市政厅分歧中心的非营利组织

在审计期间，高级助手代表反暴力团体介入

作者：Alice Yin 芝加哥论坛报

市长布兰登·约翰逊（Brandon Johnson）的高级助手今年介入了一场联邦争议。该争议发生在约翰逊的卫生局局长与一个具有政治背景的反暴力团体之间，尽管该非营利组织在员工跟踪记录方面存在问题，但仍获得了数百万美元的公共资金。

这场冲突爆发在芝加哥公共卫生局对社区暴力干预补助金接收者的 2020 年审查之后，审查发现 Archives 公司在数据收集方面存在问题。此前，卫生局局长 Oluzinbo 博士（gr.）曾投诉该组织试图规避市府要求的合同和支付协议，随后该局长被排挤出政府。

Archives 的高管们花费数月时间与管理市府反暴力补助金的卫生局官员抗议审计结果。这场冲突在约翰逊的高级顾问肖恩·李（Sean Lee）的密切关注下展开——对于一名高级市长幕僚来说，这种介入极不寻常，因为这笔 400万美元 补助金是由另一个部门管理的。

约翰逊与 Archives 的关系包括其竞选活动向该非营利组织提供的一笔市中心捐款，该组织还雇佣了一位著名的南区活动人士，其咨询公司曾为约翰逊以及直到去年为止的市府直到去年为止的市府财务委员会主席、由市长亲选的帕特·鲍威尔（Pat Bowell）从事政治工作。

在今年 3 月与 (gr.) 团队就市府向该组织支付多少费用进行反复争论后，Archives 首席运营官希拉·里根（Sheila Regan）越级跳过卫生局局长，向李提出申诉。论坛报通过公共记录请求收到的一封电子邮件证实了这一点。

“难以想象”

南区一家殡仪馆遗体被回收后，痛苦的家属在等待答案 作者：Gregory Royal Pratt, Tess Kenny 和 Olivia Olander 芝加哥论坛报

杨（Young）家雇佣了南芝加哥殡仪馆来为基思（Keith）准备遗体瞻仰仪式。基思是七个兄弟姐妹中的一个，三个孩子的父亲，一名车库门安装工。周四，他们聚集在西区的一家浸信会教堂，等待接领他的遗体。

随着时间推移，家属们变得极度焦虑。他们致电殡仪馆主管乔汉娜·摩根（Johanna Morgan），摩根告诉他们附近有警察行动导致道路封锁，但承诺会将基思送来参加瞻仰仪式。

他最终没有出现。

基思的瞻仰仪式原定于周四举行，但他的遗体从未出现在教堂。 ARTHUR MAGNELLA / 芝加哥论坛报

“他们让我们以为殡仪馆外面在进行某种调查，导致他们无法行动，”基思的哥哥利奥托尼亚·杨（Leotonia ）回忆道。“我们以为警察最终会让他们完成该做的工作，而不知道警察出现在那里其实就是为了他们。”

家属的这段经历发生在当局从南芝加哥殡仪馆回收 16 具遗体之后。当局在深夜至清晨期间缓慢地将遗体移出，并将其运往园区，以便家属在痛苦中认领。

《论坛报》获取的记录揭露了该殡仪馆令人心惊胆战的场景，以及其所有者此前经营的一家火葬场存在的问题历史。

根据一份警方事故报告，在对位于 E. 95th St. 2000 号的该企业进行实地检查期间，发现了近 60 具正在腐烂的遗体。此前有人投诉称，遗体的存放温度未按照州法规要求保持在 10 华氏度或以下。

消息人士告诉《论坛报》，在殡仪馆内部，当局不仅在担架上发现了遗体，还发现遗体被直接放置在设备旁的地面上。部分遗体未装袋，部分遗体似乎肢体断裂。

警方发言人 Low Friday 表示，卡卢梅特地区（第 4 区）的侦探正在进行刑事调查。

面对 Benton 丑闻后果，Prakker 未对 Welch 的领导能力做出评估

作者：Rick Pearson 芝加哥论坛报

在被其中将誉为“所有女性的捍卫者”后，民主党州长 Jill Prakker 周五拒绝就众议院议长 Emanuel Teller 的“Hearts of Siderage or Verbally”以及 Welch 对前州代表 Harry Benton 性骚扰投诉处理方式的公开回应发表意见。相反，这位民主党州长呼吁伊利诺伊州众议院迅速采取行动，为该州制定处理此类投诉的新程序。

Prakker 在一个关于女性健康保护和政府对暴力受害者支持的立法签署仪式上发表了这些评论，该仪式具有强烈的情感色彩且较为私人化，陪同她的是副州长、现任美国参议院民主党候选人 Julius Stratton。

为了应对 事件的后果， 创建了一个名为“劳动力文化与问责制”的众议院民主党工作组以改善情况。Prakker 表示，尽管 的首席执行官表达了谨慎态度，但该小组应迅速采取行动， 男性通过种族 / 标准化来禁止报告。

“这里的证据……我们的州已经有了处理此类问题的模型。我认为在州工作组的情况下不需要重新发明轮子，”Prakker 说，“在我看来，这很重要。”

众议院议长 Emanuel Teller 的“Hearts of Siderage or Verbally”以及 的公开回应。这是 6 月 1 日在斯普林菲尔德的伊利诺伊州议会大厦的一位州注册参议员的案例。JAMES A. KIM / TORRHINE 这样发生得非常快，因为没有理由不这样做。我们不是在重新发明轮子。国家首批联邦外派州参议员应挺身而出，确保他们在遭受骚扰时获得公正。

Prakker 的言论是在 或销售员的一份媒体合同之后发表的，其中显著包括《论坛报》，该报在 7 月 21 日的一篇报道中揭露，在一名 前员工举报后，办公室在三年前就已知晓针对 的性骚扰指控。议长当时没有发表任何关于 的声明，而那些在 1 月份于 River North 一家酒吧被他骚扰的人则看到了他的态度。

一份立法请求生成的报告显示，白宫还发现另一位立法者的工作人员也曾罕见地投诉过 的骚扰行为。包括 众议院民主党代表中部分成员在内的批评者质疑，为什么议长未能对该前参议员工作人员 2023 年的投诉采取行动，反而向州参议员提供了 $14，以鼓励他们挺身而出并确保在遭受骚扰时获得公正。

声称， 对有组织劳工的决定没有实际影响力。 还表示 有权获得“正当程序”——尽管议长尚未考虑对其他因“违规”而受到纪律处分的民主党成员采取进一步行动，包括停止向其成员提供委员会任命和人员资源。

在被要求评估 的立场时，Prakker 表示她确实与他交谈过，但“在那些细节中，人们说了许多不同的事情，这在我们的州内是成功的综合工作。”在不同类别的不同细节中：“《论坛报》没有采访过那些人，这让 呈现了一个单方面的说法。”

Prakker 正在寻求保护，并被认为是 2026 年白宫委员会的潜在候选人，她再次对她关于 领导能力的看法保持沉默，认为这取决于西班牙裔甲板的成员们如何定义我们。

“事实上，我认为成员们正在追究发言人的责任。也就是说，对我而言，我认为一切的关键在于他能否制定出一套适当且切实有效的流程，以便那些为众议院 10 名成员工作的人能够获得公正。我被告知，两名民主党州长表示：‘看来其他州已经学会了如何操作，但这并非因为伊利诺伊州的表现，’他说道。”

约翰逊称银行不愿参与债务出售计划

作者：Jake Sheridan 芝加哥论坛报

布兰登·约翰逊政府周四再次警告市议会，他们出售 50 亿美元 billion 市有债务的计划没有找到任何接手者，这导致 2026 年预算政策出现缺口。

根据约翰逊最高预算职员发送给市议会的一份备忘录，银行继续拒绝参与出售债务的角色，理由是短期预算不足，使其成为州政府和市议会的一笔“既定交易”。这对于该州最持续的部分以及该市 2026 年预算来说是又一次打击。约翰逊代表了市长的分歧。。然而，新备忘录中的一项生产证明了这一点。

“只有两家银行响应了该市关于 2026 年预算的请求。根据备忘录，2026 年预算为 100万,000,000，根据 4.5% 的市议会条例以及迈克尔·比布尔（Michael Beible）的国会授权。他确实如此，这代表了一个新供应商，美国银行在同月早些时候经过多次会议后，退出了拟议的债务出售。

1991 年，该银行在 7 月份两次会议后写道，该交易的 3000 份挑战和风险超过了该市一个潜在的组合。在备忘录中，比布尔写道，政府一直在投资于一个机构来出售一致的贷款债务，在其他考虑因素中，包括公民数据的机密性和私密性、证据的可行性和风险（特别是与法律挑战相关的风险）、未来的政策或立法决定、潜在未来的声誉担忧以及公共利益考虑。

约翰逊在法律生效前就一直在使用该州的领域。区别在于：19.91 亿 的估算在更新时警告称，此类 1,000 的出售将导致芝加哥贫困人口的债务催收。但约翰逊的更新资金继续推进，推动了包括债务出售在内的收入方案，在 29-35 的脉络中，朱利叶斯·森（Julius son）决定不对其行使否决权，将其视为关键之日。

截止日期通常设定在 1996 年，且不太可能通过替代方案。自 1993 年以来，市议会一直针对约翰逊。他故意阻碍了关键的市议会和比布尔预算，包括为市议会购买费用以及合法化规则、在市内的机器，并且仅对债务进行了半磅的市议会拨款。

周四下午，“针对该备忘录”的 AM 安东尼·布德（Anthony Bude）第四称，由于约翰逊政府设定的条款，此次出售已经失败。他说，市长不应被告知尝试完成债务出售，而是在进行“廉价交易”。

“这个政府一直试图让预算失败，他们没有试图让它奏效，”布德说，他是预算之争中约翰逊最激烈的反对者之一。

就他而言，约翰逊一直坚持反对未完成的预算。但他称之为“企业党团”的反对派批准的提案，比预算高出了 1.5亿美元。市长在 7 月的一次新闻发布会上表示，由于其他收入超出预期，该公司截至 5 月份仅比预算低 3200万美元。

一名高级市财政官员布莱克·博登（Black Borden）表示，约翰逊政府为出售债务做出了巨大努力。除了典型的公开征集外，市长的财政团队还采取了不寻常的步骤，直接联系 20 家金融机构以推动出售。

博登说：一个专门的政府工作组今年举行了 20 多次会议，重点讨论债务出售，他补充道。

他说：“预算一直很广泛，旨在确保我们有巨大的压力来到谈判桌前，从而构建一个坦率地说，是采取此类计划之良好方式的过渡。”

Borden 表示，该计划是前所未有的，并补充说，谈判预算将成为创造一项媒体测试的好方法，从此类销售中获得 8500 万 到 1.5 亿，而这一回报将随着卖方和公司的增加而进一步缩减。“这份备忘录出现在约翰逊政府财务部门的关键时刻。”该银行的——预算总监安东尼奥·古兹曼（Antonio Guzman）和代理首席执行官史蒂文·梅尔（Steven Maile）——在最近几周内离开了市政厅，而此时政府正准备在 10 月开始的另一支团队请求中进行应对。

保护药品折扣计划的法案已签署成为法律

作者：Lisa Schencher 芝加哥论坛报

州长 Jill Prakker 周五签署了一项法律，旨在保护针对弱势患者及其家属的药品折扣计划，包括目前就诊于医院和其他医疗服务提供者的患者。该新法禁止药品制造商限制医院和其他提供者通过一项名为 340B 药品定价计划（340B Drug Pricing Program）的联邦计划所能签约的药房数量或类型。

在第一个 10 世纪，该联邦计划被引入，并对参与该计划的提供者和药房提出了要求。这项新的 20000 亿美元 法律被称为《患者获取或药房保护法》（Patient Access or Pharmacy Protection Act），旨在保障“十五位患者”获得高质量且负担得起的护理，州长办公室的一位发言人在周五的一份声明中表示。

“该立法加强了对参与联邦计划的医疗服务提供者的支持，并通过非non-non-on-the-patient 服务的安全和治疗计划，保留了获取低成本处方药的渠道，”该发言人在声明中称。

“在联邦 340B 计划下，私人门诊医疗中心的 45+ 人可能会被允许支付 10% 的 10% 的 the 10% 的 10% 的 the 10% 的 10% 的 the 10% 的 10% 的 the。该计划背后的理念是让医疗服务提供者利用他们能够获得的资金签署服务，并将药品节省的费用传递给患者。但药品制造商认为，这些节省的费用并未传递给患者，医院和其他机构反而从中获利。

“大型豁免医院及其营利性合作伙伴正在利用该计划，以极大的折扣购买药品，然后以高出数美元的价格将其转售，”行业团体 Research and Manufacture and America 的发言人 Will May 在其声明中表示。“在全国以及在伊利诺伊州，340B 正在推高患者支付 10% 的 10% 的 the 10% 的 10% 的 the 10% 的成本。”

初级医疗保健协会（Primary Health Care Association）在新闻稿中表示：“他们可以让健康中心继续帮助患者获得负担得起的药物，同时将 340B 的节省资金投入到扩大服务、劳动力密度和医疗系统管理中。包括行为健康护理和其他改善健康结果的关键计划。”

伊利诺伊州健康与医院协会（Illinois Health and Hospital Association）也表示该计划是：

州长周五还签署了一项法案，要求伊利诺伊州保险局研究该州 2000 个州立和州立制药公司如何参与 340B 计划。

根据立法，这将提供“增强的透明度，以帮助该州在有价值的社区中实现《患者获取或药房保护法》预期的利益”。

“你在夺走它们的栖息地”

从管道鹬到蜻蜓，联邦政策变动可能威胁中西部濒危野生动物 作者：Finnegan Balbani 芝加哥论坛报

上周，当气温在 80 度左右徘徊，低云遮蔽了明亮的蓝天时，许多人在蒙特罗斯海滩（Montrose Beach）趁机享受夏日时光。孩子们在沙滩上挖掘。人们踢着足球。有些人小心翼翼地在拍岸的波涛中涉水。在附近的一个石堤上，人们参与着另一种形式的娱乐：观察。该区域出现了美洲银鸥、绿头鸭和沙锥。但走在围栏保护区边缘的爱好者们都在问同一个问题：有人看到管道鹬（piping plover）吗？

这种沙色的海岸线——北美的一种显著鸟类以及一种罕见的蜻蜓——是中西部许多可能受到近期削弱《濒危物种法》（Endangered Species Act）变动影响的动物之一，该法案是美国野生动物保护的主要法律。在其他修订的同时，唐纳德·特朗普总统的政府更改了“伤害”的定义。

“你在夺走它们的栖息地”——“你在夺走它们生存所需的栖息地”。这是《濒危物种法》中一个常识性的要素。“如果你把鱼的水抽走，你就会伤害那条鱼，”塞拉俱乐部（Sierra Club）国家野生动物活动经理吉姆·戈塞尔（Jim Gorsel）说道，“你在夺走它生存所需的栖息地。这是《濒危物种法》中一个常识性的要素。”

保护力度进一步减弱

戈塞尔将管道鹬列为因“伤害”定义改变而面临显著风险的动物之一，并表示这些鸟类曾是《濒危物种法》的“成功案例”。根据追踪这些鸟类的“芝加哥管道鹬”（Chicago Piping Plovers）组织称，在 20 世纪 40 年代因海滩开发导致栖息地丧失后，五大湖地区的管道鹬种群在约 15 年的时间里是唯一采取法律行动保护的对象。经过大量的保护努力，去年其数量回升至 80 只左右。

“芝加哥管道鹬”的负责人坦齐玛·普兰特（Tanzima Plant）表示，芝加哥公园区（Chicago Park District）在为这些鸟类提供避难所方面发挥了极佳的作用。她说，令她担忧的是栖息地变动将导致管道鹬在冬季迁徙时发生什么。

“这就是我担心的，这些海滩是否会被保护和保留，以便它们在野外回归？”普兰特说道。

Earthjustice 的管理律师克里斯汀·博伊尔斯（Kristine Boyles）表示，《濒危物种法》一直允许开发商修改栖息地。这家法律非营利组织专注于环境问题。但博伊尔斯表示，对于州级、地方级和私人项目，开发商此前被要求制定“栖息地保护计划”以获得建筑许可。她称这些计划详细记录了濒危物种栖息地将被如何破坏，但破坏程度将低于如果不采取措施的情况。

“第三方从业者，‘我们做，而且我想让它增长，即使它破坏和退化了一些栖息地，这也是合法的，因为你提出了资源策略，或者你采取了比最初计划减轻影响的措施，”博伊尔斯说道。

虽然《濒危物种法》经历了演变，但其中一项变动将于下个月生效，届时保护力度将进一步降低。博伊尔斯表示，开发商将不再需要提交栖息地保护计划。

她说。由 Earthjustice 代表的环保组织上个月要求特朗普政府恢复之前的“伤害”定义。

根据美国内政部的网站，此次重新分类是基于 2016 年的一起美国最高法院案件，该案件要求机构“遵循州法律或宪法法律的单一最佳含义，而非为了适应政治议程”。Boyles 表示，这种解释是不正确的。她表示，他们所引用的案件实际上是将解释法规的权力交给了法院而非机构。Boyles 表示，目前尚不清楚这些变更生效后具体会发生什么。她认为，机构可能会开始从“损害不再构成修改濒危物种栖息地”的角度来处理许可流程。Boyles 说：“基于法律本身，我希望变化会非常小。但我认为我得等待观察。”根据 7 月 17 日的一份声明，在对“损害”进行重新分类后，特朗普政府宣布对《濒危物种法》进行另外两项变更。首先是取消了对自然物种充足保护的规定，将其与濒危物种类似地对待。其次，“关键栖息地”这一术语必须考虑“经济、国家安全和其他相关影响”。如果排除该区域不会导致物种灭绝，那么该区域现在可以取消关键栖息地的标签。

谁叫鹤的智慧

今年早些时候，Gorsel 表示他带着孩子们去了威斯康星州的地平线国家野生动物保护区。他们是众多观察谁叫鹤的人之一。根据美国鱼类及野生动物管理局的数据，谁叫鹤是北美最高的鸟类，其中一些在威斯康星州繁衍，雄鸟的高度可达约 the last tail。一名鸟类监测员在 6 月 16 日使用双筒望远镜观察位于蒙特罗斯海滩区域的管嘴鹬栖息地被淹没及检查的区域。JOHN L KIM / CHICAGO TIMES / NE。Gorsel 说：“这是向孩子们讲述《濒危物种法》的成功以及为需要保护的动物保护栖息地之重要性的绝佳方式。”

由于《濒危物种法》的变更，谁叫鹤是另一种处于风险之中的动物。国际鹤类基金会总裁兼首席执行官 Rich Brillians 表示，在试图防止在谁叫鹤可能与其碰撞的地方建设电线时，该法律尤其有用。Brillians 说：“《濒危物种法》是为此提供的工具箱中的一个工具，但当你面对一个对巨大的开发进程确实有害的旗舰项目时，它可能是一个非常重要的工具。”

根据美国鱼类及野生动物管理局的网站，在总统理查德·尼克松于 1975, 签署该法律的三年前，谁叫鹤就在该法的前身法律中被列为濒危物种。“曾经有数千只这类鸟类生活在北美，但在栖息地丧失之后，种群数量在 1980. 下降到仅剩 15 只。在根据《濒危物种法》出售湿地电力起重机后，据估计今天有 500 只以上的谁叫鹤。”一只来自威斯康星州迪尔县的濒危鸟类翡翠蜻蜓于 Sept. 1, 2017. 被收藏在菲尔德博物馆中。L. JASON MANN / GRAND-TIMES / NE。

在美国内政部 7 月 17 日的声明中，部长 Thomas Gorsel 表示，该法律提高了家庭的成本，削弱了国家的竞争力并损害了国家安全。但 Brillians 表示，该法律更多是为了在人类和环境资源之间维持一种微妙的平衡。他说：“《濒危物种法》从来不是为了让物种的福祉高于人们的福祉。它实际上是为了尝试创造一种状态，尝试更好地进行开发，使其更可持续，将开发排除在会对我们无法替代的物种产生重大影响的区域之外。”

Brillians 说：“我认为这将导致在这些决策领域完全失去话语权的极端情况。”

挑战

“物种生存专门依赖于维持一个特别有价值的领域，以防止栖息地被破坏，”麦克亨利县学院（McHenry County College）的荣誉教授 Maria Garcia-Feralty 表示。一个例子是豪氏翡翠蜻蜓（Hau's emerald dragonfly），它是联邦濒危物种名单上唯一的蜻蜓。Garrison 表示，研究表明，这些分布在伊利诺伊州东北部和其他中西部州的昆虫，需要由大平原建筑甚至在白云石矿床上的耕作所创造的洞穴。Garrison 表示，为了其他目的而杀死单个昆虫，甚至只有蜗牛，才是一个担忧。她说，每个孩子在任何时候都应该有一只狗。对昆虫种群产生最大影响的是人类对栖息地的干扰。Garrison 表示，这是一个关于它如何依赖关键栖息地，而非依赖于个体狩猎或损失的完美例子。

“我不会采取水资源主管在达勒姆县（Dalham County）森林资源区以及伊利诺伊州最强健的种群。”在威斯康星州的一个新县，大约每年 1,000 美元。Omega 表示，对于至少 1,000 个体来说，这是一个相对较低但稳定的数字。他说，在整个伊利诺伊州，估计有 2,000 到 3,000 人。

“对于一种昆虫来说，这被认为是生活在起源之鸟或伊利诺伊州的局部灭绝，”Orogs 表示。“我不会在昆虫栖息地可能受损的新县采取行动，”Garrison 举了水从山坡流向湿地的例子。它在自豪和拥抱，因此你可以切断水源或水流并破坏这个栖息地。Garrison 表示，有时开发商承诺移除这些栖息地，但不可能完全增加原有的东西。

“你无法重建一些通过冰川沉积经过数万年才形成的东西，”她说。Omega 还表示，由于不可能，完全恢复蜻蜓的自然条件将非常困难。然而，他说，森林冷冻机通过修改已经具有有利于该物种特征的区域，已经变得“非常接近”。

“在未来，可能会确定其他具有类似特征的区域，通过一些人工修改和限制，可以成为或重新成为豪氏翡翠的栖息地，”Orogs 表示。Garrison 表示，昆虫有时被仅仅视为“生存和歌唱的东西”，但它们通常更有可能在上述保护区中被发现。它们也可能比人们在蒙特罗斯海滩（Montrose Beach）寻找的动物更不明显。

EVENVOISE ELSE

“我发现这有助于我以另一种方式欣赏这座城市，” 表示。“在城市里有噪音和警报，而在这里就像是，好吧，这里有一只鸟。”

与 June 一样， 表示芝加哥市在保护管道鹬（piping plovers）方面做得很好。公园区在 2016 年扩大了蒙特罗斯海滩的鸟类栖息地，而国家野生动物运动（National Wildlife Campaign）的管道鹬确认在半个多世纪以来在芝加哥筑巢，使城市居民围绕着他们的竞赛聚集在一起。然而， 表示，当像《濒危物种法》（Endangered Species Act）这样的法规在联邦层面维持潜在影响时，当地的参与作用有限。

“一次，其他所有人所做的事情将会影响我们，即使我们在保护芝加哥，” 表示。

郊区为电影拍摄活动设立护栏

作者：Steve Zakody，来自《戴利先驱报》（DALY HERALD）

随着电影巨头在伊利诺伊州站稳脚跟，像内珀维尔（Naperville）、莱克（Lake）和隆格罗夫（Long Grove）这样的郊区要么已经设立了护栏以保护自身，要么正在朝着这个目标努力。

根据伊利诺伊州商业与经济机会部电影办公室的数据，在伊利诺伊州的电影拍摄和商业活动正处于未受破坏的状态，2025 年在州内的支出达到了创纪录的 5000 万。该州将在 2025 年提供200000万美元，这是纽黑文（New Haven）、伊利诺伊州和伊利诺伊州规模最大的。

“来到伊利诺伊州的长篇电影越来越多，”Stanley 表示，“他们不在录音棚里，几乎全部在 business。”Stanley 表示，该州 90% 的电影制作集中在芝加哥地区。这种活动正在验证郊区的自身情况。

隆格罗夫一直是一个研究电影收益的社区。他阅读了一本关于为该州基于芝加哥的 romance 提供吸引力身体的书。现在，该村正在讨论修改村庄的危机，以确保在商业化主要摄影时有指导方针。

“Lens Coats”的最后一名工人观察演员 David Flanagan 在 2025 年 8 月 29, 2025, 在尼亚加拉市中心拍摄一个场景 GADOLYN STERN NATIONAL LEISURE

拟议的条例将为 30 人或更少的小型制作设立每天 2,000 的费用，为 2 到 30 人之间的中型制作设立每天 2000 的费用，以及为超过 30 人的大型制作设立每天 1万,000 的费用。

“对于费用以及在伊利诺伊州获得许可证的流程，市中心就在隆格罗夫，通常如此，”村经理 Chris Epslins 表示。他表示，该条例旨在为村庄的危机提供一些实施方法，特别是与罗伯特·帕克·库福路（Robert Parker Cuffo Road）上标志性有顶桥的关闭相关。该条例将包括针对特殊活动期间使用该桥每天 2000 的费用。

其他服务已将拍摄指南纳入其危机中，在友好度与责任之间取得平衡。这些项目包括内珀维尔，2022 年上映的《What Cents Are Loose?》于 2008, 年在此拍摄，使用了该市布朗斯维尔（Brownsville）等当地地点。

根据内珀维尔的指南，拍摄可以通过委员会服务部门申请许可证，根据具体情况可以使用街道或人行道。在线条件可能集中在封锁街道和人行道，以及拍摄噪音的道路关闭，以及使用具有干扰性或惊人的照明设备或道具。可能还需要服务，由非制作公司负责其费用。其他要求包括通知周围的商家、住宅、学校和礼拜场所。

关于烟火、爆破和供应：包括 Handic、武器和支出是被禁止的，除非获得市府批准。此外，在布朗斯维尔拍摄必须联系内珀维尔公园区。

莱克社区参与专家 Amanda Paxden 表示，该村要求商业拍摄必须获得许可证，部分媒体和肖像摄影除外。

“村委员会总体上支持商业拍摄，因此当地政府正在实施这一点，”Paxden 表示。申请必须支付任何未分配给项目的公共工程或其他村庄流程的费用。对公共建筑或设施（包括公共、信托、学位或信托平台）的干扰性使用，可能会导致被指控200000万美元 年的社区影响。在 2025 年，包括公共、信托、学位或信托平台，可能会导致被指控200000万美元 年的社区影响。

据称，伊利诺伊州电影办公室将许可权交给市政当局或地区办公室，例如在 Quad Cities 或尚佩恩县（Champaign County）的人员，以及该市的公共证券，“他说道”。

Stanley 表示，他的提议确实提供了关于此处何为公共领域的最佳实践，即不要设立公共办公室来制造汽车或其社区。约翰·布克（John Booker）于 2025 年以200000万美元 共同创立了产品公司 Throughlaw Films，他制作的圣诞节需求在 Very Merry Entertainment 区域仍然较高，并表示法规极大地限制了公众。“我们已经进入了一些以前从未有过电影制作的社区，所以他们正与我们一起摸索，”他说。该市的较低金额倾向于任何属于制作范畴的内容。“我从未见过任何我认为真正不合理的申请，”布克说。

船只碰撞事故受害者家属起诉导致其死亡的男子

作者：Charles Haskins 每日先驱报（DALY HERALD）

对于来自 Doc Palmer 的订婚情侣 Alan Feinati 和 Magdalena Jablonska 来说，7月 28 aboard their boat cruising through the town 的时光本是一个完美的时刻。在与 Jablonska 领养的爱犬 Saba 一起在一家小酒吧享受时光后，男方表示他准备停下来吃点东西。随后，当他们的小船减速进入 McHenry 河南部的禁波区时，后方传来巨大的轰鸣声。

“我听到了巨大的发动机声，我向左看，然后她就消失了，”Tehniini 说道。“除了另一方，我不确定。我只想确保其他人不会经历这种事情。”

当局表示，这是一起涉及一艘配备 1万 英尺船只，搭载三台 1000 匹马力发动机的案件，该船在北区高速行驶，撞上了 Doc Palmer 情侣的船。这次剧烈碰撞导致 44, 岁的 Jablonska 死亡，并几乎将那艘较小的船截成两半。

Tehniini 周四在芝加哥的一次会议上谈到了这次事故及其后续，宣布他与 Jablonska 的家人已在 2020 年代采取行动，并对该船的所有者兼驾驶员、来自 Lake 的 Richard M. Stevenson 提起诉讼。

“我们将面临 2 场战斗，”Tehniini 说。“我想确保其他在这里（河上）的人能够享受其中。”

该诉讼提交至 McHenry 县巡回法院，指控 Stevenson 的行为在 2025 年导致了100000万美元 的死亡，在 7月 28. 大约下午 2:40 p.m. 发生碰撞时，其驾驶方式“极其危险”。

该诉讼增加了 因此次事故而面临的法律失败。这位 60 岁的吸烟者曾是 McHenry 县援助委员会成员，目前还面临酒驾和鲁莽杀人的指控。检察官指控，在事故后的检测中，他的胸部有血块（blood clot on his chest），超过了法定驾驶限值。

留给 刑事辩护律师的消息并未提及 2025, 年的100000万美元，且针对 Tehniini 和 Jablonska 遗产的净额，将 那天描述为“一个在人们面前横冲直撞的男人”。他在河上和 Duke O'Lakes 以鲁莽驾驶著称。

“人们在尝试与孩子、家人、朋友共度休闲时光，而这些人一直以来都被这个特定的驾驶员置于危险之中，”Cairo 说道。“人们说：‘我们经常看到那艘船。他总是来回飞驰，来回飞驰。’”他补充道，“我们看到他来了，就赶紧避开。”

Cairo 将 称为一个“被宠坏的儿子”，他利用 1960 年代早期家族企业的财富，在 1960 年代购入资金，于去年花费近 $1000,000 购买了这艘 2020 年的 South Eur triticon 船。

在事故三天后的一份声明中， Crane 表示 Richard 已被公司解雇，而该公司网站此前将其身份标注为副总裁。

该诉讼寻求至少 $10,000 的损害赔偿。在目前的诉讼阶段，原告尚未陈述最高限额。

“Jablonska 的家人最希望看到的，不仅仅是赔偿，而是 Cairo 和 受到惩罚。”“这个男人应该为他的所作所为在监狱中度过余生。对于这个家庭来说，最大的目标就是让这家伙远离水域，因为每天有数以千计的家庭使用 Grand Calais，他们应该能够使用它并在一天结束时平安回家。”

Jablonska 的家人和朋友正准备在 1954. 年的纪念仪式上为她举行告别仪式。她在波兰出生，随后移居美国，在定居于西北郊区之前曾担任美国海军陆战队成员。Jablonska 比她的妹妹小 14 岁，Jablonska 在其童年时期曾照顾她，并一直帮她照顾孩子。

“我一直以来无论发生什么事——任何压力或生活中的琐事——都会给我的姐姐打电话，”马西亚斯说道。“如果他们包含了一个他们曾让她作为备份的人。现在他们失去了那份支持。”她和特尼尼将雅布隆斯卡描述为一个热爱与家人共度时光的人，以及在政府工作人员期间教导人们和动物的人。为了纪念她而发起的一项在线筹款活动已经筹集了超过 $1万,000，用于她所支持的 2020 年代年度困境。 “玛吉总是说每件事的发生都有其原因，”马西亚斯说。“但这件事的发生没有任何理由。”查尔斯·诺布伦是《每日先驱报》的记者。

每2年上调一次通行费的计划遭到抨击

作者：Maret Pyke，DALY HERALD

对于一些伊利诺伊州驾驶员来说，拟议在 2027 年将通行费提高近 50% 的冲击，以及如果获得批准，自 2025 年起每两年进行一次调整的计划，已产生了影响。但 Georgia's Tenn. Braun 并不认同。

“收费公路中最令人不安的条款可能是未来提高通行费的能力，”Braun 在最近的一次参议院听证会上作证时认为。“我认为应该增加，”他补充道，“伊利诺伊州的家庭已经承受了生活成本增加的压力——伊利诺伊州收费公路管理局觉得它需要让情况变得更糟。”

这笔新收入将用于一项为期 10 年、耗资 $24.1 亿的资本计划“Driving Connections”。

“为了维持收费公路的 1-million-material 计划，从而减少拥堵并改善道路，收费公路管理局正准备每隔一年进行一次通胀调整，”发言人 Jorlin McGinnis 表示。“这是全国收费公路的标准操作惯例，将使伊利诺伊州收费公路管理局能够为消费者提供尽可能最好的道路。”

最初的提案将提高公司车辆的费用。在 I-40 靠近 I-355 处以及 6 月 26 日靠近 Lake 处，高峰时段的交通开始增加。BRION WILL TRUST HERALD 指出，平均距离为 7 英里，27.5 公里 (37)。

根据该提案，一名在该地区行驶 I-10 进入市中心且每年行驶 10-9 英里的餐厅从业者，在 2027 年将被收取 $500，而今年为 $600；如果这两年的账单适用 4.5% 的增幅，那么到 2025 年可能会增长到 $1,000 左右，比 2026 年多出 $400，这是一项初步估算。

当然，由于这在 2025 年仍然是一个实际问题，因此涉及公共政策，但州参议员、前收费公路主管 Bill Morris 表示这是“公共政策”。

年度报告还显示，金额分别为 2025 年 $1.29 亿、$1.34 亿 (2024)、$1.36 亿 (2024)、$1.44 亿 (2024) 和 $1.59 亿 (2025)。这代表 2025 年增长了 12%，2025 年增长近 3.2%，2024 年增长约 4.4%，2025 年增长 2.8%。

“在过去四年中，我们全国的通胀导致总收入一直在增加。为什么我们现在要把它变成一个巨大的增幅，以及 2027 年怎么说，但我们对此有很好的方案，”John Smith 针对该提案表示，一名在该地区行驶 I-10 进入市中心且每年行驶 10-9 英里的餐厅从业者，在 2027 年将被收取 $500，而今年为 $600；如果这两年的账单适用 4.5% 的增幅，那么到 2025 年可能会增长到 $1,000 左右，比 2026 年多出 $400，这是一项初步估算。

“由于这在 2025 年仍然是一个实际问题，我们曾持有公共政策，但这是‘公共政策’，”州参议员、前收费公路主管 Bill Morris 表示。

随后提到公司车辆，以及最重要的沟通材料包括钢材，且道路现代化将影响消费者并降低燃料消耗。两年一次的调整将使收入随维护和提高 2025 年质量的成本上升而增长，但州参议员、前收费公路主管 Bill Morris 表示这是“公共政策”。

Maret 报告称，“如果你把 20 年的整个步骤放在一起，我们如何鼓励收费公路维持后付费，以及如何成为降低 2025 年生活成本的好方法，”John Smith 针对该提案表示，一名在该地区行驶 I-10 进入市中心且每年行驶 10-9 英里的餐厅从业者，在 2027 年将被收取 $500，而今年为 $600；如果这两年的账单适用 4.5% 的增幅，那么到 2025 年可能会增长到 $1,000 左右，比 2026 年多出 $400，这是一项初步估算。

然而，他指出，伊利诺伊州议会已在行业中迈出重要一步，使他们 2025 年的请求得以维持。“如果我处于关闭状态，我会对那些旨在提高费率并降低费率的立法感到反感。”

纳珀维尔 (NAPERVILLE)

小组称应取消欢乐时光禁令

作者：Carolyn Stein 内珀维尔太阳报（NAPERVILLE SUN）

重新审视内珀维尔

如果内珀维尔 2025 竞选活动能促成内珀维尔酒类委员会（Naperville Liquor Commission）周四的一致建议，内珀维尔的餐厅和酒吧顾客可能很快能再次享受几杯打折且在非高峰时段供应的鸡尾酒。该委员会此前建议不要取消对“欢乐时光”（happy hour）的限制。

针对欢乐时光提出的新指南将参照州法规，但有几项不同，例如打折饮品必须在晚上 7 点结束，而非州政府规定的晚上 10 点截止时间。

“与周边社区相比，我们在竞争中处于劣势，也许是因为没有欢乐时光，”Rough's Rhencom 运营副总裁 Kevin Reed 表示。

Reed 表示，今年 2 月，他遇到一对在内珀维尔寻找餐厅的夫妇，他们询问该餐厅提供什么样的欢乐时光特惠。当餐厅最终告知无法提供时，他说：“由于当地限制，我无法提供特惠酒精饮品，这对该夫妇造成了困扰。”

“他们说，好吧，那我们就去 Flintshold，”他说。他提到，虽然 Atche & Agree 和 Haggards Naperville 提供欢乐时光食品折扣，但如果能同时提供打折饮品，两家店的收入可能会增加约 15%。Reed 希望能取消非高峰时段的限制。

多人（其中一些人并非从事餐饮业）对这一变更表示支持。内珀维尔 River's Senate 国家委员会主席 Monica Conners 对那些位于其他社区边界的餐厅表示特别关注。她说，当地法律损害了这些餐厅。

“我们的许多连锁餐厅实际上今天无法前来，因为它们属于国家公司，但它们不会变得庞大，因为我们是全国少数几个不提供欢乐时光的社区之一，”Conners 代表 Dine Naperville 表示。“因此，从营销团队的角度来看，他们很难管理针对这些店推出的营销计划。”

Dine Naperville 总经理 John Zydowicz 表示，许多在下午 4 点到 6 点之间来到他餐厅的顾客从未了解过餐厅的年龄。

“我不确定人们是否在滥用欢乐时光饮品。”

“每个来自内珀维尔的人都应该选择我们的项目。那些进来寻找欢乐时光的人感到失望，而且有超过 2,000 人表示，‘因为没有酒类特惠，他们什么都不买，而他们正在寻找餐厅公司’。”

在伊利诺伊州，欢乐时光促销曾被法律禁止，随后州长 Bruce Kramer 签署立法允许其在有限制的情况下回归，包括禁止在特定日期和每周 15 小时内提供，以及禁止像“买一赠一”这样的量大特惠。

尽管州政府的禁令在十多年前就已取消，但内珀维尔酒类委员会在 2017 年投票决定维持该市对欢乐时光的禁令。

“我不确定人们是否改变了。”委员 Steve Chicks 表示，当时该市仍在努力研究如何控制所有相关的酒精事件。

“我们市中心当时发生了很多事情。情况失去了控制，”他说。“那是社交媒体开始变得非常非常流行的时候，而那是一件好事。我们首先意识到内珀维尔的情况以及夜晚会发生什么。”

这包括 2016 年至 2020 年间的一起醉驾车祸，一名人在内珀维尔公园区一个充满水的采石场中溺亡，以及 2012 年一名小学教师在芝加哥大道一家俱乐部内发生意外而导致死亡。

在这些及其他事件发生后，该市实施了一系列限制措施以帮助遏制与酒精相关的麻烦，包括禁止顾客在餐厅或计划关闭前一小时内留在市内。

当委员会撤销快乐时光（happy hour）且该州的内珀维尔（Naperville）开始掌控其酒精问题时，委员会担心取消禁令会破坏已取得的成果。餐饮经理在周四辩称，自那时起，已经出现了许多允许人们在保证安全的情况下享受快乐时光的问题。Ralstons service side Ubar 和 Lyd 变得更加受欢迎，以及餐厅业主无法购买的技术。酒类专员表示同意。“我很愿意支持一家餐厅。我很愿意支持快乐时光的‘主要’指南。”克里斯·利奇（Chris Leach）表示：“我认为目前这样做是有意义的。我认为我们对环境产生的一些担忧，以及我认为我们已经实施的规则。”内珀维尔委员会将在未来的会议上就该问题做出最终决定。

药物（接第2A页）对于已经接受过先前治疗的转移性胰腺癌患者，在加入研究后，这些患者的中位生存期约为 13 个月，而接受额外化疗而非 daracourash 的患者中位生存期约为六个月。希望之城芝加哥癌症中心（City of Hope Cancer Center Chicago）的医学肿瘤学家 Ryan Plock 博士称，这是数十年来治疗胰腺癌的最大进展。“坦白说，这是一个游戏规则的改变，”Plock 表示，“这改变了我们能为患者提供的东西。这是我们能够为他们提供的第一种靶向疗法，也是除化疗之外的第一种选择。”该药物尚未获得美国食品药品监督管理局（FDA）的批准，但 FDA 允许药物制造商 Revolution Medicines 在一项过期时间计划下，将该药物提供给已经尝试过其他治疗的符合条件的转移性胰腺癌患者。医生必须向 Revolution 公司提交单个患者的用药申请。所提供的药物旨在用于扩展访问计划（expanded access program）的患者。“这让患者获得了一种优势，不必坐等或等待，因为他们中的许多人没有那样的时间，”Plock 在谈到扩展访问计划时说道。Plock 表示，在希望之城芝加哥癌症中心，Gardner 是开始接受该药物的七到八名患者之一。最近几周，根据扩展访问计划开始向患者提供该药物的其他伊利诺伊州医疗系统包括 Advocate Health Care、ODT HealthCare、Endoway Health 和芝加哥大学医学中心（University of Chicago Medicine）。芝加哥大学医学中心也是近期该药物研究的临床试验点。芝加哥大学医学中心的医学肿瘤学家兼 bodyinvestigator of the Associated Anheuser Shergill 博士表示，该药物增强那些尝试过其他治疗的患者生存能力的效果在“胰腺癌领域是前所未有的”。“在肿瘤学中，我们试图帮助患者延长寿命，”Shergill 说道，“如果你能实现这一点，那就太棒了。这就是治疗转移性疾病的目标。”Shergill 表示，患者在研究中还报告称，与化疗相比，使用 daracourash 后他们的疼痛、食欲和精力状况有所改善。其中一名患者

Gardner 在希望之城芝加哥癌症中心服用第一剂 daracourash。在通过芝加哥大学医学中心接受该药物的患者中，来自 Brownsville 的 94, 岁 Mary Louise McAdams 表示，她在 2024. 年被诊断出患有胰腺癌时，最初被告知大概只有六个月到一年的生存期。她说她接受了化疗和放疗，但治疗在她的体内产生了反应。她说，曾有一次她因为副作用不得不住院。当她得知可以通过扩展访问计划获得这种新药时，她认为这听起来很有希望，想尝试一下。McAdams 目前使用 daracourash 约两周。 “我希望我能进一步延长生命。我不知道能延长多久，但比起多活六个月到一年，我想尽可能长久地活下去，只要我还能维持功能并能在一定程度上照顾自己。我期待着能与我的孩子和孙辈共同度过更多年岁，”拥有五个孩子和四个孙辈的 McAdams 说道。Gardner 于 7 月下旬在位于 Zion 的希望之城芝加哥癌症中心服用药物，她说，在几年前被诊断出患有胰腺癌时，她从未想象过一种新药可能会帮助她延长寿命。

在那段时间里，Gardner 并没有意识到情况不对，但她的手臂和胸部出现了严重的皮疹。她说，她去了家附近的一家紧急护理中心，使用了泼尼松（prednisone）和 Rematch 来消除皮疹。但皮疹没有好转，她还出现了黄疸，于是进行了进一步检查，结果显示她的肝脏和胆囊有问题。最终，她被诊断出患有胰腺癌。接到电话时，她和未婚夫正坐在厨房桌旁。“我们看着对方，然后开始哭泣，”Gardner 说。她说她当时想，“我现在就要死了。我们该怎么办？”在另一家医院，Gardner 经历了数月艰苦的化疗，以及一次名为 Whipple 手术的复杂手术，该手术涉及切除胰头、部分小肠、胆囊和胆管。她说，随后她被告知需要进行更多化疗，在那时，她决定寻求其他医院的意见，包括 City of Hope Cancer Center Chicago。她对这家医院及其团队印象深刻，决定留在那里。有一段时间，她的体内没有疾病迹象。这种情况一直持续到 2025 年春季，她说癌症复发了。她开始尝试另一种类型的化疗，并在今年早些时候接受了放射治疗。然而，到今年 5 月，daracourash 已经证明化疗和放疗对她不再起作用。Gardner 说：“我不能让癌症击败我。我想，‘不，我绝不会那样做。’”支持她康复的是 City of Hope Cancer Center Chicago 正在为她和其他患者申请使用 daracourash 的观点。Gardner 的经历表明了临床研究的重要性，Debra DeBone 是 City of Hope 的首席执行官，该机构在伊利诺伊州、加利福尼亚州、乔治亚州和亚利桑那州设有癌症中心。“有时，疗法通过常规监管系统需要很长时间，而发现的速度如此之快，以至于有时临床试验和扩大准入计划是患者的最佳治疗选择。这就是一个完美的例子，”Reese 说。现在 Gardner 已经接受了这种必须每天服用的药物，这也代表了未来一年的希望。她希望这些药片能给她更多时间。更多时间与未婚夫一起进行公路旅行并尝试新餐厅。更多时间教学。更多时间陪伴她的两个成年儿子，以及那些叫她 Gaga 阿姨的小孙辈和曾孙辈。Gardner 说：“希望就在那里。”

多纳斯格罗夫 (DOWNERS GROVE) # 下水道淹没幸存者要求保存证据

作者：Susan DeAmoulias 《每日先驱报》(DAILY HERALD)

一名在多纳斯格罗夫下水道淹没事故中幸存的男子，其律师正申请一项法院命令，以保存当天事故的证据。该事故导致一名工人死亡。

代表 J. Guadalupe Almanza 的律师、Cothier's Dentistry 合伙人 Michelle Kohut 表示，她正请求库克县法官下令保存 7 月 27 日发生在多纳斯格罗夫的事故证据。她还寻求许可，以传唤包括负责下水道工程的德克萨斯州 Vortex Systems LLC 公司在内的多个实体的记录。

Kohut 表示，事故发生时，包括她的当事人在内的四名 Vortex 员工正在雨水下水道中工作。该村镇聘请 Vortex 负责一项雨水下水道维护项目。 称，工人们当时正在对管道内部进行喷涂。工人们关闭了从圣约瑟夫路 (St. Joseph's road) 进入管道的水流，卡车停在多纳斯格罗夫市中心下方。管道中剩余的水量大约 。

根据 的说法，这四名工人没有在管道外部系任何安全绳。当一场剧烈风暴袭来时，他们距离管道口大约 1,000 。 表示，管道迅速被雨水填满，工人们陷入了深水中。

Almanza 是进入管道的人员之一，他能够踩水并设法回到一个检修孔。他和另一名工人得以 。根据 的说法，Almanza 听到 10 岁的 Ivan A. Perez 在大声呼救。他试图掀开其他检修孔盖以寻找 Perez。与此同时，消防员成功救出了第三人。Perez 的遗体于次日 7 月 28 日被发现。

“这看起来就像是一场本可以避免的悲剧，” 说道。

正在请求获取来自多个渠道的记录，包括该公司、多纳斯格罗夫警察局、设计该项目的工程公司以及美国职业安全与健康管理局 (OSHA)。她还想要证人陈述、照片、调查报告和保险记录的副本。

Yoga 和 Lee 很快介入其中。他还把约翰逊的幕僚长 Cristina Paciano-Zayts 也列入了邮件。3 月 3 日，Lee 写道：“谢谢希拉。CDPH 团队，请尽快向我们提供交付，在市长办公室，如果通过口头讨论更容易接触到客户，我们也可以进行电话沟通。我们的兴趣在于尽快将新媒体 / 倡导者纳入该计划。” 第二天，他参加了与 CDPH 官员的会议。根据我们通过《信息自由法》请求获得的卫生部门记录，医院的首席信息官 LeVion Stone 和里根在会上争论称，该部门的审计以及随后试图改进新实践如何监控救护车人员进度的尝试完全是不合理的。这场审计之争是数月以来挫败感的顶点，电子邮件记录显示，其中一点曾探讨过不取消 Acclivat 合同的想法。在给 Tribune 的声明中，里根和该组织的高级联络员 Novels 均否认该组织（在 2024 年评奖过程中得分最高）曾向市府招标过程中寻求优待。里根写道：“我们理解指挥链和协议，”并补充说 Acclivat 从未追求额外的资金，或对最终金额寻求“明确度”。“只有在无法从 获得及时且完整的回复时，我们才进行了适当的升级。” 至于 Lee 的深度介入，Novels 表示，在 2024 年预算于 12 月底极晚地通过后，他仅建议进行一次通话以“防止进一步的延迟、错误和混乱”。但一旦市府的救护车资金获得批准，Novels 表示 将更多的额外资金分配给了其他方，如大都会家庭服务中心（Metropolitan Family Services）。Novels 写道：“ 在增加投资的具体分配上没有咨询市长办公室，其更新后的提案在获得市长办公室批准后也没有改变。市长办公室唯一的干预是确保预算资金被恰当地用于满足外展和其他关键项目，而具体哪些团体获得了资金以及金额多少则由 决定。” Acclivat 与 Lee 之间产生分歧的根源在于卫生部门为该团体发出的一封显示该组织成功的授奖信。Novels 表示，如果可以的话，“我们希望讨论一个单独的工作范围”，并称那是 的一个“文书”错误，而 1.6万,0万这个金额保持不变。与此同时，伊利诺伊州执行董事 Alias Kaplan 表示，看到市长的高层领导介入令人惊讶，因为这“触及了 2024 年平台的年度争议，而不是将其交给 ”。Kaplan 写道：“如果 Ige 博士的描述准确，那么问题在于不应期望市长办公室给予特殊待遇，且据报道向市政厅申诉是针对受助者的国家要求而采取的有效措施。目前尚不清楚他们是否寻求了这种特殊待遇，但医院办公室的部分参与者与市长办公室的关系过于密切，以及这是否影响了数百万公共资金的支出方式。” Ige 拒绝接受 Tribune 的采访，但他表示自己是法律与 Acclivat 之间定期会议的成员。2 月 10 日，Ige 写信给 Lee 以及当时的 Mayor of Safety Garland（由 2024 年国家行动与人类服务行动 Carville 提交）称：“所有关于额外资金的细节都将由 负责，旨在落实今年的暴力预防工作。” 在这些资金产生最终结果之前，重要的是我们的——

卫生专员 Okaambe Ige 博士在 2025 年 8 月 12 日于芝加哥市政厅举行的新闻发布会上，就心理健康诊所和社区安全提供最新进展。Ige 的电子邮件记录显示，在法律与 Acclivat 之间经历了数月的长期。ANTONIO PEREO 芝加哥论坛报 门禁可以并且将会与我们合作，以确保所有支持他们工作的相关数据都能被提供。以下是关于 Acclivat 的所有问题。 声称 最初对市府针对寻求救护车资金的公司发出的征求建议书（RFP）采取了“拒绝申请”的态度，而是直接向市长办公室请求资金，但“我们最终让他们申请了 RFP”。随后她写道，“389y 复制， 拒绝签署合同并要求预付款——在多次会议后，我们最终让他们申请了。”只有 Gatewood（他本人在次月被解雇）回复了 的邮件链并向她表示感谢。 在同一天将该邮件链转发给了 Paxime-Zame。里根在声明中反击了这位前卫生专员：“ 博士在电子邮件中提出的主张全部是毫无根据的，且不合逻辑。”市府通常在采购过程中发布 RFP 以竞争性价格征集服务，这一做法旨在遏制在市府合同中通过政治献金换取利益的行为。最近一次在社区暴力干预项下授予资金的流程始于 2024 年秋季，结果导致 和大都会家庭服务中心（Metropolitan Family Services）获得了拨款，且两者均获得了延期至年底的期限。 之前在 CV1 资金问题上也与前市长 Lori Lightfoot 的政府发生过冲突——里根的审计报告中记录了这一最终尝试。里根写道：“芝加哥公共卫生局（CDPH）领导层内部对 存在偏见，这可以追溯到前任政府，我们也必须将其追溯到市长 Lightfoot 政府的幕僚长 Maurice (Clawett)。”根据里根的说法，这种摩擦产生是因为“我们提出担忧，CV1 和受害者服务 RFP 的编写方式排除了包括 在内的合格持有者”。但她没有说明 是否曾在 任期内申请过街道外展资金。要求匿名的消息人士告诉《论坛报》， 的高管曾接触过至少四名 政府的高级官员以寻求市府资金，但每次都被告知必须通过竞争性资金流程。消息人士称，鲍威尔据称告诉 政府的另一名成员，她认为该团体应该获得资金，并请求另外两名官员与 的领导层会面。一名消息人士指称，该议员亲自告诉 ， 应该获得市府资金，但前市长予以拒绝，称该团体必须经过 RFP 流程。在被要求置评时，鲍威尔表示她“从未与李就此事讨论过任何事情”，仅记得向 Susan Lee（ 的公共安全副市长）提到过 ：“你看过这个团体吗？”鲍威尔说，“仅限于此。我一直认为他们必须经过 RFP 流程。我的重点是让政府承认，全市各地都有从事暴力干预工作的团体。”记录显示，鲍威尔的政治竞选活动在 2023 年至 2024 年期间向 的社区和公民参与总监 B趟um (Wadek) 支付了费用，并在 2016 年至去年 11 月期间向其政治咨询公司 Goshen Impact Services 支付了费用。他告诉《论坛报》，她聘请他担任顾问，但否认这与她对他反暴力团体的兴趣有关，随后表示：“我不想成为猎巫行动的一部分。我没力气再应对了。” 2 月份电子邮件的其余部分提到，该团体最近与（市长办公室）相关的消息是对方拒绝与项目团队会面；她强调，在针对暴力预防计划文档的公开记录请求之后，市府必须能够“支持我的触达范围”。

次周，她在 2 月 17 日给 Lee、Paciano-Zane、Gatewood 和 Camville 发过电子邮件，发出了最严厉的警告：“我最近的担忧是，鉴于目前面临的挑战，我们是否应该考虑延长与 Acclivat 的合同。”卫生局去年还对 Metropolitan Family Services 的反暴力项目进行了审计。没有迹象表明该组织在审计结果上与市府产生了分歧。在给 Tribune 的声明中，Regan 对市府审计的参数提出了质疑。Novels 的声明还提到“审计现已关闭”，且市长办公室并未参与其中。Regan 写道：“被列为‘审计结果’的项目中，没有一项实际上构成审计违规，因为没有一项代表未能达到 CDPH 制定的任何标准。”“在 3 月 4 日 Acclivat 与 CDPH 进行的一次记录在案的通话后， 向 Acclivat 反馈称没有审计结果，这使得通话后的讨论重点转向了新的追加资金，而非审计结果。 要求的所有文件均已提交给 Acclivat。”这次一小时的通话受到了市府的质疑。在会议期间，医疗主任 Mark Jenny Hua 博士询问了关于该组织街头外展和个案管理人员的未决名单，卫生局从反暴力资助对象那里收集这些名单，以评估每位参与者的转诊情况。 反驳称，任何不匹配都是“由 造成的”，因为 移除了其报告门户的访问权限，并在此提供了适当的街头分布以清理数据。“但这不能改变审计结果，即数字就是不匹配，”对方回应道，“请向我们展示你们是如何得出这些数字的。”视频记录显示， 反复质疑审计结果的措辞是“某种煽动性的语言”，促使 助理专员 John Karamanufa 最终在结束时表示：“我们很乐意探讨重新措辞的可能性。”Lee 在通话进行到大约一半时登录了 Truma 报告，但没有发言。随后，一名部门流行病学家在 3 月 13 日发送了一封内部邮件，对 的后续备忘录表示担忧，因为“通过将 Jason Lee 列为第一接收人，她是在表态，所以我不想卷入其中。” 坚持认为 Lee 已经被包含在内，并要求她自己和 Hua 参与任何关于该审计的未来通信，该审计随后被标记为“实地访问后续”。在给 Tribune 的回复中， 提供了一封来自 管理员的电子邮件，该邮件在 7 月 24 日确认“数据及其操作似乎是正确的”。Hua 和 Karamanufa 未被包含在内。街头外展工作首先： 共同开启 2-3 到 12, 2, 4, 2, 5, 2, 6, 2, 7, 2, 8, 2, 9, 2, 10, 2, 11, 2, 12, 2, 13, 2, 14, 2, 15, 2, 16, 2, 17, 2, 18, 2, 19, 2, 20, 2, 21, 2, 22, 2, 23, 2, 24, 2, 25, 2, 26, 2, 27, 2, 28, 2, 29, 2, 30, 2, 31, 2, 32, 2, 33, 2, 34, 2, 35, 2, 36, 2, 37, 2, 38, 2, 39, 2, 40, 2, 41, 2, 42, 2, 43, 2, 44, 2, 45, 2, 46, 2, 47, 2, 48, 2, 49, 2, 50, 2, 51, 2, 52, 2, 53, 2, 54, 2, 55, 2, 56, 2, 57, 2, 58, 2, 59, 2, 60, 2, 61, 2, 62, 2, 63, 2, 64, 2, 65, 2, 66, 2, 67, 2, 68, 2, 69, 2, 70, 2, 71, 2, 72, 2, 73, 2, 74, 2, 75, 2, 76, 2, 77, 2, 78, 2, 79, 2, 80, 2, 81, 2, 82, 2, 83, 2, 84, 2, 85, 2, 86, 2, 87, 2, 88, 2, 89, 2, 90, 2, 91, 2, 92, 2, 93, 2, 94, 2, 95, 2, 96, 2, 97, 2, 98, 2, 99, 3, 00, 3, 01, 3, 02, 3, 03, 3, 04, 3, 05, 3, 06, 3, 07, 3, 08, 3, 09, 3, 10, 3, 11, 3, 12, 3, 13, 3, 14, 3, 15, 3, 16, 3, 17, 3, 18, 3, 19, 3, 20, 3, 21, 3, 22, 3, 23, 3, 24, 3, 25, 3, 26, 3, 27, 3, 28, 3, 29, 3, 30, 3, 31, 3, 32, 3, 33, 3, 34, 3, 35, 3, 36, 3, 37, 3, 38, 3, 39, 3, 40, 3, 41, 3, 42, 3, 43, 3, 44, 3, 45, 3, 46, 3, 47, 3, 48, 3, 49, 3, 50, 3, 51, 3, 52, 3, 53, 3, 54, 3, 55, 3, 56, 3, 57, 3, 58, 3, 59, 3, 60, 3, 61, 3, 62, 3, 63, 3, 64, 3, 65, 3, 66, 3, 67, 3, 68, 3, 69, 3, 70, 3, 71, 3, 72, 3, 73, 3, 74, 3, 75, 3, 76, 3, 77, 3, 78, 3, 79, 3, 80, 3, 81, 3, 82, 3, 83, 3, 84, 3, 85, 3, 86, 3, 87, 3, 88, 3, 89, 3, 90, 3, 91, 3, 92, 3, 93, 3, 94, 3, 95, 3, 96, 3, 97, 3, 98, 3, 99, 4, 00

或实施枪支暴力。数十年后，芝加哥各社区拥有一个极其庞大的治疗网络，并且得到了更多民选官员的认可。但就像芝加哥的许多事情一样，关于 watery miners 的问题仍然是一个潜伏的暗流。而处于争议中心的该组织长期以来与 mirror 及其他政治人物保持着联系。2024年11月——当时该市已预计将对救护车合同采取竞争性招标流程——根据竞选资金记录，约翰逊的政治基金向 2024 捐赠了 $3.5万,000。他的竞选发言人 Christian Peirz 在一份声明中表示，这些款项为 $100万,000,000，且属于“抗体捐赠”，其中还包括 After School Matters 和 Don's Chicago Dream。捐赠总额为 $15万,000，与 wages I'd think 在 2025 年向约翰逊政治基金捐赠的金额相同。Peirz 没有说明这三笔来自竞选团体的支出是否是在其 2024年10月因雇凶杀人指控被定罪之后。Regan 表示，该款项“与任何服务无关，目前仍未支出，存放于 Acclivat 的储备金中”。记录显示，Acclivat 的首席执行官 three 在那年秋天 RFP 关闭前亲自联系了约翰逊。2024年11月25日，8mm-tent Ige 发送了一封标题为“暴力预防”的电子邮件，并抄送给 memo、Obadely、Regan 和 Black' George chain 以及 Nephanie Coleman，这根据约翰逊的电子邮件日志显示。None 在去年 2 月 6 日再次给约翰逊发送了邮件，主题为“CDPH 支付方式”。Obadely 曾任伊利诺伊州儿童与家庭服务局副职，并于 2016 年因欺诈罪被定罪，他在 2023 年 3 月向市长的政治基金捐赠了 $500，并在今年 3 月又捐赠了 $500，但两张支票都被退回，Peirz 表示这是应 的要求。 表示，他原本打算通过他的咨询公司而非个人账户进行捐赠。在 2023 年决选至 2024 年选举期间，约翰逊的竞选团队向 的公司支付了 $9.7万,000。与此同时，Regan 加入了约翰逊的代表团，于 5 月在梵蒂冈会见了教皇 Lee XIV，Acclivat 在一篇 Instagram 帖子中对此表示，暴力预防“是约翰逊政府的一项关键优先事项，且与 Acclivat 的目标一致”。 对此利益也毫不掩饰。“我与布兰登·约翰逊市长同行，我不在乎谁不喜欢这两个大问题，”他在 7 月 16, 写道，在列举了 Riding's 的名单和 heart 之后，以“FOD”结尾，这是“Expletive / curbs / law”的缩写。 --- 7

各代人群聚集在第97届 Bud Billiken 大游行

By Lila Hempel-Edgers CHICAGO TRIBUNE

周六，鼓队的敲击声在 Bonneville 回荡，数千名观众挤满了数英里的街道，占据位置以一窥组织者称之为全国规模最大的黑人游行。

但 Corey Tykka 站在人群后几英尺处，静静地等待女儿的啦啦队走过。他从小就看着这些游行长大，他说，现在他的 10 岁女儿将首次成为这一传统的一部分。

“这场游行一直陪伴着我，现在我的女儿也参加了，”50 岁的 Tykka 说。“这向你展示了有多少人在支持下一代。”

芝加哥第 97 届年度 Bud Billiken 大游行是一场对黑人文化和社区的庆祝活动，于周六上午在 39 街和 South King Drive 的交叉口启动。被昵称为“The Bud”的这场游行吸引了数千名观众和几代家庭，他们观看乐队、舞蹈和钻研队向 Washington Park 进发。

南区原住民、演员 Lindsay McCoy 担任今年的大元帅。几十年来，巴拉克·奥巴马和哈里·杜鲁门总统曾出席，以及像奥普拉·温弗瑞和 Chance the Raptor 这样的艺人。

周六的一些参与者比其他人更熟悉游行的知名访客。其中包括 Lolo，一个 10 岁的孩子，坐在 Rowson Harrier 的肩膀上。

“她见过市长和州长，”Harrier 自豪地介绍 Lolo，她从小就是游行的常客。“她很喜欢。”

其他人参加的时间更长，无论搬到多远的地方，年复一年地回到这个社区。Pamela Willis 从 Montgaro 开车前来与她的姐妹一起参加庆祝活动，这是她们在 Bonneville 成长过程中共同拥有的夏季传统。

虽然今年大约有 500 个团体参加，但 Willis 仍然想念她小时候记得的克莱兹代尔马。但这位 69 岁的老人认为，这座城市致力于延续这场庆祝活动的承诺是值得支持的，而且每年回来都能让她直接回到童年。

“感觉像回家一样，”她说。

她的姐妹一手拿着行走杖，另一手拿着一个椰子雪锥，表示赞同。63 岁的 Marie Willis 说，看着几代家庭每年回来，这给了孩子们一个向前辈致敬的机会。

“我们中的一些人在这里创造了历史，”较年轻的 Willis 姐妹说。“来到这里是为了给我们社区带来支持。”

自 1929 年以来，这场游行每年夏天都会举行，庆祝学生们准备迎接新的学年。

根据州政府网站，今年游行恰逢伊利诺伊州的临时销售税减免期（从 8 月 7 日持续到 8 月 16 日），将符合条件的服装、鞋类和学校用品的州销售税从 4.25% 降低到 1.25%。

周六，在 Washington Park 的终点附近发放了学校用品，并为成人和儿童提供免费理发和健康检查。

但除了学术支持，这次活动还给了年轻人展示才华的机会。

“城市能为孩子们做这件事真的很不错，”48 岁的 Demetrix Adams 在一家养老院外的轮椅上观看时说。“让孩子们暂时离开街道。”

Simone Moore 为 Marching Broncos 鼓掌，这是 Rosewood Academy 高中的行进乐队，他们穿着厚厚的红色夹克，戴着圆柱形帽子走过。随着数十名穿着 Bowling, Chula 的孩子紧随其后，踩着《哈利·波特》电影歌曲的密集节奏，她的欢呼声变得更响了。

当地的孩子们花了一整年时间为游行做准备，而摩尔在她的邦内维尔（Bonneville）家中，曾看到他们穿着戏服往返于练习场地。她说，她希望自己的孩子将来有一天也能加入其中。“这就是社区的感觉，”43岁的摩尔说道，“你能看到芝加哥南区所代表的一切，以及我们彼此之间的爱。”

对于12岁的基劳·道森（Kirau Dawson）来说，准备游行让她这个夏天非常忙碌，练习从每周三天增加到周六之前的每日排练。这是她第四年参加表演，她所在的团体是 Geek Skep and Dance Company，这是一个青少年舞蹈和翻滚组织。她说，游行是她这个夏天的亮点，让她在进入沃尔特·迪士尼磁校（Walt Disney Magnet School）就读七年级之前有了期待。但道森说，最棒的部分是沿着路线观看的观众。“这让我觉得我取得了一些成就，”她说，“就像是我足够努力，所以人们才会为我欢呼。”

居民对量子园区感到措手不及

作者：Darcel Rockett 芝加哥论坛报

在钢铁工人公园（Steelworkers Park）里，蝴蝶和蜻蜓在原生植物和花卉周围飞舞，这些植物在水位较高处生长。公共艺术和社区墙壁巍然屹立，向游客展示着美国股票。南作品区（South Works）在最后的工业时代留下了不可磨灭的环境足迹。现在，穿行于该区域意味着要面对并倾听一项耗资 90 亿美元 billion 的伊利诺伊量子与 3000 钢铁工人公园（Illinois Quantum and 3000 steelworkers Park）的建设工程。这是一个占地 440 英亩的开发项目，位于油工艺场址，于去年秋季启动，旨在实现无畏，并与钢铁工人公园相邻。

在奠基仪式上，州长 J.B. Pritzker 将该项目描述为吸引就业和经济投资的磁石。总部位于加利福尼亚州的 ProQuantum 同意成为该园区的核心租户，其他科技公司，包括 IBM 以及由联邦国防高级研究计划局（DARPA）资助的公司，也将在此设立运营机构。

但在与寻求更高透明度的东南区社区和基层组织进行了数月的沟通后，总部位于芝加哥的足科医生兼 Respac Media 联合创始人戴蒙·威廉姆斯（Damon Williams）和丹尼尔·基辛格（Daniel Kissinger）发现了另一种观点。

“支持这个项目的州长、私营工业和学术界联盟表示，它有能力解决不合适的问题，但我们了解到，它也有可能导致社区搬迁、破坏我们的环境，并摧毁我们所认知的数字隐私，”威廉姆斯说道。

尽管像 Pritzker 这样的伊利诺伊州官员对该地成为计算技术领导者的前景感到兴奋，但居民和活动人士组成的联盟正在进行抵制，理由是对水资源和电力增加、监管、噪音污染、基础设施、数字隐私以及额外监控的担忧。

威廉姆斯和基辛格为其多媒体调查专题“量子纠缠”（Quantum Entanglements）设定的目标，是确保公众能够 360 度全面地看待该开发项目及其背后的量子技术。

基辛格表示，尽管计划中包括一家医院、一个 128 英亩的量子计算设施和办公空间，但关于量子园区最终将包含什么内容，目前还缺乏清晰度。他补充说，虽然对园区的愿景已经存在，但对于城市而言，目前还没有完整的足迹图，这让当地居民感到不安。

南岸（South Shore）居民、自称“公民科学家”的安妮·霍尔科姆（Anne Holcomb）表示，社区没有被邀请参加量子园区的仪式。

“从未有人问过我们想要那片土地如何利用……我们一直被蒙在鼓里，然后这件事就被抛给了我们。你认为我们会怎么想？”霍尔科姆说道。

在时长 45 分钟的播客中，威廉姆斯和基辛格讨论了量子园区的起源、潜在危害以及围绕该场地的众多反对意见，分享了共同的经历。该播客强调了项目缺乏透明度以及技术周围的模糊性。

“一直以来这就是问题所在，”社区组织者兼 ETHOS（环境、交通、健康和开放空间）共同主席霍尔科姆说道。这个基层环境正义组织总部位于南区和东南区，目前正主导推动在该场地达成一项社区利益协议。

霍尔科姆表示，城市规划的正确方式是在非常早期的阶段与社区会面。

自从 2024 年夏天公布量子园区计划以来，人们对该开发的看法就像它将所在的社区一样，多种多样。基辛格和威廉姆斯指出了 ETHOS 以及其他几个正在组织活动的当地倡导团体，包括东南区联盟（Alliance for the Southeast）和南区同心会（Southside Together）。

“量子校园东南邻里协会”（Southeast Neighbors for Quantum）支持量子校园，而“南区同心会”（Southside Together）则希望阻止它。尽管 ETHOS 并不希望阻碍该开发项目，但霍尔科姆（Holcomb）表示，一个倡导团体联盟正在推动开发商就社区关注的问题达成具有约束力的协议，例如环境和住房保护、居民就业以及对该地区学校和公园的投资。霍尔科姆将达成协议视为一种减轻损害的策略。

围绕量子校园的冲突并非个例。根据芝加哥前线基金（Chicago Frontlines Fund）共同主任安东尼奥·洛佩兹（Antonio Lopez）的说法，这种紧张局势普遍出现在大型开发项目周围。该基金为基层环境正义倡议提供资助。洛佩兹指出了城市中的其他开发项目，例如林肯码头（Lincoln Yards）、在小村庄（Little Village）的前克劳福德发电站（Crawford Power Generating Station）安装一座 100 英尺高的烟囱，以及唐人街附近的 The 76 开发项目。正在开发的量子公园就属于此类项目。

“这延续了城市中许多社区长期以来发生的情况，”洛佩兹说。“存在很多旧伤口和很多不信任。这些是非常重大的项目，涉及很多利益，不仅是对那些个人而言，而且是对未来 10 年芝加哥将呈现的样子而言。人们以后还能负担得起在这里生活吗？现在有很多事情在发生，我们赞赏 Respac 在提高意识和以易懂的方式解释复杂事物方面所做的工作。”洛佩兹的基金为“量子纠缠”（Quantum Entanglement）项目的完成提供了资助。

“在多次尝试在该地块开发混合收入住房和其他商业开发之后，‘在原本空无一物的地方出现了一些东西’这种感觉是非常诱人的，”基辛格（Kissinger）说。“但那个‘东西’究竟是什么才至关重要。必须问的是：‘我们引入用来填补空白的东西是否真的能够满足我们的需求？’”这些需求包括在现场设立一个社区可访问的信用合作社，以及在相邻的钢铁工人公园（Steelworkers Park）设置公共洗手间和饮水设施。基辛格表示，虽然该公园的设施不如其他公园那样完善，但它仍然满足了社区对公共空间的需求。

威廉姆斯（Williams）表示，围绕量子技术的问题最终归结为自决权和流离失所的问题。“社区能够或不能塑造其环境的方式，以及以民主方式或尊重人们生活经验自主权的方式应对损害和危险的方式，”他说。“引入与社区经济需求不符的开发项目，是导致流离失所的另一种方式。”

“量子纠缠”在经过修改研究后于 7 月发布。这项最新工作是由 Alliance Matters 运动协作资助的，该运动是芝加哥独立媒体联盟（CIMA）和菲尔德基金会（Field Foundation）的一项倡议。该项目提供印刷版、视频版和音频版（附带听读指南）。

“现在发生的很多事情对于当地人来说感觉规模太大了，”洛佩兹说。“我们想证明这一点。我们认为，如果这些社区的成员能够对当地发生的开发类型拥有发言权，情况会更好。”

自从基辛格和威廉姆斯一年多前为“量子纠缠”采访霍尔科姆以来，ETHOS 每月与开发商 Related Midwest 以及伊利诺伊州环境保护局举行对话。ETHOS 的志愿者定期监测现场，以确保开发商负责任地开展工作。随着工程的推进，特殊的洒水和街道清洁是减轻施工和修复期间扬起的灰尘和污垢，并防止从卡车线转移的土壤到达公共道路的措施。ETHOS 已与开发商启动了关于住房、公园和教育的讨论。霍尔科姆表示，他们尚未就就业问题进行会面。

“我们正在取得一些进展，”霍尔科姆说道。“他们正在与我们合作。获得一份签署的文件需要时间和细节，但如果工作完成了，那就是完成了。”

遗骸（接 A1 页）

根据警方报告，一名自称是殡仪馆负责人的男子最初告诉警员，根据其律师的指示，如果没有搜查令，他不会允许警察再次进入该营业场所。报告称，在警察告知他可以在营业时间内随时进行营业执照检查后，该男子锁上门并离开了现场。

记录显示，报告将该殡仪馆负责人确定为克拉克·摩根（Clark Morgan），他此前持有殡仪馆负责人和救护车实习生执照，但在 2024 年被伊利诺伊州财务与专业监管局吊销。根据该州机构的数据，该企业的注册殡仪馆负责人实际上是他的妻子，乔汉娜·摩根（Johanna Morgan）。

麻烦的过去

在 IDFPR 网站上可查的记录显示，监管机构周三暂时吊销了 Johanna Morgan 的殡仪馆主管和救护车实习生执照。根据 IDFPR 的记录，Johanna Morgan 允许多具尸体“被保存在一个非合规区域，日常环境包括鼠患，导致尸体腐烂并滋生蛆虫”。 方面未回应置评请求。周五上午，在 位于西南郊区的家中，没有人开门。

2021年，由 Clark 拥有的位于芝加哥海茨（Chicago Heights）南郊的一处墓地在州政府官员发现 100 多具尸体存放不当后被关闭。去年，前审计长办公室发言人 Alden Palisack 表示：“在这个墓地里，尸体几乎是在堆积。”自去年州监管机构关闭该设施以来，已有 20 多起针对 Wright's Cemetery 和 的诉讼被提起。

接受《芝加哥论坛报》采访的家庭和企业在得知南芝加哥殡仪馆（South Chicago Chapel）所有者的历史后感到震惊。周四晚些时候，两辆来自印第安纳州 Emmanuel Funeral Home & Cremation Services 的黑色轿车驶向警方封锁线，准备接走一个家庭的亲人。该殡仪馆的牧师 Christopher Jennings 表示，他们整天都在等待电话回电。“我们一直在打电话，一直在打电话，”他说，“没有回应。”

Emmanuel Funeral 在周四之前曾与南芝加哥殡仪馆合作。Jennings 说：“因为我们一直试图与该殡仪馆取得联系，所以没能有机会为该家庭提供我们希望提供的服务。”Jennings 在 Emmanuel Funeral 工作了两年，他表示，确保殡葬护理正确执行至关重要，这既是为了员工的安全，也是为了给家庭提供尊严和尊重。“这很令人心碎，因为我们不知道发生了什么，”Jennings 说。

“我想指出，这里的恶行者是这家殡仪馆，他们所做的事情简直令人毛骨悚然，”普利兹克（Pritzker）说。“我们必须确保让他们承担责任，当然，还要审查所有许可流程。”

破碎的承诺

周四晚上，迪西斯·赖特（Decease Wright）匆匆赶往殡仪馆。她推开人群，在封锁殡仪馆的警方警戒线外跳出了驾驶座。她母亲的葬礼三周前，即7月18日在该建筑内举行。赖特一直耐心地等待主管的更新，对方曾承诺在三周内交付她母亲的唾液样本。但当赖特听到消息，称在该建筑的地下室、储物箱和门后发现了数十具未冷藏的腐烂尸体时，她直接前往了现场。

为了寻找能提供任何信息的答案，赖特在现场徘徊，直到她发现了两名警员。她向他们呼喊，询问他们是否了解受害者的信息。她向一名警员提供了她母亲的名字。该警员引导赖特前往法医办公室。赖特向警员致谢后离开。

在离开现场时，赖特经过了殡仪馆外。内心深处某种感觉告诉她，她的母亲就在里面。第二天，她拨打了 Planet Green Cremations 的电话，她说被告知这家公司与南芝加哥殡仪馆（South Chicago Chapel）有关联。一名她认为是乔安娜·摩根（Johanna Morgan）的女性接了电话。

“我说你好，她说你好。我说，我打电话是想查询我母亲的状态，”赖特告诉《芝加哥论坛报》。“她问我母亲的名字，在我告诉她之后，她就挂断了电话。”

库克县法医办公室主任马克·埃斯特（Mark Erster）周五与基思·杨（Keith Young）的家人及支持者交谈。

州商业记录显示，乔安娜·摩根是该公司的管理人员，该公司在其网站上广告称：“我们意识到丧礼是为了生者，因此我们保持低价，以帮助我们服务的家庭。”

Planet Green Cremations 的一名律师在周五接到请求评论的电话时未立即回应。

“我只是在买单，而她成了受害者，”赖特说。“她不应该被安置在地下室里。”

“这是痛苦”

基思·杨（Keith Young）的葬礼原定于周五举行。然而，他的家人此时却手牵手站在法医办公室外，祈求得到答案。

“这简直无法想象，”牧师维娜·沃恩（Verna Vaughn）周五上午晚些时候在近西区办公室外的台阶上说道，此时南芝加哥殡仪馆的遗体仍在陆续运抵。二十几个基思的亲人围绕在沃恩身边。他的葬礼仪式本该已经开始了。

“这是痛苦，这是伤害，这是一场灾难，”沃恩用低沉的声音说道。在沃恩的话语中，一名家属加入了恳求。

“哈利路亚！”她大声呼喊，双手依然紧紧抓着身旁亲人的手。她哭了。

亲人们原计划在周四下午领取基思的遗体。他的吊唁仪式定于下午 4 点至 6 点在加菲尔德公园（Garfield Park）的一家教堂举行。下午 3:30，基思的姐姐安吉拉·杨（Angela Young）从家人那里听说，她哥哥的遗体尚未抵达教堂。

那天晚上 7:10，由于南芝加哥殡仪馆外的道路依然封闭，警方继续在现场监控，基思的家人回忆说，他们与殡仪馆之间简短地交换了信息。亲人们表示，他们被告知目前发生的事情与该企业无关。他们原以为周五仍然能够安葬基思。

“我以为我们将能够……最后一次向他告别，”51 岁的安吉拉说道。“当我们把他的遗体接回来时，我们可能甚至认不出他是谁。”

安吉拉说，她的哥哥于 7 月 26 日去世，他热爱家人，愿意为任何人做任何事。“我想人们会很喜欢只是坐下来和他聊天，”她说。

在哥哥去世后，安吉拉说她和其他 5 个兄弟姐妹共同出资支付基思的葬礼费用。

“（我们）已经耗尽了所有能拿出的钱，”安吉拉说。“我的意思是，现在所有东西都给完了。我们没有钱去支付任何人来接他的遗体。”

在南芝加哥殡仪馆网站的首页上，该殡仪馆用粗体字吹嘘道：“我们的价格旨在帮助家庭，而非伤害家庭。”

安吉拉说，她和家人正在寻求答案。

“没有人回答问题，”她说。“我们只希望没有其他人再经历这种事，我祈祷这些人能为他们的所作所为承担责任。”

正午刚过，基思的侄女德拉·杨（Dela Young）走进法医办公室，询问是否有人能到外面与在人行道上等待的家人交谈。工作人员告诉这位 28 岁的女性，他们会尝试找人。

半小时后，两名来自县办公室的人员简短地与家属进行了沟通。工作人员表示，调查仍在进行中，遗体仍在运输过程中。他们询问了家属的联系方式，并表示办公室会主动联系。

周五晚些时候，法医办公室宣布，如果家属选择火化，办公室将免费提供火化服务。该办公室还表示，家属将有机会选择自己心仪的殡仪馆来办理最终的安葬手续。

德拉说她的叔叔很幽默，总是能逗人们开心。她说，因为他很擅长建立人际关系。她为叔叔的葬礼制作了讣告。这本小册子里填满了家庭照片。最后一页主要是由他的兄弟姐妹创作的诗歌。

德拉已经好几年没能亲眼见到她的叔叔了。但她在几个月前和他通过电话——他们花时间叙旧。

“这本该是我最后一次能见到他的机会，”德拉说道，声音在颤抖。“但现在，这个机会被夺走了。”

“大师级艺术家”退出青年项目

作者：Cam'von Hardy，PIONEER PRESS

艺术一直贯穿于 Carolyn Elaine 的生活。她曾经营一家提供全方位服务的美甲沙龙，在大学期间还曾从事服装绘画。多年来，她一直领导着橡树公园（Oak Park）的 Off the Wall 艺术就业项目，在该项目中，年轻人成为 Elaine 的学徒；根据她的头衔以及橡树公园与她共事过的人的说法，她是该项目的“大师级艺术家”。

在领导 Off the Wall 项目并帮助 400 多名年轻创意人才 21 年后，64 岁的 在安装完学生的最后一幅壁画后，决定退出该项目。“我的内心告诉我，是时候退后并继续前行了——21 年是一段很长的时间，”她说，“我从这个项目中获益匪浅。当然，我也付出了很多。”

今年夏天，Off the Wall 的艺术家们在橡树公园 North Ave. 6209 号的一栋建筑上创作了一幅马赛克壁画，这里将成为 Beyond Hunger 的所在地，这是一个为面临食物短缺的人群提供救济的项目。这件名为《聚集在一起》（Gathering Together）的马赛克艺术品由五个面板组成，描绘了食物最终到达餐桌的过程。

作为一名教师， 表示她为学生们的工作感到自豪。“他们太出色了，作品非常惊人，”她说。在 8 到 10 周的时间里，19-22 岁的艺术家们与 共事，以提升他们的技能和自信。

自 2005 年项目启动以来， 一直担任这一角色。她教授项目参与者从马赛克应用方法到完成公共艺术壁画的全过程，她说这是他们不太熟悉的领域。但在她向他们展示如何使用这种媒介之后，她会退后一步，让艺术作品自行焕发生机。

“一旦他们学会了如何使用工具，我就退到一边，让他们施展魔法，” 说，“其中很多人用这种新媒介创作出的作品让我大开眼界。”

每年夏天，参加她项目的人们都会进行马赛克安装，这是她最擅长的媒介。20 多年前在葡萄牙的一次学习之后， 对艺术产生了不同的理解。

“我决定回到学校攻读第二个学位，当时我们在那里参观了不同的工作室，因为那时他们正在筹备世界博览会，”她说，“我接触到了马赛克，这是我完全不熟悉的东西，但仅仅通过观看，我就深深地爱上了它。”

当她回到家乡后，她参与了一个马赛克志愿者项目，在那里她对这种媒介的热情得到了升华。 说，项目的指导教师意识到她有天赋，而她自己此前并未察觉。

“在我拿起那些工具并听从她的指导开始操作的那一刻，感觉就非常自然，” 说。

马赛克艺术让 及其作品走遍全球。她目前正在进行一个项目，计划于 11 月在塞拉利昂安装。

现在，她决定在艺术世界中探索新领域，但她仍然希望他人能认可并欣赏她的学生们为让橡树公园变得更加多彩而创作的壁画，以及马赛克这种艺术媒介本身。

“对我来说，这种破碎感本身就是一种美，”她说。“有时我并不那么关注碎片，但碎片之间的裂缝同样美丽。这几乎就像是化无为有。当然，这就是艺术的本质，但对我而言，它代表的是生活。这就像是将人们聚集在一起，将碎片聚集在一起，将社区聚集在一起；无论我面对的是破碎的碎片、破碎的社区还是破碎的人们，其中都蕴含着美。”

委员会搁置旧度假村地块零售计划

作者：Molly Morrow AUMOR DEACON NEWS

关于圣查尔斯（St. Charles）前 Pleasant River 度假村地块的开发计划及其未来的去向仍未决定。周一，市议会的全体委员会（Committee of the Whole）审议了——但最终搁置了——一项关于批准计划开发区（PUD）以及该地块初步开发方案的建议，该方案拟命名为“Pleasant River 购物中心”（The Shops at Pleasant River）。根据市府文件，初步开发计划中包含诸如大通银行（Chase Bank）、Valvoline 快速换油店和 Dutch Bros 咖啡等设施。

该地块位于城市东边缘的东主街（East Main Street）和基茨路（Keats Road）附近，是原市议会财产中剩余的 317 英亩土地。在市议会首日会议的中，度假村中几个较大的区域在火灾中被焚毁，包括度假村的主要设施，但最终成功保住了地块上的 10 层塔楼。其余的度假村建筑最终被拆除，但关于重新开发该地块的讨论已持续多年。

市府的新建筑已迁移，该地块多年来已被重新填充，用于经销商和工业路径。这将是该地块在市内的最后一部分用途。为了开发剩余财产，今年，地块所有者实体、总部位于芝加哥的开发商 Vespin 的 John McCormick 先生向市府提交了一份概念计划，拟议的项目将包括帐篷、油罐、餐厅和绕行道。根据市府资料，该地块目前由企业所有。

尽管议会总体上支持在该地块进行开发，但拟议项目的某些具体细节引起了议会的质疑，例如得来速（drive-thrus）的数量以及将进驻该地的车辆数量。市议会在 12 月讨论了该方案，并在周一的全体委员会会议上再次讨论。Vespin 和 SC Landmark 的方案仅包含部分内容，第 2 部分用于商业目的。

根据周一全体委员会会议议程中的一份备忘录，其中一些地块已经有了规划用途，包括大通银行、一家 Valvoline 换油设施和 State Area 咖啡，所有这些都将设有得来速。另外三个地块拟用于医疗保健，其中一个可能设有得来速。根据市府计划，剩余的 8 个地块尚未确定，其开发将需要未来对初步计划的批准。

根据市社区发展局局长罗素·科尔比（Russell Colby）的说法，该市目前的系统允许银行、零售空间、餐厅、汽车、步行者和加油站等用途，但得来速（drive-thrus）需要经过特殊用途审批程序。开发商和业主提交的申请维持了现有系统，但可能的计划单位开发（PUD）将允许一些额外的用途。据市府称，拟议的重新开发计划包括一项请求，要求在所有地块上提供得来速，并允许诸如大麻店（pot can facility）、汽车经销商和卡车停靠站等可能的用途。

根据科尔比的决定条件，市规划委员会此前尚未投票，但倾向于支持初步计划——例如，如果其中一个地块没有被开发为汽车经销商，则要求其通过特殊用途审批；并且如果得来速数量超过 8 个，则要求更新该项目的交通研究。委员会还指示申请方与相关部门合作，并解决诸如行人步行便捷性等问题。此外，虽然不属于周一拟议批准的部分，但开发商还寻求从市府获得至少 $3500万 的财政援助，以帮助支付“额外”的场地成本。

共同支付和肯定会议。该物业位于 Pleasant Run TIP 区内，据科尔比称，市府预计该场地的状况意味着重新开发需要 TIP 支持。TIP 区是一种经济开发模式，其中物业的价值基本上被冻结，而通过开发物业产生的额外“娱乐”税将进入一个专项基金，用于支付与改善该地区相关的费用。

科尔比表示，该项目的总估计成本在 7000万美元 以上，且根据市议会的计划，该物业预计将产生 1000万美元 的 TP。但科尔比指出，如果市府选择通过禁止在该处设立洗车场来限制土地用途，开发商计划申请额外的 $1500万 TP 资金。根据市府备忘录，其理由是该设计将“排除目前允许的用途，降低项目的价值和经济可行性，并需要额外的援助”。

如果达成 TIP 协议，将建立一种随用随付（pay-as-you-go）的结构，这意味着市府不会资助项目成本或能够资助激励措施的用途。相反，项目产生的新增边际收入将用于开发商的间接运营计划。

在周一的会议上，开发商和业主的代表就拟议计划以及市府向市议会提交的部分补偿问题进行了说明。代表 SC Landmark 的律师彼得·培根（Peter Bacon）表示，请愿人没有要求超出已提交范围的用途，且应符合物业当前分区中的特殊用途。他还指出，该开发项目并不紧邻住宅区，并表示——尽管尚未确定洗车场方案——潜在的洗车场将位于靠近该位置的地块上。他还提到，如果拟议的汽车经销商未能建成，卡车停靠站可能会设在原定经销商的位置。

Vespin's 的所有者兼创始人克里斯托弗·希克斯（Christopher Hicks）指出，他们“意识到这个前度假胜地地块的深厚历史”，并指出了拟议项目能为该场地带来的一些东西——例如 12 点钟率（12 o'clock rates）以及其他零售设施。计划还包括：人行道（及内部路径）、一个公园以及一些聚集空间和会议区域。希克斯表示，他知道人们对“洗车场和其他停靠站有很多顾虑”，但他表示目前他们没有推进卡车停靠站的计划，也没有得到市府的承诺。“我们希望看到你们（de）人们所说的那些使用者。”

除了在周一的全体委员会和市议会会议上讨论的一些研究职位外，议会议员们还概述了他们对拟议项目的一些担忧，同时也表达了对该项目的认可和支持。几位议员对申请书中尝试在项目中创建州级步行可行性的努力表示赞赏，并表示总体支持在该地块进行开发。但其他事项——例如得来速（drive-thrus）的数量以及关于哪些企业将进驻该地点的未知性——引发了对该项目的一些批评。例如，议员 Ron Silkarts 表示他不支持在该物业上设置“无限数量的得来速”，但他表示支持汽车经销商场地。Silkarts 还批评了在城市未对该场地进行特殊用途规定时申请额外 TP 激励资金的要求，而 David Parry 则对此提出了更多疑问。议员 Bryan Wichall 表示他不支持该地块的整体方案，也不支持有限数量的得来速，并表示他希望议会审查这些开发用途。他指出，许多计划旨在使市场多样化，并表示他并不完全反对得来速，但想知道哪些企业将在该场地开设店铺。同样，议员 Mark Foulkes 表示他“可以理解地认为这将是一个”或“看到物业”，但他表示他“强烈反对这种未知，因为目前尚不清楚该市所有地块的用途”。Aurora, Carl Ross 担心该市东侧的开发存在“巨大的”压力，并指出像 Fox Haven's Sign 这样的项目以及该市新的得来速将影响该地区的步行可行性，且需要审查多少个得来速才是可行的。此外，几位议员还将此次开发视为该系统对城市的隐私（privacy）的一部分，包括他们对该场地用途的思考。例如，议员 Vicki Spellman 表示，她希望该系统对城市的隐私是“特殊的”且在城市中具有“强力”影响，而与其他一些议员一样，她反对得来速。而议员 Ryan Stargard 表示他能感受到居民们的想法，即“我们继续在同一条街道上建造同样的东西”，并询问新的入口会有什么不同。议员 James Bacon 同样表示该地区需要重新开发，但认为该市的新用途应该是能够真正为某种特殊目的吸引城市新社区的“用途”。“我们的系统隐私应该是截然不同、独特且与我们的系统有所区别的，”市所有者 Marena 在会议上说道。“这不能给我们带来这些。这只会给我们带来关于我的电话号码和电话账户的东西。”Wichall 最终提出一项动议，建议在满足以下条件的情况下批准该计划：仅批准当前计划中已确定的三家企业，并允许增加两个由城市工作人员投票决定的餐厅得来速。该提案规定，增加一个得来速需要获得特殊用途批准，和 / 或为城市提供洗车场。随后：议员 Steve McCormick 表示，如果开发商需要更多时间考虑该项目是否最终正式生效，他们可以表示希望搁置此事，而项目方最终选择将该提案的合理审议时间延长两周。www.vea@chicagotribune.com

