Police Academy Romeoville police work with area teens

By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

H

oning their own investigative skills, teens had the opportunity to work alongside Romeoville police officers during the first Youth Police Academy.

“We felt the class went great,” saidAssistant Chief Steve Lucchesi.

“The students enjoyed themselves and so did the instructors. It was a great opportunity for us to interact with teenagers in a fun, and hands on instructional environment.”

The Romeoville Police Department set out to engage teens in a program that teaches what law enforcement is all about.

Similar to its Citizen Police Academy, the Youth Academy was offered the last week of June.The free five-day program was open to teenagers aged 15 to 18 with parent approval.

Participants went through an array of classes including DUI/ Traffic enforcement, criminal law; use of force; taser; firearms safety; officer survival; report writing; K-9 program;the booking process; evidence; gangs and more.

“It gave the kids an opportunity to learn about many different aspects of policing that they could not have learned elsewhere— from making mock traffic stops with the squad cars, to looking for and processing evidence at a crime scene,” said Lucchesi.

Lucchesi said the department plans to host the class annually in the month of June.

“It is a big undertaking for the department, but it is a program we feel is worth the work,” said Lucchesi. “The payoff for us is to see that the kids are having a lot of fun and at the same time learning about what we do as police officers. The officers also benefit from having positive interactions with the kids.”

Preserving Our Past Division Street Bridge reflects the protective benefits of Will County Historic Register

By Jonathan Samples Staff Reporter

Over the next several weeks, the Bugle will shed insight into the Will County Historic Preservation Commission.

Preserving Our Past will journey to a handful of registered Will County historic landmarks, take a closer look into the historic survey process, and introduce readers to members of the commission and the work that they do.

The first stop in the Preserving Our Past series is the Division Street Bridge, which was constructed in Lockport Township in 1899. But the bridge’s future was not always guaranteed.

A Look Back No longer in use, the Division Street Bridge is a remnant of the region’s industrial past. It was constructed at the same time as the Sanitary and Ship Canal, which replaced the I & M Canal as an important link between Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River.

The historic bridge is made up of three different sections, or trusses, which together span over 500 feet. Originally, the Division Street Bridge was needed to span the tailrace from the controlling works of the Sanitary Canal located north of Ninth Street.

The Division Street Bridge is not in use today and access to the bridge is restricted.

The bridge is located within the Lockport Prairie Nature Preserve.

This link to the region’s past and the living history that the structure represents are a couple of the reasons why John Lamb, vice chairman and historian for the Will County Historic Preservation Commission, nominated the Division Street Bridge for the Will County Register of Historic Places in 1994.

“We had been working on a number of items in the area here at the time,” Lamb said. “It was one of the things we thought should be saved.”

A resident of Lockport since 1956, Lamb’s love for

history led to his involvement in the Lockport Heritage and Architecture Commission and the Will County HPC. After working nearly 40 years as a history professor at Lewis University in Romeoville, Lamb’s focus shifted after his retirement in 1994 to historic preservation.

“The whole purpose to me of historic preservation is to preserve that part of our history that is never in a sense recorded, like the Civil War or something,” Lamb said. “But that history is there and it’s important for people to see. That part of the past that is still there.”

The Division Street Bridge was approved as a Will County Landmark on Feb. 16, 1995,

making it and the Renwick Road Bridge, which was approved on the same date, the first two structures to be granted landmark status under the, then, newly created HPC. “Both of those bridges would have been destroyed, because they were obsolete,” Lamb said.

In addition to the Division Street Bridge, Lamb nominated the Renwick Road Bridge in Plainfield Township and the Patrick Fitzpatrick House in Lockport Township.

Saving the Past This designation, however, wasn’t the end of the Division Street Bridge’s story. The local landmark status, which is different from the national or state registers, is protective and grants local oversight to Will County officials. This protection helped to prevent the Division Street Bridge from destruction just years after it became a landmark.

In 1994, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began a survey of two bridges that crossed the Des Plaines River and connected to the Lockport Lock and Dam. Those bridges were the Division Street Bridge and the Ninth Street Bridge The Corps determined that the $1.5 million it would cost to destroy the bridge and erect a new one was more cost effective than servicing the century-old bridge. Lamb said the battle over destroying the bridge, much like the bridge’s history, was linked to Ship and Sanitary Canal.

