A federal judge Tuesday dismissed a lawsuit filed against the McHenry County Mental Health Board by a local drug- and alcohol-abuse treatment center over $1.1 million in funding that the board wants back. The lawsuit filed last October by The Advantage Group Foundation alleges that the board is trying to push the Crystal Lake-based nonprofit “to the brink of extinction” by trying to recoup money that the Mental Health Board alleges was improperly billed between 2009 and 2011. Judge Philip Reinhard dismissed two of the three counts with prejudice, meaning they cannot be refiled. He threw out charges that the Mental Health Board inappropriately burdened The Advantage Group with extra audits, and violated antitrust laws by seeking to eliminate the nonprofit “to instead benefit providers [the] defendant prefers.” The third count – that ordering extra audits constituted a breach of contract – can be refiled, but Tuesday’s ruling concludes that it is a state law claim. Advantage Group Director Patrice Owens said the agency, which provides tailor-made

By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com As rain steadily fell throughout the area Tuesday, officials focused their attention on the recovery effort following days of flooding that forced people from their homes and caused untold

property damage along the Fox River. The rainfall partly caused the National Weather Service to issue a flood warning in the morning for the Fox River at Algonquin, but the McHenry County area ultimately saw about a

third of an inch of rain. Barring additional rainfall, Tuesday’s rain will merely slow the pace floodwaters in the area recede from the Fox River, said National Weather Service Meteorologist Gino Izzi. The forecast for the week does not include additional rain. “We should see rain end [Tuesday] evening. We are not looking at significant amounts,”

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

Ready for storm season? Here are some tips I might have a case of intentional amnesia, if such a thing exists. Every spring, I’m so eager for the green grass and flowers that I forget about the thing about spring and summer I fear the most: the loud, powerful and destructive storms. And worst of all – tornadoes. Last year was a doozy in that department all across the country. A tornado even destroyed the town in Kentucky where friends of mine live. Forgive me if I’m even a bit jumpier than most about bad weather. I’ve been this way for years. A fellow copy editor years ago used to mockingly ask whether I wanted to hide under my desk every time there was a clap of thunder. Suffice it to say, she wasn’t entirely wrong. So bear with me if I feel the need to share some reminders as the threat of strong storms increases.

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Joan Oliver Here are a few more tornado season tips from the National Weather Service (www.spc.noaa.gov/faq/tornado/safety.html): • At home, practice a family tornado drill at least once a year. • Store protective coverings (e.g., mattress, sleeping bags, thick blankets, etc.) in or next to your shelter space. • Avoid windows. • Get in the basement or under some kind of sturdy protection (heavy table or work bench), or cover yourself with a mattress or sleeping bag. • Know where very heavy objects (pianos, refrigerators, waterbeds, etc.) rest on the floor above and do not go

under them. • If you don’t have a basement, go to the lowest floor and into an interior room. A closet or bathroom is recommended. • If you’re in a vehicle, remember they are easily tossed and destroyed by tornadoes. Your best bet is to take shelter in a sturdy building. If that’s not possible, lie flat in a low spot or ditch as far from the road as possible to avoid flying vehicles. Do not park under a bridge or underpass. Another good way to be prepared is to have a NOAA weather radio. This is particularly important for those who live where they cannot hear their town’s tornado sirens. Among the things the NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards system broadcasts are tornado and flood warnings, Amber Alerts and chemical spill messages. You can even get routine weather forecasts.

The radios can be found at many electronics stores, and cost from $20 to $200, depending on the model and options. The National Weather Service recommends that you get one with a battery backup and a tone-alert feature that automatically sounds when a watch or warning is issued. If you’d like to learn more about the radios, visit NOAA’s weather radio page at www.crh.noaa.gov/ lot/?n=nwr. The time to prepare is now, before something happens. All of this, of course, probably won’t make me less nervous. So if you need to find me, I just might be the one hiding under the desk.

Hackers compromise AP Twitter account The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – Hackers compromised Twitter accounts of The Associated Press on Tuesday, sending out a false tweet about an attack at the White House. The false tweet said there had been two explosions at the White House and that President Barack Obama was injured. The attack on AP’s Twitter account and the AP Mobile Twitter account was preceded by phishing attempts on AP’s corporate network. The AP confirmed that its Twitter account had been suspended following a hack and said it was working to correct the issue. The false tweet went out

shortly after 1 p.m. and briefly sent the Dow Jones industrial average sharply lower. The Dow fell 143 points, from 14,697 to 14,554, after the fake Twitter posting. Joe Fox, chairman and co-founder of online brokerage Ditto Trade, was at work in Los Angeles when he got a call from his Chicago brokerage offices telling him what had happened. Fox watched the market tanking, and its quick bounce back. “It was a topsy-turvy rollercoaster for a few minutes there,” Fox said. After the brief sell-off, investors turned their focus back to earnings. A Securities and Exchange Commission spokeswoman declined to comment on the

incident. AP spokesman Paul Colford said the news cooperative is working with Twitter to investigate the issue. The AP has disabled its other Twitter accounts following the attack, Colford added. The Syrian Electronic Army claimed responsibility for the hack. This couldn’t be corroborated. The FBI has opened an investigation into the incident, spokeswoman Jenny Shearer said. She declined to elaborate. The SEA has taken credit for a string of Web attacks on media targets it sees as sympathetic to Syria’s rebels. Among the targets the group claims to have hacked are Twitter feeds of Al-Jazeera

ANN ARBOR, Mich. – You can learn a lot from a zombie. At least that’s what University of Michigan professor Dr. Eden Wells hopes her 31 graduate students took away from Tuesday’s “zombie apocalypse.” The classroom exercise was designed to get School of Public Health students thinking about what the appropriate response should be during a disaster. Four times as many students who typically attend Epidemiology 651, “Epidemiology and Public Health Management of Disasters,” were on hand Tuesday to welcome – or become – the undead. The zombie exercise was modeled after a curriculum designed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and a handful of CDC staffers also participated.

More rain pours into Midwestern rivers The ASSOCIATED PRESS PEORIA HEIGHTS – More rain on Tuesday was the last thing flood fighters across the Midwest wanted to see, adding more water to swollen rivers that are now expected to remain high into next month. Floodwaters were rising to record levels along the Illinois River in central Illinois. In Missouri, six small levees north of St. Louis were overtopped by the surging Mississippi River, though mostly farmland was affected. The Mississippi and Illinois rivers have crested in some places, but that doesn’t mean the danger is over. The National Weather Service predicts a very slow descent, thanks in part to the additional rain expected to amount to an inch or so across several Midwestern states. “The longer the crest, definitely, the more strain there is on the levee,” said Mike Petersen, a spokesman for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in St. Louis.

Jennifer Rock uses her cellphone Tuesday to take photos of flooding from the Illinois River in Spring Bay. Floodwaters are rising to record levels along the Illinois River in central Illinois. The biggest problem areas were in Illinois, on the Illinois River. In Peoria Heights, roads and buildings were flooded and riverfront

structures were inundated. Firefighters feared that if fuel from businesses and vehicles starts to leak, it could spark a fire in areas that could be

reached only by boat. “That’s our nightmare: A building burns and we can’t get to it,” said Peoria Heights Fire Chief Greg Walters.

“These are combustible buildings and we have no access to them simply because of the flooding.” About 20 to 30 homes and businesses near the river have been evacuated, he said. Among those still in their homes was Mark Reatherford, a 52-year-old unemployed baker. He’s lived in the same house for two decades, a split-level home with a gorgeous view: a small park between him and the Illinois River. By Tuesday afternoon, the river had rolled over the park and made it to Reatherford’s home, creating a 3-foot-deep mess in the basement. Reatherford had cleared out the basement furniture and was hopeful the main floor would stay dry. Now, he’s considering moving. “You can’t get a better view than what we’ve got here,” Reatherford said. “The sun comes up over the river, moon comes up ... and now you’ve got this. I’m getting too old to deal with this.”

Ricin charges tossed; Bombing motive investigated case takes new twist The ASSOCIATED PRESS

The ASSOCIATED PRESS TUPELO, Miss. – Charges were dropped Tuesday against the Mississippi man accused of sending ricin-laced letters to President Barack Obama and others, while authorities searched at another man’s home in connection with the case. The surprising move was announced in a document filed in federal court hours after Paul Kevin Curtis was released from custody. The charges were dismissed without prejudice, which means they could be re-instated if prosecutors choose. Attorneys for Curtis have

suggested he was framed, and an FBI agent testified in court this week that no evidence of ricin was found in searches of his home. Prosecutors couldn’t be reached for comment. In Tupelo, numerous law enforcement officers converged on the home of another Mississippi man, including some in hazmat suits. Everett Dutschke said in a phone interview that the FBI was at his Tupelo home Tuesday for the search connected to the mailing of poisoned letters. He said his house was also searched last week. Dutschke maintained his innocence.

BOSTON – The Boston area held funerals for two more of its dead Tuesday – including an 8-year-old boy – as evidence mounted that the older Tsarnaev brother had embraced a radical, anti-American strain of Islam and was the driving force behind the Boston Marathon bombing. Younger brother Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s condition was upgraded from serious to fair as investigators continued building their case against the 19-year-old college student. He could face the death penalty after being charged Monday with joining forces with his brother, now dead,

in setting off the shrapnel-packed pressure-cooker bombs that killed three people. In Washington, Senate Intelligence Committee member Richard Burr, R-N.C., said after his panel was briefed by federal law enforcement officials that there is “no question” that Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, was “the dominant force” behind the attacks, and that the brothers had apparently been radicalized by material on the Internet rather than by contact with militant groups overseas. Martin Richard, a schoolboy from Boston’s Dorchester neighborhood who was the youngest of those killed in the April 15 blasts at the

marathon finish line, was laid to rest after a family-only funeral Mass. “The outpouring of love and support over the last week has been tremendous,” the family said in a statement. “This has been the most difficult week of our lives.” A funeral was also held for Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer Sean Collier, 26, who authorities said was shot to death by the Tsarnaev brothers three days after the bombing. A memorial service for Collier was scheduled for Wednesday at MIT, with Vice President Joe Biden expected to attend. More than 260 people were injured by the bomb blasts.

8BRIEFS 3 murder charges out in abortion doc’s case PHILADELPHIA – A Philadelphia judge tossed three of eight murder charges Tuesday in the trial of a Philadelphia abortion provider accused of killing babies born alive at his clinic. Dr. Kermit Gosnell, 72, still faces the death penalty if convicted on four remaining counts of first-degree murder involving babies allegedly killed with scissors. Judge Jeffrey Minehart did not explain why he dismissed the counts.

U of I plans to add 500 professors over 7 years URBANA – The University of Illinois plans to hire 500 professors during the next five to seven years to beef up a flagship campus faculty depleted by retirements and departures, Chancellor Phyllis Wise said Monday. A university spokeswoman did not respond to a call from The Associated Press about how the new hires at the Urbana-Champaign campus would be financed.

Ga. trucker indicted in Illinois trooper’s death HILLSBORO – An Illinois grand jury indicted a Georgia truck driver on felony charges Monday in the November highway death of an Illinois state trooper, Illinois State Police said Tuesday. A Montgomery County grand jury indicted Johnny B. Felton Jr., 52, of Hinesville, Ga., on charges of reckless homicide and operating a commercial motor vehicle without the proper license in connection with the Nov. 26 death of Kyle Deatherage, who died when Felton’s tractor-trailer struck him on Interstate 55 near Litchfield.

Air service better but still delayed The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – A day after flight delays plagued much of the nation, air travel was smoother Tuesday, but the government warned passengers that the situation could change by the hour as thousands of air-traffic controllers are forced to take furloughs because of budget cuts. Meanwhile, airlines and members of Congress urged the Federal Aviation Administration to find other ways to reduce spending. Airlines are worried about the long-term costs late flights will have on their budgets and on passengers. “I just can’t imagine this stays in place for an extended period of time. It’s just such terrible policy,” US Airways CEO Doug Parker said. “We can handle it for a little while, but it can’t continue.” The delays are the most visible effect yet of Congress and the White House’s failure to agree on a long-term deficit-reduction plan. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said no one should be surprised, noting that he warned about the potential for problems two

A combination of FAA air controllers furloughs and bad weather in the Northeast caused hiccups in the commercial airline system. months ago. His solution: Blame Congress for the larger budget cuts that affected all of government, including a $600 million hit to the Federal Aviation Administration. “This has nothing to do with politics,” LaHood said. “This is very bad policy that Congress passed, and they should fix it.” Critics of the FAA insist the agency could reduce its bud-

get in other ways that would not inconvenience travelers. Sens. John D. Rockefeller IV, a West Virginia Democrat, and John Thune, a Republican from South Dakota, sent a letter to LaHood on Monday accusing the FAA of being “slow and disturbingly limited” in response to their questions. They suggested the FAA could divert money from other accounts, such as those devoted to research, commercial space

transportation and modernization of the air-traffic control computers. Others in Congress urged the Obama administration to postpone the furlough for at least 30 days. In the past five years, the FAA’s operating budget has grown by 10.4 percent while the number of domestic commercial flights has fallen 13 percent. “There’s no cause for this. It’s a cheap political stunt,” said Michael Boyd, an aviation consultant who does work for the major airlines. The FAA says the numbers aren’t so clear cut. In that time, the government has signed a new, more expensive contract with air traffic controllers, added 400 new aviation safety inspectors and beefed up its payroll to deploy a new air traffic-control computer system. So given the budget cuts, FAA officials say they now have no choice but to furlough all 47,000 agency employees – including nearly 15,000 controllers – because salaries make up 70 percent of the agency’s budget. Each employee will lose one day of work every two weeks.

Child porn suspect caught after 5 years The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Investigators say Eric Justin Toth’s five-year run as a fugitive began when he was fired from his teaching job at a prestigious private school in Washington after he was confronted about images of child pornography taken with a camera that was in his possession. It ended over the weekend when Nicaraguan authorities, acting on a tip, found him living in that Central American country illegally – with phony passports, driver’s licenses and credit cards, authorities said. The FBI has said it’s investigating why Toth was living there, but the bureau has previously said that he may have been advertising online for work as a nanny or tutor. Now, investigators are trying to piece together how he avoided capture even after he was placed on the FBI’s Most Wanted list, a notorious designation re-

served for those considered dangerous criminals and that has featured the likes of Osama bin Laden and Whitey Bulger. They’re encouraging any other potential abuse victims from other states to come forward as prosecutors proceed with a federal child pornography Eric Justin case against Toth the 31-yearold Toth, who was ordered held without bond during a brief court appearance Tuesday. “The fact that he is a known child predator and that he’s been on the run for five years, we assume that there’s potentially other victims in other places that he’s been over the past five years,” said Valerie Parlave, the head of the FBI’s Washington field office. A federal public defender assigned to Toth didn’t immediately return a call seeking comment.

8BRIEFS Obama salutes national teacher of the year WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama honored finalists Tuesday for the 2013 National Teacher of the Year award and saluted the winner, a Washington state teacher credited with improving science enrollment at his high school. The winner is Jeff Charbonneau, a science teacher at Zillah High School in Washington state’s Yakima Valley. Obama also made special mention of the six educators who died last December in Newtown, Conn., during a shooting spree at an elementary school.

