The teams began playingbeanbags at noon on Sundayat Plainfield Fest.
Although the festivaltechnically closed at 6 p.m.Sunday, Rob Epley, Festivalchairman, said the playerswould be throwing well after6 p.m.
“With this many teams,they’ll be playing all the wayto 7 tonight,” he said.
This year, 64 teams signedup and were able to play inthe Midwest Bags Tourna-ment. Additional teams wereon a waiting list and did notget to compete this year.
“We’ve been told it’s thefourth biggest in the U.S.,”Epley said of the tourna-ment.
The number of teams thatsigned up for the bags tour-nament is not the only placewhere the Plainfield Festthrived this year. Epley saidmore than 70 vendors partic-ipated in the fest. Proceedsfrom all the festival fees andsales go to the Plainfield Riv-erfront Foundation, a non-profit organization whosegoal is to rebuild the areaonce known as Electric Park.
Because the festival isheld on Main Street, it is anatural boon to the localbusinesses. And this yearwas especially so as Epleysaid he estimated 15,000 at-tended the fest, way above
the anticipated 10,000 to12,000 people.
“We’ve had record crowdsthis year; it’s unbelievable,”Epley said.
C a t h y D e A v i l a o w n sCathy’s Sweet Creations, abakery that has been in itsMain Street site for a decade.She said this year the festi-val brought a lot of business.
“We’ve been absolutelyswamped,” she said. “Westayed open Friday night un-til 9 p.m.
“We had trouble closingthe doors because it was so
crowded.”On Saturday night, Ep-
ley said the entertainmentarea was at capacity whencover band ARRA played tocrowds. He thought the li-quor sales alone on Saturdaynight exceeded $40,000.
Down the street fromDeAvila, shop owner Cas-sie Vaughn, who owns Hop-scotch and Vine, combinedshop What’s New and Sim-ply Saucy and newly opened3 Chics Boutique said thecrowds have been great.
“It’s great exposure for
d o w n t o w n b u s i n e s s e s , ”Vaughn said.
All in all, Epley said hethought the festival thisweekend would raise $100,000for the foundation.

JOLIET – Joe Potts of Chan-nahon has scratches six feethigh on the inside of his frontdoor, the result of his energet-ic 125-pound Doberman pin-scher Rex.
The dog loves to go out forruns and is good at picking upon clues of when he’s about tobe taken out. Potts takes himto the dog park at HammelWoods in Shorewood a coupleof times a week, but now hehas a much closer venue.
The Rock Run Dog Park insouthwestern Joliet held itsopening Saturday morning,and just a couple of blockseast of Channahon, it’s a shortdrive for Potts. He brought4-year-old Rex to the opening.
“He needs a place to run,”Potts said, “and it’s close. If hedoesn’t get to run, you can’tlive with him. He’ll start run-ning through the house.”
Rex did seem to enjoy thepark and the dozens of otherdogs there for the day, runningand sniffing and happily pad-dling his large paws in everywater bowl he came across.
Felipe and Sharon Gutier-rez of Joliet were on the otherside of the park in the fenced-
in run for smaller dogs. Their9-year-old bichon poodle mix,
Yahtzee, spent most of her timesocializing with the other dogs.
“She absolutely loves it,”Sharon said of Yahtzee’s takeon the new dog park. “The one

Dogs getting bigger bang for their bark in Forest Preserve DistrictBy LAUREN LEONE–[email protected]
When the Forest PreserveDistrict of Will County openedits first dog park at HammelWoods in Shorewood back in2002, no one really knew whatto expect.
“We developed it on sortof a trial basis because at thattime there weren’t too manydog parks. There wasn’t a lot ofinformation out there on howto design one, what’s the bestkind and all those details,”said Ralph Schultz, directorof planning and operations forthe district. “We kind of didit on a shoestring budget. Wedidn’t really know what wewere getting ourselves into.”
District officials started outwith an open field in HammelWoods, and from there, theyput in a parking lot, fencing,a latrine and shelter, he said.
Soon after the opening, offi-cials learned quickly: Big dogsand little dogs don’t mix. So,the district’s second dog park,which opened three years lat-er at Whalon Lake in Naper-ville, was redesigned so that ithad two separate fenced areasto keep small and large dogsseparated.
“We did this for obviousreasons,” he said.
Because of lessons learnedearly on, the dogs of WillCounty are getting an evenbigger bang for their bark.
The district’s newest dog
parks – Whalon Lake in Na-perville, Messenger Marsh inHomer Glen, Forked CreekPreserve in Wilmington andRock Run in Joliet – all havethree separate fenced areas.One is for large dogs, anoth-er for small dogs and a thirdsection is left alone from timeto time so that the grassy turfcan essentially rest and re-store itself from heavy use,Schultz said.
The grand opening of theRock Run Dog Park on Satur-day marks the fifth of its kindin Will County – and it’s allfor man’s best friend, Schultzsaid.
“I think your dog becomesan extension of your family. Ithink people see that. That’s
something we’ve been able toprovide,” Schultz said. “Ouroff-leash dog park areas givepet owners an opportunity fortheir pet to socialize and alsofor them to socialize. It helpsthem build on that common-ality.”
The district’s dog parkshave proven to be popularamong Will County residentsover the years. The number ofdog park permits have grownfrom a few hundred whenHammel Woods’ dog park firstopened in 2002 to the 2,350 per-mits issued in 2013 for the dis-trict’s four dog parks, accord-ing to information providedby the district.
A sixth dog park is alreadyin the planning stages. It will
be located on the east side ofWill County in the Plum Val-ley Preserve at Route 394 andExchange Road, Schultz said.
The district recently ap-plied for a state grant to helppay for the new park, he said.
Policies and permits
n To ensure safety of all pets thatuse the park, pet owners must pro-vide a current rabies tab numberand expiration date for each dog.n A permit is required to enter thepremises and must be worn at alltimes while visiting the park.n For permit prices, types andrequirements, visit the ForestPreserve District of Will County’swebsite at www.reconnectwith-nature.org/preserves-trails/dog-parks.

The Folkers Hotel
FRANKFORT – Located on the
southeast corner of Kansas and
Hickory Streets, the Folkers Hotel
was owned and operated for many
years by Johnson Folkers and
eventually his three sons, William,
Frank, and Peter.
The partnership formed by these
three brothers carried on numer-
ous businesses begun by Johnson
that were important to the growth
of the community of Frankfort,
including livery stable, a slaughter
house and contracting the construc-
tion for the E.J.E. railroad tracks
and locating the first telephone
exchange on the second floor of the
hotel.
The then and now pictures show
Kansas Street looking east from
Hickory Street. Folkers Hotel is the
two-story building on the right in
both photographs. Further down
the block on the right, the two-story
brick building was home to a butch-
er shop and the Exchange Bank. On
the north side of the street, visible
in the then photograph, the old post
office, drug and grocery store build-
ings are visible.

Armymedic becomesMorris civil servantBy DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND
MORRIS – When it comesto her desire to help people inneed, Carissa Smith, 25, is aball of fire.
On June 7, Smith graduatedfrom the fire academy offeredby the Morris Fire Protection& Ambulance District, makingher Morris’ first African-Amer-ican firefighter. Smith has nowentered a probation period,which she said will last onemonth.
“I’ve learned the basics,”Smith said. “Now I’ll learn theMorris way of fighting fires.”
Smith said her No. 1 goal inlife always has been to be a civilservant, and becoming a fire-fighter was just one piece of ac-complishing that mission. Shejoined the U.S. Army in 2011,where she served as an Armymedic.
“Carissa has a backgroundin the military so she was ex-perienced,” Morris Fire Protec-tion & Ambulance Chief Trac-ey Steffes said. “She was a greatcandidate.”
When she came home toMorris in April 2012, Smithwanted to use her EMT licenseto help civilians, too. So Smithwent to work for a private am-bulance company and as anemergency department techni-cian for Adventist La GrangeMemorial Hospital, Smith said.
Yet Smith, also a singlemother of Zachary, 15 months,felt she was not using her tal-ents to the fullest.
“I was mostly taking the el-derly to doctors appointments,”Smith said. “I didn’t get the 911calls. I wanted something moreenergetic and upbeat. A friendsuggested I become a firefight-er, so I thought, ‘Why not giveit a shot?’ ”
Smith said she applied inSeptember 2013. She under-went an interview, a physicalfitness test and a written exam.She then was accepted intothe fire academy. Instruction,Smith said, was held at firedepartments in various towns,including Morris, Coal City, El-wood and Braidwood.
You name it, Smith said, she
learned it: extinguishing fireswith different materials, ven-tilating fires, evacuating vic-tims, building materials, howto properly use ladders andgood customer service tech-niques. This last, Smith said, isextremely important.
“We work for the city. We’rehere for the people,” Smithsaid. “We want to have a goodreputation.”
Because most Morris fire-fighters are only part-time em-ployees, Smith said, her nextgoal is to become a police offi-cer in a different communityand then work both jobs simul-taneously. She sees herself inthose roles for a long time.
“I love helping people, andafter being in the Army so long,I know how to handle a weap-on,” Smith said. “So why notbecome a police officer, too?”
Smith has had a role mod-el in her grandmother, EstherHoliday, pastor at House of Glo-ry for All Nations, which meetsat the Quality Inn in Morris.
“She’s such a hard work-er,” Holiday said of her grand-daughter.
Holiday, Smith said, hasspent her life helping others.As a pastor, Holiday counsels
people from a Biblical perspec-tive. She has also ministered totroubled youth with their par-ents’ consent, a ministry Holi-day would like to expand.
“Yep, she’s just like me,”Holiday said. “Because that’sall I do [is help people].”
Smith feels compelled to goforth and do likewise.
“I’ve always had that re-spectful mentality toward peo-ple,” Smith said. “Sometimespeople need a little help everynow and then.”

