DEALING WITH ADMINISTRATIVE IMPOUND FEES

FINE LINE OF DRIVING

Despite referendum’s defeat, supporters continue to lobby

Sgt. Paul McNamara (right) with the Bull Valley Police Department signs off on some paperwork for John Youngs, with D&L Towing, after arresting a driver with no valid Illinois license and calling the company to impound the car. The Bull Valley Police Department has made more than $85,000 in administrative tow fees since October 2011. Offenders must pay a $500 fee to retrieve their car.

Some call fees a deterrent; foes say it is a money grab

By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com

O

n Monday night, a Cary police officer pulled over a vehicle and arrested the motorist for driving with a suspended license. The car was towed, and the driver was taken to the police station.

It is common practice for Cary police officers, but for the first time in department history, the driver was fined a $500 administration fee.

Cary started using the fine, known as an administrative impound fee, Monday. And similar fines are being used increasingly

by McHenry County municipalities when a driver is cited in connection with driving under the influence, driving with a suspended

or revoked license, an outstanding warrant or other felonies resulting in an impounded vehicle.

And they’re collecting tens, sometimes hundreds, of thousands of dollars doing so.

Since 2007, 15 police departments in McHenry County have implemented administrative impound fees, which most municipalities have set at $500. It is separate from any towing charges or court fines.

Two of the towns that first implemented it – Lake in the Hills and Crystal Lake – have generated more than $500,000 each since starting the fees in 2007 and 2008, respectively.

Police departments say the fee acts as a deterrent and recoups costs from pros-

ecuting the individual, but others argue the fees are nothing more than an opportunity for police departments to cash in on a person who has made a mistake.

“It’s a flat-out money grabber,” said Raymond Flavin, a DUI attorney in McHenry County. “There comes a point where it just isn’t fair.”

Flavin said his clients rarely get the administrative impound fee returned, even if charges are dropped.

“It’s all about money,” said Andrew Green, a Crystal Lake resident who has received three DUIs since 2005.

“They don’t want people to drink and drive, but they’re trying to make a buck off of it. I don’t think it’s fair.”

DUI COST BREAKDOWN

Despite a 2-to-1 defeat at the polls Tuesday, proponents of a property tax that would help fund developmental disability agencies aren’t calling it quits.

If the referendum had passed, it would have created a “377 board” in charge of disbursing money to agencies that pay for things such as residential programs, respite programs or day programs.

“Obviously, the challenges and the needs of people with disabilities have not abated at all, so we are not going to give up,” said Patrick Maynard, president and CEO of Pioneer Center for Human Services.

“We have planted some seeds and began a process. We did not have enough time or resources to get the necessary education out to the public.”

TINLEY PARK – Illinois’ GOP chairman emerged from another ouster attempt Saturday and said his party must be more welcoming of diversity and inclusive of people who disagree if it’s going to grow and win future elections.

More conservative members of Illinois’ Republican Party have been trying to oust Pat Brady for months, largely because he took a position in favor of gay marriage when a bill to legalize it was before the Legislature earlier this year. About 50 party members attended Saturday’s meeting of the GOP’s State Central Committee to ask that Brady step down or that the committee fire him.

After a tense, hourslong session, Brady remained as the party’s chairman. He said

Northwest Herald Web Poll Question

By MARTHA MENDOZA The Associated Press SARATOGA, Calif. – Fifteen-year-old Audrie Pott passed out drunk at a friend’s house, woke up and concluded she had been sexually abused.

In the days that followed, she was shocked to see an explicit photo of herself circulating among her classmates along with emails and text messages about the episode.

And she was horrified to discover that her attackers were three of her friends, her family’s lawyer says.

Eight days after the party, she hanged herself.

“She pieced together with emails and texts who had done this to her. They were her friends. Her friends,” said family attorney Robert Allard. “That was the worst” On Thursday, sheriff’s officials arrested three 16-yearold boys on suspicion of sexual battery against Pott, who committed suicide in September. Lawyers for the three, whose names have not been released because they are minors, released a statement Friday asking the public to withhold judgment until their clients can give

“The problem with digital technologies is they can expand the harm that people suffer greatly.”

Nancy Willard Cyberbullying expert and creator of a prevention program for schools their side of the story, the San Jose Mercury News reported.

“Much of what has been reported over the last several days is inaccurate. Most disturbing is the attempt to link (Pott’s) suicide to the specific actions of these three boys,” the statement from San Jose a t t o r n e y s Audrie Pott Eric Geffon, Alan Lagod and Benjamin Williams reads. “We are hopeful that everyone understands that these boys, none of whom have ever been in trouble with the law, are to be regarded as innocent.”

The arrests and the details that came spilling out shocked many in this prosperous Silicon Valley suburb of 30,000.

And together with two other episodes recently in the news – a suicide in Cana-

da and a rape in Steubenville, Ohio – the case underscored the seeming callousness with which some young people use technology.

“The problem with digital technologies is they can expand the harm that people suffer greatly,” said Nancy Willard, an Oregon-based cyberbullying expert and creator of a prevention program for schools.

Allard said Pott had been drinking at a sleepover at a friend’s house, passed out and “woke up to the worst nightmare imaginable.” She knew she had been assaulted, he said.

She soon found an abundance of material online about that night, including a picture.

“We are talking about a systematic distributing of a photo involving an intimate body part of hers,” Allard said. He said distributing the photo was “equally insidious as the assault.”

provides each year, including the overnight shelters. While the United Way of McHenry County, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the McHenry County Mental Health Board provide some of that funding, about $350,000 comes through community donations and fundraising.

That’s why supporting events such as SleepOut for Shelter is vital. This year’s event will be held May 11 on the property of Living Waters Lutheran Church, just off Miller Road in south Crystal Lake. Participants pay a small entry fee or seek pledges, and then spend the night outside, sleeping under the stars in tents, boxes or cars.

Last year, more than 500 community members participated, and about $60,000 was raised. This year’s goal is $80,000.

You don’t have to spend the night at the event site to participate, but it’s a lot of fun. There’s a bonfire, food and drink, live music, storytelling, games and more.

Registration remains open at www. pioneercenter.org. Just scroll down and find the SleepOut for Shelter link under “Events.” If you can’t or don’t want to sleep out, consider sponsoring one of the teams.

Every dollar raised goes to help our neighbors who are experiencing dire situations.

Sleep out to help homeless Homelessness in McHenry County is a growing problem.

Most of us probably don’t directly see it even on rare occasions, let alone on a day-to-day basis.

But the statistics don’t lie.

Since 2009, Pioneer Center for Human Services/PADS has seen a 48 percent increase in local homelessness.

McHenry County PADS, a division of Pioneer Center, provides emergency and transitional housing to local people experiencing homelessness as well as support services designed to transition individuals from homelessness into permanent housing.

Last year, PADS saw a 27 percent increase in homeless veterans, a 26 percent increase in transitional youth needing services, a 20 percent increase in families requiring shelter and a 17 percent increase in women seeking shelter.

Unfortunately, there are no permanent shelters in McHenry County.

Thanks to the generosity of local churches, PADS operates several rotating, overnight shelters during the colder months. But once the calendar turns to May 1, those shelters stop operating until November.

Sadly, as the state of Illinois continues down its path toward fiscal insolvency, it does not have the money to fund much-needed programs that help the homeless.

So Pioneer/PADS gets the vast majority of its money from the generous donations of local people and through fundraising.

And Pioneer/PADS’ biggest fundraiser of the year, SleepOut for Shelter, is just around the corner.

Before I go any further, I need to disclose that I am a member of Pioneer Center’s Board of Directors, and I am the board’s liaison to the SleepOut for Shelter Committee. I’m directly involved in this fundraising event. Keep that in mind as I make my pitch for your support.

It costs about $670,000 to fund the homeless programs that Pioneer/PADS

She also discovered that her attackers were three boys she considered friends – young men in whom she had confided, the lawyer said.

On Facebook, Audrie said the whole school knew what happened, and she complained that her life was ruined – “worst day ever,” Pott said.

Her parents did not learn about the assault until after her death, when Audrie’s friends approached them, Allard said.

Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith told the Mercury News that investigators for her department started looking into the circumstances surrounding Pott’s Sept. 10 suicide in the days immediately following it. A deputy assigned to Saratoga High heard rumors about the sexual assault and possible photographic evidence, and detectives spent months interviewing students and subpoenaing cellphone records, Smith said.

“We still have more interviews to do. We have more phones to get,” the sheriff said. “We have good evidence to justify the criminal charges even though the investigation is ongoing.”

Quinn makes hire to market health overhaul

By CARLA K. JOHNSON The Associated Press CHICAGO – Most Illinoisans without health insurance coverage know very little about the federal health care overhaul and how it might help them. It’s Brian Gorman’s challenge to make sure they learn.

Gorman, 38, a former campaign organizer for President Barack Obama, has been hired by Gov. Pat Quinn to increase the number of Illinois residents with insurance by telling them about features of Obama’s sweeping overhaul.

Within months, Gorman plans to roll out a campaign featuring TV ads, radio spots, tweets and billboards – possibly featuring sports teams – to promote a so-called “culture of coverage” and urge people without insurance to sign up.

Gorman, as director of outreach and education for the Illinois Health Insurance Marketplace, will be paid $71,500 this year to spread the word. He’ll oversee professional marketers and grassroots groups and spend up to $115 million in federal money – awarded Monday – with the goal of covering more than 1 million uninsured residents.

Below are edited excerpts of what Gorman told The Associated Press about the plan:

Q: Do Illinois residents know about the insurance marketplace, the online site where they’ll be able to shop for coverage starting Oct. 1?

A: When we conduct Illi-

nois-specific research, we suspect the data will reflect what we’re seeing nationwide. We’re anticipating 4 out of 5 of our likely customers, the people we need to engage,

Q: That’s pretty daunting, correct?

A: It’s a challenge. But we’re also really excited about the opportunity we have over the next five months to get the word out, to let people know what the marketplace is and how it will make their lives better by providing access to quality, affordable health care, which has been elusive to so many people in Illinois.

Criminal justice students homework – house arrest The ASSOCIATED PRESS EUREKA – A classroom debate over just how tough house arrest is has prompted a criminal justice professor at a central Illinois college to come up with what is a punishing assignment.

Eureka College professor William Lally is offering willing students the chance to wear GPS ankle bracelets for a weekend during which they are not allowed to stray more than 100 feet from their homes.

Some are finding that home confinement is harder than they thought.

“It was kind of depressing being in my room by myself,” said sophomore David Flores of Joliet. “I might as well be in

a prison cell.”

One or two students have signed up each weekend this semester to have the GPS monitors locked to their ankles Friday afternoon, The (Bloomington) Pantagraph reported.

Their home confinement lasts 60 hours from Friday night until their next class at 10 a.m. Monday.

During that time, the students are also barred from drinking alcohol and have to agree to surprise visits from their teacher and police with a portable breath monitor.

Violations result in a drop of two letter grades on their assigned paper.

So far, only one student has been caught breaking the rules.

The idea grew out of a class discussion in which a student said he’d rather take home confinement over prison time, said Lally, who spent two decades in law enforcement and was once police chief in Farmington.

“They understand it’s a learning experience because a lot of these guys want to go into this line of work,” Lally said.

Students said the tough assignment has an important payoff.

Senior D.T. Thornton of Bloomington, who hopes to become a probation officer, said the assignment was useful because he will be able to say to offenders, “I know how it feels because I went through it.”

it can do, how it affects their loved ones, their family members, their pocketbooks. We have to aggressively raise awareness and you have to get those folks to take action.

All that awareness is pointless unless we’re actually able to get people to enroll (in a health plan).

Q: What’s your background?

A: I worked on the 2008 and 2012 Obama for America campaigns. Between the period from 2009 and 2011, I worked as an organizer for Organizing for America, advocating for the president’s legislative agenda. The major legislative accomplishment of his first term was the passage of the Affordable Care Act. But I also organized around other issues of importance to the president, like the repeal of “don’t ask, don’t tell” and support for Supreme Court Jus-

tice (Sonia) Sotomayor.

Q: How are other states branding their health insurance marketplaces?

A: California is known as “Covered California.” It’s the “Connector” in Massachusetts. We want something people will recognize that’s a little less wordy than “Illinois Health Insurance Marketplace.” (It will be up to the marketing firm that wins the Illinois bid to design a logo and come up with a name.)

Q: Who else will be involved in reaching people without insurance?

A: Nonprofits, community-based organizations, government agencies, volunteer groups, labor unions. We want to inform and empower everybody to play a part in this.

Q: What’s the budget for this campaign?

A: We were awarded from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services $115 million. We have the resources we need to create something unique and strong and trusted in Illinois.

Q: Will there be any state money involved?

A: No state funds at all. I want to be very clear about that. This grant is $115 million in federal dollars.

Q: How will community organizations get involved?

A: It’s a competitive grant award process. The grantee needs to demonstrate their plan for educating and enrolling people in their community. We are allowing these community-based organizations to determine what resources they need to achieve specific, defined goals that we will hold them accountable for.

Obama’s budget plan may limit bargaining power The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama’s budget overtures to Republicans may limit his bargaining power if the GOP ever returns to the negotiating table on a grand deficit-reduction deal.

In essence, Obama’s spending blueprint is a final offer, a no-budge budget whose central elements have failed to persuade Republicans in the past.

By voluntarily putting entitlement cuts on the table, particularly a proposal to slow the rise of Social Security benefits, Obama has no other gambit to win tax increases from Republicans.

With many Democrats balking at what he’s already offering, it’s not politically feasible for him to offer the GOP anything more.

Puzzled Democrats main-

tain that Obama not only has given away his leverage, but he also has threatened the very identity of his party, which sees the Social Security Act of 1935 as one of its signature achievements.

