Report details Jacobson’s arrest Hebron president-elect says he’s innocent, was coached by police By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com HEBRON – A tipster referenced in the police report from the arrest of John Jacobson claims the Hebron village president-elect was trading crack co-

caine to college students for sexual favors. The anonymous tip, which started an investigation that eventually led to Jacobson’s arrest Jan. 15, claimed Jacobson hosted house parties each weekend with “college-aged females

who attend McHenry County College,” according to the McHenry County Sheriff’s Department report. The Northwest Herald obtained the report through a Freedom of Information Act request. Jacobson, who also has a still-pending charge of driving

under the influence of alcohol, worked in the building maintenance department at MCC until he was fired after the arrest. Jacobson, 60, who was elected this week with 61 percent of the vote over incumbent Frank Beatty, is charged with unlawful de-

livery of a controlled substance, a Class 1 felony, and unlawful possession of a controlled substance, a Class 4 felony. About three grams of crack cocaine were found in the car, police said.

Tax cap bill fails in House Franks calls defeat ‘temporary setback’ By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com House lawmakers soundly defeated a bill aimed at preventing property-tax increases in years that property values are depressed. The House voted Friday, 4365, against House Bill 89, sponsored by state Rep. Jack Franks, D-Marengo. The bill sought to forbid governments subject to the tax cap from collecting inflationary increases in years their overall assessed value decreased, except by voter referendum. Local taxing bodies are entitled on this year’s property-tax bills to a 3 percent increase over what they collected last year. While some local governments voluntarily held their levies flat, many raised their levies to capture the increase. “I’m going to keep trying – I look at this as a temporary setback,” Franks said. “This is something worth fighting for for the taxpayers.”

Sean Gohl, 27, sits in his sports-themed bedroom at the home of his parents, Trudie and Ronald Gohl in Wonder Lake. Sean Gohl, who has cerebral palsy, works at Meijer as a greeter. Sean is currently on waiting lists for multiple group homes for Misericordia and Pioneer. These group homes teach independence and provide work programs, a safe living environment and medical care.

Most adults have their own place by the time they are 27 years old, and Sean Gohl wants nothing more than to move out of his parents’ Wonder Lake home. But there are two obstacles preventing his independence: He has cerebral palsy requiring daily assistance, and a lack of local group homes that could provide those services has forced him onto an ever-growing waiting list. Adding to the issue are his aging parents, Ronald and Trudie Gohl, who fear a time is approaching

The cost of more expensive electricity On March 21, the Illinois House passed a modest pension reform bill. No entity was happier than the state’s two electricity providers. While everybody was excited the House made a small step toward fixing its biggest problem – pensions – they forgot to notice the House also passed a measure on the same day that allows ComEd and Ameren to raise electricity rates over the next decade in exchange for installing a smart-grid infrastructure. If this feels like déjå vü, that’s because it is. The power companies got the OK to raise rates in 2011 to pay for the smart-grid installation. The Illinois Commerce Commission didn’t take too kindly, according to a Crain’s Chicago Business story, and rejected three of the utilities’ requests after that initial bill passed. This new bill makes those requests law. It passed the Senate on March 14, and now awaits Gov. Pat Quinn’s veto before the Legislature overrides the veto. So those of you in electricity-aggregation-less communities will be paying

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Jason Schaumburg more soon for electricity. For those of you scoring at home, state Sens. Pam Althoff, R-McHenry, and Karen McConnaughay, R-St. Charles, voted in favor of the bill. State Sen. Dan Duffy, R-Lake Barrington, opposed. Bravo, Mr. Duffy. In the House, state Reps. David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills; Tim Schmitz, R-Batavia; Mike Tryon, R-Crystal Lake; and Barb Wheeler, R-Crystal Lake, supported the measure. Jack Franks, D-Marengo, voted no. Kudos, Mr. Franks. The Better Government Association earlier this month released a report showing how much money the power companies and their employees funneled toward state lawmakers between Jan. 1, 2012, and March 21, the date the smart-grid bill passed the House.

Some of its findings: • In that timeframe, Ameren and ComEd (including its parent company, Exelon), their employees and political action committees donated $1.36 million to lawmakers, candidates for state office and political party organizations. • Ameren was more willing to part with its money than ComEd. Ameren contributed $850,087 compared with ComEd’s $507,492. • House Minority Leader Tom Cross accepted the most money ($46,850), followed by Senate President John Cullerton ($41,500), Sen. Mike Jacobs ($41,000), House Speaker Michael Madigan ($37,000) and Senate Minority Leader Christine Radogno ($24,500). Cullerton, Jacobs and Madigan are Democrats. Cross and Radogno are Republicans. You know who was sixth on the BGA’s list? McSweeney. According to BGA, McSweeney got $22,000. A quick tour by yours truly through campaign disclosure statements could find only $16,500 in

contributions to McSweeney. Regardless, McSweeney far outpaced other lawmakers who represent McHenry County residents. From what I could find, Franks got $7,000, Schmitz received $4,500, Tryon got $4,000, Althoff received $3,500 and McConnaughay got $2,000. Duffy and Wheeler came in at zero dollars in my search. We all know the role money plays in policymaking. My stance on money and government was documented in this space last month. There’s no proof that any lawmaker was persuaded to vote for or against the smart-grid measure based on political donations, and I’m not here to suggest or insist one way or the other. I’m just here to provide the facts.

Employees at Bellman’s Jewelers in Manchester said Ronald Perley came in Thursday and was looking for an engagement ring. Police said the 52-year-old Perley picked up a ring and ran toward the door. Workers confronted him, saying they saw Perley put his hand to his mouth and swallow. Police got a search warrant and brought him to Elliot Hospital, where X-rays showed the 14-karat whitegold ring with princess-cut diamonds inside him.

Afghan Ill. got $184M attack from films, TV details emerge The ASSOCIATED PRESS

By MATTHEW LEE The Associated Press WASHINGTON – New details emerged Friday about last week’s terrorist bombing in Afghanistan that killed a young U.S. diplomat and four other Americans who were delivering textbooks to a school in the country’s south. A senior State Department official familiar with the investigation into the attack told The Associated Press that the group was walking, not driving, from a military base to the nearby school in Zabul Province when the explosion hit. Initial reports that members of the group were in vehicles, as well as subsequent media reports that they were lost, are incorrect, the official said. The official was not authorized to speak to the news media and provided the details on condition of anonymity. An FBI investigation into the attack that killed 25-yearold foreign service officer Anne Smedinghoff and the others is still preliminary. The official said on-foot travel for the group was approved because of the short distance – about 100 yards – between the base and the school compound, and was in keeping with past visits to the site, which also houses an Afghan Ministry of Agriculture office. Because of the proximity, the group would have had to get out of their vehicles at the military base, the official said. He said the group took the shortest and most direct route from the base but was told on arrival that the entrance they wanted to use, and had been used previously, no longer provided access to the school. The group was moving past the military base to another entrance to the compound at the time of the explosion, apparently from a suicide car bomber. That was followed by a second blast, apparently from a roadside bomb. The official stressed that the group was not lost, disputing at least one published account citing an eyewitness. He also said Smedinghoff’s family had been informed of the circumstances of her death immediately after Secretary of State John Kerry called them to express his condolences. Smedinghoff was from River Forest. The official said the State Department is examining the incident to determine whether it needs to make any changes in operational procedures. On Thursday, State Department spokesman Patrick Ventrell said the group had been walking to the school but could provide no additional details other than identifying the most seriously wounded of three other diplomats injured in the attack.

CHICAGO – Tax incentives to draw movie and TV productions to Illinois have led to a record $184 million in spending last year by production crews working on shows like “Chicago Fire” and “Boss,” Gov. Pat Quinn said Friday. Quinn touted the benefits of more movie and TV work in the state during a visit to the Chicago set of the science fiction film “Divergent,” which will feature Kate Winslet. Besides the money spent, Quinn said such productions also lead to hundreds of jobs. “Our talented crews, iconic shooting locations and world class sound stages and studios have helped make 2012 a banner year for the Illinois film industry,” Quinn said in a written statement. Dozens of states have competed vigorously to lure movie and TV projects away from California and New York, employing ever higher tax breaks and leading some policy experts to wonder if taxpayers are coming out ahead in such deals. In 2011, Quinn signed a 10-year extension of the Illinois Film Tax Credit, which provides a 30 percent tax credit to filmmakers

for money spent on Illinois goods and services. That includes wages paid to Illinois residents. The governor’s office says that has paved the way for more productions in Illinois, including a higher number of television shows that helped boost last year’s record spending figures. Those programs included “Chicago Fire,” ‘’Boss,” ‘’Mob Doctor” and “Underemployed.” Together, those four shows generated $92 million in spending last year, according to Quinn’s office. The previous Illinois record for yearly spending, set in 2010, was $161 million. “Divergent” began filming earlier this month at Cinespace Chicago Film Studios. The film is based on the first book of a three-book series by Chicago author Veronica Roth. The film, scheduled for release in March 2014, also will star Aaron Eckhart and Shailene Woodley. Director Neil Burger is known for “The Illusionist,” ‘’The Lucky Ones” and “Limitless.” Roth wrote the futuristic action-adventure story when she was a student at Northwestern University. It was published in May 2011.

Hike to Medicare premiums would create income brackets By RICARDO ALONSO– ZALDIVAR The Associated Press

AP photo

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry (right) greets upon his arrival Friday at Seoul military airport in Seongnam, South Korea. Kerry is traveling directly into a region bracing for a possible North Korean missile test and risking that his presence alone could spur Pyongyang into another headline-seeking provocation.

U.S. stresses limits of N. Korea’s firepower The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – On the brink of an expected North Korean missile test, U.S. officials focused on the limits of Pyongyang’s nuclear firepower Friday, trying to shift attention from the disclosure that the North Koreans might be able to launch a nuclear strike. They insisted that while the unpredictable government might have rudimentary nuclear capabilities, it has not proved it has a weapon that could reach the United States. A senior defense official said the U.S. sees a “strong likelihood” that North Korea will launch a test missile in coming days in defiance of international calls for restraint. The effort is expected to test the North’s ballistic missile technologies, not a nuclear weapon, said the official, who was granted anonymity to discuss intelligence matters. Unless the missile unexpectedly heads for a U.S. or allied target, the Pentagon does not plan to try to shoot it down, several officials said. As a precaution, the U.S. has arrayed in the Pacific a number of missile defense Navy ships, track-

ing radars and other elements of its worldwide network for shooting down hostile missiles. The tensions playing out on the Korean peninsula are the latest in a long-running drama that dates to the 1950-53 Korean War, fed by the North’s conviction that Washington is intent on destroying the government in Pyongyang and Washington’s worry that the North could, out of desperation, reignite the war by invading the South. The mood in the North Korean capital, meanwhile, was hardly so tense. Many people were in the streets preparing for the birthday April 15 of national founder Kim Il Sung – the biggest holiday of the year. Even so, this year’s big flower show in Kim’s honor features an exhibition of orchids built around mock-ups of red-tipped missiles, slogans hailing the military and reminders of perceived threats to the nation. The plain fact is that no one can be sure how far North Korea has progressed in its pursuit of becoming a full-fledged nuclear power, aside perhaps from a few people close to its new leader, Kim Jong Un.

