Joliet council faces dilemma: used cars or used blood?

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Century Tile is threatening to sell its empty Joliet store to a business that buys blood and plasma from donors.

The City Council will reconsider its decision last month to block a DriveTime used-car business from going into the site rather than face the prospect of drawing in people looking to sell their blood at 1395 N. Larkin Ave. City Manager Jim Hock noted Tuesday evening that he had previous experience with such a business in another city, and people would come in buses to give blood for money and then head to a nearby liquor store.

“It doesn’t sound like a good project to me,” Councilman John Gerl said. “My concern is while there’s not a liquor store across the street, there is a high school across the street. And I’m not sure a high school and a use like this is compatible.”

The site is across Larkin from Joliet

Bob O’Dekirk Joliet mayor

Catholic Academy and near Hufford Junior High School.

Council members considered the possibility that Century Tile was bluffing.

“Wow, talk about luck,” Councilman Larry Hug said, noting that the store had been vacant for months before the DriveTime proposal came along.

The problem facing the city is that DriveTime needed a special-use permit to move into the site, because of city zoning laws for used car businesses. There is no such zoning law restricting blood and plasma centers.

“There’s nothing we can do to prevent it,” Hock told the council. “They

can come in tomorrow to get a permit.”

Hock said someone already has been to the city building department asking what permits would be needed to open the blood center.

The other problem, Hock said, is that while DriveTime had the prospect of generating $200,000 a year in sales taxes for the city, there would be no sales tax coming off the blood center. “ ... They’re not selling anything,” Hock said. “They’re actually purchasing.”

Sales to hospitals or other users of the blood would not be taxed by the city, he said.

The council will consider at its meetings Aug. 1 and 2 whether to rescind the vote against DriveTime.

“I have no problem bringing it back to the council’s next meeting for a debate on this,” Mayor Bob O’Dekirk said.

Attorney Michael Martin, who represents DriveTime, was at the meeting and told the council that the company still is interested in locating at the site.

Joliet council mulls buying the Rialto

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The City Council on Tuesday entertained the idea of buying the Rialto Square Theatre – a possibility that the Rialto apparently is not welcoming.

Council members were not so sure they liked the idea either but directed the city manager to look into the matter.

There is no serious offer to buy or sell the Rialto.

But Mayor Bob O’Dekirk said the topic was discussed in closed session after the Monday council meeting, and he thought it should be made public at the Tuesday meeting.

O’Dekirk appeared to take the idea seriously, expressing some frustration over the city’s relationship with Rialto management.

“If we had control of the theater,

we could control the business model,” O’Dekirk said. “Right now, we have no say.

They don’t want to hear what we have to say. They’ve made that clear.”

O’Dekirk said he suggested the idea of buying the Rialto during a meeting with a new business group formed to advise the theater. At the meeting, the mayor was asked whether the city would consider buying 2 Rialto Square, an office building that the Rialto board owns but is considering selling. O’Dekirk said his response was, why not buy the theater?

The Rialto board apparently is not interested in selling the theater and believes it couldn’t if it wanted to.

“They commented to us through their attorney that they can’t sell the Rialto,” City Manager Jim Hock told the council.

“They have no interest in selling the theater to us. That’s a hurdle you’d have to overcome.”

Councilman Jim McFarland said he did not think the city should consider buying the Rialto, saying Joliet has enough trouble with ownership of Silver Cross Field and funding completion of the multi-modal center under construction downtown.

“I don’t see how the city can afford to buy the Rialto,” McFarland said.

Councilwoman Jan Quillman said she was not sold on the idea, but she also did not want to see the theater shut down.

“We have to keep it vibrant somehow,” Quillman said.

The Rialto has yet to get itself back on track since severe cash-flow problems late last year put it behind on payroll taxes. The city stepped in to back shows to keep them from canceling but has since refused to send the Rialto more money.

The Rialto board now is looking at proposals to turn theater management over to a private company.

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Excessive heat is expected to hit Will and Grundy counties – and the rest of the Chicago region – Thursday and Friday.

National Weather Service meteorologists expect the weather to be partly cloudy Thursday and Friday with high temperatures in the mid-90s. The NWS issued Tuesday an excessive-heat watch for later in the week, warning of hot and humid conditions on those days.

The combination of mid-90s temperatures with dew points approaching the upper 70s will mean heat indexes between 105 and possibly 115 degrees, which is considered dangerous by the

NWS. The heat index is a measure of how hot it feels when relative humidity is factored in with actual air temperature.

NWS meteorologist Kevin Donofrio said that while there have been days this summer when temperatures were in the 90s, the heat didn’t last long.

“This time around, people should be prepared for at least two days of dangerous heat conditions and four days of uncomfortable heat conditions,” he said.

Compared with the past two summers, this one has been warmer, he said.

For the month of July so far, tem-

peratures generally have been hotter than the month last year and in 2014, according to NWS preliminary monthly climate data. Temperatures were hotter in 2013 and especially 2012, when they exceeded 100 degrees.

In response to the anticipated excessive heat, Joliet officials warned residents and reminded them to check on the elderly, those with medical conditions and those with special needs during the extremely hot weather, according to a city news release.

People should not sit in hot cars, even for a short time. Children and pets also should never be in a hot car.

Older adults, young children and those who are sick or overweight are more likely to succumb to the extreme heat, according to Ready.gov, a website of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

People living in urban areas may be at greater risk of the effects of prolonged

McFarland makes first court appearance on DUI charge

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Joliet Councilman Jim McFarland appeared Tuesday in court for the first time on a drunken driving charge.

McFarland was charged with driving under the influence in connection with an incident July 10. He refused to take a breathalyzer test when stopped at 2:26 a.m. on Interstate 80 in the New Lenox area, state police said. He also was charged with improper lane use, driving 15 to 20 mph over the Jim speed limit and operat- McFarland ing an uninsured motor vehicle, according to court records.

McFarland was greeted Tuesday by Judge Daniel Rippy during his appearance at the Will County Courthouse in Joliet when he was called before the bench and replied with, “Good morning,” but otherwise let defense attorney George Lenard address the court.

Lenard filed a motion to preserve re-

cordings of police radio transmissions and phone calls from the time of McFarland’s arrest. A Will County assistant state’s attorney did not object.

Lenard also provided the court with proof of insurance for McFarland.

Rippy told McFarland to return to court Aug. 16 and to have a nice day.

McFarland said, “Thank you,” and immediately left the courtroom.

While McFarland was sitting in the audience before court began, Mayor Bob O’Dekirk walked past him – apparently in search of a judge or attorney.

It did not appear either man saw the other during the brief time O’Dekirk was in the courtroom.

McFarland on Monday declined to comment at the advice of Lenard. His bond was his driver’s license and a recognizance bond of $3,000, according to court records.

Lenard said his client plans to plead not guilty to all charges.

“Mr. McFarland is presumed to be innocent of all the charges against him,” Lenard said Monday. “We are in the process of conducting our own investigation.”

Prosecutor: More saw Hug punch

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A special prosecutor expects to determine by next month whether a man will face charges for allegedly hitting a Joliet City Council member at a bar earlier this year.

Mark Koenig, a Joliet real estate broker, was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery after he allegedly hit Larry Hug on March 31 at the Double J Sports Bar, 1001 Essington Road in Joliet. Video released in April by police shows Hug taking at least two blows with an open hand. But criminal charges against Koenig have not been filed in Will County Court.

“I learned from social media of additional witnesses who were not identified that night and have reached out to Joliet police to interview those witnesses,” Special Prosecutor Dave Neal said Tuesday.

Neal has been assigned to prosecute the case after the Will County State’s Attorney’s Office cited a potential conflict.

Will County Board member Annette Parker and her husband, Brian Parker, a county employee, were present during the altercation.

“After those interviews [are done], we will make a final decision whether it’s appropriate to file charges.”

Dave Neal

Special prosecutor

Hug has said he and Koenig began arguing about the Rialto Square Theatre management. Hug at times has criticized Rialto management at council meetings and urged cuts in funding provided by the city. Annette Parker works at the Rialto.

“After those interviews [are done], we will make a final decision whether it’s appropriate to file charges,” Neal said.

He expects that will be done before the case is called for review Aug. 11.

Carlos Tinoco, who was also in the bar that night, said in April that Hug insulted Marines, and that Koenig, whose father is a veteran, took offense. Tinoco operates a sign company that provides signs for Koenig’s company.

Waste Management to pick up trash early in Joliet due to extreme heat SHAW MEDIA JOLIET – Because of the extreme high temperatures and humidity and their effect on its drivers, Waste Management has announced that pickup for Thursday and Friday will start earlier than usual.

Pickup of garbage, recycling and yard waste that is regularly

scheduled for this Thursday and Friday will begin collection at 6 a.m. instead of the usual 7 a.m. start, according to a news release from the city.

The city of Joliet and Waste Management recommend that Joliet residents place their containers outside the night before their scheduled pickup.

• THE HEAT

Continued from page 3 heat conditions, as asphalt and concrete store heat longer and gradually release it at night, which can produce higher nighttime temperatures, according to the website.

Joliet city officials urged seniors to contact their local aging services agencies or the Illinois Department on Aging Senior Help Line at 800-2528966 for assistance with locating senior centers, adult day service sites and other buildings that serve as cooling centers.

Joliet Deputy Fire Chief Ray Randich said firefighters will be staying in Thursday and Friday and not doing extra work in light of the excessive heat.

Joliet Fire Chief Joe Formhals said in a news release that heat adds extra stress to the body if people spend time outdoors, and they should take extra precautions, such as drinking plenty of water.

Designated cooling centers will be available to residents seeking relief from the heat.

Joliet city officials said the Louis Joliet Mall, Illinois Department of Unemployment Services at 45 E. Webster St., Illinois Rehabilitation Service Center at 1617 W. Jefferson St. and other public places will give shelter.

Throughout the rest of Will County, cooling centers will be available in Bolingbrook, Braidwood, Elwood, Frankfort and Homer Glen, among other communities, according to the Will County website.

Committee holds off on owner’s representative for sheriff’s facility

mmallory@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Will County Board’s Capital Improvements Committee appeared to move away Tuesday morning from the idea of a third-party owner’s representative to manage, on the board’s behalf, construction of the new Will County Sheriff’s Facility.

On July 6 the committee discussed the purpose and potential cost of an owner’s representative. It was estimated to cost about $200,000 but could ultimately save the county money on multimillion-dollar projects, committee members said. Owner’s representatives work to prevent extra costs and keep projects on time.

Debate at recent meetings has centered on the role of Dave Tkac, deputy chief of staff for the Will County Executive’s Office, who works regularly with firms contracted for design and construction of the new sheriff’s facility and new Will County Justice Center. Nick Palmer, chief of staff for the County Executive’s Office, on

July 6 defended Tkac’s abilities and role with the projects to the committee.

Chairwoman Ragan Freitag, R-Wilmington, began the meeting Tuesday by saying she’d like to research the prospects of an owner’s representative more, adding the committee isn’t ready to move forward with a request for qualifications for the position.

County Board Speaker Jim Moustis, R-Frankfort, said Tkac takes orders from the Executive’s Office, not the board. He then said if Tkac is going to report to the board, there needs to be a clear understanding that Tkac would take some direction from it.

“If we can work that out, I’m on board for the Sheriff’s Facility,” Moustis said.

Moustis said it comes down to proper relationships being established between the design team, construction managers and board. If those are reached, he said an owner’s representative wouldn’t be needed.

Freitag said she is happy with Tkac’s work and the work of the com-

JOLIET – Joliet Public Schools District 86 will host a public reception from 3 to 5 p.m. July 28 for the community to meet Theresa R. Rouse, the new superintendent for District 86.

