(FROM THE ARTICLE: Job hopping is now expected among professionals. In fact, LinkedIn’s March survey of more than 26,000 members found that job seekers don’t expect to stay with their employer for more than three years. But while company loyalty seemingly declines, there are still plenty of professionals out there who stay with their organizations. Employees, who are motivated by purpose, rather than money or status, are much more likely to stick around. According to the LinkedIn survey, 73 percent of those who find personal fulfillment in their work and want it to have an impact on the world, are satisfied with their jobs. They also tend to accept a job because of company culture, mission and values. Here’s how to attract these mission-driven job seekers.)

— Hillary Clinton’s top campaign aide, Huma Abedin, worked at a radical Muslim journal for a dozen years – Paul Sperry
http://nypost.com/2016/08/21/huma-abedin-worked-at-a-radical-muslim-journal-for-10-years/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Hillary Clinton’s top campaign aide, and the woman who might be the future White House chief of staff to the first female US president, for a decade edited a radical Muslim publication that opposed women’s rights and blamed the US for 9/11. One of Clinton’s biggest accomplishments listed on her campaign website is her support for the UN women’s conference in Bejing in 1995, when she famously declared, “Women’s rights are human rights.” Her speech has emerged as a focal point of her campaign, featured prominently in last month’s Morgan Freeman-narrated convention video introducing her as the Democratic nominee. However, soon after that “historic and transformational” 1995 event, as Clinton recently described it, her top aide Huma Abedin published articles in a Saudi journal taking Clinton’s feminist platform apart, piece by piece. At the time, Abedin was assistant editor of the Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs working under her mother, who remains editor-in-chief. She was also working in the White House as an intern for then-first lady Clinton.)

http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/sweet-trump-touts-biz-record-but-tower-retail-space-still-empty/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A central premise of GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump’s pitch to voters is that his business success qualifies him for the Oval Office — but his years-long effort to rent retail space at the base of Trump’s namesake tower in Chicago has been a total failure. The billionaire businessman and reality show star, the son of a builder, highlights his real estate development expertise as a central selling point. Indeed, a selection of Trump’s construction projects — mostly in New York — were elements in two biographical videos about Trump at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland.)

ILLINOIS POLICY INSTITUTE
— ILLINOIS TAXPAYERS PAY $15,000 PER AFSCME WORKER IN ANNUAL HEALTH CARE COSTS – Mailee Smith (DIERSEN: Because I am a federal retiree, American taxpayers pay $16,854/year and my wife and I pay only $5,618/year for $22,472/year worth of health, dental, and vision insurance.  Of course, needless-to-say, my critics/opponents stress the aforesaid to their operatives and to their dupes, all of whom have severe financial, health, and/or other problems. Of course, needless-to-say, if I sought a government office or a political office, my critics/opponents would use the aforesaid against me. Many millions have not and will not seek a job with the federal government a) because the pay and benefits are terrible, b) because the advancement opportunities are terrible, c) because they lack required education, work experience, professional certifications, and/or professional licenses, d) because they cannot pass an employment examination, e) because they cannot pass a background investigation, f) because they cannot pass a physical examination, g) because they cannot take the demonization, denigration, and condemnation that comes with being a federal employee or federal retiree, and/or h) because they are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran and they know that the federal government discriminates against its employees who are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)
https://www.illinoispolicy.org/illinois-taxpayers-pay-15000-per-afscme-worker-in-annual-health-care-costs/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois’ contract with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees – the state’s largest government-worker union – expired on June 30, 2015. Since then, AFSCME officials have been clamoring for a “fair contract,” with demands including Cadillac health insurance at little cost – hardly a fair proposal for state taxpayers, who can’t afford to keep paying for such exorbitant state-worker benefits. Under the expired contract, taxpayers cover nearly $15,000 per AFSCME worker in annual health care costs, though workers themselves pay just $4,452 toward their own coverage. Meanwhile, private-sector workers have seen rate increases of up to 49 percent in the Illinois health care exchange in 2016 alone.)

http://abc7chicago.com/politics/senate-race-between-kirk-duckworth-heats-up/1477047/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The race for the United States Senate seat in Illinois is heating up as Democratic challenger Tammy Duckworth unleashed new political attacks on incumbent Mark Kirk. Kirk was in Republican stronghold DuPage County Friday as he tries to unify the party behind what has become his maverick reelection campaign. After Sen. Kirk addressed the Naperville Chamber of Commerce, media members were asked to leave the room during the question and answer session. Later, Kirk explained the stroke he survived in 2012 makes question and answer sessions difficult. “That’s just a Kirk thing. I’ll take the hit for that. Ok,” Kirk said. The senator, whose bus tour took him to Republican Day in Springfield this week, reaffirmed his decision to vote for someone than his own party’s presidential nominee Donald Trump or Democrat Hillary Clinton. He is also one of only three Republican senators to support a confirmation hearing for President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland. Kirk said his self-described independent, fiscally conservative, socially moderate politics are needed now more than ever. “With such bad choices between Clinton and Trump, who we decide should be our senator is all the more important now,” Kirk said.)

