Work is the greatest thing in the world, so weshould always save some of it for tomorrow.
βDon Herold
1. In 2015, pitcher Max Scherzer twice set a Washington Nationals record for most strike-outs in a game (16, then 17). Who had held the mark?
2. What two teams did Reds pitcher Johnny Vander Meer back-to-back no-hit during the 1938 season?
3. In 2015, the Colts' Andrew Luck joined four other quarterbacks who passed for 300-plus yards in three consecutive NFL playoοΏ½ games. Who else
did it?4. Who was the οΏ½ rst
A f r i c a n - A m e r i c a n Division I men's head basketball coach?
5. Detroit's Dylan Larkin set an NHL All-Star Skills record in 2016 for fastest lap around a full rink (13.17 seconds). Who had held the mark?
6. Name the American runner who captured Olympic gold medals in 1948 and 1952 in the 800m track race?
7. Jason Day, at the 2 0 1 5 P G A Championship, became the οΏ½ rst player to οΏ½ nish 20-under par at a major championship. What had been the lowest mark, and who held it?
Answers
1. Stephen Strasburg struck out 14 in a game in 2010.
2. οΏ½ e Boston Braves and the Bro ok lyn Dodgers.
3. Dan Fouts, Jim Kelly, Warren Moon and Drew Brees.
4. Will Robinson was hired as coach of Illinois State in 1970.
5. Toronto's Mike Gartner did a lap in 13.38 seconds in 1996.
x οΏ½ ere are just some teams everybody pulls for, whether or not they are rivals or from diοΏ½ er-ent towns, and at the top of that list lies one team: οΏ½ e Chicago Cubs.
Yankee fans would not have minded one bit if the Red Sox lost forever. οΏ½ ere were maybe some mixed feelings in 1986 when the Mets took on the Sox in the World Series, but nothing really too serious. Yankee fans looked with lust upon the Mets during that season. Just the idea of having a catcher like Gary Carter during the post-Munson, C e r o n e - Wy n e g a r -Skinner era seemed oth-erworldly to fans of the Bombers (not to mention the sanity at the manage-rial spot). And while there was a begrudging tip of the hat over the years to Big Papi and Curt Shilling's sock, whenever guys like Wade Boggs or Johnny Damon joined the team and
chipped in during winning years, most Yankee fans merely thought it was cool that a few Red Sox players helped the Bombers out in between bouts of pining for Don Mattingly.
Maybe in St. Louis there are dug-in pockets of resistance against the Cubs' allure. οΏ½ at's un-derstandable, but they should know that the St. Louis Blues are second on the list of teams many non-locals wouldn't mind seeing win Lord Stanley's Cup someday, if only to keep things interesting. And that's being generous, since Cardinal fans can get kinda smug and ruin those sentiments in the time it takes to put down one toasted ravioli on οΏ½ e Hill.
Still, in order for a team to be a rival, the other team must win o n c e i n a w h i l e . Otherwise, what do you h a v e ? H a r l e m Globetrotters versus Washington Generals or
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 base-ball, no matter what they say about pitching, the manager's spot is the most important. οΏ½ ere are no coincidences that guys like LaRussa, Torre, Herzog, Piniella, Yost, Billy Martin (between bar fights), Showalter and Joe Maddon win ev-er ywhere they 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 οΏ½ nds its level.
οΏ½ ere 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 decep-tively hot-hitting Cubs in their "whatever you think is hot" suits, they're feeling it. So brace your-self, Wrigley Field ... the jinx is up.

During the past 27 years, the Girl Scout golf classic
has raised more than $828,000 to support girl program development, girl οΏ½ nancial assistance and to maintain and improve Girl Scout camps.

With several area veter-ans in attendance, Purple Heart recipients Jim Murphy and Michael Draege cut the purple ribbon for the newly painted and reserved purple parking space at Buchheit in Centralia.