The reception will be held at the J.F. Kennedy Administrative Center, 420 N. Raynor Theresa Ave. in Joliet.

Rouse Rouse comes to Joliet from King City Union School District in California, where she served as superintendent since 2012, according to a news release from the district. Prior to that, she spent five years at the Santa Cruz County Office of Education in Santa Cruz, California, where she worked in a variety of roles, including associate superintendent of educational services.

Rouse has over 29 years of educational experience and is originally from Indiana. She succeeds Charles Coleman, who retired at the beginning of July.

mittee, and encouraged members to attend weekly construction update meetings once they begin.

Committee member Denise Winfrey, D-Joliet, asked Assistant State’s Attorney Mary Tatroe about drafting a temporary work agreement to specify “temporary marching orders” for Tkac. Tatroe replied that it’s legal to do so, but it would have to be discussed with Will County Executive Larry Walsh Sr.’s office.

Two committee members who spoke July 6 in favor of requesting qualifications for an owner’s representative position – Vice Chairman Mike Fricilone, R-Homer Glen, and Chuck Maher, R-Naperville – were not at the meeting Tuesday.

Whether an owner’s representative will be used during construction of the much-larger Will County Justice Center also remains to be seen. The two projects are at different stages.

Moustis said he doubts Tkac has the qualifications to manage construction of the proposed 10-floor courthouse by himself, adding that very few people do.

Joliet D-204 students to benefit from state examination changes

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Joliet High School District 204 superintendent said students will be at a great advantage with the change in statewide exams this school year.

Superintendent Cheryl McCarthy told board members at Tuesday’s meeting how the Illinois State Board of Education will provide the College Board’s SAT exam to replace the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers test.

“Our students will be at a great advantage this year. … Our juniors will be tested with ACT and SAT [exams],” she said.

In June, the board approved an administrative recommendation to continue with the ACT’s EPAS system this school year at a cost lower than the College Board’s SAT suite.

One of the reasons district officials wanted to stay with EPAS testing was because the ACT has been the established college assessment in the Midwest region for a decade. District

“Our students will be at a great advantage this year. … Our juniors will be tested with ACT and SAT [exams].”

Cheryl McCarthy

Joliet High School District 204 superintendent

officials also recommended creating a transition plan for the SAT suite nevertheless, believing the state would eventually transition to it.

With the upcoming change, McCarthy said, the district and families will have a good idea on how students perform on each exam.

She also mentioned to the board that it was noted the state had been sanctioned by the federal government because of the way the PARCC test was implemented.

“It wasn’t being implemented for all or one grade level,” she said.

ISBE officials said the change in ex-

ams was done after speaking with parents, administrators, unions and others.

Many families opposed the test.

Blended learning

A report on blended learning at District 204 was given by Karla Guseman, the district’s assistant superintendent of educational services.

Blended learning courses have both face-to-face and online instruction.

That gives students more flexibility and control while also exposing them to online learning they are likely to encounter in college, according to the report. The district first implemented blended learning opportunities in the 2014-15 school year.

Data for students in English, government and economics blended sections showed a greater percentage of them had 70 percent – a C grade or higher average – or higher for the semester in comparison with students enrolled in traditional sections.

District officials plan to develop and use surveys for students and teachers to gather more information, according to the report.

District librarian Marnie Garcia commended the support shown by teachers and staff toward the situation.

“I am glowing in my seat right now. I look out and see almost our entire staff and I’m overwhelmed. I am proud to work for this district and I am asking for a standing ovation as a group hug to Chris,” Garcia said, at which point everyone in the audience

rose and clapped.

After the public comment, Maier thanked those who came to support him.

“I am overwhelmed by the number of supporters,” he said. “This shows the process of healing for our community and staff. I could not have done it without all of you, so thank you very much.”

New associate principal named

Also Monday, the board approved a replacement for Associate Principal Scott Stehlik, who presented his resignation as he has accepted an assistant principal position in Lombard at a middle school.

After a brief closed session, the board unanimously approved Dean and Athletic Director Jessica Boe as associate principal for the 201617 school year. Members also voted unanimously for sixth-grade social studies teacher Michael Sand to replace Boe as dean and athletic director.

MORRIS – A large crowd came Monday night to the Morris Elementary School District 54 board meeting, mostly to vocalize support for the district’s principal.

Board President Jerald White said he had heard that rumors had been spread via social media and other sources that the board was going to ask Principal Chris Maier to step down from his position because of his association with the June 21 crash that killed Mark and Jan Wendling.

Jan was a math teacher at Shabbona Middle School and Mark worked as an engineer at the Exelon LaSalle County Generating Station in Marseilles.

The couple were bicycling on Old Stage Road in Morris when they were struck by a 16-year-old driver of an SUV. The crash report states the vehicle involved in the crash is owned by Maier. The teenage driver has been issued a citation for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident; authorities have said the investigation into the crash continues and that they are waiting for toxicology results.

“This is a personal matter, not a

professional matter for this board,” White said to the audience.

“It is my job as Chris’ superintendent to support him. The last thing I want to do is walk away from Chris Maier,” Superintendent Shannon Dudek added. “I know we need to wrap our arms around Chris at this time. That’s where we are today.”

The three people who spoke Monday evening all voiced support for Maier. First to stand was Morris resident Stacey Button, who has three children in the district.

“My daughter lost her eighth-grade teacher and she was left to deal with that this summer. Now she is moving schools and that’s traumatic. I have other children who attend White Oak, and I feel that losing our principal will be traumatic for all of our children,” Button said. “There is no reason he should be asked to step down.”

Morris resident Kyle Carli stated he had children in first grade and kindergarten in the district. He mentioned the crash, but then commented on the character of the principal.

“I feel like Chris has been pulled into this like one of the victims, and I’m here to show support for him from the community,” Carli said. “It would

Board votes to reject bids on bike trail project

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – The Plainfield Village Board discussed a series of public works measures Monday evening.

Allen Persons, director of public works, said the department went out to bid for a project connecting bike trails in the area of 127th Street and 248th Avenue. The engineer’s estimate of the project was $180,000, but bids ranged from $225,000 to $500,000. Persons said it appeared there were some concerns about a retaining wall in the project.

“We’d like to revisit the design of the retaining wall,” Persons said in a video of the meeting posted to YouTube. “This gives us an opportunity to rebid the project and reevaluate the costs.”

All board members present voted in favor of a rejection of the bids. It then voted unanimously to approve a one-year contract with low bidder USALCO to supply alum for the vil-

lage’s wastewater treatment facility at 20 percent less than the current cost. The board also authorized the purchase of two commercial lawn mowers from Turf Team Inc. at a total cost of $23,038.

Persons said that next Monday a study on downtown parking will be presented at the board’s Committee of the Whole workshop. There will also be discussion about street networks and resurfacing in the next five years.

In property-related news, the board voted, 3-1, to rezone 14125 S. Van Dyke Road from industrial to residential property. Trustee Ed O’Rourke was absent and Trustee Jim Racich was not present at the time of the vote.

Trustee Bill Lamb voted no.

In technology news, the board approved of the village’s cyber liability policy through BCS Insurance at a cost of $5,567.

Crest Hill council OKs TIF policy

By ANNA SCHIER

aschier@shawmedia.com CREST HILL – Officials took a step toward making Crest Hill more development-friendly at a City Council meeting Monday, when members voted to adopt a tax increment financing policy.

“We are doing everything possible to attract new development to the city of Crest Hill,” Mayor Ray Soliman said in an interview Tuesday.

A TIF district is a designated area where base valuation of property value is frozen, according to a document provided by the city. As improvements are made to property in the district, the base increases and additional tax funds generated are spent within the area.

Crest Hill does not have any TIF districts, nor have potential districts been identified, City Administrator Jim Elmquist said. But he said the potential for TIF areas could be attractive to developers.

“It’s a pretty strong tool to utilize for redevelopment projects,” he said Tuesday.

The new policy states Crest Hill will follow all procedures listed in its development handbook, the state Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act and the best practices for TIF districts established by the Government

Finance Officers Association. The policy also requires a formal application process prior to consideration of a development proposal and developer disclosure of relevant documents and information.

Economic Development & Zoning Manager Scott McMaster said Tuesday that the policy will be included in the city’s economic development program, which still is in the process of being established and will also offer facade grant and sales tax incentive options.

Crest Hill has had some interest from developers in coming to the city, said McMaster, who hopes the TIF policy and economic development program will help attract them.

“It’s time for Crest Hill to be competitive with everybody around us,” he said.

The council and city staff discussed the policy at two previous work sessions before the approval Monday, Elmquist said. All council members present voted in favor of the policy. Alderwoman Barbara Sklare was not in attendance.

In other Crest Hill development news, McMaster said work began last week on an O’Reilly Auto Parts location at Route 30 and Kellogg Street. The retailer plans to open in time for the 2016 holiday season.

Officer praised

For the second time in as many months, Channahon Police Officer Ed Bischoff was praised by the board for actions he took that saved a life.

In June, Bischoff, along with Officer Mike Yoakum, was recognized by the village board for his quick response in saving the life of a man who was suffering a heroin overdose.

Last week, Bischoff responded to a 911 call made from a local gas station for what was described as a person who had passed out from the heat. When Bischoff arrived, he found a man who was unresponsive, in the middle of a heart attack.

Police Chief Jeff Wold said during Monday’s meeting that Bischoff quickly performed CPR on the victim and used an automatic external defibrillator three times to restart the man’s heart.

The heart attack was officially diagnosed later at a hospital.

“He saved his life,” Wold told trustees.

Wojowski and Margie Bonuchi commended another successful Plainfield Fest. Wojowski added some constructive criticism, saying he thinks the fest is outgrowing its location.

“I noticed several people having trouble with their strollers getting through sidewalks that commingle with the rides and the crowds that were there,” he said in the video.

Mayor Michael Collins said Police Chief John Konopek has asked the village’s police force to remain vigilant in light of violent attacks toward police in several communities across the country. Collins then asked Plainfield residents to report unusual actions in subdivisions, shopping areas and places of employment.

During the police chief’s report at the end of the meeting, Konopek said there has been an outpouring of support from the community since the events occurred.

“The support over the last two weeks has been absolutely outstanding,” Konopek said in the video.

“Except for Sept. 11, more so than anything I’ve experienced in my 20plus years in the village. I just want to publicly thank everyone for the support.”

CHANNAHON – The Channahon Village Board on Monday amended the village’s 2015-16 budget.

One change was that the village used about $300,000 less from its general fund balance reserves than it had anticipated. The change was due to a fiscally conservative original budget, Finance Director Heather Wagonblott told the board.

The Police and Public Works departments also ended the fiscal year under budget, Wagonblott said.

The board also discussed, but did not take action on, a consideration brought by Wagonblott that the village begin investing surpluses in municipal bonds. Three of the village’s certificates of deposit will mature this month, worth about $1.5 million.

According to Matt Bernardi, a representative from Bernardi Securities, which could manage the bonds

should the village decide to pursue the option, investing in AAA-rated and AA-rated, high-grade taxable municipal bonds could bring Channahon $35,000 to $40,000 more than CD investments over a five-year period.

Also at the meeting, the board hired Lauren Carhart as the village’s new accounting clerk at an annual salary of $37,806.

Village President Missey Moorman Schumacher also reminded those present that the Channahon Police Department’s National Night Out will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. July 27 at the department. The event will include department tours, a live band, a car show, jump houses, a 50/50 raffle and refreshments.

Also at the event, the Channahon Park District and the Three Rivers Public Library District will show a movie at dusk in Central Park.