Iraq on edge after deadly raid on protest camp BAGHDAD – Security forces stormed a Sunni protest camp in northern Iraq on Tuesday, sparking deadly clashes in several towns and sharply intensifying rage at the Shiite-led government. The unrest and a spate of other attacks, mostly targeting Sunni mosques, killed at least 56 people. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks on the mosques, and it was unclear if there was any connection to the storming of the camp.

French gay marriage protest turns violent PARIS – France legalized gay marriage on Tuesday after a wrenching national debate that exposed deep conservatism in the nation’s heartland and triggered huge demonstrations that tapped into intense discontent with the Socialist government. Within hours, fiery clashes broke out between protesters and riot police. Legions of officers stayed late into the night, and a protest against the measure turned violent near the Invalides complex. Protesters threw glass bottles, cans and metal bars at police, who responded with tear gas.

Napolitano: Immigration bill would boost security WASHINGTON – Sweeping immigration legislation would improve U.S. security by helping authorities to know who is in the country, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said Tuesday, as supporters of an immigration overhaul marshaled arguments against opponents trying to slow it down. Testifying at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Napolitano said a bill circulating in Congress devotes more money to securing the border, requires employers to verify their workers’ identity and implements new systems to track people as they leave the country.

TAG gets nearly a third of budget from board • LAWSUIT Continued from page A1 outpatient programs to adolescent and young adult clients, is considering its next move. “We’re trying to see what our options are at this point and really determine what to do next. Our whole goal here was to protect our agency and to survive,” Owens said. “We knew [a federal lawsuit] was a bold move, but we knew we had to get it out of this county and out of the system here.” The Mental Health Board collects a special property-tax levy that it disburses to agencies treating mental illness and injury. But criticism has been growing regarding how the board allocates the money and the amount it keeps internally – about one-third of its $13 million 2012 budget stayed internal. Mental Health Board funding accounts for about 30 percent of The Advantage Group’s budget. An additional 30 percent comes from the Illinois Department of Human Services Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse, and the remaining 40 percent comes from contracts, private insurance and Medicaid payments. Board attorney Frank Gosser could not be reached for comment on Tuesday’s ruling. The Mental Health Board alleges that a 2012 audit shows that The Advantage Group’s billing records contained er-

rors and instances in which it billed both the board and patients’ private insurance or Medicaid for the same counseling sessions. The Mental Health Board in its legal filings alleges that The Advantage Group lawsuit is nothing more than an attempt to stop the consequences of being “caught red-handed.” The Advantage Group has maintained that it has passed all of its state audits, but the Mental Health Board’s accusations were relayed to the Office of the Inspector General at the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services, after a DHS analysis found “instances of possible concern.” Owens said The Advantage Group hopes to have the situation resolved within several weeks. Spokeswoman Kelly Jakubek said the healthcare and family services department does not comment on investigative matters. The Mental Health Board has been rocked by change and departing officials over the past year. Its executive director stepped down last fall to take a job with Virginia Commonwealth University, and two other top deputies retired. Two Mental Health Board members have resigned to take jobs with agencies that receive funding. The County Board in March ousted former Board President Lee Ellis, denying him another four-year term.

Flood warning still in place • FLOOD Continued from page A1 Izzi said. “The river levels will be on the decline, but they are expected to remain above flood stage.” The flood warning will remain in effect for the week, since the torrential rain last week raised the Fox River in communities such as Algonquin and McHenry to historic levels. In Algonquin, water levels were reported at 12.63 feet Tuesday evening, more than three feet above flood stage. By tomorrow evening, the river should fall back to 12.5 feet, the National Weather Service reported. At the McHenry dam, water levels remained three-and-ahalf feet above flood stage at 7.46 feet Tuesday evening. The total was down from a highpoint of 7.49 feet Monday evening. While Fox River levels slowly diminish, emergency responders and county officials started assessing property damage and coordinating cleanup efforts. David Christensen, director of the McHenry County Emergency Management Agency, said that between 135 and 150 homes along the river met federal disaster standards. The agency completed its preliminary assessment damage report Tuesday and will forward the information to

the state, which will apply for federal disaster assistance for the 44 counties affected by the recent flooding, he said. “In the county, life goes on and we will start the process of cleaning up,” Christensen said. The flooding caused some residents, including ones in Holiday Hills and Fox Lake, to evacuate their homes. Others spent their weekend fortifying their homes with sandbags, while some saw water reach into crawl spaces. The Salvation Army of McHenry County reported that it has served hundreds with meals, snacks and beverages who have either been affected by the flooding or have helped the flood victims. County Chairwoman Tina Hall scheduled a special emergency meeting for Friday morning to have the County Board discuss waiving building permit fees for the area’s flood victims. Teams from Illinois Emergency Services Management Association will also start cataloging property damage around the county, including areas like Spring Grove, Richmond, Johnsburg and McHenry Township. Christensen’s department will begin preparing for the future and studying what areas along the river were most damaged by the floodwaters. “It helps focus our response for the next time,” Christensen said.

Canada terror suspects deny charges The ASSOCIATED PRESS TORONTO – A man accused of plotting with al-Qaida members in Iran to derail a train in Canada rejected the charges and said Tuesday that authorities were basing their conclusions on appearances. Law enforcement officials in the U.S. said the target was a train that runs between New York City and Canada. Canadian investigators say Raed Jaser, 35, and his suspected accomplice Chiheb Esseghaier, 30, received guidance – but no money – from members of al-Qaida in Iran. Iran released a statement saying it had nothing to do with the plot, even though there were no claims in Canada that the attacks were sponsored directly by Iran. But the case raised questions about the extent of Shiite-led Iran’s relationship with the predominantly Sun-

ton after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States. Charges against the two men in Canada include conspiring to carry out an attack and murder people in association with a terrorist group. Police – tipped off by

an imam worried by the behavior of one of the suspects – said it was the first known attack planned by al-Qaida in Canada. Law officials in New York with knowledge of the investigation told The Associated Press the attack was to take place on the Canadian side of the border. They are not authorized to discuss the investigation and spoke only on condition of anonymity. Amtrak and Via Rail Canada jointly operate routes between the United States and Canada, including the Maple Leaf from New York City to Toronto. In a brief court appearance in Montreal, a bearded Esseghaier declined to be represented by a court-appointed lawyer. He made a brief statement in French in which he called the allegations against him unfair. Jaser appeared in court earlier Tuesday in Toronto and also did not enter a plea.

Why Haven’t Neuropathy Sufferers Been Told These Facts? Do you have any of the following symptoms? • Pins and needles feeling • Numbness in the hands or feet • Tingling or burning sensations • Weakness in the arms or legs • Sharp shooting or burning pains

If so, you may have a condition called peripheral neuropathy. Peripheral neuropathy, or “nerve damage,” is one of the most chronic conditions in the U.S., affecting over 20 million Americans. Neuropathy results from injury to the nerves in the arms and legs.This disrupts the body’s ability to communicate with its muscles, organs and tissues. Most people don’t recognize neuropathy’s symptoms, which are: • Pins and needles feeling • Numbness in the hands or feet • Tingling or burning sensations • Weakness in the arms or legs • Sharp shooting or burning pains These annoying problems may come and go...interrupt your sleep...or even make your arm or legs feel weak at times. But even if you’ve had neuropathy symptoms for a while, there are 3 common myths I often see with this condition.

What Other Professionals are saying about this program.

Myth #1: Thinking More Pills Are The Only Solution A common treatment for many nerve problems is the ‘take some pills and wait and see’ method. While this may be necessary for temporary relief of severe symptoms, using them long term is no way to live. Some of the more common drugs given include pain pills, anti-seizure mediations, and anti-depressants -- all of which have serious side effects. Why not look for a drugless solution instead of just covering over the pain?

Prairie Ridge junior Ryan Nick lights a Bunsen burner to boil a beaker of water during an April 17 chemistry class activity. Historically, science teachers concerned themselves with teaching science facts, having students work a section out of a textbook and then take a test. “But it’s a shift [to] teaching them a scientific mindset and giving them the ability to be scientific thinkers,” Robinson said. For example, instead of having students memorize parts of a cell, students will be asked how does a piece of DNA produce a protein, Robinson said. If students are investigating a problem, and they have to figure out the tiny details, it will leave a longer impression. Matt Elder is a science teacher at Marlowe Middle School in Lake in the Hills, where students have begun to work on a medieval unit. As part of the unit, his class will build one-and-half-foot catapults to launch ping-pong balls. The students have to research and design the catapults on their own, Elder said. “One of the things we decided to do is incorporate problem-based learning where students have more responsibility of gaining knowledge, rather than us telling them what to do,” Elder said. Kathy Gilbert is the math division chairwoman at Prairie Ridge High School, and next school year she is slated to become the STEM division chairwoman at the school when the science and math

departments merge. At District 155, the science curriculum already has a lot of lab activity that the Next Generation Science Standards emphasize. “I don’t think it’s going to be a radical change for us,” Gilbert said. As part of her role this school year, she has been observing science classrooms and preparing for the upcoming science standards. “The emphasis in the past on science curriculum has really been on acquisition of knowledge and finding out different things and getting knowledge.” Gilbert said. “With our current generation of students, it’s easier and easier to find knowledge if you need it. The Internet has made things easily accessible. The acquisition of knowledge, while still important, is not going to be the major thrust. ... We’re really looking to see students do science. Be more active in science.” Gilbert said the emphasis of the standards will be on doing science, from kindergarten through 12th grade. “Let’s do science, let’s investigate, let’s analyze, let’s make it a part of who we are, instead of an abstract concept,” Gilbert said. “In order for people to be successful in our current world, they need to be able to analyze, break things down, put things together, and have that curiosity for learning.”

should be gaining by certain grade levels. For example, between third and fifth grade, students should be learning how humans and other organisms can be affected if the global temperature continues to increase. By middle school, students would be learning how human activities alter or damage the biosphere and how humans can reduce their impact on the environment. In District 158, which includes Huntley High School, science teachers are preparing for the new standards. Mike Wheatley, director of the health, physical education and science curriculum, said teachers at the elementary level will have students doing more hands-on activities when it comes to science. Part of the new science standards is integrating the Science Technology Engineering Mathematics approach. Students synthesize information from other subject areas to design solutions to problems. Students need to use math to back a solution to a problem in a science class, Wheatley said. Wheatley said District 158 plans to have the standards in place for the 2014-15 school year. The proposed science standards are broken down into three categories: the traditional acquisition of knowledge, cross-cutting across disciplines such as using math in science and hands-on science activities. Jeff Robinson, a biology teacher at Huntley High School, said the new science standards will be a shift in the science curriculum.

I am just l ke you... A note from MCC Pres dent, V cky Sm th: For three years, I have had the pleasure of beiÿg a part of the McHeÿry Couÿty commuÿity, liviÿg iÿ Crystal Lake, gettiÿg iÿvolved iÿ the Rotary Club of Crystal Lake (Dawÿbreakers) aÿd participatiÿg each year iÿ a variety of commuÿity aÿd busiÿess eveÿts aÿd orgaÿizatioÿs throughout the couÿty. Duriÿg this time, the regioÿ, as well as the state aÿd our ÿatioÿ, have faced challeÿgiÿg ecoÿomic coÿditioÿs impactiÿg housiÿg, iÿaÿce, educatioÿ aÿd maÿufacturiÿg, to ÿame a few. Despite these challeÿges, McHeÿry Couÿty coÿtiÿues to grow iÿ ÿumber of resideÿts, graduatiÿg high schoolers, the ÿumber of people who ÿeed coÿtiÿued traiÿiÿg for their professioÿ, aÿd compaÿies choosiÿg to make the couÿty their home. This commuÿity has so much to offer, from our parks, to our services, to our schools—it is ÿo surprise that people keep moviÿg to this area. As a resideÿt, I am just like you. I waÿt to see our commuÿity coÿtiÿue to thrive. As presideÿt of McHeÿry Couÿty College, I have a respoÿsibility to make it happeÿ.

Here are a few other th ngs you should know about me: • I am passioÿate about the College aÿd this commuÿity, aÿd I waÿt us to grow. • I waÿt MCC to be part of the successes of this regioÿ. • It is my role to aÿticipate educatioÿal aÿd developmeÿt ÿeeds so that we may plaÿ smartly for the future. • I am a resideÿt, too. • I coÿsider ÿew approaches aÿd ideas fairly. • I waÿt this commuÿity to share iÿ my passioÿ about MCC aÿd the importaÿce of educatioÿ’s impact oÿ a regioÿ.

There has beeÿ a coÿsiderable amouÿt of coÿversatioÿ about receÿt ideas that McHeÿry Couÿty College has coÿsidered. Behiÿd all of these ideas, iÿcludiÿg growth of programs iÿ health care aÿd maÿufacturiÿg aÿd support of graÿt-fuÿded iÿitiatives, our goal is simple. We waÿt our studeÿts to succeed, which iÿ turÿ coÿtributes to the commuÿity’s success. McHeÿry Couÿty College waÿts to be part of the regioÿal success story. I waÿt to be a part of it. We caÿÿot do this iÿ a vacuum, abseÿt of your voice aÿd your trust. So, MCC is creatiÿg a moÿthly commuÿity forum so that you caÿ learÿ more about the College aÿd its iÿitiatives. This forum will also create aÿ opportuÿity for the commuÿity to ask questioÿs. A schedule of these meetiÿg dates aÿd times is posted oÿ MCC’s website at www.mc enry.edu/forum. We are all iÿ this together, aÿd our goal is the same—to make McHeÿry Couÿty a great commuÿity iÿ which to live aÿd work. How we get there is up to all of us.

Don’t mess with Illinois You can’t blame Gov. Pat Quinn for using a few flippant remarks to dismiss this week’s two-day jobs-raiding foray into Illinois by Texas Gov. Rick Perry. Quinn, a Chicago Democrat, called Perry nothing but a “big talker” from a state that is “water challenged.” Perry plans to spend today and Wednesday in Chicago to meet with business leaders in the biotechnology and financial industries. Perry also will speak at the BIO International Convention. The Texas governor, a Republican, said he has visited other Democratic states in the past. He said he wants to “spur competition between states and recruit jobs and employees to Texas.” Perry didn’t throw in a “Don’t mess with Texas” anywhere in his statement, but his swagger fits the slogan. Illinois has developed an unfortunate reputation as being unfriendly toward business. Perry isn’t the first governor from another state to try to entice Illinois companies to pick up stakes and move. Governors from Wisconsin, Indiana and New Jersey have made overtures toward Illinois businesses that might be unhappy with the business climate here. Unknown is whether their entreaties are designed merely for shortterm political advantage. Illinois business owners have legitimate gripes. Quinn and the Legislature raised income taxes and corporate taxes two years ago. The state’s workers’ compensation costs are high. Soaring public pension obligations threaten the state’s financial future. If your business does business with the state of Illinois, you won’t be reimbursed for months. Perry can boast a lower jobless rate in his state (6.4 percent) compared with Illinois (9.5 percent). Yes, Perry and other out-of-staters believe Illinois is an easy target. But those of us who live in Illinois know the state has plenty of positives in manufacturing, agriculture, energy, transportation, research and more. We certainly would like the economy to be better and our state government to fix our many fiscal issues, but staying put to work things out is a wiser strategy than jumping ship. That Gov. Quinn and the Legislature must do more to improve the state’s business climate is a given. Get to work, ladies and gentlemen. Yes, Illinois has its problems and the vultures are circling. However, people in Illinois have not given up. We still believe in this state, and we believe it can be a great place to live and do business.

