Duke versus Maryland (Best taunt ever? The Dookies chanting "not our ri-val!" as the Terps ran up and down the court with them.) Now is the time for the Chicago Cubs. In baseball, no matter what they say about pitching, the manager's spot is the most important. There are no coincidences that guys like LaRussa, Torre, Herzog, Piniella, Yost, Billy Martin (between bar fights), Showalter and Joe Maddon win ever y w here t he y go. Wherever they go they bring their ideas with them, and, with all due respect to Casey Stengel ... they usually go right back to winning soon enough. Water finds its level. There is no such thing as a curse or a jinx, but there is such a thing as the right place and time. Guys like David Ross, Anthony Rizzo, Justin Grimm, Kris Bryant and the rest of the deceptively hot-hitting Cubs in their "whatever you think is hot" suits, they're feeling it. So brace yourself, Wrigley Field ... the jinx is up.
Work is the greatest thing in the world, so we should always save some of it for tomorrow. –Don Herold

NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK
GIRLS SCOUT DAY AT THE CAPITOL
Boaters can enjoy a safe season on the water in Illinois this summer if boat operators are sober and all boaters and boat passengers wear life jackets. Illinois Conservation Police officers, who patrol waterways throughout the state, are reminding boaters of safety laws and regulations leading up to National Safe Boating Week, May 21-27. “We encourage safe boating throughout the year in Illinois, and reminders about life jackets and sober boating are particularly important heading into the busiest season of the year on the water,” said Illinois Conservation Police Chief Rafael Gutierrez. “Like fastening a seat belt in your car or truck, fastening a life jacket can save your life; and, staying sober while operating a boat is the law in Illinois.” Statistics compiled by the IDNR Office of Law Enforcement show that there were 74 boating-related accidents on Illinois waters in 2015 resulting in 49 injuries and 14 fatalities. During the last five years, Illinois had an annual average of 84 boating accidents resulting in 58 injuries and 18 fatalities. (Annual boating accident
Girl Scout Troop 8623 attended Girl Scout Day at the Capitol. Girls visiting the Capitol were (L to R) back: Dazey Musgrave, Dymond Musgrave, Lenzie Me r r i m an , Ma d i s on McConnaughay; front: Daniya Musgrave, Zoey Wilson, Baylee Nichols. At New Salem School House, the girls wrote on black slates and learned how it would have been to go to school with Abraham Lincoln.
statistics are compiled based on the Federal Fiscal Year of October 1 through September 30). Illinois Conservation Police officers (CPOs) in 2015 made 179 arrests for boaters operating under the influence (OUI), a 12.5 percent increase in OUI arrests from 2014. IDNR statistics indicate six of the 14 boating-related fatalities in Illinois last year involved alcohol or drug impairment, while 13 of the 14 people who died in boating accidents may have survived if they had worn a life jacket or other personal flotation device (PFD). Illinois law requires that PFDs – life jackets or life vests – be available for each person aboard a boat or other watercraft. State law also requires that anyone under the age of 13 must wear a life jacket while aboard any watercraft under 26 feet in length at all times the boat is underway, unless they are below deck in an enclosed cabin or operating on private property. Illinois law also requires persons of any age to wear a PFD while operating a personal watercraft or Jet Ski. The IDNR offers free
boating safety courses providing a review of boating laws and regulations and instruction on safe and attentive operation of watercraft. The IDNR encourages boaters of all ages to take a safety course. Anyone born on or after January 1, 1998 must pass a course and have a valid Boating Safety Certificate to operate a motorboat (with over 10 horsepower); and, state law requires boating safety education for persons ages 12 to 17 to operate a motorboat. The free safety courses taught by volunteer instructors are available throughout Illinois, and schedules are available by checking the IDNR website’s boating information page at http://www.dnr.illinois.gov/safety/Pages/ BoatingSafety.aspx For a fee, online boating safety courses are also available. National Safe Boating Week is observed each year during the week leading up to the Memorial Day holiday weekend. For more information on the national safe boating campaign, go to the website at www.safeboatingcampaign. com.

Mankind has always had an innate need for a hero. Children play and pretend to be certain heroes. Mytholog y recounts the mighty acts of heroes. Modern fiction has formulated superheroes. But none of these heroes are real. On Memorial Day we honor true heroes. They are ordinary men and women who served t h e i r c ou nt r y i n uniform and gave the ultimate sacrifice of their lives in battle. Scott Sernes recounted the story of Medal of Honor recipient Captain Ed Freeman. “You’re a 19-year-old kid. You’re critically wounded and dying in the jungles of Vietnam. Your unit is outnumbered 8 – 1 and the enemy fire is so intense that your CO has ordered Med Evac helicopters to stop coming in. You’re lying there, listening to the enemy’s machine guns and you know you’re not getting out. “As the world starts to fade in and out, you know that this is the
day. Then, over the sound of the machine guns, you faintly hear the sound of a helicopter. You look up and see a Huey coming in. It doesn’t seem real; there’s no Med Evac i ns i g n i a s v i s i bl e. Captain Ed Freeman is coming in for you. He heard the radio call and decided he’s flying down into the battle anyway. They load three of you at a time and fly you out through the hail of bullets to safety – to nurses and doctors. He keeps flying in and out – 13 more times – until all the wounded are out. No one knew, until the mission was over, that Captain Freeman had been hit 4 times in his legs and left arm. He took you and 29 of your buddies out that day.” Captain Ed Freeman, USAF, was a goodness to God genuine hero! What is a goodness to

