Permit fees waived for flood repair Officials dispel accusations that Charles Miller Road bridge project worsened flooding By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Friday morning’s special meeting of the McHenry County Board to deal with last week’s flooding was part action, part update and part rumor control.

them that allegations that ongoing work to replace the Charles Miller Road bridge in McHenry has exacerbated Fox River flooding upstream of the project are unfounded. Board members convened the special meeting just before a regularly scheduled budget workshop. It will have to vote in early May to extend the state of emergency that Chairwoman Tina Hill, R-Woodstock, declared.

McHenry County is one of 44 counties declared disaster areas by Gov. Pat Quinn. The declaration frees up state resources to help with response and recovery, and allows the state to ask for federal assistance. Water levels on the Fox River and Nippersink Creek are slowly receding, McHenry County Emergency Management Agency Assistant Director Robert Ellsworth told board members.

Economy picks up after late stall in 2012 Growth comes despite deep government cuts The ASSOCIATED PRESS

OX LAKE – Just a month or so before Rob Robinson was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, his brother-in-law, Greg Guntharp, was diagnosed with an aggressive form of lung cancer.

As Guntharp’s cancer spread rapidly and the news only got worse, Robinson struggled with whether to offer Guntharp marijuana, which Robinson had been using recreationally for years but had been helping him with the nausea that followed chemotherapy. Guntharp, a Spring Grove

resident, was a deputy chief for the Lake County Sheriff’s Office, where he had worked for 28 years, and Robinson didn’t know what he would think of Robinson’s use of the illegal substance. Robinson didn’t offer it, and just seven months after being diagnosed, Guntharp died at the

age of 50, leaving Robinson wondering whether he could have done more to help. “I just thought, ‘Even if I couldn’t have saved him, could I have at least alleviated some of his suffering if I had had the courage to say something,’’’ he

WASHINGTON – After nearly stalling in late 2012, the American economy quickened its pace early this year despite deep government cutbacks. The strongest consumer spending in two years fueled a 2.5 percent annual growth rate in the January-March quarter. The question is: Can it last? Federal spending cuts, higher Social Security taxes and cautious businesses are likely to weigh on the economy in coming months. Most economists say they think growth, as measured by the gross domestic product, is slowing in the April-June quarter to an annual rate of about 2 percent. Many predict growth will hover around that subpar level for the rest of the year. Friday’s Commerce Department report on GDP showed that consumers stepped up spending at an annual rate of 3.2 percent in the January-March quarter – the biggest such jump since the end of 2010. Growth was also helped by businesses, which responded to the greater demand by rebuilding their stockpiles. And home construction rose further. Government spending sank at a 4.1 percent annual rate, led by another deep cut in defense. Sal Guatieri, senior economist at BMO Capital Markets, foresees more improvement in the second half of the year. “The second-half acceleration will be supported by improved household finances, pent-up demand for autos and the ongoing recovery

GENERAL INFORMATION: 815-459-4040

Seeking clarity in Illinois governor race It is almost a certainty that Gov. Pat Quinn will have a challenger in March’s Democratic primary for governor. What’s not so certain, however, is who that challenger will be. Former White House Chief of Staff Bill Daley was in McHenry this week to speak at a business luncheon sponsored by the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce. At it, he said he’s still “seriously looking” at running for governor against Quinn in the primary. He said he plans to decide in the next 60 days. That means we’ll know in 60 days whether Attorney General Lisa Madigan is running for governor because it’s unlikely Madigan and Daley will both challenge Quinn. Crain’s Chicago Business has reported as much, saying Daley has told associates that he won’t run if Madigan does and that Madigan has told “insiders” she is running. All three have knocks against

8LOTTERY

VIEWS Jason Schaumburg them. Illinois has continued to founder under Quinn’s leadership. Madigan’s father, House Speaker Michael Madigan, is a strike against her. The Daley name means a lot in Chicago, but is it a trusted name among Democrats outside of Chicago who might be wary of the political machine? The latest Crain’s/Ipsos Illinois Poll, released earlier this month, indicates Quinn could be in some trouble. Go figure. According to the poll, Madigan holds a 30 percent to 15 percent lead, with 39 percent identifying themselves as a Democrat or independent voter and undecided. The poll surveyed 618 Illinois adults between April 13 to 17. It has a margin of error of plus-minus

4.5 percent. Four percent indicated they would vote for an “other” candidate, which is where Daley would enter the equation. Quinn currently has a little more than $1.5 million in his campaign war chest. He raised more than $500,000 in the first quarter of 2013. Madigan, on the other hand, has more than $4 million raised, including the little more than $800,000 raised during the first quarter of 2013. The Republican side of the equation has a lot more uncertainty. One thing we know for sure is that U.S. Rep. Aaron Schock from Peoria won’t be running. He announced Thursday that he will seek a fourth term in Congress instead. That leaves likely candidates state Treasurer Dan Rutherford, state Sen. Bill Brady, state Sen. Kirk Dillard and Chicago businessman Bruce Rauner. Of that group, only Dillard has committed to a run. Rauner has been the hot name as of late. His explorato-

ry committee raised more than $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2013. Brady, who lost to Quinn in 2010, and Rutherford are expected to run. In the same Crain’s/Ipsos poll, Brady and Rutherford pulled in 12 percent of the vote. Rauner was at 6 percent, and Dillard (4 percent) finished behind Schock (5 percent). The primary is still a little less than 11 months away. But as the weather heats up, so will Illinois’ race for governor. The next 60 days will bring some clarity to the situation. One thing’s certain right now, even if who is running isn’t: Voters will need to elect a strong leader to get Illinois through this mess.

Advocates eye legalizing marijuana in Alaska By BECKY BOHRER The Associated Press JUNEAU, Alaska – Alaska, known for its live-and-let-live lifestyle, is poised to become the next battleground in the push to legalize the recreational use of marijuana. The state has a complicated history with the drug, with its highest court ruling nearly 40 years ago that adults have a constitutional right to possess and smoke marijuana for personal use in their own homes. In the late 1990s, Alaska became one of the first states to allow the use of pot for medicinal reasons.

Count on Me...

Then the pendulum swung the other direction, with residents in 2004 rejecting a ballot effort to legalize recreational marijuana. And in 2006, the state passed a law criminalizing possession of even small amounts of the drug – leaving the current state of affairs somewhat murky. Supporters of recreational marijuana say attitudes toward pot have softened in the past decade, and they believe they have a real shot at success in Alaska. The state is reviewing their request to begin gathering signatures to get an initiative on next year’s ballot. The pro-

posal would make it legal for those 21 and older to use and possess up to 1 ounce of marijuana, though not in public. It also would set out provisions for legal grow operations and establish an excise tax. It’s a significantly different version of the failed 2004 ballot effort that would’ve allowed adults 21 and older to use, grow, sell or give away marijuana or hemp products without penalty under state law. “The whole initiative, you can tell, is scaled down to be as palatable as possible,” said one of the sponsors, Bill Parker.

If the initiative application is accepted, backers will have until January, before the next legislative session starts, to gather the more than 30,000 signatures required to qualify the measure for the primary ballot. The effort could determine whether the pendulum swings back. The Alaska Supreme Court, in its landmark 1975 decision, found possession of marijuana by adults at home for personal use is constitutionally protected as part of their basic right to privacy, though the court made clear it didn’t condone the use of pot.

Prosecutors say official lied about tainted water By MICHAEL TARM The Associated Press CHICAGO – A prosecutor told jurors Friday that a one-time suburban Chicago water official lied for decades about drawing village water from a well tainted with a cancer-causing chemical, while her attorney declared her a scapegoat of an inner circle of powerful men. Former water department supervisor Theresa Neubauer, 55, has pleaded not guilty to lying to authorities about Crestwood pumping polluted water, which they allegedly did in order to boast to voters in the 11,000-resident village about keeping water rates low. The competing claims about Neubauer came during

Friday’s closing arguments at a federal trial in Chicago. Jurors began deliberating at about noon Friday, just after U.S. District Judge Joan Gottschall read them instructions on how to assess the evidence. It is the only trial to date in a scandal that infuriated residents and left many fearing for their health. Only two officials were charged, the other being co-defendant Frank Scaccia, the certified water operator. He changed his plea to guilty earlier this month. Taking the floor first Friday, prosecutor Tim Chapman told the jury that Neubauer helped conceal the practice. He displayed disclosure forms over several years where she indicated no

well water was drawn. Officials drew the tainted water until 2008 even after environmental officials warned in the mid-1980s that cancer-causing chemicals had oozed into the well, prosecutors have said. Officials in Crestwood, about 20 miles south of Chicago, saved nearly $400,000 annually by mixing in contaminated water with cleaner but pricier Lake Michigan water, according to prosecutors. Pending lawsuits blame the well water for a variety of illnesses. A 2010 health department report did find cancer rates were higher than average in Crestwood, but it didn’t make a definite link to the tainted water.

