Community groups work to prevent water damage By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com AND JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Volunteers and prisoners in Nunda Township worked side-by-side Friday to fill sandbags in preparation for continued flooding in McHenry County. The McHenry County prisoners and volunteers planned to fill 12,000 bags in addition to the 12,000 that were filled Thursday. “They all came together for the community,” Nunda Township Highway Commissioner Don Kopsell said. “It’s really great.” As of Friday evening, the Fox River was at 12.23 feet at Algonquin – almost 3 feet above flood stage – and is expected to crest Saturday night or early Sunday morning at 12.8 feet, lower than previous National Weather Service estimates. Water levels are expected to begin dropping Monday morning, but will not go below “major flooding” levels until about midday Wednesday, according to the National Weather Service. While waiting for the waters to

WATERTOWN, Mass. – Lifting days of anxiety for a city and a nation on edge, police captured the surviving Boston Marathon bombing suspect, found bloodied in a backyard boat Friday night less than 24 hours after a wild car chase and gun battle that left his older brother dead and Boston and its suburbs sealed in an extraordinary dragnet. “We got him,” Boston Mayor Tom Menino tweeted. A cheer erupted from a crowd gathered near the scene. “CAPTURED!!!” police added later. “The hunt is over. The search is done. The terror is over. And justice has won. Suspect in custody.” During a long night of violence Thursday and into Friday, brothers Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev killed an

He was hospitalized in serious condition, unable to be questioned about his motives.

FOX RIVER GROVE – Before moving forward with a possible ordinance to regulate home tours, the Village Board is seeking an outside legal opinion. The Village Board, in a 4-3 vote this week, decided to spend up to $4,000 to have an additional attorney review the legality of a proposed home tour ordinance. The village is looking into this type of ordinance because of complaints surrounding tours taking place at Bettendorf Castle, a house and grounds modeled after a castle in Luxembourg that includes turrets, a drawbridge and a dungeon.

“I’m just not content 100 percent with the methodology we’ve chosen to do this which is to put an ordinance without understanding the effects of that ordinance and whether it can be challenged legally.” Steve Knar Fox River Grove trustee “We have a situation that we need to address,” Trustee Steve Knar said. “I’m just

Marathon aftermath leaves me tired, angry There’s been no shortage of news this week, but nothing has been as intriguing as the Boston Marathon bombing and its aftermath. The tentacles on this story have been far-reaching in many directions, with local connections, and have affected everybody differently. We’ve gone from the initial reports of two explosions at the finish line (I first read this on Twitter) to a major metropolitan city being shut down amid a manhunt. (It’s likely we’ve even taken another step forward between the time this column was printed on newsprint Friday night and the time it ended up in your driveway.) In between, we’ve seen a city and a country come together and media outlets embarrass themselves. We went from reports of a suspect in custody to

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Jason Schaumburg nobody in custody to the FBI showing us the faces of two people it wanted in custody. We went from trying to figure out who the two suspects were to one being killed and the second being on the run – all in a span of 12 hours. Even after all of that, there’s one part of the story I can’t stop thinking about: Martin Richard. Richard was the 8-year-old boy killed by one of Monday’s bombs. He was one of three people killed. Krystle Campbell, 29, and Lu Lingzi, 23, also lost their lives. My heart goes out to their families and friends.

Richard’s death hit me harder than the others because of my children. Anytime a child dies, I feel terrible. It wasn’t until I had children of my own that I also started feeling angry when I’d read or hear of the death of a youngster, whether it be at the hands of a parent or – as in this case – the result of a stranger’s act. I first learned of Richard’s death on Facebook when I saw a picture of him in a Boston Bruins hockey sweater at a hockey rink. That immediately made the connection with my kids even stronger, since they both play hockey. It’s hard to think, “What if that was my son?” You read about how the Richard family was together eating ice cream and cheering marathon runners one moment and a bomb goes off the next.

You feel disbelief and an uncontrollable wave of sadness. Then you see a photo of Martin Richard standing near bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev moments before the bombs went off, and you still feel an overwhelming sense of disbelief. Sadness is replaced by anger. Right now, I feel tired. Physically and emotionally. Mostly, I’m tired of innocent people, especially children, losing their lives to needless violence.

Boy Scouts propose to lift gay ban for youth By DAVID CRARY The Associated Press NEW YORK – Searching for compromise on a divisive issue, the Boy Scouts of America is proposing to partially lift its long-standing exclusion of gays – allowing them as youth members but continuing to bar them as adult leaders. The proposal, unveiled Friday after weeks of private leadership deliberations, will be submitted to the roughly 1,400 voting members of the BSA’s National Council during the week of May 20 at a meeting in Texas. The key part of the resolution says no youth may be denied membership in the Scouts “on the basis of sexual orientation or preference alone.” A ban would continue

NESQUEHONING, Pa. – Inmates at a northeastern Pennsylvania prison are going to make their own beds. But it’s probably not what you think. Carbon County Correctional Facility’s warden, Joseph Gross, said Wednesday at a prison board hearing that he looked into purchasing an additional 18 bunk beds. At $700 each, that’s well over $10,000. The (Lehighton) Times News says the warden found out that for around $3,400 they could buy the raw materials and make their own bunk beds because an inmate assigned to work release is a welder. Gross says the inmate has volunteered to build the beds. He will be under the supervision of the prison’s maintenance supervisor. The warden asked the board’s permission to spend the $3,400 and they agreed.

“The policy is incoherent.

Gay-rights groups, which had demanded a complete lifting of the ban, criticized the proposal as inadequate. “Until every parent and young person have the same opportunity to serve, the Boy Scouts will continue to see a decline in both membership and donations,” said Rich Ferraro, a spokesman for the gay-rights watchdog group

Chad Griffin, president of the Human Rights Campaign, said the BSA was too timid. “What message does this resolution send to the gay Eagle Scout who, as an adult, wants to continue a lifetime of Scouting by becoming a troop leader?” he asked.

tirety. “The policy is incoherent,” said Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council. “The proposal says, in essence, that homosexuality is morally acceptable until a boy turns 18 – then, when he comes of age, he’s removed from the Scouts.” Perkins predicted that the proposed change, if adopted, would subject the BSA to “crippling lawsuits” because it would no longer be able to argue that excluding gays was integral to its basic principles. Indeed, the BSA has anticipated hostile reaction, estimating that easing the ban on gay adults might prompt between 100,000 and 350,000 members to leave the organization, which now has 2.6 million youth members.

Ill. Senate seeks alternative to gun measures By JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – A week of desk-pounding, name-calling, bluster about walking away from negotiations and threats about a state of Wild West justice left Illinois House members no closer to an agreement on allowing the public possession of weapons, and sent them scouting for an alternative. Lawmakers face a June 9 federal court-ordered dead-

line to legalize the carrying of concealed weapons. But it remains to be seen whether a negotiated proposal that could satisfy both violence-weary Chicagoans and Second Amendment loyalists downstate can be found next week in the Senate. In most of the state, the compromise would require that gun permits be given to anyone who meets background-check requirements, while in Cook County local authorities would have

power to deny concealed carry permission in individual cases. The Republican negotiator on that bill said it’s a reasonable compromise. But National Rifle Association lobbyist Todd Vandermyde offered a terse appraisal of the measure’s chances. “We’ll kill it,” Vandermyde said. Gun-rights advocates were heartened Wednesday when a proposal to restrict who gets to

8STATE BRIEFS Detention hearing set for jailed hospital owner CHICAGO – The jailed owner of Chicago’s Sacred Heart Hospital will learn if he’ll be freed on bail or if he’ll have to stay put behind bars pending trial. Authorities arrested Edward Novak of Park Ridge earlier this week along with another hospital executive and four doctors in an alleged kickback conspiracy. During an initial court appearance, a federal judge ordered that the 58-year-old Novak, the second executive and a doctor be held at least until a Friday detention hearing. The men will enter pleas later.

Autopsy planned on body found in Oak Brook creek OAK BROOK – The DuPage County coroner says he’ll conduct an autopsy on the body of a man found in Salt Creek in Oak Brook.

tote guns was handily defeated in the House. But those same supporters were stunned when their own measure, requiring gun permits for anyone who meets background-check requirements, fell seven votes short. The House concealed-carry sponsor, Rep. Brandon Phelps, a southern Illinois Democrat, said he believes some House colleagues held back because they wanted to see a proposal offered by Chicago Democrat-

ic Sen. Kwame Raoul, who has been negotiating with Republican Sen. Tim Bivins of Dixon, agreed to a carve-out for Cook County because the deadline is looming and Democrats hold such a strong majority in the Senate. The plan appears to give both sides what they want. The issue has divided along the lines of so-called “may issue” versus “shall issue” laws. Under “may issue,” local authorities are empowered to

deny a gun permit even if an applicant passes a criminal background check. A “shall issue” plan such as Phelps’s means if an applicant passes the check, he must be issued a permit. But Vandermyde is concerned that, among other things, the Raoul-Bivins proposal would cause problems in communities such as Elgin and Hinsdale, where the city limits cross over into Cook County.

Young N. Koreans train to seek ‘revenge on U.S.’ By JEAN H. LEE

“Because of the present situation, I am trying to study harder, because I really think that’s how I can get my revenge on the American imperialists: by getting top marks in class.”

The Associated Press PYONGYANG, North Korea – North Korea’s newest batch of future soldiers – scrawny 11-year-olds with freshly shaved heads – punch the air as they practice taekwondo on the grounds of the Mangyongdae Revolutionary School. Students and teachers here say they’re studying harder these days to prepare for a fight. Across the country, banners, slogans and artwork have been redrawn to focus on fighting “the imperialist Americans and their traitorous followers,” a reference to South Korea. Slogans on improving North Korea’s economy had dominated since 2009, but anti-American propaganda has re-emerged over the past year, particularly following U.S.-led censure of North Korea’s decision to launch a long-range rocket and test a nuclear bomb. At the military school,

On Thursday, students at the Mangyongdae Revolutionary School in Pyongyang, North Korea, work on computers. where students work on desktop computers without Internet access and practice their English with chants such as “The respected Marshal Kim Jong Un is our father,” classwork is infused with conflict. “Because of the present situation, I am trying to study harder, because I really think that’s how I can get

my revenge on the American imperialists: by getting top marks in class,” one student, Jo Chung Hyok, told The Associated Press. “It’s my revolutionary duty,” Jo said. “I’m working extra hard to get top marks in military subjects like tactics and shooting.” The uptick in anti-Amer-

ican sentiment comes on the heels of international condemnation and U.N. sanctions for North Korea’s long-range rocket launch in December and its underground nuclear test in February, which Pyongyang accuses Washington and Seoul of instigating. Joint U.S.-South Korean military drills south of the border also have incensed Pyongyang. The anti-American campaign also comes as North Korea prepares to mark the 60th anniversary in July of the close of the Korean War. The three-year conflict pitting North Korea and China against U.S.-led U.N. troops ended in a truce, not a peace treaty. The continued division

of the Korean Peninsula, and the presence of 28,500 American troops in South Korea, has rankled North Korea’s leadership. For weeks, North Korea has threatened to attack the U.S. and South Korea for holding joint military drills and for supporting U.N. sanctions. Washington and Seoul say they’ve seen no evidence that Pyongyang is actually preparing for a major conflict, though South Korean defense officials say the North appears prepared to test-fire a medium-range missile capable of reaching the American territory of Guam. Both sides have said that in order for dialogue, the other

side needs to act. The U.S. says Pyongyang must bring down tensions and honor previous disarmament agreements before talks can begin. North Korea laid out a long list of preconditions for resuming talks Thursday, including the lifting of U.N. sanctions, the end of U.S.-South Korea military drills, the withdrawal of U.S. nuclear weapons assets from the region and a halt to criticism of North Korea. South Korea’s Foreign Ministry called North Korea’s demands illogical, but in Washington, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry put a more positive spin on Pyongyang’s response. “It’s the first word of negotiation or thought of that we have heard from them since all of this has begun,” he said Thursday before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. “I’m prepared to look at that as at least a beginning, not acceptable obviously, and we have to go further.”

Federal agents wearing hazardous material suits and breathing apparatus inspect the home and possessions of Paul Kevin Curtis on Friday in Corinth, Miss.

