JOLIET – Both companies in the running to take over operations at the Rialto Square Theatre say they are ready to start Sept. 1.

The Rialto board at a special meeting at 4 p.m. Wednesday is slated to vote on whether to turn over management of the theater to Pinnacle Venue Services or VenuWorks. Sept. 1 has been mentioned as a possible start date. Here is what representatives from the two companies said they could do for the theater during presentations made at a Rialto committee meeting Monday.

Pinnacle

Pinnacle made news with the surprise announcement that they had made Ron Onesti, who was turned down in his bid to be the third-party manager, part of its team. Onesti has some community support and is known for his Arcada Theatre in St. Charles.

But Pinnacle Managing Partner Doug Higgons said his company has experience running 13 venues and would bring in a management team immediately to

VenuWorks

The VenuWorks team discussed ticket sales, bookings, food and beverage sales, acts performing at its other theaters, and even safety planning for tornadoes and other emergencies.

For more on the Rialto Square Theatre, see Page 4.

VenuWorks President Steve Peters said the company would be able to increase Rialto revenues by $295,000 in the first year of management.

“This isn’t a pipe dream,” Peters said.

Food and beverage sales will be a big part of the new revenue, VenuWorks representatives said. They mentioned walking tacos, sandwiches and even soup as menu items that generate money for daylong events such as dance competitions at a theater in Burnsville, Minnesota.

“We’re trying a lot of new menu items, and we’re seeing a very positive return,” said Brian Luther, executive director of the Ames Center in Burnsville.

Peters also presented a schedule for reducing the Rialto’s subsidy from the city, which was $600,000 this year, to $125,000 in three years, although he added, “These aren’t guarantees.”

VenuWorks is based in Ames, Iowa, and manages 37 theaters, sports facilities, conference centers and outdoor venues.

Design of Will County Judicial Complex nearing completion

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A schematic design of the new Will County Judicial Complex is on track to be completed by the end of this week.

Jason Dwyer, project manager with Darien-based firm Wight & Co., updated the Will County Board’s Capital Improvements Committee on the latest design advancements on Tuesday. He said the firm is planning to review the design at the end of the month with the committee, and then make an in-depth presentation to the committee Sept. 20.

With a budget of $195 million, the firm is designing a building with 10 floors, two of which will be made to accommodate future growth. A new development is that the design team appears to have found a way to comfortably fit five courtrooms, rather than four, on a couple of the floors. The plan was to have four courtrooms on most floors, totaling close to 40 on final buildout.

“We’re doing everything we can to maximize potential within the budget,” Dwyer

review Rialto operations.

“We’re not a cookie-cutter approach,” Higgons told the Rialto committee Monday. “How we operate a theater in Florida does not impact how we operate a theater in Joliet or Pennsylvania or anyplace else.”

Pinnacle, based in Virginia Beach, Virginia, manages the Bank United Center for the University of Miami and smaller theaters comparable to the Rialto, he said.

The company is less than two years old, but Higgons said he and the three other company officers who joined him in the presentation have more than 150 years of combined experience in the entertainment business.

Higgons said he believes the Rialto could have 145 events in the first year of Pinnacle management, and he called that a “conservative projection.” He predicted 175 events annually by the third year.

said.

Much of the discussion, however, centered on secure parking for the county’s judges. Shallow bedrock at the future site of the complex, directly west of the existing courthouse on Jefferson Street in downtown Joliet, eliminated the possibility of an underground parking area for judges.

It appears the next best option is to configure some sort of parking area for judges on the Washington Street lot south of the future courthouse, Dwyer said. It could range from a fenced-in area with manned security, cameras and lighting, to an above-ground parking structure that would cost significantly more.

One potential issue is that a garage on the site is the only current storage area for plow and salt trucks that clear the courthouse parking lot during winter. The firm will present some cost estimates at a future meeting.

panies informed the committee that 36 bids were received for work in bid package one of the Will County Public Safety Complex, which was released a few weeks ago. It is the first of three bid packages. Bid package two will be released Wednesday.

“We’ve gotten off to a great start with the bidding process,” McMillen said.

Six of the eight low bidders are based in Will County, with another based in nearby Coal City. A couple of sections of bid package one will now be rolled into bid package two because bidders did not meet certain requirements. McMillen said the bidding companies were informed of what was lacking and plan to rebid.

McMillen said the target date to start work still is Sept. 15, with a groundbreaking ceremony tentatively scheduled for Oct. 7. The safety complex, to be built on the existing sheriff’s office site near the intersection of Laraway Road and Route 52 in Joliet, is estimated to cost the county about $30 million.

Will, Grundy officials will race trucks at 8 p.m. Saturday

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Will County Sheriff Mike Kelley used to take his Pontiac Firebird to the track at Route 66 Raceway.

On Saturday, he returns to the track – this time with other officials from Will and Grundy counties, who will face off in the Will County vs. Grundy County Grudge Match as part of the Route 66 Classic.

Kelley will race Grundy County Sheriff Kevin Callahan; Joliet Mayor Bob O’Dekirk will race Morris Mayor Richard Kopczick; Joliet Police Chief Brian Benton will race Morris Police Chief Brent Dite; Joliet Fire Chief Joe Formhals will race Morris Fire Chief Tracey Steffes; and Will County State’s Attorney James Glasgow will race Grundy County State’s Attorney Jason Helland.

Kelley, Callahan, O’Dekirk, Kopczick, Dite and Helland were at the track Tuesday afternoon for a practice run organized by track management. They signed waivers and were briefed on in-vehicle and track safety procedures, as well as a race day walk-through.

The contestants will race trucks supplied by event sponsor D’Arcy Motors, which has dealerships in both Joliet and Morris.

Although Kelley plans to bring his Firebird out to the track Saturday for old time’s sake and test it out, he said, it will be different to drive trucks in the Grudge Match. He said he’s never driven a truck in a race.

The brand-new, white, chromed-out Chevrolet Silverados and GMC Sierras have 400-plus horsepower. Though nothing like a race car, they showed impressive acceleration.

“These trucks have a lot of horsepower to get off the line,” Dite said.

“They are not like the trucks of 20 or 30 years ago.”

Participants Tuesday were warned by track management not to screech the tires and to stay under 30 mph for the practice run. But drivers were focused on getting a good start off the line, so there were a few screeches.

“We’re racing identical vehicles,” Kelley said. “So whoever gets off the line better will probably win.”

Helland was the first of the participants to arrive and sought advice from anyone he could about the trucks and the key to winning Saturday. He said

Kopczick owns a GMC Sierra, one of

opponent drives, but was humble when asked whether he has an advantage in knowing the truck.

“It can’t hurt,” he said. “I’m pretty comfortable with it.”

Proceeds from the event will be donated to charities of each winner’s choice.

Kelley said that if he wins, he will donate to Special Olympics, an organization the Will County Sheriff’s Office

Audit: No exclusion of minority applicants at D-204

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – An external audit of hiring practices at Joliet High School District 204 showed no intentional or unintentional exclusion of minority applicants – but it did outline room for improvement.

The results of the audit that reviewed District 204 hiring practices as of spring 2016 was presented to the board Tuesday by attorney José Behar.

The board approved at the May 17 meeting for Behar – who worked with attorney Charlie Wysong and paralegals – to conduct the audit. Earlier this year, residents raised concerns over the diversity of district staff that led to a community meeting in March.

The attorneys did not identify any

specific district policy or practice that directly excludes minority applicants or “appears to discriminatorily affect minority applicants,” according to the audit report.

“Overall, the system works. Of course, there is room for improvement,” Behar said.

One caveat Behar noted was that implicit or unconscious bias in hiring is inevitable.

He showed the board a chart of its current certified workforce versus its student population.

The workforce is 85 percent white, 8 percent black and 5 percent Latino; the student population is 45 percent Latino, 27 percent white and 24 percent black.

“If the district is interested in encouraging more diversity among its staff and diversity that better mirrors its student bodies, we have made

some recommendations,” Behar said.

He said there’s “no need to start over” because the district’s hiring process is “good and sound,” but the district may want to implement the recommendations made in the report.

Some of them included

• Expanding recruitment opportunities for minority applicants • Seeking additional perspectives on hiring • Implementing a conflict of interest policy • Considering implicit bias training for people on hiring teams • Considering multiple hiring team leaders • Tracking diversity data Behar said that although the time frame of the audit was limited, he thought the legal team conducted a

Rialto attorney looking into late addition of Rob Onesti to management ‘team’

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Rialto Square Theatre board on Wednesday will consider what legal problems a finalist in the running for third-party manager may have created by adding Ron Onesti to its team, the board’s chairman said Tuesday.

Rialto Chairman Dan Vera answered a firing line of questions at the Joliet City Council meeting.

The meeting also included some criticism of the online petition drive to get Onesti in as Rialto manager for including signers from as far away as Las Vegas.

Onesti Entertainment, which owns the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles, was among five companies that made proposals to become third-party manager.

Onesti did not make the cut. But one of the companies that did, Pinnacle Venue Services announced that it has added Onesti to its “team” while making a presentation to a Rialto committee on Monday.

Vera was asked by two council members whether Pinnacle had changed its proposal by adding Onesti.

He said the Rialto’s attorney was looking into the matter on Tuesday.

“We’re going to discuss that tomor-

row, and that will be a decision by the board,” Vera said.

Onesti was added amid a petition campaign organized in part by Rialto board member Mary Beth Gannon, who wants him to manage the theater.

The online petition has more than 1,100 signers.

But Tim Shanahan, a member of the Rialto’s foundation board, said advocates for Onesti misrepresented the signers as all being local when they came to the City Council on Monday and talked about the petition. Shanahan named DeKalb, Mattoon and Las Vegas as a few of the towns where signers lived.

“That was a direct attempt in my opinion to mislead this group,” Shanahan said.

Vera, meanwhile, faced a series of questions from Mayor Bob O’Dekirk,

who questioned the Rialto’s ability to survive and criticized the two finalists – Pinnacle and VenuWorks – in the third-party management search.

O’Dekirk noted that the management companies would collect fees while projecting that the Rialto would continue to lose money in the next three years.

“The theater companies make money, and the theater loses money,” O’Dekirk said. “I don’t think either one of these are good deals.”

