New program will promote alcohol moderation Chase Myers | @chasemyers_DE

of Children and Family Services. Plus, he told the Journal-Register, his own situation with the state government isn’t completely resolved: Scheina retired three years ago after a 25year career in state government. Most of that time he worked at DCFS. He said that during his career he’s held positions that were both union and non-union.

“I think it’s important that the retirees also understand that these negotiations have an impact on their future also,” Scheina added.

“Our medical and dental and vision care benefits could still be on the table.”

Four out of five college students drink alcohol and of those who do, half consume alcohol through binge drinking, according to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.

With the help of a $30,000 NCAA Choices Alcohol Education grant, the new SalukiChoices program, a collaboration between the Student Health Services, Saluki Athletics and the Department of Health Education and Recreation, plans on informing the student body of the dangers of alcohol abuse.

The grant will fund a number of videos, social media usage and other outlets for getting the message across, Dawn Null, wellness coordinator for Student Health Services, said.

“The purpose of the SalukiChoices program is to create positive change on campus by fostering harmreduction behavior,” Null said in an email. “We hope to reduce the number of SIU students who misuse alcohol, thus enabling students to flourish academically, personally and professionally.”

While discouraging alcohol consumption altogether seems unpractical, SalukiChoices focuses on moderate use of alcohol against binge consumption, she said.

“Abstinence from alcohol is simply not realistic on a college campus,” Null said. “Wellness takes a harm reduction approach. Harm reduction simply means that we try and meet a student where they are in terms of alcohol use or misuse and educate and encourage that student to move toward safer behaviors.”

Although the grant is not one of the larger sums the university has received, it is still sizable and will ensure harm reduction programs without using student dollars, she said.

The Student Health Center worked in tangent with Saluki Athletics when constructing a grant proposal for the grant, Kathy Jones, senior associate athletic director, said.

“We sat down and looked at the best practices in terms of grant proposals that had been approved,” Jones said.

“We then brainstormed ideas about what we thought would work on this campus. It has to be a whole campus effort, but it has to include student athletes as a component.”

She said the amount of drinking, drunk driving and negative outcomes of drinking are large issues on SIU’s campus, as well as other campuses.

“Data shows students tend to think that everybody else is drinking more than they really are and they sort of drink to keep up, so part of it is to get out the message that there are a lot of people that aren’t drinking,” she said.

“There are other ways to have fun.”

The anaconda was the smaller of the anacondas owned by Serengeti Steve, who said only the girls get big. “I feed the big one bacon … whole bacon” he said. Anacondas, the largest snakes in the world, can grow up to be about 20 feet long and 550 pounds. Other animals were put on display such as a tarantula, an alligator, a few types of lizards and a scorpion.

Rauner administration could call in National Guard, retired workers to fill positions in possible worker strike Caitlin Wilson | Reboot Illinois Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner and his aides are eyeing the end of the month-long American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees contract extension with caution.

If a new contract agreement isn’t reached by July 31, the union could choose to strike and leave state government, already operating with no budget, with considerably fewer employees.

As a final stopgap, the governor’s office has been calling retired state workers to ask if they would be willing to return to their old jobs if the current workers strike, the State

Journal-Register reports. And the Illinois National Guard could be called in to fill in empty positions, says Statehouse Bureau Chief Kurt Erickson of Lee Enterprises.

Both measures are seen as crisis-averting by the Rauner administration, but are receiving some push back from the very people asked to help.

The Journal-Register reports that calls from government offices, asking former state workers to resume their old posts, have received mixed reactions. One man, David Scheina, said that he was “appalled” to be asked to “cross a potential picket line” and go back to his job at the Department

Some students have mixed feelings about the initiative considering it is on a college campus.

“I think it might work,” Brenton Harris, a senior from Tuscola studying zoology, said.

RAUNER CONTINUED FROM

Based on a conversation with another retiree who was contacted, the Journal-Register reports that the former workers are being asked to come back on a 75-day temporary basis to cover essential positions if the current workers strike, and that others are discussing the request on a retiree Facebook page.

Rauner spokesperson Catherine Kelly said the administration is “actively pursuing all options” to make sure Illinoisans don’t see a lapse in government service, but AFSCME said the governor really is doing the opposite by refusing to agree to an extended temporary contract while they continue to negotiate a new permanent contract. Kelly says the administration is not ready to agree to AFSCME”s terms.

