Morris resident enjoys rural living after life in the city

Charles Tlapa of Morris stands next to the fire pit he built to boil maple sap to make syrup. yard.

“I came by and got eggs from him a couple of times,” neighbor Ruby Matteson said.

“Then I saw him out here with the fire going and I stopped to see what he was doing.”

More neighbors and friends started stopping by to help in the process, which this year lasted two days to boil the 65 gallons of maple sap he got from his trees.

“I tap eight to 10 trees each year, rotating which ones I use,” he said. “Sometimes I have to rotate mid-season to get enough sap.”

Matteson said when she first started stopping by, she thought her neighbor would have a lot of syrup based on how much sap he obtained.

But she quickly found out how little actual syrup one actually gets from a gallon of sap after

Tlapa said the amount of syrup is dependent on the amount of sugar in the sap, so he is never sure how much he will get.

MORRIS – Country living, with access to Chicago and the suburbs, was what Charles Tlapa was looking for when he moved to Morris from Downers Grove in 2006.

He was familiar with the area from his frequent visits to the Downers Grove Sportsmen’s Club, which is located on Old Stage Road in Morris.

“I lost my wife and had been in the city and the suburbs my whole life. I wanted something quiet and peaceful,” Tlapa said.

Tlapa quickly settled in to his rural Morris home, and before he knew it he was cleaning out the chicken coop that came with the two acres he purchased.

A friend who works in a school district called and explained he had some baby chicks from a school project that needed a home and he saw Tlapa had a chicken coop at the new house.

“He saw the coop and asked if I wanted the chicks. I got registered with the state to have them and he showed up with about 30 birds,” he said.

Tlapa sells a few of the eggs to pay for chicken feed and shares the rest with family and friends.

As he settled into country living he saw a television program about tapping maple trees to make syrup and he thought it was something he’d like to try.

He has multiple maple trees on his property, so he started researching the project.

This was the fourth year Tlapa has harvested sap from the trees and painstakingly boiled the sap into syrup in his

LOCAL NEWS Grundy board approves road projects

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Grundy County is moving forward on road projects for the year.

The board approved Tuesday in its consent agenda resolutions appropriating funds from the County Motor Fuel Fund to pay for the projects.

“This is part of our fiveyear project that we’ve budgeted for,” County Engineer Craig Cassem said Wednesday.

The county approved appropriating $270,000 from the County Motor Fuel Fund and

$200,000 from the Federal Aid Matching Fund to cape seal 2 miles of Marseilles Road and 2 miles of Ridge Road between Route 6 and McEvilly Road.

Cassem said cape sealing the pavement helps with the preservation process, which allows for longer times between major reconstruction projects on county roads.

When cape sealing a road, crews use an oil and chip mixture, then add an asphalt-like liquid micro-surface to the road, and then restripe it.

Grundy County Board Chairman David Welter said the county actively is working

“Filling the cracks in our road surfaces helps preserve them and keeps water from entering the cracks and causing more damage.”

Craig Cassem Grundy County engineer

to preserve the roads in the county while also expanding roads that will lead to development, such as the Brisbin Road corridor.

The county also is starting a major crack-filling project to help preserve other roads.

“Filling the cracks in our road surfaces helps preserve them and keeps water from entering the cracks and causing more damage,” Cassem said.

The county approved appropriating $230,000 from the County Motor Fuel Fund to fill

the cracks on Pine Bluff Road, Broadway Road, Reed Road, East Grand Ridge Road, Tynan Road and West Grand Ridge Road. Cassem said the county also is continuing the ongoing project to get Kankakee Road improved.

The board approved $150,000 from the Motor Fuel Tax Funds and $280,000 from the Federal Aid Matching Fund to reconstruct ditches, resurface the road with bituminous concrete and widen shoulders. The county intends to go out to bid on the various projects during the next few weeks.

Legacy Foundation nearing next step in Morris bleacher project

By MIKE MALLORY mmallory@shawmedia.com MORRIS – The Morris Community High School Legacy Foundation launched in January with a goal of updating the school’s stadium through the Legacy Project. The project is an initiative aimed at adding an artificial turf field and new bleachers to the site.

