Right to run for 2 seats in doubt 2 candidates for MCC board also seeking school district positions, raising legal questions

By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Just three weeks before the election, two candidates in a hotly contested race could be kicked off the

ballot.

Chris Jenner and Erik Sivertsen are two in a field of nine hopefuls seeking a seat on the McHenry County College board. Both men also are running for their local elementary

school boards.

Questions arose about whether the men can seek both positions simultaneously.

A 1996 informal opinion from the Illinois Attorney General’s Office said school

board and community college election positions are “incompatible,” therefore election law prohibits McHenry County Clerk Katherine Schultz from printing their names on the ballots.

“I don’t know why this couldn’t have been addressed months ago, weeks ago,” Jenner said.

It’s still unclear whether the men can run as write-in candidates.

PADS succeeds with volunteers

Schultz is seeking legal direction in McHenry County Court documents filed Wednesday. A ruling is expected Monday.

Organization helps shelter homeless

By CHELSEA McDOUGALL • cmcdougall@shawmedia.com Rich Ring started volunteering to help the county’s homeless before his oldest daughter was born.

She recently turned 22.

“I never really was counting it,” said Ring, who is a site manager at the Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church homeless site in Cary. “God asks you to take care of the homeless. I’m just doing God’s work.”

Ring is one of more than an estimated 1,000 volunteers who devote time to the Public Action to Deliver Shelter, or PADS, sites.

To shelter its homeless, the county has a day center in Woodstock that is run through the Pioneer Center for Human Services and provides laundry services, mental health counseling and resources such as phones and computers during the day.

Each night during the seven coldest months of the year – October through April – nine churches also take turns providing shelter and food from 7 p.m. until 7 a.m. the next day.

ARGONNE – President Barack Obama stood in front of three cars that run on battery power, saying that one day, research being done at Argonne National Laboratory near Darien could help Americans travel farther than ever at a more affordable price.

However, the sequester cuts may affect alternative fuel research.

Obama told reporters gathered Friday at Argonne that one of the reasons he is against the sequester is because it doesn’t distinguish between wasteful programs and needed investments, such as the funding to continue some of the work and research at Argonne.

Located just outside Darien and Lemont, Argonne National Laboratory is one of the U.S. Energy Department’s largest national laboratories for scientific and engineering research. In December, the Joint Center for Energy Storage Research, headquartered at Argonne, was chosen to be the new batteries and energy storage hub – representing a $120 million federal investment over the next five years.

Obama stressed the need to continue funding research and finding new ways to use less oil – keeping energy at home and creating new jobs.

“I chose [to come to] Argonne National Lab because right now, few areas hold more promise for creating new jobs and growing our economy than how we use American energy,” Obama said.

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

Lessons learned go beyond the rink My son stood at center ice with the opposing team’s goalie, posing for pictures with a big smile on his face.

The smile wasn’t because my son’s Rockford Hockey Club squirt team had won. It hadn’t. It just lost the championship game to Winnetka, 5-4, at the Brickyard Tournament in Indianapolis on Martin Luther King Jr. Day in January.

My son’s smile was the result of being named his team’s tournament MVP, an award given to him by the choosing of his coach. At the blue line near the far boards, I stood with a smile on my face and, maybe, a tear in my eye.

I could not have been a prouder papa, even in defeat. And it was that moment that I knew my wife and I made the right decision by allowing our son to play club hockey.

All the benefits of playing a team sport such as hockey were on display in this championship game.

My son’s team trailed, 4-1, in the third period. Keep in mind, the boys had lost to the same Winnetka team the day before, 3-0.

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Jason Schaumburg At this point, nobody could have blamed the team members for giving up, skating out the clock and jumping into our cars for the five-hour drive home.

Instead, the boys fought back.

Suddenly, it was 4-2. Then 4-3. Riding a wave of momentum, the team tied the game, 4-4. With about three minutes remaining in the period, my son’s team thought it took a 5-4 lead when the puck found the back of Winnetka’s net.

The goal didn’t count. The referee whistled us for a penalty. Winnetka scored the game-winner on the ensuing power play.

But the traits the boys displayed during that third period made us all proud parents. They trusted each other. They showed teamwork. They never quit. They left it all out on the ice. We won even though we lost,

and those lessons carry over to other things in life.

I had heard all the horror stories of playing travel hockey. It’s expensive.

It takes up a lot of time. You have to drive everywhere at all hours.

That’s all true.

But there’s so much more; for the kids and the parents.

All that time together and all that hockey builds a camaraderie. The kids become good friends, as do the parents. You share moments that become lifelong memories. And it’s amazing to watch your kid improve on the ice.

This club season has concluded.

The focus now shifts to spring hockey and summer camps. After my rookie season as a hockey dad, I’m proud to say I loved everything about it. And I’m sure hockey parents who have kids playing for the Crystal Lake Yellowjackets, the Leafs or the Barrington Redwings agree: The benefits far outweigh everything else.

••• Speaking of the Redwings: Several local youth hockey players helped the Barrington Redwings’ Mite AA Gold

team win the Northern Illinois Hockey League’s President’s Cup. The award is given to the team with the most points at the end of the regular season. The Redwings – coached

by Steve Martins (head coach), Mark Eissler (assistant) and Jason Van Herik (assistant) – went 11-0-3 and were one of only five NIHL teams across all age groups to post an undefeated regular season.

Playing on the team were Hunter Eissler (Barrington), Jake Lukasik (Cary), Tommy O’Neill (Inverness), Caden Pullen (Fox River Grove), Andres Rojas (Barrington), Tommy Shore (Crystal Lake), Calvin Spieth (Fox River Grove), Kevin Spieth (Fox River Grove), Noah Van Herik (Kildeer) and Grant Webster (Lake Zurich).

Could global warming change tornado season, too?

Meanwhile, Canada saw an unusual number of tornadoes in 2012; Saskatchewan had three times the normal number.

Air traffic closures will strip layer of safety net

By JASON KEYSER The Associated Press CHICAGO – The planned shutdown of nearly 240 air traffic control towers across the country under federal budget cuts will strip away an extra layer of safety during takeoffs and landings, leaving pilots to manage the most critical stages of flight on their own.

The towers slated to close are at smaller airports with lighter traffic, and all pilots are trained to land without help by communicating among themselves on a common radio frequency. But airport directors and pilots say there is little doubt the removal of that second pair of eyes on the ground increases risk and will slow the progress that has made the U.S. air system the safest in the world.

It’s not just private pilots in small planes who stand to be affected. Many of the airports in question are serviced by major airlines, and the cuts could also leave towers unmanned during overnight hours at some big-city air-

Baggage handlers unload an American Eagle jet after it landed Tuesday at the Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport in Springfield. The airport is one of nearly 240 small airports around the country that will likely shut down their air traffic control towers under federal budget cuts. ports such as Chicago’s Midway and General Mitchell Airport in Milwaukee. The plans have prompted airlines to review whether the changes might pose problems for commercial service that could mean canceling or rescheduling flights.

Without the help of controllers, risk “goes up exponentially,” said Mark Hanna, director of the Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport in

Springfield, which could see its tower close.

As part of the spending cuts that went into effect this month, the Federal Aviation Administration is being forced to trim $637 million for the rest of the fiscal year that ends Sept. 30.

The agency said it had no choice but to subject most of its 47,000 employees, including tower controllers, to periodic furloughs.

Health spokeswoman Melaney Arnold said the patient has no rabies symptoms, but began treatment Thursday.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Friday that four people received donated organs from a man unknowingly infected with rabies.

The donor died in Florida in 2011, and his kidneys, heart and liver were transplanted soon afterward. A Maryland man who received a kidney died more than a week ago.

Senator shifts on gay marriage The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – A Republican senator’s embrace of gay marriage is the latest sign of soul-searching in a party struggling to adapt in a society whose demographics – and views on emotional issues – are changing fast.

Gay marriage still divides the party, with the conservative wing strongly opposed.

But an increasing number of Republicans, now including Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio, are reversing course. Many others simply downplay the subject.

With the issue of immigration also shifting rapidly under Republicans’ feet, they seem increasingly focused – and united – on one overarching goal: keeping income taxes from rising. Their solidarity on that issue is hindering President Barack Obama’s efforts to make

CHICAGO – A group of Chicago-area gun shops and gun owners are suing in an attempt to stop a new $25 tax on gun purchases in Cook County.

Plaintiffs in the lawsuit filed Thursday in Cook County Circuit Court claim the new tax violates the right to bear arms. The tax goes into effect April 1 and is projected to bring in $600,000 this year.

considered him to be his running mate last year. Portman says he told Romney of his son Will’s sexuality but does not believe it affected Romney’s decision.

As a U.S. House member in 1996, Portman supported the Defense of Marriage Act, or DOMA. It defines marriage as between a man and a woman and bars federal recognition of same-sex marriage.

Portman’s reversal makes him the only Senate Republican to openly back gay marriage.

“I have come to believe that if two people are prepared to make a lifetime commitment to love and care for each other in good times and in bad, the government shouldn’t deny them the opportunity to get married,” Portman wrote in an op-ed article in The Columbus Dispatch.

Woman reviled for son’s murder may go free

By BOB CHRISTIE The Associated Press

Pope Francis prepares Friday to greet cardinals, moments before stumbling in Sala Clementina, at the Vatican. The newly appointed Pope Francis stumbled after being introduced to the College of Cardinals, but did not fall and quickly recovered.

Vatican declares campaign against pope defamatory

By NICOLE WINFIELD The Associated Press VATICAN CITY – The Vatican lashed out Friday at what it called a “defamatory” and “anti-clerical left-wing” campaign to discredit Pope Francis over his actions during Argentina’s 1976-1983 military junta, saying no credible accusation had ever stuck against the new pope.

While the former Jorge Mario Bergoglio, like most other Argentines, failed to openly confront the murderous dictatorship, human rights activists differ on how much responsibility he personally deserves. Bergoglio ran the Jesuit order in Argentina during the dictatorship.

The Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi noted Friday that a Jesuit who was kidnapped during the dictatorship in a case that involved Bergoglio had issued a statement earlier in the day saying the two had reconciled.

Lombardi also noted that Argentine courts had never accused Bergoglio of any crime and that, on the contrary, there is ample evidence of the role he played protecting people from the military as it kidnapped and killed thousands of people in a “dirty war” to eliminate leftist opponents.

He said the accusations

were made long ago “by anti-clerical left-wing elements to attack the church and must be decisively rejected.”

Lombardi’s statement and the accusation behind it were an interruption in the honeymoon that Francis has enjoyed since his remarkable election as pope on Wednesday, when even his choice of footwear – his old black shoes rather than the typical papal red – was noted as a sign of his simplicity and humility.

On his first day as pope, Francis slipped out of the Vatican to settle the bill at the hotel where he had stayed before the conclave, returning to deliver his first homily as pope.

On Friday, he slipped out again to visit an ailing Argentine cardinal, Jorge Mejia, who had a heart attack on Wednesday and was being cared for at Rome’s Pius XI hospital, Vatican Radio reported. Francis had told cardinals of Mijia’s illness earlier in the day in an unscripted aside during his audience with them.

The accusations of Bergoglio’s past are clashing with the upbeat narrative unfolding during Francis’ first few days as pope in Rome. And Lombardi clearly felt that he needed to say something to try to put an end to them – even if in doing so he gave the story further legs.

Obama needs to charm skeptical Israelis in visit

By ARON HELLER The Associated Press JERUSALEM – Barack Obama’s vow to take his message straight to the public during his first presidential visit to Israel will be a tough sell with many Israelis who consider him naive, too soft on the nation’s enemies and cool to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Overcoming this perception will require a major charm offensive and an uncompromising U.S. pledge to stand behind Israel, especially when it comes to stopping Iran’s suspect nuclear program. Without a major initiative in his pocket for making peace between Israel and the Palestinians, the U.S. president will use his three-day visit, which begins on Wednesday, primarily as a means to convey a close alliance with Israel.

Rather than address Israeli leaders in parliament, as his predecessor George W. Bush did, Obama will deliver his main speech at a Jerusalem auditorium packed with university students.

Tickets for Obama’s speech Thursday at a 1,000-seat convention center are much in demand, and students are en-

tering ticket raffles across the country.

“He could have spoken to politicians or tycoons, but instead he chose to speak to us,” said Lotem Cazes, a 25-yearold political science student at Ben-Gurion University in the southern city of Beersheba. “It’s very moving. Even though he knows that not everyone likes him here he is still coming and trying to help.”

In another effort to woo the Israeli public, Obama granted an exclusive interview with Channel 2 TV at the White House.

“What this trip allows me to do is once again to connect to the Israeli people and there is no substitute to that. The bonds between our two countries are so strong, not just shared values but shared families, shared businesses,” he said in the interview, which aired Thursday. “And for me to be able to directly speak to the Israeli people and talk about our unshakable commitment to Israel, but also to talk about hopefully a shared vision of a more peaceful and prosperous future during a time when we know there is a lot of tumult in the area, it is a great opportunity for me. I’m really looking forward to it.”

PHOENIX – Debra Milke was once one of the most reviled mothers around, convicted of dressing her 4-yearold son in his favorite outfit and sending him off to visit a mall Santa Claus with two men who shot the boy execution-style in the Arizona desert.