Illinois halts funding for charter school operator Administration said organization violated terms of a $98 million grant after failing to disclose information The Associated Press CHICAGO – Gov.

tives. The Chicago Sun-Times reported Friday that it had obtained a letter in which the

general counsel for a state agency notified the United Neighborhood Organization that it had cut off funding.

“We believe that UNO’s failure to notify the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity of an appearance of a conflict of interest arising from the familial relationship between a senior UNO official and two contractors hired to perform work with grant funds constituted a violation of ... the grant agreements,” wrote Charles M. Biggam, the general counsel for the agen-

cy, to Juan Rangel, UNO’s chief executive officer. Rangel, the head of the influential organization who also co-chaired Rahm Emanuel’s successful 2011 Chicago mayoral campaign, told the paper that UNO was “working ... to address the relevant issues.” UNO suspended doing business with D’Escoto Inc., which is owned by Federico d’Escoto,

UNO, which has received nearly $55 million of the $98 million grant for school construction projects, is in the process of completing the construction of a charter high school on the city’s South Side that will be called the UNO Soccer Academy High School.

Boston suspect moved to federal hospital FBI agents search landfill near University of Massachusetts Dartmouth for clues By EILEEN SULLIVAN and MICHAEL KUNZELMAN The Associated Press

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama vowed Friday to join Planned Parenthood in fighting against what he said are efforts by states to turn women’s health back to the 1950s, before the Supreme Court legalized abortion nationwide, and singled out the GOP-governed states of North Dakota and Mississippi for criticism. “When politicians try to turn Planned Parenthood into a punching bag, they’re not just talking about you,” Obama said, becoming the first sitting president to address the abortion-rights group in person. “They’re talking about the millions of women who you serve.” Obama asserted that “an assault on women’s rights” is underway across the country, with bills introduced in more than 40 states to limit or ban abortion or restrict access to birth control or other services. “The fact is, after decades of progress, there’s still those who want to turn back the clock to policies more suited to the 1950s than the 21st century,” he said. “And they’ve been involved in an orchestrated and historic effort to roll back basic rights when it comes to women’s health.” Last month, North Dakota Republican Gov. Jack

“The fact is, after decades of progress, there’s still those who want to turn back the clock to policies more suited to the 1950s than the 21st century.” President Barack Obama Talking about state’s decision to limit or ban abortion Dalrymple signed a law that bans abortions as early as six weeks, or when a fetal heartbeat is detected, making the state the most restrictive in the nation in which to get the procedure. Obama said “a woman may not even know that she’s pregnant at six weeks.” More than a year ago in Mississippi, a “personhood” ballot initiative that would have defined life as beginning at fertilization was defeated by 58 percent of voters in November 2011, the same election in which staunch abortion opponent Phil Bryant, a Republican, was elected governor. Bryant had campaigned for the initiative. Abortion opponents are expected to soon begin a signature-drive to get a similar initiative on the ballot in 2014 or 2015.

tion, said the CIA had Zubeidat Tsarnaeva’s name added to the terror database along with that of her son Tamerlan Tsarnaev after Russia contacted the agency in 2011 with concerns that the two were religious militants. About six months earlier, the FBI investigated mother and son, also at Russia’s request, one of the officials said. The FBI found no ties to terrorism. Previously U.S. officials had said only that the FBI investigated Tamerlan.

Muslims see little backlash after Boston bombing By RACHEL ZOLL The Associated Press NEW YORK – It looked like the backlash was starting even before the suspects in the Boston Marathon bombing were identified as Muslim. Hours after the explosions, a Bangladeshi man told police he was dubbed an “Arab” and beaten in New York. A veiled Muslim woman in a city near Boston said she was struck in the shoulder and called a terrorist. When the public learned days later that the FBI was pursuing two Muslim men of Chechen descent, American Muslims feared the worst. But the worst didn’t happen. Muslim civil rights leaders say the anti-Islam reaction has been more muted this time than after other attacks since Sept. 11, which had sparked outbursts of vandalism, harassment and violence. Ibrahim Hooper of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which monitors bias and hate crimes against

“There seems to be a much more mature, sophisticated response to this tragedy than in the past 12 years. We really do see a palpable shift.” Wajahat Ali Attorney and co-author of “Fear, Inc.”

Muslims, said his organization has seen no uptick in reports of harassment, assaults or damage to mosques since the April 15 bombings. Leaders noted a larger, broader chorus of Americans warning against placing collective blame. The change may only reflect the circumstances of this particular attack. The two suspects are white and from an area of the world, Russia’s turbulent Caucasus region, that unlike the Mideast, Americans know little about. Investigators say Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, and his brother,

Dzhokhar, 19, who had lived in the U.S. for about a decade, carried out the bombings, although it’s not clear why. But U.S. Muslims also credit a new generation of leaders in their communities with helping keep tempers in check after the attack. Many are the American-born children of immigrants who saw the impact of the 2001 terror attacks on their faith and have strived ever since to build ties with other Americans. “There seems to be a much more mature, sophisticated response to this tragedy than in the past 12 years,” said Wajahat Ali, 32, an attorney and co-author of “Fear, Inc.,” a report by the Center for American Progress on the strategies of anti-Muslim groups in the United States. “We really do see a palpable shift.” No one is suggesting Islam has been fully accepted in the U.S. Activists and commentators who have long considered the religion itself a threat to national security took to the Web and the airwaves to say Boston proved them right. Yet, American Muslim

groups – only a decade ago, more inward looking than publicly engaged – pushed back in a more confident way. As they have after any national tragedy since Sept. 11, Muslim groups issued a flurry of statements condemning the attack, organized blood drives and thanked law enforcement for protecting the country. The Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center, in the city’s Roxbury section, held vigils and formed medical teams to help with the wounded. On his Facebook page, Imam Suhaib Webb, who leads the mosque, posted a black ribbon and banner across his Facebook page with the statement, “We’re Bostonians – We mourn with the city.” “I offered my home to house stranded runners, spread information on fundraising for the victims through social media, and attended a candlelight vigil in Harvard Yard,” said Zeba Khan, who lives in Cambridge. “That is exactly where I am focusing my attention – on the victims and on the safety of my neighbors and my city.”

BOSTON – Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhohkar Tsarnaev was moved from a hospital to a federal prison medical center, while FBI agents searched for evidence Friday in a landfill near the college he was attending. Tsarnaev, 19, was taken from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, where he was recovering from a gunshot wound to the throat and other injuries suffered during a getaway attempt, and transferred to the Federal Medical Center Devens, about 40 miles from Boston, the U.S. Marshals Service said. The facility at a former Army base treats federal prisoners. Also, FBI agents picked through a landfill near the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, where Tsarnaev was a sophomore. FBI spokesman Jim Martin would not say what investigators were looking for. An aerial photo in Friday’s Boston Globe showed a line of more than 20 investigators, all dressed in white overalls and yellow boots, picking over the garbage with shovels or rakes. U.S. officials, meanwhile, said that the bombing suspects’ mother had been added to a federal terrorism database about 18 months

Red line: Obama cautious on Syria chemical weapons The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Proceeding cautiously, President Barack Obama insisted on Friday that any use of chemical weapons by Syria would change his “calculus” about U.S. military involvement in the 2-year-old civil war – but said too little was known about a pair of likely sarin attacks to order aggressive action now. The president’s public response to the latest intelligence reflected the lack of agreement in Washington over whether to use America’s military to intervene in the civil war – and if so, how. But lawmakers in both parties expressed concern that inaction could embolden Syrian President Bashar Assad and perhaps other countries including North Korea and

Iran. U.S. officials declared on Thursday that the Syrian government probably had used chemical weapons twice in March, newly provocative acts in the civil war that has President killed more Barack than 70,000 Obama people and displaced hundreds of thousands more. The U.S. assessment followed similar conclusions from Britain, France, Israel and Qatar – key allies eager for a more aggressive response to Syrian conflict. Obama, in his first comments about the new intelligence disclosure, said Friday, “For the Syrian government to utilize chemical weapons on its people crosses a line

that will change my calculus and how the United States approaches these issues.” He has issued similar warnings for months, saying the use of chemical weapons or transfer of the stockpiles to terrorists would cross a “red line” and carry “enormous consequences.” Seeking to show resolve, Obama added Friday that “I’ve meant what I said.” The president is facing political pressure from a familiar contingent of senators, led by Arizona Republican John McCain, favoring a quick and strong U.S. response. But even those lawmakers appear opposed to an American military invasion and are instead supporting creation of a protective “no-fly zone” or another narrow, safe zone inside Syria, along its border with Turkey.

Congress to withdraw FAA furloughs the most stinging and publicly visible consequences of the budget-wide cuts known as the sequester. Friday’s House approval was 361-41 and followed the previous evening’s passage by the Senate, which didn’t even bother with a roll call. Lawmakers then streamed toward the exits – and airports – for a weeklong spring recess. White House spokesman Jay Carney said Obama would sign the bill, but Carney complained that the measure left the rest of the sequester intact. “This is a Band-Aid solution. It does not solve the bigger problem,” he said. Using the same Band-Aid comparison, Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Wash., said that “the sequester needs triple bypass surgery.”

