Morris man drowned in Kankakee River

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com WILMINGTON – A Morris man drowned Tuesday night when his canoe overturned in the Kankakee River.

The Will County Coroner’s office has identified the victim as Dean Fredericks, 20, of Morris.

An autopsy performed Wednesday showed Fredericks died from drowning.

“He was very caring and knew how to make you laugh.

Definitely a joy to be around.”

Carrington Herman, friend of Fredericks, said.

Deputy Chief Todd Friddle said the Wilmington Fire Department received a call at 8:49 p.m. Tuesday that four men had gone into the water. Conservation Police spokesman Chris Young said the four had been in a canoe about 500 yards downstream of the boat launch at the Des Plaines Conservation Area.

“Two guys were on the north bank of the river when we arrived, and another had just reached Bardwell Island in

the middle, but the fourth was unaccounted for,” Friddle said.

Friddle, who also commands the department’s dive team, called other agencies to assist with search and rescue efforts. The waterway was closed to other traffic while 10 boats were used during the recovery.

“This was a large-scale night operation and the incoming weather was also a concern. If the storm had arrived earlier, we would’ve suspended operations,” Friddle said.

But about 11:45 p.m. Wilmington divers found Fredericks submerged near the area where the canoe had been. Fredericks was pronounced dead at the scene by a deputy Will County coroner at 1:10 a.m.

Young said the incident is being investigated as an accidental drowning.

“It was a shock, just really unexpected and sad,” said Jon Lanning, who was Fredericks’ wrestling coach while he attended Morris Community High School.

Fredericks graduated from Morris High School in 2012.

“He was a hard worker. He worked hard at practices. He was passionate about the sport, and he was a very good contributor to the team,” Lanning said.

“He was one of those guys that our team kind of counted on when he was older. Very solid member of the team who was just a work horse,” the coach continued.

Morris Community High School Principal Kelly Hussey said although Fredericks graduated from the school in 2012, the school would be prepared to help any students needing to talk about their peer.

“We are prepared to address any issues with our social workers and our counseling staff. At this point in time, it’s a very small group of students onsite that would be close with him still, because he’s been gone for two years,” Hussey said.

The Fred C. Dames Funeral Home in Joliet is handling arrangements.

Man arrested on porn charges in Channahon kills himself

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com QUEENS, NEW YORK – A man who was arrested in Channahon last week on child pornography charges killed himself Sunday shortly after being released on bail.

Suresh M. Manjanath, 45, of Tarrytown, New York, jumped off a tall building to his death Sunday, according to the Suresh M. New York City Manjanath Office of the Tarrytown, NY Chief Medical Examiner.

The New York-based pub-

lication The Journal News reported Manjanath “jumped to his death from a building on 92nd Street in Jackson Heights about 1:30 a.m. Sunday,” citing its sources as New York City police and medical examiner.

Will County jail records indicate Manjanath was released Friday after posting $100,000 cash on his $1 million bond.

Manjanath was arrested May 27 on four counts of dissemination of child pornography and faced up to 30 years in prison.

Channahon Det. Adam Bogart said Manjanath met with an undercover decoy who posed as the mother of two young children at a local restaurant, where he allegedly

offered her money to take lewd photographs of them. No actual children were involved in the sting arrest.

The investigation was conducted by Channahon police and the Illinois Attorney General’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, which Bogart is assigned to.

Will County court records show Manjanath was granted permission to return to New York after a May 29 court hearing. He had to surrender his passport before leaving jail and was banned from using the Internet.

Prosecutors filed a motion Tuesday to end proceedings because of Manjanath’s death, according to court records.

LOCAL BRIEF Joliet officers reportedly shoot armed man JOLIET – Police officers reportedly shot an armed man during a confrontation Wednesday night.

The incident occurred around 7:30 p.m. at Mills Road and Route 53.

According to police reports, officers were following a man being sought for arrest when he got out of the vehicle while holding a gun.

The man was taken to a local hospital. His condition was not available at press time.

Keeping pools clean in Will County is a big responsibility

By VIKAAS SHANKER

“These inspections are not designed to be punitive. Pool management people are happy to see us because we’re helping to ensure they have safe pools.”

vshanker@shawmedia.com Chlorine is a community pool owner’s best friend.

The chemical kills most bacteria that collect from the numerous people who use community pool areas daily.

And it’s why outdoor pools can exist without simply becoming ponds with murky colors.

“Chlorine is primarily an industry standard,” said Angela Brown, facilities manager for the Tomahawk Aquatic Center in Channahon. “With all the things that go into a pool, it’s the most cost-effective way to keep the pool safe.”

In addition to chlorine levels, pools are regularly checked for pH levels, debris, and as Brown put it, “bodily solids.”

Public pools are inspected year-round by the Will County Health Department to make sure standards set by the state are followed.

“These inspections are not designed to be punitive,” said Vic Reato, media services manager for the health department. “Pool management people are happy to see us because we’re helping to ensure they have safe pools.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention qualifies pool illnesses as “recreational water illnesses.”

These include infections affecting humans’ skin, ears, eyes and the respiratory, gastrointestinal and neurological systems.

The most commonly reported recreational water illnesses, according to the CDC, are diarrheal illnesses.

These are most likely caused

by Cryptosporidium, Giardia, Shigella, norovirus and E. coli germs.

The health department in February signed a continuing agreement with the Illi-

BELOW: Givens holds a sticker that is used when a public pool fails inspection. nois Department of Public Health to enforce swimming facility ordinances. While the state requires at least one licensed inspection at each swimming facility annually, the county inspects more than that.

“We go so often the pool management know our staff,” health department Director of Public Health Elizabeth Bilotta said.

The health department inspects outdoor pools and beaches every two weeks. Indoor facilities are inspected every month.

In total, 128 swimming facilities and 12 beaches in Will County will be inspected this year. A swimming facility qualifies if it would be used by five or more living units, including apartments, housing communities and hotels.

The routine inspections look at pool temperature, depth, pump room and gauges, and if there have been any

emergencies at the pool recently. Water parks like the Splash Station Waterpark in Joliet are separately inspected for each water attraction.

Bath houses and popular areas on beaches also are inspected.

“There’s a lot of different things that are going to affect the amount of chemicals in the pool,” said Suzanne Ringbauer, aquatic coordinator

for the Splash Station, which has several pool areas including the zero depth pool, lazy river and laned pool. “Each one is treated differently.”

These days, pool water treatment at large water parks is accomplished through a couple of managers and several automated systems.

“The chemicals also need to be monitored,” Ringbauer

said, adding that improper use of chemicals in the water can cause eye irritation and sickness. “It’s important to find the right balance and maintain that.”

The health department assigns one of three grades to pools that don’t meet the state standards.

An A-grade means the violation can be corrected quickly and isn’t a big health risk.

A B-grade is more serious and may result in a fine of $25 a day. C-grade violations are life-threatening and could result in fines of $100 a day.

The health department conducted 1,033 inspections last year, which led to 53 pool closures.

“It’s a relatively small percentage of closures compared to the amount of inspections we do,” Bilotta said. “All of those closures were minor and the pools reopened after the problem was fixed.”

Bilotta advises that residents who want to build and maintain a private pool make themselves aware of the standards and regulations community pools abide by, including pH and chlorine levels.

Also, government websites like poolsafely.gov and the CDC have information on how to set up pools and prevent water-borne diseases.

LOCAL NEWS CPR taught to Metra commuters

By BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com JOLIET – If you learned CPR years ago, you might remember it as a somewhat complicated process involving the ABCs: airway, breathing and compression.

The victim’s head was supposed to be tilted a certain way, the airway cleared of vomit or any foreign matter and then mouth-to-mouth resuscitation – using an air tube if you had one – alternating with chest compressions.

Trying to remember all the rules, especially in a life-ordeath situation, could be more than a little intimidating.

That’s why the American Heart Association in 2010 changed the focus of cardiopulmonary resuscitation to just chest compressions. Studies showed that, especially when

Bill Wimbiscus – bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com

Nancy Lopez practices hands-only CPR on a mannequin while her sister Brenda Novak and Floyd Woods of the Joliet Fire Department watch at Union Station on Wednesday. administered by untrained bystanders, chest compression

alone was as effective as traditional CPR in saving lives.

Representatives of the AHA, Metra and Northwestern Medicine were at Union Station on Wednesday to demonstrate the technique on mannequins and talk about automated external defibrillators, or AEDs. About 300 of the devices have been installed on Metra trains, with another 125 placed in Metra work facilities and police vehicles.

Floyd Woods, an EMS coordinator with the Joliet Fire Department, was on hand to give live demonstrations to commuters.

“People are still nervous about CPR and I think that’s why the American Heart Association has made the changes it has made,” Woods said.

Having the dummies for demonstration also helps, he said.

“You don’t have the chance to really practice unless you

have the mannequins,” Woods said.

He demonstrated the technique to sisters Nancy Lopez and Brenda Novak, who had taken the train to Joliet.

“I guess if everyone at least knew the basics you could save a couple of lives,” Novak said.

Hands-only CPR basically involves pushing hard and fast on the center of the victim’s chest with both hands after calling 911. An AHA handout suggests compressions should follow the beat of “Stayin’ Alive” by the Bee Gees.

“Just get your hands in the right place and start pushing,” said Mary Witherspoon, an AHA nurse volunteer who attended the event. “If you start pressing on the chest, you can get the blood circulating. It’s more about just trying to save a life.”

Benefit planned to help firefighter with ALS

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com SHOREWOOD – Derek Hogg has spent his life helping others. He’s not completely comfortable having that situation reversed.

“It’s very humbling to see all this support, but it’s hard for me to ask for help when I don’t think a ‘thank you’ will cut it. I owe something to everybody, so the best I can do is give 110 percent to my [recovery],” he said.

Hogg, 31, is a Joliet West High School graduate who has worked full-time on the Kankakee Fire Department and parttime on the Wilmington Fire Department for the past six years.

When Hogg first noticed a muscle twitch last year, he didn’t believe it was a big deal, but saw a Joliet neurologist at his father’s urging. Further tests in Chicago and at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota indicated Hogg has amyotrophic

“Every doctor I saw said people live an average of 3 to 5 years, but I have young sons. I can’t accept that.”

Derek Hogg lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.

“Every doctor I saw said people live an average of 3 to 5 years, but I have young sons. I can’t accept that. I have to do something,” Hogg said. He and his wife, Holly, are the parents of Paxton, 2, and 4-month-old Hayden.

Hogg’s research found a doctor in California who is optimistic that stem cell therapy could slow the progression of Hogg’s disease, he said. Stem cell treatment, which is not covered by insurance, costs $25,000.

James and Tina Kilgore are

holding a benefit Saturday at the Moose Lodge to cover the cost of their brother-in-law’s treatment.

“Derek’s just such a good guy who’s spent his whole life helping others. I think a lot of people want to help him fight this battle,” Tina Kilgore said.

The $25 tickets include hamburgers and hot dogs, and an entry for the big-screen television set being offered as a door prize. Musicians You Beside Me will perform at 2 p.m. and Alex Hoffer will play at 3 p.m.

The Joliet Police Pipes and Drums will play at 5 p.m. and a DJ will play music until 8 p.m.

A petting zoo and face-painting will be on hand for kids, along with police and fire vehicles at 3 p.m. and a ventriloquist at 4 p.m.