Mike Feeney, owner of Feeney Package Liquor in Morris, formed the Legacy Foundation along with Frank Varner and Mike Lennon. Feeney estimated the cost of the entire project at $4.5 million to $5 million, including later upgrades.

Feeney said Wednesday there is nothing official yet as far as the next step, but said there could be something concrete in a couple weeks.

“We’re now an established 501(c)(3) nonprofit,” Feeney said. “We have a lawyer in town working pro bono.”

PG 8JMM BOE (SVOEZ $PVOUJFT

“We’re still working toward the goal and hoping to finalize very soon some things we’ve been working on.”

Mike Feeney Legacy Foundation co-founder The group wasn’t able to take donations until 501(c) (3) status was set up. Donated funds will be tax-deductible.

“We’re still working toward the goal and hoping to finalize very soon some things we’ve been working on,” Feeney said.

In January, the group said the project is going to solicit funds from businesses and individuals in hopes the stadium will be used for football, soccer, poms, cheerleading, marching band and the community. The plan is to add new

lighting and a new scoreboard one day, as well as remodel locker rooms and upgrade the four-lane track.

District 101 is not in the financial position to pay for such a big project, Superintendent Pat Halloran said in January.

“We haven’t heard anything new here at the high school,” Halloran said Wednesday.

The Morris High School stadium was speculated as a site for the long-debated band shell.

“We haven’t heard anything from the high school or the Legacy Foundation,” Morris Mayor Richard Kopczick said. “We’re now looking at lower Goold Park as the site for the band shell.”

Kopczick said the band shell would fit with the stadium design, but it would have to be an intergovernmental agreement with the high school for concerts and other events not put on by the school.

Annual Saratoga student vs. faculty games continue

By ALLISON SELK Shaw Media correspondent MORRIS – The aroma of buttery popcorn, crowds cheering, the band belting out music from the stands, and the screech of shoes on the gym floor meant one thing for Saratoga School: the annual faculty versus eighth-grade students athletic event was underway.

First on the lineup at last week’s event was the eighthgrade girls volleyball team versus female faculty members. The girls knew they only had three sets to victory.

“We created a good strategy and rotation and went with the flow to try to win. I tried to mimic our coach as much as possible,” student coach Jillian Hosek said.

Eighth-grade girls volleyball coach Melanie Kunz, a former Purdue University volleyball player, commended the girls on coaching themselves.

“I had to bite my tongue at times and not coach, but the girls did a good job at being me,” Kunz said.

The first set flew by with a win for the volleyball team.

The second set was an upset by the faculty, with the volleyball team only scoring five points.

“Oh gosh, the teachers were way better than I expected, and I was trying to dodge Coach Kunz’s hits,” volleyball team captain Krista Runchey said.

By the third set, the team was shouting encouragement to those on the court, the coach was heckling her students and tensions were high on both sides of the net.

“I was confident going into the third set we would win,” volleyball team captain Olivia Schultz said. “We have the volleyball experience and Coach Kunz is the best coach teaching us.”

After a back-and-forth third set, the team fighting the official for unfair calls, taunting and multiple strategy planning timeouts, the faculty took the last set with a 25-15 win.

Kunz said the best thing

Allison Selk – Shaw Media correspondent

Saratoga School’s annual faculty versus eighth-grade students athletic event was held last week. The event includes faculty facing off against the students on the boys basketball and girls volleyball teams. about this game was “being able to goof off with the girls in a fun game, and see the silliness come out more.”

After a quick intermission, the eighth-grade boys and faculty took the floor.

The eighth-grade boys basketball coach, Vince Zomboracz, said the faculty won last year, so this game was to defend the title.

“It’s a fun way to end the year with the boys. It’s fun for me to see them run themselves, coach themselves, talk smack to them and carry on the traditions of this almost 30year event,” Zomboracz said.

On the sidelines, the boys were up out of their seats, shouting out plays, pacing back and forth, yelling and screaming as they substituted players in and out of the backand-forth game.

“We are trying to stay focused, win and have fun. We are looking a little rusty out there tonight. The team hasn’t played in awhile, but we can pull it out, the teachers are older than us,” student coach Jack Walker said.

Although the faculty did have several years on the boys, they kept up with them, score

for score. Student player Chad Heren shared his plan to steal the win.