in the sky. And the sparrow can’t fly. If that isn’t love. Then heaven’s a myth. There’s no feeling like this. If that isn’t love.” HE STANDS UP FOR THE MARGINALIZED AND BROKEN. A lady, charged with adultery, was brought to Jesus. The law said to stone her. Jesus said, “’He that is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone . . . Then those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, . . . Jesus said to the woman, “Neither do I condemn you: go and sin no more” (John 8:7-11) Jesus stands up for you when everyone else walks away. Jesus is the goodness to God genuine hero in my book. He not only died in our place, but he conquered death, hell, and the grave when he arose on the third day. He is Lord! (Romans 10:9)

God genuine hero? HE LAYS DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS. Jesus defines it in John 15:3, “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” Jesus revealed his identity and mission, “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” (John 10:11) What loving friendship Jesus demonstrated on the cross. HE LAYS DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS ENEMIES. Jesus demonstrated the extraordinary love of God, “For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yea per adventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commended his love toward us in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:7-8) As Jesus hung on the cross between two thieves, he prayed, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” (Luke 23:34) An old gospel song by Dottie Rambo says, “If that isn’t love, the ocean is dry.

HOW TO HONOR SERVICEMEN AND WOMEN Men and women serving in the military make considerable sacrifices in defense of the United States and its citizens. Such sacrifices can easily be taken for granted by those with no friends or family members serving in the military, but it's important for all Americans to recognize the efforts of both active and veteran servicemen and women. Honoring active military members and veterans does not have to be an elaborate undertaking. Service members and their families often cherish even the simplest of gestures, and the following are a handful of ways grateful men and women can show their appreciation to active and retired members of the military. * Help a neighbor who's on active duty. Active duty service members can be away from their families for long periods of time, and their absence can make things difficult for their families. Spouses of deployed service members are typically left to manage a household on their own
for months at a time. Neighbors can show their appreciation by helping with some chores around the house. Offer to mow a neighbor's lawn or drive a neighbor's kids to school. Such gestures might seem small, but they can go a long way toward alleviating some of the stress that spouses of deployed service members deal with on a daily basis. * Support the Wounded
Warrior Project. Many service members sustain physical injuries while deployed. The Wounded Warrior Project works to raise awareness and enlist the public's help to address the needs of injured service members. Men and women who want to show their appreciation to injured service members can work with the Wounded Warrior Project by volunteering at project-sponsored events
or hosting fundraising events such as golf tournaments or community picnics. More information about working with the Wounded Warrior Project is available at www.woundedwarriorproject.org. * Write a letter of appreciation. One of the simplest ways to show your support for service members is to write them a letter expressing that appreciation. If a
friends, relatives or neighbors are active service members or veterans, sit down and write a letter telling them how much you appreciate their sacrifice in service of their country, and encourage youngsters to do the same. If you don't know any members of the military, you can work with A Million Thanks (www. amillionthanks.org), a year-round campaign that
encourages Americans to write letters or emails or send cards or prayers to U.S. military personnel, past and present to thank them for their sacrifices, dedication and service. * Exercise your right to vote. One of the best ways to honor servicemen and women is to avoid taking the rights they so bravely defend for g rante d. Members of the military routinely put their lives on the line so Americans can enjoy freedoms that many people across the globe cannot. Voting is one such freedom, so Americans should make it a point to vote every ElectionDay and teach their kids about the responsibility each American has to vote and take an interest in their government. Speak with active and veteran members of the military about their thoughts on proposed legislation and their opinions on how to improve that legislation, taking those opinions into consideration before casting your vote.

REMEMBER SACRIFICE ON MEMORIAL DAY More than 100 years ago in 1863, America was in the midst of the most painful time in our history — the Civil War. On the site of the bloody battle, on the outskirts of Columbus, Mississippi, a group of women walked among the fresh graves. They carried wildflowers to lay on the graves of their Confederate soldiers who were buried there. As they moved from one grave to another, they noticed another group of graves off to one side. They were clearly the graves of Union soldiers who had died on the same field of battle. With little discussion, they began to lay their flowers on those graves as well. The healing of a nation began at that point. The
compassion of these Southern ladies for those who died fighting against their husbands, fathers and sons gave a clear message that, in death, all are equal. This small gesture was passed by word of mouth. Union and Confederate soldiers alike were touched by this simple act of honor. A Union veterans organization, called the Grand Army of the Republic, decided to designate a special day to honor the fallen from both sides. The following order was issued: “The 30th day of May, 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie
in almost every city, vi l lage and ham let churchyard in the land. Their soldier lives were the reveille of freedom to a race of chains and their deaths a tattoo (drumb e at) of reb el lious tyranny in arms. We should guard their graves with sacred vigilance.” New York was the first state to set aside this day for specific remembrance of those fallen in battle. In 1873, they passed a law designating May 30 as Decoration Day. In 1882, the holiday was adopted across the United States and renamed “Memorial Day.” In 1973, Memorial Day was officially established as the last Monday in May. On Memorial Day, the sky will likely be clear and most of us will have the day off to enjoy a long
weekend. All of us, even the veterans, will have a tendency to enjoy the day without a thought to those who should be remembered. These are the ones who never married their sweetheart, never saw their children play, never went back to school or pursued their dream career. For them and the families they left behind, we must pause during our picnics and gatherings. We must pause, if only for a moment, to remember their sacrifices. If they could speak they would likely say, “Make the most of your freedom and privileges. We purchased them with our lives.” I guess we owe them at least that much. I am sure they would ask for no more.

