The World’s Columbian Exposition – Chicago In the late 19th century, a reform movement that sought to improve the nation’s cities through beautification gained wide exposure through the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago.

The fair expressed the ideals of the “City Beautiful” reformers through the creation of a “White City” of architecture and infrastructure built in the Beaux Arts style, which was a shining example of city planning.

The World’s Columbian Exposition transformed the city of Chicago in 1893 and influenced the city’s development for decades to come. The Columbian Exposition, also known as the Chicago World’s Fair, was located in Jackson Park, at the current site of the Museum of Science and Industry, the University of Chicago and the Midway Plaisance.

The six-month event drew an estimated 27 million visitors, 14 million from outside the United States, at a time when the population of Chicago was just more than 1 million.

The Columbian Exposition celebrated, one year late, the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus’ “discovery” of the Americas. Chicago competed with cities such as New York and St. Louis for the right to host the fair.

Exposition planners wanted to demonstrate Chicago’s international stature just 22 years after much of the city center had been destroyed by fire. Promoters also wanted to focus on the progress, change and innovation that happened in America since the end of the Civil War. Daniel Burnham served as the fair’s lead architect and oversaw the design and planning of the fair’s main buildings.

These massive, neoclassical structures came to be known, collectively, as the White City.

Despite their imposing appearance, the buildings were made from wood frames wrapped in staff, a white color plaster mixture that created the illusion of stone. The White City lasted for six months, the length of the fair. The exposi-

tion closed in late October 1893; and that winter, a number of the buildings were destroyed by fire.

Just as the organizers had hoped, the scale and grandeur of the Columbian World’s Exposition surpassed any previous international exhibition. It featured a grand display of nearly 200 buildings, and it brought in people and cultures from 46 countries.

There were many other magnificent structures at the fair, such as the Machinery Hall, the Manufacture and Liberal Arts Building, and the Electricity Building, among others. The Palace of Fine Arts was designed as a fireproof building to protect valuable paintings on display. This building was one of two designed to be permanent. Today, the Palace has become the Museum of Science and Industry.

Burnham officially challenged all American engineers to design and build a structure so special that it even could outperform the Eiffel Tower. A 33-yearold civil engineer from Pennsylvania, George Ferris Jr., arrived in Chicago and learned about the challenge. Ferris

sketched out and submitted a plan for a huge “observation wheel” in full detail, including the ticket price. Ferris had found investors who were willing to cover the construction cost to build the structure.

The Ferris wheel quickly became the top attraction at the Exposition. The magnificent wheel featured 36 huge and elegant cars, each of which could fit 60 people for a total of 2,160 passengers.

Visitors paid 50 cents each to ride the attraction. The ticket for a 20-minute ride was equal to the exposition’s general admission fee. On an average day, nearly 10,000 people rode the wheel. With nearly five months of operation, the wheel carried 1.5 million passengers and generated $750,000 for the Ferris Wheel Co. By the end of the Exposition, the Ferris wheel had become the symbol of American’s national pride at the fair.

While the wheel was not meant to be a permanent structure like the Eiffel Tower, the Ferris Wheel came to embody the significant characteristics of 19th-century America – technology, mobility, innovation and change.

Hopstring Fest in Joliet combines craft beer and other crafts

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Craft beers and live bands. What more could you want?

Maybe a guy who walks on machete blades and drives a nail up his nose with a sledgehammer?

Hopstring Fest had that, too.

The fifth Hopstring Fest at Silver Cross Field on Saturday brought craft beer and local music lovers looking for what Matt Streibich called a “mellow” time.

“It’s always been a pretty mellow fest,” Streibich said. “People are mellow, listen to some music and have some fun.”

And drink some uniquely brewed beers, of course, which Streibich and his friends in the Joliet Brewers Guild helped provide.

“We have 15 beers on tap,” said Streibich, secretary of the Guild.

“We’re giving away free samples of the beer and asking for donations to MorningStar Mission.”

The annual event is organized by Mike and Kathy owners of More online Trizna, Chicago Street Bar and Grill, along with what Mike called “a core group of friends.”

Thirty bands were playing throughout the Visit this story at event, about half TheHerald-News. of them from the Com for video from Joliet region and the other half from Hopstring Fest. farther but not too far, Trizna said.

The brewers were independent and local or regional.

The vendors?

“All local – every one of them,” Trizna said.

Hopstring Fest-goers like local.

“Every second or third person I walk by pats me on the back and says, ‘Hey Triz, this is great,’ ” Trizna said.

“I don’t have to have the appreciation.

But it’s great that people come year in and year out because they enjoy it.”

Hopstring Fest is not complicated.

“I like the music here a lot. All the people are very nice here,” said Cheyenne Helix of Joliet, who was running a “Make Your Own Necklace” booth.

The price for a necklace was $2.

“It’s a craft-focused event,” said

Hill heads the Carnival of Curiosity and Chaos out of Chicago. He and his fellow performers were doing acrobatics in midafternoon. Later, Hill said, he would be doing flesh-hook suspension.

“The hook pierces your flesh, and you’re lifted off the ground,” Hill said.

“We’ll be doing that later tonight. Too many kids around. … During the day, it’s more family-friendly circus acts –

Joliet proposing hikes in water, sewer rates

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The city of Joliet’s Utilities Department has proposed a 12.5 percent increase in water and sewer rates in November and continued increases through 2025.

The proposal comes a year after the City Council put off a proposed 9 percent increase until an efficiency study was done to determine where the department could save money.

The efficiency report, presented earlier this month, concluded that the city needs to spend more on preventive maintenance and hire more people, but it did not identify any large cost savings.

“We should be doing 2 percent of our water mains and sewer mains a year. We’re doing less than 1 percent. And we have some large EPA mandates that we need to fund.”

said staff is scheduled to make a presentation to the full council at the Sept.

19 meeting. If the council approves the rate hike in October, it would go into effect Nov. 1, Turk said.

The proposed increases would pay for improvements mandated by the Environmental Protection Agency.

Finance Director James Ghedotte said the increases also would fund regular line replacements recommended James Ghedotte for the water and sewer system as a City of Joliet finance director preventive maintenance program.

“We should be doing 2 percent of our water mains and sewer mains a year,” The rate increase proposal was pre- Ghedotte said. “We’re doing less than 1 sented last week to the council’s Fi- percent. And we have some large EPA nance Committee. mandates that we need to fund.”

Committee Chairman Michael Turk The future rate increases, accord-

ing to the analysis presented last week to the Finance Committee, would be: • 10.5 percent in 2017 • 4 percent in 2018 • 4 percent in 2019 • 8.5 percent in 2020 • 8.5 percent in 2021 • 8 percent in 2022 • 5 percent in 2023 • 3 percent in 2024 • 2 percent in 2025 The Water and Sewer Fund cash balance is projected to drop from $26 million this year to $13 million in 2017 without a rate increase. The cash balance would decline in future years until 2024, when there would be a $3.3 million deficit, according to the analysis.

Richland D-88A celebrates back-to-school, volunteer efforts

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com CREST HILL – Efforts by volunteers from Mississippi to clean up Richland District 88A were celebrated last week with a back-to-school event filled with entertainment and food.

Richland Superintendent Michael Early stood Thursday in the parking lot of the elementary school section of the district where the celebration took place. Around him were dozens of parents, teachers and children enjoying music and food. Several bounce houses were set up for the children.

“What a great way to kick off the school year,” Early said.

During the past week, volunteers who are part of the We Care Campaign came from Yazoo City, Mississippi, to wash windows, do landscaping and other work for the two-school Crest Hill district that has just under 950 students.

We Care Campaign is part of the Three Rivers Baptist Association.

Thursday’s back-to-school event was a culmination of the week’s work, said Clint Ritchie, a pastor for First Baptist Church in Yazoo City and We Care Campaign volunteer.

He said the volunteers came to do tasks the school needed that the district didn’t have the manpower to do before the new academic year began.

“We were able to come in and show we care about Crest Hill,” Ritchie said.

Early said the volunteers “put a spit shine” on the district’s buildings and grounds and that they were a “great, great group of people.”

“They have been like a triage. It’s

unbelievable what they’ve been doing,” he said.

Richland Principal Kelly Whyte she got in contact with the We Care Campaign volunteers in early summer and that after they did the cleaning and landscaping work, they offered to do a back-to-school event for the students.

Early said Thursday’s event was part of the district’s improvement

plan, as officials talked about having a back-to-school picnic, and this event fit right in.