O’Dekirk also criticized Vera for having Onesti make a presentation to the Rialto board before the board decided to seek proposals from third-party management companies, saying Onesti was “forced to stand up and publicly show his hand.”

Actually, both Onesti and VenuWorks made presentations to the Rialto board before a decision was made to look for a third-party manager. Vera said he also asked Harrah’s, a company O’Dekirk at one time was promoting, to make presentations because those companies had contacted him, and the third-party management concept was new to the Rialto.

“I invited all three of them to come to make a presentation on what it means to have a third-party manager,” Vera said.

comprehensive report that analyzed written materials, demographic data, hiring files and strategic interviews, many of them in person.

He said it’s probably true that the biggest deficit in the district’s hiring process is the lack of minority candidates in its applicant pool, which is not a unique issue among districts nationwide.

Some people interviewed during the audit had either the belief or perception in the past that minorities weren’t considered for job openings as much as white people or that because district staff is so overwhelmingly white that minorities weren’t being given a fair shot, he said.

“A lot of this is the networking, it’s ‘who you know.’ That’s one of the reasons for the suggestion of creating a conflict of interest policy,” he said.

Former Herald-News writer Dennis Yohnka dies at 68

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com KANKAKEE – Dennis Yohnka, former Herald-News employee and Joliet Township High School spokesman, died Monday at age 68. Posts on Yohnka’s Facebook page indicate he was hospitalized Sunday night.

Friends said he recently Dennis had heart issues.

The Herald-News Yohnka brought Yohnka to Joliet in the 1990s as the paper’s marketing director and he went on to cover local auto racing as a freelance writer during the

time he worked for the school district from 1998 to 2008.

“I loved to use him because he not only knew what was going on [during races],” Herald-News Sports Editor Dick Goss said Tuesday, “He could find someone you wouldn’t have thought was a story in the first place and come up with something very interesting.

Sometimes a very off-the-wall story.”

Goss said Yohnka’s enthusiasm for motorsports also helped the paper’s coverage when the Chicagoland Speedway brought national events to Joliet.

Goss also said the late Herald-News Publisher Marx Gibson delighted in telling about the time Yohnka brought a horse into the newsroom during their

days at the Kankakee Daily Journal.

“I think just about everybody who was there for that story has gone to the great newsroom in the sky, but I’ve no doubt it’s true,” said Yohnka’s longtime friend, Jim Murphy.

Murphy, of Joliet-based J.V. Murphy & Associates, met Yohnka in 1980 when they both worked in Kankakee media.

“He was quite simply the funniest guy I ever knew,” Murphy said. “He had a warped sense of humor, but he expressed it in a very intelligent way.”

From their time in Kankakee, Murphy verified the stories of Yohnka bringing a medical exam table into a bar for laughs and the time Yohnka arranged for a live turkey to make an appearance

in a classroom during a school fundraiser around Thanksgiving.

In 2005, Yohnka went to McDonald’s restaurants in Joliet and Crest Hill for lunch and dinner for 50 days and lost 40 pounds eating salads with chicken. His diet made national news as a counterpoint to the negative effects of a fast-food diet shown in the documentary “Super-Size Me.” Yohnka also attempted to open a bed-and-breakfast in the Cathedral area, but was unable to obtain the necessary approvals, before he returned to the Kankakee paper as a reporter and columnist.

Yohnka is survived by his wife, Terry, four children and 12 grandchildren, according to the Daily-Journal.

Joliet offers remedy for overgrown weeds and other code violations SHAW MEDIA JOLIET – Joliet residents can use the City of Joliet’s mobile app to report overgrown weeds and other code violations and then track the city’s response.

NEW LENOX – The Lincoln-Way District 210 board will consider approving this week an agreement with Aunt Nancy’s Child Care, which has been criticized by residents for operating rent-free.

On the agenda for Thursday’s meeting is an agreement that may result in the child-care provider having to pay an annual remittance to the district after operating more than 20 years without doing so.

District spokeswoman Taryn Atwell said Tuesday that the board will be discussing the agreement and making a decision in open session.

Aunt Nancy’s has been criticized by residents since at least January for operating rent-free at the financially struggling school district. Over the summer, district officials have discussed negotiating a one-year contract with Aunt Nancy’s.

The board made adjustments to a draft agreement at the July 21 meeting that included raising the proposed annual remittance from $60,000 to $90,000 after some members found the amount insufficient.

In recent weeks, several of the district’s Finance and Building Committee members, as well as the teachers union president, have raised concerns about Aunt Nancy’s increasing rates of their services in light of potentially paying rent.

“I don’t think the profit should be coming off the backs of the individuals

using the services, especially in light of how many years [Aunt Nancy’s] has gone without paying any type of overhead,” one committee member said at the Aug. 9 meeting.

Board member Christopher Kosel said at the meeting that the board is aware of the concerns and negotiations between the business and district have been ongoing.

He said he doesn’t want to see Aunt Nancy’s tack on additional revenue on the “backs of teachers,” who use the daycare’s services.

“They’re going to walk away or we’re going to walk away,” Kosel said.

An attempt Monday to reach Nancy Power, listed by the state as an agent of Aunt Nancy’s, at the daycare’s Lincoln-Way Central branch was unsuccessful.

An attempt to reach Power or leave a message Tuesday at the same location resulted in the call being hung up.

Atwell said Aunt Nancy’s has been operating rent-free at Lincoln-Way for more than 20 years. According to the state, it was incorporated in 1989.

Tim Conway, Lincoln-Way Education Association president, sent an email to union teachers July 29, stating that the union was informed by Superintendent Scott Tingley that Aunt Nancy’s would possibly pass the cost of providing revenue to the district on to the teachers by charging an extra $700 to $800 a year.

“The LWEA has implored the district to not allow Aunt Nancy’s to burden our young families with additional financial costs,” Conway stated.

JOLIET – The first-ever Will County Bikeway Plan will be available for public review and comment beginning Aug. 31 on the Forest Preserve District of Will County’s website, ReconnectWithNature.org.

After the public comment period ends Sept. 30, the plan will go to the district’s Board of Commissioners for approval, which is expected at the Nov. 10 meeting, according to a news release from the district.

The bikeway plan identifies areas where non-motorized transportation opportunities can be expanded throughout Will County and beyond.

Greenways, roadways and utility corridors were all reviewed as possible sites for bicycle access improvements.

While some bikeway corridors already exist in the county, a comprehensive planning guide was needed to improve clarity between multiple user groups and levels of government. The goals of the plan are to expand transportation choices, enhance connectivity, improve safety and comfort, and promote bicycling benefits.

Crest Hill council votes to cut vehicle stickers

By ANNA SCHIER

aschier@shawmedia.com CREST HILL – Come 2017, vehicle stickers will be a thing of the past in Crest Hill.

The Crest Hill City Council voted at its meeting Monday to approve repealing a division of the city’s code of ordinances in order to do away with the stickers.

All aldermen present voted in favor of the measure. Alderwoman Claudia Gazal was absent.

Mayor Ray Soliman said Crest Hill has had vehicle stickers for at least 50 years. In 2016, stickers cost $10 for most Crest Hill drivers and $2 for seniors.

Officials said the removal of the stickers boiled down to various city departments simply having bigger things to worry about.

“The clerk’s office can be better served in other capacities to the residents,” said City Clerk Vicki Hackney, who led the push for the change along with Crest Hill’s treasurer and administrator.

Hackney said sticker sales are estimated to generate $75,000 for the city in 2016, but when the costs to sustain the program are factored in, that

“The clerk’s office can be better served in other capacities to the residents.”

Vicki Hackney Crest Hill city clerk

amount is significantly less. Crest Hill has no plan to recoup the loss in revenue, Hackney said, because it is too small an amount of money to warrant such action.

Soliman said he would rather see city police spend their time fighting crime than worrying about a municipal issue such as sticker compliance enforcement.

Also Monday, the council adopted a resolution waiving competitive bidding for concrete barrier wall replacements on Broadway Street between Elsie Avenue and Theodore Street, Public Works Director Tony Torres said.

City Administrator Jim Elmquist said that contractor MYS Inc., which did similar work for the city last year, offered to do the job for $28,000. The rate was deemed competitive enough that bidding was unnecessary, Elm-

quist said.

Torres said construction will start in mid- or late-September and last two or three weeks. He said it is possible lane reductions will be required, but no major delays are anticipated.

In addition Monday, Soliman honored the Crest Hill Boys Pony League All Stars baseball team with a resolution after the team came in second in the Pony North Zone Tournament last month in Bay City, Michigan.

“They’re a great group of young men,” Soliman said of the 13- and

BREAKFAST • BRUNCH LUNCH • DINNER

14-year-old players.

About 50 people were in attendance for the recognition. Among them was state Sen. Pat McGuire, D-Joliet, who honored Joe Marshall, who has run the local Pony League program for 37 years, and his wife, Donna Marshall.

This is the team’s second year in a row taking runner-up in the zone tournament.

“We try to do everything we can to represent Crest Hill in the best way,” Joe Marshall said.

D-201 meeting includes talks of buses and budgets

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent MINOOKA – Another academic year has begun, and the Minooka School District 201 board met Monday in the Minooka Primary Center gymnasium in case of increased attendance because of an ongoing bus driver and aide negotiation disputes.

Teamsters Local 179 filed notices of intent to District 111 and District 201 two weeks ago, citing difficulties over the first contract negotiations between the districts and their bus drivers and aides.

About 30 drivers and aides from the district attended Monday night’s District 201 meeting, but Bus 84 aide Cindy Druml was the only one to give public comment.

Druml, who is pro-union, said she has been an aide for two years and when she was assigned to Bus 84, she noticed problems with the vehicle. She alleged those issues were only addressed in November, when the union was voted into action. She questioned the board about

Help Your Child Succeed

contracts and bus safety.

“The drivers and aides only want a safe environment for the children and to cut down as much as possible the jeopardy they are in while being transported,” Druml said. “We are not ungrateful employees as you have called us; we simply cannot understand why this board would spend tens of thousands of dollars of taxpayers’ money stalling negotiations to get the union out.”

Druml used her five minutes of time to elaborate and when finished there seemed to be support from the other drivers and aides in attendance via applause. The board opened to more comments, and then resumed the meeting per the agenda.