Trustee Scott Slocum was absent from Monday’s meeting.

Diana Stonitsch loved Joliet and proudly spotlighted it

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com

JOLIET – Diana Stonitsch had tremendous pride in her family – her immediate family and her Joliet family.

Her television show, “Special People,” which ran at least 15 years on Community TV Channel 6, showed that pride and introduced viewers to the people Stonitsch felt made Joliet great – from the chief of police to the Diana homecoming queen to Stonitsch everyone in between.

“My mom just loved people and she loved Joliet,” said Alice “Kiki” Schwartz of Chicago, one of Stonitsch’s three daughters. “She was the biggest cheerleader for Joliet of anyone

I know. And when she talked to you, she made you feel like the most special person in the world.”

Diana died Saturday at age 87.

Rarely seen without one of her many hats, Stonitsch was also the “On The Spot” commentator at the fashion shows spotlighting the former Hansen’s Villa in Manhattan. These shows were held Wednesdays at Al’s Steak House in Joliet, Schwartz said.

Whether a person modeled for a fashion show, appeared on “Special People” or was associated with any number of Joliet’s organizations – many of which received a mention on “Special People” – Stonitsch never forgot a face and remembered important details about each person.

“She celebrated all walks of life,” Schwartz said. “She was a very special person.”

and direction.

“She always said, ‘Shoot for the moon,’” Schwartz said. “’Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.’”

Schwartz paused and then added, “All I know is that heaven has got another angel and it’s a lot brighter up there now.”

Diana also is the mother of Laura Conrad of Arizona and Mary Augello of Park Ridge, the grandmother of three and the great-grandmother of two. Funeral services will be scheduled at a later date.

PEORIA – With the retail debut last month of the Cat S60 Smartphone, the device joins the ranks of countless Caterpillar Inc. products that aren’t big, yellow, iron and made to move dirt.

The phone – built to be rugged like other Caterpillar-brand cellular devices but unique among all mobile phones in that it has a thermal imaging camera – instead aims to insert the Caterpillar brand into customers’ lives off construction sites.

But the device, like entire lines of apparel, luggage and other consumer goods, isn’t available at all in the United States. And when it makes its estimated third-quarter domestic debut, it will only be available in limited numbers from a small set of cellular carriers.

One reason for that type of distribution of Caterpillar cellphones is technical – the company licensed to manufacture the phones created the devices using cellular technology that is standard elsewhere in the world but not widely used in the United States.

The main reason entire catalogs of Caterpillar clothing, bags, shoes, gloves and other accessories are widely distributed abroad but not at home, however,

trial clothing – generally heavy duty items such as boots, gloves and reinforced workwear – sells well in the domestic market because of the company’s association with rugged construction equipment, the brand evokes other attributes abroad.

“We’re known for our industrial products, our workwear, so that’s what you see in the U.S.,” Beaupre said. “In the U.S., we don’t have a lot of the lifestyle products.”

Among those lifestyle offerings are an entire line of denim jeans and a 200-piece luggage collection, along with 300 different footwear and 500 different apparel designs cycling through stores every six months.

The company licenses more than 60 manufacturers and their distributors to attach the Caterpillar name to products tailored for specific regions. Beaupre said license agreements mandate the same quality and safety standards Caterpillar demands of its own facilities and products.

There are more than 100 stand-alone Caterpillar-brand stores around the globe, with Caterpillar-branded products available in more than 100,000 locations in about 150 countries. Global retail sales of Caterpillar licensed products total about $2.25 billion every year.

STATE BRIEF

Tire removal in Illinois to target virus-carrying mosquitoes

CHICAGO – An Illinois agency will soon collect used tires from abandoned properties and rural roads in an effort to reduce the risk of illnesses carried by some mosquitoes.

The Chicago Tribune reported that the state Environmental Protection Agency will focus its efforts on the southernmost parts of the state, which are most vulnerable to mosquito-borne viruses such as West Nile and Zika.

State EPA spokeswoman Kim Biggs

said one tire can produce more than 10,000 adult mosquitoes in a breeding season.

The agency is still deciding where exactly it’ll collect tires, some of which are already being gathered by local agencies. Biggs said most of the

tires will be shredded and recycled or reused as fuel.

The effort will be paid for partially by a state fund that collects a $2.50 fee for each retail tire consumers purchase.

Block, Klukas, Manzella & Shell, P.C. 19 W. Jefferson St. • Joliet, Illinois 60435 • (815) 726-9999 www.blocklaw.com IMPORTANT CASES COME DOWN REGARDING AMA IMPAIRMENT RATINGS As you know, I have been expressing my displeasure with the imposition of AMA Impairment Ratings into the Illinois Workers’ Compensation system. For 99 years the system worked extremely well without them. The people behind these ratings are not the AMA, but rather doctors and executives whose interest is mostly with insurance companies and employers. Several years ago, people in other States who were using the ratings were using the 5th Edition of the AMA Impairment Ratings.

They placed extremely low numbers on medical conditions or injuries, but were being used by States such as Iowa and Indiana. Notwithstanding that the numbers were artificially low, and in fact the whole system was artificial, a Sixth Edition came out. The book admits within its covers that an impairment rating is not the same as a disability, which is what worker’s compensation claims are all about. Further, it states that it is “consensus” driven, meaning that there is no science whatsoever behind the ratings, but the people who wrote them pulled numbers out of their wherevers.

Iowa and Indiana refused to adopt the Sixth Edition, and those are quite red states, conservative and employer orientated.

Notwithstanding, our Legislature adopted the Sixth Edition, with the proviso that these ratings shall not be binding, but only a consideration.

Of course it didn’t take long, in a case called Continental Tire, for an

employer to claim that the Commission could not award any percentage of disability beyond what the rating was. The Appellate Court promptly rejected this argument, although noting that the Commission was required under the Law to at least consider the rating, which in that case was a Zero. Two more recent cases, called Cornbelt and Central Grocers, held that it was not necessary for either party to put in an AMA Rating if they thought it wasn’t worth doing so. As long as it is not actually required to prove disability, no sane Petitioner’s attorney would ever put in such a rating. For the Respondents, these ratings could cost $1,000.00 to $1,500.00 and really don’t give them much help regarding disability, as depositions are frequently required and the doctors have to admit there is no science behind these ratings. Also, the numbers are so artificially low, as in the 1 and 2% ratings I have recently seen on a twice operated and thrice operated knee with residuals, that they are being seen by the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission people for what they are: Pure Fiction. We are grateful to our Arbitrators and Commissioners for their awareness.

I think that we should also count our lucky stars that we have an highly intelligent Appellate Court that understands that the whole idea is to have an equitable system to give limited but fair benefits to workers’ who are injured.

Block, Klukas, Manzella & Shell, P.C. 19 W. Jefferson St. • Joliet, Illinois 60435 • (815) 726-9999 www.blocklaw.com Q. A.

Why can’t my lawyer tell me if we are going to win • The medical records are not available at the initial interview to review what the medical professionals have determined are the actual physical findings; (sometimes this is very different or how much I might get?

Many times during the initial interview, I get asked these very questions. When I tell the potential client that I have no way of knowing I usually get a look of disappointment mingled with either confusion or anger. But the truth is no lawyer can accurately tell you the answer and still be truthful at that point. There are just too many variables. IF the lawyer is willing to take on your case at the initial interview, she or he believes the potential to win is greater that to lose, but nothing more specific, and certainly no guarantees.

To assist in evaluation, the attorney has to focus on the issue of liability (who is most likely at fault for the accident), the damages/injuries, and if the claimed injuries are truly related to the accident (as opposed to prior conditions or conditions that only coincidently were noticed at or near the time of the accident). Some of the factors that make it virtually impossible to tell the final value of a case or the chances of settlement or favorable verdict that are not known at the initial interview can include: Some of the liability issues (necessary for evaluating the chances of settlement or verdict at trial) • No police report is available yet to review; (sometimes this gives the attorney insight into how the police viewed the cause of the accident, including driver error and weather conditions); • No witness statements are available (frequently witness accounts vary from each other and from the potential client accounts); • No photographs of the site of the accident, the physical damage to the vehicles, etc. (all of which help to evaluate the potential causes of the accident and the potential defenses that might exist); Some of the damages/injury issues: • The client was seen in the emergency department but has not yet begun treatment (no way to determine the final extent of injury as even the injury is not yet clearly defined; • The client is still treating and the actual extent of injury is still not clear;

SM-CL0369332

than the damages/pain described by the potential client) Some of the potential links between the accident and the injury: • Medical records to indicate if it is a new injury versus an aggravation of a pre-existing injury (for example, low back pain at a level with prior issues or lower back pain relating to a new, previously fine level of the lumbar spine) • Medical records (or even testimony) regarding the treatment as it relates to an injury (for example a back surgery following an accident may be still the result of a former issue or it may be triggered by the pain and/or physical damage caused in the accident) The above are just a few items that an attorney needs to evaluate a case. Others include the insurance company you are dealing with (some will always choose trial over settlement discussions), the individual adjuster, the costs of getting the testimony of the doctors, the potential need for experts, the place the accident occurred (different counties treat damages very differently) and what witnesses you may have (or not have). Most importantly, an attorney at the initial interview (and frankly, until the trial starts) does not know who the jury members will be. Those men and women are a completely unknown factor and even later in the process, they will be the “question mark” in any evaluation of the value of your case. The attorney is not trying to be coy when she or he says they cannot promise a certain outcome, they are just being honest. The more experienced the attorney, the better the evaluation and the closer to accurate this estimate will be, but once in front of the jury, it is the jury’ opinion, not your lawyer’s that determines the amount awarded. So be patient, hire an experienced attorney and listen when she or he tries to help you understand the potential value of your case. We really are there to help you!

DEAR READERS: Today’s topic is: GUARDIANSHIPS!!!

SCHOOL PLEASE READ!!!

“SCHOOL”

ADMINISTRATORS

Often times grandparents are called upon to take care of their grandchildren for extended periods of time. If the parent lives in a different school district than the grandparent, the grandparent’s school district will often request the grandparent to become the grandchild’s guardian.

This can be an expensive proposition because guardianships require a court action and a judge’s approval. I’m here to tell you as an elder law attorney and as a former member of a local school board that IN MANY INSTANCES A “SCHOOL” GUARDIANSHIP IS NOT NEEDED AND MAY BE ILLEGAL AS A CLASS C MISDEMEANOR!!!

Here’s an example: Mom, Grace, is a single parent; she lives in New Lenox; she has a new job which requires her to be at work before 6:00 a.m. and she doesn’t get home until almost 6:00 p.m.. She has no support network and does not have the money yet to have her 10 yearold daughter and 7 year-old son in before-and-after-school daycare.

Grace’s mom and dad, Ethel and George, live in rural Jackson Township in the Elwood Grade School District. It is decided that during the school year Grace’s kids will live with their grandparents, Ethel and George.

Under the “old way” the Elwood Grade School District would have required Ethel and George to become guardians of their grandchildren. Under the provisions of Article XI of the Probate Act of 1975 even if the parent gives consent to the guardianship the Court has to make a finding that the parent is “unfit” or is “unwilling or unable to carry out day-to-day child care decisions concerning the minor”.

Well, in our example Grace is “fit” and she is able to make day-to-day decisions concerning her children’s care. However, she is trying to get back on her feet financially and her kids will be living with their grandparents, Ethel and George, for an extended period of time. To say that she is unfit, etc.

SM-CL0369329

would be false and would probably be in violation of chapter 105 Illinois Compiled Statutes 5/10-20.12b.

This statute says persons who give false information to get their kids as non-tuition paying students into a school district are guilty of Class C Misdemeanor.

What does Grace do?