Channahon-Minooka Rotary celebrates 10 years
The Rotary Club of Chan-nahon-Minooka is celebratingits 10th anniversary this year– a decade as a club and a de-cade of serving the communi-ty and the nation.
The club got its start withthe help of several Rotariansfrom neighboring clubs. MaryAnn Egger, of the Joliet Ro-tary Club at the time, whichwas Channahon-Minooka’ssponsoring club, was appoint-ed a special representativeto assist in getting it off theground. Egger has been therefrom day one.
“I am very proud of ev-erything that they have done
during the last 10 years, mak-ing a huge impact in the com-munity,” Egger said.
Terry Danek, a longtimeRotarian of the Morris Rota-ry Club, was Channahon-Mi-nooka’s first president. Whenhe first saw a new club wasforming, he came over to takea look.
“Here I am 10 years later,”he said.
“I think it’s a great club,”Danek said. “I helped to givethem a good foundation. Wehave had a lot of accomplish-ments, we have done a lot.”
The Channahon-Minookaclub has grown its projectsover the years, said currentclub president and Channa-hon Police Chief Jeff Wold.
Members work with Ro-tary International, helpingin efforts to eradicate polio
worldwide, assist in buildingsafe drinking water wells inthird-world countries andsponsor the Shelter Box pro-gram, which provides instantshelter and aid to displacedpeople during disasters.
Locally, Channahon-Mi-nooka Rotary has a schol-arship program for Minoo-ka High School seniors, abackpack program whichprovides healthy snacks forgrade-school kids in need totake home over the weekend,provides dictionaries to allthird-grade students, sharessponsorship of Special Needsday at the Three Rivers Fes-tival and has adopt-a-spot onFord Road.
Last year the club launchedan Interact Club at MinookaHigh School and has workedwith the teen members to buy
Christmas presents for lowincome families. A mentoringprogram at the high school ison the list of upcoming proj-ects, Wold said.
Those who started the club10 years ago were communityleaders with the experienceand the understanding of howto get things done, Wold said.
“They are all service-mind-ed community leaders in theirown occupation and generallynice people who want to helpRotary to succeed locally andglobally,” he said.
Wold is heading up aneffort to put a park benchin both communities withplaques that commemoratethe club’s 10th anniversary.
“It’s a way to give backto the communities and putsomething out there to makepeople aware of our organiza-
tion,” he said.“Being a part of Rotary is
an awesome experience, youmeet nice people and newfriends,” Wold said.
The club will celebrate itsmilestone with a picnic Sat-urday. All past and presentChannahon-Minooka Rotar-ians are welcome. ContactTina Zugel at 815-467-8882 forinformation and to RSVP.

One of the more frequent problems people relate to foot
specialists is deformed nails. Deformed nails can result from
an injury to the nail, in-growing corners of the nail, fungus in
the nail and many other conditions. Nail deformities can be
painful, they can make shoe fitting difficult, and they can cause
infections and irritations.
As with most health conditions, prevention is the key to good
foot and nail health. Simple things may be done to prevent
nail problems including: proper cutting of the nails (cut them
straight across), wearing well-fitted shoe gear, and proper foot
hygiene to prevent fungus and bacterial infections.
Regardless of how careful one may be, nail problems can still
develop. Treatment for these problems is based on the underlying
cause. Some conditions may require simple trimming of the
toenail(s), antibiotics, anti-fungal medications and possible
surgical intervention. Nail conditions can be very painful and
potentially dangerous to overall foot health. In most cases, they
are treated effectively with conservative care and pain can often
be alleviated the day of your visit. If you or anyone you know
suffers from this or any foot or ankle problem, please contact your
foot and ankle specialist at the Foot and Ankle Health Center.

Heel pain can occur for a variety of reasons and can
present with different symptoms. Most people complain
of pain when they first get out of bed and start to walk.
Heel pain can be present either on the bottom of the foot
or on the back of the heel. Often times, there is a bone
spur present in the area but the spur may not be the cause
of the heel pain.
Heel pain can be secondary to abnormal shoe pressure,
a biomechanical abnormality, injury, arthritis or other
conditions. Left untreated, heel pain can become
debilitating. People who suffer from severe heel pain often
find themselves adjusting their whole lifestyle to prevent
their heels from hurting.
Treatment of the majority of heel pain is available through
conservative means. Often times, the patient will be able
to experience at least some level of relief before leaving
the office. Our office utilizes medications, strappings,
custom made orthotics and other conservative treatment
modalities to attempt to provide relief.
If you or anyone you know suffers from this or any foot
or ankle problem, please contact your foot and ankle
specialist at the Foot and Ankle Health Center.

AN EXTRAORDINARY LIFE
‘He really saw them as his kids’Morris man coached thousands on and off the field
By DENISE M. BARAN–[email protected]
MORRIS – During thegraveside services forCharles “Chuck” Farinellaof Morris, eight of Chuck’s“sons” talked for three tofive unscripted minuteseach about how much Chuckmeant to them, said Chuck’sson, also named Chuck Fari-nella, of Woodridge.
These men weren’t hisbiological sons, Farinellasaid. They were Chuck’sformer students, just eight ofthousands Chuck impactedduring his more than 30 yearsof service at Proviso EastSchool in Maywood, whereChuck worked as a physicaleducation teacher, mentorand football and track coach.
One man had driven allnight from Maryland toattend the funeral, Farinellasaid. Another came in from
Georgia, missed the services,but made it to the cemetery,just because he wanted to payhis respects.
Chuck had taught andcoached them in an era ofrace riots, Farinella said,which caused some of theteachers to leave. Chuck wasnot one of them
“My dad wasa father figureto them. He re-ally saw themas his kids,”Farinella said.“They camefrom all walksof life and veryeasily couldhave gotteninto drugs or gangs, but myfather had a unique abilityto motivate them. He’d makenumerous phone calls to col-leges – with the kids sittingin his office – and say, ‘Yourinstitution will be better by
having this kid in it.’ ”According to information
compiled by Chuck’s family,a number of athletes underChuck’s mentoring went tothe Illinois High School Asso-ciation State Track meet eachyear and nearly 100 of themplaced. Noteworthy occasionswere winning the team statetitle in 1980, as well as thirdplace in 1976 and fourth in1975 and 1985.
Student athletes underChuck’s direction also wonnumerous conference titles.One former student, GregFoster, won state titles forthe 120 yard high hurdle andthe 330 yard low hurdle; healso won titles at the nationallevel. He went on to win med-als at the Olympics and theWorld Championships.
But for all the successesthat had their start withChuck’s guidance, Chuck’sfamily knew little of Chuck’s
own athletic career until theybegan pouring through hisscrapbooks after his July 7death at the age of 82.
They had known thatChuck, after graduatingfrom the now closed DePaulAcademy High School in1950, had attended KansasState University on a footballscholarship and started forthe Wildcats as a 210-poundoffensive tackle, Farinellasaid.
“We didn’t know he hadbeen the captain of the boxingteam and the track team inhigh school,” Farinella said.“He didn’t talk about himself.It was never about him.”
For Chuck, said Joe Fari-nella of Arizona, it was al-ways about his kids, the oneshe taught and coached, aswell as his own. In addition
to Farinella and Joe, Chuckand his wife of 57 years –Annette – raised Laurie Sobolof Morris and Carol Radek ofNaperville.
It wasn’t just his kids’participation in sports thatinterested Chuck, Joe said,but how they fared in theoverall game of life, long aftermany of them lost interestin athletics. That, Joe added,was the pride of his father’slife.
“He’d offer advice, but itwas homespun, commonsenseadvice and these kids took it.We all did,” Joe said. “Whenwe needed a firm hand, itwas there. When we neededa shoulder to cry on, it wasthere. That’s what matteredto him the most.”

