— Illinois Lottery Launches Instant Ticket To Help Find Multiple Sclerosis Cure – Mike Krauser
http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2017/03/16/illinois-lottery-launches-instant-ticket-to-help-find-multiple-sclerosis-cure/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois Lottery has announced the latest version of a scratch-off game to benefit researchers seeking a cure for Multiple Sclerosis. “Go out and buy a ticket and let’s cure MS,” said the state’s Public Health Director, Dr. Nirav Shah at the kickoff event for the “MS Project” instant game at UIC. WBBM’s Mike Krauser reports. “In recent years, there are promising new hopes on the horizon,Dr. Shah said. “The tide is very clearly turning with respect to MS therapies and that makes the research that this ticket supports all the more important right now.” Lieutenant Governor Evelyn Sanguinetti, who has lived with MS for 10 years, said she was diagnosed after a fall on ice and calls herself an MS warrior. “My husband told me that I better get busy living or get busy dying,” Sanguinetti said. “I chose to live and I chose to fight.” She urged people to support the cause and said she firmly believes there will be a cure in her lifetime. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a disabling neurological disease that disrupts the flow of information between the brain and the body. More than 20,000 people are living with MS in Illinois, according to the Illinois Lottery MS Project website. People with MS fight symptoms like fatigue, walking difficulties, blurred vision, dizziness and vertigo, numbness, weakness and many more. Women are two to three times more likely to be diagnosed with MS than men are. Illinois Lottery Director Greg Smith said 100 percent of the proceeds from the instant scratch ticket funds research. The Illinois Lottery has raised more than $8 million for MS research so far with the instant ticket. Doctor Douglas Feinstein has been working on MS research at the University of Illinois at Chicago for 20 years. “It’s getting more and more difficult to obtain research funding and this is another opportunity,” Dr. Feinstein said. (chart) He too said there are promising therapies that are being worked on at UIC and elsewhere. The ticket can be purchased for $3 where Illinois Lottery instant scratch-off tickets are sold. Ticket buyers could win up to $50,000. The Illinois Lottery also helps other causes with instant tickets, such as breast cancer with the ‘Ticket for the Cure,’ Special Olympics with the ‘Special Olympics Ticket,’ and HIV/AIDS prevention with the ‘Red Ribbon Cash’ ticket.)

CHICAGO MAGAZINE
— Bruce Rauner’s Approval Numbers Are In Freefall  His latest numbers are brutal, even compared to last year. Any silver lining for him? Madigan’s even more unpopular. – WHET MOSER  (DIERSEN: What are your approval numbers in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois?  From what I see, those who have the most religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois can have a tremendous impact on your approval numbers.  Most people, if not virtually all people, base their opinions of people on what those who have the most clout say about them and treat them, especially what the say about them and how they treat them in public. For example, if the mayor of a municipality treats someone rudely during his state of the city address, many people, if not virtually all people in that municipality will then treat that person rudely. For example, if a township trustee treats someone rudely during his speech at a political meeting, many members, if not virtually all the members of that political organization will then treat that member rudely. For example, if a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee treats someone rudely during that organization’s annual conventions, many members, if not virtually all the members of that organization will then treat that member rudely.  Who treats you rudely?  I should write a book about those in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who have treated me rudely since 2000. They would love it. They know that my policy has been to forgive those who trespass against me.  They have taken advantage of that policy and they are gambling that I will not abandon that policy.)

They belittle and badmouth the experience that I gained working as an analyst for GAO 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $94,610-$122,991.  Much of GAO analysts do is very similar to what journalists do.)
http://www.editorandpublisher.com/columns/business-of-news-fake-news-is-a-golden-opportunity-for-journalists/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Fake news is the best thing that has ever happened to real journalism. I mean the kind of journalism that requires serious work. If you’ve ever spoken to a high school class or a civic group, then you know that the average citizen knows as much about gathering and reporting news as they know about brain surgery. The public does not understand how reporters and editors sift through potential stories, make decisions about what to cover (with disinterest for the partisan viewpoints), and then begin the process of accumulating information, discarding some of it, challenging “proof” that sources offer, and finally choosing the words that will tell the story. The public knows nothing of the editing process—how a good editor can approach a news article submitted by a reporter with skepticism. How—finally—a copy editor reads the article one more time and summarizes the 800 words into six-to-10 words that fit in the headline space.)