The main part of the night went to discussing the proposed budget Superintendent Kris Monn displayed to the board. He hit highlights of what main differences were from 2015-16 to 2016-17, with confidence of an increase in general aid funds from the state.

General state aid increased to $9.3

million up from $8.7 million projected, and $6.7 million received by the district last year. Monn said he used numbers from January to create his projection, but documents changed and showed 100 more students in the district, which was why the actual number was higher.

“Our first distribution of this was received in early August, which is multiplied over 22 payments. The state aid always comes on time like clockwork two times a month from August until June,” Monn said.

In operating funds, Monn gave a pro-

jected number of about $36 million in revenue against projected expenditures of about $37.1 million, leaving a deficit of about $1.15 million.

In non-operating funds, which include the debt service fund, capital projects fund and life safety fund, Monn projected a balanced budget of about $6.7 million.

Monn said for the total budget, with operating and non-operating funds, the projected revenue total is about $42.6 million against projected expenditures of about $43.8 million, leaving about a $1.13 million deficit.

A budget hearing was approved by the board and set for the board meeting at 7 p.m. Sept. 19 in the district office boardroom.

Trustees deny resident’s demand for water aerator

By JEANNE MILLSAP

Shaw Media correspondent CHANNAHON – Channahon will not pay to purchase and place a water aerator in the pond of a resident’s backyard, Village President Missey Moorman Schumacher told the homeowner Monday. Steve Sobczak came Monday before the Village Board for the second time this month, asking for the aerator.

His pond, behind his house at 26500 S. McKinley Woods Road, used to have the device, he said, which kept the water oxygenated and healthy. Sobczak said a previous owner removed the aerator to save on his electric bill. But without it, the water quality suffers. On Aug. 1, Sobczak made his first plea to trustees.

“It becomes a cesspool when it sits stagnant,” Sobczak told the board.

“The water running off into the pond is untreated. Most days, the pond has a sheen to it. Yesterday, there were detergent-type bubbles.”

Sobczak said that while he owns the property, the village should be responsible for maintaining the quality of the pond, as discharge from the neighbor-

hood flows into it. Several runoff pipes drain into the water, he said, and the overflow helps keep nearby homes from flooding during rains. Since his pond helps other homeowners and the village, Sobczak said, the village should maintain it.

When Sobczak returned to the board this week, he began his request with, “I want my aerator.”

“You have every right to install an aerator, sir,” Moorman Schumacher replied. “It is not appropriate to use tax dollars to attend to your private property.”

Sobczak retorted that he didn’t think it was right that the village could “just dump, dump, dump,” without financing water treatment.

Channahon Community Development Director Mike Petrick said he had researched the history of the property and found it had been part of a homeowners association that had since gone defunct. After dissolution of the association, Petrick said, the village communicated to the former association’s residents that they would be responsible for maintaining their own properties.

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.

THE INSURANCE COMPANY ON MY PENDING WORK COMPENSATION CASE HAS SCHEDULED AN INDEPENDENT MEDICAL EXAM. WHAT SHOULD I KNOW? A. The “I” was taken out of “Independent” many years ago. While there are still a few good independent medical examiners, most will write findings which will favor the employer to the extent there could be any medical justification. In other words, if it’s black and white the results may favor the claimant, but anything in a gray area will almost always favor the employer.

B K M

Finally, you are not attending this examination to tell the doctor your life’s history. As is true in depositions, answer the questions asked fully, but do not ramble or volunteer what is not asked, unless you have checked with your attorney first and one particular aspect is vital to the case and important to appear in his report. I hope everyone finds this information, although generalized, helpful.

Q. I was injured when my airbag didn’t open during an accident. My sister wants me to use her divorce attorney.

He’s a lawyer, so this should be okay, right?

A. Probably not. Unless the attorney works with a group that also handles injury and/or product cases, he most likely is not well versed in the intricacies needed to provide you the skills necessary to obtain the best verdict or settlement for you.

While Illinois does not allow attorneys to claim they are “specialists”, it is true that most attorneys have certain areas of law that they practice on a regular basis and are therefore, more familiar with the rules and local courtroom procedures. For example, the area of Medical Malpractice law is very different from Divorce law and both have little in common with Criminal Law. A great Criminal attorney may not be as good at Divorce and vise versa.

When looking for an injury attorney, you should check to see what percentage of the firm practices in that area. You should specifically ask

SM-CL0363141

On physical examination, don’t try to outsmart the examiner. If he does something and it doesn’t hurt, he’s likely giving you a malingering test so that if you say it does, he will find symptom magnification, another case killer. I have told clients I would rather have a physical examination with no findings then an exam where this is alleged. Unless acute, most injuries are between the 3/10 and 7–8/10 range of the pain scale. Claims after a period of healing and extended treatment that an injury is in the 9 or 10/10 range raises red flags and hurts, rather than helps, the case.

the attorney that will be handling your case what his/her experience is with your type of case. Many times a multiple attorney office is dedicated primarily to one type of law and not as familiar with other types. Other firms may have attorneys that practice in several areas.

You have the right to know which attorney will be handling your case and how familiar that attorney is with (1) the area of law; (2) your type of injury; and (3) the court system your case will be involved in (the county/district/judge). You can also check the firm WEB site to gather additional information. Each of these factors should be considered by you before hiring your attorney.

Remember, you need an attorney knowledgeable about your type of case. You need an attorney you can communicate with well; and you need an attorney willing to answer your questions. Your relationship with this attorney is likely to last for a few years. Find someone you trust; someone who is familiar with your type of case & injury; and someone with a history of handling your type of case.

• Wednesday, August 17, 2016

When you go to the exam, the history is one of the most important aspects. Be prepared to give the examiner your past medical history from before the accident, as the best way to lose a case is to deny previous injuries or treatment when medical records can be obtained which show you had such treatment, or the treatment is obvious from imaging. Be prepared to give the examiner an accurate history of the accident in question, as he will be looking for a version which makes a plausible mechanism of injury unlikely. If you have a repetitive trauma claim, be prepared to tell the doctor how stressful to the body the various activities are, and how frequently they were performed, both in terms of number of times and hours in the

day that they were performed. Even if duties are varied, make sure that you get across that every day so many of the activities were performed in such a manner. And then, as is true of the entire history, hope that the examiner writes it down correctly, which unfortunately isn’t always the case. They at least write histories with a slant favoring the employer.

John McLaughlin, host of confrontational TV show, dead at 89

By FRAZIER MOORE The Associated Press

NEW YORK – John McLaughlin, the conservative political commentator and host of the namesake long-running television show that pioneered hollering-heads discussions of Washington politics, has died. He was 89.

McLaughlin died Tuesday morning, according to an announcement on the Facebook page of “The McLaughlin Group” series. No cause of death was mentioned, but an ailing McLaughlin had missed the taping for this past weekend’s show for the first time in the

series’ 34 years.

Since its debut in April 1982, “The McLaughlin Group” upended the soft-spoken and nonconfrontational style of shows such as “Firing Line,” “Washington Week in Review” and “Agronsky & Co.” with a raucous format that largely dispensed with politicians. It instead featured journalists quizzing, talking over and sometimes insulting each other. In recent years, the show billed itself as “The American Original” – a nod to shows that copied the format.

“My feeling is talk shows have not kept pace with the breakthroughs and changes in format in television gener-

ally,” McLaughlin told The Associated Press in 1986. “I began the group as a talk show of the ’90s.”

He said informing an audience could be entertaining: “The acquisition of knowledge need not be like listening to the Gregorian chant.”

Critics said the show was more about show business and entertainment than journalism and politics. They said it celebrated nasty posturing, abhorred complexity and featured a group of mostly aging conservative white men spouting off on topics they knew little about.

“Whether it was the guerrilla strategy of Afghan mujahedeen or the next

open-market operation by the Federal Reserve Board, the members of the group always seemed to have just gotten off the phone with the guy in charge,” Eric Alterman charged in his 2000 book, “Sound and Fury: The Making of the Punditocracy.”

But the format was hugely successful. As McLaughlin himself might have said, on a probability scale from zero to 10 – zero meaning zero probability, 10 meaning metaphysical certitude – in the show’s heyday, the chances that the Washington establishment were faithfully tuning in each week was definitely a 10.

Beach, FL; and very special brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Chuck and Patricia Peyla of Fort Myers, FL. Funeral services for Edna E. Peyla will be held Thursday, Aug. 18, 2016, at 11 a.m. at the Fred C. Dames Funeral Home Chapel 3200 Black at Essington roads, Joliet. Fr. Chris Groh officiating.

cellphones and computers under decades-old disclosure laws that didn’t anticipate such an explosion of electronic communication.

The ruling determined that the Chicago Police Department improperly failed to search 12 officers’ personal email accounts for discussion of the October 2014 fatal shooting of McDonald, an unarmed black man, by a white

police officer. Atlanta-based CNN appealed that omission to the public access counselor under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act. “This binding opinion will hopefully make clear that public employees cannot evade FOIA by using private devices when conducting public business,” said John Costello, a Chicago public-access lawyer.

Among the officers whose emails CNN is seeking are Officer Jason Van Dyke, who shot McDonald 16 times, and Deputy Chief David McNaughton, who approved the report that the shooting was justified and who abruptly retired Monday.

A CNN spokeswoman would not comment on the matter, but it’s likely the TV network is trying to determine what other news media organizations have sought – whether officers on the scene cooperated in covering up the true sequence of events leading to McDonald’s shooting, a sequence that became clear a year later when a judge ordered police to release a dashboard-camera video of the shooting.

The examples of the tussle over ac-

cess to public discussions on private devices are piling up. Just in the last year, the news media have challenged not only Emanuel and his police department, but Gov. Bruce Rauner’s education adviser, who was conducting public business with a private email account. And The Associated Press filed a lawsuit last year over the State Department’s failure to turn over Clinton’s emails. Separately, the FBI declared in July that while she was secretary of state, Clinton, now the Democratic presidential nominee, had improperly read and sent classified government information on private devices.

