Deputies sue shooting suspect Aunt who police say provided weapon also named in civil lawsuit By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com

Scott B. Peters

WOODSTOCK – Two McHenry County sheriff’s deputies injured in the line of duty are suing the man accused of shooting them and the woman who allegedly gave him access to fire-

arms. Deputies Dwight Maness and Khalia Satkiewicz filed a 12-count civil lawsuit against Scott B. Peters last month in McHenry County. The lawsuit also names Peters’ aunt Kathryn Kriepke, who authorities said provided the gun that he is ac-

cused of using in the shooting. Maness and Satkiewicz are seeking unspecified damages from Peters and Kriepke in excess of $50,000, though that dollar amount is merely a legal standard. The damages likely will be much more significant, said attorney Philip Prossnitz, who is

representing the deputies. “Getting shot is not part of the job of being a sheriff’s deputy,” Prossnitz said. “Anyone who shoots a sheriff’s deputy, or provides a weapon to someone who does, is going to feel the full brunt and consequence of the civil justice system.”

Peters is awaiting trial on multiple attempted murder and weapons charges stemming from the Oct. 16 incident. Authorities say he fired more than a dozen rounds at Maness and Satkiewicz, who were responding to

‘Lincoln never dies’ – finding his resonance 150 years later “I think Lincoln was one of those men who could see through the fog of time, the fog of history, and he had a vision of a road for this country. We’re not there yet. Ferguson showed us that ... but we’re still on that road.”

Robert Davis A Civil War re-enactor

By ADAM GELLER The Associated Press WASHINGTON – In the reading room overlooking Pennsylvania Avenue, Karen Needles mostly works alone – but always in good company. Five mornings a week, she arrives at the National Archives, often wearing an Abraham Lincoln T-shirt. Beside her laptop with its Lincoln mouse pad, she sometimes stations an Honest Abe bobblehead, seemingly nodding approval. Here, three blocks from where, 150 years ago this week, Lincoln was killed, Needles works to bring him to life, scanning every original record she can from Lincoln’s administration and posting them online. To Needles, raised in smalltown Kansas and first in her family to go to college, Lincoln has long been a role model. But we could all use some Lincoln, the former history teacher says, relishing the notion of his statue at the Lincoln Memorial taking today’s politicians over his knee. “Lincoln never dies,” she says. Soon after John Wilkes Booth shot Lincoln on April 14, 1865, the country embarked on a 1,700-mile funeral from Washington to Springfield, Illinois. Day and night, crowds lined the rails in a cathartic outpouring that has never been rivaled. Today, the commemoration stirs the voices of Lincoln’s modern-day admirers, some connecting with him in almost personal terms, while searching anew for his relevance to the republic he left behind.

Local agencies adjust as firefighting field changes By ALLISON GOODRICH agoodrich@shawmedia.com Chief Tony Huemann of the McHenry Township Fire Protection District was the kid who grew up dreaming about jumping at the sound of a bell to confront a blazing building. While his long firefighting tenure has allowed him plenty of opportunities to fulfill that dream, time, fire safety advancements and an expanding demand for medical care have made those instances far less frequent. It seems the duties associated with being a firefighter reflect the job title less as the years go on, with the

“... As a country we are becoming much more fire safe. We now have early warning, requiring the installation of smoke detectors and in some states, residential sprinkler systems.” Kenneth Willette National Fire Protection Association’s public fire protection division manager number of fire calls falling as emergency medical services continue to grow in demand. “It’s turned into us doing much more patient care and ambulance work than we ever have in the past,” Huemann said. “And then we’ll go on a fire call occasionally.”

Local and national agencies report trend Within the jurisdiction of the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District, EMS responses continue to outweigh fire responses, as they have since at least 2001, according to data from the dis-

trict. Then, medical calls represented 53 percent of the total responses, whereas they made up 68 percent in 2012. Meanwhile, fire responses declined from 47 percent of the total to 32 percent in that time. The trend also is evident in Crystal Lake, where the fire and rescue department, which integrated fire and EMS services in 1980, reported almost two times the number of EMS calls last year compared to the year 2000, and only 56 fire calls in 2014 compared to 169 in 2003. The local data mirror those of agencies nationwide,

Construction season

kcraver@shawmedia.com As road work starts in earnest this year, we’ll advise you of new projects as they come. But as for what’s going on right now: • ROUTE 14: Plans call for rebuilding and widening Route 14 from West Lake Shore Drive in Woodstock to just south of Crystal Lake Avenue. While the project is divided into two contracts, with Lucas Road near McHenry County College separating them, work on both will take place simultaneously, meaning drivers will need to plan for two work zones. The road will be widened to two lanes in each direction, separated by a 22-foot landscaped median. A 10-foot bike path will be included from Lake Shore Drive to just past MCC. Traffic signals will be improved or installed at eight intersections along the route. One lane of traffic will be maintained in each direction through construction. The $48 million project will take two years. • CHARLES MILLER ROAD: Road construction is starting on a project to widen and improve Charles Miller Road from Esmeralda Park to Route 31. Utility relocation and sewer work took place

You can get weekly updates on McHenry County road projects and sign up for email alerts at NWHerald.com. through the winter. Workers will finish widening Charles Miller Road to four lanes west to Route 31, and improve its intersection with Route 31 and Bull Valley Road. Bull Valley Road from the Union Pacific railroad tracks west will be improved as part of the plan. One lane in each direction will be maintained on affected roads. Work on the project, pegged at $17.3 million, is expected to wrap up in November, weather permitting. • SOUTH MAIN STREET, CRYSTAL LAKE: Crystal Lake drivers should be ready for delays as construction continues to widen and improve a stretch of South Main Street and Pyott Road from south of Route 14 to north of Rakow Road. The project will widen the entire road to four lanes – eliminating choke points for northbound drivers on Pyott Road and southbound drivers on South Main Street – and improve the roads’ intersection with Virginia Road. Work on

the pavement is starting after workers through the winter relocated utilities and installed temporary traffic signals. The $5.7 million project, the cost of which is being paid by a federal grant, the city and McHenry County, will be finished by November, weather permitting. • ROUTE 31: Work is set to wrap up this spring on a $5.2 million project to widen Route 31 to four lanes from south of Rakow Road to just north of Trinity Drive on the borders of Lake in the Hills and Cary. The improvement project started last June. • RURAL BRIDGES: The McHenry County Division of Transportation plans to replace three bridges this year over the Kishwaukee River. Work will take place to replace a bridge on County Line Road in Marengo Township for just under $2.7 million, a bridge on Franklinville Road in Seneca Township for $1.5 million, and a bridge over Noe Road in Marengo Township for $1.17 million. Both the Noe and County Line road bridges are now closed to traffic.

LOCAL BRIEFS Man hospitalized after Jeep hits building FOX LAKE – One male driver was taken to an area hospital Saturday after he crashed a vehicle into a Fox Lake village building, officials said. The Fox Lake Village Fire Department was called about 12:30 p.m. to the building, which is apparently used by the village’s water and sewer department, Battalion Chief Ed Lescher said. The building is near the intersection of Route 12 and Eagle Point Road. The driver and sole occupant of the Jeep was taken to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville with injuries that were not life-threatening, Lescher said. Fox Lake police Sgt. Dawn Deservi said the building was not occupied by any people, only equipment. Neither of the officials could estimate how extensive the damage was to the building or the vehicle, but Lescher said “the Jeep was about three quarters into the pump house.” Deservi said the crash remains under investigation. – Allison Goodrich

Consolidation details sought County Board asking for explanation of township merger rules By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – If the McHenry County Board is going to be asked to put township-consolidation referendums on the ballot, Chairman Joe Gottemoller said he wants its responsibilities under state law clearly known.

Gottemoller, R-Crystal Lake, told board members at their Thursday morning meeting that he is asking the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office for a full review of the statutory power that the board has in the wake of the news that a group is launching an effort to put referendums before voters with the goal of consolidating the county’s

17 townships down to eight. The issues Gottemoller wants explained include the authority the County Board has under state law, the steps required, and any other variables involved, such as drawing proposed boundaries. “I don’t know those answers. I’ll be asking the state’s attorney’s office to give us those answers be-

fore we take it to committee,” Gottemoller said. A group calling itself McHenry County Citizens for Township Consolidation announced March 30 that it intends to ask the County Board for a series of binding referendums on the March 2016 ballot,

WOODSTOCK – After 17 years in Huntley, a small paper manufacturer plans to move north to Woodstock, as part of a business expansion within a city looking to fill its vacant industrial areas. Guy Spinelli, owner of Guy’s E.Paper Company, said he will soon start a $2 million investment that converts a portion of the former D.B. Hess property in Woodstock to fit his manufacturing business, once he closes on the property in May. The move would give Spinelli more space for his business and could move his 28 full-time employees into Woodstock by late summer. He credited city officials’ proactive approach as the main reason why he wanted to move from Huntley, along with better railroad access and lower costs. “We like the community of Woodstock because they are business-friendly and they appear to want to take care of their citizens,” Spinelli said. “That’s what drove us to Woodstock.” Spinelli said he plans to hire between seven and 12 additional full-time employees within the first year of the move to Woodstock. Three years after the move, he hopes to have 60 full-time workers employed, he said. Spinelli’s move into Woodstock also fills an industrial space left vacant for nearly two years, after commercial printer company D.B. Hess shuttered its Woodstock operation and put roughly 130 people out of work in summer 2013.

New space could bring 2nd Dunkin’ Donuts to Huntley By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO

Health officials remind residents of rules for burning landscape waste

sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Another Dunkin’ Donuts shop could come to Huntley, as part of a developer’s proposal to build a 7,420-square-foot retail space along Route 47 in the north end of the village. Suresh Patel recently petitioned the village to create the multi-tenant space at the southeast corner of Route 47 and Rainsford Drive, north of Reed Road. Patel said he expects to acquire the vacant 1.8-acre lot by the end of the month, after Village Board members recently approved his preliminary plans.

More information

NORTHWEST HERALD WOODSTOCK – McHenry County Department of Health officials wish to remind residents of the restrictions regarding the proper disposal of landscape waste. Landscape waste includes grass or shrubbery cuttings, leaves and tree limbs. The McHenry County Public Health Ordinance lists the following restrictions for burning of onsite-generated landscape waste on Saturdays and Sundays during April, May, October and November: • No burning is permitted from dusk to dawn. • The burn area must be located at least 100 feet from any school, business, church or house and 50 feet from any barn, shed, detached garage or other accessory structure. • Landscape waste cannot be brought from another property to be burned for disposal. • Burning of any other materials, such as cardboard, paper, plastics, construction materials, or manure is prohibited at all times. Most municipalities have ordinances which also restrict or prohibit the burning of yard waste. In areas where there is not a ban or more restrictive ordinance, the county ordinance must be followed. An Illinois EPA Bureau of Air Application for Open Burning Permit is required for habitat reclamation burns regardless of acreage. For information, contact the Illinois EPA Bureau of Air Permit Section at 217-782-2113. MCDH encourages more environmentally sound alterna-

For permit information, call the Illinois EPA Bureau of Air Permit Section at 217-782-2113. For information about the ordinance, suggested alternatives, exemptions and permit applications, visit the McHenry County Department of Health website at www. mcdh.info or call 815-334-4585. tives to open burning of landscape waste including: • Using a mulching mower for grass and leaves or a chipper for branches. • Using native landscaping, which will reduce the amount of yard waste. • Composting landscape waste, which can reduce material volume by 70 percent to 80 percent and the compost can be used as a soil conditioner to improve plant growth. Licensed municipal waste haulers in McHenry County are required to provide pickup of landscape waste from residential customers; an additional fee may apply. Residents also may drop off landscape waste at an approved compost facility or landscape waste transfer station; an additional fee may apply. For enforcement of open burning issues, call MCDH at 815-334-4585 (after hours at 815344-7421) or your local police or fire nonemergency number. Complete details about the ordinance, suggested alternatives, exemptions and permit applications are available online on MCDH’s webpage www.mcdh.info or by calling 815-334-4585.

“I believe Huntley’s northern portion generates a lot of traffic, and there is a lot of residents there who are missing out on service.” Suresh Patel Dunkin’ Donuts operator Kreutzer Road, in Huntley. “I believe Huntley’s northern portion generates a lot of traffic, and there is a lot of residents there who are missing out on service,” Patel said on the village’s second Dunkin’ Donuts.

Once he acquires the lot, he plans to market the development more aggressively. Smaller retailers could fill out the multi-tenant space, he said. As presented to the Village Board, the drive-thru Dunkin’ Donuts would occupy the northernmost space, spanning 1,643 square feet, in the proposed development. Village officials have said the space has room for three or four additional tenants. The board conceptually supported the project earlier this month, said Charles Nordman, the village’s development services director. Patel now has to submit formal design plans to the Plan Commission before the proposal goes back to the Village Board for final approval.

CRYSTAL LAKE

Crystal Lake going purple for lupus awareness NORTHWEST HERALD CRYSTAL LAKE – Efforts once again are underway to turn downtown Crystal Lake purple to raise both awareness and funding for the Lupus Foundation of America as part of Lupus Awareness Month in May. Bonnie Kassel of Crystal Lake, with the help of friend Regina Villalobos of Huntley, who suffers from the disease,

once again is organizing a Lupus Awareness Day. Kassel first began the campaign three years ago in hopes to educate the community and provide support for those suffering from the chronic, autoimmune disease her now 17-year-old daughter Taylor was diagnosed with in 2011. This year’s event is planned for May 9, and Kassel is asking businesses in Crystal Lake to donate 10 percent of their pro-

ALGONQUIN

New mobile reporting platform introduced NORTHWEST HERALD ALGONQUIN – Algonquin residents have a new way to report quality-of-life issues and requests to the village, with a mobile citizen reporting platform called Algonquin Fix It. According to a news release from the village, it will allow people to report concerns through service request categories via the Algonquin website, mobile applications on iPhones and Android phones, Faceb o o k a n d S e - John Schmitt eClickFix.com. “The system provides the village the opportunity to address community concerns in a new and innovative manner with increased efficiency,” said Village President John Schmitt in the news release.

“Furthermore, the reporting platform empowers citizens to participate in the improvement of their neighborhoods.” The system will allow residents to provide a location and photographs of whatever issue it is for which they are submitting a report, the release said. An alert will be sent to the person who submitted the report, the village, and anyone “watching” the area, at which point the village can acknowledge the issue, route it to the appropriate department, and update the request once it’s been resolved. This system is meant to allow people to view issues their fellow residents are submitting, while also providing data-driven information to the village before it delivers services to the community, the release said. For more information, visit algonquin.org.

ceeds that day to the cause, as in years past. Purple ribbons and signs will be placed throughout town, and the day will include raffles and other promotions. Kassel, who works at Benedict’s in downtown Crystal Lake, also is seeking donations of raffle items. Last year’s fundraiser drew gift baskets, homemade candles and soaps, knitted blankets, gift cards, sports tickets,

gardening supplies and more. Those interested in helping can contact Kassel at 815-3416190 or bonniekassel@comcast. net. “We’re trying to teach prevention, to let these people known they’re loved, they’re not forgotten about,” Kassel said of the effort. The money raised will go to the Lupus Foundation of America. The potentially fatal disease is unpredictable and

chronic and can be difficult to diagnose. In most people, the immune system protects the body against viruses, bacteria and other foreign substances, according to the Lupus Foundation of America. In lupus, the immune system loses its ability to tell the difference between good and bad, and creates antibodies that target the body’s own tissue. “It’s known as a silent dis-

ease. … I want to make something big of it,” Kassel said of her effort. “These people are suffering. We just love these people so much, and we want them to know they’re not alone. I don’t think anybody in the nation does anything like this.” Now a junior at Crystal Lake South High School, Taylor Kassel has been able to fight the disease through diet and other natural remedies, Bonnie Kassel said.

ALGONQUIN – The Algonquin Village Board last week approved the 2015-2016 budget, which includes the large purchase of a service vehicle for which the village has been saving funds, officials said. Village documents show the general fund, which plans for about $19.38 million in revenue, to have expenses about $260,000 in excess of that. In an email, Village Administrator Mike Kumbera explained, “The excess will be funded from past savings designated to exclusively fund larger one-time vehicle and equipment purchases.” The budget passed, Kumbera said, in a 6-0 vote.

Money raised at event to go to team’s fundraising goal for walk • FUNDRAISER Continued from page A3

Mike Greene for Shaw Media

Mike Neal speaks during the third annual Walk for The Brighter Side fundraiser Saturday at Nero’s Pizza & Pub in Algonquin. The event featured a photo booth, 50/50 raffle, a raffle with more than 70 prizes, speakers and a buffet donated by Nero’s Pizza & Pub. Money raised from the event will go toward the team’s fundraising goal for the walk for suicide prevention. “We decided we had to do ly, prevent them from going something,” Morgan said. through this kind of hurt, it’ll “If we can help just one fami- all be worth it.”

Move brings more jobs • PAPER Continued from page A3 The $2 million investment Spinelli has planned will nearly quadruple his current space. He said he plans to occupy an 80,000-square-foot portion of the former D.B. Hess property, after his company completes numerous renovations. Woodstock City Council members earlier this week also helped encourage the move. The council waived an estimated $15,000 in building permit fees to help offset the company’s renovation costs, city officials said. Spinelli also intends to ap-

ply for the city’s revolving loan program, which would make him the program’s first applicant. Officials created the program a few years ago to offer interested developers low-interest loans designed to help them relocate or expand, said Cort Carlson, community and economic development director. Spinelli’s move brings additional jobs into Woodstock and helps make the D.B. Hess building more marketable to prospective developers, he said. “Over the last couple of years, we’ve lost major employers, and this is a great first step to filling some of those vacant buildings,” Carlson said.

Among states, Ill. has the most government units at about 7K • TOWNSHIPS Continued from page A3 under a provision of state law that empowers county boards to do so. A county board can adopt a consolidation plan to put to voters, as long as no proposed township’s boundary exceeds 126 square miles. Voters in each proposed new township would have to approve their particular proposed consolidations – townships would consolidate where referendums pass, and stay separate where they fail. Successful consolidations approved by voters in 2016 would take effect with the 2017 township elections. Consolidation group chairman Mike Shorten, himself a Nunda Township trustee, said he was happy that the county is taking their effort seriously. He said he is confident the state’s attorney’s office will interpret the relevant statute the same way the group has. “I’m glad Mr. Gottemoller is doing due diligence, and I would expect nothing less,” Shorten said. Illinois has far more units of local government than any other state at just less than 7,000, and more than 1,400 of them are townships. While paring down the number of Illinois governments has long been a goal for

“I’m glad Mr. Gottemoller is doing due diligence, and I would expect nothing less.” Mike Shorten Consolidation group chairman

reform and watchdog groups, Gov. Bruce Rauner has made consolidation a top legislative priority. Townships under Illinois law have three statutory functions – property assessment, road maintenance and general assistance for needy constituents. While supporters of townships call them vital and the most direct and responsive government that taxpayers have, opponents call them unnecessary anachronisms that are rife with nepotism and patronage. Abolishing a county’s townships under Illinois law requires the more extreme step of voters eliminating the county board form of government and putting power in the hands of three elected county commissioners. The 17 Illinois counties under that model are all downstate, sparsely populated and almost entirely agricultural.

month in McHenry. Another close friend, Becca Morgan of Algonquin, said Saturday’s fundraiser included more than 70 raffle prizes, a photo booth run by Neal’s brother, and food provided by Nero’s. The money raised Saturday would go toward the team’s fundraising goal for the upcoming walk. While grieving for him, Morgan explained Neal’s large group of friends emerged from the tragedy impassioned and united behind a common cause. She, Shelby and Trish Neal all said their goal is to erase the stigma attached to mental illness and to help stop another young person from resorting to suicide.