she usually goes to doesn’thave a small dog area. She’svery friendly, so she loves so-cializing with the other dogs.”
The park is the Forest Pre-serve District of Will County’sfifth dog park and the firstin Joliet. It has three 2.5-acrefenced-in dog runs – one fordogs that weigh 35 pounds orless, one for larger dogs andone more for rotation purpos-es to keep the turf healthy.
The opening Saturdayhad a large attendance, withowners holding or standingwith their dogs and puppieswhile waiting in line to be the
first to check it out. Most ofthe pets were well-behaved.Some seemed anxious at allthe hoopla, and others lookedas if they had not yet had obe-dience training. The Chan-nahon Junior High Schoolmarching band played “TheStar-Spangled Banner,” andvarious dignitaries gave shortspeeches of welcome and cutthe ribbon.
“We’re very excited by thisturnout,” said Marcy DeMau-ro, executive Director of theForest Preserve District. “Ourdog parks are very popular.People want places to taketheir dogs and let them runoff-leash. It’s a good place forowners to socialize, too.”
The park was designed
with double runaway protec-tion. Dogs and owners first en-ter gates into a small cement-ed area, then they go througha second set of gates into theruns. If a dog happens to slipthrough one gate unescorted,the second gate keeps himsafely in the park.
The smaller dogs seemedto enjoy running their littlehearts out, and the big onesflew through the grass, chas-ing each other and catchingFrisbees.
“This park has been inthe making for four or fiveyears,” Forest PreserveBoard President DonaldGould said. “And it will ben-efit the people of Will Countyfor many years.”

Film, TV legend James Garner, reluctant hero, diesBy FRAZIER MOOREThe Associated Press
NEW YORK – Few actorscould register disbelief, exas-peration or annoyance withmore comic subtlety.
James Garner had a way ofwidening his eyes while thecorner of his mouth saggedever so slightly. Maybe hewould swallow once to furthermake his point.
This portrait of fleetingdisquiet could be understood,and identified with, by ev-ery member of the audience.Never mind Garner was tall,
brawny and, well, movie-starhandsome. The persona heperfected was never less thanmanly, good with his dukesand charming to the ladies,but his hero-ics were kepth u m a n - s c a l ethanks to hisgift for the com-ic turn. He re-mained one ofthe people.
He burst onthe scene withthis disarmingstyle in the 1950s TV Western“Maverick,” which led to a
stellar career in TV and filmssuch as “The Rockford Files”and his Oscar-nominated“Murphy’s Romance.”
The 86-year-old Garner,who was found dead of natu-ral causes at his Los Angeleshome on Saturday, was adeptat drama and action. But hewas best known for his low-key, wisecracking style, es-pecially on his hit TV series,“Maverick” and “The Rock-ford Files.”
His quick-witted avoid-ance of conflict offered a re-freshing new take on theAmerican hero, contrasting
with the blunt toughness ofJohn Wayne and the lacon-ic trigger-happiness of ClintEastwood.
There’s no better displayof Garner’s everyman majes-ty than the NBC series “TheRockford Files” (1974-80). Heplayed an L.A. private eye andwrongly jailed ex-con whoseemed to rarely get paid, oreven get thanks, for the cas-es he took, while helplesslygetting drawn into trouble tohelp someone who was nei-ther a client nor maybe evena friend. He lived in a trailerwith an answering machine
that, in the show’s openingtitles, always took a messagethat had nothing to do witha paying job, but more oftenwas a complaining call from acranky creditor.
Through it all, Jim Rock-ford, however down on hisluck, persevered hopefully.He wore the veneer of a cynic,but led with his heart. Puttingall that on screen was Gar-ner’s magic.
When Garner received theScreen Actors Guild’s lifetimeachievement award in 2005,he quipped, “I’m not at allsure how I got here.”

1Quinn, Rauner usejobs claims ascampaign weapons
CHAMPAIGN – Gov. Pat Quinnand Republican rival Bruce Raunerhave both sought to use thestate’s jobs situation as a politicalweapon.But their claims and the num-
bers behind them demonstratethat the picture isn’t nearly asclear as either Quinn or Raunersuggests.Many of those claims center on
one set of numbers in particular:Howmany people are employedin Illinois andwhat that saysabout the state’s economy.Rauner’s campaign has
repeatedly said that, under Quinn,Illinois has and is losing jobs.“Illinoisans are still suffering
after years of Pat Quinn’s hightax policies, and the state haslost thousands of jobs this yearalone,” spokesmanMike Schrimpfsaid Thursday.But Quinn’s campmaintains the
state has added jobs since Quinntook office in January 2009.“The bottom line, just as a
matter of fact, is that there aremore people working in Illinoistoday than there werewhenthe governor took office,” Quinncampaign spokeswoman BrookeAnderson said.The numbers say both claims
are accurate. But that doesn’t tellthe whole story.
2Quinn OKs cannabisuse for kids withepilepsy
CHICAGO –Minors withepilepsy would be allowed tousemedical marijuana under ameasure Gov. Pat Quinn signedSunday.Themeasure adds seizures to
the list of treatable conditionsin the state’s medical cannabisprogram and allows childrenwith seizures from epilepsy to
consume oil from themarijuanaplant with a parent’s consent.The original medical marijuana
law had allowed only Illinoisresidents 18 years and older touse the drug in a four-year pilotprogram.The legislation, which takes ef-
fect in January, had been pushedby families in Illinois with childrenthat experience hundreds ofseizures a day, said EpilepsyFoundation of Greater ChicagoPresident and CEO Kurt Florian.
3Quinn anti-violencespending didn’t pullbig votes
CHICAGO – An analysis showsthat Gov. Pat Quinn’s troubledanti-violence program, which crit-ics have called a “political slushfund,” didn’t do himmuch good in
his 2010 campaign.The Chicago Sun-Times, which
analyzed the numbers, reportedthat in Chicago neighborhoodswhere the Neighborhood Recov-ery Initiative’s $54million wasspent, voter turnout in 2010was2 percentage points higher thanit was in 2006, when former Gov.Rod Blagojevich ran for governor.That wasn’t much different thanthe 1.9 percentage point increasein voter turnout for the sameperiod in neighborhoods that didnot receive such funding.The differencewas a bit more
pronounced in the suburbs. Thepaper found that voter turnoutimproved in areas that got NRImoney by 3.8 percentage points,compared to a 1.8 percentagepoint increase in suburban areasthat didn’t get any NRI money.

Construction workers build a commercial complex Thursday in Springfield. The state jobless rate has dropped for four straight months andis at its lowest point since October 2008. Illinois has lagged the country as a whole in its recovery from recession, and the state’s unem-ployment rate has been among the worst in the country for months. Thursday’s report provides signs that Illinois may be starting to catchup. Construction companies added 3,500 jobs in June, an increase of 1.8 percent.

Helpful weather comingto Washington wildfiresWINTHROP,Wash. – Cooler
temperatures and lighter windsare forecast to descend onwildfire-strickenWashingtonstate, helping firefighters battleflames that have been growingunfettered for a week and havecovered hundreds of squaremiles.While Sunday’s weather has
slight improvements on the hottemperatures and gusty windsthat have fueled thewildfires, theforecast for Monday and Tuesdaycalls for lighter winds and tem-peratures, said Spokane-basedNational Weather Servicemeteo-rologist Greg Koch.“Overall, it looks like the

Bus becomes shower forhomeless in San FranciscoSAN FRANCISCO – A nonprofit
group is taking a novel approachto helping the homeless in SanFranciscowith a new bus thatallows them to take a shower.The former public transit bus
has been outfitted with two fullprivate bathrooms and offers hotshowers, clean toilets, shampoo,soap and towels free of charge.
The founder of the nonprofit LavaMaemobile shower bus said shewanted to return a sense of digni-ty to those living on the streets.“If you’re homeless, you’re
living on the streets and you’refilthy, you’re trying to improveyour circumstances, but youcan’t interview for a job, you can’tapply for housing and you getdisconnected from your senseof humanity,” Doniece Sandovalsaid. “So a shower just in of itselfis amazing for people.”LavaMae said the bus is mobile,
allowing it to reach homelesspeople scattered throughoutthe city. And having a facility onwheels eliminates the potentialfor rent hikes and evictions in acity with high real estate prices.