More is known about North Korea’s conventional military firepower, and it is being heavily monitored for signs of trouble. The North has long had thousands of artillery guns positioned close enough to the border to hit Seoul with a murderous barrage on short notice. The U.S. has about 28,500 troops in the South. Concern about the North’s threatening rhetoric jumped a notch on Thursday with the disclosure on Capitol Hill that the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency believes with “moderate confidence” that the North could deliver a nuclear weapon by ballistic missile. The DIA assessment did not mention the potential range of such a strike, but it led to a push by administration officials to minimize the significance of the jarring disclosure. Secretary of State John Kerry said in Seoul on Friday “it’s inaccurate to suggest” that the North had fully tested and demonstrated its ability to deliver a nuclear weapon by ballistic missile, a message also delivered by the Pentagon and by James Clapper, the director of national intelligence and a former head of the DIA.

Gun measures put Senate Dems in bind By KEN THOMAS The Associated Press WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama’s push for tougher gun measures and expanded background checks has placed several moderate Senate Democrats facing re-election next year in a bind, forcing them to take sides on a deeply personal issue for rural voters. The choice: Either they stick with Obama and gun control advocates – and give an opening to campaign challengers and the National Rifle Association to assail them – or they stand with conservative and moderate gun owners back home worried about a possible infringement on

their rights. Five Senate Democrats – Mark Begich of Alaska, Mark Pryor of Arkansas, Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, Max Baucus of Montana and Kay Hagan of North Carolina – are seeking another term in states carried by Republican Mitt Romney last fall. For the next few weeks, at least, the spotlight will be on how they maneuver as the Senate debates gun-control legislation pushed by Democrats in response to the deadly Newtown, Conn., elementary school shooting. Two other GOP-leaning states with large numbers of gun owners – West Virginia and South Dakota – will have open seats following Democratic retirements. Repub-

licans have placed many of these states at the top of their priority lists as they try to gain six seats to win back the Senate majority. Debate begins next week on Senate legislation that would require nearly all gun buyers to submit to background checks, toughen federal laws banning illicit firearms sales and provide more money for school safety measures. The background checks are viewed by gun control advocates as the best step to prevent criminals and the mentally ill from accessing weapons. The NRA has opposed the expansion of background checks, saying it could lead to federal registries of gun owners.

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama’s plan to raise Medicare premiums for upper-income seniors would create five new income brackets to squeeze more revenue for the government from the top tiers of retirees, the administration revealed Friday. First details of the plan emerged after Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius testified to Congress on the president’s budget. As released two days earlier, the budget included only a vague description of a controversial proposal that has grown more ambitious since Obama last floated it. “Means testing” has been part of Medicare since the George W. Bush administration, but ramping it up is bound to stir controversy. Republicans are intrigued, but most Democrats don’t like the idea. The plan itself is complicated. The bottom line is not:

more money for the government. Obama’s new budget calls for raising $50 billion over 10 years by increasing monthly “income-related” premiums for outpatient and prescription drug coverage. The comparable number last year was $28 billion over the decade. Currently, single beneficiaries making more than $85,000 a year and couples earning more than $170,000 pay higher premiums. Obama’s plan would raise the premiums themselves and also freeze adjustments for inflation until 1 in 4 Medicare recipients were paying the higher charges. Right now, the higher monthly charges hit only about 1 in 20 Medicare recipients. House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wis., asked Sebelius about the new proposal on Friday, noting that it would raise significantly more revenue. Part of the reason for the additional federal revenue is that Obama’s 2014 budget projects an additional year

of money from the proposals. The rest of the answer has to do with the administration’s new brackets. Starting in 2017, there would be nine income brackets on which the higher premiums would be charged. There are only four now. If the proposal were in effect today, a retiree making $85,000 would pay about $168 a month for outpatient coverage, compared to $146.90 currently. Under current law, the next bump up doesn’t come until an individual makes more than $107,000. Under Obama’s plan, it would come when that person crosses the line at $92,333. If the plan were in effect today, the beneficiary would pay about $195 a month for outpatient coverage under Medicare’s Part B, rather than $146.90. The top income step – currently more than $214,000 – would be lowered to $196,000. And individuals in the new top tier would pay 90 percent of the cost of their outpatient coverage, compared to 80 percent currently.

for higher taxes on the wealthy in the budget he released Wednesday, paid $112,214 in taxes last year, putting his effective federal tax rate at 18.4 percent. The Obamas donated almost one-quarter of their income to charity, helping to lower their tax bill, according to tax returns released by the White House. Most of the $608,611 that the Obamas reported in

adjusted gross income came from the president’s salary, as he reported $394,840 in wages. An additional $258,772 came from royalties from his books, including his 1995 memoir “Dreams From My Father,” his 2006 political book, “The Audacity of Hope,” and a 2010 children’s book, “Of Thee I Sing: A Letter to My Daughters.”

8NATION BRIEF Obama earned less in 2012, pays $112K in taxes WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama made less in 2012 than in any other year since taking office, with about 40 percent of the nearly $609,000 in income that he and first lady Michelle Obama reported coming from book sales.

8NATION BRIEFS 'Fetal pain' measure sent to N. Dakota governor BISMARCK, N.D. – A measure that would outlaw abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy based on the disputed premise that a fetus can by then feel pain was sent to the North Dakota governor Friday. The North Dakota Legislature is taking a multi-pronged approach this session in trying to make North Dakota the most restrictive state in the nation in which to get the procedure, with Gov. Jack Dalrymple already signing three measures into law, including one that bans abortions when a heartbeat can be detected – as early as six weeks into a pregnancy and before some women even know they’re pregnant. Lawmakers’ intent is to challenge the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade ruling that legalized abortion up until viability, usually at 22 to 24 weeks.

Discharge recommended for Navy officer in Conn. GROTON, Conn. – A former submarine commander who faked his death to end an extramarital affair should be honorably discharged from the Navy, a panel of officers recommended Friday after a daylong hearing in which the officer said he accepted “full and total accountability” for his behavior. Cmdr. Michael P. Ward II, a married 43-year-old, sent his mistress in Virginia an email in July posing as a fictitious co-worker named Bob and saying Ward had died unexpectedly. Ward was relieved of his duties aboard the USS Pittsburgh in August a week after he’d taken command and has received a letter of reprimand for adultery and other military violations. After testimony from Ward’s former superior officers, colleagues and shipmates, Ward, in his dress blues, acknowledged to the panel that he had had an affair and sent the bogus email to the woman in an effort to end it.

Brits, Americans feud over park, tongues in cheeks PORTLAND, Ore. – The British and the Americans are quarreling – albeit with tongues in cheek – over territory again, this time over who has the world’s smallest park. One, in Portland, Ore., is essentially a concrete planter, 2-feet in diameter, with soil and some vegetation, and the Guinness Book of World Records says it’s the smallest. The other is about 5,000 miles away, in England. Those guys don’t claim to have a physically smaller park – theirs is 15 feet by 30 feet. But they are disputing whether Portland’s is a park at all.

Judge denies severance deal for airline CEO DALLAS – A federal bankruptcy judge has at least temporarily blocked a proposed $20 million severance payment for the CEO of American Airlines as part of the company’s merger with US Airways. The judge ruled Thursday that the proposed payment to CEO Tom Horton exceeded limits that Congress set for bankruptcy cases in 2005. A spokesman for American said Friday that the airlines would push ahead with their merger and deal with Horton’s compensation later. The U.S. trustee’s office, part of the Department of Justice, had objected to Horton’s compensation. Judge Sean Lane declined to approve the payment during a hearing on March 27, but he didn’t issue a ruling until Thursday. Although Lane denied the severance under bankruptcy law, he left open the possibility of a payment as part of American’s final reorganization plan, which has not yet been filed. American Airlines spokesman Mike Trevino said the airline intends to address Horton’s compensation that way.

Canada police reopen investigation of alleged rape and bullied after the photo went viral online. Her death on Sunday has been compared to similar cases in the United States, including a 15-year-old California girl who killed herself after her family says she was sexually assaulted by friends and a photo surfaced online. Police had concluded there were no grounds to charge anyone in the Canadian case after an initial yearlong investigation. But the RCMP in Halifax now says a person who provided new information is willing to verify

By ROB GILLIES The Associated Press TORONTO – Authorities are reopening the case of a teen who hanged herself after she was allegedly raped and bullied for months, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said Friday. The police force’s Nova Scotia office said it had received new and credible information in the case of 17-year-old Rehtaeh Parsons, whose family said she was photographed while being sexually assaulted in 2011

who the suspects are and cooperate with investigators, who have come under public criticism for their handling of the case. RCMP Cpl. Scott MacRae said he could not provide any details about who the source is or what the new information is. He would not say whether they were a witness. He said it’s too early to speculate if there will be charges. “We’re certainly encouraged by this,” he said. MacRae said Parson’s family had been informed,

and they “welcome the re-opening of the file.” The Nova Scotia government came under criticism after Justice Minister Ross Landry initially ruled out the possibility of reviewing how the RCMP handled allegations that Parsons was sexually assaulted. Landry changed course this week, saying he had asked senior officials for options to review how the Mounties and the Public Prosecution Service concluded they could not file charges.

A group reported to be the cyber-activist hackers Anonymous released a statement Friday saying it has seen “several public statements” from one of the alleged rapists acknowledging that he had sex with Parsons while she was intoxicated and that she threw up during the assault. The group had earlier vowed to release the names of four males investigated in the alleged sexual assault if the RCMP did not reopen its investigation. A funeral service for Parsons is scheduled for today.

8WORLD BRIEFS Taliban attack kills at least 13 Afghan soldiers KABUL, Afghanistan – Taliban militants stormed an Afghan army outpost on Friday, killing more than a dozen soldiers in an area that is a major infiltration route for insurgents crossing the mountainous border between Afghanistan and Pakistan.

McHenry County’s 4 GOP reps voted yes • BILL

Continued from page A1 About 60 percent of House Democrats and half of House Republicans voted against the bill, which was strongly fought by local government lobbying groups. House Minority Leader Tom Cross, R-Oswego, voted “present.” All four of McHenry County’s GOP representatives – Mike Tryon, Barbara Wheeler, David McSweeney and Tim Schmitz – voted in favor of the bill. 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 collar 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 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 their values had plummeted with the bursting of the housing bubble. It cleared the House on the second try, but stalled in the Senate. Twenty-five of Friday’s no votes – 19 Democrats and six Republicans – came from lawmakers who had voted in favor last time. At least four other bills – three in the House and one in the Senate – aim to freeze what local taxing bodies can levy for the next three to five years. But all four of them, one of which was filed by McSweeney, are languishing in committee and are considered dead. Government lobbying groups that fought Franks’ bill include the Illinois Municipal League, the Illinois Association of School Boards and its related agencies, and Metro Counties of Illinois, to which the McHenry County Board belongs. Local governments pay their dues to these lobbying groups with taxpayer dollars. The County Board is one of several governments that voluntarily held their levy flat to reject the 3 percent increase. The groups argued that the legislation would hinder governments’ ability to keep up with rising costs of supplies, as well as unfunded state mandates and other expenses. Government lobbying groups typically oppose legislation that would lower members’ revenues, increase their expenses or take away local control. 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.

