the law will protect

students inside and outside of the classroom. The law takes effect immediately.

It requires all public schools to create and implement an anti-bullying policy.

School admission of Rauner’s daughter questioned

CHICAGO – The issue of how Republican Bruce Rauner’s daughter was admitted into an elite Chicago public school resurfaced in the Illinois governor’s race this week with a top school official and Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn raising new questions.

Rauner was dogged by allegations of using his money and influence – knowing school leaders and giving the school a $250,000 donation – during the four-way Republican primary.

The venture capitalist trying

to unseat Quinn has portrayed himself as a political outsider fighting against such special interests in a state that’s infamous for clout.

However, outgoing Chicago Public Schools Inspector James Sullivan, who investigates waste, fraud and mismanagement for the nation’s third-largest school district, offered information that contradicted some of Rauner’s public statements.

Scott AFB lands 320-worker cyber security effort

MASCOUTAH – The addition of two cybersecurity squadrons to an Air Force base in southwestern Illinois will bring 320 new jobs within two years and a $16 million investment in the site, members of Illinois’ congressional delegation announced.

Scott Air Force Base near Mascoutah, just east of St. Louis, and another in Texas won the competition among seven finalists for the protection squads, which guard against attacks on the nation’s computer networks, identify hackers, stop the attacks and fix the damage.

Such personnel also pose as hackers, trying to crack into military, Pentagon or other national computer systems.

“As a 35-year member of the military, I can tell you that this addition is a huge win for Scott,” added U.S. Rep. Bill Enyart, a Democrat who once headed the Illinois National Guard and now serves on the House Armed Services Committee. “This is a direct message from the Air Force about Scott’s critical role in cybersecurity.”

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Facing headwinds, Obama courts ‘real America’ MINNEAPOLIS – With 2½years remaining in his term, President Barack Obama has been blocked by Congress and is running out of steps he can take on his own to achieve his goals.

So the White House is trying to maximize Obama’s exposure to “real Americans,” hoping that more intimate and less scripted interactions will remind struggling citizens why they voted for him in the first place.

A poignant letter from one of those Americans prompted Obama to fly to Minnesota to spend time Thursday with Rebekah Erler, an accountant and mother of two whose tale of financial struggle made its way to Obama’s desk, one of the 10 letters from Americans that Obama reads each night.

As he joined Erler, 36, for burgers under dim neon lights advertising beer at Matt’s Bar, her quest to do right by her family despite economic headwinds animated the president’s rallying cry for Washington to pay attention to the plight of the American middle class.

It’s a popular theme for Democrats in a midterm election year.

Missing boy found in own basement leaves hospital DETROIT – A 12-year-old Detroit boy who went missing for a dozen days before turning up in his own basement is

out of the hospital but hasn’t been allowed to see his father and stepmother, police said Thursday.

Charlie Bothuell V was evaluated by doctors Wednesday night after he was found in a shared utility and storage area of the multiple-unit condo near downtown Detroit, said Sgt. Mike Woody, a police spokesman.

Investigators were not allowing him to have contact with Charlie Bothuell IV and Monique Dillard-Bothuell as they now focus on the circumstances surrounding the boy’s disappearance and his surprising recovery.

High court voids abortion clinic protest-free zone WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court unanimously struck down the 35-foot protest-free zone outside abortion clinics in Massachusetts Thursday, declaring it an unconstitutional restraint on the free-speech rights of protesters.

Authorities have less intrusive ways to deal with potential confrontations or other problems that can arise outside clinics, Chief Justice John Roberts wrote.

Roberts noted that most of the problems reported by police and the clinics in Massachusetts occurred outside a single Planned Parenthood facility in Boston, and only on Saturdays when the largest crowds typically gather.

Medal of Honor recipient: This belongs to comrades RIK STEVENS The Associated Press CONCORD, N.H. – Ryan Pitts will wear the nation’s highest award for combat valor, but the humble and soft-spoken Medal of Honor recipient who continued to fight after being wounded in one of Afghanistan’s bloodiest battles insisted Thursday that the medal belongs to all of his comrades who fought and died that day.

Pitts, now a 28-year-old married father of one, will receive the medal next month at the White House.

The citation says Pitts fought off enemy fighters on July 13, 2008, in Wanat, Afghanistan. Despite losing blood from wounds in both legs and an arm, he continued to fire at about 200 Taliban fighters and guided air strikes that helped repel the attack.

He also used a tactic known as “cooking off” grenades, pulling the pin and holding it longer than usual so the enemy couldn’t throw it back.

Pitts, who was raised in Mont Vernon and now lives in Nashua, started Thursday’s remarks at the National Guard Headquarters in Concord by reading the names of

the nine members of his platoon, who died in the attack.

“While it is an honor to have been nominated for the award, it is not mine alone,” he said. “The honor belongs to every man who fought at Vehicle Patrol Base Kahler, especially to those who made the ultimate sacrifice that allowed the rest of us to return home. I have an absolute responsibility to tell our story, because there are nine men who cannot and it is their names you should know.”

They are Sergio Abad, Jonathan Ayers, Jason Bogar, Jonathan Brostrom, Israel Garcia, Jason Hovater, Matthew Phillips, Pruitt Rainey and Gunnar Zwilling.

“I take comfort somehow in the pain of that loss, because it reminds me that they meant something to me and I never want to forget that and I appreciate the sacrifice they made for us,” he said.

Pitts recalled the moment Garcia died.

“There wasn’t really anything we could do for him other than for me to give him the guarantee that I would come home and tell his wife and mother that he loved them and that he was thinking of them in his last moments,” he

said.

Pitts kept his word.

He will become the ninth living recipient of the medal for actions in Iraq or Afghanistan and has heard from two of the others about life after receiving the honor, a prospect he wasn’t happy about when he first learned his actions were being reviewed.

“I never felt that I deserved it but since then, I’ve accepted the fact that this isn’t mine,” he said. “It belongs to everybody who was there that day because we did it together.”

He maintains he hasn’t changed because of the medal.

“I think the biggest thing that has changed is I know I’ve been given a gift and I think I have an appreciation of life that I probably didn’t have before,” he said. “I know now that I’m going to live my life for those who aren’t here because I owe it to them.”

Pitts, who has fully recuperated from his injuries and is in business development at a software firm, was accompanied Thursday by his wife, Amy. His face brightened when asked about life since the battle, clearly happy about his upcoming second wedding anniversary and their 1-yearold son, Lucas.

Clinton struggles in discussing her family wealth

By KEN THOMAS The Associated Press DENVER – Hillary Rodham Clinton is a hardworking champion of women, children and the poor. Or she’s a wealthy elitist more comfortable in Davos, Switzerland, than Davenport, Iowa.

Which is it? If Clinton decides to again run for president, how voters answer that question could play a role in whether she’s able to win the White House.

“They raised the bar on these issues with Mitt in 2012,” said Ron Kaufman, a longtime adviser to former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, whose wealth and business record were targeted by Democrats. “Now their candidates for president have to get over the same bar.”

Perhaps the biggest news to come from the recent launch of Clinton’s memoir of her time as Secretary of State isn’t what the book says about the terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, but what she’s said about her personal finances while plugging the book.

It started with an interview with ABC News in which she said she and husband Bill were “dead broke” when they left the White House in early 2001, grappling with millions of dollars in legal bills. Then came an interview with The Guardian, in which Clinton appeared to draw a distinction by saying her family paid an “ordinary income tax, unlike a lot of people who are truly well off.”

The couple’s daughter, Chelsea Clinton, was pulled into the fray when Politico reported that she earned $600,000 a year at NBC News, where she has infrequently appeared as a special correspondent.

Those statements don’t mesh well with the fact the Clintons are, by almost any measure, quite wealthy, with an annual income that places them solidly among the top 1 percent of Americans. As secretary of state, Clinton’s financial disclosure report filed in 2012 showed the couple had an estimated net worth between $5 million and $25 million.

The former first lady and

New York senator is by no means a billionaire but can command $200,000 or more for a single speech – four times what the median American household takes home each year. The University of Nevada, Las Vegas, said Tuesday that Clinton would be paid $225,000 to speak at the university foundation’s annual dinner in October.

Being rich isn’t necessarily a political liability for potential presidents. Democrats Franklin Delano Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy both entered politics after privileged upbringings. The last two Republican presidents, George H.W. Bush and his son, George W. Bush, could vacation at the family’s Maine seaside compound or at the younger president’s sprawling Texas ranch.

Former President Bill Clinton, who defended his wife this week as someone who isn’t “out of touch,” said a president’s wealth should matter less than the policies they seek to promote.

“I think I had the lowest net worth of any American president in the 20th century when I took office. But I still could have been tone deaf,” Clinton said, adding: “The real issue is, if you’ve been fortunate enough to be successful, are you now out of touch and insensitive to the agonizing struggles other people are facing?”

And yet Republicans still remember how President Barack Obama’s campaign dissected Romney’s business dealings and capitalized on his reluctance to release certain tax records. The campaign successfully created an image of Romney tied to his wealth that was cemented by a video of him telling donors that 47 percent of Americans would automatically vote for Obama because they don’t pay income taxes and are “dependent upon government.”

