D-210 seeks inspector general Board receives reports on life safety costs

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – Lincoln-Way School District 210 officials are seeking to fill a position for an independent inspector general.

Superintendent Scott Tingley presented to the board Thursday a Request for Qualifications for an inspector general who will investigate complaints of waste, fraud and fiscal mismanagement.

Tingley said that the position will not be full time, but paid at an hourly rate. According to the request, he would interview candidates – from individuals or from firms – who meet the qualifications for the position.

“I did receive five or six different phone calls and letters that were interested in that position,” Tingley said.

Maintenance costs

A buildings and grounds report to the board Thursday presented the life safety survey results for Central, Annex and East buildings in the district.

The estimated cost for the work identified in the life safety surveys amounted to about $835,000 to be completed by July 2020.

The report stated that cost estimates are based on contractors performing all the work, although much of the work considered minor could be completed

Lincoln-Way D-210 OKs short-term borrowing plan

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – The Lincoln-Way School District 210 board approved issuing up to $3 million in short-term borrowing. The board unanimously passed the resolution Thursday for tax anticipation warrants, which are used by districts to finance operations before property taxes are received.

In September, the board approved $20 million in the tax anticipation warrants that Superintendent Scott Tingley said were necessary to finish that month with positive fund balances.

Thursday’s resolution stated that the $3 million in short-term borrowing will be used by the district to pay for the district’s educational expenses. The

• Relevant information • Marketing Solutions • Community Advocates

The request will be issued Friday.

Proposals will be due by April 19. Interviews will be scheduled from May 1 to 9.

After a review, a recommendation will be brought before the board May 18.

In November, Tingley proposed that the board pursue a policy for a nonpartisan third party to investigate allegations of fraud and inappropriate activity to help with audit findings that claimed the district lacked fraud prevention or detection.

In February, the board approved the policy to employ an inspector general.

borrowing will be drawn against and in anticipation of taxes levied for this year.

In past years, the district has been reliant on warrants. Tingley has said the district has to “get out of the business of borrowing money.”

During discussion of the delays in state categorical payments to the district, board member Christopher Lucchetti asked finance director Kelly Luzzo whether the district was comfortable from a cashflow standpoint with the $3 million in tax anticipation warrants.

Luzzo said that the district should be comfortable with it.

“We looked at that pretty closely over the last couple of weeks just to make sure that we’re in a good shape if we don’t receive money from the state,” she said.

Property tax freeze

Tingley presented to the board Thursday an overview of the effect of a property tax freeze analysis.

Gov. Bruce Rauner and other state politicians have proposed property tax freezes for either two years or on a permanent basis.

If the district followed a two-year freeze, it would lose $11.7 million during the course of five years, according to the district’s analysis.

“That’d be significant for us, obviously,” Tingley said.

LOCAL BRIEF Police: Beer truck spills several cases in downtown Joliet

JOLIET – A beer delivery driver was likely the subject of several toasts by passers-by Thursday in downtown Joliet.

About 11 a.m. the driver of a Budweiser delivery truck was turning at Cass and Collins streets when several cases of Bud Light bottles fell off the truck, Joliet Police Sgt. Patrick Cardwell said.

“Several citizens noticed and started helping themselves to the beer,” Cardwell said.

Cardwell said staff at the nearby Burger King called police after some of the witnesses to the spill started enjoying the salvage in the parking lot.

No one was injured. The truck driver was not cited.

POISONING AWARENESS

Plainfield fire district installs carbon monoxide detectors to save lives

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Almost four months have passed since Denise Carlini and her daughter, Morgan Becker, died Nov. 21, from carbon monoxide poisoning in their north Plainfield home.

Three pets died with them, and the five responding Plainfield police officers who conducted a well-being check at the home received medical treatment because of the colorless, odorless, deadly gas.

Ray Carlini last spoke to his wife the day before. He was in the hospital after a knee surgery.

“This is a sneaky death that people don’t think about,” said Ray, who was with Denise for nearly 19 years, and married for almost 10. “Carbon monoxide was the furthest thing from my mind – until this happened.”

Family, friends and first responders continue to cope with the losses.

However, Denise and Morgan weren’t the only people lost to carbon monoxide poisoning in Plainfield in 2016, as another resident died earlier in the year.

But since that November day, countless people stepped up to make sure it doesn’t happen again in Plainfield.

A month later, the Plainfield Fire Protection District partnered with Kidde, a manufacturer of fire safety products that donated 150 carbon monoxide detectors to the district. Officials reached out to the Will County Center for Community Concerns, Plainfield School District 202 and others to identify residences that were in need of the life-saving detectors.

Anyone interested in getting a free detector installation, along with proper service and usage tips, simply can call the Plainfield fire department. In February, they began installing detectors in homes throughout the area.

Shanta Stewart, who has been in her Plainfield home since December 2015, only had a smoke detector.

“I recently read a story about a family dying from carbon monoxide poisoning,” she said, referring to the November incident. “People should definitely take advantage of this.”

Stewart said she had a scare when she was using the oven and noticed a natural gas smell. She immediately stopped using the oven. Nothing happened, but she’s hoping the detector

“This is a sneaky death that people don’t think about.

Carbon monoxide was the furthest thing from my mind – until this happened.”

Ray Carlini

widower of Denise Carlini, who died with her daughter in 2016 from carbon monoxide poisoning will take care of that in the future.

The lllinois Department of Public Health describes carbon monoxide as a non-irritating, odorless, colorless gas that is somewhat lighter than air.

A byproduct of incomplete burning of coal, wood, charcoal, natural gas, fuel oil, kerosene, gasoline, fabrics and plastics, it is the leading cause of poisoning deaths in the U.S.

Winery group plans to rebuild old brewery

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Developers of a future winery plan to rebuild a long-gone brewery building on the site.

The building was torn down in 1910, but one of its walls still lines Bridge Street.

The Joliet Zoning Board of Appeals approved a variance on Thursday allowing a zero setback for the building, which would be rebuilt in the same proximity to Bridge Street as the old brewery.

Phil Soto with Sehring Property Holdings said the plan is to replicate the old brewery building as much as possible.

“The wall was part of the old brewery,” Soto said. “You can see (on the wall) where there was a door in the wall and a window.”

Sehring Property Holdings, named after the Fred. Sehring Brewing Co. that occupied the site before it became the seat of the Diocese of Joliet, last year acquired the three buildings from the diocese. The diocese moved its offices to Crest Hill in late 2013.

The new owners have uncovered the foundation of the old brewery since cleaning up the site and also have found a large amount of old limestone, which

the site, known as “The Castle” because of its limestone walls and turrets, will be used for events and wine sales.

The group also plans to distill whiskey at the site.

Other plans include growing grapes on site, which Soto said he has learned was done by the Sehring company. He said the brewer also made wine.

Soto told the zoning board that business operations would be on evenings and weekends. Events could be as large as 80 to 100 people.

Two residents spoke in favor of the plans.

“We think it’s a good use for the building,” John Sheridan, president of the Cunningham Neighborhood Council, told the zoning board. “We’re looking for thriving businesses on the near West Side.”

The winery property is in the St. John’s neighborhood, and that association has expressed support for the project as well.

Neighbor Mary Ann Barcus told the zoning board she is “quite in favor” of the project.

Barcus said the property owners talk with neighbors about their plans.

“They’re very conscious of the neighbors and the neighbors’ opinions of what’s going on,” Barcus said.

Laraway gets preliminary approval for school plans

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Laraway School District representatives on Thursday presented plans for a new school to two city panels that gave their approval both to construction of the new building and to an annexation agreement to sell the old one.