Scores dead in first majorground battle in Gaza
By KARIN LAUB andTIA GOLDENBERGThe Associated Press
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip –The first major ground battlein two weeks of Israel-Hamasfighting exacted a steep priceSunday: It killed 65 Palestin-ians and 13 Israeli soldiers andforced thousands of terrifiedPalestinian civilians to fleetheir neighborhood, report-edly used to launch rockets atIsrael and now devastated bythe fighting.
Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu saidthe offensive would continue“as long as necessary” to endattacks from Gaza on Israelicivilians.
But Hamas seems defiant,international cease-fire effortsare stalled, and internationalcriticism is becoming morevocal as the death toll amongPalestinian civilians rises.
U.N. chief Ban Ki-mooncalled Israel’s latest incursion“atrocious,” and said it mustdo far more to protect civil-ians.
In Israel, public opinionwill struggle to tolerate risingmilitary losses in an open-end-ed campaign. Already, Sun-day’s deaths marked the high-est number of soldiers killedon a single day since Israel’swar in Lebanon in 2006.
The ferocious battle inGaza City’s Shijaiyah neigh-borhood came on the third dayof Israel’s ground offensive,which had been preceded by a10-day air campaign.
In all, at least 432 Pales-tinians were killed and morethan 3,000 wounded in the pasttwo weeks. The overall deathtoll on the Israeli side roseto 20, including 18 soldiers,along with dozens of woundedtroops, during that period.
On Sunday evening,Hamas spokesman Mushiral-Masri in Gaza claimed hisgroup had captured an Israelisoldier. An announcement onGaza TV of the soldier’s cap-ture set off celebration in the
streets of Gaza City.But the claim could not im-
mediately be verified and theIsraeli military said it was in-vestigating the report. Hamashas made similar claimsof capturing Israelis in thepast that were not true. ForIsraelis, a captured soldierwould be a nightmare sce-nario. Hamas-allied militantsseized an Israeli soldier in across-border raid in 2006 andheld him captive in Gaza untilIsrael traded more than 1,000Palestinian prisoners, some ofwhom were involved in grislykillings, for his return in 2011.
Sunday’s battle beganwhen Israeli troops backed bytanks entered the densely pop-ulated Shijaiyah district justafter midnight Sunday. Theywere met by a “huge” level ofresistance by Hamas fighterswho fired anti-tank missiles,rocket-propelled grenadesand automatic weapons fromhouses and buildings, said Lt.Col. Peter Lerner, an armyspokesman.
Residents said they cameunder intense Israeli tank fire.
“The gate of hell hasopened, and shrapnel camethrough the windows,” Shi-jaiyah resident Jawad Hassa-nain said by phone. He and hisfamily fled to a nearby build-ing after their house shookfrom explosions.
After daybreak, the extent
of the devastation slowly be-came apparent: At least 65Palestinians had been killedand nearly 300 wounded, Gazahealth officials said, whiledozens of homes badly dam-aged or destroyed.
Casualties were rushedto Gaza’s central Shifa Hos-pital. Wailing parents, somecovered with blood or dustfrom debris, carried childrenpeppered by shrapnel, andthe emergency room quicklyoverflowed, forcing doctors totreat some patients in a hall-way.
D u r i n g a b r i e f R e dCross-brokered lull laterin the day, rescue workerstoured the neighborhood to re-trieve the dead, pulling bodiesfrom the rubble of homes.
In a last sweep of the areaon Sunday afternoon, rescueworkers heard the faint voiceof a woman in the rubble of ahouse.
In the incident witnessedby Associated Press journal-ists, rescue workers tried toorganize a bulldozer, but thesituation was deemed toodangerous and the crew left.Later, the rescue workers re-turned with a bulldozer, aftercoordination with Israeli forc-es through the Red Crescent,and pulled the three from therubble, said Said Hamam,a member of the rescue ser-vices.

Bodies fromdowned jet piled inboxcars in Ukraine
By YURAS KARMANAUand PETER LEONARDThe Associated Press
TOREZ, Ukraine – Pro-Mos-cow rebels piled nearly 200bodies from the downed Ma-laysian jetliner into four re-frigerated boxcars Sunday ineastern Ukraine, and cranesat the crash scene moved bigchunks of the Boeing 777,drawing condemnation fromWestern leaders that the reb-els were tampering with thesite.
The United States, mean-while, presented what itcalled “powerful” evidencethat the rebels shot down theplane with a Russian surface-to-air missile and training.Although other governmentshave stopped short of accus-ing Russia of actually causingthe crash, the U.S. was aheadof most in pointing blameon Moscow for the downingof Malaysia Airlines Flight17 that killed all 298 peopleaboard.
“Russia is supporting theseseparatists. Russia is armingthese separatists. Russia istraining these separatists,”Secretary of State John Kerrysaid on CNN’s “State of theUnion.”
Leaders of Britain, France,Germany and Australia spoketo Russian President Vladi-mir Putin by phone late Sun-day, urging him to use his in-fluence on the separatists toensure the victims could berepatriated and internationalinvestigators could have fullaccess to collect evidence.They said European foreignministers will be meeting inBrussels Tuesday to considerfurther sanctions on Russia.
More than three days afterthe jetliner crashed, interna-tional investigators still hadonly limited access to thesprawling fields where theplane fell.
U.N. Security Council dip-lomats tweeted Sunday thatthe council would vote Mon-day afternoon on a draft reso-lution co-sponsored by Austra-lia, France and Lithuania thatwould call for full access to the
crash site and an independentinvestigation.
“Investigators must haveimmediate full access to MH17crash site, & bodies treatedwith dignity,” British Ambas-sador Mark Lyall Grant tweet-ed.
British Prime MinisterDavid Cameron, in a blister-ing opinion piece for the Sun-day Times, said “the growingweight of evidence” suggeststhe rebels shot down the plane,and if that is so, “this is a directresult of Russia destabilizing asovereign state, violating itsterritorial integrity, backingthuggish militias and trainingand arming them.”
Australian Prime MinisterTony Abbott, whose countrylost 28 citizens in the tragedy,said Putin “said all the rightthings” during their telephoneconversation about ensuringan international investigationinto the disaster.
“I’m now going to try to en-sure that as far as Australiahumanly can, we insist uponthese things happening,” Ab-bott told Sydney Radio 2GBon Monday. “The site is beingtreated more like a gardenclean-up than a forensic inves-tigation, and this is completelyunacceptable.”
Russian officials haveblamed Ukraine’s governmentfor creating the situation andatmosphere in which the planewas downed, but has yet to di-rectly address the allegationsthat the separatists were re-sponsible or were operatingwith technical assistance fromMoscow.
The 42-square-mile crashsite, spread out on farmlandand villages, looked dramati-cally different Sunday, a dayafter armed rebels had stoodguard while dozens of bodieslay in the summer heat. Therebels were gone, and 192bodies were loaded into therefrigerated train cars in therebel-held town of Torez, ninemiles away.
The Ukrainian governmentsaid in a statement on its web-site that a second train withfour refrigerator cars had ar-rived at Torez station.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.THE FIRSTAMENDMENT
Enough highway gimmicks with CongressIt’s not quite fair to call this
a do-nothing Congress.
It’s really a do-the-bare-min-
imum-at-the-last-possible-mo-
ment-to-keep-the-country-from-
actually-collapsing Congress.
The handling of the Highway
Trust Fund provides the latest
master class in this debauched
style of government.
For six years, Congress has
been plugging holes in the fund
caused by declining gas-tax
revenue. During the past two
decades, the gas tax has been
frozen at 18.4 cents a gallon
and eroded by inflation; cars
have become more fuel-effi-
cient, and their use has leveled
off. As a result, the tax can no
longer cover the government’s
share – about 27 percent –
maintaining the country’s
roads and bridges.
One in three major Ameri-
can roads is in poor or medi-
ocre condition, according to
the American Society of Civil
Engineers, and even more are
severely congested. The cost to
the average motorist is more
than $1,000 a year.
There are many ways to
solve this problem. Raising the
gas tax would be the simplest;
other options include imposing
new user fees on roads and
bridges, creating more pub-
lic-private partnerships, and
adopting congestion pricing.
All of these have merit.
Congress has had years to
do it. Instead of providing the
needed funds in a stable way, it
has adopted temporary patch-
es. Now, with the trust fund
about to run out of money, it
is kicking the can down the
pothole-filled road again by
relying on another gimmick –
“pension smoothing” – to keep
the fund solvent through next
spring.
Pension smoothing is a eu-
phemism for letting companies
put less money into employees’
retirement funds. This raises
taxable income in the short
run, generating more revenue
for the federal government.
Eventually companies will
have to make up for the short-
falls, which will lower future
taxable income. In effect, Con-
gress is using future revenue
to pay for current spending –
but without calling it borrow-
ing, to which it’s opposed. It’s
a scam.
The House, by a vote of 367-
55, passed the pension-smooth-
ing bill Tuesday, even though
members who call themselves
fiscal conservatives were
advised to oppose it by the
Club for Growth and Heritage
Action.
It’s a shame that President
Barack Obama and members
of Congress, including those
who wanted to raise the gas
tax, didn’t find another solu-
tion to the funding problem.
The president reluctantly
endorsed the House bill,
explaining that he does not
want to see the fund run dry
in August, as the Department
of Transportation said it will.
That’s understandable, but it’s
also shortsighted.
Without strong political
pressure, Congress will keep
the gimmicks coming – and
that needs to stop.