“If he’s trying to do it to show he is forthcoming as a negotiator, then why doesn’t he wait until he gets to the negotiating table?” said Rep. Rush Holt, D-N.J. “There’s a lot of talk about the fact that politically this is not a winner.

Our brand is the party that brought you Social Security.”

What’s irked Democrats the most is Obama’s decision to include a significant shift in policy in his $3.8 trillion budget that would alter the government’s calculation of inflation, or the Consumer Price Index.

If adopted, this new “chained CPI” would change the way the government measures inflation and would slow the rise

talks last year.

“This is a Republican proposal,” White House spokesman Jay Carney insisted.

But the idea has been part of the thinking in Obama’s inner economic circle for two years, one the president put on the table during debt ceiling talks with the GOP in the summer of 2011.

Obama aides say the president had to include the Social Security change in the budget or risk being accused by Republicans of walking away from his previous offers. They say giving Republicans some of the entitlement cuts they seek means the GOP has one less reason to say no to the president’s proposals.

“The ball is now the Republican’s court,” said Dan Pfeiffer, Obama’s senior adviser. “Are they as serious about reducing the deficit as they claim to be?”

Guards responded Prisoners, guards clash over Guantanamo Bay raid by firing four “less-than-lethal MIAMI – Months of increased tension at the Guantanamo Bay prison boiled over into a clash between guards and detainees Saturday as the military closed a communal section of the facility and moved its inmates into single cells.

The violence erupted during an early morning raid that military officials said was necessary because prisoners had covered up security cameras and windows as part of a weekslong protest and hunger strike over their indefinite confinement and conditions at the U.S. base in Cuba.

Prisoners fought guards with makeshift weapons that included broomsticks and mop handles when troops arrived to move them out of a communal wing of the section of the prison known as Camp 6, said Navy Capt. Robert Durand, a military

sisting on $580 billion in tax increases on wealthier taxpayers. It’s a demand that Republi-

cans flatly reject.

The president has offered the benefit cut to Republicans before as part of broad deficit reduction negotiations, and only in exchange for tax increases the GOP stringently opposes. The White House says the same quid pro quo applies to Obama’s current offer, and chained CPI can’t take effect as a solo measure.

“You can’t decide to only pick out the concessions the president has made and not include the concessions that are from the Republican side, that need to be part of a bipartisan deal that could pass both houses,” said Gene Sperling, the top White House economist.

Faced with the withering criticism from Democratic and liberal allies, the White House has argued that the inflation proposal in the budget is a response to specific Republican demands during budget

rounds,” he said.

The confrontation came a day after a team from the International Committee of the Red Cross finished a three-week visit to Guantanamo to meet with prisoners and assess conditions.

Photographer Dese'Rae Stage sits next to a couple of her portraits of suicide survivors in New York.

Suicide survivors help to shape prevention efforts

By DAVID CRARY The Associated Press NEW YORK – They look intently at the camera, some impassively, some with smiles, all of them aware that they’ve just shared with an online audience a most personal story: Why they tried to kill themselves.

By the dozens, survivors of attempted suicides across the United States are volunteering to be part of a project by a Brooklyn-based photographer, Dese’Rae Stage, called “Live Through This” – a collection of photographic portraits and personal accounts.

It’s one of several new initiatives transforming the nation’s suicide-prevention community as more survivors find the courage to speak out and more experts make efforts to learn from them.

“Everyone feels like they have to walk on egg shells,” said Stage, who once tried to kill herself with self-inflicted cuts. “We’re not that fragile.

“We’re not that fragile.

We have to figure out how to talk about it, rather than avoiding it.”

Dese’Rae Stage Photographer that started “Live Through This”

We have to figure out how to talk about it, rather than avoiding it.”

In January, the American Association of Suicidology launched a website called “What Happens Now?” – described as the first sustained effort by a national prevention organization to engage survivors in a public forum. It features a blog, updated weekly, with contributions from survivors sharing their experiences and often using their real names.

In one of the latest posts, the founder of a respite home for suicidal people writes

powerfully about her own suicide attempt eight years ago, involving both pills and a kitchen knife, and about the contributions that survivors can bring to prevention efforts.

“Survivors have a unique perspective on what life’s like down in the deep, dark hole,” writes Sabrina Strong, executive director of Waking Up Alive in Albuquerque, N.M. “We found our way out...

We’re not afraid to crawl down in the dark hole with someone else.”

Seeking to encourage those types of contributions, the National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention – a federally funded public-private partnership – has formed a first-of-its-kind task force comprised of prevention experts and survivors.

It plans to issue recommendations this fall for how practitioners and organizations in the prevention field can “engage and empower suicide attempt survivors.”

Venezuelans journey to New Orleans to cast votes The ASSOCIATED PRESS

“It’s been pretty amazing how people have responded since the first announcement that Chavez died.”

DORAL, Fla. – Wearing the colors of the Venezuelan flag and carrying pillows, thousands of Venezuelans began the journey from Miami to New Orleans to vote in their homeland’s presidential election today.

More than two dozen buses with an estimated 2,100 voters departed from Doral on Saturday. They chanted the name of the opposition candidate, Henrique Capriles, and played Venezuelan music. Others had coolers filled with food and drinks for the 16-hour drive.

“I feel this is something I must do,” said Vivian Koenig, 21, before getting on a bus.

With just six weeks of preparation, Venezuelans in Florida have raised money and arranged travel. Aside from

Gilda Sollami Member of Voto Donde Sea bus, many are traveling by car and plane. Organizers said they expected a turnout similar or higher than that of October, when 8,500 Venezuelans cast ballots in New Orleans.

“It’s been pretty amazing how people have responded since the first announcement that Chavez died,” said Gilda Sollami of Voto Donde Sea, a group of students and young professionals that promotes

voting outside Venezuela.

President Hugo Chavez died in March after a two-year battle with cancer. His chosen successor, interim President Nicolas Maduro, is favored to win, but opinion polls show Capriles has narrowed Maduro’s advantage, rallying voters frustrated with chronic food shortages, inflation, power outages and surging crime that many blame on Chavez’s mismanagement.

The largest concentration of Venezuelans in the U.S. resides in South Florida. Most were stridently anti-Chavez and were expected to vote for Capriles. They must travel to New Orleans to cast their ballots because Chavez closed the Miami consulate in January 2012. Some 20,000 Venezuelans were registered to vote from the Miami consulate.

Russia bans 18 Americans after similar U.S. move

By JIM HEINTZ The Associated Press MOSCOW – Russia on Saturday banned 18 Americans from entering the country in response to Washington imposing sanctions on 18 Russians for alleged human rights violations.

The list released by the Foreign Ministry includes John Yoo, a former U.S. Justice Department official who wrote legal memos authorizing harsh interrogation techniques; David Addington, the chief of staff for former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney; and two former commanders of the Guantanamo Bay detention center: retired Maj. Gen. Geoffrey Miller and Adm. Jeffrey Harbeson.

The move came a day after the U.S. announced its sanctions under the Magnitsky Law, named for Russian lawyer Sergei Magnitsky, who was arrested in 2008 for tax evasion after accusing Russian police officials of stealing $230 million in tax rebates. He died in prison the next year, al-

8WORLD BRIEFS Mubarak appears in Egyptian court for retrial CAIRO – The judge in Hosni Mubarak’s retrial recused himself at the start of the first session Saturday, citing a conflict of interest as the former Egyptian president appeared in court for the first time in 10 months grinning and waving to supporters.

The recusal threw the case deeper into disarray after an appeals court in January overturned a life sentence for Mubarak on a conviction for failing to prevent the killings of protesters during the 2011 uprising that ousted him.

The appeals court granted Mubarak a retrial after ruling that in the first trial, the prosecution’s case lacked concrete evidence and failed to prove that protesters were killed by the police during the bloodiest days of the revolt. Some 900 people were killed in the 18-day uprising, most of them in the initial days.

Hoda Nasrallah, a rights lawyer representing 65 victims’ families in the case, said there is no certainty that the prosecution will provide new evidence this time around to back up the charges.

The judge in the first trial criticized the prosecution for failing to provide evidence that police killed protesters.

Protesters accused the attorney general’s office of shoddy work in collecting evidence.

Passengers, crew live after plane crash in Bali BALI, Indonesia – All 108 passengers and crew survived after a new Lion Air jet crashed into the ocean and snapped into two while attempting to land Saturday on the Indonesian resort island of Bali, injuring up to 45 people.

The injured were taken to several different hospitals for treatment, but there appeared to be no serious injuries, said airport spokesman Alfasyah, who like many Indonesians uses only one name. There were three foreigners on board – two Singaporeans and a French national – all of whom suffered slight injuries.

TV footage showed police and rescuers using rubber boats to evacuate the 101 passengers and seven crew members. The Boeing 737 could be seen sitting in the shallow water with a large crack in its fuselage.

Officials initially said the plane overshot the runway before hitting the water, but a spokesman for Lion Air, a low-cost carrier, said at a news conference that the plane crashed about 164 feet ahead of the runway.

Looking for logic in N. Korea’s threats

By TIM SULLIVAN The Associated Press

AP photo

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry conducts a news conference Saturday, answering questions from U.S. and Chinese media in Beijing, China.

N. Korea tests ties between U.S., China

By BRADLEY KLAPPER and LARA JAKES The Associated Press BEIJING – Bound by threats from North Korea, the U.S. and China agreed Saturday to rid the bellicose nation of nuclear weapons in a test of whether the world powers can shelve years of rivalry and discord, and unite in fostering global stability.

Beyond this latest attempt to restrain North Korea, the burgeoning nuclear crisis has so frustrated the U.S. and China that they are forming a new and tentative bond with the potential to carry over into areas that have vexed them for decades.

But they will need to overcome the longstanding prickly relations between Beijing’s communist government and Washington’s free-market democracy. The two are economic competitors, and China is far more reluctant than the U.S. to intervene in international military conflicts.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Saturday described a “synergy” between the two countries to achieve worldwide security and economic stability.

“We have a stake in China’s success. And frankly, China has a stake in the success of the United States,” Kerry told reporters in the Chinese capital. “And that became clear in all of our conversations here today. A constructive partnership that is based on mutual interest benefits everybody in the world.”

Kerry met with the new Chinese leaders to discuss a range of issues, most notably the persistent and increasingly pitched threats that North Korea has issued against the U.S., South Korea and Japan the over the past several months.

North Korea appears to be readying a missile test, in what the U.S. says would be its third since December, and there are varying opinions in Washington as to whether the North is able to develop and launch nuclear-tipped missiles.

One U.S. intelligence assessment suggested North Korea had the capacity to put a nuclear warhead on a missile, even if any such weapon would have low reliability.

Kerry and the Chinese foreign policy chief, State Councilor Yang Jiechi, said the two nations would work together to create a nuclear-free Korean peninsula, effectively forcing North Korea to give up its arsenal.

The reclusive North Kore-

“We have a stake in China’s success. And frankly, China has a stake in the success of the United States. ... A constructive partnership that is based on mutual interest benefits everybody in the world.”

John Kerry U.S. Secretary of State an government and its young leader, Kim Jong Un, are more likely to listen to China, its main economic and diplomatic partner and lifeline to the outside world, than anyone else.

Yang, through an interpreter, described China’s stance on North Korea as “clear cut” and called for resuming the six-nation talks that fell apart four years ago and are aimed at ending the nuclear threat.

“China is firmly committed to upholding peace and stability and advancing the denuclearization process on the Korean peninsula,” Yang told reporters. “We maintain that the issue should be handled and resolved peacefully through dialogue. ... To properly address the Korean nuclear issue serves the interests of all parties.”

But Kerry made clear that the U.S. would keep close watch on how China continues to deal with North Korea to “make sure this is not rhetoric but that this is real policy.”

North Korea was but one issue that was high on the priority list of discussions, Kerry said.

China and the U.S. have the two most powerful economies and are two of the largest energy users. They agreed to hold high-level talks on climate change and to ease business investment cooperation.

Kerry also raised the possibility of scaling back America’s military presence in the Asia-Pacific region once the Korean nuclear crisis is resolved. Beijing has been disgruntled about U.S. missile defense systems in China’s backyard.

“Obviously, if the threat disappears,” meaning a nuclear-free North Korea, “the same imperative does not exist at that point in time for us to have that kind of robust, forward-leaning posture of defense,” Kerry said. “And it is our hope in the short run that we can address that.”

SEOUL, South Korea – To the outside world, the talk often appears to border on the lunatic, with the poor, hungry and electricity-starved nation threatening to lay waste to America’s cities in an atomic firestorm, or to overrun South Korea in a lightning attack.

Enemy capitals, North Korea said, will be turned “into a sea of fire.” North Korea’s first strikes will be “a signal flare marking the start of a holy war.” Pyongyang’s nuclear arsenal is “mounted on launch pads, aimed at the windpipe of our enemies.”

And it’s not all talk. The profoundly isolated, totalitarian nation has launched two rockets over the past year. A February nuclear test resulted in still more U.N. sanctions. Another missile test may be in the planning stages.

But there also is a logic behind North Korea’s behavior, a logic steeped in internal politics, one family’s fear of losing control and the ways that a weak, poverty-wracked nation can extract concessions from some of the world’s most fearsome military powers.

It’s also steeped in another important fact: It works.

At various points over the past two decades, North Korea’s cycles of threats and belligerence pressured the in-

Most importantly to Pyongyang, it has helped the Kim family remain in power decades after the fall of its patron, the Soviet Union, and long after North Korea had become an international pariah. Now the third generation of Kims, the baby-faced Kim Jong Un, is warning the world that it may soon face the wrath of Pyongyang. If

the virulence of Kim Jong Un’s threats have come as a surprise, he appears largely to be following in his father’s diplomatic footsteps.

