Stumbling and getting back up VIEWS Kate Schott A few months ago, I used this space to share with you my quest to get healthier. I talked about eating better, being committed to working out and holding myself accountable.

I have a confession to make: I stumbled.

I was doing great, hitting the gym at least four times a week. I was counting calories and eating fruits and vegetables and fish, and cutting out the fried foods. The weight was coming off, and I was feeling better.

Then work got busy, and I didn’t leave the office until late so I stopped for fast food on my way home. Or a friend needed help on something. I was tired so just this one time, I skipped the workout (except it wasn’t just one time). Then I figured I deserved a break from the stress, so I slept in on the weekends instead of getting up to go to the gym.

At the end of the day, these were excuses. I’d argue they were legitimate some of the time.

But it was years of that mentality that got me into the situation I’ve found myself in – overweight and in danger of being diabetic.

It’s OK to take a break once in a while, or to cheat on the diet occasionally. Not every day.

Even knowing that, I kept telling myself that starting next week, I would hit the “reset” button and go to the gym and pack carrots and grapes for snacks at work. And then I wouldn’t do that, and then it was, well, at the start of next week ...

Finally, last weekend, I woke up early Saturday and headed to the YMCA for a workout. I was a little

sore but it felt good. I went Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday after work. I plan to work out this weekend. I didn’t buy any junk food when I went grocery shopping.

By some miracle, my three weeks of not exercising and being not as careful about what I ate as I should didn’t result in any weight gain. I stumbled, but eventually got back up.

I expected to have to physically climb some hills as I worked my body into shape, but this mental “hill” was much harder to overcome than any concrete I’ve ever stepped foot on.

••• We tried something new with today’s cover in the Joliet edition of The Herald-News in that we started an article there, instead of our typical main photo with a refer to our cover story, along with references along the side (the rail, in newsroom speak) to other stories we think readers might find interesting.

I’ve wanted for some time to try out a format like this. Page designers came up with this format, and we decided, for now, to use it on special occasions, like when we run a series.

We started Sunday a threeday series about the 25th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. I’d like to know what you think of it. Would you like to see an article start there more often? Or do you like our current format? I’m eager to hear from you.

Thank you for reading The Herald-News.

MINOOKA

Minooka Police Patrolman Denise Byrd holds up the Titan Body Camera on Friday. The cameras are being used by the department on a 60-90 day trial run and were developed by BatteryJack of Minooka.

Police testing out body cameras

By MIKE MALLORY mmallory@sahwmedia.com MINOOKA – The Minooka Police Department is the first Grundy County law enforcement agency to wear body cameras.

As part a 60-90 day trial run, BatteryJack, 772 Twin Rail Drive in Minooka, is supplying Minooka’s 15 uniformed officers with its Titan Body Camera. Minooka police have worn the cameras for about two weeks.

BatteryJack spent the past two years researching and developing the Titan Body Camera. Customer Development and Retention Specialist Richard Cardoza said changes already have been made based on officer feedback. The original model had a light on at all times, but officers noted it wouldn’t be ideal for ambush situations, so the light can now be turned on or off.

Spurred by national news on the topic of excessive police force, BatteryJack contacted

Minooka Chief Justin Meyer to explore testing out the cameras.

“We wanted to see if it would be a good tool for our department,” Meyer said. “Initial feedback is that it’s working well.”

Meyer worked on the department’s policy to allow footage to be used as evidence.

The camera can record up to nine hours of continuous footage with 16 GB storage. It’s only turned on when needed, so typically two or three hours of footage are recorded in a “busy” shift, Cardoza said. The camera is plugged into a USB port at the department after a shift, where it collects the footage and recharges the battery.

The functionality of the camera is based on ease of use.

Donny Sweeney of BatteryJack said law enforcement has a tough enough job already so the design intends to not impede on officers’ ability to do their jobs.

Minooka Patrolman Ken Briley said he’d like the cam-

era to have a wide lens, infrared capabilities and attach to the uniform more securely. He acknowledged it’s the wave of the future.

The company has met oneon-one with local police chiefs over the last six months, but Meyer was the first to try it out.

Cardoza said samples are being sent to Dwight police and talks are ongoing with Coal City police.

The camera is offered in several different forms of display, and more attachments are coming soon. Cardoza said BatteryJack is able to compete with the “big dogs” of the body camera industry, such as EVO and Taser, because it offers its product much cheaper. For example, when it launches its dashboard camera model soon, it will cost around $1,000. Other companies charge $3,500 to $5,000, he said.

Sweeney said Titan has sold about 250 body cameras online to everyone from construction workers to a woman in New York.

‘WE CAN’T STOP HERE’

Disability advocates: Legislation has many shortcomings, successes • ADA Continued from page 1 The law was designed to protect people with disabilities from discrimination in the areas of employment, transportation, public accommodation and governmental services.

Modeled after the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the landmark legislation was viewed as one of the most sweeping pieces of civil rights legislation in years – aimed at fighting bigotry, improving quality of life, and setting accessibility standards for people with disabilities.

But has it accomplished all of what President George H.W. Bush sought out to do when he signed it into law July 26, 1990, on the south lawn of the White House?

That depends on who you ask.

Ask Ivan Bew, a 25-year-old college student, and you’ll learn that despite the ADA, public transportation and the stigma surrounding disabilities remain key issues in his life as he edges closer to graduation.

You’ll get a different answer from someone like Pam Heavens, the executive director of the Will-Grundy Center for Independent Living, who lived through the decades leading up the law’s passage – when public universities were largely inaccessible, doors to governmental buildings weren’t wide enough to accommodate wheelchairs, sidewalks lacked wheelchair-friendly curb cuts, and the Joliet train station didn’t have an elevator.

Still, regardless of who you ask, a reoccurring theme surfaces in the ebb and flow of each conversation: “There’s much work left to do.”

‘An unprecedented shift’

Heavens, who is 59 and has cerebral palsy, credits the ADA for bringing an unprecedented shift for what was, at the time of passage, considered a segregated population.

It raised social awareness, she said, while also bringing forth concrete changes, such as improved access to government buildings and businesses, and better job training services for people seeking employment.

See ADA, page 4

What is the ADA?

The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 prohibits discrimination and ensures equal opportunity for persons with disabilities.

Employment

This section prohibits private employers, state and local governments, employment agencies and labor unions from discriminating against qualified individuals with disabilities in job application procedures, hiring, firing, advancement, compensation, job training, and other terms, conditions and privileges of employment.

Government services/ public transit

This section prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability by public entities, and protects qualified individuals with dis-

abilities from discrimination on the basis of disability in the services, programs, or activities of all state and local governments. Public transportation authorities may not discriminate against people with disabilities.

Public accommodations

This section of the act prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability in the activities of places of public accommodations – such as restaurants, movie theaters, schools, day care facilities, and doctor’s offices – and requires newly constructed or altered places of public

accommodation and commercial facilities to comply with the ADA standards.

Telecommunications

Title IV addresses telephone and television access for people with hearing and speech disabilities. It requires telephone companies to offer telecommunications relay services, which enables callers with hearing and speech disabilities and callers who use voice telephones to communicate with each other through a third party communications assistant.

But it was a long, uphill battle trying to get the ADA passed, Heavens said. The movement began years before its passage, but the fight intensified in the months and days leading up to the historical vote.

She described how protesters descended upon the U.S. Capitol in March 1990, shedding wheelchairs and crutches before crawling up the front steps to urge Congress to act on the legislation.

Among the photos hanging on the wall at the Will-Grundy Center for Independent Living is a black-and-white photo of two women – Lois Curtis and Elaine Wilson – standing on the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court in June 1999.

Heavens said Curtis and Wilson, who had mental illness and developmental disabilities, sued the state of Georgia under the ADA in 1999, after having spent time in a mental institution long after their doctors said they could have entered into a community-based treatment program.

In a ruling handed down in June 1999, it was decided that the ADA prohibits “unjustified segregation” of individuals with disabilities.

“They are our heroines,” Heavens said. “It took a lot of courage for them to go all the way to the Supreme Court.”

For every accomplishment that followed the ADA’s passage in 1990, there’s yet another challenge awaiting advocates pushing for more accessibility, she said.

“We can’t stop here,” she said.

After the ADA passed, Heavens recalls having battled with her previous condo building developer for some time to get certain housing accessibility accommodations as required by law.

‘The fear of the unknown’

The ADA addresses employment by prohibiting any and all type of employers from discriminating against qualified individuals with disabilities in job application procedures, hiring, firing, promotions, compensation, and job training, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.

That’s about twice the 5.9 percent for those with no disability, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

To help bridge that gap, Trinity Services in New Lenox expanded its employment support services in December 2014 by opening The Branch, a center designed to help high school graduates with intellectual and other disabilities develop life skills and find employment, said Kevin Schaefer, associate director of adult learning.

Even with organizations like Trinity Services stepping up to help people with disabilities find employment, Schaefer said there are limited job opportunities in Will County due to the lack of readily available public transportation.

Schaefer said the center has several “solid relationships” with businesses willing to hire individuals with disabilities – Jewel-Osco, Harrah’s Casino,

Meijers and Walgreens, to name a few. The greatest challenge, perhaps, in bringing down unemployment rates is the stigma attached to people with disabilities and employers’ own fears.

“It’s the fear. It’s the fear of the unknown,” Schaefer said.

“It’s the fear of liability. What if the person gets hurt? What if others get hurt? It’s the idea of possibly having to afford more attention to that person.”

Dispelling those fears is where service providers like Trinity Services come in, he said, adding that Trinity often will communicate the person’s skills, along with work and volunteer history, to potential employers.

Schaefer said he hopes more employers consider hiring people with disabilities.

“It adds diversity within the workplace. There are employers that have customers with disabilities so going into a setting where they can see other people who have a disability who are working is equally important,” Schaefer said.

“It’s reflective of the community. ... And people with disabilities, they want to be independent,” he said. “They want to be self-sufficient and provide for themselves.”

And that’s how it’s been since she returned home nearly two years ago, having graduated in 2013 from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a master’s degree in social work.

Hoyer said she feels she is qualified for many of the jobs she’s applied for. During her time in Urbana-Champaign, she served as a mentor for incoming students with disabilities and successfully completed a seven-month internship at an Urbana hospital working as a inpatient rehabilitation social work intern.

She returned home to Plainfield with the goal of finding work in her career field. A mix of factors – including poor access to public transportation, seemingly reluctant employers, and a need for a personal care assistant – has made it difficult for her to find work, she said.

Reading through job descriptions can be discouraging. Hoyer will read through an application and see that the job fits perfectly with her skill set – but then there are questions like: Do you have a valid driver’s license? Reliable transportation?

Can you lift 10 pounds?

And she has to answer no.

“These little things, they just add up. It’s frustrating,” Hoyer said. “I’m kind of getting the feeling these days that the de‘Can you lift 10 pounds?’

Summer weather too cool for pools Attendance down, staffing unpredictable

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com June was a rough summer month for outdoor community pools in Will and Grundy counties.

The mean temperature was 67 degrees Fahrenheit in the Chicago area, compared with 71 degrees last year, according to National Weather Service data.

Only one day reached above 90 degrees and it also rained 7.12 inches, more than twice the normal value for precipitation.

“It was hard to predict dayto-day,” said Jim Hitchcock, manager of the Morris City Pool. “One day predictions say one to two inches of rain and we’re getting eight to 10 inches.”

Lincoln-Way slates special meeting on school closure

Travel Fee-Free!

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com FRANKFORT – A special Lincoln-Way board meeting will take place Saturday to allow more public input on the school district’s school closure options.

Lincoln-Way officials will conduct the meeting from noon to 2 p.m. at the Lincoln-Way East High School Fine Arts Center, 201 Colorado Ave., Frankfort, according to a news release.

Board members only will answer questions submitted to the district by Wednesday at 5 p.m.

The questions can be sent to Abby Milone, Lincoln-Way community relations coordinator, at her email address: amilone@lw210.org. The submitted questions will be answered first and a public comment session will follow. School officials say follow-up questions will not be part of the public comment session.

Lincoln-Way board members decided at a July 16 meeting to reduce a budget deficit by closing a school. School officials unveiled at the meeting several options for the potential closure of one of the district’s four high schools. School officials previously weighed making educational cuts or proposing a tax increase referendum.

State officials are requiring the school district to submit a deficit reduction plan for the next several years by September. The school district

Lincoln-Way Superintendent Scott Tingley has said the school district is ready to submit a deficit reduction plan from a “numbers standpoint.” But he wants to notify school staff by early 2016 which school will close and the impact on non-renewals of contracts and reduction in force.

