“Serving our communities to make them better places to live.”

CHICAGO – Hershey Felder has distinguished himself as a virtuoso pianist, accomplished singer-actor and impeccable mimic, appearing in one-man shows he wrote including “George Gershwin Alone,” “Monsieur Chopin,” “Beethoven, As I Knew Him,” “Maestro Bernstein,” and as Franz Liszt in “Musik.”

Midwest audiences now get to see the talented Felder at Royal George Theatre in his latest work, “Hershey Felder as Irving Berlin.” Featuring lyrics and music by Berlin, and based on a book by Felder, this production is on a national tour (stopping here through Dec. 6) ahead of its opening in New York City. It’s directed by Travor Hay. Felder fluidly captures the popular songwriter’s long life in the engaging one-hour, 45-minute show, following Berlin from his birth in May 1888 to his death at the age of 101.

He brings to the stage Berlin’s his marriage and children as well as touchstone ups and downs in his illustrious career.

Hershey Felder stars as Irving Berlin in his stage biopic of the composer.

Born in Czarist Russia as Israel Baline, Berlin fled from anti-Semitic persecution during the 1890s, settling with his family in New York’s Lower East Side. As a teen, he worked as a street singer and singing waiter in Chinatown. A selftaught pianist, he soon found he had talent as a lyricist.

Known as “America’s composer,” Berlin wrote 232 Top 10 songs, including 25 that

were No. 1 on the charts; he also turned out the score for multiple musicals and films.

Sprinkled through the show are a number of his most popular hits, including “How Deep Is the Ocean,” “Always,” “Puttin’ on the Ritz,” “Alexander’s Ragtime Band,” “Easter Parade,” and, first sung by Bing Crosby in 1942, “White Christmas.”

Audience members joined in when Felder performed

Berlin’s composition of “God Bless America,” first sung by Kate Smith.

Explaining the forces that led him to songwriting, Felder (as Berlin) cited love of country, his wife, his children and the audiences he reached.

Would you also like a turkey with that refrigerator?

As I bought my Thanksgiving turkey I was reminded of another long-gone Gurnee business. At one time, Petropoulos Brothers appliance store was one of the top appliance stores in Lake County. Located on the far eastern edge of the village of Gurnee, it was on the north side of Grand Avenue (Route 132) immediately west of the “Welcome to Gurnee” sign.

The building now houses a thrift store.

When I was a little girl living in Lake Villa, we used to take Grand Avenue when we visited relatives in Waukegan and North Chicago. One of the highlights of the trip through Gurnee was watching for Petropoulos Brothers’ annual Thanksgiving sales “gimmick.” In the weeks between Halloween and Thanksgiving, in the little side lot to the east of the store, there would be a pen containing a flock of white-feathered turkeys.

I remember asking my dad, the late Clark Wetterberg (I thought he knew everything

VILLAGE VINE Nancy Long and everybody), why those big birds were in that pen.

“They’re turkeys,” he said.

“Why are they white? Why aren’t they pretty colors like the ones in the history book?”

I said.

“They’re domestic turkeys,” he replied. “The ones in the history book are wild turkeys. Wild turkeys are smart. Domestic turkeys are stupid.”

Notice he still hadn’t answered my original question.

“But why are they in that pen, Daddy?”

“They’re a sales gimmick,” he answered. “A way to get people to buy things by making them think they are getting something for nothing.”

You see, if you bought a major appliance from Petropoulos Brothers during that pre-Thanksgiving time, you’d get a free turkey. A live

turkey! Hmm ... I wonder how many people took them up on that offer.

For all I know, Petropoulos Brothers used the same flock of turkeys year after year because who wants to deal with a live turkey, especially one that’s dumb as a box of rocks!

When we first got married 50 years ago, Bob and I lived in the little four-unit apartment building down the block from where we now live.

When we bought a house on the same street, we carried the furniture down the street and used a borrowed pickup truck to haul the rest of the stuff. My parents bought us a washer and dryer (from Sears, which was in downtown Waukegan at the time), and we borrowed an apartment-size stove from my folks since my mother wasn’t using it. However, we needed a refrigerator.