From the Journal Register: AFSCME said the fact the administration is contacting retirees about returning to work “is the smoking gun that shows Gov. Rauner is seeking to cause a crisis.”

“I mean maybe $30,000 isn’t that much in the grand scheme of things, so if it helps people with that I’m all for it.”

Others feel the response to SalukiChoices will be that of one group getting behind the cause and others not caring either way.

“I think that people who care about their bodies and their

health would probably listen to it, but some people who are just like ‘party, party, party,’ probably won’t,” Erika Glaub, a senior from Chicago studying zoology, said.

While the student body may be split on the topic, alcohol moderation is something worth addressing.

“It echoes his repeated threats on the campaign trail to shut down state government and the public services it provides in order to strip the rights of public service workers and drive down their middle-class standards of living,” said AFSCME spokesman Anders Lindall. “Our union has never had a strike in state government. State employees don’t want to be forced to strike.”

Another option for the government, if the current workers strike and not enough former workers resume their old jobs, is to ask the Illinois National Guard to take over some of their tasks.

But state Rep. David Harris, who was adjutant general from 1999 to 2003, said it would be a bad idea.

Erickson reports Harris said: “It’s a terribly impractical and, in my opinion, inadvisable idea,” Harris said.

“You’re going to replace paper-pushers -with all due respect to bureaucrats -- with people who carry M-16s and .45 pistols?”

Plus, he said, there would be only about 9,000 guardsmen available to cover 40,000 jobs, and asking them to work in offices could be expensive.

Erickson reports that Rauner’s office did not deny that the National Guard could be called up, but did not confirm it either. Lindall also told Erickson that AFSCME does not want to strike and hopes to reach a mutually agreeable arrangement with the governor’s office before it comes to that. But the union does not want to give in on some of Rauner’s demands, such as a wage freeze, higher health insurance costs and lowered pension benefits, while the governor’s office said it is not yet ready to agree to any other kind of contract.

Despite desires to avoid a strike, the Journal-Register reports that the governor is expected to veto a bill, passed in May, that would prevent a strike or a lockout.

Perusing the public library sale

Megan Crowell, left, of Carbondale, peers from behind a bookshelf full of mystery fiction at Emily Clark, of Carbondale, as they shop for books at a sale Saturday at the Carbondale Public Library.

“It’s nice to get great books for a good price,” Clark said. They mostly shopped for fiction. “It was a lot more books that I was expecting and a lot better books than I was expecting,” Crowell said.

The book sale was hosted

by Friends of the Library, a group that raises money to fund resources that won’t fit in the library’s budget.

Batgirl additional content is a missed opportunity Grant Meyer| @GrantMeyerDe One of the year’s biggest and highest quality games is Rocksteady Studios’ “Batman: Arkham Knight.”

As per usual with many big budget games, developers will release a series of downloadable content after the game’s launch.

Often times this extra content can be accessed by purchasing a season pass. The season pass will contain all the scheduled additional content to the game at a reduced price to buying it all individually. The risk with this method is sometimes the player has no idea what will be included with the season pass and might not want all the content, so a player is paying for more than they want.

Occasionally, the added content is

not worth the season pass price tag.

The first piece of playable content added with the season pass for “Batman: Arkham Knight” is “Batman Arkham Knight Batgirl: A Matter of Family.” The player can gain access to it by buying it individually for $6.99 or the “Batman Arkham Knight Arkham Knight Season Pass” for $39.99.

The additional content is set chronologically before the events of the first game in the Arkham series, “Batman: Arkham Asylum,” and after the events of the spin-off and origin story “Batman: Arkham Origins.” The spin-off and Batgirl content were developed by Warner Bros. Games Montréal.

The player controls the female heroine Batgirl. The player teams up with Robin and enters an abandoned theme park to

free police officers and Police Commissioner James Gordon, Batgirl’s father, from Joker.

Playing Batgirl is a welcome change to the standard formula of mostly playing Batman or another male character. She adds a different feel to the game in her movements and personality, like when playing as Catwoman.

This addition to the game has all the right aspects of a topnotch downloadable addition to this already fantastic game.

