DREAMERS

Romeoville celebrates immigrant contributions By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

DREAMers. For most immigrants, it is about the promise of a better life and an opportunity—the American Dream. This past Saturday, July 21, was a day for them and for all immigrants who took part in the celebratory Day of the Immigrant 2013—Sharing our American Dream. Local dignitaries, residents and members of all cultures from throughout the southwest suburbs came out to Deer Crossing Park in Romeoville to See IMMIGRANT, page 4

Romeoville family works to ‘Find a Cure’ for daughter’s rare condition Ever since Romeoville resident Bernadette Hreska’s daughter was diagnosed with Vanishing White Matter (VWM) three years ago-at the age of four, she and her family have been on a quest to find a cure for the rare, devastating condition that destroys the brain’s white matter. With so little known about this progressive disease, the family is now working with a researcher from Tel Aviv University specializing in VWM research to raise funds toward developing a cure. VWM is a chronic and progressive disease resulting in the loss of motor skills, loss of vision, epileptic seizures, vomiting, irritability, depressed consciousness and finally coma. There are only 200 known cases of VWM in the world. Currently, there is no cure or treatment for the disease.

Life expectancy of a child diagnosed with this disease is only into the early teens. Very few physicians know about VWM, and even fewer scientists are studying it. The process of finding a cure is very tedious and expensive, and consists of several phases. Currently, there is no major funding dedicated to VWM research. This Sunday, July 21, the family is hosting a fundraiser event – “Find a Cure for VWM” – with Tel Aviv University Professor Orna Elroy-Stein, who is one of the few researchers in the world studying VWM. Proceeds from the event will go toward her research and drug development project. “In my lab’s most recent study on Vanishing White Matter, we were able to cure the lab mice of the affliction by down-regulating the expression of another

gene,” said Professor ElroyStein, who is leading the VWM research at Tel Aviv University. “This discovery has opened the door to new therapeutic strategies, and since VWM is so rare, raising awareness of the disease is more important now than ever before.” To make a tax-deductible donation to support Professor Orna Elroy-Stein’s research, click here and type “VWM” in designation “Other.” Checks can also be made payable to American Friends of Tel Aviv University, and sent to 9715 Woods Drive, Unit 1608, Skokie, ILL 60077, attn: “Rick Kruger/Orna Research for VWM.” For more information on the event, check out <https:// www.facebook.com/events /577017348993761/?directe d_target_id=0>

IMMIGRANT Continued from page 1 celebrate their contributions and their culture. The event was sponsored by the Southwest Suburban Immigrant Project (SSIP). The event is designed to empower the voices of immigrant population living in the southwest suburbs. The Day of the Immigrant brings awareness to the need of immigrant reform and celebrates the contributions and success stories of immigrant neighbors. “This event means a lot to immigrant families in the area, because it showcases the work they do in their community, and it highlights the need for immigration reform through the testimonies and the program with the elected officials,” said organizer Jose Vera. The SSIP recognized individuals such as 82-year-old Rachel Cordero, who dedicated her life to helping immigrants, forming the first ESL program and founding Future Heritage Organization in Bolingbrook. A tearful Carmen Castillo presented the award to Cordero, thanking her for teaching her the English language, opening a new world to her. The Day of the Immigrant has been held in Naperville in 2010 and in Bolingbrook in 2012. The event is growing:This year, the day stretched into evening, marking a historic time with an immigration reform bill moving through Congress.The DREAM Act (acronym for Development,

Relief, and Education for Alien Minors) is an American legislative proposal, S.1291, first introduced in the Senate on Aug. 1, 2001. “The Senate has already passed a bill, and now all eyes are in the House of Representatives,” said Vera. “The general spirit and theme of the event remain which is

to celebrate the contributions of immigrants to the suburban communities, and this years special theme is “Sharing our American Dream” just to highlight the importance of immigration reform.”

U.S Rep. Bill Foster, D-Naperville, spoke to the crowd echoing the comments of the participants, acknowledging this as a time of great importance for immigrant reform.