The issue cost former University of Illinois chancellor Phyllis Wise her job last fall in a case in which the university turned over the privately sent emails in question but declared that the law is “not settled.” That’s because an Illinois appellate court in 2013 addressed the issue of whether an electronic message sent by a city council member was under a public body’s control if the council member was not acting as part of the public body while convened for business.

SPRINGFIELD – Chicago police officers’ emails discussing the Laquan McDonald shooting can’t be kept secret even though they were transmitted privately, a state official has decreed in what open-records advocates say is a solid step toward transparency on an issue that has roiled Illinois and reached as high as Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.

The binding opinion last week by Democratic Attorney General Lisa Madigan follows quickly on a May Cook County Circuit Court ruling that Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s emails about separate issues aren’t automatically exempt from disclosure even though sent on private devices.

The opinion has the force of law, requiring the police to search officers’ private accounts and turn over relevant emails – although the police department can ask a judge to overturn it. The dictum also fuels an ongoing national debate about access to discussions of public business on privately held

News from across the state Traffic fatalities expected to reach 1,000 in 2016

SPRINGFIELD – Safety and insurance industry experts said Illinois traffic fatalities are expected to pass 1,000 this year for the first time since 2008 because of higher speeds, more miles driven and an increase in the number of younger drivers on the road.

As of Friday, 629 people had died in vehicle, motorcycle, pedestrian and bicycle crashes in Illinois this year, The State Journal-Register reported. The number is up 50 from the same period in 2015.

In 2015, there were a total of 998 traffic fatalities, which was the highest number since 1,043 died in 2008.

Itasca-based National Safety Council statistics manager Ken Kolosh said much of the rising toll has been on rural interstates.

“That’s where the larger part of fatalities occur,” Kolosh said. “It’s higher speeds.

Crashes tend to be more violent and

Roads amendment will be on November ballot

CHICAGO – When Illinois voters head to the polls in November, their first ballot question won’t involve U.S. presidential candidates, but a measure aimed at preventing transportation-related funding in the state from being used for other purposes.

Transportation-related funds – generated in part by tolls, license fees and the gas tax – have been targeted by state government for unrelated spending over the years. The Transportation for Illinois Coalition, made up of business groups and unions, estimates that since fiscal 2003, more than $6.8 billion set aside for transportation projects was spent elsewhere.

The so-called “lockbox amendment” on the Nov. 8 ballot proposes that the money be used solely for transportation-related purposes, such as construction or paying

Treasurer sets hearings on life insurance practices

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois Treasurer Michael Frerichs is launching a series of public hearings to explore how life insurance companies avoid paying death benefits.

The first hearing is set for Wednesday morning in the city council chambers in Normal.

The state treasurer’s office said Monday that it has identified more than $550 million in unpaid death benefits owed to families in Illinois and that $7.4 billion has been identified nationally.

Frerichs supports legislation to require insurers to use federal death records to identify deceased policyholders whose life insurance proceeds remain unpaid.

The bill awaits Gov. Bruce Rauner’s signature. A spokeswoman for the governor says the bill is under review.

Court slashes damages to Illinois riverboat casinos

CHICAGO – An appellate court has sharply reduced a jury’s damages award to several Illinois casinos from $78 million to $26 million in a case tied to imprisoned former Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

The 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals otherwise backed the jury’s findings in a lawsuit brought by riverboat casinos against a racetrack company.

But the three-judge panel concluded in a ruling posted earlier this month that there was insufficient evidence to support the finding of a conspiracy. So it required the damages award be reduced.

The trial focused on a pay-to-play deal prosecutors said involved Blagojevich and one of the racetrack company’s top executives, John Johnston.

The casinos paid millions in an effective tax imposed by the Blagojevich-era Legislature. The money went to support financially struggling, politically well-connected tracks.

Clinton continues spree of fundraising in August

By LISA LERER and JULIE BYKOWICZ The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Scranton isn’t a standard stop on the Democratic fundraising circuit. Yet Hillary Clinton put the working-class Pennsylvania town on her itinerary – several times.

The Democratic presidential nominee and her family have made four visits to Scranton donors since launching her campaign last August, raising millions of dollars in a former industrial city more known for needing economic aid than giving it out.

“Last July, we were all pinching ourselves and saying it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but then she came back,” said Grace McGregor, whose parents hosted an event Monday at their home.

Clinton is leaving no fundraiser behind as she crisscrosses the country scooping up cash. She’s already been to 10 fundraisers in the first half of the month, and some of the biggest events are yet to come.

In fact, she is on track to top the $90 million she raised for her campaign and Democratic allies in July.

August has always been one of the best months to raise money because voters tend to be more focused on their summer vacations than politics, giving candidates more time to woo donors.

Clinton definitely got that memo.

Donors can rock out to Cher at a Cape Cod “summer celebration” on Sunday and close out the month by dancing with Jimmy Buffett in the Hamptons. In between, during a Clinton California swing, they can talk politics with actor Leonardo DiCaprio, retired basketball star Magic Johnson or Apple CEO Tim Cook.

Why so many fundraisers?

“People in Montauk don’t go to Fire Island,” said Alan Patricof, a longtime Clinton

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton speaks at a campaign event Monday at Riverfront Sports in Scranton, Pa. donor who is co-hosting one of many summertime fundraisers in the Hamptons. “So there are events to attract anybody who’s interested in being a supporter for Hillary.”

Clinton has some heavyweight assistants on the cash trail, including two former presidents, husband Bill Clinton and President Barack Obama.

“If we are not running scared until the day after the election, we are going to be making a grave mistake,” Obama warned donors on a balmy Monday evening in Martha’s Vineyard.

Running mate Tim Kaine has proved to a strong fundraiser in his own right, already headlining a dozen events from small towns in New Hampshire to the private dining space of a celebrity chef in New Orleans.

Fort Lauderdale attorney Mitchell Berger, who hosted Kaine’s first fundraiser after he was picked as Clinton’s running mate, said some of the 60 donors in the room hadn’t met the Virginia senator. “For the people who were seeing him for the first time, the glowing previews were confirmed,” Berger said.

Clinton has made ample use of campaign finance limits

that have loosened considerably in the past six years.

Although donors can give a maximum of $2,700 to the candidate’s campaign, they can give far more to the party through new accounts that Congress opened up. And a Supreme Court ruling in 2014 lifted the overall cap on what donors can give in an election year – meaning Clinton and the party have no reservations about asking for as much as they can.

At least five August events have hit the seven-figure benchmark. Among them, a 60-person dinner where the minimum gift was $33,400 in an “estates only” area of Greenwich, Connecticut.

Last week, Clinton’s cash express stopped in Miami Beach for two events. The larger one included 100 attendees donating at least $2,700. Later that evening, Clinton hosted a more intimate group of 30, each of whom gave at least $50,000.

Clinton’s labors on the fundraising circuit have kept her ahead of Republican rival Donald Trump. But he unexpectedly came close to rivaling her haul in July, raising more than $80 million for his campaign and supportive Republican Party groups.

Term limits ad already tops $1M An organization controlled by Gov. Bruce Rauner has spent $1 million on a new television ad promoting legislative term limits in a little over a week. And that’s just for starters.

Turnaround Illinois Inc. is one of those “dark money” nonprofit groups that doesn’t have to disclose its donors. It has so far booked $1,015,084 in broadcast, satellite and cable TV ads. The group bought $684,455 in broadcast TV ads scheduled to run from Aug. 5 through Aug. 14. The biggest chunk of the money, $344,850, was spent on very expensive Chicago broadcast TV spots. All the ad buys are expected to be renewed.

Rauner’s TV ad features several “real people” talking about the need for term limits. Rauner has also set up a website where folks can “sign” an electronic petition supporting the idea. One of the people appearing in the ad exhorts watchers to help them get “a million signatures.”

Before the ads appeared, Rauner spent several days touring the state demanding that House and Senate Democrats come back after the election and pass a term limits constitutional amendment, which wouldn’t be voted on by the public until 2018. Rauner himself appears at the end of the ad to say, “Let’s all sign the term limits petition. Go to FixIllinois.com.”

Yes, the issue is pretty much solely political and more than a bit phony. Even if the Legislature passed a term limits proposal this November (and it won’t), the limits wouldn’t actually get in front of voters for two more years and then wouldn’t start limiting terms for another 10 years. By that time, House Speaker Madigan will be 86 years old, and he could still run for a state Senate seat. But, hey, the House Democrats are notorious for using federal issues such as Medicare and Social Security in state legislative races, so, whatever. It is what it is.

Rauner’s group also paid $130,820 for St. Louis broadcast television, even though most of those viewers live in Missouri. Illinois candidates often skip St. Louis broadcast entirely or wait until late in the game to air any ads because they aren’t very cost-efficient. You always know somebody has big bucks to throw around when they go up on St. Louis TV, and it’s practically unheard of in early August.

The Rauner organization also plunked down $32,000 for broadcast ads in the Champaign-Springfield-Decatur market; $73,000 in the Quad Cities (where Democratic Rep. Mike Smiddy is attempting to hold onto his seat); $57,000 in the already crowded (with state legislative ads) Paducah, Kentucky market; $21,000 in

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Rich Miller Quincy and $25,000 in Peoria.

In addition, Rauner has dumped $207,000 on satellite TV ads through Aug. 25 and appears to have added to his initial $21,989 cable TV buy with $101,640 more through Aug. 14. The cable buy locations line up with suburban and downstate Democratic legislative districts that Rauner’s political organization has targeted.

So what is going on here? First and foremost, Rauner needs to improve his own polling numbers, both for his 2018 re-election and, more immediately, so his involvement can be of some use to his Republican legislative candidates this fall.

A recent poll conducted for Democratic U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth’s U.S. Senate campaign found that Rauner’s job approval rating was just 37 percent, with a disapproval of 55 percent. “He’s been sitting around there for all of 2016, so opinions are hardening,” said a source familiar with the poll’s findings.

Rauner’s people counter with their own poll numbers, which they say have Rauner’s approve/disapprove rating at 44-49.

Either way, Rauner has to start moving numbers his direction to have a positive impact on this year’s election.

The term limits issue polls off the charts in this state, so firmly attaching himself to the proposal in an unprecedented and sustained advertising buy will likely help.

Seventh-eight percent supported the idea in a poll taken Feb. 15 to 20 by the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute.

