LOCKPORT – A bicyclist was killed in Lockport early Thursday morning after a car struck him.

Lockport police are investigating the death of Jeffery T. Flowers, 51, of Joliet. He was identified through fingerprints, according to the Will County Coroner’s Office.

Authorities are not releasing the name of the 19-year-old driver of the vehicle involved

in the crash because of the pending investigation.

At 5:01 a.m. Thursday, Lockport police responded to a crash on the 14000 block of New Avenue, where they found Flowers in critical condition.

Lockport Township Fire Department paramedics sent him to Silver Cross Hospital.

He subsequently died from his injures.

Police spoke with the driver, a Justice resident, and a witness. Both said Flowers

The driver told officers he did not see Flowers until immediately before the crash and attempted to swerve to avoid him. However, the bicyclist swerved in the same direction as the car. The driver attempted to avoid him again but was unsuccessful.

Union earns Ill. merit award

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A small Joliet school district has turned itself around after financial troubles and controversy over nepotism.

For their efforts, Union School District 81 officials will receive the Award of Merit from the Illinois State Board of Education on Oct. 25 in Normal.

School officials announced last week they were receiving the state award.

They said they were nominated for improving school finances, extending the school year and providing additional student resources.

“It’s a great honor. It’s a culmination of a couple of years of effort by everyone here,” Superintendent Tim Baldermann said.

Baldermann, a former Chicago Ridge police chief and current New Lenox mayor, began leading Union School District 81 two years ago. Baldermann also once served as board president for New Lenox School District 122.

Since Baldermann became superintendent, the school district’s financial rating went from the worst to the best rating under state standards.

The school also had its first playground built and every student between third and eighth grade was provided a computer. The district also went to a balanced calendar, with 18 additional days of school for students.

“We realized we needed to put a lot of focus on the curriculum for our students and develop that curriculum,” Baldermann said.

It’s a different picture from

years ago, when the school had a poor financial rating, students tested below state averages and there was controversy over nepotism involving former School Board President John LaRocca and three of his family members employed by the school district.

All of them resigned last year.

Baldermann said the school district made major changes to cafeteria and transportation personnel. It also managed its finances well enough to get a $300,000 surplus in its overall budget, he said.

While it’s his job to provide leadership and vision, he said the school’s transformation would not be possible without the staff.

“If the teachers and staff were not on board … we wouldn’t be here. I’m happy we had this success,” he said.

LOCAL BRIEF Fire chief: Plainfield crash victim recovering PLAINFIELD – A Plainfield man airlifted to a hospital after a crash with a semitrailer Wednesday underwent surgery and is recovering, Plainfield Deputy Fire Chief Jon Stratton said.

State police officials said the crash occurred at 8:25 a.m. Wednesday when a 2014 Chrysler rear-ended the semitrailer on Route 126 at Penny Lane.

Stratton said it took firefighters 30 minutes to extricate the man. Police said he was then flown to Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove with life-threatening injuries.

The semitrailer’s driver wasn’t injured or ticketed.

Stratton and police officials would not release the injured driver’s identity as of Thursday afternoon.

Family shocked at account Killing puts complex in spotlight once more

Details emerge at hearing for slaying suspect

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Family and friends described the young woman stabbed to death Wednesday as caring, outgoing and dedicated to what she wanted.

Joslyn Woods, 20, was “extremely curious, independent, resourceful and determined,” her mother, Kathryn Hatcher, said Thursday. “Those were her best qualities and her worst qualities. I wanted her to use her powers for good.”

Laura Edler-Hill, a friend of the family, who Woods called her “aunt” on her Facebook page, said she volunteered hair and makeup services earlier this year to students unable to afford them while attending prom.

Edler-Hill was among those who attended a bond hearing Thursday for Drumaine S. Drumaine S. McKinley, the man accused of McKinley killing Woods in a laundry room at Evergreen Terrace, 363 N. Broadway.

Family and friends had difficulty reconciling their memories with allegations made at the bond hearing by the man suspected of killing her that the pair had met at Evergreen Terrace for sex. Neither Woods nor McKinley lived at the housing complex.

Assistant Will County State’s Attorney Peter Wilkes said about 6:30 a.m., Woods was found face down, covered in blood with multiple

tra station, according to Wilkes.

When McKinley was found by police hiding behind his mother’s home in the 1400 block of Washington Street a few hours later, he said he “didn’t mean to hurt her that bad,” according to Wilkes.

McKinley was questioned by detectives and said he’d gone out drinking with his wife and another couple the night before and was dropped off at Harrah’s Casino, Wilkes told Rickmon.

McKinley allegedly told police he’d then answered an online advertisement and arranged to pay a woman for sex early that morning. McKinley claimed after the encounter began in the laundry room, Woods asked for more money and pulled out a knife when he refused, according to Wilkes.

Edler-Hill began shaking and buried her face in her

JOLIET – The stabbing death Wednesday of a woman in an Evergreen Terrace laundry room has put the future of the beleaguered low-income housing facility back in the City Council’s spotlight.

District 2 Councilman Bob O’Dekirk, who is challenging Mayor Tom Giarrante and Andy Mihelich in the April 2015 election, on Thursday renewed his call for a detailed plan outlining what the city Tom plans to do with Giarrante the property should it win its lawsuit against its owners.

“I know senior city officials privately are saying they Bob O’Dekirk believe we can own Evergreen Terrace and make money on the property.

I am not interested in owning Evergreen Terrace,” O’Dekirk said in an emailed statement.

“The whole purpose of the lawsuit is to tear the buildings down,” O’Dekirk said in his statement. “If that is no longer the direction the city is going to take, Mayor Giarrante needs to disclose this to the City Council and the citizens.”

Giarrante countered that the City Council had hired

Joliet police officers talk outside the scene of a fatal stabbing at the Evergreen Terrace apartment complex Wednesday. The family of the 20-year-old woman found stabbed said they are shocked at the account of how she died. stab wounds to her chest in a laundry room at Evergreen Terrace.

“A knife was found near the body and bloody footprints were coming from the laundry room to the exit,” Wilkes told Judge Roger Rickmon.

Surveillance video shows McKinley arrived at the housing unit at 6:15 a.m. and Woods arrived five minutes later.

While the two engaged in sexual activity, McKinley hit Woods and pushed her into a wall before getting on top of her and stabbing her, Wilkes said. Joliet police said neither McKinley nor Woods had a visitor’s pass for the complex.

Evergreen Terrace is a federally subsidized and privately owned apartment complex for low-income residents. The complex includes a security station, and management has a policy requiring passes for any visitors.

Joslyn Woods, 20, attended Joliet West and Central high schools and held a cosmetology degree.

Evergreen Terrace management declined Thursday to answer questions about “an ongoing investigation.”

McKinley allegedly called 911 and said his girlfriend had been stabbed and he’d gotten covered in blood trying to help before hanging up without giving more information.

Police used surveillance video and canine units to discover a bloody shirt in a garbage can at Cass and Ottawa streets and other clothing at the Me-

Steer clear of bats, which can carry rabies 5 bats with virus found in county in past 2 weeks

A bat is tested for rabies Wednesday in the Illinois Department of Public Health’s virology laboratory in Springfield.

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com WILL COUNTY – While often seen circling on a summer night feasting on insects, bats can just as easily find a cozy spot in an unsuspecting homeowner’s chimney, bedroom or attic during cooler months.

But seeing a bat up close, especially in daytime, can be a sign of trouble, as has been the case with five rabid bats found in Will County in the past two weeks. The latest rabid bat was found Tuesday in Wilmington.

“Bats are really just mice with wings. They have extremely flexible bodies, capable of getting into small openings,” said Vic Reato, Will County Health Department spokesman. “It’s not unusual to find them in your house. But bats, by nature, don’t want to be involved with humans any more than we would wish to be involved with them.”

So when you see a bat out and about in the daytime, consider that a red flag that the bat is diseased, Reato said. The most serious problem could be rabies.

Rabies, a fatal disease that attacks the central nervous system, can only be confirmed in a laboratory. Because these normally nocturnal creatures

Know more Since 2000, 80 bats have tested positive for rabies in Will County, with a record high of 12 in 2012. There were six in 2013, seven in 2011 and nine in 2010. Before 2012, the previous high was 11 in 2007.

The nine confirmations this year include three in Joliet and three in Wilmington, plus single positives from Braidwood, Mokena and New Lenox. The first positive for this year was confirmed May 12 in Joliet.

The state’s all-time-high record occurred in 2010, when 117 bats tested positive out of the 2,036 tested. can carry it, it’s best to steer clear of them during the day, especially if they seem disoriented and unable to fly, Reato said. That’s a sign they could be sick.

Three more bats were confirmed positive for rabies this week in Will County, bringing the area’s tally to nine this

year, Reato said. The latest bat found is the fifth since Aug. 25, he said.

Some have been found in the oddest places.

In the latest confirmations, one bat was found hanging Tuesday from an outside wall of a garage in Wilmington, while another was found in a

bathroom of a Mokena residence on Saturday. The residents thought they heard wings fluttering the night before, but the bat was found Saturday morning, Reato said. Another live bat was found in a Joliet living room Sunday.

Last month, a live bat found shelter beneath someone’s microwave in Joliet, while another was found in the hallway of a New Lenox home just outside a woman’s bedroom. Both later tested positive for rabies and post-exposure rabies treatment was recommended for those living in the homes.