“This is an issue that cannot be ignored any longer,” said Foster, who added that one of his proudest votes was for the Dreamers Act, knowing first hand the difficulty encountered by immigrants taking his wife’s, an Asian immigrant, into account. “As a scientist and as a businessman, I know how valuable immigrants are—more than one fourth of all U.S. small businesses were opened by immigrants.The Senate bill is not perfect, but it is a start. At least we can push a fast track for our Dreamers.” According to the Immigration Policy Center, there are roughly 1.8 million immigrants in the United States who might be, or might become, eligible for the Obama Administration’s “deferred action” initiative for unauthorized youth brought to this country as children.This initiative, announced on June 15, offers a two-year, renewable reprieve from deportation to unauthorized immigrants who are under 31; entered the United States before age 16; have lived continuously in the country for at least five years; have not been convicted of a felony, a “significant” misdemeanor, or three other misdemeanors; and are currently in school, graduated from high school, earned a GED, or served in the military. The SSIP has worked in various facets, this year alone helping 200 people become citizens; developing a peer mentoring group in Bolingbrook schools and organizing 300 full buses to rally in both Chicago and Washington, D.C.

Joliet Junior College plans to expand its Romeoville campus.

JJC to expand Romeoville campus as priority project By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

After re-evaluating its master plan and considering the growth in the area, Joliet Junior College plans to expand its Romeoville campus, one of two of its priority projects, including the construction of a multipurpose facility on its main campus in Joliet. The Joliet Junior College Board of Trustees adopted a resolution of intent to issue $45 million in bonds to fund both priority projects outlined in the updated 2013 JJC Master Plan. These alternate revenue bonds would be supported by students through capital assessment fees and be based on a per credit hour rate. According to Kelly Rohder, director of communications for JJC, the current fee is $17. If the board approves this as a funding strategy for these projects at its July 30 meeting, that fee will increase by $4, and the projects will move forward. Students now spend approximately $107 per credit hour. The earliest the fee would go into effect would be September 2014. “A major goal of the Board of Trustees is to have JJC be the first choice of high school seniors when they choose a college,” said Board Chairman Andy Mihelich. “To realize

this goal, JJC needs to address all aspects of a student’s development. Our plans for the multipurpose center and expansion of our Romeoville Campus will greatly help us be a better, more comprehensive community college whose focus is student learning.” The board has considered multiple financing plans during the past six months, and in April, trustees approved a master plan update, completed by Legat Architects. The 2013 Master Plan Update reconsiders 2008 master plan projects not yet implemented, examines new projects, and recommends priorities that respond to various challenges facing the college in the future. Expansion of the Romeoville Campus—built in 1993—is a top priority for the college, with its enrollment topping out at 4,000 students and continuing to grow.The master plan calls for additional space for academic programs and student development services to respond to this growth. “The Romeoville and Bolingbrook areas are the fastest-growing communities for us, with enrollment increasing by 45 percent, making it a priority for us,” said Rohder.“We want to strengthen the services they need.” An executive summary of the plan shows the 40-acre site at the Romeoville campus

Expansion of the Romeoville Campus—built in 1993—is a top priority for the college.

will more than adequately accommodate the needed academic addition(s) to the west of the existing one-story building, as well as an addition to the east for new student development space. While the existing parking capacity is currently meeting the needs of this location, both parking lots could easily be expanded to the west for future capacity needs, according to the plan. The multipurpose facility

was included in the college’s 2008 master plan, but not implemented. This building, planned for construction on the south side of the college’s main campus on Houbolt Road, is envisioned to include athletics, physical education,

and conference center and corporate training space. The first step in the process is to pass the bond issue. Once complete, a planning committee to discuss the process will be formed and timeframe established.

Homework policy eyed by Valley View School Board By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

How much weight a student’s homework carries came under much discussion at the past Valley View School District 365u meeting, with new board member Debbie Sykora questioning the district’s 90/10 grading policy.

