Plainfield making plans to replace dead ash trees Village to order 500 new trees from supplier

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – The village of Plainfield’s public works department is trying to get ahead of other municipalities in replacing trees infested with emerald ash borer beetles.

The village approved Monday a $150,000 order of 500 parkway trees from the Suburban Tree Consortium. Normally, trees are ordered much later in the summer season, according to Public Works Director Allen Persons.

“The earlier you can get authorization in the year the better,” Persons said. “If you wait too long in the season, you’re competing with the other communities for the best trees out there.”

The village has previously purchased trees from the con-

sortium, which works with tree nurseries to provide low rates for high-quality trees to participating members.

The consortium mostly includes other western suburbs.

Plainfield and New Lenox are the only municipalities from Will County participating in it.

After the village makes an order, employees then head to nurseries and pick out trees.

The trees are reserved for when the village is ready to plant them.

The number of ash trees in Plainfield has fallen from 5,322 in 2010 to an estimated 2,365 by the end of 2014.

The threat of the emerald ash borer beetle has quickly spread throughout the Chicago and Joliet areas.

Multiple communities are removing thousands of ash trees each year, including Joliet, Plainfield, Lockport, Channahon, Bolingbrook and Lemont.

Plainfield has seen an exponential rise in trees infested and removed the past four years. In 2011, 112 trees were removed, according to data

collected by the village.

That number ballooned to 387 trees in 2012, 1,008 trees in 2013 and an estimated 1,450 trees at the end of 2014.

By then, the village will have planted about 1,700 replacement trees.

The village removes ash trees that are at least 50 percent dead. The dead tree’s branches can become brittle and fall when coated with ice in the winter, presenting a safety hazard to people walking nearby.

“In the past when we first started, removals were done in winter time,” Persons said.

“But now it’s so evident and so prominent, we take trees down all year-round.”

Some trees are so big and old that the village does not have the right equipment to cut them down. So the Village Board also approved contractual services with Arbor Tek Inc. to cut down those trees at a cost not to exceed $100,000.

Persons said the village will cut down about 400 more ash trees this year while Arbor Tek will cut down 200 larger trees.

Pit bull goes after deputy, is shot dead Police say dispute started over $6 fare

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET TOWNSHIP – Police say a dispute over a $6 cab ride led to a deputy killing a pit bull last weekend.

At 3:30 a.m. Saturday, a taxi driver called Will County sheriff’s police to the 500 block of North Briggs Street to report a theft.

Spokeswoman Kathy Hoffmeyer said the cabbie told deputies he’d picked up Joyce C. Lewandowski, 49, and Charles R. Bregenzer, 35, at Washington and Anderson streets to bring them home.

The couple allegedly told the driver they would get

money to pay the $6 fare from inside their house, but never came back.

Hoffmeyer said when deputies knocked on the door, Lewandowski told them to leave before she “would let her crazy dog out to tear them up and eat them alive.” Lewandowski instead came out and knocked a deputy backward with the storm door, Hoffmeyer said.

As officers restrained Lewandowski, Bregenzer told them to let her go and opened the door for an 80-pound pit

bull to come out with him, Hoffmeyer said.

“The dog then charged at a deputy, biting his leg,” Hoffmeyer said. The deputy who was being bitten shot the dog twice, killing it.

“Both suspects appeared to be highly intoxicated,” Hoffmeyer noted.

The dog’s body was removed by Joliet Township Animal Control. It had already bitten someone on a prior occasion, according to reports.

Lewandowski and Bregenzer were arrested and booked into the Will County Jail on charges of theft and battery.

Bregenzer also was charged with obstructing police and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Court records show formal charges had not been filed in the case as of Thursday.

Jail working to fix visitation system Power surge in June 30 storm knocked it out

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Will County jail officials hope to allow limited inmate visits via video starting Friday after a major power surge caused by recent storms rendered the visitation center’s entire video and audio system inoperable.

It’s been nearly two weeks since the June 30 storms knocked out the jail’s video visitation system, keeping the facility’s 800 inmates from being able to speak with family members, friends or attorneys. The jail saw other outages, but the video visitation system was the most significant.

Jail officials briefed members of the Will County Board’s Executive Committee on Thursday about the urgent need to get the system back up and running. “[We want to] not just get

Rob Winner – rwinner@shawmedia.com

The Will County Adult Detention Facility Visitation Center’s video and audio system were damaged during the severe weather June 30. the system back to full functionality, but get it up as fast as we can,” said Michael O’Leary, chief deputy at the adult detention facility.

Nate Romeo, deputy chief for support services, said the damaged part – an audio/ video switcher – is a “critical component” to the system’s overall functions. Repair costs total $93,755, he said.

Board members initially questioned spending that kind

of money on just one component of the center’s current 7-year-old, analog-based A/V system when the center could install a new digital system for about $430,000.

“So if we repair that, are we talking about an obsolete system already?” said Mike Fricilone, R-Homer Glen.

One issue is that the insurance company will only cover the cost of the least-expensive solution after the county pays

a $25,000 deductible, officials said.

Another issue is that opting for a new system entirely would require more downtime, which is not a situation officials want to find themselves in, O’Leary said.

“Time is an issue here. …

We would be limping along on this system,” he said. “The other issue for me, as the administrator, this has a security component. People having access to their attorneys and to their visitors, their family, keeps the attitude down. It keeps the attitude very positive. If we take that away for a prolonged period of time, we’re asking for trouble.”

Repairs will be done through the Naperville-based company, Stanley Convergent Security Solutions. It’s unclear how quickly the company will fully repair the system, but officials said the first week of August is one scenario.

Staff has been able to repair a portion of the system by hard-wiring 15 of the 135 visiting stations, Will County Sheriff’s Deputy Chief Ken Kaupas said.

The temporary repair al-

lows visitations to resume on a limited basis beginning Friday.

Inmates will get one 30-minute video visit per week, but the limited number of operating stations means fewer inmates will be able to communicate with visitors.

The center typically sees about 4,000 to 5,000 visitations on a monthly basis, but visits have been “virtually zero” since the June 30 storms, O’Leary said.

Due to the lack of access, Brian Fink, deputy chief of operations, said it’s a guarantee that the county jail “will get some lawsuits out of this” from inmates.

However, Fink and Kaupas maintained any lawsuit would have very little basis because the June 30 storms are considered “an act of God.” The jail is acting accordingly by trying to get the system restored as soon as possible, he said.

The morning after the June 30 storms was a busy one, Kaupas said.

“It was an early morning.

The phone calls and emails started in early,” he said.

“There was some initial angst.”

Engineering study OK’d for Black Road trail work Forest preserve district to pursue grant for bikeway

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Forest Preserve District of Will County’s Board of Commissioners on Thursday awarded an engineering contract to begin planning trail improvements along Black Road.

The $100,556 contract goes to Christopher B. Burke En-

gineering of Woodridge. The Black Road Trail project in Joliet includes the design and construction of two trail segments on the south side of Black Road connecting the DuPage River and Rock Run Greenway trails.

Once constructed, the crossing will provide safe passage over Interstate 55 near Black Road, said Marcy DeMauro, executive director for the district. That segment of the trail is in Joliet.

“This was definitely needed,” DeMauro said. “When you bike across, you’re basically putting your life in your own

hands.”

In April the district was awarded a $963,000 state grant for the project, providing an 80 percent match to local funds.

Part of those funds will help pay for the phase one study.

The district plans to apply for a second state grant worth $1.1 million to build a 260-foot bridge over the DuPage River and a new trail connection on the south side of Black Road.

For the $100,000 project, the district will provide a $20,000 local match, according to a district memo.

The money will come from license and mitigation fees

received from the Illinois Department of Transportation because of construction work on Interstate 80 that had an impact on forest preserves.

If the second grant is approved, the two projects – a pedestrian bridge over I-55 and another over the DuPage River – would be built simultaneously. Construction wouldn’t begin until late 2016 or early 2017.

grant through the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning for a countywide bikeway plan.

The bikeway plan would serve as a “companion document” to CMAP’s regional comprehensive GO TO 2040 plan, DeMauro said.

Will County is the only county in CMAP’s seven-county region without an established detailed bikeway plan, she said.

Countywide bikeway plan “It’s not only about recreOn Thursday, the district’s ation,” DeMauro said. “[The board of commissioners also plan] is about providing an alapproved a resolution allow- ternative means of transportaing the district to apply for a tion in the county.”

JOLIET – Enrollment trends that have led to some Joliet Grade School District 86 students moving to different schools this year could ease in the near future, school administrators say.

Families had been notified of changes in where children will attend school for 2014-15.

But enrollment pressures could ease in coming years because of a declining birth rate, administrators told school board members this week.

In a presentation to the school board’s Facilities Committee on Wednesday night, E. Wesley Russell, assistant superintendent for Business and Financial Services, said state data shows that births from 2008 to 2012 were down in Will County.

That means fewer students should be coming into elementary schools in the next few years, and numbers should go down at junior high schools in the future.

