Writer recognized for passion for outdoors By DAN FARNHAM dfarnham@shawmedia.com LEMONT – Lemont resident Bob Maciulis has been writing columns about the outdoors for 40 years. His reputation also has led to a long-published magazine and radio and TV shows. His years of passion for the outdoors are being recognized with him being named to the 2015 class of the Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame in Wisconsin. “My wife and I sat there when we first got the letter that they were going to nominate me,” he said. “To think that you can write about the outdoors and get that kind of recognition, it’s overwhelming.” Maciulis said he can trace his love for the outdoors back to when his mother would take him to northern Wisconsin as a little boy. “I walked onto a pier and the sun was setting and it was overwhelming,” he said. “That

“You eventually learn it’s not about the fish. When you’re in the boat, it’s two people talking about life.” Bob Maciulis Lemont columnist would be the focus of the year.” Maciulis was once an English teacher and currently works as an intervention advocate in the writing center at Lemont High School. He got his start as a columnist because his brother was the editor of the Lemont Met, which is now the Lemont Suburban Life. “He said ‘You’re always talking about [the outdoors]. Why don’t you write about it?” he said. He turned in his first column in a folksy fashion that might be expected from an outdoors man – rolled up in a beer can he had cut in half. His column was picked up by various daily newspapers owned by the Chicago Sun-Times, as well as several magazines. His writing is now mostly

seen in the Outdoor Notebook Magazine, a publication run by him and his wife, Susan. He has been broadcasting his Outdoor Notebook Radio Show for 33 years, which can be heard from 6:05 to 7 a.m. Saturdays on WJOL 1340 AM in Joliet. He also did a TV show for 12 years that appeared on Channel 38 in Chicago. He ended the show because he needed to back off some of his workload. “At one time, I was writing seven different weekly columns for 11 different papers, as well as radio,” he said. Although his writing has always been about the outdoors, Maciulis said he has never had shortage of topics. “You can do a 40-page paper everyday [about the outdoors]

For him, it is a time to talk to people in a relaxed setting and get to know them better. “You eventually learn it’s not about the fish,” he said. “When you’re in the boat, it’s two people talking about life.”

LEMONT – Growing pumpkins is a difficult task for Rick Homerding of Puckerville Farms in Lemont. The amount of clay in the soil makes it difficult to grow pumpkins, and the plants require a frequent maintenance to treat for aphids and viruses, he said. “That’s why nobody does it around here anymore,” he said. “It’s just too much effort to put in to it, and it doesn’t mean you’re going to get a good crop out of it because of our soil here.” Puckerville Farms, 13332 Bell Road, is one of the few pumpkin patches in the area that still tries to grow its own pumpkins rather than ship them in from other areas. Homerding said his great grandparents purchased 180 acres of farm land in 1875. He now has three acres of land available to farm on that he leases from ComEd, which has high tension wires on the property. He said his ancestors grew corn and beans on the land, and it was his father that started growing pumpkins in the early 1990s. After his father died in 2002, Homerding took over the land and continued growing crops. “We’re not trying to make [the business] any bigger,” he said. “Basically, it means something to us and to me because I took it where my father left off and I took it over.” The farm also sells other types of decorative gourds and honey and provides rides for young children. Homerding works various jobs based on the season. He will sell Christmas trees,

9 EVENTS SET FOR LEMONTSTER DAYS

Lemont Halloween events take on new name By DAN FARNHAM dfarnham@shawmedia.com LEMONT – Many of the events are the same, but Lemont organizations are promoting their Halloween festivities together under the banner of Lemontster Days. “With many organizations involved in town, we can share resources,” Lemont Park District Director of Recreation Kim Passini said. “We can prevent overlap of different types of events.”

Passini said the Park District started hosting special event coordination meetings with community organizations last fall. “It’s been a win-win-winwin-win with everybody involved,” she said. She said the organizations would be open to a similar collaboration for other annu-

To the Electors of the State of Illinois: The purpose of a state constitution is to establish a structure for government and laws. There are three ways to initiate change to the Illinois Constitution: (1) a constitutional convention may propose changes to any part; (2) the General Assembly may propose changes to any part; or (3) a petition initiative may propose amendments limited to structural and procedural subjects contained in the Legislative Article. The people of Illinois must approve any changes to the Constitution before they become effective.

