LOCKPORT – Ron Caneva will leaveafter 40 years as Lockport city attorneyand be replaced, at least temporarily, byformer Joliet City Manager Tom Thanas.

Caneva said he plans to retire Dec. 31from his position, but will assist the cityon a part-time basis next year. Thanas,who most recently served in a temporaryappointment as a Will County CircuitCourt judge, will be hired as city attor-ney, although it’s not known how long hewill stay, City Administrator Ben Bensonsaid.

Thanas was appointed by Mayor Ste-ven Streit and unanimously approved bythe city council after a closed session atWednesday’s meeting.

Benson said Thanas will be paid asmuch as Caneva in his new role, an esti-mated $124,000 annual salary.

Thanas was Benson’s boss when Ben-son was assistant city manager in Jolietbefore taking the Lockport job.

Benson said city officialschose Thanas because of hismunicipal knowledge andexperience.

In the past, Thanasserved as city attorney forJoliet and Naperville, aswell as regional counsel forHarrah’s Casino. He be-came Joliet’s city managerin 2008 before he resignedin 2013 and was appointedto the circuit court.

Benson worked forThanas in Joliet as direc-tor marketing and com-munications before beingappointed assistant citymanager.

“I was certainly able to learn a lot fromhim and consider him a mentor,” Bensonsaid.

Thanas said he was excited to be a cityattorney again. His 11-month appoint-ment as judge ended Dec. 1. He chose notto run for election.

“I thought it was a good opportunity towork with [Benson] again and help himout and do the best I can for the city ofLockport,” Thanas said.

Benson said the city plans to haveThanas as its attorney for as long as heis available. City officials might considerusing services from another law firm orbring in another attorney.

“Really, Lockport has so much goingon in development and growth that wecould use a multifaceted approach when itcomes to attorneys,” he said.

Caneva said he chose to retire becausehe believed it was time. He notified MayorStreit in September to give him time tofind a replacement.

Caneva recalled his first time as theattorney was “a lot of fun,” and he was justa year out of law school.

Since that time, he watched the city’spopulation grow and engage in “boundarywars” over what could be considered thecity’s limits.

“It’s great. I had very good mayors andcouncil members,” Caneva said.

Plainfield library board seat up for electionBy VIKAAS SHANKER

[email protected]

PLAINFIELD – The Plain-field Public Library Board ofTrustees officially has an openseat, giving potential candi-dates about two weeks to circu-late petitions to get on the Aprilballot.

The board voted at a specialmeeting Thursday morningto approve the resignation ofTrustee Gretchen Fritz.

Fritz, elected to a seat on theWill County Board, sent in herletter of resignation Sunday.The board had to approve theresignation before potentialcandidates could circulate pe-titions.

A 1991 opinion by the IllinoisAttorney General’s office statesa citizen can’t serve as a librarytrustee and county board mem-ber.

Fritz did not attend the meet-ing, but other board membersin attendance all voted to accepther resignation. Fritz had beena trustee since spring 2013.

There are four seats up for

election April 7. Trustees Sha-ron Kinley, Crystal Andel andCarl Gilmore’s seats are up forfour-year terms, and Fritz’s seatis up for a two-year term.

The board will be decidingwhether to ap-point someone toher seat until theelection or leave itvacant.

“I wonder ifit’s very fair toask someone tocome on for fourmonths ... that

they may not be continuing af-ter May of 2015,” Gilmore said.

But Director Julie Milavecsaid it could be a useful oppor-tunity to train someone, de-pending on who files petitions,adding that three former trust-ees already have expressed in-terest.

“If we only lined up with onecandidate for the two-year un-expired term on the ballot, thenit may make sense to simplyappoint that person in advanceknowing that they’re basicallya shoo-in,” Milavec said.

Resignation timingFritz’s resignation was on the

agenda for the Nov. 19 meeting,but Fritz asked to table that itembecause the official Novemberelection results weren’t official.

Fritz did not appear to bein danger of losing the countyboard election because she helda 1,800 vote advantage over in-cumbent Reed Bible. The WillCounty Clerk’s office certifiedthe election Nov. 25.

If the library board hadnot called the special meetingThursday, Fritz’s resignationwould have been accepted at theDec. 19 regular meeting – mean-ing those interested in her seatwould only have three days togather and submit a 50-signaturepetition.

Attempts to reach Fritz forcomment Thursday were un-successful. Anyone interested inrunning for the board can pickup petition forms at the library,15025 S. Illinois St. in Plainfield,between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Pe-titions must be filed betweenDec. 15 and 5 p.m. Dec. 22 at thelibrary.

As Will County’s go-to per-son for economic development,John Greuling may be one ofthe most qualified to commenton the booming pace of develop-ment experienced with Center-Point Properties’ two inter-modals in Joliet and Elwood.

“The speed of the develop-ment has been the most shock-ing,” said Greuling, longtimepresident and CEO of the WillCounty Center for EconomicDevelopment. “I don’t thinkanybody anticipated the rateof the development and thedensity of development we’veseen in the last 12, 13 years.”

The Oak Brook-based Cen-terPoint announced earlierthis year a handful of projectsthat will lead to the Jolietindustrial park being halfwaybuilt out.

The latest projects in Jolietinclude a 406,000-square-footdistribution facility for Neo-via Logistics Services, a four-acre container yard for BridgeTerminal Transport adjacentto the Union Pacific Intermod-al Yard, and a 485,476-square-foot speculative building notyet sold or leased.

At full capacity, the Jolietintermodal will total about3,500 acres and 20 millionsquare feet of building space,Eric Gilbert, senior vice pres-ident of infrastructure and lo-gistics at CenterPoint, said inan email. Elwood’s 2,500-acre

industrial park is essentiallybuilt out.

Opponents of CenterPoint’sdevelopment point to the in-creasing number of semitrail-ers seen driving on local roadsand interstates, but support-ers argue the two facilities’success as a transportationhub makes its one-of-a-kind inthe Midwest.

CHANGING GLOBAL MARKETGreuling said much of the

fast-paced expansion at Cen-terPoint’s two intermodals

– which, combined, is amongthe largest inland ports inNorth America – has to dowith timing.

The world was experi-encing a major shift in theglobal supply chain in theearly 2000s – right around thetime CenterPoint Propertiestargeted the former JolietArmy Ammunition Plantnear Elwood for development,Greuling said. Manufacturedgoods from Mexico, Canadaand Europe were declining,he said, while goods from the

Pacific Rim and China weretaking off.

Those goods wound up inthe Midwest via two majorWest Coast rail lines – BNSFand Union Pacific – whichnow serve the CenterPoint’stwo intermodal facilities, hesaid.

“That major shift in theglobal supply chain was goingon,” Greuling said. “Wheth-er, it was genius or luck or acombination of all of that, Ithink the timing couldn’t havebeen better.”

‘TIME IS MONEY’Mark Schneidewind, man-

ager for the Will County FarmBureau, said CenterPoint’spresence in Joliet and Elwoodhas greatly improved the localfarming industry’s operations.He said he’s excited about thedevelopment of a trans-loadfacility for Saturn Agricultureto help transfer local soybeansand dried distilled grains intointernational containers.

JOLIET TOWNSHIP –Charles Kinney stood in themiddle of Middletree Roadon Thursday afternoon,looked at his home of 29 yearsand shook his head.

“This stuff don’t happentwice,” Kinney said.

His chuckles turned tosobs as he sank down on thestreet next to the red SUV thatbelongs to East Joliet FireChief Robert Scholtes. Scholtesstood nearby coordinatingfirefighters efforts to save Kin-ney’s home for the second timein four years.

Kinney regained his com-posure quickly by repeatingno one was injured in the blazethat took more than two hoursto extinguish.

Kinney’s 13-year-old grand-

son, who has asthma and istaking medication, was sleep-ing inside when the fire start-ed about 2:19 p.m., but woke upand reached the front door.

“I was coming back fromdowntown Joliet and saw thesmoke around the corner. Iturned and the street was fullof smoke coming from thehouse,” Kinney said.

Kinney made sure hisgrandson got out and thenmade sure his wife’s dog alsoescaped.

“That was hard. She wasrunning all over the place,”Kinney said.

Kinney, his wife, two oftheir children, his son’s girl-friend and six grandchildrenlive in the house.