NEW LENOX – After play-ing many games with theircollege teams, one wouldthink baseball players wouldlike to take the summer off.
But for players on theJoliet Dirtbags and the Ro-meoville Royals, competingthroughout the summer inthe Chicago Suburban Base-ball League can be beneficial.
The squads met up for adoubleheader on Sunday atLincoln-Way West and al-though both would have pre-ferred a 2-0 day as opposed tothe split that happened, whatseemed more important isjust remaining sharp by play-ing with and against othergood players.
So whether athletes are at-tending Division I programsor performing for collegesthat many people may nothave heard of, staying busythroughout the summer iscritical.
“While we want to comeout here and have fun, we alsowant to be competitive,” saidJoliet’s Cody Columbus, whograduated from Joliet Cath-olic and plays at St. Francis.“You want to make sure thatyour skills are there so thatyou’re ready when you goback to school.
“We have a lot of Lewisguys on our team and eventhough they’re at a higher lev-el than us, they can still relateto all of us. And for the guyson our team who are from St.Xavier, we don’t fight overwho’s going to win in the reg-ular season.”
The Dirtbags, who arecoached by Kevin Camp-bell, and the Royals, who arecoached by Mike Guilfoyle,both have rosters that featurea wide-range of college ath-letes.
“There’s a lot of good com-petition in this league andit’s great to compete againstguys that I grew up playingagainst,” said the RoyalsBen Guilfoyle, who playedat Plainfield East and nowcompetes at Calvin College(Michigan). “It ’s alwaysgreat competition between
us and Joliet.“The CSBL is a compet-
itive league and a lot of theguys take it seriously, and itreally helps us get prepped forwhen we go back to school.Coming from Calvin, it’s goodto come back here and play ata high level and play againstguys that you know and that’sa cool aspect.”
Joliet (10-9 South Divi-sion) won the opener, 4-3, asAustin Mastela (Lockport/Lewis) went 4 for 4 with threeextra-base hits. The Dirtbags’
three through six hitters fin-ished with eight hits.
“You don’t want to getrusty, so you want to keepcompeting,” the Dirtbags’Tom Hayes said. “This is agreat group of guys and I’mglad that I got on the team. Ev-eryone on the team is compet-itive and we’re doing it for onegoal, which is to stay crisp forthe college season.
“But we don’t take it too se-riously where we’re stressingout and we want to have fun.Now that I know all of these
guys from St. Francis, it will
make the games during the
year more fun when you see
some familiar faces. This is
my first year here and I love
this team.”
In the second game, Romeo-
ville (11-9 South) got an RBI
single from Alex Galik in the
seventh to score Steven Wit-
tkamp (Minooka/JJC) with
the winning run in a 3-2 victo-
ry. Tommy Hook (Lockport/
Northern Illinois) also had an
RBI for the Royals while Da-
mon Softcheck (Joliet West/
Saint Xavier) and Mastela
drove in runs for the Dirtbags.
“There are a lot of good
players in this league and
the baseball is very compet-
itive,” said the Royals Caleb
Kissel, who played at Plain-
field North and now goes to
Rose-Hulman. “So it definite-
ly makes you better when you
go back to school in the fall.
“We have a lot of nice guys
on our team who know how to
play ball and they play hard
so it’s fun to be around them.
And it’s nice to come back
from one summer to the next
to see how everyone is doing
and see how their school year
went.”
While both are chasing
Beecher (12-8) and Crestwood
(13-10-1) in the South Division,
they’re pleased with what
they’re accomplishing this
summer.
“We come out here and
compete every day, whether
it’s against a guy from a Divi-
sion I or II school or any other
type of competition,” said the
Dirtbags’ Bryan Polak, who
like Hayes goes to SXU. “But
a big thing about the summer
is winning and having some
fun, too.
“Everybody wants to com-
pete every day and get better
at the game, whether it’s at the
plate or in the field. Any way
that you can get better is what
it’s all about. We have a group
of characters on our team, so
keeping it loose is a big part of
being on this team.”

Don’t just landscape -Waterscape!
By Diane Krieger Spivak
With more people opting for
staycations, a growing trend in
landscape design is waterscap-
ing. Who doesn’t like to relax
and unwind near a babbling
brook, fountain, or waterfall?
No matter the size of your
potential personal paradise,
whether a tiny lot or acres upon
acres, incorporating water fea-
tures into your landscape can
transform a blah backyard into
a lush, restful haven, and could
be easier and more affordable
than you might imagine.
Depending on the size and
complexity of your project -
and how willing you are to roll
up your sleeves - you can do
the job yourself or call an ex-
pert in landscape design.
Water features come in
many forms - container water
gardens, fountains, bubbling
urns, waterfalls and ecosystem
ponds.
The do-it-yourselfer with
little time or space can easily
set up a small tabletop fountain
or container water garden. If
you want to go large, you can
put in a pond or lake. Waterfalls
are possible even in small spac-
es, and a waterscape can also
include a water garden, with
aquatic plants and/or fish, and
even underwater lighting.
There are several types of
ponds available to create your
waterscape. A preformed pond
is a hard shell you place in the
ground. A liner pond is made
with a flexible liner than you
can make into any shape, or
depth, that you want. A filter
will circulate the water and
keep it fresh.
That Perennial Place, inMor-
ris, a family-run landscaping
business, has installed more
than 600 ponds and water
gardens, from basic to extrav-
agant, and offers a beautiful
selection of koi fish to include
in your waterscape’s pond.
Their professional designers
can install and maintain both
residential and commercial wa-
terscapes.

NASCAR Nationwide Series driver Chase Elliott wins the EnjoyIllinois.com race Saturday at ChicagolandSpeedway in Joliet.
Nationwide race whets appetite for SeptemberJOLIET – The official box
score from Saturday night’s
EnjoyIllinois300 at Chicago-
land Speedway reported 17
lead changes and 11 different
leaders.
There always will be lead
changes as pit stops run their
course. But the true indication
of what an outstanding race
it was came from how many
times the lead changed hands
during full-blown racing.
For instance, Brian Scott
led from the pole through Lap
20, when he was passed by
eventual winner Chase Elliott.
Ryan Blaney took over from
Elliott, who runs for JR Motor-
sports, in Lap 73 and held the
top spot through the second
round of pit stops.
Kyle Larson passed Blaney
on Lap 128 and was in com-
mand for the next 15 laps.
Elliott came back to lead for
16 laps, through 158, before
Blaney got the lead back for
four laps.
That’s where Trevor Bayne,
the eventual runner-up,
jumped into the mix, leading
through Lap 176. But Elliott
passed Bayne and held him off
the rest of the way in the 200-
lap event for his third victory
of the season. He led a race-
high 85 laps.
A rookie who moved back
into the Nationwide Series
points lead, Elliott won ear-
lier this season at Texas and
Darlington. So all three of his
Nationwide victories have
come on tracks he saw for the
first time.
“We had an awesome race,”
Elliott said. “I try to make the
most of my practice laps. They
gave me a good car. That gives
me time to learn the track in
practice.”
Bayne thought he was reel-
ing in Elliott down the stretch
but ran out of time.
“The gap was closing,” he
said. “Probably 10 more laps,
but we’ll never know.”
As dethroned points leader
Regan Smith had predicted,
the Nationwide race was
competitive regardless of how
many Sprint Cup drivers were
entered. Larson and Kasey
Kahne were the only Sprint
Cup drivers here on a week off
for the Sprint Cup Series.
Elliott leads the Nationwide
point standings by seven over
Smith and eight over Elliott
Sadler. Ty Dillon is 30 behind,
Scott 47 down and Bayne trails
by 50. All six have a realistic
shot at the season champion-
ship.
Smith’s struggles at
Chicagoland continued as he
finished 16th. Sadler settled
for 10th. Dillon ran fifth, just
behind Kahne.
Young Erik Jones, mean-
while, made his Nationwide
debut a success. He had the Joe
Gibbs Racing No. 20 Toyota in
the top 10 virtually the entire
night and finished seventh.
Jones won the Truck Series
race for Kyle Busch Motor-
sports a week earlier at Iowa.
Jones said the race would
be a learning experience for
him. He apparently learns in
a hurry.
From our standpoint, the
EnjoyIllinois300.com whets
our appetite for September,
when NASCAR returns to
Chicagoland for a weekend
with a Truck Series race, a
Nationwide race and the Cup
race that kicks off the 10-race
Chase for the Sprint Cup.
HONORING FRED LORENZEN
A nice sidelight to Satur-
day’s racing occurred in the
newly created Legends Club
high atop Chicagoland Speed-
way.
Amanda Lorenzen Gard-
strom, daughter of NASCAR
great and Elmhurst native Fred
Lorenzen, was on hand for the
unveiling of her dad’s photo in
the club. He is in ill health and
was unable to attend.
The elder Lorenzen was
among five who were elected to
the NASCAR Hall of Fame in
May. He was only 33 when he
retired from racing but already
had accomplished so much.
He remains the only driver
to have 20 victories in his first
100 starts. In 1963 alone, he had
six wins, 21 top-fives and 23
top-10s in 29 races. He won the
Daytona 500 and World 600 in
1965 and was the first NASCAR
driver to earn more than
$100,000 in a season.
“He retired at age 33 because
of family,” Amanda said. “He
was such a good dad. The sport
lost a great driver when he
retired, and we gained a dad.
“He was very humble. He
never really said to me why he
retired, but it later came out
that it was family.”
Chicagoland Speedway
president Scott Paddock said
the unveiling of pictures in the
Legends Club “is a way to pay
homage to the pioneers and
legends of the sport. We see the
economic influence from what
these guys did for the sport. The
Sprint Cup race in September
alone will pump $150 million
into the local economy.”
Paddock has been helping
beat the drum for Lorenzen’s
inclusion in the NASCAR Hall
of Fame in recent years, and it
will become official when he is
inducted in January of 2015.
“The NASCAR Hall of Fame
has been around about four or
five years,” Paddock said. “I
was discouraged in the early
years that he didn’t get in. No
doubt he deserved it.
“To have one of our own in
the NASCAR Hall of Fame is in-
credible. There are only about
30 total members.”