He said the school board is considering closure options that broadly focus on either keeping the middle schools together or redrawing the boundary lines for where the high schools draw students.

unmarked Joliet police car

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com

JOLIET – A 54-year-old woman suffered broken bones Wednesday night after she was hit by an unmarked police car as she crossed Plainfield Road.

Police said the woman was using her cellphone while crossing the street.

The accident occurred at the intersection of Plainfield Road and Clara Avenue, Deputy Police Chief Ed Gregory said in a voice mail response to the Herald-News Friday afternoon.

Gregory said an on-duty Joliet police officer was traveling westbound on Plainfield Road on the left lane Wednesday at 11:26 p.m. when he suddenly saw the woman crossing Plainfield Road east from Clara Avenue.

“He said he, at the last minute, saw her,” Gregory said.

“Unfortunately there was another car on the right lane and

he was unable to swerve to avoid hitting her. And he ended up striking the victim [on her right side].”

Gregory, who didn’t identify the woman, said the officer reported that the woman was on her cellphone while crossing Plainfield Road.

The woman was awake and conscious at the scene, Gregory said, and able to answer questions. She was transported to Presence St. Joseph Medical Center, but was transferred to Advocate Christ Medical Center for further treatment due to internal damage.

The woman’s condition was unknown as of Friday evening.

Gregory said witnesses corroborated the officer’s account.

An investigation is pending a toxicology screening of the woman.

Gregory and Chief Brian Benton could not immediately be reached for additional comment Friday.

New rules clarify, clean up Illinois concealed-carry law

13 LOCAL NEWS | The Herald-News

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, July 26, 2015

Changes to Illinois’ fledgling concealed-carry law that clarify some of its ambiguities took effect with Gov. Bruce Rauner’s signature July 10.

Senate Bill 836, which took effect earlier this month, addresses a number of issues raised by gun-rights groups, such as privacy, mental illness and dealings with law enforcement. It was the first set of changes made to the law since its approval in June 2013.

Illinois’ concealed-carry law, which took effect in 2014, is among the more stringent in the nation. In-state applicants have to take a 16-hour course – or eight hours for honorably discharged veterans – and pay a $150 fee to the Illinois State Police. It forbids carrying in a number of locations, mandates increased mental health reporting requirements and allows local law enforcement to object to granting licenses to people considered a danger to themselves or others.

“Checking concealed-carry applications is done by the firearms section in Springfield,” said State Police Capt. Cindy Benson, who oversees the investigative zone that includes Will and Grundy counties. “But local law enforcement can use a website to note any concerns they have from previous contacts with an individual when their application is posted.”

The most significant changes deal with the process of applying for a concealed-carry permit. The new law clarifies that the privacy waiver that applicants have to submit applies only to personal records, such as criminal and psychiatric history, that have direct bearing on the applicants’ qualification to carry a concealed handgun. It also provides a mechanism by which someone with a “mild” developmental disability who

TOP: A “No Guns Allowed” sign is posted on the front door of Longshots Sports Bar and Grill in Joliet. otherwise meets the legal requirements can appeal a denial.

Another change allows a concealed-carry holder to meet the legal obligation of notifying a police officer during an investigative stop by showing his or her permit.

Also, police and other first responders now have the ability to ask anyone lawfully carrying a firearm to secure it for the duration of the contact.

While state law still requires having a state-issued firearm owner’s identification card to legally possess or buy weapons and ammunition, people with concealed-carry permits no longer have to physically possess their FOID card and can present their permit to make purchases.

Senate Bill 836 was some-

thing of a cleanup bill to patch issues that have been discovered since lawmakers hastily cobbled together a concealed-carry law after a federal court in late 2012 struck down Illinois’ total ban on concealed carry. Illinois was the last state in the union to deny citizens some form of legally carrying concealed handguns in public.

Although lawmakers had months to put together a bill, they only managed to approve it in the final hours of session, mostly because of the ideological divide over gun rights between Chicago and downstate lawmakers in the General Assembly. Lawmakers later had to meet in special session to override a last-minute amendatory veto by then-Gov. Pat Quinn, on the final day before

the court’s invalidation of the state ban was to take effect.

While the changes of Senate Bill 836 cleared the House and Senate by comfortable margins, that ideological divide means that more significant legislation either loosening or tightening concealed-carry restrictions is unlikely to get the needed votes to pass.

Slightly more than 120,000 people have Illinois concealed-carry permits as of the end of June, and the total number of FOID card holders stands at 1.89 million. The concealed-carry numbers are well below the 300,000 that the state police had estimated.

Twenty-three other states honor Illinois’ concealed-carry permit. Illinois does not recognize out-of-state permits – peo-

ple in other states can get an Illinois concealed-carry permit at a cost of $300, along with completing the course and passing the background check.

Illinois, like most states, is a “shall-issue” state, meaning permits must be approved if the applicant meets all the legal criteria. Eight states are “may-issue,” meaning that authorities can still deny permits to law-abiding citizens, in most cases requiring them to demonstrate a legitimate need to carry. Several states, such as Alaska, Arizona, Vermont and Maine, do not require any permit for citizens to carry a handgun either concealed or openly.

Man arrested for allegedly destroying dog with firecracker

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A Joliet man surrendered to police on Friday after being charged with destroying a dog using fireworks earlier this month.

Nicholas A. Garcia, 24, of the 100 block of South Midland Avenue, turned himself in to Joliet police shortly before 1 p.m. Friday, according to Deputy Chief Ed Gregory. Garcia was wanted on a $50,000 warrant for one felony count of

criminal damage to property and two misdemeanor counts.

At 10:50 a.m. July 7, Garcia and another man were allegedly lighting fireworks in the alley of the 200 block of East Jackson Street.

“Garcia was lighting quarter-sticks and throwing them into the neighbor’s yard. The neighbor’s dog picked one up and it blew off the animal’s jaw,” Gregory said. The pit bull’s injuries resulted in it being put down, according to police reports.

Ed Gregory Joliet Deputy Chief

Police said the incident will be reviewed by the Will County State’s Attorney’s office to see if animal cruelty charges can be filed.

According to Will County Jail records, Garcia was arrested by sheriff’s police in April 2014 on charges of delivery of marijuana.

JOLIET – Local and statewide jobless rates continued to fall in June compared to a year ago, according to the latest report from the Illinois Department of Employment Security.

In Joliet, the June unemployment rate dropped to 8 percent from 9.2 percent a year ago. In Will County, the unemployment rate dropped from 7.6 percent to 6.4 percent over that same time period. In Grundy County, the June unemployment rate dropped to 7.1 percent from 8.7 percent a year ago.

Despite the drop, the region’s unemployment rates remain higher than Illinois’ 5.9 percent, Cook County’s 6.5 percent, and the national 5.5 percent unemployment rate.

John Greuling, president and CEO with the Will County Center for Economic Development, said while the region has seen positive gains in job growth and new businesses in the last couple of years, those numbers do concern him.

“I think the most simplistic answer is [the area’s] continued loss of manufacturing jobs,” Greuling said. “And I

don’t think the building trades have really recovered as fast as we’d like to see. During the last decade, we’ve had such a heavy reliance on new residential construction. We’re still so far behind where we were 10 years ago. It’s going to take some time for those jobs to come back.”

Nancy Norton Ammer, CEO with the Grundy Economic Development Council, said while those aren’t the greatest numbers, the county has many job-creating projects in the pipeline.

“We never want to be higher than the state average,” Norton Ammer said. “Does it concern me? Yes. But Grundy has a lot of projects on the books or under construction right now.

And that [job] impact may not be seen for a while.”

Norton Ammer pointed to Airgas, one of the nation’s largest producers of atmospheric gases, that’s in its second of a two-year construction project in Minooka. The project is expected to create more than 50 jobs.

Greuling did note companies in the midst or slated for groundbreaking, including IKEA and Saddle Creek Logistics in Joliet.

Mays warned that the news of lower employment rates isn’t necessarily positive.

“The drop in the number of unemployed Illinois residents since the beginning of this year is not entirely attributable to people finding jobs, rather to people leaving Illinois’ workforce altogether,” Mays said. “This factor must be considered when highlighting lower unemployment numbers.”

More Evergreen Terrace details now emerging Joliet City Council meets Monday

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The city of Joliet would likely be forced to pay $7 million in additional court costs if it decides not to buy Evergreen Terrace, City Manager Jim Hock said Friday.

And there could be additional court-imposed costs, Hock said.

As the City Council prepares for a special meeting at 6 p.m. Monday on the Evergreen Terrace question, it is still getting information needed to decide whether to buy or not to buy the low-income housing complex over which Joliet won eminent domain after a 10-year legal battle with the owners.

Since the court victory, the city has done some of its first serious numbers-crunching on the potential costs of ownership at the insistence of new Mayor Bob O’Dekirk.

City officials are not clear yet on what it would cost to own, manage and redevelop Evergreen Terrace. But proposals submitted so far from consultant Holsten Real Estate Development and Management Corp. have indicated it could take as much as $70 million in city funds.

Holsten will be at the meeting to explain four potential ownership plans it has developed, including one to leave Evergreen Terrace as is.

Just how murky the outlook has been until now was indicated at a council meeting last week when Hock was asked what would happen if the city did not buy Evergreen Terrace after the lengthy and expensive court fight.

“I don’t know,” Hock answered.

Hock said Friday he did not want to give a wrong answer before consulting with lawyers. Since the Tuesday meeting, he said, he has been told there would be costs for walk-

“I’ll remain open-minded.

We’ve got to see our way out of this. But I don’t know if we’ve seen the right proposal yet.”

“It would be considered abandonment and would cost $7 million in legal fees, and there could be more,” Hock said.

The legal fees would be what Evergreen Terrace owners have paid to try to fight off the city’s takeover effort in court.

If there are more costs, they could come if the court decides to impose penalties on Joliet to cover other costs in the legal battle.

If the city moves ahead with the acquisition, Joliet faces a Sept. 1 deadline to pay the $15 million price set by a federal jury. Hock has told the council that the city would get the $15 million out of its reserve funds.

City officials, however, are looking to Holsten to show them a way to take ownership of Evergreen Terrace with a plan that Joliet can afford.

Holsten previously developed two plans showing the city paying between $11 million and $70 million depending on how much redevelopment would be done at the 356-unit apartment complex. The company last week submitted two more plans, which indicate a net income off the property but do not appear to account for all the costs.

“I’ll remain open-minded,” O’Dekirk said when asked what he thought about the latest plans. “We’ve got to see our way out of this. But I don’t know if we’ve seen the right proposal yet.”

Village of Shorewood hosts annual Cardboard Regatta SHOREWOOD – Preston Simpson didn’t make it halfway before his cardboard boat capsized.

That didn’t stop the 10-yearold boy from having a great time at the annual Village of Shorewood Cardboard Regatta.

“My favorite part was getting wet,” Simpson said.

“Maybe I’ll have another person to help me paddle and keep it balanced,” he added of his future plans to compete again next year.

The regatta, which was held at Shorewood Towne Center, had 19 boat entries with approximately 30 competitors.

“This is what we envisioned when we started it three years ago.”

Denise Schmidt Village of Shorewood parks director “This is what we envisioned when we started it three years ago,” said Denise Schmidt, village of Shorewood parks director.

Participants in the race were allowed to use only cardboard and duct tape to build their boats. Decorations were allowed only if they did not increase the seaworthiness of the vessel.

BRENDA FINDLEY Brenda Findley, age 73, of Elwood, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on Thursday, July 23, 2015, at Joliet Area Community Hospice Home.

She is survived by her loving son, Jeff (Christine) Findley; her dear grandson, Justin Findley; and her brother, Phil Sylvester, all of Elwood.

Preceded in death by her parents, Russ and Wilma (nee Nixon) Sylvester; her infant brother, Jimmy; and her long time companion, Ralph Bush, Jr. Brenda attended Elwood Grade School and Joliet Township High School. She was employed by the Boston Store, Uniroyal, Joliet Army Ammunition Plant (along with many others in her family), and after the plant closed, she dispatched limos and tended bar at Marta’s and Bill’s Inn. Later, Brenda was employed

by Elwood School and First Student as a bus driver and helped out at Glasscock Farms. When she wasn’t working away from home, Brenda could be found in the barn with her many loved animals. She fostered and adopted many unwanted and forgotten dogs, cats, birds, ponies, and a deer. Brenda was an animal lover and an animal patriot, for those that knew her and loved her, her spirit and compassion for those defenseless or homeless pets came as no surprise.