“They are shooting well against us, but we need to keep up with the tempo of the game, go faster and faster, and tire the teachers out since they are getting older,” Heren said.

The fourth period proved to be the game-changer with Zomboracz and Heren having what almost seemed like a 3-point shootout.

The last 30 seconds of the game was scrappy with the boys and faculty on the floor, fouls being called and timeouts every few seconds.

In the end, the faculty pulled out a 43-40 win over the boys team, to lock in another year of victory.

Principal Joe Zweeres was one of the faculty team members.

“This is an awesome, exciting tradition at Saratoga.

The kids look forward to this game all year and we have some good athletes on staff.”

Zweeres said.

Event organizer Donna Knudson said the event has been around for more than 30 years, but only recently has been used as a fundraiser.

Hoping for a new playground Coal City autism awareness group raising funds for all-inclusive space

By MIKE MALLORY mmallory@shawmedia.com COAL CITY – Autism awareness organization Hope Helps has launched a goal of raising money for a 10,000-square-foot, all-inclusive, special-needs sensory playground in Coal City.

As a parent of two children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, Brittney Kaluzny and her family started the nonprofit organization in 2010.

The price of the playground facility it wants to construct would be almost $300,000, Kaluzny said.

“We’re hoping to get the playground built by April 2016,” said Kaluzny, president of Hope Helps. “It’s a lofty goal, but it is the goal.”

The fifth annual Raffle Basket and Silent Auction for Autism will be from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. April 25 at Ted Berst Hall, 180 S. Kankakee St. in Coal City. Items up for bid include airline tickets.

On June 7, Hope Helps is set to take part in the Joliet Slammers Baseball FUNdraiser. In the fall, the organization has the Puzzle Hustle 5K race and participates in Oktoberfest and Corn Festival.

The idea for an all-inclusive playground came about when the Kaluzny family realized they weren’t the only ones in Grundy and Will counties traveling to either Minooka or Joliet for even a couple sections of playground equipment for children with special needs.

The playground’s design has multiple Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant structures. including high-backed and harnessed swings, a Sensory Wall and a Pulse Sensory Game. The playground surface would be pulverized rubber.

“Some kids use wheelchairs or walkers for mobility,” Kaluzny said. “They aren’t able to maneuver through mulch or gravel. It is a larger expense,

“It would be great for him to be where other kids are. Not just around him in separate sections.”

Cindy McCawley Coal City resident but will also last longer.”

Cindy McCawley is the mother of a 27-year-old son with cerebral palsy who attended the United Cerebral Palsy of Illinois Prairieland in Joliet until age 22. McCawley wishes every playground were all-inclusive.

“It would be great for him to be where other kids are,” she said. “Not just around him in separate sections.”

McCawley, of Coal City, said driving to Easter Seals Joliet’s playground doesn’t work well for them.

“It’d be wonderful to have here nearby,” McCawley said.

The land Hope Helps is interested in is the Coal City Skate Park location.

Coal City Trustee Terry Halliday said Wednesday that Kaluzny came before the Village Board last year, and the board said it would be open to finding a new location for the skate park if the money is raised for the playground.

“Coal City is willing to donate the land and that’s part of the reason the goal is April 2016,” Kaluzny said. “You never know, the land might not be available in 2017. That’s why it’s a proposed site.”

Kaluzny and McCawley said all playgrounds should be all-inclusive.

Dentist Q:

How does my Dental Health Affect my Overall Health?

A:

Many people think that the health of your mouth and teeth are separate from overall health. However, a strong link exists between oral health and overall health. Gum disease, or periodontal disease is often a painless disease. Periodontal disease has a strong correlation to heart disease, diabetes, and many other diseases. Signs of periodontal disease are bad breath, bleeding gums, and puffy inflamed gums. If you have not seen a dentist in a few years, or you are a smoker, diabetic, or have heart disease, the chances of having periodontal disease are significantly higher. And that periodontal disease is making your heart disease, diabetes, and other disease worse. Having a dentist check the health of your mouth can save your life.

Optometrist Q: I have macular degeneration and recently started

to develop cataracts. I’m worried that if I have cataract surgery it might make my macular degeneration worse.

What do you think?