οΏ½ e reserved space for combat wounded was οΏ½ rst i n t r o d u c e d a t t h e Jacksonville Buchheit store, an idea by their assistant manager Robert Ayres, a
retired veteran. According to Centralia Buchheit M a n a g e r J o h n Hendrickson, "All eight Buchheit stores plus our distribution center, main oοΏ½ ce, feed mill and truck-ing division will have des-ignated combat wounded parking spaces. Buchheit feels this is another great way to recognize and honor our veterans who have given so much."

GIRLS SCOUT DAY AT THE CAPITOLBoaters can enjoy a safe
season on the water in Illinois this summer if boat operators are sober and all boaters and boat passen-gers wear life jackets. Illinois Conservation Police oοΏ½ cers, who patrol water-ways throughout the state, are reminding boaters of safety laws and regulations leading up to National Safe Boating Week, May 21-27.
βWe encourage safe boating throughout the year in Illinois, and re-minders about life jackets and sober boating are par-ticularly important heading into the busiest season of the year on the water,β said Illinois Conservation Police Chief Rafael Gutierrez. βLike fastening a seat belt in your car or truck, fasten-ing a life jacket can save your life; and, staying sober while operating a boat is the law in Illinois.β
Statistics compiled by the IDNR Office of Law Enforcement show that there were 74 boating-re-lated accidents on Illinois waters in 2015 resulting in 49 injuries and 14 fatalities. During the last οΏ½ ve years, Illinois had an annual average of 84 boating ac-cidents resulting in 58 in-juries and 18 fatalities. (Annual boating accident
statistics are compiled based on the Federal Fiscal Year of October 1 through September 30).
Illinois Conservation Police oοΏ½ cers (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-relat-ed 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 οΏ½ otation device (PFD).
Illinois law requires that PFDs β life jackets or life vests β be available for each person aboard a boat or other watercraοΏ½ . 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 under-way, 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 oper-ating a personal watercraοΏ½ or Jet Ski.
The IDNR offers free
boating safety courses pro-viding a review of boating laws and regulations and instruction on safe and at-tentive operation of water-craοΏ½ . οΏ½ e IDNR encour-ages boaters of all ages to take a safety course. Anyone born on or aοΏ½ er January 1, 1998 must pass a course and have a valid Boating Safety CertiοΏ½ cate 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.
οΏ½ e free safety courses taught by volunteer in-structors are available throughout Illinois, and schedules are available by checking the IDNR web-siteβs boating information page at http://www.dnr.il-linois.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 na-tional safe boating cam-paign, 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. Mythol-og y recounts the mighty acts of heroes. Modern οΏ½ ction has for-mulated superheroes. But none of these heroes are real. On Me-morial Day we honor true heroes. οΏ½ ey are ordinary men and women who served their countr y in uniform and gave the ultimate sacrifice of their lives in battle.
Scott Sernes recount-ed the story of Medal of Honor recipient Captain Ed Freeman. βYouβre a 19-year-old kid. Youβre critically wounded and dying in the jungles of Vietnam. Your unit is outnum-bered 8 β 1 and the enemy οΏ½ re is so intense that your CO has ordered Med Evac he-l icopters to stop coming in. Youβre lying there, listening to the enemyβs machine guns and you know youβre not getting out.
βAs 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 helicop-ter. You look up and see a Huey coming in. It doesnβt seem real; thereβs no Med Evac ins ignias v is ible . Captain Ed Freeman is coming in for you. He heard the radio call and decided heβs flying down into the battle anyway. They load three of you at a time and οΏ½ y you out through the hail of bullets to safety β to nurses and doctors. He keeps οΏ½ ying in and out β 13 more times β 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 leοΏ½ arm. He took you and 29 of your buddies out that day.β Captain Ed Freeman, USAF, was a goodness to God genuine hero! What is a goodness to
God genuine hero? HE LAYS DOWN
HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS. Jesus deοΏ½ nes it in John 15:3, βGreater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.β Jesus revealed his iden-tity and mission, βI am the good shepherd. οΏ½ e good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.β (John 10:11) What loving friendship Jesus demonstrated on the cross.
