Ill. tax cap bill up for House vote Legislation would curb automatic hikes when property values decline By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com A bill aimed at limiting property-tax increases when overall property values decline could get a House vote as early as today. House Bill 89, filed by state Rep. Jack Franks, forbids governments under the tax

cap from collecting an automatic increase if their total assessed value declines, except by voter referendum. It got moved up for a final reading Thursday, after Franks implored legislative leaders to bring it forward for a vote – the House has set an April 19 deadline for third and final readings of House

bills for the spring session ending May 31. House Bill 89 cleared the House Revenue and Finance Committee last month on a 10-0 vote. “Many of our taxing bodies act like victims when we talk about getting rid of automatic increases when home values go down, but in reality, it’s

the homeowners who are the victims of the system,” said Franks, D-Marengo. The tax cap, or the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law, limits the annual increase that taxing bodies can receive to either the rate of inflation or 5 percent, whichever is less. State lawmakers imposed the cap on the col-

lar counties in 1991 to rein in double-digit property taxes as home values started to soar, and five years later allowed voters in other counties to enact tax caps by referendum. But when home values decrease – a scenario lawmakers never considered – the

What it means House Bill 89, sponsored by state Rep. Jack Franks, D-Marengo, seeks to forbid taxing bodies subject to the tax cap from collecting an inflationary increase in years when their total assessed value decreases.

By the numbers n Average of 42 minutes spent per year helping each family n Number of caseworkers has shrunk nearly 20 percent in the past seven years n The number of people seeking assistance has jumped by 47 percent n 1,870 case managers were handling 1.75 million cases n Officials are pushing for 600 additional caseworkers

SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois Department of Human Services staff is so lean that caseworkers spend an average of only 42 minutes a year per family, the agency’s chief said Thursday. Human Services Secretary Michelle Saddler told lawmakers the agency needs money to hire additional workers in order for the agency to keep their “noses above water.” The number of caseworkers has shrunk nearly 20 percent in the past seven years, according to agency numbers, while the number of people seeking assistance jumped by 47 percent. Saddler is pushing for 600 additional caseworkers, including 100 new employees proposed by Gov. Pat Quinn in his budget plan for the fiscal year that begins July 1. The new staff members are needed to adequately serve millions of Illinois residents who are eligible for food, medical and financial assistance, child care services and other programs. As of December, the agency’s 1,870 case managers were handling 1.75 million cases. That’s nearly 560,000, or 47 percent, more than in 2006, before the recession hit and the department had 2,315 caseworkers. “DHS needs a more realistic staffing,” Saddler said. “Some caseworkers are handling up to 2,600 cases.” The 42-minute calculation

For some, sound of music not solitary I need to hear the sound of music, and, no, not the capital letters sound of music. That would have been the 1965 Julie Andrews musical that played for 10 years in Des Moines theaters. And I know this, not because I made annual “The Sound of Music” pilgrimages to Des Moines, but because Des Moines Register columnist Donald Kaul waged a one-man battle to ban the movie from theaters. Make more screens available for more “American Graffiti,” “The Godfather Part II” and “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.” It’s hard to imagine a movie ever playing for 10 years in theaters, and I sometimes doubt my own memory, but I was a big fan of Donald Kaul and he waged a lonely battle. I was 14, and Donald Kaul was the master. I remember. Now, movies play for, what, a year in theaters? Six months? Six weeks? Straight to DVD? We rented “Argo,” winner of Best Picture in the Academy Awards, a few weeks after the Oscars. And “The Sound of Music” played for 10 years in theaters? Maybe it was just Des Moines, an entertainment desert. But I do need to hear the sound of music.

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Dick Peterson And the way to listen to it apparently is with earbuds, a lovely word, and I admire the person who came up with it. I expect to see earbuds pop up in the lawn, beautiful, delicate first-of-spring flowers. I expect earbuds to be best of friends to my ears. I expect earbuds to fit finely, delivering music only to me. I expect earbuds to tune the world out, with me and the sound of music playing in my head. I expect a lot. I have an MP3 player somewhere, and the only way you can listen to music is with earbuds, but it has been a constant source of irritation. It’s so small, and I can’t figure out how to make it play the songs I want to hear, and I can’t make it transfer songs from CDs, and I’m not about to pay 99 cents for new music for a product I can’t use. I do need to hear the sound of music. But it needs to fill the air, not my head. I might be in a minority. No matter where you go, you see lots of people with slender cords dropping from

their ears, plugged into an MP3 player, or an iPod, or a smartphone, or a tablet. It certainly isn’t a CD player. Or a cassette player. But, if anything, the earbuds are a sign: Do not disturb. I like to drive, and I like to drive long distances, and I would think that music streaming into my head through earbuds would be perfect, watching the miles pass with just me and my music. But that would be dangerous, and it would be disrespectful to the person sitting next me trying to hold a conversation or point out a roadside wonder. So I listen to the radio or the CD player so I might possibly hear the traffic around me, so I am mindful of my driving and not “Bohemian Rhapsody” blaring in my head. I need to be aware of my surroundings, and I can’t be aware of them if earbuds are plugged in. These days, I spend a considerable amount of time on trains and buses, or waiting alone for trains and buses, and those would seem like prime time for earbuds, and music, and tuning out the world. But I can’t, even if I knew how to listen to my MP3 player, wherever it is. I need to be aware of my surroundings, even if it is on the seat of the

bus zipping down Lake Shore Drive or Metra plodding its way along the Northwest Line. Plenty of people in the “quiet car” on Metra wear earbuds as they make their commutes, but that seems to defeat the purpose of surround-sound quiet. What’s nice about the quiet car is the quiet. It’s kind of like a library on rails. You might hear some hushed talking, but that’s about it. The quiet car is peaceful, and even the mellowest of ambient music through earbuds would be jarring. And what do you do when danger is lurking, not that I have ever experienced danger in 30 years of using public transportation? But with earbuds plugged into my head, someone might have the drop on me, and I suppose rob me, as improbable as that might be. I need to hear the sound of music, but it needs to fill the air – the hills are alive with the sound of music – not my head.

We’re just

CHICAGO – A Chicago woman is trying to get out of paying a parking fine totaling more than $100,000. WBBM Radio reported that Jennifer Fitzgerald filed a lawsuit in 2012 against the city over the $105,000 worth of tickets police piled up on her car. The car was left for nearly three years in an O’Hare International Airport parking lot. A judge dismissed the lawsuit Wednesday and pressed the parties to try to reach a settlement. Fitzgerald said she should not be held responsible because her ex-boyfriend abandoned the car in an employee parking lot at the airport. The suit also names her former boyfriend.

8BRIEFS Fewer Ill. residents get health plan at work CHICAGO – The percentage of Illinoisans who get health insurance through the workplace has declined, according to a report released Thursday that found similar drops nationwide with the country on the verge of overhauling the health care system. Rising costs mean fewer employers are offering health benefits and fewer workers are accepting coverage, even when it’s available, the report’s authors said. The analysis, funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, found that 11.5 million fewer Americans received health insurance through an employer or a family member’s job in 2011 than in 2000.

Kerry turns to Asia for help on N. Korea By BRADLEY KLAPPER The Associated Press LONDON – John Kerry had been secretary of state for little more than a week when North Korea tested a nuclear bomb. He gathered top aides together for a morning meeting and asked for ideas, prompting a conversation about how to get China to join the United States in putting pressure on Pyongyang, according to a senior administration official who was present. The debate encapsulates America’s struggle to come up with a strategy – sticks, carrots or a combination of both – to convince Chi-

na to police its own backyard. As Kerry heads to East Asia for his first time as America’s top diplomat, some progress has been made in convincing Beijing, North Korea’s biggest benefactor, to s t a r t g e t t i n g John Kerry tough with its Secretary neighbor. The of State question is whether it will make a difference. North Korea’s government agency said Thursday that it has “powerful striking means” on standby for a launch, amid

speculation in Seoul and Washington that North Korea will test-fire a mid-range missile designed to reach the U.S. territory of Guam in the Pacific Ocean. It was the latest warning from the North, which launched a long-range rocket in December and conducted an underground nuclear test in February. A U.S. intelligence report disclosed Thursday concluded that North Korea has advanced its nuclear knowhow to the point that it could arm a ballistic missile with a nuclear warhead. The report said the Pentagon’s intelligence wing has “moderate confidence”

that North Korea has nuclear weapons capable of delivery by ballistic missiles but that such weapons would be unreliable. Washington has been putting its hopes in Beijing to rein in the provocative behavior and combative rhetoric from North Korea. China has more leverage over the North than any other country, having massively boosted trade ties with the isolated regime in recent years and maintaining close military relations. But the U.S. has been frustrated by the reaction from a government that in many ways has different priorities.

China, analysts and officials often say, fears the implosion of North Korea’s impoverished state and the instability that would cause immediate damage, more than the North’s nuclear proliferation and missile program. And China remains wary of any enhanced U.S. involvement in its backyard. “If anyone has real leverage over the North Koreans, it is China,” U.S. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper told Congress on Thursday. “And the indications that we have are that China is itself rather frustrated with the behavior and the belligerent rhetoric of ... Kim Jong Un.”

Army chaplain gets With vote, Senate clears way for gun control debate posthumous medal By DARLENE SUPERVILLE By ALAN FRAM

The Associated Press

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Congress’ most serious gun-control effort in years cleared its first hurdle Thursday as the Senate pushed past conservatives’ attempted blockade under the teary gaze of families of victims of December’s Connecticut school shootings. The bipartisan 68-31 vote rebuffed an effort to keep debate from even starting, giving an early victory – and perhaps political momentum – to President Barack Obama and his gun control allies. Four months after 20 first-graders and six staffers at Sandy Hook Elementary School were killed, relatives watching the vote from a gallery overlooking the Senate floor dabbed at tears and clasped hands, some seeming to pray. Even so, few supporters of the legislation are confident of victory. Several weeks of emotional, unpredictable Senate debate lie ahead, and a mix

Foes of the proposed new restrictions say they would penalize law-abiding citizens and do nothing to curb gun violence. “The hard work starts

now,” said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who brought the legislation to the floor for debate. Hoping to bring pressure on Congress to act on gun control, supporters of new restrictions have been demonstrating in Washington. They have erected a mock graveyard with thousands of crosses on the National Mall, symbolizing victims of gun violence.

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama awarded the Medal of Honor Thursday to an Army chaplain from Kansas who risked his life dodging gunfire to provide medical and spiritual aid to wounded soldiers before dying in captivity more than 60 years ago during the Korean War. “I can’t imagine a better example for all of us, whether in uniform or not in uniform, a better example to follow,” Obama said after presenting the nation’s highest military award for valor to a nephew of Capt. Emil Kapaun during a ceremony in the White House East Room. The Roman Catholic priest was recognized for helping to carry an injured American for miles as Chinese captors led them on a death march, and for risking his life to drag the wounded to safety while dodging explosions and gunfire.

In November 1950, after Chinese soldiers overran U.S. troops near Unsan, Kapaun defied orders to evacuate, knowing it meant he would most certainly be captured. He pleaded with an injured Chinese officer to call out to his fellow Chinese to stop shooting, an act that spared the lives of wounded Americans. As Kapaun was being led away, he came across another wounded American in a ditch and an enemy soldier standing over Sgt. Herbert Miller, ready to shoot. Kapaun pushed the enemy aside and helped Miller as they were taken captive. They arrived days later, by foot, at the village in Pyoktong, where a POW camp eventually was established. “This is the valor we honor today – an American soldier who didn’t fire a gun, but who wielded the mightiest weapon of all, a love for his brothers so pure that he was willing to die so that they might live,” Obama said.

Payments must end in Bianchi case It would be great if we could say that the taxpayers’ meter stopped running on the debacle that was the prosecution of McHenry County State’s Attorney Louis Bianchi when McHenry County officials cut another check for $378,327 this week. Great, but it’s probably not the truth.

After two McHenry trials and two acquittals, it has County also got not been money well spent. $105,000 back from a settlement of part of Bianchi’s lawsuit, but some of that lawsuit initially was filed against special prosecutors Thomas McQueen and Henry Tonigan. To date, taxpayers have paid about $780,000 in the case initially launched to investigate whether Bianchi was illegally requiring his employees to perform campaign functions on taxpayer time. After two trials and two acquittals, it has not been money well spent. And to add insult to injury, taxpayers could still be on the hook to pay for McQueen’s defense in Bianchi’s civil-rights lawsuit against him since McQueen was hired by the county to conduct the prosecution. As we’ve said before, we supported an initial probe into allegations from Bianchi’s former secretary who provided testimony that Bianchi was requiring employees to perform campaign work. The activity probably should have stopped there, and McHenry County Judge Gordon Graham certainly should not have authorized allowing the special prosecutors to explan their scope resulting in another ill-conceived indictment that was thrown out at trial. But the fact is that two investigations and two trials happened and the county has to pay the lawyers and investigators who did the work whether it was good or bad. We certainly hope that someone stops the bleeding and stops it very soon.

Support ‘Human Race’

North Korea’s saber-rattling The North Korean army warned the U.S. government that its military has been cleared to wage an attack using “smaller, lighter and diversified nuclear” weapons. The threat from the unnamed army spokesman is one in a series of escalating warnings from North Korea, which has railed for weeks against joint U.S. and South Korean military exercises in South Korea and has expressed anger over tightened sanctions for a February nuclear test. It’s difficult to know just serious to take the North Koreans. Their constant bashing of the U.S. has been going on for years. But with its new leader in place and uncertainty about how he and the military interact, there is the possibility that North Korea could attempt a nuclear attack on South Korea, Japan or the U.S. The Times and Democrat of Orangeburg (S.C.)

Clearing cloud of myths To the Editor: Prophet Jesus claimed, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel,” (Matt. 15:24). As a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, a sect of Islam, I believe that he was saved from the cross and continued on his journey and fulfilled his mission given to him by God. Some theologians argue that he did actually save the people of Israel by bringing God’s message to the people of Jerusalem. However, John explains that Jesus clarifies

his exact mission. “I lay down my life for the sheep. And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice,” (John 10:1516). The sheep who are “not of this fold” means “not of this land.” He still needed to finish his divine duty by reaching others. The founder of my religion, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, in his book, “Jesus in India,” had written that Jesus actually survived the crucifixion and fled from the land. He eventually settled in Kashmir, where we believe he is buried. Why would God send Jesus to the people on earth just to fail? If he had died on the cross, then his heavenly mission could not have been completed. By accepting that Jesus lived on to fulfill his divine mission, Christians would come closer to the real Jesus and clear the cloud of myths surrounding his life.

Wrong information To the Editor: I take issue with the Social Security benefit numbers that were published March 28 in the “Another View” section from the Evansville, Ind., Courier & Press. It stated that benefits max out at $1,320 a month, $15,840 a year at age 70. I retired at age 62 in 2008, and my benefit is substantially larger than what was reported. Checking with Social Security online, max benefits at age 70 for someone retiring this year are $3,350 a month, $40,200 a year. I think that by publishing the wrong numbers is showing Social Security in a negative light. I wish you would check the facts before they are published. Ronald Gurak Oakwood Hills

Proposed gun-control ideas wouldn’t have stopped Newton WASHINGTON – The biggest obstacle to the Obama administration’s push for tighter gun control may be its own best argument: Newtown. This is because nothing proposed in the gun-control debates would have prevented the mass killing of children at Sandy Hook Elementary School, and everybody knows it. At best, tighter gun laws will make us feel better. Let’s review: The Newtown killer was a mentally disturbed young man living with his mother. She had legally purchased her arsenal and had even taught her son how to responsibly handle firearms. What she did not do was: (1) deal appropriately with her son’s mental illness; (2) safely contain her guns so that her son could not access them. As much as anyone, I am eager to do whatever will make a difference. But I’m unconvinced that what is being proposed will provide the solution we seek. Universal background checks are a perfectly good idea, except that they won’t stop the burglar

who recently cleaned out our house of all our legally purchased rifles and shotguns, including an antique belonging to my great-grandfather, who, as sheriff of Barnwell County, S.C., confiscated the gun from the triple murderer he tracked for three days and finally killed. (I want that gun back, please.) Those guns are now in circulation among an element of society that has no intention of submitting to a background check or any other well-intentioned effort to ensure that only good guys have guns. Should we insist that buyers at gun shows submit to a quick background check as they would at any gun store? Sure. Why not? Federally licensed vendors at gun shows already have to conduct background checks, but everyday people who sell among themselves at the shows do not. Few beyond the gun lobby object to this step, but even this wouldn’t have prevented Newtown. Meanwhile, what about my neighbor, Mike, who, theoretically, wants to buy a shotgun I no longer use? Is it really practical to insist

VIEWS Kathleen Parker that he submit to a background check? Gun-control proponents would have Mike and me run down to Dick’s Sporting Goods (or some other “portal”) and run through a quick background check. We could do that. Or, I could just give Mike the gun and he could hand me a couple hundred dollars one of these days. If a law isn’t enforceable, is it a good law? Does it prevent Newtown for neighbors to run through a little ritual that creates yet another level of government oversight for no real practical purpose other than to create a gun registry, which, whether one thinks this is a reasonable idea, gun-control advocates insist they don’t want? But we have to do something, don’t we? Banning assault weapons and large magazines is appealing. But

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

what, exactly, is an assault weapon, anyway? Most think of assault weapons as machine guns, but many popular firearms, from ranch rifles to handguns, are, like the AR-15 used at Newtown, semi-automatic. This means that they fire only one round each time the trigger is pulled and the gun automatically reloads. Do we ban all semi-automatic weapons? Limiting the size of magazines also seems like a common-sense solution. Then again, maybe a killer would simply carry several small magazines and swap them out as Eric Harris did at Columbine High School in 1999 and Seung-Hui Cho did at Virginia Tech in 2007. Harris was armed with a Hi-Point 995 carbine with 13 magazines of 10 rounds each. His partner, Dylan Klebold, carried a semi-automatic handgun and a short-barrel shotgun, which gun experts will tell you is the most effective close-range weapon of all. And Cho used two handguns that are not considered “assault weapons.” In a country with an estimated

250 million to 300 million guns, imposing new laws on honest people is problematic and bureaucratically complicated. Add to the conundrum our politics of individual freedom combined with the exploitation of emotion to craft what is likely an impotent solution, it is little wonder our congressional leadership is bamboozled. The fact is, crazy people who would commit a Newtown-type massacre constitute an infinitesimal percentage of the population. Criminals will always have guns, as the murderer on death row told me when I first wrote about this issue 30 years ago. And forcing law-abiding gun owners to submit to new regulations will not prevent another Newtown, or Aurora, or Columbine. This is not to say we should do nothing. But, lest we delude ourselves, whatever we do, we will do because it makes us feel better. Perhaps that is enough. • Kathleen Parker’s email address is kathleenparker@washpost. com.

Legislation first filed in June 2011 • BILL Continued from page A1 tax cap works for government and against the taxpayer by guaranteeing that taxing bodies can collect the inflationary increase. Franks first filed the bill in June 2011 during the previous General Assembly, citing taxpayer outrage that their property-tax bills were increasing despite the fact that their Rep. Jack property values Franks had plummeted with the bursting of the housing bubble. It cleared the House on the second try, but stalled in the Senate. Lobbyists representing the state’s 7,000 units of government oppose the legislation, saying it would hinder governments’ ability to keep up with rising costs of supplies, as well as unfunded state

mandates and other expenses. Several taxing bodies, such as the McHenry County Board, voluntarily kept their levies flat for property-tax bills due this year, while most others decided to collect the 3 percent increase they are entitled to under the cap. The McHenry County Assessor’s Office fielded more than 10,000 assessment appeals for property-tax bills due this year. The number of appeals each year has set successive records since the housing bubble burst. By comparison, the assessor fielded only 677 appeals a decade ago. House lawmakers earlier this week approved another bill from a local representative aimed at protecting

against property-tax increases. The House on Tuesday passed House Bill 983, which seeks to make it easier for voters to force alternate revenue bonds to a referendum by decreasing the number of signatures needed and increasing the time limit to collect them. Alternate revenue bonds, which do not require voter approval, rely on an identified revenue stream to pay them back. But if the revenue falls short, making up the difference falls to the taxpayers by way of a property-tax increase. The bill was introduced by Rep. David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, after McHenry County College officials indicated they could issue alternate revenue bonds for a proposed expansion, and pay them off with revenue from a proposed health club. Franks is co-sponsor of McSweeney’s bill, and McSweeney has co-sponsored Franks’ tax cap bill.

Report: Syrian air power committing war crimes By BARBARA SURK The Associated Press BEIRUT – President Bashar Assad has exploited his greatest advantage in the Syrian civil war – his air power – to push back rebel advances and prevent the opposition from setting up a rival government in its northern stronghold. Along the way, fighter jets and helicopters have hit civilian targets such as hospitals, bakeries and residential buildings, according to a report released Thursday by a U.S.-based human rights group. It accused the regime of committing war crimes with indiscriminate airstrikes that have killed more than 4,000 civilians since summer. The Human Rights Watch report said Assad’s air force has dropped “imprecise and inherently indiscriminate” munitions, including cluster bombs, on civilian areas. In recent months, large parts of northern Syria near the border with Turkey have fallen to the rebels, including several neighborhoods of Aleppo, the country’s largest city. With the recent influx of more advanced weapons and other foreign aid, the rebels

A U.S.-based rights group Thursday accused Syria of war crimes by indiscriminate and sometimes deliberate airstrikes against civilians, killing at least 4,000 people since last summer. have also made major gains in the south, seizing military bases and towns in the strategically important region between Damascus and the border with Jordan. Two years into the uprising, however, the Assad regime’s control of the skies is hampering rebels’ efforts to hold on to territory they capture with any efficiency. An interim leader of the opposition has been elected, but he and others opposed to Assad have made only a few, brief forays into rebel-controlled

areas. “The air force is extremely important for Assad right now,” said Joseph Holliday, a Syria analyst at the Washington-based Institute for the Study of War. “It has allowed Assad to prevent rebels from establishing a part of Syria where people can be safe and the opposition can focus on governing the place,” he said. “It very difficult to do that without a space that is free from constant harassment from the aircraft.”

equally divided between the two parties, had no issues left to resolve in person, and no more negotiating sessions were planned. Remaining details were left to aides, who were at work completing drafts of the bill. Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois said the bill probably would be introduced Tuesday. The landmark legislation would overhaul legal immi-

gration programs, require all employers to verify the legal status of their workers, greatly boost border security and put the estimated 11 million immigrants living in the U.S. illegally on a path to citizenship. A top second-term priority for President Barack Obama, it would enact the biggest changes to U.S. immigration law in more than a quarter century.

8NATION BRIEF Senate group wraps up work on immigration bill

Monica Maschak – mmaschak@shawmedia.com

IHOP waitress Christine Schaefer laughs with Russ Nolte, a 1951 Crystal Lake Community High School graduate, as she presents him with a “Lunch Hero” hat made by another group member.

