LOCAL BRIEF

Fire district hires new chief

Drive-thru flu shots available this weekend

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – Troy Fire Chief Steve Engledow has been hired as chief in New Lenox.

Engledow was named the new fire chief at the New Lenox Fire Protection District on Thursday. When he’s finished as chief for the Troy Fire Protection District on Sept. 30, he plans to move on to New Lenox with a three-year contract on a full-time basis.

He’ll replace Jon Mead, who resigned Sept. 5 after working as fire chief since 2010. Mead replaced former chief Jeff Swanson, who was placed on administrative leave. Engledow will be the district’s fifth chief since 2006.

Tom Gilbert, the fire protection district’s attorney, said Mead resigned without giving a reason. Fire officials had no comment on his resignation, he said.

Creating successors Engledow said he is excited about becoming the New Lenox fire chief.

“I’m looking forward to a

whole new fire department.

It’s going to be exciting for me,” he said. “I love working in the fire service. It’s one of my main passions in life.”

His goal is to build an administrative team that will take his place when he leaves.

He also plans to review “all aspects of the fire department,” Steve according to a Engledow news release from the district.

Roy “Skip” Minger, board president of the fire protection district, said trustees are excited to have Engledow join the department.

“The board and I are looking forward to working with [Fire] Chief Engledow,” he said in a news release.

At Troy five years Engledow served as the fire chief for the Troy Fire Protection District for five years and announced he was retiring from that post in late August.

Andy Doyle will replace Engledow as Troy’s fire chief. Doyle said Engledow

“changed a few things that needed to be fixed” while working for Troy. “[He] moved the department forward,” Doyle said.

While the Troy fire chief, Engledow reorganized the department staffing structure and created a succession plan, according to a news release.

He supervised the construction of a new fire house and purchased modern equipment.

He also headed a change in which the district hired full-time firefighters directly, negotiated the district’s first union contract and negotiated contracts with Kurtz Ambulances.

Before working for Troy, Engledow worked at the Joliet Fire Department for almost 28 years as a firefighter, paramedic, lieutenant, EMS coordinator, EMS chief and deputy chief. He left Joliet in 2007 and became a part-time assistant chief in East Joliet before becoming the Troy fire chief in 2009.

He also previously served with the Frankfort and Country Club Hills fire departments.

Joliet Township High School budget facing slight deficit

By SARWAT S. AHMAD Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – Joliet Township High School District 204 has approved a final budget that shows a deficit instead of the surplus it earlier estimated.

The fine-tuned budget now projects a deficit of $137,312, with revenues of about $100.09 million and expenses of about $100.22 million.

The tentative budget presented in August showed a surplus of $668,060, with estimated revenues and expenditures of $98.2 million and $97.6 million, respectively.

Assistant Superintendent for Business Services Ilandus Hampton cautioned at the time that the surplus would diminish as actual budget

numbers replaced estimates.

“The revised budget incorporates costs associated with implementation of the federal funds, state funds, adjustments of revenues and expenditures to the education fund, operations and maintenance fund and site and construction fund,” Hampton said at the public hearing during Tuesday’s regularly scheduled school board meeting.

The deficit is not expected to increase. The district will try to minimize additional costs encountered over the year by cutting back on other line items, Hampton said.

“We will continue to monitor the budget as we work through [the year],” he said.

Hampton has said in the past that “the district’s goal

is to have smaller deficits.”

In 2012 and 2013, the district faced deficits of $6.2 million and $8.9 million, respectively.

Last month, Hampton had said school districts across Illinois have suffered from decreased funding as well as lower aid from the state.

Joliet Central concessions In other action, the District 204 board approved a preliminary plan for a new concession stand at Joliet Central.

Estimated to cost between $265,000 and $300,000, the project is budgeted over a twoyear period.

The athletic boosters contributed $25,000 to the project.

Construction is expected to begin next spring and be completed by early August.

Presence Immediate Care in Joliet and New Lenox will offer drive-thru and walk-in flu shots this weekend.

On Saturday, from 9 a.m. to noon, people can get flu shots without leaving their cars. On Sunday, people can walk into the offices without appointments. The price for shots is $25, and Medicare and most major insurance will be accepted, Presence said in a news release.

Presence Immediate Care is at 7000 Caton Farm Road in Joliet and in the Presence Healing Arts Pavilion at 410 E. Lincoln Highway, New Lenox.

For information, call the Joliet location at 815-609-5501 or the New Lenox location at 815-462-5566.

A cozy home built for bats New ‘condo’ at Hammel Woods may serve both animals and humans

By VIKAAS SHANKER

“We want to discourage them from coming back to the shelter. The condo will be warmer, wind-free and provides a base in case young pups, the babies, fall.”

vshanker@shawmedia.com

S

HOREWOOD – The big brown bats that roost inside the Shorewood Grove Shelter in Hammel Woods forest preserve during the summer have for decades startled people, periodically flying in and out.

But Will County Forest Preserve officials say it is humans who disturb the bats’ daytime slumber with noise and smoke from picnic barbecues at the 80-year-old shelter.

“That’s why they sometimes fly out,” said Juanita Armstrong-Ullberg, forest preserve natural resource land manager.

Now forest preserve officials hope the bats will move out of the shelter into a new “bat condo” specially tailored for the needs of the animals.

The district hired Pennsylvania-based Bat Conservation and Management Inc. to construct the bat condo just north of the shelter.

Armstrong-Ullberg said the forest preserve wants to keep the bats around, noting they serve a useful purpose.

“Bats are nature’s insect repellent. They’re very important,” she said. The forest preserve just wants them to find a new home nearby.

“We want to discourage them from coming back to the shelter,” Armstrong-Ullberg said. “The condo will be warmer, wind-free and provides a base in case young pups, the babies, fall.”

Bat habitat The condo, which sits about 12 feet above ground, looks like a giant wooden birdhouse from the outside. Inside, it contains several rows of inch-wide crevices, which bat consultant Janet Tyburec said creates optimal conditions for socializing and sleeping

Juanita Armstrong-Ullberg Forest preserve natural resource land manager preserve $3,500, while installation cost $300. Part of the project was paid for by a Wildlife Preservation Grant from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

Workers from Bat Conservation and Management prepare to complete the bat condo in Hammel Woods on Thursday.

Officials with the Forest Preserve of Will County hope the condo will become home to about 2,000 bats, which will help control the mosquito population in Hammel Woods. LEFT: David Darrow from Bat Conservation and Management finishes attaching the roof to the Bat Condo in Hammel Woods on Thursday. during summer days.

The wooden crevices are roughened to give bats more grip. And the condo, which can hold up to 250 big brown bats, is cured to keep in more heat.

“Bats are unique in that they like it really hot in the summer, and really cold in the winter,” Tyburec said.

That’s why states around Lake Michigan are popular nesting grounds.

Armstrong-Ullberg said the forest preserve is a habitat for eight of the nine species of bats found in the Midwest. But only big brown and little brown bats roost inside the picnic shelter.

The condo is meant to replace the shelter as a summer home for female, young male and baby bats. But it may take a year or two before most bats recognize the condo as a suitable home. The early fall

construction will give time for the bats to find the condo.

The condo is located in a field north of the shelter. But people don’t need to worry about attacks from bats, especially because forest preserve officials say bats are more active at night.

“It’s better than bats roosting inside the shelter, where people are eating and socializing,” Armstrong-Ullberg said.

The condo cost the forest

Armstrong-Ullberg said she plans to install more natural prairie grass and plants around the condo. There will also be a small educational kiosk with bat facts.

“There is still so much we don’t know about bats,” she said, pointing out that research on bats didn’t really start until the 1970s.

Armstrong-Ullberg, who is thought of as “Bat Girl” among forest preserve staff, believes the big brown bats in Hammel Woods migrate to Wisconsin during the winter to hibernate after breeding in the fall.

The forest preserve is also installing an iButton in the condo, which will measure temperature, humidity and other conditions so officials can research the bat colony in a nonintrusive manner.

“One 20-ounce bat can eat its own body weight in mosquitoes and moths,” Armstrong-Ullberg said. That amounts to more than 3,000 insects in one night.

“These are good creatures,” she said. “The condo will help.”

City wins Evergreen Terrace suit Owners of apartment complex plan appeal

By BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A federal judge has ruled in favor of the city of Joliet’s bid to take over the Evergreen Terrace housing complex.

The long-awaited ruling

by U.S. District Court Judge Charles Norgle allows Joliet to proceed with its condemnation against the privately owned but government-subsidized apartment complex for low-income residents.

Mayor Tom Giarrante said the 54-page ruling came down about 3 p.m. Thursday.

Burnham Management Co., the firm that manages the 356-unit facility at 350 N. Broadway St., said it plans to appeal the ruling.

The next step in the trial will be to determine the price the city will pay the owners of the Broadway Street housing

complex.

The city has pursued condemnation against the facility since 2005, citing crime problems and poor living conditions as major concerns.

Norgle has been considering the case since the condemnation trial ended in mid-May. Giarrante said he was pleased with the ruling. “I’ve been cautiously optimistic,” he said.

ment said.

City Attorney Jeff Plyman said he believed any appeal would have to follow the next phase of the condemnation trial, which would set a price for Evergreen Terrace. The city will have to pay that price to take ownership.

“The trial is to determine the value of the property,” Plyman said. “You establish that through appraisers. Each side has a couple of appraisOwners to appeal ers, so there’s not that many Burnham Management Co. witnesses. I figure it will take said in a written statement a couple weeks.” that it was committed “to Evergreen Terrace and the City Council reaction nearly 800 people who call it Most members of the City home.”

Council were pleased by the “While we are disappoint- ruling. ed with this ruling, we plan “I think it’s a win for the to appeal and will continue city and a win for the resito move forward singularly dents of Evergreen Terrace,” focused on providing safe, said At-Large Councilman affordable housing for those Mike Turk, who was on the who need it most,” the state- council when it began con-

demnation proceedings in 2005. “They told us it would be a while, but I didn’t take think it would take this long.”

At-Large Councilwoman Jan Quillman also was a member of the council that initiated the action nine years ago.

“It’s been a long, hard battle,” Quillman said. “For me it’s always been about quality of life issues for the folks that live there.”

“With the recent tragedy there, something has to be done,” she said, referring to the Sept. 3 fatal stabbing of a woman in an Evergreen Terrace laundry room.

“I am glad the city won,” said District 2 Councilman Bob O’Dekirk, who in recent months has questioned what the city plans to do with the property should it win the suit. O’Dekirk is challenging Giarrante next year for the mayoral seat.

“We spent a lot of money.

It would have been unacceptable if we lost, but to say we won a lawsuit isn’t enough,”

O’Dekirk said. “There has to be a viable, realistic plan on what we’re going to do with the property.”

At-Large Council Jim McFarland issued a statement saying he would pursue demolition of Evergreen Terrace, which he believes was the original intent of the lawsuit.