Whyte said the best part of the event was seeing the connections being made among teachers, parents and administrators.

“Our theme this year is making connections,” Whyte said, “and this goes along with what we’re hoping to do in the community.”

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com Metra plans to launch a fare study Sept. 1 that could lead to rate, zone and ticketing changes for commuters.

The agency has not undergone a study such as this since its 1984 inception, and it has contracted California-based Four Nine Technologies to complete the work and develop recommendations for a potential change.

Metra will pay no more than $315,300, according to the contract.

“This team will play a significant role in partnering with our agency to evaluate our fare structure and make creative recommendations for changes,” Metra Board Chairman Martin Oberman said in a written statement.

“The entire Metra Board feels strongly that we need to do this important work, particularly in light of our many funding needs and our major funding challenges.”

Metra operates 11 routes over 488 miles throughout Cook, DuPage, Will, Lake, Kane and McHenry counties.

There are 241 Metra stations, includ-

ing more than a dozen in Will County for the four routes that run through various parts of the county.

The study comes on the heels of an Aug. 9 announcement that Metra would postpone the search for a vendor to build 367 rail cars. New cars are part of the company’s $2.4 billion modernization plan, but a lack of state funding makes major capital improvements difficult – the cars could cost more than $3 million each, Metra said.

The study will examine the distance-based rate model it currently uses. Different cities along the train route are grouped into zones. As the train moves closer to the city, fares decrease, and riders are charged according to the zone where they boarded.

Ten-ride, monthly and weekend passes also are available, which can reduce cost for daily commuters.

Final recommendations for possible change most likely will come next summer, according to Metra Rail presentation documents.

Metra last raised its rates by 2 percent Feb. 1.

Crisis Line of Will County to celebrate 40th year Saturday

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com JOLIET – On Saturday, the Crisis Line of Will and Grundy Counties will celebrate its 40th anniversary with a laid-back celebration at the Joliet Area Historical Museum.

While it is a small agency, 40 years signifies the extensive amount of help the nonprofit has provided in times of need. The organization offers aroundthe-clock services, such as information and referrals, telephone counseling and support, suicide prevention and intervention, and reassurance calls.

But Executive Director Michele Batara said that Saturday will be a time to celebrate 40 years while hopefully getting the word out more about the organization, and potentially raising some funds in the process.

“We’re not expecting thousands of dollars,” Batara said. “But we can always use the support.”

For $30, attendees can enjoy – from 6 to 10 p.m. – live entertainment, food and entrance to the Joliet Area Historical Museum’s exhibits.

Soul Motion – a cover band that plays soul, classic R & B, funk, blues,

Cutting Edge Catering will grill burgers, chicken, hot dogs and brats on-site.

There will be a silent auction and various raffles. Batara said it will be a family-friendly evening.

“There’s no program to this,” Batara said. “Families can come out and find out what services the Crisis Line offers in the process.”

The organization always is open to adding volunteers. Batara said the Crisis Line typically asks for a four-hour commitment per week.

“We look for people who want to give back,” Batara said. “We look for compassionate people, because we deal with many different issues.”

She said prospective volunteers must participate in training.

VIEWS Kris Stadalsky route instead. Dzieken started out riding, but decided to get out and walk.

“I walked about half the parade route,” he said.

People applauded and waved, and if Dzieken noticed a youngster with a sad face along the route, he made sure to get real close, smile and wave.

“It was very enjoyable for me,” Dzieken said.

The parade committee bought about 2,000 flags to hand out to attendees and the veterans to get people into a patriotic mood, Cimaroli said.

“A lot of younger people don’t understand the whole veteran thing,” Cimaroli said. “Sometimes, our vets

get lost in the shuffle.”

Overall, it was a great parade, she said, with lots of participation from local groups and people.

Amy Singletary helped out with the veterans. They met at Channahon United Methodist Church and were bused over to the parade.

Singletary walked with them along the route. She loved working the crowd, shaking hands with onlookers, and getting them to applaud and honor the veterans.

“Some of the people stood up and clapped – that was amazing,” Singletary said. “But others didn’t, and that was sad. Not everybody knows to do that.”

Singletary was taken by one man who got up from his viewing spot to come over and shake the hand of a veteran walking in the parade. The vets then got him to walk along the rest of the way with them.

All the veterans who participated were treated to lunch at the Three Rivers Festival via food coupons, and a concert by the Joliet American Legion Band.

Singletary said she would like to see even more veterans participate in future Three Rivers Fest parades.

“We will be happy to have them every year walking in the parade,” she said.

While Dzieken would have liked to see more veterans participate, he was honored to be one of the many grand marshals – something he hadn’t expected.

“All in all, they put a really good one over on us,” he chuckled. “I thought that was really great.”

AN EXTRAORDINARY LIFE

‘You would have never known he had cancer’

Bill Allen didn’t let ACC interfere with his goals

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

MINOOKA – Bill Allen of Minooka was just 18 in the summer of 2006 when the severe jaw pain hit.

He was referred to a specialist in temporomandibular joint disorders.

An MRI showed a tumor on his right salivary gland. A specialist removed the tumor, and a biopsy showed Bill had a rare glandular cancer: adenoid cystic carcinoma. It already was at stage 4.

Bill had only one thought.

“He was going to beat it,” said his mother, Carol Allen.

For a time, it seemed likely that Bill might do so. In September 2006, Bill began chemotherapy and radiation. A neuroma was removed from the surgery site the following December and, two years after that, two small tumors were removed from Bill’s left lung, followed by the removal of two nodes. In July 2012, another tumor was removed from the same lung.

But during that surgery, larger

tumors in the lung and pleura were found. This meant surgery no longer was an option, and Bill had exhausted other cancer-fighting treatments, Carol said.

At that point, Bill turned to experimental treatments and clinical trials, and he continued to live his life.

“Unless you knew Bill on a personal level, you would have never known he had cancer,” Bill’s wife, Ashliegh Allen, wrote in an email.

Bill had grown up helping his parents on their farm. He belonged to 4-H. He played saxophone and violin in grade school, and he became an Eagle Scout. He played tennis while attending Joliet Catholic Academy, as well as worked for Minooka Pharmacy.

He continued working for the pharmacy while studying psychology at the University of St. Francis, where Bill also played tennis.

After graduation in 2010, Bill became employed by Costco Wholesale in Oak Brook. In 2013, Bill became a pharmacy training coordinator for Costco Wholesale and moved to Washington – all while fighting cancer.

“He wanted to be a regular guy,” Carol said. “I think it pushed him to work hard.”

Ashliegh said she began dating Bill in 2009 – when she was 19 and he was 22 – and married him in 2014. Early in their relationship, Bill offered Ashliegh a “Get out of jail free card.” She

the point of attending many of the band’s concerts, even those overseas – and found encouragement in the music.

“He’d listen to Dave’s music when getting radiation treatments,” said Bill’s father, Charles Allen.

One of Bill’s favorite songs by the band was “#41,” which includes this verse: “I will go in this way. And find my own way out.” That summed up Bill’s logical, fighting approach to his disease, Ashliegh feels.

“There were plenty of times we both felt overwhelmed, but the thing about Bill is that he never wanted to give up,” Ashliegh said. “He swore he would fight to the end, and he did.”

The theme of this year’s Three Rivers Festival in Channahon was “A Salute to America,” so it seemed like a perfect idea to honor our veterans as the grand marshals of the parade on the festival’s last day.

“Everyone was on the same page [choosing veterans for the job],” said Karen Cimaroli, co-chairwoman of the parade committee.

American Legion Post 294 Riders of Morris came out on their motorcycles. Minooka American Legion Post 1188 followed behind carrying banners as they walked.

Channahon resident Hank Dzieken, a World War II Navy veteran, believes that, at 90, he might have been the oldest parade marshal in attendance.

Morris Hospital donated two air-conditioned buses to transport the veterans (the drivers were veterans as well), but many chose to walk the

Founding guitarist of 3 Doors Down Matt Roberts dies

WEST BEND, Wis. – Guitarist Matt Roberts, a founding member of the rock band 3 Doors Down, has died in Wisconsin.

The 38-year-old was in West Bend to perform at a benefit. The West Bend Police Department says someone called authorities around 7 a.m. Saturday to report an unconscious man in a hotel hallway. Police and firefighters found Roberts dead.

The police statement says there were no signs of trauma and that the cause of death was not immediately known. An autopsy was planned for Sunday.