Kinney and Scholtes re-called the single-story ranchwas heavily damaged duringan electrical fire in 2010, but

was rebuilt.Scholtes said the damage

from Thursday’s fire is “exten-sive.” The fire appears to have

started in the basement and nocause had been determined byThursday afternoon.

“The floor of the living

room collapsed so it was verydifficult to reach the base-ment,” Scholtes said. Crewsused axes and sledgehammersto break open the concrete wallthat housed the living roomwindows to get hoses into thebasement.

Channahon, Homer, Lock-port Township, Manhattan,New Lenox, Northwest Ho-mer, Rockdale and Wilming-ton fire departments assistedEast Joliet at the scene.

After embracing relativeswho became distraught asflames erupted from the liv-ing room windows, Kinneyfound two cases that appearedto hold guitars at the far side ofthe house and took them out ofthe firefighters’ way.

He asked Scholtes if theRed Cross was contacted toarrange lodging and was toldthey had been.

OldWal-Mart store being put to use

By LAUREN LEONE–[email protected]

JOLIET – For seven longyears, the Wal-Mart store at 305S. Larkin Ave. has sat vacant.

That will change after theJoliet City Council’s vote ear-lier this week allowing Deal-Point Merrill, LLC – a nation-wide real estate developmentand property managementfirm – to convert the vacantbuilding into an indoor storagefacility.

“There’s nothing but posi-tives that’s going to come outof this,” District 3 Council-man John Gerl said Thursday.“Right now, there’s graffiti onthe walls. It’s just not attrac-tive.”

The 116,000-square-foot Wal-Mart building has been sittingvacant since 2007, when it wasreplaced with the new Super-center store on West Jefferson

Street.Since that time, the city had

received just one other propos-al to convert the building fornew use.

“There’s not a lot of uses fora 116,000-square-foot space,”Gerl said.

The 13.4-acre site is listed asa pending sale on Wal-Mart’sRealty website. The listingprice is $2.6 million – downfrom the 2007 asking price of$4.3 million.

The facility would be man-aged by CubeSmart, the fourth

largest self-storage operatorin the U.S. and serve as a cli-mate-controlled “super center”for self-storage with serviceamenities, according to anoutline of DealPoint Merrill’splan.

Some of those amenities

may include commercial andretail self-storage, businesscenter and overnight shipping,truck rentals, and movingsupply sales housed within astorm-proof facility.

At full capacity, there willbe 865 storage units with 24-hour access for renters.

Councilwoman Jan Quill-man said because the proposedstorage facility is set so farback off the street, retail shopsor restaurants could potential-ly open up on site closer to Lar-kin.

The site is one of the firstthings people see when theyget off Interstate 80 and headinto Joliet, she said, so it willbe nice for it to no longer bevacant.

“It was such an eyesore,”Quillman said. “Being one ofthe gateways into the city, I’mglad something is going to bein there and it’s going to look alot nicer than what it is now.”

Gerl said there’s no definitetimeline on when the storagefacility will be complete, but hehopes by early next year.

Plans for Lockportcommunity centertabled at meeting

By FELIX [email protected]

LOCKPORT – ConcernedLockport Township residentscame out in force Thursday toquestion the township’s plansfor a community center.

In a 32-28 vote from resi-dents attending a LockportTownship special meeting, theresolution to give the townshippermission to move forwardwith a plan to build a commu-nity center was tabled to a fu-ture meeting.

Many residents were un-clear about what townshipofficials were asking of them,as well as costs and specifics ofthe community center project.Some were not comfortableapproving the resolution as aresult.

A few residents were sup-portive of the community cen-ter project and wanted at leasta concept plan created.

Lockport resident Carl Be-brich said he didn’t see anyevidence of a plan or commit-ments from organizations whoplan to contribute to the proj-ect.

“It seems to me you’re put-ting the cart before the horse.You need to present a plan tothe electorate on a feasibilitystudy that shows what this isgoing to cost,” he said.

T o w n s h i p S u p e r v i s o rRonald Alberico has said thetownship is proposing to builda community center nearPrairie Bluff Golf Course andLockport Township Fire Pro-tection District. The centerwould mainly serve senior cit-izens and have more space fortownship offices in need of it,such as the assessor and clerkoffice.

The center would potential-ly cost between $5 and $10 mil-lion, with $2 million providedby the township and the restfrom possible state and federalfunding, Alberico has said.

The project would not re-quire a tax increase, he said.

Some residents were con-cerned about the potential in-flux of traffic to the area where

the community center wouldbe built, while others were un-clear what was meant in theresolution concerning “all re-lated costs,” of the project.

When questioned abouthaving a feasibility study, Al-berico said he would need thebacking of the residents to goforward with the project be-fore making any expenses forthe study.

“Should I spend $30,000 to$40,000 of the taxpayers’ mon-ey [on a feasibility study] andthen find out you guys aren’tinterested in it anyway?” hesaid.

Township officials at themeeting also said they lookedat other locations and op-tions – including maintainingtheir stay at Lockport CentralSquare – but needed to finda place that would serve alltownship residents.

Bebrich insisted the town-ship produce a more concreteplan and Alberico said hewould do so if the resolutionpassed.

Before putting the resolu-tion to a vote, a motion wasmade at the meeting to approvea ballot vote for the resolution.The motion passed but Lock-port resident Paul Siegel andBebrich pushed for the resolu-tion itself to be tabled instead.

After a vote count, the reso-lution was successfully tabledto an April 14 meeting.

“I understand the citizens’feelings that maybe it wasn’tclear,” Alberico said about theresolution after the meeting.

“It seems to me you’reputting the cart beforethe horse. You need topresent a plan to the

electorate on a feasibilitystudy that shows whatthis is going to cost.”

Blended learning program shows results in JolietBy SARWAT S. AHMADShaw Media Correspondent

JOLIET – Students at Jo-liet Township high schoolstaking classes that combineindependent study and re-mote learning with tradition-al classroom instruction areachieving higher scores thantheir peers, district teachersreport.

According to reports pre-sented to the District 204board recently by the teachersheading these classes, morestudents get passing grades inthe blended learning classes.More students also performat proficient and advancedlevels than students who at-tend traditional classes in thesame subjects.

The classes combine face-to-face learning twice a weekin the classroom, with remotevideo conferencing and mes-saging. Teaching tools includeemail, Microsoft Lync and thedistrict’s online learning en-vironment called JTLearn.

The subjects available inthe blended learning programare English, government and

economics.Starting this fall, all Dis-

trict 204 students have com-puter devices, the culmi-nation of the district’s 1:1technology initiative start-ed last year when incomingfreshmen were provided withlaptops.

“I was worried about thedynamics and interaction,but that has really workedout well,” said Kelsey Duran-ty, who teaches both regulargovernment classes and oneblended government class atJoliet Central. “Technologyissues were handled in thefirst week.”

Duranty said students inthe blended learning classeshad an average grade of 86compared to an average of 74in regular government class-es.

All students in the new-ly instituted blended classeshave to maintain a minimumgrade of 75 to remain in theprogram.

“All [blended] classesseem to be excelling and out-performing the [traditional]classes by at least 5 percent,”

Duranty said in a later inter-view.

“That extra pressure ofhaving to work on your ownand using other resources, aswell as the minimum 75 aver-age grade required, is helpingthem,” she said. “They are do-ing more exploring learning,which seems to have themmore intrigued and has tak-en their learning to anotherlevel.”

Joe Hoyt’s blended Englishclass at Joliet Central had anaverage grade of 81 comparedto students in his regularclass, who scored an averageof 75.

Ninety percent of the blend-ed class students completedtheir assignments, comparedto 75 percent in the nonblend-ed classes, he said.

The teachers presented avideo of students in the blend-ed learning classes, who gavetheir opinions on the classbenefits. Most indicated thatindependent study providedstudents more control overtheir own curriculum, in-creased technology fluencyand taught students how to

better manage their time tocomplete coursework and as-signments.

Duranty said parents wereapprehensive about enrolling

their students in these newclasses.

But, she said, “I hope itcontinues to grow and thatmore subjects will be offered.”

Plainfield train stoppage diverts ambulanceBy VIKAAS SHANKER

[email protected]

PLAINFIELD – Yet anoth-er stopped Canadian Nationaltrain stymied traffic Thursdayafternoon in downtown Plain-field, causing an ambulance touse another route on an emer-gency call.

This time the delay wasonly for 15 minutes, PlainfieldPolice Chief John Konopeksaid.