The new school on Rowell Avenue will include a baseball field and softball field. A running track and soccer field also are planned, although they might not be built immediately. Finally, neighbors of the nearby Sugar Creek subdivision expressed concerns about proper drainage – concerns which resulted in the addition of two detention ponds to the construction plans.

Laraway Superintendent Joe Salmieri told the Zoning Board of Appeals that the Laraway Road location “has really become a safety issue for our students, staff and visitors.”

The school lies on a major truck route for trucks using CenterPoint Intermodal Center-Joliet. District officials expect to begin construction on the new school in

April or May and open in fall 2018.

The zoning board approved a special-use permit needed to build the school at 1715 Rowell Avenue.

The Plan Commission approved an annexation agreement Thursday that would bring the 40 acres where the existing school stands into the city of Joliet. Developers typically want land in a municipality to have access to city water and sewers.

Both the special use permit and annexation agreement will be presented to the city council for final approval. Laraway already has begun an auction to seek a buyer for the school property by an April 19 bid deadline.

“If not, we’re back to the drawing board and looking how to attract a buyer to that building,” Salmieri told the Plan Commission.

Whether or not a buyer emerges, the plan to build the new school will continue, Salmieri said. Laraway will continue to use the old school until it moves into the new one.

Plan Commissioner Fredrick Moore asked what plans there were to secure

“Until the property is sold, we’ll still be using the bus barn and the athletic facilities,” Salmieri said.

Elizabeth Sodic from the Sugar Creek subdivision requested that the neighborhood be kept informed about the project because of concerns about drainage.

“We’re downhill, and we’re on a creek,” Sodic told the zoning board. “Water goes down that way, and so does silt.”

The school district has had a public meeting with Sugar Creek residents to discuss drainage plans.

“We have all intentions of being good neighbors and making sure we keep the community involved,” he said.

“

We do not need another hashtag in America, right? So we need to be aware of our rights so that we do not have one person in this assembly become a hashtag. ... It is possible to stand up for your legal rights, but yet also comply.

”

Amy Melton

Joliet attorney and founder of the AWARE Project

Joliet students updated on law enforcement safety Police, lawyers, judges aimed to inform youth how to behave when they are pulled over

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Police officers, judges and lawyers gave Joliet Central High School students a crash course Thursday on safely dealing with law enforcement.

A presentation by the AWARE Project inside the school’s auditorium gave students information on what to

do to prevent any conflict when in police-related situations such as when they’re pulled over.

Attorney Shari Hale said she did not want to see the students become a Twitter hashtag, such as the ones that were created in the wake of the deaths of Sandra Bland and Eric Garner in their fatal encounters with the police.

“We do not need another hashtag in America, right?” Hale said. “So we need to be aware of our rights so that we do not have one person in this assembly become a hashtag.”

The AWARE Project was founded

by Joliet attorney Amy Melton to inform the public about what to do in traffic situations with the police, as well as informing them of their legal rights.

She told the students not to fight

their arrest with the police “in the streets,” but do it either in the courtroom or file a complaint with the police department.

“It is possible to stand up for your legal rights, but yet also comply,” she said.

Joliet police Det. David Jackson showed a video about the right way to handle a traffic stop that told them they have the right to refuse consent to searches and ask officers if they are being detained or if they are free to go.

Hale talked about the Miranda rights and that when students are offered the right to remain silent in a situation where they’re being arrested, they should do so until they receive adequate legal representation.

She said that even if their family believes they can’t afford an attorney,

one will be appointed to them.

Melton said that when students are pulled over, they should turn on their car’s interior light and put their hands on the wheel because officers need to see them.

She said they should give their driver’s license, registration, name, address and date of birth when asked.

However, they can choose not to answer an officer’s questions on where they’re going, if they’re in a gang or other questions, but to do so in a calm and respectful fashion.

“Having an attitude just doesn’t do any good. All it’s going to do is escalate things to the next level,” Melton said. “Next thing you know, tensions are high, you’re dealing with a force situation, and God forbid we end up with another Ferguson situation.”

BRAIDWOOD – Police say a 22-yearold parolee had a sexual relationship with a 15-year-old Braidwood girl.

Jason M. Escalante, of the 100 block of North Hickory Street, met the girl through Facebook and had been in contact with her for at least three months, Chief Nick Ficarello said.

About two weeks ago, the girl’s friends notified school staff, Jason M. who then called inves- Escalante tigators, Ficarello said.

“We found text messages showing there was an ongoing relationship of a sexual nature,” Ficarello said. “We also have reason to believe he has had contact with another 15-year-old girl from the area and are investigating that relationship as well.”

When police found Escalante at 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, he was at Goodrich Park on Maple Street with a 17-yearold girl in his car, Ficarello said.

Escalante was arrested on charges of aggravated criminal sexual assault and sexual exploitation of a minor and booked into the Will County jail.

• CARBON MONOXIDE

Continued from page 3

RIGHT: A Plainfield firetruck sits March 8 parked along a suburban driveway in Plainfield.

In the Carlini case, inspectors have tied the poisoning to a malfunctioning boiler, which since has been decommissioned.

Ray just returned to the home last week after four or five weeks in Florida to clear his head, he said.

But before Christmas, friends of the Carlini family banded together with The Women of Plainfield Moose and started a GoFundMe campaign to raise $7,500 for carbon monoxide detectors. Rod Baker Ford fronted the money for the 300 detectors so they could be distributed at Plainfield food drives before the holiday. The

BELOW: Plainfield firefighters install several carbon monoxide detectors March 8 at a suburban home in Plainfield.

GoFundMe account raised more than $8,400 and reimbursed the dealership.

Ray has been vocal about the need for people to install detectors, saying it has been a bit therapeutic for him.

“I never want to hear that somebody passed away because of not being aware,” Ray said. “We need more awareness. [A campaign] like ‘smoking kills’… carbon monoxide kills.”

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 430 Americans die each year from carbon monoxide poisoning. Thousands more are sickened by it but live. Many studies show that millions of American homes do not have functioning carbon monoxide detectors.

STATE

State could lose $40B in Medicaid support Illinois Rep. Greg Harris, D-Chicago, speaks to reporters Dec. 1 at the state Capitol in Springfield. Illinois health care experts said the state would face a $40 billion loss in federal Medicaid support under a health care overhaul proposed by congressional Republicans.

By KIANNAH SEPEDA–MILLER The Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois could face nearly $40 billion in lost federal Medicaid support over 10 years under a health care overhaul proposed last week by congressional Republicans, a health industry spokesman told lawmakers Thursday.

Three state House committees heard testimony from experts on how major changes to Medicaid outlined in the American Health Care Act could affect Illinois recipients.

The GOP plan to replace former President Barack Obama’s health care law would phase out an expansion of Medicaid and cap federal spending for the entire program going forward.

President Donald Trump supports the proposal.

Illinois Health and Hospital Association spokesman David Gross testified that Illinois would lose at least $40 billion in federal Medicaid funding over the act’s 10-year lifespan.

The association arrived at this figure by taking Illinois’ share of the nation’s Medicaid expansion population and multiplying it by the $880 billion in reductions estimated by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office under the Republican plan. Gross said

Trump seeks to nix Great Lakes restoration funding

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. – President Donald Trump wants to eliminate federal support of a program that addresses the Great Lakes’ most pressing environmental threats.

Trump’s 2018 budget released Thursday would remove all funding for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, which has received strong support from members of Congress in both parties since President Barack Obama established it in 2009.

The program has pumped more than $2.2 billion into the eight-state region for projects that have removed toxic wastes from industrial harbors, fought invasive species such as Asian carp, restored wildlife habitat and supported efforts to prevent harmful algal blooms.

the cuts would jeopardize patient care.