Dr. Lee Schild, who heads up Will County Animal Control, said the number of positive tests so far this year is on the “high side,” but not out of

the norm. Confirmed cases can fluctuate between four and 12 annually, he said.

While signs of the disease occur between 14 and 90 days from the time of a bite, the virus acts fast, Schild said. It is usually transmitted to people and other animals when they are bitten or scratched.

Early symptoms include excitability, apprehension, fever, headache and sensory changes at the bite location. Once symptoms appear, the disease almost always progresses to paralysis, coma and death within days.

That’s why Schild stresses that people should call animal control if they see a bat in their home – and never approach it.

“Always call animal control. There’s no effective [rabies] treatment in humans or animals,” Schild said. “Bats have such tiny teeth, they can actually penetrate the skin and not leave a mark, so it’s possible someone might not even know they’ve been exposed.”

Bats are generally “wonderful little creatures,” Reato said, often eating bugs and pesky insects. But they shouldn’t be considered approachable.

“Bats are wonderful in their own habitat. They eat bugs.

They eat insects. They eat all the things that we would like to see be eaten,” Reato said.

“But they just don’t mix with humans.”

Will County Animal Control is available for area residents who believe they have been exposed to bats. Call Animal Control anytime at 815-462-5633.

and he had a panic attack,” Renzi said. Smith became physically ill in the courtroom.

Renzi asked for the second evaluation because of his concerns about Smith’s behavior.

On Oct. 17, 2013, the body of Joan M. Smith was found in the river near Brandon Road.

Another relative had reported the 59-year-old Joliet woman

missing a few days earlier.

Smith allegedly gave police inconsistent information after her death was discovered and was arrested on charges of murder and concealing a homicide.

Renzi told Alessio-Policandriotes that Zoot’s report is expected to be completed in the next few days.

Price for road salt nearly doubles for county

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Will County this winter will pay nearly double the price paid last year for road salt, but county officials said it could be worse.

Board members are expected to vote later this month on a contract with Elgin-based Central Salt for 10,000 tons of road salt at $105.25 per ton – for a total price tag of about $1.05 million. Last year, the county paid about $55 per ton through a bidding process conducted

by Illinois Department of Central Management of private vendors.

Like many municipalities throughout the state, Will County has often relied on the Illinois Department of Central Management Services as a marketplace for salt suppliers bids.

But county officials received word from CMS earlier this summer that no vendors responded to requests for bids because of high prices and product availability, said

And, waiting for a bid from CMS could have forced Will County to be “stuck with a higher price” with “no way to reject it,” Will County Board Member Walter Adamic said.

Adamic, who chairs the Public Works and Transportation Committee, said while prices are on the higher side, it could have been worse. The highest quote the county received was $161 per ton, he said.

Public safety comes first, he said.

“We have to make sure our roadways are safe so we don’t get into a bad situation,” Adamic said.

Joliet schools’ tech Cantigny VFW Post #367 upgrade nearly done BEST

By SARWAT S. AHMAD Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – In preparation for new online state tests aligned with Common Core curriculum standards, Joliet grade schools have worked on upgrading their technological systems for the past two years.

By October, District 86 expects to complete a $1.75 million, two-year technology infrastructure overhaul.

Since 2012, the district has replaced the data network in all 23 of its buildings “in order to provide a 21st century, robust network to support teaching and learning,” said John Armstrong, technology and information services director.

“As long as we have computers that are fast and secure and able to utilize the Internet efficiently, we will be able to fulfill the needs of the students,” Armstrong said.

Armstrong outlined the improvements to the school board Wednesday night.

District 86 was one of the first school districts to get a data network back in the mid1990s. At the time, the system was high-tech, but it can no longer “deliver quality digital content to the classroom,” said Armstrong.

Such a network would support the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) online assessment, which students will take for the first time this year.

The state may allow paper and pencil tests this year, but the district wants to prepare for whatever the Illinois State Board of Education mandates, said Armstrong.

“Our only option is to be fully prepared,” he said.

While online assessments are a large factor in the district’s initiative, its main ob-

jective is to provide a modern learning environment for students.

The technology department collaborates with curriculum coordinators to assess teacher and student needs, Armstrong said.

“Our principle goal is teaching and learning – what happens in the classroom is what drives technology,” he said.

In May 2013, District 86 had 5,280 computer devices, but more than half were not viable. Now the district has 4,820 working devices and 300 iPads.

At the start of this school year, the district delivered 770 new laptops to its schools.

“That’s still not a lot per building, but it is a lot for us,” said Armstrong.

The current ratio of students per device is four-to-one.

In comparison, the Joliet high school district implemented a “one-to-one” technology initiative that allows students to bring their devices home.

“One-to-one is an idealized goal, however, at this juncture, that is too far removed to factor,” Superintendent Charles Coleman said. By adding computers every year, the district may reach that ratio in the future, he added.

Preschools honored In other news, the preschool programs at Marycrest, Marshall and Woodland schools received state awards for excellence.

Marycrest received the Gold Circle of Quality award, while Marshall and Woodland each received the Silver Circle of Quality award.

The programs were ranked based on instructional excellence, family services, staff qualifications, professional development and program administration.

Trustees hear ideas for Uptown Square out-lot

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com ROMEOVILLE – The Uptown Square downtown revitalization project continues in Romeoville, with village trustees hearing plans Wednesday on building a second out-lot in the square.

The out-lot is on the southeast end of the Uptown Square development, east of the Athletic and Events Center and north across Alexander Circle from the Shell gas station.

“We’ve been moving forward and are excited about the prospects for the area,” Mayor John Noak said.

Two plans were presented to trustees, who won’t vote on the out-lot development until the developer finds vendors for the building, Noak said.

Option A would be a 10,344-square-foot building with a drive-thru window on the south end for a restaurant or coffee shop, according to village doc-

LOCAL BRIEF Police: Joliet man died from gunshot wound A Joliet man found dead Tuesday at the Kankakee River State Park appears to have died from a single gunshot wound to the head, state police said Thursday.

Raymond E. Sims, 58, of Joliet was discovered about 3:20 p.m.

Tuesday in a hunting area of the Kankakee River State Park off Route 113, Illinois State Police District 21 Trooper Jamie Bufford said Thursday.

A gun was found near the body. Bufford said the manner of death was “most likely suicide.”

Kankakee County Coroner Robert Gessner said his office is waiting for a toxicology report before making a final determination on the cause of death.

Sims’ family has been notified, Gessner said.

uments. It would include 44 parking spaces.

Option B is a 9,100-squarefoot building with three drive-thru lanes on the south end for a bank. Around the building, 42 parking spaces would be built.

In both options, parking would be shared with other recently developed and future establishments, including the Athletic and Events Center, Fat Ricky’s One World Pizza, Franconi’s and a McDonald’s across Route 53.

Noak said the central parking area in Uptown Square would be shared between the vendors that move in.

“There are limitations when you have a more urbanized downtown development,” he said. “But parking is shared for the whole entire

site.”

Pedestrian-oriented and decorative landscaping would surround the building.

And the building exterior would be built with brick and stone.

“One of the things we did was encourage the fact that this is a unique site in the way it’s laid out,” Noak said.

“You can approach the building from every direction, so we encouraged [the developers] to soften the exterior.”

The Uptown Square redevelopment project is not like other downtown projects in other municipalities, in part because the Athletic and Events Center is the anchor.

“It’s fairly unique what we’re doing here,” Noak said.

“We’re going into some new territory in redeveloping the area.”

• SLAYING Continued from page 3 hands as the prosecutor summarized McKinley’s explanation of why they’d been in the laundry room.

“I don’t believe it,” she said later. “That doesn’t sound at all like anything she would do.”

Hatcher and Woods’ father, Thomas Woods, said they didn’t know why their daughter was meeting McKinley.

“She may have known him socially, but he wasn’t a boyfriend or friend I knew,” Hatcher said.

Woods attended Joliet West

and Central high schools and held a cosmetology degree.

Thomas Woods said Joslyn’s career goal was to eventually operate a salon with her older sister.

“She’d only been working at a hair salon in Romeoville for about eight weeks, but her personality made such an impact they closed for the day out of respect and asked a grief counselor to come in for the staff,” Hatcher said Thursday.

“She would give you the shirt off her back. She really would,” Thomas Woods said.

Edler-Hill said Woods always tried to take care of her family and was protective of

her three younger sisters.

“She was over 18, but she was still a kid. She had goals and dreams. She was loved by so many people,” Edler-Hill said.

Rickmon set McKinley’s bond at $5 million, but his parole on drug and weapons convictions would likely be revoked before he could post that amount.

“Could you tell me if my family is out there?” McKinley asked Rickmon via video from the county jail, which brought shouts of profanity from some in the courtroom.

“I guess that answers that question,” he then said.

• SPOTLIGHT Continued from page 3 Chicago-based Holsten Real Estate Development Corp. to develop options for the property.

“Should we acquire the site, all stakeholders will be involved in our decisions moving forward with Evergreen,” Giarrante said.

The city has awaited word on the outcome of its lawsuit against Evergreen since May 21. A decision on the case

by U.S. District Court Judge Charles Norgle initially was expected within 30 to 60 days.

If Joliet wins the case, it can purchase the property from its owners, and then either develop or demolish all or part of it. If the owners win the case, they’ll keep the property

and the city will owe them millions of dollars in court costs.