The family would like to extend a

special thank you to St. Joe’s ICU, the Joliet Area Community Hospice Home staff, and the Elwood Fire Department.

Funeral service for Brenda will be 12:00p.m., Wednesday, July 29, 2015, at Forsythe Funeral Home with Pastor Carrie Capral officiating.

LONDON – Scholar and priest Owen Chadwick, whose works explored the history of Christianity over two millennia, has died at the age of 99.

Chadwick’s family said in a death notice in the Telegraph newspaper that he died peacefully at home in Cambridge, southern England, on July 17.

Chadwick studied at Cambridge – where he also played rugby for the university – and spent much of his career in the academic town. He was master of Selwyn College between

1956 and 1983 and university vice-chancellor from 1969 to 1971.

Chadwick was ordained as an Anglican priest in 1941 after experiencing a religious awakening partly inspired by imprisoned anti-Nazi German cleric Martin Niemoller.

He went on to hold professorships in both ecclesiastical and modern history, a relatively unusual feat.

Chadwick’s first book, “John Cassian: A Study in Primitive Monasticism,” looked at the early centuries of Christianity, but much of his

Bland funeral draws mourners, supporters to Lisle church

LISLE – The upbeat music that played Saturday morning at the DuPage African Methodist Episcopal Church in Lisle was in stark contrast to the somber faces of mourners entering the building.

Hundreds of mourners, well-wishers and supporters waited in line and packed the church July 25 to honor the memory of Sandra “Sandy” Bland, a Naperville native whose arrest and death in a Texas jail cell drew national attention.

The Rev. Theresa Dear said there was much to be celebrated about Bland’s life – including her stand against the police officer who arrested her.

“We celebrate that she found her voice and she found her purpose in social justice,” Dear said.

“We celebrate the fact that she walked and lived in her truth. We celebrate that Sandy Bland was ... a young lady who refused to be subdued and silenced.”

Bland, 28, was found dead July 13 in a Texas jail cell three days after she was arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer during a routine traffic stop July 10, according to news releases from the Waller County Sheriff’s Office and Texas Department of Public Safety.

Bland’s death was ruled a suicide and remains under investigation.

Cupich says Chicago Archdiocese will act on climate change

CHICAGO – Chicago’s Catholic archdiocese is the nation’s first to monitor its buildings’ power and water usage and greenhouse gas emissions.

Archbishop Blase Cupich joined U.S. Environmental Protection Agency officials Friday to mark the church’s stewardship initia-

Nathan Lurz – nlurz@shawmedia.com

Rev. Marshall Hatch of the civil rights group National Action Network spoke to the press Saturday before the wake and funeral of Sandra Bland at the DuPage African Methodist Episcopal Church. He called for a thorough investigation into the 28-year-old Naperville woman’s death in a Texas jail cell, which is currently classified as a suicide.

tive, an answer to Pope Francis’ entreaty to preserve the earth.

Archdiocese officials plan to benchmark each of the 2,700 buildings – churches, schools, offices and multiple-family housing.

They will track energy consumption and consider each building’s structure using the EPA’s Energy Star Portfolio Manager to rank them from 1 to 100.

Cupich said the church is committed to following the pope’s encyclical, which took on climate change and environmental sustainability.

2 boys injured in tubing accident on Fox River

CARY – A boating accident on the Fox River in northern Illinois sent two boys flying off a towed inflatable tube and into another

boat.

The two 12-year-old boys were hospitalized, one with minor injuries and the other with a possible broken leg. A woman in the second boat was also hospitalized.

McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Aimee Knop said the accident happened Friday in a narrow section of the river near the northwest Chicago suburb of Cary.

She says the boat towing the tube made a U-turn that sent the inflatable colliding into a second boat.

Knop says the boys hit the boat’s canopy and landed inside the vessel.

Authorities do not believe alcohol or drugs played a role in the crash. The Illinois Department of Natural Resources is investigating.

Man waving gun convicted in Illinois road rage incident

URBANA – A Champaign County jury took less than 15 minutes to convict a Kentucky man of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon in a road-rage incident.

Jermi Stevens faces as much as three years in prison when he is sentenced Sept. 14 for waving a gun at a truck driver who honked at him on a freeway near Urbana.

The Champaign News-Gazette reported the jury convicted the Winchester, Kentucky, man Friday.

Trucker Steven Johnson of Kendall, Wisconsin, testified that on the evening of Jan. 9 he was westbound on Interstate 74 when the driver of a BMW cut him off as he tried to pass anoth-

er truck. Johnson says when he blew his horn at the driver, the 30-year-old Stevens reached to his right and held up a gun.

Illinois lawmakers seek federal flood relief for farmers

CHICAGO – Members of Illinois’ congressional delegation are asking President Barack Obama to approve federal disaster relief for farmers hit by severe flooding.

In a letter Friday, lawmakers asked Obama to issue a disaster declaration from the U.S. Department of Agriculture for counties that have seen heavy rainfall. The declaration would allow farmers to get low-interest emergency loans.

Gov. Bruce Rauner sent a similar request on Tuesday.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS More bickering between Clinton team, House panel

WASHINGTON – The bickering has flared once more between Hillary Rodham Clinton’s team and the Republican-led House committee investigating the Benghazi attacks, this time over negotiations for the former secretary of state’s possible testimony.

A spokesman for the Democrat’s presidential campaign, Nick Merrill, said Saturday she would testify in a public session Oct. 22 before lawmakers examining the deaths of four Americans in the 2012 attacks in Libya. Not so fast, the committee said.

Committee spokesman Jamal Ware said in an interview that the committee and Clinton’s lawyer were “still in negotiation” and nothing has been finalized, including the date of an appearance and the terms under which she would testify.

Planned Parenthood videos to be reviewed

SACRAMENTO, Calif. – California Attorney General Kamala Harris said Friday that she plans to review two undercover videos released by anti-abortion activists aimed at discrediting Planned Parenthood’s procedures for providing fetal tissue to researchers, to see if any laws were broken.

Harris announced the move in a letter to four Democratic members of Congress who had requested an investigation, saying she’ll use her office’s authority to regulate charity organizations

to see if the organization that made the videos violated registration or reporting requirements, or broke any other rules. Harris, a Democrat, plans to run for the U.S. Senate in 2016.

“We will carefully review the allegations raised in your letter to determine whether there were any violations of California law,” Harris said in the letter to four members of the U.S. House of Representatives.

She said her office will look into “allegations that individuals impersonated corporate officials from a fake biologics company, resulting in the release of secretly filmed videos of Planned Parenthood physicians without their consent.”

Shell icebreaker arrives in Oregon for repairs

PORTLAND, Ore. – Authorities say the Fennica, a vessel that Royal Dutch Shell PLC plans to use in its Arctic offshore drilling project, has arrived in Oregon for repairs.

Portland Police officials said the 380-foot icebreaker arrived about 3 a.m at a Swan Island dry dock Saturday. It is a key part of Shell’s exploration and spill response plan off Alaska’s northwest coast – it protects Shell’s fleet from ice and carries equipment that can stop gushing oil.

The Fennica was damaged earlier this month in the Aleutian Islands when it struck an underwater obstruction, tearing a gash in its hull.

Mourners Christina Walls (left) embraces Diana Lennon Friday during a candle light vigil to honor the victims of Thursday night’s shooting at The Grand 16 theater during a vigil in Lafayette, La. John Russell Houser stood up about 20 minutes into Thursday night’s showing of “Trainwreck” and fired on the audience with a semi-automatic handgun.

Movie theater shooter’s mental problems didn’t stop gun buy

By RAY HENRY, JAY REEVES and REBECCA SANTANA The Associated Press LAFAYETTE, La. – John Russell Houser was deeply troubled long before he shot 11 people in a movie theater in Louisiana, but decades of mental problems didn’t keep him from buying the handgun he used.

John Russell D e s p i t e Houser obvious and public signs of mental illness – most importantly, a Georgia judge’s order committing him to mental health treatment against his will as a danger to himself and others in 2008 – Houser was able to walk into an Alabama pawn shop six years later and buy a .40-caliber handgun.

It was the same weapon Houser used to kill two people and wound nine others before killing himself at a Thursday showing of

“Trainwreck.” Three people remained hospitalized Saturday.

Court records reviewed by The Associated Press strongly suggest Houser should have been reported to the state and federal databases used to keep people with serious mental illnesses from buying firearms, legal experts said.

“It sure does seem like something failed,” said Judge Susan Tate, who presides over a probate court in Athens, Georgia, and has studied issues relating to weapons and the mentally ill. “I have no idea how he was able to get a firearm.”

Houser never should have been able to buy a gun, said Sheriff Heath Taylor in Russell County, Alabama, whose office denied him a concealed weapons permit in 2006 based on arson and domestic violence allegations, even though the victims declined to pursue charges.

Houser racked up plenty of complaints, but no evidence

has surfaced of any criminal conviction that would have kept him from passing the background check required for many gun purchases. Federal law generally does prohibit the purchase or possession of a firearm by anyone who has ever been involuntarily committed for mental health treatment.

That’s what happened to Houser in 2008 after his family accused him of threatening behavior, warning authorities that he had a history of bipolar disorder and was making ominous statements. His wife removed his guns and together, the family persuaded a judge to issue a protective order keeping him away once he left the hospital.

At that point, court officials should have reported Houser’s involuntary mental commitment to the Georgia database that feeds the FBI’s background check system, which provides for a delay of up to three days when records suggest a buyer may be ineligible.

a maximum sentence of life in prison or life in prison without parole if he’s convicted of first degree murder, Kunzweiler said. While the death penalty is legal in Oklahoma, the U.S. Supreme Court in 2005 banned the execution of anyone under the age of 18 at the time a crime was committed.

The brothers are accused of fatally stabbing their parents, two brothers and a sister.

The dead are parents David Bever, 52, and April Bever, 44, and siblings Daniel Bever, 12,

Christopher Bever, 7, and Victoria Bever, 5.

An unidentified 13-year-old sister was in serious but stable condition in a hospital and an unnamed 2-year-old sister wasn’t harmed and was placed in state custody.

With the siblings jailed, detectives continued to search for a motive, scouring social media sites believed to belong to Robert Bever in hopes of finding clues. Cpl. Leon Calhoun, a spokesman for the department, said both siblings were cooper-

ating with investigators.

Calhoun said the grisly scene was difficult to cope with for the investigators, who are accustomed to working only one or two homicides a year in the low-crime enclave.

“Most of the detectives are parents, and seeing the bodies of a 5-year-old, a 7-year-old, and 12-year-old, they are seeing the brutality and gruesomeness of the crime scene,” Calhoun said. “If it doesn’t take an emotional toll on you, you aren’t human.”

New hunt for oil in Florida raises environmental concerns

By JASON DEAREN and JENNIFER KAY The Associated Press MIAMI – Renewed hunts for oil in sensitive Florida ecosystems have environmental groups raising questions about the state’s regulation of the oil and gas industry.

A Miami company, Kanter Real Estate LLC, has submitted a permit application to drill an exploratory oil well on the eastern edge of the Everglades.

Meanwhile, federal approval is pending for a seismic survey meant to locate new areas for drilling in the Big Cypress National Preserve, a freshwater swamp whose health is vital to the neighboring Everglades and to native wildlife, including the endangered Florida panther.

The state recently issued a wetlands activity permit to Fort Worth, Texas-based Burnett Oil Co. Inc. for the survey that would cover 110 square miles within the preserve. Florida and the National Park Service are requiring a number of steps to ensure minimal harm to wildlife and the environment, but the proposal worries critics who have complained that lax oversight of previous drilling operations left ecologically sensitive areas vulnerable to contamination.

From 2012 to 2014, Florida issued three environmental violations for oil and gas operations in the state, according to violations data analyzed by The Associated Press.

The three violations occurred in 2014 after Collier County officials raised con-

cerns about another Texas oil company’s use of a fracking-like oil recovery practice at a well near panther habitat.

The Department of Environmental Protection – the state’s oil and gas regulator – say the number doesn’t show lax law enforcement, but rather that Florida’s strict inspections keep well operators in compliance.

“During the 2014 calendar year, DEP’s inspectors conducted 2,472 inspections on the 160 active wells in the state. Due to the frequency of these inspections, potential problems are identified and remedied before a violation occurs or a compliance action is required,” said DEP spokeswoman Lauren Engel said in a statement.