Peters remains in jail on $3 million bond • LAWSUIT Continued from page A1 his Holiday Hills home on a domestic incident report. He remains in the McHenry County Jail in lieu of $3 million bond. Peters was served with notice of the latest legal action at the jail. Kriepke was charged in Cook County with giving Peters the gun despite the fact that his FOID card was revoked. According to court records, Peters’ weapons previously were confiscated and transferred to his aunt. Maness and Satkiewicz are recovering from their injuries, though Maness remains confined to a wheelchair. A third deputy, Eric Luna, was shot at, police said, but was uninjured. He is not a party in the lawsuit. The civil suit outlines the emotional and physical injuries the deputies endured

in what court documents described as an “intentional, extreme, outrageous and violent attack.” The deputies’ spouses also are listed on the lawsuit in four separate counts claiming they, too, were affected by the shooting. Prossnitz said he will closely watch the criminal prosecution of Peters when the trial begins on April 27, but he said the civil case is on a “separate but parallel track.” If convicted of the criminal charges against him, Peters is facing what amounts to a life sentence. If the civil lawsuit is successful and a judgment is taken against him, any future profit opportunities – a book deal or inheritance, for example – would go to the deputies. The civil case is set before McHenry County Judge Michael Caldwell. Judge Sharon Prather is presiding over Peters’ criminal proceedings.

In McHenry, aspiring firefighters need to be paramedics, too • FIREFIGHTING Continued from page A1 according to the National Fire Protection Association. Figures from an association survey indicate a 58.5 percent decrease in fire calls from 1980 to 2013. On the medical aid side, calls shot up 323 percent in that same time frame.

Explaining the trends “In terms of the decrease in fire calls, as a country we are becoming much more fire safe,” said Kenneth Willette, manager of the association’s public fire protection division. “We now have early warning, requiring the installation of smoke detectors and in some states, residential sprinkler systems. “We see the impact of modern fire codes in commercial and industrial buildings, requiring better fire detention and suppression systems – all of these things have made the country more fire safe.” He added that there are many reasons why firefighters more often respond to medical emergencies these days, noting the higher prevalence of certain health issues such as obesity and diabetes. And as the Bureau of Labor Statistics points out, the aging population is expected to be a factor in firefighter employment growth. The bureau has projected the role to grow 7 percent from 2012 to 2022 as elderly people typically use more emergency medical services.

Effects of the shift in services Locally, officials confirmed higher personnel numbers and ongoing recruiting, but couldn’t absolutely distinguish whether that has been because of the demand

for medical services or general population growth. However, Woodstock Fire Chief Ralph Webster did say officials there have been mulling the possibility of reallocating some of the existing personnel to address the shift. “We’re currently having discussions about putting additional resources toward handling the emergency medical calls and siphoning off resources dedicated to fire apparatus,” Webster said. “The primary reason we’re looking Ralph Webster at that is because our job has changed. “If our job changed from responding to and putting out fires to addressing emergency Tony Huemann medical [situations], then we want to look at how we can best address that change.” In the McHenry area, Huemann said any aspiring firefighters need to already be paramedics at the time of application, and typically will have a more formal education than what was once required. He also said today’s firefighters face more frequent training to maintain the skills being used less and less. “We have to spend more time training for fire calls because we’re not getting the experience we used to get,” he said. “I would say we’re asking personnel to perform some sort of training every day, and it did not used to be like that.”

Author: Lincoln embodies American ideal • LINCOLN Continued from page A1 front of Ford’s Theatre on a recent blustery morning, 9-year-old Luke Ring is near the front, wearing the blue cap of a Union soldier. “I like that he was president during the Civil War and he wanted freedom for the slaves,” says the boy, here with his family from Franklin, Tennessee, to see the theater box, draped in bunting, where Booth drew his pistol. Lincoln’s death elevated him to martyrdom, says Richard Wightman Fox, author of “Lincoln’s Body: A Cultural History.” Today, he still embodies the American ideal that anyone can reach the pinnacle. But with Lincoln now used to market auto insurance and barbecue sauce, the aura of sainthood has faded. Instead, for many, he is the approachable president, a “model for what it means to be a leader,” Fox says. From Washington, the funeral train traveled to Baltimore, then Philadelphia, where lines to view Lincoln’s body stretched three miles from Independence Hall. Then the nine-car procession continued north, retracing much of Lincoln’s 1861 route to the White House. Twenty years ago, Dave Kloke watched a documentary about Lincoln’s push to build the transcontinental railroad and became intrigued. So Kloke, owner of a home construction business, built a working replica of a 1860s steam engine. Over the past five years, Kloke has built an exact copy of the maroon car, with gold leaf and brass fittings. He had hoped to hook it to the locomotive and re-travel the funeral route, but couldn’t find financial sponsors. Still, in a workshop in Elgin, he is scrambling to finish painting and upholstering, intent on getting the car to Springfield by early May. Of Lincoln, Kloke says, “I just think he lived like I try to

Dave Kloke poses for a portrait April 2 in Elgin next to gold leaf work on his exact replica of the train car that carried President Abraham Lincoln’s coffin from Washington, D.C., to Springfield, Illinois.

Tim Hinrichs of California lifts his 6-year-old son Alex on Wednesday to rub the nose of a bust of Lincoln outside his tomb in Springfield. Local legend says rubbing the nose brings good luck.

Students from nearby Pleasant Plains Elementary study the photo of a 10-yearold soldier. “Holy smoke!” one

boy says. A doorway leads to a darkened chamber cradling a replica of Lincoln’s coffin. Daniel Stowell, director of the Papers of Abraham Lincoln at the neighboring presidential library, says we’re still wrestling with race, state’s rights and self-government. Lincoln still draws people looking for answers. Robert Davis recalls childhood in Detroit, hearing elders talk of his great-grandparents’ life after slavery and the family’s road north. Today, Davis, 72 and retired to Springfield, dons a Union uniform to re-enact the role of a runaway slave in

the U.S. Colored Troops. This month, he directs a play about abolition. “I think Lincoln was one of those men who could see through the fog of time, the fog of history, and he had a vision of a road for this country,” Davis says. “We’re not there yet. Ferguson showed us that ... but we’re still on that road.” On an overcast afternoon, travelers circle into Oak Ridge Cemetery. Ryan Harvey, with his parents from Gurnee, Illinois, rubs the nose on a bronze bust of Lincoln. “I can feel that he’s still here, somehow,” the 10-yearold says.

He grew up on his parents’ dairy farm in Oswego and graduated from East Aurora High School.

With all our love, The Luna Family

Hearing Loss Linked to Increased Risk of Dementia New Johns Hopkins study shows hearing loss more prevalent and linked to dementia

Shawn Burnham, H.I.S. Hearing Instrument Specialist

A patient receives a complimentary video otoscopic inspection where he is able to see inside his own ear canal on a large screen monitor.

Have you ever avoided a social gathering because you were afraid of feeling lost in the conversation? Have you felt exhausted un_oa `_aujdjdm _c loua jd u pjnvq^h_ hj`_odjdm situation, and kept away from people for a while afterward? If so, you may be experiencing the social isolation common to hearing loss and recently identified as a possible factor in the development of dementia. “Researchers have looked at what affects hearing loss, but few have looked at how hearing loss affects cognitive brain function,” says study leader Frank Lin, M.D., Ph.D., assistant professor in the Division of Otology at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Lin and his team used studied over 600 volunteers whose hearing and cognitive abilities were tested as part of a long-term multidimensional study called the Baltimore Longitudinal Study on Aging (BLSA) established in 1958. About a quarter of the volunteers had hearing loss at the start of the study, but none of them had dementia. Participants were closely followed with repeat exams every year or two for nearly 20 years. Researchers found that those who had hearing loss at the beginning of the study were `jmdjvqud_ht ecao hjioht _c po]ohcb poeod_ju by the end. Of those participants who started

with hearing loss, 36% developed dementia over the course of the study. “Compared to individuals with normal hearing, those individuals with a mild, moderate, and severe hearing loss, respectively, had a respective 2, 3 and 5 fold increased risk of developing dementia over the course of the study,” reports Dr. Lin. In a separate study, Johns Hopkins reported that the hearing loss rate in older adults has climbed to more than 60 percent in a national survey. “A lot of people ignore hearing loss because it’s such a slow and insidious process as we age,” Lin says. “Even if people feel as if they are not affected, we’re showing that it may well be a more serious problem.” Further research is needed to determine the exact reasons why dementia and hearing loss are connected. However, one possibility proposed in the study is that dementia may result in part from the social isolation inherent in hearing loss, which is a known risk factor for this and other cognitive disorders. I don’t mean to scare you, but this study `quaop eor [_ _lo ]oat hou`_s j_ qcdvae` _lo need to maintain your hearing health. Hearing loss can happen so gradually it is hard to detect on your own. Regular hearing checks can help you identify loss early, and early is the key. If caught in time, intervention—like hearing

aids—may help to delay or even prevent qcmdj_j]o pjnvq^h_jo`r Perhaps more to the point, hearing aids can help you hear and understand the conversations that matter most to you right now. Hearing aids have come a long way in the last few years. These modern devices are so discreet you won’t need to worry about what others might think. They’ll only know that you’re hearing and understanding better. State of the art technology also allows hearing aids to do more than ever before. Advanced feedback cancelation and speech preservation features are designed to provide a more natural listening experience and better comprehension. Most models also come with multiple channels that you can program for `boqjvq hj`_odjdm od]jacdeod_`r fcs jn tc^ eat out a lot, you can program your hearing aids with settings that will help reduce the background noise and focus on conversations in front of you. The bottom line is this: hearing aids can help to prevent hearing loss from robbing you of the things you value most—your connection to those you love. Please take steps to make sure your hearing is in good health. Make an appointment with a qualified hearing professional today. -BY SHAWN BURNHAM, H.I.S.

Raise hurdles for repeat DUI offenders James Stitt unwittingly has become the poster child for stricter laws to prevent repeat drunken drivers from putting more lives in jeopardy. Stitt was 23 when he caused a crash that eventually killed Caitln Weese, 17, who was driving near Gilberts to her Wonder Lake home in May 2003. It wasn’t the first time Stitt had been caught driving drunk. Even at his young age, Stitt had two prior DUI convictions. Stitt was sentenced to seven For the record and a half years in prison and was People make mistakes, but given his driver’s allowing repeat offenders to license back in make the same mistake over 2013 – about four again and handing them their years after is driver’s license without signifirelease. He was charged again with cant obstacles is the state of Illinois’ mistake. DUI in November 2014. Weese’s stepfather, Joel Mains, was rightly outraged that the man who killed his stepdaughter even had the opportunity to pick up his fourth DUI arrest while driving with a valid driver’s license. He’s been pressing lawmakers, including his former political opponent state Rep. Barbara Wheeler, R-Crystal Lake, for legal reforms. Under the law, DUI offenders who are eligible to get their license back are required to drive for one year with an ignition interlock device that prevents their car from starting if they blow more than a .025 blood alcohol content. It’s removed if they complete that year successfully. Wheeler and Mains helped craft House Bill 3533, which would prevent repeat DUI offenders from applying for their unrestricted licenses until they’ve gone five years on restricted driving privilege. It also increases the duration of the interlock device to five years. No one is naive enough to think some repeat drunken drivers won’t break the law anyway and continue to drive drunk – only counseling can help them. Unfortunately, this happens often, but those drivers put themselves at great legal and financial risks even if they are driving sober illegally. But the thought of the state legally sanctioning repeat drunken drivers by giving them unfettered privileges without very high hurdles to jump puts the rest of us – including promising young lives such as that of Caitlin Weese’s – at risk. People make mistakes, but allowing repeat offenders to make the same mistake over again and handing them their driver’s license without significant obstacles is the state of Illinois’ mistake. It’s a mistake that should be corrected through this legislation.

Compromising truth Columbia Journalism School’s eviscerating report on Rolling Stone’s now-discredited article about the alleged gang rape of an unnamed female student at the University of Virginia comes in the midst of an impassioned national debate about sexual assault on campus. But let’s not get confused: The issue at hand is not whether students are being sexually assaulted or whether universities are too lax or too lenient on perpetrators. Rather, it is whether and how journalists can honestly and responsibly cover these complicated subjects. In this case, the journalists failed. The reporter and her editors at Rolling Stone failed to verify basic information from their source, and they failed to contact the people who could have corroborated – or contradicted – the story. They did not provide members of the fraternity where the attack supposedly took place with detailed allegations to which they could respond. After the reporter tried but failed to locate the alleged perpetrator, the magazine simply used a pseudonym to write about him. To hear Rolling Stone tell it, those oversights came about because the reporter wanted to be particularly sensitive to a woman who claimed to be the victim of a sexual assault. The reporter apparently didn’t want to traumatize her any further. But it is unacceptable to compromise the truth in the name of sensitivity. Of course journalists who interview victims of violent crimes and their families should be kind and respectful. As we all know, sexual assault has been viewed in society as such a stigmatizing occurrence that victims have often been reluctant even to report it. Many newspapers, including The Times, do not print the names of rape victims. But none of that excuses media organizations from their responsibility to diligently and thoroughly examine the cases they cover. Covering sexual assault is complicated. Even the basic statistics about how common assaults are on campus are being challenged. In this fraught climate, for a publication like Rolling Stone to come at a story with a preconceived point of view and then botch the reporting does no one any good. Los Angeles Times

AMENDMENT

IT’S YOUR WRITE Skip the butts To the Editor: I read your opinion page with great interest March 17. I myself despise littering; don’t do it, never have. My car is sometimes cluttered with soda and water bottles. I go home, put them in the recycle bin. If the ashtray is full, I dump it in the garbage can. Who cares about a few butts in the storm sewer catch basin? It’s vacuumed yearly for the leaves anyway. What a great use of time to pass such an important law regarding cigarette butts. I feel an important item has been overlooked regarding litter. I lived in Florida for a time but recently returned. I recall the McHenry County Department of Transportation had a fence around its property across from the McDonald’s in Woodstock. Shortly after the golden arches appeared, the fence was coated with litter. You don’t notice it so much now. It blows across a maze of parking lots and ends up on the fairgrounds fence abutting Jewel. Do you think every car that pulls out of McDonald’s throws litter? I doubt it. A little east to Zimmerman Road are nice residences on the east side of the road, apartments and complexes on the west. Again, nice homes, yards and vacant land are coated with litter. Do you think every person in Woodstock drives

down this little road to litter? I think not. My point is, let’s address businesses or cheap landlords who do not provide enough or proper storage of customer or tenants’ garbage. Skip the butts. Frank Ryan Woodstock

Thank God for America To the Editor: My letter last month ended with a concern about the old age of some career politicians. This can be corrected by establishing a mandatory retirement age of 65 years old, not only for elected officials but for all government employees. Another serious problem in state and federal government is compensation. Some outlandish examples are a small-town sheriff receiving compensation in excess of $200,000 a year. Some school teachers no longer qualified to teach school are required to be at school every school day. They sit in a room with other unqualified teachers until they are able to retire on full pension. A goal for all citizens of the U.S. is an honest day’s pay for an honest day’s work. In private industry, if unions or other forces cause employee compensation to become more than the company can afford,

the company goes out of business or moves to another location where the company can control its employees’ compensation. In the case of government employees, if wages get too high, caused by union demands or other forces, to stay in budget, taxes are raised. A system must be established that will assure equality of wages for government employees to that of comparable employees working in private industry. Many states are close to bankruptcy because of this. See next month for additional recommended changes. Clifford Evenson Johnsburg

of Coral Township. Why? Because they would not pay to have the service anymore. Don’t the residents of Union and Coral Township pay taxes? Where is that tax money going? If Pace can leave Marengo and take people to Huntley, bypassing and going through Union, what is wrong with this picture? Maybe Coral Township should come up with a way to fund Pace. I haven’t seen any improvements in Union or Coral Township, so where is the money going? The village president of Union is also the township commissioner – maybe they should be two different people due to a conflict of interest. And maybe the residents of Coral Township and Union should start looking into this and find out the real reasons behind Pace being stopped – quit complaining, and do something about it.

Carly Fiorina a woman of accomplishment When people speak of “the first woman president,” they usually mean Hillary Clinton, who is expected to announce her candidacy soon. But there’s another woman, a Republican, who will shortly vie for the top job. She is Carly Fiorina, former CEO of HewlettPackard. The polls don’t register much support for Fiorina, but if people listen to what she has to say, particularly about Hillary Clinton, that could change. In an interview, Fiorina told me that, unlike a male candidate, she could better take on Hillary Clinton: “No matter what that man says, she will play the gender card or the war on women card. She won’t be able to do that with me.” Fiorina believes Clinton has a poor record: “I come from a world where speeches are not accomplishments. Activity isn’t accomplishment. Title isn’t accomplishment. I come from a world where you have to actually do something; you have to produce results. ... [The presidency] is a very difficult job, and we ascertain someone’s capability to do the job based not on their great speeches, but on what they’ve actually done.” She thinks the media has

VIEWS Cal Thomas overblown Hillary Clinton’s accomplishments and foreign policy experience and believes her accomplishments are more impressive. In 2012, after leaving Hewlett-Packard, Fiorina served as the vice chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee and is chairman of the American Conservative Union Foundation, global ambassador for Opportunity International and board chairman of Good360. She says she has traveled the world and met many world leaders, including the leaders of Saudi Arabia and Vladimir Putin. “Putin is our adversary,” she said, and “a formidable man. Iran is our adversary.” She wants to push back by “doing what our allies have asked us to do. ... The Ukrainians have asked for us to arm them. The Baltic States have asked us to defend them. Our own military people have said we need to reinforce the Sixth Fleet. We ought to rebuild our European missile defenses in Poland. President

Obama unilaterally and inexplicably pulled those out.” Fiorina says her meetings with Putin have convinced her of his “lust for power. You can’t push a reset button with him,” a reference to Clinton’s red button theatrics with the Russian foreign minister. “Our allies have asked us to do very specific things that are wise,” she said. And these are? “Stop talking to Iran ... King Abdullah [of Jordan], who I have also known for a very long time, has asked us for ... bombs and material for support. We haven’t given it to him. The Kurds have asked us to arm them. We haven’t done it. The Egyptians have asked us to share intelligence. We haven’t. ... There are a whole set of things we could be doing that would send a clear signal we stand with our allies and that we’re going to oppose our adversaries. And we’re sending the opposite signals.” On the uproar over Indiana’s Religious Freedom Law, since amended, Fiorina said, “I think it is a typical tactic of liberals to divide and conquer through identity politics.” She calls for “a balanced, tolerant discussion about core principles” that

allows people with different beliefs to co-exist, rather than government forcing one belief on those who do not share it. Fiorina doesn’t shy away from social issues, noting that some polls show younger people are more pro-life and that a large majority would restrict abortions after 20 weeks. Fiorina is openly Christian, telling me she drifted from faith in her 30s and 40s, but was challenged a few years ago by a pastor friend to rediscover Jesus. She said she did and now has “a very personal relationship with Jesus Christ.” She said her faith sustained her through the death of her stepdaughter and her own battle with breast cancer. Such openness and specificity about her faith is likely to endear her to the Republican base. Fiorina is impressive. Whether she can win the nomination, or perhaps the number two spot (which she refuses to talk about) we’ll know soon enough. But watch her in the coming debates and see if you don’t notice a little Margaret Thatcher in her. Like Thatcher, Fiorina is tough and smart.