“We’re fortunate it was

only stopped for that long,”Konopek said, noting the am-bulance incident.

The ambulance was on anemergency call that was notlife-threatening.

Shortly after 2 p.m., thetrain blocked traffic at cross-ings with Naper-PlainfieldRoad, Route 126, Center Street,Eastern Avenue and LockportStreet.

Konopek said a hotbox de-tector caused the stoppage,explaining the device is posi-

tioned along the tracks, send-ing a signal to stop the train ifone of the train’s tires or wheelassemblies is overheating.

In such a case, the train en-gineer is supposed to stop andcheck the entire train. Stoppedtrains have been a recurringproblem in Plainfield, whichhas several at-grade crossings.

On Nov. 20, a train blockedmorning traffic for 2! hours,creating problems for schoolbuses and motorists headed towork.

Counterfeit bills passed at businesses inMorrisBy CHRISTINA

CHAPMAN-VAN [email protected]

MORRIS – The Secret Ser-vice is assisting Morris policein an investigation into coun-terfeit money.

Morris police have receivedreports of three instanceswhere counterfeit bills werepassed at local businesses.

The first report was madeSunday. Two older style $100bills with the same serial num-ber were passed in the samestore, but in separate trans-

actions, according to a newsrelease from police. It appearsthe offender made small pur-chases in an effort to transferthe counterfeit bills into realdollars.

The offender in this case wascaptured on surveillance vid-eo. He is described as a blackmale, between 18 and 30 yearsold, between 5 feet 10 inches to6’3” tall, weighing between 170and 210 pounds, wearing darkclothing, and a stocking cap. Hepossibly drove a white full sizevan with writing on the side,according to the news release.

“In my experience, there isprobably more than one per-son doing this,” Morris PoliceChief Brent Dite said.

The second report wasmade Tuesday by anotherbusiness. It received a coun-terfeit $20 bill. The businessbelieved the bill was receivedSunday.

A third report was madeby a local bank that receiveda counterfeit $100 bill thatmatched the serial number ofthe previous $100 bills report-ed. This counterfeit was discov-ered by the bank while process-

ing a business’s night deposit.The Seneca Police Depart-

ment also received the samecounterfeit $100 bills on Sat-urday, according to the newsrelease.

The U.S. Secret Service hasbeen notified and has openedan investigation through theChicago Field Office.

“One of their focuses iscounterfeiting,” Dite said.“When we contacted them, itprobably piqued their interestbecause there are likely simi-lar reports in the area. Tradi-tionally, that is why they would

get involved.”Businesses and banks are

advised to be diligent in exam-ining bills that might be coun-terfeit, especially during thisholiday season. If a bill appearsto be counterfeit, contact Mor-ris police at 815-942-2131.

The Secret Service has twowebsites that can offer tips anddownloadable guides: www.newmoney.gov and www.secretservice.gov. The MorrisPolice Department also has alimited quantity of brochures,“Know Your Money,” providedby the Secret Service.

1Quinn left with few,tough options onminimumwage

SPRINGFIELD – A final piece ofoutgoing Gov. Pat Quinn’s lega-cy is up in the air as lawmakersleft Springfield for the yearwithout sending the ChicagoDemocrat legislation increasingIllinois’ minimum wage.After championing the issue

through a grueling re-electionbid, Quinn is left with few toughoptions before Republican Gov.-elect Bruce Rauner takes office.He can call a special session,forcing lawmakers to focuson the issue but at the risk ofthem refusing to act. Or he cantry to persuade House SpeakerMichael Madigan and SenatePresident John Cullerton toreturn, a skill Quinn hasn’t hadmuch success with before.The Senate, which approved

a proposal raising Illinois’ $8.25rate to $11 over time, adjournedThursday with Cullerton sayinghe’s open to returning and willleave the legwork to Quinn.But Madigan, who’s indicatedthere weren’t votes for the plan,adjourned Wednesday with noplans to return until Rauner issworn in. Madigan spokesmanSteve Brown said there’s noindication of a special session inthe works.Quinn wouldn’t spell out what

he intends do. Spokesman GrantKlinzman said “all options areon the table” as Quinn calls andmeets with House lawmakers tourge support of the plan.“We will keep pushing,”

Klinzman said.However, political experts said

persuading House lawmakersor Madigan is unlikely. Quinnhas long had a frosty relation-ship with legislators, and haslittle leverage as a lame-duckgovernor.“Quinn’s problem now, just

like it’s been for most of hisgovernorship, is he doesn’t havevotes in the General Assembly,”said Kent Redfield, professoremeritus at the University ofIllinois at Springfield.Another issue is the track

record for Quinn and his pre-decessors on special sessions.Quinn twice called lawmakers toSpringfield on pensions. Neitherproduced results.“The governor starts to look

ineffectual and starts annoyingthe legislators gratuitously,”said Chris Mooney, a UISpolitical studies professor. “It’sunlikely that it would have anysubstantive effect. It would beembarrassing on the way out.”Quinn made raising Illinois’

wage a campaign bedrock. Hevowed an increase to at least$10 by year’s end. But he’sbeen unable to build a majority,even with voters’ support for anonbinding ballot measure onthe issue.Any momentum began to dissi-

pate when Rauner, a Winnetkabusinessman, asked lawmakers

not to take up major issuesahead of his first term in publicoffice. He supports an increaseonly if it’s paired with otherreforms. Then, earlier this week,Chicago crammed through itscity council a proposal to raisethe city’s wage to $13 by 2019.Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who’sseeking re-election, said heinitially did so to keep legislatorsfrom blocking city efforts. Later,he said he wanted to inspirelawmakers to act.

2Rauner to meetIllinois delegationin Washington

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois Gov.-elect Bruce Rauner plans tospend the day in Washington.U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk’s office

said he will host the incomingRepublican governor and mem-bers of the Illinois congressionaldelegation for a bipartisan lunchon Thursday at the U.S. Capitol.Kirk’s office said the lunch willbe the first post-election delega-tion meeting with Rauner.Rauner defeated incumbent

Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn inthe November general election.

Emirates police arrest womanin American’s stabbing atmall

By FAY ABUELGASIMand ADAM SCHRECKThe Associated Press

ABU DHABI, United ArabEmirates – Police in the UnitedArab Emirates have arresteda woman they say is behindthe stabbing death of an Amer-ican teacher and a separateplot to bomb another Amer-ican’s house, a top officialsaid Thursday as authoritiesmoved swiftly to calm fearsof instability in the normallypeaceful Gulf nation.

Interior Minister Saif binZayed Al Nahyan, who also isdeputy prime minister, saidthe attacker targeted her vic-tims based on their nationalityalone in an attempt to createchaos and terrorize the coun-try. He called the stabbing ofthe woman, who previouslylived in Colorado, a crime thatis “alien to our secure coun-try.”

“The victim of this brutalcrime was a schoolteacher whowas committed to building

strong future generations,” hetold reporters.

Word of the gruesome kill-ing, which left a trail of bloodin a public restroom at an AbuDhabi mall, has rattled theEmirates, a Western-allied,seven-state Gulf federationthat includes the glitzy com-mercial hub of Dubai.

Violent crime and terroristattacks are rare in the oil-richcountry, which is home to alarge foreign-born populationthat far outnumbers Emiraticitizens.

Police say the teacher wasstabbed to death by a butch-er’s knife-wielding attackershrouded in the full black veilcommonly worn by womenthroughout the Gulf Arab re-gion. Emirati authorities iden-tified the victim by the initialsI.R. and said she was 47 yearsold.

The company that placedthe victim in the Abu Dha-bi teaching job, Vancouver,British Columbia-based Foot-prints Recruiting, gave her

name as Ibolya Ryan. Manag-ing Director Ben Glickmantold The Associated Press shestarted teaching in the coun-try last August or Septemberand hoped to continue work-ing in there.

“She was really a kind andenthusiastic person, and shewas really enjoying her timeover there,” Glickman said.

Ryan taught in Colorado be-fore moving to the Emirates,according to Glickman. Sheworked at Palmer Elementa-ry School in Denver from 1997to 2003, Denver Public Schoolsspokesman Doug Schepmansaid Thursday. Colorado re-cords show Ryan had a licenseto teach in Colorado that wasissued in December 2012 andthat she was trained to workwith special education stu-dents with moderate needs.