Environmental groups argue that Florida’s regulations currently only cover conventional drilling methods, not the “acid stimulation” that prompted last year’s violations or other advanced extraction techniques.

“We’ve learned that Florida’s oil and gas laws are extremely antiquated and rudimentary and don’t address new techniques such as fracking,” said Jennifer Hecker, director of natural resource policy for the Conservancy of Southwest Florida.

Drilling has been a part of the Big Cypress since before it became a national preserve in 1974. The first wells were dug in the 1940s, and drilling continues to this day, as new technologies may improve the efficiency of extracting oil from deposits running underground from Fort Myers to Miami.

“We’ve learned that Florida’s oil and gas laws are extremely antiquated and rudimentary and don’t address new techniques such as fracking.”

The Burnett survey would be scheduled for Florida’s winter dry season and produce vibrations created by plates attached to thumper trucks driving across a grid.

The state has gone on record opposing some methods of seismic testing, but it has not objected to the Burnett project.

DEP sent a letter to the Obama administration opposing new rules allowing seismic surveys for oil and gas off the state’s Atlantic coast because not enough was known about the surveys’ effects on marine life. The seismic survey in the Big Cypress, however, has to comply with Florida laws, said Engel.

“With onshore seismic, we have regulatory authority through this permitting program,” she said.

Burnett says it’s prepared to address concerns about the survey’s environmental impact. The wetlands activity permit issued by DEP requires the company to restore “using hand tools” any habitat damaged by the survey vehicles, and it encourages crews to remove any invasive plant spe-

The survey trucks’ wide, balloon tires will be less damaging than off-road vehicle tires, said Burnett spokesman Ryan Duffy.

The survey would cover an area between active well fields in the eastern and northwest-

ern parts of the preserve, far from recreational areas. In addition to the state permit, the park service could impose additional stipulations on Burnett to mitigate any environmental damage, said Ron Clark, the preserve’s chief resource manager.

TULSA, Okla. – An Oklahoma 16-year-old will be charged as an adult alongside his older brother in the stabbing deaths of his parents and three siblings at a suburban Tulsa home, authorities said Saturday.

The suspect will face the same counts as his 18-yearold brother, Robert Bever, who is accused in a booking document of five counts of

first-degree murder and a count of aggravated assault in the Wednesday night attack in Broken Arrow.

Police have not released the 16-year-old’s name, but Tulsa County District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler confirmed Saturday both siblings have been booked on first-degree murder complaints. It wasn’t immediately clear in jail records when either sibling is due in court.

In Kenya, Obama blends blunt messages with warm reflections

By JULIE PACE The Associated Press NAIROBI, Kenya – President Barack Obama mixed blunt messages to Kenya’s leaders on gay rights, corruption and counterterrorism Saturday with warm reflections on his family ties to a nation that considers him a local son.

He foreshadowed a focus on Kenya in his post-White House life, saying, “I’ll be back.”

Obama’s comments during a news conference with Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta reflected the unusual nature of his long-awaited visit to this East African nation. His official agenda has been sprinkled with opportunities to reconnect with his late father’s sprawling Kenyan family, including some meeting the American president for the first time.

“There are cousins and uncles and aunties that show up that you didn’t know existed, but you’re always happy to meet,” Obama said. “There were lengthy explanations in some cases of the connections.”

Obama did little to paper over policy differences with Kenya’s government, most notably on gay rights. He drew on his own background as an African-American, noting the slavery and segregation of the U.S. past and saying he is “painfully aware of the history when people are treated differently under the law.”

“There are cousins and uncles and aunties that show up that you didn’t know existed, but you’re always happy to meet.”

President Barack Obama “That’s the path whereby freedoms begin to erode and bad things happen,” Obama said. “When a government gets in the habit of treating people differently, those habits can spread.”

Kenyatta was unmoved, saying gay rights “is not really an issue on the foremost mind of Kenyans. And that is a fact.”

A number of Kenyan politicians and religious leaders had warned Obama that any overtures on gay rights would not be welcomed in Kenya, where gay sex is punishable by up to 14 years in prison. The Kenyan gay community also complains of sometimes violent harassment.

Obama also pushed Kenya to tighten its counterterrorism practices, which human rights group say have resulted in serious abuses. A Human Rights Watch report this year accused the Kenyan government of “extrajudicial killings, arbitrary detentions and torture by security forces.”

“If in reaction to terrorism, you’re restricting legitimate organizations, reducing the

scope of peaceful organization, then that can have the inadvertent effect of increasing the pool of recruits for terrorism,” Obama said.

Kenyatta called the scourge of terrorism “an existential fight for us.” The Somalia-based al-Shabab, which is linked to al-Qaida, has conducted major attacks in Kenya, including the 2013 attack on Nairobi’s Westgate mall and an April attack in Garissa that killed nearly 150 people.

Obama also urged Kenyatta to keep up efforts to combat corruption, calling that the biggest potential threat to Kenya’s economic growth. But he said fulfilling anti-corruption pledges will require “visible prosecutions,” and had told Kenyatta, “People aren’t stupid.”

Obama’s trip to Kenya was the first to his father’s homeland since winning the White House, as well as the first visit by a sitting American president. Despite intense security throughout Nairobi, crowds gathered to watch Obama’s motorcade speed through the city. U.S. and American flags lined the main road from the airport and billboard’s heralded his arrival.

Acknowledging that some Kenyans have been frustrated that it took him until the seventh year of his presidency to visit, Obama joked that he did not want the rest of Africa to think he was “playing favorites.”

ANKARA, Turkey – Turkey’s sudden willingness to join the fight against the Islamic State group is a sign that it’s afraid of losing clout with the U.S., but its second front against Kurdish rebels in Iraq on Saturday could complicate Washington’s war.

For months, Ankara had been reluctant to join the U.S.-led coalition against IS despite gains made by the extremist group on Turkey’s doorstep.

Now, Turkish warplanes are directly targeting IS locations – the latest bombing run coming early Saturday for a second straight day.

Turkey then opened a second front on Kurdish rebel sites.

The strikes against the Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK, muddle the U.S.-led fight against IS. The United States has relied on Syrian Kurdish fighters affiliated with the PKK while making gains against IS. U.S. officials declined to comment publicly on the Turkish strikes in northern Iraq.

The Turkish jets hit shelters and storage facilities belonging to the PKK in seven areas in northern Iraq, including Mount Quandil where the group’s headquarters are located, authorities said. It was Turkey’s first aerial raid in northern Iraq against the PKK since Turkey embarked on peace talks with the Kurds in 2012. The PKK declared a cease-fire in 2013.

Turkey’s shift in policy toward the fight against IS also comes amid closer cooperation between Iran and the U.S. following a recent nuclear agreement. An analyst said the agreement threatened to lessen Turkey’s strategic importance, prompting it to cooperate with the U.S.led coalition against the extremists.

Turkey launched the

raids on the IS following a suicide bombing by the extremist group, which killed 32 people, and an IS attack on Turkish forces, which killed a soldier. It also declared that it had reached an agreement with Washington to open up its southern air bases to coalition aircraft, giving itself a front-line role in the fight against IS. Fadi Hakura, a Turkey analyst at Chatham House in London, said Turkish leaders feared that the increased cooperation between Iran and Washington in the battle against IS would sideline Turkey from U.S. calculations, providing one impetus to allow U.S. fighter jets to use Turkish air bases near the Syrian border.

In addition, Islamic State has grown substantially more powerful in the last year, and controls a wider swath of the Turkey-Syria border, leading Turkish intelligence to change its assessment so that it now views the militant group as an imminent threat to Turkish security, said Hakura.

“The use of the Turkish air base is extremely important,” he said. “Before, the U.S. had to traverse 1,000 miles to target IS in Syria.

Now it will be much less, so naturally the air campaign will be far more intense and far more effective.”

The attacks against PKK positions in Iraq comes amid signs of trouble in the peace process, with Turkey accusing the Kurdish rebels of not keeping a pledge to withdraw armed fighters from Turkey’s territory and to disarm. Turkey is also concerned that gains made

by Kurds in Iraq and in Syria could encourage its own minority to seek independence.

Tensions have flared with the Kurds in recent days following the IS suicide bombing in the southeastern city of Suruc on Monday. Kurdish groups blame the government for not doing enough to prevent IS operations.

ment in math, reading and language arts are unpopular among a segment of conservatives who view them, if incorrectly, as a federally mandated curriculum.

Walker showed tacit support for the standards during his first term when he signed budgets that paid for implementing them. Last year, he called for their repeal and replacement with standards set in Wisconsin.

“He was totally in favor of Common Core, which I hate, I hate,” Trump said. Walker changed course on the topic, his rival said, when he saw “he was getting creamed.”

Trump said Walker deserved the criticism because a top fundraiser to the governor referred to Trump in a recent fundraising email as “Dumb dumb.”

Democrats fret over ‘sharing economy,’ and GOP moves in

By NICHOLAS RICCARDI The Associated Press DENVER – The debate over ride-hailing firm Uber is laying bare divides in the Democratic Party and on the left about how to handle the new “sharing” economy. Republicans are hungry to exploit that ambivalence and make inroads into a wealthy sector of the tech industry.

In New York City this past week, liberal Mayor Bill de Blasio tried to limit the number of Uber drivers on the streets, only to be rebuked by the state’s more centrist governor, Andrew Cuomo.

The mayor’s administration decided to allow Uber to expand in the city for another year.

That followed a pledge by the party’s presidential front-runner, Hillary Rodham Clinton, to “crack down” on companies that classify workers as contractors rather than employees, as critics contend Uber and other companies often do.

Clinton did not identify Uber, whose lobbying opera-

But her allusion led Jeb Bush, a Republican technophile who says he prefers his Apple watch to apple pie, to ride in an Uber vehicle during a campaign stop in San Francisco days later.

For years, Republicans have struggled to gain support in the technology industry, an effort hobbled by in part by their stance on so-

cial issues and net neutrality, which is the idea that Internet service providers should not manipulate, slow or block data moving across their networks.

But the bright-blue precincts of Silicon Valley have become a regular stop on the GOP circuit.

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul opened a campaign office at a San Francisco tech incubator that hosted a 24-hour “hack-a-thon” last month.

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio won the backing of Oracle founder Larry Ellison. He held a fundraiser for the senator, whose new book has a chapter with this title: “Making America Safe for Uber.”

“There’s a lot of folks out here who naturally fall into a libertarian place and in the past they were not feeling the love from the GOP,” said Scott Banister, an investor who is raising money for Paul. “Obviously, if the Democratic Party is going to come down on the side of ‘let’s shut down these businesses,’ that’s going to force the issue.”

Trump criticized Graham, a close friend of McCain, after Graham chided Trump for faulting McCain for being shot down as a Navy fighter pilot during the Vietnam War. McCain, held as a prisoner of war for five years, was heralded

by Republicans as a war hero during his 2008 campaign.

“I’m very disappointed in him for one reason. He’s done a bad job with the vets,” said Trump, who has sharply criticized Congress for inaction on calls for improvements for services under the Department of Veterans Affairs.

While Graham and other GOP presidential candidates have sharply criticized Trump for his comments about McCain, Trump held up a stack of paper during his Iowa speech that he said were letters of support he’d received from veter-

ans.

Before Trump arrived at the event, hundreds lined the sidewalk in front of the high school.

Standing in the 90-degree sun, Jill Jepsen held a sign that said, “The Beltway talks, Trump works!”

“He works, and he doesn’t back down,” said Jepsen, a political independent from Oskaloosa. “He’ll get things done.”

At the National Governors Association meeting in West Virginia, two Republicans gave Trump’s campaign little chance of succeeding.

“At the end of the day, I don’t think (Trump) will do very well in Iowa because Iowans like leaders who are humble and hardworking, and people who go to all parts of the state,” Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad said when asked about the reality TV star.

Dems woo activists in key Des Moines neighborhood

By CATHERINE LUCEY The Associated Press DES MOINES, Iowa – Four years ago, the Beaverdale neighborhood in Des Moines organized big for President Barack Obama’s re-election, building an uber-volunteer group skilled at phone-banking, door-knocking and boosting caucus and general election participation. The volunteers dubbed their leafy neighborhood Obamadale.

Now the 2016 Democratic presidential hopefuls are visiting this liberal stronghold, trying to rename it once more.

Former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley hung out at a local bar Friday night and Hillary Rodham Clinton visited a house party Saturday afternoon. But they may have to keep wooing for a while. The neighbors are split among the candidates or undecided.