To some, event class reunion each month • CLASSMATES Continued from page A1 from the classes before and after them. They brought their spouses and friends and, before they knew it, their IHOP lunches were filled with 30 – and sometimes 40 – people. “It’s like a class reunion once a month,” the 79-year-old Wells said. “It’s a lot of fun. We really enjoy it.” The monthly tradition has brought with it several smaller traditions. The group has had the same waitress each Thursday since their first lunch in 2005. They’ve written out a list of 11 rules for members to abide by, some of which include “Interact with those around you,” “Separate checks and tipping,” and, of course, “No age limit.” IHOP waitress Christine Schaefer brings Russ Nolte, another founding member of the group, a surprise meal each time he comes in. “One day I came in and I couldn’t make up my mind

on what to order,” Nolte said. “Christine said, ‘You don’t have to.’ Since then, she’s always got something different for me.” On Thursday, Schaefer helped the group celebrate its milestone by baking two cakes, and a sign was made marking the 100th lunch. “They’re like my family,” she said. “I would not miss this day for the world.” The group talks about high school football games and girls they used to date in high school. They swap war stories and talk about their medical issues. (They meet on Thursdays because that’s when people have the fewest doctor’s appointments.) When Nolte retired, people told him that he needed to do three things: exercise your mind, exercise your body and socialize. “This socializing helps all of us,” Nolte said. “I look forward to this more than anything.” Of the regularly attending members, only two or three

have died in the eight years since the group has been meeting, Nolte said. Many in the group point to the monthly lunches for keeping their minds strong and their spirits high. The Thursday IHOP group will continue to meet “until they bury me in the ground,” Wells said. They don’t have a Facebook group or an email list to remind people when to come. They won’t be checking into Foursquare once they arrive or tweeting their friends at the lunch table. In fact, you won’t see a cellphone during the entire meal. These members of the Class of 1951 believe that not only is there value in face-toface relationships, but they might just prolong your life. “This is something to live for and look forward to,” said Dick Aston, who has cancer and has been coming to each Thursday lunch since the third meeting in 2005. “It’s kept me alive.”

Official’s testimony worrisome for some lawmakers • STAFFING Continued from page A1 is based on 1,800 work-hours per year per caseworker handling 2,600 files, an agency spokeswoman said. Saddler’s testimony came before a House appropriations committee, and disconcerted some lawmakers. “The situation is unacceptable,” said Rep. Greg Harris. “We need to be sure to have the manpower to process these applications in a timely fashion because people are going without health care [and] their families are going without food because the burden on the workers is just too much.” Harris, a Chicago Democrat, is chairman of the committee that will make a recommendation on the agency’s

budget. He said the department also needs a technology upgrade – allowing, for example, people to submit assistance applications and other information online. “People won’t have to sit and wait for an appointment with a caseworker or leave a voicemail and hope that somebody will call them back,” he said. The agency is scheduled to lose 500 employees – none of them caseworkers – by the coming fiscal year. Saddler is proposing putting caseworkers in those 500 positions. But Republican Rep. Patricia Bellock of Hinsdale worries that the 600 new caseworkers won’t be enough should the General Assembly approve a federally subsidized expansion of Medicaid – the government health program for the poor and disabled. Es-

timates show that hundreds of thousands additional Illinois residents could become eligible under the planned expansion. “People need to get seen because they’re the most vulnerable population,” Bellock said. “But if you take another half a million people, you’re going to have to double that workforce.” Yet, Bellock warned, the state’s fiscal condition does not have room for that many new caseworkers. A measure that would authorize the Medicaid enrollment increase cleared the Senate in February, and officials expect the House to vote on the issue before the Legislature adjourns in May. Quinn has proposed increasing the department’s funding 8 percent to $6.3 billion for next fiscal year.

WASHINGTON – Democratic and Republican negotiators have reached agreement on all the major elements of sweeping legislation to remake the nation’s immigration laws and expect to unveil the bill next week, officials said Thursday. After months of arduous closed-door negotiations, the “Gang of Eight” senators,

Union Village Trustee Stan McDonald looks at the newly built $1.5 million water treatment plant Thursday in Union. The new water treatment plant will help Union manage their water supply and even limit future water restrictions placed on residents.

Union to showcase new water treatment plant Village hopes added capacity prevents watering bans By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com UNION – Village officials will unveil a new $1.5 million water treatment plant today that should help Union manage its water supply and even limit future water restrictions placed on residents. Union has predominantly relied on a shallow water well to supply water to its residents, but it started to produce less during the past decade, Village Trustee Stan McDonald said. The village pumped water from a second, deeper well to compensate but was limited in its capacity since officials had no way of treating the deeper water supply naturally affected by pollutants such as radium and barium. “This project has been in the works for years. ... It’s a relief to have it completed since we are coming into the summer months

WOODSTOCK – A Watercolor Show & Reception will be from 3 to 6 p.m. Saturday at the Woodstock Opera House, 121 W. Van Buren St., Woodstock. The event will feature the work of local artist James Mansfield. Many paintings will be available for purchase. Admission is free. For information, call 815-3384212.

“This project has been in the works for years. ... It’s a relief to have it completed since we are coming into the summer months when people will be needing more water.” Stan McDonald Union village trustee when people will be needing more water,” said McDonald, who also oversees the village’s water department. The $1.5 million project started two years ago and was mostly funded through federal grants administered by McHenry County. McHenry County Board representatives, such as Chairwoman

Tina Hill, and a representative from U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin’s office will help Union officially unveil the project at 10 a.m. during a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 17617 E. Jefferson St. The public is invited. The prolonged drought last summer forced Union to place a watering ban on residents to avoid taxing the shallow water well. With the completion of a new treatment plant, the village finally can treat the deeper water supply connected to the village’s second well. The added capacity should prevent water bans in the future, McDonald said. “Now we have an unlimited amount of water that we have, where as before we were limited because we were blending the shallow well and the deep well,” McDonald said.

ISLAND LAKE – Developers looking to bring in commercial and residential units near Griswold Lake have decided to pause the process until the village’s newly elected officials take office. At the request of the developers, the Village Board agreed to push back a vote to annex unincorporated land around the lake that had been scheduled for Thursday, Village “Most Clerk Connee Maseverybody cillino said. Meanwhile, does not Plan Commission want to Chairman Wolfgang Neumeier provide any estimated that as many as 300 peo- variances on ple filed into the the current commission’s second public hearing zoning.” Wednesday night, as the developers Wolfgang presented a revised Neumeier plan that offered Plan Commission some compromise chairman but ultimately didn’t meet the needs of either the plan commission or the public. Many concerns still stem from overcrowding in the neighborhood. The developer is asking for changes in zoning to allow more housing units in less space, Neumeier said. “Most everybody does not want to provide any variances on the current zoning,” he said. Developers will present a third version of the plan at the next continuation of the hearing, scheduled for May 30. The annexation has been tabled indefinitely. In order for the development to be built, the Village Board would need to approve the annexation as well as the development. The board would hear a recommendation from the plan commission before voting on the development. Conny Heggen, of the homeowners

nois remains one of the least covered 2-1-1 states in the country. Illinois and Arkansas are the only two states where 2-1-1 reaches less than 20 percent of the population. In 2003 legislation passed in Springfield to implement 2-1-1 in the state, but it was vetoed by then-Gov. Rod Blagojevich and put on hold in 2004. It wasn’t until 2009 that three pilot sites – Bloomington, Greater St. Louis and the Quad Cities – were chosen to begin implementing the service.

The former St. Charles fire chief is set to become the next chief for the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District. Patrick Mullen, who retired from the St. Charles Fire Department, is tentatively scheduled to begin work with the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills department on Wednesday. A contract has yet to be finalized, and Board President Virgil “Corky” Corless would not comment on Mullen’s pay until a deal was signed. Corless said he hoped to have a deal finalized by today. Interim Chief Patrick Gericke will stay on until at least April 19 to help with the transition. Gericke did not

gonquin’s department when it comes to the number of personnel and call volume, Corless said. “He works with [an] accreditation association, going out doing evaluations, works with departments going through the accreditation process, and he has extensive background working with labor [unions],” Corless said. “He came across as a very

progressive, disciplined professional.” Mullen will look into whether the district goes through the accreditation process, Corless said. “A majority of the board is still there, I would think they’re going to look into that very seriously,” Corless said. “It’s about a three- to fouryear process.” Corless lost his bif for re-election to the board on Tuesday. The fire district needed a new chief because its former chief, Kevin Rynders, agreed to resign in January. Mullen was one of 27 people who applied for the job. Six people interviewed. The fire district paid $2,000 to the Illinois Fire Chiefs Association to conduct the search.

LAKEMOOR: BOOK GIVEAWAY

WOODSTOCK: COLLECTING

River East Public Library to host World Book Night

Environmental Defenders plan recycling drive in Woodstock

NORTHWEST HERALD LAKEMOOR – On April 23, 25,000 volunteers from Chicago to Lakemoor and McHenry to Maine will give away half a million free books in more than 6,000 towns and cities across the country. The River East Public Library is not only a host for Givers, several of the library’s staff are Givers for the second year. They will be out in our community surprising people with free books. World Book Night U.S. is an ambitious campaign to give thousands of free, specially printed paperbacks to light or nonreaders across America on one day. Volunteer book lovers help promote reading by going out into their communities and shar-

ing free copies of books they love. The mission of World Book Night is to seek out those without the means or access to printed books. Some of the volunteers in our community will be picking up their books at River East Public Library and sharing them in locations as diverse as VA hospitals, rollerskating rinks, nursing homes, schools and food pantries. At 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, the library will welcome local Givers to thank them for spreading the joy of reading to our community and pick up their boxes at a pre-World Book Night reception. The books were chosen by an independent panel of booksellers and librarians through several rounds of voting. The printing of the

free books was possible due to the generosity of the authors, publishers and book manufacturing companies. Best-selling authors Ann Patchett and James Patterson are this year’s honorary chairpeople. Although it is too late to be a Giver this year, those interested in participating in the future can sign up for the WBN mailing list for news and updates on World Book Night 2014. The free WBN editions are not available at the River East Public Library at any time, except for the WBN volunteers to take into the community, but the library will be displaying the books in their regular editions all spring. For information about World Book Night, visit www.WorldBookNight.org.

State lawmakers want online charter schools on standby By JONATHAN BILYK SPRINGFIELD – As local school boards rejected this week a request from a proposed online charter school that would draw students from their schools, state lawmakers appear poised to slap a hold on the creation of virtual schools until regulations and guidelines to govern them can be crafted. State Rep. Linda Chapa LaVia, D-Aurora, introduced legislation Thursday to place a one-year moratorium on web-based virtual charter schools. Earlier this week, Chapa LaVia had called for a threeyear moratorium. But she said that time span was “arbitrary” and she was open to reducing the length of time the ban would remain in place. “This is the first time Illinois has ever seen anything like this,” Chapa LaVia said. “And I’m not willing to risk something that would be detrimental to our children and our schools.” Chapa LaVia’s legislation has passed a state House committee, and is headed to the full chamber for a possible vote. The legislation arose in response to a proposal from Illinois Virtual Learning Solutions to open the Illinois Virtual Charter School at Fox River Valley. The online school was proposed to include students from 18 school districts in Kane, DeKalb, DuPage, Ken-

“This is the first time Illinois has ever seen anything like this, and I’m not willing to risk something that would be detrimental to our children and our schools.” Linda Chapa LaVia State representative, D-Aurora dall, McHenry and Will counties, and would be funded by local district funds, estimated at up to $8,000 per student. While the nonprofit Illinois Virtual Learning Solutions would govern the virtual school, it has said actual operations for the school would be handled by Virginia-based, for-profit company K12 Inc. The virtual school concept is in place in other states, including Tennessee and Florida. But officials in those two states have raised questions over the virtual charter school operations, noting participating students’ low test scores, among other issues. In Illinois, education officials have also cited concerns over a lack of provisions in the state’s charter schools law that could be applied to such virtual charter schools. At least 10 of the 18 school boards in the proposed charter school’s area — including Kaneland District 302, St. Charles District 303, Geneva District 304 and Batavia District 101 – have rejected the

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com LAKEMOOR – Bringing businesses to Lakemoor is at the top of Village President Todd Weihofen’s agenda. Weihofen, who won his second term Tuesday, plans on taking an “aggressive approach to business,” developing a marketing strategy to reach out to business and perhaps hiring an additional staff member to specifically handle planning and development, he said. “We’ve learned a lot [over the past four years],” he said. “We’ve got a good plan. We’ve got a very cohesive approach, especially now.” Weihofen received 78 percent of the 424 votes cast, defeating challenger Tina Asmus and Trustee Kimberly Beach. Beach threw her hat into the ring as a write-in candidate after she was kicked off the ballot as a trustee candidate for not having enough valid signatures on her nominating petitions.

“We’ve learned a lot [over the past four years].” Todd Weihofen Lakemoor village president Trustee candidate Joseph Enright also was removed from the ballot by the Lakemoor Electoral Board, leaving four candidates vying for three seats. Incumbent Trustees Phil Lonigro and Colin McIntyre will be joined by newcomer Alexis Aguilar. Aguilar got involved with the village as a member of a Rockwell development citizens group, Weihofen said. Bringing new businesses to Lakemoor and promoting the growth that goes with it are also her top concerns, according to a questionnaire response submitted to the Northwest Herald. She also wants to encourage resident involvement. Aguilar didn’t return a call for comment Wednesday.

virtual school proposal. The remaining districts are set to vote on it next week. Virtual Learning Solutions could appeal those decisions to a state board. Lawmakers have sought to slow the process down. State Reps. Bob Pritchard, R-Hinckley, and Kay Hatcher, R-Yorkville, have signed on as co-sponsors to Chapa LaVia’s legislation, after Chapa LaVia reduced the moratorium to one year and agreed to exempt online learning programs in place in Chicago and other Illinois public schools. The state lawmakers said they believed time was needed to commission a task force to draft guidelines and suggested legislation to specifically address online charter schools. “There really aren’t standards for an all-virtual school,” Pritchard said. Hatcher said allowing online education was intended to give public schools greater access to quality instruction, such as foreign language instruction for rural districts or better science teachers for inner city schools. “This moratorium is the right thing to do, because the charter school statute was conceived in a different time, before there was any idea, really, of what virtual learning could become,” Hatcher said. “Nobody’s against online schooling. “This will just give us the time we need to gather data that could affirm it one way or the other.”

Actors gather at service for Ebert Several counties set to use 2-1-1 service

By CARYN ROUSSEAU The Associated Press CHICAGO – Hollywood came to Chicago on Thursday as actors, directors, film critics and studio presidents honored late movie reviewer Roger Ebert in his hometown. All of those who shared memories at the Chicago Theatre cheered Ebert as a champion of movies and a critic who used his influence to help filmmakers find audiences. He died April 4 at age 70 after a years-long battle with cancer. Ebert worked at the Chicago Sun-Times for more than 40 years. The day before his death, he wrote in a post on his blog that he was taking a break from his schedule of almost-daily movie reviewing because the cancer had recurred. He won national fame when he teamed with fellow film critic Gene Siskel of the Chicago Tribune in 1975 for a television show that had them each give a thumbs-up or thumbs-down rating to the latest releases. Actors and Chicago natives John and Joan Cusack, who appeared together at Thursday’s memorial called “Roger Ebert: A Celebration of Life,” remembered Ebert as one of the city’s icons. John Cusack said he and his

• SERVICE Continued from page B1 Several counties in central Illinois have since acquired the service, and United Ways in Kane, Kendall and Lake counties are expected to begin using 2-1-1 in the near future. “The greatest thing that 2-1-1 can do is track unmet needs,” said Karen Zangerle, executive director of PATH crisis, which provides 2-1-1 service to central and northern Illinois. “So often unmet AP photo

CHICAGO – A Cook County judge says he will appoint a special prosecutor to determine if new trials will be granted several imprisoned men who claim they were tortured by ex-Chicago Police Cmdr. Jon Burge. They claim Burge’s actions and those of his underlings forced them to confess to crimes they didn’t commit. Chief Judge Paul Biebel Jr. said Thursday the Cook County state’s attorney’s office has a “conflict of interest” and shouldn’t participate in their cases. The state’s attorney’s office did not comment on the ruling. The Chicago Sun-Times reports Biebel will seek a special prosecutor from state’s attorney’s offices throughout Illinois. Burge was convicted in 2010 of lying in testifying in a lawsuit he’d never participated or witnessed suspect torture. He’s serving a 4 ∏-year sentence.

Former official who faced ethics fine joins board CHICAGO – A committee of Cook County Democrats has chosen a former state transportation official who just paid off a pending ethics fine to replace a commissioner who was ousted after his tax evasion conviction. Stanley Moore was chosen Thursday after a dozen people made presentations in an effort to replace former Commissioner

“He was always supportive of artists. He always gave you a fair shake. Chicago’s lost a great icon but he’ll always be with us.” John Cusack, Chicago actor, remembering Roger Ebert sister, Joan, would watch Ebert and Siskel growing up. “He was always supportive of artists. He always gave you a fair shake,” John Cusack said. “Chicago’s lost a great icon but he’ll always be with us.” Joan Cusack read a letter from President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama. The Obamas remembered Ebert as a “cul-

tural leader.” Earlier, Todd McCarthy, film critic for publications like Variety, said a key to Ebert’s success was that he was “a populist without prejudice.” “He was neither highbrow nor low-brow,” McCarthy said. “In the world of film criticism for 46 years there was Roger Ebert and then there was the rest of

needs are anecdotal in nature. Our sophisticated system allows us to track the unmet needs and track the reason of the unmet need.” 2-1-1 will cost the United Way roughly $66,000 a year for service in McHenry County. The McHenry County Community Foundation also contributed $7,300, which covered the additional costs. “2-1-1, I think, in 10 years will be as well known as 9-11,” Zangerle said. “It will provide a new social utility by being able to access a live voice and a human heart.”

William Beavers. Among those seeking the post was former County Board President Todd Stroger. Beavers was convicted last month of tax evasion for not declaring as income campaign cash he gambled away on slot machines. The law required that he immediately resign.

NATO protester pleads guilty to bomb charge CHICAGO – A 28-year-old activist arrested around the time of the NATO summit in Chicago last year has pleaded guilty to attempting to purchase materials to make a pipe bomb. A Cook County court judge on Thursday sentenced Mark Neiweem to three years in prison for the bomb charge and a probation violation. The Chicago man’s attorney, Steve Salzman, says his client could be free by November based on various credits, including time served since his arrest. Prosecutors have said Neiweem wrote out a list of ingredients to construct a pipe bomb and indicated that model rocket engines for it could be bought at Hobby Lobby stores.

Bat-swinging store owner fends off gunmen CHICAGO – A man faces charges in the shooting of a Chicago store owner who furiously swung a baseball bat to fend off a pair of robbers. The dramatic confrontation

was captured on the gift shop’s surveillance video. It shows Luis Quizhpe clobbering one of the robbers, who was holding a gun to the owner’s brother-in-law. The gunman fired multiple shots at the owner of the Logan Square store, hitting him in the leg. But the wound failed to stop Quizhpe’s vigorous counterassault.

BH rep.: Let voters decide on lieutenant governor SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois House wants to let voters decide whether to keep state government’s No. 2 job. Rep. David McSweeney’s proposed constitutional amendment on the long-derided post of lieutenant governor passed 81-30 Thursday. If it gets the Senate’s OK voters would decide in 2014. McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, says eliminating the job would save $2 million a year. The attorney general would fill a vacancy at the top. Past efforts to close the office have foundered. Lieutenant governors play largely ceremonial roles. One lieutenant governor quit in 1981 citing boredom. One resigned in 1998 for another job but relented. Two lieutenant governors in the past 45 years – including current Gov. Pat Quinn – took the top spot upon a vacancy.

She said Ebert had an “unsurpassed body of work.”

Heggen said the community also has been put at ease by the village’s choice of mayor-elect Charles Amrich, who attended Wednesday night. “To be quite honest, when Amrich stood up, the whole crowd went crazy,” Heggen said. “I think they feel Mr. Amrich is considering the village’s voices and concerns.”

Official pleads guilty in tainted water case, another awaits trial By MICHAEL TARM The Associated Press CHICAGO – A longtime suburban Chicago water official pleaded guilty Thursday to lying about drawing drinking water from a tainted well – the first conviction in a scandal that left village residents fearing for their health. Frank Scaccia, 61, stood before a federal judge in Chicago with his hands folded as he pleaded guilty to one count of engaging in a false-statement scheme. He faces a maximum prison term of up to five years, though prosecutors planned to seek less than that. Speaking in a hushed, calm voice, the heavyset Scaccia admitted he had lied about piping in polluted water for decades to supplement Crestwood’s supply from Lake Michigan. In one of a series of questions before she accepted the guilty plea, U.S. District Judge Joan Gottschall asked

Scaccia if a public official – who she did not name – had asked him to mix in the pollute water. “I was following directives,” he said haltingly. “Following directives. But you did do it?” she asked again. “Yes, your honor,” he responded. Officials drew the tainted water for 20 years until 2008 after environmental officials warned in the mid-1980s that cancer-causing chemicals had oozed into the well, prosecutors said. It was apparently designed as a money-saving measure: Officials saved the village of 11,000 nearly $400,000 annually by mixing in contaminated water with the cleaner but pricier lake water, the prosecution alleged. Pending lawsuits blame the well water for a variety of illnesses. A 2010 health department report did find cancer rates were higher than average in Crestwood, but it

didn’t make a definite link to the tainted water. Scaccia also played a role in telling residents in annual consumer reports that the village’s only source of drinking water was Lake Michigan when he and other officials knew that wasn’t true, prosecutors said. Scaccia changed his plea just days before his trial was slated to begin in the same courtroom. The trial for his co-defendant – another former water official, Theresa Neubauer – is scheduled for April 22. At Thursday’s hearing, Scaccia told the judge he was on anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medication, but he assured her he was thinking clearly and able to enter a plea. No sentencing date was immediately set for Scaccia. Prosecutors said Thursday they’ll ask for a term of up to around two years, while a defense attorney said he will argue probation is appropriate.

He was a life member and received his Senatorship in the JCI Senate. He was involved in many projects over the years, but took particular enjoyment working on the July 4th celebration every year.

Mr. Adolphus is survived by his wife, Sara; his stepchildren, Savannah Hodges and James Hodges, whom he loved as if they were his own; two sisters, Nancy Carol Adolphus and Barbara Ames; two nieces and a nephew; an uncle, Philip Adolphus of Rolling Meadows; and many good friends.

Cary-Grove’s Matt Sutherland rounds third base during the second inning of Thursday’s game against Woodstock North in Cary. C-G won, 11-1.