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE SERIOUS COMMITMENT TO AMERICAN IDEALS BY GEORGE R. CRAMER, FORMER NATIONAL COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF, VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS
School children across America make the pledge every morning. The pledge is often made at town hall meetings and civic events. Nearly every veterans’ organization begins its meetings by making the pledge. I’m referring to the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag and the republic of the United States of America. Too often, we simply rattle off the words, forgetting that, to those who first made it, the Pledge of Allegiance was a serious statement of commitment to America and its ideals. Though no one knows who wrote the original version, the anniversary of the Pledge of Allegiance has been celebrated on September 8 since its adoption in 1892. Its first official use was in the program of the National Public Schools Celebration of Columbus Day. It was first printed in the Youth’s Companion of Columbus Day, a patriotic book widely distributed throughout schools in the late 1800s. Attempts To Change The Pledge Originally written, “I pledge allegiance to my flag,” the First National Flag Conference in 1923
made an important change. “My flag” was replaced by “the flag of the United States” to clarify the pledge for foreign-born school children and those born of foreign parents. The phrase “of America” was added at the Second National Flag Conference in 1924. The next major change came in 1954, when President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed House Joint Resolution 243 into law on Flag Day, June 14. The resolution amended the pledge by adding the words “under God” following the phrase “one nation.” Although attempts have been made to remove this reference to God, the phrase has remained. Challenges have arisen from time to time from minority groups concerned about the final phrase, “with liberty and justice for all.” These
208 Zachery Street Mt. Vernon, IL

groups have sought to change the line to read, “and in which there will one day be liberty and justice for all.” Adoption of the U.S. Flag Code on June 22, 1942, prevents the Pledge of Allegiance from being altered, modified or deleted without presidential consent. Stop And Listen September 8, the official anniversary of our Pledge of Allegiance, should be a time to stop and reflect on the significance of the act of making the pledge. American veterans across the nation and around the world have a deep, abiding appreciation for the words of the pledge. Many of them have defended our right to make that pledge, some at great personal sacrifice. The next time you say
The Residents And Staff Of GreenTree Assisted Living And Memory Care Honor All Who Have Served Our Wonderful Country. We Say God Bless You For All You Have Done For Us.
the Pledge of Allegiance, take a few minutes to listen carefully to what you are saying. Recognize that making this kind of pledge, publicly, means imprisonment and even instant death in many nations around the world. Rather than simply “saying” the Pledge of Allegiance, think about the fact that you are “making a pledge” to honor and support our great nation and the flag that represents it. And the sacrifice and love that have made it great.

THE HISTORY OF MEMORIAL DAY Though many people are quick to refer to Memorial Day as the unofficial beginning of summer, the day is much more than that. Initially known as Decoration Day, Memorial Day is a day to remember those militar y members who died in service of the country. The origins of Memorial Day remain a topic of debate. In 1966, President Lyndon Johnson declared Waterloo, N.Y. as the official birthplace of Memo-
rial Day. However, the roots of Memorial Day likely run much deeper, as researchers at Duke University note that during the Civil War, organized women's groups in the south had begun to decorate the graves of fallen soldiers. Memorial Day as we know it today can likely be traced to Charleston, S.C., where teachers, missionaries and some members of the press gathered on May 1, 1865 to honor fallen
soldiers. During the Civil War, captured Union soldiers were held at the Charleston Race Course and hundreds died during captivity. Upon their deaths, soldiers were buried in unmarked graves. When the Civil War ended, the May Day gathering was organized as a memorial to all the men who had died during captivity. The burial ground was landscaped, and those freed as a result of the Civil War played an
Wednesday, May 25, 2016
integral role in the event at the Charleston Race Course. While the event in Charleston might have been the first Memorial Day-type celebration in the southern United States, General John A. Logan is often cited as inspiring similar events in the north. As commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, a veterans' organization for men who served in the Civil War, General Logan issued a proclamation just five days after the Charleston event
OUR DUTY, OUR HONOR, OUR COUNTRY FROM A SPEECH MADE BY CAPT. JOHN S. MCCAIN U.S. (REP) WHO REPRESENTS ARIZONA IN THE U.S. SENATE
As you may know, I spent five and one half years as a prisoner of war during the Vietnam War. In the early years of our imprisonment, the NVA kept us in solitary confinement or two or three to a cell. In 1971 the NVA moved us from these conditions of isolation into large rooms with as many as 30 to 40 men to a room. This was, as you can imagine, a wonderful change
and was a direct result of the efforts of millions of Americans on behalf of a few hundred POWs 10,000 miles from home. One of the men who moved into my room was a young man named Mike Christian. Mike came from a small town near Selma, Alabama. He didn't wear a pair of shoes until he was 13 years old. At 17, he enlisted in the US Navy. He later
earned a commission by going to Officer Training School. Then he became a Naval Flight Officer and was shot down and captured in 1967. Mike had a keen and deep appreciation of the opportunities this country, and our military, provide for people who want to work and want to succeed. As part of the change in treatment, the Vietnamese allowed some prisoners