“I think Obamadale is still kind of an open target for candidates at this point,” said Brad Anderson, a resident who served as Obama’s state director in 2012.

Anderson said that in the last presidential election, the Obamadale group “over-per-

formed by every metric that was set.” The group of about 20 core activists and dozens more participants got training from the campaign and put in long hours working the phones and going door to door. They turned out big numbers on caucus night and again in the November general election, when the incumbent Obama won the state. Their organizing methods were so successful that they were sent to other areas to boost participation.

“You get off work and clock in volunteering,” recalled founding member Kimberly Boggus, 36. “Phone banks Monday and Wednesday. Saturdays and Sundays were canvassing.”

Political engagement is a longtime tradition in the neighborhood. Located a short drive from downtown, the tidy streets are lined with small Tudor-style homes, known as Beaverdale Bricks. The shopping district features a candy shop and an independent bookstore. People mark the seasons with community gatherings and festivals.

It’s the kind of group any Democratic hopeful would like to scoop up.

OSKALOOSA, Iowa – Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump opened up a line of attack Saturday on Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, accusing the leader in recent polls in Iowa of running his neighboring state into financial trouble.

It’s the latest broadside against a rival of the outspoken New York billionaire. Last week, Trump went after South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham for calling him a “jackass.” The New York businessman has characterized other candidates as unfit for the office and said the party’s 2008 nominee, Sen. John McCain, was not a war hero in spite of his years as a prisoner in Vietnam.

Spurred on by a raucous

audience of more than 1,000 at a central Iowa high school, Trump said Walker has an advantage in Iowa because he’s from a neighboring state but that the edge is undeserved because Walker has mismanaged Wisconsin’s budget.

“He grew up right next door.

A little advantage, right?”

Trump said.

“Except WisconDonald sin is doing terTrump ribly.”

Trump faulted Walker, popular for stripping public employees of many of their collective bargaining rights, for falling short of budget projections and changing his position on Common Core education standards. The voluntary statebased benchmarks for achieve-

Whether to invest in Cincinnati Bell Dear Mr. Berko: My broker is touting a low-priced telephone company called Cincinnati Bell and seems to have an inside track on the company. He thinks that changes in the direction of the company’s business to a fiber-optic cable communications company could make it very profitable, as well as a takeover candidate in a few years. He predicts a price in the high $20s in the coming 18 months. If you think there’s a 50-50 chance that will happen, I will buy 15,000 shares. What do you think? – TR, Springfield, Ill. Dear TR: I suspect that your bro-

ker is smoking too many of those left-handed Luckys!

Yes, things have changed significantly since 1874, when Cincinnati Bell (CBB-$3.86) charged its subscribers $300 a year for a phone line not more than 1 mile in length.

Today CBB is a diversified telecommunications and technology company with 3,100 employees and $1.3 billion in 2014 revenues.

Serving the Cincinnati and Dayton metro areas, CBB operates in three business segments: wireline, IT services, and hardware and wireless. Most investors, however, ignore this company and consider CBB a Neanderthal because it provides traditional land-based phone services in a communications market that is being forced out of business by cable and wireless competition. But investors may not realize that in 2012, the board decided to sell off its data storage and wireless phone businesses and use the proceeds to fund a dramatic bet into a fiber-optic cable company.

And CBB’s new business looks as if it’s really beginning to pay off. In 2014, the company’s fiber optics division had $310 million in revenues, which was just under 25 percent of total revenues, and some CBB observers believe that the amount will exceed $600 million by the end of next year. Although revenues for 2015 are expected to decline by about 9 percent because of CBB’s exit from its wireless business, very positive trends are developing for 2016. Last quarter, CBB added 11,600 new high-

TAKING STOCK Malcolm Berko speed Internet customers (it now has 124,600 subscribers) and over 97,000 video subscribers.

The company will probably lose 4 cents a share this year and eke out a small profit in 2016.

Meanwhile, already identified cost reductions and savings, plus growth in its fiber optics division, should allow CBB to post respectable earnings by 2017. CBB doesn’t pay a dividend, but its long-term debt of $1.6 billion is the lowest it’s been in a dozen years.

Although this has been a rotten-egg investment during the past decade – trading as low as $1.75 – some analysts (Morningstar and Market Edge) think CBB could regain respectability and trade in the mid-$5 range soon. I believe there’s a 70-30 chance CBB can reach the $5 to $5.50 level in the next 18 months. But I think your broker’s high-$20s prediction smells like GAPO, or gorilla armpit odor.

However, if you insist on taking a flier, I suggest buying only 6,000 shares ($23,160) and then purchasing 500 shares of Cincinnati Bell’s 6.75 percent Series B cumulative convertible preferred stock (CBB-B), trading at $49.64 and yielding 6.84 percent. This was a $150 million initial public offering of 3.1 million shares in April 2000 at $50 a share. The shares are callable at $50 and are convertible into 1.442 shares of common stock. This is known as a busted preferred because the common has to trade at such a high premium ($34.67) to the $50 call price to break even.

Investing half in the common stock with zero dividend and half in CBB-B will give you a 3.42 percent current return while you’re “waiting for Godot.” CBB-B is not rated; however, the preferred’s 84-cent quarterly dividend was just paid.

Celebrate ADA, but there’s more work to be done “Let the shameful walls of exclusion come tumbling down.”

These were the words that President George H.W. Bush spoke as he signed the Americans with Disabilities Act on July 26, 1990. On Sunday, July 26, 2015, Americans with disabilities will celebrate the 25th anniversary of this landmark piece of federal legislation.

To some people without disabilities, this law may not mean much. However, to the roughly 53 million Americans who have some form of disability, this date marks our Independence Day. Like other minorities, people with disabilities had to fight long and hard to achieve freedom from discrimination.

The struggle was fraught with many setbacks and many forces that opposed the law.

Businesses feared it would bankrupt them. Employers believed hiring a qualified person with a disability would increase their insurance rates.

Lastly, many simply did not understand that citizens with disabilities wanted and deserved equal access and equal opportunity.

Several accomplishments have been achieved as a result of the ADA. Public buses and trains are now accessible. Newly constructed buildings must conform to access requirements. Sign language interpreters must be made available to people who are deaf. Alternative formats for people with vision impairments are more commonplace than before the ADA was passed.

Undoubtedly, one of the most important victories of the ADA was the 1999 U.S.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

GUEST VIEW Pam Heavens Supreme Court Olmstead Decision. The High Court ruled that people with disabilities who lived in institutions had to be given the opportunity to live in the community with proper supports. The court also ruled that each state had to develop an “Olmstead Plan” which would identify people in institutions and offer them the opportunity to leave.

Shamefully, Illinois has not yet developed such a plan. As a result, thousands of people with disabilities remain in institutions, still awaiting their Independence Day. Although progress has been made, there is still much more work to be done. The unemployment rate among working-age people with disabilities is roughly 70 percent. Existing buildings that could be made accessible remain inaccessible.

Public transportation does not adequately cover all areas of the county, state, or nation.

Requests for sign language interpreters are, at times, denied.

Many municipalities do not have curb cuts on every street.

I urge all entities covered under the ADA to review their policies and procedures to ensure that existing walls of exclusion do, indeed, come tumbling down. Only then will the promise of the Americans with Disabilities Act be fulfilled.

Trump always sinks to the occasion Right now, my Republican friends seem to be drawn to candidates who have extreme views and/ or made a name in a field other than politics. And the biggest name at the moment is Donald Trump. Trump is leading in several polls, including the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll, with a double-digit lead over Jeb Bush and Scott Walker.

Some people believe Trump is a genius, and at least one of those people is Donald Trump.

During the 2012 presidential campaign, the Republican base was drawn to Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota and businessman Herman Cain. Some flirted with then-Texas Gov. Rick Perry, but he stumbled badly in the debates. Those candidates faded quickly.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich was their next love, but his candidacy effectively ended in the Florida primary. Republican voters then gave a substan-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Whose interests are being served?

ANOTHER VIEW

To the Editor: In recent papers, I’ve read about a big proposed waste dump out by the racetrack. I’ve also seen another proposal for a giant warehouse, accompanied by the usual pleas for tax abatements and other special considerations. The politicians claim to “keep an open mind” and rule in the interests of economic growth.

But I also read about the cancellation of plans for the Illiana Expressway.

And now a new proposal to extend Houbolt Road across the Des Plaines River for a bridge dedicated to truck traffic right from Interstate 80 to a modular exchange. And finally, proposed extended overweight truck permissions being extended into the harvest season.

Whose interests are being served here?

Huge warehouses gobbling up prime farmland while paying a pittance to few workers; trailers and shipping containers are piling up on wide expanses of land, just rusting in the weather.

Lots of truckers have jobs, but aren’t making a killing, that’s true. But trucks are clogging up our interstates and secondary highways, and even city streets. Accidents and traffic jams are a daily routine. Recently paved roads are coming apart, and serious potholes are tearing up cars.

Yet we keep expanding, ever drawing more and more of the vitality of the local

citizenry, under the guise of “progress.”

Again, whose interests are being served?

I say tax the warehouses. Nail them with adequate – meaning heavier – impact fees, to be fair to us, the local residents.

Tax the storage of latent trailers and shipping containers. See if they’ll pull out. Would other counties welcome them like Will County does?

Roderick C. Padilla Shorewood

Free Loza or jail abortionists

To the Editor: Regarding the Herald-News article July 9, Santos Loza received a 34-year prison sentence for killing an 8-month-old child.

Why is it all right to kill a child 8 months before it is born, but a crime to kill that child 8 months after it is born?

In either case, the same entity is destroyed. There is only a 16-month timing difference.

I know, I know. I’ve heard all the arguments. Eight months before the child is born, it’s only a fetus; not a life. That argument sounds too “lawyerly’’ to me.

The lawyers can argue anything.

If we accept the “lawyerly” argument, then we have to logically accept the argument that the fetus has no value, and can be extracted, like a cancerous growth.

Is a fetus life, or not?

Celebrating U.S. education In 1994, the United States took a victory in Hong Kong that was much more important than any athletic victory it had ever won on the world stage. That victory was won by mental athletes whose names most people never heard: Jeremy Bem, Aleksandr Khazanov, Jacob Lurie, Noam Shazeer, Stephen Wang and Jonathan Weinstein. The U.S. team had a perfect score and beat China, Russia, Bulgaria and Hungary. The competition?

The International Mathematical Olympiad.

The United States was notably proud, as it should have been.

However, the ensuing years did not show much promise for America’s mathematical expertise until last week, 21 years after the perfect score.

We have been presented time and again with evidence our nation’s educational system has slid into disarray, particularly when compared with international standards, and particularly in math and science. The Washington Post reported: “While U.S. teenagers were average in reading and science, their scores were below average in math, compared to 64 other countries and economies that participated in the 2012 Program for International Student Assessment.”

In math, 29 countries had better scores than the U.S. In science,

the U.S. was bettered by 22 countries. Even our top-performing state, Massachusetts, which took the test, was outperformed by Shanghai, the top international performer. A new Pew study shows 28 countries with “significantly” higher math scores than the U.S., and 21 countries with “significantly” higher science scores (www. goo.gl/wwRSLR).

That said, the U.S. team can take this victory as a sign that something is headed in the right direction. The Washington Post reported that the team’s coach, PoShen Loh, said, “This is a matter of national pride. One reason we are super excited is that for the past five years or so, we’ve been consistently second or third. It’s actually quite difficult to win. We are going up against a natural population disadvantage in the sense that China, which is the usual winner, has four times as many people.

Finally, to topple a country that should beat us by all expectations is a fantastic achievement for these six students.”

While we know it won’t happen in our entertainment-focused society, these students – Ryan Alweiss, Allen Liu, Yang Liu, Shyam Narayanan, David Stoner and Michael Kural – should get a ticker-tape parade. Brains don’t wear out as quickly as bodies.

Count on Trump to stoke the fires and poke at Republican establishment • BRAZILE

Continued from page 35 Earlier this week, a senior Democratic strategist told me: “I’m sorry to say this so bluntly, but primary-voting Republicans like to have presidential candidates who don’t fit the public’s idea of a Republican presidential candidate – contenders like Michele Bachmann and Herman Cain in the past cycle. The problem is that they, like Trump, also don’t fit the idea that the GOP power structure has of a Republican candidate.

“Carly Fiorina is becoming the Republicans’ designated Hillary-basher. She’s saying things about another woman that a man can’t say. But Trump steals her thunder by

saying things that nobody can say – and that precious few candidates would want to say, frankly.”