Trojans take advantage of walks, Thunder’s mistakes By JOE STEVENSON CARY – Cary-Grove utilized its economical offense Thursday, the one that gets the most out of every hit. The Trojans managed five hits and struck out nine times against Woodstock North, but they generated ample offense in other manners – drawing walks and running the bases aggressively. Junior right-hander Dean Christakes took care of everything else, tossing a five-hitter with six strikeouts at C-G defeated the Thunder,

11-1, in six innings Thursday in their Fox Valley Conference crossover baseball game. “We didn’t hit like we need to

or are capable of, but sometimes that’s the way the day goes,” Trojans coach Don Sutherland said. “Their pitchers walked people and we turned those into doubles with stolen bases. Our kids did a good job running the bases.” C-G (9-3 overall, 4-0 FVC Valley) took advantage of 12 walks. The Thunder (1-4, 0-3 FVC Fox) also struggled when Trojans runners pressed the issue on the bases. “I tell our kids, especially against the Valley teams, if you make mistakes, errors, it’s a tough road to go back and beat those guys,” Thunder coach Ian Rago said. “Once we

Soler’s tirade could be bad sign CHICAGO – Less than two years into his American professional baseball career, Cuban outfielder Jorge Soler has an image problem. Before Soler, the starting rightfielder for Advanced-A Daytona, took the field Wednesday against the Clearwater Threshers, the 21-year-old stood out for his 6-foot-4, 215-pound frame and ability to crush a baseball. But a quick, emotional decision to grab a bat Jorge Soler and head toward the Threshers’ dugout after an on-field argument now evokes images of former Cubs head cases Carlos Zambrano and Milton Bradley. Soler received a five-game suspension from the Florida State League as well as an undisclosed fine for his actions after the seventh inning of Wednesday’s game. The altercation began when Clearwater second baseman Carlos Alonso fell on Soler, who slid into the base, prompting an argument that had been building all game. President of baseball operations

INSIDE THE CUBS Meghan Montemurro Theo Epstein said Soler spoke with Cubs front office personnel Thursday morning and explained he had been jawing back and forth with Alonso throughout the game. However, once Alonso said something about his Soler’s family he finally lost his cool. The Daytona Beach News-Journal reported that he left Daytona and was headed to either Chicago or the Cubs’ Arizona home to meet with team officials. “He’s very well mannered, very respectful, very friendly,” Epstein said. “Keeps to himself for the most part, quick smile and good temperament. So this is just something that now that it’s happened we need to get ahead of it.” Soler’s explanation doesn’t excuse his actions, and the Cubs didn’t defend what he did. He made a conscious, and admittedly wrong, decision to get a bat from the dugout and approach the other team. If not for

That’s the most concerning part of the incident – he re-engaged after the argument at second had been diffused. Epstein believes, while disappointing, the altercation shouldn’t define Soler. “This is a great kid that’s already overcome a lot in his life and someone that we’re not worried about at all for the long haul,” Epstein said. “But it’s clear he’s been thrust into a high profile situation very suddenly and it’s our job as an organization to make sure he has the tools to make good decisions even in the heat of the moment.” The Cubs’ background checks and investigation into Soler’s history before signing him in June 2012 never revealed an issue, according to Epstein. Alfonso Soriano mentored Soler during spring training and the Cubs’ outfielder suggested the cultural change and pressure of living up to his nine-year, $30 million contract, which included a $6 million signing bonus, could explain the outburst.

make mistakes, those teams don’t make mistakes, and that’s what hurts us. There’s still some things we need to clean up.” Daniel Vilardo had a double and triple and two RBIs for the Trojans. Jeremy Vasquez ripped a sharp two-RBI single that ended the game in the sixth inning. Other runs came off sacrifice flies, double steals and a squeeze bunt. “When we put that pressure on it broke the floodgates open and we were able to get more and more runs,” Vilardo said.

CHICAGO – Take a good look when the Blackhawks and Detroit Red Wings step onto the ice for the opening faceoff today at the United Center. There’s a good chance it will mark their final meeting as division rivals. “For me, personally, it’s not anything I’m going to miss,” Hawks forward Daniel Carcillo said. Yeah, well. A lot of us will. At the end of this season, the Wings will pack their red-andwhite bags and move to the Eastern Conference. It’s part of a big realignment plan the NHL approved Next last month. The Hawks will Detroit at stay in the WestBlackhawks, ern Conference as 7:30 p.m. today, part of a sevenCSN, AM-720 team division that in includes Colorado, Dallas, Minnesota, Nashville, St. Louis and Winnipeg. The rest of the west will include Anaheim, Calgary, Edmonton, Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Jose and Vancouver. No Detroit. That’s too bad. Hawks games are a lot of fun no matter which opponent is in the building, but when it’s the Wings, the excitement at the “Madhouse on Madison” hits another level. The Original Six rivals have shared a division for more than three decades, dating to the Norris Division, and have played each other 724 times during the regular season. If you guessed the Hawks are 277-354-84-9 in those matchups, you are an amazing guesser. The Wings dominated the rivalry for a few decades, only to see the Hawks take control during the past few seasons. All the while, Hawks fans have screamed in unison with derisive chants about Detroit no matter which team is sitting on the visitors’ bench. What are Hawks fans supposed to do now? Rip on the city of Winnipeg? Is that even a city? For all I know, it’s a village or a township. Maybe we can settle on “Canadian outpost.” It’s not like the Wings are going away forever. But, still. They’ll be an Eastern Conference team, just like the Buffalo Sabres or Florida Panthers or Carolina Hurricanes or any other club that makes one-time visits during a normal season. Yet the Wings aren’t any other club. That’s why Hawks coach Joel Quenneville expects the heated rivalry to survive. “I still think it will always be in place,” Quenneville said Thursday after practice. “Those games will be even more exciting as you go along, knowing that they’re only coming in here once a year and we go there once a year as well. “It’s been a special rivalry throughout the years. I still think that it will be recaptured quickly when we do play one another.” It’s kind of like when a friend moves away. You’ll keep tabs on one another from afar. You’ll still see each other every now and then. You’ll make new friends, or in this case, new rivals.

Woods’ comeback complete only when putting comes back

Jacobs QB Mooney visits NIU; recruiting heats up Jacobs football coach Bill Mitz believed it was only a matter of time before the recruiting buzz started to swarm around Golden Eagles quarterback Bret Mooney. Consider it started. Mooney, a 2014 prospect, visited Northern Illinois last week, beginning a recruiting campaign that is expected to include several schools before Mooney makes a final decision. Mooney said he watched one of the Huskies’ spring practices last week and that he has been told by NIU coaches that they plan to offer scholarships to two quarterbacks. In a text message Thursday, Mooney said he is among the “few” NIU is looking at. The 6-foot-4, 210-pound Mooney said he also expects several schools to come to Jacobs to watch him throw. Among them are Illinois, Western Michigan, Colgate and perhaps Northwestern. Last season, Mooney threw for 2,046 yards, 17 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. He completed 52.9 percent of his passes while also running for three touchdowns. – Jeff Arnold

Ex-Bears WR Hurd pleads guilty to drug charge DALLAS – Former Bears and Northern Illinois wide receiver Sam Hurd pleaded guilty Thursday to trying to buy cocaine and marijuana to set up a drug-distribution network, leaving a once-promising career in tatters as he faces a prison sentence of at least 10 years. Hurd, 27, pleaded guilty in federal court in Dallas to one count of possession of cocaine and marijuana with intent to distribute. He pleaded guilty days before his trial was scheduled to begin, without any promise of a more lenient sentence. He faces 10 years to life in prison when he is sentenced in July. Standing in an orange jumpsuit, the tall, lanky Hurd leaned into a microphone and asked to address the court. “I’m sorry for everything I’ve done,” he said in a brief statement, adding that he intended to plead guilty for months and never expected the process to take as long as it did.

Pats’ Dennard gets short jail sentence, probation LINCOLN, Neb. – New England Patriots cornerback Alfonzo Dennard was sentenced Thursday to 30 days in jail and two years of probation for assaulting a police officer outside a Lincoln bar last year. In court, Dennard apologized to his coaches, supporters, police and his family and promised to abide by the terms of the probation. He declined comment after leaving court. The jail sentence is set to begin in March. Dennard attorney Terry Dougherty said he would ask Lancaster County District Judge Stephanie Stacy to suspend the jail sentence if Dennard complies with the terms of his probation over the next 11 months. Stacy said she would consider such a motion at that time.

Sergio Garcia walks off the 11th green during the first round of the Masters on Thursday in Augusta, Ga. Garcia owns a share of the lead after 6-under-par 66.

THE MASTERS

Garcia, Leishman unlikely co-leaders Spaniard, Australian shoot 1st-round 66s By BARRY SVRLUGA The Washington Post AUGUSTA, Ga. – The Masters technically began Thursday, but they may as well just start the thing again this morning, since so little was sorted out over course of the first round. Sergio Garcia is among those atop the leaderboard, where he sits with Australian Marc Leishman, authors of the 6-under-par 66s that were the best rounds of the day. Yet what, exactly, are we to make of Garcia’s presence, not to mention his chances for the weekend? He is – and let’s be polite here – volatile, unpredictable, so often devoid of the joy that was once his trademark. In a moment of frankness and frustration four years ago, he said of Augusta National Golf Club, “I don’t like it.” So Garcia’s position after the best of his 49 career rounds in this event – he had previously broken 70 just six times – is tenuous, because he has only truly contended here once, back in 2002, back when he was still “El Nino.” Now, he is 33, and his pursuit of a major title that once seemed inevitable continues. Augusta seems an odd place to have it finally end. “Obviously, it’s not my favorite, my most favorite place,” Garcia said Thurs-

Tiger Woods watches his putt on the fourth green Thursday at the Masters in Augusta, Ga. suited for his game. So, yes, it’s surprising [he hasn’t won since ‘05].” Ironically, Stricker is one of the world’s best putters and the man who ignited Woods’ recent spring hot streak with a tip in Orlando that helped send Woods to his best putting week ever – 100 putts in 72 holes. For generations, golfers have found that what works on Tour does not necessarily translate to the Masters greens. After this round, Tiger grumbled that the speed of the greens wasn’t right. They looked fast. They putted slowly. Sounds like a stormy romance. “The greens were a little bit tough in the sense that they just didn’t have the sheen to them, they didn’t have the roll out. A couple of putts ... just weren’t that fast,” said Woods, noting that his playing partners left putts short, too. “The biggest challenge was just the speed of the greens. They just weren’t quite there.” Every golfer recognizes this syndrome: It’s not the fault of the greens. They are what they are. “They” do not have a problem of not being “quite there” where you think they should be. You have to adjust to them. Woods knows the nature of his problem. It has nothing to do with complex swing technique. It has little to do with karmic balance or the presence of his girlfriend Lindsey Vonn, the legendary skier, who walked up part of the first hole, her leg in a cast from her skiing accident in February. Woods is almost back to golf’s mountaintop, but not quite. The last climb, winning another major championship, is like the Hillary Step near Everest’s peak, a special treachery saved for last. That slippery spot, for Woods, will be on the short grass. Watch him putt from 4 to 12 feet. Those are the ones that usually decide the Masters. Just as important, Woods firmly believes that they do. If those putts start to drop, Tiger’s final climb back to the summit of his sport will be under way.

and 53-year-old Fred Couples are among those at 68 – and the tournament is already compelling. Which is to say: Please tune in today, because many of the lead characters have not yet asserted themselves, and Thursday was spent largely handing out bit parts to players both established and not. On a muggy, gray day, 22 players shot 70 or better, and precious few shot their way out of the event. “I’m right there,” said Tiger Woods, the world’s No. 1 player, and he could have spoken for any of the 33 players who broke par. He has been in this position before and excelled. Three of his four Masters victories opened with 70, exactly the score he shot Thursday. (The most recent, in 2005, opened with 74.) In those victories, he stood fifth, 15th, seventh and 33rd, respectively, after the first day. He’ll begin play Friday tied for 13th. “It was a good, solid day,” Woods said. So many others could say the same thing. Three-time Masters champ Phil Mickelson played a Mickelson-like round – five birdies, four bogeys – yet hung in there for 71. Rory McIlroy, winner of the most recent major, made five birdies and five bogeys in an uneven 72, yet remains alive.

AUGUSTA, Ga. – The Masters is a monster of many parts. But the beautiful beast is defined, most of all, by her diabolical undulating lightning greens, 18 creatures that seem to change in speed, texture and disposition from year to year and even from day to day. Just because the Augusta National greens have loved you once, or in Tiger Woods’ case four times, doesn’t mean they’ll love you again. Your stroke and nerves change a bit with the years. The rain, the growing season, who knows what, gives those greens a slightly new nature over time. Woods will figure out these Augusta National greens over the next three days, something he has consistently failed to do over the previous seven Masters, or his quest to complete one of golf’s most riveting comeback stories – from 58th in the world to major champion again – will fizzle. Why Woods and the Masters greens, which seemed a perfect match in ’97, ’01, ’02 and ’05, have been on the outs for so long, is a mystery. But after Thursday, they remain so. Once more, Woods floundered with the flat stick Thursday at Augusta, not making a putt longer than 6 feet and using his putter 34 times, including putts from the fringe. At the 14th and 15th holes, when he was near the top of the leaderboard at 3 under par, he faced a pair of 7-foot putts, the kind of Masters-length testers that so often define the next green jacket winner. Woods misread or mishit both, missing low left by two inches each time. His firstround 70, on what he called “a benign day” for scoring, left him in a tenable but worrisome 10-way tie for 13th place. Tiger is right that he shot a “good solid round” and that he’s “right in it.” Three of his four wins here have come after opening 70s. But the tale of Tiger and the Masters has, for many years, not been about injuries or swing changes, personal drama or new caddies and coaches. It’s been about his dadgum putting after he drives up Magnolia Lane. In recent years, Woods has had many problems of many kinds, except at the Masters. Here, he has the same problem, his stormy romance with the greens that once adored him. Year after year, no matter the state of his game, he has a chance to win. And putting has usually decided if he would. The results, please: a third, second, second, sixth, fourth and fourth. As Woods’ good friend Steve Stricker said, “Everything about this course is

GIRLS SOCCER: CL SOUTH 4, JOHNSBURG 0

Gators send Skyhawks to first loss J’burg held to 2 shots on goal By PATRICK MASON pmason@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – On a cool, hazy afternoon when it was tough to make out objects across the Crystal Lake South athletics fields, the Gators’ girls soccer team had no trouble finding the net through the soft drizzle. The Gators had the perfect mix of offensive pressure and defense in a 4-0 Fox Val-

ley Conference crossover win against Johnsburg (3-1) Thursday. They held the Skyhawks to two shots on goal while racking up 19 of their own, 12 of which came in the first half. “I was really impressed with the girls’ consistency,” South coach Anne Santucci said. “It was probably the most complete game we’ve had.” The Gators (5-1-1) had the ball in their own offensive zone for the majority of the game and continued to pressure the Skyhawks’ defense throughout the game. Whenever the forwards and midfielders had an open look, they would take a shot, and

even if they didn’t they would shoot to keep the pressure on. Kim Sulikowski scored the first goal for the Gators in the ninth minute and Bree Marshall tacked on another before the half. Amy Sulikowski scored the third goal of the game on a penalty kick in the 53rd minute, and Audrey Collard capped the scoring with a goal in the 61st minute. “We tried to just keep pushing all game long,” said midfielder Mackenzie Taldone who helped stretch the field, “and our defense really stepped up. They allowed us to do what we did on offense.” Johnsburg goalkeeper

Kelsey Stefka made her first start of the season and had to face a barrage of shots. With two minutes to go in the first half, Stefka faced four shots within a matter of seconds and blocked all four right in front of the goal. “She got thrown into the deep end there and despite the four goals she did a really, really great job,” Skyhawks coach Rob Eastland said. “You’d like your first start to be against a team other than a talented team like South, but we’ll make sure she’ll have confidence from this [match].” On the flip side, the South goalkeepers tried to stay sharp

amid a lack of action. Kiley Britten and Jaclyn Przybylski acted more like on-field coaches than the last line of defense against Johnsburg. It wasn’t until the 18th minute that Britten faced her first and only shot, and after Santucci replaced Britten with Przybylski at the half, she too faced only one shot, which came more than halfway through the second. “I just make sure to yell and talk to the team throughout and help get them in the right place” Britten said. “It’s encouraging for me to be talking and it helps me to stay in the game.”

BOYS BASKETBALL

KYLIE DENNISON Jacobs, sr. Dennison, a University of Iowa recruit, put her talents on display Monday against Woodstock as she scored two goals and added two assists, all in the first half, in a 6-0 win over the Blue Streaks. She scored another goal in a win over Grayslake North on April 4. “She is the most competitive player I have coached in five years,” Jacobs coach Anthony Cappello said. “She is always one of the hardest workers out there, and it shows. She has that drive to win.”

Coaches from 2A title game punished By JIM SUHR The Associated Press ST. LOUIS – The governing body of Illinois high school athletics put two boys basketball coaches on probation and imposed other sanctions for what the group’s chief called “an ugly and embarrassing incident” during the state championship game last month. The Illinois High School Association’s action Wednesday followed its investigation of events during and after Harrisburg’s victory March 9 over Seton Academy of South Holland in the Class 2A championship, marred by what the IHSA said was questionable conduct by a player and an obscene outburst by one coach. Some of the questioned conduct followed the first-half ejection of Seton Academy’s Mark Weems Jr. after he was whistled for his second technical foul, the last for making contact with an official. In the tunnel during halftime, IHSA Executive Director Marty Hickman said Weems’ coach, Brandon Thomas, “delivered an obscenity-laced tirade in the presence of student-athletes,” then initially refused to participate with Harrisburg coach Randy Smithpeters in an effort by tournament officials to quell the situation. “When [Thomas] eventually appeared, his demeanor made it clear that he would not be a conduit for positive change,” Hickman said. “There is no place for that type of behavior in high school athletics, and no outcome of a high school sporting event warrants it.” After the game, Hickman said, Thomas snubbed offers of congratulations from the IHSA’s directors and Gov. Pat Quinn, threw the runner-up medal to an assistant, exited the court and had a verbal confrontation with a fan before being restrained by security and police from entering the stands. Hickman said Smithpeters “crossed the line early in the game with his actions toward the game officials” and should have been issued a first-half technical foul for blatantly stepping out of his coach’s box. “His behavior set a negative tone for the players and fans and contributed to a hostile environment that only grew worse during the first half,” Hickman said. The association banned Smithpeters, the school’s assistant principal, from postseason coaching next season, unless he completes a behavioral-training program. Thomas received a two-year postseason ban. Both coaches are on probation for next school year. “This was an ugly and embarrassing incident,” Hickman said in a statement, insisting that both schools and the officials “all share in the blame for the outcome.” “We also recognize that the IHSA needs to be more proactive in dealing with oncourt behavior and conveying the expectations for appropriate conduct to the players, coaches and officials participating in our events,” Hickman added. Smithpeters and Thomas did not immediately reply to telephone messages and emailed interview requests left Thursday by The Associated Press. The loss of Weems, who finished with eight points, gave Harrisburg momentum. Harrisburg, down 23-15 when Weems was tossed, took advantage and made all four technical free throws plus a layup on the inbounds pass to close the gap. They went on to build leads as big as seven points and withstood two Seton Academy runs. However, Hickman commended Seton Academy senior Kamal Shasi, who despite disappointment about the loss gathered his teammates to line up for the postgame handshake, at times physically pulling dejected teammates off the bench.

MCC BASEBALL NOTES

Jacobs grad Schmidt to join Chicago St. By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com McHenry County College first baseman Matt Schmidt plays for a program that was 35-20 last season. That win total is two more than his future team, NCAA Division I Chicago State, has won combined since the 2009 season (33). Still, when Schmidt looked at the Cougars, he saw opportunities. Schmidt, a sophomore from Jacobs, will sign his National Letter of Intent on Monday with Chicago State and join MCC shortstop Chase Matheson in the infield. Schmidt was considering D-III North Park, where he attended his first semester as a freshman, and NAIA Ashford University in Clinton, Iowa. Chicago State, in its first year under former Northern Illinois assistant Steve Joslyn, was more enticing. “Some of the coaches are from NIU, and Chase knew them when they recruited him out of high school,” Schmidt said. “I met the

coaches, and they gave same impression they gave Chase, and that’s wanting to win. I want the opportunity to help them win. I feel they’re putting us in the best position to do that.” Schmidt hit .358 with 10 doubles, four home runs and 49 RBIs last season, while winning an NJCAA Region IV Gold Glove and earning All-Illinois Skyway Collegiate Conference first-team honors. This season he is hitting .375 with six doubles, two homers and 17 RBIs for the Scots (19-4). With Schmidt going to a D-I school, three-quarters of MCC’s infield will move on to that level. Third baseman Nick Richter (Cary-Grove) will play at D-I Rider next season. “It’s a big impact to have one of your teammates at the same school,” Schmidt said. “[Matheson and I] have spent two years together, pushing each other, so there’s a big chemistry factor there.” Committed to the Scots: MCC coach Jared Wacker also announced the

commitments of two more local players for next season with the Scots. Crystal Lake South pitcher Eric Schiller and Prairie Ridge infielder Will Harvel will play at MCC next season. Schiller is a three-sport athlete for the Gators and was their leading receiver in football and leading rebounder in basketball. He is playing a prominent role on South’s starting staff this season. “The fact that Eric has been a three-sport athlete all throughout high school creates more of an opportunity for growth and development now that he can concentrate solely on baseball,” Wacker said. Harvel saw some time with Prairie Ridge last season and is starting for the Wolves this season at third base. “Will is a kid who’s really starting to come into his own and has very intriguing skills,” Wacker said. “He’s got a strong arm and some pop in his bat. I think his best days are ahead of him.”

Second gear: Jacobs (3-5) started the season 1-3 while giving up eight goals and scoring only three. But after spending some more time together outside as a team, the players are starting to trust each other more and more on the field, and it is starting to show in the in-game product. “We’ve got a new mix of about seven to eight girls that are new to varsity,” Cappello said. “It’s been fun to watch them play and grow into their roles.” Now, in a recent 2-2 stretch, the Golden Eagles have scored 10 goals while allowing seven. Cappello sees his team taking that next step, which happens to be just in time for the start of Fox Valley Conference play. “All of the kids have been accepting and coachable,” he said. “They are all learning and are trying hard to get better.” Red hot: The Huntley soccer team has been a marvel to watch this season. The Red Raiders are an area-best 7-1-1. In the first nine matches, Huntley has allowed five goals while scoring 19. The Red Raiders have posted six shutouts and have allowed more than one Kris Grabner goal only once, which came against Boylan in the Huntley Invitational championship game when they allowed three. “We know why we gave those [goals] up and how to solve them now,” Huntley coach Kris Grabner said of the Boylan game. Huntley’s defense, coupled with timely scoring from seemingly a different player each match, is the reason the Red Raiders have been so successful this season. “That’s what we want,” Grabner said of many players contributing offensively. “It’s too easy to game plan against a team when they’ve got one person that controls everything, and it’s coming from everywhere for us right now.” The Red Raiders have been a soccer powerhouse since 2007, and part of the reason comes from seeing tough matches early in the season. Grabner has been insistent upon scheduling tough opponents during the nonconference portion of the schedule in order to get his team ready for conference and postseason play. “We’ve tried to build [tough games] into the schedule,” he said. “We don’t have those 5-0, 6-0 and 7-0 wins anymore in nonconference because it wasn’t making us a better team. We’ve been working hard to improve our schedule, and we’re seeing that the tough games are getting us ready for what’s to come.”

WASHINGTON – Here’s the dilemma White Sox manager Robin Ventura faced Thursday night in the fourth inning of a close game against the Washington Nationals: Pitch to No. 3 hitter Bryce Harper with a runner on base or walk Harper and pitch instead to cleanup man Ryan Zimmerman with two aboard. Ventura chose to have righthander Dylan Axelrod intentionally walk the lefty-swinging Harper. That brought up the right-handed Zimmerman, who delivered a two-run double, breaking the game open and helping the Nationals beat the White Sox, 7-4, for a three-game sweep. “You’re rolling the dice either way,” Ventura said. “You just take your chance.” Nationals manager Davey Johnson raised an eyebrow and grinned when asked what he thought about that sequence. “I’m glad I don’t have to make those decisions,” Johnson said. Zimmerman’s modest take?