Milke said she had nothing to do with Christopher’s death, but a detective testified at her 1990 trial that she had confessed to him – and him alone – in a closed interrogation room. Prosecutors said she killed her son to collect on a $5,000 insurance policy.

Now, Milke could walk free, leaving death row behind after a federal appeals court threw out her conviction Thursday because prosecutors had not turned over evidence of the detective’s history of misconduct, includ-

ing lying under oath in other cases.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel concluded that prosecutors’ failure to turn over the evidence deprived Milke’s attorneys of the chance to question Phoenix Police Detective Armando Saldate Jr.’s credibility before jurors. And because it was the only direct evidence tying her to the killing, that fact could have swayed the jury, the panel ruled.

“No civilized system of justice should have to depend on such flimsy evidence, quite possibly tainted by dishonesty or overzealousness, to decide whether to take someone’s life or liberty,” according to the opinion by Chief Judge Alex Kozinski.

The ruling has raised questions about other cases in which the now-retired Saldate gave testimony.

The court noted four cases where judges threw out con-

the U.S. Supreme court to reverse this 9th Circuit decision.”

Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery, who will be charged with deciding whether to retry Milke if the ruling stands, said Friday that he will have to review the available evidence and Saldate’s credibility himself before deciding how to proceed.

He said there may be more evidence that wasn’t used at the 1990 trial. “I want to know what ... happened, after reading the opinion,” Montgomery said. “I want to be able to review the available information and understand for myself.”

But Montgomery said changes in the way rogue officers are monitored had changed since 1990. Now, officers with credibility problems are tracked in a database so that those issues are caught early and disclosed to defense lawyers when necessary.

Let me explain...

Most hearing loss occurs so gradually that you may be the last to know it is happening to you. However, to others (friends, family, co-workers, even your boss) it may be obvious that something is not right. Hearing loss makes it seem like you don’t pay attention or that you are much older than you really are.

Untreated hearing loss can cause you to retreat into isolation and lose touch with the people and activities most important to you. As you constantly strain to hear what people are saying, it can also cause irritability, fatigue, tension and depression.

It doesn’t have to be this way. Over 90% of people that get help for their hearing report improvements in their quality of life. Studies confirm that people that get help for their hearing are more active, happier, healthier, and have higher earning potential than people with untreated hearing loss.

He also was suspended for accepting sexual favors from a female motorist he stopped and then lying about the encounter, it said.

Saldate, who was elected to a county constable post after retiring but has now left that post, could not be reached for comment Friday.

Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne said he intends to appeal the case to the U.S. Supreme Court and will argue it himself if they accept the case, saying the decision was the first to raise the issue after decades of court hearings.

In 2012, 359 people came Schultz hoping for clarification soon to print ballots SEATS through PADS’ day center •Continued from page A1 • PADS

PADS sites

Continued from page A1 In 2012, 359 people came through the day center, and 206 to the church sites. PADS coordinator Matt Kostecki believes that number will be higher when the final figures are totaled. The cold winter forced more people inside, he said.

Every Monday, Sts. Peter and Paul in Cary serves as one of the weekly emergency sites in the county. The churches rotate nights with this service.

As guests lined up outside on a recent Monday night, volunteers were busy setting out 4-inch-thick mattress pads, on top of which they placed carefully folded sheets and pillows.

The sleeping arrangements – in one room for men and in another for women – were on the floor about 10 to 12 inches apart.

“We got ’em packed in like sardines,” Ring said as he monitored operations at the Cary church. That night there were 48 people staying overnight, including one pregnant woman and one infant.

Running the sites is a finetuned operation, made possible by the generosity of those willing to devote their time and energy.

As the guests filed in one by one, many dropped off earlier by a volunteer-driven bus, there were volunteers to check them in, take their bags, serve them food, listen to their stories.

“In a world where so much can overwhelm people, I can come here and make a difference for a few people,” volunteer Mary Badgley of McHenry said of why she is a PADS volunteer.

Like many involved in PADS, Ring wants to see the county move from the emergency site system to a perma-

“We have a shelter for our animals, why not our humans?” Ring asked.

Although the volunteers are there to help the homeless, without them the organization couldn’t survive.

“Our volunteers are really an integral part of PADS,” said Rebecca Heeman-Moore, the PADS church site liaison. “If we didn’t have our volunteer church sites, our clients would not have a place to sleep. Without them, we’d be a much different organization.”

And it’s important to remember that 25 years ago, the organization started with volunteers, and is successful because of them.

“What they give goes beyond a warm meal and a place to stay, it’s the compassion they offer to our clients,” Heeman-Moore said. “The generosity and kindness of people is really overwhelming. It’s a wonderful thing.”

“I’ve never run into the situation,” Schultz said. “I want the courts behind me no matter what.”

Jenner on Monday withdrew his re-election bid for the Cary District 26 school board, but Schultz said there still are questions about whether it’s too late for him to withdraw.

He called the court filing a “distraction” to his campaign.

“I believe the complaint is without merit,” Jenner said.

“It only draws attention away from the important issue of the MCC board seeking to violate taxpayers’ rights by selling bonds without a referendum.”

Sivertsen is still running in McHenry District 15 and doesn’t believe there is a problem with his filing.

“The offices are not incompatible, when state law specifically permits holding both offices simultaneously, and there is no legal basis for them to remove either of us from the ballot,” he said in an email to the Northwest Herald.

State law says that if a school board member is elected or appointed to a community college board, he can serve the remainder of his term, but once that school board term

Obama: New energy will shrink carbon footprint • OBAMA Continued from page A1 In researching how to make batteries last longer, the facility plays a major role in the Energy Department’s energy storage program within its Office of Vehicle Technologies, focusing on improving lithium batteries for lighter cars.

“Wouldn’t you want your car battery, your phone bat-

tery or any battery for that matter to run longer and more efficiently?” said Karena Chapman, an Argonne scientist from Naperville who works on batteries in the preliminary stage.

Eric Isaacs, Argonne director, told Obama the cuts from the sequester would force him to stop any new project.

But Isaacs said the immediate effects are still uncertain.

“We don’t know yet because the whole government is trying to figure out what the cuts will be, so we’re planning, but we’re hoping for the best,” Isaacs said.

In the meantime, Argonne scientists are coming to work every day and continuing “their great work,” he added.

During his visit, Obama also urged Congress to authorize spending $2 billion over the next decade for research on electric cars and decreas-

ing the need for oil in the U.S. New energy will not only shrink the nation’s carbon footprint but also boost the economy, Obama said.

“I want the next great job-creating breakthroughs, whether it’s in energy or nanotechnology or bioengineering – I want those breakthroughs to be right here in the United States of America, creating American jobs and maintaining our technological lead,” Obama said.

8SKETCH VIEW

Domestic violence court welcomed McHenry County court officials will embark on their third specialty court, all three of which make a great deal of sense in modernizing approaches to crime and important societal issues.

Drug court and mental health court have been successes so far, and there’s no expectation that domestic violence court won’t be another benefit to McHenry County For the record based on the leadership that Judge Domestic violence cases Charles Weech need to be resolved quicker and Scott Block, and with the attention they specialty courts deserve. coordinator, have shown.

In the past, all crimes have been treated in a similar way. But some criminal behavior can’t be separated from unique issues. If we expect results, these unique cases should not be handled in a traditional crime-and-punishment fashion.

Criminal courts are not factories making widgets. They are designed to protect society, and often the square pegs won’t fit into round holes.

Domestic violence is one of those pervasive issues that has a wider impact and root causes that must be addressed if we are to end the cycle. Domestic violence has a tremendous negative effect on victims, on children and on families, in addition to the ramifications for the offender.

Lumping misdemeanor domestic battery cases in with DUIs, shoplifting charges and minor drug offenses allows domestic battery cases to drown on flooded court calls, which isn’t good for anyone.

These cases need to be resolved more quickly and with the attention they deserve.

What often happens when they drag along is that victims become weary from repeated court appearances and prosecutors’ cases lose their steam with unmotivated witnesses. Then the cycle of domestic violence is allowed to fester.

The good news, at least on the surface, is that the number of domestic violence cases in McHenry County has been steadily dropping, from 749 cases in 2008 to 610 cases last year, although no one can really say how many cases are never reported to police.

What’s important is that pleas are resolved quickly and appropriately and that both victims and defendants get the counseling they need to stop the cycle of domestic violence.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Troop hosts debate To the Editor: I wish to commend the boys at Troop 166 in Fox River Grove for hosting the upcoming village trustee debate.

There are six candidates running for three trustee positions, and these scouts had the courage and civic duty to host, run, select and create the questions for this debate.

All candidates will be attending, and I hope village residents will stop in to learn about the candidates. The debate will be at 7 p.m. April 1 at the Fox River Grove Village Hall, 305 Illinois St. Richard Andersen Fox River Grove

restrictions on our First Amendment rights? Are we really so naïve to believe that this will all end with a few same-sex couples getting “married” and living happily ever after?

With the passage of SB10, we will have set the logical and legal precedent for people who want to redefine marriage to their own standards. With the current standards abolished, marriage will be what anyone wants it to be, limited only by one’s imagination.

Before we jettison one of the foundational tenets of western civilization, let’s wind down the emotional sensationalism and use some prudence and logic. Call your state representative and tell them to vote this one down.

Mahady for assessor

8ANOTHER VIEW

Treat violence against women with urgency Some horrific events over the past few months, including the shooting of a Pakistani schoolgirl and the rape and murder of a young Indian physiotherapy student, should have been an alert for the world to unite in preventing violence against women.

But if a conference at the United Nations is any guide, that message has not resounded with the necessary urgency. Halfway into their twoweek annual meeting, delegates to the Commission on the Status of Women fear they will not be able to agree on a final communiqué, just like last year.

Who is to blame? Delegates and activists are pointing fingers at the Vatican, Iran and Russia for trying to eliminate language in a draft communiqué asserting that the familiar excuses – religion, custom, tradition – cannot be used by governments to duck their obligation to eliminate violence. The United Nations Human Rights Council endorsed similar language just six months ago.

Conservative hard-liners seem determined to fight it out again. They have also objected to references to abortion rights, as well as language suggesting that rape also includes forcible behavior by a woman’s husband or partner. Poland, Egypt, other Muslim states and conservative American Christian groups have criticized one or more parts of the draft. The efforts by the Vatican and Iran to control women are well known. It is not clear what motivates Russia, although there is a strong antifeminist strain in President Vladimir V. Putin’s government. He may also be trying to curry favor with Islamic states.

In any case, the suggestion that traditional values justify the violation of basic human rights is spurious. As Inga Marte Thorkildsen, Norway’s gender equality minister, has noted, “Violence against women must be seen as a human-rights issue, and that has nothing to do with culture or religion.”

The conference will be a failure if it cannot produce ambitious global standards that will deliver concrete results to protect women and girls.

To the Editor: I’m a McHenry Township resident, and I am very glad that we finally will have a choice for assessor in the April 9 election.

I don’t believe this has ever been a contested race. The usual procedure has been that once someone is in, they stay until they are ready to retire. They run again, get re-elected and then retire shortly after that. The trustees appoint someone, and the voters have no say in who is in that office.

I don’t think the current assessor will finish the term if she is re-elected. I urge you to vote for Mary Mahady. She is more than qualified, highly respected and committed to serving the people of the township.

Henry Dagens McHenry

Ready for gay marriage?

To the Editor: Are we ready?

Before our state House of Representatives determines that the current standards of marriage are no longer acceptable, we need to consider the consequences of the passage of SB10 and so-called gay marriage.

Have we thought about what will come next? Are we really ready to have a man dressed as a woman teach our kindergarten students?

Are we ready to have the opposite sexes use the same washrooms, not only in schools, but also stores, movie theaters and workplaces?

Do we really want our students taught that the behavior we see at gay pride parades is wholesome and healthy?

Are we ready to have further

Restore integrity To the Editor: As a broker of a McHenry real estate office, I’m appalled that the McHenry Township assessor has such contempt for Realtors.

My agents give their clients good evidence to help them appeal, only to be told by Carol Perschke that it’s not good enough. Clients leave Perschke’s office feeling confused and frustrated. They leave decieved, without knowing that appealing to the Board of Review is their right.

Mary Mahady knows that Realtors help taxpayers in this process and welcomes their participation.

Realtor assistance may be the best and least costly method available.

Mary will never embarrass or belittle taxpayers for questioning their assessment. Mary will restore integrity to that office.

Taxpayers deserve honesty and respect. Vote for Mary Mahady on April 9.

President’s conduct is ‘unacceptable’ To the Editor: On March 8, the village of Johnsburg posted a press release to the news media and its residents maliciously chastising a Johnsburg family.

For the record, President Ed Hettermann confirmed having made a unilateral decision to post the press release without first consulting village trustees.

For those unaware, the wife of the family in question is Mr. Hettermann’s opponent in the upcom-

How to sound off We welcome original letters on public issues.

Letters must include the author’s full name, home address and day and evening telephone numbers.

We limit letters to 250 words and one published letter every 30 days. Election-related letters are limited to 150 words. The deadline to submit an election-

ing election for village president.

Furthermore, the electronic media tools used in the posting are those belonging to the village and are supported and paid for with taxpayer dollars.