Experts: Ricin relatively easy to make The ASSOCIATED PRESS OXFORD, Miss. – The ricin mailed to the president and a U.S. senator is relatively easy to make but generally can’t be used to target a large number of people, experts say. A Mississippi man, Paul Kevin Curtis, 45, has been charged with mailing letters laced with the naturally occurring toxin to President Barack Obama and U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker. Authorities say he sent a third threatening letter to a Mississippi judge, though that letter is still being tested for the presence of ricin. Curtis has denied making the ricin and mailing the letters. The FBI has not yet revealed details about how the ricin was made or how lethal it may have been. It was in a powdered form inside the envelopes, but the FBI said no one has been sickened by it so far. A senate official said

“Any kid that made it through high school science lab is more than equipped to successfully make a poison out of this stuff. Any fool can get recipes off the Internet and figure out how to do it.” Murray Cohen, founder of Frontline Foundation Thursday that the ricin was not weaponized, meaning it wasn’t in a form that could easily enter the body. More than a dozen officials, some wearing hazardous materials suits, were searching the home Friday where Curtis was arrested in Corinth, Miss. FBI spokeswoman Deborah Madden would not say if authorities have found ricin or materials used to make it in Curtis’ home, and officials have not provided details about how Curtis may have either obtained or made the ricin. Law enforcement agents

should be able to test the toxin found in the letters to determine its potency and purity, as well as learn what chemicals may have been used to extract it from widely available castor beans, said Murray Cohen, the founder of the Atlanta-based Frontline Foundation, which trains workers on preparedness and response to bioterrorism and epidemics. Those chemicals might then be able to be linked to purchases made by Curtis or materials found in his home. Curtis’ ex-wife has said he likely didn’t have the knowhow to make ricin, and she did

not know where he would buy it because he was on disability. But Cohen said ricin was once known as “the poor man’s bioterrorism” because the seeds are easy to obtain and the extraction process is relatively simple. “Any kid that made it through high school science lab is more than equipped to successfully make a poison out of this stuff. Any fool can get recipes off the Internet and figure out how to do it,” Cohen said. Those seeds, which look a bit like coffee beans, are easy to buy online and are grown around the world; they are often used to make medicinal castor oil, among other things. However, using the seeds to make a highly concentrated form of ricin would require laboratory equipment and expertise to extract, said Raymond Zilinskas, a chemical and biological weapons expert.

Judges’ lawsuit: Disability system ‘in crisis’ By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Social Security’s disability program is overwhelmed by so many claims that judges sometimes award benefits they might otherwise deny just to keep up with the flow of cases, according to a lawsuit filed by the judges themselves. The Social Security Administration says the agency’s administrative law judges should decide 500 to 700 disability cases a year. The agency calls the standard a productivity goal, but the lawsuit claims it is an illegal quota that requires judges to decide an average of more than two cases per

workday. “When the goals are too high, the easy way out is to pay the case,” said Randall Frye, president of the Association of Administrative Law Judges and a judge in Charlotte, N.C. “Paying the case is a decision that might be three pages long. When you deny benefits, it’s usually a 15- or 20-page denial that takes a lot more time and effort.” The lawsuit raises serious

questions about the integrity of the disability hearing process by the very people in charge of running it. It comes as the disability program faces serious financial problems. The disability program’s trust fund will run out of money in 2016, according to projections by Social Security’s trustees. At that point, the system will collect only enough money in payroll taxes to pay 79 percent of benefits. That would trigger an automatic 21 percent cut in benefits. Congress could redirect money from Social Security’s much bigger retirement program to shore up the disability program, as it did in

1994. But that would worsen the finances of the retirement program, which is facing its own long-term financial problems. The lawsuit was filed by the judges’ union and three judges on Thursday in federal court in Chicago. It names the agency and Acting Social Security Commissioner Carolyn Colvin as defendants. Colvin took over in February after Commissioner Michael Astrue’s six-year term expired. The union announced the lawsuit at a press conference Friday in Washington. A Social Security spokesman declined to comment. In an interview, Astrue disputed the union’s claims.

WASHINGTON – The United States is poised to significantly expand its non-lethal military aid to the Syrian opposition as European nations weigh easing an arms embargo to potentially supply the rebels with arms and increase pressure on President Bashar Assad to step down. The European Union arms embargo expires at the end of May and may be allowed to expire or be modified to only block weapons that are headed to Assad’s government. If that happens, it will amount to a new threat to give weapons to the rebels, and test whether the Syrian president reacts to the increased pressure – or if stronger international intervention might be tried. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is expected on Saturday to announce plans to give opposition forces up to $130 million in defensive military supplies – possibly including body armor, armored vehicles, night vision goggles and advanced communications equipment. U.S. officials said exactly what is given, and how much it will cost, will be determined at a Saturday meeting Kerry will attend in Istanbul, Turkey, of the Syrian opposition leadership and their main international allies. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to preview Kerry’s announcement publicly. On Thursday, Kerry said the conference aims to get the opposition and all prospective donors “on the same page” with how Syria will be governed if and when President Bashar Assad leaves power or is toppled. “The hope is that that will then create a confidence level about who is getting what kind of aid from whom,” he told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. With Syria’s civil war in its third year, the U.S. and its European and Arab allies are struggling to find ways to stem the violence that, according to the United Nations, has killed more

Secretary of State John Kerry listens while testifying Thursday on Capitol Hill in Washington. than 70,000 people. Despite international pressure, Assad has managed to retain power far longer than the Obama administration first expected. “We need to change President Assad’s calculation, that is clear,” Kerry said. He said the government’s survival largely depends on the continued support it gets from Iran, its proxy Hezbollah, and Russia. “That equation somehow has to change,” Kerry said. He said boosting the size and scope of non-lethal assistance to the rebels is one way to convince Assad that he must go. Despite pressure from Congress and even advisers within his own administration, President Barack Obama has said he has no plans to send weapons or give lethal aid to the rebels. Instead, the U.S. has been shipping food and medical supplies directly to the Free Syrian Army since February and later expanded the aid to include defensive military equipment. So far, the U.S. has provided an estimated $117 million in non-lethal aid to the Syrian opposition, said White House National Security Council spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden. Sen. John McCain, one of the top Republicans on the Senate Armed Services Committee, renewed his call Thursday for U.S. military action in Syria, including airstrikes on government aircraft and weapons but not sending in American soldiers. He said the steps he recommends would give moderate and secular opposition forces a better chance to succeed without having to depend on extremist groups that are supporting the rebels.

An Egyptian man throws a stone Friday during clashes between rival groups of protesters in Cairo, Egypt. Several hundred supporters and opponents of Egypt’s President Mohammed Morsi clashed near Cairo’s Tahrir Square amid a rally calling on Morsi to “cleanse the judiciary.”

Pro- and anti-Islamist protesters clash in Egypt By MAGGIE MICHAEL and SARAH EL DEEB The Associated Press CAIRO – Supporters and opponents of Egypt’s Islamist president battled in the streets near Tahrir Square on Friday as an Islamist rally demanding a purge of the judiciary devolved into violence. The rally centered on a contentious aspect of the country’s deep political polarization – the courts. Islamist backers of President Mohammed Morsi say the judiciary is infused with former regime loyalists who are blocking his policies, while opponents fear Islamists want to take over the courts and get rid of secular-minded judges to consolidate the Muslim Brotherhood’s power. But beyond the specific issues, the scenes of youths from both sides waving homemade pistols and beating each other with sticks il-

lustrated how entrenched violence has become in Egypt’s political crisis. In recent weeks, several marches and rallies by the country’s various camps have devolved into street battles, fueling the bitterness on all sides. Thousands of Morsi supporters – mostly backers of the Muslim Brotherhood and Islamist hard-liners – held rallies Friday outside the High Court building in Cairo and in the coastal city of Alexandria, demanding the “cleansing of the judiciary.” The marches appeared aimed at presenting Islamists’ actions on the courts as a popular “demand of the revolution.” Islamist lawmakers who dominate the legislature have announced plans to begin debating a bill regulating the judiciary, presenting it as aimed at ensuring the independence of courts they

contend are dominated by supporters of ousted leader Hosni Mubarak. But opponents believe the Islamists aim to remove judges and install new ones who support their agenda. In an interview with a Kuwaiti newspaper this month, the former head of the Brotherhood, Mehdi Akef, called the judiciary “sick” and “corrupt” and said a new law could force out 3,500 of Egypt’s approximately 13,000 judges and prosecution officials by lowering the retirement age to 60 from 70 – though it remains to be seen if lowering the age will be in the final bill. “Go for it Morsi and we are behind you. Cleanse the judiciary,” thousands of Islamists chanted outside the High Court building. Some, mainly followers of ultraconservative cleric Hazem Abu Ismail, waved black Islamic flags.

Earthquake in China Sichuan kills 12 By DIDI TANG The Associated Press BEIJING – A powerful earthquake jolted China’s Sichuan province Saturday near where a devastating quake struck five years ago, leaving at least 12 dead and more than 100 injured and prompting state media to warn the casualty toll could climb sharply. The quake – measured by China’s seismological bureau at magnitude-7 and the U.S. Geological Survey at 6.6 – struck the steep hills of Lushan county shortly after 8 a.m. toppling buildings, many of them older brick structures. People ran into the streets in their underwear and wrapped in blankets, ac-

At a glance The quake – measured by China’s seismological bureau at magnitude-7 and the U.S. Geological Survey at 6.6 – struck the steep hills of Lushan county shortly after 8 a.m.

cording to photos posted online. State-run China Central Television reported that at least 12 people were confirmed dead and more than 100 injured. Sichuan Online, the website of the official provincial newspaper, quoted a provincial earthquake bureau official it did not name as saying more than 100 people have been injured or

killed. The quake’s shallow depth, less than 8 miles, likely magnified the impact. The official Xinhua News Agency said that the quake rattled buildings in the provincial capital of Chengdu 70 miles, to the east. It caused the shutdown of the city’s airport for about an hour before reopening, state media said. Lushan, where the quake struck, is home to 1.5 million people where the fertile Sichuan plain meets foothills that eventually rise to the Tibetan plateau. Known for its mountains, the area is near a wellknown preserve for pandas. Social media users who said they were in Lushan county posted photos of collapsed buildings and reported

that water and electricity had been cut off. A man who answered the phone at the Ya’an city government said telecommunications were cut and that medical and rescue teams are on the way to the area. “I felt the strong quake this morning in my office. All drawers of the desk opened and some stuff on the table fell on the floor,” said the man, who refused to give his name, as is usual with low-ranking Chinese government officials. The area lies near the same Longmenshan fault where the devastating 7.9-magnitude quake struck in May 2008, leaving more than 90,000 people dead or missing and presumed dead.

Tip leads to discovery of suspect’s location • BOSTON Continued from page A1 Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, died in the shootout early in the day. At one point, he was run over by his younger brother in a car as he lay wounded, according to investigators. The violent endgame unfolded four days after the bombing and just a day after the FBI released surveillance-camera images of two young men suspected of planting the pressure-cooker explosives that ripped through the crowd at the marathon finish line, killing three people and wounding more than 180. The two men were identified by authorities and relatives as ethnic Chechens from southern Russia who had been in the U.S. for about a decade and were believed to be living in Cambridge, Mass. But investigators gave no details on the motive for the attack. President Barack Obama said the nation owes a debt of gratitude to law enforcement officials and the people of Boston for their help in the

search. But he said there are many unanswered questions about the Boston bombings, including Dzhokhar A. whether the two Tsarnaev men had help from others. He urged people not to rush judgment about their motivations. The breakthrough came when a man in a Watertown neighborhood saw blood on a boat parked in a yard and pulled back the tarp to see a man covered in blood, authorities said. The resident called 911 and when police arrived, they tried to talk the suspect into getting out of the boat, said Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis. “He was not communicative,” Davis said. Instead, he said, there was an exchange of gunfire – the final volley of one of the biggest manhunts in American history. Watertown residents who had been told in the morning to stay inside behind locked doors poured out of their

Drivers honked. Every time an emergency vehicle went by, people cheered loudly. The FBI was swamped with tips – 300,000 per minute – after the release of the surveillance-camera photos, but what role those played in the overnight clash was unclear. State Police spokesman Dave Procopio said police realized they were dealing with the bombing suspects based on what the two men told a carjacking victim during their night of crime. The search by thousands of law enforcement officers all but paralyzed the Boston area for much of the day. Officials shut down all mass transit, including Amtrak trains to New York, advised businesses not

to open, and warned close to 1 million people in the entire city and some of its suburbs to unlock their doors only for uniformed police. Around midday, the suspects’ uncle, Ruslan Tsarni of Montgomery Village, Md., pleaded on television: “Dzhokhar, if you are alive, turn yourself in and ask for forgiveness.” Until the younger man’s capture, it was looking like a grim day for police. As night fell, they announced that they were scaling back the hunt and lifting the stay-indoors order across Boston and some of its suburbs because they had come up empty-handed. But then the break came and within a couple of hours, the four-day ordeal was over. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was captured about a mile from the site of the shootout that killed his brother.

Jackson Road in Riley Township is washed out after heavy flooding from the Coon Creek. the Chicago area is the Des Plaines River, which already is sending record levels of wa-

ter down through the heavily populated western suburbs and into the Illinois River to

the southwest. In Des Plaines, the river was at 11 feet on Friday – about 6 inches above flood stage – and isn’t expected to crest in some locations for another 48 hours, said National Weather Service hydrologist Bill Morris in Chicago. What was so unusual about this week’s storm, Morris said, was its reach – spreading rain evenly over entire watersheds. “The volume of water was much greater than you might see, say, in summer when you have flash flooding that occurs in much more localized areas,” Morris said.