Besides entertainment, the benefit will offer a 50-50 raffle, bake sale and silent auction, which includes baskets of NASCAR, Cubs and White Sox tickets, bath and beauty products and Legos and other toys.

because Lisa and Ina couldn’t see each other without crying.

“It was just too emotional for us,” Ina said. “We had to stop video messaging in the beginning.”

With the end of the school year, Ina and younger daughter, Felicia, traveled to Morris to spend the week with the Ramsey’s, leaving Thursday to return to Germany.

Ina said she loves spending time in the small towns – like Seneca and Morris – when she visits, but the group traveled across the country this time, packing

Without hesitation, Lisa and her husband, Doug Ramsey, offered to house Chiara for the 2013-14 school year, taking her in as their own.

“We never had any children of our own, so we didn’t know what to expect,” Lisa said. “But we were excited and felt really honored to have her here.”

Chiara spent the last year attending Morris Community High School while living with the Ramsey’s.

Ina said when Chiara first moved, they had to limit the amount of Skype sessions between the two families

years later.

In 1993, when Ina was getting married, Lisa traveled to Germany so she stand by her side as a bridesmaid.

“We are very close. We have the same sense of humor and can make each other laugh,” Ina said. “I’m here today, and it’s like yesterday that we met. We can understand each other without words.”

It came as no surprise that when Ina was looking for an American exchange program for her teenage daughter, Chiara, she turned to Lisa for help.

in as much sightseeing as possible.

They visited Chicago, where they looked out of Willis Tower and were interviewed by Chicago TV stations, after glass in the viewing deck shattered.

Next was a 10-hour road trip to New York, where they gazed at Niagara Falls and bought ‘I love New York’ t-shirts. Then a short trek into Canada, where they stayed for about 30 minutes before crossing back into the U.S. Their vacation culminated Wednesday with a family dinner to send off the Winter family.

Lisa doesn’t know when she can make it to Germany next, but finds comfort knowing Ina is always just a letter or an email away.

“It’s like I always say,” Lisa began emotionally. “I’ve got a another family in Germany, and she’s got a family here.”

MORRIS – It started with an address.

More than three decades ago, in a small German town, 15-year-old Ina Hildebrandt looked over a long list of foreign names and cities – a directory of potential pen pals.

Without rhyme or reason, Ina chose an address belonging to one Lisa Anderson from Seneca, Illinois, who had recently signed up for Seneca High School’s pen pal program because she was interested in Germany.

Little did they know, Ina’s random decision was the start of a something special.

Several hundred letters, 32 years and a few international flights later, Ina and Lisa sat at Lisa’s kitchen table in Morris Wednesday reminiscing about their lifelong friendship, one that began with a letter.

Their names have changed – Lisa is now Lisa Ramsey; Ina is Ina Winter – and they send more emails and instant messages than handwritten letters these days, but their relationship has remained a constant in each other’s lives.

“It wasn’t long after we started writing to each other that we knew we wanted to meet,” Lisa said.

And so they met, just one year after sending their first letter. At age 16, Ina flew halfway around the world so the two could meet and made the made the trek again two

Arcade coming to Joliet soon

By BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A new business coming to downtown Joliet will feature all the buzzers, bells and flippers of a bygone era.

Game Show Pinball Arcade, which plans to open soon at 215 N. Chicago St., will feature 20 to 25 vintage pinball machines in rotation, as well as five video arcade machines, an electro-mechanical driving arcade, foosball and air hockey, Mayor Tom Giarrante told the City Council on Tuesday.

The business initially plans to be open from 3 p.m. to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, and then expand based on demand, possibly to 3 to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, Giarrante said.

Under what’s become a more or less obsolete section of city code, Joliet charges an annual fee of $50 for any “mechanical, electric or electronic amusement machine” including pinball machines, shuffle alleys and photographic alleys.

Arcade owner Chris Czarnowski requested an 18-month waiver on the vending device fees to “remove a barrier to the startup and allow for the conversion of a currently vacant storefront.”

The council agreed to allow Game Show to open pending approval by police, fire and building inspectors, with the fee waiver to be handled under a TIF agreement.

In other business, the council: • Approved using $1.584 million in Motor Fuel Tax funds for roadway resurfacing projects. The council also awarded the 2014 roadways resurfacing contract to Austin Tyler Con-

struction Company.

• Approved a professional services hiring contract for $40,000 with Stanard & Associates. Stanard will work with the police department to establish criteria for entry-level candidate lists. The city’s current entry-level candidate list is expires in November.

• Accepted a $75,000 abandoned property municipal relief grant from the Illinois Housing Development Authority. Funding, which was awarded to 53 municipalities, counties and land banks, will be used to cut grass and weeds, trim trees and bushes and install fences to protect the public from abandoned property being demolished or repaired.

• Authorized sale of a single-family home at 7 Union St. to Salvador Martinez for $62,500. Martinez was selected from a lottery of 17 individuals and families interested in the property, which was rehabilitated by the city. Martinez will receive $15,500 in down payment and closing assistance.

• Purchased two new severe weather sirens for $41,000 from Federal Signal/Braniff Communications. The sirens will be placed at Laraway and Patterson roads, and Schweitzer and Vetter roads. With the addition of the new equipment, the city will have 26 severe weather sirens across the city.

• Approved using an additional $13,000 in Motor Fuel Tax funds on the Washington Street Bridge project. The project will replace the existing span with a single span bridge. The city has received a $1.4 million federal grant for the project. Construction, which is expected to begin in July, will last about six months.

Joliet man slain while on porch

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Markus C. Tanzy was supposed to start a new job Wednesday.

Chantel Hare said she was supposed to drive her 25-year-old boyfriend to his orientation meeting at a food manufacturing warehouse. Instead, Hare spent the day trying to make funeral arrangements.

Tanzy was slain Tuesday night while reportedly smoking a cigarette on a porch in the 100 block of South Joliet Street. Lt. Brian Dupuis said police officers heard gunfire at 9:30 p.m. and arrived to find Tanzy had been shot in the chest.

Tanzy was taken to Presence Saint Joseph Medical

Anyone wishing to donate toward funeral costs for Markus C. Tanzy can contact Chantel Hare at hare.chantel@gmail.com Center, where he was pronounced dead at 9:51 p.m., according to the Will County Coroner’s office. Police did not release any information Wednesday about a possible suspect.

“Nobody wants to talk about it. Nobody wants to tell [police] anything,” Hare said.

At the time of his death, Tanzy was on parole for a

SUMMER SCORCHER SALE

2011 burglary conviction and was scheduled to appear in court next month on vandalism and trespassing charges stemming from a 2013 case. Police databases indicate Tanzy is associated with a local street gang.

Hare said her boyfriend was not a gang member, but a homebody who enjoyed spending time with their 4-month-old daughter, Miaja.

Hare said she and Tanzy were exchanging messages on Facebook about his job just before he was gunned down. She believes whoever shot Tanzy may have been targeting other people in the house.

“The violence ... it needs to stop. My baby’s not going to have a father,” Hare said Wednesday.

LOCKPORT

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com

“Can we put in there somewhere come in an talk? ... if they came in and said I’m having a rough time for these two months, can we put in a notice on there ‘please contact the city’?”

Kelly Turner 2nd Ward alderman making payments and allows them roughly two months to comply before their water is shut off, he said.

“We never leave someone

out in the street where they had a financial hard time,” he said.

Turner recommended a change to the notices sent out to residents falling behind on water bill payments.

“Can we put in there somewhere come in and talk?”

Turner said. “... if they came in and said I’m having a rough time for these two months, can we put in a notice on there ‘please contact the city’?”

Brown said he would look into adopting such a feature.

If approved, the increased fees during regular City Hall hours would put Lockport on average for such charges compared to a dozen neighboring communities, according to city records.

At Wednesday’s city council meeting, council members unanimously approved reimbursing Brian Errthum, the owner of a property on 809 S. Street for $7,360 for making building improvements. Errthum was the recipient of the city’s facade and site improvement grant program. The program was started to help business owners within city limits keep their buildings attractive.

At the next city council meeting, council members will vote on approving another facade and site improvement grant for a property located at 1028 S. State Street.

The total cost for the work is $3,200, with a request for a $1,600 grant.

ROMEOVILLE

Board impressed with downtown developments

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com ROMEOVILLE – The village board Wednesday was impressed with its first look at the development for commercial businesses moving into the Uptown Square area.

The site plan calls for Fat Ricky’s Old World Pizza and Franconi’s grocery and deli to share the northeast space of the downtown lot.

“It’s an absolutely gorgeous building,” Mayor John Noak said.

The development would be 10,582 square feet. The two businesses will have separate customer entrances but have a shared access within the building.

Fat Ricky’s will include a kitchen, private dining area, space for 40 tables, outdoor dining area and a drive-thru.

The L-shaped building would take up 10,582 square

Rendering of the commercial units across from the Romeoville Athletic and Events Center in the Uptown Square development feet, with 6,438 for Fat Ricky’s and 4,144 for Franconi’s. Franconi’s would be placed north of Fat Ricky’s.

The development also would include a total of 44 parking spaces. However, customers would be able to park with the shared spaces of the Romeoville Athletic and Events Center.

Construction on the building will start this summer, according to Village Manager Steve Gulden.

“Planning and Zoning Commission did a fine job,” Trustee Dave Richards said. “This

is a unique site.”

One concern the commission had, according to Richards, was the safety issues with coming out of the drive-thru right next to Franconi’s. “[Cars] would almost be dumping into the grocery store entrance,” Richards said.

Deliveries also were a concern because the drop-off location for food could interfere with drive-thru traffic.

Representatives for the developer, BG Investments, LLC., said delivery schedules would be set so multiple vehicles don’t pile up near the

Department of Employment Security will host a job fair from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday at Joliet Junior College

More than 50 area employers will be on site to meet with job

drop-off, and signage could be added to make sure the drive-thru exit is safe.

Trustee Sue Micklevitz, the board liaison with the Downtown Redevelopment Committee, said committee members also had similar concerns.

“But other than that, people are very excited,” Micklevitz said.

Honoring fire assistant Fire Chief Kent Adams retired fire department badge number 90 at Wednesday’s meeting in honor of the late

Diane Michalec, who recently died battling cancer.

Michalec was the executive assistant for the fire department for 24 years.

According to Adams, the department retires badge numbers when a firefighter serves more than 20 years or is killed while performing firefighting duties.

“The individual we’re recognizing tonight is not a firefighter,” Adams said, explaining how Michalec still showed the qualities the department looks for in a firefighter. “Diane should be recognized for her dedication and body of work.”

Michalec’s husband, Battalion Chief Robert Michalec, received the recognition on her behalf.

“She loved working for the village,” Robert Michalec said.

LOCKPORT – City Council members in Lockport decided to hold off on proposal to increase fees for turning on water for residents.

During Wednesday’s Committee of the Whole meeting, Erik Brown, city finance director, told council members about the habitual offenders who continually need their water turned on after it was shut off because they were not paying the utility bills.

City officials are looking to increase the fee to $50 to not only deter those residents from using the service repeatedly but also to cover the costs of sending city workers out

to turn the water on. The fees also would increase to $100 for turning on the water after City Hall hours.