Conduct of this nature is reprehensible, and to use the village’s assets to campaign under the guise of a village press release is unacceptable.

To Frank and Margaret Haney, I offer my personal, sincere apology as your elected official and acknowledge your rights as residents to speak in a public forum and access documents that are part of the public record.

I believe similar regrets will be forthcoming from other board members.

Can re-elect only Low To the Editor: We need a strong leader and one that represents the people of the community.

I see signs all over town asking to re-elect Sue Low and Steve Cuda.

Am I wrong, or does the city of McHenry have two mayors? There are signs to re-elect them both.

Sue Low is the incumbent. Tell me how can we re-elect Steve Cuda?

All surrounding communities have been through some tough times these past few years. Most, if not all, have lost a huge tax base with businesses closing. We have been fortunate to have Low and a select few aldermen who put the city and its people first.

They have run on a balanced budget while many entities have not been able to. Let’s stick with a winner and re-elect Sue Low for mayor.

year of the Trail of History.

It noted budgetary constraints as a reason, with the event costing approximately $18,000.

Meanwhile, the MCCD continues to buy flat, productive farmland – which is then basically used to grow weeds. This not only spends MCCD money, but it also takes properties off the tax roll, which negatively impacts other local government budgets.

I believe that rather than scrapping a family and community favorite, the MCCD would be better served to stop buying productive farmland.

Even renting the land to area farmers would be a better option – at $200 per acre for farmland lease, MCCD would be able to cover the cost of Trail of History with a mere 100-acre farm. (It is not uncommon to see $300-$350 per tillable acre leases in northern Illinois, per John Greene Land Company.)

The MCCD should reconsider ending an enjoyable and educational local event.

‘Spelling Bee’ a blast To the Editor: Congratulations to the Townsquare Players for putting together an outstanding cast for “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.” Their performance at Sunday’s matinee show was an uproarious blast to be at, and we highly recommend that everyone get out to the Woodstock Opera House during the next two weeks to enjoy a professionally, well put together show in an awesome venue such as the Opera House.

Thank you to Paul Lockwood, Roger Zawacki and the entire cast for inviting Lucas to be the celebrity guest and accommodating us with regards to letting him take a picture with all of you.

Job well done. Bravo.

PG POLICE BOOST WEEKEND PATROLS PRAIRIE GROVE – The Prairie Grove Police Department will be cracking down on drunken drivers and seat-belt violators during the St. Patrick’s Day weekend.

The stepped-up enforcement started Friday and will run through St. Patrick’s Day on Sunday.

The Prairie Grove Police Department recommends designating a sober driver ahead of time and not letting friends and family drive drunk as two simple steps to avoid a crash or a drunken driving arrest.

Other important tips include: • If you are drunk, call a taxi, use mass transit or call a sober friend or family member to get you home safely.

• Promptly report drunken drivers you see on the roadways to law enforcement.

• Wear your seat belt and make sure all passengers are buckled up. It is your best defense against a drunken driver.

The law enforcement crackdown is administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation with funds made available via the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

McHenry district leader named IPA Superintendent of the Year

By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com McHENRY – A McHenry school district leader was named Superintendent of the Year by the Illinois Principals Association for the Kishwaukee region.

District 15 Superintendent Alan Hoffman received the award at Tuesday’s school board meeting.

Hoffman, who has spent nine years as District 15 superintendent, said the award is a testament to the hard work of everyone in the district.

“I’m proud of our whole entire school district,” Hoffman said. “It’s not one person that does these things, it’s all of us working together. We have a tremendously talented staff, a supportive school board, and a supportive community and parents.”

This year District 15 has been recognized on the national and state level for its innovative staff-development initiatives, and it received an award from the Center for College and Career Readiness for its efforts with the Common Core, Illinois’ new learning standards.

“We’re really looking at how to

“We’re really looking at how to provide staff development for our teachers that’s going to improve instruction in the classroom. That’s really what it’s about – helping your staff improve and grow, and being really on the cutting edge of instruction in the classroom.”

provide staff development for our teachers that’s going to improve instruction in the classroom,” Hoffman said. “That’s really what it’s about – helping your staff improve and grow, and being really on the cutting edge of instruction in the classroom.”

District 15 this year also earned a certificate of financial recognition from the Illinois State Board of Education. Hoffman said being good stewards of community resources is a top priority.

“We’ve kept our eye on quality education, but we’ve also kept our eye on being fiscally conservative as a school district,” he said. “It’s something that we’re proud of.”

District 15 board Vice President

Kim Qualls said Hoffman “embodies a mix of personal humility and professional will” and “values and respects every member of the team.”

Hoffman said it was important to develop a “climate of collaboration,” where teachers and students could come together and feel like one big family.

“If you walk into any of our buildings here, you’ll see outstanding things happening,” he said. “You’ll see artwork in the hallways. You’ll see kids laughing. You’ll see kids learning. They’re using technology in innovative ways. Teachers are doing all kinds of cutting-edge things in the classroom. It’s just a wonderful place to work. It’s the best place I’ve ever worked.”

RICHMOND – In an effort to bring in more revenue, the village of Richmond has doubled some of its fees and added new taxes.

As part of its budgeting process, the Richmond Finance Committee has been evaluating its fees, comparing them with other area communities. The Village Next meeting Board approved When: 4:15 p.m. its recommendations at its Tuesday Where: Richmond last meeting.

It also doubled the telecommunications tax to 6 percent, the maximum allowed under state law, from 3 percent, effective July 1. The tax affects telephone and Internet services.

The village also established two new utility taxes on electricity and gas.

Man charged with reckless firearm use

By SARAH SUTSCHEK ssutschek@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A Woodstock man has been charged after police said he accidentally fired a bullet that went through his TV, the wall of his apartment, the wall of a neighbor’s house, damanged a window and then became lodged in a piece of trim.

Paul J. Csech, 22, of 420 Vine St., Unit 2, was charged with reckless Paul J. Csech discharge of a firearm, a Class 4 felony, and criminal damage to property, a Class A misdemeanor.

About 2 a.m., Woodstock police were dispatched to the area of Freemont and Vine streets after a caller indicated hearing possible gunshots. Officers went to the area but were unable to identify the cause.

About four hours later, at 6 a.m., officers were dispatched to a house in that area for a property damage complaint.

Show could become nationally syndicated with high ratings • WALSH Continued from page B1 Bean as part of the 2010 tea party wave that helped the GOP retake the U.S. House of Representatives.

Jeff Reisman, general manager of parent company Salem Communications’ two Chicago stations, said in a statement that there are “few politicians in Illinois or anywhere in the country that garner as much attention as Joe Walsh.”

He said that Walsh’s show will be the only one in the Chicago media market discussing Illinois politics during that time slot.

“Joe is an outspoken defender of freedom, and because of his firsthand experience in Congress, he brings a unique perspective to the national conversation as our country searches for answers during these challenging times,” Reisman said.

“[There are] few politicians in Illinois or anywhere in the country ... garner as much attention as Joe Walsh.”

Jeff Reisman General manager of Salem Communications’ two Chicago stations Reisman would not comment Friday on Walsh’s contract duration or salary. While the show will start on WIND, Walsh would have a shot at national syndication should his show get strong ratings.

Walsh’s outspokenness during his term in Congress was loved by conservatives and reviled by liberals. He generated controversy throughout his term, from shouting at constituents during a town hall meeting to allegations

that dogged him in the second half of his term that he owed more than $100,000 in child-support payments.

Walsh said in a statement that he is excited to take the national debate to Chicago-area listeners, and that the show will be a “great platform to grow a freedom movement which is already gaining momentum right here in Illinois.”

“I intend to do with this program what I did as a U.S. congressman – speak plainly, speak directly, not worry about political correctness, and engage in respectful, engaging debate with all viewpoints. This is just too important of a time for all of us to do anything less,” Walsh said.

Walsh ran for re-election in the 8th District, which under post-census redistricting was moved south to more Democrat-friendly territory. He lost to Democratic challenger Tammy Duckworth.

County residents gather for St. Baldrick’s Foundation

Students and staff members went bald the day after community members shaved their heads for the foundation, raising more than $15,000.

Bullet broke neighbor’s window • FIREARM Continued from page B1 The woman there told officers that she had been sleeping in her upstairs bedroom when she was awakened by a loud sound about 2 a.m. She looked around but didn’t find anything unusual, and went back to sleep.

However, when she woke

up later, she found a broken window in the dining room and called police.

Officers determined that a bullet, which they said had been fired from a neighboring upper-level apartment, had caused the damage. The residents of that apartment consented to a search, and police spoke with Csech.

According to police, Csech had pointed his Remington

.30-06 rifle toward a TV and pulled the trigger, discharging one round. The trajectory sent the bullet into the neighbor’s home.

Csech, who has a valid firearm owner’s identification card, was arrested and taken to the Woodstock Police Department and then transferred to the McHenry County Jail, where he remained Friday afternoon.

Budget review planned for Tuesday • TAXES

Are You A WOMAN In BUSINESS?

Continued from page B1 Additional kilowatt hours are charged on a descending scale.

The new gas tax is set at 5 percent.

On average, households in Illinois used 770 kilowatt hours per month in 2010, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

That would translate to $4.70 a month in new taxes.

The Finance Committee

will conduct its first full review of the proposed budget for the fiscal year, which starts May 1, at its next meeting.

To me, this month always feels like a very long thirty-one day “march” through snow, sleet and driving rain. Sometimes all in one day! The past few Tuesdays have given us a reminder of how unpredictable, yet correctly forecasted, the weather can be this time of year. Even when it hasn’t been snowing, the temperatures are still at winter-esque levels. I checked and the average high temperature for this month is 47 and the low is 31. Looking at the Weather Channels forecast for the next ten days, we are going to be no where near these. Keep the mittens and boots handy.

Normally, I would do another installment of my “Things I Am Looking Forward To” list right about now. Unfortunately, I feel this time calls for a “Things I Am Not Looking Forward To” list instead. Here it goes.

the doggy door open for him. But I can’t say “no” to a face like his.

More Unpredictable Weather: I think what I find even more unpalatable about wintery March weather is the inevitable beautiful sunny 70 degree days that are peppered in among the slop. Why tempt us with a taste of the great weather to come in April and May and then just slap us in the face with three inches of snow?

Movie Drought: Still nothing at the theatre that will make the Golfer in My Life want to spend the money to see it. Hollywood, I’m begging you this time. Where are all the good movies?

The Golf Season: This is a tough one.

Part of the reason March is such a drag for me is that the Golfer is starting to get stir crazy to get back out on the course. For the sake of both of our mental health, it is a good thing when the season starts. But it takes a few weeks for me to transition into him not being around on the weekends.

What’s the best thing about this month? We are all in it together and we all know misery loves company. Just keep in mind how great April will be.

RONALD JOHN ZEGARSKI

Lee Claver 9/11/56-3/15/12

Born: July 10, 1941; in Chicago Died: March 14, 2013; in Crystal Lake CRYSTAL LAKE – Ronald John Zegarski, of Crystal Lake, passed away Thursday, March 14, 2013, of neuroendocrine pancreatic cancer at home, surrounded by his loving family at the age of 71.

Ronald fought a heroic battle with the disease for almost six years.

On July 10, 1941, Ronald was born, in Chicago, to John and Stephanie Zegarski. In 1964, Ronald married his beautiful bride and best friend, Dorothy Kwilosz.

He began his college education at the Illinois Institute of Technology where he received his bachelor’s degree followed by his master’s degree, both in electrical engineering. He then went on to receive an MBA from the University of Chicago. His career path included Motorola, vice president of engineering at BRK Electronics, and Pittway Systems where he formed and headed up its division called System Sensor as president.

Ron was a member of the Crystal Lake Country Club, where he established many lifelong friendships.

He was an avid golfer and played his best golf game during his cancer battle.

As a man of faith and member of St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church, Ron’s faith in God carried him through the suffering of his cancer. He is quoted as saying at the end of his battle that “God is my chemo” and “I can look back at the wonderful life I had filled with many blessings: my wife, my children, my grandchildren, friends, my parents, and my sisters.” He encouraged his family and friends to trust in God’s will for his life.

Though he will be deeply missed, Ron’s legacy of strong faith, integrity, generosity, and devotion to family and friends will live on.

Ron is survived by his loving wife, Dorothy; children, Michael (Patrick Porter), Nancy (Don) Wallin and Janet (Dave) Kay; grandchildren, Jacob, Samuel, Abby, Kolbe, Philomena and Cecilia Wallin, and Cassidy, Sammie, Kamila, Jared, and Adam Kay; a sister, Stephanie Zegarski Michaels; and many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents; and a sister, Rosemarie Schick.

A visitation for Ron will be from 3 to 9 p.m. with a prayer service beginning at 8 p.m. Sunday, March 17, at Davenport Family Funeral Home, 419 E. Terra Cotta Ave. (Route 176), Crystal Lake.

MINI-REVIEWS & LOCAL SHOWTIMES OF CURRENT MOVIES

Page B5 • Saturday, March 16, 2013

On screen now “The Call” H½ STARRING: Halle Berry, Evie Thompson, Abigail Breslin PLOT: When veteran 911 operator Jordan Turner receives a call from a girl who has just been abducted, she soon realizes that she must confront a killer from her past in order to save the girl’s life.