On a Footprints Recruitingwebpage, Ryan describes her-self as a Hungarian originallyborn and raised in neighbor-ing Romania who trained as ateacher in the U.S. and Europe.

The addition of Saturn willprovide better competitiveprices for commodities, hesaid.

“We’ve already had quitea few exports in this areaalready, so now we’ll have yetanother one. The competitionis good for farmers,” Schnei-dewind said. “When you takea look at everybody sharpen-ing their pencils … to a farm-er, that’s good. Instead of onlyhaving to worry about sellingto one, now there’s four or fiveoptions and the competitionwill drive the price up.”

The addition of new tech-nology at DeLong Company, agrain exporter in CenterPointthat ships grain and ethanolbyproducts worldwide, hasquickened the pace goods canbe loaded into containers andshipped off.

Companies at the Jolietand Elwood intermodals

shipped 110 million bushels,mostly corn and soybeans, forexport markets in 2013.

“Time is money and theyunderstand that,” Schnei-dewind said, noting Center-Point’s prime location neartwo major interstates – I-55and I-80 – and nearby water-ways.

INCREASED TRUCK TRAFFICBut as more development

rolls into the area, so dotrucks. Elwood officials areall too familiar with Center-Point’s fast-paced develop-ment and the trucks that comewith it.

The village and Center-Point are involved in anongoing Illinois CommerceCommission case concerningincreased truck traffic at arailroad crossing along Route53 near its own intermodal.The gates at Walter StrawnDrive railroad crossing nearthe Elwood intermodal werebroken nearly 50 times lastyear.

Elwood Police Chief FredHayes said he’s concernedfuture developments at theJoliet intermodal will leadto even more traffic spill-ing over from Route 53 intoElwood.

“No one is disputing whatCenterPoint has done for thearea, but it should not be doneat the sacrifice and endanger-ment of public safety,” saidHayes, who served 31 yearsin the Joliet Police Depart-ment, including five as chief.“Certainly with the increasedvolume of commercial trucktraffic mixed with residentialareas, the potential for fatali-ties increase.”

In an email, Gilbert saidCenterPoint frequently reach-es out to trucking companiesand other tenants to encour-age use of other routes, suchas I-55 and Arsenal Road.Earlier this year, the devel-oper erected billboards alongInterstate 80 and Route 53to promote the use of otherroutes.

House rebukesPresident onimmigration

By ERICA WERNERThe Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Embold-ened House Republicans issueda stern but symbolic rebuke toPresident Barack Obama overimmigration Thursday, passinga bill declaring his executive ac-tions to curb deportations “nulland void and without legal ef-fect.”

Outraged Democrats, immi-grant advocates and the WhiteHouse said the GOP was votingto tear families apart and ejectparents.

“Rather than deport studentsand separate families and makeit harder for law enforcement todo its job, I just want the Con-gress to work with us to passa commonsense law to fix thatbroken immigration system,”Obama said ahead of the vote.

Even supporters acknowl-edged that the bill by Rep. TedYoho, R-Fla., which says Obamawas acting “without any consti-tutional or statutory basis,” wasmostly meant to send a message.It stands no chance in the Sen-ate, which remains under Dem-ocratic control until January,and faces the veto threat fromObama.

The real fight may lie aheadas conservatives push to usemust-pass spending legislationto block Obama.

For now, Republicans insist-ed they must go on record de-nouncing what they describedon the House floor as an outra-geous power grab by Obama.

“The president thinks he canjust sit in the Oval Office andmake up his own laws. That’snot the way our system of gov-ernment works,” said Rep. SteveScalise, R-La. “This legislationsays you can’t do that, Mr. Presi-dent. There is a rule of law.”

The vote was 219 to 197, withthree Democratic “yes” votesand seven Republican “no”votes. Three Republicans voted“present.”

Obama’s executive actionslast month will extend deporta-tion relief and work permits to

some 4 million immigrants hereillegally, mostly those who havebeen in the country more thanfive years and have childrenwho are U.S. citizens or legalpermanent residents. He alsoreordered law enforcement pri-orities and expanded an existingdeportation deferral programfor immigrants brought illegal-ly as kids.

Compounding the GOP’s an-ger, Obama’s executive actioncame barely two weeks after Re-publicans trounced Democratsin the midterm elections, win-ning control of the Senate andincreasing their majorities inthe House.

Democratic lawmakers ral-lied behind the president Thurs-day, and immigrant advocateswarned Republicans would bealienating Latinos heading into2016 presidential elections inwhich the Hispanic vote is ex-pected to be significant.

“They should rememberthat this is not a fight betweenRepublicans and the president,”said Clarissa Martinez de Cas-tro, of the National Council ofLa Raza. “They will be picking afight with the millions of Amer-ican families who will finallyfind some relief.”

Even as emotions ran highin debate on the bill, many in-volved acknowledged it wasmostly a sideshow as Republi-cans struggled to find some wayto undo what Obama has done –not just register their disapprov-al. Party leaders acknowledgedtheir options were limited givenObama’s veto pen, and no clearsolution beckoned.

The Yoho bill was part of atwo-part strategy by House GOPleadership to appease conser-vative immigration hardlinerswithout risking a governmentshutdown. Their hope was thatafter approving it, Republicanswould move on next week tovote on legislation to keep mostof the government running for ayear, with a shorter timeframefor the Homeland Security De-partment, which oversees immi-gration.

more deaths and hospitaliza-tions, especially in the elderly.“Though we cannot predict

what will happen the rest ofthis flu season, it’s possible wemay have a season that’s moresevere than most,” said Dr. TomFrieden, director of the Centersfor Disease Control and Pre-vention, at a news conferenceThursday.CDC officials think the vaccine

should provide some protectionand still are urging people toget vaccinated. But it probablywon’t be as good as if the vac-cine strain was a match.

Protesters stage a die-in Thursday at Campus Martius park in downtown Detroit in a rally over the nonin-dictment of Eric Garner, a black New York man who died during a police arrest.

Cases converge to stir debateBy TOM HAYS

and COLLEEN LONGThe Associated Press

NEW YORK – From theWhite House to the streetsof some of America’s biggestcities, the New York choke-hold case converged with theFerguson shooting and inves-tigations out of South Caroli-na and Cleveland to stir a na-tional conversation Thursdayabout racial justice and policeuse of force.

A day after a grand jurycleared a white New YorkCity officer in the death of ablack man, civil rights lead-ers pinned their hopes on apromised federal investiga-tion. Demonstrators protest-ed for a second night in NewYork and turned out in suchcities as Denver, Detroit andMinneapolis. And politiciansand others talked about theneed for better police train-ing, body cameras and chang-es in the grand jury processto restore faith in the legalsystem.

“A whole generation of of-

ficers will be trained in a newway,” New York Mayor Billde Blasio vowed he and hispolice commissioner outlinedpreviously announced plansto teach officers how to com-municate better with peopleon the street.

President Barack Obamaweighed in, saying one of thechief issues at stake is “mak-ing sure that people have con-fidence that police and lawenforcement and prosecutorsare serving everybody equal-ly.”

Even before the decisionin the Eric Garner case camedown, racial tensions wererunning high because of lastweek’s grand jury decisionnot to charge a white officerin the shooting death of black18-year-old Michael Brown inFerguson, Missouri.

Other cases were added tothe mix on Thursday:

In the tiny South Caro-lina town of Eutawville, awhite former police chief wascharged with murder in the2011 shooting of an unarmedblack man. Richards Combs’

lawyer accused prosecutorsof taking advantage of nation-al outrage toward police toobtain the indictment morethan three years after the kill-ing.

In Cleveland, the U.S. Jus-tice Department and the cityreached an agreement to over-haul the police departmentafter federal investigatorsfound that officers use exces-sive force far too often, caus-ing deep mistrust, especiallyamong blacks. The investiga-tion was prompted chiefly bya 2012 car chase that endedin the deaths of two unarmedpeople in a hail of 137 bullets.

Just last week, protesterstook to the streets of Cleve-land after a white police of-ficer shot and killed a black12-year-old boy carrying whatturned out to be pellet gun.

At a news conference inNew York after a night ofprotests led to 83 arrests, theRev. Al Sharpton called thestate-level grand jury system“broken” when it comes to po-lice brutality cases and urgedfederal authorities to fix it.