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO SECTION 8.1 OF ARTICLE I OF THE ILLINOIS CONSTITUTION ARTICLE I – BILL OF RIGHTS SECTION 8.1. CRIME VICTIMS’ VICTIM’S RIGHTS. (a) Crime victims, as defined by law, shall have the following rights as provided by law: (1) The right to be treated with fairness and respect for their dignity and privacy and to be free from harassment, intimidation, and abuse throughout the criminal justice process. (2) The right to notice and to a hearing before a court ruling on a request for access to any of the victim’s records, information, or communications which are privileged or confidential by law. (3) (2) The right to timely notification of all court proceedings. (4) (3) The right to communicate with the prosecution. (5) (4) The right to be heard at any post-arraignment court proceeding in which a right of the victim is at issue and any court proceeding involving a post-arraignment release decision, plea, or sentencing. make a statement to the court at sentencing. (6) (5) The right to be notified of information about the conviction, the sentence, the imprisonment, and the release of the accused. (7) (6) The right to timely disposition of the case following the arrest of the accused. (8) (7) The right to be reasonably protected from the accused throughout the criminal justice process. (9) The right to have the safety of the victim and the victim’s family considered in denying or fixing the amount of bail, determining whether to release the defendant, and setting conditions of release after arrest and conviction. (10) (8) The right to be present at the trial and all other court proceedings on the same basis as the accused, unless the victim is to testify and the court determines that the victim’s testimony would be materially affected if the victim hears other testimony at the trial. (11) (9) The right to have present at all court proceedings, subject to the rules of evidence, an advocate and or other support person of the victim’s choice. (12) (10) The right to restitution. (b) The victim has standing to assert the rights enumerated in subsection (a) in any court exercising jurisdiction over the case. The court shall promptly rule on a victim’s request. The victim does not have party status. The accused does not have standing to assert the rights of a victim. The court shall not appoint an attorney for the victim under this Section. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to alter the powers, duties, and responsibilities of the prosecuting attorney The General Assembly may provide by law for the enforcement of this Section. (c) The General Assembly may provide for an assessment against convicted defendants to pay for crime victims’ rights. (d) Nothing in this Section or any law enacted under this Section creates a cause of action in equity or at law for compensation, attorney’s fees, or damages against the State, a political subdivision of the State, an officer, employee, or agent of the State or of any political subdivision of the State, or an officer or employee of the court. or in any law enacted under (e) Nothing in this Section or any law enacted under this Section shall be construed as creating (1) a basis for vacating a conviction or (2) a ground for any relief requested by the defendant appellate relief in any criminal case.

EXPLANATION The Constitution sets forth substantial rights for crime victims. The proposed amendment expands certain current rights: 1) Victims are currently entitled to fairness and respect throughout the criminal justice process. The amendment would also provide that they shall be protected from harassment, intimidation and abuse. 2) Victims currently can make a statement to the court when a criminal defendant is sentenced to punishment. The amendment would allow a victim to be heard at any proceeding that involves the victim’s rights, and any proceeding involving a plea agreement, release of the defendant or convicted individual, or sentencing. 3) Victims may obtain information about conviction, sentencing, imprisonment or release. The amendment would require prosecutors and the court to notify victims of those events before they happen. The amendment would also grant additional rights to crime victims: 1) A victim would have a right to formal notice and a hearing before the court rules on any request for access to the victim’s information which is privileged or confidential information. 2) A victim would have the right to have the judge consider the victim’s safety and the safety of his or her family before deciding whether to release a criminal defendant, setting the amount of bail to be paid before release, or setting conditions of release after arrest or conviction. 3) The victim would have the right to assert his or her rights in any court with jurisdiction over the criminal case, but would not have the same rights as the prosecutor or the criminal defendant and the court could not appoint an attorney for the victim at taxpayer expense. The proposed amendment would not alter the powers, duties or responsibilities of the prosecutor. Further, a criminal defendant would not be able to challenge his or her conviction on the basis of a failure to follow these provisions.