Democratic Rep. Greg Harris of Chicago, who chairs the appropriations committee for human services, said one in four Illinois citizens receives Medicaid benefits and could be affected.

Illinois currently devotes $10 billion in state funds each year to Medicaid, or about one-quarter of the state’s general fund. The federal government currently matches that amount.

The initiative has generally received about $300 million a year.

Rauner aide seeks CPS support of pension plan

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner’s education secretary is urging Chicago Public Schools officials to back Senate Republican legislation to overhaul pension programs statewide.

Beth Purvis said Wednesday the plan would provide $215 million for retirement accounts administered by Chicago schools.

The legislation is separate from Democratic Senate President John Cullerton’s plan. That is part of the Senate’s “grand bargain” to try to break a two-year stalemate with Rauner over the budget.

Purvis wants support for proposals by Republican senators Jil Tracy of Quincy and Michael Connelly of Lisle. She said lawmakers could approve them quickly and Rauner would sign them. One measure would give state employees a choice of more benefits while working or raises in retirement.

The other creates a defined-contribution program for new employees.

Harris said lawmakers would need to find ways to fill the $4 billion-a-year hole.

“That’s money the state has to come up with, out of tax dollars,” Harris said. Otherwise, he explained, Illinois would have to cover less people, offer fewer services or cut rates to care providers.

The Republican plan would phase out the Affordable Care Act’s nationwide expansion of Medicaid to 11 mil-

Paramedic rescues baby alive from submerged SUV

ST. LOUIS – A fast-acting paramedic dove into the frigid water of an Illinois lake where a SUV was submerged on Thursday and found an infant floating inside, then administered CPR on the hood and swam the child to shore, authorities said. The baby is expected to make a full recovery.

The infant was one of seven siblings who survived a tragic chain of events that left one person dead in a house fire. A second body was recovered from the lake where the baby was found.

It all began at 5:15 a.m. in Glen Carbon, Illinois, when fire broke out at a home owned by Cristy Lynn Campbell. An adult died in the fire but six children, siblings ranging up to age 14, escaped.

Glen Carbon is about 30 miles east of St. Louis.

Sheriff John Lakin said the person killed has not been identified, but Campbell’s estranged husband and the father of the children, Justin Campbell, has not been accounted for.

lion additional low earners. 650,000 Illinois citizens have gained coverage under the expansion, the federal match for which would begin to diminish in 2020 under the proposal. Gross said two thirds of those enrolled under the expansion could face restricted federal coverage by 2021 depending on fluctuations in income or other circumstances.

The overhaul also would cap federal support given to states for Medicaid recipients instead of matching whatever states decide to spend.

Republican Rep. Tom Demmer of Dixon contended that although the Affordable Care Act succeeded in extending coverage, it also has led to increased premiums and restricted choices for individuals buying insurance on the state market.

Roberta Rakove, a spokeswoman for the Chicago-based Sinai Health System, told lawmakers that Medicaid expansion made it easier for Sinai’s network of charitable facilities to care for patients regardless of insurance status. Before the expansion, she said, 15 percent of Sinai patients were uninsured. That figure fell by more than half under the Affordable Care Act. “The expansion has taken us to a new level,” she said. “It’s taken us beyond survival.”

Chicago police leader meets with U.S. attorney general

CHICAGO – Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson asked U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Thursday to send more federal prosecutors and law enforcement agents to the city to focus on gun crimes, but did not discuss whether Sessions would push for court enforcement of reforms of the beleaguered police force.

Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said after the 90-minute meeting Sessions had with Johnson and other police chiefs in Washington, D.C., Sessions was “receptive to the idea that the federal government needs to take a more aggressive stance on taking on bad guys with guns,” but did not commit to anything specific.

Johnson also asked Sessions to establish in Chicago the kind of partnership that Denver and other cities have with the federal government that would allow the police department to access a massive database that helps investigators trace guns by analyzing shell casings found at crime scenes.

Trump’s budget increases military spending by $54B

By ANDREW TAYLOR The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump’s new $1.15 trillion budget would reshape America’s government with the broad, conservative strokes he promised as a candidate, ordering generous increases for the military, slashing domestic programs and riling both fellow Republicans and Democrats by going after favored programs.

The president’s initial budget proposal, submitted to Congress on Thursday, would boost defense spending by $54 billion, the largest increase since Ronald Reagan’s military buildup of the 1980s. That means deep cuts elsewhere – the environment, agriculture, the arts – but Trump said that’s imperative to take on the Islamic State group and others in a dangerous world.

“To keep Americans safe, we have made the tough choices that have been put off for too long,” he declared in a statement titled “America First” that accompanied the budget.

Or, as Budget Director Mick Mulvaney said, “This is a hard power budget, not a soft power budget.”

It’s not entirely in line with Trump’s campaign pledges.

It would make a big down payment on the U.S.-Mexico border wall, which Trump repeatedly promised the Mexicans would pay for. American taxpayers will, at least for now.

Thursday’s proposal calls for an immediate $1.4 billion infusion with an additional $2.6 billion planned for the 2018 budget year starting Oct. 1.

Parts of Trump’s spending plan for the next fiscal year angered both congressional Democrats and Republicans who will have the final say on it.

While it targets Democratic priorities such as housing, community development and the

environment, it also would slash GOP sacred cows such as aid to rural schools and subsidized airline service to Trump strongholds, and it would raise fees on participants in the federal flood insurance program.

The budget pursues frequent targets of the GOP’s staunchest conservatives, eliminating the National Endowment for the Arts, legal aid for the poor, low-income heating assistance and the AmeriCorps national service program established by President Bill Clinton.

But Midwestern Republicans, including Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio, were upset by cuts to the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative.

Southern Republicans, such as Rep. Hal Rogers of Kentucky, lashed out at cuts he called “draconian, careless and counterproductive.”

One target of the budget is the Appalachian Regional Commission, which helps communities in the region.

Trump’s proposal covers only roughly onefourth of the estimated $4 trillion total federal budget. This is the discretionary portion that Congress passes each year, not addressing taxes, Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

Nor does it make predictions about deficits and the economy. Those big-picture details are due in May, and are sure to show large – probably permanent – budget deficits.

Trump has vowed not to cut Social Security and Medicare and is dead set against raising taxes.

As for Thursday’s proposal, Republicans praised the president for beefing up the Pentagon, but they were far less enthusiastic about accepting Trump’s recipe for doing so without adding to the nation’s $20 trillion debt.

“While we support more funding for our military and defense, we must maintain support for our farmers and ranchers,” said North Dakota Republican John Hoeven, blasting a 21 percent cut to the Agriculture Department’s budget.

If AG Madigan’s plan succeeds, GUEST VIEW Migration into Canada Rauner’s bargaining power cut If Attorney General Lisa Madigan succeeds in convincing the Illinois Supreme Court to consider ordering the state to stop paying employees without an appropriation, and the governor’s legal team uses the same arguments as it did in St. Clair County, we could be in for a highly unusual argument.

First a little background. The Illinois Constitution and state laws are clear that no state money can be expended without a legal appropriation, which is legislative speak for a special kind of bill that lists how much government agencies, commissions, etc. can spend on various items.

As you probably know, the state hasn’t had a “real” budget in a couple of years. A budget is basically just a collection of appropriations.

The last legal appropriation for state employee payroll expired on June 30, 2015. Negotiations between the governor and legislative leaders stalled and shortly thereafter a judge in St. Clair County ordered the state to pay its workers anyway.