Residents return to Fairdale, 2 days after tornado hit The ASSOCIATED PRESS FAIRDALE – Residents of a small northern Illinois farming community that took a direct hit from a half-mile-wide tornado were allowed back into the area Saturday to assess damage and salvage what they could. The DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office bused residents into Fairdale at 7 a.m. so they could begin to take stock of what was left of their property. Seeing the wreckage up close for the first time since Thursday’s storms left some amazed that they survived. “I thought my parents were dead,” said 32-year-old Adam Davis, who hopped into his truck Thursday and raced along with the tornado in the hopes of getting to his parents’ house and rescuing them before the twister struck. He found them standing in their doorway frozen in disbelief and grabbed them just in time. On Saturday, he was helping collect what could be salvaged from his childhood home, now full of debris, its roof ripped off and its windows broken. “It’s not necessarily the mementos yet; it’s the essentials for now. One step at a time,” he said. Eight tornadoes roared across northern and central Illinois during Thursday’s storms, the National Weather Service confirmed Saturday. The strongest hit Fairdale, where two people were killed. That tornado also injured 22 people. The weather service gave it a preliminary EF4 rating – its second strongest – with winds of between 180 and 200 mph. It was a half-mile wide and remained on the ground for at least 28.7 miles, a record long path for that part of Illinois.

Al Zammuto, 60, was preparing to inspect what was left of the roof on a former schoolhouse that he had been transforming into his home over the past year. He will have to start over. “I don’t know how much of the roof came off,” he said. “I’m going to climb a ladder later today and see.” Zammuto was staying with his sister down the road, and many of the displaced appeared to have been taken in by friends and relatives. No one stayed overnight at a shelter set up at the fire station in nearby Kirkland, said deputy fire chief Mike Stott. In all, some 70 buildings were destroyed or damaged in Fairdale, authorities said. Another 50 buildings were hit in nearby Rochelle. All buildings have been searched, but not all residents have been accounted for, so cadaver dogs are being used in parts of DeKalb County, the Illinois State Police said late Friday. The tornado blew numerous vehicles from nearby interstates, and troopers helped rescue a trapped driver in an overturned semitrailer. One of the tornadoes also struck the Summerfield Zoo in Belvidere, killing an emu and a black swan. As the cleanup began, tales of survival continued to emerge. Kelly Newman, 46, lost her Rochelle home. For her, the storm began with a moment of playful wonder at the size of the hail. She ran outside to collect some of the pieces to put it in the freezer to show her children. “Then I noticed to the southwest there was a huge black funnel thing, but it didn’t look like a tornado because it was just way too wide,” she said.

STATE BRIEFS Judge overturns order restricting union dues BELLEVILLE – A St. Clair County judge has issued an order requiring Illinois government agencies to immediately reinstate mandatory union dues for nonmembers. Gov. Bruce Rauner last month issued an executive order ending the dues, which nonmembers are required to pay to

cover the cost of non-political union activities that benefit all employees. Friday’s order by Associate Judge Christopher Kolker requires the Rauner administration to “remit fair share fees pending the resolution of the case,” and to transmit “the correct payroll information” regarding gross pay for affected employees to Illinois’

comptroller.

FBI to monitor probe into shooting of Zion teen WAUKEGAN – Lake County State’s Attorney Michael Nerheim says he is closely monitoring the investigation into the shooting death by a Zion police officer of a northeastern Illinois teenager. In a statement Friday,

Nerheim said he has asked the FBI to monitor and review the investigation into 17-year-old Justus Howell’s death. He said the agency has agreed to do so. Nerheim said the Lake County Major Crimes Task Force has been interviewing all witnesses and collecting all the relevant evidence related to Howell’s death.

Hundreds gather to pay respects to slain S.C. man The ASSOCIATED PRESS SUMMERVILLE, S.C. – The death of a black man shot in the back while fleeing a white police officer was the act of a racist cop, a minister told hundreds who gathered Saturday for the funeral of Walter Scott. “All of us have seen the video,” the Rev. George Hamilton, the minister at W.O.R.D. Ministries Christian Center, told an overflow congregation. “There is no doubt in my mind and I feel that Walter’s death was motivated by racial prejudice.” Authorities have not said whether race was a factor in the shooting. Scott was a father of four and Coast Guard veteran whose death sparked outrage as another instance of a white law officer fatally shooting an unarmed black man under questionable circumstances.

The shooting last weekend in North Charleston was captured on a dramatic cellphone camera video by a man who was walking past. About 450 people including U.S. Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., and U.S. Rep. Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., the two black members of South Carolina’s congressional delegation, gathered in the sanctuary of the church where Scott had worshipped. About 200 more people waited outside beneath the portico of the church or under umbrellas in the rain because the sanctuary had reached capacity. Hamilton called Michael Slager – the officer involved in the shooting and who has been charged with murder and fired – a disgrace to the Charleston Police Department. “This particular cop was a racist. You don’t Tase a man and then shoot,” the minister

FRESNO, Calif. – As California struggles with a devastating drought, huge amounts of water are mysteriously vanishing from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta – and the prime suspects are farmers whose families have tilled fertile soil there for generations. A state investigation was launched following complaints from two large agencies that supply water to arid farmland in the Central Valley and to millions of residents as far south as San Diego. Delta farmers don’t deny

using as much water as they need. But they say they’re not stealing it because their history of living at the water’s edge gives them that right. Still, they have been asked to report how much water they’re pumping and to prove their legal rights to it. At issue is California’s century-old water rights system that has been based on self-reporting and little oversight, historically giving senior water rights holders the ability to use as much water as they need, even in drought. Gov. Jerry Brown has said that if drought continues this system

Obama, Castro vow to turn the page at summit The ASSOCIATED PRESS AP photo

Judy Scott (seated at left) is comforted Saturday during the burial of her son, Walter Scott, while seated next to her husband, Walter Scott Sr., in Charleston, S.C. Scott was killed by a North Charleston police officer after a traffic stop April 4. said. But he added “we will not indict the entire law enforcement community for the act of one racist.” Hamilton said the Scott family could take comfort in the fact that Slager was captured on the video, was charged and will face justice. Scott was remembered as a gentle soul and a born-again Christian. “He was not perfect,” the minister said, adding that nobody is. The two-hour service included spirituals and remem-

brances of the 50-year-old Scott. Those who waited outside were able to enter at the end of the service and file by Scott’s open casket covered in an American flag and surrounded with sprays of flowers. Scott’s family arrived in a fleet of three black limousines followed by several other vehicles. Dozens waiting outside held up their cellphones trying to capture the scene as Scott’s casket was unloaded from the hearse and wheeled inside.

built into California’s legal framework will probably need to be examined. Delta farmer Rudy Mussi says he has senior water rights, putting him in line ahead of those with lower ranking, or junior, water rights. “If there’s surplus water, hey, I don’t mind sharing it,” Mussi said. “I don’t want anybody with junior water rights leapfrogging my senior water rights just because they have more money and more political clout.” The fight pitting farmer against farmer is playing out

in the Delta, the hub of the state’s water system. With no indication of the drought easing, heightened attention is being placed on dwindling water throughout the state, which produces nearly half of the fruits, nuts and vegetables grown in the U.S. A large inland estuary east of San Francisco, the Delta is fed by rivers of freshwater flowing down from the Sierra Nevada and northern mountain ranges. Located at sea level, it consists of large tracts of farmland separated by rivers that are subject to tidal ebbs and flows.

PANAMA CITY – President Barack Obama and Cuba’s Raul Castro sat down together Saturday in the first formal meeting of the two country’s leaders in a half-century, pledging to reach for the kind of peaceful relationship that has eluded their nations for generations. In a conference room in a Panama City convention center, the two sat side by side in a bid to inject momentum into their months-old effort to restore diplomatic ties. Reflecting on the historic nature of the meeting, Obama said he felt it was time to try something new and to engage with both Cuba’s government and its people. “What we have both concluded is that we can disagree with a spirit of respect and civility,” Obama said. “And over time, it is possible for us to turn the page and develop a new relationship between our two countries.” Castro, for his part, said he agreed with everything Obama had said – a stunning statement in and of itself for the Cuban leader. But he added the caveat that they had “agreed to disagree” at times. Castro said he had told the Americans that Cuba was willing to discuss issues such as human rights and freedom of the press, maintaining that “everything can be on the table.” “We are disposed to talk about everything – with patience,” Castro said in Span-

ish. “Some things we will agree with, and others we won’t.” Not since 1958 have a U.S. and Cuban leader convened a substantial meeting; at the time, Dwight Eisenhower was in the White House and Fulgencio Batista in charge in Cuba. But relations entered into a deep freeze amid the Cold War, and the U.S. spent decades trying to either isolate or actively overthrow the Cuban government. Coincidentally, Eisenhower’s meeting with Batista in 1958 also took place in Panama, imbuing Saturday’s session between Obama and Castro with a sense of having come full circle. The historic gathering played out on the sidelines of the Summit of the Americas, which this year included Cuba for the first time. Although the meeting wasn’t publicly announced in advance, White House aides had suggested the two leaders were looking for an opportunity to meet while in Panama and to discuss the ongoing efforts to open embassies in Havana and Washington, among other issues. At the start of their hour-long meeting, Obama acknowledged that Cuba, too, would continue raising concerns about U.S. policies – earning a friendly smirk from Castro. Obama described the sit-down later as “candid and fruitful” and said he and Castro were able to speak about their differences in a productive way.

Man shoots self, triggers U.S. Capitol lockdown WASHINGTON – A precautionary lockdown of the U.S. Capitol has been lifted after shots were fired in an apparent suicide. Capitol Police spokeswoman Kimberly Schneider said a man died after shooting himself on the west front of the Capitol building, which triggered a roughly two-hour lockdown. No one else was hurt. During the lockdown, no one was allowed to enter or exit the Capitol and the visitors’ center on what was a busy day for tourists. Some streets around the complex also were closed during the lockdown, which came during Washington’s popular annual Cherry Blossom Festival. Congress has been on spring break for two weeks and lawmakers are set to return to work Monday.

in Salt Lake City held a baby shower Saturday for a big-eyed, spikey-haired little boy named Tuah. A handful of animal keepers at Hogle Zoo found themselves with a tiny red-headed charge when the zoo’s female Bornean orangutan, Eve, died a few weeks after giving birth. Now 5 months old, the 14inch, 11-pound baby Tuah is just starting to crawl. Bobbi Gordon said the primate handlers who provided aroundthe-clock care for the infant “lived like an orangutan.” Orangutans spend most of their time in trees, so an infant orangutan’s instinct is to cling to his mother’s fur while she builds nests and scavenges for food. So Tuah couldn’t be put in a crib like a human baby. He needed to constantly hang onto someone, even while sleeping.

Paper towels, toilet tissue Police: Teen takes cash, hands it out to classmates uses for wheat straw

Orphaned baby orangutan ready for his public debut

WICHITA, Kan. – The maker of Kleenex and Scott brand products is unveiling this month a line of tissues and towels incorporating wheat straw and bamboo. Kimberly-Clark Professional aims to provide a rapidly renewable source of fiber for its pulp mill and environmentally friendly products aimed at its commercial customers. It also contends that the products containing 20 percent wheat straw will also give farmers a market for the plant residue left after harvest. The Georgia-based company said use of straw fiber will ease demand for tree fiber and recycled paper. The company said it is the first time that wheat straw has been used by a major manufacturer on this large a scale in the United States to make bath tissue and paper towels.

SALT LAKE CITY – Zoo officials

– Wire reports

MEDINA, Ohio – Police in Ohio say a middle school student took $25,000 from his grandfather and later started handing out $100 bills to his classmates. Authorities said the 13-yearold gave out thousands of dollars this week before schools officials discovered what was happening. Investigators in the northeastern Ohio city of Medina have recovered about $7,000 so far. Police told The Medina Gazette they’re still trying to figure out how the boy got the money from his 83-year-old grandfather. They say it’s too early to know if charges will be filed. School officials heard about the cash giveaway on Wednesday. But by that time, police said some of the money already had been spent.

Congress returns to work Monday Faces fights over Medicare, Iran and Lynch The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Racing the calendar, Senate leaders are pushing toward congressional approval of a bipartisan compromise that reshapes how Medicare pays physicians as lawmakers return from a spring break tangled up in domestic and foreign policy disputes. Republican and Democratic senators are trying to influence an emerging nuclear deal with Iran, and there’s a fight over abortion. Also, President Barack Obama is awaiting Senate action on his long-delayed nomination of federal prosecutor Loretta Lynch to become attorney general. For Senate Democrats, the two-week break proved tumultuous. Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., announced he will not run for re-election in 2016. Reid anointed Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., to succeed him, creating uncertainty over the rest of their leadership posts.

The Capitol building is seen May 5 through the columns on the steps of the Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. Racing the calendar, Senate leaders are pushing toward final congressional approval of a bipartisan compromise reshaping how Medicare pays physicians as Congress returns from a two-week spring recess ensnarled over domestic and foreign policy issues. New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez was indicted on federal corruption charges and relinquished his job as top Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, just as it plays a pivotal role on Iran. The Medicare doctors’ legislation presents Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., with his most pressing problem. The $214 billion package would permanently retool how Medicare reimburses physicians and it also would provide money for

children’s health, community health centers, low-income patients and rural hospitals. The normally divided House rallied behind the measure last month with a 392-37 vote. Eager to signal that Republicans now running the Senate can do so effectively, McConnell said the bill would be handled “very quickly” when lawmakers return and he envisioned passage “by a very large majority.” The measure would block a 21 percent cut in physi-

cians’ Medicare reimbursements that technically took effect April 1. By law, the federal agency that writes those checks can’t do so until 14 days after it receives a claim, and it plans to start making payments at the lower rate on Wednesday. The federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services makes roughly 4 million Medicare payments to doctors daily. The Senate returns to work Monday, which gives leaders two days to finish the bill or risk fielding complaints from physicians and seniors. Doctors say payment cuts make them less likely to treat patients of Medicare, which helps the elderly pay medical bills. McConnell’s biggest problem is that senators from both parties are clamoring to amend the legislation, which was a rare compromise between House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of California. Congressional aides and lobbyists say conservatives, including GOP Sens. Jeff Sessions of Alabama, Ben Sasse of Nebraska, and Mike Lee of Utah, want to require savings so the measure will not add a projected $141 billion to federal deficits over the coming decade.

Clinton’s potential party rivals plug away in Iowa The ASSOCIATED PRESS DES MOINES, Iowa – The Hillary Rodham Clinton juggernaut is coming to Iowa. Martin O’Malley already has beaten her to the early-voting state. The former Maryland governor was in a Des Moines tavern this past week, playing guitar and singing Irish folk tunes. He had a lunch with Democratic activists in the college town of Ames, and spent Friday night talking up his populist economic message at a party banquet in the capital. For months, O’Malley has largely had Iowa to himself as Clinton slow-played her entry into the 2016 race for race. O’Malley’s Iowa advantage, if there was one at all, should be coming to an end

Sunday when Clinton planned to make her much-anticipated announcement that she’s running for the nomination for a second time. Clinton fell short in 2008 against Barack Obama. A trip to Iowa is expected to follow soon afterward. “I think the people of Iowa wake up every morning looking toward the future, and they believe inherently that we’re served by new leadership,” O’Malley said Friday night in Des Moines. Technically, Clinton would be the first Democrat to enter the race. Others, including Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, former Sen. Jim Webb of Virginia and former Gov. Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island, are exploring whether to run. O’Malley has done the

most as a potential Clinton challenger. He has reached out to Iowa for the past three years, first meeting with the Iowa delegation at the Democratic National Convention in 2012 before speaking at then-Sen. Tom Harkin’s annual picnic fundraiser that fall. Martin In his last O’Malley Iowa appearance before Clinton’s expected entry, O’Malley called for renewing the American dream on time-tested Democratic principles. “To make the dream come true again, we must fight for better wages for all workers, so that Americans can support their families on what

Tax Day extra difficult for many gay married couples The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – A necessary burden for most Americans, Tax Day is an accounting nightmare for thousands of gay and lesbian couples as they wrestle with the uneven legal status of same-sex marriage in the United States. They live in a country that recognizes their marriages, but some reside in the 13 states that do not, an issue that will be argued before the Supreme Court later this month. At tax time, and Wednesday is the filing deadline, it gets complicated because most state income tax returns use information from a taxpayer’s federal return. Straight couples simply copy numbers from one form to another. But that doesn’t work for same-sex couples

reporting combined incomes, deductions and exemptions on their federal tax returns. These couples must untangle their finances on their state returns, where they are still considered single. “We’re adults, we’re contributing to the welfare of society and yet, here’s this one thing that just reaches up every year and kind of slaps us in the face,” said Brian Wilbert, an Episcopal priest who lives in Oberlin, a small college town in northern Ohio. Wilbert married his husband, Yorki Encalada, in 2012, at a ceremony in upstate New York. He is filing a joint federal tax return for the second time this year. But Ohio, which doesn’t recognize samesex marriages, requires the couple to file their state tax returns as if they were single.