Some trustees concerned over potential legal costs • ORDINANCE Continued from page A1 not content 100 percent with the methodology we’ve chosen to do this which is to put an ordinance without understanding the effects of that ordinance and whether it can be challenged legally.” Outgoing Trustee Mike Ireland, who voted against seeking an outside opinion, has introduced draft language that would require a special-use permit for home tours, as well as other requirements. “It makes no difference what this board is going to do,” Ireland said. “Do nothing, you’re going to be sued, do something, you’re still going to be sued. You’re still going to court, this is not going away.” The proposed ordinance still has blanks, as the Village Board would need to determine how many tours would be permitted. Knar said Village Administrator Karl Warwick re-

“It could cost the village a lot of money to defend it and win it. That’s a big concern for any board. The tougher decision, is not so much the legality, but knowing that threat ... knowing that might run up some costs, where does this fit in your line of priorities?” John Donahue, village attorney quested to have an outside opinion. Who the village consults with has yet to be determined. Knar, village Trustees Joanna Colletti and Suzanne Blohm and village President Robert Nunamaker voted in favor of hiring an additional attorney. Trustee Michael Schiestel and outgoing Trustee Gerald Menzel voted against this move. “We’ve spent a small fortune on attorney fees over this issue,” Menzel said. “I don’t know why we would need to spend another $4,000 on something.” He said there are concerns from residents about the buses that come through on the

tours. “We ought to be looking at developing an ordinance restricting weight of buses ... on those types of streets,” Menzel said. “There’s no place to park, the roads aren’t the greatest. It seems to me the real concern is traffic, the safety issue of traffic.” Knar said having another attorney look at the situation is a wise expenditure. “One of the reasons we want to get a second opinion is to avoid ... getting into another lawsuit,” Knar said. “The second thing, restricting buses, you’re creating a restriction in a residential zone similar to what you’re doing right now. Both of those could be challenged.”

Robert Hanlon, attorney for Mike Strohl, owner of the Bettendorf Castle, said if the village were to adopt an ordinance restricting home tours, “the Strohls would exercise their rights in an appropriate form and at an appropriate time if it’s necessary.” If something was passed, Hanlon said, Strohl would move “as quickly as prudent.” He added that emotion was driving this ordinance. “Those emotional decisions generally turn out not so good,” he said. Village attorney John Donahue said he is comfortable with the legality of the proposed ordinance. A possible lawsuit is something the village has to consider. “It could cost the village a lot of money to defend it and win it,” Donahue added. “That’s a big concern for any board. The tougher decision, is not so much the legality, but knowing that threat ... knowing that might run up some costs, where does this fit in your line of priorities?”

Police guard the apartment building where the sister of the Boston marathon bombing suspects is believed to live Friday in West New York, N.J.

Bomb suspects’ N.J. sister ‘upset,’ skeptical of news By SAMANTHA HENRY The Associated Press WEST NEW YORK, N.J. – The FBI on Friday removed a computer from the New Jersey home of a sister of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects. Police said she was cooperating with the investigation and was “heartbroken, surprised and upset,” though she told reporters she wasn’t sure the accusations against her brothers were true. The woman, identified by local police as Ailina Tsarnaeva, told federal agents she had not been in contact with her brothers for years, according to Police Director Michael Indri. “The main concern was to confirm that there was no contact made one way or the other, and I’m confident that the FBI has confirmed that,” he said. The woman’s three-story brick building, across the Hudson River from New York City, remained cordoned off as federal agents searched the home and left with a computer and other electronics. Early in the day, she spoke through a barely open door to News12 New Jersey and The Star-Ledger, telling them she was sorry for the families that lost loved ones “the same way I lost my loved one.” “I’m hurt for everyone that’s been hurt,” she told the TV station and newspaper. Her brother Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, was killed overnight in a shootout with

police outside Boston. Her younger brother was taken into custody Friday evening after a manhunt that left the Boston metropolitan area virtually paralyzed. “He was a great person,” the woman said of her dead brother. “I thought I knew him. I never would have expected that from him. He is a kind and loving man. The cops took his life away just the same way he took others’ lives away, if that’s even true. At the end of the day, no one knows the truth.” “I have no idea what got into them,” she said. Indri said the woman was cooperating with the FBI. “She’s heartbroken, surprised and upset like we all are,” he said. A woman who described herself as a friend of Ailina described a different relationship between the woman and the elder brother. Vicki Colon, of Passaic, said the woman feared him because “he used to beat her.” Colon said she met the two brothers during a visit to Massachusetts a couple years ago. She said the younger brother was very quiet. The sister last spoke to Colon on April 6, Colon’s birthday. Colon said she saw a Facebook posting Thursday night that led her to believe the woman may not have known her brothers had been identified as suspects. “It just said, ‘God is great, I love my family,’ basically,” Colon said.

Runners give inspiration The Northwest Herald Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs up and thumbs down: Thumbs up: To Linda and Dan Bailey and Sue Gruner. What occurred at the end of Monday’s Boston Marathon was scary. It replayed on TVs across the county throughout the week. But for the local runners who were there, it will not serve as a deterrent. The Baileys will keep running. Dan now wants to run his first marathon in Milwaukee this fall after spending Monday watching Linda complete the race less than a minute before the first bomb exploded. That’s dedication. Thumbs down: To the McHenry County Board for reversing itself when it voted earlier this week to repeal its 2009 ban on video gambling in unincorporated areas of the county. We’ve been opposed to video gaming at area restaurants and bars since the Illinois General Assembly first proposed it many years ago. Called the crack-cocaine of gambling, video gaming is extremely addictive and can do more harm than good to families and communities. Thumbs up: To Angelo’s Restaurant and the crew of the Food Network’s “Restaurant Impossible” for sprucing up this Woodstock Square institution this week. The popular eatery has been a longtime staple downtown and a survivor in tough economic times. What familyowned business couldn’t use a lift to help keep it successful? Whatever changes celebrity chef Robert Irvine made, hopefully loyal customers will still get to enjoy their favorite meals and the publicity will bring in some new diners. Thumbs down: To flooding. Heavy rains this week wreaked havoc across most of northern Illinois, causing flooding in homes and businesses and closing roadways. Algonquin is under a flood warning along the Fox River, which is expected to crest Sunday morning. These past few days have served as a reminder that Mother Nature always is the one in control. Thumbs up: To all the people who responded to tragedies this week with courage and grace. Medical staff already at the Boston Marathon, first responders and everyday people rushed to help those injured Monday by bombs; medical experts say the quick response helped reduce the number of fatalities. Same goes for those who responded to an explosion at a fertilizer plant in West, Texas, as they helped evacuate people from nearby buildings, including a nursing home. Locally, we saw people filling sandbags in an attempt to stymie the rising floodwaters. We thank you for your compassion and sacrifice.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Feelings rule today To the Editor: How did we get ourselves into this mess? Our national security is at risk. Our allies are questioning our allegiance. Our enemies think we’re weak. Our economy is ready to break. Obamacare is proving to be a disaster. Owning a home has become a financial liability. Personal responsibility is becoming extinct. We are still waiting for President Obama to admit who’s responsible for Fast and Furious and Benghazi. Who better knows than President Obama, Hillary Clinton, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, the NAACP, the Black Panthers, and the entire Democratic Party for masquerading they care while continually enabling their followers to be dependent victims? Getting their vote has become rhetoric cheap. If that’s not enough, Planned Parenthood’s signature contribution is the killing of unborn life. The list continues with trying to explain to our kids same-sex marriage. Today, feelings rule. Everything and anything is the right and fair thing to do when we rely on our personal feelings. Whether

we can afford it or whether it is morally right doesn’t matter. Our country was founded on searching the word of God for direction. Let’s continue this practice. Jim Doll Huntley

Could Hillary Clinton ever be our Thatcher? WASHINGTON – Who thought that in stuffy old England in the 1980s a woman could act like a man and thrive, but here in the New World, Hillary Clinton still has to watch her p’s and q’s in 2013? Margaret Thatcher didn’t change a hair, hedge a bet or trim a sail. She never had to be told to lean in because she never leaned back. She was certain, opinionated and strident to the point of, yes, shrillness. Listen to her on gay rights: It’s fingernails on a chalkboard. In the United States, three decades after Thatcher, a woman still has to back into her positions. Watch Hillary come out for same- sex marriage in a well-rehearsed video – after it was entirely safe. (Every Democratic senator but three politically vulnerable residents of red states has done so.) After leaving her post as secretary of state, she laid low, got some rest and cleaned out her closets. When she re-emerged, she did so at soft-focus women’s events and at her husband’s philanthropy, the Clinton Global Initiative. If there is one thing Clinton has learned through 40 years or so of feminine ambition, it is to be less Thatcher and more Ginger Rogers: Do everything a man does but backward and in high heels, as Ann Richards memorably phrased it. (What’s more, do it with a smile so ingratiating that it’s practically an apology.) When Clinton first ran for the Senate in

8THE FIRST AMENDMENT

VIEWS Margaret Carlson New York, she began her campaign with a listening tour. Yes, one of the most articulate and intelligent women in politics was mute for months as she traveled the state entreating voters to accept her. Her coyness isn’t in her nature, but it appears to be in ours. What Britain accepted in 1979 – a powerful female leader – we still talk about like a total eclipse of the sun; we may see one in our lifetime, but maybe not. After winning election, Clinton came to the Senate and promptly disappeared, placating not just then-Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, who had expressed hopes he might never see her, but also her Democratic brethren, who feared an eclipse of their own. While Thatcher thrust herself forward as a conviction conservative, Hillary learned the art of leaning back. Early on, she had changed her name to Clinton to help her husband in Arkansas. She apologized for practicing law. For her husband’s first presidential run in 1992, she changed her persona as often as her hair, desperately trying to modulate the public’s visceral reactions to her. Two for the price of one? Working instead of staying home to bake cookies? Not

so fast, little lady. Once in the White House, she worked tirelessly to fix health care. What was she thinking? The failure of Democrats to pass a bill was laid entirely at her feet. In fact, many things that went wrong in the Clinton White House (the travel office fiasco, personnel clashes) were often traced to her butting into the man’s world of the West Wing. What worked best was standing by her man. That, and the sympathy borne of domestic betrayal and humiliation, finally raised Clinton’s favorability ratings enough to run for the Senate. Everyone thinks she’s running for president in 2016. But Clinton knows from sad experience that the minute she steps into the ring, she will no longer be the good girl who knows her place. Would she even be deemed such a formidable candidate if she hadn’t swallowed her pride and once again played helpmate after 2008 – this time at Barack Obama’s State Department? One way to look at 2008 is to say that Clinton was hit by a tsunami called Obama. Another is to conclude that voters were readier to embrace an enigmatic, untested, first-term senator than the nation’s leading female politician. She lost in 2008 because in the U.S., unlike Britain, we still don’t know what to do with an uppity woman.

BARRINGTON HILLS MAN DIES IN CRASH INVERNESS – A Barrington Hills man died after crashing into a school bus Thursday, according to authorities. Steven Schmidt, 50, of 369 Bateman Circle in Barrington Hills, was driving his Nissan SUV west on Palatine Road in Inverness, east of Highland Road, when he crossed into the eastbound lanes and struck a District 15 school bus that had just finished its route. Emergency crews removed Schmidt from the vehicle and took him to Northwest Community Hospital where he was pronounced dead at 4:48 p.m. The Inverness Police Department said it appears the bus driver was trying to take evasive action to avoid Schmidt’s car. The bus driver was taken to St. Alexius, where he was treated and released. Authorities have not determined whether alcohol or drugs were involved, and toxicology results are pending.

NO INJURIES IN WOODSTOCK FIRE WOODSTOCK – No one was injured as a result of a house fire in Woodstock on Friday. The Woodstock Fire/Rescue District responded around 4 p.m. to a fire at 1067 Greenwood Circle, Captain Scott Nieman said. It appeared the fire started in the garage and spread to the first floor of the house, causing about $80,000 in damage. The cause of the fire is under investigation. One of the residents – Nieman said he believed a couple lived there – was home and saw smoke coming through the vents. He evacuated the house and called 911, Nieman said. The resident was not injured, and the couple has a place to stay. The Crystal Lake Fire Rescue Department assisted, and the Marengo Fire Protection District came to respond to any other calls that came in while Woodstock firefighters were on the scene.

Susan Taddy, 17, of Cary reacts after being one of three lucky students whose keys turned on the ignition of a car Friday during the Operation Click banquet at D’Andrea Banquets in Crystal Lake. Operation Click is a teen safe driving program that operates in 39 high schools in northern Illinois and Wisconsin. Students who participate in Operation Click sign a contract at the beginning of the school year to drive safely and those who honor that pledge are given the chance to win a car.

Program offers incentives to help kids adopt safe driving habits By CYNTHIA WOLF editorial@nwherald.com CRYSTAL LAKE – A Harvard High School senior, a Cary-Grove High School junior and a Marengo Community High School junior each became the proud owner of a new vehicle Friday. And none will pay a dime toward the car, tax or license. Jacqueline Jimenez, Susan Taddy and Keegen Zickuhr were the lucky students whose keys turned over the ignitions at the culmination of the Operation Click banquet at D’Andrea Banquets in Crystal Lake.

Perhaps most excited, though, was Taddy’s mom, who kept repeating “Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God!” when her daughter’s turn at the wheel started the 2010 red Chevrolet Aveo. “It’s pretty cool,” 17-year-old Susan Taddy said. “I was the last person [to turn a key], so I was hoping.” Zickuhr held the second-to-last key when he climbed into the 2008 PT Cruiser he won Friday. “I think it’s an amazing thing, just to get kids to drive more safely,” Zickuhr said of the Operation Click program.