HE LAYS DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS ENEMIES. Jesus dem-onstrated the extraor-dinary love of God, βFor scarcely for a righ-teous 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.β (Romans 5:7-8) As Jesus hung on the cross between two thieves, he prayed, βFather, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.β (Luke 23:34) An old gospel song by Dottie Rambo says, βIf that isnβt love, the ocean is dry. οΏ½ ereβs no stars
in the sky. And the sparrow canβt οΏ½ y. If that isnβt love. οΏ½ en heavenβs a myth. Thereβs no feeling like this. If that isnβt love.β
HE STANDS UP FOR THE MARGIN-A L I Z E D A N D BROKEN. A lady, charged with adultery, was brought to Jesus. οΏ½ e law said to stone her. Jesus said, ββHe that is without sin among you, let him cast the οΏ½ rst stone . . . οΏ½ en those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, . . . Jesus said to the woman, βNeither do I condemn you: go and sin no moreβ (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)

Men and women serving in the military make con-siderable sacrifices in defense of the United States and its citizens. Such sac-riοΏ½ ces 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 recog-nize the efforts of both active and veteran service-men and women.
Honoring active military members and veterans does not have to be an elaborate undertaking. Service members and their families oοΏ½ en 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 de-ployed service members are typically leοΏ½ 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. OοΏ½ er 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 de-ployed. 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 tourna-ments or community picnics. More information about working with the Wounded
Warrior Project is avail-able at www.wounded-warriorproject.org.
* Write a letter of appre-ciation. One of the simplest ways to show your support for service members is to write them a letter express-ing that appreciation. If a
friends, relatives or neigh-bors are active service members or veterans, sit down and write a letter telling them how much you appreciate their sacriοΏ½ ce 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 οΏ½ anks (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 sacriοΏ½ ces, 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 granted. 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 Ameri-can has to vote and take an interest in their govern-ment. Speak with active and veteran members of the military about their thoughts on proposed leg-islation and their opinions on how to improve that legislation, taking those opinions into consider-ation before casting your vote.
HOW TO HONOR SERVICEMEN AND WOMEN
Wednesday, May 25, 2016 The Shoppers Weekly Papers Mt. Vernon Area 7
School children across America make the pledge every morning. The pledge is often made at town hall meetings and civic events. Nearly every veteransβ organization begins its meetings by making the pledge.
Iβm 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 Youthβs Companion of Columbus Day, a patriotic book widely distributed throughout schools in the late 1800s.
Attempts To Change The Pledge
Originally written, βI pledge allegiance to my flag,β the First National Flag Conference in 1923
made an important change. βMy flagβ was replaced by βthe flag of the United Statesβ to clarify the pledge for foreign-born school children and those born of foreign parents. The phrase βof Americaβ 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 βunder Godβ fol-lowing the phrase βone nation.β 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, βwith liberty and justice for all.β These
groups have sought to change the line to read, βand in which there will one day be liberty and jus-tice for all.β
Adoption of the U.S. Flag Code on June 22, 1942, prevents the Pledge of Allegiance from being altered, modified or delet-ed without presidential consent.
Stop And ListenSeptember 8,
the official anniver-sary 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 apprecia-tion 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 Pledge of Allegiance, take a few minutes to lis-ten 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 βsayingβ the Pledge of Allegiance, think about the fact that you are βmak-ing a pledgeβ to honor and support our great nation and the flag that repre-sents it. And the sacrifice and love that have made it great.

More than 100 years ago in 1863, America was in the midst of the most painful time in our history β 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. οΏ½ ey carried wildοΏ½ owers to lay on the graves of their Confederate sol-diers who were buried there.
As they moved from one grave to another, they noticed another group of graves oοΏ½ to one side. οΏ½ ey were clearly the graves of Union sol-diers who had died on the same οΏ½ eld of battle. With little discussion, they began to lay their οΏ½ owers on those graves as well.