“The Corps controls the sides of the Ship and Sanitary Canal,” Lamb said. “The Corps was anxious to develop the lock. So they would have been happy to get rid of that bridge.”

After a lengthy battle between the Corps and the HPC, a new bridge was constructed in 2002 near 16th Street, and the original Division Street Bridge was saved.

Lamb credited the outcome on the bridge’s designation as a local landmark.

“When we got the bridge labeled as a historic monument, the Corps can’t tear it down without local support,” Lamb said.

The bridge can be viewed from inside the Lockport Prairie Nature Preserve. jsamples@buglenewspapers.com

Bears, Lifesource host blood drive

By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

Giving blood can save a life.

It’s a simple message the 1985 Super Bowl champion Chicago Bears and Lifesource blood center want to get across.

The two groups are teaming up to give donors an opportunity to win an unprecedented football camp experience for boys and girls between the ages of 7 and 18. The camp will be led the likes of Steve McMichael, Jay Hildenberg, Otis Wilson, Keith VanHorne, Emery Moorehead and Sean Gayle.

A blood drive will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. July 21 at Romeoville High School, 100 North Independence Blvd. According to Lifesource spokeswoman Tammy Basile, Lifesource has been partnering with the Chicago Bears for the past three years to bring awareness to the need for blood donors.

“We are trying to bring attention to the need for blood,” Basile said. “Only 5 percent of people who are eligible to give blood actually donate. Yet every two seconds someone needs blood.”

Anyone who donates blood will be entered into a random

drawing with 400 winners receiving a ticket for a football training camp.

Two sessions will be held a morning session for ages 7 to 12 and an afternoon session for ages 13 to 18. Participants will learn football techniques from members of the 1985 Chicago Bears and receive an autograph. The camps are noncontact and all equipment will be provided.

“Fans seem to really relate to this opportunity; kids love it and parents get to watch from the stands,” Basile said. “It’s a great way to save lives and be able to teach the kids this summer on what it means to be a donor.”

According to Basile, it’s easy to donate.The donation process takes about an hour and is both safe and comfortable.

Blood donors need to be at least 17 years old, 16 with parental consent, weigh at least 110 pounds and be in good health. Most medications are accepted. Please bring photo identification such as a driver’s license, state ID or passport.

For more information, rules or to register for the drive, log onto www.lifesource.org or call 1-877-543-3768. katauskas@buglenewspapers.com

Village securing more open space

By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

The village is working with the Will County Forest Preserve District to annex nearly 240 acres of land into Romeoville to dedicate to open space.

While establishing its eastern borders and working to keep the public land for conservation purposes,the village is developing an annexation agreement for the 240 acres of land, including Veterans Woods that lies south of Route 53 on Joliet Road and south of Bluff Road. The area marks the entrance into Romeoville. It also includes prairie land that lies in a section adjacent to the Des Plaines River, on the East Side of Route 53, behind Mongo McMichaels.

Bugle File Photo

According to Village Manager Steve Gulden, the land currently lies in Will County. In order to annex the property into Romeoville, its zoning needs to be changed to P1, a conservation district consistent with what is set by the forest preserve. By zoning the property P1, the land will forever stay as open space as

long as it lies in Romeoville and the forest preserve continues to secure it as conservation land.

The standard annexation agreement also will include a partnership with the forest preserve for future bike trails within Romeoville. katauskas@buglenewspapers.com

Ludwig tabbed Female Athlete of the Year

By Mike Sandrolini Sports Reporter

Downers South’s All-State soccer forward Sarrah Ludwig said she was “kind of shocked” when informed that she is the Voyager Media Female Multisport Athlete of the Year for 2011-12.

“I didn’t even know I was up for nomination,” she said. “It makes me really happy.”

Several opponents throughout the area fell victim to Ludwig’s knack for scoring clutch goals.

The four-year starter netted 29 in her just-concluded senior season while helped lead the Mustangs to a third-place finish at the Class 3A state finals.

But she also was a thorn in foes’ sides on the basketball court. Ludwig, a two-year starter for coach Ellen O’Brien’s club, played either shooting guard or small forward. She averaged in double figures this past season while the Mustangs won 33 games during her two-year varsity career.