O’Dekirk said he also was concerned about the city’s potential liability from crimes committed on property it owns or controls. He contended it would open the city up to civil litigation that could cost taxpayers millions.

“Any good lawyer should know the city of Joliet will not be financially responsible for crime that occurs at Evergreen Terrace,” Giarrante responded in his email statement.

Giarrante has long maintained the project is a crime magnet.

A study by the Joliet Police Department that Giarrante made public in March showed the Broadway Street apartments have averaged 16 violent crimes per year for more

than a decade, a rate more than three times the city average.

O’Dekirk, a 10-year veteran of the Joliet Police Department, characterized this week’s slaying as “a call to action.”

“It’s not enough to say, ‘We won the lawsuit,’ ” O’Dekirk said in his statement. “The city needs to be realistic on what can be done at that property, and more importantly, how much it will cost and how we will pay for it.”

Giarrante called Evergreen Terrace “a test of leadership” and said the city needs to address the problems that exist there.

“It’s not going to get better,” Giarrante said. “It was bad when O’Dekirk was on the force. It was bad when I was on the fire department.”

PLAINFIELD – Plainfield Academy will be closed again Friday after another small amount of mold was found Thursday in a classroom.

It is the second time this week the school, 23930 W. Lockport St., has been closed because of mold. The building was closed Wednesday after teachers reported seeing the substance and reported it to school administration.

Small amounts of common mold were found in five classrooms and a few other areas. Consultants conducted inspections and confirmed the green, powdery dust found on several classroom bulletin boards at Plainfield Academy is mold. The building was cleaned and sterilized Wednesday, and opened Thursday as scheduled.

The mold found Thursday was behind a poster hanging

on a wall, and so was not seen when the room was inspected Wednesday evening, the district said in a news release issued Thursday evening.

“Therefore, as a precaution the school will again be closed [Friday],” the news release states. “We are not aware of any related health issues or concerns at this time.”

The district said the room and adjoining areas were to be thoroughly cleaned again Thursday night, and experts would again test air quality levels and check other areas over the weekend. The district intends to reopen Plainfield Academy on Monday, and said it would update the community as needed throughout the weekend.

“We apologize for the inconvenience and uncertainty this situation has caused for our students, staff and families. We share your frustration,” the district said in a news release.

Jalopy Fest coming to Grundy fairgrounds

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Car enthusiasts can step back in time and check out cars from a bygone era this weekend at Jalopy Fest.

Bernie Myers and his wife, Marcia, of Morris are hosting the fifth annual festival, which celebrates simpler times, Saturday and Sunday at the Grundy County Fairgrounds.

“This car show is a lot different than your typical cruise night,” Myers said. “You won’t see cars newer than 1964.”

Jalopy Fest is billed as a way to celebrate a more traditional era of automobiles. You won’t find a 2013 Challenger at this event. In addition to cars from the 1950s and early 1960s, attendees will find people dressed as if they’d come from a sock hop or the drive-in.

“We’ll have a pin-up contest

To be shown at Jalopy Fest, custom cars must be from 1972 or older; hot rods must be 1964 or older.

This is the fifth year for the two-day event, which has grown each year, Myers said.

Throughout the weekend, Rock-a-Billy bands will play in the pavilion. There is a bonfire on Saturday night, along with Shaw Media file photos a DJ.

Wealth still coming up in governor race

CHICAGO – Illinois’s gubernatorial race turned to the question of whether a candidate’s personal wealth should be a qualifying factor in holding public office, with the Democratic lieutenant governor candidate saying Thursday that Republican Bruce Rauner is too rich to be governor.

Paul Vallas, Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn’s running mate, was asked if he believed Republican venture capitalist Bruce Rauner was “just too rich to be governor.” After telling reporters that Rauner didn’t understand working class Illinoisans because of his philosophy in business, Vallas answered “yes.”

“He definitely cannot relate to everyday voters and he cannot relate to working families,” Vallas said.

Quinn’s campaign has tried to paint Rauner as an out-of-touch millionaire, pointing to the $53 million he earned in 2012 and his membership to a wine club with up to $140,000 in initiation fees.

Rauner spokesman Mike Schrimpf scoffed at Vallas’ contention.

“We didn’t know a person’s income level was a qualification for office,” he said in a statement.

Ill. Chamber of Commerce backs Cross for treasurer

SPRINGFIELD – An influential business advocacy organization made its first-ever endorsement for Illinois treasurer on Thursday, choosing Republican Tom Cross, a move that signifies the unusual intensity of a normally lackluster race for the lone statewide seat without an incumbent.

Illinois Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Todd Maisch told reporters the group chose the treasurer’s race because of the office’s expanding role in the business community, noting

Dr. Jared Bernard, a lieutenant commander and trauma surgeon in the U.S. Navy, helps perform surgery on a gunshot victim Aug. 6 alongside medical personnel at Cook County’s Stroger Hospital in Chicago. A program launched in late spring has Navy doctors, nurses and medics training at the hospital because patients arriving there often have the same types of wounds that are common in combat. “Land mines and IEDs ... and high-speed car crashes can cause similar types of injuries,” said Dr. Faran Bokhari, the head of Stroger’s trauma department.

that former treasurer Democrat Alexi Giannoulias and current Republican officeholder Dan Rutherford – have “increasingly become spokesmen for the fiscal integrity of the state.”

The group, which describes itself as nonpartisan, supports Republicans’ efforts to lower taxes and opposes Democrats’ push to raise the state’s minimum wage – both big issues in the November election.

U. of Illinois may consider more financial aid

CHAMPAIGN – A top administrator says the University of Illinois may need to increase its spending on financial aid after watching growing numbers of students decide to go elsewhere because of rising costs.

According to university spokesman Tom Hardy, Vice President for Academic Affairs Christophe Pierre said during a board of trustees committee meeting Wednesday the money could come from increasing the enrollment in higher-tuition programs such as engineering or adding higher-paying international students at the Chicago campus.

A year of tuition at the Urbana-Champaign campus costs $12,036. Four years of tuition, room and board tops $100,000.

Striking fast-food workers block Chicago street

CHICAGO – A few hundred fast-food workers and their supporters blocked traffic on a busy South Side street between a McDonald’s and a Burger King on Thursday morning until police moved in and took nearly two dozen into custody.

The protest, one of a number across the country, included workers chanting slogans to draw attention to their push to increase their salaries to $15 an hour – an hourly wage that’s $5 more than many said they make after several years on the job.

Settlement for Metra CEO cost rail agency $1.3 million

CHICAGO – The Chicago area’s Metra commuter rail agency has released accounting details showing the departure of its former chief executive cost taxpayers more than $1.3 million. Just over half of that went to pay outside attorneys to defend Metra against allegations of political patronage that emerged during the matter.

Former CEO Alex Clifford alleged he was forced out last year for resisting outside political pressure in hiring and other personnel and contract matters.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS U.S., UK seek partners to go after Islamic State

Ukraine’s leader: Careful optimism on peace talks NEWPORT, Wales – Ukraine’s president expressed “careful optimism” Thursday that a peace deal could be reached with Russian-backed separatists at their upcoming talks, even as he and NATO leaders agreed that Moscow should be punished for its role in the insurgency.

President Petro Poroshenko said he was ready to order a cease-fire in eastern Ukraine if a deal is signed at scheduled talks Friday in Minsk, Belarus.

By LYNN ELBER The Associated Press Joan Rivers, the raucous, acid-tongued comedian who crashed the male-dominated realm of late-night talk shows and turned Hollywood red carpets into danger zones for badly dressed celebrities, died Thursday. She was 81.

Rivers died at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, surrounded by family and close friends, daughter Melissa Rivers said. She was hospitalized Aug. 28 after going into cardiac arrest in a doctor’s office following a routine procedure. The New York state health department is investigating the circumstances.

“My mother’s greatest joy in life was to make people laugh,” Melissa Rivers said.

“Although that is difficult to do right now, I know her final wish would be that we return to laughing soon.”

Upon hearing of her death, reaction poured out from dozens of notables, ranging from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Rivers’ peer-in-comedy Don Rickles.

“Knowing her, working with her and enjoying the fun times of life with her was

Joan Rivers poses in October 2009 as she presents “Comedy Roast with Joan Rivers” in Cannes, France. Rivers died Thursday at age 81. special. She will always be in our hearts,” Rickles said in a statement.

Under the immobile, plastic surgery-crafted veneer that became Joan Rivers’ unapologetic trademark as she aged, her wit remained as vibrantly raw and unruly as when she first broke her way into a comedy world belonging largely to men.

In a 2010 “Late Show” interview, David Letterman broached the plastic surgery issue: “You don’t look exactly like the Joan Rivers I used to

know.” Rivers didn’t flinch.

“Our business is so youthful. ... You do little tweaks, and I think if a woman wants to look good, or a man, do it,” she said. “It’s not about anybody else.”

Fashion and acting were the early dreams of the woman who grew up as a self-described “fatty,” but it was humor that paid the bills and ultimately made Rivers a star.

She refused to cede the spotlight as the decades passed, working vigorously until her death.

NEWPORT, Wales – President Barack Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron pressed fellow NATO leaders Thursday to confront the “brutal and poisonous” Islamic State militant group that is wreaking havoc in Iraq and Syria – and urged regional partners like Jordan and Turkey to join the effort as well.

As leaders of the Western alliance gathered for a two-day summit, Obama and Cameron worked to begin forming a coalition of nations that could combat the extremists through military power, diplomatic pressure and economic penalties.