District 1 Councilman Larry Hug has been one of the council’s most vocal critics of the Evergreen Terrace condemnation.

“I’m very curious as to how we’re going to pay for it if we choose to take it over,” Hug said.

Plyman said the city has tried to reassure Evergreen Terrace residents that nothing will happen overnight.

“We’ll operate transitionally and work with each family individually and determine what’s best for them,” Plyman said. “We want to reassure residents that they will be taken care of and that they will have adequate housing no matter what.”

Construction underway on former SSA building It will house pair of county offices once work finishes

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – If all goes as planned, the Will County Recorder of Deeds and Coroner offices will move into the former Social Security Administration building in downtown Joliet before the end of the year.

County and local officials Thursday celebrated the start of construction on the building, 158 N. Scott St. Montgomery-based Lite Construction Inc. is remodeling the 11,500-square-foot building for $1.4 million under the guidance of architecture firm Cordogan Clark & Associates.

Denise Winfrey, who chairs the Will County Board’s Capital Improvements Committee, said the renovations are one of the first strategic steps to help the county move forward on its master capital plan.

Moving the coroner’s administrative office frees up space in the Emco Building, 57 N. Ottawa St. The Emco Building, also known as the Court Annex, houses the state’s attorney’s office and could one day serve as space for the public defender’s office.

County Executive Larry Walsh said shifting the recorder of deeds office to the former Social Security building will save $250,000 a year in lease exLauren Leone-Cross penses alone.

Budget proposal includes $32M in capital projects

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Friday, September 19, 2014

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Will County Executive Larry Walsh said Thursday he has drafted a balanced 2015 budget at $466 million, which is down from last year but provides increased spending for capital projects, including a new county complex at Laraway Road.

“I have heard from the County Board members and other elected officials that we need a more comprehensive approach to fund our roads, facilities and technology needs,” Walsh told County Board members at their Thursday meeting. “I completely agree and have developed a five-year plan to address these needs.”

Walsh’s draft budget includes $32 million to go toward

a five-year capital plan. That represents an increase over the $27 million average spending on highways and other projects in previous years, he said.

“This will allow greater flexibility and keep our road infrastructure projects moving forward,” Walsh said.

Walsh’s proposed budget, at $466 million, is down from the $503 million budget approved last year by the county.

The 2014 property tax levy, collected in 2015, will increase by $2.9 million, Walsh said.

That translates into $1.6 million more in actual levy money, plus an increase from new property of $1.3 million, he said.

About $2.4 million of that will be used to pay for countywide capital projects, includ-

ing the new interchange at Interstate 55 and Weber Road.

The rest will go toward special funds.

In the coming months, the board will finalize the county’s five-year capital plan with Walsh’s suggestions in mind.

The plan identifies both ongoing and future capital projects, he said, including a new county complex at the sheriff’s facility on Laraway Road, a new courthouse, health department and other “critical” projects.

“Once we finalize the fiveyear capital plan, we must act to fund these agreed-upon projects or else we will lose the momentum that we have worked so hard for,” Walsh said.

Will County Board rejects salvage yard JOLIET – The Will County Board rejected a rezoning plan Thursday that would have allowed an auto salvage yard along New Lenox Road just outside Joliet city limits.

The board voted 14-10, but it needed 20 votes to pass.

Board Speaker Herbert Brooks, who voted for the proposal, said it would have

brought 10 to 15 employees and generated about $70,000 in new property taxes each year for District 8, where the property is located.

But residents spoke out Thursday against the rezoning.

Jessica Cook, who lives on New Lenox Road, told board members the business would bring heavy truck traffic and a bad image to the area.

“People will see this from

[Interstate 80] when they come to Joliet,” Cook said.

Bruce Zumstein, attorney for Martin Campground Inc., which is located along New Lenox Road, said the salvage yard would be a “death sentence for New Lenox Road.”

The proposal would have rezoned about 23 acres along the north side of New Lenox Road between Briggs and Cherry streets from agriculture to industrial.

Board will review draft budget over next 60 days It can’t get any easier.

“in a challenging economic period.”

The draft budget will now be reviewed by the County Board. The board has 60 days to approve a new budget before the start of the new fiscal year on Dec. 1.

Walsh’s draft budget is available on the county executive’s website at www.willcountyillinois.com.

He also reported an estimated savings of $1.6 million through a cooperative effort between the county executive’s office and the County Board.

“This savings is a direct result of the restructuring of

the county’s health insurance plan, which implemented revised tier and contribution levels for our employees,” Walsh said. “We have also launched an employee wellness program that we are hopeful will help continue to reduce our insurance costs in the future.”

Walsh also reported that Will County continues to maintain its AA+ bond rating

JOLIET – The city saved a lot of green to make its parkways greener.

The Joliet City Council on Tuesday accepted a $121,625 bid from The Fields on Caton Farm to plant 500 trees in areas where ash trees were removed due to emerald ash borer infestation.

The bid came in about 20 percent below the city staff’s $150,000 estimate. The only other project bid was for $203,550 by Allied Landscaping.

The city has lost thousands of ash trees on its parkways to the emerald ash borer.

The tree replacement plan was part of a $1.4 million budget increase passed by the council in June. The bulk of that increase – $955,000 – was

Romeoville man still faces charges in his wife’s death

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A Romeoville man still faces charges in the 2010 death of his wife after a plea deal fell through Thursday.

John Sadler, 71, was scheduled to appear Wednesday before Judge Amy Bertani-Tomczak. But his lawyer Ignatius Villasenor and Assistant Will County State’s Attorney Frank Byers agreed to a one-day delay while negotia-

tions were finalized.

When the case was called Thursday, Sadler took his wallet and keys from his pocket and gave them to a man who had accompanied him to the courthouse. It appeared he anticipated being jailed after the proceedings.

When Sadler appeared hesitant to accept John Sadler final terms, Byers told Villasenor and the judge “the deal’s revoked.”

Both lawyers declined to comment on the deal-breaker, but Villasenor said it was “accurate” that both sides believed everything was resolved until late Thursday morning.

Sadler is charged with involuntary manslaughter, concealment of a homicide, aggravated battery to a senior citizen and aggravated domestic battery.

On July 26, 2010, officers were called to the Sadlers’ home in the 1600 block of Benzie Circle after their daughter asked police to check on her mother’s well-being.

John Sadler allegedly said Carol Sadler, 66, was out of town and would return that afternoon. But when officers returned that evening to check again, they smelled an odor that made them suspicious.

John Sadler refused to let police inside, but they obtained a search warrant and found Carol Sadler’s decaying

body. Sadler admitted he’d hit his wife of 46 years on the head with a hammer during an argument 10 days earlier and told friends she was out of town, according to police.

He was initially arrested on murder charges, but those were dropped three months later. Medical tests reportedly couldn’t prove the hammer injuries triggered the heart attack that an autopsy showed led to Carol Sadler’s death.

Byers said Thursday there is no statute of limitations to refile murder charges if the case is reviewed.

Sadler has paid a $30,000 bond to remain out of the Will County jail while awaiting trial. He is next scheduled to appear in court Oct. 16.

JOLIET – A Minooka man had been out of jail for about 10 hours before authorities say he was arrested again, accused of stealing items from a taco truck.

Officers found the three men walking down the street with milk crates filled with soda, tortillas and a speaker that had been on the truck’s counter, according to police reports.

Gilson was arrested on a charge of burglary and returned to the jail at 5:48 a.m.

Gilson’s probation on the forgery charge is expected to be revoked because of the new charge.

Gun-carry off-limits at Corn Festival

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – People with concealed-carry permits should not be surprised that they cannot carry their guns at the Grundy County Corn Festival, says concealed-carry instructor Terry Bitner.

“We spend about six hours on the second day of training learning about the laws,” said Bitner, a former Grundy County deputy and Kinsman resident. “The law is clear on it.”

Morris Police Chief Brent Dite said a provision in the law lists locations where concealed carry is prohibited. That includes any public gathering on public property where permits are required.

Those with a concealed-carry license are not allowed to carry their weapons during any event that falls under that provision, including the Corn Festival.

The Corn Festival committee receives a permit from the city for the event.

Grundy administrator submits resignation County Board must still vote to accept it; she has held the job for 5 months

By JESSICA BOURQUE jbourque@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Grundy County Administrator Heidi Miller has tendered her resignation, five months after being hired, Grundy County Chairman Ron Severson said Thursday.

Her resignation will not become official until the Grundy County Board takes action on it at a special Oct. 1 meeting, Severson said.

Personnel Committee Chairwoman Vicki Geiger said the committee also will discuss the matter at the Oct. 1 meeting, but she wants final acceptance of Miller’s resignation to rest with the full board.

Severson declined to discuss why Miller submitted her resignation, and phone calls made Thursday to Miller’s office were not immediately returned.

Miller was hired in March after serving about six months as the county’s interim administrator.

If the board accepts her resignation, Miller will be the

fourth administrator to leave the county since 2011.

Dan Duffy left the job in 2011 for a position with the village of Minooka. Duffy was replaced by Shawn Hamilton, who then left in July 2012 for a job with the city of Park Ridge.

At that time, the county opted to fill the position with county secretary Sandy Pommier and Miller, who shared the position’s duties. The board later hired Chris Wittkamp on a part-time basis.

Wittkamp was hired fulltime in April 2013, but she resigned five months later, in September 2013.

After Wittkamp left, Miller was appointed interim administrator while continuing to work in the land use department.

Severson said Miller expressed interest in remaining Grundy County land use director in her resignation letter.

Severson said the board will have a lengthy discussion before making Miller’s resignation official.

“Corn Festival meets the statute,” Dite said. “I don’t anticipate an issue. People who went through the time and money to get a permit know they can’t carry there.”

Dite said he understands there are some gray areas about what exactly constitutes Corn Festival, and his officers will review any issues that arise on a case-by-case basis.

“Any time there is a new law enacted, we tend to lean toward educating the public,” he said.

Gray areas aside, he said several event areas would clearly not allow concealed carry, including establishments with liquor licenses, the festival’s carnival, Farm Fair and areas around the bandstands.

Many other areas are also no-carry, including downtown streets – which are barricaded for the Corn Festival – and anywhere a listed activity takes place.

Grundy County Corn Festival President John Spar-

row said when Dite asked the committee to help spread the word, they decided to include the official “no weapons” symbol in publications such as the Corn Festival Book, which is handed out to attendees at no charge.

“People look in the books to see what is going on,” Sparrow said. “We feel the more people who know about it, the less likely they are to get in trouble. When Chief Dite asked us to include it, we said, ‘No problem.’ ”

The fire on Broadway Street in Coal City is thought to have started in the basement, where the majority of the damage to the home can be seen.

No injuries in house fire Cause of basement blaze still under investigation

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD hlitchfield@shawmedia.com

and BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com COAL CITY – No one was injured when a basement fire damaged a two-story Coal City home Thursday.

