STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS

Obama: Nation stronger

Algonquin will form ordinance

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – The Village Board on Tuesday directed staff to put together an ordinance that if passed would allow video gaming. It could take about a month to put together.

It’s a similar plan of action to August, when the Village Board wanted to wait six months to see how video gambling was handled in other municipalities.

Local businesses, such as some of the village’s taverns and restaurants, asked the village to allow video gaming for fear they would lose read customers to neighmore boring communities where it is allowed: New Fox Harvard, Marengo, Lake rules may McHenry, Lake in t h e H i l l s , W o o d - help village stock, Huntley, He- control video bron, Johnsburg, gambling.

Fox River Grove and PAGE B2 Richmond.

Crystal Lake, Cary, Island Lake and Lakewood rejected video gaming.

In neighboring communities, there are 199 establishments eligible for video gaming, but only 11 places actively use a video gaming license.

Nick Lennox, who works for video gaming terminal operator Accel Entertainment, said the there are so few licenses being used now because applications still are being processed by the Illinois Gaming Board.

“It’s certainly bound to go up substantially in the next few months,” he said.

According to village staff members, a survey of local police departments where video gaming is allowed has not led to an increase in calls for service.

“Please note that several jurisdictions have very few locations with video gaming terminals, most commonly one location, and the video gaming terminals have been active for only one or two months,” according to Mike Kumbera’s memo to Village Board members Village Board President John Schmitt said he would like to see

President Barack Obama gestures Tuesday as he gives his State of the Union address during a joint session of Congress on Capitol Hill in Washington.

President says GOP should back his plans

By JULIE PACE The Associated Press

U

ncompromising and politically emboldened, President Barack Obama urged a deeply divided Congress on Tuesday night to embrace his plans to use government money to create jobs and strengthen the nation’s

middle class. He declared Republican ideas for reducing the deficit “even worse” than the unpalatable deals Washington had to stomach during his first term.

In his first State of the Union address since winning re-election, Obama conceded economic revival is an “unfinished task,” but he claimed clear progress and said he is prepared to build on it

as he embarks on four more years in office.

“We have cleared away the rubble of crisis, and we can say with renewed confidence that the state of our union is strong,” Obama said in an hourlong address to a joint session of Congress and a television audience of millions.

With unemployment persistently high and consumer con-

fidence falling, the economy remains a vulnerability for Obama and could disrupt his plans for pursuing a broader agenda, including immigration overhaul, stricter gun laws and climate change legislation.

Still, fresh off a convincing reelection win, Obama said clear

Rep. Randy Hultgren, R-Winfield “I still think our biggest problem is the unemployment. I just don’t feel like what [Obama’s] been doing has been working. We’ve got to go back to the people who will hire folks.”

Sen. Mark Kirk, R-Ill. “If we can put aside our political differences ... we would avoid the pending sequester and send a strong signal to our creditors that America remains a stable place to conduct business.”

Papal campaigning gets under way

By NICOLE WINFIELD The Associated Press VATICAN CITY – It’s a political campaign like no other, with no declared candidates or front-runners and a well-adhered to taboo against openly gunning for the job.

But the maneuvering to select the next pope already is under way a day after Pope Benedict XVI stunned the world and announced he would retire Feb. 28.

One African contender declared Tuesday it was time for a Third World pope – and said he was free if God wanted him.

Berlin’s archbishop urged mercy for the victor, given the terrible weight of the office, while Mexico City Cardi-

nal Norberto Rivera asked for prayers so that the best man might win.

It’s all part of the ritual of picking a pope, the mysterious process that takes place behind closed doors at the Sistine Chapel, where the “princes” of the church, the 117 or so cardinals under age 80, vote in next month’s conclave.

Once sequestered, they cast secret ballots until they reach a two-thirds majority and elect a new leader of the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics, sending up smoke signals from the chapel’s chimney to tell the world whether they have failed (black) or succeeded (white).

In the run-up to the conclave, cardinals engage in a delicate dance, speaking in general terms about the quali-

ties of a future pope and the particular issues facing the church. It’s rare for anyone to name names, much less tout himself as a candidate.

If asked, most cardinals routinely invoke the refrain: “He who goes into a conclave a pope comes out a cardinal.”

Such genteel public platitudes, however, belie the very real factions within the College of Cardinals that determine the outcome of the vote.

Just because the cardinals all wear the same red cassock and recite the same prayers doesn’t mean they all think alike. They have different visions of what the church needs, different views on critical issues and different allegiances: geographical, sentimental and theological.

And this time around, it seems geography is very much front and center, at least in the public debate that was in full swing Tuesday, the first day of the conclave campaign.

One of Africa’s brightest hopes to be the next pope, Ghanaian Cardinal Peter Turkson, said the time was right for a pontiff from the developing world, and that he’s available for the job “if it’s the will of God.” In an interview with The Associated Press inside his Vatican offices, Turkson said the “young churches” of Africa and Asia have now become solid enough that they have produced “mature clergymen and prelates that are capable of exercising leadership also of this world institution.”

8TODAY’S TALKER

Likely Treasury chief Lew faces early budget tests

By MARTIN CRUTSINGER The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The todo list that awaits Jacob Lew, President Barack Obama’s choice to be Treasury secretary, is daunting.

Bridge disputes in Congress on taxes and spending.

Shrink budget deficits. Manage tense economic ties with China. Press Europe to reduce debts while fighting a recession. Defend the U.S. financial overhaul law. Prevent a global currency war.

And those are just the obvious challenges.

Lew’s job isn’t quite as perilous as the one that greeted the now-departed Timothy Geithner four years ago. As Treasury secretary, Geithner had to help stabilize a teeter-

The economy and banking system are far healthier now.

But if the Senate backs Lew’s nomination after a committee Jack Lew hearing today, he likely will have to marshal all of his strengths as a budget specialist and perhaps overcome inexperience in some areas to achieve significant success.

The federal budget is sure to preoccupy Lew’s early weeks, and it’s also likely to dominate his confirmation hearing before the Senate Finance Committee. Republicans are

Washington policy-making.

He isn’t expected to have trouble winning Senate confirmation, despite the likely arguments from Republicans that the administration isn’t doing enough to contain “entitlement” programs such as Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security whose costs are straining the federal budget.

After today’s hearing, committee members will have two days to send questions to Lew to answer before they vote. The full Senate could vote on the nomination late this month.

That would give Lew little time before his first budget challenge – the March 1 date when deep spending cuts in defense and domestic programs will kick in unless Congress and the administration agree on some way to avert them.

GREAT FALLS, Mont. – A Montana TV station’s regular programming was interrupted by news of a zombie apocalypse.

The Montana Television Network said hackers broke into the Emergency Alert System of Great Falls affiliate KRTV and its CW station Monday.

KRTV said on its website the hackers broadcast that “dead bodies are rising from their graves” in several Montana counties.

The alert claimed the bodies were “attacking the living” and warned people not to “approach or apprehend these bodies as they are extremely dangerous.”

The network said there is no emergency and its engineers are investigating.

A call to KRTV was referred to a Montana Television Network executive in Bozeman.

Jon Saunders didn’t immediately return a call for comment.

The Great Falls Tribune reported the hoax generated at least four calls to police to see whether it was true.

Manhunt for ex-officer ends in cabin

By GILLIAN FLACCUS and TAMI ABDOLLAH The Associated Press BIG BEAR LAKE, Calif. – The manhunt for the former Los Angeles police officer suspected of going on a killing rampage converged Tuesday on a mountain cabin where authorities believe he barricaded himself inside, engaged in a shootout that killed a deputy and never emerged as the home went up in flames.

A single gunshot was heard from within.

If the body of Christopher Dorner is found inside, as authorities suspect, the

search for the most wanted man in America over the past week would have ended the way he had expected — death, with the police pursuing him.

Thousands of officers had been on the hunt for the former Navy reservist since police said he launched a campaign to exact revenge against the Los Angeles Police Department for his firing.

They say he threatened to bring “warfare” to officers and their families, spreading fear and setting off a search for him across the Southwest and Mexico.

“Enough is enough. It’s time for you to turn yourself in. It’s time to stop the

bloodshed,” LAPD Cmdr.

Andrew Smith said at a news conference outside police headquarters in Los Angeles.

A short time after Smith spoke Tuesday, smoke began to rise from the cabin in the snowcovered woods near Big Bear Christopher Lake, a resort town about Dorner 80 miles east of Los Angeles. Flames then engulfed the building.

“We have reason to believe that it is him,” said San Bernardino County sheriff’s spokeswoman Cynthia

Bachman, adding she didn’t know how the fire started.

About 12:20 p.m. Tuesday, deputies got a report of a stolen pickup truck, authorities said. The location was directly across the street from where law enforcement set up their command post on Thursday and not far from where Dorner’s pickup was abandoned.

A warden for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife traveling down Highway 38 recognized a man who fit Dorner’s description traveling in the opposite direction. The officer pursued the vehicle and there was a shooting at 12:42 p.m.

in which the wildlife vehicle was hit numerous times and the suspect escaped on foot after crashing his truck.

Afterholingupinthecabin, there was a second gunbattle with San Bernardino County deputies, two of whom were shot. One died and the other was expected to live after undergoing surgery.

A law enforcement official told The Associated Press that a charred body was found in the burned cabin and reiterated that even after Los Angeles and San Bernardino authorities disputed it in news conferences. The official requested anonymity because of the ongoing investigation.

North Korea conducts Guns topic of race to replace Jackson Jr. 3rd controversial test

By SARA BURNETT

The Associated Press

The ASSOCIATED PRESS PYONGYANG, North Korea – Defying U.N. warnings, North Korea on Tuesday conducted its third nuclear test in the remote, snowy northeast, taking a crucial step toward its goal of building a bomb small enough to be fitted on a missile capable of striking the United States.

North Korea said the atomic test was merely its “first response” to what it called U.S. threats, and said it will continue with unspecified “second and third measures of greater intensity” if Washington maintains its hostility.

The underground test, which set off powerful seismic waves, drew immediate condemnation from Washington, the U.N. and others. Even its only major ally, China, summoned the North’s ambassador for a dressing-down.

President Barack Obama said nuclear tests “do not make North Korea more secure.” Instead, North Korea

has “increasingly isolated and impoverished its people through its ill-advised pursuit of weapons of mass destruction,” he said in a statement.

But the Obama administration’s options for a response are limited, and a U.S. military strike is highly unlikely.

In an emergency session, the U.N. Security Council unanimously said the test poses “a clear threat to international peace and security” and pledged further action.

U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice called the test “highly provocative” and said the North’s continued work on its nuclear and missile programs threatens regional and international peace and security and “the security of a number of countries including the United States.”

“They will not be tolerated,” she said, “and they will be met with North Korea’s increasing isolation and pressure under United Nations sanctions.”

CHICAGO – After months of drama surrounding Jesse Jackson Jr.’s seat in Congress, the race to replace the congressman with the prominent name has pivoted to a different high-profile topic: guns.

Only a short time ago, most of the attention in Illinois’ 2nd District was fixed on Jackson himself, specifically his mysterious leave of absence and a federal investigation, reportedly into misuse of campaign funds.

But December’s school shooting in Connecticut brought renewed attention to Chicago’s own gun violence and refocused one of the nation’s first major elections since the Newtown massacre.

With less than two weeks before the special primary, “A’’ grades from the National Rifle Association are being hurled about like the ugliest of insults. A super PAC backed by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has spent $1.27 million

on ads warning voters to “watch out” for a leading candidate who opposes an assault weapons ban. And a state senator once considered a front-runner dropped out after being arrested for having a handgun in his bag at O’Hare International Airport.

In a contest involving more than a dozen candidates – all with similar backgrounds and none more than marginally Jesse known – guns Jackson Jr. could be the deciding issue. The intense focus on gun policy also raises the question of whether this election will offer a sign of what’s to come in postNewtown politics.

The campaign is unfolding in a district that includes a mix of urban, suburban and rural areas. Nearly half of district voters live on the South Side of Chicago, where some of the nation’s worst gun violence has been heavily concentrated.

Among the victims in that area was 15-year-old honor student Hadiya Pendleton, who police say was shot and killed as she talked with friends in a park not far from President Barack Obama’s Chicago home.

First lady Michelle Obama attended her funeral Saturday.

“The Newtown tragedy touched so many hearts, it raised the prominence of the issue, even in a city that’s seen rampant gun violence. ... And I think Hadiya helped people to see our pain,” said the Rev. Scott Onque of St. Luke Missionary Baptist Church in Chicago. “Those are tragedies that let you know that something has to happen. It makes you think we have to start talking about it a little more.”

Jackson resigned his seat in November, shortly after winning his ninth term despite a monthslong leave of absence.

In his resignation letter, he cited his ongoing treatment for bipolar disorder and acknowledged he is under federal investigation.

8BRIEFS Senate panel approves Hagel for Pentagon chief WASHINGTON – A bitterly divided Senate panel Tuesday approved President Barack Obama’s nomination of Chuck Hagel to be the nation’s defense secretary in a rancorous session at which Republicans questioned the former GOP senator’s truthfulness and challenged his patriotism.

On a party-line vote of 14-11, the Armed Services Committee voted to send the nomination to the full Senate, where Republicans have threatened to delay a vote on the president’s choice to succeed Defense Secretary Leon Panetta. Democrats have the votes to confirm Hagel, a twice-wounded Vietnam combat veteran and former two-term Nebraska senator, and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, DNev., said he would press ahead with a vote on the most divisive nominee of Obama’s secondterm national security team.

Prosecutor: Chicago gang war led to teen’s death CHICAGO – Two men circled a park on Chicago’s South Side looking for members of a rival gang before one crept up on a group seeking shelter from the rain under a canopy and opened fire, striking a 15-year-old honor student who once made a video protesting gang violence, prosecutors said Tuesday.

Details about the death of Hadiya Pendleton emerged during a court hearing in which a judge denied bail for the two men charged with murder in her death, 18-year-old Michael Ward and 20-year-old Kenneth Williams.