The alliance made no specific pledges of action.

Thumbs-up to helping save furry friends The Herald-News Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs-up and thumbs-down: Thumbs-up: to Invisible Fence Brand for its mission to supply fire departments – including several Joliet-area fire departments – with free pet oxygen masks, specifically designed to fit a dog or cat’s face.

With so many people today viewing their pets as members of the family, these masks will allow firefighters a better chance of saving all loved ones when something as tragic as a house fire strikes.

Thumbs-down: to too many holidays at government offices. The village of Channahon this week approved a 2015 holiday schedule that includes not only Thanksgiving but the day after, not only Christmas but Christmas Eve, as well, and not only New Year’s Day but New Year’s Eve, too.

It’s nice to get the extra days. Maybe we in the private sector are jealous. But we think taxpayers grow weary of paying for such things as liberal holiday schedules that they don’t get at their own jobs.

Thumbs-up: to educating parents about Common Core. The Common Core State Standard Initiative is a set of standards in math and language arts developed by education leaders and governors in more than 40 states, including Illinois. They aim to provide clear college- and career-ready standards for kindergarten through 12th grade in English language arts/literacy and mathematics.

Many students – and their parents – have found them confusing. Plainfield School District 202 is holding a series of meetings for parents to focus on the standards in English/language arts, the first round of standardized testing with Common Core standards and the federal and statewide conversation surrounding the standards.

Whether you do or do not like the new standards, it’s refreshing to see a school district provide the opportunity for parents to learn more about them. We encourage other local districts to follow suit.

THE FIRST AMENDMENT

Aboard a nation that’s in irons Summer isn’t officially over, but this weekend is the traditional finale to that sweet season of beaches, peaches and breaches of attention. It’s back to work, back to school and back to our knitting.

And what a tangled skein has been knitted during those sun-splashed months of Michigan cherries and peaceful reveries. Perhaps only in 1914, 1938 and 1939 – maybe even 2001, if you consider that planning for the September attacks was continuing apace over Labor Day weekend – have world leaders returned to their posts to so dangerous a mix of global conditions as the ones Barack Obama, the American Congress, the Western allies, Middle East warriors and Eastern European leaders now confront.

NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE David M. Shribman Obama has taken criticism for vacationing as crises gathered in Iraq, Libya, Ukraine and Missouri, but he has historical companions in holiday retreat. As the world slipped into war in 1914, Sir Edward Grey, the British foreign minister, was off bird-watching.

It had been a splendid summer, the prettiest in memory in Europe, elegized by the poet Alice Meynell (1847-1922), whose “Summer in England 1914” speaks of a golden time when “The hay was prosperous, and the wheat/The silken harvest climbed the down/

Moon after moon was heavenly-sweet.”

The president’s vacation is over, summer moons are in the past, but these remain: • The gravest crisis. There is much competition for this title, but it may go to the new Caliphate spilling over the borders of Syria and Iraq and headed by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, whose group – known as the Islamic State – is rapidly replacing al-Qaida as the sum of all American fears. The calamity in this region has vast, sober and frightening implications that range far beyond the Levant, the old French geographical term that for a time was attached to al-Baghdadi’s organization.

The good news is that the

See SHRIBMAN, page 19

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

• SHRIBMAN Continued from page 18

• A close second is a halfgame behind, but even in the loss column. Here we consider the growing shadow cast

by Vladimir Putin’s Russia over the nations that once made up the Soviet Union.

Most Western leaders did not regard the convoy of aid that barreled through Ukraine this month as a heartwarming humanitarian gesture from the onetime member of the KGB, who has said publicly that the destruction of the USSR was “the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the (20th) century,” a remark that somehow overlooks the

• Competing for the wild card is the seething anger on all sides in Ferguson, Missouri.

There’s the uneasiness about the economy. There’s the queasiness – even Obama’s diminishing number of allies feel it – about the president’s extension of power to the edges of, if not beyond, con-

stitutional authority.

Then, last week, a new one: broadening fear of a cyber threat to financial markets, raising the specter of a “black swan event,” an allusion to Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s 2007 book, “The Black Swan,” which carries this ominous subtitle, perhaps the leitmotif of our age: “The Impact of the Highly Improbable.”

Amid all this, the country has the feeling of spinning too fast on its axis, perhaps even spinning out of control. This president has the capacity to make a difference but seems indifferent about doing so, most especially and most mysteriously in Ferguson. And Congress?

It, like much of the country, is hopelessly in irons – a nautical condition which occurs, according to the official Coast Guard auxiliary handbook, when a boat “is stopped, pointing directly into the wind, having lost all headway.”

In February 1941, Franklin D. Roosevelt sent his recent campaign rival, 1940 GOP presidential nominee Wendell Willkie, to London, and the presidential emissary presented Winston Churchill with a letter of introduction that included a handwritten verse from Longfellow with the phrase “Sail on, Oh Ship of State!” and continuing: “Humanity with all its fears/With all the hope of future years/Is hanging breathless on thy fate.”

This is one of those moments. It is also one of those heavenly moon moments when the United States is in irons, stopped, pointing directly into the wind, having lost all headway.

Islamic State is isolated, with several other reviled groups taking up opposition (but not, alas, arms) against it: Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, Hezbollah and al-Qaida. In this case, of course, the old proverb, sometimes ascribed to Arabic origins, that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, does not apply.

But a touch of the first Truman doctrine – not the one he announced to a joint meeting of Congress amid the Greek Civil War in 1947, but the one promulgated in 1941 while he was still a senator – might appeal to some Western strategists: “If we see that Germany is winning the war, we ought to help Russia; and if Russia is winning, we ought to help Germany.”

But the good news about the Islamic State crisis may be outweighed by the bad, including reports that the group possesses more than two dozen M1 Abrams tanks, a fleet of Humvees, a cache of other American weapons and a sprinkling of Russian ones, and that its ultimate goal is to attack the American homeland. No one doubts that is its aim. The only question is whether it can.

Nazi conquest of Europe stretching from Belgium to Albania. Last week’s Russian tank movements were anything but reassuring.

Strobe Talbott, the deputy secretary of state in the Clinton administration who now is the president of the Brookings Institution, sees the emergence of a doctrine of Putinism. This doctrine, he wrote this month in Politico, “violates international law, nullifies Russia’s past pledges to respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of its neighbors, carries with it the danger of spinning out of control and sparking a wider conflict, and establishes a precedent for other major powers to apply their own version of the Putin Doctrine when convenient.”

For the past several months, the West has been powerless to stanch the flow of Putinism, which – acknowledging the danger of employing this facile metaphor – nonetheless has menacing similarities to the 1933-1939 prewar attributes, and appetites, of Hitlerism.

That’s the bad news. Talbott and others point out that in seeking to replicate the Soviet Union, the resurgent Russia of 2014 may also find itself replicating the corrupt Russia of 1917-1989, which did not satisfy its peoples’ basic human needs, nor their basic consumer longings.

The first Soviet Union collapsed of its own weight, but with somber consequences. The second may fare no better, probably not without somber consequences either.

GIRLS VOLLEYBALL: PLAINFIELD SOUTH 25-26, JOLIET WEST 21-24

PLAINFIELD – Plainfield South won only two girls volleyball games in 2013. After the Cougars beat Joliet West in two close matches Thursday night, 25-21, 26-24, it looks as if this season could go in a different direction.

The first few plays in the match dictated what went right for Plainfield South and wrong for Joliet West throughout.

West was forced to call a timeout at 8-5 after the Tigers had three hitting errors, one serving error and South scored two aces. Immediately after the timeout, West made two more serving errors.

The Cougars won because they limited their errors, while the Tigers committed 39 total.

“You’re not going to beat many junior high teams let alone high school teams with 39 errors,” West coach Alan Mart said. “We had 13 missed serves and [had] 19 hitting errors, not including the net violations. That was the biggest factor.”

While West’s errors contributed to the loss, South’s consistent serving and serve-receive passing helped the Cougars win. South was in system throughout and had 11 aces for the night.

Passing in system helped the Cougars set up their hot player of the night. Gabrielle Johnson had six kills and hit at .500. Johnson found a weak spot in the Tigers’ defense between right front and right back, a tough angle for a hitter to consistently hit hard.

“She was putting balls where I’ve never seen her hit before,” coach Amanda O’Boyle said.

With every kill she made, the crowd erupted, but something else made the crowd sing. The fans sang “Happy Birthday” to Jordan McNeill at the end of the first game.

In her opinion, the birthday

Down 23-19, McNeill stepped up to serve for the Cougars. The Tigers had gained momentum in the game and were hoping to side out on first serve to gain match point.

Johnson crushed the ball between right front and right back, making the score 23-20.

McNeill made a tough serve, causing the Tigers to pass the ball over the net to South’s middle blocker, Kristina Kore. She slammed the ball to the right back, making the score 23-21.

McNeill served a ball that hit the net and trickled over.

Her ace made the game 23-22.

McNeill served her third ace of the night, tying the game at 23 and prompting Mart to call a timeout.

After the timeout, McNeill stepped back up to serve. West sent the ball over. After making an out-of-system dig, McNeill set the ball and took her biggest swing of the night, giving her team game point.

“Toward the end of the game, I realized I needed to play,” McNeill said. “I was really excited. It felt good to

West tied the game by siding out, but the Cougars got game point back right off serve-receive.