A SPECIAL THANK YOU Memorial Day 2016
to receive packages from home. In some of these packages were handkerchiefs, scarves and other items of clothing. Mike got himself a bamboo needle. Over a period of a couple of months, he created an American flag and sewed it on the inside of his shirt. Every afternoon, before we had a bowl of soup, we would hang Mike's shirt on the wall of the cell and say the Pledge of Allegiance. I know the Pledge of Allegiance may not seem the most important part of our day now, but I can assure you that in that stark cell, it was indeed the most important
that called for Decoration Day to be observed annually across the country. Logan preferred the event not be held on the anniversary of any particular battle, and thus the day was observed for the first time on May 30. Celebrating the day in May also was significant to event organizers because May is a month when flowers are in bloom, making it easier for observers of the holiday to place flowers on the graves of fallen soldiers. In 1868, events were held at more than 180 and meaningful event. One day the Vietnamese searched our cell, as they did periodically, and discovered Mike's shirt with the flag sewn inside, and removed it. That evening they returned, opened the door of the cell, and for the benefit of all us, beat Mike Christian severely for the next couple of hours. Then, they opened the door of the cell and threw him in. We cleaned him up as well as we could. The cell in which we lived had a concrete slab in the middle on which we slept. Four naked light bulbs hung in each corner of the room. As I said, we tried to clean up Mike as well as we could. After the excitement died down, I looked in the corner of the room,
cemeteries in 27 states, and those figures nearly doubled in 1869. By 1890, every northern state officially recognized Decoration Day as a state holiday. But southern states honored their dead on a different day until after World War I, when the holiday was changed to recognize Americans who died in any war and not just the Civil War. Nearly every state now celebrates Memorial Day, a name for the holiday first used in 1882, on the last Monday in May. and sitting there beneath that dim light bulb with a piece of red cloth, another shirt and his bamboo needle, was my friend, Mike Christian. He was sitting there with his eyes almost shut from the beating he had received, making another American flag. He was not making the flag because it made Mike Christian feel better. He was making that flag because he knew how important it was to us to be able to pledge our allegiance to our flag and country. So the next time you say the Pledge of Allegiance, you must never forget the sacrifice and courage that thousands of Americans have made to build our nation and promote freedom around the world. You must remember our duty, our honor, and our country. "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic, for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
We Love Our Veterans!
Honoring and Remembering All Past and Present Veterans.
There are not enough words to thank the men and women who are serving and have served in the armed forces. We cannot express how much gratitude we give for the suffering and sorrow of those who lost their loved ones. Those brave men and women gave the most precious gift God gave us, “life”. The brave men and women served in our armed forces without question, complaint or regard to their own issues, every day to give us our rights and freedoms. As time passes, we hope everyone will remember those who are still standing and remember our fallen to honor and pay tribute to all who served in the armed forces. May God Bless Every One of You.

Steffy’s A Party Divided Ouch! Sanders has flat out said if he is elected president, Debbie Wasserman Schultz will not be the chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC). There's a lot of friction in the Democratic Party, which I find interesting because they should have learned something from the Republican Tea Party. Ms. Schultz, Barack Obama's handpicked puppet, has followed through with her boss (Obama) and has become another great divider of the Democrats. Hillar y is running around saying, "I will be the Democratic nominee." Not so fast, Ms. Clinton! And Billy is pointing out that his wife is being treated disrespectfully by the Sanders camp, in essence saying to Bernie, step aside and support "the queen." Flash back, folks, to 2008 when Hillary was saying the same thing Bernie's saying today. In other words, my point is it's not over till it's over! Although it's likely Hillary is right and she'll probably b e t h e D e m o c r at i c nominee, I wouldn't put my last dollar on it. In my personal opinion, even though I'm not in the Bernie camp, I think the Democratic Chair and Party establishment has been unfair to Sanders.
I'm looking at the delegate numbers, not super delegates, and it's close. As of last Sunday: Clinton delegates 1,768; Sanders delegates 1,494. Clinton super delegates 525; Sanders super delegates 39. There are only 712 delegates remaining so neither will reach the magic number with regular delegates. These numbers alone should give the Hillary supporters and the Democratic Party reason to pause. Is Hillary the people's choice? Plus on June 7, the last big primary day, I believe the numbers, minus super delegates, could flip. Time will tell. In the beginning of this election cycle I said this go-round it would be very different. It has been and I'm sorry to say it could get worse. So what's next? Hillary ads are using the woman card and targeting the female vote. Unfortunately, some portions of the ads have been taken out of context. And don't be shocked if Michelle Obama doesn't hit the campaign trail, looking to pull in the black female vote, especially the young voters where Hillary remains weak. While Democrats are suffering a great divide, with Bernie supporters saying they won't vote Hillary, when you put the numbers together they're showing Bernie Sanders
has a much greater chance of beating Trump by far over Hillary Clinton. Hillary said Sunday she thinks Trump should release his tax returns. I sort of think she should release all the emails and her Wall Street speeches. But leaving you with a thought on Socialism: Take a good look at Venezuela, the sixth richest oil nation in the world. This once progressive country has fallen into violence, a hamburger costs $170.00. Women are being asked to not use hair dryers because of lack of power. People are protesting against rationed food.