Now we moved into our house on Oct. 1. I didn’t want to wait too long to buy a fridge. Why? Because I figured we’d go to Petropoulos Brothers, but I did not want to deal

with a live turkey – not as a pet, not as Thanksgiving dinner. That’s why God invented Butterball, so housewives wouldn’t have to deal with live turkeys.

So, we went shopping for a refrigerator before we were scheduled to move in, trying to time delivery so we wouldn’t be without one for too long.

I remember that store having a long line of refrigerators as well as lines of stoves and washers and dryers. We picked out a Frigidaire that would fit in our “new” kitchen, making arrangements for delivery. As we were paying for it, the salesman asked if we’d like to wait a week or so.

“That way, you could get a free turkey,” he said.

“Um ... no thanks,” I was quick to reply. “I’ll just go to Jewel.”

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Officer kept secret stash of equipment Discovery of surplus in basement could have led to suicide

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com FOX LAKE – The basement that is home to the Fox Lake Police Explorers post looks like disgraced Lt. Joe Gliniewicz was preparing for a zombie apocalypse rather than teaching youth about police work.

The room at the bottom of a flight of stairs behind a padlocked door at the village community center is packed full of military gear meant to equip combat troops. Kevlar helmets, including several with built-in radio sets for tank drivers, fill several boxes and bins, as do numerous pairs of combat fatigues in woodland and desMatthew Apgar - mapgar@shawmedia.com ert colors. Other boxes hold Fox Lake Village Administrator Anne Marrin looks Nov. 19 through mounds of boxes full of military bulletproof vests, gas masks surplus items purchased by Lt. Joe Gliniewicz for the Police Explorers program he oversaw. The items and load-bearing vests that allow soldiers to carry were stored in the basement of an infrequently used village community building in Fox Lake.

high-capacity magazines and hand grenades.

It’s a stockpile that authorities say Gliniewicz illegally obtained over the years through a controversial program that has allowed law enforcement nationwide to obtain military weaponry, vehicles and equipment at little to no cost. And it was the discovery of the stockpile by new Village Administrator Anne Marrin, and her eagerness to get a full accounting of it, that could have led Gliniewicz to kill himself.

The size of the stash still amazes Marrin and Lake County Sheriff’s Detective Chris Covelli, who was part of the task force that investigated what at first appeared to be a heroic officer killed in the line of duty.

“We were overwhelmed with the amount of surplus gear located in here,” Covelli said as he looked through one of the boxes.

Freeze order on wife’s bank accounts remains in place

By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WAUKEGAN – The freeze on Melodie Gliniewicz’s bank account was extended Nov. 20, as attorneys issue subpoenas and the ongoing investigation of her late husband’s alleged embezzlement continues.

An agreed order between the attorneys notes the freeze orders on Melodie Gliniewicz’s bank accounts issued Nov. 6 will continue until a hearing date Dec. 7.

brief hearing.

Her husband, Fox Lake Police Lt. Joseph Gliniewicz died Sept. 1. Prosecutors said he shot himself twice with his service weapon and staged his death to look like a homicide.

An extensive manhunt and expansive funeral followed his death, before de-

tectives revealed earlier this month the Fox Lake officer’s death was a suicide.

Authorities said he killed himself as village officials were closing in on his years of pilfering money from the Fox Lake Explorer Post that he ran.

Magic still strong for food pantry LAKE COUNTY JOURNAL GURNEE – Jackie’s Magic was held Saturday at Warren Township High School in Gurnee.

The magic show began in 2004 after a Gurnee family, the Stanislawskis, lost their 20-year-old daughter Jackie in a car accident. Jackie’s Magic is held each year as a fundraiser to honor Jackie’s memory and to collect nonperishable food items for the community.

Before the accident, Jackie was working at the College of Lake County daycare center and wanted to be a special needs teacher, according to her mother, Jan. After the accident, her parents opened the trunk of her car and found it filled with cans of food she’d been collecting to donate.

Jackie’s father, Jim, got into magic when his younger daughter was making frequent visits to Children’s

Memorial Hospital and he’d do tricks to entertain the kids. Jackie eventually became her dad’s magic assistant.

Proceeds benefit the Warren Township Food Pantry.