A: In a study published in the journal Ophthalmology, investigators reviewed data

Jeffrey J. Blanco, O.D.

from the Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS), which involved 4,577 patients (8,050 eyes) who were followed every six months for as long as 11 years. All participants were ages 55 to 80 at enrollment and had best corrected visual acuity of 20/40 or better in at least one eye. The researchers found that in 1,167 patients that had cataract surgery, “the frequency and progression of age-related macular degeneration did not differ between patients who had cataract surgery and those who did not”. Therefore, the largest study that addressed your question found that if you have macular degeneration, having cataract surgery should not make it worse.

Q: What is a “stress fracture,” and how is it treated?

A:

Stress fractures are injuries that occur most common in the weight-bearing bones, like the lower leg and foot, especially in track and field athletes.

Dr. Paul Bishop, DPM* & Dr. Tom Rappette, DPM* These tiny cracks are caused by repetitive stress and can develop over days, weeks or months. Stress fractures can also arise from normal use of a bone that’s been weakened by a condition such as osteoporosis or osteopenia. Symptoms may include: pain that increases with activity and decreases with rest, pain that increases over time, pain that occurs earlier in each successive workout, pain that persists even at rest and swelling. If you suspect you have a stress fracture, schedule an appointment with the Foot & Ankle Centers to determine the course of treatment that is best for you.

Realtor Q:

At what percent of asking price do homes typically sell?

Last year homes in our market area sold for 96% of asking price on A: average.

This is much higher than most buyers would guess. It is important to point out that the asking price is the price at the time of the offer. Homes that are overpriced in the beginning will often have several price reductions before eventually selling. When the price finally gets to within 4% or so of the home’s value, the home finally sells. So as a buyer, how do you know what price to offer for a house, not knowing if it is overpriced? I am always happy to do a detailed valuation on the home for which a client of mine is making an offer. Only by knowing what a home is worth will you be able to make an offer for the property and know that you are not overpaying.

JOLIET – State funds have been frozen for interior work to the downtown Joliet Junior College building, but college officials plan to continue paying for it.

JJC officials learned last week that $10 million of $25.5 million promised for the City Center campus project by the state would be placed on hold by the Governor’s Office of Management and Budget, JJC spokeswoman Kelly Rohder said.

“We were very surprised by the news,” she said.

She said funding for capital projects for other community colleges also was frozen.

In response, the JJC Board of Trustees approved a measure at its meeting Tuesday to use money earmarked for other projects for the interior work at the City Center building, such as classroom upgrades and campus technology.

“We can’t let the campus project stagnate, plain and simple,” Rohder said.

She said JJC will continue the downtown building construction work, but the holding of money originally promised by the state will have “critical consequences” for other capital projects. JJC had followed all requirements for the project.

Rohder said JJC officials hope the $10 million will eventually be released and the college would be reimbursed for the project.

Last year, exterior work on the 96,000-square-foot City Center building was completed.

“(Not increasing tuition is) something we’re very proud of even in tough economic times.”

Kelly Rohder JJC spokeswoman The building, located at Chicago and Clinton streets, will house the adult education and literacy department, workforce development and the culinary arts program.

In an email statement, Catherine Kelly, Gov. Bruce Rauner’s spokeswoman, wrote that Rauner inherited a fiscal crisis on his first day in office, and ordered a review of all state spending.

“The capital project at Joliet Junior College is frozen pending that review,” she wrote.

Fiscal 2016 budget

JJC board members also unanimously approved Tuesday the college’s budget for fiscal 2016, which begins July 1. Rohder said there were no changes to the budget before final approval.

The budget is projected to be balanced, with revenues and expenses at about $87 million.

The budget projects no increases in tuition or enrollment, as well as a 2.3 percent increase in property taxes.

“It’s something we’re very proud of even in tough economic times,” Rohder said.

“We’ve been able to do that while simultaneously being responsible to taxpayers and students.”

Morris High School NHS inducts new members MORRIS DAILY HERALD

MORRIS – The annual induction ceremony of Morris Community High School’s Chapter of the National Honor Society was held the evening of Feb. 26, when 19 juniors and four seniors were inducted during the candlelight ceremony which was held in the school’s auditorium.