Romney’s campaign tried to respond by portraying him as a success story and a business turnaround artist. But their efforts were undermined by a series of ready-for-YouTube gaffes, telling out-ofwork Floridians that “I’m also unemployed,” a New Hampshire audience that he liked “being able to fire people” and

a Detroit gathering that his wife “drives a couple of Cadillacs.”

Such comments are reminiscent of Clinton’s recent struggles to talk about her money and lifestyle, including a January remark in a speech to auto dealers that she hadn’t driven a car since 1996.

While Clinton said this week any comparisons to Romney were a “false equivalency,” they lend themselves to a still-forming GOP strat-

egy of portraying her as a Washington insider who has enjoyed a privileged life sheltered by private jets, fancy homes and hobnobbing with the elites of Wall Street and Hollywood.

Democrats argue Clinton’s personal wealth won’t be able to overshadow a long career in public service, which began as an advocate for poor families at the Children’s Defense Fund and led to years of work in Arkansas and Wash-

ington on issues such as early childhood education, expanded health care coverage and job creation.

“Attacks are most effective when they play into a pre-existing stereotype about a candidate,” said Ben LaBolt, a former Obama campaign spokesman. “Nobody thinks that Hillary Clinton spent her career focused on making money. She was in the public eye advocating for a policy agenda.”

Iraqis who fled their villages gather near a Kurdish checkpoint, in the Khazer area between the Iraqi city of Mosul and the Kurdish city of Irbil, northern Iraq, Thursday. Hundreds of villagers fleeing advances by Sunni militants crowded under the morning sun trying to enter Iraqi Kurdish-controlled territory Thursday, aiming to join large numbers of displaced people who have already sought shelter in the relative safety of the largely autonomous region. within days to inform Iraqi politicians of Tehran’s favorite, they said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the internal deliberations.

Missing Malaysian plane may have flown on autopilot

By KRISTEN GELINEAU The Associated Press SYDNEY – Investigators believe the missing Malaysia Airlines plane flew on autopilot for hours before crashing into a remote part of the Indian Ocean, Australian officials said Thursday as they announced another shift in the search area for the jet.

After analyzing data exchanged between the plane and a satellite, officials believe Flight 370 was on autopilot the entire time it was flying across a vast expanse of the southern Indian Ocean, based on the straight path it took, Australian Transport Safety Bureau chief commissioner Martin Dolan said.

“Certainly for its path across the Indian Ocean, we are confident that the aircraft was operating on autopilot until it ran out of fuel,” Dolan

told reporters in Canberra, the nation’s capital.

Asked whether the autopilot would have to be manually switched on, or whether it could have been activated automatically under a default setting, Dolan replied, “The basic assumption would be that if the autopilot is operational it’s because it’s been switched on.”

But exactly why the autopilot would have been set on a flight path so far off course from the jet’s destination of Beijing, and exactly when it was switched on remain unknown.

“We couldn’t accurately, nor have we attempted to, fix the moment when it was put on autopilot,” Transport Minister Warren Truss said. “It will be a matter for the Malaysian-based investigation to look at precisely when it may have been put on autopilot.”

The latest nugget of information from the investigation into Flight 370 came as officials announced yet another change in the search area for the plane that vanished March 8 after taking off from Kuala Lumpur with 239 passengers and crew on board.

The transport safety bureau said it made the assumption in defining the new search area that the crew was unresponsive, possibly suffering from oxygen deprivation, as the plane flew under autopilot. It said this was indicated by the loss of radio communications and the long period without any maneuvering of the plane. It emphasized, however, that this was only a working theory and did not mean that accident investigators led by Malaysia would reach a similar conclusion.

reluctant Shiite parties into backing al-Maliki for a second term four years ago, and its leverage over Iraq’s Shiite political establishment has grown significantly since the 2011 withdrawal of U.S. troops

after an eight-year presence.

Non-Arab and mostly Shiite, Iran has found in majority Shiite Iraq a convenient vehicle to extend its sphere of regional influence to the heart of the Middle East. Iran’s leverage in Iraq also gives it a trump card against its Sunni rivals in the Gulf region, where powerhouse Saudi Arabia, for example, has traditionally viewed Tehran with suspicion.

The United States and its allies are pushing for the creation of a government that can draw support among Iraq’s Sunni minority, which has been alienated by al-Maliki, seen as a fiercely partisan Shiite.

British Foreign Secretary William Hague, meeting with al-Maliki in Baghdad on Thursday, told a news conference that “we believe the urgent priority must be to form an inclusive government ... that can command the support of all Iraqis and work to stop terrorists and their terrible crimes.”

Thousands flee Ukraine for Russia; truce nears end

By BALINT SZLANKO The Associated Press IZVARYNE, Ukraine – As a shaky cease-fire in the east entered its final hours Thursday, thousands of Ukrainians in cars stuffed with belongings lined up at the border to cross into Russia, some vowing never to return.

Many said they were most frightened for their children and desperate to take them to safety.

A commander at the rebel-controlled border post outside the city of Luhansk said 5,000 people had left by evening, joining a stream that he said has continued unabated during the weeklong truce that has failed to end the gunfire and shelling.

Russia says tens of thousands of Ukrainians have come in the 2½ months since Ukraine’s government began fighting separatists in the east, a heavily industri-

al region with a large population of ethnic Russians, many of whom feel strong ties to Moscow.

Air strikes and artillery attacks by the Ukrainian military have infuriated many residents, and many crossing the border on Thursday said they were fleeing the fighting, which has killed more than 400 people since mid-April by the United Nations’ estimate.

Those who talked to Associated Press journalists, however, said nothing to indicate that they supported the armed separatists, who have seized government buildings, declared independence and asked Russia to annex the region.

With the cease-fire set to expire on Friday, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko called on Russia to support his peace plan “with deeds, not words.” He urged Moscow to stop the flow of fighters from Russia.

BAGHDAD – Prominent Shiite leaders pushed Thursday for the removal of Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki as parliament prepared to start work next week on putting together a new government, under intense U.S. pressure to rapidly form a united front against an unrelenting Sunni insurgent onslaught.

Increasingly, the Shiite al-Maliki’s former allies believe he cannot lead an inclusive government that can draw minority Sunnis away from support for the fighters who have swept over a large swath of Iraq as they head toward the capital, Baghdad. In a further sign of Iraq’s unraveling along sectarian lines, a bombing on Thursday killed 12 people in a Shiite neighborhood of Baghdad that houses a revered shrine, and police found the bullet-riddled bodies of eight Sunnis south of the

capital.

Most crucially, though, backing for al-Maliki is weakening with his most important ally, neighboring Iran.

A senior Iranian general who met with Shiite politicians in Iraq during a 10-day visit this month returned home with a list of potential prime minister candidates for Iran’s leadership to consider, several senior Iraqi Shiite politicians who have knowledge of the general’s meetings told The Associated Press.

Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, wants al-Maliki to remain in his post, at least for now, the politicians said, but Iran’s moderate president, Hassan Rouhani, believes al-Maliki must go or else Iraq will fragment. Khamenei holds final say in all state matters in Iran, but the politicians expressed doubt he would insist on al-Maliki against overwhelming rejection of him by Iraq’s Shiite parties.

The general, Ghasem Soleimani, is expected to return

Challenger paving a new road for the modern ‘muscle car’

T

he Dodge brand marks its 100th anniversary this year, and with “purification” of the brand and consolidation with SRT ahead, Dodge is getting back to its performance roots with every model it offers.

The iconic five-passenger Challenger is no exception. Your choices to personalize include SXT, SXT Plus, Rallye Redline, R/T, R/T Plus and R/T Classic.

Every model is now available with a performance-tuned suspension, performance brake system and 20-in aluminum wheels with wider allseason performance tires.

Challenger SXT, SXT Plus and Rallye Redline models offer the 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine putting out 305 horsepower at 6,350 rpm and 268 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,800 rpm. R/T, R/T Plus and R/T Classic models feature the legendary 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 engine, with up to 375 horsepower and 410 lb.-ft. of torque, getting up to 25 miles per gallon with automatic transmission.

Step up to SRT, and you can get a Challenger that accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in the high 4-second

range; runs the quarter mile in mid12-second range with the automatic transmission (high 12-second range with the manual); goes from 0 to 100 to 0 mph in the low 15s, reaches a top speed of 182 mph with the manual transmission (175 mph with the automatic) and stops from 60 to 0 mph in just 117 feet.

You can have your SRT with the brawny 470-horsepower HEMI V-8 that offers Standard Fuel Saver Technology with an automatic transmission. This allows the engine to operate economically on four cylinders or the power of all eight cylinders when needed.

Estimated EPA fuel economy for SRT are 14 mpg city and 23 highway for either standard 6-speed manual or available automatic transmissions. A standard launch control system with either transmission helps maximize straight-line acceleration.

Challenger features more than 45 safety and security features, including the addition of ParkSense rear park assist system standard on SXT Plus, Rallye Redline and R/T models.