Pendleton’s death is one of dozens of homicides in Chicago already this year but has drawn national attention in part because the drum majorette performed at President Barack Obama’s inaugural festivities just days before the shooting.

GOP warns against Jobs, growth dominated Obama’s address tax hikes, spending • OBAMA

Continued from page A1

By KEN THOMAS The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Republicans warned Tuesday that President Barack Obama’s second-term agenda would bring more tax increases and escalate deficit spending, vowing that they would guard against Washington-centric policies and help middle-class families rebound from years of tepid economic growth.

Republicans responded to Obama’s State of the Union address with fresh appeals to voters on the economy, promises to rein in federal spending and address the future of entitlement programs like Medicare.

The party sought to por- Marco Rubio tray itself as an alternative source of policies to grow the economy after the president swept to re-election in November.

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, delivering the Republican response, urged Obama to “abandon his obsession with raising taxes” and said the president had shifted the nation away from free-market economic principles that had helped middle-class families achieve prosperity.

“Presidents in both parties – from John F. Kennedy to Ronald Reagan – have known that our free-enterprise economy is the source of our middleclass prosperity. But President Obama? He believes it’s the cause of our problems,” Rubio said.

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, in a separate tea party response, said both parties had failed voters by driving up trillion-dollar deficits. “Washington acts in a way that your family never could — they spend money they do not have, they borrow from future generations, and then they blame

each other for never fixing the problem,” Paul said in written remarks.

Rubio appeared to wipe away sweat during his rebuttal from the Speaker’s conference room in the U.S. Capitol. At one point, he reached out with his left hand and took a small swig from a Poland Spring water bottle. As the incident generated heavy attention on Twitter, Rubio later tweeted a photo of the water bottle.

Republicans sought to characterize Obama as overly reliant on government, even as the president made his case to the nation that he could generate new jobs without raising the federal deficit. Defending his policies against GOP critics, Obama said the nation needed a “smarter government” instead of a bigger one and pledged to increase federal spending to fix roads and bridges and boost the minimum wage.

Both Obama’s address to Congress and the Republican responses around the Capitol sought to position each party as the champion of average Americans in a nation still grappling with high unemployment and a slow economic recovery. Republicans noted that the nation’s jobless rate ticked up to 7.9 percent in January and the economy shrank at an annual rate of 0.1 percent in the final months of 2012.

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Obama offered the American people “little more than more of the same ‘stimulus’ policies that have failed to fix our economy and put Americans back to work.

We cannot grow the middle class and foster job creation by growing government and raising taxes.”

Ohio Sen. Rob Portman accused Obama of promoting “the same big-government policies that have failed to get our economy up and running again.”

was determined to press his political advantage against a divided, defensive and worried Republican Party. Numerous times he urged Congress to act quickly on his priorities – and vowed to act on some issues on his own if they do not.

Obama also announced new steps to reduce the U.S. military footprint abroad, with 34,000 American troops withdrawing from Afghanistan within a year. And he had a sharp rebuke for North Korea, which launched a nuclear test just hours before his remarks, saying, “Provocations of the sort we saw last night will only isolate them further.”

In specific proposals for shoring up the economy in his second term, an assertive Obama called for increased federal spending to fix the nation’s roads and bridges, the first increase in the minimum wage in six years and expansion of early education to every American 4-year-old.

Seeking to appeal for support from Republicans, he promised that none of his proposals would increase the deficit “by a single dime” although he didn’t explain how he would pay for his programs or how much they would cost.

In the Republican response to Obama’s address,

rising GOP star Marco Rubio of Florida came right back at the president, saying his solution “to virtually every problem we face is for Washington to tax more, borrow more and spend more.”

Sen. Rubio said presidents of both parties have recognized that the free enterprise system brings middle-class prosperity.

“But President Obama?”

Rubio said. “He believes it’s the cause of our problems.”

Still, throughout the House chamber there were symbolic displays of bipartisanship.

Rep. Tammy Duckworth, DIll., arrived early and sat with Sen. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., just returned in January nearly a year after suffering a debilitating stroke. As a captain in the National Guard, Duckworth lost both her legs while serving in Iraq in 2004.

A few aisles away, the top two tax writers in Congress, Rep. Dave Camp, R-Mich., and Sen. Max Baucus, DMont., sat together.

But as a sign that divisions still remain, three of the most conservative Supreme Court justices skipped Obama’s speech. Six of the nine attended. Missing were Justices Clarence Thomas, Antonin Scalia and Samuel Alito.

Jobs and growth dominated Obama’s address. Many elements of his economic blueprint were repacked proposals from his first term that failed to gain traction on

Capitol Hill.

Standing in Obama’s way now is a Congress that remains nearly as divided as it was during the final years of his first term, when Washington lurched from one crisis to another.

The president implored lawmakers to break through partisan logjams, asserting that “the greatest nation on Earth cannot keep conducting its business by drifting from one manufactured crisis to the next.”

“Americans don’t expect government to solve every problem,” he said. “They do expect us to forge reasonable compromise where we can.”

Yet Obama offered few signs of being willing to compromise himself, instead doubling down on his calls to create jobs by spending more governmentmoneyandinsisting that lawmakers pay down the deficit through a combination of targeted spending cuts and tax increases. But he offered few specifics on what he wanted to see cut, focusing instead on the need to protect programs that help the middle class, elderly and poor.

He did reiterate his willingness to tackle entitlement changes, particularly on Medicare, although he has ruled out increasing the eligibility age for the popular benefit program for seniors.

Republicans are ardently opposed to Obama’s calls for legislating more tax rev-

enue to reduce the deficit and offset broad the automatic spending cuts – known as the sequester – that are to take effect March 1. The president accused GOP lawmakers of shifting the cuts from defense to programs that would help the middle class and elderly, as well as those supporting education and job training.

“That idea is even worse,” he said.

Obama broke little new ground on two agenda items he has pushed vigorously since winning re-election: overhauling the nation’s fractured immigration laws and enacting tougher gun control measures in the wake of the horrific massacre of school children in Newtown, Conn.

Yet he pressed for urgency on both, calling on Congress to send him an immigration bill “in the next few months” and insisting lawmakers hold votes on his gun proposals.

“Each of these proposals deserves a vote in Congress,” he said. “If you want to vote no, that’s your choice.”

Numerous lawmakers wore green lapel ribbons in memory of those killed in the December shootings in Connecticut.

Among those watching in the House gallery: the parents of 15-year-old Hadiya Pendleton, shot and killed recently in a park just a mile from the president’s home in Chicago, as well as other victims of gun violence.

People’s bodies change over time, but most of the time, their mattresses don’t. The result?

Back and joint problems, poor sleep, stress and fatigue caused by lack of proper rest.

But Ray Westman, owner of the Verlo Mattress Factory Stores in Crystal Lake, McHenry and Lake Geneva, is committed to helping customers find healthy, restful sleep, not only when their Verlo Mattress is brand new, but also when it’s years old.

“Everyone changes and it’s not realistic to think you’re going to need exactly the same kind of mattress ten years from now that you need today. What we custom build for you now, can be adjusted or repaired to fit your needs in the future,” Westman said.

Specializing in custom-built sleep systems, Wisconsin-based Verlo Mattress was founded in 1958 and now has more than forty franchise locations.

Westman has been with Verlo Mattress since 1985, and purchased his first Verlo store in 1994.

He now owns three showrooms, and a production facility in McHenry.

In a time when mattresses are sold at big box and discount stores, in addition to mattress retailers, Westman is proud to offer something more than the typical cookie-cutter approach.

“Your body, your comfort needs and sleep habits all influence the kind of sleep set we build for you,” he said.

Ken Fishleigh, owner of Nero’s Pizza & Pub, has been an outspoken proponent of allowing video gambling in the village.

showroom, or online with the Verlo Virtual Craftsman. “We’ll discuss who is using the mattress, a single person or a couple, a child or a teen, your preferred sleeping position, back or neck issues, and firmness preference. Often, the craftsman who will build your mattress is the person helping you on the sales floor,” Westman said.

Using top quality materials, trained craftsmen construct your sleep system locally, the day before it is delivered.

Bucking the trend toward shorter-life no-flip mattresses, Verlo still builds two-sided mattresses, something informed, quality-conscious customers appreciate. “The people who buy from us understand the continuing value of a customdesigned locally built product,” Westman said.

In addition to innerspring mattresses, Verlo also carries Visco Foam, Gel Foam, VerloAIRE beds, sleep accessories to complete your custom sleep system, adjustable beds and futon sofa sleepers in a wide variety of styles.

In a tight economy, Westman understands that customers’ budgets are stretched tighter than ever before. “Because customers have less disposable income, the reality means that we’re competing against other needs, ranging from a new refrigerator to car repair. Fortunately, our industry has done an excellent job of educating consumers on the importance of a good night’s sleep,” he said.

Progress on new hospital We’re pleased to see progress on Centegra Health System’s plans to build a new hospital in Huntley.

Centegra officials are scheduled to discuss the project with the Village Board and village staff at a meeting Thursday night.

The $233 million, 128-bed hospital is expected to break ground in the fall at Centegra’s existing health care campus For the record near Haligus and Reed roads. This Centegra Health System’s project will be an plans to build a new hospital economic boon in Huntley continue to move to Huntley and forward. Three public meetings the entire region. are scheduled regarding the More importantly, new hospital. it will provide residents who live in the area better access to health care.

About 800 construction jobs will be created as it’s being built, and an additional 1,100 permanent jobs are expected to be added after the new hospital opens, scheduled for 2016.

Part of Thursday’s meeting will focus on Centegra’s decision to build the hospital toward the middle of its Health Bridge and ambulatory care mall, near Algonquin Road, a half mile south of the original location.

We don’t see the proposed move as a big deal.

In addition to Thursday’s meeting, two public informational meetings have been scheduled at Huntley’s municipal complex. The first is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 19; the second for 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 6.

We encourage members of the public who have any questions about the hospital project to attend one of these meetings.

After the Great Recession stalled new development in McHenry County and just about everywhere else, it’s exciting to see a project of this size and importance close to getting started.

We can’t wait for the first bulldozer to break ground.

Promise kept Kathleen Kane, Pennsylvania’s new attorney general, has made good on her campaign pledge to investigate how the criminal case against former Pennsylvania State University football coach Jerry Sandusky was handled.

Kane, a Democrat, appointed H. Geoffrey Moulton Jr., a former federal prosecutor, to conduct “a comprehensive and independent examination of the facts,” Kane said in a statement.

As attorney general when the probe began, Gov. Tom Corbett has been criticized because it took the Attorney General’s Office nearly three years to investigate Sandusky before he was charged in November 2011 with sexually abusing eight boys. Sandusky was convicted on June 22 of 45 of 48 counts of child sexual abuse.

Kane is doing the right thing in authorizing an independent look at this notorious case, and her choice of Moulton is drawing praise from those who know him. “If her goal is to say to the citizens that she wants this investigation to be balanced, fair and completely on the up and up, she couldn’t have made a better choice,” Daniel Richman, a Columbia University Law School teacher who knows Moulton, told the Harrisburg Patriot-News.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Time for a change To the Editor: Four years of Linda Moore’s leadership resulted in more than $600,000 in legal fees and $6,000 in late fees. Bills were not paid; grants were lost due to ineptitude; help for the poor was reduced; and money was squandered and spent on trivial things. She is in court with everyone, including her family. It is time for a change.

Pam Fender is a highly qualified civic leader. A Huntley village trustee since 2005, Pam voted against tax increases and worked collaboratively to create marked improvements in the village. She is the founder of Huntley Fall Fest, president of Huntley Historical Society, an active member of her church, a Jaycee and the recipient of three community service awards.

Fender will use tax dollars wisely to help senior citizens and the poor. She will restore transparency and good governance. Please vote for Fender on Feb. 26 and April 9.

Not welcome To the Editor: I am a lifelong McHenry resident, a lifelong St. Mary’s parishioner, and a Montini mom. I would like to know why Thornton’s would even consider the corner of Route 31 and Pearl Street a viable location for a gas station. In addition to the added traffic a gas station would generate, the neighbors have made it very clear with their “no gas station” signs that Thornton’s is not

welcome in their neighborhood.

I have yet to speak with one McHenry resident who thinks this is a good idea. The City Council needs to see past the dollar signs they think a Thornton’s could generate and think about the safety of our schoolchildren and the integrity of our historic downtown McHenry.

My plea to our City Council is this: Please look at all the vacant storefronts in McHenry (and there are many) and solicit tenants to fill those before breaking ground on new buildings. Please vote “no” to a Thornton’s on Route 31 and Pearl Street.

Rational discussion To the Editor: Rather than focus on the misinformation, obfuscation and innuendo that characterized Patrick Donlea’s Feb. 4 response to my Jan. 9 letter, I’d like to give a big shout out to Bill and Mary Winkel for their Feb. 5 comments.

I’m sure there are many people who think that “responsible gun owner” is an oxymoron. I have never subscribed to this idea.

While I do not believe in owning guns (and concede to knowing very little about them), I count a number of hunters among my friends and acquaintances.

Like Mr. and Mrs. Winkel, they don’t see the need for weapons that fire multiple rounds. Does anyone really doubt that if the assailant in Connecticut were equipped with handgun(s) or even

Thank you to the Winkels for trying to inject some rationality into the discussion. It is only through a dialogue among people who are not narrow-minded or have agendas that we can begin to arrive at a fair conclusion.

Explore other ways To the Editor: There is no question that the state of Illinois has a serious financial problem and that the underfunding of the state pension systems is being viewed as a large part of that problem.

For this I say “shame, shame, and shame!”

Shame on those past and present legislators who, for many years, did not live up to their legal obligation to contribute the required amount to the Illinois pension fund.

Not only did they not contribute, they borrowed from that fund and did not repay what they borrowed!

the financial problems of Illinois on the backs of present retirees.

These retirees lived up to their legal obligations and spent years contributing a percentage of their salary to their retirement system in good faith.