Roberts left 3 Doors Down in 2012 for health reasons. According to Billboard, he helped found the band with vocalist Brad Arnold and bassist Todd Harrell. They were all natives of Escatawpa, Mississippi.

The band’s biggest hit was the 2000 song “Kryptonite,” which was nominated for a Grammy Award.

Italian soprano Daniela Dessi dies at 59 after brief illness

MILAN – Italy’s La Scala opera house says soprano Daniela Dessi has died. She was 59.

Last month, Dessi wrote to her fans on Facebook saying she had to cancel all her summer performances due to an undisclosed health problem.

The ANSA news agency quoted her companion, Fabio Armiliato, as saying she died in Brescia after a “brief, terrible and incomprehensible illness.”

In a statement Saturday, La Scala said Dessi’s solid technique, strong temperament and “rare interpretative sensibility” made her one of the “most notable figures on the international operatic scene.”

It added that her performances “remain among the unforgettable pages of La Scala’s history from recent decades.”

Aside from La Scala, Dessi performed in major opera houses, including the Metropolitan in New York, Vienna’s Staatsoper and the Deutsche Oper in Berlin.

WASHINGTON – George E. Curry, a journalist, civil-rights activist and publisher whose syndicated column ran in hundreds of black-owned newspapers around the United States, has died. He was 69.

Curry, of Laurel, Maryland, died suddenly on Saturday at Washington Adventist Hospital in Takoma Park, Maryland, after he was taken to the emergency room there, his sister, Charlotte Purvis, said Sunday.

Curry’s syndicated col- George E. umn was carried in more Curry than 200 African-American-owned newspapers, and he served two stints as editor-in-chief of the National Newspaper Publishers Association, a news service for black papers.

He also served as editor-in-chief of Emerge magazine in the 1990s, and within the past year, he had been raising money to relaunch Emerge as a digital magazine covering racial injustice and other issues important to the black communi-

ty. He became the first African-American to be elected president of the American Society of Magazine Editors.

He was a frequent commentator on Black Entertainment Television and on the Rev. Al Sharpton’s radio show.

“I am saddened beyond words upon hearing of the death of George Curry,” Sharpton tweeted Sunday. “He was a giant and trailblazer. RIP.” A native of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Curry graduated from Knoxville College in Tennessee, where he edited the school paper and played football. He worked as a reporter for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Sports Illustrated and the Chicago Tribune.

“George E. Curry was a giant in journalism,” Rep. G.K. Butterfield, D-N.C., the chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, said in a statement. “He stood on the front lines of the civil-rights era and used his voice to tell our stories when others would not.”

While at Emerge, he led a four-year campaign to win the release of Kemba Smith, a woman sentenced to 24 years in prison for her minor role in a drug ring.

Emerge ran a cover story on Smith in 1996 called “Kemba’s Nightmare.” President Bill Clinton pardoned Smith in 2000.

Ill. latest state to expand domestic workers’ rights

By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Left out of federal labor law written decades ago, nannies, housekeepers and private caregivers are gaining legal protections in a growing number of states, with Illinois becoming the latest to establish a domestic workers’ “bill of rights.”

The Illinois rules, signed by Gov. Bruce Rauner this month, extend sexual harassment protections as well as minimum-wage pay and a guaranteed one day off in a seven-day work week to the domestic workforce, which is mostly female and immigrant heavy.

Six other states have similar laws, but Illinois is now the first in the Midwest, and advocates said they hope to expand their efforts into the southern states.

Backers said the laws are needed because domestic workers are particularly vulnerable to exploitation: They work alone at odd hours and often live where they work. The pay can be measly and for immigrants, language and legal status can complicate things.

Last week, a Minnesota woman was charged with allegedly beating and starving a woman she brought from

Feds in terror case want max term for ex-Illinois guardsman

CHICAGO – Prosecutors want a federal judge next month to impose the maximum 30-year prison sentence on a former Illinois National Guard soldier who plotted to attack a military armory in his home state, saying in a new filing that “betraying one’s country while in its service is a particularly grave crime.”

Hasan Edmonds, 23, of Aurora, deserves the stiffest penalty available under the law because he violated the oath he took when he joined the National Guard to defend the United States against all enemies, a government sentencing memorandum filed Friday in Chicago federal court said.

Edmonds devised a plan for

China to work as a nanny up to 18 hours a day.

“Working in someone’s home and the aspect of it being invisible work from the public view ... it leaves a lot of room for workers to be mistreated,” said Yomara Velez, an organizer with the New York-based National Domestic Workers Alliance.

him to travel to the Middle East and join Islamic State fighters while his cousin, 30-year-old Jonas Edmonds, attacked the National Guard armory in Joliet.

The goal, prosecutors said, was to kill as many as 150 people at the facility.

The filing calls Hasan Edmonds’ plot “a contemptible betrayal of both the Nation’s trust and his fellow soldiers.”

Under plea agreements, Hasan Edmonds pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiring to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization. Jonas Edmonds pleaded guilty to conspiring to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization and lying to federal agents.

The cousins, both U.S. citizens, are scheduled for sentencing Sept. 16. Jonas Edmonds faces a maximum 23-year prison term.

Prosecutors have asked U.S. District Judge John Z. Lee to also sentence the men to lifetime periods of supervised release once out of prison.

D.C. Household employees – including maids and cooks – weren’t included in 1930s labor law, though federal rules have since changed.

New York became the first state to add basic rights for domestic workers, outlining rules for overtime pay, days off and discrimination protections in 2010. Hawaii, Massachusetts, Oregon and Connecticut also added protections. California established temporary overtime pay rules for private domestic workers in 2013 and legislators approved an expansion this week. But Gov. Jerry Brown initially rejected a 2012 version of the plan over concerns about adding regulations and the cost and financial burden for families.

Those same questions were raised in Illinois, particularly with an initial version of legislation that noted vacation and overtime requirements. Republicans opposed to an earlier draft, along with a home care association, had questions about how hours would be tracked. But State Rep. Elizabeth Hernandez, a suburban Chicago Democrat who sponsored the measure, said it was pared back, amending four state laws to include domestic workers. The law then passed with bipartisan sup-

Special meaning for honorary highways in central Illinois

PEORIA – Nearly two dozen stretches of roadways across central Illinois are designated to memorialize someone.

An Illinois Department of Transportation report said there are 22 such designated pieces of roadway in the 12 counties of the department’s Fourth District, which runs from south of the Quad Cities to the McLean County line.

The honors often go to military members or public safety workers who have died in the line of duty or community leaders, the Journal Star reported. During the last several months, state lawmakers have voted five times to name a section of a state-controlled road for an honoree.

A third are bridges. Others are on state roads running through the towns, and some are on interstate highways.

Fifteen such segments fall within the Tri-County Area, which has the largest population

port before being signed by Rauner, a Republican.

Magdalena Zylinksa, a Polish immigrant, said the rules were desperately needed. She’s worked as a nanny, caregiver and housekeeper around Chicago for years.

As a live-in caregiver, she worked seven days straight and had to share a room with the elderly woman she tended. As a nanny for two children, she worked from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., and was paid $40 daily. There were also safety concerns, such as when a male resident of a home where she cleaned and washed clothes with another worker would undress and linger in the laundry room.

At the time, Zylinksa was living in the country illegally. She’d overstayed her tourist visa and was afraid to call police.

“We didn’t think about anything else,” she said. “We were scared we were going to lose the (housekeeping job) and lose the money.”

She’s since obtained legal status and said the new law will make things far easier.

National advocates said they’ll use the Illinois model as a blueprint.

Brown highway markers are placed at each end of memorial or honorary roads. The signs cost a few hundred dollars each.

CHICAGO – Illinois State Police officials said a trooper shot and wounded a teenage boy who was inside a fleeing stolen vehicle on Chicago’s South Side.

State police told The Chicago Sun-Times that the vehicle was reported stolen at gunpoint earlier Saturday. A trooper later spotted the vehicle and tried to pull it over about 6:50 p.m. The vehicle sped away, but eventually was caught in traffic at the northbound Chinatown ramp.

Arrest made in Illinois State Fair stabbing

Illinois State Police said a 17-year-old girl has been arrested in the weekend stabbing of a 16-year-old girl at the Illinois State Fair.

A statement from the agency said the stabbing occurred Saturday night in the carnival area of the fair in Springfield.

The statement said the girl was expected to be released from the hospital Sunday. It describes the incident as “isolated.”

