Racinowski, Editor/Manager July 4th Fireworks Safety Starts with Common Sense Tips 11th Ward Holiday Hours Using consumer fireworks on our nation s birthday is as American as apple pie, backyard barbecues and parades on Main Street. And it is equally safe if a few common sense rules are followed, says Nancy Blogin, President of the National Council on Fireworks Safety. Nancy notes that thanks to testing of consumer fireworks in China, through the American Fireworks Standards Laboratory and other testing programs, and rigorous enforcement of federal fireworks regulations by the CPSC, consumer fireworks today are safer than ever before. But Nancy notes that fireworks related accidents do occur each year, however, most could be eliminated if some basic safety steps had been taken. The National Council on Fireworks Safety offers these common sense safety tips for using consumer fireworks in the hopes that injuries to consumers can be greatly reduced this season: Parents and caretakers should always closely supervise teens if they are using fireworks. Parents should not allow young children to handle or use fireworks. Fireworks should only be used outdoors. Always have water ready if you are shooting fireworks. Know your fireworks.read the caution label before igniting. Obey local laws. If fireworks are not legal where you live, do not use them. Alcohol and fireworks do not mix. Wear safety glasses whenever using fireworks. Never relight a dud firework. Wait 20 minutes and then soak it in a bucket of water. Soak spent fireworks with water before placing them in an outdoor garbage can. Avoid using homemade fireworks or illegal explosives: They can kill you! Report illegal explosives, like M-80s and quarter sticks, to the fire or police department And note these special safety tips, if using sparklers: Always remain standing while using sparklers. Never hold a child in your arms while using sparklers. Never hold, or light, more than one sparkler at a time. Never throw sparklers. Sparkler wire and stick remain hot long after the flame has gone out. Be sure to drop spent sparklers in a bucket of water. Teach children not to wave sparklers, or run, while holding sparklers. The National Council on Fireworks Safety urges Americans to follow these common sense safety rules this Fourth of July in their holiday celebrations. For a full list of consumer fireworks safety tips and a safety video, please visit www.fireworkssafety.org.

The celebration was held on Monday, June 27 with the unveiling at 4:30 p.m. The new sculptures include Monet by Gary Lee Price and Girl in a Wetsuit by Elek Imredy. Price s Monet captures the Father of Impressionism as he works in a garden on his next great masterpiece. Price was inspired by Monet s role as a great contributor to society and the world of art. Imredy s Girl in a Wetsuit depicts a woman in a wetsuit with flippers and a diving mask. This sculpture is a commissioned reproduction of the original, which sits on a boulder off the shore of Stanley Park, Vancouver, British Columbia. It was placed there June 9, 1973. This sculpture has been fondly called Canada s Little Mermaid. Tripp Lite s latest acquisitions join other pieces installed on the property: Confluence, Quasi Möbius Strip and You Are My Sunshine. The collection connects the company to Bridgeport s growing artists community. Long known as home to five Chicago mayors, today Bridgeport is reemerging as a home for the arts, with the Bridgeport Art Center and the Zhou B Art Center both located just steps from Tripp Lite s headquarters. We created the Sculpture Garden as a place of beauty and serenity within the urban landscape, said Keelin Wyman, Tripp Lite Executive Vice President. Our Chairman, Barre Seid, is a great patron of the arts and we re excited to be part of furthering Bridgeport s artistic renaissance. What beautiful additions these are to the Bridgeport Community.

Metropolitan Water Reclamation District Pres., Mariyana Spyropoulos, MWRD VP, Barbara McGowan, President of Environmental Advocate and Attorney Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and MWRD Commissioners, Frank Avila, Kari Steel and David Walsh officially opened the world's largest nutrient recovery facility, is now open for business, working to clean the country's waterways, save taxpayers money, provide for farmers and protect the entire planet that is facing a scarcity of phosphorus and harmful algae blooms. The Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (MWRD) in partnership with Ostara Nutrient Recovery Technologies and Black & Veatch officially opened the world's largest nutrient recovery facility recently at the Stickney Water Reclamation Plant (WRP) in Cicero. The MWRD is dedicated to becoming the utility of the future, said MWRD President Mariyana Spyropoulos. Ostara's technology is a solution to managing the overabundance of phosphorus while creating a revenue stream through the sale of the fertilizer. This is a win for the environment & a win for Cook County taxpayers. MWRD s new nutrient recovery facility is an example of how progressive technology can be implemented to transform a wastewater treatment facility into a resource recovery center, providing significant environmental benefits to the Chicago Area Waterway System and downstream to the Mississippi River and the Gulf of Mexico. Through Ostara s technology, phosphorus and nitrogen will be recovered to create a high value fertilizer, marketed as Crystal Green.The process is both economically and environmentally viable. The new facility has a production capacity of 10,000 tons of Crystal Green per year. As part of the commercial sale of Crystal Green, the MWRD will receive revenue for every ton of fertilizer it produces. By removing phosphorus from the water and returning it to farmers and other agricultural producers, this facility represents a significant shift in the wastewater industry from treatment to recovery for reuse. While excess phosphorous discharged to waterways can contribute to water quality problems, it is also a non-renewable resource which is essential for life. It is estimated that there are fewer than 50 years of phosphorus reserves remaining worldwide.most phosphorus is sourced from rock mines and must be transported considerable distances. Closer to home, however, this renewed water stewardship will pay an instant impact on area waterways, especially in Chicago, where river walks are being constructed and recreational use of the Chicago River and area waterways has increased dramatically in recent years. Cleaned water from Stickney WRP is released into the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal southwest of the Chicago River so taking proactive steps in protecting the local watershed continues to be a priority for the MWRD. Designed to treat up to 1.44 billion gallons of water each day and serving a population equivalent to 2.3 million residents including the central part of Chicago and 46 suburban communities, the Stickney WRP discharges into the Chicago and Sanitary and Ship Canal, making it the largest water reclamation plant in the world. MWRD's mission is to protect the water supply source, improve the quality of area waterways, and protect businesses and homes from flood damages while sustainably managing this vital resource for the Greater Chicago area.

