City council to improve water main pipe projects

Railroad crossing to be closed most of week

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – This past winter did a number to some of the city’s water main pipes, causing a handful of improvement projects to be pushed up the priority list.

Five street sections have been targeted because of high failure rates, City Manager Jim Hock said Monday night at Joliet City Council’s pre-council meeting.

“Our water crews have been out there doing a lot of water main repairs, especially with this last winter,” Hock said. “We’ve kept track. Sometimes it’s the age. Sometimes it’s the subsoil. Sometimes it’s dryness or frost that moves the soil, but if we’ve got a main that keeps breaking, it moves high up on the priority list for replacement.”

Council members could approve the awarding of bid contracts during the next City Council meeting Tuesday. The five projects will cost a total of about $3 million.

Street sections slated for pipe rehabilitation or replacement include Black Road near

“Our water crews have been out there doing a lot of water main repairs, especially with this last winter. We’ve kept track. Sometimes it’s the age. Sometimes it’s the subsoil. Sometimes it’s dryness or frost that moves the soil, but if we’ve got a man that keeps breaking, it moves high up on the priority list for replacement.”

Jim Hock City manager Lois Place; Nicholson Street from Ingalls Avenue to Theodore Street; Essington Road from 200 South of Twin Oaks Drive to Glenwood Avenue; Belmont Avenue from Blackhawk Street to Tamarack Parkway; and North Raynor Avenue from Ingalls to Curtis

avenues.

• The Elwood-based Austin Tyler Construction came in with the lowest bid of $1.1 million for Black Road • The Carol Stream-based J. Congdon Sewer Services Inc. came in with the lowest bid of $665,525 for Nicholson Street • The Joliet-based P.T. Ferro Construction came in with the lowest bid of $803,999 for Essington Road • The Morris-based Brandt Builders Inc. came in with the lowest bid of $203,327 for Belmont Avenue.

• The Elwood-based Stip Brothers Excavating came in with the lowest bid of $249,302 for North Raynor Avenue.

The Black Road water main project will take place in conjuction with a resurfacing project, pending approval from the city council, Hock said.

In other news, the City Council could vote Tuesday to reclassify land near the northwest corner of Collins and Cass streets from residential to business to make way for a new Popeye’s Louisiana Kitchen as well as a Checkers hamburger restaurant.

Petitions submitted by deadline to restructure Joliet City Council

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A grassroots citizens group filed petitions by the required Monday deadline to place a ballot initiative before voters that calls for the political restructuring of the Joliet City Council.

The city clerk’s office received the petition about 1:15 p.m. Monday.

The group, Concerned Citizens of Joliet, wants to change the current City Council structure from five district seats and three at-large seats – a format that has been in

place since the 1950s – to eight district seats.

The group maintains that mixed district and at-large representation does not accurately or fairly reflect the city’s geography and population because too many council members reside in the same part of town.

Those opposed to the idea have cited several reasons for not changing, including that as of right now, residents can vote for five of the nine people on the council, whereas the new proposal would drop that to two people.

The group needed 1,500 sig-

natures to place the issue on the Nov. 4 ballot. While Monday was the last day to file petitions, Aug. 11 is the last day to file objections to the petitions.

If no one objects, the question needs to be submitted by the city to the Will County Clerk’s office by Aug. 28 to get on the ballot.

In its current form, the referendum question will be: “Shall The City of Joliet be divided into Eight Districts with one Council Person to be elected from each District, but with the Mayor to be elected from the City At Large.”

JOLIET – CN Railroad is set to be closed at Division Street starting for much of the week.

Division Street closed Monday and will remain closed at the crossing until the repair work is completed. The work is expected to be done by 6 p.m. Thursday. A detour will be posted and will direct traffic to Route 30, Gaylord Road and Hennepin Drive.

Questions should be called in to the CN Railroad call desk at 708-332-3160.

911 call about Hickory Street deaths played during first day of testimony

By BRIAN STANLEY

“Bethany saw and heard Terrence Rankins ask ...

‘Why are you doing this to me?’ and did nothing.”

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The shoes were the first thing Officer Brian Lanton saw when the door opened.

Then he saw the rest of the body.

Lanton testified Monday in the trial of Bethany McKee, who, along with Joshua Miner and Adam Landerman, is accused of killing Terrence Rankins and Eric Glover, both 22, on Jan. Bethany 10, 2013, in the McKee Hickory Street residence of her friend, Alisa Massaro.

Lanton said the second-floor apartment where the deaths occurred has a kitchenette at the door by the stairs, which he and Officer Bruce Trevillian opened Jan. 10, 2013, to see “a pair of Air Jordans, soles up, on the feet of a body ... laying on the kitchenette floor.”

Lanton testified the man’s body had been set on black plastic garbage bags and a plastic shopping bag had been placed over the victim’s head. Looking down the hall, the officers could see another victim laying on a bedroom floor, also with a plastic bag on his head.

“I then encountered an individual in the back bedroom sitting on a couch smoking a cigarette,” Trevillian testified. When the officer ordered him to stand up and show his hands, Joshua Miner told him “he’d killed the guy in the kitchen and Adam [Landerman] killed the guy in the bedroom,” Trevillian said.

Prosecutors have said McKee and Alisa Massaro lured the men to the 1100 block of North Hickory Street

Bethany McKee, William’s daughter, is charged with murder in the Jan. 10, 2013, deaths of Eric Glover and Terrence Rankins, both 22. BELOW: Mark Johnson, the brother of Eric Glover, speaks Monday to members of the media outside the Will County Courthouse in Joliet. with plans to rob them of money and drugs. Landerman and Miner allegedly strangled the victims to death.

All four suspects were initially charged with murder, but Massaro agreed to plead guilty to lesser charges and testify against the others. She was sentenced to 10 years in prison for robbery and concealing a homicide.

Landerman and Miner are awaiting separate trials.

Officer Michael DeVito testified Monday that he searched the basement and saw Landerman’s feet sticking out from behind some wooden paneling propped behind a doorway. DeVito said Landerman ignored his commands to come out until another officer came to back him up.

“He turned toward me with a grin on his face,” DeVito said.

Assistant Will County

State’s Attorney Tricia McKenna said Monday that McKee “desperately needed money” after being kicked out of her parents’ house. Rankins had purchased alcohol for the women before and they saw he had “a large amount of cash,” McKenna said.

Rankins arrived with his friend, Eric Glover, “expecting to party with” the

two women, but at a pre-arranged signal between them, the women left the room and Miner and Landerman attacked, McKenna said.

“Bethany saw and heard Terrence Rankins ask ...

‘Why are you doing this to me?’ and did nothing,” McKenna told Judge Gerald Kinney.

The robbers allegedly got

$120 they planned to use for gas, cigarettes and cocaine.

Defense attorney Chuck Bretz said there is no physical evidence McKee was involved in killing Glover and Rankins and she was merely present at the scene of the crime. “[McKee] could’ve been charged with obstructing justice or concealing a homicide,” but did not aid in the fatal robbery, Bretz said.

Police went to Massaro’s house because of a police dispatch call made by Bethany’s father that was played in court Monday. On the tape, William McKee asked for an officer to come to his house because he had information that Bethany was involved in a serious crime and hoped he was “doing the right thing.”

“She came to me and [said] there are two black males dead in a bathtub upstairs and ... need my help to show her and the others how to cut up bodies,” William McKee said during the call.

Nicole Jones, Eric Glover’s mother, left the courtroom with tears in her eyes after the call was played.

The trial’s first witness was McKee’s school friend Jennifer Ortega who was questioned for more than an hour about a Facebook conversation they had a week before the Jan. 10, 2013, slayings in which McKee wanted suggestions on how to get money.

The trial is scheduled to continue Tuesday.

Preservationists make case against Illiana

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com WILMINGTON – Gary Sullivan considers the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie a unique place with ecosystems that cannot be found anywhere else in the world.