The policy change came in 2011 and means 90 percent of students’ grades are determined from testing and demonstrated mastery of course material. The other 10 percent comes from class participation, homework assignments, attitude and behavior. Sykora brought the matter to the board for reconsideration after

hearing from some teachers who disagree with the policy. They told her the nature of the policy has students turning in less homework and not benefiting from the practice of skills that homework intends. Board member Rick Gougis defended the policy, citing various data reports that indicate homework counts for very little

in a student’s success, noting research that shows homework did not improve student scores. Superintendent James Mitchem said the policy is meant to have students be graded on content mastery and not compliance issues. In other words, at the end of the day, if the student can score well on a test and knows the material, whether or not the student completed the homework should not come into play when deciding his or her overall grade. A student’s grade would then be primarily reflect the student’s mastery of the academic curriculum of a given course. As a teacher herself, Sykora drove home the point that students need the discipline of practicing with homework and called on the administration to conduct a teacher’s survey to

gauge how well the 90/10 policy is working in the classroom. Mitchem indicated he would be reluctant to do so,suggesting years of data prove the 90/10 policy works. He said it would not be prudent to step away from the policy because it is not in the practice of how teachers were used to doing things. After much philosophical debate over the matter, Board Member Liz Campbell suggested the issue boil down to how students perceive the importance of homework, and that this should be addressed. School Board President Steve Quigley suggested a public workshop meeting to discuss the matter.A date has not been decided as of yet. However, a question and answer transcript between Sykora and Mitchem will be posted on the district’s website, www.vvsd.org.

Spartans ready to make a return to winning ways Mark Gregory Sports Reporter

Last season, the Romeoville football team suffered its thirdstraight losing season, going 0-9. However, sixth-year coach Jeff Kuna said the team responded well in the offseason. “The positive light of us going 0-9 last year is that the kids took it the right way,” Kuna said.“They didn’t sulk about it. Right after the last game, they realized they could do something about it … They took an initiative and took it upon themselves and started their offseason weight lifting immediately that next week, and they were pretty relentless in their workouts. We were real happy about that.” With only three seniors who played significant minutes last season, Kuna is excited about the opening of the season. “I am real excited about our group,” he said. “I think we are bigger and stronger than last year. The last four or five games last year, the players who were making the plays were kids who are coming back. We only legitimately played three seniors last year.”

Junior Kelvin Jones played on varsity early in the season last year. While he ended the season with the sophomore team, he will be the starting quarterback for the Spartans this year. “We are bigger and stronger than we ever have been, and we built an offense around that,” Kuna said. “We are not a spread team anymore. Anyone who watches our 7-on-7s can see that. We are back running a power game and running the ball. Kelvin is a big, strong kid back there, and we have him in a manageable, run offense where he has easy ready and throws, but he has the big arm if we need it.” Defensively, the Spartans are paced by Anthony Love, the top collegiate recruit for Romeoville. He is being recruited by several Mid-American Conference schools, as well as Eastern Illinois and Missouri. He currently has offers from North Dakota and South Dakota. “We moved him to defensive end at the end of last year, and he played well there without being thoroughly coached,” Kuna said. See RETURN, page 16

James Hylton made his final ARCA race at Chicagoland Speedway July 21, just days before his 79th birthday. He will retire at the end of the season.

Hylton races in Joliet for one final time By Mark Gregory Sports Reporter

When racing fans think of the No. 48 car, the first name to come to mind is Jimmie Johnson, driver of the Lowes Chevy and winner of five consecutive Cup titles. However, prior to Johnson taking over the number, it was run by James Hylton, who raced on the NASCAR circuit from 19661993, making 602 starts, nearly 200 more than Johnson has made

thus far in his career. While Hylton left NASCAR in 1993, he has continued to race in the ARCA series and at the age of 78, he is retiring after this season. “I will be 79 years old Aug. 26 and I have had my run,” Hylton said. “I have won my races, I had over 600 NASCAR starts and at this point, I don’t see any more reason to extend it. I want to do something else in life. I’m not planning on passing away at 80, but this is a very strenuous sport.