Will County births dropped from 9,601 in 2008 to 7,975 in 2012, according to Russell’s presentation. The school district projects that kindergarten enrollment should decline from 2013 enrollment of 1,359 students to an estimated 1,123 students by 2017.

Total enrollment in those elementary schools is expected to decline from 7,695 students estimated in 2014 to 6,985 students estimated in 2018, a decrease of 710 students. Junior high enrollment, however, is projected to increase by 316 students, from 3,335 to 3,651, in that same time period.

Russell cautioned, howev-

er, that the birth trends need to be examined more closely using actual enrollment numbers in the coming school year.

“This is good news. We see relief on the way,” Superintendent Charles Coleman said.

“However, the ideal situation would be to build a new junior high school.”

The school board responded cautiously to the idea of a new building because of budget concerns.

Board President Jeffrey Pritz said that if a drop in kindergarten enrollment is expected then the district should continue to “work the boundaries” for the time period “until we hit an area that cannot be fixed.”

Meanwhile, the district has decided that new junior high school students from the Forest Park area would no longer enroll at Hufford and Gompers junior high schools. Instead, they will go to Washington Junior High School.

However, students who have siblings already enrolled at Gompers and Hufford will be able to attend those schools.

About 53 students will be affected by this change, so two new teachers have been added to Washington to accommodate the growth in enrollment, Coleman said.

Also, preschool programs at Woodland have been relocated to Marshall Elementary School and Marycrest Early Childhood Center, which will open up two classrooms.

Also, about 50 bilingual students in the third, fourth and fifth grades who previously would have enrolled at Cunningham Elementary School will instead attend Thigpen Elementary School.

On the Main Stage The featured entertainment will take place on the Main Stage during the entire Heritage Fest. The lineup includes: • 4 to 4:30 p.m.: Allegro Zumba Party • 4:30 to 5:30 p.m.: Allegro Music Student Showcase • 5:30 to 6 p.m.: Andrea Veltri • 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.: 80’s Enough • 9 to 11 p.m.: Timing’s Everything

• Friday, July 11, 2014

LEMONT – Heritage Fest, the Village of Lemont’s big summer festival, will take over the streets of downtown Lemont from 4 to 11 p.m. Saturday.

It will be the second year that the festival has a later start time of 4 p.m. for its family activities.

Village Marketing Coordinator Donna Pecina said she would have expected people to prefer an earlier start time.

But the turnout showed differently.

“It seemed to be more convenient for parents,” she said.

“There were way more people out for the whole duration.”

Pecina said she thinks the later start time conflicts less with children’s activity schedules and the cooler temperatures are more attractive to families.

Heritage Fest has two new attractions in its family entertainment area: the Meltdown and the Spider Climb. Pecina said she has not seen these attractions at events in other towns, so they should be new to attendees.

The Meltdown is a game where people on inflatable stands have to either jump over or duck under a giant, rotating arm. On the Spider Climb, people climb up through levels of elastic bands until they reach a giant slide at the top.

The festival has plenty of returning entertainment, such as a dunk tank, face painting, antique fire truck, pony rides, petting zoo, trackless train, windjammer, rock climbing wall, jumpee, make-it take-it

Heritage Fest

Lemont’s Heritage Fest features several activities happening between 4 to 8 p.m.: • Bingo at Budnik’s Plaza, 4 to 7 p.m.

• Old Time Photos, 5 to 7 p.m.

• Salt Creek Model A Ford Car Show, 4 to 8 p.m.

• Inflatables and rides, 4 to 8 p.m.

• Smash the car, 4 to 8 p.m.

cookies, smash the car, games and art activities.

There will also be several local food and craft vendors and booths for local community organizations.

Top Flight Volleyball Club will have volleyball games going on throughout the event, and there will be bingo, old time photos and a Model A Ford car show.

Heritage Fest may have added significance without a Keepataw Days festival this year.

Grace Smiles, 13, of Lemont, takes the plunge in the dunk tank at Lemont’s Heritage Fest last year. in December, and, with no one to run it, there will be no Labor Day weekend festival this year.

That means Heritage Fest is the only festival of its kind taking place in downtown Lemont this summer.

Pecina said residents have called her, asking about Keepataw Days, not realizing that the village was not in charge of the event and that there will be no Keepataw Days this year.

“I think it will make people make sure that they get to [the

Illinois Concealed Carry Permit

festival] that’s still going on,” she said.

Pecina said Heritage Fest is designed to be a low-cost to nocost family event.

“This is all about Lemont,” she said. “It’s all about our heritage, our people.”

District board eyes $69M capital plan

the cost of projects to taxpayers in the future.

The consultants and Grodsky told the board that a tax referendum is not out of the question, but it could be augmented by other investment strategies to lessen the financial impact on the community.

“You can barely print money cheaper than it is to borrow right now,” Grodsky said. “So if you want to have less impact on your community, on your township park district, probably now is as good a time to borrow as any because your rates are low.”

Grodsky said the district’s Standard and Poor’s AA bond rating keeps it in a good financial condition.

“The district is in a good place,” he said. “Right now it uses a cash and carry method.

What a financial plan will do is help you get from point A to point B so you have the funds available.”

PLAINFIELD – A tax referendum is among the options suggested for funding $69 million in capital expenditures over the next 10 years in the Plainfield Township Park District.

Interim Executive Director Richard Grodsky, who was hired by the district’s board of commissioners to organize and fix the park district’s operations, presented a longterm capital plan to the board Wednesday, which could be his last board meeting.

The park board is interviewing candidates for permanent executive director. Board President Mary Kay Ludemann said the executive director search process is ongoing.

“You do have a lot of options available to you,” Grodsky told the board at the meeting, adding that funding projects starts with a detailed, longterm capital plan. “You need to start with the projects. We can find ways for you to pay for it. The question becomes you need to start project priority and timing.”

Capital projects include new operating equipment and machinery purchases, land acquisitions and property improvements. The projects have long, useful lives of at least five years and result in the creation or revitalization of a fixed asset.

A presentation about bonds and financing, led by consultants Lynda Given of Chapman & Cutler and Steve Larson of Ehlers & Associates, took up most of Wednesday’s meeting.

They explained to commissioners how the park district could manipulate its finances and issue bonds to decrease

Panel probing Quinn violence program will meet next week

CHICAGO – Members of a legislative panel investigating Gov. Pat Quinn’s troubled anti-violence program plan to meet next week even after federal authorities asked them to hold off while they conduct their own probe, lawmakers said Thursday.

However, the 12-member bipartisan panel differed on what should happen next, with some Republicans saying they won’t heed the U.S. Department of Justice’s request to suspend proceedings and some Democrats saying the opposite.

The Legislative Audit Commission oversees state audits and must approve a review that details “pervasive” mismanagement and misspending in Quinn’s 2010 program. The program offered, among other things, job training and help for former inmates in Chicago neighborhoods plagued by violence. However, commission members said the audit left questions unanswered and they have subpoenaed seven former Quinn aides to testify over two days next week.

Earlier this week, commission members said U.S. Department of Justice attorneys requested they suspend interviews connected to the Neighborhood Recovery Initiative for 90 days.

State retirees await insurance premium refunds

SPRINGFIELD – There’s no timeline yet for the return of nearly $23 million in health insurance premiums that the Illinois Supreme Court has recently ruled belong to state retirees.

The Springfield State Jour-

Robin Scholz – The News-Gazette

Wheat grower John Little (left) and his son, Jeff, are seen July 7 in their field near Tolono, south of Champaign, where they grow wheat for seed for Illinois Foundation Seeds. As Illinois farmers work their way through the harvest of winter wheat, many are finding the harsh winter was tough on their crops, with some in parts of central Illinois saying their production is down. Little told The News-Gazette he expects his 40 acres of winter wheat to yield a crop that might be near average. He’s guessing about 75 bushels an acre. In past years, that figure was as high as 90.

nal-Register reports that the money is being held in escrow with retirees continuing to pay into the special state account.

The court’s 6-1 ruling on July 3 allows retirees to continue with their lawsuit in Sangamon County Circuit Court seeking to prevent the state government from forcing employees to pay for part of their own health care.

At issue is a law passed in 2012 that allows the state to collect premiums from retirees for their state-subsidized health care. Before that, state workers who retired with 20 or more years of service were entitled to premium-free health insurance.

Under the new law, retirees had to cover part of the cost.

Springfield attorney John Myers, who worked on one of the lawsuits filed on behalf of retirees challenging the state’s insurance premium law, de-

scribed matters as “somewhat in flux.”

“The decision last week is a huge win, and all parties concerned have to figure out how to implement it,” Myers said.

Funeral plans announced for ex-Sen. Alan Dixon

BELLEVILLE – Memorial services will be held next week for former U.S. Sen. Alan Dixon of Illinois, who died Sunday at age 86 at his home in Fairview Heights. He was an Illinois Democrat, and his career in national and state politics spanned more than 40 consecutive years in public office.

Dixon was in the U.S. Senate from 1981 to 1993. He served as the third-ranking Democrat and chaired a subcommittee of the Armed Services Committee.