Ludwig had considered giving up basketball altogether following her freshman year to concentrate solely on soccer.

But she realized that basketball was “just as much a part of me as soccer was.”

Ludwig credits O’Brien for helping her improve her game.

“She’s so dedicated to game and has so much knowledge,” Ludwig said. “Each practice I learned something new.”

Ludwig, who also was named the Voyager Media Girls Soccer Player of theYear a few weeks ago, soon will be learning the finer points of college soccer when she takes the field next month at Valparaiso University. But she looks back on her DGS athletic career with fond memories— especially the Mustangs’ run to state after losing key players to graduation from the previous year.

“We had great seasons every year,” she said. “When my senior Scott Taylor/Bugle Staff

Bain named top male athlete

By Mark Gregory Sports Reporter

When someone thinks of the word athlete, their first visual is that of someone resembling Derrick Rose or Jay Cutler – a slender, muscular figure who looks every part of being fast and agile.

Don’t tell that to Bolingbrook’s Robby Bain.

While he is in shape, at 6-feet, 3-inches tall and nearly 300 pounds, he is equally imposing of a figure and is the Voyager Media Male Multisport Athlete of the Year.

“I think big guys get overlooked sometimes as just big and strong and not really athletes,” Bain said.“I work really hard to stay fast and agile for my size and be an athlete and not just a big guy.”

Bain maximized his size, strength and power, along with his foot speed and agility for a big man to anchor the offensive line that blocked for quarterback Aaron Bailey and

helped Bolingbrook win the Class 8A state football title last year.

“Athletically I was able to get out and block defensive lineman and get to the linebackers and block them,” he said.“It was a lot of fun.”

He then nearly doubled up on gold medals, as he lost his only wrestling match of the season in the Class 3A state finals at 285 pounds.

While he was upset at the time, Bain said he has had the time away now to reflect on his career as a Raider.

“I accomplished a lot of things at Bolingbrook,” he said.“I had a real good wrestling career and a really good football career, winning state for the first time ever. It was really fun.”

Bain has been in Champaign since early June working out with the University of Illinois, where he is competing for a job on the offensive line as a true freshman.

“Now, I want to make a name for myself at Illinois,” Bain said.

“It’s hard, really hard, but it’s really fun and I am enjoying it. It is a whole new level out here. Right now, I am trying to get bigger and stronger without losing my agility and footwork.”

Bain said he enjoys working out at U of I’s Memorial Stadium, where the Raiders won their state title.

“I won the only game I played there and that was sweet,” he said. “I just want to keep that rolling during my time here.”

Special Mention: DANTRELL WRIGHT The Plainfield South senior was a rare three-sport performer throughout his career. On the gridiron is where he shined most, finishing with 582 yards rushing, 60 catches for 714 and 17 total touchdowns, while also spending some time as a defender.

She also was the best hitter on the Hawks’ softball team the past two seasons. The first baseman batted over .400 each year— including .467 her senior year— and hit for the cycle during a game vs. Maine West in 2012.

LATASHA FIZER Fizer had a great senior campaign, being named to the Voyager Media All-Area Girls Volleyball team and being an AllState runner in girls track.

On the court she finished with 178 kills and 58 blocks and was named team MVP. “Latasha has been a fighter since she was a freshman,” Romeoville volleyball coach Melanie Rellstab said. “She is a hell of a volleyball player.

She meant everything to the team. She loves volleyball. She’s positive and never gets down and doesn’t let anyone around her get down. She will do great things next year.”

She joined the track team after the season started and made a difference in the sprint relays, helping the 400 and 800 relays advance to state. The 800 relay squad finished sixth in the state.

The rest of the finalists are:

CABRIANA CAPERS The only athlete to be nominated for Voyager Media Athlete of the Year two seasons in a row, Capers was a member of the Bolingbrook girls basketball team, where she was a force under the basket, both scoring and rebounding. The Auburn recruit was a member of the Voyager Media Prep Shootout.

In the spring, Capers was an All-SWSC performer in the Raiders track and field team. She was a sectional champion in the shot put with a throw of 38-feet, 2.75 inches. The put qualified her for the state meet, but she did not make the finals.

He was a starter on the basketball team and advanced to state in the 200-meter dash.

