Community Thanksgiving sees largest crowd yetBy HEIDI LITCHFIELD
MORRIS – Rich Meyer andLuella Kellogg met in 2006when they started exercis-ing together. Instead of beingalone this Thanksgiving, thetwo decided to enjoy Thanks-giving together at Al’s Dinerin Morris.
“I think it’s wonderfulto be able to sit with a goodfriend, and today is a goodday to do it,” Meyer said.
This is Kellogg’s fourthyear enjoying Thanksgiv-ing at Al’s where communi-ty members Phil Ortiz, GaryRockis, Jim Baum and Al Lo-pez have come together withI Care International to serveThanksgiving dinner to thosewho don’t want to be alone onThanksgiving.
“My kids have somethingelse to do today, and I don’twant to cook,” Kellogg said.“There [are] no leftovers, nocleanup this way.”
Meyer said it was hisfirst time coming and wasn’taware the event was heldeach year until Kellogg invit-ed him to join her after shefound out he was going to bealone on Thanksgiving, aswell.
The free Thanksgivingmeal started 12 years ago togive the community a place togo. The meal is served by vol-unteers and Lopez’s familymembers. There is no bill forthe traditional Thanksgivingmeal or the service.
Bulmaro Torres, a sopho-more at Morris CommunityHigh School, spent his dayhelping serve the steadystream of people who filedinto his uncle’s restaurant.
“I wanted to be helpful tothe people who come here,”Torres said. “It’s been busytoday, because sometimespeople don’t have family andthey need help from others.”
Melinda Cisco spent thisyear serving others, as well.It was her first time at Al’sfor Thanksgiving.
“I just wanted to helpout, we always eat here andit’s good that people know
the community does this forthem,” Cisco said.
Selma Irwin came fromJoliet to have Thanksgivingwith Mike Painter and Sha-ron LaFontaine who havebeen coming to dinner for thepast five years at the down-town Morris restaurant.
“It’s always very good,”Painter said. “I don’t haveroom in my small apartmentto cook and serve a turkey,and this beats cooking athome.”
Lopez starts preparing forthe holiday feast the day be-fore prepping nine, 18- to 20-pound turkeys with all thetrimmings to feed those whojust need somewhere to go.
“This is the biggest crowdwe’ve ever served,” Lopezsaid. “We have enough toserve 190 plates, and we arealmost out of food.”
He said while no reserva-tions have been required thepast 12 years, he may have tostart because as of yesterdayhe only knew of about 36 peo-
ple who were coming to eat.One long table at the back
of the diner was filled withhis family who all come toenjoy the day together whileserving others.
His Thanksgiving Day
starts at 5 a.m. and goes wellinto the early evening ashe cleans up from the day’sevents, but he said he doesn’tmind.
“I’ll keep doing it as longas I am here, because a lot of
people have no place to go, nofamily,” he said.
He said he is especial-ly grateful to everyone whomakes pies and bread and do-nates to the cause each year,freeing up some of his time.

Technology Committee approves GIS data sharing for nonprofits agreementBy NICK SAMUEL
MORRIS – Local nonprofitorganizations are a step closerto being able to use Geograph-ical Information Systems datafor free thanks to a proposedsharing agreement.
The Technology/ElectionsCommittee members unani-mously approved Tuesday theGIS data sharing for nonprof-its agreement, which is set togo before the full board for ap-proval Dec. 9.
C o u n t y B o a r d C h a i r -man Ron Severson said GIScharges companies for mak-ing maps, and previous datasharing agreements allow GISto share data with governmentagencies for free.
“They just wanted to in-clude nonprofits. With thisagreement, they can give thatstuff out for free,” Seversonsaid Wednesday.
Committee Chairman Da-
vid Welter said there’s noreason why the county wouldwant to charge nonprofits andthe community for data. Headded the county has workedwith the Morris Fire Protec-tion and Ambulance Districtto provide maps to the depart-ment.
David Ostrander, GIS co-ordinator for Grundy County,said GIS sells data at 35 centsper parcel. He added GrundyCounty has 2,600 parcels.
He decided to propose thenew nonprofit agreement andpresent it to the committeeafter last week he received aparcel data request from Brit-taney Ross of Elevate Energy,a Chicago-based nonprofit thatspecializes in electricity pric-ing and efficiency programs.
