EPC win

The Pearl City-Eastland Wildcats football team won Friday’s home conference game against Pecatonica by a score of 49-8.

Time for a cool change in Orangeville SPORTS CORRESPONDENT

It came as a breath of fresh air, a silver lining, a rainbow following the storm. Metaphors can describe to a point how Orangeville faithful reacted after notching their first hex in the hitching post, following a 3628 NUIC Upstate win over Warren/ Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, on Friday, Sept. 9.

The Broncos opened the season against the undefeated and State-ranked Stockton Blackhawks and followed that up with a match against the NUIC Northwest leading and undefeated Warriors from East Dubuque High School in week two.

Orangeville was coming off contests against two teams that are probably going to be playing through late October. Warren provided a chance to stop and assess.

Warren/Our Lady of the Sacred Heart is 0-3. They played post-season football in 2015 but have seen

the stress and pain mount, earned through nightly competition in the NUIC in 2016.

It was known that the contest between Orangeville and Warren had the chance to be entertaining.

As the teams exchanged pleasantries across the line of scrimmage, time wound down, through the first quarter, with each team answering the other’s efforts. At the 7:25 mark of the first period, the visitors struck first on a pass play, netting into a 35yard score. The two-point try was good. Orangeville had the lead, 8-0.

Special teams play struck back for Warren. With 2:15 to go in the opening period, Andrew Kaiser collected the punt offering and carried it in and around the Broncos’ defenders.

Payton Calow assured the two-point play would succeed. Scoring ceased in the opening period. After the first quarter, the match was tied at eight.

quarter. Shortly after gaining position inside the Warren 20, a six-yard run for score gave the visitors their second lead of the night, 16-8. 10:46 remained in the half.

Warren responded at the 9:40 mark in the second. Calow connected with Kaiser, as he broke free from coverage and carried the ball into the end zone from 48-yards away. The extra point attempt failed. The Orangeville lead was two points, 16-14.

The passing game retaliated for Orangeville. With a little over a minute elapsed, following the Warren score, the Broncos connected for the third time. This time on a 59-yard touchdown pass. Orangeville’s lead was pushed to 22-14. The two-point

play attempt failed.

Warren/Our Lady of the Sacred Heart responded at the 3:59 mark, cutting the Orangeville edge.

As time worked under two minutes to go before the half, Orangeville got on the board one final time. This time on a 32-yard touchdown run. At the half, Orangeville’s lead was six, 28-22.

Neither team scored in the third, but got busy in the final frame.

At the 11:55 mark in the final period, Orangeville ran one in from six-yards away, the lead jumped to 14, 36-22.

A little over three minutes later, Calow ran one in, calling his own number, scrambling 16-yards for the

score. The two-point attempt failed.

Warren/Our Lady of the Sacred Heart moved to within eight points, 36-28.

Scoring concluded, as the night prepared to come to a close.

The contest would end with the Broncos improving to 1-2 on the season. Warren dropped to 0-3.

Orangeville faces Milledgeville this Friday night and will travel to take on the conference leading Aquin Bulldogs on Friday, Sept. 23.

Warren plays at River Ridge this Friday night, before heading home next week to take on Polo. On Friday Sept. 30, Warren/Our Lady of the Sacred Heart takes on Class 1A powerhouse, Stockton.

FDA issues recommendations to reduce the risk for Zika virus blood transmission in the United States As a safety measure against the emerging Zika virus outbreak, today the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a new guidance recommending the deferral of individuals from donating blood if they have been to areas with active Zika virus transmission, potentially have been exposed to the virus, or have had a confirmed Zika virus infection.

“The FDA has critical responsibilities in outbreak situations and has been working rapidly to take important steps to respond to the emerging Zika virus outbreak,” said Luciana Borio, M.D., the FDA’s acting chief scientist. “We are issuing this guidance for immediate implementation in order to better protect the U.S. blood supply.”

While there have been no reports to date of Zika virus entering the U.S. blood supply, the risk of blood transmission is considered likely based on the most current scientific evidence of how Zika virus and similar viruses (flaviviruses) are spread and recent reports of transfusionassociated infection outside of the U.S. Furthermore, about 4 out of 5 of those infected with Zika virus do not become symptomatic. For these reasons, the FDA is recommending that blood establishments defer blood donations from individuals in accordance with the new guidance.