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

OUR VIEW: THUMBS UP/THUMBS DOWN

Thumbs up for caring for local kids The Herald-News Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs up and thumbs down: Thumbs up: to three Joliet men – Louis Hardwick Jr., Dwayne Ward and Terry Ward – as well as Lionel Meyer of Lockport. For the second year in a row, these men have offered Hoop It Up, a free, three-week, co-ed basketball camp for Fairmont area fifth- through eighth-graders, for children from families that can’t afford pricey basketball camps. These men have not asked for donations, preferring to pay for all costs from their own wallets. Nor did they limit the instruction to basketball. Within the framework of the game and by their consistent presence and actions, they showed these kids the necessity of practice, the rewards of hard work and the fact that someone believes in their potential enough to bless them with their presence.

Thumbs down: to Movoto Blog, a real estate brokerage website, for ranking New Lenox and Bolingbrook among the 10 most boring towns in Illinois. There is something askew with a ratings system that finds the 10 most boring and 10 most exciting places in Illinois all within the Chicago region. What the heck? What does the map of Illinois at Movoto Blog look like?

Bolingbrook has a regional shopping mall and a water park. New Lenox looks nothing like the cornfield and barn used to portray the village on Moboto Blog’s website. We have been around Illinois and seen a lot of towns, which is more than can be said for the people at Movoto Blog.

Thumbs up: to trying something new in downtown Joliet. Matt and Chris Czarnowski, part of The Steelman Group that owns three buildings in downtown Joliet, plan to launch a vintage pinball arcade on Chicago Street this summer.

The Czarnowskis see downtown Joliet, with its gritty urban feel and historic architecture, as a ripe environment for development. We couldn’t agree more, and we appreciate their faith in our community. We hope to see them succeed when their doors open next month.

Thumbs up: to the Supreme Court of the United States for ruling against unwarranted cellphone searches by police. A smartphone or cellphone is a now an extension of someone’s home; we store our memories, contacts, documents and more on these devices, therefore, it’s only fair to require police to obtain a search warrant similar to a home search. While we understand that cellphone data could provide time-sensitive information to investigators, and that the threat of erasure by a suspect is still prevalent, the ruling protects all Americans from unjustified confiscations.

THE FIRST AMENDMENT

Fifty years after Freedom Summer Today the phrase “Freedom Summer” has a romantic tint, colored in idealism, shaded in glory: a noble moment of grandeur when blacks and whites from Mississippi and beyond united in a brave effort to fight segregation and register blacks to vote.

But a half-century ago, the effort known formally as the Mississippi Summer Project was both audacious and dangerous.

Three civil rights workers were ambushed, kidnapped and killed.

Another died in a car crash.

Scores of Freedom Summer volunteers were beaten. Three-dozen churches were bombed or burned. The granite walls of resistance were only barely penetrated. And when the summer ended, the progress that we today regard as inevitable still seemed impossible.

But 50 summers on, we now recognize that this was one of the signature episodes in America’s

NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE David M. Shribman long story of racial strife and racial reconciliation.

It was a movement that was multifaith and multiracial but not really multigenerational. It was a youth campaign with almost no equal, except perhaps the flood of anti-war college students into New Hampshire for Eugene McCarthy’s presidential effort four years later – and there the principal obstacle was frigid temperatures and the only danger was icy stares.

This month, the anniversary of the movement’s start will bring forth a flood of testimonials but almost no reappraisals – for the effort was so pure in its purpose, so righteous in its goals, so wholesome in its intentions that, even in our contemporary cul-

ture of criticism, hardly anyone can condemn this mobilization of idealism.

As for the three who were abducted and then murdered, they are rightly remembered as martyrs to a sacred cause, and they are often remembered, surnames only, as if their names were the tolling of a bell: Chaney, Goodman, Schwerner.

The summer project was born out of despair, even desperation.

Mississippi was an isolated backwater of the Deep South, a world unto its own, determined to remain that way, to retain its ancient outlook, folkways and viewpoints, and to resist even the most tentative movements toward racial integration.

SUPPORT THE SLAMMERS

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Friday, June 27, 2014

To the Editor: It has become very obvious to those following our 2014 Joliet Slammers Baseball team that the entire organization has made tremendous improvements in all areas.

First the outstanding food quality and selection that includes family friendly prices is a huge positive step in the right direction.

The added entertainment venues, including several concerts and other community events, and the Joliet area Sports Hall of Fame inductions, has been very well-received. The Slammers noteworthy involvement and sponsorship of many charitable organizations/events has been

an absolute joy to see.

Finally, their incredible marketing efforts throughout the greater Joliet area deserves to be recognized in a very, very positive sense.

I certainly hope that these noted efforts result in increased attendance for this truly deserving organization. Joliet, this is your team! Please support it through your attendance at the next home stand! You certainly will not be disappointed.

WHY WE HAVE ZOOS To the Editor: Recently, I read an article asking why we have zoos. As I read it, I began to think of an answer.

We have zoos for people and animals. They are for people to be entertained and make them amazed. I once saw a snake shedding its skin there and I’ll never forget watching that.

Zoos help scientists and visitors understand more about animals than we ever could in the wild. Zoos help animals because most animals there are endangered. If there were no zoos then some of the animals there would probably become extinct. Most people’s favorite part of the zoo is the big cats.

If you were to want to see those but there were no zoos, what would you do? Go look in the wild to find them? Even if you watched videos, it wouldn’t be a live experience like it is at

the zoo.

And if we shouldn’t have zoos, then what about farms? Not the ones where farmers grow crops and raise livestock, but basically petting zoos just in one place and on a farm. Aren’t those kind of the same thing just not as many animals and different ones?

If we get rid of zoos then I say we get rid of petting zoos and farms.

PUPPY MILL POLICY NOT A GOOD THING To the Editor: Anna Payton, executive director of the Naperville Area

Humane Society advocates banning the sale of puppy mill puppies. I didn’t know Naperville had a puppy mill problem. Now we may have puppy mill police for Naperville.

Isn’t this already covered by an applicable federal, state or county agriculture law? How far will Naperville puppy police travel for inspections? This could result in some really nice junkets to interact with puppies for bureaucrats.

Unfortunately, Anna Payton’s policy will result in puppy mill puppies not finding a home and being euthanized.

Sincerely, Thomas Cechner Lockport

Freedom Summer was ‘tumultuous, thrilling, tragic’ • SHRIBMAN Continued from page 27 State College for her activism and instrumental in Freedom Summer: “This was a very important part of our history because blacks were being killed, segregation was at its highest peak, we could not get public utilities, we could not try on clothes in stores, our education was very poor,” she said in a conversation this spring. “We were not treated like human beings.”

This sense of hopelessness led her to support bringing outsiders to the state, surely to bear witness, perhaps to spur change. “We thought that college students from outside would bring along their parents, and their parents would bring along con-

gressmen, and congressmen would bring along the federal government,” she said.

Not all the outsiders were white. Some were like Charlie Cobb, born in Washington and reared in Springfield, Massachusetts, but with farm roots in Mississippi. He was field secretary for the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee at the time. This is his testimony, rendered on the phone this spring: “Freedom Summer focused for the first time the attention of the nation on Mississippi. The idea was to bring the nation’s children – mostly white, mostly middle-class or upper-middle-class children, many from politically connected families – to Mississippi and, as a result, the nation did look at Mississippi. That experience not only changed the

students. It also changed the nation.”

The mastermind of the effort was Robert Parris Moses, almost always known as Bob, then as now a figure of great probity and perspective. Beaten and bloodied but determined to change both Mississippi and the nation, he was at once combative and comforting, particularly after the three abductees were found buried six weeks after their disappearance. Today, at age 79, he believes the effects of Freedom Summer were profound: “It’s pretty clear now that it was absolutely critical, part of an earthquake. The March on Washington, Birmingham, Selma and Montgomery – they were mobilizing efforts around specific targets. The Mississippi theater was the only place where the whole state was the target.”

And it had vast political impact, eroding Dixiecrat control of Democratic Party, itself buttressed by a one-party system in Mississippi that gave the region outsized power on Capitol Hill and outsized influence on civil rights. Its power in Washington hobbled Washington’s ability to exercise power in Mississippi.

Then came the formation

of the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party. The group mounted a challenge to the state’s all-white delegation at the Democratic National Convention that summer in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

That, too, was a Bob Moses movement.

“All the social, political, cultural and economic factors in Mississippi were for decades controlled only

by Mississippi,” Moses said.

“The rest of the country had nothing to say about it. And that meant institutionalizing black inferiority and white supremacy in the state and across the South – until then.”

The phrase “Summer of Love” is customarily applied to the Haight-Ashbury section of San Francisco in 1967, though it somehow seems more appropriate to the more enduring activities of Freedom Summer.

But these were not summer soldiers and sunshine patriots – the phrase comes from Thomas Paine and an earlier American struggle for liberty – and their efforts did not end in 1964. Still, the Summer of ’64 – in many ways more important than the Summer of ’42, a time (and a movie) celebrated in American folklore – was a

sunshine moment.