The information-gathering aspect of this term limits push also can’t be ignored. Rauner has reportedly put his trusted lieutenant Chip Englander in charge of his data project. All his legislative races are gathering lots of data and it’s being pooled in one spot. Building on Rauner’s 2014 race, and adding this year’s data (including from those who sign up online for the term limits pledge) the Illinois GOP could be “among the nation’s elite in data” for 2018, predicted a Republican insider. “Maybe the top.”

And regardless of which poll is accurate, he’s gonna need every bit of help he can muster, both this year and during the next cycle.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Great public servants in Joliet

To the Editor: In our rotten, unsettled and turmoil-ridden world, we should always be mindful and thankful that our Joliet community truly has a wonderfully dedicated group of police and firefighters, and paramedics who serve and protect in every sense.

These ladies and gentlemen undoubtedly and unquestionably sacrifice their lives and well-being in order to proactively protect all of our freedoms on a daily basis.

Let us all take a few minutes to express our sincere thanks to these incredible public servants.

David Marco Joliet

I don’t get no respect

To the Editor: I am no political strategist, but I know right from wrong.

Apathetic, egomaniacal, know-it-all judges and city/state’s attorneys.

Lazy, unfeeling VA bureaucrats. School administrators abusing the public and fellow educators for personal monetary gain.

Any average citizen who has been unfortunate enough to experience our court system knows that you are guilty until proved innocent.

I had a sister and a daughter who died after being denied disability and continuing to wade through the system’s red-tape nightmare.

My dad was a World War II veteran who fought in the Battle of the Bulge,

was wounded and received several military decorations. He had to fight a second battle against lazy, bloated bureaucrats to receive his benefits.

The system is broken from head to toe.

Hillary says “it’s all about the kids.”

It’s definitely not all about the adults.

Not an endorsement, but Trump says what we are all thinking.

Why Trump? Why not?

I would bet his huge fortune he’s only a four-year president.

The difference between Hillary and Trump is that one is a diamondback and one is a sidewinder. It’s time to go to Plan B, America. And I’m not talking about Medicare. Don’t get me started.

Term limits not needed

To the Editor: Gov. Bruce Rauner (and much of the Illinois Republican Party) keep telling us we need term limits on legislators to prevent corruption and ensure career politicians don’t end up running the state.

While this sounds like a good idea, term limits will eliminate good legislators along with bad ones. Citizens deserve the right to the best representation, and kicking legislators out of office because of an arbitrary term limit means that we may end up with second-rate lawmakers.

“We have the opportunity to go up against a top-ranked defense every day and that’s going to really prepare us for what we’re going to see. Not making the playoffs was a great motivator and we’re not satisfied with being conference co-champions. Our slogan is E.A.T. We’re always giving effort, I

love the attitude and I trust everyone on this team. This is the year that it will all mesh for us and we’re going to be a threat in the NAIA.” They all will be responsible for giving quarterback Don Butkus plenty of time to throw the football, as well as providing effective blocking for the mix of backs that USF will use.

liet Catholic and Lincoln-Way Central all shot 319 and finished 1-2-3 after the tiebreaker was applied at Monday’s Plainfield North Invite. Jason White led Central with a 77, good for eighth place.

Getting off to a fast start offensively will be critical for a Saints program that finished ranked 18th in the final regular season poll but just missed receiving a berth in the NAIA playoffs.

But that will be a challenge since USF opens with three-straight road games. The No. 17 Saints open with No. 10 Saint Xavier, meet up with a ranked Division III squad at Wisconsin-Platteville and travel to St. Louis to face Missouri Baptist before hosting Robert Morris on Sept. 24 in their initial contest at Memorial Stadium.

We have a lot of returning guys as well as a lot of young guys who can play. I feel confident that anybody that we put out there right now can do the job. We have a lot of guys who can step up.

“We don’t really have any games off and I know that everybody is looking forward to our first game. But we still have to take it one practice at a time and one play at a time. Being out there, you can feel when everybody’s clicking and kind of on the same flow. When we found out last season that we weren’t going to make the playoffs, that was a big motivator for the offseason. It was always in the back of our heads.”

RIO DE JANEIRO – The U.S. women’s volleyball team continued to roll over competition at the Summer Olympics on Tuesday, scoring a 3-0 (25-16, 25-23, 25-22) victory over Japan.

The Americans, with Joliet Catholic graduate Kelly Murphy continuing to shine from her opposite position, advanced into Thursday’s semifinals, where Serbia, which ousted Russia in straight sets in the quarterfinals, will be the opponent.

Serbia lost in four sets to the U.S. during pool play but pulled off a surprising five-set victory at last year’s World Cup in Japan last August that forced the Americans to qualify for Rio at Lincoln, Nebraska, in January.

Kim Hill led the U.S. with 15 points against Japan and Jordan Larson chipped in 14.

26 VOLLEYBALL: REED-CUSTER

Cinderella lives in Reed-Custer volleyball

By KAITLYN JASNICA

kjasnica@shawmedia.com BRAIDWOOD – Not many girls wanted to even try out for the 2015 Reed-Custer volleyball team. But who could blame them?

Reed-Custer had just come off of a 3-27 season, and that was an improvement from a 2-28 showing in 2013.

What they did next surprised a lot of people. The Comets had their best season since 2002 with a 17-13-2 record.

“It was a really big accomplishment for Reed-Custer because over the years, we really did have a bad record,” senior outside hitter Kassidy Barr said. “We really came together as a team and added a new coach. It turned out a lot better for us.”

Coach Kelly Van Duyne was not discouraged by the previous records when she entered the season. She came in with the mentality that the program would turn around.

As a first-year coach, Van Duyne decided to take the program in a different direction. She recently had left an assistant coaching position at University of St. Francis due to the conflict between traveling and spending time with family.

When she started at the high school

level, her style of coaching remained the same.

“When I came in, I considered them as a college volleyball team,” Van Duyne said. “That’s the only way I knew to coach, so that’s the way that I taught them. They were willing to do it. They were accepting to do it. I came in and they totally did a 180. We ended up going 17-13-2. We won tournaments where they never saw the final round before. It was a very exciting season.”

One of the largest reasons for the successful record was that Van Duyne focused on discipline, team skills and team bonding.

Van Duyne preaches the talent was there all along with the program. The Comets were unsuccessful in previous years because they had been playing as individuals and focused on individual skill. She made that change quickly.

The players bought in and started playing like a unit. The simple change of mentality altered the Comets’ season and attitude.

They started winning and all the players developed a new drive. They wanted to win for themselves, for their school and for their new coach.

Every day, they came onto the court and worked even harder because they

wanted to keep winning.

That drive started to get people’s attention.

“Once we won our first game, it was addicting. It was a big thing because we hadn’t won in so long,” junior outside hitter Madilyn Alton said. “In previous years, we didn’t have many wins. That number gave us a positive attitude. We kept that going throughout the season.”

“It started going around social media that we were winning our games,” Barr said. “Our fan section kept growing larger. We had more and more fans each time. People started talking about the games and about how good we were.”

And the girls hope that people will continue to talk about how good they are. Going into the season, all the girls trained hard to keep their Cinderella story going.

They don’t plan on being a onehit wonder. In the summer, all levels trained hard and focused on the same things: team skill, not individual.

Despite graduating a few of their top players, they have a very positive outlook.

“I think this season will be just as good, if not better,” Barr said. “We added Emily Wolf and she’s a strong

The Cubs’ Jason Hammel (12-5) was to face fellow right-hander Chase Anderson (7-10) in the second game.

Cahill was a 2010 All-Star before consecutive 200-inning seasons with Oakland. But the right-hander struggled in Arizona, started three games for Atlanta in April last year, moved

to the bullpen and was released before signing with the Cubs.

He was a reliever until going on the disabled list with right knee tendinitis. But Cahill was stretched out in a rehab assignment and had good command in his first big league appearance since July 9.

CHICAGO – Jason Hammel threw seven innings of two-hit ball, Anthony Rizzo jumped onto a wall to make a remarkable catch of a foul ball, and the Cubs beat the banged-up Milwaukee Brewers, 4-1, on Tuesday night to sweep a day-night doubleheader.

Javier Baez hit a two-run homer while Hammel (13-5) struck out seven to extend his scoreless streak to 22 innings.

Rizzo wowed the fans when the first baseman jumped on the wall with both feet, leaned into the crowd and made a one-handed grab of Keon Broxton’s popup.

In the opener, Trevor Cahill came off the disabled list to throw five innings of two-hit ball in his first start in nearly 16 months in the Cubs’ 4-0 win.

Kluber wins 4th straight start as Indians beat White Sox

By STEVE HERRICK The Associated Press

CLEVELAND – Corey Kluber allowed one run in six innings to win his fourth consecutive start on Tuesday, and the Cleveland Indians defeated the White Sox for the seventh straight time, 3-1.

Kluber (13-8) struck out seven and walked two, allowing his only run on Justin Morenau’s one-out homer in the sixth. Kluber is 5-0 with a 1.80 ERA in seven starts since a July 3 loss at Toronto.

Andrew Miller retired six straight batters, and Cody Allen pitched a perfect ninth for his 23rd save in 25 chances to complete a seven-hitter.

Cleveland opened a six-game lead over second-place Detroit in the AL Central. The Indians have outscored the Sox by a combined 36-13 in their last seven meetings.

Jose Quintana (9-9) lost for the first time since June 28, giving up two runs and seven hits in six innings. He had been 4-0 in his previous seven starts.

The Sox’s Todd Frazier was 0 for 4 with four strikeouts.

Nice game: Cleveland 3B Jose Ramirez made a diving backhanded stop near the line on one hop of a ball hit by Omar Narvaez and threw him out in the fourth. Ramirez laid on his back with a broad smile to celebrate the play.

Manager Robin Ventura said he could be activated as soon as Thursday.

CHICAGO – John Lackey’s right shoulder still was sore when he arrived at Wrigley Field. Trevor Cahill then proved the Cubs have options if they need another starting pitcher.

Cahill came off the disabled list to throw five innings of two-hit ball in his first start in nearly 16 months, and the Cubs beat the Milwaukee Brewers, 4-0, Tuesday in the opener of a daynight doubleheader.

“He gave us something to talk about,” manager Joe Maddon said.