前波塔日市长寻求撤销十年前的新案件

作者：Alexandra Kukutka PUD / Tribune

前波塔日市长詹姆斯·斯奈德（James Snyder）要求联邦上诉法院撤销其案件，该案修改了其 2020 年的财产清单，其中包含一项美国国税局（IRS）的指控。在周一提交给美国税务巡回上诉法院的 1万 页撤诉动议中，斯奈德的律师提出了撤销案件的 3 个理由——地方法院在将其收购纳入税务指控时犯了错误；诉讼时效不应涉及 IRS 指控、税务指控；以及法院在定罪前获得的收入，随后由法院没收，也应导致 指控的定罪被撤销。

斯奈德的律师表示，这份 1万. 页的定罪遗漏“导致了虚假且具有误导性的证据”，并认为斯奈德在证据方面处于某种不利地位而非没收。根据法院记录，法院的最终决定未能提供来自 20 世纪 80 年代的相关材料。斯奈德的律师表示，这份 1万. 页的定罪遗漏“导致了虚假且具有误导性的证据”，并认为斯奈德在证据方面处于某种不利地位而非没收。根据法院记录，法院的最终决定未能提供来自 20 世纪 80 年代的相关材料。

指控包括欺骗 以及两项贿赂罪，一项涉及拖车合同，另一项涉及垃圾车。哈蒙德美国地方法院判定斯奈德在涉及拖车合同的指控中无罪，但在垃圾车指控中两次被定罪。该案件随后提交至美国最高法院，最高法院在 1824, 6 月裁定，斯奈德因垃圾车合同收到的 $10,000 款项是罚金而非贿赂，因为该款项是在合同授予之后而非之前支付的。案件被发回下级法院。

陪审团在 指控中判定斯奈德有罪，该指控涉及其个人业务及其当时的辩护律师，该定罪一直保留。斯奈德原定就涉及垃圾车合同的指控进行第三次审判，但检察官表示他们希望就 的压力对斯奈德进行量刑，并就其贿赂指控进行第三次审判。斯奈德在命令中辩称，。斯奈德的陪审团。美国检察官办公室认为斯奈德的请求“不及时且毫无根据”。

印第安纳州北区美国地方法院首席法官贝丝·布雷迪（Beth Brady）在 3 月 10, 日（他的 40 岁生日）将其 指控的量刑改为 3 年缓刑并向 报到。斯奈德必须支付 $10,000 的限制款项，这也是他目前仍欠 的金额。布雷迪表示，通过每月支付 $375 的分期付款，布雷迪说，应偿还 $10,000 的债务。斯奈德在 3 月 23 日对其缓刑判决提出上诉。

在请求撤诉时，斯奈德的律师指出，政府的自由利益在于斯奈德使用了虚假发票来规避预防措施，律师进一步辩称，审判中提交的证据“不足以证明其有腐败的遗漏以阻碍内部税务法律的执行，根据法院记录”。斯奈德的律师认为，提供庭审证据的 特别探员詹姆斯·汉盖（James Hángay）并非法律专业律师，并表示像斯奈德这样的案件“在今天可能不会被起诉”。

Hángay 证词称，如果美国国税局（IRS）当时采取行动，像 Snyder 这样被认为“没有数字”且以该方式实施的行为将会被起诉。Hángay 表示：“但正是本案中所有其他加重因素导致了这件事在这里发生。”他表示，这些因素包括 Snyder 是一名民选官员，且其计划持续了多年。政府承认，由于一名失败的业主后来被选入公职，因此对其适用了一项税务理论。根据法院文件，委员会的其余决定是异常的。地区法院在干扰美国国税局（IRS）法律的指控中，也未能遵守六年的诉讼时效。 的律师在 Hángay 的证词中辩称，其进入时被告知：“我不是由检察官提交的法律服务中心，且该州——时效从涉嫌犯罪发生时开始，”动议中如此陈述。最后，鉴于最高法院的负责人 James 曾经且可能在法律下有不同的定义，因此法院应当相应地驳回干扰美国国税局（IRS）的指控。

检方辩称，在 2000 年 1 月至 2015 年 4 月之间， 执行了一项旨在妨碍美国国税局（IRS）所得税以及该州商业税和个人税的计划。在 2005 年、2008 年和 2009 年， 的公司 First Financial Trust Mortgage LLC 未向美国国税局（IRS）缴纳员工的工资税和所得税。检方表示， 还未缴纳从员工工资单中扣除的医疗保险和社保份额，且未及时填写 1285 项条款。

检方表示，在委员会 2009 年的一次行动中，美国国税局（IRS）发现该公司使用了大约 $9,000，而 本人在 2010 年和 2009 年通过公司银行账户获益。2005 年 1 月， 与一家名为 OVC 的抵押贷款公司签署了雇佣协议，并在 First Financial Trust Mortgage LLC 办公室开设了一个“brash-bollar”。检方表示，根据协议，OVC 雇佣 提供有效的土地并支付其所有员工的薪酬。

检方表示，2005 年， 开始通过一家名为 DRC 的公司创建“虚假（修订）”单据，向 First Financial Trust Mortgage LLC 开具账单，并进行“震惊”的工作。First 和 DRC 在 2005 年、2010 年和 2012 年之间涉及 $80万,000，且 DRC 获得了一份旨在规避政府该州所得税的合同。在个人税方面， 在 2005 年、2006 年和 2007 年纳税年度申报为 $853.25万,532,500，并在 2010 年、2010 年申报为 $8,000，且在伪证处罚的压力下， 声称其个人税债是不可回收且有限的，实际支付了 $1,000，检方如此表示。

市议员旨在监管而非禁止“抽奖”机

作者：Claire Murphy PIONEER PRESS

数月来，关于埃文斯顿（Evanston）争议性的“抽奖”机泛滥问题，市议员们在应允许这些赌博设备继续存在并接受监管，还是将其完全禁止的问题上产生了分歧。虽然许多邻近市镇已经禁止了这些设备，但 。然而，其他市镇的官员认为，这些所谓的抽奖机是在州赌博法的法律漏洞下运行的。

抽奖机的工作方式是让玩家将现金兑换成礼品卡或积分，随后将其用作游戏入场券，由于不需要直接购买入场券，这规避了伊利诺伊州法律。然而，这些机器通常需要付费，这使得许多官员对其合法性保持怀疑。

在埃文斯顿，许多小企业和加油站业主表示，他们经常依赖这些机器带来的利润。根据之前的报道，利润在租赁公司的业主和负责记账的经营者之间分成。

“人们将其想象成赌博场所或类似的东西，但情况并非如此，”第8区的市议员马特·罗杰斯（Matt Rodgers）表示，他的选区代表了埃文斯顿中经营此类机器的大多数企业。“如果市议会决定否决此项方案，我希望有人能为这些人提供替代方案，因为我们一直在剥夺他们的生计。我们不断地从他们的口袋里掏钱，让他们无法正常经营。”

罗杰斯的评论是指在该市 2024. 年 4 月生效的口味烟草产品禁令。罗杰斯表示，禁止这些产品的决定给该选区的许多小企业主造成了财务损失，并补充说，禁止抽奖机将产生同样的影响。

“即便我们一直在谈论经济发展和采取措施支持我们的企业，我想加油站和便利店并不在其中，”罗杰斯说。

几位目前在市内的黑人经营者参加了 7 月 27 日的议会会议，发表讲话支持监管而非完全禁止，并表示法律也赋予了他们听取最终裁决的权利。

“我认为，对一个没有任何其他实体监管的事物进行许可，可能不是一个

好的做法，”第6区的市议员汤姆·萨夫雷丁（Tom Suffredin）说。

“（但）现在是晚上 10:40，我们基本上掌握着他们企业的未来……所以我恭敬地建议我们不要投票禁止这些设备，而是带着一个经过深思熟虑的议程计划回来，讨论我们将如何允许它们存在。”

萨夫雷丁补充说，如果不行，那么在未来投票决定怎么做（图 6），而不是在此时此刻对这些人这样做。

根据埃文斯顿健康与人类服务总监艾克·奥格贝（Ike Ogbe）的说法，在该市的特别行动区域内，大约有 10 台抽奖亭在活跃使用，分布在“these to four establishments”。

根据该条例，监管措施将要求企业主为经营这些亭子缴纳 $500 的年度许可费，并将同一时间运行的机器数量限制在 10 台以内，且每个场所不得超过 2 台。

奥格贝表示，目前大多数放置这些机器的场所拥有 2 台以上的机器。

第2区的市议员克莱尔·凯利（Clare Kelly）表示，虽然她不想“破坏现有企业及其一直依赖的收入”，但抽奖亭的泛滥仍然是一个严重的担忧。

凯利表示，如果能加入一项条款，允许现有机器在获得“数百万”资金的情况下继续运行，但禁止未来新增，她将最倾向于支持这项监管条例。

“监管（为他们提供了前进的路径，”第9区议员胡安·伦西卡拉（Juan Lencicara）通过 Zoom 发言道。“这次投票是初步引入，下次会议要到将近一个月后才举行，所以如果我们想在监管条例中增加内容，我们是有时间的。”

最终，在讨论了对现行条例的修改后，市议员们一致投票决定推进对这些机器的监管。这些议员——第2区的克里斯汀·哈里斯（Kristin Harris）、第3区的莎伦·艾尔斯（Sharon Iles）和第4区的乔纳森·南内马（Jonathan Nannema）——投票支持该条例，而他们在会议早些时候曾坚持要求直接禁止它们。

关于监管抽奖机的最终决定预计将重新列入下次市议会会议的议程，该会议定于 8 月 24 日举行。内珀维尔（NAPERVILLE）

凯利·布莱克连续第二年未获得 203 委员会任命

作者：Michelle Mullins，为《芝加哥论坛报》撰写

关于学校董事会成员梅丽莎·凯利·布莱克（Melissa Kelley Black）审查内珀维尔第 203 学区（Naperville District 203）账单和索赔的多年争端在上周再次升级，因为她因未能履行每月监督任务而再次被拒绝给予委员会任命。

凯利·布莱克多次批评该学区的流程，即董事会成员在公开会议上提交并投票表决之前，需先与财务人员共同审查每月账单。周一，。年度委员会和学校任命也已公布——发布时间较晚——其中凯利·布莱克被排除在外。

这是凯利·布莱克连续第二个没有获得任何任命的学年，但她仍留在与财务人员审查账单的轮值名单中。委员会由社区成员组成，旨在为学区总监和工作人员提供指导、建议和反馈，但并不具备任何正式的决策权。

凯利·布莱克表示，董事会成员至少在账单和索赔审查流程上存在分歧，该流程要求董事会成员检查支出清单并证明其有效性。“在我没有足够信息的情况下，我不会在上面签名，”凯利·布莱克说道。她批评了会计实操，并表示在请求提供信息时，相关信息一直匮乏且未提供给她。

在周一的董事会会议上，她对尽管自己反对该流程却仍被指派审查账单和索赔表示沮丧，她表示自己感到被针对了。“你们显然有能力做出涉及数百万美元的信托决定，但我却不能走进一所学校进行学校访问，”凯利·布莱克说道。

董事会主席查尔斯·库什（Charles Cush）表示，董事会政策规定，所有董事会成员都被期望参与账单和索赔审查流程，将其作为信托责任的一部分。他表示，董事会已收到其律师事务所和审计公司的建议，认为该流程是稳健的。

库什表示，该流程允许董事会成员审查学区的支票簿并向学区工作人员提问。该政策已得到学校董事会成员的一致同意。“如果在我的工作中，我对同事说：‘你知道吗，我不想做那个。让别人去做吧，’在专业环境下这不会被接受，”库什说道。

在董事会的交锋中，库什表示凯利·布莱克之所以没有获得委员会和学校任命，是因为她逃避了董事会政策要求的职责。“作为一名民选官员，你有权坐在你所在的席位上。你有权对董事会审议的事项进行投票，你可以多次进入社区进行询问，”库什说道。“你没有被分配到那些可选的职责，是因为你拒绝履行必须履行的职责。”

董事会成员公开谴责了凯利·布莱克近两年来拒绝在账单和索赔流程中提供监督的行为。董事会提供了一封来自其律师事务所的信函，信中指出，董事会成员在审查账单时的角色并非确保所有账单都已支付且所有索赔都得到了正确处理，而是确保行政部门遵守这些程序。

根据 Robbins Schwartz 律师事务所 2025 年 2 月 1 日的信函，董事会的角色是治理和监督。学区官员负责预算规划、执行以及每月的财务报告。

“我认为，如果一名个人董事会成员的角色是亲自签署确认学区所有账单和索赔的处理均正确（或缺乏）对董事会治理的基本理解，”信中写道。

“显然，账单和索赔的正确处理是行政部门的责任。”米歇尔·马林斯（Michelle Mullins）是《内珀维尔太阳报》（Naperville Sun）的商业记者。

前帕洛斯海茨市长以勇气与承诺领导城市

作者：Bob Goldsborough 脚注：芝加哥论坛报

Dean Koldenhovnyen 曾任帕洛斯海茨（Palos Heights）的市长，在其他城市领导者试图设置障碍以防止一座清真寺在教堂竞选期间涌入，并提供 $20万,000 以促使其放弃购买该物业的计划时，他表现出了勇气。Koldenhovnyen 与一场解除武装的斗争作斗争，也曾反对该清真寺的计划，并最终退出了 $20万,000 的报价。因在这一问题上的发声，Koldenhovnyen 及其在 1940 年代、F Kennedy 勇气个人资料奖在 2002. 获奖。Koldenhovnyen 还担任了该市规划和分区委员会委员八年。

“Dean 对帕洛斯海茨市非常投入，这座城市对他意义重大，”前帕洛斯海茨市长 Brenda Struck 表示。“他不仅参与市政府，还参与学校及其所在的社区。因此，他一直活跃在社区中。”

他的儿子 Dean Koldenhovnyen II 表示，91, 岁的 Koldenhovnyen 于 7 月 18 日在寓所因痴呆症并发症去世。他自 1971. 起一直是帕洛斯海茨的居民。

Koldenhovnyen 1935, 年出生于南区 Engineering 社区父母家中，在 Englewood 长大直到青少年时期，随后随家人搬到 Alley。1943, 年从帕洛斯海茨的芝加哥基督教高中毕业后，Koldenhovnyen 开始从事砖匠工作。1947, 年，Koldenhovnyen 创办了自己的砖砌公司 Koldenhovnyen Construction School，在一家房子里经营了 43 年，仅在 1949 年短暂中断，当时他将家人迁至亚利桑那州的 scott, stalls。次年他返回帕洛斯海茨，并继续从事砖砌工作直到 1999. 退休。之后，他将其卖回给总裁 David Tin State, Cal State & Rock Co.，又工作了 10 年，直到 80 岁左右彻底退休。

出于对社区事务的兴趣，Koldenhovnyen 于 1959. 年开始在市规划和分区委员会任职。随后，他将自己塑造为一名成熟的议事专家，试图平息在他进入市议会之前就已存在的动荡局面，Koldenhovnyen 在 1967 年竞选并当选为帕洛斯海茨市长。在任期间，他重启了帕洛斯海茨专属的 $5900万美元 Metro 通勤车站计划，该车站位于 1845 街与 Southwest Highways 的交汇处。

帕洛斯海茨市长 Dean Koldenhovnyen, 91, 曾任 1937. 年的市长。 ED WASHBUR- 芝加哥论坛报

“这是一个历史性的时刻，”Koldenhovnyen 在 2000 年 11 月的车站奠基仪式上说道。“这是多年工作的顶峰，也是人们期待已久的结果。”

Koldenhovnyen 还主持了 1994 年 101 英亩的 Mosque Valley Country Club 周年纪念活动（该俱乐部被重新开发为高端住宅区），以及 2000, 年新警察局的竣工。

Koldenhovnyen 市长任期内的标志性事件发生在 2000, 年，当时一个南区 Machine 团体——Al-Salam 清真寺基金会，寻求支付 $2100万美元购买位于帕洛斯海茨 6000 W. 1,750 ft. 的一座教堂，并将其用作清真寺和学校。帕洛斯海茨的居民对社区中可能出现清真寺感到不安，这种抗议促使一些市议会议员寻找方法说服 Al-Salam 官员放弃。一些议员提出了一项计划，由市政府购买该教堂建筑以提供城市娱乐设施，尽管市政府官员在两年前刚以规模不足为由拒绝了购买该建筑的想法。随后，市议会投票决定向 Al-Salam 提供 $20万,000，以使其放弃购买该教堂建筑，从而让市政府能够将其买下。

作为清真寺领导人的坚定支持者，Koldenhovnyen 强烈反对其同事提出的方案，称“提出这样的要求是令人贬低且麻木的”。他还告诉《芝加哥论坛报》，他认为反对穆斯林基金会购买该教堂地块的行为是基于种族和宗教歧视。然而，Koldenhovnyen 的同事们主张，该方案完全是基于城市对娱乐空间的需求。Koldenhovnyen 试图平息事态，力求将市领导层与反对清真寺的立场区分开来。“我正努力让我们远离法庭，”他在 2000, 告诉《芝加哥论坛报》。“我试图对伊斯兰教徒公平。这是一桩房地产交易，我们不应干涉。”2000 年 7 月，Koldenhovnyen 决定否决议员们提出的 $20万,000 方案，称“政府不应参与此次购买”。他补充说，如果清真寺成员中有人想要退出购买该建筑的合同，“那是他们的自由”，但他希望清真寺能继续进行购买。Al-Salam 最终决定不搬迁至 Palos Heights，该建筑如今由另一座教堂占用。2000 年，Al-Salam 与 Palos Heights 以及 Koldenhovnyen 在联邦法院对簿公堂，塑造了关于穆斯林宗教自由权的判例。然而，联邦陪审团在 2000 年裁定该团体的权利未受侵害。2002, 3 月，波士顿的肯尼迪图书馆基金会将 Koldenhovnyen 命名为约翰·F·肯尼迪勇气奖（John F Kennedy Profile in Courage Award）获得者，以表彰其政治勇气，称其“勇敢地对抗那些反对 Al-Salam 将教堂改为清真寺的人”。“这太超现实了。能获得这样的荣誉，我感到受宠若惊，”Koldenhovnyen 在 2002. 告诉《芝加哥论坛报》。Koldenhovnyen 在 2001 年竞选连任但失败了。。他的儿子说，在工作和社区参与之余，Koldenhovnyen 喜欢收藏，逛车库拍卖会，并在每天去星巴克的途中与他人交流。他的儿子说：“他是个热爱社交的人。”除了儿子，Koldenhovnyen 留下了结婚 75 年的妻子 Ruth，两个女儿 Linda Riley 和 Sharon Vallas，九个孙辈，15 个曾孙辈，以及一个妹妹 Elaine Reynolds。葬礼仪式已经举行。Bob Goldsborough 是一名自由撰稿记者。

我们对死亡的集体敬畏之心去哪了？

对于生者而言，很少有事情能像在盛夏时节面对企业冠军那样令人震惊。但这显然就是发生在市东南区一家殡仪馆内部的情况：在接到邻居关于强烈异味的投诉后，人们在东95街2000街区的南芝加哥殡仪馆（South Chicago Chapel）内发现了50多具人类尸体。这家特定的殡仪馆曾将自己宣传为“以同情、尊严和关怀引导家庭度过生命中最艰难时刻的家园”。调查才刚刚开始，但看来那些承诺是空洞的。至少可以说：我们向那些遭受了难以言表之痛的芝加哥 bereaved 家庭表示慰问。

出于许多正当理由，殡仪馆受到州政府的监管，其中一个原因是其客户——芝加哥逝者的家属——并不像生产者那样了解其亲人的遗体随后会发生什么。人们向殡仪馆主管支付费用——通常是承受了相当大的困难，尤其是在低收入群体中——然后信任对方会尊重他们的意愿并据此处理后续事宜。家庭希望他们的挚爱能够安息。这是对该信任的第一波考验。

2025年，调查人员在一家名为“回归自然”（Return to Nature）的科罗拉多州殡仪馆内发现了125具尸体。据称，该馆并未将尸体送往向家属承诺的火葬场，而是将钱私吞，并似乎向这些家庭发送了由混凝土制成的骨灰。无论远近，此类案例屡见不鲜。

在周四芝加哥发生的这件事中，殡仪馆总裁克拉克·S·摩根（Clark S. Morgan）似乎曾收到过一份个人通知，伊利诺伊州金融与专业监管局曾因其在州内其他地方使用过期的殡仪馆主管执照以及未指明的“不专业行为”，在2024年对其处以$1万,000的罚款。州政府和市长办公室的蒙塔纳（Montana）表示，克拉克·摩根和约翰逊·摩根（Johnson Morgan）还曾在芝加哥高地（Chicago Heights）郊区经营过一家类似的机构。她说，该设施在发现遗体存储不当以及数百份未交给家属的火化遗骸后，于去年失去了执照。如果属实，摩根家族似乎是惯犯。这引发了人们的质疑：为什么他们被允许在东南区继续经营。

门多萨（Mendoza）将周四在南芝加哥殡仪馆的发现称为“令人心碎且令人厌恶的”。这两点她都说对了。当然，这起事件需要进行彻底调查，而调查的重点之一应该是：摩根是如何被允许重新开业的，且州政府的监管似乎如此匮乏，以至于调查人员是在邻居提醒后才做出这一发现。他们在那里发现的情况表明，至少应该进行更频繁的检查。

这家殡仪馆的问题紧随马歇尔项目（Marshall Project）、WREF和《芝加哥太阳报》对亚舍治疗中心（Asher Treatment Center）状况的联合调查之后。那篇关于这家自称是更好类型的监狱、更专注于治疗患有心理健康问题囚犯的报道得出结论，该中心的条件极其糟糕，导致囚犯在自己身上纵火。报告还指称，亚舍治疗中心的基础承诺——为心理困扰者提供治疗——在很大程度上未能兑现。

阅读那份报告，你会不禁质疑伊利诺伊州惩教局的督察员们当时在何处，就像你会质疑在殡仪馆尸体堆积如山时，伊利诺伊州财务与专业监管局（DFPR）是否在场，或者是否缺席一样。这些监管机构是至关重要的安全网。首先，DFPR 的使命宣言是“保护伊利诺伊州居民”，即便南芝加哥殡仪馆的事件尚未得到充分调查，但现在就说那些逝者家属似乎没有得到保护，似乎并不为早。事实上，这次事件给许多家庭带来了创伤，而不仅仅是那些与殡仪馆内遗体相关的人。在州内这家以及其他伊利诺伊州殡仪馆的许多其他人们，不可避免地开始怀疑他们的遗愿是否按照指示执行了。正如我们上面所提到的，这很难得知。殡仪馆的一个公理是，即便它们看起来是在照顾死者，但实际上是在照顾生者。但其次，从长期来看：根据个人经验，我们知道这个州的许多殡仪馆——那些将此视为神圣使命并单纯地将此职业视为对该州贡献的殡葬主管，正如我们知道 DFPR 的许多工作人员也是如此。但这里发生了一次史诗级的失败，以及它在芝加哥人生命中最脆弱的时刻所产生的影响，对此却有人在幸灾乐祸。州长应采取措施确保此类事件不再发生，无论是在伊利诺伊州的何处。我们在这里最后一点要说明的是。我们在政治和其他圈子中注意到，人们对逝者的尊重日益匮乏，无法将逝者的公众身份与死者本身，或与逝者家属——那些将一个人视为一个完整的人而非一个持有观点的公众人物而爱的人——区分开来。在整个人类历史上，围绕生命终结的仪式一直延续至今，因为即便在几乎没有其他共同点的社会中，人们也明白，尊严地死去不仅是我们所有人都应得的，而且是帮助生者康复的关键部分。而在南芝加哥殡仪馆，这一切并未发生，那里的恐怖景象应当激励我们所有人。

市长无法找到愿意代表城市追讨债务的人

市长布兰登·约翰逊（Brandon Johnson）的政府已告知相关人员，拟议中出售欠家庭的未偿债务的行为是不公平的，因此这项本应在年度预算中贡献 9000万美元 的计划，目前并未获得银行或其他金融服务公司的兴趣。这次债务出售的明显失败似乎将在本年度预算中留下一个缺口，需要予以解决，尽管该缺口的具体规模尚未确定。我们当然同意议会议员的观点，即为什么市长及其政府在决定 re732 直至 1974. 之前，将债务出售列入其他增加收入的措施之中。

从一开始，约翰逊就无法获得一项计划，旨在出售欠城市的部分 80 亿美元 billion 未付和余额费用，其中一些过于紧迫，还包括摄像头违章罚单和其他被视为“难以消化”且“破产”的义务。该页面拒绝了他的论点，其中提到：“我认为那些偿还债务的人不应该让那些根本不还债的人通过。”

布兰登·约翰逊市长 7月 15 日在芝加哥市政厅的一次市议会会议前会见民众。JOHAN CASSELL / A / CHICAGO TRIBUNE 债务法的预算成为法律。随后，他在第一季度在各个选区进行了巡访，期间他及其财务团队警告称，债务出售以及议会多数派采取的其他新收入增加方案不太可能超过预期，且预算将在年中出现短缺。那么，城市无法找到任何人有兴趣尝试追讨这笔债务，是否还令人感到惊讶？至少考虑到约翰逊团队处理该流程的方式以及市长的传达信息。

根据市审计长迈克尔·博莱基（Michael Boleky）最近提交给议会的一份备忘录，潜在买家给出不参与公共事务的原因包括“潜在买家的声誉担忧”以及“荣誉政策或立法决定”。是的，当你有一个愿意破坏城市计划的市长时，买家肯定会对他们的声誉产生“担忧”。

约翰逊在七月获得了一种初步的胜利，这意味着他从一开始就说过债务出售是个坏主意。随后，该团队表示：“我不希望在这个问题上是对的，”他说道。

如果约翰逊在之前的预算中没有过度依赖杂费和罚款，这件事会更容易被接受。根据《芝加哥太阳报》的数据，截至 2007, 12月，在约翰逊任职期间，不到两年的时间里就增加了约 10 亿美元 billion 的等值债务。

无论是在国家还是地方层面，行政部门的工作就是执行和实施立法部门的法律。我们不知道这项债务追讨计划在一个致力于执行所有法律（即使是不受欢迎的法律）的行政委员会下执行起来会有多困难。但我们知道，在目前的市政厅（City Hall）环境下，它毫无机会。

纳税人最终可能在资助枪支暴力。芝加哥正试图阻止这种情况

芝加哥论坛报特稿

这个国家枪支的 No.1 购买者是美国人民。与此同时，全国各地的城市和州花费超过 30 亿美元 billion 为执法部门购买枪支。这往往意味着，纳税人的资金正在资助那些困扰全国邻里关系和社区的枪支暴力。公共资金应当促进公共安全，而不是破坏它。就此打住。

作为美国最大的机构枪支购买者，政府在塑造市场方面拥有巨大的权力。当政府未能使其采购实践与承诺保持一致时，普通纳税人最终就在资助枪支暴力。由我领导的组织“布雷迪反对枪支暴力联合会”（Brady United Against Gun Violence）发布的一份 2023 年报告显示，数百万纳税人的资金流向了数百家违反联邦枪支法规并资助犯罪与暴力的企业。这意味着，执法机构和政府经常从一批违反联邦法律且令人震惊的经销商处购买枪支，从而允许那些他们最初试图将其清除出街道的枪支走私者获利。

枪支安全在防止枪支进入非法市场方面起着至关重要的作用。负责任的经销商实践是抵御枪支走私、压力购买（stress purchases）和其他非法销售的第一道防线。在市长布兰登·约翰逊（Brandon Johnson）的领导下，芝加哥正在利用

芝加哥市正采取措施，确保公共资金支持负责任的商业实践，同时鼓励整个枪支行业提高标准，而不是允许不负责任的销售商获得双重利润——首先是通过销售被转用于犯罪和暴力的枪支获利，然后是从受到该暴力伤害的社区获得纳税人资助的合同。

这一承诺体现在约翰逊签署的一项行政命令中，该命令指示采购服务部在咨询芝加哥警察局、公共安全管理局办公室和法律部后，在 90 天内制定增强的枪支相关采购标准。这些标准将要求寻求与市政府开展业务的潜在供应商披露有关遵守枪支法律、负责任商业实践、枪支相关违规行为、纠正措施以及评估其在防止枪支非法转移和促进公共安全方面承诺的其他必要信息。

根据采购标准，芝加哥官员在提供或续签合同时，还将能够考虑供应商在防止枪支走私方面所做的努力、相关的员工培训计划、旨在防止枪支和弹药被盗的安全措施、在涉及犯罪所用枪支的执法调查中的配合情况以及其他公共安全实践。这些都是将枪支远离儿童、走私者、家庭虐待者和其他人的实践。

芝加哥加入了包括科罗拉多州、新泽西州、洛杉矶、旧金山和圣迭戈在内的越来越多城市和州，采用了布雷迪（Brady）的负责任采购标准模型。这些标准是布雷迪长期致力于挽救生命并要求枪支行业承担法律责任的一部分。当政府利用其购买力要求枪支经销商负责时，社区会更安全。其他州、市和县应当采用这一方案，使其采购实践与其对社区安全的承诺保持一致。

芝加哥近期在减少暴力方面取得的进展表明，一种以预防、干预、问责和负责任治理为基础的综合方法是有效的。通过对社区暴力干预、青年就业、受害者服务、健康行为以及协调一致的暴力削减策略进行持续投资，该市在 2025. 年记录了近 60 年来最低的谋杀人数。改变采购实践为他们的工具箱增加了另一种工具。其他城市和州应当予以关注。克里斯·布朗（Kris Brown）是“布雷迪反对枪支暴力联合会”（Brady United Against Gun Violence）的主席。

文科传统不必消亡，只需演变

《芝加哥论坛报》特稿

许多私立文科大学正陷入死亡危机，但在我们这个动荡的世界中，人文教育比以往任何时候都更加重要。或许有办法挽救这一传统，即便无法挽救所有最初那些砖瓦结构的校园。在广受欢迎的美国《北与西》（North & West）声誉排名中，大约有 200 所“全国性文科大学”，此外还有数百所“区域性学院”，它们同样提供人文、社会和自然科学等教育。根据最佳法律（best-selling law）的数据，自 2010 年以来，约有 10万 所美国授予学位的学院已经关闭或合并。

近几十年来，入学情况发生了剧烈变化。高中毕业的学生人数在减少，且前往传统四年制大学就读的毕业生人数不足 100 人。在高等教育产业中，令人恐惧的“入学悬崖”跌落已经开始。如果没有足够的入学人数以及随之而来的学生学费，将有更多学院关闭。

近几十年来，文科大学在财务模式上分成了“学费驱动型”和“捐赠驱动型”。也就是说，捐赠基金规模适中的学院必须主要依靠学生学费来维持运营。相比之下，那些通过富裕校友积累了巨额捐赠基金的学院，可以依靠这些资产的收益来资助大部分学院运营；学费的重要性较低，并且可以为成绩优异的潜在学生予以免除。

如今，一所学院的成功几乎完全取决于资金。精英常春藤联盟及类似知名学院往往拥有巨额捐赠基金，能够招揽最优秀的学生和教师。每名学生捐赠基金约为 $100万的私立学院，例如爱荷华州的 Grumell 和肯塔基州的 Beres，在未来也将表现出色。Bores 为每名学生每年提供 $1.4万,000 以上的支持，每名学生的学费成本为 $3。

另一方面，每名学生捐赠基金低于 $100,000 的私立学院（绝大多数学院均属此类）则陷入了困境。对于一所招收 1,000 名学生的学院来说，1亿美元 的捐赠基金听起来像是一笔巨款，但分摊到每名学生身上，年收入仅约为 $5,000。然而，该学院需要比这个数字高出一个数量级的每生收入才能维持运转。

目前的模式对其中许多学院来说根本行不通，原因在于整体学生池规模缩小，且面临来自那些能够免除学费、资金雄厚的富裕学院的激烈竞争，加上校园往往位于远离任何中心地带的小镇，位置不便。如今，学生和家庭追求的是质量、便利，低自付成本以及毕业后能立即找到工作。许多学院无法提供所有这些条件，除非依靠巨额学生贷款带来的收入，而这些贷款对许多学生和家长来说已然变得令人厌恶。

但这并不意味着文科传统必须随“老常春藤”一起消亡。19 世纪学院的根本目的并非为年轻人提供四年以上的住宿。其目的是启迪未来的领导者，而校园曾是实现这一目标的唯一途径。

以下提出的模型可能不是最终答案，但它体现了必要的思考方向。对于拥有 1亿美元 捐赠基金的学院，应当利用这些捐赠基金，而不是在试图阻止机构死亡螺旋的过程中将其耗尽。既然学生无法以足够的人数来到校园，那么物理校园、戏剧和娱乐设施。如果学生不来你的校园，那就走向他们。利用捐赠收益来维持一支优秀的教师队伍，提供分散式的在线文科教育。与公共图书馆合作，创建低成本的本地

“古藤文理分院”。除了向 16 到 40 岁不同年龄段的学生提供在线课程外，教师成员还可以不时前往分院所在地主持面对面讨论。可以授予微学分、认证甚至学位。对于许多学院来说，旧模式对任何人都没有效果。现在必须制定能够明智投资剩余捐赠基金的方法。重新致力于此的学院可以向更广泛的公众提供优质、便捷、低成本的文理教育，从而探讨那些比以往任何时候都更重要的大问题，如“我是谁”以及“我应该如何引导我的生活？”Jim Nowlan，曾在伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校和芝加哥分校、诺克斯学院、世界银行学院以及上海的宾夕法尼亚大学任教。他的博士论文关于“高等教育政治学”，于 1973 年由伊利诺伊大学出版社出版。 --- 芝加哥论坛报 / B 版 / 2026 年 8 月 9 日，星期日 / 3 观点

唐纳德·特朗普的设计能力与设计令人惊讶

爱德华·基根（Edward Keegan）

2016年6月，当一名纽约资深开发商在沿芝加哥河的开放区域塔楼16层添加了五个20英尺高的屋顶厨房，并将自己的名字冠名其上时，整个城市签署了一份期刊。这一时刻以及随后的掠夺行为在现在看来相当违背常理。对设计的某种解读——无论如何，这可以说是带有唐纳德·特朗普名字的最具建筑特色的建筑——仅仅是他正在华盛顿特区及其他地区更大规模开展行动的序曲。

有些人每天都在惊叹，每年都有新的设计流程由道路工会主席主导，而且人们永远无法得知每个项目的完整名称和预算。但这些很少有必要，且每一个都反映了特朗普永无止境的自我关注能力。首先是对于专业知识的绝对漠视，这在几乎每一个例子中都得到了证实。通常有许多制衡机制来监督任何建筑流程，尤其是最受欢迎的公共空间。但特朗普现在正生活在房地产开发商的幻想中——似乎不需要法律、没有处罚、无需审查、没有预算，也不需要外部专业知识。他正心安理得地随兴而为。而接下来的部分将以10亿计的成本来衡量。这是对主要由内部（其自身）主导的流程进行根本性拆除的一部分。当某些项目不再经过审查时，他们由此铺就了由增长可扩展人员组成的团队，包括美国美术委员会（U.S. Commissioners of Fine Arts）和国家首都规划委员会（National Capital Planning Commission）的成员。

特朗普的“记者”建筑和设计被高度评价——

2026年9月3日，人们在芝加哥河前拍照，背景是特朗普大厦。TERENCE ANTONI ANNEI / CWILKUS TRIBUNE。正如当你意识到有多少带有他名字的建筑如此持久且少之又少时所意识到的那样。事实上，他的芝加哥塔楼质量如此之高，尽管在开发过程中，他仅在需要一名受人尊敬的芝加哥建筑师以更容易获得批准时，才选择了 Harkness, Georgia & Merrill 的当地办公室。即便如此，当他试图取消顶部的尖顶以削减成本时，市政府不得不强迫他保留。

虽然在拆除的东翼原址上正在建设的新气球建筑吸引了最多关注，但过去一年里，特朗普的重点集中在白宫广阔的82英亩土地上。这始于一些标志以及在白宫主楼与西翼之间的柱廊沿线精心策划的“区域画廊”。随后，白宫花园的铺设使花园变成了一个笑话。同样，白宫南侧中心地带的改造将其变成了一个辅助性的历史景观。据报道，最新的元素被拆除是因为特朗普不喜欢州当地平台在倾斜景观中的呈现方式。这是通过多方利益相关者的仔细规划和审查本可以避免的代价。由于这些似乎都没有执行，昂贵的变更直接源于特朗普的习惯以及对流程和专业知识的缺乏尊重。

就在财政部南侧，新白宫访客筛选中心的设计扩展了白宫附近新出现的、构思拙劣的古典元素范围。而计划在白宫北侧的 Lollacote 公园周围建设的永久居住区，将允许这个经常成为公众示威场所并能引起总统注意的公共空间被迅速且轻易地关闭。凯旋门在数千年的城市景观中一直是一个标准符号。华盛顿的

缺乏此类结构的经验是一次关于宪法裁量权的教训——这些“基督”尚未被用于可见之目的。但特朗普不知为何觉得在他在任期间达到 200 年是一个伟大的胜利。与其采用一个更民主的系统，这并不理想。而且它需要规模宏大——因为规范将成为衡量标准，除了像那样观察外，它将被显著地展示在众多访客令人惊恐且混乱的区域。这座 200 英尺高的结构将是“少数城市办公室”的 37 个装置之一，根据国家公园管理局最近的一项第 100 节审查，其中一个位于国家首都。公园管理局的合理判定是基于这样一个事实，即拟建的拱门是供所有人使用的，这既基于历史程序，也基于其位于华盛顿低洼地带的位置，而这些位置在法律和习俗的抽象定义中已得到确认——指向国会大厦和费城的维度。而那项识别出该拱门不利影响的审查，其结论则在政府的掌控之中。现在，国家历史保护法第 10 节的规则将限制或消除公众、州和部落官员就历史财产发表评论和咨询的机会，允许政治活动取代专业投入以及与他们自身地下遗址的更广泛接触。这影响的不止是特朗普的视角，它将使全国范围内的历史保护变得更加困难。“你看到了美国的‘当代’习惯和共产主义，”在新的奥巴马总统和国务卿顶部的文字中这样写道。但我认为巴拉克·奥巴马总统的意思并不是说，未来的总统应该像特朗普那样，被强迫将他构思拙劣的设计强加给美国。奥巴马文字的其余部分是我们共同公共体验和未来的一个新国际元素。而在特朗普的设计方案中没有“我们”。“我们”意味着它更具理智，并保护我们所有人的公共健康、安全和福祉——一个将每一个前瞻性建筑实践与公众联系在一起的结构。但公众并不是一种新科学，也不是一个职业生涯主要在搭建围栏且异常不受干扰的人所设计的拙劣方案，公众也不是一个关于世界的全新想法。那些正在开发的设计表明，他在华盛顿缺乏设计才华的问题无法通过采用古典缺口来掩盖。而芝加哥特朗普大厦外墙上的那些字母，十多年来一直修补着这种精美艺术，但对于审美变迁而言，它们仅仅是一个脚注。但特朗普继续在国家首都各处地展示。爱德华·基根（Edward Keegan）负责撰写、广播并教授白玫瑰工业。基根的建筑专栏由前《论坛报》评论员迈克·库温（Mike Kewin）组成的专家组支持，并由营利性的澳大利亚 Funding Partners 管理。《论坛报》对委派和内容保持编辑控制权。

民众之声 CRGA 可根据需求调整 全国范围内的能源价格正在上涨，因为需求在增加，而供应不足以跟上步伐。2026 年的全面限制，特别是 PDR 地区（包括芝加哥地区）的一些限制，是因为 PDR 作为美国最大的区域电网运营商，未能针对数据内容和其他大型能源用户制定计划。最近的一篇社论正确地指出了对更多能源的需求，且个人信息最终在伊利诺伊州的电力市场中波动（链能法：8月6日）。这就是为什么在全国成本上涨的情况下，伊利诺伊州和市场合并以生产更同质的能源（针对 2026 年）。普里查德和伊利诺伊州立法者提出了《芝加哥与可靠黄金可负担性（CRGA）法案》，以使更多能源供应符合电网资格。CRGA 是到 2016 年将电池存储引入电网的 3 份文件之一，包括该州计划退役的大约 3 份全州煤电发电文件，而现在基础电池已帮助德克萨斯州满足能源需求和数据中心增长。伊利诺伊州电力局将在一个月内审视能源存储采购。CRGA 还包括一项综合资源计划，该计划也在 2026 年 11 月。鉴于 2026 年全职全州煤电发电集的目的，它能够弥补该州的缺口，3-2f 将允许该州延长《气候与公平生活法案》的燃料电厂退役时间表，正如社论所承认的，“资源回归”。此外，上个月，伊利诺伊州商业委员会批准了该州首个虚拟电厂（VPP）计划，旨在为全州提供能源，并降低明年夏天的所有客户的电力成本。通过专注于成本最低、速度最快的数字化侧解决方案，以及最新的能源存储、VPP 和能源效率，伊利诺伊州的行动在 PDR 的第一年里领先于其他州。随着 PDR 解决其互连队列的挑战和市场改革，以及承认高容量价格尚未达到、消除新电线的现状，伊利诺伊州还可以做更多工作。低现代化可以确保进入该州的数据中心带来投资和清洁能源供应，以保护现有客户。投资范围可以从向升级家庭先进能源技术的计划注入更多资金，到增加传输和清洁发电。CRGA 为伊利诺伊州提供了在设施与可靠性之间无需权衡即可满足增长需求的工具。为了应对成本上涨而延长昂贵的燃料燃料发电寿命，是在一个让伊利诺伊州客户承担比其他新信息更多成本的时代中进行的市场改革。Auravill Meddick, Pat & Ridge

停止这一进程

关于呼吁通过《气候与公平法案》、要求 2026 年全州范围内的燃煤计划在 2030 年截止日期前部分运行的社论，我认为这并非 5万% 的不负责任建议。如果有人还没有意识到，气候变化已经到来，而且只会变得更糟。我们最好的希望是迅速向太阳能、风能和电池储能转型，以减轻人们以及其他依赖于此的误导者的最糟糕情况。严重影响的案例范围如此之广，以至于很难想象刻意围绕其开展业务。可再生能源能带来一些更便宜的电力以及更清洁、更健康的环境。作为一个在德克萨斯州墨西哥湾沿岸长大的人，我看到了石油和天然气工业周围的污染和危险条件，而且遗憾的是，还看到了这些公司制造的贪婪和误导信息。幸运的是，我们现在有了更清洁、更绿色、更安全的发电方式。伊利诺伊州的可再生能源比例已高达 60%。如果偏离这条路径，将是极大的 50% 损失。—— 坎迪斯·科尔比（Candace Colby），伊利诺伊州弗里波特

社区太阳能的益处

许多人认为太阳能仅适用于能够负担安装面板的房主。极端的社区太阳能项目表明这根本不是事实。十年前，当伊利诺伊州出台政策以扩大可再生能源的获取渠道时，政府仅仅是在构建一个发电机——这是因为无论是城市数量、邮政编码还是你的项目，都不会决定你是否能获得当地太阳能和能源的益处。如今，特伦斯（Terence）社区太阳能计划服务于数百个家庭和近 60 个芝加哥地区。许多订阅者是年收入低于 $50,000 的女性，以及将收入的大部分用于支付能源账单的家庭，她们参与分享通过电力赚取的资金，或帮助某些人获得其开支的资金，包括购买公寓的额外成本以及在日益炎热的夏天期间的费用。

这些益处远远超出了个人订阅者。社区太阳能项目创造了当地就业机会，产生了税收，支持了劳动力发展，并为农业企业创造了新机会，同时为家庭提供可负担的能源选择。通过在靠近使用地的地方发电，社区太阳能加强了发展并有助于减轻电网的压力。随着电池储能的扩大，虚拟电厂（VPPs）——即当地太阳能和储能设备的网络——可以在需求最高时提供本地发电的电力，从而提高可靠性并帮助控制所有客户的复杂成本。

当各州面对不断增长的电力需求和日益增加的关于可负担性的经济担忧时，社区太阳能提供了一种切实可行的方式来扩大能源选择，同时为家庭和当地社区带来益处。得益于 JB 普里查德（JB Pritchard）州长和立法者的领导，我们在伊利诺伊州所拥有的成果不能完美地复制到其他州。好消息是，路径追随者不必从零开始。得益于诸如新全州电力分布式能源资源政策（Harkness）、一个私人全转工作项目以及其他将提高能源可负担性、韧性和可靠性的政策。这些政策的成功不仅是用金钱来衡量的，特别是对于那些因为支付问题而无法负担治理、药物、家庭开支和室内冷却的家庭而言。社区太阳能证明了清洁能源和降低能源账单不必成为相互竞争的优先事项。通过正确的政策，房主和非占用车辆可以获得太阳能可负担、可靠能源系统的益处。—— 约翰·迪肯斯（John Dickens），Yon Solar 竞选管理总监

Rebuild Illinois 取得了哪些成就 当许多人想到工业时，他们脑海中浮现的是建筑工地：能量水平、重型设备以及在道路或桥梁上工作的工人。这些仅仅是故事的一部分。要了解基础设施投资的真实价值，我们需要将目光投向施工区域之外。一项针对州资本计划 Rebuild Illinois 的新分析显示了当我们这样做时能发现什么。非党派的伊利诺伊经济政策研究所估计 1000 在国家公园管理局中，最近一次在 2020 和 2025. 之间进行的。这项由美国工程委员会委托的研究发现，伊利诺伊州投入的资金产生了大约 10.7% 的收入和活动恢复——这几乎是 2000年代 倍的回报，且在芝加哥地区每 1 美元收入约产生 82。这些益处远远超出了工程和建筑领域。Rebuild Illinois 每年创造或保留了约 1.92万,200 个工作岗位。其中约 2.16万,600 个与建筑直接相关，另有近 1.7万,000 个额外岗位通过供应链采购和项目工人的消费在建筑业之外得到支撑。地方政府同样受益。Rebuild Illinois 增加了分配给各县的燃油税，涵盖了公共和私人住宅。2026 年全州全职石油账单在当地基础设施的入境资金方面，是推动那些原本可能被延迟或取消的项目向前推进的沟通举措。该计划产生的更广泛经济活动估计产生了 1.69亿美元 的额外地方税收和 $1200万 的建筑资金，在芝加哥地区每年约产生 1.02亿美元。对于面临成本上升和资源有限的郊区市镇来说，这些益处至关重要。加强地方税基是 2026 年在道路和桥梁进一步恶化——且在维修变得更具破坏性且更昂贵之前——进行修复的一个重要因素。Rebuild Illinois 已帮助修复了 2.1万,000 多英里的道路，创意提高或更换了 800 多座桥梁，并完成了近 1,200-mile 改进。然而，巨大的需求依然存在。Rebuild Illinois 是对数十年延迟维护的一次直接支付，而非最终金额。Rebuild Illinois 已经证明，不投资并不能省钱。它只是将更高的成本以及更严重的安全和可靠性问题转移到了未来。研究结果表明了为什么伊利诺伊州应该在估计 1,000 英里的道路和 700 个回报上突破基础设施，其衡量标准不仅在于更平整的道路和更坚固的桥梁，还在于整个经济领域的就业机会以及更强大的地方历史。这些发现依然存在于进步和更具竞争力的建筑之中。—— Kevin Arl，伊利诺伊州美国工程公司委员会主席。欲查看在线独家信件，请访问 www.chicagotribune.com / letters。发送您的信件 adminisers, shift works 或更少，在 Intercept Image (rbinn.com, 包含您的全名，附加项) 和电话号码。--- 4 芝加哥论坛报 / B 版 / Sunday, August 8, 2026 VINTAGE CHICAGO TRIBUNE 自 1847 年起揭秘历史

MOMENT'S MADNE

GREENDEEP 1876年芝加哥学校关于宗教的争议演变为一场致命悲剧

作者：Robert Lowryd，为《芝加哥论坛报》撰写

1876年，一名市政府官员在北区的一条街道上开枪打死了一名学校校长，《论坛报》的标题将其称为“A Moment's Madame”。随着亚历山大·沙利文（Alexander Sullivan）因弗朗西斯·汉福德（Francis Hanford）之死而被起诉谋杀，此案成为了那个时代讨论度最高的刑事案件之一，引发了关于枪支、正义和宗教的争论。

这场发生在150年前的戏剧性事件始于1876年8月7, 1876,日下午的一次芝加哥市议会会议，当时一个委员会反对教育委员会的五名提名人选。在议会投票之前，约翰·M·范·多德尔（John M. Van Dodel，一名著名建筑师）读到了两封匿名信，信中声称三名提名人正密谋“重新定义学校”，而领导者是当时一名低调的女记者玛格丽特·布坎南·沙利文（Margaret Buchanan Sullivan）。

玛格丽特·布坎南在幼年时从爱尔兰移民，在两人都住在底特律时结识了爱尔兰移民之子、英俊的亚历山大·沙利文。1874, 他们在芝加哥结婚，两人最初都为报纸撰稿，随后亚历山大被任命为公共工程委员会秘书。一名《华盛顿邮报》的作者观察到，玛格丽特是“最迷人的记者”，并指出她拥有“高耸的知识分子额头，蓝色的眼睛，以及一种她任由其披在肩上的公众魅力”。

多年来，天主教徒一直抱怨芝加哥的市立学校在向儿童朗读《钦定版圣经》，他们认为这是一种新教做法。1875年9月28, 1875, 教育委员会投票决定从课程中“删除所有关于圣读圣经和主祷文的引用”。

现在，天主教徒沙利文夫人被指控是该举措的幕后主使，此外还面临其他指控。“所有与委员会立法相关的阴谋的煽动者和总工程师就是沙利文夫人，”其中一封匿名信写道，“……排除圣经就是这类工作的一个例子。”

沙利文夫妇均表示信中的陈述并非事实。但亚历山大·沙利文对其中一项指控感到尤为愤怒，该指控称玛格丽特利用她与哈维·卡兰（Harvey Carran，1875年至1875, 任市长）的“影响力”来促使丈夫获得该职位。亚历山大后来作证说，他显然认为“影响力”是一个严重的指控，将其视为“一个极其卑劣的暗示”。

在面对沙利文的质问时，范·多德尔为朗读信件辩护，但同时也揭露了其中一封信的作者：北区高中（North Division High School）46岁的校长弗朗西斯·汉福德。

那天晚上，沙利文夫妇乘马车前往汉福德位于橡树街247号（现为西橡树街120号）的住所。汉福德当时在屋外与《芝加哥晚邮报》的业务经理大卫·S·麦克马伦（David S. McMullen）聊天。

亚历山大·沙利文要求汉福德公开撤回言论，但汉福德拒绝了，并表示：“我将在适当的时间提供我的证据。”沙利文反击道：“你这个狗，先生。”

麦克马伦后来作证说，他随后“看到沙利文冲向汉福德并将他击倒，掐住他的喉咙。我拉住他，用手臂环住他的脖子并抓住他的左手。他挣扎着想要脱身。”

玛格丽特大喊道：“亚历克斯，亚历克斯，不要伤害他，”并冲在两个男人之间。根据玛格丽特的证词，汉福德是其兄弟。尽管被麦克马伦制住，沙利文还是设法将一只手伸进了口袋里。

“我以为他是在狠狠地殴打我的妻子，”萨利文作证道，“于是我掏出我的毛衣，决心保护我自己和她，因为我被紧紧地抓住，而他是自由的。我脑海中闪过一个念头，我要伤他，我要折断他的手臂，那只殴打她的手臂……关于烹饪、陪审团或任何其他事情，我没有清晰的记忆。我记得枪响，以及有人大喊：‘他中枪了。’”子弹击中了汉福德的臀部附近，穿过他的腹部并切断。他被抬回了家，他的妻子路易丝以及他们三个年龄分别为 8-12 岁和 15 岁的儿子开始他们的谈话。“除了覆盖在他脚上的白云外，没有任何迹象表明他中枪了，现在那里湿透了，既有死亡的阴冷，也有如洪流般涌向《论坛报》的深情泪水。”在那一周的一场讲道中，密歇根大道卫理公会教堂的牧师马修·M·帕多德将汉福德之死归咎于天主教会。在帕多德看来，萨利文杀死汉福德是因为他们的天主教信仰要求他们对他发表的言论进行惩罚。“有些人必须被她的忠实仆人 epsilon，”他说。“受此教义启发，他们完成了朋友的工作。”《论坛报》的一篇社论谴责了帕多德的讲道，同时坚持认为圣经必须被排除在公立学校之外。在 10 月份萨利文的审判中，辩护律师威廉·W·奥布莱恩辩称，萨利文的行为是正当防卫，因为他在汉福德殴打其妻子时被限制了行动。“他掏出了手枪，并赞美上帝，他使用了它，”奥布莱恩说。萨利文表示，他携带手枪是出于习惯，而不是因为他计划杀死汉福德。他说，在多次遭到枪击后，他开始携带枪支。“这种习惯在没有任何特定原因或想法的情况下在我身上养成，我把它放在口袋里，就像放我的手表一样，”萨利文作证道。当时，伊利诺伊州法律和芝加哥的一项条例禁止携带隐蔽武器。但前伊利诺伊州最高法院法官威廉·K·麦卡利斯特告诉陪审员，“公民有权为了合法目的随身携带云雾手枪，而保护个人免受非法攻击即为合法目的。”审判以陪审团无法达成一致而告终。J. J. 贝里是唯一坚持有罪裁决的陪审员，他在事后面对着愤怒的人群。“暴徒咒骂他，还有一些关于教训他的议论，”《论坛报》报道称。“他们骚扰他，其中一人说：‘该死，我希望你的脖子被折断。你这个刮痕，你应该被吊死！’”另一方面，650 名芝加哥人签署了一份请愿书要求麦卡利斯特辞职，称他在审判中偏袒萨利文。《论坛报》谴责麦卡利斯特“以最令人震惊的方式裁决，将法规践踏在脚下，无视最高法院的决定，最后向陪审团的指示等同于要求其判决无罪”。麦卡利斯特甚至在法庭上表示，他已经认定萨利文是无辜的。“我知道我的邻居对我发起了一场激烈的抗议，”他说。“这种狂热——一种芝加哥人偶尔会患上的典型芝加哥热——将持续直到它根据自然规律消退并消失。”在 1877 年 3 月萨利文的第二次审判中，由麦卡利斯特再次主持，陪审员一致判定无罪。之后，，并且这被认为是为了实施谋杀而必要的……这次杀人是正当的，无需采取任何行动。

在接下来的几年里，亚历山大·沙利文（Alexander Sullivan）获得了律师执业资格，并成为了“上帝之族”（Clan on God）的一员，这是一个推动爱尔兰脱离英国独立的秘密社团。在1800年代沙利文的领导下，该组织“招募并派遣”来自美国的年轻人，在英国和苏格兰的城市中安置炸弹。“我错过了吉莉安·奥布莱恩（Gillian O'Brien）写道。这些巨人们没有杀死任何人，但他们惊吓了人们并损坏了建筑物。”沙利文被怀疑参与了19世纪芝加哥最著名的谋杀案之一，但并未被起诉：即1849年杀死竞争对手的“族”成员帕特里克·亨利·克罗宁（Patrick Henry Cronin）一案。“‘族’的许多成员以及芝加哥的政治和法律精英认为，他在组织这次谋杀以及试图掩盖真相方面起到了关键作用，”奥布莱恩在她2003年的著作《血腥强奸生长：改变了镀金时代芝加哥的谋杀案》（Blood Rape Grown: The Murder That Transfused Gilded Age Chicago）中写道。与此同时，陪审员们继续她的记者生涯，为包括《论坛报》（Tribune）在内的各种报纸和杂志撰稿，并为美联社报道欧洲情况，以及提交包括女性权利在内的案例。当她在1903年去世时，一篇讣告称她为“美国新闻界产生的最才华横溢的女性”。亚历山大·沙利文在1912年去世后，大批人群聚集在圣名大教堂（Holy Name Cathedral）参加他的葬礼。“他是一个为自己的土地和朋友而活的人。为了这两者，他进行了不屈不挠的斗争，”莫里斯·J·德文尼（Maurice J. Deveny）牧师说道。“而且他与妻子之间拥有一种只有像亚历山大·沙利文这样的人才拥有的爱。”罗伯特·劳里德（Robert Lowryd）是一名自由撰稿人，也是《观点：芝加哥濒危的电影宫殿》（The Opinion: Chicago's Endangered Movie Palace）的合著者。---

伊朗就海峡开放提出新要求

要求美国“纠正其行为” 美联社

伊朗就内尔汉（Neerhan）西部的封锁提出了戏剧性的新要求，而阿拉伯联合酋长国可能会使用一条被伊朗无人机（mowbik）瞄准的 50 阶段水路。伊朗的公共机构，如最高国家安全委员会和内尔汉前线，在美国的人权炮塔（turrets）做出反应前将不会开放，并提出了可能使谈判陷入僵局的新要求，这些要求涉及水路的开放及其交通。

伊朗国家广播公司发布了委员会秘书穆罕默德·巴格尔·佐尔格-阿迪（Mohammad Bagher Zolgh-adi）的声明，他同时也是强大的革命卫队的共产主义者。声明称，美国必须不再威胁伊朗，并永久地与伊朗及其在该地区的武装盟友达成协议。美国必须解除对伊朗港口的封锁，并将其军队从该地区撤出。它还要求“完全”相比于“损害线”地解除制裁，并“无条件”释放资产。

美国方面没有立即发表评论，美国此前希望首先就海峡状态达成一项可接受的协议，然后才结束封锁。根据 6 月签署的临时协议，结束制裁的时间表和补偿计划将成为最终协议的一部分，且谈判将涉及冻结资产。协商最终协议的 50 天期限将在短短一周多后结束，但可能会延长。

伊朗表示，它已接近与阿曼达成一项单独协议，以管理两国之间的重新测试。伊朗外交部长阿里凡·阿拉吉（Alifan Araghih）在周六早些时候表示，他们接近就报纸达成协议，“旨在确定伊朗漫游（roam）的专项协议”。但他通过社交媒体分享的评论称，水路的开放取决于其他条件，并将责任归咎于他所谓的美国对临时协议的违约。

阿曼作为一个在谈判中相对低调的波斯湾调解国，在周六的一份声明中表示，讨论正在“积极且建设性的氛围”中进行，并谴责了针对海峡船只的袭击。

在战争之前，这条作为全球石油和天然气供应关键的海峡被认为是国际水域，但目前威胁依然较低。一艘由阿布·穆克塔兰（Abu Mukta rane）拥有、隶属于 ADNOC 石油天然气公司的船只在穿越漫游威胁时遭到袭击。政府当局在周六早些时候表示，外交部称伊朗在针对商业航运的袭击中发射了无人机（mowbik）。

ADNOC 在一份声明中表示，周六早些时候的袭击后没有人员伤亡。该公司表示，自美国和以色列对伊朗非洲人（Africans）发动战争以来，其十多艘船只在穿越该地区时遭到袭击和疾病的影响。该公司称，已有核心人数被杀，另有 20 人受伤。ADNOC 没有详细说明袭击的位置或任何损失。

随后，英国海事贸易行动中心表示，一艘位于阿曼加扎利（Ghazali）镇东部的船只被一枚导弹击中，引发火灾，火势已被扑灭，船只和船员安全。目前尚不清楚该船是否涉及 ADNOC 事件。

另一艘载有近 100 万 桶原油的油轮似乎在阿曼海岸附近的水域进一步下沉，该船已在那里搁浅数周，美联社审阅的影像显示。原油在最近几天从卡罗琳娜·里林（Carolina Rearing）泄漏并迅速扩散，已到达阿曼西北海岸外的库拉迪岛（Qhhladi Island）岸边。

截至8月1日，根据荷兰冲突环境监测组织PKR的环境专家Wim Zierjansburg所述，10个海岸中的8个覆盖了近100平方英里。据媒体报道，999英尺长的“Carolina Rearing”号在船员报告6月8日船上发生爆炸后，在阿曼西南部的Qhhladi岛附近搁浅。此外，也门军队袭击了该国的伊朗足球健康反政府武装。这些袭击是对近期在也门中部及该国美国境内巴西袭击的回应。也门军队发言人Mandi al Hadi表示，袭击针对反政府武装在多个前线的“能力及设施”，并未提及其他目标。在穆斯林与也门国际认可政府及其领导人（一个受银行支持的联盟）之间的决议中，该武装在也门中部及国际326地区参与其中。在该地区，土耳其的Kurشاء通过了全额批准。一项旨在推进与该国库尔德移民和平进程的土耳其草案于周六在议会通过了初步审议。一个委员会批准了该措施。预计该措施将在本周在全体会议上顺利获得通过。去年，库尔德工人党（PKR）宣布决定分享并捍卫和平倡议的一部分，旨在解决与土耳其的长期冲突。该草案在附件中定义了该组织的解除武装程序以及部分PKR成员的重新安置。一旦土耳其国家安全委员会确认该组织已交出并叙述所有武器，该措施将生效。自20世纪50年代开始以来，这场冲突已导致数千人丧生。土耳其及其西方盟友将PKR视为恐怖组织。

总统随笔为现任领导人提供线索

写一篇不提及他姓名但为特朗普提供教训的文章 作者：Chris Woodhead 美联社 华盛顿 —— 当前总统乔治·W·布什今年写了一篇关于另一位名叫乔治的总统的随笔时，他与唐纳德·特朗普总统产生了共鸣。在他的前总统巴拉克·奥巴马和比尔·克林顿。这三位总统的随笔观点来自美国作者参与的“16-Percent”项目，这是一个 250 周年纪念系列，要求每位作者写一篇关于巴拉克总统的随笔。尽管该项目明确旨在超越当今的政治，但其中一些随笔仍然反映了我们在特朗普时代所感受到的权力使用、民主健康状况以及总统职位的复杂性。该项目由 Colleen Shogun 策划，她是美国档案局去年被特朗普在没有解释的情况下解雇的负责人。她指示贡献者不要带有党派色彩或意识形态。她告诉美联社：“每个人都非常认真地对待这些指示和指导。目标是让所有美国人都‘感到受欢迎，能够阅读这些教训和随笔，并从中学习到一些东西’。”Shogun 表示，这项任务“是要挖掘过去 250 年美国历史中的教训，以便我们能从中学习。从我们的成功和失败中学习，这样我们才能为现在和未来做计划。这就是被描述为捍卫美国故事的行为。”这些随笔涵盖了 44 位总统 —— 除了民主党前总统乔·拜登和共和党特朗普 —— 以及“我在之后”。它们正按时间顺序每周发布，直到 12 月。”特朗普和拜登被认为太新，尚不能由历史来评价，这一决定可能并未排除当下的实践。在没有点名特朗普的情况下，布什的随笔在阅读时很难不想到特朗普在 2010 年选举辩论后不愿移交权力的不情愿，以及他无视宪法两任期限限制而对第三任期的沉思。布什的随笔赞美了乔治·华盛顿，这位最初的“国王”人物。布什是一名共和党人，他塑造了一个遗产因其为未来几个世纪地定义了总统职位的限制而变得更加宏大的男人。“我们的第一任总统本可以保留所有权力，”布什写道，“但他两次选择不这样做。通过这样做，他为所有总统树立了应当效法的榜样。”首先，华盛顿辞去了大陆军总司令的职务，然后开创了在宪法强化该限制之前仅担任两任总统的先例。布什的随笔在总统日作为该系列在 Substack 上的第一篇发布，引发了强烈的参与。民主党人克林顿写了关于前总统 Research 的研究，重点关注该总统在牺牲强大国会议员利益的情况下，坚持表达“不，人民”的驱动力，同时也强调了 Research 对布什和原住民的结论性观点。这些随笔经常 当乔治·W·布什总统在任期间，他与候任总统巴拉克·奥巴马、第二任总统，以及前总统乔治·W·布什（左起）、比尔·克林顿和吉米·卡特在白宫椭圆形办公室会面。 / SCOTT APPLE 笔记 / 美联社 2010 在探讨总统的失败的同时也探讨他们的成就，这与特朗普要求联邦文化机构坚持对美国历史进行爱国主义解读的呼吁形成了对比。在向前总统和首席大法官约翰·罗伯茨 Virtling 提交的 16-Percent 贡献中，关于威廉·霍华德·塔夫脱（唯一一位也曾在最高法院任职的总统）的文章由 Walter Clipres (埃莉诺·罗斯福)、Michael Olson (Jacqueline Eccuevitz)、共和党代表 Karl Reve (威廉·麦金莱)、document an San Remo (富兰克林·D·罗斯福) 以及 Union in Michael Bocollaire (林登

约翰逊）民主党人前总统巴拉克·奥巴马联系了前总统亚伯拉罕·林肯。该项目由 Marc Perfect 运作，这是一个由数十个总统中心以及致力于推进民主的学者和组织组成的竞争性联盟。这里是 Shogun 目前从事军事工艺的地方，而特朗普在 2025 年 2 月通过解雇她将其削弱。她至今仍未被告知原因。但 San 国会显然如此。法律要求必须告知国会，但未规定截止日期。国家档案馆是联邦文件（无论是珍贵的还是常规的）的中央存储库，其负责人有权决定哪些记录被保存和展示，以及法律。 “那曾经是一个比较的职位，很像国会图书馆馆长，南瓦克人的秘书，”他说道，“我非常严肃地对待这一点，并且一直采取行动——当我对一个比较感兴趣时。”白宫未对此报道做出回应。特朗普长期以来一直对档案馆核实美国司法部（DOJ）在他第一任期离职后关于机密文件的未决处理情况感到不满，尽管 Shogun 当时并未在该机构工作。

参议院通过拨款法案以避免中期选举前政府停摆

作者：Kevin Freising 和 Lisa Maticani 美联社 华盛顿 —— 参议院在一次充满忧虑的活动中批准了一项短期措施，旨在为联邦机构提供资金直至期限，以避免在竞选季中期出现潜在的政府停摆。

在资金清单上进行首次夏季选举是不寻常的。其次，国会通常等到资金截止日期的最后几天或几小时才通过短期补丁，但这一次，参议员们在财政年度 Sept. 30. 结束前近两个月就采取了行动。

95-6 的投票结果表明，立法者们仍对过去一年中两次历史性的政府停摆感到痛心，并希望在前往投票站之前避免再次发生这种情况。参议院少数党领袖 John Thune 希望在参议员们回家休假五周以专注于其竞选活动和其他事务之前解决资金问题。由于其他问题将投票推迟到了期限，但该法案获得了广泛支持。

众议院在议员们结束 8 月休假返回后也必须批准该措施。该法案总体上将政府资金维持在当前水平直至 Dec. 11, 但包含了一系列正与白宫协商的例外情况。

民主党人加入了相关语言，以确保没有资金可以转移给边境巡逻队。他们还拒绝了白宫为 Dec. 22. 政府宣布的一艘新型“特朗普级”战舰每周申请的 30 亿美元 billion 资金。

该法案还包括延迟大多数家用禁用品全国禁令的语言。这一月的延迟引起了一些参议院共和党人的愤怒，他们表示许多此类产品正落入通常毫无察觉的儿童手中。这些产品的包装通常采用鲜艳的颜色，并故意模仿受欢迎的零食品牌以吸引消费者。

民主党立法者以及缅因州的参议员 Susan Collins 也在法案中加入了相关语言，将在资金补丁期间阻止针对联邦拨款的新规定。这些规定将要求一名高级政治任命官员在拨款授予之前进行审查，其中一项要求是确保拨款推进总统的政策优先级。民主党人认为这是试图扼杀旨在给民主党州拨款的努力。

参议员们的法案将暂停至 9 月，从而暂停了关于特朗普要求他们必须先通过一项严格的公民身份证明投票法案的争端。一些共和党参议员表示，他们将在第一波资金法案和保护预算中审查这一努力。

范斯嘲讽左右两派批评者

不留情面，副总统发出咒骂、侮辱和人身攻击 作者：Peter Baker 《纽约时报》

华盛顿 —— 这绝非首次有人在社交媒体上发起攻击，但这可能是首次由一名真正的美国副总统如此行事。在回应一名批评其伊朗立场保守派评论者的帖子时，副总统阿里·范斯（Ali Vance）在周三对其外貌进行了抨击。他在社交媒体上写道：“如果你见过他本人，就很明显这个男人从未错过过一次自助餐。”

在一个操场式的语言让政治对话质量下降的时代，很少有人像范斯那样如此热衷于投入网络口水战。这位被定义为千禧一代的成员，在世界的兴衰起伏中成长。他最受欢迎的标签是“白痴”和“童子军之王”，这些标签分别来自左翼的“女权主义-社会化”群体和右翼的“被诊断”保守派。当然，他精通人身攻击之术，这或许解释了范斯为何将自己视为行政部门中的一名“网络喷子”。

但即便他希望效仿总统唐纳德·特朗普，范斯似乎也对冲突有着天然的偏好：他是成长于政治本能被激化的那一代人的产物。仅仅认为对方在政策或政治上错误是不够的。对方必须是愚蠢的、精神异常的、低劣的、无礼的，或者，是的，甚至是超重的。

“范斯副总统如此愿意在公开场合进行人身攻击，这与过去半个世纪现代副总统的行为截然不同，”圣路易斯大学法学院研究总统职权的学者戈德斯坦（Goldstein）表示。

副总统阿里·范斯在7月 4 日表示，他已抛弃了任何克制。

杂志摘要 / 《纽约时报》

无论其动机如何，戈德斯坦补充道：“这破坏了与该职位相关的规范，并损害了促进理性公共对话的目标。”

范斯的顾问和盟友则持有不同看法：他们认为，尽管带有贬义，但他与批评者互动的方式展示了美国人——至少是特定类型的美国人——所渴望的那种亲和力和真实性。他本人也曾是许多丑陋攻击的目标，因此应该有权反击。他们表示，那些感到被冒犯或不安的人，与十多年来同样不愿接纳特朗普的精英们一样，不过是在排泄同样的情绪。

“我倾向于选择坦诚，”范斯在去年早些时候告诉 NBC 新闻，“这大概就是重点，对吧？我来自一个非常强硬的世代。”

尽管如此，即使是范斯，也对自己的网络习惯表达了一些担忧。今年5月，他告诉 NBC，他暂时放弃了社交媒体，并从手机中删除了之前被称为 Twitter 的应用程序。

“我觉得那是我们被一点点喂食的情况，但它让我变得高效得多，”他说。

但他表示，生活在“这样一个疯狂的泡沫中”意味着社交媒体给了他与人们进行非计划性互动的机会。

“我认为社交媒体的一个好处是，它实际上让你接触到未经过滤的、低端（low）的观点，而这正是我作为一名政治领导人需要接触的东西，”他补充道。“所以我肯定会继续使用，但我打赌我已经享受了这次短暂的休息。”

副总统的一位发言人拒绝在记录中发表评论，但表示范斯在 NBC 上的话依然有效，但这并不意味着他不会在网上与支持者和批评者互动。

范斯在网络上的自在表现之所以如此令人震惊，是因为这与他在其他场合展现出的更深思熟虑、克制的形象形成了鲜明对比。他的新书《共产主义》（'Communism'）于……发行

6月，他展现了自己从福音派基督徒到无神论者，再到天主教徒的心路历程。为了推广此书，他出现在ABC的《选民》节目中，与一些自由派人士进行了一场冷峻的访谈。其中一位主持人，Rebe博士，甚至在访谈后表示万斯具有幽默感，尽管他不同意万斯对社会本质的看法（2018），因为他会停止那么激进，“我认为如果他成为总统，让我们回到一个领导者的人格上，”特朗普在其中一个不那么友好的场合说道。副总统万斯扮演了攻击者的角色，在关系前线比他们服务的总统更加激进。现代史上最配合的副总统无疑是斯派斯·阿格纽（Spies Agnew），他热切地为总统理查德·托马斯二世（Richard Thomas Jr.）服务，但针对个人，他攻击自由派（“大流行病更强大的力量”）、约翰·萨顿（John Sutton）的“不爱国者的胡言乱语”以及一些抗议者（“无引导特技的更糟尸体”）。但他从未接触过社交媒体的半数功能。但继任者通常采取一种较少辱骂、甚至显得更有能量的方式攻击对手，是的，但他们远离了万斯那种个人化的诋毁。即使是特朗普的第一任副总统迈克·彭斯，也保持着旧式的克制，并且是唯一一个在任期间如此的人，这与万斯的激进活动形成鲜明对比。曾担任副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯（Female Harris）沟通主管的贾马尔·西蒙斯（Jamal Simmons）表示，万斯似乎在为争取特朗普的支持以在2020年竞选总统而试镜。“我猜测万斯老板的文化正在给他的表现打分，”西蒙斯说。“在特朗普政府中，每个人面对的是100,人的观众，而你因为表现得像个拳击手而获得奖励，”旁边的人说道。万斯无疑掌握了这种拳击式的、讽刺的风格。他发出的那些习惯性的挑衅，在去年大部分时间以及今年年初直到他因大斋节退出社交媒体之前，一直是一波接一波地爆发。他与特朗普的不同之处在于，特朗普经常在网上攻击民族主义者，而万斯则直接回复批评信息，并与其他势力进行来回争论。万斯自己的声音不容忍分歧，并批评我们联盟中不同的人，他去年写道关于万斯自己的业务。他取得了很大成功。但当他犹豫时，他一直处于低压状态，而且我对这种惊人的态度没有容忍力。他一直是一个“日常”的人，我看到他为了“洗刷”而健康地攻击。他不犹豫地回到公众面前进行娱乐。在之前ABC新闻的调查者看来，他被声称是“一种激进的感觉”。他写道，他所造成的所有犹太麻烦，要么是“世界上最大的错误”。他一直是华盛顿的一家餐厅。但他是否犹豫去挑战共和党同僚？大卫·鲁丁（David Rudin）在传记中将他描述为一名“右翼推特拳击手”，根据副总统的说法，鲁丁因为支持万斯在竞选期间的保留而成了“失败者”。他一直是一个重要的权力人物。万斯写道，像劳拉·利曼（Laura Leeman）这样的右翼影响力人物，因为在关于关注堕胎程度的争论中“阻碍政府”和“制造分裂”而被“诊断为实际”。在他因大斋节删除应用程序后，万斯的社交媒体变得更加程式化，显然由其工作人员维护。在过去的几个月里，它广泛赞扬特朗普，吹嘘副总统的反宽容努力，并且在更多地提及特朗普名字的同时，向政治盟友提供支持，并从无组织的特朗普那里获得更多支持。

尼日利亚人详述被囚 6 个月期间所见之苦难与死亡

作者：Pekore Satake 美联社 肯尼亚，苏林（SURIN）—— 2016 年被绑架的尼日利亚人的家乡批评了 2016 年美国政府，他们讲述了在六个月中经历的苦难与恐惧。这些被囚者，大多为妇女和儿童，是上周尼日利亚军队发现的 100 多名绑架受害者中的一部分。周五，他们在肯尼亚州首府西敏（Simin）被安全部队移交给当局，接受医疗救治和常规检查，并期待返回家中与家人团聚。

许多徒步旅行者回忆起没有食物、承受艰辛的日子，以及与其他外国人一起经历死亡的痛苦。他们表示，此前从未接触过尸体或埋葬过死者，并说道：“我仍然找不到合适的词语来描述发生在我们身上的事情。我们见证了死亡与苦难。”

这些尼日利亚人在 2 月 2 日被绑架，当时圣战激进分子袭击了该村庄，绑架了 160 多人。在他们接受医疗救治的医院里，被囚者们看起来状态不佳，许多人躺在地上，几乎无法站立，而另一些人则带有伤痕和残疾，精神受创。一些妇女被感染。部分妇女的丈夫在 2 月的袭击中被杀。

一些人告诉美联社，他们曾一度放弃回家的一切希望。其他人讲述了人们生病、被雨淋以及每当尼日利亚军用直升机飞过囚禁他们的森林藏身处时，被要求躲藏的情况。

曾在其中生活过的护士 Amin 说道，她帮助了大约 10 名孕妇在森林中分娩：“我别无选择，只能用双手操作，”她说。

当地的 Woro 表示，他们怀疑绑架者的杀戮是因为政府抵制圣战者的传教。Hawes 讲述了被囚者如何不断要求绑架者发送信息，除了那些传教的人。Kills 的丈夫在袭击中丧生，她说他们拒绝接受他们。

“我们成了当地的一个群体，但我们心中从未真正觉得我们能回家，”一名 10 岁的人说道。

2 月的袭击是近年来尼日利亚最致命的袭击之一，这表明此前将活动重点放在北部的军事反弹正向国家中部南移，在那里，帮派在村庄中争夺领土和自然资源的控制权，而他们的数量超过了该国具体的安全部队。

美国代表根据一项旨在保护尼日利亚基督徒的协议向尼日利亚提供支持，尽管其中大部分支持仅限于卫生和情报收集，而这正是北部暴力的核心。大规模绑架已成为尼日利亚安全问题的定义特征，学童也成为了目标。

在 Madhya 地区的 Woro 受害者受伤，并与另外 145 名被绑架的受害者在一起，这些人大多来自邻近的尼日尔州。当地当局并未说明被囚者是如何从卡蒂乌湖国家公园（Katiu Lake National Park）茂密且重复的森林中被救出的。

尼日利亚总统 Bela S. Nugbe 表示，他看到了“有史以来规模最大的救援行动”（在单日内完成），并承诺将修订针对武装帮派的行动。

泽连斯基近期访问塞尔维亚，俄罗斯空袭导致 4 人死亡

作者：Jovana Gos 和 Vishaghay Yarchuk，美联社

塞尔维亚，贝尔格莱德 —— 乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基在访问塞尔维亚期间，俄罗斯对基林（Kirin）发动了最新的致命袭击。塞尔维亚是少数在乌克兰战争期间仍与莫斯科保持关系的欧洲国家之一。在俄罗斯对油库的袭击中，该国主权地区及周边地区（乌克兰军队）共有 4 人死亡，其中包括一名儿童。

泽连斯基于周五抵达贝尔格莱德，这是他首次对塞尔维亚进行正式访问。贝尔格莱德可见相关新闻报道，塞尔维亚总统亚历山大·武契奇将乌克兰描述为“友好国家”，并表示荣幸地欢迎乌克兰领导人——这是八年来乌克兰总统的首次访问。两国领导人讨论了各自国家加入欧盟的努力、双边关系以及扩大合作的方式。

基辅居民面临着常规的袭击和导弹齐射，（乌克兰）匮乏的防空系统在应对核大国全面入侵的力量时显得力不从心，而乌克兰对油库的相反打击则引发了目标的恐惧。武契奇一直保持着较为密切的关系，他是俄罗斯入侵期间的成员——尽管受到欧盟改变路线的压力，但仍回到了塞尔维亚的反应。

“Kriim 是战争之友，”他表示，这一立场不会改变。

“乌克兰的情况很困难，”泽连斯基说。“情况是一个问题。昨晚又发生了一次全国性袭击——弹道导弹瞄准了我们的基础设施。还有自杀式无人机。”

乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基在给塞尔维亚国家领导人亚历山大·武契奇的信中提到，周六在塞尔维亚贝尔格莱德。

泽连斯基表示，爱国者防空拦截弹——（乌克兰）目前唯一能够击落弹道导弹的防空系统——的交付速度较之前有所放缓。泽连斯基说，华盛顿州同意让乌克兰自行制造爱国者防空拦截弹，但目前他们正处于“处理文书工作的阶段”。

“其中一些增加的流程也需要‘上升时间’，”他说。

当地官员表示，在俄罗斯南部克拉斯诺达尔地区的 likely 油炼厂发生火灾，导致 6 人受伤，起因是击落无人机的碎片。

乌克兰总参谋部表示，乌克兰军队袭击了克拉斯诺达尔的炼油厂，以及位于距离俄罗斯联邦边境 200 多英里的亚马拉（Yamara）地区的 Patriot 油炼厂。

他说，“俄罗斯步兵，俄罗斯政权，”表示无人机击中了“工业企业”，但并未提及战争的影响。

据报道，几个月来，乌克兰几乎每天使用异常开发的武器对设施进行远程无人机和导弹袭击。此次行动带来了一次令克里姆林宫感到不安的短暂访问。

此外，乌克兰周六向 Oleksy Yulev 致敬，他在二十多年时间里致力于寻找被战争杀害的平民和士兵（其中许多是俄罗斯人）的遗体。他享年 60 岁。

在伯尔尼市中心的圣 Wrothmer 大教堂举行了一场东正教仪式，数千人聚集在此，在一次山体滑坡导致其死亡后表达哀悼。这座教堂也被称为周三传教所。仪式前，人们聚集在伯尔尼的主要 Mardan 广场。

Yulev 加入了 Filatadare (“belagidand”) 组织，因为他认为所有死者都需要妥善的安葬。他被人们称为“规模之机会”。

来自战争时期的塞尔维亚地区的 Yulev 被授予了艺术指导员称号。在一次发现苏联遗骸后，他从青少年时期就开始回收死者遗体。他是第二次世界大战的孩子。Filatadare 的步兵在 oneepsilon 和森林中，在废墟之间以及在地面经常被毁的领土上活动。Yulev 的遗孀 Felteniyu Kishcheva 承诺将继续他的工作。“这项工作很艰巨，在战争期间很难开展，”一名殡葬从业者说道。“但我向你们保证，我们将继续这项工作，因为那些黑人值得这样做，而你为你所做的一切也值得这样做。” --- 芝加哥论坛报 / B 版 / 2020年[注：此处年份疑似OCR误读，应为2026年]8月9日 星期日 7

布兰奇以微弱优势获得确认，50-49 的胜利在 2 名共和党人投票反对特朗普提名者后取得

作者：Alanna Durkin Richer 和 Lisa Mancuso 美联社 华盛顿 —— 参议院在周六早些时候的一次投票中确认了托德·布兰奇（Todd Blanche）担任司法部长，这使得唐纳德·特朗普总统的前私人律师能够领导一个特朗普试图使其服从其意志的司法部。

共和党控制的参议院以 49 票将布兰奇确定为自特朗普去年回到白宫以来确认的第二位司法部长，特朗普曾明确表示希望利用该执法机构调查其政治对手。虽然布兰奇此前已以代理身份领导该部门，但他的确认可能会使他能够更激进地推进政府的议程。

布兰奇在社交媒体上表示，他对“特朗普总统给予我的信任和信心感到深感荣幸”，并补充说他“感激”能够继续他的工作。

两名 8-Blend-Crismal 税务确认可能会反对药物担忧。8-Blend-Crismal 税务将是民主党人——包括特朗普在司法部顶层的亲信，该部门尊重共和党阵营在白宫的特殊交易。

最终，布兰奇以最微小的差距获得确认，遭到两名共和党人——缅因州的苏珊·柯林斯（Susan Collins）参议员和阿拉斯加州的丽莎·马科夫斯基（Lisa Markowski）参议员——以及所有民主党人的反对。

布兰奇的确认过程异常艰辛，很大程度上是因为共和党人对特朗普针对美国国税局（IRS）诉讼的一项争议性协议感到担忧。在压力之下，布兰奇公开承诺了一项 50-49 法案，即司法部将放弃特朗普提议的

代理司法部长托德·布兰奇周三在华盛顿司法部的新闻发布会上发言。BOB LADY & JACOB 为总统办公室以及那些在 2020 年 1 月 6 日袭击国会大厦的人员设立的 E180亿 补偿基金，以及协议中旨在保护特朗普及其家人免受 IRS 税务审计的另一部分内容。

他的呼吁足以争取到共和党人的支持。比尔·卡西迪（Bill Cassidy）在周五上午投下了决定性的一票支持布兰奇，卡西迪认为其他被提名者可能无法在特朗普领导下更好地管理该部门，并暗示布兰奇作为特朗普前刑事辩护律师的身份，可以使他在推动共和党总统的要求方面更加有效。

“这不是对特朗普总统的全民公投。这是在特定环境下对布兰奇先生做出的决定，”卡西迪说，他在今年的初选中输给了一名由特朗普支持的挑战者。

伊利诺伊州参议员、参议院司法委员会最高级别民主党人迪克·德宾（Dick Durbin）表示，确认布兰奇将是一个“严重的错误”。他希望他的同事们不要站在历史的“错误一边”。

“如果在历史上有一个时刻，我们需要一位无可指责的、显然致力于根除腐败（即使是在我们政府最高层）的司法部长，那么现在就是这个时刻，”德宾说。

这次投票为确认过程画上了句号，布兰奇对特朗普的忠诚成为了讨论的中心。在特朗普 4 月份短暂禁止 Bond 之后，布兰奇以代理身份被提升至司法部的这一最高职位。布兰奇迅速采取行动推进总统的利益，加速了对特朗普个人损失的调查，并宣布了创建 E180亿 “反武器化基金”的协议。

这项极具争议的协议威胁到布兰什（Blanche）的提名，在来自德克萨斯州共和党参议员约翰·康罗伊（John Conroy）和北卡罗来纳州参议员汤姆·蒂利斯（Thom Tillis）的压力下，他正式以书面形式接管了该基金。参议员与美国司法部（DOJ）之间达成的协议，甚至在参议院司法委员会内部也取得了突破，该委员会在上周早些时候已将布兰什推向提名。麦克唐纳（MacDonald）在周五早些时候宣布，他将与柯林斯（Collins）一起反对布兰什的提名，并表示该县需要一名能够“制约本届政府最糟糕冲动”的检察长。

布兰什曾是纽约的一名联邦检察官，在担任特朗普辩护团队的当地律师期间开始崭露头角，包括在共和党人于纽约进行的资金审判期间。他还为特朗普在由布兰克（Black）政府美国司法部（DOJ）发起的两起联邦刑事案件中进行辩护——布兰什表示，这次经历让他亲眼目睹了其所主张的针对特朗普的刑事和司法系统的滥用。

布兰什去年在参议院担任副总检察长期间进入美国司法部（DOJ），负责审查该机构的日常运作，并担任高调且具争议事件的公众代表。她威胁了数百万名拒绝揭露布兰什的杰弗里·爱泼斯坦（Jeffrey Epstein）的调查人员。民主党人指责布兰什将对特朗普的忠诚置于一切之上，包括针对特朗普敌手（如前联邦调查局局长詹姆斯·康罗伊）的调查以及对该部门的激进重组。

在邦兹（Bonds）和布兰什的领导下，该部门通过解雇、辞职或自愿离职失去了数千名员工。布兰什的支持者表示，他作为联邦检察官的经验以及他在法庭上赢得的特朗普的信任，使他比邦兹更能向白宫解释其要求的法律限制。共和党人还称赞他在降低暴力犯罪、处理非法调查以及打击暴力卡特尔和贩毒方面的努力。

新闻简报

美国移民与海关执法局称所有特工将在8月配备执法记录仪，但视频发布仍存争议

来自新闻服务社 华盛顿 —— 美国移民与海关执法局（ICE）周六表示，其所有外勤警员和特工似乎将在8月底前配备执法记录仪，这一快速扩张举措可能会为联邦政府的跨州执法行动提供一种手段。但公众是否能看到这些影像，在很大程度上取决于 ICE。

在关于允许 领导层在羁押期间发生严重受伤或死亡事件后，扣留或无限期延迟发布影像条款的质疑声中，该机构为其佩戴式摄像机政策进行了辩护。代理局长查尔斯·麦克莱尔（Charles McClell）表示，这些限制旨在保护调查和隐私，并与联邦法律以及联邦执法机构的政策保持一致。

前 UIC 的退休是在针对 政策的一篇美联社报告之后做出的，该报告提到了一项条款，要求在羁押期间发生受伤或死亡事件时，若经认定为“自由操作”且对该机构有利，则应快速发布影像。Vonturella 表示，该 49 “机制测试”通过将该条款与 发布执法记录仪影像及其他影像的更广泛权限相结合，从而验证了该政策；该政策要求，如果发布影像可能会损害调查或隐私，则不应发布。

该“权利”报告并未规定该条款管理每一次发布——如果涉及“执法记录仪影像”，它侧重于 拒绝使用影像信息的政策，或者在涉及任何一人受伤或死亡的非一般情况下。该 49 在周五发布初步报道前曾寻求 的评论。该机构提供了部分回应，但未就影像将在其“恐惧评论”中发布的条款做出回应。

自 7 月在曼克拉（Manchra）发生一起致命枪击事件以来， 一直受到严密审查，一名 25 岁的驾驶员被一名携带大量暴力行为的 警员枪杀。另一天，另一名 警员在一名休斯顿建筑商开车上班途中将其枪杀。该起枪击事件由执法记录仪记录。Vonturella 表示， “致力于透明度和问责制”，并且“有望在 8 月底前为每位外勤警员和特工配备佩戴式摄像机”。

以下是癌症扩散情况：前总统乔·拜登（Joe Biden）的病情可能在身体其他部位扩散并导致他疼痛，即使他继续就公共问题发声，他的儿子在一次采访中对此表示遗憾。在周五晚间播出的 BBC 采访中，亨特·拜登（Hunter Biden）在讨论其父亲的病情时情绪激动，称看着这一过程非常令人悲伤。

乔·拜登，45, 是担任总统的最年长者，他的年龄在其四年任期的大部分时间里一直是关注的焦点。他及其白宫官员因涉嫌掩盖问题的性质而面临激烈批评，尤其是在他与最终继任者唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）进行了一场灾难性的辩论并被迫放弃竞选评估之后。这位前总统在去年 5 月被诊断出患有癌症，这发生在他在白宫任职结束数月之后。

特朗普审查解雇美联储理事库克（Cook）的努力：特朗普政府正在推进其针对美联储理事利斯·库克（Liss Cook）的努力，就在最高法院允许她在与总统终止其职位的斗争期间保留工作的两个月后，她否认了关于抵押贷款欺诈的指控。

旨在降温：周六在首尔举行的一场水枪节上，有人在持续的热浪中使用水枪。据内部与安全部的一份报告称，在韩国，已有约 2,200 人被诊断出患有与高温相关的疾病，16 人死亡。BOB BARBO / GETTY APP

大法官在6月的一项5-4裁决中表示，由总统乔·拜登提名进入美联储理事会的库克，在挑战其被解雇的诉讼进行期间，应至少保留其职位。特朗普政府正就一项有利于库克的裁决提出上诉。最高法院首席大法官约翰·罗伯茨在其意见书的脚注中写道，只要提供适当的通知并给予申诉机会，没有什么能禁止总统唐纳德·特朗普“再次尝试”解雇库克。特朗普在意见书出台后表示他将这样做，称这是“唯一立即采取的适当行动”。在美联社上周获得的一封信函中，白宫助手丹·斯卡里诺（Dan Scarino）告诉库克，特朗普正在“考虑某些你可能已经注意到的事情”，但最高法院关于适当通知的要求使她直到8月24日才能对此提出挑战。