Shame on the current legislators who are only presenting so-called solutions that will take away constitutionally protected benefits from retirees and not listening to constituents or coming up with alternative solutions to the financial crisis. Is there no realization that taking away these benefits can lead only to costly lawsuits (which will lead only to further financial problems for the state) and disillusionment with public service?

Action is needed, but the solution is not to take away benefits from a dedicated group of citizens who devoted their lives to public service.

I urge our legislators to think outside their present mindset and begin to explore and examine other ways to solve this desperate situation.

By his inaction, Obama has made the Syria crisis worse We finally have an Obama Doctrine. It is not quite the one outlined in various major speeches – Cairo, Berlin or the Greco-Roman one delivered at the 2008 Democratic National Convention – but one that has been ingloriously revealed through news leaks and virtually coerced congressional testimony regarding Syria: In a pinch, look the other way.

We know now that much of the national security apparatus favored taking some action. Leon Panetta, the departing secretary of defense, and Hillary Clinton, until recently the secretary of state, wanted to arm the Syrian rebels. So did then-CIA Director David Petraeus. The White House vetoed this proposal, ostensibly on the grounds that the very weapons provided could wind up in the hands of al-Qaida and its affiliates, and be used against America or American interests. This is the dreaded – and often hyped – blowback.

But after well more than a year into the civil war – it started nearly

Editorial Board: John Rung, Dan McCaleb, Kevin Lyons, Stacia Hahn, Jon Styf, Kate Schott

two years ago – the CIA should have had some notion of who could be trusted with the weapons and who could not. (An intelligence budget in excess of $50 billion a year ought to buy something.) More to the point, the winners would be grateful to the U.S. for the weapons and maybe, just maybe, become our pals once the war was over.

Providing arms was just one way the Obama administration could have aided the Syrian insurgents.

The U.S. and NATO could have instituted a no-fly zone, keeping Bashar al-Assad’s helicopters and warplanes on the ground. This could have made a major difference.

And none of this, mind you, entailed putting boots on the ground. Syria has formidable air defenses, but not so formidable that Israel, when it wants, can’t bomb installations of its choosing.

President Obama’s inaction has cost the region plenty. It has permitted a humanitarian calamity to metastasize – 5,000 refugees a day, according to the U.N. It has allowed

VIEWS Richard Cohen the most radical of the insurgents to come to the fore and has flooded nearby countries with refugees, upsetting carefully calibrated ethnic balances. Jordan, a nation of 6.5 million people, has 300,000 Syrian refugees; Lebanon has nearly as many. The size of the influx could overwhelm these small and contrived nations.

Obama, of course, has been asked about his policy. The answer he provided The New Republic recently is troubling: “How do I weigh tens of thousands who’ve been killed in Syria versus the tens of thousands who are currently being killed in the Congo?” The statement is disingenuous, suggesting that the inability to do everything excuses the unwillingness to do anything.

It also begs the question of why he militarily intervened in Libya, the

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

Congo civil war notwithstanding.

Obama’s reason for inaction in Syria is so unconvincing it suggests that it was the looming election that prompted him to play it safe. Here, after all, was a president seeking re-election on what amounted to a peace platform: He had ended U.S. combat involvement in Iraq and was winding things down in Afghanistan. How could he justify intervention in Syria? Maybe by saying that the region was about to blow up, that Syria was lousy with chemical weapons, that the Kurds might break away (Kurdistan is the next Palestine), that a sectarian blood bath loomed and that thousands of civilians were in mortal danger. By now, more than 70,000 of them have been killed.

Recently, Obama has been likened to President Dwight Eisenhower. There are, of course, some similarities – there always are – but in one significant way, cited in the recent book by David A. Nichols (“Eisenhower 1956”), they’re different. In the Suez crisis of 1956, Ike

strongly condemned the invasion of Egypt by Britain, France and Israel – three allies – even though some thought it was politically unwise to do so. “I don’t give a damn how the election goes,” he told British Prime Minister Anthony Eden on Election Day itself. His paramount concerns, he said, were the revolution in Hungary and the Suez invasion.

At the moment, it’s impossible to imagine Obama making a comparable statement. (He couldn’t even fully support same-sex marriage until Joe Biden forced the issue, and he was likewise mute about gun control until after the election and the massacre at Newtown, Conn.)

His foreign policy has similarly lacked any sense of moral urgency.

As a result, the situation in Syria has worsened. It now is becoming a regional catastrophe that will soon enough pull in the U.S. anyway.

Obama purportedly feared making the war worse. By inaction, he has.

VEHICLE FLIPS NEAR HIGH SCHOOL CRYSTAL LAKE – A vehicle flipped on its side in a crash Tuesday afternoon near Prairie Ridge High School. The driver was not injured, authorities said.

The female driver, an adult and not a student at the school, lost control of the vehicle for unknown reasons, McHenry County sheriff’s deputy Aimee Knop said.

The woman was alone and driving north on Walkup Road between Vermont Trail and Dvorak Drive when her vehicle rolled onto its side and landed in the roadway about 1:45 p.m., Knop said. The crash was not weather-related, she said.

The driver did not require transportation to a hospital, Knop said.

Walsh vows to sue Chicago paper Ex-rep’s child support payments at heart of story

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com Former tea party U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh said he will sue the Chicago Sun-Times over a story that said he is trying to end his childsupport obligations.

The story, first reported online Monday, said the one-term Republican congressman was

seeking to stop child-support payments after losing his 2012 reelection bid. Walsh’s attorneys filed a request Feb. 1 to lower his obligation to 20 percent of his salary until his youngest of three children with his ex-wife graduates high school in May and therefore is emancipated. Walsh, of McHenry, was voted out of office Nov. 6 and has had no salary

since his term ended Jan. 3.

The fact that Walsh’s ex-wife sued him in 2011 for allegedly owing more than $100,000 in child support became part of the bitter campaign for the 8th Congressional District that he lost to Democrat Tammy Duckworth.

Walsh said in a statement Monday that the Sun-Times libeled him by stating he did not

want to make payments and that he was behind on payments. The article quoted the attorney for Walsh’s ex-wife as saying he has not paid what is due for January or February.

“I have never shirked my financial responsibility for my children. The Sun Times [sic] has had a vendetta against me since I was first elected. I will no longer take it. I have had to live with the

8ENVIRONMENT TIP

H-AXIS WASHERS EASY ON WATER The most efficient washer on the market today is called a horizontal-axis, or H-axis, machine.

These washers spin horizontally, as a dryer does, and tumble clothes through a pool of shallow water.

This design requires much less water than a standard washer, which soaks clothes in a 40- to 60-gallon vat.

When considering a new washer, consider such technology. A washing machine typically lasts 14 years and over time, the savings in energy, water, money and environmental impact is significant.

Retired director to form District 156 city public works budget seeks bids for Woodstock man left post in Nov.

By SHAWN SHINNEMAN sshinneman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Former public works Director John Isbell will assemble the department’s 2013-14 budget despite health problems that forced his early

retirement.

Isbell announced last year he would end his 28-year tenure as head of public works after assembling the budget. But “medical issues” forced Isbell to retire in late November, City Manager Tim Clifton said.

The city has contracted with Isbell to complete the department budget, which consists of eight divisions. Jeff Van Landuyt, formerly assistant public

works director, is interim director.

“It doesn’t mean that Jeff isn’t involved, because he reviews it all,” Clifton said. “But the detailed review of all those budget processes would have taken Jeff, who would have been new to it, away from all the operational duties and citizen response and things of that nature.”

HUNTLEY – Lakewood preschool students learned Tuesday the value of helping the community by delivering food to a local food pantry.

Chesterbrook Academy students gathered food for the past two weeks and delivered it to the Grafton Food Pantry in Huntley.

The donation was part of the students’ lesson in community service, Chesterbrook Principal Sandy Jenner said. “It shows them what being a community helper is, because that’s what we’ve been working on the past few weeks.”

The donations come at a critical time for the Grafton Food Pantry, which is experiencing fewer donations in the thick of

by July.

This year, the McHenry High School district became eligible for 50 percent reimbursement for telecommications and Internet services under the Federal Communication Commission e-rate program.

The reimbursement rate is based on a school’s percentage of low-income students.

School administrators and staff at both campuses have been taking inventory of the district’s increasingly outdated and limited computer network for more than a year.

On average, computers at both campuses are 10 years old, and classrooms lack projectors, meaning that teachers have to share mobile projectors.

Internet service runs at 41 megabytes, a small bandwidth network, said Joseph Zelek, director of network technology services.

After the students dropped off their donations, Ford showed them around the facility and explained the food pantry’s function. She said she was thrilled the students were able to see the pantry in person.

“It’s wonderful to have the children involved in this,” Ford said. “We have many schools that do drives … but this is the only school that actually comes to visit.”

Jenner said taking students to the pantry helps them better understand what it means to help the community.

“Bringing them here really gets them to understand what it’s about, where the food is going, and that they’re actually bringing it here and putting it on the shelves,” she said. “Being 4 and 5 years old, they don’t really get it unless they see it.”

This was Chesterbrook’s second annual food drive, and the school plans to continue the tradition.

Grafton Food Pantry, at 11481 Allison Court, is a nonprofit organization that provides food to people in Huntley, Lakewood and parts of Crystal Lake and Algonquin.

The pantry accepts perishable and nonperishable food items, household cleaning items, personal grooming items, paper goods and gas gift cards.

Motorists were forced to use an alternate route on Charles Miller Road in McHenry for more than 20 minutes after a parts of a construction crane fell on the east side of the bridge, blocking traffic, McHenry County sheriff’s Deputy Aimee Knop said. The crane fell after malfunctioning while crews worked on the north side of the bridge, she said. No one was injured and no vehicles were damaged.

Libel tougher to prove for officials • WALSH Continued from page B1 ‘deadbeat dad’ label, even though the original case against me was dropped one year ago, and my ex-wife acknowledged that I have always been a loving and supportive father,” Walsh said.

Under the law, a plaintiff has to prove that a published statement was untrue, was made without privilege of public record or public proceeding, and damaged the plaintiff’s reputation. Public officials, such as Walsh, have a harder time proving libel because they have the added burden of proving actual malice, meaning that the statement’s authors knew it to be false or

published it with reckless disregard for the truth.

The Sun-Times story, since updated online, quotes Walsh as saying he’s not trying to get out of paying child support.

The article also links to a copy of the request filed in court.

Both Walsh and his exwife, Laura, announced in April 2012 that they had solved their dispute and that she was dropping her lawsuit.

The statement attributed to both of them stated that they agree Walsh was not a deadbeat dad.

Issues with his personal finances dogged the tea party firebrand through his entire congressional career. He had to deal during his 2010 campaign with news that he lost his Evanston condo to foreclo-

sure the year before, and his former campaign manager sued for $20,000 in back payments. That lawsuit later was settled. News of the child-support lawsuit came just after Walsh made a video blasting the Obama administration and Democrats for fiscal irresponsibility.

Walsh represented the 8th District, which included northeastern McHenry County, for two years after he narrowly defeated three-term Democratic incumbent Melissa Bean. The Illinois Democratic post-census remap put Walsh into the 14th District now represented by Republican Randy Hultgren. Walsh chose to run in the 8th, which mapmakers shifted south to more Democrat-friendly territory.

FOX LAKE – The Fox Lake Village Board on Tuesday approved definitions of bars and restaurants where there were none before and may be able to use them to limit the businesses that can install video gaming machines.

Under state law, if a municipality authorizes video gaming, any establishment with a liquor license, plus truck stops and fraternal organizations, can install up to five machines.

Defining the types of businesses that can apply for liquor licenses might be a way around officials’ concerns about video gaming, Village Attorney Howard

Teegen said.

In its next meetings, the Plan Commission will take on establishing subcategories of businesses that can apply for liquor licenses, said Plan Commission Chairman David Gauger.

Fox Lake stopped issuing liquor licenses in October after the village was approached by businesses that intended to make gaming machines the center of their business plan.

As it stands now, the village can’t implement controls over the gaming because it’s regulated by the state, said Trustee Kevin Burt, who serves as a liaison to the Plan Commission.

“Once they have a liquor license, we have no say at all,” he said.

District will ask to use savings • D-156 Continued from page B1 toward efficiency and enhanced classroom learning.

Efforts to revamp the infrastructure coincides with an upcoming referendum.

The school district will ask voters April 9 to use

$2.2 million saved in the refinancing of $29 million in bonds for infrastructure and to upgrade technology rather that returning the money to homeowners in a slight property-tax reduction. If voters reject the referendum, the tax bill for the owner of a $200,000 house would go down about $14 a year.

Choice of city manager affects public works hiring • PUBLIC WORKS Continued from page B1 Clifton said the arrangement won’t put a strain on the budget process. He said Isbell was able to get needed information from Van Landuyt and various superintendents without having to deal with other department issues. “So it’s going to be an even more thorough budget analysis,” Clifton said.

Public works includes the streets, parks, sewer and wa-

ter maintenance, water treatment, wastewater treatment, fleet maintenance, engineering and administration divisions.

Isbell – who was hired by the city in 1984 – couldn’t be reached for comment Tuesday.

Clifton is retiring and the city will wait until a new city manager is chosen to select a permanent public works director. The City Council is expected to make a decision on Clifton’s replacement Tuesday.

H. Joseph Gitlin, Attorney Joe Gitlin of Woodstock was listed as one of the nation’s top 43 divorce lawyers in the National Law Journal and is listed in The Best Lawyers in America. He is also ranked as an Illinois Leading Lawyer (member of Advisory Board) and Super Lawyer.

The problem: Infertility.

It used to be that there was no solution to the problem. A couple was simply barren, but recently there came along the science of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART).

SPERM DONATION. Sperm banks have been around for a long time.

Typically, the sperm donor relinquishes all claims to the resulting child and there is confidentiality. Usually one can obtain physical characteristics etc. of the sperm donor from the sperm bank. The largest sperm bank is California Cryobank. Both fresh and frozen semen can be used for fertilization. Some people choose not to go the sperm bank – medical route. These are known as “turkey baster” pregnancies.