“You keep playing the game as long as it works,” said Christopher Voss, a longtime FBI hostage negotiator and now CEO of the Black Swan Group, a strategic advisory firm focusing on negotiation.

“From their perspective, why should they evolve out of this?

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”

Like hostage-takers, the North Koreans find them-

selves backed into a corner of their own creation, surrounded by heavily armed foes and driven by beliefs that seem completely illogical to everyone else. “From the outside, it makes no sense,” said Voss.

“From the inside it makes all the sense in the world.”

But the North Koreans also have repeatedly and purposefully backed themselves into those corners, terrifying the world with missile launches and nuclear tests that often end with North Korea getting more international assistance.

What isn’t fair is when someone who drives impaired takes someone’s life,” Crystal Lake Police Cmdr. Daniel Dziewior said. “What isn’t fair is that our officers have to go to court multiple times on their days off.

We’re paying officers time and a half.

Who’s paying for that? The person who doesn’t violate the law, the taxpayer.”Dziewior said revenue from the administrative impound fee goes to Crystal Lake’s general fund and is spread across budgets. He credited the fee for keeping Crystal Lake from laying off officers when other departments were cutting personnel.

“It’s not fair to the city and its citizens to pay again and again and again for someone who commits a DUI,” he said.

From 2009 to 2011, the Bull Valley Police Department recorded just six DUIs. In 2012, officers charged 171 intoxicated drivers. The increase was because of a push by Vance, who also serves as police chief, to catch more impaired motorists.

Vance put two, sometimes three, DUI details out from 7 p.m. to 3 a.m.

Friday and Saturday nights. Officers

caught intoxicated drivers by the dozens.

“The amount of people that were under the influence of alcohol and drugs was astounding,” Vance said.

“We’ve pulled over people with felony amounts of drugs and people blowing two, three, four times the legal limit.”

Costly mistake The administrative tow fee is one of many costs someone charged with a DUI must pay. After all fines, court costs and time missed from work are added together, a DUI can cost between $7,000 and $10,000, Northwest

Continued from page A1 Since November, the Pioneer Center and Options and Advocacy in Crystal Lake have advocated for the April referendum – primarily person to person and through social media – said Cindy Sullivan, Options and Advocacy’s executive director.

What they need before the next election, maybe in 18 or 24 months, is to raise more money and build better organization to get the word out, she said.

“People think those needs are being met,” Sullivan said.

In particular, people believe the state is providing those services, and they don’t understand why they need to pay a property tax locally, Maynard said.

“In general, from the type of feedback I heard, they just couldn’t connect why this is our responsibility. We’re already paying some of the highest taxes in the country,” he said. “We have to commu-

“I think there are people in the party who don’t necessarily agree with me, but the point is ... we’re a party that welcomes all ideas,” Brady said. “You don’t have to be exactly a platform Republican to be welcome in the party, and that’s the direction we’re taking the party.”

Besides Brady’s stance on gay marriage, his detractors also point to Republican losses at the polls in November. Illinois Democrats won veto-proof majorities in both chambers of the Legislature and picked up seats in Congress.

“We need a leader people can rally around,” said Mark Stern, a GOP township committeeman from DuPage County. “Pat Brady chose to focus on things that that are divisive rather than the 80 percent of things we all agree on. That’s not leadership.”

Tensions mounted when the committee went into the closed-door session without

first taking public comment and remained behind closed doors for several hours. At one point, people gathered in a hallway outside the meeting began yelling and chanting, “Throw him out.”

Brady said after the meeting that he does not plan to seek another term after his expires next year and that the committee agreed Saturday to begin working on a succession plan.

He said that plan was something the party needed to do and was not a compromise to appease committee members who wanted him gone.

Brady also survived an attempt last month by some committeemen to vote him out. That effort failed amid concerns that getting rid of Brady would reflect poorly on a party that’s trying to appeal more to young voters and minorities by being more inclusive.

Brady has the support of the state’s ranking Republican, U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk, who announced earlier this month he also supports same-sex marriage. Both men have said they don’t believe government has a place in deciding who should marry.

Cary expects to generate $50,000 to $60,000 annually from the fee.

“It’s a cost recovery,” Cary Police Chief Steve Casstevens said. “The whole concept of the fee is recovering the cost of prosecuting the offender.”

Seven McHenry County villages and the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office do not have an administrative impound fee. Huntley, one such town, has had 140 DUIs since 2009.

“The penalty hasn’t been really needed at this point,” Huntley Police Chief Michael Klunk said.

Klunk said he could see Huntley issuing such a fee around 2015 as a way to help offset prosecution costs.

“Anything the village could recoup back is a benefit to the community,” he said. “Most government entities are not a profitable agency.

Most money goes out the window. We definitely don’t make profits. Anything we can do to offset the cost on the taxpayer is a good thing.”

COMFORTABLE

“We have to communicate that no one is going to fix this for us, and the issue isn’t going to go away.”

nicate that no one is going to fix this for us, and the issue isn’t going to go away.”

Sullivan understands those concerns.

“I’m a taxpayer, too, and I know any tax increase is a bad word,” she said. “But it’s a pretty modest tax increase, and I think it would generate jobs and make our county a better place to live.”

Critics also have questioned the need to create another entity when the county already has a 708 board.

Most of that funding goes toward people with mental health and substance abuse issues.

Residents question need for additional tax • REFERENDUM

Community Counseling Services Co-director Joy Fischer said.

Fischer runs court-appointed classes for people charged with DUIs, classes that can cost anywhere from $95 to $1,150, depending on the risk level of the offender.

“Our clients hate the tow fees,” Fischer said. “But driving is a privilege. People think it’s a right. All of these fines are deterrents to keep people from driving drunk again.”

But Green, whose three DUIs have made him a frequent participant at Northwest Community Counseling, said someone drinking and driving isn’t thinking about the tow fee.

“After you get a DUI, a few months down the road you’re not thinking, ‘Oh, I better think about those tow fines,’ ” he said. “The deterrents are the court costs and the attorney costs.”

Opinions vary as to the effectiveness of impound fees as a deterrent to drinking and driving. From 2009 to 2012, the county saw DUI arrests de-

cline by 207, according to the McHenry County Circuit Clerk’s Office. But police officials aren’t sure what role impound fees have played.

Rick Atwater, co-director of Northwest Community Counseling Services, said the fee can be a deterrent for someone who isn’t an alcoholic.

“People who don’t have alcoholism haven’t lost the power to make a reasonable decision,” Atwater said.

“A person with alcoholism has lost this ability. That’s where we come in with treatment. But you can’t educate someone out of a disease.”

Lawmakers, get to work Spring Break ended for state lawmakers last week.

Legislators returned to Springfield after taking two weeks off. No movement, at least publicly, was reported in the dire need to reform the state’s pension system, which has an unfunded liability of more than $96 billion.

It costs an estimated $17 million daily for each day lawmakers don’t enact pension reform. The House passed For the record a reform bill March 21, before Now that lawmakers are back lawmakers went from Spring Break, it’s time on break. The for them to finally reform the measure capped state’s pension system. the 3 percent annual cost-of-living adjustment for existing retirees to only the first $25,000 of income for four of the five state-run pension systems. It also pushed back the eligibility for COLA increases to age 67 or five years after retirement.

Three weeks later, no new developments or pension legislation. Local lawmakers did report progress last week on bills they have been shepherding: • Rep. David McSweeney’s proposed constitutional amendment to eliminate the lieutenant governor’s office (HJRCA18) passed, 81-30, in the House on Thursday. In addition to McSweeney, local Reps. Jack Franks, D-Marengo; Tim Schmitz, R-Batavia; Mike Tryon, R-Crystal Lake; and Barb Wheeler, R-Crystal Lake, voted for the amendment.

McSweeney estimates $1.8 million can be saved each year by eliminating the office. We urge the Senate to also pass the amendment so voters can have the final say on the position’s fate in 2014.

• The McSweeney-Franks debt-reform bill aimed at ending abuses of alternate revenue bonds passed, 101-6, in the House on Tuesday.

Schmitz, Tryon and Wheeler voted for the reform bill (HB983), which went to the Senate and picked up chief sponsors in Sens. Pam Althoff, R-McHenry, and Dan Duffy, R-Lake Barrington.

Alternate revenue bonds allow taxing bodies to incur debt without voter approval. The Senate should follow suit and pass the bill.

• Wheeler’s legislation to create the Women Veterans Task Force to examine the needs of women veterans with respect to issues including compensation, rehabilitation, outreach and health care passed, 112-0, in the House on Thursday.

We support each of these bills and commend local lawmakers for their work on them. Yet none carries the significance of long-overdue pension reform. Rep. Elaine Nekritz, D-Northbrook, who has been an outspoken proponent for pension reform, doesn’t think reform efforts have lost momentum since March 21.

“I think members understand the gravity of what they voted for, and I think they’re still going to be committed to doing that,” she told the State Journal-Register.

We hope she’s right. Hopefully another week doesn’t pass without any movement.

Sensible gun regulation “This is common sense,” Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin said Wednesday as he and Republican Sen. Pat Toomey announced their proposal to subject gun sales online and at gun shows to background checks. In the politics of guns, common sense counts as a major breakthrough. The bipartisan deal might even be enough to help background-check legislation pass in Congress. If not, the long-term implications of the compromise are still important.

The deal would require background checks – and sales records, which help law-enforcement agencies track crimes – on many gun purchases that now escape scrutiny.

While still exempting some private transactions, including those between family members, the compromise would drastically expand background checks, in particular by closing the gun-show loophole.

If the proposal survives a gantlet in Congress, it may well save lives.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Medical question To the Editor: Will someone please tell me why a government program can be refused by some doctors?

I understand slow payments, but isn’t there an oath involved here.

Shouldn’t they be fined or something?

in America? Or will the boomers insist on receiving what they have been promised and relegate the solutions to their children and grandchildren?

The answers to these questions will determine whether history ultimately records my era as the Baby Boomer Generation or the Cry Baby Generation.

Cary

Bob Rozycki Crystal Lake

Step up, boomers To the Editor: The key characteristic of the Greatest Generation was sacrifice.

Members of that era sacrificed to help the nation survive the Great Depression, sacrificed to protect our way of life during World War II, and sacrificed to provide their children with a better way of life after the war.

The key characteristic of my generation, the baby boomers, has been opportunity. We used the unprecedented opportunities in education, leisure and entertainment options, and social interaction made possible by our parents to change the world.

However, as part of the optimism and energy heralded by my generation, promises were made that cannot be kept. For a number of reasons, promised benefits from Social Security, Medicare, other social entitlements, and state-based pension commitments cannot be realized without potentially destroying the very entities that promised them. Changes to these programs must be made if we are to preserve the general concepts of health and retirement security.

These changes will mean that some promises will not be fulfilled.

Unfortunately, many boomers feel that promises made to them must be kept.

The commitment to sacrifice for the common good so essential to the Greatest Generation is sorely needed today. Will the baby boomers be willing to make the sacrifices necessary to preserve and protect the progress made

Devastating effects To the Editor: The poverty level for an individual is $11,490 a year; it’s $15,510 a year for a family of two. The average monthly Social Security check is $1,264 per month. Deductions from these checks for Medicare Part A, Part B, Part D, (prescription drug coverage) and supplement insurance, as well as out-of-pocket co-pays and deductibles have the average Social Security recipient living far below the poverty level.

These seniors must dip into their savings to make ends meet.

McHenry County College wants to spend millions of dollars on another building for more classrooms and a health club. These projects usually end up costing millions of dollars more than estimated. There are plenty of private health clubs in the area. Adding another health club at MCC is unnecessary.

Eventually, the cost of this fiasco will end up on real estate tax bills, and may cause more housing foreclosures. Also, very few of the homeowners who will end up paying for this will ever get to use it.

This building project could end up having a devastating effect on homeowners.

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

here for three years in a special au pair program. While in America, she worked in the program; she got her driver’s license; she attended McHenry County College and received her CNA license; she also was given a Social Security number.

Lu is an accomplished musician.

She plays the piano, drums and guitar. She speaks four languages: Portuguese, Japanese, Spanish and English.

When Lu returned to Brazil after her stay in America, she attended a seminary.

The church where Lu worshipped while in America is Christ Life Church of Woodstock. Lu requested an R1Visa (a religious workers visa) when she came to America the second time. Her church hired an immigration attorney because Lu desired to work in America legally.

Working with the legal system got her nowhere. She was refused a visa.

She was told she would have to return to Brazil when her time was up, which she did. Now I read in the newspaper that some people who have served prison time are being released back into American society and they were here illegally to begin with.

Some of Lu’s friends said, “Why not just stay here. There are more than 11 million illegal immigrants here and no one is making them go home.”

Her response was, “I want to do things legal and right.”

To the Editor: The deficit could be reduced by trillions of dollars when the 2010 Bush-Obama-era tax cuts expired, but if Congress extends these big tax cuts to 2021, the deficit will be $11.6 trillion, with interest. If ended, the deficit will be halved, or under a manageable $6 trillion, which is CBO’s figure.

Halving the deficit can be done without gutting the New Deal programs, such food stamps and Medicaid.

The richest 1 percent had 21 percent of total U.S. income in 2011.

The wealthy also pay less on capital gains than wage/salary earners pay on personal income tax.

Other ways to reduce the deficit without endangering health, lives and society’s safety, many by increasing revenue from the wealthiest five percent: The top 1 percent have only 22 percent effective tax, but doubling to 45 percent over a decade would add $3 trillion in taxes to reduce more deficit.

Closing individual tax loopholes would save another trillion over a decade. Business transaction fees on stocks and derivatives would add revenue, therefore cutting the deficit.

The deficit is used to eradicate the New Deal social safety net.