Everybody back then figured this would probably be a temporary situation, so nobody squawked too much. It’s been done before for a few weeks. No big deal.

Except, as we are all painfully aware, the governmental stalemate has continued for more than 20 months. In January, Attorney General Madigan got tired of waiting for the governor and the General Assembly to cut a deal and filed a legal motion in St. Clair County to vacate that 2015 order.

She lost. We’re not sure exactly why because the judge didn’t issue a formal opinion, but the governor’s office was at that hearing and filed a brief opposing AG Madigan’s motion.

The governor doesn’t want AG Madigan to win because his bargaining position will be greatly weakened if the courts effectively shut down the state by ruling that money can’t be spent without appropriations. Rauner is demanding some business-related reforms, a property tax freeze and a few other things before he’ll agree to a tax hike to balance the state’s infamously out of whack budget.

So, the man who once bragged that he would use the crisis of the state not having a budget to force through his preferred legislative changes now wants to avoid a much worse crisis that would compel him to abandon his demands in order to prevent the catastrophe of an actual government shutdown.

Got all that? OK. One of the arguments used by the governor’s lawyers when they won at the county level last month was that a bunch of state laws are in reality “continuing appropria-

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Rich Miller tions.” A continuing appropriation is a law mandating that certain state bills be paid in perpetuity.

The General Assembly isn’t required to pass new appropriations every year and the governor isn’t required to sign them into law.

It’s automatic pilot spending.

But the governor’s lawyers want to redefine what a continuing appropriation is.

According to the governor’s legal brief, “there are many statutes that function as continuing appropriations by mandating the State to perform specific services. Employees who provide those services must continue to be paid.”

Examples the governor’s legal eagles used included a state statute which mandates that the Illinois Department on Aging “shall exercise, administer and enforce all rights, powers and duties vested in the Department on Aging by the Illinois Act on the Aging.”

Complying with these and other mandates, they claimed, “necessitates paying personnel” because compliance can’t be accomplished without employees.

The governor’s legal team then argued that it would take a lot of time to sift through all state laws to find these mandates, and that the task needed to be followed up by “evidentiary hearings to assess what employees are necessary to provide such services.”

Such a process could take months, if not years. There are a ton of those mandates in the state statute books.

Needless to say, if such an argument prevailed, it would give the executive branch almost limitless authority to spend taxpayer money as it pleased. And it wouldn’t end with employee salaries, either.

If the Department on Aging determined that it needed a big new Chicago office building to perform its mandated functions, or had to let millions of dollars in new contracts, or had to purchase a dozen new vehicles, then, under the governor’s legal logic it could go right ahead and do so without any legislative approval whatsoever.

The governor’s team references what it considers to be favorable court rulings from 1953 and 1974, but this is either one of the most blatant executive power grab attempts I’ve seen or the biggest legal stretch ever.

It’s happening. But not the way people thought it would.

In recent weeks, people began streaming from the United States into Canada.

But they’re not disappointed Democrats, disgruntled Californians or, for that matter, anyone who might have voted for Hillary Clinton.

The majority of the estimated 3,800 individuals illegally stealing across the world’s longest unprotected border into Canada since Feb. 3 are anxious refugees and undocumented immigrants fearing detention or deportation and seeking asylum.

According to London’s Daily Mail, most of those slipping across America’s northern border this winter are carrying passports from Syria, Somalia, Burundi, Eritrea, Ghana and Sudan, Turkey, Columbia or Mexico.

Many obtain tourist visas to the United States then jump into airport taxis and deliver themselves to Canadian border checkpoints where they asked for asylum. Others, laden with luggage still bearing airline tags, walk across fields, wade through ditches and push baby strollers in deep snow from Quebec to Manitoba to elude Canadian border patrols.

When seeking office, then-candidate Donald Trump promised to deport or incarcerate 2 million to 3 million undocumented immigrants with criminal records living in the United States.

The surge of asylum seekers has grown since now-President Trump issued his ban temporarily barring travelers from seven Muslim-majority countries. They are now flowing into Canada.

Since Jan. 1, according to the RCMP in Manitoba, located to the north of North Dakota, almost 200 asylum seekers have braved freezing temperatures and sometimes waist-deep snow to cross the border into Emerson, Manito-

ba – population 689.

An estimated 1,200 have illegally entered Quebec since November, according to the Canada Border Services Agency.

Border patrol union officials are calling for 1,000 more workers and conservatives in Parliament are calling for a refugee strategy and housing and support service resources are being stressed in rural areas where the crossings are happening.

Canada adheres to the Canada-US Safe Third Country Agreement of 2004.

In this, any one in the US, which is considered a safe country, cannot request to be admitted into Canada as a refugee.

However, refugee status may be requested once the individual is on Canadian soil. Generally 60 percent are accepted.

Border patrols at official border crossings are turning back those who already have made refugee claims in the United States – prompting the increase in illegal entries.

An estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States may now fear for their future.

Canada, which has vast, unpopulated spaces and dwindling family sizes, may be looking to a wave of immigrants to fill their nation.

But Canada also has not experienced its own 9/11 attack by irrational militants determined to destroy America.

The Nation to the North is free to open its borders to anyone it wants. But to avoid its own Trump-like backlash somewhere down the road, Canada should heed the warnings of their own government officials who are calling for a strategy to cope with these unexpected visitors, as well as the call of the Canadian border patrol to have more workers.

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

THE HERALD-NEWS GIRLS BASKETBALL PLAYER OF THE YEAR

GIRL FOR ALL SEASONS

Minooka’s Bachmann named Herald-News Girls Basketball Player of the Year

By KAITLYN JASNICA

kjasnica@shawmedia.com MINOOKA – Athletes can’t play multiple sports.

When high school comes, it’s time to choose. If they play more than one, they certainly can’t excel in all of them.

Don’t tell Brooklyn Bachmann that.

The Minooka senior holds school records and has received countless accolades in track, volleyball and basketball. In the past four years, Bachmann has been viewed as an athlete who can do well at any sport she plays.

Now she can be viewed as something else, The Herald-News All-Area Girls Basketball Player of the Year.

Bachmann always has considered herself an underdog, and because there always were talented athletes around her, she considered herself to be a role player. In her senior year, however, she became the headliner.

Despite the focus being on her, she averaged more than 20 points and was a virtually unstoppable force.

“This year, if we wanted to win, we needed someone to step up into that leadership role,” Bachmann said.

“Being double- and triple-teamed and still being able to play under all of that pressure, I think I proved something to everyone.

“I know a lot of colleges were talking to me. A lot of the larger ones wouldn’t give me full offers because they weren’t certain since I played three sports.

“Having people doubt my abilities just because I don’t play basketball full time, because I don’t go to a bigtime school that has won state, and knowing that I am an underrated play-

You can play multiple sports and still be at the top.”

THE HARD WORK

It takes a lot to be the leading scorer in school history and to hold the season scoring record.

It takes more to hold the school pole vault record in indoor (9-6) and outdoor (10-6) track and field and hold the school and season assist record in volleyball.

Bachmann’s sisters – AnnMarie, Bethany and Cierra – all play basketball, and being exposed to the sport at

a young age made her passionate. In fourth grade, she saw AnnMarie make it to state and realized that she wanted to be there one day as well.

People might believe Bachmann was able to make it to state for volleyball, track and individually for basketball (3-point shooting) because of her natural athletic ability. It’s more than that, however.

• BACHMANN

Continued from page 19 “I know that I was born with a natural talent, but it wasn’t just that I woke up and was athletic,” Bachmann said. “When I was younger, it would be snowing outside and I’d be in my garage ballhandling. I’d run miles outside by myself. No one ever saw what I was doing. Everyone just thought that I was naturally an athlete. There is a lot of work behind the scenes.”