The Taliban are stepping up their attacks this spring, analysts say, as they try to position themselves for power ahead of national elections and the planned withdrawal of most U.S. and other foreign combat troops by the end of 2014. The persistent violence has undermined confidence in the ability of President Hamid

Karzai’s forces to take over the country’s security. The attack began at dawn in Nari district of Kunar province, a volatile area that serves as a pathway for insurgents traveling to Afghanistan from their sanctuaries in northwestern Pakistan. Hostilities have surged as weather improves, allowing

easier movement through the remote area.

Syrian troops widen offensive in border areas AL-QASR, LEBANON – Syrian soldiers backed by warplanes battled rebels for control of strategic hilltop villages near the Lebanese border on Friday, as government troops step up

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

counterattacks against opposition forces threatening regime supply lines on the country’s frontiers. Bomb blasts and shots fired into the air to mourn a fallen Syrian government soldier could be heard on the Lebanese side of the border as fighting raged around Qusair, a contested central Syrian town near a

key highway between Damascus and the coast. The battles there came as government forces launched a second offensive against rebels in the province of Daraa on the Jordanian border, where the opposition has been making steady advances in recent weeks.

I’m not going on one but the Golfer in My Life and Son headed out bright and early yesterday APRIL 14 morning for Augusta.

All you can eat pancakes, suggesting that Sirius would be broadcasting it sausage, orange juice, coffee, and milk will be available.

This is the longest trip the Golfer and Son have taken together. They usually make the trip to Ann Arbor for Michigan football games in a day but never this many hours in the car at one time. Oh, to have been a fly on the backseat window. Son is pretty quiet but when he and the Golfer have nothing but time... boy, can they talk! The topics started out sports-related, then ventured into Ronald Reagan and Abraham Lincoln (they don’t think that Kentucky should claim him!), and circled back to the Cubs, Mariners and basketball in general. On a side note, Son did take Michigan’s loss on Monday very well. But by Monday night, all of us were sick of the announcers and the poor officiating. Son kept joking, “Jim Nantz, don’t make me have to find you at the Masters.” Anyways, throughout the day, the boys checked in with their current location and weather. By their laughter over the phone, I could tell they were having a great time already and they hadn’t even crossed the Georgia state line. So, what do I have planned with this free time? I know what I should do: clean the fridge, finish swapping out winter clothes for my spring wardrobe, start watching “Downton Abbey” and go grocery shopping. More realistically, this weekend is going to be following the Masters, shopping with Daughter, reading “Gone Girl,” hopefully catching a “Law and Order” marathon and trying to find a quinoa recipe I actually like. If anyone has suggestions on that, please email me. Have a good weekend! Autumn

Jacobson due in court May 22 • REPORT Continued from page A1 Given his recent election victory, the McHenry County’s State’s Attorney Office says Hebron politics won’t play a factor in their decisions on Jacobson’s case. “We will treat him like any other similarly situated defendant,” Assistant State’s Attorney Michael Combs said. State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi said he will not request that the embattled president-elect step down. “The people of Hebron selected him as mayor, and I wouldn’t want to interject our opinion into the democratic process,” Bianchi said. After learning that the Northwest Herald had obtained the police report, Jacobson said he was coached by police the evening he was pulled over. He again said he was innocent and that po-

lice told him they’d “make it go away” if he told him what they wanted to hear. “I said stuff that’s in that police report because they told me if you say things we want, we’ll make this disappear – all this stuff,” Jacobson said. The report says Jacobson’s “demeanor immediately changed” when police asked to search his car after stopping him for speeding Jan. 15. When asked whether the K-9 would find anything in the car, Jacobson said he’d lent the vehicle to a man the previous day, and that the

Report shows Illinois ranks 42nd in spending • HELP Continued from page A1 the bottom nationally in funding for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities – a problem that has tightened budgets of local agencies scrambling to provide more with less. According to the most recent State of the States in Developmental Disabilities report, an annual ranking of the states by the University of Colorado and University of Illinois at Chicago, Illinois ranks 42nd in spending. “Observations from the data we have collected for more than 30 years show that Illinois has never prioritized support for people with developmental disabilities and their families, period,” University of Colorado professor David Braddock said. “The cumulative effect from that has led to a service-delivery system that is starved for resources to serve those people in need.” Consequently, Braddock recommends a statewide summit where solutions are identified over one-, three-, five- and 10-year periods. “The fundamental problem is a lack of prioritization,” he said. “There needs to be other sources of resources identified.” The county has more than 5,000 residents with developmental disabilities, according to 2010 Census data. About 935 of those residents are receiving group-home placement, respite and home-based services, as well as other support. The statewide waiting list for parents and caregivers seeking assistance in caring for the disabled also has reached more than 22,500, according to the Prioritization of Urgency of Need for Services database. To receive funding for residential services, a disabled adult must meet state crisis criteria, which includes having become homeless, having been abused or neglected, or having incurred a complete loss of caregivers or parents. Before reaching adulthood, early intervention is offered to anyone under age 3 with a delay in development. Those children often receive the appropriate intervention, and are able to enter the school system, said Cindy

Sullivan, executive director of Options and Advocacy for McHenry County, which has 550 children in its early intervention program. Adolescents and teens with lifelong disabilities, such as autism, cerebral palsy and Down syndrome, are eligible for special education through local school districts, which ends when they reach the age of 22. Once developmentally disabled children reach that age, that is when things begin to fall apart, Sullivan said. “They graduate to nothing because there are no state mandates,” she said. “If you get lucky, you get pulled from the state database, and it is like winning the lottery.” Eighteen local residents recently were pulled from the database and selected to receive placement, but there are no vacancies in any of the 12 group homes, Sullivan added. “They’ve hit the jackpot, but we have no place to put them,” she said. “We need more group homes in McHenry County.” The Pioneer Center for Human Services operates several group homes for the developmentally disabled and works with Options and Advocacy for Placement. When Executive Director Patrick Maynard took over at Pioneer Center more than a year ago, the nonprofit agency was owed more than $4 million from the state as part of a $14 million budget. That forced the organization to spend down its reserves to three and a half weeks remaining. The state still owes Pioneer Center about $3 million. “The state’s level of reimbursement rate hasn’t increased for more than six years,” Maynard said. “Everything else has gone up, and many of our peers are in dire straits. We have to find money elsewhere.” The lack of state funding also has created a competition among similar organizations, Maynard said. “Everyone is very aggressive in trying to find more resources,” he said. “Organizations are failing to provide quality services, and if all of a sudden you have to chase dollars to survive, you may chase dollars that are outside of your mission.”

man uses marijuana and cocaine, according to the report. On Thursday, he admitted there was cocaine in the car but said it belonged to someone who’d borrowed his car the previous day, or to a man that person had picked up. In the copy of the report provided to the Northwest Herald, the Sheriff’s Office has redacted much of the dialogue between police and Jacobson. “They said, ‘You tell us what we want to hear, .... we’ll make it go away,’ ” Jacobson said. “So that’s what I did.” Jacobson is due in court May 22. If convicted of a felony, he would be removed from his elected position, according to the Illinois Municipal Code. However, he would be eligible to serve if acquitted or convicted of a misdemeanor charge.

I Lost 42 Pounds! First I started trying to lose weight on my own and I couldn’t. Then I started taking the HCG drops and I lost a couple pounds, maybe 8-10 pounds. It was a success but not the results I wanted. I wanted to lose about 40. I heard about The Medical Weight Loss HCG Injections. It took me 3 months and I lost 42 pounds. It just came off. I felt awesome – I had more energy!

8SKETCH VIEW

Duo’s bravery deserves praise The Northwest Herald Editorial Board offers this weeks thumbs up and thumbs down: Thumbs up: To Randall Ho and Daniel Hibbeler. When we drive past a crash on the roadway, too often the instinct is to get by as quickly as possible. On Wednesday morning, one person’s life was likely saved by a pair of men who didn’t sit back and watch. Ho and Hibbeler heard or saw the aftermath of a crash in an unincorporated area near Woodstock. They were able to free Deborah Furstenau from the vehicle she was trapped in minutes before her vehicle was engulfed in flames. For that, we commend their initiative and bravery. Thumbs down: To the 171,107 registered voters in McHenry County who decided to stick their heads in the sand rather than take a few minutes of their time to decide who should lead their municipalities, school boards, townships, etc. Only 32,955 of McHenry County’s 204,062 registered voters cast ballots in Tuesday’s Consolidated Municipal Election, a pathetic 16 percent turnout rate. That nonvoting number doesn’t count the thousands more who haven’t bothered to register. These folks shouldn’t complain when their local government does something they don’t like. Thumbs up: To the United Way of Greater McHenry County for working for nine years to bring 2-1-1 services to the county. The 24/7, nonemergency number connects callers with basic needs such as food, shelter, rent and utility assistance. It also provides information on Medicare and Medicaid, medical information, and other physical and mental health resources, as well as for job support and for people with disabilities. The number became available Thursday, and we hope residents take advantage of having this service. Thumbs down: To the six-month jail sentence for former and now disgraced McHenry police officer Dale Hojnacki, who admitted to stealing more than $3,700 from drug evidence and stealing painkillers and marijuana from evidence bags. Hojnacki will lose his police pension, as he should, but he deserved prison for breathtakingly stupid actions that jeopardized the integrity of McHenry’s criminal investigations. McHenry County Judge Sharon’s Prather’s sentence of a few months in jail and restitution does not send much of a message, nor does the punishment fit the crime. Thumbs up: To school boards across northern Illinois, including District 300, for rejecting a request from Illinois Virtual Learning Solutions to establish online charter school with taxpayer money. The company that would provide administration and curriculum – K12 – has a troubling track record. Our tax dollars should not be used to fund an out-of-state company that’s under investigation in Florida and has a substandard record of reaching education benchmarks.

8HOW CONGRESS VOTED A look at this week’s major votes in Congress and how those who represent McHenry County voted:

Debate on gun legislation The purpose: A bill to ensure that all individuals who should be prohibited from buying a firearm are listed in the national instant criminal background check system and require a background check for every firearm sale, and for other purposes. The vote: Cloture on the motion to proceed agreed to in the Senate on Thursday by eight votes – 68 voted “yes,” 31 voted “no” and one didn’t vote. Local representation: U.S. Sens. Dick Durbin (D) and Mark Kirk (R) voted “yes.” Source: New York Times’ Inside Congress website

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Weekend In Woodstock To the Editor: Foreign exchange students from around the world descended upon Woodstock for a weekend of fun and cultural exchange. The weekend was made possible by the generosity of the Woodstock Noon Rotary Club. The Rotary arranged transportation, accommodations and entertainment for the exchange students. I would like to say thank you to the families who hosted the students, the Woodstock North High School Interact Club, Wayne’s Lanes and Redeemer Lutheran Church. Their support made Weekend in Woodstock a fun and memorable time for all the exchange students. The Rotary International Exchange program offers opportunities for students to spend one year in another country, learning about the culture, attending school and living with an average family. The Rotary exchange program promotes peace and understanding by bridging the cultural gap and developing lifelong friendships. My life has been enriched. Thank you, Woodstock Rotary. Lynn Fiala Huntley

Create your own holiday To the Editor: Don’t steal the significance of the names of Christmas and Easter from me.