Musical selections were performed by junior NHS inductees Emma Dingbaum, Michael Kren and Grace Tibbott, as parents, grandparents and other special guests were seated. MCHS Superintendent Patrick Halloran welcomed the NHS chapter members, all new inductees, and all special guests to the ceremony on behalf of the Board of Education.

MCHS Principal Kelly Hussey then presented comments concerning the ceremony and introduced the NHS Faculty Council and other faculty members who were in attendance.

NHS President Katherine Gallick orchestrated the ceremony for the evening. Her first introduction was that of Ian Bashor, senior NHS member, who presented the “Purpose” of the organization. He was followed by Savannah Carter, NHS treasurer, who presented a reading on “Character,” one of the four pillars upon which NHS is founded.

“Scholarship,” the second pillar, was read by NHS Secretary Bridget Gile, and “Leadership,” the third pillar, was read by NHS Vice President

Robert Meucci. The last pillar, “Service,” was presented

by NHS senior member Sophie Gaska. Each inductee is judged on these four pillars before being invited to be a mem-

ber of the chapter.

Each inductee participated in a pledge to the society led

by Gallick and NHS Adviser Barbara Rath. Hussey, who represented the National As-

Newark library to hold literary, other events

Gallick took roll call and each newly inducted member and their chosen sponsor advanced together to the stage.

The sponsor was witness to his or her inductee’s signing of the membership book, lighting of the candle (representing acceptance of the four pillars), introduction of family and guests, and acceptance of the NHS pendant. In addition, each inductee indicated to the audience what the reason was for choosing his or her particular witness.

A reception was held after the ceremony in the MCHS cafeteria for all members, their guests and the MCHS faculty and administrators.

SOFTBALL: COAL CITY 11, MOMENCE 6

Emerson powers Coal City past Momence

By ROB OESTERLE roesterle@shawmedia.com COAL CITY – Heading into Wednesday’s game against Momence, Coal City softball coach Stephanie Harmon said she had concerns about her team’s offense.

Those concerns were alleviated several hours later when Coal City beat Momence, 11-6, evening its record to 5-5.

Led by cleanup hitter Mackenna Emerson, the Coalers rapped out 11 hits and scored at least one run in five of its six at-bats. Emerson went 3 for 4, saving her biggest hit for last.

After singling and doubling in her first two times to the plate, Emerson led off the bottom of the fifth with Coal City trailing 6-5.

She jumped on a fastball and drove it over the center field fence to tie the score and give the Coalers the boost they needed to overcome the Redskins.

“I was just waiting for that pitch,” Emerson said. “She (Momence pitcher Sydney Reams) throws a lot of strikes, so I knew I would get a pitch to hit. I was able to get it up in the wind and it went out.

Hitting for us is contagious.

Once someone gets it started, it seems like everyone gets going. No one wants to be the one to make the last out in an inning.”

After Emerson landed her homer, Coal City scored two more runs in the bottom of the fifth and added three more in the bottom of the sixth. The Coaler pitching and defense, meanwhile, did not allow another run.

“That home run really changed the momentum for us,” Harmon said. “We haven’t been real aggressive at the plate at times and we fall behind in the count and have to chase pitches. Tonight, their pitcher was throwing a lot of strikes and I told the girls to be aggressive.

“We needed to be aggressive. They scored six runs, so we had to get the bats going.

We did a good job up and down the order. It wasn’t just a couple of players hitting. We got girls on base, then we were

Momence struck first, scoring two in the top of the first.

Coal City answered with three in the bottom half, all with two outs. Leah Campos started the rally with a single, and Emerson followed with another.

Winning pitcher Leslie Youskevtch reached when a fly ball to right was dropped and rolled to the fence, scoring both Campos and Emerson and sending Youskevtch to third. Abby Olsen followed with an RBI double to right to make the score 3-2.

Neither team scored in the second, but Momence tied the game in the third when Megan Lanie doubled to right-center and scored on a single by Mattie Lanie.