So what is behind the scenes?

She gets up every morning to do an ab workout, and if there is time, she’ll fit in a workout. At school, she elected to take the strength-and-conditioning gym class that the football players attend. After school and practice, she does ladders in her garage then goes through ballhandling circuits.

Over the weekend, she will start by running a mile and then practices her shooting. In the summer, she’ll show up to practice two hours early and dribble for 30 minutes and shoot until practice starts.

On top of that all, Bachmann has had a fixed healthy diet since she entered her freshman year and essentially eats no junk food.

It has been the same routine throughout the past four years, and that has ended in similar results throughout her high school career.

“Brooklyn has always been a leader since she entered the building because her work ethic has always been at the top,” Minooka coach Ray Liberatore said. “Her love and enthusiasm for basketball has been the same all four years. She just loves playing basketball, and because of that she kept improving every year. She’s been a model of consistency. You can depend on her.”

THE TOUGH DECISION

Bachmann started her first varsity game freshman year and scored more than 20 points.

In her senior year, with about 15 games left, she had scored 20 or more points in all but one game.

She attributes much of her success to her teammates. She said they gave her great passes, set good screens and scored when the other teams focused on her. When they succeeded, she could shoot more.

Another part of her success comes from her mentality. She always leaves everything on the floor and plays fearlessly in each sport. She hustles for the ball and throws her body onto the

“Every time you get the opportunity to touch the ball, you have to act like it’s your last time,” Bachmann said. “You don’t know when you’re going to have an injury or when you’re not going to be able to play anymore.

I don’t want to have any regrets when I’m done playing in college. I want to give it my all every time.”

Bachmann balanced multiple sports throughout her athletic career, but has decided to focus on only one sport in college. She wants to see how far she can excel in one area.

Now came the hardest part of her career. Which sport should she pick?

With multiple volleyball and basketball offers, she still didn’t know which to choose toward the end of basketball season. One moment changed that.

“Every time I touch a ball or I’m in a game, I don’t want it to end,” Bachmann said. “When we lost in regionals and I wasn’t committed, it was heartbreaking. I wanted to continue to play.”

Bachmann will continue her basketball career at Bemidji State University in Minnesota. Now, she will

aim to be the special player who people pay attention to at the next level.

“Every night that I send scores, it would be 20 points, 22 points, 25 points [for Bachmann],” Liberatore said. “To do that at any level of basketball, especially varsity, you have to be a special player. That’s what most people appreciate when they watch her play.

It’s her ability to be able to do that and score from a lot of different ways. She can hit a three. She scores from the free-throw line. Her drives to the basket are really special.

“If you watch her play night in and night out like I’ve been able to do for the past four years, you appreciate how consistent she is. That’s what she was this year for us.”

Bachmann led Minooka to its best record in basketball, a second-place state finish in volleyball and has one more season to have an effect in track and field. Looking back at the past four years, setting records and earning accolades in multiple sports will be something special for her to remember.

Right now, it feels great.

“It feels really good,” Bachmann said. “I think it’s kind of refreshing and inspirational to other people.

They know that they can do multiple sports and excel in everything and still be recruited in college. A lot of people think that if you don’t give one sport 100 percent starting in, like, fifth grade, then you can’t make it big. You still can, and you should enjoy it.”

NCAA COLLEGE BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT: NORTHWESTERN 68, VANDERBILT 66

By EDDIE PELLS

Northwestern coach Chris Collins shouts to his team during the first half of a first-round game in the NCAA tournament against Vanderbilt Thursday in Salt Lake City.

Georgetown’s Fred Brown throwing the pass to James Worthy of North Carolina in the final, but certainly not one for the “One Shining Moment” video, either.

“An honest mistake,” Northwestern coach Chris Collins called it. “You feel bad for players. He was tremendous today. Certainly, I was surprised.”

NCAA COLLEGE BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND ROUNDUP

Colson, Notre Dame hang on to beat Princeton in Round 1 The ASSOCIATED PRESS BUFFALO, N.Y. – Bonzie Colson scored 18 points and Notre Dame survived a first-round NCAA tournament scare by pulling out a 60-58 win over Princeton.

The West Region’s 12th-seeded Tigers had a chance to pull ahead on their final possession, but Devin Cannady missed an open 3-pointer just before the final horn. Notre Dame’s Steve Vasturia pulled down the rebound and was fouled.

The Fighting Irish (26-9) nearly squandered an 11-point second half lead.

Guard Matt Farrell scored 16 points, but missed the front end of a one-andone with Notre Dame up, 59-58.

PURDUE 80, VERMONT 70: At Milwaukee, Vincent Edwards scored 15 of his 21 points in the second half, and Purdue held off Vermont for its first victory in the NCAA Tournament in five years.

Caleb Swanigan added 16 points, 14 rebounds and four assists for the fourth-seeded Boilermakers (26-7), who were upset by Arkansas-Little Rock in double overtime in the first round of last year’s tournament.

Dakota Mathias made three of Purdue’s nine 3-pointers and finished with 13 points.

MIDDLE TENNESSEE STATE 81, MINNESOTA 72: At Milwaukee, Reggie Up-

shaw scored 19 points, Giddy Potts added 15 and Middle Tennessee State took down another Big Ten team in the NCAA tournament, beating Minnesota (24-10).

Twelfth-seeded Middle Tennessee proved it was no one-year wonder after upsetting Michigan State as a No. 15 seed last March.

GONZAGA 66, SOUTH DAKOTA STATE 46: At Salt Lake City, Jordan Mathews

scored 16 points to help Gonzaga slowly pull away from South Dakota State for a victory and avoid the first 1-vs.16 upset in the history of the NCAA tournament.

But Przemek Karnowski, who finished with 10 points, scored three straight buckets for the Bulldogs (33-1) to help them expand the lead to 20 with five minutes left, and it was over.

WEST VIRGINIA 86, BUCKNELL 80: At

Buffalo, N.Y., Nathan Adrian had 12 points and 10 rebounds, leading West Virginia to a win over Bucknell.

Tarik Phillip scored 16 points for the West Region’s fourth-seeded Mountaineers, who struggled at times with the outside-shooting Bison.

West Virginia (27-9) avoided a repeat of last year’s first-round melt-

VIRGINIA 76, UNC WILMINGTON 71: At Orlando, London Perrantes scored 24 points, Marial Shayok added a career-high 23 off the bench and No. 5 seed Virginia rallied from 15 points down to beat 13th-seeded UNC Wilmington.

Perrantes scored 19 points in the second half as the Cavaliers (23-10) got their slow-paced offense going.

His biggest bucket was a driving bank shot with 1:37 remaining, which put the Cavs up, 71-66.

XAVIER 76, MARYLAND 65: At Orlando, Florida, Trevon Bluiett scored 21 points and Sean O’Mara had 18 to help No. 11 seed Xavier upset sixth-seeded Maryland.

The Musketeers move on in the West Region, marking the third straight year they have advanced to the second round. Maryland, which has started three freshmen for much the season, lost in the first round for the first time since 1997.

FLORIDA 80, EAST TENNESSEE STATE 65: At Orlando, Fla., Devin Robinson

SAINT MARY’S 85, VCU 77: At Salt Lake City, Jock Landale had 18 points and 13 rebounds as seventh-seeded Saint Mary’s held on for a victory over No. 10 Virginia Commonwealth.

Robinson, an NBA prospect who had been relatively quiet late in the season, scored his most points in nearly two months. He made 10 of 17 shots and chipped in seven rebounds.