Lackey is nursing an injury that forced him to leave Sunday’s start and will be pushed back until at least Saturday.

Mike Montgomery followed Cahill and pitched two innings, Hector Rondon worked the eighth and Joe Smith walked two in the ninth before Aroldis Chapman got two outs to close a three-hitter.

Cahill (2-3) also drove in a run with a safety squeeze bunt, and the Cubs added runs on a wild pitch and Addison Russell’s sacrifice fly off Matt Garza (4-5).

Cahill allowed two walks and struck out Manny Pina with a runner on third to end the fifth on his 84th pitch.

“He had really good stuff,” Maddon

Bears receiver Kevin White walks off the field Thursday after a preseason game against the Denver Broncos in Chicago.

The Broncos defeated the Bears, 22-0.

Kevin White puts on a show in Bears-Patriots practice BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush

WRs White and Jeffery made big catches against the Patriots’ secondary FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Saying the 2016 Chicago Bears offense is a work in progress is kind of like announcing Bill Belichick is a good football coach.

No kidding!

But while the offensive line will be a question mark well into the regular season, there’s no real telling what they have at running back until the offensive line improves and tight end just isn’t going to be a strength, there is something happening to the wide receiver corps in Foxborough.

Forget that Alshon Jeffery actually showed some emotion in a “baseball fight” with Malcolm Butler on Monday, through two full days of practice he has been the best player on the field from either team, with the exception, of course, of Tom Brady, and perhaps

even Kevin White.

Jeffery has gone strong and hard through two full, physical practices with no soft tissue concerns, and has been unstoppable for the Pats.

But you know Jeffery could, you’re just never sure if he will.

The bigger revelation here at “Camp Belichick & Fox” has been White. You can argue that the second-year player selected with the seventh overall pick in last year’s draft is seeing his first legitimate NFL test facing one of the NFL’s best teams here in what have been surprisingly physical and extremely competitive practices.

On Tuesday, White won the day, as he did a lot of the dirty work underneath while Jeffery challenged the secondary, and White looked like a seasoned pro.

John Fox was reserved in his praise, saying, “They’re both very, very talented players. Being out here practicing where they get that timing with the quarterback and the rest of the offensive teammates, the better.”

Referring to their health issues, Fox added, “We’ve had a little bit of a string there, knock on wood. But when healthy, they’re both very capable.”

This was one of those days, though,

where Foxy’s quotes didn’t do justice to the gleam in his eye.

Talking specifically about the impact of White’s lost rookie season, Fox added, “I think there’s some rust. I think anytime someone doesn’t practice and play, we have to bring the WD40 out and spray the rust off.

“I’m seeing progress with him getting back into football condition.”

Most impressive about White in Tuesday’s practice was the route-running and physicality he displayed in matchups with Patriots starting corners Butler, Logan Ryan and nickel Justin Coleman.

Running primarily inside slants, short curls and button hooks underneath, for arguably the first time this summer, White looked more like a receiver than an athlete against one of the league’s better defenses.

Make no mistake, White still has a great deal of work to do to demonstrate he’s grasped the whole route tree, but the consistency with which he made plays in traffic vs. Butler and Logan should not be ignored.

It is also hard to imagine after watching practice No. 2 between the Patriots and Bears that Josh Bellamy hasn’t already secured a spot on the roster.

Bellamy proved himself an invaluable special teams presence last year, has had a very good summer to date and for whatever reason he’s been consistently behind the secondary in training camp more than any other receiver.

Bellamy did it again vs. the Patriots, getting wide open deep twice for two touchdowns on Tuesday.

The two other receivers who’ve stood out throughout camp are Marc Mariani – wide receivers coach Curtis Johnson says, “I love, absolutely love him” – and seventh-round pick Daniel Braverman, although Braverman has looked more like a seventh-rounder here in New England.

Beyond so much good news for Jay Cutler and Dowell Loggains, the upshot of all this could be bad news for Eddie Royal.

Mariani appears to have made the team and as much as the Bears would probably love to sneak Braverman through to the practice squad, it seems unlikely they could.

The Bears aren’t going to keep three slot receivers and having missed over two weeks and counting with concussion issues, the veteran Royal is looking more and more like the odd man out.

AUTO RACING: INDYCAR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONG POND, Pa. – Dale Coyne Racing of Plainfield announced Tuesday that Conor Daly will drive the No. 88 in Sunday’s IndyCar race at Pocono Raceway to honor the memory of Bryan Clauson.

Clauson died Aug. 8 from in-

juries suffered in an open-wheel accident in Kansas.

Clauson finished 23rd in the Indianapolis 500 in May in the No. 88 for Jonathan Byrd’s Racing.

“Honored to carry the initials of a legend on the side of our car this weekend. Let’s ride,” Daly posted on Twitter.

DCR also announced that Pippa Mann will drive the No. 19, and her helmet will have the “BC Still Chasing 200” logo on it in Clauson’s honor.

Clauson, one of the top dirt racers in America, was chasing USAC’s all-time wins mark and was well on his way to compete in 200 events this season.

GOLF: ON THE FRINGE

Olympic medals, and memories, last a lifetime

By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press

Rose didn’t show up at Olympic Golf Course, work on his putting and chipping, post the lowest score over 72 holes and go home with the golden prize.

He took in the full Olympic experience. He felt part of the British nation of athletes and wanted to do his part. He was among five British athletes to win gold on Sunday. His appeal went beyond golf, beyond sport, to an Olympic audience that reaches all corners of the globe.

So many other Olympians don’t have the Masters or the PGA Championship to look forward to next year. One mistake, one false start, one slip and the next chance at glory is four years.

That’s made golfers appreciate what they have.

“We should never complain again,” two-time Masters champion Bubba Watson said. “We’re always going to complain about three-putts, but we should never complain about what we have and what we don’t have and all these things. We’re so blessed.

When you look at these other countries, and these athletes that train for years – not just hours, years – and they got 30 seconds or they got a minute or they got under 10 seconds. And I get to show up at Augusta every year from now on because I won there.

“So it’s humbling, for sure,” he said. “This is the greatest thing I’ve ever done.”

And he didn’t even leave with a medal.

Rose did, and his biggest dilemma is what to do with his Olympic gold.

“Maybe I’ll get a little mannequin with a podium jacket for it,” he said.

He only knew he didn’t have to give it back.

RIO DE JANEIRO – The moment felt as historic as it gets in women’s golf.

Stacy Lewis won the Women’s British Open at St. Andrews with a birdie-birdie finish, the last one set up by a classic links shot when she used a putter from 40 yards short of the green to get through the famous Valley of Sin. She was beaming as she posed with the trophy on the 18th green at the Home of Golf.

And that was the last she saw of it.

“They take your picture, and then they take it from you, and you get a three-quarter-sized replica in the mail,” Lewis said Tuesday morning.

She laughed at the memory from 2013, and there was a point behind it as Lewis prepared for what she considers the biggest opportunity of her career.

Olympic medals are forever.

“After you win a medal, what do you do? You take it home with you,” Lewis said. “You don’t ever have to give it back.”

One week of golf’s most excellent Olympic adventure hasn’t solved the question that has lingered over the sport even before it was allowed back into the Olympic family, at least through the Tokyo Games in 2020.

Is it the pinnacle of sport?

Is Olympic gold more valuable than Augusta green?

That no longer seems relevant.

Justin Rose was in the best position to provide an answer because he now has one of each – the silver U.S. Open trophy from Merion in 2013, an Olympic gold medal from his victory Sunday at Olympic Golf Course

that came down to the very last shot.

There is no comparison, and there doesn’t need to be.

“I think they should live in separate columns and different worlds,” Rose said. “Obviously, major championships right now have all the history. But I feel like this was an opportunity not to be missed. I feel like it resonated far wider than maybe my U.S. Open victory.”

Golf careers are not defined by the Olympics. Not yet. Probably not ever.

It was not part of the Olympic program when Bobby Jones was feted with a ticker-tape parade in New York for his “impregnable quadrilateral” of winning the British Open, British Amateur, U.S. Open and U.S. Amateur in 1930. There was no talk of Olympic gold when Arnold Palmer cooked up the notion of the modern Grand Slam in 1960, or when Jack Nicklaus set the gold standard in golf with his 18 professional majors.

That’s too much history to catch.

Golf has been its own tiny village, and it was invited into a much larger world of sport in Rio, where all athletes are respected equally.

If anything, golfers had to earn their place.

Padraig Harrington couldn’t wait to see table tennis when he arrived at the Olympics, and he was asked whether he considered table tennis players to be athletes.

“I’ve never questioned whether a table tennis player is an athlete. I believe they are.

Fantastic athletes,” he said. “I would even put them before golf. You don’t see too many overweight, smoking table tennis players.”

The United States’ Simone Biles performs on the floor Tuesday during the artistic gymnastics women’s apparatus final at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Biles wins floor exercise for record-tying fourth gold

By WILL GRAVES AP Sports Writer

RIO DE JANEIRO – The Simone Show went out in style. And gold.

Again.

Simone Biles put the finishing touches on one of the greatest Olympics by a gymnast, capturing her fourth gold of the games with an electric performance in the floor exercise on Tuesday.

The 19-year-old American completed an extraordinary stretch that included a team gold for the “Final Five” as well as individual golds in the all-around and vault and bronze on balance beam. Her five medals tie the most for an American female gymnast in a single Olympics, and her four golds tie an Olympic record shared by four others.

“It’s been a long journey,” Biles said. “I’ve enjoyed every single mo-

ment of it. I know our team has. It’s been very long in competing so many times. It got tiring. But we just wanted to end on a good note.”

Biles embraced her longtime coach shortly after her routine – which includes a tumbling pass named in her honor and a Brazilian-themed segment intended to play to the crowd in Rio – and beamed when her score of 15.966 was posted.

Teammate Aly Raisman followed with a 15.500 to give her a third medal during Rio and six overall in her Olympic career. The 22-year-old team captain – who was second in the allaround to Biles last week – waved to the stands as she walked off the floor, likely for the final time as a competitor.

The medals gave the American women nine during the meet, the most ever by the U.S. at an Olympics.

Amy Tinkler of Great Britain

earned bronze, though the day – and really the Olympics – belong to Biles.