The visitation will be Sunday

from 3 to 8 p.m. at Lindenwood University’s auditorium in Belleville. The funeral will be at 11 a.m. Monday at the same location.

Springfield man sues after he was denied gun ID card

SPRINGFIELD – A Springfield man is suing the Illinois State Police, saying the agency is taking too long to review his appeal of their denial of his Firearm Owner’s Identification card even though he received a gubernatorial pardon for previous felony convictions.

Donn Malwick, 63, filed the lawsuit against state police director Hiram Grau on June 20 in Sangamon County Circuit Court, The State Journal-Register reported Thursday.

Malwick is suing because he appealed his FOID card

denial in September and hasn’t received an answer. A state police spokeswoman declined comment on the legal action, but said there is no “statutory mandate for the time period for the response to an appeal.”

Aug. 1 deadline for claims in computer settlement

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois officials say consumers have until Aug. 1 to claim money they may have overpaid for computerized equipment containing DRAM, a type of electronic memory chip.

The claims may be made under a $310 million settlement reached with Illinois and other states in a federal antitrust lawsuit. People who bought computers and other electronic devices from 1998 to 2002 could be eligible.

Faster deportations? A possible border crisis deal The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Outlines of a possible compromise that would more quickly deport minors arriving from Central America emerged Thursday as part of President Barack Obama’s $3.7 billion emergency request to address the immigration crisis on the nation’s southern border.

Republicans demanded speedier deportations, which the White House initially had supported but left out of its proposal after complaints from immigrant advocates and some Democrats.

On Thursday, the top House and Senate Democrats pointedly left the door open to them.

“It’s not a deal-breaker,” said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. “Let them have their face-saver.

But let us have the resources to do what we have to do.” Her spokesman Drew Hammill

later clarified that any changes “must ensure due process for these children.”

In the Senate, Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said: “I’m not going to block anything. Let’s see what comes to the floor.”

But opposition arose late in the day from key Democratic senators, suggesting battles ahead before any deal could be struck.

“I can assure you that I will fight tooth and nail changes in the Trafficking Victims Protection Act,” Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy said at a hearing on the situation, referring to the law Republicans want to change.

Noting that the arriving migrants include young girls trying to escape sex violence and gangs, Leahy said: “I’m not sure Americans all really feel we should immediately send them back.”

Reid and Pelosi made their comments as House Speak-

er John Boehner, R-Ohio, and Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., both said they didn’t want to give Obama a “blank check” to deal with the crisis of tens of thousands of unaccompanied children arriving at the Texas border, many fleeing gangs and drawn by rumors they would be able to stay in the U.S. Boehner and McConnell indicated policy changes would be necessary to win their support.

“We want to make sure we actually get the right tools to help fix the problem,” McConnell said. Obama “needs to work with us to get the right policy into effect.”

Proponents of speedier deportations say an effective way to stem the tide of young immigrants crossing the border would be to send them back home right away, to show their parents that the trip north was wasted.

Prostitute in yacht case linked to 2nd death The ASSOCIATED PRESS MILTON, Ga. – Two months before police say a high-priced prostitute calmly left a Google executive dying from a heroin overdose on his yacht, the woman panicked on the phone with a 911 dispatcher as her boyfriend lay on the floor of their home in the throes of a fatal overdose.

Riopelle had been dating Alix Tichelman, 26, who is now charged with manslaughter in the November death of Google executive Forrest Hayes. She was never charged in Riopelle’s death.

NATION BRIEF Florida executes man for 1994 rape, murder of girl STARKE, Fla. – Florida has executed a man for the 1994 rape and slaying of an 11-year-old girl.

Eddie Wayne Davis was executed by lethal injection at 6:43 p.m. Thursday. It was the state’s seventh execution this year. The 45-year-old Davis was convicted in 1995 of first-degree murder, kidnapping and sexual battery in the slaying of Kimberly Waters, the daughter of a woman Davis had dated briefly.

According to court documents, Davis broke into his ex-girlfriend’s trailer seeking money for beer, found Waters sleeping and raped her. Prosecutors say he then took her to a nearby Moose Lodge, where he beat her and suffocated her with a piece of plastic.

KABUL, Afghanistan – The U.S. and its allies are growing increasingly concerned as Afghanistan shows signs of unraveling in its first democratic transfer of power from President Hamid Karzai. With Iraq wracked by insurgency, Afghanistan’s dispute over election results poses a new challenge to President Barack Obama’s effort to leave behind two secure states while ending America’s long wars.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry made a hastily arranged visit to Afghanistan on Friday to help resolve the election crisis, which is sowing chaos in a country that the U.S. has spent hundreds of billions of dollars and lost more than 2,000 lives trying to stabilize. He was to meet with the two candidates claiming victory in last month’s presidential election runoff.

“I’ve been in touch with both candidates several times as well as President (Hamid) Karzai,” Kerry said before leaving Beijing, where he attended a U.S.-China economic meeting. He called on them to “show critical statesmanship and leadership at a time when

Abdullah, a top leader of the Northern Alliance that battled the Taliban before the American-led invasion, claims the runoff was a fraud, and his supporters have spoken of establishing a “parallel government,” raising the specter of the Afghan state collapsing.

Abdullah was runner-up to Karzai in a fraud-riddled 2009 presidential vote before he pulled out of that runoff.

Chief electoral officer Zia ul-Haq Amarkhail has resigned, denying any involvement in fraud but saying he would step down for the national interest.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel speaks during a joint news conference Thursday with the Prime Minster of Moldova Iurie Leanca, as part of a meeting at the chancellery in Berlin.

Germany kicks out top U.S. official over espionage claims

By FRANK JORDANS The Associated Press BERLIN – Germany on Thursday demanded Washington’s top spy in Berlin leave the country as a new round of allegations of U.S. espionage worsened the friction between the two allies.

The immediate trigger was the emergence of two new cases of alleged American spying.

They inflamed a furor that erupted last year when it was learned that the U.S. was intercepting Internet traffic in Germany and eavesdropping on Chancellor Angela Merkel’s cellphone calls.

More broadly, the move to kick out the CIA station chief appears to reflect a Germany out of patience with what it sees as a pattern of American disrespect and interference.

“The representative of the U.S. intelligence services at the United States Embassy has been asked to leave Germany,” German government spokesman Steffen Seibert said in a statement.

“The request occurred against the backdrop of the on-

going investigation by federal prosecutors as well as the questions that were posed months ago about the activities of U.S. intelligence agencies in Germany,” he added. “The government takes the matter very seriously.”

U.S. officials described Germany’s action as extraordinary.

While agents have been expelled from time to time, usually by unfriendly powers, a former U.S. official said he couldn’t remember an instance since the end of the Cold War in which the ranking intelligence official was asked to leave a country.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to discuss intelligence issues publicly.

Germany refused to identify the CIA station chief by name.

In the United States, it is illegal to disclose the name of an undercover operative.

Shortly before Thursday’s announcement, Merkel told reporters that Germany and the United States had “very different approaches” to the role of intelligence agencies, and she insisted that any spying on allies is “a waste of energy.”

KHAN YOUNIS, Gaza Strip – The Al Haj family never heard it coming: An Israeli missile smashed into their home in the middle of the night, destroying the structure and killing eight relatives in a matter of seconds.

A survivor said all the dead were civilians.

As Israel intensified its bombardment Thursday of the Gaza Strip in an offensive against the Hamas militant group, with more than 900 targets attacked so far, it said it was doing everything possible to avoid civilian casualties in the crowded urban landscape.

The risk of more civilian deaths will remain high, especially if Israel moves in with ground forces.

More than 85 people have been killed, including dozens of civilians, and over 300 wounded since the offensive began Tuesday, Palestinian medical officials said.

Undeterred, Hamas militants have fired hundreds of rockets into Israel, including salvos Thursday at the country’s two largest cities, Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, that were intercepted by the rocket-defense system known as the Iron Dome.

President Barack Obama called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and lent his support to Israel’s efforts to defend itself from the rocket fire, but he also urged both Israel and the Palestinians to protect civilians and restore calm.

The White House said the U.S. was willing to “facilitate a cessation of hostilities,” potentially along the lines of a 2012 cease-fire that Egypt and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton helped broker.

At an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council, Secretary-General Ban Kimoon expressed deep concern about the threats to civilians in Israel and Gaza, and urged

an immediate cease-fire.

“It is unacceptable for citizens on both sides to permanently live in fear of the next aerial attack,” Ban said.

“My paramount concern is the safety and well-being of all civilians, no matter where they are.”

He condemned the “indiscriminate” rocket fire at Israel. “But I am also concerned at the many Palestinian deaths and injuries as a result of Israeli operations,” he said. “Once again, Palestinian civilians are caught between Hamas’ irresponsibility and Israel’s tough response.”

Israel’s U.N. ambassador, Ron Prosor, pulled out a cellphone during the meeting and played a recording of an air-raid siren as he described the difficult circumstances of people living within rocket range. His Palestinian counterpart, Riyad Mansour, decried the Israeli “barrage of death, destruction and terror.”