Outside hitter Melissa Ryan got the kill that ended the game and made the crowd, team and birthday girl cheer in victory. “[McNeill] served tough at the right moment, and you have to give her credit,” Mart said. “But we need to execute. Plainfield South wanted it more than us. They played better defense. They kept the ball off the ground. They were smart. They let us keep messing up.”

Middles Elexis Coleman and Lauren Stefanski both had eight kills for the Tigers. Nicole Ochs contributed 12 digs.

“It felt good to finally get that kill that I was waiting all game to get. It fired me up.”

Week 2 – time to show improvement VIEWS Dick Goss The improvement is greatest from Week 1 to Week 2.

Many high school football coaches say that, and very often it proves true.

Some of what project as the top teams in the Joliet area this season are eager to see that improvement as they play their second game of the season Friday or Saturday.

Some lost last week because they had kinks that weren’t yet ironed out. Others were beaten simply because of the caliber of the opponent.

Others won but came away with the knowledge that some aspects of their game must get better if they hope to challenge for a conference title, or at least earn a playoff berth.

Among the games of highest local interest this weekend are Minooka at Providence, Wilmington at Coal City, Lincoln-Way East at Lincoln-Way Central and Bolingbrook at Romeoville.

Providence’s run defense was impressive last week against Joliet Catholic, and now the Celtics will go up against Minooka back Nate Gunn and sophomore quarterback Johnny Carnagio.

We’re not sure how good the Indians will be, but a certainty is that Gunn demands attention from opposing

Minooka’s Cameron Dirck rushes the ball during last week’s 28-21 victory over Morris. The Indians face a tall order Friday night at Providence. defenses. If opening night was any indication, Carnagio is a quarterback to keep an eye on after his impressive varsity debut in last week’s 28-21 win over Grundy County rival Morris.

Of course, Providence’s passing attack is second to none in the area, with Justin Hunniford throwing to Miles Boykin, Nate Vejvoda and a

few others.

When Wilmington and Coal City clash, there isn’t much more that needs to be said.

This is a huge rivalry, period.

It is the essence of high school football – two football-crazed neighboring towns, both of which are accustomed to their teams winning, wanting bragging rights so badly they can taste it.

The Lincoln-Way East at Lincoln-Way Central game becomes even more interesting based on how tough the Knights played the Griffins last season, when perennial power East survived, 17-12.

Central, bidding for a playoff berth, would like nothing better than to get off to a 2-0 start. East, which has been a playoff team every year of

its existence, would be in an early hole should it start 0-2.

Bolingbrook and Romeoville both opened with losses last week. The Raiders were our preseason choice as the No. 1 team in the area, and they still could wind up there.

The Spartans feel they will be a contender in the Southwest Prairie.

Romeoville sports three huge offensive threats in quarterback Kelvin Jones, receiver Chuck Hunter and running back Gil Whitaker.

Will they be able to produce against Bolingbrook’s strong defense? We shall see.

Another aspect to this weekend is most teams that were away last week are making their home debuts.

Lockport, for example, will play for the first time on the new turf, and it will be coach Dan Sharkey’s inaugural home game. Joliet West is home at noon Saturday against King after getting past Tinley Park last week, and Lincoln-Way West will make its home debut against Bloom.

Also keep in mind the 4 p.m. kickoff Saturday at Memorial Stadium, as University of St. Francis – ranked 20th in the NAIA preseason poll – opens its season against Olivet Nazarene.

If you want football, you’ve got it.

Leslie hailed from Johnstown, Pa. “He played basketball at Notre Dame, then he toured the country with the College AllStars and the Globetrotters,” Morzorati said. “He played for the Fort Wayne Zollner Pistons, which was the forerunner of the Detroit Pistons.”

Leslie came to Joliet to coach basketball at Joliet Catholic in the 1950s. His Hilltopper teams won 93 games in five seasons, after which he returned home and coached at

When Joliet West opened in 1964, he was hired as the Tigers’ first basketball coach and coached for three years before becoming an assistant principal.

Spiers no longer could hold back his tears. Like so many others in the Joliet Township family, he lost a good friend.

Leslie and his wife Jean have six children: Sue, Dave, Sandy, Laurie, Jeff and Dan. They were athletes. Sandy, in fact, was an outstanding tennis player. She played at Western Kentucky and married Bill Gullickson, the Joliet Catholic graduate who pitched in the major leagues for 14 seasons.

JOLIET – Retired Joliet Central Principal Craig Spiers was quite the basketball player in his day.

He starred at Joliet West before continuing his career at Illinois State University. To this day, he ranks among the best left-handed shooters ever associated with the Joliet basketball community.

If there was a better one, it might have been Spiers’ beloved high school coach, Leroy Leslie.

Leslie died last Friday in Venice, Fla., where he lived in retirement. He was 84.

“He was my coach, my

mentor and my friend,” Spiers said. “I aspired to be the person and principal he was.”

After his coaching tenure ended at West, Leslie had stints as the principal at East, West and Central. He is the only person to hold that distinction.

“I don’t where I would be without Leroy,” Spiers continued. “The last time I saw him was when he came up to my retirement. He joked about which one of us was the best left-handed shooter around here.”

Retired Joliet Township athletic director Paul Morzorati was Leslie’s close friend.

“I worked for him, and our kids ran around together,” Morzorati said. “He and I man-

SLAMMERS VS. GRIZZLIES

AREA ROUNDUP

Joliet and Gateway battle Lincoln-Way West blanks away in their season finale Plainfield East 5-0 in soccer SUBMITTED REPORTS

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia JOLIET – After claiming a season-best six straight victories, the Joliet Slammers were hoping to conclude their 2014 campaign on a winning note on Thursday.

Although Gateway saw its playoff hopes dashed prior to the final series, it still hoped to finish by capturing its 50th win on the last day of the season.

The Grizzlies jumped out to an early lead and managed to maintain throughout most of the contest.

But the Slammers tied the Frontier League game at 7 in the bottom of the ninth at Silver Cross Field, with the game going into extra innings at press time. The Slammers entered the game with a 40-55 record.

In the ninth, the Slammers attempted to stage their fourth-straight come-from-behind win after Max Casper led off with a double and Adrian English added a one-out single.

Casper scored on a wild pitch and Russell Moldenhauer tied it with a

two-out single.

The visitors used a three-run third to grab a 4-1 lead and after Joliet closed to within 4-3 in the fourth inning. But Gateway scored twice in the fifth and again in the seventh to take a 7-3 lead. The Slammers scored twice in the eighth and once more in the ninth.

Gateway scored a run on three straight singles in the first, but the Slammers responded right away in their initial at-bat when Seth Granger led off the bottom of that inning with a home run, his fourth of the year.

But the Grizzlies regained control in the third inning when they scored three times to knock starter Andrew Busby out of the contest after he allowed nine hits in two innings.

Grant DeBruin, who entered the game as the Frontier League leader in hits (133) and total bases (197) and ranked second in average (.356), singled home Granger in the third to make it a 4-2 game. DeBruin also doubled in his first at-bat and went two for four of the night.

By KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@shawmedia.com LAKE FOREST – Alshon Jeffery and Stephon Gilmore grew up in South Carolina.

They committed to play for the Gamecocks the same year, then on the same day, they declared for the NFL draft.

Every day in Columbia, the two lined up opposite one another, Jeffery the standout wide receiver and Gilmore the long, physical cornerback.

Those days, their jobs were to make each other better each week for the next SEC foe.

On Sunday at Soldier

Field, the two will surely get a few snaps lined up against one another again – for the first time since college and for the first time as NFL foes.

“Every day since I went to South Carolina, [we] were the first ones that lined up together every snap, every one-onone,” Gilmore said Thursday.

“We got each other better every day. We pushed each other every day.”

At 6-1, 190 pounds, Gilmore has the size to put up with Jeffery, and that had to help Jeffery hone his craft as a receiver in college. “It was great,” Jeffery said about those daily

Every day was a battle with each other, and Sunday’s going to be a battle.”

The two have had differing paths in their first two years in the league. Gilmore started every game as a rook-

ie and had 16 passes defensed and three forced fumbles. He missed five games in 2013. Jeffery had a hand injury that derailed his rookie season, then exploded in Year 2 en route to a Pro Bowl appearance.

Few corners know firsthand the type of damage Jeffery can do like Gilmore, and he said it’s all about spotting the football to keep Jeffery from dominating.

“Once you’ve got good coverage on him, you’ve got to find the ball because he can go up and make plays down the field, so you’ve got to find the ball, go up and get it,” he said.

On a musical mission Joliet physics teacher writes and records music for charity, involves students

By MAUVERNEEN BLEVINS

If you go

Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – As a student, Richard Anthony Goberville preferred math and science to the arts because math is right or wrong, always the same, Goberville said.

Eventually, Goberville – now a physics teacher at Joliet Central High School – realized that art is based on emotion. So Goberville now writes music based on what he feels, and he incorporates students in the production of it. His newest CD, “Electric Love,” incorporates talents of former students, both in the cover art and in its production.

Goberville, who uses the stage name Rich Anthony – Anthony is his middle name – because he feels “Goberville” is too hard to remember, will host a CD release party Saturday at Liquid Therapy in Joliet.

All money from CD sales will be donated to the Joliet chapter of Royal Family Kids Camp, a camp for foster children ages 7 to 11.