It’s also a place that Sullivan, senior ecologist with The Wetlands Initiative, along with several other environmental group leaders, said is being threatened by the proposed Illiana Expressway toll road project. Those leaders said the highway would run along the south border of the tallgrass prairie and adversely impact the ecosystem and continuing restorative efforts.

The Illiana Expressway project is a four-lane highway that would run between Interstate 65 near Lowell, Indiana, and Interstate 55 near Wilimington, where Midewin is located. The expected cost of the project is $1.3 billion, with funding provided by Illinois, Indiana and private investors.

On Monday, Sullivan gave

Rob Winner – rwinner@shawmedia.com

Gary Sullivan of The Wetlands Initiative discusses Monday the importance of the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie in Wilmington. local media a tour of several habitats to explain the virtues of Midewin. Also along for the tour were members of Openlands and Chicago Wilderness, as were Environmental Law and Policy Center attorneys, who are representing several environmental groups in lawsuits to stop the Illiana Expressway development.

At one area that was restored from farmland after

more than a decade, Sullivan said the variety of plant species can be different from season to season. He said it’s the most diverse of the prairie restorations done thus far.

“This is sort of like an example of the promise of Midewin. This is what can be here,” he said.

The roughly 20,000-acre site is on the former Joliet Army Ammunition Plant where TNT was once produced for

the U.S. Army, according to the United States Forest Service, which administers Midewin. The site mostly consists of wet prairie, grassland, tallgrass prairie and some savanna. The land also is home to more than 100 bird species, 600 plants, 27 mammal and 53 fish species.

Howard Learner, executive director of the Environmental Law and Policy Center, said the Illiana Expressway would impact the ecosystem by having a tollway run along the southern boundary. A tollway also would increase the heavy amounts of truck traffic already happening in Will County. “[It would] take the amount of heavy trucks that are going today and put it on steroids,” he said.

Environmental Law and Policy Center attorneys are representing Sierra Club, Openlands and Midewin Heritage Association in two lawsuits against the Illiana Expressway project.

One lawsuit filed last year challenges a Tier 1 environ-

mental impact study done by the Federal Highway Administration and urges them to reconsider the environmental impact of the proposed tollway on lands such as Midewin.

Andrew Armstrong, an Environmental Law and Policy Center staff attorney, said the center hopes court decisions regarding the lawsuits are made by the end of the year.

Midewin is teeming with life and the wetlands in it have numerous birds and other species, said Stacy Meyers, Openlands policy coordinator. Some of the bird species that would be impacted by the Illiana Expressway include the growing population of Henslow’s sparrows, which nest along Route 53, she said.

“Having the safe refuge for all these species that would have no place other than here … yes that’s important,” she said. “But the people that come here. It’s also important to us. It’s important to people in our region to have this and to be able to understand this.”

Hurtado subpoenaed to testify before grand jury

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Plainfield Township Park District Commissioner Peter Hurtado said he has been served with a subpoena to appear before a grand jury to testify on allegations he used the park district for his own financial benefit.

The grand jury hearing is scheduled to take place Wednesday afternoon at the Will County Court Annex building, 57 N. Ottawa St. Hurtado said he was served the subpoena at his home Friday by Illinois State Police. A police sergeant told him the subpoena was “in regards to the allegations.”

“I’m looking forward to the grand jury,” Hurtado said, maintaining that the allegations were false. “I’ll go over there and tell the truth. After they hear what I have to say, they will know the truth.”

On Jan. 29, park district Vice President Janet Silosky publicly shared a series of events that implicated Hurta- Peter do in a scheme Hurtado to sell LED lights from his own business to the park district.

Silosky’s account includes meetings between her, Hur-

tado, Director of Communications Doug Booth, Commissioner Peter Steinys and former Executive Director Garrett Peck that suggest Hurtado directed purchases to be made from a company called Josue Solis & Associates.

According to invoices obtained by The Herald-News, the purchases include one High Bay 120-watt LED light set for $475 on Dec. 12 through Peck’s park district credit card.

A larger order of eight lights for $3,800 was bought from the business Jan. 8, via PayPal on parks maintenance employee Joe Masters’ district credit card. But a full refund was issued Jan. 16 for that order.

Another invoice was sent

by the company for 16 lights for $7,600, but no transaction occurred, according to park district documents.

Silosky said Josue Solis is the name of Hurtado’s daughter’s boyfriend. And that company appears to not exist anymore.

Hurtado denied any wrongdoing after Silosky revealed the narrative and immediately called for an investigation into the allegations.

The office of Will County State’s Attorney James Glasgow launched an investigation into the allegations, which the state police accepted Feb. 25.

According to filings connected with the case found on

the Will County Circuit Court website, there was a motion Feb. 25 to appoint a grand jury investigator.

There was another motion to appoint a grand jury investigator June 10.

Will County State’s Attorney spokesman Charles Pelkie declined to confirm or comment on the grand jury investigation. But said a grand jury meets in 12-week periods on Wednesdays.

“I’m glad that the investigation is moving forward,” park district President Mary Kay Ludemann said. “I look forward to everything being resolved so the park district doesn’t have this hanging over its head.”

Route 66 historian says truck traffic threatens Mother Road

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com The mounting truck traffic congestion – specifically on Route 53 – in Will County has Route 66 historian John Weiss worried.

The “nature and majesty” of the historic Mother Road – Route 53 coincides with Route 66 in parts of Will County – is threatened by 18-wheelers coming to and from the nearby trucking intermodals in Joliet and Elwood, Weiss wrote in a letter he sent to the village of Elwood last week.

“Route 53, from Joliet to Wilmington, … deserves better treatment. This stretch of road serves as the gateway to Historic Route 66, where the metropolitan landscape gives way to idyllic and quaint communities,” Weiss wrote in the letter. “Unfortunately for visitors and tourists – many of whom are traveling from overseas and visiting the U.S. for the first time – their first impression of small-town America is appalling and disappointing.”

Weiss, who serves on the Route 66 Association of Illinois’ preservation committee, told The Herald-News on Friday he was asked to write the letter in support of the village, but said his message is his own words and is sincere.

Tourist dollars will be lost if

nothing is done, Weiss said.

“Words spread quickly with social media. Of course, tourists are going to hit Chicago. World-class city. But from there, they have a choice: Either get on I-55 and bypass all this or come down into Joliet and through all this congestion,” Weiss said. “I, myself, I’d bypass it.”

Weiss said he’s concerned about how effective the county’s plans will be in transforming the area just south of Interstate 80 stretching to Braidwood into a tourist magnet for Route 66 visitors. It won’t happen as long as congestion continues, he said.

County Executive Larry Walsh said plans are moving forward with the Illinois 53 corridor, with congestion being part of the discussion.

“We are continuously working on trying to find solutions,” Walsh said. “We never intended truck traffic to be that heavy on Route 53.”

Jacque Engle, spokeswoman for CenterPoint Properties, the developer of the two intermodals, said in an email response the increase in trucks along Route 53 and Walter Strawn Drive also is because of Elwood’s decision several years ago to institute an overweight truck permit program.

“Elwood profited handsomely from it,” Engle said in the email. “It’s estimated the Vil-

lage collected several million dollars in new fees. In truth, Elwood’s own programs have also accelerated the growth of trucks on Route 53.”

Elwood only sells approximately 5,000 overweight permits per year and allows (up to) 350 trucks per day, according to an email response from the village via Scott Burnham, the village’s spokesman.

“The danger to Historic Route 66 tourist is not [350] overweight grain trucks traveling, between a grain elevator ...” the email states. “The danger to the Historic Illinois Route 66 tourist is the [10,000] trucks per day created by the CenterPoint development.”

In addition, the overweight truck permit money has a very strict and limited use, the email states.

The best long-term solution to removing trucks from Route 53 would be to build a bridge from Interstate 80 and Houbolt Road, Engle said. That would provide direct, shorter and more efficient access, she said.

Walsh said he’s been in talks with CenterPoint, Union Pacific, the state’s transportation department and other governmental bodies about the possibility of creating an I-80/ Houbolt Road interchange.