FORM OF BALLOT Proposed Amendment to the 1970 Illinois Constitution Explanation of Amendment The proposed amendment makes changes to Section 8.1 of Article I of the Illinois Constitution, the Crime Victims’ Bill of Rights. The proposed amendment would expand certain rights already granted to crime victims in Illinois, and give crime victims the ability to enforce their rights in a court of law. You are asked to decide whether the proposed amendment should become part of the Illinois Constitution.

YES NO

District 113A reviews residency, registration Property taxes are the predominant way our public schools are funded and are the primary source of revenue used in educating our children. As a result, Lemont-Bromberek School District 113A is reviewing and restructuring residency procedures to ensure our taxpayer dollars are spent efficiently. COMMUNITY Lemont-Bromberek School VOICE District 113A board policy Courtney 7:60 currently states: “Only students who are residents Orzel of the District may attend a District school without a tuition charge, except as otherwise provided below or in State law. A student’s residence is the same as the person who has legal custody of the student.” The policy is in place to ensure all students who are enrolling in our schools are living within our district boundaries. In other words, someone cannot access a residence or address in the SD113A boundaries in order to send their children to the District 113A schools on a nontuition basis. Similarly, a family member’s residence within the district cannot be used to access our schools if the child’s legal custodian resides outside of the district’s boundaries. It is a Class C misdemeanor to knowingly or willfully provide false information to a school district regarding the residency of a child for the purpose of enabling that child to attend any school in the district without the payment of nonresident tuition. Principals and secretaries are currently in the process of reviewing all registration and residency information to ensure that children enrolled in School District 113A reside within district boundaries. Parents are responsible for informing their child’s school upon moving from a current residence. In addition, leases must be provided annually or upon the termination of the lease if the term of the lease is shorter. It is critically important that property taxes are used to educate our district students. As stewards of taxpayer dollars, we are charged with the responsibility to ensure students accessing district resources live within our boundaries in order to attend our schools on a tuition-free basis. District residents may contact the school principal or superintendent with information if they have knowledge of families that are living out of district and falsifying their primary residence. All reports will remain anonymous, but the District is committed to investigating any residency concerns out of respect to the taxpayers in District 113A.

Courtney Orzel is Superintendent of Schools at District 113A.

SOUND OFF

Work for free? This is in response to the Sound Off item about stylists giving free haircuts during Christmas. My question to the writer is would that person be interested in going to their job and work one day for free? Would everyone want to work one day for free? This is their livelihood. I totally disagree with this concept, and I am not a stylist.

No free cuts To the person who believes hair stylists should give a free haircut at Christmastime, I would suggest that this greedy human being should go to work for his/her boss one day or maybe a whole week for free during Christmastime. Don’t mask your greediness behind some false wall of righteousness. Sounding off!

More tips for waiters? With regards to tipping, I’ve always been confused as to how tipping goes at restaurants. I think the person who waits tables at a place like Denny’s with lots of business and low prices – that person probably works harder and probably deserves more money in tips than a waiter at a highend restaurant. I mean, is the tray any heavier?

Eric Holder should have never held the DOJ (Department of Justice) office as he is a very racist person. The DOJ office should be a nonpartisan person. He has proven throughout his reign that he was not the right person to hold the office for the people of the USA. If Al Sharpton, Obama and Erick Holder have their way, expect someone just as racist to be elected to continue their corruption.

Would someone please tell me why dog owners think it’s permissible to bring their animals to public events? First, not everyone likes dogs… I don’t want to be sniffed, nudged, nipped or barked at; I don’t care how cute your dog is. I find it very distracting, especially when I’m attending a children’s game, and we are supposed to be there to watch the kids play, not admire your dog. Granted, most dogs are well-behaved, but there is always the barker or one that wants to play, so charges every dog in sight. I believe there is an ordinance against taking your dogs into parks and park district fields. Parents, aren’t we setting a poor example by ignoring these rules in front of our children? Most important is safety. Yes, I know your dog would never bite anyone, but how many times have we heard that before? They are animals and as such, can be set off by heat, noise, fear, another dog or whatever, and you never know when it could happen.