The Sangamon County Sheriff’s Office, the Springfield Police Department and the Conservation Police aided the investigation.

Somalia bombings kill 17 at government HQ, market Kim Binsted, principal inves-

MOGADISHU, Somalia – A suicide bomber detonated an explosives-laden vehicle at the gates of a local government headquarters in Somalia while another bomber targeted a nearby marketplace, killing at least 17 people and wounding more than 30 others, police said Sunday.

Abdisalam Yusuf with the police said one bomber rammed the car into a checkpoint in Galkayo town Sunday morning after reaching the main gate of Puntland’s local government.

Puntland, a semi-autonomous state in northern Somalia, controls the northern part of the town, while the southern part is controlled by rival regional state Galmudug.

The al-Qaida-linked al-Shabab group claimed responsibility for the attack.

Yearlong Mars simulation nears end on Mauna Loa

HILO, Hawaii – Six scientists are close to wrapping up a year of near isolation in a Mars simulation on a Hawaii mountain.

The scientists are housed in a dome on Mauna Loa and can go outside only in spacesuits, the Hawaii Tribune-Herald reported.

They manage limited resources while conducting research and working to avoid personal conflicts.

Communication is delayed the 20 minutes, the length it would take to relay messages from

tigator for the Hawaii Space Exploration Analog and Simulation, said this simulation is the second-longest of its kind after a mission that lasted 520 days in Russia.

Mauna Loa soil is similar to what would be found on Mars.

The area’s high elevation means almost no plant growth.

Turkey suicide bomber who killed 51 was child

ISTANBUL – A child suicide bomber killed at least 51 people and wounded nearly 70 others at a Kurdish wedding party near Turkey’s border with Syria, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Sunday, decrying the attack as an apparent attempt by Islamic State extremists to destabilize the nation by exploiting ethnic and religious tensions.

“As of now, the preliminary conclusions by our governor’s office and the police establishment point to an attack by Daesh,” Erdogan said, using another common term for IS. The bombing late Saturday in Gaziantep was the deadliest attack in Turkey this year.

It comes amid ongoing struggles between the government and Kurdish militants linked to the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party, known as the PKK, and as the country is still reeling from the aftermath of last month’s failed coup attempt.

Suspect’s ex-girlfriend lived at Alabama home where 5 slain

By JEFF MARTIN

The Associated Press ATLANTA – The suspect in the killing of five people at a home in Alabama attacked them while they slept and then abducted his estranged girlfriend and an infant – both of whom were found alive, authorities said Sunday.

It could take investigators days to sort out the grisly murder scene in Citronelle, a small town 30 miles northwest of Mobile. Authorities said the dead were found Saturday afternoon inside the home and included a pregnant woman.

The crime was of a magnitude rarely if ever seen in this corner of rural, southern Alabama, Mobile County sheriff’s Capt. Paul Burch said.

“It’s unprecedented here,” Burch told The Associated Press.

Earlier, Burch told reporters at the scene that investigators expect to be at the scene for a couple of days. “It’s obviously a horrific scene,” he said.

Mobile County District Attorney Ashley Rich told reporters near the scene that in her 20-year career as a prosecutor, she’s never encountered a crime “where there were five people who were brutally and viciously murdered, and that’s what we have here.”

She said “multiple weapons” were used.

Derrick Dearman, 27, of Leakesville, Mississippi, was taken into custody after he walked into the sheriff’s office in Greene County, Mississippi, about 20 miles west of Citronelle, Burch said. Dearman was accompanied by his father when he showed up at the sheriff’s department and surrendered Saturday afternoon, the Alabama sheriff’s office

said in a statement.

Dearman has confessed to the crimes, Burch told the news site Al.com.

“He’s been cooperative,” Burch told the AP on Sunday.

Dearman will be charged with six counts of capital murder, Mobile County sheriff’s spokeswoman Lori Myles said Sunday. Five counts stem from the killing of the adults, and the additional count is because one of the slaying victims, 22-year-old Chelsea Marie Reed, was five months’ pregnant, Myles said.

The other four killed were identified by sheriff’s officials as Shannon Melissa Randall, 35; Justin Kaleb Reed, 23; Joseph Adam Turner, 26; and Robert Lee Brown, also 26.

Prosecutors have already begun the process of trying to extradite Dearman from Mississippi to Alabama, Burch said on Sunday. The sheriff of Greene County, Stanley McLeod, could not be reached for comment Sunday.

Though connections between Dearman and the five people killed were not immediately clear, investigators have determined that his ex-girlfriend, Laneta Lester, had gone to the home on Aug. 19 to get away from an abusive relationship with Dearman, the sheriff’s office said in a statement. Lester was staying with a relative there.

Around 1 a.m. Saturday, someone inside the residence called 911 and reported that Dearman was on the property, the statement said. Citronelle police came to the house, but Dearman had left before the officers arrived, sheriff’s officials said.

Later, sometime between 1:15 a.m. and daylight Saturday, Dearman returned to the home and attacked the victims while they were sleeping, the statement said.

When schools are threatened, learning time is lost

By KANTELE FRANKO The Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio – The prosecutor calls it “bomb week,” his shorthand for eight school threats – many written in school bathrooms or on notes – over a few days in May that set off evacuations and investigations, parental panic, and the rumor mill of students linked by cellphones and social media in his Ohio county.

Track athletes missed an end-ofseason competition, and some high schoolers started carrying their car keys with them instead of leaving them in lockers, just in case, Warren County prosecutor David Fornshell said. One mother complained that a girl who uses an insulin pump had taken it off for gym class and had to evacuate without it.

“Nobody who sends their kids to school should have to go through that kind of stress and that type of disruption,” Fornshell said.

Such violent or disruptive threats are increasing nationwide, according to police, school employees, security consultants and others, blamed sometimes on local students and sometimes on outsiders seeking to cause disruptions or a big emergency response.

State and local agencies don’t track the threats, meaning there’s no formal accounting of the collective costs.

The disruptions typically aren’t long enough to merit makeup classes, but the learning time lost to evacuations and cancellations adds up, as do the hours police spend responding and investigating.

Less measurable but still significant are the ways threats can dent staff and students’ sense of security even when they’re false alarms, as they almost always are.

“Schools are in a really bad position,” said researcher Amy Klinger, of the nonprofit Educator’s School Safety Network. “People are going to be mad if you evacuate; people are going to be upset if you don’t evacuate.”

The number of school bomb threats the last academic year alone, based on media reports, was at least 1,267, about twice as many as in 2012-13, said Klinger, who also teaches educational administration at Ohio’s Ashland University.

Her group estimates there were about eight bomb threats per school day last year, and that doesn’t include other threats of violence and disruption. Massachusetts had the most in that tally at 135 bomb threats, followed

by Ohio with 96.

Because administrators and police can’t simply ignore threats , they grapple with the fallout while trying to deter copycats.

An emergency worker directs a volunteer with simulated injuries during a training exercise in May for an active shooter at Hopewell Elementary School in West Chester, Ohio.

Violent or disruptive threats are increasing nationwide, according to authorities.

“Schools are in a really bad position. People are going to be mad if you evacuate; people are going to be upset if you don’t evacuate.”

Amy Klinger

researcher for Educator’s School Safety Network In Ohio, more than 170 school threats were reported in the 2015-16 school year, according to an Associated Press tally based on police updates and media coverage. Threats of bombs, shootings and unspecified violence were called in, written as notes, scrawled on walls and shared via social media and apps. More than 100 Ohio public school districts, or about one in every six districts, dealt with at least one threat, as did a handful of private and charter schools and several college-level facilities.

Ohio-based consulting firm National School Safety and Security Services had flagged the state as having more school threats – 64 – than any other state in the first half of the previous academic year. The firm said it studied more than 800 threats around the country in that period, up from 315 in a similar span a year earlier.

At least a couple of the recent Ohio threats occurred one day in late May when dozens of threats were made against schools nationwide as officials investigated whether it might be a case of “swatting,” when hoaxers playing online games anonymously make threats online or by phone to trigger big responses from police and SWAT teams. Some of those schools evacuated; others didn’t.

Months earlier, an email threat-

ening a large-scale jihadi attack had prompted the Los Angeles Unified School District to cancel classes for a day in December, while school officials in New York City quickly dismissed a similar email as a hoax.

Schools where students and visitors entered freely a decade or two ago now have surveillance cameras, locked doors and special security procedures.