Brown said this year city workers turned on the water for residents 400 times and 30 percent of the requests came from people who have needed the service repeatedly. But 2nd Ward Alderman Kelly Turner asked if this measure would punish everyone who pays for the water activation service and not just the habitual offenders.

Brown said the increased water activation fee is meant as a deterrent to habitual offenders but the city’s software system isn’t able to track those offenders. City staff does try to work with residents on

Homer Glen officials to discuss Woodbine Golf Course’s future

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com HOMER GLEN – The future of the property outside Woodbine Golf Course facilities will be open for discussion at a special meeting for the Homer Glen Village Board.

Homer Glen village officials have scheduled a meeting for 7 p.m. Monday at the Homer Junior High School cafeteria, 15711 S. Bell Road, to gather public input on how the roughly 100-acre Woodbine Golf Course property should be used.

“We’re at the beginning stages of public input,” Homer Glen Mayor Jim Daley said.

“What would you like to see?

What do you think of the good things and bad things?”

The village bought the golf

course and building last year for $3.3 million and expect renovations to begin this winter.

The renovations are expected to last about four months and cost about $2 million.

Williams Architects was selected May 13 by the village board to be a part of the project. Daley said the architectural firm was chosen out 22 that applied for the renovation project.

In April, the village sought input from the public on plans for the property and will seek it again Monday. The meeting will give each resident the opportunity to comment for under three minutes.

“There’s going to be a lot of public input,” Daley said. “This is the first step of the park side of things.”

According to the minutes

for a Dec. 23 special board meeting, Daley said in a statement the village’s goal is to turn the property into an “outstanding community park” with “new ball fields, trails and multiple other recreational uses.” The new Village Hall will be close to a Homer Glen library and highway department.

Daley also had stated another possible idea for the property.

“My hope is that a portion of the remodeled Village Hall facility will also be able to serve as Homer Glen’s first dedicated senior center with programming and activities sponsored by the village to the benefit of our great senior citizens,” Daley said in the statement.

The Woodbine Golf Course’s owner plans to retire, Daley said.

Channahon discusses further steps for proposed riverfront park

By JEANNE MILLSAP Shaw Media Correspondent CHANNAHON – The Channahon Village Board discussed Tuesday design services for the proposed Channahon Riverfront Park project, an initiative that has been talked about by officials in recent years.

The board heard a presentation from Schoppe Design Associates, a landscape architectural design firm in Oswego. Village President Joe Cook asked the firm to give the board information on professional design services it can offer for the proposed riverfront park.

The board is eyeing about 60 acres between Front and Bridge streets for the recreational walk that would feature the village’s natural beauty and historical landmarks.

Trustee Debbie Militello asked if proposals from other firms had been entertained, and Cook said Schoppe is an expert on riverwalks, having designed the ones in Aurora and Yorkville. The firm also has been successful in obtaining grants for riverwalk projects in the past.

Trustees asked for more time to consider the proposal.

Should they decide in favor in the future, Schoppe would prepare a park master plan that would identify recreational uses, possible land acquisition and trail and roadway corridors. The firm also would inventory physical information as topography, vegetation, soils, floodplain and wetland data, as well as visit the site to become acquainted with patterns of use, physical conditions, unique features and roadways.

In other business, the board approved a tax increment financing, or TIF, agreement with Channahon School District 17, Minooka Community School District 111 and Troy Community Consolidated School District 30C. The TIF is designed to encourage development of the area around the Route 6 and Interstate 55 interchange.

A TIF district is an area in which assessed property values are frozen at their current level.

Tax money generated from the difference between the frozen value and new value of those

properties goes into a special TIF fund to be used to improve properties in the district.

The agreement outlines when TIF funds will be declared surplus and the percentage amounts that will be returned to the school districts and other taxing bodies. In the first five years, no TIF dollars will be declared surplus and returned to the schools.

In years six through 10, 5 percent of increases in property taxes for the TIF area will be returned to the taxing bodies; in years 11 to 15, 12.5 percent will be returned; in years 16 to 20, 22.5 percent will be returned; and in years 21 to 23, 30 percent of the TIF tax dollars will be declared surplus and returned to the taxing bodies.

Director of Community Development Mike McMahon said the negotiating process has been going on for about a year.

A public hearing on the TIF itself is scheduled for July 7.

Trustees also accepted the resignation of McMahon, who has served in the position for eight years. After the meeting, McMahon said his last day will be July 4.

Lawyers spar on secret-court docs in Chicago

CHICAGO – A federal appeals court in Chicago has heard oral arguments over surveillance issues highlighted during the past year by disclosures from one-time government contractor Edward Snowden.

During oral arguments Wednesday, a government attorney asked a three-judge panel to reverse a trial court’s ruling granting a terrorist suspect’s lawyers unprecedented access to secret intelligence-court records.

Prosecutor William Ridgway said letting the defense see Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court documents would be a first, and that it could harm national security.

A lawyer for Adel Daoud said the defense is being asked to mount pre-trial objections to secret-court records they can’t see. Lawyer John Cline likened that to someone being blindfolded while “playing pin the tail on the donkey.”

The 20-year-old Daoud denies trying to ignite a bomb in Chicago in 2012.

Illinois woman accused of theft over cancer claims

ST. LOUIS – An Illinois woman pleaded not guilty to charges that she bilked thousands of dollars in donations from hundreds of people she duped for months into believing she had terminal cancer.

Thirty-one-year-old Alissa Jackson of Belleville was arraigned Wednesday in St. Clair County on two felony counts of theft by deception. She told a judge she plans to hire an attorney and was jailed on $100,000 bond.

World War II veteran Doug Thrutchley stands by the captured U-505 German submarine on display Wednesday at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. Thrutchley, who was involved with capture of the 252-foot vessel, was on hand to mark the 70th anniversary of its capture. It is the only German submarine the U.S. Navy captured during the war and one of five left in the world. The veterans who captured the 252-foot vessel have been meeting for years at the museum, but museum officials said the veterans decided Wednesday would be their last meeting because their numbers are dwindling. Almost two dozen veterans, many wearing red roses pinned to their shirts, toured the submarine.

tors began scrutinizing Jackson nearly a month ago after community members reported their suspicions that she was lying about having late-stage ovarian cancer.

Police ultimately found that although the community staged several fundraisers meant to defray Jackson’s supposed medical expenses, Jackson never had cancer.

Cicada hatch to make for noisy western Illinois

GALESBURG – Late spring is about to get a whole lot noisier in western Illinois, and the fish may not bite for a while, either.

That’s because a huge crop of cicada eggs laid 17 years ago are about to become loud, buzzing insects, University of Illinois Extension entomologist Phil Nixon said.

Nixon told the Galesburg Register-Mail that the noisy insects should start emerging this weekend.

“The cicadas will come out and males will sing to attract females for two to three weeks,” Nixon said. “Normally, they sing during the day when it’s sunny out.”

The 17-year hatch of cicadas should be most noticeable in western Illinois, Missouri and southeastern Iowa.

AG Madigan warns Ill. residents of email scam

CHICAGO – Attorney General Lisa Madigan is warning Illinois residents that someone is using her office’s name to scam people via email.

In a statement Tuesday, Madigan said the emails falsely threaten prosecution for supposed debts. The messages appear to be sent by someone from her office and include a letter with an official-looking seal and the words “final warning.” She said anyone who receives such an email shouldn’t respond. Madigan said they should call her office’s consumer fraud bureau.

People who have applied for loans online may be at higher risk to receive the emails.

Madigan said that’s because they’ve provided their personal information to companies that may sell it to lenders or “illegal fraudsters.”

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Mound of dirt suspected in bridge closure DOVER, Del. – State transportation officials said Wednesday that they believe a contractor is responsible for dumping a massive mound of dirt suspected of shifting the ground underneath an interstate highway bridge and forcing its closure.

Delaware Transportation Secretary Shailen Bhatt said contractor Jim Thomas was working with the department to remove the dirt, which officials believe was dumped next to the Interstate 495 bridge in Wilmington over a period of years.

The mountain of dirt appeared to rise about two stories and stretch nearly the length of a football field.

The bridge closed Monday after four pairs of support pillars were found to be tilting. It will remain closed until engineers figure out how to brace the bridge and make it safe for the 90,000 vehicles that travel it daily.

Clinton: U.S. needs to break ‘glass ceiling’ WASHINGTON – Hillary Rodham Clinton says she knows she has a decision to make about running to become the first female president, and believes “we need to break down that highest, hardest glass ceiling in American politics.”

The former secretary of state tells People Magazine that she wants to enjoy the moment – she’s about to become a grandmother – as she considers “what

I think is right for me.” But she says many Americans think the nation has “unfinished business” in sending the first woman to the White House.

“I’m certainly in the camp that says we need to break down that highest, hardest glass ceiling in American politics,” the former first lady said. “To have a woman president is something I would love to see happen, but I’ll just have to make my own decision about what I think is right for me.”

The interview was posted a few days before the release of Clinton’s new book on her four years as President Barack Obama’s secretary of state.

The manuscript, “The Singularge Experience of Miss Anne Duffield,” was the top lot in the sale and had been estimated to bring $50,000 to $70,000.

The material was created for the two critically acclaimed books Lennon published during the height of Beatlemania. Sotheby’s said 100 percent of the 89 lots sold, with 83 percent selling above the pre-sale high estimate.

Application ‘inconsistencies’ vex Obama’s new health law

By RICARDO ALONSO–ZALDIVAR The Associated Press WASHINGTON – A huge new paperwork headache for the government could also be jeopardizing coverage for some of the millions of people who just got health insurance under President Barack Obama’s law.

A government document provided to The Associated Press indicates that at least 2 million people enrolled for taxpayer-subsidized private health insurance have data discrepancies in their applications that, if unresolved, could affect what they pay for coverage, or even their legal right to benefits.

The final number affected could well be higher. According to the administration the 2 million figure reflects only consumers who signed up through the federally administered HealthCare.gov website and call centers. The government signed up about 5.4 million people, while staterun websites signed up another 2.6 million.

For consumers, a discrepancy means that the information they supplied, subject to perjury laws, does not match what the government has on record.

For example, someone who underestimated his income, and got too generous a subsidy as a result, could owe the Internal Revenue Service money next year.

The seven-page slide presentation from the Health and Human Services Department was provided to AP as several congressional committees investigate the discrepancies.

Most of the data conflicts involve important details on income, citizenship and immigration status – which affect eligibility and subsidies.

Ensuring that health care benefits are delivered accurately is a priority for HHS nominee Sylvia Mathews Burwell, whose confirmation

AP file photo

Sylvia Mathews Burwell, President Barack Obama’s nominee to become secretary of Health and Human Services testifying May 14 on Capitol Hill in Washington. On Wednesday, Burwell easily passed a key test vote in the Senate. as department secretary is before the Senate this week.

Responding to the document, administration officials expressed confidence that most of the discrepancies can be resolved over the summer.

Nonetheless, the department has set up a system to “turn off” benefits for anyone who is found to be ineligible.

Julie Bataille, communications coordinator for the health care rollout, said many of the discrepancies appear to be due to outdated information in government files – and the “vast majority” of cases are being resolved in favor of consumers. The government is making an effort to reach those with various discrepancies, which officials have termed “inconsistencies.”

“The fact that a consumer has an inconsistency on their application does not mean there is a problem on their enrollment,” said Bataille. “Most of the time what that means is that there is more up-to-date information that they need to provide to us.”