By ALAN FRAM The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Furloughed air traffic controllers will soon be heading back to work, ending a week of coastto-coast flight delays that left thousands of travelers frustrated and furious. Unable to ignore the travelers’ anger, Congress overwhelmingly approved legislation Friday to allow the Federal Aviation Administration to withdraw the furloughs. The vote underscored a shift by Democrats who had insisted on erasing all of this year’s $85 billion in acrossthe-board budget cuts, not just the most publicly painful ones, for fear of losing leverage to restore money for Head Start and other programs with less lobbying clout and popular support.

A means to pay for college has become a successful career for Chuck Casamento, owner and operator of Crystal Lake’s Casamento Painting Company. “I started the business to earn money for school. My dad has been a very successful contractor for a number of years and he taught me how to do small jobs, like decks and fences,” said Casamento, who grew up in Crystal Lake, and is a Crystal Lake South High School graduate. Casamento Painting Company specializes in interior and exterior painting and staining, aluminum siding refinishing, deck staining and restoration, drywall installation and repair, post-flood and fire repairs, mold remediation, storm damage repair and more. “We’ve expanded our services to become an all-around home repair and restoration service company,” Casamento said. When Casamento started his business in the summer of 200 as Undergraduate Decorating Pros, he was only looking for a way to pay tuition at Illinois State University, where he was studying criminal justice and Spanish. “My goal was to go into a law enforcement career, because I wanted to help people,” he said. He began with small jobs and worked his way up to painting houses. The first housepainting job was daunting. “It was just me and it was a lot of hard work. I realized that with the right people and the right equipment it could be a lot more efficient,” he said. After graduating in 2004—debt-free, thanks to his business—Casamento returned to McHenry County and continued to take painting jobs while he searched for a law enforcement position. In 2006, he was offered a position as a customs agent in San Diego. The offer forced him to make a decision. “I realized that I didn’t want to walk away from my business. I’d found a niche, and I was helping people, just in a different way. So it was a turning point for me,” he said. Committed full time to his business, Casamento began to see opportunities to grow. His market research, which involved calling competitors and evaluating their responsiveness and customer service, revealed an interesting trend. “Contractors in general have a reputation for being unreliable, so if I could do things differently, it meant a huge opportunity for me,” he said. With a goal to treat customers as he would like to be treated, Casamento proudly offers instant customer service. “When the phone rings, I answer. Because I have such dependable employees, I’m free to go out on an appointment the same day if the customer wants it. I jump right on it and have a detailed quote in their hands right away,” he said. His three full time employees have been with the company for eight years, and are experts in all areas of painting, staining, drywall installation and repair and disaster restoration. “Our crews are hard-working guys who are there to get the job done, not stand around. We work efficiently; use techniques and equipment that make the process run smoothly. Customers are in shock at how fast we get the work done,” he said. Proper preparation is the key to completing quality work on time. Casamento is also proud of his company’s ability to meet deadlines. “If we tell a customer a job will take four days, we’ll have it done in four days,” he said. He also guarantees his exterior work for three years. In the wake of the 2008 recession, the painting and contracting industry was suddenly flooded with new businesses and Casamento knew it was important to make his company stand out. He introduced drywall service, which now includes working with builders on new construction, and teamed with Expert Roofing, to do interior storm damage repair throughout northern Illinois and beyond. Casamento Painting also works with homeowners associations to complete their exterior painting needs every year. “We’ve grown our business because of exceptional customer service and quality work. We’re eager to earn your business and when you call, you can know that you’re talking to the guy in charge. No job is too small, nor is it too big,” he said.

38 die in mental hospital blaze outside of Moscow By JIM HEINTZ The Associated Press MOSCOW – The patients of the small psychiatric hospital in a Russian village were asleep or under sedation as the clock neared 2 a.m. The windows were barred and the nearest firefighters were miles away, with some impeded by rough roads and others not able to cross a nearby canal. When a blaze broke out and spread through the wooden rafters, all of this made for a prescription for tragedy: 38 people died and only three escaped. The one-story brick-andwood hospital building that caught fire long before dawn Friday housed patients with severe mental disorders, Health Ministry officials said. The fire started in a wooden annex, emergency authorities

said, and then spread to the 1950s main brick building, which had wooden beams. Health Minister Veronika Skvortsova said half of the patients took sedatives at night. She insisted the patients weren’t tied to their beds and were not given any medication that would leave them unconscious and unable to escape. At least 29 of the dead were burned alive, federal Investigative Committee spokeswoman Irina Gumennaya said. Fire trucks took about an hour to reach the scene, coming from a town 30 miles away and struggling over roads in poor condition. Firefighters from a slightly nearer town also were dispatched, but found that a ferry crossing a canal near the hospital was out of service because of high water. Investigators said the 38

dead included 36 patients and two doctors. They said a nurse managed to escape and save one patient, while another patient got out on his own. The Emergencies Ministry also posted a list of the patients indicating they ranged in age from 20 to 76. Gumennaya told Russian news agencies that most of the people died in their beds. Moscow region Governor Andrei Vorobyev said some of the hospital windows were barred. Gumennaya cited the surviving nurse as saying that the doors inside the hospital weren’t locked. Investigators said they are looking at violations of fire regulations and a short circuit as possible causes for the blaze that engulfed the hospital in the Ramensky settlement, about 50 miles north of Moscow.

Israel fears peace will end on Syrian front By ARON HELLER The Associated Press ALONEI HABASHAN, Golan Heights – Against a vista of green fields and snowcapped mountains, all is silent but for a gusting wind. Then comes a burst of gunfire from the Syrian civil war raging next door, where jihadist rebels are battling Bashar Assad’s troops in a village. Watching it all unfold from a few miles away are Israeli soldiers atop tanks behind a newly fortified fence, while a large-scale Israeli drill sends off its own explosions in the background. This is the new reality on the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, for 40 years the quietest of Israel’s front lines, a place of hiking trails, bird-watching, skiing and winery tour. The military predicts all that will soon change as it prepares for the worst – a power vacuum in Syria in which rogue groups could get their hands of the country’s large stockpile of chemical weapons. In many ways, a new era has already begun. The Syrian villages along the border change hands between military and rebel strongholds in daily battles. Their mortar shells and bullets frequently land on the Israeli side, including in some cases narrowly missing soldiers and civilians. A Syrian army tank shell landed in the border community of Alonei Habashan in February. Though Israel believes these have mostly been cases of errant fire, it has responded with firepower of its own on several occasions in the first round of hostilities since a long-term armistice took hold after the 1973 Mideast war. “This area became a huge ungoverned area and inside an ungoverned area many, many players want to be inside and want to play their own role and to work for their own interests,” said Gal Hirsch, a reserve Israeli brigadier general who is involved in the military’s strategic planning and operations. “Syria became a place that we see as a big threat to Israel and that is why we started to work in the last two years on a strong obstacle, on our infrastructure, in order to make sure that we will be ready for the future. And the future is here already.”

“This area became a huge ungoverned area and inside an ungoverned area many, many players want to be inside and want to play their own role and to work for their own interests.” Gal Hirsch Reserve Israeli brigadier general involved in military strategic planning and operations

Officials say the military’s present deployment on the plateau is its most robust since 1973, and its most obvious manifestation is the brand new border fence, 20 feet tall, topped with barbed wire and bristling with sophisticated anti-infiltration devices. The previous rundown fence was largely untested until it was trampled over last year by Syrians protesting on behalf of Palestinians. The military would not detail other measures it is taking, but stressed it was actively defining the new border arrangement now, before it could be too late. On the other side of the frontier, the village of Bir Ajam is in rebel hands and Israeli troops report watching them successfully deflect Syrian military pre-dawn raids almost daily. In a village nearby, Syrian intelligence and commando forces are based in concrete, windowless structures. At the triangle where the borders of Israel, Syria and Jordan meet along the Yarmouk River, a lone jeep is seen crossing uninterrupted from Jordan into Syria. In March, rebels kidnapped 21 Filipino U.N peacekeepers nearby. Thousands of refugees have used the route to flee the carnage into Jordan. A few injured refugees have trickled into the Golan, and the military runs a field clinic to treat them. But there’s no guarantee the trickle won’t become a flood if Jordan in the south or Turkey in the north become unreachable. “Syria right now is a kind of self-evolving system,” Hirsch said. “No one can control or predict everything.”

Possible 9/11 plane landing gear part found in NYC City looks to remove gear ‘as quickly and effectively as possible,’ medical examiner’s office will evaluate site By JAKE PEARSON The Associated Press NEW YORK – A rusted 5-foot-tall piece of landing gear believed to be from one of the hijacked planes destroyed in the Sept. 11 attacks has been discovered wedged between a mosque site and a luxury high-rise apartment building near the World Trade Center. The twisted metal part has cables and levers on it and is about 3 feet wide and 1.5 feet deep. It includes a clearly visible Boeing Co. identification number, New York Police Department spokesman Paul Browne said Friday. “The odds of this being wedged between there is amazing,” Browne said, adding it was not surprising that it went undiscovered for more than a decade given the location. “It had to have fallen just the right way to make it into that space.”