Visit www.jackiesmagic. weebly.com for more information.

You DO NOT Have to Suffer From Knee Pain Any Longer!

Over 100 million Americans suffer from knee and joint pain? This pain accounts for 25 percent of all visits to primary care physicians and half of all anti-inflammatory drug prescriptions.Have you ever wondered how different your life would be if you could get rid of your knee pain? Where would you go, what would you do?

What would you give for a day, a week or a lifetime of pain-free mobility? We are pleased to announce that knee pain sufferers don’t have to wait any longer to get the most advanced, non-surgical, FDA approved treatment. If you suffer from any degree of knee pain, we invite you to regain control of your life by visiting Superior Health & Wellness, a state-of-the-art medical facility.

WHAT IS OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA)?

Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common type of arthritis. In osteoarthritis, the surface layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows the bones under the cartilage to rub together, resulting in pain, swelling and loss of motion of the joint. Although in some people it progresses quickly, in most individuals joint damage develops gradually over years.

WHAT ELSE IS AVAILABLE TO TREAT KNEE PAIN?

After careful study and several trials, the FDA approved a new treatment aimed at helping those with knee pain. This new treatment is a high-tech answer for all those who think that surgery, dietary supplements and prescription medications are the only option to eliminate knee pain.

HOW DOES THIS TREATMENT WORK?

We use diagnostic ultrasound, allowing the doctor to pinpoint problem areas with extreme accuracy. A viscosupplement is then injected, and the healing process begins. Viscosupplementation bonds with naturally occurring joint fluid to create a lubricating and cushioning layer. It reduces pain, inflammation and swelling of the joint. Patients compare the treatment to getting a shot at the doctor’s office, and report little pain or discomfort.

WHAT IS INJECTED INTO THE KNEE?

Hyaluronic acid is similar to substances that occur naturally in your joint. The outside of the joint (joint capsule) is comprimised of a sturdy, fibrous tissue. The lining of the joint capsule contains synovial cells, which secrete a thick, viscous synovial fluid.

Hyaluronic acid contributes to the viscous nature of the joint fluid, nourishes the cartilage, helps eliminate waste products, lubricates the joint and acts as a shock absorber inside the joint.Hyaluronic acid is reduced or lost from those who suffer from osteoarthritis. It is similar to changing the oil in your car.

If your car were to run low on oil, you would have some serious wear and tear on the moving parts.

HOW DO I KNOW THAT THIS IS RIGHT FOR ME?

In most cases, if you have knee pain, this is a great solution. Our doctors will give you an honest and fair evaluation of your particular knee pain. Space is limited to the first 30 Callers! Call today to schedule your FREE Knee Evaluation. Now is the time to take control of your life, and say goodbye to knee pain the non-surgical way!

Call now if you experience any degree of knee pain or discomfort.

WHY SUPERIOR HEALTH AND WELLNESS FOR MY KNEE PAIN?

EPA Completes Review of H.O.D. Landfill Superfund Site Antioch, Illinois The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has completed a review of the H.O. D. Landfill Superfund site, 55 McMillan Road, Antioch, Illinois. The Superfund law requires regular checkups of sites that have been cleaned up – with waste managed on-site – to make sure the cleanup continues to protect people and the environment. This was the third review of the site.

This review included an evaluation of background information, cleanup requirements, effectiveness of the cleanup, and maintenance and monitoring efforts. It also looked at ways to operate more efficiently. adno=0203194

LakeCountyJournal.com • Thursday, November 26, 2015

EPA’s cleanup of vinyl chloride-contaminated groundwater at the abandoned landfill consisted of cap improvements, enhanced gas and leachate collection systems, leachate treatment, and monitored natural attenuation of groundwater. Institutional controls, including deed restrictions, regulate the use of the property and groundwater. The review found the cleanup continues to protect people and the environment. The next scheduled review will be in 2020.

The five-year review and other site information are available at the Antioch Public Library, 757 N. Main St. (Route 83), Antioch, and at http://www.epa.gov/superfund/hod-landfill.

• STASH

Gliniewicz was found shot dead Sept. 1 after radioing in that he was pursuing three suspicious individuals near an abandoned building.