Sox at Cleveland, 6:05 p.m. today, WGN, AM-670

“I wouldn’t pitch a righty against Bryce right now, either,” he said. Ventura’s basic, two-word explanation: “Harper’s hot.” That’s certainly true, and Harper himself wasn’t surprised about the walk there, saying, “First base open. Hitting righties pretty good.” Actually, it doesn’t seem to matter who’s on the mound at the moment. The reigning NL Rookie of the Year is hitting .417 with four homers, eight RBIs and a .778 slugging percentage. His run-scoring single in the eighth gave the 20-year-old Harper at least two hits in seven of Washington’s nine games so far. “Obviously, they’re showing a lot of respect for Bryce, 10 days into the season,” Nationals starter Dan Har-

en (1-0) said after getting the win despite allowing 10 hits in five innings. “I mean, he’s special. Our lineup’s really good, though. There’s no soft spots.” With the score tied at 3 in the fourth, Haren helped himself by doubling off Axelrod (0-1) and eventually scoring on a wild pitch with two outs. The Sox then put Harper on base on purpose, but the move didn’t work: Cleanup hitter Zimmerman lined a double to right on Axelrod’s 103rd – and final – pitch of the evening. “I just didn’t want to give in. We got to 3-2 and I went with the changeup. I hadn’t thrown a changeup to a right-hander all game,” Axelrod said, “and it seemed like a good idea at the time.” That put Washington ahead 6-3, and relievers Ryan Mattheus, Tyler Clippard and Rafael Soriano made it hold up. Soriano pitched the ninth for his fifth save in six chances, and third in three days. “Well, I was tempted to go another route,” Johnson acknowledged afterward about using Soriano again, “but he hadn’t cried ‘Uncle’ for me yet.”

MLB ROUNDUP

Tigers run past Blue Jays, 11-7, in the cold The ASSOCIATED PRESS DETROIT – Miguel Cabrera set the tone in the first inning, stealing third before the opposing pitcher even started his motion. On a chilly day when the ball didn’t appear to be carrying, the Detroit Tigers kept their legs moving. Cabrera tripled and scored twice, and the Tigers knocked Josh Johnson out of the game with a five-run second inning en route to an 11-1 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday. There were no home runs on this wet day, but Detroit didn’t need any. “Miggy stealing, getting a triple – we were running around a lot today,”

catcher Alex Avila said. “Had to – it was pretty cold outside.” Avila described the weather as “miserable” – it was 35 degrees at game time, and there was a bit of rain to play through as well. It was the lowest game-time temperature for a Detroit home game since 1996, according to STATS. Doug Fister (2-0) wore short sleeves and pitched fine, allowing a run and eight hits in eight innings for Detroit. Johnson (0-1) allowed six runs and seven hits in 11/3 innings – the shortest start of his career. Orioles 3, Red Sox 2: At Boston, the Baltimore Orioles used the same formula that made them such a surprising success last season. They counted

on a strong effort from the bullpen and pulled out a one-run win. Chris Davis hit his sixth homer and Adam Jones drove in two runs, including a tiebreaking double, to lead Baltimore past Boston. After going 29-9 in one-run games last season, the Orioles improved to 1-3 this year. “It was just a matter of time before that one-run stuff,” Jones said. “We’ve got the kind of bullpen that can shut down any type of lineup any night. We’ve got the majority of the same team. I know those guys down there, when that number’s called, they want to come in and get the job done and have done a pretty good job of it.”

Next for the Sox

CHICAGO – The Cubs’ defense finished the 2012 season well. Now they find themselves leading the majors in errors (10) after committing two errors during Thursday’s 7-6 loss to the Giants. Shortstop Starlin Castro’s fielding error in the fourth inning was his third error in nine games, and his miscue quickly turned a 5-0 lead into a one-run ballgame that the Cubs eventually Starlin squandered. Castro Castro’s error was especially frustrating because he misplayed a ground ball hit by Giants starting pitcher Ryan Vogelsong. He went to quickly field the ball and toss it to second base for the force out to end the inning, except it skipped into center field to score a run. “I feel really bad because it’s one of the plays you have to make,” Castro said. “It’s a routine play. It’s the pitcher running. Those things can’t happen because you know the pitcher’s running and you need to wait for the ball. … I tried to be too quick. “It’s really frustrating. It’s a routine play. That’s not supposed to happen.” Feldman’s disappointing start: Starting pitcher Scott Feldman’s defensive effort against the Giants rankled manager Dale Sveum. Lasting only 41/3 innings en route to his second loss in as many starts was bad enough, Feldman failed to field his position. He picked up an error in the first inning when he dropped a toss from first baseman Anthony Rizzo on the first play of the game because he got to the base late. A delayed break to first cost him again in the Giants’ four-run fourth when second baseman Brent Lillibridge held off throwing to first. “We’re going to have to get him out early to start working on it because that ain’t acceptable,” Sveum said. In two starts this season, Feldman (0-2) has allowed six earned runs in nine total innings. Four unearned runs scored Thursday. “The offense came out and threw five [runs] up there quick for me, and I would have loved to keep going and put some zeroes up there,” Feldman said. Barney ready for rehab: Second baseman Darwin Barney is anxious to return to the Cubs’ lineup. He won’t have to wait much longer. Barney (cut on left knee) is scheduled to play three games at Triple-A Iowa beginning Saturday and be activated from the 15-day disabled list Tuesday. Barney isn’t worried about the extended layoff affecting his timing at the plate. He’s been able to stand in on live pitching and take batting practice for most of his DL stint. Other than the three days he took off and rested after initially cutting hit knee March 30, Barney has been able to take swings. “It’s tough sitting around when you’re able to do some things, but that’s just kind of how it works,” Barney said. “I’m ready to get out and see some pitches.”

“There’s so many negative things that happen throughout anyone’s career and throughout a season so it is part of the maturity process to handle all that,” manager Dale Sveum said. Pitcher Jeff Samardzija wasn’t shocked Soler lost control of his emotions given the circumstances. Samardzija was a year older than Soler when he spent most of 2007 in Daytona. Like Soler, Samardzija was making good money while in the minors – he signed a five-year, $10 million contract with a $2 million signing bonus in 2007 – and it didn’t go unnoticed by opposing players, who were eager to prove Samardzija belonged on the football field, not the baseball diamond.

“There’s definitely a chip on your shoulder for other guys trying to prove themselves,” Samardzija said. “You need to understand that you’re going to get everybody’s best and you’re also going to get everybody’s worst and you need to learn how to deal with both.” Cubs players, including first baseman Anthony Rizzo, agreed that everyone makes a mistake at some point and bouncing back from it is extremely important. Missteps in the spotlight didn’t hold back Washington Nationals standout Bryce Harper despite some cringe-worthy moments. His most notable came during his first pro season in 2011 when he blew a kiss to the opposing pitcher after he hit a home run. However, that display, while disrespectful, didn’t involve a physical threat.

The Cubs must get through to Soler that his actions will not be tolerated. They can’t afford to have Soler become the next Zambrano, who was known to brandish a bat a time or two during his time wearing Cubbie blue. “We believe in Jorge as a person as well as a player,” Epstein said. “It’s our responsibility to work with him and make sure he has a better way to channel his emotions on the field and make sure something like this doesn’t happen again. That’s our responsibility and that’s his responsibility to fully embrace that.” • Meghan Montemurro covers the White Sox and Cubs for Shaw Media. Write to her at mmontemurro@shawmedia.com.

Inside the Cubs GIANTS 7, CUBS 6 Tipping point: A 5-0 lead through three innings was too good to be true for the Cubs. The defense let down Cubs starting pitcher Scott Feldman in the fourth as a Starlin Castro’s fielding error led to a four-run inning. The Giants tacked on three runs in the fifth to take the lead, and the Cubs stranded the game-tying run on second to end the game. On the mound: Feldman is still searching for his first win with the Cubs after allowing six runs (two earned) in 41/3 innings. Feldman’s most costly mistake came in the fifth when he walked Giants pitcher Ryan Vogelsong with the bases loaded to tie the game. Feldman surrendered two more runs, though he struck out Buster Posey to leave the bases loaded to prevent the Cubs from falling behind further. At the plate: Starlin Castro (2 for 5 with a double) extended his hitting streak to five games while Anthony Rizzo (1 for 5) hit a home run. But both failed to come through with the game-tying run at second in the ninth. Castro struck out swinging on a pitch out of the strike zone from Giants closer Sergio Romo, and Rizzo struck out looking to end the game. Under the radar: Rizzo’s two-run, opposite-field homer in the third inning for his third home run of the season. All three of his home runs have come on the first pitch of the at-bat. Rizzo (.188 batting average) is one of five Cubs starters hitting under .205. – Meghan Montemurro

Prisoner regretting his past Breast-feeding helps protect babies has trouble seeing the future Dear Abby: I’m a 50-year-old man who is serving time for robbery in West Virginia. Every day, I wake up acting as if I am in control and don’t have a care in the world. The truth is, I’m scared, lonely and feel totally helpless. All my life I have lived on the dark side of the street, taking for granted the values in life and the love so many people tried to give me. Two failed marriages and several relationships with good women are over because of my determination to follow an unhealthy dream, not to mention all the friends I have lost, as well. Now as I look around me, there’s no one there. No one to love and no one to love me. I never knew until now that chasing that dream would cost me everyone I ever loved. I know I have made bad choices in life. I deserve the time for the crime I committed. But am I also sentenced to a world of loneliness? Can I ever be loved again and be happy after all the wrong I have done? Is there someone out there who would be willing to give me a chance? Is it too late to start over? Abby, you have so many answers for so many people, I am just hoping you have an answer for me. – Serving Time

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips Dear Serving Time: It is never too late to start over. With penitence comes redemption. If you are willing to journey down a different path, the relationships you form along the way will be rewarding, long-lasting and mutual. Because of your criminal record, you may have to work harder to gain trust, but I promise you if you’re willing to work at it, it can be done. Dear Abby: My ex-husband, the father of our two children, was retired from the Air Force. He passed away 18 years ago. He had a full military funeral, with draped flag and all. His wife at the time was presented with the flag, which was proper. They had no children. When she passes on, would it be proper for her family to give the flag to his biological children? After all, they were with him – as was I – throughout his entire 22-year military career. When my daughter mentioned it to his wife, she got angry. – C. In Texas Dear C.: Your former husband’s wife was entitled to whatever property was left

after his demise. The flag is hers to bestow – or not. I don’t know how your daughter’s request was phrased, but the woman may have been offended by the way the question was asked. I can’t think of any other reason she would become angry. Dear Abby: I am writing regarding a letter you printed Jan. 26 from “Wants to Be Polite.” I appreciate the person’s sentiments because I, too, want to use good manners and a “You’re welcome” or “Have a nice day” is a pleasing reply to hear. What I do NOT like is a “No problem” reply to a “Thank you.” It does not seem like a sincere response to me. In fact, it sounds like I was expected to be a problem and just happened not to be one. Any thoughts on this? –

Arkansas Lady Dear Arkansas Lady: You may not like hearing it, but you had better get used to it. While “You’re welcome” may be more gracious, saying “No problem” reflects a generational shift in the vernacular. And while it may seem jarring, it is intended to be a polite response, so accept it graciously.

Dear Dr. K: What are the benefits of breast-feeding? And if I do decide to breastfeed, how will I know if my baby is getting enough milk? Dear Abby: Breast milk provides all the calories and nutrients a baby needs for the first six months of life. It also helps protect babies from illnesses such as ear infections, lung infections, vomiting and diarrhea. That’s because for the first months of life, a baby’s immune system is not fully developed. Breast milk contains antibodies the mother has made, plus several other infection-fighting substances and cells. There is some evidence breast milk also may help protect against sudden infant death syndrome, although why that might be so is not clear. Babies of mothers who breast-feed are somewhat less likely to develop obesity, cancer, heart disease and Type 1 diabetes when they become adults. Please don’t misunderstand: I’m not saying babies who bottle-feed will get these diseases, just that breast-feeding may slightly reduce the risk babies will

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff

develop these diseases when they become adults. Breast milk is easier for babies to digest than formula. Exclusively breast-feeding for the first six months may help prevent food allergies. Breast-feeding also may help with brain development and learning. There also are practical advantages to breast-feeding. It’s convenient, costs less than formula and does not need to be prepared. That being said, some women choose not to breastfeed for medical or personal reasons. Infant formula does contain all the nutrients a baby needs for normal growth. Millions of perfectly healthy babies have been raised on bottled infant formula. If you do decide to breastfeed, it can be hard to judge how much milk your baby takes in at each feeding. But there are several signs your baby is getting enough milk: • Wet diapers. Your baby should have at least one to two wet diapers for the first

two days. After that, your baby should have four to six wet diapers a day. • Stools. During the first week, your baby should have two or more stools per day. After that, the number of stools should increase to four or more a day. • Milk supply. Two to four days after delivery, your milk should “come in.” Your breasts will feel larger, firmer and warmer as they fill with milk before each feeding. They’ll get smaller and softer after your baby has nursed. • Feedings. Your baby should feed at least eight times every 24 hours. Most newborns nurse every one and a half to three hours. After feeding, your baby should seem satisfied and will probably fall asleep. • Weight. After the first week of life, your newborn should steadily gain weight. If one or more of these signs indicate your baby might not be getting enough milk, talk to your pediatrician.

Fox axes Coulter column THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Friday, April 12, 2013 • PlanitNorthwest.com/buzz

The Fox Nation website has removed a column by conservative commentator Ann Coulter because it had a reference to killing the daughter of Sen. John McCain. Fox said Thursday the column was deemed offensive. It had been posted Wednesday night. Coulter wrote about how MSNBC’s Martin Bashir suggested Republican senators wouldn’t support stronger gun control legislation until a member of their family was killed. She wrote: “Let’s start with Meghan McCain!” McCain tweeted Thursday she “couldn’t imagine living a life that seems so void of love, compassion and perspective.” Her mother, Cindy McCain, tweeted that “Ann Coulter needs to get a life!”

McCartney still richest

China pulls ‘Django Unchained’ “Django Unchained” became “Django Unscreened” on Thursday as Quentin Tarantino’s violent slave-revenge saga was pulled from Chinese theaters on its opening day, with the importer blaming an unspecified technical problem. The rare suspension order by China Film Group Corp. was confirmed by theater employees throughout China, and has led to speculation that the Hollywood film could have run afoul of Chinese censors despite weeks of promotion in the country. Calls to the importer and to China’s regulatory agency, the State Administration of Radio Film and Television, were unanswered. The China office of Sony Pictures, which released the film, refused to comment. “Django Unchained” reportedly cut some violent scenes and had already been cleared by China’s rigorous censors, who generally remove violence, sex and politically edgy content. With such an exacting system, suspension on a film’s premiere date is unusual. Tian Zaixing, general manager of the Beichen Fortune Center movie theater in the southern city of Kunming, said he could not recall any other imported film being halted on the opening day. The order from China Film Group came in a phone call around 10 a.m., he said. “We were excited about the film yesterday,” he said. “We had had high expectations for this film’s box office.” The cited technical reason might only be a ruse, said Tian, who was unable to provide an alternative explanation.

Let it be – as in billionaire. Paul McCartney remains Britain’s wealthiest musician, according to the Sunday Times Rich List. The newspaper estimated Thursday

More celeb news at PlanitNorthwest.com/buzz that the ex-Beatle shares a 680 million-pound ($1.05 billion) fortune with his third wife, Nancy Shevell, whose family owns a U.S. trucking company. McCartney has topped the musicians’ list every year since it was first compiled in 1989. Adele topped a parallel list for musicians under 30. She is judged to be worth 30 million pounds.

Broadcast companies worrying about ‘Zero TV’ homes

CUTTERS By RYAN NAKASHIMA The Associated Press

ome people have had it with TV. They’ve had enough of the 100-plus channel universe. They don’t like timing their lives around network show schedules. They’re tired of $100-plus monthly bills. A growing number of them have stopped paying for cable and satellite TV service, and don’t even use an antenna to get free signals over the air. These people are watching shows and movies on the Internet, sometimes via cellphone connections. Last month, the Nielsen Co. started labeling people in this group “Zero TV” households, because they fall outside the traditional definition of a TV home. There are 5 million of these residences in the U.S., up from 2 million in 2007. Winning back the Zero TV crowd will be one of the many issues broadcasters discuss at their national meeting, called the NAB Show, taking place this week in Las Vegas.

While show creators and networks make money from this group’s viewing habits through deals with online video providers and from advertising on their own websites and apps, broadcasters only get paid when they relay such programming in traditional ways. Unless broadcasters can adapt to modern platforms, their revenue from Zero TV viewers will be zero. “Getting broadcast programing on all the gizmos and gadgets – like tablets, the backseats of cars, and laptops – is hugely important,” says Dennis Wharton, a spokesman for the National Association of Broadcasters. Although Wharton says more than 130 TV stations in the U.S. are broadcasting live TV signals to mobile devices, few people have the tools to receive them. Most cellphones require an add-on device known as a dongle, but these gadgets are just starting to be sold. Among this elusive group of consumers is Jeremy Carsen Young, a graphic designer, who is done with traditional TV. Young has a working antenna sitting unplugged on his back porch in Roanoke, Va., and he refuses to put it on the roof. “I don’t think we’d use it enough to justify having a big eyesore on the house,” the 30-year-old says. Online video subscriptions from Netflix Inc. and Amazon.com Inc. – which cost less than $15 a month combined – have given him and his partner plenty to watch. They take in back episodes of AMC’s “The Walk-

“

ing Dead” and The CW’s “Supernatural,” and they don’t need more, he says. He doesn’t mind waiting as long as a year for the current season’s episodes to appear on streaming services, even if his friends accidently blurt out spoilers in the meantime. With regular television, he might have missed the latest developments, anyway. “By the time it gets to me to watch, I’ve kind of forgotten about that,” he says. For the first time, TV ratings giant Nielsen took a close look at this category of viewer in its quarterly video report released in March. It plans to measure their viewing

of new TV shows starting this fall, with an eye toward incorporating the results in the formula used to calculate ad rates. “Our commitment is to being able to measure the content wherever it is,” says Dounia Turrill, Nielsen’s senior vice president of insights. The Zero TV segment is increasingly important, because the number of people signing up for traditional TV service has slowed to a standstill in the U.S. Last year, the cable, satellite and telecom providers added just 46,000 video customers collectively, according to research firm SNL Kagan. That is tiny when compared with the 974,000 new households created last year. While it’s still 100.4 million homes, or 84.7 percent of all households, it’s down from the peak of 87.3 percent in early 2010. Nielsen’s study suggests this new group may have left traditional TV for good. While three-quarters actually have a physical TV set, only 18 percent are interested in hooking it up through a traditional pay TV subscription. Zero TVers tend to be younger, single and without children. Nielsen’s senior vice president of insights, Dounia Turrill, says part of the new monitoring regime is meant to help determine whether they’ll change their behavior over time. “As these homes change life stage, what will happen to them?”

Boseman portrays Robinson in a film worthy of a legend By DAVID MALITZ The Washington Post It’s never easy for an actor to play a real-life character, especially one of recent vintage. But Chadwick Boseman isn’t just contending with the memories of older sports fans when he plays Jackie Robinson, major league baseball’s first African American player. By appearing in “42,” which opens Friday, Boseman is competing directly against the historical icon, who played himself in “The Jackie Robinson Story” in 1950. Boseman is 36, which means he was born about five years after Robinson’s 1972 death. And, he admits, he’s not a stalwart baseball follower. But he brought something that about 25 other actors seriously considered for the role did not. “He came in and said, ‘You’re either going to like me or not. And we’re going to know in five minutes’ ,” director Brian Helgeland recounted during a question-and-answer session at the White House recently. It was a winning gambit. “He had to play one of the bravest men who ever lived,” Helgeland noted. “So I thought that he came in brave was a great indication.” Boseman recently visited Washington, where he graduated from Howard University with a BFA in directing in 2000, to discuss “42,” which got its name from Robinson’s uniform number. It’s the goateed actor’s first big-screen leading role, playing against Harrison Ford in a movie

Confidential” and “Mystic River.” Sitting in a Georgetown hotel suite in black slacks and a blue sweater, Boseman flashed a wide smile and laughed easily and often. But he also was guarded, keeping his arms crossed for much of the interview. Like Robinson himself, Boseman seemed acutely conscious of the role he’s playing, both in and out of the spotlight. Of “The Jackie Robinson Story,” Boseman said, it’s “the Hollywood version of the story. . . . It’s the real guy. He’s playing the real story. But you don’t get all of it.” When he joined the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947, Robinson was subjected to furious racist abuse. But that’s not what Boseman said was missing from the biopic. “The [1950] movie begins by saying, ‘All he ever wanted to do was play baseball.’ And it’s not true,” Boseman said. “Baseball was probably his fourth or fifth best sport. He was better at track and field, triple jump and long jump. He was definitely better in football and basketball. And

he even played tennis. He was just a phenomenal athlete altogether. Baseball just happened to be the thing he was able to actualize his skill in. “I think he had greatness in him that this country was not necessarily ready to accept. That old movie doesn’t really tell that story.” The actor learned more about the baseball player from meeting Robinson’s wife, Rachel. “I got a sense of their relationship, and who he was,” Boseman said. “A lot of it was what she wouldn’t say. What she wouldn’t talk about. The way she would gaze off at certain point, and you could tell what was emotionally important for her.” In addition to the actor’s performance, Rachel Robinson also influenced the script, Helgeland said. He had written a scene in which Jackie benefits from a balk and had the batter’s wife ask what happened. “In what world do you think I don’t know what a balk is?” Helgeland recalled her asking him. “I said it’s a very hard thing to explain and I need someone to explain it to the audience. And she said, ‘Well, have someone else explain it. Don’t let it be me.’ “ And so, in the finished movie, a child asks about the balk. On the field in the early days, Jackie Robinson couldn’t react to outrageous heckling, in part because of his own dignity but also so as not to undermine the man who had risked hiring him, Dodgers General Manager Branch Rickey, played in the movie by Ford.