PLAINFIELD SOUTH 47, PLAINFIELD EAST 27

South beats East in SPC openerBy CURT HERRON

[email protected]

PLAINFIELD – With muchof last year’s Southwest Prai-rie Conference championshipteam returning, PlainfieldSouth’s wrestling team under-standably is excited about thisseason.

After an eighth-place show-ing at Barrington last weekenddespite being short-handed,the Cougars were looking for-ward to a good start in SPC ac-tion against Plainfield East.

With no more season-end-ing tournaments to influencewho wins the conference ti-tle, dual meets have taken onextra importance and, as aresult, the defending champswalked away with a 47-27 vic-tory Thursday over the hostBengals.

“Barrington was a goodfirst test for us and to finisheighth without a full lineup isa positive in that kind of a tour-nament,” South coach JasonAcevedo said. “East is always asolid team and I respect coach(Nick) Curby and his coachesand his guys are always readyto battle so whenever you havea chance to get bonus pointsagainst them, it’s a positive.

“They figure to be in themix for the conference title, soto put together a good win is abuilding block. We’re nowherenear being ready and knowthat we made mistakes that wehave to correct to get to our ul-timate goal. One of our goals isto repeat, and without a tour-nament, it makes the dualsmore exciting since this entireconference is tough.”

South jumped out to a 9-0

lead after Nate Karas pinnedAugust Ramos in 3:29 in theopener at 285.

Xavier Gastelum followedby getting a second-period es-cape in a 1-0 win at 106 againstColin Burke.

After the Bengals moved infront after forfeit wins by Mi-chael McGee and Khaalis Al-exander, South’s Marc Fleenorscored the win by injury de-fault in 13 seconds at 126 whenNick Drew was unable to con-tinue the match.

East grabbed its last lead, 18-15, when Zach Krause pinnedDaniel Escobar in 5:13 at 132 be-fore Andrew Bonnor recordeda fall in 3:47 over Keith Bitner.

Liam Hannon followed witha pin in 2:51 over Kevon Floydto give the Cougars a 27-18 lead.

“We did pretty well tonightbut we still need a lot of im-

provement and have to workon some stuff,” Hannon said.“A couple of kids wrestled slop-py but still got it done. We lostMiguel Silva but return 11 guyswho are returning starters.We’re doing pretty well so far.I like that we’re like a family.We hang out, and we’re alwayswith each other.”

After East’s Omar Salazarpulled out an 8-5 win over JoeMinor at 152, South won thenext two to take control.

Adrian Cervantes claimedan 11-3 win over Rob Michalo-wicz at 160 and Derek Biliskovfollowed with a fall in 1:25 overTroy Mayon to make it 37-21.

The Bengals got their finalwin at 182 when Jake Mayonpinned Edwin Hernandez in59 seconds and South respond-ed with a 17-6 victory by Dan-ny Saracco over Zach Dixon

before Eric Johnson closedthings out with a fall in 3:35over Jacob Hughes.

“So far this year has kind ofbeen like a roller coaster,” Ben-gals coach Nick Curby said.“We’ve only wrestled threematches but we’ve looked re-ally good at times and thereare times where it’s like, ‘Man,why aren’t we doing things inmatches that we’re workingon?’

“We’re a little inexperi-enced at some weights so we’restill going to be some of theproblems for awhile. We knewthat South would have a goodteam this year since they werea little younger last year. Weknew that everything wouldhave to fall our way to beatthem. The good news is region-als aren’t next week and wehave time to work on things.”


Plainfield South’s Marc Fleenor takes Plainfield East’s Nick Drew down Thursday in the 126 pound match in Plainfield. Drew couldn’t continue and Fleener won the match.

Gould, Ratliffruled inactive

By KEVIN [email protected]

CHICAGO – Robbie Gould (right quad)missed his first game since 2012, as he was in-active for Thursday night’s game against theCowboys, along with Jeremiah Ratliff, whomissed his fifth game of the season.

Gould was sore and missed Tuesday’s prac-tice and was listed on the Bears injury reportas doubtful. This is only the fourth game he hasmissed since taking over as the Bears’ kickerin 2005. Jay Feely, who signed Wednesday,kicked field goals. He has never kicked in agame at Soldier Field.

Ratliff was out on the field early workingout with Paul Pasqualoni and was deemed un-ready to play. He was limited in practice Mon-day and Tuesday and does not get to face hisformer team. The knee injury also kept himout of last week’s loss to the Lions.

Rookie Will Sutton received the start forRatliff at the three-technique.

The good news for the Bears is that AlshonJeffery (hamstring) and Chris Conte (eye) wereactive after being listed as questionable. Theother Bears inactives were Darryl Sharpton(hamstring), Cornelius Washington (chest),Terrance Mitchell, Khaseem Greene and EbenBritton.

Trevor Scott (knee) returned to action forthe first time since Week 10, and filled in forWashington on special teams and the defensiveline.

Kromer comes to Bears well-traveledOffensive coordinator developsgrasp on NFL offenses

By KEVIN [email protected]

Technically speaking, AaronKromer is in his 25th year ofcoaching football, which is abouthalf his life dedicated to teachingthe game. But really, it goes allthe way back to high school.

“When I was a high schoolplayer, basketball and football,I used to like working with theyoung kids at the camps, so I’dalways go and do those things atthe high schools and in the localarea,” said Kromer, the Bears of-fensive coordinator.

Kromer grew up in Castalia,Ohio, which had a population of935 per the 2000 census. He wentto Miami of Ohio to play foot-ball – offensive tackle – and hadpretty big aspirations consider-ing his hometown.

“I went in to get a teaching de-gree – I thought I was going to bea high school teacher and coach.I was from a small town, and thatwas high ambition in itself.”

Kromer didn’t exactly havea big sports background in his

family, but important traits tolife and coaching were learned inhis household.

In Year 25, Kromer will joinhis fellow staff members in com-ing under criticism for what hasbeen a disappointing season forthe Bears, especially on offense.His two areas of expertise, offen-sive line and running game, haveat times been the only highlights.Kromer was considered one ofthe top assistants in the leaguewhen he came to Chicago fromNew Orleans.

Randy Walker was hired atMiami of Ohio during Kromer’ssenior year and asked Kromer tostay on as a graduate assistant.

Kromer said he was takingthe same coaching path Walkertook with Dick Crum, a headcoach at Miami in the mid-1970sand then North Carolina from1978 to 1987.

In 1999, Kromer made his firstmove to the Chicago area, join-ing Walker on the Northwesternstaff, coaching the Wildcats’ of-fensive line. In 2000, Northwest-ern was a co-Big Ten champion

with one of the country’s best of-fenses.

It took only two years in theBig Ten before Kromer madethe move to the NFL, and that’swhen he met Marc Trestman.

It also was a great way to net-work. Jon Gruden hired Kromerto join his Raiders staff, whereKromer said he got a “doctor-ate in football” from the current“Monday Night Football” ana-lyst, and he joined Bill Callahanand Trestman on Oakland’s of-fense.

Kromer then went withGruden to Tampa Bay, but he al-ways wanted to coach with some-one he met at Miami and hadbecome good friends with, SeanPayton, the Redhawks’ offensivecoordinator from 1994 to 95.

The highlight on Kromer’s ré-sumé before coming to Chicagowas the success of the Saints’

offense, including a Super Bowltitle after the 2009 season, butit’s the six games he was interimhead coach in 2012 that also standout.

“It was a weird situation be-cause no team has never reallybeen in a situation like that,” saidJermon Bush-rod, Kromer’sleft tackle in bothNew Orleans andChicago. “I thinkhe did a great jobfilling in. He un-derstood his taskthat he was onlygoing to be in thatposition for sixweeks, but I thinkhe made the bestout of it.”

Bushrod appeared in onlythree games in his first two NFLseasons before Kromer came toNew Orleans. An injury thrustBushrod into a prominent roleprotecting Drew Brees’ blindside. After starting all but twogames over the next four sea-sons, Bushrod was able to cashin on a lucrative contract withthe Bears.

He credits some of his careersuccess to the tutelage he has re-ceived from Kromer, now in twodifferent stops. And Kromer’s

presence in Chicago helpedBushrod’s free-agent selection ofthe Bears.

“His techniques and every-thing that he’s preached hasbeen pretty beneficial to me,”Bushrod said. “He’s been prettypatient with me over the years.I fight to grow as much as I can,and to work on things, and he’sbeen very understanding withthat and he’s helped me out a lotalong the way.”