— REPUBLICAN LAWMAKERS SAY THEY’RE SKIPPING TOWN HALLS FOR ‘SAFETY REASONS’ – Stacey Baca
http://abc7chicago.com/politics/gop-lawmakers-say-theyre-skipping-town-halls-for-safety-reasons/1783734/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Some Republican congressmen are facing angry voters in their districts, concerned with the repeal of the Affordable Care Act and other issues with the new president’s agenda. They say security concerns are why they’re canceling town halls. Congressman Randy Hultgren announced Friday afternoon that one of his staff members quit this week because she was worried about her safety at the office. The police chief in Campton Hills confirmed they have handled a few minor calls. There has been no violence at any of the town hall meetings held across the country, but the congressman says safety is the reason he won’t hold town hall meetings. Republicans have faced protests at home, including Hultgren. He has decided for now to meet with constituents only in small groups, not town halls. “They get frustrated having individual time with me, or a small group meeting with me. They want to have something that is more theatrical. I just don’t know if that is beneficial right now,” he said. Hultgren represents part of McHenry, Kane and Kendall counties. “We just want to make sure that everybody is safe, that we have this respect in the process that we can listen from each other, learn from each other, disagree at times but with a level of respect,” he said. Although Hultgren used former congresswoman Gabby Giffords’ shooting as an example, Giffords recently released her own response, saying politicians must face their constituents and hold town hall meetings. Congressman Peter Roskam, who represents the far northwest and western suburbs, has also had protests in his districts. Instead of town halls, he’s using phone meetings. “Rather than having a meeting with 200 people that are essentially shouting at one another, I thought it was more helpful to meet with 18,000 people on the phone to have a wider range of opinion and much more feedback,” he said. The protests, for some, harken back to the early days of the Tea Party. Senator Dick Durbin, who met with Tea Partiers at the time, sold an old boxing quote to put it in perspective. “They used to say something about Joe Lewis, the great heavyweight champion, they used to say something about his opponents: they can run but they can’t hide. The same is true about members of Congress. You can avoid your constituents for some period of time, but ultimately they get the last word in the election,” Durbin said. Voters have criticized Republican lawmakers for shirking their duty to their constituents and continue to push for town hall meetings. Experts said things will only get worse for lawmakers because soon they will start voting on laws, and voters will follow how their representatives are voting.)

— Age bias in the Age of the Millennial – Editorial  (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes PROMOTE AGE DISCRIMINATION BIG TIME.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-age-bias-edit-plummer-terkel-scully-0304-jm-20170303-story.html
(FROM THE EDITORIAL: Yes, this is often said to be the Age of the Millennial. And virtually every discussion of generations quickly references baby boomers. But assigning stereotypes to different age groups isn’t just annoying. It’s often misleading. Case in point: America’s concept of retirement has changed. Many people are working well into their 70s and 80s. Insert here your own story about the 83-year-old co-worker who never got sick and was always the first to arrive each day. And workers with that depth of life and work experience bring to the table a wealth of institutional and subject knowledge about their fields. That’s a wellspring that millennials can tap into, and employers should covet. Too often, they don’t. Ageism — that is, discrimination based on someone’s age — is rampant in today’s workplace. According to a study by AARP in 2013, 3 of every 5 older workers reported having seen or experienced age discrimination at work. Age discrimination complaints brought to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission have jumped 26 percent over the last decade, from 16,548 in 2006 to 20,857 last year. Madigan is right to take up this issue, and we hope the job search firms that have been warned make the right fixes. A spokeswoman for CareerBuilder told the Tribune’s Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz that the company “is committed to helping workers of all ages find job opportunities, and is fixing this unfortunate oversight.” That’s good to hear. After all, what difference does it make if someone’s 23, 43, 63 or 83 — as long as he or she can get the job done well. Mark Twain put it best: “Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.”)

http://dailycaller.com/2017/02/28/heres-what-wrong-with-the-claim-that-female-reporters-make-26-less-than-male-counterparts/
(FROM THEARTICLE: The study’s claim ignores much of its own data.  Its data clearly suggests the salary gap is because female journalists are, on average, six years younger than their male colleagues, and have 5.3 less years of work experience. They are also less likely to work full time and hold management positions. . .The study did find the average after-tax income of a male journalist in the country is $55,552, while the average female journalist earns $44,104. This statistic on its own can be misleading without the context of the work experience gap.)