County pays Bianchi bill Chairwoman cut check last week By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Without discussion, the McHenry County Board approved the funding from which it paid the $378,327 it owed special prosecutors appointed to investigate vindicated State’s Attorney Lou Bianchi. Tuesday evening’s vote was more of a procedural matter, since the county already paid the bill last week to avoid accruing late fees included in the court order mandating

the payment. A majority of the board’s Finance and Audit Committee agreed last week to let Chairwoman Tina Hill, R-Woodstock, pay the bill immediately. The resolution to take the amount from the contingency fund was approved, 24-0, under the County Board’s routine conTina Hill sent agenda. McHenry County taxpayers to date have paid al- County Board most $780,000 for an chairwoman investigation that brought 32 corruption charges that either were thrown out of court or resulted in acquittals. McHenry County Judge Gordon

Graham appointed special prosecutors Henry Tonigan and Thomas McQueen to investigate claims by Bianchi’s former secretary that he had her do campaign work for him on taxpayer time. A special grand jury handed down 21 corruption counts against Bianchi and six against secretary Joyce Synek. Graham authorized McQueen and Tonigan to expand their investigation, which resulted in three more charges against Bianchi and one each against state’s attorney investigators Ron Salgado and Michael McCleary. In two bench trials in 2011, a Winnebago County judge acquitted Bianchi and Synek of all charges

MCCD passes ‘maintenance budget’ By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com After approving a flat levy in December, the McHenry County Conservation District passed a “maintenance budget” at its meeting Thursday evening, its finance director said. A flat levy means the district isn’t bringing in any additional money over last year, so the budget focuses on maintaining the 25,023 acres under the district’s umbrella instead of creating any new initiatives. The amount of land has grown by 4,322 acres since 2007, when voters approved the issuance of $73 million in general obligation bonds, $62.5 million of which was earmarked for land acquisition.

But over the same amount of time, the number of district full-time employees equivalents has grown to 90.3 from 88.7. “The district has had to become very lean and very efficient,” Finance Director Andy Dylak said. “We couldn’t continue this growth. We’re right at our capacity.” The budget passed Thursday includes $28.4 million of total expenditures through its six funds, a decrease of 8.4 percent from last year. Of that total, $12 million goes toward paying off bonds and $9.4 million is the general fund, from which the district pays most of its operating expenses. Things could get tighter next year as McHenry County’s equalized assessed value – a number based on a

property’s value that is used to calculate property taxes – continues to drop, Dylak said. The Illinois Conservation District Act caps the amount the district can levy for its general fund at one-tenth of 1 percent of the county’s EAV. When the district’s board of trustees passed its levy in December, the district was $575,000 away from the cap. This week, though, the updated EAV for the county was released with a 10 percent drop. The district does have savings it can dip into until the number starts to rise again, Dylak said. It also can continue some of the cost-saving measures it has implemented, including limited attrition and shifting some insurance costs onto employees.

Richmond taps into underused sewer plant By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com RICHMOND – To pay off a $7 million loan from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, the village of Richmond is looking to make its underutilized sewer plant a new revenue stream. The Richmond Village Board unanimously approved a budget Thursday evening for fiscal 2013, which begins May 1. The budget includes about the first six months’ worth of payments on equipment that will allow septic haulers to dump concentrated sewage at the plant – and allows the village to charge them for it. The sewer plant was built in 2004 with the expectation that connection fees from the Prairie Hill subdivision would pay off the Illinois EPA loan, $450,000 in annual payments over 20 years. Because the subdivision was never developed, the income never came in. It also means the plant’s capacity was never reached. The village hopes to tap into that capacity by getting into the septic hauling business. The additional equipment will cost $200,000 over two years, which Village President Pete Koenig considers a long-term investment.

Two injured in Crystal Lake crash

Law passed inspired by Bianchi case • BIANCHI Continued from page B1

H. Rick Bamman – hbamman@shawmedia.com

Two people, one in critical condition and another with injuries that were not life-threatening, were sent to Centegra Hospital – McHenry after a four-vehicle crash at Routes 176 and 31 at about 3 p.m. Friday, according to a Crystal Lake Police Department news release. All four of the vehicles involved were northbound on Route 31, the north side of the intersection. Three of the vehicles had come to a stop when a fourth vehicle hit one vehicle and then hit a second, which forced that vehicle into the final vehicle, the release said. No citations have been issued or arrests made at this point. The names of those involved are being withheld pending notification of family.

DISTRICT 155

Science olympiad teams head to state finals By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – A pair of successful high school science olympiad teams from Crystal Lake District 155 will look to secure a state championship during the Illinois Science Olympiad finals Saturday. Students on Crystal Lake Central’s olympiad team secured a state bid for the eighth time in the past nine years after placing second at regionals last month at the College of Lake County. Crystal Lake South’s science olympiads also made the

trip to the state finals for the sixth consecutive year after a historic best third-place finish at regionals. Neither of District 155’s high school teams has ever won a state championship, but both teams will look to reverse that trend when they face off against the likes of Stevenson High School, New Trier and others Saturday at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. “My assistant coach Brian Pelz and I, along with several volunteer coaches, have watched this team grow and blossom into the kind of kids that any coach or parent could

be proud of,” Central coach Douglas Wilbrandt said. “We hope to do well downstate, but only time, with a little luck mixed in, will tell.” The Central team will send a combination of upper and underclassmen on the 15-member varsity team to compete in 23 events, including forensics, chemistry lab and thermodynamics. The Central team finished 12th last year at state, but Wilbrandt believes the team has improved enough to compete for a title this year. He said numerous students on the team have been working on the science olympiad events

Village negotiating with EPA to reduce payments • RICHMOND Continued from page B1 The village has been negotiating with the Illinois EPA to reduce its annual payments, and at this point, it looks like the loan will be

modified to $375,000 in annual payments over 30 years, Koenig said. That’s still higher than the $250,000 to $275,000 village officials had been hoping for, he said. For the last couple years, the village has been paying in-

terest only in its two annual payments, and even though it has an agreement with the Illinois EPA allowing it to do that again this year, the budget is prepared to make one interest-only payment and one payment that includes a principal payment.

since the summer. “You never know how things work out, but we are ready,” he said. The South team also is taking 14 upper and underclassmen to state, as the team tries to achieve its ultimate goal of a state championship. South coach Katie Bulman said she was proud of the team’s work and dedication to science and engineering, regardless of Saturday’s outcome. “They have truly been a great bunch of kids and a pleasure to learn and grow with,” Bulman said. The varsity students on

Central’s team are Jonathon Bodnariuc, Sofie Bracher, Jake Cannizzo, Paul Geschke, Kush Gupta, Becca Harmon, Greg Harmon, Elisabeth Hoirup, Colleen Laird, Ethan Lockwood, Nick Longfield, Elizabeth Schmidt, Kurt Widhalm, Brenna Wing and Charlotte Wirth. The varsity students on South’s team are Lauren Barmore, Amy Caulk, Zach Clewell, Laura Deemer, Kyle Dinse, Silpa Gali, Nate Grabowski, Scotty Hornbostel, Andy Koltun, Tyler Munn, Mike O’Reilly, Greg Trende, Jeannie Van Vianen and Henry Wu.

without the defense having to call a single witness. The judge threw out the charges against Salgado and McCleary. The County Board unsuccessfully fought the special prosecutors’ bills in court, arguing they should not have been paid $250 an hour, but $91.50 an hour based on the state’s attorney’s annual salary. The county recouped $105,000 from Tonigan’s settlement of a civil-rights lawsuit filed against him and McQueen by the former defendants. The County Board agreed to pay $275,000 to help cover Bianchi’s and Synek’s legal fees in exchange for reimbursement should they receive damages. The lawsuit alleges false arrest, malicious prosecution and conspiracy initiated by Bianchi’s political enemies to remove him from office. Tonigan denied culpability in agreeing to the settlement, but the lawsuit against McQueen is ongoing. McQueen has asked the county to pay for his legal defense. State lawmakers last year passed a law, inspired by the Bianchi case, that puts limits on judges’ ability to appoint special prosecutors. Another McHenry County judge has rejected two other requests to appoint special prosecutors regarding conduct in the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

Banquet focused on dangers of texting and driving • CARS Continued from page B1 “I’m very nervous and excited,” Zickuhr added. Jimenez’ eyes grew large when her attempt started her black 2007 Pontiac G6. “I was like ‘Oh, wow,’ ” she said. “I think it’s a great program.” About 300 people attended the banquet Friday. Operation Click President Sean McGrath, a Crystal Lake patrolman, said the peer-run program offers an extra incentive to help students adopt safe driving habits – including not just buckling up, but also driving sober and not texting and driving. The program began in 1998 with just three Crystal Lake high schools. It now involves students in

39 high schools in northern Illinois and Wisconsin. Cars given away Friday were donated by Courtesy Buick GMC of Crystal Lake, Kunes Country Ford of Antioch and by a financial contribution from the Lake in the Hills Rotary Club, Intren of Union and Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital of Barrington, McGrath said. Students at participating schools sign safe driving contracts, and seat-belt compliance surveys are performed quarterly. From each qualifying school, one to four students are selected to draw a key during the banquet. A good deal of emphasis during the banquet was placed on the dangers of texting and driving, a practice that makes a person 23 more times likely to be involved in a crash. McGrath referred to 2011

statistics that showed that on any given weekday, about half a million people were talking on their cellphones while driving, and 1.2 million were “engaged with their mobile device in some way,” whether it be texting, checking their calendars or using GPS navigation. “So how safe are we?” McGrath asked. He commended participating students, faculty and parents, and said that the program has led to seat-belt compliance among participating schools averaging between 94 percent and 96.25 percent, whereas the state average is 93.6 percent. Some individual schools saw compliance rate increases of as much as 18 percent between pre-program surveys and surveys conducted after the school and its students began promoting Operation Click, McGrath said.

“The Croods” HH½ STARRING: The voices of Nicolas Cage, Ryan Reynolds, Emma Stone and Catherine Keener PLOT: The world’s first prehistoric family goes on a road trip to an uncharted and fantastic world. RATING: PG for some scary action TIME: 1 hour, 32 minutes VERDICT: Cavemen – they’re just like us! – or so “The Croods” seems to be saying with its familiar mix of generational clashes, coming-of-age milestones and generally relatable laughs. The animated adventure features a strong, star-studded cast and dazzles visually in wondrously colorful, vibrant 3-D, but the script doesn’t pop off the screen quite so effectively. The simplistic message here is: Trying new things is good. It’s a useful notion for kids in the crowd to chew on, but their older companions may be longing for something more substantive. Still, “The Croods” is both brisk and beautiful, and should be sufficiently entertaining for family audiences for whom few such options exist these days. And it might be especially resonant with young female viewers, with a strong, resourceful teenage girl at its center named Eep (voiced by Emma Stone in her usual charming rasp). – Christy

RATINGS

HHHH - Excellent HHH - Recommended HH - Not recommended H - Awful

“Filly Brown” HH STARRING: Gina Rodriguez, Jenni Rivera, Lou Diamond Phillips PLOT: A promising hip-hop rhymer from Los Angeles finds herself in a gray area when a record producer offers her a compromising shot at stardom. RATING: R for language, some drug use and violence TIME: 1 hour, 40 minutes VERDICT: As both an actor and a rapper, Gina Rodriguez gives an empowered performance in “Filly Brown,” playing a young Los Angeles woman angling for hip-hop stardom as a means to help spring her mother from prison. But the heavy-handed, untidy story sense of co-directors Youssef Delara and Michael D. Olmos means not everything that surrounds the central figure has the same grit and authenticity. It’s problematic when an audience knows way before the supposedly savvy main character that she’s being taken advantage of by her mother as well as compromised as an artist. But despite the inconsistencies of plot and character, and the unevenness of much of the acting, Rodriguez brings such fire to the part that we keep rooting for Majo even as she makes stupid decisions that bring dire consequences.