EGG DONATION. This involves extraction of the eggs from the donor in a medical procedure. The donor undergoes

hormone therapy. The compensation for the egg donor varies from several thousand dollars to $50,000. The Center for Egg Options is an egg donor agency in Northbrook, Illinois. (www.egg411.com).

EMBRYO DONATIONS. Couples undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) often have left over embryos which are frozen in the event they decide to use them in the future. Often these embryos are not used by the couple so they are available for an infertile couple from IVF agencies.

IN VITRO FERTILIZATION (IVF). IVF is the “test tube” means of creating an embryo. The sperm and the egg are fertilized in a petri dish (“test tube”). In the last decade, more than 20,000 babies were born each year after being conceived using IVF. The IVF process involves the stimulation of the woman’s ovaries to produce eggs which are removed from her body for fertilization in the petri dish. The resulting fertilized embryos are returned to the woman’s uterus.

The procedure for IVF requires a woman to take fertility drugs for a month or more.

One of the more dramatic uses of IVF is known by its initials, ICSI, which is Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection. It is used when the male’s semen carries few or too few sperm capable of reaching the egg. In

the ICSI process a single sperm is obtained and injected into the egg. This is in contrast to the usual millions of sperm which try to find their way in coital fertilization.

A SURROGATE CARRIER. A surrogate is a woman who will carry the child instead of the intended mother. A surrogate can be the biological mother of the child if she is artificially inseminated with the intended father’s sperm. A surrogate can also be a gestational carrier. A gestational carrier is a woman whose eggs are not fertilized, but instead an embryo is implanted in her. Illinois has the most user friendly gestational surrogacy laws in the world. In an Illinois gestational surrogacy there is no need to go through a court proceeding for the intended parents to be declared the legal parents of the child, and Illinois has no requirement that the intended parents or the gestational surrogate must be residents of Illinois. The legal requirement suggests, however, that the medical procedures involved in the IVF procedure and the delivery be conducted in Illinois.

MORE INFORMATION. See www.gitlin.com for more information on surrogacy.

Standards Link: Mathematical Reasoning: Extend simple patterns.

Cut out the three bingo cards and give one to each player.

VALENTINE MATH HEALTHY TURNS HEARTS BINGO MIX NEWSPAPER HAPPY HOME CARD YOU ANY GIVE

Cut out the numbered hearts. Each player places 25 numbered hearts in any order they want on their card.

Cut out the math problem cards, place them in a small bowl and mix them up.

Taking turns, each player pulls one math problem from the bowl and reads it aloud.

If a player has the answer to that math problem on their card, they remove that numbered heart. (Example: If the math problem is 1 + 1, the player with “2” on their card removes it.)

The first player to remove five numbered hearts in a horizontal, diagonal, or vertical line wins.

Find the words in the puzzle. Then look for each word in this week’s Kid Scoop stories and activities.

Heart Thumping Ideas Students describe what they like to do to exercise the heart.

I run to exercise my heart. I do it at school. I’m really fast. The proof that I am fast is that I have two running medals. I run a lot.

Sometimes I also run outside at my house. I also run and jog when we are going somewhere.

William, 2nd grade

The thing I like to do to exercise my heart is to run track. Usually on P.E. days, we will run the track.

I always run about three or four laps as fast as I can.

Tyler, 4th grade

I like to play sports to get my heart pumping. For example, I play field hockey, soccer, football, dodge ball, basketball, relay races, capture the flag, roller skating, roller blading and biking. Roller coasters really get your heart thumping, especially the upside down ones.The video game system Wii also gets your heart thumping. I also like to do the basics. Example: areobics, touches and jumping jacks. That is what gets my heart thumping.

Elissa, 4th grade Exercise your heart! You want to get your heart thumping? Well, you came to the right place. If it’s hot outside, run in your yard until you have had enough.Now, if it’s cold outside, I would speedwalk everywhere I could go. Wait! Stop!

Don’t break anything. Don’t forget to drink water and eat healthily.

When running in the yard, watch out for dog droppings.

Zoe, 4th grade

Deadline: March 10 Published: Week of Apr. 7

To exercise my heart I like to sprint.

I sprint at least two or three times a week. Sprinting helps my heart because when you go tremendously fast, it helps your heart to get sturdy, which lets blood stream more efficiently through your veins.

Before I sprint, I must stretch out my arms and legs. If I don’t stretch, I could have injuries. For instance, I could strain my muscles or ligaments. First, I regularly do 15 to 20 lunges and high knees. I do one circuit of jogging, then it’s time to hit the sprints.

Tami, 4th grade I love to run with my dog Oreo.

Sometimes we go in the back yard and play fetch or tag. That keeps my heart going. Whenever I run the Great Train Race, that also keeps my heart going. At home when I’m bored, I go outside and run a few laps or ride my bike or scooter at the park. While I keep my heart going, I have fun.

Emma, 4th grade

Please include your school and grade.

When I swim I get my heart pounding. I start slowly but then I gradually speed things up until I’m doing my very fastest freestyle. I would like to be an Olympic swimmer one day but for now, it is good exercise and I can get my heart thumping.

Alyson, 3rd grade I play basketball when I want to get some exercise. Sometimes my friends come over and we will play in teams and sometimes I just shoot hoops by myself. It is good exercise and it gets my heart thumping.

Jack, 2nd grade I play soccer in the winter and baseball in the summer and I like to run track at school. We try to run a mile in the faster time and that is good heart exercise.

Rapids.

Joanne was born Dec. 3, 1932, in Racine, Wis., daughter of Frank Braun and Clara (Mueller) Braun.

She raised seven children in a small midstate town. With a sound German upbringing to lean on, she strode forward down the aisle on the arm of the recently graduated captain of the ’53 Fighting Irish football team, Don Penza. They started a life together in 1954 that would one day shape the lives of their own children and those of countless other young people. She grew up the fifth of seven children, honing skills and disciplines taught to her generation on a strong German farm in the Midwest. Growing strawberries, excelling in sports and mastering the art of sewing became lifelong activities that she made look effortless.

Joanne’s athleticism rivaled that of her husband. A fearless competitor, even the occasional black eye from playing baseball with the boys didn’t discourage her zeal for the game. A Junior Belle in the 1940s, she was said to have scored the tying run in the 3-2 extra-inning victory over the Rockford Peaches. She’d find every opportunity to finish chores and hustle off to the ball field to challenge whoever was up for playing.

In her athleticism, she passed on her dexterity and balance to her children and grandchildren, along with common sense, the gumption to get it done and a practicality that is truly a rare package.

Joanne raised her seven children in a time and with a perspective that valued faith, family and the proper order of things. She kept her house and its rituals in line with how her mother taught her: Meals each week have their proper day; laundry and washing are done according to schedule; and planting tomatoes, strawberries and canning fruit all can be done while the children nap. Teaching her children schedules and filling their lives with predictable, comforting

patterns gave them the courage to one day as adults feel confident In their abilities to get things done – well and on time.

She knew the responsibilities of the wife of a prominent citizen, too. In Jacqueline Kennedyesque fashion, she wore the pill box hat well, kept her children neatly dressed and on task and took her place as the Newcomer’s Club President. She hosted morning Coffee Klutch gatherings and looked beautiful at the victory celebration when Don was elected to the first of five terms as mayor.

She contributed the elements of confidence in her husband, support for his ambitions and a guide during times of change and turmoil.

She would help her husband govern a city, run a small business and one day stand next to him after receiving his third consecutive state football championship.

She knew her role for his success and still sought out her own opportunities to grow and expand her skills. She eventually obtained her real-estate license and became one of the top selling agents in her community. She knew how important a home was and it was a natural fit that she helped so many people find their own homes.

It would be in her mid-50s when life would suddenly get more taxing than all of the previous events combined. She would become a widow at 56. With two children in high school and the rest still wading through the issues of young adult life, Joanne would become the sole support for her family.

The death of her husband wasn’t just a family tragedy; she would help a whole community mourn the death of a well-respected and well-loved leader. She grieved her own personal loss and then turned immediately to become the solitary head of her family.

Over the next 24 years, Joanne would be the matriarch of a family that comprised 21 grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren, new

sons and daughters through marriage, and the deaths of a sonin-law and her own mother. She comforted, counseled, made jokes and passed on nuggets of wisdom sometimes so subtle they almost eluded you.

Joanne truly deserves a great story of her own intertwined with the role she played in the great story of her husband, Don. As a couple, their shared disciplines, faith and values imparted gifts of character, leadership, selflessness and humility to all those they touched. Her contribution to their marriage, children and accomplishments won’t be forgotten and will be indescribably missed by those left behind.

Survivors include her children, Don (Cherie), Pat (Sue), Jan (Dan), Rich (Karen), Beth (Walter), Greg (Brandi) and Kris (Matt); 21 grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; and two brothers, Jerry (Sue) and Don (Carol) Braun.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Don; twin daughters, Rose Mary and Mary Clare; her parents; and siblings, Cecilia Dailey, Edmund Braun, Evelyn Jonas and Frank Braun.

The visitation will be from 4 to 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 15, at SchneiderLeucht-Merwin & Cooney Funeral Home, 1211 N. Seminary Ave., Woodstock. The funeral Mass will be celebrated at 11 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 16, at St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church, 451 W. Terra Cotta Ave., Crystal Lake.

Interment will be in the Calvary Catholic Cemetery in Woodstock In lieu of flowers, the family welcomes donations to The Donald F. Penza College Scholarship Trust, in care of Beth McKinney, 27044 Channel Lane, Valencia, CA 91355.

Raiders clinch share of Valley title Can win 3rd straight division crown outright Friday with win against C-G

By JOE STEVENSON

Online

joestevenson@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – Huntley’s opponents know a tough defensive challenge is coming when they step on the court against the Red Raiders.

“Our defense has helped us all year,” Huntley forward Zach Gorney said. “When our offense is working, too, we’re really tough to beat.”

Huntley’s defense, particularly in the second half, has rarely been better. The offense was pretty good, as well, as the RaidSarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com ers disposed of Jacobs, 54-26, huntley’s Zach gorney shoots over a Jacobs defender during in their Fox Valley Conference the fourth quarter of Tuesday night’s game in huntley. hunt- Valley Division boys basketball ley won, 54-26. game Tuesday night.

Watch highlights of the Jacobs vs.

Huntley boys basketball game online at MchenryCounty Sports.com.

Huntley (16-7 overall, 10-1 FVC Valley) clinched a share of its third consecutive Valley Division championship three days after its 29-game division winning streak was halted by Dundee-Crown.

The Raiders can win it outright with a victory against Cary-Grove on Friday or if D-C loses either of its final games against Crystal Lake South or

C-G. “I wanted to make sure we weren’t feeling sorry for ourselves after that,” Raiders coach Marty Manning said. “I was happy with the effort on Saturday [against D-C], we just had trouble putting the ball in the basket.”

The Raiders took a 26-19 halftime lead on Tommy Regan’s 3-pointer from the right corner, then put the game away in the third quarter. Jacobs (14-13, 7-4) went 1 of 23 from the field in the second half.

Amanze Egekeze, Hunt ley’s 6-foot-7 junior forward, blocked three shots in the third quarter to help set the tone, despite having three fouls at halftime.

“I know I can play with fouls,” Egekeze said. “I’m pretty good at managing that, so coach

left me in there. I feel like I can alter shots even if I don’t get my hand on them. We had a lot of energy. We just clamped down on them.”

Egekeze sparked the offense with a tip-in, a rebound putback and an 8-foot shot from the right baseline in the third quarter for six of his nine points. Gorney led Huntley with 15, hitting 7 of 8 free throws, and Jake Wagner scored 14.

“We played really well,” Manning said. “We had hands up on them and Amanze was there to clean things up on the boards.”

Jacobs, which beat CaryGrove 77-63 on Saturday, shot 18.9 percent (7 of 37) from the field for the game.

VIEWS Tom Musick

Hawks’ hot start is no fantasy CHICAGO – Maybe you think of Queen when “Bohemian Rhapsody” plays on the radio.

I think of “Wayne’s World.”

Then I think of Wayne and Garth’s beloved Blackhawks.

“Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?”

Great questions.

After yet another nail-biter by the Blackhawks, who remained unbeaten in regulation time but fell to 10-0-3 with a shootout loss to the Anaheim Inside Ducks, I couldn’t help but wonder.

Viktor Fasth Is this the real makes two stops life? Is this just in the shootout fantasy? to remain perfect I mean, this in six starts, and can’t be real, can it?

Anaheim beats The regular season the Hawks 3-2. is more than oneStory on Page C6. quarter complete, and the Hawks have yet to lose a nonshootout game. They have 23 points out of a possible 26.

Using my five senses, I put the topic to the test.

Game on.

VISION The first-place Blackhawks sure look real.

From a black folding chair in the upper levels of the United Center, I watched Corey Crawford make an incredible, sprawling save on a point-blank shot in the first period.

I watched Nick Leddy raise his stick and blast a shot into the net for a Hawks goal. I watched a determined group of Hawks kill off a 5-on-3 penalty. I watched Bryan Bickell absorb a few punches before he wrestled an angry Duck to the ice.

But then I watched Crawford give up back-to-back goals in the shootout, and I watched Ducks goaltender Viktor Something-or-Other stuff shots by Patrick Kane and Brandon Saad. During a charmed season, a one-point night counts as a disappointment for the Hawks.

HEARING The Hawks passed the hearing test before first-line center Jonathan Toews hunched over and won the opening faceoff.

8INSIDE WRESTLING Athlete of the Week ANTHONY LUIS Harvard, jr.

Luis won the Class 1A Oregon Sectional at 106 pounds Saturday. In the semifinals, Luis (36-6), defeated Erie-Prophetstown’s Brandon McCullough, 7-3. McCullough (35-3) is ranked No. 5 by illinoismatmen.com. Luis decisioned No. 6-ranked Hunter Spengler (31-5) from Sherrard, 8-1, in the championship match.

Luis is ranked No. 2.

Noteworthy Qualifiers: There were 36 area wrestlers who qualified for the state finals with top-four finishes in sectional tournaments Saturday. By Class, there were four in 1A, 20 in 2A and 12 in 3A. By place, there were five champions, 10 runners up, 12 thirds and nine fourth places.