Browne said other World Trade Center wreckage had been discovered nearby, possibly even at the same buildings, in years past. Police detectives and National Transportation Safety Board investigators will determine whether the equipment is from the American Airlines plane or the United Airlines plane that slammed into the twin towers on Sept. 11, 2001, destroying the towers and killing thousands of people. The piece of equipment was discovered Wednesday by surveyors inspecting the lower Manhattan site of a planned Islamic community center, at 51 Park Place, on behalf of the building’s owner, police said. The inspector was on the roof and noticed the debris and then called 911. Police secured the scene, documenting it with photos. The spot where the landing gear was found is about three

When plans for the mosque and community center were first announced several years

ago, a furor erupted. Opponents protested that putting a Muslim facility near ground zero showed disrespect. Sup-

porters cited freedom of religion and said it wasn’t too close to where Islamic extremists attacked on Sept. 11. In a statement, Sharif ElGamal, the president of Soho Properties, which owns 51 Park Place, said workers called the city and the police as soon as they discovered the landing gear. He said the company is cooperating with the city and the police to make sure the piece of equipment “is removed with care as quickly and effectively as possible.” The medical examiner’s office will complete a health and safety evaluation to determine whether to sift the soil around the buildings for possible human remains, police said. Patricia Riley, whose sister Lorraine Riley was killed in the Sept. 11 attacks, said the landing gear discovery was “very strange.” “Twelve years later we are

still finding remnants of the attack on our country,” she said. “... For years to come we’ll continue to find things that we didn’t see before. Hopefully they’ll serve as a reminder that we have to stay vigilant.” Outside the Islamic center building, known as Park51, a police officer stood next to the door on Friday and a police barricade was set up to contain the many journalists who had gathered to try to see the piece of the plane. The landing gear could not be seen from the sidewalk so commuters rushed by and looked quizzically at the gathering. The Park51 space, a former Burlington Coat factory, is a five-story, mildly rundown building. The piece of plane is wedged in an alley space between that building and 50 Murray St., which is a luxury loft rental building.

Proposal puts 60 dispensaries in the state Carribean courts • MARIJUANA Continued from page A1 said. “When I didn’t, it really bothered me.” Under a bill passed by the Illinois House earlier this month in a 61-57 vote, patients with “debilitating medical conditions” and a doctor’s prescription could apply for a license that would allow them or a caregiver to buy up to 2.5 grams of marijuana in a two-week period. Robinson thinks it’s a good first step, but he does have some concerns, particularly that the law maintains a zero-tolerance policy for those driving with any amount of marijuana in their system, even if they’re not “under the influence.” But state Rep. Jack Franks, D-Marengo, thinks it’s better to err on the side of caution and if changes need to be made, they can be addressed. The pilot program ends four years after it goes into effect. Medical marijuana has come before the Illinois House before. In 2011, Franks and state Rep. Mike Tryon, R-Crystal Lake, voted against the proposed medical marijuana bill. But with the restrictions laid out in this version – the

“I’m just concerned about marijuana getting into the hands of the wrong people, especially children.” David McSweeney, Illinois House Representative bill is touted as the most stringent in the country by its proponents – both Franks and Tryon decided to vote “yes.” Of the four representatives whose districts include parts of McHenry County, only state Rep. David McSweeney voted “no.” “I’m just concerned about marijuana getting into the hands of the wrong people, especially children,” McSweeney said, adding that the federal Food and Drug Administration has not approved it for medical purposes. Under the proposed bill, the marijuana would have to be bought from one of the 60 dispensaries geographically dispersed throughout the state. The state would track prescriptions in an effort to limit abuses, red-flagging doctors who seem to be prescribing a lot, Tryon said. Doctors also would have to have seen the patient at least twice in the previous year before they could write a prescription for marijuana. The bill also limits the

number of growers to 22, one per state police district. McHenry County is located in District 2, which also includes DeKalb, DuPage, Kane and Lake counties. Local governments wouldn’t be able to prevent dispensaries or growers from coming to their communities but could set “reasonable zoning ordinances or resolutions.” Some communities, including Lake in the Hills and Fox Lake, have put the issue on the radar for their planning and zoning commissions. No discussions or hearings have taken place yet in Lake in the Hills, Community Development Director Dan Olson said. The idea was to get the issue out there, let the community know and have people start thinking about it. If a bill is passed, communities would have to adjust their zoning ordinances and decide where these facilities would fit in, Olson said. “I never would have voted for a bill that would have re-created what they have in California,” Tryon said.

Unemployment percentage still high • ECONOMY Continued from page A1 in housing,” Guatieri says. “We are seeing significant housing-related consumer purchases in such areas as furniture.” GDP is the broadest gauge of the economy’s health. It measures the total output of goods and services produced in the United States, from haircuts and hamburgers to airplanes and automobiles. The government will provide two updated estimates of first-quarter growth based on more complete data. Whatever the revised data show, estimated first-quarter growth will likely remain far above the economy’s scant 0.4 percent growth rate in the October-December quarter. In a healthy economy, with an unemployment rate between 5 percent and 6 percent, GDP growth of 2.5 percent or 3 percent would be considered solid. But in today’s still-struggling recovery, with unemployment at 7.6 percent, the economy needs faster growth to generate enough jobs to quickly shrink unemployment. Since the Great Recession officially ended in June 2009, growth has remained weaker than usual after a severe downturn. In part, that’s because the recession followed the worst financial crisis since Great Depression. The economy expanded just 2.4 percent in 2010, 1.8 percent

At a glance Here’s where the United States ranks among some countries in its economic growth as a percentage:

7.7 China 6.2 Indonesia 4.1 India 2.5 United States 1.2 Great Britain 0.7 Germany 0.0 France - 2.4 Italy in 2011 and 2.2 percent in 2012. Consumers’ take-home pay has also fallen because President Barack Obama and Congress allowed a Social Security tax cut to expire. A person earning $50,000 a year has about $1,000 less to spend this year. A household with two high-paid workers has up to $4,500 less. Consumers’ take-home pay is crucial to the economy because their spending drives roughly 70 percent of growth. Americans appeared to shake off the tax increase at the start of the year. They spent more in January and February, powered by a stronger job market. But hiring slowed sharply in March. And consumers

spent less at retail businesses, a sign that many were starting to feel the effects of the Social Security tax increase. Economists expect spending to stay weak in the April-June quarter as consumers adjust to smaller paychecks. Three-fourths of that decline came from defense spending. The past two quarterly declines in defense spending – at a 22.1 percent annual pace in the fourth quarter and 11.5 percent in the first quarter – have been the sharpest such back-to-back drops since the Korean War was winding down in the 1950s. Many large developing countries are growing much faster than the United States. China’s economy expanded 7.7 percent in the first three months of the year compared with a year earlier – and that was a slowdown from its previous double-digit growth. Indonesia’s economy grew 6.2 percent in 2012, India’s 4.1 percent. But among developed countries, the United States is still performing relatively well. Most of Europe is stuck in a second year of recession. Germany’s economy grew just 0.7 percent in 2012. France’s didn’t grow at all. Italy’s shrank 2.4 percent. And in the January-March quarter, Britain grew at an annual rate of just 1.2 percent, less than half the estimated U.S. pace.

Public perception shifts on marijuana Support for the legalization of marijuana has been on the rise since the early 1990s when 17 percent of people said it should be legal, according to the Pew Research Center. In the latest survey, 52 percent of people said it should be legal. Next step The bill, known as House Bill 0001, was approved by the House in a 61-57 vote. It is currently in the Senate Assignments Committee where it will be assigned a committee. Both state senators Dan Duffy and Pam Althoff voted against the medical marijuana bill proposed in 2009. Althoff has not decided how she will vote if the bill comes before her, but said she is “inclined to consider it very seriously.” The latest version tries to address many of the concerns raised during debate over the last bill, she said. Duffy plans on voting against it because he thinks marijuana should be regulated like any other prescription drug and sold in pharmacies, not special dispensaries. To read the bill, go to ilga.gov and search “HB0001.”

system stalls lives By DAVID McFADDEN The Associated Press KINGSTON, Jamaica – Claudette Johnson still has a hard time sleeping at night a decade after her son was fatally shot in a confrontation with Jamaican police and 15 years after her taxi driver husband was murdered by gunmen. Year after year, both cases have collected dust in the island’s gridlocked court system, leaving her in limbo. Meanwhile, she’s grimly tracked the men she believes are responsible for the killings of her loved ones, even as witnesses have vanished and memories have grown murky. “Lord, it hurts. You can wait forever for justice here,” Johnson said in an outdoor Kingston market where she scrapes out a living selling secondhand clothing from a sunbaked wooden stall. Johnson’s exasperation with the sluggish pace of Caribbean justice reflects what many say is a regional crisis. While the Caribbean is

known to most visitors as a vacation paradise, with its palm trees and white sand beaches, the backlog in overburdened courts has soared as crime statistics show homicide rates nearly doubling in several countries since 1995. At the same time, underfunded and inefficient courts have failed to keep up with the punishing caseloads, stalling lives and even acting as a disincentive for foreign investment. Perhaps nowhere is the problem more marked than in Jamaica, which is struggling to whittle down a crushing number of old criminal cases. With even basic statistical data on the flow of cases lacking, most officials have long put the court backlog at over 400,000 on the island of 2.7 million people, although some justice officials now say the number is closer to 200,000. Whatever the full tally, authorities uniformly agree that the sprawling backlog is a big problem, with opposition leader and former Prime Minister Andrew Holness likening it to a “cancer in the core of the nation.”