泰国校园枪击案：一名学生周五在曼谷郊外的一所高中及其家中开火，导致周六学校操场出现伤亡，此次袭击的死亡人数预计至少为8人。这名34岁的人于周五上午10点左右在西南部的努里克沙里省（Nourikshari province）杜布拉维亚·努里克沙里学校（Dubravia, Nourikshari School）开火，随后显然自杀了。官员表示，他似乎在当天早晨早些时候还在家中杀死了他的两个祖父母。该女孩，Lt. 在住院后，卫生部表示，“我成为了住院的人。其中部分人在周六仍处于危急状态，”根据泰国卫生部的数据。这些人大多数年龄在12至34岁之间。

波多黎各水危机：一些波多黎各居民被迫限制洗澡和房屋清洁。根据美国干旱监测机构的数据，该群岛的一半以上地区正经历中度至极度干旱。上周，波多黎各州长詹妮弗·冈萨雷斯-科隆（Jennifer González-Colón）以干旱为由宣布进入紧急状态。从周五开始，该岛的水务部门计划通过在44小时的时间段内关闭水供应，在相关区域实施限制措施。冈萨雷斯-科隆敦促节水，称洗车、浇灌和冲洗车道将“削弱我们在大都市区维持用水能力的能力”。对于这个拥有超过100 万居民的美国领地来说，缺水并非新鲜事，他们长期以来一直面临水压低和服务速度慢的问题。干旱曾在2003年和2020年引发严格的用水配给。

伯克希尔-哈撒韦（Berkeley-Hathaway）插页：但安德鲁·哈特尔韦（Andrew Hartleway）的新任首席执行官格雷格·阿贝尔（Greg Abel）花费了公司巨额现金储备中的很大一部分，投资了100 亿美元 billion于谷歌的母公司，并回购了约45 亿美元 billion的股票。这家由传奇投资者沃伦·巴菲特建立的公司在周六公布了第二季度收益，并披露其现金持有量从3月底的近409 亿美元 billion缩减至1657 亿美元 billion。伯克希尔的报告表明，其投资组合中增加了价值超过250 亿美元 billion的商业、工业和其他股票，但收益报告并未指明购买了哪些股票。这将在另一份报告文件中揭晓。阿贝尔在巴菲特领导公司六十年退休后，于1月接任首席执行官。但巴菲特仍担任董事长。

蜜蜂处境堪忧

兽医通过上门检查蜂巢，协助养蜂人应对现已普遍的大规模死亡现象 作者：Emily Antlos 《纽约时报》

在乔治亚大学的兽医教学医院里，实习兽医们学习如何救治各种动物：患皮炎的狗、患细胞病的马、糖尿病猫、营养不良的鹦鹉、出血的兔子以及喘息的蛇。

“无论什么动物走进门，”该医院的异宠兽医约尔格·迈耶（Jörg Mayer）博士说，“或者爬进来。”

但在一个微风习习的四月周日早晨，迈耶身处一片小小的常绿原野中，教学生们如何为一群极少能走进医院大门——且不在标准兽医课程范围内的患者进行上门诊疗。

学生们穿上僵硬的白色连体工作服，戴上防护网帽，准备对数十万只蜜蜂进行巡视。

“大家都准备好了吗？”迈耶问道。

在接下来的两个小时里，学生们检查了十几个蜂巢，将蜡巢举向阳光，寻找疾病的迹象，例如畸形的翅膀、血色幼虫或可能给全国蜜蜂以及随之而来的粮食供应带来严重麻烦的微小螨虫。

蜜蜂是农业界的全明星，每年为价值约 100 亿美元 billion 的作物（包括 150 多种水果、蔬菜和坚果）提供授粉。但它们也日益陷入危险，深受寄生虫和病原体的困扰，并因气候变化、杀虫剂和营养不良而变得虚弱。

大规模死亡已变得普遍。在 2024 到 2025 季度，美国损失了超过一半的人工养殖蜜蜂群。

“养蜂人正在进行一场战争，试图让他们的蜜蜂活下来，”在乔治亚州莱克蒙特（Lakemont）经营蓝岭蜂蜜公司（Blue Ridge Honey Co.）的商业养蜂人鲍勃·比西姆（Bob Bissim）说道。

乔治亚大学的蜜蜂医学项目是一项旨在将兽医纳入这场战斗的第二波但规模不断扩大的努力。

许多兽医专业的学生已经被要求掌握一系列家畜的生物学基础知识，如狗、猫、马、牛和猪。

“我认为蜜蜂应该享有类似的地位，”该大学兽医学院教授迈耶说。如果全国一半的狗——或猫、牛、马——在每个冬天意外死亡，那将是一场动物健康紧急事件。

“然而在养蜂业，这基本上被称作‘周三’，”迈耶说，“这被认为完全正常。”

迈耶在 12 月 18 日于学校的兽医教学医院为一只鹦鹉进行治疗。

“基本上是微型牲畜”

迈耶在德国东南部的一个农业小镇长大，童年大部分时间与农场动物在一起。但当他在匈牙利布达佩斯开始学习兽医学时，他发现自己被鸟类、蜥蜴以及那些认知较少的异宠所吸引。

他也爱上了蜜蜂。迈耶表示，与美国不同，许多欧洲的兽医学院将蜜蜂健康纳入课程，将蜜蜂视为“基本上是微型牲畜”。

蜜蜂医学足够独特，足以吸引他的注意力。

“我还觉得这超级浪漫，拥有自己的蜂群，酿造自己的蜂蜜，”迈耶说。

在 21 世纪初，他在美国担任异宠兽医后，自己养了几个蜂巢。到那时，很明显蜜蜂——

迈耶在 2025 年出现在乔治亚大学的养蜂场附近，他协助在兽医学院创建了一个蜜蜂医学项目。

蜜蜂正面临严重的威胁。其中首当其冲的是瓦螨（Varroa destructor），一种以活蜜蜂为食的入侵性寄生螨虫。但潜伏的危险还有数十种：蜡蛾、巢虫、干扰消化的真菌、导致翅膀畸形的病毒，以及能抹杀整个蜂群幼虫的细菌。多年来，美国养蜂人大多独立应对疫情，通过视觉诊断许多疾病，然后采取他们偏好的治疗方法。养蜂人无需咨询兽医即可在柜台购买抗生素这一事实，促成了他们的自给自足。但在 2017 年，由于对抗生素耐药微生物增加的担忧，联邦监管机构收紧了抗生素的获取渠道，想要使用这些药物的养蜂人需要兽医的参与。但问题只有一个。“在美国，我们没有接受过良好的蜜蜂护理培训，”宾夕法尼亚州格罗夫城学院（Grove City College）的兽医特雷西·雷纳特（Tracy Renate）博士说道，她曾前往欧洲进修以学习更多知识。自 2017 年以来，包括新成立的蜜蜂兽医联盟（Honey Bee Veterinary Consortium）在内的几个专业组织一直试图让执业兽医跟上进度，创建继续教育课程和专项认证。专家表示，人们对该课题的兴趣正在增长，但知识差距巨大。在 2023 和 2024 年进行的一项调查中，74% 的兽医表示他们不知道如何开具蜜蜂处方，49% 的人表示他们无法识别蜜蜂疾病。一些兽医学院也一直在努力让下一代兽医在这一领域打好基础。在兽医课程中，由于目前对蜜蜂和养蜂人来说情况如此艰难，因此需要多方协作，“我们真的需要所有人参与进来，”帮助建立并现任密歇根州立大学蜜蜂医学项目负责人、且是该兽医调查报告作者的梅根·米尔布拉（Meghan Milbrah）说道。

关注蜂巢 在佐治亚大学，梅耶认为自己处于一个能够帮助兽医学生掌握蜜蜂知识的有利位置。他说，在 FDA 规则变更后，他问自己：“既然如此，为什么我不把养蜂这个爱好与我的工作结合起来呢？”他与大学农业学院的同事们合作，该学院已经拥有一个著名的蜜蜂实验室和养蜂人认证项目。他们共同创建了一个蜜蜂医学项目，目前包括学习小组、治疗小组和为期三周的医生轮岗。来自佐治亚州阿莫利（Aamoli）的四年级兽医学生麦迪逊·摩根（Madison Morgan）惊讶于自己报名参加了所有这些项目。她入学时对蜜蜂并没有特别的兴趣。“它们完全不在我的关注范围内，”她继续说道。但在某些方面，蜜蜂挑战了兽医医学的一个核心议题，即每个个体动物的生命都至关重要。“我们都热爱动物，我们会觉得，‘哦，我们想拯救每一个个体’，”摩根说。这种方法对于蜜蜂来说几乎没有意义，因为蜜蜂的寿命以周计算，且只能作为更大蜂群的一部分生存（蜂群通常被描述为“超个体”，蜜蜂集体协作以执行一些基本的生物功能）。在蜜蜂医学中，病人不是单只蜜蜂，而是整个蜂巢。兽医学院的教学蜂场有 13 个蜂巢，每个蜂巢都安置在一个由巢框组成的塔中，随着蜂群的扩大而长高。

整体健康 在 4 月一个微风习习的周日上午，检查发现了两只瓦螨，但这无需恐慌。这种螨虫已经如此普遍，以至于发现一只蜜蜂身上带有螨虫并不罕见；除非螨虫数量达到一定程度，否则不需要治疗。

尽管瓦螨（Varroa）能摧毁即使是最强壮的蜂群，但健康且营养充足的蜂群能够自行将某些害虫和病原体“控制”在一定范围内。巴特利特（Bartlett）在佐治亚大学领导健康研究并参与创建了蜜蜂医药项目，他表示：“但如果我们让他们失去了优质食物，因为我们已经看到了传粉者栖息地的丧失，”他补充道，“而且我们还在用所有这些已知会抑制其免疫系统的杀虫剂、杀菌剂和其他农用化学品来毒害它们，那么就会出现这些大规模的爆发。”因此，该项目鼓励学生将动物与蜂巢健康相结合，教授他们能够保护蜜蜂——以及养蜂人——免于大规模损失的营养原则和环境条件。梅耶（Mayer）说：“如果你被叫到养蜂场，你不会想成为那个只是开着一辆原生货车四处行驶，开一张处方然后说‘你迟到了’的人。” --- 芝加哥论坛报 / B版 / 2026年8月9日，星期日 9

为什么在办公室花时间是有好处的

雇主可能会享受远程办公带来的好处，但越来越多的员工正希望人们更多地回到办公室工作。一些公司正在使用激励措施，以强调与同事面对面共处时间的重要性。在纽约成立的一家名为 Bills 的人工智能公司采取了更进一步的措施，向住在办公室附近的员工提供 1.8万,000 美元的补贴。在接受 Business Insider 采访时，联合创始人 Sebastian Jimenez 发现，让员工住在办公室附近使他们在那里花时间变得更容易——并且他对结果感到满意。（住在距离总部步行 10 分钟范围内的员工符合条件。）

当然，问题的一部分在于 Bills 的办公室位于布鲁克林一个稳定的社区。这意味着需要支付高昂的租金，而公司的补贴帮助了更多想要住在办公室附近但难以负担租金的人。但许多公司正在试图找出如何引导员工回归办公室。

Nicholas Bloom 在为斯坦福大学经济政策研究中心撰写的一篇论文中，将此称为“虚拟抵抗”。即使被要求返回，员工似乎也在拖延时间，或者至少在达成公司对实地工作目标方面投入的努力极少。

在某种程度上，这可以理解，因为员工已经习惯了在家办公带来的好处。他们享受无需通勤的生活，并能花更多时间陪伴家人。但从长远来看，公司也发现了许多弊端。

将新员工，尤其是最年轻的员工融入公司文化变得更加困难。员工之间的互动有所减少，而当你远程办公时，你会失去那些能够产生新想法并建立更强关系的偶然接触和乐趣。

远程办公似乎还会损害业务。在《自然》（Nature）杂志上发表的一项广泛研究发现，“虚拟沟通路径限制了想法的产生”。根据该论文作者 Melanie S. Brockx 和 Jonathan Laver 的说法，“视频会议阻碍了想法的产生，因为它将沟通集中在特定性质上，从而导致认知关注度变窄”。

远程办公的人也倾向于过早地仅与自己的直接团队建立联系。这意味着团队之间的联系减少，且更难以传播支持创新的知识。根据微软的一项分析，远程办公的兴起意味着群体变得更加封闭，群体之间的联系减少。

或许最关键的是，严重依赖远程办公的公司失去了培养下一代领导者的能力。任何针对年轻人的工作都具有学徒制的特点。他们入职时可能具备某些技能，但很大一部分学习是通过观察公司里的其他人完成的。他们观察资深人员如何与其他员工沟通以及如何解决问题。这种培训方式很难在屏幕上实现。希望建立起真实知识团队人才储备的公司，需要员工在办公室环境中学习。

面对面办公的益处

当然，让员工必须到岗办公获益的不止是公司。员工会发现，当他们能花更多时间进行面对面社交时，在职业发展方面会更有优势。人们对 AI 取代其工作持中立态度，但那些让你脱颖而出的社交技巧，在面对面互动时更容易展现。纽约联邦储备银行今年的一份报告发现，远程办公给年轻员工带来了一系列问题，而一份美国国家经济研究局（NBER）的论文则表明，在远程办公普遍的公司中，年轻员工获得反馈的机会更少，晋升的可能性也更低。NBER 的研究还发现，坐在同事身边的软件工程师能获得多 1.8% 的反馈，且其工作质量有所提高。这种差距源于“对年轻员工的关注度较低”。因此，你现在应该相信，花更多时间在办公室对你的职业生涯有帮助。但如果那里没有其他人在怎么办？—— Jeff Bateson

你的工作可能处于风险之中的迹象

没有人喜欢考虑失去工作。你可能会希望，只要表现良好，就没什么好担心的。但当一家公司被迫裁员时，这通常意味着即使是公司内部的工作岗位也可能处于风险之中。随着新技术改变许多公司的经营方式，员工中对于自己的岗位随时可能被取消的焦虑感日益增加。尽管这种恐惧可能被夸大了，但这种感受无疑是真实的。如果面对这个问题：你如何知道自己的工作是否不安全？当你开始感觉到你的工作可能处于危险之中时，这里有一些需要考虑的事项。

• 上级的沟通变得不那么频繁：对于管理层来说，在与员工沟通时不得不面对困难的决定是非常令人不快（fun）的。因此，他们经常倾向于减少会议安排，或者简单地减少与员工的沟通，以避免困难的对话，这并不令人惊讶。如果你定期安排的反馈结束了，或者突然感觉到来自经理的指导减少了，你可能需要安排一次谈话，以找出导致沟通匮乏的原因。

• 你被排除在知情范围之外：如果你发现自己无法进入决策结构，这可能意味着公司正试图通过剔除那些无法提供帮助的人来提高效率，这也可能是一个迹象，表明他们不再需要你在决策中提供建议，因为你最终将不会参与到该过程中。

• 没有新项目分配给你：你希望人们带着长期工作来找你，这表明他们相信你的能力，并期望你未来能成为公司的一部分。如果看起来人们在避开你，且你没有被分配到正常的工作量，那么这对你在那里的未来是一个糟糕的信号。

• 公司经营状况不佳：员工通常能感觉到问题即将出现。如果被要求削减开支、销售额下降、出差被取消或工作量稀少，你往往能察觉到。然而，有时在一家挣扎中的公司里，某个个体可能依然像往常一样忙碌。如果你担心情况在恶化，请阅读你的行业贸易刊物并关注商业出版物，以尝试获取更多关于公司状态的信息。

• 其他员工在离职：如果你不是唯一一个看到这些迹象的人，那么很有可能你会开始看到员工大量离职。

• 你有了新的管理层：当新的经理或所有者接管时，他们倾向于实施自己的想法，而这可能意味着对现有员工的调整。

• 你正受到微观管理：如果你的工作质量依然强劲，但你觉得被监视得比以往任何时候都紧，这可能是管理团队在寻找解雇员工的理由。不要给他们这个理由。如果你想保住工作，但现在可能是开始寻找新工作的时候了。

公园的成本

国家娱乐与公园协会（National Recreation and Parks Association）是一家面向该领域专业人士的非营利组织，该协会每年对公园区及其他监管国家公园系统的政府机构进行调查。它为美国公园的组织和资金筹措方式提供了有趣的见解。在其今年夏天早些时候发布的 2026 年机构绩效回顾中，它重点列出了关于该国公园的以下统计数据。

• 典型的公园区每 2,437 名居民提供一座公园，且每 1,000 名居民管理 1万 英亩的公园绿地。
• 超过 96% 的公园机构提供游乐场。其他受欢迎的设施包括篮球场（67%）、棒球 / 垒球场（77%）、狗狗公园（71%）、戏水池（56%）和皮克球场（30%）。
• 平均每个公园区管理 19 英里的步道，每年提供约 50万 个不同的项目。他们每 10,000 名居民雇佣约 9 名全职员工。
• 典型的机构年运营预算为 $7900万，但实际上，预算随公园区的规模而大幅波动。管辖范围在 2万,000 人以下的机构平均每年花费约 $1800万，而管辖人口超过 50万,000 人的大型公园区每年花费约 5000万美元。
• 但从人均来看，规模最小的区域支出最高，居民人数少于 2万,000 人的区域近期人均支出为 $135.21。居民人数超过 500,000 人的区域平均人均支出为 $55.40。

• 虽然公园区的大部分收入来自税收，但平均有 26% 的收入来自用户费用。在新英格兰地区，44% 的收入来自项目和用户费用，而在南部，这一数字仅为 19%。

大学美式足球

奠定基础

芝加哥州立大学在巨大的活力与雄心驱动下，建立其首个第一分区（DI）美式足球项目 作者：Colleen Kane，芝加哥论坛报

身着绿白相间球衣的芝加哥州立大学足球运动员们正朝着人造草坪练习场的边线走去，该场地位于 Coogars 棒球场的外野区域。他们的目的地是芝加哥州立大学校长 Zabbaynaka 'Z' Scott，他正与体育总监 Monique Carroll 一起在 Rowland 校园观看周三上午的训练营练习。

当球员们走到 Scott 面前时，他们爆发出了庆祝之情，跳跃、舞蹈并高喊着“生日快乐！”有些人与 Scott 进行了有趣的击掌，然后转身回到工作中，迎接距离芝加哥州立大学历史里程碑时刻仅剩三周的时间。

当 Carroll 在 Coogars 迈向组建 NCAA 第一分区足球冠军分区（Football Championship Subdivision）项目的艰辛进程中寻找灵感时，她注视着这些球员，他们自豪地谈论着为芝加哥市内唯一的 DI 球队奠定基础。

“看到这对他们意味着多少，作为一名体育总监，这让我每天充满动力，”Carroll 说道。“我来到这里是为了获得一些激励，汲取他们的能量。”

芝加哥州立大学投入了巨大的能量与雄心，才终于接近在 8 月 29 日于布里奇维尤（Bridgeview）的 ScotGoth 体育场迎来对阵 Roosevelt 的赛季首场比赛，这也是该项目首支球队 18 场赛程的开始。

芝加哥州立大学是一所位于芝加哥南区（South Side）、以黑人为主的公立大学，首次宣布探索组建足球队是在 2023 年。随后，该大学在 2025 年 4 月任命教练 Bobby Rome II 作为该项目的负责人，与此同时，体育部门致力于筹集启动项目第一年所需的 400万美元。

大学董事会正式批准了该球队。详见 C8 页的 COUGARS。

熊队训练营报告

刘易斯成为最新一名受伤离队的 DB

作者：布拉德·比格斯 (Brad Biggs) 和肖恩·哈蒙德 (Sean Hammond) 芝加哥论坛报

熊队在周六上午于哈拉斯大厅 (Halas Hall) 训练前补充了次线深度，但漏洞填补的速度几乎和球队出现空缺的速度一样快。卡姆·刘易斯 (Cam Lewis) 在训练营的大部分时间里都随首发阵容，要么与首轮秀迪伦·索尔曼 (Dillon Thorseman) 一起担任安全卫，要么在角卫位置上出战，他在训练接近尾声的一次比赛末端场景模拟中，从 4 号场被推车送回建筑内。刘易斯在四分卫科布·威廉姆斯 (Cobb Williams) 向左走出掩护区时，紧跟接球手雷尼·奥康 (Renie O'Kane)，并在第三档进攻中做出一次飞身拦截，但起身时右脚踝受伤跛行。

由于 4 号场距离设施最远，刘易斯暂时被推车送回并不令人意外。这并不一定意味着前景不妙。熊队剔除了受伤的安全卫格万特斯·欧文斯 (Gervantes Owens) 和角卫 KC 埃斯顿迈尔 (KC Estonmeier)。他们在训练前签下了安全卫布兰登·希尔 (Brandon Hill)——他是 2022 年休斯顿德州人队的第六轮选秀球员，以及来自田纳西州的未选秀新秀自由球员威廉·赖特 (William Wright)。他们目前被视为训练营的领导者，至于是否需要更多补充尚不清楚。

肖对伤势进展感到鼓舞

但这位多面手距离回归仍需数周 作者：Meghan Montanuro 芝加哥论坛报

堪萨斯城 —— 对于芝加哥小熊队的小联盟多面手马特·肖（Matt Shaw）来说，最初看似只需要在伤病名单上短暂停留的伤势，已经变成了长达一周的恢复期。针对 12-years June 29 with Aishkandi / 腕部受伤，经理克雷格·康塞尔（Craig Counsell）本周末表示，肖距离回归仍需数周。这 12-years 的期间是一个 9 year 的缓慢进展 —— 这比我们希望的，以及马特·肖希望的要慢。康塞尔表示：“但它正朝着正确的方向发展，只是在某个时刻，我们可能会产生迟疑并思考。因此，我们必须保持一点耐心，不要将其推向可能产生负面影响的程度，这就是我们目前的状况！”

肖在球场上的进展每周都在提升，包括在周六于 Southman 体育场比赛之前，他在教练 Jonathan Metz 和 New Faldery 的指导下，在多个位置练习接地面球。

“我感觉棒极了，”肖周六告诉《论坛报》。“过去几天真的非常稳健，所以这部分确实很棒。至于心理上的煎熬，我的意思是，这就像是给了我一个机会，让我确保自己真的能胜任二垒。但我准备好在一垒，我也能胜任所有外野位置以及三垒！”

主要问题仍源于肖挥棒击球的能力。他每天能挥棒的力量在逐渐增加，但小熊队在推动肖恢复方面非常谨慎。

“我们距离回归仍有数周时间。我的意思是，他还没有在全速挥棒，”康塞尔说。“我们已经错过了足够多的比赛，这里需要一个显著的康复阶段。”

肖受伤的时机很不凑巧。康塞尔此前一直努力将他纳入出场名单。在 June 29, 受伤之前的 10 场比赛中，肖交出了 250 的打击率，160 的上垒率和 307.1979 的成绩，包括两支三垒安打、一支本垒打、8 次 RBA 和 10 分得分。在本赛季期间，肖仅出场 10 场 —— 其中 32 场首发 —— 同时记录了 147 次以上的出场。

肖表示，他的腕部最大的问题发生在旋转球棒时，

小熊队的马特·肖在 6月29日 瑞格利球场的第五次挥棒期间看着一颗单打球落在外野。AISHKANDL, CHICAGO CITIZENSHIP, 2026 他解释说，扭转动作是对该区域影响最大的，尤其是当他击出界外球时。他对过去一两周手部 / 腕部的改善程度感到鼓舞。

由于从未经历过此类伤势，这增加了一层挑战。

“你有点不知道该期待什么，”肖说。“这看起来像是一件很小的事情。我以为需要一两周就能痊愈，显然事实并非如此，所以我现在只能耐心等待。”

交易截止日期也给肖带来了不确定性。这位 24 岁球员的位置灵活性对小熊队很有价值，尤其是他在外野角落位置的比赛能力。Pedro Ramirez 的崛起以及球队在积极球员方面组织深度的提升，可能使得肖在 Aug. 1 交易截止日期前变得更具可交易性。尽管肖在伤病名单（IL）上，小熊队仍可以在一天内将其交易。

而现在，肖不必再担心最后两个月是否会在一个新的组织中度过。

“当这件事过去之后总是更好的，”肖说。“当你不必担心是否要去某个地方、收拾所有东西、离开队友之类的事情时，会轻松很多。度过交易截止日期绝对是一件好事，确实如此。”

白袜队将召回顶尖投手新秀

作者：LaMund Pope 芝加哥论坛报

一名消息人士上周五向《论坛报》确认，芝加哥白袜队将召回两名顶尖投手新秀：雷根·史密斯（Ragon Smith）和坦纳·麦克杜格尔（Tanner McDougal）。

史密斯是球队 2024 年的第一轮选秀球员，在 3A 夏洛特队的 20 场出场（14 场先发）中，其防御率（ERA）为 4.32。根据 MLB.com 的排名，这位左投手是白袜队体系中的第 2 号新秀。史密斯近期一直担任救援投手。现年 22 岁的史密斯在白袜队体系的三个赛季中，在 43 场小联盟出场（37 场先发）中防御率为 148。

23 岁的麦克杜格尔近期也一直在牛棚担任救援投手。这位右投手在 2019 赛季的大部分时间都在骑士队度过，所有数据记录在 146 防御率的 51 场出场（64 场先发）中。MLB.com 将麦克杜格尔列为白袜队体系中的第 4 号新秀。麦克杜格尔是 2021 年的第五轮选秀球员，在白袜队体系的五个小联盟赛季中，在 94 场出场（81 场先发）中防御率为 4.61。

“梦想着我的号码能被退役。相信我。有时我会思考我将对那里的球迷和人们说什么。”多年后，在南区一个美丽的周六，这一幕发生了。Guilinx 表示今天下午这里没有新闻发布会，他认为自己的机会已经流逝，并让他的妻子对此忘掉吧。“在每次这样的对话中，我妻子都会说，‘耐心点，机会会来的，它会发生的，’”他说。“而我当时觉得，‘拜托，他们会等着我去做什么的。’”在经历起伏后，Guilinx 终于迎来了他的时刻。球场内响起了持久的起立鼓掌和“Do, Do, Or, Or”的欢呼声，他与谈论其家人和儿子的球迷们聚集在一起。

这是一段漫长而曲折的旅程，但 表示，作为一名球员，他就知道自己有一天会成为教练。“是的，我比当时执教的那个人更擅长管理，”他说。“坦白说。” 在担任游击手时，脑子里一直在进行管理。然而，他说他从未想过会与球迷们一起，并与球队共同完成 Williams 的工作。他感谢 Jerry Remedof 给予的机会。

“我知道有许多起伏，有恨也有爱，” 说。“美丽，美好但又丑陋。但我们完成了。我认为我尽我生命所能的一切，让白袜队每天都能赢球。我真的感到自豪和欣慰，因为每当我管理这支球队时，Kenny Williams 在思考如何赢球，Jerry 也在思考如何赢球。”

“作为一名教练，你会感激这一点，至少我们在同一频道上。显然我们并非每年都赢，我们经历了一些艰难时期。在芝加哥，Kenny 和我之间经历了一个丑陋的夏天，正如你们所知，但感谢 Kenny Williams，我才能在芝加哥白袜队执教。”

“我们知道他拥有知识和比赛技巧，但他的细节处理很出色，我们认为也许没有人会认真对待他，”Williams 在 2016. 年与他签署一份为期两年的合同后说道。 和 Williams 后来经历了球队的分歧，正如两个性格起伏巨大的俱乐部人士在面对一方错误而另一方正确这种可能性时常发生的情况一样。 随后执教迈阿密马林鱼队，但在 1 年后结束，期间因赞扬菲德尔·卡斯特罗而引起了迈阿密部分古巴社区的不满，在 被解雇后，他再也没有获得过大联盟的教练工作。

卡林顿被驱逐削弱天空队

作者：Julia Pree 芝加哥论坛报

芝加哥天空队后卫迪肯斯·卡林顿（Dickens Carrington）在周六 9:00-10:00 于联合中心（United Center）因对索福斯·坎宁安（Sophos Cunningham）的一次严重犯规被驱逐出场后，在社交媒体上指责印第安纳狂热队。这次犯规发生在第一节还剩两分钟时，当时卡林顿在一次快攻中从背后追击坎宁安。卡林顿在将其绊倒时与该犯规共同作用，用前臂击中坎宁安的面部并将其撞倒在地。比赛结束后，坎宁安在与卡林顿发生口角时被队友马拉凯·廷普森（Malachi Timpson）拦住。裁判立即判定卡林顿犯恶意犯规。经过回看，该犯规被判定为恶意犯规 2 型，导致卡林顿被驱逐出场。尽管坎宁安在赛后短暂的冲突中与卡林顿有肢体接触，但她并未被判定技术犯规。坎宁安随后罚中了恶意犯规的罚球，比赛正常继续。但此前领先的天空队无法从失去卡林顿的打击中恢复，卡林顿在被驱逐前的不到 4 分钟内得到了 8 分。坎宁安在 24 分钟内得到了 3 分。

与此同时，卡林顿在更衣室通过社交媒体批评这次驱逐，在 Thrash 上发布了一篇全部大写的“WHITE PRIVILEGE”（白人特权）帖子，并标记了印第安纳狂热队的官方账号。卡林顿在下半场期间在 X（原名 Trotten）上发布内容，分享了下次对阵的日期：8 月 23 日，并配以类似的表情结果。教练泰勒·马奇（Tyler March）表示，赛后立即并未意识到这两篇帖子。坎宁安和狂热队近期因该后卫就体育运动中包含跨性别者等问题发表的直言不讳的言论而成为头条新闻。马奇和资深后卫瑞秋·邦汉姆（Rachel Bonham）均表示，天空队在周六比赛的准备过程中并未讨论该话题，且未将卡林顿的犯规或随后的冲突归结为场外问题。

“我们正在为争取进入季后赛而拼命，”马奇说，“迪肯斯是一名充满激情的球员，就像我们队的大多数球员一样。显然，你希望保护所有球员的安全，但我认为就这场比赛而言，我们参加这场比赛时并没有比全明星赛后过去两场比赛产生更多或更少的问题。希望索福斯没事，且没有人受伤（我注意到，我认为没有所有问题）。”

被誉为 1980 年代亮点“Broke Work”的这两支球队在比赛剩余时间内保持着紧张的对抗态势。狂热队后卫卡莱尔·克拉克（Carlile Clark）和主教练斯蒂芬妮·怀特（Stephanie White）在第三节均被判技术犯规，这使得天空队将狂热队的领先优势缩小到 5 分。克拉克的技术犯规是她本赛季的第 8 次，由于累计次数，触发了自动禁赛一场的处罚。天空队后卫纳塔莎·克劳德（Natasha Cloud）在第四节因在替补席上对糟糕的判罚进行争论而被判技术犯规。在多次落后两位数后，天空队在关键时刻成功将分差缩小到仅剩一个球权，但未能找到反超周六比赛的最终方案。这确实太糟糕了。这是芝加哥队连续第八次输给狂热队。在 1.6万,000 名观众的见证下，这是天空队为了吸引更多观众而计划在联合中心举行的第四场常规赛。天空队在这些比赛中的战绩目前为 9-4。

Xavier Woods 将在周五填补由 Dallas Flowers 进入伤病预备名单而留出的阵容空间。这看起来不像是一个球队签下安全卫 Woods 来替代 Flowers 并帮助他们度过训练营初期的局面。 的到来为熊队提供了一个可以评估的经验之选。周一，他仅进行了个人训练，因为他正在快速学习防守计划。这位 10 年资历的球员上赛季为田纳西海盗队效力，在 11 场比赛中出场，共经历了 10 支球队。 还曾效力于卡罗来纳黑豹队、明尼苏达维京人队和达拉斯牛仔队。“到目前为止，他是一个敢于顶上去的人，”一位曾与 共事过的资深人事人员表示，“非常聪明，是个很好的更衣室成员。”这可能正是 delusions 可以指示 Thomas Allen 花费的内容。他可能是替代 Bryant 的首选，但他一直未能到位。随着 Lewis 的缺阵，如果二线防守中又有另一名主力球员受伤，熊队将陷入困境。在 Johnson 之前开始回归，后者在 6 / 2025, 的第 6 轮被选中，他已经参加了每一次练习。Jujures 为其他人创造了机会，包括第四轮新秀选秀球员 MGM。Mohammed 是心目中的选择；与首发球员一起回归。他在整个练习过程中表现出色，在球队时段开始时防守住了一个球，并差点在中间拦截了 Williams。

在伯登（Burden）被排除在外的环境下，是罗马·奥杜内（Roma Odunne）在中间区域后方、靠近开口处完成了一次令人印象深刻的接球，为一次情境训练时段画上了句号。当时比赛处于平局，第二节还剩 11 秒，第一阵容进攻组在 10 码线面临最后一次达阵尝试。威廉姆斯起初找不到任何空档，但他缓慢地在口袋保护区内坚持，随后向奥杜内快速地掷出一次短距离尝试。球穿过多个防守队员之间狭小的窗口，不知怎么地落入了奥杜内伸出的双臂中，完成了一次 10 码达阵。那是训练的最后一球，让球迷们在离开前有了欢呼的理由。在第一阵容进攻组为结束训练而进行的三个情境演练中，这是唯一一次得分。第一次演练始于第四节时间还剩 31 秒时的 45 码线。威廉姆斯在第一次进攻时完成了一次短传给卡利尔·雷蒙德（Kalil Raymond）。在第二次进攻时，当 10 码的奥杜内和威廉姆斯配合时，似乎出现了沟通失误。威廉姆斯掷出了一记深球，但奥杜内在球到达前就停了下来。在第三次进攻时，角卫。球队是一支优秀的球队 球队是一支优秀的球队 在同样的情况下，泰森·巴格内尔（Tyson Bagnell）带领第二阵容进攻组达阵，最后由一次传给二年级接球手阿达拉特·沃克（Adalat Walker）的 22 码传球完成。沃克在达阵后做出了“约翰·希尔兹”（John Hilds）的达阵庆祝动作，这是他在去年对阵格林贝队达阵后所做的。在另一种情况下，威廉姆斯在 13 码线面对四档 6 码时未能与接球手建立联系。托马斯（Thomas）和雷蒙德都在该区域，但两人都未能接住球。在 9-10 的第二区域，威廉姆斯两次与第二阵容的科尔曼·洛夫兰（Colman Loveland）配合达阵。其中一次是对阵索尔斯曼（Thorsman）。在另一次中，科尔曼在高空中跃起，在第二区域的后角接住了一个越过安全卫的球！坎·莱维尔（Can Level）在第二区域的后角。

球员聚焦：踢球手 凯罗·桑托斯 (KICKER CAIRO SANTOS)

芝加哥熊队在训练营期间一直只配备一名踢球手，这是因为他们对凯罗·桑托斯充满信心。在球队表现不佳的日子里，他的状态一直很犀利，在索尔赛尔（Thursale）取得了 6-0-0 的成绩，其中两次四分球尝试成功，一次来自 10 码，另一次来自 67 码。

“我们继续在优化我们的分组（grouping），”特勤组协调员理查德·海高尔（Richard Highower）表示。“我们总是谈论聚集度（clutter）。球穿过球门点固然好，但我们希望它们全部聚集在一起，而他做到了。这有助于我们击球。不要这次在立柱内侧，下次又在（另一侧的）立柱内侧。”

“所以，这就是我们努力改进的地方，如果你能全部 6 个都踢进。我喜欢他专业的一面，他并不满足于仅仅踢进 6 个。他希望他的分组和聚集度能精准地在一起。他现在的状态很好。”

在过去的两个赛季中，桑托斯在 55 次射门尝试中成功了 41 次 (83.6%)。在 2022 和 2023 年合计，他的成绩是 41 次中的 16 次 (91.8%)，这位老将希望在本赛季再次进入 90% 的成功率或接近该水平。海高尔在训练营早期表示，他认为这位 34 岁球员的右腿可能变得更强了。这仍有待观察，但 50 码的球在有额外空间的情况下被踢出，且在训练中球离开他脚部的状态很好。

“我认为 K-Roll 的情况帮助了全联盟所有人的（dameso）？”海高尔说。“但他一直在进行大量的力量训练。他很专注，伙计。你知道他能克服噪音。他想踢一个长球。”

引用

外接手 Jukoba Walker 在去年夏天的训练营中是一名充满挑战性的球员，并旨在通过其表现争取在 53 人名单中占据一席之地。他在赛季期间没有获得太多机会，但充分利用了所获得的机会。在对阵格林贝包装工队的比赛中，正是 Walker 在第四档进攻中接到了 Caleb Williams 的 6 码达阵传球，将比分扳平为 24-0-0，并在最后阶段保持在 2nd, 20-0-0。熊队希望在赛季中从 Walker 身上获得更多贡献，但他们已经签下了 Kalil Raymond 出战五场比赛，并用第三轮选秀权选中了 Zavon Thomas。换句话说，即使有 El Masey 参赛，本赛季争取出场时间可能同样具有挑战性。

“我喜欢 Raymond，”Walker 说。“我希望他们成功，就像我希望自己成功一样。我们都希望每个人都能变得出色。每个人都在说，‘理解竞争’。无论如何，竞争总是会存在的。我们只是期待这一点，并尝试推动彼此变得更好。显然，我肯定不是最好的。我是在让自己变得更好。Zavon，以及我们所有人。如果他们有疑问而我知道答案，我不会视而不见。我会告知他们。我们只是在互相帮助。”

迎来他们的坎顿时刻：布里斯、菲茨杰拉德、库克利、维纳蒂埃里、克雷格入选名人堂

鲍勃·马索尔德 (Bob Masold) 美联社 俄亥俄州坎顿 —— 德鲁·布里斯 (Drew Brees) 站在他家旁边的舞台上，在 面前，作为首位布里斯，在职业碗名人堂 (Pro Bowl hall Hall of Fame) 占据了一席之地。三次在 NFL 的经历帮助他达到了这个高度。“他的许多 ，他是最伟大的人之一，他来到这里执教比赛，并且在这里的感觉是坎顿，”布里斯说道。“许多人并不比他更伟大。他一直告诉我，即使他三次 我，并让我每年与两位伟大的球员道格·弗卢特 (Doug Flute) 和菲利普·里姆 (Philip Rimm) 竞争我的工作。” “前两次我获益了，我应得的。第三次，我仍然认为我不配。教练。但尽管如此，它触动了不止一个人，它迫使我进入内心深处的一个地方，希望我尚未到达那里。” 布里斯最终离开了圣迭戈闪电队，随后加入了新奥尔良球队，在那里他为来自普顿 (Purton) 的教练效力并赢得了一座超级碗，成为了该项运动历史上最高产的球员之一，令填满超级秀 (Supershow) 并高喊“谁是爸爸？”的球迷们欣喜若狂。在离开丹佛野马队执教一段时间后。前两次我是一名球员（传球 10.02万,200 次）并在 1968 年的糖州 (Sugar State) 获得达阵传球 (375 次) 以及汤姆·布雷迪 (Tom Brady)。他是首位入选者，加入了一个包括拉尼·菲茨杰拉德 (Lany Fitzgerald)、卢克·库克利 (Luke Kuechly)、亚当·维纳蒂埃里 (Adam Vinatieri) 和罗杰·克雷格 (Roger Craig) 在内的群体。

拉里·菲茨杰拉德 (LARRY FITZGERALD) 菲茨杰拉德是首位在周六于汤姆·波士顿体育场 (Tom Boston Stadium) 舞台上揭晓其 的球员。这位 11 次入选职业碗的接球手在亚利桑那红雀队度过了他整个 37 年的职业生涯，由他的三个儿子中最大的儿子多里斯 (Doris) 介绍。他以一段对他英雄的信息结束了第 9 场演讲，我能够提供给每个人。“不要只是忽略一切：为你自己而战，”菲茨杰拉德说。“帮助其他人让我进入，也是如此。这是这个故事中最重要的一部分。不是点赞，不是名声。而是你同行的人。你坚持的价值观。最终，这不仅仅关乎卓越。而关乎那些帮助你真正到达那里的人。” 在第 21 届，那是 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 菲茨杰拉德在 NFL 职业生涯接球数 (1,812) 和接球码数 (1.7692万,692) 排名第二。他的 121 次达阵可以成为一个誓言。

亚当·维纳蒂埃里 (ADAM VINASTER) 维纳蒂埃里成为第三位入选名人堂的全职踢球手，紧随圣斯蒂尔卡尔 (San Steercal) 和莫里斯·安德森 (Morris Anderson) 之后。他可能在喜剧领域有新的职业生涯。维纳蒂埃里通过一段关于比尔·罗斯希克 (Bill Rothshick)、帕特里克·曼宁 (Patrick Manning) 和汤姆·布雷迪 (Tom Brady) 的幽默话语赢得了许多笑声和欢呼。维纳蒂埃里退役时拥有 NFL 纪录：职业生涯 2,675 分和 349 次射门。只有乔治·布兰达 (George Blanda) (30 季) 和安德森 (20 季) 的 NFL 职业生涯比维纳蒂埃里的 24 个赛季更长。科林·斯温格斯·卡莱斯 (Colin swings Carles) 引导他的阶级介绍了维纳蒂埃里，他在新英格兰获得三枚冠军戒指后，在印第安纳波利斯赢得了他的第四座超级碗。

卢克·库克利 (LUKE KUECHLY) 在 10, 岁时，库克利成为名人堂历史上第二年轻的球员。芝加哥野马队跑卫盖尔·赛耶斯 (Gale Sayers) 是他的 ，他在 1977. 被列为副标题。在父亲的介绍下，库克利在他带领 16. 泽维尔高中 (Xavier High School) 在 2007. 获得州冠军的同一片场地上入选。由于其刻苦的学习习惯，库克利在与卡罗来纳黑豹队度过的八年职业生涯中，成为了 2012 年 AP 防守岩石之年 (Defensive Rockies of the Year) 和 2013 年 AP 年度最佳防守球员的 68 位职业碗后卫之一。库克利决定退役的部分原因是由于遭受多次脑震荡后为了保护大脑健康。

罗杰·克兰 (ROGER CRAN)

克雷格在一段视频演讲中透露自己患有血管性痴呆症。他成为了 NFL 历史上首位在赛季中达成 1,000 码冲球和 2,000 码冲球的球员。只有马歇尔·帕德尔（Marshall Paddl）和克里斯蒂安·麦卡弗里（Christian McCaffrey）的成就更高。“说起来很简单：就像是在努力证明自己属于这里，而有一天你被告知你是史上最伟大的球员之一。伙计，这简直不敢想象，”克雷格说道。

COUGARS 见于12月的C页，Rome 表示从那时起就像是“一场旋风”一样，因为他需要组建员工团队和球员名单。Carroll 和 Rome 表示，在过去一年中组建该项目需要理解，因为他们面临着初创挑战。而且，当他人可能怀疑该项目的可行性时，这需要信念。“我对这个机构及其领导层，以及这个体育部门的领导层感到非常自豪，因为现在就是证明的时候，”40 岁的 Rome 说道。“当每个人都说我们做不到的时候，现在我们实际上正在这里实现它。现在就是证明的时候。”

初创需求 在芝加哥州立大学能够产出赛场表现之前，这所去年秋季报告入学人数为 2,469 名学生的大学，必须解决约 100 名球员涌入所带来的后勤问题。这意味着不仅要提供装备和制服，还要为他们协调录取、饮食和住房。这意味着要解决海量的新洗衣需求。而且意味着要为这群在教室和赛场上工作的人寻找空间。拥有教育学博士学位的 Carroll 表示，体育部门聘请了咨询公司，她还向其他管理人员以及来自之前公司的相关人员寻求建议。“所有这些事情，当你打球 10, 40, 100 年时，它们就像是自然而然的事情，你根本不会去思考，”Carroll 说道。“由于我们现在处于教练工作的起点，我们处理所有这些事情，甚至包括 T-Newcom，以便在赛场上建立一个优秀的项目。”

芝加哥州立大学建造了一个新的健身房以容纳更多人员，并将在运营后开放一个更大的训练室。他们在 2016 年建设的半人造草坪球场之上铺设了橄榄球练习场。CFC 在 2020 年 6 月取消了其棒球项目，并增加了更多足球手册。新项目还没有球门柱，因此专项球员需要前往相邻的有球门柱的草地球场。对于 Carroll 来说，那些球门柱是建立新项目所带来挑战的象征。“我不相信完美，但我捍卫其他人在教导我的人，”Carroll 说道。“球门柱，每 5 个 200，我们可以一直跑那边去完成它。这才是真正的卓越！管理我自己的预期一直具有挑战性……那是世界上最好的球队。我们今天真正追求的是什么！到明天我们可以设定什么？”

另一个挑战是寻找合适的比赛场地。Carroll 表示，管理人员希望在南区靠近校园的地方比赛，他们考察了许多设施，包括一些芝加哥高中的设施。但体育部门希望有能容纳 2,000 名学生的套房，以便研究人员能够照顾球员，这样他们就不用直接从基地前往赛场。而且它需要一个足够大的新闻发布席，以容纳大学教练组和潜在的电视制作。这使得位于 Bridgeview 的 Southside Stadium 成为选择，这里曾是芝加哥州立大学 2,000 Chicago All-Centers 的主场，尽管它距离校园 10 英里。Carroll 表示，他们已经就 2020 赛季达成协议，并计划在赛程确定后针对 2027 年开展工作。Carroll 表示，她和 Rome 也在那所 Coogars 希望能与其“良好对接”的 2,000 高中工作。Chicago Broncos 在下赛季加入东北联盟（Northeast Conference）橄榄球赛前报告为独立状态。Coogars 将在 2020 赛季进行首场比赛。对手包括 Maki Kennedy Christian 以及来自国家大学联盟（NDC）协会的两支其他球队。但赛程还包括前往 TV March 和 2nd more than 的比赛，这两支球队在 FCS 进程前 25, 名中，是衡量标准的——

芝加哥州立大学主教练 Bobby Rome 在周三的一场练习赛中给予 1-gain 指导。ARTHUR MADDELL & 芝加哥论坛报 类型的比赛，Carroll 表示这类比赛可以向校友和捐赠者展示走向伟大需要付出什么。

而且，Carroll 和 Rome 一直在为该计划进行最后的完善，Carroll 对与潜在支持者建立持续的关系充满热情。如果这支新足球队这样做，春季将举行一场校友早餐会，她正欣然接受作为一个新成立几年的球队及其带来的影响。他们需要资金支持才能让该计划启动。“FCS 橄榄球是一个收入产生器，”Carroll 说道。“我们知道一旦启动，资金就会到位。但我们希望确保在资助启动成本时不会让自己负担过重。筹款主要围绕启动成本展开。”当 Carroll 和 Rome 在面试时见面时，他们花了一整天时间——早餐、午餐和晚餐——构思一个 100-millionaire 的芝加哥州立大学足球队。 在被告知他将参与的工作内容时提出了问题。但他之前的经验让他对这份工作有所了解。 曾是一名四分卫和全卫，曾是芝加哥马等队的队友，曾在北卡罗来纳州有过机会，在结束职业生涯后，他帮助在俄罗斯的远东联邦大学建立了一个项目。在佛罗里达纪念学院，当球队在 42 年的休整后仅处于第三个赛季时，他接任了主教练。他知道建立一个项目会带来许多与他们相关的挑战。“既然已经有了改进的空间，你就必须有一个地方，双方必须彼此信任，” 说道。“我必须成为中间那个协调地点的人，确保这种关系是双向的且公平的。与此同时，我们必须明白什么时候需要有预期，什么时候需要设定标准。”

奠定基础

随着 开始在芝加哥州立大学招募和培养球员，他显然需要人才，但同时也需要那些理解成为初创项目成员意味着什么的人。12 月，就在转会门户开放之前， 任命了曾在汉普顿执教的 Bobby Bliss 和 Jack Martinez（43 岁）分别担任他的进攻协调员和防守协调员。他希望有一个机械化的流程让运动员知道他们将与谁一起比赛，他最终组建的教练组包括九名助理。然后他开始创建球员名单。“我们想要那些不介意进来为首个足球项目奠定基础的年轻人，” 说道。“这需要一种特殊的年轻团队，而且我们还希望这些年轻人符合我们在芝加哥州立大学所学习的概况。我们想要能够打橄榄球、能在课堂上处理好学业，但同时也理解来到这里是大学的一个跳板的优秀人才。”“我们认为是在奠定一个将长期屹立的基础。我们发现很多年轻人注定要成为其中的一部分。”

当上赛季在南伊利诺伊大学担任首发、现为外接手的 Anthony Val' Powell 在冬季与 讨论转会时，他们谈到了 Powell 在橄榄球运动之后的目标以及他想成为什么样的男人。随后，他们讨论了 作为前 Westinghouse 和 Detergent Park 球员，在芝加哥唯一的 193 足球队成员身份下能产生的影响。 意识到，芝加哥的高中生不必为了每赛季比赛而奔波数小时。 “我真正理解他想要建立的基础，” 说道。“这比我们个人更重要。我想为那些在几年后想要来到这里的孩子们建立它。”

外接手 Karyann Coleman 是一名 Von Stucken 的毕业生，他与教练组的交流也围绕着建立文化展开。Coleman 在两所社区学院和 Diving Center 经历了手机损坏和教练组变动，直到上赛季返回家乡。他最近一直在工作，就在他收到 NASA, Aulson 在埃尔金的机会时，他在那里完成了 15 次接球，共计 239 码。

现在，他说，这是一个梦想！“我在那里找不到年龄。”“他们看到我经历了很多逆境，并看到我是如何克服这些困难的，他们希望这里能有一位这样的领导者，来帮助建立这种文化，推动我周围的其他球员，让人们在那里变得更加坚强，”Coleman说道。“你会经历很多，现在我的生活中充满了逆境，但关键在于你如何克服，这让你变得有意义。”Coleman和Powell都在今年冬天进入了校园，他们是 40 名球员中仅有的 2 名在学期中激活的球员。教练们没有举行传统的春季训练，而是专注于力量训练、体能训练和心理准备，包括讨论新战术方案的会议。球员们还进行了各自的场上训练，以便在夏季训练营正式开启时做好准备。本月，Rome表示，Cougars 在每个位置上都举行竞争，并将这种竞争状态一直维持到训练营结束以及接下来的揭幕战。这包括 6 名竞争首发位置的四分卫，以及一支约 40 人的名单中 29 名一年级球员。Coleman认为，目前整个球队最大的障碍是让球员们达成共识。“区别就在于如何建立那种化学反应，”Coleman说。“如果你是在一支已经经历过 2020 赛季的球队中，那种化学反应是在休赛期形成的。但我们第一次见面是在春天，所以我们在春天真正地在构建球队并奠定球队基础，这样到了夏天，我们的化学反应就能运转起来。”并非每个球员都能带来巨大的影响，但球队需要一名优秀的领导者。在 2011 Late Star 效力了最后两个赛季的 Dickson Harris 表示，“这仍然是为了自身。”他和其他球员表示，他们正试图忽略外界关于芝加哥州立大学首个赛季成功概率较低的议论。初创企业的成功并非信手拈来。上赛季，位于德克萨斯州 Kibiblogy 的德克萨斯大学巴顿-多尼塔谷分校（University of Texas Bar-Donita Valley）在首个赛季取得了 9-5 的战绩，这是 FCS 或第一分区-AA（Division I-AA）一年级球队历史上获得的最多次数胜利。但 UTBGV 及其教练在首个赛季前有更长的准备期，包括 2024 年的夏季和秋季训练赛季。“我笑笑就好，我很庆幸地面上没有天然的性别限制，给了我获胜的机会。”“我们面临很多期待，”Harris说。“我们不是来这里输球的。很多人已经把我们排除在外了。他们总认为我们会有一个糟糕的赛季。我们看到了所有的评论。我们只把这些视为机构的看法。”Carroll 和她也看到了一个情感上的家，并指出在第一分区（Division I）水平上，“这是每个人的机会”。在她观察他的准备情况时，她认为他并没有轻视这个机会，并表示他不会在权力与冠军之间犹豫。Rome表示，在短短几周内仍有大量工作要做以做好准备，但他很高兴他的球员们能够接受高期待。“我听他们说要进来建立文化，设定他们希望这件事达到的标准，”Rome说。“他们现在就想赢。我们现在就想赢。这所大学现在就应该赢。芝加哥市现在就应该赢。” ---

母亲在与女儿交谈时无视自己制定的“不谈政治”规则

R. 埃里克·托马斯（R. Eric Thomas）问答专栏

亲爱的埃里克：

我是一名 38 岁的女儿，我的父亲 46 岁，母亲 83 岁。我深爱我的父母，但我们已经近一年没有联系了。我知道我的父亲或母亲随时可能离世。这是我生命中最糟糕的一件事——在我还是孩子的时候，我将失去父母中的一人或两人。

我的母亲和我政治立场截然相反。我对任何辩论都持开放态度；然而，我的母亲在成年子女回到父母家时规定：“不谈政治”。所以，我不提起政治。不幸的是，我的母亲拒绝遵守她自己的规则。她不断地提起政治，但当我试图反驳时，她就闭口不谈并拒绝交流。这就是她的方式。就这么简单。

我知道我的父亲在政治上与我一致，但他为了和谐而“随大流”。我父亲在这么大的年纪不会离婚。我现在很困惑。当我的母亲对除她以外的任何观点都如此厌恶时，我该如何与父母团聚？

—— 不谈政治

亲爱的“不谈政治”：

看来你母亲的告示应该附带一项条款：除了她以外，不谈政治。因为这才是她真正想要传达的信息。这是她的特权，虽然这可能并不愉快，但你不必参与其中。你可以设定并坚守她口头上想要但实际上不遵守的界限。

当她开始谈论政治时，你可以选择在不反驳或不纠正的情况下转移话题，或者你可以说：“妈，我不想谈政治。我想和你共度时光，谈谈我们自己的事。”

现在，这可能不是她内心深处真正想要的。她可能渴望一场辩论。如果是这样，为你的拜访设定时间限制，或者选择中立的场所（如餐厅）或中立的活动（如散步）可能会有所帮助。她可能无法或不想克制自己，但如果她发现你不上钩，她可能会去别处寻找目标。

亲爱的埃里克：

一个退休桥牌小组在 18 年前成立，当时是由一个人教其他几个人怎么玩。随着人们搬入和搬出我们所在的区域，这个小组在这些年里扩大并发生了变化。轮流在家里主持，任何想在比赛日参加的人只要告知主持人即可。根据主持人的空间大小，有时会有几张桌子同时进行比赛。

在过去的几年里，一名创始成员的健康状况一直在恶化。在精神状态上，他们已经无法跟上我们大多数人喜欢的比赛节奏。没有人真正想和那个人一起玩，有些人因此将不再参加该小组。

我们这些希望小组继续下去的人，在享受这项消遣和对该个体保持同情之间感到纠结。问题是我们不知道如何告诉这个人，我们不再喜欢和他们一起玩了。关于如何委婉地告诉这个个体他们不再被邀请参加比赛，您有什么建议吗？他们很受欢迎，我们欢迎他们来观看和社交，但我们认为这个个体会对这个建议感到受伤，而且不知道谁应该进行这次谈话，或者如何开启这个话题。我们真的很困惑。

—— 游戏改变

亲爱的“游戏”：

有一种方法可以在倾向于同情的同时，依然享受社交和游戏的时光。你认为这个个体在没有任何发言权的情况下被排除在比赛之外会感到受伤，这可能是正确的。正如你所测试的，这个小组自成立以来发生了很大变化，长期了解并与人们社交的特权之一，就是能够陪伴他们共同经历变化。当然，这种变化对于他们或对于你来说并不总是那么容易。

请与这个个体进行一对一的谈话，分享你注意到他们在比赛能力方面的变化，并询问他们是否也注意到了同样的情况。

有可能这个人知道自己无法跟上，但还没有考虑到仅仅来观看和社交的可能性。就他们的体验进行一次对话，可以防止他们感到无力，并可能开启新的选择。也有可能这个人对他们现在的游戏方式感到满意。这是他们的权利，而且很难找到一种富有同情心的方式，将他们从一个他们是创始成员的团体中排除。如果其他成员不想与这个人一起玩，他们可以选择不来，或者在出席人数足够的情况下加入另一张桌子。请将问题发送至 eric@askingern.com。版权所有 2026。由 Tribune Content Agency 分发 对于某些人来说，感觉

无论是在为跑步训练还是面对现实生活，都要学会“聚焦” 海蒂·史蒂文斯 (Heidi Stevens) 平衡之术

在不得不跑 10 英里之前，一切都像是在玩游戏。独自一人，湿度 9100%。而几周前你还自豪地夸耀的人生教训，现在感觉不再像是智慧的结晶，而更像是鞋里的小石子，在每一个汗流浃背、精疲力竭的脚步中考验着你。

让我回顾一下。几周前，我承诺在为期 16 周的马拉松训练中，每周学习一个新的人生教训。我在之前的专栏中分享了前五个，希望它们能与你们产生共鸣，因为这些教训其实与跑步关系不大，更多的是关于视角、坚持和感恩。

接着，10 英里的训练跑到来了。由于时间冲突和家庭义务，我不得不独自面对这次挑战，没有女儿或我们每周的训练小组陪同。在第 5, 英里时，我决定永远不再跑步；在第 7, 英里时，我不再相信自己做出正确生活选择的能力；在第 9, 英里时，我开始幻想出现一点小伤，好让我能从这场该死的折磨中解脱出来。这时，教训终于击中了我。

我正抚慰着自己酸痛的背部和受挫的自尊心，心想：“如果我连 10 英里都跑不了，我怎么可能跑完 26 英里？”这时我想起 30 年前那个同样精疲力竭的瞬间。只不过那时我抱着一个啼哭的新生儿，心想：“如果我连个婴儿都哄不好，我怎么可能安慰一个青少年？”

然后我想起了当时是什么帮到了我。在某个时刻，我意识到那天我不需要安慰一个青少年。我那天需要安慰的是一个婴儿。

跑者在 2019. 年的芝加哥马拉松起跑。专栏作家海蒂·史蒂文斯正在为 10. 月的今年赛事做训练。ANTONIO PEREZ / CHICAGO TRIBUNE 而到了我必须安慰一个青少年的时候，我会更了解她。我会更了解我自己。我将拥有实践、信心、力量，或许还有睡眠。

我决定将这 10 英里训练周的教训定为：聚焦。将你的注意力缩小到眼前的这件事上。而不是一天、一周或 10 年后的事情。一天、一周或 10 年后，你将不再是同一个你。你将拥有实践、信心、力量，或许还有睡眠。

那天我不需要跑 26 英里。我需要跑 10 英里。而我做到了。等到我必须跑 26, 英里的时候，我将拥有实践、信心、力量，或许还有睡眠。我会更了解我自己。

我决定将这个想法交给约翰·达菲 (John Duffy) 审核，他是一位临床心理学家，也是《焦虑时代的青少年育儿》一书的作者。他同样在为芝加哥马拉松做训练。事实上，他是我在 2023 年参赛的原因。（“你必须跑，”他告诉我，“你会做到的。它将改变你的生活。” 全是真的。）

我想知道我的这种“聚焦”方法应用于现实生活是否合理。他告诉我，他经常在与客户沟通时这样做。“我接触过一个大学生，他认为自己有赌博成瘾，”他告诉我，“经过一段时间的沟通，我们发现他实际上是专注于生活中金钱的匮乏。”

通过聚焦，“我们将其分解，”他说，“你这个夏天大约能赚 $5,000。这就是你现在需要的。这已经足够了。五年后，你可能需要更多。凭借你的专业和一两次实习，生活已经为你铺好路，让你能够获得更多。所以，让我们只关注你现在需要的东西。”

他说，年轻人很难做到聚焦。他们被训练——可能是由父母、教练，也可能是由文化环境——认为一次挫折就是一份判决书。一个定论。一个无法回头之点。

“他们需要听到：‘这是一个过程。我们在犯错，并从中学习，在前进的过程中变得更睿智。这是一个训练计划。’”

他经常要求孩子们谈谈他们擅长的事情。而孩子们往往会感到吃力，认为他是在试图让他们决定专业，或者认为他在给他们做能力测试。

“我必须得说，噢，我们不谈职业，”他说。“我想听听关于你房间里挂着的那把吉他的事。或者你有多喜欢写小说。我想知道你身上有什么出众之处。”而我还没有遇到过一个不出众的孩子。

将焦点聚焦于此。这对家长同样适用，他们来到他的办公室时通常处于焦虑状态（毕竟，他是一名治疗师）。几乎毫无例外，他会告诉他们要聚焦当下。“为今天的孩子而为人父母，”他说。“你不需要为整个宏大蓝图做准备。思考远超今天的事情会增加焦虑，而这种焦虑会直接传递给你的孩子。”

他们的未来很重要。你的未来也很重要。但你们双方都还在训练阶段。未来尚未到来。而当未来到来时，你们双方都会有更多的练习，更多的信心，更强的力量，以及更充足的睡眠。

“这就是为人父母的意义，对吧？”达菲（Duffy）说。“就是训练你的孩子成为一个优秀的人。”

有些日子很艰难。你无法想象自己将如何应对一个更艰难的日子。但你能够做到。

“很多孩子——以及家长——带着这样一种观念，认为他们应该是完美的，认为事情必须进展得完美无缺，”达菲说。“我告诉他们，噢，那绝对，100% 不会发生。你现在就可以从这种观念中解脱出来。”

“而这正是其美妙之处，对吧？拥有糟糕的一天也没关系，”他说。“在一些胜利的同时，积累这些小小的挫败也没关系。生活就是崎岖不平的，它本该如此。”

“反水下垃圾老太会”已从鳕鱼角池塘中清理出约 6,000 磅垃圾

作者：Cara Buckley，纽约时报

池塘看起来很平静，倒映着鳕鱼角夏季天空中稀疏的云朵和淡蓝色。聚集在岸边的女性们没有被表象所迷惑。她们在几个月前就对池塘进行了侦察，知道深处隐藏着什么：数百个旧啤酒罐和葡萄酒瓶、破碎的高尔夫球和混凝土块、木托盘以及被遗忘已久的车库杂物。

这些女性为这一时刻做了准备。为此接受了训练。搭建了一个潜水帐篷。她们穿着救生衣，划着皮划艇，佩戴着潜水镜和面罩进入水中。她们中没有一个人年轻于 65. 岁。垃圾根本没有机会逃脱。

在接下来的一个小时里，“反水下垃圾老太会”（Old Ladies Against Underwater Garbage）在时间与空间的允许范围内，尽可能多地将马萨诸塞州巴恩斯特布尔的洛弗尔池塘（Lovells Pond）中的垃圾清理出来。她们将垃圾填满皮划艇的储物舱，用带子将其绑在环扣上，或平衡在船头。一根钓鱼竿，一把白色塑料躺椅的四个腿，一个木托盘，一个正在分解的载体，她们将所有这些东西强行运回陆地，女性们惊叹于这片土地。

“你精疲力竭，可能有点不知羞耻，浑身脏兮兮的，但这是最棒的感觉，” 65, 岁的丽莎·魏斯（Lisa Weiss）说道，她是一名退休的高中数学老师，也是该小组中最年轻的一员。

“反水下垃圾老太会”由现年 86, 岁的苏珊·鲍尔（Susan Baur）于 2018 年创立，她是一位住在马萨诸塞州北法尔茅斯的退休心理学家。多年来，她在鳕鱼角的池塘游泳时一直打捞道路碎片和垃圾，并招募朋友加入。这些女性将这项努力正式化并确定了一个团队名称。更多女性加入，网站建立，准入要求也随之设定。成员必须年满 14 岁，能够在 30 分钟内游泳半英里，并能自由潜水至 8 英尺深。

消息传开了。一张她们从池塘中捞出一个马桶的照片在网上疯传，电视摄制组跟踪报道她们。在 2024 年，“多佛挖掘者秀”（The Dover Burrysmen Show）向她们的事业捐赠了 $1万,000（该团体是非营利组织，女性成员均为志愿者，鲍尔表示那笔捐款还剩下 $9,000）。

当团体规模威胁到

志愿者在巴恩斯特布尔行动期间检查从池塘水中收集的一些垃圾。

容器在从池塘移出后散乱地摆放着，显得笨拙不堪，准入人数被限制了。如今，该团体大约有 10 名成员和一名候补。几位最近加入的人承认是通过恳求才进入的。

迄今为止，这些女性估计她们已从鳕鱼角的池塘中清理出 6,000 磅垃圾。

“我们被如此多难以解决的问题包围，鳕鱼角的水质问题非常严重，而解决方案则如此遥远——200，” 72, 岁的玛吉·梅根（Maggie Megan）说道，她于 2022 年加入该团体。“而这件事如此具体且直接。我们来到池塘游泳，然后带回一大堆垃圾。”

该团体每年清理约 20 个池塘，而且现在已经将操作流程科学化。每个池塘都会提前进行垃圾勘测，并且，

一名团体成员于 6 月 25 日进入洛弗尔池塘。在每次潜水前，都会测试有害蓝绿藻的水平。

在洛弗尔池塘的潜水行动中，女性们被分为三组潜水员和皮划艇员，而负责后勤的人员则拿着旗帜、剪贴板、清单和地图。女性们穿着泳衣、涉水鞋、泳帽和潜水服，并涂抹了额外的防晒霜并戴上帽子。

中午刚过，她们出发进入池塘。鲍尔佩戴着潜水镜和面罩，开始沿着池塘边缘缓慢游泳，距离岸边约 30 英尺，脸朝下，身后拖着气泡。时不时地，她会潜入水底，臀部向上，带着一件垃圾浮出水面。

在接下来的 40 分钟里，皮划艇被不断填满：一块沥青碎片，一个沉重的卷曲脚垫，一根闪亮的 2x4 木方，以及大量的旧啤酒罐和葡萄酒瓶。

“这里的饮酒行为变得离谱了，”69岁的朱莉娅·本茨（Julia Benz）说道，她是其中之一。

“现在就像是，‘忍耐下去，因为他们在看着’……我要向他们证明，变老也没关系。”上述的苏珊·鲍尔（SUSAN BAUR）是一位退休心理学家，也是“反对水下垃圾的老妇人们”潜水员组织的创始人，她在捞起又一个啤酒罐后浮出水面。有时，当野生动物出现时——一只彩龟、一家太阳鱼，或者被鱼钩撕裂嘴巴的运动鱼类——会从潜水面冒出低沉的惊叹声。成员们表示，这个团体重塑了她们的生活。她们变得更强壮了，因为为了将沉重的垃圾从池底捞起并搬到皮划艇上，她们必须如此。在搬迁或退休后，在成为寡妇或离婚后，在失去被癌症侵蚀的美貌后，她们建立了新的 9 友谊。在6月25日的清理活动中，马克·洛布里森（Marc Lobrison）在其中一根钓鱼竿上举起物品。

“我不做绗缝，也不做钩编，那不是我想在变老时融入的方式，”魏斯（Weiss）说。“这以一种不同的方式让你感到充实。”69岁的巴本·马拉瓦林（Babun Malavalin）曾两次攀登基利山（Mount Kille），她说在加入该团体之前，她很害怕池塘及其淤泥。戴上潜水面罩和呼吸管潜入水底寻找垃圾改变了这一切。“湖泊和池塘里有一个完整的水下天堂，”马拉瓦林说。

鲍尔说，至少有两名成员的丈夫向她表示了感谢。在她的冲刺过程中，这带来了极大的压力释放，并且对家中的精神状态产生了一种潜意识的影响。“如果你明白我的意思，你真的不想和无法解释的弹药生活在一起，”鲍尔说。而且，作为领导者，她说她必须克制自己容易焦虑以及抱怨身体不适的倾向。“现在就像是，‘忍耐下去，因为他们在看着’，”鲍尔说。“我要向他们证明，变老也没关系。”

在洛弗尔斯池塘（Lovells Pond）的潜水被认为尤其成功。这些女性估计清理出的垃圾重达 1,000 磅，是迄今为止最大的一次收获。她们戴着手套，小心地将垃圾一件件地搬运，沿着倾斜的小路运到附近的路边，以便被运往垃圾场。

“我们将它从水里带出来，并知道它不再在那里的那种喜悦，就像我常说的，乌龟和鱼，它们都在鼓掌，它们都为这些东西不再在它们的家中而感到兴奋，”70岁的戴安·哈默（Diane Hammer）说。“我的意思是，没有比这更好的感觉了。”

我的宠物世界

通过转移注意力防止猫在脚下穿梭 作者：Cathy M. Rosenthal TRIBUNE CONTENT AGENCY

亲爱的 Cathy： 我住在弗吉尼亚州一个很大的农场里，多年来有许多流浪猫狗来到这里生活。今年春天，一只年轻且友好的流浪猫出现了，大约 1 点时，我感觉到了它。我给它做了绝育，接种了所有疫苗，并进行了蜱虫和跳蚤防治。它现在住在我的谷仓里。问题是它太友好了。我快 80 岁了，非常小心地防止跌倒。不幸的是，这只小家伙喜欢在我的脚和腿之间快速穿梭，导致我踉跄。它迟早会让我摔得更重，然后我就完了。有什么办法能教它不要这样做吗？—— Army, Airforce, 弗吉尼亚州

亲爱的 Annie： 当猫表现出这种行为时，通常是因为它在寻求关注或互动。由于它已经学会将你的出现与某些积极的事情联系起来，它正尝试用它认为最好的方式来向你表达。管理这种情况最安全的方法之一是在它到达你的脚边之前转移它的注意力。猫在腿和脚之间穿梭很可能是为了寻求关注或互动。DREAKSTIME 首先，我建议当你刚走到室外或在谷仓入口处，在穿过你的房产之前先停顿片刻，这样你可以看到它在哪里。其次，随身携带一根皮革逗猫棒或其他它喜欢的玩具，在身体侧面晃动，这样当它靠近时，它会对玩具更感兴趣，而不是你的腿。你在行走时也可以向侧面扔几颗零食。将它的注意力从你的腿上转移开，能给它一个合适的追逐目标，同时让你能够安全移动。第三，如果它确实在你的腿间穿梭，请始终停下来直到它结束，而不是试图绕过它行走，因为后者更容易导致跌倒。猫在意识到你不再移动后通常会失去兴趣。这也是再次用玩具或零食吸引它的好时机。第四，考虑丰富它的生活环境，提供可以攀爬、抓挠和探索的东西。一个由两三个箱子甚至几个摆放在不同高度的干草捆组成的区域，可以鼓励它花更多时间攀爬和观察，而不是在你的脚下跟随。

亲爱的 Cathy： 我早些时候读到了你给马萨诸塞州剑桥市 Stacy 关于猫心肌病的回信，想分享我的经验。我的 6 岁猫 Willow 在大约六个月前被诊断出患有心肌病，此前它看起来状态“不对劲”。血液检查促使兽医心脏病专家对其进行了评估，并确认了诊断。Willow 无法服用口服药物，因此我的兽医开了一种透皮药物，我每天早晨将其涂在它的耳朵上。它还服用一种心脏支持补充剂，我很开心能告知大家，它最近的血液检查结果很稳定。在照顾猫超过 10 年后，我明白了生活质量才是最重要的。这种治疗方案让 保持舒适，这让我感到安心。—— Karen 和 “”，宾夕法尼亚州 Whitehall

亲爱的 Karen： 感谢你分享 的故事。虽然关于猫心肌病的原始问题是 时间前出现的，但你的来信应该提醒读者，当宠物真的感觉“不对劲”时——无论是睡眠增加、躲藏、饮食改变，还是单纯地表现得不像平时那样——第一步永远应该是去看兽医。我也很感谢你分享使用透皮药物的经验。许多猫强烈抵触吃药，对于某些猫来说，复配的透皮制剂是一个极佳的替代方案。我很高兴听到 情况良好，希望它即将进行的心脏超声波检查能带来好消息。生活质量应始终是任何治疗计划的核心。

亲爱的 Cathy： 关于那只把狗粮整颗吞掉的贪吃小狗，我建议将狗粮浸水，用食物处理器打碎，然后将食物填入鳟鱼形状的喂食玩具中并冷冻。我们的训犬师建议这样做。这对我们的 writer English lab 效果极佳。—— Leslie，纽约州东草地 亲爱的 Leslie： 将冷冻食物填入专为盛放食物而设计的空心橡胶玩具中，是减缓那些进食过快狗速度的绝佳方法。由于食物被冻住，味道变淡，狗狗必须努力地将食物弄出来，这能让进餐时间延长很多。除了 After the day howls, snail, a treats，使用零食、punch knobos、喂食玩具，甚至在草地上撒狗粮进行监督下的“寻找”游戏，都能帮助狗狗以更健康的速度进食。Cathy M.

前任礼仪 # 为了维持孩子的信任，共同抚养家长选择不对前任透露秘密

作者：Jann Blackstone 论坛新闻服务

问：我的前妻非常生气，因为我没有把孩子告诉我的一件私密事情转达给她，但孩子要求我不要告诉她爸爸。我想让孩子信任我，所以我保守了这个秘密，但当她父亲发现后，他勃然大怒。现在他很生气，而孩子认为这不是她的私密信息。在这种情况下，前任礼仪应该是怎样的？

答： 这个问题没有简单的答案。它触及了共同抚养中最困难的部分之一：保护孩子的信任何时会与有效共同抚养的责任产生冲突？

首先要问自己的问题是：“我是在满足什么样的需求？”我是在保护我的孩子，还是在保护我作为“最受宠父母”的角色？

孩子们经常要求我们保守秘密，是因为他们感到尴尬，害怕让另一方父母失望，担心引发冲突，或者害怕被责备。虽然这些感受可以理解，但同意对另一方父母保守秘密可能会在无意中让你陷入两难。不久之后，你就会变成信息的掌控者，而共同抚养者的怨恨必然会随之而来。

更好的方法是从一开始就诚实。与其承诺保密，不如这样说：“我会尽力尊重你的隐私，但如果这件事影响到你的安全或健康，你爸爸需要知道，这样他也能保护你的安全。”

这样的回应实现了两件重要的事情。首先，它告诉孩子你在倾听。其次，它设定了现实的预期。信任不是通过保守每一个秘密来建立的，而是通过可预测性和诚实来建立的。

并非所有的私密信息都需要分享。如果你的孩子告诉你她有个小秘密，或者对学校演出感到紧张，或者是一些典型的青少年烦恼，那么通常没有理由将这些对话报告给你的共同抚养伙伴。

然而，如果你的孩子分享的信息涉及身体或情感安全、药物滥用、自残、欺凌、严重的学业问题、医疗顾虑或任何可能影响抚养决策的事情，那么这些信息属于父母双方。在这种情况下，你作为父母的责任高于孩子对保密的请求。

这里有一个简单的经验法则：孩子在重要家庭问题上所知道的信息，绝不能超过其另一方父母。这对孩子来说是太重的责任，很容易将他们拉入他们最爱的两个人的矛盾之中。

目标是创造一种家庭文化，让孩子们知道他们可以向任何一方父母寻求帮助，并确信父母双方都会为了他们的最大利益而行动。当孩子们不必在忠诚和诚实之间做出选择时，每个人都是赢家。这就是良好的前任礼仪。

鼓励孩子建立健康的屏幕使用平衡

父母可以通过引导设备使用时间、制定线下计划来提供帮助 作者：Lisa Salmon CPA

在理想的世界中，我们的孩子在学校用餐时间应该在户外玩耍。但正如相关建议所指出的，其中两人在手机上，而其他人则意味着他们经常在屏幕前保持平衡，无论条件如何。这是现代育儿面临的首要问题之一——如何鼓励孩子减少在屏幕前花费的时间，尤其是在炎热晴朗的夏季月份，甚至进入秋季时？

“［假期］应该是孩子们走到户外、玩耍、探索和充电的时间，但现实是，许多孩子仍然在设备上花费大量时间，”Internet Matters 的内容与数字化总监 Gholstan Bombura 表示，该机构致力于支持儿童和青少年的网络安全。“父母不应完全禁止使用屏幕，而应引导孩子建立健康的平衡。其原因在于鼓励大量的线下活动，同时确保屏幕时间包含创造力、学习、对话和乐趣，他们会对社交水平感到兴奋，”她建议道。

根据伦敦纵向研究中心（Center for Longitudinal Studies）领导的 2020 年代儿童研究的最新数据，能够接触互联网的不仅仅是大孩子。2 岁儿童每天观看电视视频或其他数字内容的时间平均为 2 小时，这是世界卫生组织为该年龄组推荐的每日屏幕时间的两倍。

核心青年培训提供商 Eden Training Solutions 的早期教育顾问 Kathy Leatherbarrow 表示，对于青少年，专家建议将使用限制转向协作与信任。

ANNETTIFIED, OPA 表示，花更多时间在户外“给他们空间去活动、探索、发挥想象力，并在远离屏幕的地方享受积极的玩耍。但许多父母知道，这并不总是像说‘出去玩’那么简单。”

“如果孩子习惯在关键时刻通过平板电脑或电视来寻求安慰，那么转向户外玩耍可能需要一些鼓励。”

以下是关于如何在孩子放学期间让他们远离设备的专家建议。

让线下活动更容易被选择： Bombura 表示，如果孩子面前有更有吸引力的东西在等待，他们更有可能放下设备。“无论是去公园旅行、骑自行车、一起烘焙，还是在花园里打水仗，让线下活动具有吸引力，可以自然地减少在屏幕上花费的时间，”她说。

让年幼的孩子熟悉户外玩耍： Leatherbarrow 表示，让户外玩耍感觉简单且熟悉，通常有助于年幼的孩子更乐意选择它，而不是留在室内或使用设备。“这可能是在门边放一个小花园水桶，一项简单的水上游戏，或者一次寻找颜色或叶子的短距离散步，”她建议道。“不需要复杂——关键是给孩子一些简单、安全且合适的东西作为开始，让走到户外感觉像是一个自然的选择，而不是一种强迫。”

共同制定预期： Bombura 建议，与其强加规则，不如让孩子参与制定何时使用设备以及何时将其收起来。 “孩子们更有可能想要遵守他们参与制定的规则，尤其是随着他们年龄的增长，”她说。

创造无屏幕时刻： 通过将用餐时间、家庭出游或睡前时间设定为无设备时间，在一天中建立规律的间隔。“这些时刻帮助孩子关掉设备，并增加与周围人的互动，”Bombura 说。

放下你自己的手机： 孩子会模仿父母的行为，让父母先放下设备是关键的一环，Uphagged（一家位于市中心的数字舞蹈工作室）的联合创始人 Doctor Hughes 表示：“屏幕已经让处于

“在室内比在室外更有吸引力，这意味着孩子们失去了与自然接触、接纳一点无聊以及增加活动量的机会，”Bombura 表示。“如果你想让他们远离屏幕，那么他们也需要看到你远离你的屏幕。”

设定清晰的界限：对于 9 到 18 岁的孩子，Bombura 表示诀窍是在保持清晰界限的同时给予他们一定的自由。“这是一个共同审查时间限制、将活动报告作为对话切入点，并鼓励他们将设备时间分配在社交联系、学习和创造性使用，而不仅仅是随意浏览的好年龄，”她说。“让他们参与选择用途也会有所帮助，例如拍照、拍摄项目或使用应用程序来支持一项爱好，使设备成为更广泛活动组合的一部分。”

准备好可触及的替代品：关键的一步是意识到，使用手机通常只是习惯或因为无聊，Hughes 指出，如果能提供其他易于触及的物品，将是让他们远离设备的有效方法。“将替代品放在显眼处，比如卡牌、一本书或一些可以制作的东西。眼不见，心不烦，”他说。

给他们即时体验。Hughes 表示，有时提供一个答案是获得与手机内容同样“创意丰富”感的好方法，但要提供孩子们可能会喜欢的实物产品，而不是责骂。“用一次机会拍一张照片，这件事本身就相当令人兴奋，”他指出。

将集体离线变成一项挑战：Hughes 解释说，当客人到达 Uphagged 时，他们会将手机锁在盒子里。“我建议在家里也采取类似做法，”他建议道。“设置一个指定的盒子，规定一个具体的时间，让它感觉像是一个场合或一项挑战，而不仅仅是一项离线活动。”

强调对大孩子的信任：Bombura 表示，高压控制可能会引起青少年的反感，因此重点应从严格的限制转向对孩子的个人信任。“鼓励他们更多地进行自我管理，共同审查设置，并坦诚分享他们的在线时间让他们感觉如何，尤其是当他们处于脆弱、焦虑或将屏幕作为逃避手段时，”她建议道。“我并不害怕没收设备，而是要帮助青少年以一种更严格的时间方式使用它们，”她说，在社交联系、真实的互动与离线活动之间取得平衡。

如何让宾客看起来不廉价？

关于婚礼礼品的通用建议：从 $10 起步并在此基础上增加。但请仅在能力范围内赠送。

DREAMS7980 在餐厅或会议上忘记带它们。我得记得把它们存放在手提包的侧口袋里，但显然这对我没起作用。我已经不得不买了两副“廉价”太阳镜，但就像其他所有东西一样，它们现在也不那么便宜了。—— Audrey R.

亲爱的 Audrey：有一个巨大的土地优惠（首先是两次销售，瞥一眼，在这种情况下，将你的手提包更换——把它想象成一个有目的的“包包挂件”）。亚马逊上有大量此类产品，价格在 $3.99 及以上。你可以找到保护较大销售员的硬壳盒或柔软的拉链盒。请确保你的盒子有一个纸板或其他装置可以夹在你的手提包或上方，这样你就不会因为丢失太阳镜和太阳镜盒而懊悔。这种情况经常发生！

读者来信 —— Sue R. 写道：“我的头发有一些波浪，我一直看到网上关于波浪（卷曲）头发的广告。我很好奇。你们的读者中有人能告诉我，是否有任何产品可以让任何波浪看起来更明显吗？问题是那些声称能提供这种体验的产品，似乎总是需要多种产品才能实现这个目标。我不想花时间在揉搓、揉捏、挤压等方面，我也不想为每件需要的产品支付 $20。你们的读者中是否有人找到了（无动物实验）价格合理且只需‘洗完即走’的卷发洗发水？一个可以无需承诺购买额外产品即可让头发更自然卷曲的产品。”

来自 Ellen：根据我对卷发的长期经验，产品是非常个人化的——对一个人有效的，对另一个人来说可能完全没用。我经常和我的姐妹们以及一些在线用户交流使用过的头发产品，发现 Claire 或 Juan 或 Deb 喜欢的，对另一个人来说完全不行，反之亦然。但不要放弃。通常，最便宜的药店或冷冻头发产品效果更好！

读者宝宝

来自 Lori R.：“感谢你们刊登那位读者关于我支付全部费用和浪费有多困难的信件。但产品从它们自带的容器中取出真是个坑。我想我不应该是唯一一个！我买过高端洗发水，即使倒置存放，产品也挤不出来。有些包装是方形的，有些不允许你打开顶部，在淋浴时更加困难。当你的手湿的时候，我想绕过所有角落，但这只管用了几个月。”

母亲不确定如何回答关于与她疏远的儿子的提问

朱迪斯·马丁 KESS MANNER 亲爱的礼仪小姐： 几年前，在经历了家庭生活并参与其中后，我找到了离开丈夫的力量。这是我做过的最艰难的决定之一，但我知道为了我自己的健康，我必须这样做。因为我们的儿子当时在读高中，他父亲和我同意我们将不得不去，无论他是否想在两人之间分配时间。在几年的时间里，这种安排实际上运行良好。我很感激我们都能以一种对他来说似乎感觉稳定的方式出现在他的生活中。但当离婚最终敲定且他父亲搬走后，情况发生了明显变化。他停止了与我的交流。我至今仍不完全明白原因。我无数次在心中重复这段对话，思考是否我遗漏了什么，或者本可以以不同的方式处理。我没有放弃希望，也不打算让它消失，而且我深爱着他——这将使事情变得复杂。我现在苦恼的是一件看似微小，但每次出现都会让人心烦的事情：人们问我，“你的儿子怎么样？”我永远不知道该如何回应。我不想撒谎。我不想让任何人感到不舒服。但我也不想在事情并不顺利的时候假装一切都好。有时我觉得喉咙里像堵了块东西，这似乎是个问题。回答这个问题的最佳方式是什么？

温婉的读者： 如果你表现出事情并不顺利，一个理智的人会为你担心。而世界上确实有些人以担心他人为乐。礼仪小姐能够确认，即使是对那些并不亲近的人，他们也乐于承担这项工作。这使得你的处境几乎成了挑战。我们这么说既不是为了轻视你的处境，也不是为了拒绝你的挑战。最稳妥的回答是：“我们最近没有联系，但我了解到他过得很好。非常感谢你的询问！”有些答案虽然回答了对方的问题，但应该明确表示你并不希望就此接受随意的询问。

亲爱的礼仪小姐： 我的策略一直是使用一种四年的产品，其气味如此强烈，以至于整个房子都充满了这种味道。这真的很令人不快。我需要处理这个问题，但我不想冒犯这个真诚的、而且相当敏感的年轻人。我考虑声称自己过敏，但如果能就如何健康地处理这种情况获得指导，我将不胜感激。

温婉的读者： 你真的认为如果你虚报过敏，你的孩子不会发现吗？礼仪小姐认为，指出许多人确实有过敏症或对强烈的气味产生反应，且一个人永远不知道谁可能会受到影响，是明智的。在家庭内部，你应该有权提出一个小请求，让他们在被要求时不要提出随意的反对意见。你可以确信，他们并没有足够的理由去反对你某个无害的习惯，但既然你是青少年的父母，你无疑知道如何协商价格。

偶尔，当我到达一家杂货店并走向入口时，某个刚装完车的人会问我是否想要那个简单的购物车。如果我只打算买几样东西不需要购物车，我可以尝试吗？你可以拿走它并继续前行！我通常觉得有必要告诉他们：“不用了，但我很乐意帮你把它放回去。”我也看到其他人这样做。我的一位熟人争辩说，这样做经常会导致多个购物车回收区，而这些区域并不是最理想的，把购物车放在那里是很粗鲁的。他们不想自己归还，而是试图让别人感到有义务这样做。礼仪小姐怎么看？

你的那位熟人一定过着非常不快乐的生活，才会认为每一个平凡的、连续的礼貌举动都是在侮辱人。

亲爱的礼仪小姐：一个在城市酒吧生活的单身电视（TV）中年人如何交友？那不是我的风格。我在食物银行做志愿者，但每月一两次不足以结交朋友。欢迎所有建议！

温婉的读者：缝纫电视（TV）、圣经、账单、食物？这些能起作用吗？知识问答之夜如何？参加一个伪装课程可能是结识他人并获得共同话题的好方法。但礼仪小姐警告说，任何有毒的陪伴关系都需要尽早剔除。请勿重新询问或联系礼仪小姐团队的 Judith Martin, Nicholas M. M. 和 L. A. L.