SEATTLE TIMES
— To federal-government workers: Persist!  My message to my former colleagues in the federal government is: Don’t go. Instead, speak truth to power. You are needed now more than ever. – Frederick J. Kaplan  (DIERSEN: I stayed and persisted against political affiliation discrimination, against reverse discrimination, against age discrimination, and against retaliation for almost 30 years.  For doing that, I paid the following price:  My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, did not promote me beyond GS-13, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.  My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, they disallowed my education deductions, and they disallowed my partial day per diem claims.  My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests.)
http://www.seattletimes.com/opinion/to-federal-government-workers-persist/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: These are the worst of times for federal-government employees. Several of the political appointees in the Trump administration are hostile to the missions of the departments and agencies they now lead. On top of that, the president’s hiring freeze will create imbalances in the federal workforce, requiring current employees to fill in random gaps. Many civil servants will simply quit in disgust. I hope they don’t. When Ronald Reagan became president in 1981, I was an attorney in the Seattle office of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. In his first year in office, President Ronald Reagan proceeded to remake our small agency, bringing in new leadership that openly disdained the civil-rights community and its agenda. Some of us joked bitterly that we were becoming the U.S. Commission against Civil Rights. Funding for the commission was drastically reduced. Discouraged, much of the staff, myself included, found employment elsewhere. Abandoning ship in such circumstances is understandable, but in retrospect I think a mistake. When those civil servants with the strongest commitment to their agency’s mission leave, who remains? Answer: Those less committed and less likely to confront their political masters. Sure, the most earnest among those who quit the government will carry on their cause from the outside. But ultimately civil rights, environmental protection, enforcement of labor standards cannot be fully realized without governmental action, that is the action of dedicated and experienced civil servants.)

http://peoriapublicradio.org/post/college-admissions-bill-advances-illinois-house#stream/0
(FROM THE ARTICLE: An Illinois House committee has cleared a proposal that would require public universities to admit first-time freshman applicants who finish with a GPA in the top 10% of their high school’s graduating class.  The House Higher Education Committee passed the bill despite opposition from the University of Illinois and the Illinois Board of Higher Education. Democratic Rep. Andre Thapedi of Chicago sponsored the bill, saying the University of Illinois lacks diversity. The Urbana campus has 5.4% black enrollment, with higher percentages at the Chicago and Springfield campuses.