The National Association of School Resource Officers estimates the number of such officers in schools has grown to between 14,000 and 20,000, some armed.

And teachers are sometimes perceived as first responders.

Lawmakers in Maine, New York, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and elsewhere have explored strengthening penalties for school threats.

In Ohio, lawmakers are proposing legislation to let schools expel students for months for making certain kinds of threats and have them evaluated to determine whether they’re a danger to themselves or others.

The bill, supported by associations representing school boards, superintendents and school business managers, also would let districts and law enforcement agencies seek restitution from a student’s parents for the costs of responding to their threat.

One supporter of the measure, Hilliard Superintendent John Mar-

schhausen, whose suburban Columbus district had a student accused of threatening a school shooting, described threats “an all too frequent reality.”

At least half of the Ohio threats last school year led to evacuations, dismissals or cancellation of classes or activities, according to AP’s analysis.

The frequency of evacuations concerns Lt. Joe Hendry, a veteran Kent State University police officer and a trainer and consultant on threat responses. There’s no catch-all response for schools, he said, but he suggests they consider whether it would be better to evaluate the legitimacy of a threat before automatically or habitually evacuating.

Besides the disruption, security experts note that neatly filing out of a building and gathering masses of people in one place potentially puts them in further jeopardy if someone wants to target them.

People intending real violence don’t generally call ahead, Hendry said, so “I’m more worried about the threat that I don’t know about rather than the threat that I do.”

Even the false alarms can have broad consequences, and the prosecutor overseeing the “bomb week” cases is trying to drive home that point.

A handful of students were blamed for those threats, including a 12-yearold girl. Fornshell said he would ask a judge to make those found responsible for evacuations write handwritten apology letters to each of the hundreds of affected families in the district – perhaps 1,500 or more, depending on the district – in addition to time in juvenile detention or any other discipline.

Before the night was done, Hill would walk across machete blades, drive a nail into his nose, and lie on a bed of nails as people from the crowd walked over him.

But for most of people who go to Hopstring Fest, it’s mainly about the beer and the music.

“It’s a really great time,” said Rachel Ellinger of Joliet.

“It’s nice to have something like this so close to home. You

don’t have to travel to Chicago. You see a lot of these kind of events in Chicago.”

“It’s a nice, relaxed atmosphere,” said Carl Minuth of Manhattan. “It’s fun. It’s a great spirit.”

Sue Regis, who owns Sue Regis Glass Art, was demonstrating her craft at Hopstring Fest. She and Trizna both own businesses downtown.

“I love what Mike’s doing,” Regis said. “He’s bringing the artists and musicians together. He’s bringing them all together in one spot. We’re enjoying good music and good beer.”

Defensive standout Smith aims to lead USF to playoffs

By CURT HERRON

cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – While Tim Smith was understandably humbled to be selected as both an NAIA All-American and his conference’s defensive MVP a year ago, there was something missing from the campaign that the University of St. Francis defensive lineman really wanted.

And that was seeing the Fighting Saints earn a spot in the NAIA playoffs after finishing 8-3 and winning a share

NEW 20N1E6W D2O0D16GEDO DG CHALLCEN HG ALELRENGER E HELLCH ATELCLHCRAOTM CEHROME EDITIOENDI TION

of the Mid-States Football Association Midwest League championship.

After falling to Saint Xavier, 34-28, in last season’s opener, USF won eight of its last 10 games to finish 4-1 in the MSFA. But while the Cougars earned the conference’s automatic berth, the 18th-ranked Saints weren’t selected as one of the at-large picks to the 16-team event.

The path to the postseason is just as challenging this year for the Saints, who are 17th in the NAIA preseason rankings. They open Sept. 3 at No. 10

Saint Xavier, play at Division III Wisconsin-Platteville the next week and are at Missouri Baptist on Sept. 17.

After playing their next four games at Joliet Memorial Stadium, they close with three of their last four on the road, with the lone home game Nov. 5 against No. 1 Marian.

“We just use it as a chip on our shoulder and don’t let it bother us and use it to motivate us to do even better than last year,” Smith said of missing last year’s playoffs. “Our motto is just 1-0. So this year’s schedule is nothing

new since we faced ranked teams last year and ranked teams before, as well.

We just have to keep pushing and play one game at a time.”

The Saints return plenty of skilled players on both sides of the ball and also will have several talented newcomers who figure to complement those who are returning, and that should again place coach Joe Curry’s program among the best teams in the nation.

Roark’s ERA leads Nationals’ starters 43 hits and struck out 40 in 58 innings. Overall, including the first half of the season at Double-A Trenton, Enns is 13-4 with a 1.62 ERA and 114 strikeouts in 128 innings.

VIEWS Dick Goss Of this and that, beginning with the big leagues: The Washington Nationals are steaming toward the National League East title and the playoffs thanks in no small part to right-hander Tanner Roark, a Wilmington graduate who has been a consistent element in the starting rotation.

Roark (13-6) lost a chance for his 14th victory Friday night in Atlanta when the bullpen was unable to hold a 6-3 eighth-inning lead. The Braves tied the game that inning, and Washington won, 7-6, with a run in the top of the ninth.

The Nationals’ rotation is considered one of baseball’s best, and Roark has the best ERA among the starters. He is 13-6 with a 2.87 ERA. In 1631/3 innings, he has allowed 139 hits and 51 walks while striking out 130.

Meanwhile, the Braves’ Mike Foltynewicz (Minooka) continues to show signs that he is about to hit his stride as a major league starting pitcher. He is 6-5 with a 4.45 ERA. In 16 starts, he has pitched 89 innings, yielding 89 hits and 28 walks while striking out 76.

Left-hander Tony Cingrani, the Cincinnati Reds’ closer, has pitched very well since early June, with only one stinker of an appearance in nearly three months. That one came Aug. 8, when he al-

We recently discussed former Illinois teammates Tyler Jay (Lemont) and Kevin Duchene (Joliet Catholic) being on the disabled list with their teams in the Minnesota and Oakland organizations.

“I feel really good about our defense,” Smith said. “We’ve got a lot of new guys coming in, and they’re really fast, and we have a lot of veterans back who did really well last year. We

lost for the season in late May with an ACL tear.

Shortstop Dean Anna (Lincoln-Way East), playing for the Cardinals’ Triple-A team at Memphis, also had a stint on the DL in early August, but he returned to the active roster this weekend.

Anna is hitting .267 with 17 doubles, a triple, two home runs and 39 RBIs. He is one of two area products who seemingly are potential September callups, when major league teams can expand their rosters. The other is left-handed pitcher Dietrich Enns (Lincoln-Way East).

“Everyone on our defense works together, kind of like we’re in sync, we’re not separate and don’t rely on one group too much. The D-linemen provide the pressure, the linebackers help clean up when the linemen push them out toward them and the backfield helps with the turnovers, as well.”

A couple of baseball transfers: Left-hander Jake Latz (Lemont), the Illinois High School Pitcher of the Year in 2014, is the second local product to transfer from Louisiana State. After two injury-plagued seasons with the Tigers, Latz transferred earlier this summer to Kent State and will be a redshirt sophomore.

Right-hander Jake Godfrey (Providence) spent his freshman season at LSU before transferring to Northwest Florida State, a Division I junior college. He pitched there in the spring and committed to Arizona State for the 2017 season.

Latz will sit out next season because he transferred to another Division I school.

He could have been eligible immediately had he gone to a junior college, as Godfrey did.

He threw only 81/3 innings – all this season – at LSU as he battled elbow issues.

Latz, Godfrey and Latz’s high school batterymate, catcher Mike Papierski (Lemont), were members of LSU’s highly regarded recruiting class of 2014. Only Papierski remains there. Latz, meanwhile, will be a teammate of former Herald-News Player of the Year Dylan Rosa (Providence), who has had two solid

SCHEIBE ON MURPHY

Kelly Murphy (JCA) and the U.S. women’s volleyball team claimed the bronze medal Saturday with a four-set victory over Netherlands in the Summer Olympics at Rio de Janeiro.

Murphy finished the match with five kills, one block kill, one ace and one dig. Among her teammates was Wheaton St. Francis graduate Kelsey Robinson, who had one dig.

For many years, St. Francis and JCA were rivals as the best in Class 3A. “I couldn’t be more happy for Kelly and Kelsey for getting bronze and representing the state of Illinois like they have done,” JCA coach Christine Scheibe said. “Both were able to contribute in important, meaningful ways throughout the match and throughout the tournament.