– David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter

“42” HHH STARRING: Chadwick Boseman, Harrison Ford, Christopher Meloni, Nicole Beharie PLOT: Jackie Robinson (Boseman) breaks the race barrier in Major League baseball when general manger Branch Rickey (Ford) puts him on the Brooklyn Dodgers’ roster. Robinson endures racism from the stands and in his own clubhouse during his historic rookie season. RATING: PG-13 for thematic elements including language TIME: 2 hours, 1 minute VERDICT: Writer-director Brian Helgeland (who won an Oscar for his “L.A. Confidential” script) tells Jackie Robinson’s incredible story in a fast-paced and entertaining style, even if Helgeland’s history lessons are aimed at a middle-school level. Adults may appreciate the

“Oblivion” HHH STARRING: Tom Cruise, Olga Kurylenko, Andrea Riseborough, Morgan Freeman PLOT: A maintenance worker (Cruise) left behind to repair robots on a post-Apocalyptic Earth sees a spacecraft drop from the sky. He discovers a life pod containing a woman (Kurylenko) who has been in suspended animation for 60 years, and he recognizes her from his dreams. RATING: PG-13 for science-fiction action violence, brief strong language and some sexuality and nudity TIME: 2 hours, 6 minutes VERDICT: This science-fiction opus comes from the same man, Joseph Kosinski, who directed “TRON: Legacy.” Whatever else you can say about him, Kosinski is a genius at building fantastic worlds for the screen. The production design and special effects are outstanding, creating a chilling dystopian wasteland contrasted by the shining futuristic architecture of Cruise’s existence. Typical of heroes in post-apocalyptic science fiction, Cruise is living a lie. As the truth is revealed to him, the plot becomes more and more implausible as it deploys nearly every plot twist ever used in science fiction. The first hour is amazing to see, though. British actress Andrea Riseborough and Morgan Freeman co-star. – Jeffrey

Girl fears she’ll lose touch with best friend far away Dear Abby: I am a 16-yearold girl from Serbia. I have been in U.S. for two years and I’m studying English in an ESL class. I read your column and could use some help to solve my problem because I am very upset. I have known my best friend, “Vanessa,” for a year and a half. She is my age, and we were very close. She had to leave school because her family moved. I can’t visit her because she is too far away. I cried because I don’t know if she is going to remember me or if she is going to forget all about me. I’m so afraid I am going to lose her. Can you

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips help me? – Sad In Buffalo Dear Sad: You are obviously doing well in your ESL studies, and for that I congratulate you. Because you and Vanessa no longer live close does not mean you can’t still be friends. Although she has moved to a different geographical location, you can maintain a friendship because she is as near as your phone or computer. Because you want to still

be a part of her life, keep her updated on what is going on in your life and ask her to do the same. That is the way long-distance relationships are maintained, and some of them have been known to last a lifetime. Dear Abby: I have been dating my boyfriend, “Adam,” for three years. Although we are young, we are serious about our relationship. Not too long after we started dating, Adam began staying over at my house most weekends. I live with my mom, who is 47. For the past year, when Adam comes to visit, my mom has been coming out of her

Read nutrition labels to find the ‘whole’ truth about what you eat Dear Dr. K: These days, everything in the supermarket claims to contain whole grains, from sugary cereals to my favorite chips. How do I know which foods are healthy whole grains? Dear Reader: “Whole grain” has become a healthy-eating buzz-phrase, and food companies aren’t shy about using it. But some of the products we buy may not deliver the healthful whole-grain goodness we’re expecting. And if sugary cereals can tout themselves as a whole-grain food, there’s something amiss. Wheat, rice, barley and oats are all grains used to create bread, cereals and pasta. If those grains are processed heavily before the bread, cereals or pasta are made (such as in white bread or white rice) they’re called “refined” grains. The processing that leads to refined grains removes fiber – and iron and B vitamins – from the grain. If you see the term “enriched grains” on a package, it means the fiber is still gone, but some iron and B vitamins have been added back.

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff So what’s the best way to identify a healthful wholegrain food? Use the 10:1 rule: For every 10 grams of carbohydrate, there should be at least one gram of fiber. Why a ratio of 10-to-1? That’s about the ratio of carbohydrate to fiber in a genuine whole grain – unprocessed wheat. Let’s say the Nutrition Facts label on a package shows that one serving of a whole-grain roll has 23 grams of carbohydrate. Divide that by 10 to get 2.3. It also has 5 grams of dietary fiber, which is bigger than 2.3. That signals a healthful whole-grain food. (I’ve put a sample Nutrition Facts label, along with an explanation of how to calculate the carbohydrate-to-fiber ratio, on my website.) Intact grains – wheat berries, oat berries, brown rice and quinoa, for example – are the best source of whole grains. Ground whole grains

come next, as long as they still deliver a good dose of fiber. To find those, use the 10:1 carbohydrate-to-fiber rule. What’s the good of eating whole grains? Because they have more vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Even more important, they are digested more slowly. When you eat a refined grain, there is a sudden surge of sugar in your blood. That stresses your pancreas, which has a hard time making enough insulin to drive all of the sugar into your cells for energy. The excess sugar gets turned into fat. In fact, people who eat lots of refined grains and few whole grains are more likely to become obese and to develop diabetes and heart disease. People who eat mainly whole grains and keep their total calories in check are more likely to lose weight. I’m not preaching; I’m giving you advice proven to improve your health.

bedroom in her bra and panties, for the most part exposed. She also makes flirtatious comments to Adam I feel are completely inappropriate. I have tried talking to her about it, letting her know how uncomfortable Adam and I and some of my friends are about it. I hoped she would understand, but she continues with the flirting and underdressing. What can I do about this? I’m desperate to try anything. – Desperate In Maine Dear Desperate: You may be desperate, but not as desperate as it appears your mother is for attention. Because talking to her hasn’t helped,

accept she is not going to change her behavior. Have Adam stay over less often. When you meet with your friends, do it at someone else’s house. And if you can afford to move elsewhere, you should consider it. Dear Abby: I am a single mother of a 12-year-old boy. Three or four of his friends are constantly over at our house, and I feel obligated to feed and/or entertain them. Their parents don’t send money for their meals and often don’t even call to check on them, so they are left spending the night here. I don’t mind the boys stay-

ing with us, but I don’t think I should be expected to pay for their food and fun or feel guilty if my son and I eat and they don’t. Any suggestions? –

Single Mom In The South Dear Single Mom: Call the boys’ parents and have a friendly chat with them. I agree the current situation isn’t fair to you, and because the boys are at your home so often, their parents should be chipping in. Alternatively, start sending the boys home at dinner time.

Stars shine at Tiffany’s Sarah Jessica Parker loves her jewelry – but so do a pair of 3-year-old thieves. Parker’s twin daughters Tabitha and Marion get to try on mom’s baubles, and she said “they have walked away with many pieces.” “Nothing of enormous value and I’ve told them basically all of it’s theirs with some set aside for my son,” Parker said Thursday at Tiffany and Co.’s Blue Book Ball. Parker joined actresses Jessica Biel, Kate Hudson, Gwyneth Paltrow and Michelle Williams for the celebration of Tiffany’s Blue Book Collection, inspired by the New York Jazz Age in partnership with the film “The Great Gatsby,” directed by Baz Luhrmann and starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan. Hudson said she has a more whimsical approach to her jewelry box. “I have a theory about jewelry. If you lose it, it’s supposed to be gone. I don’t shed a tear if I lose something,” she said. But if not, she says, “I hold on tight to it.” But when it comes to jewels and baubles, does size matter? “Oh, that’s a good question. No, I think workmanship matters more than size,” Paltrow said. Parker had a heartfelt response, as her modest-sized wedding ring from husband Matthew Broderick is from Tiffany’s. “Not to me, no. I have a beautiful ring that I love very, very much and it’s from Tiffany’s and it’s my most, most favorite ring at all and it’s not as you can see super robust or muscular but I think it’s every bit as lovely as any big-dot rock,” she said.

Prince Harry says he’ll be first to Pole

Kardashian divorce settlement OK’d

Prince Harry says he will take part in a race to the South Pole, leading a team of wounded British military personnel against counterparts from Australia, Canada and the United States. In a tongue-in-cheek challenge to his competitors, the 28-year-old royal said Friday that he would have a cup of tea “ready for you when you join us at the Pole.” Harry and his fellow teammates are taking part in the 208mile Walking With The Wounded South Pole Allied Challenge in November and December of this year – at the height of the Antarctic summer.

The marriage of Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries, which began with a storybook wedding, ended Friday in a grim courtroom with a judge approving a divorce settlement after a protracted legal battle between the former couple. “I think this is a reasonable way to resolve this case,” said Superior Court Judge Hank Goldberg, who did not disclose terms of the settlement. Humphries sent his lawyer but did not appear in court. Kardashian, who is pregnant with a child by her boyfriend Kanye West, appeared in a black silk puffy sleeveless maternity dress embellished with sequins on the skirt.

Fox TV renews ‘Glee’ for 2 seasons

Emmys to expand awards show

The Fox TV series “Glee” will keep on singing for another two years. The network announced Friday it has renewed the show about music-loving students through 2014-2015 – its sixth season. In a statement, Fox Entertainment Chairman Kevin Reilly said “Glee” continues to break new ground as a rare successful TV musical comedy. The show been a music hit as well, with more than 50 million downloads of “Glee” tracks and worldwide album sales of more than 13 million.

A TV miniseries and movie comeback will mean more Emmy Awards than expected at this year’s ceremony. The TV academy’s board of governors said it’s reversing its 2012 decision to combine lead and supporting acting honors for such projects. In a statement, the board said that because of the “unanticipated resurgence” of TV miniseries and movies, it had voted to reinstate the separate acting categories. The board was swayed by a rich field of potential contenders, including Elisabeth Moss and Holly Hunter in Sundance Channel’s “Top of the Lake” and Ben Whishaw and Dominic West in BBC America’s “The Hour.”

Final slice for TV’s ‘Dexter’ The end is coming for Showtime’s serial killer drama “Dexter.” The cable channel said Thursday the series’ upcoming eighth season will be its last. “Dexter” stars Michael C. Hall as a Miami Police Department blood-spatter expert who’s got his own list of murder victims. The drama debuted in 2006 and became Showtime’s first hit series, with a steady performance in the ratings through its run. The final season begins June 30.

CARY-GROVE TRACK AND FIELD ASSISTANT COACH JIM MILLER WAS ...

GIVEN A DEATH SENTENCE “ We had tears in our eyes because we had hope. I’m struggling right now. I’m doing what I need to do. I’m weak, I get fatigued during the day and all of a sudden I’ll have periods where I feel a little bit better. I’m hoping in six months I’ll get rid of the cane and get back to moving like I was in the past.

Jim Miller Cary-Grove assistant track and field coach and PE teacher, on discovering he had Lyme disease, not ALS

Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

Cary-Grove assistant track and field coach and physical education teacher Jim Miller, 56, poses Friday at Cary-Grove High School. Miller was diagnosed with ALS in February, then a month later found out his illness was actually Lyme disease.

COACH ON THE ROAD TO RECOVERY AFTER BEING MISDIAGNOSED WITH ALS By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com

itting on the couch together and watching DVDs isn’t Jim and Vicki Miller’s style. The Millers are more about hiking or biking or playing golf or working out on their Total Gym, the fitness contraption Chuck Norris endorses that supposedly hits all body parts. Recent months have been frustrating for Jim, who lacks his usual energy, and for Vicki, who finds motivation difficult without her hiking/biking/exer-

cising partner. “That part’s really sad,” Vicki said. Sad, but not hopeless. There was little hope two months ago, when Jim, a 56-yearold physical education teacher and coach at Cary-Grove, was examined by a neuromuscular specialist who diagnosed him with ALS. Lou Gehrig’s Disease, as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is known, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. It is a death sentence. A month later, however, the Millers found out Jim had been

BASEBALL: CL SOUTH 11, CARY-GROVE 4

misdiagnosed. Tests eventually indicated Jim’s weakness on his left side, his fatigue, his lack of balance, all were caused by Lyme disease, an infectious disease caused by bacteria from tick bites. Lyme symptoms can be similar to those of ALS. “We had tears in our eyes because we had hope,” Jim said. “I’m struggling right now. I’m doing what I need to do. I’m weak, I get fatigued during the day and all of a sudden I’ll have periods where I feel a little bit better. I’m hoping in six months I’ll get rid of the cane and get back to moving like I was in the past.”

ALWAYS AN ATHLETE Jim Miller grew up as a foursport athlete in Kohler, Wis. He played football in the fall, wrestled in the winter, competed in track and field in the spring and played high school baseball in the summer. A big and powerful-looking man, Miller attended Northwestern University, where he played football and wrestled. His active lifestyle kept him fit and belied his age. His 6-foot2, 235-pound frame makes him look like he still could hold his own in the weightroom with the throwers he coaches on C-G’s boys track team.

Watching Miller slip with his physical problems was painful for those around him during the past six months. “He was a guy who rode his bike everywhere,” Trojans boys track coach Layne Holter said. “A guy who went out of his way to eat nutritious food and exercise and looked much younger. To see him turn into an old man before your eyes is very disturbing.” Most of the problem stemmed from Miller not knowing what was causing his body to fail. What was wrong?

CRYSTAL LAKE CENTRAL 12, WOODSTOCK 2 (5 INN.)

Gators triumph Leverenz ‘awesome’ in varsity debut Get the scores remain undefeated By PATRICK MASON

pmason@shawmedia.com

By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Eric Schiller hadn’t thrown many of his 109 pitches when simply gripping a baseball became an issue. Between the driving winds and Friday’s winter-like temperatures, though, the Crystal Lake South senior pitcher relied on solid defense and a heavy dose of early offense in an 11-4 win over Cary-Grove that kept the Gators undefeated on the season. Schiller overcame his only shaky inning of the day – a

three-run second inning when he allowed an inside-the-park home run and walked three. From there, he settled in despite fighting snowy conditions that weren’t exactly ideal. “I’ve never pitched in this kind of weather before,” Schiller said. “I’m ready for the Alaskan Baseball League. So after the second inning, I just had to throw strikes and let them hit it.” South (10-0, 7-0 Fox Valley Conference Valley Division) gave Schiller plenty to work with.

See GATORS-TROJANS, page C2

CRYSTAL LAKE – When Crystal Lake Central baseball coach Dan Badgley left his home Friday morning, he told his wife that he would be home around 6 p.m. as he fully expected that Friday’s Fox Valley Conference Fox Division game against Woodstock would be postponed because of inclement weather. But when athletic director Jeff Aldridge and Badgley surveyed the field in the early Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com afternoon, they decided they Crystal Lake Central’s Dan Leverenz pitches to a Woodstock batter could get the game in even as during Friday’s game in Crystal Lake. Crystal Lake Central won, 12-2. the White Sox postponed their Leverenz, who was making his first varsity start, allowed five hits, two game against Minnesota at earned runs and struck out 10 in a five-inning, complete-game effort. about the same time.