The rest of the finalists are:

PEREZ FORD A senior from Romeoville, Ford achieved a rare feat of qualifying for state in sprints and shot put during the track and field season. Ford medaled in the 200 after false starting in the 100.

On the football field he was a leading rusher and spent much of his time on defense. He is headed to Northern Illinois University for football.

JIMMY FRANKOS The gritty catcher was a

three-year starter for the Hawks’ baseball team. Maine South won nearly 80 games during his three seasons and captured a sectional title in 2010. In 2012, Frankos, who’ll play baseball at Iowa next year, batted in the No. 2 hole and helped the Hawks advance to the sectional championship game.

In addition, Frankos was part of two Maine South Class 8A title football teams and played H-back on the 2010 championship squad. Last fall, Frankos became one of quarterback Matt Alviti’s favorite receiving targets while

MATT KORAN The Joliet West senior rose to the top of a strong list of nominees, such as Lockport three-sport star Billy Reed and fellow Tiger Colin Shea, who played tennis and football.

Koran got the nod after making the Voyager Media Football All-Area team in the fall as one of the area’s best linebackers, earning him a nod to play next season at Harvard University.

In the winter, Koran was an SWSC champion wrestler and a state qualifier at 195 pounds.

In the spring, he batted .326 with 13 doubles, six home runs and 33 RBI as an All-Conference catcher.

JEAN PIETRZAK To say the Westmont junior was a busy young man this past high school season would be an understatement. On the gridiron, Pietrzak split his time playing wide receiver and quarterback.

Then the 6-5 junior went right into basketball, where he averaged 14 points and 7.3 rebounds per game while leading the Sentinels to a 17-13 record.

After that, it was onto the baseball diamond. Pietrzak was one of the Sentinels’ top starting pitchers while also playing infield. “He’s a real smooth, finesse player, and at 6-5, for a guy to handle the ball and shoot as well as he does, he’s got a lot of potential,”said Craig Etheridge, Pietrzak’s basketball coach.

Slammers, CrackerJacks have multiple All-Stars After posting four Frontier League All-Stars en route to winning the league title in the team’s first year of existence last year, the Joliet Slammers sent three All-Stars this year.

BASEBALL The game was played yesterday in Normal, IL. Representing Joliet were Abel Nieves, Amalio Diaz and Hector Pellot.

Nieves was selected as a starter in the outfield for the West Division while Diaz, the Slammers’ closer, was named to the pitching staff and Pellot is a reserve infielder.

Nieves, 26, has played every position for the Slammers this season except for center field, catcher and pitcher.He is currently hitting a team-leading .356 with four home runs and 25 RBI, while scoring 33 runs.

He played two years at Middle

Georgia College before being picked by the Angels in the 50th round of the 2004 draft. He played at the Triple-A level in 2010 before spending the 2011 season playing in his native Venezuela.

“I come out every day and work hard and get good results,” Nieves said. “It is all about being professional and come ready to work every day and now have guys going to the All-Stars.

Hopefully me and Hector get hits and Amalio makes some pitches and we represent well.”

Diaz has struck out 24 batters in 20.2 innings and has 10 saves on the season and a 2.61 ERA.The 25-year-old righty signed with the Angels out of Venezuela at the age of 18. Diaz reached the Double-A level and got promoted to Triple-A by the Angels in 2010.

“I feel amazing,” Diaz said. “I thank them for the opportunity to play here. I am happy that I am doing my job. When you go

to the All-Stars it shows that you are doing your job every time and being consistent.”

Pellot, 25, is currently hitting .294 with two home runs and 18 RBI. He has scored a team-leading 37 runs, hit a team-best 14 doubles and has drawn a team-high 31 walks.

“This is a great honor to be selected,”Pellot said.“It is awesome.

It is great to have the opportunity to represent this team in the AllStar game.”

Slammers manager Bart Zeller is happy with his trio.

“Abel Nieves is probably one of the few individuals I’ve ever coached that can play at a professional level at a multitude of positions. He comes to the park every day and gives 100 percent of his effort, and the results show,” Zeller said.“Diaz thrives on pressure situations, evidenced by his (10 saves in 11 chances). He works as hard as any pitcher on

our staff. Once again, hard work and determination have paid off for him by making the All-Star team.

“Hector was a major cog in last year’s championship team and he’s continued to play second base at a high level. He has contributed a very big part to any offense we’ve been able to generate this season.”