BUTLER 76, WINTHROP 64: At Milwaukee, Avery Woodson scored 18 points and tied a career high with six 3-pointers in his NCAA Tournament debut to lead Butler to a win over Winthrop.

Woodson, a graduate transfer from Memphis, hit five 3s in the first half to

VILLANOVA 76, MOUNT ST. MARY’S 56: At Buffalo, New York, Donte Di-

Vincenzo scored 21 points and NCAA Tournament top seed Villanova shook off a slow start and stumbled forward in the East Region.

The Wildcats (32-3) weren’t themselves for much of the first half before they opened the second half with a 21-6 run to take the first step toward defending their championship. Villanova is trying to be the first back-to-back titlist since Florida in 2007.

SALT LAKE CITY – At Northwestern, the party goes on.

At Vanderbilt, there is only one question: What was he thinking?

Northwestern’s first NCAA tournament victory, 68-66, over Vanderbilt, came after Commodores guard Matthew Fisher-Davis inexplicably grabbed Bryant McIntosh of the Wildcats on purpose, sending McIntosh to the freethrow line for the winning points with 14.6 seconds left.

“I actually thought we were down one,” Fisher-Davis explained after Thursday’s heartbreaker in the West region. “Coach ... pointed at him, but he was just telling me that was my matchup. I took it as (I should) foul.”

And although Fisher-Davis scored 14 of his 22 points in the second half to help ninth-seeded Vandy (19-16) rally from 15 points down, his mistake was the main takeaway from this game – maybe not as bad as Chris Webber calling a timeout that Michigan didn’t have or

The sequence was set up after Riley LaChance made a layup with 17.8 seconds remaining to put the Commodores up by one.

But seconds after the inbounds pass, Fisher-Davis reached out and grabbed McIntosh around the waist while the Northwestern guard was dribbling up the backcourt. That put eighth-seeded Northwestern in the double bonus, and McIntosh went to the line and calmly swished the free throws with 14.6 seconds left for a 67-66 lead.

“When he grabbed me, I had thought we were down one, and I’m thinking maybe I made a mistake,” he said. “I had to put my mind on making the free throws at the end.”

Northwestern forced LaChance to miss a 3 on the next possession and the Wildcats made (24-11) another free throw.

Fisher-Davis heaved a desperation shot at the buzzer, but it missed, and he sunk his head and reached down to his shoes in despair before heading to the sideline where his teammates hugged him.

26 NASCAR BRIEF

No penalty for Busch or Logano for Vegas fight

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – NASCAR on Wednesday declined to penalize Kyle Busch, Joey Logano or their crews for their post-race scuffle at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

NASCAR said the sport was built on the kind of racing that Busch and Logano did on the final laps of Sunday’s race. The hard racing for position led to Busch confronting Logano after the race, and throwing a punch.

NHL Busch was knocked to the ground

by Team Penske crew members and cut his forehead in the scuffle.

“The emotions of our athletes run high, and Kyle Busch and Joey Logano are two of the most passionate and competitive drivers in the sport,” said Steve O’Donnell, NASCAR executive vice president and chief racing development officer.

“Both competitors are very clear on our expectations going forward and we will be meeting with them

in person prior to practice on Friday in Phoenix.”

Logano told FoxSports1 on Tuesday that he and Busch have spoken since the incident.

NASCAR did issue two lug nut penalties: The teams for Martin Truex Jr. and Ty Dillon were penalized for lug nuts not being properly installed. Truex crew chief Cole Pearn and Dillon crew chief Bootie Barker were each fined $10,000.

Bulls’ Dwyane Wade out for rest of season with elbow injury

CHICAGO – Dwyane Wade decided to leave Miami after 13 seasons to come home to Chicago, hoping his arrival would help galvanize the Bulls team he grew up watching.

The fairy tale gave way to a much harsher reality this season, with the Bulls plagued by locker room discord and frustration between the team leaders and the front office. That Wade’s first season is ending 14 games early because of a fractured right elbow only makes it more painful.

An MRI on Thursday revealed a fractured bone and ligament damage in Wade’s elbow, ruling him out for the rest of the regular season. With the Bulls (32-36) sitting in 10th place in the Eastern Conference and having lost six of their past seven games, the playoffs are looking less likely by the day.

“It’s not the way I would’ve written it,” Wade told reporters after the injury was announced. “But it is what it is.”

Wade was injured in the fourth quarter of Wednesday night’s loss to Memphis when he collided with Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph. He said after the game that he felt “a couple of pops” and the elbow was briefly dislocated.

Wade averaged 18.6 points and 4.5 rebounds in his first season with the Bulls. He has teamed with All-Star Jimmy Butler to try to provide scoring and veteran leadership to a team seemingly in transition.

OTTAWA, Ontario – Richard Panik scored the tiebreaking goal late in the third period, lifting the Blackhawks to a 2-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators on Thursday night.

Panik scored on the power play on a one-timer off a pass from Patrick Kane with 3:01 remaining. Duncan Keith also scored and Scott Darling made 33 saves to help the Hawks get their second straight win.

Kyle Turris scored for Ottawa, and Mike Condon finished with 26 saves as the Senators squandered a chance to move in to first place in the Atlantic Division.

The Hawks took a 1-0 lead at 8:04 of the third as Keith’s shot eventually found its way across the goal line.

Turris tied it on a one-timer from the right side on a power play with 8:37 remaining.

When the “Magic Pill” isn’t so magic Paul Bergstrom for Shaw Media

Bolingbrook’s Tyler Cochran shoots over Naperville North’s Chris Johnson during Tuesday’s NIU Supersectional. The Raiders won, 83-57.

BOYS BASKETBALL CLASS 4A STATE TOURNAMENT SEMIFINAL: BOLINGBROOK VS. SIMEON, 7 P.M. FRIDAY

Bolingbrook vs. Simeon state semifinal promises to entertain

By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com Robert Smith’s answer came without hesitation.

“There are no NBA players on this team,” the Chicago Simeon boys basketball coach said during the Wednesday IHSA teleconference when asked how this team is different from those of the recent past.

The Wolverines (28-3) have won six state titles under Smith since 2005, finished second once and were third last season. The norm has been to have a Derrick Rose or a Jabari Parker leading the way.

Not this time.

However, that does not make the task facing Bolingbrook (29-1) any easier in Friday’s 7:15 p.m. Class 4A state semifinal at Carver Arena in Peoria.

“We still have a good team, and we still play Simeon basketball,” Smith said.

Perhaps because of the missing future NBA type, the Wolverines were not as highly regarded early on as many of their previous teams. But when they opened the season on a 17game winning streak, the respect returned.

“When we won 16 or 17 in a row, people’s eyes started to light up,” Smith said. “The reason these kids have been successful is they have put in the work

they needed to do to get to this point.

Not that our other teams didn’t, but these kids really have worked hard.

“They played [No. 1-ranked] Edwardsville in the supersectional. They were hearing how good Edwardsville is, and they are good. But these kids take a lot of things personally when other people don’t think they’re as good as they think they are.”

The Wolverines, who ousted Edwardsville 76-64, no doubt have heard plenty about Bolingbrook. The Raiders were ranked No. 1 until suffering their only loss of the season, 65-64, and they are the highest-ranked team entering the semifinals. Simeon is second among the Final Four on that list, not that Chicago Young (25-5) or Fremd (30-0) are slouches.

All signs point to an entertaining Bolingbrook-Simeon semifinal between two teams that enjoy an uptempo game.