Unfortunately, this all falls short when it is realized the downloadable content does not add anything new and barely lasts more than an hour.

Batgirl can do mostly what Batman can, but is a little limited.

The upgrades unlocked as Batman do not carry over to Batgirl, so the player feels weaker right off the bat, no pun intended. She is also

missing many of Batman’s gadgets, so adjusting to her lesser arsenal can be a little rough. She can still take down entire groups of thugs at a time with ease though.

Batgirl does have one new tool, her hacking device. Batman’s hacking device is only used for opening locked doors. Batgirl is a master hacker so hers can be used on a variety of objects in the environment to distract or take down enemies. Unfortunately, this tool really feels lazy on the developer’s part. Most of the objects Batgirl can interact with using her hacking tool are things Batman would be able to utilize with his other devices. The extra interactions she gets are not enough to really make this tool feel fun.

The issue is most people will probably have played the full game and completed it by this

point. This new content will feel like they are taking a step back.

This would have served as a good tutorial level. It is a very small open environment with a few places to explore, and features a majority of weak enemies.

The lackluster storyline, which is over before a player can get invested in the plot, is also a problem. The credits are already rolling by the time a player starts to get a feel for everything and the finale is just another typical fight. It is great to control a strong female character like Batgirl, but there is not enough here to completely get our fill.

The concept of this additional content was very interesting and had potential, but what players get instead is a very short and unfulfilling hour or so which is hardly worth the individual price of $6.99.

Built in 1968, Kinkaid Lake is a 2750-acre lake five miles northwest of Murphysboro and 100 miles southeast of St. Louis. The Illinois Department of Natural resources, U.S. Forest Service and Kinkaid-Reed’s Creek Conservancy District maintain the land surrounding the lake.

Climbing the Spillway bluffs Off the beaten path Photos by Written by Sarah Jay Holland Niebrugge For the final location of our column, Jay Holland and I took a trip to a familiar spot to me, and a new one for him, the Kinkaid Lake Spillway.

The spillway is about 15 miles west of Carbondale off of Highway 149. Take a right on Spillway Road and follow it all the way to the end where the parking lot is located.

I discovered the spot about two years ago and have been back several times. It is the perfect place for an easy summer adventure, and a great day of fun in the water.

When you arrive at the entrance, you first must walk through a bit of water off the side of the large pool of water formed at the bottom of the spillway. We had tried to come here once before, but the water was too flooded to walk through.

This time, the water was not as high and we thought we could easily make it through without it

passing our hips. Unfortunately for us, dressed in our day-to-day clothes, the water was a bit more than 4 feet high.

Once we passed through the murky water, it was a short hike to the top swimming area where the water was much clearer.

My favorite part of the spillway at Kinkaid Lake is the walk up, not as much the top swimming area. The entire route is on sandstone bluffs following the waterfalls produced by the spillway. The layers of waterfalls are gorgeous. When the water level is lower and has less pressure, they are perfect for standing under and soaking in the cold water on the hot summer days.

One week during our column, we covered Kinkaid Lake and our journey going around it. This time we were able to actually spend a decent amount of time at one distinct spot and it was well worth it.

We made it to the spillway Monday morning, so we were the only ones out exploring, but it made for a very peaceful environment.

One thing we noticed, however, that was different than many

other areas we had visited, was the amount of trash along the trail heading to the top. Flip flops, cans and water bottles littered the area especially towards the bottom.

It is important when exploring the outdoors to always bring out everything you brought in with you.

Other than the trash, the view was gorgeous as always.

Once you hiked your way to the top, you can watch boats out on the lake as you swim around in the water lined by a string of buoys marking the safe area.

The boats on the lake have no motor restrictions but are limited to 50 mph during the day and 25 mph between sunset and sunrise, according to the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

Picnic benches sit by the parking lot with a large view of the waterfalls and makes for a perfect spot for lunch.

Take the time to visit this gorgeous spot this summer and explore what the spillway has to offer.

As our column comes to a conclusion, we implore you to use the rest of your summer exploring the hidden treasures of southern

The spilling retention barrier at Kinkaid Lake was originally completed in 1998 to help prevent the fish population from spilling over the sides of lake during high water conditions, according to The Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

Illinois. We enjoyed the weekends we had to get out of town and see what the area had to offer, and

we cannot wait to get back off the beaten path and continue our adventures.