For example, for people applying for coverage this year, the latest income information on record with the IRS dates to 2012, in most cases.

The May 8 document provided to the AP said that 2.1 million people enrolled through the new health insurance exchanges were “affected by one or more inconsistency” as of the end of April.

The exchanges offer subsidized private coverage to lower-income and to middle-class people who have no health care on the job. The sliding-scale subsidies are based on income and family size, and are also affected by where a person lives. Under the law, only citizens and legal immigrants are entitled to subsidized coverage.

Because the subsidies are tax credits, the IRS can deduct any overpayments to a consumer from that taxpayer’s refund the following year. Conversely, if the consumer got too small a credit, that person would be due a bigger refund.

Updated numbers provided by Bataille indicate that the total number of people affected remains about the same as reflected in the document.

About 1.2 million have discrepancies related to income; 505,000 have issues with immigration data and 461,000 have conflicts related to citizenship information.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS

McCain, Sanders push for VA health care deal WASHINGTON – A half dozen key lawmakers were struggling Wednesday to quickly craft a compromise bill to help veterans facing long appointment waits at VA hospitals and make it easier to fire administrators who covered up the delays.

The goal is to address an uproar over Veterans Administration health care following allegations that veterans have died while waiting to see a VA doctor.

Leading the negotiations were Sen. John McCain of Arizona, and independent Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, chairman of the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee and the only self-described socialist in Congress. They met face to face early Wednesday and again later in the day.

By DINESH RAMDE The Associated Press WAUKESHA, Wis. – Neighbors of two Wisconsin girls accused of stabbing a friend nearly to death say they’re struggling to reconcile the allegations with what they know about the 12-year-olds and their upbringings.

Waukesha County prosecutors have charged the two girls in adult court with attempted homicide for allegedly stabbing a girl the same age in the woods. The girls told detectives they conspired for months to kill the other girl in hopes of pleasing Slender Man, a fictional character they read about on a horror website.

Most residents in their Waukesha neighborhood didn’t want to talk to reporters Tuesday. They said they were still trying to wrap their minds around the allegations.

But neighbors who did agree to talk said the girls came

from good families and that the parents were responsible guardians who doted on their children.

Emily Edwards, 15, baby-sat one of the girls for about two years. She told The Associated Press the girl seemed to be a well-adjusted child who was never mean or violent.

She said the girl never even picked on her younger brother, and if anything acted as a peacekeeper whenever others teased him.

“She was completely normal, nothing off about her. She was very social, friendly, outgoing,” Emily said, “which is what makes this whole thing so weird.”

Prosecutors say the two girls lured the victim into the woods Saturday and stabbed her 19 times, with one of the wounds coming within a millimeter of piercing a major artery near her heart.

The AP isn’t naming either girl because their cases

could end up in juvenile court, where proceedings are closed to the public. The victim is identified in court documents only by her initials.

Emily said that as far as the girl she baby-sat, she often saw her family laughing and smiling together. She described the girl’s parents as “such nice people” who seem devoted to their two kids.

Paul Plotkin, another neighbor close to the father of one of the girls, said he was troubled by comments he’s seen online suggesting the parents must have been absent, negligent, addicted to drugs or worse.

“Anyone who knows them knows these are good people, a normal middle-class family,” said Plotkin, 44. “It just goes to show, no matter how hard you try to instill good morals, good values, things can still go wrong.”

The two girls live in the same apartment complex,

which has about a dozen buildings scattered in an open layout with leafy trees.

The other girl’s family posted a note on their front door asking reporters to respect their privacy. One woman said she couldn’t comment because the family asked her and other close friends not to talk to the media.

Another woman who lives three doors away said the family seems close-knit and sociable. Carolyn Nelson, a 71-yearold retiree, said whenever she runs into the family they’re friendly and always ready to lend a hand.

Anthony Cotton, an attorney for one of the girls, said he would push to get her case transferred to juvenile court, where more social services and mental health treatment would be available.

“She’s 12 and she has mental health issues,” Cotton said.

“There’s no question that she needs to go to the hospital.”

Taliban video shows handover of Bergdahl

By RAHIM FAIEZ and KEN DILANIAN The Associated Press KABUL, Afghanistan – As a thin, tense-looking Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was handed over to U.S. forces, one of his Taliban captors leaned in and warned: “Don’t come back to Afghanistan. You won’t make it out alive next time.”

Then, the American soldier, wearing traditional loose-fitting Afghan trousers and a long tunic, was led away to a U.S. military helicopter, where he was patted down for explosives or other weapons before climbing aboard.

The weekend handover in the dusty desert was documented in a 17-minute video emailed to news organizations Wednesday by the Taliban, which touted the exchange of Bergdahl for five Guantanamo detainees as a victory, while debate rages

in the U.S. over the deal and whether the 28-year-old from Hailey, Idaho, should be punished as a deserter.

U.S. lawmakers and others have complained that Congress should have been consulted, that the prisoner swap will embolden the Taliban to snatch more American soldiers, and that the released Afghans will filter back to the battlefield.

In Washington, Rob Williams, the U.S. national intelligence officer for South Asia, told the Senate intelligence committee Tuesday that four of the men are expected to resume activities with the Taliban, according to two senior congressional officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because the session was classified.

Under the terms of the exchange, the five Taliban detainees will have to stay for a year in Qatar. There, they

will be free to communicate with their comrades in Afghanistan by courier, one of the congressional officials said.

The five include the former Taliban interior minister, who was described in a U.S. case file leaked by WikiLeaks as having had close ties to Osama bin Laden; the Taliban’s former deputy chief of intelligence; and a former member of a joint Taliban-al-Qaida cell.

The video of Bergdahl after five years in captivity shows a well-choreographed release, with the American sitting in a silver pickup truck while more than a dozen Taliban fighters with machine guns and faces largely covered by scarves stand guard nearby and on a rocky hill overlooking the site.

Bergdahl, his head shaved, blinks frequently and looks tense as he peers out of the

truck. At one point, he wipes his eye as if to get rid of some dust.

A Black Hawk helicopter lands, kicking up a cloud of dust. Two Taliban fighters, one carrying a white flag of truce tied to a long, crooked stick, lead Bergdahl, now wearing a gray shawl and carrying a plastic bag, halfway toward the chopper.

Three apparent members of U.S. special operations forces approach the group, shake hands with the two Taliban fighters and take Bergdahl toward the helicopter.

One of the three men pats down Bergdahl, while another takes the plastic bag from him and drops it on the ground. Then they all climb into the helicopter.

According to a voiceover on the video, the handover took place around 4 p.m. Saturday in rugged Khost province, near the Pakistani border.

WASHINGTON – The family of a pregnant American woman who went missing in Afghanistan in late 2012 with her Canadian husband received two videos last year in which the couple asked the U.S. government to help free them and their child from Taliban captors, The Associated Press has learned.

The videos offer the first and only clues about what happened to Caitlan Coleman and Joshua Boyle after they lost touch with their families 20 months ago while traveling in a mountainous region near the capital, Kabul.

U.S. law enforcement officials investigating the couple’s disappearance consider the videos authentic but say they hold limited investigative value since it’s not clear when or where they were made.

The video files, which were provided to the AP, were emailed to Coleman’s father last July and September by an Afghan man who identified himself as having ties to the Taliban but who has been out of contact for several months.

In one, a subdued Coleman – dressed in a conservative black garment that covers all but her face – appeals to “my president, Barack Obama” for help.

16 Russia’s Putin dominates

G-7 summit in absentia

By JUERGEN BAETZ and JOHN–THOR DAHLBURG The Associated Press BRUSSELS – Russian President Vladimir Putin was kept out of Wednesday’s summit of world leaders but dominated the meeting as President Barack Obama and his counterparts from the G-7 group of major economies sought the Kremlin chief’s renewed cooperation to end the Ukraine crisis.

French President Francois Hollande said the meeting sent a clear signal of unity by urging Russia to help stabilize the situation in Ukraine, while keeping the threat of further sanctions on the table.

In faraway Moscow, Putin seemed to shrug off the snub of having not been invited to Brussels, but declared he was still open to “dialogue.”

In March, the U.S. and its most important allies retaliated for Putin’s military occupation and subsequent annexation of Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula by suspending Russia’s membership in what had been the G-8 club of rich countries. They also nixed Putin’s plan to hold the meeting in Sochi, the city Russia lavished billions on to host the 2014 Winter Olympics.

Around the dinner table in Brussels, “there were seven of us, not eight,” Hollande said afterward. But the leaders “were speaking in one voice” and reached the same conclusions.

“And everyone must hear

them, and especially the one who wasn’t here,” he said, referring to Putin.

In a joint statement, the leaders of the U.S., Canada, Japan, Britain, France, Germany and Italy urged Russia to recognize the results of Ukraine’s recent presidential election, complete the withdrawal of its troops on the border with Ukraine and stop the flow of weapons and militants.

“We stand ready to intensify targeted sanctions and to implement significant additional restrictive measures to impose further costs on Russia, should events so require,” the leaders warned.

But the tough language couldn’t hide the fact that many U.S. allies, especially the Europeans, have shifted their focus toward re-engaging with Putin since Russia has refrained from a full-blown invasion of Ukraine and started pulling back its troops.

Hollande, British Prime Minister David Cameron and Merkel are all planning to hold talks with the Russian president in France during ceremonies marking the 70th anniversary of the D-Day invasion this week.

Obama, however, has no plans to meet with Putin – a clear indication the U.S. is more reluctant than its European peers about renewing the dialogue. Speaking in Poland on Tuesday, Obama announced new military measures meant to reassure NATO allies in Eastern Europe worried about Russia.

Mourning, tight security on Tiananmen anniversary

By GILLIAN WONG The Associated Press BEIJING – Yin Min held the ashes of her son and wept, she said, as she marked 25 years since he was killed in the crackdown by Chinese tanks and troops on protests at Tiananmen Square. Outside, guards kept a close eye on her home while police blanketed central Beijing to block any public commemoration of one of the darkest chapters in recent Chinese history.

“How has the world become like this? I don’t even have one bit of power. Why must we be controlled so strictly this year?” Yin said in a telephone interview. “I looked at his ashes, I looked at his old things, and I cried bitterly.”

China allows no public discussion of the events of June 3-4, 1989, when soldiers backed by tanks and armored personnel carriers fought their way into the heart of Beijing, killing hundreds, possibly thousands, of unarmed protesters and onlookers.

On Wednesday, scores of police and paramilitary troops patrolled the vast plaza and surrounding streets in Beijing’s heart, stopping vehicles and demanding identification from passers-by. Chinese censors scrubbed domestic blogs and social media websites

Paramilitary policemen march Wednesday on Tiananmen Square after a flag-lowering ceremony on Tiananmen Square in Beijing, China. Heavy security blanketed central Beijing on the 25th anniversary of the bloody suppression of the Tiananmen Square pro-democracy protests. of comments marking the crackdown.

The silence in the mainland about the anniversary of a pivotal event that shocked the world contrasted with boisterous commemorations in Hong Kong.

Large crowds gathered Wednesday night in the city’s Victoria Park for an annual candlelight vigil to remember the Tiananmen victims, holding candles aloft that turned the vast area into a sea of flickering light.

Activists laid a wreath at a makeshift memorial as the names and biographical details of people killed in the crackdown were read out.