JOLIET – Tim Middleton,Fran Gleason and John Platthad scored exciting victories intheir respective divisions.
It was time for the realheavy hitters to step to the tee.They did not disappoint.
Hitting his six tee shots intoa breeze that varied from mod-erate to light, Joe Tabisz puta 320-yard drive on the grid toslip past a crowded field andwin the Open Division in theJoliet Park District LongestDrive Contest on Friday at In-wood.
Before hundreds of fans inthe annual event organized byInwood general manager BrianLegan, Tabisz’s drive slippedpast Mark Swinford’s 319-yard
effort. Steve Kois came in at 317yards and Jason Bogart andRyan Herter at 315.
Defending champion FrankHohenadel did not compete.
“This was my first one ofthese ever,” said Tabisz, an Au-rora resident and an elementa-ry school teacher in Naperville.“My dad heard about it througha buddy who got in last year.My wife is in Wisconsin thisweekend, so I’m a free man. Myfolks came with me to watch.”
The lanky Tabisz, 31, said heusually hits drives “340 to 350,but the 320 was the only one Igot in.”
He said he was cut from hishigh school golf team as a fresh-man at Downers Grove Southand, “I guess I got angry. I getup there and hit the ball hard.”
While the distance is whatgets quoted, a tee shot must hitinside the grid and finish itsroll inside the grid in order tocount.
While local players com-pete, so do some from outsidethe Joliet area.
“Mark [Swinford] said he
travels around the countryplaying in these contests, aboutone a month,” Tabisz said. “Heeven did one in Utah.”
Just before the Open Divi-sion took over, Platt, the direc-tor of instruction at Mistwood,wowed the crowd with a 298-yard bomb that overtook MikeFerguson’s 297 to win the MACDivision (Middle-Age Crisis Di-vision) for 45 to 54 year-olds.
Tony Giese had boomed a292-yard drive earlier, whichwound up third.
“I’ve got a little longer driv-er this year,” said Platt, the
Providence boys coach. “Withbeing at Mistwood, I’m able tomake up my own clubs. Butonce the wind kicked up like itdid, I thought I had no chance.I’m usually about hitting it inplay.”
Platt has entered the com-petition previously and said heusually is good for second orthird place.
“Jeff Stubler and RonKlover have won it before,” hesaid. “At least I beat Ted [JolietPark District director of reve-nue facilities Ted Brodeur]. Ihad a little side bet with him.”
Brodeur finished fourth at283 yards.
Former Joliet Catholicstandout athlete Christie Sed-don appeared in good shape inthe Women’s Division with her231-yard drive. But Plainfieldresident Fran Gleason stole thethunder with a 240-yard poke.
“It’s funny, I haven’t reallygolfed for five years because wehave two small kids,” said Glea-son, 41 and a Plainfied resident.“A friend asked me to come toladies night out here about a
month ago, and [University ofSt. Francis men’s coach] PaulDowney said I should come outto the long driving contest. SoI did.”
Gleason said her husband,Ken, taught her to play golfabout 10 or 11 years ago. “Wewere dating then,” she said.“That was a good thing. If wehad been married, I don’t knowif it would have worked out aswell as it did.”
Middleton’s victory in theSeniors Division (55-over)came compliments of a 277-yard drive. That beat Al VanGampler’s 269.
“I just turned 55 so this wasmy first year in the seniorgroup,” he said. “My first fiveshots missed the grid, and Iwasn’t happy about that. ButI stayed calm and got one thatfelt good.”
Middleton said he is retiringat the end of August, so he an-ticipates playing a significantamount of golf in the near fu-ture. The long-drive contestfigures to be among his “must’events.

Joliet comes up short versusWindy CityBy MIKE FITZGERALD
Shaw Media Correspondent
JOLIET – Windy City beatthe Slammers, 5-3, Sunday atSilver Cross Field to take therubber match of the three-game series in Frontier Leagueaction.
The Thunderbolts (19-34)led the Slammers (21-33), 5-3,in the bottom of the ninth, butJoliet, as it had Saturday, man-aged to get the potential win-ning run to the plate.
Jake Gronsky drew a one-out walk and stole second.Grant DeBruin was hit by apitch with two outs. That gaveAdam Giacalone a chance forsome ninth-inning heroics.
Giacalone worked thecount to 3-2 before swingingand missing a fastball from theThunderbolts’ Daniel Care-la, who earned his fifth save.Windy City’s Travis Tingle (5-3) earned the win.
The Thunderbolts touched
up Joliet starter Colin Gotzon(0-1) for three runs in the firstinning. The Slammers’ right-hander walked Evan Button tostart the game, could not get toMichael Torres bunt in time,and then allowed Kyle Robin-son’s three-run homer.
The Slammers picked Got-zon up in the bottom of thefirst, tieing the game at 3.Gronsky reached on an infieldsingle. Russell Moldenhauerwalked and DeBruin singledto left to load the bases. Gia-calone followed with a singleto right to score Gronsky andMoldenhauer. Seth Granger’sfielder’s choice forced Gia-calone but it enabled DeBruinto tie the game.
“I was trying to get some-thing in play to get our offensegoing,” Giacalone said.
Gotzon worked himself outof a bases-loaded jam in the topof the fourth inning. After re-tiring the first two hitters, hegave up singles to Max White
and Davidson Peguero beforewalking Andrew Brauer. Got-zon struck out Spencer Castroswinging to end the threat.
Windy City broke the tiein the top of the fifth inning.Button doubled to right,Tor-res dropped another bunt fora base hit and Robinson deliv-ered a sacrifice fly to centerto score Button. After RyanSoares singled to center, Slam-mers manager Jeff Isom wentto the bullpen for lefty MattCrim to face left-handed hitterRyan McIntyre. McIntyre laiddown a bunt that Crim couldnot field, allowing Torres toscore to make it 5-3.
The Slammers host Tra-verse City for a three-game se-ries starting at 7:05 p.m. Mon-day.
“Our team is definitelygood enough to string somewins together,” Giacalonesaid. “We’ve lost a lot of closeones. We’re right there. Wejust have to get it going.”
THUNDERBOLTS 5, SLAMMERS 3
By DOUG FERGUSONThe Associated Press
HOYLAKE, England –Walking off the 18th green asthe British Open champion,Rory McIlroy kept gazing atall the greats on golf’s oldesttrophy.
On the claret jug, his nameis etched in silver below PhilMickelson.
In the record book, he islisted behind Jack Nicklausand Tiger Woods as the young-est to get three legs of the ca-reer Grand Slam.
And over four days at RoyalLiverpool, he had no equal.
“I’m immensely proud ofmyself,” McIlroy said after histwo-shot victory Sunday thatwas never really in doubt. “Tosit here, 25 years of age, andwin my third major champi-onship and be three-quartersof the way to a career GrandSlam ... yeah, I never dreamedof being at this point in my ca-reer so quickly.”
He had to work a little hard-er than he wanted for this one.
Staked to a six-shot leadgoing into the final round,McIlroy turned back everychallenge. He made two keybirdies around the turn, anddelivered a majestic drive atjust the right moment to closewith a 1-under-par 71 and com-
plete his wire-to-wire victory.In another major lacking ten-
sion over the final hour, whatbrought The Open to life was thepotential of its champion.
After almost two years ofturmoil, McIlroy looked likethe kid who shattered scoringrecords to win the 2011 U.S.Open at Congressional, andwho won the PGA Champion-ship at Kiawah Island by a re-cord eight shots a year later.
Boy Wonder is back. Ormaybe he’s just getting startedagain.
McIlroy won by two shotsover Sergio Garcia and Rick-ie Fowler to become the firststart-to-finish winner sinceWoods at St. Andrews in 2005.Even with one major left thisyear, the Northern Irishmanalready is looking ahead to Au-
gusta National next April for ashot at the slam.
“I’ve really found my pas-sion again for golf,” McIlroysaid. “Not that it ever dwin-dled, but it’s what I think aboutwhen I get up in the morning.It’s what I think about when Igo to bed. I just want to be thebest golfer that I can be. And Iknow if I can do that, then tro-phies like this are within mycapability.”
McIlroy put an end to thismajor with a powerful drivedown the fairway at the par-5 16th, setting up a two-puttbirdie to restore his lead tothree shots. He finished withtwo pars, tapping in for par onthe 18th green.
The hard part was tryingnot to cry when his mother,Rosie, came onto the greenwith tears streaming down herface. She was not at the othertwo majors. Before leaving,McIlroy turned and applaudedthe fans in the horseshoe are-na who were witness to anoth-er masterpiece.
This could have been an-other romp except for a shakystretch early for McIlroy, andsolid efforts from Garcia andFowler.
“I think that we gave it agood effort,” Garcia said. “Andthere was someone a little bitbetter.”