“It may not be the most burning thing,” Wilbert said. “But as we think about equality and marriage equality, this is an important thing because it’s part of what couples do.” The number of states that recognize same-sex marriages has grown to 37, plus the District of Columbia, since the Supreme Court struck down part of the federal Defense of Marriage Act in 2013. After the ruling, the IRS announced that it would recognize same-sex marriages for federal tax purposes, even if couples lived in states that did not. The Supreme Court is scheduled hear arguments in another same-sex marriage case April 28. Advocates hope the court will compel the remaining states to recognize gay and lesbian marriages.

they earn,” O’Malley said at a party dinner Friday night in Des Moines. For the most part, he has steered clear of publicly criticizing Clinton. He has focused on the long, disciplined march of a serious candidate who knows he is an underdog. Hillary O’Malley Rodham has visited Clinton Iowa six times since the start of last year. He put 14 staffers to work on Iowa campaigns during last year’s election and has hired one for his potential campaign. “The great thing about Iowa and New Hampshire is that people insist on meeting all of the candidates before

they make a decision,” O’Malley said. That’s not just O’Malley’s line, either. Even with Clinton in the race, many of the party loyalists who will brave a winter night in Iowa in February to choose a candidate at caucus sites say they want a contest, not a coronation. “I’m going to see what they all have to say,” said Geri Frederiksen of Council Bluffs. She waited three hours on Thursday to see a flight-delayed Webb at the western Iowa city’s public library. Both Frederiksen and her friend, Dolores Bristol, said they are worried that a perfunctory nominating contest might not stir enough enthusiasm among Iowa Democrats to power a victory for the eventually nominee in No-

vember 2016. Iowa is expected to be among the most contested states in the general election. “Clinton seems like she’s the one. Do I have the fervor for her that I did for Obama? No,” Bristol said. “But O’Malley is very charismatic, and more progressive, which a lot of Iowa Democrats like.” Surveys of voters this far ahead of the February caucuses have limited value, but Clinton did lead by more than 50 percentage points in a recent Iowa Poll. Both Webb and O’Malley were rated the first choice of 3 percent and 1 percent of voters, respectively, in a poll with a margin of error of 4.9 percentage points. But Clinton had a big lead in 2007, too, before she was upset by then-Illinois Sen. Obama in the 2008 caucuses.

8 WORLD • Sunday, April 12, 2015 • Section B • Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com WORLD BRIEFS Thai junta links bombing to political turmoil BANGKOK – Thailand’s military government says a car bomb explosion on the popular holiday island of Samui that injured seven people could be the work of the junta’s opponents. According to government spokesman said Maj. Gen. Sansern Kaewkamnerd, initial reports indicate the attack was carried out by the same group behind recent blasts in Bangkok, which caused no fatalities. He did not elaborate, but the leader of the junta that took power in a coup last May has blamed the Bangkok blasts on groups opposed to the military takeover. The improvised bomb late Friday was hidden in a pickup truck and went off in the basement parking area of the Central Festival mall.

Movie men to create alternative to fast-food MOSCOW – Two of Russia’s best-known movie directors are aiming to create a chain of fastfood restaurants that would be an alternative to Western-style operations such as McDonald’s. The move by Nikita Mikhalkov and Andrei Konchalovsky, who are brothers, comes amid growing animosity toward the West, especially the United States, over the conflict in Ukraine. But even before those tensions emerged, many Russians watched uneasily as Western fast-food outlets spread vigorously. Mikhalkov and Konchalovsky proposed the project, called “Eat at Home,” in a letter to President Vladimir Putin last month that said the goal was “the creation of an alternative to Western fast-food chains,” the newspaper Kommersant reported. The business news agency RBC reported Thursday that the government will back a bank loan of $13 million for the project.

Survivors, vets recall Buchenwald horror The ASSOCIATED PRESS WEIMAR, Germany – Buchenwald survivor Henry Oster recalls thinking that a fellow inmate had “lost his sense of reality” when he said 70 years ago Saturday that the concentration camp was being liberated, bringing an end to the long ordeal of the 21,000 surviving prisoners. Oster, 86, visited the site near the German city of Weimar for the first time since its liberation on April 11, 1945 – one of a group of survivors and veterans who came to mark the anniversary of the liberation. Buchenwald was the first major concentration camp entered by American forces at the end of World War II. “What I see here, where the barracks used to be, at every barrack there was a pile of dead bodies, this is in your memory forever,” Oster said. “When someone asks how Buchenwald was, you immediately see the dead bodies again.” Around 250,000 prisoners in total were held at Buchenwald from its opening in July 1937 to its liberation.

Buchenwald survivor Henry Oster (center right) and veteran medic James E. Anderson (center), who was with the U.S. liberation troops, lay down flowers with other veterans before a minute of silence Saturday to mark the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the former Nazi concentration camp Buchenwald near in Weimar, Germany. An estimated 56,000 people were killed, including political prisoners, people dubbed “asocial” by the Nazis, Soviet prisoners of war, Sinti and Roma, and approximately

11,000 Jews. Oster, a Jewish German born in Cologne, was taken to the Lodz ghetto in occupied Poland in 1941 and later to the Auschwitz-Birkenau death

camp. His father died of starvation and his mother was gassed on the day they arrived at Auschwitz, he said. In January 1945, Oster was sent on a “death march”

to Buchenwald as the Nazis forced inmates westward in the face of advancing Soviet forces. Entering the former camp through the wrought-iron gate that bears the words “Jedem das Seine” – “To each his own” – with its clock stopped at 3:15, the time of the liberation, Oster recalled that moment. “We had no idea the Allies were in Europe, and when we heard noises at about a quarter past three, we looked out of the window – which took a great effort – and one of my friends said with a weak voice ‘I think we are getting liberated,’” Oster said. “And we thought he had lost his sense of reality like so many people there.” Oster was taken to an orphanage in France and emigrated to the United States in 1946. He now lives in Woodland Hills, California. A minute of silence was held Saturday afternoon at the tree-ringed hilltop site’s former assembly ground, bringing together former inmates and liberators – on whom Buchenwald also left an indelible impression.

Exhibition honors Polish couple who saved Jews The ASSOCIATED PRESS WARSAW, Poland – It was World War II, Warsaw was under German occupation, and the wife of the director of the Warsaw zoo spotted Nazis approaching the white stucco villa that she and her family inhabited on the zoo grounds. According to plan, she went straight to her piano and began to play a lively tune from an operetta by Jacques Offenbach, a signal to Jews being sheltered in the house that they should be quiet and not leave their hiding places. That scenario, repeated

over years of war, was one of the tricks that allowed Jan and Antonina Zabinski to save the lives of dozens of Jews, a dramatic chapter in Poland’s wartime drama that was virtually unknown until an American author, Diane Ackerman, published a book about the Polish couple in 2007 called “The Zookeeper’s Wife.” The Zabinskis’ remarkable wartime actions – which included hiding Jews in indoor animal enclosures – seem certain to gain even more renown with the inauguration Saturday of a permanent exhibition in the villa, an attractive two-sto-

ry Bauhaus home from the 1930s still on the grounds of the Warsaw Zoo. The exhibition pays homage to the couple with photos of them, sometimes with their beloved zoo animals, in rooms recreated to Moshe Tirosh e v o k e t h e wartime period. There are sculptures of animals made by a Jewish artist, Magdalena Gross, who stayed there during the war. Visitors will also be able to see basement cham-

bers where the Jews took shelter, as well as a narrow tunnel they crawled through to reach animal enclosures. Among those who attended an opening celebration on Saturday evening was 78-year-old Moshe Tirosh, who was hidden there for three weeks in 1943, when he was just 6, as well as the Zabinskis’ son and daughter, Ryszard and Teresa. There is only one other known living Jewish survivor, Tirosh’s sister Stefania, who lives in Canada. Tirosh can still recall details, even though his time there amounted to just a short spell in a long and dra-

matic struggle for survival over years of Nazi occupation. He remembers being taken there by a horse-drawn carriage that carried him over the Vistula River to the green gardens of the zoo. He remembers squatting in the cellar with his sister while his parents hid in animal enclosures. He said he was always putting his hand over his sister’s mouth when she cried to stifle the sound, which could have given away the hiding place. He also remembers being well fed, compared to periods of near starvation during other periods of the war.

made some small adjustments throughout the game, but he was excellent. He really gave us a boost when our bats took a while to wake up.” Jacobs (14-3) did not have a baserunner until the fourth inning when Mike Addante was hit by a pitch. Although the Golden Eagles did not score in that inning, Murray thought getting a guy on base and making Batavia left-hander Ben Lynam throw from the stretch was key. “I think that got us going a little bit,” Murray said. “We got a couple guys on base, got

a hit after Addante’s hit by pitch, so I think that inning keyed what happened in the fifth.” In the fifth inning, Jacobs finally broke through. A lead off walk by Brandon Heiss and hits by Jeff Sidor and Daniel Tenayuca were crucial in Jacobs scoring all four of its runs in that fifth inning. George and closer Johnny Rohde shut the door from there, striking out five of the next nine batters to put away the Bulldogs (1-7). “I felt comfortable throwing any of my pitches today,”

George said. “When I have a defense behind me like I do every time I go out and pitch, it makes my job a lot easier.” Jacobs took care of DeKalb, Woodstock North, Barrington and Prairie Ridge before going five for five this week with the victory over Batavia. “That’s the thing about this team,” Murray said. “They continue to find ways to win in tough situations. We didn’t really swing the bats well at all today, but they didn’t put their heads down. They continued to battle and scratch this one out. I love this team.”

After Jacobs’ four-run fifth inning, Batavia got a lead off single. The next batter, Steven Busby, chopped a ball up the middle.

NFL DRAFT

TRADITION CONTINUES

Breaking down Bears’ draft chances By SUN-TIMES STAFF With less than three weeks before the NFL draft, the Bears are in the thick of prospect evaluations, looking at film by position. “It’s hard to be a good coach if you’re not a good evaluator,” firstyear Bears coach John Fox said. “How do you pick your own team? All right. So I enjoy it. That’s how I started in coaching. In college coaching, you’re the scout and the coach. And not only just your position. So you can say I grew up as a scout. I do enjoy the process.” So do others, who have linked the Bears to everything from quarterbacks to defensive tackles to wideouts to trades. Three weeks after the Sun-Times’ last mock draft and about three weeks before the real thing, here’s a look at who we think the Bears will choose with the seventh overall pick in the NFL draft:

ADAM L. JAHNS Projected Top Six: 1. Buccaneers – Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State; 2. Titans – Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon; 3. Jaguars – Dante Fowler Jr., OLB, Florida; 4. Raiders – Leonard Williams, DE, USC; 5. Redskins – Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama; 6. Jets – Shane Ray, OLB, Missouri.

And with the No. 7 pick, the Bears select ... a trade proposal.

Cary-Grove’s Michael Saxon clears the final hurdle in the 110-meter high hurdles semifinals Saturday in Cary. Saxon won the 110 high and 300 intermediate hurdles.

C-G wins 3rd straight Bohrer By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com CARY – Cary-Grove junior Robbie Gleeson said the Trojans did not need any reminder or extra motivation to win their own Al Bohrer Invitational Track and Field Meet. “[Coach Layne Holter] didn’t tell us that was it, we just kind of know by tradition,” Gleeson said. The Trojans delivered in a big way, again, winning their third consecutive Bohrer with 175 points at Al Bohrer Field on Saturday. A sign of their level of performance came when Holter gathered them on the infield and asked how many athletes had per-

sonal-best efforts. Fifteen Trojans stood up. “We had a great group of sophomores two years ago who are seniors now,” Holter said. “They’re working hard and we’ve filled in with some young talented guys.” Michael Saxon swept the hurdles and ran on C-G’s winning 4x100- and 4x400-meter relays. Ricky Hurley won the shot put and discus, Gleeson won the 200 and Alex Ratkovich won the 3,200. C-G also won the 4x400 relay and took second in the 4x200. “I’m really proud of the team,” Saxon said. “This is our first invitational and some of our younger guys got

some experience here.” Gleeson had one of the larger workloads with preliminary and finals races in the 100 and 200, then the 400 final as well. He was second in the 100 and 400 to go with his 200 victory. “I was a little disappointed in my 100 and 400 because I was close in those races,” Gleeson said. “But overall I’m pretty happy with how I did. We’re doing well. Indoor was our best year since I’ve been in high school and today we did well.” Johnsburg took two firsts with Sam Blankenship in the 400 and the 4x200 relay.

q THE NUMBER

The NFL’s predraft buildup is full of smokescreens and outright lies. But right now I’m taking Bears general manager Ryan Pace and Fox at their word. And what the Bears’ new decision-makers have said about this year’s wide receiver class makes me believe they’d be willing to pass on one at this point – even West Virginia’s Kevin White – especially if the right trade offer comes their way. Adding a draft pick or two could hasten Pace’s rebuilding process. “If that’s an area we decide to address in the draft, it’s deep,” he said last month. “There are a lot of good receivers in this year’s draft.” “Receiver is strong,” Fox added.

THE MASTERS

Spieth sets another Masters record By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press

Jordan Spieth tees off on the 12th hole Saturday during the third round of the Masters in Augusta, Ga. Spieth holds a 4-stroke lead going into the final day.

AUGUSTA, Ga. – Jordan Spieth walked off the 18th green Saturday with another Masters record, a four-shot lead and a solemn look that suggested he knew he was still a long way off from being measured for a green jacket. Spieth had a seven-shot lead with two holes to play and was on the same score – 18-under-par – that only Tiger Woods had ever reached at Augusta National. Out of nowhere, he made a careless double bogey on the 17th hole. Ahead of him on the 18th, former U.S. Open champion Justin Rose poured in a birdie putt.

Just like that, the lead was nearly cut in half. His gutsy short game saved him in the end. Spieth hit a flop shot from a tight lie to 10 feet and made the par putt for a 2-under 70. That steadied the 21-year-old Texan going into a final round that no longer looks like a runaway. Spieth was at 16-under 200, breaking by one shot the 54-hole record at the Masters held by Woods in 1997 and Raymond Floyd in 1976. On a day of charges and endless cheers, Spieth now gets to return and do this all over again. “We’ve got a long way to go,” Spieth said.

I’m just

So much has changed for the Bears this offseason. But, to this point, the team’s quarterback Jay Cutler remains the same. Sports editor Jon Styf and assistant sports editor Tom Clegg discuss:

Styf: Jay Cutler is what he is. He’ll never be fixed, he’ll never be broken, he’ll just be Jay Cutler. He’s funny with his dry humor, he’s a guy teammates kind of like, he’s a guy who can throw some unbelievable passes, but he’s also a guy who forever will try to do too much and hurt his team in doing so. They changed everything else to change the culture of the team here. How in the world is Jay Cutler still the quarterback? Clegg: I think it says more about the state of available quarterbacks around the NFL than anything else. Who did you have in mind for the Bears to go after (keeping in mind they didn’t have a willing trading partner and are saddled with a huge salary cap hit even if they released him). Jay Cutler Styf: You’re not wrong, but Mike Vick, Christian Ponder, Matt Moore, Josh McCown, Tim Tebow ... Wait, I didn’t go there, did I? You remember when John Fox coached a Tebow-quarterbacked team to the playoffs, right? Anybody can be a placeholder along with Jimmy Clausen while they find someone they actually trust to lead the team. It’s more about Cutler not being the answer than having another definitive one. Go get someone in the draft, whether it’s Marcus Mariota or Garrett Grayson or Brett Hundley. The Bears aren’t winning anything this year anyway, why let this continue? I get that the offseason isn’t over yet and I still think there’s a decent chance something will be done to make a move that involves either a draft pick for a QB or someone else’s backup. Clegg: I think you answered your own original question there. Look what Fox was able to do with Tim Tebow. If he can win a playoff game with Tebow, he certainly can do it with Cutler. Is Cutler the long-term solution? Absolutely not. I’m convinced of that after being a big supporter of Cutler his first couple of seasons with the Bears. But until they find the right guy (probably in the draft), you could do a lot worse than him. He has all the physical tools; maybe Fox and offensive coordinator Adam Gase can figure out a way to make him stop throwing interceptions. We can dream, can’t we? Styf: Six years later, you’re still talking about his “physical tools,” that’s the problem. There is no helping Jay Cutler figure it out. You see what you get. The difference between Tebow and Cutler is that Tebow had his head in the game and was willing to be coached. Cutler has been the opposite, killing plenty of coaches’ and offensive coordinators’ careers. He broke Marc Trestman, who used to be considered a smart offensive mind who was great at working with QBs. Cutler remains more of the problem than the solution. The whole addition by subtraction concept. You’re familiar with that, right Tom? Clegg: You mean like getting rid of your guy Brandon Marshall? Look, I’d love for the Bears to be able to start from scratch with a competent QB, but unless they find a team willing to take on Cutler’s contract, it’s going to be tough for them to put a “franchise” player on the bench. I’ll be the first to applaud the Bears if they’re able to deal Cutler, but as long as he’s here, he’s probably going to be their best option. When does his contract run out again?

While the rest of us were busy getting our brackets busted over the past month, Cary-Grove graduate Ian May lived the madness of March as a student manager for the Michigan State men’s basketball team. His responsibilities ramped up during the postseason, but it paid off when he got to travel with the seventh-seeded Spartans to the Sweet 16 in Syracuse, New York, and the Final Four in Indianapolis.

You always want to say you expect to win a championship. I think we almost expected to win more games than people picked us to win. But I don’t think we ever expected to go as far as we did.

In terms of workload, it does pick up a lot from a non-player standpoint. We’re usually in the office 50 to 60 hours a week. It will bump up to 70 or 80 hours a week. Every week, we’d win a regional and go onto the next site, we’d have three new teams to do and then teams in the future. It was a lot more work, but everybody was always in high spirits.

For each team we might play, we needed to prepare games for all of them. The managers, what we’d do first is log games, which is recording shots and defenses and ball screens. That takes probably about an hour to do one game and you do 10 games for each team. From there, it goes into even further dissecting.

The moment that definitely stood out was in the Elite 8. There was a moment in overtime (against Louisville) when we knew we were going to win. We got a big enough lead that we knew we couldn’t blow it. I remember being with the rest of the managers and everyone just losing our minds thinking about how hard we worked and how close we came the year before. That’s a moment I’m never going to forget. I was jumping up and down and hugging people. That was pretty special. We traveled to Indy for the Final Four. We got to see the town and do all this cool team stuff. There was a game room they provided for the team and all the managers. There were XBoxes and pool tables and all kinds of food. They even had a barber in the corner to cut players’ hair before the game.

Growing up watching March Madness, this was something I wanted to get involved with. It wasn’t something I never though I’d be able to get involved in, but then now that I am, I’m just so grateful to be a part of it. A lot of guys get involved because they want to pursue careers in sports, which I’m not really ruling out. But my major is mechanical engineering. I kind of just got involved to be a part of it. Now that I’m in so deep, it might be something I turn to in the future.