Area teenager allegedly tries to join ISIL SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA BOLINGBROOK – Neighbors described the Bolingbrook man accused of attempting to join ISIL and his family as “nice” and “friendly.” There was nothing in their observations of Mohammed Hamzah Khan, 19, to suggest he would be on his way to join a group that has become notorious for its beheadings and is now the chief target of U.S. anti-terrorism efforts. But that’s what prosecutors said Khan was about to do before he was apprehended Saturday at O’Hare International Airport. “The kid seemed kind of nice,” said Aimy Wipfler, who lives down the street from the

Khans and would occasionally see Mohammed riding his bike. But prosecutors in court Monday said their evidence includes a letter written by Khan describing Western society as “immoral” and complaining that his U.S. taxes were being spent to kill his “Muslim brothers and sisters.” Khan has been charged with attempting to join the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, also known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, according to a news release from the U.S. Attorney Northern District of Illinois office.

to catch neighbors by surprise Monday. “They were really friendly,” next-door neighbor Steve Moore said of the Khan family. Moore would work on the Khans’ car and also plowed snow off their driveway. The entire family, including Mohammed, seemed nice, he said. Wipfler said the family appeared to be somewhat withdrawn, and the curtains to the house were typically drawn. Wipfler said she saw Khan going to the Furqaan Academy, an Islamic school located across the street from his house. According to the release from the U.S. Attorney’s office, members of the Chicago FBI’s Neighbors react The turn of events appeared Joint Terrorism Task Force

took Khan, a U.S. citizen, into custody without incident at O’Hare International Airport, where he supposedly attempted to fly to Vienna on his way to Istanbul.

Khan in court He appeared Monday morning in U.S. District Court on one count of attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization and remains in federal custody pending a detention hearing at 10:30 a.m. Thursday, according to the news release. According to the complaint, Khan purchased a round-trip ticket Sept. 26 to travel from Chicago to Istanbul, departing Saturday and returning later this week.

After observing Khan passing through the security screening checkpoint Saturday, federal agents executed a search warrant at Khan’s residence and recovered multiple handwritten documents that appeared to be drafted by Khan or others expressing support for ISIL, according to the affidavit. Khan was initially approached by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers and was later interviewed by FBI agents at the airport, according to the affidavit. Attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization carries a maximum penalty of 15 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, according to the police.

In response to “Don’t forget to tip” in the Oct. 1 paper: Some of us are not as fortunate as you to afford to spend $160 plus a $32 [20 percent] tip on our hair. In addition to that, I had always heard that you do not, or should not, tip the owner of a hair salon, if she/he is the one who provides you with the service. That is always awkward, as you

Restaurant reviews

Bella Bacino’s fires up passion for Italian LA GRANGE – As we approached Bella Bacino’s in downtown La Grange, diners sat outside enjoying their Italian fare on a mild fall evening. Indoors, the inviting space has warm colors and a wall covered with sections of wine crates. The old world Italian inspiration can’t be missed, but the decor remains unique, bathed in deep reds with pale accents. Strings of miniature light bulbs wrap the exposed ceiling overhead for a romantic touch. After delivering our drinks, our server brought over a warm plate of tomato basil bread, along with olive oil and Parmesan cheese. Not only did the orange-hued bread look more adventurous than a traditional basket of baguette slices, the basil added an extra kick. Despite the tempting list of appetizers, including classics such as bruschetta and calamari, the Caprese salad was calling my name. I decided to skip the opening act and talked my dining companion into splitting the Caprese’s fresh cow’s milk mozzarella, slices of locally grown, vine-ripened tomatoes and basil, topped with extra virgin olive oil and a balsamic reduction. The juicy tomatoes and creamy mozzarella popped with contrasting flavor and texture. After studying the menu, my companion decided on one of the day’s specials. He picked the potato gnocchi with prosciutto and spring peas in a light cream sauce. I had to sneak a bite from his plate after listening to him rave about his dinner choice. The delicate sauce was just the right amount to dress the hearty potato dumplings and tangy prosciutto tidbits. I went with the flavorful Rigatoni con Mozzarella. My plate was filled with house-made tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella and basil, and Parmigiano-Reggiano. I added prosciutto, but another option is salsiccia, an Italian sausage.

Rigatoni con Mozzarella is more than the usual pasta and tomato sauce. Adding prosciutto elevates it even further.

Lemont running back Anthony Martin follows his blockers Oct. 3 during a home game against Thornton Fractional North. Martin and the Indians won big, 55-13.