Sectional champions were Luis in 1A, Richmond-Burton’s Garret Sutton at 152 and Crystal Lake Central’s Andrew Marsden (170) in 2A and Cary-Grove’s Michael Cullen (113) and McHenry’s Wade Lardy (145) in 3A. The consolation semifinals were the sectional elimination rounds. Winning sends wrestlers into the third-place match and losing ends the season. In those critical matches, area wrestlers were 20-7.

Class 3A’s 12 qualifiers is the most in that class since wrestling split into three classes in the 2008-2009 school year.

Last year in 3A, there were eight qualifiers. Cullen, Lardy and Crystal Lake South’s Nick Gil are the only returning state qualifiers in 3A. In all classes, 13 of the 36 area state qualifiers also qualified last year.

There are five returning state place winners who are looking to improve or repeat their finish from last year. Luis was fourth at 106 in 1A last year. In 2A, Richmond-Burton’s Grant Sutton (fifth at 106), Cameron Kennedy (third at 120) and Garrett Sutton (third at 138) all return to state.

Cullen (fourth at 106) returns in 3A. Also, coming one match from placing last year were Johnsburg’s Branden Peshek, who lost in an ultimate tiebreaker in the quarterfinal wrestlebacks, and Gil, who also lost in the quarterfinal wrestlebacks.

That was no decision: Marsden dominated in winning his sectional title, but the IHSA results did not report the correct score. The official results had Marsden winning by decision in the semifinals and finals at Antioch. In reality, Marsden recorded a secondperiod pin against Wauconda’s Alex Schwickrath in the semis.

In the finals, Marsden pinned Montini’s Michael Maduko in the third period.

Schwickrath is ranked No. 12 and Maduko is No. 3. Marsden (39-4) is ranked No. 2 and has five pins in his five regional and sectional matches.

D-C’s season ends in semifinals Michalski grabs a game-high 13 rebounds, adds 4 points

By PATRICK MASON pmason@shawmedia.com STREAMWOOD – Bus rides to tournaments and away games, post-practice conversations and friendships made are the things the Dundee-Crown girls basketball team members will remember most about this season.

The Chargers’ (4-23) season came to an end Tuesday night at the hands of a talented Streamwood team, 47-23. Although the loss was tough on the Chargers, who were visibly upset, the players had only positive remarks about the

trying four-win season.

“Going to the tournaments was awesome,” said Charger Lauren Lococo, “because we got to spend a lot of time with the team and really bond and become good friends. That’s what we took away from that rather than dwelling on the losses.”

“It was a really good season,” Emilie Michalski said.

“It didn’t really show up in our record but we had a lot of fun and we can look ourselves in the mirror and know we played hard each night.

“We will all have a lot of memories. Good ones.”

Red Raiders closer to goal of winning regional crown • HUNTLEY GIRLS Continued from page C1 Sam Andrews had 13 points for the Red Raiders, Bethany Zornow finished with 11 and Haley Ream had seven.

Ali Andrews even played some point guard in the first half.

“She did a great job with it,” Raethz said. “Our players made some great in-game adjustments.”

DeKalb (23-5) coach Chris Davenport gave credit to the Red Raiders play, and said

that 46 points should be good enough to win with his group.

Unfortunately for the Barbs, players such as the Andrews sisters were just too much.

“It’s what we do. We grind it out and we play ‘D,’ ” Davenport said. “We didn’t play ‘D’ tonight.”

Tuesday’s victory against DeKalb was a big step for Huntley, but Raethz knows it’s only step one.

“It was one game,” he said.

“The larger goal and the task at hand is to come up with a regional championship.”

game-high 13 rebounds to go along with four points – all in the paint.

“We just couldn’t make any shots, layups or free throws.

Nothing,” D-C coach Michelle Russell said. “I thought we did a good job defensively, for the most part, but we just didn’t score tonight.”

The Chargers were 10 of 45 from the floor and made 2 of 15 free-throw attempts. The Sabres were a mark better, shooting 19 of 41 while connecting on 7 of 15 from the line.

D-C came into Tuesday’s game on a season-best twogame winning streak, highlighted by a big win over rival Jacobs on Monday to give them a regional berth.

“Yesterday was a big day for us,” Michalski said. “We

put it all on the floor yesterday and we came out flat and by the time we got it together it was too late.”

The Chargers found themselves in an 11-3 hole after the first-quarter but received a spark when sophomore Jesania Laboy entered the game early in the second.

Laboy grabbed two rebounds and made a key layup to draw the game to 13-7, but that would be as close as it got.

Laboy ended with a co-gamehigh 11 points.

“She’s been playing real well for us,” Russell said of Laboy. “The past couple weeks she’s been a real big spark for us, getting rebounds, put-backs and making strong moves.

She’s only a sophomore and she’s our future.”

Rio de Janeiro, it was cut from the games in 2020, which have yet to be awarded to a host city.

2004 Olympic Greco-Roman champion Khasan Baroev of Russia called the decision “mind-boggling.”

“I just can’t believe it. And what sport will then be added to the Olympic program? What sport is worthy of replacing ours?” Baroev told the ITARTass news agency. “Wrestling is popular in many countries – just see how the medals were distributed at the last Olympics.”

American Rulan Gardner, who upset three-time Russian Olympic champion Alexander Karelin at the Sydney Games in an epic gold-medal bout known as the “Miracle on the Mat,” was saddened by the decision to drop what he called “a beloved sport.”

“It’s the IOC trying to change the Olympics to make it more mainstream and more viewerfriendly instead of sticking to what they founded the Olympics on,” Gardner told The Associated Press in a telephone interview from Logan, Utah.

With 7.6 seconds remaining and down two points, Prairie Ridge’s Michael Bradshaw set his feet at the top of the 3-point arc and let the ball fly.

The shot went in and unleashed a ripple of emotion through the crowd, giving Prairie Ridge a 60-59 win over Crystal Lake South.

The final shot of the game, which missed, came from South’s Eric Schiller, who landed awkwardly on an opponent’s ankle and fell to the floor injured as time expired.

Bradshaw said the play was not designed for him specifically and that, in all actually, he didn’t even run the play drawn up by his coach.

The Gators’ (9-14, 4-7 FVC Valley) defensive pressure set the tone early resulting in a one-point halftime lead. The second half of the game was all about runs. The Gators jumped out to an eight-point lead early, with many of their points coming from the freethrow line.

With 23 seconds left in the game, South senior guard Nick Geske hit an athletic putback layup through three Wolves (8-15, 5-6 FVC Valley) defenders putting the Gators up 2. Bradshaw erased that deficit on his game-winning shot.

The Tigers have remaining division games with Grayslake North and Johnsburg, while Hampshire (8-2 FVC Fox) has games with Johnsburg, Woodstock and Woodstock North.

Bears release Knox Whips win regional opener over Spartans

By TOM MUSICK tmusick@shawmedia.com Not long after Johnny Knox was strapped to a backboard and carted off the field in 2011, then-coach Lovie Smith watched a replay of the hit that injured his young receiver.

“If you look at it,” Smith said, “it was a brutal hit that he took.”

On Tuesday, Knox’s tenure with the Bears came to a tough ending.

The Bears released Knox, Johnny Knox 26, almost 14 months after he broke a vertebra and required back surgery because of a violent collision with Seattle Seahawks defensive end Anthony Hargrove on Dec. 18, 2011, at Soldier Field.

Knox never returned to the field after the play, although he has said he is determined to make a comeback.

By releasing Knox, the Bears allowed him to pursue an opportunity with another team while creating an opening for general manager Phil

Emery to draft or sign a receiver.

Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery provide the Bears with big targets on the outside, while Earl Bennett has been an effective third-down target when he is healthy. Devin Hester and Eric Weems also remain under contract, although Hester’s future is murky after a subpar season and his end-of-year comments that football had stopped being fun.

The Bears’ top priority at receiver will be to add a fast, downfield threat.

Until he was injured, Knox provided the Bears with trackspeed ability that could stretch defenses. But Knox spent all of last season on the physically unable to perform list, and his extra-skinny frame after surgery cast doubt on his ability to return to the field.

In 45 games with the Bears, Knox caught 133 passes for 2,214 yards and 12 touchdowns.

He also averaged 27.4 yards a kickoff return with one touchdown on special teams, and he earned a Pro Bowl selection as a rookie kick returner in 2009.

BURLINGTON – The Hampshire girls basketball team found itself trailing by 10 points after the first quarter, but never panicked in Tuesday’s Class 3A Burlington Central Regional quarterfinal against Sycamore.

The Whip-Purs’ defense buckled down after the Spartans hit six of their first eight shots, and Hampshire rallied for a 51-43 win.

No. 5-seed Hampshire advances to play No. 1 Burlington Central in the semifinals at 6 p.m. today.

“I was impressed with our rebounding and how we battled back,” Whips coach Ed Haugens said. “If this was earlier in the season, I don’t know if we would’ve come back. It’s a huge positive.”

Still trailing by seven at halftime, the Whips’ comeback started on the defensive end. They held the Spartans to only one field

goal in the third quarter and took their first lead on a layup by Jennifer Dumoulin midway through the third quarter. That was part of a five-minute stretch that saw Hampshire score 16 consecutive points and turn a five-point deficit into an 11-point lead.

“I was impressed with our intensity after we got down by [10 points],” Haugens said. “I thought the girls did a great job, they shared the ball well.”

Emma Benoit led the Whips with 18 points.

CUBS SPRING TRAINING NOTES

Clay Guida dropped down to the UFC’s featherweight division with every intention of becoming one of the top 145-pound fighters in the world.

His next fight might go a long way in determining how he measures up.

Guida will fight former featherweight No. 1 contender Chad Mendes at UFC on Fox 7 on Clay Guida April 20 in San Jose, Calif. The bout was announced Monday after Mendes was pulled from the Feb. 23 UFC 157 card when officials couldn’t find an opponent after Mendes’ original opponent, Manny Gamburyan, was forced to withdraw because of an injury.

For Guida, who improved his professional record to 3011 with a split-decision victory over Hatsu Hioki at the United Center in January, getting a shot at Mendes represents a big step in his pursuit of the featherweight title.

A text message and phone call to Guida made Tuesday wasn’t immediately returned.

Mendes is coming off his back-to-back knockout victories over Cody McKenzie and Yaotzin Meza after he dropped a title decision to champion Jose Aldo in 2012. Mendes’ manager, Mike Roberts, told USA Today on Monday that the Guida fight could be the kind of fight needed to keep Mendes near the top of the division.

“Chad is the best – if not, the second best – guy in that weight division, period,” Roberts told USA Today. “Chad’s not going to turn anybody down. He believes he can beat anybody.”

Guida won his featherweight debut, snapping a two-fight losing streak.

Many considered his win over Hioki controversial considering the punches and kicks Hioki was able to land during the fight.

“We did enough,” Guida said in his post-fight interview.

“It definitely wasn’t my most exciting fight and I’m ugly as always, but we got our hand raised at the end of the night.”

WHITE SOX SPRING TRAINING

Baker eyeing Opening Day Danks eager to return The ASSOCIATED PRESS

By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO mmontemurro@shawmedia.com MESA, Ariz. – Cubs starting pitcher Scott Baker is optimistic that come Opening Day, he will be completely healthy and part of the rotation.

Manager Dale Sveum cautioned against expecting Baker, who is rehabbing from Tommy John surgery, to be ready to go April 1. The Cubs plan to be careful with Baker’s workload early in spring training.

“He’s going to be a little more babied,” Sveum said. “His effort level is going to pick up as spring goes along.”

Baker threw 40 pitches at about 70 percent during Tuesday’s bullpen session at Fitch Park. The Cubs will give Baker a day off here and there based on how he feels. For the most part, however, he will stay on the same track as other Cubs pitchers.

“We’re not going to put a timetable on it,” Sveum said of Baker’s return. “We’re going to ease him on into things and see how things work.”

Baker has a strict protocol to follow as he rehabs from Tommy John surgery, but so far the righthander has not experienced any setbacks. Sometimes that protocol is difficult to follow, particularly on days when Baker believes he can do more than allowed. But given the success of pitchers after undergoing the Tommy John surgery, Baker trusts the process.

Ideally, Baker said he will be ready for Opening Day. “This whole offseason, the entire rehab process, was to get ready to open the season,” Baker said. “As of right now, that’s the

The Cubs signed the right-hander, who missed all of last season after elbow surgery, in the offseason. plan. Obviously, I’m Cubs property and their best interest is my best interest. We’re all on the same page, it’s just a matter of allowing them to do what they think is best for me and I’m OK with that.”

Schierholtz eager to prove himself: President of baseball operations Theo Epstein and general manager Jed Hoyer repeatedly have stated they expect to utilize platoons in the outfield.

Despite having a couple offers from other teams, outfielder Nate Schierholtz opted to sign with the Cubs in the offseason. Playing in the playoffs is a priority for Schierholtz, and he sees an opportunity to do that with the Cubs, a team he said he believes is trending upward.

“My goal is to show everyone what I can do and stay healthy,” Schierholtz said. “I know that if I

have an opportunity to play a little bit more, I can be productive. In the past, I feel like I haven’t quite gotten the opportunity to show that and I’ve gotten hurt a few times.”

Jackson blending in: Playing on his eighth team in 11 years has made pitcher Edwin Jackson adept at getting to know new teammates.

The transition has been just as seamless with the Cubs. Jackson has earned the label of being the Cubs’ biggest free-agent signing since Epstein and Hoyer joined the organization. But he shook off the notion that he has additional pressure as a marquee signing.

“I don’t feel like I have to go out and try to overdo it,” Jackson said. “They brought me here for a reason. As far as I’m concerned, everyone is working on bettering themselves and that’s all I plan on doing.”

GLENDALE, Ariz. – Having a healthy John Danks in the rotation means everything to the White Sox. The Sox were in first place in the AL Central last season for 117 days before fading in the last two weeks. A fully healthy rotation could have helped them go the distance.