March is just a full month of people in the office all day long, on computers, breaking stuff down. It’s pretty hectic. I just tell people, I don’t get much sleep. I don’t think anyone in the office has gotten more than eight hours of sleep in the last month. And I don’t think anyone has turned on the TV except for SportsCenter. It’s tough but it’s part of the job. Now we’re into April, we don’t know what to do with all this free time. • Northwest Herald sports reporter Mike DeFabo can be reached at mdefabo@shawmedia. com or on Twitter @ MikeDeFabo.

Providence beats Boston University for hockey title BOSTON – Boston University goalie Matt O’Connor gave up a tying own goal in the third period, then Brandon Tanev scored with 6:17 left and Providence

beat the Terriers 4-3 on Saturday night for its first NCAA hockey title. It was the third straight year that the NCAA has crowned a first-time champion in hockey. BU was seeking its sixth championship in a virtual home game when O’Connor easily gloved a puck that was lofted in by Tom Parisi from the red line. But he then lost track of the puck, dropping it and allowing it to fall underneath him. He slid backward to protect the net and wound up knocking it in with 8:36 to play. Tanev scored off a faceoff to give the Friars the lead, and Jon Gillies helped protect it with a diving save against Nick Roberto in the final minutes. Gillies, selected the Most Out-

entered the undisclosed clinic, which specializes in drug and alcohol rehabilitation, on Jan. 28 for treatment of an unspecified problem. Manziel is expected to participate in Cleveland’s offseason workouts beginning April 20, the person said, speaking on condition of the anonymity because of privacy issues.

jwilkinson@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Despite his team winning its first five games, Huntley coach Kris Grabner saw cracks in the unbeaten facade. All of those little issues came to a head Saturday night as the Red Raiders lost, 1-0, to Maine South in the opening round of the PepsiCo Showdown tournament at Olympic Park. It was also the first time this season the Red Raiders (5-1-0) had been shut out. “We’ve played two other games like that, we just happened to be good enough to win the games. ...

Emily Olson’s corner found Olivia Sellergren unmarked inside the six-yard box. Sellergren made no mistake with the chance, heading into the top corner.

I think we just weren’t patient,” senior forward Deanna Hecht said. Grabner begrudgingly said the loss could be a learning moment for his team. “I hate to lose, but yes. You don’t have to go undefeated, you have to be playing good soccer at the right time,” Grabner said. “While I’m incredibly frustrated right now with the way we played, I know that we probably need-

In the morning, Crystal Lake South (5-2-1) fell, 3-1, to Libertyville. Three first half goals doomed the Gators before Alyssa Gaede got one back on a scramble infront of goal in the second half.

GIRLS TRACK AND FIELD: JENNIFER KEARNS INVITATIONAL

Tramblay leads Huntley to Kearns Invite victory STANDOUT STATS q THE GOOD FORM

Macy Tramblay Huntley, Senior

Tramblay won the triple jump, 100 high hurdles and ran on legs of the winning 4x100- and 4x400-meter relays as the Red Raiders won their own Jennifer Kearns Invitational Meet Saturday. Tramblay ran 15.3 in the 100 high hurdles and went 36-1½ in the triple jump for her winning efforts.

q THE NUMBER

Top-six finishes in the 100, 200 and 400 for Richmond-Burton junior Miranda Halverson, one of three girls in the meet to do that.

q TURNING POINT

Huntley got off to a great start on the track by winning the 4x800 relay in meet-record time (9:55.70) and the 4x100 relay.

Senior claims 4 first-place finishes By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Huntley senior Macy Tramblay trained harder this offseason than any before in her life, yet had modest goals heading into her first 100-meter high hurdles race in almost nine months. “I haven’t hurdled a full race since last July,” Tramblay said. “I didn’t expect much out of this race. I found a bad habit of swinging my trail leg that I need to fix.” Tramblay won in 15.3 seconds, one of her four firstplace finishes in the meet as

the Red Raiders took the team at their own Jennifer Kearns Invitational Track and Field Meet for the first time in three years. She also won the triple jump and competed on Huntley’s 4x100 and 4x400 relays. The meet is flighted, with each of the 12 schools getting an entry in the A, B and C Flights. The scores are then combined to determine the team champion. Huntley finished with 126 points, with Crystal Lake South (99), Harlem (71) and Hampshire (65) next in line. Some of Huntley’s freshmen – sprinter Cassidy Lackovic and distance runners Megan Hernandez and Chloe Smith – made key contributions to the victory. Lackovic ran on the winning 4x100, while Hernandez and Smith teamed with Jessica Chan and Kiera Daly to set

“I was very happy with our performances on all levels. Everything was clicking and we were all working together. To get the [team] championship with this senior group is very rewarding.” Shawn Nordeen Huntley girls track and field coach the meet record (9:55.70) in the 4x800. “I was very happy with our performances on all levels,” Raiders coach Shawn Nordeen said. “Everything was clicking and we were all working together. To get the [team] championship with this senior group is very rewarding.” Tramblay, Delaney Lyman and Tess Miller are the core of that senior group. Lyman won the pole vault and took second in long jump. “I’m excited about where

TRACK AND FIELD ROUNDUP

I’m at, it’s a good place,” said Lyman, who equaled her career-best vault at 11-0. “I’m consistently making 11-0, where I finished at last year. It was definitely a learning day with all the waiting, about how to stay warmed up.” Tramblay had a rough start with two scratches in the triple jump, before a 35foot jump and then her best effort at 36-1½. Crystal Lake South’s Kianna Clark did not realize how good her second-place shot

put throw was after she released it. She ended up with a 38-7, her personal-best by a foot and a school record by three inches. “I was joking with the coaches that if I didn’t get that record, I couldn’t graduate,” said Clark, laughing. “It felt relaxed and comfortable. I thought it was a decent throw, around 35. When I heard what it was I almost cried. It feels really good to get that far and get the record.” South’s old school record was set by Kamile Udrenaite in 2011 at 38-4. Marengo’s Kitty Allen swept the 3,200 and 1,600. Hampshire’s Elizabeth Evans won the 800. The meet was named in honor of former Huntley track athlete Jennifer Kearns, who graduated in 2010 and died in a car accident in 2012.

NORTHERN ILLINOIS FOOTBALL: TEAM BLACK 21, TEAM CARDINAL 0

Defense dominates in Team Black’s Huskie Bowl win But he knew he wouldn’t hear the end of it. “You’re always excited to see your teammate make a play – especially a defensive guy – but since he’s on the other team today, he’s going to let me hear about it for the rest of the summer,” Logan laughed. Sophomore safety Mycial Allen also came up with a fumble recovery for Team Black. Linebacker Sean Folliard (Team Cardinal) and defensive end David O’Gorman (Team Black) each collected sacks. Both defenses were strong all afternoon in the intrasquad game that had each team starting nine possessions from the 25-yard-line. Team Cardinal, which had Kenny Golladay finish with four catches for 36 yards, got across the 50-yard-line only once all afternoon – turning the ball over on downs on the Team Black 38. “When they tried to do the game plan and it didn’t work, we knew the game was over,” Team Black senior defensive end Perez Ford said with a smile. The two offensive touchdowns for Team Black came on a touchdown run by Draco Smith inside the red zone in their second possession and a 15-yard touchdown pass from Anthony Maddie to Christian Blake on the final play of the game. Those were the only two drives that Team Black crossed midfield. “We had a good scrimmage

By JESSE SEVERSON jseverson@shawmedia.com DeKALB – For lovers of defensive football, the Huskie Bowl on Saturday was a thing of beauty. The defense for Team Black came up with a touchdown on the third play of the day and they shutout Team Cardinal, 21-0, on a sunny afternoon at Huskie Stadium. “Anytime you split up a team like this, the defense has an edge,” said Northern Illinois coach Rod Carey, who was a neutral party on the day. “The offensive units in the lineup don’t really work together a whole lot – but there were some good plays and guys competing.” On a third-and-5 during the first drive of the game, Team Cardinal freshman quarterback Ryan Graham overthrew his receiver – right into the arms of Team Black sophomore cornerback Shawun Lurry, who returned it down the left sideline for a touchdown. “When I caught it, I didn’t see anybody in front of me, so I knew I was going to score,” Lurry said. “The receiver ran a 5-yard curl and the quarterback overthrew him and I caught it and thought, ‘Let’s go.’ ” It was a bittersweet moment for Team Cardinal senior cornerback Paris Logan. Lurry’s touchdown was a strong defensive play by a young cornerback who could play a key role for the Huskies’ secondary in the 2015 season.

[on the defensive side] a few weeks ago so we wanted to build on that and just be consistent,” Logan said. “That was the goal, no matter what team you were on. I think the defense did well – both red and black.” The drive that ended with Smith’s touchdown start-

“You’re always excited to see your teammate make a play – especially a defensive guy – but since he’s on the other team today, he’s going to let me hear about it for the rest of the summer.”

For the Sun-Times

BULLS 114, 76ERS 107

Pau Gasol, Derrick Rose help By HERB GOULD For the Sun-Times Here they come, healthy or not. With everyone, notably Derrick Rose, dressed in short pants and going up and down the floor – a rarity in this injury-riddled season – the Bulls seemed poised to cruise. After all, they had won 12 of their last 15 at home. The 76ers – who dressed only nine players, including no point guards – had lost seven games wherever they played. This was supposed to be an opportunity for the Bulls to improve their cohesiveness and try to advance their playoff seed. Things haven’t gone the way you’d expect for major portions of this season, though. And this game was no departure. It wasn’t dazzling, but the Bulls pounded out a 114-107 victory over surprisingly determined Philadelphia at the United Center on Saturday night. The Bulls had their projected starting five available for only the 21st game this season. They are 16-5 in those games. In his third game back from knee surgery, Rose had 22 points on 8 for 19 shooting, including three of his trademark physical drives to the hoop for fourth-quarter baskets. He also had eight assists. Rose played 28 minutes. It was an excellent step forward. Most encouraging, Rose played aggressively late in the game – another stride in his return. Pau Gasol (24 points, 13 rebounds) led the Bulls (48-32). Robert Covington had 22 for Philadelphia (18-62), which played like the nation’s best 60-loss team. After building a modest 2518 lead late in the first quarter, the Bulls’ vaunted defense allowed a 21-5 run that left

them down 39-30 before they closed to a 53-52 halftime deficit. The Bulls remain tied with Toronto for the No. 3 seed in the Eastern Conference. Because the Raptors would prevail in the tie-breaker, the Bulls will need some help. Like the Bulls a couple of days ago, the Raptors flirted with disaster in Miami on Saturday before pulling a 107-104 victory out of the Heat. And because No. 5 Washington also would win a tie-breaker with the Bulls, there were plenty of playoff-position implications to this meeting with lowly Philadelphia. Down 61-54 early in the third quarter, the Bulls put together a 12-2 run for a 66-63 lead. A Rose 3-pointer capped that surge. The Bulls would not trail again. When Philly closed to 8584 early in the fourth quarter, Tony Snell drained three 3-pointers to help the Bulls open a 96-87 advantage. Nicola Mirotic added a couple of jumpers to make it a 103-95 Bulls lead with 5∏ minutes left.

NOTES • With a first-half block, Joakim Noah (774) tied Scottie Pippen (774) for second place on the Bulls’ all-time blocks lists. Michael Jordan (828) is No. 1. • Kirk Hinrich left the game with a hyperextended left knee and did not return. He played 5∏ early minutes. • The 76ers were down to nine players, none of whom answered to the description of “point guard.’’ “When I hoped to be an NBA coach,’’ Sixers coach Brett Brown said, “it wasn’t my wish to go play the Chicago Bulls with no point guard. But that’s where we’re at. We’re left with nine players. Other than, we’re doing great.’’

You DO NOT Have to Suffer From Knee Pain Any Longer!

KNEE PAIN?

NEW FDA APPROVED TREATMENT PROVEN TO RELIEVE KNEE PAIN

Over 100 million Americans suffer from knee and joint pain? This pain accounts for 25 percent of all visits to primary care physicians and half of all anti-inﬂammatory drug prescriptions. Have you ever wondered how different your life would be if you could get rid of your knee pain? Where would you go, what would you do? What would you give for a day, a week or a lifetime of pain-free mobility? We are pleased to announce that knee pain sufferers don’t have to wait any longer to get the most advanced, non-surgical, FDA approved treatment. If you suffer from any degree of knee pain, we invite you to regain control of your life by visiting Superior Health & Wellness, a state-of-the-art medical facility.

WHAT IS OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA)? Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common type of arthritis. In osteoarthritis, the surface layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows the bones under the cartilage to rub together, resulting in pain, swelling and loss of motion of the joint. Although in some people it progresses quickly, in most individuals joint damage develops gradually over years.

KNEE JOINT WITH ARTHIRITIS

WHAT IS INJECTED INTO THE KNEE?

After careful study and several trials, the FDA approved a new treatment aimed at helping those with knee pain. This new treatment is a high-tech answer for all those who think that surgery, dietary supplements and prescription medications are the only option to eliminate knee pain.

Hyaluronic acid is similar to substances that occur naturally in your joint. The outside of the joint (joint capsule) is comprimised of a sturdy, ﬁbrous tissue. The lining of the joint capsule contains synovial cells, which secrete a thick, viscous synovial ﬂuid. Hyaluronic acid contributes to the viscous nature of the joint fluid, nourishes the cartilage, helps eliminate waste products, lubricates the joint and acts as a shock absorber inside the joint. Hyaluronic acid is reduced or lost from those who suffer from osteoarthritis. It is similar to changing the oil in your car. If your car were to run low on oil, you would have some serious wear and tear on the moving parts.

HOW DOES THIS TREATMENT WORK?

HOW DO I KNOW THAT THIS IS RIGHT FOR ME?

We use diagnostic ultrasound, allowing the doctor to pinpoint problem areas with extreme accuracy. A viscosupplement is then injected, and the healing process begins. Viscosupplementation bonds with naturally occurring joint fluid to create a lubricating and cushioning layer. It reduces pain, inflammation and swelling of the joint. Patients compare the treatment to getting a shot at the doctor’s office, and report little pain or discomfort.

In most cases, if you have knee pain, this is a great solution. Our doctors will give you an honest and fair evaluation of your particular knee pain. Space is limited to the first 30 Callers!

looking forward to having everyone healthy for the playoffs. That’s especially true in the case of Rose. The Bulls not only want him to find his own game, they’re looking for him to mesh with his teammates. “It’s important,” Noah said when asked about having Rose on the floor at the end of the game. “Derrick’s trying to get his rhythm back. He’s showed great strides. We just have to keep pushing as a team. Derrick’s our floor general, so it’s good to have him out there.” Noah’s production has been down lately, but he said he’s in the right condition for the start of the playoffs. “Overall, I feel pretty good physically,” Noah said. “I just have to keep grinding. These [last regular-season] games are going to be important. We’re excited for the playoffs.”

AVALANCHE 3, BLACKHAWKS 2

Hawks ready to face Predators

AndersonBmw.com 888-645-3466

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com DENVER – They’ve lost consecutive games. They’re 6-12-3 since late February. They missed the playoffs the past two seasons and have never made it beyond the second round. And when the Blackhawks are in town, their arena is usually filled with more red than gold. The Nashville Predators don’t exactly seem like the scariest first-round opponent for the Hawks, who locked up third place thanks to Minnesota’s loss to St. Louis on Saturday afternoon. And considering the other possibilities as the season wound down – the talented and physical Blues, the red-hot Wild, or the Pacific-leading Anaheim Ducks – it’s not hard to see why so many Hawks fans were hoping the standings would shake out this way. But, as Brandon Saad always says this time of year, be careful what you wish for. Yes, it’s the most favorable first-round matchup for the Hawks. No, it won’t be easy. For one thing, it’s not as if the Hawks have been tearing it up lately themselves. They’ve lost four straight after falling 3-2 on a last-minute Jarome Iginla power-play goal in a meaningless season finale Saturday night at Colorado. The Hawks, who rested Jonathan Toews and Duncan Keith, are 5-7 in their last 12. For another, the Predators are no pushovers. There’s a reason they spent much of the season challenging for the Presidents’ Trophy before stumbling down the stretch. As always, Nashville is solid defensively, eighth in the league with a 2.44 goals-against average. First-year coach Peter Laviolette has loosened the reins offensively, but without compromising the Predators’ core identity. They still muddle up the neutral zone, making speedy breakouts and long

Blackhawks left wing Patrick Sharp celebrates his goal against the Colorado Avalanche with teammates Andrew Shaw and Bryan Bickell during the second period Saturday in Denver.

Hawks fall to Avs in finale DENVER – Jarome Iginla’s second power-play goal with 32.9 seconds left lifted the Colorado Avalanche to a 3-2 victory over the slumping Blackhawks on Saturday night. Semyon Varlamov had 28 saves and Cody McLeod also scored for Colorado, which won four of its last five despite being eliminated from the postseason a week ago. Brandon Saad and Patrick Sharp scored for the Blackhawks, and backup goalie Scott Darling stopped 21 shots.

– Wire report stretch passes difficult. They still make it challenging to get into the slot, something the Hawks haven’t been able to do against any team lately. And they still, of course, have Pekka Rinne in net. Rinne is 41-17-6 with a 2.18 GAA and .923 save percentage this season. “Defensively, they’re very sound,” Jonathan Toews said. “They have a great goaltender, they have a good power play and they really play well at home. Those won’t be easy games.” This year’s Predators have added a new dimension,

though. They actually try to score goals. The addition of Hawks-killer James Neal (five goals in four games against them this year, and 12 in 18 games in his career), the emergence of rookie Filip Forsberg (25 goals), the dynamic defensive pairing of Shea Weber and Roman Josi (15 goals each) and the more aggressive style of Laviolette have seen the Predators outscore even the Hawks this season. “They’re a pretty well-rounded team,” goalie Corey Crawford said. “They’ve added a lot more offense. Obviously, they’re great defensively. Their goalie is one of the best in the league.” The Hawks, who haven’t seen the Predators since Dec. 29, have won three of the four meetings this season, but one of those came in overtime and another in a shootout. Of course, they’ve seen plenty of each other over the past few seasons, including a memorable first-round series in 2010 that the Hawks won in six games. “It could be surprising in some ways, but at the end of the day we know what they do well and what they don’t.’’ Toews said. ‘‘We’ll try to capitalize on that.”