CLEVELAND – Browns owner Jimmy Haslam pledged to continue running his family’s business – and NFL team – amid a federal investigation into fraud within his company. Haslam said Friday he has no plans to step aside as president of Pilot Flying J despite federal authorities alleging he was aware of a widespread scheme to defraud customers of the truck stop chain.

position. The right-hander gave up three runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out four. Jim Henderson pitched the ninth for his third save in three chances. Cubs manager Dale Sveum was ejected in the sixth inning by home plate umpire Chris Guccione for arguing a called ball from Samardzija on a 2-2 pitch to Braun. Samardzija had some tough luck in the first, needing 27 pitches to retire the Brewers. Norichika Aoki reached on a fielding error by Rizzo at first base to open the inning. Aoki broke for second on the first pitch to Segura. The Brewers shortstop hit the ball squarely to the right side of the infield in what could have been an easy double play ball, but Darwin Barney had vacated the spot to cover second and the ball went into right field for a single, with Aoki taking third.

Gators score 7 runs in 1st • GATORS-TROJANS Continued from page C1 The Gators batted around in the first, scoring seven runs on seven hits, capped by Ryan Wilkening’s two-run triple. The Gators tacked on three more runs in the second, taking advantage of the first of three C-G errors to go along with Michael Danca’s RBI double. Schiller and his defense took things from there. relying mostly on his fastball and knuckle curve, Schiller kept the Trojans’ hitters off-balance, allowing only one more run the rest of the way. “Schiller just came out and threw a gem,” said South first baseman Max Mietzler, who finished 4 for 4 in the win. “He kept the ball down on a day like today when it was windy and it was blowing out. So all he had to do was keep the ball down.” The Trojans cut into the early deficit, but then hurt themselves with sloppy defense. In addition to the throwing error that led to two

South runs in the second inning, C-G (11-3, 5-1 FVC Valley) struggled with making basic plays and decisions, keeping it from regaining any momentum. Daniel Vilardo had a home run and Jeremy Vasquez had an RBI single, but it was far from enough to make up for the costly miscues. “Our defense has been good, but we struggled tremendously,” C-G coach Don Sutherland said. “It was bad.” Sutherland said the early seven-run deficit wasn’t a concern, especially with the gusty conditions that blew routine fly balls out of the reach of outfielders. But South’s early offense made life easy for the Gators and for Schiller, who struck out five – including two in the seventh – to close out the complete-game win. “I think it was important to get up early,” South coach Brian Bogda said. “Putting up seven runs on any day is good, but a day like today, you can never have enough.”

MILWAUKEE – Ryan Braun hit a three-run homer, and Jean Segura produced some bizarre base running in the Milwaukee Brewers’ 5-4 win over the Cubs on Friday night. Segura some how wound up safe at first base after attempting to steal third, only to later be thrown out attempting to steal second base again. Segura led off the eighth inning with a single and stole second before Braun walked. The two attempted a double steal, but Shawn Camp didn’t deliver a pitch. Instead, he threw to third well ahead of Segura, who turned and went back to second. Braun was there, and shortstop Luis Valbuena tagged both runners as they stood on the bag. The rules say only the trailing runner is out in that case, but Segura trotted down the

Viciedo has strained oblique No makeup date announced yet By ANDREW SELIGMAN

Next vs. Minnesota, 2:05 p.m. Saturday, FOX, AM-670

The Associated Press CHICAGO – Home or away, the Minnesota Twins can’t catch a break from the weather. The Twins’ series opener here against the White Sox on Friday was postponed because of a forecast of cold, windy weather. It’s the third time this week that bad weather has kept Minnesota off the field: On Sunday, the Twins’ home game against the Mets was washed out and on Wednesday their series finale against the Los Angeles Angels was called off amid a steady rain that was turning to snow. The makeup date for Friday’s game wasn’t announced. It’s the first cold weather postponement at U.S. Cellular Field since April 10, 2008, also against Minnesota. The teams should be able to play Saturday, with the forecast calling for sunny skies and temperatures in the high 40s. “Three days off in five days: It’s never really good to have that many off days, especially because when you end up banging games this time,

you’re going to play a lot of games later in summer and you’re going to pay,” Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said after Wednesday’s game was called off. “Really, you can’t fight this weather. It is what it is,” he said. “But you’ll be playing games probably in better weather later, so that’s a good thing. Dayan Viciedo The pitching gets a little out of whack here. Guys are going to be getting extra days, and I think our hitters are fine. Remember, we had a really long spring and didn’t have, like, two days off the whole spring. We can get that through that part of it; you just got to make sure your pitching stays up with it.” The weather has been wreaking havoc around the majors. Through Thursday, 10 games had been postponed. Twins starters have the second-worst ERA in the majors at 5.98. Vance Worley is slated to start Saturday for Minnesota and Jake Peavy for the Sox.

It hasn’t been an easy time, either, for the Sox, coming off a 3-7 trip to Washington, Cleveland and Toronto in which they lost the first five games. They lost second baseman Gordon Beckham to a broken bone in his left wrist when he fouled off a pitch against Washington. Outfielder Dayan Viciedo left Thursday’s game at Toronto with a strained oblique muscle. And pitching coach Don Cooper was hospitalized in northern Virginia because of diverticulitis, a stomach illness, and missed the remainder of the trip. “You just want to go home,” manager Robin Ventura said. “I don’t care what the weather’s like or anything. It’s been a long, rough road trip so we were ready to go home and hopefully turn it around.” Cooper was set to rejoin the team Friday. Beckham was expected to miss six weeks, and it’s not clear when Viciedo will return. The Sox said he was receiving treatment Friday and was day to day. He came up clutching his left side after a swing in the eighth inning Thursday and left the game. “You knew something was up,” Ventura said. “You knew you weren’t going to let him swing after that so you just take him out.”

North Central College sophomore Lina Baker, a Prairie Ridge alumna, was named the NCAA Division III College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin’s Field Event Athlete of the Week after winning the hammer throw, 150 feet, 10 inches, April 12 at the Wheaton College Quad meet.

Baker earns CCIW honor North Central College sophomore Lina Baker is a hammer thrower. When the Prairie Ridge graduate meets new people, though, they’re not so sure the 5-foot-5, 125-pound Baker tosses a shot put attached to a metal cable. “I’ve had to convince some people,” said Baker, who often is told she should be a multievent competitor such as a pentathlete. “They say I don’t look like a thrower. … I was talking to our university president (Troy D. Hammond) and he asked what sport I did. I told him that I was a hammer thrower, and he said, ‘You’d be a good multi.’ ” Although Baker’s stature may not be convincing, her results this season have been. On Tuesday, she was named the NCAA Division III College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin’s Field Event Athlete of the Week after winning the event with a throw of 150 feet, 10 inches April 12 at the Wheaton College Quad meet. Baker’s winning effort was two inches shy of her career-best 151-0 throw a week earlier in the Chicagoland Championships at Lewis University, which set a school record. She owns the top throw this season in the CCIW and ranks 35th in the nation in the event. As a high school senior, Baker was convinced that she would be a pole vaulter. “I picked that up pretty quickly,” she said. “When I

MCHENRY COUNTY COLLEGE BASEBALL

Jacobs alumnus Ross commits to Chicago St. By JOE STEVENSON jstevenson@shawmedia.com McHenry County College pitcher Joe Ross celebrated his 20th birthday a day early Thursday when he committed to play for NCAA Division I Chicago State next year on scholarship. Ross, a sophomore lefty from Jacobs, turned 20 Friday. He will join MCC shortstop Chase Matheson and first baseman Matt Schmidt, Ross’ former high school teammate, with the Cougars next season. “It helped a ton knowing [Matheson and Schmidt] would be there,” Ross said. “They’ve helped me a lot through the process.”

Ross also was considering D-I Rider, where MCC third baseman Nick Richter will play next season. Ross emailed Chicago State assistant coach Ray Napientek last summer when Napientek still worked as an assistant at Northern Illinois University. Napientek switched jobs, but stayed in touch with Ross. “[Chicago State] came to two of my starts, and I think I left a good impression with them,” Ross said. Ross was All-Illinois Skyway Collegiate Conference second-team pick in 2012. He was 5-1 with a 3.75 ERA and 34 strikeouts in 36 innings. This season he is 2-3 with a 6.12 ERA and 22 strikeouts in 25 innings.

ON CAMPUS Barry Bottino came here, I said I wanted to do pole vault.” North Central coaches steered her toward the hammer instead. A new coach on staff this season, Sean Denard, has fueled Baker’s passion for the event. “He never threw the hammer,” she said of Denard, a nine-time national qualifier at D-III Mount Union College in Ohio in the shot put and discus. “But he has put in hours watching videos. He’s sent emails to top hammer throwers asking for tips. … I’m very appreciative. I tell him, ‘You’re the best.’ ” While Baker credits the coaching staff for her success, she also admits she has put in plenty of her own time. With any new event, “you’ve got to spend the time on it,” she said. “That’s a really big thing.” Baker said she picked up the event fairly quickly last season and finished 10th in the CCIW outdoor meet. “I always knew I was a hard worker,” she said. “I’ll bust my butt for things. …I’ve spent hours and weeks just on turns.” Baker said she also feels more physically prepared this season thanks to Denard’s grueling, personally designed workouts. “He trains you in peaks and valleys,” said Baker, who

did not want to discuss specifics of Denard’s workouts. “It really tests you.” Baker hopes her distances continue to climb so that she can qualify for next month’s national meet in LaCrosse, Wis. “I’ve thrown 155 (feet) in practice, and that was on a day when I was sick,” she said. “If I throw (160 feet), I’d be ecstatic.” Davenport ace: Huntley grad Zach Liebman, a senior pitcher at Michigan’s NAIA Davenport University, is 3-0 with a 1.93 ERA this season for the Panthers (24-12). Liebman, a right-hander, had a career-high 10 strikeouts Sunday, including five in a row, while allowing five hits in five innings in an 8-4 victory against Saint Xavier. The effort earned Liebman the school’s Athlete of the Week award on its website, DUPanthers.com. For the season, Liebman has 19 strikeouts in 18⅔ innings. Carthage standout: Jacobs grad Donnie Langland, a senior at D-III Carthage College, was named the CCIW Men’s Golfer of the Week on Tuesday. Langland won the honor after he earned the individual title in the Marian (Wis.) Invitational by shooting 67-70—137 in the two-day event. Last week, he placed third in the Augustana Invitiational with a two-round score of 77-71— 148. Langland’s total was one shot off the winning score. For the season, Langland owns a team-best 72.3 scoring average to go along with 10

top-five finishes. Beloit’s best: Ryan Kaveney, a freshman baseball pitcher at D-III Beloit College, is the top starter for the Bucs this season with a 2-1 record and a team-best 2.27 ERA. Kaveney, a Cary-Grove grad, allowed one hit and struck out eight over seven innings in a 7-0 win April 13 against Lawrence. Kaveney ranks third in the Midwest Conference in strikeouts (29) and opponents’ batting average (.207). Senior outfielder Will Mack (Prairie Ridge) is batting .340 this season for the Bucs (7-11). He is second on the team with 18 hits and a .419 on-base percentage.

Speaker joins Iowa volleyball: Marian Central grad Tanja Speaker has joined the University of Iowa women’s volleyball staff as its interim director of volleyball operations. Speaker, who played college basketball at D-II Florida Southern College, recently worked as a game operations assistant for the Texas Stars hockey team and as a front desk agent at the AT&T Executive Education and Conference Center in Austin, Texas.

Johnsburg chose to play against the wind in the first half of its girls soccer match against Grant on Friday in Fox Lake. The decision paid off as the Skyhawks dominated the second half, when they scored all their goals in a 3-1 nonconference win. Delaney Pruitt scored two goals and Kortnee Hass added another for Johnsburg, and Kadie Calmeyer and Kelsey Stefka combined for seven saves in goal. Skyhawks coach Rob Eastland said the match was played in wind, rain, snow and even about five minutes of sunshine. Compounding the weather and wind in the first half was a fast turf field. “We’re used to grass, and that was our first game on the turf,” Eastland said. “We were at a little disadvantage at the start.”

SOFTBALL Wauconda 9, Crystal Lake Central 0: At Wauconda, the Tigers (4-3, 1-0 Fox Valley Conference Fox Division) couldn’t muster any runs against Wauconda’s Kayla Wedl, who pitched seven innings of four-hit ball while striking out 12. Sara McConnell was charged with the loss after allowing nine earned runs in 3⅔ innings. Taylor Ward went 2 for 3 for the Tigers in the loss.

WATER POLO McHenry 6, Wheeling 5: At McHenry, Andrew Trocki scored four goals to lead the Warriors. Also for McHenry, Matt Peck and Miles Lucas scored.

BASEBALL Huntley 16, Prairie Ridge 10 (susp.): At Crystal Lake, the Red Raiders were one out from victory when the game was called. The teams will finish the game at 10 a.m. Saturday before starting the second game of their series. Prairie Ridge has a runner on second and Jordan Getzelman batting when the game will be restarted.