“We can play different styles,” said Bolingbrook coach Rob Brost, who earned his 200th career victory in 10 seasons at Bolingbrook in Tuesday’s 83-57 supersectional win over Naperville North. “We can play in the 50s, but we don’t prefer that. We like games in the 80s.

“Of course, now we are in elite, elite, elite company.”

Erectile dysfunction (E.D.) affects more than 30 million men in the U.S. It is especially common in men with prostate surgery, diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and obesity. However, it is now possible to treat almost all men with E.D! E.D. undermines a man’s sexual confidence—but successful treatment can restore it!

Many E.D. treatments are covered by most insurance and prescription plans.

Often, men that suffer from E.D. also suffer from urinary incontinence. You are not alone!

Convincing your spouse to get a hearing check SPONSORED BY

By Diane Krieger Spivak Living with hearing loss is no fun. Neither is living with a spouse with hearing loss.

When someone has hearing loss, oral communication, a vital function of participating insocietyandrelationships,isnegativelyaffected.

It takes an average of seven years for a person to admit they have a hearing deficit. For many, hearing loss can be an embarrassment and an admission of growing old. For the hearing spouse, those years can mean having to be their “ears,” having to repeat things over and over, and gradually declining social invitations due to their spouse’s hearing loss, not to mention years of worry about the safety of their hearing-impaired husband or wife.

medical research on hearing aids and find some testimonials about how hearing aids have changed people’s lives for the better. You can also conduct an informal assessment of the person with hearing loss.

Take an online quiz where your spouse can answer questions related to the state of their hearing. The quizzes usually consist of simple yes or no questions such as, “Do I often ask people to repeat themselves?” or “Do many people I talk to seem to mumble?” Seeing several consecutive answers that point to hearing loss will hopefully convince him or her to get a professional hearing assessment from a hearing health provider.

Don’t forget to remind your spouse how hearing aids make life easier. The two of you can have a normal conversation again, and wearing the devices makes it safe for your family member to go out on their own.

At the time of the teleconference, Brost said he himself had not yet watched much film on Simeon, but he did mention 6-foot-5 junior forward Talen Horton-Tucker.

“That kid can do almost whatever he wants with his bulk,” Brost said.

“Talen is not Jabari Parker,” Smith said, “but he has a game like Jabari’s.

He a matchup problem. He can takes bigs to the perimeter and shoot it, and he posts up smaller guys.

“We let him play point guard in the fourth quarter, in certain situations.

That’s something we started toward the end of the year. We want the ball in his hands in certain situations.”

Evan Gilyard, who moved to point guard for the Chicago city playoffs, leads Simeon with a 16-point average.

His biggest asset, Smith said, is he has “the heart of a lion.”

Gilyard will face serious pressure against Bolingbrook, regardless of how the Raiders decide to defend the Wolverines. Bolingbrook normally plays man-to-man defense in the halfcourt and most of the Raiders can defend multiple positions on the floor.

With the way Bolingbrook attacks on offense – be it off a fast-break after a turnover, a break off a long outlet pass after a defensive rebound or in the half-court game – the Raiders have

player who is averaging 15 and could easily be averaging 25. The best part about him is he is a good teammate who really cares about the other guys.

Of course, I could say that about the other guys, too. They all care about each other.”

Cochran had been the first man off the bench early in the season as 6-foot4 senior Trevor Ross was in the starting lineup. But Ross suffered an injury at Christmas and has missed the second half of the season, and Cochran became a starter. That did not severely weaken the Raiders’ bench, however, because 6-7 Brandon Lawani and guard Isaiah Clemmons have stepped up, and guard Demari Grant and 6-6 Cameron Harris have contributed as well.

“Tyler [Cochran] and Trevor [Ross] are two different players,” Brost said.

“Trevor was our best on-ball defender against the toughest wing. Tyler provides more of a scoring punch. Trevor was such a calming influence that we miss him as a leadership piece.”

Ross will be with the Raiders on the bench, however. And the cast Brost has available has been plenty good all season.

“Everybody knows about Nana [Akenten] and Malik [Binns], but we have three guards in Thornton, Yesufu and Cochran who are very, very good,” he said. “To be starting two sophomores on this team, that’s refreshing from a coaching standpoint.”

Beyond corned beef and cabbage ‘Leprechauns’ abound in the Joliet-area community

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

JOLIET – Lots of people post pictures of their children on Facebook, and Marianne Uthe of Manhattan is no exception.

But it was the photo of her son, Corey Uthe, 17, of Manhattan that made me remember a story I wrote several years ago, about a Joliet resident who dressed up as a leprechaun for charity.

If there’s two, I mused, there’s gotta be more.

So I asked on Facebook: “Does anyone in Will/Grundy counties have photos of themselves dressed as leprechauns? If I can get several, I’d like to run them in this Friday’s Herald-News. Please message me.”

And people responded. Happy St. Patrick’s Day, and enjoy!

ABOVE: Joliet Junior College Vice Chairman Andrew Mihelich poses with his wife, Kathleen Mihelich, a founder and coordinator of the annual fundraiser Witches Night Out, in 2015 at the couple’s St. Patrick’s Day party, an annual event since 2002. “I provide all the hats, glasses, beads, etc.,” Kathleen said in a Facebook message. “I have a huge box of stuff. They [guests] all wear green and wigs, etc. The decorations are awesome. I love party planning.” RIGHT: Rylan Walsh, 8, of Minooka helped his family by turning into a leprechaun. “We were in the Plainfield Hometown Irish Parade yesterday for my husbands business, Walsh Tree Service,” Rylan’s mother, Mandy Walsh, said in a Facebook message Monday.

LEFT: Corey Uthe, 17, of Manhattan felt like goofing off one day and went grocery shopping dressed as a leprechaun.

Wondering whether the cashier expected him to pay with a pot of gold. RIGHT: Zack and Nathalie Phillips of Minooka brought their unborn daughter, Charlotte (born Dec. 1, 2016), into the costume act when they took their oldest daughter, Islah, 2, trick-or-treating last year.

“My husband dresses like a leprechaun on St. Paddy’s Day for work to be funny because of his red hair/beard,” Nathalie said in a Facebook message. “Since he already had the costume, it made sense to find something funny for me to wear to match.”

Mary Lancaster, a partner at Wermer, Rogers, Doran & Ruzon LLC in Joliet, said every Saturday during tax season a committee creates a fun theme and then adds the right food decorations, along with contests for the best costume. “It can be very stressful during tax time,” Lancaster said in a Facebook message, “and it is our way of reducing some of that stress, create teamwork, etc.” Bette Brady, administrative assistant/receptionist at Wermer, Rogers, Doran & Ruzon smiles for the camera. Her co-workers pose in the background.

SUDOKU

ASK THE DOCTORS Robert Ashley some women, such as those with congenital adrenal hyperplasia or polycystic ovarian disease, which is relatively common. Simply checking levels of testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) can either rule out androgenic alopecia or suggest that it be explored further.

Another potential cause is medication.

Some medications can lead to hair loss, so if your symptoms seem coincidental to starting a new medication, there might be an association.

Biotin deficiency, which is rare, can also cause hair loss and inflammation of the facial skin. But if you have a normal diet and eat eggs, you have a low likelihood of this condition. Nonetheless, it’s something to rule out.

Iron deficiency also can lead to both brittle nails and hair loss. This doesn’t explain the skin manifestations that you have, but if you are looking at other possibilities, checking the iron level of the blood should be part of the workup.

Any major illness can lead to hair loss and nail changes, and psychological stress can lead to hair loss. So, if there have been major stressors in your life, either physical or psychological, consider that a potential culprit.

In summary, if your thyroid levels are normal, it would be wise to check your thyroid antibodies, androgens and iron levels – and your level of stress.