‘Paper Towns’ will easily blow away in cinematic history Jacob Wiegand | @JacobWiegand_DE

Everyone, at one time or another, has or will face the difficult years of adolescence. But, few films are able to capture an accurate portrayal of those trying times.

“Paper Towns” (Rated PG-13; 113 min) directed by Jake Schreier, attempts to make its name as one of the great coming-of-age stories of the generation but ultimately fails to make it past the status of a forgettable movie-going experience.

Childhood friends who have grown apart with age, Quentin, played by Nat Wolff, and Margo, played by Cara Delevingne, embark on a night of excitement as Margo sets out to get revenge on her ex-boyfriend, who cheated on her, and her former friends, who did not bother to tell her about his infidelity.

But the next day, when Quentin decides to tell Margo of the feelings he has long harbored for her, he does not see her at school and soon finds out that Margo has ran away.

Determined to find out where Margo went, Quentin begins searching for clues as to her whereabouts. This soon leads

Quentin and best friends, Radar and Ben, played by Justice Smith and Austin Abrams, and newfound friends, Lacey and Angela, played by Halston Sage and Jaz Sinclair, on an adventure hundreds of miles from home in search of their friend.

The film, based on the John Green novel of the same name, wants to be the next “The Spectacular Now” or “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” but unfortunately does not reach the depth or sincerity of the formerly mentioned films.

At times, “Paper Towns” falls into the realm of overdramatic.

When stopping at a gas station for supplies during their trip, the five companions jump out of the car in extreme haste as not to sacrifice mere minutes of time. This scene takes on an unrealistic and cheesy tone which only further degrades the film.

“Paper Towns” addresses themes dealing with the sanctity of high school friendships and the sudden urge of many young people to just pick up everything, leave home and find themselves. These themes are basically clichés of the genre which have been used repeatedly in similar films. If addressed in the right way, worthwhile films can

Still of Cara Delevingne in “Paper Towns.”

be taken from such themes, but “Paper Towns” does not realize its full potential.

It is not a film where I felt a compulsive urge to simply get up and leave the theater, but it is also not a film I felt really had any affect on me. I never felt “Paper Towns” was anything more than conventional.

The story’s characters were typical teenagers and I never found anything in their onscreen personality that made me really care about what happened to them at the end of the story.

Margo is easily the most interesting character, but she is hardly shown in most of the film.

Although, this aspect of the film

is perhaps an asset considering the film is, in many ways, about the mysteriousness of Margo Roth Spiegelman.

Some are likely to like the film.

Perhaps lovers of the bestselling novel will come away from the film with better feelings. However, I think the film leaves a significant something to be desired.

Marlon Brando self recordings create basis for new documentary ‘Listen to Me Marlon’ SuSan King | LoS angeLeS TimeS “Listen to me, Marlon... This is one part of yourself speaking to another part of yourself. Listen to the sound of my voice and trust me. You know I have your interests at heart.” – Excerpt from a selfhypnosis tape recorded in 1996 by Marlon Brando By any measure, Marlon Brando was one of the most influential actors in the history of cinema.

His powerful acting style and undeniable charisma have mesmerized generations of filmgoers, with unforgettable roles in such movies as “On the Waterfront,” “A Streetcar Named Desire” and “The Godfather.” A generation of American actors studied – if not actually copied – his every move on-screen. He was like no one else.

But a new documentary, “Listen to Me Marlon,” which opens July 31 and will run this year on Showtime, shows another side of Brando – a man haunted by memories of an alcoholic mother and abusive father, who lacked self-esteem, battled loneliness and struggled through personal tragedies, including the suicide of

his daughter Cheyenne and the killing of her lover by Brando’s son Christian, for which he pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter.

“Listen to Me Marlon” is told in the late Brando’s own voice, culled from some 300 hours of audiotapes the actor made over the decades.

Interspersed between excerpts from the tapes are clips from his films, historical footage and a ghostly, unsettling digitalized version of Brando created from digital scans made in the 1980s by a friend, VFX supervisor Scott Billups. A facsimile of rooms from his nowdemolished estate on Mulholland Drive were even built for the production.