Miller looks forward to getting back to active lifestyle • MILLER Continued from page C1 In the fall, Miller noticed problems with his left knee, then in his neck. He thought maybe he would have to have his left knee replaced and the limping was causing other problems. By December, after seeing various local doctors, he found a neurologist in Evanston. The date of Feb. 21 is etched in the Millers’ memories. They were in shock when the doctor told them Jim has ALS. They cried. “Oh, my God!” Vicki said. “It was devastating.” Jim tried to keep his condition a secret, and in the meantime a friend sent him an article published by Dr. David Martz, an oncologist

from Colorado Springs, Colo., who had been diagnosed with ALS and later discovered he had Lyme disease. It was a glimmer of hope. Jim started looking into things. He sought out C-G Spanish teacher Jennifer Ellis-Schuetz, who had battled Lyme disease for several years. Ellis-Schuetz directed Miller to Dr. Steve Meress at Fox Valley Wellness Center in Fond du Lac, Wis. Another date the Millers have memorized is March 21. On that day, as Jim had suspected and hoped, tests showed he had Lyme disease. The Millers cried again. “It still kind of scared me, too, because I said, ‘Does this mean he doesn’t have ALS?’ ” Vicki said. “You can’t say that. Only time will tell as he starts to get better.”

Jim thought back to when one of his doctors told him ALS symptoms should manifest in more than two limbs. His problems were only on his left side. Also, a doctor with Meress viewed Miller’s blood under a microscope and saw the spirochete bacteria, which confirmed Miller has Lyme disease.

A LONG ROAD BACK Right now, Miller doubts he could lift a five-pound dumbbell above his head with his left arm. The Total Gym workouts have been replaced with two trips a week to Cary Physical Therapy. Currently, Miller is going through a detoxing period before he will receive antibiotics intravenously. “In order to get those treatments, it had to be clinically diagnosed,” Miller said. “My blood tests were sent to Cali-

fornia and came back positive, so now insurance will cover those for a while. It could take six months before I start seeing improvements.” Miller continues teaching and coaching. He is not able to teach the yoga classes he was during the first semester, but might be able to do so next year. Miller cannot wait to get off the couch and join Vicki for a walk. Or go play 18 holes without a cart. Or bike ride through Moraine Hills State Park near their home in McHenry. The sedentary lifestyle does not suit the Millers. Holter now sees a difference in his colleague. “His outlook is 180 degrees,” he said. “There’s some relief he knows what it is and he has something treatable. It will take time, but he’s going to get much of his life back.”

Leverenz bothered early by conditions • TIGERS-STREAKS Continued from page C1 The Tigers (5-5 overall, 1-4 FVC Fox) defeated the weather and the Blue Streaks, 12-2, in five innings in a game that the temperature at first pitch was 40 degrees with gusty winds and spurts of heavy snow. In the first inning, the snow and cold weather visibly bothered Tigers starting pitcher Dan Leverenz, who was making his first varsity start. Leverenz got the first out of the game on one pitch, but then ran into some trouble. He hit Jordan Sumner, then walked the next batter on four pitches before allowing an RBI single to Eric Bell. Leverenz then settled down and struck out the next two batters to end the inning. In his next inning of work, he struck out the side using a devastating curveball and a hard fastball that tailed away from lefties and jammed righties. “He pitched awesome,” said Badgley of Leverenz. “He’s got a good fastball, but his curveball is what puts him over the top.” Leverenz finished his first varsity start by going all five

Woodstock’s Jordan Turner pitches during Friday’s game against Crystal Lake Central in Crystal Lake. CL Central won, 12-2, in five innings. innings while allowing five hits, two earned runs and 10 strikeouts. “It just feels really good,” said Leverenz, who pitched three innings in relief Tuesday against Crystal Lake South. “I was pretty much in the zone the whole time.” When the season started, Leverenz approached Badgley and asked if he could pitch. Badgley gave him a chance,

Hey what’s the

and after watching a few bullpen sessions, he started Leverenz in a JV game and liked what he saw. Badgley then used his new pitcher during a few relief appearances and earned his first start Friday. “As far as I’m concerned, he is easily one of our top three guys now,” Badgley said. The Blue Streaks (3-4, 2-4 FVC Fox) committed three errors, which extended a few big innings for the Tigers. In the fourth inning, the Tigers pushed seven runs across with the help of three Blue Streak’ errors, which forced starting pitcher Jordan Turner to throw a lot of pitches, which led to his early exit with two outs in the fourth after throwing 85 pitches. “He threw really well, but we just didn’t play defense behind him,” said Woodstock coach John Oliveira, who noted that poor weather isn’t an excuse for the errors. “Because of [the errors], he has to throw more pitches, and then Central gets more confidence because they are seeing more pitches,” Oliveira added. “I feel bad for him because he worked his butt off.”

Bulls center Joakim Noah encourages his team from the bench in the second half of their game against the Nets on Feb. 1 at the Barclays Center in New York. Noah was a late scratch from the game as the Nets defeated the Bulls, 93-89. “Obviously, that was one of our goals and we’ve accomplished it,” Nets guard Joe Johnson said. “We got homecourt advantage for the first round, so we really want to take full advantage of that and give our fans a show.” In their first season since moving from New Jersey, the Nets are in the playoffs for the first time since 2007. This will be the first postseason game in Brooklyn since Oct. 10, 1956, when the Dodgers lost Game 7 to the Yankees at Ebbets Field. The Nets are encouraging a “blackout,” asking fans to wear black, one of the team’s colors. Bulls forward Taj Gibson can’t wait to see the scene, having grown up not far from the arena in Fort Greene Projects. He had to sit out his last chance to play at home with a

Blackawks win 7th in a row By JAY COHEN

Noah’s absence will be felt NEW YORK – The Nets are bringing postseason basketball to Brooklyn, and Joakim Noah might have to miss the party. Noah, who grew up in New York, is battling foot problems and might be sidelined when the series opens Saturday, leaving the Bulls without their top option to defend Nets AllStar center Brook Lopez. “It’s really hard, it’s really hard,” Noah said Friday. “All the work you put in is to play in this situation. This is probably one of the hardest things I’ve had to deal with in my career right now. Going back home and playing in these playoff games means the world to me. Not being able to be ready for that is hard. I’m going to try and do everything I can to help the team.” Noah’s absence could make a huge difference in what shapes up as a competitive series between the Nos. 4 and 5 seeds in the Eastern Conference. The Bulls won three of the four meetings during the regular season, but only one game was decided by more than four points. The Nets are healthier and finished strong, winning six of their final seven games to clinch fourth place and open the series at Barclays Center.

sprained knee but appears recovered now. The Bulls fell 9389 in their prior trip to Brooklyn. “We lost in a tough one, but it was just unreal to see all the love, see all the people that really saw me grow up,” Gibson said. “See them working in the [arena], guys that were 50, 60 years old that are still working, and to see them get to see me on an NBA court, it was real emotional, especially when I was leaving. I saw a lot of guys that I had no clue were working there and there were a lot of tears, so I’m looking forward to going back and represent.” The Bulls still won’t rule out Derrick Rose joining him. He hasn’t played since tearing up his left knee in Game 1 of last season’s playoffs, but has

been fully practicing for weeks. Even without the former MVP, the Bulls won 45 games. “They’re a different team without Derrick Rose, obviously, but this is a blue collar team, a hard-working team and they rely really on their defense,” Johnson said. “So for us offensively, we really have to execute and in the playoffs the game slows down a lot, and considering the fact that we’ve got a great center in Brook and a great point guard, I think it should favor us.” That point guard is Deron Williams, who wasn’t great in the first half of the season but has returned to an elite level since getting treatment on his ankles around the All-Star break. He averaged 22.9 points in 28 games since the break after managing only 16.7 before it. He scored 30 in four of his seven games in April, including once against the Bulls. Nazr Mohammed would get the call in Noah’s absence against Lopez, who averaged 22 points against the Bulls. The Nets realize the Bulls’ defense will make it tough no matter who is in their lineup. Lopez said he expected a “knockdown, drag out” series, and interim coach P.J. Carlesimo cautioned that the Nets would have to protect the ball, saying Brooklyn gave the Bulls 80 points on 73 turnovers. “I think that it will be physical and it will be a lot of half court and a lot of battles underneath on the boards,” Carlesimo said. “I don’t think it’s going to be a very pretty series.”

The Associated Press CHICAGO – The race for the Central Division is long over, and the West has been won. The Presidents’ Trophy still is out there, and the Blackhawks look ready to grab that one as well. If they can pick up a few more timely goals on the power play, this could be only the beginning. Marian Hossa scored 52 seconds into overtime and the streaking Hawks swept Marian Hossa the season series against the Nashville Predators for the first time with a 5-4 victory Friday night. “It’s huge for the confidence of the power play, and that’s good,” Hossa said. With Rich Clune in the penalty box serving a four-minute minor for high sticking, Patrick Kane sent a pass across the ice to Hossa, who one-timed it past Pekka Rinne for his 17th goal of the season. Duncan Keith also scored a power-play goal in the first period for the Hawks’ first score with the man advantage since March 29 against Anaheim, snapping a string of 20 unsuccessful chances over nine games. “It made a difference for us tonight,” said captain Jonathan Toews, who had two assists. “We know that in the near future here it’s going to matter a lot, so we need confident units to go out there and make plays.” Kane, Michal Handzus, and Brandon Saad also scored for the NHL-best Hawks, who have won seven in a row.

vs. Phoenix, 7:30 p.m. Saturday, WGN, AM-560 Slumping Nashville has dropped eight in a row and 11 of 12 overall. Matt Halischuk had two goals and Kevin Henderson scored in his first NHL game, but the Predators still lost to the Hawks for the fourth time this month and the sixth consecutive occasion dating to last season. “Everybody’s pushing to try to get a win,” Nashville coach Barry Trotz said. “It’s one thing or another. All their goals were turnovers.” The Hawks and Nashville were tied at 2 after the first period, and exchanged goals again in the second. Kane gave the Hawks the lead when he got a pass from Bryan Bickell and slid the puck between Rinne’s legs for his team-best 21st of the season at 9:20, but Halischuk then got his second of the game when he followed his own shot on a breakaway, making it 3-3 with 7:29 left in the period. Handzus intercepted a pass by Victor Bartley midway through the third and beat Rinne into the top of the goal, giving the Hawks the lead once again. It was the first goal for the veteran center since he was acquired in a trade with San Jose on April 1. “He’s here not for his scoring prowess, but to do a lot of other things for us,” coach Joel Quenneville said. “But certainly nice to see him get on the board.” The Predators then tied it when Bobby Butler rushed in for a rebound score with 3½ minutes remaining, beating Corey Crawford high into the net.

Nils Montag (right) of Crystal Lake waits to speak with Chase Bank’s Becky Bonnis (left) at the McHenry County College and McHenry County Workforce Network Job Fair Friday. Montag was looking for a new career after he lost his job as a nursing home chef.

‘Pretty cutthroat’ Job hunters see few signs of hiring improvement By BRETT ROWLAND browland@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Local job seekers are seeing few signs of an improving economy in the employment market. “It’s pretty cutthroat out there right now,” said Lucas Gochanour, a 31-year-old Crystal Lake resident looking for a job in marketing, professional services and consulting. Gochanour was among scores looking for work at a job fair Friday at McHenry County College. More than 40 employers sought recruits at the event, which was hosted by MCC and the McHenry County Workforce Network. For the last two months Gochanour has been networking, sending out résumés, and interviewing for jobs. He recently worked in marketing at an event production company and is hoping to find something similar. On average, Nils Montag, 47, of Crystal Lake, has been sending about one job application a day since February. He previously worked as a chef at a nursing home, but wants to parlay his data analysis skills into a new career. “I’ve been on my feet for 30 years,” he said Friday at the job fair. “I’d like to sit down at my next job.” The job market, he said, hasn’t improved much since the Great Recession. “No. Not really,” he said. “Some days I’ll find six or seven jobs to apply for, but other days, there’s nothing.”

H. Rick Bamman - hbamman@shawmedia.com

Hundreds of job seekers visited the job fair presented by McHenry County College and the McHenry County Workforce Network. Retta Williams has been on the job hunt for the last two weeks after being laid off from a data entry job. “It’s not going well,” the 25-yearold Crystal Lake woman said. “All the jobs are in retail, factories or warehouses.” Timothy Gabriel, 18, of Lake Barrington, has sent out more than 200 job applications in the last 18 months while studying electronics and computer technology at DeVry. In a competitive job market, Gabriel is often vying for the same positions as older, more experienced candi-

dates. “It’s disheartening to say the least,” he said. “At least from my prospective, the job market isn’t getting any better.” Companies from throughout the region attended Friday’s job fair, including The Cleaning Authority, Chase Bank, Edward Jones, Walgreen Co., Berry Plastics Corp., Catalent, BMO Harris, Visiting Angels, Home State Bank, and Scot Forge.