In areas without active Zika virus

transmission, the FDA recommends that donors at risk for Zika virus infection be deferred for four weeks.

Individuals considered to be at risk include: those who have had symptoms suggestive of Zika virus infection during the past four weeks, those who have had sexual contact with a person who has traveled to, or resided in, an area with active Zika virus transmission during the prior three months, and those who have traveled to areas with active transmission of Zika virus during the past four weeks.

In areas with active Zika virus transmission, the FDA recommends that Whole Blood and blood components for transfusion be obtained from areas of the U.S. without active transmission. Blood establishments may continue collecting and preparing platelets and plasma if an FDA-approved, pathogen-reduction device is used. The guidance also recommends blood establishments update donor education materials with information about Zika virus signs and symptoms and ask potentially affected donors to refrain from giving blood.

“Based on the best available evidence, we believe the new recommendations will help reduce the risk of collecting blood and blood components from donors who may be infected with the Zika virus,”

said Peter Marks, M.D., Ph.D., director of the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research.

Following the issuance of these recommendations, the FDA also intends to issue a guidance that will address appropriate donor deferral measures for human cells, tissues, and cellular and tissue-based products (HCT/Ps), given recent reports of sexual transmission of the virus.

In addition to protecting the nation’s blood supply, the FDA is

VIEWPOINT From the desk of State Page 4 - September 14, 2016 - Shopper’s Guide

Representative Brian W. Stewart

This Sunday is the fifteenth anniversary of the horrendous attacks on our country on Sept. 11, 2001. This day is now known as Patriot Day and is a National Day of Service and Remembrance for the victims. Even though much has changed in the world since that day let us not forget all those lost and their families.

Now, over the past couple of weeks I have been mulling over a topic that has been making headlines – an NFL quarterback has chosen to kneel for the National Anthem instead of standing up and putting his hand on his heart like the rest of his teammates.

Why? The man points to what he perceives to be racial injustices within the judicial system.

I would like to address in this week’s column simply this: what is freedom of speech, and how does freedom of speech apply to this particular instance?

It would be an injustice to speak on freedom of speech without presenting you with the original text; “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.”

For the purposes of this column I will boil it down to this: “Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech.” Abridging, by the way, is a ten dollar word for “Shortening” or “Limiting.” So, essentially the first amendment is written to say that Congress cannot limit an individual’s right to say as they wish. And I can’t think of anyone that would oppose that.

So why are some people saying that if you oppose someone’s actions or

speech, then you yourself are stifling that individual’s freedom of speech? I can think of only two reasons that people would say this: 1) That person may have a fundamental misunderstanding of the Constitution, or 2) That person is trying to silence your expression by purposely misrepresenting the text of the Constitution. In either case, I would like to delve further.

Over the next few paragraphs I wish to make some points that I ask you to consider. If you think I’m incorrect, that’s fine! Because, guess what?

The government shall not make a law abridging your or my right to freedom of speech.

First, I would like to point out that the Constitutional right to freedom of speech applies to (and only to) repercussions from the government for your freedom of speech. If you rail against the government in a letter to the newspaper, you will not be punished. That uniquely American concept holds true for all situations involving an individual and the American government.

Second, freedom of speech does not mean freedom from responsibility.

The Constitution does not provide for a wall of separation between an individual’s speech and the repercussions of said speech between private citizens. For example, if I were your employee, and I cursed you to your face and said “I quit my job;” the Constitution does not provide for my right to show up to work the next day and demand my job back under the guise of my Constitutional right to free speech.

So, the government does not and should not become entangled in the affairs of private citizens in regards to speech.

Third, because an individual is responsible for his own actions, he must expect to face the consequences.

When that same NFL quarterback decided to show up to practice wearing socks that showed pigs wearing police uniforms (“Pigs” is a derogatory slur for police officers), there was an outcry from much of the country. His freedom of speech is safeguarded – by that I mean he isn’t in prison for expressing himself – but he still can be held accountable for his actions. Who can hold him accountable you might ask? Individual fans that refuse to buy his products; his coach who could see to it that he sits on the bench; or team ownership that could cut him from the roster. Freedom of speech does not preclude him from the repercussions of his actions, so he should be prepared to face any of these consequences.