HONORING OUR SERVICE MEMBERS ON MEMORIAL DAY BY MS. LOWDER, SOCIAL SECURITY DISTRICT MANAGER IN MT. VERNON, IL
Traditionally, on Memorial Day we honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation. Social Security respects the heroism and courage of our military service members, and we remember those who have given their lives in defense of freedom. The unexpected loss of a service member is a difficult experience for the family. Social Security helps by providing benefits to protect service members’ dependents. Widows, widowers, and their dependent children may be eligible for Social Security survivors benefits. You can learn more about Social Security survivors benefits at www. socialsecurity.gov/survivors. It’s also important to recognize those service members who are still with us, especially those who have been wounded. Just as they served us, we have the obligation to serve them. Social Security has benefits to protect veterans when an injury prevents them from returning to active duty. Wou nd e d mi l it ar y
service members can also receive expedited processing of their disability claims. For example, Social Security will provide expedited processing of disability claims filed by veterans who have a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Compensation rating of 100 percent Permanent & Total (P&T). Depending on the situation, some family members of military personnel, including dependent children and, in some cases, spouses, may be eligible to receive benefits. You can get answers to commonly asked questions and find useful information about the application process at www. socialsecurity.gov/woundedwarriors. Service members can also receive Social Security in addition to military retirement benefits. The good news is that your military retirement benefit does not reduce your Social Security retirement benefit. Learn more about Social Security retirement benefits at www.socialsecurity.gov/ retirement. You may also want to visit the Military
Service page of our Retirement Planner, available at www.socialsecurity.gov/ retire2/veterans.htm. Service members are also eligible for Medicare at age 65. If you have health insurance from the VA or under the TRICARE or CHAMPVA programs, your health benefits may change, or end, when you become eligible for Medicare. Learn more about Medicare benefits at www. socialsecurity.gov/medicare. In acknowledgment of those who died for our country, those who served, and those who serve today, we at Social Security honor and thank you. Question: I was wounded while on military service overseas. What are the benefits for wounded warriors, and how can I apply? Answer: Through the Wounded Warrior program, Social Security expedites processing of disability claims of current military service members or veterans disabled while on active duty
on or after October 1, 2001. Also, service members and veterans who have a Veterans Administration compensation rating of 100% Permanent and Total (P&T) may receive expedited processing of applications for Social Security disability benefits. Keep in mind, this expedited process applies to only the application process. To be eligible for benefits, you must meet Social Security’s strict definition of “disability,” which means: • You must be unable to do substantial work because of your medical condition(s); and • Yo u r m e d i c a l condition(s) must have lasted, or be expected to last, at least one year or to result in death. You can apply online at www.socialsecurity.gov/ applyfordisability or call our toll-free number, 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778).
If you’re eligible for both your own retirement benefit and for benefits as a spouse, we will always pay you benefits based on your record first. If your benefit as a spouse is higher than your retirement benefit, you will receive a combination of benefits equaling the higher spouse's benefits. A spouse generally receives 50 percent of the retired worker's full benefit, unless the spouse begins collecting benefits before full retirement age. If the spouse begins collecting benefits before full retirement age, the amount of the spouse's benefit is reduced by a percentage based on the number of months before he or she reaches full retirement age. For example, based on a full retirement age of 66, if a spouse begins collecting benefits: • At age 65, the benefit amount would be about 46 percent of the retired worker's full benefit; • At age 64, it would be Question: about 42 percent; What is the benefit • At age 63, 37.5 percent; amount a spouse may be and entitled to receive? • At age 62, 35 percent. However, if a spouse is Answer:

taking care of a child who is either under age 16 or disabled and receives Social Security benefits on the same record, a spouse will get full benefits, regardless of age. Learn more by reading our Retirement publication at www.soc i a l s e c u r i t y. g o v / pubs/10035.html. Question: I work in retirement. How much can I earn and still collect full Social Security retirement benefits? Answer: Social Security uses the formulas below, depending on your age, to determine how much you can earn before we must reduce your benefit: • If you are younger than full retirement age: $1 in benefits will be deducted for each $2 you earn above the annual limit. For 2016, that limit is $15,720. • In the year you reach your full retirement age: $1 in benefits will be deducted for each $3 you earn above a different limit, but we count only earnings before the month you reach full retirement age. For 2016, this limit is $41,880. • Starting with the month you reach full retirement age: you will get your benefits with no limit on your earnings. Find out your full retirement age at www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/ageincrease.htm Question: My brother had an accident at work last year and is now receiving Social Security disability benefits. His wife and son also receive benefits. Before his accident, he helped support another daughter by a woman he never married. Is the second child entitled to benefits? Answer: The child may qualify for Social Security benefits even though your brother wasn't married to the second child's mother. The child’s caretaker should file an application on her behalf. For more information, read our publication, Benefits for Children, available at. www.socialsecurity. gov/pubs/EN-05-10085.pdf