A reboot for the National Geographic Channel By DAVID BAUDER The Associated Press David Lyle, CEO of the National Geographic Channel, has seen enough of the letters to know how they go. The writer is typically a longtime reader of the magazine, who perhaps recalls the times he leafed through its glossy pages while perched on grandpa’s knee. “The second paragraph,” he said, “would always be, ‘So you can imagine my disappointment when ...’” Fill in the blank. Maybe the person saw the channel’s documentary about escort services, or a show about a man who sculpts with a chain saw. Perhaps it was a show about gypsies, UFO hunters or people stocking up for the imminent end of the world. Maybe more letters will come after this Sunday, when narrator Rob Lowe starts a nostalgic three-day look at the 1980s. Every day Lyle and his executive team face the challenge of building a successful network in the era of Honey Boo Boo and “Duck Dynasty” without damaging a National Geographic brand that has stood for quality since the magazine was first published in 1888. The first three months of 2013 represented the network’s best quarter since its launch in 2001. The National Geographic Channel averaged 554,000 viewers in prime time, propelled by “Doomsday Preppers,” the “Wicked Tuna” series about fishermen in Gloucester, Mass., and a movie dramatization of Bill O’Reilly’s book, “Killing Lincoln.” “We have a lot to grow on,” Lyle said. “We have just scratched the surface with the types of shows and the types of people and ideas we can explore.” Toward the end of 2011, Lyle appointed Howard Owens, a founder of Reveille Productions, as the network’s president and brought on Courteney Monroe from HBO as chief marketer. The station is a joint venture between National Geographic and the Fox cable networks. Before its makeover, NatGeo was a musty network that aired documentaries with “voice of God” narrators and few reasons for people to watch regularly, Lyle said. The “Great Migrations” miniseries about animal treks in 2010 had spectacular nature photography but wasn’t the television event that executives hoped for. “Just because we’re able to say ‘five years in the making’ doesn’t mean the audience

• BOSEMAN Continued from page D1 Boseman said he used acting techniques he learned in college to play the role, but not to understand the outlook of the first black major leaguer. “I probably drew from other things that maybe I didn’t experience at Howard because it was predominantly black,” he said. To approximate Robinson’s experience, Boseman isolated himself from certain actors, notably the one who plays Philadelphia Phillies Manager Ben Chapman, who tries to rattle the Dodgers rookie with a torrent of racial invective. “I didn’t talk to Alan Tudyk,” Boseman said. “If you’ve seen that scene, you know that I could not have a cordial relationship with him. . . . I told him when I met him, ‘I’m not going to talk to you

This publicity image released by the National Geographic Channel shows four of the captains from the series, “Wicked Tuna,” posing on a pier in Gloucester, Mass. The channel faces the challenge of trying to build a successful network in the era of Honey Boo-Boo and “Duck Dynasty” without damaging a National Geographic brand that has stood for quality since the magazine was first published in 1888. gives a toss,” he said. The new team’s mandate was to make the channel contemporary and “add the big E – entertainment” without alienating people, he said. Financial success for many cable networks now requires developing characters and series that compel viewer loyalty. The History channel was once the place for old men to watch war movies. Now it’s the home of “Pawn Stars,” “American Pickers” and the just-concluded miniseries on the Bible. Its turnaround provided a blueprint for some of the Discovery networks and A&E, and now National Geographic. Owens, whose former production company was behind shows like “The Biggest Loser” and “Master Chef,” was told to take some swings quickly. Not all connected, like last year’s “Chasing UFOs,” about alien hunters, or “American Gypsies.” The experience taught a few lessons, particularly with the series “American Gypsies.” Viewers in focus groups told National Geographic the characters were obnoxious and their situations felt cheesy and manufactured. “People turn to National Geographic to be captivated, to be taken away and maybe to learn something,” Owens said. “This was brash entertainment for entertainment’s sake, and that didn’t work

for us.” That knowledge enabled executives to hone in on where the traditional National Geographic brand and a new National Geographic Channel could intersect. They feel people look to National Geographic for access to something they wouldn’t normally see, often someplace compelling visually. One of the reasons that “Wicked Tuna” works – aside from its great title – is that the characters are doing what they normally do, “and our cameras happen to be there catching it,” Owens said. Another popular series is “Inside Combat Rescue,” which follows military rescue units in Afghanistan. While odd subcultures are often the focus of series, Owens said the network is looking to celebrate them, not make fun of them. That is not how a Montana religious sect felt after they let cameras in to film “American Colony: Meet the Hutterites,” which aired last year. They complained the series mocked and degraded them. National Geographic defended the series, and may be wading into similar choppy waters next month with the debut of “Polygamy Town,” about an Arizona community with men who have multiple wives. There clearly have been culture clashes between supporters of the National Geo-

for the rest of the movie.’ And he understood that.” The actor already had bonded with the other actors, however, during “spring training” in Los Angeles, where the actors who were to portray baseball players studied the fundamentals for several months. “I had to practice with these other guys from the middle of January to May,” Boseman said. “And I wanted to see what it felt like to be on a team.” Boseman observed film of Robinson to learn how he moved on the field. But his principal trainer, Dennis Reitz, “wasn’t really concerned with what plays we had to do in the movie. In most cases, I think they’d say, ‘You have to do this exact play.’ But he was adamant that you need to be prepared for anything.” Working on “42,” Boseman came to appreciate what he calls the “theatricality” of

sports, and relished a scene he played with Ford in the tunnel leading to the field. “It was one of the most intimate moments we had in the movie,” he recalled. “The camera crew is at the end of the tunnel. . . . People began to gather around the seats above the tunnel to listen to each take. When we would finish and I would come out, they would applaud. Every time. It was like a play. It was not like we were doing a film anymore.” That feeling of closeness is one of the things Boseman likes best about “42.” He applauded Helgeland for “not shooting from the stadium. He’s shooting it from inside the game. On the bases. At eye level. I think he wanted you to get inside this moment.” “The movie is epic,” Boseman said, “but it’s also subtle.” Not unlike the character he plays.

graphic Society, the scientific and educational institution that publishes the magazine and partly owns the channel, and the National Geographic Channel. “The channel has become to National Geographic what the Frankenstein monster became to Dr. Frankenstein,” said Alan Mairson, a former writer and editor at the National Geographic magazine. He writes a blog, societymatters.org, that claims the channel hurts the society’s reputation but is tolerated because of the money it brings

in. Several people have told him they gave up their society membership because of something on the channel. One image unlikely to be seen in society educational material: a picture of a woman holding a leash attached to a dog collar around the neck of another woman, which promotes the network’s series “Taboo.” It’s described as being about behaviors accepted in some cultures but not in others. The society’s outgoing CEO, John Fahey, said some of the channel’s past pro-

gramming choices didn’t help the brand, primarily because there was an attempt to emulate what other networks were doing. “The channel has clearly decided that they wanted to make sure the shows are smarter shows and reflect the brand,” Fahey said. “We’re not quite there yet, but we are making good progress.” Protecting the brand is important, but so is attracting viewers. Programmers can’t look down their noses at people, he said. Fahey praised the upcoming “Brain Games,” which premieres April 22 and puts the brain through a series of experiments and optical illusions. The returning series “Locked up Abroad” on April 17 tells the story of former Vietnam War soldier Ernie Brace, a friend of John McCain who was held captive for nearly eight years. Two series in May go north as the weather heats up. “Life Below Zero” heads to one of nonfiction TV’s favorite locations, Alaska, to explore the lives of people who live on their own in remote corners of the state. “Ultimate Survival Alaska” follows a group of outdoorsmen put to the test. In an effort to find its own indelible characters, the channel will premiere “The Legend of Mick Dodge” in the fall. It follows a man who lives in the wilderness outside of Seattle, described by Owens as “Forrest Gump meets Middle-earth.” The network’s approach is to be risk-takers. Owens said that’s been a part of the National Geographic DNA for over a hundred years. “We’re running toward smart,” Lyle said, “when a lot of people aren’t.”

“Disconnect”

HHH

STARRING: Jason Bateman, Hope Davis, Alexander Skarsgård, Jonah Bobo, Paula Patton PLOT: A drama centered on a group of people searching for human connections in today’s wired world. RATED: R for sexual content, some graphic nudity, language, violence and drug use – some involving teens TIME: 1 hour, 56 minutes

By DAVID ROONEY The Hollywood Reporter It’s a given at multiplexes these days that despite switch-off-your-cell-phone announcements and the occasional grumbling protest, whatever’s onscreen will have to compete with tiny pockets of light from audience members unable to stay off their handhelds. Watching those glow patches come and go during “Disconnect” reinforces the film’s position on how desensitized we’ve become to these technological intrusions. Not that Henry-Alex Rubin’s schematic multi-strand drama is at all shy about articulating its themes. Directing his first narrative feature, documentarymaker Rubin (“Murderball”) has assembled a solid cast and weaves together the three interconnected stories of Andrew Stern’s original screenplay with elegance and efficiency. But this is a film that voices its warning about the hazards of a wired existence with solemn self-importance. It’s also quite late in the day to be pointing out we’re so plugged into our devices we often fail to see or hear the people closest to us. That’s not to say “Disconnect” is without powerful scenes, and a thread about the heedless consequences of cyber pranks among kids on social network sites prob-

ably stands to reach more adolescents than nonfiction treatments of bullying. Nina (Andrea Riseborough) is a TV news reporter investigating porn chat sites that recruit underage teens, many of them runaways. She establishes a connection online with Kyle (Max Thieriot), at first in private chats and then cam-to-cam. They eventually meet, and she convinces him to participate in an exposé, promising to keep his identity concealed. But when the story is picked up by CNN, representing a huge professional coup for ambitious Nina, it lands on the FBI’s radar, placing her under pressure to betray her source. The network’s legal counsel is Rich Boyd (Jason Bateman), who has more urgent issues with his troubled 15-year-old son Ben (Jonah Bobo). An aspiring musician and friendless high school loner, Ben is targeted for humiliation by skater buddies Jason (Colin Ford) and Frye (Aviad Bernstein), who invent a female handle and begin messaging him. They start by admiring his music and then take it sexual, sending a naked photo and requesting he do the same. Jason’s father, Mike, (Frank Grillo) is a widowed former cop from the computer crimes unit, now working as a private investigator. Victims of credit

card fraud, ex-Marine Derek (Alexander Skarsgard) and his wife Cindy (Paula Patton) hire Mike when the police prove unhelpful and the couple’s savings and assets are taken. Retracing Cindy’s participation in an online grief support group following the death of their baby, Mike believes he has found the identity thief. But obtaining concrete evidence proves too slow for Derek, who confronts the suspect (Michael Nyqvist). The ways in which technology has polluted communication for these people are laid out with exacting thoroughness in Stern’s script. Rich is constantly consumed by work calls and emails at home; Ben is so plugged into a headset or a laptop he rarely speaks; Cindy shares secrets about her marriage with a screen moniker. The thematic points are made clearly, with wellsustained tension and no shortage of dramatic impact. It’s just that it’s all a bit obvious, becoming selfconsciously operatic when Rubin crosscuts among the slow-mo violence that brings each story to its climax. And the ensuing moral lessons and re-established human connections are a bit too neat and tidy. There are compelling performances to bolster the material, however, including from some of the young cast members. Thieriot ably straddles the lines within Kyle. Like his flirty online persona, appearing in just underwear and tattoos, he has learned to use sex and cockiness to get by, but shows vulnerability when he starts to believe there might be another way forward in life. Ford’s Jason early on reveals flickers of a conscience to distinguish him from more callous Frye. Looking like a young Paul Dano, Bobo makes Ben

Alexander Skarsgård (left) and Paula Patton star in “Disconnect.” a heartrendingly fragile outsider, and as the popular sister who beats herself up about ignoring his pain, Haley Ramm has affecting moments. Standout among the bigger names is Bateman, whose obsessive determination to find the trigger for Ben’s desperation drives the developments of that strand. Hope Davis is given too little to do as Rich’s wife, concerned only about her son’s health and not with assigning guilt. Riseborough is stuck with a character that becomes less credible as her interaction with Kyle continues after the news report. But Grillo is a strong presence, and Skarsgard, considerably drabbed down from his “True Blood” look, conveys the simmering anger of an Iraqi vet reduced to being a thankless paper-pusher. He and Patton

effectively draw the lines that isolate them in their grief and then the slow thaw as they face a fresh crisis together. In a curious bit of casting, fashion designer Marc Jacobs registers convincingly in his couple of scenes as Harvey, the sleazy surrogate parent of the sex-cam models, luring them off the street with the promise of shelter and income.

While the city locations are somewhat anonymously anyplace, cinematographer Ken Seng gives the film a suitably cold, almost grim look, echoed in Max Richter’s mainly electronic score. Extreme closeups and onscreen text exchanges are used skillfully to engage us in the cyber dialogue, and editors Lee Percy and Kevin Tent fluidly keep each of the stories in equal play.

“To The Wonder”

HHH

STARRING: Ben Affleck, Olga Kurylenko, Rachel McAdams PLOT: After visiting Mont Saint-Michel, Marina and Neil come to Oklahoma, where problems arise. Marina meets a priest and fellow exile, who is struggling with his vocation, while Neil renews his ties with a childhood friend, Jane RATED: R for some sexuality and nudity TIME: 1 hour, 53 minutes By JAKE COYLE The Associated Press “Wonder” has always been the word with Terrence Malick. He might be the most sought-after, high-budget art-house filmmaker on the planet, a director whose talent for cinematic poetry and freeform improvisation gives him virtually the pick of Hollywood’s A-list litter. But for all his voice-over philosophizing, his movies are completely guileless. He makes simple films beautifully, with a childlike sense of wonder. Even if his films fail to leave you elated, you can’t help but feel cleansed by their innocent purity. A new Malick masterwork is always an event, but as the releases have grown more commonplace, so, too has the feeling that his movie world – so separate from others – has developed its own systematic clichés. There may be, it turns out, only so much inner-monologue questioning about love and nature from a barefoot, long-haired lass in the sun-lit grass that we can take. Such has been the reception to Malick’s latest, “To the Wonder,” a film that more than any other of the director’s, distills his distinctive approach. There’s hardly any dialogue at all, just the story of a French-speaking Ukrainian single mother, Marina (Olga Kurylenko), and her up-and-down romance with Neil (Ben Affleck). He’s a kind of sample-taking environmental scientist of polluted blue-collar areas who brings Marina and her 10-year-old daughter, Tatiana (Tatiana Chiline), from vibrant, sundrenched Paris to his home in an austere suburban development in Oklahoma. Dichotomy has always been the real narrative propellant for Malick (war and peace in “The Thin Red Line”; the disciplinarian father and graceful mother of “The Tree of Life”) and that’s true here. The particular events and ruptures in Neil and Marina’s relationship aren’t closely followed, only the familiar tidal swells of love and loneliness. During a separation, a local former flame (Rachel McAdams) also drifts in, forming an evanescent triangle. What this is, then, is a straightforward, abstractly rendered rumination on love, mostly from Marina’s perspective. “What is this love that loves us?” she wonders. The state of bliss she finds with Neil – on a train to Paris, on the shores of Mont Saint-Michel, on the plains of Oklahoma – is inevitably, mysteriously fleeting. She ponders, in French: “Where are we when we’re there?” ‘’Why doesn’t it last?” The film creates other questions, too, none more than: Ben Affleck can speak French?? But the actor’s character hardly talks at all, and he moves hulkingly through the film, mostly

• TV Continued from page D1 Cynthia Phelps, a 43-yearold maker of mental health apps in San Antonio, Texas, says there’s nothing that will bring her back to traditional TV. She’s watched TV in the past, of course, but for most of the past 10 years she’s done without it. She finds a lot of programs online to watch on her laptop for free – like the TED talks educational series – and every few months she gets together with friends to watch older TV shows on DVD, usually “something totally geeky,” like NBC’s “Chuck.” The 24-hour news channels make her anxious or depressed, and buzz about the latest hot TV shows like “Mad Men” doesn’t make her feel like she’s missing out. She didn’t know who the Kardashian family was until she looked them up a few years ago. “I feel absolutely no social pressure to keep up with the Joneses in that respect,” she says. For Phelps, it’s less about saving money than choice. She says she’d rather spend her time productively and not get “sucked into” shows she’ll regret later. “I don’t want someone else dictating the media I get every day,” she says. “I want

to be in charge of it. When I have a TV, I’m less in control of that.” The TV industry has a host of buzz words to describe these nontraditionalist viewers. There are “cordcutters,” who stop paying for TV completely, and make do with online video and sometimes an antenna. There are “cord-shavers,” who reduce the number of channels they subscribe to, or the number of rooms pay TV is in, to save money. Then there are the “cordnevers,” young people who move out on their own and never set up a landline phone connection or a TV subscription. They usually make do with a broadband Internet connection, a computer, a cellphone and possibly a TV set that is not hooked up the traditional way. That’s the label given to the group by Richard Schneider, the president and founder of the online retailer Antennas Direct. The site is doing great business selling antennas capable of accepting free digital signals since the nation’s transition to digital over-the-air broadcasts in 2009, and is on pace to sell nearly 600,000 units this year, up from a few dozen when it started in 2003. While the “cord-nevers” are a target market for him, the category is also troubling. More people are raised with the power of the

Ben Affleck and Olga Kurylenko star in “To the Wonder.” leaving the meditations to Marina. Malick gives his actors wide berth to explore their characters, shaping his films largely in editing. (Performances by Rachel Weisz, Michael Sheen and others didn’t make it into the final cut, a not unusual fate for members of a Malick cast.) But the performances in “To the Wonder” aren’t quite up to the task. Affleck is sensitive but zombie-like. Kurylenko, a gorgeous former model who played a Bond girl in “Quantum of Solace,” is a captivating, lithe presence, but her playful improvising veers too close to precious (a danger for any Malick player). Perhaps their characters were too thinly scripted by Malick, if “scripted” is even a relevant word. Whereas “The Tree of Life” put its characters in a cosmic, mythical context (oh, yes, there were dinosaurs), “To the Wonder” places its characters’ deliberations on love in the spiritual realm. Javier Bardem plays a Catholic priest undergoing a crisis of faith. He meanders morosely among the town’s poor and imprisoned in what feels like – compared to the lengthy, dreamy intimacy with the likes of Kurylenko, McAdams and Affleck – token slumming with less physically blessed humanity. Internet in their pocket, and don’t know or care that you can pull TV signals from the air for free. “They’re more aware of Netflix than they’re aware over-the-air is even available,” Schneider says. That brings us to truck driver James Weitze. The 31-year-old satisfies his video fix with an iPhone. He often sleeps in his truck, and has no apartment. To be sure, he’s an extreme case who doesn’t fit into Nielsen’s definition of a household in the first place. But he’s watching Netflix enough to keep up with shows like “Weeds,” “30 Rock,” ‘’Arrested Development,” “Breaking Bad,” “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” and “Sons of Anarchy.” He’s not opposed to TV per se, and misses some ESPN sports programs like the “X Games.” But he’s so divorced from the traditional TV ecosystem it could be hard to go back. It’s become easier for him to navigate his smartphone than to figure out how to use a TV set-top box and the button-laden remote control. “I’m pretty tech savvy, but the TV industry with the cable and the television and the boxes, you don’t know how to use their equipment,” he says. “I try to go over to my grandma’s place and teach her how to do it. I can’t even figure it out myself.”

When the papal concave gets a look at the regal Bardem robed in vestments, they may wonder if perhaps they missed the boat. His priest is a tangential character with little connecting him to the couple, but his role is to, by association, bond their earthly affection with God’s love. One wide-eyed bit character exclaims to him at a window: “I’m feeling not just the natural light. That’s the spiritual light!” Cinema is a cathedral for Malick, and in it, light is heavenly. Much of the film, with cinematography by Emmanuel Lubezki, was shot in the golden glow of “magic hour.” You will seldom see a more majestically shot movie, one both impressionistic and detailed, sensual and grounded. Even if other elements of the film are lacking, the sheer inventiveness and variety of the contrasting images keeps you riveted. “To the Wonder” isn’t the finest Malick film. But if it’s a failure, it’s the best kind. It strives, in a superficial medium, to communicate something universal about our inner nature. It seeks beauty in the world and finds it everywhere, from the shores of Normandy to the grocery store aisles of Oklahoma. It may be easy to laugh at, but wherever the love that loves us is, it’s in this movie.

LOCAL SHOWTIMES

“Admission” HHH STARRING: Tina Fey, Paul Rudd, Lily Tomlin, Nat Wolff PLOT: A tightly wound Princeton University admissions officer (Fey) visits a rustic alternative high school run by Rudd. He introduces her to the school’s top student (Wolff), who wants to attend Princeton. Rudd then drops the bombshell that the boy is the son Fey gave up for adoption 17 years earlier. RATING: PG-13 for language and some sexual material TIME: 1 hour, 57 minutes VERDICT: Despite the advertising selling this as a romantic comedy, it is as much a drama as a comedy with an ending as bitter as it is sweet. The focus is not so much on the romance between Fey and Rudd as it is on Fey’s midlife crisis and the conflict with her feminist mother played by Lily Tomlin. Director Paul Weitz waits a long while before allowing the story to find its voice as a drama, but Fey and Rudd are likeable and they make the project work despite its flaws. – Jeffrey Westhoff,

“The Call” H½ STARRING: Halle Berry, Evie Thompson, Abigail Breslin PLOT: When veteran 911 operator Jordan Turner receives a call from a girl who has just been abducted, she soon realizes that she must confront a killer from her past in order to save the girl’s life. RATING: R for violence, disturbing content and some language TIME: 1 hour, 35 minutes VERDICT: “The Call” dials up a shallow thrill ride, but one efficiently peppered with your typical “don’t go in there!” moments. But what once was usual for Hollywood – reliable, popcorn-eating genre frights – isn’t so much anymore. “The Call” is a rudimentary, almost old-fashioned 90-minute escape that manages to achieve its low ambitions. – Jake Coyle,

“The Croods” HH½ STARRING: The voices of Nicolas Cage, Ryan Reynolds, Emma Stone and Catherine Keener PLOT: The world’s first prehistoric family goes on a road trip to an uncharted and fantastic world. RATING: PG for some scary action TIME: 1 hour, 32 minutes VERDICT: Cavemen – they’re just like us! – or so “The Croods” seems to be saying with its familiar mix of generational clashes, coming-of-age milestones and generally relatable laughs. The animated adventure features a strong, star-studded cast and dazzles visually in wondrously colorful, vibrant 3-D, but the script doesn’t pop off the screen quite so effectively. The simplistic message here is: Trying new things is good. It’s a useful notion for kids in the crowd to chew on, but their older companions may be longing for something more substantive. Still, “The Croods” is both brisk and beautiful, and should be sufficiently entertaining for family audiences for whom few such options exist these days. And it might be especially resonant with young female viewers, with a strong, resourceful teenage girl at its center named Eep (voiced by Emma Stone in her usual charming rasp). It’s the prehistoric era, and while the rest of Eep’s family prefers the comforting safety of hiding fearfully inside a cave, with only sporadic outings for group hunts, she longs to see what’s outside those stone walls. Her dad, Grug (Cage), is especially protective, neurotically worrying about every possible unknown and urging the same sort of apprehension in everyone else. But everything changes when Eep escapes and meets a guy named Guy (Reynolds). – Christy Lemire,

“Evil Dead” HHH STARRING: Jane Levy, Shiloh Fernandez, Jessica Lucas PLOT: Five friends head to a remote cabin, where the discovery of a Book of the Dead leads them to unwittingly summon up demons living in the nearby woods. The evil presence possesses them until only one is left to fight for survival. RATING: R for strong bloody violence and gore, some sexual content and language TIME: 1 hour, 31 minutes VERDICT: True to the essence of its predecessor but reinventing some particulars (precedent is set by Raimi’s “Evil Dead II,” which practically remade the story from

RATINGS

HHHH - Excellent HHH - Recommended HH - Not recommended H - Awful scratch), this film retains the five-youths-in-a-cabin premise, but renames the characters and changes some relationships to ensure we don’t expect a beatby-beat remake. That’s good news for Shiloh Fernandez, who has none of the humor or panache of Campbell – Fernandez’s David fills the slot of Campbell’s Ash, in that he’s the brother of the first young woman to be possessed by evil forces (Jane Levy’s Mia), but David is, wisely, never offered as an Ash-like hero. And while the original had a conventional slasher-flick setup – a co-ed spring break trip to the woods – this one offers more justification for the remote setting and the characters’ reluctance to leave when things start to go south. Pucci is this “Evil Dead’s” most charismatic cast member, but Alvarez and his co-writer Rodo Sayagues give him only one wisecrack in the whole film. Jokes are almost non-existent here; Alvarez comes closest to trying to make us laugh (and it works) when his camera casually shows us a prop – a shotgun, a chain saw – whose importance we remember from Raimi’s trilogy. Instead, he and his crack effects team work to make our stomachs turn. From the initial attack on Mia – the infamous “tree rape” scene – to the literal rainstorm of blood that accompanies the climax, “Evil Dead” delivers satisfyingly disgusting effects that serve an ever-accelerating action pace. – John DeFore, The

Hollywood Reporter.