23 The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Friday, July 11, 2014

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

OUR VIEW

Nice to see new business activity in Will County The Herald-News Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs-up and thumbs-down: Thumbs up: to new business coming to our area. In Joliet, a new Popeye’s Louisiana Kitchen, as well as two Checkers hamburger restaurants, are coming soon. Also set to open in Joliet is a Potbelly Sandwich Shop, Mooyah burger restaurant and Chipotle Mexican Grill. Mariano’s is set to open next week in Shorewood. In Plainfield, the old Bin48 building will become a gastropub called Sovereign. Meijer plans to open stores at the end of the month in Homer Glen and Mokena. We may even be missing some new businesses, but the point is, people are investing in our communities. It’s a great sign to see so much economic development in Will County, and kudos to those who have been working to bring it here.

Thumbs down: to a clause in the state’s new banning ticket quotas. The law includes language that prohibits comparison among officers, and at least one local police officials fears that will hamper his department. Joliet Police Chief Brian Benton said Joliet police have evaluated performance using statistics that include tickets, arrests and field interview cards to measure how active officers are on a shift. This is just another example of Springfield tying the hands of local governments when it has plenty of its own problems it could be addressing.

Thumbs up: to the Joliet Park District for going beyond what is legally required in seeking public comment before deciding on whether to pursue a property tax increase through referendum. The park district mailed a survey to every household notifying residents that a tax hike is under consideration and seeking opinions on how money should be spent. Taxpayers have plenty of notice to get involved in this decision.

Thumbs up: to Natalie Bayci, 79, of Joliet, for her decade-long commitment to serving the poor and inspiring area youth to do likewise. Through organizing and participating in good will mission trips to Bolivia and construction trips to the Philippines through the Diocese of Joliet, Bayci has opened up new worlds to college students that would be impossible for them to experience at home. They immerse themselves in other cultures, work side by side with people that don’t speak their language, appreciate the value of a slow pace, eat unfamiliar foods and understand that – sometimes – a hug given with love has more value than money.

THE FIRST AMENDMENT

Despite the change in year, times still tough Militants have formally declared a new Islamic state consisting of parts of Syria and Iraq. Russia, loaded with nuclear weapons and resentment, is looking menacingly at Ukraine.

China is rich and restive. Israel is in upheaval over the deaths of three teens. There is no reason to believe Iran is refraining from pressing forward with nuclear-weapons research. North Korea is unpredictable and unreliable.

Things are pretty bad.

Now let’s backpedal exactly 100 years. The archduke has been assassinated, Austria-Hungary is looking to Germany for support, a blank check is on offer, and before long Russia and France will have mobilized. Things are really bad.

Maybe we should go back a century and a half. The year 1864 was one of titanic battles (Wilderness, Spotsylvania, Petersburg, Atlanta, Mobile Bay) and a vital election (the Democrats nominated the reluctant warrior, George B. McClellan).

NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE David M. Shribman Things are catastrophic.

How about only a half century?

Fifty years ago this month, Lyndon B. Johnson had just signed the landmark civil rights bill, but before long there would be riots in Harlem, three civil rights workers would be found dead in Mississippi, the Democrats would confront a rebellion at their national convention, and in a month’s time two U.S. destroyers would be attacked in the Gulf of Tonkin, or so the story would be told, precipitating increased American involvement in Vietnam.

Things are bad and getting worse.

Before the year 1964 would be out, Americans would hear two competing views of their future, one from Lyndon Johnson, en route to a 44-state landslide in the

November election, and the other from Ronald Reagan, an underemployed actor-turned-activist who would give a celebrated pre-election TV speech for Barry Goldwater, who would win less than 39 percent of the vote.

“From Johnson in the East, [Americans] heard prophecies of a coming era that looked like God’s kingdom on Earth, arriving shortly,” Jonathan Darman writes in “Landslide,” a forthcoming retrospective on the year 1964. “From Reagan in the West, they’d heard of the potential for calamity and the extinguishing of freedom, coming soon. Both visions could not stand.

Here was the beginning of a great drama.”

All of this raises questions we might contemplate on this long holiday weekend, anchored on the anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and its proclamation of American freedom:

See SHRIBMAN, page 24

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

HANDWORK EARNS TOP HONORS

Plainfield North leads with four selections; 12 to continue their careers

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com In 2012, five sophomore girls soccer players from area teams received recognition from coaches after being named to all-sectional squads by the Illinois High School Soccer Coaches Association.

This past season, that same group all capped successful high school careers by receiving the highest honor that the IHSSCA awards, being selected as an All-Stater.

Bolingbrook’s Nikia Smith, Lemont’s Kelly Fritz and Kim Jerantowski, Plainfield North’s Heather Handwork and Providence’s Kyleigh MaKim day are those Jerantowski five players and their performances this year put them in an elite class along with 56 other athletes.

Fritz and Jerantowski were both named as All-Staters for the second-straight year while Handwork, Maday and Smith all received that honor for the first time.

There was a close race between all of five these fine athletes for this year’s Herald-News Player of the Year honors. That honor will go to Plainfield North’s Handwork, who scored 30 goals and added 11 assists to earn NSCAA AllNorth Region recognition.

Not surprisingly, all five athletes are headed to Division I programs with Jerantowski and Smith going to Northwestern University, Fritz and Maday bound for the University of Illinois-Chicago and Handwork set for Marquette University.

That group of players leads this year’s Herald-News All-Area team, which features a total of 25 athletes who represent 14 teams.

Seven other seniors on this year’s team will also be continuing their careers in college: Providence’s Alyssa Dorning (Illinois Wesleyan University), Plainfield

Valley State University).

With Brooke Polonus joining Handwork, Dheel and Stevens on the squad, Plainfield North leads all teams with four selections. Coach Jane Crowe’s Tigers were ranked throughout the season not only as one of the state’s best, but also among the top squads nationally.

Lemont’s Aleksandra Mi-

hailovic also made the team to give it three honorees, the same number that went to the team the Indians beat in the sectional finals, Lincoln-Way West, which is represented Brianna Heyer, Audrey Pearson and Natalie Tannura.

Joining Bolingbrook and Providence with two selections are Lincoln-Way Central with Sara Petrone and Proc-

tor and Lockport with Jamie Hansen and Brooke Janeczek.

A total of seven other squads each had one pick.

Joining Galvan and Pruett in that club are Joliet Central’s Kathia Arredondo, Plainfield Central’s Paige Fuller, Coal City’s Brittany Jezik, Lincoln-Way East’s Jillian Kilrea and Romeoville’s Dominique Martinez.

CUBS

Chicago panel approves Wrigley Field makeover

By DON BABWIN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Wrigley Field took a step in the direction of every major league baseball park in the country Thursday when a city commission unanimously approved a major expansion of planned renovations including several more electronic signs and erecting a Jumbotron in the iconic home of the Cubs.

After more than a dozen people spoke on behalf of long suffering Cubs fans – discussing the neighborhood, the rooftop venues across the street and even birds that fly over the famous ballpark – the city’s landmarks commission agreed without any debate to a renovation project that is dramatically bigger than a $500 million plan approved last year.

Besides the Jumbotron above the ivy-covered outfield leftfield wall and another electronic sign above the right field wall that it already approved, the commission agreed to the Cubs request to add five more electronic signs, expand the bleachers, erect outfield light standards and build bullpens beneath the bleachers. Expansion of the bleachers could begin as soon as the baseball season is over, the team said.

If the city council gives final approval to the Wrigley makeover, the century-old

ballpark packed into an urban neighborhood could have a more modern look, much to the dismay of the owners of buildings across the street, who fear the signs will block the view of fans who watch the games from rooftops.

The rooftop owners all but promised a lawsuit if the Cubs go ahead with the expanded renovation.

“If it looks like it violates our contract, we’ll have to take action accordingly,” said Ryan McLaughlin, a spokesman for the rooftop owners.

But the team apparently has run out of patience.

“We cannot wait any longer,” said Crane Kenney, the Cubs president of business operations.

Cubs’ owners have said the renovations are essential to bringing in more revenue for the team, which hasn’t won a World Series since 1908, the longest losing drought in Major League Baseball.

The Cubs’ ownership Thursday did not sound like they were willing to entertain the solution put forth recently by the rooftop owners, who pay the team a chunk of their revenues under a 20-year agreement. The rooftop owners want the team to limit the number of signs to two and forget about the other five.

“We got approval for seven signs,” Dennis Culloton, a spokesman for Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts, said after

the nearly four-hour meeting.

The Ricketts family, whose scion Joe Ricketts founded the online brokerage company Ameritrade, bought the Cubs in 2009 and has been sparring with the rooftop owners since.

The commission was required to vote on the project because Wrigley is a landmark. The issue now goes to the City Council for final approval. The councilman for the neighborhood including Wrigley voiced his opposition to the commission even voting on the project, saying neither he nor the community had been given a chance to express their concerns.

“What we’re doing today is not fair,” Alderman Tom Tunney told the commission.

“You know it.”

But while other members of the council often defer to the wishes of the local representative, they also are known to do what Mayor Rahm Emanuel wants. He has touted the renovation as creating jobs and bringing revenue to the city.