Volunteers still needed for cleanup • FLOODING Continued from page A1 Illinois Department of Natural Resources estimates the Fox River could take up to two weeks to fall below flood stage, excluding additional rain. The county has handed out more than 157,900 sandbags to municipalities and townships to help combat the flooding, EMA Director David Christensen said. But while volunteers were needed during the flooding, Christensen told board members they will be needed again. “There’s going to be a huge need for volunteers to clean this mess up,” Christensen said. As of Friday morning, only one county road – River Road between Charles Miller and Lily Lake roads in Nunda Township – is still closed because of standing water, Division of Transportation Maintenance Superintendent Mark DeVries said. The department hopes to have the road reopened over the weekend. Ongoing work to add another two lanes of bridge span on the Charles Miller Road Bridge has been suspended because of the flooding. And several upstream residents with flooded properties are wondering whether the work has anything to do with it. Laurie Wilde lives about a mile upstream from the bridge in the Fair Oaks subdivision. The 18-year resident says this is the first time the

Work on Charles Miller Road delayed due to water McHENRY – High water levels for the Fox River pushed back work on Charles J. Miller Road that was expected to take place this week. Work could start Monday, April 29, but if water levels remain high, work could be delayed another week, according to a release from the engineering firm, H.R. Green. When the work begins, traffic delays, to occur between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., could last up to 10 days. The construction is part of a two-phase project that will widen the two-lane Charles

Miller Road to four lanes and construct a second two-lane bridge over the Fox River to create two lanes of traffic in each direction. Officials expect this phase of the two-part project to be completed by Oct. 15. Work began in November. For information and to sign up for updates on the the project, visit charlesmillerroad.com. Emails will be sent to those that sign up alerting them where and when construction activities and potential traffic delays will occur.

The county put out a news release Thursday in response to the calls they have received questioning whether the bridge work has caused upstream flooding. DeVries told board members the bridge’s plans conform to federal, state and local guidelines requiring that in-stream construction

projects, such as bridges, do not increase flood heights more than one-tenth of a foot for any flood up to a 100-yearflood event. “It’s engineered for a situation just like this,” DeVries said. Christensen said Friday afternoon that only about five or six municipal and township governments have reported their flood-related expenses to the EMA for an application for state reimbursement. The EMA needs the reports, from raw materials to fuel to overtime, by close of business Monday, he said.

Demand for baby food in China leads to shortage for Europe By KIRSTEN GRIESHABER The Associated Press BERLIN – Yong-Hee Kim still can’t believe that in a prosperous country like Germany, powdered baby formula would ever be rationed and that she would have to scour shops in the German capital to find the right brand for her 13-month-old son. But that’s what has happened since major retailers in Germany this year began limiting sales of leading brands of baby formula. Parents in Britain, the Netherlands and Hong Kong have faced similar restrictions. The reason for the sudden shortage is a quirk of globalization – one that illustrates the complexities of supply and demand in a wired world.

At a glance Chinese parents who have enough money have largely shunned local brands since a contaminated milk scandal in 2008 left six babies dead and another 300,000 sick. Parents thousands of miles away in China have been using the Internet or tapping friends and relatives in Europe to buy up stocks of high quality European-produced formula – often paying much higher prices than they would here. Chinese demand for foreign brands soared after drought in Australia and New Zealand cut supplies from China’s major sources of imported baby formula.

With Chinese consumers turning to sources abroad, major retail outlets in Germany, Britain, the Netherlands and Hong Kong have limited sales of several leading brands of baby formula. In Europe, parents have been stockpiling the milk powder at home, further intensifying the shortage. “They don’t sell more than three boxes of formula per store anymore. So my husband and I are checking out all those stores, running from A to B, to make sure we can get the right baby milk powder for our son,” Kim said as she watched her son at a playground in Berlin’s leafy Prenzlauer Berg neighborhood. “We even end up paying two, three or four euros more for a box,” she sighed. “It’s really annoying.”

Go green with train museum The Northwest Herald editorial board offers this week’s thumbs up and thumbs down: Thumbs up: To working toward going green. The Illinois Railway Museum wants to build a 5-acre renewable solar farm that would reduce its electrical costs and use the sunlight to completely power its demonstration railroad. If built, it would reduce the museum’s electricity costs by at least $65,000. Officials have started a fundraising drive to help meet the $1.2 million to cover the local costs of the $3.5 million it would cost for the proposed solar farm. We wish the museum luck in its endeavor. Thumbs down: To McHenry County’s jobless rate. Data released by the state this week showed McHenry County’s unemployment rate went up year over year in March, from 9.1 percent to 9.3 percent. Unemployment rates in Crystal Lake, Algonquin and Lake in the Hills also went up compared with a year ago. The news was better in McHenry, where the unemployment rate dipped slightly. Overall, however, March’s countywide unemployment rate was lower than February’s rate of 10.2 percent. Still, the number of people without work is too high. Thumbs up: To sandbag volunteers. The area’s recent flooding affected many local homeowners located near waterways. In Nunda Township, however, strangers worked together to help neighbors fight off rising waters. It represented teamwork, community and a group of people not afraid to take on a bit of hard labor to help out those who urgently needed assistance to keep water from filling their homes. Thumbs down: To DePaul theater professor Rachel Shtier for her shrill screed against the city of Chicago on the cover of the New York Times Book Review on Sunday. Shtier’s rant against the city where’s she’s lived – miserably apparently – for the past 13 years was disguised as a review of three different books about Chicago. Chicago certainly has its problems, which are well-documented, but it’s also a proud, world-class city undeserving of Shtier’s snarky piece that came across as nothing more than New York snobbery toward a Midwestern town that she’s too dreary to appreciate.

Better response to bird flu A new strain of bird flu has surfaced in China, and it has health officials alarmed. While the death toll has reached double digits, the real cause of concern is the fact that it was previously not known to affect humans. Health officials in China and elsewhere are closely monitoring hospitals and clinics, as well as the close contacts of confirmed cases. Surveillance is critical, not only of people, but also of poultry to trace the source of the outbreak and identify its vectors, as well as isolate the strain and prepare a vaccine. The new flu comes from the H7N9 virus, a variant that has long been in pigeons but has never been found in humans. Several had visited poultry markets before they got sick, but the actual source of the infection remains uncertain. Chinese experts believe that the virus originated in migratory birds that mixed with domestic fowl in China’s heavily populated Yangtze River delta. Many questions still swirl around the outbreak, not least of which is its extent. China seems to be responding quickly to the appearance of the disease, with health officials stepping up surveillance. The Japan Times

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Bible verse out of context To the Editor: One of the dangers of taking a single Bible verse out of context is that the reader is taken down a path that the author did not intend. In a letter published April 12, Andleeb Ahmed cites Matt. 15:24 as proof that Jesus came to reach the lost people of Israel and had to travel the world to complete this mission. Jesus’ mission was not only for the Jews. See Luke 2:32. After the baby Jesus is presented at the temple, Simeon says of him, “A light for revelation to the Gentiles and for glory to your people Israel.” The “sheep not of this fold” that Ahmed cites from John 10:15-16 are not Jews in other lands, but the Gentiles who had been separated from God. As a Gentile, I happily am a dog taking the crumbs from the Master’s table. (Matt. 15:27) Jesus’ mission was not simply to bring about political change or a new way of teaching. Indeed, His death on the cross was not a failure, as Ahmed postulates, but His greatest triumph. Since the time of the Exodus from Egypt, Israel celebrated the Passover every year to remember God’s deliverance from slavery. Jesus came to free all His people from slavery to sin and to be the

perfect sacrifice. “For Christ our Passover lamb has been sacrificed. Let us therefore, celebrate the festival, not with the old leaven (sin) but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.” (1 Cor. 5:7-8) Brian J. Crow Lake in the Hills

Always a light To the Editor: “Love, live but one moment to speak to me once,” Mary Todd Lincoln cried over her husband, President Abraham Lincoln, as he lay dying in bed. On April 15, 1865, while watching a play, President Lincoln was shot from behind. I truly feel bad for Mary. She was hysterical, and I don’t blame her. Reading this made me think openly to my dear wife, Mary. “Don’t be hysterical for me.” She replied, “Don’t worry, I will.” I’d rather lose love in death than in life because death is not really the end. If you lose in divorce, then you feel like you failed. For Mrs. Lincoln, I would tell her as the minister once told Mr. Lincoln. “Mr. Lincoln is not really gone. He just went to stay with Willie and the others.” He did his duty. The country is

For the past several weeks, the murder trial of Kermit Gosnell has been going in Philadelphia. Gosnell is charged with capital murder for allegedly killing seven babies who prosecutors say were delivered alive as part of a lateterm abortion procedure. The jurors were shown a picture of the remains babies stored in cat food containers in a freezer. He is also charged with thirddegree murder of a patient.