Lemont offense hits stride against TF North By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com LEMONT – Bret Kooi said his Lemont offense can still reach a higher level or two. That must be a scary thought for future opponents. Averaging just over 38 points per game heading into their Week 6 contest, the Indians had all cylinders firing in a 55-13 win against TF North on Oct. 3. “We are starting to click,” said Kooi, who is in his first year as Lemont’s head coach. “If somebody has watched us, that’s evident.” Quarterback Ryan Dawson helped keep the Indians undefeated on the fall by com-

“Up front we are getting better protection wise, and that’s where it all starts,” Kooi said. “Everybody is starting to get comfortable, but there are still a couple more phases of our passing game that we haven’t made it to yet.” Kooi is so focused on his team continuing to improve that he didn’t even realize that the Indians have officially clinched a playoff berth after missing out on the postseason last fall. “It is such a week-to-week process that it caught me off guard a little bit in a good way,” he said. “And that is something that I’m really proud of the kids about, everything has been a week-to-week conversation.

It’ll be nice publicity for the city as it’s mentioned repeatedly over a several week stretch on all the sports stations, assuming we don’t have kids being shot and young women being assaulted every night while the spotlight is on our hometown. But as long as I’m trying to tell you the truth here, I’ve got some bad news for our mayor. “Next year, NFL fans from across the country will travel here or tune in as the future of their team is decid-

IT’S ALL ABOUT DRIVE

ed in Chicago,” Mayor Rahm Emanuel said in a statement about the draft announcement. Nobody’s coming boss. The NFL draft won’t even be a pimple on the behind of Chicago’s tourist industry. Each team will send a couple people, so that’s 65 to 100, and the NFL will probably send 50 to 100 more. And they’ll try and bring in the top 20 to 25 prospects and their families and posses. So maybe the event will bring 300 or 400 people to town for a couple days. You’d get a lot more than that for a quilting convention. I hate to rain on Chicago’s newest parade, folks, but attending an NFL College Draft in person is much ado about nothing. Unless, of course, you’re one of those guys who loves to paint his face, throw on a Halloween costume and then go out in public, sit in a peanut gallery and howl at the moon. Even if you are “that guy,” would you spend a couple grand to travel to another city, book a hotel room and run around a strange city, all decked out like a

doofus and feed someone else’s local economy? Or are you more likely to participate if all you have to do is take a ride locally and still get home in time for all your meals? The couple thousand fans who show up in New York every year are all locals who rarely have the opportunity to get to an actual game, so they show up at the draft to proclaim their loyalties. Maybe we’ll get a few folks who’ll come down for the weekend from Milwaukee or Detroit or head northwest from Indianapolis. The folks in the seats will be locals who might otherwise be feeding the economy in their neighborhood watering holes. Again, it will generate a nice amount of free TV time for the city, although nowhere near as much as if the Bears actually made a deep run in the playoffs. Don’t get me wrong; Bringing the draft to Chicago isn’t a bad thing. It just isn’t much of a thing at all since all we’re really doing is giving folks a chance to miss the best made-for-TV event in all of sports to go watch it in person.

What exactly are those 50 to 75 people going to do for the tourist industry in the city of Chicago? Yes, that is clearly a rhetorical question. True, the commissioner, who I assume still will be Roger Goodell, will be there. But 10 minutes ago most of you wanted him fired. Now you want to run out and watch him in person as he steps to a podium every 10 minutes, calls some kid’s name and then exchanges a truly embarrassing man-hug with a young man half his age and twice his size who he’s never met before and probably will never see or talk to again?

I get it guys, everybody loves to win. That’s why there is excitement around town that the 2015 NFL Draft will take place in Chicago next April 30 thru May 2, 2015. Very cool! Except it’s really not. Has anyone stopped to ask himself or herself what Chicago has really won? I have been covering the NFL College Draft since 1979, and for the first decade or so would trek to New York every year to be where the action was. Until I finally realized there’s actually no action there at all. Nobody who matters attends the draft in person. All of the guys you’d love to talk to, interview or get to spend a few minutes with – NFL general managers, personnel directors, scouts and coaches – are holed up in the “war rooms” at their respective facilities. The guys and gals they send to the draft to represent them usually are folks somebody owes a favor, perk and/or a fun trip to. At the table of each NFL team at the actual draft, you are most likely to find an equipment manager,
