To call the administration’s “worst of the worst” claims a ruse is to give this administration too much credit. It’s not clever enough to run a con. Going after criminals was never the point during Trump’s first term. And mass deportation was the platform Trump ran on to get back to the Oval Office for […]
GLEN CARBON - Justin Terhaar, a senior from Father McGivney Catholic High School, concluded a historic baseball season and is set to continue his athletic career at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. Terhaar, who played third base and earned first-team all-state honors, finished the season with a remarkable .521 batting average and broke the school's all-time record with 62 hits. Terhaar is a Byron, Carlson, Petri & Kalb Male Athlete of the Month for Father McGivney Catholic. Coach Chris Erwin praised Terhaar’s performance and character, and said, “He had a season that will go down in the history books from a McGivney standpoint. Justin drove in 52 runs, many in key moments to extend leads, including in the state championship game. He consistently came up with big hits and made great plays at third base. He is a great young man, super respectful, one of the first guys for practice and one of the last to leave.” Terhaar also earned first-team all-state status
It won’t be long before it’s the Fourth of July and we hear the whistling and thunderous booms of fireworks streaking through the sky. And while “consumer” fireworks such as bottle rockets, skyrockets and roman candles are illegal in Illinois, according to the state’s Pyrotechnic Use Act , others are considered non-consumer fireworks including sparklers, smoke bombs and party poppers. But that doesn’t make them completely safe. In 2023, the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) received approximately 9,700 reports of injuries and eight deaths because of fireworks. And it’s not just injuries that happen on July 4. According to CPSC, 66% of injuries happened before and after the holiday. Stathis Poulakidas, MD, the burn center medical director at OSF HealthCare Saint Anthony Medical Center in Rockford, says the number of injuries reported is probably low, given the number of people who don’t immediately seek treatment.

When "men's health awareness month” is talked about, the mind almost always goes to medical screenings first. June is a time to encourage men to take care of their health and prioritize going in to be seen by a medical professional. "Men are notoriously difficult to get in for regular checkups, unless there's a problem. Men tend to ignore problems, a lot of time until it's too late or they develop a problem, when they could have avoided it," says Brian Curtis, MD, vice president, chief medical officer of OSF Medical Group. Dr. Curtis says men need to start regular primary care checkups for blood pressure, cholesterol and weight screenings in their early 20s. At 45, men need to start screening for colon cancer (colonoscopy), along with prostate cancer screening in their 50s. While these are all important things to do, Dr. Curtis says it’s also important for men to prioritize their mental well-being. In terms of mental health, there are two major issues guys run into.