Where the funding will come from is unknown, but Walsh said there needs to be a commitment from all parties.

Second man charged in man set on fire incident JOLIET – A Joliet man is the second individual charged in connection with a June 19 incident when a 22-year-old man was set on fire.

Joseph Taylor, 18, of the 1300 block of Steven Smith Street, was booked Friday night into the Will County Adult Detention Facility and charged with aggravated battery resulting in great bodily harm.

He is being held on $250,000 bond.

Joliet police said Taylor’s arrest is in conJoseph nection with the Taylor June 19 incident when 20-year-old Dylan M. Altergott was charged with aggravated battery after he allegedly threw gasoline on a 22-year-old man he had an ongoing dispute with and set him on fire.

Poverty commission to Doctor Oz Show Guest Says: hold hearing in Kankakee “Try his Simple Trick to Defeat Almost Any Digestion Problem Instantly”

If you go

Frequent Dr Oz Guest, Bryce Wylde explains his simple trick that will make almost any bout of heartburn, acid-relux, constipation, gas, bloating, diarrhea, and other stomach problems go away fast

By Damian Wexler, Freelance Health Reporter ecently, alternative medicine expert Bryce Wylde, a frequent guest on the Dr. Oz show, revealed a simple secret that amazed millions who sufer with digestion nightmares. And people haven’t stopped talking about it since.

R

“I’d give anything to make it stop!” flect on advances made over the last year, and seek input from the public.

“When we fail to adequately prevent the issues surrounding extreme poverty, the cost to taxpayers is much higher than if we actually provide real solutions for the people,” Grundy County Housing Authority CEO Brent Newman said. “Sometimes I think people believe their voices don’t matter, but perhaps the idea they share is a really good one; it could change the lives of thousands of people. I hope both the local and public agencies will attend.”

The group is requesting testimony related to the progress made by the state in reducing extreme poverty, as well as suggestions for specific policy solutions the state should advance in the coming year.

hat’s what most people will tell you when asked about their digestive problems. “It’s just horrible says Ralph Burns, a former digestion victim. I was tortured for years by my Acid-Relux. Sometimes I’d almost pass out from the pain. My wife sufers with digestion problems too. If she eats one wrong thing, she spends hours stuck in the bathroom dealing with severe bouts of constipation or diarrhea.”

FDA Warns About Popular Antacids A recent FDA warning explained that excessive use of antacids could lead to an increased risk of hip, wrist, and spine fractures. Especially in people over the age of 50.

So when alternative medicine expert Bryce Wylde discussed an alternative on National TV, you can imagine how thrilled people were to ind out they could inally get relief without having to rely on Prevecid®, Nexium®, Prilosec® and other dangerous proton pump inhibitors. But now, according to Wylde, your stomach problems could be over by simply drinking a small amount of a tasty Aloe Vera extract.

It’s as simple as that!

Finally There’s Hope...

At irst, the thought of drinking aloe vera might make some people back away. But in fact, this delicious “digestion cocktail” is doing amazing things for people who sufer with stomach problems --- even if they’ve had them for years. Here’s how it works…

Stop Stomach Agony Your stomach naturally produces acid so strong, it can dissolve an aluminum spoon in just 30 minutes!

And when excess acid escapes into your esophagus, throat and stomach lining, it unleashes the scorching pain of Acid-Relux, heartburn, ulcers and more misery. Add the problems of stress, and “all heck breaks loose.”

Dr. Liza Leal, a well known expert on chronic pain management explains... “he AloeCure® can work genuine miracles. It bufers high acid levels with amazing speed. So your stomach feels completely at ease just moments after drinking it.” In fact, it could wipe out stomach pain, discomfort, and frantic runs to the bathroom.

Until Now, Little Could Be Done... ®

But “AloeCure can help virtually anyone. Even people with chronic stomach pain can feel better right away,” says Dr. Leal. And what’s really exciting is AloeCure® aids in keeping your digestive tract healthy, so intestinal distress stops coming back.

As Ralph Burns goes on to say, “I know AloeCure® never claimed to be a substitute for drug store products and is only meant to be a helpful supplement. Now though, AloeCure® is the only product I need for all my digestion issues”

Digestion Defender #1: Balances Stomach Acid Your irst line of defense is calcium malate. his natural acid bufer instantly sends stomach acid levels plunging. And holds acid levels down so they don’t return!

Digestion Defender #2: Instant, Soothing Relief

Doctor recommended AloeCure® may be the most important application ever discovered for digestive health!

AloeCure® is brimming with polysaccharides, a “wonder” compound that gently coats the throat, esophagus and stomach, carrying instant relief to cells scorched by excess acid.

Here’s What Doctors Are Saying!

AloeCure® is backed by important scientiic studies that conirm... aloe calms stomach acid and allows your body to heal itself.

Dr. Liza Leal, M.D & Chief Medical Oicer at Meridian Medical. says, “hat’s why I recommend it to patients who sufer from bouts of heartburn, AcidRelux, ulcers, and irritable bowel syndrome...”

Dr. Santiago Rodriguez agrees. “Just two ounces of AloeCure® reduces the acids in your stomach by ten times.”

Francisco DeWeever, a Certiied Nutritional Microscopist, “My patients report their IBS, Crohn’s, Colitis, Constipation, Acid-Relux and a host of other digestive problems have all but disappeared.”

After conducting an unpaid investigation about AloeCure® claims and success stories, Bryce Wylde commented that pure Aloe Vera extract like AloeCure® may be the most important application ever discovered for digestive health. He stands wholeheartedly behind his study into natural and complementary health and to this day, he receives no compensation from the sale of AloeCure® or any other product.

Safe And Easy To Use With no sugar, no stimulants, and zero calories, AloeCure® is safe, all-natural and has absolutely no side efects. It’s tasty, drug-free, and simple to use. Just drink two ounces, once in the morning, and once at night, and start enjoying immediate life- changing relief!

KANKAKEE – The Illinois Commission on the Elimination of Poverty has scheduled a public hearing for Thursday in Kankakee where members hope to gather people from Grundy, Kankake and Will counties to give testimony on Illinois’ poverty issues.

“In the past we have urged people impacted by poverty, or organizations that are addressing poverty to attend our public hearings,” said Kim Drew, project manager of Economic Security Policy with Heartland Alliance for Human Needs and Human Rights.

“We want to know what poverty looks like in the Kankakee and surrounding areas like Grundy and Will counties.”

The Illinois Commission on the Elimination of Poverty is an organization focused on the elimination of poverty in Illinois in a manner consistent with international human rights standards, according to its website www. poverty.illinois.gov.

The commission is working to implement a Poverty Elimination Strategy, which aims to cut in half the number of people in Illinois who live in extreme poverty.

the district acquired Hammel Woods in 2010, so the changes have been jarring for some.

“It’s been a hard transition for people who like to have their lawns manicured down the hill,” said Glen Gornik, who lives in the River Glen subdivision. “It’s tough to get used to.”

Upon hearing complaints from residents that the district didn’t mow the grass frequently enough, the district agreed earlier this summer to mow the boundaries every two weeks.

But even that hasn’t satisfied everyone.

Ken Rakowski, 78, said when the district staff mowed about a week ago – as promised – they left “a mess of debris” along the edges of a drainage ditch located behind Rakowski’s home.

“To me, it looks terrible. This water doesn’t flow.

There’s scum along the edges,” Rakowski said. “It attracts mosquitoes big enough to carry you away.”

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A teenager was arrested Friday after he allegedly told police he would go on a shooting spree at the Will County Courthouse.

Kevin E. Martin, 19, of the first block of East Clinton Street, was arrested on charges of disorderly conduct. He is being held on $1.5 million bond.

According to reports, Martin has had several previous run-ins with police and called the sheriff’s investigation office about 11 a.m. when he spoke to a secretary, according to Will County Sheriff’s Deputy Chief Ken Kaupas.

“He made some disparaging remarks and threats to her, then said ‘I’ll shoot you and while I’m at it, I’ll shoot up the whole courthouse,’ ” Kaupas said.