RATING: R for violence, disturbing content and some language TIME: 1 hour, 35 minutes VERDICT: “The Call” dials up a shallow thrill ride, but one efficiently peppered with your typical “don’t go in there!” moments. But what once was usual for Hollywood – reliable, popcorn-eating genre frights – isn’t so much anymore. “The Call” is a rudimentary, almost old-fashioned 90-minute escape that manages to achieve its low ambitions. – Jake

Coyle, The Associated Press

“Dead Man Down” H STARRING: Colin Farrell, Noomi Rapace, Dominic Cooper and Terrence Howard PLOT: In New York City, a crime lord’s right-hand man is seduced by one of his boss’s victims, a woman seeking retribution.

RATING: R for violence, language throughout and a scene of sexuality.

TIME: 1 hour, 58 minutes VERDICT: Suspending disbelief is a part of watching most any action film, where bullets fly like birds and mayhem explodes as easily as a shaken soda can. But even in such a contrived movie world, it’s asking far too much for us to accept that Noomi Rapace would be hounded as a “monster” for a little scarring around her left eye. It’s just one of the many silly leaps of logic taken in the lifeless “Dead Man Down,” a film that brings together two lost souls bent on vengeance. The screenplay by J. H. Wyman (“Fringe”) is squirm-inducing in its preposterous dialogue and haphazard plotting.

When Victor and Beatrice go out for dinner (shortly before she corners him about killing her assailant, a scene in which she extravagantly spins Victor’s car out of control), they describe themselves as if on a Match.com date. They each admit drinking causes them to swear, and then flatly trade two four-letter expletives. The words would be better groaned from the audience. – Christy

Lemire, The Associated Press

“A Good Day To Die Hard” H STARRING: Bruce Willis, Jai Courtney, Sebastian Koch and Mary Elizabeth Winstead PLOT: John McClane travels to Russia to help out his seemingly wayward son, Jack, only to discover Jack is a CIA operative working to prevent a nuclear-weapons heist, causing the father and son to team up against underworld forces.

RATING: R for violence and language TIME: 1 hour, 37 minutes VERDICT: It’s supposed to be a parody of itself, right? That’s the only way to explain this ridiculously over-thetop, repetitively numbing fifth film in the “Die Hard” franchise. John McClane used to be a cowboy. Now, he’s a cartoon character – specifically, Wile E. Coyote, given how many times he should be seriously injured and/or killed in this movie.

The most he suffers is a scratch here and there, and then he’s ready to pop back up again with a bemused twinkle in his eye and a wry quip. Part of the charm of this career-defining Bruce Willis’ character was the regular-guy, Reagan-era resourcefulness he represented; now, he’s weirdly superhuman. But as charismatic as Willis ordinarily is, even he can’t fool us into thinking he’s enjoying himself this time. “A Good Day to Die Hard” is pointless and joyless, a barrage of noise and chaos, an onslaught of destruction without the slightest mention of consequence. Director John Moore mistakes shaky-cam and dizzying zooms for artistic finesse in his action sequences. But the most obnoxious element of all may be the father-son feel-goodery that occurs in the midst of all this madness. You see, Willis’ unstoppable New York cop has traveled to Moscow to track “C” You At The Movies - McHenry Downtown Theatre

Jack is actually a spy working undercover to protect a government whistleblower (Sebastian Koch), and dad has arrived just in time to ruin his mission.

Now they must work together – and bond. – Christy Lemire, The Associ-

ated Press

“Identity Thief” HH STARRING: Jason Bateman, Melissa McCarthy, Amanda Peet, Robert Patrick PLOT: When a Denver businessman (Bateman) discovers that a Florida woman has stolen his identity and destroyed his credit record, he travels to the Sunshine State to confront her.

RATING: R for sexual content and language TIME: 1 hour, 52 minutes VERDICT: After a lengthy setup, this turns out to be a road comedy patterned after the “Planes, Trains and Automobiles” formula of forcing a family man to travel with a weirdo.

The attempt is misguided, because McCarthy is an unrepentant crook who doesn’t earn the sympathy that John Candy did. Many other clichés are visited along the way.

Despite the script’s slippery grasp on morality, Bateman and McCarthy still find ways to be funny and charming.

– Jeffrey Westhoff, The Northwest Herald

“The Incredible Burt Wonderstone” HH STARRING: Steve Carell, Steve Buscemi, Jim Carrey, Olivia Wilde PLOT: Las Vegas’ top magician (Carell), who also is an insufferable jerk, breaks up with his longtime partner (Buscemi), then discovers he has forgotten how to do a solo act.

Meanwhile, a guerrilla street magician (Carrey) is becoming Vegas’ hottest new star.

RATING: PG-13 for sexual content, dangerous stunts, a drug-related incident and language TIME: 1 hour, 40 minutes VERDICT: Carell takes a shot at the “egomaniacal hero needs to learn humility” story that usually falls in Will Ferrell’s wheelhouse. In fact, the plot is basically “Talledega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby” with magic instead of stock cars. Laughs are intermittent, and come because stars such as Carell, Carey and Alan Arkin are bound to be funny every so often in spite of weak material. The script recycles generic sequences, and character motivation is random.

Olivia Wilde is in the movie probably because the studio wanted more sex appeal. – Jeffrey Westhoff, The

Northwest Herald

“Jack the Giant Slayer” HHH

STARRING: Nicholas Hoult, Eleanor Tomlinson, Ewan McGregor, Stanley Tucci PLOT: After farm boy Jack (Hoult) trades the family horse for some magic beans, he accidentally grows a towering beanstalk that could reignite an ancient war between men and giants. He joins a team of brave knights to climb the beanstalk and rescue a beautiful princess (Tomlinson) from the hungry giants.

RATING: PG-13 for intense sequences of fantasy action violence, some frightening images and brief language TIME: 1 hour, 54 minutes VERDICT: Except for a few moments thrown in to gain a PG-13 rating, this is an old-fashioned family adventure fantasy along the lines of “Jason and the Argonauts” and “The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad.” Director Bryan Singer (“The X-Men”) plays the material at face value without shrinking from its corny virtues, and the cast charms by playing it straight. The CGI giants are fearsome villains, and visual effects featuring the beanstalk are imaginative. The thrill-packed finale goes on too long, though, which is a symptom of current action movies. – Jeffrey Westhoff

“The Last Stand” HHH

STARRING: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Forest Whitaker, Johnny Knoxville PLOT: The leader of a drug cartel busts out of a courthouse and speeds to the Mexican border, where the only thing in his path is a sheriff and his inexperienced staff.

RATING: R for strong, bloody violence throughout and language TIME: 1 hour, 47 minutes VERDICT: “The Last Stand” is the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie you didn’t even realize you wanted to see. This is the action superstar’s first leading role in a decade, having left acting to serve as the governor of California and whatnot, and while it may not have occurred to you to miss him during that time, it’s still surprisingly good to see him on the big screen again. He is not exactly pushing himself here. Korean director Kim Jee-woon’s American filmmaking debut turns out to be an extremely Schwarzeneggerish Schwarzenegger film, full of big, violent set pieces and broad comedy. He may look a little creaky (and facially freaky) these days, but Arnold proves he’s still game for the mayhem as he fires off rounds and tosses off one-liners, and the movie at least has the decency to acknowledge that it knows that you know that he’s old. – Christy

Lemire, The Associated Press

“Oz the Great and Powerful” HHH STARRING: James Franco, Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz PLOT: A tornado drops a two-bit carnival magician (Franco) into an enchanted land where he is mistaken for a wizard and thrust into a power struggle among three witches (Williams, Kunis, Weisz).

RATING: PG for brief mild language and sequences of action and scary images TIME: 2 hours, 10 minutes VERDICT: Sam Raimi directs this reverent prequel to 1939’s “The Wizard of Oz” with his usual verve and visual dynamism. From its opening frame, it joins the handful of live-action films worth seeing in 3-D. The first half of the story is superior, particularly when the wizard gains a pair of traveling companions, a timid flying monkey voiced by Zach Braff and a feisty little china doll. These are Gollum-quality CGI characters. When the story shifts to action, spectacle and special effects, it is still dazzling to watch, but it loses heart (and perhaps some courage and brains).

“Safe Haven” HH STARRING: Julianne Hough, Josh Duhamel, Cobie Smulders PLOT: A young woman with a mysterious past lands in Southport, N.C., where her bond with a widower forces her to confront the dark secret that haunts her.

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

Reporter

“Side Effects” HHH STARRING: Rooney Mara, Channing Tatum, Jude Law PLOT: Emily and Martin are a successful New York couple whose world unravels when a new drug prescribed

by Emily’s psychiatrist – intended to treat anxiety – has unexpected side effects.

RATING: R for sexuality, nudity, violence and language TIME: 1 hour, 46 minutes VERDICT: If “Side Effects” is indeed Steven Soderbergh’s final film, as he’s said it will be after toying with the notion of retirement for a couple of years now, then intriguingly it feels like he’s coming full circle in some ways to the film that put him on the map: the trailblazing, 1989 indie “sex, lies and videotape.” Both are lurid genre exercises, laid bare. Both focus on the intertwined lives of four central figures, including a scene in which one of the men interviews one of the women on video, hoping to unearth a hidden truth. Both movies are about danger, secrets and manipulation, filled with characters who aren’t what they initially seem, all of which Soderbergh depicts with his typically cool detachment. The complexity of emotion, confusion and loss at the film’s start gives way to some acrobatic trickery by the end, but “Side Effects” is never less than gripping or entertaining. Mara, who showed such fierce intelligence in David Fincher’s “The Social Network” and “The Girl

Christy Lemire, The Associated Press

“21 and Over” HH½ STARRING: Miles Teller, Justin Chon, Johnathan Keltz PLOT: The night before his big medical school exam, a promising student celebrates his 21st birthday with his two best friends.

RATING: R for crude and sexual content, pervasive language, some graphic nudity, drugs and drinking TIME: 1 hour, 33 minutes VERDICT: If you liked “The Hangover” but felt like it needed more projectile vomit, stampeding buffaloes and naughty sorority pledges being

spanked, then “21 & Over” is the feel-good, feel-bad movie for you. The writers of that 2009 smash hit, Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, wrote the script here, too, and direct for the first time. Comparatively, it is simultaneously amped-up and slapped together. It is both younger and dumber but also even more equal opportunity in choosing its targets; the same people who get tooled on also rise up and enjoy a certain amount of empowerment. Sometimes this balancing act works and sometimes it doesn’t.

“21 & Over” is at its best when it’s riding an all-night, boozy high, when it captures a sensation of idiotic invincibility. When it tries to be about something – growing up and being responsible but still maintaining the fun and friendships of youth – it feels a bit strained. – Christy Lemire, The

ADVICE

Page B6 • Saturday, March 16, 2013

Boyfriend’s sense of ownership may extend beyond the mail Dear Abby: My boyfriend and I are in our 20s and have been dating for five years.

We’re renovating a home that we will live in once it’s completed. We have never lived together before.

During the renovation, I have come to the house to find he has opened packages that were addressed to me.

The first time, I didn’t say anything because I thought he might have thought it was his.

After the second and third times, I mentioned – nicely – that they weren’t his to open.

He claims he “knew” they were things for the house, which is why he opened them.

I was raised that people’s mail and packages were theirs to open, and I would never think of opening anything sent to him. This is an issue for me, but he brushes it off.

He feels entitled to open my packages since it is his home, too. How can I make it clear that I expect him to respect my personal mail when he thinks this is no big deal? – No Respect In New York Dear No Respect: If I were you, I’d be less concerned about his opening your packages and far more concerned that when you tell him something bothers you, he ignores it. His disregard for your feelings is a red flag.

Your boyfriend appears to think that what is yours is

being “overprotective and paranoid.”

Am I right to put my foot down? I’m sick and tired of fighting over this. – Not Para-

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips his. Is the reverse also true?

(I’ll bet it’s not.) Does he also check your phone messages and email? Does this extend to any other areas of your relationship?

If this was only about his opening your mail, I would advise you to open a post office box in your name only.

However, if the answer to any of my questions is yes, I think you should take a sober look at the entire relationship.

Dear Abby: My mother-inlaw is addicted to prescription painkillers and has been for more than 10 years. She went to rehab once, but relapsed and hasn’t been able to get clean since. She has tried to quit on her own, but ends up having great emotional stress and slight psychotic episodes and starts again.

My problem is, my husband sees her addiction as “manageable.” He sees no harm in having her watch our 3-year-old daughter, even though he has told me he has seen her nod off with her eyes rolled back like drug addicts do, usually during the afternoon. When we argue about this, he becomes defensive and attacks my family for

noid In Pennsylvania Dear Not Paranoid: Continue putting your foot down. A person whose eyes have rolled back after taking drugs or alcohol hasn’t “nodded off.” The person has lost consciousness and PASSED OUT. In your mother-in-law’s case, it means while she may be physically present, she is completely unavailable to supervise your child. Leaving your daughter under the care of a person in this condition is child endangerment. That’s why you can’t allow it.

Dear Abby: Would you please settle a friendly debate between me and my friends?