Thanks, first responders The city of Boston and the town of West, Texas, could hardly be more dissimilar. One is a massive metropolitan center that also serves as the state’s capital, while the other is a rural crossroads of only 2,800 people that, until last week, was easily overlooked on a drive along I-35 between Austin and Dallas. However, these two communities share one thing in common – the bravery of the first responders who, risking personal safety, rushed to help those in need following tragedies.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Do the right thing To the Editor: Since the McHenry County College Board got rid of the previous president, in spite of the fact that many felt he was doing a good job and his contract should have been renewed, then it seems like the current president who has been under considerable fire should know that it’s time for her to leave. If not, then the board should do the right thing and not renew her contract. Remember, MCC belongs to the taxpayers, not the president, the board, the administrators or the staff. The taxpayers let this be known in the recent election, voting some of the board members out of office. A new broom sweeps clean. Once the chief administrator, in this case the president, comes under attack, things don’t get better, they only get worse, dragging many other people and things down with them. Do the right thing, board. Dave Boger McHenry

Tax pledge To the Editor: Now that the tax cap bill failed to pass, let’s show the lobbying

groups that fought against the bill the power of the voters. We are disgusted that our real estate taxes go up and up and up, regardless of the value of our homes. Here is a course of action all of us who wanted the tax cap bill to pass – make a Grover Norquist-like pledge. In the future, we pledge to never, ever vote for a tax increase referendum. That’s never ever. Joseph J. Alfe McHenry

U.S. snail mail To the Editor: I don’t like the phrase “snail mail.” The word that started it all was email. It all seems to be the same. The snail mail takes two days to reach its destination, and then it’s read (email may reach its destination in two seconds, but may not be read in two days, if ever). If the email is important enough to keep, it has to be printed out on your computer or your printer. So what does it save? It’s not the money, and since we are living longer, it’s not the time. Everyone wants us to do direct deposit, so we can’t see our money. The cost of snail mail is a

stamp, a piece of paper, an envelope and maybe a return address label. Email requires a computer, a tower, a screen or monitor, maybe speakers, a mouse, a keyboard, ink cartridges, good lighting, wires all over the place, either to be hidden or to pretend that they don’t exist, a desk to put it all on, and a room to put it all in. Then, if someone gets the information faster than you do, your computer is too slow. Buy a new one. I get all my bills and pay all my bills by snail mail, so I know what is coming in and what is going out. The people that handle the big money in this country don’t want us to see that we are just as irresponsible with our money as they are with our money.

Ill-served in Illinois

Fritz Von Bruenchenhein

Joe Priola

McHenry

Sleepy Hollow

To the Editor: The cry still resonates in our Illinois, “we are ill-served,” still. The latest example we have in Washington D.C., is Congressman Peter Roskam. We elect time and again the same mopes who do the bidding of others, who claim and promise everything. Rep. Roskam will not permit phone calls to his offices by his constituents. Why? Perhaps a fear grips a person that it leaves them cold. Our elected representatives work for us. Why do they, including Roskam, forget who they work for? Sen. Dick Durbin still is a lackey of the Obama administration, as is Sen. Mark Kirk.

Promoting stability among homeless in McHenry County A quarter century ago, several churches in McHenry County created PADS (Public Action to Deliver Shelter). There was a realization that a segment of our population was homeless, and they needed help with food and a warm place to seek shelter. Starting in October and ending in April, the churches have tended to the needs of the chronic homeless in our county each night of the week from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. About eight years ago, PADS merged with Pioneer Center for Human Services. The churches and PADS work in conjunction with each other, but each church operates independently. These needs have not changed over the years, but the demands placed upon the churches have grown with the increase of our county’s population. This year, the churches have sheltered 222 individual men, women and children. On average, we house 42 people a night with 57 being the highest number a night. The church emergency shelter sites provide a service that

not only the homeless need, but our county needs as well. In the beginning, there were seven churches; now we have nine churches providing the physical space to host PADS each night. Starting next October, we will need a 10th church to help provide shelter to our homeless neighbors. If your church is able to help, please contact McHenry County PADS at 815-338-5231. The national average cost to house someone in an emergency shelter is $35 to $50 a day. This means the churches in our county have provided more than $313,000 worth of services this year. The emergency church shelters do not receive any governmental support. The financial support for the churches is by the generosity of the volunteers, churches and donations made directly to the individual churches. These churches can use your financial support and volunteering efforts. The McHenry County PADS website lists the churches if you would like to donate to an emergency

VIEWS Rich Ring shelter church site. Additionally, Pioneer PADS can use your financial support as well. The Department of Housing and Urban Development’s definition of a chronic homeless person is one who has experienced homelessness for a year or longer, or who has experienced at least four episodes of homelessness in the past three years and has a disability. When many of us think about a homeless person, we conjure up the image of a disheveled person pushing a shopping cart around, and diving into Dumpsters. However, in reality, they are God’s children, just like you and me. They are the veterans who fought for our country, the troubled youth, the women and domestic partners who have experienced violence, the people who have succumbed to addictions, those with mental

illness, and people who have fallen on hard economic times. In short, they are our neighbors who are not as fortunate to have a place they can call home. The church emergency shelter sites provide shelter to a broad spectrum of the homeless population. Fortunately, we are not the only organizations that provide services to homeless. Just two of these organizations are Pioneer/PADS and Home of the Sparrow. Pioneer/PADS has day services, case management and transitional living services. Home of the Sparrow provides transitional shelter, apartments, affordable housing and supportive services that foster a sense of lasting selfsufficiency. Despite the best efforts of these organizations, McHenry County does not have a centrally located, year-round human developmental facility to provide support to the homeless population. Yes, we need to provide emergency shelter, but we need to promote stability with targeted treatment programs that

address each person’s needs. By creating a more enhanced program, we can lessen the social and economic impact that homelessness has on our county while helping the homeless establish housing. Many of these organizations and others concerned with homelessness are members of an organization called the McHenry County Continuum of Care to End Homelessness. The vision of the “continuum” is that all individuals and families facing homelessness in McHenry County should have access to safe, decent and affordable housing with the resources and the support needed to sustain these efforts. If you have an interest in helping the homeless in our county, you are welcome to attend “continuum” meetings. The meetings are at 9 a.m. the second Thursday of the month in the McHenry County Government Center building, 667 Ware Road, Woodstock.

EARTH DAY SHOULD BE HELD EVERY DAY Wasn’t Earth Day Monday? Yes, but Earth Day is every day. Some countries even celebrate it a month earlier on the vernal equinox. Whatever date Earth Day falls on, it is a day set aside to remind us we all share the same planet. It is a day to think of the environmental challenges we face and how to solve them. Founded in 1970 by Sen. Gaylord Nelson from Wisconsin, that first Earth Day was the largest organized celebration in the history of the United States. Earth Day’s success helped influence the government of the U.S. to create stronger laws to protect the environment. In 1990, Earth Day went international with 141 countries participating. This year, more than 1 billion people in 192 countries took part in the 42nd anniversary of Earth Day. Find out more at http://www. earthday.org/2012.

WOODSTOCK – McHenry County middle school students got a chance to get out of the classroom Tuesday and learn about groundwater protection firsthand. The spring 2013 McHenry County Schools Youth Groundwater Festival was held at Loyola University Retreat and Ecology Campus on Tuesday, giving students handson lessons on where drinking water comes from and how to keep it healthy. Students were able to walk from station to station, testing the quality of groundwater, measuring water levels and learning about ways to reduce their water use.

Donation pushes clinic closer to funding goal

“Groundwater is so important in McHenry County because all of our drinking water comes from the ground,” said Bethany Gola, director of the McHenry County Schools Environmental Education Program. “A lot of times kids don’t know where it comes from. They turn on the faucet, and they think it comes just from the water tower … or they think it’s coming from a lake.” Tuesday was the second groundwater festival put on by McHenry County Schools. About 150 students took part in the daylong festival, including students from Northwood Middle School and Creekside Middle School in Woodstock, Riley

WOODSTOCK – A McHenry man who prosecutors said sexually assaulted an underage girl and took nude photos of her was sentenced Tuesday to 10 years in prison. Edward E. Martin, 57, pleaded guilty to criminal sexual assault, in a plea approved by McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather. In addition to the prison sentence, Martin is required to register as a sex offender and was sentenced to mandatory probation for three years to life. Prosecutors say Martin sexually assaulted and fondled the girl and took nude photographs of her. The girl was 13 years old at the time

of Martin’s December 2012 arrest. When confronted by the child’s mother, Martin admitted to abusing the girl and made similar admissions to a friend, Assistant State’s Attorney Sharyl Eisenstein said. Police at the time said the abuse had been going on for a year and a half. Martin initially was charged with predatory criminal sexual assault of a child and two counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse, but those were dropped in exchange for his guilty plea to the lesser charges. Criminal sexual abuse is a Class 1 felony and carries a sentencing range between four and 15 years.

Financial awards such as property distribution, maintenance (alimony), and child support, are all made “without regard to marital misconduct.” As to child custody, the Divorce Act states: “The court shall not consider conduct of a present or proposed custodian that does not affect his (her) relationship to the child.” Per the statute evidence of adultery would not be admissible unless it is established that the misconduct has had an adverse impact on the child.

A: The court will not order supervised visitation unless there is proof that unsupervised visitation “would endanger seriously the child’s physical, mental, moral or emotional health.” This is difficult to prove. Q: I paid for it (car, boat, etc.) out of my own wages, and title is in my name. Isn’t it mine? A: No. Everything acquired during the marriage (except for gifts and inheritance) belongs to the marriage and is divided between the parties in the divorce. It does not matter who paid for it, or out of whose wages it came, or how the item is titled/ registered.

Q: If I have joint custody of the children, but their mother has physical custody, doesn’t it mean that the mother can’t move out of state with the kids? A: No, not merely because you have joint custody. Joint custody is usually limited to joint decision making in regard to issues such as the children’s health, education Q: Mothers who are closely bonded and religion. A joint parenting agreement to their children and are over protective, may, however, place a restriction on the distance which the custodial parent may

remove the children. If the restriction, in terms of distance, is reasonable, it should be upheld by the court. Q: I am involved in divorce proceedings. I do not want to now make an issue of the custody of the children, so can’t I bite this bullet later? A: No. At this time you stand on equal footing with your spouse as to who should have custody. If you wait until after the divorce judgment is entered the law has a strong bias in favor of continuing custody as it was originally granted. If you want custody go for it now. Q: How long will the divorce take? A: Until the settlement agreement is signed. Ninety-five percent of all cases are settled, that is they do not go to trial. Once the settlement agreement is signed a court date for finalization of the case can be scheduled within a week or two. How long it will take to have a signed agreement depends on the ease of determining the parties’ incomes and determining the value of assets, but mostly it depends on how reasonable each party is. Two years, between the time of the start of the divorce proceedings to completion, is not unusual for financially complex or child custody cases to go to trial.

Today I am at the park with my friend Rebecca. We are here to see animals and to relax. Rebecca said she saw a deer with her fawn eating blueberries that were as blue as the ocean’s water. Their fur was as white as snow falling from the sky. When we took a picture, they ran off like a bird being startled. We tried to chase after them as far as we could but they were so fast. So we decided we would just lay on the ground and relax. Dezirae, 5th grade

When I went out for a walk, I saw some signs of spring. First, I saw red cardinals and small robins. Bunnies kept jumping in my front yard. Pinecones grew and green caterpillars came out. I saw rainbows shining in the sky. I love spring. Jeremy, 2nd grade When I step outside on the first day of spring, it is awesome. The sun is brighter than in winter, but it’s still a little chilly. The birds are chirping their songs. The grass, when I walk, is wet with dew that gets my shoes all wet and uncomfortable.

Well, I know a lot about the signs of spring because I see them every day. The first sign is birds tweeting and coming back from migration. Also, buds on trees and bushes in my neighborhood bloom and kids laughter and joy of springtime air. Spring is coming. Be prepared with smiles and love and care. Le Taysha, 5th grade I would look for rain. I would try to smell flowers. I would feel the soft grass. I would listen for birds. I would see the leaves. Everyone seems to be a little happier. I wonder if that is a sign that it is finally spring. There are birds in my garden building a nest. Kids are getting out their bikes. Robby, 2nd grade

Have you noticed signs of spring when you are outside? The temperature is getting warmer and the trees are starting to get leaves. There are more days when the sun is out and there aren’t any clouds in sight. On the nicer days you will see more animals out and about. When the birds sing and the flowers bloom, that’s a sign that spring is here. Grass is growing faster and people are mowing. The kids are swimming in warmer water. These are a few signs that spring is here. John, 5th grade I was walking down the street, when I heard a bird tweet. Then it started to rain, so I went to Spain. I saw the flowers bloom, so I got my dog groomed. That is the sign of spring. Andrew, 5th grade

Three area high schools listed among top in state By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com Three McHenry County high schools made the latest U.S. News and World Report rankings as top high schools in the state. Cary-Grove (50), Richmond-Burton (53) and Marengo (61) all made the Illinois rankings, which listed the top 69 high schools in the state. All three schools scored above or near the Illinois average in student-to-teacher ratio, college readiness, math proficiency and reading proficiency. The rankings also found Cary-Grove to be the 1,414th best school in the nation, with Richmond-Burton and Marengo ranking 1,593rd and 1,956th, respectively. “In general, it means we’re

McHENRY COUNTY: WELL USERS

Residents can reduce fees for water testing NORTHWEST HERALD WOODSTOCK – There is still time to get reduced fee water testing during April from the McHenry County Department of Health for individual well water users. Residents can have their well water sampled for coliform bacteria and nitrate for $18. Testing wells regularly is the only way to determine whether well water is safe to drink, as many contaminants are colorless and odorless. Water from a public or municipal water system is regularly tested for contaminants regulated by federal and state standards. Sterile sample containers are required and are available at the locations below. Samples can be dropped off for testing between 9 a.m. and noon Tuesday mornings. • Algonquin Township Office, 3702 Route 14, Crystal Lake, 847-639-2329. • Dorr Township Office, 1039 Lake Ave., Woodstock,

8LOCAL BRIEFS Faith in Action to change program’s name May 1 CRYSTAL LAKE – About a year ago, the Faith in Action Board of Directors began to discuss changing the name from Faith in Action to a new name that more accurately represents the program and services. Research and surveys were conducted, and results revealed the name Faith in Action did not adequately convey the agency’s mission to serve seniors and their families, according to a news release from the agency. The board ultimately decided that Senior Care Volunteer Network precisely describes the program. The name change will be effective May 1. The board is confident the new name will attract more volunteers to the nonprofit agency, which has been serving the community for 15 years, and reach seniors who are searching for the kinds of services the agency offers. The mission, no-cost services for seniors, office location and phone number will remain the same, according to the release.

Festival originated in Rockford Restaurant’s last violation was 2006 Foley’s Pub – received punishments in February. Wine & Roses and the village had been in negotiations for a plea agreement. Wine & Roses has had previous violations, including selling to a minor in 2005 and offering free drinks in 2006. In 2002, the restaurant had its license suspended twice for selling alcohol to minors. In 1996, the restaurant had its license suspended after it had video gambling at the establishment, well before video gambling was allowed in the state.