Organizers said more than

180,000 people took part, with many overflowing into the streets around the park’s main entrance.

Elsewhere, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry urged China to release those jailed in connection with the events. “For all people who seek freedom, Tiananmen Square still stirs our conscience,” he said in a statement.

Some relatives of the crackdown’s victims in Beijing were allowed to pay their respects at cemeteries – but only with police escorts. Others did so at home under surveillance, expressing frustration at the restrictions placed on their remembrances.

OUR VIEW

Protecting workers from needless fees As the use of “payroll cards” in paying out wages to people has become popular, so has the practice of charging fees to those who use them.

Banks and credit unions typically issue these debit-style cards, onto which employers “load” workers’ weekly or bi-weekly wages. The employees then can spend the money with the card rather than being issued a paper check.

The system is most frequently employed in lower-paying industries, such as fast-food or retail operations. Although the system makes sense in some ways – sparing employers the expense of cutting paper checks and allowing people to access their wages without carrying large amounts of cash – it also is in need of some regulation to protect people’s earnings from charges ranging from 50 cents to $5 for any number of occurrences.

New legislation passed by the Illinois House and Senate last week would do that.

The proposal, House Bill 5622, which has been sent to Gov. Pat Quinn for his signature, includes common-sense protections for workers. For example, it would bar employers from requiring people to use payroll cards as a condition of employment. Employers also would have to provide a disclosure on fees and other terms for using the cards, and must ensure that employees have a way of withdrawing their full wages from the cards every two weeks, free of charge, at a location that is convenient.

Card issuers no longer would be allowed to charge fees for point-of-sale transactions with the cards, for loading wages onto the cards, participation fees or inactivity fees for periods of less than a year. One transaction history must be available for free each month, along with two declined transactions a month, and provide electronic fraud protection.

The cards can not be linked to other forms of credit, such as cash advances against future pay.

These measures, many of which were pushed by Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan, make sense and are a fair way of protecting wage-earners from having their pay whittled away by transaction and other service fees.

Payroll cards can be a useful way for people without access to a bank account to use their money, or for people working their first jobs in a society where plastic has overtaken cash as the preferred payment method.

But the system should not be mandatory, and those who choose to use it deserve protections so that they, and not a card provider, receive the benefits of their work.

Today’s youth in a cultural void The movie “The 40-Year-Old Virgin” has been brought up countless times when discussing the life and death and murders of Elliot Rodger, who killed seven people, including himself last month in Santa Barbara, California.

The movie reference was a “guaranteed laugh line” in our “toxic culture,” one of my interlocutors put it, understood to be conveying the killer as a “dweeby, out-of-touch loser,” as another emphasized.

Is it any wonder that the worst thing in the world for Rodgers was that he was not having sex?

“Sex has become a sort of replacement god, an idol of our Internet age,” says Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, the associate clinical professor of psychiatry at the

VIEWS Kathryn Jean Lopez University of California Irvine School of Medicine, observed.

In the writings, he left behind, Rodger pointed to his parents’ divorce and his first viewing of porn as perversely formative.

“I was shocked beyond words,” he says viewing pornographic images at 11. “The sight filled me with strong and overwhelming emotions. I was traumatized. My childhood was fading away. Ominous fear swept over me.”

In a culture that doesn’t value men as protectors and fathers, all there really was for Rogers to hope for was sex. “This makes perfect sense, because deep

in even the most deluded and anesthetized heart, we cannot fail to know that sex is meant to connect us to another,” Ed Mechmann, director of public policy and the Safe Environment Office at the Archdiocese of New York said. When Rodger couldn’t get what he wanted, there was an “existential anger” about him, “not just against his situation but even against who and what he is,” Mechmann commented.

“And so he tried to destroy all that reminded him of the hurt he couldn’t get rid of or make sense of.”

Tiananmen tank man shows what we take for granted Twenty-five years ago, on June 3, 1989, pro-democracy protesters occupying Beijing’s Tiananmen Square for seven weeks were attacked by the Chinese military.

The death toll is in dispute; anywhere from hundreds to a thousand protesters died, many of them crushed by tanks. In the aftermath, thousands of protesters were imprisoned. Since then, the Chinese government has gone

to great lengths to expunge the episode from public consciousness.

One image from that time remains burned into the memory of those who watched it unfold, live, on CNN: the Tiananmen tank man.

On June 5, 1989, a man carrying a plastic bag in each hand walks up a wide, deserted boulevard into the path of a long column of

tanks. He stands in front of the lead tank and stops. The tank stops. It tries to steer around him. He slides with it. The tank stops again. The man climbs on top. The hatch opens. A conversation ensues.

The man jumps down, the tank belches forward and the man scrambles back in front of it. The video stops here, before the tank man is led away.

It’s not clear who he was or

what happened to him next.

That’s how symbols are born.

Twenty-five years later, we are left with the image of a single person, armed only with shopping bags, standing up to all the military might his country could muster in the cause of nonviolent protest. He represents all we take for granted.

Today, the Tiananmen tank man would be an Internet celebrity with his own

Twitter hashtag – except in China, that is. In the days leading up to the Tiananmen Square Massacre anniversary, the Chinese government is blocking Google and other Western news sources.

As for that famous photo, shot by AP photographer Jeff Widener, The New York Times reports it is stringently suppressed in China.

Children are growing up in a shallow, exploitative culture • LOPEZ Continued from page 17 their computers, in their own families – using and discarding people, moving seamlessly in and out of marriages and sexual relationships,” Hilary Towers, a developmental psychologist, said.

This is the “throwaway culture” Pope Francis has often decried. Why are boys and girls right now sitting in bed-

rooms with computers their parents gave them, looking at porn or sexting classmates and strangers?

In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Maya Angelou, the acclaimed poet who recently passed away, expressed awe at her knowledge that God loved her.

It was humbling and overwhelming to her. She didn’t have an easy life, but she was thankful for it, and it made her appreciate others’ lives.

In imperfect ways, she would be the first to admit, she saw people a little bit through the eyes of God. At the very least, she saw a connectedness, a common dignity among all humans.

In another interview, she said when she “internalized” the love of God, she became courageous. “I dared to do anything that was a good thing,” she said.

How can today’s children – growing up in a shallow,

exploitative culture that is raising them in place of their self-obsessed parents – ever see what Angelou did, because she had a family that taught her about religion and embraced her – and her unborn child – when she found herself 16 and pregnant?

What will we do and say, and how will we act in response to the violence, death and alienation that pervade all sectors of Western culture? Create a hashtag to

decry victimhood? Or reach out in love to a young man or woman who can’t keep his or her eyes off of a screen? Goods and games and drugs won’t do it. Being fully present to others (in parenting, teaching and ministering) will.

Griffins ready to complete state quest

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Thursday, June 5, 2014

By CURT HERRON

Boys volleyball state schedule

cherron@shawmedia.com FRANKFORT – Ever since its 2013 season ended in a sectional title match defeat, Lincoln-Way East’s boys volleyball team has had one goal in mind.

And that was to not only get past that round in 2014, but to win three more matches at state and capture the IHSA championship.

After graduating only one senior and returning all of its starters, it seemed like a realistic goal for coach Kris Fiore and his squad, which features 10 seniors.

But saying it and doing it are two different matters, especially when facing some of the top teams in the state.

However, the Griffins certainly have lived up to their lofty expectations after winning 38 of their 39 matches to earn themselves their first state appearance since 2007.

East heads into Friday’s 2 p.m. quarterfinals in Hoffman Estates against Edwardsville (21-12) on a high note after capturing a 2520, 25-9 win over rival Lincoln-Way North for the title of the state’s toughest sectional at Marist on Tuesday.

It was the fourth time in five tries this season that the top-ranked Griffins defeated the Phoenix, who won that sectional final matchup last year before claiming second place.

After the squads split their first two meetings this year in tournament finals, East beat North in its own invite before closing the regular season with another win.

Fiore’s squad has won 21 straight since falling to North on April 12 in the title match at Warren Township.

East’s most-recent win certainly was one of the more satisfying ones it had during a season filled with several impressive victories.

The Griffins fell behind the Phoenix, 8-3, at the start of the sectional final and still trailed, 17-14, before closing the opening set with an 11-3 run.

Then they used a 7-0 spurt,

Quarterfinals – Friday Match 1: New Trier vs. Lake Park, 1 p.m.

Match 2: Edwardsville vs. Lincoln-Way East, 2 p.m.

Match 3: Payton vs. Warren, 5 p.m.

Match 4: Morton vs. Glenbard West, 6 p.m.

Semifinals –Saturday Match 5: Winner of Match 1 vs.

Lincoln-Way East’s Nate Van Dellen digs a Joliet West serve during a game in Frankfort on April 28. East will play in the state quarterfinals Friday against Edwardsville in Hoffman Estates.

Lincoln-Way East’s Brett Fuessel attempts a kill during a game against Joliet West on April 28. East is making its first state appearance since 2007. with Austin Royer collecting three aces among his six service points, to help East grab a decisive, 11-2, advantage.

“It’s been probably close

to three weeks since we’ve dropped a game,” Fiore said.

“Our kids are tremendously focused. They have a onetrack mind right now and

they’re going to do whatever they can to win the state tournament.

“I told them after we finished on Tuesday that they had 12 hours to celebrate and on Wednesday morning we’d be back to work. We’re definitely experienced, so I don’t think that Hoffman Estates will be too big of a stage for them.”

Royer, a four-year performer for the Griffins, long ago established the school record for assists. He will continue his career and education at St. Ambrose.

Nate Van Dellen and Ryan Vorderer, both headed to Lindenwood, lead a varied attack for East, which looks to the defensive play of Josh Phalen, who will play at Grand Canyon.

But one of East’s biggest strengths is that it has an extremely deep bench, allowing Fiore the luxury of utilizing a lot of different players in its blocking and hitting.

If the Griffins defeat Edwardsville in their quarterfinal, they’ll be assured of the program’s second trophy in the sport, with the other coming the last time they were at state.

State championship Winner of Match 5 vs. Winner of Match 6, 5:30 p.m.

In 2007, coach Dawn Murphy’s squad dropped a heartbreaker in the semifinals to New Trier and wound up settling for a fourth-place finish.

East has the chance to see the Trevians again in this year’s semifinals. New Trier plays Lake Park in a 1 p.m. quarterfinal with the winner advancing to Saturday’s 10 a.m. semifinal match.

The Griffins faced a similar situation in the semifinals of their own invite, where the Lancers beat New Trier before falling to East on that occasion.

The bottom of the bracket features Payton facing Warren and Morton against Glenbard West, highest-ranked among those four.

Saturday’s third-place match is at 4 p.m. with the state championship set for 5:15 p.m.

East hopes to cap a memorable 2014 part of the school year with its third title, adding to competitive cheerleading and girls track and field championships.

“We’re real confident, but we’re going to keep working hard since we’re not done yet,” Royer said. “We really want that ring at the end.”

Gillespie, Gullickson, Quigley, Stefanich, Thayer to be inducted SUBMITTED REPORTS

Jeff Budz Joliet Catholic principal

televised live. He won the first of seven ABC titles at age 22, won 14 titles in a 24-year career, and was named to the PBA Hall of Fame in 1980. He went on to golf on the Senior Tour.