SOLUTION: Grace, Ethel and George can obtain and fill out an AFFIDAVIT FOR ENROLLMENT OF CHILD WHOSE PARENT/ LEGAL GUARDIANS RESIDE OUT OF DISTRICT. These forms were developed by the Probate Committee of the Will County Bar Association in cooperation with the Will County Legal Assistance Program and the Will County Regional Office of Education.

The Illinois School Code requires that a child be enrolled when the child “resides” in the school district.

In this case the residence of a person who has legal custody of a pupil is deemed to be the residence of the pupil. As set forth in chapter 105 Illinois Compiled Statutes 5/1020.12b, “legal custody” means: “custody exercised by an adult who demonstrates that he/she has assumed and exercises legal responsibility for the pupil and provides the pupil with a regular fixed night-time abode”.

If Grace’s, Ethel’s and George’s problem is similar to yours, ask your school district’s registrar to contact the Will County Regional Superintendent’s of Schools office at (815) 740-8360. Ask them to send or fax copies of this Affidavit to the school district office. You can also obtain copies at their office at 702 West Maple Street, New Lenox, Illinois.

If your local school district says that they have never heard of this “Affidavit” then clip this article and ask them to send it to the school district’s attorney.

Remember: A false Affidavit by a parent or grandparent is also a violation of the law, just as a school district may violate the law for not accepting the Affidavit.

As always: Call me, or my partner Jennifer Lynch, if you need a copy of this form or if you have a problem with your school district.

Change in Illinois law could help crime victims’ families

MURPHYSBORO – A change in Illinois law could help families fighting to learn the truth about the death of a loved one by strengthening the state’s Freedom of Information Act and

allowing more time to file wrongful-death lawsuits.

Gov. Bruce Rauner signed the legislation into law Tuesday during a visit to Murphysboro in southern Illinois.

“Today is an important day for Illinois families seeking justice,” Rauner said in a news release.

“This bill provides families a longer time frame to bring wrongful-death actions against perpetrators of intentional violent crimes and gives families access to the necessary public information to find closure in a loved

one’s death.”

The measure increases fines to $10,000 for public bodies that fail to comply with court orders to release records under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, and the statute of limitations on wrongful-death lawsuits increases from two years to five.

The measure has been dubbed “Molly’s Law” for Molly Young, a Carbondale woman who died in 2012 of a gunshot wound to the head in her boyfriend’s apartment. A special prosecutor could not determine whether the

death was an accident, suicide or homicide.

Her father, Larry Young, has fought to obtain police records in the case. In February, the Illinois Attorney General’s Office ordered the Illinois State Police to provide him with photos from its investigation of his daughter’s death.

$4.5M raised for Illinois governor’s mansion restoration

SPRINGFIELD – A private fundraising campaign to restore the

governor’s mansion in Springfield has received about $4.5 million toward its estimated goal of $15 million.

The goal is to complete the work at the historic Illinois Executive Mansion before Illinois statehood’s 200th anniversary in 2018.

Gov. Bruce Rauner and his wife, Diana Rauner, began the campaign last year, pledging that no taxpayer dollars will be spent to restore the 161-year-old home after decades of neglect.

DIANA M. STONITSCH

Diana M. Stonitsch (nee Jones), age 87. Peacefully, with her family by her side on Saturday, July 16, 2016.

Born Feb. 13, 1929, in Oak Park, she was a proud and longtime resident of Joliet, and one of its greatest advocates and ardent supporters.

Survived by her loving daughters, Laura (William) Conrad of Scottsdale, AZ, Mary (Russ) Augello of Park Ridge and Alice “Kiki” Schwartz of Chicago; she was “Nana” to three grandchildren, Sara (John) Masciandaro, Madeleine Schwartz and Matthew Augello; and two great-grandsons, Will and Henry Masciandaro.

Diana was an active member of St. Paul the Apostle Church, Joliet Junior Women’s Club, Visitation & Aid Society, St. Joseph Women’s Auxiliary, Joliet Area Community Television and other charitable/civic organizations, where she served in various leadership roles including past president. Diana took great pleasure in meeting and interviewing “Special People.” Faith, gratefulness, joyfulness and love were the hallmarks of Diana’s character.

Diana, in her earlier years, she absolutely loved to play golf not only with her husband, Gil, but with Lady Elks as well. Wednesdays at Al’s Steakhouse were not like any other day, as the “On the Spot” commentator for the Hansen Dress Shop of Manhattan her critique

and description was spot-on, witty and entertaining for the Fashion Shows held there. You knew Diana was in the room, at a glance, by the many stylish and unique hats that would adorn her most days.

The most notable attribute about Diana Stonitsch was her love for people, and the human connection she made the minute you met. It was as if you had been friends for years, not just a few minutes. The last thought Diana would want to leave you with is life is meant to be celebrated. She would want you to make the same human connection with those around you, as the love of the human spirit is fulfilling.

Her family would like to thank the special friends and medical professionals who have shared their care, support and prayers for her through the years.

Funeral services for Diana Stonitsch will be scheduled at a later date and will be held at St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church, where a Mass of Christian burial will be celebrated.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Police come under gunfire man said the government was at gun shop near Atlanta preparing a formal extradition

ATLANTA – A gunman inside a gun shop near Atlanta began shooting at police officers, who returned fire after responding to reports of a break-in at the business shortly before dawn Tuesday, Marietta police said.

No injuries were reported and four suspects have been apprehended at the Deercreek Gunshop in Marietta, northwest of Atlanta, Marietta police Officer Brittany Wallace told The Associated Press.

Officers responding to a report of a burglary noticed movement on top of and inside the building, and soon apprehended two suspects, Wallace said. A third suspect inside the business fired on the officers, and one of the lawmen returned fire, but no one was hit, police said. A fourth suspect came out of the business with his hands up, Wallace said.

Turkey fires thousands in coup plotters hunt

ISTANBUL – Asserting that “all the evidence” points to a U.S.-based Muslim cleric as the mastermind of last week’s failed coup, Turkey’s government on Tuesday fired tens of thousands of teachers, university deans and others accused of ties to the plot and demanded the cleric’s extradition.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan raised the issue in a phone call with U.S. President Barack Obama, and his spokes-

request for the cleric, Fethullah Gulen. But he also suggested that the U.S. government shouldn’t require the facts before extraditing him.

“A person of this kind can easily be extradited on grounds of suspicion,” said the spokesman, Ibrahim Kalin. “And there is very strong suspicion for his involvement, for Gulen’s involvement, in this coup attempt. So this is sufficient ground.”

Train attacker vowed ‘revenge on the infidels’

WUERZBURG, Germany – A 17-year-old Afghan asylum-seeker vowing “revenge on these infidels” went on an ax-and-knife rampage on a train in southern Germany, wounding five people before being shot and killed by police – an attack that German authorities conceded Tuesday was almost impossible to prevent.

German officials didn’t identify the attacker or the victims, but Hong Kong’s immigration department said among those wounded were four members of a family of five from the southern Chinese city.

The dpa news agency reported that the attacker wounded the 62-year-old father, the 58-year-old mother, their adult daughter and her boyfriend. The teenage son was not hurt. The father and the boyfriend had tried to defend the other family members, dpa said.

Trump triumphs as Republican nominee

By JULIE PACE

The Associated Press CLEVELAND – Cementing an extraordinary political takeover, Republicans nominated Donald Trump on Tuesday night as their presidential standard-bearer, hitching their hopes of keeping Democrat Hillary Clinton out of the White House on an unorthodox candidate who has sown divisions within the party and across the nation.

While it was Trump’s night, Clinton was frequently the focus.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie energized the crowd with a full-throated takedown of Clinton, imploring delegates to shout “Guilty!” as he ticked through numerous accusations of wrongdoing.

Trump addressed the convention briefly in videotaped remarks, thanking them for formally nominating him as the party’s White House candidate.

“This is a movement, but we have to go all the way,” he said.

For Trump, the celebrations were a much-needed opportunity to regroup after a chaotic convention kickoff that included a plagiarism charge involving wife Melania Trump’s address on opening night. There were no big missteps Tuesday, but the event was void of the glitzy, Hollywood touch Trump promised, with a series of Republican officials parading on stage to level sharp, but repetitive, criticisms of Clinton.

The evening’s program ended on an unusual note, with an actress-turned-avocado farmer delivering the closing speech – a spot normally reserved for prominent speakers.

Trump’s family again took center stage, underscoring the campaign’s urgent task to reshape the image of a candidate seen by large swaths of

Two of Trump’s children testified to his character, casting him as a man undeterred by challenges.

“For my father, impossible is just the starting point,” said Donald Trump Jr., the oldest of the Republican nominee’s five children.

For some Republicans, the night also offered a glimpse of what could have been. House Speaker Paul Ryan, who resisted calls to jump into the presidential race, made a vigorous call for party unity – although his message focused more on the risks of letting Democrats keep the White House and make gains in Congress than a rationale for Trump.

“Let’s compete in every part of America, and turn out at the polls like every last vote matters, because it will,” Ryan said.

Many Republican leaders stayed away from the convention, still wary of being associated with the divisive candidate and unsure how his nomination impacts their own political futures.

The crowd gathered in the cavernous convention hall reflected the growing dissatis-

faction among some Republicans with party elites. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who has been a lukewarm supporter of Trump, was greeted with a smattering of boos as he took the stage.

It was one of the occasional flurries of dissent on the convention floor, including jeers as states that Trump did not win recorded their votes during the nominating roll call vote. Still, Trump far outdistanced his primary rivals, and his vice presidential pick, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, was also formally nominated.

Trump was put over the top by his home state of New York. Four of his children joined the state’s delegation on the convention floor for the historic moment and appeared overwhelmed with emotion.

Tiffany Trump, the candidate’s 22-year-old daughter with ex-wife Marla Maples, sprinkled her remarks with rarely heard anecdotes about her father, including the handwritten notes he left on her childhood report cards.

“My dad is a natural born encourager, the last person to ever tell you to lower your sights,” she said.

22 NEWS ANALYSIS

Why do Republicans say sky is falling? Is it?

By BILL BARROW

The Associated Press The United States depicted at the Republican National Convention is a scary place. It is wrenched by economic uncertainty, social upheaval, political dysfunction, runaway immigration, violent streets and existential threats from abroad. Republicans want voters to see the need for drastic change. The nation’s only choice, they say, is Donald Trump.

Here is why Republicans would paint such a bleak portrait, and whether things really are as they say:

WHAT’S THE PROBLEM?

GOP Chairman Reince Priebus opened the convention acknowledging “troubling times.” Others used less-measured terms. Americans live in fear, they said. The country is disrespected by the world, its military is gutted, its police are shamed. Borders are porous. Terrorism is a constant threat.

Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions said the U.S. suffers from “an economic disaster ... and the American people know it.” Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst said that “our allies see us shrinking from our place as a leader in the world.”

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani pointed to “the terrorists who are killing us and our allies.” He concluded: “There is no next election. ... There’s no more time for us left to revive our great country.”

WHAT’S THE REALITY?

The United States has seen some tough times, but it is in better shape than most of the world.

Americans still are much less likely to become victims of domestic or international terrorism than most Europeans and citizens of Middle East nations. Violent crime in the United States has dropped steadily since 1992, according to FBI statistics.

In May, unemployment dipped to its lowest rate since November 2007, a year before Obama’s election.

The economy has grown for much of Obama’s tenure. But the middle class has taken a hit. Average household incomes are rising, but that’s largely because of higher pay for the richest 10 percent of American households.

Still, the United States is outperforming most of the world’s advanced economies. Last year, the U.S. economy grew 2.4 percent, compared with 0.5 percent in Japan, 2.2 percent in Britain and 1.7 percent in the 19 countries that share the euro currency.