Kaupas said the secretary, a former dispatcher, asked Martin why he was so angry and he said he “just hated po-

lice.”

Detectives were able to get the phone number for the call and trace it back to Martin, who was located Friday night on the north side of Chicago, Kaupas said. He had no firearms with him when he was arrested.

Kaupas said deputies provided additional security for judges and state’s attorney employees leaving their offices Friday afternoon.

“We took the threat very seriously and are grateful the sheriff’s department acted immediately,” Judge John Anderson said. “I think this underscores the importance of improving security measures in the 50-year-old courthouse.”

The courthouse has metal detectors, X-ray machines and sheriff’s deputies at the entrance. Courthouse personnel recently have been attending mandatory training sessions – the most recent was held Friday – if an “active shooter” attacked. www.ILValleyTransitPlan.org

So far, so good.

That’s what Marcy DeMauro, executive director for the Forest Preserve District of Will County, is saying about the response received following the district’s decision earlier this year to crack down on property owners illegally using public land.

“So far, there’s been pretty darn good compliance overall.

It’s going as best as can be expected,” DeMauro said Friday.

This spring, the district surveyed boundaries along 12 of its 82 preserves. Officials discovered 214 encroachments, most of which were homeowners mowing, while others dumped trash, or built permanent structures, gardens or fencing.

The first round of letters were sent out in June, informing property owners they were encroaching. In some instances, DeMauro said staff has been

working with those who may need more time getting rid of permanent structures. For example, she said, one Homer Glen homeowner caught having built a wooden boat pier on district land – with an accompanied “No Trespassing” sign – was recently given a 60-day extension to tear it down.

So far, no citations have been given out, DeMauro said, but that could change once additional letters are sent out and the district still hasn’t heard from residents or the deadline extensions lapse.

“Our intent in all this was not to be punitive. We wanted to give people plenty of notice,” DeMauro said. “Our intent was to see these changes happen.”

Some homeowners in Joliet’s River Glen subdivision are still having difficulty adjusting to the changes with their backyards abutting the district’s Hammel Woods preserve just north of Black Road.

Many had been mowing district land for several years until

Coal City saving funds to renovate Broadway Street

By JESSICA BOURQUE jbourque@shawmedia.com COAL CITY – The village of Coal City will begin saving funds for a future project to renovate Broadway Street.

The village will need to come up with $400,000 by 2018 in order to receive $2 million in federal grant money that will be put toward the Broadway restoration project, Coal City Administrator Matt Fritz said.

The Broadway improve-

ments will stretch from Route 113 to the BNSF railroad track, but actual construction on the project won’t begin for at least five years, Fritz said.

“This is going to be a complete reconstruction of Broadway. There’s going to be a new layout,” Fritz said. “This also complies with the phase one analysis included in our comprehensive plan that was adopted this past spring.”

The $2 million will be awarded through the Will

County Governmental League, a federally-funded planning organization that helps municipalities plan and finance their transportation improvement projects.

Coal City is located mostly in Grundy County, but a portion is located in Will County.

The governmental league is allotted money from the federal government, which it divides among its municipal members, or those that belong to the organization through a membership.

“If you don’t belong to an [metropolitan planning organization], you have to go down to the state and compete with everyone else for funding,” Fritz said. “But we’re a member so we have to compete within their pool of members.”

Mayor Neal Nelson said moving forward with Broadway restoration has been a longtime goal for the village, but it struggled to find the funding.

Recently, Coal City re-

ceived a $100,000 grant to complete the engineering phase of the project. By completing that engineering, the village is now eligible for the governmental league’s transportation funding.

“We’ll be able to get on the list now to receive the federal funding through the Will County Government League,” Nelson said.

Coal City has been a member of the Will County Governmental League since 2007, when Nelson took office.

Coal City sewer project estimated to cost more than expected

By JESSICA BOURQUE jbourque@shawmedia.com COAL CITY – Bids for a project connecting Prairie Oaks subdivision to Coal City’s sanitation plant came in about $230,000 higher than expected, prompting further delays in the project timeline.

The subdivision’s current sewage plant is not working properly because of problems in its original construction.

The defunct plant is causing

health and sanitary issues for homeowners.

The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency issued a mandate to fix the problem, which will involve connecting the homes to Coal City’s main sewage plant and decommissioning the subdivision’s current lift station.

But it appears connecting the subdivision to Coal City’s sanitary system will be more costly than originally planned, according to the bids

the village received.

“Those were much more expensive than we expected so we’re going to try and re-bid the project,” Coal City Administrator Matt Fritz said. “The lift station project was not included in this bid, so we’re going to try including that portion of the project this time.”

Currently, the village of Coal City, Prairie Oaks residents and state grants are contributing most of the money needed to complete the nearly

$1 million project.

Coal City was awarded a $329,000 community block grant from the state in 2011 to help pay for the project.

The remaining $596,000 will be funded during the next 10 years through a property tax agreement between the homeowners and the village.

The deadline to spend the grant money is coming up this September, which means the village needs to file for a grant extension since the next set of

bids likely won’t be accepted and approved by that time.

“We will need to file an extension, because obviously, with the numbers we’ve got, the board does not feel comfortable moving forward with this yet,” Coal City Mayor Neal Nelson said Wednesday.

Despite the unexpected high costs, Fritz said he is confident that Prairie Oaks will eventually be connected to the village’s main sewer plant.

Gun control advocate Jim Brady dies

By DOUGLASS K. DANIEL The Associated Press WASHINGTON – A major trait that endeared Jim Brady to the Washington press corps was his sense of humor, especially when he made fun of his own boss.

When Ronald Reagan was campaigning for president in 1980, Reagan drew scorn from environmentalists for saying that trees were a greater source of pollution than cars. Aboard the campaign plane, Brady pointed at a forest fire in the distance and yelled, “Killer trees! Killer trees!” to the great amusement of reporters.

After the election, Reagan’s advisers appeared hesitant to appoint Brady press secretary. Nancy Reagan was said to feel the job required someone younger and better-looking than the 40-year-old, moonfaced, balding Brady.

“I come before you today not as just another pretty face but out of sheer talent,” Brady told reporters. A week later, he got the job.

Brady, who died Monday at 73, would need humor and much more after March 30, 1981. On that day John Hinckley Jr. attempted to assassinate Reagan outside the Washington Hilton Hotel just two months into the new president’s term. Reagan nearly died from a chest wound. Three others, including Brady, were struck by bullets from Hinckley’s handgun.

Shot in the head, Brady lived through hours of delicate surgery and then many more operations over the years. But he never recovered the normal use of his limbs and was often in a wheelchair. Besides partial paralysis from brain damage, he suffered short-term memory impairment, slurred speech and constant pain.

Still, along with his wife, Sarah, he went on to become the face and as much as possible the voice of the gun-control movement in the United States.

A federal law requiring background checks for handgun buyers bears his name, as does the White House press briefing room.

Mrs. Reagan, the former first lady, said Monday she was “deeply saddened to learn

AP file photo

President-elect Ronald Reagan introducing James Brady as his press secretary Jan. 6, 1981, in Washington.

Brady, the affable, witty press secretary who survived a devastating head wound in the 1981 assassination attempt on President Ronald Reagan and undertook a personal crusade for gun control, died Monday. He was 73. of Jim Brady’s passing today.

Thinking of him brings back so many memories – happy and sad – of a time in all of our lives when we learned what it means to ‘play the hand we’re dealt.’”

The lasting public image of Brady came from the worst day of his life. A news clip of the 1981 shooting, replayed often on television and in documentaries, showed him sprawled on the sidewalk after several Secret Service agents had hustled the wounded president into his limousine and others had pounced on Hinckley.

Although Brady returned to the White House only briefly, a year after the shooting, he was allowed to keep the title of presidential press secretary – and the $89,500 annual salary as assistant to the president for press relations – until Reagan left office.

The TV replays did take a toll on Brady. He told The Associated Press years later that he relived the moment each time.