The commission vote may have moved the renovation closer to reality, but one thing is clear: Nobody is touching the ivy. That issue was settled weeks ago when the Cubs retreated from a proposal to tear out several feet of ivy to accommodate the bullpens.

When the ivy climbs one of the most famous brick walls in the United States it is, in itself, a protected landmark.

NEW YORK – White Sox pitcher Chris Sale and Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo were voted by fans onto the rosters for Tuesday’s All-Star game, and Los Angeles Angels shortstop Erick Aybar will replace Kansas City outfielder Alex Gordon.

Rizzo received 8.8 million votes among the 52.5 million ballots and Sale 6.7 million, Major League Baseball said Thursday. Voting was conducted on MLB.com, team websites and Twitter.

Rizzo joined Cubs shortstop Starlin Castro on the NL roster.

“It’s good for the kids in the minor leagues to see kids in the big leagues make it,” Rizzo said. “The more AllStars you can have in your organization, the better.”

MLB did not release vot-

ing totals for players other than the winners.

MLB said Colorado first baseman Justin Morneau and Oakland All-Star third baseman Josh Donaldson have been picked to complete the participants for Monday’s Home Run Derby at Target Field in Minneapolis. Morneau spent 11 seasons with the Twins and won the 2008 derby at old Yankee Stadium.

The AL derby lineup includes Toronto’s Jose Bautista, Oakland’s Yoenis Cespedes, Baltimore’s Adam Jones and Minnesota’s Brian Dozier. Cespedes won last year’s event at New York’s Citi Field.

The NL lineup includes Colorado’s Troy Tulowitzki, Miami’s Giancarlo Stanton, the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Yasiel Puig and Cincinnati’s Todd Frazier.

MLB ROUNDUP Cubs snap streak with 12-inning win over Reds CINCINNATI – Arismendy Alcantara needed just one day to get the feel of the big leagues.

After going 0 for 4 in his major league debut on Wednesday, the Cubs prospect had four hits and scored the tying and winning runs as the Cubs snapped a six-game losing streak with a 6-4, 12-inning win over the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday.

“Today, I felt more comfortable,” Alcantara said. “I was just trying to make contact. I was happy I was able to come up and do the job.”

Alcantara and Starlin Castro both reached base with infield singles in the 12th off J.J. Hoover (1-6). Valbuena, 0 for 4 with three strikeouts, sent a ball to deep right field that Skip Schumaker couldn’t catch up with and was thrown out at the plate trying to stretch it into an inside-the-park home run. The out call stood after a

umpire crew chief request for a replay review to make sure the new rule regarding home plate collisions wasn’t violent.

Blake Parker (1-0) pitched the last two innings and the Cubs avoided a rare five-game sweep in Cincinnati.

White Sox lose in extras to Red Sox BOSTON – The White Sox’s Jose Quintana started with five perfect innings. Conor Gillaspie hit a tying two-run homer in the ninth. The White Sox held the Red Sox to three hits.

Somehow, Boston still won, 4-3, in 10 innings Thursday.

In the 10th, pinch-hitter Daniel Nava walked, Mookie Betts sacrificed him to second and Stephen Drew was walked intentionally. Then Mike Carp, singled between shortstop and third base against Ronald Belisario (3-6) to give Boston its second consecutive walkoff win over the White Sox. – The Associated Press

BEARS POSITION BREAKDOWN: TIGHT ENDS

Complement for Bennett sought Rosario has edge headed into Bourbonnais, but still an open competition

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@chicagofootball.com

This is the fourth in a series of Bears position breakdowns by the Chicago Football staff leading up to the start of training camp July 25 in Bourbonnais. For more Bears and NFL news, visit ChicagoFootball.com.

Today: Tight ends

Overview: The Bears can feel good about their decision to spend big at tight end last offseason on Martellus Bennett, whose 65 catches in 2013 rank second all-time for Bears tight ends in a single season.

He played in 90 percent of snaps, fighting through some nicks and bruises to prove to be the Bears’ answer as an every-down tight end.

The key for Bennett this year is to stay healthy and

provide more for the team as a blocker so it doesn’t need to use an extra offensive tackle as often as it did with Eben Britton.

In camp, we know what we’ll see from Bennett – big catches down the seam and plenty of highlights off the field when he meets the media – but the focus at this position, again, will be on the competition behind him.

Dante Rosario returns after playing in 17.2 percent of snaps last season, though this is his first trip to Bourbonnais: he was traded to the Bears before Week One last season. Blocking tight ends and offseason additions Matthew Mulligan, Zach Miller and Jeron Mastrud round out the group, as Fendi Onobun – a Bourbonnais favorite – was cut after minicamp.

Position battles: It’s déjà vu all over again at training camp

More online For more Bears and NFL news, visit ChicagoFootball.com.

as Marc Trestman and Aaron Kromer seek that No. 2 tight end to complement Bennett, and be a reliable insurance policy.

Last summer, Kyle Adams, Steve Maneri, Brody Eldridge, Gabe Miller and Onobun competed, and when that wasn’t enough, the Bears added veteran big man Leonard Pope.

Clearly, no one stepped up, leading to the trade for Rosario, who eventually took over for Maneri.

As we get set for Bourbonnais, Rosario has the edge, sole-

ly because of his familiarity with the offense, but it should be a very open competition.

Mulligan has fantastic size (6foot-4, 267 pounds) and plenty of game experience following seasons with the Patriots, Rams and Jets. Mastrud, who signed post-minicamp, also has imposing size for a blocker and fared well in that department for the Raiders last season.

Miller may be the best pass catcher of the group.

We can’t count out the Bears adding yet another tight end to the competition at some point. They were fortunate that Bennett didn’t miss a game last season, but will want a better plan behind him.

Contract situations (information via Sportrac): Bennett is under contract through 2016 and will get a base salary of $4.8 million this season, so there isn’t any issue with Bennett for

the time being.

Rosario, Mulligan, Mastrud and Miller are all signed to veteran minimum deals. If someone steps up and not only makes the team, but makes an impact, he could get a multiyear deal with a little guaranteed money next offseason, depending on how the franchise views the position.

Keep an eye on: Miller. No, not that Zach Miller. This one is 6-5, 236 pounds and had 41 catches in 2009-10 for the Jaguars, but has not played in a game since 2011. He made a few eye-opening catches during OTAs and minicamp, and with Onobun gone, may be the best receiving threat of the backups. A dual-threat quarterback in college, Miller has intriguing athleticism and, if he can prove himself as a blocker, could surprise and be the team’s No. 2.

Garcia’s dramatic blast saves Joliet SUBMITTED REPORTS NORMAL – As Yogi said, the game ain’t over until it’s over.

The Joliet Slammers were down to their final strike Wednesday night in the top of the ninth inning when Jose Garcia launched a three-run home run down the left-field line to wipe out a 4-2 deficit and give the Slammers a 5-4 victory over the Normal CornBelters in Frontier League action.

Russell Moldenhauer singled and Grant DeBruin walked to give Garcia his opportunity, and he delivered.

Jordan Wellander, who had relieved and gotten the final out in the eighth inning, worked a perfect bottom of the ninth and gained the victory.

The Slammers took a 1-0 lead in the second inning on a long solo homer by DeBruin.

Normal pitcher Mike Devine settled down after that, however, and retired the

next 16 Slammers.

Joliet’s Andrew Busby also was pitching well, allowing a run on a double-play ball in the third inning to tie the game at 1-1.

By then, he had allowed six hits through three innings, but had given up just that one run. He then went on a roll himself, going the next four innings without allowing another hit.

In the top of the eighth, Joliet took a 2-1 lead. Garcia walked, advanced on Seth Granger’s sacrifice and scored on Danny Hernandez’s single. In the bottom of the eighth, Sam Judah hit a threerun home run to give Normal a 4-2 lead.

Garcia’s blast seemed to provide a spark that carried over into Thursday night’s series finale. The Slammers led 6-4 in the seventh inning at press time on the strength of four home runs.

Marquis Riley and Chris-

topher Epps opened the game with back-to-back shots. The red-hot DeBruin homered in the third and later doubled, and Riley went deep for the second time, a two-run blast in the seventh.

DeBruin’s homer extended his hitting streak to 13 games and he has hit safely in 22 of his past 23 games. He also stretched his league-leading hit total to 66.

Kody McFarland started and worked the first five innings, allowing six hits and two runs. He struck out eight and walked nobody.

The Slammers open a series at Schaumburg at 6:30 p.m. Friday. A Saturday doubleheader will begin at 6 p.m. and the series concludes at 1 p.m. Sunday.

The All-Star Break follows.

Joliet will host the Dutch National Women’s Fastpitch Softball team in an exhibition game at 7 p.m. Monday at Silver Cross Field.

There’s been no indication when James plans to do so, so Miami and Cleveland waited anxiously – as did fans lining up outside James’ Akron, Ohio home, even while he was in Las Vegas.

Knicks President Phil Jackson was hoping Thursday would finally bring a decision from Anthony.