China, which Trump often says has out-maneuvered the U.S. on economic

leadership as a failure. Accepting his nomination in 2008, Obama declared: “We are here because we love this country too much to let the next four years look just like the last eight.”

Ronald Reagan ousted Democrat Jimmy Carter in 1980 amid economic and international turmoil. Yet Reagan and Obama wove an intrinsic optimism into their arguments. Obama’s slogan was “Hope and Change.”

Reagan summoned biblical imagery to describe the United States as a “shining city on a hill.”

Trump’s pitch is perhaps most comparable to Richard Nixon’s law-and-order campaign in 1968, another turbulent year at home and abroad. Nixon told Republicans in his acceptance speech that “AmerAP photo ica is trouble today,” mired in war People move about the floor Tuesday before the start of the second day of the Republican “with no end in sight” and unable “to National Convention in Cleveland. manage its own economy.” Trump insists his motto – “Make America Great Again” – is optimistic. But matters, is growing faster than the the only candidate who fits the bill is the subtext is his indictment of a United States. But the U.S. is far rich- the brash, tough-talking billionaire nation that “never wins anymore.” er: Economic output per person last developer and TV reality star.

He suggests stability and greatness year was $56,000 in the U.S. and $7,900 will re-emerge because of his touch, THERE’S A HISTORY in China.

A party out of the White House for rather than something inherent in the American people.

HOW DO AMERICANS SEE IT? two terms tends to frame the current It’s a mixed answer. Although Obama’s job approval ratings have been positive for much of 2016, Americans are anxious. A recent Associated Press GfK-Poll found almost 4 out of 5 American voters believe the country is headed in the wrong direction. And there’s a seemingly never-ending cycle of bad news: a mass shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida; assassinations of police in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and Dallas; and high-profile killings of black men by police.

THE POLITICS

Tapping into Americans’ anxiety – and deepening it – may be a logical strategy for Trump to win over moderate Democratic and independent voters. He entered the convention trailing Clinton in most polls. His favorability ratings are extremely low, even worse than Clinton’s dismal numbers.

Conventions normally offer candidates an opportunity to introduce themselves to Americans who don’t follow politics very closely. Trump already is extremely well-known and will have a hard time changing voters’ opinions about him. However, no one can deny that Trump is the candidate of change. Clinton has been running as the candidate who will build on Obama’s legacy. If voters agree that things truly are awful and the country needs a dramatic change,

Right off the bat I should say that I think the so-called “stopgap budget” signed into law on June 30 was a good idea. Not fiscally, but because people who rely on state government desperately needed a break from the all-out legislative war between two ideologically entrenched parties.

Gov. Bruce Rauner absolutely refused to budge on negotiating a fully funded state spending plan until the Democrats agreed to some of his anti-union/pro-business agenda. Democrats wouldn’t move off their support for unions. So after more than 12 solid months of stalemate, the two camps finally agreed to a six-month budget for everything but elementary and secondary education funding, which got a full year’s worth of cash.

And even though social service providers and universities only got about half their previous levels of funding going back the last 12 months and forward through December, the stopgap budget money is probably enough to keep both systems from totally collapsing.

It was a reprieve, of sorts – just enough money to keep most of the “budget hostages” alive while the two warring parties retreated back to their corners to fight the upcoming fall campaign.

The stopgap also prevented state government from grinding to a complete halt. Prisons, for instance, couldn’t pay suppliers for everything from water to electricity to food because they haven’t had any official appropriations since the previous June. Without a court order, agencies can’t spend money if they don’t have a legislative appropriation signed by the governor.

Fiscally, however, the stopgap is a monster.

Comptroller Leslie Munger, who pays the state’s bills, told reporters last week that come late December, the state still will be paying off invoices from June and it’ll have a total bill payment backlog of $10 billion.

The very same day, the respected and bipartisan Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability projected the stopgap deal has an $8 billion deficit.

You may recall that House Speaker Michael Madigan jammed his own spending plan through his chamber in late May, but several rank-and-file Senate Democrats subsequently revolted and stopped that bill dead in its tracks.

Ever since then, Rauner has been busily traveling the state taking credit for killing Madigan’s bill, always claiming it was disastrously out of balance by about $7 billion.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Wednesday, July 20, 2016

The fairy tales coming out of Springfield VIEWS Rich Miller sults. He really burned that message in, and for good reason. His political operation claims their polling shows a vote for that $7 billion deficit is darned near political death.

But … wait. Isn’t an almost $8 billion deficit in a budget he signed larger than a $7 billion deficit in a bill he claimed to stop?

Why, yes, it is.

But don’t tell that to the governor.

“We could be way, way worse off if the super majority’s budget bill had passed,” Rauner said, speaking of Madigan’s proposal. “We’d be spending at an even higher level than we are today.”

Um, huh?

Nevermind, because it probably won’t matter anyway when it comes to the campaign.

The Republicans are all about pinning that $7 billion deficit tag on the House Democrats. And the House Democrats are gearing up to whack Republicans for proposing a stopgap budget plan in late May that provided far less funding for K-12, higher education, social services and health care than was eventually approved by both chambers in late June.

Yep, you read that right. Unless somebody changes their mind, we’re about to witness a big, nasty campaign fight over two bills that never became law. Heck, the Republican stopgap proposal never even got a committee hearing, let alone a vote.

The Republicans will slam the Democrats for attempting to force a budget through that would’ve created such a huge deficit that the personal income tax rate would’ve risen to “more than 5.5 percent,” as a Rauner administration memo claimed last week (issued, by the way, the same day the $8 billion deficit projection was released). The tax rate is now 3.75 percent, after partially rolling back in January of last year from a high of 5 percent.

And the Democrats will slam the Republicans for trying to “slash” every politically popular spending program under the sun.

Why won’t the two sides blast each other for putting us in the hole by $8 billion?

Because they actually passed that bill and Rauner signed it into law. Whacking each other for a bill that passed with huge bipartisan majorities just wouldn’t be cricket.

And so we’ll get fairy tales.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR State should strengthen commitment to community-based services

most vulnerable residents, but starting pay for a DSP in Illinois is only $9.35 per hour. With such low entry-level pay, it is extremely difficult to attract staff – especially when there is no guarantee of an occasional raise. While a DSP’s work is extremely rewarding, it is not easy. Faced with the challenge of supporting a very difficult population with complex needs on stagnant wages, it is no wonder current or potential employees seek better-paying jobs in fast food, warehousing or retail.

In these challenging times, the state needs to strengthen its commitment to quality community-based services. It is time to finally invest in direct care workers and commit to providing them with a competitive wage. The General Assembly recently passed HB 5931 – a DSP Living Wage Bill, which will begin to address this crisis, and we urge Gov. Bruce Rauner to sign the bill. It is the right thing to do.

To the Editor: There is a workforce crisis in the social service field and it requires cooperation in Springfield to solve it. Years of funding neglect for community-based services for citizens with developmental disabilities have led to this ever-deepening crisis. Reimbursement rates for services have not increased since July 2007, leaving providers in an economic quandary as they attempt to keep up with rising costs year after year. Simply keeping the lights on consumes a growing share of revenue.

This has created a major staffing problem. As the job market recovers, agencies are faced with increasing staff turnover and burnout, obviously affecting the quality of services. And fewer staff means escalating overtime expenses, as agencies need to fill shifts with available staff. This just makes it more difficult to meet expenses.

Jesus Luna followed in his father’s footsteps when he started boxing at the age of 12. Luna finished in the top eight in the Junior Olympics National Championships in Dallas.

TASTE OF THE BIG TIME

Jesus Luna becomes first Luna Boxing fighter to compete on national stage

“My dad (head coach Jesse Luna) JOLIET – You never would know and my uncle (gym owner Miguel it if you see him now, but 16-year-old Luna) fixed this place up so we would Jesus Luna said he had a weight issue have a gym. My dad used to box when a few years ago. he was younger. I started at age 12, “I was kind of big when I was 12 and which is kind of late to start.” the main reason I started doing this He has caught up, however. was to lose weight,” he said last week Luna competed a few weeks ago during a break in a training session at in the USA Boxing Prep and Junior the Luna Boxing facility at the corner Olympic National Championships and dgoss@shawmedia.com

Youth Open in Dallas. The Youth Open component was added to the tournament a year ago.

Luna was in the Youth Open 123-pound division, facing top fighters from around the nation. He received a bye in the opening round, then beat Zachary Bram of West Palm Beach, Florida, before losing to Keyshawn Davis of Norfolk, Virginia, in the quarterfinals.

So from his first national competi-

tion, Luna can tack a top-eight finish onto his résumé.

“Finishing in the top eight in the Junior Olympics, I felt that was a good accomplishment,” he said. “To be able to be noticed at the national level matters.

“Eighth is not much, but the only real downside is that I have to keep moving toward the top, and I still have a ways to go.”

RAPID RISE

OUTSIDE THE RING

As focused as Luna is on what happens inside the ring, he is equally dedicated to everything else that matters in his life.

“I make sure school is as important as boxing,” he said. “I am an A-B student. If I don’t do my homework, I can’t come to the gym, and I want to be here. I come here four times a week during school and pretty much the same in the summer, but sometimes

BELOW RIGHT: Luna works on his form in the ring Thursday during practice at the Luna Boxing gym in Joliet. the opportunity is there to come in earlier in the summer.”

Luna said he has “very diverse friends. I’ve had plenty of friends come try this out and think it’s great. Some come here and think it’s too hard and quit.”

At the gym, it is evident who the leaders, the role models for the younger kids, are.

“My brother and I and another kid, Adan Rojan, we were here when this all started, so we’re naturally picked out as the leaders,” Luna said. “We take the initiative to show the younger kids what has to be done.”

A big plus for all the 20 or so regulars at the gym is cost.

“We know we can compete at a high level, which is good,” Jesse Luna said.

“But we more do this because the kids love it. They pay $10 a month to come here. That’s all.”

Luna Boxing conducted a 22bout show at the Joliet Park District Multi-Purpose Center at Inwood in February that drew about 500 spectators and another show last weekend in Summit. The name is out there.

COLLEGE THOUGHTS

As for Jesus Luna, as much as he wants to further his boxing career, he also has college plans in his future.

“There are multiple things I want to go to school for,” he said. “Even if I go on and get a master’s, I want to keep working out at a gym. I always find a way to work out regardless. Even if I

have an injury, there usually is still plenty I can do.”

With an eye toward college, Jesse Luna said, “We are just finding out there are colleges with boxing programs that are governed by USA Boxing. That’s something we will want to look into.”

Athletes sometimes are described as being the total package. Jesus Luna qualifies. In addition to his success in the classroom and the boxing ring, he is polite and humble.

“I want to thank all my coaches for what they have done for me,” he said.

“Jesus worked out in Phoenix with Robert Miller,” Jesse Luna said.

“Thomas Moreno and I have coached him here, and Joe Valerio and Miguel Luna also coach here. Jesus spars with Chico Arambula and Ernesto “Bear” Flores.

“Bear Flores beat my son in Chicago and they became friends. He moved

to Colorado and asked my son to come out there and work out with him. He was there three weeks.”

Jesus Luna already has seen fruits from his labor. Down the road, who knows?

“Right now, I would like to be in the Olympics or at the pro level when I’m in my 20s,” he said. “Before I thought of this sport as a way to defend myself.

Now I see the potential in training and fighting.”

That goal to lose weight a few years ago was a mere beginning to what is growing into a significant story.

• Wednesday, July 20, 2016

Jesse Luna cited the strides his son already has made.