While she admitted she was a bit tired on Monday after her only one real mistake of the games – a wobbly landing on beam that cost her a shot at gold – Biles didn’t look it during her signature event.

Buoyant in a glittery red, white and blue leotard, Biles spent 90 seconds showcasing her talent. She doesn’t tumble so much as fly, her 4-foot-8 frame soaring over the white mat as if she was trying to touch the video board three stories above. She plans to take a break following the closing ceremonies and try to adjust to a life that will never be the same after nine days that elevated her from gymnastics’ best-kept secret to star.

American Danell Leyva matched Biles and Raisman with a pair of medals of his own, taking silver on both the parallel bars and high bar.

Youngest U.S. track Olympian since ’72 doesn’t advance

Sydney McLaughlin can get back to the homework that’s due before the end of the summer. The youngest U.S. track and field Olympian since 1972 did not advance to the final of the 400-meter hurdles.

McLaughlin, a 17-year-old from Dunellen, New Jersey, was fifth in her 400-meter hurdles semifinal Tuesday night at the Rio Games, finishing in 56.22 seconds.

The top two runners in each semifinal automatically qualify for the final, along

Jamaica’s Usain Bolt competes in a men’s 200-meter heat during the athletics competitions of the 2016 Summer Olympics Tuesday at the Olympic stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. on this emotion-packed day, there were no medals on the line when long jumper Darya Klishina finally showed up at the Olympics. During warmups, Klishina unzipped her jacket and revealed a red shirt with the word “Russia” emblazoned in bright white lettering. She’s the only athlete wearing that uniform at this stadium, due to a doping scandal that led to the ban of Russia’s other 67 track and field entrants.

Never introduced by the PA announcer, or cheered by the crowd, Klishina jumped 6.64 meters to make it through qualifying and will have a chance for a medal Wednesday.

“Last week, it was a really tough and really hard week for me mentally . I was waiting for the decision and I could not practice, I just did warmup,” she said. “I would like to have a big Russian team around me, as usual, but unfortunately I’m here alone, and this is a great responsibility.”

But there was more bad news for the Russians. Around the time the evening session began, the International Olympic Committee stripped Russia’s 2008 women’s 4x100 relay team of its gold medal, saying one of the sprinters tested positive in one of the many samples being reanalyzed this summer.

Back on the field, the sparse morning crowd saw one shocker: Brazilian Fabiana Murer was expected to contend for a pole vault medal, which would’ve gone nicely with the surprise gold that Thiago Braz da Silva won in the men’s competition the night before. But Murer, the silver medalist at world championships last

year, couldn’t clear 4.55 meters in her first three attempts and was gone before noon.

Da Silva’s return to the stadium for the medals ceremony reignited an ugly episode from the previous night. The French runner-up, Renaud Lavillenie, was roundly booed when his name was announced for the silver medal, much the way he heard jeers the night before as he prepared for the jump that decided the meet.

Only a blip. The Olympic spirit was alive and well, and no story told it better than this: Midway through women’s 5,000-meter qualifying, American Abbey D’Agostino and New Zealander Nikki Hamblin got tangled and fell hard onto the track.

Hamblin laid there, dazed. D’Agostino popped back up. But instead of forging ahead, she walked over to Hamblin, put a hand on her shoulder and said, “Get up.

We have to finish this,” then hoisted her to her feet to restart the run.

Turned out, D’Agostino took the worst of it, hobbled because she had hurt her ankle. So, when Hamblin got to the finish, she waited for her new friend, where they exchanged a warm hug before the American got carted off in a wheelchair.

“I’m never going to forget that moment,” Hamblin said. “When someone asks me what happened in Rio in 20 years’ time, that’s my story.”

Hours later, race officials sent out a simple alert: The Track Referee, after examining the video of the race, was advancing both women into Friday’s final.

They offered no explanation. They really didn’t have to.

Will Claye kept a close watch on his backpack while he competed in the Olympic triple jump.

With good reason: It had a diamond ring in it.

Moments after earning a silver medal Tuesday, Claye bounded into the stands, dropped to a knee and proposed to his longtime girlfriend, hurdler Queen Harrison.

She said yes.

A medal and a marriage proposal – now that’s quite a day.

“When I woke up this morning I was like, ‘Today is going to be the best day of my life,’” said Claye, who finished behind good friend Christian Taylor, as the two Americans went 1-2 for a second straight Summer Games. “I’m going to go out there and do what I have to do on the track first and I am going to make her my fiancée after that.”

Brazil’s Robson Conceicao wins historic boxing gold at home

RIO DE JANEIRO – Robson Conceicao couldn’t step up onto a medal podium without thinking about where his climb began.

His mind is never far from his impoverished neighborhood, where he discovered and honed a boxing talent that finally lifted him all the way into Brazilian sports history.

The lightweight won Brazil’s first Olympic boxing gold medal Tuesday night, delighting a frenzied home audience with a unanimous decision over France’s Sofiane Oumiha.

RIO DE JANEIRO – The repeat onetwo American finish in the triple jump, the Jamaican gold medal in hurdles and Jenny Simpson’s unprecedented bronze in the 1,500 meters were only part of the story in Olympic track and field Tuesday – and maybe not the best part.

The midpoint of the nine-day program at Olympic Stadium was a day for diamond rings and making friends, a oneof-a-kind Russian hello and a surprising Brazilian farewell. And, of course, a daily dose of doping news that was more than offset by a speedy cameo from Usain Bolt.

Bolt was on the track early for his 200-meter qualifying heat – a no-fuss 20.28-second ramble around the curve that barely raised his blood pressure.

“I’m not an early-morning person,” Bolt proclaimed, shortly after winning his heat, which actually started at the crack of 12:46 p.m.

But morning seemed like the perfect time for American Will Claye to put an exclamation point on one of his greatest moments. Newly minted with his second straight Olympic silver medal in the triple jump – countryman Christian Taylor won gold, also just as in 2012 – Clay clambered over the barrier separating the track from the stands, climbed a few rows to meet his girlfriend, bent down on one knee and popped the question.

Queen Harrison, an Olympic hurdler in 2008, said yes.

“When I woke up this morning, I was like, ‘Today’s going to be the best day of my life,’” Claye said.

Omar McLeod certainly felt the same.

His 13.05-second trip across the 110-meter hurdles course in the evening’s final event made it three gold medals on the straightaway for Jamaica so far. He beat Orlando Ortega of Spain by .12 seconds.

Dimitri Bascou of France took third, and University of Oregon receiver Devon Allen finished fifth.

In the evening’s other big race, Faith Kipyegon finished the women’s 1,500 meters in 4 minutes, 8.92 seconds to beat out Genzebe Dibaba, a flip-flop from last year’s world championships. Jenny Simpson took bronze to become the first American woman to medal in the event.

Other gold medalists were high jumper Derek Drouin of Canada and discus thrower Sandra Perkovic of Croatia, who twice was a single throw from elimination but came through both times and defended her Olympic title.

Yet, like many of the best moments

FOOD

Salsa can mix up dinner for family night

By DORIE GREENSPAN The Washington Post

I probably serve salsa twice a week, particularly in warmer weather. I make mango salsa for chicken and roasted salmon, avocado salsa for all kinds of grilled fish, strawberry salsa for beets and mozzarella, and bell pepper-celery salsa for just about everything.

Those are all what I think of as pick-up dishes: I pick up whatever’s in the refrigerator or ripening on the counter; cut it into small dice; add onion, tomatoes, seasonings, herbs if I’ve got them, a little oil and a lot of citrus juice or vinegar. I never measure. I always taste as I go. And I never make the same thing exactly the same way twice.

I also have never made salsa’s fresh and less-juicy cousin, pico de gallo, which is Spanish for “rooster’s beak.” Or if I did, I didn’t know I was doing it. In fact, I hadn’t thought about the fresh relish since forever, and then I had it three days in a row and wanted to have it every day thereafter.

At home, I put my latest salsa over freekeh, of course, and also over quinoa and brown rice. All good.

But my favorite combo was grilled corn tortilla, shredded cabbage or lettuce, avocado mash, shrimp sautéed with Old Bay Seasoning and lime, with the pineapple salsa.

Whatever you do, do it casually. You could make up the tortillas or wraps in the kitchen, but I wouldn’t.

Put out all the colorful ingredients on the table and get messy. It’s part of what makes this dish so appealing and family-friendly.

Dorie Greenspan’s Shrimp and Tomato-Pineapple Salsa Tacos 4 servings

For the salsa 12 ounces grape tomatoes or ripe Roma tomatoes 1/2 to 2/3 cup diced or chopped red onion (from 1/2 medium onion), rinsed in cold water and patted dry (see headnote) 1/2 cup seeded, diced or chopped red bell pepper (from 1/2

Squirt fresh lime juice, or more as needed

pepper) 1/3 cup chopped fresh pineapple 2 cloves garlic (germ removed), minced 1/4 seeded jalapeno pepper, minced, or more as needed 1½ tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 1 to 2 limes), or more as needed 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, or more as needed Hot sauce (optional) 1/2 cup finely chopped cilantro For the avocado mash Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lime, or more as needed Fine sea salt 1/4-inch slice seeded jalapeño pepper, minced Flesh of 2 ripe avocados For the shrimp 1 pound medium or large raw shrimp (defrosted if frozen), peeled, deveined and patted dry 1½ tablespoons olive oil Pinch Old Bay Seasoning or chili powder, or more as needed Pinch fine sea salt, or more as needed

For the salsa: If you’re using grape tomatoes, cut each one into quarters. For larger tomatoes, hull them, cut them in half then cut them into large dice.

Toss the tomatoes and whatever juices are on the cutting board into a mixing bowl. Add the red onion (to taste), red bell pepper, pineapple, garlic, jalapeño, lime juice and the salt; toss to incorporate; taste and add more jalapeño, lime juice, salt and hot sauce, if using.

For the avocado mash: Combine the lime zest and juice in a medium bowl, then stir in a pinch of salt and the jalapeño.

Add the avocado and press with a fork to form a chunky mash, making sure the juice is well distributed.

For the shrimp: Toss together the shrimp, oil, Old Bay Seasoning or chili powder, salt and lime juice in a medium bowl.