With one out in the bottom of the third, Emerson doubled to right-center and scored an out later on a single by Abby

Olsen to make it 4-3. Momence tied it in the top of the fourth with an unearned run before Coal City got the lead back in the bottom of the fourth. Carly Pavlis led off by reaching on an error and was sacrificed to second by Cali Caruso. Tay-

pitch scored Megan Lanie. The throw to get her at the plate hit her and bounced away, allowing Matti to score on the same play for a 6-5 Momence lead. The Coalers got out of the inning without further harm, setting up the rally in the bottom of the fifth. In the bottom of the sixth, the Coalers got RBI singles from Youskevtch and Pavlis, with Youskevtch also scoring on a wild pitch.

On the mound, Youskevtch went five innings, allowing six hits and striking out two. Emily Aichele threw the final two innings for the save, striking out two.

OPINION

Observing Easter abroad, at home “ISIS is an army of the devil,” Father Dankbar Issa, a Chaldean monk, tells the charity group Aid to the Church in Need. “There is no other explanation for what they are doing to people,” he said just after Palm Sunday Mass.

While Father Issa worries deeply about the prospects of the children and their families who have been forced from their homes by the Islamic terrorist group, he does not bemoan their lot.

“We Christians were baptized into the suffering of our Lord. So persecution is something we have to expect,” he told the crowd. “We know that Easter, which means life, will be victorious. It gives us hope in spite of all the difficulties.”

Archbishop Bashar Warda, of the city of Erbil in Iraq’s Kurdistan region, reports to Aid in the Church in Need that he sees Christian families leaving Iraq every day, even as “the humanitarian situation has since stabilized.”

Alejandro Bermudez, a Peruvian-born journalist who runs the Spanish language ACI Prensa and Catholic News Agency, went over to Iraq to be with the persecuted for Easter.

There he found Christians helping others whose lives have been irrevocably changed by the terror of ISIS. About 450,000 Yazidi – a small religious minority that ISIS considers devil worshippers – are described as “the poorest of the poor” by a Shelan Jibrael, a Christian Iraqi who works with a Japanese NGO. They have “nothing and nobody,” she says.

They do have Jibrael, who is committed to caring for the meek and the persecuted.

And they need her. Bermudez told the story of a girl named Elmyra, a 9-year-old from

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Kathryn Jean Lopez Kurdistan, who told him: “My daddy is alive, not like the other children that have lost their father; but my brother is sick.”

Her older brother, who is 11, is suffering from the post-traumatic stress effects of the violence, and also needs an operation to correct a problem with his eyes.

Jibrael intends to enlist the aid of Slovakian doctors who have set up a clinic nearby. Dr. Zuzana Dudova observes the few practical options available to the many displaced Christians: “The men try to find work so they can move into a single-family home, but there are few opportunities, and the lack of security makes going back impossible in the short term.”

Meanwhile, on Easter Sunday in the United States, the morning press shows focused on the obvious news story of the day: Christ’s resurrection.

The Christians in Iraq and those who make pilgrimages there remind us of Jesus’ love, suffering and sacrifice, and our duty to imitate all three.

Christians fleeing their homes and flocking to help the displaced show us the radical call of the love that was demonstrated on the Cross, the whole point of Holy Week.

They show us Christian hope.

They live Easter every day.

Human investments make fiscal sense While granted a small reprieve for FY 2015, human service programs across the state once again will face significant cuts in the state budget as Illinois rightly tries to put its fiscal house in order.

Yet critical services to at-risk populations hang in the balance, as do long-term repercussions for the state’s economy. The decisions made by state leaders over the next few months on details of human service policy and funding will have an impact on our future economic health as surely as unfunded pensions do today.

As a society, we invest in human services — education, health, job training, child care — to ensure a basic quality of life for our most vulnerable citizens, and to improve the economic future of our families and our state.

Early education is an area where most people fundamentally understand that funding for preschool and early learning pays off handsomely down the line for our youth. All of society benefits.

Yet “early intervention” to avoid cascading negative consequences applies to far more than preschool. Targeted services to Wendy help the elderly DuBoe or disabled stay in their homes is far less expensive to society than institutionalization. Access Mark to preventative Burton health services and screenings is much less costly than dealing with untreated and full-blown health episodes.

Providing after-school programs to at-risk youth is a small price to pay when weighed against the alternatives, including the astronomical costs of incarceration. These investments provide a moral dividend that is obvious, and an economic one we risk jettisoning without thoughtful decision-making.