http://dailycaller.com/2017/02/11/scott-greer-talks-no-campus-for-white-men-on-tucker-carlson-tonight-video/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Scott Greer, author and Daily Caller columnist, joined Tucker Carlson on Fox News Friday night to discuss his new book on college radicalism called “No Campus for White Men.”  Carlson was acutely aware of the changing face of higher education in America. “In the last five years or so campuses seem to have been hit by a fever they haven’t experienced since the 1950s,” he said. “Millions of students and professors have made far-left politics their only reason for being at school. The result is this: everybody gets a safe space expect for white men. They are hated and despised,” he continued, introducing Greer. Greer lamented the state of campus politics today, pointing to a near complete takeover by the radical left. “Identity politics and victimhood culture have taken over higher education,” he explained. “More important in some ways is victimhood culture, where everyone competes to be the biggest victim.”  The problem, as Greer sees it, is the complete dominance of the leftist moral outlook on university campuses. “The reason that they do that is we assign moral status in the college moral culture that’s being created to who’s the bigger victim,” he explained, “If you’re privileged, that’s the worst thing you can be.” Greer then explained what he feels is the total irrationality of the modern “privilege” ideology. “You can be the son of a poor coal miner from West Virginia and you’re privileged. And you can be the son of a wealthy multi-millionaire but African-American and you’re oppressed.” The indoctrination about which Greer is concerned does not stop at the classroom door either. “When you have an English course, the fact that Shakespeare and John Milton are the primary writers that are studied in that course, that’s a problem because they’re white males.” Tucker closed the interview by expressing his disbelief at the whole situation. “It’s just so bizarre, standing on this bucolic leafy campus in New England fall, sixty grand a year, none of them have jobs, and they’re angry.”)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/ct-congressman-roskam-rejects-public-meeting-call-0211-20170210-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam has turned down a third request by the League of Women Voters to appear at a public forum in his suburban district, saying Friday that “large meetings tend to devolve into shouting matches.”  The Wheaton Republican was confronted last weekend by a few hundred protesters when he spoke at a Palatine Township Republican Organization meeting. He is one of several GOP congressman whose appearances have been met with angry protests fueled by Democrats and encouraged by social media. Roskam, in an interview Friday, said he prefers to limit constituent meetings to 25 people. “My experience is that, and we see this around the country, where these large meetings tend to devolve in shouting matches,” he said. “And they’re not helpful in public discourse and it seems like people leave more upset and more angry than when they came.” Asked why he spoke to the Palatine Township GOP event that was attended by about 100 people, Roskam said, “That’s not a forum where it’s conducive to shouting. I mean, these are not people that are coming to shout at a meeting.” A six-term House lawmaker, Roskam met Thursday for about an hour with 12 representatives of the nonpartisan League of Women Voters’ eight chapters in his district. He declined their bid to host him at a large public meeting, an effort league officials said was prompted by a “groundswell of public interest” in having him address voters. Gail Chaney Kalinich, a lawyer and official of the League of Women Voters of Glen Ellyn, said Roskam had agreed to the Thursday meeting as long as no recording devices were used and no members of the news media were on hand. Last October, she said, seven league chapters wanted to host Roskam at a candidate forum with his Democratic rival, but he said no. This month, eight leagues offered to host him on Feb. 23 — or another day that week — during the upcoming congressional recess. Again, the group was told no. On Thursday the leagues were open to any future date for a meeting but were refused, Kalinich said. “He stated that in his view, small meetings are more productive, that a conversation occurs that is not possible with a larger group and that he does not see a way for a large meeting at this point in time to result in anything more than a screaming match,” Kalinich said. Roskam on Friday defended his record in meeting with constituents. “I don’t think I am inaccessible,” he said. . .Kalinich acknowledged that Roskam meets with small groups of people and hosts “telephone town halls” when to her understanding about 20 people are allowed to speak or ask a question. “This isn’t a situation where he’s never communicating,” she said. “He’s communicates in ways that he finds useful and appropriate.”)

GOVERNOR RAUNER
— Governor Announces New Efforts to Expand Diversity Programs at Tollway  (DIERSEN: Democrats use Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion to get rid of Republicans, and especially Republicans who are Protestant, conservative, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
http://www.satprnews.com/2017/02/10/governor-announces-new-efforts-to-expand-diversity-programs-at-tollway/
(FROM THE PRESS RELEASE: Governor Bruce Rauner joined Tollway Chairman Bob Schillerstrom, Board Directors Corey Brooks and Joe Gomez, and Executive Director Greg Bedalov today to highlight the Tollway’s efforts in strengthening diversity programs to build new opportunities and assistance for minorities, women and veterans. These efforts are breaking down barriers for businesses owned by minorities, women and veterans to compete for state contracts and for workers to qualify for good-paying construction and engineering jobs. „Our commitment to having a diverse workforce is leading to stable, good-paying contracts and job opportunities for minorities, women and veterans,” said Governor Bruce Rauner. „This is just the beginning. When these businesses succeed, we all succeed. I thank the Tollway for its commitment and dedication to ensuring all Illinoisans have access these economic opportunities.” The Tollway’s commitment to strengthening its diversity efforts puts the State of Illinois at the leading edge of diversity initiatives nationwide and serves as a blueprint for continuing to expand these programs in the future. In 2017, the Tollway is boosting its annual investment by more than 60 percent to fund programs that will increase participation by diverse businesses and workers in the Tollway’s 15 year $12 billion Move Illinois capital program.)