The Mississippi project was inspired in part by two white men, Allard Lowenstein, who later led the “Dump Johnson” movement and served in Congress, and Robert Spike, executive director of the National Council of Churches’ Commission on Religion and Race, both credited by Moses for mobilizing student and church forces.

Later, interracial strife would bloom inside SNCC and new voices of black separatism such as Stokely Carmichael would emerge.

Within two years, Carmichael, later known as Kwame Ture, would replace John Lewis, a storied civil rights activist and now a Democratic congressman, at the top of the organization. Carmichael died in 1998.

But that summer – tumultuous, thrilling, tragic – a bunch of largely white students led by a largely black organization helped change Mississippi, and the country beyond. Freedom Summer was a summertime moment for us all.

“

IT’S GREAT TO BE ... PART OF THE TRANSITION IN THE SPORT.” Alexis DeJoria, Funny Car race driver

DeJoria making a name for herself in NHRA Currently 2nd in point standings, will race at Route 66 this weekend

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – It’s been a memorable year already for the women competitors in the National Hot Road Association, and there’s much more they should be able to accomplish since the season has only reached its midway mark.

As drivers get ready for this weekend’s O’Reilly Auto Parts Route 66 NHRA Nationals at Route 66 Raceway, the females have celebrated a number of historical events thus far.

Courtney Force became the 100th woman to win a race in a Mello Yello Drag Racing Series event when she won a Funny Car title at Topeka one month ago.

Erica Enders-Stevens has picked up wins at Las Vegas, Houston and Bristol to help her claim the points lead in Pro Stock while Angie Smith defeated her husband, Matt, last weekend at Epping, New Hampshire, in Pro Stock Motorcycle in the first title clash between spouses.

But another interesting story has developed this season in Funny Car, where Alexis DeJoria has not only joined 14 other women who have won NHRA events in one of its top four divisions, but captured two titles during a three-race stretch earlier this year.

After having advanced to just one previous final during her brief career, DeJoria’s three trips to the finals thus far in 2014 has helped her to claim second in the point standings.

A week ago at the New England Nationals, DeJoria moved into second place after finishing as the runner-up to Ron Capps.

Robert Hight, a four-time winner this year, leads the

She holds a three-point edge over 16-time champion John Force while Capps (-287), Tommy Johnson (-288), Courtney Force (-312) and Del Worsham (-325) are next in

line.

DeJoria is excited to be competing against the likes of John Force, the all-time NHRA winner in all races, as well as others who rank among the top-eight all-time in Funny Car victories, such

as Tony Pedregon, Capps, Cruz Pedregon, Hight and Worsham.

“I’m having a successful season so far and we’re only halfway through it, so I’m going race-by-race and staying focused and everything is

coming together well,” DeJoria said.

“I used to watch these guys on TV and eventually I knew that I’d be here. So, I still get excited to go up against them.”

After reaching her first final in Bristol in 2012, DeJoria didn’t make it that round last year but said her team started gaining confidence as last season concluded.

They were finally rewarded with a victory over Hight in the finals at Phoenix on Feb. 23 and with another win over Hight in the Las Vegas finals March 30.

Those titles put her in exclusive company among the women winners in the sport, and she’s quick to credit those who came before her.

“Success among women started long ago with Shirley Muldowney and no one has done it like her,” DeJoria said. “Also, Angelle Sampey is the winningest female while Courtney Force got the 100th win this year at Topeka. It’s great to be out there among the 100 winners and to be part of the transition in the sport.”

It’s not surprising that DeJoria is driven to success, considering she’s the daughter of John Paul DeJoria, who started from humble beginnings to become a billionaire philanthropist after co-founding John Paul Mitchell Systems and The Patron Spirits Company.

“There’s no room for failure in our family,” Alexis DeJoria said. “We were raised like that, to be go-getters. You had to earn it and that’s the approach that I’ve taken.”

She is quick to credit the support of the Kalitta Motorsports Patron XO Cafe Toyota Camry Funny Car team as she continues on her quest to make even more history this year.

“To come to where we are is super exciting,” DeJoria said. “I have so much respect for everyone on our team and for the people that I run against.”

• Tony Bucciferro (Minooka) is 6-5 with a 3.41 ERA for the White Sox’s A-Advanced team at Winston-Salem. He has allowed 97 hits and only nine walks while striking out 67 in 92 1/3 innings. The Sox’s parent club could use some pitchers with Bucciferro’s strikeout-to-walk ratio.

Elena Delle Donne missed five games with Lyme disease.

Both stars were back for Wednesday’s game against Connecticut.

Through the difficult times, guard Allie Quigley (JCA) has continued to contribute. She is averaging 22.4 minutes, 9.4 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.9 assists while shooting .410 from the field, .367 from three-point range and .875 from the free throw line.

• Running back Malin Jones (JCA), who recently was granted a release from his scholarship at Northwestern, is transferring to Louisville.

The red-shirt sophomore has three seasons of eligibility remaining. He was suspended from the team at Northwestern last Nov. 20 for violating team rules. He returned to the team for spring practice, after which he decided to transfer to another school.

• With tight end Dwayne Allen returning after missing all of last season with a hip injury, the playing time may be lessened for Coby Fleener (JCA) with the Indianapolis Colts.

Or, maybe not. Colts coach Chuck Pagano has said Fleener and Allen will be on the field a lot, sometimes together. However, Fleener probably will be blocking more and perhaps catching fewer passes.

Last season, he grabbed 52 for 608 yards, an 11.7 average, and four touchdowns.

The eyes of the world were on the USA-Germany World Cup soccer game Thursday.

The Cubs game against the Washington Nationals at 3:05 p.m. Friday at Wrigley Field pales in comparison.

However, if you follow Joliet area baseball, you may want to figure out a way to view that game, as well.

That’s because Wilmington graduate Tanner Roark will be on the mound for the Nationals, opposing Jason Hammel.

Hammel, of course, has been pitching very well for the Cubs. But Roark has been even better. In his last nine starts dating back to May 10, he has gone 5-3 with an 1.89 ERA. In 57 innings in that span, he has allowed 45 hits and 12 earned runs while walking 13 and striking out 41.

Overall, Roark is 7-4 with a 2.79 ERA in 932⁄3 innings.

The right-hander generally has been referred to as the Nationals’ fifth starter. There are 29 other major league teams that would love that kind of production from their fifth starter.

Coal City gets change of pace at Joliet West Shootout

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Friday, June 27, 2014

32

By TIM TIERNEY Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – Coach Brad Boresi wanted a change of offseason scenery for his Coal City basketball team.

The Coalers used to participate in the Braidwood Shootout to work on their summer game, but Boresi brought the squad north last weekend to the Joliet West Shootout and a different field of 32 schools.

“We get a chance to play teams we don’t normally,’’ Boresi said between games on the first day. “The Braidwood Shootout the past couple years, 11 of the 12 Interstate Eight teams are there. It’s a nice change of pace to come here.

“Seeing teams you’re not accustomed to seeing, the way they play, the speed of the game. Us being one of the smaller 3A schools, if we have the opportunity to see that pace of a game during the summer, it will only help us during the season.’’

Each team played six games with 20-minute halves and a running clock during the two-day event at Joliet West. Coal City faced Phillips and Minooka early June 20 before an 11 a.m. game against Joliet West.

“I think it’s a lot better competition,’’ said senior forward Segal Arias, a returning starter. “It’s going to help our team tremendously when the season comes.’’

The Coalers returned Saturday afternoon to play Lockport and Manteno in back-to-back games and then Lincoln-Way North after a one-hour break in the nontournament setup.

“I like that,’’ Boresi said of the format. “You know you’re playing six games, they’re scheduled, you know what time.

“It makes it easier because if there is a football event in the morning, the kids can play football. They don’t have to wait to see how we do to see what time we play.’’

Coal City’s Isaiah Washington fights off Minooka’s defense during the Joliet West Summer Shootout on June 20. to let his team know in April what the summer schedule will be so players don’t miss any events.

While improving skills can be a visible part of summer shootout events, forming team chemistry and court awareness among players also is a valuable element of the offseason competition.

“We have to see who’s going to step up, who can play under pressure,’’ Arias said.

“It’s everything. It’s not just basketball.’’

“It’s a chance for the kids to be together, kind of get to know some of the underclassmen a little better, just the overall experience,’’ Boresi said.

Coal City lost a lot of experience with the graduation of 6-foot-8 center Nick Peters and point guard Brennen Shetina.

The four-year varsity players were vital to Coal City winning 36 games over the past two seasons.

regional title in 12 years in 2013 and this past season the Coalers won the conference tournament with victories over Seneca and Reed-Custer.

Although the season ended with a loss in the semifinals of the Class 3A Prairie Central Regional, Coal City returns Arias and Nick Micetich to the starting lineup from the 17-10 team.

Big-time football prospect Matt Long and fellow senior Kurtis Smith are varsity returnees and sophomore Christian Johnson could be a player to watch. Seniors Tyler Brewer and Isaiah Washington also will be counted on for minutes.

“A lot of playing time to be earned when the season rolls around, a lot of learning to do this summer,’’ Boresi said.