“42” HHH STARRING: Chadwick Boseman, Harrison Ford, Christopher Meloni, Nicole Beharie PLOT: Jackie Robinson (Boseman) breaks the race barrier in Major League baseball when general manger Branch Rickey (Ford) puts him on the Brooklyn Dodgers’ roster. Robinson endures racism from the stands and in his own clubhouse during his historic rookie season. RATING: PG-13 for thematic elements including language TIME: 2 hours, 1 minute VERDICT: Writer-director Brian Helgeland (who won an Oscar for his “L.A. Confidential” script) tells Jackie Robinson’s incredible story in a fast-paced and entertaining style, even if Helgeland’s history lessons are aimed at a middle-school level. Adults may appreciate the sentiment but get antsy waiting for material pitched at them. Screen newcomer Boseman is phenomenal as Robinson, capturing the ballplayer’s tortured soul as well as his prowess on the field. Ford turns himself into a character actor and clearly enjoys himself, even though he does ham it up a bit. Worth seeing, but it wears its nobility too conspicuously. – Jeffrey Westhoff,

“G.I. Joe: Retaliation” H½ STARRING: Dwayne Johnson, D.J. Cotrona, Adrianne Palicki, Channing Tatum PLOT: After the G.I. Joe team is betrayed and ambushed on a mission to Pakistan, the three survivors (Johnson, Cotrona and Palicki) vow to find the Cobra villains responsible and stop their plan for world domination. RATING: PG-13 for intense sequences of combat violence, brief sensuality, language and martial arts action TIME: 1 hour, 39 minutes VERDICT: “Retaliation” is a sequel that doesn’t want to be a sequel. It jettisons the original movie’s comic book sensibilities and abandons almost its entire cast but brings back its star (Tatum)

only to kill him off in the first act. With its sometimes brutal tone, the sequel basically transitions the concept of G.I. Joe from a team of military heroes to another action franchise for Johnson, who might as well go back to calling himself The Rock. One other Joe, the silent ninja Snake Eyes (Ray Park) does return in a convoluted subplot that plays like another, slightly better, movie. Near the end the villains destroy a major city in a show of force, and it is appalling that none of the good guys bats an eye over what would rank as one of the greatest disasters in world history. Apparently, if it happens in a country that isn’t America, it doesn’t count. – Jeffrey Westhoff,

“A Good Day To Die Hard” H STARRING: Bruce Willis, Jai Courtney, Sebastian Koch and Mary Elizabeth Winstead PLOT: John McClane travels to Russia to help out his seemingly wayward son, Jack, only to discover Jack is a CIA operative working to prevent a nuclear-weapons heist, causing the father and son to team up against underworld forces. RATING: R for violence and language TIME: 1 hour, 37 minutes VERDICT: It’s supposed to be a parody of itself, right? That’s the only way to explain this ridiculously over-the-top, repetitively numbing fifth film in the “Die Hard” franchise. John McClane used to be a cowboy. Now, he’s a cartoon character – specifically, Wile E. Coyote, given how many times he should be seriously injured and/ or killed in this movie. The most he suffers is a scratch here and there, and then he’s ready to pop back up again with a bemused twinkle in his eye and a wry quip. Part of the charm of this careerdefining Bruce Willis’ character was the regular-guy, Reagan-era resourcefulness he represented; now, he’s weirdly superhuman. But as charismatic as Willis ordinarily is, even he can’t fool us into thinking he’s enjoying himself this time. “A Good Day to Die Hard” is pointless and joyless, a barrage of noise and chaos, an onslaught of destruction without the slightest mention of consequence. Director John Moore mistakes shaky-cam and dizzying zooms for artistic finesse in his action sequences. But the most obnoxious element of all may be the father-son feelgoodery that occurs in the midst of all this madness. You see, Willis’ unstoppable New York cop has traveled to Moscow to track down his bitter, estranged son, Jack (Jai Courtney), whom he believes to be in criminal trouble. Jack is actually a spy working undercover to protect a government whistleblower (Sebastian Koch), and dad has arrived just in time to ruin his mission. Now they must work together – and bond. – Christy

Lemire, The Associated Press

“The Host” H½

STARRING: Saoirse Ronan, Diane Kruger, William Hurt, Jake Abel PLOT: When an unseen enemy threatens mankind by taking over their bodies and erasing their memories, Melanie will risk everything to protect the people she cares most about, proving that love can conquer all in a dangerous new world. RATING: PG-13 for sensuality and some violence TIME: 2 hours, 1 minute VERDICT: Judging solely by the film adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s 2008 novel “The Host,” the “Twilight” author’s commitment to the love triangle is inviolable. This sci-fi love story has way more Harlequin Romance in its DNA than Harlan Ellison. It’s a mushy and unsuspenseful melodrama. Like the EdwardBella-Jacob triangle that anchored the “Twilight” books and movies, “The Host” centers on a teenage girl (Ronan) who’s torn between two lovers. Like Bella, she’s of two minds. Only this time, it’s literal. Rather than offering any “Invasion of the Body Snatchers”-style thrills, “The Host” wastes most of its two hours on high-school-caliber drama. “You’re angry when I kiss a man you do love,” Wanda whines to Melanie, after smooching with both Jared and Ian, “and you’re angry when I kiss a man you don’t. It’s very confusing.” Writer-director Andrew Niccol (“In Time,” “Gattaca”) is usually better than this. But I don’t blame him. His body has been taken over by Meyer, whose monomaniacal focus on the supernatural menage

a trois is guided by her own alien overlords: the teenage girls who buy her books by the millions. –

Michael O’Sullivan, The Associated Press

“Jack the Giant Slayer” HHH STARRING: Nicholas Hoult, Eleanor Tomlinson, Ewan McGregor, Stanley Tucci PLOT: After farm boy Jack (Hoult) trades the family horse for some magic beans, he accidentally grows a towering beanstalk that could reignite an ancient war between men and giants. He joins a team of brave knights to climb the beanstalk and rescue a beautiful princess (Tomlinson) from the hungry giants. RATING: PG-13 for intense sequences of fantasy action violence, some frightening images and brief language TIME: 1 hour, 54 minutes VERDICT: Except for a few moments thrown in to gain a PG-13 rating, this is an old-fashioned family adventure fantasy along the lines of “Jason and the Argonauts” and “The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad.” Director Bryan Singer (“The X-Men”) plays the material at face value without shrinking from its corny virtues, and the cast charms by playing it straight. The CGI giants are fearsome villains, and visual effects featuring the beanstalk are imaginative. The thrill-packed finale goes on too long, though, which is a symptom of current action movies. – Jeffrey Westhoff,

Northwest Herald

“Olympus Has Fallen” HH STARRING: Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart, Morgan Freeman and Angela Bassett PLOT: Disgraced former presidential guard Mike Banning finds himself trapped inside the White House in the wake of a terrorist attack. Using his inside knowledge, Banning works with national security to rescue the president from his kidnappers. RATING: R for strong violence and language throughout TIME: 2 hours VERDICT: The first of two similarly themed action dramas set for this year (“White House Down” arrives in June), “Olympus Has Fallen” will put to the test the question of whether American audiences are ready, 12 years after 9-11, to watch, strictly as disposable popcorn entertainment, a film in which the United States and some of its most prominent landmarks are devastated by foreign terrorists. The answer almost undoubtedly will be yes, as the tough-guy former agent played by Butler gets to kick a whole lot of butt while trying to rescue the president. Although this is the sort of film in which the fate of the world hinges, when all is said and done, on the outcome of a one-on-one martial arts contest, director Antoine Fuqua’s notably bloody child of Die Hard still generates a fair amount of tension and produces the kind of nationalistic outrage that rock-ribbed Americans will feel in their guts. Foreign revenue should be hefty as well, especially in countries where many viewers will get a thrill watching Washington get the sort of treatment usually reserved for places like Baghdad and Kabul. – Todd Mc-

Carthy, The Hollywood Reporter

“Oz the Great and Powerful” HHH STARRING: James Franco, Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz PLOT: A tornado drops a two-bit carnival magician (Franco) into an enchanted land where he is mistaken for a wizard and thrust into a power struggle among three witches (Williams, Kunis, Weisz). RATING: PG for brief mild language and sequences of action and scary images TIME: 2 hours, 10 minutes VERDICT: Sam Raimi directs this reverent prequel to 1939’s “The Wizard of Oz” with his usual verve and visual dynamism. From its opening frame, it joins the handful of live-action films worth seeing in 3-D. The first half of the story is superior, particularly when the wizard gains a pair of traveling companions, a timid flying monkey voiced by Zach Braff and a feisty little china doll. These are Gollum-quality CGI characters. When the story shifts to action, spectacle and special effects, it still is dazzling to watch, but it loses heart (and perhaps some courage and brains). – Jeffrey Westhoff, The

“Safe Haven” HH STARRING: Julianne Hough, Josh Duhamel, Cobie Smulders PLOT: A young woman with a mysterious past lands in Southport, N.C., where her bond with a widower forces her to confront the dark secret that haunts her. RATING: PG-13 for thematic material involving threatening behavior, and for violence and sexuality TIME: 1 hour, 55 minutes VERDICT: It’s easy to understand why Hollywood loves doing business with author Nicholas Sparks. His books are huge best-sellers, and several of the films adapted from his novels – “Message in a Bottle,” “The Notebook,” and “Dear John” – have achieved impressive box office grosses. The latest Sparks adaptation, “Safe Haven,” will probably continue his winning streak. A thriller element that has not been present in earlier Sparks movies is designed to draw reluctant male viewers to see the picture, but they won’t respond with the same enthusiasm as his core audience of woozy romantics. The first problem with the film is that the burgeoning romance is too flat to generate intense audience empathy. Alex’s daughter, who barely remembers her mother, warms to Katie immediately, but her older brother has a harder time with his father’s new relationship. Still, this complication isn’t especially well developed in the screenplay by Dana Stevens and Gage Lansky. A related problem is the casting. The best Sparks movie, “The Notebook,” had the strongest cast, with talented newcomers Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams balancing seasoned veterans James Garner and Gena Rowlands. To put it as charitably as possible, the actors in “Safe Haven” are not in the same league. Hough, better known as a singer and dancer than a dramatic actress, is likably spunky, but Duhamel fades into the background, and there are no lively supporting players in the ensemble. – Stephen Farber, The

“21 & Over” HH½ STARRING: Miles Teller, Justin Chon, Johnathan Keltz PLOT: The night before his big medical school exam, a promising student celebrates his 21st birthday with his two best friends. RATING: R for crude and sexual content, pervasive language, some graphic nudity, drugs and drinking TIME: 1 hour, 33 minutes VERDICT: If you liked “The Hangover” but felt like it needed more projectile vomit, stampeding buffaloes and naughty sorority pledges being spanked, then “21 & Over” is the feel-good, feel-bad movie for you. The writers of that 2009 smash hit, Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, wrote the script here, too, and direct for the first time. Comparatively, it is simultaneously amped-up and slapped together. It is both younger and dumber but also even more equal opportunity in choosing its targets; the same people who get tooled on also rise up and enjoy a certain amount of empowerment. Sometimes this balancing act works and sometimes it doesn’t. “21 & Over” is at its best when it’s riding an all-night, boozy high, when it captures a sensation of idiotic invincibility. When it tries to be about something – growing up and being responsible but still maintaining the fun and friendships of youth – it feels a bit strained. – Christy Lemire, The

Review: Home shields you from non-Facebook tasks By ANICK JESDANUN The Associated Press When I got my first smartphone in 2010, I checked Facebook obsessively. But over time, the novelty wore off and opening Facebook’s app to check photos, links and posts from friends turned into a chore. In a sense, I’m the ideal target for Facebook’s new Home app. Those photos, links and posts I couldn’t be bothered to check on the social network’s app automatically come to the screen when I turn on the phone. I can see friends’ musings scroll by, as photos they’ve chosen to highlight take up the entire screen in the background. A new one appears every seven seconds. It’s as if Facebook has taken over the phone’s prime real estate and pushed Foursquare, email, weather, YouTube and my alarm clock to the slums. Home is ideal for people whose lives are centered on Facebook. Others might not feel at home. At first, the free app is available only on certain phones running Google’s Android operating system – HTC Corp.’s One, One X and One X Plus and Samsung Electronics Co.’s Galaxy S III and Galaxy Note 2. It will work on the Galaxy S 4 when the phone goes on sale in the coming weeks. If you have a Facebook app already installed on one of those phones, you’ll get a prompt when Home is ready to download on Friday. Otherwise, visit the phone’s Google Play store to get it. Home comes already installed on the HTC First, which ships today and costs $100 in the U.S. with a two-year AT&T Inc. service contract. I had a chance to spend several hours with a First that Facebook Inc. lent me to try out ahead of Home’s public debut. Facebook has no current plans to bring Home to the iPhone, iPad, BlackBerry or Windows devices. That’s because Google makes Android available on an open-source basis, free for anyone to modify, so it’s easier to make changes. That last part is key to the Home experience. Normally, Google’s apps and services are front and

center. Android makes it easy to get on Gmail, navigate with Google Maps and search for things using its Google Now voice assistant – all with a tap or two on the phone. Facebook is taking advantage of its rival’s open-source policy to place its apps

and services front and center. Right from the home screen, you see the things your friends are sharing on Facebook. Not interested in what Dave has to say? There’s Mary replacing him in seven seconds, and Jennifer replacing her seven seconds

later. Mixed in are posts from some of the groups you follow. Facebook says you’ll eventually get ads there, too. Facebook calls this the Cover Feed. I call it Facebook on steroids. I hardly have time to digest a post before a new one appears, and in many cases I’m seeing only the first several words in a post, hardly enough to convey a thought. The good news is I can pause the stream and view the full post at any time by tapping the screen. In doing so, I can comment on a post or hit a “like” button. The scrolling stream continues with another tap. As the text of your friend’s post appears, you’ll see in the background the person’s cover photo, the large image your friend chooses to display at the top of his or her profile page. Because cover photos are horizontal, and the app is designed for vertical use, you’re seeing only a snippet at a time. The part that is visible shifts over those seven seconds, as if a camera is slowly moving across, similar to the panning technique used in Ken Burns documentaries. If the post is of a photo, you’ll see that image rather than the cover photo in the background. Again, you’re only seeing a snippet – a part of the elephant, but not its whole. To view the full photo, you have to tap and keep your finger on the screen – though that can block part of the image. I prefer the way Facebook’s regular app handles photos: More of the image fits on the screen, even if it’s smaller. I had a few Facebook chats going as I was testing Home. The profile photo of the person I’m chatting with appears in a small circle to the side. I simply click on it to open the chat screen, where I could type a reply. Text messages I get appear this way, too. I found the Chat Heads feature fun, as I moved my friend’s images to the left, to the right, to the corner – and eventually to the trash. The fun ended when I tried to use the phone for other things. When I tried to dial a phone number, for instance, the friend’s head obstructed the number 3, forcing me to move it before continuing to dial. Chat Heads became intrusive, even off to the

side. To get to those other things, you drag a circle with your profile photo to one of three buttons. One gets you Facebook’s messenger app, which lets you chat just like Chat Heads. Another gets you the menu of apps on your phone, including the app for making calls. A third is supposed to take you to the most recently used app, though it’s hit or miss whether it’s actually the last app I used. I wish I could add other buttons for frequently used apps, such as Foursquare and Instagram. Although I hardly use the phone to make calls, a quick button would help, particularly for emergency calls. To get to Android’s traditional home screen on the HTC First, I had to drag my profile photo to the App Launcher, swipe the screen to the right and click “More...” A button to get you straight there would have been nice, too. Facebook has promised to update Home with new features and bug fixes at least once a month. So it’s possible my gripes will be addressed over time. In fact, Facebook is limiting Home to a small number of devices so it can make sure it’s done right. I look forward to seeing where Facebook goes with it. The one feature I like from the start is Notifications. With Android, alerts such as new messages and missed calls typically appear as tiny icons at the top of the screen. You have to drag down the top to get details. With Home, those details pop up in the middle of the screen and demand your attention. It’s similar to how the iPhone and the iPad handle alerts. Facebook was late in setting me up with a phone and app to try it out, so I didn’t have as much time as I would have liked with Home. It’s quite possible I’ll warm up to Home after spending more time with it. I might not get that chance, though. I’m fearful of what it’ll do to all the non-Facebook apps I now use and enjoy, so I’m not sure I’ll be rushing out to download Home on my personal Android phone. As much as I like not having to do a lot of work to use Facebook, all that ease makes doing other things on the phone a chore.

Luxury Lexus GX460 delivers Sport utility vehicle has comfort and power-operated third row REVIEWS Jerry Kuyper The GX460 is the luxury sport utility from Lexus. As such, it delivers the comforts expected, including a power up and down third row. With the luxurious interior, though, the GX460 does not forget its DNA. It still is an off-roader and a very capable one at that. Equipped to be an off-roader, the 2013 GX460 has a highlow, four-wheel-drive transfer case, hill ascent and descent controls, limited slip center differential with electronic locking features, tow hooks, fog lamps, overhead roof rails and undercarriage protection. During a bit of off-roading during a week of testing, the one impediment to maneuverability was a set of running boards. They made it more difficult to slip around trees and boulders. The running boards can be removed if a lot of off-roading is on the buyer's agenda. The guts of this fourwheel-drive vehicle is a 4.6-liter, 32-valve, 301-horsepower V8 mated to a shiftable six-speed automatic transmission.

the test week while driving in Chicago, suburbs and Interstate 39 with four people aboard, the 5,340-pound vehicle averaged 17.5 miles per gallon. The 23-gallon tank holds premium unleaded gasoline. One can get spoiled quickly in a sport utility such as the 2013 Lexus GX460, which can be ordered as a base $53,795 model or a $58,590 Premium edition. The tested GX460 was the base model, but it came with optional equipment that was standard on the Premium so

it priced out at $58,249. The options primarily were a 17 speaker (instead of nine) Mark Levinson sound system with up-to-date traffic and weather, a wood and leather trimmed steering wheel and a cargo net and cover. Standard equipment has built-in courtesy lights on the running boards, pushbutton “smart” start and stop, 4.2inch center console multi-information panel with backup camera and a one-touch power tilt and slide moonroof.

The SE model of Mitsubishi's Outlander Sport powertrain is a 2-liter, four-cylinder, 148-horsepower engine mated to a continuously variable transmission. Photo provided

Mitsubishi leans on Outlander Sport Three major automobile manufacturers assemble vehicles in Illinois. Ford Motor Co. has an assembly plant in Chicago, Chrysler has one in Belvidere and Mitsubishi has one in Normal. The Normal facility is the only assembly plant for Mitsubishi in North America, and the Outlander Sport is the only vehicle assembled at that central Illinois plant this year. This compact and modest sport utility vehicle has been the sales warrior for Mitsubishi and has been farmed out to print and Internet auto reviewers across the country. One recently arrived in my driveway. The delivery of the $23,695 compact Outlander Sport SE model came on the heels of the departure of a test 2013 $63,900 Mercedes-Benz GL450 full-sized sport utility vehicle. Any comparison would be unfair. An Outlander Sport’s virtues are in price, economy and several features besides the ones normally offered. Tires (P225) and wheels (alloy, aluminum 18-inch), seven airbags, and Bluetooth handsfree telephone are standard and above the norm. The seven airbags are in the front, on the front sides, overhead for two rows and lower down in front for protection of knees for occupants of the bucket seats. These airbags complement other safety inclusions such as traction and stability controls, a four-wheel antilock braking system, latch system for child seats and hill start assist. Since this was a top-ofthe-line SE model, automatic climate control, smart start, all-wheel-drive, heated front seats and three free months of satellite radio were standard.

Fast facts

REVIEWS Jerry Kuyper The AWD is selectable. If road conditions do not warrant it, front-wheel-drive remains the norm. Insulating factors are average as, during the test week, engine and road noise did come into the cabin. The noise was not distracting. The strut and multilink suspension system also is average. Serious road imperfections, such as potholes, will be felt. Overall though, the ride in the Sport was pleasant in city and country driving. The Sport compact SUV has fair power and a useful amount of storage space. The 2-liter, 148-horsepower, 16-valve, dual overhead cam four-cylinder engine is not a barn burner. While mated to a continuously variable transmission, the race, if that is what it can be called, from 0 to 60 mph takes 10 seconds. If not built for drag racing, the Sport does help out with the family budget. After putting more than 400 miles on the odometer during test week, the average fuel usage was 27.7 miles per gallon of regular unleaded gasoline. This was with two adults aboard, 20 pounds of luggage and splitting the driving time equally between suburban thoroughfares and the Interstate. There is a 15.8-gallon fuel tank. Disc brakes can bring this 3,263-pound Sport to a stop from 60 mph in a distance of 135 to 140 feet. This matches up with competitors in the small sport utility market. As a shortened version of the V-6 Outlander, the four-cylinder Outlander Sport’s cargo and rear seating spaces have been sacrificed.

Photos provided

ABOVE: A pulldown armrest is available to passengers in the rear seat in the 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport. BELOW: The vehicle has an optimum storage capacity of 49.5 cubic feet.

Instead of more than 60 cubic feet of storage, the Sport’s has been reduced to 49.5 cubic feet with 21.7 of them behind an upright split and fold rear seat. This is pretty good, and even when the rear seats are upright, there is lots of room for cargo. The storage area

also is not hampered by a sloping roof that can impinge on useful storage possibilities. Severe contours in the shapes of roofs designed recently for small SUVs (such as Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV 4) are impractical. Leg room is good in

the front and rear for tall adults. Amenities include air conditioning, cruise control, climate control with a micron filter, rain-sensing windshield wipers, fog lights in front, power windows and sideview (heated) mirrors, power door locks, heated front seats, manual tilt and telescoping steering wheel with redundant sound controls mounted on it, lighted vanity mirrors on front visors, variable intermittent wipers, two 12 volt outlets, a 140-watt, six-speaker sound system for AM/FM/ satellite radio, CD and MP3 players, armrests, cupholders and storage bins. The sound system borders on lousy because of one factor. The touchscreen is slow, and the process of moving from one radio station to another is cumbersome. Warranty coverage is five

Porsche Cayman gets boost for power-drunk drivers By JASON H. HARPER Bloomberg News Unlike, say, a 911 Turbo S, a Porsche Cayman S is not a vanity purchase. Tell somebody you’re considering buying one, and they might ask, “Oh, the SUV?” No, that would be the similar sounding Cayenne. The Cayman is the two-seat, mid-engine sports car first released in 2005 as a fixedroof brother to the convertible Boxster. This year brings the release of the third generation, which might have occasioned the Cayman to change, to grow up even. After all, it has never captured the prestige of the venerable 911, the practicality of the Cayenne or the obvious joys of the topless Boxster. In other words, the Cayman is Porsche’s odd duck. Its devotees are not particularly interested in fancy options or looking suave about town. Instead Cayman owners will drive 300 miles out of their way to find 10 miles of genuinely challenging road. Place a true-believer in a brand-new S model and let him fire it down the winding route. He will return a happy man. The most common complaint about the Cayman is that it’s underpowered. This version is a bit zestier. The base model gains 10 more horsepower and the S model five. The braking systems are improved, wheels larger and the wheelbase longer. The base price starts at

The Cayman is the two-seat, mid-engine sports car first released in 2005 as a fixed-roof brother to the convertible Boxster. This year marks the release of the third generation. $53,550, though at that price it will have oceans of plastic in the interior and the lesser, 2.7- liter, flat-six engine with 275 horsepower. Open your wallet for the S model, which starts at $64,750, and you get the motor with 3.4 liters and 325 hp. The test model was loaded with all of the performance upgrades, special paint and full leather, coming to a rather incredible $95,000. Many options are unnecessary, others key to getting the most out of the driving experience. The Sports Chrono pack-

age ($1,850) makes the car faster, and the sports exhaust ($2,825) a lot more fun. Fire up the engine and hit the sports exhaust button, which opens up a flap in the silencing system, allowing more sound to escape. Suddenly, the 3.4-liter flat-six sounds like no other car on the market. Hustle down the road, momentarily take your foot off the gas and the exhaust overrun indulgently rat-a-tats behind you, a Little Drummer Boy suddenly banging away like Led Zeppelin’s John Bon-

ham. This engine is so vocal, it’s positively loquacious. The exterior has been modestly reworked. The cant of the windshield and shape of roof line are bolder, making the Cayman more Porsche-like. The rear end gets a prominent horizontal line which cuts across the tail lamps, an oddity. It’s a bit of a letdown compared to the Boxster, which got a nose-to-tail remodeling last year and is an absolute beauty. I wish they’d made the Cayman’s redesign more

radical. But if you love to drive, you can live with the justokay looks. This isn’t a car to impress the Joneses. It’s a car to escape them – and the rest of your workaday troubles. Find a lonesome, winding road, and get the car into third gear, its sweet spot. (Best of luck choosing between the six- speed manual, which is involving and glorious, or the seven- speed automatic, which always knows which gear you want and is also glorious. The PDK

automatic costs $3,200 more.) The steering is spot on, the car is light and ideally balanced, and that engine just keeps on making great sounds. With the automatic version, you can keep your left foot poised over the brake, tapping it when you need to get a little weight on the front end to help it carve corners. The Cayman responds wonderfully to nuanced driving, as attuned to the driver as an orchestra to a revered conductor. The attendant electronic systems, including traction and stability controls and active suspension, all look for clues to your intent. They want to make you happy, without getting in your way. If you insist on creature comforts, you might allow yourself the sumptuous Carrera red leather ($1,510), or interior carbon-fiber accents ($1,515). Options like the radar-controlled adaptive cruise control are overkill, as is the $6,730 Burmester surround-sound stereo. They make sense in a Mercedes-Benz S- Class executive sedan, not here. Lastly, the Cayman gets the descending center console, first found on the Panamera sedan. It looks good, though the endless array of buttons can be distracting. Better to concentrate on the feel of the steering wheel and the crackle of the motor. Forget about impressing people. Get out there on your own. The new Cayman demands it. There is glory to being the odd duck.