Ruffalo bringsenergymessageto crowd in Joliet
By JAY COHENThe Associated Press
JOLIET – Mark Ruffalo had a big smileon his face as he signed ticket stubs andposed for pictures at Chicagoland Speed-way. A steady stream of fans approachedthe actor from all angles, but he made itlook as if it was a small party with a bunchof old friends.
Ruffalo felt right at home at his secondNASCAR race.
“This culture is really familiar to me,”he said. “These are like my people. I grewup an hour and a half away from here inKenosha, Wisconsin. So this is my kind offamily. This is what my people are like.”
Ruffalo, 46, served as the grand marshalfor Saturday night’s Nationwide Seriesstop, but he also came outto support Leilani Munterin the ARCA race. Munt-er’s PrairieGold Solar No.66 Toyota included an adfor Ruffalo’s The SolutionsProject on the car.
Ruffalo and Stanfordprofessor Mark Jacobsonhelped create the organization in 2011 toadvocate for the transition to 100 percentclean, renewable energy. NASCAR hasstepped up its environmental efforts overthe years, and Ruffalo said he found a re-ceptive audience at the race.
It helped that Ruffalo had the perfectspokeswoman in Munter, who has a de-gree in biology and drives an electric Tes-la Model S off the track. Munter also hassolar panels on her house, and her mottois “Never underestimate a vegetarian hip-pie chick with a race car.”
Using a solar-based system in her pitarea that is also used by the U.S. military,Munter finished 12th in the ARCA race.
“What we want to say to people andwhat she is a perfect example of is youknow we really don’t have to give up any-thing,” Ruffalo said. “You don’t have togive up NASCAR because we’re moving toa carbon-free structure and infrastructureof carbon-free energy environment. Youcan still have those things.”
Ruffalo’s newest movie is “BeginAgain,” in which he plays a divorced, mid-dle-aged record executive struggling inthe modern music industry. It also starsKeira Knightley as a British singer whocaptures Ruffalo’s attention, and HaileeSteinfeld as his teenage daughter.
He received an Emmy nomination thismonth for his compelling performance in“The Normal Heart,” an HBO film adapt-ed from Larry Kramer’s 1985 play aboutthe early years of the AIDS crisis.

JOLIET – As she watchedher first service dog train-ing session, Sr. Sharon
Frederick, coordinator of thesisters at Our Lady of AngelsRetirement Home in Joliet,couldn’t believe what shesaw.
One particular puppy,learning skills to help a dia-betic patient, had retrieved awell-hidden insulin kit.
“The insulin was in a dif-ferent room and he was stillable to locate it,” Fredericksaid.
Heartland Service Dogsin Mokena is using spaceat OLA to train its puppies.These will then serve areaadults and children withcertain disabilities, includingmobility, hearing and sei-zure, said Heartland directorand founder Linda Fox.
In addition, OLA is help-ing to socialize the puppiesby allowing them to visit withthe residents.
“Time and time again I seeresidents that have stuffedanimals in their rooms forcomfort, so you should seethe looks on their faces whena dog comes in,” Fredericksaid. “They fall in love withthem.”
Barb Bolek of Shorewood,one of the Heartland ServiceDogs puppy raisers, had re-cently brought her 18-month-old labradoodle – Eve – toOLA. Bolek joined the Heart-land volunteers a year andhalf ago when Bolek learnedof a promotional event inMokena, she said.
Since raising a service dogwas on Bolek’s bucket list– she already has a therapydog – Bolek abandoned herpre-holiday cooking and wentto Mokena. After laying eyeson a particular “little ball offur,” Bolek headed over to thedirector, Linda Fox, and said,“I want to be this puppy’smommy.”
Bolek’s job is to raise Eve
– at Bolek’s expense – until
Eve is about 20 months old,
Fox said. Eve will then return
to Fox for additional train-
ing, Bolek said. In addition
to formal training sessions,
Bolek ensures Eve is at home
in the world.
Just this past week, Bolek
said, Eve has been to the
grocery store, the bank, the
veterinarian, Joliet Area
Community Hospice, church
and a Home Depot, Bolek
said. During her stay with
Bolek, Eve has also taken a
road trip to national parks
and flow to California, twice.
“She always wears her
service vest so everyone
knows she is a working dog,”
Bolek said. “The polite thing
is not to talk or touch to a dog
when it is working because
it is necessary for it to pay
attention to its handler.”
At home Bolek reinforc-
es obedience training with
both dogs, Eve, as well as
Gladys, Bolek’s 4-year Cav-
alier King Charles Spaniel.
Gladys is a “reading tutor”
at St Jude Catholic School
in Joliet, along with visiting
clients at Joliet Area Com-
munity Hospice and Parc
at Joliet, a nursing home,
Bolek said.
The dogs sit on command,
wait for Bolek– their pack
leader – to exit a room first
and ignore their food while
Bolek first says a pre-meal-
time prayer. When Eve moves
on, Bolek will bring a Heart-
land Golden Retriever puppy
into her home and begin the
process again. Bolek already
has already picked out her
puppy, Penelope.
In the three years since
Fox and her husband Mike
began the nonprofit Heartland
Service Dogs, they have placed
five dogs, Fox said. Two have
gone to hearing-impaired
individuals, two went to people
with mobility issues and one is
a diabetic service dog.
Several dogs are “up and
coming,” another group of
puppies, at 8 to 10 months
old, are in training, Fox said.
Heartland recently wel-
comed a litter of nine Golden
Retriever puppies, all of
whom are receiving regular
handling by “puppy cuddler”
volunteers of all ages, before
going to live with puppy rais-
ers, Bolek said.
The Foxes breed their own
dogs, which allows them to
control personality, temper-
ament and health, an import-
ant consideration, Fox said,
when only about 40 percent
of dogs that train as potential
service dogs actually work as
service dogs.
One of Heartland’s dogs
has already been retired,
Fox said, for health reasons.
Labradors and Labradoodles
make good service dogs,
Fox said, because they have
natural retrieving instincts,
trainable personalities and
social natures.
“We capitalize on those
things,” Fox said. “We don’t
want the dog to be a couch
potato that sleeps all day. We
want them to be scanning,
scanning, scanning.”
Fox and her husband
began training service dogs
in 1998 for another organi-
zation, but those dogs were
not placed locally, she said.
She and Mike wanted to offer
service dogs to people in their
nearby communities who
needed them.
Furthermore, it can be
expensive for a person to get
a service dog; the cost can
range from $10,000 to $20,000,
Fox said. That’s why Heart-
land, even after it expands
and acquires its own building
and paid staff, intend to op-
erate as a nonprofit and give
dogs away for free, she added.
In the meantime, Fox
said, with the waiting list
for a Heartland service dog
currently at two years, the
organization could use more
sponsors and more volun-
teers, especially the latter.
“They are truly the best
part of our organization and
I am grateful to them,” Fox
said. “We just need more of
them.”