In summation: “Freedom of

Speech” applies only to an individual’s relationship with the government, “Freedom of Speech” does not mean “Freedom from Responsibilities,” and an individual is and should be held responsible for the consequences of his actions. Drawing from these conclusions we must logically conclude that this NFL quarterback can be held accountable by his team and the public at large. He is free to boycott the police, and you are free to boycott him.

No one is taking away anyone else’s freedom.

Winston Churchill summed up everything I hold to be true on this topic in one sentence “Some people’s idea of (free speech) is that they are free to say what they like, but if anyone says anything back, that is an outrage.”

Ironically, a British politician had a

Durbin urges community colleges to assist former ITT Tech students U.S. Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) today urged area community colleges to reach out to and assist students impacted by the sudden closing of all ITT Technical Institute campuses. After years of being one of the worst actors in for-profit education, ITT Tech announced this week it would close its campuses nationally. ITT Tech operated campuses in Arlington Heights, Oak Brook, Orland Park, and Springfield enrolling around 750 students with dozens more scheduled to begin this fall. Speaking at City Colleges of Chicago’s Malcolm X College, Durbin pointed to community colleges as a quality, affordable alternative to the for-profit institutions that will be aggressively recruiting formed ITT Tech students in the coming weeks.

“The collapse of ITT Tech and the uncertainty it has caused in the lives of its students should give anyone considering enrolling in a for-profit college pause. ITT Tech is not unique in the for-profit industry – in its predatory practices, in its poor student outcomes, in its financial instability –and it is likely not the last major for-profit college that will close,” Durbin said.

“I have asked Illinois community colleges to reach out to and assist ITT Tech students, and I am pleased that the Illinois Community College

Board has joined that call and community college presidents, like Malcolm X College’s David Sanders, are responding. Students who have just had the rug pulled out from under deserve an opportunity to get a high quality, affordable education.”

“City Colleges recognizes the challenges former ITT Tech students face with closure of their school and we are committed to ensuring they can access a quality, affordable college education,” said Chancellor Cheryl Hyman.

“I want to commend Senator Durbin for his continued leadership to make sure our students are treated fairly and are able to earn a college degree that has value in the marketplace, without all of the debt.”

“ITT Tech students join a growing list of students of for-profit schools who are left in the lurch after their school was suddenly closed due to fraudulent practices,” said Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan. “My investigations into the for-profit schools industry have revealed predatory recruiting practices and poor accreditation that left students struggling with enormous debt levels and limited job prospects in their chosen fields. The federal government must continue to crackdown on these schools that focus on profits and not on their students.”

Earlier this week, the Illinois Community College Board contacted every community college president in Illinois to address ways to assist displaced students. The Department of Education and the American Association of Community College have also been working to mobilize community colleges across the country, offering guidelines to colleges that include: developing an outreach strategy to connect with ITT Tech students, and designating points of contact for ITT Tech students to address their questions about transfer credits, financial aid, transcripts, and more.

Students recently enrolled at ITT Tech may be eligible for a Closed School Discharge of their federal student loans. Others may wish to assert a Defense to Repayment to have their federal student loans discharged if they believe they were defrauded or misled. Students who wish to seek forgiveness of their federal student loans can visit studentaid.ed.gov/itt for more information about eligibility and how to apply.

ITT Tech was being investigated by more than a dozen state Attorneys General, including Illinois’ Lisa Madigan. The company is also being sued by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for predatory lending and the Securities and Exchange Commission for securities fraud.

Durbin has been working for years to protect students from the predatory practices of the for-profit college industry. While the industry enrolls only about 10% of all college students, they take in 20% of the Department of Education’s federal student aid funds and account for a disproportionate 40% of student loan defaults.

Former ITT Tech students interested in attending City Colleges of Chicago can learn more at: www.ccc.edu/ itttech or by calling 773-COLLEGE.

INFORMATION COMPILED BY DR MIKE WAMPFLER D.C.

After a car accident paramedics are often the first health care professionals who attend to your needs. Their job is to assess whether you should be rushed to the hospital for immediate medical treatment or deal with any life-threatening injuries right on the scene. Fractures, concussions, lacerations and other potential internal injuries will necessitate your escorted trip to the hospital. What if the paramedics tell you that you are not injured enough to go the hospital, but then or even days later you don’t feel quite right? Let’s look at frequent problems your musculoskeletal system often encounters after a car accident.