The community mourned “G.I. Joe” and police officers came from all over the country to give him a hero’s funeral.

But investigators concluded earlier this month that Gliniewicz, a 30-year veteran of the force, shot himself and staged the crime scene out of fear of getting caught for stealing tens of thousands of dollars from the Explorers program that he led for years.

His personnel file reveals he was continuously promoted and given increased responsibilities, despite a work history filled with misdeeds such as sexual harassment, threats to co-workers and problem drinking.

And documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act from the state office that administers the surplus program reveal the misplaced blind trust that police and village officials placed in Gliniewicz allowed him to obtain piles of military gear in plain sight on village property.

“It was most definitely a lack of oversight and a lack of accountability,” Marrin said.

No oversight

Fox Lake is one of more than 8,000 law enforcement agencies nationwide that obtains excess Department of Defense equipment through the Law Enforcement Support Office. The program has transferred more than $5.4 billion in property, from socks and office supplies to assault rifles and armored personnel carriers, since its creation more than 20 years ago, according to the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency, which administers what is known to police as the 1033 Program.

Critics allege the program contributes to what they call the “militarization” of police officers – they argue that equipping police officers like soldiers is making them act like soldiers, and look at the communities they serve as an enemy.

And among Gliniewicz’s responsibilities was being the

They never plowed, they never brought salt or anything. We were just stuck, and this was not the first time, and it seems terrible because there was a 24- or 48-hour notice for the storm, and I just wanted to say thank you Lake County housing for not being able to get out and get anything I needed. I hope everyone else is well.

America can’t let greed win the 2016 election The November election is a long way ahead, but it’s not too early to discuss what’s really the big issue. With all the presidency candidates, I’ve been amazed that very few of them highlight what’s really at stake. They, above anyone, should realize the crucial issue is the vast amount of money spent in politics, and running for public office, especially for the presidency.

Compared to Republicans, Democrats are playing the game with a set of Tinker toys.

It’s as if the Republicans are playing the same game, but with a multitude of precious pearls, and in the end, we will never know how much will be spent in that election.

SEEING IT THROUGH John S. Matijevich The whole process is unworthy. Can anyone in good conscience say these relative few (yet mega-rich) contributors are digging deep in their huge resource pockets to guarantee that good government will thrive and survive in America, and a representative democracy will prevail?

No! It doesn’t take much in political perceptive analysis to realize the Supreme Court decision to allow unlimited political campaign funds to be spent, and much of it without

transparency, tilts the policies toward their own special interests.

Although this tilt has been forging ahead for at least three decades, it’s now unmanageable and scary. This may be the first in all my years that I have followed elections where so many people in high levels of authority are warning that representative democracy has eroded in America.

They warn a plutocracy has developed that promotes and protects a marginally small number of ultra-rich individuals and the corporate mega-contributors.

Some time ago, I read a quote from Sen. Elizabeth Warren that strikes at the greed

from which these mega-rich political donors are profiting.

“There is nobody in this country who struck it rich on their own. Nobody,” she said, adding several ways the rich have depended on highways and other taxpayer payments for their movement of goods, etc.

Enormous grants and subsidies have further enriched the already-rich one-percenters who stretch their greed across the board. If America is going to show its displeasure over that plutocratic spread, which has drowned our middle class and made it almost impossible for the poor to deal, the vast majority of Americans must participate

in the election process with a loud, “Enough is enough!”

I’ve often read the most successful empires have fallen, not by the swords and bullets of adversaries, but by the corruption, greed and misgoverning within. We’re doing it to ourselves. Our No. 1 self-inflicted stab in our economic back has been the outsourcing of jobs to further enrich the wealthy at the expense of the general welfare of America and its representative democracy.

Take your choice in 2016.

Details on what specifically attorneys are seeking through the subpoenas is unknown at this time, but generally, Smith said he is seeking Joseph Gliniewicz’s pay records and other financials from the village of Fox Lake. He noted discovery in this matter was “90 percent” complete.

Lake County Judge Christopher Starck on Nov. 20 warned attorneys not to “try their case in the media.” Neither Smith nor Lake County Assistant State’s Attorney Ken LaRue offered comment outside the courtroom.