οΏ½ e healing of a nation began at that point. οΏ½ e
compassion of these Southern ladies for those who died οΏ½ ghting 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 or-ganization, called the Grand Army of the Re-public, decided to desig-nate a special day to honor the fallen from both sides. οΏ½ e following order was issued:
βοΏ½ e 30th day of May, 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with οΏ½ owers 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 hamlet churchyard in the land. οΏ½ eir soldier lives were the reveille of freedom to a race of chains and their deaths a tattoo (drum-beat) of rebel l ious tyranny in arms. We should guard their graves with sacred vigilance.β
New York was the οΏ½ rst state to set aside this day for speciοΏ½ c 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 βMemorial Day.β In 1973, Memorial Day was oοΏ½ cially estab-lished as the last Monday in May.
On Memorial Day, the sky will likely be clear and most of us will have the day oοΏ½ 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 re-membered.
οΏ½ ese 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 leοΏ½ behind, we must pause during our picnics and gather-ings. We must pause, if only for a moment, to remember their sacri-οΏ½ ces. If they could speak they would likely say, βMake the most of your freedom and privileges. We purchased them with our lives.β
I guess we owe them at least that much. I am sure they would ask for no more.

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCESERIOUS COMMITMENT TO AMERICAN IDEALSBY GEORGE R. CRAMER, FORMER NATIONAL COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF, VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS
8 The Shoppers Weekly Papers Mt. Vernon Area Wednesday, May 25, 2016
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 con-finement or two or three to a cell. In 1971 the NVA moved us from these con-ditions of isolation into large rooms with as many as 30 to 40 men to a room. This was, as you can imag-ine, 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 cap-tured 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
to receive packages from home. In some of these packages were handker-chiefs, scarves and other items of clothing. Mike got himself a bamboo needle.
Over a period of a couple of months, he cre-ated 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 impor-tant part of our day now, but I can assure you that in that stark cell, it was indeed the most important
and meaningful event. One day the
Vietnamese searched our cell, as they did peri-odically, 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 excite-ment died down, I looked in the corner of the room,
and sitting there beneath that dim light bulb with a piece of red cloth, another shirt and his bamboo nee-dle, 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 bet-ter. 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 pro-mote 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 lib-erty and justice for all."
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, βlifeβ. 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.

Honoring and RememberingAll Past and Present Veterans.
Though many people are quick to refer to Me-morial Day as the unoοΏ½ -cial beginning of summer, the day is much more than that. Initially known as Decoration Day, Memo-rial Day is a day to remem-b er t hos e mi l i t ar y members who died in service of the country.
οΏ½ e origins of Memo-rial Day remain a topic of debate. In 1966, President Lyndon Johnson declared Waterloo, N.Y. as the of-οΏ½ cial birthplace of Memo-
rial Day. However, the roots of Memorial Day likely run much deeper, as researchers at Duke Uni-versity note that during the Civil War, organized women's groups in the south had begun to deco-rate the graves of fallen soldiers.
Memorial Day as we know it today can likely be traced to Charleston, S.C., where teachers, missionar-ies and some members of the press gathered on May 1, 1865 to honor fallen
soldiers. During the Civil War, captured Union sol-diers 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
integral role in the event at the Charleston Race Course.
While the event in Charleston might have been the οΏ½ rst 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' orga-nization for men who served in the Civil War, General Logan issued a proclamation just οΏ½ ve days aοΏ½ er the Charleston event
that called for Decoration Day to be observed annu-ally across the country. Logan preferred the event not be held on the anni-versary of any particular battle, and thus the day was observed for the οΏ½ rst time on May 30. Celebrat-ing the day in May also was signiοΏ½ cant to event orga-nizers because May is a month when οΏ½ owers are in bloom, making it easier for observers of the holiday to place οΏ½ owers on the graves of fallen soldiers.
In 1868, events were held at more than 180
cemeteries in 27 states, and those f igures nearly doubled in 1869. By 1890, every northern state oοΏ½ -cially recognized Decora-tion 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 οΏ½ rst used in 1882, on the last Monday in May.