“But I expected one yesterday

and the day before yesterday,” Jackson said at the Knicks’ summer league practice in Las Vegas. “But no, we’re waiting.”

In the meantime, Kyle Lowry and Marcin Gortat signed contracts to remain with their teams, while Chandler Parsons and Gordon Hayward inked offer sheets that could land them on new ones.

T

he 2014 Dart is not the boxy compact that Chrysler offered from 1960 to 1976.

Dart now is a sleek, aerodynamic, exciting compact sedan influenced by the Alfa Romeo Giulietta, the popular Italian hatchback from corporate parent Fiat, but longer overall with a longer wheelbase, wider track and wider body.

It features a sculpted design, and with road-proven suspension is designed to be fun to drive. And according to Dodge.com, the fivepassenger Dart carries a suggested starting price of just $16,495. It can also be personalized via an impressive range of trim choices, so you can get the Dart you want, how you want it.

Depending on model, buyers can select from three four-cylinder powerplants: the 2.0-liter Tigershark

These I4s can be linked to a six-speed manual or automatic, or a six-speed Dual Dry Clutch Transmission (with the 1.4-liter turbo). EPA-estimated mileage ranges upwards from 29 mpg combined city/highway with a sixspeed manual, to as high as 41 mpg.

Combined with responsive steering, Dart offers four-wheel independent suspension and available 18-inch wheels. Segmentleading safety features and innovative components pack the Dart, with easy-to-use technology, including racetrack LED tail lamps, projector headlights, integrated dual exhaust, 8.4-inch touchscreen and 7-inch thin-film transistor (TFT) reconfigurable display.

Dart’s luggage compartment can hold 13.1 cubic feet, and consumers have their choice of nine exterior.

Buyers can add a little more heat to the already hot 2014 Dodge Dart by personalizing with several available versions. Shown is the GT with Scat Package 3.

This year the Dart GT model offers the Technology Group, Garmin Navigation Group, the Sun and Sound Group, and Hyper Black aluminum wheels.

Safety features on all Dodge Darts includes 10 airbags, anti-lock brakes, and stability control.

Former Joliet, Plainfield resident publishes book about CSI scandal

STORY BY DENISE M. BARAN-UNLAND – dunland@shawmedia.com

PHOTO PROVIDED – Former Joliet and Plainfield resident John Ferak is the author of the recently released, “Bloody Lies: A CSI Scandal in the Heartland,” as seen on the right.

STRANGER THAN FICTION

J

OLIET – The pages of “Bloody Lies: A CSI Scandal in the Heartland,” behold a gripping tale: a double murder of an All-American couple in Nebraska on Easter night in 2006, false confessions and planted blood evidence by a prominent CSI director.

Except that it’s all true.

The author is former Joliet and Plainfield resident John Ferak, the reporter who covered the investigation into the murders of Wayne and Sharmon Stock for the Omaha World-Herald. Ferak worked nine years for the newspaper, until 2012.

And he credits The Herald-News in Joliet for contributing to his passion for journalism.

At age 11, Ferak – then a

student at St. Mary Nativity School in Joliet, where his mother Cathy Ferak of Plainfield also taught – was delivering newspapers to Herald-News customers in the Gardner Street area, eventually earning the newspaper’s coveted “Carrier of the Week” title.

Around that same time, Ferak attended a career day event at The Herald-News.

His uncle, John Harmon, retired editor of The Columbus Republic in Indiana, is a former sports editor and news editor for The Herald-News.

Harmon was working for The Herald-News when Ferak attended that career day, Ferak said.

Nevertheless, the journalism bug didn’t bite Ferak until

his family, which included his father John, now a retired Bolingbrook High School history teacher, moved to Plainfield and Ferak was attending Plainfield High School.

Ferak realized the impact of journalism when he wrote an article for the school newspaper about track coach Stephen Hunt, who died in the 1990 Plainfield tornado.

Ferak wrote that story when the school was temporarily relocated to the former Joliet Catholic High School building and was inspired by the feedback he received.

“I was 17 years old and it was not a great story,” Ferak said. “But I think I captured what Mr. Hunt meant to so many students and teachers.

It was my first experience in

writing a serious news story.”

In 1993, Ferak said he was a paid intern for The Herald-News. Ferak has since worked as a reporter for the South Bend Tribune in Indiana, the Arlington Heights Daily Herald and as a metro editor at the Green Bay Press-Gazette in Wisconsin.

What made the Stock case unique, said Ferak, now an award-winning Gannett Wisconsin Media investigative team editor, was that it became the first instance in modern American history that had these three elements: a prominent CSI director caught planting crime-scene blood evidence, a double murder and a false confession.

“False confession cases, sadly, happen from time to

time,” Ferak said, “but it’s unheard of to find such a case where an extremely high-profile Midwestern CSI lab manager winds up going to prison himself.”

Ferak is set to return to the Joliet area at 2 p.m. Oct. 26 to host a presentation and book signing at the Plainfield Public Library, 15025 S. Illinois St., Plainfield. Although people who followed the Stock murders will probably enjoy Ferak’s book, Ferak believes the story, published by Kent State University Press, is sufficiently compelling for any fan of true crime books.

“They say truth is stranger than fiction,” Ferak said.

“That is certainly true here.”

“DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES” STARRING: Gary Oldman, Keri Russell, Andy Serkis

PLOT: A growing nation of geneti-

of putting too much gravity on an essentially absurd story. Eventually we have screaming monkeys on horseback firing automatic weapons amid roaring flames. If there’s a failing of “Apes,” it’s that it feels like yet another manufactured franchise. Talented people like Reeves and Serkis are brought in like HGTV fixer-uppers to restore mossy pop-culture properties. But, alas, they’re very good at it.– Asso-

ciated Press

“EARTH TO ECHO” STARRING: Teo Halm, Astro, Reese Hartwig

PLOT: After receiving a bizarre series of encrypted messages, a group of kids embark on an adventure with an alien who needs their help.

RATED: PG for some action and peril and mild language TIME: 1 hour, 29 minutes VERDICT: First-time feature director Dave Green and first-time feature screenwriter Henry Gayden have a few things in common. They created the six-episode TV series “Zombie Roadkill” a few years back, and they’re obviously fans of at least three specific films: Spielberg’s overly-praised “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,” the 1981 version of “Clash of the Titans” and the more recent, unfairly underrated “Chronicle.”

Let’s just say that one of the few mistakes Gayden and Green made in “Earth to Echo” was to fashion their stranded alien who meets up with three kids on an adventure in the shape of a little owl – a little robotic owl that looks exactly like the stupid robotic owl that was in “Titans.” Maybe if they made it a

grouse. ... The thing the filmmakers did really well was make a movie they probably wanted to see when they were kids. “Earth to Echo” is an offbeat, funny, slightly edgy science fiction offering that features unknown young actors playing 13-year-old kids who are making their own movie. Set in a residential community in Nevada that’s about to be torn down because a freeway is coming through, thereby displacing (more like peacefully evicting) all of the families, the story has our three heroes – Alex, Tuck and Munch – on the evening before they’re to move off in different directions and new lives, trying to figure out why their cellphones have gone haywire, why images of “maps” have appeared on their screens. A bike ride out to the desert has them discover a mysterious metal cylinder, the communicative owl-like thing within it, their understanding that they must help it (they name it Echo). The cool gimmick is that Tuck has decided to record it all, installing constantly running video cameras everywhere from the handlebars on his bike to the frames of his glasses. The filmmakers have lucked out by finding three newcomers who are so natural and relaxed as actors – everything they do, every word they say, feels real rather than scripted. The humor of the film, along with its moments of absolute wonder (done on a remarkably good-looking shoestring budget), keep the inevitable ending from being too bittersweet. In fact, its end notes ring perfectly. It’s certainly a film I wish I saw when I was a kid.– More Content Now

“TAMMY” STARRING: Melissa McCarthy, Susan Sarandon, Kathy Bates

PLOT: After losing her job and learning that her husband has been unfaithful, a woman hits the road with her profane, hard-drinking grandmother.

RATED: R for language including sexual references TIME: 1 hour, 36 minutes VERDICT: Meet Tammy. Boy, is she a mess. Angry, profane and aggressive, then suddenly shy and sweet.

Sometimes she’s funny, sometimes totally not. She can’t figure out what she wants to do or be, or where to go. And you thought we were talking about Tammy, the character – played by lovable Plainfield native Melissa McCarthy.

Well, sure. But really we’re talking about “Tammy” the movie, about which all of the above descriptions are also true. Especially the “mess” part. Oy. Other recent comedies have been described as elongated “Saturday Night Live” skits, but it’s especially apt here, and not just because McCarthy and Falcone, who also directs, are veteran improv performers. Exaggerated characters, some wacky side plots, a couple of famous faces sprinkled in, and you’re off.

Some of it’s good, some terrible, but you keep it all, ’cause, hey, why not? It’s a comedy sketch.