“This has to be a dream come true for them. To think, nine years ago Kelly was playing against Kelsey for a supersectional in 2007, and now they’re on the floor together for Team USA taking a bronze medal in the Olympics. It speaks very well for the talent level of volleyball in Class 3A and in the state.”

Smith likes the resiliency that he and his Saints teammates bring to the field. That quality helped to produce a special season a year ago, and USF is looking forward to more of the same in 2016 with the ultimate goal being a postseason berth.

“One of the things that I like about our team is that we are incredibly durable, both mentally and physically,” Smith said. “Sometimes we get hit with injuries, but then it’s the next man up and then when the other guy comes back, he’s ready to go. And when we get hit with a loss, we come back even harder to try to get the win.”

JOLIET – Post a record of 99-13-1 over three years, and it is safe to say you’re a pretty good baseball team.

However, Bart Kemp, coach of the St. Joe’s Blue 10U travel team, says there is more to it than that.

“We have a group of parents who are very knowledgeable and very supportive, but they let their kids be coached,” Kemp said. “I’ve been spoiled. I have had 18 years with Jared (Voss, coaching in the Joliet Catholic program) and six years at St. Joe’s. We have very good kids from good families at St. Joe’s.

“The way these kids have played and the way they have acted, this is a direct reflection on the parents. I’m a firm believer that if kids are getting along on the field, parents are getting along off the field. This team is a perfect example of that.”

Kemp said this was the first year St. Joe’s fielded full-time travel teams on the 10U, 11U and 12U levels. There were travel teams previously, but the participants also played a homeleague schedule.

“St Joe’s saw what was going on everywhere else,” Kemp said. “Last year, these kids played in-house and basically were the all-stars at the end of the year.

“We went to the board in the fall and said we are going to start falling behind if we don’t offer a full-time travel option. If we have a full-time travel team, the ‘B’ team then becomes the in-house all-star team. The board listened and agreed. We have had great support in everything we do from the St. Joe’s board members.”

The St. Joe’s 10U roster consisted of Jim Anderson, Christian Chignoli, Jake Gahan, Jake Gimbel, Tommy

time travel has not hurt the numbers as far as the overall St. Joe’s league goes. We do have an outstanding program at St. Joe’s, and I referred some kids who tried out with us to the people in charge at St. Joe’s.”

The 10U travel team uses the St. Joe’s Mustang field for home games.

“Wednesdays are off days in the home league, so we tried to have games then, and then Saturday and Sunday afternoons we played home games,” Kemp said. “Of course, after school got out, we got in a lot more tournaments.”

Everyone knows travel ball is expensive. As Kemp said, “Ninety percent of what we do is through fundraising and parents’ costs.”

The dedication of the parents and kids and the parents’ financial outlays have paid dividends. The numbers in the St. Joe’s home league have held steady, and home-league kids who would not otherwise have been allstars have the opportunity to experience all-star competition.

Positives from the creation of fulltime travel teams at St. Joe’s are evident.

20 WHITE SOX 4, ATHLETICS 2

Quintana earns 10th victory

By MATT CARLSON The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Backed by enough runs and some nifty defense, Jose Quintana finally reached a personal milestone he’s been craving.

Quintana pitched into the eighth inning to earn a career-best 10th win and Jose Abreu homered for the second straight game to lead the White Sox to a 4-2 victory over the Oakland Athletics on Sunday.

“This was really special for me,” Quintana said. “When the year started, (winning 10) was my first goal.

“All my guys, teammates, celebrated with me.”

Todd Frazier had three hits and drove in two runs, and Justin Morneau added an RBI double in a three-run first as the White Sox took the final two games of the series and handed Oakland its seventh loss in eight games.

Tim Anderson also had three hits.

Khris Davis hit his 32nd homer, a two-run shot off Quintana (10-9), who finished with nine wins in each of the previous three seasons. The lefthander allowed struck out six and walked one in this one while allowing eight hits, and improved to 5-1 with a 2.25 ERA in his past nine starts.

Frazier said the normally reserved Quintana was “just yelling and screaming like a little kid” when the White Sox re-entered their clubhouse.

“He deserves it,” Frazier said.

White Sox starter Jose Quintana throws against the Oakland Athletics during the first inning of a baseball game Sunday at U.S. Cellular Field.

“Sometimes you gotta get like that in this game.”

Quintana, who entered with a run support average of 3.31 per nine innings pitched – second lowest in the AL – got more help than usual from his teammates, both offensively and defensively. Center fielder J.B. Shuck made two great catches, including a running grab of Ryon Healy’s hard-hit line drive with two outs in the first and runners on second and third.

The Sox staked Quintana to a 3-0

lead in the bottom half.

“It helps a lot... with the lack of run support he’s had over a period of time,” manager Robin Ventura said. “After that point, he was pretty strong.”

Quintana got two quick strikes on Jake Smolinski to lead off the eighth, but walked him and then was replaced

by Nate Jones. After Jones tossed a scoreless inning, David Robertson got the last three outs for his 32nd save in 38 chances.

Hammel roughed up in first inning The Associated Press

DENVER – Jason Hammel came to Coors Field on a roll but was roughed up by the Colorado Rockies.

Nolan Arenado broke out of a slump in a big way, hitting two homers and driving in six runs Sunday to boost the Rockies to an 11-4 win over the Cubs.

Arenado hit a three-run homer during a seven-run burst in the first inning that included three Cubs errors, then added another three-run drive in the fourth.

Hammel (13-6) had been 6-0 with a 0.95 ERA since the All-Star break before getting hit hard. The Rockies scored 10 runs off him, six earned, in 31/3 innings.

Slammers crushed by Gateway in finale SUBMITTED REPORTS

ROCKIES 11, CUBS 4

By MICHAEL KELLY

AREA ROUNDUP

“An oil painting it was not,” Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. “We gave them too many opportunities and we made Jason have to get six outs (in the first inning). We started making too many mistakes and we put Jason behind the proverbial 8-ball.”

Addison Russell homered twice, his 16th and 17th, and Anthony Rizzo had two hits for the Cubs.

Arenado leads the majors with 104 RBIs – he had a big league-high 130 last year – and tops the NL with 32 home runs.

The All-Star third baseman was 1 of 16 on the Rockies’ homestand before getting four hits. He passed Cubs slugger Kris Bryant for the NL homer lead.

Jorge De La Rosa (8-7) tossed eight innings and delivered a two-run sin-

gle in the first as the Rockies quickly ended Hammel’s 22-inning scoreless streak.

De La Rosa scattered four hits and struck out six in matching his longest outing since last Sept. 16. Russell was the only batter to reach second base against the lefty, who outpitched his former teammate.

“A lot of foul balls today off my slider and two mistakes to Arenado,” Hammel said. “That was pretty much the story.

“We’ll forget about it. It’s not going to bother me. I was pitching great up until this point and it’s one of those outliers and we will just move on.”

Arenado’s first homer hugged the left-field foul pole to start the early outburst. Tony Wolters had a two-run double and De La Rosa added his single.

SAUGET – One day after rolling to an easy 16-0 win over Gateway, the Joliet Slammers gave up 14 runs in the first four innings Sunday and lost, 17-6, as they dropped the rubber game of a weekend series with the Grizzlies.

With Washington claiming an 8-1 victory over Schaumburg, the Slammers (44-39) saw their lead in the Frontier League’s East Division slip to 2½ games.

Josh Bunselmeyer went 4 for 6 with five RBIs and three runs scored to lead Gateway (42-43), while Brandon Thomas drove in four runs and Tyler Tewell and Sam Fischer added three RBI apiece.

Slammers starter Spencer Medick took the loss after only lasting two innings.

Gateway hit five home runs while the Slammers got a home run from Carter Bell, his 12th of the season.

Jon Pusateri allowed no runs on one hit during 31/3 innings of relief to collect the victory.

The Slammers had just one hit in the last five innings and fanned eight times.

Joliet, which was outhit 18-8, led 3-0 in the top of the second and was tied at 4-4 going into the bottom of the third before the hosts broke things open with a six-run inning.

Melvin Rodriguez drove in two runs while Marc Flores had two hits and scored twice for Joliet, which hosts Windy City in a three-game series beginning Tuesday.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS RIO DE JANEIRO – Shaking to samba and expressing a sense of longing with uniquely Brazilian words, Olympians and fans said goodbye to the Rio Games with one last big bash that was both revelatory and a sigh of relief.