CRACKERJACKS The Midwest Collegiate League has announced its All-Stars and six members of the Will County CrackerJacks were on hand at Benedictine University Sports Complex in Lisle for the game Wednesday.

Pitchers Matt Borens, Ben Gullo and Jack Rogalla have each garnered All-Star accolades for their efforts during the first 25 games of the season.

Borens went 4-0 with a 2.16 ERA in his first six appearances. He made five starts and has allowed just 10 earned runs in his first 41.2 innings pitched. He has posted 33 strikeouts to just 13 walks.

Gullo has a 3-1 record and 2.01 ERA. In 40.1 innings, he

has allowed just 33 hits and nine earned runs,striking out 29 batters and walking only 19.

Rogalla has picked up two wins and a save in six appearances.

He leads the CrackerJacks in strikeouts with 38 and currently holds a 2.40 ERA. Position players Daniel Nevares, Michael Vilardo and Mitch Elliott are the three position players representing the CrackerJacks.

Nevares,Will County’s everyday shortstop, is tied for the team-lead in RBI (23), he leads the team in doubles (eight), is second on the team in hits (34) and runs scored (25) and has a .340 batting average.

Vilardo has a team-leading 14 stolen bases, a .330 batting average and his 20 RBI, which places him in a tie for third on the team.

Vilardo, Will County’s primary second baseman, leads the MCL in runs scored with 27.

Elliott, an outfielder, is second in the league in batting average (.382), tied for the team-lead in RBI (23) and leads the CrackerJacks in hits (39), at bats (102) and is second on the team in stolen bases (12). mark@buglenewspapers.com

Short course offers many challenges

By Scott Taylor Sports Editor

After getting beat up by the newly renovated Mistwood Golf Club, Mark Gregory and I decided to go to the other end of the spectrum and try to tackle a par three course.

There we found Zigfield Troy Golf Course in Woodridge, and while our confidence wasn’t restored, there were a lot of positives we took out of the course.

The biggest thing the course offers is a practice feel type environment. It is a relaxed atmosphere and offers players a good chance to get some practice in.

Obviously, as a par three course, if you like driving the ball and trying to crush it, this is not the place for you. However, if you want to get some work in on your short game or to see how your short game stacks up, this is the perfect place.

The course will test your shot making skills with a short iron and in and will really help you to know your distances for those clubs.There is little fairway around, so any missed shot will end up in the rough, although not too deep.

The longest hole on the scorecard is the third hole, which sits at 160 yards. Outside of that hole the others are 140 and in.

That means for most people anything longer than a five or six iron is unnecessary.

Unfortunately, I used nothing more than a wedge the whole round as tees were moved up and the longest hole was just 130 yards. It would be nice to see

If you like to play quick, that is possible too as two hacks like us played the course in an hour walking.

All in all, Zigfield Troy Golf Course offers a unique feel for little cost. It would be recommended for all skill levels, even those scratch golfers to see how many under they can get and to tune up their short game. It is a great, fun course for the intermediate players and for those young beginners. It is even a good course to take a friend or significant other out to because for the cost, it is fine to have them try to play for the first time without the pressure.

The big NASCAR news coming down the line lately is the facet that Matt Kenseth announced he is leaving his Ford of By Mark Gregory Roush-Fenway Racing for a big secret deal that he has in place, but can’t announce.

I think the only surprise would be if Kenseth is not driving a Toyota next year for Gibbs racing.

I don’t know about you guys, but watching a driver go to Toyota is like watching a baseball player go to the Yankees or a football player sign in Green Bay. I don’t care how much I liked them, I can’t anymore.

Call me old fashioned, call me a hater, its just how I am.

I was a fan of Clint Bowyer up until he headed over to drive for Michael Waltrip and Toyota.

He took No. 15, my favorite number, but I still can’t cheer for him anymore.

The only real question is whether Kenesth will take over the No. 20 car, currently run by Joey Logano or if Gibbs racing will add a fourth team to go with Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch.

I really don’t see a mildmannered Wisconsin boy like Kenseth fitting in with the trio of hot shots Gibbs has now.

I guess money talks.

some more variety in this aspect, but each hole is still unique, which requires different shotmaking.