You have to watch your diet, exercise and keep yourself in shape and I have done that since I started racing back in the late 50s. As they say, the old machine is wearing out and before I can’t get around anymore there are some things I want to add to my life.” Hylton holds several distinct honors as a driver. In 1966, Hylton was NASCAR See HYLTON, page 16

HYLTON Continued from page 14 Rookie of the Year, finishing second in driver points, still the best finish ever by a first year Cup driver. After racing in the Nationwide and NASCAR truck series in 2011, he became the oldest driver to race in all three of NASCAR’s highest divisions, a record he owns in ARCA too. He made his 750th career professional stock car start at

Pocono last August. “I have never done anything but race since I was a professional at 18,” Hylton said. “I have never held down a public job. I know nothing but racing. I am going to miss it severely at the end of the year. I am only done as a driver, I will still be around racing and might put a team together with a teenage driver.” During his NASCAR Cup career, Hylton finished in the top-10 in Cup points 10 times, winning twice, in 1970 at Richmond and in 1972 at Talladega.

Sports His win at Richmond was not only his first win, but also his favorite moment in racing. “I figure at my age I can brag a bit, so my most memorable experience is when I won the Richmond race in 1970 and I beat Richard Petty by 15 and a half seconds,” Hylton said. “That was when they ran 500 laps at Richmond and before power steering so you had to be tough to do that. To take away one of Richard Petty’s wins, I brag about that. I am one of his biggest fans and I realize he is the King, but I

beat the King once.” Hylton made his final race in Joliet last weekend at the Ansell ActivArmr 150 at Chicagoland Speedway. Hylton finished 17th in the race. He said he has enjoyed racing over the years at Chicagoland. “That is one of my favorite race tracks,” Hylton said.“We have had some good runs there. It is a good race track and good fans and I have met a lot of friends there.” mark@buglenewspapers.com Follow @2Mark_My_Words

Now, we have had the whole summer to train him and teach him, and he has had time to work at the position. He is one of those players that if he doesn’t make the play the first time, he is such an athlete that he can track plays down on the back side and make plays.” The Spartans open the season Aug. 30 at home against Hinsdale South before making a short trip across the district to face Bolingbrook Sept. 6.

A severely elevated tee box can make the par-3 eighth hole a difficult shot. Mark Gregory/bugle staff

Downers Grove Golf Club makes you want more The Downers Grove Golf Club makes you leave wanting more. T h a t ’ s because the original site of America’s first 18-hole golf course is now nine holes. And, it is nine unique holes that you wish were 18 or even 27 holes. Before I dive into the holes, the history of the course is rather interesting. It was established on the site in 1892 as the Chicago Golf Club. The course began as a ninehole course and expanded to 18 holes the next year. It was one of the five founding clubs of the United States Golf Association. The following year the Chicago Golf Club relocated in Wheaton

and soon after the club moved back to nine holes. While there have been changes to the course, there are still several original holes, Nos. 2, 4, 7, 8 and 9. The Downers Grove Golf Club offers a variety of tee boxes, as well as tees. The longest tees are the blues, which play to 3,280 yards. Next are the whites, which are at 3,041. The Gold is at 2,782 and the Red is 2,515. It all starts off with a hilly first hole, a preview of what is to come throughout the round. It is a rather intimidating hole for the opener, and fairly long from the whites at 398 yards. The second hole was the most difficult one of the day for both Mark Gregory and myself. It is a 394-yard par-4 with a creek and swamp to the right as well as in the middle of the fairway. I found the water twice on the hole. A par-5 was next, with the

water to the right, but not long at all, playing just 425 yards from the white. However, it is uphill and, as is the case on all the holes, there are trees stopping a wayward drive off the fairway. The fourth hole is a sharp dogleg left and is followed by another dogleg left, both short par-4s. They are totally different holes though. After facing trees on the dogleg on the fourth, there really is no actual dogleg on the fifth. However, there are bunkers in the middle of the fairway, making the average hitter either lay up or play to the right, making it a dogleg.There is also a swamp to the right to add to the difficulty. If you are able to hit the fairway with a driver, it is a birdie hole. There is finally a par-3 at the sixth hole. It is fairly long at 163 yards and faces water on the right with bunkers covering the green.