“She got the ball rolling byasking for this data,” Ostrand-er said. “It’s the first timeanyone from a nonprofit hasasked.”
Ostrander said the agree-
ment will allow nonprofits tohave a whole copy of a dataset so staff can run their ownanalysis. The coordinator add-ed he has had data requestsfor different county boarddistricts and anything that ismappable.
“This has to do with datathat can be visualized in amap, such as parcel and realestate information, parcelboundaries, addresses, taxcodes, city and rural zoning,all that geographical specificinformation,” Ostrander said.
Jeanine Otte, manager of
marketing and strategy forElevate Energy, said the non-profit uses GIS data to im-prove energy efficiency designand implementation for com-munities.
“If a municipality knowscertain buildings are usingmore energy than other build-ings, it can prioritize energyuse for those buildings. It’sa smart use of resources andsaves money for residents,”Otte said Wednesday.
Ostrander said the datasharing agreement has a stip-ulation that states the organi-
zation has to be performinga specific project for GrundyCounty or a governmentalunit. He added organizationsaren’t allowed to sell the data.
Information on the ElevateEnergy project was not imme-diately available, but Otte saidthe project would be related toimproving energy efficiency.
If the County Board ap-proves the agreement, Os-trander said he will sit downwith representatives from El-evate Energy to ensure theywill follow the stipulationswhen using the shared data.

Gegenheimer to receive official letterBy KRIS STADALSKY
Shaw Media Correspondent
MINOOKA – The MinookaConsolidated School District201 board voted to have a let-ter drafted to SuperintendentAl Gegenheimer respondingto allegations of unprofes-sional conduct at a priorboard meeting.
The board of education vot-ed, 5-1, to have the district’sattorney draft the letter at aspecial meeting Wednesdaynight, following a closed ses-sion of over an hour. Boardmember Kevin Hannon wasabsent.
Board member John Clu-cas voted against the motion.
Following the meeting,board President Jim Satori-us said the official correspon-dence will be a letter of clar-
ification and a directive offuture conduct.
District 201 Attorney BarbErikson said the letter is tech-nically a reprimand becausethe board approved a motionNov. 20 to formally reprimandthe superintendent.
“The focus of the directiveis to move forward,” Eriksonsaid. “It’s not negative in na-ture, it’s constructive.”
The controversy startedat the Oct. 22 board meetingover a survey that was to bedistributed to parents, viateachers at an upcoming par-ent/teacher conference.
Board member KristanCrouch was asked to create afirst draft of the survey pri-or to that meeting, Satoriussaid after Wednesday’s meet-ing. There also was inputfrom other board members,
he said.“There was some collabo-
ration of the survey with theboard on it,” Satorius said. “Itneeded a lot more.”
It was during the boarddiscussion Oct. 22 that thingsgot heated between Gegen-heimer and Crouch, as wellas between other board mem-bers.
Board members chose notto comment about the inci-dent or the action. Gegen-heimer said he did not wantto comment on it either.
The actual survey was nev-er released by the board of ed-ucation, Satorius said. It willnow be re-worked and collab-orated on with the teacher’sunion.
When asked if the issueis now over, Satorius said,“That should be the end of it.”

Grundy organizations participating in Giving TuesdayBy HEIDI LITCHFIELD
MORRIS – The CommunityFoundation of Grundy Countyhas partnered with nonprof-it agencies that serve GrundyCounty for “Giving Tuesday.”
“It goes with ThanksgivingThursday, Black Friday, ShopLocal Saturday and Cyber Mon-day,” said Julie Buck, execu-tive director of the CommunityFoundation of Grundy County.
On Tuesday, a global initia-tive will ask charities, families,businesses, community centersand students around the worldto come together for one com-mon purpose: “to celebrate gen-erosity and to give.”
In Illinois, Donors Forumis coordinating this initiative,and has one bold goal: $12 mil-lion raised by Illinois nonprof-its from 100,000 individual do-nors – in one day.
Buck said the hope locallyis that those planning a year-end gift to their favorite chari-
ty will make it Tuesday to addto the day’s total, to help reachthis goal.