Drs. Michael & DeeDee Wampfler Premier Chiropractic Some people encounter pain and tension right away. For others, the symptoms may get worse over time.

Whether the impact occurs from the front, the rear or especially the side, your neck is usually the most vulnerable area of your body in any motor vehicle accident (mva). MVA’s involve rapid changes in acceleration

and deceleration. Your body is held relatively still by a seat belt, whereas your head and neck are free to move.

This typically results in the neck moving very rapidly through an excessive range of motion, contributing to hyperflexion-hyperextension injuries that can affect soft tissues in the neck, as well as joint capsules and intervertebral discs. Whiplash is the name commonly given to these types of injuries.

Symptoms from whiplash may include; Neck pain and inflammation Arm pain, numbness or tingling Headaches Nausea Dizziness And because of the nerves that innervate the thyroid, you may experience a weakened thyroid (which may take 6 months to show signs or symptoms Depending upon the degree of injury, your recommended course of action will differ. To determine what you should do, first consult with your chiropractor. Chiropractors are musculoskeletal specialists. They have know-how to assess and treat almost any problem related to the nerves, muscles, joints and connective tissues of the spine. If you already have an established relationship with a chiropractor, then you should already have a set of x-rays to reference. A new set of x-rays after the accident is vital to establishing the extent of injury, and you may need more tests such as an MRI. Muscles around the injured area tend to spasm-effectively splinting the area in an attempt to prevent further damage. Muscle spasm can also cause greater compression and/or irritation of the joints, and nerves leading to more pain and long term damage. Ice is a good idea especially right after the accident. Avoiding sugars in your diet is also a great thing to do right after the accident as well. We often recommend no bread, no pasta and no sugar for at least a week after a major trauma to your spine and nervous system.

Vertebral Subluxations in the neck and upper back are commonly found in those who experience car accidents.

Therefore, at any stage of healing and recovery from whiplash-associated injuries, chiropractic adjustments can reduce pain and restore normal function, especially when the cervical curve has been lost or reduced from normal.

The unfortunate part about old injuries is the joints adapt to an abnormal position and start to rapidly age and break down, causing more stress to the nerves.

has parmesan as a flavor enhancer.

If you are not a kohlrabi fan, you might like this one. What doesn’t taste better than something with cheese?

Roasted Kohlrabi

The not so skinny cook Another Fall Festival has come and gone. The weather was “iffy,” but everything turned out to be just fine. It really was a fall festival kind of weekend. I didn’t win the car, but I heard there were great crowds.

The people who work hard for this celebration should be proud and probably a little bit tired. We had a drop in humidity and temperature.

This next week will be a great fall week—my kind of weather. This week’s columns will continue using the fruits and vegetables of the season.

This slaw recipe uses cucumbers instead of cabbage. The coriander gives it just a different flavor, and the carrots add just the right amount of color. Enjoy slaw made a different way.

Cucumber Slaw

2 C. thinly sliced cucumbers, peeled and seeded ¾ C (2 carrots) shredded carrots ¼ onion, very thinly sliced 2 T. sugar 1 ½ t. ground coriander 1 t. kosher salt ½ t. black pepper ¼ C. apple cider vinegar Stir together all the ingredients in a bowl. Chill, covered, at least 15 minutes and up to 2 hours.

The kohlrabi is really a forgotten vegetable; it is also a vegetable which people either love or hate.

This recipe roasts the kohlrabi and

6 kohlrabi 2 T. olive oil ¾ t. kosher salt Pinch of cayenne 3 T. parmesan 1 T. chopped parsley Peel the kohlrabi and cut into 1-inch wedges; toss with olive oil, salt and cayenne. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast at 450 stirring every 10 minutes, until tender and golden, about 30 minutes. Toss with parmesan and parsley.

This recipe is a one-stop prep because it has the meat and vegetables all rolled into one. If you are not a big chiles fan, use the plain diced tomatoes. The toppings of avocado and cilantro are optional, but they make for a big finish.