“He’s 16 years old, only three years fighting and he finished among the top eight in the nation from a 26-boxer tournament,” he said. “Last year he won state and was runner-up in the Midwest Region. This was his first national tournament.

“When we first opened this gym, we didn’t think we would get as far as we have been getting. We never thought we would have our first national competition three years later. Our gym has produced a number of championships in a short amount of time, but this was our first fighter to reach that level. Without a doubt, Jesus can become a national-level fighter.”

Luna is an A-B student in high school. He attended Lincoln-Way Central his first two years and will be a junior at Lincoln-Way West in the fall.

He lives in Manhattan, and with the closure of Lincoln-Way North, Manhattan kids are among those switching schools in the district.

Luna’s older brother Jose, a senior at Lincoln-Way West, also trains at the gym. He was a Chicago Golden Gloves runner-up last year. Eric Rodriguez was a Chicago Golden Gloves champion representing the gym in 2014.

“When I was a little younger, I played baseball,” Jesus Luna said. “I did it for a year or two, but I didn’t like it that much.

“The more I box, the more I love it.

It’s part of my lifestyle. It gives me the drive to accomplish something.”

Luna’s dad said his son’s overall record is 25-8, so he doesn’t win them all. But Jesus takes something from every fight.

“Definitely, every fight is a learning experience,” he said. “You learn from winning, but when you lose, that’s the most important thing for learning. The day you stop learning, you might as well be out of the sport.”

The preparation for any tournament is something Luna does not take lightly.

“Every time a specific tournament is coming up, I lay my eyes on it and ask myself, ‘What can I work on today to get ready?’ ” he said. “When the day comes, I’ve already put in all the work.”

26 GOLF: PHIL KOSIN IILINOIS WOMEN’S OPEN

Ferrell, Miller take 3-stroke lead into final round

By CURT HERRON

cherron@shawmedia.com ROMEOVILLE – A golfer should always be pleased to share the lead over the first two days of a three-day tournament, as Brooke Ferrell has done thus far at the 22nd annual Phil Kosin Illinois Women’s Open at Mistwood Golf Club.

But Ferrell, who will be a senior at the University of Wisconsin at Madison this season, also knows all too well that a lot of quality competitors have their sights set on preventing her from being at the top of the leader board after Wednesday’s final round.

The native of Edgerton, Wisconsin, who was the event’s runner-up a year ago, fired a 2-under 70 on Tuesday to go with her opening-round 68, giving her a 138 total, which ties her with Elgin’s Stephanie Miller, who turned in a 69 for the second day in a row.

Ferrell recorded six birdies during the middle round, but also had four bogeys. Meanwhile, Miller, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign senior who tied for 12th a year ago, only had three birdies but carries a string of 27-straight non-bogey holes into Wednesday.

“You never really want to set unrealistic expectations or put too much pressure on yourself, so I’m really happy to be leading going into the last day,” Ferrell said. “Six-under is a good score, but I wish that I could have played better today, since I feel like I left some out there.

“Once you get on the greens, if you’re not in the right spot, it can get pretty tricky. So it’s really important to place your approach shots well and these greens are rolling fast enough that if you aren’t focused on every shot, you can make a mistake pretty quickly. So just being focused and into what you’re doing is really important out here.

“I started working with Dennis Tiziani, who’s Steve Stricker’s hitting coach, about a year and a half ago.

He has tweaked my swing a decent amount. It’s coming along really well and he’s changed my putting stroke and my grip and that’s worked out really well, too. The progress that I’ve made in such a short amount of time is really encouraging and to see what I can do in the next few years is also really exciting to me.”

The pair own a three-stroke lead over the two other individuals who posted below-par rounds on the first two days, Crystal Lake’s Lexi Harkins, who tied for seventh place last year, and Chesterton, Indiana’s Kelly Grassel.

Harkins, who plays at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and Grassel, who competes at the University of Florida, both turned in rounds of 70 on Tuesday to go with scores of 71 on the initial day to give them three-under totals of 141.

“The two days have gone pretty well,” Harkins said. “I just feel like I’m rolling it really well on the greens so I feel really confident and I think that’s really important when you’re playing.

“I think that this course is really well-kept, the conditions are always great for us and I really like the set-up, I think that it’s great. It’s great competition and I always love this tournament. I think tomorrow will be just a matter of staying confident and playing my own game.”

The best score posted on Tuesday was a 68 by Evanston’s Hannah Kim. The Northwestern University athlete shot a two-over 74 on Monday and is two-under at 142 after two days.

There’s a three-way tie for sixth place among the other players who are under par through the first two days.

Naperville’s Bing Singhsumalee, who took fourth last year, joined Galesburg’s Taylor Thompson and Sterling’s Ember Schuldt with two-day totals of 143.

Thompson, who plays at Saint Xavier, shot a 71 on Tuesday after firing a 72 the day before while current

Illini Singhsumalee and former Illini Schuldt both shot a 72 after posting a 71.

Wheaton’s Jenna Pearson, a twotime champion in the event, wound up shooting a 74 on Tuesday to give her a one-over 145, which was good for ninth place.

Alexis Biedrzycki, a Lincoln-Way West graduate who will play at Michigan State University, and Bolingbrook’s Jessica Yuen, who went to Neuqua Valley and will play at the University of Missouri, both made the cut of 30-plus ties after finishing with two-round totals of 156.

MINERS 9, SLAMMERS 2

BLUE WEDNESDAY

• Wednesday, July 20, 2016

JOLIET – The Frontier League three-game series between the two division leaders, the Southern Illinois Miners and Joliet Slammers, had all the earmarks of a classic.

It still could turn out that way, but the series got off on the wrong foot for the Slammers, who dropped a 9-2 decision before of 2,339 Tuesday night at Silver Cross Field.

The Slammers (30-25) entered the game ranked first in the league in runs scored with 300, while the Miners (3817) were second at 298. Southern Illinois was hitting .277 to the Slammers’ .273 and had a league-best .985 fielding percentage to Joliet’s .982.

Both teams swung the bats well early, but the problem for the Slammers was a lack of clutch hits. They had eight singles off Miners lefthander Rick Teasley but only one run through four innings, that coming on Casey Fletcher’s two-out single in the fourth after singles by Joe Staley and Melvin Rodriguez.

Fletcher’s hit brought Joliet within 4-1, but the Miners put up two runs in the top of the fifth to extend the lead to 6-1 and knock out Slammers starter Shane Bryant (2-2). Bryant walked batters who scored in the second and fifth innings, and the Joliet bullpen walked batters who scored in the seventh and eighth innings.

“One thing on the pitching side that is concerning to me is we have walked 254 men, and we’re the only team in the league that has walked as many as 200,” Slammers manager Jeff Isom said before the game. “We have to do a better job on the pitching side.”

After a 9-9 start to the season, Southern Illinois came to town 28-8 in its past 36 games. Former Joliet JackHammers coach Mike Pinto has managed the Miners the past 10 years, and his teams have finished above .500 every one of those years. They have been in the playoffs six times and were league champs in 2012.

“We want to win every series,” Isom said. “If we do win this one, it will be a good feat. We have to keep winning series to get in the playoffs.”

Alfredo Rodriguez doubled in the fifth inning for the Slammers’ first and only extra-base hit. He also singled earlier. However, his double was Joliet’s final hit. The Slammers added their second run in the ninth on three walks and Phil Bates’ long sacrifice fly to left.

ON THE FARM

An update on former Slammers now in the affiliated ball: Right fielder Boo Vazquez was among the key components in the

Slammers’ lineup before he was signed by the Kansas City Royals a few weeks ago. He is at Burlington in the Appalachian Rookie League and is hitting .286 (16 for 56) with three doubles, two triples, one homer and 12 RBIs. Former St. Francis right-hander Adam Panayotovich pitched briefly with the Slammers last season and now is with Great Falls, the White Sox affiliate in the Pioneer Rookie League. He is 2-4 with a 3.86 ERA. In 35 innings, he has allowed 42 hits but only two walks while striking out 25.

Right-hander David Kubiak has pitched in three games and allowed three hits and one earned run in 61/3 innings for Trenton, the Yankees’ Double-A affiliate.

Right-hander Jake Sanchez is 5-4 with a 2.58 ERA in 30 appearances for Double-A Midland in the Oakland organization. In 451/3 innings, he has yielded 36 hits and 14 walks while striking out 45.

Infielder Grant DeBruin is hitting .385 in his past 10 games and .265 overall for Single A Hagerstown, the

Nationals’ team in the South Atlantic League.

28 PHIL LAWLER SUMMER STATE BASEBALL TOURNAMENT: PLAINFIELD SOUTH 2, ST. CHARLES NORTH 1

Ricko helps Plainfield South reach semifinals

By DRAKE SKLEBA

Shaw Media correspondent LISLE – Last Thursday, Plainfield South junior right-hander Trey Ricko fired six shutout innings in the Cougars’ Lockport regional championship victory over rival Plainfield Central.

Ricko tired in the seventh and Austin Marozas nailed down the save in a 7-5 victory.

In the Cougars’ Phil Lawler Summer State Tournament game against St. Charles North (15-2), Ricko reversed roles and became the closer in a 2-1 win.

After Monday’s Plainfield South hero, Konnor Ash, gave everything he had in a six-inning, 122-pitch outing, the Cougars took their 2-1 lead into the bottom of the seventh. Senior right-hander Jordan Mikel replaced Ash to start the half inning. He walked St. Anthony Dellesi on a close 3-2 pitch. Visibly shaken, Mikel walked Brenden Norberg, and the North Stars were in business.

South coach Phil Bodine summoned Ricko. He dispatched of the first two batters he faced on a flyout to Cougars left fielder Antonio Guitierrez and a forceout at third. Ricko then walked Jason Shanner to load the bases.

St.Charles North’s Justin Dunne, who had two of the five North Star hits off Ash, took the count full against Ricko.

“After Dunne battled me to a 3-2 count, I knew I had to throw him a

Plainfield South’s Justin McGuigan bunts against Lyons Township on Monday at the Summer State Tournament at Naperville Central High School. The Cougars won, 3-2. strike right down the middle,” Ricko said. “I knew my defense would make the play and end the game.”

Indeed. Dunne hammered a shot off third baseman Trey Stewart, who pounced on the ball and fired a strike to first. The Cougars were in the final four, where they will face Naperville Central at 5 p.m. Wednesday at Boomers Stadium in Schaumburg.

“I knew I had to get the first two hit-

ters that I faced in the inning,” Ricko added. “I pounded the strike zone and was able to succeed.”

Ash allowed one unearned run and five hits in six innings with nine strikeouts. He walked only one.

“I threw a lot of strikes today,” Ash said. “We didn’t play really well and yet we still came away with the win.

It shows how talented we are and I am really happy to be in the final four. I

am very confident we can take home the state championship.”

South (15-3) jumped ahead in the top of the second. With two outs, Guitierrez singled and scored on Mikel’s double.

In the top of the third with one out, the Cougars extended their lead to 2-0. Cody Phillips, Nick Mayerhofer (2 for 3, with a stolen base) and sophomore Justin McGuigan all singled to load the bases.

With two outs, Ash was plunked, forcing in Phillips.

In the bottom of the third, St. Charles North picked up its run when Ash hit North Star right fielder Sean Kreuger with the bases loaded.

In the top of the seventh, McGuigan picked up his second hit, his fourth bunt single of the tournament. The sophomore catcher had a solid game behind the plate as well.

“Konnor (Ash) didn’t get much help from our defense but kept us in the game,” McGuigan said. “He battled and then Trey (Ricko) came in and closed the win out by pounding the strike zone.

I’m seeing the ball very well and the whole team is so talented. I believe we can win state.”