However, 16 Republicans running for president seriously dilutes the numbers each candidate can pull. A candidate can have less than 20 percent and still lead the field.

And Trump’s domination of the news cycle means well-credentialed but less controversial candidates like Ohio Gov. John Kasich are having a hard time getting attention. This hurts Republicans because it favors candidates whose names are easily familiar, such as former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker.

The bottom line is that there is no way Trump can win. The big question is

The bottom line is that there is no way Trump can win. The big question is whether he can prevent every other Republican from winning. whether he can prevent every other Republican from winning. Perhaps this is the reason the Des Moines Register has called for him to drop out of the race.

Trump’s lasting damage could permanently brand the Republicans as hostile to Hispanics, the nation’s fastest-growing demographic group. Hispanics already constitute the largest single ethnic group in the key electoral state of California.

The problem is not just that Trump tarred all Mexican immigrants, but that 70 per-

cent of Republican voters say they agree with him. It’s hard for Republicans to claim that Trump is out of step when over two-thirds of them are marching to the same beat.

In October 2013, former Bill Clinton campaign strategist James Carville, along with pollster Stan Greenberg, did an in-depth study of the groups that compose the Republican Party’s base. At that time, they found the base to be composed primarily of white conservative voters who fear their culture and political views are vanishing from

America, and who are feeling dispossessed.

Trump is exploiting their fears and in return, they feel empowered.

Trump expects to corner this base and arrive at the convention as a kingmaker, at the very least. Now you understand why he won’t apologize; he’d lose votes. For now, we can depend on him to continue deliberately stoking the fires and poking the Republican establishment. It’s where such power as he has lies.

BRONCO REGION YOUTH BASEBALL TOURNAMENT: CHICAGO AFCA 14, CHANNAHON 2 (5 INN.)

Channahon falls in Bronco Region tourney

By ROB OESTERLE

Channahon Bronco shortstop Nicholas Gomoll is late with the tag at second base as AFCA Chicago’s Airon McClendon is safe with a steal in Saturday’s Bronco North Zone Region Tournament game at Channahon.

Channahon lost, 14-2, in five innings.

roesterle@shawmedia.com CHANNAHON – On Thursday, Channahon’s Bronco baseball team fell behind in the top of the first inning, only to storm back for a 14-6 victory over Dubuque, Iowa.

As it did Thursday, Channahon fell behind in the first inning Saturday against Chicago AFCA. But unlike Thursday, they were unable to mount a comeback, as AFCA handed Channahon a 14-2 five-inning loss. That moved AFCA into the championship Sunday, with Channahon facing a do-or-die game against Dubuque again later Saturday. If Channahon beats Dubuque, it goes to the Zone Tournament in Chebanse next weekend, as the top two teams in this weekend’s Channahon Region move on.

It wasn’t Channahon’s day from the start.

AFCA’s LaShon Smith led off with a walk, then stole second. An out later, he stole third before Andrew Ivey walked. A grounder to second by Cameron Hill scored Smith for a 1-0 lead, with Ivey moving to second. Charles Ward followed with a triple to right-center, scoring Ivey for a 2-0 lead before scoring himself on a wild pitch as AFCA grabbed a 3-0 lead after a half an inning.

In the top of the second, AFCA added to its lead when Smith singled to left, scoring Kyle Tyler, who had led off with a single before stealing second and third. On Smith’s single, Aaron McClendon, who had walked, was out at third as the Channahon defense flawlessly executed a rundown, the putout going 7-65-4-1.

Channahon was able to get runners on second and third in the bottom of the second, as Dalton Pickett led off with a walk and went to third when Jake Faron reached on an error. Faron stole second, but both runners were stranded when the third out was made.

AFCA then broke the game open in the third. Ivey led off with a triple to right. Hill was hit by a pitch before an infield single by Ward scored Ivey

“If we win the second game [against Dubuque], we move on. I feel pretty good about our chances.”

Jeff Zawacki Channahon Bronco baseball coach

Channahon Bronco’s Nicholas Gomoll tries to steal second base but is tagged out by AFCA Chicago shortstop LaShon Smith to end the game Saturday. and Hill, who had stolen second, came all the way around to score as well to make it 6-0.

A groundout by Devon Allen scored Ward, who had stolen third, for a 7-0 lead. Tyler singled to right, and winning pitcher James Holliday hit a high chopper to short. When the ball scooted under the

shortstop’s glove, Tyler scored and Holliday went to second on the throw home. A wild pitch moved Holliday to third, and he scored on a sacrifice fly to center by Smith. Larence White walked and Ivey reached on an error, sending White to third. White was out trying to score on a wild pitch

to end the inning, but by then, AFCA had a 10-0 lead.

Channahon couldn’t get to Holliday in the third, and AFCA put up three more runs in the top of the fourth, highlighted by a two-run single by Aaron McClendon.

Pickett led off the bottom of the fourth with Channahon’s first hit, a single to left. After he stole second, Pickett scored when Alex Zawacki reached on an error. Zawacki was out trying to steal before Jake Mayfield was robbed of a hit by a diving catch by shortstop Smith. Matt Fisher and Mike Escobedo both walked, with Fisher stealing second and third. A balk allowed Fisher to

score and brought Channahon to within 13-2.

AFCA added a run in the top of the fifth on an RBI single by Hill to cap the scoring.

“We started to play a little better in the last couple innings,” Channahon coach Jeff Zawacki said. “But those first three were not typical of Channahon baseball. I thought our pitchers actually threw great, but AFCA is a good team. They are a full-time travel team and probably play 80 to 100 games together. We play about 20 to 25. Still, if we had played like we can, we would have hung right with them.

“Now, hopefully, we will be a little angry about losing and come out with some fire against Dubuque. That’s the big one for us. If we win the second game, we move on.

I feel pretty good about our chances. We still have plenty of pitching left.”

In the Mustang Region tournament on a different field, Channahon defeated Berwyn, 13-2, to move to Sunday’s 2 p.m. title game.

JOLIET PARK DISTRICT CITY TOURNAMENT – MEN’S OPEN FINAL: KBI 20, PULLARA 8

By DICK GOSS JOLIET – As Ken’s Beverage Inc. manager Dave Catalani noted, “It’s not the way it used to be years ago, when they were lined up all the way down both foul lines.”

Still, a good-size crowd showed up Friday night at the Inwood Softball Complex to watch the crown jewel of the annual Joliet Park District City Tournament, the Men’s Open championship. The fans got everything they expected, and perhaps a little more.

Pullara Construction won the first title game, 31-21, to force the “if necessary” game.

KBI responded like the champion it is, winning the second game, 20-8, for its 15th Open division city crown.

“I’ll tell you what – if they had hit the ball in the second game like they did in the first one, it would have been their game again,” Catalani said. “Both teams played well. There were almost no errors.”

“They’re a great team,” Pullara manager Jerry Feeney said. “They were the ‘D’ world champions last year. Dave Catalani has done a great job with them, although I think he’s mellowed out a little after all these years.”

“It’s fun to win,” Catalani said. “But I really mean this: I would have been happy if they had won. That’s because of the manager, Jerry Feeney.

He means so much to softball in this area. He’s just one of those special people. He does so much for these kids who are playing the game. I hope they realize it.”

In fact, Feeney said Catalani told him before the finals how happy he would be if Feeney’s team won.

“I told him, ‘Cat, I don’t mind losing to you,’ ” Feeney said. “But I want to beat you, too.”

Feeney said he feels there are a couple hands guiding him from above whenever he is on the softball diamond. He lost two dear friends – and the Joliet area lost two softball giants – with the recent deaths of Jim Brumund and Tom Sed-

don.

“I know Mr. Jim Brumund is looking down and helping me along my path,” Feeney said. “And I still miss Tommy Seddon, too. Those are two icons in this sport.”

The showdown Friday night began with a slugfest.

KBI scored nine runs in the first inning and eight in the second, and Pullara had 13-run explosions in the second and fourth innings.

Keith Hendricks, Scott Heichert and Tim Bingham all had three-run homers in the second. Frank Finger hit a two-run homer, Bob Gustafson singled home two runs with his fourth hit, and Adam Feeney doubled in a pair in the fourth.

Greg Hendricks and Gustafson each had four of Pullara’s 34 hits. Bret Van Gampler, Brandon More, Anthony Gonzalez and Jimmy Heichert had three hits.

Andy Brown, Cory Catalani and Mark Tomse belted threerun homers for KBI. Dakota Brown, Andy Brown and Ryan Miller had three hits.

In the winner-take-all game, after Pullara’s Keith Hendricks hit a two-run homer in the first inning, KBI scored six times in the top of the sec-

“The first game was exciting, I guess more exciting for them,” Dakota Brown said.

“When that one was over, we said it’s a new game, just restart it.

“We’ve played these guys four of five times, and it’s always a good game. We got hot in the second game. We’ve been hitting our stride lately.

We won two or three of the last four tournaments we were in.”

Brandon More hammered a three-run homer in the finale for Pullara. Van Gampler, Keith Hendricks. Bingham and Gustafson had two hits.

“We’re 50-18 now for the season,” Jerry Feeney said.

“We’re having a good year.

This was a good finish to the city tournament. Everybody played well.

“This is the second year this Pullara group has been together. We have two sets of brothers and four or five kids I’ve coached. They have fun and appreciate each other.

JOLIET PARK DISTRICT CITY TOURNAMENT – MEN’S COMPETITIVE: ROAD DAWGS 16, JERRY’S KIDS 7

Road Dawgs double-dip Jerry’s Kids for title

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Manager and pitcher Jeff Cordova said his Road Dawgs team got a break when the United States Slowpitch Softball Association changed its classification from D Elite to D a few weeks ago.

“We started the year D Elite,” he said. “If we had stayed there, we would have had to play in the Open division. We’ve been in the Open the last six or seven years.

We made the finals twice, and one year KBI [Ken’s Beverage Inc.] had to double-dip us to win it.”

Yes, KBI again won the Men’s Open, the top division of the Joliet Park District City Softball Tournament, on Diamond No. 1 Friday night at the Inwood Complex.

That happened immediately after the Road Dawgs’ twogame sweep of Jerry’s Kids on the same field for the Men’s Competitive title. The Road Dawgs won the first game, 107, to force the “if necessary” game that they won, 16-7.

“We’re really happy with how it came out,” Cordova said. “The park district here pays for winning the city tournament, so we basically get next year’s entry fee paid for the league.”

Make no mistake, the Road Dawgs are an Open-caliber team. They will be in the Open next year.

“We didn’t want to lose an opportunity to play in the Competitive when we had it,” Cordova said. “I don’t know when they will let us do that again.

“We really felt coming in that we are the favorite in this division. But we lost a game the other night to Traditions, 13-9. Then we played them again and beat them, 26-2, in 2½ innings.”

Jerry Kids, meanwhile, entered the finals as the unbeaten team and was no slouch.

JOLIET PARK DISTRICT CITY TOURNAMENT – MEN’S ‘D’ RECREATIONAL: PIPEFITTERS 22, CBHB 12

Pipefitters come back to take Men’s Rec D title

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com

JOLIET – After staging a huge comeback win Thursday, the Pipefitters had some wiggle room when they met Coldwell Banker Honig-Bell in Friday’s finals of the Men’s “D” Recreational division in the Joliet Park District City Softball Tournament at Inwood.

And they needed it after Coldwell Banker Honig-Bell rallied for a wild, 20-19 victory in the teams’ opener to force a winner-take-all championship.

After falling behind, 3-0, following one inning, the Pipefitters erupted for eight runs in the next two innings, and CBHB never got any clos-

er than three runs back as the Pipefitters captured a 22-12 victory in the finale.

The Pipefitters averaged 21 runs while going 4-1 in the tournament. Pitcher Josh Munn said the key win came when they overcame an early, 15-3 deficit to Quack Pack and won that game, 27-17, to avoid falling into the losers’ bracket.

CBHB rattled off six straight wins in the consolation bracket after splitting their first two games but seemed to run out of gas during its ninth contest of the week.

“We settled down in the second game and got our heads into it,” Pipefitters’ Kris Riley said. “We just came out and hit and had good defense

in the middle. Dave O’Brien made some good plays when we needed them, and we shut them down. And Josh was getting us ground balls for double plays and getting us fly balls, and we switched up the outfield.”

Munn’s pitching stymied Coldwell Banker Honig-Bell, and Dave O’Brien came up with some big plays at short/ center, which resulted in several double plays at key times.