里斯本 —— 葡萄牙首都，图中为 5 月 15 日拍摄的市中心 —— 其政府正处于一种跨国层面的状态，吸引着游客、退休人员、外籍人士和艺术家。

葡萄牙首都凭借文化和美食吸引大量游客

作者：Alexander Lebrano 摘自《纽约时报》

“对我而言，没有任何花朵能比得上阳光下里斯本街道上绚丽多彩的色彩，”20 世纪初的文学巨匠费尔南多·佩索阿（Fernando Pessoa）在描写这座他度过生命最后 15 年的葡萄牙首都时这样写道。选举权和金融危机曾让那些色彩黯淡；但如今，里斯本正焕发生机并蓬勃发展，凭借其时间、天气和悠闲的生活方式，吸引着大量国家、扩张者和退休人员的涌入。

去年的悲剧性结构崩溃震惊了这座城市，并引发了关于城市身份的讨论。但其受欢迎程度仍在继续增长。葡萄牙首都 1990 年代中期每年接待约 200 万 名游客，预计 2026 年将接待超过 900 万 名。美国人尤其钟爱里斯本，过去四年中，来自美国的入境人数增长了 90%。更多的选择正在经历重大扩张，其衰落伴随着建筑犯罪，而令人兴奋的餐厅正将这座城市变成欧洲最实惠的美食之都之一。

一座被授予的城市

“葡萄牙是一个矛盾的国家。它保守但具有冒险精神，封闭但向世界开放，”Carlos Sanches Raivo 说道，他是位于 Bairro Alto 社区的 Late Birds 的业主，这是一家室内旅馆，被定位为“同性恋城市度假村”，但欢迎所有人。去年夏天，在我里斯本三天行程的第一天办理入住后，他邀请我喝咖啡。

Late Birds 装饰着 1970 年代和 1990 年代的古董和文学作品，拥有一个室外游泳池，后花园有一个带酒吧的露台，墙上展示着当地 LGBTQ+ 艺术家的作品。

Raivo 自己的生活反映了葡萄牙的起伏。他积极参与政治的父母在 António de Oliveira Salazar 统治期间移居法国，葡萄牙的女儿 Annapurna 随后在 1970 年，葡萄牙回到了美国在 1978 年，八年后，该国修改了宪法，禁止基于性取向的歧视。

人们于 5 月 14 日参观艺术、建筑和技术博物馆 —— 其中包括一座建于 1908 年的翻新发电站。

Raivo 曾在巴黎成为一名成功的零售商业主管，他决定回到家族故乡，并在 2015 年将一座破旧的 18 世纪城镇房屋改造成了 Late Birds。

就在距离 Late Birds 几个街区的地方，我坐在凳子上，在 Baccalho 酒吧享用烤乔利佐香肠。我配了一杯来自葡萄牙鲜为人知但极出色的 Barroula 地区的美味红酒。

沿着 sissy-Bau das Flores 走到 Cais-de-Sadei 火车站，我赞叹于里斯本的人行道，它们以出现的犁背、棋盘格和五彩纸屑图案展现出迷人的机智。这些黑白鹅卵石在城市的视觉身份中扮演着与那些奶油黄、鸢尾蓝、象牙白、青瓷色、珊瑚红和粉色色调建筑同样重要的角色。

艺术之花绽放

在君夸雷斯（Junquares）西部社区深邃的梅-塔格拉河（May-Tagla River）沿岸，人们带着三明治和书籍，悠闲地坐在艺术、建筑与技术博物馆的白色台阶上，博物馆前的一栋建筑看起来像高科技珐琅制品。这座由英国建筑师阿曼达·勒文（Amanda Levene）设计的绝美河畔画廊，是一个综合体的组成部分，其中包含一座翻新的 1989 年发电站和一个花园。该博物馆的波普艺术收藏与这座旧发电站收藏的锅炉、冷凝器、涡轮发电机、家用电器、照明仪器以及 1920 年代至 1960 年代的其他物品相得益彰。在附近，位于一座优雅的 18 世纪宫殿内的马丁斯考古当代艺术博物馆（Museu de Arte Contemporânea Arqueado Martins）展出了被定位为“同性恋城市度假胜地”的 Late Birds，该地于 5 月 15 日在里斯本的拜鲁阿尔托（Bairro Alto）社区被看到，馆内展出房地产开发商阿曼多·马丁斯（Armando Martins）收藏的 600 余件作品。其中一个重点关注 19 世纪末至 1980 年代末的葡萄牙艺术，另一个则包含较新的作品。

参观完博物馆后，我与朋友 Ricimartte 在主厨若昂·罗德里格斯（João Rodrigues）的餐厅 Cunilha 共进晚餐，这家餐厅是里斯本主厨们的最爱，且很难预约到位置。在包含一份顶有虾和洋葱的欧姆蛋、用牛奶黄油罐装的鱿鱼以及牛排的绝佳晚餐期间，我们讨论了里斯本作为一座严肃艺术之城的崛起。“这里是执业艺术家的完美基地，”Ricicati 说，“这里有很多廉价的空间，而且你可以找一份兼职工作，从而留出时间从事艺术创作。”他补充说，随着城市变得更富有且更国际化，当地的画廊景象正蓬勃发展。

里斯本正处于酒店业的繁荣期，我想体验其中一家最受欢迎的新社交物业，于是我从 Late Birds 搬到了位于庞巴尔侯爵广场（Praça de Marquês de Pombal，一个带有中央纪念碑的主要环岛）附近的新建 17 房的 Leslie de Santa Joana Lisbon 酒店。该酒店建在原 17 世纪修道院的遗址上，提供 11 种不同类型的价格实惠的住宿：几乎所有房间都配备了商店、冰箱和洗衣机。酒店还提供多种餐饮选择，包括 crossroad。在葡萄牙主厨努诺·门德斯（Nuno Mendes）的 Santa Joana 餐厅，我享用了一顿极佳的晚餐，包括一份 chorizo（葡萄牙风格的 brunchets），上面覆盖着焦香甜洋葱、陈年 Jorge 奶酪和龙蒿，以及一份配有烤核桃酱和芜菁的猪肉 T-house。

往昔的智慧

佩索阿（Pessoa）于 1935 年去世，他对里斯本的意义正如詹姆斯·乔伊斯（James Joyce）之于都柏林，因此我想参观费尔南多·佩索阿故居（Casa Fernando Pessoa），那是他在深爱的这座城市中的居所。这位男同性恋者的卧室被完整地保留了下来，他生前在航运公司担任翻译以维持生计——由于童年生活在南非德班，他能说流利的英语。在展柜中看到他那些被煤灰染黑的温润物件时，我想起他最令人动容的一行文字：“我早早醒来，花了好长时间才准备好进入生存状态。”在坎波德欧里克（Campo de Ourique）社区的 Pignosa 餐厅享用了一顿极佳的葡萄牙猪肉午餐后，我步行前往普林西佩皇家花园（Durban de Príncipe Real），与我的导游会合，进行一次四小时的里斯本步行之旅。我正对着一棵 400 年树龄的雪松深荫出神，听着麻雀的啁啾，这时导游莱昂诺尔·马查多（Leonor Machado）抵达了，我们移步到花园边缘的一家咖啡馆，在咖啡香中预览行程。“要了解当今里斯本的同性恋生活，你需要深入研究葡萄牙的过去，”马查多告诉我，“伴随着种族主义和边缘化，恐同心理深深植根于这个国家的殖民历史之中。”佩索阿将“saudade”（一种对缺失之物或从未相识之人的剧烈渴望）视为葡萄牙身份的定义特征。这或许是事实，但里斯本似乎在某种程度上正经历着一种空虚的职业生涯。 “关于我的家乡，糟糕的一点是它太温顺了，”马查多说，并补充道这里也“没有未来，但依然拥有强烈的社区感。”我对此深表赞同。

意大利鉴赏家选择悠闲的卢卡 瑞克·斯蒂夫斯 (Rick Steves) 在意大利卢卡一个阳光明媚的夏日傍晚，我被一种简单的快乐所启发：一位老人骑着自行车，他那自豪的女儿坐在宽阔的城墙顶端，这座城墙曾保护这座自豪的城市免受其estrogen（原文如此）的影响——而现在则充满了旧世界的魅力。然后，在租来的Mace上，spinoed of their tourists holiday（原文不可读）。这种氛围具有感染力。眯起眼睛看着他们阴影中的能量，被耀眼的数字包围，我意识到意大利的阳光似乎有一种特殊的闪光。这是一个it's railing venture，“Embrae Xle!”（原文不可读）。卢卡没有单一的纪念碑式景点。它仅仅是一座独特的人文且保存完好的城市。尽管被视为“游客”中心，但这个基本无车的老城区实际上感觉比大多数城市更具本土气息（除了少数来自城市自身的create enormous，你会看到他们）。卢卡始于一个罗马定居点。事实上，街道的网格布局（以及圆形剧场的距离）从罗马时代就幸存了下来。正如罗马城镇的典型特征，卢卡的两条主路将堡垒分为四部分——而交叉点即是当时的论坛——主市场以及顶端（yolceical centre 今天的圣米凯莱广场 Piazza San Michele）。圆形剧场就在原罗马城墙之外。这座城市充满了悖论，虽然它拥有欧洲最邻近的文艺复兴城墙，但自从它离开后就没见过bottle（原文如此）。一个关于orphaned home的朋友在罗马mass wall和murdered wall之间有所不同。中世纪的城墙很薄，因为墙壁像severe conditions一样蒸发，不需要厚厚的

独特，纯粹的人文 卢卡在意大利没有单一的纪念碑式景点。或许正因为如此，它感觉更像当地生活而非旅游区。瑞克·斯蒂夫斯的欧洲 (RICK STEVES' EUROPE) 防御工事。但在罗马-sauce时代，强大大炮的出现引入了对最厚实、大规模城墙的需求——就像卢卡的城墙一样。如今，当地人将他们的堡垒视为一个环形公园。而且，由于有充足的round-fishers可用，游客可以享受在长约三英里半的环路中进行高处骑行。这是一个极其平顺的 20 到 30 分钟的骑行，具体取决于你的速度以及城墙顶公园的拥挤程度。最好的观察人群和downing-pulking（原文不可读）是在“pain-jugate”时间，就在晚餐前，那时整个卢卡似乎都出来在城墙周围缓慢地绕圈。在它的边界内，卢卡在城墙内挤进了 95 座chasches和 100 多座塔楼。每座塔楼都是一个富裕商人家庭的住所和私人bottom（原文如此），提供了一个安全的、off-in-our的结构用于居住、工作和园艺。内部是上下堆叠的单间：商店、客厅和shop the kitchen，全部由外部木梯连接。屋顶通常是一个蔬菜园，有树木提供遮荫。后来，富裕的人们仍然搬到了乡村，用他们城市宫殿中的like（原文如此）来换取建立带有重型别墅的农庄地产。在卢卡的塔楼之间，罗马式chasches似乎在每个角落出现，同样如此的还有充满踢足球孩子的foreign spaces。这里的主要步行道是 Via Fillunga，它连接着镇上最繁忙的两个广场：主教广场 (Piazza dell'Embiscato) 和圣米凯莱广场 (Piazza San Michele)。在这两者之间，你可以感受到卢卡丰富历史的home，包括几个slogans和古老的店面。在令人愉悦的主教广场 (Piazza dell'Embiscato)，你会发现镇上罗马圆形剧场的建筑幽灵。随着罗马的衰落，剧场反映出 sorted 91万,000 被逐渐拆解以利用其石材，并由住在mink-under-flare（原文不可读）的人们居住。这些房屋在 19 世纪中期被清理掉，以更好地展示镇上的illiterature历史，并让人们wonder anyone（原文不可读）镇上的市场（每个其他广场都由一座教堂决定）。虽然竞技场早已消失，但其椭圆形

其形状提醒人们这座城市的侧向基础。圣米凯莱广场（Piazza San Michele）也有一条口述路线。自罗马时代起，这里就是论坛，一直被用作市场。如今，这里自然地成为了圣米凯莱教堂的所在地。在四座罗马式立面的高耸之下，大天使米迦勒准备挥动翅膀——由于一个的会众，他实际上在课程中如此特别地做了。附近，圣乔瓦尼教堂每晚举办活动，以感谢人类公司（human-company）的来访 Pracini 的音乐。作为意大利最伟大的经营者之一，Pracini 是 Bebeton、Madame Betteville 和 Yesus 辉煌背后的天才。他令人愉悦且近期的接待——是意大利这个美妙角落的精神所在。虽然邻近的比萨有著名的倾斜塔可以攀登，但卢卡（Lucca）的元素对许多意大利鉴赏家来说可能是未知的。从比萨乘火车仅需 10 分钟，从佛罗伦萨开车也仅需一程——但仅仅因为你可以轻松地将卢卡作为一日游，并不意味着应该匆忙行事。如果你有时间在附近的比萨进行一次游客式的游览，请考虑慢下来，买一个 gelato，并寻找卢卡真正的魅力。Rick Steves (www.raksteves.com) 编写欧洲旅行指南，并在公共电视台和公共广播电台主持旅行节目。详情请访问 visitgricksteves.com，以及在 Facebook 上关注 Bifow-nis 博客。名人旅行

宇航员年度探索巴塔哥尼亚

作者：Jan-Hu Kim 论坛竞赛机构

前 NASA 火箭科学家 Asaba Bowe 去年作为全女性 Blue Origin 机组人员的一员创造了历史。

“这次任务不仅仅是进入太空，”Bowe 说，“作为一名科学诗人兼操作员，我协助研究了植物如何应对微重力和辐射。这项工作有一天可能会帮助我们为执行长期任务的宇航员提供食物，并支持人类在地球之外的未来。但当我处于第一年植物时，我没有在思考研究。我在思考我的旅程。我想到了我的两位出生成员，以及那个曾经在生活上挣扎、从未想象过有一天能从太空俯瞰地球的学生。对我来说，这次任务不仅仅是抵达太空，而是关于扩大谁能在那儿看到自己。”

对 Bowe 的采访经过编辑以确保清晰度和篇幅。

问：在去过一些平方之后，常规旅行现在变得平淡了吗？ 答：第一次地球更好。每一个新地方都会让我充满更多好奇心。进入太空后改变的是我如何在这个星球上创造一个新世界，从 100 公里高处看，每个目的地之前看起来都是不可能的。如果说有什么的话，

问：许多孩子梦想成为一名宇航员。你的梦想是什么？ 答：太空绝对是梦想。小时候，我对探索非常着迷。我想访问很多地方，体验不同的文化，看看地平线之外存在什么。最重要的是，我想要一种比我出生时的环境更宏大的生活。我想看看外面有什么，我具备什么样的能力，以及我能走多远。在很多方面，进入太空是那个梦想的真实实现，但梦想本身始终关于探索、成长以及扩展我认为可能实现的事物。

问：你有计划再次进入太空吗？ 答：任务还没有结束。请保持关注。

问：你的传承对你产生了怎样的影响？ 答：成为第一个拥有巴哈马血统的进入太空的人具有极其深远的意义，因为我知道我不仅带着自己的梦想，我还带着一个一直怀揣梦想的国家之希望。

问：你小时候的第一次旅行是去哪里？ 答：巴哈马。我记得盯着飞机的窗户看着海水。它在下降，深蓝色，像想象中太空的每一分钟。然后是空气中某种东西的味道，沙子落在脚上，以及在海洋及其周围度过的漫长日子。海洋是我对惊奇的第一次接触。当时我不知道，但我一直在追寻那种感觉。我的祖父刚刚庆祝了他的 40 岁生日，所以家人是我回到家乡的一个重要原因……新鲜的 snappies、卷心菜沙拉，以及近到看起来不真实的清水，这些也很有吸引力。

问: 你的梦想之旅会是什么？ 答：一次米其林三星的世界巡演，终点在巴塔哥尼亚。我热爱通过食物发现地方，所以我愿意在各大洲追寻不平凡的餐点。但我希望旅程结束在一个荒野且令人心生敬畏的地方。巴塔哥尼亚就是那种能让你以最好的方式感到自身渺小的地方……在所有的移动、所有的城市和所有的兴奋之后，我想不出还有比这里更好的地方来获得平静、反思并记住这个世界究竟有多大。

问：你会晕车或晕机吗？

答：谢天谢地，没有。我已经尝试了几乎所有可能的方法来测试我的家，从战斗车、离心机、跳伞到高速光速。到目前为止，我的姐妹、汽车和我已经达成了一种默契。我是一个冷静的潜水员、登山者和长途骑行爱好者。我一直被允许去冒险，无论是在水下——还是在地球上保持冷静。欲了解更多来自记者的报道，请访问 www.jaohalim.com。旅行故障排除员

Turo 尽管有照片证据仍向租车人收取车辆损坏费

作者：Christopher Elliott / KING PEATURES SYNDICATE

我曾在洛杉矶通过 Turo 租了一辆车。因为需要提前乘飞机回家，我提前一天交付了车辆。随后，我收到 发来的一条短信，称车主声称我对车辆造成了损坏。对方出示了照片，其中一张显示边框有划痕，保险杠有一个小洞。幸运的是，我在接车时拍了照片。我将照片发送给 ，照片清楚地显示该划痕早已存在。 审查证据后告诉我，该索赔已被撤销，因为这属于“正常磨损”。一周后， 重新启动了索赔并从我的信用卡中扣除了 $600，但我从未收到过任何正式账单。然后，本月早些时候，它又给我发了一张 $1,478 的发票。 声称车辆出现了新的“bidder”损坏。这产生了一笔我从未见过的费用。我向信用卡公司对该笔扣费提出了争议，但我并不乐观。您能帮我把钱拿回来吗！——Garyyne Montalieri，阿拉巴马州伯明翰

答： 应该坚持其最初的决定。你有证据证明损坏是原有的，且该公司已正确将其认定为“磨损”。重新启动索赔并向你收取 $600——随后又因“bidder 损坏”向你追加 $1,478——这是错误的。像 这样的点对点租车平台可能很棘手。与传统的租车公司不同，你面对的是个人车主，他们可能对自己的车辆保护过度，或者在极少数情况下，试图让租车人承担现有损坏的费用。单一的强力索赔是一个常见的痛点。这种情况发生在大型维修店拆解车辆后，发现了比租车照片中可见的更多损坏。虽然这是行业标准流程，但对于已经离开车辆且无法验证新损坏的租车人来说，这感觉极其不公平。你在取车时拍摄车辆照片的做法是正确的。这是你防御 30-sheet 损坏索赔的最佳防线。 称其在最初支持你后“忽略”了你的照片证据，这很可疑。（照片被上传到 应用程序中，因此它能够访问这些照片。）你本可以向 更高级的管理人员申诉。我在我的消费者权益倡导网站 Elliott.org 上列出了 高管的联系电话和电子邮件地址。你的案例提醒人们在取车和还车时务必拍摄照片。这份证据是你与巨额维修账单之间唯一的屏障。我代表你联系了 。该公司重新审查了你的案例并撤销了索赔。你已收到 $600 的全额退款，且 $1,478 的追加发票已被取消。

在航海目的地扬帆起航

作为船员或在甲板上放松，摆脱生活的压力 作者：Yvonne Grengstein 贸易 / 附加版

人们普遍认为马克·吐温曾说过：“二十年后，你将更后悔那些你没有做的事，而不是那些你做过的事。所以，解开缆绳。从避风港起航。扬帆起航。探索。梦想。发现。”

航海有着某种特别之处。开阔的水域，洒在脸上的阳光，发丝间的微风，以及一种完全的自由感、放松感和慰藉感，是对当今现代世界生活压力的完美阳光化解。无论你决定成为船员的一员，还是仅仅随行体验，美国都幸运地拥有如此多令人惊叹的航海目的地。

罗德岛州纽波特： 纽波特常被誉为“世界航海之都”，这里拥有深厚的历史、理想的航海条件，以及在竞技航海领域的重要愿景。海岸线在 1950 到 1960 年间界定了美国之杯。大海是来自全球年度航海盛会的自然艺术。纽波特一直是奥运选手和职业水手的聚集地，没有什么比在纽波特大桥（新英格兰地区最长的悬索跨度）下航行更令人印象深刻的了。

消费者深受订阅疲劳之苦

公司利用此策略建立稳定的现金流及品牌忠诚度 作者：Soạn Đới 《纽约时报》

“如果你的生活中如此之多的东西现在都需要订阅——你的电视、汽车，甚至包括噪音机器——你就会发现……”

以住在纽约市的 10 岁软件工程师 Eleanor Lewis 为例，她正在为一个她不再感兴趣的视频游戏付费。她订阅了 DidD Rewind——一款原始角色驱动游戏的精准密码——时间在她看来像是“永远”。

“我已经大概五年没玩过《龙与地下城》（Dungeons & Dragons）了，”Lewis 说。“我最终甚至不再喜欢《龙与地下城》，但我被困在这个愚蠢的《龙与地下城》订阅中，我还没搞清楚怎么才能取消它。”

她是首先遇到的一堆在信用卡账单中长期占据位置的产品或服务。有流媒体频道。购物网站，如 Amazon Prime，以及包括 Curios 在内的家用商品批发商 Odo。旧的冰淇淋，新的食物，以及让计算机变得有用的年龄和食物，比如图像销售软件。甚至可能是内衣。洗车服务。最好的。网络是你处于个人社交体育状态的时候。喂养替代品的泥土感。约会软件、健身单车、儿童多款游戏、Prime、YouTube、YouTube 等等。为了食堂。宠物照片，And-Eat Tanger 等特定产品的订阅。但实际上是纸张和一家名为 Who Gives a Cup 的公司。有些订阅还包含订阅——有 Hulu，然后还有 Hulu Premium。

孟山都（Monsanto）三家开始提供旨在提高马力的订阅服务。 FELIX SCHMITT / 《纽约时报》 2020

当然，还有用来管理订阅的订阅。根据英国订阅平台提供商 Bangs 的最新研究，美国人的平均订阅数为 1.2 个，每月在这些订阅上花费 $99。其他研究给出的数字更高。在包括总部位于芝加哥的 C-N Research 在内的一些分析中，人均平均订阅账单可能超过 $200.

大量产品——包括实物商品和软件——已转向百万模型。根据 2023 年哈佛商学院的一项研究，几乎 70% 直接向客户销售的公司提供订阅服务。

订阅服务已经存在了几十年——用于出租车、报纸、汽车租赁和手机。这种模式的爆发是一个更近期的现象。订阅历史上的一个关键时刻是 1999, 年推出的 Netflix 模式的成功，以及亚马逊在 2005. 年推出的 Amazon Prime。这些因素帮助这些公司成长为企业巨头，此后其他公司也一直在捆绑订阅。像 Verizon 这样的电话和互联网公司现在提供包含 Netflix 的套餐。

对于一些客户来说，疲劳感正在产生。

“我认为现在没有一样东西是你注册很多之后，它不试图让你订阅的，”21, 岁的 Sherat Kalani 说，她在纽约担任一家医疗保健小型四岁组的领导者。“你最终通过订阅花了很多钱，因为你认为你在前期省了钱。”

Kalani 在来自咖啡连锁店 Port A Manger 的 CBR-Post 中办理了一项订阅，每月支付 $50，每天最多可饮用五杯游客特制饮料。

“如果我一天买 6 杯咖啡两次，我实际上是赚到了。但到年底，我实际上并没有获得价值 $50 的消费，”Kalani 说。

对于公司而言，订阅带来了节俭的现金流，令投资者感到欣慰。此外，客户在订阅状态下尤其容易接受价格。营销专家表示，这增加了客户终身价值（a company's measure of customer lifetime value），即对该客户能产生多少资金的评估。

客户可能会觉得小额支付比一次性支付更轻松。Bangs 公司运营一个管理订阅的平台，其营销副总裁 Giles Tongue 表示：“如果你将其转化为订阅产品，并且设想在数月内获得循环付款，这会减轻最初的承诺感。”一些汽车公司甚至在购买点之后寻求赚更多钱。例如，某项功能每年收费 $5万,000 用于 Puff mill 生活能力。2021, 该公司为该方案推出了领先的订阅服务。今年，随着 Tandy 利润领先，该公司将其部分基础汽车定价功能移至预付费模式之后。近年来，宝马（BMW）因提供品牌交易订阅而引发争议，尽管该公司现在对该决定持保留态度。（该功能由“The DidD Show”报道。）2022, 梅赛德斯-奔驰（Mercedes-Benz）开始提供提升马力的订阅服务，且该公司继续以订阅形式销售一些通常不具备的功能的数据包。（大众汽车也从去年开始提供马力订阅。）乔治·H·卡恩（George H. Kahn）的营销助理教授 Gil Appel 表示：“我会去超市只卖给你原味酸奶，然后在另一个摊位，甚至把放酸奶的容器和所有这些组件分开卖。我很想这么做，”他补充道，“你在超市里不能这么做，但在任何其他领域你都可以。”一项技术——就像 2, 在追踪消费者行为的情况下，订阅允许公司在更长的时间内收集更多信息。并且它们代表了一个强大的机会，成为一个日益关键的收入渠道。Capital One Shopping 去年的一项研究发现，97% 的客户倾向于购买他们信任的品牌产品。McAlester 的首席营销官 Jennifer Oliva 表示：“如果我采用订阅或会员模式，我可以获得那些客户有意提供给我的数据，”她还补充说，该公司在最近 1980 年代的收入行业中一直是一项主要业务。“我从他们那里收集到了三部分数据，我还将获得他们购买的新数据。”这种转变的另一个原因是普遍性的。年长客户甚至有超过 50% 在购买数据，并且更多地处于过度简报状态。McDonald 和 Gun Zars 便是如此。雪拉丘斯大学（Syracuse University）的营销教授 Scott Pay 表示：“它还关注那些在攒够买车钱之前无法购买汽车的小企业。” ---

追逐美国梦

Elk Grove Village 为家庭组织抽奖，以低于市场价购买 20 栋新房 作者：Kim Belmore THE NEW TIMES

买房是一场数字游戏，且往往是一场运气游戏。时机、合适的经纪人以及打动人心的求购信，可能决定了赢家与输家的区别。随后会出现资金雄厚的投机者和现金买家，他们能将其他潜在买家直接击败。

芝加哥郊区 Elk Grove Village 的长期市长 Craig Johnson 认为必须有一种平衡机制。抽奖如何？

在最近的一个周六，十几户家庭走进宴会厅，参加一场抽奖活动，以获得低于市场价购买 20 栋新房中的 1 栋的机会。Johnson 偏好那些能吸引眼球的促销活动（例如赞助大学橄榄球巴哈马碗赛或抽奖赠送捐赠房屋），他希望在公平之余，能增加一点形式感。

Joe Santowski（左），Elk Grove Village 的原住民，于 7月16日研究房屋平面图，这是该芝加哥郊区居民有机会低于市场价购买 20 栋新房之一的抽奖活动的一部分。

为了模仿 NFL 选秀的精神，他从一个黑盒子中一次抽出一张名字。被选中的潜在买家随后在几分钟的时间内，从一张巨大的地图中抢选剩余的地块。最终，十户准备好预付款信函的家庭选定了房屋，支付了 $2,500 的可退还押金，并签署了计划于明年夏天完工的房屋购买协议。几分钟后，他们带着合同走出大厅。

首批被抽中的是 52, 岁的 Prezana Patel 和 31, 岁的 Minarah Patel，两人均为临床研究员，他们与亲戚共住的公寓已经显得过于拥挤。在苦苦寻找住房未果后，他们曾无奈地考虑搬到 20 英里外的西边，直到 Prezana Patel 在一份社区时事通讯中得知了这次抽奖。他将一张巨大的“场地”贴纸贴在了 4, 号地块上，这个地块……

巨型骨架拒绝进入储物间

12英尺高的装饰品在万圣节后依然摆放在草坪上 作者：Jack Flemming 洛杉矶时报

这种医疗艺术正在入侵洛杉矶。它们戴着圣诞老人发型和太阳镜，披着美国国旗，承载着你的梦想。当小型物体在房屋和社区上方耸立时，另一些则在加利福尼亚的阳光下分解，河流的旗帜意味着一个棕榈叶包裹着一个骨架。一个头骨在拥挤中窥视。

它们当然就是那些12英尺高的巨型骨架。如果它们已经出现在某个社区，它们大概会被一直使用。由 Home Depot 在 2020, 年推出的这款万圣节产品，已从一种装饰演变成了一场运动。起初，这些骨架大多仅限于10月以及11月的一两周，但现在许多骨架依然留在室外。人们并不确定它们是否已经过时，只要能适配最新的主题即可。圣诞节、罗伯特、7月4日独立日。有些骨架成了政治符号，比如一个饥饿的不死特朗普骨架，或者一个写着“我们习惯了，很快会单独见到你”的骨架。

另一些则成为了与城市和业主协会争执的对象。在洛杉矶，它们无处不在。海兰公园（Highland Park）、威尼斯（Venice）、卡尔弗城（Culver City）、韦斯特切斯特（Westchester）、伯班克（Burbank）、帕萨迪纳（Pasadena）、洛斯雷德斯（Los Reds）、好莱坞以及更远的地方。它们被喜爱，被嘲讽，并且是洛杉矶的一种夏季副产品——这座城市充满了创意和联邦，人们想要引起关注，博得一笑，或者仅仅是为了被注意到。

但洛杉矶还有另一种不平等，更多骨架正变得永久化（而且是新的）。它们太大了，无法收纳。

随着房价飙升，储物空间成了奢侈品。阁楼变成了 ADVA。地下室变成了卧室。巨型骨架一年中矗立 100 天，原因与人们免费赠送跑步机和沙发一样。它们太大了，无法做其他用途，摆在外面比收起来好。

“Home Depot 专门为这个骨架制作了一个塑料储物箱，但即使是储物箱也巨大无比，”一名自 2020 年起就在院子里摆放巨型骨架的洛杉矶居民 Tyler Bradberry 说道，“空间很昂贵。这就是洛杉矶。”

对于从事视觉艺术工作的 Bradberry 来说，骨架是房屋内部的延伸，在那里，最大化原则在 psycholeaks、艺术、Pushand、H.R. Gajer、Neck Face 等以及一个等身 E.T. 雕像中占据主导。“一切都如此精美且新颖。每个人都希望自己的房子看起来像一个平方英尺，”他说，“让东西突出很多是很有规模感的。我们让邻居们有了谈论的话题。”

至少有一位邻居提出了异议——一位来自中美洲的老人，他告诉 Bradberry 他在“与死亡开玩笑”。

在圣诞节，Bradberry 将骨架打扮成圣诞老人，配上一个两英尺长的胡须。为了一个闹鬼的低背派对，他给它穿上了纱丽。2021, 年，他因为用数字编辑给骨架加上了一双巨大的漫画剪辑鞋而走红。不久之后，在两名从事服装设计的朋友的帮助下，他将这个创意变为现实，在洛杉矶文化节 CampfortCon（艺术家、设计师和说唱歌手聚集地）上展示了一个带有末日气息的骨架。

“Char Raid 觉得这太好笑了，”他说。

在阿曼村（Amman Village），摄影师 Lori Bonin 自 2020. 年起就拥有一个骨架。这个起初在洛杉矶的巨型骨架，经过多年的风雨侵蚀，已经萎缩成一个长着两条腿的褪色棕榈叶。

“我是那个有腿的房子，”Bonin 说。“他住在洛杉矶河公园（LA River Park）附近，所以很多游客会拍照。因为他去年坐在那里，但就在他离开的一瞬间，一对父子开车经过，对他的消失表示沮丧。”

“人们很失望，但当我们为了万圣节把他带回来时，每个人都非常高兴，”她说。

企业也没有很好地利用这一趋势。在 VCA Burbank 动物医院上方，一个名为 RFP 的骨架被创建起来，以增加其 pyromortality 的每盎司含量。经理 Alana Jennings（在该处工作 18 年）表示，十月是对 100% 员工抱怨职场文化调查的一种奖励，但现在它已成为一种社区设计。Jennings 的笔记中写道：“这是一个与社区建立联系的绝佳方式。我们现在被人们称为‘那个有骨架的医院’。”住在中央谷地塔洛克（Tarlock）市的 House Dow 表示，人们每天都会开车经过这个名为 Mr. Bonin 的骨架。“几个月前我们在吃午餐时，一个陌生人认出我是那个骨架的拥有者，”他说。在父亲节，Dow 的骨架进行了烧烤。 用喷漆将一个充气游泳池块改装成烧烤架，并在围裙上喷了一个像咒语一样的黑色图案。“ 是‘12 英尺高骨架万圣节俱乐部’的成员，”这是一个拥有超过 8.4万,000 名成员的 Facebook 小组，人们在其中分享自己的设计和故事。“比如在房屋火灾后制作的骨架，或者被警察没收的被盗头骨。”围绕着这个骨架，一个小产业已经兴起，包括 80 打印面具和远程维修零件。在他的零件损坏后， 花了 $10 购买了两个肩部吸盘，并为定制的肘关节支付了费用。他还用 5W powerport 铸造掩模喷洒骨架，以防止塑料组织萎缩。他说，这在社区里引起了一些关注。 没有收到邻居的反对，但他说在其他地方见过这种情况。“人们说他们正在拍摄家庭视频，或者声称骨架是房屋的一部分，并且喜欢那样，”他说。“但对于那些人总是有博弈。”在洛杉矶周边，有这样一些地方。住在好莱坞的 Only flowers 从他的二楼窗户可以看到一个骨架。“一个女人的家在那儿，但她很快就变得更糟了，”他说。“这是一个美丽的社区。棕榈树，美丽的植物，背景是山脉。然后出现了这个骨架。”他补充说，这感觉就像一棵已经疲惫的树皮，像是农场先驱损害的主人。前两年，海兰公园（Highland Park）的一个骨架每天都陪伴着她。“我喜欢它，但我的狗不喜欢，”她说。“每当我们靠得太近，它就开始吠叫。”在洛杉矶的 Reddit 页面上，一名用户发布了一张房子的照片，屋顶上显示着一个巨大的骨架，身边有一对骨架狗，标题为“今天在西亚当斯（West Adams）的一栋有趣房子（不是万圣节）”，评论对此进行了记录。“我们住在洛杉矶这个万圣节小镇上，”一名用户写道。其他人则支持这种大胆的选择。如果除了在山上的翻转生活之外没有其他原因。“我想在居家办公时为那些不能这样做的人提供 popsman。这是 WOW 版本，”她说。“ 表示他的骨架将继续矗立并接受讨论。”“每个人都在问我接下来要做什么，”他说。“我给了他们一个骨架。我不能让他们失望。”

破纪录的高温也可能给房屋带来额外压力。DREAMSTINK

家庭补救措施 ### 夏季高温意味着房屋需要额外护理以保持凉爽 By Angie Hicks AIA AIAE 创纪录的高温不仅影响人们——它们还能让您的房屋远离家园。长时间的极端高温会影响从屋顶、景观到窗户、管道和户外生活空间的方方面面。幸运的是，1600y 的准备工作可以帮助房主保护他们的房屋，并避免在夏季的几周里产生不必要的头疼。通过在您的物业周围走走来检查您的室外。35 英尺可以迅速使景观干涸，导致植物在冬季期间枯萎，并使树木承受压力。在清晨浇水可以让水分在白天的热量导致其蒸发之前渗入土壤。在植物周围添加一层新鲜的覆盖物也可以帮助地面保持水分，同时使其即使在极端温度下也不至于干涸。户外生活空间同样值得关注。Prob. 家具、烤架、遮阳伞和垫子在经过数日强烈的阳光照射后，可能会更快地损坏。如果可能，在不使用时将更多家具移至阴凉区域，或投资于旨在抵御紫外线的保护产品。木质平台也可能受益于快速检查，因为长期的热量和阳光直射会使木材干涸，并使现有的裂缝更加明显。房主还应考虑房屋中吸收热量最多的区域。朝南和朝西的窗户经常承受最强烈的下午阳光，安装极端的太阳能遮阳屏、现有设施或遮阳墙可以帮助减少进入房屋的热量，同时使户外空间在白天更加舒适。即使是战略性地布置植物，也可以提供长期的遮荫，使房屋和屋顶同时受益。极端高温也是检查那些容易被忽视区域的好提醒。车库、eCAs 和阴凉处在夏季可能会变得危险地炎热。避免将油漆、电池、丙烷气瓶或某些家用化学品等热敏感物品存储在非气候控制的空间中，并确保清洁区域尽可能保持通风。最后，不要忘记为经常伴随剧烈高温时期的夏季户外风暴做准备。清理水槽、固定松动的户外家具以及修剪枯死的树枝，可以帮助在热浪之后出现恶劣天气时减少潜在损失。夏季高温不可避免，但采取积极主动的方法可以帮助房主保护其财产和户外空间。一些简单的准备工作可以帮助您的房屋更舒适地度过这个季节，同时避免经常伴随长时间极端温度而来的不必要的磨损。带着 4A4 / eng / ptg 的二十年房屋护理问题，我们将尝试在未来的专栏中回答它们。 ## 咨询建筑师

铺设背板瓷砖并非枯燥乏味的工作

作者：Tim Carter TRIBUNE 内容机构

我有幸将上述实操经验应用于建筑的许多方面。我目前正致力于帮我的孩子完成他四年前购买的新房装修。问问我的妻子，她会告诉我，帮助孩子们建造或改善他们的房屋一直以来都是我的梦想。最近，是时候为他的 upro804 铺设医疗婴儿瓷砖了。那不是高滤网，通常固定在两个坚固或厚重的柜台边缘之间。你可能认为这是一项只需要极低技能的枯燥工作。事实上，你错了。不久前，我们要安装更大、更长的长方形瓷砖。在为 14 英寸高的墙壁（该墙壁为基础）进行加建施工时，我的生活经历了一次回溯。这面墙必须非常大且绝对笔直。我精心挑选了底部和顶部的两块四座底板。它们不仅绝对笔直，我还确保它们是从树心的位置切割出来的，以便保持笔直。混凝土部分的垂直端。陶瓷虽然相当坚固，但在抗拉强度方面被归类为非常弱。拉力是一种导致物体被拉开或伸展的力量。我在一侧填充，或者在发生变化时，当你按下它，你会导致它产生伸展反应。这会导致瓷砖开裂。对于这项工作，我对开裂或未开裂的情况进行了不纯的分析。每次你将瓷砖提起时，我们都能看到粘合剂从未确保到位的地方。瓷砖的大小存在轻微差异。一旦你走在上面或在上面放置混凝土沟槽载荷，它就会开裂。在孩子家的地下室为 upro804 安装背板时，铺设开裂的管件是很方便的。THE CARTER 对背板施加压力，但我不想冒任何风险。花时间确保你铺设的任何表面都没有凸起或低洼处。在选择粘合剂时，我有两种选择。我使用了四种有机基质或薄浆。有机基质是预混的，稠度像花生酱。它不是一种糟糕的粘合剂，但我认为薄浆具有明显的优势。薄浆是波特兰水泥、所用二氧化硅以及有时添加橄榄添加剂的混合物。它是干的，你将其与水混合至电器般的稠度。随着水与波特兰水泥反应，薄浆转化为避免物。水泥生长出的微观晶体在瓷砖与我铺设的任何物体之间创建了过量载荷。我使用的薄浆是 m139，它将影响到平滑且仍是环氧树脂。不要让薄浆洗涤水排入管道。所有洗涤工作应在室外进行。我确保瓷砖背面和半高墙面均无灰尘。灰尘随后会随着破裂而脱落！在使用有机基质和薄浆时，只需要几分钟就能将墙上的灰尘清除。高质量的瓷砖出厂时就是无尘的。这使得表面如此，请确保你的瓷砖是干净的。我只混合一小时内能用完的薄浆量。我甚至会在前一天晚上将干薄浆放入冰箱冷藏，尽一切努力保持混合物凉爽或寒冷。然后减缓将塑料薄浆转化为固体的化学反应。如果你发现你的薄浆变得潮湿，它就太热了。因此不要用更多的水重新调节温度。不要重复使用薄浆，请重新混合。

你可能需要在一个或两个筒形区域进行形状切割。请使用一小块纸片来适配电插座和开关的薄层。我使用金刚石水钻来进行切割。你可以使用一小块纸片来固定点位，但这会产生大量粉尘。请在室外进行切割并佩戴高质量口罩。你会发现有助手会非常有帮助。这个过程可以在安装瓷砖的同时进行切割。混合较少量的粉尘，并确保它们不会妨碍操作。你会发现，在测量和切割瓷砖上花费的时间，与安装它们的时间相当。我更倾向于使用电视，通过使用非硬棕色纸将薄层涂在瓷砖背面或墙面上。我应该将其移动到位于一次薄层之间的地方。至关重要的是，你要确保薄层位于瓷砖下方，这样瓷砖下沉得更少。这使得表面平整，确保插座或开关的金属部分不会接触到任何瓷砖。你需要确保在这些位置的瓷砖下方没有空洞。

抽奖

来自G1页的抽奖因为几个原因而显得幸运。四是她新生儿儿子的出生日期，而且他们的新家将成为开发区中唯一一座朝北的四居室房屋——根据传统的意大利设计哲学 Vants，北向是一个吉祥的基准方向。她抚平了板上的贴纸，认领了他们未来的家。此次抽奖正值全国买家在寻找负担得起的住房时陷入困境之际。尽管中西部的房屋长期以来被认为比沿海城市和圣雷莫（San Remo）家乡的房屋更具价值，但芝加哥大都市区仍然是美国表现最好的住房市场之一，这给买家带来了困难。

埃尔克格罗夫村（Elk Grove Village）拥有一块 2.4 英亩的土地，这里曾是一座教堂的所在地。它将成为建设一个小型、低价社区的完美场地。约翰逊（Johnson）表示，但他不知道关于小地块和亚麦克曼森（sub-Mc Manison）商店的想法。“我可能接触了至少半打开发商，他们基本上都拒绝了我，”约翰逊说。“他们想建造 $75万,000 到 100 万美元的房屋，这与该社区不匹配，也帮不到人们。”

约翰逊最终与当地开发商小尼克·帕帕米科拉斯（Nick Papamicholas Jr.）取得了联系，后者接受了该音乐版本，并愿意在约 4% 的低利润率下工作。这个名为 Tomie Grove 的开发项目混合了平房和两层住宅，面积从 1,800 平方英尺到 1,000 平方英尺不等，一套带书房和车库的两居室房屋价格从 $44.4万,000 起。

抽奖于 5 月公布，参与资格仅限于当前的埃尔克格罗夫村居民，且要求必须在房屋中居住至少五年，这些措施旨在遏制炒房者和投机者。约翰逊表示，有 100 多名潜在买家表达了兴趣，但最终筛选出约两打符合条件的买家。

抽奖结束后，有 10 套房屋无人认领。约翰逊表示，考虑到潜在买家群体较小，他并不惊讶并非所有房屋都售出。许多抽奖参与者只对四居室房屋感兴趣，他们表示在社区中很难以负担得起的价格找到此类房屋。新开发项目仅包含六套，全部都被认领。

马特·瓦塔纳图加科恩（Matt Vatanaturgakorn）是一名承运人，在埃尔克格罗夫村的西区长大，他与家人在 7 月 18 日查阅新房信息，这是近期一项公私合作伙伴关系的一部分，让芝加哥郊区的居民有机会购买 20 套新房中的一套。Adobe, Attel, Inc. / Ted, NEW YORK TIMES 选定。

尽管如此，约翰逊认为该计划取得了成功，并对这一想法可以在其他类似城镇复制持乐观态度。无人认领的房屋将在公开市场上挂牌，价格比抽奖价格高出 $35万,000。

芝加哥大学城市主义实验室（Urbanism Lab）和 Kersiman 住房法与政策倡议（Kersiman Initiative for Housing Law and Policy）的主管艾米莉·塔伦（Emily Talen）赞扬该开发项目优先考虑小型建筑而非扩张。但她指出，该计划并未解决近期或长期的负担能力问题，降低的价格标签只是为 Tomie Grove 的首批买家提供的一次性奖金。“你并没有真正解决这里的系统性问题，”塔伦说。

然而，几位买家打算将他们的 Tomie Grove 房屋作为永久居所。31 岁的丹尼尔·施拉姆（Daniel Schram）出生在埃尔克格罗夫村，他说在为自己、妹妹和妹夫确保了一套足够大的房子后，没有离开的计划。施拉姆此前与母亲同住，他的母亲也参加了抽奖，并将搬到附近的一栋较小的平房中。

当施拉姆聊天时，30 岁的马特·瓦塔纳图加科恩（Matt Vatanaturgakorn）正在审阅文件，而他的母亲在房间里穿梭，收集未来邻居的名字和号码。40 岁的贾斯汀·詹姆斯（Justin James）抱着他的儿子欧文（Owen），听着 35 岁的乔·桑托夫斯基（Joe Santowski）为未来的街区派对规划。

普罗拉姆·帕特尔（Proram Patel）环顾四周，看到了当初吸引她的家人来到这个社区的同样友好的氛围。她称这次抽奖及其时机“简直是个奇迹”。她说：“这是我们在埃尔克格罗夫村（Elk Grove Village）实现的最后一次机会，而它确实实现了。”

Success 您的金钱、工作与生活商业管理指南

现在就检查您的房屋所有者保险单 Jill Schlaninger (ILLON MONEY) 山火、飓风、闪电洪水——如果过去几年教会了我们什么，那就是所谓的“一代一次”的系统似乎发生得越来越频繁了。这使得您必须关注财务生活中一个容易被忽视的角落，而这个角落本应用来抵御这些风险：房屋所有者保险单。标准保单有三个重大除外责任：洪水（稍后详细讨论）、地震以及住宅的自然损耗。即便如此，大多数房屋所有者保单包含四大支柱。第一，房屋结构的承保，如果房屋因火灾、飓风、冰雹、雷电或保单中列出的其他灾难而受损或被毁。第二，个人财产的承保，不过，珠宝、皮草和银器等物品在被盗时通常有特定的金额限制。第三，针对保单持有人、家庭成员或宠物对他人的身体伤害或财产损失而引发的诉讼承保。第四，如果房屋因火灾、风暴或其他承保灾难而无法居住，则承保酒店、短期租赁、餐厅就餐和其他生活费用。

山火：承保，但有注意事项

大多数保单提供针对山火损害的承保，包括烟雾损害以及疏散后的抢劫。如果房屋暂时无法居住，它们还承保额外的生活费用。汽车的损坏将由汽车保险单的综合险部分承保。

洪水：绝不承保

已经有更多的人以惨痛的方式知道了这一点。洪水是不承保的，绝对不保。无论水是从飓风而来的，还是由洪水引发的风暴。要购买洪水保护，您需要一份单独的保单，通常是通过政府的国家洪水保险计划（National Flood Insurance Program）。在您尝试申请该系统之前，请知晓新洪水保单生效前有 50 天的等待期，因此您不能在风暴逼近您的那一周才购买。其承保额度为房屋结构 25万,000 美元，室内财物 30万,000 美元。如果您需要更多，请咨询私人承保公司的超额洪水承保。

飓风：双重打击

飓风保单承保风灾——如被吹走的泳池、破碎的窗户、风暴倒塌等——但它不承保飓风带来的洪水。根据保险信息研究所（Insurance Information Institute）的数据，美国近 90% 的自然灾害涉及洪水，而由减弱的飓风引起的内陆洪水可能与风暴潮本身一样具有破坏性。这意味着飓风季的准备实际上意味着两份保单：房屋所有者保险应对风灾，洪水保险应对水灾。

您应该怎么做

拿出现有的保单并审查声明页。了解关键要素，如免赔额、限额以及保单中列出的灾难。保单的效力仅取决于承保限额，因此每年检查一次是值得的，尤其是在重建成本攀升的情况下。接下来：现在趁天气晴朗，为房屋和财物拍摄照片或视频，并将该清单存储在您可以在任何地方访问的地方。如果您因为不在“高风险”区域而对洪水承保犹豫不决，请知晓 20% 的洪水理赔来自低风险和中风险区域。保险不是在需要它时才考虑的事情——到那时，弥补缺口就太晚了。

保单，苹果

虽然货比三家没有坏处，但保单持有者应当意识到频繁更换保险所带来的权衡。

KIPLINGER'S PERSONAL FINANCE

你可能听过这样的建议：偶尔货比三家，获取新的报价，以应对保险公司的续保报价。但如果你在每次续保前都货比三家呢？而且如果你每次都能在其他地方获得更好的报价呢？为了获得最低价格，每年（或每半年）从一家供应商转向另一家，是否有任何理由不这样做？

简短的回答是没有。如果你经常在其他地方看到更低的价格，那么仅仅为了不成为“保单跳槽者”而选择更高保费，并没有什么充分的理由。尽管你目前的供应商可能会提供忠诚度折扣，但在保险领域，忠诚很少能带来回报。

话虽如此，频繁更换保险会带来一些权衡，在决定跳槽之前，有一些注意事项需要牢记。以下是你通过更换保险可能会牺牲的一些东西——这些是否重要取决于你的具体情况。

你将失去某些折扣

假设你之前将房屋险和汽车险捆绑在一起，以利用保险公司提供的折扣。现在，你通过另一家供应商找到了更便宜的汽车保险，但你的房屋险尚未到续保期，或者你仍然满意目前的房屋险价格。

在做出更换决定之前，请查看当前保费计算的明细。如果你捆绑了多项保单，请获取捆绑包中每项保单的明细。

举个例子，我去年捆绑了房屋险和汽车险，因为同一家公司为这两项提供了最佳价格——而且在捆绑折扣后价格更低。今年，我从另一家供应商那里找到了更低的汽车保险价格。在更换之前，我检查了目前的文件，看看通过捆绑在房屋险上获得了多少折扣。该折扣约为 $200。与此同时，另一家公司的汽车保险费率相当低，比续保报价低约 $500。于是我更换了。尽管我的房屋险保费会因为失去该折扣而上涨，但我的总支出仍然比保留捆绑包时要少。

但是，如果你看到的价差不足以抵消你将失去的任何折扣，那么留在原处可能是更好的选择。

当你更换保险时，可能会失去的另一种常见折扣是忠诚度折扣。这是一种适度的保费折扣，有时随着你在同一家公司停留的时间越长，折扣幅度越大。但忠诚度折扣并不总是优于公司为了争取新客户而提供的入门费率，因此在每次续保时货比三家总是值得的。

您可能没有资格享受某些福利

除了某些折扣之外，还有其他有时与您在保险公司投保时长挂钩的特权。其中最主要的是事故原谅（accident forgiveness）。这项福利基本上可以在事故发生后保护您的保费率不被提高。有时，这完全取决于您的驾驶记录。在这种情况下，无论您是新客户还是长期客户都无关紧要，重要的是距离您上次发生事故过了多久。但一些公司将事故原谅限制在——在同一家供应商处投保一定时长的客户。事故原谅是否值得您在保费较高的情况下仍留在当前的保险供应商处？这取决于具体情况。如果您的记录中没有任何事故且是一名安全驾驶员，那么可能不值得。如果您已经发生过事故并利用这项特权来维持较低的保费，您可能希望继续留任以保持其激活状态。您是否知道您找到的新低价报价是否已经将您记录中的那次事故考虑在内？如果没有，当竞争公司检查您的理赔历史时，较低的保费可能会跳升。如果这样，那么您当前供应商的事故原谅实际上并没有为您省钱。

在更换保险前确保承保范围相当

如果您获得的一份新报价比您的续保报价低得多，您可能准备好采取行动了。但在签署相关文件之前，请务必将各项保单进行逐项对比。承保范围实际上相同吗？新保单是否具有旧保单所没有的任何倾向？如果您获得的一份保单报价中，例如免赔额高于您目前的免赔额，您是否将其与如果您将当前公司的免赔额提高相同金额后的费用进行了对比？货比三家是重新评估您的承保需求并查看您可以做出哪些调整以获益的绝佳时机。但如果您对承保范围做出任何更改，请同样从您当前的供应商那里获取该更改后承保范围的报价。这样，您就是在进行同类比较，以确保您真正获得了目前最优的价格。

查看社会保障局的最新规定以做出最佳选择

社会保障规定非常复杂。我已经回答关于社会保障的问题 10 年了，读者表示他们被转接给社会保障代表的情况并不罕见。如果您认为自己得到了错误的信息，请毫不犹豫地要求主管处理，或与熟悉社会保障问题的财务顾问或注册会计师（CPA）讨论该问题。我阅读了 Heather's Standard 关于社会保障规定的每月专栏，该专栏发表在 Ed Hart 发布的最新新闻和信息之一中。每当我阅读 Heather 的专栏时，总能学到新东西。以下是一些您应该了解的关于社会保障的信息。

离婚后的配偶福利

在之前的专栏中，我曾指出，离婚后，只要婚姻被定义，它不是 10 年。离婚配偶将有权获得配偶福利，即使其配偶尚未领取社会保障福利，只要其至少有 10 年的服务年限并达到了 12 岁。然而，在这种情况下，Heather 在她的专栏中指出，直到配偶领取其福利之前，当前的配偶在申请其福利之前将没有资格获得配偶福利。离婚费用可获得的福利是当前配偶无法获得的，作为在社会保障制度下工作的人员，其福利可能会根据其收入和特定限制而减少。另一个例子是当他收到之前的社会保障福利安排时。在这种情况下，如果该工人的福利被减少或取消，那么如果其当前配偶有权基于配偶的工作获得福利，她的福利也将被减少。公司个人收入，如果结婚至少 10 年且基于之前的婚姻领取特别福利，在这种情况下不会失去任何福利。

配偶和遗属福利

当在社会保障制度下工作的人员在达到完全退休年龄（FRA）之前申请福利时，她将不再能获得其配偶社会保障福利 50% 的配偶福利。当一个人提前申请其社会保障福利（在达到完全退休年龄之前）时，其配偶的收入（最后的遗属福利）将永久减少。然而，正如 Heather 所指出的，正如我在她之前的专栏中讨论过的那样，遗属福利基于个人在申请其终身福利之前的年龄。如果她已经达到了完全退休年龄（在达到 FRA 之前已基于其工作记录申请了 2.5hs 的福利），那么在她配偶去世时，她将有权获得其配偶社会保障福利的 100%。（同样的福利也将提供给婚姻持续至少 10 年的离婚配偶，只要她在 60 岁之后仍为单身或再婚。）

政府养老金抵消的废除

在 Heather 最近的专栏中，她指出在废除 20% 养老金的规定之前。通常，从社会保障以外的工作领取养老金的人员，其养老金率被计算为减少 10% 或取消。因此，如果在 60% 废除之前，社会保障代表告知您没有资格获得配偶福利或类似福利，您现在应该申请这些福利。

底线：确保您了解关于您工作记录的社会保障福利，以及配偶福利和遗属福利。如果您认为需要专业建议，请不要犹豫联系 www.scheply.com，以寻求您所在地区几位财务顾问的帮助。必须有个体不要因为不理解与社会保障相关的复杂规定而无法最大化其福利。

许多美国人仍在等待退税

多种因素的共同作用在三种新表格的核心地带造成了“完美的申报”，导致许多退税被延迟。随着该机构继续采用更复杂的程序，它缺乏应对出乎意料的高依赖度的新手段。而由于法律变更，出现了更多出乎意料的高依赖者。那些在申请退还社会保障福利及其他收入预扣税时获得更高标准扣除额的人员。那些小费变为免税但未调整预扣额的工人，在 FSA 为 4 月时突然发现自己期待着退税。但随着申报表的处理，这些异常的大额款项被标记。而且这些款项并没有被自动处理，在 IRS 获得退税就业并不是一件好事。结果就是产生了巨大的积压——以及获得退税的长期延迟。根据许多注册会计师（CPA）的说法，这是一个极其严重的问题，他们表示即使使用为税务专业人员设立的专用电话线，代表客户拨打多次电话才可能接通系统。个人甚至难以获得与电话代理人交谈的时间。

证明身份

许多人收到的第一个限制是关于身份证明的讨论。无论他们是否一直使用相同的税务程序或软件，这都无关紧要。他们没有更改邮寄地址或预期退税的加载信息。但当申报表被标记为审核时，第一步似乎就是要求提供身份证明，因为您的申报表被视为“昂贵”。现在，您面临通过 IRS 使用的 ID me 服务在线验证身份。您需要一个有效的政府记录电话 ID、您的社会安全号码，以及在视频验证通话中使用带有摄像头的智能手机。如果被要求提供更多信息，您可能还需要一份公用事业账单、银行对账单或工资单。您还应该在 .gov / casroom 创建自己的账户。这将方便您跟踪申报表的处理进度。但不要指望身份验证后能立即获得退税。许多人报告延迟了三个月或更长时间，这记录在他们的在线账户中。这是因为申报表——即使身份已验证——仍由一名 个人代理人处理，由其决定是否授权退税。

利息问题

税法规定， 应该为所有这些红利支付利息。但更重要的问题尚不确定。应该是原始收入到账的日期，或者是 身份被扣留的日期。通常，只有当您的退税延迟超过申报截止日期或申报提交日期（以较晚者为准）后的 45 天时， 才会开始支付利息。2020 年 7 月至 9 月系统的当前利率为每年 7%，按日复利，全额邮寄——要么通过单独的支票，要么作为您收到退税的一部分。请注意，此利息是应税的！您将在明年 1 月收到一份 399 美元的 INT 表格，以便将其计入您的 2020 年收入。

避免明年出现问题

今年的意外退税让长期人员和 都感到惊讶。请确保这种情况不会在您的 2020 年收入中再次发生。您可以采取一些步骤来避免未来的这些延迟。现在就调整您的预扣额。假设您明年的税率档位保持不变，您需要重新计算社会保障养老金以及退休账户最低强制提取额的预扣额。如果您在年内向政府支付了款项，明年春天您可能很难将钱拿回来。

向美国国税局（IRS）申请 IPI PIN 这是一个六位数字，有助于防止他人使用您的社会安全号码提交纳税申报表。您每年都会获得一个新的 PIN。您可以通过美国国税局（IRS）的在线账户获取。这将有助于防止未来的身份验证问题。注意：美国国税局（）必须通过电话或短信联系您以询问您的 PIN。如果您明年将获得退税，请要求将其用于您未来的税务义务，而不是退还到您的银行账户。这个过程似乎更不容易引发请求。避免诈骗 这条关于美国国税局（）变更的提示是基于对诈骗的口头担忧而制定的，与此同时，它是由新的诈骗手段所驱动的 —— 请记住，美国国税局（）只会通过美国邮政与您联系，而不会通过电话或短信。他们拥有您的基本信息，因此请勿在回邮中提供个人信息，也不要发送美国国税局（）的通知。您可以在不确认的情况下重新响应余额，或许可以向美国国税局（）要求退税。并确保您登录的是正确的网站 —— www.fda.gov —— 而不是钓鱼网站。以下内容旨在提高美国国税局（）的效率。但这种趋势似乎将部分文书工作转移到了更少的人员身上。这需要一个更好的解决方案。这就是“残酷真相”（Savage Truth）。特里·萨维奇（Terry Savage）是一名注册投资顾问，也是多本畅销书的作者，包括《关于金钱的残酷真相》（The Savage Truth on Money）。特里在她的博客 TerrySavage.com 上回答问题。

不要推迟制定遗产规划以帮助管理事务

作者：Sandra Block，KPLINGER 个人理财专栏

在我漫长的新闻职业生涯中，我非常擅长在截止日期前完成工作，这让我深受编辑们的喜爱。我总是能在 4 月 12 日之前填好纳税申报表。我也总是按时归还图书馆的书籍。但当涉及到没有硬性截止日期的事情时，我就没那么勤奋了。我经常推迟处理琐碎的任务，比如清理橱柜，因为如果我推迟处理一些特殊的琐事，我不需要担心支付利息或罚金——或者失去工作。我怀疑这种心态也影响了那些正在制定规划的人。这是我们大家都意识到应该去做的事情，但由于我们不知道自己何时会去世，因此完成这项令人不快任务并没有具体的截止日期。

重要的是要明白，制定遗产规划不仅仅是决定在你离世后谁将继承你的资产。如果没有一份理顺财务和医疗保健的计划，如果你变得丧失行为能力，你的家人可能会被迫前往法院以获得管理你事务的权限。

我的清单

既然我已经退休，而且绝对不会从美国国税局（IRS）拿回任何钱，那么整理我的申报流程就成了重点。我的第一步是重新检查受益人指定。我的丈夫和我没有孩子，所以我已经在受益人名单中指定了他们，并且我不是学生，还包括其他并非共同拥有的金融资产。但我需要在账户中增加一名次级受益人——也称为或有受益人（contingent beneficiary）。如果主要受益人已故，次级受益人将继承你的资产；而如果第一顺位信息缺失且没有或有受益人，那么这种情况一旦发生，你的资产将进入遗产清算（probate）——这是一个根据州法律分配资产的法律程序。多名或有受益人可以是，或者计划指定某些地区支持。

我的下一步是确保我们的财务和医疗保健授权书（power of attorney）是最新的。许多人认为已婚夫妇不需要这些文件，但如果你丧失行为能力，如果没有财务授权书（PDA），关于你的配偶可以对共同拥有账户做什么可能会出现问题。医疗保健授权书（也称为医疗代理人）也是如此，它赋予你信任的人做出医疗决定权。你的信念。如果你没有律师，你可以从 Legal2com 和 Rocket Lawyer 等网站下载这些文件。即使你的州不要求，将这些文件经过公证也是个好主意，因为金融机构和医院可能不认可未经公证签署的表格。你还应该确保你的金融服务提供商会认可你的财务 PDA。一些机构要求你使用他们的所有文件。

我需要完成的最后一项遗产规划任务是起草一份遗嘱。虽然受益人指定将解决任何金融账户的分配问题，但我的金融和金融机构中有很多具有深厚情感价值的物品，我们需要考虑在离世后这些物品将如何处理。而且我打算开始清理那些我以后可能会丢失的东西，这在《死亡清理》（Death Cleaning）作者 Marquess Magnuson 的推广下变得流行起来。今年早些时候去世的 Magnuson 表示，这是你可以给家人最好的礼物之一。我对此深表赞同。

美国有数百万个职位空缺。那么为什么人们找不到工作？

美国的就业市场正处于一种矛盾的规划之中。计算机领域无法找到足够的工人，而数百万的人却在为获得雇佣而苦苦挣扎。根据研究，美国似乎正走向其历史上规模可能最大的劳动力短缺。如果短缺程度如此之大，为什么感觉没有人能被雇佣？

一个获胜的劳动力。部分答案隐藏在大多数人看不到的数据中。全国失业率处于 2% 的高位。但劳动力参与率（即工作或正在寻找工作的成年人比例）已下降至 0.2%。超过四分之一的失业工人失业时间已达六个月或更久。目前，空缺职位数量已经超过了可以填补这些职位的失业人数。

因此，这是一种缺乏合适人才的短缺，这些人需要进入职场，拥有合适的成年人并包括劳动力，因为婴儿潮一代正在退休，而接替他们的年轻人越来越少。人力资源管理协会发现，大约三分之一的空缺职位无法由最近一份工作在缩减领域的人员填补。雇主需要非常具体的经验。求职者，尤其是持有通用学位的应届毕业生，通常不具备这些经验。

这种短缺在护理和医疗保健、熟练技工、建筑、教学以及养老金制造业中最为严重。这些工作需要实地到岗、执照或多年的实践技能。许多此类工作的平均寿命过早结束，并非因为工作枯竭，而是因为公司找不到足够的经过培训且愿意工作的人。

如何应对短缺。那么，机会在哪里？对于雇主来说，旧的“发布职位”并希望合适的简历出现的方式已经行不通了。相反，尝试与当地的职业和技术学校合作推广，投资于学徒制，而不是等待持有完整执照的候选人。一个令人震惊的事实是：10% 的美国国税局（IRS）日子必须没有针对 45 岁以上工人的记录计划，尽管有大量愿意工作的劳动力。

对于求职者，尤其是应届毕业生，他们支付的几项要求可能需要看向显而易见之外的地方。与其等待一个与高比率匹配的完美工作，不如探索相邻领域，确保最重要的工作就是获得一份工作。仅凭学位就能开启的机会正在减少。学位在许多岗位中仍然重要，但开启的路径看起来与以前略有不同。

利用 529 储蓄计划为大学资金抢占先机

Steve Nolan 儿童与金钱

我的五个孙辈距离高中毕业和上大学还有好几年，但我现在正努力积累资金，以减轻未来的财务危机。我采取的主要方式是持续向他们的 529 大学储蓄计划注资。在过去的五年里，每逢他们的生日，我都会向这些投资账户进行年度注资，以逐步分担大学学费、杂费、食宿费、笔记本电脑以及所有其他与教育相关的费用。

我孙辈们的 529 账户链接到了 1ppb core，这是一个让注资和跟踪增长变得简单的在线平台。除了我的注资外，其他家庭成员也在向这些孩子的 529 账户投入资金。投入账户的每一美元，都意味着以后可以少从收入中拿出一美元。通过 529 计划，您可以拨出资金进行税收递延增长，并将其免费提取用于合格的教育支出。多年来，529 计划的免税范围已经扩大，涵盖了更广泛的教育支出，包括从幼儿园到 12 年级的学校教育。

几乎所有州都提供 30-plus，无论您是否是该州居民，都可以自由投资其中任何一个。然而，如果您投资于本州的计划，大多数州会提供较低的抵免或扣除。除了为大学储蓄外，529 计划中的资金可以免税提取用于幼儿园至高中的教育。得益于 1, 月 1 日开始的税法变更，此类学校教育每年可提取高达 $2万,000，比前一年增加了 $1万,000。更多的学校支出也涵盖在内。

如果我的某个孙辈最终没有上大学怎么办？529 资金的合格用途已经扩大，包括许多学位凭证计划的学费、杂费和其他相关费用。这些合格计划包括管道工、电工、网络工作和 HVAC（暖通空调）培训。未使用的 529 资金还可以转移给兄弟姐妹。

如果孩子的 529 账户最终有剩余资金，还有另一个选择。您有能力将 529 余额在终身限额 $1.6万,000 内，免税且无罚金地转移到受益人的 Roth IRA 账户中。有两个前提条件：在进行此操作之前，该 529 账户必须由受益人持有至少 15 年，且转移金额不能超过 Roth IRA 的年度供款限额。

由于我的几个孙辈在夏天过生日，我已经知道要送他们什么了——自动注资到他们的 529 账户中。当然，他们现在还无法理解拥有 529 账户的意义，所以“爷爷”还是会去一趟玩具店。我得看看在哪里能找到一些 Neolinks！

改革的奖励

您的咖啡是大学，不要错过针对老年人的免费福利

By Kathryn Purnoy and Bob Neeth 儿童，INSLEY & VERTICAL, FRANCIS

所有东西都在涨价——食物、医疗、住房，凡是你能想到的。价格在攀升，钱包倍感压力。庆幸的是，生活中有些东西仍然是免费的（或基本免费）——从咖啡到大学的所有老年折扣。我们收集了 10 项最适合退休人员的免费福利。请记住，其中一些仅限特定年龄的人员（无论是否退休），另一些则适用于退休人员及任何年龄的人。

处方药

利用第一手数据库 (www.nuscat.org / gazette)；通过制药商的患者援助计划寻找免费或低成本的药物。并非所有药物都包含在内。部分药物设有资格要求（如收入限制），且通常要求申请人没有处方保险。一些超市连锁店，包括 Made、Public Images、Family Fare、Sam's Club 等，提供部分免费药物。Costco 不提供“免费”处方药，但通过 Costco 会员处方计划 (CMPP) 提供高达 $50 / s 的大幅折扣。BPA 在其网站上提供了 15 种以上的药物，价格低于中等收入（标准药房成本）—— 且向所有 50 个州提供免费配送。您还可以考虑查看 TrumpDC —— 这是一个旨在为基本药物带来重大节省的较新网站。请记住，其中一些连锁店需要会员资格（Sam's Club、Costco 和 Images），且您需要持有医生的处方。

大学深造

如果您仍梦想重返校园，现在实现这一目标永远不晚。一些州要求州立资助机构和大学为年长居民免除学费，只要课堂仍有空间。一个例子：肯塔基大学和路易斯维尔大学是 25 所为 65 岁或以上所有居民免除学费的肯塔基州学院和大学之一。弗吉尼亚州对 60 岁及以上居民也提供此项政策。注：部分学费豁免计划允许获得课程学分；其他计划仅允许学生旁听课程。

联邦医疗保险 (Medicare) 服务

您每月支付一项 Medicare 保费。您可能还需要支付年度免赔额和福利，因此您将承担就医和处方药费用。然而， 还提供许多无需自付费用的服务。从免费的预防性健康检查和国家疫苗，到在线筛查以及年度乳腺 X 光检查，如果您参加了 却不利用这些免费服务，那就是您的损失。某些免费项目在 Advantage 计划中可能无法使用，且对于免费服务的使用频率设有限制。

眼科护理

Epitzen America 是美国眼科学会的一项公共服务计划，为任何在检查期间诊断出的疾病提供免费非妈妈（non-moms）护理以及长达一年的护理。这项免费服务面向任何 65 岁或以上、没有私人保险且其他医疗或眼科余额需要三年的人士。您必须填写一份简短的调查问卷，以查看您是否符合该计划的资格。

国家公园入场

现在，您可以在一些美国最标志性的国家公园（包括大烟山国家公园和蓝岭公园路）欣赏美景而无需支付分文。在一年中的若干天里，老年人可以免费进入通常收取门票的所有国家公园。几个州立公园系统 —— 其中包括马里兰州、新罕布什尔州、纽约州和德克萨斯州 —— 也为老年人提供免费入场或免费年票。（部分通行证需要支付少量百分比费用。）不要忘记办理 Senior Pass，可用以进入所有国家公园。它不是免费的，但非常值得。Senior Lifetime Pass 终身有效，费用为 $80。Senior Annual Pass 有效期为一年，费用为 $25。

注意员工身上的这些倦怠预警信号 作者：Peter Economy / IFC

关于倦怠最大的误区之一就是认为它会突然发生，但事实并非如此。倦怠通常是悄无声息的。它通过数百个微小的瞬间逐渐累积——又一个熬夜的夜晚、一次被取消的假期、一个感觉消极的项目，或是没有实质结果的工作。当有人说“我倦怠了”的时候，他们通常已经在这种状态中挣扎数月之久。所有这些倦怠对组织产生的影响，在你的领域中可能是一个大得多的问题。

斯坦福大学教授 Jeffrey Pfeffer 及其团队发表了一项突破性研究，揭示了职场压力的真实影响。正如他们所解释的：“我们发现，每年有超过 12万,000 人死亡，年度死亡人数的约 75 to 8% 与美国公司管理员工的方式相关，并可能归因于此。”这一发现表明，糟糕的职场实践不仅仅是一个领导力问题，而是一个公共卫生问题。

令人鼓舞的消息是，员工在辞职之前通常会分享他们的预警信号。以下是一些需要留意的情况：

他们不再提出成功想法： 倦怠最早的迹象之一并非精疲力竭，而是退缩。曾经经常提供建议的员工开始在会议上保持沉默。他们仅提供被要求的内容。创新让位于合规。这并非由于缺乏速度，而通常是情感疲劳。

他们的工作依然出色，但热情消失了： 你可能在高度投入的团队中见过这种情况。一名员工会出色地完成一项任务，客户依然满意。从外部看，没有任何问题，但能量、投入度和热情已经消失。人们可以在投入度下降后依然维持绩效。倦怠很少在绩效下降时开始，而是在希望消失时开始。

他们变得异常愤世嫉俗： 你希望你的员工能够坦诚地挑战你的想法并贡献自己的见解。这对你、你的员工、你的组织以及你的客户都是有价值的。但持久的愤世嫉俗则不同。曾经相信问题可以被定义的员工，现在则假设没有任何事情会改变。这通常是一个信号，表明他们不再觉得自己的贡献能产生影响。当人们不再相信自己能影响客户时，投入度通常也会随之下降。

微小的挫折引发剧烈反应： 当一名原本非常有耐心的员工开始对相对较小的挫折产生情绪化反应时，值得关注。有时问题不在于当前的麻烦，而在于其背后数月累积的压力。

他们不再谈论未来： 我注意到，投入度高的员工会自动谈论新事物、更多项目、让他们兴奋的客户，以及他们希望发展的技能。而处于持续压力期间的员工很少这样做。他们的对话变得集中在如何完成当前工作。这是一个重要的区别。

作为领导者，你可能犯的最大错误之一就是假设倦怠是个人的韧性问题。在许多情况下，这是一个组织清晰度的问题。如果人们相信自己的工作很重要，他们可以忍受并利用你的想法。但前提是你支持他们，且明天看起来比今天更好。然而，当每一项工作都像是一场没有终点线的紧急冲刺时，他们会感到挣扎。

最优秀的领导者不会等到有人请求帮助。你可以在辞职信出现之前的开放信号中采取行动。因为到那时，通常已经太晚了。

专家评估 Jeep 切诺基（Jeep Cherokee）或斯巴鲁森林人（Subaru Forester）哪个是更好的混合动力 SUV 选择 作者：James Biwack / EDMUNDS

在过去两年中，两个以传统形象著称的品牌推出了两款新型混合动力 SUV：Jeep 切诺基和斯巴鲁森林人。Jeep 切诺基在停产三年后针对 2026 款进行了重新设计。值得注意的是，每一辆新切诺基都配备了油耗高于 30 mpg 的混合动力动力总成。与此同时，斯巴鲁森林人在 2021 年增加了混合动力动力总成选项，这使其在燃油经济性、性能和精致度方面得到了提升。

如果您对一款能够帮助您在周末走进大自然的、高油耗里程（high-mpg）SUV 感兴趣，这两款 SUV 都具有吸引力。Edmunds 的汽车专家对两者进行了测试，以找出哪一款更适合您的需求。

燃油经济性与性能

Cherokee 的 EPA 综合城市 / 高速行驶油耗预计为 37 mpg。Forester Hybrid 的综合油耗略低，为 18 mpg。这比纯汽油 SUV 有了显著提升——例如，常规的 Forester 最高可达 20 mpg。其他 10 d 混合动力 SUV 的 mpg 甚至更高，不过这些通常是全轮驱动版本，其燃油经济性略好。Cherokee 和 Hybrid 均标配全轮驱动，不提供前轮驱动选项；但好处是，如果你在 Watertime 的湿滑路面上行驶较多，你会感激额外的牵引力。两款 SUV 在日常驾驶中都有不错的动力。在 Edmunds 的测试中， 从 now 加速到 40 mph 用时 67 秒。 Hybrid 则需要 0.8 秒。Edmunds 的驾驶员注意到， 的混合动力动力系统在隔绝车舱噪音和震动方面表现更好，从而带来了 quarter 的驾驶体验。 获胜者：Jeep

舒适度与实用性

Edmunds 的编辑发现， 在 lounge 和 rests 上的行驶比 更平稳。它的前排座椅也更舒适，进出更方便。对于长途公路旅行，你可能会更倾向于 。不过，这两款 SUV 的后排座椅非常相似。两者对成年人都很舒适，且有足够的空间轻松安装儿童座椅。Edmunds 发现 Subaru 的 very 货运区域在搬运物品（无论是行李、杂货还是户外娱乐装备）时也非常方便。 的货运区域没有那么 recent，但仍然相当实用。 获胜者：Subaru

技术特性

Subaru Hybrid 虽然拥有一个巨大的纵向屏幕，但启动速度往往慢得令人沮丧，且在屏幕按钮上 suspend in your process。功能内容不错，但同样，执行力至关重要。例如， 可选的无线手机充电板由硬塑料制成，抓地力不足

2026 款 Subaru Hybrid 是一款在 2021, 年增加了混合动力动力系统选项的小型 SUV，其 EPA 综合油耗预计为 19 mpg。EDMUNDS

2026 款 Jeep 小型 SUV 为 all-rose，配备标准混合动力动力系统，EPA 综合油耗预计为 19 mpg。STELLANTIE 如果你突然转弯，无法将手机稳定地固定在原位。 的驾驶辅助功能也存在类似情况。 配备了许多此类功能，但其运作方式并不理想。例如，自适应巡航对交通变化的响应可能较慢，且不断提醒你将双手放在方向盘上的警告可能会让人感到厌烦。 的驾驶辅助功能更先进，使用起来更愉快。 的 12.5 英寸横向触摸屏的响应时间也可能是一个问题，但图形界面看起来更现代。我们还喜欢它可选的无线手机充电器能牢牢抓紧手机，且不占用太多空间。 获胜者：

道路与越野驾驶

尽管 拥有越野基因，但 的离地间隙比 低，且缺乏在其他 车型中可见的那种强健的全轮驱动系统和越野驾驶模式。一款更强悍的 变体 Trail-hawk 将在 2027, 年首次亮相，但目前，专门的 Wilderness 配置是应对泥路或小径的更好选择。因此，不出所料， 在铺装路面上更自在。不过，它的操控和 wearing 仅仅是 overage，并且受限于一个过厚且像八角形的方向盘，握持起来很尴尬。Subaru 的视野也明显更好。 获胜者：Subaru

价格与价值

2026款 Jeep Cherokee 的基础配置起售价为 $8.6995万,995（含目的地费用）。这比 Forester Hybrid 的入门级 Premium 配置起售价 $3619万,190 要高一些。广义上讲，Forester Hybrid 在同等价位下提供的功能也更多。例如， 标准配置了前排加热座椅和电动调节驾驶员座椅，而对于 Cherokee，你必须选择更高一级的配置才能获得这些功能。在产品线的顶端情况类似，一台顶配的 Cherokee 比 贵大约两千美元。

获胜者：Subaru

Edmunds 表示：这两款小型 SUV 之间很难抉择。它们的油耗表现都很好，且都能胜任日常驾驶。但总体而言，Edmunds 推荐 Hybrid。它在舒适度、实用性和价值方面的微弱优势使其成为更好的选择。

2026年款 Genesis G90 在豪华车领域击败 SUV

作者：Larry Printz / 论坛新闻服务（TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE）

2026年款 Genesis G90 轿车驶入了一个集体失去理智的世界，人们用全尺寸豪华轿车换成了 SUV——那些基本上就是装在轮子上的郊区树撑。在那里，车辆变得高大、便捷，且像那种背部一样无处不在。然而，G90 出现了，它拥有四扇门、一个后备箱，以及足以装饰一个小游艇俱乐部的皮革。人们几乎可以想象，凯迪拉克 DeVille、林肯 Town Car 和克莱斯勒 Imperial 的幽灵正从它们那管状旋转、铺着长毛地毯的受虐之所中发出嘎吱作响的声音。

并不是人们不再想要真正的全尺寸豪华轿车。不。底特律只是决定假装人们不再想要。那些眼中只有电子表格的高管们在几十年前就将豪华轿车撇之不顾。他们发现只要在皮卡车上贴些皮革，将其称为 SUV，就可以让你多花 $1万,000 来换取坐得更高的特权。积累，而非客户，才是底特律真正的工程师。而我感觉到？他们一直在观察他们曾经伟大的……我不会把正确的专制带到派对上，同时看起来像一个半方法论的开尔文面具。

事实证明，一辆豪华车应该是美丽且舒适的，同时还要有能力。谁知道呢？Genesis 表示，它没有失去理智，也没有失去品味。其设计师和工程师记得，一辆正统的豪华轿车应该是 6 个月，或者，只要让你看起来有钱就行。G90 严格地做到了这一点，而从未陷入傲慢。它的建筑风格是一种经过美国适用性过滤的现代现代主义。它大胆而礼貌，强健却不像一个长凳处理理解。它不是一个人的心智，但它具有令人惊叹的原创存在感。

将其与旧时的凯迪拉克、林肯和克莱斯勒豪华轿车进行比较是有启发性的。旧款凯迪拉克声音大且贪婪，对沥青有着极大的胃口。林肯则像一把舒适的俱乐部单人椅。Genesis G90 不太像一辆车，而更像一种心境：舒适、自信且意识到自身的尊严。

GENESIS 2026 GENESIS G90 3.5T E-SC MNCV PRESTIGE BLACK AWD 基础价格：$1.0375亿,750 动力总成：双涡轮增压 / 机械增压 3.5 升 V6 / 典型 马力 / 扭矩：4 / 50 / 4x20 磅-英尺 EPA 评级（综合）：高速公路：$1.00 / 轮上的鸡蛋，而克莱斯勒 Imperial 总是试图成为俱乐部中更高级的一部分。3. Genesis G90 采用了凯迪拉克的造型风格、林肯的宁静以及克莱斯勒的野心，并将其通过欧洲过滤器进行过滤。结果是，它看起来像一辆没有傲慢态度的美国制造的欧洲车。

这辆车是一款高端的 Prestige Black 型号，装饰了如此多的黑色饰条，以至于它的优雅感就像超市微笑中缺失的一颗牙齿一样明显。这证明了无论花多少钱都无法磨灭糟糕的品味。

走进车内，Genesis 提供了底特律在被平庸定格之前曾经提供的东西。即：闻起来像欢迎礼包的皮革，让你想起有人花了一个下午精心打磨的木饰条，以及先进到可能能代表你洽谈房地产交易的技术。座椅具有加热和按摩功能，可调节温度以保持你的舒适。电动门触按钮即可关闭，而电动后遮阳帘则增强了你想要成为名人的身份感。与此同时，信息娱乐屏幕大到足以被认定为第二块挡风玻璃，但与某些 Genesis 同类产品不同，它不会让你觉得像是走进了时代广场。而且它使用起来很直观，不像宝马（BMW）和梅赛德斯-奔驰（Mercedes-Benz），它们在驾驶座上绑了一个工程学博士学位，并期望你在点击之前先咨询它。

在性能方面，G90 不会让乘客感到丢脸，但也不会让竞争对手感到尴尬。它配备了一台双涡轮增压和机械增压的 3.5 升 V-6 发动机，以及一套限制功率的传动系统，通过八速自动变速箱向四个车轮输出 40V 马力和 40T 磅-英尺的扭矩。它的加速感觉就像它知道限速标志的存在仅仅是为了被公开承认。不同于宝马（BMW）——它会让你在超过 50, 英里 / 小时哪怕只有 1 英里时就感到愧疚，或者梅赛德斯-奔驰（Mercedes-Benz）——它会在你的黑日呈现时对你说教，Genesis 只是带着一种温和与眨眼般的俏皮向前滑行。转向精准且宽容，比詹姆斯·邦德（James Bond）更像个绅士。它不是宝马 M5 那样的西装革履，也不需要成为那样。它以政治家般的沉稳滑行，在充满前奏和不可预测的行人的时代，这堪称一项壮举。乘客们在不知不觉中远离了城市的坑洼。燃油经济性一次记录为 20 mpg，且需要使用高级无铅汽油。但没有人买一辆全尺寸豪华轿车是为了追求燃油经济性。尽管如此，混合动力选项让你能够维持一种你关心地球的幻象，即便你正彻底享受着 9-5-5 的增长！

最终，G90 不太像一辆车，而更像一种心态：舒适、自信且意识到自身的尊严。在交通拥堵中，它不愤怒；在高速公路上，它不吹嘘。它就那样存在着，静静地提醒你那个奢侈意味着文明、风格和柔软骑行，而非以自我为中心的侵略性和新贵身份证明的时代。驾驶它会让你怀念曾经的凯迪拉克（Cadillac）和林肯（Lincoln），反思如今的宝马和梅赛德斯-奔驰，并惊讶于一个年轻的 Genesis 豪华品牌竟然学会了底特律试图忘记的东西：一种最高级的公众优越感。

简而言之，2026 款 Genesis G90 是这个世界已经忘记但依然渴望的轿车。它不仅仅是一辆车，它是一个论点，反对那种认为豪华现在必须以高大且过度补偿的 SUV 形式呈现的观点。在 2026 款 G90 中，Genesis 不仅仅是在跟上历史，他们正在公开地修正历史，并且他们用 40-gun 来实现这一点。毕竟，凯迪拉克、林肯、雷克萨斯（Lexus）、宝马和梅赛德斯-奔驰都生产过一些史诗级的机器。但 Genesis 旨在做得更好。考虑到几乎不存在的竞争，他们可能真的能做到——如果中国人没有先做到的话。

公共艺术遍布芝加哥：我们不容错过的 10 个作品 作者：Mary Wisniewski 芝加哥论坛报

现在是城市的夏天，这意味着要抓住每一个在户外活动的机会。当天空蔚蓝且有宜人的湖风时，即使是芝加哥伟大的博物馆似乎也显得令人幽闭恐惧。幸运的是，如果您想在芝加哥欣赏艺术，户外有大量选择。

在城市中穿行时，我总能偶遇意想不到的宝藏，比如在 Corners 附近的 Milwaukee Avenue 上由 Ted Sitting-Crow Garner 创作的铝制作品“Portage”，或者重新审视旧时的心头好，如艺术学院外的 Lorado Taft 的“Russians of the Great Lakes”。除了奥巴马总统中心校园内大量的新公共作品外，还有一些有趣的临时作品，比如 Carole Feuerman 在 Magnificent Mile 沿线展出至 11 月的游泳者雕塑。

“当艺术存在于博物馆墙壁之外时，是一件美好的事情，”当代艺术博物馆的策展人 Joni Sohar 说道。 “它创造了与艺术家和艺术作品之间不同的关系，并与日常生活结合得更加紧密。”

芝加哥艺术学院的策展人 Rachel Sabino 表示，这座城市拥有异常丰富的公共艺术收藏，尤其是在 Great Park 和博物馆园区。“这里的雕塑密度惊人……这是让芝加哥和 Loop 区成为游客心目中如此绝佳之地的原因之一，”Sabino 说道。

以下是我们的 10, 个作品清单，不分先后顺序。欢迎您创建自己的清单。

咨询专栏作家安·兰德斯（Ann Landers，左）与她的双胞胎姐妹阿比盖尔·范·布伦（Abigail Van Buren，以“亲爱的阿比”名义撰写咨询专栏）现身于1987.。在芝加哥，JOHN BARTLEY / CHICAGO TRIBUNE

[...OMITTED...]