Williams, Guillen focus on successes By BRIAN SANDALOW bsandalow@suntimes.com Ken Williams and Ozzie Guillen had some good times. They also had some bad times. It’s the good times they’re choosing to focus on. One day after Guillen and Williams were spotted chatting at U.S. Cellular Field, Williams said he and the former White Sox manager were going to let the negative bygones be bygones, and remember everything they accomplished together. Williams, who was the general manager when the Sox won the 2005 World Series, said he and Guillen have had around a 30-year friendship with “a lot of laughs and a lot of good times.” “We suffered through some bad times together and still managed to have some laughs along the way,” Williams said. “We both got together and decided, listen, whatever transpired over the last couple of years really had less to do with he and I and more to do with some things on the peripheral that some were just, created I won’t say falsely, but certainly created with ill intentions. “We’ve chosen to focus on all the years we had a great positive relationship and accomplished something very special than some of the other things.” Guillen left the Sox near the end of the 2011 season under acrimonious circumstances. Williams said he and Guillen had been communicating and wanted to meet, but schedule conflicts didn’t allow a meetup to happen before Friday, a gathering Williams said was “great.” After leaving the Sox for the Miami Marlins, Guillen managed in 2012 before getting

“We’ve chosen to focus on all the years we had a great positive relationship and accomplished something very special than some of the other things.” Kenny Williams White Sox executive vice president fired at the end of a tumultuous season. Guillen hasn’t managed since, a fact that doesn’t surprise Williams despite his well-known baseball acumen. “One thing that he has, I think, grown to appreciate, and he’s said it directly multiple times is, he appreciates my honesty and continued honesty because he hadn’t always gotten that elsewhere,” Williams said. “That’s nice on my part to hear. And I’m not going to change, so I told him, I said ‘Listen, a lot of what you’re going through now was self-created. And in order to have that turned around, you’re going to have to show people that there is that more mature, 51-yearold man who’s ready to employ a different strategy.’ ” Guillen claimed to Williams that a more mature man exists. “As we talked about yesterday, he says, ‘Kenny, I was in my late 30s when all this started. I’m 51 years old now, and I have mellowed.’ I looked at him and said, ‘You’ve what?’ I’m not completely buying it but I know what you’re talking about,” Williams said. “And he has, so I hope he can get in position again to get another opportunity and there’s no doubt that if he does, he’ll be successful and a little more mellow.”

Sox rally past Twins for first win of season By BRIAN SANDALOW

bsandalow@suntimes.com CHICAGO – The White Sox came into Saturday’s game with the Minnesota Twins losers of all four games to start the season while doing nothing right. The offense had been stagnant, the defense and baserunning sloppy and the starting pitching disappointingly mediocre in front of a fan base growing fidgety and impatient. But that was the bad news. The good news? “The good news is, this is an awfully talented group and I’m very confident in the grind that’s about to take place over the next six months,” executive vice president Ken Williams said before the game. “And I think we’ll come out on top, but we’ve got to relax and enjoy being out on the field again so that some of that talent can come to the surface.” There were signs of that in the Sox’s 5-4 win over the Twins. Pinch-hitting for Geovany Soto, J.B. Shuck had a two-out eighth-inning single to drive in Alexei Ramirez and give the Sox a 5-4 lead. David Robertson then converted his first save chance

The White Sox finish up their three game series against the Twins at 1:10 p.m. today. for the Sox by striking out the side, giving them their first win and helping them avoid their first 0-5 start since 1974. Making his first home start with the Sox, Jeff Samardzija went seven innings and allowed four runs and eight hits while striking out six. He was helped by home runs by Adam LaRoche and Soto, turning around an early 4-0 deficit. Zach Duke pitched a scoreless eighth for the victory, helping the Sox become the last American League team to win. “Guys are frustrated, you want to get it started, you’re waiting to see it happen,” Robin Ventura said before the game. “I don’t know if ‘worry’ is the word. People like to use it. But you spend a lot of energy focusing on that and not really on the game that it doesn’t help you.” But all the bad thoughts began to creep in early for the announced crowd of 22,317. The Twins took the lead in the second, scoring four

times and getting five hits against Samardzija. Helped by a Soto throwing error, the Twins got an RBI triple from Chris Herrmann, run-scoring singles from Shane Robinson and Danny Santana, before Brian Dozier’s RBI double capped the second-inning scoring. Samardzija and the Sox heard boos during the second, and they continued even as Samardzija walked off the field after striking out Joe Mauer to end the inning. The bottom of the second led to some relief for the Sox. They scored twice on LaRoche’s homer and then a Conor Gillaspie RBI single, but left two runners on when Adam Eaton grounded to first to end the inning. The Sox had another chance against Mike Pelfrey in the third. They loaded the bases with no outs and cut the lead to 4-3 on Avisail Garcia’s infield single off Pelfrey. But Alexei Ramirez followed by grounding into a 5-2 double play that had Jose Abreu thrown out at home. Gillaspie grounded to third to end the inning. The fourth inning only saw one Sox hit but it was Soto’s first homer of the season, tying the game at 4-4.

DENVER – Chris Coghlan and Mike Olt hit consecutive solo homers in the third inning, Dexter Fowler had two triples and the Cubs ended the Colorado Rockies’ bid for their best start in team history with a 9-5 win Saturday night. The Rockies were attempting to improve to 5-0 for the first time. This is the fifth occasion they have won four of their first five. Starlin Castro also added a solo shot for the Cubs, who entered without a home run this season. The Cubs were limited to three runs through the opening three games, but finally erupted at hitter-friendly Coors Field. The Cubs had 12 hits Saturday, which was as many as they had coming in. Jason Hammel (1-0) allowed three runs and eight hits in six innings against his former team. He also had two singles. Kyle Kendrick (1-1) surrendered a career-high eight runs in five innings. That was quite a contrast from the opener, when he pitched seven shutout innings. Olt left in the ninth after being hit on the right wrist by reliever Adam Ottavino. Fowler had two triples in a game for the fourth time, the first since Aug. 29, 2010, at Coors Field, when he was

He also walked twice and drove in two runs. Hammel is accustomed to pitching in this environment, compiling a 4.95 ERA in 49 appearances at Coors Field with the Rockies from 2009-11. His only mistake was grooving a fastball in

the second inning to Nolan Arenado, who hit it into the left-field seats for a two-run homer. Corey Dickerson added a two-run single in the eighth to make it 9-5. Colorado had runners on first and second with two outs, but Pedro Strop struck out pinch-hitter

Wilin Rosario, who hit a goahead homer in the 10th last Wednesday in Milwaukee. For the fourth straight game, Cubs manager Joe Maddon batted his starting pitcher eighth. Before Maddon came along, the Cubs said they batted the pitcher outside of ninth in the order

once – on Sept. 8, 2012 – in 15,848 games from 1914 to last season.

Woods, McIlroy both 10 shots behind Spieth Key hole of the Masters

• MASTERS Continued from page C1

AP photo

Jordan Spieth reacts after a hitting a birdie from the bunker on the 16th hole Saturday during the third round of the Masters in Augusta, Ga.

Rose closed with five birdies on his last six holes for a 67, and that birdie on the 18th put him in the final group for the first time in a major. Phil Mickelson wore a pink shirt in honor of Arnold Palmer because he knew he needed a big charge, and the threetime Masters champion delivered a 67, despite two bogeys on the back nine. Mickelson was five shots behind. Woods and Rory McIlroy will play together in the final round of a major for the first time – but they are 10 shots behind. Spieth knew what he was facing even before he started. Woods, who for three rounds has made everyone forget about that guy who shot 82 in the Phoenix Open earlier this year, ran off three straight birdies early in the round, and he threw a victorious fist pump after a most improbable birdie

AUGUSTA, Ga. – The key hole Saturday in the third round of the Masters. Hole: No. 18 Yardage: 465 Par: 4 Scoring average: 4.31 Rank: 4th Key fact: Justin Rose rolled in a 20-foot birdie putt to earn a spot in the final pairing alongside leader Jordan Spieth. Spieth, who made a costly bogey on the previous hole, saved par with a 10-footer to take a four-shot lead into Sunday. on the 13th hole. McIlroy made eagle on his second hole, went out in 32 and inched closer to Spieth on the back nine. Both of them stalled. McIlroy made bogey on two of the last three holes for a 68. Woods made a bogey from the bunker on the 18th for a 68. For a short time late in the afternoon, Spieth made the

green jacket ceremony seem like a formality. Four shots ahead of Charley Hoffman, Spieth buried a 10foot putt on the 12th hole and another birdie from about the same distance at the 13th. He followed a three-putt bogey on the 14th hole by making two more birdies, and his lead was up to seven shots as the trees began casting long shadows. He looked in total control at what is the most peaceful time of the day at Augusta National. And then it was shattered. Spieth chipped weakly to the 17th green and three-putted for a double bogey. It was a reminder how quickly comfort can vanish. The story line should sound familiar – a 21-year-old with a four-shot lead going after his first major at Augusta National. Four years ago, that was McIlroy, who shot 80 in the final round. Now it’s Spieth’s turn, and he at least knows what to expect. A year ago, Spieth was

tied with Bubba Watson going into the last round and had a two-shot lead with 11 holes to play until Watson rallied to win. “I think the good thing for him is he’s already experienced it once,” McIlroy said. “He’s played in the final group at the Masters before. It didn’t quite happen for him last year, but I think he’ll have learned from that experience. I think all that put together, he’ll definitely handle it a lot better than I did.” McIlroy all but ruled out his chances of adding the Masters to his collection of majors. Only one player in major championship history has rallied from 10 shots behind on the final day. That was Paul Lawrie at Carnoustie in the 1999 British Open, and Jean Van de Velde is nowhere to be found. Woods wasn’t willing to concede. He mentioned Greg Norman’s collapse in 1996 after the second round, and McIlroy’s

collapse after he finished up his third round. “I’m going to have to put together a really special round of golf tomorrow,” Woods said. “And you just never know. You never know around this golf course.” Spieth was reminded on one hole – a double bogey at the 17th – how quickly it can change. He starts the last leg of this dominant week with Rose. Right ahead of them will be Mickelson, one of the most popular figures at Augusta, with Hoffman (71). Woods and McIlroy will be ahead of them. “There’s going to be roars,” Spieth said. “Phil is going to have a lot of roars in front. A few groups up I think is Tiger and Rory ... well, you’re going to hear something. It’s about just throwing those out of my mind, not worrying about it, not caring, setting a goal and being patient with the opportunities that are going to come my way.”

Bears could pick either White or Cooper with first-round pick PATRICK FINLEY Projected Top Six: 1. Buccaneers –

• BEARS Continued from page C1 If White is the highest-rated player on the Bears’ board at No. 7, it’s best to stick to it and select him. But if he’s not and other teams are looking to trade up in the first round, the Bears will have a huge bargaining chip. The same can be said about Oregon quarterback Mariota, Alabama receiver Cooper or even Iowa offensive lineman Brandon Scherff. Fox’s teams over the years have leaned toward defense in the first round, and he said this year is deep when it comes to front-seven defenders. My first mock draft had the Bears selecting Washington defensive tackle Danny Shelton at No. 7. But the Bears might be able to grab him later in the first round.

Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State; 2. Titans – Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon; 3. Jaguars – Leonard Williams, DE, USC; 4. Raiders – Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama. 5. Redskins – Randy Gregory, OLB, Nebraska; 6. Jets – Dante Fowler Jr., OLB, Florida.

And with the No. 7 pick, the Bears select ... Kevin White, WR, West Virginia. The Bears have signed eight players to one-year contacts. Six of them play defense. Does that sound like a team hell-bent on taking a defensive player in the first round? Pace’s stated goal during free agency was to get the roster to where the Bears could draft the best available player. In this scenario, White is just that. Signs of mutual interest are abound. Bears receivers coach Mike Groh worked out White at his pro day

last month. White has scheduled a predraft meeting with the Bears. The Bears might prefer the Raiders draft White’s upside and leave them the more reliable Cooper – a move that would reinforce decades of Raiders draft decisions – and might even consider trading down to gather more assets. Some fear White is a one-year wonder after he totaled 1,447 yards on 109 catches in his senior season. The year before, his first in FCS after a junior college stint, he had almost one-third the production, catching 35 passes for 507 yards. Still, White is electric – he ran a 4.35-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine – and could slide seamlessly into the hole left by Brandon Marshall.

MARK POTASH Projected Top Six: 1. Buccaneers –

Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State; 2. Titans – Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon; 3. Jaguars – Leonard Williams, DE, USC; 4. Raiders – Kevin White , WR, West Virginia; 5. Redskins – Dante Fowler, DE, Florida; 6. Jets – Brandon Scherff, OT, Iowa.

And with the No. 7 pick, the Bears select . . . Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama. Three weeks without any actual football being played hasn’t changed the draft scenario much for the Bears – as it shouldn’t. They still need a wide receiver to complement Alshon Jeffery after trading Brandon Marshall. They still can’t get Dante Fowler. They still won’t take Washington DT Danny Shelton when he’s not the best player available at No. 7. The analysis of Cooper to the Bears remains the same as well: Besides athleticism and speed and good-enough size at 6-foot-1, 211

pounds, he’s an expert route-runner – an NFL-ready quality particularly important with a finicky quarterback like Jay Cutler, who sometimes seems to tune out guys who don’t know their job. The only question is whether the Raiders take Cooper at No. 4. That would leave the Bears with White, which might be a tougher decision for them, or not. Sources indicate the Bears are keeping all of their options open at this point. Trading the No. 7 pick still is on the table – especially if Mariota is still on the board. That would give the Bears an excellent opportunity to trade down, perhaps get Shelton or perhaps Florida State’s Eddie Goldman at a more draft-efficient spot in the first round and still acquire a quality player to fill needs at wide receiver, edge rusher or safety.

SUCCESS Kathleen Caldwell

An easy way to lower your taxable income With April 15 quickly approaching, it seems like taxes are on everyone’s mind right now. It’s also at this time of year when people get really motivated to reduce their taxes. Do you need some motivation? Look at line 61 on your 1040 form to see how much federal income tax you paid last year. Gulp! That’s not even counting state income tax, property tax, sales tax and, sometimes, gift and estate tax. Who says you’re not patriotic? Now that I have your attention and you’re good and motivated, we’re going to walk through a simple but effective way to help lower your taxable income. No, we’re not going to double-check deductions, exemptions or credits. And it’s not tax-free bonds (although that’s a good guess; munis are great for tax-free income). It’s certainly not buying that index annuity your insurance agent recommends. What is it? An easy to implement and less pressure-filled way to lower your taxable income: Increase contributions to your employer-sponsored retirement plan. It’s easy to do, it lowers your taxable income and you’re further securing your own retirement. Isn’t it funny how sometimes we don’t see the obvious? When people come into our office, we examine their tax returns, looking carefully for ways to reduce their taxes. We don’t look at your tax return only once, but every year. 401(k) participation is an example of things we look for. It’s funny. Someone will come in upset – and rightfully so – about how much they pay in taxes, yet they’re not maxing out contributions to a 401(k) plan. Then we see they have large balances in their checking and savings accounts crawling along at a quarter percent interest. And they’re paying tax on that little tiny dab of interest at their highest tax bracket. So what they are doing is they’re putting too much into a taxable savings account and not enough into a tax-deferred 401(k) plan. Wouldn’t it be better to let that money grow with no tax in your 401(k) plan rather than pay high taxes in a savings account? The amount you can add to a 401(k) plan for 2015 is the lesser of $18,000 or 100 percent of the employee’s compensation. Also, if you’re age 50 or older, you can make an additional catch-up contribution of $6,000. So you potentially could defer salary up to $24,000 into a 401(k) plan. This directly lowers your taxable income. For example, if you are in the 28 percent tax bracket and you increased your 401(k) contribution by $10,000 you would save $2,800 in taxes for the year. What could you do with $2,800? You could very well move yourself into a lower bracket by increasing contributions. Now we’re talking. Again, it is very simple to do. You’re lowering your taxes and helping yourself better prepare for retirement.

Jeri Vargas takes a phone call April 3 at her mother’s home in the Sherman Oaks area of Los Angeles. Vargas put her elderly mother on the “Do Not Call” list years ago. So why is the 88-year-old woman with Alzheimer’s disease still getting several recorded phone calls a day pitching everything from vacation cruises to medical alert devices and fire extinguishers?

ENDING ROBOCALLS Can phone companies do more to block them? By ANNE FLAHERTY The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Tired of those annoying, sometimes costly, robocalls favored by scammers? The Federal Communications Commission is being asked to consider whether more can be done to block the automated phone calls, but the options appear to be limited. The convergence of Internet and phone lines has made it easier to blast out hundreds of thousands of calls in a matter of minutes to see who takes the bait. The question of whether these calls can be blocked never has been more pressing than around tax season, when many pretend to come from the IRS. The phone companies say they worry automatic call-blocking might run afoul of laws requiring them to connect phone calls and have asked the FCC to clarify that it doesn’t. Many carriers offer call-blocking services to consumers, sometimes for a fee. But they also don’t want regulators to create any hard-andfast rules, which they said could be difficult to implement. Consumer groups counter the phone companies are dragging their feet for no good reason and that, once given the green light from the FCC, could block most robocalls if they wanted. “It is time for AT&T to provide free, effective solutions to this problem immediately, so that unwanted robocalls are stopped before they reach us,” wrote Tim Marvin, with Consumers Union, in a recent letter to AT&T. The group, which has organized an online petition at EndRobocalls. com, sent similar letters to Verizon and Century Link. AT&T said it’s not as easy as it sounds. Robocallers easily can “spoof” their identity and location by pretending to be from a legitimate source or by altering the caller ID. So blocking robocalls is “a bit like a game of Whac-A-Mole: just as numbers are identified for blocking, the robocaller spoofs another number,” the company said in an FCC filing. The U.S. passed the widely popu-

Vargas’ mother, Eleanor Blum, 88, solves crossword puzzles with her wireless phone next to her April 3 in the Sherman Oaks area of Los Angeles. Vargas says telemarketers have taken advantage of her mom, who has Alzheimer’s disease. “I don’t mind if someone calls me because I can say, ‘No thank you,’ ” Vargas said. “But it’s hard for someone like my mom.”

“For every company we can shut down, there are probably 10 to 100 companies that can pop up in its place.” Patty Hsue FTC staff attorney lar “Do Not Call” legislation in 2003. Commercial telemarketers are not allowed to call you if you’ve put your number in the registry unless they have “an established business relationship” with you. But unsolicited phone calls remain a top consumer complaint. The Federal Trade Commission, which goes after businesses for deceptive business practices, said it receives on average of 150,000 complaints a month on robocalls and has filed more than 100 lawsuits against violators of the Do Not Call rules. Still, regulators and phone com-

panies said they remain stumped on how to fix the problem for good. “For every company we can shut down, there are probably 10 to 100 companies that can pop up in its place,” said Patty Hsue, an FTC staff attorney who leads the agency’s technical initiatives against robocalls. A common example is “Rachel from Cardholder Services.” The automated voice recording encourages listeners to press a number, which connects them with someone who promised to lower their interest rates in exchange for an upfront fee. The FTC was able to trace the calls back to multiple people inside the U.S. and demand refund checks, but copycat scams continue. Jeri Vargas said she put her mother on the “Do Not Call” list several years ago, but the 88-year-old woman diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease still gets several recorded phone calls a day pitching her on everything from vacation cruises to medical alert devices and fire extinguishers. Aggressive telemarketing calls tipped Vargas off to her mother’s failing health, she said.