Bethany Gola, director of the Environmental Education Program “We’re teaching the kids about the connection between salt and groundwater, and how the salt that we put on the roads ends up getting down into our groundwater and what the county’s doing to try to minimize how much salt we have to put down on the roads and still keep the roads safe,” Horton said. The idea for a groundwater festival came from Rock Valley College in Rockford, and the county planning and development department felt the instruction would be beneficial here in McHenry County, Gola

said. The festival received funding from the McHenry County Regional Office of Education, the McHenry County Cooperative for Employment Education and the McHenry County Department of Planning and Development Water Resources Division. “We’re doing a lot of education on where your water comes from and why it’s so important to keep it healthy,” Gola said. “It’s building an awareness and an appreciation for where our water comes from.”

Crystal Lake Dawnbreakers Rotary President Sue Dobbe that he wanted to donate to the Rotary. Dobbe and other Rotarians worked with DuBose to figure out a charity that fit his interests, and that would make a lasting, significant impact on the community. DuBose donated $25,000 to the building of the new FHPC facility. The two organizations are asking community members to match that total by Aug. 1, calling it the “Rotary Chal-

8PUBLIC ACCESS

ficiency. Hoban said DuBose’s donation was another gracious contribution in a long line of them since the clinic went public with its fundraising campaign last summer. The center has received significant backing from the Foglia Foundation and will be called the Sage Center for Care. “We have gotten a very broad and strong show of support from the community,” Hoban said. “We have gotten donations from $50 up to donations of $100,000. It’s been a wonderful community response to a community need.”

In addition to adding space – the new clinic will have 12 exam rooms compared with just six in the current building – the new facility will be more accessible, Hoban said. It’s close to the Pingree Metra station and a bus route, and centrally located to several hospitals. Hoban added the clinic also will start a transition to electronic medical records, which – once the kinks are worked out – will improve ef-

Middle School in Marengo and St. Peter and Paul School in Cary. Gola said the most important part of the festival is that students are able to see water protection up close, giving them a visual to go along with what they learn in the classroom. “A lot of times ecology and going green can become buzzwords for kids,” Gola said. “They know it, they get it, they’ve been doing it. But when they are able to get outside and come together as kids and fellow students, they get a chance to see how it actually relates to their life.” One station was led by McHenry County chief stormwater engineer Cory Horton, who taught students about how the county protects the roads while also protecting drinking water.

consideration was the length of time between the violations,” Laine said. In the past, Wine & Roses owner John Wesolowski has been antagonistic toward the liquor commission. Wesolowski was not at the meeting, but his attorney Bill Hellyer represented the restaurant. “His attitude has changed,” Hellyer said. “Rather than being combative, he was remorseful.” Village President John Schmitt said he hopes the restaurant doesn’t have any future violations. “We hope we never see him here again, as we’ve done before, but that was a long time ago,” Schmitt said.

Sports editor: Jon Styf • jstyf@shawmedia.com NFL DRAFT

Roster offers clues for Bears’ draft CHICAGO – Phil Emery is a list man. Go ahead and memorize everything you need to accomplish at work. Take an order without writing down a single thing. Store away all of those promises that you made about doing household chores in some corner of your brain. That’s not Emery’s style. Emery has made a list, checked it twice, and checked AP file photo it many more times after that. Georgia linebacker Alec Ogletree sacks Nebraska quarterback Taylor If you were in his shoes, you Martinez (3) on a fourth-and-9 play late in the fourth quarter of the also would be more meticuCapital One Bowl on Jan. 1 in Orlando, Fla. Ogletree might be an option lous than Santa Claus. The NFL draft begins for the Bears when their 20th overall pick comes up Thursday night.

BEARS INSIDER Tom Musick Thursday with Round 1, continues Friday with Rounds 2 and 3, and wraps up Saturday with Rounds 4 through 7. The Bears have five picks heading into the draft, starting with their first-round selection at No. 20 overall. All kinds of surprises happen during the draft. Some players go higher than expected while others wait

in stunned silence as they slide down the board. Teams jockey for position with draftday deals. Millions of dollars are at stake with every top selection. No wonder Emery wants a list nearby. The Bears’ second-year general manager has mentioned “flexibility” countless times as he prepares to handpick a handful of rookies for the roster. To remain flexible in the face of surprises, Emery has compiled a list of players he would trade up to select, players he expects to

be able to select at No. 20, and players he expects to be able to select later in the draft in case he decides to trade down for extra picks. “We’re not averse to any scenario as long as we see positive value out of it,” Emery said. Of course, Emery won’t reveal his list to anyone outside of the organization. He hinted that his target list at No. 20 would include five to seven players, likely from both sides of the ball.

CRYSTAL LAKE — Tuesday’s Fox Valley Conference Valley Division soccer match between Prairie Ridge and visiting Jacobs could have been the scene of a detergent commercial. The two teams took the field for warmups with bright, clean jerseys, but by the end of the 4-0 victory by the Wolves, the players were soaked and the clean jerseys were unrecognizable. The field conditions got so bad because of the constant driving rain that the match was called 11 minutes early because of unplayable field conditions. But the Wolves (5-2-1 overall, 1-0 FVC Valley) still found a way to execute their aggressive game plan despite the weather. “I told the girls before the game that we were going to pressure Jacobs defensively because we knew they were going to make mistakes in the weather,” Wolves coach JC Brown said, “and we wanted them to make more mistakes by us pressuring hard.” The Wolves’ defense held Jacobs (4-8-1, 0-1 FVC Valley) to only three shots on goal while totaling 18 themselves, as the Wolves were on the attack throughout. “With the water, it’s about how hard you’re going to work and if you’re going to put yourself in the right spot,” Jacobs coach Anthony Cappello said. “It’s about doing the little things the right way, and it’s something we need to work on.” Prairie Ridge goalkeeper Whitney Whitehouse was recognized by Brown as doing a phenomenal job by not only turning away the three shots she saw, but more importantly in helping out the defense on a day when nothing was certain because of the poor conditons. “She’s a great player,” Brown said. “She talks a lot back there, and because we have a younger defense, I need her leadership out there.

Jimmy Roberts, who coached Round Lake’s boys basketball team for the past three seasons, has accepted the boys head coaching position at Jacobs, sources confirmed Tuesday. Jacobs athletic director Dan Vosnos said Monday an offer had been made, but said he could not reveal who the person was. Texts to Vosnos and Roberts on Tuesday night were not immediately returned. Roberts played at Lake Zurich and was the Northwest Herald 1996 Boys Basketball Player of the Year. He played college basketball at NCAA Division II Northern Michigan. There still were details being worked out Monday with Roberts’ hiring, so he was not included on that night’s District 300 school board meeting agenda. His hiring can become official at the board’s next meeting May 13. Roberts’ Round Lake teams were 19-63 the past three years. Roberts is fourth on Lake Zurich’s career scoring list with 1,168 points. He replaces Jim Hinkle, who was at Jacobs for 17 seasons of his 49-year career. Hinkle’s career record was 543-537, which includes several years at Elgin Community College. Hinkle said he thought the Golden Eagles would be strong with the returning players and younger ones coming up in the program. Roberts will teach social studies.

NBA ROUNDUP

NBA PLAYOFFS: BULLS VS. NETS

Heat take off late, top Bucks

Bulls to try again to slow Williams

The ASSOCIATED PRESS MIAMI – All the Miami Heat really needed was two brilliant minutes to take a two-game lead over the Milwaukee Bucks. Dwyane Wade scored 21 points, LeBron James finished with 19 and the Heat took off in the fourth quarter to pull away and beat the Milwaukee Bucks, 98-86, in Game 2 of the teams’ Eastern Dwyane Wade C o n f e r e n c e first-round series Tuesday night. Chris Bosh, Shane Battier and Chris Andersen all scored 10 points for the Heat, who now lead the best-of-seven 2-0. Game 3 is Thursday in Milwaukee. The Heat scored the first 12 points of the fourth quarter, needing just more than 2 minutes to blow open what had been a three-point game. Knicks 87, Celtics 71: At New York, New York is halfway to the second round, and oncemighty Boston doesn’t seem capable of stopping it. Carmelo Anthony scored 34 points, Sixth Man of the Year J.R. Smith added 19, and New York opened a 2-0 lead over Boston with another dominant second half. Raymond Felton added 16 points for the Knicks, who used a 27-4 run spanning halftime to blow it open and move halfway to their first series victory since the 2000 Eastern Conference semifinals. This is their first 2-0 lead since sweeping Toronto in the first round that year. Paul Pierce scored 18 points for the Celtics, who will host Game 3 on Friday in their first home game since the Boston Marathon bombings.

All-Star scored 22 in Game 1, but only 8 in Game 2 By BRIAN MAHONEY The Associated Press NEW YORK – There were two versions of Deron Williams this season, and the Bulls know they need to be playing the first one. Slumping before the All-Star break and surging after, Williams turned the Brooklyn Nets into a powerful offense down the stretch with precision play that continued right through Game 1 of the playoffs. The Bulls probably can’t beat the Nets four times if the two-time Olympic point guard is rolling. But when they defend the way they did in Game 2, making him Game 3 look like the guy who battled leg pain into February, they love Brooklyn at their chances. Bulls, 7:30 So when the series p.m. Thursday, shifts to the United CSN, AM-1000 Center for Game 3 on Thursday, all eyes will be on Williams, who will have not only the ball but the entire complexion of the series in his hands. The Bulls will make him the focus of their defense. Just don’t ask coach Tom Thibodeau to tell you what they will do. “The thing is, he’s such a smart player,” Thibodeau said. “I don’t think you can give him a steady diet of anything, so try to give him some different looks.” Williams scored 22 points in the series opener, a 106-89 Brooklyn romp. He was limited to eight points, missing eight of his nine shots, as the Bulls bounced back with a 90-82 victory in Game 2. Having taken the home-court advantage, the Bulls will try again to take away Williams. “The Nets are tough,” Thibodeau said. “They’re a very well-balanced team, they play extremely hard, they play together, they have everything. They can break you down off the dribble, they can hurt you in the post, they rebound the ball, so we’ve got our work cut out for us.” The job becomes much easier when they knock Williams off his game.

Bulls guard Kirk Hinrich tries to block Nets guard Deron Williams’ shot in the second half of Game 2 of their first-round playoff series Monday night in New York. By holding Williams to eight points, the Bulls won, 90-82. The Bulls couldn’t do it in Game 1, when he also had seven assists and was just off the 22.9 points he averaged in 28 games after the All-Star break. Slowed by pain in both ankles that he had treated the week before the break, Williams managed only16.7 points a game in his first 50 disappointing games after agreeing to a five-year extension worth about $98 million in July. The Nets need Williams to get them playing at a much faster pace than the one the Bulls prefer and got in Game 2 if they want to win at United Center

and regain home-court advantage. “It’s going to be tough. I don’t think it’s going to be easy, but I think we can do it,” Williams said. Williams wasn’t the Nets’ only problem in Game 2. Joe Johnson shot only 6 of 18 and Gerald Wallace followed his 14-point opener by reverting to the player who struggled throughout the season, finishing with two points and three rebounds while shooting 1 of 7 and being badly outplayed by Luol Deng. “Obviously, we need more, a lot

Bears still need help on offensive line via the draft One year later

• BEARS INSIDER Continued from page C1 What we do know for certain is the Bears’ 74-man roster heading into the draft. That roster – which will increase to as many as 90 players by training camp and narrow to 53 by the regular-season opener – should offer the greatest clue as to Emery’s list.

QUARTERBACKS (3) Jay Cutler, Josh McCown, Matt Blanchard Analysis: Emery would like to draft a young quarterback for Marc Trestman to develop. Look for a pick in the middle rounds (say, Rounds 4 through 6), where a player such as Landry Jones from Oklahoma or Matt Scott from Arizona might be available. RUNNING BACKS (4) Matt Forte, Michael Bush, Armando Allen, Harvey Unga Analysis: It’s possible that the Bears could look for a pass-catching running back late, but Allen played well (27 carries, 124 yards, 1 TD) in limited time in 2012. Forte and Bush provide an excellent one-two punch in the backfield. RECEIVERS (8) Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery, Earl Bennett, Eric Weems, Joe Anderson, Brittan Golden, Dale Moss, Terrence Toliver Analysis: Devin Hester has become a full-time special teams player and Johnny Knox has retired, which could open up a spot for Emery to select a speed burner in the middle rounds. One idea is Texas wideout Marquise

Bears general manager Phil Emery will lead his second draft this week at Halas Hall. Here’s a look at which players Emery selected during his first year in charge in 2012. Rd (Pick) 1 (19) 2 (45) 3 (79) 4 (111) 6 (184) 7 (220)

Player Shea McClellin Alshon Jeffery Brandon Hardin Evan Rodriguez Isaiah Frey Greg McCoy

Pos. DE WR S TE CB CB

2012 season 2½ sacks, 14 QB pressures in 14 GP 24 catches, 367 yards, 3 TDs in 10 GP Spent season on injured reserve (neck) 4 catches, 21 yards in 12 GP Spent part of season on practice squad Waived as part of final cuts Aug. 31

Goodwin, who ran the 40-yard dash in 4.21 seconds.

Fluker and North Carolina’s Jonathan Cooper.

TIGHT ENDS (7) Martellus Bennett, Steve Maneri, Evan Rodriguez, Kyle Adams, Brody Eldridge, Gabe Miller, Fendi Onobun

DEFENSIVE TACKLES (4) Henry Melton, Stephen Paea, Nate Collins, Andre Fluellen

Analysis: Emery has a lot riding on Trestman, and he could help the new coach diversify his playbook by providing him with another topnotch tight end. Notre Dame’s Tyler Eifert, Stanford’s Zach Ertz and San Diego State’s Gavin Escobar could be gone in the first two rounds, so the Bears must act fast if they want another talent to join Bennett. OFFENSIVE LINEMEN (12) Jermon Bushrod, J’Marcus Webb, Roberto Garza, Matt Slauson, Jonathan Scott, Gabe Carimi, James Brown, Eben Britton, Edwin Williams, Cory Brandon, Taylor Boggs, Derek Dennis Analysis: Free-agent additions such as Bushrod and Slauson should help protect Cutler, but the Bears need more after giving up 44 sacks a year ago. Several top linemen could be available at No. 20, including Alabama’s D.J.

Analysis: The Bears need to add depth on the defensive interior, but they should be able to accomplish that in the later rounds. Melton and Paea are entrenched as the starters, while Amobi Okoye remains available as a free agent for possible backup duty. DEFENSIVE ENDS (7) Julius Peppers, Corey Wootton, Shea McClellin, Turk McBride, Kyle Moore, Cheta Ozougwu, Aston Whiteside Analysis: Emery selected a versatile pass rusher (McClellin) with his first pick last season, and he likely will look at other positions in the first few rounds this year. LINEBACKERS (9) Lance Briggs, D.J. Williams, James Anderson, Blake Costanzo, J.T. Thomas, Dom DeCicco, Patrick Trahan, Jerry Franklin, Lawrence Wilson Analysis: Emery’s mission, should he choose to accept it, Read all about it ...

is to provide the Bears with a younger, faster linebacker who can become a mainstay on defense in the years ahead. Georgia’s Alec Ogletree is the best athlete and the best option. Others include Kansas State’s Arthur Brown, LSU’s Kevin Minter and maybe, just maybe, Notre Dame’s Manti Te’o.