The Pipefitters saw their lead cut to 14-11 after five innings and still only were up, 16-12, going into the seventh when they put things away with a six-run outburst.

“It’s very hard to double-dip a team,” Pipefitters’ Matt O’Brien said. “We have a lot of injuries, but guys kept

coming out and hitting for us.

And Josh pitched really well in the second game, and we were able to get some big hits, and we pulled it out. We were super tough on each other, but we also had a good time, and we’re all good friends.”

Coldwell Banker Honig-Bell featured members who were on some of the best high school football and baseball teams to come from this area during recent years.

Jonathan Darin, Eric Sternberg and Frank Kucera were members of Lockport’s 2005 Class AA baseball champions. Sternberg also was on both the Porters’ 2002 and 2003 Class 8A football championship teams, and Steve Kunce and Kucera were on the 2003 squad.

It looked as if it might be an early evening for CBHB after it fell behind, 12-7, after four innings in the opener.

But the squad scored four runs in the fifth and eight more in the sixth and an extra run in the seventh helped them hold off a late Pipefitters rally.

“We lost our second game on Monday night, and that sent us into the losers’ bracket, and we ended up fighting through that and played every day this week,” Darin said.

“It’s tough to play that many games, but we had a great group of guys of all ages. The four of us joined up with some guys that we’ve played with through the years, and we’ve made the best team that we possibly could.”

JOLIET – O’Charley’s Pub served notice Friday it might be a team to be reckoned with in the future after capturing the Men’s “E” Recreational division title over Traditions in the Joliet Park District City Softball Tournament at the Inwood Complex.

“It feels amazing. I don’t know what to say,” said Riley Charley, the 19-year-old manager who helped put the team together. “This is our first year of playing softball together. I’ve played baseball with these guys all my life. They’re all St. Joe’s baseball players and Joliet West guys.”

O’Charley’s entered Friday with a 4-0 record in tournament play, while Traditions was 3-1. Traditions defeated O’Charley’s, 13-10, in the first game thanks to an eight-run barrage in the fourth inning.

That set up a winner-take-all in Game 2.

O’Charley’s won the coin toss and hit first. By the time the first inning ended, O’Charley’s held a 10-1 lead; and for all practical purposes, the game –

JOLIET PARK DISTRICT CITY SOFTBALL TOURNAMENT – MIXED COMPETITIVE: McBRIDE’S 12, LANDMARK 11 (8 INN.)

McBride’s on 52/Beckman tops Landmark

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – One way to dig out of a hole is to use your allotment of home runs wisely.

That’s what McBride’s on 52/Beckman Trucking did late Thursday night as it rallied from an 11-4 deficit to beat Landmark Landscaping, 12-11, in eight innings, in the Mixed Competitive division championship game of the Joliet Park District City Softball Tournament at Inwood.

Josh Mendoza and Mike Hauser delivered two-run homers in a four-run fifth inning that made it 11-8. Mendoza was back for more in the seventh, walloping the tying three-run blow well beyond the fence in left-center.

Defending champion Landmark, which had jumped to a 6-0 lead in the top of the first inning, did not score after the fifth. After Landmark was blanked in the top of the eighth, McBride’s on 52/Beckman went about the business

of finishing the city unbeaten and avoiding the “if necessary” game.

Amy Schultz led off the bottom of the eighth with a single and made a mad dash around the bases, culminating in a head-first slide, on Cory Catalani’s walk-off hit to right-center field.

“I had no idea where the ball was,” Schultz said.

“Mitch [Schroeder, coaching third at the time] told me to go, and I went. I was leaning forward so hard that the only way I could do it was [sliding] head first.”

“Amy is our dirty player,” manager Tracy Nosal laughed. “She always does something to get dirty. It was good to see her go for it. End it while you can.”

Landmark, which had lost to McBride’s on 52/Beckman, 23-21, earlier in the tournament, reached the finals with a 15-14 victory over Full Tilt.

Landmark had trailed, 12-6, after six innings, scored nine in the top of the seventh to

“We were up most of the game, but they nipped us at the end. A lot of their guys were playing in the Open Division and got over here late in the game to help them out. Four of our guys are 53 or over, and their guys are in their 20s. They’re a great team. We won it the last couple of years and had fun tonight. That’s all that matters.”

Terry Feeney Landmark Landscaping manager

lead, 15-12, and then held off Full Tilt’s last-ditch effort in the bottom of the seventh.

When manager Terry Feeney’s team opened the title game with a 6-spot in the first, it appeared it was their night.

“We were up most of the game, but they nipped us at the end,” Feeney said. “A lot of their guys were playing in the Open Division and got over here late in the game to help them out. Four of our guys are 53 or over, and their guys are

in their 20s. They’re a great team. We won it the last couple of years and had fun tonight.

That’s all that matters.”

In addition to his two homers, Mendoza also doubled off the left-field fence.

“We had to get runs somehow,” he said. “We have a lot of great players, but we weren’t scoring.”

“Those guys can hit any pitch well,” McBride’s on 52/ Beckman leadoff hitter Dani Reilly said of Mendoza and

Hauser going deep. “The guys we play with, it’s fun to watch them hit.

“Of course, we [the women in the lineup] want to contribute, too. The first few innings we were kind of switching off.

The girls would hit one inning, and the guys the next.

That wasn’t getting it done.”

Many of the females on the McBride’s on 52/Beckman roster were keys to No Mercy/D’Arcy winning a sixth straight Women’s Division title Wednesday.

Reilly, Lee Johnson, Sarah White and Schultz had two hits for McBride’s on 52/Beckman in the Mixed final. Alex Wyss doubled home two runs.

For Landmark, Jon Vugvesteen hit a shot into the right-field corner that became an inside-the-park grand slam and also singled. Scott Kline had three hits and Tom Hallberg doubled twice.

“They’re an awesome team,” Reilly said of Landmark. “We had to play our best to keep up with them.”

JOLIET PARK DISTRICT CITY SOFTBALL TOURNAMENT – MIXED RECREATIONAL: IT’S US TOMCATS 9, DOGHOUSE

It’s Us Tomcats able to edge Doghouse Pub

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – There wasn’t a whole lot separating the top two teams in the Joliet Park District’s City Softball Tournament Mixed Recreational division clash.

Two days after It’s Us Tomcats edged Doghouse Pub, 109, the squads met again Thursday, and the winner of the earlier matchup pulled out a 9-8 victory at Inwood.

Doghouse Pub put itself in position to force a rubber game after scoring five runs in the first inning, but It’s Us Tomcats scored three in the first and three more in the third to move in front for good.

After yielding the five-run first, It’s Us pitcher Mark Caven allowed Doghouse Pub to collect only a single run in

the fifth and two more in the seventh inning.

“I always have one inning that kind of gets away from me, and usually it’s the first,” Caven said. “So I get that out of the way, and then I settle down and battle back and rely on your team by getting base hit after base hit. Everybody was having a lot of fun, and we’ve been playing together for years, so it’s more and more fun every year.”

It’s Us Tomcats took a 7-5 lead in the fourth and increased it to 9-6 an inning later, which was fortunate because Doghouse Pub got a pair in the seventh and had the tying run at third base when the contest concluded.

“They came out and jumped on us early, but we fought as a team to stay together,” It’s Us Tomcats’ Troy Anderson said. “It was 1

“I always have one inning that kind of gets away from me, and usually it’s the first. So I get that out of the way, and then I settle down and battle back and rely on your team by getting base hit after base hit.”

Mark Caven It’s Us Tomcats pitcher through 12, it wasn’t just one of us, it was a team effort. The city tournament is a great atmosphere and a great family environment. It’s great to be able to play out here.”

Besides getting some timely hits to chip away at the early deficit, It’s Us Tomcats came up with several good plays defensively that helped keep Doghouse Pub at bay.

“It was a close game,” It’s Us Tomcats’ Raymond Maury said. “I made an over-the-

back catch, and that was really clutch, and one of our girls made a good diving catch in right field to save a couple of runs, and we kept the momentum on our side. We fought and fought until we got ahead and then just tried to keep the lead.”

While it was another close, exciting win for It’s Us Tomcats, the most important thing was that all of the players seemed to enjoy themselves throughout.

“You want a close game and a good game, but as long as everyone has fun, then that’s the whole point,” It’s Us Tomcats’ Shawna Riechers said. “We made it suspenseful, which was even better. We all work and come out here to have fun, and that’s what it’s all about.”

Doghouse Pub pitcher Wess Davidson figured it would be another close game between the squads and there would plenty of give and take.

“We’ve played these guys for several years, and it’s always a close game and a battle,” Davidson said. “They’re a great team all around, and it’s a good rivalry, and we’re good friends. At the end of the day, we don’t get any money for this – we’re out here for fun.

It’s for bragging rights and because we love the game.”

Joliet Slammers starter Adam Giacalone makes a pick-off move to first base against Windy City Thunderbolts on Thursday at Silver Cross Field in Joliet.

Giacalone allowed only six hits and two earned runs while striking out four in six innings, but the Slammers lost, 3-1.

THUNDERBOLTS 3, SLAMMERS 1

Slammers manage only 4 hits in loss

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – On Friday, the Joliet Slammers concentrated all of their scoring in one inning, but it worked out as they scored seven times in the sixth to claim a 7-2 victory over Windy City.

A day later, the Slammers did the same thing – but this time, the result was not as satisfying.

Joliet got a solo home run from Nate Roberts in the third inning to give it a brief lead, but the Thunderbolts evened the score in the fourth and took control with two runs in the fifth to claim a 3-1 Frontier League victory on Saturday before 2,063 at Silver Cross Field.

“We had opportunities to score but hit into a couple of double plays, and we just couldn’t get anything rolling offensively,” Slammers manager Jeff Isom said. “It was a frustrating day.

“We’ve got to be more con-

sistent at the plate and can’t just rely on the one big inning.

It’s kind of been our MO, where we sit back and all of a sudden we’ll put pressure on late, and we can’t do that. We have to do it from the start of the game all the way throughout.

“It’s just a case of getting guys in scoring position and coming up with the big hit.

We’ve got the right personnel, so we just have to get it done.”

The Slammers (24-35) managed only four hits against three Thunderbolts pitchers. Starter Austin Wright allowed all of them before Cameron Giannini and Joel Lima each pitched an inning of relief.

Adam Giacalone pitched well enough to get a win on most days, allowing six hits and two earned runs while striking out four in six innings.

David Kubiak didn’t allow a hit and fanned four during his three innings of work.

In the fourth, Max White (2 for 3) doubled in Austin Galla-

gher (2 for 3) to tie the score; and an inning later, Windy City (22-36) moved in front when Gallagher singled home Coco Johnson and Mike Torres scored the final run on an error.

Jack Cleary, Hunter Ridge and Casey Fletcher also got a hit each for Joliet. Play was

halted briefly in the ninth when a fan was hit by a bat that sailed over the visitors dugout.

In Friday’s series opener, Joliet used six straight hits to collect all of its runs in the sixth inning, helping it overcome a 2-0 deficit.

Phil Bates (2 for 5), Mike

Garza and Cleary each drove in a pair of runs, while Carlos Lopez also went 2 for 3 for the Slammers.

Kevin McNorton allowed only two hits and no runs in 31⁄3 innings of relief to get the win.

Starter Michael Carden yielded eight hits and two runs and struck out four in 53⁄3 innings.

Hamel gets no-hitter vs. Cubs; Lockport’s Sox win 3rd straight vs. Indians Timmons gets CHICAGO – Cole Hamels is facing a quick trip from the record book to the trading block.

The Philadelphia ace became the first pitcher to throw a no-hitter against the Cubs in 50 years, watching as rookie center fielder Odubel Herrera stumbled on the warning track before catching a flyball to end the Phillies’ 5-0 win Saturday.

“It’s something where you just go out there and enjoy the moment,” Hamels said. “What I want is to be successful at it. I enjoyed the moment and this happened.”

Hamels (6-7) struck out

13, tossing his first career no-hitter in what could be his final start for the Phillies. The 2008 World Series MVP has been mentioned prominently in trade talks as the July 31 deadline approaches.

It was the first no-hitter versus the Cubs since Sandy Koufax pitched a perfect game in 1965.

Sale, White Sox cruise CLEVELAND – Chris Sale allowed two runs in seven innings, and the White Sox used a five-run first inning Saturday night to power past the Cleveland Indians, 10-3.