CROSSWORD SUDOKU BRIDGE by Phillip Alder
CELEBRITY CIPHER
PUZZLES
Alan Kulwicki, a NASCARdriver who died in a plane crashin 1993, said, “In every aspect oflife, have a game plan, and thendo your best to achieve it.”
That definitely applies at thebridge table. Each side shouldhave a game plan. Declarer’s isto make his contract; the defend-ers’ is to thwart declarer’s plan.
In this deal, South is in threeno-trump and West leads thespade seven. What should eachside do?
South might have openedtwo no-trump. Despite havingonly 19 high-card points, all ofthose aces and kings increasethe hand’s value. In the actualauction, South’s two-no-trumprebid showed 18 or 19 (or a poor20) points and was in principlegame-forcing. North had a min-imum initial response, but hisfive-card suit was worth an extrapoint, and any time you smell agame, bid game.
South has six top tricks: threespades (given the lead), oneheart and two clubs. His planshould be to play on diamonds togenerate the extra winners thathe needs. So he takes the firsttrick with his spade jack andleads the diamond king. Whatshould happen next?
West knows that South isstrong in spades, and the clubholding in dummy meansthat that suit will not produceenough defensive tricks. Instead,West must win the first diamondtrick and shift to the heartqueen. Then the contract shouldfail.
Yes, if South knew where all52 cards lay, he could have madethe contract after a spade lead.The curious may work it out.
Each side has itsgame plan

DatingsceneisfrustratingforindependentyoungwomanDear Abby: I am a young
woman hoping to find“The One.” But I havecome to realize I’m notthe normal female. I don’tget manicures or go shop-ping. (I hate shopping!)When I meet a guy, helikes that I’m “me,” but ifwe get serious, then I’meither “too independent,”“too outspoken” or “notgirly enough.”
I don’t want to changemyself or pretend to besomeone I’m not. Oneminute they like thatI’m independent and canfend for myself; the nextthey don’t like that I don’tdepend on them to paybills, etc.
Why is it always a dou-
ble standard? Men likestrong women until theyare with one. Then theycan’t handle it. MaybeI’m too much for the menwhere I live. Is it possiblefor me to find someone?– Independent Female InLouisiana
Dear Independent Female:Welcome to the won-derful world of dating.While some might thinkof dating as a popularitycontest, it’s really morelike sifting for a gold nug-get. It takes a lot of people
years to strike gold – andit’s the same with dating.Is it possible to find some-one? Absolutely. But ittakes time, stamina and asense of humor to survivethe process.
Dear Abby: I had a babygirl a month ago and Ilive with my in-laws. Myhusband isn’t here rightnow because of his job.
They are great andvery helpful, but I neverhave any private timewith my daughter. Everytime she cries, my sisters-in-law pick her up. Whenshe wants to sleep, theyalways take her awayfrom me to put her tosleep. Even when I breast-feed, they are always in
the room with me.I can’t seem to tell
them no or ask them toget out of the room. Theyare very helpful, and theyare leaving in a monthfor another country, soI understand they wantto be with her as muchas they can. However, Istill would like some timealone with my daughter.Advice? – New At This InHouston
Dear NewAt This: As amother, it’s up to you toassert yourself and dowhat is right for yourbaby. Find the courage totell your in-laws you aregrateful for their assis-tance but want privacywhen you nurse the baby.
It is important that yourdaughter bonds with you,and if your sisters-in-laware always tending to herneeds, it might be moredifficult for you whenthey leave. I’m sure yourpediatrician would backyou up.
Dear Abby: Would it beOK for an 80-year-old manto take a 50-year-old wom-an to supper? We oftentalk together at church. –Lou In Wisconsin
Dear Lou: Only if shesays yes.

DEAR ABBY
Rest, pain relief and stretchinghelpheal rotator cuff injuryDear Dr. K: I’ve injured my
rotator cuff. What can I do torelieve the pain?
Dear Reader: When peoplehear “rotator cuff injury,”they often think of baseballpitchers. But most people withrotator cuff injuries are likeyou and me. Gradual wear andtear from everyday activities,over many years, makes allolder adults vulnerable to suchinjuries.
What exactly is a rotatorcuff? Your shoulder is made upof your collarbone, upper armbone and shoulder blade. Agroup of tendons – strong cordsof tissue – tether muscles fromyour shoulder blade and ribsto your upper arm bone. Theyhelp you raise and rotate yourarm. This group of tendons isyour rotator cuff.
You can injure your rotatorcuff through overuse of theshoulder joint, which can leadto inflammation or small tearsin the rotator cuff. Inflamma-tion also might occur in thebursa, a small cushion that re-duces friction between tendonsand bones.
Rotator cuff injuries cause
pain in your shoulder andupper arm. The pain mightbe most noticeable when youreach up or out – when youcomb your hair or slip yourarm into a sleeve, for example.
When you first have thesymptoms of a rotator cuffinjury, your doctor is likelyto recommend you rest theshoulder. After you have donethat for some time, your doctormight then recommend youstart gentle shoulder stretch-ing and strengthening exer-cises. But before you start anexercise program, you mightneed a corticosteroid injectionto control pain and inflam-mation. Daily nonsteroidalanti-inflammatory drugs, suchas ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin,others) also help decrease painand inflammation.
Your doctor might recom-mend working with a physicaltherapist. He or she can designan individualized program to
help you increase your rangeof motion, strengthen yourshoulder muscles, and stretchyour muscles and ligaments tokeep them supple.
For example, try thissimple shoulder stretch. Sayyour left shoulder is injured.Stand with your feet hip-width apart. Take your lefthand and put it on your rightshoulder. Cup your left elbowwith your right hand. Thengently pull your left elbowacross your chest until youfeel a mild stretch. Hold for10 to 30 seconds. Return tothe starting position. Repeatthree to four times. If yourright shoulder is injured,perform the stretch on theother side: right hand on leftshoulder, left hand cuppingyour right elbow.
With a combination ofcorticosteroid treatment andphysical therapy, your injuryshould heal within four to sixweeks.

31TODAY Your curiosity will be magnified this year. Items
and investments that will improve your future will be made
available to you. Your instincts will enable you to make
prudent choices. Financial opportunities will come your way,
but refrain frommaking a major investment in someone else’s
venture.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Let someone special know how
you feel. A miscommunication could hurt someone’s feelings,
but a truthful dialogue will strengthen a relationship. Work as
a teamwith a close friend or family member.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – You will be pleasantly surprised if
you choose to join a serious-minded organization. Your long
list of accomplishments will make you feel understandably
proud, and will impress your cohorts.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Look before you leap. Although
youmay have several interests in commonwith a new ac-
quaintance, you should take time to investigate any problems
before youmake a promise.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Relationships with family mem-
bers will try your patience. Avoid unpleasant confrontations.
Opt to spend time with peers, accomplishing goals that will
build your confidence and brighten your future.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Your curiosity will be stim-
ulated by exotic destinations. Even if a trip is not currently
possible, there are many cultural activities you can participate
in that would quench your thirst for knowledge.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Don’t let another’s opinion
cause you to change your career direction. Do what’s best for
you. Consider all of your options and follow your instincts.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Turmoil is likely to disrupt
your personal life. Take a step back and re-evaluate your
current situation. An objective viewwill be the key to avoiding
regret.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – You will have a much better
chance of reaching your goal if you keep your plans a secret.
While it’s natural to want to share your ideas, wait until you
are fully prepared.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Focus on social or humanitari-
an events that you feel passionate about. Your persistence and
dedication will enable you to persuade others to join in the
cause that you’re championing.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Youmay be frustrated, but don’t
let problems at work interfere with your home life. Whatever
the issue, do your best, act professionally and keep the two
environments separate.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – After working hard, you
deserve some downtime to relax with friends. A movie or con-
cert will lift your spirits; a day of pampering will help prepare
you for your next challenge.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Don’t take unnecessary risks. A
joint moneymaking schememay tempt you, but you should
hold back. You will do better sticking to conservative invest-
ments that don’t involve other people