A page on the CommunityFoundation website lists the lo-cal charities participating.
New Community ChristianChurch pastor Kevin Yandellsaid the church joined the Giv-ing Tuesday push because heloves the concept behind it.
“The concept caught myattention,” he said. “We doBlack Friday and Cyber Mon-day. This gives us a special dayto think about giving. Giving
back is what the holidays areabout.”
His congregation is goodabout giving, and it has dis-cussed how the money raisedTuesday will be used, Yandellsaid.
“We’ve earmarked it backto the community,” he said.
“We’ve been increasing ourfund to give back to the commu-nity when needed.”
The fund has paid rent fora Grundy County Housing Au-thority resident and sponsoreddifferent community fundrais-ers, among other things, Yan-dell said.
Seventeen organizations areparticipating in Grundy Coun-ty and offer a variety of givingopportunities no matter whereyou like to donate your money.
Organizations include BigBrothers Big Sisters of Will andGrundy Counties, Universityof Illinois Extension, CatholicCharities and Grundy CountyFarm Bureau.
Tami Sender with People forChannahon Parks Foundationsaid her organization got onboard and will use money col-lected toward a $2 million capi-tal campaign to complete workon Arroyo Trails, a 75-acre parkthat will serve residents at nocharge.

CalendarTuesday is an interesting con-cept,” Sender said. “Instead ofspending money shopping forgifts or for yourself, you cangive to persons in need or toyour favorite not-for-profit. I re-ally like the concept of giving toothers in need.”
Easter Seals Joliet Regionexecutive director Deb Condotti
said she thinks it’s important togive people the opportunity togive and focusing the attentionon Giving Tuesday makes senseespecially during the holidayseason.
“We so appreciate charitablegifts of all levels,” Condotti said.
Easter Seals will use giftsgiven Tuesday for their AutismServices which is funded byphilanthropy, United Way andpublic support.
Buck said many charities of-fer online donation collection,in addition to in-person collec-tion, for Tuesday, so she com-piled a list. It includes websitelinks as well as phone numbersand addresses of the organiza-tions participating.
Buck said Wednesday thefoundation will announce thetotal raised from the initiativeboth in Grundy County and inIllinois.

Morris native Reents to guideWilmington in Class 3A title gameBy DRAKE SKLEBA
Shaw Media Correspondent
WILMINGTON – Wilming-ton athletic director Joe Barbichas added responsibilities thisweek as the undefeated Wild-cats football team travels to theUniversity of Illinois.
At 4 p.m. today, Wilmington(13-0) will take on undefeat-ed Williamsville (13-0) for theIHSA Class 3A state footballchampionship.
Among Barbic’s many re-sponsibilities this week was toround up the members of the2014 “Wilmington Experience”for their trip down Route 47this morning. That means get-ting all the Wilmington Har-ley-Davidson club members,the Illinois Artillery group thatprovides the ear-shatteringCivil War cannon for Wildcathome games, the WilmingtonFire Department, high schoolmarching band, cheerleadersand pompom squads all togeth-er.
It also includes the 5,742 res-idents of Wilmington, who pro-vide the pregame festivities atWildcat home football games.
The Class 3A title game isshaping up as a classic. The un-defeated Bullets, champions ofthe Sangamo Conference, haveoutscored their 13 opponents,452-92. On Saturday, Williams-ville scored three times in thefourth quarter and crusheddownstate Mount Carmel, 42-8,in a semifinal in Williamsville.Williamsville has outscoredits four playoff foes, 139-38. Inthe second round, New Berlin(8-3) gave the Bullets a scare be-fore falling, 14-10.
“That’s what state cham-pionship games are for,” saidWilmington coach Jeff Re-ents, a 1988 Morris graduatewho starred as a linebackerfor the Redskins. “Two unde-feated football teams battlingfor a state championship. I amthrilled for the kids, our schooland our great community
“Back in August, at the90-degree two-a-days, I knewwe had an outstanding groupthat could have a great regularseason. To go 13-0 and make itto state, one needs some breaks,and I feel we received a gooddraw.
“Nonetheless, we have
played outstanding footballthis fall. Our offense has beenunstoppable. Defensively, wehave played at a high level allyear. Our special teams havebeen very good, too. It would begreat if we can play well Fridayand bring home a state champi-onship.”