SUBURBAN LIFE
— Efforts to restore McKee House continue  Limestone building near Glen Ellyn was built in 1936 – ERIC SCHELKOPF
http://www.mysuburbanlife.com/2016/08/18/efforts-to-restore-mckee-house-continue/a7hm441/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Bobbi Wheatley believes that the 80-year-old McKee House needs to be preserved.  “I think it is a very historically relevant building,” the Glen Ellyn resident said. “It’s part of the historical corridor along St. Charles Road.” Wheatley attended a meeting on Aug. 18 organized by the McKee Preservation Group, which is commitment to restoring and giving an adaptive reuse to the limestone building. The house was constructed in 1936 for the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County. The building is located on the Glen Ellyn-Lombard border in Churchill Woods and has been vacant since 2002. Forest Preserve District staff members have recommended the building be razed because of the high cost to repair it. The McKee Preservation Group is circulating a petition against the demolition of the building. The petition states the house should be preserved for its “historic, architectural, cultural and aesthetic importance.” “The [Forest Preserve] commissioners need to be better stewards of the property they own, or they will get booted out,” Wheatley said. Wheatley signed the group’s petition as well as others attending the meeting, including Glen Ellyn resident Karen Parkinson, who also thinks the McKee House should be preserved and reused. “I feel there are a lot of uses for it,” Parkinson said. “I think the ambiance of the location would enhance the event.” Forest Preserve District of DuPage County commissioner Tim Whelan wants to build support – and funds – for preserving the McKee House. Whelan said he would like to garner $10 donations from 5,000 people – totaling $50,000 – which would be used toward the building’s preservation. “I feel like my board will speak to me if there is a groundswell of support, along with funds,” he has said. McKee Preservation Group member Andrew Van Gorp said he would like to see the McKee House used as a bicycle way station to serve the bike trails in the area. The meeting was held in the Glen Ellyn Park District’s Lake Ellyn Boathouse, which was built in 1937 as a Works Progress Administration project and was recently restored. In July, Glen Ellyn Park District Board of Commissioners President Jay Kinzler wrote a letter to Forest Preserve District of DuPage County President Joe Cantore stating that while the Park District is not in a position to contribute capital funding towards repairs and restoration of the McKee House, “we certainly value historic assets and believe the McKee House is worthy of saving if at all possible.” In the letter, Kinzler said the Park District would consider using the McKee House for programming opportunities if it was preserved. Glen Ellyn Park Board Commissioner Kathy Cornell said that one of the possible uses for the building could be as an outdoor learning lab. “It is a terrific setting,” Cornell said. Glen Ellyn Historic Preservation Commissioner John Schreiber also expressed a desire to save the building and reuse it. “The beauty of the building is special,”Schreiber said. “It was designed to blend with the natural environment around it…It is all handcrafted. Our goal is to make this building whole and open to the public for public use.” More information about the McKee Preservation Group is at its Facebook page at @SavetheMcKeeHouse.)

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/18/upshot/as-more-older-people-seek-work-they-are-put-into-old-person-jobs.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The rules of the job market aren’t the same for older workers. As men and women 55 and older looking for employment probably suspect, at a certain point the kinds of jobs available to them narrow significantly. New research by Matthew Rutledge, an economist at the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College, found that they are increasingly being funneled into what he describes as “old-person” jobs. And not surprisingly, older workers with the least education have the narrowest set of opportunities, though Mr. Rutledge found this effect was small. It turns out that “old-person” jobs are a mix of high-skilled service work (like managers, sales supervisors and accountants) and low-skilled service work (like truck drivers, janitors and nursing aides). Absent from the top of the list are jobs calling for a fair amount of physical labor. Jobs in farming, manufacturing and repair represent less than a quarter of all new hires in this age bracket.)

— Wheaton developing guidelines for honorary street names – Bob Goldsborough
http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/wheaton/news/ct-wheaton-honorary-street-names-20160817-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mayor Mike Gresk proposed adding another requirement to the guidelines: that the honorees be deceased. He referred to disgraced former U.S. House Speaker and Wheaton College alumnus J. Dennis Hastert, who admitted earlier this year that he had molested boys decades earlier while a high school wrestling coach and who currently is in prison for related crimes involving structuring bank withdrawals and making false statements to federal investigators. In 2007, Wheaton College named its center for economics, government and public policy after Hastert, only to strip his name from the center last year after he was indicted. “I’ve always worried in the back of my brain that somebody goes off the reservation on you,” Gresk said. “There are myriad examples of that. In this very town, on a certain college campus, where the (Hastert) name came down in about 40 seconds (after he was indicted). I’m always dubious when I see … centers and baseball fields named after living people.” Councilwoman Suzanne Fitch echoed Gresk’s concerns, saying that “I think it becomes less political if it just applies to deceased individuals.”)

Organizers of the collective, which has more than 300 members in New York and chapters in nine other cities across the country, said they were prepared to break the law and get arrested in their fight against gun manufacturers, their shareholders, the National Rifle Association (NRA) and its corporate backers.)

Of course, needless-to-say, while I attended Crete-Monee High School (CMHS) 1962-1966, UIC 1966-1968, and NIU 1969-1970, my critics/opponents predicted that I would drop out. They cited my parents never attending college, my father being the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attending high school, my just barely making it into the upper 20% of my 1966 CMHS class, my ACT being only 24, my spending my junior and senior years washing dishes in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights, and my working for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969.)