Only this is a much anticipated, heavily promoted feature-length film, and as such, it can only be deemed an unfortunate, though ambitious and intermittently enjoyable, misfire for McCarthy.–

‘Game of Thrones’ earns a leading 19 Emmy nods

By LYNN ELBER The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – Emmy voters may need to steel themselves to sort through this year’s top nominees: a macabre, medieval-style tale; a meth kingpin and his violent downfall; a bleak mystery about detectives tracking a ritual killer, and a heartbreaking saga of the AIDS epidemic’s roots.

Small-screen fare has steadily been pushed into bolder, even

brilliant territory by cable and, now, online offerings, and it’s enticing the TV academy to recognize programs that are more emotionally and dramatically complex – as well as sexually explicit and, for better or worse, much more violent.

In this widely proclaimed golden age of television-plus, the brutal fantasy saga “Game of Thrones,” based on the work of novelist George R.R. Martin, emerged Thursday as the leading nominee with 19 nods. Dra-

mas “Breaking Bad” and “True Detective” and movie “The Normal Heart” are among the other front-runners.

That’s just for starters. The self-evidently titled “American Horror Story: Coven,” along with “Fargo,” a riff on the black

comedy film of the same name, are provocative miniseries hopefuls for the awards airing on NBC in August.

The academy’s broadening embrace includes individual performers as well. They gay rights group GLAAD saluted Laverne Cox’s guest-actress nod for “Orange is the New Black” as the first for an openly transgender person.

The 66th Primetime Emmy Awards will air Aug. 25 on NBC, with emcee Seth Meyers,

the former “Saturday Night Live” player and new NBC latenight host. The ceremony, traditionally held on Sunday, was moved to avoid a conflict with NBC’s “Sunday Night Football” and with MTV’s Video Music Awards.

HBO received a leading 99 nominations, followed by CBS with 47; NBC, 46; FX Networks, 45; ABC, 37; PBS, 34; AMC, 26; Netflix, 31; Showtime, 24; Comedy Central, 21; Lifetime, 17, and Fox, 18.

cally evolved apes led by Caesar is threatened by a band of human survivors of the devastating virus unleased a decade earlier. They reach a fragile peace, but it proves short-lived as both sides are brought to the brink of war that will determine who will emerge as Earth’s dominant species.

RATED: PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi violence and action and brief strong language TIME: 2 hours, 10 minutes VERDICT: Digital characters have by now long populated our movies like unwanted house guests. Some of these CGI inventions, like Gollum in “The Lord of the Rings,” have been pleasant, even precious company.

But most have disrupted our movie worlds – and not just as monsters tearing our cities apart, but as awkward distractions to our cinematic realities. The name Jar Jar Binks will forever be followed by solemn head shaking. Never forget. But in “Dawn of the Planet of the Apes,” the tables have turned, and not just because apes now rule a world where all but 1 in 500 humans have been wiped out by a so-called simian flu virus. No, the biggest uprising in the sequel to 2011’s “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” is by those digitally created, nonhuman characters. Hail Caesar. That’s the ape played by Andy Serkis, the motion-capture maestro of creatures like Gollum and a much bigger ape, Kong. Serkis played Caesar in “Rise

of the Planet Apes,” the surprisingly good origin story of the rebooted “Apes” franchise wherein chimps, injected with a serum meant to cure human brain damage, develop great intelligence. It’s 10 years after the last film ended, and Caesar is now a weary leader and firmly-rooted family man with a wife, a teenage son (Kodi Smit-McPhee) and a new baby. Who gets credit for Caesar’s deep, troubled eyes, Serkis or the effects by Joe Letteri and Dan Lemmon? Does it matter? Looking for a dam to restore power for a colony of human survivors, a group (Jason Clarke, Keri Russell) stumbles upon the monkeys’ Muir Woods home in the Redwoods outside San Francisco. The encounter sets off panic on both sides, as the firebrands in each community – the ape, Koba, played by Toby Kebbell, and his human corollary, Gary Oldman – urge their species toward battle.

To a surprising degree, “Dawn of the Planet of the Apes” belongs to the monkeys. Given that the apes communicate in sign language and spurts of English, this may be the biggest summer movie with so many subtitles. Whereas Pierre Boulle’s original “Planet of the Apes” was satirical, director Matt Reeves (“Cloverfield”) and screenwriters Rick Jaffa, Amanda Silver and Mark Bomback have given this “Apes” the grandly gloomy “Dark Knight” treatment, complete with an exceptional score by Michael Giacchino. There’s a pervasive jealousy to the primates in “Apes”: their comfort in nature and simplicity of life. Audiences, in fact, will cheer the animals over the humans. But there’s also a question

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

One spade stopper or two, declarer?

CELEBRITY CIPHER

George Whitefield, a renowned preacher in England and the American colonies who died in 1770, said, “Press forward. Do not stop, do not linger in your journey, but strive for the mark set before you.”

In yesterday’s deal, I mentioned the Rule of Seven, which a declarer in a no-trump contract might find useful. If he has one toptrick stopper (typically the ace, but maybe the king if third hand takes the first trick with the ace), he adds together the number of cards in the suit led that are in the dummy and his hand. He subtracts the total from seven and holds up for that number of rounds.

Does that apply to this deal?

South is in three no-trump. West leads his fourth-highest spade and East puts up the queen.

Declarer starts with seven top tricks: one spade, one heart, four diamonds and one club. The other two winners can come from clubs.

But if the club finesse is losing, is South in any danger?

In yesterday’s deal, the club finesse was into the East hand.

If South had won the first trick with his spade ace, East would have won with his club king and returned a spade through South’s jack-nine, giving West four tricks in the suit for down one.

Here, though, the finesse is into the West hand. South has two spade stoppers if he takes the first trick, crosses to dummy with a diamond, and runs the club 10.

Yes, West wins that trick, but he cannot cash out the spades.

If South ducks trick one, though, East can lead his remaining spade, establishing West’s suit while West has the club king as an entry.

ADVICE Child still resents parents for skipping graduation Dear Abby: When I was a child, my parents skipped my elementary school graduation. For that matter, everyone did. My grandfather had just died, so Mom was mourning his loss. Fast-forward a few years – nobody attended my junior high graduation, either.

Granted, Mom had a couple of stitches in her nose because my brother had accidentally hit her with a golf club the week before.

Well, my younger siblings just graduated from elementary school, and my parents have again skipped the event due to their work schedules. A mix of emotions is resurfacing for me. I’m angry and frustrated. I’m 26 now, and a long time has passed since they disappointed me, but I guess I haven’t ever truly forgiven them for missing those events. After all, these are once-in-a-lifetime milestones for a child, right?

Am I justified in feeling anger toward my parents for deciding to miss not only my graduations, but

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips also those of my younger siblings?

Should I talk to them or let it go?

What can I do? – Reliving It In California Dear Reliving It: How has your relationship with your parents been otherwise? If they have always been loving and supportive in other ways, then perhaps you shouldn’t be so hard on them.

When I was young, there were high school and college graduation ceremonies with cap, gown and diploma, but none for children leaving elementary school or junior high. At most, the event might be celebrated by going out for a family dinner.

Frankly, I think that multiple graduation ceremonies – while they may make cute photo-ops – dilute the importance of the one

from high school. If you want to “do something,” rather than vent your anger at your parents, it would be more constructive if you made a point of attending your siblings’ graduations in the future.

Dear Abby: I’m hoping you can resolve a disagreement between my wife and me. She insists on placing knives in the drying rack with the sharp ends pointing up. I insist this is a safety issue and the knives should be placed pointing down (or dried immediately). My wife counters that this will dull the points and that drying with a towel will dull the blades. I know it sounds trivial, but we argue about it every day. Can you help resolve our disagreement? – Looking For Resolution Dear Looking: Please stop arguing. I think the solution would be for your wife to be the person who puts the knives away.

Diskectomy can relieve pain caused by herniated disk Dear Doctor K: I have a herniated disk that’s been bothering me for more than a year. I’ve tried exercise, medication and complementary therapies. None have helped. What are my surgical options?

Dear Reader: Let’s start with a brief anatomy lesson. The human spine consists of a column of interlocking bones called vertebrae.

They surround and protect the spinal cord. Vertebrae are stacked on top of each other. In between each pair of vertebrae is a little shock-absorbing cushion called an intervertebral disk.

Intervertebral disks – think of miniature jelly doughnuts – prevent the vertebrae from scraping against each other. A normal disk has a jelly-like center (the nucleus) and a tough outer covering.

As we age, the disk’s nucleus begins to dehydrate, harden and lose its jelly-like property. The outer shell starts to tear, thin and weaken. As the disk deteriorates, it loses its ability to absorb shocks, making the affected vertebrae more susceptible to injury.

A herniated disk – also called a “slipped” or “ruptured” disk – occurs when the inner core of the disk bulges through the outer

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff shell. The protruding disk may press on a nearby nerve root, the beginning of a nerve.

There are 31 pairs of nerves that come out of the spinal cord, one of each pair going to the right and left sides of the body. Each nerve carries fibers that send signals from the brain to muscles.

That’s how we move. If we want to walk, the brain sends signals down to the nerves connecting to the muscles of the legs.