Heat a large skillet, preferably nonstick, over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp mixture; cook, turning the shrimp once, just until they are pink, opaque and cooked through, 3 to 6 minutes (depending on how cold they were). Turn off the heat.

Wash and dry the bowl the raw shrimp were in; return the cooked shrimp to that bowl and squeeze a little lime juice over them.

When ready to serve, put separate bowls of the salsa, avocado mash, shrimp, tortillas or romaine leaves, shredded lettuce and hot sauce on the table. Just before serving, stir the cilantro into the salsa.

For healthy back-to-school cooking, try a foil pack in the oven

By MELISSA D’ARABIAN The Associated Press

Social media tells me in part of the country, kids already are back to school. And so we are teetering between the lazy days of summer and the impending promise of crisp cool air, long sleeves and the desire to fire down the grill and turn on the oven instead.

This is the perfect time to talk about one of my favorite shoulder-season cooking strategies: the foil pack.

Place thinly sliced veggies with a little marinade or vinaigrette (even storebought will work) in a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil and fold shut into a packet, pinching the edges, and this handy little guy will be equal-

ly delicious whether cooked on the grill if you have a hot fall day, or in the oven, if you’re already in pumpkin latte weather.

Add some fish or chicken, and you’ll have a full meal, all packaged and pretty in individual servings, a presentation which thrills dinner party guests and kiddos alike.

Foil-Pack Fish Tacos Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 4

Juice of 1 lime, about 2 tablespoons 3 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon chili powder 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 1 teaspoon granulated garlic

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt 4 fillets of Alaskan cod, frozen, about 4-5 ounces each 1 yellow onion, sliced thinly (about 2 cups) 2 sweet peppers (red, yellow, or orange), sliced thinly (about 2 cups total) Spicy slaw topping: 2 cups chopped or sliced cabbage 1/4 cup plain Greek lowfat yogurt 1 tablespoon mayonnaise 1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder 1 tablespoon lime juice 1 chopped green onion 1/4 cup chopped cilantro Chopped tomatoes, for garnish (optional) Salt and pepper 8 corn tortillas, for serving Cubed avocado, for garnish

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl, mix together the lime juice, olive oil, chili powder, cumin and granulated garlic. Cut four 12-inch-by-12-inch pieces of heavy duty foil. Dip the fish into the marinade and set aside.

Toss the onion and peppers in the marinade to coat, and divide among the foil squares. Place the fish on top. Then toss the tomatoes into the marinade and place on top of the fish, along with any remaining marinade. Close the foil into packets, crimping the edges together.

Place on a baking sheet and bake until fish is cooked through and vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes. (Subtract 10 minutes if using fresh fish).

Meanwhile, mix together all the ingredients for the spicy slaw topping. Serve one foil packet a person, along with corn tortillas, slaw for topping and avocado if desired.

percent. The A1C level reflects blood sugar control over the prior three months.

The two drug classes that are most likely to cause hypoglycemia are the insulins and the sulfonylureas. Ask your doctor whether it makes sense to change your medicine or to reduce your dose.

Learn to recognize and respond to the symptoms of low blood sugar. Symptoms of hypoglycemia may include: • Nervousness • Weakness • Hunger • Lightheadedness or dizziness • Trembling • Sweating • Rapid heartbeat • Feeling cold and clammy • Irritability • Confusion • Drowsiness • Slurred speech • Double vision • In severe cases, loss of consciousness, seizures and even coma.

At the moment you think you are experiencing hypoglycemia, you need to eat or drink some sugar (fruit juice, regular soda, milk) that will reach your bloodstream quickly. You can expect relief 10 to 15 minutes after eating the sugar.

But first, contact your doctor to find out if your symptoms really are from low blood sugar.

Dear Dr. K: I’m in my early 80s. I recently was put on a new type of medication for Type 2 diabetes. Since then, I’ve felt lightheaded a few times and also have fallen twice. Could my blood sugar be dropping too low? What should I do?

Dear Reader: Yes, your blood sugar could be dropping too low. If you’re in your early 80s, you might be at extra risk, because people at that age often have multiple chronic medical conditions.

It’s impossible for the doctor to predict exactly how an individual will respond to a new medicine. It may be this new medicine is having a stronger effect in you than it does in most people. So you absolutely should contact your doctor.

There’s something else to consider. For many years, the goal in treating diabetes has been to get blood sugar as low as possible. The stronger the medicine, or the stronger the dose, the more likely it is the sugar may go too low.

New studies in recent years challenge the value of trying to push blood sugar as low as possible, particularly in older people with the most common type of diabetes, Type 2. The studies find less benefit from having blood sugars as low as possible in older people. Why? Because health benefits from tight control come many years later.

In contrast, the dangers from blood sugar dropping too low (hypoglycemia) start right away. Those dangers include falls, fractures, head injuries and even problems with memory and thinking if hypoglycemia occurs often.

For an older diabetic like you, a more modest blood sugar goal might make more sense. Moderate control means an average blood sugar level between 150 and 200 milligrams per deciliter or a blood hemoglobin A1C level between 7.0 percent and 8.9

do the things they want to do. Your girlfriend might be holding out for marriage, not have a strong sex drive or not be as attracted to you as you are to her.

You didn’t mention how long you have been seeing this lady, but I think it’s time you discussed your feelings with her again, find out exactly why your sexual relationship hasn’t gone from theory to practice and take your cue from there.

Dear Abby: I’m 37 and have been married for eight years. I love my husband, but I’m not “in love” with him. In my younger years, I gave my heart to another woman.

Since then, I have masked my true feelings, but I can’t do it anymore. I’m still in love with “Loretta,” and I want to be with her. But now I have many responsibilities – husband, kids, etc.

I have told my husband about my feelings, but he seems to think this is something I’ll get over. I was 17 when Loretta and I started our relationship. We still love each other very much. I don’t want to hurt him, so what do I do?

– Following My Heart In Alabama Dear Following: What you do is tell your husband you thought you might be able to get over your love for Loretta, but you haven’t. Do not expect him to take the news lightly because he has good reason to be upset. But he needs to know none of this is his fault.

If he has trouble accepting and understanding this, suggest he contact the Straight Spouse Network (www.straightspouse.org) for the support it offers to the heterosexual partners of LGBT individuals.

am a 40-year-old man, divorced with teenage children, and have been exclusively dating a woman who has a 4-year-old daughter. There have been no clashes between our children.

We have yet to have sex. When I’m over at her place, I sleep on the living room floor either on an inflatable air mattress (her idea) or in a sleeping bag (my response when I just couldn’t take the air mattress any longer). Either way, I feel like I’m left to sleep on a dog bed – not great for my self-esteem, as you can imagine.

My girlfriend uses her daughter as the reason, suggesting the girl just wouldn’t understand me sleeping in Mommy’s bed. I personally don’t see it as being a big issue for her daughter, given how long we have been together. We have discussed the subject, and she makes reference to perhaps planning some sort of rendezvous, but it never seems to go from theory to practice.

There are no religious issues here. My girlfriend did have a promiscuous and troubled past as a young adult, so I’m sensitive to the issue. But this is driving me nuts. Any suggestions would be appreciated. – On Hold In New

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Take your responsibilities seriously, but don’t allow them to dominate your day.

Preparation will help you balance work and play, allowing you to remain centered, calm and more likely to succeed in all aspects of your life.

Don’t let anyone waste your time or bully you.

Trust your judgment.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Personal change will allow you greater freedom. Handle situations responsibly, but don’t lose sight of what’s best for you. Let your intuition guide you and your emotions speak for you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Get to know the people you are working with better. There is

power in understanding those you are dealing with. Share little about yourself, but ask many questions and listen attentively.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Networking will bring about positive changes in partnerships and the way you handle others. Confidence will give you an advantage over those who challenge you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – If you think about how you earn your living or handle your cash, you will come up with a plan that will help you stabilize your personal and financial situations.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – With a little finagling and enthusiasm you will excel, but don’t be surprised if someone pressures you or challenges your ideas. Have an alternative plan in place to avoid delays.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Don’t hide facts, but don’t offer information that will incriminate you. If you use unusual tactics to get what you want, you will discover interesting resources to complement your efforts.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Don’t back down.

Share your opinion and honor your beliefs. Once you bring about changes that ease your stress, your emotional outlook will improve. Give others a chance to show their true colors.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Get hidden agendas out in the open so you can make a good decision based on facts, not on hearsay.

Challenge and resolve any misconception you have about a loved one.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – You can make personal changes that will help you present and

promote your agenda in a winning fashion. Your ability to wheel and deal will help you get ahead financially.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Don’t feel obliged to take on someone else’s problems or responsibilities. Stick to your own ventures and the people you can count on to contribute. Love is in the stars.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Too much of anything will lead to problems. Don’t make promises you cannot keep or overspend on people trying to buy love and favors. A self-help program will pay off.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – You’ll find comfort in pursuing a creative hobby or getting involved in a project or course that will help you gain insight into what you want to do next.

KNUDSON AUCTION & APPRAISALS 815-725-6023 “Since 1947”

I am writing this column straight after Roger Federer lost to Milos Raonic in the semifinal of Wimbledon last month. Federer was another commentator victim. At 5-6 in the fourth set, Federer was ahead 40-0. A commentator said that this was just what Federer wanted, an easy service game to get into the tiebreaker. A couple of minutes later, Raonic had won the game and set, then he ran away with the fifth set.

By now, you would think commentators would know not to make an observation like that.

In today’s deal, one analyst said that six spades could be made if West leads the diamond queen, but not if he chooses the heart eight. Is that correct?

When North replied five hearts to South’s Blackwood inquiry, East made a lead-directing double.

If East had not doubled, West would surely have led the diamond queen, which would have given South an easy run. He would have taken the trick, drawn trumps, and run the club queen. The finesse would have lost, but declarer would have had the rest of the tricks.

It does seem as though the heart lead is fatal, but not if South plays carefully. He wins East’s heart queen with his ace, draws trumps, cashes his diamond ace, plays a diamond to dummy’s king, and ruffs the last diamond on his hand. Then he exits with his remaining heart. East takes the trick but is endplayed, having either to lead away from the club king or to concede a ruff-and-sluff (on which South discards a club).