“We’ve taken big steps,’’ Arias said. “A couple years ago, we weren’t very good.

Now we’ve had winning seasons. We’re trying to continue that.’’

Coal City’s Matt Long dribbles the ball against Minooka at the Shootout.

Long is one of the veterans returning this season for the Coalers.

NBA DRAFT

By ANDREW SELIGMAN The Associated Press

By BRIAN MAHONEY The Associated Press NEW YORK – With Andrew Wiggins at No. 1, it was a big night for Canada and Kansas. And it better be the right one for the Cavaliers.

Cleveland went north of the border to open the NBA draft for the second straight year Thursday night, hoping Wiggins works out better than Anthony Bennett.

Thrilled to go first and even happier when Jayhawks teammate Joel Embiid went two picks later, Wiggins beamed in his black tuxedo jacket with a white floral pattern.

“A thousand thoughts are going through my head right now,” Wiggins said. “It’s a dream come true.”

Bennett was injured last summer, came into the season out of shape and made no impact, one of the reasons the Cavs were back in this spot again.

But Wiggins seems a much more ready product after averaging a Kansas freshman-record 17.1 points.

He might have ended up as the top pick anyway, but became the best option for the Cavs when Embiid suffered a stress fracture in his right foot shortly before the draft.

Andrew Wiggins of Kansas hugs NBA commissioner Adam Silver after being selected Thursday by the Cleveland Cavaliers as the No. 1 pick in the 2014 NBA Draft in New York. the only country besides the U.S. to have consecutive No. 1 picks, Wiggins slipped on a maroon Cleveland hat, hugged his supporters and went on stage to shake hands with Commissioner Adam Silver, who was calling the first round for the first time since replacing David Stern.

Milwaukee followed with another freshman, Duke forward Jabari Parker, who on Wednesday disputed that he was out of shape for his workout with Cleveland and performed poorly.

Some consider him the more NBA-ready player after an All-American season for the Blue Devils, and getting to play in Milwaukee puts him near his family in Chicago.

“I’m just very optimistic,” Parker said. “If it was 1, 2, put me at 60, just getting that opportunity, getting that chance of being in the NBA.” Embiid went third to Philadelphia, drawing loud cheers from the many redand-blue dressed 76ers fans who made the trip to Barclays Center in Brooklyn, as well as from Philadelphia guard Michael Carter-Williams, last season’s Rookie of the Year who was sitting on the arena floor level.

The 76ers had two top-10 picks and could afford to take a chance on Embiid, the big man who may have ended up the top prize despite his lone season at Kansas ending early because of a bad back.

MLB ROUNDUP Ruggiano’s 2-run double leads Cubs CHICAGO – Justin Ruggiano’s two-out, two-run double broke a tie in the seventh inning, leading the Cubs to a 5-3 victory over the Washington Nationals on Thursday night.

Starlin Castro had two RBIs and Anthony Rizzo went 3 for 4 with two doubles and a run scored.

The Cubs had dropped four of five games before the win.

Neither starter was involved in the decision. The Cubs’ Travis Wood gave up three runs on seven hits in 62⁄3 innings and was hurt most by five walks.

Washington’s Doug Fister also allowed three runs on seven hits.

Cubs reliever Neil Ramirez (1-1) got the win and Hector Rondon pitched a perfect ninth for his ninth save.

Cubs center fielder Junior Lake had to leave in the second

inning after crashing into a door in the outside wall at Wrigley Field chasing a drive by Ryan Zimmerman. The wall is not covered with ivy. The Cubs said Lake has shown no signs of a concussion and has some bruises, including one on his head.

Lind leads way as Blue Jays beat White Sox TORONTO – Adam Lind had three hits and three RBIs, J.A.

Happ pitched a season-high 7 2-3 innings and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the White Sox, 7-0, Thursday night.

Jose Reyes had four hits and scored twice as the AL East-leading Blue Jays handed the struggling Sox their seventh loss in eight games. The Sox lost for the 10th time in 11 road games.

The Sox were blanked for the sixth time.

The Sox lost center fielder

Adam Eaton in the first inning with cramps in his left leg.

Eaton was replaced by Leury Garcia.

Starting for the first time since May 19, Sox right-hander Scott Carroll (2-4) allowed five runs and nine hits in five innings. Carroll, who walked two and struck out four, returned to the rotation in place of Andre Rienzo, who was moved to the bullpen.

DEERFIELD – The Bulls may have found an answer to their dire need of some offense.

The Bulls acquired the draft rights to Creighton forward Doug McDermott on Thursday night, allowing them to turn their attention to a bigger move. A trade for Kevin Love? How about adding Carmelo Anthony in free agency?

Those moves sure would jolt a low-scoring team that clawed its way to 48 wins despite losing franchise player Derrick Rose to another season-ending knee injury. This is a start, though.

The Nuggets took McDermott at No. 11 and dealt him to the Bulls for the 16th and 19th picks, a person familiar with the situation said on condition of anonymity because the deal has not been announced.

McDermott led the nation in scoring last season with a 26.7 average and shot 52.6 percent from the field, including 44.9 percent from 3-point range. He finished his college career as basketball’s fifth-leading scorer and was selected The Associated Press player of the year.

He joins a team that shot a league-low 43.2 percent and relied heavily on its stingy defense. When Rose, the former

MVP, tore the meniscus in his right knee in his 10th game, it cut short his comeback after he sat out last season while recovering from a torn ACL in his left knee. It also forced the Bulls to shift gears.

Instead of challenging Miami for supremacy in the Eastern Conference, they traded away Luol Deng.

Despite all that, they still reached the playoffs but got knocked out by Washington in the first round.

Now, they’re in position to make some big additions.

Miami suddenly looks vulnerable after getting pounded

by San Antonio in the finals, and with LeBron James opting out of his contract, the Eastern Conference could be up for grabs whether he stays with the Heat or not.

The Bulls figures to have $11 million to $12 million in cap space if they amnesty Carlos Boozer with his $16.8 million salary, or they could package him in a trade with one year left on his contract.

NBA Sixth Man of the Year runner-up Taj Gibson and the rights to Real Madrid star Nikola Mirotic could also be attractive to other teams. Mike Dunleavy Jr. might also be expendable with McDermott in the mix.

If they don’t land a star in a trade or free agency, the Bulls figure to try to bring over Mirotic and build depth in free agency.

WORLD CUP: GERMANY 1, U.S. 0

moving ahead on the second tiebreaker, goals scored. But then Cristiano Ronaldo put the Portuguese back ahead in the 80th, giving the Americans a little margin for error.

On the sideline, U.S. goalkeeper coach Chris Woods used his fingers to signal “21” to goalkeeper Tim Howard.

But Howard was unsure which team was ahead.

“Then Woods gave the thumbs up – in our favor,” Besler said.

Around the same time, the American fans behind the goal defended by Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer started cheering, having learned of Ronaldo’s goal from whatever electronic device they had brought along.

“Kind of calmed me down the last five minutes a little bit,” U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann said.

The Americans advance to a round-of-16 game Tuesday in Salvador against Belgium.

RECIFE, Brazil – They heard about people back home watching during their lunch breaks, streaming on office computers or playing hooky with fellow fans. And then, as the bus pulled away from the hotel Thursday, the U.S. World Cup team was struck with an unusual sight.

Hundreds, maybe thousands of fans in red, white and blue, walking for miles around stalled cars through nearly hip-high water along streets and highways, making their way to the stadium to cheer them on.

“That kind of passion to root us on is what really helps drive us,” defender Omar Gonzalez said. “Now we give them another game to go to.”

No dramatic late goals in this one. Not even a win.

But despite a 1-0 loss to Germany, the United States was

good enough to advance to the knockout stage of consecutive World Cups for the first time and good enough to hold onto the national attention that soccer has finally grabbed in America.

“I’m getting emails from people who work at companies where the executives have called a three-hour break and put on giant screens,” U.S. Soccer Federation President Sunil Gulati said. “All of this ... is pretty extraordinary, and that will build for the next few days.”

Thomas Mueller scored off a rebound in the 55th minute to give Germany first place in Group C with seven points, but the Americans held onto second when Portugal defeated Ghana 2-1 in a game played simultaneously in Brasilia.

Two minutes after Mueller’s goal, Asamoah Gyan tied the score, leaving the Black Stars one goal from tying the U.S. with four points and

‘We put a lot of love and care in it’ Plainfield native Melissa McCarthy stars in the comedy she co-wrote with husband

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com

P

LAINFIELD – When Melissa McCarthy is honored with a Hand and Footprint Ceremony on Hollywood Boulevard, she hopes to wear a pair of shoes by another Joliet-area native, Brian Atwood.

“Brian has been my best friend since high school and he makes an awfully pretty shoe,” said McCarthy, a Plainfield native. “He’s the one that invited me to New York City and pushed me to do standup.”

The ceremony is scheduled for Wednesday in the forecourt of the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre on Hollywood Boulevard, according to information from McCarthy’s management company. This is the same day McCarthy’s new movie, “Tammy,” opens.