For nearly 2,000 years, Christmas and Easter have been recognized and remembered as God’s expression of His love for all mankind and His redemption and eternal life for all who would believe. It is an eternal truth to be passed down from one generation to the next and provides hope, comfort and assurance daily and for the future. A tremendous “reason” to celebrate and remember. It is understandable, however, for those who do not choose to believe, that these days would hold no value or meaning and certainly no cause to celebrate or remember. For this reason, I would like to make a suggestion: a day for you to celebrate. Create your own holiday. Name it what you will. There are 363 additional dates available. You should have no problem. Peter Bianchini Harvard

No more preschool cuts To the Editor: Although we will never be able to eliminate crime completely, we do know a program that shows proven crime-prevention results: preschool. High-quality preschool programs not only prepare students for school, but also give them a strong start in other ways. Over the past few decades, researchers have followed former

preschool participants and a control group from the same neighborhood, and researchers recorded amazing results in one study of the Perry Preschool Program. When they checked back with the two groups at age 40, the study participants who did not attend the program were twice as likely to be arrested for violent crimes and 85 percent more likely to have been sentenced to prison or jail. In addition to these crimeprevention benefits, the group that attended preschool was less likely to abuse drugs and alcohol and more likely to graduate high school and obtain further education. The Illinois General Assembly certainly has a tough road ahead in deciding the budget for next year. Preschool for All, the state-funded preschool program, has taken quite a hit, with about 22,000 slots being eliminated for 3- and 4-yearolds in the past few years. McHenry County has weathered the cuts fairly well. However, only one out of four kids from families of modest means here are enrolled

Prudent banking To the Editor: The recent Cyprus crisis, where the depositors in the Cyprus bank are having their deposits seized in order to bail out speculators, is a policy that was first laid out on Dec. 12 in a jointly authored statement by the Bank of England and the FDIC. Will the FDIC raid the deposits in American banks in order to keep the hopelessly bankrupt financial oligarchy alive while tossing everyone else on the rubble heap? My concern is that the answer is yes, unless enough people demand our congressmen support the Return to Prudent Banking Act (HR129). A similar bill was introduced into the Senate. Nicholas C. Kockler Woodstock

Congress’ Notorious B.I.G. agenda just might pass in ’13 That sound you’re hearing may be the cracking of gridlock in Washington. Bipartisan bills on three of the big issues of 2013 – the budget, immigration and guns – could pass Congress this spring. If the B.I.G. agenda goes through, the public will cheer, providing incentives for politicians to do more. It would also go some way toward rescuing our system from being the embarrassment it is now. The key to getting anything done is the combination of an inside game (cutting deals behind closed doors) and an outside game (rallying supporters, running blistering ads). This week, Sens. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and Pat Toomey, R-Pa., showed Washington how to legislate on guns. Both have “A” grades from the National Rifle Association (Manchin was even shown firing a rifle in a 2010 campaign ad) but enough sense to know that requiring comprehensive background checks before gun purchases is an idea whose time has come. More

than 90 percent of the public supports background checks; the NRA did, too, back in 1999. The deal won the enthusiastic support of President Obama and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. It had the backing of enough conservatives to defeat an attempted filibuster; the Senate voted, 68-31, to begin debate next week on a measure that would expand background checks to the 40 percent of gun sales that are unregulated. Pessimists say background checks will fail in the House, where the NRA has a near-stranglehold on the Republican majority. But that fails to account for the new order of battle. Supporters of background checks have put a couple of dozen swing district House members on notice: If you oppose this bill, winning your primary against a Republican extremist won’t mean much because you’ll be in deep trouble in the general election. To paraphrase Samuel Johnson, nothing so concentrates the mind as the prospect of millions of dollars of ads featuring the parents of slain

VIEWS Jonathan Alter Newtown, Conn., children denouncing you. After the background-check bill becomes law, get ready for comprehensive immigration reform. It probably won’t face a filibuster or sustained opposition, even from the most right-wing Republicans. That’s because elections have consequences. All Republicans now know that they must do a better job of reaching out to Hispanics or they will go the way of the Whig Party. It helps that the national climate is favorable for reform. The fever of U.S. nativism spikes from time to time before subsiding. Right now, it happens to be in check. The hardest nut to crack might be the budget, though there was progress on that front this week, too. Republicans were sure that Obama was a Paleolithic Democrat who would never touch entitle-

ments. He called their bluff in his budget by proposing $230 billion in savings by recalculating the way cost-of-living adjustments are assessed for entitlement programs, by using the chained consumer price index. Predictably, progressives denounced the idea. The more intriguing reaction was from the right. First, Oregon Rep. Greg Walden, who leads the Republicans’ 2014 campaign efforts, told CNN that Obama was “going after seniors.” This aroused Democratic fears that Republicans would once again pander to the elderly, as they did in 2010 by airing misleading ads saying that Obama was cutting Medicare by $500 billion to pay for the Affordable Care Act. But the politics of entitlements are changing. Even as Walden’s view was endorsed by Bill O’Reilly on Fox News, former Rep. Chris Chocola, R, president of the influential Club for Growth, asked Walden to “clarify” his opposition to chained CPI – which is politicianspeak for “retract it now.”

“Greg Walden doesn’t seriously oppose even the most modest of reforms to Social Security, right?” Chocola asked. “With nearly $100 trillion in unfunded liabilities, the last thing Republicans should attack the Democrats for is for making the most minor reforms to our entitlement programs.” Republican confusion on entitlements gives Obama an opening for a divide-and-conquer strategy. By making the budget and entitlement debate more fluid – less dependent on whether House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, can hold his caucus – the president now has more options for finding a “good bargain,” if not a “grand” one, either in the next few weeks or when the debt ceiling has to be raised again later in the year. Budget. Immigration. Guns. The Notorious B.I.G. agenda could very well become law in 2013, defying our expectations for political paralysis once again.

Contractor pleads guilty Kiferbaum faces prison time for role in aborted Mercy hospital project By KEVIN P. CRAVER

Jacob Kiferbaum could face more than two years in prison after pleading guilty to attempted extortion.

kcraver@shawmedia.com The contractor who offered a kickback in exchange for getting the contract to build a new hospital in Crystal Lake has pleaded guilty in an amended deal. Jacob Kiferbaum pleaded guilty Wednesday in federal court to attempted extortion

for telling the administrator of a Naperville hospital that the state would not approve

its plans for a new hospital unless his firm was awarded the construction contract. Kiferbaum is the last defendant to be sentenced as part of Operation Board Games, the federal corruption investigation that resulted in the 2011 conviction of former Democratic Gov. Rod Blagojevich. Kiferbaum could face slightly more than

two years in prison when sentenced July 17. He first pleaded guilty in 2005, but his sentencing had been been postponed over the years in the event that prosecutors needed him to testify against other defendants. He was never called to do so. Janesville, Wis.-based Mercy Health System announced plans in 2003 to

build a 70-bed hospital at Route 31 and Three Oaks Road in Crystal Lake. But the Illinois Health Facilities Planning Board, the agency in charge at the time of granting permission to build hospitals, voted 8-0 against the plan.

RYSTAL LAKE – Despite a projected high of just 46 degrees Saturday, outdoor enthusiasts are expected to break out the boats this weekend at Three Oaks Recreation Area.

Saturday marks the opening weekend of marina rentals at Three Oaks Recreation Area, and after a cold and lengthy winter, Crystal Lake Deputy City Manager Eric Helm said people are ready to get out of the house and onto the water. “People have cabin fever,” Helm said. “We have such a short season in Illinois to enjoy the outdoors. People are anxious to get out there.” Beginning at 6:30 a.m. Saturday, patrons will be able to rent paddleboats, canoes, kayaks, sailboats and rowboats. Crews brought in boats and other equipment Friday

in preparation. Saturday also marks the beginning of the popular spring fishing season. A recent Department of Illinois Natural Resources study found muskellunge, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, yellow bass, rock bass, channel catfish, northern pike, walleye and panfish in the Three Oaks Recreation Area lakes. Helm said he expects a good turnout over the weekend, but the larger crowds won’t arrive until school lets out in June. The marina has been an attraction to the Chicago

It took just 30 minutes for the 1928 summer home to come down, which was completed by Streamline Builders Inc. The company plans to build a more energy-efficient house on the same property. Builders are scheduled to start work in July on a story-and-a-half home, with an A-frame and trapezoid windows that offer a “rustic look,” Streamline Builders Inc. President Bret Jones

house was unable to rehab and wasn’t worth trying to transform to meet today’s

standards,” Jones said. The home, which has been unoccupied for more than two years, didn’t meet basic energy codes and had improper insulation and siding, Jones said. Construction on the new house, at 1715 River Terrace Drive, should be finished by the end of November. It will be a two-bed, two-bath “wilderness house,” Jones said.

Several officials sentenced for corruption • CORRUPTION Continued from page B1 The board concluded the proposed facility was too small and too close to other hospitals. Mercy went back in April 2004 before the board, which changed its mind about its previous intent to deny and approved the project by one vote. But that one vote sparked suspicions of corruption – one member had voted “present” before fellow board member Stuart Levine went up to him and whispered, “Tony wants this done today.” Federal prosecutors later detailed that “Tony” was former Blagojevich fundraiser Antoin “Tony” Rezko, who planned to split a $1.5 million kickback from Kiferbaum with Levine.

At a glance Jacob Kiferbaum is just one of several officials to be convicted after a federal corruption investigation called Operation Board Games. n Former Gov. Rod Blagojevich started a 14-year sentence in March 2012 at a low-security federal prison in Littleton, Colo. n Antoin “Tony” Rezko was sentenced in 2011 to 10 ∏ years for corruption, minus almost four years for time served. n Stuart Levine received a reduced sentence of 5 ∏ years for cooperating with prosecutors. n William Cellini was sentenced to one year at a federal prison in Terre Haute, Ind.

Mercy officials were never charged with any wrongdoing, but a McHenry County judge threw out the planning board’s approval of the project. Mercy has made subsequent attempts to build a hospital at the Crystal Lake location, which the successor authority, the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board, has denied.

Blagojevich was one of 15 people convicted as part of Operation Board Games. He began serving his 14-year sentence in March 2012 at a low-security federal prison in Littleton, Colo. Rezko was sentenced in 2011 to 10 ∏ years for corruption, minus almost four years for time served. A judge sentenced Levine last year to a re-

duced sentence of 5 ∏ years for his cooperation with prosecutors. While prosecutors never called Kiferbaum or Rezko to testify, Levine’s testimony was essential to the convictions of Blagojevich, Rezko and several other Operation Board Games defendants. The final conviction to come from the investigation was that of former Republican powerbroker William Cellini. He began serving his one-year sentence in January at a federal prison in Terre Haute, Ind. – the same prison where former Republican Gov. George Ryan served 5 ∏ years for corruption. Blagojevich was the seventh Illinois governor to be indicted, and first to be impeached and removed from office.

Applications accepted through month’s end • DIRECTOR Continued from page B1 pay him $110,000 a year, according to DeKalb County Board meeting minutes. He is scheduled to start his new job on Monday. Stefan earned $125,000 a year in his Lake in the Hills position, Village Administrator Gerald Sagona said. Stefan had been with the

village for more than a decade, Sagona said. Sagona said Stefan was at the high end of the of the salary range for the position. The Village Board on Thursday appointed Assistant Finance Director Robert Miller as the interim finance director while the search goes on. Miller, who earns $92,000 a year, will receive a 10 percent increase in pay during the interim period.