A Party Divided
Ouch! Sanders has οΏ½ at out said if he is elected p r e s i d e n t , D e b b i e Wasserman Schultz will not be the chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC).
οΏ½ ere'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.
Hillary 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 he D emo crat ic 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 dele-gate 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 dele-gates 39.
οΏ½ ere are only 712 del-egates remaining so neither will reach the magic number with regular delegates. οΏ½ ese 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 οΏ½ ip. Time will tell.
In the beginning of this election cycle I said this go-round it would be very diοΏ½ erent. 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, espe-cially the young voters where Hillary remains weak.
While Democrats are suοΏ½ ering 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 ham-burger costs $170.00. Women are being asked to not use hair dryers because of lack of power. People are protesting against rationed food.
SOCIALIST UNREST.
What does this have to do with anything? Plenty. Bernie Sanders is a pro-claimed socialist, but in reality, so is Hillary Clinton. She just doesn't claim to be!
In closing, I believe we'll witness the ug l iest Presidential race of all time! Needless to say, the winds could continue to shiοΏ½ , leaving it virtually impossible to predict.
Until next week.

We Salute Our Local Law Enforcement O cersMT. VERNON, ILLINOIS
14 The Shoppers Weekly Papers Mt. Vernon Area Wednesday, May 25, 2016
Traditionally, on Memo-rial Day we honor those who have made the ulti-mate sacrifice for our nation. Social Security re-spects the heroism and courage of our military service members, and we remember those who have given their lives in defense of freedom.
οΏ½ e unexpected loss of a service member is a diοΏ½ -cult experience for the family. Social Security helps by providing beneοΏ½ ts to protect service membersβ dependents. Widows, wid-owers, and their dependent children may be eligible for Social Security survivors benefits. You can learn more about Social Security survivors beneοΏ½ ts at www.socialsecurity.gov/survi-vors.
Itβs 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 beneοΏ½ ts to protect veterans when an injury prevents them from returning to active duty.
Wounded mi l itar y
service members can also receive expedited process-ing of their disability claims. For example, Social Security will provide expe-dited processing of disabil-ity claims οΏ½ led by veterans who have a U.S. Depart-ment of Veterans AοΏ½ airs (VA) Compensation rating of 100 percent Permanent & Total (P&T). Depending on the situation, some family members of military personnel, including de-pendent children and, in some cases, spouses, may be eligible to receive ben-eοΏ½ ts. You can get answers to commonly asked ques-tions and οΏ½ nd useful infor-mation about the applica-tion process at www.socialsecurity.gov/wound-edwarriors.
Service members can also receive Social Security in addition to military re-tirement beneοΏ½ ts. οΏ½ e good news is that your military retirement beneοΏ½ t does not reduce your Social Secu-rity retirement benefit. Learn more about Social Security retirement beneοΏ½ ts at www.socialsecurity.gov/retirement. You may also want to visit the Military
Service page of our Retire-ment 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 beneοΏ½ ts may change, or end, when you become eligible for Medi-care. Learn more about Medicare beneοΏ½ ts at www.socialsecurity.gov/medi-care.
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 beneοΏ½ ts for wounded warriors, and how can I apply?
Answer:οΏ½ rough the Wounded
Warrior program, Social Security expedites process-ing of disability claims of current military service members or veterans dis-abled while on active duty
on or aοΏ½ er October 1, 2001. Also, service members and veterans who have a Veter-ans Administration com-pensation rating of 100% Permanent and Total (P&T) may receive expe-dited processing of applica-tions for Social Security disability beneοΏ½ ts. Keep in mind, this expedited process applies to only the application process. To be eligible for benefits, you must meet Social Securityβs strict deοΏ½ nition of βdisabil-ity,β which means:
β’ You must be unable to do substantial work because o f y o u r m e d i c a l condition(s); and
β’ 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).
Question: What is the benefit
amount a spouse may be entitled to receive?