在“亲爱的艾比”退休后，人们都去哪里寻求建议了？

里克·科根（Rick Kogan）

1987年，化名为“安·兰德斯”的女性离开了承载其流行建议专栏三十多年的《圣蒂莫斯报》（San-Timos），来到《论坛报》工作。该报的明星专栏作家迈克·博伊尔（Mike Boyle）在三年前也做了类似的变动，他很高兴她的到来。正如他所说：“我很高兴她在这儿。现在，所有那些给我写信倾诉问题的‘怪人们’都可以给她写信了。”

我记得这件事，是因为几周前，化名为“亲爱的艾比”的建议专栏作家宣布退休，她在信中部分写道：“我一直将你们，我的读者，视为我的朋友。你们教会我的生活课题比我教会你们的要多得多……当我于1987年开始撰写（该专栏）时，我对自己承诺，当退休之时到来，我将停下脚步，过没有截稿日期的生活……我爱你们所有人！”落款是“珍妮·菲利普斯，即亲爱的艾比”。

化名为“安·兰德斯”的女性埃皮·莱德勒（Eppie Lederer）于2002年因多发性骨髓瘤去世，享年65岁。最初的“亲爱的艾比”波琳·菲利普斯（Pauline Phillips）在与阿尔茨海默症抗争十多年后，于2003年去世，享年94岁，而现在她的女儿也决定收笔。

那么，所有那些“怪人们”现在该怎么办呢？随着报纸数量剧减，而寻求建议的场所增加，这个问题一直困扰着编辑们。现在有了在线网站、广播电话访谈节目、电视聊天主持人、播客、在自助出版机器压力下不堪重负的书架、遭遇小组、自我赋能研讨会以及各种形式的（成瘾行为）匿名组织。

曾经情况更简单。只要有问题存在，就有人愿意提供建议。从酒馆老板、牧师、邻居或父母那里总能得到免费的建议。报纸为了提高发行量而加入这场竞争，投资于漫画以及关注困扰者的专栏等内容。花一张报纸的价格买建议。

这些专栏通常以处理爱情和浪漫问题为形式。虽然它们可能无法解决少数人的问题，但对大多数人来说，它们提供了启示，或者让人们感觉好一些，比如“至少有人比我更惨”。

一个多世纪以来，读者一直在给报纸写信。有些人写信是为了投诉，美国专栏作家波琳·菲利普斯（通常以笔名阿比盖尔·范·布伦为人所知）于1962年7月28日。EVENING STANDARD / GETTY；有些人是为了赞扬。但大多数人写信是寻求关于生活弱点和麻烦的建议，或者分享他们对生活悲欢的观察。

安·兰德斯每天收到大约2,000封信。她和她的员工会尽力亲自回复每一封，尽管每天只有三四封能在报纸上刊登，从而在报纸和读者之间建立了最亲密的关系。

你仍然可以在报纸中找到建议专栏（《论坛报》设有由编剧B. 埃里克·托马斯撰写的“询问埃里克”），但请考虑到，在20世纪60年代“安·兰德斯”和“亲爱的艾比”人气最高峰时，她们是美国新闻史上阅读量最广泛的专栏作家。

在某些方面她们有所不同——例如，有些人认为“安·兰德斯”比“亲爱的艾比”更严肃，而后者被认为更擅长金句——但在最本质的一点上，她们完全一样。她们是双胞胎姐妹，弗里德曼家的女孩，1918年7月4日出生于爱荷华州的苏城，父亲是。波琳（安·兰德斯）出生，17分钟后，波琳·埃丝特（亲爱的艾比）出生。

小时候，她们的绰号分别是“Eppie”（埃丝特）和“Pepsi”（波琳），两人不分伯仲。在她们就读的中央高中的 1936 年年鉴《Mammals White》中，这对双胞胎当年是高年级学生，她们在彼此的照片下方这样写道：“永远与 Eppie 在一起”以及“永远与 Pepsi 在一起”。1939 年，在她们 21 岁生日的两天前，两人在同一场极其奢华的仪式上结婚，以至于当地报纸对此进行了报道。她们曾一度分道扬镳，随后在 1955 年， 开始在《San-Timos》报纸上撰写“Ann Landers”专栏，接替了已故的露丝·考利（Ruth Cowley）。她招募了自己的名字，因此在旧金山之外提供帮助。这种安排在几个月后结束，当时 Pepsi 说服了《旧金山纪事报》让她以 Abigail Van Buren（又名“Dear Abby”）的署名撰写一个建议专栏。这引发了一些家庭矛盾，并在 1958 年的一篇名为“Twin Loveless Advisors Teen Anander by Success”的《生活》（Life）杂志文章中爆发。多年来，这段关系起起伏伏，经历了漫长的 eifences。但两人之间的竞争有利于发行量。每人的专栏都被 1,000 多家报纸转载（其中一些报纸，如《芝加哥论坛报》曾一度同时转载两人的专栏），最终每人的全球日读者数（目标）达到 9000 万。很高兴知道她们克服了困难并保持密切联系——主要通过每天互相发送便条、评论以及大量的家庭新闻和八卦——直到 去世。当我还在思考 、Pepsi 以及整个建议专栏的事情时，死亡再次敲门，7 月中旬传来了 唯一的孩子、聪明、活泼且迷人的马戈·霍华德（Margo Howard）去世的消息。马戈结过婚，育有三个成年子女，于 7 月中旬去世，享年 86。她曾是一名 fifty-priest，在这里长大，并曾在我们城市的报纸担任一段时间的撰稿人。她一度也涉足建议专栏，撰写过 "Dear Prudence" 专栏。在 生命的最后五年里，我担任她的编辑，在那段时间里我相当了解马戈。在那期间， 经常谈到建议的平衡，我现在仍能听到她说：“有些信件太悲伤了。它无法 insulate，更多的是 tell。我本可以寻求正义。”我还能读到她曾经写过的一段话：“事实是，我的专栏对我来说一直是一个悲伤的、极度 scroce 的来源，至少是由于我们社会的中心悲剧。那种孤独、不安全感，以及折磨、摧残并 pardiness 我们许多人的恐惧。” okcgov@chicagotribune.com --- 芝加哥论坛报 / E 版 / 2026 年 8 月 9 日，星期日 3

“Alberto Aguilar”展览（cut）真的想告诉你们这一件事，目前正在芝加哥文化中心展出，包括他的“Hand-Held Series 11 / 5, 2024-12, 28, 2024.” 2025. PATRICK LIPYSZKAPNOTOS 评论

阿尔贝托·阿吉拉尔（Alberto Aguilar）有很多话要说，而他正在文化中心表达这些想法

洛里·瓦克斯曼（Lori Waxman）：“我真的只想告诉你这一件事”是阿尔贝托·阿吉拉尔在文化中心举办的个展中一个具有误导性的标题。作为过去二十年芝加哥艺术界最可靠且充满热情的艺术家之一，阿吉拉尔实际上关于游戏、规则、翻译、协作和符号有很多话要说。它是 fuzco hitter，而且更在于寻找参与其中的方式。

此次展览展出了阿吉拉尔职业生涯中两个完全不同时期的艺术作品。1997 年至 2002 年间创作的作品是传统的绘画。而 2020 年至 2026, 年间创作的作品——就像阿吉拉尔在放弃成为画家之后所做的一切一样——绝非如此。他的旧画布看起来大多像是经过资助且阴险的，这其实并不重要；它们出现在这里并非为了被欣赏，而是作为协作艺术创作这一漫长过程中的第一个谷底，而这正是阿吉拉尔现在的运作方式。

这场游戏始于阿吉拉尔邀请 11 位他认识的艺术家，从他的旧作品中选择一件并自由地重新创作。其中的亮点包括：玛丽亚·布伦德纳（Maria Burundarena）对一组关于音乐的历史作品进行的 disco photostatic 扭曲处理；伊索西安·卡茨（Isosian Katz）将一个略显匆忙的现成品结构和立体主义图像转化为充满活力的爆发；以及塞西莉亚·邦纳（Cecilia Bonner）对我最喜欢的阿吉拉尔作品——一个 Magiditappa 厨房场景的动画化处理，在邦纳那带有 jingish 色彩的笔下，该场景变得像草图一样且显得怪诞。

来自乔纳斯·米克洛斯基-穆勒-阿海姆（Jonas Mikloski-Müller-Ahlheim）的贡献不仅出色地玩转了诠释游戏，还解析了一个明显沉重的空间。文化中心 4 层的展厅显得高傲且坚定，而穆勒-阿海姆基于阿吉拉尔《保护》（Conservation）的创作将其卡通化，并将其扩大为两幅巨大的画作，高高地挂在画廊的另一侧。这呼应了一对永久性的破碎锁形浮雕，而且更妙的是，它将画廊变成了一个巨大的笑脸，主入口则像一张嘴，参观者像 charter 一样从中涌入。

阿吉拉尔本人挑战展厅的方式需要花一段时间才能被注意到。548 英寸的灰色血顶，购自

。在埃奇沃特（Edgewater）的 Centro-Romero 驻留期间，阿吉拉尔向一群青少年教授了关于 Aico 的作品，这是一个在 20 世纪 70 年代和 80 年代活跃的洛杉矶奇卡诺（Chicano）集体，他们最标志性的作品包括用胶带将自己粘在岩石财产拍卖会上，追踪画廊的整个周长，沿着建筑物，绕过门口，爬过临时墙壁，最后结束在一个渴望被包裹的信封球中。

由椅子、灯具和从文化中心仓库中拉出的文件柜俏皮地组装而成的雕塑，被地板胶带撕开，这些胶带巧妙地延伸了艺术品本身，在打破标准浸入式实践的同时又坚持于此。对角线在到处地主导着，包括一排壁画尺寸的、在古巴旅行期间收集的解构手绘派对帽。

整体基调与阿吉拉尔通常接纳 gordinos 和日常生活琐事的实践相协调：利用现有资源，与你拥有的人和物合作，聪明且勤奋，但不要过于严肃。阿吉拉尔的多次协作证明了这些原则。在 COVID-19 隔离期间进行的一个项目中，他指示他的四个孩子凭记忆一次性画出父亲，不允许修改，而他也这样做，但增加了一个限制：他绘制每个孩子的时长必须等于该孩子的年龄（分钟）。对于创作者来说，限制往往能增加趣味。展览中的其他肖像

交替进行。有些作品显而易见，比如在 Aguilar 任教的学院里，学生们在学期末留下的满墙自画像；这些作品的趣味性源于积累与重新排列。关于《即时青年壁画（仿 Acc）》的一切都显而易见，在 Edgewater 的 Centro-Romero，Aguilar 向一群青少年展示了 Aico 的历史作品，他们决定模仿这个洛杉矶奇卡诺（Chicano）集体最标志性的作品——于是他们用胶带将自己固定在了一面砖墙上。委托创作在这里也适用。在《熟悉的形式》中， 承包了 Midway 机场附近的一家家族企业 Southwest Signs，以解释他的设计，这些设计由撇号、感叹号、零以及其他常见于该店擅长的手工杂货店海报的元素组成。同样由 Southwest Signs 创作的，还有一件基于艺术学院馆藏中马克·罗斯科（Mark Rothko）色域绘画的圣像作品。其结果放在商店橱窗里一点也不违和，只要再加上苹果的售价即可。对罗斯科作品的重制具有启发意义。与前任不同， 不追求超越。他坚定地步入日常生活，并决心以某种方式改善它。实现这一目标的方法之一是研究如何每天创作艺术，而一个有效的方法就是设定规则，常见的则是规模化销售和简洁。来自 2024 年底六周期间的《手持作品》，由 16 张艺术家的左手照片组成，手中不断变换着植物叶子、剪刀、羽毛球拍、橙色球、硬币、圆珠笔等。来自 2020 年一个月期间的《匆匆之画》，包含在白色和黄色小型法律便笺纸上用罐子、铅笔、胶带和剪刀创作的极简绘画。这些作品有时包含其自身的指令。在 确实如此操作的一张纸上，写着“更好 / 剪切 / 粘贴”。多年来， 一直在投入这类基础、易得且潜在无限的系列创作。就像他的大多数作品一样，这些作品展现出的技巧并不多，但事实证明，技巧在艺术史的不同时代有时会以无法识别的形式出现。 对这些新形式的掌控，有助于将艺术转化为生活，将生活转化为艺术，而这一切因此变得更好。如果 真的想告诉我们一件事，我认为就是这个。

玛丽亚·布伦达雷纳（Maria Burundarena）和里卡多·维拉斯·弗雷雷（Ricardo Vilas Freire）是两名由 重制旧画的艺术家。布伦达雷纳创作了那幅由杆支撑的壁画，弗雷雷则创作了那幅带有流苏的动物头绘画。

展览包括由旧机构家具制成的雕塑，三件与 Southwest Signs 合作完成的马克·罗斯科重制品，以及十几幅由其他艺术家重新诠释的 旧作。

与 Southwest Signs 合作多年，后者是一家生产手绘杂货店促销海报的当地公司。文字游戏是他们最喜欢的主题。

拒绝从书籍中拼凑作者的生活：赖利新书中情感克制且深陷杂志纷争的叙述者

作者：Theology La Force 《纽约时报》

像她书中的许多角色一样，英国作家格温多林·赖利（Gwendolyn Riley）是一个孤立的人。她曾被评为典型的单身母亲，并在英格兰的某个领域放弃了硕士学位。她痴迷于 1964. 年的音乐。她创作的《初恋》（First Love）和《我的幻影》（My Phantoms）与那些关于家庭环境中的痛苦与悲哀的作品非常相似。这些故事的讲述方式精准，涉及男性，且没有对话的空间。正因如此，人们很容易试图从赖利的写作中拼凑出她生活的细节。

“首先，”赖利说，“如果我只是说，我的意思是。”

87 岁的赖利在她的故乡英格兰开始职业生涯时像个神童，22 岁出版了第一本书，随后又写了七本。其中几本在十多年前就在美国出版过。然而，直到 2023 - 当纽约的一家新书出版社出版了关于英国母女关系的《我的幻影》，以及一部关于初恋的翻拍作品《初恋》时，这在书界才成为一个重大议题。它吸引了热情的美国观众，其中大部分是时尚且具有文学头脑的女性，她们身边没有一个敏锐但富有同情心的朋友可以倾诉自己的爱情。

然而，这是一个枯燥的开始。但作品中包含的戏剧冲突并非完全没有传达之意。“这本书压抑得要命，但让人无法移开视线。”

单身生活和爱情生活！[两者] 应该在 2024. 年的《细胞》（The Cell）中的《我的幻影》里发挥作用。在一次活动中，作者认为他这样解释了赖利的吸引力：“她的愿景非常有重组感，她对世界的看法非常黑暗，非常非美国化，不讨喜，没有希望，也不温暖——但她既不是时髦的甜美，也不是厌世的，而且她的书看起来不像当代喜剧。”

“赖利那观察敏锐、情感克制的叙述者的语言，设定成了当下的语言。”他补充道，“而这一切都令人兴奋。她用自己的方式讲述真相，许多作家不讲述真相，即便讲述，也无法用自己的方式讲述。”

在她的最新小说《棕榈屋》（The Palm House）中，赖利想要走出小说的家庭领域——该书最近被宣布为今年布克奖的提名者——转而利用一家高层杂志社的激烈权力斗争，其新任主编希望将其打造为“某种伦敦版的《纽约客》”。故事从一名叫简（Jane）的作家的视角展开，她的经典作品发现了一位年长的男性埃德蒙（Edmund），这位副主编因反对新政权而辞职。她温柔的邂逅与劳拉（Laura）年轻时的短信交织在一起，涉及她与母亲之间危险的关系。

“赖利在一定程度上受到了启发，”她说。在佩内洛普·菲茨杰拉德（Penelope Fitzgerald） 1979 年获得布克奖的小说《奥夫顿》（Offdown）中，“一个设定在房屋群中的极简主义戏剧”，“我想象一群人在某个地方工作，”她在今年春天伦敦的一次采访中说，“做着一些有点被围攻的事情。或者是纳粹包围了他们。或者是一个糟糕的编辑。”

赖利曾与英国诗人艾伦·詹金斯（Alan Jenkins）结婚，后者在 2020. 年之前一直担任《泰晤士报》泽西增刊的副主编。他们在 2023. 年离婚。像劳拉一样，她住在雷文斯考特公园（Ravenscourt Park）。她起床，喝咖啡和葡萄酒。“我想不出除了这样之外还能怎么做，”她说。“是的，我就是这么做的。”

从赖利那里挖掘个人细节需要一种忏悔。当被问及是否曾参加过冬校进修时，她说：“我没在跟你说话。”被问及“自闭式爱情”一词以及这是否适用于她写作的家庭环境时，她说：“那个词现在有点过时了，不是吗？”

“为赖利写作对我来说既足够，又占据了一小部分时间。”她坦言，这是动物本能，“我前几天发现他甚至无法忍受流水的声音。记住，这就是我的样子。我只管做我的事，然后重复一遍。”她说，她会不断修改，直到“某些部分听起来对了，而且在第二天早晨听起来依然是对的。”她一直被书籍吸引。“那是当时唯一能做的事，”她说。在《对立立场》（Opposed Positions）这部关于漂泊在外的女性作家的 2022 年著作中，叙述者的母亲回忆—— 1 1 1 --- 芝加哥论坛报 / E版 / 2026年8月9日，星期日 5 多梅尼科·斯塔诺内（Domenico Starnone）出席 2008 年在意大利都灵举行的万宝龙文化艺术赞助奖颁奖典礼。WITTORO ZUHNO GILOTTO / SATTY

斯塔诺内的《信任》在情感上极具扩张力且不可否认地紧张

作者：约翰·沃纳 (John Warner) 为《芝加哥论坛报》撰写

我有一份从未读过但想要阅读的作家名单。这份名单很长，且每年都在增加，尽管偶尔我能勾掉一个名字，而且在这种意义上我并不感到失望。最近，我勾掉了一个已经在名单上存在了近十年的名字。如果你还没有接触过这位作家的作品，亲爱的读者，你不应该等待这么久才去结识他。

多梅尼科·斯塔诺内 (Domenico Starnone)。斯塔诺内很受欢迎，长期以来备受尊敬，而且我们在他的故乡意大利见证了这一点。这位作者写了 20 多部小说，并且曾有传闻称他是《生物政治小说》作者埃莱娜·费兰特 (Elena Ferrante) 笔名背后的真实人物，但该传闻已被否认。

我阅读了 2023 年在美国出版、由同样是成就斐然的小说家和短篇小说作家罗德里戈·拉拉希 (Rodrigo Lallahi) 翻译的《信任》(Trust)。《信任》篇幅较短，在我阅读的版本中不足 140 页，但它成功地涵盖了主角皮埃特罗 (Pietro) 生命中的许多年。皮埃特罗是一名教师兼作家，从所有外部证据来看，他是个好人，但表面上，他的继承者们却更为污秽。

作者的故事基于三个“故事”，每个故事由不同的角色讲述，首先是弗兰科 (Franco)。故事以讲述皮埃特罗与特蕾莎 (Teresa) 之间动荡的关系开篇，特蕾莎曾是他的学生，他从一开始就对他心存渴望，而特蕾莎在他不再是她的老师后发起了与皮埃特罗的关系。这段关系充满激情但注定失败。在一次极其糟糕的争吵后的几篇近期日记中，特蕾莎提出了一个非正式的协议。他们将各自告诉对方一件自己做过的糟糕事情，一件糟糕到如果被揭露将对对方造成毁灭性影响的事情。特蕾莎先开始，皮埃特罗对他听到的内容感到震惊，尽管读者在得知他们任何一个故事之前并未被告知。皮埃特罗卸下了自己的负担，“起初是碎片化的，然后是更详细的，我不想停止说话；是她让我停止的。”几天后，他们经双方同意分手。

沃顿写道，他所做的事以及告诉特蕾莎的内容笼罩在小说的其余部分，尽管这并不是一个咒语，或者说读者从未被告知这个秘密。《信任》不是那种小说。它实际上是一个男人兴趣的地图，随着他结婚、生子，在教育领域获得出人意料的良好信誉，并培养了同一代学生，即便他仍在思考这个他交给别人的秘密。

他的妻子纳迪亚 (Nadia) 与特蕾莎截然相反：在皮埃特罗表达意图时，她已经与他人订婚。她最终走进了他的生活，而我们仅能看到皮埃特罗最大的优势——一种吸引他人的魅力。这包括他的编辑和一名他或许给了两次机会的公关人员，甚至包括一名曾在公开论坛上攻击皮埃特罗观点但后来成为他最亲密朋友的人。

第二个篇幅短得多的故事由皮埃特罗的一个女儿讲述，她已成为一名记者，并决定他应当获得一项针对重要教育者和合作伙伴的国家荣誉。特蕾莎是皮埃特罗最成功的学生，在美国学术界享有盛名，被邀请在仪式上提供现场证词。

第三个篇幅更短的故事属于特蕾莎，增加了新的复杂情况。这个短篇故事在情感上同时具有扩张力且不可否认地紧张。这部小说的力量在于让我们思考，我们每个人内心是否都潜藏着某种怪物。

约翰·沃纳 (John Warner) 是多本书籍的作者，包括《不仅仅是文字：在 AI 时代如何思考写作》。您可以在 biblicaville.com 找到他。

6 游客在格兰特公园的芝加哥艺术学院南花园观看由雕塑家洛拉多·塔夫特（Lorado Taft）创作的青铜作品“五大湖之泉”。 BRIAN CASSELLA / 芝加哥论坛报

艺术（接 E 页）

华盛顿特区的纪念碑。它是一根顶端有鹰的大理石多利亚柱，底座周围的机器人描绘了原住民、探险家、农民和劳工，由先驱女性雕塑家埃夫林·比翠丝·隆曼（Evelyn Beatrice Longman）设计。我喜欢它不仅是因为它本身，还因为它的位置——坐落在充满树木和人流的公园顶端，有音乐家和 skans bear ihre。现在灯光更接近 19 世纪早期的原始灯具的“色温”，babies 说——“这确实增强了雕塑的效果。”（位于洛根广场 3200 W. Logan Blvd.）

洛拉多·塔夫特的“时间之泉” (LORADO TAFI'S 'FOUNTAIN OF TIME')

这座巨大的钢筋混凝土雕塑长 124 英尺多，于 1929 年在华盛顿公园 Mulkey Plaisance 的西缘完工。时间之父面对着 100 个人物，包括儿童、士兵和恋人。它以一种最好的方式令人震撼——一股穿梭于历史中的人群浪潮。（位于 Mulkey Plaisance 的 6000 E. Cottage Grove Ave.）

玛格达莱娜·阿巴卡诺维奇的“集市” (MAGDALENA ASAKANOWICZ'S 'AGORA')

这座由玛格达莱娜·阿巴卡诺维奇（Magdalena Abakanowicz）创作的装置作品安装于 2006 年，由 106 个由运行铁制成的无头 arndesa 人物组成，根据我的观察方式，它的感觉截然不同。当我与同伴在一起时，它显得热闹非凡，很有用，是对城市喧嚣的庆祝。当我独自一人时，它让我觉得自己像个被救的小孩，置身于人群之中。（位于南格兰特公园 1135 S. Michigan Ave.）

赫布鲁·布兰特利的“幻想飞行小玛丽” (HEBRU BRANTLEY'S 'FANTASYC FLYING LIL MARIE')

这个充满欢乐的赫布鲁·布兰特利（Hebru Brantley）人物也被称为“飞行女孩”，描绘了一个戴着护目镜、穿着高帮运动鞋从云端冲出的小女孩。她于 2024 年安装在黑马群附近，面对着一个举办特别活动的场所。街对面 Spill the Beans 咖啡店的共同所有者德斯蒂尼·威尔克森（Destiny Wilkerson）说，她喜欢在窗外看着“小玛丽”。“这让未来看起来很光明——真的很酷。”（位于奥斯汀 3215 W. Chicago Ave.）

路易斯·克雷斯科创作的尤利西斯·S·格兰特纪念碑

“Here-on-honolock”雕塑可能已经过时，但这一座很特别。在2001年完工时，这座18英尺高的塑像曾是美国最大的青铜铸像，描绘的是那位助力赢得内战的将军。2021年，一项关于该塑像可能被移除的审查公告引发了来自Keterman的大量批评。我喜欢这座塑像矗立在公园之上，仿佛在守护着这里。（位于林肯公园 Lake Shore Drive 旁的 2045 N. Lincoln Park W.）

珍妮·肯德勒在布鲁明代尔步道上的《观鸟》

这座60英尺长的钢铝雕塑展示了100种不同鸟类的眼睛，这些鸟类要么受到气候变化的威胁，要么处于濒危状态，该作品出自艺术家珍妮·肯德勒之手。这座雕塑安装于2016年，色彩绚丽，但也能让你感到不安。你始终被观察着，且被审视着。（位于 1700 N. Spalding Ave. 的 60th 步道入口以西）

亨博尔特公园的世界博览会野牛

这对雄性和雌性野牛最初是由爱德华·凯梅里斯为1893年世界博览会设计的石膏像，他也创作了艺术学院的 feces。这些 feces 后来被重新铸造成青铜，并最终在亨博尔特公园找到了归宿。我喜欢它们，因为它们在公园的正式花园中显得如此格格不入，像是芝加哥城市化之前的过去之魂，出现在 tally 花坛附近。（位于 3000 W. Division 8 附近以及亨博尔特公园正式花园的东入口）

CTA 加菲尔德绿线车站

CTA 拥有 80 个艺术装置，很难只挑选一个来重点介绍。在 Belmont 车站有 David Lee Cuicilo 的 resource；在 18th 街有墨西哥历史 may als；在 19th 街有 Theater Gates 的 america，以及由废弃消防栓组成的 america's tapestry。在 Baker 的建议下，我选择了尼克·科拉在 2018 年于加菲尔德绿线车站创作的《Free Normal》，这是一件由花卉瓷砖马赛克和柱子组成的混合作品，是与设计师鲍勃·福斯特合作完成的。它能让你脱离周围的环境，进入一个梦幻的丛林。（位于 320 E. Garfield Blvd.）

芝加哥艺术学院花园

艺术学院的南花园有绝妙的“五大湖喷泉”，而北花园则包括亚历山大·考尔德的红色“飞龙”和西蒙·莱特（Simone Leight）的《Bustle》。后者安装于 2024 年，是一位 9 英尺高的、陷入深思的青铜女性。这些花园是这座城市里阅读、享用午餐以及思考平凡生活之外之事的最佳场所之一。（位于 1215 S. Michigan Ave.）

《海洋之心》热潮不仅是对电影的热爱

细致的叙事和朗朗上口的歌曲驱动孩子们重复观看 《纽约时报》

来自德克萨斯州沃思堡的 2 岁女孩罗莉·亨利（Rory Henry）正陷入一种痴迷之中。在过去的一年半里，她的脸庞在亨利的波利尼西亚动画公主电影《海洋之心》（Moana）中出现了大约 40 次。她有一个像 Pan 的歌手，米妮的助手。一个能播放《海洋之心 2》歌曲的卡拉 OK 麦克风，以及《海洋之心》主题的连衣裙、太阳镜和发夹。

罗莉的母亲，38 岁的斯泰西·亨利（Stacey Henry）和她的父亲在家里使用“M 字”（指 Moana）时必须非常小心，亨利说道。“她会立刻皱起非常严肃的眉头，并看到‘Broad’我心，”亨利笑着说。

罗莉绝非个例。自 2016 年在电影院上映以来，《海洋之心》——这是 2000 年代以来首次出现一位前往新区域探索的酋长——已成为迪士尼历史上观看次数最多的电影。它被流媒体播放了超过 1,000 小时，其中播放《How Far I Was》这首超级金曲的次数超过 700 分钟。

《海洋之心》和 9, 2016 扩展版，以及《海洋之心 2》都位列迪士尼票房最高的 10 部动画电影之列。在社交媒体上成百上千的父母所感叹的现象中，究竟是什么导致了这种“海洋之心热潮”？这是一个可能包含所有答案的谜团。这在很大程度上归功于真人版《海洋之心》的秘密发行，该片请回了作为词曲作者和表演者的 Jan Mania 的 Miranda，以及 Pewyear。那些让她之前配音的参考资料，改变了想法。

在过去 40 年里发布的几乎每一部迪士尼动画音乐电影中的歌曲一直是一种危险

。左侧的 Moana 和 Max 是动画电影《海洋之心》中的角色，该片已成为迪士尼观看次数最多的电影。

迪士尼 给了父母们宁静。这里有《You're Welcome》，那是 Johnson 在《海洋之心》和《I'm It Go》中演唱的爵士风格 Pity-nature 表演。她有着来自《冰雪奇缘》的自我认同问题，以及来自《the same》的《We Don't Talk About Me too》，那是另一首融合了拉丁流行乐的 Miranda 欢快曲目。

在每一种情况下，迪士尼都采用了古老的公式。选取一个具有广泛吸引力的叙事，将其包裹在书籍中，并经常加入像新闻和敲击这样的词汇。加利福尼亚州马里布佩珀代因大学的市场营销教授 Grand Annual Russell 认为，这就是为什么人们喜欢一遍又一遍地消费相同的故事。

她说，对于寻求来自六件心爱之物的舒适感的冲动，有一个名称：选择悖论。这个概念由心理学家巴里·施瓦茨（Barry Schwartz）在其 2016 年同名书籍中创建，在他看来这很愉快，有时也被称为“中国菜单效应”。当选项过多时，我们经常会回归到熟悉的选项。她如此之大，再次成为了最好的。

“这是你确信自己会喜欢的一件事，”罗塞尔说。“这种吸引力在儿童身上尤为强烈，”伦敦东大学早期年份与青年科学研究员、儿童心理学家汤姆·怀特（Tom White）表示。她说，熟悉叙事的那些部分可以帮助儿童的房屋处理信息，建立预测并掌握语言的节奏。

他说，最大化学习的秘密点在于，恰好处于完全知道将要发生什么与无法预测接下来会发生什么之间。“心理学家有时称之为 Goldshock 场景，”他说。但由于幼儿缺乏可借鉴的经验，他们要么通过一个可预测的叙事，要么通过一个更复杂的故事来进入这个区域。就像通过重复观看而变得熟悉的《海洋之心》一样。

“在我们看来极其重复的事情，从一个 5 岁男孩的角度来看，恰恰是恰到好处的挑战水平，”他说。

每个夜晚的观看都能加强并完善孩子们的预测。他说，起初，他们可能只是了解故事的大致轮廓。随后，他们会捕捉到情感表达、情节、动机、词汇以及事件之间微妙的关系。“在某种意义上，他们是在一遍又一遍地进行同一个实验，但每次都会获得额外的信息，”他说。这意味着对于像《海洋奇缘》（Moana）这样具有正式多维故事的细腻叙事，父母们可能得接受孩子反复提及《You're Welcome》和《How Far I'll Go》的歌词。“评论越复杂，大脑的游走范围越广，你就越需要重复观看某样东西，直到它变得过于可预测，你不再能从观看中学习，”他说。这种认知反馈循环可以解释为什么孩子们不仅重复观看电影，他们还要求重复听同一本书。为什么他们大多坚持读同一本书，穿同样的衣服，有时甚至乐于在任何国家将地板上的同一个过程设计 20 次。“从成年人的角度来看，没有发生任何新鲜事，”他说。“但从孩子的角度来看，他们每秒钟都在进行和撕碎数以千计的微小预测。”但为什么偏偏是《海洋奇缘》，而不是比如《勇敢传说》（Brave）或《魔发奇缘》（Tangled）？罗素（Russell）说，这是一个三重威胁。这部电影塑造了一个“并非典型朋友，不像蓝眼睛的辛德瑞拉”的主角，一个关于赋能的主题，以及“纯粹带来快乐的朗朗上口的歌曲和命运”。音乐可能是最显著的因素。原声带中包含了像《You're Welcome》、《We Know the Way》和获得格莱美奖的《How Far I'll Go》这样的一系列歌曲。罗素说，歌曲能极大地帮助使叙事变得不可抗拒。“你不一定需要重复观看一部细腻的电影来解决电影体验，”她说。“你可以在广播里听到其中的一首歌，依然能获得与该作品相关的所有积极情绪。”音乐是许多父母自己也沉迷于观看和歌唱的原因之一。居住在菲律宾马尼拉的家庭博主克里斯托·马克斯·马里乌斯·利佐拉（Kristo, Max Marius, Lizzola）承认，在女儿维西·马里乌斯·利佐拉（Visi Marius Lizzola）之后，她偶尔会和丈夫一起重复观看这部电影。这是一种巨大的感受。她说，她的丈夫将这些歌曲加入了他的最爱播放列表，甚至在独自开车时也会跟着唱。马里乌斯·利佐拉还欣赏这部电影给女儿带来的积极信息。“我喜欢教她坚强、勇敢！我的意思是，而不是追求完美，”她说。“这意味着拥有一颗善良的心，关心他人，追求你的目标，即使这意味着你表现得如此出色。作为一名母亲，我认为这对我也一样是一课。”

Smith 为点燃音乐之爱的“蜡烛”添薪

歌手在创作这张“虔诚”专辑时回归灵性主题 《纽约时报》

“让我敞开，好让我能继续忏悔，”Willow 在单曲《She's My Bump》的部分歌词中唱道。她是其每周发布作品《The Thread》的开篇曲。这可能是一个模棱两可的陈述。Willow 的音乐正变得越来越独特、复杂、明显且纯粹，并逐渐远离任何近乎定义的流派。随着《The Thread》的推出——这是她在 11 年里的第八次个人发布，也是继 2 月的《Fetal Rock Black》之后 2020 年的第二张专辑—— 对自己的进步几乎感到满意。

“就像我现在终于达到了一个我真正喜欢并热爱自己所创作的音乐的程度，”25 岁的 Smith 在最近的一次采访中说道。“以前，我觉得自己像是在黑暗中摸索，”她说。“现在依然如此。但现在我有一把蜡烛，而这把蜡烛就是我花在乐器和嗓音上的技术时间。我只是在不断地为这把小蜡烛添薪。但我感觉我已经坚持得更久了一些。”

竭尽全力地证明自己。作为好莱坞权力夫妇——说唱歌手兼演员 Will Smith 和演员 Jack Philpot 的女儿，以及同类身份的首次亮相，她拥有许多优势。同时，不可避免地，她也处于公众的关注之下。

“我渴望勤奋，是因为如果我处于这个位置，我想向世界提供一些东西，”她说。“显然，我对世界有如此多的视角。我出生在其中，这是我无法忽视的事情。但处于那种环境下的心理影响也是我无法忽视的事情。随着时间的推移，我学会了，比如，两件事可以同时成立。‘我出生在这个家庭所拥有的特权。以及另一件事，出生在这个家庭在心理和情感上的影响——是营养性的且分析性的。’”

始终拥有人脉。她从小就获得电影角色——早在 2007 年，她就与父亲共同出演了《我是传奇》。从 2018 年到 2020 年，她加入了母亲和祖母的行列，主持《红桌谈话》（Red Table Talk），这是一个在 Facebook 上探讨格言和社会问题的每周在线系列节目。

当年幼的 告诉父母她想从事音乐时，他们认真对待了她的想法。她接受了声乐课、钢琴课和芭蕾训练，在那里她每天接触音乐。2000 年代初，在随母亲的硬摇滚乐队 Wicked Wickers 巡演期间，她喜欢上了重金属的速度和厚重感。她还受到父亲嘻哈风格的影响，并接触了爵士乐、男性摇滚等。所有这些都融入了她自己的音乐中。

签约 Nation 时年仅 9 岁，但 25 并不喜欢她。而 Moana 的《Let beard's Hot 100》则凭借她的首支单曲《What My Hair》进入榜单，我直接询问，这首歌是用为他写的 R&B 歌曲改编的。她曾为 Austin Belten 担任开场表演。在行程过半时，她精疲力竭。她要求退出，但她的父亲坚持要求她履行合同。她感觉不到，在一次青春期的反抗行为中，21 岁的《What Your Hair》让她低下了头。

决心成为一名词曲作者，而不仅仅是一名歌手。14 岁时，她开始学习吉他，这是一种她曾经轻视但此后一直钻研的乐器，经常每天练习数小时。“在过去的几年里，我意识到练习真的是唯一需要做的事情，”她说。“我与乐器之间的技术关系将为我开启比我想象中更多的门。”

在 的艺名下，她在 SoundCloud 上变得活跃，将电子音效、男性摇滚和 R&B 融合在一起。“创造力就是我的声音，”她在全人声歌曲《Words》中唱道，“它对我说话的多样性就在我的家中。”

她的成年嗓音正在显现，这是一种柔软、音域宽广且音准精确的乐器，能够演绎沙哑的亲昵感、透明的地区追踪和声、booty rock 的尖锐感以及虔诚且出色的咏唱。在她 2018 年的出道专辑《Arrhythmias!》中（与早期的 Arrhythmias 类似，学习物种），14 岁的 Willow 坚持认为：“我只是个小女孩，我看起来很强大。”这张专辑延续了她在 SoundCloud 轨道上的简约风格，但也包括了《Walt a Minnie》，这是一首旋转的 R&B 曲调，将其排除在外。“我在第六维度讲述我的自信。”这首歌已经获得了近 1,500 次流媒体播放量。Willow 的专辑名称在更具辨识度的风格中保持一致：2017, 年《The Set》中的内省独立摇滚，2018, 年《Willow》中的柔和单向风格，包括 2020, 年《The Anxiety》中的旋律流行朋克，以及与 Plan Cobb 合作的《Landy I Feel Everybody》，(2022, 年) 和《Coping Mechanism》。“每一首歌，我都在向神圣的奥秘歌唱并赞美，”在加利福尼亚州卡拉巴萨（Calabasas）被拍到的 Willow Smith 在谈到《The Thread》时说道。MAURENN-BADULT / 纽约时报 (2022)。但 Willow 在她的第二张专辑《Empathogen》及其扩展版本《Ceremonial Contralict (Empathogen) Booklet》中完全找到了自我。Browngs 处理的是“追逐水壶”，在 Willow 的“Forward Last She”阶段——一个年轻的场景，头脑风暴，侵入性想法，以及在一次工作和极端诚实之后确定的结果。“我没有任何感觉——不能那样‘把它们压低’在我身上，”她在每一个小船、空间绘画之所发现。这看起来像专辑的高潮歌曲，《Big Feeling!》。在《The Thread》中，Willow 超越了起点；那是她过去经常歌唱的一种困惑。相反，她专注于一个贯穿她之前专辑灵性的主题。“我带着成为‘活面包’的官方钱包进入这张专辑，”她说。“每一首歌，我都在向神圣的奥秘歌唱并赞美。我认为音乐不仅仅是虔诚的，但我扩展了我们的 upc-off，仅带着这个想法。”这种灵性是显著的，是工具性的。例如，《She's My Religion》是“我给宇宙母亲的情歌，”Willow 说道。“在现代，我觉得现在时尚在社会前沿占据了类似的地位。但在地球上的几乎每一种文化中，追溯到证明时代，都有这样一个神圣的母亲律师。”Willow 说，专辑的“Middlesex”信息在于《The Present Moment》，其中宣称：“同伴是我们寻求的药物。”这是一个罕见的、贫民窟式的发现，带有笑声、概念模型和令人兴奋的交织人声。尽管有其内部原因，“我觉得专辑中的所有歌曲都进一步悬挂着，”Willow 说。“而那首歌，我真的很想在音乐节上演奏它。我们在户外，每个人都可以感觉到，我们更强，这让它产生了能量。Present Moment 绝对就像，我感觉！不仅在人群中感觉到并地在 Willow 的演出中哭泣。那是我的一个梦想。”

老年住房指南

活力成年人

活力生活选项提供让您享受居家时光的便利设施

芝加哥地区提供了广泛的活力生活选项，以适应任何偏好。那些被免维护、设施丰富的生活方式所吸引的人来自各行各业和不同背景，有些人仍在工作，有些人则已退休。除了年龄在 55 岁以上之外，他们的共同点是能够享受社区提供的度假村式设施和活动，以及无忧旅行的自由。

“锁门即走”的选项意味着在周末度假或在亚利桑那州或佛罗里达州过冬旅行时，无需担心房屋安全或维护问题。活力成年人住房的选择范围广泛，从别墅式住宅到易于活动的平房设计，再到城市或郊区环境中的豪华公寓。

这些社区（有些类似于度假村或高档酒店）提供的便利设施使得居家享受同样具有吸引力。这些设施可能包括高尔夫球场、游泳池、健身中心、电影院、酒吧和会所等。

当老年人接纳一个更简单、无压力的环境时，他们庆祝摆脱了单户住宅所有权的所有责任，转而专注于扩大社交网络，以及寻求新的爱好或冒险。随着子女长大，责任减轻，选择成为活力生活社区的一员可以是人生中一个令人兴奋的新篇章。

LIFE PLAN

不同人生阶段的住房需求

生命计划社区（Life plan communities），也被称为持续护理退休社区，为现在和未来提供安心保障。其设计方案反映了人生的不同阶段，因此居民可以期待一个无忧的未来。其级别或阶段包括：独立生活、辅助生活、护理和记忆护理。居民可以在生命计划社区中度过余生，并根据需要在不同护理级别之间转移。许多社区还提供手术或医疗事件后的短期康复服务。

这种“生命计划”生活的理念及其合理性对许多老年人及其子女来说是有意义的。父母经常表示他们不想成为子女的负担。虽然子女可能不这么认为，但老年人表示他们更希望保持自主权，其中包括关于如何以及在何处养老的计划。

根据美国卫生与公众服务部的说法，持续护理环境已被证明对居民的健康有益，因为它们引导居民度过衰老过程的所有阶段。研究表明，居住在持续护理社区中的人们比不居住的人更健康且寿命更长。

老年人租赁住房

想要租房的老年人有许多选择

出于多种原因，租一套公寓对许多老年人来说是一个极具吸引力的选择。老年人可以选择不同的价格区间——从豪华的新公寓楼和高端老年社区租赁，到低收入和中等收入选项，其中一些是由专注于该年龄段和收入人群的全国性住房开发商建设的。他们可以选择住在市中心地段——无论是在芝加哥还是郊区城镇——以便靠近便利设施，或者选择远离城市灯火、拥有更多绿地、自然保护区且人口密度较低的公寓综合体。在租赁住房中，水电费通常包含在内，或者至少包含暖气和水费。在高端老年公寓社区中，通常包含所有水电费，以及餐厅、健身中心、游泳池等设施。对于依赖市政、州和联邦公共资金支持的低收入开发项目，则设有年龄指南和收入要求。低收入公寓的需求通常超过供应，因此建议尽早进入候补名单。

辅助生活

通过日常协助维持生活质量

搬入辅助生活社区（assisted living）对您或您的亲人来说是否是正确的选择？在考虑搬迁时，需要考虑的事项包括：是否能够独立管理药物；孤独感是否导致了寂寞和焦虑；日常活动是否变得难以完成——包括获得适当的营养或避免跌倒。虽然放弃自己的家可能很困难，但如果独自生活令人担忧，那么现在可能是时候这样做了。通常，一旦完成过渡，许多老年人会对新环境感到满意。个性化护理侧重于日常生活活动，例如穿衣、洗澡和药物提醒。营养餐食、房屋保洁、洗衣和交通服务，以及社交计划和活动通常都包含在内。此外，许多辅助生活社区还提供医疗服务，例如值班护士和巡诊医生。最近一项关于老年生活选择的调查发现，当老年人搬入辅助生活社区后，73% 的家庭报告其亲人的生活质量有所提高。辅助生活社区的居民本身也表示，搬迁后他们的营养、社交福祉和身体健康均有所改善。

短期与长期护理

可提供居家以外的专业医疗护理

当需要居家以外的专业医疗关注时，需求可能是短期护理或长期护理。短期护理侧重于近期手术或疾病后的恢复与康复。如果需求是持续性的，长期护理则为慢性病或失智症患者提供专业护理。通常，持续护理或生活计划社区提供这两类服务。然而，也有一些机构仅专门提供短期或长期护理服务。

在短期护理环境中，会对患者进行评估，并根据个人的健康需求量身定制护理计划。物理治疗师、职业治疗师、营养师和其他医疗人员的目标一致——让客户尽快重新站起来并回归生活。

长期护理为慢性病患者提供专业护理。这些服务通常面向患有慢性或进行性疾病的人群，如帕金森病、致残性中风或阿尔茨海默病。当老年人的持续需求超过了居家所能提供的范围时，就应该考虑长期护理机构。

记忆护理

专项护理设施在记忆力减退问题出现时提供优质护理

记忆护理是针对被诊断患有阿尔茨海默病或其他形式失智症人士的专业护理。对于决定其亲人将在安全、可靠的环境中获益的家庭，有多种选择。这些选择包括指定的记忆护理大楼或单元，以及专业护理养老院和安全辅助生活设施。近年来，出现了一种仅提供记忆护理的大楼，或同时提供辅助生活和记忆护理的大楼的趋势。居住安排从半私密公寓到私人房间不等。通常，服务与居民的需求和能力相匹配，可包括基本的日常生活活动 (ADLs)，以及药物管理和社交及娱乐活动。提供量身定制的居民计划有助于满足阿尔茨海默病及其他失智症早期、中期和晚期的不同需求。大多数记忆护理设施为自费，但伊利诺伊州的一些设施在州政府的辅助生活计划 (Supportive Living Program) 下接受医疗补助 (Medicaid)。欲了解更多信息，请访问 hfs.illinois.gov。

Nonprofit at center of rift in City Hall

Amid audit, top aide intervened on behalf of anti-violence group

By Alice Yin CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Mayor Brandon Johnson's top aide intervened in a federal dispute this year between Johnson's health commissioner and a politically connected anti-violence group that receives millions in public money despite concerns over how the nonprofit tracks its workers.

The clash unfolded after the Chicago Department of Public Health's 2020 review into the recipients of its community violence interruption grants found issues with collecting data from Archives Inc. It followed health Commissioner Dr. Oluzinbo (gr.) complaints that the organization sought to circumvent the city's required contracting and payment protocol before the was pushed out of the administration.

Archives executives spent months at an able protesting the audit's findings with officials at the health department, which manages the city's anti-violence grants. The conflict played out under the watchful eye of Johnson's senior adviser, Sean Lee—an unusual involvement for a high-rating mayoral staffer, given that the $4 million grant is administered by a separate department.

Johnson's ties to Archives includes a downtown his campaign made to the nonprofit, which also employs a well-known South Side activist whose consulting business has done political work for him as well as did. Pat Bowell, the mayor's handpicked Finance Committee chair and city until last year.

Dusting a back-and-forth with (gr.) team this March over how much the city was paying the organization, Archives Chief Operating Officer Sheila Regan went over the health commissioner's head and appealed to Lee by suing him on an email the Tribune received via a public records request.

'Unimaginable'

Agonized families await answers after remains recovered from funeral home on South Side

By Gregory Royal Pratt, Tess Kenny and Olivia Olander CHICAGO TRIBUNE

The

The Young family hired South Chicago Chapel to prepare Keith, one of seven siblings, father of three and garage door installer, for his visitation. They gathered at a Baptist church on the West Side Thursday and waited to receive his body.

As the board is led by, the family grew anguished. They called the funeral home director, Johanna Morgan, who told them there was police activity in the neighbor hood blocking the way but promised to deliver Keith for visitation.

He never made it.

"They had us under the impression that there was some kind of investigation going on outside the funeral home which hindered them from being able to move around," recalled Leotonia Young, Keith's older brother. "We were under the impression the police would finally let them do what they were supposed to be doing, not knowing the police presence was about them."

The family's experience came after authorities recovered 16 bodies from South Chicago Chapel, removing them slowly through the night and into the morning and driving them to the campus for the painful presence of resulting them with their families.

Records obtained by the Tribune reveal a harrowing scene at the funeral home and a history of problems at a previous crematorium run by its owners. Nearly five dozen decomposing bodies were discovered during a walkthrough of the business at 2000 E. 95th St. after a complaint was filed reporting that remains were not being properly stored at or below 10 degrees Fahrenheit, in accordance with state regulations, according to a police incident report.

Inside the funeral home, sources told the Tribune, authorities encountered bodies on garners but also on dock on alongside equipment. Some of the bodies were not bagged, and some appeared to have severed limbs.

Low Friday, a police spokesman said Calumet Area (Area 4) detectives are conducting a criminal investigation.

New treatment won't cure deadly disease, but it could extend patients' lives by many months

By Lisa Schencker CHICAGO TRIBUNE

When she heard about a new, experimental drug in true pancreatic cancer, Rachelle Gardner tried not to get her hopes up.

She wondered. Would she be eligible for the medication? Would her hospital be allowed to give it to her? Would she live long enough to get it?

In late July, her questions were answered. In an exam room at City

of Hope Cancer Center Chicago, Gardner shook their light blue pith out of a bottle and, sipping water, swallowed them one at a time.

"To good health and getting rid of that cancer bug?" Gardner exclaimed cheerfully after downing the bar pill.

Gardner, a 69-year-old Milwaukee teacher for students who are visually impaired, said the medication has given her "a new sense of hope."

Gardner is one of dozens of

patients in Illinois and across the country who in recent weeks have started receiving the experimental medication, which has been heralded as a breakthrough. The drug, called docosomaxib, does not cure pancreatic cancer, which is one of the deadliest and most difficult-to-treat cancers, but it gives many patients the next best thing: more time.

Typically, most pancreatic cancer spreads in the body beyond the pancreas, patients may only have months to live. But in a recent clinical trial, the drug was given

Prakker stops short of assessing Welch's leadership amid Benton scandal fallout

By Rick Pearson CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Memories after being hailed by his lieutenant general as a 'champion for all women,' Democratic Gov. Jill Prakker declined Friday to offer an opinion on House Speaker Emanuel Teller's 'Hearts of Siderage or Verbally' Welch's public response. Here's adequate addressed but handling of sexual harassment complaints against former state Rep. Harry Benton.

Instead, the Democratic governor called for the Illinois House to move 'very' to 'the' state, new procedures for handling such complaints.

Prakker made the comments at an emotional and personal issue in a alongside Julius Stratton, the lieutenant governor and now the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate — he signed legislature regarding women's health protections and the government's violence victims.

Welch created a House Democratic working group on 'Workforce Culture and Accountability' to improve to the Benton fallout. Prakker said the group should act quickly despite the caution expressed by Welch's chief executive, and that 'we are in the that the group 'will take the time necessary' and that in 'goal is not to respond to a news cycle or male through race/standardization for the sake of prohibiting a report.' 'The evidence here There are already models for dealing with this in our states. I believe that there doesn't need to be used in the case of the state's working group,' Prakker said 'it is important, in my opinion.'

House Speaker Emanuel Teller's 'Hearts of Siderage or Verbally' Welch's public response. Here's a case of the state's registered senator at the Illinois State Capitol in Springfield, in June 1. JAMES A. KIM/TORRHINE

to, for this to happen very quickly because there's no reason for this (not) to be. We're not rationing the wheel here. The nation's first federal out-hatched state senators to come forward and make sure they get justice when they've been harassed.

Prakker's remarks follow a media contract from the Welch or salesman, and that notably included the Tribune, which revealed a July 21 story that the spack of office have about sexual harassment allegations against Benton three years ago after the news reported by a former Benton staffer. The speaker didn't take the time to make any statement about Benton and they saw whose hands left him and the rest harassed by him at a River North bar in January. He was the reporter's report. A legislative request generated a report reported that the White House also found that a staffer for another legislator had been rarely complained of harassment by Benton.

Critics, including some members of Welch's House Democratic representative, have questioned why the speaker failed to act on the former Senate staffer's 2023 complaints, went on to provide them $14 million toward the state senators to come forward and make sure they get justice when they've been harassed.

Welch's claim, contending Benton had no real influence over organized labor's decisions.

'Welch also said Benton was entitled to 'the process' — even as the speaker has not thought more to discipline other Democratic members for a 'clothing' with, stopping them to their own members—help, committee assignments and staff resources.

Asked to assess Welch's position, he then made outline he did speak with, Prakker said in 'the little there were a lot of different things said that successful in comprehensive work in our state.' The line of different things in different categories: 'Little the Tribune, none of those, unlike interviewed θεατρικές occasions, leaving Welch to present a budget one-sided account.'

Prakker, who is seeking protection and is considered a potential 2026 White House committee, again, has been a major contribution about his opinion of Welch's leadership in seeing it was up to the members of the Hispanic decks on who we are a spout.

'The members are, in fact, I believe, holding the speaker responsible. That is, for everything to them, I believe, I am looking at that he comes up with an appropriate process and one that actually works for someone to get justice when they work for the 10 members of the House of Representatives and I am informed that the two were Democratic governor said.

'It seems like other states have learned how, but not because of the performance in the state of Illinois, he said.

Johnson says banks won't bite on debt sale plan

By Jake Sheridan CHICAGO TRIBUNE

News Branden Johnson's administration again warned allotment Thursday that their plan to sell $5 billion in city-owned debt isn't finding any talent, leaving a hole in share 2026 budget policy.

Banks continue to refuse to bite on the role of selling the debt, citing short-of-club budget making it a 'said deal' for the state and before allotment, according to a memo sent to Allentown by Johnson's top budget staffers.

It's another blow for the state's most continuous, and part of the city's 2026 budget. Johnson represents passed over the mayor's dissonance.

The state's 2026 Johnson budget team owned the sale of debt like the sale will refer the federal would not help in the 1991 million allotment. However, a production the new memo says is proving true.

'Only two banks responded to the city's request for the 2026 budget. The 2026 budget is 1,000,000, according to the memo required by 4.5% Council ordinance and authority for Congress for Michael Beible.

That he did, it represents a new vendor, which Bank of America walked away from

the proposed debt sale after several meetings earlier in the same month. In 1991, the bank 3000 allotment of the challenges and risks of the transaction outweighed one potential bundle in the city' after two July meetings. Banks wrote.

In the memo, Beible wrote that the challenges the administration has been investing in fund an institution to sell the debt from loans consistent and, among other considerations, include the confidentialized and private of citizen data, the viability and risks of the evidence (particularly risks associated with legal challenges), future policy or legislative decisions, reputational concerns of potential future and public interest considerations.

Johnson has been using areas of the state since before it became law. Here's the difference: 1991 million estimate as up to date was warning that such a sale of 1,000 is in debt collectors on poor Chicago use. But Johnson's up to date's money plugged ahead, powering the revenue package that included the debt sale in a 29-35 vein, and Julius son decided to not veto it as a critical day. A deadline is generally set for 1996 and unlikely to be able to pass an

alternative.

Allentown have since 1993 been a Johnson. He intentionally blocked key allotment and Beible budget, including the buying fee for an allotment in legalize rules, getting machines in the city and by making only a half-pound allotment of the debt. 'Beating to the memo' Thursday afternoon, AM Anthony Bude, 4th, said the sale has filed failed because of the terms placed on the Johnson's administration. The mayor is not to be told trying to complete the debt sale and is instead 'in a cheap trade,' he said.

'This administration is consistent with trying to make the budget fail, they're not trying to witness make it work,' said Bude, one of Johnson's most vocal opponents during the budget fight.

For his part, Johnson has maintained allotment against an unfinished budget. But proposals approved by the opposition he dubbed the 'corporate caucus' have running $150 million above the budget. The company has only $32 million under budget through May because other revenues have outperformed expectations, the mayor said at a July news conference. Johnson's administration has made a great deal effort to sell the debt, said Black

Borden, a senior city finance officer.

The addition to typical public solicitations, the mayor's finance team took the unusual step of reaching out directly to 20 financial institutions to push the sale. Borden said: A dedicated administration working group has held over 20 meeting focused on the debt sale this year, he added.

'To 'been a walk' broad and broad, the budget to try to really ensure that we have great pressure coming to the table that would structure a transition that again frankly is a good way to take type of program,' he said.

Borden said the plan is unprecedented and added that the negotiating budget will be a good way to create a media test 85 million to 150 million from such a sale, a return that would shrink further with seller and company.

'The memo comes at a key moment for the Johnson administration's finance arm.'

The bank's — Budget Director Antonio Guzman and acting CEO Steven Maile — have left City Hall in recent weeks, just as the administration prepares for another team on he speaking to the request set to begin in October.

Bill to protect drug discount program signed into law

By Lisa Schencher CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Gov. Jill Prakker signed a billion law Friday that places past 8:45 on drug discount program that hospitals and other health care providers and their families, including those now for vulnerable patients.

The new law prohibits drugmakers from restricting the number of types of pharmacies that hospitals and other providers can contract with their families, according to their patients through a federal program called the 340B Drug Pricing Program. In the first 10th century, the federal program was introduced and requirements on providers and pharmacies participating in the program.

The new 2000 billion called the Patient Access or Pharmacy Protection Act, subpounds 'fifteen patients' access to high-quality, affordable care, 'a spokesperson for the governor's office' and its

statement Friday.

'This legislature strengthens promotions for healthcare providers participating in the federal program and preserves access to lower cost prescription medications through the safety and therapeutic program of the nonnon-non-on-the-patient services,' one 'the spokesperson and in the statement.

'Under the federal 340B program, 45+ people in a private outpatient medical center might be allowed to pay for the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the

The idea behind this program is to bring healthcare providers signed services using the money they can and pass the medication savings on to patients.

But drug manufacturers argue that the savings are not being passed along to patients, and that hospitals and others are instead pushing from the program.

'Large to a exempt hospitals and their for-profit partners are explaining the program, buying medicines at many discounts and then reaching them up by those made of dollars,' Will May, a spokesperson for industry group for the state's contact, Research and Manufacture and America, said its statement.

'Across the country and here in Illinois, 340B is driving up costs for patients to pay for the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the 10% of the

Primary Health Care Association, said in a news release, 'They were health centers can continue helping patients access affordable medications while reinforcing 340B savings into expanded services, workforce density and the health care system management. Behavioral health care and other critical programs that improve health outcomes.'

The Illinois Health and Hospital Association also said that the program is:

'The governor also signed a bill into law Friday requiring the Illinois Department of Insurance to study how the state's 2000 state and state pharmaceutical companies participate in the 340B program.

'Enhanced transparency to help the state in the valuable communities receive the benefits intended from the Patient Access or Pharmacy Protection Act,' according to the legislation.

'You're taking away the habitat'

From piping plovers to dragonflies, federal changes could threaten endangered Midwest wildlife

By Finnegan Balbani CHICAGO TIMUNE

As temperatures hovered around 80 degrees and low clouds obscured a bright blue sky, many people took the opportunity to enjoy a summer day last week at Montrose Beach. Children dug birds in the sand. Parodies kicked around soccer balls. And some cautiously waded into water against crashing waves.

At a nearby stone pier, people participated in a different type of entertainment that watching. Present in the area were the American herring gull, mallards and sandwings. But enthusiasts walking in the edge of a fenced off sanctuary here asking each other the same question. Had anyone seen a piping plover?

The very sand-colored shoreline - a เลขที่๙๙North America's salient bird and an unusual dragonfly - are among many animals in the Midwest that may be affected by recent changes weakening the Endangered Species Act, the primary use nothing conservation of an euk wildlife in the U.S.

Alongside other alterations, the administration of President Donald Trump changed the definition of 'You're taking away the habitat' - 'You're taking away the habitat' it needs to survive. That was a common sense element of the Endangered Species Act.

'If you take water away from a fish, you're going to harm that fish,' said Jim Gorsel, national wildlife campaign manager at the Sierra Club. 'You're taking away the habitat it needs to survive. That was a common sense element of the Endangered Species Act.'

EVEN LESS PROTECTION Gorsel identified the piping plover as one animal insignificant risk due to the change in how harm is defined, saying the birds are an Endangered Species Act 'successfully'.

The Great Lakes' piping plover's predation was the only action law of about 15 years in the 1940s after habitat loss due to beach development, according to Chicago Piping Flowers, which tracks the birds. Numbers rebounded to around 80 last year after significant conservation efforts.

Tanzima Plant, leader of Chicago Piping Flowers, said the Chicago Park District has been an excellent portion in providing sanctuary for the birds. What's concerning to her about the habitat changes, she said, is what will happen when piping plover'sity starts for the winter.

'That's what I worry about, will these beaches be protected and preserved in the wild to return to?' Plant said.

The Endangered Species Act always allowed developers to modify habitats, said Kristine Boyles, managing attorney at Earthjustice. The legal nonprofit focuses on environmental issues.

But for state, local and private projects, Boyles said developers have been required to create 'habitat conservation plan' to receive construction permits. She called these places where it was being dated how endangered species habitats will be destroyed but in lesser amounts than they would have been otherwise.

'Third practitioners, 'Us, do and 'I want to make it to grow to do not, even if it destroys and degrades some habitat, it's lawful because you're come up with resources for strategies, or you're doing things like humiliating them on initially would,' Boyles said.

While the Endangered Species Act has developed, only one of these changes is into effect next month, even fewer protection will exist. Boyles said, developers will no longer need to submit habitat conservation plan,

she said.

'Conservetism, groups, represented by Earthjustice, said the Trump administration last month to restore the prior definition of harm.

According to the U.S. Department of the Interior's website, the reclassification was based on a U.S. Supreme Court case from 2016 requiring agencies 'to follow the single best meaning of a state or rather than constitutional law to fit political agendas.'

Boyles said that interpretation is incorrect. The case they cite actually gives the euk of interpreting regulations to courts instead of agencies, she said.

Boyles said it's still unknown exactly what will happen when the changes go into effect. Agencies will likely begin to approach the permitting process from the perspective that harm no longer constitutes modifying an endangered species habitat, she said.

'Based on the statute itself, I would hope that very little would change,' Boyles said. 'But I think I would hope to wait.'

After the harm reclassifications, the Trump administration announced two additional changes to the Endangered Species Act, according to a July 17 statement. First was the removal of protection anatomic adequate for the natural species, starting them similarly to endangered species.

Second, the term 'critical habitat' must consider 'economic, national security and other relevant impacts'. In area can now die about the critical habitat label if the exclusion will not cause the extinction of a species.

WOODPING CRANE WISDOMS

Earlier this year, Gorsel said he took his children to the Horizon National Wildlife Refuge in Wisconsin. They were among many observing whooping cranes. North America's tallest birds, from of them broad in Wisconsin, and males can stand about the last tail, according to the U.S.

Fish and Wildlife Service:

'It's a great way to teach our kids about the success of the Endangered Species Act and the importance of protecting the fullest for animals that need it,' Gorsel said.

Whooping cranes are another lifebeesters animal at risk due to Endangered Species Act changes.

Rich Brillians, president and CEO of the International Crane Foundation, said the law has been especially useful when trying to prevent the building of power lines where whooping cranes may collide with them.

'The Endangered Species Act is a tool in the toolbox for that, but it can be a very important one when you're against a flag project that really is harmful for the enormous development process,' Brillians said.

Three years before President Richard Nixon signed the law in 1975, the whooping crane was listed as endangered under the act's predecessor, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's website. 'I'm of thousands of those birdmen all to live in North America but following habitat loss, the population dropped to just 15 in 1980. There are estimated to be more than 500 whooping

cranes today after the sale of a wetland power crane under the Endangered Species Act. In the U.S. Department of the Interior's July 17 statement, Secretary Thomas Gorsel said the law has driven up costs for families, weakened the country's competitiveness and indeterminate national security.

But Brillians said the law was more about maintaining a delicate balancing act between human and environmental sources.

'The Endangered Species Act was never about getting the well-being of species over the well-being of people,' he said. 'It's really about trying

to create a state for trying to do development better, more sustainable, keeping development out of areas that will really have a significant impact on species we can't about.'

'I find this will start as too far toward not having any voice in these lands of decisions,' Brillians said.

DRAGONTV

CHALLENGES

'Specie living is specialised to maintain an particularly valued afield habitat destruction, said Maria Garcia-Feralty emeritus at McHenry County College. One example is the Hau's emerald dragon-

fly, the only dragonfly on the federal endangered species list. Research suggests these insects, found in northeastern Illinois and other Midwestern states, require burrows created by Great Plains building and even plowing over the mineral dolomite, Garrison said.

Garrison said killing individual insects for otherwise and even only snails a concern. Every child should have a dog at all times, she said. The most significant impacts to insect populations come from human disturbances to habitats.

Garrison said a perfect example of how it is dependent on critical habitat, not on individual hunting or loss, Garrison said.

'I'm not going to take aquatic resources supervisor at the Forest Resource District of Dalham County and the most robust population of Illinois. I'm not going to take a new County Wisconsin, at roughly 1,000 a dollar per year. Omega said that is a relatively low, but stable, number for at least 1,000.

Throughout all of Illinois, he said there are an estimated 2,000 to 3,000 people.'

'For an insect, that is considered living on the birds of origination or local extinction from Illinois,' Orogs said. 'I'm not going to take a new county in insect habitats can be harmed, Garrison gave the example of water trickling down a hill into a wetland. It's boasting and cuddling, and so you could cut off the soar or of water and destroy this habitat. Sometimes developers pledge to remove these habitats, but it's not possible to fully increase what was already there, Garrison said.

'You can't rebuild some things that took tens of thousands of years to form through glacial deposits,' she said.

'Omega also said fully recruiting natural conditions for the dragonflies would be very difficult due to impossible. However, the forest freezers has gotten 'very close' by modifying areas with characteristics already conducive to the species, he said.

'Down the road, there may be other areas identified that have similar characteristics that, with some man-made modifications and restrictions, could become, or become again, Hau's emerald habitats,' Orogs said.

Garrison said insects, sometimes seen as just 'living and singing things,' are often more likely to be found in the above conservation. They can also be less visible than the animal people look for at Montrose Beach.

EVENVOISE ELSE

Also Terranu, i.d. stood on the stone pier watching birds through a pier off back binoculars. She was looking for yellow, but, upon hearing, it's going to see 'our spurned out for that morning, said the Chaco-ou back front.

Terranu said she logo birds at River Park for a local waterfront. 'I'm not going to take the thistle fondly to the peregrine falcons that sometimes nest on her Edgewater high-rise.'

'I find it helps me to appreciate the city at an additional way,' Terranu said. 'In the city there's some and alarms, and here it's like, OK, here's a bird.'

Like June, Terranu said the city of Chicago does a great job superming the piping plovers. The Park District expanded the birds' habitat at the Montrose Beach in 2016 and the National Wildlife Campaign's piping plovers confirmed to nest in Chicago on over half a century, unifed city residents around their race are coming close.

However, local involvement only matters so much when regulations like the Endangered Species Act keep up the potential of federal level, Terranu said.

'One time, what everyone else is doing is going to affect us, even if we are protecting Chicago,' Terranu said.

Suburbs put guardrails on filmmaking activities

By Steve Zakody

DALY HERALD

With filmmaking giants a firm football in the state, suburbs like Naperville, Lake and Long Grove have either put guardrails in place to protect their own. The working toward that goal.

Flamaking and business in Illinois, with expenditures in the state resulting a record of 50 million in 2025, is an unspoiled Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity Office of Film.

The state would leave them 2,000 million in 2025, and that is the vastest of New Haven, Illinois and Illinois.

"We're getting more and more feature films coming to Illinois," Stanley said. "They're not on soundtheta. They're almost all on business."

Stanley said 90% of the state's film production was in the Chicago area. That activity is validating suburban myself.

Long Grove has been one community reading film benefits. He read a learnt book provided an attractive body to the state's Chicago-based romance.

Now the village is discussing amending the village's crisis to insure guidelines on commercializing a primary raphy. The proposed ordi-

tance would establish fees of 2,000 per day for small production with 30 people in fewer, 2000 per day for medium production with between 2 and 30 people, and 10,000 per day for large production with greater than 30 people.

Toward a family what the fees and process would be to receive a permit in Illinois the downtown is at Long Grove, generally," Village Manager Chris Epslins said.

He said the ordinance is

intended to offer some of the village's crisis to implement method one in particular, associated with the closing of the iconic covered bridge on Robert Parker Cuffo Road.

The ordinance would include a 2000 per day for the following the bridge for special events.

Other service have baked guidelines for filming into their crisis, balancing friendliness with accountabilities. Those items include Napar-

ville, where the 2022 release "What Cents Are Loose?" was shot in 2008, using such local status as the city's Brownsville.

Under Naperville guidelines, filming may inflict strong or sidewalks on plans a permit through the Commission's Service Department depending on conditions.

Online conditions may focus blocking streets and sidewalks, and road closures to the production of any filming noise and the use of disruptive

or alarming lighting equipment or props. With a service may also be required, with the product non-company responsible for their cost.

Other requirements include notification of surrounding businesses, residences, schools and hospitals of worship.

Explains on, pyrotechnics, and offer: Including, Handic, weapons and spending can are prohibited unless approved by the city.

In addition, the Naperville Park District must be contacted for filming on the Brownsville.

Lake Community Engagement Specialist Amanda Paxden said the village requires a permit for commercial filming, with exceptions to some media and portrait photographs.

The Village Board has been in support of commercial filming in general, so the local government is in effect that," Paxden said.

Application must put in the cost of any public public works or other village process not assigned to the project. Disruptive use of a public

building or facility, including public, trust, degree, or trust platform, could result from an alleged 2,000 million years of their communities.

In the 2025, including public, trust, degree, or trust platform, could result from an alleged 2,000 million years of their communities.

Under said the Illinois Film Office knows permitting to municipalities or regional offices, like men in the Quad Cities or Champaign County, and the city's public securities," he said.

Stanley said he offer does provide best practices on what is public public here, i.e. do not have a public office to make a car or their communities.

John Booker, who co-founded product company Throughlaw Films with a 2,000 million in 2025, produces Christmas demand remains more in the high than Very Merry Entertainment area, said regulations very amply limit the public.

"We have rolled into communities where they have never had film production before, so they are kind of figuring it out along with us," he said.

The city's lower amounts tend anything that would fall production.

"I've never seen an application for that I thought was truly unreasonable," Booker said.

Familial/boat crash victim sues man over death in Fox River

By Charles Haskins DALY HERALD

It was a picture-perfect moment, Saturday after some for Alan Feinati and Magdalena Jablonska as the engaged couple from Doc Palmer spent July 28 aboard their boat cruising through the town.

After enjoying at a small bar for a seven with Jablonska's adapted dog, Saba, the biggest leading man's up the boat, said that he had a job to stop for a bite to eat.

Then came to an thundered up from behind them as they small boat dowed to enter a no-wake zone south of the McHenry River.

"I heard loud engines and I looked to my left for plugged, and she was gone," Tehniini said. "I other than the other, I was not sure. I just want to make sure other people don't go through that."

Authorities say this was a case from a 10-foot boat equipped with three 1000-horsepower engines that were propelling a se bar in the north where I was in Chicago with Doc Palmer couple's boat. The largest killed Jablonska, 44, and nearly cut the smaller craft in half.

Tehniini spoke about the crash and his bus Thursday at some conference in Chicago announcing that he and Jablonska's family had been in the 1920s and had a lawsuit against that boat owner and driver Richard M. Stevenson of Lake.

"We'll like two battles," said Tehniini. "I want to make sure other people are here (on the river) can enjoy it."

The unit filed a McHenry County Circuit Court, alleges Stevenson's death was 1,000 million in 2025, "in a million and dangerous manner" when the crash occurred about 2:40 p.m. July 28.

The lawsuit adds to Stevenson's legal failure from the crash. The 60-year-old smoker, who had been the McHenry County Aid Board member, is also a driving under the influence and reckless homicide. Prosecutors allege he had a blood clot on his chest that rests the legal limit of driving when he was tested after the crash.

A message left with Stevenson's criminal defense attorney was not announced over a

1,000 million in 2025, and the net for Tehniini and Jablonska's estate, described Stevenson that day as "a fought man leading right for the people." He was a reputation for driving reckless in the river and Duke O'Lakes.

"People are out trying to have recreational family

time with their children, with their family, their friends, and those people have historically been got at risk by this particular driver," Cairo said.

"Revenues says, 'We see that boat all the time. He's always flying back and forth, back and forth.'" he added. "We see him coming, get out of the way."

Cairo labeled Stevenson a "spoiled son" who used wealth generated by the early 1960s could business. Bringing back to our 1960s, to purchase the 2020 South Eur triticon boat for nearly $1000,000 last year.

In a statement three days later the crash, Stevenson Crane said Richard Stevenson had been fired from the company, whose website previously identified him as a vice president.

The suit seeks at least $10,000 in damages. No maximum the plaintiffs must state at this point of the litigation.

"The biggest thing that Jablonska's family wants more than anything to use has gone, and then the crew company, but from exactly Cairo and of Stevenson. "This man should spend the cost of his life in jail for what he did. That is by far the biggest goal for this family to see this guy off the waters, because there are thousands of families that use the Grand Calais every single day, and they should be able to use it and go home at the end of the day."

Jablonska's family and friends are preparing to set goodfires to her at memorial services the weakest them in 1954. Poland, Poland, and the men of the United States are a child and several as US Marine before settling in the Northwest suburbs.

Jablonska believes her younger sister by 14 years, and Jablonska helped leave her as a child and had been helping her look after her children.

"I've always called my sister for everything - any stress or something with my life," Macias said. "If they include someone they had her to go as a backup. Now they've lost that support."

She and Tehniini described Jablonska as someone who loved spending time with family and the government's staff during people and animals to teach. An online fund loan started in her memory has raised more than $10,000 in the 2020s annual distress she supported.

"Maggie always said everything happens for a reason," Macias said. "But there's no reason why this should have happened."

Plan to raise toll rates every 2 years under fire

By Maret Pyke

DALY HERALD

For some Illinois driver, the striker shock of a nearly 50% toll increase proposed for 2027 has influenced influence on landfills as well to occur every two years effective 2025 if approved.

But not Georgia's Tenn. Braun. "Perhaps the most disturbing term in the toll way is impact to the ability to raise the toll in the future," thought. "I should increase," Braun testified at a recent hearing in Senate.

"The families of Illinois are already retained with the increased cost of being - the Illinois tollway feels it needs to do my own make it worse," he added.

The new revenue is needed for a 10-year, $24.1 billion capital program, Driving Connections, What to take is content.

"In order to maintain the tollway's 1-million-material plan that will result in less congestion, and improved roads, the tollway is preparing inflation adjustments every other year," spokesperson Jorlin McGinnis said.

"This is a standard station of practice for tollways across the nation and will enable Illinois tollway to provide consumers with the best possible roadways."

Under the proposal, a restaurant who drives on 1-10 from that region is won downtown and had 10-9 miles a year would be charged $500 in 2027, up from $600 this year if 4.5% increase over two years was applied to these bills, that could grow to around $1,000 in 2025 in a $400 more than in 2026, a preliminary underpictment.

4.4% in 2024 and 2.8% in 2025.

"They have had increased total revenues each of the last four years across our country of inflation.

NAPERVILLE

Happy hour ban should be lifted, panel says

By Carolyn Stein

NAPERVILLE SUN

Rethinking Naperville Restaurant and bar patrons may soon again get to enjoy a discounted and off-resoon cocktail or four if the Naperville 2025 campaign over the Naperville Liquor Commission's unanimous recommendation Thursday that restrictions on happy hour do not be lifted, panel said.

New guidelines proposed for happy hour would mirror state regulations with the several that discounted drinks must end at 7 p.m. instead of the state's cutoff time of 10 p.m.

"We're at a competitive disadvantage with our neighborhood, and maybe that, alive happy hour," said Kevin Reed, vice president of operations for Rough's Rhencom. Ralston said, but he is Agree.

In February, Reed said he was had a couple with his leader in Agree in Naperville and, as what happy hour specials the restaurant offered. When the restaurant ultimately caught that fast, he said, "I'm not sure to offer special alcoholic drink due to local restrictions, the couple was displaced."

"They said, OK, gonna be fighting to Flintshold," he said.

He called that while Atche & Agree and Haggards Naperville does offer happy hour food discounts, being able to

offer discounted drinks as well would likely increase revenue at both locations by around at 15%.

Reed wants the only one in their off-resonng Lipton's restrictions. Multiple people, some of whom do not work off this to the restaurant industry, spoke in favor of the change.

Monica Conners, president of the Naperville River's Senate National Committee, has completed a particularly fierce for restaurant that border other communities. The local law hurts them, she said.

"A lot of our chain restaurants actually can't come today because they're part of a national corporation but they are not going to be a large because we've one of the few communities nationally that don't offer happy hour," Conners said, speaking on behalf of Dine Naperville. "So, from a marketing group that we're really difficult for them to manage the marketing program that are coming out for their heads."

John Zydowicz, general manager for Dine Naperville, said many of the customers coming to his restaurant between 4 and 6 p.m. never the age of the restaurant. "I'm not sure to change people abusing happy hour drink in millions."

"Everybody from Naperville should choose our item. The people who come in

looking for happy hour are disappointed, and with over 2,000 people said, 'They don't buy anything because there's no liquor and they're looking for restaurant companies.'

Happy hour promotions were against the law in Illinois, and the state's other Gov. Bruce Kramer signed legislation allowing them to return with restrictions, including a ban on present and the state's tax on the day and 15 hours per week and a ban on volume specials like two drinks for the price of one.

Although the state ban we lifted more than a decade ago, the Naperville Liquor Commission voted in 2017 to keep the city's ban on happy hour. "I'm not sure to change people. At the time, Commissioner Steve Chicks said, the city was still grappling with how to control all other related incidents."

"We were having a lot of time in our downtown. Things got out of control," he said. "This was when social media started getting really really popular and that was a good thing. We were first around about Naperville and how would it take at night."

That included a shrunk or driving crash in 2016 to 2020, the state's statesigma drowned in a water-filled Naperville Park District quarry and a 2012 staking death of an elementary school teacher during a

deterchance inside a club on Chicago Avenue.

Following those incidents and others, the city implemented a number of restrictions to help curb alcohol-related trouble, including a ban on allowing patrons to stay in the city on a restaurant or for a plan in the hour before closing.

When the commission revoked the happy hour and the state's Naperville was starting to get a handle on its alcohol issues. The commission was worried that lifting the ban would undo what had been accomplished.

Recreational managers Thursday argued that since then, there have been a lot of problems that have allowed people to enjoy happy hours since safety. Ralstons service side Ubar and Lyd have become more popular and technology through which restaurant owners are not able to buy.

Liquor commissioners agreed.

"I would be very comfortable supporting a restaurant. I would be very comfortable with the 'main' guidelines for happy hour." Chris Leach "I think it makes sense at this point. I think some of the concerns we had made about the environment, and I think the rules we've put to place."

The Naperville council will make a final decision on the issue at a future meeting.

DRUG

from Page 2A

to patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who had already undergone a previous treatment, and those patients lived for a median of about 13 months after being enrolled in the study, compared with a median of about six months for patients who had additional chemotherapy instead of daracourash.

Dr. Ryan Plock, a medical oncologist at City of Hope Cancer Center Chicago, called it the biggest advance in treating pancreatic cancer in decades.

"This is honestly a game change," Plock said. "That's the thing that changes what we can offer patients. It's the first targeted therapy we're able to offer them, the first thing other than just giving chemotherapy."

The drug has not yet been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, but the FDA is allowing drug manufacturer Revolution Medicines to give the medication to eligible patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who've already tried other treatments, under an expiration time program.

Physicians must submit requests for the medication to Revolution for individual patients. The drug-provided by the medication is intended to patients who are part of the expanded access program.

"It gives the patients an advantage to not have to sit around, or wait because a lot of them don't have that kind of time," Plock said of the expanded access program.

At City of Hope Cancer Center Chicago, Gardner is one of seven or eight patients beginning to receive the drug, Plock said. Other Illinois health systems that have started giving the medication to patients in recent weeks under the expanded access program include Advocate Health Care, ODT HealthCare, Endoway Health and University of Chicago Medicine.

UChicago Medicine was also a clinical trial site for the recent study of the medication.

The drug's ability to heighten the force of patients who have tried other treatments is "unprecedented in pancreatic cancer," said Dr. Anheuser Shergill, a medical oncologist and bodyinvestigator of the Associated at UChicago Medicine.

"In oncology we are trying to help patients live longer," Shergill said. "If you can establish them golden. That is the goal of treating metastatic diseases." Shergill said patients also reported in the study that their pain, appetite and energy were better with daracourash compared with chemotherapy.

received the drug through UChicago Medicine, Mary Louise McAdams, 94, of Brownsville, said she was initially told the probably had about six months to a year to live when she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2024.

She said she underwent chemotherapy and radiation, but treatment was made in her body. At one point, she said she had to be hospitalized because of side effects.

When she learned she could get the new drug through the expanded access program, she thought it sounded promising and wanted to give it a try.

McAdams has now been on daracourash for about two weeks.

"I hope I can prolong my life more. I don't know how long but rather than six months to a year longer, I'd like to live as long as possible, as long as I'm functional and able to contribute to my care somewhat. I'm looking forward to some more years of life with my children and

grandchildren," said McAdams, who has five children and four grandchildren.

Gardner, who took her medication at City of Hope Cancer Center Chicago in Zion in late July, said she never imagined these years ago, when she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, that a new drug might help her live longer.

Arthat time, Gardner didn't realize anything was amoelectric she developed a strong rash on her arms and chest. An urgent care center next her home with prednisone and Rematch to clear up the rash, she said.

But the rash didn't improve and she developed jaundice, so she underwent more testing that revealed problems with her liver and gallbladder. Ultimately, she was diagnosed with Hope's pancreatic cancer. She and her fiance were doing at their kitchen table when she got the call.

"We looked at each other and started a drug," Gardner said. She said she thought, "I've just going to die now.

What do we do?"

At a different hospital, Gardner underwent months of difficult chemotherapy and three a complex surgery called the Whipple procedure, which involves removing the head of the pancreas, part of the small intestine, the gallbladder and the bile duct.

She said she was then told to get more chemotherapy and, at that point, decided to seek opinions from other hospitals, including City of Hope Cancer Center Chicago. She was impressed with the hospital and Plock and decided to stay.

For a time, there was no evidence of the disease in her body. It had off until spring of 2025, when the cancer came back at Hope's, she said. She began a different type of chemotherapy, and underwent radiation treatment earlier this year.

By May of this year, however, daracourash has been the chemotherapy and radiation would no longer work for her. She said, "I don't have to be the cancer to beat me," Gardner said. "I'm like, 'Nope, not going to do it.'"

Supporting her correction was the view that City of Hope Cancer Center Chicago was applying to get daracourash for her and other patients.

Gardner's experience shows the importance of clinical research, and Debra DeBone, CEO of City of Hope, which has cancer centers in Illinois, California, Georgia and Arizona.

"It takes so long, at times, to have therapies work their way through the regular-

tory system, and discovery is happening so fast that, at times, clinical trials and expanded access programs are the best treatment option for patients. And this is a perfect example," Reese said. Now that Gardner has received the medication - which has to be taken every day - also represents about the year to come.

She hopes the pills will give her more time.

More time to go on road trips and try new restaurants with her fiance. More time to teach. More time to spend with her two grown sons and her little grandparents and grandmothers, who call her Auntie Gaga.

"There's hope out there," Gardner said.

DOWNERS GROVE

Sewer flood survivor wants evidence preserved

By Susan DeAmoulias DAILY HERALD

The attorney for a man who survived a sewer flooding that killed an worker in Downers Grove is making a court order to preserve the evidence of what happened that day.

Attorney Michelle Kohut, a partner with Cothier's Dentistry, who represents J. Guadalupe Almanza, said she is asking a Cook County judge to order that evidence of the July 27 accident in Downers Grove be preserved. She is also seeking permission to subpoena records from various entities, including the company doing the sewer work, Texas-based Vortex Systems LLC.

Kohut said four Vortex employees, including her client, were working in a storm sewer when the accident occurred.

The village had hired Vortex for a storm sewer maintenance project. The men were spraying the inside of the pipe, Kohut said.

The workers had shut off the flow of water from St. Joseph's road into the pipe, there were the truck underneath downtown Downers Grove. The remaining water in the pipe was about unlikelihood.

According to Kohut, the four workers were not tied off to anything outside the pipe. They were roughly 1,000 for time the pipe when a severe storm hit.

The pipe quickly filled with rainwater, and the workers ended up in chum deep water, according to Kohut.

Almanza, who was chosen to whom they entered the pipe, was able to tread water and make his way back to a maintenance hole. He and another worker were able to dindovat.

According to Kohut,

from Yoga &

Lee soon weighed in. He also included Johnson's chief of staff, Cristina Paciano-Zayts.

"Thank you Sheila," Lee wrote on March 3. "CDPH team, please provide us prompt delivery to express as possible, in the Mayor's office, we are available for a call as well if it is easier to discuss verbally to reach clients. Our interest is in the new media/advocate into on the program as soon as possible."

The next day, he sat in on a meeting with CDPH officials to which the hospital's CIO, LeVion Stone, and Regan argued the department's audit and subsequent attempts to improve how the new practice monitors the progress of its ambulance officers were wholly unreasonable, according to the health department records, asget the discussion that we obtained via a Freedom of Information Act request.

The audit fight was the culmination of months of frustration from lips, which of one point explored the idea of not removing Acclivat contract, email record shown.

In statements to the Tribune, both Regan and LeVion, the group's senior liaison Novels denied that the organization, which scored the highest during the 2024 award process, ever floated the city's bidding. Karami sought favoritism.

"We understand chain of command and protocol, Regan wrote, adding Acclivat never perused additional funding, with 'clarity' on the final amount. 'We escalated appropriately only when were (sic) unable to get timely and complete responses to our CDPH.'"

As for Lee involving himself so closely, Novels said he only proposed a call to 'prevent further delay, errors, and confusion' after the 2024 budget passed, exceedingly late into December.

But once the city's ambulance dollars were approved, Novels said CDPH allocated more of the additional funds to the other parties. Metropolitan Family Services.

"CDPH did not consult with the Mayor's office on the specific allocation of the increased investment net did their updated proposal change after it was approved by the Mayor's Office," Novels wrote. "The Mayor's Office's only intervention was ensuring that the environment budgeted dollars were appropriately to meet outreach and other key projects registered, of which specific groups received funding, and with amounts."

The source of Acclivat was the source of a result with Lee stemmed from the health department issuing an award letter for the group showing the organization's success. "We wanted to a separate scope of work discussed here if it's OK," Novels said that was a 'clerical' area by CDPH and that the number 16,000 millions amount stands.

Will, Robert, for Illinois Executive Director Alias Kaplan said it was instead to see the mayor's top leadership because 'touched in the 2024 platform's annual dispute instead of leaving that to CDPH.'

"If Dr. Ige's account of accurate, which striking the problem is not to expect special treatment from the mayor's office and reportedly appealed to City Hall as effective for the national requirements for grantees," Kaplan wrote.

"It's not clear they except that special treatment, but the patient's taken part of the hospital's office is too too t始奠定 with the mayor's office and whether it affected how millions in public funds were spent."

Ige declined to speak with the Tribune, but he said that he was a member of periodical at the between law and Acclivat.

"All were will be on CDPH with the additional funding, ended to make violence prevention this year," Ige wrote on Feb. 10 to Lee, then-therapy Mayor of Safety Garland (presented by the 2024 National Action and Human Services Action) Carville. "Prior water to door results for those funds, it is important that our de-

gates can and will work with us to ensure that all data is support the work they are doing is made available. Below are all of the issues with Acclivat.

Ige alleged Acclivat first 'released to apply' to the city's request for proposals from companies that wanted ambulance money, and instead directly asked the mayor's office for funds, but 'we eventually got them to apply to the RFP.'

Then she wrote, '389y the replication, Acclivat refused to sign the contract and wanted advance payment — we eventually got them to apply after several meetings.'

Only Gatewood, who himself was fired the next month, responded to Ige's thread and thanked her. Ige forwarded the thread to Paxime-Zame the same day.

Regan hit back at the former health commissioner in her statement: 'The claims made in Dr. Ige's email are all fearless and she do not make sense.'

The city typically issues RFP's during its procurement process to solicit services at a competitive price, a practice meant to curb pay-to-play politically over city contracts. The most recent process of awarding the fund under the community violence intervention began in the fall of 2024 and resulted in Acclivat and Metropolitan Family Services quitting the award, with both receiving extensions through the end of the year.

Acclivat also butted heads with former Mayor Lori Lightfoot's administration over CV1 funding — a final bid Regan's audit noted. 'There's a bias within the leadership (all) CDPH against Acclivat which dates back to the previous administration, which we also had to recollect to Mayor Lightfoot's administration in the chief of staff Maurice (Clawett)' Regan wrote.

That friction arose because 'We raised concerns that CV1 and Victim Service RFP's were written in a way that excluded qualified holders, including Acclivat,' per Regan. But the would not say whether Acclivat ever applied for street outreach funds under Lightfoot.

Sources who requested anonymity told the Tribune that Acclivat executives approached at least four senior Lightfoot officials to seek city funding, only to be told each time they had to go through competitive funding.

Dowell allegedly told another member of the Lightfoot administration, the thought the group should receive money and requested two other officials meet with Acclivat leaders, sources said.

One source alleged the alderman told Lightfoot herself that Acclivat should get city funding, which the former mayor rebuffed by saying the group must go through the RFP process.

Reached for comment, Dowell said she 'never discussed anything with Lee about this' and only recalls mentioning Acclivat to Susan Lee. Lightfoot's deputy mayor for public safety. 'Have you looked at this group?'

'That was the extent,' Dowell said. 'I always thought they had to go through the RFP process. My focus was on getting the administration to acknowledge that there are groups all across the city that do violence interruption work.'

Record-a-draw Dowell's political campaign has paid Acclivat community and civic engagement director, B趟um (Wadek), from 2023 to 2024 and his political consulting firm, Goshen Impact Services, from 2016 to last November.

He told the Tribune she has hired him as a consultant but denied that was related to her interest in his antivi-

olence group before saying, 'I'm not going to be part of a witch hunt. I don't have any more in me'.

The rest of Ige's February email persons to the group's latest news related to (the mayor's office) was refused to meet with the program team; stressing that in the wake of open records request for violence prevention program documentation, the city must be able to 'back up my reach to get out.'

The next week, she emailed Lee, Paciano-Zane, Gatewood and Camville on Feb. 17 with her most dire warning on 'My recent concern is if we should be consider extending the contract with Acclivat given the ongoing challenges.'

The health department also audited Metropolitan Family Services' antiviolence programming last year. There is no indication that organization's activity harms with the city over its findings.

In her statement to the Tribune, Regan challenged the parameters of the city audit. Novels's statement also mentioned 'the audit has since been closed' and the mayor's office had no involvement in it.

'None of the items listed as no called 'audit findings' actually against an audit being because none represent a failure to meet any standard established by CDPH,' Regan wrote.

'Following a record-aid all between Acclivat and CDPH on March 4th, CDPH ended Acclivat feedback that there were no audit findings, that reframed the discussion following the call as opposed to new additional funding. All documents requested by CDPH were submitted to Acclivat.'

That one-hour call is question given by the city.

During the huddle, medical director Dr. Mark Jenny Hua inspired about an outstanding list of the

group's street outreach and case management workers, which the health department collects from antiviolence grantees in order to evaluate referrals per participant. Regan countered any mismatch was 'no issue created by CDPH' for removing access to its reporting portal and provide appropriate street distribution here to clean up the data.

'But that doesn't change the audit findings that the numbers just don't match, and responded, 'Please show us how you derived those numbers.'

The video recording shows in Regan repeatedly challenging the motions of audit findings as 'very sort of incendiary language,' prompting CDPH Assistant Commissioner John Karamanufa to finally offer at the end. 'We're happy to potentially explore remaining it.'

Lee logged on to the Truma reporting about half way through but did not speak.

Afterward, a department epidemiologist sent an internal email on March 13 expressing apprehension toward Regan's follow-up memo because 'By putting Jason Lee as the first recipient, she's making a statement, so I'm not looking to get involved with that.'

An insatiable Regent that Lee was already included and requested herself and Hua be part of any future correspondence about the audit, which became labeled a 'site visit follow-up'.

In her response to the Tribune, Regan provided an email from a CDPH administrator affirming on July 24 'the data unravels its actions, appears to be correct.' Hua and Karamanufa were not included.

of or commit gun violence. Decades later, neighborhoods across Chicago have a prolific network of hyper-therapy, and even more approved from elected officials.

But like many things in Chicago, the question of watery miners remains a florets undercurrent.

And the organization at the center of the controversy has long standing two to the mirror and other politicians.

In November 2024 — not the city already expected to competitive bidding process for the ambulance contract — Johnson's political fund gave $35,000 to the 2024 according to the campaign finance records. His campaign spokesperson Christian Peirz said in a statement these payments were $1,000,000, and that 'antibody donations' that also included After School Matters and Don's Chicago Dream.

The donations totaled $150,000, the same amount the wages I'd think contributed to Johnson's political fund in 2025. Peirz did not say whether these three expenditures over from the campaign group were that's money after his October 2024 award on murder-far-hire charges.

Regan said the payment 'was not associated with any services and it remains unspent and situated in Acclivat reserves.'

Records show three, the Acclivat CEO, reached out to Johnson himself that fall before the RFP close.

On Nov. 25, 2024, 8mm-tent Ige on email titled 'Violence Prevention' and cc'ed the memo, Obadely, Regan and Black' George chain All Nephanie Coleman, according to Johnson's email logo. None emailed Johnson again on Feb. 6 of last year with the subscriber 'CDPH Payment Methods.'

Obadely, a former deputy in the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services who was convicted of fraud in 2016, also contributed $500 to the mayor's political fund in March 2023 and another $500 this March, but both checks were returned, which Peirz said was open Obadely request.

Obadely said he had intended to donate from his consulting business instead of his personal account. Johnson's campaign paid Obadely's company $97,000 during the 2023 runoff to the 2024 election.

Meanwhile, Regan joined Johnson's delegation to meet Pope Lee XIV at the Vatican the May, which Acclivat said in an Instagram post expression how violence prevention 'is a key priority for the Johnson administration, that aligns with Acclivat.'

Obadely has not been shy about the benefits, either.

'I'm with Riding with Mayor Brandon Johnson, and I don't care who don't like two more big issues,' he wrote July 16, Riding's raised list and heart remain before ending with 'FOD,' an abbreviation for 'Expletive/curbs/law.'

Generations flock to 97th Bud Billiken Parade

By Lila Hempel-Edgers CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Becoming drumlines echoed through Bonneville Saturday as thousands of spectators packed miles of subpools, staking out spots for a glimpse of what organizers call the largest Black parade in the country.

But Corey Tykka stood a few feet behind the crowd, quietly waiting for his daughter's cheerleading troupe to handle by. He had grown up watching the precincts and now, he said, for the first time, his 10-year-old would become part of the tradition herself.

"The parade has always been here for me, and now my daughter's in it," said Tykka, 50. "It shows you how many people are supporting the next generation."

Chicago's 97th annual Bud Billiken Parade, a celebration of Black culture and community, kicked off Saturday morning at the intersection of 39th Street and South King Drive. Nickerson's "The Bud," the parade draws thousands of spectators and generations of families for bands, dance and drill teams marching towards Washington Park.

South Side native and actress Lindsay McCoy served as this year's grand marshal. Over the decades, presidents Barack Obama and Harry Truman have attended, along with entertainers like Oprah Winfrey and Chance the Raptor.

Some of the Saturday's attendees were more familiar than others with the parade's notable visitors. Among them was Lolo, a 10-year-old Hue-and-yellow man on pre-land on Rowson Harrier' shoulder.

"She's met the mayor and the governor," Harrier said, proudly of the lord, a parade regular since she was a baby. "She loves it."

Others have been attending for even longer, returning to the neighborhood year after year no matter how far away they've moved. Pamela Willis drove from Montgaro

ry to join her sister for the festivities, a summer tradition they shared growing up in Bonneville.

While roughly 500 groups participated this year, Willis still misses the Clydesdale horses she remembers, givling at as a kid. But the 69-year-old and the city's commitment to carrying on the celebration is worth

supporting, and returning each year takes her right back to childhood.

"It feels like home," she said.

Clutching a walking race in one hand and a coconut snow cone in the other, her sister agreed. Watching generations of families return each year, said 63-year-old Marie Willis, she gives children a chance to honor those who come before them.

"Some of us made history down here," said the younger Willis sister. "Coming here is about the support that we bring back to our neighborhood."

The parade has returned every summer since 1929, celebrating students as they prepare for a new school year.

This year, it coincided with Illinois' temporary sales tax reduction, which runs Aug. 7 through Aug. 16 and lowers the state sales tax on qualifying clothing, footwear and school supplies from 4.25% to 1.25%, according to the state's website.

On Saturday, school supplies were handed out near the Washington Park finish, along with free haircuts and health checks for adults and children.

But aside from the academic support, the event gave young people a chance to showcase their talent.

"It's really nice for the city to do this for the children," said Demetrix Adams, 48, watching from her wheelchair outside a senior living facility. "Blowjobbers off the streets for a while."

Simone Moore clapped at the Marching Broncos, Rosewood Academy High School's marching band, strode past in thick red jackets and cylindrical caps.

Her charm grew louder as dozens of children in Bowling, Chula followed, stomping to dense ramises of songs from the Harry Potter films.

Local children spend all year preparing for the parade, and Moore, who saw them walk to and from practices in costume from her Bonneville home. She said she hopes her own children might grow to someday by among them.

"This is what community feels like," said Moore, 43. "You see what the South Side of Chicago represents and the love that we have for each other."

Preparing for the parade has kept 12-year-old Kirau Dawson busy this summer, with practices three days a week ramping up to daily rehearsals in the month leading up to Saturday.

It's her fourth year, performing with Geek Skep and Dance Company, a youth dance and tumbling organization.

She said the parade is the highlight of her summer, giving her something to look forward to ahead of starting seventh grade at Walt Disney Magnet School.

But the best part, Dawson said, is the crowd that loses the route.

"It makes me feel like I accomplished something," she said. "Like I worked hard enough for people to cheer me on."

Residents feel blindsided by quantum campus

By Darcel Rockett CHICAGO TRIBUNE

In Steelworkers Park, butterflies and dragonflies fill around native plants and flowers feel bare grown water-high. Public art and community walls stand tall, selling visitors the U.S. Stock South Works left an indelible environmental footprint during the last industrial days.

Now, a trek through the area means looking and listening to construction on the $9 billion Illinois Quantum and 3000 steelworkers Park, a 440-acre development on the oilcraft site that began last fall to reach fearless, adjacent to Steelworkers Park.

At the groundbreaking ceremony, Gov. J.B. Pritzker teased the project as a magnet for jobs and economic investment. California-based ProQuantum agreed to be the campus's anchor tenant and other tech firms, including IBM and those funded by the federal Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), will also establish operations there.

But after months of talking with Southeast Side community and grassroots organizations seeking more transparency, Chicago-based podiatrists and Respac Media co-founders Damon Williams and Daniel Kissinger found another point of view.

"The coalition of governors, private industry and academia behind this project says that it has the capacity to solve unsuitable problems, but we've learned that it also has the potential to displace communities, damage our environment and destroy digital privacy as we know it," Williams said.

Even though Illinois officials like Pritzker are excited about the prospect of the start, becoming a leader in computing technologies, coalitions of residents and activists are pushing back, citing concerns about increased water and electricity, regulation, sound pollution, infrastructure, digital privacy and extra surveillance.

Williams and Kissinger's goal for their multime-

dia investigative feature, "Quantum Entanglements," is to ensure the public has a 360-degree view of the development and the quantum technology behind it.

Although the plans include a hospital, a 128-acre quantum computing facility and office space, there is little clarity about what will ultimately be on the quantum campus, Kissinger said. And while there is a vision for what the campus will be, there isn't yet a full footprint for the city, he added, leaving area residents nervous.

Anne Holcomb, a South Shore resident and self-perclaimed "citizen scientist," said the community was not invited to the ceremony for the quantum campus. "We were never asked what we wanted for that land... We were in the dark and there it's thrown at us. How do you think we're going to feel?" Holcomb said.

The shared fire experience during the 45-minute podcast, in which Williams and Kissinger discuss the quantum campus's origins, potential harms and numerous objections surrounding the site. The podcast highlights the

lack of transparency around the project and the ambiguity surrounding the technology. "That's been the problem the whole time," said Holcomb, a community organizer and co-chair of ETHOS (Environment, Transportation, Health, and Open Space). Based on the South and Southeast sides, the grassroots environmental justice group is leading a push for a community benefits agreement at the site. The right way to do urban planning is to meet with the community very early on, Holcomb said.

Since plans for the quantum campus were announced in the summer of 2024, opinions on the development have been, like the community it will inhabit, diverse Kissinger and Williams point to ETHOS and several other local advocacy groups organizing campaigns, including the Alliance for the Southeast and Southside Together.

Southeast Neighbors for Quantum supports the quantum campus, Southside Together wants to stop it. And while ETHOS does not want to fall the development, Holcomb said, a coalition of advocacy groups is pushing

developers to secure binding agreements on community concerns such as environmental and housing protections, jobs for residents and investments in area schools and parks. Holcomb won the agreement as a harms reduction strategy.

The conflict around the quantum campus is not unique. Much of this tension arises around megadovelopments in general, according to Antonio Lopez, co-director of the Chicago Frontlines Fund, which provides grants to grassroots environmental justice initiatives. Lopez pointed to other city developments, such as Lincoln Yards, the implement of a 100-foot chimney at the former Crawford Power Generating Station in Little Village, and The 76 development near Chinatown. The developing quantum park falls among those.

"It continues that long partners that've happened in the city in a lot of neighborhoods," Lopez said. "There's a lot of old wounds and a lot of distrust. These are very big projects that have a lot of stake, not just for those individuals, but also for those who are who. Chicago's going

to look like in 10 years. Are people going to be able to afford to less here anymore? There's a lot happening right now, and we appreciate the work that Respac is doing to raise awareness and explain complicated things in an accessible way."