Danks made only nine starts last season before undergoing season-ending surgery on his left shoulder Aug. 6. It was a major setback for the left-hander, who received a five-year, $65 million contract extension last offseason. He can’t wait to get going this year.

“I anticipate being ready,” Danks said Tuesday, the first official spring training day for pitchers and catchers. “Obviously, there is a lot of time between now and then. I feel good about things. We’ll see how it goes.”

The Opening Day starter will be lefthander Chris Sale or right-hander Jake Peavy, two All-Stars in 2012. If Danks is ready, he could be next followed by Gavin Floyd and Jose Quintana.

It’s a rotation general manager Rick Hahn said is good enough to keep the Sox in contention, even though his only significant offseason additions were infielder Jeff Keppinger and reliever Matt Lindstrom while the Tigers, Royals and Indians all look better on paper in the AL Central.

Hahn noted that Kansas City and Cleveland had room to improve.

“The division is going to be tough,” Hahn said. “I think obviously Cleveland has improved over the 68-win team they were last year. And Kansas City has improved over the 72-win team they were last year, as well. I think it’s going to be tough for any one team to run away with it in the Central this year. I think it’s going to be a fun summer.”

The 27-year-old Danks won 12, 13 and 15 games in the 2008 to 2010 seasons before going 8-12 in 2011 when a right oblique strain

AP file photo

White Sox pitcher John Danks delivers to an Indians batter May 8, 2012, in Cleveland.

Danks made only nine starts last season before undergoing season-ending surgery on his left shoulder Aug. 6. prevented him from topping 195 innings for the first time since 2007. He seems cautiously optimistic about having a healthy 2013.

“I [am] able to throw and able to do what they have asked me so far,” he said.

“I’m where they told me to be at this point, so hopefully that’s good enough.”

Danks began throwing breaking pitches in the past few weeks with no issues.

He threw a bullpen session Monday and will make his first “official” side session of camp Thursday.

“I got through everything and was able to throw everything they wanted me to,” Danks said.

Hahn’s major concern with Danks is reeling him in. There’s no need to rush him, especially with the extended spring training because of the World Baseball Classic.

“The biggest change with him is slowing him down, and when you have a guy coming back from injury, if you are going to have some sort of hurdle or obstacle, that’s a good one to have,” Hahn said. “It’s going to be on Coop (pitching coach Don Cooper) and (manager) Robin (Ventura) as we go forward to sort of make sure he’s not biting off more than he can chew. He feels strong, he looks great, he’s eager.”

State legislator proposes law to protect from head injuries

safety Eddie Williams, 20, confessed to robbing a student who was punched in the head and face and kicked in the ribs and back early Monday morning, according to court documents. Williams said D.J. Pettway, 20, a defensive lineman, and Hayes waited in a nearby vehicle about an hour later while he knocked out and robbed another student.

Williams and Hayes both admitted to their involvement, according to the documents.

High school football coaches contend they already have received the message loud and clear when it comes to player safety.

A state legislator says it should become law to make sure that is the case.

State Rep. Carol Sente, D-Lincolnshire, is introducing a bill designed to protect high school football players from head and brain trauma by limiting tackling to one practice per week.

According to an article on CBS Chicago’s website, Sente is open to feedback when it comes to how the bill ultimately takes shape on matters ranging from how equipment such as dummies and sleds factor in, the way tackling would be policed during the offseason and other specifics that will need to be ironed out. She reportedly has scheduled a town hall meeting about her proposal for Feb. 25 at Vernon Hills High School.

PHILADELPHIA – A member of the University of Pennsylvania’s 1979 Final Four team was fatally stabbed by his wife, who told police she had caught him looking at child pornography, according to court documents.

Matthew White was found stabbed in the neck around 12:45 p.m. Monday in bed at his home, police said, and was pronounced dead a short time later. An officer responding to the home for a report of a stabbing found White’s wife, Maria Rey Garcia-Pellon, as she pulled into the driveway, authorities said. As she was being taken into custody, according to a police affidavit, she said, “I caught him looking at pornography, young girls. I love kids. I had to do it.”

DUCKS 3, BLACKHAWKS 2 (SO)

Ducks edge Blackhawks

By JAY COHEN

Next

The Associated Press CHICAGO – Viktor Fasth made two stops in the shootout to remain perfect in six starts and the Anaheim Ducks beat the Blackhawks 3-2 on Tuesday night in a matchup of the top two teams in the Western Conference.

After Jonathan Toews converted the first shootout attempt for the Hawks, Fasth stopped Patrick Kane’s backhander and denied Brandon Saad on the right side of the goal to become the first goalie to win his first six NHL starts since Dan Ellis with Dallas and Nashville from Feb. 18, 2004, to Nov. 29, 2007.

Nick Bonino and Corey Perry scored in the tiebreaker for Anaheim, which improved to 3-1 on its season-high, sixgame road trip. Ryan Getzlaf and Andrew Cogliano scored in regulation.

Brandon Saad and Nick Leddy had the goals for the Hawks,

vs. San Jose, 7:30 p.m. Friday, CSN, AM-720

which remained the only NHL team without a regulation loss.

Corey Crawford made 29 saves in the first home game for the Blackhawks in two weeks.

The Hawks were in front 2-1 before Cogliano sent a deflected shot into the left side of the net with 2:40 left in the third after he had his helmet knocked off.

It was the second goal in the last two games for Cogliano, and his second on the year.

The Blackhawks were on the power play for almost four minutes in overtime but couldn’t get the winning goal.

Fasth made a nice stop on Patrick Sharp’s slap shot and a glove save on Marian Hossa to send it to the shootout.

Getzlaf put the Ducks in front with a power-play goal in

NEW at

the second, but the momentum shifted after Hawks forward Bryan Bickell leveled Getzlaf midway through the period.

Brad Staubitz immediately jumped on Bickell to defend his teammate.

He got a few punches in before Bickell took him to the ice, and the Blackhawks quickly jumped on Fasth for a pair of goals in their first home game since a 2-1 victory over Detroit on Jan. 27.

With Staubitz in the box serving an instigating penalty, Leddy sent a slap shot off the right post and into the goal for his second of the season at 10:17.

Saad then came down and sent a leaping wrister toward Fasth as he was going to the ice.

The puck went off Fasth’s left shoulder and started trickling down his back. Luca Sbisa went to the ice to try to stop it from crossing the line as players from both teams flocked into the goalmouth.

Blackhawks are hot and they’re for real • MUSICK Continued from page C1 A sellout crowd of 21,188 fans stood and screamed at the top of their hockey-loving lungs while Jim Cornelison belted the anthem in his booming tenor.

If you have stood in the United Center for the anthem before a Hawks game, then you know how loud it gets.

The noise blasts through your ears and climbs up your nostrils and invades your chest.

The only thing louder – maybe – would be a B-1 bomber piloted by Metallica.

SMELL Go ahead. Take a whiff.

Yep, that’s real.

The Hawks’ locker room smells like a seventh-grader’s gym locker times 20. After players spend almost three

hours sweating into gloves, shoulder pads, shorts, shin guards and skates, they remove them and hang them in their lockers to unlock the stench.

By the way, if I offended any hygienic seventh graders, I apologize. I can speak only from my experience, when I took my gym shirt home to wash about once every two weeks. Gross.

Taste If I had attended the game as a fan, this would have been easy. I would have bellied up to one of the stadium’s 46 concessions stands for a jumbo hot dog and a pretzel and steak fries and popcorn and another pretzel and a beer. Hmm, better make it a light beer. I’m trying to watch my calories.

Yet drinking in the press box is against the rules. I know that this will surprise

some of you who read my work. Instead, I drank a bottle of water, which is basically unfrozen ice, which brings us back to hockey, which brings us back to the Hawks, who remain real.

TOUCH Unless you are some exotic species of bird with a body temperature of about 105 degrees, you will feel cold at a Hawks game.

I am not an exotic bird. As players skated on the ice hundreds of feet below, my hands felt cold. My toes felt cold. I touched the cover of my notebook, and that felt cold, too.

But the Hawks are hot. And they are for real.

The classic French dish Beef Bourguignon will make your sweetheart melt this Valentine’s Day.

Section D February 13, 2013 Northwest Herald

PlanitNorthwest.com

Looking good,

babycakes L

ove is always sweeter when expressed with chocolate. Especially on Valentine’s Day. Yes, chocolate. And the more ooeygooey deeply chocolaty, the better.

Still, there’s no sense overdoing it.

I’ve always believed when it comes to dessert, a little bit can go a long way. That’s why this chocolate dream of a recipe takes the form of small-ish individual cakes rather than a single, family-sized gut-buster.

It’s also why I’ve replaced the butter usually found in chocolate cakes with non-fat Greek yogurt.

And trust me, not only won’t you miss the butter, but you won’t taste the yogurt. It’s in the mix

strictly as a lower-fat way of adding body to the finished product.

What you will taste is chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate, specifically dark chocolate. It’s built into the cake batter, EVERYDAY of course, but it also reapDINNERS pears as a melted surprise Sara in the center of each cake.

Moulton Once you’re gazing with admiration at the finished product, don’t be surprised if you end up giving this little Valentine’s Day gift to yourself.

Small dessert is a healthier way to satisfy your Valentine’s sweet tooth

• Sara Moulton was executive chef at Gourmet magazine for nearly 25 years, and spent a decade hosting several Food Network shows. She has written three cookbooks, including “Everyday Family Dinners.”

Warm Double Chocolate Cakes With Raspberry Sauce Start to finish: 3 hours 20 minutes (30 minutes active) Servings: 8 For the chocolate cakes: 1/4 cup sugar, plus 8 teaspoons for coating the ramekins 4 1/2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, divided 2 large eggs, whites and yolks separated and brought to room temperature 1/3 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt For the sauce: 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries (if frozen, thaw, drain and retain the liquid) 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar Coat eight 1/3- or 1/4-cup ramekins with cooking spray.

Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of sugar into each, swirling it around to coat the bottom and sides, then dumping out any excess.

Finely chop 2 1/2 ounces of the chocolate. Cut the remaining 2 ounces into 16 pieces, roughly the same size, then set those aside.

Bring a small saucepan of water to a bare simmer. Set a medium stainless steel bowl over it and add the 2 1/2 ounces of finely chopped chocolate to that. Heat, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted.

While the chocolate is melting, in another medium bowl use an electric mixer to beat the egg yolks with 1 tablespoon of the sugar until they are thick and lemon colored, about 4 minutes. Set the bowl aside and clean the beaters well.

In a third medium bowl, use the electric mixer to beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar, a little at a time, and continue beating until the whites hold stiff peaks. Set aside.

Remove the melted chocolate from the heat. Add the yogurt and stir well. Add the egg yolk mixture and stir well. Add one third of the egg whites to the chocolate mixture, stirring well, then gently fold in the remaining egg whites until they are just combined with the chocolate mixture. Divide the batter among the prepared ramekins. Cover and chill for 1 hour.

While the cakes are chilling, heat the oven to 325 degrees F and prepare the sauce.

In a blender, puree the raspberries with the sugar. Pour the mixture through a mesh strainer, using a silicone spatula to press the pulp. Discard the pulp and seeds. Thin the sauce with water or with the reserved raspberry liquid (if using frozen berries) until the sauce has a nice pouring consistency.

Remove the ramekins from the fridge, tuck 2 pieces of the cut chocolate into the center of each and bake in the middle of the oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until just springy when touched. Let cool for 5 minutes, then unmold or serve in the ramekins. Serve drizzled with the raspberry sauce.

Whip up a romantic breakfast in bed Cheesy egg strata with sausage can be altered to include your Valentine’s favorite foods

By ELIZABETH KARMEL The Associated Press Casseroles are a funny thing. You aren’t likely to see them lauded as the hot new food trend any time soon.

Yet make a great one, and suddenly folks clamor for the recipe.

My favorite casserole is one typically served for breakfast or brunch. It’s called an egg strata, and I love it because it’s easy to prep ahead of time, and bakes up light and fluffy, and yet is substantial and satisfying – a perfect choice for a romantic breakfast in bed come Valentine’s Day. The other thing that I love about a strata is that you can tailor it to include your favorite flavors, as well as make it sweet or savory.

Strata is the plural of stratum, which literally means layers, and you can layer all your favorite ingredients in with the bread and egg custard.

I grew up with the classic cheddar cheese, breakfast sausage egg strata. When I moved to Chicago, I began to experiment with different fillings. I fell in love with this city’s Greek omelet, which is a signature of its ubiquitous diners. I adapted those flavors to create a spinach, feta, onion and tomato strata.

Another favorite is wild mushrooms, leeks and brie cheese.

When I am cooking brunch for a lot of people, I like to make two strata – one sweet, another savory. An apple-cream cheese stuffed “French toast” strata is my favorite sweet version, but you could add any kind of fruit. If you make a sweet strata for Valentine’s Day, try stuffing it with strawberries and chocolate for a new twist on everyone’s beloved chocolate-covered strawberries. Just leave out the savory spices and add a touch of sugar and lemon zest to make the stuffed French toast of your dreams.

There are simpler strata recipes available, but I still love the original I grew up with. It uses more eggs and a mixture of milk and halfand-half for a richer, more quiche-like custard. I don’t use as much bread as many recipes because I like it to literally melt into the other ingredients. This produces a lighter, puffier strata. I do

add a bit more bread to my sweet French toast version because I want a breadier result for that version.

Letting the strata rest before baking allows the bread to become saturated by the egg mixture, as well as the other flavors. I like to let it rest overnight. Not only does this produce the creamiest result, it also saves me any trouble in the morning. I just uncover it and pop it in the oven. But if you prefer to make it the day of, plan to let it rest for at least an hour in the refrigerator.

Valentine’s Day Breakfast-In-Bed Egg Strata Start to finish: 1 hour 15 minutes (15 minutes active), plus resting time Servings: 4 6 eggs 3/4 cup milk 3/4 cup half-and-half 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon dry mustard Dash nutmeg 1/8 teaspoon white pepper 3 slices white sandwich bread, cubed 1 pound sage breakfast sausage, cooked, drained and crumbled 1 cup grated cheddar cheese 1/4 cup finely chopped scallions Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, half-andhalf, salt, mustard, nutmeg and white pepper.