Answer:
If youβre eligible for both your own retirement beneοΏ½ t and for beneοΏ½ ts as a spouse, we will always pay you beneοΏ½ ts based on your record οΏ½ rst. If your beneοΏ½ t as a spouse is higher than your retirement benefit, you will receive a combina-tion of beneοΏ½ ts equaling the higher spouse's beneοΏ½ ts. A spouse generally receives 50 percent of the retired worker's full beneοΏ½ t, unless the spouse begins collect-ing beneοΏ½ ts before full re-tirement age. If the spouse begins collecting beneοΏ½ ts before full retirement age, the amount of the spouse's beneοΏ½ t is reduced by a per-centage based on the number of months before he or she reaches full retire-ment age. For example, based on a full retirement age of 66, if a spouse begins collecting beneοΏ½ ts:
β’ At age 65, the benefi t amount would be about 46 percent of the retired work-er's full beneοΏ½ t;
β’ At age 64, it would be about 42 percent;
β’ At age 63, 37.5 percent; and
β’ At age 62, 35 percent. However, if a spouse is
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 beneοΏ½ ts, regardless of age. Learn more by reading our Retirement publication at www.so-c 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 beneοΏ½ ts?
Answer:Social Security uses the
formulas below, depending on your age, to determine how much you can earn before we must reduce your beneοΏ½ t:
β’ If you are younger than full retirement age: $1 in beneοΏ½ ts will be deducted for each $2 you earn above the annual limit. For 2016, that limit is $15,720.
β’ In the year you reach your full retirement age: $1 in beneοΏ½ ts 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.
β’ Starting with the month you reach full retire-ment age: you will get your beneοΏ½ ts with no limit on your earnings.
Find out your full retire-ment age at www.socialse-curity.gov/pubs/agein-crease.htm
Question:My brother had an acci-
dent at work last year and is now receiving Social Se-curity disability beneοΏ½ ts. His wife and son also receive beneοΏ½ ts. Before his accident, he helped support another daughter by a woman he never married. Is the second child entitled to beneοΏ½ ts?
Answer:οΏ½ e child may qualify for
Social Security benefits even though your brother wasn't married to the second child's mother. οΏ½ e childβs caretaker should οΏ½ le an application on her behalf. For more informa-tion, read our publication, BeneοΏ½ ts for Children, avail-able at. www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/EN-05-10085.pdf

CookingWith Lizzie
Chicken From Around οΏ½ e World (Part 1)Americans aren't the only people whose favorite meat is chicken. From Japan to Mexico you will
οΏ½ nd an array of delicious and healthy dishes. οΏ½ is week's and next week's columns will focus on some of my tried and true dishes.
Japanese Boiled ChickenSESAME SAUCE:1 cup sesame seeds 1/2 cup heavy cream or sour cream1/2 cup Asian-style sesame oil 3/4 cup lightly seasoned homemade1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce chicken stock, or 6 T. each canned2 T. Japanese rice vinegar or freshly low-sodium broth and water squeezed lemon juice
2 quarts lightly seasoned homemade 1 small Napa or other Asian-type cabbage chicken stock, or 5 cups canned low-sodium (about 1Β½ lbs.), leaves separated broth and 3 cups water 1 bunch spinach (about 1 lb.), trimmed4 boned and skinned chicken breast halves, 1 lb. οΏ½ rm tofu, cut into 1/2" dice (optional) cut into bite-sized pieces 4 to 6 oz. fresh enoki mushrooms (slender2 or 3 medium-sized carrots, sliced Japanese white mushrooms; optional) on the diagonal 2 to 3 cups hot steamed short-grain6 green onions, sliced on the diagonal brown or white rice into 2" pieces
To make sauce, place sesame seeds in heavy pan over medium-high heat and toast, stirring fre-quently, 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 diοΏ½ erent 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. AοΏ½ er eating the chicken and vegetables, ladle some of the hot broth into 6 individual bowls. Add a bit of leοΏ½ over 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. AοΏ½ er eating the chicken and vegetables with chopsticks, add some of the leοΏ½ over sauce to the broth and drink the soup. Serves 6.