• Robert Ashley, M.D., is an internist and assistant professor of medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles.

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

• Friday, March 17, 2017

Dear Doctor: I’ve been taking thyroid medication for several years, and my doctor says my blood tests are where they should be, but my face feels like sandpaper, my nails are brittle, and I’m losing so much hair that I can see my scalp. Could there be some underlying problem my physician is missing?

Dear Reader: Hair loss can be a distressing symptom, made all the more so when its cause is a mystery.

Your thyroid hormone levels are an obvious place to start, because both low and high thyroid levels can lead to hair and nail changes. Symptoms of high thyroid levels include hair loss, skin that is unusually smooth and warm, and nails that soften and loosen from the nail bed. The remaining hair becomes thinner, softer and does not hold a wave.

Symptoms of low thyroid levels also include hair loss, including in the armpits and genital area, but the hair in this scenario is dull, coarse and fragile. As for the nails, they tend to be delicate, thin and have multiple grooves. That said, if your physician has done a complete panel of thyroid tests and the results have been normal, then most likely the function of your thyroid gland is not the cause of the brittle nails nor the hair loss.

That doesn’t mean the thyroid isn’t a factor. Autoimmune thyroid disease can lead to hair loss, both patchy and more diffuse, as well as inflammatory conditions of the skin. Such disease isn’t always reflected in thyroid hormone levels. Checking anti-thyroid antibodies in the blood can identify autoimmune thyroid disease, and point you and your doctor in a clearer direction.

Hair loss also can be caused by androgenic alopecia, linked to an excess of androgens, a type of male hormone. These hormones are present in both men and women, but they’re higher than normal in

options available for women in 1960 than there are today, I’m shocked that your mom received the advice she did over my mother’s signature. My response today would be to ask her why she had chosen to stay with a controlling, emotionally abusive man who persisted in carrying around a photo of his ex-girlfriend in spite of the fact that he knew it hurt his wife. And then I’d suggest she ask herself whether she thought the three of you were better off with him or without him.

Dear Abby: I don’t like people. I live alone and hardly leave my apartment. I have one friend I talk to on the phone every day, and sometimes my siblings who live out of town, but not often. The core of my issue may be my secret. I am gay and a foreigner.

I like to surf the net, read historical books, and enjoy classic literature novels. For some reason, I feel like hiding myself away from people is making me miss out. Am I abnormal? Do I need a therapist? I have internal peace in my life and I think I’m happy. – Intel-

Dear Abby: My mother married my father in 1960 when she was barely 16. She was the mother of two children before age 18. My father was older, controlling, abusive and unkind to her.

She wrote to your mother for advice in the 1960s, saying he still carried a photo of his old girlfriend in his wallet and how much it hurt her. Your mother’s advice to her was to “grow up.” In light of how the times have changed, I am wondering what your advice to her would be in 2017? Both parents are now deceased. –

FRIDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Take a walk down memory lane. Delving into your past will encourage you to reconnect with someone you once enjoyed working or spending time with. If you meld the old with the new, you will discover something or someone that fits in nicely with your lifestyle and plans.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Take a look at contracts, job openings or investments to find a way to raise your income. Participate in events that are geared toward helping people achieve success.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Look over contracts, deals or professional options that can change your life. Negotiate on your own behalf. Don’t

let frustration turn into anger. A calm and charming approach will seal the deal.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Go where the action is. Being a part of what’s going on at work or in your community will keep you informed of any opportunities that might interest you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – You’ll be surprised by the way others handle matters. Don’t leave anything to chance. If you want something done your way, you must do it yourself. Romance is in the stars.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Charm your way in and out of situations. Show steady progress and the desire to finish what you start. Walk away from anyone who is a bad influence.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Don’t rock the boat when dealing with domestic issues. Someone

will be ready to face off with you if you aren’t willing to compromise. Choose your battles wisely.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – If you give others a chance to share their thoughts, you will find it easier to come up with workable suggestions and solutions. Your input will result in popularity and greater control.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – An interesting concept will grab your attention. Put more effort into using your skills more effectively. An interesting proposal will catch you by surprise.

Romance is featured.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Socialize with the movers and shakers to fast-track your way to greater popularity and opportunities. A little romance and passion will improve your

personal life.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Protect personal secrets and private dealings. Don’t indulge in gossip or meddle in other people’s affairs. Stay focused on your life and the lives of loved ones and success will be yours.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – An unusual opportunity will arise. Don’t miss out on something exciting just because someone is being demanding and taking up your time. Stay focused on getting ahead instead of helping others advance.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Sit back and listen. The undertone in someone’s voice will tell you volumes about what to expect. Stay on top of any dealings that affect your assets, possessions or physical well-being.

SATURDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Easy come, easy go. Be extremely cautious regarding financial matters. Don’t spend money you don’t have or take risks with what you do have. You’ll be taken advantage of if you let someone handle your affairs. Protect your heart and possessions.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Don’t think that someone else can do a better job than you. You will lose out if you sell yourself short. You can find a way to excel if you show a little backbone.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Settle any unfinished business regarding your taxes, investments or health issues. Discuss personal plans with a

loved one. A commitment can be made.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Emotional disillusionment will develop if you trust someone to take care of your responsibilities. Do the work yourself and avoid any backlash that might affect your reputation or an important relationship.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Emotional matters will escalate. Get a clear picture of what’s going on around you before you take action. Time is on your side. Focus on improving important relationships.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Self-deception and disillusionment will set in if you choose inconsistency over stability. Moderation will help you maintain emotional and financial control.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Travel, excitement and adventure will call to you. Turn your day into a celebration with a loved one or the people who bring you joy. Romance is encouraged.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Problems at home will escalate if you make changes without the approval of those affected by your decisions.

Consider the best way to get things done without causing a rift.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – A short trip geared toward love and romance will bring you closer to someone special. You’ll learn something valuable from the experience.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Reconnect with old friends or dig up old plans you’d set aside but still want to pursue. Taking a walk down

memory lane will help you move forward.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Listen to the words and desires of others, but don’t let anyone limit or burden you with problems that shouldn’t concern you. Positive personal or domestic changes are favored.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – You may feel obliged to help others, but before you take on a heavy burden, make sure you know what you are getting into and what you will get for your kindness and generosity.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Stick to the truth and don’t make assumptions. Personal change based on the lessons of experience will turn out well. Don’t let anyone take you for granted or bully you.

JOLIET 1, 2, 3BR $750 - $950 - $1200 Bridge players like guaranteed lines of play or defense. On every deal, both sides are trying to find one or the other. In today’s, can South guarantee his contract of six hearts after West leads a fourth-highest spade three?

When South opens one heart, North’s hand greatly increases in value. It contains four short-suit points (one in spades and three in diamonds) and has only five losers because you deduct one loser for a 10-card or better fit. South then uses his preferred form of Blackwood before stopping in six hearts.

West chose to lead a spade in preference to the diamond queen because he knew about dummy’s short suit. Here, West did well not to lead a club.

Declarer has a potential loser in each rounded suit. Taking the trump suit in isolation, the percentage play for no losers is to cash the ace. But that is wrong with these hands. The right line is to take both spade tricks and the diamond ace before ruffing the diamond seven on the board.

Then South should call for the heart queen (to encourage East to cover with the king) and, assuming East plays low smoothly, to run the queen.

Here, the finesse wins and declarer is playing for an overtrick. But suppose West could scoop up the trick with the singleton heart king. He would be endplayed, forced either to lead into South’s club tenace or to concede a ruff-and-sluff. Whichever he chooses, declarer will lose no club trick.