GUEST VIEW

We realize government cannot, and should not, fulfill our human service infrastructure needs alone. Sustaining quality and efficient human services in our state will require a collaborative effort among government, civic and private sectors, but private philanthropy can never play the primary role financially that the government plays.

State leaders have human services expertise available to them, including United Way’s significant experience working with partners to focus and leverage resources.

With an emphasis on prevention, integration of services and measurable and meaningful outcomes, we and others in the nonprofit sector look forward to working with state leaders to effectively balance budget requirements and human needs.

PUZZLES CROSSWORD

SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

You must get out of partner’s way

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Michael Showalter, a comedian, actor, writer and director, said, “I am a big proponent of writing a great outline. That way you can avoid hitting a roadblock. There is no worse feeling than writing yourself into a corner, but if you’ve figured it all out in the outline, then you won’t have that problem.”

We have a roadblock in bridge – it is featured in this deal, where third hand must decide whether to play high or low at trick one, which is our theme this week.

South is in three no-trump. West leads his fourth-highest heart to dummy’s singleton king. What should happen after that?

South starts with seven top tricks: three spades, one heart (the first trick), one diamond and two clubs. He will take the diamond finesse for his contract. If it wins, he will collect two overtricks. If the finesse loses, perhaps hearts will be 4-4 or the defenders will err.

When West leads a low heart, which promises at least one honor in the suit, and dummy’s king wins the first trick, East must play his queen.

This serves two purposes: It tells partner about the queen and jack, allowing him to underlead the ace on the next round; and it unblocks the suit.

Declarer will take the losing diamond finrtesse, whereupon the defenders can run four heart tricks – but only if East unblocked the queen at trick one.

There are two other points. From the Rule of Eleven, East knows South has only one heart above the six, so playing the queen cannot cost. And no, the queen cannot be a singleton ... unless South opened one no-trump with six hearts in his hand.

‘Tight’ blood sugar control might not be best course Dear Dr. K: I have Type 2 diabetes. For years, my doctor emphasized the importance of tight blood sugar control.

But I recently read that tight control might not make sense for everyone. Why not?

Dear Reader: Millions of people with diabetes, and their doctors, are asking the same question. It’s a confusing and controversial area. I’ll do my best to put it in context and to explain my own views.

People with Type 2 diabetes have high levels of blood sugar if they don’t take medication that lowers their blood sugar level. Some medicines that successfully lower blood sugar – particularly insulin and sulfonylurea drugs – can be too successful, however: They

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff can drop sugar levels too low.

This can produce confused thinking, sleepiness, falls and fractures, loss of consciousness and even death.

So the goal in treating diabetes is to lower high blood sugar levels to normal, but not to below normal. Getting the levels down to normal is called “tight control” of blood sugar.

There are two ways of measuring blood sugar. You can measure the sugar level at the moment you sample the blood, or you can estimate what the average sugar level has been

over the past two to three months using a test called hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Most doctors urge their diabetic patients to aim for an HbA1c of 7 percent or less. This is considered tight control.

Aiming for tight blood sugar control makes sense for almost all patients when they are first diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. In large part, because often it can be achieved with diet and exercise alone. Diet and exercise sometimes can lower blood sugar levels to normal – without the risk of dropping them too low.

Several studies over the past decade have indicated using medicines to achieve tight control in older ill patients may lead to worse health

than shooting for somewhat less than tight control. Tight control may be too much of a good thing. A more modest goal (targeting an HbA1c level between 7 percent and 8.9 percent, for example) might make more sense.

A recent study of 1,288 people age 65 or older found about two-thirds of people in relatively poor health had achieved an average HbA1c of 7 percent or less over the 10-year study period.

That sounds like good news: Controlling blood sugar helps prevent long-term health problems. But the authors of the study argue that for the sicker patients, the longterm benefit would likely be outweighed by the short-term

risks of periodically causing dangerously low blood sugar.

Their study did not directly demonstrate such health risks; it was not designed to do so.

If you are taking insulin or sulfonylurea drugs, particularly if you have several other diseases besides diabetes, talk to your doctor.

You might benefit from more frequent home blood sugar testing to detect low blood sugar. If the testing reveals your blood sugar sometimes gets below normal, maybe it’s better to reduce the dose of medicine a bit.