CORNERBACKS (7) Charles Tillman, Tim Jennings, Kelvin Hayden, Zack Bowman, Sherrick McManis, LeQuan Lewis, Isaiah Frey Analysis: Tillman is 32, Jennings is 29 and Hayden will turn 30 in July, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to add youth here. Some have suggested that Washington’s Desmond Trufant is a good fit at No. 20, but linebacker and offensive line are bigger priorities. SAFETIES (8) Major Wright, Chris Conte, Craig Steltz, Tom Zbikowski, Brandon Hardin, Anthony Walters, Tom Nelson, Cyhl Quarles Analysis: The Bears have drafted a safety every year since 1842 (OK, we made that up), but they have bigger needs elsewhere. Hardin will have a chance to contribute after spending his rookie season on injured reserve. SPECIALISTS (5) Robbie Gould, Austin Signor, Adam Podlesh, Patrick Mannelly, Devin Hester Analysis: Nothing to see here. Move right along. • Northwest Herald sports columnist Tom Musick can be reached at tmusick@shawmedia.com and on Twitter @tcmusick.

more offense from a number of more people than we got tonight,” Nets interim coach P.J. Carlesimo said after the game. But it all starts with Williams, and the Bulls know it. They wouldn’t let him drive all the way to the rim, making him give the ball up to teammates and living with it when the strategy backfired, such as when Brook Lopez hit a flurry of jumpers from about the same spot on the pick-and-roll in the second quarter. And when the Bulls forced Williams to shoot from the perimeter he couldn’t make them, missing all five from 3-point range, where he set an NBA record with nine in the first half of one game this season. “We were more aggressive with him,” Bulls guard Kirk Hinrich said. “He’s such a great player and so multifaceted. He can score [off] pick-androlls. He’s one of the best point guards in the league. His size and strength. Even when he is not scoring, he does a good job of finding their guys.” Hinrich, who gives away about 20 points to Williams, was the primary defender and also scored 13 points, two days after banging his hip while getting picked. “He’s a warrior,” center Joakim Noah said. “I’m just so happy that he’s back on this team because to me he really represents what Chicago Bull basketball is all about, especially right now.” Neither team practiced Tuesday, and the Bulls will have to hope Noah’s right foot came through OK after he finished with 11 points and 10 rebounds in a spirited effort while battling plantar fasciitis. He looked unable to contribute much in Game 1, scoring four points in 13 minutes, and Deng didn’t help much with only six points. Both bounced back, joining Carlos Boozer to give the Bulls all three starting frontcourt players with double-doubles. It probably meant the most to Noah, who was playing before friends and family, in the city where he grew up and played in high school, as Brooklyn hosted its first NBA playoff action. He can’t wait to be back in front of his pro fans. “It’s a whole other ballgame out there. I mean it’s not even comparable,” Noah said. “I mean, this is a great place to play basketball, but these are new fans here. They’ve been doing this for a long time over there in Chi. “It’s going to be a battle. We’ll be ready, they’ll be ready.”

Bobcats fire coach Dunlap after 1 season CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Mike Dunlap is one and done with the Charlotte Bobcats. The Bobcats fired Dunlap as coach Tuesday after a single season. The Bobcats went 21-61 under Dunlap, finishing with the second-worst record in the NBA ahead of only the Orlando Magic. Charlotte won just seven games in the lockout-shortened 2011-12 season, but tripling last year’s victory total and a three-game winning streak to close the season weren’t enough to save Dunlap’s job.

The hiring came a little less than three weeks after Rice was fired after a videotape of his practice tantrums was televised. The ensuing scandal forced the resignation of athletic director Tim Pernetti, a top university lawyer and an assistant coach.

8INSIDE BOYS TENNIS Athlete of the Week ELISHA HOUGLAND Hampshire, jr. Hougland won the Jefferson Invitational at No. 1 singles Saturday in Rockford. It was a dominant performance as Hougland lost only two games in his three matches. On Monday, he defeated Prairie Ridge’s Ryan Kohl in the completion of a rain-delayed match. It was redemption for Hougland (16-4), who lost to Kohl in the semifinals of the Fox Valley Conference Tournament at No. 2 singles a year ago.

Noteworthy Scheduling nightmare: McHenry has had only three outdoor practices this season. Hampshire, in a recent two-week stretch, had two matches and one outdoor practice that was shortened because of sleet. It’s the same across the area. Any days when the weather is decent are filled with matches or makeup matches. “It’s been a nightmare trying to fill in,” Warriors coach Kyle Funkhouser said. “We’re booked up all the way through May 7.” Funkhouser said with any more postponements, they might have to play May 8, which is scheduled for the FVC Tournament seeding meeting. Whip-Purs coach Jon Betts said this is the time of year when teams should be looking at their performances over the first half of the season and structuring practices to get ready for conference and sectional tournaments. “The bad weather is especially impactful on younger, less experienced teams that are losing much needed court time with every rainout,” Betts said. “Currently, if we have no more rainouts, we will have only three days of practice left before the conference tournament.” Funkhouser agreed and said there has been no opportunity this season to play challenge matches for his players who are not in the starting lineup. How bad is it? Of the 80 boys tennis dual matches on the schedule so far in April, just more than half were played. If you take out the first week in April, 39 of the 61 duals were canceled or

postponed because of weather. Currently, FVC teams have played as few as one division dual and as many as four. Betts said it’s time to look at the requirement to play each of the 13 FVC opponents in a dual. Before last season, the points earned in the duals were added to a team’s tournament points to determine a conference champion. Now, two division titles are awarded based on interdivision duals along with a conference tournament champion. “I think that, as coaches, we need to look at how we can better address our spring scheduling,” Betts said. “With 13 required conference matches, any weather interference can mean sacrificing a large portion of our practice load.” The next logical step, Betts said, is to consider lifting the requirement for the crossover matches. That’s not as easy as it sounds. Although the crossover duals do not impact standings, they do provide valuable information for the FVC tournament seeding, which can be contentious even with it. “It would mess the whole seed meeting up,” Funkhouser said.

Hampshire’s Crater to play 2 sports at Olivet Nazarene Tyler Crater has a standard answer when asked which sport is his favorite. “I always told them it depends what time of year it is,” said Crater, Hampshire’s man for all seasons. Football was something he did well because he was fast and strong. Basketball and baseball are his best sports. Picking one over the other was too difficult, so he refused to do it. Crater, who will finish his high school career with nine varsity letters, has committed to play basketball and baseball at NAIA Olivet Nazarene in Bourbonnais. Crater scored 30 on the ACT and will receive academic and athletic scholarships (for both sports), which will cover most of his costs at the school. Crater (6-foot-3, 185 pounds) was a Northwest Herald All-Area first-team selection after scoring 18.0 points a game for the Whip-Purs, who were 23-6. He passed 1,000 points for his career.

PREP ZONE Joe Stevenson “Coming into my senior year, I always thought I’d have to pick one and before basketball season I was leaning toward baseball,” said Crater, a four-year starter in baseball where he now plays catcher. “But after the year Tyler Crater I had in basketball, I couldn’t see myself giving that sport up.” Crater considered three NCAA Division III schools – Carthage, Illinois Wesleyan and Augustana – along with Olivet. Illinois Wesleyan was the choice of Woodstock’s Jordan Turner, a friendly rival of Crater’s the past three seasons in the Fox Valley Conference Fox Division.

“I talked with Jordan a little bit,” Crater said. “I think their coach asked him to call me.” Crater knows playing two sports at Olivet Nazarene will not be easy. “It’s going to be a lot of work,” Crater said. “I know the challenges that will be there, but at the end of the day, I couldn’t see myself not playing both sports.”

CHICAGO – April’s continuing miserable weather claimed yet another Chicago baseball game Tuesday night. The White Sox’s scheduled home contest with the Cleveland Indians was the second postponement of a current eight-game home stand because of inclement weather. It’s also Next the fourth in Chicago since vs. Cleveland, t h e b a s e b a l l season opened 1:10 p.m. Wednesday, t h r e e w e e k s WGN, AM-670 ago. Two Cubs home games also have been rescheduled because of rain or cold conditions. The game was called three hours and 35 minutes before the scheduled first pitch. Tuesday’s scheduled starters, Zach McAllister for Cleveland and Jose Quintana for the Sox, will be pushed back to pitch in Wednesday afternoon’s series finale. Tuesday’s game has not been rescheduled, although the Indians return to Chicago

Wednesday’s forecast calls for cool but clearing conditions for the 1:10 p.m. start. The unscheduled day off might be a blessing in disguise for the Sox, who have dropped four straight, 10 of their past 13 and are hitting .204 (66 of 323) over the past 10 games. “For us, it’s one of those you’re beating yourself right now,” Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “You’re giving yourself a lot of opportunities

and playing just sloppy. That’s where guys get frustrated. We all get frustrated. When that gets cleaned up, you’re in games and when that feeling turns you’re going to win games, that’s a big boost of momentum once you get it.” The weather might also be a factor, but the Sox have grown accustomed to poor conditions. “It’s rougher than most places [but] you just get used to it,” Ventura said. “It’s one of those you’re not always sure about getting rained

But you’re pretty sure you’re going to play in cold weather and wind and all that stuff.” Sox catcher Hector Gimenez, who was hit by a pitch in the shin and left in the seventh inning of Mondays’ 3-2 loss to the Indians, told Ventura he was feeling better the next day. “He said he looks fine,” Ventura said. “That’s one of those that hurts at the time. He was going to get run for anyway. He wanted to stay in, but he’s going to be fine.”

Tuesday’s postponement was the third for Cleveland, which had back-to-back games from April 10 and 11 against the New York Yankees rescheduled. The games will be made up as part of a traditional doubleheader May 13. Three weeks into the baseball season and Indians outfielder Nick Swisher can’t contain himself about the excitement for his new team, riding a current three-game winning streak.. Swisher signed with the Indians in the offseason after four seasons with the Yankees. “It’s just a great group of guys around here,” he said. “It’s a good core of new guys that we have. ... Now we’re all try to get to that we point where we are all trying to gain loyalty together and trust and it goes with the coach on down.” Swisher already is a big fan of new manager Terry Francona and was happy to hear he’d be used as a designated hitter to get some added rest. “I have never had that ever in my life,” Swisher said. “To have a manager really looking out for you like that just makes coming to the ballpark awesome every single day. And not only that, it makes you want to run through a brick wall every time you get the opportunity because you got a guy like that backing you.”

MLB NOTES

Braves sweep Rockies Quentin returns inn.): At Boston, Bartolo Co-

The ASSOCIATED PRESS DENVER – B.J. Upton and his brother Justin hit back-toback homers for the first time, leading the Atlanta Braves past the Colorado Rockies, 10-2, on Tuesday night to complete a doubleheader sweep that began with the coldest game at Coors Field. It was the 27th time in major league history that brothers homered in the same game, but only the second time they went deep in consecutive at-bats. Lloyd and Paul Waner of the Pittsburgh Pirates also accomplished the feat Sept. 15, 1938. In the first game, Justin Upton, Dan Uggla and rookie Evan Gattis homered in support of a solid outing by Mike Minor as the Braves won, 4-3, in a game that began with a temperature of 23 degrees. The weather warmed up for the night game – but only a bit. It was 30 degrees at first pitch. Cardinals 2, Nationals 0: At Washington, Adam Wainwright extended his sterling start to the season – and Washington’s mediocre one – by coming within two outs of his second shutout for St. Louis. Wainwright (4-1) lowered his ERA to 1.93 by allowing five hits in 8⅓ innings. Pirates 2, Phillies 0: At Philadelphia, Jeff Locke pitched six innings of two-hit ball and Gaby Sanchez homered off Cole Hamels to lead Pittsburgh over Philadelphia. Dodgers 7, Mets 2: At New York, Mark Ellis lined two

Robinson Cano ended AL Cy Young Award winner David Price’s night with a leadoff single in the ninth. Tampa Bay is winless in all five of Price’s starts this year.

Minneapolis, Oswaldo Arcia hit his first career home run and Kevin Correia gave up two runs in seven innings, leading Minnesota over Miami in the opener of a daynight doubleheader. The Marlins’ offense finally showed some life in the nightcap with an 8-5 victory. Arcia’s three-run homer in the fourth backed Correia (21), who allowed five hits and struck out five in the opener. The Twins shrugged off yet another chilly day to win their fifth straight. Brian Dozier had three hits, and Glen Perkins got his sixth save. In the second game, Rob Brantly had three hits and a career-high four RBIs for Miami. Brantly had two doubles and Ricky Nolasco (1-2) allowed two earned runs on six hits in five innings for the Marlins, who won for just the fifth time this season. Miami had a season-high 16 hits, including a double, a single and two RBIs from struggling slugger Giancarlo Stanton. Steve Cishek got his second save. Joe Mauer had two hits and an RBI, while Mike Pelfrey (2-2) had another rough outing, giving up five runs on nine hits in 4⅔ innings as the Twins lost for the first time in six games.

after 8-game ban The ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN DIEGO – Padres outfielder Carlos Quentin returned to San Diego’s lineup Tuesday night and said he has spoken with Dodgers right-hander Zach Greinke after a scuffle that left the pitcher with a broken left collarbone and Quentin with an eight-game suspension. Quentin charged Greinke after he was hit by a pitch during a game April 11, leading to a bench-clearing brawl in San Diego. Carlos Quentin “First, I thanked [Greinke] for taking time to speak with me,” Quentin said before Tuesday’s game against Milwaukee. “We were able to talk and have a good productive conversation. As far as the details of that conversation, that’s personal.” Greinke had hit Quentin twice over the past few seasons before the pitch that led to the fight. Quentin, who was batting cleanup against the Brewers, said he has spent most of his suspension “hitting, throwing and running.” He also said his balky knee has benefited from the rest.

Major League Baseball said the session Thursday in New York was planned before the attacks last week. “This stadium operations meeting scheduled for later this week was not a product of the incidents in Boston,” MLB spokesman Michael Teevan said Tuesday. “It is a part of our ongoing efforts to discuss state-of-the-art security measures with the clubs, and it’s standard operating procedure.” Among the security topics that could be discussed are backpacks that fans bring into ballparks.

Manager Dale Sveum said before the game he’s been impressed by the performance, but wasn’t ready to make Marmol the full-time closer just yet. Instead, he was going to go by pitcher-batter matchups to finish games. He had one of the best ones in his favor in the ninth. Joey Votto was 1 for 15 career against Marmol with

nine strikeouts when he came to the plate. This time, he singled up the middle, scoring Choo to tie it at 2. “Those numbers don’t lie,” Sveum said of Votto’s struggles against Marmol. “He got the ground ball. It’s like, ‘Really? He can’t hit it at somebody? You’re kidding me.’ ” Marmol (2-1) then escaped a bases-loaded threat to keep it tied. “The ninth inning was big,” Reds manager Dusty Baker said. “I’ve said that a lot of times if you don’t come all the way back, it usually doesn’t work out for you.” The Cubs’ slumping second baseman put them in position

to enjoy some postgame music. Barney missed the first two weeks of the season after needing five stiches to close a cut on his left knee. He was only 3 for 26 without an RBI before he connected in the 10th off left-hander Manny Parra (0-1). “I wouldn’t say I needed that,” said Barney, who slapped his hands together as he rounded the bases. “I think our team needed that win. Obviously it was nice to get an RBI.” Dave Sappelt added an RBI single off Parra.