“I want to take every bit of [that] film ... and put them in a cement incinerator, slosh them with gasoline and throw a lighted cigarette in,” he said.

Officials at St. Elizabeths Hospital in Washington, where Hinckley is a patient, have said that the mental illness that led him to shoot Reagan in an ef-

fort to impress actress Jodie Foster has been in remission for decades.

Brady was a strong Republican from an early age. As a boy of 12 in Centralia, Illinois, where he was born on Aug. 29, 1940, he distributed election literature for Dwight D. Eisenhower.

In a long string of political jobs, Brady worked for Sen. Everett M. Dirksen of Illinois, Sen. William V. Roth Jr. of Delaware and John Connally, the former Texas governor who ran for president in 1979. When Connally dropped out, Brady joined Reagan’s campaign as director of public affairs and research.

Previously, he had worked in the administrations of Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford: as special assistant to the secretary of Housing and Urban Development, as special assistant to the director of the Office of Management and Budget, and as an assistant to the defense secretary.

He was divorced from the former Sue Beh when, in 1973, he courted Sarah Jane Kemp, the daughter of an FBI agent who was working with him in a congressional office.

Sarah Brady became involved in gun-control efforts in 1985, and later chaired

Handgun Control Inc., but Brady took a few more years to join her, and Reagan did not endorse their efforts until 10 years after he was shot. Reagan’s surprise endorsement – he was a longtime National Rifle Association member and an opponent of gun control laws – helped turn the tide in Congress.

“They’re not going to accuse him of being some bed-wetting liberal, no way can they do that,” said Brady, who had become an active lobbyist for the bill.

The Brady law required a five-day wait and background check before a handgun can be sold. In November 1993, as President Bill Clinton signed the bill into law, Brady said: “Every once in a while, you need to wake up and smell the propane. I needed to be hit in the head before I started hitting the bricks.”

At the time of the 30th anniversary of the shooting, the Bradys told NPR they were no longer Republicans. “Times change,” Sarah Brady said.

President Barack Obama described Brady as a White House legend, who turned “the events of that terrible afternoon into a remarkable legacy of service.” Thanks to Brady and the law bearing his name,

“an untold number of people are alive today who otherwise wouldn’t be,” the president said in a statement.

Dan Gross, president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, said in a statement that because of Brady’s work on gun control “there are few Americans in history who are as directly responsible for saving as many lives as Jim.” In its own statement, the National Rifle Association said it extended “heartfelt condolences” to Brady’s family.

Clinton awarded Brady the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1996. In 2000, the press briefing room at the White House was renamed in his honor.

The following year, Handgun Control Inc. was renamed the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.

Clinton said Monday that Brady “transformed his own personal tragedy into an opportunity to inspire change – for more than three decades he and Sarah encouraged all of us to create a more just and secure nation, free from handgun violence.”

The men and women who also stood at the podium facing the press corps described Brady as a “friend and mentor,” a “selfless public servant,” and a man who did his job with the “highest integrity.”

“Jim Brady defined the role of the modern White House press secretary,” said current White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest and former press secretaries Jay Carney, Robert Gibbs, Dana Perino, Scott McClellan, Ari Fleischer, Jake Siewert, Joe Lockhart, Mike McCurry, Dee Dee Myers, Marlin Fitzwater, and Ron Nessen.

Brady also served as vice chair of the National Organization on Disability and co-chair of the National Head Injury Foundation.

Brady died in Alexandria, Virginia. Survivors include his wife; a son, Scott; and a daughter, Melissa.

“We are heartbroken to share the news that our beloved Jim “Bear” Brady has passed away after a series of health issues,” Brady’s family said in a statement. It said they were “so thankful to have had the opportunity to say their farewells.”

Illinois lawmaker pleads guilty in federal court

CHICAGO – An Illinois lawmaker who faced nearly 20 federal bank-fraud charges that could have landed him in prison for decades pleaded guilty Monday to a single misdemeanor tax count for shortchanging the Internal Revenue Service of $3,700.

As part of a plea deal, which prosecutors didn’t immediately explain, state Rep. LaShawn Ford pleaded guilty to one count of delivering a false federal income tax return for 2007. The Chicago Democrat had initially pleaded not guilty to far more serious charges that each carried sentences of up to $1 million in fines and 30 years in prison.

But federal prosecutors said Monday they would dismiss all the felony counts at Ford’s sentencing on Nov. 11. The misdemeanor charge carries a maximum sentence of one year in prison and a $100,000 fine.

Ford originally faced eight felony counts of bank fraud and nine counts of submitting false information to the bank. A felony conviction would have resulted in Ford losing his seat in the Illinois Legislature.

“This is a tremendous result,” Ford’s attorney, Thomas Durkin, said after the hearing in Chicago. “[The plea deal] permits him ... to get on with his life.”

Pilot makes emergency landing on Illinois roadway

HARTSBURG – Authorities say a Springfield pilot flying home from a Wisconsin air show made an emergency landing on a

highway in Logan County.

Illinois State Police say pilot Roger L. Thompson landed his 1985 homebuilt Pitts S-2A airplane on Old Route 121 on Sunday about 2 miles south of Hartsburg. Police say Thompson’s plane had an unknown mechanical problem. There were no injuries.

Thompson was on his way to Springfield from the Experimental Aircraft Association AirVenture Oshkosh.

Thompson told The State Journal-Register at the scene that he considers it “a successful off-airport landing.” Illinois State Police responded, and the airplane was towed from the roadway.

Illinois State Police say the Federal Aviation Administration and National Transportation were notified and will investigate.

Hartsburg is about 40 miles north of Springfield.

U.S. government had role in Ebola drug given aid workers The Associated Press Two American aid workers infected with Ebola are getting an experimental drug so novel it has never been tested for safety in humans and was only identified as a potential treatment earlier this year, thanks to a longstanding research program by the U.S. government and the military.

The workers, Nancy Writebol and Dr. Kent Brantly, are improving, although it’s impossible to know whether the treatment is the reason or they are recovering on their own, as others who have survived Ebola have done.

Brantly is being treated at a special isolation unit at Atlanta’s Emory University Hospital, and Writebol was expected to be flown there Tuesday in the same specially equipped plane that brought Brantly.

They were infected while working in Liberia, one of four West African nations dealing with the world’s largest Ebola outbreak.

On Monday, the World Health Organization said the death toll had increased from 729 to 887 deaths in Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Nigeria, and that more than 1,600 people have been infected.

In a worrisome development, the Nigerian Health Minister said a doctor who had helped treat Patrick Sawyer, the Liberian-American man who died July 25 days after arriving in Nigeria, has been confirmed to have the deadly disease.

Tests are pending for three other people who also treated Sawyer and are showing symptoms.

There is no vaccine or specific treatment for Ebola, but several are under development.

The experimental treatment the U.S. aid workers are getting is called ZMapp and is made by Mapp Biopharma-

It is aimed at boosting the immune system’s efforts to fight off Ebola and is made from antibodies produced by lab animals exposed to parts of the virus.

In a statement, the company said it was working with LeafBio of San Diego, Defyrus Inc. of Toronto, the U.S. government and the Public Health Agency of Canada on development of the drug, which was identified as a possible treatment in January.

The statement said very little of the drug is available and they are “cooperating with appropriate government agencies to increase production as quickly as possible,” but gives no details on who else might receive it or when.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration must grant permission to use experimental treatments in the United States, but the FDA does not have authority over the use of such a drug in other countries, and the aid workers were first treated in Liberia.

An FDA spokeswoman said she could not confirm or deny FDA granting access to any

experimental therapy for the aid workers while in the U.S. Writebol, 59, has been in isolation at her home in Liberia since she was diagnosed last month.

She’s now walking with assistance and has regained her appetite, said Bruce Johnson, president of SIM USA, the Charlotte, North Carolina-based group that she works for in Africa.

Writebol has received two doses of the experimental drug so far, but Johnson was hesitant to credit the treatment for her improvement.

“Ebola is a tricky virus and one day you can be up and the next day down. One day is not indicative of the outcome,” he said. But “we’re grateful this medicine was available.”