The Coal City Fire Protection District received a call about the fire in the 300 block of South Broadway at 12:01 a.m. Thursday. Firefighters arrived four minutes later to find heavy smoke coming from the house, according to a news release from the district.

The home is owned by Jon Lacy of Orlando, Florida, Coal City building and zoning code enforcement officer Richard “Bob” Malone said Thursday morning.

“I inspected the home at 6:30 a.m. The center beam and the three support posts in the basement are charred,” Malone said. “It was mostly contained in the basement, but it did travel to the first floor, up the wall.”

Lacy said during a phone interview that he has owned the home for more than 10 years and has always rented it.

He does not have insurance on the building, so he is unsure what he will do next.

“I’ve never had a problem with safety there,” Lacy said. “I just found out five or six hours ago, so I’m not sure what we will do at this point.”

Malone said he believes the fire department’s quick response helped prevent the damage from being worse.

Firefighters first battled the blaze from the outside before crews entered to extinguish it. Chief James Sheldon said an “exemplary job was done by the first-in crews” in a fast attack and in quickly extinguishing the fire, according to the release.

MABAS Division 15 fire investigators will investigate the fire’s cause. Damage estimates are still being compiled.

The Coal City fire district was assisted by Wilmington, Braidwood, Morris, Gardner, Braceville, Channahon, Elwood, East Joliet, Dwight, Troy and Manhattan fire departments with help from the Coal City police, Grundy County Sheriff’s Office and Emergency Management Agency.

ROMEOVILLE – A rock concert headlined by local AC/DC tribute band Damnation on Saturday will raise money for high school scholarships.

The Ultimate Classic Rock Show will be at Mongo McMichael’s, 1101 N. Independence Ave. in Romeoville, from 1 to 11 p.m. It’s being organized by the Lockport West/Romeoville High School Alumni Association.

“It will be epic,” alumni liaison Tom Giganti said.

Along with Damnation, the concert will feature local bands Brainwashed, D-Rox and Kashmir. Several rock radio stations and organizations will set up booths, and raffles will be held throughout the day.

Proceeds will go toward $500 scholarships for Romeoville High School students.

Giganti said the alumni association plans to raise about $5,000 at the concert.

“We’re hoping to give 10 students at least $500 apiece in scholarships toward books and other stuff,” Giganti said. “This will be our biggest event ever.”

Giganti expects a couple hundred people to show up.

Tickets cost $15 a person or $25 for two people. They can be purchased at the door or through Mongo McMichael’s.

The alumni association, a relatively new organization, also held two alumni ice hockey games this year that raised $1,000 and featured players from the Lockport West teams that dominated competition in the 1970s.

In Loving Memory

Gary D. Mayer

Eleven years ago today.

12-2-68 – 9-19-03 A face I loved is missing, A voice I knew is still.

A place is vacant in my heart, That only you could fill.

There is always a face before me, A voice I would love to hear.

A smile I will always remember, Of a son I loved so dear.

Your resting place I visit, And put flowers there with care, But no one knows the heartache, As I turn and leave you there.

Deeply Loved and Missed by Mom and Family

Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner speaks during an interview in Chicago on Thursday. Rauner is running against Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn in the November 2014 general election.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Republican candidate for governor Bruce Rauner said Thursday he’s not a fan of gambling or a plan to put slot machines at Chicago’s international airports, but he wouldn’t stand in the way of adding casinos if local communities support it.

Illinois lawmakers for years have pushed for expanding gambling as a way to generate funds for a state that’s billions of dollars in debt and facing a multibillion-dollar budget shortfall.

But Rauner made clear in an interview with The Associated Press that he has misgivings.

“I don’t gamble. I don’t like gambling,” said Rauner, a businessman from Winnetka who’s in a tight race against Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn.

“It can be an addictive thing and it can hurt families that can’t afford to be hurt.”

Rauner, who said any expansion should maximize profit, also said he’d lean against putting slots at O’Hare and Midway airports – one of the ideas that’s been floated in the Illinois Legislature.

“When visitors are coming into Illinois there’s a certain image you project when folks are coming through, and I’m not sure I want that to be the image of Illinois,” he said.

Quinn has twice vetoed gambling expansion proposals, largely over ethical con-

cerns about corruption. He’s said Illinois shouldn’t settle for a gambling bill that “includes loopholes for mobsters.”

Last year’s bill calling for five new casinos fizzled out after the Illinois Gaming Board questioned if Chicago would have the authority to oversee its own casino. The bill’s sponsor has since tried to iron out that issue and others by presenting lawmakers with the option of separating out the Chicago casino from four other proposed locations in a suburb south of Chicago and the counties of Lake, Winnebago and Vermilion.

Quinn has said those plans need further review.

“I am open to gaming expansion if it is done with strong oversight and ethical standards,” Quinn wrote in an AP candidate questionnaire.

Rauner said he also would push for “careful, thoughtful restrictions about who’s involved” in any gambling expansion, citing concerns about Illinois’ history with organized crime and “unethical behavior by politicians and their cronies.”

Supporters of the casino proposals have said they could generate up to $1 billion in revenue each year for the state and create much-needed jobs. But most of Illinois’ 10 existing casinos have worried that over-saturation could hurt their business and lead to job losses.

Illinois jobless rate declines in August

ST. LOUIS – Illinois’ unemployment fell in August to 6.7 percent, the sixth straight monthly decrease in the state’s jobless rate, the Illinois Department of Employment Security said Thursday.

The latest figure, down onetenth of a percentage point from July, represents a drop from 9.2 percent one year ago and marks the largest yearover-year decline since 1984, the department said. The last time the rate was lower than 6.7 was in July 2008, when it was 6.6 percent.

There are 40,600 more jobs than one year ago, according to Thursday’s announcement, though the meaning of that was open to interpretation by Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn and his Republican challenger, Bruce Rauner.

Using his visit Thursday to a global Chicago pump-rebuilding company as a backdrop, Quinn heralded August’s employment showing as “proof that Illinois’ comeback continues.”

Rauner, while acknowledging that “it’s always good news when more Illinoisans are working,” countered Quinn’s enthusiasm, insisting “we still have a huge ways to go to get out of the massive hole” he blamed on Quinn, Quinn predecessor and now-imprisoned Rod Blagojevich, and Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan.

2 Illinois women die from West Nile virus

SPRINGFIELD – Two women with West Nile virus have died, becoming the state’s first deaths from the illness this year, health officials announced Thursday.

One woman was in her 70s

Chad Grimm, the Illinois Libertarian gubernatorial candidate, speaks with The Associated Press during a Sept. 15 interview at the state Capitol in Springfield. On Thursday, Sangamon County Judge Patrick Kelley denied GOP attorneys’ appeal of a State Board of Elections decision to allow Chad Grimm of Peoria on the Nov. 4 ballot. His name will appear alongside those of Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn and Republican challenger Bruce Rauner. The GOP attorneys had challenged the validity of the voter signatures gathered by several Libertarian petition circulators. Grimm, a fiscal conservative who advocates minimalist government, could draw votes that otherwise would go to Rauner in what’s expected to be a close race. Kelley found that the evidence supported the board’s decision, noting that the court could overturn it “only if it finds the rulings are clearly erroneous.”

and the other was in her 80s, said Chicago Department of Public Health spokesman Ryan Gage. Another two Chicago residents with the virus have recovered.

Statewide, health officials have reported 15 human cases of West Nile virus, which is transmitted by mosquitoes.

“Although we’ve seen a cooler and wetter summer, which has resulted in less West Nile virus activity, these deaths show the virus is circulating and can cause death,” said Illinois Department of Public Health Director Dr. LaMar Hasbrouck.

Last year, 11 people died in Illinois after being infected by the virus and 117 Illinois residents were diagnosed with it.

The virus can cause fever, headache and body aches.

People age 50 and older are at a higher risk for serious complications.

ComEd settles for $46 million with state of Illinois

CHICAGO – The Illinois Commerce Commission on Thursday approved a $46.2 million Commonwealth Edison settlement over lawsuits with the state that could mean refunds of about $8 for customers on their November electric bills, the Illinois attorney general’s office said.

The settlement resolves two lawsuits that Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan brought

in 2008 and 2010 challenging the utility’s rates. Madigan’s office said the settlement will result in credits to ComEd customer accounts in November based on electricity usage in October 2014 and on an individual account basis.

Former ComEd customers from October 2010 to December 2012 also are eligible for refunds if they show they were customers.

Crestwood seeks to settle suits over water pollution

CRESTWOOD – The Crestwood Village Board was set to vote Thursday night on a settlement with the state over accusations of tainted drinking

water, officials said.

Both Crestwood Mayor Lou Presta and a representative for Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan confirmed an agreement has been reached.

Presta said the village will pay a $50,000 fine but admit no guilt.

Madigan’s office sued the village in 2009, saying it provided contaminated well water to residents for about two decades. Crestwood’s drinking water supply was a mix of the contaminated well water with water from Lake Michigan, despite an order from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency not to use the well water for that purpose, the Southtown Star reported.

The state department ordered the shutdown of the well in 2007 after it discovered the village had been filing fraudulent paperwork to hide its use of the bad well. Two former Crestwood village officials were charged in the case.

Naperville quarry deaths ruled to be from drowning

NAPERVILLE – Two 21-yearold college students who died earlier this summer drowned when a car they were riding in went into a Naperville quarry, according to DuPage County Coroner’s Office officials.

Sajaad Syed of Naperville and Mihirtej Boddupalli of Lisle were killed in the early morning of July 19 after the car ran through a fence and fell into 40-footdeep water in the quarry, The Naperville Sun reported. The drowning ruling was made recently, following toxicology testing results that showed alcohol and narcotics were not a factor in their deaths, Chief Deputy Coroner Charlie Dastych said.

Prosecutors from the DuPage County state’s attorney’s office say Michael Szot, the driver who survived by escaping from the car, was intoxicated and perhaps high on marijuana during the accident.

Ballot boxes are opened Thursday as counting begins in the Scottish Independence Referendum for the Aberdeenshire Council area in Aberdeen, Scotland.

Vote counting begins on Scotland independence

By JILL LAWLESS The Associated Press EDINBURGH, Scotland – From the capital of Edinburgh to the far-flung Shetland Islands, Scots embraced a historic moment – and the rest of the United Kingdom held its breath – after voters turned out in unprecedented numbers for an independence referendum that could end the country’s 307-year union with England.

After the polls closed late Thursday, many Scots settled in to stay up all night in homes and bars, awaiting the result that could change their lives, shake financial markets worldwide and

boost other independence movements from Flanders to Catalonia to Quebec.

A nationwide count began immediately at 32 regional centers across Scotland. At Highland Hall outside of Edinburgh, where the final result was expected early Friday, vote-counters at dozens of tables sorted through paper ballots, watched keenly by monitors from the Yes and No camps.

The first numbers released early Friday local time were turnout totals for two regions – 84 percent and 89 percent – suggesting that the number of voters could hit a record high.