The seventh hole seems like an easy and straight par-4, but it is rather tight and is important to find the fairway. The eighth hole is a par-3 that plays 184 yards from the white! It is a tough hole due to the distance from the white, but the special blue tees that are sometimes found on a cliff to the left makes the hole even harder and its signature. The ninth hole isn’t overly difficult as a par-5, with water to the left but plays at only 449 from the blue. There were plenty of positives about the course. Each hole was unique, making you feel like you are playing a different course each time, with the same feel of the course though with the slopes and the trees. Despite the lack of recent rain, the course was in excellent shape, still green on both the

fairways and the greens and the greens were smooth. The tee boxes were very impressive as well as you could hardly find a divot. Even the workers there were friendly, from the clubhouse to the ranger and starter. The ranger had a cooler of ice with him to help the guests stay cool in the 95-degree heat. It is hard to find a flaw with the course, but since I do, it would have to be the fact that it isn’t 18 holes. The greens fees are even fair, at just $19 for nine holes and $9 for a cart on weekdays. This is a highly recommended course, especially when you are looking to play a quick nine. For us it was very quick as the heat kept people away and we were able to play in an hour-and-a-half. Follow Scott @Taylor_Sports staylor@buglenewspapers.com

HOME Continued from page 15 or seven months is really cool. Any time you can come home is great. It is great that I am not too far away, and I can go home to see friends and family.” She is not the first of her family to enjoy local success. Her brother, Ryan, the career saves leader for the Joliet Slammers, is now in the San Diego Padres system after pitching with the Slammers during its Frontier League Championship season in 2011. Her sister, Sam, who also played at DePaul, enjoyed her first season as head women’s basketball coach at the University of St. Francis last year. Pat Quigley, their dad, played at USF and has the court at the Sullivan Center named for him. “We are really lucky and blessed that our parents worked so hard for us when we were younger and took us places

and showed us that we can do anything we wanted,” Allie said. She graduated from DePaul University as one of only four players in Blue Demons’ history to score more 2,000 points (2,078), fourth all-time in DePaul history. Allie was drafted in the second round of the 2008 WNBA draft by the Seattle Storm. After being waived by the Storm, Quigley signed with Phoenix three days later and made her professional debut with the Mercury. In between WNBA seasons, she made her European debut, starting for Mersin in Turkey’s TBBL, averaging 12.6 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.5 steals per game, shooting 47.4 percent from the floor and hitting 44.1 percent from beyond the 3-point arc. In 2009, she made six appearances for the Mercury and was waived July 14. In 2010, Quigley played in four games with the Indiana Fever and three with the San Antonio

Sports Silver Stars. In 2009-10, Quigley played MiZo Pecs of Hungary, averaging 7.9 points, 2.8 rebounds and 0.9 steals per game in 13 EuroLeague games. In Hungary’s A League, she averaged 12.6 points per game, shooting 54.5 percent from the floor and 48.3 percent from 3-point range. In 2011, she signed back with the Storm to a seven-day contract on Aug. 1 and saw action in seven games, including Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinal series against Phoenix. “It is a lot of hard work,” Quigley said. “There are a lot of ups and downs, especially for someone in my position who is not playing a lot of minutes and moving between teams. It is all hard work and never giving up. I just remember being overseas and working extra hard and always thinking about coming and playing (in the WNBA) and making an impact. “I am playing because I love

the game. It is great to be able to go see so much overseas and then come back here and play at the highest level.” This year, Quigley is enjoying her best points per game season in the WNBA, averaging 5.4. While her minutes vary from game to game, Quigley takes pride in being successful no matter how many minutes she plays. In the Sky’s last game, an 89-85 win over Washington, she tallied six points, a blocked shot and an assist in only four minutes. “You just get used to it,” Quigley said of her reserve role. “I have been doing this for a while, so I know that some games you might see 20 minutes and some a lot fewer. I just have to stay warm on the bench and be ready to go when you get in there. “Whenever I get in there, I want to make an impact, whether it is hitting a big shot, grabbing a rebound or making a stop and not letting my person