Smart planning builds a strong future for McHenry Co. College McHenry County College is in the midst of revising and developing our Strategic Plan – 2013-2018. A strategic plan is needed to create renewed awareness and refocus the college community on the importance of planning, to prioritize initiatives, and to align our efforts and our resources. The strategic plan for 2013-2018 will implement the college’s mission by giving broad direction and providing the overarching goals that will keep the institution focused. Decisions to dedicate college resources are not made in isolation. Such decisions are made that will further implement the college’s Educational Master Plan, the Facility Master Plan, the Infrastructure Deferred Maintenance Report, and the Sustainability Strategic Plan. Decisions also are driven by these ongoing planning efforts, which align with needs identified by county and nationwide research. A cross-representative team from all areas of the institution formed a strategic planning committee last fall and focused on soliciting ideas,

suggestions, history and data shared by parties inside and outside of the college. This collective content will inform the final strategic plan and establish an aligned direction for all college departments that move the college toward meeting our mission: “Learning is our focus. Student Success is our Goal.” The committee reviewed the 2012 McHenry County Labor Report, the Environmental Scan conducted by Northern Illinois University’s Center for Governmental Studies, student focus groups and survey results, the above master plans, and employee input as well as other relevant research to help establish a clear direction and prioritize goals in order the make strategic and informed decisions. Based on the research gathered, there are some primary areas on which the college will focus in its planning in order to respond to the needs identified. They include health careers; manufacturing (robotics, engineering, industrial maintenance); technology; services to veterans; diverse populations; returning adult students; and

The college already has been working in a variety of ways with manufacturing companies, including its newest initiative to incorporate robotics into the curriculum. We recently received a grant from the U.S. Department of Labor for more than $500,000 to train out-ofwork individuals and veterans in manufacturing and robotics. This builds on the partnerships we have with many area manufacturers with which we share space and equipment to train their employees. Across all programs, MCC’s strategic goals will include the ability to implement courses quickly in order to support community members and businesses in training those who desire a career and need either full degrees, certification or some level of skill development.

have been discussions at the college regarding space and where our new programming will find a home, particularly manufacturing. Over the past few weeks, we have examined off-campus solutions and on-campus solutions. The off-campus solution requires an initial investment and ongoing costs. Our on-campus solutions will require the displacement and reconfiguration of one of our fine arts programs – theatre. The upfront investment cost in providing new space for the displaced theatre program will see a five-year return investment, including revenues from the additional classes offered, that will cover over 75 percent of these costs. The board heard an update on these options at the April board meeting and might make a decision as early as May. Welcoming new ideas: MCC continues to share its story of how we impact the lives of McHenry County residents. Over the next few months, we will be holding community forums where we will share our story and hear what the community says. Go to www.mchenry.edu/forum to

find the time and place for the forum in your community.

Thanking those who provide leadership and support: As our board transitions, I would like to thank the outgoing trustees for their years of service to the college. Dennis Adams worked hard on the finance and branding committees. Carol Larson’s 24 years saw her work hard on implementing the needed expansion of college spaces. Barbara Walters focused on fiscal responsibility over her 30 years and saw the implementation of new academic programs. Paola Rueda, our student trustee, was a strong voice for student views. I welcome and congratulate the new trustees – Chris Jenner, Molly Walsh and Tom Wilbeck – and student trustee Michele Lambert. I look forward to the new and fresh ideas they will bring through open dialogue and collaboration, focused on achieving the mission of the college. • Vicky Smith is president of McHenry County College.

Tollway presses Marengo City officials have six months to present interchange design By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com MARENGO – The Illinois Tollway Authority gave Marengo officials the next six months to present an initial interchange design as the agency prepares to retool area bridges for its Interstate 90 widening project. Marengo must have its boundaries extended along Route 23 to I-90 before that point to have the “standing” to develop the preliminary designs, City

Manager Gary Boden said. In the face of resistance, city officials have been trying all year to annex nearly 2,400 acres southwest of its borders to reach I-90 and begin formal talks with the Tollway about financing a new interchange intended to spur future development in the area. “The fact of the matter is until we are annexed up to the interstate, we can’t take a formal lead,” Boden said. The city’s annexation plan cuts through Riley Township, whose offi-

cials routinely have criticized Marengo for acting too fast and disregarding proper planning in seeking to add the extra acreage. But Boden said Marengo will have its boundaries extended to I-90 in “the next several months” to complete time-intensive soil studies along I-90 that are needed for a preliminary interchange design. Tollway spokeswoman Jan Kemp said the agency already has begun planning to rebuild numerous bridg-

Former County Board member faces action against law license By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com

Vincent Herf, 9, a third-grader from Saint Mary Catholic School of Woodstock, raises his hand during a tour Friday of the Berry Plastics building in Woodstock. The students took the tour to learn about how companies recycle, reduce and reuse.

Third-graders watch recycling firsthand By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – McHenry County third-graders saw recycling up close Friday thanks to an Earth Day lesson from Berry Plastics. For more than 10 years, Berry Plastics has been inviting schools to tour its plant around Earth Day to see real-world examples of how recycling works. “We’re bringing the kids out so they can experience [recycling] firsthand and hopefully learn something,” said John Weibert, plant man-

ager at Berry Plastics. “For the environment, it’s important that we all take care of the Earth.” Dean Street Elementary School and St. Mary Catholic School, both from Woodstock, toured the plant and learned about Berry’s recycling efforts. The third-graders learned how the plant recycles corrugate, plastic and hydraulic oil, and got to watch discarded materials as they were ground up and prepared for reuse. “A lot of people learn by hands on,” Weibert said. “Seeing, observing. This gives the kids a real-life

situation where they can see things actually occurring versus just having to imagine it in their own minds.” Berry Plastics makes an array of products from buckets to building products, and grinds up any excess or defective parts to be used again, Weibert said. “It’s important [for the students] to learn about saving the Earth,” said Carol Landers, third-grade teacher at St. Mary. “And they need to know about recycling and reusing and all those different things. It also fit into our social studies unit about factories and communities.”

McHenry residents battle wall of water By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Pauline Applegate’s home easily could be mistaken for a houseboat. Only 3 feet of muddy ground and a wall of sandbags separate her home from the encroaching Fox River. Her home, on Russet Drive in McHenry, is one of more than 300 homes that have been affected by last week’s heavy rainstorms. “It’s been a very difficult time,” she said. “I’ve never seen water like this.” Applegate estimates that 5,000 sandbags separate her home from the wall of water. The bags, weighing more than 70 pounds each, are stacked eight high for at least 25 yards. “One day I was so tired I couldn’t carry another sandbag,” she said. “But you have to do what you have to do to save your house.” Applegate said the week-and-ahalf-long effort has been overwhelming, but she credits Nunda Township and many volunteers for saving her home. “We would never have been able to do this without the township,” she said. “There’s no way. They worked around the clock.” But Applegate’s home could be considered one of the lucky ones. “It’s my understanding that certain people had to be evacuated,” said Mary Ann O’Hara, who lives a few houses down from Applegate. “We saw a flurry of moving trucks.” O’Hara’s house is one of the new-

The Illinois Department of Natural Resources anticipates the Fox River could take up to two weeks to return to below flood stage levels, assuming there is no additional rainfall.

When water levels do recede, Applegate and others will be left with the daunting task of cleaning up after one of the worst floods in 100 years. “The cleanup … I can’t imagine it. The sandbags are going to be so heavy because they’re wet,” Applegate said. “My neighbor and I are thinking about having a barbecue to get people to come back and help clean up.”