Beef and Summer Squash Chili

2 T. extra-virgin olive oil 12 oz. ground beef 1 onion, chopped 1 chile pepper, seeded and chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 2 T. chili powder Kosher salt and black pepper 1 can (15 oz.) can diced tomatoes with green chiles 1 can (15 oz.) pinto beans, do not drain 2 medium zucchini cut into ½ inch pieces 1 avocado diced Cilantro for topping Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, breaking up the meat, until browned, abut 3 minutes.

Add the onion, pepper and garlic.

Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in chili powder, ½ t. salt and 1/8 teaspoon of pepper. Cook, stirring until combined, about 1 minutes.

Add the tomatoes and beans and their liquid to the pot; bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the liquid is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes.

Stir the squash into the pot. Partially cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the squash is tender and the chili thickens slightly, about 10 minutes (add up to ½ cup water if the chili is too thick.) Season with salt. Top each serving of chili with the avocado and some cilantro.

This bar recipe has a little bit of something for everyone. It has three layers (hence the trifecta reference), and each layer adds a new dimension to the taste of the bar. The crunch cereal topping is a great taste to bite into. Enjoy these three-layer bars for dessert or just an afternoon snack.

Trifecta Bars

Brownies 1 stick unsalted butter at room temperature plus more to grease the pan 1 C. sugar ½ C. packed brown sugar 2 large eggs 2 t. vanilla ¾ C. flour ½ C. cocoa powder ¼ t. salt Cookie Layer 2 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature ¾ C. packed light brown sugar 2 T. sugar 1 egg 1 t. vanilla 1½ C. flour ½ t. baking soda ½ t. salt 1 C. chocolate chips

Top Layer 3 T. unsalted butter, plus more for your hands 1 10 oz. bag mini marshmallows 3 C. Rice Crispies Preheat the oven to 325. Line a 9-inch square 2-inch deep baking dish with foil, leaving an overhang; butter the foil. Make the brownie layer. Beat the better, white sugar and brown sugar in a bowl with a mixer on medium speed until creamy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt.

Spread in the prepared pan.

Make the cookie layer: Beat the butter, brown sugar and white sugar in a clean bowl with a mixer on medium speed until creamy, 4 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the flour, baking soda and salt. Stir in the chocolate chips. Gently spoon and spread the cookie dough on top of the brownie batter. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 35-40 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely in the pan.

Make the cereal layer: Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and stir until melted. Remove from the heat and stir in the

cereal. Let cool slightly. Butter your hands and then press cereal mixture on top of the cookie layer.

Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes. Cut into squares.

Stockton sets state-ranked status on standby

By Chris Johnson

SPORTS CORRESPONDENT

Following a 50-6 win over the Polo Marcos on Friday, Sept. 9, the State-ranked Stockton Blackhawks got another push, as they begin to carry a heavy load.

With a top ranking comes a lot of pressure and the Blackhawks are about to rediscover that, as week the second-third of the football season begins. They won’t be spending too much time worrying about it, however.

Statistics indicate that Stockton will have to win out the remainder of their games, in order to potentially maintain a number one position in the Class 1A polls, but that is not something that Blackhawks Head Coach Chris Thornton is going to spend too much time concerning himself or his team with.

The Blackhawks are 3-0 on the season and own a share of the NUIC Upstate lead, today. The Aquin Bulldogs are 3-0 and hanging around. Stockton and Aquin will have their chance to battle later this season.

The Bulldogs offense was on

mark and easily dispatched Durand in their Sept. 9 showdown. The running clock began, as game play concluded, following a first half of action.

Stockton has to contend with those same Bulldogs this Friday night. However, Durand is 0-3 on the season and the Blackhawks seem to handle Durand fairly well.

Stockton travels to Pecatonica for a showdown with a team that is in search of some answers. Stockton will be heavily favored, as the winless Indians have given up over 53 points a game, on average, this year.

Week six features the Blackhawks closing in on locking down a playoff ticket for the upcoming Class 1A Tournament. They will be

favored to knock back winless Warren/Our Lady of the Sacred Heart and claim their qualifier’s card.

By week seven, Stockton’s focus could be shifting towards securing a first-round home game, when the Class 1A Tournament begins on Friday, Oct. 28. It also produces the next recognizable challenge for Stockton, as they will be tak-

ing on the Milledgeville Missiles, a team that will be looking to keep it at 500 or better and at the same time, hoping to keep their playoff chances alive.