Bushrod has seen the develop-ment of Kromer, from a pure O-line coach to someone who nowhas a good grasp of NFL offenses.

“He’s had more on his plate,he’s not just dealing with the of-fensive line. He’s working morewith the offense, working morewith the quarterbacks,” Bushrodsaid. “Just trying to help every-one out that’s around him, try-ing to bring along the youngerguys, continuing to help out usolder guys that have been in thisleague for a little while. It’s beengreat, the things he’s been ableto bring.”

“I’ve seen him, he’s excelledat being a position coach,” Bush-rod said. “He’s continuing to doa great job as offensive coordi-nator over the last couple years.The next step is for him to get thehead coaching job.”

Marshall provides sparks before injuryBy ARTHUR ARKUSH

[email protected]

CHICAGO – The talk all week wasabout getting Matt Forte involved.

But a player whose consistent play-making the unit has missed arguablyas much as Forte’s consistent usage al-most singlehandedly – literally – pro-vided one of the Bears’ few offensivesparks in their 41-28 loss to the DallasCowboys on Thursday.

It wasn’t quite as acrobatic as hisone-handed touchdown in San Fran-cisco, but Brandon Marshall, with hisleft arm being held by Cowboys safetyJ.J. Wilcox, tapped a Jay Cutler throwdown the seam to himself with hisright arm to secure a 42-yard gain, theBears’ longest gain in three games.

Later in the drive, after the Bearson fourth-and-7 at the Dallas 30 es-chewed bringing on Jay Feely to trya 47-yard field goal, Marshall came upbig once more. High-pointing a Cutlerpass over the middle, Marshall cor-ralled a 15-yard Cutler pass to movethe chains.

Marshall’s clutch grab came at asignifcant cost.

He received a knee to the backfrom Cowboys safety Barry Church,keeping him on the field for severalminutes before Marshall immediatelyheaded to the locker room with whatwas announced as an injury to hisribs. He was quickly transported toNorthwestern Memorial Hospital.

After signing a three-year, $30 mil-lion extension in May, Marshall hasfought through ankle injuries and in-consistency amid the least productivecampaign (61-721-8) since his rookieyear in 2006.

Conte’s goal line struggles: ChrisConte, who missed most of the Week13 loss in Detroit after suffering an eyeinjury, was on the losing end at hisown goal line on a pair of touchdownsby Cowboys No. 3 receiver Cole Bea-sley.

Conte was barreled over by Beas-

ley from around the 5-yard line with13 seconds left before halftime to giveDallas a 14-7 advantage. It was thesecond time in the half Conte and theBears appeared to lose track of Beas-ley in the red zone, the other on third-and-goal on the Cowboys’ first touch-down drive.

Then, on Dallas’ opening posses-sion of the second half, after a Fortefumble, Conte mistimed his jump on abroken play from Tony Romo to Beas-ley, resulting in a 24-yard touchdownand 21-7 Dallas lead.

MORRIS – Right from thestart Thursday night, the Mor-ris wrestling team was aggres-sive.

The match started withthe 145-pound weight class,and Redskins wrestler ShainHennessy wasted no time ingetting things going. Actually,he wasted all of 16 seconds topin Rochelle’s Isaiah Ramosand put Morris ahead, 6-0. TheRedskins never looked back enroute to a 54-24 Northern Illi-nois Big 12 crossover victory.

“Shain did a great job of get-ting us going,” Morris coachJon Lanning said. “He’s 3-0now, and he has looked reallygood so far.”

Morris’ A.J. Vota won the152-pound match by forfeit,then Cody Baldridge lost, 5-2,by Rochelle’s Alex Harveyto make the score, 12-3. RyanOlsen then dominated the171-pound match for Morris,scoring a takedown and threenear-fall points almost imme-diately against Javier Aguirre.Olsen then allowed Aguirreto escape and took him down

again before finally record-ing the fall at the 1:50 mark tohand Morris an 18-3 lead. RyanKowalczyk then won by forfeitat 182 for Morris before VictorToussaint matched Hennesey’sfeat with a 16-second win byfall over James Rosenberg toput the Redkins comfortably

ahead, 30-3.“We had a lot of quick falls

tonight,” Lanning said. “Thatwas nice to see. Ryan Olsenwas very aggressive tonightin his match. All of our kidswere, really. The guys came outready and were really attack-ing. That’s the kind of team we

want to have.“I would rather be on the

attack and be proactive in amatch than wait and react towhat the other guy is doing.Some teams like to react, butI prefer to take a shot and losethan sit back and wait.”

After Toussaint’s win at195, Rochelle’s Darryl Williamspinned Charlie Clark in 1:03 topull Rochelle to within 30-9. An-drew Faught got those pointsright back for Morris in the285-pound bout, taking 37 sec-onds to pin Will Lawhorn.

In the 106-pound match,Rochelle’s Justin Hernandezpinned Michael Milton in 2:18to make it, 36-15, before Morris’Dillon Thompson at 113 andJohn Le at 120 each won by for-feit for a 48-15 advantage.

In what turned out to bethe most competitive matchof the night, Morris fresh-man Marques Kjellesvik lostto Rochelle’s Ralfy Mancinas,9-5. Mancinas took a 4-0 lead,but Kjellesvik escaped andtook him down to make it 4-3.The third period started withKjellesvik in the down position,trailing 5-3. He escaped with1:10 left in the match to make

it, 5-4, but Mancinas took himdown with 15 seconds left. Withseven seconds left, Kjellesvikescaped again to make it 7-5and needed a takedown to tieit. Mancinas recorded the take-down at the buzzer to make thefinal tally.

“Marques did a real nicejob,” Lanning said. “He’s only afreshman, and he hadn’t wres-tled before he came to our campover the summer. He’s stilllearning his way around themat, but he’s a very promisingwrestler.”

Rochelle’s Jake Meyersfollowed with a pin of EthanElleson in 3:45 in the 132-poundmatch to make it 48-24 beforeMorris’ Dominic Byerly closedthe night with a pin of DustinKanas in 3:58 at 138.

“Dominic wrestled a realgood match,” Lanning said.“Overall, this was a good nightfor us. Coach (Cal) Ferry does anice job with his kids. He’s anIllinois alum like me, so it’s funto get together. Like us, theyhave a young team, so this wasa good matchup for us this ear-ly in the season.”

WRESTLING: PLAINFIELD CENTRAL 38, PLAINFIELD NORTH 36

By TIM TIERNEYShaw Media Correspondent

PLAINFIELD –A string offour successive pins gave thePlainfield North wrestlingteam a commanding 33-16 leadover Plainfield Central, butthe Tigers could not overcomeinjury and illness Thursdaynight.

Central claimed five match-es by forfeit – including the fi-nal two at 138 and 145 – to edgeNorth, 38-36, in the teams’Southwest Prairie Conference

opener at Central.It would have been a dif-

ferent outcome if North had ahealthier lineup. The Tigerswon seven of the nine matchesthey wrestled. North also hadto forfeit matches at 152, 182and 120.

“I think everybody up anddown the lineup and the staffis frustrated,’’ North coachJeff Kastel said. “It’s unfortu-nate we’ve got guys sick andinjured.

“It’s been a rough start, butthe guys are looking sharp.They’re improving everymatch and they’re focused onwinning.’’

North’s stretch of fourstraight pins came from LeoSantos (1:55 at 220), Nick Wolf(1:10 at 285), Marcus Povlick(1:56 at 106) and Tyler Myers(5:43 at 113).

Wolf, 25-4 as a junior last

year, raised his record thisseason to 8-0 with Thursday’swin.

“It’s nice to get the matcheswith the guys I know,’’ Wolf

said. “We had a couple guysout sick and some injuries.Hopefully, when it comesdown to it later in the season,we’ll have all our guys backand healthy and ready to go.’’

Povlick, 18-6 a year ago,was ready to go against Cen-tral.

“I was just trying to takehim down at first and thenscore some bonus points withthe pin,’’ Povlick said. “I got itright at the end of the period.’’

“He’s a born natural ath-lete, and he’s also put the timein,’’ Kastel said of Povlick.

Other North winners wereMatt Hennessey (160), TimmyDonnahue (170) and Luke Smi-ley (126). Hennessey, a fresh-man, earned a fall in 1:57.