Nick, Goberville’s adopted son, now 11, attended for the last time this year. Nick enjoyed the camp so much that when Goberville adopted him, Nick wanted to know if he could still go to camp.

“It was tough for him to say goodbye this time,” Goberville said. “It’s a great experience for kids, so I can’t think of a better place to give back to.”

This isn’t the first time Goberville has used his music to help others. “Even If,” a song he recorded in 2011, was the result of a song he wrote about his feelings for Nick and what might happen if that child was reunited with his birth mother. That song, he said, also sparked his creativity. Proceeds were donated to Guardian Angel Community Services.

n WHAT: “Electric Love” CD release party for charity n WHEN: 9 p.m. Saturday n WHERE: Liquid Therapy, 3501 Channahon Road, Joliet n ETC: Karaoke-style music by Rich Anthony Goberville n COST: A suggested $10 donation for the CD. Proceeds to be donated to the Joliet chapter of Royal Family Kids Camp n VISIT: www.richanthonymusic. com, www.youtube.com/user/ artistrichardanthony, www.joliet. royalfamilykids.org and sinelabstudio.com.

Joliet Central physics teacher Rich Goberville (background) also is a musician in his spare time. He recently recorded his second CD under the name “Rich Anthony,” and it was recorded by former student Melza Jordan Jr. Now 44, Goberville first became interested in writing lyrics in high school. He always liked writing poetry but realized how powerful songs can be when he heard a discussion on “Second Wind,” a song by Billy Joel.

The song is about someone contemplating suicide and then deciding against it, he said. Goberville said that song made him recognize how adding the second dimension of music to words can have a dramatic impact.

A shy youngster, Goberville never sang in the choir, although he had a good voice.

In college, a friend who played the piano and was writing a piece of music for his sister’s wedding asked Goberville to compose the words because Goberville enjoyed writing poetry and lyrics.

“When we were finished writing it, I asked him who was going to sing it. He

looked at me like I was crazy,” Goberville said. “I tried to get out of it, but there was no way he was letting me off the hook.”

Despite being nervous, the song turned out well and the bride was happy, Goberville said. Still, Goberville considers himself more a writer than a performer. Although he does play the keyboard, he works with other people to create electronic music.

One is a musician in Canada who sends him music, to which Goberville writes lyrics. A group of musicians in Tinley Park helps Goberville create acoustic versions of his songs.

Someone once told Goberville that his style was similar to James Taylor’s, he said.

“I didn’t even know who that was,” Goberville said, “until I checked him out and realized I used to sing his songs in my head all the

time.”

Goberville encourages the artistry of students by incorporating their talents into his work. For instance, he featured a group of students in a music video, which was shot in front of a downtown mural near Joliet Central High School.

Goberville also enlisted the help of a Joliet Central High School art teacher to hold a contest for the cover art of “Electric Love.” Ruth Holmes, who has since graduated and is pursuing an art career, won the contest, he said. Holmes’ original art was incorporated into the new CD cover.

When it came time to record “Electric Love,” Goberville went to New York in search of a producer and even recorded two songs in a New York studio, he said. Goberville said he did not release those songs because he did not like the result.

By chance, Goberville overheard a student playing some music and asked where it was recorded. It was right in Joliet.

He made an appointment with SineLabs Studio, 1403 Plainfield Road, never realizing until he met the producer that it was a former student of his, Melza Jordan.

For several years, Jordan toured in a band called 17th Floor, which opened for various groups, including Earth, Wind and Fire, Jordan said.

About three years ago, Jordan returned to Joliet and opened the studio. Jordan produces for several artists and has worked with MTV and BET, Jordan said.

Jordan wasn’t completely shocked to hear that “Mr. Goberville” was making a CD, as he sometimes played his music for his students.

And how does it work having the roles reversed? Pretty well, as it turns out.

“He takes direction, but he has his own ideas, which is good,” Jordan said.

Goberville feels he has one more music project inside him.

“After that – I honestly don’t know,” Goberville said.

“I tell myself I’m done, but then I get another song idea.”

Joliet native writes book on 1987 kidnapping/murder

29 A&E | The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com

Author says one convicted of crime is innocent THE HERALD-NEWS

Lincoln-Way High music chair to be at ILMEA conference THE HERALD-NEWS NEW LENOX – Lincoln-Way Central music department chair Stacy Williams-Jackson has received an invitation to the prestigious 2014 Illinois Music Educators Association (ILMEA) Emerging L e a d e r s Stacy C o n f e r - Williams e n c e i n -Jackson September.

The Illinois Music Educators Association recognizes more than 3,500 members, and only 34 invitations have been extended to the conference, said Darcy Nendza, executive director of the ILMEA, in the letter to

Jackson.

The Emerging Leaders Conference will be held Sept. 28-29 in Normal at the Bloomington-Normal Marriot Hotel and Conference Center. Expenses for the Emerging Leaders Conference are paid for by the ILMEA. Williams-Jackson has served as the ILMEA District 1 Jazz representative from 2003 to 2006 and has guest conducted in District 1 in 2003 and 2013; in District 8 in 2011; and District 5 in 2009.

She has taught music for Lincoln-Way District 210 for 17 years. Currently, she is the music department chair for Lincoln-Way Central and teaches orchestra for Central and West students and jazz band at Central.

The book has attracted the attention of two Chicago attorneys, who have taken the case pro bono because they believe a tremendous injustice has been done. Their work resulted in a clemency hearing July 8 before the parole board in Chicago.

The board is considering a recommendation to the governor.

Ridings won several awards for investigative reporting as a reporter for daily newspapers in Ottawa and Aurora. He was presented a Studs Terkel Humanities Award from the Illinois Humanities Council in 2006.

He has written more than 20 books of local history, four of which have won awards from the Illinois State Historical Society.

“Small Justice” is about the kidnapping/murder case of Stephen Small, and how – according to author Jim Ridings – one of the people convicted was actually not guilty.

THE HERALD-NEWS PLAINFIELD – The Plainfield Public Library District celebrated the end of its summer reading program, “Paws to Read,” with more than 1,000 residents in a Grand Finale event Aug. 2.

The Grand Finale, held at the Plainfield Park District’s Village Green Park, featured crafts and games for kids, ice cream, a moon bounce, Bingo, temporary tattoos, family photos and more.

The library hosts the Grand Finale every year as a way to celebrate the end of its summer reading program, which challenges participants to read a certain number of pages each week for nine weeks out of the summer.

Although the Grand Finale is geared toward children, people of all ages participated in the library’s summer reading program. As they completed their weekly reading goals, many

earned prizes.

This year, 3,959 Plainfield residents participated in the summer reading program, and 125,127 items were checked out at the library. The library also gained 876 new cardholders this summer.

In addition to reading, the library hosted animal-themed activities that went along with the “Paws to Read” summer reading theme. Several children attended an event where they got to play doctor at a “stuffed animal” hospital, and many oth-

ers attended a pet rock activity.

One event, for both kids and adults, included a visit from New York Times bestselling author Luis Carlos Montalván, who wrote the children’s book “Tuesday Tucks Me In,” and the memoir “Until Tuesday,” about his service dog.

The library’s summer reading program events brought in 17,442 people this year. For information about summer and winter reading programs, visit www.plainfieldpubliclibrary. org or call 815-436-6639.

HERSCHER – A new book, “Small Justice” – on the 1987 kidnapping and murder of a Kankakee media heir – concludes that the woman who was convicted of the crime is innocent. The author is Jim Ridings, formerly of Joliet and now of Herscher.

Stephen Small, great-grandson of an Illinois governor and a part of the Small newspaper and radio chain, was kidnapped and buried alive in September 1987.

He was buried in a remote area of Kankakee County while the kidnapper, Danny Edwards, waited for a million-dollar ransom.

Everything went tragically wrong. Small suffocated to death. Edwards was caught,

convicted and sentenced to death.

His life was spared by Gov. George Ryan’s commutation of all death sentences in 2003.

Edwards is in Pontiac prison today.

Edwards’ girlfriend at the time, Nancy Rish, also was convicted and sentenced to life in prison. She is in Logan penitentiary.

Rish has claimed she was innocent from the day she was arrested.

Ridings spent a year and a half going through police files, trial transcripts and talking to numerous people connected to the incident.

Ridings also managed to get the only in-depth interviews from prison that Edwards and Rish have given in the past 27 years.

QUICKCRITIC REVIEWS OF NEW MOVIES ON SCREEN NOW

“AS ABOVE, SO BELOW” STARRING: Perdita Weeks, Ben Feldman, Edwin Hodge

PLOT: When a team of explorers ventures into the catacombs that lie beneath the streets of Paris, they uncover the dark secret that lies within this city of the dead.

RATED: R for bloody violence/terror and language throughout TIME: 1 hour, 33 minutes VERDICT: “Abandon all hope, ye who enter here,” is the inscription uncovered by a gang of 20-something treasure hunters in the catacomb-hopping horror flick, “As Above, So Below.” But the warning could easily apply to viewers checking out this rather hopeless mash-up of “The Descent” and “(Rec),” not to mention a dozen other found-footage movies that have clogged the screens over the past five years. Hardly credible, even for a film claiming the gates of hell lie a few hundred feet below Paris, this low budget effort from director John Erick Dowdle and writer-producer-brother Drew Dowdle provides a few late scares after plenty of eye-rolling setup, with said scares due more to the heavy sound design than the action itself. The characters are all so brazenly one-dimensional that “As Above” never passes the credibility test from the get-go. No strangers to the found-footage game, the Brothers Dowdle (as they call their production shingle) already handled the lesser U.S. remake of “(Rec),” and while that movie at least had a decent pitch, this one feels like an oddly serious take on the tongue-in-cheek Venice cave sequence from “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.” Along with a well-chosen closing song from French DJs Scratch Massive, and one or two genuine scares, that’s about the best this excursion has to offer. Come for the poster, stay for the end credits.