Brantly, 33, who works for the international relief group Samaritan’s Purse, also was said to be improving. Besides the experimental dose he got in Liberia, he also received a unit of blood from a 14-yearold boy, an Ebola survivor, who had been under his care.

That seems to be aimed at giving Brantly antibodies the boy may have made to the virus.

ANOTHER VIEW

Cable customers lacking leverage When you have a problem with your cable service, there’s a handy “800” number to call.

But getting actual help ... ah, that can be another challenge entirely.

Last month, a man got so fed up with a Comcast service call that he recorded it and posted it online, where it went viral. In response, the chagrined cable giant said it would have the employee “personally apologize.”

“We are investigating this situation and will take quick action,” said the response from Comcast Cable Senior Vice President Tom Karinshak.

Note the absence of a promise to correct the problem. And sadly, note the absence of any outside regulatory pressure to do so.

The customer, Ryan Block, sent back a priceless reply to Comcast: “I hope the quick action you take is a thorough evaluation of your culture and policies, and not the termination of the rep.”

“We can, and will, do better,” Comcast Cable Chief Operating Officer Dave Watson pledged in a later message.

Unfortunately, customer service complaints aren’t limited to one big cable company. Frustration is widespread among the limited providers, nationally.

It wasn’t supposed to be this way. As cable and telecom services evolved and were deregulated in recent years, the mantra was that competition would thwart monopolistic practices, yielding more choices and happier customers.

The reality, so far, is somewhat different. It has become easier to find alternative access to TV, but “high-speed” Internet service in many communities comes from a single cable company.

The first step in dealing with a service problem, of course, is to call the cable company.

Often, this works out OK once you get through the “press 1, press 2,” “call failed” gantlet.

But if the response has you steamed – say, for example, if six different customer reps tell you it will be at least four days before a service slot opens to restore your “bundled” cable, phone and Internet services – what then?

It would be nice to know that providers of such important communication services would hold themselves to a high standard – and that if they fell short, someone would hold the companies accountable.

But when the providers have more leverage than the consumers, good luck with that.

THE FIRST AMENDMENT

Quinn campaign ad not likely to change minds Gov. Pat Quinn’s new TV ad is 60 seconds of one positive message after another.

“Pat Quinn sees problems, takes action and gets the job done,” the ad claims. “Now, Illinois is making a comeback,” it continues.

But the spot is being slammed by longtime campaign insiders in both parties as “spitting in the wind.”

For instance, a Paul Simon Public Policy Institute poll in June found that a mere 30 percent of Illinoisans thought the state was on the right track, while a very strong 60 percent majority thought Illinois was on the wrong track.

And an infamous poll taken

by Gallup in April found that 50 percent of Illinoisans would move to a different state if given the chance. We were first in the

VIEWS Rich Miller country on that response, according to Gallup. Just 25 percent of Minnesotans, by contrast, felt the same way.

In other words, a positive TV ad campaign is not very likely to change many minds. Way too many people simply hate the way things are going here.

Instead, Democratic critics have been arguing behind the scenes to abandon positivity in the very near future and launch a full-on, brutal assault against Bruce Rauner as soon as possible.

And quite a few experienced Republican operatives were scratching their heads at the ad, saying they highly doubted it would

move any numbers at all.

The Quinn campaign obviously tested that initial message with focus groups and polling. So, hey, maybe they’re right. But when’s the last time you heard someone say they were proud to live in this state or that things were really starting to turn around?

Meanwhile, the Quinn folks are reportedly hoping to drive up turnout by more than 200,000 votes with the non-binding minimum wage referendum this fall, which asks voters if they support a $10 per hour minimum wage.

That turnout projection has long caused much consternation behind the scenes among people who believe it’s entirely unrealistic. What the Quinnsters are hoping to do has never been done before, critics point out.

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

Landscaping Needs Special Care SPONSORED BY

By DIANE KRIEGER SPIVAK When summer hits Chicagoland, the heat index can wreak havoc on your landscaping.

While this summer has been a pretty rainy one, you need to be prepared for dry spells, which could come at any time. hat’s when your landscaping needs extra care to look its best.

During those dry spells grass will go into a dormant stage and turn brown, and unless you want to end up with a dry, dead lawn, mow your grass at a high level, 2 1/2 to 3 inches. Fear not, it will return to its green color with suicient rainfall.

To keep your plants from wilting give them a good soaking.

A light sprinkling just won’t do. he water will just evaporate in the hot summer sun. And on that note, always make sure to water early in the day or later in the evening so your plants can soak up the water before it evaporates.

If you normally fertilize your

lawn, don’t do it during the hot summer months. Save it for early fall, around September. Also, save the herbicides for cooler weather.

Another step to keep your landscaping looking good is to make sure you remove weeds before they produce seeds so you don’t end up inadvertently sewing a new crop of weeds for next year.

Don’t forget your potted plants!

Plants in containers lose moisture far quicker than plants in the ground. Make sure you soak them, as well.

Mulch is essential during hot weather to help plants retain moisture and keep weeds at bay. Use commercial mulch, grass clippings or straw, even on potted plants.

To some Democrats, that Rauner internal turnout projection validates their theory of a turnout spike. They believe that early voting, same day registration and other new “tools” will assist them in reaching their goal.

The Quinn campaign’s projections rely heavily on a record off-year turnout, even though the national and state headwinds are rapidly nearing hurricane force levels and Democratic interest is quite low.

Democrats are hoping to spend as much as $5 million on the minimum wage project to drive otherwise nonmotivated “base” voters to go to the polls. U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin’s campaign is reportedly in full agreement and pressure from both Durbin and Quinn has for now forced

the Chicago City Council to delay a vote on its own $13 minimum wage ordinance.

The cold calculation was that a $13 an hour ordinance passed in September would undermine the Democrats’ $10 an hour efforts in the fall campaign.

On the other side of the fence, Bruce Rauner’s campaign has calculated a more than 300,000 voter turnout increase just to be on the safe side.

Schaumburg’s Valadez had 6 RBIs through first 8 innings

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Things started out rough for the Joliet Slammers in Monday’s series finale against Schaumburg and didn’t get much better as the Frontier League game progressed.

The Boomers used a first-inning grand slam to jump out to a 6-0 lead after half an inning.

Joliet collected single runs in the first, second and fourth innings to try to stay in the contest but Schaumburg ended the drama by scoring seven runs in the sixth to grab a 16-3 lead.

The contest was only in the ninth inning at press time with Schaumburg up, 16-4.

Schaumburg’s Michael Valadez smacked the first-inning grand slam and was 3 for 5 with six RBIs through the game’s first eight innings.

Also for the Boomers, Tony Delmonico hit two homers and was 3 for 5 with four RBIs with one inning remaining.

In the first, Joliet’s Max Casper and Russell Moldenhauer doubled to bring in the first run and an inning later, Adam Giacalone double and eventually scored to make it 7-2.

The Slammers scored a run in the fourth when Casper doubled home JD Dorgan. Then in the sixth, Adrian English scored on a fielder’s choice.

The Slammers are off for the next two days before heading to Evansville for three games in two days before returning home Saturday against Southern Illinois.

Providence grad in 2nd season as Sox’s full-time, left-handed batting practice pitcher VIEWS Dick Goss

• Tuesday, August 5, 2014

Mike Kashirsky knew he had a dream job as the left-handed batting practice pitcher for the White Sox. This season, however, it has gotten even better.

The reason is the 1996 Providence graduate has had daily contact with Sox Mike Kashirsky rookie slugger Jose Abreu.

He throws batting practice to him on a regular basis. While the rest of the baseball world marvels at Abreu, Kashirsky sees up close why he is on the pedestal.

“He’s pretty unbelievable, to say the least,” Kashirsky said. “He has a pretty typical routine but what defines him is how he sticks to it. He’s very disciplined. Even if he gets a pitch inside, if he is up there trying to hit it hard the other way, he does it. He is pretty amazing to watch.”