Williamsville is led by6-foot-2, 210-pound senior quar-terback Luke Bleyer. He hasthrown for more than 2,500yards and 20 touchdowns. Se-nior wide receiver Danny Da-kin has caught 45 passes formore 800 yards and 10 touch-downs. Sophomore Jace Frank-lin leads the ground attackwith more than 850 yards and14 touchdowns.
On defense, seniors NickCox and Kyle Kent both havemore than 100 tackles. Kenthas seven sacks and Cox six. Se-nior John Karras has 11 sacks.
“Williamsville runs a spreadoffense,” said Reents, who dou-bles as the Wildcats’ defensivecoordinator. “They’re good atthe skill positions. They canrun and pass, and they defi-nitely have good speed. Theyhave a state championship typeof team. This is the one teamwe will have played that is thesame as we are from a speedstandpoint.
“They do a lot of reading outof their spread. They remindme a little of Manteno. Theyprefer to run, but they alsohave the weapons to throw theball.”
Wilmington has outscored
its 13 opponents, 467-152. Inthe playoffs the Wildcats, haveoutscored opponents, 159-39.Included was a heart-stopping20-19 quarterfinal win over St.Joseph-Ogden.
Wilmington is led bythe “NickCat” backfield ofClass 3A all-stater Nick McWil-liams and junior Nick Haw-kins. McWilliams has rushedfor 1,342 yards and scored his23rd and 24th touchdownsin Saturday’s 46-13 semifinalwin over Byron. Hawkins hasrushed for 1,109 yards with 13touchdowns.
Senior quarterback MasonSouthall is a threat with hisarm and legs. Southall has runfor more than 500 yards andthrown for more than 800. All-stater Alex Zlomie and seniorJoe Mann, the leading tacklerfrom his inside linebacker post,are Southall’s favorite targets.
The offensive line of tack-les Derek Kirchner and BaileyBoswell, guards Alex Sirianiand Kyal Davis and center BenStuder has played well.
Zlomie, along with Southall,anchors the Wildcat secondary.Kirchner and senior nose tack-le Mason Del Angel have feast-ed on enemy quarterbacks inthe postseason.

After the game
Here’s what some of the Wildcatsplayers said after the semifinal winof Byron:Ziomie: “We’re very proud to be
the first Wilmington team to go tostate since 2003. We want to bringhome the state championship.”Mann: “Here at Wilmington it is
all about team. Solo achievementsare secondary.”McWilliams: “It’s unreal, amazing
to be going to state.”Nick Hawkins: ‘It’s going to be a
great experience for us.”Del Angel: “It’s ridiculous. When
I was a little kid, I dreamed of goingdownstate. It’s really happening.”

“We’ve just got to stay confi-dent and stay on top of it.
When we’re in a rhythm like that, wecan’t allow ourselves to get out of it,no matter what’s going on.”
– Bears DE Jared Allenon the defense’s struggles
after the first quarter
OFFENSE CAN’T SUSTAIN SUCCESSBy KEVIN FISHBAIN
DETROIT – The first-quar-ter scoring drought ended. TheBears jumped out to a 14-3 lead,and all seemed well Thursday atFord Field.
Could they pull off the upset?Nope.Instead, Detroit outscored
the Bears, 31-3, the rest of theway, en route to a 34-17 win, andthe Bears’ offense that seemedto have the right plan early onagainst a stout Lions defense didwhat it’s done so many timesthis season: stalled.
“Penalties, we shot ourselvesin the foot a couple of times ear-ly in the game,” tight end Mar-tellus Bennett said. “Had somedrives going, then a couple hold-ings. Different penalties on theoffense really set us back, putus behind the chains. What doyou call on a third-and-20, third-and-17?”
Five times in the loss, theBears faced a third down andmore than 10 yards to go, con-verting only one of those situ-ations. The penalty that stungthe most was Roberto Garza’sholding penalty in the secondquarter, negating a 22-yard gain
by Bennett to the Lions’ 20 whenthe Bears had the lead.