Cooking With Lizzie
Chicken From Around The World (Part 1) Americans aren't the only people whose favorite meat is chicken. From Japan to Mexico you will find an array of delicious and healthy dishes. This week's and next week's columns will focus on some of my tried and true dishes.
Japanese Boiled Chicken SESAME SAUCE: 1 cup sesame seeds 1/2 cup Asian-style sesame oil 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce 2 T. Japanese rice vinegar or freshly squeezed lemon juice 2 quarts lightly seasoned homemade chicken stock, or 5 cups canned low-sodium broth and 3 cups water 4 boned and skinned chicken breast halves, cut into bite-sized pieces 2 or 3 medium-sized carrots, sliced on the diagonal 6 green onions, sliced on the diagonal into 2" pieces
1/2 cup heavy cream or sour cream 3/4 cup lightly seasoned homemade chicken stock, or 6 T. each canned low-sodium broth and water 1 small Napa or other Asian-type cabbage (about 1½ lbs.), leaves separated 1 bunch spinach (about 1 lb.), trimmed 1 lb. firm tofu, cut into 1/2" dice (optional) 4 to 6 oz. fresh enoki mushrooms (slender Japanese white mushrooms; optional) 2 to 3 cups hot steamed short-grain brown or white rice
To make sauce, place sesame seeds in heavy pan over medium-high heat and toast, stirring frequently, until golden. Remove from heat and pour onto plate to cool. Combine cooled sesame seeds and sesame oil in blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Add soy sauce, vinegar or lemon juice, cream, and stock, and blend until well mixed. Reserve. Pour chicken stock into large pan and place over medium heat. Bring to boil. Add chicken, reduce heat to simmer, and cook until chicken is tender but still moist, about 6 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon and reserve. Add vegetables to simmering stock one type at a time. Cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon before adding the next vegetable. Reserve each vegetable in a different bowl. Cook tofu in the same way until heated through and reserve. To serve, pour reserved sesame sauce into 6 individual sauce bowls and place alongside a small bowl of rice at each place setting. Serve the chicken, each vegetable, and the tofu in separate communal bowls, allowing diners to make selections. Eat the chicken, vegetables, and tofu with chopsticks, dipping each bite into the sesame sauce. After eating the chicken and vegetables, ladle some of the hot broth into 6 individual bowls. Add a bit of leftover sauce to the broth and drink the soup. Alternatively, combine the chicken, vegetables, and tofu in the broth and ladle the mixture into individual bowls. After eating the chicken and vegetables with chopsticks, add some of the leftover sauce to the broth and drink the soup. Serves 6.
Green Curry Thai Style Take a fast trip to Thailand
GREEN CURRY PASTE: 10 fresh small Serrano or other hot green chili peppers 3 medium-sized shallots, coarsely chopped 5 garlic cloves 1 (1/2") piece fresh or thawed frozen galangal root or ginger root, chopped 1 stalk fresh or dried lemon grass, bottom part only, chopped, or 1 T. freshly grated lemon zest 2 tsp. freshly grated lime zest CHICKEN CURRY: 6 boned chicken breast halves or 8 boned thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces 2 cups coconut milk
1 tsp. fresh shrimp paste, or 1/2 tsp. anchovy paste 2 tsp. ground coriander 2 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg 1 tsp. ground cumin 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 1/2 tsp. ground cloves 1/2 tsp. fennel seeds 1 tsp. salt 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (coriander) 1/4 cup peanut oil 1/4 cup vegetable oil 3 T. fish sauce, or 1 T. low-sodium soy sauce Fresh cilantro (coriander) leaves
To make curry paste, combine chilies, shallots, garlic, galangal or ginger, lemon grass or zest, and lime zest in food processor or blender and chop until well mixed. Add shrimp or anchovy paste, coriander, nutmeg, cumin, black pepper, cloves, fennel, salt, and cilantro. Puree until well blended. Add oil, a little at a time, pureeing until smooth. Transfer to airtight container, top with a little peanut oil, and store in refrigerator. Makes about 1 cup; keeps 3 to 4 weeks. To make chicken curry, heat 2 T. vegetable oil in skillet or saucepan over medium heat, add chicken, and saute until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Remove chicken with slotted spoon and reserve. Heat remaining 2 T. oil in the same pan, add about 1/4 cup curry paste, or to taste, and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in coconut milk and cook about 5 minutes. Add reserved chicken and fish sauce. Reduce heat to low and simmer until chicken is tender, about 8 to 10 minutes for breast meat or 12 to 15 minutes for thigh meat. Just before serving, stir in cilantro leaves and heat briefly. Serves 6 to 8 as part of a Thai dinner, or 4 as a main course. *** If you have a favorite recipe and want to share it with us, just send it in c/o The Shopper's Weekly, P.O.