“THE IDENTICAL” STARRING: Blake Rayne, Ray Liotta, Ashley Judd PLOT: Twin brothers are unknowingly separated at birth; one of them becomes an iconic rock ‘n’ roll star, while the other struggles to balance his love for music and pleasing his father.

RATED: PG for thematic material and smoking TIME: 1 hour, 47 minutes

VERDICT: Here’s a bit of Elvis Presley trivia that might surprise some: The King was a twin. His brother was stillborn, and Presley, by some accounts, was haunted and fascinated by this twist of fate. He always wondered what his life would have been like had his brother survived. Howard Klausner, the screenwriter behind “The Identical,” apparently wondered the same thing. In the movie, a famous singer grows up believing his twin died at birth, only he didn’t. In this story, though, the singer is named Drexel Hemsley, which is good, because the last thing we need is more Elvis conspiracy theories. But the resemblance is clear: the voice, the hips, the slight curl of the lip.

And who better to play Drexel and his long-lost twin, Ryan Wade, than the winner of an Elvis impersonator contest? And yet, the dedication to Elvis-like veracity doesn’t necessarily pay off. Blake Rayne may look and sound like the King, but the first-time actor doesn’t have the charisma to pull off this lead role. The story begins in the 1930s, in black and white, as the impoverished Hemsleys realize they can barely take care of one child, let alone two. Like a sign from God, William Hemsley (Brian Geraghty) figures out a solution when he happens upon a tent revival where a preacher is lamenting that he and his wife cannot conceive. So the Hemsleys hand off one son to Reece (Ray Liotta) and Louise Wade (Ashley Judd) and make the couple promise to keep the secret until William and his wife have died.

The movie is the feature debut for director Dustin Marcellino, and it follows a formulaic route, charting the ups and downs of fame and fortune. The music is catchy and sounds sufficiently Elvis-like, and “The Identical” occupies a neglected niche as a family-friendly movie that isn’t geared just toward kids. But living up to a legend is an uphill battle, and the movie doesn’t ever reach those heights.

“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 top-shelf le Carre-style thriller. Here, Brosnan plays Peter Devereaux, who in his day was known for his unwillingness to form personal attachments that could compromise his duties.

Like all spies, though, he had his secrets: Though the film’s cat-andmouse scenes hardly compare to those in a Bourne movie, they’re enjoyable and only occasionally ridiculous. (A long sequence in which Devereaux and Mason taunt each other on the phone during a chase makes little sense except for those longing to hear “You’ve lost your touch, old man” cliches.)

Brosnan plays the gritty side of spookdom well, and the film offers him (sometimes puzzling) opportunities to show just how nasty he can be, even as he’s risking life and limb to save a stranger. “Don’t put your faith in me, Alice – I promise I’ll disappoint you,” Peter says at one point, and Brosnan’s grave delivery almost makes you ignore the fact that it’s exactly the kind of line Pee-wee Herman ruined for troubled loners when he gave Dottie the kiss-off back in 1985’s “Pee-wee Herman’s Big Adventure.” 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.

“IF I STAY” STARRING: Chloe Grace Moretz, Mireille Enos, Jamie Blackley

PLOT: Life changes in an instant for young Mia Hall after a car accident puts her in a coma. During an out-of-body experience, she

must decide whether to wake up and live a life far different than she had imagined.

RATED: PG-13 for thematic elements and some sexual material TIME: 1 hour, 46 minutes VERDICT: ‘Tis clearly the season for exceedingly attractive young adults in mortal peril. Just two months ago, we had the charming Shailene Woodley as a teen cancer patient, fighting for time while learning about life and love in “The Fault in Our Stars.” We had Aussie heartthrob Brenton Thwaites in “The Giver,” risking his life for the sake of truth and memory.

And now we have the sweet Chloe Grace Moretz in “If I Stay,” spending the movie in a state of limbo between life and death, after a catastrophic accident shatters her comfy world. Like all successful YA novels brought to screen, “If I Stay,” based on the 2009 teen tearjerker by Gayle Forman, brings with it a ready-made audience.

All the filmmakers need do is cast the most appealing couple they can find and stay faithful to the story, and the kids should be happy. It’s safe to say director R.J. Cutler has done that – Moretz is beautiful to look at, and as her rocker boyfriend, Jamie Blackley is satisfyingly sensitive and hunky.

And they have good lips. This is one screen couple that knows how to kiss. If only the dialogue worked as well. Moretz plays Mia, a beautiful young cellist whose locker at high school is lined with “I Love Yo Yo Ma” stickers. Mia’s a classical music nerd. One day at school, gorgeous Adam, a soft bang falling over his left eye just so, spies her playing the cello from a distance and falls for her on the spot, even though he hangs with the cool crowd. Mia falls for Adam just as fast. We see this happy meeting in flashback, because Mia is looking back at life from the precipice. That horrific accident has left her trying to decide, in the words of the Clash song, “Should I stay or should I go?” (The fact that the song isn’t used seems a wasted opportunity.) The film lives or dies (sorry) on the strength of its young lovers. And especially Moretz. Although she crinkles her nose a little too often and a little too consciously, she’s enticing enough to make you hope that she, well, stays.

“SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR” STARRING: Mickey Rourke, Jessica Alba, Josh Brolin PLOT: Some of Sin City’s most hard-boiled citizens cross paths with a few of its more reviled inhabitants.

RATED: R for strong, brutal stylized violence throughout, sexual content, nudity and brief drug use

TIME: 1 hour, 42 minutes VERDICT: Last month, director James Gunn turned a comic book story into the movie hit of the summer. “Guardians of the Galaxy” has raked in hundreds of millions of dollars, making fans out of people who had never heard of the Marvel series. “Sin City: A Dame to Kill For” is not that kind of comic book adaptation. Director Robert Rodriguez first brought “Sin City” to the screen nine years ago, and here, he has turned more of Frank Miller’s brutally violent stories into a stylishly constructed neo-noir nightmare. Both “Sin City” films are for a niche audience that can handle copious amounts of eye-gouging, dismemberment, finger-breaking, decapitation and self-inflicted slicing. “Sin City: A Dame to Kill For” is as visually imaginative as its predecessor. It’s almost entirely in black and white, with the exception of periodic pops of color – a halo of orange curls, a blue coat, a river of blood – and most of the action was shot against a green screen, so the finished product is a slick hybrid of live action and animation. Where “Sin City” was equally vicious, it also was quite funny at times. “A Dame to Kill For” feels less incisive and sillier. And the sequel isn’t nearly as exciting or visionary.

The aesthetic quality is still there, even if there haven’t been too many great leaps since Rodriguez unveiled “Sin City” in 2005.

But the stories aren’t nearly as engrossing. Fans of Frank Miller’s work will, of course, see the movie, and they won’t care about curious leaps in time or dialogue that might look better on the page than it sounds out loud. This isn’t going to reach a “Guardians”-size audience. Then again, Rodriguez, who’s a huge fan of Miller’s work, probably didn’t intend for it to.

PUZZLES SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Pablo Picasso said, “There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality.”

At the bridge table, we start with 52 cards. Afterward, once the bidding and play begin, the players can be accurate or make mistakes.

What do you think about the bidding in this deal? How should South plan the play in three no-trump after West leads the club two (low from a tripleton in partner’s unsupported suit)?

South was right to upgrade his hand, counting it as worth 18 points. He had an excellent fivecard suit, three aces and one king.

After North responded one spade, East should have made a takeout double. The two-club overcall was bizarre. Then South rebid two notrump, showing 18 or 19 (or a poor 20) points. That was a reasonable choice. (However, if North-South had been using support doubles, South should have doubled to show three spades. Then North would have rebid two diamonds, and South could have continued with two no-trump.) North’s raise to game was optimistic.

South started with eight top tricks: one spade, five diamonds and two clubs. He had to gain a second spade trick. So he took the first trick with dummy’s king and led the spade jack. When East covered with the queen, South won with his ace and played another spade, happy to see the eight and nine from West.

East took this trick and returned ... the club queen. He should, of course, have first cashed the heart king (lead king from ace-king and from king-queen after trick one) to get a signal from partner.

Dear Abby: I have been dating “Chris” for almost five years.

He’s my high school sweetheart.

We feel we’re ready to move in together.

The issue is I have a cat (“Silky”) and a dog named “Chips”; Chris can’t stand them.

He has said he doesn’t want Silky to live in our home and he would make her an outdoor cat. He also doesn’t want Chips to come with us.

I feel if I decide to bring them with me, Chris will make them feel miserable. Silky is afraid of him, and Chris doesn’t like Chips getting close to him.

Please tell me what to do! – Stuck In The Middle In California Dear Stuck: Wake up! You are an animal lover; your boyfriend clearly has an antipathy toward

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips them. Your cat is afraid of Chris because she knows he doesn’t like her or he did something that scared her. If he makes Silky become an outdoor cat (or she gets loose “by accident”), she may be at serious risk. And your dog will be miserable on the receiving end of constant rejection.