“It’s an ongoing investigation. We’ve agreed we shouldn’t say anything outside of your presence,” Smith told Starck at a brief court appearance.

Lake County investigators froze Melodie Gliniewicz’s bank accounts as they look into her involvement. An affidavit alleges Joseph and Melodie Gliniewicz exerted unauthorized control over Explorer funds for years. Joseph Gliniewicz used that account for routine and more “signif-

The Explorer account funded a trip to Hawaii in August 2014 that cost $5,683, prosecutors said.

Authorities claimed that four months later, Melodie Gliniewicz wrote a check to that account from her personal bank account for $4,275 with the note “Hawaii reimburse pd in full.”

Prosecutors froze her accounts without notice, and without probable cause of money laundering, and as a result she has been unable to pay her mortgage, doctor bills and other family expenses, her attorneys have said.

In a news release issued earlier this week, Melodie Gliniewicz asked the community, police, pension board and media to refrain from rushing to judgment.

Marrin is not the only person going over Fox Lake’s participation in LESO. The state LESO office also plans to do its own on-site review for compliance, said Meredith Krantz, spokeswoman for the Illinois Department of Central Management Services.

“If irregularities are found during the review, Fox Lake police could be suspended from LESO while they work to create a corrective action plan,” Krantz said in a statement.

After everything is settled, the village has to determine what to do with the stockpile Gliniewicz accumulated.

imate police use – Covelli said the Kevlar helmets possibly could end up staying with the department. Other items could end up being given to other police departments that may have a use for them.

Marrin said she is looking into giving the cots and sleeping bags Gliniewicz acquired to area homeless shelters, or a county emergency management agency.

Covelli said any uses would have to be good and positive ones.

“We’ll go through piece by piece and determine what the police officers here can use, and what to do with the rest of the gear,” Covelli said.

While civil liberties groups have raised concerns over the 1033 Program for years, the program and the underlying concern of police militarization began undergoing significant scrutiny last year in

the wake of police response to civil unrest in Ferguson, Missouri.

President Barack Obama earlier this year signed an executive order forbidding police departments from obtaining certain items they were previously able to get under the program, such as grenade launchers, bayonets, tracked armored vehicles, weaponized aircraft and firearms chambered in .50-caliber or higher.

Several states and other governments have taken action on their own to slow or stop the flow of military gear to local law enforcement. The McHenry County Board last year, out of financial concerns, started requiring a full board vote for any acquisition of military surplus that would result in added costs for fuel, maintenance, training or insurance.

PREP ROUNDUP

With his high school football career nearing an end, Riley Lees wasn’t about to let Libertyville fall short of an appearance in the state finals for the second year in a row.

With the Wildcats trailing 17-16 on the final play of the game Nov. 21, the senior quarterback sneaked the ball just over the goal line to give Libertyville a dramatic 22-17 win over Bradley-Bourbonnais in a snow-covered semifinal.

The Wildcats will play for the Class 7A title at 4 p.m. Nov. 28 against Glenbard West (130) at Northern Illinois University.

Libertyville jumped out to an early 14-0 lead, thanks to two rushing touchdowns by

Continued from page 21 Outlook: Jasnoch takes over the Blue Devils after previously being an assistant coach. Chambers is the only returning starter from last season, but the team does have a few other players who played significant minutes last season. O’Connor and Ellis have a lot of potential.

Coach: Scott Luetschwager Key Returning Players: Seniors – Bryan Nee, Dylan Latiolais, Parker Fink and Danny Stanley Key Newcomer: Sophomore – Jimmy Ott Outlook: After having some decent size the past few seasons, the Bulldogs will be guard-heavy this season. What Wauconda lacks in size, it makes up for in talent. The Bulldogs may play five guards on the floor at one time at some point during the season. Wauconda was hoping to have Zac Lahrman lead the team this season, but he will miss the season after having surgery last month. Luetschwager believes the roster is one of the most talented he’s coached during his seven years at Wauconda.

Lees, but the host Boilermakers turned it on and made a game of it.

Lees finished the game with 227 yards rushing to lead the Wildcats.

This will be Libertyville’s first appearance in the championship game since 2004 when the Wildcats defeated Cary-Grove.