Warren Buffet noted his class-level tax equals his $50,000 secretary’s, so this is not progressive taxing.

Right-wingers should find all these trillions to reduce the deficit.

“We are fed up with the same BS from every official we elect.

SHED DESTROYED IN SATURDAY FIRE McHENRY – No injuries resulted from a fire in unincorporated McHenry County.

The McHenry Township Fire Protection District responded at 3:45 a.m. Saturday to a reported structure fire at 2808 N. Baycliff Drive, outside of McHenry, according to a news release.

Firefighters found a 400-square-foot storage shed fully engulfed in flames that appeared to have been burning for a while before a neighbor saw it, the release said.

The building and its contents were destroyed, the release said.

Damage is estimated at $25,000.

‘Dream come true’ in sight Algonquin man’s work a finalist for Wrigley 100-year logo contest

By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – Brad Imburgia can’t remember a time when the Cubs weren’t part of his life.

He grew up with radio or TV accounts of ballgames playing in the background, part of the household summer soundtrack. He remembers voting in an impromptu straw poll as a first-grader in Elgin, splitting his classmates between Chicago’s two professional baseball teams.

Imburgia’s loyalty has never wavered.

“I couldn’t believe there were Sox fans out there because I never even considered being a Sox fan,” the

How to vote The Cubs’ Wrigley 100-year logo contest runs through April 23. To view the final four designs and vote, visit chicago.cubs.mlb.com/ chc/fan_forum/logocontest.jsp.

29-year-old Algonquin resident said. “There was a kid in my class who said, ‘We all live on the North Side of Chicago, and we should all be

Cubs fans.’

“That just made a lot of sense to me.”

Never in his wildest dreams, though, did Imburgia imagine that his love for the Cubs would turn into an official affiliation with the team. Imburgia is one of four finalists in a contest to design the logo the Cubs will use to celebrate Wrigley Field’s 100year anniversary next year.

Imburgia, who works as the senior graphic designer for Thermos in Schaumburg, had his logo selected from more than 1,200 entries. Voting runs through April 23.

Although Imburgia grew up loving the Cubs, he didn’t

Event allows students with disabilities to shine

By CYNTHIA WOLF editorial@nwherald.com CARPENTERSVILLE – Carol Siers steadied her camera phone and took careful aim.

About 4 yards away, at the focal point of Siers’ lens, sat her 12-year-old granddaughter, Regan Heine, tugging at her right foot and swinging her ribbon-bedecked ponytail from shoulder to shoulder.

Regan, who lives in West Dundee and attends Dundee Middle School, was among about 40 students partici-

pating Saturday in the third annual Adapted Physical Education Track and Field Meet. Kindergarteners through eighth-graders lined up for the long jump, tennis ball throw and 50-, 100- and 400-meter dashes in the Dundee-Crown High School field house in Carpentersville.

Siers said Regan, who has Down syndrome, was thrilled when she walked into the gym and saw all of her fellow athletes, event volunteers and pompom-waving fans.

The participating District 300 students were separated into three groups depending on their grade level. Events included the long jump and sprints.

CARPENTERSVILLE – A District 300 board panel has encountered resistance from some parents about a proposal that could expand the number of special education students placed in regular classrooms.

The board’s Legislative Committee has been trying for the past month to advance a proposal that would allow the Carpentersville-based school district to advocate formally for the elimination of the state’s “70/30” rule.

The rule stipulates that no more than 30 percent of a regular classroom can have special education students. The Illinois State Board of Education has proposed eliminating the rule and allowing local districts to determine their own special education ratios.

District administrators have indicated they would set the ratio at 60/40, but some parents are concerned the change would adversely affect the learning environment for general education students, board member Joe Stevens said.

“There are differences of opinion at the committee level on whether it should be 70/30 or 60/40.

Cary-Grove aims to stock shelves Fundraiser serves local food pantry

By JOSEPH BUSTOS jbustos@shawmedia.com CARY – Community members again are raising money to benefit the Cary-Grove Food Pantry, although with a smaller goal this year.

The third annual CaryGrove Fights Hunger campaign runs through the end of April. This year organizers do not plan to have events such as a pancake breakfast, opting for a mailin campaign instead.

“We are not having any events,” campaign coordina-

tor Cheryl Vaughn said in an email. “They were too costly, so we are relying on the letters with the envelopes that will be placed on mailboxes.

This is where we received the most donations.”

Vaughn added in a phone interview that organizers spent more money running the events than what was brought in.

This year’s goal is $10,000, “but we need 100 percent community participation,” Vaughn and co-coordinator Sally Biere wrote in a fundraising letter.

The previous two years, the goal was $20,000. Last year, the campaign brought in $14,000. The first year, the campaign accumulated

Reminders about rabies NORTHWEST HERALD WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Department of Health reminds residents that bat season is approaching, so it’s time to think about protecting families and pets from rabies exposure.

If a bat is found in the home, contain the bat in a room by closing the door or placing a blanket on it and immediately calling Animal Control at 815-459-6222.

To test bats for rabies, it is important they be in good condition (i.e. head is intact) – either alive or recently deceased.

Only in cases of confirmed exposure will bats be submitted for testing, according to Illinois Department of Public Health protocol. Specimens in

good condition and that test negative for rabies eliminates the need for rabies treatment after human exposure.

In 2013, no bats have tested positive for rabies in McHenry County. Last year, the health department reported two rabid bats, with IDPH reporting 63 statewide.

The best way to avoid rabies is to avoid exposure. For questions about exposure or to determine the need for treatment, call the health department’s Communicable Disease Program at 815-3344500. Rabies is a deadly disease caused by a virus that attacks the central nervous system and can be confirmed only in a laboratory.

Keeping cats and dogs up to date with vaccinations will keep them from getting rabies

and protect a family if the animal is bitten by a rabid animal.

Most bats leave in the fall or winter to hibernate, so these are the best times to “bat-proof” homes. A fact sheet on bat exclusion can be viewed at www.mcdh.info.

Residents are encouraged to take a “hands-off” approach to wild animals. Children also should be educated about the dangers. A bat that is active by day, found in a place where bats are not usually seen (such as in a home or swimming pool) or is unable to fly is more likely than others to be rabid.

For more on rabies, visit the Illinois Department of Public Health website at www.idph.state.il.us/public/ hb/hbrabies.htm.

LAKEMOOR: RESTRUCTURING

Cast away

Village president: Changes to police department done

Kenji Aoki, 8, fishes next to his sister, Kimiko Aoki, 9, at the annual Veteran Acres Family Fishing Derby on Saturday at the Veteran Acres Pond in Crystal Lake.

By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com

Algonquin resident: ‘Wrigley is so special’ • LOGO Continued from page B1 make his first visit to Wrigley until he was 18, witnessing his first game with his future wife and another couple. And despite the controversial $500 million face-lift Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts is seeking to give the 99-year-old ballpark, Imburgia can’t help but get lost in Wrigley’s nostalgia.

“Wrigley is so special,” he said. “I remember not really knowing what to expect, but when you walk up those stairs and see the field ... every single time, you still get those butterflies in your stomach. You see the grass and the ivy and you feel those butterflies, you know the place is special.

“It’s not just a ballpark. It’s

a piece of history.”

Wrigley’s history played a major role in his design choice. What started as sketches in a notebook soon became a clean, finished product that took nearly six hours to complete. The logo’s foundation is a home plate, signifying that the Cubs have called Wrigley home since the park was built in seven weeks in 1914.

Imburgia has always been captivated by the stadium’s facade, which hasn’t changed much over the years, adding to its appeal for baseball historians. Each of the four finalists included similar renderings of Wrigley’s exterior design with the differences coming more in the color scheme and font.

Imburgia was caught off guard when he learned he was a finalist. After not hearing

anything officially from the Cubs for nearly a month after submitting his logo, Imburgia received news he was part of the contest’s finalists when a friend emailed him to tell him he had voted for Imburgia’s design.

Yet, Imburgia – who also has his own design and branding company – won’t allow himself to think too far ahead.

He’s unwilling – at least yet – to think his handiwork could be part of Wrigley Field when the ballpark turns 100 in 2014.

“Even if this is as far as I get, just to know that I was a part of Wrigley history is really special for me,” Imburgia said.

“But if I won the whole thing, it would be a dream come true. If I could see that logo on a patch on the shoulders of the players there, that would be amazing.”

Stevens: Proposal on rule not ready for vote • D-300 Continued from page B1 ... We have some parents speaking up that we are going to let it go to 60/40 and not have a debate,” said Stevens, who co-chairs the legislative panel.

Stevens informed the full district board last week that the district’s legislative proposal on this rule was not

ready for a vote.

But he cautioned that the committee is in no hurry to advance the proposal to the full board because the state education board has yet to determine whether it will even eliminate the mandated special education ratio.

The state is accepting public comment on the proposed elimination until April 22. A formal decision on the “70/30” rule likely won’t happen until

summer.

The district still encourages residents to express their opinion to the state on the proposed cut because administrators would like local control of the classroom ratio.

The legislative panel in the meantime will debate how the district would exercise that control, Stevens said.

“Until the state rules, we don’t know what our options are,” he said.

LAKEMOOR – Restructuring of the Lakemoor Police Department is complete, the village president said.

Over the past several months, the department has added a sergeant, an interim deputy chief and a couple of patrol officers.

“We were fiscally responsible,” Village President Todd Weihofen said. “We worked to do more with less, and now we’re able to start growing again.”

In April 2010, the Village Board laid off one sergeant, demoted another to patrolman, fired one probationary

police officer and reduced the police clerk position from full to part time.

With these latest changes, the department staffing is back to where it was before the cuts, Weihofen said.

The deputy chief position is an addition, designed to improve the command structure to “bring more accountability to the police department” and increase in-house training, he said.

Over the past few years since the cut, the village is on its fifth police chief since Wally Frasier was fired in August 2009.

The current chief, David Godlewski, took the job in September after retiring

from the Lake County Sheriff’s Office, where he ended a 25-year career as its chief of operations.

Since taking office in May 2009, Weihofen has tried to “professionalize” the department and crack down on ordinance violations through a “Broken Windows Campaign.”

“The police department is functioning the best it’s ever functioned,” Weihofen said.

The village also has restored some of the positions in other departments that were cut around the same time, including bringing back a full-time building inspector position on a parttime basis.

DUPUYTREN’S?

Monica Maschak – mmaschak@shawmedia.com

Evan Ramza leaps during the long jump as staff members prepare to mark his distance Saturday at the Adapted Physical Education Track and Field meet at Dundee-Crown High School.

Teacher: ‘It’s a chance to see the kids shine’ • TRACK Continued from page B1 “This is the first time she’s ever done this,” Siers said as Regan stood and approached the long jump area. “Go Regan!

Jump far!”

Participating students came from several District 300 elementary and middle schools and had various developmental and physical disabilities.

Coordinating the event, which coincided with Autism Awareness Month, were adaptive P.E. teachers Tommy Parisi, Julie Belin and Johanna Wilkinson, along with special education teachers Julie Voss, Dawn Danilov and Nancy Grove.

“It’s a great thing for parents and families to celebrate their children participating in an organized sport,” Voss said.

“For me, it’s a chance to see the kids shine,” Danilov added. “They’re superstars.”

Thanks to a donation from recently retired head custodian Brett Kincannon, plenty of ribbons were available.

Twelve-year-old Jack Hassan, a Dundee Middle School student with autism, said he looked forward to trying for a ribbon in the running events.

“Running is easy for me,” said the Algonquin youth, who proved his point shortly thereafter when he crossed the finish line with a huge grin.

“I was fast!” he said as he high-fived Danilov.

Also running, with the help

of teen guides, were Ethan and Seth Martinez, 11-year-old twins who attend Eastview Elementary School. The boys were born four months premature, weighing just 1 pound each and blind.

“There’s a lot of people, and there’s a lot of fun,” said Seth when asked to name his favorite aspect of the day. “It’s so fun to be here.”

Sheryl Konetzny of Carpentersville agreed. She attended with her 5-year-old daughter, Olivia, who has autism and attends Gary D. Wright Elementary School.

“It’s pretty cool,” Konetzny said as shouts of “Good job” and “Way to hustle” could be heard throughout the gym.

“They all seem like they’re having a blast.”

LEOLA SCHAFFER CONROYD Born: Aug. 26, 1919; in Crystal Lake Died: March 30, 2013; in Crystal Lake CRYSTAL LAKE – Leola Schaffer Conroyd, 93, passed away Saturday, March 30, 2013, in Crystal Lake.

Preceded in death by Roman Lincoln “Conny” Conroyd, her beloved husband; and her beloved sister, Loretta Schaffer Calonico. Leola leaves behind five nieces and nephews, Lynne, Mark, Robert, Maggie and Nancy; their spouses, Joan, Sharon and Rick; eight grand-nieces and grand-nephews; and several cousins and friends who remain in the McHenry/Crystal Lake area.

Leola was born Aug. 26, 1919, in Crystal Lake, eldest daughter of Clara and Michael Schaffer. In 1937, Leola graduated from Crystal Lake High School and maintained contact with a group of “37’ers” for many years, lunching together regularly in McHenry or Crystal Lake. After Leola and Conny were married on Dec. 21, 1943, they built their house from the ground up on West Bull Valley Road in McHenry.

They lived in McHenry all of their married lives.

Leola enjoyed a long career as a beautician, working for many years at a beauty shop in Northbrook until her retirement. Nieces and nephews recall lining up as children for kitchen haircuts whenever Leola visited her sister in California. Leola and Conny enjoyed trekking regularly to their favorite Wisconsin lakes, where no fish was safe. They taught a tribe of young nieces and nephews how to bait their own hooks and how to clean bluegill and catfish when they were big enough to keep (the fish, not the kids). Come Christmastime, their gifts would arrive in boxes big enough to hide in, and there was great anticipation at discovering what was inside.