Luffa Vase Q: My mother received a brown Luffa vase that measures 7 1/4 inches in about 1935 or 1936 for a birthday present. I have been offered $50 for it by a collector. — Rob, Rio Rancho, New Mexico A: The Luffa pattern was introduced by Roseville Pottery in 1934. It featured small yellow or white flowers and large green leaves on a wavy ridged background. Background colors are dominant green with brown accents or dominant brown with variegated green accents. According to "Warman's Roseville Pottery: Identification and Price Guide" by Denise Rago, your vase is valued in the $150-$250 range. *** Q: I have an old cabinet purchased from a London museum by an Indian chief who became a millionaire in Connecticut during the 1920s. The man died during the 1930s. Anything you can tell me about this cabinet would be appreciated. — V.A., Rio Rancho, New Mexico A: Your question is impossible to answer. Who was the chief ? Where was the museum? Is there any documentation? Without these facts, it is simply another piece of old furniture. If you suspect your cabinet is valuable, hire the services of a good professional appraiser. There are several excellent ones in Albuquerque who can help you. ***

Q: Several decades ago I worked for a highway crew in Nebraska, and occasionally while working in remote areas I would find an old electrical insulator. Although I didn't mean to become a collector, I did. I have about four dozen older insulators and would like to find out if they have much value. — Carl, Hastings, Nebraska A: The National Insulator Association was founded in 1973 and has members scattered throughout the country. This might be a good place to begin your search. Contact is Donald R. Briel, P.O. Box 188, Providence, UT 04332-0188. Check out the website at www.nia.org. *** Q: I have a Girl Scout camera that was given to me during the 1940s. It is in excellent condition, and I assume still works. What is it worth? — Cynthia, Shreveport, Louisiana A: Your camera is probably in a black case and was manufactured by the Herbert George Company. It would retail in the $50-$75 range. *** Write to Larry Cox in care of KFWS, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803, or send e-mail to questionsforcox@aol. com.

by Samantha Weaver • It was 20th-century television, film and culture critic John Leonard who made the following sage observation: "In the cellars of the night, when the mind starts moving around old trunks of bad times, the pain of this and the shame of that, the memory of a small boldness is a hand to hold." • You probably won't be surprised to learn that
a group of hedgehogs is known as a prickle. • In almost every state, there is a statute on the books making it illegal to jump off the top of an office building. Unsurprisingly, there's not much call to prosecute those who violate the law; district attorneys aren't in the habit of filing charges against corpses. However, in a few states, if you survive
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Home conditions still demand attention. Also, keep an open mind about a sudden question of trust involving a close friend. All the facts are not yet in. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) With summer just around the corner, travel begins to dominate your sign. Make plans carefully to avoid potential problems in the first half of June. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A romantic Libra sets a challenge that your “sensible” side might question, but your idealistic self finds the prospect too intriguing to resist. The choice is yours. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Those tense times in your personal life are just about over. Concentrate on reaffirming relationships. Your love of travel opens a surprising new opportunity. LEO (July 23 to August 22) The Big Cat usually loves to be in the center of things. But this week it might be wiser to watch and learn from the sidelines. A Pisces wants to make you purr. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) “New” is your watchword this week. Be open to new ideas, both on the job and in your personal life. A romantic Aries or Sagittarian beckons. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Some difficult family decisions have to be faced, but be sure to get more facts before you act. Be
jumping off a building and are tried and convicted of violating that law, you could be sentenced to death. • Those who study such things say that among social media users, those who use Twitter are less likely to smoke than users of other platforms. • Just as humans have distinctive fingerprints, dogs have nose prints — no two are the same. • You doubtless know of Theodore Geisel — better known as Dr. Seuss, the beloved author of such children's classics as "The Cat in the Hat,"
careful not to neglect your health during this trying time. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) You still need to support a loved one through a difficult time. Meanwhile, things continue to work out to your benefit in the workplace. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Aspects continue to favor expanding social opportunities. A Gemini reaches out to offer a chance for re-establishing a once-close relationship. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) There’s a potential for misunderstanding in both your job and your personal life. A full explanation of your intentions helps smooth things over. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You might be feeling restless on the job, but delay making any major moves until all the facts are in. A Scorpio has a surprising revelation. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Your business sense works to your advantage as you sort through the possibilities that are opening up. A Libra is Cupid’s best bet for your romantic prospects.