“We got down in there withthe throw to Marty and had apenalty that took us back,” coachMarc Trestman said. “If you getbehind the chains against a de-
fense like this, it’s difficult.”For the most part, the Bears
did a good job neutralizing de-fensive tackle Ndamukong Suh,as he did not record a tackle, butwhen a young, banged-up de-fense couldn’t stop quarterback
Matthew Stafford and receiverCalvin Johnson, the Bears’ of-fense couldn’t keep up.
“We had to try to get the ballout on the edges just to kind ofswitch it up a little bit. Yeah, itworked great in the first half, we
didn’t come out and execute likewe needed to in the second half,”left tackle Jermon Bushrod said.“Again, I’ll give you the samespeech every time, we have mo-ments where we move it, thenwe get stalled and then do whatwe had to do.”
The Bears are averaging 21.1points a game, 21st in the league,a year after finishing second inthe NFL in points.
They had a good drive afterhalftime, going 63 yards on 13plays, but couldn’t convert athird-and-3 from Detroit’s 17-yard line and settled for a fieldgoal.
“We just didn’t do enough,and we couldn’t overcome theadversity that we had during thecourse of the game and match-ing score for score,” Trestmansaid. “We couldn’t do that.”
The Bears ran the ball withMatt Forte a total of five times,an incredibly low number, evenagainst the league’s best rundefense, but Trestman believeswwall the quick throws are anextension of the run game.
However, like the rest of theoffense that everyone saw clickin the first quarter, Trestmansaid of those passes, “We justcouldn’t sustain it.”

Jay Cutler calls the play in a second half huddle during the game against Tampa Bay on Sunday at Soldier Field. TheBears lost to the Detroit Lions, 34-17, on Thanksgiving in Detroit.
BEARS EXTRA3 things that worked
1 First-quarter offense:The Bears finally ended
their first-quarter scoringdrought, and looked greatearly on with the short-passing game. Jay Cutlercompleted 7 of 8 passesand threw two touchdownpasses to Alshon Jeffery.
2 Punting: Rookie PatO’Donnell had his best
punting game of the sea-son, or at least since thewin in Atlanta – maybe it’ssomething about domes?His six punts went for a netaverage of 45.7 yards, tyinga season-high. O’Donnell’sgross punting average was48.0 yards, and he pinnedthe Lions inside the 20 threetimes.
3 First-half run defense:The Bears were able
to get the Lions into somethird-and-long situations,favorable for a banged-updefense, because of stoutplay up front early on, hold-ing Joique Bell to 16 yardson eight carries beforehalftime.
3 that didn’t
1 Second quarter: Aftera great start, the Bears
couldn’t stop the Lions inthe second, allowing 21points. Matthew Staffordwas 14 of 16 passing for 196yards and two scores in thequarter. The offense didn’thelp, either, punting twicewhen given opportunities toextend or retake the lead.
2 Pass coverage: KyleFuller, likely not at 100
percent, was overmatchedfacing Johnson, and hedidn’t get a ton of help fromthe rest of the defensivebacks, either. Stafford foundreceivers and running backsopen in the Bears’ defensewith ease, completing 75.6percent of his passes to ninedifferent receivers. Johnsonhad 11 catches for 146 yardsand two scores.
3 Running game: Weirdto see something
involving Matt Forte in thiscategory, but the Bearsclearly didn’t think theycould run the ball, andthen fell behind to boot. Hefinished tying a career-low
with five carries for 6 yards,and the Bears rushed for 13yards, tied for the third-few-est in franchise history.
3 moments thatmattered
1 With a 14-10 leadmidway through the
second quarter, Cutler foundMartellus Bennett for a 22-yard gain to the Lions’ 20.However, Roberto Garza heldNdamukong Suh, nullifyingthe play. Cutler threw back-to-back incomplete passes,and the Bears had to punt.The Lions finished the halfwith 14 consecutive points.
2The defense that hadbeen abysmal in the
second quarter opened thesecond half by forcing athree-and-out. The offensehad it at midfield, facingsecond-and-8, and Ben-nett dropped a pass. On thenext play, Cutler went forMarquess Wilson down thesideline, who made a nicecatch, but was just out ofbounds. The Bears punted,and the Lions put the gameaway on their next drive.