“Tammy” is an exciting first for McCarthy. She wrote the screenplay for this comedy with her husband Ben Falcone, the movie’s director. She also plays Tammy, a woman having a really awful day.

To escape her troubles – the totaled clunker car, being fired from a “greasy burger joint” and finding her husband frolicking with the neighbor – Tammy grabs her boom box and joins forces with her grandmother, Pearl (Susan Sarandon), who has the cash, the car and “an itch to see Niagara Falls,” the news release from McCarthy’s management group stated.

Because she and Falcone created plausible characters and pulled their ideas from real-life situations who aren’t “perfect and shiny,” McCarthy is certain audiences will relate to Tammy’s struggles and bewilderment.

“It’s really, really funny,” McCarthy said McCarthy said “Tammy” was a six-year project for her and Falcone, as they hand-

Plainfield native Melissa McCarthy (center) plays the lead in “Tammy,” a comedy McCarthy wrote with her husband Ben Falcone, about a woman having a really bad day. picked each member of the cast and crew. Everyone they asked wanted in, dispelling their doubts of “there isn’t a chance in the world this person would read it.”

“We got the cast of our dreams,” McCarthy said. “We put a lot of love and care in it and everyone had the same vision.”

According to the news release, “Tammy” also stars Allison Janney (“The West Wing”), playing Tammy’s world-weary mom, Deb; Gary Cole (“Veep”) as ladies man, Earl; and Mark Duplass (HBO’s “Togetherness”) as his son, Bobby.

There’s also Dan Aykroyd (“The Campaign”) as Tammy’s dad, Don; Academy Award winner Kathy Bates (“Misery,” “Midnight in Paris”)

as Pearl’s fun-loving cousin, Lenore; Sandra Oh (“Grey’s Anatomy”) as Lenore’s partner, Susanne; Oscar nominee Toni Collette (“The Sixth Sense”) as Tammy’s neighbor, Missi; and Pat Faxon (“Bad Teacher”) as Tammy’s husband, Greg.

McCarthy credits her extended family with molding her unique brand of humor.

McCarthy said she grew up in a household that was anything but serious and she’s simply carrying on a good tradition.

“My dad can tell a story 15 times – 50 times – and every single time, it’s hilarious,” McCarthy said. “At mealtimes, we would tell stories about what happened in our day.

The goal was to make everyone else laugh.”

Other great memories include attending the former St. Francis Academy (now Joliet Catholic Academy), enjoying high school football games, stopping for sandwiches at the former Sub Diggity on West Jefferson Street in Joliet and “all the crazy things I did with my friends.”

Drawing on her experiences, McCarthy’s entry into show business was through stand-up comedy. She eventually transitioned into TV and film. Humor, McCarthy said, can help people forget their troubles.

“Tammy,” McCarthy is certain, is no exception.

“I just want them to have a great time,” McCarthy said, “and hopefully, their stomachs will hurt from laughing.”

McCarthy at a glance • She received an Oscar nomination for her role as Megan in “Bridesmaids,” an Emmy nomination for her starring role on the hit CBS comedy “Mike & Molly,” and two Emmy nominations for hosting “Saturday Night Live.”

• Last year, McCarthy starred in “The Heat,” opposite Sandra Bullock and in the comedy hit “Identity Thief,” alongside Jason Bateman.

• In October, she will appear in “St. Vincent,” starring alongside Bill Murray and Naomi Watts.

• Aside from developing numerous film and television projects, McCarthy is designing her first clothing line.

County duo Thompson Square to perform at Taste of Joliet

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Award-winning husband/wife country duo Thompson Square is returning to Joliet on Saturday, officially this time.

Keifer and Shawna Thompson had actually visited Joliet last week, but not to perform. The Thompsons were traveling from one performance to the next and Joliet was on the way.

“We had a day off,” Shawna said, “so our drivers rested and we hung out at the mall.”

Shawna is thrilled she and Keifer are part of this year’s Taste of Joliet and feels their show has something to offer loyal fans, as well as music lovers looking to hear something new.

“There’s a lot of guitars and it’s very high energy,” Keifer said. “It’s not a boring show, that’s for sure.”

Married for 15 years, the Thompsons met each other in 1996 after they both relocated to Nashville – Shawna from Alabama and Keifer from Oklahoma – and participated in the same singing competition.

“We’ve been singing to-

It’s been a sweet ride.

Thompson Square’s breakthrough, Grammy-nominated song, “Are You Gonna

Kiss Me or Not?” has earned more than $2 million in sales.

“Everything I Shouldn’t be Thinking About” was a Top 5 U.S. Country Radio hit, according to a news release

from the duo’s management company.

In 2012, both the Academy of Country Music and the Country Music Association named Thompson Square “Vocal Duo of the Year” and ACM repeated that honor in 2013, according to that same release.

The couple also has released a novel based on their song, “Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not?” They also are the celebrity ambassadors of ChildFund International.

The couple is working on a new album, scheduled for release in November 2014, Shauna said. Unfamiliar with Thompson Square? Expect plenty of enthusiastic audience participation, Keifer said.

Fans love to sing along with the duo and not just the familiar hit singles.

“They know a lot of the album tracks, too,” Shauna said.

This couple’s mutual love of cooking and great food makes Taste of Joliet the perfect venue for Thompson Square. When the Thompsons are not performing, they intend to do plenty of tasting.

“We’re up for whatever is there,” Shawna said.

“JERSEY BOYS” STARRING: John Lloyd Young, Erich Bergen and Michael Lomenda

PLOT: The story of four young men from the wrong side of the tracks in New Jersey who came together to form the iconic 1960s rock group The Four Seasons.

RATED: R for language throughout TIME: 2 hours, 14 minutes VERDICT: Movies of musicals are usually a crash course for Hollywood A-listers. Actors not known for their singing skills are suddenly expected to warble their way through a story.

You see Meryl Streep shimmying and strutting to Abba in “Mamma Mia!” and Renee Zellweger hitting the high notes in “Chicago,” Johnny Depp cutting hair and throats while channeling Sondheim in “Sweeney Todd” and Hugh Jackman making us weep as Jean Valjean in “Les Miserables.” And what about the Broadway superstars who gave the musicals the cachet to warrant the film adaptations? They’re still performing night after night onstage, since their names aren’t recognizable enough to score big box office numbers – much less get proper introductions at the Oscars (ahem, Adele Dazeem). “Jersey Boys” is an exception. The most recognizable stars in Clint Eastwood’s adaptation of the Tony-winning play about the 1960s band the Four Seasons are Christopher Walken and that guy from “The Sopranos” (who upon post-movie Googling turns out to be Steve Schirripa). John Lloyd Young plays Frankie Valli, a role the actor originated on Broadway.

He won a Tony for his work, but this is only his second feature film after a 2009 romantic comedy called “Oy Vey!

My Son Is Gay!” Young might not be a household name, but he can sing and act onstage and on camera. And the rest of the cast is also made up of musical theater talent: Michael Lomenda, who plays the deep-voiced Nick Massi, and Erich Bergen, as singer-songwriter Bob Gaudio, both return to roles they played during the show’s first national tour. The fourth band member, Tommy DeVito, is played by “Boardwalk Empire” regular Vincent Piazza. The cast list isn’t the only way Eastwood stays true to the original incarnation. Seeing the movie onscreen is a lot like seeing it in a playhouse – and that’s OK. After all, the story is dramatic, with its tale of kids from a rough neighborhood who shoot to fame. Plus, the dialogue is witty and the music is phenomenal.

The movie, like the play, also overstuffs the plot. Overall though, fans of the play will be pleased. And for those who love the Four Seasons’ music but haven’t made it to the play, this is a much more affordable way to very nearly re-create the experience. – The

“THINK LIKE A MAN TOO” STARRING: Kevin Hart, Gabrielle Union, Wendi McLendon-Covey

PLOT: All the couples are back for a wedding in Las Vegas, but plans for a romantic weekend go awry when their various misadventures get them into some compromising situations that threaten to derail the big event.

RATED: PG-13 for crude sexual content including references, partial nudity, language and drug material TIME: 1 hour, 46 minutes VERDICT: And I told myself I wouldn’t laugh. “Think Like a Man Too,” the derivative, intermittently amusing follow-up to the surprise hit romcom from 2012, is so frenetically paced and hysterically pitched that it makes almost no room for simple enjoyment. Propelled by a screaming voice-over performance from Kevin Hart and director Tim Story’s hyper-emphatic approach to everything from line readings to editing and music, this ensemble enterprise – about four couples experiencing the ups and downs of girl-guy relationships – comes at the audience like a fire hose, assaulting them with endless chatter and parallel action until we just want to beg everyone involved simply to slow down and let themselves breathe.