Ricko or Mikel will get the ball for the Cougars against Naperville Central (1411). The second semifinal will feature Huntley (18-6-1) versus Brother Rice (146-1) at 7:30. The winners will square off at 7 p.m. Thursday for the title.

The semifinals and title game can be seen live on The Cube.

METS 2, CUBS 1

Familia escapes bases-loaded jam in 9th, Mets beat Cubs

By MATT CARLSON The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Jeurys Familia escaped a bases-loaded jam with a game-ending double play after Rene Rivera drove in the tiebreaking run with two outs in the top of the ninth, lifting the New York Mets over the Cubs, 2-1, on Tuesday night.

Familia walked Addison Russell and Miguel Montero to start the ninth, then Javier Baez reached on a bunt single when third baseman Jose Reyes threw wide to first. Pinch-hitter Matt Szczur hit a grounder to first baseman James Loney, and Loney threw out Russell at the plate. Kris Bryant then hit into a 5-4-3 double play to give Familia his 33rd save in 33 chances.

Rivera had the third single in the ninth – following hits by Loney and Asdrubal Cabrera – off Hector Rondon

(1-2) as the Mets beat the Cubs for the fifth time in six games after sweeping them in last year’s NL Championship Series.

Hansel Robles (4-3) pitched two scoreless innings in relief for the win.

All-Star right-handers Jake Arrieta of the Cubs and Noah Syndergaard of the Mets returned to dominant form in no decisions.

Arrieta retired 14 of the first 15 Mets hitters, including 12 straight following Yoenis Cespedes’ single in the first. He allowed one run and struck out eight in seven innings, his longest outing since June 11. Last year’s NL Cy Young Award winner got back on track after allowing four or more earned runs in three consecutive starts for the first time since 2012.

Syndergaard gave up one unearned run on seven hits through 52/3 innings.

He struck out eight before being re-

placed by Jerry Blevins after throwing 105 pitches.

Syndergaard had his velocity early, reaching 100 mph in the first inning, and was able to escape jams in the first and second. He left in the fifth inning of his previous start, on July 8, with arm fatigue after allowing three runs in a loss to Washington.

New York’s Michael Conforto made his first start, in right field, since being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Sunday and went 0 for 3. He had pinch-hit on Monday and singled.

Arrieta doubled with two out in the fourth, then was thrown out at the plate when he tried to score on Tommy La Stella’s single. At first, Arrieta was ruled safe by umpire Eric Cooper, but he was called out after a video review.

Right angle: Both Collins and Cubs manager Joe Maddon loaded their starting lineups with lefties against

two of the major’s premier right-handed starters.

Maddon called out the split against Syndergaard as “enormously different.” Righties entered hitting .210 against him, lefties were batting .282.

Against Arrieta, righties were hitting .182, lefties were at .215.

Trainers room: Mets: The team said RHP Matt Harvey was resting comfortably after having season-ending surgery for thoracic outlet surgery in St. Louis on Monday.

Cubs: All-Star 2B Ben Zobrist batted fourth after getting two days off. ...

OFs Dexter Fowler (right hamstring strain) and Jorge Soler (left hamstring strain) had the start of their rehab stints at Triple-A pushed back a day when the Iowa Cubs were rained out. Maddon said both were close to returning, but he “didn’t know exactly.”

GOLF: ON THE FRINGE

By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press

Phil Mickelson of the U.S. watches his shot from the 15th fairway Sunday during the final round of the British Open Golf Championship at the Royal Troon Golf Club in Troon, Scotland.

Mickelson posted the lowest score in any major, only for someone else to go lower. That was David Toms at Atlanta Athletic Club, who holed a 10-foot par putt on the final hole to beat Mickelson by one. And it was Stenson at Royal Troon, making 10 birdies in a round of 63 that even Johnny Miller admired.

“I’m not sure how I’m going to feel about that,” Mickelson said.

“I played what I feel was well enough to win this championship by a number of strokes, and yet I got beat by three strokes. You know, it’s not like I have decades left of opportunities to win majors, so each one means a lot to me.

“I put in my best performance today. Played close to flawless golf and was beat,” he said. “So it kind of goes both ways. I’m happy with the way I played, but even more disappointed that it wasn’t enough because you look back and say, ‘What do I need to do?’”

By now he should know the answer, because it has happened a lot.

Sure, Mickelson erred by trying to hit a 3-iron around a tree at Winged Foot and making double bogey on the 18th hole in the 2006 U.S. Open. The soft bogeys he made on the 13th and 15th holes at Merion cost him a shot at the 2013 U.S. Open. One can find other mistakes, but with the exception of Royal Troon, even the winner doesn’t hit all the right shots.

What’s impressive about Mickelson is that seven of his 11 runner-up finishes in the majors

were by two shots or fewer.

Nicklaus was a runner-up 19 times, but it’s not simple math to suggest he could have won 37 majors. In six of those, he finished three shots or more behind. The only time Mickelson was never a serious factor in the closing holes was when Jordan Spieth won by four shots at the Masters last year.

Toms and Payne Stewart made par putts on him at the last hole.

Mickelson made double bogey from the bunker on the 17th at Shinnecock Hills. A bogey on the 16th hole cost him at Valhalla when Rory McIlroy won by one shot, and a bogey on the 17th hole at Bethpage Black left Mickelson one shot behind in the 2009 U.S. Open.

Should he have won more majors? Anyone, Woods included, can say that.

To be in this conversation, and to have more runner-up finishes in the majors except for Nicklaus, means something is going right at least most of the time. Mickelson has posted scores of 266, 267 and 269 in majors and lost them all.

That might be really tough to take if not for the five majors he has won. Mickelson doesn’t see his window closing all that quickly.

He wouldn’t want Nicklaus’ other record, but it sure would be nice to be in a position to try. That means he has a chance at winning, and everyone should want that.

TROON, Scotland – Tiger Woods isn’t the only player chasing Jack Nicklaus in the majors.

So is Phil Mickelson.

Only one of them has been making progress over the last four years. That isn’t necessarily good news for Mickelson, but it should be.

Mickelson did everything right in the British Open, only to watch Henrik Stenson do just a little better.

They combined to deliver the greatest closing rounds by a final pairing in major championship history – 63 for Stenson, 65 for Mickelson, on a day when the average score was 72.8. They had a better-ball score of 59. They walked off the 18th green at Royal Troon with their arms around each other’s shoulders, and given the intensity of the battle, they might have been keeping each other from collapsing.

Stenson, the champion golfer of the year, received the silver claret jug.

Mickelson not only received a silver platter, he also took over sole possession of second place on golf’s all-time list of runner-up finishes in the majors.

He’s No. 2 at being No. 2.

The runner-up finish at Royal Troon was the 11th for Mickelson, one more than Arnold Palmer and still eight to go to catch Nicklaus.

No one talks much about that record because Nicklaus is identified more with his 18 majors.

Woods reached 14 majors in 2008 and was ahead of the pace set by Nicklaus until a fourth knee surgery, three back surgeries and one fire hydrant got in the way.

Eight years later, Woods remains at 14 and hasn’t played in nearly a year.

Mickelson, who won his fifth major in the British Open at Muirfield three years ago, now has recorded a runner-up finish each of the last four years. Not even Nicklaus put together a streak of four straight years with the silver.

This is not meant to cheer up Mickelson. He is 46, in his 25th year as a pro. He has been around long enough that losing stings, and it doesn’t always matter if it’s self-inflicted. Is it easier to stomach knowing he played bogey-free than if he couldn’t hit a par 3 with a pitching wedge?

It was the second time that

Lefty chasing the other Nicklaus mark

MLB

NATIONAL LEAGUE

OLBs a deep, intriguing group

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com Two of the biggest names on the Bears are featured at this position, their top draft pick, Leonard Floyd, and last year’s big-ticket free-agent acquisition, Pernell McPhee. Those two players weren’t in the top two on the team for sacks last season – that’s Lamarr Houston and Willie Young, who both return in their second season in the 3-4 defense. Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio has options here, which adds to the intrigue off the edge.

Three things to watch at outside linebacker in training camp: Floyd’s welcome to the NFL: If receiver Kevin White is the player most observers are itching to see in Bourbonnais, Floyd has to be No. 2. This year’s No. 9 overall pick, one the Bears traded up to make, has the length, speed and athleticism to potentially be a great pass rusher.

He also comes to the NFL with lots of questions about his weight and ability to take on blockers and play the run. When the pads go on July 30,

Training camp

This is the seventh of our position-by-position series previewing what to watch in Bears training camp. Players report July 27 in Bourbonnais. the attention will shift to Floyd, who will get in his first NFL licks.

How long will it take Floyd to adjust to NFL offensive tackles? How will Fangio use – or, unleash – Floyd in different defensive sets? Training camp is an important time for Floyd to show the coaches (and general manager Ryan Pace) he was the right pick, and that he can be an impact player from the start.

McPhee’s knee: We didn’t see last year’s best defensive player during the spring. McPhee was absent from all OTAs and minicamp after offseason arthroscopic surgery on his knee, an injury that limited him in the second half of last season. He could be a candidate to start camp on the physically-unable-to-perform list.

McPhee is the type of athlete who won’t need a ton of reps to be ready to go, as seen last season when he played in games without much practice during the week, but without a full offseason, the earlier he can get on the turf and test out the knee full-speed and start hitting people, the better for the Bears and their defense.

Filling out the roster: Certainly a story line we’ll watch in the summer will involve how Young and Houston continue to ascend in Fangio’s defense this summer. The two combined for 14.5 sacks last season and with a fully healthy offseason, can really add to the depth at the position.

Camp is about roster spots, however, and special-teamers Sam Acho, Lamin Barrow and converted inside linebacker Christian Jones are known names to Bears fans and who will be competing to make the roster. Add in 6-foot-7 undrafted rookie Roy Robertson-Harris, and there’ll be room for one, maybe two, of those players to find a way on to the 53-man roster via special teams while adding more depth to the outside linebacker spot.

By Denise Freese Nothing says ‘summer’ like riding around in a convertible with the top down. It gives a feeling of freedom and excitement you’ll never forget!

Bettenhausen Automotive has a luxurious new offering to get you revved up for some seriously fun driving this summer.

The Fiat 124 Spider was originally created in 1966 as 2+2 roadster, and was considered one of the most beautiful roadsters ever built. The model lasted a long time, until 1982. In 2015, Fiat announced a resurrection of the 124 Spider beginning in 2016, and the updated version uses several styling touches reminiscent of the original model. The hexagonal upper grille, turn signals mounted below the headlamps toward the bumper’s edges, and general Italian style all bring back shades of the past.

The new Spider is nothing but modern, however. With a class-exclusive 160hp turbo engine

available, a nearly 50/50 weight distribution, four-wheel independent suspension, and electric power steering, control and handling are superb.

Catch up on the Will County news with our Morning Update newsletter

The Fiat 124 Spider offers available safety features such as adaptive front headlamps, Blindspot Monitoring, Rear Cross Path Detection, and a ParkView rear backup camera. The vehicle’s highstrength body helps dissipate energy, while protecting occupants at an optimum level. All Spider models have a total of four airbags for the driver and passenger, along with three-point seatbelts.

The available infotainment system option consists of a 7-inch touchscreen display, AM/FM radio, HD radio, MP3 player, an auxiliary input, six speakers, two USB ports, multimedia control, Bluetooth, a rear camera, and 3D navigation. The system also provides voice recognition allowing drivers to operate their mobile phone, music, and navigation system hands-free.

his flavored ice cream captures all the best parts of an ice cream soda: It’s creamy and not overly sweet, with a subtle root beer flavor.