A panel concluded that attorney and former McHenry County Board member Robert Bless engaged in professional misconduct relating to a 2010 complaint against his law license. But what rules the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission Hearing Board says Bless broke, and what sanctions it recommends, will not be known until it releases its full report in the coming months. The hearing board made its ruling Tuesday, a day after the hearing into the complaint concluded, said James Grogan, ARDC deputy administrator and chief counsel. The four-count August 2010 complaint filed by ARDC Administrator Jerome Larkin alleges that Bless i n a p p r o p r i a t e l y Robert Bless had a sexual relationship with a client, borrowed money from her, and entered business deals with her. It also alleges that Bless tried to influence her as a witness and tried to mislead ARDC investigators. Bless, of Fox River Grove, could not be reached Friday for comment. The complaint alleges that Bless’ law firm in August 2005 agreed to represent Kathleen Scott, who was suing several parties over a 2003 work accident that killed her husband. Bless assumed responsibility for the case in January 2006. Bless began having a relationship with Scott later that fall that continued through his representation, according to the complaint, which also alleges that Bless borrowed at least $124,727 from Scott between 2007 and 2009. Bless was elected as a Republican in 2008 to the County Board to represent District 1, which covers part of McHenry County’s heavily populated southeast corner. He lost his 2012 re-election bid – the four open seats that went to three other Republicans and a Democrat. The hearing board’s full report and recommendations will go to the Illinois Supreme Court, which is the licensing authority for lawyers. Sanctions range from censure to disbarment. Bless has had no previous action taken against his law license, which he received in May 2004, according to state records. The ARDC’s action is not the only professional problem that Bless faces. Bless, a Cook County sheriff’s deputy, was stripped of his police powers and has been on administrative duty since at least last year, pending a case before the sheriff’s office merit board.

nancing plan to the Tollway. The local portion covered 50 percent of the project costs, with Huntley footing about $5.4 million of the bill. “The key is the local share,” Huntley Village Manager Dave Johnson said. “It gives you more credibility when you go meet with the Tollway.” Likewise, Marengo would start to intensify discussions on financing an interchange at Route 23 with the likes of McHenry and DeKalb counties, once the city’s borders are extended to I-90, Boden said. McHenry County Board Chairwoman Tina Hill said the county has yet to discuss financing a Route 23 interchange. The County Board is “waiting and seeing” how Marengo advances the project before County Board members start debating financial proposals in committee, she said. “We have no position on this. It hasn’t been discussed at any level. It’s a decision that is left up to Marengo,” Hill said. “It’s in their ballpark now. We are waiting on Marengo.”

TRI COUNTY COINS & COLLECTIBLES

The Tollway has just begun informally talking with Marengo, McHenry and DeKalb counties, and the state transportation department about a new interchange at Route 23 and I-90, Kemp said. The Tollway has made more than $100 million available to communities along I-90 for new interchange construction, as part of the Tollway’s widening project, Kemp said. The agency already has fielded requests from more than a half-dozen communities, which like Marengo are competing for limited Tollway construction funds. The preliminary interchange design would be an early step in a complex, and often lengthy, planning process before the Tollway endorses funding for a new interchange. It took Huntley nearly a decade of planning before the Tollway officially endorsed funding for the $61 million interchange at Route 47 and I-90 that now is being constructed. Huntley’s approach to the project is regarded as the model for any Illinois community wanting to build an interchange with the Tollway. Village officials gathered commitments from local governments, including McHenry and Kane counties, before presenting its fi-

The Times They Are a-Changin’

■ AUTUMN SIEGMEIER, PLANITNORTHWEST.COM

What happens when the planner of the relationship lets the non-planner take care of the plans? By chance, this happened with the Golfer in My Life and me last weekend. I had mentioned a few weeks ago that we were going to see Bob Dylan; we both love his music. That is how the Golfer knew to ask me out for the ﬁrst time. Son was taking golf lessons from him and they had gone out for pizza to celebrate Son’s 9th birthday. The Golfer was listening to Dylan’s “Time Out of Mind” cd in the car and Son recognized the music and said “my mom likes Bob Dylan, too.” I like to think the Golfer had been trying to get up the courage to ask me out and this ﬁnally pushed him to do it. A girl that was a Bob fan was way too good to let get away!

APRIL 27 “THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE” HUNTLEY HIGH SCHOOL, HUNTLEY This hilarious tale of overachievers’ angst chronicles the experiences of six adolescent outsiders vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime. Tickets are $5. Performances at 3 and 7 p.m.

APRIL 28 MCC CHORUS AND CONCERT BAND SPRING CONCERT MCHENRY COUNTY COLLEGE, CRYSTAL LAKE

Anyways, this wasn’t a conscious decision on my part to not buy the tickets or make the hotel reservations; I didn’t think “I always take care of all the details. It’s his turn this time.” Instead it just kind of happened that way. On the day the tickets went on sale, I had Pilates and then a shopping trip with my mom so the Golfer said he would take care of it. If I had been buying the tickets, I would have researched the venue, looked at the seating chart, compared the various price levels and promptly purchased them right at 10 a.m . I think the Golfer just logged on in the afternoon, bought 2 tickets in his price range and called it done. He had the same casual attitude towards the hotel room. Again,

This performance will include such selections as “Creation” by William Billings, “Der Abend (Evening)” by Johannes Brahms, and “Bullocky-O” a traditional Australian Folk Song arranged by Graeme Morton, “Blessed Are They” by Johannes Brahms and “Fantasy in Earth Tones” by James Mobberley. The concerts are free and open to the public. Performance starts at 3 p.m.

mchenry.edu/events/ Please note; we try to be as accurate as possible with our events but things are subject to change without notice. Check the listing and confirm before heading to an event.

I would have looked at the various options, compared both price and location to the concert venue, making sure to book one that would earn us rewards points. For the Golfer, I think it was just a point and click decision. He did select a hotel that was in our rewards program, but I think we drove past at least three other Marriott options on our to the concert. By the time we piled in the car, I was strictly a passenger on this trip and thoroughly enjoying my lack of responsibilities. I even let our dining decisions fall to him. I had requested we stop for a Coke; he wanted to wait until we crossed into Indiana. Not a problem. Usually I would have found out the best pizza place or a local favorite for us to stop at after the concert. The Golfer was happy to know that venue was a minor league hockey arena so they would have concessions. Yes, we had a dinner of hot dogs and popcorn. He even treated me to a trip to the vending machine at the hotel when we got back that night. In the morning, we were up, on the road and home by 10 a.m. The Golfer wanted to golf that afternoon. Again, not a problem; I had grocery shopping to get done. So what happened when the planner din’t make the plans? Everything worked out ﬁne. Even better than ﬁne; the Golfer and I had a great time! And Bob sounded amazing, even in a hockey rink. Have a good weekend! Autumn

MINI-REVIEWS & LOCAL SHOWTIMES OF CURRENT MOVIES

Saturday, April 27, 2013 • Page B7 LOCAL SHOWTIMES

ON SCREEN NOW

“Admission” HHH STARRING: Tina Fey, Paul Rudd, Lily Tomlin, Nat Wolff PLOT: A tightly wound Princeton University admissions officer (Fey) visits a rustic alternative high school run by Rudd. He introduces her to the school’s top student (Wolff), who wants to attend Princeton. Rudd then drops the bombshell that the boy is the son Fey gave up for adoption 17 years earlier. RATING: PG-13 for language and some sexual material TIME: 1 hour, 57 minutes VERDICT: Despite the advertising selling this as a romantic comedy, it is as much a drama as a comedy with an ending as bitter as it is sweet. The focus is not so much on the romance between Fey and Rudd as it is on Fey’s midlife crisis and the conflict with her feminist mother played by Lily Tomlin. Director Paul Weitz waits a long while before allowing the story to find its voice as a drama, but Fey and Rudd are likeable and they make the project work despite its flaws. – Jeffrey Westhoff,

Northwest Herald

“The Call” H½ STARRING: Halle Berry, Evie Thompson, Abigail Breslin PLOT: When veteran 911 operator Jordan Turner receives a call from a girl who has just been abducted, she soon realizes that she must confront a killer from her past in order to save the girl’s life. RATING: R for violence, disturbing content and some language TIME: 1 hour, 35 minutes VERDICT: “The Call” dials up a shallow thrill ride, but one efficiently peppered with your typical “don’t go in there!” moments. But what once was usual for Hollywood – reliable, popcorn-eating genre frights – isn’t so much anymore. “The Call” is a rudimentary, almost old-fashioned 90-minute escape that manages to achieve its low ambitions. – Jake

Coyle, The Associated Press

“The Croods” HH½ STARRING: The voices of Nicolas Cage, Ryan Reynolds, Emma Stone and Catherine Keener PLOT: The world’s first prehistoric family goes on a road trip to an uncharted and fantastic world. RATING: PG for some scary action TIME: 1 hour, 32 minutes VERDICT: Cavemen – they’re just like us! – or so “The Croods” seems to be saying with its familiar mix of generational clashes, coming-of-age milestones and generally relatable laughs. The animated adventure features a strong, star-studded cast and dazzles visually in wondrously colorful, vibrant 3-D, but the script doesn’t pop off the screen quite so effectively. The simplistic message here is: Trying new things is good. It’s a useful notion for kids in the crowd to chew on, but their older companions may be longing for something more substantive. Still, “The Croods” is both brisk and beautiful, and should be sufficiently entertaining for family audiences for whom few such options exist these days. And it might be especially resonant with young female viewers, with a strong, resourceful teenage girl at its center named Eep (voiced by Emma Stone in her usual charming rasp). It’s the prehistoric era, and while the rest of Eep’s family prefers the comforting safety of hiding fearfully inside a cave, with only sporadic outings for group hunts, she longs to see what’s outside those stone walls. Her dad, Grug (Cage), is especially protective, neurotically worrying about every possible unknown and urging the same sort of apprehension in everyone else. But everything changes when Eep escapes and meets a guy named Guy (Reynolds). – Christy Lemire,