“He’s an icon in Joliet,” Sharp of Stefanich, who made the cut in 20 of 24 PGA events over a seven-year period from 1992-2001. “When I was growing up, I remember watching that 300 on national TV. It put the PBA on the map. And he had a second career, a second act, in golf. Not many people can say that.”

Thayer, a 1979 graduate, is a household name in Chicago because of his association with the Bears, winning the 1985 Super Bowl as an offensive lineman before becoming a color commentator for their games on WBBM-AM. He also played in the NFL for Miami and in the USFL with the Blitz and Arizona.

“Tom won a state championship for Gordie, played for the national championship (1981 Sugar Bowl) at Notre Dame and won a Super Bowl with the Bears,” Sharp said.

“Few people can claim that. He always has been very positive in promoting JCA, through his role in the media or by attending football games.”

Sharp pointed out that JCA’s Hall of Champions Selection Committee already has started working on the next class of inductees. Budz confirmed he is excited about seeing the banners being hung in the Student Activity Center, along with the plaques that will be displayed in the adjacent hallway.

“We want our alumni, our community, to feel connected to JCA,” Budz said. “We feel this is a wonderful way to unite even more people from our storied past to the school that we are striving to be every day.”

JOLIET – Gillespie. Gullickson. Quigley. Stefanich.

Thayer.

Athletic Director Dan Sharp called Joliet Catholic Academy’s first class of inductees for its new Hall of Champions “the five pillars of JCA. Different sports, different backgrounds, but all incredible selections.”

Gordie Gillespie, the legendary football coach. Bill Gullickson, the ace baseball pitcher and first-round draft pick. Allie Quigley, an All-American in both volleyball and basketball. Jim Stefanich, the professional bowler and golfer. Tom Thayer, who played for Notre Dame and won a Super Bowl with the Bears.

The Hall of Champions honors male and female athletes, coaches and contributors from De LaSalle (1920-33), Joliet Catholic High School (1933-89), St. Francis Academy (1869-1989) and JCA (1990-present). Along with Sharp, Principal Jeff Budz proudly made the announcement of this special group.

“The people on our first list have made such an impact on our school, our community,” Budz said. “I get chills when I hear about the accomplishments of our alumni, and we’re blessed to have them as a part of our history. They walked our hallways and now will be a permanent fixture in our Hall of Champions.”

The five inductees will have the chance to participate in JCA’s Alumni Golf Outing on Aug. 29, and will be introduced at halftime of the Hilltoppers’ football opener that night against Providence. A formal banquet will be Saturday in the Student Activity Center, with a cocktail hour beginning at 5:30 p.m.

One name, however, trumps all.

Gillespie coached football at Joliet Catholic from 1959 through 1985, compiling a 222-54-6 record (.804 winning percentage) and guiding the

Hillmen to their first five state championships (1975-78, 1981).

He also coached college baseball at Ripon, Lewis and St. Francis for 59 years, finishing with a 1,893-952-1 record.

“Gordie set the standard,” Sharp said of Gillespie, who’s in the College Baseball Hall of Fame, among others.

“Hundreds of his players are in education as teachers, as coaches – his coaching tree is phenomenal. Every person being honored here has been touched somehow by Gordie.

It’s amazing.”

Gullickson, a 1977 graduate, pitched the Hilltoppers to their first Final Four appearance as a senior and was drafted second overall by Montreal. He also pitched in the major leagues for Cincinnati, Detroit, Houston and the New York Yankees, ending a 14-year career with a 162-136 record and a 3.93 ERA. “Bill [Gullickson] was taken second behind only Harold Baines,” Sharp said of the longtime White Sox outfielder.

“That says a lot in itself. We’ve had a lot of major leaguers come out of our state championship baseball program, but Bill is probably the top one, period. He’s the one who started the run of greatness.”

Quigley, a 2004 graduate, was great in three sports, earning All-American status as an outside hitter in volleyball and as a guard in basketball.

She was an All-Area shortstop in softball. She holds the school record with 515 kills as the Angels won the 2003 state title in volleyball.

“I don’t know if anyone will touch her scoring records,” Sharp said of Quigley, who finished her basketball career with 2,387 career points and scored a single-game best 49 against St. Viator. “She comes from a great Joliet family, she had a terrific college career at DePaul, and continues to shine with the Chicago Sky of the WNBA.” Stefanich, a 1959 graduate, joined the PBA Tour in 1965 and bowled a 300 game in the 1974 Midas Open, which was

“The people on our first list have made such an impact on our schol, our community.”

Verdun named All-American, joins Bandits VIEWS Dick Goss A rainy day afforded the opportunity to clean out a clogged notebook.

• Coal City graduate Kirsten Verdun completed her DePaul softball career in style, and now she’s a Bandit.

Verdun recently was named a National FastPitch Coaches Association All-American for the second time in her Blue Demons’ career. Then she went through a tryout with the Chicago Bandits and signed a professional contract. She is among the team’s pitchers but also can help with her bat.

“I am very fortunate to have gotten this opportunity,” Verdun said in a news release “This is really the chance of a lifetime.”

The left-hander was 33-7 and posted a 1.76 ERA as a senior, when she hit .348 with 11 doubles, seven home runs and 23 RBIs. She struck out 299 in 251 innings in leading the Blue Demons to the Big East regular-season and conference tournament titles and an appearance in the NCAA regional final.

A four-time All-Big East selection, Verdun threw two no-hitters this season and was named Big East Pitcher of the Year in addition to being named Most Outstanding Player at the Big East Tournament.

• Also in Division I softball, Lyndsay Doyle (Minooka) completed her Michigan career by being named a unanimous All-Big Ten outfielder and an NFCA All-Great Lakes second-team selection.

Doyle started all 62 games in center field and as the Wolverines’ leadoff hitter.

She hit .369, raising her career average to .329. She had nine doubles, four triples, a home run and drove in 18 runs.

The home run was a tworun blast against Wisconsin on senior day.

• Guard Allie Quigley (Joliet Catholic) is taking

advantage of her opportunity with the Chicago Sky (5-1). In 19.9 minutes a game, she is averaging 11 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists.

She is 11 for 22 from 3-point range and 7 for 7 from the free-throw line.

Quigley has received more playing time than she did her first full season with the Sky in part because guard Epiphanny Prince has not been playing for personal reasons.

• Brad Guzan (Providence) is the No. 2 goalkeeper for the United States Men’s National Soccer Team.

With the World Cup on the horizon, Guzan could be in the spotlight somewhere along the way, although Tim Howard is the No. 1 keeper.

Guzan spent two years at South Carolina and was a second-team All-American in 2005, when he also was the second overall pick in the MLS Super Draft. He was the 2007 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year. The past six years, he has played with Aston Villa in England.

The United States is in Group G for the World Cup with Germany, Portugal and Ghana.

• Longtime major league catcher Sal Fasano, a Minooka resident, was managing the Toronto Blue Jays’ Double A team at New Hampshire in the Eastern League the last couple of years.

However, his role in the organization has changed.

Before this season, Fasano was reassigned to be the Blue Jays’ roving catching instructor.

• Former major league pitcher Chris Michalak (Joliet Catholic) is a pitching coach in the Washington Nationals organization. He moved up from A-Advanced Potomac to Double-A Harrisburg after last season.

• The major league freeagent draft begins Thursday and continues through Saturday.

I don’t pretend to have any inside information on what may happen when for any of our local baseball standouts. However, a few familiar names may be called somewhere along the way.

VIEWS Rob Oesterle Bernickus was just what the doctor ordered, too. In the bottom of the third, Tinley’s Sam Alberto caught hold of a Burns offering and sent it to left. It caught the jet stream of wind blowing in that direction, and Bernickus kept running after it. Had the Manteno field been 200 feet down the line instead of 205, Morris might have been chasing the lead from that moment on. As it stood, Bernickus reached up a long arm and caught the ball before it could go over the fence.

It should come as no surprise that play gave the Redskins a boost, as they scored in the top of the fourth.

With one out, Alex Cook reached on an error and was replaced by freshman Jasmine Cook. Emily Moore reached on an error, putting runners on first and second.

Burns then hit a 1-1 pitch into left-center for a double, plating Jasmine Cook, and the fans on the Morris side began counting outs.

Tinley Park, however, wasn’t done either. It got a leadoff single and a stolen base from Alberto in the sixth.

Titans pitcher and cleanup hitter Annalisse Scott singled up the middle to score Alberto with the tying run. The next batter lined a shot toward right, but Morris second baseman Taya Torkelson snared it and threw to Alex Cook at first to double off Scott. After a popup to third, Morris went back to work with the bats.

Leah Lines singled, was bunted to second by Bernickus and scored on a single by No. 9 hitter Kelly Kolotka.

That’s a run manufactured by the bottom of the lineup on a day when runs were at a premium. That’s what winning teams do, and it seems like the Redskins who started 15-1 are back. They’ll get another chance to prove it Saturday, when they play for their first sectional title since 1998 at 11 a.m. against Manteno.

SUBMITTED REPORTS LA SALLE – Morris’ baseball team saw its season conclude after dropping a 4-3 decision to Peoria Notre Dame in Wednesday’s Class 3A LaSalle-Peru Sectional semifinals.

Morris led 3-0 after an inning and a half and 3-2 through two innings, but the Irish scored twice in the fifth to move in front. Morris’ Nick Evola gave up six hits and struck out five.

Tim Smyk had an RBI double and Grant Schluntz hit a solo home run for Morris, which finished 28-10.

Austin Conrod and Trevor Lines each added two hits in the defeat.

SOFTBALL Class 3A Manteno Sectional: The hosts scored twice in the eighth inning to defeat

Peotone, 3-1, in the sectional semifinal game.

Other sectional games postponed: Several teams saw their sectional semifinals pushed back a day because of wet field conditions.

Those included Lockport and Lincoln-Way East softball in Class 4A at Andrew; Lemont and Glenbard South softball in Class 3A at Glenbard South; and Plainfield North and Neuqua Valley baseball in Class 4A at Oswego.

SUBMITTED REPORTS SAUGET – The Joliet Slammers swept Southern Illinois in season-opening three-game series at Silver Cross Field, but the tables were turned Tuesday night in the opener of a series on the Miner’s home field.

Southern Illinois scored twice in the third inning off Joliet starter Blair Walters and made that stand up for a 2-0 victory.

Chris Burke drove in the runs with a two-out double to left-center field.

Walters was lifted for Santo Manzanillo after going five innings and allowing two runs on four hits with four strikeouts.

Manzanillo pitched two shutout innings and Chase Doremus pitched a scoreless inning, as well.

The Slammers had at least one runner on base in each of the first seven innings against

Miners starter Miguel Rodriguez. Rodriguez gave up a leadoff double to Russell Moldenhauer in the ninth and was relieved by closer Derrick Miramontes, who retired the next three batters to earn his fourth save.

The final out was a groundout by Jose Garcia, who was making his Slammers’ debut after waiting out Visa troubles.

The game also saw the Joliet debut of right fielder Tyler Grogg from the University of Toledo, who was signed before the game.

Earlier, the Slammers released outfielders Tre-Von Johnson and CJ Epperson.

Moldenhauer finished with three of the Slammers’ seven hits. Joliet stranded eight runners.

The teams were rained out Wednesday night.

MANTENO – Every once in a while, you see a game as a reporter that time and space in the paper don’t let you tell the whole story. Tuesday was such a day, when the Morris softball team advanced to the Class 3A Manteno Sectional final after a 2-1 win over Tinley Park.