Is it ever appropriate to use your cellphone to update social media or send a text message during a church sermon, or is it still considered a rude act? – Old-Fashioned In

Kentucky Dear Old-Fashioned: It’s still considered rude. In a house of worship, we are supposed to be thinking about more important things than our social schedule, our Facebook page or who tweeted us.

Right level of vitamin D is source of controversy Dear Dr. K: I’ve read a lot about vitamin D deficiency in the news. How much do I need? Where can I get it?

Dear Reader: I try to make things clear, but the value of vitamin D supplements is complicated. Here it is in a nutshell.

We get most of the vitamins we need in our diet.

However, vitamin D is found naturally in only a few foods.

Fatty fish is the main food source. Milk doesn’t naturally contain vitamin D, but it’s fortified with it. So are many juices and breakfast cereals. (I’ve put a table of food sources of vitamin D on my website.)

We get most of our vitamin D from sunlight: When sun strikes the skin, certain cells make vitamin D. But people get a lot less sunlight than they used to.

It’s not just the concern about skin cancer; it’s mainly the fact that most of us spend much less time outdoors than our ancestors did.

Throughout most of human history, humans spent much of the daytime outdoors. At the turn of the 20th century, more than 90 percent of U.S. citizens lived and worked on

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff farms.

We didn’t know about vitamin D at the turn of the 20th century and couldn’t measure blood levels. So we don’t know for sure, but most experts think that our blood levels of vitamin D today are likely much lower than our ancestors’.

Is that a problem? We know from epidemiologic studies that the risk of getting many important diseases – autoimmune diseases, heart disease, certain types of cancer – is greater among people whose blood levels of vitamin D are lower. Few people dispute that.

Here’s where the controversy begins. It is clear taking vitamin D supplements can raise your blood levels. But it’s by no means clear this is good for your health. Most experts agree if your blood levels are lower than 20 ng/ml, you tend to develop thinning of the bones, and that taking vitamin D supplements can help protect

you. But the value of vitamin D supplements for protecting you against other diseases is uncertain.

The current recommendation for vitamin D is 600 international units (IU) a day for people up to age 70, and 800 IU per day for those older than 70. Vitamin D comes in two forms: D3 and D2. If you take supplements, some experts recommend choosing one that contains D3.

Here’s the bottom line, at least for me: Get your vitamin D from foods. Avoid too much sun exposure, which can increase your risk of skin cancer. If your blood level of vitamin D is lower than 30 ng/ml, then I recommend you talk to your doctor about taking at least 1,000 IU a day.

Some of my colleagues disagree with this advice.

Nevertheless, this is what I do myself. Studies are under way that will tell me whether I’m right or wrong. I’ll keep you informed of new developments.

‘Smash’ star debuts CD THINGS

Last week, singer-actress Megan Hilty wrapped her second, and possibly final, season of the TV musical “Smash.”

But no time for curtain calls – a day later she made her Carnegie Hall headlining debut to a sold-out house.

She spent this week racing around New York, getting the word out of her first solo album, “It Happens All the Time,” which was released Tuesday.

“It’s been a whirlwind,” Hilty said.

The Broadway veteran doesn’t ease on down the wellworn Broadway-diva CD-debut road, usually leading to a set of classic standards. “While I love those albums,” Hilty said, “I wanted to do something unexpected.”

Carole King musical eyes Broadway stage A musical based on the woman behind such pop standards as “It’s Too Late,” ‘’You’ve Got a Friend” and “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman” hopes to make it to Broadway.

Producers on Friday announced plans to take “Beautiful: The Carole Carole King King Musical” to the Great White Way by spring 2014. The story is written by Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Douglas McGrath.

Selena Gomez is in transition “A little awkward” is how Selena Gomez describes her transition from Disney girl to Disney girl gone wild in the new R-rated independent film “Spring Breakers,” in which she plays a bikini-clad and heavily armed college student bent on a good time with three friends and some drugs, sex and violence.

Elton John cancels show Elton John has canceled a concert set for Friday night in Birmingham.

The British singer and piano player was supposed to perform at the Birmingham Jefferson Convention Complex Arena. Ticketmaster announced the cancellation on its website hours before.

Officials at the arena say medical reasons are being cited for the cancellation, but they don’t have details.

“I am getting a little bit older, so I wanted to push myself and kind of get into a little bit more of an indie world. And it was a really great experience for me. And at the same time it has been, of course, a little awkward, but great,” the 20-year-old Gomez said Thursday at the film’s Hollywood premiere.

Known for her role on Disney’s “Wizards of Waverly Place,” Gomez actually began moving to a faster track as Justin Bieber’s now ex-girlfriend.

“Honestly, it’s been a weird transition. You never really know what’s right or wrong and you can only do the best you can,” she said.

Directed by art-house favorite Harmony Korine and also starring James Franco and Vanessa Hudgens of Disney’s “High School Musical” fame, “Spring Breakers” follows four young women on a Florida coast vacation romp they financed with a diner robbery.

Some of Gomez’s young fans were gathered outside the ArcLight Theatre hoping to catch a glimpse of the star. But she warned them not to go inside.

“I think they’re really here to see me. I don’t think they’re here to see the movie,” she said. “This was a little bit different. So yes, they shouldn’t go see this.”

Yo! Rocky’s house is for sale Want to live like Rocky Balboa? The Italian Stallion’s house is on the market.

The home in South Philadelphia was featured in the 1979 movie “Rocky II.” In the sequel to the Oscar-winning smash, the fictional boxer played by Sylvester Stallone buys the house after he loses a bout to Apollo Creed but gains fame.

The 1,036-square-foot row house has three bedrooms and 1 1/2 bathrooms. Asking price: $139,000.

5 invented movie to hide tax fraud The clue was in the title.

In some ways “A Landscape of Lies” was a typical indie film, with a tiny budget, a B-list cast and an award from an American film festival.

What made it special is that it was created solely to cover up a huge tax fraud.

Five people in Britain face jail sentences after being convicted this week of attempting to bilk the government of $4.2 million in a moviemaking scam reminiscent of Academy Award-winning hit “Argo” – without the heroic hostage rescue.

Prosecutors and tax authorities say the fraudsters claimed to be producing a made-in-Britain movie with unnamed A-list actors and a 19 million-pound budget supplied by a Jordanian firm.

In fact, officials say, the project was a sham, set up to claim almost 1.5 million pounds in goods and services tax for work that had not been done, as well as 1.3 million pounds under a government program that allows filmmakers to claim back up to 25 percent of their expenditure as tax relief.

Monica Maschak – mmaschak@shawmedia.com

Jordan Turner, a 6-foot-3 senior guard, finished his career No. 2 in Woodstock history with 1,447 points. He averaged 17.9 points a game this season and set the Blue Streaks’ record for career steals as Woodstock finished 19-11 and won its first regional title since 2000.

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com oodstock boys basketball coach Alex Baker recalled a conversation with his assistants during the fall before the Blue Streaks started practice.

The subject was Jordan Turner, Woodstock’s 6-foot-3 senior guard and leading scorer from the previous season, who again would be the player who stirred the Streaks.

“I told them I didn’t think I’ve ever had a player who had as good a sophomore year and junior year as Jordan had, and then improved so much his senior year,” Baker said.

“A lot of guys have success and take their foot off the gas a little bit.”

Not Turner. He kept the pedal to the metal. Turner was more driven

The Turner File A quick look at some of Northwest Herald Player of the Year Jordan Turner’s numbers and their rank in Woodstock Blue Streaks history.

Season points: 537 (No. 4) Career points: 1,447 (No. 2) Season free throws: 125 (No. 2) Career free throws: 337 (No. 1) Season steals: 80 (No. 1) Career steals: 177 (No. 1) than ever, working on every aspect of his game and finding another level for his final high school season.

Turner hit shots like he had before, but he also looked to set up others. He gobbled up steals on defense at 2.7 a game. And Woodstock,

for the first time since 2001, had a winning season.

For Turner’s performance and leadership, he is the Northwest Herald Boys Basketball Player of the Year, selected by the sports staff with input from area coaches. Crystal Lake Central’s Corban Murphy and Hampshire’s Tyler Crater also received strong consideration for the honor.

Turner, Murphy and Crater are joined on the All-Area first team by Dundee-Crown’s Brandon Rodriguez and Huntley’s Bryce Only.

The second team is comprised of Huntley’s Amanze Egekeze, who missed half the season while recovering from knee surgery, Hampshire’s Shane Hernandez, D-C’s

For much of the offseason at Winona (Minn.) State University, Chase Blazier spent time working on a pitch he has yet to throw in a baseball game.

“I worked all through the fall on a circle changeup,” said Blazier, a Harvard graduate. “But I was throwing it so it was sort of like a screwball.”

Blazier already had a “split change” in his rep- Chase Blazier ertoire, which he The Winona said has the action (Minn.) State of a split-finger pitcher is 3-0 fastball, dropping with a 1.06 rapidly as it nears ERA. the batter, while maintaining the slower velocity of a changeup.

“I wasn’t throwing the [circle changeup] very well, so a week before our first game, I went back to the split change,” he said.

For Blazier, a sophomore who pitched last season at McHenry County College, the pitch has paid impressive dividends this spring.

In three starts for NCAA Division II Winona, Blazier is 3-0 with a 1.06 ERA for the Warriors (6-6).

“It’s been totally unexpected,” Blazier said. “I’ve just been pounding the (strike) zone, and I’ve had a really good defense behind me.”

Blazier’s control has been impressive. In 17 innings, he has not allowed a walk while striking out 10 batters.

“I’ve always believed in myself, but I am a little surprised,” Blazier said. “I didn’t think I’d start out this way.”

Blazier credited his one season at MCC with improving his mental approach to pitching.

“Just being at the college level really helps you mature,” he said.

“I was a bit of a hothead in high school.”

One visit to the mound from MCC coach Jared Wacker helped Blazier amend his ways.

“In my second or third game, I got a little upset,” Blazier said.

“Things weren’t going my way.

Jared came out and told me to knock that stuff off.”

Blazier said he now takes note when he sees others lose their composure.

Indiana savors basketball revival CHICAGO – Christian Watford remembers the dark days of Indiana basketball all too well.

That’s why it feels so good for the senior forward and his teammates to be in the national spotlight.

“We’ve been on both sides of the fence,” Watford said Friday as he scanned his team’s locker room at the United Center. “That whole growing process makes us tougher.

It fuels us at the end of the day.”

It could fuel Indiana all the way toward its first NCAA championship in a generation.

Everybody knows that the Hoosiers are going dancing, but they’re still working hard to perfect their steps. They dominated Illinois for an 80-64 win in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten tournament, and a victory today against Wisconsin would match Indiana’s highest win total

VIEWS Tom Musick (28) since 1993.

Some of the current Hoosiers weren’t alive in 1993.

None of them was alive in 1987, the year of Indiana’s fifth and most recent championship.

Welcome to the rebirth of one of college basketball’s proudest programs.

No one is throwing chairs a la Bob Knight, but fans are throwing around big money in hopes of witnessing a part of history.

At last check, lower-level tickets for today’s game were starting at more than $200 apiece online, while upper-deck seats were starting at more than $100 apiece.

The ticket market outside of the United Center was particularly onesided Friday.

Everywhere, fans dressed in Hoosier red raised their fingers and barked out numbers.

“Need two!”

“Need one!”

“Need three!”

Many must have found a way into the stadium, which was filled with red from the floor level to the top row of the upper deck. Sure, there were pockets of orange for the Fighting Illini, but Indiana fans filled anywhere from two-thirds to three-fourths of the building.

“We love it,” Indiana junior forward Will Sheehey said. “We want them to keep coming.”

They will, as long as the Hoosiers keep winning.

MIXED MARTIAL ARTS

BIG TEN TOURNAMENT ROUNDUP

Jeff Curran sets XFO bout

Wisconsin rolls on

CL fighter will headline card May 11 in East Dundee

By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@shawmedia.com Jeff Curran hasn’t fought for 10 months, but he has spent most of that time on the phone with his management company attempting to plot his next move.

For Curran, the 35-year-old mixed-martial arts fighter, not having a logical next step in place has grown tiresome.

But his long-awaited return to the cage soon will become a reality. Curran announced Friday he will fight 22-year-old Josh Killion on May 11 at Premier Banquets in East Dundee, headlining an Xtreme Fighting Organization card.

Curran founded XFO to give local fighters an opportunity to compete and funnel them to bigger promotions. Curran has won his previous three XFO bouts and hopes to use the opportunity not only to help local fighters, but to get himself back on a winning track.

With his next fight set, Curran figures this likely will be

the start of the final chapter of his fighting career. Curran announced the fight on his Twitter feed Friday night, referring to Killion as “the victim.”

“When you put somebody like me on [the card], it’s not Jeff Curran a small show anymore,” Curran said. “My career has been too good to me in that overall sense, and so for me fighting (in the event), in an organization that I launched, I love that.

“I love the local feel.”

Curran has a career record of 33-15, but has lost his past two fights, which led the UFC to not renew his contract.

Both losses were the result of unanimous decisions. All but one of Curran’s 11 losses since 2002 have come via decision.

Curran lost by submission (guillotine choke) to Urijah Faber in a 2007 world title fight.

He faces Killion, who has

a 6-3 professional record and who has won three of his past four fights. That string includes a second-round submission victory in April over Joey Diehl, the former Jacobs wrestler who now is trained by Curran in Crystal Lake.