In the prepared baking dish, layer half each of the bread, sausage, cheese and scallions, then repeat using the remaining ingredients to create a second layer of each. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layers, gently pressing with a fork to make sure all of the ingredients are submerged.

Cover the baking dish with foil, crimping the edges tight. Refrigerate for at least an hour, or up to overnight (longer is better).

When ready to cook, heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Uncover and bake the strata for 1 hour, or until puffy and a knife inserted at the center comes out clean.

This dish is warm and comforting, and rich with flavors that say “you’re special.”

It cooks up in a gratin dish, so you can assemble it ahead of time, then when you’re ready to eat, just pop it in the oven. While the gratin bakes, assemble the salad and serve everything together with a crusty baguette. Simple, special and perfect for an evening in.

Crab And Hearts Of Palm Gratin With Arugula And Cherry Salad Start to finish: 45 minutes Servings: 2 For the gratin: 14-ounce can artichoke hearts, drained 14-ounce can hearts of palm, drained 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme Zest of 1 lemon 1/2 cup heavy cream 1/2 cup grated fontina cheese 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper 12 ounces lump crab meat 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs 1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika

Pinch of salt 1 tablespoon butter, melted For the salad: 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon maple syrup 2 cups baby arugula 1/4 cup fresh or dried cherries 2 tablespoons toasted almonds (optional) Sea salt and ground black pepper Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place 2 shallow individual-sized casserole or gratin dishes on a baking sheet.

Chop the artichoke hearts and hearts of palm into 1/2-inch pieces.

In a medium bowl, gently stir together the artichokes and hearts of palm with the thyme, lemon zest,

cream, fontina, white pepper and crab. Spoon the mixture into the gratin dishes.

In a small bowl, stir together the breadcrumbs, paprika, salt and melted butter. Sprinkle over the gratins.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until bubbling and golden.

While the gratins bake, make the salad. In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, mustard and maple syrup. Add the arugula, cherries and almonds and gently toss to coat. Serve topped with sea salt and black pepper.

Looking for an easy way to impress this Valentine’s Day? Consider a simple – but still sensational – chocolate bark.

As treats go, it doesn’t get much easier than this. And the best part is there are infinite ways to personalize the bark.

You know, so you can show you really do listen to your significant other and care enough to cater to his or her tastes.

You start with a pound of chocolate. It can be white, milk or dark. Doesn’t matter. Then you add your toppings, things like nuts, coconut, dried fruit, or more creative options such as pumpkin seeds and caramel popcorn. Whatever your topping choices, look for contrasts – something crunchy, something tangy, something salty.

We’ve created several combinations that are rich in contrast and beautiful in appearance, but feel free to play with the toppings or to switch out the chocolate for milk or white. Of course,

Valentine’s Day Bark AP photo

because it is the star of the show, be sure to use a good quality chocolate.

Valentine’s Day Bark Start to finish: 20 minutes Servings: 12 1 pound dark, milk or white chocolate Start by lining a rimmed baking sheet with waxed paper. Have all your bark toppings ready before melting the chocolate.

If your chocolate is in bars or large, thick pieces, use a knife to carefully chop it up into small

bits. Transfer the chocolate to a large glass measuring cup or bowl, then heat in the microwave on medium, stopping to stir every 20 to 30 seconds, until completely melted.

Pour the chocolate onto the prepared pan, then tap the pan on the counter to level the melted chocolate.

Immediately sprinkle your choice of toppings over the surface of the chocolate. Allow to cool completely and set up, then break into pieces.

Topping Suggestions • Large-flake coconut, toasted sliced almonds, cocoa nibs • Chopped dried cherries, shelled pistachios, chopped chocolate wafer cookies, large flake sea salt • Honey roasted peanuts, chopped extra-crispy cooked bacon, ground black pepper • Crushed toffee pieces, toasted pumpkin seeds, chopped dried apricots • Chopped candied ginger, chopped macadamia nuts, toasted coconut • Broken salted pretzel sticks, cut up mini marshmallows, caramel popcorn

Sister in open marriage takes sharing too far Dear Abby: My daughters are attractive young women, both doing well in their professional careers. “Melanie,” who is 27, is married to “Sam,” an extremely attractive and successful man.

My 30-year-old daughter, “Alicia,” has been divorced for a year. Her marriage failed two years ago because she and her husband had an appetite for sex outside their marriage.

While I was disturbed about that, I was horrified to learn Melanie allows her sister to occasionally have sex with Sam. Melanie’s argument is Sam is less likely to cheat given this situation. When I asked her and Sam about it, he said it wasn’t his idea. My current husband says any man who would refuse this “set-up” would be nuts. Alicia claims she “doesn’t have time” to date right now, and after she finishes her MBA, she’ll seek out a more normal relationship.

I am distraught about this mess. Melanie says she wants to start a family soon.

She says she loves Sam, who can “handle everything,” and she enjoys seeing “everyone happy.” She says Alicia won’t

Read all about it ...

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips sleep around now and, maybe, one day she’ll marry a handsome man like Sam who will “return the favor.”

I can’t believe these girls are my daughters. Should I continue to protest or let it go?

Is this relaxed attitude about sex prevalent in young people today? I cannot understand Melanie’s lack of desire to defend her turf. – Heartbroken

Mom In Florida Dear Mom: Your daughters appear to be into the concept of open marriage. Clearly, they do not view marriage and relationships the same way you do.

Melanie is naíve to think encouraging Sam to have a sexual relationship with her sister will discourage him from seeking other partners.

Far from it. And as for her wanting to start a family, has she considered what will happen if her husband impregnates Alicia at the same time – or first?

But back to your question: Are you right to protest? You

certainly are. That’s what mothers are for – to inject a dose of sanity when everyone around her is losing theirs.

Dear Abby: The other day at work, my girlfriend overheard a group of people in the break room talking about what they’d do first if they won the lottery. Without exception, everyone in that room said the first thing they would do is get a divorce. My girlfriend was stunned.

Have you ever done an informal reader survey on this subject? Is the state of marriage in America really that bad? I’m also curious if answers would differ along gender lines. Let me know what you think, and thanks.

– Happily Single But Still A Believer In Marriage Dear Happily Single: No, I have not done a reader survey on this subject. But I’m glad you asked, because I think what your girlfriend heard is a sad commentary on the state of the marriages of her co-workers. Readers, if you’d care to chime in on this, I’m sure it would be enlightening.

‘Sundowning’ not really understood Dear Dr. K: My wife is in her late 70s. Lately she appears very tired and agitated in the evenings. I talked to a doctor friend who said she might be “sundowning.”

What is sundowning, and what can we do about it?

Dear Reader: Some older people have trouble concentrating, grow agitated or even confused, and become especially fatigued at the end of the day. This phenomenon is known as “sundowning” because its effects tend to coincide with sunset – usually in the late afternoon into the evening, then settling down late at night.

Sundowning behavior commonly happens in people with Alzheimer’s disease, but it also can happen in older people without Alzheimer’s disease or other types of dementia.

Sundowning is more likely to occur in an unfamiliar environment in a dark place. I had a patient who never experienced sundowning at home, but sometimes when she and her husband traveled, it would happen in a hotel room at night. Sundowning occurs quite often in hospitalized patients. It can lead to problems such as falls and fractured bones as people get out of bed in their confusion and trip over something.

Sundowning isn’t an ill-

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff ness; it’s a temporary condition, and we don’t entirely understand what causes it.

One explanation is that by late afternoon, some older people have difficulty coping with the accumulation of stresses that build over the course of the day.

Here are some ways you and your wife can alleviate the effects of sundowning: • Keep a daily log and jot down events that seem to trigger symptoms. For instance, too much noise or the act of preparing dinner could be a trigger. Once you and your wife recognize these triggers, you can work on ways to avoid them.

• Stick to a regular schedule. Take walks or exercise at the same time each day, preferably early in the day.

Eat an early dinner and go to sleep at the same time each night.

• Schedule appointments, trips and activities in the morning. Limit obligations in the late afternoon hours.

• Take a late afternoon rest. Just putting her feet up and closing her eyes for a short respite can help preserve your wife’s energy and prevent end-of-day fatigue.

• Prevent overstimulation by reducing noise from televisions or stereos.

• Reduce food and beverages that contain caffeine, or restrict them to early morning hours. Caffeine can stay in your system for as long as 16 hours and interrupt your sleep. Poor quality sleep also may contribute to sundowning.

• When she begins to feel symptoms, she should either rest or do something familiar that relaxes her, such as knitting or reading the newspaper.

If the problem is ongoing, have your doctor review the medications she is taking to be sure that they’re not causing the problem.

Sundowning is more common in older people than you might think. Fortunately, it’s not usually a sign of a serious underlying problem. But it can lead to problems, such as falls and fractures, so try some of the things that you and she can do yourselves. If they don’t help, ask her doctor if testing of her intellectual function might be required.

But I’ll bet that won’t prove necessary.

Helping 126 Homeowners by “Giving Away” *$1,829 Furnaces for $829 with Off-Season Central Air...

(This is great financial news if your furnace is over 12 years old) Dear Neighbor: This is great news for your wallet if your furnace is over 12 years old. Because, yes, it’s absolutely true... you can actually replace your old (and probably very inefficient) gas furnace and air conditioner as a package for $1,000 less than you would have to pay at any other time.

Please allow me to explain...

Every year, the months of January, February, and March can “destroy” my business. I end up losing a ton of money during these “business destroyer” months and it can take me the remaining nine months to make up for them. I’m looking for the same thing to happen this year.

That is why...

Cruz expecting 2nd child THINGS

Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem are expecting their second child.

Cruz publicist Javier Giner said Tuesday the Spanish actress is pregnant. He declined to provide any further details, including when the baby is due.

The 38-year-old Cruz and 43-yearold Bardem had their first child, a boy called Leo, in January 2011.

The couple became romantically involved after appearing together in Woody Allen’s 2008 film “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” and later married.

Netflix orders kids series

Grammys crasher to Adele: Help!

The man who was arrested after trying to upstage Adele at Sunday’s Grammy Awards has a new message for the singer: “help me.”

Vitalii Sediuk says his appearance onstage at the Grammys was a spontaneous event and that he is only now realizing that it might have legal consequences for him. The Ukrainian journalist, who did not have a ticket to the awards show, spent several hours in police custody before being released with a trespassing citation and a March 4 court date.

Sediuk briefly took the microphone Sunday night before Adele accepted her award. He only got a few words out before Jennifer Lopez shooed him away.

“It was spontaneous,” Sediuk said in a telephone interview Tuesday.

“It was not planned of course.”

He said he realizes now he may be banned from covering award shows, which would be problematic for a reporter who’s already got a reputation for awkward celebrity encounters. Last year, Will Smith slapped Sediuk, 24, after he tried to kiss him on a red carpet, and he drew Madonna’s ire a year earlier by presenting her a bouquet of flowers she hated.

He said he hopes Adele, who called Lopez her “good luck charm” at Sunday’s show, will help him out of his latest mess.

“Oh Adele. Help me not to go to jail,” Sediuk said.

Netflix is buffing up its credentials as a popular way for parents to keep their kids entertained.

The film, starring Ryan Reynolds, Paul Giamatti, Michael Pena and others, opens in theaters July 19. The

Royal officials in Britain have expressed disappointment that paparazzi shots of Prince William and his wife on a beach holiday in the Caribbean may be published by an Italian magazine.

St. James’s Palace said Tuesday publishing the photos would be a “clear breach of the couple’s right to privacy.”

The photos reportedly show the pregnant Duchess of Cambridge – the former Kate Middleton – wearing a bikini and strolling on a beach with William on the island of Mustique.

The Italian gossip magazine Chi was reportedly planning to publish the pictures.

Last year, William and Kate went to court over a French gossip magazine’s publication of topless photos of the duchess while the couple was on holiday.

Doug Whitley, president and CEO of the Illinois Chamber of Commerce, speaks at Tuesday’s Algonquin/Lake in the Hills Chamber of Commerce Business Over Breakfast meeting at Montarra Grill in Algonquin.

‘Up in arms’ Chamber CEO says minimum wage hike bad for business

By CHRIS CASHMAN ccashman@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Doug Whitley, president and CEO of the Illinois Chamber of Commerce, criticized Gov. Pat Quinn’s call for an increase in the minimum wage.

“It may sound good, but it’s not good economics and it’s not good for our state,” Whitley said.

Whitley spoke to a group of about 40 Tuesday at the Algonquin/Lake in the Hills Chamber of Commerce Business Over Breakfast at the Montarra Grill in Algonquin.

In his State of the State address to lawmakers last week, Gov. Pat Quinn called for a 20 percent increase in the Illinois minimum wage.

Although the state already has one of the highest rates in the nation, Quinn argued for another boost from $8.25 to $10 an hour.

“Nobody in Illinois should work 40 hours a week and live in poverty,” Quinn said during his speech. “That’s a principle as old as the Bible.”

Whitley called the push to increase the minimum wage “pure politics.”

“We are all up in arms about it because we know when you raise the minimum wage it ripples through the whole wage structure that you’ve got in your office,” Whitley said. “So there is a high cost to every employer, whether or not you currently have em-

ployees affected by minimum wage.

“The ripple through the economy is far greater than the political attractiveness of championing a minimum wage increase,” Whitley said.

“One of our biggest objectives is to get public officials to walk in the shoes of a business owner,” Whitley said. Elected officials “can change the cost of your doing business overnight by passing that legislation.

“Public officials oftentimes are catering to popularity contests, but don’t think about what are the implications for employers.”

Whitley added, “I think there’s a very good chance the minimum wage increase will pass.” He urged the business community to become engaged with legislators so its voice is heard in Springfield.

Quinn is seeking to revive the minimum wage proposal that was floated last year but didn’t make it out of committee. Still, lawmakers said that such a proposal would need cooperation from the business community to get any traction.