Leola loved mysteries, Ghirardelli chocolate, her treasured Christmas cactus that grew from her own mother’s cuttings, big dogs and crossword puzzles. She will always be remembered for her generosity and for the wisdom she imparted to her nieces and nephews well into adulthood.

A mass in Leola’s name will be said at 10 a.m. Sunday, April 21, at The Church of Holy Apostles, 5211 Bull Valley Road, McHenry, 815-385-5673. Private interment

Sunday, April 14, 2013 • Page B7

will be in Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery in Elwood.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Leola’s name to the North Chicago Veterans Administration Medical Center.

Cary-Grove’s humble ‘Suds’ wins 500th Don Sutherland thoroughly enjoys going to the ballpark every day.

It provides an avenue to teach and mold and compete. The CaryGrove baseball coach thrives on competition.

The wins, unmatched by any other area coach, are a by-product of all those things. But a wise man once told “Suds,” as everyone around C-G calls him, there is much more involved with

PREP ZONE Joe Stevenson coaching than wins.

“My dad [Jim] taught me that,” Sutherland said. “He enjoyed it so much. When I was young, I saw that. I can remember when he could swing a fungo bat again for the first time [after

being sick]. There are so many things more important than winning, like just being at the baseball diamond.”

Jim Sutherland, a coaching legend in Ottawa, died in 1994 after a long bout with myasthenia gravis, a neuromuscular disease that leads to muscle weakness and fatigue. The lessons Don learned have carried him through 26 seasons of baseball to his 500th win Saturday as C-G

defeated Grayslake North, 12-1, in five innings.

The victory put Sutherland at 500-363 for his career, adding him to an elite group with 37 other coaches, according to the IHSA website. Locally, Marian Central’s Gregg Wikierak, who retired two seasons ago at 400-235, is within 100 victories of Sutherland.

Tiger Woods acknowledges the crowd Saturday after putting out on the 18th hole of the Masters in Augusta, Ga. He is four shots off the lead.

THE MASTERS

Tiger spared DQ, surges late in round Eventful day finishes with Woods 4 behind co-leaders

By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press AUGUSTA, Ga. – Tiger Woods made two significant moves Saturday at the Masters – one to stay in the tournament, the other to stay in the hunt.

A day filled with high drama before a shot was struck at Augusta National ended with Brandt Snedeker and Angel Cabrera tied for the lead, and Woods only four shots back. For a few tense hours in the mornLeaderboard ing, it was not clear if Woods was going to Third round get a chance to play.

Brandt Snedeker -7 Masters officials Angel Cabrera -7 discovered late Friday Adam Scott -6 that Woods had taken Marc Leishman -5 a bad drop in the secJason Day -5 ond round and should Matt Kuchar -4 have added two shots Tim Clark -3 to his score.

Under normal cirTiger Woods -3 cumstances, he would have been disqualified • Complete scores, for signing an incortoday’s tee times. rect card. Officials PAGE C3 took the blame for not alerting Woods to a potential problem – they found nothing wrong at first glance before he signed – and kept him in the tournament with two shots added to his score.

Woods was covered under a 2-year-old rule that prevents some DQs, even after a player signs an incorrect scorecard.

“It certainly was a distraction early,” Woods said after three birdies on his last seven holes for a 70. “It happens and you move on. I was ready to play come game time.”

So was Snedeker.

He’s been building toward a moment like this for the last year, and he seized his chance on a glorious afternoon with a bogeyfree round of 3-under-par 69. After opening with 12 pars, he birdied both the par 5s and stuffed his tee shot to 4 feet for birdie on the par-3 16th to take the lead. Cabrera joined him at 7-under 209 with a 12-foot birdie putt on the final hole, capping a round in which he twice made bogey on the par 5s.

They were two players going in opposite directions this year.

Blackhawks goalie Ray Emery had surgery in 2010 for avascular necrosis in his right hip, a condition that eats away at the bone.

‘Little steps’ led to Emery’s big comeback CHICAGO – The praise became a familiar refrain for Sharlene Emery.

To a mother, it was like hearing the best kind of echo. Every school year, she would hear a similar message from a different teacher about her young son, Ray. “The teachers would tell me he could do anything,” Sharlene Emery said last week from her home in Ontario. “He could do anything, he could be anything.

Because physically, he was very

VIEWS Tom Musick athletic, and mentally, he was always ahead of the class.”

But he couldn’t actually do anything, of course. No one can.

For instance, no one had returned to the NHL after surgery to save a collapsing hip.

At least, that is, no one until Ray Emery.

These days, Emery is one of the hottest goaltenders in the NHL. He is 15-1-0 with a 1.90 goalsagainst average, and he is a big reason the Blackhawks lead the NHL in points with eight games remaining in the regular season.

At this pace, the Hawks could return to the Stanley Cup for the first time since 2010. Emery might be the starting goaltender for the playoffs, or he might be on the bench, one coaching decision away from skating into the brightest spotlight in hockey.

The Hawks were in that spotlight not so long ago.

But while Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane and the rest of the Hawks took turns hoisting Lord Stanley’s Cup above their heads, Emery was confined to a hospital bed in a lakeside cottage south of Barry, Ontario. Technically, he was on the Philadelphia Flyers, but he watched the playoffs on TV. He watched a lot of things on TV.

ED REEVES INVITATIONAL

Fouch leads Hampshire to girls, combined titles Fouch said. “But, hey, it doesn’t matter, I know what my last name it, so either way I’ll take it. If you’re close to it, it’s fine.”

Mainly what Fouch has been called this season is winner. She won the 100 and 200 meters at Marengo’s Ed Reeves Invitational Track and Field Meet on Saturday at Rod Poppe Fields, helping the Whip-Purs to an impressive 200½ points for first place. Fouch likely would have won the 400, too, but was disqualified for a false start.

By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com MARENGO – Ashley Fouch prefers to add the “é” to her last name in honor of her ancestors who, somewhere through the years, dropped the last letter of their last name.

The Hampshire senior sprinter has the old spelling on the back of her sweatshirt, although it creates some confusion over what to call her.

“People mix it up and give me nicknames, they call me Foosh,”

Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts smiles Dec. 5, 2011 outside Wrigley Field. On Wednesday, a package containing a goat’s head was addressed to Ricketts and was left in a box outside the ballpark. Ricketts is currently in negotiations with city officials and neighborhood business people about the $300 million renovation of Wrigley Field.

I

t’s probably safe to say that the Cubs have had better weeks. In the span of a few hours Wednesday, a package containing a severed goat’s head arrived at Wrigley Field and top minor-league prospect Jorge Soler headed toward an opposing dugout with a baseball bat. Sports editor Jon Styf and columnist Tom Musick discuss: Musick: Hooray, baseball season

has arrived! So why did every story about the Cubs this week seem to do with something other than baseball?

Styf: I’d love to be light-hearted about this stuff, but I’m not sure people fully grasp how sick both incidents were. Someone had to kill a goat to do this. And Soler apparently was out to hurt someone.

I sincerely hope the goat head came from a butcher shop or somewhere it was already dead and it wasn’t actually killed Jorge Soler just to leave wrapped up outside Gate K. Musick: Agreed. I know opinions vary on the Cubs and Wrigley Field and the rooftops, but can’t we all agree to leave goats out of this? The supposed curse from 1945 and the goat-head incidents (this was not the first) serve to make all Cubs fans look bad.

Styf: Speaking of bad, it’s got to be a bad sign that Soler was sent out of Florida to meet with management. He’s not even expected to return when his five-game Florida State League-imposed suspension is up. At least that’s what the Daytona Beach News Journal is saying. If he did return the next game, he’d face the same Clearwater team he just went after with a bat.

Musick: It might be a good idea to wait until Clearwater clears out of town before allowing Soler to return to the club. Soler obviously is tough at the plate – he has 10 hits in his first 23 at-bats this season – but is he tough between the ears? Maybe it’s time to find a minor-league mentor to help Soler adjust to life as a professional, sort of like Alfonso Soriano has taken Starlin Castro under his wing.

Styf: If only Crash Davis were real. I was around Tampa Bay when Elijah Dukes and Delmon Young were there. Both had somewhat similar minor league incidents.

Both had bad endings in Tampa, one worse than the other. Google “Elijah Dukes gun” if you don’t know what I’m talking about. Hopefully this ends better.

Musick: I’m guessing that it will.

Most of us did stupid things when we were 21, and the Cubs have 30 million reasons to provide support to Soler. But if he fails to mature and if other top prospects do not fulfill their potential, the Cubs will have problems way bigger than an unwanted delivery to Gate K.

There’s no manual for being a head coach, so thinking it’s not what I expected wouldn’t be the right answer. Surprised by it? No, because everyone’s always telling you there’s no preparing to be a head coach. I think it’s been good, exhilarating and tiring all at the same time. You just have to get up and make sure you’re doing your job the same time every day, and that’s probably a good thing. So it’s pretty great.

This place has won for a long time before last year and so to go ahead and say, ‘Oh yeah, now the expectations are More online this’ [after the BCS bowl berth], that would kind of be devaluing For video of everybody that has been here Northern Illinois before and all the great teams spring football they’ve had here. There have been a lot of great football teams practice, log on to here and this place has been win- NWHerald.com. ning at a high rate for a long time.

So no one has bigger expectations for us than us, and that’s how we approach it, and that’s how we’ve been approaching it for a long time.

I’m not going to sit here and tell you I’m an expert at [Twitter] by any stretch of the imagination. I think anything that comes to reach a big crowd is great. It used to be, ‘Get a website,’ and no one does that anymore. Now you’re on social media and that reaches more people quicker. I think it’s important. Do I like every aspect of it? By no means. But I think that’s how the world is communicating right now. [But] no one cares about what I’m thinking every day. [My Twitter feed] is about what’s going on here.

I’ve never been to Wrigley before, and so I’m really looking forward to it. A couple friends said, ‘Just don’t make SportsCenter’s Not Top 10.’ I don’t know if that’s advice or if that’s a warning – one of the two.

I don’t think I’ve thrown off a mound since I was in high school, so we’re going to find out. When you grow up in the age of SportsCenter, I’ve heard some people sing [at Wrigley] before and I know I won’t be the worst. But you’ve got to be prepared so you’ve got to know the words [to “Take Me Out To The Ball Game”] because there have been some guys who have gotten up there who didn’t know the words and that’s an issue. I can eliminate that issue, but the rest of it, I have to take full ownership of – it’s completely mine. But for the quality of it, that’s everyone else. They asked me to do this. I didn’t beg for it.

Being a baseball fan in general, you’re naturally a Cubs fan. I’ve never been there and it’s one of those bucket list things just to go watch a game. So the fact I get to do this too is awesome. It’s like the bucket list-plus and you get to scratch it off. But there’s been a relationship that’s been built between the Cubs and NIU, and I really look at this as a continuation of that relationship. I mean, how can you not like being affiliated with the Cubs – everybody knows who the Cubs are.

THE MASTERS

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

Confident Snedeker says, ‘I’m here to win’ • MASTERS Continued from page C1 Snedeker was seen as the hottest player in golf when in three straight weeks he was runner-up to Woods, runner-up to Phil Mickelson and then won at Pebble Beach. His momentum was slowed by sore ribs that kept him out of golf for a month, though he appears to be hitting his stride.

“I’ve spent 32 years of my life getting ready for tomorrow,” Snedeker said. “I’m going to be disappointed if I don’t win. Period. I’m not here to get a good finish. ... I’m here to win.”

Cabrera, whose two major titles include a Masters win in 2009, has plunged to No. 269 in the world.

“I’ve been working very hard for this moment,” Cabrera said through an interpreter.

“And I’ve got to take the opportunity.”

For Adam Scott, it’s a chance at redemption.

He was runner-up at the Masters two years ago, though the fresher wounds are from last summer at Royal Lytham & St. Annes, where the Australian bogeyed his last four holes and finished one shot behind in the British Open. Scott rammed home a 25-foot birdie putt on the 17th hole for a 69 and was one shot behind.

Two more Aussies, Marc Leishman (72) and Jason Day (73) were another shot behind, giving the blokes from Down Under as good a chance as ever to give their country some happy memories from Augusta National. It’s the only major an Australian has never won, a point driven home with every mention of Greg Norman losing a six-shot lead on the last day in 1996.

“Obviously, to win the Masters would be incredible,” Scott said. “It would be great for Australia. We’ve never looked better odds-wise going into a Sunday, except that one year in 1996. It’s going to be a

hell of a round tomorrow.”

Day was in the lead for most of the day, going 18 straight holes without a bogey until he missed short par putts on the last two holes.

Matt Kuchar (69) was three shots back, and Woods was right behind.

Woods, the No. 1 player in the world who already has won three times this year, was the heavy favorite going into the Masters to capture a green jacket for the first time since 2005 and end his five-year drought in the majors.

His big move came after a bogey on the 11th hole, leaving him six shots behind as he made his way through a back nine that has not treated him kindly of late. But he ran off three birdies on the next four holes, and made clutch par saves on the 16th and 18th to stay in the game.

“I’m right there in the ball game, “Woods said. “I’m four back with a great shot to win this championship.”

History is not on his side.

Woods has never won a major from behind, every Masters champion has been no worse than a tie for fourth going into Sunday dating to Faldo’s comeback in 1989. But at least he’s still in the game.

That was never in doubt to the officials running the Masters. Fred Ridley, chairman of the competition committees, said he looked at video as Woods was playing the 18th hole Friday and saw no need to ask him about the drop because he didn’t detect a violation. It was only after Woods’ post-round interview when he implicated himself by saying he went back a few yards by design that it became an issue.