Eager voters had lined up outside some polling stations

even before they opened Thursday. More than 4.2 million people had registered to vote – 97 percent of those eligible – including residents as young as 16.

For some, it was a day they had dreamed of for decades. For others, the time had finally come to make up their minds about the future – both for themselves and for the United Kingdom.

One thing was known: A Yes vote would trigger 18 months of negotiations between Scottish leaders and London-based politicians on how the two countries would separate their institutions before Scotland’s planned Independence Day on March 24, 2016.

Hamas’ No. 2 leader calls war a lesser option THE ASSOCIATED PRESS GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip – Hamas does not want another war with Israel, the Islamic militant group’s No. 2 leader, Moussa Abu Marzouk, said in an interview Thursday, but he suggested more fighting is inevitable unless a deal is reached on ending seven years of Israeli-Egyptian border closures of Hamas-ruled Gaza.

Such a deal remains elusive, in part because Hamas refuses to disarm – a key Israeli condition for lifting the blockade. Hamas also remains locked in bitter disputes with its main rival, the Fatah movement led by Western-backed President Mahmoud Abbas, whom the international community views as a central guarantor of any new arrangement for Gaza.

Three weeks after the end of the latest Israel-Hamas war, the third in five years, it still is unclear when Egyptian-mediated talks between Israel, Hamas and Abbas on Gaza’s future will be held.

In the meantime, Israel said it has agreed to allow larger amounts of construction material into Gaza under United Nations supervision to begin reconstruction, al-

though details are sketchy.

Israel said tight supervision is needed to prevent Hamas from diverting cement and steel for military use.

During 50 days of fighting, Israel launched thousands of airstrikes at what it said were Hamas-linked targets in Gaza, killing more than 2,100 Palestinians – the vast majority civilians – and destroying more than 18,000 homes.

FREETOWN, Sierra Leone – In a desperate bid to slow West Africa’s accelerating Ebola outbreak, Sierra Leone ordered its 6 million people confined to their homes for three days starting Friday while volunteers conduct a house-to-house search for victims in hiding.

At an emergency meeting, meanwhile, the U.N. Security Council unanimously called the crisis “a threat to international peace and security” and urged all countries to provide experts, field hospitals and medical supplies. It was only the second time the council addressed a health emergency, the first being the AIDS epidemic.

And in Guinea, seven bodies were found after a team of Guinean health workers trying to educate people about Ebola was abducted by villagers armed with rocks and knives, the prime minister said.

Among the dead were three Guinean radio journalists.

Many villagers in West Africa have reacted with fear and panic when outsiders have come to conduct awareness campaigns and have even attacked health clinics.

The disease – which also has touched Liberia, Nigeria and Senegal – is believed to have sickened more than 5,300 people and killed more than 2,600 of them, the World Health Organization said. In a sign the crisis is picking up steam, more than 700 of those infections were recorded in the last week for which data is available.

During the lockdown in Sierra Leone, from midnight Thursday and through Sunday, volunteers will try to identify sick people reluctant or unable to seek treatment. They will also hand out 1.5 million bars of soap and dispense information on how to prevent Ebola.

Authorities said they expect to discover hundreds of new cases during the shutdown. Many of those infected have not sought treatment out of fear that hospitals are merely places people go to die.

BEIRUT – Islamic State militiamen backed by tanks defiantly advanced Thursday in Syria, capturing more than 20 Kurdish villages as the international community strains to assemble a coalition that might destroy them.

The gains highlighted the plight of Syria’s Kurds, who have been some of the most successful against the Islamic extremists. But unlike U.S.backed Iraqi Kurds, they seem largely on their own in a devastated country.

The main Kurdish force in Syria, known as the People’s Protection Units or YPK, is viewed with suspicion by mainstream Syrian rebels and their Western supporters because of perceived links to President Bashar Assad’s government.

NATO member Turkey is also wary of the group, which it believes is affiliated with the Kurdish PKK movement that waged a long and bloody insurgency in southeast Turkey.

“This is a complicating factor in the equation,” said Fawaz Gerges, a Middle East expert at the London School of Economics.

The U.S. and its allies think the Kurdish alliance is fighting alongside the Assad government, he said. And the Americans don’t want to upset Turkey.

So while the U.S. and its allies accelerate weapons deliveries to Iraqi Kurds, Syrian Kurds complain they have been largely dismissed and ignored as a fighting force.

OUR VIEW

Thumbs-up: for caring for those who need it most The Herald-News Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs-up and thumbs-down: Thumbs-up: to the students at Joliet Job Corps for dedicating Saturdays for their volunteer work at Joliet Township Animal Control. In the last two years, these students have given 1,000 hours of dog walking, litter box scooping and cage cleaning. They’ve also provided plenty of one-on-one attention to dogs and cats that rarely experience it – but desperately require it if they are to be well-socialized and adoptable.

Thumbs-down: to the public for not taking advantage of two meetings Joliet Junior College held recently as it sought feedback on expansion projects on its campuses in Joliet and Romeoville. JJC’s master plan calls for two projects: a multipurpose building at the Joliet campus, and adding space to existing building at the Romeoville campus to accommodate the growth that campus has seen. Both projects will be funded through a $45 million bond issue. JJC realized that these buildings are to serve the community, so they rightly invited the community to talk about what they want in these buildings. Few people showed up at the events, and those who did primarily were JJC staff members.

It was sad to see more people not take advantage of a government body’s transparent efforts.

Thumbs-up: to Will County for its renovations of Sunny Hill Nursing Home. The residential facility is one of the last county-owned nursing homes in Illinois; the 300-bed nursing facility focuses on providing care to those dependent on public aid or who cannot afford private, long-term care facilities. While many counties are getting out of the nursing home business, Will County sees the need to care for some of our most vulnerable residents and is working to ensure they are taken care of.

THE FIRST AMENDMENT

GOP’s new hope: Mitt Romney Richard Nixon lost the presidency in 1960, was pilloried in his own party for losing to so inexperienced an opponent as John F. Kennedy, and eight years later was elected to the White House. Ronald Reagan tried twice, in 1968 and 1976, and didn’t win the Republican nomination until 1980, when he was elected president.

If you and I know that, then surely Mitt Romney does, too. And there are growing signs Romney, fortified by the conviction he was right more often than he was wrong in his campaign against a president who now suffers from plunging public support, may be looking at a third presidential race as well.

This is not merely musings for a September morning. Na-

NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE David M. Shribman tionally regarded Republican political operatives – among the party’s shrewdest and most experienced analysts, mostly of the breed who recoil at the thought of Rand Paul of Kentucky or Ted Cruz of Texas heading the GOP ticket – are talking privately of the appeal Romney might have in 2016.

Of course, all the planets would have to align perfectly, but that is true of any presidential run; most White House campaigns are failures.

Still, if Obama continues to record poor poll results – and if increasing numbers of

Americans remind the former Massachusetts governor that he was right about Russia and the economy, if the Republican insurgents look as though they will split the primary vote, and if former Gov. Jeb Bush of Florida does not mount a campaign of his own, then Romney could emerge as a powerful contender.

A Romney campaign would be all the more formidable in the unlikely event that former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton does not run for president. A Republican veteran of nine presidential campaigns told me, in reference to the retiring governor of Maryland, a Democrat: “Mitt Romney versus Martin O’Malley wouldn’t be close.”

Nixon political comeback a model for 2016 Romney bid • SHRIBMAN Continued from page 27 The potential Romney surge – actually, more of a stealth operation – would be fueled by his involvement in midterm congressional and gubernatorial contests this autumn. Several top Republican operatives say GOP officials might supply Romney – one of the most-requested surrogate campaigners in the country – with a plane to campaign for Republican candidates.

“He could fill the day four times over with legitimate requests for his time,” said Ron Kaufman, a former Republican National Committee budget chairman and a White House official in the first Bush years.

That sort of political scut work has paid dividends before. Nixon was considered politically dead after losing the White House in 1960 and then being defeated in the California gubernatorial race two years later. It was after that loss to Edmund G. Brown Sr. that the former vice president, in his you-won’t-have-Nix-

on-to-kick-around-anymore remarks, declared that he had given his last press conference and would be withdrawing from politics.

By 1966, Nixon was perhaps the most prominent and ardent Republican surrogate campaigner in American political history.

“1966 is very important in understanding Nixon’s re-emergence because it was an off-year congressional campaign period where the spotlight was really on Nixon,” recalled Dwight Chapin, a veteran Nixon hand who became White House appointments secretary, in an oral-history interview for the Nixon Presidential Library and Museum. “He took full advantage of it. He earned a lot of chits with the various congressional candidates.”

With Nixon’s help, the Republicans gained 47 seats in the House and three in the Senate – a major blow to President Lyndon B. Johnson.

The president was so angered by the Nixon offensive that, according to Chapin, he referred to Nixon as “a chronic campaigner.”

Nixon was an avid student of American politics and understood that his 1960 loss was in part a reflection of the overall weakness of his party – a weakness that only grew after Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona lost the 1964 election in a landslide.

“So we had to increase the number of governors. We had to increase the number of senators, increase the number of congressmen,” Nixon said in recorded 1983 interviews with former aide Frank Gannon and available through the University of Georgia, adding: “And that’s exactly what we accomplished in that 1966 campaign.”

The result, according to Nixon: “So that gave the party the new life. It created a new plateau ... for the [presidential] candidate to pole-vault from in order to win in 1968.”

The 2016 race is shaping up to be considerably different from the 1968 race, in which Nixon’s only real party rival was Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York. The next presidential race may include a number of Republican contenders – including Jeb

Bush, who as a member of the Republican establishment occupies much the same profile in a potential race as Romney.

One Republican operative described the pressure on Romney from GOP strategists, activists and donors as a “drumbeat.” A top Romney donor said the former governor’s family is “very supportive” of another campaign, although those close to Romney are virtually unanimous in their view that he will not enter the 2016 race if Bush does.

Three months ago, the Granite State Poll conducted for WMUR-TV by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center found that nearly 40 percent of likely Republican voters in the state’s first-in-

Peterson suspension charts NFL path emerged, and the NFL did nothing different.

Fortunately, the Vikings finally did the right thing Wednesday when the team suspended Peterson pending the outcome of charges he abused his 4-year-old son when he “whooped” him for bad behavior.

The Vikings’ decision to reactivate him Monday, citing their desire to let the court process determine his punishment, rightly drew intense national criticism.

Sadly, however, it took the language of money to wake up the Vikings and – hopefully – the NFL. Radisson Hotels’ announcement to suspend its Vikings sponsorship became the first of several multimillion- and even billion-dollar corporate sponsors that said “enough.”

Sure, dollar signs speak louder than protest signs to the NFL, but at least it forced

the Vikings to make the right move.

Those sponsors now should demand the handling of Peterson’s case become leaguewide policy.