For Curran, returning to UFC remains a top priority, but the veteran fighter, who turns 36 in September, said he’s been told by UFC officials he needs to string together some impressive victories before he’d be invited back to the sport’s top outfit.

“They always just said that I’m a victim of my own record and my own success because I don’t get beat,” Curran said.

“Somewhere, some judge dictated my future on opinion. So I don’t get down on myself too much. I just get frustrated that, ‘Man, when is it going to be my opportunity?’

“So I’m just staying the course and pressing forward and putting things in place and eventually, you just have to let the cards fall.”

Tune in for Selection Sunday Northwest Herald sports copy editor Kevin Murphy picks his top sports events to watch this weekend:

DON’T MISS IT Pro hockey: Blackhawks at Dallas, 7 p.m. today, CSN OK, so the Hawks finally are on a winning streak again. Seriously, Hawks fans have been spoiled this season. The Hawks (22-2-2) get another somewhat easier opponent in Dallas tonight.

The Stars (12-11-3) are fifth in the Pacific Division and lost to the Hawks, 3-2 in overtime, earlier this season. This game is the second in a four-game road trip for the Hawks.

Goaltending was much better against Columbus on Thursday night. After the Hawks gave up 12 goals during a two-game losing streak, Corey Crawford gave up only one goal to the Blue Jackets and stopped two of three shootout shots.

Oladipo dazzles with 360 dunk • MUSICK Continued from page C1 Fans who arrive will be treated to terrific defense, constant ball movement and at least a couple of NBA-caliber players. Sophomore center Cody Zeller is a dependable 7-footer who should have a long career at the next level, while junior guard Victor Oladipo is a tenacious defender who can make electrifying plays on offense.

Oladipo’s 360-degree slam in the final minutes against Illinois was something to behold.

To finish a four-on-zero break, Oladipo starred in a one-man dunk contest.

He timed his steps, soared toward the rim, twisted his body and threw down a dunk that earned 10s from here to Evansville.

“It was just a last-second thought,” Oladipo said. “I thought about it while I was in the air. …

“And, no, that’s not my best one.”

Yeesh.

Perhaps most impressive about Indiana is that outcomes do not hinge on one or two players. From pass-first guards to key role players, everyone seems to play a part in the group’s success.

Coach Alex Baker guided Woodstock to a 19-11 record this season a 14-win improvement over last season.

NORTHWEST HERALD BOYS BASKETBALL COACH OF THE YEAR

Baker brought out best in Blue Streaks Woodstock went from 5 to 19 wins in 1 year

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com The approach remained pretty much the same, although the expectations were much higher.

Woodstock had a talented senior group returning, joined by a junior big man who could make a significant difference.

But history was against the Blue Streaks, who had not produced a winning boys basketball team since 2001 or grabbed a regional championship plaque since 2000.

Woodstock coach Alex Baker was rewarded for his diligence and perseverance. The Blue Streaks banded together, determined to be much better than their 5-23 record a year ago.

The attitude, work and preparation propelled Woodstock in just the manner it hoped. The Streaks finished 19-11, won their first regional title in 13 years and Baker, because of their success, is the Northwest Herald Boys Basketball Coach of the Year.

The honor is chosen by the sports staff with input from local coaches. Crystal Lake Central’s Rich Czeslawski, whose team had its third consecutive 20-plus-win season, and Hampshire’s Bob Barnett also received strong consideration.

Those teams tied for the Fox Valley Conference Fox Division championship.

“I give all the credit to the

“He’s deinitely reversed our attitude toward the basketball program from where it’s been.”

Jordan Turner Woodstock basketball player, on coach Alex Baker boys and what they did,” said Baker, in his fifth year at Woodstock. “They bought into what we were trying to do and took us where we needed to get.”

The players, however, know how crucial Baker’s leadership was.

“He’s played a tremendous role,” guard Jordan Turner said. “In my freshman or sophomore year, we wouldn’t have had the participation in the offseason weightlifting that we had. He’s definitely reversed our attitude toward the basketball program from where it’s been. He’s done a good job fixing how our team gets looked at.”

Turner and fellow seniors Andy Buhrow, Jack McCoy, Keeondae Benjamin and Brad Kaufmann all played key roles.

Center Damian Stoneking, a 6-foot-7 junior who was with the team briefly last season, was a vital piece to the puzzle. Baker talked with Stoneking last spring and they both agreed he should play. Stoneking was the force inside the Streaks hoped he would be.

“There are a few things you learn every year [as a coach], just like you expect the kids to get better,” Baker said. “A big thing is we finally have a coaching staff, on all levels, that’s stayed the same, and I think that’s making a big difference. There is consistency on all levels – feeder, middle school, freshman and sophomore levels – and that’s starting to pay off.”

Buhrow said the players enjoy being around Baker.

“You can talk to him like a friend, not just about basketball, but other things,” Buhrow said. “He definitely pushed us hard in practice and had us do more in the offseason. Our camps were better with more people coming to them. We thought we could do well.”

The next step will be remaining a consistent winner, although the future looks bright. Returning with Stoneking will be 6-3 senior Mitch Kohley, 6-3 sophomore Mason Sutter and 6-6 freshman Nick Kubiak.

“We have a pretty good idea what we’ll look like down low,” Baker said. “We graduate four guards who played a lot of minutes. I really like what we have to work with. We have great kids in the program. By Thursday after we got beat [in the Freeport Sectional] they were in the weightroom getting themselves prepared. Our young guys got a taste of where we can go.”

NCAA D-III coaches scout senior • TURNER Continued from page C1 Dylan Kissack, Crystal Lake South’s Austin Rogers and Central’s Jake Vanscoyoc.

“Last year, I had a great pull-up shot, but I didn’t have as many assists and steals,” Turner said. “I wanted to work on creating for others and just all-around dribbling and shooting.”

Turner scored 17.9 points a game, second to Crater in the area, and helped the Streaks (19-11) improve by 14 victories from last season.

They also won the Class 3A Woodstock North Regional, their first such title since 2000.

“I’m most proud of us finally getting the [not winning a] regional off our back,” Turner said.

“That was definitely a big one for Woodstock basketball. It was a big win when we went to Crystal Lake Central’s house and beat them when they were 13-1. That was a very good high point of our season.”

Turner held the ball the final 20 seconds of that game and pulled up and drained a 16-footer for a 54-53 win. The Streaks did not keep pace with Central and Hampshire, which shared the Fox Valley Conference Fox Division title, but they still were the area’s most improved team.

“It was fun to see [Turner] progress since the sixth grade,” Streaks senior guard Andy Buhrow said. “He improved his passing definitely. He trusted everybody else more and his shot decisions were a lot better than in the past.

I love playing with him. I wouldn’t trade him for anybody else.”

Turner, a Class 3A All-State honorable mention selection by The Associated Press, had NCAA Division III coaches at almost every game. He has narrowed his list to Augustana, Illinois Wesleyan and North Central.

Baker was thrilled to see how Turner added to his all-around game. Turner’s 80 steals are a Woodstock school record and his 177 career steals eclipsed Marty Dello’s school record.

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Woodstock’s Jordan Turner earned Class 3A All-State honorable mention from The Associated Press.

“A lot of stuff [Turner] does gets overlooked for his scoring numbers,” Baker said. “What he did from a leadership standpoint, getting other guys to buy in, was as important as what he did himself. It meant a lot for his performance and for ours as a team.”

Turner, a four-year varsity player, finished No. 2 on the Streaks’ career scoring list (1,447) behind Dan Hill (1,791).

“When I came up as a freshman, I was (the) sixth man,” Turner said. “Then, I really started to contribute as a sophomore. I realized I had the potential to do some really great things and put in a lot of work. We had an enormous season from where we were [5-23] to a 14-win turnaround. Especially for Woodstock that hasn’t had a winning team in a while. I’m pretty overwhelmed that I was lucky enough to play a part in it.”

Loyola (Md.) University volleyball coach Jake Lawrence liked what he saw in video highlights of Micah Duzey’s ability.

Lawrence must have been even more impressed with the Cary-Grove senior’s diligence. Duzey pored over websites for the better part of Micah Duzey a year, studying rosters in search of college teams that would have liberos graduating.

It goes with the position.

“For my position, it’s hard to get scholarship money,” said Duzey, who is 5-foot-5. “I have a [National Collegiate Scouting Association] profile, but one day I started looking through schools and conferences. I looked at Loyola’s roster and saw they were in need of a libero.”

Duzey emailed and called Lawrence, who called back a day later, interested. Duzey committed to the Greyhounds two weeks ago and soon will sign her NCAA national letter of intent. She will receive about 75 percent her first two years, then a full scholarship the final two.

“I saw that they had two liberos, one was a sophomore and one was a senior,” Duzey said.

Duzey considered D-I South Carolina State and NAIA Clarke University in Dubuque, Iowa. She currently is playing club volleyball with Sky High Volleyball Club’s 18 White team.

McClaughry to IllinoisSpringfield: McHenry shortstop Alex McClaughry, a four-year varsity player, will attend D-II Illinois-Springfield next year to play softball.

McClaughry said she made the initial contact through

“I looked at Loyola’s roster and saw they were in need of a libero.”

Micah Duzey Cary-Grove volleyball player email with Prairie Stars coach Matt Mundell.

“I was emailing coaches and getting my name out there,” McClaughry said. “[UIS] emailed me back and we were talking for a while.

[Mundell] came out and saw me at a showcase tournament in St. Louis.”

That was in the fall with McClaughry’s travel team, McHenry County Chaos. She signed with the Prairie Stars in the fall signing period.

“It’s a great program for softball,” McClaughry said.

“The coach is great. And academics-wise, I’ll get into their honors program.”

McClaughry was a Northwest Herald All-Area honorable-mention selection last season.

Gators moving on: Crystal Lake South first baseman Max Meitzler, a Northwest Herald All-Area first-team selection last season, will play at NAIA Clarke University in Dubuque, Iowa. Two other Gators, utility player Tommy Gaede and pitcher Josh Fruhauf, also finalized their college plans to play and attend NAIA schools.

Gaede will play at PurdueCalumet. South coach Brian Bogda calls Gaede a player who gives the team flexibility with his ability to play third base or outfield. He hit .264 with nine RBIs and 15 runs last season, and Bogda will look at him as the Gators’ No. 2 hitter this season.

Fruhauf, a right-hander, will play at Iowa Wesleyan College. He was 1-1 pitching mainly out of the bullpen last season and will have an expanded role in the rotation this spring.

Youel stays perfect in singles tennis at NIU • ON CAMPUS Continued from page C1 “Now I see guys from other schools that we play doing it,” he said.

While Blazier has been a model of efficiency on the mound, he credited Winona’s coaches with getting the most from their pitching staff in workouts.

“I like the way we conduct our practices,” he said. “At most schools, the pitchers are there with the hitters and we just sit around. Here, we get in, we do our work and we get out. It’s streamlined. You don’t come in and do [a drill], then sit around for 40 minutes before you do something else.”

Red-hot Huskie Youel: NIU freshman women’s tennis player Nelle Youel improved to 16-0 this season at No. 1 singles with a straight-set victory Wednesday in the Huskies’ 7-0 win at Emporia (Kan.) State.

The victory helped NIU improve to 14-2, which is the most dual-meet wins in a season since 1997. In that season, the Huskies finished 15-9.

Youel, a Crystal Lake Central graduate, also won at No. 1 doubles in Kansas to improve to 15-1 in doubles with teammate Arantza De La Torre.

Super Ranger Slivka: Johnsburg grad Danielle Slivka was named a second-team All-Great Lakes Valley Conference choice in women’s basketball this season.

A junior forward at D-II Wisconsin-Parkside, Slivka led the Rangers (20-9) with 7.4 rebounds a game while contributing 8.7 points a game.

Slivka was Parkside’s leading rebounder in 19 games and had a season-best 12 rebounds

Feb. 21 against Saint Joseph’s College.

Parkside earned an NCAA tournament bid this season for the fourth consecutive year.

The Rangers are a No. 7 seed in an eight-team regional this weekend in Ashland, Ohio.

Oakland honoree Jacoby: Prairie Ridge grad Nolan Jacoby was named Summit League Baseball Player of the Week on Monday after batting .385 last week for D-I Oakland (Mich.) University.

Jacoby, a senior catcher for the Golden Grizzlies, went 4 for 5 with three doubles in a 6-4 victory March 9 against Ohio. Jacoby had two runs scored in the win and drove in a run.

For the week, he posted four doubles and a .692 slugging percentage.

Jacoby, who also has seen time at first base this season, is batting .263 with a teamhigh six doubles for Oakland (2-8).

Goalie Dierking recognized: DIII Lake Forest College junior women’s hockey goaltender Stacey Dierking was named an honorable mention All-Northern Collegiate Hockey Association selection last month.

Dierking, a Crystal Lake Central grad, had a 12-5 record in goal and a .938 save percentage for the Foresters (15-7-4).

She had a 1.71 goals-against average.

CUBS 7, JAPAN 5

Baez homers twice for Cubs in victory The ASSOCIATED PRESS

The White Sox’s Dayan Viciedo (right) is greeted by Conor Gillaspie (left) and Angel Sanchez after Viciedo’s grand slam against the Cubs in the fourth inning of a spring training game Friday in Glendale, Ariz.