Illinois last saw a minimum wage increase in 2010 when it jumped to $8.25 through a four-step increase adopted under imprisoned former Gov. Rod Blagojevich in 2006. The Democrat raised the minimum wage twice during his time in office, making it a centerpiece of his agenda. The federal rate has been $7.25 an hour since

2007.

Washington and Oregon are the only states with a higher rate than Illinois, according to statistics from the U.S. Department of Labor.

In his speech Tuesday, Whitley also criticized the Legislature for failing to address the state’s $100 billion pension deficit, “We don’t have the political will to deal with it, and the answer’s really simple. Because literally hundreds of thousands of employees, retirees and their families are going to be hurt by it,” Whitley said. “No one wants to say no. No one wants to admit to thousands of their constituents – people that vote for them, give campaign contributions to them – that things are going to have to change.

“If we don’t fix it all those retirees and all those wannabe retirees, those funds are not going to be there for them,” Whitley said.

“If we don’t fix it, we’re not going to give business owners the confidence to invest in Illinois,” he added.

“One of the challenges we have is growing jobs at a fast enough pace that we have literally hundreds of thousands of new people paying taxes in our state...making Illinois is a destination state for job growth,” Whitley said.

Right at Home focuses on everyday food choices NORTHWEST HERALD ALGONQUIN – “We all owe it to ourselves at any age to fuel our minds and bodies with the best nutrition possible,” said Jeanette Palmer, president of Right at Home in Algonquin.

“In our work with seniors, we find that many elderly rely on microwavable, convenience foods that often contain extra fats, sugar and salt that complicate existing health conditions.

Eating right doesn’t need to be complicated or expensive. Sometimes only a few adjustments are needed.”

“Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day” is the theme of this year’s National Nutrition Month celebrated in March across America from home kitchens and school cafeterias to office building cafés and fine-dining restaurants. Sponsored annually by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, National Nutrition Month is an educational and information campaign that stresses the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound physical exercise habits. This year’s “Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day” theme encourages the personal food preferences and healthy eating styles of people with diverse lifestyle, cultural and ethnic traditions.

Formerly the American Dietetic Association,

the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is the world’s largest organization of food and nutrition professionals dedicated to helping people enjoy healthy lives through their daily diets. The group’s website, www.eatright.org, offers facts and tips about childhood obesity, healthy weight loss, nutrition for life, disease management and prevention, food safety, holiday nutrition, and a variety of other food and nutrition topics.

The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics recommends shifts in dietary nutrients as we grow older, including: • Calcium and vitamin D to help maintain strong bone health. Older adults should eat three servings of vitamin D-fortified low-fat or free-free milk or yogurt daily. Other sources of calcium-rich foods include dark green leafy vegetables, canned fish and fortified cereals and fruit juices.

• Vitamin B12 is often low in people older than 50. Lean meat, fortified cereals and some fish and seafood are excellent sources of vitamin B12.

• Potassium is found in fruits, vegetables, and milk and yogurt products. To lower high blood pressure, seniors should increase potassium in their diets while reducing sodium or salt intake.

• Fiber found in whole-grain breads and cereals, beans, peas, fruits and vegetables is a natu-

ral way to stay regular, prevent Type 2 diabetes, control weight and lower one’s risk for heart disease.

• Healthier fats found in olive oil and peanut oil, for example, are considered polyunsaturated or monounsaturated vs. saturated and trans fats found in many commercially processed and baked foods.

“Our caregivers assist seniors and disabled adults every day with menu planning, grocery shopping and preparing nutritious meals and find that some people need to follow specific dietary restrictions but just feel a bit lost,” Palmer said. “Or sometimes all they need is someone to sit down with them and take the loneliness out of eating alone. National Nutrition Month is a helpful reminder that informed everyday food choices are not just essential to our physical health but to our emotional and social health, as well.”

Investors can benefit from yoga themes

Airlines lose fewer bags, get to the gate on time

It’s probably not on your calendar, but World Yoga Day takes place on Feb. 24. As more people have discovered its healthful benefits, yoga has grown in popularity. But whether or not you practice yoga, you can apply its lessons to other areas of your life – such as investing.

Specifically, consider the following yoga-related themes and how they might translate into investment habits that may be beneficial: • Balance. If you observe advanced yoga practitioners, you will be amazed at the balance they exhibit during certain positions. But for serious yoga students, the idea of “balance” goes beyond physical movements and extends to a concept of life that emphasizes, among other things, an avoidance of extremes. As an investor, you too need to avoid extremes, such as investing too aggressively, too conservatively or too sporadically. By building a balanced portfolio, and by investing reg-

The Associated Press NEW YORK – U.S. airlines were less likely in 2012 to lose your suitcase than at any other point in the last two decades, the government announced Tuesday.

There were only 3.09 reports of lost, delayed or damaged baggage for every 1,000 passengers, the lowest annual rate since the Department of Transportation started tracking incidents in 1988.

Airlines also improved their performance in getting planes to gates on time. Last year, 81.85 percent of flights arrived within 15 minutes of their scheduled time. That is the third highest rate since 1988. The record was set in 2002 at 82.14 percent.

Airlines benefited from good weather in the first half of the year and fewer planes in the sky because of the weak economy. And fewer passengers are checking bags because of fees.

The worst year for baggage handling was 1989, when nearly eight suitcases per 1,000 passengers were reported late, lost or damaged.

Baggage handling is directly tied to airline’s ontime performance. When flights are late, bags often miss their connection.

Airlines have been working hard to improve their performance. They are flying newer planes with fewer maintenance problems. New tools track the boarding of passengers and loading of baggage onto individual flights. If either falls behind schedule, extra workers are deployed to ensure an ontime departure.

The airlines are also being more realistic about their schedules. Flight times have been extended on some trips to account for air traffic delays.

There are still problems, however. About one out of every six flights is late – and that’s after airlines have adjusted schedules to account for congestion.

FINANCE Steve Middaugh ularly, you can help improve your chances of making progress toward your financial goals.

• Flexibility. Among its many benefits, yoga helps people increase their flexibility – and greater flexibility results in fewer injuries and an increased capacity to enjoy many physical activities. As an investor, you need to be flexible enough to adjust your portfolio as needed while still following a long-term strategy that’s appropriate for your individual goals, risk tolerance and time horizon.

• Relaxation. For yoga students, proper relaxation is essential to achieving mental equanimity, emotional balance and inner strength. But relaxation doesn’t always come easily – even experienced yoga practitioners need to work at it. As an investor, you

also may need to train yourself to relax because, given the ups and downs of the market, it’s not hard to become overwrought and make ill-advised decisions based on short-term events.

Staying calm and maintaining a longterm view of things may help you make better investment decisions.

• Positive thinking. Our own thoughts and actions are largely responsible for creating our happiness and success, according to yoga teachings. And positive thinking can play a key role in investing, too. For example, if you were to constantly look at negative headlines, you might conclude that it is pointless to invest for the future because external events – economic instability abroad, political squabbles at home, natural disasters and so on – will just disrupt your plans. Consequently, you might decide not to invest, or invest in such a way that can make progress toward your financial goals difficult. But if you maintain a positive attitude, you

company is “seriously” looking at ways to hand out more cash to shareholders.

Investors appeared to be listening for something more substantive out of Cook on the cash issue. Apple’s stock fell $9.80, or 2 percent, to $470.13 in midday trading after his speech at a Goldman Sachs investor conference in San Francisco.

The stock market has hammered Apple’s stock since the September launch of the iPhone 5. The company’s growth, which has been rapid for nearly a decade, is slowing drastically in the absence of a new groundbreaking product. Wall Street is clamoring for Apple to share more of its cash, which amounted to $137 billion at the end of last year and is still growing fast because of the company’s massive profits.

Companies normally don’t sit on that much cash, as it’s not very productive. They prefer to invest it in their business or give it to shareholders. Einhorn said Apple’s cash hoard is a symptom of a defensive, “Depression-era mentality.”

Cook rebuted that asser-

AP Technology Writer Apple CEO Tim Cook is calling a shareholder lawsuit against the company a “silly sideshow,” even as he said he is open to looking at the shareholder’s proposals for sharing more cash with investors.

Investor David Einhorn sued Apple Inc. last week, saying a proposal slated for a vote at the company’s annual meeting in two weeks would make it more difficult to enact his plan to reward shareholders by distributing a new class of shares.

Cook said Apple’s proposal puts more power in the hands of shareholders, making it difficult to understand why a shareholder would fight it. Calling the fight a waste of time, Cook said Apple won’t waste money by mailing shareholders to persuade them to vote for the proposal.

“My preference is that everyone on both sides of this issue would take the money they’re spending on this and donating it to a worthy cause,” Cook said.

Repeating previous statements, Cook also said that the

may be more inclined to invest wisely for your future.

• Visualization. In yoga, visualization is often used to reduce stress.

At any given time, you might find it difficult to relax, but you can use your imagination to see yourself – and put yourself – in a relaxed state. As an investor, you need to visualize your goals, such as a comfortable retirement, before you can define a strategy to help you work toward them. By seeing yourself where you want to be, you’ll be motivated to take the actions necessary to work toward getting there.

Try putting the principles of yoga to work – they may help you become a better investor.

Apple CEO Tim Cook is calling a shareholder lawsuit against the company a “silly sideshow,” even as he said he is open to looking at the shareholder’s proposals for sharing more cash with investors. tion Tuesday, saying the company invested $10 billion in its business last year, through spending on research and design, equipment and an expansion of its chain of stores. It has also committed to handing out $45 billion to shareholders over three years, through dividends and share buybacks.

Analysts, however, point out that Apple seems to have run out of things to invest in, and the $45 billion commitment is small compared with the company’s profits.

NEW YORK – Coca-Cola is facing a tough time: people are drinking less soda in the U.S. and Europe and uncertain economic conditions around the world are weighing on the world’s biggest beverage maker.

The Atlanta-based company said Tuesday that its profit rose in the fourth quarter, as it benefited from growth in emerging markets and a shift in the calendar that resulted in two extra selling days for the period. But sales volume fell in China and Europe, reflecting a pullback in consumer spending.

In North America, its biggest market by revenue, volume rose just 1 percent, boosted by its Powerade sports drinks and bottled teas. The company sold 2 percent less soda.

In a conference call with analysts, CEO Muhtar Kent said he expects 2013 will “once again be a year of challenges” but that the company nevertheless expects to hit its long-term target of 6 percent to 8 percent growth in operating income.

In the U.S., he said CocaCola is starting to see signs of improvement in consumer

sentiment but that it was still waiting to see the impact of higher payroll taxes and gasoline prices. In China and Europe, the company said it expects volumes to start rebounding in coming quarters.

“Our view is that this is not the start of a trend,” said Gary Fayard, the company’s chief financial officer, noting that quarterly declines occasionally happen.

Coca-Cola, which also makes Fanta, Minute Maid and Dasani water, is increasingly looking for growth in countries where its drinks aren’t yet as ubiquitous as they are in developed nations. In North America, the company is also relying on a shifting mix of beverages to boost sales amid intensifying criticism of sugary sodas.

The company is also facing tougher competition from PepsiCo Inc., which has significantly stepped up its marketing with major deals including a multiyear contract to sponsor the Super Bowl halftime show. When asked whether that push was having any effect, Kent declined to comment but noted that Coca-Cola’s share of the soda market grew despite a broader industry decline.

Edwin Schlossberg, the founder of ESI Design and the constructor of the first hands-on learning environment in the United States at the Brooklyn Children’s Museum, said, “True interactivity is not about clicking on icons or downloading files; it’s about encouraging communication.”

True bridge is not about making meaningless bids and playing uninformative cards; it is about communicating with your partner -- and sometimes about breaking the opponents’ communication.

In this deal, South is in three no-trump after East overcalled in hearts. West leads the heart 10. How should declarer plan the play?

Some Souths would have made a negative double over one heart to show the four-card spade suit.

But with a limited hand worth only one bid, two solid heart stoppers and four weak spades, I like one no-trump. (If South had doubled, North would have rebid two hearts, a gameforcing cue-bid, South would have rebid two or three no-trump, and the final contract would have been the same.)

South started with seven

top tricks: two spades, two hearts and three diamonds.

He had to establish two club winners.

Thinking no further, the original declarer took the first trick and played a club from his hand. West was not napping. He rose with his king and led his remaining heart. Whether South won or lost this trick, when he played a second club, East took the trick and cashed his hearts for down one.

South should have cut the communications between East and West by ducking the first trick. Then he would have made his contract.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - Although the route you choose to follow in the year ahead might not be an easy one, you know that it could lead somewhere quite valuable. Success is likely if you have the courage of your convictions.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Even though you’re inclined to even the score with someone who did something that you deeply resent, try to find out the motives behind this person’s actions. You’ll have a smarter reaction.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Every once in a while, you’re far too generous to an undeserving person.

This is one of those days when you might again exercise such poor judgment.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Be extremely selective about the goals you pursue. Make sure they will bring you satisfaction once you’ve achieved them.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Because of a reluctance on your part to express what is really disturbing you, friends and/or associates could find you perplexing, as well as difficult to deal with. Speak out.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- It behooves you to be more selective about those with whom you choose to associate. Steer clear of companions who have a faculty for making waves and causing trouble.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- For the sake of harmony, try to view things from your mate or other house member’s perspective. What’s important to you might not be to him or her.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Having a bad attitude about the day’s duties is likely to produce bad results.

Putting a smile on your face will make your job quite a bit easier.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Although you may be having difficulty getting someone who is indebted to you to settle his or her account, applying pressure won’t help. Find another way.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Be extremely diplomatic when dealing with your mate or an important person in your life if you hope to maintain domestic harmony. Nothing will be gained by bringing up old, divisive issues.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Overstepping the fine line between constructive criticism and nitpicking could produce a situation that will surprise even you. Be more sensitive about what you say and how you say it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Should you want to make a purchase from a firm that you’ve never dealt with, make sure the merchandise can be returned in case you have second thoughts.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If a person with whom you’re involved isn’t living up to his or her claims, you’ll handle it much better if you’re congenial. Don’t be authoritarian or harsh.