Such are the uneven but distinctive pleasures of “Think Like a Man

Too,” which finds the original film’s accomplished, spectacularly attractive cast still young and gorgeous two years down the road. Dominic and Lauren (Michael Ealy, Taraji P. Henson) are happily ensconced as a couple, their class differences settled for the moment; college sweethearts Jeremy and Kristen (Jerry Ferrara, Gabrielle Union) are trying for a baby, at least in between Jeremy’s bong hits; Zeke and Mya (Romany Malco, Meagan Good) are still together, despite Zeke’s checkered past as a quintessential player; and Michael and Candace (Terrence Jenkins, Regina Hall) are getting married – in Las Vegas, where the whole crew has gathered for the ceremony and night-before festivities. Like the first film – based on Steve Harvey’s self-help book “Act Like a Lady But Think Like a Man” – this installment falls prey to all manner of gender stereotypes. The movie ultimately lands like a thinly veiled lecture, with Hart helpfully delivering the moral upshot – about compromise, sacrifice and letting go of the past – just in case someone in the audience accidentally ingested one of Jeremy’s THC-infused breath strips.– The Washington Post

“HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON 2” STARRING: Jay Baruchel, Cate Blanchett, Gerard Butler

PLOT: When Hiccup and Toothless discover an ice cave that is home to hundreds of new wild dragons and the mysterious Dragon Rider, the two friends find themselves at the center of a battle to protect the peace.

RATED: PG for adventure action and some mild rude humor TIME: 1 hour, 42 minutes VERDICT: You thought it was tricky to train a dragon? It’s even trickier to take a much-admired animated film and make a sequel that feels satisfying and worthwhile. It’s nice to be able to report that “How to Train Your Dragon 2,” written and directed by Dean DeBlois, does all that tricky stuff pretty darned well. And you’ll be happily surprised at the new twists it takes – sort of like getting an unexpected second candy bar in the vending machine.

“How to Train Your Dragon 2” doesn’t play it safe, and that’s why it’s the rare sequel that doesn’t feel somewhat stale. The story returns us to Berk, where our young Viking hero, Hiccup (again voiced by Jay Baruchel), lives and frolics with his devoted dragon,

Toothless, whom he befriended in the first movie, with momentous ramifications for human-dragon relations.

Five years have passed, and now Berk is a virtual playground for dragons and Vikings alike. Hiccup, though, isn’t into the games – he’s attracted to the beautiful skies and spends his time exploring them, aboard Toothless, adding to the map he’s making of the world.

His first scene of airborne frolic with Toothless is absolutely beautiful, and a sign of the visual delights to come.

Hiccup’s restless nature, though, is at odds with the aspirations of his burly father, Stoick the Vast (a sweetly gruff Gerard Butler), who wants Hiccup to take up new responsibilities. But Hiccup doesn’t feel leadership is really his thing. That’s what he tells spunky Astrid (America Ferrera, back from the first film), who is now his girlfriend, as well as a fellow explorer. (Other famous returning voices are Jonah Hill as Snotlout and Kristen Wiig as Ruffnut.) One day Hiccup and Astrid make an ominous discovery: A trapper’s fort. Eret, son of Eret (Kit Harington) is cocky and ambitious. But his boss?

He’s evil. That would be Drago Bludvist (Djimon Hounsou), a vicious villain who’s building a dragon army. Hiccup resolves to stop him. And someone else, he learns – a mysterious figure in the skies – is also fighting Drago. Her name is Valka, and she is, shockingly, none other than Hiccup’s mother, long presumed dead. In fact, Valka – voiced

by Cate Blanchett in an elegant, otherworldly accent – has spent these long years saving dragons. For a while, it seems like a perfect family reunion.

But happiness is short-lived. Valka doesn’t believe, as her family does, that dragons can live with humans – humans can be too cruel. And Drago, with his violent plans, is proving her right. Without giving away too much, this is where the film travels into darker areas than its predecessor, displaying an admirable maturity. Many animated tales involve dashing acts of bravery, but rarely do they show the possible tragic consequences of such acts. Many tears will be shed over the scene where Hiccup learns that bad things can happen to good people. And there’s another lesson here, too: People – or creatures – who love you sometimes can still hurt you.

Animated films for kids don’t routinely address such matters. Kudos to the creators here, who took a terrific first film and made a sequel that, both visually and thematically, lives up to that promise.– The Associated Press

• Friday, June 27, 2014

his daughter make a discovery that brings down the Autobots and Decepticons – and a paranoid government offical – on them.

RATED: PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi violence and action, language and brief innuendo TIME: 2 hours, 45 minutes VERDICT: Crash. Shatter. Boom. Crash.

Shatter. Boom. Smattering of silly dialogue. Pretty girl screams: “Dad!” Crash. Shatter. Boom. What? Oh, sorry.

We were falling into a trance there.

Which is, dear moviegoer, what may happen to you during Michael Bay’s “Transformers: Age of Extinction,” the fourth “Transformers” film and, at 165 minutes, precariously close to the three-hour mark. Despite what you’ve just read, this film likely will be a massive hit because by now, if you’re buying a “Transformers” ticket, you surely know what you’re getting into, and you want more, more, more. And Bay is the Master of More. Or just take it from the 11-year-old sitting next to me, who reserved any audible judgment until the moment he saw a Transformer become a dinosaur. Overwhelmed by the pairing, he proclaimed: “That’s the sickest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.”

This time, there’s a whole new human cast. Most important, Mark Wahlberg has replaced Shia LaBeouf as, well, Main Human Guy, and the good news is that Wahlberg’s grounded quality, rough charm and really nice biceps make him a thoroughly welcome presence. The bad news: He isn’t immune to the numbing effects of some desperately cheesy dialogue. A significant part of the movie also takes place in China – clearly a nod to the franchise’s huge market there. We begin in Paris, Texas, where Cade Yeager (Wahlberg), a struggling inventor, is desperately seeking a big discovery. He’s also a widowed dad, and super-protective (as the movie incessantly reminds us) of his high-school daughter, Tessa (Nicola Peltz, blond and pretty and ineffective, though the one-note script does her no favors). One day, Cade buys a rusty old truck. Examining it back home, he soon discovers it’s none other than Optimus Prime, the Autobot hero, seriously damaged. As Cade works on fixing him up, his assistant, wisecracking surfer-dude Lucas (T.J. Miller, mildly amusing), has the dumb idea of calling the authorities. What he doesn’t know is that the government

– actually, the head of CIA black ops, Harold Attinger (Kelsey Grammer, expertly villainous) – is plotting to destroy all remaining Autobots in favor of a man-made army of Transformers.

He’s being helped in this endeavor by the shadowy KSI corporation, run by the nasty-but-complicated Joshua Joyce (Stanley Tucci, giving the most entertaining performance in the film).

So now, it’s evil humans pitted against the trustworthy Autobots. You can try to follow the ins and outs of the battling forces or just watch things crash into each other, blow up, or both. The final confrontation alone lasts close to an hour, and at some point, you might find yourself simply in a daze, unable to absorb any further action into your brain. But one viewer’s migraine is another’s euphoria. You decide.– The

PUZZLES CROSSWORD

SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Take one turn or the other

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Gary Player said, “A good golfer has the determination to win and the patience to wait for the breaks.”

At the bridge table, the break in one suit can influence how declarer plays. In this example deal, South is in four spades.

West cashes his three top clubs, then shifts to the heart three.

How should declarer continue after taking East’s queen with his ace?

North, despite having a balanced hand, raises to two spades with three good trumps because he is very weak in an unbid suit. If his side belongs in three no-trump, probably South should be the declarer. And here, when South jumps to four spades, he ought to have at least a five-card suit so that he can guarantee an eight-card fit.

South has nine top tricks: five spades, one heart and three diamonds. He needs to establish a fourth diamond trick. This will be easy if diamonds are breaking 3-3, but if they are 4-2, declarer will have to ruff a diamond in his hand, draw trumps and be in the dummy to cash the last two diamonds.

The key question is: How are the trumps dividing?

South cashes his spade queen, then plays a spade to dummy’s king. If they split 4-1, declarer will have to draw trumps and hope that the diamonds divide 3-3. Here, though, he next plays a diamond to his ace, returns a diamond to dummy’s queen, ruffs a diamond high in his hand, leads a spade to dummy’s ace (drawing West’s last trump), and cashes the diamond king and six for his contract.

ADVICE Leftover lingerie still lingers in drawers Dear Abby: I have been seeing my boyfriend for five months. He still has some of his ex-girlfriend’s lingerie in his dresser. When we first got involved, he showed it to me and asked if I wanted any. I said no thanks.

Now that I’m more invested in the relationship, I’d like him to get rid of it. He is currently out of town, traveling for a month.

Would it be inappropriate for me to throw away these “trinkets?” – Setting Boundaries In Arizona Dear Setting Boundaries: Yes, I think it would be inappropriate.

Although, your boyfriend will probably tell you to go ahead and get rid of it if it bothers you.

Dear Abby: I was recently told by a neighbor that if he wasn’t married, he would make a pass at me. It made me feel kind of bad, especially the next day when I saw his wife.

My niece said I shouldn’t feel

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips bad because it was a compliment and I should be glad I still attract attention at 60. My feeling is, if you think about it – it’s infidelity.

Am I wrong or too stringent in my thinking? – Old-Fashioned Lady In Oregon Dear Old-Fashioned: I think what your neighbor said was less “infidelity” than “lust in his heart.”