Sale (9-5) cruised after being handed the big lead before taking the mound.

The left-hander struck out seven to regain the American League lead with 170. Sale allowed seven hits and didn’t walk a batter.

Jose Abreu drove in three runs, Melky Cabrera was 3 for 5 with two RBIs, and Carlos Sanchez hit his first major league homer.

The Sox, who came to Cleveland with six losses in seven games, have outscored the Indians, 24-4, in winning the first three games of a series that ends Sunday.

NASCAR XFINITY SERIES

Kyle Busch wins with late pass at Indy The ASSOCIATED PRESS INDIANAPOLIS – Kyle Busch spent the last 10 laps desperately chasing Ryan Blaney. When the old pro finally caught up, the 21-yearold youngster flinched.

As Blaney attempted to pass a slower car in the back straightaway Saturday on the final laps, Blaney’s car wiggled, Busch ducked inside, raced past and held on to win the Xfinity Series race at Indianapolis for the

second time in three years.

The 0.421-second victory margin was the closest of the four races held on Indianapolis’ historic 2.5- mileoval. Rookie Daniel Suarez of Mexico finished third.

“It’s cool and it’s great and all, and made for an exciting last lap,” Busch said.

“We just never should have been in that position to begin with. If it wasn’t for a mistake by the car in front of us, we would have lost today.”

Instead, it was yet anoth-

er stunning chapter in Busch’s remarkable comeback.

Since missing the first three months of the season after breaking his right leg and left foot in the Xfinity opener at Daytona, the 30-year-old Cup regular has reached victory lane five times – twice on the Xfinity circuit and three in the Sprint Cup Series. He also won the pole Saturday, his third straight at Indy, and has won two of NASCAR’s last three undercard races here.

FARGO, N.D. – Lockport junior wrestler Trevell Timmons won the 152-pound title in Cadet Freestyle on Friday at the ASICS/Vaughan National Championships at the FargoDome.

In the finals, Timmons overcame an early 6-0 deficit against Henderson, Nevada’s Giulian Nakamatsu to capture a 16-6 win by technical fall, capping his victory with a body lock.

Timmons, who won all six of his matches by technical fall, joined Washington’s Jacob Warner (170) as the only Illinois champions in the Cadet Freestyle competition.

Team Illinois easily defeated Pennsylvania, 93-53, for the title.

Earlier in the week, an athlete who lives in Lockport – St. Rita junior Austin O’Connor – settled for second place in Junior Greco-Roman at 145 pounds.

O’Connor – a two-time IHSA champion who was a two-time All-American last year at Fargo – fell, 17-14, to Andrew Webb of Lilburn, Georgia, in the title match.

Team Illinois defeated Wisconsin, 65-51, for the championship.

Lockport’s Shayne Oster fell in the 138-pound quarterfinals in Junior Freestyle and finished, 4-2, losing a two-point decision to fall a win shy of earning All-American honors.

Also for the Porters in Cadet Freestyle, Abdullah Assaf went 5-2 and fell one win shy of All-American honors at 126 while Baylor Fernandes had a 4-2 showing at 132.

South Wilmington adventurer has no plans for settling down

By DAWN AULET Shaw Media Correspondent SOUTH WILMINGTON – Jason Lawless of South Wilmington has a lot of labels for himself – gypsy, dirt bag, traveler.

These terms may seem negative to some, but not for Lawless.

Lawless has seen three of the seven modern wonders of the world. He has climbed the tallest peaks in three continents – Africa, South America and North America. He has gone to the highest and lowest points in the lower 48 states, and he plans to do even more.

“I have big dreams. I have a life plan. I can tell you what I will be doing five years from now,” Lawless said. “So often people ask me, ‘What would you do if you hit the lottery?’

And then on the other hand, I have also had people ask me, ‘What would you do if you come back and you don’t have a job waiting for you?’ ” Lawless already has those answers.

“I would just do more of what I am already doing,” Lawless said.

A 1990 graduate of Gardner-South Wilmington High School, Lawless joined the U.S. Marines and lived in Hawaii. Six years ago, Lawless moved back home to South Wilmington, which he loosely calls “home.”

He and Jellybean – the name of his truck – took to the open road. He had two rules – no hotels and no couches.

And those were easy to follow because he has modified his truck to be a mobile home – complete with sun panels to charge his electronic devices.

“This year, I was on the road for five months. I was living in my truck,” Lawless said. “I drove 15,000 miles through 20 states.”

Jason saw the lowest point in North America – which

realized he preferred it. To clarify, Lawless is not, he said, a tourist. He is a traveler.

“Tourists go to places to be entertained by a culture.

Travelers go to places to experience a culture,” Lawless said. “A traveler is going to take the bus, camp, maybe stay in the hostel, go to the grocery store and buy food.

You’re not going to restaurants; you cannot afford that.”

During that five-month road trip, Lawless slept in his car – often in Walmart parking lots. He visited with the many friends he has made and kept around the world – but he stayed in his truck in their driveway.

And, he spent a long time training to climb the next mountain.

Mountain climbing exPhotos provided plains the “dirt bag” nickJason Lawless of South Wilmington relaxes in camp during his Denali climb. name. A dirt bag is someone who lives cheaply and works odd jobs to maximize the amount of time spent climbing, Lawless said.

Lawless worked on road construction during the construction season. He owns a seasonal cabin in South Wilmington and rents a room from his grandmother in his childhood home. He lives simply, so he can travel as much as possible.

“When I was growing up, we never traveled anywhere,” Lawless said. “I had never even been to another state until I left for the Marine Corps LEFT: Lawless does porta-ledge camping on the side of El Capitan in Yosemite Valley. Lawless said he spent in 1991.”

Will you consider the alternatives?

CELEBRITY CIPHER

A.J. Kitt, an Alpine skier who won one World Cup downhill race, said, “You have no control over what the other guy does. You only have control over what you do.”

That has been the theme of this week’s deals. One defender has the chance to control what happens.

In this last example, how should East-West card to defeat three hearts

by South after West leads the spade ace?

In bidding, one is told not to rebid a five-card suit on the second round, but West’s spades certainly look like a six-carder. And three clubs is short on appeal with such a poor suit. North was right to rebid three, not four, hearts. South was a passed hand and rated to have only a five-card suit because he had not opened with a weak two-bid.

West leads the spade ace: five, nine, seven. How should West continue?

The defenders need five tricks.

East’s spade nine must be from a singleton or a doubleton. If so, West can cash three spade winners and have the heart ace in the background.

But where is the fifth trick?

East is unlikely to have a club winner. West’s best hope for success is gaining a diamond ruff. At trick two (or three), West should shift to his diamond.

Declarer will probably win in his hand and lead a low heart, but West rushes in with the ace, cashes the spade king (if he led his diamond at trick two), then leads the spade 10 (or jack).

East will ruff the trick and return a diamond. West’s ruff is the fifth defensive trick.

to split the pill in half.

You also might crush it into powder. It depends on the type of medicine.

Make sure to check with the pharmacist first.

To turn a pill into powder, crush it between two spoons. Pill crushers and pill splitters are available for purchase at most pharmacies. Once crushed, mix the powder with syrup, yogurt, applesauce or any sweet food that does not need to be chewed.

Capsules that work slowly over time should not be crushed. Instead, ask your pharmacist if the medicine inside of them can be opened and put into a sweet food.

Make sure the food does not need to be chewed.

Swallowing pills can get easier with practice.

One way to practice is by swallowing candies.

Start with a tiny one and slowly move on to bigger ones.

Try to use candies that will melt quickly if they get stuck. You also can try coating them with butter first.

Most kids who have trouble swallowing pills grow out of it.

However, some of my adult patients don’t like swallowing pills. One couple I cared for both took about 10 pills every evening.

Only he put them all in his palm, threw them all into his mouth, and swallowed them down with two gulps of water.

She swallowed them one at a time, and following each swallow said, “Ick!�

old recently was prescribed a medication that comes only in pill form. The problem is, he canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t swallow pills. Any advice?

Dear Reader: Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perfectly normal for children to have trouble swallowing pills.

The good news is there are techniques you can try to make it easier.

A review article in the journal Pediatrics looked at a variety of techniques. These included using a special cup and teaching children different ways to hold their heads while swallowing.

All of the techniques worked well for most of the children. More important, most children overcame their pill-swallowing problems.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important because children who need medicine must be able to take it.

Try this technique first: (1) Place the pill far back on your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tongue.

(2) Have him quickly drink water or a favorite drink and prompt him to swallow large amounts. This will help him focus on the liquid. Drinking quickly through a straw can also help.

(3) Direct your son to keep his head up straight or bent slightly forward. It can be hard to swallow if the head is bent backward.

Your child may not like the taste or smell of the pill.

If thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the case, try putting it in something sweet, such as ice cream, applesauce or another soft food.

The point is to get the pill into his stomach. If hiding the pill â&#x20AC;&#x201C; visually and from his taste buds â&#x20AC;&#x201C; gets it into his stomach, fine.

Sometimes itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s OK

Real Life Adventures

Dear Abby: I am the 24/7 caregiver for my husband, “Earl.” We were both widowed when we married nine years ago. His daughter, “Mindy,” hasn’t talked to her father for six years – hasn’t called, emailed or even sent a birthday card.

If he tried calling her, she wouldn’t pick up.

Recently, Earl had a serious health problem resulting in a colostomy bag. I take care of everything. When he called to tell Mindy, her husband answered the phone and said she wasn’t home. When my husband told him about his health, the son-in-law said OK – nothing more.

Then Earl invited the whole family to come here. Again, the response was, “I don’t know.”

After Earl hung up, I said, “I think it’s time Mindy came here to take care of you.” (Six years ago she told my husband, “Dad, if you die first, I’ll get that woman out of the house in three days.”)

Abby, must I wait for this to happen or should I just pack my stuff and move out, leaving a vulnerable 88-year-old man alone? Mindy will put him in a nursing home and sell the house to pay off her credit card debt – some of it, because the house isn’t worth much money.

Earl says, “Don’t leave me, I need you.” Well, what about me? Where is my life and my security? I’m getting older. If he lives another 10 years, it will take a toll on my health, and I’ll be moving?

Should I seek compensation for my caregiving?

I pay all my own expenses.

I don’t pay rent. That was the main concern from his relatives when we got married. I was a widow and had a job and a condo, which I sold. I put the money in the bank and used cash to pay for a new car, a computer, a wheelchair for my husband, etc.

Don’t I have to plan for my future in my old age?

Or should I leave it up to God and hope He takes me

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips before my husband? I need your advice. – Worried Wife

In Florida Dear Worried Wife: You’re

right to be concerned about your future. That’s why, before making any decisions, it is important you consult a lawyer and learn what your rights are as a wife in the state of Florida. You should not have to worry about being thrown out into the street because Earl’s daughter has money problems and is looking to cash in. If you love your husband, your place is beside him for as long as the good lord allows.

Dear Abby: I recently married “Ron,” a widower. His wife “Marianne” died three years ago. They had a solid, happy marriage. Ron’s father had a heart attack and died at their wedding reception.

Ron had a tattoo put on his arm – “E.R.M.” and the date. The letters stand for his father (“Erwin”), Ron and Marianne. The date is their wedding date. Ron says on that day the three of them were eternally bound.

I don’t like the tattoo, but Ron refuses to have it removed.

I’m mostly unhappy about Ron’s feeling that there’s an eternal bond between him, his late wife and his father. Am I unreasonable for wanting him to remove it? – Inked Out West Dear Inked: Yes. It’s a huge mistake to compete with dead people. It is understandable that your husband would feel love for his deceased wife and father. That love is part of why he’s the person he is today – the man you fell in love with. The sooner you learn to appreciate him for all the love in his heart, the healthier your marriage will be.

This magnificent home in the Williamsburg community of Plainfield is pure luxury.

Classic elegance is projected from the very first view from the curb, showing a high arched entryway, unique window architecture and multiple rooflines, and flows inward from the first entry to the huge foyer facing a stylish curved staircase with curved balcony above.

This unique blend of style and luxury flows throughout this five-bedroom home, with special woodwork design, top-quality materials and quality craftsmanship in every room.

A few examples include marble and hardwood flooring on the main level, and a gourmet kitchen with abundant custom cabinetry, solid marble table (stays with home) in the eating area, and uniquelystyled island and breakfast bar flanked by a wood pillar. Soaring windows in the family room offer stellar views of the community water feature, and a coffered ceiling laced with wood beams in the library expands the feel well beyond its 20-by-13-foot floor space.