The closing ceremony Sunday celebrated the 16-day spectacle that was the Rio Games, which combined numerous highlights with ugly and even bizarre episodes that sometimes overshadowed competition. Cariocas – as Rio’s residents are known – weren’t swayed by the issues that led up to these Olympics, and braved rain and strong winds on the final night to cap their moment in the worldwide spotlight.

While South America’s first Olympics are over, safely and with a grandiose finale, many problems remain. Still, Brazil showed Sunday that it still definitely knows how to party.

“These were marvelous Olympic Games in the ‘marvelous city,’ ” International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach said, playing off the “cidade maravilhosa” nickname of Brazil’s postcard city of inviting coastlines, yearround sun and lush tropical vegetation.

While the stadium erupted in applause at that declaration, a few minutes later there were boos of sadness when Bach announced: “I declare the Games of the XXXI Olympiad closed.”

The closing ceremony in iconic Maracana Stadium was also meant to take care of some business – formally signaling the transition to the 2020 Summer Olympics in Japan.

But Sunday’s party was all about

Brazil, designed to be more low-key than the opening, which focused heavily on Rio. The ceremony featured original footage of Alberto Santos Dumont, the man that Brazilians recognize as the inventor of the airplane. The theme, “Brazilians can do with their bare hands,” was a nod to the emerging economy of the world’s fifth most populous nation.

Dressed in colorful feathers, dozens of dancers formed in the shape of the arches of Lapa, a popular area of Rio akin to Roman ruins, then morphed to make the shape of iconic Sugarloaf before quickly changing again, this time to the official 2016 symbol.

Samba legend Martinho da Vila, whose tunes make their way into many popular telenovelas, sang “Carinhoso,” or “Affectionate.”

Olympians poured in under light rain, waving their flags while many shook their bodies to samba-infused pop that made the stadium feel like a Carnival parade. Britain’s athletes wore shoes with soles that lit up in changing colors of red, white and blue, while Tongan taekwondo athlete Pita Taufatofua danced onstage in a grass skirt as a DJ performed, reprising a moment that captured attention when he carried the flag for his country during the opening ceremony.

The show widened its lens to greater Brazil, a massive country with a land mass slightly larger than the continental United States. There was a tribute to cave paintings of some of the first inhabitants of the Americas, in Serra da Capivara, in Northeastern Brazil, today one of the nation’s poorest regions.

MEN’S BASKETBALL: U.S. 96, SERBIA 66

U.S. men romp to gold

By BRIAN MAHONEY The Associated Press

RIO DE JANEIRO – The trip wasn’t always easy, although they arrived at their expected destination.

The players on the U.S. Olympic men’s basketball team never doubted they would be standing on the gold-medal platform, even after some close calls in Rio and criticisms they lacked the usual big names and bigger wins.

“I know there was kind of a lot of buzz around us not playing well a couple of games, two, three games in the early round,” Carmelo Anthony said, “but the way that we locked in and the way that we focused in to be able to have this gold medal around our necks was special.”

Saving their best for last in a tournament that had been tough, the Americans convincingly won their third straight gold medal, beating Serbia, 9666, on Sunday.

“We came here and despite what people are saying about this group, being less talented and not blowing teams

out, we did a good job of bottling all that up and unleashed it on Serbia,” forward Paul George said.

Kevin Durant scored 30 points in the final game with the national team for Mike Krzyzewski, who took the Americans back to the top and leaves with them there after becoming the first coach to win three Olympic gold medals.

“To go home as gold medalists and leave Coach K off with another gold was one of our main goals as well,” Durant said.

Anthony also picked up his third gold to go with a bronze, becoming the most decorated male in Olympic basketball history.

The U.S. beat Serbia by just 94-91 in pool play, holding on when Bogdan Bogdanovic missed a 3-pointer at the buzzer. This rematch looked nothing like that meeting, but it did resemble the final of the 2014 Basketball World Cup, which the Americans won, 129-92.

“To come out there and play as well as we did against a team that had stepped up their play as well, it showed that we came together at the right

time,” Durant said.

Anthony checked back into the rout in the final minutes so he could grab a seventh rebound, passing David Robinson for the U.S. record with the 125th in his Olympic career. He had already become the leading scorer earlier in the tournament, capping an Olympic career that began with disappointment as a member of the U.S. team that finished third in 2004.

The Americans haven’t lost since, winning 25 straight in the Olympics.

A few of the victories were more difficult than usual in this tournament, where half the Americans’ eight games were decided by 10 points or fewer.

Krzyzewski said it didn’t matter how the Americans won, that there would be no questions as long as they did.

And there was no doubt they would Sunday once Durant heated up.

He had also scored 30 in the 2012 gold-medal game, after he poured in a U.S.-record 38 in one game en route to the MVP of the 2010 world basketball championship. He is already the Americans’ No. 2 career scorer in the Olympics in just two appearances.

The United States’ Ryan Lochte checks his time in a men’s 4x200-meter freestyle heat during the swimming competitions at the 2016 Summer Olympics on Aug. 9 in Rio de Janeiro. fronted them and asked them to pay for the damage; Lochte first offered a very different story.

“I over-exaggerated the story,” Lochte told NBC in an interview that aired Saturday. In a separate interview with a Brazilian network, he blamed the mess on his “immaturity.”

Whatever additional scrutiny U.S. athletes faced after the swimming episode didn’t seem to hurt their performance.

“Hopefully the lesson learned more than anything else is you’re representing your country, you’re representing your sport, you’re representing a movement,” Blackmun said. “So you need to conduct yourself in a way that makes us all proud.”

There were plenty of those examples.

Michael Phelps won six medals in Rio, sprinting star Allyson Felix increased her Olympic gold collection to six and gymnast Simone Biles won five medals plus got the honor of being the U.S. flagbearer for Sunday’s closing ceremony. Phelps carried the flag into the opening of what he says will be his final games, and now the bearer role – as well as maybe the role of being the face of the U.S. Olympic team – belongs to Biles.

“It’s a huge honor,” said the 4-foot8 Biles, though she noted she’s a bit

worried about handling the weight of the flag.

Stories like hers and many others were the ones the USOC would have preferred to see dominate discussion as the Rio Games end, instead of incessant talk about a mess that could have been easily avoided.

“The things that you do are going to be magnified and the mistakes that you make are going to have a light shined on them in a way that’s going to make it very difficult for you to overcome,” Blackmun said.

USA Swimming and the IOC both could sanction Lochte. IOC member Anita DeFrantz of the U.S. said it’s possible that Olympic officials could simply decide to let the USOC handle the matter.

DeFrantz made no effort to hide her disdain for the incident.

“They have forever put themselves on the kind of list that you don’t want to be remembered for,” she told The Associated Press. “I wish I could feel sorry for them. Instead I feel that they should have been honest from the beginning. What they did was wrong, but what was even more wrong, it was ridiculous that they didn’t stand up and tell the truth.

“Who would have it hurt to tell the truth? No one. And who did it hurt not to tell the truth? It insulted a whole nation.”

RIO DE JANEIRO – Two Mongolian wrestling coaches stripped off their clothing to protest the result of a bronze medal match, a bizarre turn in a day where officiating was highly criticized.

The scene began after Uzbekisatn’s Ikhtiyor Navruzov appeared to have lost to Mandakhnaran Ganzorig, 7-6, at 65 kilograms Sunday.

Uzbekistan challenged the scoring, believing that the Mongolian was fleeing instead of fighting because he was running around in celebration with less than 10 seconds left. Navruzov – whose quarterfinal match resulted in the dismissal of all three officials involved after a questionable late call – won his challenge and the match on criteria.

Ganzorig, who had already started celebrating, fell to his knees in disappointment. The Mongolian coaches went much further. Byambarenchin Bayaraa took his shoes and shirt off and threw them to the mat in disgust in front of the officials. Tsenrenbataar Tsostbayar stripped all the way down to his blue briefs. The Brazilian crowd started chanting “Mongolia! Mongolia!”

Kenya’s Kipchoge wins gold in men’s marathon

RIO DE JANEIRO – Eliud Kipchoge of Kenya smiled as he crossed the finish line and later directed cheering fans from the podium. The one color of Olympic medal he lacked in his illustrious career finally is his.

Kipchoge grabbed the lead in the marathon Sunday around the 21-mile mark and finished off his first Olympic victory in this event in a time of 2 hours, 8 minutes and 44 seconds.