SIU TO HOST MAJOR SOLAR ECLIPSE WORKSHOP IN JUNE A total solar eclipse that will center on Southern Illinois is still more than a year away, but in astronomical terms that’s only a blink of an eye. So with this huge event drawing near, Southern Illinois University Carbondale next month will play host to major workshop that invites the general public to mix with and listen to some of the country’s leading solar scientists and amateur skywatchers. In the process, they will learn more about how to appreciate and enjoy this rare happening. The American Astronomical Society will hold its Eclipse 2017 Workshop June 10-11. It will feature speakers from NASA, the National Solar Observatory and other organizations. Registration is required to attend, but a good portion of the program is free and open to the public. To learn more about, and to register for the conference, go here. Bob Baer, specialist in the Department of Physics, said even if the names are not familiar to the public, people are most likely familiar with the work of many of the schedule speakers. For instance, Fred Espenak – known by his fans as “Mr. Eclipse” – conducts eclipse timing predictions for NASA and runs the site eclipsewise.com, which is
popular among buffs, Baer said. Xavier Jubier is the top Google interactive eclipse mapmaker that show where the sun will be blotted out in totality, among other things. “If you're using a map with a geolocation tool to find amounts of totality for your location, it's probably Xavier's map,” Baer said. Michael Zeiler runs the site GreatAmericanEclipse.com and creates highly detailed, printable eclipse maps, Baer said. Another highlight will be Michelle Nichols, master educator at Chicago's Adler Planetarium, who will run a workshop promoting simple sun- and moonrelated activities for families using common household materials. Another huge highlight is the much-anticipated announcement from NASA on how it intends to cover the eclipse, as well as how those plans may impact SIU and the region. Both the NASA Eclipse 2017 group and NASA Edge – a video podcast that focuses on missions, technologies and space-related events involving the space agency – will send representatives to the workshop where they will discuss plans for their eclipse 2017 coverage from the SIU campus, Baer said. Officials say
NASA likely will reach a huge global audience with its coverage. The Adler Planetarium personnel also will be on hand to discuss some of that institution’s plans for partnering with SIU in eclipse programming and events. The first day of the two-day conference generally will include the most public-friendly information that will be useful but mostly non-technical in nature. The second day is open to the public, as well, though registration is required and the talks will contain more technical information. “For anyone wanting to just watch the eclipse on their own, maybe as a home school group, with a church group, or just with your own family, this is a great workshop to attend and find out how to do that safely,” Baer said. “We have laid out the program such that we have some specialized talks running opposite more generalized workshops and vice versa so people can tailor their day to their own needs.” The official poster for the event, along with matching eclipse glasses, also will be for sale at the conference and can be ordered when registering. Tyler Nordgren, the artist who created the poster and professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Redlands, will be

through, so we are all going to feel it,” she said. Following the AAS conference at SIU, Wheeles-Smith said her office, along with the Carbondale Chamber of Commerce, will begin holding public meetings looking at how the community and local businesses can prepare for the events. Southern Illinois Economic Development is also planning such a meeting looking at how the area can leverage the event. That meeting is set for June 14 at John A. Logan College. The conference at SIU will be one in a series of such events the AAS is holding along the path of the eclipse. Baer said the organization and the university are hoping it will raise awareness in a broad segment of the local population. “Because we are so close to the eclipse now, just over a year, we are going to start focusing on more timely information in this workshop and get into details for different groups such as teachers, communities, the tourism industry, and regional planners,” Baer said. “However, we will have a lot of basic information on how people can just enjoy watching the eclipse.” The second day of the conference will include scientific talks and discussions on the Citizen CATE Experiment (Continental America Telescopic Eclipse). The
effort will see SIU cooperate with about 60 other teams recording the eclipse as it traverses the United States. The National Solar Observatory will use the data collected to assemble a visual record of the total eclipse, in an attempt to capture elusive, moving pictures of the sun’s corona, which is usually obscured by the sun’s brightness. Matt Penn, associate astronomer at the NSO, along with Baer and retired SIU faculty member Fred Isberner, will talk about the project and their roles in it during the Citizen CATE workshop. “The workshop is intended for current or potential volunteer observers for the Citizen CATE Experiment,” Baer said. “The hands-on portion of the workshop will be a group solar observation using the CATE prototype telescope that will be used to observe the 2017 eclipse. In addition to the public portions, there will be closed discussion sessions for conference participants only.” Cost to attend the full conference, including all closed sessions and dinners, is $180 and $80 for students. Members of the general public are invited to attend all open sessions free of charge, but should register in advance. Snacks will be available for those attending.

on hand to sign the posters, as well. SIU is gearing up to play a major role in the Aug. 21, 2017 eclipse, which will feature the first total solar eclipse over the mainland United States since 1979. The eclipse viewing path and shadow that day will sweep across the country from northwest to southeast, with its point of greatest duration a few miles south of Carbondale. Officials expect some 30,000 to 50,000 people to descend on the area for the happening. The university’s planning, led by a campuscommunity committee, has been underway for more than a year. Not only that, but a second such event is due on April 8, 2024. The intersection of the two eclipse paths is just south of Carbondale over Cedar Lake. No other place in the world will offer the opportunity to observe these two eclipses from the same ground-based spot. Cinnamon Wheeles-Smith, executive director of Carbondale Tourism, said the impact will be felt strongly throughout Southern Illinois. As the first eclipse draws nearer, her office is fielding increasing numbers of calls from people seeking information about the event. “The eclipse will affect 15 Illinois counties as it passes