Green Curry οΏ½ ai StyleTake a fast trip to οΏ½ ailand

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 οΏ½ sh 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 brieοΏ½ y. Serves 6 to 8 as part of a οΏ½ ai dinner, or 4 as a main course.

LuοΏ½ a Vase
Q: My mother received a brown LuοΏ½ a vase that mea-sures 7 1/4 inches in about 1935 or 1936 for a birthday present. I have been oοΏ½ ered $50 for it by a collector. β Rob, Rio Rancho, New Mexico
A: οΏ½ e LuοΏ½ a pattern was introduced by Roseville Pottery in 1934. It featured small yellow or white οΏ½ owers and large green leaves on a wavy ridged background. Background colors are dom-inant green with brown accents or dominant brown with variegated green accents. According to "Warman's Ros-eville Pottery: IdentiοΏ½ cation 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. οΏ½ e man died during the 1930s. Anything you can tell me about this cabinet would be appreciated. β V.A., Rio Rancho, New Mexico
A: Your question is impos-sible to answer. Who was the chief ? Where was the museum? Is there any docu-mentation? Without these facts, it is simply another piece of old furniture. If you suspect your cabinet is valu-able, hire the services of a good professional appraiser. οΏ½ ere 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 οΏ½ nd 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 οΏ½ nd out if they have much value. β Carl, Hastings, Nebraska
A: οΏ½ e National Insulator Association was founded in 1973 and has members scat-tered throughout the country. οΏ½ is 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 ex-cellent condition, and I assume still works. What is it worth? β Cynthia, Shreve-port, Louisiana
A: Your camera is probably in a black case and was man-ufactured by the Herbert George Company. It would retail in the $50-$75 range.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Home conditions still demand at-tention. 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 cor-ner, travel begins to dominate your sign. Make plans carefully to avoid potential problems in the οΏ½ rst half of June.GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A romantic Libra sets a challenge that your βsensibleβ side might question, but your idealistic self οΏ½ nds the prospect too intriguing to resist. οΏ½ e choice is yours.CANCER (June 21 to July 22) οΏ½ ose tense times in your personal life are just about over. Concen-trate on reaοΏ½ rming relationships. Your love of travel opens a surpris-ing new opportunity. LEO (July 23 to August 22) οΏ½ e 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) βNewβ is your watchword this week. Be open to new ideas, both on the job and in your personal life. A romantic Aries or Sagittar-ian beckons. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Some diοΏ½ cult family decisions have to be faced, but be sure to get more facts before you act. Be
careful not to neglect your health during this trying time. SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem-ber 21) You still need to support a loved one through a diοΏ½ cult time. Meanwhile, things continue to work out to your beneοΏ½ t in the workplace.SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Aspects continue to favor expanding social oppor-tunities. A Gemini reaches out to oοΏ½ er a chance for re-establishing a once-close relationship. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) οΏ½ ereβs 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 Febru-ary 18) You might be feeling rest-less 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 Cupidβs best bet for your romantic prospects.BORN THIS WEEK: You have a giΒ€ for being open-minded about people. οΏ½ is helps you make friends easily. You would do very well in public service.
β’ It was 20th-century television, film and culture critic John Leonard who made the following sage observa-tion: "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 bold-ness is a hand to hold."
β’ You probably won't be surprised to learn that
a group of hedgehogs is known as a prickle.
β’ In almost every state, there is a statute on the books making it illegal to jump oοΏ½ the top of an o f f i c e b u i l d i n g . Unsurprisingly, there's not much call to prose-cute 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
jumping oοΏ½ a building and are tried and con-victed of violating that law, you could be sen-tenced to death.
β’ 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.
β’ Just as humans have distinctive οΏ½ ngerprints, dogs have nose prints β no two are the same.
β’ You doubtless know of Theodore Geisel β better known as Dr. Seuss, the beloved author of such children's classics as "οΏ½ e Cat in the Hat,"
"Horton Hears a Who" and "Green Eggs and Ham," among many others. You might not realize, though, that his οΏ½ rst book, "And to οΏ½ ink οΏ½ at I Saw It on Mulberry Street," was rejected by more than two dozen publishers before it οΏ½ nally made it into print.