3 Trailing 24-17, theBears had the Lions in
a third-and-4 from Detroit’s11-yard line after a greatpunt. Stafford thread theneedle to Golden Tate, butit was a pass that DemontreHurst should have knockeddown, if not intercepted. Heread the play and was rightthere, just got boxed out byTate and missed the ball. TheLions got first downs on fiveof their next six plays, thenscored the game-sealingtouchdown to start thefourth quarter.
What now?
Record: 5-7What it means: Any hopeshad for a miraculous playoffrun are all but over. TheBears fall three games backof the Lions in the NFC North.What’s next:The Bearsdon’t get a long weekend,as they’ll get back to workSunday before hosting TonyRomo, Dez Bryant and theCowboys on Thursday night.

GAMES ON HIGH SCHOOL CUBE
There are always things for which to be thankfulNovember finally decided
to let us share in its famousholiday. The Thanksgiving cel-ebration arrived and passed.My mind almost can’t handlethe realization that from coast-to-coast nearly all Americanssat down, ate, and watchedfootball. The simple fact thatwe live in a country where thatis even possible is somethingto be grateful for.
For most folks, that scenar-io played out once again, andit will in the following years.But for all too many, that isn’twhat this holiday felt like.For some, this could be thefirst Thanksgiving alone. Forothers, it might just be anotherreminder of what basic needsthey don’t have. And stillothers might ask the question,“What do I have to be thankfulfor?”
The Reverend Robert Sathu-
ri, from the United MethodistChurch, started his Communi-ty Thanksgiving message onTuesday evening saying weshould be thankful for the littlethings, even the automaticdishwasher.
I couldn’t help but smile.He is absolutely right. It isall too easy to get caught upin the things that we don’tpossess. We pass right throughthe outdoors everyday. Thereare moments that we reallyappreciate it. There are a lot ofmoments though, when we areso caught up in the little an-noyances, that we forget abouthow blessed we are with whatGod has surrounded us with.
Each morning I am thank-ful for the vast universe welive in. I step out of my housein complete darkness andlook to the heavens. I pause,everyday, and look to the stars.
I take a moment to admiretheir beauty and watch themsparkle. In that instant my dayis set in order knowing that Iam just a very small piece ina giant plan. I am thankful forthat little mental adjustmentbefore I head to work.
I am thankful for the wildthings we are surrounded by.I admire the whitetail deer,crossing the road in front ofme. He pauses, cranes hisneck my way and watches meapproach. Then he continueson his way. His instincts deter-mine his routine, just like hispredecessors for millennia be-fore him. He is a beautiful crea-ture, God’s creature, which we
often take for granted.I am thankful for the haunt-
ing hoot of a great horned owl.The mysterious, often heardbut hardly seen, predator isking of the night. Perfectly cre-ated for stalking the darknesswith stealthy efficiency. Eachtime his call cuts through thebreaking dawn my skin crawlswith goose bumps. That specialmoment is something to appre-ciate and cherish.
I am thankful for all thehours I spent with family thissummer fishing. My phone isfull of photos taken. Each oneis a memory that beckons backto warmer days, longer hoursof sunshine, and thousandsof laughs. The simple act ofcasting a line together is sucha powerful magnet that drawsfamily and friends togeth-er. I will never take that forgranted.
I am thankful for longevening walks with my wife.Passing by nature, holdingher hand, and letting her talkabout her day is a gift. It costsnothing, yet means everything.Only the outdoors can providesuch a setting for couples tostay strong together and let thestresses of the day melt away.
Yes, there are things to bethankful for. Even when ourlives seem to be falling apart,the bills piling up, or medi-cal woes stressing us to thepoint of breaking, we can findsomething to be joyful in. Looksmall. Look all around. Findthe constants in your life andenjoy them.
I hope you have had a won-derful Thanksgiving.