WASHINGTON – Unemployment rates fell in more than half the U.S. states in March even though job growth slowed. Rates fell largely because many of those out of work stopped looking for jobs and were no longer counted as unemployed. Unemployment rates fell in 26 states, rose in seven and were unchanged in 17. Only 23 states reported a net gain in hiring in March, the fewest since August 2011. Employers cut jobs in 26 states, and New Mexico reported little change. That was much worse than in February, when 42 states reported job gains. Nationwide, hiring slowed sharply in March. Employers added only 88,000 jobs, down from an average of 220,000 from November through February. The national unemployment rate fell to 7.6 percent, but only because more Americans ended their job searches. Nevada reported the highest unemployment rate last month, at 9.7 percent. It was followed by Illinois at 9.5 percent and California and Mississippi, both at 9.4 percent. North Carolina had the fifth-highest rate, at 9.2 percent. Rhode Island’s rate has fallen from 10.6 percent to 9.1 percent in the past year. Florida’s has dropped from 8.9 percent to 7.5 percent and Michigan’s from 9 percent to 8.5 percent. All those states have added jobs, although in Rhode Island the gain was only 700. But rates have also fallen because fewer people are looking for jobs. When people without jobs stop actively looking for work, the government no longer counts them as unemployed. Illinois’ unemployment rate has risen from 8.8 percent to 9.5 percent, and Mississippi’s has jumped from 9 percent to 9.4 percent. Florida and California reported the biggest job gains in March from February. Florida added 32,700, California 25,500. Employers in Ohio, though, cut 20,400 jobs, the biggest loss of any state. Illinois reported a loss of 17,800 jobs, the second-largest loss. North Dakota’s unemployment rate of 3.3 percent was the lowest in the nation, followed by Nebraska at 3.8 percent.

Disney theme in Volo Auto Museum showroom NORTHWEST HERALD VOLO — The Volo Auto Museum’s latest addition is nearing completion, and its theme is decidedly Disney – with a dash of Looney thrown in for good measure. Ariel has her waterfall. Belle has her ballroom. Pete’s Garage is under roof, its theater component awaiting visitors. The new, 10,000-square-foot, kidfriendly showroom will be open Memorial Day weekend, with sneak peeks available now, said Brian Grams, museum director. “It’s pretty neat,” he said. “It’s going to be fun in there.” An entire 200-foot-long wall will be “nothing but Disney and the history of Disney,” Grams said. “In the rafters we’ll be hanging signs with different Disney sayings.” Along with some collector cars, Showroom 5 will feature an extensive collection of kid favorites, such as the sensational Seuss-mobile, the Flintstones-mobile, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles van, Herbie – even Lightning McQueen.

In addition, the space features nearly $150,000 worth of Disney statues that Grams has been buying up since Disney Stores nationwide began liquidating them. Finding nearly 14 sets was something of a coup, he said.

“Many store owners were selling the statues individually,” he said. “Finding them in complete sets, it just doesn’t exist (elsewhere). We have several complete sets, some dating to the early ‘90s.” On view are statuary sets from “Fantasia,” “Beauty and the Beast,” “101 Dalmations” and more. “Who doesn’t like Disney?” said

Grams, the father of two young daughters, ages 4 and 8. Grams added that this month, a contact notified him of the availability of a number of Looney Tunes statues that were supposed to have been destroyed after Warner Brothers Studios closed its shops more than 10 years ago. Now, about $80,000 worth of Looney Tunes statuary, including a 9-foot-tall Daffy Duck, also is targeted for display. Located at 27582 Volo Village Road, the Volo Auto Museum is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily and is a family-friendly place in any kind of weather. Exhibits featuring roughly 300 cars are all under roof in climate-controlled buildings.

FAA OKs resumption of Boeing 787 flights

Markets edge higher to end turbulent week NEW YORK – Stock markets edged higher Friday, as a mixed set of earnings capped a turbulent week on Wall Street. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 13 points to 1,555, up nearly 1 percent. The index was helped by a 4 percent rise in Google after the company posted strong earnings. The Nasdaq composite index gained 39 points to 3,206, up almost 1.3 percent. After spending most of the day down, the Dow Jones industrial average ended Friday with a tiny gain – up 10 points at 14,547. A rare earnings miss for IBM weighed on the Dow. Google’s stock rose nearly $34 to $799.87 after its profit beat estimates.

General Electric 1Q earnings rise on NBC sale NEW YORK – General Electric’s earnings rose in the first quarter, helped by the sale of NBC Universal and increased profit from selling aircraft engines and transportation equipment. GE reported net income of $3.5 billion, or 34 cents per share, on revenue of $35 billion. During last year’s first quarter, GE earned $3 billion, or 29 cents per share, on $35.2 billion in revenue. Adjusted to reflect earnings only from continuing operations, GE earned 35 cents per share. That matches what analysts surveyed by FactSet expected. The analysts expected slightly lower revenue of $34.5 billion. But sales from the company’s core industrial equipment and services divisions – the divisions GE are counting on to deliver growth – fell 6 percent, and profit fell 11 percent. The company’s sale of NBC added earnings of 8 cents per share, while profit rose 9 percent at GE Capital, the company’s finance arm.

– From wire services

The Associated Press WASHINGTON –Federal officials intend to lift the order grounding the beleaguered 787 Dreamliner after accepting Boeing’s revamped battery system even though the root cause of battery failures that led to a fire on one plane and smoke on another remains unknown. The Federal Aviation Administration said Friday it would send airlines instructions and publish a notice next week lifting the 3-month-old grounding order that day. Boeing will then have the go-ahead to begin retrofitting planes with an enhanced lithium ion battery system. Dreamliner flights could resume within a week, the agency told members of Congress. The FAA gave Boeing permission last month to test the revamped system, which includes additional insulation around each of the battery’s eight cells to prevent a short circuit or fire in one of the cells from spreading to the others. The new system also includes enhanced venting of smoke and gas from inside the battery to outside the plane. A strengthened box to hold the battery is an effort to ensure that if a fire were to occur, it wouldn’t escape to the rest of the plane. Boeing has completed 20 separate tests of the new system, FAA Administrator Michael Huerta told Congress earlier this week. The FAA’s action directly affects United Airlines, which is the only U.S. airline with 787s in its fleet. But aviation authorities in other countries are

The 787 is Boeing’s newest and most technologically advanced plane. It is the world’s first airliner made mostly from lightweight composite materials. It also relies on electronic systems rather than hydraulic or mechanical systems to a greater degree than any other airliner. And it is the first airliner to make extensive use of lithium ion batteries, which are lighter, recharge faster and can hold more energy than other types of batteries. Boeing has billed the plane to its customers as 20 percent more fuel efficient than other midsized airliners. That’s a big selling point, since fuel is the biggest expense for most airlines

expected to follow suit swiftly. Boeing had delivered 50 planes to eight airlines in seven countries when a fire erupted in a battery aboard a Japan Airlines 787 parked at Boston’s Logan International Airport on Jan. 7. The FAA and other authorities grounded the entire fleet after a second incident nine days later led to an emergency landing by an All Nippon Airways 787 in Japan. Boeing has recently been readying replacement battery systems for installation in anticipation that the grounding order would soon be rescinded. “We are primarily bound by EASA decisions, and we need to have their permission to end the grounding,” said Marek Klucinski, a spokesman for Polish national carrier LOT, referring to the European Aviation Safety Agency. “If the (Boeing) decision is to-

The plane’s grounding on Jan. 16, an enormous black eye for Boeing, marked the first time since 1979 that FAA had ordered every plane of a particular type to stay out of the air for safety reasons. UBS analyst David Strauss estimated last month that the 787 will cost Boeing $6 billion this year. Besides the battery problems, the plane already costs more to build than it brings in from customers. United has six Dreamliners, plus another 44 on order. American and Delta have also ordered 787s. Boeing has orders for more than 800 of the planes from airlines around the globe. The 787 has two identical lithiumion batteries, one of which is located toward the front of the plane and powers cockpit electrical systems, the other toward the rear and used to start an auxiliary power unit while the plane is on the ground, among other functions. It was the battery toward the rear that caught fire and gushed smoke on the plane in Boston, which had recently landed after an overseas flight. It was the other battery toward the front that failed on the plane in Japan. Lithium batteries are much more likely to experience uncontrolled high temperatures that can lead to fires if they are damaged, exposed to excessive heat, overcharged or have manufacturing flaws. Despite their safety risks, they are increasingly attractive to aircraft makers as a way to cut weight and thus improve fuel efficiency.

McDonald’s Dollar menu fails to lift sales week found that a sampling of 25 U.S. franchisees who collectively operate 180 McDonald’s restaurants on average rated their relations with the company below their historic levels. Janney said some complained about excessive coupons and discounts. Such items are generally more expensive, and CEO Don Thompson noted that they could help improve margins in coming quarters. For the three months ended March 31, the global sales drop included a 1.2 percent decline in the U.S. The sales figure fell 1.1 percent in Europe, the company’s biggest region by sales. It fell 3.3 percent in the region encompassing Asia, the Middle East and Africa,

sponded by aggressively touting its Dollar Menu and other value deals to hold onto customers in an industry where imitation is rampant. The strategy has caused concern among analysts who worry that it could eat into profit margins. It’s also rankled some McDonald’s franchisees, who operate the vast majority of its restaurants in the U.S. Although profit margins declined during the first quarter, McDonald’s noted that it picked off market share in many parts of the world, including the U.S. But there are signs such deals aren’t sitting well with the independent franchisees who operate restaurants. A survey by Janney Capital Markets released this

By CANDICE CHOI AP Food Industry Writer NEW YORK – McDonald’s managed to eke out a higher profit for its first quarter even as the world’s biggest hamburger chain failed to lift sales with its Dollar Menu. The company said Friday that an important sales measurement fell 1 percent during the period and warned that it’s expected to dip again in April. That marked the first quarterly decline in a decade in sales at restaurants open at least 13 months and underscored the troubles the company has been facing. As Burger King and Wendy’s have stepped up their marketing over the past year or so, McDonald’s has re-

reflecting weakness in Japan and a 4.6 percent drop in China. The company blamed the decline partly on the aftereffects of the recent scare of the chicken supply for KFC, which is owned by Yum Brands Inc. McDonald’s Corp., based in Oak Brook, has more than 34,000 locations worldwide, about 14,000 of those in the U.S. For the quarter, it earned $1.27 billion, or $1.26 per share. That compares with $1.267 billion, or $1.23 per share, a year ago. Revenue edged up 1 percent to $6.6 billion. Analysts expected a profit of $1.26 per share on revenue of $6.59 billion, according to FactSet.

• JOB Continued from page E1 Employers said they were collecting stacks of applications for the few available jobs. Spring Grove-based Sportdecals Inc. had been looking to fill three customer service positions, but two of the spots were recently taken, said Human Resources Manager Mandi Krahel. The large pool of potential employees means employers can be selective. “We’re getting lots of applications,” she said. “For us, it’s about finding the one candidate that really fits with our company.” Unemployment held steady in Illinois in March at 9.5 percent, with 629,000 people looking for work.

Neil Armstrong, in a graduation speech at the University of Southern California in 2005, said, “I hope you become comfortable with the use of logic without being deceived into concluding that logic will inevitably lead you to the correct conclusion.” At the bridge table, the use of logic should lead to the correct conclusion. In today’s deal, South is in three no-trump. West leads the heart seven: nine, ace, eight. What should East do next? First, let’s have East check the high-card points -- our theme for the week. South showed 15 to 17, dummy has 10, and East holds nine. That leaves four to six points for West. Next, it is common in no-trump to return partner’s lead, and many players would lead back the heart jack without further thought. Here, South would gallop home with at least one overtrick. East should also read the lead; what can he learn about his partner’s heart holding? Usually, West would lead fourth-highest from his longest and strongest. So East should apply the Rule

of Eleven. Seven from 11 is four. This means that there should be four hearts higher than the seven in the North, East and South hands combined. But at the irst trick, East saw ive higher hearts: dummy’s nine and 10, his ace and jack, and South’s eight. West cannot have led fourth-highest. Instead, logic says that the heart seven must have been top of nothing. If South has the heart king and queen, there is no logic in returning that suit. Instead, East should shift to the spade queen. Here, that works beautifully, gaining the irst ive tricks for the defense.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - Your earning potential could greatly increase in coming months. Your current cycle points to several sources creating multiple opportunities for gain. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- As long as you don’t create obstacles for yourself, you can be a leader in an endeavor that is theoretically controlled by someone else. Don’t be afraid to step up. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Your potential for success is exceptionally good, as long as you don’t overthink things. The secret is to focus on where you want to go. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Priority should be given to a situation that would either enhance your career or add to your resources. Look to these areas to get the results you desire. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Knowledge that you recently gained can be used to your advantage. However, it’s important not to discuss your intentions with anybody. Just do what needs to be done. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- To get anything done today, you must be bold as well as enterprising. Don’t take time to palaver or discuss matters with others -just dive in with both feet. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you subdue your self-interest and try to do things that will provide the greatest good for the biggest number, you’ll come out on top. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Conditions are exceptionally good for fulfilling one of your more ambitious objectives. Set your sights on your target and let nothing distract you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Take some time out of your busy schedule for exercise. Physical exertion will invigorate not only your body, but your mind as well. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Instead of waiting for fortune to bring good things to your doorstep, make things happen yourself. You have the power to write your own destiny. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- How well you perform is likely to be determined by the company you keep. If you get involved with some movers and shakers, you’ll mirror their behavior. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Because you’re presently in a fruitful cycle, you could reap some substantial results from your entrepreneurial endeavors. Focus on involvements that could be financially meaningful. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You’ll become the motivating force in an arrangement that is now being handled by another. This person will be totally prepared to take a backseat and let you do the driving.