Guan blending into crowd There was a time when a 14-year-old on the PGA Tour would be considered big news. It’s starting to feel like old news. Guan Tianlang tees it up Thursday at the Zurich Classic in New Orleans, which must feel like a significant step down from where he was two weeks ago. He played practice rounds at Augusta National with Tom Watson and Tiger Woods. He played in the Masters alongside Ben Crenshaw. He was in Butler Cabin when Adam Scott first slipped on the green jacket. Guan was the low amateur. The emphasis should be on the Chinese teen’s performance – the youngest to play 72 holes in a major, nothing worse than a bogey all week, no three-putts on some of the fastest, most frightening greens in golf – and not on his birth certificate. Age is just a number. Teenagers have been dotting the professional golf landscape for the last decade. Despite a one-shot penalty for slow play on the 17th hole of his second round, Guan still made the cut against a 93-man field at the Masters. Remember, it was only nine years ago when another 14-year-old – Michelle Wie – shot 68 and missed by one shot making the cut against a 143-man (and one girl) field at the Sony Open. Morgan Pressel was 13 when she played in the 2001 U.S. Women’s Open at Pine Needles, a record that was broken six years later by Alexis Thompson, who was 12. Thompson went on to win an LPGA Tour event when she was 16, a record that was broken last year by 15-year-old Lydia Ko in the Canadian Women’s Open. Ryo Ishikawa was 15 when he won the Munsingwear Open KSB Cup on the Japan Golf Tour, making him the youngest player to win on one of the six major golf tours. That record still stands. For now. Guan has no illusions of winning the Zurich Classic. He spent some three weeks at Augusta National getting ready for the Masters and its 7,435-yard course. Next up is the TPC Louisiana, which is

College Football Playoff Fed’s case says Armstrong to replace BCS in 2014 was ‘unjustly enriched’ By JIM VERTUNO

By RALPH D. RUSSO

The Associated Press

The Associated Press PASADENA, Calif. – The Bowl Championship Series will be replaced by the College Football Playoff. The BCS conference commissioners announced the name of the new postseason system that starts in 2014 on Tuesday, the first of three days of meetings at a resort hotel in the Rose Bowl’s backyard. They also will choose the remaining three sites for the sixbowl semifinal rotation in the new system and the site of the first championship game to be played Jan. 12, 2015, this week. The website collegefootballplayoff.com already is up and running and allowing fans to vote on a new logo. It also has a Twitter handle: @cfbplayoff. “It’s really simple. It gets right to the point,” BCS executive director Bill Hancock, who will hold the same position in the playoff system, said at a short news conference with the 10 commissioners of the FCS conferences. “Nothing cute. Nothing fancy. We decided it would be best to call it what it is.” Premiere Sports Management in Overland Park, Kan., was hired to help come up with a name and brand the new system. A committee of commissioners handled the naming of the new system. Hancock said they ran through “in the neighborhood of three dozen” names. Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott said, “We’re clearly trying to make a clear break from the BCS.” Before the news was reported, Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany said he’d be happy with whatever was selected. “I am not good with names – obviously,” Delany said during a break in the meetings, referring to the Big Ten’s division

Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany talks to reporters during a break from a meeting of the Bowl Championship Series NCAA college football conference commissioners Tuesday in Pasadena, Calif. The new four-team playoff starting after the 2014 regular season that will replace the BCS will be called the College Football Playoff. names, Legends and Leaders, that produced so much negative feedback the conference already has decided to change them. The new postseason format will create two national semifinals to be played New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day, with the winners advancing. The six bowls in the playoff rotation will host marquee, BCStype games on New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day during the seasons they do not host a semifinal. “I don’t think you can ever go too wrong calling something what it is,” Scott said. “Things that make sense tend to stand the test of time.” Three semifinal spots already have been decided: the Rose, Orange and Sugar bowls. Four other bowls have bid for the final three spots. The clear front-runners are the Cotton, Chick-fil-A and Fiesta. The Holiday Bowl in San Diego also put in a bid, but even its organizers have acknowledged they are a long shot at best to land the game.

Those decisions will be announced Wednesday. The coaches on the Big 12’s spring teleconference already were talking about the Cotton Bowl having a spot in the rotation as if it was a done deal. “I think it’s really exciting for this region, for everybody, and I think all of the schools in this region, to have Dallas as one of those sites is great for everybody in this region, and exciting for everybody,” Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said. “Obviously, everybody knows what a great and quality, what an awesome stadium it is, then the location for us is an advantage, or should be.” The first semifinals will be played at the Rose and Sugar bowls. The site of the first national championship game in the new system also will be determined at these meetings and the finalists are Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the Cotton Bowl, and Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla., home of the Buccaneers.

AUSTIN, Texas – The Justice Department laid out its case in a lawsuit against Lance Armstrong on Tuesday, saying the cyclist violated his contract with the U.S. Postal Service and was “unjustly enriched” while cheating to win the Tour de France. The government previously had announced it would join the whistle-blower lawsuit brought by former Armstrong teammate Floyd Landis. Tuesday was the deadline to file its formal complaint. The Postal Service paid about $40 million to be the title sponsor of Armstrong’s teams for six of his seven Tour de France victories. The

filing in U.S. district court in Washington, D.C., said the USPS paid Armstrong $17 million from 1998 to 2004. The lawsuit also names former team Armstrong team director Johan Bruyneel and team management company Tailwind Lance Sports as deArmstrong fendants. The financial costs for Armstrong and Bruyneel could be high. The government said it would seek triple damages assessed by the jury. “Defendants were unjustly enriched to the extent of the payments and other benefits they received from the USPS, either directly or indirectly,”

the complaint said. Armstrong, who in January admitted using performance-enhancing drugs after years of denials, has argued that the Postal Service’s endorsement of his team earned the government agency far more than it paid him. Armstrong attorney Elliot Peters called the government’s complaint “opportunistic, and insincere.” “The U.S. Postal Service benefited tremendously from its sponsorship of the cycling team. Its own studies repeatedly and conclusively prove this. The USPS was never the victim of fraud. Lance Armstrong rode his heart out for the USPS team, and gave the brand tremendous exposure during the sponsorship years,” Peters said.

Madison’s new cookbook a must-have By JOE YONAN

Deborah Madison’s recipes to try

The Washington Post Who’s your favorite expert on cooking vegetables? For so many of us, it has long been Deborah Madison, she of “The Greens Cookbook,” “Local Flavors,” the landmark “Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone” and more. As a gardener, former farmers market manager and chef (with cooking chops honed at Chez Panisse and Greens), Madison knows her produce and what to do with it. In her latest book, “Vegetable Literacy” (Ten Speed Press; $40), she aims to bring us closer to her level of knowledge by helping us think about the subject in a new way. It’s a must-have book for anyone interested in plant-based cooking. The book’s subtitle is “Cooking and Gardening With Twelve Families From the Edible Plant Kingdom, With Over 300 Deliciously Simple Recipes.” Indeed, her

On the Net: Find Madison’s Peas With Baked Ricotta and Bread Crumbs, Carrot Almond Cake With Ricotta Cream and Kale and Potato Mash With Romesco Sauce at PlanitNorthwest.com. mission is to illuminate the connections among vegetables from the same family, to show how they can be treated in

similar ways in the kitchen, used interchangeably and sometimes together. Virtually every page of “Vegetable Literacy” contains a nugget of helpful or just plain interesting information. (I’d call it trivia, except in Madison’s lyrical telling, nothing seems trivial.) Madison paves the path to literacy with delicious recipes, illustrated by “Canal House” queens Christopher Hirsheimer and Melissa Hamilton and their trademark style of luscious-meets-rustic photography. Plenty of cooks will skip all the botanical and gardening information, as fascinating as it is, and merely get to work envisioning and making their next meal. Success awaits. To spoon into Peas With Baked Ricotta and Bread Crumbs is to marvel at a match made in heaven. To bite into Carrot Almond Cake is to wonder: Why didn’t I think of that? Because you’re not vegetable-literate yet, that’s why. But you’re getting there.

Before you buy

love Gwyneth Paltrow. I do – as an actress, as a celebrity, as an organic-hemp-clad organism gliding along the surface of life, occasionally shedding tendrils of blond hair that her followers may gather into some artisanal craft project for her website, Goop. I loved her when she and boyfriend Brad Pitt had matching hairstyles, and when she and boyfriend Ben Affleck had matching best friends, and when she and husband Chris Martin named their children Apple and Moses. I have seen her blockbuster movies, and her Britishy movies, and the movies for which I sat alone in empty theaters and murmured, “Oh, Gwynnie. Why?” So pure is my devotion that on a weekday morning, I have risen early to peel a lemon and gently place it in the blender along with a cube of fresh ginger, a sprig of mint, a roughly chopped apple and five de-spined leaves of kale. And that right now, when the pulpy mass doesn’t pour through the strainer the way it’s supposed to, I am, in a very serene and enlightened manner, mashing it through with my bare hands. “It’s all good,” I tell myself. “It’s. All. Good.” Gwyneth Paltrow has co-written a cookbook, “It’s All Good: Delicious, Easy Recipes That Will Make You Look Good and Feel Great” – and sell great, too, because two weeks before its release, the book was the No. 1 ranked cookbook on Amazon. While waiting for my pre-breakfast Best Green Juice to finish draining – “Just about as energizing as a cup of coffee,” Gwyneth has promised – I begin the recipe for my actual breakfast: Millet Fig Muffins. I dutifully measure out my gluten-free flour, my raw millet, my unsweetened almond milk. I grind flax seed, pinch fine sea salt, toss chopped figs in a spoonful of the dry ingredients, line my muffin tins with paper liners. It’s only noon, and I’m almost done cooking my first meal of the day. Time to settle down with my green juice, which has acquired a bright emerald color and tastes like a cross between a lemon and a lawn, and wait for the timer to buzz. Meanwhile, we have 20 to 25 minutes to ponder the meaning of Gwyneth Paltrow. Weeks before “It’s All Good” was officially released, critics were preemptively despising it: One outlet bothered to calculate the ratio of pictures-of-Gwyneth to pictures-of-actualfood (The Washington Post did that with her previous cookbook, 2011’s “My Father’s Daughter”); another outlet posted a caustically curated collection of its most absurd lines;

Washington Post photo

e.g., “I once overnighted a batch from London to my manager in Los Angeles who was doing the clean program and was dying for a cookie!” or: “We basically can’t live without Veganaise.” (Not absurd, I would argue; merely Gwynethian, a particular state of lovely obliviousness, a well-intentioned froth.) There are other celebrities in America who are more clueless, more doe-dazed than Gwyneth. But they don’t lay themselves bare the way she does, nakedly offering herself up for scrutiny again and again, a flayed fillet of fame. In 2008 she was just an actress, a good one, the Oscar-winner in the Pepto ball gown, who seemed coltish but kind. Then she launched Goop, billed as a way to help readers save time, simplify their lives, feel inspired and generally share “all of life’s positives.” Oh, Gwynnie. Why? On Goop, Gwyneth prances about wearing Alexander McQueen skirts ($855) and carrying Valentino iPad cases ($795). She extols thousand-dollar throw-blankets, hundreddollar journals, four-hundred-dollar nesting bowls. On the site’s current home page, Gwyneth stares soulfully into visitors’ eyes and encourages them to buy “beautiful, rad” jewelry from a new collection, starting at $1,250 for an earring shaped like a safety pin. Everything Gwyneth does – Goop, her 2007 food tour with Mario Batali, “My Father’s Daughter” – comes from such a heartfelt, helpful place. She wants the world to be beautiful. She wants you to find peace. She’s never evil; she’s just slightly tonedeaf, slightly off, like a combination lock that will not open because you are misreading the eight as a nine. There’s something that people find repellent about Gwyneth – something beautifully, preciously repellent, a “Let them eat quinoa” mentality that infuses all of her work.

• GWYNETH Turkey and Black Bean Chili With Sweet Potatoes

Continued from page D1

Washington Post photo

Turkey chili a highlight of Paltrow’s ‘It’s All Good’ Gwyneth Paltrow likes to top portions of this chili with her Spicy Cashew Moment (recipe below) and pickled jalapeño peppers. She recommends making this a vegan recipe by omitting the ground turkey and doubling the amount of black beans. We found this rather mild; you may wish to add another 1/2 teaspoon each of the sweet smoked paprika and chili powder in the last 15 minutes of cooking.

Turkey and Black Bean Chili With Sweet Potatoes Makes 6 1/2 cups (4 servings) 14 ounces sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch chunks 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil Coarse sea salt 1 large yellow onion, diced (1 1/2 cups) 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 teaspoon ground cumin, or more to taste 1/2 teaspoon sweet Spanish smoked paprika (pimento dulce), or more to taste 1/2 teaspoon mild chili powder, or more to taste 1 pound ground turkey, preferably dark meat 28 ounces canned, no-salt-added whole peeled tomatoes 1/2 cup water 14 ounces cooked or canned

no-salt-added black beans (if using canned, drain and rinse; see headnote) Chopped fresh cilantro, for serving Chopped fresh scallions, white and light-green parts, for serving

for 20 minutes. Stir in the beans and the cooled sweet potatoes; taste, and adjust the seasoning as needed. Cook for 15 minutes to blend the flavors. Divide among individual bowls; top with the cilantro and scallions. Serve hot.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone liner. Toss the sweet potato chunks with 2 tablespoons of the oil until well coated, then spread on the baking sheet in a single layer. Sprinkle with a good pinch of the sea salt. Roast for about 20 minutes or until softened, stirring a few times. Let cool. Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Once the oil shimmers, add the onion, garlic, cumin, paprika, chili powder and a big pinch of salt, stirring to coat. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until softened. Add the turkey; cook, stirring a few times, until the meat is cooked through and its moisture has evaporated, which should take about 20 minutes. The turkey should be well incorporated into the onion mixture. Add the tomatoes and a big pinch of salt; increase the heat to high and add the water. Once the mixture comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cook, uncovered,