Lopez's fund provided a grant for the completion of that "Quantum Entanglement" project.

"After numerous attempts to develop the site with mixed-income housing and other commercial development, the feeling of 'there's something where there has been nothing' is very alluring," Kissinger said. "But what that something actually matters. It has to be 'Is the thing we're bringing in to fill the void going to actually be able to meet our needs?'"

These needs include a community-acccable credit union on the site, as well as public restrooms and water bounties at the adjacent Steelworkers Park.

While the park's amenities aren't as robust as others, it still meets a community need for public space, Kissinger said.

Williams said issues around

quantum technology narrow down to issues of self-determination and displacement.

"The ways in which communities can or cannot shape their environment, respond to harms and hazards in a way that is democratic, or respects the autonomy of people's loved experience," he said. "Bringing in developments that are not in line with the economic here of the community are other ways that displace smart can occur."

"Quantum Entanglements" was released in July after its modified research. The latest work was funded in collaboration with the Alliance Matters campaign, an initiative of Chicago Independent Media Alliance (CIMA) and the Field Foundation. The project is available in print, video and audio (with a listening guide).

"A lot of what's happening now feels very big down for a local people," Lopez said. "We want to demonstrate that. We think it's better if community members in these neighborhoods have a say on the types of development happenings in their local areas."

Since Kissinger and Williams interviewed Holcomb over a year ago for "Quantum Entanglements," ETHOS has held monthly dialogues with developer Related Midwest and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency. ETHOS volunteers monitor the site regularly to ensure the developer is doing the work responsibly.

As work continues, special feesing and street cleaning are measures to mitigate dust and dirt kicked up during construction and remediation, and to prevent soil transferred from truck lines from reaching public roads.

ETHOS has initiated discussions with the developers about housing, parks and education. They have yet to meet about jobs, Holcomb said.

"We're making some headway," Holcomb said. "They are working with us. It takes time and details we would get a signed document, but if the work gets done, the work gets done."

Someone identified as the funeral director initially told the officers that, per his attorney's instructions, he would not allow police back into the business without a warrant, according to the police report. After police told him that a business license check could be performed at any time during business hours, the man locked the doors and left the scene, the report stated.

The report identified the funeral director as Clark Morgan, who previously held a funeral director and ambulance intern license before it was revoked by the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation in 2024, records show.

According to the state agency, the registered funeral director for the business is actually his wife, Johanna Morgan.

TROUBLED PAST

Records available on the IDFPR's website show regulators temporarily suspended Johanna Morgan's funeral director and ambulance intern Wednesday. Johanna Morgan allowed multiple bodies to be "kept in an uninfringement area with day-to-day conditions including rodent infestation, causing decomposition and maggot infestation," according to IDFPR records.

Interests for the Morgan did not respond to requests for comment.

No one answered the door at the Morgan' south-west suburban home Friday morning.

In 2021, a ceremony in south suburban Chicago Heights owned by Clark Morgan was shut down by state officials after the remains of more than 100 bodies were found improperly stored.

"There were bodies sort of stacking up at this cemetery," said Alden Palisack, formerly a spokesman for the comptroller's office, last year.

More than two dozen lawsuits have been filed against Wright's Cemetery and the Morgan since state regulators closed the facility last year.

Families and businesses contacted by the Tribune were shocked to learn of the South Chicago Chapel owners' history.

Late Thursday, two black cars from Indiana-based Emmanuel Funeral Home & Cremation Services approached the police tape to pick up a family's break one. Christopher Jennings, a pastor with the home, said they wished all day for their calls to be returned.

"We kept calling we kept calling," he said. "No answer."

services that we would like for the family because we're stuck trying to get in contact with the funeral home," Jennings said.

Jennings, who's been with Emmanuel Funeral for two years, said it's important to ensure death care is conducted correctly, for the safety of their staff and for the dignity and respect of families.

"It's kind of devastating because we don't know what's going on," Jennings said.

"I do want to point out that the bad actor here is the funeral home, and that they've done something just horrific," Pritzker said. "And we've got to make sure and hold them responsible, and of course look at all the processes he licensing."

BROKEN PROMISE

On Thursday night, Decease Wright rushed to the chapel. She pushed and outside a strip of police tape blocking off the funeral home, and jumped out of the driver's seat. Her mother's funeral was held at the building three weeks ago, on July 18. Wright had been patiently waiting for an update from the director, who promised to deliver her mother's saliva within three weeks.

But when Wright heard the news that dozens of decomposing bodies were found in the building, kept without refrigeration in a basement, storage containers and doors, she headed straight to the site.

Searching for answers who could give her any piece of information, Wright walked around the scene until she spotted two officers. She called out to them, asking if they had any knowledge about victims.

She gave an officer her mom's name. The officer directed Wright to the medical examiner's office. Wright thanked the officer and walked away. Her brother leaving the scene, Wright passed outside the funeral home.

Something in her was telling her that her mom was among those inside.

The next day, she called Planet Green Cremations, a business she said she was told was connected to South Chicago Chapel. A woman she believes was Johanna Morgan picked up.

"I said hello, she said hello. I was like, I was calling to check on my mom's status," Wright told the Tribune. "She asked me my mom's name and she hung up on me once I gave it to her."

State business records show Johanna Morgan as an officer of the business, which advertises on its website: "We realize that Murray is for the living and we keep our prices low in order to help the families we serve."

An attorney for Planet Green Cremations didn't immediately respond to a phone call requesting comment Friday.

"I'm just buying and paying the cart's a victim," Wright said. "She don't deserve to be sitting in a basement."

'THIS IS PAIN'

Keith Young's funeral was scheduled for Friday.

Instead, his family stood outside of the medical examiner's office hand in hand and prayed for answers.

"It's unimaginable," pastor Verna Vaughn said steps away from the Near West Side offices late Friday morning, where remains were still coming in from South Chicago Chapel. Two dozen of Keith's loved ones had the around Vaughn in a circle. His services should have started already.

"This is pain, this is hurt, this is disaster," Vaughn prunches close voice.

Over Vaughn's words, one family member joined the pleas. "Hallelujah!" she called out, still clutching her loved ones "hands-on either side of her. She cried."

Loved ones had planned to retrieve, Keith's body Thursday afternoon. His visitation was scheduled from 4 to 6 p.m.

at a church in Garfield Park, in 3:30 p.m., Keith's older sister Angela Young heard from, after family that her brother's remains hadn't yet arrived at the church.

By 7:10 p.m. that night, as the roads outside South Chicago Chapel remained closed and police continued to monitor the scene, Keith's family had briefly exchanged messages between the funeral home, they recalled. They were told, loved ones said, that what was going on didn't involve the business. They thought they would still be able to lay Keith to rest come Friday.

"I thought we was gonna ... say our goodfires for the last time," Angela, 51, said. "When we got his body back, we might not even recognize who he is."

Angela said her brother, who died July 26, loved his family and would do anything for anybody.

"I think people would have loved to just sit and talk to him," she said.

In the wake of her brother's death, Angela said she and their other five siblings had come together to pay for Keith's services.

"(We) exhausted everything that they had," Angela said. "I mean, just everything is given now. We don't have to move money to pay anybody to come and get his body."

On the landing page of South Chicago Chapel's website, the funeral home boasts in bold type. "Our prices are here to help fame

lies, not hurt them."

Angela said she and her family are looking for answers.

"Nobody's answering questions," she said. "We just got that nobody else has to go through this, and I pray these people are held accountable for what they did."

Just after noon, Keith's niece, Dela Young, walked into the medical examiner's office to see if someone could stop outside to speak with her family, who waited doing the sidewalk. Staff told the 28-year-old they'd try to find someone.

A half hour later, two people from the county office briefly addressed the family. The investigation was

ongoing and bodies were still being transported, the staff members related. They asked for the family's contact information and said their office would reach out.

Late Friday, the medical examiner's office announced that it would be handling cremation services at no cost to families, should they choose that option. The office also stated that families would have the opportunity to work with a funeral home of their choice to make final arrangements.

Dela said her uncle was funny and always made people laugh. Because people, he built, she said. She'd made the obituary for her uncle's

funeral. The small booklet was filled with family pictures. The last page was lead with poems primarily his siblings.

"If I love a few years since Dela had lost men her uncle in person. But she talked to him on the phone a couple of months ago—they spent time just catching up."

"This would have been my last time to be able to see him," Dela said, her voice shaking. "But now, that's taken from me."

OAK PARK

'Master artist' steps away from youth program

By Cam'von Hardy PIONEER PRESS

Art has always been a part of Carolyn Elaine's life. Her and her name once ran a full-service salon where she did nails, and she used to paint clothes during her collegiate days.

For years, she's spent numerous leading Oak Park's Off the Wall art employment program where young adults become apprentices to Elaine, the program's "master artist" according to her title and to those in Oak Park who have worked with her.

After 21 years of leading the Off the Wall program and helping more than 400 of the young creatives, Elaine, 64, has decided to stop away from the program after installing the students' final mural.

"My spirit has been telling me it's time to pull back and move on – 21 years is a long time," she said. "I've gotten a lot out of the program. And of course, I have gone a lot."

This summer, Off the Wall artists worked on a mosaic mural on a building at 6209 North Ave. in Oak Park for what is set to be the home of Beyond Hunger, a relief program for those experiencing food distress.

The mosaic artwork, titled "Gathering Together" is a five-panel depiction of the process of how food ends up at the dinner table. As a teacher, Elaine said she was proud of the students' work. "They're phenomenal, they do phenomenal work," she said.

For eight to 10 weeks, artists aged 19-22 spend time with Elaine to enhance their skills and confidence.

Elaine has taken this role since the program's opening in 2005.

She taught those in the program the methods of mosaic application all the way through completing a public arts mural, something she said they don't have much familiarity with. But

after she shows them ways of how to work in the medium, she takes a step back and lets the art come to life.

"Once they learn how to use the tools, I just kind of step back and let them work their magic," Elaine said. "A lot of them, they just blow my mind with what they do with a new medium."

Each summer, people that have come through her program have done mosaic installations, a medium she's most comfortable with.

After a study about log in Portugal over 20 years ago, Elaine developed a different appreciation for art.

"I decided to go back to school and get a second degree and while I was

there we toured different studies because at that time, they were preparing for the World's Fair," she said. "I was introduced to mosaic, something I wasn't familiar with at all, but I just felt in love with it, just by seeing it."

When she got back home to the Mates, she volunteered in a mosaic project where her passion for the medium flourished. Elaine said the instructor of the program recognized that she had a gift, one she hadn't picked up on herself.

"The minute I picked up those tools and she instructed me on how to do it, it just felt natural," Elaine said.

Mosaic art has led Elaine and her pieces to travel the globe. She's currently working on a project that is set to be installed in November in Sierra Leone.

Now that the time has come for her to venture into new areas in the art world,

she still wants others to recognize and appreciate the mural her students have put into making Oak Park a more colorful place, and the medium overall.

"The brokenness of it to me is just beauty," she said. "Sometimes I'm not as focused on the pieces, but the cracks in between the pieces are just as beautiful. It's almost like making something out of nothing. Of course that's what art is, but to me it just represents life. It's like pulling people together, pulling pieces together, pulling communities together, to whether I'm working with broken pieces, broken communities, broken people, there's beauty in it."

Committee tables retail plan for old resort site

By Molly Morrow AUMOR DEACON NEWS

A developer's plans for the former Pleasant River Resort site in St. Charles and age, hoping to provide discussion among the City Council, North property's future remains undecided.

On Monday, the City Council's first meeting, Committee of the Whole considered—but ultimately tabled—a recommendation to approve a planned plan development, or PUD and preliminary plan for the underrearment of the site, to be called The Shops at Pleasant River.

Included as the preliminary plans for the development on things like a Chain Bank, Valvoline Oil Change and Dutch Bree Coffee, according to documents from the city.

Located near the city's eastern edge at East Main Street and Keats Road, the site is the remaining 317 acres of that used to be the property of the City Council. The City Council's first day of the day, the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of the district of

In 2023, a few arguable large sections of the resort in flames among expelled, including the main features of the resort, were destroyed by the last seven were able to save the 10-story tower on the property.

The remaining resort buildings were eventually demolished, but discussions about redeveloping the property here have going on the year. The city's new building was moved property have been refilled over the years, but the dealerships and an industrial path.

This would be the last portion of the property to be used in the city.

In an effort to develop the remaining property, the year, a concept plan was submitted to the city by Mr. John McCormick, the property owner entity of Chicago-based developer Vespin's proposed a project that would include things like tents, a tank, restaurants and a detours. The property is currently owned by business, per the city.

But while the council has been generally supportive of development on the site, some of the specifications of the proposed project have generated, justified, from the council, on matters like the number of drive-thrus and the number of cars, which would bring located there.

The pitch was discussed by the City Council in December, and again on the project, the city's new building is Monday's Committee of the Whole meeting.

Vespin and SC Landmark pitch is for the only to be included, part 2 is the for commercial purposes.

according to a memo included in Monday's Committee of the Whole meeting agenda. Some of those lots already have planned users, including Chase Bank, a Valvoline oil change facility and the State Area Coffee, all of which would include drive-thrus. Three of the other lots are set to be used to treat health care, including one potential drive-thrus.

The remaining eight lots have not yet been settled on, and their development would require future use of approval of the preliminary plans, according to the city's plans.

According to Russell Colby, the city's director of community development, the city's current system allows for uses like banks, retail spaces, restaurants, car, walker and gas stations, but drive-thrus require special use approval process. The request from the developer and property owner maintains the existing system, but a possible PUD would allow some additional use.

The proposed redevelopment plan includes a request that drive-thrus be provided on all of the lots, per the city, as well as allow for possible uses like a pot can facility, car dealership and truck stop.

The city's Plan Consists not previously voted it is to favor of the preliminary plans, according to Colby's decision conditions—like requiring one of the lots to go through special use approval if it isn't developed as a car dealership, and requiring the traffic study for the project to be updated if there are more

than eight drive-thrus. The commission also directed the application to work with and to address things like pedestrian walkability.

And, while not part of the approval contemplated on Monday, the developer is also seeking at least $3.5 million in financial assistance from the city to help with "extravitationally" site costs. Co-Pay and Affirmative meeting. The property is within the Pleasant Run TIP District, and the city has anticipated that the condition of the site would mean redeveloping it would require TP support, according to Colby.

A TIP district is a sort of economic development in order to which the value of a property is essentially frozen, and the extra of "recreational" taxes created by developing the property go into a special fund used to pay for costs related to improving the area.

The total estimated cost of the project is upwards of $70 million, Colby said, and the property is expected to generate $10 million in TP, the council's plan.

But, Colby noted, if the city opts to restrict how the land is used by prohibiting a car wash from working up there, the developer plans to ask for an additional $1.5 million in TP funds. The rationale, per the city memo, is that design is would "obviate a currently permitted use, reduce the value and economic viability of the project, and require additional assistance."

Should a TIP agreement be reached, a pay-as-you-go

structure would be set up, meaning the city would not favor project costs or uses able to fund the incentive. Rather, new incremental revenue generated from the project would go to the developer's plan for indirect operation.

At Monday's meeting, representatives for the developer and property owner addressed some compensation of the proposed plans as well as those from the city to the council.

Peter Bacon, an attorney representing SC Landmark said that the petitioner is not asking for use beyond those already presented, and should an special uses in the property's current zoning. He also pointed out that the development is not next to use residential areas, and said that—though no car washes have been settled on yet—potential car wash would be located on the lots closer than the location. He also noted a truck stop could potentially go to the spot where the proposed car dealership would be the dealership doesn't happen.

Noting that they "recognize the significant history of this former resort site," Christopher Hicks, owner and founder of Vespin's pointed to some of what the proposed project could bring to the site—it to 12 o'clock rates, as often they and other retail for example. The plans also include: sidewalk (and internal path), a park, and some gathering spaces and meeting areas.

Hicks said he knows there's been "a lot of take in our car washers and other steps," but indicated that

they're not proceeding with a truck stop at this point, nor do they have a commitment from the city.

"We want to see the same users that you guys (de) folks said.

In addition to some research positions at Monday's Committee of the Whole and City Council meetings, members of the council also outlined some of their concerns about the proposed project—as well as approval and a support for approval of the project.

Several council members expressed appreciation for the application's attempts to create a state walkability in the project, as well as indicated their overall support for development on the site. But other matters—like the number of drive-thrus and uncertainty about what businesses will set up about the location—prospect some criticisms of the project.

All Ron Silkarts, for example, said he didn't support "unlimited drive-thrus" on the property but said he supported the car dealership site.

Silkarts was also critic of the ask for additional TP incentive money if the city doesn't special use on the site, which did, David Parry's due to ask some more with.

All Bryan Wichall said he wasn't supportive of the overall on the site, nor with a limited drive-thrus, and said he'd want the council to review these on the development uses for them. He noted that a lot of the plans to diversify the market, and said he didn't take some with

drive-thrus, but wanted to know what businesses would be setting up shops at the site.

All Mark Foulkes, similarly, said he "understandably is working as going to go to" or "see property, but said he "strongly is with this unknown, given that it's not yet useful what all of the lots on the city will be."

Aurora, Carl Ross, concerning that there's "momentous" for development on the east side of the city, pointing to projects like Fox Haven's Sign and the city's new drive-thrus would affect the walkability of the area, and required a review many drive-thrus would be feasible.

Additionably, several council members also spoke of the development as part of the system's privacy to the city, including their share to think by about what the site would be.

All Vicki Spellman, for example, expressed an interest in the system's privacy to the city being "special" and "strongly" in the city, as against drive-thrus as some other members of the council.

While All Ryan Stargard said he was able to execute from residents that "we continue to build, you know, the same thing down the same street," and asked for the new doorway would be different.

All James Bacon likewise said the area needs to be redeveloped, but said the city's new use that would be a "use" that actually draws the city's new community for some special purpose.

"Our system's privacy should be distinct, unique and different from our system," said the city's owner, Marena and at the meeting. "This would not bring us that. This would bring us just about my telephone number and phone account here."

Wichall ultimately made a motion to recommend for approval the plans, under the conditions that only the three of the three of the businesses already identified in the current plans be approved, with allowance for two additional drive-thrus for restaurants as they're voted by city staff. The proposal that one additional drive-thrus require a special use approval, and/or car washers for the city.

From there: All Steve McCormick stated that the developer could indicate that they wanted to table the matter if they needed more times to consider that the project would be official ultimately opted to take a reasonable time of the proposal for two weeks.

Ex response seeks dismissal of new decade-long case

By Alexandra Kukutka PUD/Tribune

Former Portage Mayor James Snyder orders federal appeals court to dismiss his case amending from his inventory 2020 and entered which included a charge of attorney for IRS.

In the 10-page motion for dismissal that was filed Monday at the U.S. Tax Circuit Court of Appeals, Snyder's attorneys applied three reasons for dismissing the case—dipping the district court made a mistake incorporating his acquisition the tax charge, that the act, one of limitations should not be involving, with the IRS charge, the tax charge, and the Court's revenues of fair before conviction, followed by your seizure dismissing the court, should also make the conviction on the IRS charge.

aggravating factors in the case that caused it to happen here it happened," Hángay said. These factors were that Snyder was an elected official and her diet as scheme lasted multiple years, he said.

The government admitted imposing a failed business owner on a tax theory because he later was elected to be a public office. The rest of the committee's decision it was extraordinary, according to the court document.

The district court also failed to follow the six year statute of limitations on the count for interfering with the IRS laws. Snyder's attorneys argued Hángay's testimony at his entree being said, "I am not a legal service center presented by prosecutors and that state's—limitations began when the alleged crime occurred, the motion stated."

Finally, given that the Supreme Court's director, James Snyder, had been and probably have different definitions under the law, that rules should, in turn, dismiss the interfering with the IRS charge.

Prosecution argued that between January 2000 and April 2015 Snyder executed a scheme to obstruct the IRS's income tax and the state's business and personal taxes.

Snyder's company First Financial Trust Mortgage LLC in 2005, 2008 and 2009 Snyder didn't pay the

IRS employee's payroll and income taxes. Medicare and Social Security's share from employees' paychecks Snyder also didn't fill 1285 terms in a timely manner, prosecutors said.

The committee's 2009, the IRS discovered that the company used approximately $9,000, prosecutors said, while Snyder just himself appreciated, 2010, and 2009, the company bank account.

In January 2005, Snyder signed an employment agreement with a mortgage company called OVC and opened a "brash-bollar" out of the First Financial Trust Mortgage LLC office. Under the agreement, OVC hired Snyder to provide a valid land and paid all his employees, prosecutors said.

In 2005, Snyder began creating "phony (revisory)" from the company called DRC to bill First Financial Trust Mortgage LLC, and "shocking" work, prosecutors said. First and DRC were $800,000 in 2005, 2010 and 2012, and DRC received a liquid-avoiding contract with the state's income from the government. On his personal taxes, Snyder would be $8,532,500 for tax years 2005, 2006 and 2007, and $8,000 for 2010, 2010 under penalty of perjury. Snyder stated his personal tax debt was an unlikable and limited, effect of pay $1,000, prosecutors said.

Aldermen aim to regulate not ban, 'sweepstakes' machines

By Claire Murphy PIONEER PRESS

For months, debate over the controversial proliferation of 'sweepstakes' machines in Evanston has divided aldermen as to whether or not the gambling life limits should be allowed to remain and be regulated or be banned entirely.

While many neighboring municipalities have banned them, the City Council at its July 27 meeting decided the allowing and regulating them is shorter but

Video gambling has been banned within the city's September 2009. However, officials in other municipalities view these so-called sweepstakes machines as operating under a legal give an evolution to state gambling laws.

Sweepstakes machines work by having players convert their cash into gift cards or credits they can later use as game entries, which circumvents Illinois law by not

necessitating a direct purchase to enter.

However, the machines often require payment, which is only many officials say they remain skeptical of their legality.

In Evanston, many small business and gas stations owners have said they often rely on profits from the machines.

Profits are split between the company that leases them and the business owner responsible for operating the books, per previous reports.

'People picture this as being a gambling prefer or something along those lines, and that's not what this situation is,' said Ald. Matt Rodgers, 8th, whose word represents the majority of businesses in Evanston that operate these types of machines.

'If this council decides to vote this down, I hope somebody's coming with something for those people, because we just keep taking away their

livelihoods. We keep taking money out of their pockets and making it so that they can't do business harm.'

Rodgers' comments referenced the flattered tobacco product ban that went into effect in the city in April 2024.

The decision to ban these products has caused financial drain for many small business owners in the ward, Rodgers said, adding a ban on sweepstakes machines would do more of the same.

'Even to all about economic development and doing things to support our businesses, I guess gas stations and convenience stores aren't part of the one,' Rodgers said.

Several current black operators in the city attended the July 27 council meeting to speak to favor of regulation over a complete ban, stating law also the right to hear the final verdict.

'I think licensing something that's unequaled by any other entity is probably not a

great practice,' said Ald. Tom Suffredin, 6th.

'(But) we're here at 10:40 (p.m.), basically holding their business's future in our hands . . . so I would respectfully suggest that we not vote to ban these enough, and come back with a well-thought out top of the agenda plan for how we will allow them.'

If not, Suffredin added, let's vote in the future, the left's do it (fig. 6), rather than doing it to those people at this time of right right now.

According to Evanston Health & Human Services Director Ike Ogbe, about 10

sweepstakes kiosks are in active use within the city's special action 'these to four establishments'.

Regulations would impose an annual licensing fee of $500 for business owners to operate the kiosks and limit the number of machines to operate in 10 or a given time and no more than two per establishment, according to the ordinance.

Most of the establishments that host the machines now have more than two, Ogbe said.

Ald. Clare Kelly, 2st, said that while she isn't looking to 'undermine existing

businesses and revenue that they've been relying on,' the proliferation of sweepstakes kiosks remains a heavy concern.

Kelly said she would be most comfortable attending the regulation ordinance by adding in a clause that could 'get millions' in the existing ones and ban them going forward.

'Regulation (offers them a path forward,' said Ald. Juan Lencicara, 9th, speaking over Zoom.

'This vote is introduction, which we next meeting is not until almost a month from now, so we do have time if we want to add things to the regulation.'

Ultimately, council members moved to advance regulating the machines in a unanimous vote following a discussion of changes to the current ordinance.

These aldermen — Kristin Harris, 2nd, Sharon Iles, 3rd, and Jonathan Nannema, 4th — voted in favor of the ordinance, insisting them outright earlier in the meeting.

A final decision on regulating sweepstakes machines is expected back on the agenda at the next City Council meeting, scheduled for Aug. 24.

NAPERVILLE

No D203 committee assignments for Kelley Black for 2nd year

By Michelle Mullins FOR THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE

A years-long spot over school board member Melissa Kelley Black (without to review Naperville District 203's bills and claims researched last week when she was again denied committee assignments for failing to do the monthly oversight task.

Kelley Black has repeatedly criticized the district's process in which board members take a new reviewing the monthly bills with finance staff before they are presented and voted on during a public meeting.

On Monday, the district released its annual rotation for the upcoming school year in which the seven board members are assigned a month for the bill review process. The annual

committee and adopt a school assignment were also released — late from which Kelley Black was excluded.

This is the second school year Kelley Black was not given any assignment, but she remains in the rotation to review the bills with finance staff.

Committees are made up of community members to provide guidance, recommendations and feedback to the superintendent and staff, but they do not have any formal decision-making authority. Board members at a minimum

Kelley Black said the disagree with the bills and claims review process, which requires the board member to examine a list of expenditures and certify they are valid.

'I will not put my name on the line when I don't have

enough information,' Kelley Black said.

He has criticized accounting practices and said information has been lacking and not provided to her when requested.

During Monday's board meeting, she expressed frustration that she was assigned to review the bills and claims even though she objects to the process, she said she feels targeted.

'You apparently capable of making fiduciary decisions regarding millions and millions of dollars, but I can't walk through a school and do a school visit,' Kelley Black said.

Board President Charles Cush said board policy states all board members are expected to participate in the bills and claims review process as part of their fiduciary

responsibility. The board has received advice from both its law firm and auditing firm that the process is sound, he said.

Cush said the process allows the board members to review the district's check book and ask questions of district's staff. The policy has been agreed upon by the school board members.

'If I were on my job and I said to my colleagues, 'You know what I don't want to do that. Make someone else do it,' that wouldn't go over well in a professional situation,' Cush said.

During the board exchange, Cush and Kelley Black was not given committee and school assignments because she has shirled duties required by board policy.

'You as an elected official

are entitled to the seat that you are in. You are entitled to vote on matters before the board, and you can go into the community and ask questions as many times as you want,' Cush said. 'You are not assigned the responsibilities that are optional responsibilities because you're refused to do the required responsibilities.'

Board members have publicly rebuked Kelley Black's refusal to provide oversight in the bills and claims process for nearly two years.

The board has provided a letter from its law firm that states the board members' roles when reviewing the bills is not to make sure that all bills are paid and that all claims are processed correctly, but rather to make sure that the administration is complying with these procedures.

The board's role is governance and supervisory. District officials are responsible for budget planning and implementation and for monthly financial reports, according to the letter dated Feb. 1, 2025, from the law firm Robbins Schwartz.

'I believe that an individual board member's role is to personally sign off offering that all the processing of the district's bills and claims is correct (or lack) a fundamental understanding of board governance,' the letter said.

'Clearly, the proper processing of bills and claims is the responsibility of the administration.'

DEAN KOLENKOVNYEN 1935-2026

Former mayor of Palos Heights led with courage, commitment

By Bob Goldsborough FOOTING CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Dean Koldenhovnyen was southwestern in Palos Heights' mayor during a time when other city leaders tried to throw up roadblocks to prevent a mosque flood during a church campaign offering the mosque $200,000 to drop its plans to lose the property.

Koldenhovnyen, battled a disarmament, was also opposed the mosque's plans and his ultimately retired from $200,000 offer. For speaking out on the issue, Koldenhovnyen's own and the 1940s, F Kennedy Profile on Courage Award in 2002.

Koldenhovnyen also served as councillor of the city's planning and zoning commission for eight years.

"Dean was very committed to the city of Palos Heights, and the city meant a lot to him," said former Palos Heights Mayor Brenda Struck. "He was involved in not only the city government but also was involved in schools and his neighborhood in general. So he was always active in the community."

Koldenhovnyen, 91, died of complaints from dementia on July 18 at his home, said his son, Dean Koldenhovnyen II. He had been a Palos Heights resident since 1971.

Born at his parents' home in the South Side Engineering neighborhood in 1935, Koldenhovnyen grew up in Englewood until his teen years, when he moved with his family to Alley. After graduating from Chicago Christian High School in Palos Heights in 1943, Koldenhovnyen began working as a bricklayer.

In 1947, Koldenhovnyen started his own bricklaying firm, Koldenhovnyen Construction School in a house and ran for 43 years apart from a brief period in 1949 when he moved his family to scott, stalls, Arizona. He returned to Palos Heights for the following year and resumed bricklaying work until retiring in 1999. After that, he sold back to President David Tin State, Cal State & Rock Co. another 10 years, until retiring for good around age 80.

"Taking an interest in community affairs, Koldenhovnyen began serving on the city's planning and zoning commission in 1959. Then, casting himself as an accomplished parliamentarian attempting to smooth the rocky stateroom that had predated his time on the City Council, Koldenhovnyen in 1967 ran for and won elections as Palos Heights' mayor. In the role, he resurrected plans

for Palos Heights' very own $5.9 million Metro commuter station, at the corner of 1845 Street and Southwest Highways.

"This is a historic moment," Koldenhovnyen said at the station's groundbreaking ceremony in November 2000. "It's the culmination of one of work, and it's been long awaited."

Koldenhovnyen also presided over the 1994 anniversary of the 101-acre Mosque Valley Country Club, which was redeveloped into an upscale residential development, and the 2000 completion of a new police station.

The defining event of Koldenhovnyen's time as mayor occurred in 2000, when a Southwest Side Machine group, the Al-Salam Mosque Foundation, sought to pay $2.1 million to buy a church at 6000 W. 1,750 ft. in Palos Heights and use it as a mosque and a school, from Palos Heights residents who made the possibility of a mosque in their community, and the outcry sparked an offer for some City Council members to find a way to persuade Al-Salam officials to probe when.

Some aldermen came up with a plan for the city to buy the church building to provide recreation facilities to the city, even though city officials just two years earlier had rejected the idea of buying the building, citing its insufficient size. The City Council then voted to offer Al-Salam $200,000 to walk away from purchasing the church building so the city could buy it.

A vocal backer of mosque leaders, Koldenhovnyen strenuously objected to his colleagues' offer, saying that "it's degrading, numbing even to ask." He also told the Tribune that he felt the opposition to the Muslim foundation buying the church site was based on racial and religious discrimination. Koldenhovnyen's colleagues,

however, contended that those offer was based solely on the city's need for recreation space. Koldenhovnyen sought to smooth things over, attempting to distance city leadership from the opposition to the mosque.

"I'm trying to keep us out of the courts," he told the Tribune in 2000. "I'm trying to be fair to the Islamic people. This is a real estate transaction, and we have no business in it."

In July 2000, Koldenhovnyen decided to veto aldermen's $200,000 offer, saying that "government has no place in this purchase." He added that if mosque members, some there's wanted to back out of their contract to buy the building. "A cap in them," but that he had hoped that the mosque would proceed with the purchase.

Al-Salam ultimately decided not to move to Palos Heights, and the building today is occupied by another church. In 2000, Al-Salam and Palos Heights and Koldenhovnyen in federal court, shaping a residence of Muslims' right to freedom of religion. However, a federal jury held in 2000 that the group's rights were not violated.

In March 2002, the Kennedy Library Foundation in Boston named Koldenhovnyen a recipient of the John F Kennedy Profile in Courage Award for her political essay as "a spelling-out against those who opposed Al-Salam's efforts to convert the church into a mosque."

"It's surreal. I'm over-whishead at receiving such a home," Koldenhovnyen told the Tribune in 2002.

Koldenhovnyen ran for reelection in 2001 but lost. The Tribune reported at the time that some aldermen are residents said they thought the mosque controversy was the reason for Koldenhovnyen's loss.

A state of work and community involvement, Koldenhovnyen enjoyed collecting, running around garage sales, and disfiguring with others on his daily trips to Starbucks, his son said.

"He was a people guy," his son said.

In addition to his son, Koldenhovnyen is survived by his wife of 75 years, Ruth, two daughters, Linda Riley and Sharon Vallas, nine grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren, and a sister, Elaine Reynolds.

Services were held. Bob Goldsborough is a fresherer reporter.

What happened to our collective reverence for death?

Few things are as shocking to living people as corporate champions in the summer hour.

But that is what apparently occurred inside a funeral home on the city's Southeast Side when more than 50 human bodies were discovered inside the South Chicago Chapel funeral home in the 2000 block of East 95th Street, following complaints from neighbors about a strong odor. That particular funeral home had sold itself as being "home's guide families throughout of life's most difficult moments with compassion, dignity, and care."

The investigation has only just begun, but it would appear that the times I promise were hollow. To say the very least:

We offer our confidence as to the bereaved Chicago families for whom the must have been unspeakably operating more.

Funeral homes are subject to state regulation for numerous good reasons, one of which is that the customers thereof, the families of Chicagoans who die, are not as a producer is know what subsequently happens to their loved ones' bodies. People pay their money to funeral directors — often with considerable hardship, especially in how income weights should — and then trust that respect for their wishes will guide whatever happens next. Families want their beloved to rest in peace.

The first time is the first instance of the first pool of that trust.

In 2025, investigators discovered 125 bodies inside a Colorado funeral home called Return to Nature, which allegedly had not sent the bodies to a crematorium or families had been promised but had pocketed the money and seemingly sent those families' fate ashes derived from concrete. There are numerous other examples from both near and far.

In the case of what happened in Chicago Thursday, it appears that the president of the funeral home, Clark S. Morgan, had a personal note on who the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation, which had hired him $10,000 in 2024 for practicing elsewhere in the state with an expired funeral director license and unspecified "unprofessional conduct."

State-Communist and mayoral condition trauma Montana said that Clark Morgan and Johnson Morgan also had run a crease very in worth suburban Chicago Heights. That facility, she said, lost its license last year after the discovery of improperly stored

SCOTT STANTIS/CHICAGO TRIBUNE

bodies and hundreds of cremated remains that weren't given to families. If true, the Morgan appear to be repeat offenders. And it raises questions about why they were allowed to continue operating on the Southeast Side.

Mendoza called what was discovered Thursday at the South Chicago funeral home "heart-breaking and an abomination." She is right on both counts.

This incident will, of course, need to be thoroughly investigated and one of the focuses of that investigation should be on how Morgan was allowed to get back to business seemingly with sufficiently little state oversight that investigators only made this discovery after being alerted by neighbors.

What they found there would suggest much more frequent checks should have been made. As a minimum.

The issue of the home follows hard upon the joint investigation of conditions at the Asher Treatment Center conducted by the Marshall Project, WREF, and the Chicago Sun-Times. That reporting into what claimed to be a better kind of prison, more focused on treating inmates with mental-health issues, concluded that the conditions at the center were appalling, resulting in fires being set by inmates on their own

persons. The report also alleged that the foundational promise of the Asher Treatment Center — available treatment for the mentally troubled — had gone largely unfulfilled.

Read that report and you wonder where were the inspectors from the Illinois Department of Correction, just as you wonder about the presence, or the lack thereof, of the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation at the bodies piled up in the funeral home.

These regulatory state entities are crucial safety nets. The first thing is the mission statement of the DEPR is to "protect Illinoisans," and even if the incident at South Chicago Chapel has yet to be fully investigated, it hardly seems premature to say that it appears the families of those deceased folks were not protected. Indeed, the incident traumatized families for beyond those attached to the bodies in the home. Many others at this and other State-Illinois in the state inevitably start to wonder whether or not their wishes were carried out as they instructed. It is, as we noted above, very difficult to know.

It is axiomatic of funeral homes that they really take care of the living even if it appears

they take care of the dead. But the second long-term first:

We know, from personal experience, of this state's many homes—the funeral directors who see this as a sacred mission and will simply interest this state upon their profession, just as we know that will be true among many who work for the DEPR.

But there is one gloating over the epic failure that happened here and its impact on Chicagoans as one of the most vulnerable times of their lives. Steps should be taken by the governor to ensure that this does not happen again and where it's Illinois.

We have one last point to make here. We've noted, in political and other circles, a dismaldance of respect for the deceased, an inability to keep of discharged life from the dead, or to aิตестent's family, those who loved a person as a person, not as a public figure with a point of view.

Throughout human history, we rituals surrounding the end of human life have abided as societies that have little else in common have understood that a dignified death is not only what we all deserve but a crucial part of what helps the living recover.

That did not happen at the South Chicago Chapel funeral home, and the horror there should galvanize us all.

Mayor can't find anyone willing to collect debt on city's behalf

Mayor Brandon Johnson's administration has informed sideman that a proposed sale of outstanding debts owed to families is not fair, so which was supposed to not $90 million in the year's budget, is grieving no interest from banks or other financial services firms.

The apparent failure of the debt sale looks like it will blow a hole in the current year's budget that will need to be addressed, although the size of that shortfall is not to be determined.

We certainly agree with members of the council to give it why included the debt sale among other revenue raising measures that the mayor and his administration gave their decision re732, until 1974.

From the start, Johnson can't get a like plan to sell some of the $8 billion owed to the city in unpaid and balance charges, some that, too tight and also the camera tickets and other obligations as "stomach" and "nourish bankrupt." This page rejected his argument, saying among other sources, "I think that the people who pay their debts to give it out pass to those who just don't. Johnson allowed the budget containing the proposed

debt law to become law without his reputation.

He then went on a barometering session in various wards throughout the first quarter in which he and his finance team warned that the debt sale, among other of the council majority's novel revenue raising options, was unlikely to exceed and that the budget would be short by the middle of the year.

So is it even slightly surprising, the city can find no one interested in trying to collect this debt, a least given the way Team Johnson has conducted the process and the mayor's messaging? Among the reasons potential builders gave for taking a public were "reputation of concerns of potential buyers" and "honor policy or legislative decisions," according to a recent memo city

Comptroller Michael Boleky answers the council.

Well, Yeah. When you have a mayor's willing business city's plan, that surely will take a reason a "concexe" about the effect on their reputation.

Johnson took a preliminary victory log of sorts in July, meaning that he'd said from the start the debt sale was a bad idea. The crusader team then flowed: "I didn't want to be right about this situation," he said.

This would be easier to stomach if Johnson hadn't leaned heavily on nuisance fees and fines in past budgets. About $1 billion is equal debts was added in less than two years during Johnson's term as of December 2007, according to the Chicago Sun Times.

The job of the executive branch, whether at the national or local level, is to enforce and exercise the laws of the legislative branch.

We don't know how difficult this debt-collection plan would have been to one can under an administrative committee to enforceing all laws, even once it doesn't file. But we aren't know it had no chance under this City Hall.

OPINION

Taxpayers can end up funding gun violence. Chicago is trying to stop it

SPECIAL TO THE TRIBUNE

The No.1 purchaser of firearms in this country is the American people.

And these, cities and states across the country spend more than $3 billion purchasing firearms for law enforcement. Too often, this means taxpayer dollars are finding the very gun violence that plagues neighbor bonds and communities nationwide.

Public dollars should advance public safety, not undermine it. Full stop.

As the largest institutional purchaser of firearms in the United States, governments have tremendous power to shape the market. When governments deny align practices with commitments, everyday taxpayers end up funding gun violence.

A 2023 report released by Brady United Against Gun Violence, the organization I lead, revealed that millions of taxpayer dollars have gone to businesses with hundreds of violating federal firearms regulations and funding crime and violence. This means that too often, law enforcement agencies and governments are buying their firearms from dealers with a battery of alarming federal laws and allowing the very gun-thier to trying to keep off streets onto them in the first place.

Gun safety play is critical role in preventing firearms from entering the illegal market. Responsible dealer practices are the first line of defense against gun trafficking, stress purchases and other illegal sales.

Under Mayor Brandon Johnson's leadership, Chicago is using

the power of public procurement to raise the standard for responsible firearm sales. Rather than allowing irresponsible sellers to profit twice – first by selling firearms that are diverted into crime and violence, and then by receiving taxpayer-funded contracts from the very communities harmed by that violence – the city is taking steps to ensure public dollars support responsible business practices while encouraging higher standards across the firearm industry.

That commitment is reflected in an executive order signed by Johnson directing the Department of Procurement Services, in consultation with the Chicago Police Department, the Office of Public Safety Administration and the Department of Law, to develop enhanced procurement standards for firearms related purchases within 90 days. The standards will require prospective vendors seeking to do business with the city to disclose information regarding compliance with

firearm laws, responsible business practices, firearm-related violations, corrective actions and other information necessary to evaluate their commitment to preventing the unlawful diversion of firearms and promoting public safety.

Under the procurement standards, Chicago officials would also be able to consider vendors' efforts to prevent firearm trafficking, relevant employee training programs, security measures designed to prevent theft of fire-

arms and immunities, cooperation with law enforcement investigations involving firearms used in crimes and other public safety practices when providing or renewing contracts. These are all practices that keep guns away from children, traffickers, domestic abusers and others.

Chicago poses a growing number of cities and states, including Colorado, New Jersey, Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego – in adopting the Brady's model responsible procurement standards. These standards are part of Brady's long-standing effort to save lives and hold the gun industry accountable for the law. When governments are their purchasing power to demand accountability from gun dealers, communities are safer. Other states, cities and counties should adopt this playbook to align their procurement practices with their commitment to community safety.

Chicago's recent progress in reducing violence demonstrates that a comprehensive approach anchored in prevention, intervention, accountability and responsible governance works. Through sustained investments in community violence intervention, youth employment, victim services, behavior of health and coordinated violence reduction strategies, the city recorded its lowest number of homesides in nearly 60 years in 2025.

Changing procurement practices adds another tool to their toolbox. Other cities and states should take notice.

The liberal arts tradition doesn't have to die, just evolve

SPECIAL TO THE TRIBUNE

Many private liberal arts colleges are entering death theses, even an education in the humanities in our tumultuous world is more important than ever. There may be ways to save the tradition, if not all the initial break-and-morror campuses.

There are about 200 "national liberal arts colleges" in the popular U.S. North & West (Report reputation) rankings, and hundreds more "regional colleges" that also lead to more than humanities, social and natural sciences. Since 2010, about 100 American degree-granting colleges have closed in merged, according to best-selling law.

The enrollment picture has changed dramatically in recent decades. Power students are being graduated from high school, and fewer than 100 graduates are going on to traditional four-year colleges. In the business of higher education, the dreaded enrollment cliff drops off has begun.

Without adequate enrollment

and the tuition payments that accompany the students, many more colleges will close.

Over recent decades, liberal arts colleges have been separating into "tuition-driven" and "endowment-driven" models of finance, that is, colleges with modest endowments have had to rely primarily upon student tuition to finance their operations.

In contrast, colleges that husbanded big endowments from wealthy alumni could rely on income from those assets to finance much of their college operations; tuition has been less important and can be waived for high-achieving prospective students.

Today, a college's success is almost all about the money. The elite Ivy League and similarly well-known colleges tend to have big endowments and can buy the best students and faculty. Private colleges with $1 million or so of endowment per student, such as Grumell in Iowa and Beres in Kentucky, will also do not that going forward. Bores provides

$14,000-plus in support annually for each student, tuition cost to each student is $3.

On the other hand, private colleges with less than $100,000 endowment per student, which is most of them, are in a fix.

A $100 million endowment for a college that enrolls 1,000 students sounds like big money, but is works out to about $5,000 annual revenue per student. Yet, that college needs an order of magnitude more revenue per student than that to keep the place open.

The present model simply doesn't work for many of these colleges, with fewer students in the overall pool, intense competition from wealthy, well-bounded colleges that can save tuition charges, and campuses often inconveniently located in small towns for away from anywhere.

Today, students and families want quality, convenience, low out-of-pocket cost and jobs right out of college. Many colleges can't provide all that, not without revenue from large student loans, which have become understand-

ably toxic to many students and parents.

Bert that doesn't mean the liberal arts tradition has to die with Old Ivy. The underlying purpose of 19th century colleges was not to provide four-year residences far more than those for young men and women. The purpose was to enlighten future leaders, and the campus offered the only way to do so.

The following proposed model may not be the answer, yet it is illustrative of the thinking necessary.

To the college with $100 million in endowment, have the endowments, rather than lose it in trying to stave off an institutional death spiral. Since students won't come to campus in adequate numbers, yet the physical, campus, drama and recreational facilities.

If the students won't come to your campus, go to them. Use the endowment income to keep a care faculty that would provide dispersed, online liberal arts education. Work with public libraries to create low-cost, local

"Old Ivy Liberal Arts Chapter." In addition to providing online courses to "diapers" of students from 16 to 40 to age, faculty members could travel now and then to chapter locales to lead in-person discussions. Micro-credit, certification, even degree could be allotted.

For many colleges, the old model doesn't work for anyone. Now approaches must be shaped that invest the remaining endowment wisely. Recommitted colleges could provide quality, convenient, low-cost educational, the liberal arts to a wider public, which could deliver into the big questions, more important than ever, of "What maniacs" and "How should I lead my life?"

OPINION

Donald Trump's design capacity and design is a surprise

Edward Keegan

In June 2016, a journal of the entire city was signed when a certain New York and senior developer added five 20-foot tall roofed kitchen spoiling his name to the 16th floor of the open-zone tower living the Chicago River.

This moment and the ensuing lootfully seem quite against now.

The interpretation of design more or less, both of what is arguably the most architecturally distinguished building that bears Donald Trump's name — was just a preface to what he's doing at a far larger scale across Washington, DC, and beyond.

There's a wonder, some intonadaily, annuum-remot of new design process by the road union president, and one never knows the full name and budget for each project.

But there's seldom any necessity for them, and each reflect a Trump's never-coming capacity for self-regard.

The first of the time is the absolute disregard for expertise that's approved as virtually every single example.

There are many checks and balances that normally provide oversight of any architectural process. The most popular public spaces.

But Trump is now living the real estate developer's fantasy — with seemingly no laws, no penalties, no reviews, no budget and no outside expertise required. He's graciously making it up as he goes along.

And the next part just be measured in a billion and costs. It's part of a fundamental dismantling of processes mainly one side (itself) within. And when there have been no more review of some projects, they've hereby paved that he's stacked with growth expandable people, including members of the U.S. Commissioners of Fine Arts and Arts, the National Capital Planning Commission.

Trump's 'reporter' is building and design is highly over-

rated, as might be required when you realize how few of the build's says that have his name, how are enduring as little that I gather. In fact, his Chicago tower is of such quality as spite of the development, who chose the local office of Harkness, Georgia & Merrill only when he has the need of a well-regarded Chicago architect to more easily gain any approvals. Even so, the city needed to strong-arm him when he tried to eliminate the spire from its top to cut his costs.

While the new under construction balloons on the site of the demolition East Wing has garnered the most attention, Trump's focus resulting much of the White House's extensive 82-acre grounds over the past year.

This started with litch signage and aprimeously curated 'Gallery of the district' along the White House colonnade between the house and the West Wing.

Then the paving of the White House from Garden made a mockery of a garden. Similarly, the transformation of the center of the White House's South Levis into a helped-berkin historic

landscape for landscape. This latest element was reportedly demolished because Trump didn't like how the state's local platform was appearing within the sloped landscape. This is the cost of thing that could be needed through careful planning and reviews by multiple interested parties.

Since none of these appear to have been done, the costly changes are a direct result of Trump's habits and lack of respect for process and expertise.

The design of new White House visitors screening center just south of the Treasury Department extends the range of new, poorly conceived classical elements in proximity of the White House.

And the planned construction of permanent living around Lollacote Park, just north of the White House, will allow the upquish and easy closure of this public space that has often been the site of public demonstration that can capture the attention of the president.

The triumphal arch has been a stock figure in urban landscape for millenniums. Washington's

lack of such a structure is a lesson in constitutional discretion — these 'christs' from have not already been used to be seen. But Trump somehow feels that reaching 200 years is a grand triumph on his watch and to be. Instead of a more democratic system, it is not good since. And it needs to be big — because the norms to be the central measure be understands, other than giống to look will be prominently displayed on the multiple visitors alarming and arry's.

The 200-foot-tall structure will "a few-city office" 37 fixtures, one in the nation's capital according to a recent Section 100 review by the National Park Service.

The reasonable determination by the park service is based on the fact that the proposed arch is for use all, based on both historical procedures and its location on the low-lying portions of Washington that have reaffirmed in abstract by law and custom — to the Capitol and Philadelphia dimension.

And the very review of the arch that identified its adverse effects is in the conclusion of the administration. Now rules for Section

10s of the National Historic Preservation Act would limit or eliminate public comment and consultation on the state and tribal officials regarding historic properties, allowing political activity to replace professional input as well as broader engagement with their own underground sites. This would affect more than just Trump's perspective, it would make historic preservation that much more difficult throughout the country.

"You see America's 'Contemporary' habit and communism," read the next along the top of the new Obama President and General Secretary of State. But I don't think President Barack Obama meant that a future president should be forced as Trump has been to inflict his poorly conceived designs on America. The remainder of the Obama next term is a new international ingredient in our shared public experience and future.

And there's no 'we' in Trump's design place. "We" means that it is a more intellect and protect the public health, safety and welfare of us all — a structure that binds every forward architect practice to the public. But the public is not a new science are the ill-conceived designs of a man who has seen his career erecting mostly girdle and an abnormally undisturbed, and the public is not a new idea of the world. The designs that have a developing, we Washington show that his lack of design airry can't be hidden by taking an classical gap.

And there the letters across the facade of Trump Tower, Chicago that have mended this fine art for more than a decade are but a footnote to the aesthetic change. But Trump continues to display throughout the nation's capital.

CRGA adaptable for needs Energy prices are rising across the country because demand is increasing and there isn't enough supply to keep up. The 2026 full-limits particularly some in the PDR region, which includes the Chicago area, because PDR, the country's largest regional grid operator, failed to plan for data content and other big energy users.

A recent editorial correctly points to the need for more energy, and personal information are ranging finally in electricity markets for Illinois (chain energy law: 'Aug. 6). That's why, in the face of rising costs around the country, Illinois and markets merged up to produce more homogeneous energy (for 2026). Pritchard and Illinois legislators posted the Chicago and Reliable Gold Affordability (CRGA) Act to qualify many more energy supply with the grid. CRGA is one of being 3 papers of battery storage onto the grid by 2016, including the roughly 3 papers of statewide coal-fired generation set to retire in the state that is now the basic batteries helped Texas meet energy demand and data center growth.

The Illinois Power Agency is not to look at energy storage procurement more than month.

CRGA also includes an integrated Resource Plan, which is also in November 2026. Given the purpose of the 2026 full-time statewide coal-fired generation set, it is able to bring the state's shortfall 3-2f would allow the state to extend the Climate and Equitable Life Act's food plant retirement schedule, as the editorial acknowledges, "Resources for return".

Moreover, last month, the Illinois Commerce Commission approved the state's first virtual power plant (VPP) program to provide energy, statewide, and electricity costs for all customers next summer.

By focusing on the lowest-cost and fastest digital-side solutions, and on the most recent energy storage, VPPs and energy efficiency, Illinois' actions outpave those of other states in PDR's first year.

As PDR addresses challenges

with its interconnection queue and reforms in market, an acknowledgement that high-capacity prices haven't reached, eliminating the new power lines, more work can be done in Illinois. Low-modern can ensure that data centers coming to the state bring investment and clean energy supply to insulate existing customers. Investment can range from injecting more dollars into programs to upgrade homes with advanced energy technology to more transmission and clean generation.

CRGA provides Illinois with the tools to meet rising demand without a trade-off between the facility and reliability. Promotively extending the life of costly food fuel power generation to response to rising costs is a market undergoing reforms in an era after Illinois customers with more costs than other new messages.

Stop the course on movement

Regarding the editorial calling for the Climate and Equitable Act, the 2026 full-time statewide coal-fired program to operate part for 2030 deadline, I believe there is not a 50% irresponsible advice. In case anyone hasn't reached, climate changes is already here and will only get worse. Our best hope is to transition quickly to solar and wind power and battery storage to alleviate the worst case scenario for people and other ill-conceived who have are dependent. The case for severe effects is so range if long that it's difficult to imagine deliberate, focusing business around. Renewable on some cheaper electricity and a cleaner, healthier environment.

As someone who grew up along the Gulf Coast of Texas, I saw the pollution and dangerous conditions around by the oil and gas industry and also, sadly, the greed and misinformation generated by those companies. Fortunately, we now have cleaner, greener, safer ways to generate power.

Illinois has been up to 60% with renewable energy. It would be the utmost 50% to over from that path.

Benefits of community solar Many people assume solar energy is only for homeowners who can afford to allow panels to meet. Extreme community solar project shows that's simply not true.

A decade ago, when Illinois entered policies to step out access to renewable energy, the government's simply building a generator — it was due to reason that neither the number city nor ZIP code nor your project would determine if you had access to the benefits of local solar power and energy.

Today, the Terence community solar program serves hundreds of households and nearly 60 Chicago. Many subscribers are women earning less than $50,000 a year, families that spend a large share of their income on energy bills, they participate shared with the money she has earned on electricity or helping some give it access to their expenses, including the added cost of buying her apartment and during increasingly hot summers.

The benefits virtual well beyond individual subscribers. Community solar projects create local jobs, generate tax revenue, support workforce development and create new opportunities for agricultural businesses, all while providing affordable energy options for households.

By generating electricity closer to where it's used, community solar strengthens the development and helps reduce striates on the electric grid. As battery storage expands, virtual power plants, or VPPs — network of local solar and storage devices — can deliver locally generated electricity when demand is highest, improving reliability and helping contain complex all customers.

As states confront rising electricity demand and growing economic about affordability, community solar offers one practice ways to expand energy options while delivering benefits to households and local communities.

What has we had in Illinois thanks to the leadership of Gov. JB Pritchard and the legislator, won't translate perfectly to other states. The good news is that path cynicalers don't have to start from

scratch. Thanks to resources such as The New Statewide Power distributed energy resources policy (Harkness), a private all-trans work project, and other policies that will improve energy affordability, resilience and reliability.

The success of these policies isn't measured only in many, particularly due to families who can afford governance, medications, household expenses and immune cooling because their ability to fill an issue. Community solar demonstrates that clean energy and lower energy bills don't have to be competing priorities. With the right policies, homeowners and nonoccupied cars draw in the benefits of solar affordable, reliable energy system.

What Rebuild Illinois achieved When many individuals about industry is underrepresent, they picture the construction site: energy levels, heavy equipment and workers should be a road or bridge.

Some things will only part of the story. To understand the true value of infrastructure is investment, we need to look beyond the construction zone.

A new analysis of the state capital program Rebuild Illinois shows what we find when we do. The nonpartisan Illinois Economic Policy Institute estimated 1000 in the National Park Service, the most recent made between 2020 and 2025. The study, commissioned by the American Council of Engineering, brings more of Illinois, found such dollar results generated approximately 10.7% in revenues, activity recoveries — a nearly 2000s return and approximately 82 for every dollar revenue in the Chicago region.

These benefits reach far beyond engineering and construction.

Rebuild Illinois created or preserved approximately 19,200 jobs annually. About 21,600 were directly connected to construction, and nearly 17,000 additional

jobs were supported outside the construction industry through supply chain purchase and spending by workers from projecting them.

Local governments benefit as well. Rebuild Illinois increased more fuel tax distributions to counties, owned public and private homes. The 2026 full-time statewide oil bill on inbound funding for local infrastructure is the communication move forward with projects that might otherwise be delayed or unloaded.

The broader economic activity generated by the program produced an estimated $169 million on additional local tax and $1.2 million on the building approximately $102 million annually in the Chicago area.

For suburban municipalities facing rising costs and limited resources, those benefits matter. Strengthening the local tax base is a significant factor in 2026's deteriorating roads and bridges before they become more disruptive — and more expensive — to repair.

Rebuild Illinois has helped repair more than 21,000 miles of roadway,创意提高 or replace more than 800 bridges and complete nearly 1,200-mile improvements.

Yet substantial needs remain. Rebuild Illinois was a direct payment on decades of deferred maintenance, not the final amount. Rebuild Illinois has shown investment does not save money. It shifts higher costs and greater safety and reliability problems to the future.

The study results show why Illinois should break infrastructure on an estimated 1,000 miles of roadway, 700 returns is measured not only in smoothest roads and storage bridges, but also in jobs across the economy, stronger local history. The findings remain in the progress and more competitive construction.

VINTAGE CHICAGO TRIBUNE BREAKING HISTORY SINCE 1847

MOMENT'S MADNE

GREENDEEP

Controversy about religion in Chicago schools took a deadly turn in 1876

By Robert Lowryd FOR THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE

When a city official shot and killed a school principal on a North Side street in 1876, a Tribune headline called it 'A Moment's Madame'.

And as Alexander Sullivan went on trial, facing a murder charge in Francis Hanford's death, it became one of that era's most talked about criminal cases, sparking arguments over guns, justice and religion.

The dramatic events of 150 years ago began at a Chicago City Council meeting on the afternoon of Aug. 7, 1876, when a committee opposed five nominees to the Board of Education. Prior to the council vote, AM John M. Van Dodel (a prominent architect) had read about two anonymous letters that claimed three nominees were in a conspiracy to 'retype the schools,' led by one of the era's low female journalists, Margaret Buchanan Sullivan.

Margaret Buchanan, who emigrated from Ireland as a young girl, had met Alexander Sullivan, a handsome son of Irish immigrants, when they both lived in Detroit. In 1874, they got married in Chicago where they both wrote for newspapers before Alexander was named secretary of the Board of Public Works. Margaret was 'the most charming of journalists,' a Washington Post writer observed, noting she had 'a high intellectual forehead, blue eyes, and a wealth of public-like which she allows to fall in every manner about her shoulders.'

For years, Catholic had been complaining about to share in Chicago's city was schools reading to children from the King James Bible, which they viewed as a Protestant practice. On Sept. 28, 1875, the Board of Education had voted to 'make out all references to Bible reading and the Lord's Prayer' from the curriculum. Now, the Catholic Mrs. Sullivan was accused of masterminding that more, among other allegations.

'The instigation and engineer-in-chief of all derisfer connected with the legislation of the Board is Mrs. Sullivan,' one of the anonymous letters said. '... The exclusion of the Bible is an example of this kind of work.'

Both Sullivan said there was no truth to the better statements. But Alexander Sullivan was especially offended by one of their allegations that Margaret used her 'influence' with Harvey Carran, who was mayor from 1875 to 1875, to get her husband appointed to the position. Apparently thinking 'influence' was a sound reference, Sullivan viewed this as 'a very infamous implication,' he later testified.

Confronted by Sullivan, Van Dodel defended reading the letters but also revealed the author of one of them. Francis Hanford, the 46-year-old principal of North Division High School.

That evening, the Sullivan rode by carriage to Hanford's home at 247 Oak St. (now 120 W. Oak). Hanford was outside chatting with Chicago Evening Post busi-

ness manager David S. McMullen. Alexander Sullivan demanded a public retraction from Hanford, who refused, saying, 'I will make my proof at the proper time.' Sullivan retorted, 'You are a dog, sir.'

McMullen later testified that he then 'saw Sullivan into the Hanford and knock him down, and catch him by the throat. I pulled himself, and put my arm around his neck and caught his left hand. He struggled to get away.'

Margaret called out, 'Ake, Ake, don't hurt him,' and rushed between the men. Hanford his/her brother, according to Margaret's testimony. Despite being restrained by McMullen, Sullivan managed to reach a hand inside a pocket.

'I thought it was darnfully the striking of my wife,' Sullivan testified, 'and I drew my sweater with the determination of protecting myself and her, for I was held firmly and he was free. The thought flashed through my mind that I would wound him, that I would break his arm, the arm that had struck her... I have no distinct results from about cooking, the panel, or anything else. I remember the shot and the cry of somebody, 'He is shot.''

The bullet hit Hanford near his hip, assuring his abdomen and cutting even. He was carried into his house, where his wife, Louise, and their three sons, ages 8-12 and 15, began their to speak. 'There was nothing to show that he had been shot except the white cloud that stole over his feet, wet now with the death-damp and now with the loving tears that fell in torrents up to the Tribune'.

In a sermon that week, Michigan Avenue Methodist Church pastor

Matthew M. Paddoard blamed the Catholic Church for Hanford's killing. In Paddoard's view, the Sullivan killed Hanford because their Catholic faith required them to punish him for his statements. 'Some must beepsilon by her faithful servants,' he said. 'Inspired by this teaching, they did their friends work.'

A Tribune editorial denounced Paddoard's sermon, also insisting that the Bible must be kept out of public schools.

At Sullivan's trial that October, defense lawyer William W. O'Brien argued Sullivan was acting in self-defense because he was being restrained while Hanford smoothed his wife. 'He drew his pistol, and blamed he God, he used it,' O'Brien said.

Sullivan said he was carrying the pistol out of habit, not because he planned to kill Hanford. He said he'd began carrying a gun after he was shot at several times. 'The habit grew upon me without any particular reason or thought, and I put it in my pocket as I did my watch,' Sullivan testified.

At the time, Illinois law and a Chicago ordinance prohibited carrying concealed weapons. But Judge William K. McAllister, a former Illinois Supreme Court justice, told jurors 'a citizen has a right to carry about his person, clouded pistol for a lawful purpose, and the protection of one's person from an unlawful attack is a lawful purpose.'

The trial ended with a hung jury J. J. Berry, the one juror who had held out for a guilty verdict, faced an angry crowd afterward. 'The mob cursed him, and there was some talk of teaching him,' the Tribune reported. 'They fussed him, and

one said, 'Damn you, I wish your neck was broken. You ought to be hung, you scratched!''

On the other hand, 650 Chicagoans signed a petition demanding McAllister's resignation, saying he'd tried the trial in Sullivan's favor. The Tribune condemned McAllister for 'ruling to the most astonishing manner, trampling statute for under four, disregarding decisions of the Supreme Court, and finally charging the jury in a way that was tantamount to instruction to acquire.'

McAllister even said in court he'd made up his mind that Sullivan was innocent. 'I know my neighbor as a storm of excitement raised against me,' he said. 'It will continue until the fever — a regular Chicago fever to which his subject occasionally — passes over and dies out according to the laws of nature.'

At Sullivan's second trial in March 1877, with McAllister again presiding, the jurors were unanimous not guilty. Afterward, the Bloomington Pantagraph said the court had established the new law of Chicago 'that the killer is the only proper judge of the propriety of the killing, and that this considered a necessary to commit the murder... the homicide is justifiable, and nothing is to be done about it.'

In the coming years, Alexander Sullivan was admitted to the bar as a lawyer and became a bus in Clan on God, a secret society pushing for Ireland's independence from Britain. Under Sullivan's leadership in the 1800s, the group 'traded and dejected' young men from the United States to plant bombs in English and Scottish cities. 'I miss to Gillian O'Brien wrote. The Giants killed no one, but they stared people and damaged buildings.'

Sullivan was suspected, but not charged, in one of the 34th century's most famous Chicago murders: the 1849 killing of a rival Clan member, Patrick Henry Cronin. 'Many members of the Clan, and Chicago's political and legal elite, thought he had been instrumental in organizing the killing and the attempted cover up,' O'Brien wrote in her 2003 book, 'Blood Rape Grown: The Murder That Transfused Gilded Age Chicago.'

Meanwhile, the jurors continued her career as a journalist, writing for various newspapers and magazines, including the Tribune's reporting from Europe for Associated Press, and presenting cases including women's rights. When she died in 1903, an obituary called her 'the most brilliant woman the American press has produced.'

After Alexander Sullivan died in 1912, a large crowd gathered for his funeral at Holy Name Cathedral. 'He was a man who lived for his land and his friends. And for both he fought indomitable,' the Rev. Maurice J. Deveny said. 'And he has wife he had a love that only men like Alexander Sullivan possessed.'

Iran makes new demands on state

Opening of waterway tied to call for US to ‘correct its behavior’

Iran issued dramatic new demands around the couponing of the West of Neerhan, and the United Arab Emirates may use a 50-stage water targeted by an Iranian mowbik.

Iran's publickids like both known as the Supreme National Security Council and the Brunt of Neerhan will not open until the United States' turrets in human- issuing new demands that could disbelieving talks can lead to mutage the waterway and traffic on it.

The United States must nerve threaten Iran again, the statement said, and mean permanently and the way with Iran and its armed allies in the region. The US must lift the stand-blockade of Iranian ports and with- drawn its military from the arm. It also sets 'completely' compared to 'a line of damage lift sanctions and 'sunconditionally' release from assets.

According to the interim des- signed in June, a schedule of end sanctions and plan on compensation would be part of the final deal, and talks would address frozen assets.

Iranian Foreign Minister Alifan Araghih earlier Satur- day said they were close to reaching an agreement on newspapers, 'specials for the determination of a Iranian roam.' But the waterway's cropping is contingent on other conditions, he said in remark to shared on social media, and blamed the state on what he called the US relation of the interim deal.

Oman, a mediator Gulf Andi country which has had relatively little on the talks, said in a statement Saturday

that the discussions were ongoing 'in a positive and constructive atmosphere,' and condemned attacks on ship on the state.

Later, the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations Center said a vessel east of the town of Ghazali, Oman, had been struck by a pro- perfect that caused a fire that was put out, with the vessel and crew safe. It was not clear whether the vessel had ADINOC incident.

Another ship, a sure- tioned tanker carrying nearly 1 million barrels of

oil, appears to have become further submerged in waters off the coast of Oman where it has been grounded for weeks, and the range reviewed by The Associated Press show.

Crude oil has been leak- ing and spreading quickly in recent days from the Carolina Rearing and has reached the shores of Qhhladi Island, off Oman's northwest coast.

Presidential essays have

clues for current leader

Writing a don't say his name but offer lessons for Trump

WASHINGTON - When former President George W. Bush wrote an essay this year about another president named George, he smoked with the King President Donald Trump.

Though the project was explicitly designed to trans- cend today's politics, some of its essays nevertheless reflect ourselves that are flea- ling in the era of Trump and the use of power, the health of the democracy and the inter- city of the presidency.

The project is being curated by Colleen Shogun, the U.S. archival final with- out explanation by Trump last year. She instructed

contributors not to be parti- can or ideological. 'Every body took those instructions and they guidance very un- ready,' she told The Asso- ciated Press. 'The goal was for all Americans to 'feel welcome to be able to read these lessons and essays and learn something from them.'

The mission, Shogun said, 'is to surface the lessons from the past 250 years of American history, so that we can learn from these lessons. From both our successes and our failures, so we can plan for the present and the future. It's what has been described as defending the American story.'

The essays cover 44 pres- idents - all but Democratic former President Joe Biden and Republican Trump - and "What I after. They are being published chronically all's and weekly into December."

Trump and Biden were judged too fresh to be appraised by history, a call that may have done not aside practices of the moment.

Without naming Trump, Bush's essay is difficult to read without thinking of Trump's reluctance to codi- power after his 2010 election debat and his musing about

a third term in defiance of the Constitution's two-term lines.

Bush's essay celebrates George Washington, the original 'His Kings' guy, Bush, a Republican, built a man whose legacy only previ- larger because he modeled the limits of the presidency for centuries to come.

In so doing, he not remained for all presi- dents to live up to' First, Washington's resigned an commander in chief of the Continental Army, then not to precedent of serving only two presidential terms before that limit was reinforced in the Constitution.

Senate OKs funding bill to avoid shutdown before midterm election

By Kevin Freising and Lisa Maticani ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON - The Senate in an overweight con- cerned campaign approved a short-term measure to fund federal agencies into the rights and avoid a potentially cheerly government shut- down during the middle of campaign season.

The first summer election on a funding list is unusual. Secondly, Congress waits until the final days or hours

of a funding deadline to pass short-term patches, but this time senators could nearly two months before the end of the fiscal year Sept. 30.

The 95-6 vote showed lowmakers are still smarting from the two historic shut- downs this past year and want to avoid another before where go to the polls.

Senate Matorry Lauder John Thune wanted the funding dealt with before sentence went home for the next five weeks to focus on their reductions campaigns

and other matters. It got roughly up with other issues that pushed votes into the rights, but the bill had break big actions support.

The House will also have to approve the measure when members return from their August recess.

The bill generally funds the government at current levels through Dec. 11, but includes a variety of excep- tions that are under negotiated with the White House.

Democrats' second of language to ensure no money

could be transferred to the Borden Patrol. They also rejected the White House's request of $3 billion for each week on a new 'Trump- class' battleship that the administration announced Dec. 22.

The bill also includes languages delaying a national ban on most inten- susing home products. That one-month delay prompted outrage from some Senate Republicans who say that the many such products are falling into the hands of often

unsuspecting children. The packaging of the products often often on bright colors and intentionally musing popular snack brands to attract consumers.

Democrats' lawmakers' along with Sen. Susan Collins, B. Maine, also got language in the bill that would block for the duration of the fund- ing patch, new reguli- tions on federal grants. The regulations would require a senior political appoint- tee to review grants before they are awarded to senate,

among other things, that they advance the president's policy priorities. Democrats were yet an effort to kill grants destined for Demo- cats's money state.

Senators' bill has break until September, pausing a crusading standard over Trump's demands that they may in advance to pass a strict proof of citizenship voting bill. Some Republicans sense- mented Trump they'd review the effort in a funding bill for the first war and the Prote- gan's budget.

Vance trolls critics on right, left alike

Sparing nothing, VP launches expletives, insults, personal jabs

By Peter Baker THE NEW YORK TIMES

WASHINGTON — It was hardly the first time that someone on social media called on to see the far first it may have been the first time that a true president of the United States did so.

Pennsil at a conservative comment who criticised his position on Iran, Vice President Ali Vance jolted on the Wednesday at his physical appearance. “If you've ever met him in person,” he wrote on social media, “it's quite obvious the man has never missed a barrier.”

In an era when playground made you less political dialogue, few have hoped into the online flame wave with more gums than Vance. The best millennial everyone identified as long-flavored with the decrease and remission of the world. The most popular after the 'idiot' and 'scoutking' who aspired from the 'feminist-soculation' on the left to the 'diagnosized' conservative on the right.

His works, of course, for the master of the personal put-down, and perhaps that explains Vance's perspective as one of the administrative itself trolls. But even if he hopes to improve President Donald Trump, Vance also appears to have a natural opposite for conflict: the product of a generation that grew up with gladdened political instincts. It is not enough that someone else may be wrong about policy or politics. One people's stupid, mental, less, rite or, yes, even overweight.

“Vice President Vance's willingness publicly to disparage others in personal sense would spare from the behavior of modern vice presidents during the last half-century,” said his Goldstein man, a scholar of the pro-presenters at the St. Louis University School of Law.

Vice President, Al Vance, says July 4, has dispersed with any restraint of the offer. MAGAZINE DIGEST/THE NEW YORK TIMES

Whatever his motivation, Goldstein added. “It depends upon the norms associated with the office and undermines the goal of promoting rational public discourse.”

Vance's advisers and allies were differently: he engaged with critics, however disparaging, they argue that he is demonstrating the sort of accessibility and authenticity Americans are craving, at least Americans of a particular stripe. He has himself been the target of plenty of ugly attacks and should be free to push back. Those who are harmless or unassured, they say, as the same poop on elites who have similarly not turned Trump for more than a decade.

“I tend to err on the side of openness,” Vance told NBC News early last year. “That's probably a great about this right? I come from a very hard forward generation.”

Still, even Vance was reticed some concern with his online habits. In May he told NBC that he had given up social media for a cut, offering the app for it, formerly called Twitter, from

his phone. “He was of those things where we're being fed on a dollar here, I think, but made me much more productive,” he said.

But he said that living “in such a crazy bubble” means that social media gave him a chance to have unplanned interactions with people. “I think one of the good things about social media is that I actually exposes you to unfiltered, low opinions, and that's one of the things that I need to have as a political leader,” he added.

“So I will definitely wait still I bet I've enjoyed my faith break from it.”

A spokesperson for the vice president, who declined to comment on the record, said Vance's words in NBC still stood, but that did not mean he would not engage online with supporters and critics alike.

What makes Vance's comfort to time online so striking is that it comes in contrast to other venues where he projects a more thoughtful, measured dimension. His new book, 'Communism,' released in

June, offered an impression for God at his journey from evangelical Christians to an atheism to Catholicism. To promote it, he was seen as ABC's 'The Voter' for a region on but cold interview with the needy liberalists.

One of the hosts, Dr. Rebe, even said after a visit to the Vance had a sense of humor and that, while the disagreed with Vance's view of social nature (2018) because he would stop being so much, “I think if he were president, let's go back to living a leader person,” said Trump in the one who's not kind of.

Vice president Vance played the role of attack big, relationship front to be more aggressive than the president they served. The most cooperative vice president of the modern age was surely Spies Agnew, who eagerly served as President Richard Thomas Jr. but against personal, immediate liberals (“pandemic more powerhouse”), John Sutton's 'nuttering taboho of unpatriates' and some who protesters (“a better corpse of unguided stunts”).

But he never had access to the halfway of social media. But the successes have generally taken a less abusive, even energy-appeared attacking opponents, yes, but moving away from the kind of personal disrepresentation that Vance leaves. Even Mike Pence, Trump's first vice president, maintained at old fashioned disciplined and has been the only one who's in office, in sharp contrast to Vance's bring-in activities.

Jamal Simmons, who served as communist, was director for Vice President, Female Harris, said Vance appeared to be auditioning for Trump's support for a presidential run in 2020.

“I would guess that the culture of Vance's boss is grading his performance,” Simmons said. “In the Trump administration, everybody has an audience of 100, and you get rewarded for being pugilist,” said nearby.

Vance certainly has the pugilistic, snark part down. Never made it of a sure that one's stock kind of jabs he issued blast after blast

through most of last year and now early this year until his Leuten back from social media. What makes him different from Trump, who regularly attacks the nationalists alike online is that Vance directly responds to critical messages and gets into back-and-forth arguments with other powers.

Vance's own voice doesn't tolerate the disagreements and criticizes from the various people in our coalition, he wrote last year about Vance's own business. He has been a lot of success. But when he hesitates, he has been a very low-pressure, and I have seen tolerance for a startling attitude. He has been a 'everyday' who I've seen attack healthy with for a 'scouring'.

He does not hesitate to go back to the public who entertain. Very bliss in the former ABC News survey-makers, is “a felling radical,” he claimed. And he has done all the Jewish trouble he wrote, is either “the biggest fault in the world.” He has been a restaurant at its Washington.

But does he hesitate to take on fellow Republicans. David Rudin, whom I biography describes him, is a 'right-wing Twitter pugilist,' is according to the vice president, a 'loser' for supporting the Vance's reserve in kicking the campaign. He has been an important powerful. Right-wing influencers like Laura Leeman, Vance wrote, are 'diagnosed actually' for 'stucking the administration' and 'moving division' in a dispute about how much to focus on abortion.

After he deleted his app for Lent, Vance's social media had turned more omenational, evidently maintained by his staff. For the past couple of months it broadly praised Trump, boasted about the vice president's anti-broad efforts, and not thing about Vance's widespread Trump name more, offered support to political allies, pro-ruptors on from the unorganized Trump even more.

Nigerians detail suffering, death seen during 6 months in captivity

By Pekore Satake ASSOCIATED PRESS

SURIN, Kenya — home of the 2016 kidnapped Nigerians criticised the 2016 U.S. government have spoken of the suffering and fear they lived in for six months.

The food captives, mostly in the food and children, were among over 100 kidnappers victims found by Nigerians forces last week.

They were handed over to the authorities by security forces in Simin, the capital of Kenya state, on Friday for medical attention and routine checks, and were anticipating their return home to remain with their families.

Many hikers recalled days without hard suffering, about alongside others to learn other foreigners who died in experience. They said they had never touched a dead body or buried one before, said “I still cannot find the right words to describe what has happened to us. We can death and suffering.”

The Nigerians were abducted Feb. 2 when jihad militants stoned the village of the kidnapping more than 160 others.

In the hospital where they were receiving medical attention, the food captives looked untact and with many

laying on the floor, barely able to stand, while others had injuries and remaining, scorn from their mind. Some of the women were infected. The food husbands had been among those killed during the February attack.

Some told The Associated Press how they had given up on any hope of returning home. Others recounted people falling sick, being beaten by the rain and told to hide whenever Nigerians military helicopter flies over the forest hideouts where the captives held them.

Amin's hides, a nurse who was among those lived, said the helped about 10 pregnant women deliver their babies to the forests: “I had no choice but to use my bare hands,” she said.

Localize Woro said they suspected the killing of the kidnapping were in the government for their resistance to the preaching of the jihadity.

Hawes hides re-died how the captives constantly asked for abductives to be sent, excepted those preaching. Kills, whose husband was killed in the attack, said the refused to accept them.

We turned out to be the group of local home, but it never really seemed our minds that we were going to go back home,” said hides, 10.

February's attack was one

of the deadliest in Nigeria in recent years, and showed how military rebound previously focused their activities to the north are moving south through the central nation, where gangs compete for territory and control of natural resources in villages where they outnumber the country's concrete re-hood security forces.

The U.S. representative support support to Nigeria under an agreement is any aims to protect Nigerian Christians, though much of that support is restricted to hygienic and intelligence-gathering, at the heart of the violence in the north.

Mass kidnappings have come to define Nigeria's security issues, with schoolchildren also targeted.

The victims in the Madhya country Woro were injured and was alongside 145 other victims who had been kidnapped, mostly from the neighboring Niger state. Local authorities did not say how the captives were rescued from the dense, repeated forest of the Katiu Lake National Park.

Nigerian President Bela S. Nugbe said he saw the “largest rescue operation ever” (unbeliebed on a single day, and promised to amend) operations against armed gangs.

Zelenskyy visits Moscow recently Serbia in Russian airstrikes kill 4

By Jovana Gos and Vishaghay Yarchuk, ASSOCIATED PRESS

BELGRADE, Serbia — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's presence in Russia's latest deadly attacks on Kirin on home due to his visits to Serbia, one of the few European countries that has maintained Russia's relations with Moscow throughout its because of Ukraine.

Four people, including a child, were killed in the sovereign arm of the country and the surrounding region (Ukrainian forces) in Russia's oil facilities.

Zelenskyy arrived in Belgrade on Friday for his first official visit to Serbia.

Spelling in news could be seen in Belgrade with Zelenskyy, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic described Ukraine as a “friendly nation” in the country, honored to welcome the Ukrainian leader — the first visit to a Ukrainian president in eight years.

The two leaders discussed their countries’ efforts toward coming the European Union, bilateral ties and ways to expand cooperation.

Kyiv's residents face regular desas and missile barrages that (Ukraine's) depleted air defences are struggling to counter against the power of a nuclear full-scale invasion, while opposed Ukrainian strikes on oil facilities have caused fear the target.

Vucic, who has maintained closer ties, is a member of the Russian over the invasion — downspaying over from the EU to change course, returned due Serbia responses. “Kriim is a friend of war, and said that position would not change.”

“The situation in Ukraine is difficult,” Zelenskyy said. “The situation is a problem. There was another national strike last night — ballistic missiles targeting our infrastructure. There were also attack drones.”

Zelenskyy said that deliveries of Patriot air defense interceptors — the sole air defense sergeants (Ukraine) around able to shoot down ballistic missiles — have slowed compared with a new.

Zelenskyy said Washington State agreed to let Ukraine manufacture its own Patriot air defense interceptors, but that they are “stock dealing with paperwork.”

“The process for some of these increases is also taking ‘rising time,’ he said.

In Russia, six people were wounded when a fire broke out at the likely Oil Refinery in the southern Krasnodar region, due to debris from a killing drone, local officials said.

Ukraine's General Staff said Ukrainian forces retract the refinery in Krasnodar, along with the Patriot Oil Refinery in the Yamara region, more than 200 miles from the state of the Russian Federation. He said, “The Russian's infantryman, the Russian regate, said drones hit an ‘industrial enterprise,’ but he did not mention the impact of the war.” Ukraine's almost daily long range drone and missile strikes using abnormally developed weapons have been reported in the facilities for months. The operation has brought a short visit that is entertaining the Kremlin. Also, Ukraine paid tribute on Saturday to Oleksy Yulev,

excitement who spent more than two decades recovering the bodies of civilians and soldiers — many of them Russian — killed by war. He was 60.

An Orthodox Christian service was held at the Cathedral of Saint Wrothmer, in central Bern, where thousands of people gathered to put their respects following the death in a landslide. The church was also known as mission Wednesday. Mears are also gathered at Bern's main Mardan Square before the service.

Yulev boarded the Filatadare (“belagidand”) organization because he believed all the dead require a proper hand. He became known as a “chance of a scale.”

Yulev, from the war-term Serbian region, was awarded arts instructors. He began recovering the dead as a teenager after one continuing the remains of Soviet Union. He was a child of the World War II. Filatadare's infantryman at oneepsilon and forests, among ruins and across territory, where the ground is often ruined. Yulev's widow, Felteniyu Kishcheva, promised to continue his work. “The work was difficult and difficult to do with the war,” said a funeral. “But I promise you we will continue it because the blacks deserve it, and you deserve it for everything you did.”

Blanche narrowly confirmed as Act

50-49 victory comes after 2 in GOP vote against Trump's pick

By Alanna Durkin Richer and Lisa Mancuso ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — The Senate confirmed Todd Blanche as attorney general in a vote early Saturday, consisting the command of President Donald Trump's former personal lawyer at a Department of Justice that Trump has sought to bond to his will. The Republican bid Senate would be 49 to make Blanche the second confirmed attorney general since Trump returned to the White House last year with a stated desire to use the law enforcement agency to investigate his political statutes. While Blanche has already been leading the department in an acting capacity, his confirmation could live him to pursue the administration's agenda even more aggressively.

Blanche said on social media that he was "deeply honored by the trust and confidence President Trump has placed in my," adding that he was 'granted' to maintain his working law to confirm him.

The two 8-Blend-Crismal taxes confirmed might that opposed drug concerns. The 8-Blend-Crismal tax would be Democrats — about including Trump's close all at top a Justice Department that honored the special deal of against Republican fronts in White House.

In the end, Blanche was confirmed by the narrowest of margins, opposed by two Republicans — Sens Susan Collins of House and Lisa Markowski of Alaska — and by every Democrat.

The public is confirmation for Blanche was unusually costly, due in large part to Republican concerns about a controversial settlement of Trump's lawsuit against the IRS. Under pressure, Blanche publicly promised a 50-49 bill that the department would abandon Trump's proposed

E18 billion compensation fund for the president's office including those who attacked the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2020, and who in another piece of the settlement designed to shield Trump and his family from IRF tax audits.

His appeals were enough to have over Republican bills. Bill Cassidy, the decisive vote who threw his support behind Blanche on Friday morning, Cassidy makes other nominees may be able to reache department better under Trump and suggested Blanche's role as Trump's former criminal defense lawyer can make him more effective at pushing him to the Republican president's demands.

"This is not a referendum on President Trump. It is a decisive regarding Mr. Blanche as very specific circumstances," said Cassidy, who lost his primary this year

to a Trump-backed challenge.

Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said confirming Blanche would be a "serious mistake." He hoped his colleagues sat to be on the "wrong side" of history.

"If there is ever a moment in history when we need an Attorney General above reproach, who is clearly dedicated to ending corruption, even at the highest level of our government, it might now," Durbin said.

The vote capped off, showing confirmation light, with Blanche's loyalty to Trump at the center of the statement. Blanche was elevated to this top Justice Department post in an acting capacity after Trump's brief ban Bond in April. Blanche moved swiftly to advance the pres-

dent's interests, accelerating investigations into Trump's personal loss and announcing the settlement that created the E18 billion 'Anti-Weaponization Fund.'

The controversial settlement threatened to torpedo Blanche's nomination and he formally succeeded the fund in writing under pressure from Republican Sens John Conroy of Texas and Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina. The deal reached between the senators and the department unlocked even in the Senate Judiciary Committee, who had moved Black to nomination earlier last week. MacDonald announced early Friday that the would join Collins in opposing Blanche nominations, saying the county needs an interest general "who will check the worst impulses of this administration."

A former federal prosecutor in New York, Blanche rose to public prominence at a local attorney on Trump's defense team, including during the Republican's back money trial in New York. He also defended Trump against criminal charges to the two federal cases brought by the Black administration's Department of Justice — an experience Blanche has said provided him a firsthand look at what he contends was the exopextuation of the crime and justice system against Trump.

Blanchesubset the Justice Department last year as deputy attorney general in the Senate, reviewing the agency's day-to-day operations and serving as the public face for high-profile and controversial situations. She threatened millions of investigators that refused to disgraced Blanche's

Jeffrey Epstein.

Democrats have accused Blanche of prioritizing his loyalty to Trump, down all else through investigations against Trump fees such as former FBI Director James Conroy and a radical rebugeing of the department. Under Bonds and Blanche's leadership, the department has lost thousands of employees through firings, resignations or voluntary departures.

Blanche's supporters say his experience as a federal prosecutor and the trust he earned from Trump in the courtroom make him better equipped than Bonds to explain to the White House the legal constraints of its demands. Republicans have also turned his efforts to bring down violent crime, tackle illegal investigations and combat violent cartels and drug trafficking.

NEWS BRIEFING

ICE says all agents to get body cameras in August as video release disputed

FROM NEWS SERVICES

WASHINGTON — U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Saturday it appears every officer and agent in the field to be equipped with shock camera at the ticket August, a rapid expansion that could provide an approach to the federal government's interstate enforcement operations.

But whether the public will get to see that foreign remains largely up to ICE.

The agency defended the body worn camera policy amid questions about provisions allowing ICE leadership to withhold or indefinitely dollar footage after serious injuries or deaths in custody. Acting Director Charles McClell, and the restrictions are intended to protect investigations and privacy and are consistent with federal law and policies and the federal law enforcement agencies.

Former UIC's retirement came in response to an Associated Press report on ICE policy, including a provision calling for the expedited release of foreign office cases on injury or death in custody when doing an determined "free operation" to玻璃e in the case of the agency.

Vonturella said the 49 "mechanism test" the policy by confirming that provision with ICE's broader authority to release body camera fees and other foreign policy calls for that foreign should not be released when doing so could compromise investigations or privacy.

The "right" report did not set the provision governs every release — if "body-camera footage, it focused on ICE's policy for refusing foreign information to be used, or that is not a general circumstance with the public those involving any one injury or death.

The 49 sought comment from ICE before its initial

story Friday. The agency provided partial responses without addressing the provision that footage would be released when in its "fear comment."

ICE has been under-knightened scrutiny since the fatal shooting in July at a 25-year-old motorist in Manchra on ICE office with a battery of violent behaviors. Day-a-other, another ICE officer shot and killed a Houston housebuilder driving to work. Number shooting was recorded with body camera.

Vonturella said ICE was "committed to transparency and accountability" and was "on track to equip every officer and agent in the field with body-worn cameras by the end of August."

Honeybees not in healthy place

Veterinarians making hive calls to assist keepers in fight against now commonplace mass die-offs

By Emily Antlos THE NEW YORK TIMES

A role University of Georgia's veterinary teaching hospital, sparing animal doctors learn to minister to a managerial, doggy with dermatitis and horses with cells, diabetic cats and malnourished parents, bleeding rabbits and wheezing snakes.

"Whatever hope through the door," said Dr. Jörg Mayer, an exotic animal vet at the hospital. "Or slithers."

But on a breezy Sunday morning in April, Mayer was in a small, evergreen field, teaching students how to make house calls on a group of patients that rarely made it through the hospital door — or onto the standard veterinary curriculum. The students climbed into stiff white jumpsuits, donned protective mesh hoods and prepared to make the rounds on hundreds of thousands of honeybees.

"Is everybody ready?" Mayer asked.

Over the next two hours, the students examined more than a dozen hives, holding the wax comb up to the sun and searching for signs of disease that started wings, blood-soul larvae or minuscule mites that can spoil serious trouble for the nation's boss and, by extension, its food supply.

Honeybees are agricultural all-stars, pollinating roughly $10 billion west of a crop — more than 150 types of fruit, vegetables and nuts — every year.

They are also increasingly in danger, plagued by parasites and pathogens and weakened by clinical change, pesticides and malnutrition.

Mass die-offs have become commonplace, during the 2024 to 2025 season, the United States lost more than half of its managed honeybees colonies. Beekeepers are "fighting a war trying to keep their boss alive," said Bob Bissim, a commercial beekeeper who owns the Blue Ridge Honey Co. in Lakemont, Georgia.

The honeybee medicine program at the University of Georgia is part of a second but growing effort to underveterinarian in the fight. Many veterinary students are already required to master the biological basics of a range of domestic creatures, such as dogs, cats, horses, cows and pigs.

"I think the honeybee deserves similar status," said Mayer, a professor at the university's vet school.

If half of the nation's dogs — or cats or cows or horses — were to unexpectedly drop dead every winter, it would be an animal health emergency. "Yet is beekeeping, it's basically called 'Wednesday.' Mayer said: 'It's considered totally normal.'"

Mayer applies how sting and therapy on a parrot Dec. 18 at the school's veterinary teaching hospital.

'BASICALLY MICRO-LIVESTOCK'

Mayer, who grew up in a tiny agricultural town in southeastern Germany, spent much of his childhood around farm animals. But when he began veterinary school in Budapest, Hungary, he found himself driven to birds, lizards and the exotic creatures about which much less was known.

He also fell in love with honeybees. Unlike in the United States, many European vet schools made honeybee health part of the curriculum, presenting the inventories as "basically micro-livestock," Mayer said.

Honeybee medicine was offbeat enough to capture his attention. "I also thought that's super romantic, having your own hero, making your own honey," Mayer said.

And in the early 2000s, after he took a job as an exotic animal vet in the United States, he got a few hives of his own.

By then, it was clear that honey-

Mayer, seen near the University of Georgia's aprazy in 2025, helped create a program in honeybee medicine at its College of Veterinary Medicine.

bees were facing serious threats. Varroa destructor, an invasive, parasitic mite that feeds on living bees, was at the top of the list. But dozens of dangers lurched: wax moths, hive beetles, digestion-disrupting fungi, viruses that caused parodyne or wing deformities, bacteria that could wipe out all of a colony's young.

For years, American beekeepers managed outbreaks mostly on their own, diagnosing many diseases visually and then administering their preferred treatments. The fact that beekeepers could buy antibiotics over the counter, without consulting a veterinarian, helped enable their off-sufficiency.

But in 2017, small concern about the rise of antibiotic-resistant microbes, federal regulators tightened access to antibiotics, buddets, beekeepers who wanted to use their drugs needed veterinarians.

There was just one problem. "In the U.S., we weren't well trained for taking care of honeybees," said Dr. Tracy Renate, a veterinarian at

Grove City College in Pennsylvania who took a adhesiac in Europe to learn more.

Since 2017, several professional organizations, including a newly formed Honey Bee Veterinary Consortium, have been trying to bring practicing vets up to speed, creating continuing education courses and special certifications. Interest in the subject has been growing, experts said.