After Smiley recorded a 7-2decision at 126, Central’s JohnNudera scored a 17-7 victoryat 132. That cut North’s lead to

36-26 before the back-to-backforfeits by the Tigers endedthe match.

“John stepped in and got usthe win that ultimately mat-tered,’’ Central coach RyanWest said. “John doesn’t al-ways start for us. He did agreat job tonight.’’

Central’s Akwasi Aikinswas a 17-5 winner at 195. JaredEllingwood (138) and ClaytonLedbetter (145) got the forfeitwins for Central at the end.Ledbetter took second at 138last week at the BarringtonTournament.

“Those three guys havereally stepped up as individu-als,’’ West said. “They’re defi-nitely three of the key compo-nents to our team.

“We’ve got a lot of guyswrestling on the varsity levelfor the first time, but we’ve gotsome good senior leadership.’’

SPORTS BRIEFSCubs change plansfor possible tax creditCHICAGO – The Commission

on Chicago Landmarks willconsider several changesThursday the Cubs made totheir Wrigley Field renovationplan in exchange for possiblefederal tax credit worth up to$75 million.The deal with the National

Park Service would alter thedimensions and placementof video boards and othersigns in order to not en-croach on the historic manualcenter-field scoreboard andthe ballpark’s view of theneighborhood, the ChicagoSun-Times reported.Cubs spokesman Julian

Green said the deal with parkservice would put the team ontrack to receive tax credits.It could earn Wrigley a spoton the National Register ofHistoric Places.The changes to the renova-

tion plan include eliminating a650-foot sign in left field andswapping locations of a videoboard and a 650-foot sign inright field.The right-field video board

would 200 feet smaller –2,200 square feet – and theleft-field video board wouldmove 30 feet closer to thecenter-field scoreboard.

from both parties warned theNational Football League onThursday to get rid of a four-decade-old TV “blackout” ruleor risk congressional action torestrict the league’s lucrativeantitrust exemption, whichallows NFL teams to negotiateradio and television broadcastrights together.The blackout rule, which

bars home games from beingtelevised in a local market ifthey have not sold out, is un-fair to fans who have helpedthe league reap billions ofdollars in revenue from broad-cast rights to games that areamong the most-watchedprograms on TV, lawmakerssaid.

spreading the word about LVADs – left ventricularassist device – as her husband Roy Sammans has totreat his heart disease. People with this device haveno pulse because the device pumps the blood throughtheir body. However, if cardiopulmonary resuscita-tion is performed on such a patient, the device maybecome dislodged. Thanks to Janice’s efforts, morepeople are now familiar with a less-familiar medicalmechanical device.

Thumbs-down: To governmental agencies passingthe buck off on one another. Two instances of thisoccurred this week. In Plainfield, local officials com-plained they were not solely responsible for takingaction against an area farmer who reportedly allowedpeople to dump garbage on his property near the DesPlaines River. They pointed the finger at regional andstate authorities for not having stepped up earlier.Then in Joliet, local officials redirected criticismover a lack of shelter at a temporary railway platformtoward railroad authorities.

They volleyed responsibility back to local offi-cials, saying a city contractor built the platform.Wouldn’t it be nice if everyone worked together to getsomething done instead of pushing off blame on oneanother?

Thumbs-up: to Stone City VFW Post 2199 in Jolietfor its Hall of Honor. Anybody who visits can see thephotos of veterans of past conflicts – some who’vedied and some who are still alive – and remember thesacrifices they made.

The Hall of Honor is not only meant to recognizeveterans, but to start a discussion about military life.Veterans deserved to be remembered every day, notjust a few days a year set aside to honor those whoserved.

Thumbs-down: to Gretchen Fritz for waiting untilSunday to send in her letter of resignation to thePlainfield Library Board. The board accepted theresignation at a special meeting Thursday, whichgives a little time for potential candidates to circulatepetitions before a Dec. 22 deadline to run for the seatbeing vacated by Fritz. But not enough time. Fritzresigned because she was elected Nov. 4 to the countyboard. She supposedly waited nearly four weeks untilresults from her race, which were obvious Nov. 4,became official.

All votes were counted by Nov. 18 and the final,super-official canvass was Nov. 25. Then Fritz waitedanother five days to resign.

Bold adventure needed to attracta new generation to science

NASA once deliveredmanned space mission mile-stones routinely.

Alan Shepard became thefirst American in space in1961. John Glenn became thefirst U.S. astronaut to orbitthe Earth the next year. NeilArmstrong became the firstman to set foot on the moon in1969, and the first space shuttlelaunched in 1981.

But in the past 33 years,NASA hasn’t launched amanned spacecraft with a newdesign. Efforts to change thatwill make a major advance ifFriday’s planned launch of anunmanned Orion crew vehi-cle is successful. (Thursday’slaunch was scrubbed).

If weather and systems coop-erate, NASA will take its firststep toward putting humansaboard Orion in 2021 and al-lowing U.S. exploration beyond

low-earth orbit.North Alabama should have

an especially keen interest inthe mission. The launch willuse a Delta IV Heavy rocket as-sembled at the United LaunchAlliance plant in Decatur.Marshall Space Flight Centerin Huntsville oversaw devel-opment of propulsion elementsin Orion’s emergency launchabort system, an innovationthat would activate in an emer-gency during launch or initialascent to propel the Orion crewto safety. Marshall also had arole in Orion testing.

There are many interestingfacets to the mission, whichwill last only 4! hours buteventually could lead to amanned Mars mission in the2030s.

Engineers want to see howwell Orion’s parachutes per-form to slow the craft because

it will return to Earth at an in-tentionally high speed to mimicthat on a return from Mars.

Additionally, the speed willincrease temperatures on re-en-try into earth’s atmosphere to4,000 degrees and test Orion’sheat shield protection.

A large portion of the mis-sion will be spent intentionallyin the Van Allen Belts to letsensors test the craft’s radia-tion shielding.

Orion’s computers, whichare 400 times faster than thespace shuttle’s, and the craft’sability to jettison parts as theybecome unneeded also will beunder scrutiny.

The United States shouldpursue space exploration withthe goal of a Mars mission.

The U.S. needs a bold adven-ture to attract a new generationto science.

By DAWN AULETShaw Media Correspondent

JOLIET – For the past 38years, Billie LimacherBicentennial Park in

Joliet has hosted the Festivalof the Gnomes. And, for thepast 28 years or so, Jan No-votny of Joliet of has takenpart in the production.

“And my husband is justa year behind me,” Novot-ny said. “Our kids and ourgrandkids have all been init. It is very much a familytradition and I think that themagic is that it is very closeto the same every year.”

This year the 80-minutelong Festival of Gnomes is at1 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. Satur-day. Since the show alwayssells out, a show has beenadded at 1 p.m. Sunday.

Novotny is one of three di-rectors this year, along withher daughter Lori Carmineof Joliet and Reg McReynoldsof Joliet. Unfortunately thisyear, one person presentsince the beginning will benoticeably absent.

“A lady known to manyas Grandma Gnome will betaking a holiday this year tobe with family,” a writtenrelease stated.

Grandma Gnome is BillieLimacher of Joliet, who,along with Georgiann Good-son (deceased), began theshow in 1976. However, thefestival must still be closeto Limacher’s heart becauseNovotny said, “She sends herlove to everyone.”

With such a rich andlong-standing history withthe festival, Novotny knowswhat goes into the show andwhat drives Joliet-area resi-dents to come back annually.

For many families,Novotny said, it’s a holidaytradition.

“I think for most people,it’s like the kick off to theChristmas season,” Novotnysaid. “It is this festive time

and it’s so many people comeand say, ‘Oh my motherbrought me when I was achild and now I am bringingthe children.’ ”

Certainly, no one couldhave predicted the Festivalof Gnomes’ longevity, Novot-ny said, although she wouldnot be surprised if Limacherand Goodson had suspectedit.

“Maybe they knew themagic,” Novotny said.

Perhaps the most amazingcomponent of the show isthat – even after 38 years – itdoesn’t show signs of slowingdown, Novotny said. Thisyear, the Festival of Gnomescast is 50 people strong.And this year, the set-up isslightly different, with anunderstudy cast for some ofthe main roles, she added.

“You can go to all threeshows and it will be some-thing different every time,”Novotny said.

But the cherished ele-ments audiences expect eachyear will not change.