While I was shopping for ingredients for this story – $80 for a day’s worth of meals, though that included several jars of spices I’ll probably use again – the man behind me in the checkout aisle pointed to the copy of “It’s All Good” lying in my cart. “Is it out yet?” he asked. “I didn’t think it was out yet.” I explained that this was an advance copy and that the official release wasn’t for another two weeks. “Do you think you’ll buy it?” I asked. “Of course. Don’t you just haaate her?” •••••• The Millet Fig Muffins come out of the oven, and they are a disgrace. The batter was tasty – no raw eggs, so I tried some – but the finished product is bakingsoda bitter. I put them out at work for my coworkers; one e-mails 15 minutes later – a man who has been known to eat cold leftover french fries from other people’s desks – and says, “These are, uh, interesting.” It’s All Goop. Even so, I think hating Gwyneth is too easy. Lazy, really. I’d prefer to delve into “It’s All Good” and come out with a better understanding of Gwyneth. Because “It’s All Good” is undoubtedly a cookbook that only Gwyneth Paltrow could have composed. Literally, as she’s everywhere in it: riding a moped, carrying a bushel of greens, throwing her arm around her coauthor Julia Turshen in 300 pages of evolved foodery. But also because it so perfectly illustrates everything that her detractors find off-putting. The book opens with Gwyneth describing her quest to clean out her system and become more healthy after having a migraine she mistook for a stroke. (She thought, she says, that she was going to die.) Her doctor prescribes a diet: “No coffee, no alcohol, no dairy, no eggs, no sugar, no shellfish, no deepwater fish, no potatoes, no tomatoes, no bell pepper, no eggplant, no wheat, no meat, no soy.” It’s fascinating to witness a cookbook composed from a place of such intense deprivation – a purported

goal of simple nutrition transformed into a complicated Gwynethian odyssey. I’ve been a vegetarian for a decade; blindfolded, I can differentiate between soy, almond, rice and hemp milks. But my day of cooking with Gwyneth sent me to heretofore uncharted crannies of Whole Foods Market. For a condiment called Spicy Cashew Moment (“It’s hard to say exactly what this is,” Gwyneth enthuses), I’m blowing the dust off a tin of pimenton; for a grilled-corn recipe, I’m wondering whether regular chili powder will suffice or whether I need to drive to an Asian market for a jar of Korean gochugaru. I’m pondering philosophical questions: Is Avocado Toast – as Gwyneth claims – like “a favorite pair of jeans – so reliable and easy and always just what you want?” The kick of it is that the food is good. Really, all of it, aside from the muffins. The Korean corn was good, the tahini dressing I whipped up for a salad was delicious and the vegetarian version of her black bean chili was better than the black bean chili recipe I’ve been making – and bragging about – for years, though I ended up doubling the chili powder and pimenton for more flavor. Preparing it made me feel healthy and pure; I felt compelled, in the middle of the cooking day, to stop and do an hour of yoga. “The Cashew Moment is what really makes this,” my husband said as we sat down to bowls of chili that night, topped with said condiment. “Thank you,” I said, and then proceeded to tell him how I’d lovingly sauteed the raw cashews in olive oil and spices, then blended the mixture until it was creamy; how I had a hot oil burn from a Cashew Moment incident but thought it was all worth it. “It tastes like mashed Saltines,” he said. “Nuh-uh.” The next day, while eating leftovers, I sneaked into the kitchen. I got down a box of crackers and crumbled them over the top of the chili, to prove to myself how wrong he was, and how worthy my labors had been. But he was right, bless him, he was right. Don’t tell Gwyneth; it would break her heart.

Cauliflower comes alive with saffron, parsley and pepper flakes In this approach, the vegetable becomes golden, aromatic and lively in the mouth. Serve it with or without the pasta. When sweet gulf shrimp are in season, you’ll want to add them to the recipe and omit the cheese.

1 heaping tablespoon chopped dill or marjoram 2 ounces or more feta cheese, crumbled 1/3 cup raw unsalted pistachio nuts, lightly toasted Freshly ground black pepper Crushed red pepper flakes

Cauliflower With Saffron, Pepper Flakes, Plenty of Parsley and Pasta

Cauliflower With Saffron, Pepper Flakes, Plenty of Parsley and Pasta 4 servings 1 head cauliflower, broken into small florets, the core diced (about 6 cups) Sea salt 8 ounces dried small pasta shells, snails or other shapes 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for tossing the pasta 1 small onion, finely diced 2 pinches saffron threads 1 large clove garlic, minced Scant 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes 1/4 cup finely chopped, lightly packed flat-leaf parsley 1/2 cup water Grated aged cheese or crumbled feta cheese (optional) Bring a wide pot of water to a boil over high heat. (The pot should be large enough and deep enough for cooking the pasta.) Place the cauliflower florets and diced core in a heatproof colander and place it over the pot; cover and steam for about 3 minutes. To test for doneness, taste a piece; it should be on the verge of tenderness but not quite fully cooked. Uncover and transfer the colander to the sink to drain. If needed, let the water return to a boil, then add a generous pinch of salt and the pasta. Cook just until al dente. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and saffron;

cook for about 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onion has softened. The heat will activate the saffron so that it colors and flavors the onion. Stir in the garlic, the crushed red pepper flakes and a few pinches of the parsley, then add the steamed cauliflower. Toss to coat it evenly, then add the water and cook (over medium heat) until the cauliflower is tender, just a few minutes. Season with salt, toss with half of the remaining parsley, and keep warm. While the cauliflower is cooking, drain the pasta and transfer it to a warmed bowl. Toss with a few tablespoons of oil and the remaining parsley. Taste for salt, then spoon the cauliflower over the pasta, wiggle some of it into the pasta crevices, sprinkle the cheese on top (to taste) and serve.

Variation: Peel and devein 1 pound of gulf shrimp, then saute them over high heat in olive oil until pink and firm, after 5 minutes or so. Toss them with chopped garlic and parsley, then divide them among the individual pasta plates or heap them over the top of the communal dish. Omit the cheese.

spinach crowns to use in another dish; or steam them, dress them with olive oil and pile them over the rice. If you prefer brown rice, try brown basmati. Forbidden black rice is another delicious alternative.

Once the water returns to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the liquid is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat. Meanwhile, discard any tough spinach stems. Plunge the leaves into plenty of cold water and wash them well – twice if need be – then dry. Combine the oil and garlic in a large skillet over medium-high heat; once the garlic begins to turn pale gold and flavor the oil, discard the garlic, then add the spinach and a few pinches of salt. Cook until the spinach has wilted, which will happen rather quickly; then turn off the heat. When the spinach is cool enough to handle, chop it and transfer it a mixing bowl, along with the lemon zest and dill. Toss to incorporate. Uncover the rice and use a fork to fluff it, then transfer the rice to the mixing bowl and toss to incorporate. Taste, and add salt as needed. Add the feta and pistachios and toss again. Season with black pepper and a few pinches of the crushed red pepper flakes. Serve immediately, or let cool a bit.

A few healthy substitutions keep Swedish meatballs on the menu My Swedish meatballs are made with a combination of lean ground turkey breast and ground pork. They are flavored with nutmeg and cardamom and simmered in a creamy mushroom sauce. They can be served over a brown rice pilaf spiked with almonds and currants or whole-wheat egg noodles. With a few food exchanges, you can make this dish gluten-free.

Healthier Swedish Meatballs Yield: 20 meatballs 1/2 cup finely chopped onion 1/4 cup dry whole-wheat breadcrumbs (for gluten free, use cornflake crumbs) 3/4 teaspoon salt, divided 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom (optional) 8 ounces ground turkey breast

THE PERSONAL CHEF Debi Stuckwisch 8 ounces ground pork 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 1 pound organic button mushrooms, sliced 1 14-ounce can reduced-sodium organic chicken broth 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (substitute rice flour for gluten free) 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream 1/4 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley 1 tablespoon organic seedless raspberry jam

the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally and reducing the heat if the pan gets too hot, until almost cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add mushrooms to the pan and increase heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until their liquid has been released and evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes. Whisk broth and flour in a bowl and add to the pan along with the meatballs. Bring to a simmer and cook until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce is thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add sour cream, parsley, jam and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt to the sauce; gently stir until combined. Serve hot over rice or egg noodles.

Combine onion, bread crumbs, 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper, nutmeg and cardamom (if using) in a large bowl. Add turkey and pork. Gently mix to combine (do not overmix). Using a scant 2 tablespoons of mixture, make about 20 meatballs. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add

McHenry County “GET COOKING” SERIES

Regional

I’d love to claim this wonderful recipe required hours of arduous research and testing (not to mention the expert application of all of my hard-won culinary skills) before I was able to settle on the exact proportions of its ideal ingredients. But I’d be lying. In truth, I had almost nothing to do with it. The clams did it. Certain ingredients – including clams, mussels, rack of lamb, skirt steak and dark chocolate – make meals delicious with very little effort on your part. Really, you’d have to be an idiot to screw them up. Clams and mussels are especially generous, delivering a one-two punch of taste thrills: the succulent bivalves themselves and the deeply flavorful juices that stream out of them when they’re cooked. My favorite way to mess with clams is to steam them, as in this recipe. You toss all the ingredients into a pot, pile on the clams, put on the lid, crank up the heat, and presto! Ten minutes later the dish is done. The only problem is the clam liquor at the bottom of the pot is so tasty I’m forced to sop it up with slice after slice of bread. That’s why I decided to bulk up this dish with broccoli rabe, a healthy and savory vegetable that absorbs some of the clam liquor as it cooks (though the clam liquor that remains still cries out for at least a slice or two of toasted country-style bread). As a way of blunting the vegetable’s slightly bitter edge, your first step with broccoli rabe is to blanch it. Cut off the tough ends of the stems, then boil it all in a large pot of salted water for two minutes. Next, drain it and transfer it to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking and set the color. Finally, chop it crosswise into pieces about 1/2-inch thick. It’s just much easier to eat that way. The garlic, chili sauce, ginger and sesame oil in the broth are complements strong enough to stand up to the robustness of the broccoli rabe. After insisting above there’s no way to screw up cooking with clams, I’ve got to emphasize one crucial step, a step to ensure that the little guys turn out tender.

You need to remove each clam from the pot as it opens up. The first ones will be good to go after four or five minutes. The last clam might stay clammed up until five or six minutes later, by which time the first clams – if you’d left them in – would be horribly tough. That’s it. Quick, easy, nutritious, delicious and satisfying. Try it and see if you don’t end up happier than a clam.

Asian Steamed Clams Or Mussels With Broccoli Rabe Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 4 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1 tablespoon grated or finely chopped fresh ginger 1/2 cup finely chopped scallions (white and green parts) 3 large cloves garlic, minced 1 teaspoon Chinese chili sauce (or your favorite hot sauce) 1/2 cup dry white wine 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth 3 dozen littleneck clams or 2 pounds mussels, scrubbed well 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil 3 cups blanched and coarsely chopped broccoli rabe 8 thick slices country-style bread, toasted

In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium high. Add the ginger, scallions and garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the chili sauce, white wine, chicken broth and clams. Cover tightly and cook until the clams start to open. As they open, transfer the clams to a bowl. It will take 7 to 10 minutes for all the clams to open. Discard any clams that do not open. Keep the saucepan over medium heat. Return the clams and any liquid in the bowl to the pan. Add the broccoli rabe, then cook just until heated through. Add the sesame oil and stir well. Divide the clams and broccoli rabe, along with the cooking liquid, between 4 shallow soup bowls. Serve each bowl with a few slices of toasted bread and a soup spoon.

Aggressive girls put teenage boy in embarrassing state Dear Abby: My son is a tall, strikingly handsome teenager, although somewhat shy. Our problem is his looks attract the wrong kind of attention from aggressive girls, and it’s getting worse every year. He and his 14-year-old sister went out to eat after school yesterday, and when they returned it was obvious my son was upset and his sister was furious. She said

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips a group of college girls at a table next to them were teasing and taunting my son with blatantly sexual propositions. They went so far as to touch him suggestively as they got up to leave. I’m sure they got the

physical response from him they wanted; he is only 17, after all. But he was clearly angry, embarrassed and ashamed. He said he felt trapped and didn’t know what to do. The sexual harassment of young men is often laughed off with a wink and a nudge, but it isn’t funny. It can be as painful and damaging to men as to women. Furthermore, my son is a minor, and

I suspect the college girls were adults, if the beer on the table was any indication. I am trying to raise my son to respect women and to be a decent man, husband and father someday, but frankly, I’m at a loss as to how to help him handle this type of sexual aggressiveness from girls. Do you or any of your readers have any suggestions? – Shocked

Mom In Tennessee

Dear Mom: I can see why your son and daughter were upset. He was not only sexually harassed by those young women, but when they put their hands on him, he was ASSAULTED. When the teasing escalated, he and his sister should have changed tables or left the restaurant. If your son’s father is in the picture, he should discuss the incident with your son. If that’s not possible,

another adult male should help him understand his arousal was normal and nothing to be ashamed of. I am sure my male readers also will want to weigh in on your letter because what happened to your son was outrageous.

Noninvasive remedies relieve knee pain Dear Dr. K: I have osteoarthritis of the knee. Are there ways to relieve my knee pain without drugs or surgery? Dear Reader: Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease of the joints. If you were to take an X-ray of every bone in the bodies of people older than 50, probably most of us would have some degree of osteoarthritis in some joints. The standard treatment for osteoarthritis usually consists of anti-inflammatory and pain medications, along with weight loss and physical therapy. Eventually, if the arthritis progresses, you may need surgery. But if you’re still in the early stages of osteoarthritis, a variety of remedies may offer some pain relief: • Weight loss. The more weight you carry, the more likely you are to have knee pain. Weight loss significantly reduces the load on your knees and slows the progression of knee osteoarthritis. If you’re overweight, make weight loss a priority. • Physical therapy exercises.

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff Strengthening the muscles around your knee can help lessen your pain. A physical therapist can teach you exercises to strengthen and stretch your knee, support the joint and reduce stress on it. • Tai chi. This exercise regimen consists of a series of postures that are performed in a set, flowing sequence. Tai chi improves muscle strength and coordination, which leads to better joint stability. In addition, tai chi promotes mental calmness, which may help break the cycle of arthritis pain. Millions of people in Asia practice it every day, many because it helps relieve pain from their osteoarthritis.

• Glucosamine and chondroitin. A few years back, these supplements were all the rage to relieve arthritis pain. Time and research, however,

have produced minimal or mixed findings. I used them for my hip, but I was never convinced they helped. Some of my patients, however, have obtained relief with them. My guess is some people really do get relief, whereas others do not. • Acupuncture. This traditional Chinese practice involves the insertion of extremely fine needles into the skin at specific points. Over the past 40 years, studies have shown acupuncture clearly does relieve pain in many people.

• Assistive devices can help reduce the stress on your joints. A cane is one example. And shock-absorbing insoles, made of a gel-like material, may help cushion the joints to reduce knee symptoms. Several of these remedies worked for me for many years, and I’ll bet some will work for you as well.

• Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

‘Vanilla Ice goes Amish’ THINGS

The DIY television network is proving a comfortable home for rappers turned renovators. “Vanilla Ice Goes Amish” will debut on the network this year. Network executive Burton Jablin said the former rap star will live with an Amish community in Ohio to learn how they do construction. Vanilla Ice already has a renovation series on the network that will return for its fourth season this fall. Reverend Run of Run DMC will have a series next year starring with his wife and three children as they renovate their home. Keeping with the music theme, DIY also will feature Daryl Hall next year as he renovates a farmhouse in Connecticut.

Police: Madonna’s brother resisted arrest Authorities say the brother of pop star Madonna needed nine stiches to his forehead after he resisted arrest in a public bathroom in northern Michigan. Police say an officer tried to arrest 56-year-old Anthony Ciccone on an outstanding warrant for trespass Anthony Ciccone when he refused to leave the bathroom at the Grand Traverse County Civic Center. He confronted the officer, who brought him to the ground. Ciccone’s face hit the floor and he required stitches. Police say Ciccone’s blood-alcohol level was 0.40.