“Innocent until proven guilty” is the standard in the justice system, not for businesses and other organizations – especially for people in highly visible and leadership roles. Like it or not, those include professional athletes, most of whom sign contracts that bind them to certain behavior standards 24/7.

For the sake of protecting such an organization’s future, when a member violates terms of a contract, steps must be taken quickly, or one person’s actions can take down an entire organization.

Hopefully, Peterson’s case finally made the NFL realize that.

Car Shopping For a Teen?

What you Need to Know with Tyson Motor

ANOTHER VIEW

There are two elements of good in the Minnesota Vikings putting Adrian Peterson on suspension at least until his court case involving child abuse charges is resolved.

First, it’s the right decision.

Second – and more importantly – it should set the new NFL standard for off-field violence.

When players, employees and even owners face felony-level charges or credible accusations of any violence against women, children and family members, the accused should be suspended until those charges are resolved.

Remember, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell the past few weeks vowed to crack down on players’ off-thefield violence, including an immediate six-game suspension regardless of the legal process.

Then Peterson’s case

the-nation primary would side with Romney if he ran, pushing all the other potential candidates to support levels beneath 10 percent.

Every presidential race has its own contours and rhythms, and Nixon’s 1966 gambit hasn’t been repeated on that scale by any candidate in nearly a half century, with one signal exception: Ronald Reagan.

The only political figure in a position to repeat it this time around is Romney. The key to the 2016 race may be whether he chooses to do so.

By Michelle Diamond Car shopping has always been stressful. Between make, model, color, price, and the number of available cup holders, it can be an over whelming process. Add a teenager to the mix and you might not even know where to start.

The three things parents should keep in mind says Jason Beltran of Tyson’s Motor Corporation in Shorewood, IL when shopping for their teen is Safety, Dependability and Price.

“What car would I recommend?” said Beltran, “that would depend on price.”

Price is a key factor when car shopping. Consider preowned or going without the sun roof. Look into trade-in options or saving longer for a larger down payment. Figure out what works best for your family.

Dependability is just as important. Costly repairs could defeat the purpose of buying a cheaper car when more time is spent in the service garage then the school parking lot. And no father wants to get a phone call from his 16 year old daughter informing him she’s had to call for a tow while on the side of the highway By far the most important though is safety. While most teens are concerned about how fast or how sharp their car looks, it is the parents who are cornered about safety features. A good tool for this is the Live Chat feature offered by Tysons which allow parents to get information on different makes and models before their teens can even look at color.

Beltran did go on to say that if he did have to choose, he would pick the Jeep Cherokee which exhibits side air bags, dual front air bags, knee airbags, overhead air bags, anti-whiplash front head restraints and 10 other safety and security features.

Goshen College

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – The name of the game at this time of the year for girls volleyball teams is steady improvement, and in that regard, both Joliet West and Lincoln-Way West are pleased with their progress thus far.

While the Tigers were the better squad during Thursday’s match between the two, the youthful Warriors made sure they had to earn the victory, 25-21, 25-19.

“It had been nine days since we last played, so it was a long layoff,” Tigers coach Alan Mart said. “We had some things to work on, and you could see some of those – and some others, not so much.

I thought that we played well in Game One when we didn’t have unforced errors. Our blocking was solid, which is something that we have worked on.

“In Game Two, I thought Dawn [Warriors coach Murphy] made some nice adjustments and we didn’t adjust.

We talked about how we’d need to understand that teams are going to make ingame adjustments and we’d have to know how to do that when you start playing the big dogs. Overall, I’m pleased but not satisfied. It was a good win, and hopefully we’ll build on it.”

The Tigers (7-3) got Brittany Schutter (four aces) back for the first time since the second match, and Kelly Doran played her first match at the rightside.

They also received good efforts from Loyola University commitment Lauren Stefanski (eight kills, four aces, three blocks), Elexis Coleman (five kills, five blocks) and Nicole Ochs (eight digs).

“Hopefully, we’ve reached a turning point in our season,” Stefanski said. “We’re all starting to click. We’re a close-knit team, and we all come together in every single game. We’re family and play

Joliet West’s Lauren Stefanski spikes the ball against Lincoln-Way West during Thursday’s match at Lincoln-Way in New Lenox. as one and we love each other, and that definitely shows on the court. If we can clean up our errors, I think that we could be dominating.”

In the opening set, the Tigers used a 5-0 run during a Stefanski service and a 6-0 spurt during a Schutter serve to build up a decisive, 21-13 advantage.

But the Warriors (4-4), who started two sophomores and played another, continued to battle and used a late 5-0 run to close to within 24-21 before the Tigers finished.

“Our goal is to progress with every game,” Warriors coach Dawn Murphy said. “In game one, we struggled handling Stefanski and Schutter; but in game two, we handled them better, which shows the learning curve – and it also shows their age. When you have three sophomores out there against D-I commitments, I’m proud of how they adjusted.

“We’re like the fly that you can never catch. We just keep buzzing around and are trying to make things happen. It’s the attitude that they bring to the court. I was proud that we took them out of system and were able to hold their big-hitters down.

Blocker to blocker, we’re just not where they are at this point, so we adjusted our game around that.”

The Warriors were paced

by Katie Davis (five kills, nine assists, five digs), Kerrigan Fritz (four kills) and Olivia DeGroot (11 digs).

After the Tigers jumped out to 5-0 and 7-1 leads in the second set, it appeared there might not be any more drama. But the Warriors closed to within 10-9 and 20-18 before the visitors finally pulled away in the late going.

“I feel like we’re finally getting it,” Coleman said.

“In past seasons, we didn’t know how to put everything together, and the big thing is teamwork and being positive. On defense, we’re picking up balls that we probably wouldn’t get last year. We’re finally starting to play to our potential. We’re not there yet, but we’re getting there.”

The Tigers will find out more about whether they’re moving in the right direction in their next match, when they host talented Lincoln-Way North on Tuesday.

“I’m glad that our team is finally starting to come together as a unit,” Schutter said. “Finally, I feel like our team is one big family, and I love that since we’re so much more dedicated and want to get better for each other. It feels like everyone is starting to play for each other. They’re not thinking about what success they can bring to themselves but for the team.”

GOSHEN, Ind. – Returning to action for the first time in 10 days, the University of St. Francis women’s soccer team defeated host Goshen College, 3-1, in nonconference play Thursday afternoon.

After a scoreless first half, the Saints got on the board when sophomore Leslie Rueda dribbled through four defenders and scored from 15 yards out nine minutes into the second period for her third goal of the season.

St. Francis (2-3) made it 2-0 in the 75th minute on a long direct kick by sophomore Alex Truhlar (Plainfield South), her third goal Junior Alyssa Hudik later collected her first goal as a Saint.

USF sophomore goalkeeper Jessica Kiely made five saves.

GIRLS VOLLEYBALL: LINCOLN-WAY EAST DEF. LINCOLN-WAY CENTRAL 2-0 (25-18, 25-21)

By KAITLYN JASNICA kjasnica@shawmedia.com

• Friday, September 19, 2014

NEW LENOX – Thursday marked the first Lincoln-Way East volleyball game in nine days. It did not look like it, however. East never trailed in securing a 25-18, 25-21 Southwest Suburban victory over Lincoln-Way Central.

In the first set, the scores stayed close until the Knights made some unforced errors.

Unforced errors plagued them in the second set as well.

Griffins middle blocker Sarah Dobrich helped earn the first three points of the second set. The junior had a solo block, slammed down an overpass and helped Tessa Trento block a hitter.

Dobrich ended the night with five kills and three blocks. Her immediate impact in the second set gave her team momentum.

“The opportunity presented itself, so I went for it.” Dobrich said. “It was great that the team had energy and we came together. There’s always a big competition between the Lincoln-Way schools. Center and East, it’s a big rivalry. It’s fun to play against them so you have to get in the winning frame of mind.”

East junior Trento also made a huge impact. The rightside hitter ended with five kills. Her biggest kill came off serve-receive in the second set. She nailed the ball down line, making the score 22-16.

Even though Trento is playing her first year of varsity, she has a positive mindset.

“Just play fearless,” she said. “Play like you’re never going to play again and put the ball in the court. If the ball comes back, our defense is very strong so they will take care of it.”

Senior captains Leah Seielstad and Carly Collins also contributed to the win. Collins helped the defense with seven digs and Seielstad ended with 11 assists.

Even though East earned the victory, the coach saw some areas that she believes should be improved upon.

Romeoville at Plainfield C. big for both VIEWS Dick Goss What we have learned about Southwest Prairie Conference football in recent years is Oswego rules.

The Panthers have won 22 straight conference games and have not lost in the league since falling to Minooka, 27-21, in Week 9 of the 2010 season.

Beyond that, we also know some wild and crazy games are in the offing, year after year. Minooka’s 33-30 victory over Romeoville last week is a shining example.

The Spartans trailed, 27-16, early in the fourth quarter but scored twice, taking the lead on quarterback Kelvin Jones’ 1-yard sneak with 1:56 left. However, the Indians recovered and marched 65 yards in nine plays to the winning score, a 21-yard pass from John Carnagio to Alex Roop.

Romeoville’s ability to rebound from heartbreak will be tested Friday night when the Spartans visit Plainfield Central. Both are 0-3, and the loser will be one game away from playoff elimination.

The winner, on the other hand, remains in the SPC race for another week and maintains hopes of qualifying for the playoffs. Early analysis

Romeoville’s Kelvin Jones avoids Minooka’s Matthew Brozovich during the second quarter of Friday’s game at Romeoville High School.

suggests both teams will have sufficient playoff points that five wins will qualify.

You might say it’s so early in the season that playoffs should not be in the discussion yet. But that’s not necessarily the case.

You never know whether injuries will play a role in your team’s fate or if they will strike some of your future opponents. You don’t whether teams that start 2-1 or 3-0 will maintain that pace.

You don’t know if a team that opens 0-3 may suddenly right the ship and get on a winning streak.

Plainfield Central has lost to Marmion, 26-7, to St. Charles North, 14-9, and to Oswego, 23-8. Those three teams are a combined 8-1; and to the Indians’ benefit, they are the only SPC team to have Oswego out of the way. Minooka takes on the Panthers on Friday night.

Considering Central’s

Lathan Goumas for Shaw Media

nonconference schedule, the Wildcats’ results to date indicate they can be competitive in most of their remaining games.

Romeoville is much the same. The Spartans have been blown out once, but that was

by Bolingbrook. No shame in that.

Central and Romeoville both are in a position where this is a must-win. Whoever survives may begin getting the feeling they can be a factor in the SPC. The Spartans have more experienced offensive weapons, beginning with quarterback Kelvin Jones, and might have the advantage for that reason. But this may become

one of those wild SPC games that go down to the wire, the type we seem to get every season.

Week 3 was huge for the Joliet area in general. Our top teams all showed well. In fact, those ranked 1 through 9 in our weekly rankings all won, some impressively.