DR. CUMBA –A MORRIS GEMTo the Editor:For the past 40 years, I have
had the pleasure to witnessDr. Cesario Cumba wear manyhats. My journey with himbegan when I was in first gradeand met my best friend for life,his oldest daughter Mayette.As anyone can relate, in gradeschool I spent countless hoursat Mayette’s house. What Iremember most about mysleepovers at Cumba’s housewas hearing Dr. Cumba leavein the middle of the night toattend to sick patients in needat the hospital. Also, I remem-ber hearing him early in themorning, again, leave beforedawn to go scrub in for surgery.Back then, I was amazed by hisdedication to his profession andhave witnessed that dedicationin all aspects of his life.I have seen him wear the
father hat and as of late thegrandfather hat. All who knowDr. Cumba know that he is 100percent dedicated to his family,and that is where he finds truejoy. He has supported his chil-
dren through every single thingthey have wanted to explore:Law school, medical school,private university’s businessprograms, large wedding cele-brations, fun family vacations… Dr. Cumba knows how towork hard and also how torelax, especially with his wife,four wonderful children, and 12grandchildren.I have seen Dr. Cumba, myself
as a patient. He has been myone and only family doctor formy entire life. The compassionhe shows to his patients isheartwarming. He provides hispatients with excellent careand compassion.I have been a pharmaceutical
rep for 23 years and I used tosee Dr. Cumba as a customerof mine for part of that time.If you were to ask any rep
in the industry, they wouldsay that Dr. Cumba is a fair,competent, respectful, disci-plined, hard-working, and kinddoctor to call on. I bring thisup because back in the day hewould ask companies to donatemedicine for his mission tripsto the Philippines, where he andLilia would go to serve others inneed … always serving others.During this Thanksgiving
week, I wanted to stop and givethanks that our communityhas such a fine physician. I amhonored to know Dr. Cumba asa father to my best friend, asa personal doctor of mine, asa customer back in the day, asa servant to others, and mostimportantly, as a lifelong friend.

OPINIONPicking up theslack for women
St. Vincent’s Hospital wentfrom lifesaver to bankrupt toclosed to construction site forluxury condominiums in whatseemed the twinkle of an eyein lower Manhattan.
Its end created a void. It wasa place of births, last breaths,long and grueling nights, closecalls and emergency care.
Its closure is made no lesstraumatic by the memoryof words spoken by St. JohnPaul II when he visited theseshores in 1987. He told Catholichealth care workers: “Yourhealth care ministry ... is oneof the most significant serviceswhich the Catholic Churchoffers to society in the name ofJesus Christ.”
But it is precisely becauseof that service that RonaldRak found himself walking theemptied halls of St. Vincent’sfour years ago. Rak is the CEOand president of St. Peter’sHealthcare System in NewJersey. What he saw saddenedhim: derelict operating rooms,empty offices, vacant hallways;a place of aid and healing be-ginning to uneasily vanish.
The Gianna Center caresfor women in a way that isforeign to much of health caretoday. The scandal of women’shealth care is that problemsaren’t solved, complicationsaren’t investigated and dis-pensing quick fixes and pillsare all too often the protocol.But Gianna is somethingdifferent.
Rak went immediately tothe Gianna Center that day,and St. Peter’s would soonbring Gianna under its wing,seeing it as not only “criticalto the care of women in NewYork City,” but as possibly the“genesis” of something more,Rak says.
That was the beginning ofthe National Gianna Center forWomen’s Health, which hasexpanded from Manhattan to
14 cities, building a businessmodel and even undertakinglegislative outreach so thatalternative health care, rootedin Catholic social teaching but(as the Gospel teaches), notexclusive to Catholics, can beaccessible.
The Gianna Center existsin no small part to serve as anopen door to women facingunplanned pregnancies, offer-ing support and counsel thatoften goes by the wayside insecular hospitals. The Giannamessage, Dr. Anne Nolte,Gianna’s director, explained,is: “We’re going to make sureyou’re healthy and your babyis healthy and do whatever ittakes to help you get throughthis.”
Rak points to the possibil-ity of transforming women’shealth care in America. Thisfrom a Church, he pointsout, that is still often paint-ed as anti-women, even asmodern popes have stressedthe importance of the femaleperspective. I don’t expect tosee it on the cover of a lead-ing women’s glossy anytimesoon, but Gianna might just beleading a whole new feministmovement, one, with doctorslike Anne Nolte, in a revivedtradition of the sisterhood thatbuilt St. Vincent’s in the firstplace.