The documentary’s British director, Stevan Riley (“Everything or Nothing”), believes Brando was a “prisoner of his own fame.”

“He was trapped,” the director added, “but I am not entirely sure he would have relinquished the fame if given the choice.”

When Riley began listening to a handful of the tapes, he said he thought, “’What if the entire story was told in Brando’s own words?’

It was a bit of a shot in the dark.”

British producer John Battsek, of “Searching for Sugar Man,”

said audiences will be able to hear Brando struggling with himself and recognizing his own flaws on the tapes.

“He wasn’t a bad man, but he made a mess of so many things,” Battsek said. “He knew he was making a mess. He was so critical of himself, but he couldn’t stop himself.”

Avra Douglas, a trustee of the Brando estate who worked for the actor for several years and was a family friend, acknowledged: “We weren’t sure that the entire story could be told through Marlon’s voice.... Stevan figured out a way to tell the story without having talking heads, as one usually sees in documentaries.”

The result, she noted, is quite an emotional experience, especially for “people who knew him, to hear his voice.”

Battsek said Brando’s daughter Rebecca walked out of the first screening at Sundance, where it debuted this year. “I went out to find her and she was sitting outside, sobbing her eyes out because it was too emotional and difficult. She was sitting in the company of her father for the first time in a decade and watching and

listening to him go through the travails of his life.”

A few years ago, representatives of the Brando estate decided it was time for a new documentary about the actor, who died in 2004 at age 80. “There were a few that kind of scratched the surface,” said Douglas. “It was the idea of reintroducing him to a newer generation of people who didn’t know much about him or maybe had only heard of ‘The Godfather.’”

Brando started recording his thoughts “as soon as he could get his hands on a tape recorder,” Douglas said, adding that he loved new technology and gadgets. “He was the first person to buy a Mac. He was the first person to tell me about the Internet. I had no idea what he was talking about.”

Battsek flew to “Los Angeles very swiftly” when asked if he had interest in doing the film. “I met with [the estate] and started to talk about what could we do that would feel innovative and progressive. If they wanted a puff piece, then we weren’t the right people.”

Though Douglas said “there were some personal things we kept private,” Battsek and Riley had access to most material in the

archive, including the hundreds of hours of audio recordings.

Brando had recorded his thoughts and musings on reelto-reel tape, regular cassettes and mini-cassettes, and other material was on CD. Listening to the tapes, Riley said, he realized that Brando not only suffered from a deep loneliness but also, “I think he had something resembling an attachment disorder.”

“He admits in the film to be incredibly jealous,” Riley added. “I think he had issues of abandonment with his mother and his nanny. He was still trying to chase his father’s love, even at the end. He was the archetype man-child.”

Marlon Brando discusses his childhood, acting, ‘A Streetcar Named Desire’ and fame, in excerpts from audio recordings he made over the years.

On his childhood: “We lived in a small town, and my mother was the town drunk.

When my mother was missing, gone someplace, we didn’t know where she was. I used to have to go and get her out of jail. Memories, even now, that fill me with shame and anger.”

Brendon Gooch Catfish tournament promotes fish preservation commits to SIUC basketball norm sanders | Belleville News-Democrat With a flurry of Division I basketball scholarship offers headed toward Althoff Crusaders players this summer, senior guard Brendon Gooch was the first one to announce his decision.

The 6-foot-6 Gooch used his Twitter account to make it official as he gave a verbal commitment to Southern Illinois University Carbondale.

The Class 3A honorable mention all-state selection averaged 13.6 points and 7.7 rebounds last season while helping Althoff, 29-4, to a second-place finish at the 3A state tournament.

Gooch had 10 points and nine rebounds in the Crusaders’ 67-63 loss to Westchester St. Joseph in the state title game and fired in 20 points with eight rebounds in a semifinal win over Morgan Park.

“They were always at my summer games for my AAU team [the Southwestern Illinois Jets 17-under squad],” Gooch said. “They were the best offer I had and they can make me the best player I can be.”

Althoff coach Greg Leib said the Salukis are getting a lot more than a talented basketball player in Gooch, who led Althoff with 56 blocked shots and also hit 41 3-pointers.