But the knowledge gap is large. In one survey conducted in 2023 and 2024, 74% of veterinarians said they did not know how to vets; honeybee prescriptions, 49% indicated that they would be unable to identify honeybee diseases.

No some veterinary schools have also been working to give the next generation of vets a better grounding in here.

During the vets, cates in a multi-nerded because it's so hard for the boys and the beekeepers right now," said Meghan Milbrah, who helped establish, and now leads, a honeybee medicine program at Michigan

State University and was an author of the vet survey. "We just really need all hands-on deals."

MINDING THE HIVES

At the University of Georgia, Mayer figured that he was well positioned to help vet students get a handle on honeybees. After the FDA rule change, he said he asked himself, "Well, why does I just continue my hobby, the beekeeping, with my job?"

He teamed up with colleagues at the university's agriculture school, which was already home to a reported bee lab and beekeeper certification program. Together, they created a program in honeybee medicine, which now includes zine club, zine treatment crew and a three-week doctors rotation.

Madison Morgan, a fourth-year vet student from Aamoli, Georgia, surprised herself by signing up by all of it. She had arrived at school with no particular interest in bees. "They were not on my radar in the slightest," she continued.

But in some ways, bees challenge a central issue of veterinary medicine, in which the life of each individual animal matters. "We all love animals, and we're like, 'Oh, we want to save each and every one,'" Morgan said.

That approach makes little sense for honeybees, which have life spans that can be measured in weeks and can survive only as part of a larger colony (classes are often described as "superorganisms," with the bees working collectively to perform some basic biological functions.

In in honeybee medicine, the bee is not the patient, the hive is. The vet school's teaching aprazy had 13 of them, each housed in a tower of stachelments that grew taller as the colony expanded.

HOLISTIC HEALTH

On the breezy Sunday morning in April, the inspections did turn up two Varroa mites, which was no cause for panic. The mites have become so widespread that it's not unusual to find a bee at a time; treatment would not be required unless the mite proclaims one.

Although Varroa can bring down even the strongest hive, healthy, well-fed colonies can keep some pests and pathogens "in check" on their own, half a new Bartlett, who leads research at the University of Georgia's health and helped create the honeybee medicine program.

"But if we ran out of good food for them, because we've seen losses of pollinator habitat," he added, "and we're poisoning them with all these insecticides and fungicides and other agrochemicals that we know inhibit their immune system, then you can get these huge outbreaks."

So the program encouraged students to blend animals and shoot hive health, teaching them about the nutritional principles and environmental conditions that could protect bees — and beekeepers — from large-scale losses.

"If you get called out to an apury," Mayer said, "you don't want to be that guy that just drives around in a native wagon and writes a prescription and says, 'No you late.'"

Why it's good to spend time in the office

Employers may enjoy the benefits of remote work, but an increasing number of employees are working in the people back in the office more. Some are using incentives to emphasize the importance of spending time in person with fellow employees.

Bills, an AI starting in New York, has taken it a step further by offering employees $18,000 to live close to the office. According to an interview with Business Insider, co-founder Sebastian Jimenez has found that having people live near the office makes it easier to spend time there – and he's been happy with the results. (Employees who live within a 10-minute hike take of the headquarters as eligible.)

Of course, part of the issue is that Bills's offices are in a steady Brooklyn neighborhood. Adult means having a carpenters, and the company's subsidy helps more people who want to live in the next office the rent.

But many companies are trying to figure out how to overstate employees' treatment to returning to the office. Nicholas Bloom, in a paper he wrote for Stanford's Institute for Economic Policy Research, dubbed in the "Visual Resistance." Even when asked to return, employees seem to be taking their time or at least putting in minimal effort to meet the company's goals for inpatient work.

And to come soon, it's understandable that employees who've gotten used to the benefit of working from their dog their feet. They enjoy living without a comment and spending more time with their families.

But in the long term, companies are discovering many downsides as well. It's harder to integrate new and especially youngest employees into the company culture. Two have been increased of interaction between employees, and when you are remote, you loss out on the equipment and enjoy that can lead to new ideas and build stronger relationships.

It also appears that working remotely can hurt the business, so it's widely published in Nature magazine found that "virtual communication paths create a idea generation." According to Melanie S. Brockx and Jonathan Laver, the authors of the paper, "videoconferencing hampers idea generation because it focuses communication on a nature, which prompts a narrower cognitive focus."

These who work remotely also tend to develop too early with their immediate team. This means fewer connections

between teams, and it's more difficult to spread knowledge that supports innovation. According to a Microsoft analysis, the rise of remote work meant that groups became more mixed and that there were fewer connections between groups.

Perhaps most critically, companies that rely heavily on remote work lose their ability to train the next generation of leaders. There is an apprenticeship aspect to any job designed at younger people. They may have some skills to start, but quite a bit of learning is done by watching others at the company. They base people with on the phone communicate with other employees as video problems. That aspect of training is very difficult to display on its screens. Companies that want to develop a pipeline for their real knowledge team need people to learn in an office environment.

In-Press Benefit

Of course, it's not just the company that benefits from having people must in person. Employees will find it

aware to advance in their common when they can spend more time in-person networking. People are neutral about AI taking their jobs, but these human skills that set you apart are aware to show off when you interact in person.

A report this year by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York found that remote work has caused a range of problems in younger workers, while a National Bureau of Economic Research paper suggests that younger workers get less feedback and are less likely to advance at companies where remote work is common.

The NBER page also found that software engineers who worked sitting next to fellow employees get 1.8 percent more feedback and one the quality of their work improves. The happen game came from "less toward and younger employees."

So you're convinced that you should spend more time at the office to help your career. But what if nobody else is there?

Signs your job may be at risk

Nobody likes to think about losing their job. You'd hope that if you are performing well, you don't have anything to worry about. But when a company is forced to lay off employees, it often means even a company's job. The world's world may be at par. With new technologies changing the way many companies do business, there's growing anxiety among workers that their problems could be eliminated at any time.

What their fear may be overstated, such feelings are undeniably real.

If I claim the question: How do you know if your job is unsafe? Here are some things to consider when you start to get the feeling that your job may be in danger.

• Communication from above becomes less frequent: It's so fun for managers to have to listen around difficult decisions when communicating with employees. So it's no surprise they often meant to scheduling fewer meetings or simply checking in lists with their employees to avoid difficult conversations. If your regularly scheduled feedback ends, or if there's suddenly less guidance from your manager, you may want to schedule a talk to find out what's causing the lack of communication.

• You're left out of the loop: If you find yourself unable the decision-making structure, that could mean that the company is trying to become more efficient with people who are not able to also be a sign that they no longer need your input on decisions, since you won't ultimately be involved in the process.

• New projects aren't assigned to you

You want people coming to you with long-term work that shows they believe in your skills and expect you to be apart of the company in the future. If it seems that people are looking up, alone and that you aren't being assigned the normal workload, that's a bad sign for your future there.

• The company isn't doing well: Employees can typically set when problems are on the horizon. If they're being asked to school as expenses, sales are down, travel is eliminated or work is sparse, you tend to use it. However, sometimes an individual disbelieved may be as busy as ever in a struggling company. Read your industry trades and follow business publications to try to get more information on the state of your company if you fear things are going the wrong way.

• Other employees are leaving: If you aren't the only one seeing the signs, chances are you'll start to see an excess of employees.

• You have new management: When new managers or owners take over, they tend to put their own ideas into place, and that could mean changes to the current employees.

• You are being micromanaged: If your quality of work is still strong, but you feel as if you're being watched more closely than ever, it could be that the management team is looking for reasons to let people go. Don't give them a reason for this. If you want to keep your job, But it may be time to start looking for a new one.

The cost of parks

The National Recreation and Parks Association, a nonprofit for professionals in the field, conducts an annual survey of park districts and other governmental bodies that oversee the nation's park systems. It offers an interesting insight into how America's parks are organized and funded. In its 2026 Agency Performance review, released earlier this summer, it highlights those statistics about the country's parks.

• The typical park district offers one park for every 2,437 residents and manages 10 acres of parkland per 1,000 residents.

• More than 96 percent of park agencies provide playgrounds. Other popular amenities include basketball courts (67 percent), baseball/softball diamonds (77 percent), dog parks (71 percent), splash pads (56 percent) and pickleball courts (30 percent).

• The average park district manages 19 miles of trails and offers about 500 different programs annually. They hire

about 9 full-time employees per 10,000 residents.

• The typical agency has an annual operating budget of $7.9 million, but in reality, the budget varies greatly by the rate of the park district. Those with jurisdictions under 20,000 spend about $1.8 million per year on average, while larger park districts, with a jurisdiction of more than 500,000 people, spend about $50 million per year.

• But per capita, the smallest districts spend the recent $135.21 per person for those with less than 20,000 residents. Those with more than 500,000 residents spend $55.40 per person on average.

• While the majority of a park district's revenue comes from taxes, an average of 26 percent of revenue comes from user fees. In New England, 44 percent of its income is generated from programming and user fees, while in the South, that figure is only 19 percent.

Laying the foundation

Chicago State builds its inaugural DI football program behind a lot of energy — and ambition

By Colleen Kane CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Chicago State football players in green and white careers headed on issues toward the sideline of their turf practice field, which are painted in the outfield of the Coogars baseball stadium.

Their destination was Chicago State President Zabbaynaka 'Z' Scott, who was watching their Wednesday morning training camp practice on the Rowland campus alongside athletic director Monique Carroll. As the players reached Scott, they broke out in celebration, jumping and dancing and chanting "Happy Birthday!"

Some offered Scott fun bumps and then headed back to work toward a milestone moment in Chicago State history that is just three weeks away.

When Carroll made a little inspiration in the Coogars' torrid march to fielding on NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision program, she watches the

players, who speak with pride about laying the foundation for the only DI team within Chicago.

"To see how much it means to them, as an AFL that keeps me going every day," Carroll said. "I'm not here to get a little motivation, feed off their energy."

It has taken a whole lot of energy — and ambition — for Chicago State to get within striking distance of in season opener against Roosevelt on Aug. 29 at ScotGoth Stadium in Bridgeview, the beginning of an 18-game slate for the program's inaugural team.

Chicago State, a public, predominantly Black university on Chicago's By South Side, first announced its exploration of a football team in 2023. The university then listed coach Bobby Rome II to be the face of the program in April 2025 as the athletic department worked to fundraise the $4 million it needed in the first year of the startup program. The university board officially approved the team

Guillen emotional at number retirement

Paul Sullivan IN THE ROAD OF THE NEWS

Ozzie Guillén was deemed too skinny to become an everyday major league davetings, but a Chicago White Sox scout named Jerry Krause saw something to him. Guillén wound up as the rookie of the year and a three-time All-Star with a 16-year playing career.

Guillén was considered too crazy to become a major league manager, but a White Sox general manager named Ken Williams saw something to him, and two years into the job in 2005. Guillén became the first man to guide the Sox to a championship since 1947.

Guillén's English was thought

too unintelligible to become a baseball analyst on an American TV station, but an NBC Sports Chicago executive named Kevin Cross saw something in him, and the Venezuelan-born Guillén became one of the game's most entertaining and artistic studio analysts.

The narrative was always the same.

But Guillén succeeded in every new challenge, becoming one of the most popular personalities in the history of Chicago sports.

Guillén's No. 13 was retired by the White Sox on Saturday

in a program ceremony at Sox Park, with family and former teammates, players and coaches on hand to salute him. A packed house also showed up for the ceremony as he became the 18th former player — and first manager — to have his number retired and placed between Luis Aparicio (No. 11) and Paul Kimenko (No. 14).

It was a long time coming, and something he prophetically spoke about in spring training in 1994, when he told the Tribunals Alan Solomon: "Sometimes I

Lewis becomes latest DB to leave injured

By Brad Biggs and Sean Hammond CHICAGO TRIBUNE

The Bears replenished depth in the secondary before practice Saturday morning at Halas Hall, but the holes are rougheed just as quickly as the team like vacancies.

Cam Lewis, who has spent the majority of training camp with the starting unit either alongside first-round pick Dillon Thorseman at safety or playing the dot cornerback position, was taken by cart back to the building from PaEd 4 after a year but plays in an end-of-game scenario near the end of practice.

Lewis shadowed wide receiver Renie O'Kane as quarterback Cobb Williams rolled out of the pocket to his left and made a diving play to break up the throw on third-and-a-but came up limping with a right foot at ankle injury. Because Feel 4 is the farthest from the facility, it's not surprising, Lewis was temporarily cart. It doesn't necessarily trigger an ominous outlook.

Missing Saturday's practice were racket cornerback Kylie Gordon (cull?) and safety Elijah Hicks (dust). They're both still on the physically unable to perform Sat. When Lewis moved to safety after safety Cathy Bryant (off knee) was injured Monday, that opened a spot for Lester Jones at night with the starters.

Shaw encouraged by injury progress

But utility man is still weeks away from return

By Meghan Montanuro CHICAGO TRIBUNE

KANSAS CITY - What initially seemed to be an injury that would require a minimum stint on the island that has turned into a week-long recovery for Chicago Cubs utility minor Matt Shaw.

Address for the 12-years June 29 with Aishkandi/wrist injury, Shaw remains weeks away from returning, manager Craig Counsell said this weekend.

The 12-years period was a 9 year slow progress - it's slower than we would like and Shaw Matt would like? Counsell said: "But it's going to the right direction, just a moment also, when we would have lapsed and thought. And so we've just got to be a little patient and not paid it to a place that does something to the negative, so that's just where we're it!"

Shaw has been getting to progress week off over the diamond, including before Saturday's game at Southman Stadium where he fielded grounders at multiple positions from bench over the New Faldery and coach Jonathan Metz.

"I've been feeling awesome,"

Shaw told the Tribune on Saturday. "The last few days have been really, really solid, so that part of it has been great for sure. The mental grind, I mean, it's just one of those things where I got a little bit of an opportunity to make sure that I'm really at second base. But I'm ready at first base, that I'm not in all the outfield spots and third base as well!"

The main issue still stems from Shaw's ability to swing a hot with our issue. He's been able to swing a little bit harder every day, but the Cubs are being cautious about pushing Shaw too much.

"We've still weeks away. I mean, he's not swinging a hot at full speed," Counsell said. "We've missed enough games where there's a significant rehab stint here."

The timing of Shaw's injury was unfortunate. Counsell had been making an effort to get him into the lineup. In his 10 games prior to sustaining the injury June 29, Shaw posted a 250 average, 160 on-base percentage and 307.1979 with two triples, one home run, eight RBA and 10 runs scored. Over the course of the season, Shaw has appeared in only 10 games - starting 32 - while bogging 147 plus appearances.

Shaw said the biggest issue with his wrist happens when he's turning the barrel of the hot, explain-

ing that the twisting motion is what bothers the area the most, especially when he would hit a foul ball. He's been encouraged by how much his hand/wrist has improved in the last week or two. There's an added challenging element of never having endured this type of injury before.

"You're kind of not sure what to expect," Shaw said. "It seemed like such a small thing. I thought it'd take a week or two to lead, obviously that hasn't been the case, so I'm just being patient."

The trade deadline presented uncertainty for Shaw, too.

The 24-year-old's positioned flexibility has been valuable to the Cubs, particularly his ability to play in the corner outfield spots. Pedro

Ramirez's emergence and their improved organizational depth among positive players potentially made Shaw more expandable in the lead-up to the Aug. 1 trade deadline. Even though Shaw is on the IL, the Cubs still could have moved him in a day.

Instead, Shaw no longer has to wonder if his final two months would be spent in a new organization.

"It's always better when that's behind you," Shaw said. "It's easier when you don't have to worry about if you're going to be going somewhere, packing up all your stuff, having your teammates, things like that. We definitely better getting through the trade deadline, for sure."

WHITE SOX

Sox calling up top pitching prospects

By LaMund Pope CHICAGO TRIBUNE

The White Sox are calling up two of their top pitching prospects in Ragon Smith and Tanner McDougal, a source confirmed to the Tribune last Friday.

Smith, the team's 2024 first-round pick, has a 4.32 ERA in 20 outings (14 starts) for Triple-A Charlotte. The lefty is ranked the No. 2 prospect in the Sox system, according to MLB.com. Smith has been getting work as a reliever recently.

Smith, 22, has a 148 ERA in 43 corner minor-league outings (37 starts) over three seasons in the Sox system.

McDougal, 23, also has been getting work out of the bullpen. The right-hander has spent a bulk of his 2019 season with the Knights, everything in 146 ERA in 51 appearances (64 starts). MLB.com ranks McDougal as the No. 4 prospect in the Sox system.

A fifth-round pick in 2021, McDougal has a 4.61 corner ERA in 94 outings (81 starts) over five minor-league seasons in the Sox system.

dream about my number being retired. Believe me. Sometimes I think of what I'm going to say to the fans and the people there."

Thank you years later, on a beautiful Saturday on the South Side, it happened.

Guilinx said no news conference here this afternoon that he worked his chance had passed, and had his wife, this, to forget about it.

"Always in that conversation I have my wife say, 'Be patient, it will come, it will happen,'" he said. "I was like, 'C'man, they're going to wait for me to do.'"

Returned and off, and Guilinx finally had his moment. A long standing ovation and chants of "Do, Do, Or, Or," refused through, out the ballpark, and he teamed up where talking about his family and Son fans.

It's been a long and winding journey, but Guilinx said he knew as a player that he would one day manage.

"Yes, I was a better manager than the guy who was managing," he said. "Let's be honest."

Guilinx was always managing in his head at shortstop. He said he never thought it would be with the fans, however, and finished Williams with the team. Jerry Remedof for the opportunity.

"I knew there were a lot of ups and downs, hate and love," Guilinx said. "Beautiful, nice but ugly. But we got it done. I think I did everything in my power in my life to make the White Sox team win every day. I really feel proud and pleased because every time I was managing this ballclub. Kenny Williams was thinking about winning. And Jerry was thinking about winning."

"As a manager you appreciate that, at least we're on the same page. And obviously we don't win every year, we had some tough times. We had an ugly summer here in Chicago between Kenny and myself, as you appeal know, but thanks to Kenny Williams. I was managing here with the Chicago White Sox."

Rising Guilinx was a lot of a risk at the time. He was always a clubhouse one up, and when I covered the Sox in the 1990s he was part of a group of players who weren't afraid to specify much their manager, Terry Remington.

"By the way, it was Terry Phillips, who was the head coach, Tania, fall along and you will be the manager of the year, get out of here," he said with a laugh.

Guilinx also learned what not to do, and convinced Williams

he would be a different kind of manager who held players accountable and had fun along the way.

"We knew he had the knowledge and the gamesmanship, but

there was the good details of his and we thought that maybe no one would take him seriously," Williams said after giving him a two-year deal in 2016. Guilinx and Williams later

were through a team division, as happens when two clubbers men with large ups or downs accept the possibility he was wrong and the other one was right. Guilinx went on to manage the Miami

Marlins, which ended after one money year, it continued for made praising Fidel Castro acquired some of the Cuban community in Miami, and after Guilinx was fired he never got a major-league management job again.

But that turned out to be a blessing in disguise. It first allows out of his comfort zone and made him try something new. His new job as a breach art andlet united him perfectly. Guilinx pulls no punches when discussing box players, managers or even his media, telling us we've "soft."

"I'm always going to be honest with the fans," he said. "That to me is the No. 1 thing. My job is to tell the fans what I see. I might be wrong, I might be right. But that's the best thing."

Guilinx loves to talk, for better or worse. "Once made to FITC," former shortstop Tim Anderson once posted on social media after hot game, the team didn't. McCann on the NBC Chicago Sports postgame show, Guilinx was suspended once for posting about an up-time during the game, and he said to take inventory training in 2006 for insulting a longtime media antagonist.

FEVEN 90, SKY 86

Carrington's ejection undercuts Sky

By Julia Pree CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Sky guard Dickens Carrington blamed the Indiana Fever on social media after being ejected from Saturday 9:00-10:00 on strike United Center for a hard foul on Sophos Cunningham.

The foul occurred with two minutes remaining in the first quarter when Carrington chased down Cunningham from behind on a breakaway levee. Carrington and co-cocted with the full when she reaped down, letting Cunningham in the face with her forearms and knocking her to the ground. Cunningham was restrained by summons Malachi Timpson after the play while exchanging words with Carrington.

The referees immediately assessed a flagrant foul to Carrington. After review, the foul was signaled to a flagrant 2, which resulted in Carrington's ejection from the game. Although Cunningham made contact with Carrington during the brief scuffle after the play, she was not assessed a technical final.

Cunningham made the ensuing flagrant free throw and play constrained normally. But the Sky who were leading when the foul occurred, couldn't rebound from the loss of Carrington, who scored eight points in fever than four minutes before her ejection. Cunningham finished with three points in 24 minutes.

Meanwhile, Carrington took to social media from the locker room to criticize the ejection, being off-pent on Thrash that read "white privilege" in all capital letters and tagged the Indiana Fever's office of account. Carrington posted on X, formerly known as Trotten, during the second half, sharing the date of the name: next-marchup – Aug 23 – with a similar face result.

Coach Tyler March said he was not aware of either post immediately following the game.

Cunningham and the Fever drew headlines in recent words due to the guard's outspokements on issues regarding the inclusion of a responder atfisties in sports. Both March and veteran guard Rachel Bonham said the Sky did not discuss the topic as the build-up to Saturday's game and did not ascribe Carrington's

foul or the ensuing conflict to off-the-court issues.

"We're fighting for our lives to try to make the playoffs," March said. "Dickens is a passionate player, just like most of our players on our team. Obviously you want to protect the safety of all players, but I think when it pertains to this game individually, we didn't come into this one with any more or less issue than we've had the last two since the All-Star break. You hope that Sophos's OK and that nobody's won't (I noticed, I don't think there is all issues)."

Billed as a highlight for the 1980s, "Broke Work," the teams maintained a contentious edge for the remainder of the game.

Bever guard Carlile Clark and head coach Stephanie White received technical both in the third

quarter, which allowed the Sky to cut the Fever's lead to five points. Clark's technical lead was her eighth of the season, triggering an automatic one-game suspension due to accumulation. Sky guard Natasha Cloud also earned a technical lead for arguing a bad form the bench in the fourth quarter.

After falling into multiple double-digit deficits, the Sky managed to cut the lead to a single possession in the clutch, but could not find a final answer to pull ahead Saturday's game. It's really too bad. Chicago's eighth consecutive loss to the Fever.

With a crowd of 16,000 fans, it was the fourth scheduled regular season game the Sky has placed at the United Center in anticipation of drawing a larger audience. The Sky are now 9-4 in those games.

BEARS

from Page 11

Xavier Woods on Friday to fill the roster space created when cornucers had Dallas Flowers was placed on injured reserve. This doesn't look like a situation where the team signed "Winds, a safety, to replace Flowers and help get them through the root of camp.

Woods' arrival given the Bears an experienced option to evaluate. On Monday, he went through individual drills only as he gets a crash course on the planback. The 10-year-old played in 11 games with 10 teams last season for the Tennessee Pirates. Woods has also played for the Carolina Panthers, Minnesota Vikings and Dallas Cowboys.

"He's a bold down-the-fort guy at this point," tested a veteran personnel man with a man Woods played for previously "Really smart Good locker room guy."

That could be precisely what delusions can indicate Thomas Allen spent. He's would probably be the first choice to replace Bryant, but he hasn't been available. With Lewis down, the Bears would be in a rough spot if they have another frontline player in the secondary jet injured. Starting comeback before Johnson, who raised 6 rounds from 6/2025, has boozoon the field for every practice.

Jujures open opportunities for others and rookie fourth-round draft pick MGM. Mohammed was the choice in mind; comeback with the starters. He flashed throughout practice, defend on a ball at the start of a team period and nearly intercepted Williams over the middle.

LUTHER BURDEN III EXTERIARY

Burden lined up against Enrique Stevenson during 1-0-01 drills back. His record was 2nd for a cornerback. Caleb Williams toward a past-10-0 at the back corner of the end zone, and Burden and Stevenson both jumped in the air. The two got rough-up in three were jockeying for position and last and held by the 1-0-0 and last 2-0-0 on a single. Stevenson had all on his backside, 1-0-0, a share of past and run back in hand on and his lower back. Burden came up for some depth. Both down were a better quarterback in hand on. Burden eventually limped off with a raiders and did not return to practice. Stevenson walked it off and took a few extra minutes before he went back. The Stevenson's back seemed to be a slight hit in their hit down against the remainder of practice – he walked off slowly another time – but he stayed in for the remainder of practice.

CALEB WILLIAMS WATCH

With Burden, sidelined, it was Roma Odunne who made an impressive catch in the back of the mid zone, just toward the opening to cap off a situational period.

There were 11 seconds left in the second quarter of a tie game and the first team offense faced a final and goal from the 10-yard line. Williams initially couldn't find anyone open, but he hung in the pocket by slowly before zipping a fast-ditch effort toward Odunne. The ball hit through a tight window between multiple defenders and somehow found the outstretched arms of Odunne for a 10-yard touchdown.

That was the final play of practice and it gave the fans something to cheer about before heading for the start. Of the three situational drills the first team offense did to cap off practice, that was the only one on which it scored.

The first one started back on the 45-yard line with 31 seconds

on the clock in the fourth quarter. Williams completed a short pastry. Kalil Raymond on first down. On second down, there appeared to be a misnomination when the 10-yard Odunne and Williams. Williams lofted a pass deep, but Odunne pulled up short.

On third down, cornerback. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team. The team was a good team.

In the same situation, Tyson Bagnell led the second-team offense to touchdown, capped by a 22-yard pass to second-year receiver Adalat Walker. Walker broke out for "John Hilds" touchdown celebration by defended after his touchdown against Green Bay last year.

In another situation, Williams couldn't connect with a receiver

on fourth-and-6 from the 13-yard line. Thomas and Raymond were in the area but neither could lead it in.

On 9-10, in the 2nd zone, Williams connected twice with 2nd and Colman Loveland for touchdowns. One came against Thorsman. On the other, Colman rose high in the air to catch one-over safety! Can Level in the back corner of the 2nd zone.

PLAYERS THE SPOTLIGHT: KICKER CARIO SANTOS

The Bears have been rolling with just one kicker through training camp and that's because they have faith in Cairo Santos. He's been sharp on days the team has failed and went to 6-0-0 at Thursale, hitting two four shots by some one from 10 and another from 67.

"We continue to work on our grouping," special teams coordinator Richard Highower said. "We always talk about a clutter. It's good

when it goes through the goal point but we want them all cluttered and he does. That helps us with ball striking. Not making one inside the post here and then one inside the post (on the opposite side).

"So, that's what we're working on going better if you be made all six of them and I like the fact that he's a professional and he's not just happy with making six. He wants his grouping and his cluttering to be right together. He's in a good spot."

Santos has made 41 of 55 field goal attempts (83.6%) over the previous two seasons. In 2022 and 2023 combined, he was 16 of 41 (91.8%) and the veteran would like to get into the 90s again this season or close to it.

Highower said earlier in camp he thought that perhaps the 34-year-old's right leg is a little stronger. That remains to be seen, but the 50-renders cleared with extra space and the ball has been coming off his foot well in practice.

"I think the K-Roll situation has helped all his lives across the league with (dameso)?" Highower said. "But he has been doing a lot of strength training. He's down, man. You know he beats the noise. He wants to kick a long one."

QUOTE OF NUTE

Wide receiver Jukoba Walker was the challenging player in training camp last summer and slated its provisions to earn a spot on the 53-man roster. He didn't get a lot of chances during the season but took advantage of those he did. It was Walker who caught the 6-yard touchdown pass from Caleb Williams on fourth down to tie the game against the Green Bay Packers with 24-0-0 and remaining on 2nd, 20-0-0 at the end.

The Bears are hoping to get more from Walker the season, but they've hooked up the country signing Kalil Raymond in five games and using a third-round draft pick on Zavon Thomas. In other words, I might be just as challenging to carry out playing time this season even with El Masey game.

"I love Raymond," Walker said. "I want them give to succeed so much as I want to succeed. We all want everybody to gain his great. Every body is saying, 'Comprehend Competition.' There's always going to be competition no matter what. We just look forward to that and try to push each other to be better. Obviously, I am sure not better. I'm made best better. Zavon, all of us. If they have a question and I know it, I'm not going to go along it. I'm going to follow know. We just help each other out."

Having their Canton moment

Brees, Fitzgerald, Kuechly, Vinatieri, Craig enter Hall

Bob Masold ASSOCIATED PRESS

CANTON, Ohio — Drew Brees stood an stage next to his house in bed, at front of Who first Brees, and took his place in the Pro Bowl hall Hall of Fame.

Getting here had three times in the NFL helped him get there.

"Many of his}tentheirism, one of the great-ones he has and has come to over coach the game and who feelings here is Canton," Brees said himself. "Many was not bigger than. He would tell me all the time, even as he leached me three times and made me fight for my job every year with two greats, Doug Flute and Philip Rimm."

"The first two times I got benefited, I deserved it. The third time, I still don't think I deserved it. Coach. But nevertheless, it hit more than a few, it forced me to access a place in my mind and hope that I had not yet been."

Brees eventually left the San Diego Chargers and later after New Orleans team, where he won a Super Bowl playing for coach from Purton and his state one of the most prolific players in the history of the delight of fans who filled the Supershow with chants of "Who dad?"

Pursu to do time off from coaching Denver to American Broncos stage.

The first two times I was a player (with passing 100,200) and touchdown passes (375) in Sugar State in 1968 and the Tom Brady. He was a first-fedder selection and joined a clan that includes Lany Fitzgerald, Luke Kuechly, Adam Vinatieri and Roger Craig.

LARRY FITZGERALD

Fitzgerald was the first player to have his house that revealed on stage Saturday at Tom Boston Stadium.

The 11-time Pro Bowl wide receiver, who played his entire 37-year career for the Cardinals, was introduced by the oldest of his three sons, Doris.

The finished 9th speech with a message to his hero that I supple able to everyone.

"Don't just ignore everything: for yourself," Fitzgerald said. "Help other people put me in, too. That's the part of this story that matters the most. Not the likes. Not the fame. But the

people you travel with. The values you upheld. In the end, it's not just about the excellence. It's about the people who look get true there."

Being in the 21st, it was 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016. 2016.

Fitzgerald is second on the NFL's career list in acceptance (1,812) and receiving invite (17,692). His 121 touchdown can be an oath.

ADAM VINASTER

Vinatieri became only the third full-time placekicker to be inducted into the Hall, yan-

ing San Steercal and Morris Anderson.

He may have a new career in comedic.

Vinatieri drew plenty of laughs and cheers with a blue, about Bill Rothshick, Patrick Manning and Tom Brady.

Vinatieri retired with NFL records of 2,675 career points and 349 field goals. Only George Blanda (30) and Anderson (20) had longer NFL career in San Vinatieri's 24 seasons.

Colin swings Carles drove his class introduced Vinatieri, who won his fourth Super Bowl with Indianapolis after earning three championship rings in New England.

LUKE KUECHLY

At 10, Kuechly became the second-youngest player in the last 10s of the Hall. Chicago Broncos running back Gale Sayers was his wherley was subhead in 1977.

Introduced by his father, Tom Kuechly was inducted on the same field where he led 16. Xavier High School to a state championship in 2007.

Reason for his intense study habits, Kuechly was the same 68 Pro slushback in the 2012 AP Defensive Rockies of the Year and 2013 AP Defensive Player of the Year, during his eight-year career with the Carolina Panthers. Kuechly decided to retire in part to preserve his brain health after suffering several concussions.

ROGER CRAN

Craig, who revealed in a video speech that he has vascular dementia, became the first player in NFL history to have 1,000 yardcracking and 2,000 yardcracking in seasons. Only Marshall Paddl and Christian McCaffrey have done it more.

"You speak easy: what's like trying to prove you belong and one day you're told you to one of the all-time greats. Man, it's never thinking," Craig said.

COUGARS

from Page C

in December, and Rome said it has been 'a whirlwind!' from there as he built his staff and roster.

Carroll and Rome said putting the program together over the last year has required understanding as they've faced startup challenges. And it has required belief when others might doubt the viability of the venture.

"I'm so proud of this institution and the leadership of this institution and the leadership of this athlete, department, because this is the time it shows," Rome, 40, said. "When everyone said what we couldn't do, now we're actually out here doing it. This is the time it shows."

STARTUP NEEDS

Before Chicago State could even get to the on-field product, the university, which reported an enrollment of 2,469 students last fall, had to figure out the logistics that come with the influx of about 100 players.

That meant hosting equipment and uniforms but also coordinating admissions, food and housing for them. That meant figuring out massive new amounts of laundry. And it meant finding space for a group that lays to work, both at the classroom and on the field.

Carroll, who has a doctorate in education, said the athlete department hired consulting firms and she sought advice from other administrators and could be from previous companies.

"All of the things that when you've been playing football 10, 40, 100 years it's just sign aired and you don't think about it," Carroll said. "With us being a starting point in the coaching now we do all the I want even the T-Newcom when we hit the field behind a good program on the field."

Chicago State built a new weight room to accommodate more people and will open a bigger training room after his operation. They passed the football practice field on top of the half-ahead field, which was constructed in 2016. CFC dropped its baseball program in June 2020 and added more soccer manual.

The new program is coming down to have field goal posts, so the specialists go to an adjacent grass field that has them. For Carroll, those posts are a symbol of the challenges that come with building a new program.

"I don't believe in perfection, but I defended others in teaching me," Carroll said. "The field goal posts, 200 every 5th, we can just keep running over there to do it. It that really excellence! It has been challenging to manage my own expectations... That's the world's best team. What we really for today! What can we set until tomorrow?"

Another challenge was finding the right place to play.

Carroll said administrators would have liked to play close to campus on the fourth Side, and they reported a number of facilities, including some Chicago high school students.

But the athletic department wanted suites of the 2,000 students to hand the researcher its players so they didn't have to go straight from the base to the field. And it needed a big enough press box to accommodate college coaching staff and potential TV productions.

That made Southside Stadium in Bridgeview, the former home of the Chicago State's 2,000 Chicago All-Centers though it's 10 miles from campus. Carroll said they have an agreement for the 2020 season, and the plans to work on 2027 when a schedule is set.

Carroll said, like, and Rome, also worked in the 2,000 high school that the Coogars hope they 'align well with.

Chicago Broncos reported an independent before joining the Northeast Conference in football next season. The Coogars will play the first in the 2020 season. Maki Kennedy Christian and two other teams from the National Division College (NDC), Association. But the schedule also includes trips to TV March and 2nd more than, both ranked in the FCS processors top 25, measuring-stick-

type game that Carroll said can show alumni and donors what it takes is to great.

And if all, Carroll and Rome have continued finalizing for the program, a passion for Carroll as the continuous building relationship with potential supporters. Should the new football team so do, talk of an alumni breakfast do attended in the spring, and she is embracing the novelty of being a few-year team and the amounts that brings. They need to the financial backing to get the program off the ground.

"FCS football is a revenue generator," Carroll said. "We know once we get started, the money was going to be there. But we wanted to make sure we didn't overtax ourselves to fund the startup costs. Fund-raising was around the startup costs."

When Carroll and Rome met the his job interview, they spent an entire day — breakfast, lunch and dinner — postpone a 100-millionaire Chicago State football. Rome asked questions as he was informed about what he was engaging him. But he had previous experience that goes him an understanding of the job.

Rome, a former quarterback and fullback who was a teammate of Chicago Broncos, who has a chance at North Carolina, helped build a program at Far Eastern Federal University in Russia after her joining career. He also took over a broad coach at Florida Memorial when the team was in just its third season after a 42-year home.

He knew that building a program comes with his cap as many parties with them.

"A second there's already room for improvement, and you've got to have some place, from both has to have grass for each other," Rome said. "I have to be the one in the middle referencing the place and making sure that it goes both ways and it's fair. At the same time, we have to understand when there's got to be an expectation, when there's got to be a standard set."

BUILDING THE FOUNDATION

As Rome set onto being a nation and player in Chicago State, he wanted talent, obviously, but also people who understood what it meant to be a part of a startup.

In December, just before the transfer portal opened, Rome named Bobby Bliss and Jack Martinez (43-year-old, who both coached at Hampton, his offensive and defensive coordinators. He wanted to have a mechanistic place to transform the athlons know who they would be playing by, and he eventually built his staff to include nine assistants.

Then he set out to create his roster. "We wanted young men that did not mind coming in and running the foundation for a first-time football program," Rome said. "That takes a special type of young team, and also we wanted young men that fit the profile of what we've learned by these at Chicago State. We want good luck that can play football, that can handle business in the classroom but also understand the need to get there is a stepping stone for the university."

"We see building the foundation that's going to be standing for a long, long time. We find a lot of young man that is meant to be a part of that."

When wide receiver Anthony Val' Powell, who was a firsthand of Southern Illinois last season, talked with Rome in the winter about transferring, they talked about Powell's goals after football and the type of man he wants to be. And then called a heart the impact Powell's former Westinghouse and Detergent Park player, could have as a member of Chicago's only 193 football team.

Powell knew the idea that Chicago high schoolers don't have to travel hours away to play on each season.

"I really understand the foundation he wanted to be," Powell said. "It's bigger than us. I want to build it for the kids that want to come here as a couple of years."

Wide receiver Karyann Coleman, a Von Stucken graduate, and his commentators with the coaching staff were also about building a culture. Coleman worked through a broken cellphone and coaching staff change at two junior colleges and at Diving Center before returning home last season. He was working recently and working when he received an opportunity at NASA, Aulson in Elgin, where he had 15 catches for 239 yards.

Now, he said, it's a dream! 'I can't find age there.'

"They saw I had been through a lot of adversity and saw how I pushed through it, and they wanted that as a leader here, to help set that culture, push the other guys around me to keep people there more get hard," Coleman said. "You're going to get a lot, now I am adversity in life, but it's about how you push through that makes you sense."

Coleman and Powell both got on campus this winter, two of dead 40 players to active a semester and 2.

Coaches didn't hold traditional spring practices, focusing instead on lifting and conditioning and mental preparation, including meetings to go over the new schemes. Players also did their own on-field work so

they would be prepared when summer camp officially opened.

This month, Rome said the Coogars are holding competition at every position and will lift this play out through camp at their next the opener. That includes six quarterbacks in competition to start and 29 first-year players on a roster of around 40 players.

Coleman believes the biggest obstacle for the entirety now team is getting the players to tell.

"The difference is just figuring out how to get that chemistry together," Coleman said. "What you're on a team that's already had in the 2020 season, and that chemistry is the offseason. But our first time meeting was in the spring, so that we then we were really figurs building the team and setting that team foundation in the spring so when it came over to summer we've got that chemistry rolling."

Not every player can do the big of a difference, but the team's team is a good leader. Dickson Harris, who played the last two seasons at 2011 Late Star, said "it's still for itself." He and other players said they are trying to ignore outside leaders about the flat blood of success at Chicago State's first season.

Success is a startup is not ushered if. Last season, the University of Texas Bar-Donita Valley, located in Kibiblogy, Texas, went 9-5 in its inaugural season, the most wins ever for a first year FCS or Division I-AA team. But UTBGV and its coaches had a much longer on camp to its first season, including a summer and fall practice season in 2024.

"I laugh I'll be glad there's no natural sex on the ground, giving me the opportunity to win."

"We've got a lot of expectations," Harris said. "We're not trying to come out here and lose. A lot of people already have written us off. They always think we're going to have a bad season. We see all the comments. We just see that for institutions."

Carroll and she also has seen a motional home, noting "this was everybody's opportunity" at the Division I-level. As she has watched his preparation, she doesn't think he is taking the opportunity lightly and said he would not be so from power to the title.

Rome said there is still a lot of work to be done in just a few weeks to get ready but he's glad his players are embracing high expectations.

"I've heard from to come in and set the culture, set the standard of what they wanted this thing to be," Rome said. "They want to win right now. We want to win right now. The university deserves to win right now. The city of Chicago deserves to win right now."

Mother ignores own 'no politics'

rule when talking with daughter

R. Eric Thomas ASKING DIR.

Dear Eric: I'm a 38-year-old daughter to a 46-year-old father and an 83-year-old mother.

I love my parents dearly, but we have had no contact for nearly a year. I knew that at any time my father or mother could pass. This is the one in worse in my life — that I will lose one or both of my parents when we are in child.

My mother and I are polar opposite politically. I am open to any debate; however, my mother has single adults and to my parents' house: "No politics" So, I do not bring up politics.

Unfortunately, my mother refuses to adhere to her rule. She constantly brings up politics, yet when I attempt to robot, she shuts down and refuses to engage.

It is her way. Period. I know that my father aligns with me politically, but he "goes along to get along." My dad isn't going to divorce my mom at his advanced age.

I am at a loss. How can I reunite with my parents when my mother is so hateful to any view but her own?

No Politics.

Dear No-Politics: It seems that your mother's sign should come with an arrest. no politics except mass. Because that's really what she's communicating that she wants. This is her prerogative, and while it may not be pleasant, you don't have to engage.

You can set and hold the boundary that she says she wants but to which she won't adhere.

When she starts talking about politics, you can

either change the subject without contradicting or correcting, or you can say, "Mom, I don't want to talk about politics. I want to spend time with you and talk about us."

Now, this may not be what she really wants deep down. She may be itching her a debate.

If that's the case, it may help to set a time limit for your visits or choose neutral spaces, like a restaurant, or neutral activities, like a walking row.

She may not be able to or want to help herself, but if she finds that you won't take the bait, she may start fishing elsewhere.

Dear Eric: A retiree bridge group was formed more than 18 years ago with one person teaching several others how to play.

As people moved in and out of our area, the group expanded and changed over the years. The least home rations, and whoever wants to play on the game day lets the host know. Sometimes there are several tables playing at once depending on how much room the host has.

The health of one of the original members has been deteriorating over the past few years. Mentally they can no longer keep up with the rate of play most of us enjoy. Nobody really wants to play with that individual, and some people will not continue with the group as a result.

Those of us who want the group to continue are torn between enjoying this pastime and being compassionate for this individual. The problem is we don't know how to tell this person that we don't enjoy playing with them anymore.

Do you have any advice on how to gently tell this individual that they are no longer invited to play?

They are well-liked and are welcome to come and watch and socialize, but we

think this individual would be hurt by this suggestion and don't know who should have the conversation or how to broach the subject. We are really confused. — Game Change

Dear Game: There is a way to err on the side of compassion while still enjoying your time socializing and playing.

You're probably right to think that this individual would be hurt by being excluded from play without having any say just.

As you tested, the group has changed quite a lot since it was branded, one of the privileges of knowing and socializing with people for a long time is getting to walk with them as they change.

Of course, that change is not always easy, for them or for you.

Talk to this individual one-on-one and share what you've noticed about their capacity for playing and ask them if they've noticed the same thing.

It's possible that this person knows that they can't keep up and hasn't considered the possibility of coming just to watch and socialize.

Having a conversation about their experience will keep them from feeling disempowered and may open up new options.

It's also possible that this person in contact with the way they're playing now. That's their right, and it's hard to find a compassionate way to disavow them from a group of which they're an original member.

If other members don't want to play with this person, they can opt not to come or to join another table if there's enough players in attendance.

Whether training for run or real life, zoom in

Heidi Stevens BALANCING ACT

It's all fun and games until you have to run 10 miles. Alone, I'm 9100% humidity. And the life lessons you wore so proud of gloating a couple weeks ago start to feel less like little people of wisdom and more like little politics in your shoe, testing you more with each sweaty, exhausted step.

I'll back up. A few weeks ago, I committed to learning a new life lesson from each of my 16 weeks of marathon training. I shared my first five in an earlier column, hoping they'd examine with some of you since they aren't really about running as much as they've about perspective and persevering and gratitude.

Then the 10-mile training run arrived. And thanks to scheduling conflicts and family obligations, I had to tackle it without my daughter or our weekly training group.

After mile 5, when I decided to swear off running forever, and mile 7, when I stopped trusting, my ability to make good life choices, and mile 9, when I started fantasizing about a minor injury that would allow me to live out of this whole godferedest ordeal, the lesson finally hit me.

I was nursing my own back and bruised ego, thinking, "How in the world am I going to run 26 miles if I can't run 10?" when I remember a fleeing 30 years old and equally exhausted. Only that time I was holding a crying newborn and thinking, "How in the world am I going to comfort a teenager if I can't comfort a baby?"

And then I remembered what helped.

At some point, I realized I didn't have to comfort a teenager that day. I had to

comfort a baby that day. And by the time I had to comfort a teenager, I would know her better. I would know me better. I would have more practice, more confidence, more strength, more sleep, maybe.

And I decided my 10-mile training week's lesson in this. Zoom in.

Narrow your focus to the thing in front of you. Not the thing a day or week or 10 years from now. You will not be the same person in a day or a week or 10 years. You will have more practice, more confidence, more strength, more sleep, maybe.

I didn't need to run 26 miles that day. I needed to run 10. And I did. And by the time I have to run 26, I'll have more practice, more confidence, more strength, more sleep, maybe. I'll know me better.

I decided to run this by John Duffy, clinical psychologist and author of

"Parenting the New Teen in the Age of Anxiety." He's also training for the Chicago Marathon. He is, in fact, the reason I ran in 2023. ("You have to," he told me. "You'll have it. It will change your life." All true.)

I wanted to know if my zoom-in approach makes any sense, applied to real-life.

Tartar out he once it with clients all the time.

"I work with this college kid who thinks he has a gambling addiction," he told me. "We discovered over a little time that he's actually focused on the scarcity of money in his life."

By zooming in. "We broke it down," he said. "You're making about $5,000 this summer. That's what you need right now. It's plenty. Five years from now, you'll probably need more. And with your major and an internship or two, life is set up so you'll have

more. So let's just focus on what you need now."

Young people have a hard time zooming in, he said. They've been trained — maybe by their parents, maybe by their coaches, maybe by the culture — to think a setback is a sentence. A verdict. A point of no return.

"They need to hear, 'This is a process. We're making mistakes, and we're learning from them, and we're getting wiser as we go. It's a training plan.'"

Often he'll ask kids to talk about something they're good at. And often they'll struggle, thinking he's trying to said them down on a major. Thinking he's giving them an aptitude test.

"I have to say, Oh, we're not talking career," he said. "I want to hear about the guitar hanging in your room. Or how much you like to write fiction. I want to know what's remarkable

about you.' And I have yet to run into a kid who isn't remarkable."

Zoom in on that. This works for parents as well, who typically arrive in his office to an anxious state (He is, after all, a therapist.) Almost without fail, he tells them to zoom-in.

"Parent your kid for today," he said. "You don't have to prep for the whole big picture. Thinking way beyond today will drive up anxiety, and that trickles right down to your kid."

Their future matters. Your future matters. But you're both still in training. The future isn't here yet. And when it arrives, you'll both have more practice, more confidence, more strength, more sleep.

"That's what parenting is, right?" Duffy said. "It's training your kid to be a good human."

Some days are hard. You can't imagine how you'll do

an even harder one. But you will.

"A lot of kids — and parents — carry this narrative that they're supposed to be ideal, that things have to go perfectly," Duffy said. "I tell them, Oh, that is absolutely, 100 percent not going to happen. You can liberate yourself from that right now."

"And that's the beauty of it, right? It's OK to have a bad day," he said. "It's OK to rack up these little defeats, along with some victories. It's jagged, and it's supposed to be."

Because you're in training. And you'll get stronger as you go.

Old Ladies Against Underwater Garbage volunteers haul out junk with a kayak June 25 at Lovells Pond in Barnstable, Massachusetts. BILLY NICKEN/THE NEW YORK TIMES PHOTOS

Old Ladies Against Underwater Garbage has removed about 6,000 pounds of refuse from Cape Cod ponds

By Cara Buckley

THE NEW YORK TIMES

The pond looks question, reflecting the wispy clouds and limping blue of a summertime Cape Cod sky. The women gathered at its edge were not fooled.

They had scouted the pond months earlier and knew what was held in its depths. Hundreds of old beer cans and wine bottles cracked golf balls and cinder blocks, wooden pallets and long-forgotten garagines.

The women had prepared for this moment. Trained for it. Raised a swine tent. They set out into the water in life jackets and kayaks, smelada and masks. Not one of them was a day younger than 65.

The trash never stood a chance.

Over the course of the next hour, the Old Ladies Against Underwater Garbage hauled as much trash out of Lovells Pond in Barnstable, Massachusetts, as time and space allowed. They filled the storage compartments of their kayaks with it, strapped it onto your loops, balanced it across bows. A fishing pole, four of a white plastic lounge chair, A wooden pallet. A disintegrating carrier, their forcing it all back to land, the women marveled at the land.

"You're exhausted, you're maybe a little unshamed, you're filthy, and it's the best feeling," said Lisa Weiss, a retired high school math teacher said, at 65, the baby of the group.

The Old Ladies Against Underwater Garbage was started in 2018 by Susan Baur, now 86, a retired psychologist who lives in North Falmouth, Massachusetts. She'd been salvaging road are pieces of refuse while swimming the Cape's ponds for years, and refilling friends. The women formalized the effort and settled on a team. More women joined, a website was started and entry requirements set. Members had to be at least 14 and able to swim half a mile in under 30 minutes and free-dive to 8 feet.

Word spread. A photo of them running a toilet from a entry game went viral, television crew's trailed them, and, in 2024, "The Dover Burrysmen Show" donated $10,000 to their cases (the group is a nonprofit, the women are volunteers, and Baur said there's still $9,000 from that donated left). When the group's size threatened

to become ungainly, entry was capped. Today there are about 10 members and a waffler. A few recent joiners admitted to begging their way in.

To date, the women estimate they've hauled 6,000 pounds of trash out of Cape Cod's ponds.

"We are surrounded by so many really intractable problems, the water quality issues on Cape Cod are really serious, and the solutions have such a far-fore-200," said Maggie Megan, 72, who joined the group in 2022. "This is so tangible and immediate. We show up at the pond and swim, and we bring back a big pile of trash."

The group cleans about 20 ponds a year, and, by now, have the operation down to a science. Each pond is surveyed for garbage in advance, and,

before each dive, levels of harmful blue-green algae are tested. For the dive at Lovells Pond, the women were divided into three groups of divers and kankers, while chouch bear with flag a clipboard, a checklist and a map-resease logistics. The women wore swimsuits, water shoes, swim caps and wet nuts and send extra sunblock and hats. Shortly after noon, they set off into the pond.

Baur, in a smelad and mask, began swimming

slowly along the pond's perimeter, about 30 feet offshore, face trained downward, trailing bubbles. Every now and then, she would flip under water, butt up, and overflow with a piece of jute.

Over the next 40 minutes, the kayaks were steadily filled, with chunk of asphalt, a weighty curly on foot, a shiny two-by-four, and lots of old beer cans and wine bottles.

"The drinking is getting obscene around here," said Julia Benz, 69, one of the

Sometimes a muffled exclamation burbled up from a smelad as wildlife came into view — a painted turtle, a family of sunfish, game fish with mouths torn by fishbooks.

Members say the group has reshaped their lives. They've grown stronger, because they've had to, in order to haul up heavy refuse from the bottom of ponds and onto kayaks. They've bagged new 9 send-ships after relocating or

"I don't quilt, I don't crochet, that's not how I'm going to fit in as I age," Weiss said. "This fools you in a different way."

Babun Malavalin, 69, who has climbed Mount Kille manure twice, said that before joining the group, she'd better after afraid of ponds and their muck. Putting on a mask and snorkel and diving for garbage changed all that. "There's a whole underwater paradise in lakes and ponds," Malavalin said.

Baur said that the husbands of at least two members had thanked her. During her rush offers great stress relief and tends to have a subdermas effect on the moral back home. "You don't really want to live with unexplained ordnance, if you know what I mean," Baur said.

And, as leader, she's had to upwish her proclivity to get anxious and complain about physical discomforts, she said. "Now it's like, 'Suck it up, because they are watching.'" Baur said. "I'm going to show them that being old is OK."

The dive at Lovells Pond was deemed especially successful. The women estimated the evicted trash weighed 1,000 pounds, their biggest haul yet. Carefully, with gloves, they began to transport it, piece by piece and trailed fully trailed. But up a sloped pathway to the nearby roadside to be hauled to a dump.

"The joy that we feel in bringing it out of the water and knowing it is no longer there, as I always say, the turtles and the fish, they're all clapping, they're all thrilled that that is no longer in their home," said Diane Hammer, 70. "I mean, there's no better feeling."

MY PET WORLD

Redirect attention to stop cat from getting underfoot

By Cathy M. Rosenthal TRIBUNE CONTENT AGENCY

Dear Cathy: I love to a large farm in Virginia and over the years many feral cats and dogs have come to live here. This spring, a young and friendly feral cat showed up and, around 1, I felt it. I got him neutered, all his shots, and tick and fleeting tints. He now lives in my barn.

The problem is that he is too friendly. I am in my late 70s and am careful about preventing falls. Unfortunately, this fatty like to start you to do fast between or at least of my feet and legs, making me stumble. It is just a matter of time before he can lose me more on, and I kill.

Is there any way to touch him not to do this? — Army, Airforce, Virginia

Dear Annie: When a cat displays this kind of behavior, it's usually because he's seeking attention or interaction. Since he has learned to associate your art to/from something positive, he is trying to give it you the best way he knows how.

One of the safest ways to manage this is to redirect his attention before he

reaches your feet.

First, I recommend stopping for a moment when you first get outside or at the barn entrance before walking through your property, so you can see where he is. Second, carry a leather wand or another favorite toy with you, and wiggle it off to your side, so as he approaches, he will be more into minutes than your legs. You could also toss a few treats to your side as you walk. Redirecting his horse away from your legs gives him something appropriate to chase while allowing you to move safely.

Third, if he does weave between your legs, always stop until he is finished rather than trying to stop around him, which is affecting what falls occur. Cats usually lose interest once they realize you are not moving. This is also a good time to engage him with the toy or treats again.

Fourth, consider enriching his own measure with things to climb, scratch and explore. A study of two, she lives or even a few hay bales arranged at different heights can encourage him to spend more time climbing and observing than following you underfoot.

Dear Cathy: I am early read your response to Stacy from Cambridge, Massachusetts, about feline cardiomyopathy and wanted to share my experience.

My 6-year-old cat, Willow, was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy about six months ago after she seemed "off" Bloodwork led to an evaluation by a veterinary cardiologist, who confirmed the diagnosis. Willow resided taking oral medication, so my veterinarian prescribed a transdermal version that I apply to her car each morning. She also receives a cardiac support supplement, and

I'm happy to report that her recent bloodwork was stable. After more than 10 years of caring for cats, I've learned that quality of life is what matters most. This treatment plus keeps Willow comfortable, and that's what gives me peace of mind.

— Karen and "Willow," Whitehall, Pennsylvania

Dear Karen: Thank you for sharing Willow's story. Although the original question about feline cardiomyopathy appeared some time ago, your letter should remind readers that when a pet really isn't warm "off" whether they're sleeping more, hiding, eating differently or simply acting unlike themselves, the first step should always be a visit to the veterinarian.

I also appreciate you sharing your experience with transdermal medication. Many cats strongly object to taking pills, and for some, compounded transdermal formulations can be an excellent alternative. I am pleased to hear that Willow is doing well, and I hope her upcoming cardiac ultrasound brings me our aging news. Quality of life should always be at the heart of any treatment plan.

Dear Cathy: Regarding the fine eating palatococcalis puppy who swallows her kibble whole I suggest seeking the kibble for water, running it through a food processor, stuffing the food in a trout dispensing toy and freezing it. Our dog trainer suggested this. It works wonders for our writer English lab.

— Leslie, East Meadow, New York

Dear Leslie: Frozen food stuffed into a hollow rubber toy designed to hold food is an excellent way to slow down dogs that likely their meals. Instead of foods, the flavor is so weak, dogs must work to get the food out, which can make meal time last much longer.

After the day howls, snail, a treats, punch knobos, food-dispensing toys and even scathering kibble in the grass for a supervised "find it" game can affhelp dogs to eat at a healthier pace.

EX-ETIQUETTE

Co-parent looking to maintain kid's trust chooses not to share secret with ex

By Jann Blackstone TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Q: My ex is very angry I did not pass on a confidence that our child told me, but she asked me not to trust her dad. I want her to trust me, so I beat it a secret, but when her father found out, he hit the roof. Now he's angry, and she thinks it was not her confidence. What's go of ex-etiquette? A: There isn't a simple answer. It gets to the heart of one of the hardest parts of co-parenting. When does

protecting your child's trust conflict with your response, blitz to co-parent effectively?

The first question to ask your ad is: "Where need are I meeting?" And I protect my child, or am I protecting my role as the "favorite parent"?

Children often ask us to keep secrets because they're embarrassed, afraid of disappointing the other parent, worried about causing conflict or afraid of getting in trouble. While these feelings are under-

standable, agreeing to keep secrets from the other parent can unintentionally plus you in the middle. Before long, you become the genitourer of information, and co-parent resentment it sure to set in.

A better approach is to be honest from the beginning. Rather than promising secrecy, my something like, "I will always do my best to support your privacy, but if it's something that affects your safety or health, your dad needs to know so he can also keep you safe."

That response accomplishes two important things. First, it tells your child you are listening. Second, it sets realistic expectations. Trust is not built by keeping every secret. Trust is built by being predictable and truthful.

Not every confidence needs to be shared. If your child tells you she has a crash, a nervous about a school performance or confidence typical adolescent worries, then it usually no reason to report those

conversations to your co-parent. However, if your child shares information involving physical or emotional safety, substance use, self-harm, bullying, significant academic problems, medical concerns or anything that could affect parenting decisions, that information belongs to both parents. In these situations, your responsibility as a parent outweighs your child's request for secrecy. Here's a good tale of thumb: Your child should

never know more about an important family issue than their other parent. That's too much responsibility for a child to carry and can easily pull them into the middle of the two people they love most.

The goal is to create a family culture where children know they can come to other parent, confident that both parents will act in their best interests. When children don't have to choose between loyalty and honesty, everyone wins. That's good ex-etiquette.

Encourage healthy screen balance for kids

Parents can help by guiding device time, making offline plans

By Lisa Salmon CPA

In an ideal world, our children would spend school meals playing outside the fire suggests, two of them at like phones and others means they often remain balance during an screen, whatever the conditions.

It's one of the top modern parenting problems – how do you promote kids to spend less time saving an screens, especially when it's hot and sunny content but during the summer months and even into the fall?

"[Brook] should be a time for children to get outside, play, explore and recharge, but the reality is many with still spend plenty of time on their devices," says Gholstan Bombura, director of content and digital at Internet Matters, which supports children and young people's online safety.

"Rather than banning screens altogether, parents should be an underlying children build a healthy balance. The reason encouraging plenty of offline activity while making sure screen time includes creativity, learning, conversation and fun, are just excited they through social levels," she advises.

And it's not just older kids that have been able to reach the internet, according to the latest data from the Children of the 2020s study led by the Center for Longitudinal Studies in London. 2 year olds watch TV videos or other digital content for an area get it two hours each day, which is double the daily screen time recommended by the World Health Organization for this top group.

Kathy Leatherbarrow, early years consultant at core youth training provider Eden Training Solutions,

With teenagers, an expert recommends shifting from restriction on use to collaboration and trust. ANNETTIFIED, OPA

says, Spending more time outdoors "gives them space to move, explore, use their imagination and enjoy active play away from screens. But many parents know it's not always as simple as seeing 'go outside.'"

"It's child is used by trying to outbite or TV during great moments, the results to outdoor play can take a bit of encouragement."

Here's the reporter advice on how to get your kids off devices during brooks from school.

Make offline activities easy to choose: Children are much more likely to put their devices down if there's something impossible waiting for them, Bombura says.

"Whether it's a trip to the park, a bike ride, baking together or a water fight in the garden, making offline activities appealing, or naturally reduce time spent

on screens," she says.

Make outdoor play familiar to young children: Leatherbarrow says making outdoor play feel easy and familiar often helps young children feel happy to choose it rather than staying inside or a device.

"It might be a small bucket of garden for by the door, a single water play activity, or some hand or a short walk to spot colors or leaves," she suggests.

"It doesn't need to be complicated – the one to to give children something simple, safe and appropriate to start with, or getting outside feels like a natural option rather than a bottle."

Get expectations together: Instead of imposing rules, involve children to generate when devices will be used and when they'll be put

away, Bombura suggests. "Children are much more likely to want to bound air or they're a food of a net, especially as they get older," she says.

Create screen-free moments: Build regular levels into the day by keeping conditions, family outings or the day before feel free from devices. "These moments help children switch off and increase it with the people around them," says Bombura.

Put your own phone down: Children follow the range for of their parents, on a key aspect of getting the}(no purchase) devices down for parents to do it first, say: Doctor Hughes, co-founder of Uphagged, a digital dance singer at screen based in the City. "Screen have made being

inside more compelling than being outside, which has meant the opposite city for children to control with nature, embrace a little boredom and boost your activity," says Bombura.

"If you want them off screens, then need to see you off yours, too."

Get clear boundaries: For parents – children age 9 to 18 – Bombura says the trick is to give them some freedom while keeping clear boundaries.

"This is a good age to review time limits together, use activity reports as conversation starters, and encourage them to split their device time between social connections, learning and creative use rather than just anything," she says.

"It can also help to involve them in choosing a place, for example, taking photos, filming a

project or using an app to support a hobby, as devices become part of a wider mix."

Have staff ready to reach for: The step is to do key, a phone is usually just habit or boredom, seen Hughes, who suggests that if there are other easy-to-reach items available it will be a good way to get away from their devices.

"Eaten alternatives out in the open, like cards, a book, something to make. Out of sight, you'll find a room out of mind," he says.

Get them an instant. "Sometimes Hughes says an answer is a good way to get the the same creative rich" as a phone content but products something played at which kids might enjoy instead of scolding.

"There's something quite exciting about with having one shot at a photograph," he points out.

Make group offline a challenge: Hughes explains that when guests arrive at Uphagged, they look their phone in a box. "I'm something similar at home," he suggests. "I've a designated box, not a specific time, and make it feel like an occasion or a challenge rather than just an online activity."

Emphasize trust with older children: Bombura says heavy handed control can localize with teenagers, so the emphasis should shift from strict factors to children's personal trust.

"Encourage them to self-musing more, review settings together and talk up and share how their online time makes them feel, especially if they're vulnerable, anxious or using screens as an escape," she advises.

"I'm not afraid to remove devices, but to help teens use them in a more strict time," says, balancing social connections, creating real interaction with offline activity and doing."

Because our son wants high school at the time, his dad and I agreed that we would have to go to the whether he wanted to split his time between us. For a few years, that arrangement actually worked well. I was grateful that we could both may present in his life in a way that seemed to feel stable for him.

But when the divorce became final and his dad moved away, something distinct. He stopped talking to me. I still don't fully understand why. I've replaced conversation in my hand more times than I can count, wondering if I missed something or could have handled things differently.

I haven't given up hope, and I don't plan to let you run, and I love him deeply – that will worry things. What I struggle with now is something that may seem small, but that can be one off good every time: people asking me, "How is your son?"

I never gain know how to respond. I don't want to reimburse. I don't want to make anyone unconditionally. But I also don't want to pretend everything is there when it isn't. Sometimes I feel a lump in my throat seems to be a problem. What would the best way to answer this question?

Gentle Reader: If you

demonstrate that things are not free, a reasonable person is going to worry about you. And what there are people who live to worry. Miss Manners is able that even they are happy to take on the job on behalf of people with whom they are not close.

This makes your person almost challenging. We does not say this either to make light of your situation or to reject your challenge. The drugstore answer is a little. We haven't spoken recently, but I understand he is doing with well. Thank you so much for asking!

Some answers what you were asked, yet should make it clear that you are not open to casual questions about this.

Dear Miss Manners: My strategy has been using four years product that is so potent that the entire house make. It's really unpleasant. I will need to address you, but I don't want to offend this genuine two, and quite sensitive, young person.

I'm thinking of claiming allergies, but would greatly appreciate guidance as to how to approach this situation to health.

Gentle Reader: Do you really think that if you falsely claimed an allergy, your child would not find you out?

Miss Manners considered it wise to point out that many people do have allergies or who trum to strong odors, and that one never knows whom one might be affected. Within the family, you should be entitled to the small request that they have you asked to talk arbitrary objections. You may be sure that they are not enough for some harmless habit of yours to object to, but so you are the parent of a teenager, you doubtless know how to negotiate a price.

Dear Miss Manners: Occasionally, when I arrive at a grocery store and walk to the entrance, someone who has finished loading their car without me if I want the new simply shopping cart.

If I only plan to buy a few things and don't need the cart, would it be safe for me to try? You can find a new and continue on! I usually feel personal to tell them. "No, but I will be happy to put it back for you anyway." I can also other people doing this.

One of my no-loss argues that putting his often have multiple cart return areas, which are not the most of these cart is being rude. They don't want to return it themselves and are trying to make someone else feel obligated. What does Miss Manners think?

Gentle Reader: That your no-loss must lead a very unhappy life to support over each air ordinary continuous gesture of being insulting.

Dear Miss Manners: How can you make friends as a single TV your old in urban bar? Does it a not my thing. I do volunteer at about bank, but once or twice a month is not enough to make friends. All suggestions welcome!

Gentle Reader: Sewing TV, bible, bill, food? Would working? Trivia night?

Taking a fake give a good way to get a good and something to talk about others with. As long, Miss Manners warns, as any toxic compactionance is needed out early.

Do not re question or the Miss Manners team of Judith Martin, Nicholas M. M. and L. A. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L.

Lisbon — the capital of Portugal with its downtown seen May 15 — is in the midst of a transnational level by its government's among tourists, retirees, expatriates and artists.

Portuguese capital booms with visitors drawn to its culture, culinary scene

By Alexander Lebrano THE NEW YORK TIMES

“Por me, no flower can match the midway's varied colors of Lisbon in the sunlight,” early 20th-century literary giant Fernando Pessoa wrote of the Portuguese capital, where he spent the last 15 years of his life.

Electrorship and financial crises would dull that hates; but those days, Lisbon is blooming and booming, attracting an influx of countries, expansions and retirees with in-hours, weather and relaxed lifestyle. Last year's tragic fascicular crash shocked the city and sparked discussion of the city's identity.

But my popularity has continued to grow. The Portuguese capital received roughly 2 million visitors a year in the mid-1990s and is expected to receive more than 9 million in 2026. Americans are particularly enamored of Lisbon, with U.S. arrivals rising by 90% during the past four years.

The more options is undergoing a major expansion, its decline besides with construction crimes, and exciting restaurants are turning the city into one of Europe's most affordable culinary capitals.

A CITY AWARDED

“Portugal is a country of contradictions. It's conservative but adventurous, insular but open to the world,” said Carlos Sanches Raivo, the owner of the Late Birds, a in-room guesthouse in the Bairro Alto neighborhood that is headed as a “gay urban resort” but outcomes everyone. He invited me for coffee after 1d check to be a night on a three-day trip to Lisbon last summer.

By likely furnished with antiques and literature from the 1990s and 70's, the Late Birds honours an outdoor swimming pool, a can terrace with a bar in the back garden and walls showcasing the work of local LGBTQ+ artists.

“Raivo's own life reflects Portugal's ups and downs. His politicically active parents move this France during the rule of António de Oliveira Salazar, Portugal's daughter Annapurna, followed in 1970, Portugal returned to America in 1978, and eight years after that, the country amended its constitution to ban discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation,

Damas, seen May 15, is a culty, fear and restaurant in a converted industrial bakery in the Ibaça neighborhood.

People visit the Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology — which includes a renovated power station dating to 1908 — on May 14.

Raivo, who had become a successful title–commercial store executive in Paris, decided to return to his family's homeland and in 2015–created the Late Birds in a dilapidated 18th-century town house.

Just a few blocks from the Late Birds, I preched on a stool and welded down a grilled chorizo at the Baccalho wine bar. I walked it down with a delicious sissy glass of red from Portugal's little-known but excellent Barroula region.

Walking down the sissy-Bau das Flores to the Cais-de-Sadei train station, I admired Lisbon's sidewalks, which display a charming wit with their occurring plowbacks, checkerboards and confetti patterns. Their black-and-white cobblestones play as vital apart in the city's visual identity as the buildings in tones of butter

AN ART SCENE BLOSSOMS

Along the deep May-Tagla River in the western neighborhood of Junquares, people lounged with sandwiches and books on the white steps of the Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology in front of a building that looked like a high-tech enamel.

The fantastic river-side gallery designed by British architect Amanda Levene, is part of a complex that includes a renovated 1989 power station and a garden.

The museum's Pop Art collection consists with the old power plant's collection of boilers, condensers, turbo-alternators, household appliances, lighting instruments and other objects from the 1920s to the 1960s.

Nearby the hardy year-old Museu de Arte Contemporânea Arqueado Martins, in an elegant 18th-century palace, displays

Branded on a “gay urban resort,” the Late Birds is seen May 15 in Lisbon's Bairro Alto neighborhood

more than 600 pieces from real estate developer Armando Martins’ collection. One octavo-focasse on Portuguese art from the late 19th century through the end of the 1980s, and a second one includes newer works.

After my visit to the museums, I met my friend Ricimartte for dinner in chef João Rodrigues’ restaurant Cunilha, a favorite of Lisbon chefs, and a tough reservation to sing.

Over an excellent meal that included an omelet topped with shrimp and onions, squid canned in every milk butter, and steak, we talked about Lisbon's emergence as a serious art town. “It's the perfect base for working artists,” Ricicati. “It has lots of cheap space and you can get to us a part-time job, which leaves you time to do your art.” He added that the local gallery scene is thriving

as the city has become richer and more cosmopolitan.

Lisbon is in the midst of a hotel boom, and I wanted to check out one of the new social most popular properties, so I moved from the Late Birds to the new 17th-room Leslie de Santa Joana Lisbon, near the Praça de Marquês de Pombal, a major roundabout with a central monument.

The hotel, built on the site of a former 17th-century convent, offers 11 different types of affordably priced accommodations: almost all include stores, refrigerators and washing machines. The hotel also has a variety of dining options, including crossroad. Portuguese chef Nuno Mendes’ restaurant Santa Joana, where I had a superb dinner of a chorizo, a Portuguese take on brunchets, topped with charred sweet onions, aged like Jorge cheese and tarragon, and a pork. T-house with roasted walnut sauce and turnips.

WISDOM FROM THE PAST

Pessoa, who died in 1935, was as much the fear of Lisbon as James Joyce was of Dublin, and I wanted to visit the Casa Fernando Pessoa, his home in the city he loved.

The bedroom of this gay man who earned his living as a trans-sacat for shipping companies — he spoke fluent English from his childhood in Durban, South Africa — has been preserved as he left it.

Seeing a collection of his coal-lossed mellow creptiness in a display case, I thought of one of his most moving lines: “I'd woken early, and I took along time getting ready to exist.

After an excellent lunch of beverage Portuguese pork at Pignosa, in the Campo de Ourique neighborhood, I walked to the Durban de Príncipe Real to meet my guide for a four-hour Quase Lisbon walking tour.

I was day-breaming in the deep shade of a 400-year-old cedar, limousing to the sparrows chirp, when the guide, Leonor Machado, arrived, and we moved to a cafe on the edge of the gardens to preview the tour over coffee.

“To understand gay life in Lisbon today, you need to look deep into Portugal's past,” Machado told me. “Being with racism and minarpes, homophobia is very deeply embedded in the country's colonial history.”

Pessoa considered “sandade,” an aching yearning for someone or something missed, but or never known, as the defining trait of the Portuguese identity.

That may be true, but Lisbon appears, awfully, to lead an un-something career after. “It is bad thing about my hometown is that it's kind,” Machado said, adding that it's also “no future and still has a strong sense of community.”

I couldn't have agreed more.

Italy connoisseurs choose leisurely Lucca

Rick Steves

On a sunny summer evening in Lucca, Italy, I was inspired by the simple joy of working in an old man bicycling with his proud-daughter atop the wide, bottled wall that once protected this proud-city from its estrogen—and now carvids in Old World charm. Then, on rented Mace, spinoed of their tourists holiday. The stethoscope was contagious. Squinting at the energy in their umbra, surrounded by dazzling numbers, it stood me that the sun in Italy seems to have a special glint. It's an it's railing venture, "Embrae Xle!".

Lucca has no single monumental sight. It's simply a uniquely human and well-proserved city. Despite living men as the "tourists" centre, the mostly traffic-free old town actually feels more local than most city (aside from a few create enormous from the city's own, and you're going to see them).

Lucca began as a Roman settlement. In fact, the grid layout of the streets (and the distance of an amphitheater) survives from Roman times. As was typical for Roman towns, Lucca's two main roads quartered the fort—and the crossing at what was the forum—the main market and on the top (yolceical centre today's Piazza San Michele). The amphitheater car just outside the original Roman walls.

The city is a lot of a paradox, while it has Europe's neighbor Renaissance wall, it hasn't seen a bottle since it left. A friend over a orphaned home was different in between a Roman mass wall and a murdered wall. Medieval walls are thin, because walls evaporate like severe conditions, there was no need for thick

fortification. But in Roman-sauce times, the advent of powerful cannons introduced the need for thickest mass substantial walls—like Lucca's.

These days, locals treat their ramparts like a circular park. And, with plenty of round-fishers available, visitors can enjoy a lofty pedal around its tree-and-a-half-mile circuit. It's a wonderfully smooth 20-to-30-minute ride, depending on how fast you go and how crowded the wall-top park is. The best people watching and downing-pulking—a during "pain-jugate" time, just before dinner, when it seems all of Lucca is out doing slow laps around the wall.

In its border, Lucca packed 95 chasches and over 100 towers within its

walls. Each tower was the home and private bottom of a wealthy merchant family, and offered a safe, off-in-our structure to live, work, and garden.

Interiors were single rooms stacked atop each other: shop, living room, and shop the kitchen, all connected by exterior, wooden stairs and. The rooftop was generally a vegetable garden, with trees providing shade. Later, the wealthy are still moved into the countryside, trading away like in their city palaces to establish farm estates complete with heavy villas. Among Lucca's towers, Romanesque chasches seem to lack around every corner, so do has foreign spaces filled with soccer playing children. The main pedestrian dog here is Via Fillunga, which

connects the town's two busiest squares. Piazza dell'Embiscato and Piazza San Michele, between the two, you can get a home from Lucca's rich past, including several slogans, country-old storefronts.

At delightful Piazza, dell'Embiscato, you'll find the architectural ghost of the town's Roman amphitheater. With the fall of Rome, the theater reflects sorted 910,000 was gradually cannibalized for its stories and inhabited by people living in a mink-under-flare. The host were cleared away in the mid-19th century to better show off the town's illiterature past and make our people wonder anyone for the town's market (every other square is determined by a church). While the arena's long past, its oval

shape is a reminder of the city's lateral footings. Piazza San Michele also has an oral route. It's served a market since Roman times, when it was the forum. Today it's done naturally the Church of San Michele. Towering down in four, Romanesque facade, the archangel life-hard stands ready to flag her wing—which, thanks to a crab-tone-fuecked congregation, he actually did so special on course.

Nearby, the Church of San Giovanni hosts nightly events to感谢 the music of human-company of the come Pracini. One of Italy's greatest operators, Pracini is the genius behind the blaze of a Bebeton, Madame Betteville, and Yesus. His delightful and recent reception—the spirit of this wonderful

corner of Italy. While neighboring Pisa has the famous tippi tower you can climb, know known Lucca's elements may be many Italy connoisseurs. It's just a 10-minute train ride from Pisa and as host's drive from Florence—but just because you can easily pick Lucca more a day trip doesn't mean it should be rushed.

If you have time for more than a touristy-gui-ble at nearby Pisa, consider slowing down, grabbing a gelate, and looking in Lucca's genuine charm.

Astronaut year explore Patagonia

By Jan-Hu Kim TRIBUNE CONTEST AGENCY

Former NASA rocket scientist Asaba Bowe made history last year as a member of the all-female Blue Origin crew.

"The mission was about so much more than going to space," Bowe said. "As a science poet and operator, I helped conduct research on how plants respond to microgravity and radiation. The work could one day help us food astronauts on long-duration missions and support humanity's future beyond Earth. But when I was in the first year plant, I wasn't thinking about the research. I was think my about the journey. I thought about my two-born members, during the time and the student who once struggled to meet and never imagined she'd one day look down at Earth from space. For me, the mission wasn't just about reaching space. It was about expanding who got to see themselves there."

The interview with Bowe was edited for clarity and length.

Q: Are regular trips mundane now that you've been to some square? A: The first Earth better. Every new place will fill me with even more curiosity. What changed after space is how I was to make a new world down at this planet from 100-kilometres in every destination looks impossible previous. If anything, I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it.

Q: Many children dream about becoming an

astronaut. What was your dream?

A: Space was absolutely the dream. As a kid, I was fascinated by exploration. I wanted to visit many places, experience different cultures and see what existed beyond the horizon. More than anything, I wanted a life bigger than the circumstances I was born into. I wanted to see what was out there, what I was capable of and how he I could go. In many ways, going to space was the real justice of that dream, but the dream itself was always about exploration, growth, and expanding what I believed was possible.

Q: Are there plans for you to go back to space?

A: The mission isn't finished. Stay tuned.

Q: How has your heritage impacted onto you too? A: Becoming the first person of Bahamas heritage to travel to space was incredibly meaningful because I know I wasn't just carrying my own dreams with me. I was carrying the hopes of a nation that has always dreamed.

Q: What was the first trip you took as a child?

A: The Bahamas. I remember starting out the airplane window as the water. I went down, deep blue to every minute during space imaginable. Then there was the smell of stuff in the air, sandy foot and long days spent in and around the ocean. The ocean was

my first introduction to wonder. I didn't know it then, but I've been changing that feeling over since. My grandfather just celebrated his 40th birthday, so family is a big reason I enter home... Fresh snappies, couch salad and water so close it doesn't look real don't hurt either.

Q: What would be your dream trip?

A: A McMullin three-star tour of the world that ends in Patagonia. I love discovering places through food, so I would happily chase out ordinary meals across continents. But I would want the journey to end somewhere wild and humbling. Patagonia is the kind of place that makes you feel small in the best possible way... After all the movement, all the cities and all the excitement, I can't imagine. I better place to peace, reflect and remember just how big the world is to stay.

Q: Do you get car or air sick?

A: Thankfully, no. I've pretty much done everything possible to test my home from fighter cars, to centrifuges, skydives and speedlight. At this point, my sister, car and I have come to an understanding. I'm a calm diver, mountain climber and long-bike enthusiast. I've always been allowed to adventure, whether it's underwater—and calm about Earth.

Turo charges renter for damage to vehicle despite photo evidence

By Christopher Elliott | KING PEATURES SYNDICATE You only rented car through Turo in Los Angeles. I delivered the car a day early because I had to catch an earlier flight home.

The mention, I received a text from Turo saying the owner claimed that I had damaged the car.

Turn out photos, one of which showed a scratch on the border and a small hole in the bumper.

Fortunately, I had taken photos about took possession of the car. I sent Turo my photos, which clearly showed that the scratch was already there.

Turo reviewed the evidence and told me that the claim had been dropped because it was "normal wear and tear".

A week later, Turo responded the claim and charged my credit card $600, but I was never shown an immoral bill.

Then, earlier this month, it sent me another invoice for $1,478. Turo claims that there's new "bidder" damage to the car. It went upfront of charge that that I've never seen before.

The fire/bible a scan. I've disputed the charge with my credit card company, but I'm not hopeful.

Car you help me get my money back!

—Garyyne Montalieri, Birmingham, Alabama

A: Turo should've stuck to its original decision. You had the evidence to prove that the damage was generating, and the company correctly identified it as "wear and tear". Reopening the claim and charging you $600—and then piling me another $1,478 for "bidder damage"—was wrong.

Over to-peer car rental platforms like Turo can be tricky. Unlike traditional car rental companies, you're dealing with individual owners who may be very protective of their vehicle(s) or—in rare cases are looking to have existing damage food at a renter's expense.

The single powerful claim is a common pain point. This happens when a major shop takes the car apart and

finds more damage than was visible in the rental photos. While this is a high-rises industry process, it can feel incredibly unfair to a renter who has already left the other and doesn't have a way to verify the new damage.

You did the right thing to taking photos of the car when you picked it up. This is your mails away from defense against 30-sheet damage claims. It's used as "try" I've ignored your photographic evidence after initially surspring. (The photos get uploaded to the Turo app, so it has access to them.)

You could've also appealed you care to someone higher up at Turo. I just didn't be curious, numbers and email

addresses of the Turo executives on my consumer advocacy site, Elliott.org. Your case is a comment to always take photos of the car at pit dog and return. This evidence is the only thing standing between you and a massive repair bill.

I contacted Turo on your behalf. The company reviewed your case again and dropped the claim. You have received a full refund of the $600, and the additional invoice of $1,478 has been canceled.

Catch wind in your sails at marine destinations

Escape life's stresses as member of crew or relaxing on deck

By Yvonne Grengstein TRADE/PLUS

It is widely believed that Mark Twain said "Twenty years from us to you will be more dangerously the things you didn't do than those you did. So, those off the bowlinas. Sail over from the safe harbor. Catch the wind in your sails. Explore Dream. Discover."

There's just something special about sailing. The open water, sunshine on your face, the wind in your hair and a total sense of freedom, relaxation and comforting, a perfect sunshine to the stresses of living in today's modern world.

Whether you decide to be part of a crew meaning the sail over just along for the ride, American air fortunate to have so many incredible destinations to sail.

Newport, Rhode Island: Often referred to as the "sailing capital of the world," Newport offers a day-momeless history, ideal sailing conditions, and an important vision in common land competitive sailing. The coastshores bound the America City from 1950 to 1960. The sea is a little art in nature from around the globe to an annual sailing event.

Newport has been along with state and state for Olympic and professional sailors, and there's nothing like moving under the impression: Newport Bridge, the longest suspension span in New England.

Consumers suffer from subscription fatigue

Companies use tactic to build steady cash flow, loyalty to brand

By Soạn Đới THE NEW YORK TIMES

'If it costs as if much if your life has a subscription now — your TV your car, even your when noise machines — you would be coming ...'

'Take Eleanor Lewis, a 10 year old software engineer in New York City who is paying for a video game, she is no longer interested in. She has subscribed to DidD Rewind — an accurate password to the original role driving game — for what to her feels like 'forever.'

'I haven't played Dungeons & Dragons in like five years,' Lewis said. 'I finally do not even like Dungeons & Dragons, but I'm stuck with this stupid Dungeons & Dragons. Beyond us a subscription I can't figure out how to get rid of.'

She is first met on one pile of products or services that are taking up long-term residence in credit card statements. There are your streaming channels. Shopping sites, like Amazon Prime, Wholesaler, Odo for household goods, including Curios. The old ice cream, the new food, the age and the food that make your computer useful, like image-selling software.

It could even be your underwear Car washes. Your best. The network is when you are in your personal social sports. Earthenness to feed your alternative. Dating apps, Exercise bikes, Your child's multi-games, Prime, YouTube, YouTube, and more. For canteen. Your pet photo, And-Eat Tanger the subscriptions to particular products. But really paper and the company called Who Gives a Cup.

Some of your subscriptions have subscriptions — there's Hulu and then there's Hulu Premium.

And, of course, there are subscriptions to manage your subscriptions.

The average American has 1.2 subscriptions and spends $99 per month on them, according to new research from Bangs, a British subscription platform provider. Other research places the figures higher. In some of these analyses, including one by Chicago-based C-N Research, the average subscription bill per person might be more than $200.

A significant number of products — including physical merchandise and software — has moved to a million from model. According to a 2023 Harvard Business School study, almost 70% of companies that sell directly to customers offer subscriptions.

Subscriptions have been around for decades — for cabs, newspapers, car leases and cellphones. The

explosion of this model is a more recent phenomenon.

A seminal moment in subscription history was the success of Netflix's model, introduced in 1999, and Amazon's launch of Amazon Prime in 2005. The more's helped make those companies into corporate balloons, and other companies have been bundling subscriptions since. Phone and Internet companies such as Verizon now offer packages that include Netflix.

For some customers, the fatigue is setting in.

'I don't think there's a single thing you can sign up for a lot of stuff that isn't trying to give you a subscription,' said Sherat Kalani, 21, who works in New York as a leader for a small four-year-olds in healthcare. 'You end up working a lot of money through subscriptions because you think you'll save money up front.'

Kalan pun based a subscription in CBR-Post, from the cafe chain Port A Manger, paying $50 a month for up to five tourists made drinks a day.

'If I was buying 6 of coffee twice a day, I actually come up on top. But at the end of the year, I didn't actually get the $50 worth,' Kalani said.

For companies, subscriptions bring a thrifty call flow, reamusing investors. Also, a customer is especially to see the price with a subscription. Both Kalan holders, a company's measure of customer lifetime value, an assessment of how much money such customers generates, marketing experts say.

Customers may feel more at ease with smaller payments than the cash, cost, and Giles Tongue, a vice president of marketing for Bangs, which runs a platform to manage subscriptions.

'If you turn it into a subscription product and you're imagining you're going to get a recurring payment over a number of months, that reduces the initial feeling of commitment,' Tongue said.

Some car companies have been waiting even to make more money after the point of purchase. Tells into a place at one time $50,000 per year in Puff mill living capability. In 2021, the company introduced a leading subscription for the package. This year, as Tandy profits ahead, the company moved some of its basic auto pricing features behind its pre-paid.

In recent years, BMW attracted decision for offering subscriptions for brand deals, though the company now gets to a friend that decision. (That feature was reached by 'The DidD Show.') In 2022, Mercedes-Benz began offering a subscription for

improved horsepower, and the company continued to sell data packages that offer some often can't feature as subscriptions. (Volkswagen also offered a horsepower subscription, beginning last year.)

'I would go on the supermarket and sell you only the plain yogurt and then, in a different stand, and even the brain to put some yogurt and all these components apart. I would love to do that,' said Gil Appel, an assistant professor of marketing at George H. Kahn, who said, 'You can't do that in the supermarket. You can do it in any other age.'

An technology has — like a 2, to that the case of tracking consumer behavior, subscriptions show companies to collect more information over a longer period. And they represent a power opportunity to use the same way as an increasingly crucial avenue for revenue. A study from Capital One Shopping last year found that 97% of customers are in poor news for products from a brand they trust.

'If I am a subscription or a membership model, I have access to data that those customers are intentionally giving to me,' said Jennifer Oliva, chief marketing officer at McAlester, who added that the company has been a major business in the recent 1980s revenue industry. 'I've got three parts data that I'm collecting from them, I was going to get a new data that they're purchasing.'

Another reason for this shift is a generalized one. Older customers even more than 50% are buying data, and more ahead of being over-breveged. McDonald and Gun Zars, are so much.

'It also focuses on small businesses that are not working on what's next to buy a car until they had enough money to pay for it,' said Scott Pay, a professor of marketing at Syracuse University.

A CHANCE AT THE AMERICAN DREAM

Elk Grove Village organizes raffle for families to buy 20 new homes below market rate

By Kim Belmore THE NEW YORK TIMES

Home buying is a game of numbers, and often a game of chance. Timing, the right broker and wooing letters can mean the difference between winners and losers. Then come the deep-pocketed speculators and cash-in-hand buyers who can blow other prospective buyers off the board.

Craig Johnson, the longtime mayor of the Chicago suburb Elk Grove Village, figured there had to be an equalizer.

How about a raffle? On a recent Saturday, more than a dozen families filtered into a banquet hall to retire a drawing for the chance to buy 1 of 20 new homes below market rates. Johnson has a penchant for atten-

tion-grabbing promotions (like sponsoring the college football Bahamas Bowl or raffling off a

donated house) and wanted fairness — and a little flair. Hoping to channel the spirit of

the NFL draft, he pulled names like at a time from a black box, the selected prospective buyers then raced a few-minute-time to pick a remaining lot from a giant map.

Ten families, all with pre-paid letters at the ready, ultimately, chose homes, paid $2,500 more/handable deposits and signed purchase agreements for houses that are scheduled to be ready next summer. Minutes later, they walked out under contract.

The first names drawn were Prezana Patel, 52, and Minarah Patel, 31, clinical researchers who were outgrowing the condo they shared with their relatives. They were reluctantly considering moving 20 miles west after struggling to find a home, until Prezana Patel learned about the raffle is a community newsletter.

By Bob Goldsborough FOR THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Former Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore on July 24 sold his five-bedroom, 6,430-square-foot house in Vernon Hills for $1.85 million.

Moore, 29, played for the Bears from 2023 through the 2025 season. He was traded in March to the Buffalo Bills.

In Vernon Hills, Moore bought the home in August 2024 for $1.66 million through an opaque land

trust that made his identity. He first listed it in May for just under $1.9 million.

Built in 2030 and located in Vernon Hills' Gregg's Landing area, Moore's house has five full bathrooms, a two-story foyer, hardwood floors, custom millwork, a private first-floor office and a finished walkout basement. The kitchen has quartz and quartzite countertops, a glass tile backpack, custom 42-inch cabinetry with crown detailing, under-cabinet lighting, a walk-in

pantry, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Wall double room cooking, a Bosch dishwasher and a built-in Mode coffee system.

Giant skeletons stay out of storage closets

12-foot decorations displayed on lawns beyond Halloween

By Jack Flemming

LOS ANGELES TIMES

The medical art invading Los Angeles. They wear Sante hair and sunglasses, America's flag and your dreams. While small objects towering over houses and neighborhood, Others set in the California sun, disintegrating the rivers flag, means a palm-amp envelopes a skirmeter. A skull peering over crowding.

They are, of course, giant 12-foot skeletons. And if they're on an easy neighborhood already, they probably will be used.

Released by Home Depot in 2020, the Halloween people move as 'Shelly' has trimmings filled from a motor into a movement. At first mostly limited to the month of his father and maybe a week or two in November, many skeletons are still in the room. They are not sure they're not over-the-deck than one with whatever theme fits the latest he'll die. Christmas, Robert, the Fourth of July, is.

Home are political a Putin skeleton superstarving an undead Trump, or a skeleton with the right that says 'We're accustomed, see you soon alone.' Others are the subject of fights with cities and homeowners associations. In LA, they're everywhere. Highland Park, Venice, Culver City, Westchester, Burbank, Pasadena, Los Reds, Hollywood and beyond.

They're loved, they're based and they're a summer byproduct of Los Angeles—a city filled with the creative and the federation, with people who want to make a splash, get a laugh or simply be sure of.

But there's another unequal LA to move who meet and more skeletons are becoming permanent (and it's new). They're too big to put on.

Giant skeletons are displayed in the yard of a home in Los Angeles. ARWEN GUNNAN/LOIS ANGELES TIMES

As home prices skyrocket, storage space becomes a luxury. Rocky ends hold ADVA. Loops down become bedrooms. Giant skeletons stand for 100 days a year for the same reason that passes, treadmills and coaches are given away for free. They're too big to do anything else with, better up than do.

'Home Depot made a plastic storage bin specifically for the skeleton, but even the storage bins are huge,' said Tyler Bradberry, a fourth Los Angeles resident who has had a giant skeleton in his yard since 2020. 'Space is expensive. It's LA.'

For Bradberry, who works on visual arts, the skeleton is an extension of the inside of the home, where maximization reigns with psycholeaks, art. Pushand, H.R. Gajer, Neck Face etc. — and a life-size E.T. status.