Now more than ever, business leaders are under constant pressure to produce consistent results, as well as navigate uncertain waters and explore new territories. It is because of these pressures more and more executives decide to go it alone, shoulder the full load, take all the credit and try to dodge all the blame. Working on your own is difficult, and your effectiveness is usually limited. While working alone, you can control all of the aspects of each task or work on what you want to complete, but you never can accomplish as much as you could by working with a team. Too much time is devoted to aspects of the job that could be more efficiently handled by others, dedicated to those tasks. That’s where teams become important. Working closely with other people is never easy. It is even more difficult to get people to work together to produce a common goal. However, with a wellformed team, you can overcome these tendencies and divide, conquer and maximize results. Use the following points to create an “Esprit de Corps,” where loyalty, enthusiasm and devotion to the team and the goal are the rule not the exception. Define the purpose of the team. It should be big and important. Teams should not be used for projects that are trivial or routine. Think about the Navy Seals. They are used for elite, special projects that require specialized skills and expertise. You wouldn’t use a Navy Seal to do projects that regular sailors can accomplish, either singly or in groups. In forming the team, use a strengths approach. Do an analysis of your team members’ individual and professional strengths. Get the right people working on the right projects, using their talents and skills appropriately. Assign roles and responsibilities for each person on the team that suit their strengths and behavioral styles. Create a shared vision of success. Make sure the team buys into your idea of success and how to get there. Discuss and then set the ground rules for accountability, expectations and reporting. When problems occur, and they will, criticize the performance, not the person. If you are a team member don’t take criticism personally. Just take the feedback and move forward. Healthy conflict is necessary and will keep the team energized and sharp. Measure the progress along the way. Take a plan-do-and-review approach to the project. In this way you can use the success of one project as a template for the next one. You can create a team that wins. Utilize these strategies and you can build an enduring and successful, team-based organization that creates a legacy of excellence.

Ask yourself: What’s the goal with child’s activities? Dear Dave, We have two girls in competitive gymnastics, and it’s costing $12,000 to $15,000 a year at a professional gym to do all this. My wife and I both work, and we make about $115,000 a year, but virtually all of her income goes toward paying the gymnastics bill. We’re also trying to get out of debt and get better control of our money at the same time. Should we focus more on our finances right now?

– Jim

Dear Jim, If I were in your shoes, I’d be asking myself why the kids are in gymnastics. Unless you guys are trying to send them to the Olympics – and they’re actually good enough to reach that level – teaching them

DAVE SAYS Dave Ramsey things such as discipline and to master their bodies through physical training can be done at a local amateur level. And at a much lower cost. My son played ice hockey in local leagues for years when he was growing up. We did it as a family thing, and he had lots of fun and we all made great new friends. He even played some in high school, too, but he wasn’t NHL material or anything like that. It didn’t change his life that he didn’t play on a traveling team or with professional trainers, so we had to ask ourselves, “What

will it matter when he’s 30 years old?” You make good money, so that’s not really the big issue. If you guys made $50,000 or less, I’d be yelling at you. But with your income, the gymnastics thing probably isn’t going to slow you down too much when it comes to getting your financial house in order. In other words, it’s a parental thing. Ask yourself why you’re investing so heavily in this, and what the goal is when they’re adults. I think that will help you make the smart decision.

– Dave

Dear Dave, My husband and I have been living bicoastal since last October. He found a great job with great pay in Charlottesville, Virginia, after

graduation, and we both agreed he couldn’t pass it up. I’m still in Portland, Oregon, with a good marketing job making $50,000 a year. We’re trying to get out of debt. If I join him now, I won’t have a job and we won’t pay off our debt as quickly. But being apart is so difficult. Should I go ahead and make the move now?

– Danielle

Dear Danielle, If he’s making great money, and you guys can make it on one salary while you look for another job, then I’d say go for it. There are things in life that are more important than money, getting out of debt in a certain amount of time, or a particular job. Have you talked to your company

about the possibility of doing your job remotely? If that’s not possible, maybe you could do some consulting on a remote basis. Even if you weren’t a traditional employee, they might float some projects your way. Talk to them about these ideas, and start shopping for a position in Charlottesville. It’s a university community, if I remember correctly, so there are probably lots of opportunities in your field. Go be with your husband, Danielle. You guys have been apart way too long already.

Attorneys general ask FCC to clarify rules certain phone lines, namely Voice-over-Internet Protocol, or VoIP. Consumers groups said the emergence of Nomorobo and other anti-robocalling technologies suggest the phone companies have the technical ability to spot obviously fraudulent calls. Enter the National Association of Attorneys General. The group of state lawyers last fall, led by Missouri and Indiana, asked the FCC to clarify whether blocking robocalls might violate any telecommunications statutes. The major telecommunications carriers said they agree that some legal guidance would be useful, but they also say they don’t want to become beholden to any new regulation. USTelecom, an industry group, said in a statement that “complex technological and legal issues” remain. The FCC confirmed this month it is reviewing the NAAG petition, as it’s required to do with any petition, but declined to comment further. There’s no deadline for the agency to respond.

• ROBOCALLS Continued from page D1 Yachting equipment arrived at the house one day, followed by magazines, books and light bulbs her mom didn’t need. Vargas hid her mom’s credit cards, only to find out later that a man claiming to sell fire extinguishers had her mom search through old statements to provide him a credit card number. Vargas said she thinks robocalls were an easy way of identifying her mother as a vulnerable target. Now the phone rings all day long, but Vargas is reluctant to get rid of the line in case of an emergency. “I don’t mind if someone calls me because I can say, ‘No thank you,’ ” Vargas said. “But it’s hard for someone like my mom.” The problem has gotten so bad nationwide the FTC in 2012 began offering cash prizes for technical solutions. Among the winners is Nomorobo, which hangs up on robocallers for you. But it only was built to work on

BUSINESS 5

Computer users’ choice: Pay ransom or lose files By JOYCE M. ROSENBERG The Associated Press NEW YORK – It’s a chilling moment: A message appears on a computer screen, saying the files are encrypted and the only way to access them is by paying a ransom. It happened at Jeff Salter’s home health care business last December. The network of nearly 30 computers at Caring Senior Service was infected with ransomware, malicious software that hackers use to try to extort money from people and businesses by preventing them from opening or using documents, pictures, spreadsheets and other files. If computer users don’t pay, there’s no way to access their files. Ransomware is one of the fastest-growing forms of hacking, cybersecurity experts said. Anyone from a home computer user to a Fortune 500 company can be infected. It also can attack smartphones. The smaller the users, the more vulnerable they are to losing their files – unless they have a secure backup for their system or go through the complicated process of paying cybercriminals. Salter thought he was prepared for such an invasion. Most of his files were backed up in a place hackers couldn’t access, and he was able to restore his information. But one machine wasn’t; it contained marketing materials for his San Antonio-based franchise chain with 55 locations. Salter paid a $500 ransom. “It would have cost us $50,000 to try to spend the time to recreate the stuff,” Salter said. “It would have been pretty devastating if we’d lost all that.”

Everyone’s at risk Like many hackers’ tools, ransomware can arrive in emails with links or attachments that, when clicked on,

GM: 70% of switch recalls are fixed The ASSOCIATED PRESS DETROIT – Fourteen months after General Motors started recalling more than 2 million small cars with faulty ignition switches worldwide, the company said it has repaired about 70 percent of the vehicles that are still on the road. The figures, which the company said are current as of Thursday, show the switch replacements are now running at about the same pace as the average recall in the U.S. for a similar time frame. GM has fixed 1.6 million of the roughly 2.3 million recalled cars worldwide that are registered and still in use, spokesman Alan Adler said Friday. In the U.S., the completion rate is almost 71 percent. The average completion rate 1.5 years after a recall begins is 75 percent, according to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. GM started recalling the cars in February of last year, and acknowledged that it knew of the deadly problem for more than a decade, yet waited years to take recall action. The switches can slip out of the run position and cause the engines to stall, knocking out air bags and power steering and brakes. This has led to crashes that caused at least 80 deaths and nearly 150 injuries in the U.S. alone. GM was fined $35 million by the government for delays in reporting the problem as required by law. In the months after the recalls began, GM was criticized by customers and members of Congress for a low completion rate, which the company blamed on a lack of parts.

unleash software into files. Attacks also can occur when users visit websites; cybercriminals can attach computer code even to well-known sites operated by tech-savvy companies, said technology consultant Greg Miller of CMIT Solutions of Goshen, New York. Anyone can be hit: individuals, big and small companies, even government agencies. The Durham, New Hampshire, police department was attacked by ransomware in June when an employee clicked on a legitimate-looking email. The department’s 20 computers were cleared of the ransomware and files were restored from a backup system. The Swansea, Massachusetts, police department, meanwhile, had to pay a $750 ransom after it was attacked. “We certainly are seeing ransomware as a common threat out there,” said FBI Special Agent Thomas Grasso, who is part of the government’s efforts to fight malicious software, including ransomware. Attacks are generally random, but specific companies and people can be targeted. Many small businesses and individuals are at risk because they lack technology teams and sophisticated software to protect them from hackers, said Keith Jarvis, a vice president at Dell SecureWorks, a security arm of the computer maker. Many don’t have secure backup systems that will allow them to retrieve uninfected files. Hackers can invade computers at large companies, as seen in attacks at companies such as retailer Target Corp. that stole customer information. Big companies’ risks from ransomware are relatively low; they have backups and separate computers for departments like sales or accounting, Jarvis said. An email click in one department could infect one or more computers, but likely wouldn’t spread elsewhere.

Cyber criminals are starting to target small businesses more than in the past because they’re vulnerable, said Liam O’Murchu, a security executive at antivirus software maker Symantec Corp. Symantec and other companies involved in cybersecurity work with the government to try to identify hackers. One way hackers fool small businesses is by attaching realistic-looking invoices to emails, O’Murchu said. It’s not known who the hackers are, he said. A version of ransomware called Cryptolocker was shut down in 2014. None of the hackers or groups of hackers have been caught.

Attacked and no backup A computer user gets a message saying files have been encrypted and is given instructions to pay a ransom, often between $500 and $700. Ransoms must be paid in bitcoins, an online currency. If files are backed up securely, users can remove infected files and software from a computer and reset it to what’s called factory condition. Files from the backup sites are then restored to the computer. Freelance writer Sandra Gordon paid $637 when her computer was infected in January. Gordon, who faced losing files going back 16 years, decided to pay after technicians said there was nothing they could do. She didn’t have a secure backup. Typically, when the ransom’s paid, hackers email a computer code to the user so the files can be released. But Gordon, based in Weston, Connecticut, didn’t get her code for five days, and had to plead with the hackers via email to send it to her. “It was very lonely and scary and hard to imagine even going forward as a business,” she said.

HOROSCOPE

TODAY - Put your skills on the line. The more you take on this year, the better off you will be. Idle time will lead to doubts or indecision. Stay focused on your goals, and use any means necessary to improve your financial picture. Partnerships will lead to success. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Make sure you accurately communicate what you have to offer before you enter into a joint venture. Don’t assume the other party has your best interest at heart. Do some thorough research before taking the plunge. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Spend time with the young people in your life. You

can be a positive role model if you treat them with respect and listen to their ideas without being judgmental. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Reconsider your medical, financial or contractual options. Look over documents and make needed amendments. Romance is on the horizon. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You can’t ignore hurt feelings by overspending or overindulging. If you are uncertain about a situation, do a little soul-searching and consider your motives and choices. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Keep your thoughts and feelings hidden until you feel

comfortable enough to discuss them. You have plenty to gain via an ironclad plan and careful strategy. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Self-improvement projects take time and energy. Thinking that you could enhance your appearance via a product that promises the impossible is foolish. A proper diet and regular exercise are the best ways to success. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Face facts and do your best to cut ties with people who are constantly upsetting or depressing you. Surround yourself with positive, upbeat people who are on your wavelength.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- A joint venture will turn sour if you aren’t on the same page as your partner. Be clear about your expectations before a misunderstanding occurs. It’s better to be safe than sorry. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- You have the compassion necessary to help someone less fortunate. Align yourself with an agency or organization that will utilize your skills. Your service will make a difference. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Emotional outbursts will develop if you are pushy. Give others a chance to make decisions with-

out your interference. If you give someone leeway, you’ll get what you want in the end. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- If you want to discover the truth, go on a fact-finding mission. Don’t make a decision until you understand the ramifications. Not everyone will have your best interests at heart. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Fundraising events will bring you into contact with people who share your ideals and principles. Get in touch with your community representatives to determine how you can help.

Time to talk about the N-word I’ve never been a March Madness kind of guy. Oh, don’t get me wrong. I indulge in more than my share of lunacy – even in March – but it’s never directed at the antics of 7-foot-tall mutants slam-dunking a basketball during their free time between college classes. But we live in the age of spying drones, security cameras, social media and sensitive microphones that pick up any foible that might slip, so I guess it would be inevitable that one of those high-profile basketball stars might utter a gaffe so egregious it would come to the attention of even a March-mild guy like me. And that’s what happened when I picked up the morning paper and read an article about University of Kentucky guard Andrew Harrison, who, at a dark moment, let his guard down just enough to light up the world of sports journalism. His previously undefeated team had just lost to the University of Wisconsin in the NCAA semifinal, and as one of his teammates was being asked about their opponents’ Frank Kaminsky, Harrison covered his mouth and muttered, “(Expletive) that (expletive).” For obvious reasons, you’re only reading one word of three in that previous quotation, but I think you get the point. The first word refers to an act that should usually be performed only in private or on Cinemax. And the third word is a racial slur that should probably never be uttered at all. Harrison’s words were never meant to be heard, but as I said, we live in an age where all words and actions are on public display, much more than we’d like to think. But still, the very fact that he would utter them at all is proof that Harrison is a bigot with no respect for anyone whose skin is black, right? But – wait a minute – as I read deeper into the article, I discovered Harrison

is black himself. And as it turns out, Kaminsky is white. Holy cow! How could such a thing be happening? It didn’t take long for me to remember Kaminsky isn’t the first white guy who was called this slur by a black guy. It happened to me, too. Back in the ‘90s, I was a harmonica/ guitar player in a blues band gigging throughout the Chicago area. There were five of us, and all of us were white except our bass player Tony, who was black. Although most of us didn’t know each other when the band was first formed, having been drawn together by talent rather than personality, over the course of a few years and hundreds of gigs we all became close friends. But the issue of race was never discussed, except in rare moments when it was almost unavoidable – like the time we played in a lounge at a huge bowling alley that hosted a national competition of black bowlers. Tony joked about four white guys playing black music for an all-black audience, asking us how it felt to be a minority. When we took a break between sets and chatted with some of the audience, Tony made a big deal about having to serve as our interpreter when the slang or the idioms got a bit too slippery for us to grasp. And then, one night, it happened. We were packing up our gear at the end of a gig, when someone from the audience stepped forward to show us a photograph he had taken of us as we played. It would have been a good shot that showed all five of us in a row, but the lighting was poor, so all of our faces were red. All except Tony’s, which was nothing but a featureless black spot. “Oh, man,” Tony said, “we look like a book of matches with one match struck.” We all laughed and picked up on his joke, saying it must have been because he was the only one on fire that night

and other quips like that. And then it happened. Tony laughed and said, “Man, you (expletives) are crazy!” There was a kind of shocked hush when he said it. It was a word I never expected to hear from any of us, and least of all from him. But he explained: “See, that’s how you know we’re brothers after all. That’s the kind of stuff my friends and I say to each other all the time.” It was trash talk, where even the harshest of verbal hits can serve as a love tap. Because there are words … and then there are words. And sometimes it’s the same word. Because there is no word that is evil in and of itself. And the best way to know if the word is meant to clobber or to caress is to get to know the speaker and the situation personally, not just to eavesdrop with a drone, camera or microphone and then to send the clip out for the world to hear, stripped of context. According to the article about the racist slur that dominated the March Madness news that day, Harrison apologized for his post-game trash talk as soon as it went social-media viral. He even called Kaminsky to apologize and wish him luck in the championship game that Wisconsin had snatched from Harrison’s Kentucky team. Kaminsky accepted the apology without hesitation. “Nothing needs to be made of it,” he said when the press asked him about the slur. But I’m still waiting for an apology from my brother journalists for filling our world with spying drones, security cameras, social media and sensitive microphones in search of a headline.

the minds of men, and the world is now beginning to view him as a great historical character,” Herndon wrote. “Those who knew and walked with him are gradually passing away, and ere long the last man who ever heard his voice or grasped his hand will have gone from earth. With a view to throwing a light on some attributes of Lincoln’s character heretofore obscure, and thus contributing to the great fund of history which goes down to posterity, these volumes are given to the world.” Ron Halversen, a member of the Racine Theater Guild, said he was selected by the Kenosha Civil War Museum to discuss Lincoln from Herndon’s perspective. Through Herndon’s recollections, we get a sense of what Lincoln’s childhood was like, how his views were influenced by his experiences as a young man and how Lincoln interacted with his children as a father. “The talkback [with the audience] has taught me quite a bit,” said Halversen, who has portrayed Herndon the past six years. “I’m not a Lincoln scholar; I’m a paid actor. But there is a lot of meat in the skit.” Halversen, a part-time actor for 30 years, said he’s developed

NORTHWEST HERALD UNION – “The Man Who Knew Lincoln,” a program presented by the McHenry County Historical Society and McHenry County Civil War Roundtable at 7 p.m. April 14 at the Historical Society Museum, will mark the 150th anniversary of President Abraham Lincoln’s assassination in Ford Theatre – a mere five days after the end of the Civil War. William Henry Herndon was 70 when he partnered with freelance writer and lawyer Jesse Weik of Greencastle, Indiana, to publish the first and arguably best account of Lincoln’s life in 1888. Herndon, the third and last of Lincoln’s law partners, an early member of the new Republican Party and a mayor of Springfield, confessed in his preface to the two-volume “Abraham Lincoln – The True Story of a Great Life” that he was driven to paint an accurate picture of Lincoln’s successes and shortcomings. “A quarter of a century has well-nigh rolled by since the tragic death of Abraham Lincoln. The prejudice and bitterness with which he was assailed have disappeared from

an appreciation for Herndon’s dogged attention to detail and devotion to presenting a “true and fair biography” of our 16th president. “There was a lot of pure fiction being written, and that didn’t sit well with Herndon,” said Halversen, himself a retired lawyer. The nonprofit Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History in New York City describes Herndon as a “bundle of contradictions” – a Temperance advocate who drank to excess and who at times seemed ambivalent about his famous partner. But his admiration for and loyalty to Lincoln appears rock solid. In an 1874 letter to a man in Sangamon County, Herndon wrote: “I was with Mr. Lincoln for about 25 years and I can truthfully say – I never knew him to do a wrong thing – never knew him to do a mean thing – never knew him to do any little dirty trick. He was always noble. In his nature, he felt nobly and acted nobly. I never knew so true a man – so good a one – so just a one – so uncorrupted and so uncorruptable a one. He was a patriot and loved his country well and died for it.”