Miller previously has filled in for an interim basis during a medical leave of absence, Sagona wrote in a memo to the Village Board. The village is accepting applications through the end of the month. “We like to move quickly to find a replacement,” Sagona said. The village is looking for someone with at least six years of progressive munici-

pal finance experience, who also is a certified public accountant, Sagona said. “We’re looking for somebody with strong management skills, ability to keep the books balanced, creative thinking will be beneficial,” Sagona said. “We’re interested in getting the best individual in the position.” Sagona said Stefan was not offered the opportunity to stay.

Saturday, April 13, 2013 • Page B5 LOCAL SHOWTIMES

ON SCREEN NOW

“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 Northwest Herald

“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 Associated Press

“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

expect a beat-by-beat remake. 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.

RATINGS

“42” HHH

HHHH - Excellent HHH - Recommended HH - Not recommended H - Awful 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, The Associated Press

“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 scratch), this film retains the five-youthsin-a-cabin premise, but renames the characters and changes some relationships to ensure we don’t

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,

Northwest Herald

“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, Northwest

Herald

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 Edward-Bella-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,

Teen resists conforming Dear Abby: I’m a 14-yearold girl. I don’t understand why adults tell me to be an independent thinker, to embrace myself, and then put me down for not conforming. Why is it outrageous to come to your own conclusions, speculate, challenge accepted ideas or find your own faith? It would be easier to quietly nod an empty head and smile to please our parents and the adults who influence kids, so they can enjoy superficial satisfaction for how “well” they have raised us. Should I deny myself as an individual and be pulled

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips along, or is it better to stay quiet and just be who everyone expects you to be? – Inde-

pendent Thinker In Florida Dear Independent Thinker: Independent thinkers are the people who have contributed the most to society. Our most important scientific discoveries were conceived by individuals who chose not to accept conventional thinking. The same is true

for religion – Jesus was an independent thinker. I’m not sure what kind of conversation you feel the adults in your life are trying to discourage. But people who are deeply committed to their religious faith can feel offended or threatened if their beliefs are challenged. Even though you are an independent thinker, you should be respectful of the beliefs of others.

Incredible Driving With Incredible Fuel Economy Is No Longer A Dream...It’s A Mazda

I both have quick tempers. Before we know it, a simple observation turns into an argument. Any advice for keeping our conversations civil? Dear Reader: Everyone gets angry from time to time, but anger comes more easily to some people. Two married friends, call them Kevin and Jane, recently recounted the following exchange to me: As Kevin was finishing up a hectic day at work, Jane rang and asked him to pick up milk for the kids on the way home. “I’ll do my best,” he told her. But the store was closed by the time Kevin got there, and he arrived home empty-handed. His wife, who also had a hectic day at work, became upset and responded, “But you said you would get it.” “No, I said I’d try,” said Kevin apologetically. The outcome of this exchange could have gone badly. You can imagine tempers rising and a vicious spat to follow. In fact, Jane replied, “We’re both exhausted. The kids won’t starve. Let’s have dinner.” With those few words, she communicated to her husband nothing mattered more than the harmony

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff between them. Interactions like this happen every day. With each interaction comes an opportunity to minimize anger and create a positive outcome. The key is to convey information peacefully and respectfully. Remember how we say something is as important as what we say. If you speak with anger or contempt, a simple disagreement can turn into a huge argument. Instead, try talking calmly and respectfully. Taking a “time-out” when things start to get heated is really important. Even if you are justified in being angry, there’s a real chance anger will cause you to do something you regret and hurt someone you love. Taking a time-out tells your partner you are interested in his or her point of view, and you value and respect them. It also signals they should consider why you got angry, and whether there was any basis for it that could have been avoided.

Think back to Kevin and Jane’s exchange over the milk. Fortunately, Jane stopped, looked and listened. She recognized her own anger, but also Kevin’s effort. She observed he felt bad, and she quickly backed down from anger. An incident that could have escalated into a full-blown argument ended instead with a peaceful family dinner. To learn many more strategies for recognizing and controlling anger, read “Outsmarting Anger” by Harvard Medical School’s Dr. Joe Shrand, with Leigh M. Devine. (You can learn more about this book at AskDoctorK.com.) Besides the damage anger can do to relationships, there’s growing evidence anger is just plain bad for your health. You’ve probably heard about people who get heart attacks from having “Type A personalities” – from being harddriving and perfectionistic. There’s a measure of truth to that, but anger is even more of a factor in bringing on a heart attack.

Lindsay Lohan showed up late for the Hollywood premiere of “Scary Movie 5.” The 26-year-old actress got a kiss from co-star Charlie Sheen in front of photographers, then told reporters on the arrivals line: “I’m taking care of myself.” After striking a plea deal in her most recent court case, the troubled actress is set to report to three months of locked rehab next month. She arrived about 20 minutes after the scheduled start of Thursday night’s premiere screening.

No settlement for Kardashian Attorneys did not reach a settlement in Kim Kardashian’s divorce case after settlement negotiations that were attended by the reality star but not her estranged husband Kris Humphries. Humphries’ attorneys declined to comment on settlement discussions Friday but said a May 6 trial date remains. A judge sealed settlement discussions, but any agreement would have been put on the record after the hearing. Kardashian was flanked by deputies as she left the courthouse shortly around noon. The reality star wants a divorce to end her 72-day marriage to Humphries, but the NBA player wants it annulled. He claims the marriage was based on fraud, which he would have to prove at trial. Humphries, a power forward for the Brooklyn Nets, has not yet laid out his specifics to support his fraud claim, but his former attorney has said Humphries wants an annulment because of his belief that Kardashian only married him because of her reality show. Kardashian and her lawyer have denied the accusation. The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star arrived under heavy security and was brought into the courtroom through a back entrance. Her hair was tied back in a ponytail and she kept her hands crossed on her lap while she listened to Judge Hank Goldberg explain to reporters that the hearing would be closed.

Tiger Woods reacts after his fairway shot on the 15th hole hit the pin and rolled into the water during the Masters on Friday in Augusta, Ga.

THE MASTERS

Day leads after Tiger falters late By BARRY SVRLUGA The Washington Post AUGUSTA, GA. – Here was Tiger Woods, in the center of the 15th fairway at Augusta National Golf Club, tied for the lead in the Masters, as comfortable as if he had been wearing pajamas and slippers. As the light fell low, he faced a delicate, 87-yard pitch shot into the green. A birdie – attainable, even expected, from that position – would have earned him the outright lead.

Day, the 25-year-old Australian who tied for second here two years ago, had Friday’s best round, a 68 that got him to 6-under 138 for the tournament. That was a shot better than Couples, whose appearance near the top of the board is both astonishing and expected here; and Marc Leishman, Day’s countryman who shared the firstround lead and followed with a 73. There are others, lurking, Cabrera and Jim Furyk and Brandt Snedker – all at 4 under – among them. But Woods, despite his bogey at 18 that completed an utterly frustrating, betterthan-it-sounds 71, is just another shot back, at 3-under 141, tied with six others. “He can make it up in nine holes,” Day said.

Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford celebrates with teammates Jonathan Toews (center) and Brent Seabrook after defeating the Detroit Red Wings in a shootout, 3-2, Friday to clinch the Central Division title. Toews’ goal late in the third period tied the score and forced overtime.

Toews refuses to let Hawks lose CHICAGO – Jonathan Toews looks exhausted almost every time he is on the ice. Whenever a TV camera finds Toews, his cheeks look nearly as red as his home Blackhawks sweater. He is panting for breath 99½ times out of 100 – no, make that 99¾ times out of 100. He always seems to be in desperate need of a tank of oxygen and a two-week vacation. Yet Toews never stops. On Friday, Toews was the primary reason the Hawks rallied for a 3-2 shootout win against the Detroit Red Wings. The Hawks knocked yet another item off of their to-do list with eight games remaining in the regular season, clinching the Central

VIEWS Tom Musick Division title for the first time since 2010. We all know how that season ended. In order for the Hawks to win another Stanley Cup, keep an eye on The Captain to lead the way. Toews scored his 20th goal of the season Friday, and it was his biggest one yet. He parked his 6-foot-2, 208-pound frame in front of the net and punched in a loose puck with 2:57 remaining in regulation.

Wings defenseman Kyle Quincey caught a bad case of hockey regret for losing track of Toews near the crease. Wings goaltender Jimmy Howard, who had been terrific throughout the game, stretched his left leg as far as possible but could not stop the puck from sliding directly to the back of the net. Before that moment, the Hawks trailed, 2-1, and had just wasted a golden power-play opportunity. Before that moment, it looked as if the Wings would ruin the night in their final regular-season matchup at the United Center before they join the Eastern Conference next fall.

REUTER LEADS ADRIAN COLLEGE TO DIVISION III TITLE

CLS grad named national tourney MVP Adrian repeats as D-III champ By BARRY BOTTINO sportsdesk@nwherald.com Being comfortable on Adrian College’s southeastern Michigan campus took some getting used to for Nick Reuter. “It was difficult to come to a school where I didn’t know anyone,” said the reserved Reuter, a 2009 Crystal Lake South graduate. “I think I’ve kind of opened up. It’s been the perfect place for me.” Those who didn’t know Reuter are sure to be aware of his name now. Last month, the sophomore right wing had five goals and three assists in five games

at the American Collegiate Hockey Association Division III national tournament to win Most Valuable Player honors and lead Adrian to its second consecutive national title. “It was awesome,” Reuter said. “It was definitely unexpected. I was especially proud Nick Reuter of our team and the way we came together.” Adrian (30-3) finished the season with 12 consecutive victories as Reuter collected seven goals and nine assists in a regular season limited by a separated left shoulder. “He’s kind of an underappreciated player,” Adrian coach Trevor Markovich said.

“He’s not very vocal. He’s a quiet kid. He leads by example.” The example Reuter set at nationals was to cause havoc in front of the opposing goal. “A lot of my goals were just grind goals, being in front of the net,” he said. “He’s not a flashy skater,” Markovich said. “[Opponents] overlook him. He’s got to play with someone who can get him the puck. Ninety-nine percent of the time, he’ll find the back of the net.” Midway through the season, Reuter’s biggest challenge was finding his way on the ice after injuring his shoulder while being checked. While he was sitting out, Reuter remained near his teammates.

Late Hawks heroics Toews, Saad help clinch Central Division title By ANDREW SELIGMAN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Brandon Saad scored in the fifth round of the shootout after Jonathan Toews tied the score late in regulation, and the Blackhawks clinched the Central Division title with a 3-2 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Friday night. With St. Louis losing to Columbus earlier Friday, the Hawks wrapped up the Central race for the first time since 2010 when they won the Stanley Cup. The Hawks also increased their lead over Anaheim for the top seed in the Western Conference playoffs to six points. The shootout was tied 1-1 when Saad beat Jimmy Howard with a backhand shot. Corey Crawford then stopped Johan Franzen, sealing the win and giving the Hawks a four-game season sweep over Detroit. The Hawks were trailing 2-1 when Howard made a big pad save on Michael Frolik

8SPORTS SHORTS Interim tag dropped, Crews replaces Majerus ST. LOUIS – Just days removed from the start of fall practice in 2011-12, Rick Majerus needed an assistant coach – fast. Jim Crews had 24 hours to decide. “He said, ‘I think we’re going to win a lot of games, we’re going to eat well and we’re going to laugh a lot,’” Crews remembered. “A great trifecta.” Saint Louis hired Crews on Friday, stripping his interim tag and making him the official replacement for Majerus, who died in December.