“[Audience members]know they are going to seethe Poor Woodsman, theyknow they are going to seethe Snotgurgle, they knowthey are going to see theGnome from Nome and hisfriend the sea otter,” Novot-ny said.

Also consistent are theannual traditions that makeFestival of Gnomes an expe-rience to live, rather thanjust a show to watch.

For instance, first-timegnome attendees maypurchase a gnome hat – redfor boys and green for girls

– that they may bring backeach year, said DeannaOpsahl, office assistant. Forevery subsequent year inattendance, one of the ladygnomes will sew a tassel onthe gnome cap for free.

The tassels becomemore special as the yearsprogress. For an attendee’s10th anniversary show, the

tassel is a dried moonbeam(a black tassel) with a driedstar (rhinestone) attached toit, Opsahl said. The tassel issilver for the 20th anniversa-ry and gold for the 30th, sheadded.

“Next year, it will be 20years for me,” Opsahl said.

Novotny said she hadn’tkept up with all the greentassels for her cap.

“But I sure have my goldtassel and my moonbeamtassel,” Novotny said. “My11-year-old grandson said,‘Grandma, I have to get my10-year tassel.’ ”

Tickets are $5 for allages and reservations arerecommended, the releasesaid. After curtain, kids andadults can meet the gnomeson stage and visit the gnomegift shop (with 25-cent trea-sures) and the cookie factory.It costs just one dollar for aplate full of cookies and 50cents for a cup of hot cocoa,according to the release.

Attendees also can buyraffle tickets (50 cents each,or three for $1) for one home-made girl gnome doll and onehomemade boy gnome doll,the news release said.

CROSSWORD SUDOKU BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

CELEBRITY CIPHER

PUZZLES

L.M. Boyd, a syndicated columnist,said, “There are 350 varieties of shark,not counting loan and pool.”

In this deal, how would you countto bring home four hearts after Westleads the club queen?

When South shows four-plushearts, North adds two points for hissingleton, which makes his hand worth17 support points. That is a maximumfor a three-heart raise. (If you countlosers, which I prefer, that North handhas only five: two spades, one heart,one diamond and one club. That makeshis hand strong enough for a gameraise. But it is close with only 15 high-card points.)

When the dummy comes down,pause, relax, and start by countinglosers. Here, you have five: twospades, one diamond and two clubs.Then move to winners. There are sixtop tricks: one spade, four hearts andone club. A seventh can come fromdiamonds. But to get up to 10, youmust take seven trump tricks, not four.That means ruffing three clubs in thedummy. However, you must establishyour diamond trick first.

So, win trick one with your club aceand play your diamond to dummy’squeen. East will win with his ace andshift to a trump. What now?

You must be careful with yourentries for those club ruffs. Take thistrick with your heart ace, ruff a club inthe dummy, cash the spade ace anddiamond king, then crossruff in theminors.

You take one spade, two hearts,one diamond, one club, two diamondruffs in your hand and three club ruffson the board.

Yes, an initial trump lead defeatsthe contract. But that is tough to find.

Find the right lineby counting tricks

Dear Doctor K: Whyare my legs and anklesswollen? What can I doabout it?

Dear Reader: In Thurs-day’s column, I answeredthe first part of yourquestion.

I explained the dif-ferent causes of leg andankle swelling (edema)– some not serious, andothers very serious.

Today, I’ll explainwhat your doctor needs todo to diagnose the causeof the edema, and whatyou and your doctor cando to reduce the swelling.

Among the seriouscauses of leg and ankleswelling are diseases ofthe heart, lungs, liver,kidney and thyroid. Ifyour symptoms and phys-ical examination suggestthe possibility of any ofthese conditions, yourdoctor will order variousdiagnostic tests.

• Blood tests can helpdiagnose heart failure,severe lung disease, kid-ney disease, low proteinlevels in the blood andunderactive thyroid -- allcauses of leg and ankleswelling.

• Urine tests can helpdiagnose kidney disease.

• A chest X-ray canhelp diagnose both heartdisease and lung disease.

• An electrocardio-gram (EKG or ECG) canalso help diagnose heart,lung and kidney disease.

The treatments forleg and ankle swellingdepend on the cause. Formost causes, you can takeseveral steps that willhelp greatly:

• Reduce your saltintake. Extra salt in yourdiet tends to hold waterinside your body. Partic-ularly if you are diag-nosed with heart, lung orkidney disease, avoidingsalt is very important-- and entirely in yourcontrol.

• Avoid drinking toomuch fluid. Normally it’shealthy for men to drink13 cups of water-contain-ing beverages per day,and women 9 cups. (Thatis, it’s healthy depending

on what the “water-con-taining beverage” is.)However, if you have legand ankle swelling, cutback from that number.But don’t forget aboutreducing salt: It is moreimportant in reducingswelling than cuttingback on fluid.

• Elevate your legs.Almost regardless ofwhat’s causing yourleg and ankle swelling,elevating your legs willhelp because it offsets thedownward tug of gravity.That tug is keeping waterin the blood and in thespace between your cellsfrom returning to yourheart. (But if you areshort of breath at rest,and elevating your legsmakes that worse, don’televate them -- and talk toyour doctor.)

• If you’re pregnant,avoid lying on yourback, as that causes thebaby and uterus to pressdown on the veins fromyour legs, which makesit harder for water inthe legs to return to theheart.

• Compression stock-ings can help reduce legand ankle swelling, par-ticularly if your swellingis caused by disease ofthe veins in your legs.

• Diuretic pills (“waterpills”) help the kidneyseliminate extra water.

No matter the cause,protect any area affectedby edema from pressure,injury and extreme tem-peratures.

The skin over swol-len legs becomes morefragile over time. Cuts,scrapes and burns inareas that have edematake much longer to healand are more likely to getinfected.

Pearls Before Swine

Dear Abby: My husbandand I divorced because ofanother woman. I took ithard, but after a year or so, Iwas OK.

Fast forward to 2013: Heshows up on my doorstep,needing food and shelter, soI took him in (he’s still thefather of my children). NowI can’t get rid of him!

He’s trying to show mehe’s changed. If I didn’tknow him, I’d think hewasn’t the same man at all. Ineed to know if this is an OKsituation for me to be in, be-cause well-meaning friendsand family tell me he won’tchange; he’ll leave again. (Isay, “As long as he abides bythe terms of the divorce, sowhat!”)

I don’t care if he sees oth-er people; he’s my EX. As faras I’m concerned, he’s justrenting a room in my house.But I need to know – am Ihurting the kids by lettinghim stay? He seems to getalong better with them nowthan he ever did, and I’d berenting that room to some-one else if it wasn’t him. Asfar as I’m concerned, betterthe devil you know than theone you don’t.

Am I doing the rightthing? And if so, how do I getwell-meaning people to stoplecturing me? – Landlady inCalifornia

Dear Landlady: I can’t seehow your ex living in thehouse would hurt the chil-dren – unless he suddenlydisappears from their livesagain. His presence there,even as “only a renter,” maylessen your chances of find-ing a serious romance again,because few if any menwelcome courting a womanunder these circumstances.

However, if you arehappy with things just asthey are, then when theunwelcome lectures start,all you have to do is tell thewell-meaning lecturers thatyou know what you’re doing

and to please pipe down. Thearrangement you have withyour ex may work better forboth of you than the mar-riage did because it appearshe is always on his bestbehavior.

Dear Abby: I’m pregnantwith my first baby. I useFacebook to update my fam-ily in another country aboutmy pregnancy and the littlemilestones that have hap-pened. But when I do, mycousin “Rita” takes it uponherself to turn every statusI post into something abouther and her daughter. I feellike she’s trying to one-upme or divert attention awayfrom my child. We comefrom a big, tight-knit familyand until now, her daughterwas the baby of the family.

Rita has been doing thisfor months now, and I’mstarting to get annoyed.How can I tell her politelyto please stop stealing mythunder and turning every-thing into something abouther? – Annoyed in the West

Dear Annoyed: Whethershe’s doing it consciouslyor not, it does appear thatCousin Rita is competitivewith you. It would be inter-esting to know if she hasalways been this way.

You can’t stop her fromcompeting, but you candevelop a sense of humorwhere she’s concerned. Herbids for attention are reallyrather sad, and once yourbaby arrives, he or she willbe the baby of the family –until Rita becomes pregnantagain, that is. (I’m temptedto start the countdown now.)