How does spring affect you? Now that spring has officially arrived, most of us are looking forward to warmer weather. Unfortunately, for many people, it is also the beginning of allergy and respiratory problems. We have no control of the outdoors but we can definitely control the indoors. With the proper equipment we can eliminate most indoor air irritants, mold and humidity problems. The following items are some of the most popular that will improve your indoor air quality: • Duct cleaning will remove years of debris from your system. We can also sanitize the ducts with a germicidal solution. If any ducts run through an unconditioned space like a crawl or attic, then you should consider Aeroseal to seal leakage. • Filtration - There are various levels of filters that will reduce airborne particulates. • UV - Ultraviolet will attack any potential mold formation in your cooling coil and some can even attack airborne germs within the home. • Dehumidifier - With a whole house dehumidifier you have complete control of summertime moisture problems. This will minimize AC usage and at the same time make your home more comfortable. With the implementation of any of these products, you will improve your indoor comfort by removing most of the airborne irritants. If you have any HVAC related questions, please contact me today!

Melissa Snoza (center) of Algonquin is seen with the rest of the members of Fifth House Ensemble, a group that plays professionally in the Chicago area as well as participates in Live Music Now!, an initiative through The International Music Foundation to bring live performances to children in Chicago Public Schools.

UNLOCKING A LOVE OF MUSIC Algonquin flutist Melissa Snoza plays in Chicago schools as member of Fifth House Ensemble “We wanted to show kids how music can tell a story, their story. I don’t think any of us fully understood the impact this would have on the confidence and positive self-expression of our students.” Melissa Snoza Flutist, executive director of Fifth House Ensemble

By OLIVIA MORRISSEY editorial@nwherald.com

A hush falls over the crowd of 400 grade schoolers. The focus turns to the almost regal musicians on stage, each with their instruments poised for the first notes. No words, only a look at one another, and each instrument comes alive. “If what students hear is truly excellent, you’ll see wide eyeballs and hear silence. If it’s not, you’ll see uncontrollable squirming,” said Melissa Snoza of Algonquin, executive director and flutist for Fifth House Ensemble.

The Chicago-based ensemble is a nonprofit organization that not only performs chamber music professionally, but also develops young audiences through curriculum-integrated interactive concerts for K-12 students. The ensemble works extensively with Chicago’s International Music Foundation to bring live musical performances and residencies to children and young adults in Chicago schools. It seems only fitting that Snoza, a lifelong learner of music and established entrepreneur, would return to the classroom to share her craft. As a student at Eastman School of Music in New York, she planned a high-powered professional music career and didn’t see an opportunity to use her musical talent to give back. That is, until she helped to create one in Fifth House Ensemble through live performance education programs. “If I look back on my career, I say, yes, I was preparing for this my whole life,” said Snoza, who also teaches at DePaul University. Through Live Music Now! and other music programs, Snoza has worked with students of all ages and backgrounds, some who have never experienced live music or classical performance. But all

music has a story to tell, and its narrative often brings out the stories buried inside her students. “We started Fifth House Ensemble and our live music programs to remind people why they love music. We wanted to show kids how music can tell a story, their story,” Snoza said. “I don’t think any of us fully understood the impact this would have on the confidence and positive self-expression of our students.” For 10 days over the past school year, elementary school students in Chicago public schools have gathered at Live Music Now! performances to learn through music. Students are encouraged to ask questions about the songs being played and to choose which notes come next. Even story characters are chosen with accompanying music. Then, the ensemble plays the piece, “reading” the story the students have created. No two shows are the same, and all are free of charge. Some might argue that live musical performance, especially of the classical genre, is a dying art form, Snoza said. But she disagrees, saying that it is a unique opportunity for magic in students’ lives. “Kids don’t have the same preconceptions about what music should sound

like as adults do. They’re open to the humanness of live performance,” she said, “There’s a fragility in live performance. Its uniqueness, spontaneity and flaws make it a beautiful, visceral experience. I think kids especially connect with and understand that experience.” Students of music span generations, and the music of Fifth House Ensemble is no different. Besides music education programs, the ensemble performs professionally in Chicago and often collaborates with other artists. The ensemble will join Baladino, a Mediterranean folk band, and award-winning composer Dan Visconti to present two performances of Nedudim at 7 p.m. April 17 at Instituto Cervantes, 31 W. Ohio St., Chicago, and 7 p.m. April 20 at Mayne Stage, 1328 W. Morse Ave., Chicago. Tickets are available on the Fifth House Ensemble website, http://fifth-house.com. As for the budding musicians of Live Music Now! and other programs, Snoza said live music will continue to help tell their unique stories. “Live music performance makes you imagine something, feel something. If we can unlock that in our students, we can make them understand that this art form is not dead, and that it is making a difference in people’s lives.”

Mom threatens to fight son’s silence with silence Dear Abby: My 34-year-old, single, independent son completely ignores me. He won’t answer texts, emails, postal mail or phone calls. Weeks and months go by with no meaningful conversation between us. I am sick of it and tired of being treated so disrespectfully. I thought I had raised my son to be more thoughtful of others, especially his mother. I’m ready to put an end to my misery by ignoring him back and “forgetting” holidays. That may not seem motherly, but I’m weary of trying to get him to be more responsive. Any suggestions? – Ignored Mom In Atlanta Dear Ignored Mom: I don’t know how often you have been calling, emailing, texting and writing to your son, but from what you have written, it might be a relief to both of you if

you stop – at least for a while. If he notices the silence and reaches out, you can discuss the reason for it then. However, if he doesn’t, you will have to accept that for whatever reason, this is the way he wants it. And if that’s the case, it is important you concentrate on your relationships with friends and other family members (if there are any) and activities that bring you happiness because, clearly, your relationship with your son does not. Dear Abby: My daughter just got engaged and is beginning to plan her wedding. Her fiancé has been married before, but she hasn’t. She wants a band at the reception, and he wants a D.J., which he had at his first wedding. My husband is paying for the entire affair, and he and I support our daughter in this.

I know this seems like a small thing, but her fiancé is really digging in his heels. Would it be wrong for her to pull the “this is my one and only wedding” card? This fight seems ridiculous to us. What do you think?

– Parents Of The Bride Dear Parents: I’m glad you asked. I think that if your daughter goes that route, it may not be her one and only wedding. And I urge you and your husband to stay out of it and let the two lovebirds resolve this for themselves. Dear Abby: My wife and I are retired, so we both contribute to household chores. There are no rules as to who does what, but somehow everything gets done. The disagreement we’re having relates to laundry. When I do it, the last steps are: Remove the clothes from the dryer, place them on top,

then sort, fold and put away. My wife claims taking the clothes out of the dryer and placing them on top creates wrinkles, and what I really need to do is take one item out of the dryer, fold it, and then repeat until the dryer is empty, sorting as I go. I maintain that this does not seem logical. There is no data to back her claim, and all it does is make extra work for me. I would appreciate your thoughts. – Fluff And Fold Dear F And F: When clothes are removed from the dryer and tossed in a pile, wrinkles can set in. However, if the garments are removed individually and then folded or hung up, they remain wrinkle-free.

You can’t get rid of guilt without changing your actions “Deeana” has been in and out of recovery for years. She took her first nose dive more than 20 years ago after a DUI cost her the truck-driving job she loved so much. She drove the truck more to escape than anything else because she already had an advanced degree in Physiology. She was in a relationship with a person she felt responsible for more than felt attracted to, but her guilt and their two kids made it almost impossible for her to end the relationship. She felt ambivalent about staying and, rather than confront the feelings and take honest action, she chose to drink, use drugs and have affairs. The more she did that, the more she felt guilty, and the more guilt, the less action she could take. She took odd jobs and

was accepted into medical school, where the drugs, the self-centeredness and the affairs continued. Despite beginning to use prescription drugs and later heroin, she managed to graduate with honors. She was reprimanded in her first residency for “boundary issues with patients” and released before completion. She was honest with her residency director about the alcoholism, if only to escape worse consequences, and was sent to a highend rehab center in Georgia. She completed most of the three-month program but was ejected in the 10th week when it was discovered she was having an affair with one of her co-inhabitants. She completed treatment in another facility and cleaned up her act for a while. She finished a residency

and got her medical license, even though she never stopped using drugs more than periodically. As soon as the pressure was off, she would start using again. She would comply with the minimum requirements to stay in practice and game the system to continue to use. Family life in shambles, multiple relationships in the hopper and drunk or high half of the time, she got caught once again, but this time with unauthorized prescription drugs. Like a cat with nine lives, she avoided prosecution and was offered rehabilitation and probation. Once again, she complied, completing the program. Although she moderated her drug use, she managed to get high between drug tests and drink before and occasionally even at work.

A co-worker smelled alcohol one day, but she managed to talk herself out of that problem and moved out of state to find a “better place for her kids.” Still on probation, she managed to find a therapist who believed her “over-estimate” of her time in sobriety so she could more quickly get an unencumbered license. She went regularly to an AA meeting to procure the necessary signatures. The last time we talked, she was convinced that if she could somehow talk to someone understanding about her guilt, if she could in some way expiate her guilty conscience, she would be able, this time, to stay sober. But as I was once told by a wiser man than I, you can’t get rid of guilt if you’re still doing things you feel guilty about. Guilt is self-

centeredness wrapped in a package of self-justification. The treatment plan for guilt is: 1. Get honest with yourself and others around you no matter how difficult, 2. Stop playing the victim and take responsibility for your actions, and 3. Help someone else. Deeana is living in a dishonest situation, doing unethical things around using people with little support and counting the days until she’s “free.” It doesn’t sound like a formula for success.

how to handle angry inmates in mental institutions and prisons. He said the cues of anger are important to read, that there is a build-up of tension accompanied by physical movement, facial expressions and other signs before the actual explosion occurs. If you can read the signs, you can head off an outburst. The signs of anger are the same in all mammals: cats, dogs, horses and human beings. We start to breath faster and more shallow. Our muscles tense as we prepare to run or fight. Our eyes open wider, and the whites show; our nostrils flare, we show our teeth or clinch our fists. Whether we are dealing with another’s anger or our own, we can recognize the signs of buildup. To diffuse the situation in ourselves, at the first sign, we can relax the tense muscles, take a deep breath, hold it to the count of four and release it slowly. If the anger is someone else’s, we can take a deep breath, slow our speech, lower the volume and do not make direct eye contact. We may ask, “Are you OK? You seem a little upset.” It has been many years since I drove with my middle finger up. With my inner adult in charge, I am not afraid of other drivers.

A/C CLEANING/CHECK-UP

Everybody gets angry, even the Dali Lama. The main difference between him and us is he doesn’t lose his temper. We would like to be serene and happy as much of the time as possible. The problem, though, is THEM. Mitch Messer, an anger specialist from Chicago, would disagree. He believes that the core of anger is low selfesteem. He says if we “peel the anger artichoke” we will always find low self-esteem in the exact middle of the mess. When I first heard this idea, I did not like it much. At the time, I was driving with my middle finger extended much of the time because other drivers were cutting me off, driving too close to my bumper or about to get in my lane. I told my therapist about my opinion, and he asked me, “Gale, how old do you feel when you drive the car?” “Eight,” I said, without thinking. “She’s too young to drive the car,” he said. “You need to put the 40-year-old in the driver’s seat.” The more I thought about it, the more I had to agree with Doctor Messer. An 8-year-old behind the wheel of the car does suffer from low self-esteem. She knows she doesn’t really know how to drive, so she is terrified of other drivers. As long as she’s the only one in the road, she feels in control, but the minute other drivers get involved, she is scared, and her middle finger just naturally shoots straight up in the air. So how do we address somebody else’s anger? I took a workshop with a specialist who taught staff

MINI-REVIEWS & LOCAL SHOWTIMES OF CURRENT MOVIES ON SCREEN NOW

“FURIOUS 7” STARRING: Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson

PLOT: Deckard Shaw seeks revenge against Dominic Toretto and his family for the death of his brother. RATED: PG-13 for prolonged frenetic sequences of violence, action and mayhem, suggestive content and brief strong language RUNNING TIME: 2 hours, 17 minutes VERDICT: Fast-moving fight scenes, outrageous auto antics and a sprinkling of ridiculous one-liners make “Furious 7” a campy, crowd-pleasing escape. Never mind that the film repeatedly presents the impossible – a muscle car attacks an airborne helicopter – fans of the franchise know to suspend disbelief at the door. With nonstop action from start to finish, it’s easy – if a bit exhausting – to go along for the high-speed ride. Reality intrudes at the end: The film is dedicated to Paul Walker, who died in a car crash in 2013, and concludes with a montage of images of the actor from his five previous “Fast and Furious” appearances. Walker’s brothers acted as stand-ins and special effects were used to maintain his presence throughout his final film, which was still in production when he died. Like its predecessors, the seventh installment of the hit franchise features a multicultural cast, international settings and a dazzling array of cars. The story is just a framework for car chases and fight scenes. Directed by James Wan (“Saw,” “Insidious”), “Furious 7” scores with unprecedented car stunts. When the characters aren’t in their cars, they’re fist-fighting, and Wan’s shooting style makes those scenes appear illuminated by strobe light. Even Letty (Michelle Rodriguez), the lone female driver on the crew, throws blows – in a gown and heels – battling an all-woman security team led by MMA fighter Ronda Rousey. Most of the funny comes from security agent Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson), with lines like, “Daddy’s got to go to work,” after which he busts his arm out of a plaster cast, Hulkstyle, just by flexing. It all adds up to an over-the-top escapist romp, which is exactly what “Fast & Furious” fans expect. – The Associated Press

“GET HARD” STARRING: Will Ferrell, Kevin Hart, Alison Brie

PLOT: When millionaire James King is nailed for fraud and bound for San

LOCAL SHOWTIMES Quentin, he turns to Darnell Lewis to prep him to go behind bars. RATED: R for pervasive crude and sexual content and language, some graphic nudity and drug material RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 40 minutes VERDICT: While the stereotypes in “Get Hard” may be gross exaggerations, its characters live in the real world: A place where the chasm between rich and poor is vast and growing; where black men are disproportionately jailed and white-collar criminals often evade punishment. “Get Hard” traffics in crude humor involving more than one look at Farrell’s naked tush and a tiring amount of puns on the film’s title. Stars and producers of “Get Hard” defended the film after its premiere at South by Southwest, where some viewers and critics called it racist and homophobic. So when does satire become an expression of the very sentiment it hopes to ridicule? It’s tricky territory to tread, and “Get Hard” doesn’t always get it right, but in a nation where racial and economic divides are growing, it deserves credit for trying. The film stays afloat on the goofy charm of its leads, a great soundtrack and an undercurrent of truth. –The

“IT FOLLOWS”

STARRING: Jim Parsons, Rihanna,

STARRING: Maika Monroe, Keir

Steve Martin PLOT: Oh, an alien on the run from his own people, lands on Earth and makes friends with the adventurous Tip, who is on a quest of her own. RATED: PG for mild action and some rude humor RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 34 minutes VERDICT: In “Home,” the latest adventure from DreamWorks Animation, the misfit alien protagonist is called Oh (“The Big Bang Theory’s” Jim Parsons) simply because that’s the resigned reaction everyone has when he’s around. “Oh,” his brethren say with deep indifference at his desperate, over-the-top attempts to fit in and make friends. It’s meant to turn into something positive by the end of the film. Unfortunately, “oh” is also the experience of watching “Home,” an earnest exercise that falls flat, despite the best of intentions. Director Tim Johnson (“Antz”) has compiled so many appealing elements that it’s hard to believe “Home” lands with such a thud. Visually, the world of “Home” is somewhat flat and synthetic, even in 3-D. “Home” has a good heart, and yet, much like Oh, its valiant efforts to be fun just fizzle.–

Gilchrist, Olivia Luccardi PLOT: After a young girl gets involved in a sexual confrontation, she is followed by an unknown force. RATED: R for disturbing violent and sexual content, including graphic nudity and language TIME: 1 hour, 40 minutes VERDICT: “It Follows” is a subversively unconventional horror film that is one of the more brilliant and stylish genre send-ups of recent years. Writer-director David Robert Mitchell, who gained some attention for his 2010 film “The Myth of the American Sleepover,” wastes no time setting the mood. The story is a wildly fun conceit, and with its steady long shots and lingering takes, Mitchell’s atmospheric rendering of “It Follows” gives the film a fanciful, otherworldly feel. And yet, just like the best horrors, it also might just make you obsessively check who’s behind you. – The As-

RATED: PG-13 for some sexuality, partial nudity and some war and sports action TIME: 2 hours, 19 minutes VERDICT: Nicholas Sparks’ latest novel adapted for the big screen, “The Longest Ride,” offers two love stories at once. But the most heartfelt affair here isn’t between its impossibly good-looking stars; it’s shared by a couple 70 years their senior through a story told in flashbacks. Eastwood is a fitting cowboy – handsome and sculpted, with a touch of his dad’s famous swagger. The cherubic, pillowlipped Robertson makes for a fine potential partner. Both actors are easy on the eyes, but lack the fireworks, and just plain fire, to be a truly convincing onscreen romance. Both couples are filmed lovingly by George Tillman, Jr. (“Soul Food”), who was inspired by his own 25year marriage to helm the story. He also brings a gritty realism to the bull-riding shots, using a rider’s-view camera to convey the power and intensity of the animal and sport. If only the same power and intensity existed in Sophia and

“WOMAN IN GOLD” STARRING: Helen Mirren, Ryan Reynolds, Daniel Bruhl

PLOT: Maria Altmann, an octogenarian Jewish refugee, takes on the Austrian government to recover artwork she believes rightfully belongs to her family. RATED: PG-13 for some thematic elements and brief strong language TIME: 1 hour, 49 minutes VERDICT: Simon Curtis’s rendering of the riveting true account of Maria Altmann’s fight to reclaim a famed Gustav Klimt painting of her aunt, “Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I,” first stolen by the Nazis and then appropriated by Austria after the war, is somehow lifeless. There is almost too much here for a single movie. With two actors as charming as Mirren and Reynolds anchoring the story, it’s a bit disarming that their charisma never really manages to energize the sluggish tale. “Woman in Gold” reaches for glossy, based-on-atrue-story cinematic heights with the depth of one of its made-fortelevision counterparts. – The