Feyisa Lilesa, of Ethiopia, won the silver medal and American Galen Rupp, running only his second marathon, added bronze to the silver he won in the 10,000 meters in London.

Snyder becomes youngest U.S. Olympic wrestling champion

RIO DE JANEIRO – American wrestler Kyle Snyder won gold on Sunday, becoming the youngest Olympic wrestling champion in U.S. history.

The 20-year-old Snyder beat Khetag Goziumov of Azerbaijan, 2-1, for gold at 97 kilograms during the men’s freestyle tournament Sunday.

RIO DE JANEIRO – Whatever celebration the U.S. Olympic Committee has planned for its return home after a wildly successful Rio de Janeiro Games on the competition front will likely be short-lived.

USOC CEO Scott Blackmun promised Sunday that “further action” will be coming, perhaps soon, against 12time Olympic medalist Ryan Lochte and three of his U.S. swimming teammates after the story of an armed robbery following a night of partying unraveled and led to Lochte acknowledging he embellished the tale.

Blackmun stopped short of suggesting what any discipline might be, including whether Lochte should ever be allowed to swim for his country again.

“We all understand that they let down our athletes. They let down Americans,” Blackmun said. “And they really let down our hosts in Rio who did such a wonderful job, and we feel very badly about that. I think we ended up in the right place in terms of being able to shine a light on what really happened there.”

Blackmun said he did not think that the story involving Lochte and the three teammates – all were gold medalists in Rio as part of U.S. swimming relay teams – should be the lasting image of a games where Americans dominated the medal count. Add up all those golds, silvers and bronzes, and no U.S. team ever won more at a fully attended Olympics.

But even USOC chairman Larry Probst said the scandal overshadowed some successes.

“It’s really disappointing that this took place, completely inappropriate,” said Probst, who also is an International Olympic Committee member. “I think the four swimmers are well aware of that now. And unfortunately it has overshadowed some really amazing performances by a lot of great athletes.”

Lochte’s impact on the Rio Games truly started long after his work in the pool was complete. He and teammates Jack Conger, Gunnar Bentz and James Feigen went out clubbing on the night the swimming competition ended. Police have said the swimmers vandalized a bathroom at the gas station and armed guards con-

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff Some studies led doctors to add corticosteroid drugs such as prednisone to the treatment of shingles. However, as more studies of this treatment have been completed, it looks as though these medicines may offer more risks than benefits.

You should also gently rinse your skin rash and blisters once or twice daily with cool water. Your doctor may suggest that you use antibiotic ointment on open areas.

Shingles usually takes seven to 10 days to run its course. Blisters may take several weeks to disappear completely. The duration of pain is highly variable. Most people’s pain decreases within two or three months.

However, a small number of people develop post-herpetic neuralgia and continue to have pain for many months, or even years. Different medications from those used during the attack of shingles are effective.

These include tricyclic drugs, gabapentin and pregabalin. These drugs alter the way your central nervous system perceives pain signals. If the pain is severe, then the more potent drugs used for the pain of shingles may also be helpful. These include oxycodone, morphine and methadone.

Other treatments for post-herpetic neuralgia being evaluated, but as yet unproven, include capsaicin, topical lidocaine and acupuncture. A shingles vaccine is recommended for most adults age 60 and older. Even though treatment is effective, nothing beats preventing the condition in the first place.

Dear Dr. K: I’ve been diagnosed with shingles. What can I take for the pain?

Dear Reader: Shingles, also known as herpes zoster or just zoster, is caused by the varicella-zoster virus. It is the same virus that causes chickenpox. Once you have had chickenpox, the varicella-zoster virus remains in your body’s nerve tissues. It is inactive, but it can be reactivated later in life. This causes shingles.

When the virus reactivates, it causes a burning or tingling sensation in the affected areas. A few days later, the virus causes a blistery rash. Your affected skin may be so painful and sensitive that you cannot even stand having your clothing touching the area. One patient of mine with shingles on his forearm switched for several weeks to wearing a short-sleeved shirt to the office, something he never had worn to work before.

If you’re over age 50 and have had shingles pain for less than three days, the current recommendations call for doctors to prescribe antiviral medicine to kill the virus that causes shingles. (If you are younger than 50 and very uncomfortable from shingles that began in the last three days, your doctor may still prescribe antiviral therapy.)

The two medicines recommended most often are famciclovir (Famvir) and valacyclovir (Valtrex). These antiviral medications not only help shorten the days of pain that you have, they also help reduce the risk of long-lasting shingles pain, a condition called post-herpetic neuralgia.

The pain that accompanies shingles can be intense. If the antiviral medicine does not provide enough relief, you can take additional pain medicines. Start with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and acetaminophen. If necessary, your doctor will prescribe more potent pain medicines; these include codeine, tramadol and (when the pain is very severe) oxycodone.

Dear Abby: For DEAR ABBY health reasons, I had been Jeanne walking during Phillips my lunch break at work. That ended last summer when someone unleashed his dog between his house and his car. The dog saw me on the sidewalk, charged, jumped on me and bit me. Thankfully, I put my arm up, so it only got my arm, but now I’m terrified to walk outside for fear of being attacked again.

The bite was nothing compared to the trauma. I’m afraid the fear will be with me for the rest of my life. No one thinks their dog would hurt someone, but I learned the hard way it’s not always true. I wish dog owners would be more responsible, not only for their sake, but also for their dog’s and other people’s. Do you have any thoughts? – Shell-shocked In Michi-

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Take the initiative and make changes that will encourage a better domestic life or the formation of a business you can run from home.

Variety is good for the soul. Engage in the things that excite you mentally and physically and will bring you greater financial security. Live, love and laugh.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Your attitude will make a difference as to how others treat you. Optimism is a good way to attract opportunities. If you believe in yourself, so will everyone else.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Cut to the chase and take care of legal, contractual and financial mat-

ters quickly. If you let your emotions run the show, you will lose your equilibrium. Don’t let someone else take charge.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Secretive actions will lead to trouble. Honesty will bring about the results you want in the quickest manner. Refuse to let anyone bully or put pressure on you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Put your energy into an employment search, personal improvements and striving for financial gain. Size up your situation and make reasonable changes that will lead to concrete results. Ask and you will receive.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Nothing will be as it appears. Don’t rely on hearsay; get to the root of the matter and decide what’s best for you. Now is not the time to be a follower.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Emotional game-playing is best ignored. You are best off focusing on personal growth and doing what will bring the highest rewards rather than trying to accommodate someone else’s demands.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Embrace change, work hard and strive to turn a plan into a reality.

Live life according to your rules, and don’t give in to others’ emotional demands. Be true to yourself.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You need to put greater emphasis on love, romance and relationships.

You can bring about favorable changes if you work with someone you care about to build a stable future.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Don’t leave anything to chance. Making plans that you can adjust along

the way will lead to your success. Stay alert and be ready to take advantage of an opportunity.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – You will come out on top if you are prepared to give your all. Making plans with children or family or socializing with peers or friends will boost your confidence.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Take command, but don’t antagonize someone who is stubborn or likely to fight back. Keep your life simple and focus on personal improvements, not on trying to change others.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Unexpected changes must not be allowed to throw you off course.

If you adjust to whatever transpires and carry on, you will reach your goal and surpass your expectations.

Benjamin Disraeli, twice the British prime minister in the 19th century, said, “Patience is a necessary ingredient of genius.”

One clear difference between bridge geniuses -- experts -- and less-capable players is the speed with which they take tricks when on defense.

In this deal, how should the declarer-play and defense proceed after West leads the heart king against three no-trump?

It was reasonable for North to use Stayman, despite his poor spades. If South also had four spades and weak diamonds, four spades could have been the best contract.

South starts with seven top tricks: one spade, one heart, one diamond and four clubs. He has finesses available in both rounded suits, and it is logical to start with the diamonds, because if that finesse wins, declarer is home.

South should duck dummy’s heart ace twice and take the third round.

In this way, he learns the good news that hearts are 4-3, not 5-2. Then he takes the diamond finesse. What happens next?

Many Wests would win the trick to cash the last heart. But then South will get into the dummy with the club queen and, perforce, take the spade finesse, and with this layout he would collect two spades, one heart, two diamonds and four clubs.

A genius West will duck the first diamond. Then declarer would surely cross to the club queen and repeat the diamond finesse. Now West produces his king, cashes the last heart, and exits with a club. Then South cannot get into the dummy to take the spade finesse and will end down one.