The grass and rough was pretty dry, which isn’t surprising given the warm and dry conditions we’ve had, but the greens were in great shape and actually surprisingly slow.

While the course is for any skill level, it is an especially great place for beginners. In fact, we saw quite a few young kids out playing the course, including some for the first time. Thanks to the short distance of the course, it isn’t overly intimidating and the relaxed environment allows them to take their time and learn

the game while playing.

Perhaps the best feature of all though is the cheap rates. In the day and age of expensive golf, this allows you to play and enjoy the excitement for next to nothing.

Weekdays the fee is just $10 and on weekends it is $12. If you get there before nine, it is just $7.

Those under age 15 can get their golf for even cheaper and it is free for them from 7-750 a.m.

Mondays.

If you haven’t gotten your golf fix in after nine holes, you can replay the course for just $5.That is 18 holes of golf for $15! On top of that you can get range balls to start your day for just $2, making it a cheap day on the golf course.

Real Estate & Business

Let HR advise about an inappropriate boss all the options I now see. Will I get used to this?

A. Yup. As Oliver Wendell Holmes said, “The mind, once expanded to the dimensions of larger ideas, never returns to its original size.”

Q. I work for a manager who has an overbearing style, yells and swears.He’s in trouble with human resources because of his language.

He is particularly outrageous in referring to our female employees with sexual obscenities. I’m the team lead and afraid he’ll drag me into a lawsuit. I can’t sleep. How do I bring it up without putting my job in jeopardy?

A.Verbal abuse in the workplace is a hotly debated topic. Most human resources departments are trying to define what qualifies as “inappropriate” language.

Using sexual obscenities to refer to anyone at work does not fall into a gray area. Your boss is operating as if he is a verbal cowboy shooting

it out in the Wild West.

People who still use this language believe it falls under freedom of speech and think everyone else is a whimp.

Given your boss is already fighting HR, you talking to him directly is probably pointless.

Before you settle on a plan, consider your priorities. Anything you do may risk your job. If you do nothing, you risk your peace of mind.

If you take action, approach the most trustworthy person in HR,

ask if what you say is confidential and request counsel. Describe neutrally and specifically the language you have heard your boss use. Ask what HR would advise.

Make sure you get something in writing from them regarding their advice and what you have said.

By opening a case file between HR and yourself, you put yourself in a position in which it’s unlikely your boss could drag you into a legal tangle. You’ve already volunteered and documented that you object strongly to your boss’ behavior.

If you aren’t sleeping, you may also want to consult with an employment attorney just to make sure there isn’t any angle

where your boss may put you in jeopardy by his bad behavior.

Again, make sure you document what the attorney has said and provide HR with a copy.

If it’s any consolation, folks like your boss are dinosaurs, and organizations are slowly dealing with them because they don’t want unnecessary lawsuits. I know it’s tempting to confront your boss but you’d hit his screen like a mosquito on a windshield.

To protect your job and address the problem, let HR set limits your boss.

Antibiotics: To treat or not to treat?

Any doctor will tell you that the most f r e q u e n t disagreement we have with patients i n v o l v e s the use of antibiotics. The doctor knows he’s in trouble when the patient states,“I know what I need,” or,“I need something strong to knock this out,” or the most common, “I won’t get better without an antibiotic.” I doubt that I have ever converted but a handful of patients so convinced of the need of antibiotics that they would survive without them. This is not to say that these medications do not have a profoundly important place in treating infections, but it is a place, it’s not everywhere.

Perhaps reviewing bacteria’s place in our world, and what antibiotics do to them may help.

Bacteria are an important thread in the web of life. Without them life on this planet falls apart. You might say, “A place in the world is fine, but not in my body or on my skin.” Not

true! There are more bacteria on and inside your body than there are cells in your body.You cannot live without them. Bacteria manufacture many important chemicals that are crucial to your survival. Their presence in certain locations helps to keep bad bacteria and other “germs” such as fungus from getting in. They protect your mouth, vagina, and colon in this fashion.

Most antibiotics work by killing bacteria, but they tend to do so indiscriminately. They kill the good bacteria as well as the bad bacteria. This allows other more resistant types to move into areas vacated by the eliminated good bacteria and may lead to oral and vaginal yeast infections and to diarrhea.