β’ Did you know that dogs appear in the Bible? Yep β 41 times. No mention of cats, though.

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 countryβs leading solar scientists and amateur sky-watchers. In the process, they will learn more about how to appreciate and enjoy this rare happening.
οΏ½ e 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 β known by his fans as βMr. Eclipseβ β conducts eclipse timing predic-tions for NASA and runs the site eclipsewise.com, which is
popular among buοΏ½ s, 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.
βIf you're using a map with a geolocation tool to οΏ½ nd amounts of totality for your location, it's probably Xavier's map,β 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 pro-moting simple sun- and moon-related activities for families using common household ma-terials.
Another huge highlight is the much-anticipated announce-ment 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 β a video podcast that focuses on missions, technologies and space-related events involving the space agency β will send representa-tives to the workshop where they will discuss plans for their eclipse 2017 coverage from the SIU campus, Baer said. OοΏ½ cials say
NASA likely will reach a huge global audience with its coverage.
οΏ½ e Adler Planetarium per-sonnel also will be on hand to discuss some of that institutionβs plans for partnering with SIU in eclipse programming and events.
οΏ½ e οΏ½ rst day of the two-day conference generally will include the most public-friendly infor-mation that will be useful but mostly non-technical in nature. οΏ½ e second day is open to the public, as well, though registra-tion is required and the talks will contain more technical informa-tion.
βFor 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 οΏ½ nd out how to do that safely,β Baer said. βWe have laid out the program such that we have some special-ized talks running opposite more generalized workshops and vice versa so people can tailor their day to their own needs.β
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
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 οΏ½ rst total solar eclipse over the mainland United States since 1979. οΏ½ e eclipse viewing path and shadow that day will sweep across the country from north-west to southeast, with its point of greatest duration a few miles south of Carbondale. OοΏ½ cials expect some 30,000 to 50,000 people to descend on the area for the happening. οΏ½ e universityβs planning, led by a campus-community committee, has been underway for more than a year.
Not only that, but a second such event is due on April 8, 2024. οΏ½ e intersection of the two eclipse paths is just south of Carbondale over Cedar Lake. No other place in the world will oοΏ½ er 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 οΏ½ rst eclipse draws nearer, her oοΏ½ ce is οΏ½ elding increasing numbers of calls from people seeking infor-mation about the event.
βThe eclipse will affect 15 Illinois counties as it passes
through, so we are all going to feel it,β she said.
Following the AAS confer-ence 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 busi-nesses can prepare for the events. Southern Illinois Economic Development is also planning such a meeting looking at how the area can leverage the event. οΏ½ at meeting is set for June 14 at John A. Logan College.
οΏ½ e 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 organi-zation and the university are hoping it will raise awareness in a broad segment of the local population.
βBecause 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 diοΏ½ erent groups such as teachers, communities, the tourism indus-try, and regional planners,β Baer said. βHowever, we will have a lot of basic information on how people can just enjoy watching the eclipse.β
οΏ½ e second day of the confer-ence will include scientiοΏ½ c talks and discussions on the Citizen CATE Experiment (Continental America Telescopic Eclipse). οΏ½ e
eοΏ½ ort will see SIU cooperate with about 60 other teams recording the eclipse as it traverses the United States. οΏ½ e 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 sunβs corona, which is usually ob-scured by the sunβs brightness.
Matt Penn, associate astrono-mer 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 work-shop.
βοΏ½ e workshop is intended for current or potential volunteer observers for the Citizen CATE Experiment,β Baer said. βThe hands-on portion of the work-shop will be a group solar obser-vation using the CATE prototype telescope that will be used to observe the 2017 eclipse. In ad-dition to the public portions, there will be closed discussion sessions for conference partici-pants only.β
Cost to attend the full confer-ence, including all closed ses-sions 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.