But in a sense, he did make a pass because when he said what he did, he signaled to you that he could be interested.

Cut him some slack this time and chalk it up to having been paid a compliment. But if he says it again, tell him it bothers you.

Dear Abby: My fiance, “Todd,” and I just became engaged and are

starting to plan our wedding. The problem is his father is remarried to a terrible woman. Todd grew up with her, but he can’t stand her, and I feel the same way.

I gave her a chance, but she got drunk – something she does often – and insulted my mother.

Obviously, my mother and Todd are my priorities.

Todd and I do not want her at our wedding. How do we make it clear that we love his dad and want him there, but his wife is not welcome? – Nervous Bride-To-Be In Florida Dear Nervous: You and Todd should talk to his father and express your concerns that his wife’s unpredictable behavior could ruin your wedding. He may agree to attend alone or choose to skip the wedding.

Laparoscopy involves smaller incision, faster recovery Dear Doctor K: I need to have surgery in my abdominal area.

My surgeon said he can do it “laparoscopically.” What does that mean?

Dear Reader: It is good news.

It means that the surgery you’ll have will involve cutting through less tissue, and it will be easier to recover.

Forty years ago, abdominal surgery would have required a relatively large incision. The surgeon had no way of looking at your insides and seeing what needed to be fixed or cut out. He or she had to open you up wide to get a good look, and to get his or her surgical instruments inside your body.

Laparoscopic surgery is done through much smaller incisions.

It’s sometimes called “keyhole” surgery, or “minimally invasive” surgery. Because the incision is smaller, laparoscopic surgery tends to be less painful and leave smaller scars. Recovery is faster, and there is a reduced risk of serious bleeding.

Today’s laparoscopes are remarkable feats of mechanical engineering; they have revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. Laparoscopes are flexible tubes. At the tip of the tube are a light and a camera

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff that sends a picture to a television screen. The doctor monitors his or her work on this screen.

Also at the tip of the tube are the tiny surgical instruments that perform the surgery – for example, graspers to hold tissue firmly and scissors to cut the tissue.

Laparoscopic abdominal surgery is done in an operating room under general anesthesia. The surgeon inserts the laparoscope through a very small incision, less than an inch long – like a keyhole.

The incision is usually made in or just below the navel. A gas such as carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide is pumped into the abdomen. This helps lift your abdominal wall off of your pelvic and abdominal organs, and allows the camera to view the organs clearly.

At this point, the surgeon makes additional small incisions through which he or she can insert surgical instruments. The placement of these incisions depends on the procedure.

Your surgeon can use a wide variety of surgical instruments.

These include instruments to cut

or clip internal structures or burn away scar tissue. Other instruments may be used to remove small biopsy samples or even entire internal organs. (Organs are often removed in smaller pieces so that larger incisions are not needed.)

At the end of the surgery, the surgeon withdraws the instruments, removes the gas and stitches the incisions closed.

Patients recover much more easily from laparoscopic surgery than regular (open) abdominal surgery because the incisions are smaller. The risk of complications from anesthesia is smaller as well.

That is because most laparoscopic surgeries are fairly simple and don’t require extended anesthesia.

For many laparoscopic procedures, you can go home on the day of your surgery.

Doctors and biological scientists, not surprisingly, have made most of the great advances in medicine over the past century. But don’t forget the engineers. They gave us the CT and MRI scans, for example. And the laparoscope.

Teen proud to be a virgin Dr. Wallace: After reading the letter from the girl whose boyfriend is pressuring her into having sex, I decided to speak my mind. I am 19 and proud to say that I’m a virgin. In this day and age of abortion and rampant sexually transmitted diseases, a girl must think with her brain rather than allow her hormones to make critical decisions. When I hear terrible stories about the predicaments of others, I’m relieved to know that I don’t have to worry about such things. I’ve had several close relationships with guys and they all respected me and never pressured me to be sexually active.

I’m writing this letter to all girls who feel pressured into having sex. Never – never – allow anyone to pressure you into doing something that you don’t want to do. One careless moment can cause a lifetime of regret. – Nameless, DeKalb Dear Nameless: Thanks so much for your letter. So often teens get involved in sex because they believe everyone else is sexually active. It just isn’t so, and you’re living proof.

Dr. Wallace: I’m 16 and a pretty good kid. Yes, I have tried alcohol and marijuana, but I’m not addicted to anything. In fact, I haven’t tried alcohol or marijuana in over five months. I have experimented with this stuff just to find out what it felt like to try them.

Actually, I didn’t enjoy my experiments.

Last week my mom asked me if I had ever tried drugs or alcohol and I was honest and told her that I had tried both, but that I am not

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace involved in either. I told her that for about two weeks five months ago I tried beer, wine and a couple of mixed drinks just to discover what it felt like to consume alcohol. Also during that time, I told her I smoked about a dozen joints.

I promised that since then I have been totally “clean.”

After my admission I asked Mom if she ever tried drugs.

(I know that she tried alcohol because she is now a social drinker.)

She looked at me with a shocked look on her face and then she started to cry. I really felt like an oaf and I felt sorry for her.

Should I ask her again at another time if she took drugs when she was younger? Mom, my younger sister and I form our family. My parents are divorced and we have no direct contact with our father.

– Nameless, Daytona Beach, Fla. Dear Nameless: It’s possible that Mom did give drugs a try when she was a teen, and if she did, it would be important for her to share her drug use with you and your sister so you both can learn the negative experiences she had.

It’s obvious that she has been drug-free for quite some time. She should be praised for this and your sister and you should tell Mom how much you love her and give her a big hug!

Welcome change; without it you cannot move ahead.

By ED SYMKUS More Content Now As I sit down to write this, minutes after arriving home from a preview of “Transformers: Age of Extinction,” I already have four Advils and a Valium in my system, hoping for relief from my pounding headache and jangled nerves. The fourth film in the series of box office hits and critical failures should continue on the same merry path it’s followed since the 2007 original.

The formula includes A) cars, trucks, giant robots (that can “transform” into fancy sport cars and beatup old trucks), and people flying through the air ... no, falling through the air; B) the foibles of mankind’s attempt to exist with those giant robots – the good ones are Autobots, the bad ones are Decepticons – who are visiting from the planet Cybertron and wreaking havoc upon us and each other; and C) we poor little human folk working with them and/or going up against them.

These are big, loud, flashy movies that feature an almost equal amount of slam-bang action, confusing plot points, and propulsive drums on the soundtrack (ahh, so THAT’S the source of the headache and nerve problem).

As mindless and over-acted as this one gets, it also offers up a bit of scientific theory: The dinosaurs didn’t vanish all those millennia ago because of a meteorite; they went extinct when the Creators from Cybertron first came here and unleashed some “seeds” or, in plain English, some big-ass bombs that wiped out everything that was breathing.

Well, that’s the lesson that opens this film. But we’re not allowed to think about it because before you can say “Check out the Bud Light product placement” we’re introduced to sin-

She’s secretly dating Irish race car driver Shane Dyson (Jack Reynor), who is (gasp!) three years older than her – then finds out the hard way that government officials are hunting down

Optimus Prime and are eager to kill anyone who gets in their way.

Seems a CIA guy (Kelsey Grammer) and a hot-tempered industrialist (Stanley Tucci) are in cahoots on a plan to build their own Transformers – since the discovery of the new element Transformium.

Oh, please, they don’t really care about any army.

They just want all the money they can get for making an army happen. At its root, this is a film about capitalism gone way out of control.

Or maybe it’s about keeping order in the universe.

Yes, that must be it because bad guy Decepticon Lockdown (voice of Mark Ryan) is also after good guy Autobot Optimus Prime because he and his band of Autobots have been helping

the dastardly humans when they should have been killing them and taking over the planet, because there are some people who consider all Transformers, good and bad, to be “alien killing machines” ... or something like that.

Here, this line of dialogue, spoken by the villainous CIA man to our inventor hero, after our hero has been taken captive, might sort things out: “You have no idea what you’re involved with here.” Yeah, he’s got that right, but I felt the line was spoken directly to me, not to Mark Wahlberg.

I’m going to give the film some props, in that it’s a visual effects extravaganza in which both Chicago and Hong Kong take absolute shellackings due to massive amounts of gunfire and explosions and big robots beating the tar out of each other as they crash into buildings.

And that all happens before the Decepticons unleash some big, red-eyed robot wolves, and the Autobots get back-up help from some big, snarling “Legendary Warriors.”

You want just over two and a half hours of rampant devastation? This movie’s for you. You want a story that makes sense? This movie’s not for you.

This movie was not for me, but one specific part of it did earn my fascination.

After being captured by robots, thrown from moving vehicles, attacked by those wolves, and generally tossed around like a rag doll, the teen daughter’s blue nail polish didn’t even have a chip.

• “Transformers: Age Of Extinction” is written by Ehren Kruger; and directed by Michael Bay. The film stars Mark Wahlberg, Stanley Tucci, Kelsey Grammer, Nicola Peltz and Jack Reynor. It is rated PG-13.