Because he saw no problem at first with the drop and let Woods sign his card without talking to him, Ridley said it would have been “grossly unfair to Tiger to have disqualified him.” He said the notion of a DQ was “not even on the table.”

Christian Kramer the 200 meters Saturday at the Ed Reeves Invitational at Marengo. Harvard won the boys team championship.

Harvard wins boys title • TRACK Continued from page C1 Fouch then cheered on teammate Elizabeth Pagan to the win in that race.

Hampshire’s girls scored enough by themselves to take the combined boys and girls trophy. The Whips’ combined teams finished with 231 ½ points, with Marengo (198) taking second and Woodstock (196) third.

Harvard’s boys team, on the strength of sophomore Christian Kramer’s 36-point performance, took first with 135 points. Woodstock (108½) was second. Kramer won the 100 and 200 and took seconds in the 400 and long jump.

Hampshire’s girls depth, particularly in the sprints, has given the Whips one of their strongest teams ever.

“We have a lot of good sprinters,” said Pagan, who also won the long jump and was 100 and 200 runner-up to Fouch. “Most years we have a lot of good distance runners.

We stack the lineup. We have so many good girls and go out there and do our thing.”

Hampshire coach Patti Nihells said this is her largest team ever with 52 athletes.

“We’re more well-rounded this year,” Nihells said. “We used to be really good in the 800 on up, so it’s nice to get some younger sprinters and use people in the right events, instead of just filling events.

There’s a good healthy competition which we haven’t had in the past. Now, they have to fight for some spots.”

Harvard boys coach Dennis Eisele said the Hornets’ team victory was unexpected.

“I thought we would compete,” Eisele said. “I was hoping we would finish in the top three. Everybody’s pretty competitive here, no one has

that much more than anyone else. It’s good for the kids. This is good for us, we’re pleased.”

Eisele preached to the Hornets to not be concerned about times or distances on the cold, windy day, just to compete.

Distance man Jorge Pichardo won the 1,600 and was second in the 3,200, while Kramer led the way.

“We’re just trying to work hard in practice and get better,” Kramer said. “We always want to impress the coaches and show them we want it.”

Woodstock thrower Phil Krueger took firsts in the shot put and discus and also grabbed fourth in the pole vault. The Blue Streaks’ Kyle Olesen set a meet record with his 6-4 high jump. Olesen’s jump was his personal best in a high school meet.

Olesen came in at 5-8, at which point all the other jumpers were finished.

“It happened that everyone else had a poor day and my day was good,” Olesen said. “I got to stay moving the whole time. I was lucky to get to keep jumping.”

Olesen likely will be the top seed Thursday at the McHenry County Meet and is driven to finish his senior year well.

“I really, really, really want to go to [Class 2A] state, really badly,” he said. “Last year I choked in my sectional [making 5-11, when 6-1 would have made it]. I’ve been trying to work and get there.”

Streaks coach Matt McCulley feels Olesen is right on track.

“He has taken his offseason program and been working since the fall to get ready,” McCulley said. “He’s done a great job with [girls] coach [Steve] Erwin. For any athlete, once they know they can do it, getting that mark is a lot easier.

They feel like, ‘I’ve done it before, I can do it again.’ ”

BASEBALL: JACOBS 4, HAMPSHIRE 1

Jacobs’ Ledinsky unfazed by inexperienced catcher

By CHRIS BURROWS cburrows@shawmedia.com HAMPSHIRE – Jacobs pitcher Nick Ledinsky wasn’t sure what to expect.

When the catcher he had been paired with all season went down with an injury, and the backup catcher wasn’t available, that left inexperienced junior Tim Hubner to call his pitches.

But Hubner performed, Ledinsky adapted, and the Golden Eagles downed Hampshire, 4-1, in a Fox Valley Conference crossover game Saturday.

Starting catcher Greg Sidor exited the game in the third inning with a jammed thumb on his nonthrowing hand, and backup catcher Aaron Meciej was already in the game as Ledinsky’s designated hitter.

“When that injury happened I had to bring in a guy that probably has caught twice in his life,” Jacobs coach Jamie Murray said.

“When you’re used to a guy, and some new guy comes in ... the rhythm is not necessarily there. Tim did a did a nice job coming in.”

Ledinsky struck out six, walked one and allowed no earned runs on four hits in a complete game for Jacobs (9-1 overall, 2-0 FVC Valley).

“It was a little bit different,” Ledinsky said of Hubner behind the plate. “I’m not used to how he calls the game, but as the game progressed, I got used to it.”

Hampshire leadoff hitter Piotr Barnas (1 for 2) reached on an infield error in the first inning and scored on a fielder’s choice off the bat of Michael Laramie for an early lead that the Whip-Purs (3-5,

Sutherland says, ‘There’s no end in sight, I love what I do’ • PREP ZONE Continued from page C1 “I don’t go by milestones,” Sutherland said. “I’m blessed to be teaching at a good school with good athletes, I’ve had great assistant coaches and all those things make such a huge difference.”

While Sutherland downplays his role, others grasp the impact he has made.

“He’s everything you want coaching your kid,” said Crystal Lake Central athletic director Jeff Aldridge, the Tigers’ former baseball coach. “He’s the epitome of what high school sports should be all about. I don’t think it’s about the 500 wins to him, it’s about all the games he’s coached and lives he’s touched and will continue to touch. I can’t say enough good things about him.”

After Saturday’s game, the Trojans (10-3 overall, 5-0 Fox Valley Conference Valley Division) handed Sutherland a card they had signed to commemorate the victory. Right fielder

Zach Marszal, who pitched four innings Saturday, said Sutherland’s rapport with his players goes a long way to C-G’s success.

“He’ll never really get too down on you about anything,” Marszal said. “He’s always trying to get you to improve as a player and as a person off the field. He just tries to treat each player the same.”

Shortstop Jeremy Vasquez was honored to be there for Sutherland’s No. 500.

“I don’t think he expected us to know that much about it,” Vasquez said. “He wants to win and do what’s best for the team.

Today we let him do the breakdown after we talked. Usually he chooses a player who yells, ‘We be …’ and the rest of us yell, ‘C-G!’ Today, he did it. He deserved it.”

Sutherland, 56, says people assume he will retire when his sons – senior Michael and sophomore Matt – graduate. That’s not in the game plan, and at the current pace of 20-plus wins a season, he should go well past 600.

“With Matt being a sophomore, I can’t imagine college costs are going to go down,” Sutherland said. “So it makes no sense for me to retire and then pay for college with a lesser salary. Besides that, I enjoy my [math] teaching job and enjoy my coaching job.

There’s no end in sight, I love what I do.”

0-5 FVC Fox) failed to build on.

“We had opportunities,” Hampshire coach John Sarna said. “We got picked off at second twice, and that didn’t help. When you’re in a tight ballgame, you can’t make those mistakes, and we did.”

Matt Hickey (1 for 2) bunted to load the bases in the top of the second for Jacobs, and Connor Conzelmann scored Aaron Meciej on a sacrifice fly to center field that tied the score. Jon Berndt scored the go-ahead run on a passed ball.

Conzelmann, a senior outfielder, struck again in

the fourth inning, when he drove in Aaron Traub, and he crushed a ball to deep center field in the seventh inning. He finished 2 for 3 with two RBIs and two doubles.

Even with Ledinsky’s pitch count starting to soar and Hampshire threatening in the bottom of the seventh, Murray remained confident in his starting pitcher and Hubner.

“We have six guys that can start, and we’ve used six different starters this year,” Murray said. “We weren’t nervous. Nick’s been in big

games for us for the last year and a half.”

Hampshire starter Danny Keller struck out three, walked three and allowed three earned runs on five hits in six innings, but Sarna was proud that he quieted the bats of Jacobs’ No. 3 and No. 4 hitters, Kale and Ben Murray (04).

“I coached both those guys when they were freshmen, and they love to go to the opposite field,” Sarna said. “So we wanted to go in on their hands, and we did a good job.

We just beat ourselves today.”

BASEBALL: WOODSTOCK 2, DUNDEE-CROWN 1

Woodstock’s Ferguson makes early lead hold up in FVC crossover game

By PATRICK MASON pmason@shawmedia.com CARPENTERSVILLE – A couple of early runs were all Woodstock pitcher Alex Ferguson needed Saturday morning.

The Blue Streaks managed to score a run in each of the first two innings before being blanked the rest of the way but it was just enough as Ferguson kept the DundeeCrown hitters off balance in a 2-1 Fox Valley Conference crossover victory Saturday.

“Great outing by Ferguson,” Woodstock coach John Oliveira said. “He pitched a really, really good game.”

Ferguson struck out eight while allowing one hit through six innings. He was effective in working the corners and keeping the ball down in the zone, which made for a lot of ground ball outs.

With a game-time temperature hovering around 40 degrees, the pitchers tried to stay as warm as possible, but

finding a consistent grip on the ball proved to be a challenge. Although Ferguson allowed only one hit, he hit three batters and walked another, but he avoided the big inning with strikeouts.

“It was a little cold out there when the wind would pick up, which made it tough,” Ferguson said of his control, “but I always would find a way to get it back together.”

The two early runs were all the Blue Streaks (2-3 overall, 1-3 FVC Fox Division) could muster against Chargers starting pitcher Tyler Lewan, who dazzled in tough situations.

Woodstock had the bases loaded in the third and fourth innings but couldn’t push across a run as Lewan jammed the hitters and forced routine groundouts.

But because Ferguson was pitching the way he was, the missed opportunities didn’t haunt the Blue Streaks.

“It’s one of the things that could have flipped the

momentum,” Oliveira said.

“We left six runners on base in two straight innings and [Ferguson] comes in and pop, pop, pop shuts them right down.”

The Chargers (5-4, 3-1 FVC Valley) were able to convert a walk into a run in the sixth, but that was all they got.

“We just didn’t have any timely hitting,” D-C coach Jon Anderson said.

Oliveira replaced Ferguson in the seventh in favor of 6-foot-3 left-handed closer Jacob Ellegood with a 2-1 lead.

Ellegood induced a soft pop-up to the second baseman and struck out the next batter, but with two outs the Chargers made it interesting.

Zach Girard got his team’s second hit of the day, but Ellegood struck out Garrett Ryan to end the game.

“My ball has a good tail to it at the end,” Ellegood said.

“I have faith in my team, and it feeds my mentaility to just go after the hitters. Closing it out is the best feeling in the world. It’s so great.”

Kyle Busch sweeps weekend at Texas The ASSOCIATED PRESS FORT WORTH, Texas – Kyle Busch took advantage of a late caution to regain the lead and held on for the final 16 laps after the last restart Saturday night to win the Sprint Cup race at Texas, completing a NASCAR weekend sweep.

Busch followed Martin Truex Jr. for about 50 laps before a yellow flag for debris with 21 laps left. Busch took the lead off pit road during the caution and charged forward with a strong restart in his Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota.

It was the second time this season, and seventh time in his career, that Busch won Cup and Nationwide races in the same weekend. He was the polesitter Saturday night, and won the Nationwide race Friday night on the 1½-mile, high-banked track.

Busch, who also won both

races at Fontana last month, led 171 of 334 laps for his 26th career Cup victory.

Truex was trying to win for the first time since June 2007, but his winless streak reached 210 races when he finished a half-second behind Busch.

Truex came into the race 25th in points with no laps led, but had his Michael Waltrip Racing Toyota in front for 142 laps at Texas.

“Debris huh????” Truex tweeted about the caution that cost him the lead.

Busch has 111 career victories in NASCAR’s three top series – 26 in Sprint Cup, 55 in Nationwide and 30 in Camping World Truck.

Carl Edwards, a three-time winner at Texas who had his seatbelt come loose during the race, finished third ahead of Roush Fenway teammate Greg Biffle.

Next for the Hawks

Ray appreciated the advice, but all along, he was determined to return. He had played hockey since age 4, when Paul Emery enrolled him at his company’s hockey school. Ray started as a defenseman before his competitiveness prompted a change.

“He played in Cayuga, and the goalie wasn’t that great,” Paul Emery said. “He was getting tired of losing, so he decided to be in net for a while. And that was it.”

But Ray’s hip injury could have been it, for good.

Like most athletes, Emery is understated. He credits teammates for his great season. He downplays the pain and the hurdles both physical and mental that he had to leap.

“It was a different situation, but it was just a bunch of little steps, you know?” Emery said. “It was painful for about a month. That part was really tough.

“But after that, it was just little steps to get back. Start walking. Try to get on the ice. And then try to play well enough to play pro hockey.”

The Hawks offered him a tryout before the start of last season.

Emery seized the opportunity, and he hasn’t looked back.

“Anything you go through is beneficial if you learn from it,” Emery said. “It’s something that definitely has shaped me one way or another.

“I don’t regret it. If I had the option for it not to happen, I’d rather have it not happen. But it’s something in the past that I can draw from.”

Now, Emery is focused on the future, which is just how he prefers.

The near future will include a playoff run. How long that run lasts is anyone’s guess.

Regardless, Paul and Sharlene plan to be there, cheering for Ray to take his next step.

“It was good to have him home,” Sharlene Emery said.

“We were close, but I know it was very hard for him to go through that painful part of it.

“I’m so glad he’s better now. We don’t know how long it’s going to last or anything, but you know what? Let’s just go for the ride for now and see where it ends.”

Overanalyze charges late to win Arkansas Derby

GRAND RE-OPENING

Continued from page C1 “I’d hit the button [on my bed] and go up in the morning and watch some TV,” Emery said. “I had the laptop there every once in awhile. That was it.”

The Hawks’ journey went like this: Regular season – playoffs – championship – parade.

Emery’s journey went like this: Surgery – hospital bed – wheelchair – crutches – walking.

Now, Emery and the Hawks are together. They’re not walking. They’re sprinting.