The NUIC Upstate Championship game could be decided in the week eight game. Stockton and Aquin take to the field on Friday, Oct. 14 at Stockton.

Lena-Winslow wins and stays a game back in conference race

By Chris Johnson

SPORTS CORRESPONDENT

The Lena-Winslow Panthers offense is proficient and its defense can be imposing. Panthers pride was on display on Friday, Sept. 9, as the River Ridge Wildcats fell silent, 58-0. Lena-Winslow moved to 2-1 on the season and sits someStockton 50, Polo 6 what uncomfortably, a game beBlack Hawk 36 Scales Mound 6 Lena-Winslow 58, River Ridge 0 hind three undefeated programs, Forreston, East Dubuque and EastEPC 49, Pecatonica 8 land-Pearl City..

High school football scores

The Panthers offense cruised through the half and entered the stages of a non-stop game clock.

River Ridge could not keep pace and was unsuccessful garnering first downs.

The Lena-Winslow offense kept the chains moving, with big plays and break-away scores filling the evening with cheers.

The road will remain difficult for Lena-Winslow, even as the secondthird of the season gets underway this Friday night at Galena.

The Pirates are struggling. They have limited manpower to work with and sit with West Carroll and Pecatonica, with an 0-3 mark at the bottom of the pack.

In week five, another conference test waits for the Panthers as they prepare to take on the Dakota Indians. The 2-1 Indians were shut-out by the top-ranked Forreston Cardinals, and sit with Amboy-LaMoille and Lena-Winslow, a game back.

In week six, Lena-Winslow will get its shot at the Clippers, as they return home for a one-game stand.

On Oct. 7, as many teams in the NUIC Northwest and Upstate are looking to secure their position for consideration and participation in the 2016 post-season, the Panthers will battle at Forreston.

Week eight sends Lena-Winslow home where they will face one of the teams they currently trail in the NUIC, East Dubuque.

The regular season ends on Friday, Oct. 21 as the Panthers host West Carroll. The post-season begins one week later and statistics seem to indicate Lena-Winslow will be there. It isn’t clear yet, as to whether they will be starting the Tournament at home or not.

Surviving the final six games of the season with less than one loss makes a home game highly likely for Lena-Winslow when the playoffs open. Two losses added over that same span may not allow a home game to occur in week one, but given the strength of the NUIC Northwest this season, 6-3 still might get it done.

A fourth plane crashed into a Pennsylvania field, killing all on board, after passengers and crew attempted to wrest control from the hijackers.

In response, NEADS scrambles two fighter planes located at Cape Cod’s Otis Air National Guard Base to locate and tail Flight 11; they are not yet in the air when Flight 11 crashes into the North Tower.

• 8:41 a.m. – United Airlines Flight 93, a Boeing 757 with 44 people aboard, takes off from Newark In-

Upholding the Legacy of Those We Lost on September 11th

By Barack Obama

15 years. We’ve delivered devastating blows to the al Qaeda leaders that attacked us on 9/11. We delivered justice to Osama bin Laden.

We’ve strengthened our homeland security. We’ve prevented attacks.

We’ve saved lives.

At the same time, the terrorist threat has evolved, as we’ve seen so tragically from Boston to Chattanooga, from San Bernardino to Orlando. So in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and beyond, we’ll stay relentless against terrorists like al Qaeda

and ISIL. We will destroy them. And we’ll keep doing everything in our power to protect our homeland.

Presidential Proclamation -- Patriot Day and National Day of Service and Remembrance, 2016 By the President of the United States Of America Fifteen years ago, nearly 3,000 innocent lives men, women, and children who had been going about their normal routines were taken from us,

depriving families and loved ones of a lifetime of precious moments. But the acts of terror of Sept. 11, 2001, sought to do more than hurt our people and bring down buildings: They sought to break our spirit and

destroy the enduring values that unite us as Americans. In the years that followed, our capacity to love and to hope has guided us forward as we worked to rebuild, more sound and resilient than ever before. With the hearts of those we lost held faithfully in our memories, we reaffirm the unwavering optimism and everlasting strength that brought us together in our darkest hour, and we resolve to give of ourselves in service to others in that same spirit.