Kickoff: 7 p.m. Friday Last year: Romeoville 50, Plainfield Central 12 Records: Romeoville (0-3, 0-1 in Southwest Prairie), Plainfield Central (0-3, 0-1) The skinny: Romeoville is coming off a difficult-to-swallow 33-30 loss to Minooka, while Plainfield Central played well against Oswego before falling, 23-8. The winner will feel it still is in the SPC and playoff hunt. Central’s defense will be challenged by an explosive Romeoville attack led by quarterback Kelvin Jones.

The pick: Romeoville

Kickoff: 7:15 p.m. Friday Last year: Sandburg 36, Joliet West 28 Records: Joliet West (2-1, 0-1 in SouthWest Suburban Blue), Sandburg (2-1, 1-0) The skinny: Joliet West is out to erase memories of last week’s 41-0 loss to Homewood-Flossmoor. The Tigers, who have playoff aspirations, will face a passing combination of Avery Verble to Adam Valiga that clicked for three scores in last week’s 21-10 win over Lockport.

The pick: Sandburg

Last year: Did not meet Records: Marmion (3-0), Providence (3-0) AP rankings: Marmion No. 17 in Class 6A, Providence No. 2 in Class 7A The skinny: After beating Mount Carmel, 33-14, Providence is firmly entrenched as one of the state’s top-ranked teams. But the Celtics face a formidable nonconference foe in Marmion, which defeated touted St. Francis, 17-13, last week as Lucas Warren rushed for 108 yards and two touchdowns.

The pick: Providence

AROUND THE GRIDIRON

rankings is difficult. The battle this week was for the No. 10 spot. We could have justified Minooka, Joliet West or Morris in that spot. We decided on the Indians.

With one-third of the season in the books, my feeling is this area has more depth of good teams than I had thought would be the case, and our top handful of teams – as usual – will be candidates to do significant damage come playoff time.

Of course, that’s with the big “if,” according to virtually every area coach I have spoken with: “If we stay healthy.”

VIATOR AT JCA Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. Friday at Memorial Stadium Last year: JCA 35, St. Viator 20 Records: St. Viator (2-1, 1-0 in East Suburban Catholic), JCA (2-1, 1-0) AP rankings: JCA No. 1 in Class 5A The skinny: St. Viator piled up 275 rushing yards, and Tyler Johnston passed for another 200 yards in a 35-28 ESCC victory last week over Marist. Receiver Ben Dickey caught eight passes for 99 yards and two touchdowns and ran 19 yards for a score. JCA’s rushing game came alive with 374 yards in last week’s 34-14 win over Carmel.

The pick: JCA

Kickoff: 7 p.m Friday Last year: Plainfield South 41, Plainfield North 34 Records: Plainfield South (0-3, 0-1 in Southwest Prairie), Plainfield North (2-1, 1-0) The skinny: Plainfield North, with area rushing leader Quintin Hoosman, has been playing well defensively for the most part. The Tigers, who hope to challenge for the SPC title, will face a South offense that has managed seven points total in three games.

East belted Stagg, 44-0, last week as running back Liam Morrissey, and receiver Jeremy Nelson combined for five TDs. Lockport quarterback Jeremy Quade has accounted for more than 200 yards per game passing plus rushing.

JOLIET – Undisputed Strength Co. and CrossFit Joliet, with the cooperation of Joliet Central High School, will host a CrossFit competition at 1 p.m. Saturday at the Joliet Central track that circles the football field. Admission is $5 for all spectators, with proceeds going to the Joliet Central football program.

In CrossFit, athletes compete while displaying movements such as strength, speed, weight lifting and gymnastics.

The movements then are performed while attacking a specific energy system (metabolic conditioning) and a specific rep scheme.

“This CrossFit competition is no joke. These athletes train to compete, and they are coming from all over Chicago just to do so,” owner Brandon Kelly said. “On Saturday, spectators are going to witness high-level athletes perform on a large playing field. I’m very excited.”

There are different levels of CrossFit, from beginner to advanced, to better one’s physical

Bears shift focus to Jets’ rushing

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@chicagofootball.com LAKE FOREST – The Bears’ early-season jaunt against some of the league’s best rushing attacks from 2013 continues with the team that has the early league lead in running the ball, the Jets.

Through two games, the Jets are averaging 5.0 yards a carry and 179.0 yards a game.

Chris Ivory has rushed for 145 yards (6.3-yard average) and Chris Johnson has added 89 yards on 25 carries.

Quarterback Geno Smith has 17 carries for 64 yards.

The Bears’ run defense was stout in the red zone against the 49ers, but still gave up some big runs and is allowing 5.3 yards a carry through two games, so it’s no surprise their Thursday practice focused on stopping the Jets’ run.

“They have a tremendous running game with Chris Johnson and Ivory. They have a community backfield.

They’re violent running the football, they’re going to try

Chicago Football Now Watch Hub Arkush and the rest of our coverage team break down this weekend’s Bears game on “Chicago Football Now” at 10:30 a.m. Saturday on WCIU The U or at 2:30 p.m. Saturday on The U Too. and run the football,” coach Marc Trestman said. “We spent the day working hard on run defense, No. 1.”

Trestman was pleased with the tackling the Bears showed against San Francisco, and they’ll need to keep it up, especially against Ivory.

“These guys take pride in running the football. They’ve got a number of really good players that they can give the ball to and get production in the run game,” said defensive coordinator Mel Tucker.

“They have a very physical offensive line, a hard-nosed, ground-and-pound type of mentality. You can see that on tape with these guys.

“We have to know which back is in the game and have to set an edge and build a

wall inside. They do apply pressure to you with all of their run schemes. They also have the read-option available to them.”

If Johnson is in the game, the Bears should be ready for him to bounce to find open field, while Ivory will go in between the tackles. Then there’s Smith and yet another team that can beat you with the zone read.

“We have another quarterback that has the ability to run, get outside the pocket, make things happen, so we’ve got to keep Geno inside the pocket,” Trestman said.

“They’ll also double-up and use Geno and Michael (Vick) at the same time, so a lot of issues there just in the run game, keeping the quarterback in the pocket, stopping a running quarterback.”

Injury update: Jared Allen (back), Roberto Garza (ankle), Brandon Marshall (ankle), Sherrick McManis (quad), Jeremiah Ratliff (concussion), Trevor Scott (foot) and Matt Slauson (ankle) sat out practice.

“They have a tremendous running game with Chris Johnson and Ivory.

They have a community backfield. They’re violent running the football, they’re going to try and run the football.”

Marc Testman Bears coach Alshon Jeffery (hamstring), Chris Conte (shoulder) and Shea McClellin (hand) were limited, and Josh Morgan (groin) practice in full after missing Sunday’s game against the 49ers.

For the Jets, wide receiver Eric Decker (hamstring) did not practice. Cornerback Dee Milliner (ankle), running back Chris Johnso n (ankle) and center Nick Mangold (shoulder) were limited.

JOLIET – University of St. Francis art professor Michael “Chester” Costello recently received an Illinois Arts Council Project Grant, which Costello used to hire a recent USF graduate to help archive his work, he said.

Among the photographs, documents, drawings, previously published works, blogs and journals are about 400 portraits of students, staff and faculty Costello has photographed since 2002. The majority of the subjects are ages 18 to 25, Costello said, excluding some of the staff photos.

Knowing the success many of these people have since achieved is part of Costello’s satisfaction in capturing them during their time at USF. McGraw-Hill Publishing recently hired two former students, Costello said.

“A lot of my work is documentary in vein,” Costello said.

The portraits also depict how USF student demographics have changed through the years, he added.

“Once it was predominantly white,” Costello said. “Now there is a huge Latino influence.”

The diversity extends to religion, too, at this Joliet Catholic university, he added. “I’ve got kids that are Hindu and others from the Islamic faith.”

Costello’s goal is eventually to seek essay contributions from people formerly associated with USF and combine those writings with the photographs into a book. A portrait class Costello taught soon after his tenure in 1999 inspired the portrait series, he said.

Other portraits can be viewed at alamo-costello.net/portfolio-item/university. Visit the complete archive at alamo-costello.net.

QUICKCRITIC REVIEWS OF NEW MOVIES ON SCREEN NOW

“THE MAZE RUNNER” STARRING: Dylan O’Brien, Kaya Scodelario, Will Poulter

PLOT: Thomas is deposited in a community of boys after his memory is erased, soon learning they’re all trapped in a maze that will require him to join forces with fellow “runners” for a shot at escape.

RATED: PG-13 for thematic elements and intense sequences of sci-fi violence and action, including some disturbing images TIME: 1 hour, 53 minutes VERDICT: If you see one film about walled-in males this fall, it should be the savage and powerful British prison drama “Starred Up,” a superlatively acted father-son story played out behind bars and starring up-and-coming Jack O’Connell. Not many are likely to make that choice, though, as “The Maze Runner,” based on the James Dashner 2009 fantasy novel, will surely multiply the business of “Starred Up” many times over. To be fair, there isn’t anything inherently wrong with “The Maze Runner,” directed by special effects-veteran Wes Ball. It’s just that it does so little to find its own path separate from its dystopia brethren. All of the recent youngadult formulas are adhered to here: the teenage rebellion against tradition, the coming-of-age metaphors, the heavy sequel-baiting. Dylan O’Brien, best known as one of the stars of MTV’s “Teen Wolf,” stars as Thomas, a newbie to a strange prison called “The Glade” – a pastoral park surrounded by a monolith concrete maze. “The Maze Runner” succeeds most in its “Lord of the Flies”-like collection of teenagers.

(Thomas Brodie-Sangster and Blake Cooper are among the distinct faces.) There’s a pleasantly low-fi, bare-bones kind of storytelling here, at least before the movie’s mysteries are boringly explained – another apocalypse to parse.

The maze, too, is a letdown. Given that it’s the central conceit, one expects more than domino rows of big cinderblocks. Jack Nicholson’s Jack Torrance, who so memorably stalked the snowy hedge maze of “The Shining,” wouldn’t bat an eye at these drab corridors.

– The Associated Press

“THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU” STARRING: Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Jane Fonda

PLOT: When their father passes

away, four grown siblings are forced to return to their childhood home and live under the same roof together for a week, along with their over-sharing mother and an assortment of spouses, exes and might-have-beens.

RATED: R for language, sexual content and some drug use TIME: 1 hour, 43 minutes VERDICT: Somebody dies. Family gathers to mourn. Everybody’s stuck in one house, with all their quirks and foibles and enough emotional baggage to fill an aircraft carrier. What could go wrong? Ha ha.

What couldn’t? This scenario could be a drama or a comedy – or, in the case of “This Is Where I Leave You,” both: a dramedy. In the best dramedies, of course, laughter and tears alternate seamlessly and gracefully, and you leave both entertained and enlightened. Alas, this isn’t that film. Instead, “This Is Where I Leave You,” directed by Shawn Levy and adapted from Jonathan Tropper’s novel by the author himself, seems to be constantly questioning – or doubting – what it is. Which means that just when it enters into some meaty issues that deserve serious treatment, it gets nervous and falls into forced comedy – or full-on slapstick. Which can get grating.