Kyle Busch wins 6th Texas Nationwide race FORT WORTH, Texas – Kyle Busch raced to his third consecutive NASCAR Nationwide victory this season and his sixth overall at Texas, leading 91 of 200 laps Friday night. Busch is the first six-time winner in any series at the 1½-mile, high-banked Texas track. Busch finished 2.27 seconds ahead of Brad Keselowski, while Austin Dillon was third and Dale Earnhardt Jr. fourth. Sam Hornish Jr. maintained the series points lead despite finishing 34th.

Busch brothers starting 1-2 in Texas Cup race FORT WORTH, Texas – The Busch brothers will start on the front row for the second time in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series after younger brother Kyle set a Texas qualifying record with a lap of 196.299 mph Friday night.

Next for the Hawks Hawks at St. Louis, 11:30 a.m. Sunday, NBC, FM-97.9 in the closing minutes. The puck ended up at the left point, and Johnny Oduya’s shot hit traffic in front. Toews then fired in the loose puck for his 20th goal, tying it with 2:57 left in regulation. The Hawks then had a 2-on-1 rush, but Bryan Bickell’s shot with about 50 seconds left hit the left post. The Hawks had a chance late in overtime when Viktor Stalberg sprinted down the right wing and tried to center the puck to Patrick Kane. The puck appeared to hit a Detroit defender, and Howard swept it aside. Stalberg beat Howard with a wraparound shot early in the second period. Two quick goals by Franzen and Cory Emmerton late in the

period gave Detroit a 2-1 lead, but the Hawks answered down the stretch, winning their final game against the Red Wings as division foes. The teams have played 725 times, more than any other two NHL teams, but the rivalry between the Original Six franchises will have a different look next season because Detroit is headed to the Eastern Conference. The teams will go from playing six times a season to just twice. Notes: Hawks defenseman Duncan Keith played in his 600th game, and defenseman Niklas Hjalmarsson played in his 300th. ... Hawks forward Dave Bolland has been practicing but remained sidelined by a lower body injury. ... Forward Drew LeBlanc of St. Cloud State agreed to a one-year contract with the Hawks on the same day he won the Hobey Baker Award as the nation’s top college player. ... The Red Wings were without forwards Darren Helm (back) and Mikael Samuelsson (upper body).

Toews fires up crowd during, after victory • MUSICK Continued from page C1 But then Toews did what Toews does, and a sellout crowd of 22,191 screamed and danced and sang a happy song as if everyone in the building had won a free house. Because it would have been chaotic for all of those Jonathan Toews people to try to hug Toews, his Hawks teammates on the ice did the job. Michael Frolik was the first to arrive, grabbing him in a Czechstyle bear hug. The Hawks clinched the division by preserving a tie score for the next 177 seconds to earn a point, but they tacked on an extra point for good measure by beating the Wings in a five-round shootout. Rookie Brandon Saad scored the decisive shootout goal, and goaltender Corey Crawford denied veteran Wings forward Johan Franzen to seal the victory. None of that would have been possible without Toews’ hard-earned goal. That’s why Toews was the No. 1 star of the game. It’s why he stood in front of the Hawks’ bench for an in-stadium postgame interview

in front of many thousands of fans who lingered to hear him speak. “We’ve shown our confidence all year no matter what the situation,” Toews said, glancing toward the rowdy fans in the upper deck. “If we’re down a goal, here at home, in front of our fans, …” Toews’ lips kept moving, but I couldn’t hear him anymore. The place had erupted again. The next question for Toews was about the Hawks’ intense rivalry with the Wings. “When the fans get into it, chanting ‘Detroit [stinks]’… ” Toews said. Toews’ lips kept moving, but I couldn’t hear him once again. A certain chant had broken out. Before much longer, the postgame interview ended, and Toews turned around to join his teammates. The Hawks’ work is not finished – clinching the No. 1 overall seed in the Western Conference is next on their list – but they took a moment to celebrate the 15th division title in franchise history. And, finally, Toews had a chance to sit down and catch his breath. • Northwest Herald sports columnist Tom Musick can be reached at tmusick@ shawmedia.com and on Twitter @tcmusick.

AUGUSTA, Ga. – History is one of Guan Tianlang’s favorite subjects in school. How fitting. Hours after the 14-yearold was the first player ever penalized for slow play at the Masters, he became the youngest player to make the cut at Augusta National. “I made it,” he said afterward on Weibo, China’s version of Twitter. “I hope I can make more miracles, more dreams come true. I want to thank my parents and everyone who cared, supported and helped me.” Guan had to wait until the last group finished to know if he was in or out. He finished at 3-over-par 75 for the round, giving him a 4-over 148 total. The top 50 players made the cut, as well as those within 10 strokes of the lead. Jason Day was 6 under with two holes left, but he missed a birdie putt by inches on 17, and was in the sand off the tee on 18. “Obviously, it’s an amazing achievement to get to the weekend at Augusta. And being able to play and experience what he’s going to experience on the weekend, you can’t buy that stuff,” Day said. “I talked to him earlier and he seems like a really, really good kid. It’s unfortunate that he received the penalty, but he can learn from that and move on and hopefully can play well over the next two days.” For all the talk of Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, Guan added a buzz to the Masters. An eighth-grader who arrived at Augusta National with textbooks stuffed in his bag, he is the youngest player ever at the Masters and the youngest at any major in 148 years. He impressed fans and fellow players alike with

Amateur Guan Tianlang, 14, bumps fists with caddie Brian Tam after putting on the third hole during the Masters on Friday in Augusta, Ga. his steady play and calm demeanor, and making the cut looked like a given when he teed off on 17. But he was assessed a one-shot penalty after his second shot at the 17th hole, turning what would have been a par into a bogey. Slow play is a frequent complaint among golfers, particularly at major events, but it’s rarely enforced. Guan is believed to be the first player penalized for slow play at the Masters. The last player to be penalized at a major was Gregory Bourdy in the 2010 PGA Championship at Whistling Straits. “A rule is a rule,” Guan’s father, Han Wen, said after his son was penalized. “It’s OK.” But it sure caused a headache for Masters officials, who were horrified that anything might spoil the coming out party of a youngster who has the potential to be golf’s biggest star since Tiger Woods. Several “green jackets” were waiting for Guan at the scoring building when he finished his round, and he spent almost 90 minutes talking with rules and tournament officials. “That’s unfortunate,” Brandt Snedeker said. “I wish they would have made

an example out of somebody else except for a 14-year-old kid, you know? Make an example out of me or somebody else. But a kid just trying to make a cut in his first week of the Masters? I understand that slow play is a problem and it’s just a tough situation. I feel bad for the kid.” Guan said he has never had issues with slow play before, and he wasn’t warned Thursday. But conditions at Augusta National are notoriously tricky in perfect weather, and the swirling, gusty wind blowing Friday only made them more difficult. “I respect the decision they make,” Guan said. “They should do it because it’s fair to everybody.” Though Guan had played about a dozen practice rounds before the tournament, it often takes golfers years to figure out the best way to play Augusta National and Guan repeatedly sought the advice of his caddie, Brian Tam, who is a regular caddie at the course. The teenager tossed blades of grass into the air before many of his shots to test the wind. He was often indecisive about his clubs, pulling one, taking a few practice swings and then asking for another one.

Swirling wind frustrates players • MASTERS Continued from page C1 Woods’ afternoon tee time came after some morning showers had moved through, but by then the winds had kicked up. Augusta, on a normal day, provides the odd swirl, and guessing the wind can be akin to hurling darts at a board – blindfolded.

Friday, it was at its trickiest. “If it’s consistent, you can figure it out,” said firstround co-leader Sergio Garcia, who followed Thursday’s 66 with a 76 Friday. “But unfortunately, today it was very, very gusty. There were some shots that you would hit well and it would make you look a little bit silly.” Garcia, for instance, said

he hit what was a strong 3-iron at 15, yet it ended up in the water. Furyk, tied for the lead for a time, also found the water at the par5 15th, leading to a double bogey. And they weren’t alone. Thursday, 45 players shot par or better, a dozen scored in the 60s. Friday, those numbers plummeted to 32 and five, respectively. “The golf course is winning today,” Couples said.

Masters weekend; Chicago teams only a click away Northwest Herald sports copy editor Kevin Murphy picks his top sports events to watch this weekend:

MUST-SEE TV Golf: Masters Tournament, final round, at Augusta, Ga., 1 p.m. Sunday, CBS Tiger Woods. That’s the only person I want at the top of the leaderboard at the end of the week. Sports need its superstars. And Tiger Woods fulfills that requirement. Call me selfish. It’s the same reason I want to see Serena Williams and Roger Federer win tennis tournaments. Golf needs Woods to be No. 1 and winning majors. He’s due. I hope he gets after it.

Hockey: Blackhawks at St. Louis, 11:30 a.m. Sunday, NBC Photo provided

Cary-Grove graduate Hayden Baker has been getting reps in practice on the offensive line this spring for Northwestern, which plays its spring game Sunday.

Meet me in St. Louis. Although I don’t see this rivalry as bitter as Hawks vs. Detroit Red Wings or Cardinals-Cubs (for you St. Louis enthusiasts), it’s still a classic.

MURPH’S ’MOTE Kevin Murphy As Northwest Herald sports columnist Tom Musick wrote the other day, the Blues’ recent revival has pumped some life into an Interstate-55 showdown. After this game Sunday, the Hawks will have seven games left in the regular season, with a regular-season finale April 27 in St. Louis.

SET THE DVR Pro basketball: Bulls at Miami, noon, Sunday, ABC Seriously? How do the Bulls lose to Washington and lose at home against Toronto and then go snap the New York Knicks’ 13-game winning streak? Admittedly, it’s been a frustrating season to watch with Nate Robinson running the show with Derrick Rose on the sidelines, but it’s been a blast

to watch, too. All Robinson did was drop 35 points on the Knicks the other night, and it’s fun to watch the little guy walk around with so much swagger. Plus, watching him feed Jimmy Butler for so many thunderous dunks this season, you can’t help but enjoy yourself watching the Bulls for the rest of the regular season.

CATCH THE HIGHLIGHTS LATER Baseball: White Sox at Cleveland, noon, Sunday, CSN The Sox dropped a tough series in Washington. Hopefully, they’ll have better luck as they continue a 10-game road trip.

OF NOTE Women’s college bowling, NCAA championships, 7 p.m. today, ESPNU Jacobs graduate and Nebraska bowler Amanda Burau will try to help the Huskers win an NCAA championship. Nebraska is one eight teams

that qualified for the national championships and will try to unseat two-time defending national champion Maryland-Eastern Shore.

College football, Northwestern spring game, 8 p.m., Sunday, BTN (tape delay) The Wildcats will play their spring football game earlier in the day. Cary-Grove graduate Hayden Baker has been receiving plenty of reps with the Northwestern offensive line this season. Baker has been a backup at center and played at left and right guard. “He’s going to be a great utility guy for us,” Northwestern offensive line coach Adam Cushing said of Baker in a news release. “He’s like that utility infielder. You can’t have too many of those guys.” • Agree? Disagree? Is someone from the Northwest Herald coverage area going to be on TV? Let Kevin Murphy know at kmurphy@shawmedia.com.