beat me.” Quigley credits her experiences and her Sky coach Pokey Chatman as reasons she is able to perform even in minimal minutes. “You get a little bit older and more comfortable and experienced, and Pokey does a great job of instilling confidence in us and making sure we play relaxed and free,” she said. Currently, the Sky sit at 9-4, 1.5 games behind Atlanta in the Eastern Conference. Chicago is a collective 89-149 since their inception in 2006. With star rookie Elena Delle Donne, the Sky look to make a run at the postseason. “I know this team has been up and down the last couple years, and I know the playoffs are really a big goal for everyone,” Quigley said. “It is even better when everyone is a good person, and we all enjoy being around each other.” mark@buglenewspapers.com Follow @2Mark_My_Words

Logano wins at Chicagoland Speedway By Jerry Bonkowski Special to NASCAR Wire Service

Some drivers take a vacation on an off week from the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, go to the beach, play golf or just take it easy. Not Joey Logano. Instead of relaxing on the final off-weekend for the Sprint Cup Series, he decided to race in Sunday’s NASCAR Nationwide Series STP 300 at Chicagoland Speedway. It was a wise move on Logano’s part, as he took the lead on the final restart and led the final 15 laps to win his second NNS race of the season. His other win was June 1 at Dover International Speedway. “I was okay doing nothing on the off-weekend, but you can’t say no to RP (team owner Roger Penske),” Logano said with a

laugh. “At the start of the race, I thought we had a third-place car, but we made some adjustments and got it a lot better,” Logano said. Race leader Sam Hornish Jr. and Penkse Racing teammate Logano battled hard on the final restart, with Logano finally storming past Hornish coming out of Turn 2 on Lap 186 and never looked back. “That was a big momentum switch for us after two bad races last weekend at New Hampshire,” Logano said. “We’re looking forward to getting to Indianapolis next weekend, we’ll be running both races and hopefully we can get some momentum from this win going forward there.” Hornish finished second, followed by Austin Dillon, Elliott Sadler and Brian Vickers.

Joey Logano celebrates in Victory Lane following his win in the STP 300 at Chicagoland Speedway on July 21, 2013 in Joliet.

“We would have liked to win, but you can’t complain too much with it being a 1-2 Penske finish, it was a really good thing,” Hornish said. More importantly for Hornish, he regained the lead in the Nationwide Series points standings, passing former leader Regan Smith. Hornish now leads Smith by seven points. “We’ve gone from being 58 points behind after Michigan

to seven ahead,” Hornish said. “What we do now is try to figure out where to go from here.” Sadler dominated early in the race from the Coors Light Pole, but struggled at the end. Still, finishing fourth was a shot in the arm, especially after being wrecked out late in last Saturday’s NNS race at New Hampshire. “(We) should have been in victory lane, but I tried to be too greedy and keep my car too low

and it bit us there at the end,” Sadler said. “We’ll have to take what it gave us, fourth-place and we’ll go on to Indy.” The only driver in the top 10 who changed position in the standings was Allgaier, who dropped from fourth to fifth in the standings.

The King of Beers will continue its rich tradition in the sport by joining Kevin Harvick as he moves to Stewart-Haas Racing in 2014 to drive the No. 4 Chevrolet SS in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. “Over the last three years, Kevin has been an amazing ambassador for Budweiser, both on and off the track,” said Blaise D’Sylva, vice president of media, sports and entertainment marketing, Anheuser-Busch.“We value that level of commitment, and we’re proud to join him at Stewart-Haas Racing next season.” Under the terms of the deal, Budweiser will serve as primary sponsor of the No. 4 Chevrolet for 20 races as well as the Budweiser Duel during Budweiser Speedweeks at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway. Budweiser will serve as a major associate sponsor for the remaining races on the Sprint Cup Series schedule. “I’ve developed a great relationship with so many people at Budweiser and am very happy it’s an association that will continue for many years to come,” said Harvick, who has represented Budweiser since 2011. “We’ve enjoyed a lot of success together and our expectations match right up with those of Stewart-Haas Racing.”