BEARS TRAINING CAMP

BEARS NOTEBOOK

22 BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush BOURBONNAIS – In a summer full of hope and optimism, Monday was a day for the Bad News Bears.

A practice set for 3 p.m., scheduled weeks earlier, was moved to 11 a.m. with barely two hours notice because of a threat of inclement weather.

Nobody’s fault really, and probably in everyone’s best interest. But that didn’t make the scores of fans who began arriving around 1 – only to be told they missed practice – any happier.

What they missed was a great deal Up next worse.

One of the few fears for Preseason, Philadelphia at this offense is and has Bears, 7 p.m. been the lack Friday, Fox, of depth at AM-780, all the skill 105.9-FM positions, particularly receiver.

Last year’s seventh-round draft choice, Marquess Wilson, had been handed the third receiver spot, deservedly or not, and was being counted on perhaps more that any other player on the roster to be an emerging star.

His play had been erratic in camp to date, occasionally star-like and at other times invisible.

Early in Monday’s practice, he tried to go the star route, laying out completely for a ball Jay Cutler ever-so-slightly overthrew just short of the end zone. After landing on the ball and his right shoulder, Wilson will miss at least the next six weeks or so, possibly longer, with a fractured collarbone.

Wilson, his right arm in a sling, explained after practice: “I was just trying to make a play. It’s an opportunity. Me being a receiver, I saw the ball and in my mind I said, ‘Go get it.’ “ The problem, according to coach Marc Trestman, is that diving for balls in practice is something he teaches his guys

BOURBONNAIS – The buzz surrounding Bears No. 3 receiver Marquess Wilson throughout the offseason and first week of training camp disappeared almost instantly Monday, when he suffered a broken clavicle while diving for a pass from Jay Cutler.

No immediate timetable was given for Wilson’s return, but a best-case scenario likely would have him out at least 4-6 weeks.

The play represented what had the Bears so excited about Wilson – speed to get behind cornerback Charles Tillman and a large catching radius to get his hands on an overthrow – but also a reminder of why coach Marc Trestman constantly emphasizes staying off the ground in camp.

“That’s the hardest part about coaching in practice,” said a clearly disappointed Trestman after Monday’s practice, moved from 3 p.m. to 11 a.m. because of expected inclement weather that never arrived. “You hear us say it all the time, ‘Stay off the ground, stay off the ground.’ And diving for balls is one of the most difficult things not to do when you’re a competitive player.”

Wilson caught only two passes as a seventh-round rookie last season, but seemed poised for a breakthrough after a strong offseason in which he worked with Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery and others in Miami.

“It is (frustrating),” said Wilson, wearing a sling on his right shoulder, “but … you can’t be down on it.

You’ve just got to feed off of this and then come back even stronger. That’s what my plan is to do, come back stronger when I get healthy and keep working.”

Eric Weems and Chris Williams both have made plays in camp and will have a chance to earn the No. 3 role.

Free-agent acquisition Josh Morgan has the most NFL experience among the reserve wideouts (199 career receptions), but he’s been quiet in Bourbonnais.

Tempers flare: The most tense scuffle of camp occurred between tight end Martellus Bennett (6-foot-6, 265 pounds) and nickel cornerback Kyle Fuller (6-0, 190 pounds).

In a red zone drill, Fuller brought down Bennett by the shoulder pads after breaking up a pass. Bennett immediately bounced up and went after the rookie, first shoving, then body slamming Fuller to the ground. Marshall quickly got in the face of Bennett, before Trestman ended practice abruptly.

Special teams installment: The Bears added several new wrinkles to special teams drills, including onside kicks, free kicks and field goal returns.

In the more traditional drills, Weems and Sherrick McManis were first-team gunners on punts; Ryan Mundy and Kelvin Hayden lined up outside on kickoffs.

Attendance report: Safeties Chris Conte (shoulder) and Craig Steltz (groin) remain on the physically unable to perform list. Cornerback Tim Jennings (quadriceps) and offensive lineman Eben Britton (hamstring) also remained out.

Defensive end Jared Allen and running back Shaun Draughn were again excused for personal reasons.

Highlights: Before his injury, Wilson had the day’s biggest completion, a go route in which he beat Tillman before running under a well-placed Cutler sideline throw. … Cornerback Isiah Frey notched the defense’s only takeaway, picking off a telegraphed throw over the middle by Jimmy Clausen. … Alshon Jeffery showed off his strong hands on two sideline throws, including high-pointing a Cutler pass over Hayden to move the chains on third-and-long.

‘I COULDN’T EVEN SLEEP IN THE BED’ Minooka woman battles hoarding, Grundy County Health Department has program to help

By JEANNE MILLSAP Shaw Media Correspondent

M

INOOKA – When in her teens and 20s, Belinda Coley of Minooka was physically active and always on the move.

Her favorite activity was roller skating, and she frequented the rinks in Coal City and Morris. Coley also took pride in her home.

“I was an immaculate housekeeper.”

Somehow things spun out of control, and her home slowly grew more unkempt. Finally, Coley admitted she was a hoarder. In December 2010, her family was profiled on the A&E TV series, “Hoarders.”

“I don’t know how it all started,” Coley started.

The story is common with hoarders. Once a hoarding situation begins, according to Grundy County Health Department mental health therapist Melissa Wasko, it can snowball into an unmanageable situation.

“As it develops,” Wasko said, “it can become isolating, and when that happens, their things become even more important to them.”

Wasko said no one knows exactly what causes hoarding disorder. It may have a genetic component, she said. A traumatic event may be another trigger, she said. Other risk factors, according to the American Psychiatric Association, are having a brain injury and other psychological disorders.

At the health department, Wasko conducts a weekly group therapy session for hoarders called, “Caged

by Clutter.” Therapists at the health department also treat the disorder, she said.

The health department is in the process of organizing a work group to examine the area hoarding issue from both a clinical and legal standpoint.

“We’re asking ourselves how we can offer support in the best way possible,” Wasko said.

That includes helping hoarders in a medical setting – as well as in their homes – and working with first responders to train them how to recognize signs of the disorder when a hoarder needs emergency care.

Entrances may be blocked with boxes or stacks of items, gurneys may not be able to pass through cluttered hallways and responders themselves

Hoarding disorder is recognized as a diagnosable psychological condition.

According to the American Psychiatric Association, a hoarder will excessively save items that others may view as worthless and have persistent difficulty parting with possessions.

The resulting clutter disrupts their ability to use their living or work spaces.

Wasko said an estimated 1 to 2 percent of the population has significant hoarding issues, which would mean 500 to 1,000 people in Grundy County.

It’s usually a hidden condition, one kept behind doors. Hoarders don’t often seek out care, she said, and experience guilt and anxiety as a result.

For Coley, hoarding began with an accident that left her in severe pain.

Prescription pain medicine was little help.

“I was a complete vegetable,” Coley said. “I couldn’t even drive.”

Coley eventually discontinued the medicine, but by that time, the con-

PUZZLES SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

The signal that helps but needs watching

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Bob Hope said, “If you watch a game, it’s fun. If you play it, it’s recreation. If you work at it, it’s golf.”

As you watch the cards closely, you play well and find bridge to be fun. The work is training your partner also to pay close attention.

Today’s deal can either be a 50-50 bet or a sure thing, depending upon the skill level of East and West. How should they card to defeat three no-trump? West leads the spade five. Declarer takes East’s king with his ace and attacks diamonds.

North added one point for his decent five-card diamond suit and raised to three no-trump.

South starts with only five top tricks: two spades (given the first trick) and three clubs. However, four more winners are readily available from the diamonds. So, if East has the diamond ace, the contract is guaranteed. If West has that ace, maybe he will not find a heart shift; or if he does, it will not prove lethal.

Here, though, as you can see, if West leads the heart jack, then when he gets in with his diamond ace, the contract can be defeated.

But how does West know to lead a heart rather than a club?

West should duck the first diamond to get some help from his partner. East should play first the two to show an odd number. But on the second round, he could play either the eight or the three.