How can a 2-1 game have much of a story? Easy, if you saw this one. Although there were only three runs scored, there was probably more excitement packed into the final two innings alone than your typical softball game.

First off, these were two good teams on the field. Tinley Park took third in Class 3A last season, and Morris started this season with 15 wins in its first 16 games. That doesn’t happen by accident.

When you put two good teams on the field, every inning and pretty much every at-bat is precious. Mistakes are going to be at a minimum, so you better be ready to jump on them if, and when, they happen. More often than not, a mistake will lead to a run.

And a run in a game like this is like five runs in any other game.

Start with Morris pitcher Abby Burns, a freshman who owns the circle like a seasoned veteran. Unflappable is a good word for her. If she gives up a hit or a walk, she shakes it off and goes about her business to the next hitter. She served notice early to Tinley Park that she wasn’t going to be intimidated.

The Titans were making a lot of noise in their dugout from the start, ranging from unintelligible gibberish to lifting a chorus from 2 Live Crew. For those of you too young to remember the Crew, let’s just say that it’s not appropriate for younger ears.

The noise got louder in the bottom of the first when Tinley Park had runners on first and second with one out. Burns’ response? Strike out the Nos. 4 and 5 batters, starting a string in which she retired 11 of the next 13.

That will quiet just about any dugout.

Wednesday’s Results

Joakim Noah’s mantel and wallet just became a bit more crowded. The NBA announced Wednesday that the Bulls center earned 2013-14 All-NBA First-Team honors, joining Miami’s LeBron James, Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant, Clippers guard Chris Paul and Houston’s James Harden.

Noah had already walked away with Defensive Player of the Year honors, as well being named to the All-Defensive First Team. But firstteam NBA for the first time in his career is more than just

hardware for Noah. It also means a $500,000 bonus coming from the team, which was built in his contract.

As well as making the All-Star Team for the second consecutive season, it was a breakout year for the 29-yearold. He finished sixth in the NBA in rebounding with 11.3 a game and 12th in blocks with 1.51 a game, but what he did for his own team couldn’t be measured in just numbers.

After Derrick Rose went down with a season-ending right knee injury just 10 games into the season and Luol Deng was traded in January, Noah became the heart of a squad that won 48 games,

despite losing its two top players.

He was not only the leader, but the main facilitator on offense, averaging a career-best 5.4 assists a game.

An effort that was obviously noticed outside of Chicago.

Durant (625 points) and James (623) earned the most points in the voting system, but Noah was third with 551.

The All-NBA Second Team was made up of Blake Griffin, Kevin Love, Dwight Howard, Stephen Curry and Tony Parker, while Paul George, LaMarcus Aldridge, Al Jefferson, Goran Dragic and Damian Lillard made up the third team.

NEW YORK – California Chrome became the early 3-5 favorite Wednesday to win the Belmont Stakes and become horse racing’s 12th Triple Crown champion and first in 36 years.

The Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner will face 10 rivals old and new Saturday at Belmont Park. Since Affirmed became the last Triple Crown winner in 1978, three Belmont fields with the same history on the line also drew 11 horses in 1981, 1988 and 2002.

“They better worry about me,” California Chrome trainer Art Sherman said.

California Chrome will break from the No. 2 post under Victor Espinoza, putting nine horses to his outside and giving Espinoza a good look at the early speed. Eleven Belmont winners have come out of that spot in the starting gate, the last being Tabasco Cat in 1994.

“I like number two,” Espinoza said. “Hopefully, it’s my lucky number.”

Racing fans looking for an omen will see California Chrome listed No. 2 in the betting program, the same number as 1973 Triple Crown winner Secretariat, who won the Belmont by a record 31

The Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner will attempt to become the first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978 when he races in the Belmont Stakes on Saturday. lengths while setting a track record that stands for the 1½mile race.

California Chrome went for his usual gallop earlier Wednesday, and Sherman was pleased.

“I feel better about this race than I have any other race, to be honest with you, just looking at the horse and saying, ‘Wow,’” he said. “I see how far he’s advanced. I know it’ll be tougher going a mile and a half, but this horse is a good horse. I think he’s the real McCoy.” Of California Chrome’s 10 rivals, four come into the Belmont off a five-week break.

Commanding Curve hasn’t run since finishing second in the Kentucky Derby on May 3; Wicked Strong has been off since stumbling and finishing fourth in the Derby.

Two other Derby horses, Samraat (fifth) and Medal Count (eighth), also skipped the Preakness on May 17.

Wicked Strong was a distant second choice at 6-1 and drew post No. 9. The colt is based at Belmont, and has one win in two previous races at the sprawling track.

“I’m pretty confident; as confident as I can be,” Wicked Strong trainer Jimmy Jerkens said.

A better understanding of the words Former Joliet music director returns to perform piano-only concert Friday

OLIET – The people sing along in their minds.

That’s just one advantage to performing a concert consisting solely of piano music, said G. Richard Deal, concert pianist and former music director at Faith Bible Church in Joliet. Deal is set to return Friday afternoon to the church to present one such concert.

The other benefits include no language barriers – important for performances overseas, Deal said – no pressure on the audience to sing and the option for people to silently follow the lyrics in a hymnal if they desire.

“I only use familiar songs,” Deal said. “It gives them a better understanding of the words when they sing to themselves. People have told me after concerts that they really appreciate just concentrating on the music.”

Interspersing scripture with commentaries, Deal will perform a variety of hymns, contemporary praise and worship selections and classical music. “Amazing Grace” and “How Great Thou Art” are audience favorites, which Deal includes every time.

“I think the message of the music should drive the concert,” Deal said, “not just the style. I point to Christ through God the father and the Holy Spirit.”

Deal began taking piano lessons at age 7 because his musical parents were providing them to his year older sister and Deal wanted them, too. He continued taking lessons for 30 years, the last 20 with piano master William Browning, until Browning’s 1997 death.

“In-between concert tours, we’d work on advanced things and then I’d go back on the road,” Deal said.

According to Deal’s web-

G. Richard Deal, former Faith Bible Church music director, returns Friday for a piano concert of sacred and classical music. site, www.grdpianoministry. org, he received a Bachelor of Music and Master of Music degrees from the American and Sherwood Conservatories of Music, respectively. He also received an advanced studies diploma from the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.

In his church ministries, Deal has served as pianist, conductor, minister of music and concert soloist, and has performed and ministered in Europe, Asia and South America, as well as North America,

the website also stated.

Deal also has appeared with symphony orchestras, including a concert at Chicago’s Orchestra Hall. He has participated in international piano competitions, most notably the Tchaikovsky International Piano Competition in Moscow, according to the website.

But since age 12, Deal had dreamed of traveling to churches and presenting the gospel through his piano music, Deal said. So in 1985, Deal rented studio time, recorded a

cassette and then began pitching the concept to Chicago area churches. By 1986, Deal said he was touring.

Deal’s schedule is so full he books concerts six to 12 months in advance. According to his website, Deal doesn’t formally charge for performances, just travel expenses and free will offerings.

The venue does need to provide the piano, but a large grand is not necessary. Small grands and uprights, as well as 88-key, digital, electric pi-

anos work, too. He only requests that pianos be in good repair and tuned.

Through the years, Deal has taught private piano lessons, starting at age 16 with several children from church.

From 1999 to 2004, Deal also taught music at Moody Bible Institute in Chicago on an adjunct basis. Deal served as music director at Faith Bible Church from 2001-2012.

Deal lives in California but has returned to the Chicago area to perform seven concerts in 10 days. Although he still teaches and enjoys it, his heart is mainly focused on this unique music ministry.

“I don’t see myself retiring from doing this [performing], unless I can’t,” Deal said. “I really enjoy it and I think God has gifted me so I can share with other people.”

His piano students range in age from preschool through their 70s. One former student turned out to be Deal’s heating and air conditioning technician. Another student, forsaking piano lessons for soccer in the sixth grade, returned as a 12th grader. He’s never had a student he could not teach.

“I think if a teacher is good then a student should make progress, even if it’s only a little bit,” Deal said.

And for his concerts? Deal only wants the audience to revel in the music and leave reflecting on the message sent to them through that music.

“I hope it positively affects their life through the weekend,” he said.

PUZZLES CROSSWORD

SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Keep control of a bad break

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Professor Shlomo Benartzi, an expert on various types of behavioral finance, said, “Self-control is not a problem in the future.

It’s only a problem now when the chocolates are next to us.”

Keeping the trump suit under control is often a problem of what to do now, at this trick. Today’s deal would trip the unwary or the perennially optimistic. How should South play in four spades after West leads the heart six?

East opened with a textbook vulnerable weak two-bid, promising a good six-card suit and 6-10 high-card points. South made a takeout double, and North cue-bid to indicate at least 12 high-card points. South started showing four-card suits in ascending order, and North raised to game in spades.

South has two losers in the red suits, so at first glance needs to find spades 3-2. However, on closer inspection, declarer will notice that he can discard dummy’s heart losers on his club winners.

Without further thought, but perhaps after eating an orange cream or two, South would win with dummy’s heart ace, cash the two top trumps (getting the bad news), and take his three clubs, discarding dummy’s hearts.

However, when he next plays a diamond, West wins with his ace, draws trumps, and leads a heart, resulting in down four.

Often, when you must make use of a side suit, it is right to play on that suit first. Here, declarer should win the first trick, draw one round of trumps, take his heart discards on the clubs, and play a diamond. Everything is then under control. South loses only two spades and one diamond.

ADVICE Husband’s betrayal puts his wife’s health at risk Get sex education sooner Dear Abby: I just found out my husband was arrested for being with a hooker. My in-laws (whom I love and adore) bailed him out of jail. No one said a word about it to me. I don’t know how to confront all of them with the fact that I know about this “dirty little secret.” What should I do? – Betrayed Wife Dear Betrayed: First, visit your gynecologist and ask to be treated for every STD known to man. Then invite your in-laws to a “family dinner,” tell them the cat is out of the bag and ask why this was kept from you.

And while you’re at it, ask your mother-in-law (whom you love and adore) how SHE would feel if your father-in-law had possibly exposed her to an STD and it had been kept from her.

The apple doesn’t fall far from

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips the tree.

Dear Abby: I’ll bet this is an issue in many homes. When my son “Chet” graduated from high school, we gave him a very nice graduation party, which included his friends and family.

He received many gifts.

I gave my son thank-you cards, stamps, and a detailed list of whom to send the cards to. So far, he has refused. Chet is normally thoughtful and considerate. I don’t know what to do. I’m embarrassed by his lack of gratitude. I have told him we have received thank-yous from his friends and that the cards

can be brief. Should I send the thank-you notes myself, or just let it go? – Embarrassed Mom In California Dear Mom: If the amount of mail I receive from readers complaining that their gifts are not acknowledged is an accurate barometer, your problem is very common. Without being confrontational, ask your son why he refuses to thank the people who gave him gifts. If the answer is he doesn’t know what to say and he’s embarrassed that he has procrastinated, offer to help him by making suggestions. You’re right; the thank-yous don’t have to be lengthy. But DO NOT write them for him. Chet is a big boy and the responsibility is his.