‘Grandma’ Mahoney lends hand

8INSIDE TRACK AND FIELD

Emily Mahoney spent the fall semester as a student teacher at Johnsburg High School. When the Dominican University senior softball player returned to campus in River Forest this spring, she noticed a similar age discrepancy to her high school students. As one of only four seniors on the NCAA Division III softball team, Mahoney is part of a roster with no juniors, six sophomores and 10 freshmen. “I feel like a grandma when I tell them I’m going to be 23 at the end of the year and they just turned 18,” Mahoney said. Emily Despite an abunMahoney dance of youth, the Stars and Mahoney are enjoying an impressive season. Thanks to Mahoney earning Northern Athletics Conference Pitcher of the Week the past two weeks, Dominican (16-6) has started its conference season with an 8-0 record. Last weekend, Mahoney pitched four complete-game shutouts and piled up 28 consecutive scoreless innings as Dominican swept doubleheaders from Marian and Edgewood. She struck out a season-high 16 in a 1-0 win against Marian. In the four games, she struck out 48 batters. “I don’t know how to describe it,” said Mahoney, a Crystal Lake South grad. “I didn’t expect things to go this well. I’m glad that I’ve been able to help the team.” For the season, Mahoney (11-2) has a 1.98 ERA and 145 strikeouts in 952/3 innings. Last weekend, she zoomed past Dominican’s single-season strikeout record of 124. “The way I pitch has changed a lot,” Mahoney said. “I’ve gone from throwing drop balls and drop curves to throwing rise balls and rise curves.” Mahoney’s contributions go beyond pitching, though. She is also one of the team’s top hitters with a .387 batting average with 13 RBIs. “I’ve always loved hitting,” she said. “I came here as a position player. I really appreciate the opportunity to hit, and I don’t take it for granted.” Judson milestone: Jacobs grad Johnny Amann hit a two-run homer Monday for NAIA Judson University’s baseball team to help head coach Rich Benjamin reach his 200th career victory in a doubleheader sweep of

He finished eighth in the Class 3A 400 at the IHSA Boys Track and Field State Meet last year.

ON CAMPUS Barry Bottino Calumet College of St. Joseph. Judson (25-14) leads the Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference’s North Division with a 10-3 record. Amann, a senior infielder, is batting .248 with seven doubles, three homers and 18 RBIs. Among the team’s top hitters is freshman outfielder Luke Wians of Hampshire. Wians has a .364 batting average. While starting 15 games, he has produced 14 RBIs. Seniors T.J. Swank (Prairie Ridge) and Craig Lipp (Huntley) are two of the team’s top starting pitchers. Swank is 5-1 with a 3.43 ERA and 32 strikeouts in 42 innings. Lipp has a 4-2 record and a 2.68 ERA. Freshman Luke Keller (Prairie Ridge) is 2-0 out of the Eagles’ bullpen with two saves and a 2.81 ERA. Auburn achiever: Huntley grad Marcus Popenfoose placed second in the discus and third in the shot put last weekend for D-I Auburn at the team’s Tiger Track Classic. Popenfoose threw the discus 173 feet, 3 inches to finish as the event’s runner-up. The junior had a shot put throw of 59 feet, 7 ¾ inches, which was only one inch behind event champion Coy Blair of Purdue. Popenfoose’s shot put effort ranks sixth in the Southeastern Conference this season. His best discus throw of 173-4 earlier this season ranks ninth in the SEC. Pyan power: D-III Carthage College softball player Vicki Pyan is batting .411 with a team-best nine doubles and 18 runs scored this season. Pyan, a Crystal Lake South grad, has a .750 slugging percentage and has helped Carthage to a 15-5 record to start the season. The junior, who plays third base, also leads the team with two triples and two home runs while collecting 14 RBIs this season. Pyan drove in three runs April 6 in a doubleheader sweep of North Park as Carthage opened the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin schedule with a 2-0 record.

When the team returned to campus, Markovich’s decision to get him back in the lineup was easy, though the coach was still undecided on who to pair with Reuter. “He’s a guy that you’ve got to get back in the lineup,” Markovich said. “He played on three different lines. … He had an up-anddown season.” Eventually, Markovich settled on pairing Reuter with senior left wing Russ Rizzo and junior center Doug Raymond. “That’s the line that carried us all the way to the title,” Markovich said.

San Francisco at Cubs, 12:05 p.m. today, Fox, AM-720 himself. “That’s the part I love the most about this game,” Castro said. “Every day is a new day. Play hard, you can be a hero.” For most of the day, it looked like Cubs starter Carlos Villanueva would be the hero, albeit with plenty of support from Castro and David DeJesus. The Cubs right-hander pitched 71/3 shut-out innings and allowed three hits while striking out three. DeJesus and Castro both hit their first

home runs to stake Villanueva to a lead against Giants ace Matt Cain on a day the wind was blowing out to right field. “With Cain you want to be aggressive. He throws strikes,” DeJesus said. “You get a fastball, you want to take advantage of it. ... I wasn’t 100 percent. I was kind of like, ‘Man, I popped it up.’ But when you look at the flags, the wind really took it.” The strong start was Villanueva’s second in a row for the Cubs. When Villanueva made his Cubs debut April 6 at Atlanta he gave up one run in 62/3 innings but took a no-decision when relievers Fujikawa and Carlos Marmol let the Braves rally. Again, Villanueva didn’t get the win after Fujikawa blew his first save in three tries.

Dodgers’ Greinke to have surgery By BERNIE WILSON The Associated Press SAN DIEGO – Zack Greinke’s pitch sailed up and into Carlos Quentin’s upper left arm, and it was on. A little personal history was at play, as were rules that aren’t in any rule book. Now the Dodgers will be without their $147 million pitcher for eight weeks and Quentin is expected to be suspended by Major League Baseball, partly because of baseball culture and its fuzzy, unspoken guidelines on just when and how it’s OK to plunk someone. After Quentin got hit, the San Diego Padres’ slugger took a few steps onto the grass. When Greinke, Los Angeles’ prize offseason signing, appeared to say something, Quentin tossed his bat aside and rushed the mound. The 6-foot-2, 195-pound Greinke dropped his glove and the two players lowered their shoulders. The 6-2, 240-pound Quentin – who starred as an outside linebacker in high school – slammed into the pitcher. Quentin and Greinke ended up at the bottom of a huge scrum as players from both sides ran onto the field and jumped in. Greinke took the brunt of the blow, breaking his left collarbone and inciting a fight that didn’t even end when the game was over. The Dodgers said Greinke will undergo surgery today to have a rod inserted into the collarbone. “It’s a man’s game on the field,” Quentin said. “Thoughts aren’t present when things like this happen.” Quentin said later that getting plunked by pitches by Greinke during the 2008 and 2009 seasons was justification enough to charge the mound when it happened again.

Meeting their match Businesses make connections in ‘speed-dating’ event By BRETT ROWLAND browland@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – A round of “speed dating” gave local business leaders a chance to make connections with nearby companies. Business representatives rotated through a series of 15-minute meetings with their local counterparts in a bid to find prospective partners, suppliers and service contractors. The McHenry County Economic Development Corp. hosted its fifth Manufacturing Matchmaking event in as many years Thursday morning at the Crystal Lake Holiday Inn. More than 80 businesses, including Caterpillar and others from outside McHenry County, attended. “People have told us they drive past each day but don’t know what we do,” said Bert Berry, who works in sales at TC Industries, a 130-year-old steel products maker located along Route 31 near Crystal Lake. “If you don’t come to these events and see what’s in your own backyard, you miss opportunities.” The event isn’t exactly like speed dating, as the companies get to request meetings with certain businesses before the event. But it does foster serendipitous and productive meetings, MCEDC President Pam Cumpata said. “We come primarily to meet local customers and new suppliers,” said Don Hardin, vice president of sales at Fabrik Molded Plastics in McHenry. “It allows us to meet a lot of people quickly.” And it’s much easier than cold calling and arranging meetings. “It would take me weeks to cold call all these people,” said Michael Splitt, owner of In Sync Systems in Crystal Lake and a sponsor of the

Christopher Connell, marketing manager of Dreisilker Electric Motors Inc., speaks with a representative of another local manufacturer during a matchmaking event hosted by the McHenry County Economic Development Corp. event. “Here, I can meet them all in a half hour. It’s a great opportunity.” About a third of the businesses at the MCEDC manufacturing supply chain event had requested meetings with representatives from Caterpillar’s global purchasing division. MCEDC officials served Caterpillar representatives a steady stream of coffee and other refreshments as they met with more than two dozen local companies over the course of several hours. “We hope it’s valuable for all of us,” said John Kretchmer, senior vice president of Castle Bank in Lake in the Hills, which sponsored the event. “And we hope it translates into new business for all of us.” The networking event can help

open new doors and lead to new opportunities for local businesses. “When our customers do well, we do well,” said Tim Struthers, market president for Castle Bank, a division of First National Bank. McHenry County relies heavily on the manufacturing industry for both wages and employment. Manufacturers were well represented Thursday, as were the service companies many manufacturers depend on. The goal was to help them find additional ways to work together to make the region stronger, Cumpata said. “There’s nothing better than dealing with home town folks,” said Eldon Johnson, director of sales at TC Industries. “Without events like this, it would be harder to do.”

Retail sales fall 0.4 percent in March By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER AP Economics Writer WASHINGTON – U.S. retail sales fell in March from February by the most in nine months, indicating higher taxes and weak hiring have made consumers more cautious about spending. The Commerce Department says retail sales declined a seasonally adjusted 0.4 percent last month. That followed a 1 percent gain in February. Both February and January’s figures were revised lower. Consumers cut back across a wide range of categories. Sales at auto dealers dropped 0.6 percent. Gas station sales dropped 2.2 percent, partly reflecting lower prices. The retail sales figures aren’t adjusted for price changes. Excluding autos, gas and building materials, core sales dropped 0.2 percent in March. That followed a gain of

0.3 percent in January. Department stores, grocery stores, electronics retailers and sporting goods stores all reported lower sales. The retail sales report is the government’s first look at consumer spending, which drives about 70 percent of economic activity. The weak month of spending at retail businesses shows an increase in Social Security taxes that took effect on Jan. 1 is finally affecting consumers. The increase has lowered take-home pay this year for nearly all workers. Someone earning $50,000 has about $1,000 less to spend in 2013. A household with two high-paid workers has up to $4,500 less. Most economists thought the tax increase would drag on spending earlier this year. But they were encouraged after February’s retail sales report showed such a large gain. Many boosted their forecasts

for economic growth in the first quarter to a 3 percent annual rate or higher, although many are likely to reduce those expectations slightly after seeing Friday’s retail spending figures. A private survey of 15 major retailers released Thursday showed that shoppers spent cautiously last month, held back by the coldest March in seven years. Still, sales at stores open for at least a year rose 1.6 percent in March, according to the International Council of Shopping Centers. Auto sales also slowed slightly in March, to an annual pace of 15.3 million. That was down from 15.4 million in February. And after a sharp run-up in February, gas prices fell last month, which also affected the retails spending figures. The cost of a gallon of gas averaged $3.56 nationwide Thursday, down from $3.70 a month earlier.