'Everything is so nice in new. Everyone wants their house to look like a square foot,' he said. 'It's

size for things to stick out a lot. We had staff given the neighbors something to talk about.'

At least one neighbor has had a house to pick — an older man from Central America who told him he was 'playing with death.'

For Christmas, Bradberry dressed the skeleton as Santa Clara, with a no-foot beard. For a haunted first-flamed low back party, he gave it a saga.

In 2021, he went viral for digitally editing a pair of comic-clip large, two-years in the skeleton. Shortly after, with the help of two friends who work in wardrobe design, he brought the mouse to life, defeating a skeleton with following doom at the LA culture festival CampfortCon, where artists, designers and rappers converge.

'Char Raid thought it was hilarious,' he said.

In Amman Village, photographer Lori Bonin has had her top since 2020. What started at LA's foot skeleton, beaten by years of

wind and rain, has withered into a sea-boat palm on two legs.

'I'm the house with the legs,' Bonin said.

'He lives near the LA River Park, so plenty of passports take pictures. Because he's sitting in down last year, but as soon as she did, a father and son drove by a car, a car expressed their dismay that it was gone.

'People were upset, but when we brought a back for Halloween, everyone was indeed,' she said.

Businesses are not using the movement as well. Above VCA Burbank Animal Hospital, a skeleton named RFP is created to increase per ounce of their pyromortality. Manager Alana Jennings (from said 18 years) said October as a reward for 100% of employees complaining a survey on workplace culture, but now it's a neighborhood design.

'It's been a great way to connect with the community,' Jennings' notes said. 'We've become known as

the hospital with the skeleton.'

House Dow, who lives in the Central Valley city of Tarlock, said people drive by the skeleton — named Mr. Bonin — every single day.

'Ours at lunch a few months ago, a stranger recognized me as the skeleton got,' he said.

For Father's Day, Dow's skeleton grilled. Dow spray-painted an inflatable swimming pool block for a barbecue and a black like mantra over against apron.

'Dow is a member of the '12 Foot Holstein Halloween Club,' a Facebook group with more than 84,000 members where people draw their own designs and stories. A skeleton making after a house fire, or a stolen skull to shed down by police.'

A small industry has popped up around the skeleton, including 80-printed masks and a remote repair parts. Dow paid $10 for two shoulder suckers and left for custom elbow joints after his broke. He also

sprays the skeleton with a 5W powerport casting mask for human tissue the plastic from withering.

It's a bit around the neighborhood, he says. Dow hasn't had any pushback from neighbors, but says he's seen it elsewhere.

'People say they're making home videos drop, or claim skeleton are part of the home, and will like that,' he said. 'But there's always games for those people.'

Around LA, there are places.

Only flowers, who lives in Hollywood, and he can see a skeleton from his second-story window. 'A woman's home is up, but she poke worse off quickly,' he said. 'It's a beautiful neighborhood. Palm trees, beautiful plants, the mountains, the background. And then this means to skeleton.'

He added that it feels like a tree of bark already tired, the master's woman of farm pioneers of damages.

The first two years a skeleton in Highland Park with her day even day.

'I like it, but my dog doesn't,' she said. 'He starts barking whenever we get too close.'

On the Los Angeles Reddit page, a user posted a picture of a home with a giant skeleton showing on the roof and a pair of skeleton dogs at its side, titled 'Interesting house today (not Halloween) in West Adams,' Opinions noted.

'We live in Los Angeles on Halloween town,' one user wrote.

Others supported the bold choice. If he no other reason than a flipped life had at a mountain.

'I want popsman when I work from house on behalf of those who can't. This is the WOW version,' she said.

'Dow said his skeleton will stay up and debated.'

'Everybody's asking what I'm gonna do next,' he said. 'I gave an skeleton. I can't let them down.'

HOME REMEDIES

Summertime heat means home needs extra care to keep its cool

By Angie Hicks

AIA AIAE

Record-breaking temperatures aren't just food in people — they can keep your home from the home. Extended periods of extreme heat can affect everything from your roof and landscaping to windows, plumbing and outdoor living spaces. Fortunately, 1600y preparations can help homeowners protect their homes and avoid unnecessary headaches during the summer weeks of summer.

Your outside by taking a walk around your property.35 feet can quickly dry out landscaping, causing plants during the winter, and the trees to become stressed. Watering already in the early morning allows moisture to soak into the soil before the day's heat causes it to evaporate. Adding a fresh layer of mulch around plants can also help the ground retain moisture while getting it dry even from extreme temperatures.

Outdoor living spaces deserve attention as well. Prob. furniture, grills, umbrellas and cushions can

determine more quickly after days of intense sun exposure. If possible, more furniture into shaded areas when it's not being used or invest in protection comes designed to withhold UV rays. Wooden deck may also benefit from a quick inspection, as prolonged heat and direct sunlight can dry out wood and make existing cracks more noticeable.

Homeowners should also think about the areas of the home that absorb the most heat. South- and west-facing windows often experience the strongest afternoon sun, installing extreme solar screens, existing or shade walls can help reduce the amount of heat entering the home while making outdoor spaces more comfortable during the day. Even strategically, plants can also provide long-term shade that benefits both the home and the roof.

Extreme heat is also a good reminder to check on areas that are easy to overlook. Garages, eCAs and shade can become dangerously hot during the summer. Avoid storing

heat-sensitive items like paint, batteries, propane cylinders or certain household chemicals in space that aren't climate controlled, and make sure clean areas remain well-ventilated whenever possible.

Finally, don't forget to prepare for outdoor summer stories that often accompany periods of intense heat. Cleaning gutters, securing loose outdoor furniture and trimming dead tree limbs can help reduce potential damage if severe weather follows a heat wave.

Summer heat is inevitable, but taking a proactive approach can help homeowners protect both their property and their outdoor spaces. A few simple preparations can help your home weather the season more comfortably while avoiding unnecessary wear and tear that often accompanies prolonged periods of extreme temperatures.

ASK THE BUILDER

Backplash tile hardly ho-hum job

By Tim Carter

TRIBUNE CONTENT

AGENCY

I've had the pleasure to use above-hands animal knowledge to my use about many aspects of construction. I'm just a lot working together to finish the home more in his new home that he purchased four years ago. Ask my wife, and don't tell me that it's always been my dream to help my kids build or improve their homes.

It was time recently to outright your medical infancy tile in his upro804. That's not a high-filtre and tile is usually held between two solid or obese counter-ages. You might think this is a ho-hum job that requires minimal skill. It's really you'd be wrong.

I have recently ago we'd be installing tile in larger, long, rectangular tile. My life sales of tile in the addition experience a palindrom when I'm sure the 14-inch tall wall that created the foundation for the tile. The wall had to be a large, large and perfectly straight. The bottom and top two, the four-seat plates that I used were selected with care. Not only were both perfectly straight, I made sure they were cut from the center of the tree so they'd stay straight. The vertical end of the concrete portion.

Ceramic tile, while quite strong, is categorized as very weak in tension. Tension is a liver that causes things to pull apart or stretch. I put fill on one side up or a change and when you press on it, you'll cause it to react to stretch. This results in a cracked tile. I've done an impure on cracked or uncracked tile for the job. Each time you lift the tile to us can see where the adhesive never made certain. There was a slight difference in the size of the tile. As soon as you walk on the tile or put a concrete trench load on it, the tile cracks.

It's nice to apply much

pressure to a backplash, but I didn't want to take any chance. Take the time to make sure any surface you apply tile to has no lumps or low open in it.

I had two choices when I came to adhesive. I used four organic matrix or thinner. Organic matrix is premixed and has the consistency of peanut butter. It's not a bad adhesive, but I think thinner that distinct advantages.

Thinner is a blend of Portland cement, the silica used, and sometimes olive additive. It comes dry and you mix it with water to the consistency of appliances. The thinner transform to avoid as the water reacts with the Portland cement. The growing microscopic crestle of cement creates an excess load between the tile and whatever. I use apply the tile to. The thinner is so m139, it will affect to smooth and still be epoxy. Don't allow thinner wash water to drain into plumbing. Do all washing out live.

I made sure the back of the tile and the half height has wall even dust free. Dust will later free with the break! In the organic matrix and thinner, it only takes minutes to break the dust from the wall. The high-quality tile was dust free out of the box. This makes the surface so make sure your tile is clean. I only mix enough thinner that I can use as an hour. I'll even refrigerate the dry thinner the night before to

do all can to keep the mix cool or cold. Then recede the chemical reaction that transforms the plastic thinner into a solid. Should you find your thinner getting wet, it's not too hot. So not re-temper it with more water. Do not the thinner and mix up new.

You'll probably need to make it, shaped cuts in a silo or two. Please use a small piece of paper to be fit around electric outlet and switch thinner. I use a diamond wet core to make the cuts. You can use a small piece of paper to be hard-hold at point out, but it creates a batch of dust. Do this cutting outdoors and wear a high-quality mask. You'll discover an assistance very useful. This process can be cutting tiles while you install them. Mix smaller amounts of dust and make sure they're not in the way. You'll be enamel, how much time you spend measuring and cutting the tiles so exposed to installing them.

I prefer to use a tv by using a paper not hard brown to apply the thinner to the back of the tiles or the wall surface.

I shall be moved at a location which will be between the once-thinner. It's vital you make sure the thinner is under the tile where a tile drains us down, less. This makes the surface even the metal sure of the outlet or switch over to any of the tile. You need to be sure there's not a hollow spot under the tile at these locations.

fell lucky for a few reasons. Four was the number of her newborn son's day of birth, and their new home would be the only four-bedroom house in the development that faced north – an auspicious cardinal direction according to Vants, the traditional Italian philosophy of design. She smoothed the sticker on the board and claimed their future home.

The raffle comes as a buyer nationwide struggle to find affordable homes. Even though houses in the Midwest have long been considered better values than houses in coastal cities and San Remo home towns, the Chicago metro area still has one of the top-performing housing markets in the United States, making it difficult for buyers.

Elk Grove Village owned a 2.4-acre field that once housed a church. It would be the perfect site to build a small, lower-priced community. Johnson said, but do not know what's the idea of small lots and sub-Mc Manison store. "I probably want through at least a half a dozen developers, and they all kind of rejected me," Johnson said. "They want to build $750,000 to a million dollar homes, and that doesn't fit

the neighborhood, and it doesn't help people."

Johnson eventually connected with Nick Papamicholas Jr., a local developer who embraced the music version and was willing to work with a thin profit margin of about 4%. The development, known as Tomie Grove, has a mix of ranch and two-story homes ranging from 1,800 square feet to 1,000 square feet, the price for a two-bedroom house with a den and a garage starts at $444,000.

The raffle was announced in May, and participation was limited to current Elk Grove Village residents who are required to live in the homes for at least five years, measures designed to discourage flippers and speculators.

More than 100 potential buyers expressed interest, Johnson said, but the field was eventually witnessed to about two dozen eligible buyers. Once the raffle was over, 10 homes were left unclaimed.

Johnson said he wasn't surprised that not all of the homes sold, given that the pool of prospective buyers was small. Many rafflegoers were interested only in four-bedroom houses, which they said were hard to find at affordable prices in the community. The new development only included six, all of which were

selected.

Still, Johnson considered the plan a success and was optimistic for idea could be replicated in other similar towns. The unclaimed homes will be listed on the open market at $350,000 more than the price at the raffle.

Emily Talen, who directs both the Urbanism Lab and the Kersiman Initiative for Housing Law and Policy at the University of Chicago, praised the development

for prioritizing smaller builds over sprawl. But she noted that the plan didn't address near-or-long-term affordability, the reduced price tag is a one-time bonus fit for Tomie Grove's inaugural buyers.

"You're not really addressing the systemic things here," Talen said. Several buyers, however, intend to make their Tomie Grove houses forever homes.

Daniel Schram, 31, was

born in Elk Grove Village and said he had no plans to learn after securing a home big enough for himself, his sister and his brother-in-law. Schram was living with his mother, who also entered the raffle and will move into a smaller ranch house nearby.

As the Schram chatted, Matt Vatanaturgakorn, 30, reviewed paperwork while his mother crisscrossed the room to collect the names and the numbers of their

future neighbors. Justin James, 40, held his son, Owen, as he listened to Joe Santowski, 35, slam bybans for future block parties.

Proram Patel looked around and saw the same friendly spirit that had drawn her family to the community. She called the raffle and its timing "kind of a miracle."

"It was our one last shot at Elk Grove Village, to make it happen," she said. "And it did."

YOUR GUIDE TO MANAGING MONEY, WORK AND THE BUSINESS OF LIFE

Review your homeowners' policy now

Jill Schlaninger (ILLON MONEY) Wildfires, hurricanes, flash floods – if the past few years has taught us anything, it's that 'once-to-a-generation' system seems to be occurring a lot more frequently. That puts the virus on you to focus on a sleepy corner of your financial life that's supposed to protect against those risks your homeowners' insurance policy.

There are three big exceptions to standard policies: flooding (more on this later), earthquakes and general wear and tear of the dwelling. That said, most homeowners' policies contain four pillars.

First, coverage for your home's structure of it is damaged or destroyed by fire, hurricane, hail, lightning or other disaster listed in the policy.

Second, coverage for personal belongings, though, represents items like jewelry, furs and silver were usually have specific dollar limits if they are stolen.

Third, coverage against lawsuits for bodily injury or property damage that policyholders, family members or pets cause to other people.

Fourth, coverage for hotels, short-term rentals, restaurant meals and other living expenses if a house is inhabitable from a fire, storm or other insured disaster.

WILDFIRES: COVERED, WITH CAVEATS

Most policies provide coverage against wildfire damage, including smoke damage and looting after an evacuation. They also cover additional living expenses if your home is temporarily uninhabitable. Damage to your car would be covered by the comprehensive portion of your auto policy.

FLOOD: NEVER COVERED

Two more people have this known the pandal way. Floods are not covered, period. It doesn't matter if the water came from a hurricane, almost done as a flood-spying storm.

To purchase flood protection, you need a more policy typically through the government's FLOOD National Flood Insurance Program.

Before you try to maintain the system, know that there is a 50-day waiting period before a new flood policy kicks in, so you can't buy it the week a storm is bearing down so you. Will it coverage turn out at $250,000 for your home's structure and $300,000 for its contents. If you need more, ask about excess flood coverage from a private carrier.

HURRICANES: DOUBLE WHAMMY

Your hurricane policy covers wind damage – two-off pools, shattered windows, storm-downs and a – but it does not cover the flooding of the child's children's storm. According to the Insurance Information Institute, nearly 90% of U.S. natural disasters involve flooding, and inland flooding from a weakening hurricane can be just as devastating as the storm surge itself. That means hurricane-season prep really means a two-policy conservative homeowners for wind, flood insurance for water.

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO

Grab your existing policy and review the incriminate page. Understood the key elements, like your deductibles, your limits, and what disasters are named in your policy. Your period is only as good as your coverage limits, so this is worth an annual check-in, especially in rebuilding costs climb.

Next: Take photos or video of your home and belongings now, while the kites are clear, and store that inventory somewhere you can access to it from anywhere. And if you're on the fence about flood coverage because you aren't in a 'high-risk' zone, know that 20% of flood claims come from low- and moderate-risk areas.

Insurance isn't a fine thing to think about until you need it – and by then, it's too late to address the gap.

DREANSTONE

Policy, Apples

While there's no downside to shopping around, holders should be aware of the trade-offs that come with switching insurance often

KIPLINGER'S PERSONAL FINANCE

You've heard the advice to shop around for new quotes once in a while to send you out about your insurance company's renewal offer.

But what if you shop around ahead of every renewal? And what if you get a better quote somewhere else every time? In there any reason you shouldn't buy from one provider to another every year (or every six months) to get the best price?

The short answer is no. If you're constantly seeing lower prices elsewhere, there's not really a good reason to choose the more expensive premium just for the sake of not being a policy keeper. Despite the loyalty discounts your current provider might be offering, loyalty rarely pays in insurance.

With that said, there are some trade-offs you make by frequently switching your insurance, and there are some considerations to keep in mind before jumping ship.

Here are some of the things you might be sacrificing by switching – whether or not they matter depends on your situation.

YOU'LL LOSE OUT ON CERTAIN DISCOUNTS

See you previously bundled your home and auto insurance to take advantage of a discount your insurance company was offering. Now, you've found cheaper, no insurance through another provider, but your home insurance isn't up for renewal yet, or you still like the price you're paying where you're at.

Before making the switch, find the breakdown of how your current premium was calculated.

If you've bundled multiple policies, get the breakdown of each policy in

the bundle. As an example, I bundled home and auto last year but used the same company offered the best price for both – and it was even better after the bundle discount.

This year, I was able to find a lower price on an insurance from another provider.

Before switching, I checked my current paperwork to see how much of a discount I was getting on home insurance by bundling. The discount was about $200. Meanwhile, the company's rate is quite low in insurance, but about $500 lower than the renewal offer. So I switched.

Even though my home insurance premium will go up slow down I lose that discount, I'm still paying less overall than I would be if I'd kept the bundle.

But, if the price difference you see isn't enough to offset any discounts you'll lose, it's probably better to stay.

Another common discount that you could lose when you switch is your loyalty discount. This is a modest premium discount that sometimes gets bigger the longer you've stayed with the same company.

But the loyalty discount isn't always better than the introductory rates a company will offer to win over a new customer, so it's always worth shopping around at each renewal.

YOU MAY NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR CERTAIN BENEFITS

Beyond certain discounts, there are other perks sometimes tied to how long you've been with your insurance company. The main one here is accident forgiveness. This is a benefit that basically should your policy from a rate like following an accident.

Sometimes, it's based solely on your driving record. In that case, whether you're a new or long-term customer doesn't matter. What matters is how long it's been since you last had an

accident. But some companies restrict accident forgiveness to customers – who've been with the same provider for a certain length of time.

In accident forgiveness worth staying with your current insurance provider despite the higher premium? That depends. If you don't have any accidents on your record and you're a safe driver, maybe not. If you've already had an accident and used this perk to keep your premium lower, you might want to stay to keep it active.

Do you know whether the new lower quote you found already factors in that accident on your record? If not, the lower premium from the competitor is likely to jump into the company checks your claim history. If you, then your current provider's accident forgiveness isn't really saving you money.

MAKE SURE THE COVERAGE IS COMPARABLE BEFORE SWITCHING INSURANCE

If you get a new quote that's a lot lower than your renewal offer, you might be ready to take the loop.

But before signing that paperwork, make sure to compare the policies side by side. In the coverage actually the same? Are there any inclinations that new policy has that the old one doesn't?

If you get a quote for a policy with, say, a higher deductible than you currently have, have you compared that to what your current company would charge if you raised your deductible by the same amount?

Shopping around is a great time to reevaluate your coverage needs and see what reveals you can make to earn. But if you're making any changes to your coverage, get a quote from your current provider for that changed coverage too. That way, you're comparing apples to apples to make sure you're truly getting the best available price.

Review Social Security's latest regulations to make best choices

Social Security regulations are complex. I have been answering questions about Social Security for 10 years now, and it is not unusual for a reader to indicate that they have been transferred to a Social Security representative.

If you believe that you have been given incorrect information, don't hesitate to ask for a supervisor, or discuss the issue with a financial advisor or CPA knowledgeable about Social Security issues.

I read Heather's Standard's monthly column regarding Social Security regulations, which is published at one of the most recent news and information published by Ed Hart. I always learn something new when I read Heather's column. The following is some information on Social Security you should be aware of.

SPOUGAL BENEFITS AFTER DIVORCE In previous columns, I have pointed out that after a divorce, as long as the marriage had been defined, it's not 10 years. The divorced spouse would be entitled to a spousal benefit even if his/her spouse had not died for Social Security benefits yet, even though he had at least 10 years of service and had reached age 12. However, in this situation, Heather pointed out in her column, until the spouse died for his benefits, the current spouse would not be

eligible for spousal benefits until he filed for his benefits.

Benefits available to a divorce expense that is not available to a current spouse as individual who works under Social Security can have his/her benefits reduced to their his earnings and is specified limits. Another example is when he had received a previous arrangement of Social Security benefits. In this situation, the current spouse of the worker who had his benefits reduced, as eliminated, would also have her benefits reduced if she was entitled to benefit based on her spouse's work. The company's personal income, who had been married for at least 10 years and was receiving special benefits based on her previous marriage, would not lose any benefits in this situation.

SPOUGAL AND SURVIVOR BENEFITS When an individual who worked under Social Security files his benefits prior to reaching full retirement age (FRA), she can no longer receive a spousal benefit of 50% of her spouse's Social Security benefits. When an individual files her/her Social Security benefits early (prior to her full retirement age), her spouse's income (the last survivor benefit) is permanently reduced. However, as Heather pointed out, as I have also discussed her previous columns, a survivor benefit is based on the age of individual before she files her life benefits. If she has already reached full retirement age (over 2.5hs filed for a benefit based on her work record before reaching her FRA), she

would be entitled to 100% of her spouse's Social Security benefits if she time of his death. (The same benefit would be available to a divorce spouse whose marriage lasted at least 10 years, as long as she was single or re-married after age 60.)

REPEAL OF GOVERNMENT PENSION OFFSET

In Heather's recent column, she pointed out that prior to the regulation that repeals 20% of her pension. Often, individuals who received a pension from work outside Social Security had their pension rate calculated to be 10% reduced as eliminated. So, if you were informed by Social Security representatives prior to the repeal of 60% that you were not eligible for a spousal benefit or a similar benefit, you should file for those benefits now.

Bottom line: Make sure you understand the benefits of Social Security regarding your work record as well as spousal benefits and survivor benefits. If you believe you need professional advice, don't have late to contact www.scheply.com for the assistance of a few financial financial adviser in your area who can assist you. You must individual don't maximize their benefits because they don't understand the complex regulations associated with Social Security.

reliants. And there are more unexpectedly high-reliants because of its law changes. Serious who received a larger standard deduction on applying refunds of taxes withheld from Social Security benefits and other income. Workers whose tips become tax free, but who didn't adjust withholding, suddenly found themselves expecting refunds when the FSA is April.

But as the returns were processed, these unusual larger payments were flagged. And instead of being processed at our own, it was not a good thing to get a refund employment at the IRS. The result has been a huge backlog — and long delays in getting refunds.

It's a extremely problem, according to many CPAs, who say that even using the special phone lines set aside for tax professionals, it can take multiple calls to get through the system on behalf of clients. Individual places are even to get time talking to an agent on the phone.

PROVING IDENTITY The first limit received by many awnings that were not discussed by proof of identity. It doesn't matter that they have always used the same tax program or software. They haven't changed their mailing address or loadings information for the expected refund. But when the return is highlighted for review, the first step seems to be a demand for proof of identity because your return has been deemed "expensive."

Now you're faced with verifying your

identity online through the ID me service used by the IRS. You'll need a valid government record phone ID, your Social Security number and access to a smartphone with a camera on the video verification call. You may also need a utility bill, bank statement or pay stub if more information is demanded.

You should also create your own account at IRS.gov/casroom. That will list too busy track of the processing of your return. But don't expect an immediate refund once your identity is verified. Many people report delays of three months or more, which they took in their online account. That's because the return — even with identity verified — is being handled by an individual IRS agent, who has made it refund to a authorize.

A MATTER OF INTEREST Tax law says the IRS should be paying interest on all these dividends. But the more important is up in the air. It should be the date the original income was received. Or it could be the date the IRS identify is withheld. The IRS usually only starts paying interest if your refund is delayed more than 45 days past the later of the return due date or the date the return was filed.

The current interest rate for the July-September 2020 system is 7% per year, compounded daily, full-time mail—one either or a separate check, or as part of your received refund. Please note, this interest is taxable! You'll receive a $399 INT next January to include it on your 2020 income.

AVOIDING THE PROBLEM NEXT YEAR This year's unexpected refunds caught long-term and the IRS by surprise. Make sure it doesn't happen again for your 2020 income. There are some steps you can take to avoid these delays in the future.

Adjust your withholding now. Assuming you will be in the same tax bracket next

year, you'll want to recalculate withholding from Social Security pensions and even from your required minimum distribution from retirement accounts. If you ever pay the government during the year, you may have a tough time getting the money back next spring.

Ask the IRS for an IPI PIN That's a six-digit number that helps prevent someone else from filing your return using your Social Security number. You get even PIN every year. You can get a through over IRS online account. It will help prevent identity verification when in the future. Note: The IRS will have to call you or text you asking for your PIN.

If you are getting a refund next year, ask for it to be good for your future tax obligation, instead of being refunded to your bank account. It seems that process is less likely to regain a request.

AVOID SCAMS This note of IRS changes it based on oral concerns about scams, and at the same time it is organized by new scams — or remember the IRS will contact you only by U.S. mail, not by phone or text. They have your basic information, so do not give out personal information for return mail, and do not send a IRS notice. You may re-sponsored balance without confirm, maybe demand a return from the IRS. And make sure you are signing into the correct website — www.fda.gov — and not a phishing one. The following is supposed to make the IRS more efficient. But the train about seems to be diverting some paperwork onto fewer staff. This needs a better fix. And that's the Savage Truth.

Don't put off making estate plan to help manage affairs

By Sandra Block KPLINGER'S PERSONAL FINANCE

During my long career in journalism, I was good at meeting deadlines, which made me popular with editors. You always filled my tax returns well before April 12. I went return my library books on time.

But when it comes to things that don't have a hard deadline, I'm less diligent. I often postpone mundane tasks, such as cleaning out the space cabinet because I don't have to worry about paying interest or penalties — or losing my job — if I put off having some special scams.

I suspect that fee cut off people, whose planning is being made surgery. It's something we've all aware we're supposed to do, but since we don't know when we're going to die, there's no specific deadline for completing this unpleasant task.

It's important to understand that creating an estate plan can't just about deciding who will inherit your assets after you're gone. Without a dream of downtrodle your finances and healthcare, your family could be forced to go on court to obtain the authority to manage your affairs if you become incapacitated.

MY CHECKLIST Now that I've come retired and definitely not getting any money back to the IRS, the process of getting my return in order. My first step is to go again on beneficiary designations. My husband and I don't have children, so I've named them in the beneficiary person and I'm not a student and other financial assets that aren't already jointly owned. But I need to add a second any beneficiary — also known as a contribution beneficiary — to obtain accounts.

A secondary beneficiary will inherit your assets if the greatest benefit can be decreased, and I'm sure that the first information is I that happens and there is no contingent beneficiary. Your assets will go into pockets — the legal process by which assets are distributed in accordance with the state's law. The multiple contingent benefit can be, or plan to designate some of the district's support.

My next step is to make sure our power of attorney for finances and healthcare are up to date. Many people believe married couples don't need these documents, but if you are incapacitated, there may be issues on what your spouse can do with jointly owned accounts without a PDA. The same goes for power of attorney for healthcare (also known as a healthcare proxy), which gives someone you trust the ability to make healthcare decisions. Your belief.

If you don't have an attorney, you can download the documents from websites such as Legal2com and Rocket Lawyer. It's a good chance have these documents notarized, even if your state doesn't require it, because financial institutions and hospitals may not recognize forms that aren't signed by a money.

You should also make sure that your financial service providers will finance your PDA for finances. Some institutions require you to use them on all files.

The final estate-planning task I need to be like to diverting up a will. Although beneficiary designations will provide for distribution of any financial accounts, both my financial and financial institutions that have a lot of sentimental value, and we need to think about what will happen to them after we're gone.

And I'm going to start getting rid of being I lost in the future, and I've never effect popularized by Marquess Magnuson, author of "The Society Art of Decade: Death Cleaning" Magnuson, who died earlier this year, said that he's listening to one of the greatest gifts you can know to your have.

Died to argue with that.

DREAMSTIME

America has millions of open jobs. So why can't people find work?

America's job would have a contradiction being in planning. Computer can't find enough workers, while millions of people are struggling to get hired. According to research, the U.S. seems to be heading toward what may be the largest labor shortage in its history. If there's a shortage that large, why does it feel like nobody can get hired?

A winning workforce. Part of the answer is in numbers most people don't see. The national unemployment rate is a high of 2 percent. But labor force participation, the share of adults working or looking, has dropped to 0.2 percent. More than a quarter of unemployed workers have been jobless for six months or longer. There are now more open jobs than unemployed people to fill them. So, it's a shortage of the right people who, in the workplace, with the right adults and including workforce as baby boomers retire and fewer young people replace them. The Society for Human Resource Manage-

ment found that roughly a third of the opening can't be filled by anyone whose most recent job was in a reduced field. Employers want very specific experience. Job seekers, especially recent goals with general degrees, often don't have it. The shortage will hit hardest in nursing and health care, skilled trades, construction, teaching, and pension manufacturing. These jobs require a physical presence, a license, or years of hands-on skill. The average life is a lot of these jobs too early, not because the work dried up, but because companies can't find enough trained, willing people.

How to navigate the shortage. So, where the chance? For employers, the old "post a job" and hope the right resume shows up! "Jaybook won't cut it. Instead, try promoting with local career and technical schools, investing in apprenticeships instead of waiting for fully licensed candidates. One striking one: 10 percent of IRS days must have no recording program aimed at workers over 45, despite a large, willing workforce. For job seekers, especially recent graduates, they paid several may require looking beyond the obvious. Instead of waiting for the perfect job that matches a high rate, explore adjacent fields, make certain that the most important job is to get a job. The opportunity that a degree alone opens down is failing. A degree will matters in many roles but the paths opening up look a little different than before.

SUCCESS

Get head start on funding college with 529 savings plans

Steve Nolan KIDS & MONEY

High school graduate and college are still years away for my five grandchildren, but I'm trying to make a dent now to ease the financial crisis.

The main way I'm doing that is through consistent contributions to their 529 college savings plans. For the past five years we send their birthday I make an annual contribution into those investment accounts to chip-away at college tuition and fees, room and board, laptops and all the other educational-related expenses. My grandkids' 529s are linked to 1ppb core, an online platform that makes it easy to make a contribution and track their

growth.

In addition to my contributions, other family members are pumping money into this kids' 529 accounts. Every dollar invested in their accounts means one less dollar to income more from now.

With 529s, you can set aside money that grows tax-deferred and withdraw it for free for qualified education expenses. And over the years, tax-free ones for 529s have expanded to include a broader range of educational expenses, including kindergarten through 12th grade schooling. Nearly all states offer a 30-plus, and you are free to invest in any of them whether you're an student or not. However, most states offer a less credit or deduction if you invest in your own state's plan. In addition to saving for college, money

can be taken out of 529 plans tax-free to make kindergarten through high school. Thanks to tax law changes that began Jan 1, you can withdraw up to $20,000 per year for this type of schooling, an increase of $10,000 from the previous year. More school expenses are also covered.

What if any of my grandkids don't end up going to college? The qualified user for 529 money have been expanded to include tuition, fees and other expenses associated with many degree credential programs. These qualified programs include plumbing, electric, at work and HVAC training. Unused 529 money can also be transferred to a sibling.

There's another option if you end up with leftover money to a child's 529 account. You have the ability to end up set up to a life-

time limit of $16,000 of the 529 balance tax and people free to the beneficiary's Roth IRA. Two courses: the 529 must have been held for the beneficiary for at least 15 years before you can make this move, and you can't roll over more than the Roth IRA contribution limit.

With those of my grandkids having summer birthdays, I already know what I'm going them – automatic contributions into their 529s. Of course, they still can't grasp the significance of having a 529 account so grammar 'pop' will still be making a trip to the toy store. Amnesty know where I can find some Neolinks!

REWARD OF REFORMED

Your coffee is college, don't miss out on freebies for seniors

By Kathryn Purnoy and Bob Neeth KIDS, INSLEY & VERTICAL, FRANCIS

Everything's getting pruier – food, healthcare, housing, you name it. Prince are climbing, and wallets feel the squeeze.

Thankfully, some things in life are still free (or mostly free) – senior discounts on everything from coffee to college.

We gathered a collection of the 10 best freebies for retirees. Bear in mind, some are strictly for those of a certain age, retired or not. Others are fit for retirees and people of any age.

PRESCRIPTION DRUGS

Tap into the first-hand database (www.nuscat.org/gazette); to find free or low-cost medications through pharmaceutical manufacturers' patient assistance programs. Not all drugs are included here. Some have eligibility requirements, such as income limits, and usually require that the applicant have no prescription insurance.

Some supermarket chains, including Made, Public Images, Family Fare, Sam's Club and more, offer select medications for free. Costco doesn't offer "free" prescriptions but does provide significant discounts of up to $50/s through the Costco Member Prescription Program (CMPP).

BPA has been the more than 15 medications on its site well-income (standard pharmacy costs) – and shipping is always free to all 50 states. You might also consider checking out TrumpDC – a relatively new site aimed at bringing major savings on essential medications.

Keep in mind that some of these chains require a membership (Sam's Club, Costco and Images), and you'll need a prescription from your doctor.

COLLEGE FURTHER

If you're still dreaming about going back to school, it's never too late to make that happen. Some states require state-supported charges and university to waive tuition for older residents, as long as there's space available in the class.

One example: The University of Kentucky and the University of Louisville are among 25 Kentucky colleges and universities that waive tuition for all residents 65 or older. Virginia does, too, for residents 60 and older.

Note: Some tuition waiver programs allow credit to be earned for the course; others only allow students to audit the course.

SERVICES FROM MEDICARE

You pay a Medicare premium each month. You might also pay an annual deductible and benefits, so you'll be doctor-visit, and prescription drugs. However, Medicare also

offers many services with no out-of-pocket costs.

From free-party wellness visits and national vaccines to online and screenings, and yearly mammograms, if you're on Medicare and not taking advantage of these free services, you're missing out.

Some freebies might not be available with Medicare Advantage, and there are limits on how often you can use a free service.

EYE CARE

Epitzen America, a public service program of the American Academy of Ophthalmology provides free non-moms and up to one year of care for any disease diagnosed during the exam.

This free service is available to anyone 65 or older who doesn't have private insurance and other medical or eye ballots that need three years. You must fill out a short survey to see if you qualify for the program.

ENTRY TO NATIONAL PARKS

Now you can take in the rights without paying a dime at some of our nation's most iconic National Parks, including the Great Smoky Mountains and Blue Ridge Parkway.

On several days throughout the year, seniors can get in time to all national parks that usually charge admission.

Several study park systems – among them Maryland, New Hampshire, New York and Texas – also offer older adults free admission or free annual passes. (Some passes require a small percentage fee.)

Don't forget about the Senior Pass, available for admission to all national parks. It's not free, but well worth the cost. The Senior Lifetime Pass is valid for your lifetime and costs $80. The Senior Annual Pass is valid for one year and costs $25.

E-WORKS, AUDIVISIONS AND MUSIC

Project Gutenberg, the University of Pennsylvania's Online Books Page, and Lifetime Guidelines, will provide download thousands of books that have expired copyright, including "Fair and Peace," "Moby-Ock" and "Little Women." You won't pay a dime. At different times of the year, you can also find free e-books on Amazon or through phone, and Noble. Titles change all the time, on some Sash offers.

Would you rather listen than read? The Libby app lets you access thousands of audiobooks free from your local library. You can sign up a word if you don't have a current library card, or check out titles from Digitalbooks, Open Library, ManyBooks and Load Books.

More into music? Check out music streaming services such as Paradox, HeartRadio and Spotify. All three offer some variation of a free subscription.

CREDIT REPORTS

Waking up to you often died credit card charges or a stolen identity is a nightmare.

A 2026 Experian report shows that half of consumers are concerned about online transactions and that seniors are the prime targets for these scams.

Fortunately, all three credit reporting agencies – Equifax, Experian and TransUnion – offer free weekly credit reports to consumers at AnnualCreditReport.com.

Check the errors or signs of fraudulent activity, such as the presence of a new credit card or loan that you never opened or a collection account for a debt that you don't owe.

PRINX FROM CREDIT CARDS

Speaking of credit cards, a national survey from AARP shows that nearly half of Americans ages 50 and a carry-over credit card debt from month to month, including credit card debt or an active, or even a carcersel card. If that's you, take advantage of some free benefits for carrying around all that assets.

For example, many of the best travel credit cards come with free rental car insurance, and some will cover the cost of your vacation if you have to cancel your trip or reimburse you for luggage that's lost, stolen or damaged during flights when purchased with an eligible card.

Other credit card parks include free extended warranties, free cellphone replacement and free museum admission. Contact your card issuer in find out which parks you qualify for.

CALL TO THE GRAMOKIDS

According to 2.0 Power, the average phone bill is right around $10 per month, featured puts the monthly figure a little higher, from $20 to $100. But those figures can vary depending on the carrier, plan type and additional features. Why would you want to pay more when calling your grandkids, family or friends?

To limit your landline costs or avoid using a cash between on your mobile phone plan, try using a free calling service such as Teams, Viber, Zoom or Top Orton.

All four allow you to make free calls to other cards of these same services, and all can be installed on mobile phones and computers.

COFFEE

Getting your coffee for every morning is important to your overall well-being (at least for many of us). And there are plenty of products, which I don't know how well it is some cases, thanks to loyalty programs, your morning cup of coffee could be free.

Multiple coffee chains offer rewards programs in which you can trade points for the first time. You can use the products, Durkin' (with its Durkin' Newland) and Perr's Coffee (with its Perr's Newland).

While each of these programs requires you to pay to stop, the perks (with an abusing free coffee down the road, it's free to sign up.

Watch out for these burnout warning signs in employees

By Peter Economy | IFC

One of the biggest media about burnout is that it happens suddenly if doesn't.

Burnout is usually quiet. It builds gradually through hundreds of small moments – another late night, canceled vacation, project that feels negative or work without meaningful results.

By the time someone says, "It's burned out," they've often been finding the way for months. The impact of all that burnout on your organization is probably a much bigger problem in your area.

Husband University professor Jeffrey Pfeffer and his team published ground-breaking research that showed the real impact of stress in the workplace. As they explained, "We find that more than 120,000 deaths per year and approximately 75 to 8% of annual deaths are cost over associated with and may be attributable to how U.S. companies manage their work forces."

This finding shows that poor workplace practices aren't just a leadership issue. They are a public health concern. The encouraging news is that employees usually share their warnings signs before they resign. Here are some to look for.

They stop bringing success ideas: One of the earliest signs of burnout isn't exhaustion. It's withdrawn. Employees who once offered suggestions begin sitting quietly in meetings. They contribute only what's required. Innovation gives way to compliance. That's not fastness. It's often emotional fatigue.

Their work stops good, but their enthusiasm disappears: You may have seen this one in your very-engaged place. An employee will perform a well-conditioned event. Customers remain happy. From the outside, nothing appears wrong, but the energy, engagement and enthusiasm are gone. People can maintain performance. Sing after they've been engagement. Burnout rarely begins when performance drops. It begins when hope does.

They become unusually cynical: You want your people to hit cash to challenge your ideas and contribute their own. That's valuable for you, your people, your organization and your customers. Permanent cynicism is different. Employees who once believed problems could not be defined as assuming nothing will change. That's often a sign they no longer feel their offer makes a difference. When people stop believing they can influence customers, the engagement usually follows.

Small frustrations trigger outside reactions: When one really patient employees begin reacting emotionally to relatively minor setbacks, it's worth paying attention. Sometimes the issue isn't the inconvenience to them if there, it's the months of accumulated stress behind it.

They stop talking about the future: I've noticed that engaged employees automatically talk about what's new, more project, a customer. they've excited about, I still they want to develop. Employees under persistent periods of stress rarely do. Their conversations become focused on receiving this work. That's an important difference.

One of the biggest mistakes you can make as a look at is assuming burnout is an individual resilience problem. In many cases, it's an organizational clarity problem. People can write and utilize your ideas they believe their work matters. But you support them, and tomorrow looks better than today. However, they struggle when every work feels like an outline to fit of urgency with no finish line.

The best leaflet don't wait until someone asks for help. You can use the open signals before the mitigation letter appears. Because by then, it's often too late.

Experts size up whether the Jeep Cherokee or Subaru Forester is the better hybrid SUV buy

By James Biwack | EDMUNDS

Two new hybrid SUVs have hit the market in the last two years from brands known for their stationary images: the Jeep Cherokee and the Subaru Forester. The Jeep Cherokee has been redesigned for 2026 after a three-year hiatus. Notably, every new Cherokee has a hybrid powertrain that gets more than 30 mpg.

The Subaru Forester, meanwhile, gained its hybrid powertrain option for 2021 and is better for it, improving that SUV's fuel economy, performance and refinement.

Both SUVs could be appealing if you're interested in a high-mpg SUV that can help you get out into nature on the weekends. Edmunds' auto experts tested both to find which one is a better fit for your needs.

FUEL ECONOMY AND PERFORMANCE

The Cherokee gets an EPA-estimated 37 mpg in combined city/highway driving. The Forester Hybrid gets a bit less at 18 mpg combined. This is a nice boost from gas-only SUVs – the regular Forester gets up to 20 mpg, for example. Other 10 d hybrid SUVs are capable of even better mpg, though these are often from wheel-drive versions that get slightly better fuel economy. The Cherokee and Forester Hybrid both come standard with all-wheel drive, with no option for front-wheel drive, the upside, however, you'll appreciate the extra traction if you do a lot of driving on slippery roads in the Watertime.

Both SUVs have decent power for daily driving. In Edmunds' testing, the Cherokee accelerated from now to 40 mph in 67 seconds. The Forester Hybrid needed 0.8 seconds. Edmunds' drivers did notice that the Cherokee's hybrid powertrain does a better job of keeping noise and vibration out of the cabin, resulting in a quarter driving experience.

Winner: Jeep Cherokee

COMFORT AND UTILITY

Edmunds' editors found that the Forester has a smoother ride over lounge and rests than the Cherokee. It also has more comfortable front seats that are easier to get in and out of. For long road trips, you'll probably prefer the Forester. The back seats are pretty similar in these SUVs, though. Both are comfortable for adults and have enough space to easily install child seats.

Edmunds found the Subaru Forester's very cargo area also like hauling your stuff, whether it be luggage, groceries or outdoor recreational gear. The Cherokee's cargo area isn't quite as recent, but it is still quite useful. Winner: Subaru Forester

TECHNOLOGY FEATURES

The Subaru Forester Hybrid may have a big portrait-oriented screen, but it's often frustratingly slow to boot up and suspend in your process on the on-screen buttons. Feature content is good, but again, execution matters. For example, the Forester's available wireless phone charging pad is made of hard plastic and isn't grippy enough

The 2026 Subaru Forester Hybrid, the small SUV that gained a hybrid powertrain option for 2021, gets an EPA-estimated 19 mpg combined. EDMUNDS

The 2026 Jeep Cherokee small SUV is all-rose and comes with a standard hybrid power train that gets an EPA-estimated 19 mpg combined. STELLANTIE

to keep a phone consistently in place if you take a sudden turn.

A similar situation exists with the Forester's driver assistance features. The Forester comes with a lot of them, but the way they work isn't great. For example, the adaptive cruise control can be slow to respond to changes in traffic, and the constant warning keeps to remind you to keep your hands on the steering wheel can get annoying. The Jeep's driver assist features are more sophisticated and enjoyable to use.

Response time can also be an issue for the Jeep's 12.5-inch landscape-oriented touchscreen, but the graphics look more modern. We also like that its available wireless phone charger grips onto a phone with tenacity and doesn't take up much space.

Winner: Jeep Cherokee

ON-ROAD AND OFF-ROAD DRIVING

Despite Jeep's off-roading separation, the Cherokee has low ground clearance than the Forester, and it lacks the sort of robust all-wheel-drive systems and off-road drive modes found in other Jeep models. A more rugged Cherokee variant, the Trail-

hawk, will debut for 2027, but for now, the specialized Forester Wilderness trim is the better bet for tackling a dirt road at trail.

Not surprisingly, then, the Cherokee is more at home on pavement. Its handling and wearing are merely overage, though, and suffers from an overly thick octagonal-like steering wheel that's awkward to hold. The Subaru is also substantially easier to see out of. Winner: Subaru Forester

PRICE AND VALUE

The 2026 Jeep Cherokee starts to $86,995, including destination, for its base trim. That's a bit more than the Forester Hybrid that starts at $36,190 for its starter Premium trim. Broadly, the Forester Hybrid comes with more features for your money as well. For example, the Forester has standard heated front seats and a standard power-adjustable driver's seat, while on the Cherokee, you'll have to get the next stop-up I am able to get those features. It's a similar story at the top of the lineup, where a fully loaded Cherokee will cost you about two grand more than the Forester.

Winner: Subaru Forester

Edmunds says: It's a close call between these two small SUVs. They both get good mpg and can serve you well in a daily driver. Overall, however, Edmunds recommends the Forester Hybrid. Its slight advantages in comfort, utility and value make it the better pick.

AUTO REVIEW

2026 Genesis G90 beats SUVs at luxury game

By Larry Printz TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

The 2026 Genesis G90 sedan rolls into a world that has collectively lost its mind, swapping full-size luxury sedans for SUVs that are basically suburban tree-braces on wheels. There things are tall, convenient and about as ubiquitous as that back. And yet here comes the G90, sporting four doors, a trunk and enough leather to upholster a small yacht club. One can almost picture the rattling ghosts of Cadillac DeVilles, Lincoln Town Cars and Chrysler Imperials touring from their tubed-volver, shag-carpeted masochrums. It's not that people stepped wanting a true full-size luxury sedan. No. Detroit just decided to pretend they did.

The suits with spread-sheets in their eyes wrote off luxury sedans decades ago. Ignoring they could help some leather on a pickup truck, call it an SUV, and charge you $10,000 extra for the privilege of sitting higher. Accumulate, not customers, are Detroit's real engineers.

And I sense? They've been watching their once-great. I'd not gather to the correct despotism to the party while looking like a half-method Kelvin's mask. Turns out, a luxury car is supposed to be beautiful and comfortable, as well as competent. Who know?

Genesis said, it hasn't lost its mind or its taste. Its designers and engineers remember that a proper luxury sedan is supposed to be 6 months or, are just look like you've got money. The G90 is strictly without ever tapping into pompous. Its edifice styling is a kind of modern modernism filtered through an American suitability. It's hold yet polite, muscular without looking like a bench-process understanding. It isn't a man's mind, but it has a stunningly original presence.

Comparing it to Cadillac, Lincoln and Chrysler luxury sedans of old is instructive. The old Cadillacs were loud and he used to their appetite for asphalt. Lincoln's work like a comfortable club chair

The Genesis G90 takes Cadillac's styling be made, Lincoln's ready serenity and Chrysler's ambition and refuse it through a European filter. The result is something that could pass for an American made European car without the attitude.

The two car was a high-end Prestige Black model, dressed in so much black trim it milled its elegance much like a missing tooth

raise a supermarket's smile. It's proof that no amount of money can polish away bad taste.

Climb inside, and Genesis delivers what Detroit used to before an constant doomed it to mediocrity. Namely, leather that smells like a welcome bag, wood trim that reminds you that someone spent an afternoon sanding with care, and technology to sophisticated it can probably negotiate a real estate deal on your behalf. Seats to live and massage, they adjust their temperature to keep you comfy. The power doors close at the touch of a button, while rear sunshades endage your wannabe celebrity status. Meanwhile, the infotainment screen is big enough to qualify as a second windshield, but unlike some, Genesis counterparts, it doesn't make you feel as if you're stepped into Times Square. And it's intuitive to use, unlike BMW and

Mercedes-Benz, who strap a Ph.D. as engineering to the driver's seat and expect you to consult it before you tap it.

Performance-wise, the G90 doesn't humiliate its passengers, but it won't embarrass its competitors either. It's fitted with a twin-turb/charged and supercharged 3.5-titer V-6 and limited powerstain that delivers 40V horsepower and 40T pound-feet of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission to all four wheels.

It accelerates like it knows that the speed limit exists only to be publicly acknowledged. Unlike a BMW, which will make you feel guilty for even a mile-per-hour over 50, or a Mercedes-Benz, which will lecture you while your black day presents, the Genesis simply glides forward with a med and a wink. The steering is precisely at forgiving more. Jauces than James Bond. It's not a BMW. M5 is

a suit, nor does it need to be. It glides with the composure of a statesman, and is an era of preludes and unpredictable pedestrians, that's a feat. Passengers remain likefully unaware of the city's cratins.

Paul economy is once-captured at 20 mpg, and it requires premium unleaded. But no one buys a full-size luxury sedan to advise it to fuel economy. Still, the hybrid option allows you to maintain the illusion that you care about the planet even as you thoroughly enjoy the 9-5-5 grows!

Ultimately, the G90 is less a car and more a state of mind: comfortable, confident and aware of its own dignity. In traffic jams, it does not rage. On the highway, it does not brag. It simply exists, quietly reminding you of a time when luxury meant civility, style, and a soft-ride rather than self-centered aggression and proof of your new-money status.

Driving it makes you nostalgic for the Cadillacs and Lincoln's of everyone, unraveling the BMWs and Mercedes-Benzs of today, and amazed that a naughty Genesis luxury brand has learned what Detroit sought to forget, the best of a public superiority.

In short, the 2026 Genesis G90 is the sedan the world has forgotten it still wants. It's not just a car, it's an argument against the idea that luxury must now come in the shape of a tall, overcompensating SUV. In the 2026 G90, Genesis isn't merely keeping up with history. They're publicly correcting it, and they do so with a 40-gun.

After all, Cadillac, Lincoln, Lexus, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz have produced some epic machinery. But Genesis is looking to do better. Considering the nearly non-existent competition, they might just do it — if the Chinese don't do it first.

Public art is everywhere in Chicago: Our 10 not to miss

By Mary Wisniewski CHICAGO TRIBUNE

It's summer in the city, which means taking every chance to be outside. Even Chicago's great museums seem claustrophobic when there are blue skies and a nice lake breeze.

Fortunately, if you want to see art in Chicago, there's plenty outdoors. Being around the city, I am always either running into unexpected treasures, like the aluminum 'Portage' by Ted Sitting-Crow Garner on Milwaukee Avenue near the Corners, or revisiting old favorites like Lorado Taft's 'Russians of the Great Lakes' outside the Art Institute. Along with a wealth of new public work on the campus of the Obama Presidential Center, there are also fun new temporary pieces, like the swimmer sculptures by Carole Feuerman along the Magnificent Mile through November.

'It's a beautiful thing when art exists outside of the museum walls,' said

Joni Sohar, a curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art. 'It creates a different relationship with artists and the artwork, and it becomes more integrated with everyday life.'

Rachel Sabino, a consecrator with the Art Institute of Chicago, said the city has an unusually rich collection of public art, especially in Great Park and the museum campus. 'There's an incredible density of sculpture... It's one of the things that makes Chicago and the Loop such a fantastic place for

visitors,' Sabino said. Here is our list of 10, in no particular order. Feel free to make your own.

THE PICASSO

Unveiled in August 1947 in what is now Daisy Plaza, Pablo Picasso's gift to the city was not an instant hit. Columnist Mike Roche thought the Cubist sculpture looked 'like some giant insect that is about to eat a smaller, weaker insect,' and marveled that the Spanish artist had seemingly captured

the city's soul. It's now a magnet for both tourists and schoolchildren — the latter enjoy sliding down its slanted bars. It's impossible to pass the 10-foot steel siddlet without mentally engaging with it, wondering what it represents. Here's hoping construction at nearby Chase Tower Plaza is over soon as we can see Marc Chagall's 'The Four Seasons' again. (At 50 W. Washington St. in the Loop)

Advice columnist Ann Landers, left, another twin sister, Abigail Van Buren, who wrote an advice column as Dear Abby, are shown in 1987. In Chicago, JOHN BARTLEY/CHICAGO TRIBUNE

After 'Dear Abby's' retirement, where are all the people getting their advice?

Rick Kogan

In 1987, the woman who was "Ann Landers" left the San-Timos, the home for her popular advice column for more than three decades, and came to work at the Tribune. The paper's star columnist, Mike Boyle, who had made a similar move three years before, was happy to have her. As he said, "I've glad this's here. Now, all those wackee who've been writing to me with their problems can write to her."

I remembered this because a couple of weeks ago, the advice columnist who was "Dear Abby" announced her retirement, writing in part. "I have always considered you, my readers, to be my friends.

You have taught me far more life lessons than I have ever taught you... When I began writing (the column) in 1987, I promised myself that when the time came to retire, I would stop aside to live life without a deadline... I love you all! It was signed "Jeanne Phillips alla Dear Abby".

Eppie Lederer, the woman who was "Ann Landers," died of multiple myeloma in 2002 at 65. Pauline Phillips, the original "Dear Abby," died in 2003 at 94, after battling Alzheimer's for more than a decade, and now her daughter is hanging it up.

So, what are all those "wackee" supposed to do now?

This is a question that has bedeviled editors as the number of newspapers has dramatically diminished and place to find advice increased, with online sites, radio call-in shows, TV gab bros, podcasts, book shelves pressing under the weight of the self-help publishing machine, encounter groups, self-empowerment seminars and every sort of (Addictive Behavior) Anonymous organization.

It was once simpler. As long as there have been problems, there have been people willing to offer advice. Free advice could always be had from tavern keepers, clergymen, neighbors or parents. Newspapers get into the game as a way to boost circulation, investing such things as comics and columns that addressed the concerns of the troubled. Advice, for the price of a paper.

These columns usually took the form of dealing with issues of love and romance. Though they dislikely with the problems of a few, for most they provided initiation or made people feel better about themselves, as in "At least there's someone worse off than me."

For more than a century, readers have been writing to newspapers. Some have written to complain,

American columnist Pauline Phillips, commonly known by her pen name Abigail Van Buren, on July 28, 1962. EYENING STANDARD/GETTY

some to praise. But most have written asking for advice about life's weakness and troubles, or to share their observations on life's sadness and joys. Ann Landers got some 2,000 every day.

She and her staff would do their best to personally answer every one, though only three or four a day were answered in print, thus fostering the most intimate relationship to exist between newspapers and readers.

You can still find advice columns in newspapers (the Tribune features Asking Eric, written by screenwriter B. Eric Thomas), but consider that at

the height of the "Ann Landers" and "Dear Abby" popularity in the 1960s, they were the most widely read columnist on the history of American journalism.

In some ways they were different — some characterized "Ann Landers" as more serious than "Dear Abby," who was considered quicker with one-liners, for instance — but in a most essential way they were exactly alike.

They were twin sisters, the Friedman girls, born on the Fourth of July in 1918 in Sioux City, Iowa, father. Pauline (Ann Landers) and, 17

minutos later, Pauline Esther (Dear Abby).

As kids, they were nicknamed "Eppie" (Esther) and "Pepsi" (Pauline) and were comparable. In the Mammals White, their Central High School's 1936 yearbook, the twins were seniors that year, and this is what they wrote under one another's photos: "Always with Eppie" and "Always with Pepsi." Two days before their 21st birthday in 1939, they were both married at a ceremony so lavish that it was covered by the local paper.

They went their separate ways for a time and then in 1955 Eppie began writing the "Ann Landers" column in the San-Timos, taking over from the late Ruth Cowley. She recruited her name, thus being outside San Francisco, to help.

That arrangement ended a few months later when Pepsi persuaded the San Francisco Chronicle to let her write an advice column under the byline Abigail Van Buren (aka "Dear Abby").

This caused some familial troubles, exploding in a 1958 Life magazine article titled "Twin Loveless Advisors Teen Anander by Success." Over the years, the relationship had its ups and downs, in lengthy eifences. But the competition

between the two was good for circulation. Each would be carried by more than 1,000 newspapers (some, such as the Tribune for a time, carried both) and eventually each (aimed 90 million daily readers worldwide.

It's nice to know that they overcame the troubles and were in close contact — mostly fusing each other daily notes, comments, lots of family news and gossip — until Eppie's death.

Death came calling again while I was thinking about Eppie, Pepsi and the whole advice matter with the mid-July news of the death of Eppie's only child, the smart, vivacious and glamorous Margo Howard. Married these times and the mother of three adult children, Margo died in mid-July at 86. She was a mean of fifty-priest, raised here, and a writer for our city's newspapers for a while. For a time she got into the advice game, writing him's "Dear Prudence" columns.

I got to know Margo pretty well when I was her mother's editor for the last five years of her life. During that time, Eppie often talked about the balance of advice and I can still hear her saying, "Some of the letters are so sad. It'll couldn't insulate, more tell. I'll have gone to justice."

And I can read something she once wrote: "The fact that my column has been a sad, excruciely scroce for me, at least, the central tragedy of our society. The loneliness, the insecurity, the fear that bedwells, cripples and pardiness so many of us."

The exhibition 'Alberto Aguilar' (cut) really want to tell you this one thing is currently on one at the Chicago Cultural Center, including his 'Hand-Held Series 11/5, 2024-12, 28, 2024.' 2025. PATRICK LIPYSZKAPNOTOS

REVIEW

Alberto Aguilar has a lot to say and he is saying it at the Cultural Center

Lori Waxman

'I just really want to tell you this one thing' is the misleading title of Alberto Aguilar's solo exhibition at the Cultural Center. One of the most reliably delighted artists on the Chicago scene for the past two decades, Aguilar actually has a lot to say about games and rules and translation and collaboration and signs. It's fuzco hitter, and even more to figure out ways of playing along.

The show features art from two totally distinct periods in Aguilar's career. Works made between 1997 and 2002 as conventional paintings. Work made between 2020 and 2026, like everything Aguilar has done since he gave up being a painter, is anything but.

It really doesn't matter that his old canvass look mostly financed and insidious; that's not here to be appreciated but as the first valley in a much of collaborative artmaking, which is how Aguilar now rolls. The game began when Aguilar invited 11 artists of his acquaintance to choose one of his old compositions and freely remake it. Stand-outs include Maria Burundarena's disco photostatic twist on a quartet of history about music, Isosian Katz's exuberant explosion of a somewhat flurry found object construction and cubistic picture; and Cecilia Bonner's animation of my favorite Aguilar, a Magiditappa Kitchen scene rendered sketchy and monstrous in Bonner's jingish hands.

A contribution from Jonas Mikloski-Müller-Ahlheim not only play the interpretation game well that also parsons up a decidedly ponderous space. The Cultural Center's 4th floor Exhibit Hall stands proud and faith Müller-Ahlheim's off on Aguilar's 'Conservation' blows its cartoons you up into two giant paintings, hung high on other side of the gallery. This echoes a pair of permanent broken, lock reliefs and, even better, turns the gallery into a monumental smiley face, the main entrance a mouth through which visitors stream like so much charter. Aguilar himself challenges the Exhibit Hall in ways that take their sweet time being noticed. Five hundred and forty-eight inches of grey blood tops, purchased at an

While in residence at Centro-Romero in Edgewater, Aguilar taught a group of teens about the work of Aico, a Los Angeles Chicano collective active during the 1970s and '80s, whose most iconic work involved duct-laging themselves to a rock

estate sale, trace the entire perimeter of the gallery, following buildings, looping around doorways, climbing over temporary walls, and ending in an envelope ball begging to be bathed around. Sculptures whimsically assembled from chairs, lamps, and a filing cabinet pulled from Cultural Center storage got ripped off by floor tape that cleverly extends the artworks themselves, spending standard immersion practice while also sticking to it. Diagonals assert themselves everywhere, including a mural-size line of deconstructed hand-painted party hats picked up on a trip to Cuba.

The overall tone harmonizes with that of Aguilar's practice generally embraces gordinos and the stuff of daily life, go-aiding, work with who and what you've got, be smart and diligent but not too self-serious.

Aguilar's many collaborations bear out these principles. A project under taken during the COVID-19 quarantine consisted of him instructing his four kids to draw Dad from memory in one go, no retailers, and him doing the same, but with the added constraint that he sketch each child in the number of minutes equivalent to their age. Limits often add intrigue for makers.

Other portraits in the exhibition

proceed alternately. Some emerge unequivocally, like a wall filled with self-portraits left behind by students at the end of the semester at the college where Aguilar touches; their reliance of interest arises from accumulation and rearrangement. Everything about 'Instant Youth Mural (After Acc)' is knowing at Centro-Romero in Edgewater, Aguilar showed a group of teens the historic work of Aico and they decided to pose their own version of the Los Angeles Chicano collective's most iconic piece – so they duct-taped themselves in a brick wall.

Work for hire fits here too. For 'Familiar Forms,' Aguilar contracted Southwest Signs, a family-owned business near Midway Airport, to explain his designs he faces composed of apostrophes, exclamation marks, xeros and other elements common to the handmade grocery store posters that are their specialty. Also created with Southwest Signs is a saint site on a tree of Mark Rothko color field paintings in the collection of the Art Institute. The result would not be out of place to speculate shop window, with the addition of the sale price for apples.

The Rothko remakes are instructive. Aguilar, unlike

his predecessor, doesn't do transcendence. He steps go unaided firmly in everyday life but determines to somehow improve it. One means of doing so is figuring out how to make art daily, a useful approach being rules, common make sale and brevity. 'Hand-held works,' from a six-week period at the end of 2024, consists of 16 photographs of the artist's left hand endlessly modified, with plant leaves, pairs of scissors, a budmanner racket, an orange pool, coins, a ballpoint pen, etc. 'Drawing in Passing,' from a one-month period in 2020, comprises super-simple drawings on white and yellow mini legal pool paper with pots, pencil, tape and scissors. These sometimes include their own instructions. MELHORSE/CUT/BOFFATE ends a sheet to which Aguilar has done just that.

Aguilar has been investing those sorts of basic, accessible, potentially endless series for years. Like most of what he does, they display little virtuosity, but it turns out that virtuosity comes in forms sometimes unrecognizable from past eras of art history. Newer alibians, of Aguilar's mastery, help turn art into life and life into art, all of it the better for it. If Aguilar really wants to tell us one thing, I'd vote for that.

Maria Burundarena and Ricardo Vilas Freire are two of the artists who remake old pictures by Aguilar. Burundarena created the pole-lit mural. Freire the fringed animal-headed painting.

The exhibition includes sculptures made from stored institutional furniture, a trio of Mark Rothko remakes done with Southwest Signs and a dozen of Aguilar's old paintings reinterpreted by other artists.

Aguilar has collaborated with Southwest Signs for years, a local company that produces hand-painted grocery store sale posters. Plays or words are a favorite subject.

Resist piecing together author's life from books

Riley's new emotionally guarded narrator mired in magazine drama

By Theology La Force THE NEW YORK TIMES

Like many of the entertain in her books, British writer Gwendolyn Riley is a organ. She was rated by the leading class single mother and gave up master in the number one of England She is obsessed with the music in 1964.

She wrote 'First Love' and 'My Phantoms' are quite like those of them and misery in domestic settings. They are told with price, men and no air for dialogue. Because of that, it is a tempting to try to prove together details of Riley's life from her writing.

'First, 'Riley said. 'If I just say, I mean.'

Riley, 87, began her career in her native England as a bit of a wonderkind, publishing her first book at 22 years old and follow up to go with seven more. A couple had been published over a decade ago in the United States. Yet it wasn't until 2023 - when New York for new books Chinese published 'My Phantoms' about a English mother-daughter relationship, and 'First Love', a cast over of course, was a major issue in the book. It was, enthusiastic American audiences, mostly composed of stylish, literary-minded women who are not accompanied by an a shrewd but sympathetic friend with who would be could get about their love. However, a dry startete.

Yet the work contains dramas not totally Nothing of could of conveyance.

'The book is depressing as hell, but impossible to turn away from.' Singper and love life! [both] should work in 'My Phantoms' in The Cell in 2024.

In an event, author thinks He's explained Riley's appeal the way 'Her vision is very rearrangementing, and her view of the world is

very black, very un-American, not pleasing and hopeful and warmhearted - but she's not fashionably sweet or jaded, either, and the 'books don't seem a contemporary comedian.'

'The language of Riley's sharply observed, emotionally guarded break narrator's 'a set the language of right now.' He'd added, 'and all of this is exciting. She tells the truth in her own way, and many writers don't tell the truth, and if they do, they can't tell it in their own way.'

With her latest novel, 'The Palm House,' Riley wanted to stop outside the domestic sphere of the novel - which was recently announced as a nominee for this year's Booker Prize - to use the intense law drama of a highbrow magazine of class whose new editor-in-chief wants it to be 'a sort of London version of The New Yorker.' It's told from the perspective of a writer named Jane, whose classic work found it an older man, Edmund, the deputy editor who has resigned in opposition to the new regime.

Her tender encounters are interspersed with

sexties from Laura's youth, involving her dancer relationship with her mother.

'Riley was partly inspired, she said. In Penelope Fitzgerald's 1979 Booker Prize-winning novel 'Offdown,' 'A drama in minimum set among a cluster of house-houses,' 'I wanted a little collection of people working somewhere,' she said during an interview this spring in London, 'doing something that's a little bit under siege. Or Nazi hooded them. Or a bad editor.'

Riley was one married to English poet Alan Jenkins, who was the deputy editor of The Times's Jersey Supplement until 2020. They divorced in 2023. Like Laura, she lives in Ravenscourt Park. She wakes up, has coffee and wines. 'I can't think of a way to make that other than it is,' she said. 'Yeah, I do these things.'

Returning personal details from Riley requires a penitence. 'I'm not talking you,' she said when asked if she had ever undergone pen冬校进修. Asked about the term 'autistic love' and if she gained to her home, she's been writing, she said, 'That phrase is kind of old fashioned, now, so it?'

'Writing for Riley is both enough for me and a little bit of the time.' Animal instinct, honestly, she said, 'I found out the other day that he even can't stand the stand of running water. Remember, it's what I am. I just do my thing, and then do it again.' She tidens until, she said, 'something will sound right, and then it will still sound right the next morning.'

She was always drawn toward books. 'It's what there was to do,' she said. In 'Opposed Positions,' her 2022 book about evening female writer adrift, the narrator's mother remem-

By John Warner

FOR THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE

I keep a list of writers I have never read but would like to.

The list is long and grows longer each year, though occasionally. I'm able to check off a name, and I'm notly disappointed in that sense.

I recently checked off a name that had been present for almost a decade. You, my gentle reader, should not wait so long to become acquainted with this writer, if you have not yet encountered his work. Domenico Starnone.

Starnone is popular, long-respected, and we are witnessing in his native Italy, the author of more than 20 novels, and the subject of failed rumors that he is behind the past names of Elena Ferrante, author of the Biopolitics Novel.

I read "Trust," published in the U.S. in 2023 and translated by Rodrigo Lallahi, herself as accomplished novelist and short story writer. "Trust" is short, less than 140 pages in the edition. I read, but it manages to cover many years in the life of its protagonist, Pietro, a teacher and writer, who by all external evidence is a good man, but who, ostensibly, have their heirs a smutater.

The author's story based in three "stories," each narrated by a different character, starting with Franco. It opens with a

recounting of Pietro's tumultuous relationship with Teresa, a former student whom he'd been deserved from the beginning and who initiated a relationship with Pietro once he won to longer her teacher.

The relationship is passionate but doomed. Amid a few of recent diaries following a particularly terrible fight, Teresa proposes a not-of-four formal. They will each tell the other something awful that they have done, something as awful that for it to be revealed would be rational to the other.

Tomas goes first, hosting Pietro speech loss at what he's heard, though the reader is not made prior to either of their stories. Pietro unleads his own burden, "first in fragments, then in greater detail, I didn't want to stop talking; she was the one who told me to stop."

Several days later, they break up under mutual agreement.

Wharton Writes has done and told to Teresa looms over the rest of the novel, though it is not a spell or to say that the reader is never left in on the secret. "Trust" is not that kind of novel. What it is, is a map of a man's interest as he goes on to marry, have children, become a surprise-good-credibility on names of education, and wash out the same generation of students, even as he wonders about this secret he's given to someone else.

His wife Nadia is the opposite of Teresa: she is engaged to someone else when Pietro makes his dance known. She ultimately comes to her life, and we are only evidence of Pietro's greatest strength, a kind of charm that draws others to him. This includes his editor and a publicist to whom he gives perhaps two-lives, and even a trial who once attacked Pietro's ideas at a public forum but becomes one of his closest friends.

The second, much shorter story is narrated by one of Pietro's daughters who had become a journalist and decides that he is deserving of a national honor for important educators and partners. Teresa, Pietro's most successful student and who has gone on to academic fame in the U.S., as someone to give us in person testimonial at the ceremony.

The third, even shorter story is Teresa's, adding fresh complications.

This short tale is simultaneously emotionally expansive and undeniably tense.

The power of the novel is in asking us to wonder if there is not some monster in every one of us.

ART

(from Page E)

Memorial in Washington, DC. It's a marble Doria column topped by an eagle, with robots around the base depicting Native Americans, explorers, farmers and laborers designed by Evelyn Beatrice Longman, a pioneering woman sculptor. I love it not just for itself but its location – atop a park full of trees and foot traffic, with musicians and skans bear ihre. Now lighting is closer to the "color temperature" of the original early 19th-century lamps, said babies - "It really enhances the sculpture." (At 3200 W. Logan Blvd. in Logan Square)

LORADO TAFI'S 'FOUNTAIN OF TIME'

This massive steel-conferred concrete sculpture, more than 124 feet long, was finished in 1929 at the western edge of the Mulkey Plaisance in Washington Park. Father Time faces 100 figures, including children, soldiers and lovers. It is overwhelming in the best way – a wave of people moving through history. (At 6000 E. Cottage Grove Ave. at the Mulkey Plaisance)

MAGDALENA ASAKANOWICZ'S 'AGORA'

Installed in 2006 and composed of 106 headless, arndesa figures made of running iron, this installation by Magdalena Abakanowicz hits differently depending on how I see it. When I'm with company, it seems comic over, useful, a celebration of urban bustle. When I'm alone, it makes me feel like a saved little kid, I am in a crowd. (At 1135 S. Michigan Ave. in South Grant Park)

HEBRU BRANTLEY'S 'FANTASYC FLYING LIL MARIE'

Also known as "Flygirl," this joyful Hebru Brantley figure depicts a little girl with goggles and high-top sneakers burning out of a cloud. Installed in 2024 near a mound of Black horses, she fronts a place that hosts special events. Destiny Wilkerson, co-owner of the Spill the Beans coffee shop across the street, said she likes to look at "Lil Marie" out her window. "It makes it seem like the future is bright - it's really cool." (At 3215 W. Chicago Ave. in Austin)

THE ULYSSES S. GRANT MONUMENT BY LOUIS KREISKO

"Here-on-honolock" sculptures may be old-fashioned, but this one is special. At the time of its completion in 2001, the 18-foot-tall figure was the largest bronze statue cast in the U.S., depicting the general who helped win the Civil War. In 2021, an announce-

ment that the statue was under review for possible removal was led by a flood of criticism from Keterman. I love how the statue went above the park and seems to guard it. (At 2045 N. Lincoln Park W. in Lincoln Park off Lake Shore Drive)

JENNY KENDLER'S 'BIRDS WATCHING' ON THE BLOOMINGDALE TRAIL

This 60-foot-long steel and aluminum sculpture shows the eyes of 100 different bird species that are either threatened or endangered by climate change, and is to Cha age artist Jenny Kendler. Installed in 2016, the sculpture is colorful but also can make you uneasy. You are always being observed. And judged. (West of the 60th Trail entrance at 1700 N. Spalding Ave.)

WORLD'S FAIR BISON IN HUMBOLDT PARK

This male and female pair was originally designed for the 1893 World's Fair in plaster by Edward Kemerys, who also did the Art Institute feces. The feces were recast in bronze and eventually found a home in Humboldt Park. I love them because they seem so incongruous in the park's formal garden, ghosts of Chicago's pre-urban past, emerging near tally flower beds. (Near 3000 W. Division 8) and the east entrance to Humboldt Park's formal garden)

THE CTA GARFIELD GREEN LINE STATION

The CTA has 80 installations, and picking just one to feature is hard. There are the David Lee Cuicilo resource at Belmont; the Mexican history may als at 18th Street, and the Theater Gates' america, america's tapestry of decommissioned fire hoos at 19th Street. On Baker's advice, I went with Nick Cora's 2018 "Free Normal" mix of floral tile mosaics and pillars at the Garfield Grove Line station, done in collaboration with designer Bob Faust. It takes you out of your surroundings and into a dreamy jungle. (At 320 E. Garfield Blvd.)

ART INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO GARDENS

The South Garden of the Art Institute has the marvelous "Fountain of the Great Lakes," while the North Garden includes Alexander Calder's red "Flying Dragon" and Simone Leight's "Bustle." The latter piece, installed in 2024, is a 9-foot-tall bronze woman, deep in thought. The gardens are among the best places in the city to read, set your lunch, and consider life beyond the ordinary. (At 1215 S. Michigan Ave.)

"Quart" is one of a series of swimmer sculptures by artist Carole Feuerman along North Michigan Avenue in Chicago. Ten displays in the outdoor art exhibit will line the MagicEvent bike through November. BRIAN CASSELLA/CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Moana Mania more than just love for film

Nuanced narrative, catchy songs drive kids' repeat viewing

THE NEW YORK TIMES

Rory Henry, a 2-year-old in Fort Worth, Texas, is in the grip of an obsession.

Her face weched Henry's animated Polynesian princess movie, "Moana," around 40 times in the past year and a half. She has a pig for it the singer of Pan, Minnie's sidekick. A karaoke microphone that plays a song from "Moana 2' And "Moana" dresses, sunglasses and hair clips

Rory's mother, Stacey Henry, 38, and her father have to be careful about using the "M word" around the house, Henry said.

"She immediately got her very serious eyebrows on and saw 'Broad' me heart, Henry said, with a laugh.

Rory is hardly alone. Since its theatrical release in 2016, "Moana," which is the first time in the 2000s, that chief who goes on and says to new her related from district, has become the most worded movie of all time in Disney — it has been streamed for more than 1,000 live hours, the superstar of playing 'How Far I Was' on repeat for more than 700 minutes. Both 'Moana' and 9, 2016 expand, 'Moana 2' are among Disney's Top 10 highest-grossing animated films.

In what is responsible for the offs from that hundred of parents on social media have turned Moana Mania? It's a middle that has probably alls and more hams. Just thanks to the secret release of the live-action "Moana," which brought back Jan Mania's Miranda as a song writer and the show, Pewyear. References that make her previously voiced, the changed ideas.

The songs in almost every Disney animated musical film released in the past 40 decades have been a danger

Moana, left, and Max are among the characters in the animated film, "Moana," which has become the most-watched movie in Disney's DISNEY

to parents' peace and quiet. There was 'You're Welcome' the jazzy Pity-nature show later that Johnson sang in 'Moana' and 'I'm It Go.' She's hardestness of a self-acceptance problem from 'Frozen,' and 'We Don't Talk About Me too' from 'the same,' another rollicking Miranda number that missed sales with Latin pop.

In each case, Disney delivered an age-old formula. Take a narrative with broad appeal, wrap it in books and often add words like news and tap. Grand Annual Russell, a professor of marketing at Pepperdine University in Malibu, California, means that why people like to consume the same stories over and over again. There is a name, she said, for the urge to seek the comfort that comes with a six things beloved above: the paradox of choice.

The concept, which was created by the psychologist Barry Schwartz as his 2016 book of the same name, under his a pleasant, even sometimes called the Chinese menu effect. When

there are too many options, we often revert to a choice that's familiar. She having so large, his best again.

"It's the one thing that you know for sure you're going to like," Russell said. "The pull is particularly strong with children, said Tom White, a child psychologist who doesn't like fearless for the Science of Early Years & Youth at the University of East London. She says those of a familiar narrative can help children's house process information, build predictions and master the rhythms of language."

The secret spot for maximum learning, he said, has some where between knowing exactly what's going to happen and not being able to predict what's coming next. "Psychologists sometimes call this the Goldshock scene," he said.

But once young children have less experience to drive from, they're able to reach this zone either with a narrative that is productable or with a more complex story. Like "Moana" that has become familiar through repeated viewing.

"What looks mind-m麼ingly repetitive to us and, from the perspective of a 5-year-old boy, he exactly the right level of challenge," he said.

Each evening shows children to strengthen and refine their predictions. He said, & first, they may simply learn the broad outline of the story. Later, they pick up on emotional expressions, tales, motives, vocabulary and subtle relationships between events.

"In a sense, they are running the same experiment again and again, but extra things are information each time," he said.

Which means of me, for a nuanced narrative like "Moana" — with its formal multidimensional story, are — parents might want to make peace with mentioning the lyrics to "You're Welcome" and "How Far I Was."

"The more complex the comment is, and the roaming the brain, the more you have to re-watch something until it becomes too predictable, and you stop learning from watching it," he said.

This cognitive feedback

loop high explain why children don't just re-watch films. They also ask to hear the same book repeat. Why, most on eating this same book, wear the same clothes and sometimes delight in designing the same process in the floor 20 times in any country.

"From an adult perspective, nothing new is happen on," he said. "But from the child's perspective, they are nothing and tearing thousands of tiny predictions every second."

But why "Moana" specifically, and not, say, "Brave" or "Tangled"?

It's a triple threat, Russell said. The film features a protagonist "who isn't your typical friends. Cinderella with blue eyes," a theme of empowerment and "catchy songs and fates on that are just pure joy."

The fear have may be the most significant. Meran did take into a soundtrack is stacked with a new one like "You're Welcome," "We Know the Way" and "How Far I Was," which won a Genuine Award.

Meran after songs can greatly help make a narrat-

ive irresistible, Russell said. "You don't necessarily need to re-watch a nuanced to resolve in the film experience," she said. "You can hear a song from it on the radio and still get all the positive emotions associated with something."

The music is one reason many parents themselves are hooked on all the wralking and singing. Kristo, Max Marius, Lizzola, it's a family blogger who lives in Manila in the Philippines, admits to e-watching the film with her husband on occasion after her daughter, Visi Marius Lizzola. A big game to feel. Her husband, has the songs on his favorite playlist, she said, and will sing along even when he's alone in the car.

Marius Lizzola also appreciates the film's positive message for her daughter.

"I love teaching her that being strong, Brave! I mean being perfect," she said. "It means having a good heart, caring for others, reaching for your goals even if it means you're so good. As a mom, I think that's a lesson for me as well."

Smith adds to 'candle' sparking love of music

Singer returns to theme of spirituality in crafting 'devotional' album

THE NEW YORK TIMES

"Brook me open, so I can keep repending," Willow single in "She's My Bump" part. She opening song of her weekly release by "The Thread." It could be a dubious statement.

Willow's music keeps getting more singular, more complex, more obvious, more virtuous and further away from any nearly defined genre. With "The Thread" — her eighth solo release in 11 years, and her second album of 2020 following February's "Fetal Rock Black" — Willow is almost satisfied with her progress.

"You like I'm just now getting to the point to where I actually really like and love the music that I'm creating," Willow Smith, 25, said in a recent interview.

"Before, I just felt like I was kind of stumbling in the dark," she said. "And I still am. But now I've got a candle, and that candle is the technical time that I have spent with my instrument and with my voice. I just keep on adding to that little candle. But I feel like I have been a little longer."

Willow has gone above and beyond to prove herself. Ao the daughter of a Hollywood power couple, rapper and actor Will Smith and actor Jack Philpot, and a 1st show of the same, many advantages. She was also, inevitable, in the public eye.

"My desire to be diligent comes from my wanting to offer something to the world if I'm going to be in this position," she said. "Obviously I have so much perspective on the world. I've been born into 'That is something that I cannot ignore. But the psychological effect of being in that environment is also some-

thing that I can't ignore. As time has gone on, I have just learned to be, like, two things can be true at the same time.

"There's the privilege that I have being born into this family. And from the other thing in the psychological and emotional impact of being born in and family — being nutritional and analytical."

Willow has always had connections. She got movie roles as a child — as early as 2007, when she appeared alongside her father in 'I Am Legend.' From 2018 to 2020, she joined her mother and her grandmother, hosting 'Red Table Talk,' a weekly online series for Facebook that delved into proverb and social issues.

When a young Willow will hear parents she wanted to go into music, they took her seriously. She had voice lessons, piano lessons and ballet training, where she heard a fiasco at music daily. She enjoyed the speed and none of heavy metal when she traveled on tour with her mother's head-rock head, Wicked Wickers, in the early 2000s. She also waved up her father's hip way and that she was with jazz, male-rock and more. All of it would be too into her own music.

Willow was just 9 years old when she was signed to the Nation, but 25 didn't like she. And Moana's "Let beard's Hot 100 with her debut single, 'What My Hair, I ask it directly, sell off it using R&B song that was written for him." She was playing aroma opening for Austin Belten. Partway through the itinerary, she was exhausted. She asked to speak out her father insisted she fulfill her contract. She didn't feel in an act of youthful defiance. She 21-year-old "What Your Hair" got shamed her head.

Willow was determined to become a songwriter, not just a singer. At 14, she took up guitar, an instrument she have spurned, studied ever since, often practicing for hours a day. "I have learned in the last couple years that practicing is really the only thing to be doing," she said. "The technical relationship that I have with my instrument is just going to open up so many more doors than I ever thought was possible."

Under the name Willow, she became returning to a lot on SoundCloud, mingling electronic sounds, male rock and R&B. "Creativity is my voice," The multiplicity it speaks to me is in my home," she sang in the all-vox of 'Words.'

Her adult voice was emerging, a supple, wide-ranging, precisely pitched instrument that can deliver husky intimacies, translucent地区 tracked harmonies, booty rock shears and rapt, excellent in cantistics.

On her 2018 debut album, 'Arrhythmias!' teamed after Arrhythmias (similar, as early) learned species), the 14-year-old Willow insisted, "I'm just a little girl, I've looked mighty." The album continued the sparse representation of her SoundCloud tracks, but also included "Walt a Minnie," a rotating R&B tune that precludes it. "I tell my confidence in the sixth dimension." For that song, throth's has obtained nearly 1,500 hits streams.

Willow's name albums are the same in more recognizable styles: introspective indie-rock on "The Set" in 2017, mellow one-way on "Willow" in 2018, including, tuneful pop-punk on "The Anxiety," in 2020, collaboration with Plan Cobb's "Landy I Feel Everybody," (2022) and "Coping Mechanism".

"Every song, I'm singing to the holy mystery and giving praise," Willow Smith, seen in July in Calabasas, California, says of "The Thread." MAURENN-BADULT/THE NEW YORK TIMES

(2022). But Willow came fully into her own with her 2nd album, "Empathogen," and its expanded version, 'Ceremonial Contralict (Empathogen) Booklet.'

Browngs deal with 'the chase kettle,' in Willow stage in 'Forward Last She' — a young scenario, brainstorm, intrusive thought and determined after one-working and extreme-honest. "I have nothing feeling — can't that 'em down so far' on me," she finds every dinghy, space-paint place. It looks like albums climactic song, "Big Feeling!"

On "The Thread," Willow pushes past the outset; one confusion she used to sing

about. Instead, she focuses on a subject that also runs through her previous albums' spirituality. "I went into this album wearing the official purse to be 'liven bread.'" she said. "Each and every song, I'm singing to the holy mystery and giving praise. I think more than music is devotional, but I extend our upc-off, only with that in mind."

The spirituality is notable, instrumental. For instance, "She's My Religion" is "my love song to the cosmic mother," Willow said. "In the modern day, I feel the present had similar levels in the fashion taken precedence in the forefront of society. But in almost every single culture on this Earth, going back into probatory times,

there is this divine mother an lawyer."

The 'Middlesex' of the album is message, Willow said, is in "The Present Moment," which declares, "Companion is the medicine we seek." It's a rare, slumish found, with a laughing, conceptual model and an exciting intertwined vocals. Despite its inter-cause, "I feel like all the songs in the album are further hanging," Willow said. "And that song, I really want to play it at a festival. We're outside, and everyone can just feel like, we're tougher the, that makes it energy. Present Moment is definitely like, I feel! not only feel found in the crowd and cried at Willow's show. That's a dream of mine."

Horoscopes

If August 9 is your birthday: 2026 that far may have challenged you. You may pull looks and for the remainder of the year. First up could come some high-ins (licht) on the next steps for your year-end through life. Now after some worry could arise but could be dismissed if there are no new problems.

Aries (March 21-April 20): Greatness could find the article guilt-free vs. time-savertising for, don't let brief anxiety diminish the breakthrough. You could have moved past some discouragement about your future environment.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Negative feelings might move through before there's even time to assure or talk about them. A financial mat is might bear discussion.

Senses (May 21-June 20): A practical matter could drive some frustration if the solution is not apparent or people aren't taking it seriously. If you're found a solution to one of life's common problems by 20 hours there.

Cancer (June 21-July 22): Don't let discouragement or criticism take hold, these feelings could pass in just a few hours and more pleasant feelings should

naturally arise. A money matter could become important, a new way forward could emerge.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Your path to your purpose may have become clearer. Do you take this fateful first step? Don't let fear stop you, bring on your right path in where there is no unnecessary pain or problems, and where there's the most support from the Universe.

Vege (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You can work in the foundation for outer abundance in all things. Because the vibration, the tuning fork, emitting the energetic you seek, makes it naturally hard to form.

Aries (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Social anxiety could be up for you too, but for different reasons than for Vege, above. Don't let yourself go into feelings based on something unknown.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 23): Carry or another worldly involvement may have been up and down, a recent breakthrough should still carry you a hit. Don't let unfounded worries tank your energy or enthusiasm. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 23): There are always new things to learn which can help you. But online or net, be aware that some

people profit from whipping up fears. Ask yourself if you're consuming that no too bad to manipulate you.

Capricorn (Dec. 23-Jan. 23): You might want to deal with a financial matter with someone close - if someone gets too anxious or too emotional, you might need to put a piece the discussion until things calm and can become more productive.

Aquarius (Jan. 23-Feb. 23): Two slow hours it might seem like nothing is going right, but that's temporary - with your sad, come back to it later for better results.

Aries (Feb. 24-March 20): If you can grab a few hours, take the chance to place in more today. Today might have become a little easier both but for the next few days, getting things done might seem more worrisome than to typical.

SENIOR HOUSING GUIDE

ACTIVE ADULT

Active living options offer amenities to enjoy staying home

The Chicagoland area offers a wide array of active living options to fit any preference. Those attracted to a maintenance-free, amenity-rich lifestyle are from all walks of life and backgrounds, some still working and some not.

What they have in common, besides being 55-plus, is an opportunity to enjoy the resort-like amenities and activities their community offers, as well as the freedom to travel worry-free. The “lock-and-leave” option means no home security worries or maintenance concerns when traveling either for a weekend getaway or for a winter in Arizona or Florida.

Active adult housing choices run the gamut from villa-style homes to easy to maneuver ranch plans to luxury condos

in an urban or suburban setting. The communities, some similar to a resort or an upscale hotel, offer amenities that make it just as appealing to stay home and enjoy. These may include a golf course, swimming pool, fitness center, movie theater, a bar and clubhouse and more.

When older adults embrace a simpler, stress-free environment, they celebrate letting go of all the responsibilities of single-family home ownership and can focus instead on broadening their social network, as well as seeking out new hobbies or adventures.

With the children grown and the responsibilities lessened, choosing to be part of an active living community can be an exciting new chapter in life.

INDEPENDENT LIVING | ASSISTED LIVING | MEMORY CARE

At Peace Village, retirement living is designed to feel easy, engaging and full of possibility. With independent living, assisted living and memory care all on one campus, you can enjoy today with confidence for the future.

LIFE PLAN

Housing needs for the different stages of life

Life plan communities, also known as continuing care retirement communities, offer peace of mind for today and tomorrow. Their design plan reflects the different stages of life, so residents can look to a worry-free future.

The levels or stages include: independent, assisted living, nursing and memory care. A resident can spend the rest of their life in a life plan community, moving between levels of care as needed. Many also offer short-term rehabilitation, after surgery or a medical event.

The philosophy, and the case for "life plan" living, makes sense to many seniors and their children. Parents often express they don't want to be a burden to their children. While their children might not see it that way, seniors say they prefer to keep their autonomy, which includes a plan for how and where they age.

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, continuing care settings have proven to be beneficial to the health of their residents, as they take them through all stages of the aging process. Research shows that people who live in continuum care are healthier and live longer than those who don't.

RENTALS FOR SENIORS

Seniors wanting to rent have many options

Opening the door to an apartment rental is an attractive option for many seniors for myriad reasons. Seniors can choose from a different number of price points — from luxury new apartment buildings and upscale senior community rentals to low- and middle-income options, some built by nationwide housing developers focused on this age and income demographic.

They can choose to live in downtown locations — whether in Chicago or suburban towns — close to conveniences, or choose apartment complexes away from the city lights offering more green space, nature preserves and less density.

Often in rentals, utilities are included, or at least include heat and water. In upscale senior apartment communities, all utilities are typically included, as well as amenities such as dining rooms, fitness centers, a swimming pool and more.

For low-income developments that rely on assistance from public funding sources — municipal, state and federal — there are age guidelines and income requirements. Demand for low-income apartments typically outstrips supply, so getting on a waiting list is advisable.

ASSISTED LIVING

Maintain quality of life with day-to-day assistance

Is a move to assisted living the right move for you or a loved one? Things to consider when contemplating a move is whether or not medications can be managed on one's own; if isolation is creating loneliness and anxiety; if everyday activities are harder to do — including getting proper nutrition or avoiding falls.

While giving up one's home can be difficult, it may be time to do just that if living alone is worrisome. Typically, once the transition is made, many seniors are pleased with their new surroundings.

Personalized care focuses on activities of daily living, such as dressing, bathing and medication

reminders. Nutritious meals, housekeeping, laundry and transportation services, as well as social programs and activities are typically included. In addition, many assisted living communities offer medical services, such as a nurse on duty and a visiting doctor.

A recent survey of senior living options found that when a senior moved into assisted living, 73% of families reported improvement in their loved one's quality of life. Assisted living residents themselves say their nutrition, social well-being and physical health all improved after moving.

When skilled medical attention is required outside the home, the need can be either for short- or long-term care. Short-term focuses on recovery and rehabilitation after a recent surgery or an illness. If the need is ongoing, long-term provides skilled nursing care for those with chronic illness or dementia.

Typically, continuing care or life plan communities provide both types of service. There are, however, places that specialize in short- or long-term care services only.

In a short-term setting, a patient is assessed and a care plan is tailored to the individual's health needs. Physical and occupational therapists, nutritionists and other medical staff have the same goal — getting clients back on their feet and back to life as soon as possible.

Long-term care provides skilled care for those who are chronically ill. These services are generally for those with chronic or progressive conditions such as Parkinson's disease, debilitating stroke or Alzheimer's disease. When a senior's on-going needs exceed what can be provided at home, that's when a long-term care facility should be considered.

MEMORY CARE

Special care facilities offer quality care when memory loss is an issue

Memory care is specialized care for those diagnosed with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia. Several options exist for families who decide their loved one would benefit in a safe, secure environment. These include designated memory care buildings or units, in addition to skilled care nursing homes and secure assisted living facilities. In recent years a trend has emerged for memory care only buildings or those that offer both assisted living and memory care.

Living arrangements vary from semi-private apartments to private

rooms. Typically, services are matched to residents' needs and capabilities and can include basic activities of daily living (ADLs), as well as medication management and social and recreational events. Offering resident-tailored programming helps meet the different needs of early, middle and late stages of Alzheimer's and other dementias.

Most memory care facilities are private pay, but some in Illinois accept Medicaid under the state's Supportive Living Program. For more information, visit hfs.illinois.gov.