By following suit with the eight, the higher card, East is expressing interest in the higher-ranking of hearts and clubs, the two unplayed suits. This points West in the right direction – if he is watching.

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips expectant parents should consider making the name of the deceased their baby’s middle name instead of first name.

Dear Abby: During my teens, I was diagnosed with depression and institutionalized following a suicide attempt. Depression is something I live with daily. Unfortunately, my parents and siblings have a “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy when it comes to anything that may stir up emotions. I feel that it’s detrimental to my well-being.

My doctor has suggested cutting my family out of my life.

Dealing with them gives me great anxiety. My mother is a master manipulator who denies my suicide attempt ever happened, and I’m afraid she will tell my extended family members (many of whom

I have relationships with) that I have “abandoned the family.”

No one outside my immediate family knows about my depression or suicide attempt, and I feel I may be forced to reveal that very private part of my life in order to defend my actions. I don’t know what to do. – Reluctant To Reveal Dear Reluctant To Reveal: I think you should follow your doctor’s advice and not be intimidated.

You have an illness – depression – that, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is shared by about 9 percent of our population. It is nothing to be ashamed of.

Because you’re afraid of what your mother will say, explain to those relatives you feel close to what you need to do and the reasons for it. I can’t guarantee that some of them won’t take sides, but I’m sure not all of them will.

Aim for seven to eight hours of sleep – no more, no less Dear Doctor K: I read about a new study on sleep and memory.

I understand why too little sleep could affect memory. But why would too much sleep be harmful?

Dear Reader: When it comes to memory, sleep is a Goldilocks issue: Neither too much nor too little is good. Aim for “just right,” says Dr. Elizabeth Devore, an instructor in medicine at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital.

Dr. Devore led a new study that suggests getting an “average” amount of sleep – seven hours per day – may help maintain memory in later life.

In 1986 and again in 2000, researchers asked a large number of women who were enrolled in a long-term study about their sleep habits. Women who slept five hours or fewer per night or nine hours or more performed worse on brain testing compared with women who slept seven to eight hours a night. The researchers estimated that “undersleepers” and “oversleepers” were mentally two years older than the women who got seven to eight hours of shut-eye a night.

A study like this one can find only an association, a connection,

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff between two things – in this case, the number of hours of sleep and memory. It cannot prove that sleeping more or less than seven or eight hours a night (on a regular basis) is bad for memory. It can only suggest that possibility.

Is the possibility plausible? If so, how might sleep affect memory? People who are persistently sleep-deprived are more likely to have conditions that can decrease blood flow inside the brain. The most common is atherosclerosis of the arteries of the brain. Atherosclerosis blocks arteries, and thereby slows blood flow. This may negatively affect the ability of brain cells to work properly.

Sleep-deprived brains may also collect more deposits of a protein called beta amyloid.

These deposits are linked to declines in memory and thinking and increased risk of dementia.

One of the most interesting and potentially important scientific reports of the past year was a study done in mice. It may, or may not, apply to humans. The

study showed that during sleep the brain “flushes out” toxic substances. If this is true in humans, it could be part of the explanation as to why sleeping fewer than seven or eight hours per night on a regular basis could impair memory. But it wouldn’t explain why people who regularly sleep more than seven or eight hours per night have impaired memory.

What might the explanation be? People who spend more than nine or 10 hours a night in bed often have poor sleep quality. So, for both too little and too much sleep, the important number may be the hours of quality sleep.

To improve your sleep: • Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day.

• Use your bed only for sleeping or lovemaking.

• If you can’t fall asleep after 15 to 20 minutes, get out of bed. Get back into bed only when you feel sleepy.

• Limit caffeine.

• Don’t take long naps during the day.

Dr. Wallace: Thank goodness it’s summer break and our 10-year-old son doesn’t have to go to school. Our son is small for his age and, unfortunately, he has poor vision requiring him to wear thick-lens glasses.

We moved to our present location in the middle of the school year, and it was difficult for him to adjust to the new school.

At his previous school, all the kids knew him since first grade and accepted him for what he is: a nice young boy. He had no bullying problem at his old school, but at his new school kids made fun of him and even physically pushed him, sometimes causing him to fall.

When school starts in the fall I plan to talk to the principal to ensure that our son will attend school to get an education, not to be bullied by undisciplined students.

Please tell parents whose children are bullies what to do to end their unacceptable behavior.

– Mother, Philadelphia, Pa. Dear Mother: You make an excellent suggestion! First, let me define bullying for parents. Bullying is defined as any verbal (teasing, taunting, name-calling), physical (hitting, kicking, shoving, destroying another’s property) or non-physical (threatening or obscene gestures) behavior.

My research for your suggestion produced a group of tips for parents and teens presented by the National Association of Social Workers called “Dealing with School Bullying.” These seven tips will help parents to take preventive measures!

1. Know the warning signs. Teens may be too afraid to tell their

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace parents that they are being bullied. If teens frequently come home with bruises and scrapes, or are often upset, it may be an indication that they are being bullied.

2. Acknowledge bullying as a problem. If teens talk to you about bullying, be sure to acknowledge it as a serious problem. Be open, let them know that it is not their fault.

3. Model non-punitive behavior. When kids see their parents use aggressive or hostile behavior, they are more likely to exhibit it themselves.

4. Provide consequences. If your teen shows signs of these behaviors, immediately provide consequences.

5. Deal with siblings.

If siblings display bullying toward one another, discuss it and provide consequences. If not addressed at home, the problem may continue in other places.

6. Communicate with schools. Develop open communication with staff at school, including teachers and counselors.

They will inform you of any bullying behavior your teen displays outside of the home.

7. Intervene when teens are bullying others.

Confront teens displaying aggressive actions about their behavior, and let them know it is an issue. Then discuss alternative behaviors with them, including expressing anger appropriately, talking about their feelings and walking away when they are upset.

Dear Abby: What is the protocol for naming a baby after a deceased person? If the name you want to use is a deceased family member’s name, do we ask his next of kin for approval? Do we say nothing? Is it assumed that people who wish to use someone’s name when naming their child should seek permission (whether the person is living or dead)? – Pregnant In Illinois Dear Pregnant: In the Jewish faith, it is traditional for a baby to be named for a deceased parent or grandparent – or at least given a name with the same first initial.

However, if the person who died was a child of a close relative, I can see how that could be very painful for the parents who lost their child.

The appropriate thing to do would be to first have a conversation with the surviving family member(s) to be sure it will be considered the honor it is intended to be and not open fresh wounds.

If it would cause pain, perhaps the

By JOE HEIM The Washington Post Mike Cahill, 35, is a 2001 Georgetown University graduate whose films include 2011’s “Another Earth” and the just-released “I Origins.” Both were recipients of the Alfred P. Sloan Feature Film prize at the Sundance Film Festival.

The prize is given to films focusing on science or technology.

Joe Heim: “I Origins” is a movie about whether science can disprove intelligent design.

But it’s essentially a movie about faith.

Mike Cahill: It is a movie about faith in many ways.

Or it’s about a scientific man coming to faith. Some sort of faith, I guess.

Heim: You’re grappling with existential questions.

Cahill: Absolutely. It’s an exploration. It’s the conversation that we would probably have until 6 o’clock in the morning over a bottle of wine, turned into a movie.

[Laughs] It is the thing that is most interesting to me.

The question of the self and whether there is something beyond just the physics of our life.

Heim: When you watch your movie with an audience, are you calm or are you just sick to your stomach?

Cahill: I get into it. I

I made this movie. I’ve seen it 400 times. Why is this moment doing this to me?

them.

Heim: You went to Georgetown, which is not exactly known as a film school.

Cahill: Right, that is true.

But I did have some great professors who taught film in the English department.

They opened my eyes to film, to screenwriting. And I still apply what I learned.

Heim: Brit Marling has starred in your movies, and

three?

Heim: Just one.

Cahill: “2001: A Space Odyssey.” Because that movie, what it presents to you, can’t be articulated in any other form than as a movie.