Soda pop is said to have been invented in Philadelphia in 1807, followed by the ice cream soda in 1874, and pharmacist Charles Elmer Hires created the first commercially produced root beer for the Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition in 1876, proving that the City of Brotherly Love seems to have an affinity for fizzy drinks.

Root Beer Float Ice Cream 12 servings (makes 1½ quarts)

Four 12-ounce bottles of root beer (48 ounces total; do not use diet root beer) 1 cup whole milk 2 cups heavy cream 2 tablespoons sugar 3 large egg yolks 2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste

Philadelphia claims to be the birthplace of soda pop and ice cream sodas; consider a DIY soda bar.

Whatever your politics, it’s time for a party

By KRISTEN HARTKE The Washington Post

W

ith the Republic National Convention taking place through July 21 in Cleveland and the Democratic National Convention July 25-28 in Philadelphia, there’s no shortage of flavor to choose from. Pierogis to pretzels, we’re game.

Cleveland, which boasts a large Polish population, is where you’ll find a hefty sandwich of griddled kielbasa sausage on a hoagie roll, topped with coleslaw and french fries. It’s called the Polish Boy, and it’s often served with barbecue sauce. Clevelander and “The Chew” co-host Michael Symon prefers to use ShaSha Sauce, a mustardy banana pepper relish from a longtime family recipe named for his mother-in-law.

Philadelphians love their liquid refreshments, as soda pop, ice cream soda and the first commercially sold root beer – Hires – are all purported to have originated there.

Any Philly-themed party naturally cries out for a DIY soda bar, at the very least.

Fish fries are an important part of the Cleveland food landscape, chef and Cleveland local Matt Fish said. “We’ve got a huge Catholic population,” he said. “I can remember going with my grandparents to a fish fry every Friday night.”

As the owner of Melt Bar & Grilled, a chain of seven

restaurants with a focus on grilled cheese, Fish wanted to re-create the fried fish sandwiches he loved as a kid, featuring Great Lakes catches such as walleye and perch.

He came up with the Lake Erie Monster, a mash-up of grilled cheese and batter-fried fillets slathered with a jalapeño-spiked tartar sauce.

“I wanted to step it up a notch,” Fish said. “It really resonates with Clevelanders.”

For Philadelphia native Coleen Hill, a food blogger and graphic designer who will be volunteering at the Dems’ convention, her city’s cuisine has its own stories to tell.

Consider the ubiquitous Philly cheesesteak sandwich: “To me, it represents Philly’s attitude,” she says. “It’s not a healthy food, and we don’t care.”

But ask her what food is distinctively Philadelphia, and Hill will immediately point to the tomato pie, puffy and pizzalike, that routinely turns up at parties because it’s served at room temperature and can be made in advance.

“Philadelphia Tomato Pie is special, because it’s a truly unique-to-Philadelphia food,” she said. “Even just 40 miles north of Philadelphia, ‘tomato pie’ means something completely different. On special occasions, like Super Bowl Sunday, you’d better order ahead, because you won’t be able to get it on the day of.”

Forget the gridiron routine. This year’s political conventions will probably provide a lot more excitement. They deserve a taste of something beyond wings and beer.

Pour 36 ounces (3 bottles) of the root beer into a pan over medium-high heat.

Bring just to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium; cook gently until very thick and reduced to 1/2 cup; this can take up to 2 hours. Let cool.

Combine the milk, heavy cream and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat; once the mixture starts to bubble at the edges, remove from the heat.

Whisk the egg yolks in a large liquid measuring cup, then whisk in 1/4 cup of the hot milk mixture. Add the tempered egg yolks to the saucepan with the hot milk mixture, stirring constantly over medium heat until the mixture has thickened into a custard that can coat the back of a spoon. Strain the custard through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl, discarding any solids, then add the vanilla bean paste, the 1/2 cup of reduced root beer and the remaining 12 ounces of root beer, stirring to incorporate.

Set the bowl into a larger bowl filled with ice water and stir the custard well to promote quick cooling. Pour the custard into a container with a tight-fitting lid; seal and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.

Once the custard is thoroughly chilled, process it in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Transfer to a freezer-safe container; seal and freeze for up to a month.

34 Apps can help with minor hearing loss Dear Dr. K: I suffer from minor hearing loss, but not bad enough for a hearing aid.

My wife complains about the volume on the TV, and I can’t always keep up with conversations at a party or restaurant.

I’m not looking for a technological fix just yet. Can you give me some practical solutions?

Dear Reader: I’m happy to share some practical tips for dealing with minor hearing loss.

Before I do, though, I’d advise you to see a doctor. Hearing loss may be caused by a variety of things, including an underlying health condition.

If you are experiencing normal, age-related hearing loss, you might at some point benefit from a hearing aid.

In the meantime, here are some listening strategies that should help you to get the most out of a conversation or public event: • Come in for a close-up. Move within 6 to 10 feet of the other person and focus on his or her face. You might not be a lip reader, but you can pick up a lot of cues from a person’s mouth and facial expressions. If you’re in a group, position yourself so you can see everyone.

• Put your best ear forward. If one ear has better hearing than the other, try to keep it toward the speaker.

• Ban shouting. Ask friends and family to come into the same room to talk to you, not to shout from a distance.

• Listen up. Follow the speaker closely.

Once you become familiar with someone’s speaking patterns and style, you’ll be better able to pick up words and phrases that otherwise might be confusing.

• Stake out your turf. If you’re going to a

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff talk or live performance, try to find a seat about six rows from the front and in line with the speaker’s face. At the theater or movies, try to get an unobstructed view.

If you can, avoid sitting under a balcony.

Try out an assistive-listening device if one is available.

• Enlist your smartphone. By downloading one of several free apps and adding a pair of earbuds or wireless headphones, you can convert your smartphone into an entry-level hearing aid.

All of the apps amplify sounds picked up on your phone’s microphone. Several also have features common to a digital hearing aid. For instance, they can focus on close or distant sounds and adjust levels of background noise.

I’m in the same position as you. I have mild hearing loss, and I’d like to at least postpone using a hearing aid. I’ve tried all of these tips except the last, and I can confirm they help me.

Although I’d like to postpone using one, things have changed a lot in the world of hearing aids. They are both better and smaller, no longer large and unsightly.

Hearing loss falls into the category of ailments that, if you have to have them, are easier to deal with in this century than in the last.

• Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

HOW TO PLAY Each row, column and set of 3-by-3 boxes must contain the numbers 1 through 9 without repetition.

wife and I have been together for eight years.

When we first met, I was in the military and she was a bartender. Needless to say, she made far more money than I did at the time. Six months into our relationship, she got pregnant and quit her job. For the next seven years she raised our children and went to school while I did whatever I had to do – working two jobs – to make enough to pay the bills.

I am now out of the military. I have been at a company for six years, and we finally are reaching a point where we don’t worry about money as much. She will graduate from school soon, and hopefully start working right after.

She now says when she starts working, she wants to keep separate bank accounts and split the bills evenly based on pay.

Until now, I haven’t resented her for not working because she has been caring for our children, our home and has been a full-time student, but the thought of her wanting to keep her money to herself is weird and hurtful to me. How can I bring this up with her without making it seem as if I think she owes me something? – Separate Accounts In Texas Dear Separate Accounts: Ask your wife why she wants to separate your finances, because marriage is supposed to be a partnership. She does “owe you something” – an explanation.

Dear Abby: I am a 65-year-old cross-dresser who has a deep, burning desire to be a woman.

I guess you could call me gender dysphoric. I never will realize this dream of mine, though, and I have accepted myself as I am and have learned to live with it. I am not depressed.

My situation is difficult because my wife does not approve, so I try to be discreet. Sometimes I underdress and finish my hair and makeup in the car in a park. Then I’ll walk or go shopping. I like people to see me like this.

Because they don’t know me, I’m sure sometimes they see a man in a dress, but I don’t mind.

However, I am always alone in my altered state and all the groups meet at night. I’m a daytime person, and it’s much easier to get out as “Sheila” in the late mornings and early afternoons. Is there some way for me to find some groups that meet in the afternoon? Is there someone I can contact? I appreciate your help. – Just A Dream Dear Just A Dream: An organization that has appeared in my column before might be helpful for you. It’s the Society for the Second Self (Tri-Ess International), and it offers not only support for heterosexual cross-dressers, but also their spouses, partners and families.

It’s the oldest and largest support organization for cross-dressers and the people who love them. It promotes cross-dressing with dignity and decency, and treats spouses on an equal basis with their cross-dressers. To learn more about it, contact Tri-Ess at www.tri-ess.org.

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Opportunities will surface, but if you hide and refuse to engage in life, someone else will steal your ticket to success. Be bold and let everyone know how you feel and what you want. Don’t let your dwelling on the past stop you from enjoying the present.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Take a chance and visit a place you’ve never been before or consider signing up for an event or activity that will bring out your creative talents. Reconnect with an old friend.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – If you share your feelings, you will be able to resolve issues that concern you. A change will give you a new

lease on life. Romance and personal improvements are highlighted.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Seize the moment and take advantage of a suggestion someone makes. A partnership will inspire you to try something you’ve never done before. Helping others will be gratifying.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – If you look at the bright side of a situation, you will come out a winner. You should be able to coax someone you enjoy being with to take part in your escapades.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – You don’t have to say yes to every request that comes your way. Divvy up your time carefully to ensure you take care of your own concerns first and foremost.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – You will have to make a choice. You can chase a dream or you can establish a strategy that has the potential to bring greater security and stability to your life.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – If you sign a contract or develop a plan that includes someone you want to collaborate with, you will benefit from the outcome. High energy coupled with determination will lead to success.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Don’t worry about what anyone else is doing. Consider what you enjoy doing most and use your skills and knowledge to develop what you want to achieve. Romance is featured.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Offer your services in order to enjoy the benefits you will

receive in return. Taking a different approach to whatever you do will distinguish you as a free thinker.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Don’t be fooled by a fast talker. Stay on top of your financial situation. The appreciation you get for helping others will be rewarding.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Concentrate on negotiations and situations that need some attention. A personal or physical change will turn out better than anticipated. Romance is encouraged.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Taking short trips or visiting friends or someone you can learn from will lead you on a new adventure. Soak in everything you see and hear, and incorporate what you can use into your everyday life.

P.T

Eddie Rickenbacker said, “The obviously inexperienced pilot is the game the scientific air-fighter goes after, and the majority of victories are won that way. But, on the other hand, it is the novice usually who gets the famous ace by doing at some moment the unexpected thing.”

Rickenbacker must have avoided those novices during World War I. At the bridge table, we love not only aces but also well-placed shortages.

Look at today’s North hand. Partner opens one diamond, and the next player makes a takeout double. How would you plan the auction?

To be honest, it isn’t clear-cut what to do. You might bid one heart, but a 4-4 fit there is unlikely. My favorite choice is a three-spade splinter bid, to show a singleton or void in spades, four or more diamonds and at least game-forcing values (which makes it a slight overbid). An alternative is two no-trump, Truscott, promising four-card or longer diamond support and at least game-invitational values. Or you could redouble, indicating 10-plus high-card points.

After the splinter bid, South should love his hand with all of those aces and the fifth trump. He should control-bid four clubs to suggest a slam, but hopefully the auction would end in five diamonds. How should declarer plan the play after the spade-king lead?

South should see five possible losers: three spades, one heart and one diamond. He can eliminate the spade losers by ruffing them on the board.

The play should go: spade ace, spade ruff, club to the ace, spade ruff, club king, club ruff in hand, spade ruff with the diamond king, diamond ace, heart to the ace, diamond jack.

Declarer loses only two tricks.