Antibiotics rarely destroy all of the infecting bacteria. They eliminate a high proportion but not all of the intruders. The few remaining bacteria are then eliminated by your body’s own immune systems. This has two important implications. The first is that it can give rise to resistant forms in your body. This is why you are advised to finish all of your prescriptions and to

take them as scheduled. Thus, existing bacteria has less of a chance to survive and grow.This first implication gives rise to the second: development of multidrug resistance. These are the so-called “Superbugs” that resist all but a very few antibiotics.

Some bacteria develop resistance faster than others. They can actually thrive in conditions where “normal bacteria” cannot.

Examples include places where there are a lot of antibiotics such as hospitals and nursing homes. These Superbugs are becoming a major problem in hospitals. They have names like MRSA or VRE. One such bacterium, Clostridium Difficle, is now a major cause of diarrhea in hospitalized patients. If you visit a friend or loved one who is hospitalized you will notice that all hospital personnel wear plastic gowns and gloves when in certain rooms. These are rooms where the patient has been found to have one of these Superbugs. The gowns and gloves are worn to help eliminate the spread of bacteria between patients. One method to combat them is our continuing search for better antibiotics: an

antibiotic arms race. But will we always be able to stay ahead in this race? A second, perhaps better strategy is to slow down the race. Use fewer antibiotics so less resistance develops.

If your doctor does not want to give you an antibiotic, there are two very good reasons for this decision.You may hurt more than help yourself, and you may hurt mankind by promoting resistant strains.

Doctor’s RX: Use antibiotics wisely. If you have a common cold, upper respiratory symptoms or sore throat without a fever, you have a virus and antibiotics won’t help you.

For other infections, see your doctor. If he defers the use of antibiotics, follow this advice.To pursue their use may do you – and the rest of us - more harm than good.

Cats susceptible to dehydration This summer’s long spell of hot, dry weather instinctively makes us crave water to quench our parched palates. Many medical professionals advise their patients to drink more water especially during these extreme conditions and we are likely to be already a bit dehydrated before we look for the water fountain. As a veterinarian I find that many of my four-legged patients are slightly dehydrated as well. Cats have a high thirst threshold due to the fact they were originally a desert-based species. That is, modern cats must be very thirsty before they go to a water bowl because ages ago they absorbed most of their liquids from their prey. Cats are not naturally inclined to drink water.

As a result, since many cats are fed a dry diet they are more likely to be chronically slightly dehydrated.

Changing to canned food is closer to a cat’s natural diet, but that’s a topic for a future column.

My practice sees many cats that are lethargic, not feeling well and

losing weight.

Often while I’m obtaining the cat’s medical history the wellintentioned pet owner notes that the cat has been consuming an excessive amount of water.Another common observation is more urine in the litter box than usual. Many times these cats have been showing these signs for a long time and are sickly when they are finally brought to my facility. I know these owners are doing the best they can, but I want to take this opportunity to remind all cat owners that one of the common signals that indicate a medical problem is polyuria (increased urination) and polydipsia (increased water consumption).

In cats, especially older cats, there are three very common causes for being polyuric (or PU) and polydipsic (PD). First, there is

chronic renal insufficiency. This is usually an age-related degeneration of the kidneys. Approximately one third of all cats at 15 years of age are showing some blood value changes related to kidney disease.

Usually these cats are feeling perfectly normal, but are actually PU/PD. Next, diabetes mellitus is another condition that affects the cat’s thirst. Just like other conditions I discussed, cats with diabetes mellitus are urinating more, and thus drinking more to keep up with the output.There are different causes of diabetes but many times if it is caught early and treated aggressively cats have a greater chance of their condition going into remission.

Lastly, a condition called hyperthyroidism is common in older cats. These cats are often PU/PD. Strangely enough, just as in diabetes these cats are actually eating more than normal and still losing weight. A benign tumor in the thyroid gland is likely the

cause of an increased metabolism and results in the body’s systems working overtime.

A common theme of this month’s column is that all of these conditions can demonstrate the same signs: PU/PD and weight loss. But the main point should be clearly understood: All of these conditions are common and can be more effectively managed if the symptoms are caught early and the patient is diagnosed at the beginning stages in the course of the condition. If your cat is displaying excessive eating, drinking and/ or weight loss bring it to your veterinarian as soon as possible for a thorough examination.