Statins have benefits beyond lowering cholesterol Dear Doctor K: I had bypass surgery last year, and I’ve been on two different statins. But I had severe muscle and joint pain. Do I really need to be on a statin? The side effects are awful for me.

Dear Reader: Statins are the most widely prescribed cholesterol-lowering drugs. They significantly lower levels of harmful LDL cholesterol in the body. And they’ve been shown to reduce death, heart attack and stroke risk by up to 30 percent in people at high risk.

Although statins were developed with the goal of lowering LDL cholesterol, they turn out to have at least one other major benefit. They quiet the inflammation that is inside plaques of atherosclerosis in arteries of the heart, brain and other organs.

That inflammation-fighting effect also protects against heart attacks and strokes. That’s the reason that recent authoritative guidelines recommend that people with, or at risk for, atherosclerosis take statins – regardless of their cholesterol levels.

Most people tolerate statins without a problem, but statins can cause side effects, including muscle and joint aches. I spoke to my colleague Dr. Jorge Plutzky, director of the Vascular Disease Prevention Program at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Wom-

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff en’s Hospital, about this problem.

Here’s what he shared: Muscle and joint aches typically go away gradually as your body adjusts to a statin. If not, switching to a lower dose, a different statin, or an every-other-day medication schedule should help.

Another option is to take an over-the-counter coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) supplement along with your statin. CoQ10 replaces an enzyme depleted by statins. Advocates say it relieves and prevents muscle pain. These benefits have not been proven in rigorous studies, but the supplement is unlikely to hurt you. And it may allow you to continue taking your statin.

There’s another, far more serious, muscle-related side effect of statins that you may be concerned about. It’s called rhabdomyolysis, a breakdown of muscle tissue that leads to the release of muscle fiber contents into the bloodstream. The symptoms of rhabdomyolysis are severe, body-wide aching, severe muscle weakness and cola-colored urine. They leave little doubt that something is terribly wrong.

Still, if you develop muscle aches with statin use, tell your

doctor. A simple blood test can tell if your muscle is, in fact, breaking down. If not, your doctor will likely encourage you to remain on a statin because of its tremendous lifesaving potential.

If you simply can’t tolerate statins, ask your doctor about non-statin cholesterol-lowering medications. I’ve put a table listing several cholesterol-lowering drugs, along with their benefits and side effects, on my website, AskDoctorK.com.

Fortunately, I’ve never had a patient who developed the rare muscle problem that statins can cause. But I have had patients who developed mild muscle symptoms.

By adjusting the dose, or switching to another statin drug, the symptoms have disappeared.

And while I’ve enthusiastically spoken about the benefits that statins can have, please don’t misunderstand. Statins are not for everyone, and they’re not the only way that people with atherosclerosis, or who are at risk for atherosclerosis, can protect themselves.

Regular exercise and a hearthealthy diet are equally powerful, and add to the benefits of statins.

Girls: Are teen girls receiving sex education information regarding abstinence and birth control before starting a sexual relationship? The answer is a resounding “NO!” According to a study released recently by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, among girls who were sexually experienced, 83 percent said they didn’t get formal sex education until after they had their first sexual experience.

Most girls ages 15 to 17 in the study (91 percent) said they had completed an effective sex education class that included birth control and ways to say “No” to sex. But for many of the sexually active female teens, the class was too late because they were already sexually active.

This represents a “missed opportunity” to introduce medically accurate information according to the researchers. The study also noted that only 15 percent of teen girls ages 15 to 17 used a birth control method at least “moderately” effective the first time they had sex.

It’s obvious that sex education classes should be lowered to provide 14-year-olds (high school freshmen) with effective sex education information and opportunities to have important questions answered accurately and professionally.

Dr. Wallace: I’m 13 and my 9-year-old brother has a big problem. He has a very foul mouth and he is constantly using it. I think it’s a very uncouth habit, but my parents think it’s cute when he swears. When I discuss the problem with my parents they laugh and say that he is just going through a phase and that he will grow

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace out of it. If that’s true, how long will it take? I’m embarrassed to bring my friends over to our house because of my brother’s “salty” vocabulary. – Hannah, Griffith, Ind. Dear Hannah: Your brother is not going through a “phase,” therefore he won’t “grow” out of it. Your parents are doing him a disfavor when they laugh at his swearing. The best way to stop the habit is to demand that his vocabulary improve drastically and punish him drastically if it doesn’t.

Dr. Wallace: A good friend of mine was injured in an automobile accident, and her parents are asking her friends to donate a pint of blood to help her out. I want to donate, but my dad won’t let me because he heard that donors can be in contact with sexually-transmitted infections and other diseases.

Is this true, and why would anyone give blood if it is? – Nameless, Jacksonville, Fla. Dear Nameless: According to the Centers for Disease Control, the U.S. Public Health Services and the Surgeon General, there is no danger from giving blood at a blood bank. The needles used for blood donations are always brand new and when used once, and only once, the needles are destroyed.

I hope your father reconsiders and permits you to help your friend in a time of need by donating a pint of blood.

‘Edge of Tomorrow’: Cruising back to save the day

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY –You are in a good position this year, but you could spoil your chances of success with negativity and anxiety. You have the knowledge and determination to achieve, but insecurities will weigh you down and hold you back. Strive to increase your self-confidence, and you will go far.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – This is not the time to be pushy. Compromise is required.

Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Be sensitive, and let others have their say.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Get in touch with someone from your past. It’s time to revive an old friendship or flame. Make the first move, and see if a response is elicited.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – If you have been neglectful in any way, it’s time to make amends. Life is too short to waste your time arguing. Compromise is a good place to begin when dealing with an important relationship.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – A delightful surprise will brighten your day. Love and romance are highlighted, so spend some extra-special time with the people you love the most. Actions speak louder than words.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – You will get caught up in a dispute. Before you make any suggestions, get the facts. Keeping the peace will be more difficult than anticipated. Be prepared to back away if necessary.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – You will be unsure of how to deal with an important decision. Go back to the people you have trusted in the past. Their input will help you to make the right choices.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Collaborative ventures should be avoided today.

Do your homework. You can make a small investment pay off, but it must be on your terms. Work alone.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – It’s time to tackle home beautification and domestic chores. Yardwork, redecoration and reorganization are good ways to spruce up your surroundings and burn a few calories.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Imagination is only part of the equation for a successful effort. Changes need to be made, and now is the time to make things happen. You have waited long enough to reach your goals. Forge ahead.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Someone is trying to deceive you. Don’t believe what you are told. You will have to get the information firsthand if you want to discover the truth.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Don’t be afraid to say no. It’s good to offer help, but before you do, take care of your responsibilities. You don’t have to be superhuman.

Take a break.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Do whatever it takes to enjoy life today. Your health will suffer if you’re constantly worrying.

Go out and do something with the people who make you happy.

By ANN HORNADAY The Washington Post It’s so easy to be glib in dismissing summer blockbusters: They’ve gotten too big, too loud, too dependent on slick computer effects and too dismissive of fusty ideas like narrative and character arc.

How depressing the routine has become, watching otherwise gifted stars squander their talents on the altar of the lowest common denominator.

Then, something like “Edge of Tomorrow” comes along, and it looks like there’s still hope. A crafty, clever, stylish science-fiction action adventure, this time-travel loop-de-loop didn’t have to be this good. But thanks to the efforts of a superb creative team and Tom Cruise – here deploying his own persona with stunning self-awareness and humor – what might have been a throwaway genre exercise instead turns out to be a surprisingly satisfying day-after-day-after-day at the movies.

Synopsis is not our friend when it comes to summing up “Edge of Tomorrow,” whose title was mercifully changed from the dreadful “All You Need is Kill” (the name of the Japanese novel it’s based on).

Cruise plays Maj. William Cage, a media relations officer with the U.S. Army of the very near future, when Europe has been overrun with an alien force of huge, hissing, squidlike dervishes. When Cage is unexpectedly drafted into a platoon readying to invade France, he blanches: He’s a coward, all too ready to use his disarming grin and adman charms to get out of any real danger.

Instead, Cage is plopped down at Forward Operating Base Heathrow, in London, where he’s outfitted with a computerized exoskeleton that turns him into a rock ‘em, sock ‘em robot. Also training at the base is a world-famous special forces soldier named Rita Vrataski (Emily Blunt), known as the Angel of Verdun for her heroics at that epon-

Tom Cruise stars in the futuristic film “Edge of Tomorrow.” ymous alien battle. The two eventually cross paths, with Cage being tossed into a repetitive and deadly time loop that resembles a cross between “Groundhog Day,” “Saving Private Ryan” and Wile E. Coyote’s worst morning ever.

If that last reference suggests a note of antic physical humor, that’s because “Edge of Tomorrow,” which has been brilliantly adapted by brothers Jez and John-Henry Butterworth and Christopher McQuarrie, pops with moments of welcome, unexpected levity, especially when Cage begins to grok what’s happening to him and begins to riff and rush along encounters that he’s been through dozens of times before.

Aided by the crackerjack cutting prowess of editor James Herbert, director Doug Liman skillfully conveys the endless repetition without making “Edge of Tomorrow” repetitive itself, quickly, and often amusingly, cutting to the chase of each sequence,

during each of which Cage tries to nudge reality just a little bit further in the direction of survival and saving the world.

As light as “Edge of Tomorrow” is on its feet, it still manages to balance that fleetness with visceral, impressively staged battle sequences.

Borrowing nomenclature and visual language from classic World War II films, the film re-imagines D-Day as a hightech aerial assault on Normandy, with terrifying tentacled creatures rising out of the waters and flaming shards of planes crashing down on their own human cargo.

The tableau is gruesome and intense, with Cage initially a passive, horrified victim and then, eventually, an agent in a carefully ritualized study in fate, human nature and the possibility of growth and change.

Like the classic war films it lovingly quotes, “Edge of Tomorrow” even has a ragtag group of misfits, in this case

the battle-scarred squad that Cage is thrown into over and over again by his drawling master sergeant, played with a barely discernible wink by Bill Paxton. (When Cage notes from his Southern accent that he’s obviously American, Paxton flawlessly barks back, “No sir, I’m from Kentucky!”)

But the centerpiece of “Edge of Tomorrow” is the burgeoning relationship between Cage and Rita, whom Blunt invests with just the right mix of machisma and soulfulness. (Between this, “The Adjustment Bureau” and “Looper,” she’s apparently the go-to girl when it comes to busting the time-space continuum.)

Even with Blunt charismatically holding her own, the undisputed star of “Edge of Tomorrow” is Cruise, who, as the story’s reluctant hero, delivers a one-man master class in his own fascinatingly protean screen presence.

Starting out as a shallow, cocksure sharpie “Jerry Maguire” – even sporting some “Risky Business” baby fat – he smoothly navigates the myriad tiny transformations that Cage goes through, until he becomes the flinty, competent, steely eyed saverof-the-day that his “Mission: Impossible” years have taught us to expect.

What’s more, he earns every beat in a performance that calls on him to undergo all manner of physical punishments and slapstick indignities. Like summer movies themselves, it’s become so easy to be glib in dismissing Tom Cruise.

“Edge of Tomorrow” provides welcome and hugely entertaining evidence that he’s still a star of considerable gifts, and savvy enough not to let them be squandered just yet.

• “Edge of Tomorrow” received three out of four stars and is rated PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi action and violence, language and brief suggestive material. The film runs 113 minutes.