WHITE SOX 15, CUBS 3

Viciedo lifts Sox over Cubs The ASSOCIATED PRESS GLENDALE, Ariz. – Dayan Viciedo impressed his manager and teammates with an opposite-field grand slam to right-center field in the White Sox’s 15-3 victory over the Cubs on Friday.

“He’s special when he starts hitting the ball over there like that,” manager Robin Ventura said.

Viciedo, the 24-year-old left fielder nicknamed “Tank” for his powerful 5-foot-11, 230-pound build, drove in two more runs with a double to give him six RBIs. The only out he made was on a hard liner to first, which Ventura likes seeing. He wants Viciedo to use the whole field and not pull everything.

“We can keep him right there,” Ventura said. “I think that’s the fight you have with young guys he wants to pull everything. But somebody like him, he’s strong enough to take it over there and put up some big numbers.”

Viciedo’s slam against reliever Hector Rondon landed halfway up the lawn seating beyond the wall.

Dewayne Wise and Jordan Danks also homered, and Gavin Floyd al-

lowed one run over 5 1/3 innings as the Sox beat their crosstown rival for the second time in two games this preseason.

Wise homered for the third time this spring, and Paul Konerko raised his average to .394 with a single and a double. Konerko also walked and scored two runs.

“Guys are getting closer, and want them feeling pretty good swinging the bat,” Ventura said.

“Even though we are missing (right fielder Alex) Rios and (center fielder Alejandro) De Aza, we are still swinging it pretty good.”

Rios and De Aza, who figure to bat third and first, respectively, are playing in the World Baseball Classic. Wise and Danks have benefitted with extra playing time in the spring. Danks drove in five runs.

Floyd, an important piece in the middle of the Sox’s starting rotation, did not walk a batter and struck out five.

“Everything was working pretty good today,” Floyd said. “I threw some changeups in there that were pretty good and I was using everything, so that’s a good place to be.

Working both sides of the plate. It

Bulls roll at Golden State

was fun.”

Cubs starter Scott Feldman got roughed up for seven runs on seven hits over 3 2/3 innings.

Cubs catcher Donier Navarro was 2 for 3 with an RBI, and right fielder Nate Schierholtz was 2-for-4 with an RBI. Minor leaguer Andreoli hit a two-run homer against Sox right-hander Dylan Axelrod in the ninth inning. Axelrod, who gave up two runs over three innings, had allowed one run over his first eight innings.

Notes: Pitching coach Don Cooper did not rule out the possibility of Danks breaking camp in the rotation, although he said Danks (11.34 ERA) needs to progress in his final three starts of the spring. Sox C Tyler Flowers is day-to-day with a stiff back. Flowers was a late scratch in favor of Hector Gimenez. ... Sox right-hander Jesse Crain, who has made one appearance this spring because of a groin strain, must feel like a marked man. He pitched in a game (against minor leaguers) for the first time since the injury and was struck on the right hip by a line drive. Crain finished his inning and is OK, trainer Herm Schneider said.

HEAT 107, BUCKS 94

Heat make it 21 wins in row

The Bulls’ Joakim Noah shoots over the Golden State Warriors’ Stephen Curry during the first half Friday night in Oakland, Calif. The Bulls won, 113-95. Read about the game at NWHerald.com.

MILWAUKEE – LeBron James and Chris Bosh each scored 28 points, and the Miami Heat made it 21 straight wins, beating the Milwaukee Bucks, 107-94, on Friday night.

Only three other teams have won 20 in a row in one season, and the Heat now trail just the 197172 Los Angeles Lakers (33) and the 2007-08 Houston Rockets (22) after moving ahead of the 1970-71 Bucks.

They withstood an early scare when Dwyane Wade walked to the locker room with a neck strain after crashing to the court. Miami led by as much as 17 in the third quarter, then withstood a push by the Bucks to remain unbeaten since a loss at Indiana on Feb. 1.

Miami next plays Sunday at Toronto, where the winning streak began Feb. 3.

Bosh hit from all angles and was 12 of 16 in the game, nailing two 3-pointers. He even converted a four-point play that made it 67-53 about five minutes into the third quarter.

James was his usual dominant self, and Wade finished with 20 points as the Heat avenged a loss at Milwaukee in late December.

Ersan Ilyasova led Milwaukee with 26 points and a season-high 17 rebounds. Brandon Jennings scored 21 but was 6 of 15 from the field, and the Bucks shot just over 37 percent. Monta Ellis struggled, finishing with seven points after scoring 26 in the previous game at Washington.

MESA, Ariz. – Javier Baez homered twice, including a two-run shot in the bottom of the ninth that gave the Cubs a 7-5 win over Japan on Friday.

The shortstop prospect who played in the high Class A Florida State League last season finished 2 for 4 with a walk and three runs. He homered in the seventh and then followed up with the winning hit off Takeru Imamura.

Sho Nakata, who had three hits, and Hayato Sakamoto each hit tworun home runs as the two-time World Baseball Classic champions prepared for the event’s semifinals in San Francisco.

Cubs left-hander Travis Wood allowed five runs, 4 earned, and seven hits in his 4 2/3 innings. He struck out four.

The Cubs jumped out to an early lead in the first when Alfonso Soriano hit a sacrifice fly, Dave Sappelt had an RBI double and third baseman Josh Vitter had an RBI single.

Cub prospect Dan Vogelbach singled in the tying run in the eighth inning before Baez’s heroics in the ninth after third baseman Christian Villanueva doubled to start the inning. Shinnosuke Abe had two doubles and a RBI for Japan to join Sakamoto with two hits each.

Notes: Cubs third baseman Ian Stewart (quad) saw his first action

Prospect Almora injured Prized Cubs prospect Albert Almora, who potentially was ticketed to begin the season with the Kane County Cougars, has broken a bone in his hand, according to reports. The outfielder is expected to miss three to four weeks of baseball activities before rehabbing and is forecast to return to games in late May. Cubs manager Dale Sveum told reporters the injury is “not a career problem or anything like that.”

Almora, 18, was the sixth overall pick in June’s Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft. He batted .321 with two home runs and 19 RBIs in 33 games between Rookie League Arizona and Short-A Boise. Cougars manager Mark Johnson managed Boise to the Northwest League championship series in 2012.

The Cougars are set to open the season against Quad Cities at 6:30 p.m. April 4 at Fifth Third Bank Ballpark.

– From staff, wire reports Thursday in a B game. He said felt tight later that night but felt great Friday, which was a rest day. He was unsure when he’d appear in Cactus League game but still feels he can be ready by Opening Day. . . . Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo is expected back in the lineup today after returning from World Baseball Classic action with Italy.

Puerto Rico players celebrate Friday after defeating the United States, 4-3, during a second-round elimination game of the World Baseball Classic in Miami.

WORLD BASEBALL CLASSIC: PUERTO RICO 4, USA 3

Puerto Rico ousts U.S.

By STEVEN WINE The Associated Press MIAMI – Once again, the United States could only watch as an opposing pitcher celebrated at the World Baseball Classic.

This time it was 38-year-old right-hander Nelson Figueroa, who became the pride of Puerto Rico on Friday night when he led his team into the semifinals and eliminated the Americans, 4-3.

After Figueroa threw his last pitch to end the sixth inning, he leaped off the mound with a hoot like a kid at recess, then ran to catcher Yadier Molina to share a hug.

“We were supreme underdogs against that lineup,” Figueroa said.

“It was motivation to show them what kind of pitcher I was.”

On Thursday, demonstrative Dominicans dominated the All-Starladen U.S. squad. The Americans endured a scoreless streak of 14 innings spanning the two defeats, and Figueroa limited them to two singles in six shutout innings.

The Americans have still not won the WBC – or even reached the final – in three tries.

“When you play double-elimination, it’s a crapshoot,” manager Joe Torre said. “And Figueroa pitched his tail off tonight.”

J.C. Romero escaped a bases-loaded jam in the eighth and retired the final four batters for his first save.

Center fielder Angel Pagan caught the final out, triggering a pileup of Puerto Ricans behind the mound.

“When I caught that ball, I was thinking about my country all the way,” Pagan said. “We overcome what everyone expected. I think nobody expected us to be this far, but it’s about what we believe, and we believe we can go all the way.”

The Puerto Ricans advanced for the first time to the semifinals, which begin Sunday in San Francisco.

They’ll play the Dominican Republic today in the final game in Miami, which will determine seedings for the championship round.

Two-time defending champion Japan and the Netherlands round out the final four.

Figueroa (2-0) has a modest 2035 record for six teams in nine major-league seasons, with his most recent big-league game in May 2011.

He pitched in Triple-A last year but dominated the best of the U.S. “I don’t throw very hard, but I pitch inside,” he said. “It was a great exhibition of what can be done without a plus fastball. It was an opportunity to demonstrate that good pitching beats good hitting.”

It helped him that the U.S. team was again without WBC RBI leader David Wright, who missed his second game in a row because of a strain on the left side of his rib cage.

8SPORTS SHORTS Raiders sign former Bears LB Roach ALAMEDA, Calif. – The Oakland Raiders found the potential replacement for disappointing former first-round pick Rolando McClain, agreeing to a freeagent contract Friday with former Bears linebacker Nick Roach.

The Raiders announced the deal with Roach, who is the second linebacker signed by

the team this week, following a three-year, $6 million deal given to Kaluka Maiava on Wednesday.

Maiava is expected to replace Philip Wheeler, who left to sign a five-year, $26 million deal with Miami this week. The deal with Roach fills the hole in the middle created by McClain’s disappointing play.

“It just seemed like Oakland was an opportunity that was

too good to pass up,” Roach said.

Bears, Bowman agree on 1-year contract LAKE FOREST – The Bears have agreed to a one-year contract with cornerback Zack Bowman.

Bowman has appeared in 57 games with 16 starts over five seasons with the Bears, recording seven interceptions and 13

pass break ups and five fumble recoveries - including two for touchdowns.

He played in 11 games last season, recovering two fumbles and returning one for a touchdown.

The Bears announced the agreement Friday.

Scott closes in on Stefani at Tampa Bay Classic PALM HARBOR, Fla. – Adam

Scott had a breakthrough with his short game this winter, and it’s so good now that he hardly even has to use it.

Scott had a putt for birdie on 16 holes in a second round that was without a bogey and without much stress. He wound up with a 5-under 66 that left him one shot behind 31-yearold rookie Shawn Stefani in the Tampa Bay Classic.

Stefani had to scramble more

that he would have preferred, though he converted all the putts he felt he was supposed to make in his round of 70.

WINNING STREAK OVER FOR DOW

14,514.11

Fran Glosson, the McHenry chamber’s 2013 Woman of Accomplishment

NEW YORK – U.S. stocks fell Friday, ending the longest winning streak for the Dow Jones industrial average in nearly 17 years.

The Dow dropped 25 points to close at 14,514. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell two points to 1,560. The Nasdaq composite index dropped nine points to 3,249.

The Dow notched a 10-day winning streak through Thursday, its longest since November 1996.

Trading was tentative because investors fear that rising inflation will cause the Federal Reserve to retreat from policies aimed at boosting markets. The government said that consumer prices increased in February at the fastest pace in more than three years.

‘Servant leadership’ Glosson honored as Woman of Accomplishment

By CHRIS CASHMAN ccashman@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Fran Glosson of Johnsburg encouraged members of the McHenry chamber’s Women’s Interactive Networking Group to become “servant leaders.”

She was honored Wednesday as the chamber’s 2013 Woman of Accomplishment at 31 North Banquets.

Glosson began her career with Centegra Health System 37 years ago as a nurse. She is currently director of Community Learning Strategies at Centegra.

Glosson displayed a green hat which she passed around that featured pins she has received for her accomplishments.

“As far as accomplishments, I’ve accomplished getting all these pins, and I’m really proud of each and every one,” she said.

One pin was for critical care nursing. “I got a doctorate when I was older but nothing was as hard as going to Loyola and taking the test for certified critical care nurses,” she said.

She said her career has moved “from the field of critical care nursing into the field of organization behavior and organizational development.

I eventually received a doctorate in that, focusing on leadership learning, research and service – meaning servant leadership.”

She encouraged those in attendance to “get on board. When somebody asks you to do something, the answer to ‘how’ is ‘yes.’ Say yes, then you’ll figure it out.”

“I encourage you all to step up to your citizenship, run for office if you have the capacity,” said Glosson, a former McHenry County College trustee.

“Find your personal voice.”

She said she has overcome obstacles through her anchors of faith, fam-

In attendance were members of her family, including her husband, Dean.

They will celebrate 43 years of marriage in June.

“My ultimate inspirational person is my little sister, Judy,” Glosson said. “Ten years ago her husband went on a fishing trip up in Canada.

The plane went down, and John died.

Judy raised her four children by herself.”

She told the 100 people at the luncheon, “You are everyday heroes. I encourage you to know your stories,

embrace your stories, be who you are and where you are. Serve, Serve serve.

“Stay open to possibilities, continue to be a loyal servant and a leader, and just have a grateful heart.

“I’m not going to be Mother Teresa, but maybe I can make a difference in your life,” she said.

In attendance was Mary Margaret Maule of Johnsburg, an instructor at McHenry County College.