HUNTLEY – Hampshirebased air filter maker RPS Products Inc. plans to move part of its operations to the former Dean Foods building in Huntley. RPS Products will employ more than 50 people in Huntley, according to local officials who helped with the relocation. The company could begin operations as early as June 1. RPS President Dan Schuld cited the location’s proximity to the I-90 interchange. The Illinios Department of Transportation is building a $69 million full Interstate 90-Route 47 interchange. The project is expected to be completed late this year. “Our location in Huntley, only 1.5 miles from the new I-90 interchange, will allow us to be highly efficient in the transportation and logistical elements of our operations,” he said in a press release. “Clearly, the new interchange was a significant positive factor in our decision to locate in Huntley.” RPS Products sells its Best Air brand producs to major retailers in the United States. It plans to move into the former Dean Foods building at 12007 Smith Drive. The 65,000-square-foot building has been vacant for about a decade, said Victor Narusis, the village’s business recruitment coordinator. The village hasn’t pledged financial incentives to the company, but Narusis said village staff plan to work with the company to see what incentives they can help secure from the state, ComEd, and other agencies to ease the transition. The McHenry County Economic Development Corp. worked with village staff to facilite the move in a relatively short three-week span. “The RPS move demonstrates our continued focus on growing Huntley’s industrial base,” village President Charles Sass said in a statement released this week. “The addition of RPS to Huntley’s business community not only brings new jobs, but further diversifies the village’s tax base.” RPS is a leading supplier of residential home filters and related products.

Stocks end 4-day advance The Associated Press NEW YORK – A four-day advance came to an end on Wall Street as falling commodity prices brought down the stocks of energy and mining companies. The Dow Jones industrial average fell a fraction to close at 14,865 Friday. In the first four days of the week the Dow rose 300 points. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell four points to 1,588. The Nasdaq composite lost five points to 3,294. All three indexes still ended the week higher. Oil companies fell after crude dropped $2.55 to $90.96 a barrel. OPEC, the International Energy Agency and the U.S. have cut their estimates for oil demand this year. Gold futures notched their biggest one-day fall in more than a year. Gold plunged $78.10 to close at $1,486.80 an ounce Friday. One trigger for the slide was a government report Friday that U.S. wholesale prices fell in March by the most in 10 months. Investors tend to buy gold when they expect inflation to increase. Any indication that prices aren’t rising will prompt investors to sell gold.

Full house at chamber’s business expo

Well Fargo first-quarter profit surges 22 percent

I would like to start by saying thank you to all the sponsors, vendors, and volunteers that were involved with the 2013 Richmond/ Spring Grove Chamber of Commerce Health, Home & Business Expo. Without you we wouldn’t have had the successful show that we experienced. A “full house” is the expression that comes to mind when reflecting back on the expo held March 9 at the Nippersink Middle School. The weather cooperated for the most part and the public was out and about. The members filled the gym, we added interactive and demo booths in the common area and the halls were filled with arts & crafts. This proved to be a fabulous balance for all that attended. We couldn’t have spared space for another booth if we tried! Keep this in mind when reserving a space for next year. This year we were fortunate to have two Gold Sponsors for our event. This generosity from Back in Motion Physical Therapy & Spine Center and Frontier Communications made it possible to expand the marketing and advertising for the expo. We thank you!

NEW YORK – Wells Fargo, the nation’s biggest mortgage lender, said its first-quarter profit surged 23 per cent after it cut expenses. The lower expenses helped the bank overcome a slight decline in revenue. Net income rose to $4.93 billion from $4.02 billion a year earlier. On a per-share basis, earnings were 92 cents, beating the 89 cents forecast by Wall Street. Revenue fell 2 percent to $21.3 billion and missed expectations. The bank’s non-interest expenses fell $593 million, or 4.6 percent, to $12.4 billion. Wells says expenses will fall further from first quarter levels in the coming three months.

Wholesale prices drop 0.6 percent in March WASHINGTON – A measure of wholesale prices fell in March by the largest amount in 10 months, reflecting a big drop in gasoline prices. The producer price index fell 0.6 percent last month compared with February, the Labor Department said Friday. In February, wholesale prices had jumped 0.7 percent. The March decline reflected a 6.8 percent plunge in gas prices, the sharpest drop since November. Overall energy prices fell 3.4 percent, the biggest decline in three years. Food prices posted a 0.8 percent rise in March. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, rose 0.2 percent in March. Wholesale and retail inflation have remained mild, apart from sharp swings in gas prices. For the 12 months ending in March, wholesale prices are up 1.1 percent, the smallest 12-month rise since last July. Core inflation at the wholesale level is up 1.7 percent in the past 12 months, the smallest 12-month gain since early 2011.

PC outlook darkens as sales slump deepens in 1Q The Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO – The ailing personal computer market is getting weaker, and it’s starting to look as if it will never fully recover as a new generation of mobile devices reshapes the way people use technology. The latest evidence of the PC’s infirmity emerged this week with the release of two somber reports showing unprecedented declines in sales of desktop and laptop machines during the first three months of the year. As if that news wasn’t troubling enough, it appears that a pivotal makeover of Microsoft’s ubiquitous Windows operating system seems to have done more harm than good since the software was released last October. “This is horrific news for PCs,” said BGC Financial analyst Colin Gillis. “It’s all about mobile computing now. We have definitely reached the tipping point.” First-quarter shipments of PCs fell 14 percent worldwide from the same time last year, according to International Data Corp. That’s the deepest quarterly drop since the firm started tracking the industry in 1994. Another research firm, Gartner Inc., pegged the first-quarter decline at 11 percent.

– From wire services

time. “Less people will need them.” The traditional PC still has a long way to go before it becomes obsolete. Despite the dismaying start in the first quarter, more than 300 million PCs are still expected to be sold worldwide this year. Tablet computers, a category that was insignificant until the iPad came along, is catching up rapidly: Nearly 200 million of those deices could be sold this year. Meanwhile, worldwide smartphone sales could surpass 1 billion units this year, Gillis predicted. PC sales could be undermined even more during the next few years with the release of “wearable computing” devices that connect to the Internet through voice-activated equipment attached to glasses and wristwatches. The growing reliance on mobile devices is creating new opportunities and tensions throughout the technology industry. Internet companies such as Yahoo Inc. and Facebook Inc. that initially designed their digital services to be primarily consumed on PCs have been scrambling to tweak things so they work better on smartphones and tablets. But the companies most threatened by the mobile upheaval are those that depend on PCs to make most of their money. This group includes technology heavyweights such as Windows

The deviation stemmed in part from the firms’ slightly different definitions of PCs. No matter how things are parsed, the PC market is in the worst shape since IBM Corp. released a desktop machine in 1981. PC sales have now fallen from their year-ago levels in four consecutive quarters, a slide that has been accelerating even amid signs that the overall economy is getting healthier. PCs are going out of style because they typically cost more than smartphones and tablets, and aren’t as convenient to use. Most PCs sell for $500 to $1,500 while the initial out-of-pocket expense for a smartphone runs as low as $99 while an array of tablets sell for $200 to $300. Apple’s late CEO Steve Jobs, whose company propelled the mobile computing revolution with the 2007 release of the iPhone, declared that the world was entering a “post-PC era” shortly after the iPad came out three years ago. In a June 2010 appearance at a technology conference, Jobs likened challenges facing the PC industry to what happened to trucks in the U.S. decades ago as a shift away from farming caused more people to move into cities where they wanted to drive cars instead. “I think PCs are going to be like trucks,” Jobs predicted at the

maker Microsoft, PC makers HewlettPackard Co. and Dell Inc. and PC chip maker Intel Corp. “It’s time for these companies to make some critical decisions and ask themselves, ‘How are we going to turn this ship around?’” said technology industry analyst Patrick Moorhead. Microsoft Corp. CEO Steve Ballmer thought he had come up with a tonic last fall when his company released a radical new version of Windows last fall. Windows 8 has a completely new look that’s similar to the design of the software running the most popular smartphones and tablet computers. The overhaul requires a relearning process, a leap that many consumers and corporate buyers aren’t ready to take. All signs so far point to Windows 8 being a flop. “Unfortunately, it seems clear that the Windows 8 launch not only didn’t provide a positive boost to the PC market, but appears to have slowed the market,” IDC Vice President Bob O’Donnell said. The newest version of Windows is designed to work well with touch-sensitive screens, but the displays add to the cost of a PC. Together, the changes and higher prices “have made PCs a less attractive alternative to dedicated tablets and other competitive devices,” O’Donnell said.

Gary Ryan Blair, a motivational speaker and author, said, “Opportunities are easily lost while waiting for perfect conditions.” At the bridge table, you will not always have the perfect hand for a given call. You must play the percentages. If a call will probably win, go with it. But remember that nothing works all of the time. This applies when you are balancing with a weak hand. You know partner must have some points; otherwise, the opponents would have bid higher. In this situation, irst wonder what the opponents might have missed. In particular, if you are short in an unbid major, be particularly cautious. Sometimes a pass will be less expensive than a bid. In this deal, look at the North hand. East’s onespade opening is passed around to you. What would you do? It is quite likely that South has a strong hand with spade length that is not suitable for a one-notrump overcall. (Perhaps it is not strong enough, or is too unbalanced.) So, you could double. But your

defense is not good -- your hand has better offensive potential. And since it is unlikely that the opponents have missed a makable four-heart contract, you should balance with two diamonds. Here, partner will gnash his teeth and jump to three no-trump. West leads his spade. What should South do? He has eight top tricks: two spades (given the lead), two hearts, three diamonds and one club. He can get home if either red suit breaks 3-3. After winning the irst trick, he should play three rounds of hearts. Here, that works nicely.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - Though you may be restless in the coming months, don’t make changes simply for change’s sake. If you find yourself at a loss, stay where you are, because it may be your best chance for success. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- To get what you want, you might be tempted to employ subterfuge. However, if you do, it could turn out to be a major embarrassment. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- If you have a lot of rushing around to do, you could easily get careless with your possessions. Make sure you have your valuables on your person at all times. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- If you’re unprepared to help yourself, why should you expect others to pick up the slack? Success is more than likely to elude you, through no fault but your own. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Fight off any tendencies toward self-pity, because it is a futile state. Your family and companions will be immersed in their own problems and will have little sympathy. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Instead of feeling obligated to do business with a firm that you’ve dealt with previously, go where you can get the best deal. Sentiment can be unaffordable at times. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Indecision or inconsistency on your part can be unnerving to your associates. To maintain your credibility, you must do what you say, and do it confidently. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Don’t treat an assignment indifferently just because you feel it’s beneath you. If you fail to deliver, it could greatly damage your prospects. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- There is a strong possibility that you could be too gullible in your commercial dealings. Be extra careful and question everything, especially in unfamiliar waters. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Be wary of getting deeply and quickly involved with someone you just met. Let things develop slowly, and time will be the judge. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Strive to be a productive individual instead of a procrastinator. What you put off doing now will most likely never get done. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Your impulse for instant gratification could cause dire financial complications. Stop deluding yourself into making rash purchases. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Don’t anticipate failure before you even give something the old college try. You have as much chance of winning as you do of losing. Focus on the former, not the latter.

Life HAPPENS… What is mental illness? The National Association of Mental Health deﬁnes mental illness as a medical condition that disrupts a person’s thinking, feeling, mood, ability to relate to others and daily functioning. Mental illnesses can affect people of any age, ethnicity, race, gender or income. The good news about mental illness is that help is readily available and you CAN get better.