And it’s a shame, because the film has an A-list ensemble cast, headed

by Jason Bateman and Tina Fey, but also featuring nice work from Jane Fonda, Connie Britton, Adam Driver, Rose Byrne, Corey Stoll, Debra Monk and more. It’s the scenes of over-obvious mayhem – or ultra-thick sappiness – that ultimately hurt an appealing film. Does every conflict have to involve people screaming and shouting, then falling over each other in a brawl?

That’s not to say the film isn’t often enjoyable. It’s a pleasure to watch pros like these interact. But at one point, after a particularly silly brawl, poor Wendy (Fey) asks if everyone can just act more normal. And she’s right. It would have made for a more interesting film.

– The Associated Press

“A WALK AMONG THE TOMBSTONES” STARRING: Liam Neeson, Dan Stevens, David Harbour

PLOT: Private investigator Matthew Scudder is hired by a drug kingpin to find out who kidnapped and murdered his wife.

RATED: R for strong violence, disturbing images, language and

brief nudity

TIME: 1 hour, 53 minutes VERDICT: In between doing “Taken” sequels and cashing paychecks for dross like “Battleship” and “Wrath of the Titans,” Liam Neeson manages to sneak in projects of real quality – films that remind viewers of the strength, sensitivity and wounded vulnerability that made us love him. “A Walk Among the Tombstones” shows every sign of becoming one, until it clatters fatally off the rails. As Matt Scudder, a detective created by the prolific New York mystery writer Lawrence Block, Neeson has found a sturdy, credible alter ego, and in the hands of director Scott Frank, he becomes a genuinely original movie hero who’s a throwback to another era, a rumpled, off-white knight full of grim wit. The look, style and smarts of “A Walk Among the Tombstones” seem like such a refreshingly toned-down departure from the outlandishness of Neeson’s “Taken” franchise that it’s all the more dismaying when the film shifts radically into a sadistic tableau of blood and gore. It’s a truism these days that every action-adventure winds up being “Transformers.” Apparently, now every urban thriller has to end up as “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.” In the case of “A Walk Among the Tombstones,” that means what has been a relatively sophisticated, quietly effective vehicle for Neeson at his best veers into the kind of hyperbolic nonsense of Neeson at his worst.

With luck, Matt Scudder will return – with more of the same patter, and much less splatter.

– The Washington Post

“DOLPHIN TALE 2” STARRING: Morgan Freeman, Ashley Judd, Nathan Gamble, Harry Connick Jr. PLOT: The team of people who saved Winter’s life reassemble in the wake of her surrogate mother’s passing in order to find her a companion so she can remain at the Clearwater Marine Hospital.

RATED: PG for some mild thematic elements TIME: 1 hour, 47 minutes VERDICT: Containing all the elements that made the 2011 original boy and his dolphin story a hit with audiences and critics, Charles Martin Smith’s “Dolphin Tale 2” is another engaging film inspired by the real-life inhabitants

of the Clearwater Marine Aquarium.

Bringing together the original cast, headed by Harry Connick Jr., and, of course, Winter, the remarkable dolphin outfitted with a groundbreaking prosthetic tail who put the CMA on the map, the sequel again eschews cloying dramatics in favor of a straight-ahead, more docudrama feel. The nonetheless rousing results should make a splash with family audiences, who were responsible for “Dolphin Tale’s” tidy $72.3 million domestic haul. This time around, Smith also dons a screenwriter’s cap in recounting the subsequent rescue and rehabilitation of injured marine animals brought to the actual Florida Gulf Coast facility. It has been several years since the film’s young Sawyer Nelson (Nathan Gamble) first bonded with the dolphin who had lost her tail after becoming ensnared in a crab trap, but the death of Panama, an elderly dolphin who was both companion and surrogate mother to Winter, has left the younger dolphin despondent and uncooperative. The clock is ticking for CMA’s Dr. Clay Haskett (Connick, Jr.) to abide by USDA regulations and find a female companion suitable for pairing with Winter or see the inspirational creature moved to another aquatic facility. Smith focuses a great deal of attention on the details – the day-to-day minutiae of the facility’s rescue and rehab work. Echoing that unadorned, matter-of-fact approach is the crisp cinematography and graceful score by “Dolphin Tale” newcomers, Daryn Okada and Rachel Portman, respectively.

“THE DROP” STARRING: Tom Hardy, Noomi Rapace, James Gandolfini

PLOT: Bob Saginowski finds himself at the center of a robbery gone awry and entwined in an investigation that digs deep into the neighborhood’s past where friends, families and foes all work together to make a living – no matter the cost.

RATED: R for some strong violence and pervasive language TIME: 1 hour, 46 minutes VERDICT: “The Drop,” a taut, atmospheric, exceedingly well-written thriller adapted by Dennis Lehane from one of his short stories, commits one of the most egregious sins in fiction, introducing an adorable puppy early

in the proceedings, only to trot it out at regular intervals to stoke the audience’s growing sense of impending doom. It’s a credit to Lehane’s screenplay, director Michael R. Roskam’s restraint and a superb cast led by the masterful Tom Hardy that “The Drop” earns every sad-eyed glance and heart-tugging whimper. As Hardy’s character, a bartender named Bob Saginowski, explains, there are corners of his neighborhood “that no one ever thinks about.” He occupies one such corner. Bob’s watchful solitude is punctured one night when he encounters that irresistible little pit bull.

With the help of a pretty neighbor named Nadia (Noomi Rapace), Bob begins to care for the dog, simultaneously becoming involved in a years-old crime investigation.

There’s no question that we want Bob to triumph, along with his new pet – which, it’s true, really is a good-looking dog.

“THE NOVEMBER MAN” STARRING: Pierce Brosnan, Luke Bracey, Olga Kurylenko

PLOT: An ex-CIA operative is brought back in on a very personal mission and finds himself pitted against his former pupil in a deadly game involving high level CIA officials and the Russian president-elect.

RATED: R for strong violence including a sexual assault, language, sexuality/nudity and brief drug use TIME: 1 hour, 48 minutes VERDICT: One-time 007 Pierce Brosnan embraces a darker take on spycraft in Roger Donaldson’s “The November Man,” playing a former CIA agent whose autumnal nickname acknowledges his tendency to leave few alive when he passes through a town. “November Man” won’t do anything like Bond’s box office, but will satisfy the actor’s fans and moviegoers biding their time until the next topshelf le Carre-style thriller. Though the film’s cat-and-mouse scenes hardly compare to those in a Bourne movie, they’re enjoyable and only occasionally ridiculous. This episode in Granger’s “November Man” series, “There Are No Spies,” was published two years after that, and Michael Finch and Karl Gajdusek’s script does little to disguise the fact that we’ve seen and heard all of this many, many times since.

Yanchick worked on and installed the newly painted replacement panels of the Irish Heritage mural. The mural originally was designed by Kathleen Farrell.

The panels had been damaged by water and had to be completely repainted on new sign board. The mural is on the north side of the Will County State’s Attorney’s Office at 121 N. Chicago St. This project was made possible by FCPA fundraising and the city of Joliet. For information, call Farrell at 815-768-6034.

New music technology program offered at JJC JOLIET – The Joliet Junior

College Fine Arts Department is now offering a state-of-the-art music technology program.

JJC’s program – which contains classes that teach production and sound skills, along with the fundamentals of music and music business – is designed to help students attain careers as live sound engineers, sound editors, audio operators, composers, music producers, music teachers, or small music recording business owners.

JJC offered music technology classes in the past, but this is the first year the college has implemented a program. According to David Nuccio, program coordinator, music technology

is not only a new concept for JJC but also is a new field of study altogether. Colleges and universities across the country are just starting to implement these types of classes and programs into their curriculum.

Students who graduate from JJC’s music technology program will get a certificate of completion, and with that they can either begin their career search or transfer to a four-year school.

For information about the music technology program, contact Nuccio at dnuccio@jjc.edu or call 815-280-2569. For information about JJC’s Fine Arts Department, visit www.jjc.edu/info/fine-arts.

PUZZLES SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

The dangerous no-cost play

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Marcel Proust, a French author best known for his novel “In Search of Lost Time,” said, “If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time.”

At the bridge table, you must “dream” of the best bids and plays. Sometimes they will seem to be dangerous, but bridge is not a game for cowards. If a bid or play looks best, go for it and ignore the torpedoes!

In today’s deal, East has to try to defeat four hearts. West leads the club queen. South wins with dummy’s king, draws three rounds of trumps (West following throughout), and shifts to the spade king from an initial holding of king-doubleton. What should East do after winning with his spade ace?

South’s two-heart rebid showed at least a six-card suit and a minimum opening, usually 12-14 high-card points.

South can see 11 winners: three spades, six hearts and two clubs. But he might lose four tricks: one spade and three diamonds. However, when East gets in with his spade ace, leading away from the diamond K-J looks dangerous, and many players always return their partner’s suit (although that is much less likely to be right in a suit contract than in no-trump). Here, though, East should realize that leading back a club won’t defeat the contract.

Also, from the bidding, South cannot have the diamond ace to go with his spade king and heart A-K-Q. East must shift to the diamond three, which works like a dream.

Count high-card points to place unseen honors.

ADVICE

41

Dear Abby: I had suspicions my dad was cheating on my mom, and when she found a mysterious earring in the house one day, I knew I had to find the proof. I went into his iPad and checked his email/ Facebook and IMs and found he apparently has a girlfriend. She works in his office and is also married with a family.

Dad found out I broke into his iPad and confronted me. Instead of apologizing for cheating on my mom, he told me I need to think about what I’m doing because I could be ruining a bunch of lives.

I think I should tell my mom because she doesn’t deserve this, but I’m not sure how to tell her.

HELP! – Found The Proof In Georgia Dear Found The Proof: There is a saying, “The best defense is a good offense.” That’s the playbook your father is following by trying to make you feel guilty for HIS

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips transgression.

Because your mother found another woman’s jewelry in her home, she may already have a hunch that something is wrong. It is not your job to save anybody’s marriage. Tell your mother what you have discovered, because her marriage is threatened and she deserves to know so she can decide how she wants to handle it.

Dear Abby: My husband, “Evan,” and my mother do not get along.

Mom came to help out, and she and Evan engaged in tense conversations concerning politics and religion. I asked them to please not talk about such things with each other, but they didn’t listen. Two

days after my arrival home with the baby, they had a huge argument and Mom walked out. She has never returned to our home.

Since then, I have never had a holiday with my parents. I have tried asking them both to apologize or talk with each other, to no avail. What suggestions do you have to repair the relationship? – In The Middle In Colorado Dear In The Middle: From where I sit, you’re not in the middle – your husband and your mother are on the OUTS. Much as you might wish differently, the only people who can fix this are the two of them. Until they reorganize their priorities, you have no choice but to create your own family during holidays by getting together and celebrating with friends or other relatives.