Brilliant interview questions for prospective hires Q. I am being asked to do more and more hiring of new employees for my team. We have a standard set of interview questions, but people don’t always tell the truth. Especially when it comes to interpersonal skills, I have trouble screening for quality people. Are there any brilliant interview questions that reveal the personality I’m about to hire? A.Yes, you can ask questions where people who are difficult to work with will chose to ask for pity rather than take responsibility. People who have poor communication skills generally have had bad experiences in many jobs.The problem is they don’t see the common denominator is them. An excellent question to ask job candidates is whether they have experienced good fortune or whether they have ended up in unfair circumstances. People

who are accountable will not use the interview to whine about how mean everyone has been to them. Another smart inquiry during interviews is to ask about any behavior they feel past bosses, teachers or managers did that created problems for them. Again, an employee you don’t want to hire will leap at the chance to enlighten you about what a victim they’ve been. Even people who are more responsible will end up telling you areas where they are touchy. If you have a stellar candidate who complains about managers being condescending, you’ll now have a chance to weigh out his genius against this chip on his shoulder. Surprisingly, people who are irresponsible don’t see an issue in using an interview to complain. Prospective hires who use the interview as a therapy session to vent about

bad experiences are about to see you as the next perpetrator of their misery. As much as you think you’re a caring and competent manager, anyone who tells you repeated bad experiences will see you through a negative lens. People tend to pack up their bag of troubles and cart them to their new manager. Unfortunately, they don’t see that their behavior is generating the same negative reaction in their new employer. Anytime your pity button is getting pushed during an interview beware.There is excellent research on psychopaths that indicate the main way they manipulate people is by fishing for

sympathy. People who use others know that most people are vulnerable to poor decision making when they feel sorry for others. What you want to see during an interview is multiple aspects of accountability. If they had a problem, they found a solution. If they had difficult circumstances, they coped or changed their behavior. You want employees that experience low drama in their interpersonal relationships because they don’t create emotional chaos in people around them. Remember when you are bringing someone new on your team, you can train for technical skills but you are stuck with the personality of your new employee. If you don’t take the opportunity to realistically evaluate the emotional wellness of a new hire, you may find yourself dreading Monday morning. Effective managers know they’ll never “coach” a

difficult employee into a new character. Hiring people who see themselves as responsible, resilient and resourceful is a gift that keeps giving.

The last word(s) Q. I work with a guy who is always unhappy. I keep trying to get on his good side but am getting nowhere. Is there a way to win him over? A. No, focus on your own effectiveness and not your coworker’s approval. As Ben Franklin observed,“A quarrelsome man has no good neighbors.”

News Stanley Cup coming to Bolingbrook Golf Club By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

Chicago Blackhawks fans will once again get a chance to see the Stanley Cup and help out a charity at the same time. Bolingbrook resident Tony Ommen, who is the senior director of team services for the Blackhawks, brought the Stanley Cup to Bolingbrook in 2010 and is doing the same this year. From noon to 2 p.m., Thursday, July 25 for $20 fans can take a professional photo with the Stanley Cup in the Reagan Ballroom at the Bolingbrook Golf Club, 2001 Rodeo Drive.

All proceeds will benefit St. Baldricks for cancer research and Heart Haven Outreach, (H2O) a local organization dedicated to serving youth. “We are extremely honored and thankful to Tony Ommen for the opportunity to display the Stanley Cup here,” said Bolingbrook Golf Club General Manager Randy Farber. “It is a fantastic opportunity and one that benefits local charities.” The Golf Club will not make any profit from the event. A professional photographer will take a photo for online retrieval. The club expects an average of 3,000 people to attend.