Each nerve also carries fibers that send signals from the body to the brain – signals indicating sensations such as heat, touch or pain. Pressure on the nerve roots can cause inflammation and resulting pain in the back and leg.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) gives a much better picture of the vertebrae and the disks than simple X-rays. When I was a medical student, X-rays were all we had. That made it much harder to know if a person’s back pain was due to a herniated disk and whether surgery might be needed.

Most people with herniated disks recover within several months without surgery. Since that hasn’t been true for you, disk surgery may be needed.

A common type of disk surgery is diskectomy. During the procedure, the surgeon makes an opening in the spinal canal, through which the spinal cord passes. The surgeon removes any disk material that has fragmented and escaped into the spinal canal.

If part of the herniated disk is protruding into the spinal canal, compressing a nerve root, the surgeon will trim the bulging portion. (I’ve put an illustration showing a herniated disk repair on my website, AskDoctorK.com.)

There are many variations on this standard diskectomy, but all of the procedures are designed to relieve pressure on the spinal nerve roots.

Your surgeon can help to determine whether you need surgery and what kind of operation is best for you.

College students have a tendency to gain weight Dear Teens: If you are planning to attend college this fall, chances are good that you will gain weight during your first and second years on campus.

A study funded by the federal government found that males gained an average of 5.6 pounds, while females added 3.6 pounds. One out of six of the first-year students added 10 or more pounds during the first year of college, while 6 percent gained a whopping 15 or more pounds!

Things get worse the second year. At the end of their sophomore year, males weighed an average 9.5 pounds heavier than when they began college, while females added 9.2 pounds. And since males have a much larger body frame, the weight gained by females is surprising.

Doctors say that those students who continue to gain weight during their college years seem to have “learning patterns” of gradual weight gain that could spell trouble way beyond graduation.

Students generally overeat because of pressure to “ace” that big exam.

Knowing that the trend is to add unwanted pounds when attending college, it is important to snack on healthy foods.

Dr. Wallace: I’m 16 and earn spending money by being a conscientious babysitter. I love little children and I’ve also taken the Red Cross course for babysitters. I also charge the parents a reasonable amount for taking excellent care of their most “precious possessions.”

Last night, I babysat for a single mother.

When her two children (2 and 3) were both asleep

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace in their beds, I pulled out my books and worked on my school studies. I was doing my homework when the children’s mother came home.

When she saw me working on my math, she became irritated and told me that if I ever babysat for her again, she would prefer that I keep an eye on the children even when they are sleeping.

I was really surprised because no parent has ever told me not to do my homework after the children are asleep.

All I could say was, “Yes, ma’m,” but I will never babysit for her again.

I am sure you would approve of a sitter doing her homework when the children are asleep.

– Nameless, Brunswick, Ga. Dear Nameless: You are 100 percent correct, but the mother who wrote several years ago when a teen had the identical situation, said it even better: Dr. Wallace: I’d like to make one last comment regarding the babysitters doing homework after the children are put to bed. Parents who do not want sitters to study when all is quiet are foolish. I’ve employed babysitters who had their boyfriends come over, smoked in the house and talked on the telephone for hours. I sure wish I had a sitter who wanted to study! – Mother, McComb, Miss.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Family matters will be confusing or could cause uncertainty. Put your best effort into your work to avoid making impulsive personal changes that are likely to be costly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Prepare to take on a new challenge. Find the sports and recreation facilities in your area and sign up for a new activity. Striving to be your best will lead to both personal and professional advancement.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Take a back seat and observe what’s going on around you. Don’t be too quick to make changes prematurely. Keep an open mind and wait until you have a clear picture.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Do whatever it takes mentally and physically to improve your standing, but don’t try to buy support. Extravagance will end up costing you more than you can afford.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – A choice between money and satisfaction will need to be made. Question your motives and just what it is you want out of life.

It’s time to re-evaluate matters and make adjustments to suit your needs.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – You will be emotional today. Try not to let your feelings overflow into the workplace.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Avoid emotional blackmail. Your peers will lose interest if you insist on having everything your way. Honesty, integrity and compromise will be necessary.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – A holiday to a resort, hotel or spa will help keep your mind off your troubles. Making arrangements with someone special will be half the fun.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Spruce up your living space without being extravagant. Applying a coat of paint or moving furniture around to suit your current interests and lifestyle will make a difference in your attitude.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Treat a business or personal partner respectfully.

‘Dawn of the Planet of the Apes’ tops ‘Rise’

By ED SYMKUS More Content Now As the end credits for this follow-up to the prequel of “Planet of the Apes” were running and I was basking in the satisfaction of not only having seen a great sequel but also a great movie, I was distracted by some commentary from a couple of disgruntled critics sitting in front of me.

“There was, like, 20 minutes of unnecessary anti-gun rhetoric in this movie,” complained one. “Yeah, and why did they have to keep going on and on about the power struggles?” grumbled another.

Really? This is what these poor suckers got out of this film? Maybe next time they should just sit back and enjoy, instead of looking for some sort of deep meaning that isn’t there.

“Dawn of the Planet of the Apes” is hitting screens three years after “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” breathed fresh air into a once hot franchise that stumbled badly when Tim Burton’s sloppy reboot came out in 2001. The solid prequel went back to the source of how Earth’s apes began to take control of the planet from the humans. This sequel’s storyline picks up 10 years later, well after a “simian flu” has run from human to human and, with a survival rate of 1 in 500, has decimated the population. There are a large number of survivors who were immune to the virus, but they’re spread out and, at least in San Francisco, where this story is set, their power supply is running low.

They have plenty of guns and ammo, but not much else.

Meanwhile, the ape population is doing quite well, building up their own society in the woods around the Bay area, communicating mostly with hand signs (not to worry, there are subtitles), hunting for their food, and getting by just fine without the need of any power source, and certainly without any humans getting in the way. In fact, no

“Dawn of the Planet of the Apes,” a prequel of “Planet of the Apes,” breathes fresh air into a once hot franchise. humans have even been seen for about two years, remarks one of them.

Sorry, apes. Say hello to some humans, who are heading for the woods to fix up an abandoned dam that might return power to San Francisco. The apes are as surprised by the sight of the gun-toting humans as the humans are to find out the apes can speak ...

English!

This all turns into a study of two very different societies – one that’s quite content living off the land, and one that wants to get back to its glory days. Can they work together to achieve their goals? It would be safer to bet on something like that happening in today’s House of Representatives than in the film’s San Francisco setting.

The questions being asked here range from the apes discussing whether they should attack the humans to the humans discussing whether they should attack the apes.

But things get a lot more

complicated than that simple plot. Some quality script time is spent developing the characters of the heroes from each side: the human leader Malcom (Jason Clarke) and the ape leader Caesar (voiced and motion capture-acted by Andy Serkis). There’s also a well-structured look at the lead villains from each side: the humans’ trigger-happy Carver (Kirk Acevedo) and the apes’ scarred and angry Koba (Toby Kebbell, replacing Chris Gordon in the previous film), who is still fuming at his treatment by humans back when he was in captivity (yes, you need to see the first film to understand this character better).

The writers take the extra step in the building of parallel structures by also showing the similarities and differences between the families of Malcolm and Caesar. Nice touch there! As is the idea of humans fearing apes, and apes mistrusting humans.

That part of the story goes

even further when it starts to focus on the ideological differences between conflicted but seemingly benevolent Caesar and possibly insane Koba, and between hopeful Malcolm and suspicious politician-type Dreyfus (Gary Oldman, who is stuck with some weak dialogue and not fully fleshed-out characterization).

The film’s visuals are fantastic, from the sights of hordes of apes moving through treetops to the astounding action sequences when war in the city is presented in all of its thrilling, violent chaos. “Rise” was a very good film. “Dawn” is a better one. A still-untitled third film is scheduled for 2016.

• “Dawn of the Planet of the Apes” is written by Rick Jaffa, Amanda Silver, Mark Bomback and is directed by Matt Reeves. The film stars Andy Serkis, Jason Clarke, Keri Russell, Gary Oldman and Toby Kebbell. It is rated PG-13.

BEST BETS ± 7 a.m. NBC 5 2014 Tour de France: Stage 8 brings the riders through varied terrain as “Le Tour” winds its way through the countryside of eastern France. Breakaway artists will certainly have the advantage on an 80-mile flat stretch that opens the stage, while the climbers should come to the fore in the Vosges Mountains, where grades of 10 to 15 percent are not uncommon. The field for this year’s race includes Nairo Quintana, Alberto Contador and defending champion Chris Froome.

± 7 p.m. on LIFE Movie: Presumed Dead in Paradise: After her father’s death years ago, rebellious teenager Madison drifted away from her aloof stepmother, Patricia, moving from one boarding school to another. When Patricia suddenly reappears in her life, suggesting that the two of them vacation on a remote island where the family stayed in happier times, Madison is understandably wary, yet holds out hope for rebuilding broken family ties. Patricia, as the savvy viewer quickly will figure out, has other plans, however. Malese Jow (“The Vampire Diaries”), Olivia d’Abo and Gavin Houston star.