Seats large in 7-passenger SUV

Friday, April 12, 2013 • Page E13

ARLINGTON LEXUS IN PALATINE

• LEXUS Continued from page E1 Cruise control is “smart” so it automatically adjusts according to distance from vehicle in front. In turns, adaptive high intensity discharge headlamps follow the steering wheel (no more than 15 degrees). This should illuminate the roadway ahead better than headlamps that look straight ahead in turns. Probably one of the most accommodating features, though, was the third row, which operated by power. Switches inside the rear hatch control the movement of the 50/50 split third-row seats. The process is virtually effortless to raise one of the splits separately or together in tandem into seating positions or lower them to form a flat loading floor (about 40 cubic feet) behind the second row. The 60/40 split and heated second row seats can move forward or backward up to six inches manually. The smaller passenger side split can move forward 10 inches to allow room for people to enter the third row. That smaller middle row seat can adjust back on its track the entire 10 inches or portions thereof to allow for more leg room in the rear. The larger of the split middle row seats also adjusts forward or backward manually to give more comfort to those riding in the third row. Seats, whether in the first row buckets or second and third rows are leather and large in this seven-passenger (2-3-2) SUV. Grab handles, cup holders, reading lights, armrests and storage compartments serve the three rows. Cargo capacity is 65 cubic feet (third row folded into floor, second row flattened), which is nothing exceptional. Besides running boards, there is lighting for the tow hitch and ball mount area in the rear, and puddle lamps guide feet into the front and second rows of seats.

Leg room is ample in the three seating rows of the seven-passenger 2013 Lexus GX460. One touch is required for the power open and close, tilt and slide, moonroof. The four power windows are express up and down and come with anti-pinch protection. Cruise control and redundant audio controls are mounted on the power tilt and telescope leather-wrapped steering wheel. The basic model's sound system serves AM/FM/XM satellite radio, six-disc compact disc player, MP3 player, USB port and Bluetooth hands-free telephone system and the upgrade Mark Levinson system adds voice command, DVD audio and video and the latest, via Sirius satellite radio, in stock reports and sport scores. Other niceties are privacy glass, flip-open rear glass hatch, floor carpets, trip meters, outside temperature display, climate controls for three zones and air filtration system, air conditioning, lighted vanity mirrors, electrical outlets front and rear, clock and compass. Power also controls the heated exterior and foldable mirrors and door locks. Memory for two persons governs settings for driver’s seat, exterior mirrors, steering wheel and climate control. Wide 265 all-terrain tires are mounted on 18-inch, five-spoke alloy wheels with a full-size spare stored underneath. The 12- to 13-inch brakes control the wheels well. The

GX460 has been tested coming to a stop from 60 miles per hour in 125 to 130 feet, which is an average stopping distance for a vehicle this large. Other safety equipment includes traction and stability controls, front airbags, side airbags for two rows and curtains for three rows, pretensioners and headrest complementing seat belts, rain-sensing variable intermittent wipers, intermittent rear wiper with washer, daytime running lights and adaptive high intensity discharge headlamps. The GX460 towers over most of the other so-called light vehicles on roadways, which is another safety factor. It simply feels more safe riding in a vehicle that weighs 5,000 pounds rather than one in the 3,000-pound category. The front double wishbone suspension is complemented by shocks, arms, coil springs and stabilizer bars. As tested on several rugged roads, the air suspension with automatic load leveling kept this heavy SUV on an even keel. Warranty coverage is four years or 50,000 miles with 24-hour roadside assistance, free first and second scheduled maintenance service, plus free lodging if there is a breakdown and you are stranded more than 100 miles from home. The powertrain has a sixyear or 70,000-mile warranty.

36 month lease with $3,614 total due at lease inception (includes ﬁrst month’s payment and $0 refundable security deposit). 10,000 mile/year lease.

A 2013 Ford Shelby GT500 drives on a track May 17, 2012, at Road Atlanta in Braselton, Ga.

Spirit of Carroll Shelby lives in 2013 Mustang By ANN M. JOB For The Associated Press Nearly a year after race car driver and car designer Carroll Shelby died, his spirit lives on in a 2013 Ford Mustang with the most powerful series production V-8 in the world and unmistakable Shelby Mustang styling. With a top speed of 200 mph, the 2013 Ford Shelby GT500 Coupe is breathtaking, even daring, to drive – perfectly in character with the rugged Formula 1 race car driver. The 5.8-liter Ford V-8 under the car’s raised hood is supercharged to generate a whopping 662 horsepower and 631 foot-pounds of torque. From a standstill, unless the accelerator was pressed with a feather-light touch, the test car’s big, wide and somewhat worn rear tires could be overwhelmed by the power, sending the car’s rear end fishtailing. It made for lightning quick turns and grand exits – and a feeling that somewhere,

Carroll Shelby was grinning mischievously. Intriguingly, this 2013 Shelby two door, which is the ultimate Mustang this model year, is built on the same Flat Rock, Mich., assembly line as more basic and less pricey Mustangs. Starting retail price for a 2013 Shelby GT500 Coupe is $54,995, and the only transmission is a six-speed manual. A Shelby GT500 Convertible is offered as a 2014 model, with a starting retail price of $60,445. While these prices are up there, the four-seat Shelby is something of a bargain, given all the power that comes with the price. As a comparison, the starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, for a 2013 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 with 580 horsepower and 556 foot-pounds of torque is $56,550. Note this Camaro price includes the federal government’s gas guzzler tax of $1,300. The 2013 Shelby GT500 does not incur the gas guzzler tax.

Meantime, a 2013 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with supercharged V-8 developing 638 horses and 604 foot-pounds of torque has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $113,595. In his late 80s as the 2013 Shelby GT500 was being developed, Shelby collaborated with Ford and drove the car himself for up to eight hours at a time at Ford’s proving grounds. It wasn’t a memorial car, exactly, to Shelby, who had health problems for many years. But it was a car with his name on it, and the gritty Texan wasn’t about to miss out on making it his own. Fittingly, the test car snapped passersby to attention with its long hood, wide body stripe going from front to back and an awesome, deep exhaust note. In fact, a neighbor didn’t see the test car in the residential garage but heard it before it emerged and came running. People who admitted they couldn’t afford such a car, or wouldn’t have the nerve to

drive one, wanted their pictures taken with this Shelby. No doubt, a few photos went up on Facebook. Still, this Shelby GT500 isn’t a limited-production model. Ford will match production with demand, with up to 10,000 sales in a year anticipated. For car buffs, the test car could be emotional. As an example, after a satisfying drive, it was not unusual to caress the fender flares and put hands out on the hot hood of the test car to soak up the full experience. And even non car buffs can find his or her pulse quickening. The reason: With the power and speed of this car, driver reactions need to be quick, and the ride can be harsh. Driver and passengers in the test car dropped down to get in the car and snugged into optional leather, Recaro form-fitting front seats. Views out front included the raised hood, and the 4.5-foot-tall Shelby GT500 sat lower than many other cars on the roads.

But the low-to-the-ground stance and wide track of this Mustang made it feel securely planted. There was no ignition start button in this Shelby, just an old-fashioned ignition keyhole. A quick turn of the key, and the big, 5.8-liter, double overhead cam, supercharged V-8 rumbled to life and the optional Shelby instrument panel colorfully came alive. The driver had to have a strong left leg to depress the clutch pedal in the test car. And for someone 5 foot 4, the driver seat had to be moved up so far that the driver’s knee sometimes rubbed against the lower part of the steering wheel assembly. Honestly, it felt like being in a race car, where the driver sits close to the steering wheel – it’s called “up on the wheel.” But race cars don’t have frontal air bags, so short-statured drivers in the Shelby GT500 have to sort out the seat track position and a bit of seatback recline to get the advised 12 inches of separation from chest to air bag.

It’s worth it to enjoy the Shelby GT500 in motion. Power is raw, heady and comes on instantly, with peak torque coming on at 4,000 rpm. Redline is near 7,000 rpm. This car goes from zero to 60 mph in less than 4 seconds, giving the sensation of a dragster during flat-out starts. Premium gasoline is required for the 16-gallon tank. While the federal government’s fuel economy rating for this car is 15 miles per gallon in city driving and 24 mpg on the highway, the test car averaged much less – 14.4 mpg in combined city/highway travel. OK, it was “what a hoot” kind of driving, not sedate driving. But after just 114 miles, the gas gauge indicated the tank was already half depleted. The two back seats are cramped, low and difficult to get into. Not even children would want to sit there for long. There is a sizable liftover to get items into the 13.4-cubic-foot trunk.

Volkswagen’s newest gas Jetta hybrid trumps diesel model By ANN M. JOB The Associated Press Volkswagen’s newest Jetta has the highest mileage rating ever – a combined 45 miles per gallon in city and highway travel. But, it doesn’t use diesel fuel, as previous high-mileage Jettas have. The 2013 Jetta Hybrid’s four-cylinder engine sips gasoline and is mated to an electric motor. The compact Jetta Hybrid sedan is only Volkswagen’s second gas-electric hybrid in the United States. The first was the Touareg Hybrid sport utility vehicle, which debuted in the 2011 model year. High mileage isn’t the only surprise of the Jetta Hybrid. This is a spunky hybrid whose acceleration and low-end “oomph” are strong enough to push passengers’ backs into the seats. The reason: The engine is both direct-injected and turbocharged to deliver 150 horsepower and up to 184 foot-pounds of torque. This torque, by the way, comes on at a low engine speed of 1,000 rpm. Meantime, the onboard electric motor delivers more power to push the total horsepower to 170. Pricing for the 2013 gasoline-electric Jetta Hybrid is $8,000 more than that of a base Jetta. But it’s just $1,900 more than the starting price of a Jetta with diesel engine, and it’s only $755 more than the base retail price of a new

The compact Jetta Hybrid sedan is Volkswagen’s second gas-electric hybrid in the United States. The engine is both direct-injected and turbocharged to deliver 150 horsepower and up to 184 foot-pounds of torque. Toyota Prius. Specifically, starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, is $25,750 for a base Jetta Hybrid and rise to $31,215 for a top-of-the-line SEL Premium with 17-inch wheels, a Fender audio system, rearview camera, sunroof and heated front seats among the features. All Jetta Hybrids come with a seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic transmission. The lowest starting retail price, including destination charge, for a non-hybrid, 2013 Jetta S is $17,515 with a 115-horsepower, gasoline four cylinder and manual transmission. Standard equipment includes air con-

ditioning, keyless entry and heated exterior mirrors. The federal government’s fuel economy rating for this base 2013 Jetta S is 28 mpg in combined city/highway travel. The 2013 Jetta TDI, which has a 140-horsepower, turbocharged diesel four cylinder, has a starting retail price of $23,850 with manual transmission. Note the Jetta TDI has more torque – 236 footpounds at 1,750 rpm – than the Jetta Hybrid. But the Jetta Hybrid, which is rated at 42 mpg in city driving and 48 mpg on the highway, tops the Jetta TDI’s government fuel mileage ratings of 30/42 mpg with either a manual or automatic transmission.

Gasoline-electric hybrid competitors include the top-selling hybrid, the Toyota Prius, which starts at $24,995 for a base, 2013 Prius Two with 98-horsepower four-cylinder engine and nickel-metal hydride battery pack. The Prius is a mid-size hatchback and has mileage ratings of 51/48 mpg in city/ highway travel. The Prius is tuned to deliver higher mileage in slower-speed driving. The 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid starts at $27,995 with 188-horsepower four cylinder and lithium-ion battery pack. The Fusion Hybrid is a mid-size sedan with mileage ratings of 47 mpg for both city and highway travel. The Jetta Hybrid test car was so peppy when start-

ing up from stoplights and in sudden accelerations in city traffic, the driver had to double-check that it was a hybrid. Other gas-electric hybrids don’t accelerate this forcefully and they tend to provide a more sedate driving experience. When pressed, the powertrains of other hybrids can seem to be straining and buzzing loudly to deliver more acceleration. This is particularly true of some hybrids that have continuously variable transmissions (CVTs) that don’t have preset shift points. But this new Jetta’s 1.4-liter four cylinder has generous and flexible power at the ready. Even better, in the test Jetta Hybrid SEL Premium, the blending of power from this engine and the 20-kilowatt, onboard electric motor was seamless. There were no instances of hesitation between the two power supply points. The seven-speed, dual-clutch transmission in the Jetta Hybrid managed the power delivery expertly, and because it’s not a CVT, this transmission behaved like that in a normal car. Unfortunately, the Jetta Hybrid is so fun to drive, it’s easy to creep above speed limits. In fact, because of spirited driving, the tester never got anywhere near the government’s fuel economy ratings. But it still averaged 36.1 mpg. Volkswagen requires premium gasoline in the

Jetta Hybrid. Even with the not-fuel-efficient test drive, the range on a single, 11.9-gallon tank was an impressive 430 miles. The regenerative brakes that reclaim energy that otherwise would be wasted during braking took some getting used to as they grabbed aggressively. The Jetta Hybrid’s trunk space is notable at 11.3 cubic feet, because this is akin to what’s in a non-hybrid, small sedan. Large knobs to manually adjust front seats on lower-trim models can be clumsy to use for people who don’t have a lot of finger strength. Even on the SEL Premium model, seats are covered in leatherette – nice looking but not real leather. The Jetta Hybrid looks a bit frumpy and not exactly upscale on the outside. The test car never got a single glance from passersby, and the only big clue that is was not a regular Jetta was the hybrid badging. Still, the Jetta Hybrid rode solidly and was poised and stable in curves. Some road noise came into the passenger compartment, and passengers felt vibrations from road bumps. The 2013 Jetta Hybrid received four out of five stars, overall, in government crash tests, which includes five out of five stars in side crash testing. Standard safety equipment includes electronic stability control, antilock brakes and six air bags.

Fresh, 2nd-generation Buick Enclave for 2013 By ANN M. JOB For The Associated Press The Buick Enclave, the best-selling, seven-seat, premium- or luxury-branded sport utility vehicle in the United States, is refreshed for 2013 with updated front, rear and interior styling and a more controlled, smooth ride. The 2013 Enclave also features the auto industry’s first front-seat center air bag. With it, the Enclave received the top overall rating of five-out-of-five stars from the federal government for passenger protection in frontal and side crashes. Another highlight: The Enclave’s 115.2 cubic feet of cargo space is huge compared with competitors such as the Acura MDX and Volvo XC90. The Enclave also is a recommended buy of Consumer Reports, which notes the Enclave’s reliability has improved to average. Still, keeping the same V-6 that was in last year’s Enclave, the 2013 Enclave remains at the lower end in fuel economy among crossover SUVs, which are those built on car-based, rather than truck, platforms. The highest federal government fuel economy rating for a 2013 Enclave is 17 miles per gallon in city driving and 24 mpg on the highway. So, the expected city/ highway average range on a tank of gasoline, per the federal government, is not quite 400 miles. Starting retail price is $39,340 for a base, frontwheel drive, 2013 Enclave with cloth-covered seats and no sunroof. The lowest starting retail price for a 2013 Enclave with all-wheel drive is $45,355, and leather-trimmed seats are included with every all-wheel drive Enclave. All Enclaves come with a rearview camera to help drivers see what’s be-

There is one engine in the Enclave – a naturally aspirated, 288-horsepower, double overhead cam, direct-injection V-6 – and it’s mated to a six-speed automatic. Some competitors offer more power. The 2013 Acura MDX, which has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $44,175, has a 300-horsepower V-6 mated to a six-speed automatic. All MDX models come standard with all-wheel drive, leather seat trim, rearview camera, power liftgate, heated front seats and moonroof, among other things. Another competitor, the 2013 Volvo XC90, has

a starting retail price of $40,595 as a front-wheel drive model with 240-horsepower, inline six cylinder mated to a six-speed automatic. Standard on every XC90 are leather-trimmed seats and a moonroof, among other things. Sales of 56,703 Enclaves in calendar 2012 were down from 58,392 the year-earlier. But the sales still topped the 50,584 sales in 2012 of the MDX. The 2013 Enclave is the second generation model, coming after the original debuted in 2007. The 2013 Enclave retains plenty of familiarity with the first generation. As an example, while the new lights in front and back are light-emitting diodes

that add interest and flair, the Enclave has the same basic shape it always had. The hood looks higher, and the grille is bigger and more showy, but there’s no mistaking the Enclave for something else. Inside, the Enclave feels updated but not foreign. The blinkers still click with an old-fashioned, metallic sound, and the gear shifter in the center console has a retro look. But new materials and stitching that extends across the top of the dashboard and onto the top ledges of the inside doors impart a rich interior, and soft-touch plastics are evident. Even the different dark brown interior leather trim called cocoa was unexpectedly pretty in the

test car. This color is new for 2013. Adding an upscale and modern feel was the attractive, new, blue ambient lighting that outlined the interior doors in a classy way. Two windows in the ceiling – one a working moonroof above the front seats and the other a skylight above the second row – gave an airy, open feel. They were a $1,400 option even on the test Enclave, which was a top-of-the-line, all-wheel drive model with the Premium Group of added equipment. The Enclave looked substantial and rode with heft. Stretching nearly 17 feet long from bumper to bumper, the Enclave tucked closely into a residential garage.

Riding on shiny, 19inch wheels, the new Enclave retained the smooth and mostly quiet ride for which it is known. But the handling seemed a bit tightened from the first generation. It’s not enough of a change to say the Enclave has a performance feel, but there’s not as much of a pillowy, cushioned ride, either. Buick officials say the independent, MacPherson strut front suspension now has a direct-acting stabilizer bar. There also are new dampers and springs in front to reduce the heavy feel that can come from large wheels at the corners. The Enclave is truly functional. Opening the liftgate and putting down the back two rows of seats gave enormous cargo room and a flat floor that came in handy for trips to the home improvement stores. Seats went down and up easily, with accessible levers and straps to control the up and down motions. Speaking of levers, the Enclave has nearly invisible levers at the outer side of each of the second-row captain’s chairs that allow these seats to move fore and aft on their tracks to adjust legroom between second- and third rows. Another mechanism moves the second-row seats up and out of the way to provide decent access to the third row. The 33.2 inches of thirdrow legroom is generous, given the 29.1 inches in the back of the MDX. The test Enclave’s engine and transmission were OK, but gear shifts were noticeable and there was engine whine at times. Torque peaks at 270 footpounds at 3,400 rpm, and acceleration was not instantaneous. The test Enclave averaged just 14.5 mpg.

The Mercedes-Benz GL SUV is big. Three rows of seats big. More than 5,400 pounds big. While the GL is no shrinking violet, it’s not like the big boys that were all the rage in the early 2000s.

Mercedes-Benz’s $63K big boy SUV guzzles gas Vehicle gets 14 mpg in city By JASON H. HARPER Bloomberg News The Mercedes-Benz GL SUV is big. Three rows of seats big. More than 5,400 pounds big. The wonder of this giant SUV is that once you are chugging along a secondary road with a good head of steam, it somehow doesn’t feel all that gargantuan. While the GL is no shrinking violet, it’s not like the big boys that were all the rage in the early 2000s. I’m referring to the once-popular Chevy Suburban and Ford Excursion, land-bound barges which slurped down gasoline by the barrelful. Both were 18 feet-something long. (The Suburban lives on, with a much smaller sales; the Excursion is dead.) The GL serves the same alleged purpose as those hulks: to haul you and your extended family and their junk. Yet all too often these big SUVs are commandeered by the driver riding alone. Hence today’s full-size SUVs call for better drivability and increased fuel efficiency. The GL is 16.75 feet long and seats as many as seven people. Fold down the middle and rear seats and you’ll open up 93.8 cubic feet worth of space. I’ve seen smaller Manhattan studio apartments. The truck’s bulk is well disguised by a mix of gentle folds and body contours, a sculpted tailgate and a spoiler jutting off the roof. They trick the eye into reading the sheet metal as separate components rather than an oversized blob. Up front, the shape of the headlights is dynamic, playing off the bluntness of the grill. The hood slopes and drops off at the sides, improving sight lines and giving the driver a good idea of the fenders’ width, making it less stressful when backing out of tight garages or navigating cramped side streets. All-wheel-drive is standard. The GL moves through curves with confidence despite a soft, cosseted ride. Like an increasing number of oversized vehicles whose engineers seem to have taken their cue from Range Rover, it has an adjustable air suspension. The ride height changes depending on the situation. It squats at highway speeds and can be raised to crest over obstacles in the road. Still, as countless Suburban owners have learned, fuel efficiency matters, particularly when you’re standing in front of the gas pump, cringing. The 362-horsepower GL450 has a 4.6-liter V-8 that gets 14 miles per gallon in town and 19 on the freeway. Not super economical. The more-powerful models, the 429-hp GL550 and the 550-hp GL63 AMG, get even

poorer mpg. Potential buyers might consider the diesel model I tested. The GL350 BlueTEC has a 3.0-liter, turbocharged diesel V-6. This alternative powertrain is mated with a seven-speed automatic transmission and manages 19 city, 26 highway. Pricing starts at $63,050, making it slightly cheaper than the GL450. (The super-performing AMG version, with a 5.5-liter V-8, is $117,800.) My test model carried a heap of optional packages, raising the sticker to $84,110. Diesel is incredibly popular in Europe, and it’s heartening to see more diesel models making their way to the U.S. Not long ago there were only a few diesel SUVs available, including the BMW X5, Volkswagen Touareg and Audi Q7. Now Mercedes offers versions of the ML and GL and, soon, the smaller GLK. Porsche has a diesel Cayenne and the Jeep Grand Cherokee soon will offer a diesel V-6. The GL350 makes only 240 horsepower and, characteristic of a diesel, it churns out 455 pound-feet of torque. That means power delivery is very different from a high-revving, high-horsepower engine. Think of it more like a charging polar bear rather than a jaguar’s high-spirited sprint to top speed. Poke at the diesel GL’s accelerator and it takes a moment to react. Once it’s moving, the full strength and anger are already there. Hence the BlueTEC hustles up even the steepest highway hills while never seeming to labor hard. Revolutions per minute are remarkably low – max engine speed is 4,750. Stab the gas to make a sudden pass, though, and the moment’s pause can seem interminable. Drawbacks are few. My GL started up in extremely cold temperatures without any hesitation, and unlike old diesels, doesn’t spew black smog. Still, every 10,000 miles or so, drivers have to refill the 8.3-gallon urea tank with a fluid, called Adblue, which helps counteract diesel’s exhaust pollutants. While you can do it yourself, most owners have it done at the dealership, which means added cost. If you do pack the family in, most of your passengers will find the GL plenty roomy, including those in the second row. The third row is harder to access – better for kids than grandparents. As for the $20,000 worth of extras on my test model, the best option was the $1,090 panoramic sunroof, making the cabin lighter and airier. The GL is definitely the giant on Mercedes’s lot. Fortunately, it’s a gentle one.