Essential tremor is aggravating but rarely serious Dear Doctor K: My father was recently diagnosed with essential tremor. Is this the same thing as Parkinson’s disease? If not, what is the difference?

Dear Reader: Essential tremor is a brain condition that causes tremors: uncontrollable shaky movements of the hands, limbs, head or voice. It is usually mild and is very common, often running in families. It usually starts later in life, but when it runs in families it can start in young adulthood.

In contrast, Parkinson’s disease is a serious neurological condition that also causes a tremor. It is much less common than essential tremor. Parkinson’s disease also can cause severe difficulty with walking and most movements of the arms and hands, and can be accompanied by dementia.

Essential tremor is an aggravation that occasionally interferes with a person’s life. When the symptoms of essential tremor first appear, many people understandably worry that they may be getting Parkinson’s disease.

How are the tremors that are seen in essential tremor and in Parkinson’s disease different?

Essential tremor usually involves

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff the shaking of one or both hands or the head. The shaking is not always dramatic. Essential tremor is most noticeable when the body is in action, as when you are writing, typing or pouring a beverage. It is less prominent or absent at rest.

In contrast, Parkinson’s tremors are more noticeable at rest. The hands of people with Parkinson’s shake when they are resting. But when they reach out to grab or hold something, such as a cup of coffee, the shaking stops.

Essential tremor is a permanent condition that typically worsens over time. It may gradually spread from one part of your body to other parts. Most people experience only mild or moderate symptoms, but in others, it can cause substantial disability. A patient of mine who was an electrician developed essential tremor in his early 60s and became unable to work.

The great actress Katherine Hepburn developed essential tremor that affected her head,

hands and voice. She hated it, but her skill as an actress was undiminished.

Medicines called beta-blockers (often used to treat high blood pressure) are the most effective treatment for essential tremor. Beta-blockers usually improve the tremor so that it doesn’t interfere with normal activities. In some people, the tremor disappears completely.

Other drugs that may help include the anti-seizure drugs primidone (Myidone, Mysoline) and gabapentin (Neurontin), and the anti-anxiety medicine lorazepam (Ativan).

Stress and caffeine may make the tremor worse. Drinking small amounts of alcohol may temporarily relieve the tremor.

Certain medicines may also worsen your father’s tremor.

They include stimulants, lithium, some antidepressants and thyroid hormone. Have your father talk to his doctor if any of these medications could be worsening his symptoms.

Friend has low self-esteem Dr. Wallace: I want to help my best friend, but I don’t know what to do. We are both 16 and have been friends for more than five years.

We tell each other all of our deep, dark secrets.

In the past six months, my friend has had three boyfriends and has had sex with all of them.

This is surprising since she was a virgin until she dated boyfriend No. 1. When I asked her why she was so promiscuous she said she didn’t know, but that she was not proud of her record.

Why do you think she is so sexually active, and what can I do to help her change her ways? – Nameless, Hammond, Indiana Dear Nameless: Teen girls who are sexually active with a number of different partners almost always have extremely low self-esteem. These teens are trying to gain acceptance, or to become popular by giving of themselves so freely.

Speak honestly with your friend and try to uncover the reason she has a low self-esteem, then together work on improving how she feels about herself.

Make sure she knows that you care about her very much and that she can go to you any time she needs advice, or even a few words of encouragement.

Dr. Wallace: Terry and I broke up over the summer because we had a lot of arguments. We had been dating for three months. I cared for him very much and when we parted, I had to miss school for two days because I felt terrible and I looked like a wreck.

When I returned to

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace school, I got the shock of my life. Terry was now dating my best friend. To make matters worse, they both ignored me and they still do. Last night, I was invited to a birthday party and I was just sure they would not be there, but I was wrong. Not only were they there, they were holding hands when they thought I was looking at them.

This bothered me so much that I called my brother to give me a ride home after only staying at the party for about an hour. I guess I’m saying that I’m hurting because I’ve got a “broken heart” and I don’t know what to do to mend it. I’m tired of hurting and I’m tired of crying and I’d like some good advice from you.

Somehow I can’t get Terry off of my mind, and to think that he’s going out with my now “ex-best friend” makes it even worse. – Nameless, Erie, Pennsylvania

Dear Nameless: Don’t sit at home feeling sorry for yourself.

Spend time with other friends, get involved in community or church charity work to help others, take a CPR course with the Red Cross and, of course, date other guys if the opportunity is there and you like what you see.

In a few weeks, you’ll be saying, “Terry who?”

DAILY DISH HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – It’s time to take action. You know what you want, so stop wasting your energy and start turning your dream into a reality. Planning is useful, but only if you follow through. Stop waiting for someone else to do the work for you.

Don’t stop until you reach your goal.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Get out and join people who share your passions.

Whether it is dancing, hiking, music or another pursuit, you’ll find a group of like-minded souls to join.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Do things your own way and present your ideas with confidence. Your charisma is high and will help you garner interest from all sorts of unexpected parties.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Concentrate on your personal issues. Envy and jealousy of others’ accomplishments will lead to frustration and disappointment. Focus on your strengths, not your weaknesses.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Love is in the stars. You may be feeling exuberant, but don’t be careless. Overspending and overindulgence are not a replacement for discipline and discretion. Entice others with your charm, not your money.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Don’t postpone dealing with urgent financial or legal issues. Trust your intuition and address these matters promptly. Staying fit and healthy will reduce the chance of minor illnesses.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – You are not getting the whole story. There will be a difference between what you see and what you hear. Someone is likely to mislead or discredit you. Do your own fact-finding.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You will discover a unique way of improving your job prospects. Act on any opportunity that could advance your status. Prove your talent through demonstration to those in higher positions.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – You will be amazed at the results you achieve with an innovative project. Your powers of persuasion are strong, so enlist others to help you with your ideas.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Diplomacy will take you a long way today. Stubbornness will get you nowhere and may make things worse. Work toward a compromise. Be tolerant and understanding.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – A romantic relationship will take an unexpected turn for the better. This is not the time to sit on the sidelines. Let your heart guide you down the right path.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – If you are discontented with the situation at home, do some soul-searching. It’s probable that you are part of the problem. Be prepared to apologize and compromise.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Your nerves will be a little strained. Don’t abandon your ambitions. Be ready to showcase your abilities so that someone who can improve your career will see your potential.

‘The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Them’: Pulled together, falling apart

By MICHAEL O’SULLIVAN The Washington Post The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby” debuted at the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival as two films.

Billed as a work in progress, the movies took the form of twin chapters of a single narrative. Running a little over three hours, the films – subtitled “Him” and “Her” – told the tale of a couple in crisis, spinning events, in “Rashomon”-like fashion, from the respective vantage points of a lost and lonely New York restaurateur named Conor (James McAvoy) and his estranged, depressive wife, Eleanor (Jessica Chastain).

After distribution rights were picked up by the Weinstein Co., first-time filmmaker Ned Benson recut the he-said, she-said saga into a single, two-hour package synthesizing both narratives. “The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Them” made its bow at this spring’s Cannes Film Festival, and has now arrived in American theaters. Next month, there are plans for a limited release of “Him” and “Her.” Knowing this back story – or even making the herculean effort to ultimately see all three films – is not, strictly speaking, necessary to appreciate what arguably could be called the final version of the film. Yet the shadow of its past informs the latest incarnation of “Rigby,” a deeply moving, beautifully acted and ultimately mournful meditation on the gulfs that open between people, especially when tragedy falls like a cleaver.

After a brief prologue featuring a silly date early in Conor and Eleanor’s courtship, the real drama opens in earnest, cutting abruptly to a scene of Eleanor attempting to kill herself by jumping off a bridge. That’s her first “disappearance” of the film, which

Jessica Chastain and James McAvoy play an unhappily married couple in “The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Them.” later refers to the fact that she leaves Conor, moving back in with her parents (William Hurt and Isabelle Huppert) even after she is released from the hospital.

How we got from that happy scene to the later ones of sorrow and separation is the substance of the rest of the movie. “The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby” excavates Conor and Eleanor’s history – not, as you might expect, by flashbacks. Rather, it peels the onion by showing the couple trying – painfully, incompletely, perhaps impossibly – to rip off whatever scab is left from the wound that has been inflicted on them by fate, or that they have inflicted on each other, even unknowingly.

The tragedy that befell them soon becomes clear, although its precise circumstances are left to the imagination. As with 2010’s “Rabbit Hole,” an equally powerful story of a husband and wife torn apart by misfortune, the rift that drives Conor and El-

eanor apart isn’t necessarily because one blames the other.

In grief, the film hints, we are alone, perhaps unreachably so.

As Conor later recalls, he and his wife were a million miles away from each other while living in the same apartment.

Benson suggests that this may not be a condition of their particular situation. By making three movies – two showcasing different sides of the story, with a third integrating them, while failing to find a happy ending – the filmmaker underscores what may be a universal truth: We are united only in our isolation. Benson drives home this argument with his supporting cast, with includes fine, subtle performances by Ciaran Hinds as Conor’s father, a man moving on from his third wife, and Jess Weixler as Eleanor’s sister, a single mother.

Other characters reinforce the notion that regret and recrimination aren’t personality

flaws, but features of human nature.

Like the Beatles song that inspired the title character’s name, “The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby” is about lonely people, trying to connect.

It’s heartbreaking, but not entirely without hope, striking a tone of ambiguity that’s driven home by a sequence showing Eleanor and Conor visiting the same park, separately, but in the same shot.

Are they together, or are they apart? It’s not clear.

Like two movies on the same subject, it’s as if they’re covering the same ground, disconnected, but looking for a place where they can come together to share their stories.

• “The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Them” received four out of four stars. The film is rated R, and contains mature thematic material, obscenity, fist-fighting and sensuality. It runs 123 minutes.

BEST BETS ± 7 p.m. on PBS 11 The Roosevelts: An Intimate History: The new Ken Burns miniseries concludes its seven-part run with “A Strong and Active Faith (1944-1962),” focusing largely on Eleanor Roosevelt (voice of Meryl Streep) after husband Franklin’s (voice of Edward Herrmann) health erodes rapidly during his fourth presidential term. Eleanor proves a vastly impressive stateswoman for America, taking up such causes as civil rights and the United

Nations ... and earning the unofficial title “First Lady of the World.”

± 9 p.m. CBS 2 48 Hours: The circumstances surrounding the 2012 murder of a Weight Watchers executive are examined by Troy Roberts in “A Raging Son.” The body of Danielle Thomas was found in a bathtub, with ice bags used in an apparent effort to preserve it. Her live-in boyfriend, a Wall Street attorney, was arrested and charged — but his lawyer linked his alleged actions to trauma caused by his having been abused, neglected and ultimately abandoned by his mother.