Wallace St. (Enter on 33rd Street side) Sunday ONLY JULY 3rd Time: 9am-3pm Facts about Thunderstorms and Lightning -They may occur singly, in clusters or in lines. Some of the most severe occur when a single thunderstorm affects one location for an extended time. -Thunderstorms typically produce heavy rain for a brief period, anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. -Warm, humid conditions are highly favorable for thunderstorm development. -About 10 percent of thunderstorms are classified as severe - one that produces hail at least an inch or larger in diameter, has winds of 58 miles per hour or higher or produces a tornado. -Lightning s unpredictability increases the risk to individuals and property. -Lightning often strikes outside of heavy rain and may occur as far as 10 miles away from any rainfall. - Heat lightning is actually lightning from a thunderstorm too far away from thunder to be heard. However, the storm may be moving in your direction. - Most lightning deaths and injuries occur when people are caught outdoors in the summer months during the afternoon and evening. -Your chances of being struck by lightning are estimated to be 1 in 600,000 but could be reduced even further by following safety precautions. -Lightning strike victims carry no electrical charge and should be attended to immediately. Know the Terms Familiarize yourself with these terms to help identify a thunderstorm hazard: -Severe Thunderstorm Watch - Tells you when and where severe thunderstorms are likely to occur. Watch the sky and stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio, commercial radio or television for information. -Severe Thunderstorm Warning - Issued when severe weather has been reported by spotters or indicated by radar. Warnings indicate imminent danger to life and property to those in the path of the storm. **** Don t let your struggle become your identity.

While tending to my garden west of Halsted the morning after arriving home from my trip, I was greeted by my old friends the English House Sparrow, House Finch, Cardinal, Mourning Dove, Common Grackle, and Starlings that frequent my backyard fence, feeder, and telephone wires. Although Bridgeport is a beautiful neighborhood with many lovely parks, it lacks many of the features that attract birds to other Chicago neighborhoods- namely proximity to Lake Michigan. So how does a Bridgeport denizen attract birds? This edition of the Bridgeport Birder will discuss this very issue. Like many of us, the best way to a bird s heart is through her stomach and thus the best way to attract birds to your yard is to put up a bird feeder. There are three elements to consider when erecting a feeder; the type of feeder, the type of food, and the location of the feeder. The type of feeder, in my opinion, is not important as long as it is squirrel proof. I have a three tiered tube feeder and it is quite popular. The type of food used depends on the type of feeder. Dry bird food which can be used in a tube feeder, for example, comes in many forms. Sunflower seeds are a favorite of a great variety of birds, while nyjer, for example, specifically attracts finches. Suet is a type of patty made from beef fat that many birders favor. Suet also attracts a variety of birds and requires a mesh hanging feeder made specifically to hold suet. Many birds prefer fruit such as apples and halved oranges. The next thing to consider is the location of the feeder. Do not hang a feeder off of your garage as the rumble of the door opening and closing may scare birds. Hanging a feeder off of a tree branch is a safe bet. Another way to attract birds is to plant native species. Although many local birds such as the Starling and House Sparrow are not native to North America, most of the local species you would likely see in your yard are. These birds evolved to feel themselves at home among native species. Planting native species also allows for zero or reduced pesticide use in maintenance, which leaves a positive ecological footprint, birding aside. The next tip for attracting birds goes hand in hand with planting native species: don t be afraid to get a little wild. Leaving fallen branches and brush piles will foster natural decay that perpetuates the natural cycle that supports birds. Finally, keep predators in check. Keep your cat indoors if possible and do not feed raccoons. I hope you enjoyed this edition of the Bridgeport News Birder and that this column has inspired you to make your space more bird friendly!