Kardashian is ready for baby Kim Kardashian says she’s gotten more used to pregnancy, is more comfortable in her skin and is no longer feeling the aches and pains of expectant motherhood. “Now I think I’m past all the awkward phases and stages, and once you feel the baby kick it’s a whole new experience,” Kardashian said while attending the E! Network Upfront in New York. “I finally really embrace it. I love it now, but it took a minute. It was a lot, you know, a lot of body changes and stuff.” The reality star has received a lot of scrutiny over how she’s chosen to dress her baby bump. For a while she avoided maternity clothes, wearing see-through tops and leather pants. The 32-year-old also opted to still wear designer clothing but in larger sizes that maybe weren’t meant for an expectant woman. Kardashian says she’s not only feeling better but is pretty calm about giving birth and isn’t nervous. “At the beginning, that was what I feared the most, and now, I mean, it’s inevitable,” she said. “It’s gonna happen. I’m really not worried or nervous.” Kardashian and her baby’s father, rapper Kanye West, know the gender of their child but are keeping it a secret. She said she’s careful when she goes shopping to not give anything away. “We buy all white,” she said, laughing. “Or we’ll go and buy both [girls’ and boys’ clothing], and then no one will know.”

Physical evidence Wellness ‘detectives’ at Cary Physical Therapy By LINDSAY WEBER editorial@shawmedia.com CARY – At 13, Deb Gulbrandson took it upon herself to learn how to do a back handspring. This resulted in an elbow injury that landed her in a cast for two weeks. Gulbrandson quickly realized that she was no gymnast and wondered why her arm still hung at such an awkward angle after the cast was removed. Nearly 50 years later, that curiosity still drives Gulbrandson in what she has made her lifelong career. “There wasn’t much in the way of women’s sports or post care after an injury back then,” Gulbrandson said. A physical therapist for 37 years, Gulbrandson, along with husband Gil, owns Cary Physical Therapy which specializes in one-on-one physical therapy, patient education and injury prevention. Cary Physical Therapy celebrates its 20th anniversary in September and Gulbrandson credits the commitment of her staff to the business’s longevity. “We’re experts in our field. We’re detectives,” Gulbrandson said. “We find out why a patient is experiencing certain issues and equip them with the proper tools and instruction to prevent or improve their situation.” Equipped with certified staff, professional therapy equipment and a passion for health and wellness, Gulbrandson’s team offers more than just your standard care. Cary Physical Therapy also offers industrial rehab for the treatment and prevention of injuries that can happen in the workplace, therapeutic Pilates and a new program for osteoporosis management. Patient care does not end when they leave Cary Physical Therapy. Patients are provided with at-home workout plans and three months of free equipment use at the facility once they graduate from physical therapy. Cary Physical Therapy also offers free osteoporosis screenings and entry assessment for new and returning

NEW YORK – Companies that do well when the economy is improving led the market higher Tuesday after several of them notched strong earnings. Coach, a maker of luxury handbags, and Netflix, which streams TV shows and movies over the Internet, were big winners after reporting profits that impressed investors. Financial stocks rose after Travelers’ earnings beat analysts’ expectations. That’s a change from earlier this year. The stock market’s surge in 2013 has been led by so-called defensive industries such as health care, consumer staples and utilities. Investors buy those stocks when they want reliable earnings and regular dividends. Until now, they have been unsure about the strength of the economic recovery and been less enthusiastic about stocks whose fortunes are more closely tied to swings in the U.S. economy. The markets closed higher even after stocks and other markets were shaken in the early afternoon when a fake tweet on the AP’s Twitter account prompted a sudden sell-off. A posting saying that there had been explosions at the White House and that President Barack Obama had been injured was sent at 1:08 p.m. The Dow immediately plunged about 143 points, from 14,697 to 14,554. The AP said its Twitter account had been hacked and the posting was fake. Within five minutes the Dow had snapped back.

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Apple is finally opening the doors to its bank vault, saying it will distribute $100 billion in cash to its shareholders over two years. Apple said it will buy back $60 billion in shares – the largest buyback authorization in history. It is also raising its dividend by 15 percent. Investors have been clamoring for Apple to give them access to its cash hoard of $145 billion. Apple’s tight grip on its cash has been blamed for the steep decline in its stock price over the winter. Apple posted results for its latest quarter that beat expectations, though net income fell 18 percent to $9.5 billion, and revenue rose a modest 11 percent from last year to $43.6 billion. Both figures beat expectations.

8IN BRIEF Report: Richest 7% got richer during recovery WASHINGTON – The richest Americans got richer during the first two years of the economic recovery while average net worth declined for the other 93 percent of U.S. households, says a report released Tuesday. The upper 7 percent of households owned 63 percent of the nation’s total household wealth in 2011, up from 56 percent in 2009, said the report from the Pew Research Center, which analyzed new Census Bureau data released last month. The main reason for the widening wealth gap is that affluent households typically own stocks and other financial holdings that increased in value, while the less wealthy tend to have more of their assets in their homes, which haven’t rebounded from the plunge in home values, the report said.

New-homes sales rise 1.5% in March to 417K WASHINGTON – U.S. sales of new homes rose in March to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 417,000. The increase added to evidence of a sustained housing recovery at the start of the spring buying season. The Commerce Department said Tuesday that sales of new homes increased 1.5 percent. The gain brought the level higher than February’s pace of 411,000, though below January’s 445,000 – the fastest pace since July 2008. New-home sales are still below the 700,000 pace considered healthy by most economists. But the pace has increased 18.5 percent from 352,000 a year ago. Steady job creation and near-record-low mortgage rates are spurring more Americans to buy houses. The rise in demand is helping to boost sales and prices in most markets. Higher prices tend to make homeowners feel wealthier and encourage more spending.

Delta posts small 1Q profit The Associated Press Delta Air Lines said government spending cuts and weak demand from vacationers are hurting revenue this month. Lower fuel prices should help to offset the decline, the airline said on Tuesday. Automatic government spending cuts that took effect last month have been cutting into air travel at some airlines. Delta said demand from last-minute travelers – a category that can include people flying on government business – began to fall in the last part of March, and that demand from leisure travelers is softer, too. Delta said per-seat revenue will fall 2 percent to 3 percent this month. In response, the airline has been keeping a lid on flying, aiming to charge more for the seats that it does offer to passengers. During the first quarter, it cut flying capacity by 3 percent. It said capacity will be flat to up 1 percent in the second quarter. The world’s second-biggest airline earned $7 million, or a penny per share, for the quarter that ended March 31. Not counting special items, it would have earned $85 million, or 10 cents per share – better than analysts had been expecting. The company reported net income of $124 million in the year-ago quarter, but excluding special items it lost $39 million, or 5 cents per share. Revenue rose 1 percent to $8.5 billion, matching analyst expectations. The first three months of the year are often money-losers for airlines. Delta says this was its best first-quarter operating profit in more than a decade. Yield, which is one way to measure fares, rose 2.1 percent. Delta’s oil refinery near Philadelphia lost $22 million because of ongoing supply disruptions from Superstorm Sandy and an outage in its gasoline production unit. In other earnings reported Tuesday: • US Airways , the nation’s fifth-largest airline posted a bigger adjusted profit as it carried more passengers, and collected more from them.

The airline earned $44 million, or 26 cents per share. Its adjusted profit was 31 cents per share. Revenue rose 3.5 percent to $3.38 billion, driven by what the airline called “a strong demand environment.” • Discover Financial Services said its first-quarter net income rose 2 percent, boosted by loan growth. Discover posted a profit after paying preferred dividends of $659 million, or $1.33 per share, up from $644 million, or $1.21 per share, in the same quarter last year. Revenue net of interest expense increased 10 percent to $1.99 billion. The company credited loan growth, revenue from Discover Home Loans, which was launched in June 2012, and lower funding costs. Total loans increased 7 percent to $60.4 billion. Credit card loans increased 5 percent to $48.7 billion. Riverwoodsbased Discover, best known for its namesake credit card, is the sixth-largest U.S. creditcard issuer. • Illinois Tool Works Inc. reported a 27 percent decline in first-quarter net income Tuesday as its revenue fell 8 percent. But the industrial products and equipment maker said its operating margins – a measure of how much of its revenue that a company gets to keep – had improved. The company, based in Glenview, said it earned $354 million, or 78 cents per share, for the quarter ended March 31, down from $486 million, or $1 per share, in the same quarter last year. After adjusting for the acquisition of the majority interest in a consumer packaging joint venture, it earned 96 cents per share for the most recent period. Illinois Tool Works said its net revenue fell to $4.01 billion from $4.36 billion a year ago. • Reynolds American Inc. said its first-quarter profit jumped 88 percent as higher prices and lower expenses from a longstanding legal settlement offset a decline in cigarette sales. The nation’s second-biggest tobacco company earned $508 million, or 92 cents per share, for the quarter ended March 31, up from $270 million, or 47 cents per share, a year ago. Adjusted earnings were 72 cents per share. The maker of Camel, Pall Mall and Natural American Spirit ciga-

rettes said revenue excluding excise taxes fell nearly 3 percent to $1.88 billion. Analysts polled by FactSet expected $1.91 billion. • The DuPont Co. said its net income more than doubled in the first quarter on a gain from the sale of its performance coatings unit and strong continuing results in its agricultural unit. DuPont, based in Wilmington, Del., reported net income of $3.35 billion or $3.58 per share for the quarter ended March 31. That’s up from $1.49 billion, or $1.58 per share, a year ago. Revenue increased 2 percent to $10.4 billion, matching Wall Street expectations, with 4 percent volume growth in North American and Latin America. Sales were flat in the Asia-Pacific region and down slightly in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Overall, global volume was up 2 percent. DuPont’s results include net income from discontinued operations after taxes of $1.9 billion, compared to $95 million in last year’s first quarter. The latest results reflect completion of the company’s sale of its performance coatings unit, which produces automotive and industrial paints, for $4.9 billion to The Carlyle Group, a private equity firm. • Johnson Controls Inc. said that it made $148 million, or 21 cents per share, for the three months ended March 31. That compared with $379 million, or 55 cents per share, a year earlier. Revenue was $10.4 billion, down 1 percent from a year ago. The Milwaukeebased company, which makes heating and ventilation systems for buildings, as well as automotive batteries and other parts, said it earned 42 cents per share, matching Wall Street’s expectations. Analysts polled by data provider FactSet, on average, expected 42 cents per share on revenue of $10.5 billion. • Coach Inc. said it earned $238.9 million, or 84 cents per share. That’s compared with $225 million, or 77 cents per share, a year ago. Revenue rose 7 percent to $1.19 billion. The financial news came as Coach also announced that Reed Krakoff, its president and executive creative director, will not renew his contract when it expires in June 2014.

Boeing Commercial Airplanes Vice President and Chief Project Engineer Mike Sinnett is sworn in prior to testifying Tuesday at a hearing investigating a battery fire aboard a Boeing 787.

FAA followed Boeing’s lead on 787 battery testing The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Federal regulators let Boeing write the safety conditions for the problematic battery system in its beleaguered 787 “Dreamliner,” prescribe how to test it and carry out those tests itself, according to testimony and documents released at a hearing Tuesday. As airlines prepare to resume flying the 787 after a three-month grounding, the National Transportation Safety Board is looking at how the Federal Aviation Administration, Boeing and the company’s subcontractors tested and approved the 787’s lithium ion batteries, and whether the government grants aircraft makers too much leeway when it comes to safety. Batteries aboard two 787s failed less than two weeks apart in January, causing a fire aboard one plane and smoke in another. The root cause of those incidents is still unknown. “We are here to understand why the 787 experienced unexpected battery failures following a design program led by one of the world’s leading manufacturers and a certification process that is well respected throughout the international aviation community,” NTSB’s Chairman Deborah Hersman said at the opening of a two-day board hearing. “We are looking for lessons learned, not just for the design and certification of

the failed battery, but also for knowledge that can be applied to emerging technologies going forward,” Hersman said. The 787, Boeing’s newest and most technologically advanced plane, is the first airliner to make extensive use of lithium-ion batteries. Since the FAA doesn’t have safety regulations for those batteries as installed equipment in planes, Boeing proposed special safety conditions the plane’s battery system should have to meet – conditions ultimately adopted by the FAA, according to documents released at the hearing. The FAA also agreed to Boeing’s proposed tests for the batteries, and the company and its subcontractors were responsible for performing those tests. In one key test, a nail was driven into one of the battery’s eight cells to create a short circuit. Based on the test results, Boeing concluded that a short circuit in one cell wouldn’t start a fire or cause the battery’s other cells to short. Yet that’s exactly what NTSB investigators say happened in the battery fire in Boston, although they still don’t know the origin of the short circuiting. The test was “state of the art at the time,” Mike Sinnet, Boeing’s chief engineer for the 787, testified at the hearing. “In retrospect, we don’t think it was conservative enough.”

Warren Buffett said, “I don’t look to jump over seven-foot bars; I look around for one-foot bars that I can step over.” At the bridge table, if you have the necessary values, sometimes you have to jump. But at least you can do it while staying irmly anchored in your chair. With that huge hint, it should not be hard to work out what South should rebid in today’s deal, after opening one heart and hearing partner respond one spade. South should rebid three hearts, which shows at least a six-card suit and typically seven winners. This usually equates to 15 or 16 highcard points (perhaps an excellent 14 or an uninteresting 17). This hand is a maximum, but that does not hurt occasionally. The play in four hearts should not be so tough. After West takes three club tricks and shifts to a spade, South wins the fourth trick with his king, draws trumps, unblocks the diamond ace, crosses to the spade ace, and discards his last spade on the diamond king. As a defensive point, how should East card so

that West knows he can cash three club tricks? There are actually two solutions. A few pairs lead the queen from ace-kingqueen, partner being asked to give a count signal. Here, therefore, East would play irst the six, then the three, to show an even number. Alternatively, if West starts with the club ace, East would play his three to deny the queen, the honor touching the two promised by West’s lead. Then, West should continue with the club queen and East should signal remaining count, playing the four to say that he has an odd number left.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - Involvements you have with certain clubs should work out very well for you in the year ahead. The more interaction you have with others, the greater your chances are for something good resulting. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- It behooves you to get in touch with someone you recently met whom you’d like to know better. Something very nice could come about through this relationship. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- People will likely be responsive to your needs. Politely express yourself if you find that you need assistance of any kind. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Try to pal around with a friend whose ideas are compatible with yours. Conditions are excellent for both of you to gain something from such an association. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Even though you’ll have little or no control over certain events, things should work out to your advantage. By the time the dust settles, your status and reputation will be enhanced. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Don’t be afraid to take a reasonable risk if conditions warrant it. Not only will your judgment be good, you’re likely to advance a personal interest. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Any project that requires imagination and creativity should be your cup of tea. Should you find yourself teamed up with one who is equally as talented, the world will be your oyster. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- A recent relationship is likely to take on much greater dimensions. Each party will begin to see the other in greater depth. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Conditions that have a strong bearing upon your material well-being could be eccentric but positive. In fact, personal gain is likely. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You should watch out for a rare opportunity to say exactly the right thing to the right person at the right time. You won’t get a second chance. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A financial development that has been looking to be disappointing could take a turn for the better. Significant gains could be on their way. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Yield to your restless urges, especially if they are directing you to get in touch with people you’ve been neglecting. You’ll be glad you did.