The pain inflicted on our Nation on Sept. 11 was felt by people of every race, background, and faith. Though many young Americans have grown up without knowing firsthand the horrors of that day, their lives have been shaped by it. They hear of the many acts of service that occurred coworkers who led others to safety, passengers who stormed a cockpit, and first responders who charged directly into the fire. Many Americans did everything they could to help survivors, from volunteering their time to donating food, clothing, and blood.

And many signed up to don our Nation’s uniform to prove to the world that no act of terror could eclipse the strength or character of our country.

United by a common creed, a com-

mitment to lifting up our neighbors, and a belief that we are stronger when we stand by one another, we must find the courage to carry forward the legacy of those who stepped up in our time of need. By devoting ourselves to each other and recognizing that we are a part of something bigger than ourselves just as heroic patriots did on September 11 we are paying tribute to their sacrifices. On this National Day of Service and Remembrance, we must ensure that darkness is no match for the light we shine by engaging in acts of service and charity. I invite all Americans to observe this day with compassionate and selfless deeds that embody the values that define our people, and to visit www.Serve.gov to find opportunities to give back to their communities.

America endures in the tenacity of our survivors, and in the dedication of those who keep us safe. Today, we honor all who lost their lives in the heartbreaking attacks of Sept. 11, and all who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country in the years that followed. In memory of these beautiful souls, we vow to keep moving forward. Let us have confidence in the values that make us American, the

liberties that make us a beacon to the world, and the unity we sustain every year on this anniversary. Above all, let us stand as strong as ever before and recognize that together, there is nothing we cannot overcome.

By a joint resolution approved Dec. 18, 2001 (Public Law 107-89), the Congress has designated Sept. 11 of each year as “Patriot Day,” and by Public Law 111-13, approved April 21, 2009, the Congress has requested the observance of Sept. 11 as an annually recognized “National Day of Service and Remembrance.”

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim Sept. 11, 2016, as Patriot Day and National Day of Service and Remembrance. I call upon all departments, agencies, and instrumentalities of the United States to display the flag of the United States at half-staff on Patriot Day and National Day of Service and Remembrance in honor of the individuals who lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001. I invite the Governors of the United States and its Territories and interested organizations and individuals to join in this observance. I call upon the people of the United States to participate in community service in honor of those our Nation lost, to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities, including remembrance services, and to observe a moment of silence beginning at 8:46 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time to honor the innocent victims who perished as a result of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this ninth day of Sept., in the year of our Lord two thousand sixteen, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-first.

In spite of the bad weather and flooded fairgrounds, nearly 3,400 4-H exhibits from across Illinois were displayed and judged during the Illinois State Fair. 48 Stephenson County 4-H members braved the weather and less-than-ideal parking conditions to make the long trek to the State Fairgrounds in hopes of winning top award for the hard work they put into their projects throughout the year. Those 48 members earned the right to exhibit at the State Fair by being selected in the top of their division at the various local 4-H Shows held this past spring and summer in Stephenson County.All members who exhibit at the State Fair receive an award of excellence for participating. Of those, about 25 percent statewide received the added honor of earning “Superior Awards” which is the State Fair’s highest award.

Youth receive individual time with professionals who judge in their specific project area. Youth share their knowledge and skills gained in the project, and judges offer constructive critique, suggestions for improvement and praise.

“Conference judging allows youth to demonstrate their mastery beyond just what the exhibit may show,” said Judy Mae Bingman, University of Illinois Extension 4-H Media and Communications Specialist. “The final awards are based both on the execution of the project work and the interview process.”

15 Stephenson County members received the Superior Award, including: Ellie Bower of Lena - Photography; Alivia Bruning of German Valley - Photography; Chancellor Clay of Freeport – Outdoor Adventures; Conor DeZell of Pearl City – 4-H Cooking 201; Kegan DeZell of Pearl City – 4-H Cooking 101; Micah Glendenning of Lanark – Computer Programming; Krista Keene of Lena – Citizenship; Anna Kuper of Shannon – Child Development Innovation; Michelle Marck of Freeport – Fashion Revue; Jessica Parham of Freeport – Junkdrawer Robotics; Oliver Petta of Pearl City – Electricity; Cody Pitts of Pearl City – Robotics Platform; Jase Sheffey of Pearl City – Animal Science; Kiera Watson of Freeport – Geology; and Brian Welling of Dakota - Woodworking.