Which is remarkable.

In the spring of 2010, Emery was diagnosed with avascular necrosis in his right hip, a condition that eats away at the bone. It was the same condition that ended Bo Jackson’s career, although Jackson did not find out until it was too late.

Emery’s hip had not fully collapsed when he was diagnosed, but it was on its way.

Surgery brought no guarantees. Emery underwent about a six-hour procedure on the campus of Duke University in Durham, N.C., to remove a dead bone from his hip and replace it with a healthy bone from the middle section of his fibula.

After the bone graft was complete, Emery headed to his parents’ house in Cayuga, Ontario. It was a one-floor, open-concept house, which made it easy to move some furniture and set him up in the living room.

Sharlene Emery stayed home from work to care for her son. She was a personal support worker at a nursing home, so she was used to caring for people and helping them with their daily needs. She and Paul Emery monitored Ray’s medication, helped to change his bandages and told him to stay positive.

No one knew whether Ray would play hockey again.

They hoped he could walk OK. Doctors spoke in “ifs” and “maybes” and “buts” while Ray fought to get healthy.

“They say childbirth is one of the worst pains,” said Sharlene, mother of three boys – Ray, Andrew and Nicholas.

“Well, you know what, I’ve been through that.

“But to see Ray in that much pain? No sleep. Your muscles are torn apart.

They’re putting in a new bone. That’s all got to be attached. That’s just invasive.”

Ever the caring mother, Sharlene Emery advised her son to be open to a future that did not include hockey.

If he couldn’t play again, that would be OK, she told him.

Who knew what doors might open for him personally and professionally?

CHICAGO – Watching his players reach base but rarely score is already becoming tiresome for Cubs manager Dale Sveum.

And there’s still 151 games remaining.

For as inept as the Cubs’ offense has performed through the first 11 games of the season, it should come as no surprise that one of the worst offenses in baseball – their batting average, on-base percentage and average with runners in scoring position rank 27th or worse among the 30 teams – failed again to take advantage of their starting pitcher’s quality start Saturday against the Giants.

Cubs starting pitchers own a 3.00 ERA with six quality starts in 11 games after a six-inning effort Saturday from Jeff Samardzija. Yet the offense hasn’t shown up. The Cubs are averaging 3.1 runs a game, and they squandered an opportunity to move one game under .500 in a 3-2 loss to the Giants. They left seven runners on base and went 0 for 6 with runners in scoring position.

“It’s hard not to do that because you’re caught up in the moment,” outfielder Scott Hairston said of trying too hard at the plate. “We have been facing good pitching, but we’re good hitters. I think it’ll come around eventually. We haven’t been getting breaks.”

Next for the Cubs San Francisco at Cubs, 1:20 p.m. today, WGN, AM-720 Samardzija (1-2) allowed two runs on seven hits while walking only one, but a high pitch count limited his innings, and he was pulled after 100 pitches. He should have exited the game in line for the win. The Cubs’ wasted a twoon, no-out situation in the second after a double steal that was set up by Alfonso Soriano’s single and Hairston getting hit by a Madison Bumgar-

ner slider. But two strikeouts and an intentional walk later, Samardzija grounded out to end the threat, leaving the bases loaded.

Four times the Cubs’ leadoff hitter reached base, however, they never scored.

Dioner Navarro’s pinch-hit home run in the seventh, his second in two games, accounted for their only two runs of the game.

“We had a chance to take the lead a couple times before they scored, which, obviously, changes the game around all the time when you don’t score first,” Sveum said. “We didn’t put the ball in play a couple times when guys were in scoring position. Obviously, that’s the difference in the game

Fujikawa goes to DL, so closer by committee

By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO

ERA in five appearances.

mmontemurro@shawmedia.com

Closer by committee: Fujikawa’s injury has forced manager Dale Sveum to find another closer for the second time within the Cubs’ first 11 games of the season.

Sveum will approach who pitches in ninth-inning save situations based on matchups. Right-hander Shawn Camp and left-hander James Russell are the first choices.

Sveum said he doesn’t plan to use Marmol in save situations right now.

“That’ll be on down the road if anything like that happens,” Sveum said of using Marmol. “I want to keep him in the Quick hits: Steve Clevenger underwent an MRI Saturday after suffering an injury on his game-ending strikeout swing. The Cubs believe he hurt his left oblique on the play. ... Pitcher Scott Baker, who is on the 60-day DL as he rehabs from Tommy John surgery, was at Wrigley Field Saturday for an evaluation from Dr. Stephen Gryzlo. …

Third baseman Ian Stewart (left quad strain) flew to Iowa on Saturday to begin his rehab with the Cubs’ Triple-A team. … Starting pitcher Scott Feldman (back tightness) will have his next start skipped.

He was originally slated to pitch Tuesday against Texas and is now scheduled to pitch Saturday at Milwaukee.

CHICAGO – Cubs reliever Kyuji Fujikawa thought he could pitch through discomfort in his throwing arm.

The issue cropped up a couple of days ago, but it finally became too much for Fujikawa, who was put on the 15-day disabled list before Saturday’s game with a muscle strain in his right forearm. Right-handed reliever Rafael Dolis was called up from Triple-A Iowa after posting a 3.86 ERA in three relief appearances.

Through his interpreter, Fujikawa said there wasn’t one pitch during a specific outing that caused the injury, rather the discomfort progressively became worse.

“Being in an important role with the team, if it’s not helping the team and hurting them, then I think it’s better to make that decision,” Fujikawa said of going on the DL. Fujikawa, who recently took over the closer’s role from Carlos Marmol, has experienced this injury while pitching in Japan, and he said it caused him to miss up to 10 days one or two times.

Before Friday’s game, in which he blew the save, Fujikawa thought about telling the Cubs he couldn’t pitch because of the discomfort. He is 1-0 with two saves and a 12.46

INDIANS 9, WHITE SOX 4

Grand slam buries Sox The ASSOCIATED PRESS CLEVELAND – Mark Reynolds came to Cleveland with the reputation of being a hitter who packed plenty of power.

Through the first 10 games, he’s proving that to be true.

Reynolds’ fifth-inning grand slam keyed Cleveland’s 9-4 win over the White Sox on Saturday.

“He’s so strong and when he’s swinging the bat like that, it’s so pretty to watch,” Indians manager Terry Francona said of Reynolds, who leads the team with five homers and 13 RBIs.

Reynolds made enough contact off Sox ace Chris Sale to turn Cleveland’s 3-2 lead into a comfortable margin.

“I was looking to put the ball in the air,” said Reynolds, who tied a career high with five RBIs. “It wasn’t an easy day to get it out of the park, but it’s never an easy day here, so far.”

Zach McAllister (1-1) pitched into the seventh.

Sale (1-1) gave up Swisher’s home run in the first and allowed a career-high eight runs in 41/3 innings. The lefthander lost to the Indians for the first time in 15 career appearances, including four starts.

GIANTS 3, CUBS 2 Tipping point: Cubs starter Jeff Samardzija was locked in a pitchers’ duel with Giants left-hander Madison Bumgarner through four innings before the defending World Series champions broke through. The Giants scored three runs in a three-inning span, and the Cubs’ failed to take advantage of their opportunities, going 0 for 6 with runners in scoring position.

On the mound: Samardzija (1-2) took the loss despite a six-inning outing in which he surrendered two runs on seven hits. Leadoff hits in the fifth and sixth innings cost him, however, as both later scored to give the Giants a 2-0 lead. A right-handed-heavy lineup couldn’t produce against Bumgarner (3-0).

At the plate: Dioner Navarro became the third player in Cubs history to hit a pinch-hit home run in back-to-back games with his homer in the seventh against Bumgarner. Alfonso Soriano accounted for three of the Cubs’ seven hits, all singles, while Starlin Castro (1 for 4) extended his hitting streak to seven games.

Under the radar: Cubs pitchers have avoided giving up potentially costly home runs. Their five home runs allowed are tied for the fewest in the majors. A Cubs pitcher hasn’t surrendered a homer in 45 innings, since Dan Uggla hit a solo home run off reliever Hisanori Takahashi in the eighth inning April 7 at Atlanta.

– Meghan Montemurro besides mistakes on defense.”

Samardzija didn’t condemn the offense after the loss, even shouldering some of the blame for failing with runners in scoring position.

“You can only control what you can control out there,” Samardzija said. “I was 0 for 2 at the plate with a [strikeout] myself, so I didn’t do my part.”

The Cubs’ struggles to capitalize with runners on base can’t continue if they plan to avoid another 100-loss season. They’re 12 for 80 (.150 average) with 24 strikeouts with runners in scoring position, though there’s no single player to blame. Of the 15 players to record at least

one at-bat with RISP, just two (Nate Schierholtz and David DeJesus) are hitting above .200, and the two outfielders have combined for six of the Cubs’ 18 RBIs. “Yeah, it’s a little bit frustrating,” shortstop Starlin Castro said. “It’s tough. ... We try to get some runs, but it didn’t happen.”

8BUSINESS ROUNDUP Turning Point dinner, auction on April 26 HUNTLEY – Turning Point, McHenry County’s only comprehensive domestic violence agency and shelter, will hold its annual fundraising auction April 26 at Jameson’s Charhouse, 12860 Del Webb Blvd., Huntley.

The evening will begin with a cash bar and silent auction at 6:30 p.m. followed by dinner and live auction.

The live auction will feature items donated by community businesses, individuals and organizations. Among the items that will be up for bid will be a Royale red enamel hinged bracelet and ring donated by Dalzell & Co. in Crystal Lake.

Other items to be auctioned are a golf package offering several foursomes of golf at area courses, Brunch and Bocci at Pinstripes of Barrington and a wheelbarrow full of chocolate.

Tickets are $75 and may be reserved by calling 815-338 8081.

Main Street celebrates its 20th year Community leaders from across Illinois marked the 20th anniversary of the state’s Main Street economic development program recently with a rally emphasizing the thousands of jobs it helps create.

Downtown Crystal Lake Main Street is a Premier member of the program and Executive Director Diana Kenney was the featured speaker on the program with Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon and state Sen. Pamela Althoff.

“For my community of Crystal Lake, Illinois Main Street has enabled us to take a struggling downtown and turn it into a thriving downtown,” Kenney said. “This wasn’t accomplished by a handout – for we get no funds from the state.

This was accomplished by a handup; by encouraging us to respect our history, build a strong organization, fill our empty spaces with businesses, and bring people together to celebrate this success.

“All across the state, dozens of Illinois communities have experienced the same success through the support of the Illinois Main Street Program,” she continued. “Our task is not done; for there is always unfinished work, which we are dedicated here to continue.”

Illinois Main Street has produced more than $675 million in private investment in downtowns, along with $250 million spent on public improvements since 1993. That means a net gain of more than 1,200 new businesses and 5,400 full-time jobs.

Illinois Main Street is part of a successful national movement to revitalize America’s traditional downtowns, neighborhood business districts and urban corridors.

“The downtowns of Illinois communities are full of history. We want to help them make even more history,” said Amy Martin, director of the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency. “Working together, we can reinvigorate them while preserving their beauty and architecture.”

Forty-four communities are part of Illinois Main Street, from Waukegan in the north to Golconda in the south. Many are small towns, but Main Street Illinois also includes cities like Bloomington, Rock Island and two areas in Chicago.

“Downtowns and neighborhood business districts can account for nearly one-third of a community’s job and revenue sources. Downtowns also define the local identity and ‘sense of place,’” said Christina Rogers, the Illinois Main Street coordinator.

“Our commitment to Illinois Main Street must remain solid as a strong force of towns, and by our examples and efforts, we can help more communities throughout the state of Illinois achieve success through preservation-based economic development of their own historic downtown districts,” Kenney said.

Dianna O’Connor, owner of The Freeze in Crystal Lake, makes a new menu for the coming season. O’Connor plans to open the shop today.

In season Businesses prepare for warm-weather customers

By BRETT ROWLAND browland@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – With spring off to a wet and cold start, seasonal business owners are busy preparing for a rush of customers this summer.

This week Dianna O’Connor prepared signs, ordered supplies, and started stocking the kitchen at The Freeze, an ice cream shop on Route 14 in Crystal Lake that will be packed with families on hot days this summer.

O’Connor, with help from family and employees, scrubbed and spruced to get the seasonal business ready to open Sunday.

“It’s a four- to fiveweek process to clean up, sanitize, and get the place looking nice after winter,” said O’Connor, 50, who has owned The Freeze for the last 17 years.

In addition to other preparations, O’Connor and others come up with a signature sundae for each summer. This season’s creation hadn’t yet been named as of early last week.

Recipes for The Freeze’s famous cheese fries and Coney dogs won’t change.

O’Connor said expensive, high-quality cheese sets

‘Bootcamp for a Cause’ at Edge Strength CARY – Edge Strength & Conditioning, 720 Industrial Drive, #132, in Cary is holding a Bootcamp for a Cause every other Saturday.

For a minimum $10 donation, participants get a 45- to 60-minute workout. All proceeds go to various charities.

Past charity boot camps have benefited McHenry Council for Children with Disabilities, and the Cary-Grove Food Pantry. The drop-in fee is always a $10 minimum donation.

“Come get a great workout with great people at Cary’s top personal training facility,” said Mike Spagnola, owner/ head coach. “Everyone is welcome.”

Dianna O’Connor prepares The Freeze for a new season. her cheese fries apart and the Coney dogs are made according to a secret family recipe.

O’Connor, who spent summer days at The Freeze as a child, has many loyal customers. The first few weeks of the season often feel like a family reunion, as longtime customers stop by to pick up their favorite treats.

“They’re like our fam-

ily,” she said.

Elsewhere in McHenry County, garden centers, construction companies, marinas, landscaping companies, some restaurants, and many other businesses are getting ready for their busiest time of year.