The 58th Annual Chicago Air and Water Show The 58th Annual Chicago Air and Water Show, presented by Shell and the City of Chicago, will return August 20 and 21 along the lakefront from Fullerton to Oak Street, with North Avenue Beach serving as show center from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily. Strong in tradition and one of the largest free admission events of its kind, the show headliners include the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and the U.S. Army Parachute Team Golden Knights. New this year, the U. S. Air Force F-35 will take part in the show for the first time. The U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds have been astounding audiences since 1953 with their commanding presence and precision flying in their F-16 Fighting Falcons. As role models for men and women of all ages, the Thunderbirds are a select group of Air Force Pilots who perform intricate and precise maneuvers, often approaching the speed of sound. The brave men and women of the U.S. Army Parachute Team Golden Knights and the U.S. Navy Leap Frogs will delight and inspire spectators as they jump out of an aircraft 12,500 feet above the earth s surface making a landing on North Avenue Beach.

Lipinski Announces Grant for Saint Xavier University Nursing Congressman Dan Lipinski (IL-3) is announcing that Saint Xavier University has been awarded a grant through the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Congratulations to Saint Xavier University on receiving this grant for their highly regarded nursing program, one of only 17 designated Centers of Excellence by the National League of Nursing, Rep. Lipinski said. We need more young women and men working in healthcare and this funding will provide the opportunity for more students to get valuable advanced nursing degrees.

In the past, Congressman Lipinski had helped secure funds for the University s library and their science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education programs. Saint Xavier is serving a critical mission educating so many young people many of whom are first-generation college students and preparing them for their future careers, said Lipinski.

THE MAN WHO ADVERTISES HIS BUSINESS HAS ONE Page 6 - BRIDGEPORT NEWS THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE ARE FREE THE BRIDGEPORT NEWS Freedom is Never Free...Not Even Now Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence? Here is their story... Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army; another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the Revolutionary War. They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor. What kind of men were they? Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants. Nine were farmers and large plantation owners; men of means, well educated. But they signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty would be death if they were captured. Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships swept from the seas by the British Navy. He sold his home and properties to pay his debts, and died in rags. Thomas McKeam was so hounded by the British that he was forced to move his family almost constantly. He served in the Congress without pay, and his family was kept in hiding. His possessions were taken from him, and poverty was his reward. Vandals or soldiers looted the properties of Dillery, Hall, Clymer, Walton, Gwinnett, Heyward, Ruttledge, and Middleton. At the battle of Yorktown, Thomas Nelson, Jr., noted that the British General Cornwallis had taken over the Nelson home for his headquarters. He quietly urged General George Washington to open fire. The home was destroyed, and Nelson died bankrupt. Francis Lewis had his home and properties destroyed.the enemy jailed his wife and she died within a few months. John Hart was driven from his wife's bedside as she was dying. Their 13 children fled for their lives. His fields and his gristmill were laid to waste. For more than a year he lived in forests and caves, returning home to find his wife dead and his children vanished. So, take a few minutes while enjoying your 4th of July holiday and silently thank these patriots. It's not much to ask for the price they paid. Remember: freedom is never free! TO PLACE YOUR AD Call: 773.927.0025 Virginia Mercado Awarded The Sister Claudia Hinds Scholarship On Thursday, June 16, Aquinas Literacy Center (ALC) held its annual Student Awards Celebration. Nine adult learners were celebrated for their graduation from Aquinas English as a Second Language (ESL) program. Virginia Mercado, one of the graduates, was awarded the Sister Claudia Hinds Scholarship. Each year ALC awards the scholarship to a graduate who goes above and beyond the average student. The scholarship was created in memory of Sister Claudia Hinds, the Adrian Dominican Sister who founded ALC. Scholarship funds are used to further the student s education in English. According to Alison Altmeyer, the Executive Director of ALC, As a staff, we selected Virginia as the recipient of the Sister Claudia Hinds Scholarship because of her persistence in learning English. In her three years at Aquinas, Virginia committed herself to attending one-on-one tutoring sessions, participating in supplemental classes and studying English in our Computer Learning Center. She has truly embraced our mission. While dedicating herself to learning English, Virginia volunteered as ALC s Spanish Literacy Instructor, helping Aquinas lowest level learners transition to English instruction. In early 2016, Virginia also offered a workshop to her peers about taking advantage of the resources at ALC. Upon receiving the scholarship, Virginia said, I studied at the Center for three years and now I feel very confident speaking English. I m able to take the bus to my job and I can answer the phone in English and write down the orders [at my job]. Virginia also encouraged her fellow adult learners. Do not be afraid to learn, just keep ahead. When you fall, get up. Remember that you can do it. Virginia will use the scholarship to take ESL classes at Arturo Velasquez Institute. For 20 years, Aquinas Literacy Center has served the immigrant community by offering free, individualized instruction in the English language. For more information, call 773-927-0512 or via email at emailinfo@aquina sliteracycenter.org.