How to keep rodents from making vehicles their homes I live in a heavily wooded suburb of St. Paul, Minn. Rodents have made my vehicles their home for decades. I store a 1986 Mazda RX-7 every winter and a 1999 Honda Accord every summer in my driveway. I’ve learned to stuff every exhaust and intake with oily cloth to keep acorns and nests out of these components. I have tried many products to make the car less hospitable such as poison inside the car after hearing that it makes the varmints thirsty enough to vacate the area in search of water before dying. I’ve stuffed dryer sheets in common nesting areas after hearing that they were a varmint repellant, but the mice made nests out of them. A tray of mothballs resulted in a nest leaning against it. I’ve considered poisoning every critter that dares to step into the engine compartment, but I know the parade would be endless and I’m concerned about poisoning animals up the food chain. Still, every time I revive a car the engine smells like I’m roasting nuts and often I have a dead critter inside the car and they can be very difficult to find. I know I could store vehicles in a well-managed storage unit, but I’m not dealing with classic cars here so I’m trying to improve on what I have. Do you know of any products or tips that really do work? – J.H., North Oaks, Minn Critters seem to dominate. It is almost impossible to prevent them from entering a vehicle unless it is completely sealed. I do not know of a foolproof method, but perhaps I can provide some insight. Since you obstruct the engine intake and exhaust systems, consider obstructing the cowl area. This area is ripe with ducts to the heating, ventilation and air

need to remove the sunroof in order to fix it. I’d rather not have the interior disassembled if I can help it. Do you have any suggestions? – K.R., email

DR. GIZMO Phil Arendt conditioning system. It’s a great access point for critters to use. Additionally, there are drains in the bottom of doors and rear quarter panels critters may squeeze through. Sealing these is not a good option because water needs to drain from these openings, so consider using porous materials such as window screen to block the opens while allowing water to drain. Obstructing any opening about the size of a pencil will deter critters from entering the interior. Steel wool works well in openings in homes, so it may work fine in small openings in a car. Steel wool is subject to rust, so don’t use it in moist areas. Also, remember to remove it when it comes time to place a vehicle back in service. Additionally, years ago, a reader shared his success with deterring rodents. He placed incense of spearmint in the trunk, cabin and engine compartment. Since it worked well for him, it might work for you.

Water leaks from the left rear corner of the sunroof in my 2004 BMW X3 and soaks the back of the front driver’s seat and rear floor. I’ve been dowsed with water more than once. It happens only during heavy rain or when going through a carwash. If snow is on the roof and melts no water comes in. The sunroof opens and closes fine and the alignment looks the same as it did when the car was new. I called my dealer about the trouble but the service manager said his mechanic will

There is nothing more annoying than a cold shower while driving. Don’t fret. The fix may not require an interior teardown. There are water drains at the corners of the sunroof assembly. More than likely, the drain at the left rear is blocked. Ask a technician to clear all of the drains, and the trouble should be cured. If not, a technician may need to follow procedures in a factory technical service bulletin to correct troubles in cables that operate the system.

The engine idle goes up and down in my 1994 Mercedes C280. The car has a 6-cylinder engine and 127,000 miles and it is in like new condition. Until now, it has not given me any trouble. I went to my local repair shop. They have installed a new sensor for air flow and a temperature sensor. This work did not cure the trouble. After more tests they found code 22. Now they say there likely is a problem in the wiring but they will need time to find the problem. I have not given them permission to do more work. I have owned the vehicle since it was new. Could faulty wiring cause the trouble? – R.R., email Yes indeed. Wiring troubles are not unusual, especially in older vehicles. The diagnostic trouble code indicates a limp mode. This allows you to drive to a repair shop. Your description of the trouble might be caused by a wiring problem for the throttle actuator. Ask your technician to consider this suggestion when you are

ready to authorize further work.

I have a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with a 5.3-liter engine and automatic transmission. The brakes needed replacement. I replaced the rear brake shoes and drums. I also replaced the front brake pads and rotors. I did not replace any hydraulic parts. I didn’t even open the master cylinder to add fluid. After replacing all of the parts the brake pedal traveled much lower than before doing all of the work. Pumping the pedal does not bring it up. I rechecked the adjustment on the rear brakes. I readjusted them so there is a slight drag but this did not fix the issue. I rechecked the front brakes and everything looks fine. The brakes operate fine but the pedal is low. What’s up? – N.L.C., email The trouble might be because of incorrect parts, so make sure your auto supply store sold you the correct parts. If this is not the trouble, it is possible air somehow entered the system. Bleeding the system may bring the pedal up to normal levels. When bleeding the system, it may be necessary for the antilock brake module to be cycled. If a basic bleed procedure does not cure the trouble, consider taking the vehicle to a repair shop to have an ABS system bleed procedure performed as a repair shop will have the tools to perform the operation.

My wife drives a 2005 Honda Pilot EX with a 3.5 liter engine. It has 133,000 miles. Recently, the engine began to occasionally stall and the check engine light turned on. She went to a repair shop where a mechanic did some tests. According to the invoice he found codes PO420 and PO430. He deter-

mined the catalytic converters need replacement. The shop manager would like to install converters from Honda that are expensive. I called my auto parts store. They have converters for much less. Generally, we keep cars for eight to 10 years before buying a new vehicle. We intend to keep this one a few more years as it has never given us any trouble until now. If we have the shop install after-market converters from an auto supply store do you think they will last as long as we intend to keep the vehicle? – T.M., email For those who may not know what a catalytic converter is, it’s the main part in the engine exhaust system that processes engine exhaust to reduce exhaust emissions so we breathe clean air. The entire emission control system is designed around the performance of the catalytic converter. Once a converter fails, exhaust emissions exceed federal and state standards. Also, when converters fail, an engine often exhibits symptoms such as stalling, poor fuel economy, illuminated check engine light and lack of engine performance. The after-market catalytic converters likely will last as long as you intend to own the vehicle. The original equipment converters are an exact fit requiring no modification of the factory designed exhaust system. Generally, after-market catalytic converters such as you describe require some modification to the system. A technician likely will cut the old converters from the exhaust pipes. It is likely he or she will need to use adapters that fit the exhaust pipes and converters. Then, the parts are welded in place making sure engine exhaust does not leak from the joints.

The transmission in my 2000 Toyota Camry feels as though it slips or delays when shifting from second to third gear. When this started the check engine light turned on. I went to a quick lube where I had the transmission fluid flushed. The service man said it was risky to flush the fluid. He said the transmission may not work at all after the service. With that understanding I had the fluid flushed anyway. The service did not cause any further trouble but it did not cure the shifting problem and it does not seem to be getting any worse. Do you think the transmission needs an overhaul? – N., email There is a problem in the transmission. Whether it needs an overhaul or not is yet to be determined. Because the check engine light is shining, a technician will perform tests to read diagnostic trouble codes stored in the control module. The codes will help determine what fault is in the transmission. The trouble might be caused by a failing valve in the valve body. There may be an electrical fault. Problems such as these generally do not lead to an overhaul. Unfortunately, it is possible there is a failed part deep in the unit that will require extensive disassembly and overhaul. At this point until diagnostic work is completed keep your fingers crossed that an overhaul is not the cure.

A1 Tire & Auto master technician Mike Marik checks the wheel alignment of a car inside the shop’s new location in Crystal Lake.

‘More than just tires’ A1 expands into new facility in Crystal Lake By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – When Bret Mathis opened A1 Tire & Auto with his dad 18 years ago, the automotive industry looked much different. Businesses were specialized – tune up shops, glass, upholstery. Mathis hung his hat on tires. But over the years, the landscape has changed, and A1 has changed with it. “Now, it’s gotten so generalized that everyone has to do just about everything to stay in business,” said Mathis, whose father retired from the shop about a decade ago, leaving him the sole owner. To that end, Mathis recently made the decision to change locations, moving from the shop he’s called home since the mid-1990s to a new location about a mile and a half away at 615 A Factory Road, Crystal Lake. The new shop has larger doors, allowing A1 to accommodate larger vehicles like boxed vans, which they couldn’t fit into the old space. The last shop also tended to get hot in the summer and cold in the winter, a fact Mathis said he knows his customers took note of. This shop alleviates that problem. And at 7,750 square feet, the new location packs on an extra 1,000 square feet to operate, allowing the store to continue to expand services going forward. “We always had to explain to people we did more than just tires,” Mathis said. “It’s everything, basically, but body work. Now we’re trying to emphasize more on the service end of it rather than just tires.” Although A1 started out specializing in tires, the shop now provides full service under the hood and can diagnose and fix just about any problem a motorist might be having. Recently, the shop has started in-

stalling Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Device, or BAIID, monitors. It’s another way for Mathis to gain an edge in a cluttered industry. He’s also working on building a

kid’s play area in the building. The issue now is finding ways to get the word out. Mathis sent out post cards and took out ads, but he said he’s sure it will still take some time for his customers to get used to the change – 18 years is a long time. “Over the course of the years, we’ve made a lot of friends in that complex,” he said. “But business is business and you got to do what you got to do. “Long-term, it’s going to be a fantastic move.”

The number of repossessed homes in McHenry County fell dramatically in March as did the number of homes that entered the foreclosure market, the latest evidence that the foreclosure crisis is abating amid an improving housing market. According to foreclosure listing firm RealtyTrac Inc., there were 104 foreclosure completions in March, down from 115 in February and 165 in March 2012. A total of 169 McHenry County homes entered the foreclosure process in March, compared to 234 in February and 297 in March 2012. In Kane County, 267 homes entered foreclosure in March, down from 326 in February and 488 in March 2012. There were 256 foreclosure completions in March, compared to 214 in February and 300 in March 2012. Several factors are contributing to the decline in completed foreclosures: Steady job growth and ultralow mortgage rates are helping the once-battered housing market recover, driving demand for homes and prices upward. Higher home values help restore equity to homeowners, which can help those at risk of foreclosure by improving their chances of refinancing their mortgage to a lower payment or place them in a better position to sell their home. Nationwide, the U.S. homes repossessed by lenders last month fell to the lowest level in more than five years, While some states still saw increases in homes taken back by banks, nationally home repossessions fell 3 percent in March from the previous month and were down 21 percent from a year earlier, RealtyTrac said Thursday. Thirty-four states posted annual declines in completed foreclosures. Among those bucking that trend: Arkansas, Maryland, Washington and Pennsylvania. Illinois foreclosure completions were up slightly, from 3,506 in March 2012, to 3,549 last month. State foreclosure starts were down, however, from 6,039 in March 2012 to 4,740 last month.

Huntley High team wins MCC Marketing Challenge NORTHWEST HERALD CRYSTAL LAKE – More than 150 high school marketing students let their creative juices flow as they presented marketing plans for frozen yogurt to their clients, owners of Yumz Gourmet Frozen Yogurt in Crystal Lake. Students participated in McHenry County College’s 2013 Marketing Challenge last week, where they competed, developing and presenting the best marketing plan. The students were judged on logo and slogan creation, product packaging, brand and line extension development and media strategy, including use of social media targeted at high school students. First place was awarded to a team from Huntley High School. Second place went to a team from Prairie Ridge High School, and third place went to Cary-Grove High School. Huntley’s first-place team of Max Pilkerton, Tyler Schwartz, Trevor Obecny, Austin Gepperth,

and Bryce Beschorner thought of a Yumz yogurt truck or wagon that would drive anywhere and everywhere. The company would utilize word of mouth through social media and sponsor a contest for high schools that would culminate in a “Yumz wagon” appearance at the winning school. “It was a good event because we worked with a real-life situation and had to give real-life solutions,” Pilkerton said. “It was an adrenalin rush because of the short amount of time we were given and the tasks that we had to do,” said Huntley’s Beschorner. Added teammate Schwartz, “We pushed creativity in a set amount of time.” “The task was huge. When we arrived, we didn’t know what product we’d be working with. My job was to keep them on track and on task. In the end, they truly embodied their test market,” said Laura Bantz, adjunct business instructor, who served as team mentor for the

I am impressed with their ideas. The Huntley ... team had good promotional ideas that set their apart,” said Matt Thelander, Yumz co-owner. Dawn Wagner, instructor of In-

It’s time to get serious about gamification

• REPOS Continued from page F1 Nationwide, lenders repossessed 43,597 homes last month, the lowest level since September 2007. Foreclosure starts rose 2 percent from February to 73,113. That’s still down 28 percent from March last year, the firm said. At the current monthly pace, completed foreclosures will total roughly 550,000 this year, down from 671,000 last year, RealtyTrac said. Even so, the number of foreclosure starts, or homes that entered the foreclosure process, edged higher for the second month in a row in March. Twelve states, including New York, Maryland and Washington saw annual increases in foreclosure starts last month. During the housing downturn, about half of the homes that entered the foreclosure process ended up as bank-owned homes that could potentially to be sold at a sharp discount, hurting the value of nearby homes. But with the housing market apparently on a sustained, if gradual, turnaround path, it’s more likely that a home entering the foreclosure process now will be able to avoid being lost to foreclosure, said Daren Blomquist, vice president at RealtyTrac. “A lot of these won’t end up as vacant bank-owned homes, dragging down the market,” he said. “These foreclosures are happening in the context of a housing market that’s recovering. They’re not a sign that the housing market is going downhill again.” As of end of March there were about 1.5 million U.S. homes in some stage of foreclosure, with 623,697 owned by lenders, according to RealtyTrac. That’s down from a peak of 2.2 million in December 2010. Most of the homes on the foreclosure path have loans that were made during the housing boom years. and early into the downturn.

Interested in accelerating workplace learning? It’s worth taking a serious look at gamification. What’s gamification? Dr. Karl Kapp, professor of Instructional technology and expert on the convergence of learning, technology and business operations, defines gamification as, “using game-based mechanics, aesthetics, and game thinking to engage, motivate action, promote learning, and solve problems.” When utilized in workplace learning, gamification takes the very essence of games – attributes such as fun, play, transparency, design, and competition – and applies them to real-world processes inside an organization. Technology research firm Gartner Inc. predicts that 70 percent of Global 2000 businesses will be managing at least one “gamified” application or system by 2014. Corporate gamification is projected to be a more than $2.8 billion business by 2016, with gamification being used in 25 percent of redesigned business processes by 2015. Still struggling to see gamification as an appropriate tool for the work-

parent but can certainly be far reaching and just as devastating. Gamification is a great way to reintroduce the value of experimentation and play to adults in the workplace. Jeanne C. Meister, co-author of “The 2020 Workplace” suggests the following guidelines for those adding gamification to their development toolkit: • What are your business goals? Successful integration begins by defining the problem that gamification should address very clearly. Determine if a standalone solution or a supplement to existing offerings is optimal. Will gamification be used to increase participation and completion of training programs? • Who’s your audience? Use the learner’s point of view as a guide to creating the optimal experience. Are you strengthening existing skill sets or introducing entirely new concepts? Meister cautions that the goal of gamification is not to manipulate target audiences, but rather to mesh behavioral science with social technologies in ways that increase collaboration and engagement levels

BUSINESS SOLUTIONS Catherine Jones place? We expect children to use play as a vehicle for learning. By experimenting with toys, which represent reality, a child is able to experiment in a simulated (imaginary) environment without negative consequences. Similarly, we understand the value of using simulation as a teaching tool in high risk occupations. An airline pilot doesn’t learn to fly by experimenting with real plane fully loaded with passengers. They first train in a simulated environment without suffering the consequences of reality. Simulation seems quite reasonable and prudent given the risks involved. Yet when it comes to the decisions that affect the well-being of companies, employees, their families and stakeholders, simulation is dismissed as trivial. Unlike a plane crash, the negative consequences for experimenting with reality may not be immediately ap-

among users. • How will you track success? Develop a plan for measuring the effectiveness of your gamification efforts before you begin. What will success look like? What behaviors should change? What will provide evidence that learning transfer has taken place? It’s high time to get in the game! Ready to give it a try? Join us at the McHenry County College Shah Center from 7:30 to 9 a.m. April 24 for The Fresh Connection Executive Briefing. This advanced web-based business simulation challenges participants to improve supply chain management, manufacturing practices, sales and operations planning. It’s about learning – and having fun doing it. Call 815-455-8593 if you’d like more information.

Jobless aid applications plummet to 346,000 WASHINGTON –The number of Americans seeking unemployment benefits fell sharply last week to a seasonally adjusted 346,000, suggesting March’s weak month of hiring may have been a temporary slowdown. Unemployment aid applications dropped by 42,000 last week, the Labor Department said Thursday. The steep decline reversed sharp gains over the previous two weeks and brought the level back to a point that signals stronger job growth. The four-week average, a less volatile measure, rose 3,000 to 358,000. The data have been volatile in the past two weeks largely because of the Easter holiday, a department spokesman said. The timing of the holiday changes from year to year. That makes it difficult to adjust for school holidays and other changes that can cause temporary layoffs. Applications had jumped

by 31,000 two weeks ago to 388,000, the highest level in four months. The unemployment rate fell to a four-year low of 7.6 percent last month, down from 7.7 percent in February. However, the rate fell only because more people stopped looking for work and were no longer counted as unemployed.

Airlines lagging in on-time performance NEW YORK – Airlines are struggling this year to get planes to the gate on time. U.S. carriers in January and February only saw 80.3 percent of their flights arrive on time, the government reported Thursday. That’s down from a record 84.9 percent during last year’s storm-free winter. Mother Nature hasn’t been as cooperative. The percent of flights canceled this February doubled to 2.4 percent from 1.2 percent in the same month in 2012. As for airports, Phoenix had the best on-time departure and

arrival rates in February while Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport had the lowest. A flight is still considered on time if it arrives within 15 minutes of its scheduled time.

March retail revenue figure inches up NEW YORK – U.S. retailers are reporting a key revenue figure rose slightly in March, as shoppers held back on spending because of the cold weather across the nation, particularly the Midwest and East Coast, and continued fears about the economy. Overall, 14 retailers reported on Thursday that revenue at stores open at least a year — a key indicator of retail health — rose an average of 0.6 percent, according to research firm Retail Metrics. Including drugstores, the number was slightly higher, up 1.5 percent. “While clearly that’s not a great number by any stretch, it could have been worse,” said Ken Perkins, president of Retail Metrics. “Wintry weather condi-

tions persisted deep into March depressing spring apparel, home and garden, and seasonal merchandise sales.” He expects April to be stronger, as the weather improves and customers respond to strong fashion trends such as colorful jeans. An earlier Easter, which meant one less selling day in March, will also help April results, he said.

30-year mortgage rate falls to 3.43 percent WASHINGTON – Average U.S. rates on fixed mortgages fell sharply this week and moved closer to historic lows, keeping home-buying and refinancing attractive. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac says the average rate for the 30-year fixed loan fell to 3.43 percent from 3.54 percent last week. That’s near the 3.31 percent reached in November, which was the lowest on records dating to 1971. The average rate on the 15year fixed mortgage dipped to 2.65 percent from 2.74 percent.

Continued from page F1 “This is only the second year hosting the Marketing Challenge and to watch local businesses like Yumz Frozen Yogurt, Studio 2015 Jewelry, Little Caesars and Jersey Mike’s give so freely of their donations and valuable time is awe inspiring,” Wagner said. “Both MCC student interns, mentors and employees that created the event, and the high school students that took the challenge were innovative and so hard working in creating realistic marketing solutions for community companies,” she said. “Every person I talked to said they loved it and can’t wait for next year’s competition.” “It was fun to see so many kids engaged in this process,” said John Barnes, Yumz marketing director. “They are motivated. They had very good ideas. I appreciate their passion and they all had unique presentations. The future of marketing is in good hands.” The 2014 competition will involve students developing a marketing plan for Little Caesars.

Virginia Woolf said, “On the outskirts of every agony sits some observant fellow who points.” It is a sad fact of bridge that it does not matter how great your bidding might be. If you do not make the contract, the opponents get points. In this deal, how should South plan the play in four hearts? West leads the spade king. East overtakes with his ace and returns his second spade. West takes this trick, cashes the club ace, and plays another club. When West’s one-spade opening bid was passed around to South, his balancing three-heart jump overcall was intermediate, showing a respectable sixcard suit and 14 to 16 highcard points. North would no doubt have bid four hearts anyway, but West’s three-spade rebid deinitely pushed him into it. East let the prevailing vulnerability dissuade him from bidding four spades. (Note that four spades doubled goes down two, minus 500.) Declarer must play the heart suit without loss. If the opponents had passed throughout, South would have taken the inesse.

(A priori, East will have the heart king 50 percent of the time, but West will have a singleton king only 13 percent of the time.) Here, though, South must remember the bidding. East passed over his partner’s opening bid and has already produced the spade ace. If he also had the heart king, he would have had seven points and would have responded. Therefore, West has the king of hearts. South should play a heart to his ace and claim when the king luckily drops. Especially when an opponent opened, always check the high-card points.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - It looks like your circumstances will improve in the year ahead. First and foremost, you could be unusually lucky in most of your moneymaking ventures, as well as generally fortunate in all of your dealings. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Commercial involvements continue to look pretty good for you, so give this area top priority, even if you have other developments calling for your attention. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Don’t let a project of personal importance be taken out of your hands. If your leadership is challenged, try to make your antagonist work with you. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Although your ambitions will be easily stimulated, the urge to achieve them might be lacking. Chances are this will be due to a lack of self-confidence. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- If you want your friends to treat you well, you must first project warmth toward them. They’ll be analyzing your level of commitment, as you’ll be checking out theirs. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- The best way to enhance your image is by letting others know how easygoing you are. One way to do that is not to take life too seriously. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You’re likely to find an opening to discuss a serious matter with a close pal. It’ll be an issue that demands attention, so you shouldn’t miss this chance. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Someone you’ve helped in the past has been looking out for your interests, even though you’ve said nothing to him or her about your troubles. Prepare for some pleasant surprises. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- This can be a very pleasant day if you take a middle-of-the-road attitude and allow destiny to take its course. You’ll know how to adjust to new circumstances with ease. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Try to spend a little time outdoors, engaging in an activity that stimulates you mentally and physically. You don’t have to engage in anything that is too strenuous, just make sure it’s fun. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- One of your greatest attributes is an ability to effectively manage others. Your pure motives and impeccable skill will be clear to your colleagues. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Associates will be impressed by the example you set: self-assured, calm and at peace with the world. It will help put others in the same frame of mind. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you are restless, a change of scenery could help immensely. Strolling through places where you can unobtrusively observe others might fill the bill.