“I know Fran both professionally and personally and she is the embodiment of servant leadership,” Maule said.

CRYSTAL LAKE – The Crystal Lake Antique Mall, located at the corner of Williams Street and Crystal Lake Avenue, will host a presentation by Alison Hubbard on the history of America’s most beloved doll, Raggedy Ann, at 6:30 p.m.

March 21.

Raggedy’s creator, Johnny Gruelle, was a native of Arcola, located 20 miles south of Champaign. Gruelle wrote the series of adventures of the residents of his daughter’s playroom.

The presentation will describe “The Raggedy Way” of kindness and love for the Gruelle dolls, their creator and their impact on American folklore.

The program will last about an hour, with time for questions, and coffee will be served. The mall will be open for shopping after the program.

Strong auto output boosts U.S. factory production

By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER AP Economics Writer WASHINGTON – A strong increase in auto output boosted U.S. factory production last month, the latest sign that manufacturing is helping drive economic growth after lagging for much of 2012.

Factory output rose a seasonally adjusted 0.8 percent in February from January, after falling 0.3 percent in the previous month, the Federal Reserve said Friday.

The biggest gain was in autos and auto parts, where production increased 3.6 percent after falling 4.9 percent in January. Car sales have risen steadily this year after reaching a five year high in 2012.

Overall industrial production, which includes mining and utili-

ties, rose 0.7 percent in February.

That is the most in three months.

Utility output jumped 1.6 percent while mining output, which covers oil and gas drilling, fell 0.3 percent, the third straight decline.

Still, economists were encouraged by the broad-based gains in factory output. Rising home construction and increased business investment in machinery and other goods are also boosting manufacturers. The Fed’s measure of factory production is at its highest level in more than four and a half years.

Production of construction supplies, which includes steel, cement and wood products, rose 1.5 percent, the fourth straight solid gain. Factories also cranked out more industrial machinery, appliances, and furniture.

“Growth has clearly picked up,” Jim O’Sullivan, chief U.S. economist at High Frequency Economics, said in a note to clients. “This is another positive sign” for the economy in the January-March quarter.

O’Sullivan forecasts that growth will jump to a 3 percent annual rate in the first quarter, after barely expanding in the final three months of last year.

Jonathan Basile, an economist at Credit Suisse, said the healthy increase in output suggests manufacturers will need step up hiring in the months ahead. Factory job gains could rise to 20,000 a month, up from average gains of 13,000 in the past three months.

Factories are running at nearly full speed to keep up with demand.

Manufacturers are now using 78.3

percent of their capacity, the highest since December 2007, when the recession began. That’s just a halfpoint below the long-run average.

Running near full capacity could lead to higher prices for manufactured goods, economists caution, and could push up inflation.

But for now, a separate report Friday showed that consumer prices, outside gas, remained tame in February.

The industrial production report adds to recent signs that manufacturing is picking up.

A closely watched index of U.S. manufacturing activity increased in February for the third straight month. Big increases in new orders and production pushed the Institute for Supply Management’s index to its highest level in 20 months.

Review: Tech in Galaxy S 4 doesn’t come together id successor to the III. The screen is slightly larger, at 5 inches on the diagonal compared to 4.8 inches for the III and 4 inches for the iPhone 5.

It sports a resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels, as much as you’d find on a high-definition TV set. This should mean that the resolution chase is over in the smartphone area: the eyes just can’t discern any more pixels on these small screens. Competing top-line Android phones already have the same resolution, so Samsung isn’t breaking new ground here.

The bigger screen is crammed into a chassis that’s actually a hair narrower and thinner than the S III’s.

This is quite a feat. Samsung shrank the frame surrounding the screen to make room.

Shrinking other internal components allowed it to make the battery 20 percent larger than III’s, but Samsung isn’t saying whether that translates into longer battery life — the added battery power could be eaten up by software and hardware changes.

The body is still dominated by softly molded plastic, and the S 4 doesn’t really advance the aesthetics of its predecessor the way competitors Apple, Sony and HTC have done with their latest phones.

Apple and HTC, in particular, have put a lot of sweat into machining metal into jewellike enclosures; Samsung doesn’t seem to care all that much about looks.

Samsung does care about

By PETER SVENSSON AP Technology Writer NEW YORK– The Galaxy S 4, Samsung’s latest and greatest, has a cute feature we’ll probably see in a lot of phones soon: You can shoot both yourself and your surroundings at the same time, using the front- and back-mounted cameras. It’s a bit like having a two-camera film crew follow you around.

But other than that, it’s hard to point to anything that will set the world on fire in the new phone, revealed Thursday at an event in New York. The S 4 has what you’d expect from a new smartphone: a bigger screen and a faster processor. It may prove to be unfortunate that didn’t stop there when it presented the successor to its hit Galaxy S III, because the phone has a grab-bag of features that don’t come together as a pleasing whole.

The phone will go on sale sometime between late April and the end of June, from Verizon Wireless, AT&T, Sprint Nextel, T-Mobile USA, US Cellular and Cricket, Samsung says. If history is any guide, even smaller phone companies will get it, if not right away. The phone companies will set the prices; expect this phone to start at $200 with a two-year contract.

Samsung provided reporters with some hands-on time with pre-production units, which revealed the S 4 to be, in terms of hardware, a sol-

Hovering over a thumbnail of a picture in the Gallery will reveal a bigger thumbnail, and hovering over one email in a list will show a preview of its first lines.

The idea is similar to the “mouse hover” feature on a PC, which sometimes reveals things before the mouse is clicked. Implementing it on a smartphone is trickier, though. On the PC, you have

trying to push the envelope on what the phone does, but it may have poked through the envelope, tearing a hole or two in it. It’s probably not a disaster, because most of its features can be turned off, but first-time users could be confused.

For one thing, Samsung is taking the whole “touch screen” thing further by now sensing when the user’s finger is hovering over the screen. In other words, you

Gas spike drives consumer prices up 0.7 pct.

“Aside from the spike in gasoline prices, which is already being reversed, it is hard to find any evidence of major price pressures,” said Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist for Capital Economics.

Low inflation leaves consumers with more money to spend, which benefits the economy. It also allows the Federal Reserve leeway to keep interest rates low to help spur economic growth.

In February, total energy costs rose 5.4 percent. In addition to gasoline, prices for natural gas and home heating

a 9.1 percent surge in gas prices. That was also the largest monthly gain since June 2009.

Gas prices had fallen in the previous four months. Since last month’s increase gas price have started to decline again.

For the 12 months that ended in February, prices increased 2.0 percent. That’s in line with the Federal Reserve’s inflation target.

Excluding volatile food and energy costs, core inflation rose just 0.2 percent in February. Over the past 12 months, core prices have risen just 2 percent.

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – A spike in gas prices drove a measure of U.S. consumer costs up in February by the most in more than three years. But outside the gain in fuel costs, inflation was mostly modest.

The consumer price index increased a seasonally adjusted 0.7 percent last month from January, the Labor Department said Friday. It was the biggest monthly rise since June 2009.

Still, three-fourths of the increase in the index reflected

oil also showed big gains.

Food prices grew just 0.1 percent. Prices for fruits and vegetables jumped 1.4 percent jump. Meat, poultry and fish prices increased 0.5 percent.

Prices for new cars fell 0.3 percent, the largest monthly decline in three years. Airline fares and clothing prices also fell. Monthly rents and used car prices increased.

Gas prices rose sharply in February after falling at the end of 2012. The national average price for a gallon of gas jumped from $3.42 on Jan. 31 to $3.78 on Feb. 28.

to use the mouse, so you’ll discover the hover functions in the normal course of use.

But since the feature is new in a smartphone and there’s normally no reason to have your finger hovering over the screen, users are likely to discover this feature by chance.

That wouldn’t be so bad if all applications responded to hovering in a consistent manner, but very few applications react to it all. On the S 4, the “Email” app will show previews, but the “Gmail” app won’t. The built-in “Gallery” app will show picture previews, but other photo apps won’t. I suspect users will get tired of trying to hover with their fingers and give up on the whole thing.

The hovering feature also sets the phone up for another problem. In my testing, I found that the phone sometimes registered a close hover as a touch. In other words, the screen was overly sensitive, thinking I was touching it when I wasn’t. This may be fixed by the time the phone is in production, but it’s potentially an annoying issue.

The S 4 tries to divine your intentions in two additional ways. It has an infra-red sensor that looks for hand movements up to about 4 inches away from the phone, and it uses the front-side camera to figure out if it’s front of the user’s face. Thanks to the IR sensor, the phone’s browser responds to an “up swipe” in the air above it with by scrolling up, and to a “side” swipe

by jumping to another tab.

This could be pretty useful when the smartphone is the lunchtime companion and you don’t want to grease it up with foody fingers, but again, the “air swipe to scroll” shows up in only a few applications.

The camera is supposed to engage when you’re watching a video, pausing playback if it thinks you’re looking away.

This didn’t work in the preproduction unit I tested, but it’s hard to imagine that this is a feature to die for.

The list of user interface innovations goes on, but they don’t amount to a coherent new way of interacting with the phone. Nor do they turn the phone into something that’s intelligently aware of what goes on around it. It’s more like Samsung is throwing a bunch of technologies into the phone to see what sticks. Sometimes, that’s how progress works, but consumers might not appreciate being guinea pigs.

The S 4 presents an interesting contrast to the BlackBerry Z10, which is coming out in a few weeks. Research In Motion Ltd. jettisoned the old BlackBerry software and rebuilt it from the ground up.

The phone’s hardware isn’t as impressive as Samsung’s, but the software is easy to use, and it’s based on a strong idea: taking the pain out of communicating across email, text messaging and social networks. The S 4, unfortunately, doesn’t have the same clarity of purpose.

Boeing official: 787 flight resumption up to FAA The Associated Press Boeing expects to finish testing its battery fix for the 787 within the next week or two. Then it will be up to the Federal Aviation Administration to decide when the planes fly again.

That assessment from Ron Hinderberger, Boeing’s vice president for engineering on the 787, was more cautious than statements from other company officials, who sug-

gested Thursday that the 787 could be flying within weeks.

Boeing is testing several changes to the plane’s lithium-ion battery aimed at preventing overheating and a fire — conditions that led to the global fleet of 787s being grounded for the past two months.

Hinderberger said Friday that there will be one flight test. Most tests will be done on the ground, and all should all be done in one to two weeks.

By PHILLIP ALDER Newspaper Enterprise Association

George S. Kaufman, a playwright, director and producer who died in 1961, said, “Once upon a time there were three bears: Papa Bear, Mama Bear and Camembert.”

In the better-known story about the three bears, Goldilocks entered their house through the front door and ate the baby bear’s porridge -- presumably leaving the cheese in the fridge!

At the bridge table, as we have been studying this week, we need entries for a variety of reasons. In this deal, it is to take some inesses. How should South play in three no-trump after West leads the spade queen?

South’s sequence showed a balanced hand with 23 or 24 points (or a good 22). North shrugged his shoulders and raised to game.

South starts with six top tricks: one spade, one heart and four clubs. He could establish three winners in diamonds, but surely the defenders would then take at least one diamond and four spades.

Instead, declarer must assume that the heart inesse is working and chase

after one spade, four hearts and four clubs. However, South might need to take the heart inesse three times. This requires three doors -- entries -- to the dummy. And they are available if declarer is careful with his clubs.

After winning the second (or irst) trick with his spade ace, South leads his club eight and overtakes with dummy’s nine. He is on the board, so he takes a heart inesse. Next, declarer overtakes his club 10 with dummy’s jack and takes a second heart inesse. Then he leads the club queen to dummy’s king, takes a third heart inesse, and claims.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - Your earning potential in the year ahead will be much greater than it has been for a number of years. Nothing will be handed to you on a silver platter; you’re going to have to earn it the hard way with some old-fashioned work.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Your determination will increase considerably once you set your mind to completing a specific objective. All successes, including yours, are predicated upon an ability to establish goals.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You should do quite well with your shopping, because you’re not inclined to take things at face value. In fact, you’re likely to be very interested in what’s behind any facade.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- If you unexpectedly find yourself dealing with some influential people, don’t be intimidated by titles, trappings or appearances. You’ll do quite well with the big muckety-mucks.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Even if you’re the key player who pulls off something of significance, allow an insecure associate who had only a small hand in the undertaking to take a few bows.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may have an opportunity to repeat something that you enjoyed moderate success with in the past, only this time you’ll get much greater results.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your greatest successes are likely to come from endeavors that you work on with others. This will be especially true for large-scale enterprises in which the stakes are high.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Instead of simply demanding that your mate do this or that, you should set a good example. Your spouse will cooperate if you first show that you’re doing your part to share some of the load.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If something in which you’re involved hasn’t been working out to your satisfaction, make some constructive changes. It’s time to be a victor, not a victim.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- You have a valuable friend or acquaintance who can play a pivotal role in helping you advance a personal interest. Don’t be reluctant to solicit his or her help.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Give the requirements of your loved ones precedence over your own interests, if at all possible. In the end, you’ll feel better if you do your duty.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Much benefit can be derived if you stick to your skill set. If possible, focus on social activities and take care of worldly interests tomorrow.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A situation that has been a liability for quite some time is likely to do an about-face and start producing much-needed benefits.