It is very important that you learn to live independently. Because Chris is your high school sweetheart and you haven’t dated many others, it’s important that you take some time and date other people before deciding to move in with ANYONE. Dear Abby: I’m not sure if this

has been mentioned in your column before, but when staying at a hotel, it is important never to reveal personal or financial information over the in-room phone, even if the caller claims to be an employee of the hotel.

Sometimes scammers will call the front desk of a hotel and provide a generic name or room number. Unsuspecting desk agents may transfer the call to that room, and the scammer will then pose as a desk agent. He or she will say something plausible to get the guest to provide credit information over the phone, and in a flash, the guest is a victim of theft. – John In Ogden, Utah Dear John: Whoa! Travelers can never be too careful.

Alternative treatments for hot flashes available Dear Doctor K: I have terrible hot flashes. My doctor no longer recommends hormone replacement therapy because he says it has heart risks. Is there anything else I can take?

Dear Reader: Hot flashes are a common symptom of menopause.

They probably result from changing hormone levels. My patients describe them as a sudden, intensely uncomfortable onslaught of heat. They are often accompanied by a rapid heartbeat, headache, nausea or dizziness.

For years, women took hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to ease hot flashes and other symptoms of menopause.

Indeed, many women continued to take HRT after the hot flashes had gone, in order to achieve improved heart health. Then, studies showed that long-term use of HRT in women older than their late 50s (or more than 10 years out from menopause) actually increased the risk of heart disease.

That study (published in 2002) led many doctors to stop prescribing HRT short-term – even just to relieve hot flashes. In my judgment, that was a mistake. In fact, I prescribe HRT in women experiencing hot flashes, except in unusual situations. I have discussed the reasons in a previous column: The 2002 study primarily

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff included women at least 10 years past menopause, not women in menopause, like you.

However, you asked about treatments for hot flashes other than HRT. One effective alternative may be antidepressant drugs. That is not because hot flashes are caused by depression.

The antidepressant drugs change brain chemistry, and the changes they cause seem also to reduce hot flashes.

Escitalopram (Lexapro), for example, is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant. It reduces the frequency, severity and discomfort of hot flashes, compared to a placebo (dummy pill).

Researchers at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital looked at the antidepressant duloxetine (Cymbalta). This is a different type of antidepressant. Depressed women treated with duloxetine found that their menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes, improved.

An antiseizure drug, gabapentin (Neurontin), may also reduce hot flashes.

Several over-the-counter herb-

al remedies also claim to prevent or treat hot flashes. Black cohosh is one example. But many of these herbal treatments have not been well studied.

In the last couple of years, women’s health experts have started to rethink the role of HRT. They still discourage it as a long-term treatment. But they are starting to reconsider it for shortterm use, to relieve temporary symptoms (including hot flashes) that do not respond to other therapies.

Finally, don’t forget to try simple, non-drug strategies. They can cool you down without any side effects: • Turn the thermostat down.

• Keep bedding light.

• Dress in layers, so you can adjust your clothing when a hot flash comes on.

• Limit caffeine, which can worsen hot flashes.

• Carry a small, clip-on fan with you.

I would recommend that you try these non-pharmaceutical remedies first, and go on to pharmaceuticals only if they don’t give you sufficient relief.

is legally unattached

Dr. Wallace: I’m 19 and have a great job for a large insurance company in Chicago.

I really like working there. There is a really nice guy who is 24 and married who also works in our office. We happen to have the same break and lunchtime together. He has told me that he knows that his wife has been cheating on him, not only with one but with two guys. He keeps asking me what he should do, but all I can say is that he should divorce her, but he says, “It’s not that easy.”

Last night he asked me if I would go out to dinner with him sometime, but I told him that I would have to think about it. I like him and if he were not married, I would say yes, but he is married.

Do you think I should go out with him? Please tell me what to do. – Connie, Evanston Dear Connie: Having dinner with this guy could be the beginning of a relationship that is not acceptable. Only if he becomes legally unattached should an evening dinner with him become a popular pastime.

Dr. Wallace: I told my best friend that I like a certain boy. That very same day she went up to him and told him. That same day after school he came up to me and said, “I hear that you like me.” I could have died right then and there. All I could think of to say was, “In your dreams.”

He then walked away, saying nothing.

Now I’ve got problems. First, I’m mad at my friend for having a big mouth. Next, I basically told the guy that I really like to get lost, and

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace finally, I also made him feel like a fool. Help! – Allison, Peoria Dear Allison: Don’t be mad at your friend. She might have thought that she was doing you a big favor. And it might turn out that she did. At least this boy now knows who you are. It’s now up to you to see that he gets to know you a little better – and I don’t mean in his dreams .

Dr. Wallace: In summer I wear extra dark sunglasses for two reasons. First, I want eye protection, and next, they make me look cool.

My mother said she read that extra dark sunglasses could be harmful to your eyes. I think my mom is mistaken, but I’m writing to you for an answer, just in case she isn’t. What is the story? – Keith, DeKalb Dear Keith: It all depends if your dark glasses are filter-coated.

Dr. Paul Sieving at the University of Michigan Medical Center says that while darker sunglasses are best for reducing the brightness of the sun, they will also cause pupils to dilate or enlarge, which permits more ultraviolet rays to enter the eye. Dark glasses should always be equipped with an ultraviolet-blocking filter coating. Untreated lenses let in more harmful rays, which can lead to cataracts and a form of blindness called macular degeneration.

Taste of Travel: The beauty of Mirbeau

By CHARLENE PETERS More Content Now Like a mad scientist, Executive Chef Stephen Coe and his team gather in the kitchen tailored for immaculate presentations of molecular gastronomy. Plates are served with the utmost flavor-forward and creative recipes in mind to guests who dine in the spectacularly designed restaurant, Henri-Marie, inside the newly built French manor in The Pinehills development of Plymouth, Massachusetts, Mirbeau Resort & Spa. The spa culture’s bar has just been lifted with the opening of the 14,000 squarefoot Spa Mirbeau, with a replica of Plymouth Rock inside the oversized transition room. Surrounding the rock is a pool of water that awaits complimentary foot soaks before a treatment.

Upon entering, the sensation of royalty and calmness surrounds. Each treatment room has a gas fireplace for ambiance, but the heat is an option. There is no choice but to surrender to the capable hands of your massage therapist.

Architecturally, Mirbeau Inn is fashioned after a French Manor, with interior design of French country and toile-patterned drapes and bedding. The guest rooms have claw foot tubs, as well as walkouts to verandas overlooking the gardens.

Every inch of Mirbeau’s grounds was built with the intention to be viewed. Just outside of Mirbeau is The Pinehills golf course and walking paths, so there’s activity for everyone. But if you want to stay inside, the state-of-the-art fitness room and exercise room welcomes you.

The exquisiteness of Mirbeau Inn & Spa astounds me, and I feel the Francophile in me churning as I roam from the Bistro to Henri-Marie to be seated for a movie-themed seven-course dinner.

As it turns out, it’s a bit

The newly opened Henri-Marie restaurant of Mirbeau Inn & Spa is located in The Pinehills community of Plymouth, Massachusetts. more than seven courses, beginning with an amuse bouche of one French macaroon that isn’t just a macaroon. This small, buttery yellow treat is packed with molecular gastronomical genius.

The instruction is to let it sit on your tongue, hitting your palate for a while before slowly breaking it up.

The sensation is that you’ve just eaten a large handful of buttered popcorn, and now you’re ready for the movie, thanks to Pastry Chef Patrick Ford.

Before your first course is served, however, you’ll receive a petit popover with honeycomb butter made by bees owned by the chef. The stage is set, and the experience is culinary theater.

The first course is “Forrest Gump” peas and carrots, to which I eat some of the molecular-structured carrots, but hand over the pod of peas to my husband, since some things never change from my childhood dislikes.

Next is “James and the Giant Peach” of scallop ceviche pieces in a peach consume with panna cotta made so perfectly I find myself slowing down to enjoy each smooth scoop.

And then, “American Pie” deconstructed with cheddar ice cream of the slightest cheese flavor, a scoop of green apple pie filling and a dehydrated slab of speck prosciutto in a presentation worthy of being served to royalty. And it’s delicious.

The next film, er … course is “A Fish Called Wanda” of seared tuna, edible sand, avocado mousse, tobiko (fish roe) with black vinaigrette.

It took a while for us to figure out the little black balls were squid in tapioca.

The next course proved the most filling: “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs,” local spaghetti squash under a large, dense meatball soaking in tomato broth and topped with Parmesan foam.

But the next plate was a show all on its own. “Pineap-

ple Express” was served by Coe and Ford so they could have fun lifting off the lid to a smoky welcome pineapple intermezzo.

And finally, “I Am The Cheese” was a showcase of Chef Coe’s (who also had a stint at Thomas Keller’s French Laundry) honey and seasonal house made jams with cheeses, and the final plate of Augustus Gloop (“Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory”) is a menagerie of truffle, nibs, chocolate milk and more decadence.

Breakfast overlooking the gardens next morning keeps the French theme going with duck confit and sweet potato hash served on a crispy local egg, and croque Madame with a cup of cappuccino.

So, although I know I’m at Plymouth, there is no indication that I’m dining like a pilgrim, except that I am eating from local sources.

And the mad scientists/ molecular gastronomers shake up a menu like no other.