Before the McHenry Outdoor Theater opens for the season May 3, owner Scott Dehn has a lot to do.

He’ll be organizing an effort to repaint the theater’s seven-story tall screen, setting up concession operations, and grooming the grounds of the drive-in.

He’s also laying out plans to save the muchloved theater as studios phase out 35mm movie prints.

How much is your business worth?

“What is my business worth?” is a common question asked by small business owners. Unlike the value of publicly-traded stock that can be readily determined, there can be many answers for a privately-held enterprise depending on the details behind the query.

For small businesses, valuations are performed for various purposes such as for compliance, specific transactions, personal financial planning, and litigation. In each of these cases, to properly find the answer to the question, the definition, or standard, of value must be designated.

For compliance purposes, business valuation engagements generally have a pre-determined set of parameters and definitions. For closely held enterprises, in the case of estate or gift tax-related valuations, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 59-60 to clarify its position. This ruling specifies that, for IRS purposes, the “fair market value” of a business or interest is defined as “the price at which the property would change hands between a willing buyer and a

Accounting Michelle DellaMaria willing seller when the former is not under any compulsion to buy and the latter is not under any compulsion to sell, both parties having reasonable knowledge of relevant facts.”

For compliance with other IRS reporting requirements such as in the case of an asset sale transaction, the purchase agreement will typically detail how both parties are to file the specific figures with the IRS. This breakdown is an important part of the negotiation process since there could be significant tax consequences to each party as a result of this determination of assigned values.

In the case of a single transaction such as the purchase or sale of a partial or full interest in a company, the value loses the “hypothetical” aspect found in the IRS definition of fair market value. Each actual ownership transfer takes on its own value based

on the motivations of the parties. A specific buyer may have synergies or may be interested in obtaining a competitive advantage that would result in a higher price. Or vice versa, a seller may be in a hardship and willing to take a lower price than may be accepted in other conditions. These nuances are sometimes referred to as investment or intrinsic value.

For personal financial planning such as in the case of a buy-sell agreement between owners or for estate planning purposes, an owner may not need formal assurance or an “opinion” of value, but rather seeks a “ball park” figure. In this case, perhaps, the owner and the business valuation analyst may follow an agreed-upon understanding of assumptions which will result in a “calculated” value.

Lastly, for litigation purposes such as divorce or shareholder disputes, the value definition may be “fair value” which is driven by case law and is ever-evolving and often determined by the courts. In other situations such as in a lost profits claim, there could

be generally accepted methods to estimate the sought-after figures.

When answering the question, “how much is my business worth?” one must clearly identify the purpose of the question and ultimately determine which standard of value applies. A different result will be identified depending on the facts and circumstances. For example, the value for a minority gift in the eyes of the IRS would be different than the same minority interest in a shareholder dispute case. Or, the value for the sum of all minority interests would not likely be the same as the value of the enterprise taken as a whole.

In these cases, a certified business valuation professional can help sort through the nuances to be sure the proper result is found when determining business value.

The availability of motion pictures in the early 1900s opened a whole new world of entertainment possibilities.

Jim Dvorak opened a movie theater in the Prokop garage building. In 1923, Joseph Kosatka bought the Dvorak business and built The Grove theater building. It became a mainstay of the Fox River Grove entertainment world for 32 years.

The theater was so popular it was necessary to add a balcony in 1927. The theater featured a cry room so mothers with young babies

could enjoy a movie without disturbing others. A smoking room was available for men.

Ticket holders also benefited from many promotional ventures as the theater offered free china, linens and towels.

A pipe organ, expertly played by Warren Kolby of Crystal Lake, gave drama to silent films. When “talkies” came in, he played the organ before the film started.

The theater went out of business in 1957 when the building was sold.

Safe is the new sexy

By MATTHEW CRAFT and STEVE ROTHWELL The Associated Press NEW YORK – For stock investors, safe is the new sexy.

Health care companies like Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer are surging as investors buy stocks that give them what they used to get from bonds — a steady investment with a regular payout. Consumer staples stocks like Proctor & Gamble and utilities are also charging higher.

These stocks – which offer good dividends and can grow regardless of the state of the economy – show that investors are hungry for more income, but aren’t ready to take on too much risk.

“Defensive sectors, especially those that have these attractive dividend yields have been the investment of choice for those that are looking to dip their toes back into the water,” says Stephen Parker, a portfolio manager at JPMorgan Private Bank.

The Federal Reserve’s efforts to stimulate the U.S. economy – holding interest rates close to zero and spending $85 billion a month on bond purchases – have pushed bond yields so low that investors are being forced to look elsewhere to find income.

At the same time, people are getting comfortable with the idea of holding stocks again after being burnt by the market collapse that followed the financial crisis and the onset of the Great Recession.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 index is up 135 percent from its recession low on March 9, 2009. Housing is recovering, companies are hiring and corporate profits are strong.

“Investors are tired of missing out on the rally that we’ve seen in stocks but, they’re

not willing to go full in,” says Brad Sorensen a director of market and sector research at Charles Schwab. With socalled defensive stocks, people are “hedging their bets on the stock market a little bit.”

Stock mutual funds took in $38.2 billion of net deposits in the first three month of the year, compared with an outflow of $4.6 billion last year, according to Lipper fund flow data.

The demand has contributed to the stock market’s jump in 2013. The Dow Jones industrial average is up 13 percent while S&P 500 has climbed 11 percent.

Leading the gains are health care stocks. They have climbed almost 20 percent followed by consumer staples at 16.5 percent and utilities at 15.3 percent. Meanwhile, the industries you would expect to do well during a recovery are lagging. Energy companies, which often lead the pack during times of growth, have gained 8.1 percent this year.

It’s easy to see the attraction of stocks.

Johnson & Johnson has a dividend yield of 3 percent, compared with a yield of 1.9 percent for its top-rated bonds. The company’s products range from baby oil to medical devices.

Procter & Gamble, which makes necessities like Pepto Bismol and Tide detergent, has a dividend yield of 2.8 percent. That’s a higher than the company’s bonds, which yield 2.2 percent. Investors could also see the stock price rise.

P&G has returned 19 percent this year, including a 56 cent dividend payment it made in January. Johnson & Johnson has also returned 19 percent, including a 61 cent payment to shareholders in February.

Don’t ask for a Murphy visit Dear Dave,

DAVE SAYS Dave Ramsey

Is there ever a time you should dip into emergency fund savings in order to pay off your home early?

– Eric

Dear Eric, The only time I would advise this is when your emergency fund is too big, and you have a very small amount left to pay on the house. Keep in mind that your emergency fund should be three to six months of expenses, not three to six months of income.

Besides, paying off the house doesn’t fall into the category of an emergency. The fact that you have to pay for your house doesn’t catch anyone by surprise.

I understand it can be very tempting to throw a bunch of money at your

• SEASON Continued from page D1 In 2012, Dehn launched an campaign with online crowdfunding site Kickstarter to raise $130,000 to convert the theater to a digital movie format instead of its current 35mm set-up. Because the Kickstarter effort fell nearly $100,000 short of its goal, no money was invested, Dehn said.

This season, he’s launching another drive to keep theater in business with a similar crowd-funding site called Indiegogo, which allows investment even if the ultimate goal isn’t reached.

house, get rid of the mortgage payments, and own it outright. But I wouldn’t drain my emergency fund to make it happen – even if it meant being completely debt-free sooner. Life happens, and the moment you write that big check and weaken your emergency fund, the central unit will go out, the roof will spring a leak, or you’ll have major repair issues with a vehicle.

When you do things like that, you’re just begging for Murphy to come visit. And that’s not my definition of financial peace!

Dear Dave, My husband and I have a baby and are trying to live on a budget and pay off about $14,000 in debt. He wants to spend $100 a month for a date night, but I think this is too much under the circumstances. I’m a stay-at-home mom right now, and after taxes he makes about $3,200 a month. What do you think?

– Ashley

Dear Ashley,

You’re just a little bit apart on the particulars in this area.

I think you back this amount down to $40 or $50 for now. That’s plenty for a reasonable dinner and perhaps a baby sitter for a couple of hours. If you have family or friends nearby, you might not have to figure baby-sitting expenses into the equation at all. Keep in mind, too, that going out on a date doesn’t have to mean spending money.

Be creative and make sure you find ways to have “us” time on a regular basis. But you’re right on this one, Ashley. You can go out and have plenty of fun together without spending a lot of money!

– Dave

You win on this one. If you’d told me you guys make $150,000 a year, then I’d say he was being completely reasonable. But with your income and a lot of debt to boot, it sounds like he’s just looking for an outlet to spend some money. The good thing is you’re working together and beginning to take this personal finance thing seriously.

• Follow Dave on Twitter at @DaveRamsey and on the web at daveramsey.com.

Dehn, the 37-year-old owner of Golden Age Cinemas LLC, said he hopes to raise the full $130,000. At minimum, he would need to raise $60,000 to $70,000 through Indiegogo to secure funding from a bank to cover the cost of the digital upgrade.

Investors will get free tickets and other perks, including the opportunity to watch drive-in movies from the back of the 1963 Dodge pickup truck used in the new Superman film “Man of Steel.”

“This is the big year,” he said. “We’re trying to save the theater.”

It’s also an important year for McHenry entrepreneur Michael Fitch, who is prepar-

ing for what he hopes will be a busy season sealcoating driveways and parking lots.

Fitch, 29, started Sealcoat Pros Inc. in 2012 after having worked in the industry for several years. In recent weeks he’s been ordering supplies and upgrading his equipment.

Last year, he managed to get about 150 projects, in part, by knocking on doors.

Although the small business owner has several projects already booked for this summer, the wet weather has slowed the start of the sealcoating season, Fitch said.

Like most other businesses, there’s not much of an offseason for the owners of many

small, seasonal businesses.

At the end of the sealcoating season, Fitch returns to commercial truck driving.

“I’m small, so I have to right now,” he said.

When the McHenry Outdoor Theater closes in the first week of October, Dehn focuses on his movie theaters in downtown Libertyville, which operate year round.

And after O’Connor closes up The Freeze at the end of the season, she goes back to being a full-time mother of seven. Two of her children, Patrick and Matthew, both play hockey in the winter, which means “there’s never a long break” between seasons.

Salaries Are Rising for Small Business equals a trickle-down effect, as wage growth for larger companies benefits the economic needs of small businesses.

However, in Q3 and for the first time in the history of the PayScale index, smaller companies experienced larger pay increases than their medium, and large-sized competitors.

In Q4, the pay increase gap decreased even further; small business wages grew 2.2 percent, as opposed to 0.9 percent for large companies. While wage growth for small companies still lags, they are finally catching up to their medium-sized and large company counterparts.

According PayScale’s lead economist Katie Bardaro, industries such as Mining, Oil and Gas Exploration, and Utilities have seen strong growth, as well as IT and Telecommunications. Health Care has remained consistent over the last two years, while Professional, Scientific and Tech services

By: Evan Rodd, PayScale

When it comes to salaries, big businesses and large corporations are usually the first to offer positions with high earning potential. Sadly, during the height of the “great recession,” companies of all sizes felt the pinch.

Quarter by quarter, wages, benefits, and employees decreased in number, making way for an economy that showed small business owners very little forgiveness.

Yes, the times have been tough, but the numbers are improving.

The PayScale Quarterly Index from Q4 2012 shows an increase in wages. In fact, growth is the highest it has been in years, showing an overall increase of 3 percent.

Could Small Business Lead the Salary Trend?

As Bardaro notes, this could be a sign of greater economic progress to come.

“Small companies don’t have a corporate HR structure that people have to go through for hiring, so they’re a lot faster-moving,” Bardaro says.

The ability to stay competitive will assure you security, and retain high potential employees.

Monitoring wage trends in several industries is another useful strategy. For many employees, the potential to grow and develop within a company is more exciting that joining the ranks of an established conglomerate.

As long as your pay structure matches industry salary trends, desirable candidates are certain to see the benefit in taking a position with a growing company.

If your staffing needs have already been met, you’ll want to make sure that your compensation plan remains competitive.

Whatever your business strategy, familiarize yourself with current salary data as often as possible. It could make a huge difference in the long-term success of your company.

HOROSCOPE

TODAY - Circumstances that have caused you a great deal of stress and frustration should begin to diminish in the months ahead. Your luck is about to change, letting you thrive in areas where you had failed previously.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- It should be a perfect time to formulate plans lurking in the back of your mind. In fact, you’ll have no trouble thinking big.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- There’s a chance you’ll hear about a new financial opportunity that you’ll want to be a part of.

It’s being engineered by someone whom you made a lot of money with before.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Most anything in which you involve yourself has good chances for success. This is especially true regarding financial matters.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- A situation that you have lost control of is likely to pay off in a big way. It just goes to show you that Lady Luck likes you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Something exciting could develop that will elevate your hopes and expectations. The first sign of it

will come about through one or more of your friends.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Don’t despair if things haven’t been too great lately, especially where your work is concerned. A constructive change is in the making that’ll turn things around quite rapidly.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Even if you think your social life is humming, it could always be better. Some fascinating new friends are on the horizon.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- A condition you’ve wanted to change involv-

ing a loved one is about to start moving in a new direction. You’ll see the first signs of this today.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -Perhaps you’ve been of the opinion that Cupid has lost interest in you. If that’s the case, you’re likely to see him redouble his efforts on your behalf to make up for his neglect.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You are likely to experience a huge shift in conditions that portend benefits for you both career-wise and financially. This wonderful change could be big.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You are likely to see the first signs of a seismic shift in your popularity and influence. Once this begins to happen, it’ll lead to some interesting developments.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- An obstruction that has blocked your progress on many things will begin to vanish. Although it’s a start, the process will take time. Be patient.