CROSSWORD SUDOKU BRIDGE by Phillip Alder
CELEBRITY CIPHER
PUZZLES
Australian Bridge (australian-bridge.com) changed owners earlierthis year. It is now published andedited by Brad Coles. Appearingbimonthly, it contains the typicaltournament reports, bidding hands topractice with your partner, and a bid-ding panel on which experts answerfive questions. But it also has a higherpercentage of instructional materialthan most magazines.
This deal was provided by DannyRoth from England. How should Southplan the play in six spades after Westleads the heart queen?
North’s jump to five spades wasslam-invitational. In the United States,North (if employing transfer bids andSmolen) would have rebid an artificialfour hearts to send the same mes-sage. This has the advantages thatthe partnership can stop in game andthat the opener can use some form ofBlackwood. (And after two no-trump- three clubs - three hearts, threespades invites a slam in hearts.)
South starts with only 10 tricks:four spades, two hearts, threediamonds and one club. The best lineis to take two club ruffs in the Southhand to get the spade-trick total upto six.
Here, with spades 3-2, it does notmatter where declarer wins the firsttrick, but just in case trumps are 4-1,he should take it with his heart kingand lead the club king.
Suppose that East wins with hisace and returns a heart. South takesthat with dummy’s ace, cashes theclub queen, ruffs a club high, leadsthe spade four to dummy’s eight, ruffsthe last club, overtakes his remainingspade with dummy’s ace, drawstrumps and claims.

Dear Doctor K: Can you ex-plain how Botox reduces linesand wrinkles?
Dear Reader: “Botox” isshort for “botulinum toxin.”Botulinum toxin injectionswere first used for cosmeticpurposes in the late 1980s.Since then, this therapy hasgained quite a following. In2012, these injections were theleading nonsurgical cosmeticprocedure in the United Statesamong men and women innearly all age groups.
Why is this treatment forwrinkles and frown lines sopopular? Botulinum toxininjections are quite effectiveat temporarily smoothing awrinkled face, brow or neck.Over time, they slow theformation of deeper, morepermanent facial lines. Theyare relatively affordable; they
have very few risks; and theyrequire no recovery time.
Wrinkles and frown linesare caused, in part, by the tugof muscles beneath the skin.The tug causes smooth skinto form wrinkles and creases.Botox relaxes the muscles thatare tugging on the skin.
Botulinum toxin is aprotein produced by bacteria.If you ingest these bacteria inimproperly preserved foods,or if they infect a wound, theycan cause botulism. Botulismis a rare but potentially deadlydisease.
But when Botox is used fora cosmetic procedure, it is in
small and harmless amounts.Tiny doses of sterile, purifiedbotulinum toxin are injectedinto specific muscle sites.The solution doesn’t enterthe bloodstream, and theprocedure causes no harm.The amount used in a cosmet-ic treatment is far less thanthe amount needed to causeillness.
Botulinum toxin worksby blocking the release ofacetylcholine. This chem-ical messenger helps trig-ger muscle movement. Byblocking acetylcholine in afew strategic areas, the toxininhibits selected muscles fromcontracting. As a result, themuscles controlling facial ex-pressions relax and creases inthe skin smooth out. Becausethe muscle can’t contract, newcreases don’t form. (I’ve put
an illustration showing howbotulinum toxin works on mywebsite, AskDoctorK.com.)
Botulinum toxin injectionstake just minutes and don’tcause much discomfort. Youmay notice mild redness, mi-nor headaches or occasionallyminor bruising. The mus-cle-relaxing, wrinkle-reducingresults usually last for aboutthree or four months.
Many people worry thatbotulinum toxin injectionswill leave them with an unnat-ural expression or with frozenfeatures. But when done well,these injections shouldn’tdrastically change your abili-ty to form facial expressions.In rare cases, injections nearthe upper eyelids or eye-brows may make them drooptemporarily. But side effectsare typically uncommon and
minimal.Following its introduction
for cosmetic purposes, Botoxalso is being used to treat agrowing number of medi-cal conditions. All of theseconditions involve muscletension that can be relievedby Botox. Examples includeoveractive bladder, symptomsof an enlarged prostate, exces-sive sweating, tremors andother uncontrollable musclespasms, and even migraineheadaches.
You’ve heard the phrase,“Too much of a good thing canbe bad”? Well, Botox teachesus that a very small amount ofa bad thing can do good.