The Associated Press

“Evil Dead” HHH STARRING: Jane Levy, Shiloh Fernandez, Jessica Lucas PLOT: Five friends head to a remote cabin, where the discovery of a Book of the Dead leads them to unwittingly summon up demons living in the nearby woods. The evil presence possesses them until only one is left to fight for survival. RATING: R for strong bloody violence and gore, some sexual content and language TIME: 1 hour, 31 minutes VERDICT: True to the essence of its predecessor but reinventing some particulars (precedent is set by Raimi’s “Evil Dead II,” which practically remade the story from scratch), this film retains the five-youths-in-a-cabin premise, but renames the characters and changes some relationships to ensure we don’t expect a beat-by-beat remake. That’s good news for Shiloh Fernandez, who has none of the humor or panache of Campbell – Fernandez’s

RATINGS

HHHH - Excellent HHH - Recommended HH - Not recommended H - Awful David fills the slot of Campbell’s Ash, in that he’s the brother of the first young woman to be possessed by evil forces (Jane Levy’s Mia), but David is, wisely, never offered as an Ash-like hero. And while the original had a conventional slasher-flick setup – a co-ed spring break trip to the woods – this one offers more justification for the remote setting and the characters’ reluctance to leave when things start to go south. Pucci is this “Evil Dead’s” most charismatic cast member, but Alvarez and his co-writer Rodo Sayagues give him only one wisecrack in the whole film. Jokes are almost nonexistent here; Alvarez comes closest to trying to make us laugh (and it works) when his camera casually shows us a prop – a shotgun, a chain saw – whose importance we remember from Raimi’s trilogy. Instead, he and his crack effects team work to make our stomachs turn. From the initial attack on Mia – the infamous “tree rape” scene – to the literal rainstorm of blood that accompanies the climax, “Evil Dead” delivers satisfyingly disgusting effects that serve an ever-accelerating action pace. – John DeFore, The

Hollywood Reporter

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

Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter

“42” HHH STARRING: Chadwick Boseman, Harrison Ford, Christopher Meloni, Nicole Beharie PLOT: Jackie Robinson (Boseman) breaks the race barrier in Major League baseball when general manger Branch Rickey (Ford) puts him on the Brooklyn Dodgers’ roster. Robinson endures racism from the stands and in his own clubhouse during his historic rookie season. RATING: PG-13 for thematic elements including language TIME: 2 hours, 1 minute VERDICT: Writer-director Brian Helgeland (who won an Oscar for his “L.A. Confidential” script) tells Jackie Robinson’s incredible story in a fast-paced and entertaining style, even if Helgeland’s history lessons are aimed at a middle-school level. Adults may appreciate the sentiment but get antsy waiting for material pitched at them. Screen newcomer Boseman is phenomenal as Robinson, capturing the ballplayer’s tortured soul as well as his prowess on the field. Ford turns himself into a character actor and clearly enjoys himself, even though he does ham it up a bit. Worth seeing, but it wears its nobility too conspicuously. – Jeffrey Westhoff,

Northwest Herald

“G.I. Joe: Retaliation” H½ STARRING: Dwayne Johnson, D.J. Cotrona, Adrianne Palicki, Channing Tatum PLOT: After the G.I. Joe team is betrayed and ambushed on a mission to Pakistan, the three survivors (Johnson, Cotrona and Palicki) vow to find the Cobra villains responsible and stop their plan for world domination. RATING: PG-13 for intense sequences of combat violence, brief sensuality, language and martial arts action TIME: 1 hour, 39 minutes VERDICT: “Retaliation” is a sequel that doesn’t want to be a sequel. It jettisons the original movie’s comic book sensibilities and abandons almost its entire cast but brings back its star (Tatum) only to kill him off in the first act. With its sometimes brutal tone, the sequel basically transitions the concept of G.I. Joe from a team of military heroes to another action franchise for Johnson, who might as well go back to calling himself The Rock. One other Joe, the silent ninja Snake Eyes (Ray Park) does return in a convoluted subplot that plays like another, slightly better, movie. Near the end the villains destroy a major city in a show of force, and it is appalling that none of the good guys bats an eye over what would rank as one of the greatest disasters in world history. Apparently, if it happens in a country that isn’t America, it doesn’t count. – Jeffrey Westhoff,

Northwest Herald

“A Good Day To Die Hard” H STARRING: Bruce Willis, Jai Courtney, Sebastian Koch and Mary Elizabeth Winstead PLOT: John McClane travels to Russia to help out his seemingly wayward son, Jack, only to discover Jack is a CIA operative working to prevent a nuclear-weapons heist, causing the father and son to team up against underworld forces. RATING: R for violence and language TIME: 1 hour, 37 minutes VERDICT: It’s supposed to be a parody of itself, right? That’s the only way to explain this ridiculously over-thetop, repetitively numbing fifth film in the “Die Hard” franchise. John McClane used to be a cowboy. Now, he’s a cartoon character – specifically, Wile E. Coyote, given how many times he should be seriously injured and/or killed in this movie. The most he suffers is a scratch here and there, and then he’s ready to pop back up again with a bemused twinkle in his eye and a wry quip. Part of the charm of this careerdefining Bruce Willis’ character was the regular-guy, Reagan-era resourcefulness he represented; now, he’s weirdly superhuman. But as charismatic as Willis ordinarily is, even he can’t fool us into thinking he’s enjoying himself this time. “A Good Day to Die Hard” is pointless and joyless, a barrage of noise and chaos, an onslaught of destruction without the slightest mention of consequence. Director John Moore mistakes shaky-cam and dizzying zooms for artistic finesse in his action sequences. But the most obnoxious element of all may be the father-son feel-goodery that occurs in the midst of all this madness. You see, Willis’ unstoppable New York cop has traveled to Moscow to track down his bitter, estranged son, Jack (Jai Courtney), whom he believes to be in criminal trouble. Jack is actually a spy working undercover to protect a government whistleblower (Sebastian Koch), and dad has arrived just in time to ruin his mission. Now they must work together – and bond. – Christy Lemire,

The Associated Press

“The Host” H½ STARRING: Saoirse Ronan, Diane Kruger, William Hurt, Jake Abel PLOT: When an unseen enemy threatens mankind by taking over their bodies and erasing their memories, Melanie will risk everything to protect the people she cares most about, proving that love can conquer all in a dangerous new world. RATING: PG-13 for sensuality and some violence TIME: 2 hours, 1 minute VERDICT: Judging solely by the film adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s 2008 novel “The Host,” the “Twilight” author’s commitment to the love triangle is inviolable. This sci-fi love story has way more Harlequin Romance in its DNA than Harlan Ellison. It’s a mushy and unsuspenseful melodrama. Like the Edward-Bella-Jacob triangle that anchored the “Twilight” books and movies, “The Host” centers on a teenage girl (Ronan) who’s torn between two lovers. Like Bella, she’s of two minds. Only this time, it’s literal. Rather than offering any “Invasion of the Body Snatchers”-style thrills,

“The Host” wastes most of its two hours on high-school-caliber drama. “You’re angry when I kiss a man you do love,” Wanda whines to Melanie, after smooching with both Jared and Ian, “and you’re angry when I kiss a man you don’t. It’s very confusing.” Writer-director Andrew Niccol (“In Time,” “Gattaca”) is usually better than this. But I don’t blame him. His body has been taken over by Meyer, whose monomaniacal focus on the supernatural menage a trois is guided by her own alien overlords: the teenage girls who buy her books by the millions. – Michael O’Sullivan,

The Associated Press

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

west Herald

“Olympus Has Fallen” HH STARRING: Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart, Morgan Freeman and Angela Bassett PLOT: Disgraced former presidential guard Mike Banning finds himself trapped inside the White House in the wake of a terrorist attack. Using his inside knowledge, Banning works with national security to rescue the president from his kidnappers. RATING: R for strong violence and language throughout TIME: 2 hours VERDICT: The first of two similarly themed action dramas set for this year (“White House Down” arrives in June), “Olympus Has Fallen” will put to the test the question of whether American audiences are ready, 12 years after 9-11, to watch, strictly as disposable popcorn entertainment, a film in which the United States and some of its most prominent landmarks are devastated by foreign terrorists. The answer almost undoubtedly will be yes, as the tough-guy former agent played by Butler gets to kick a whole lot of butt while trying to rescue the president. Although this is the sort of film in which the fate of the world hinges, when all is said and done, on the outcome of a one-on-one martial arts contest, director Antoine Fuqua’s notably bloody child of Die Hard still generates a fair amount of tension and produces the kind of nationalistic outrage that rockribbed Americans will feel in their guts. Foreign revenue should be hefty as well, especially in countries where many viewers will get a thrill watching Washington get the sort of treatment usually reserved for places like Baghdad and Kabul.

– Todd McCarthy, The Hollywood Reporter

“Oz the Great and Powerful” HHH STARRING: James Franco, Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz PLOT: A tornado drops a two-bit carnival magician (Franco) into an enchanted land where he is mistaken for a wizard and thrust into a power struggle among three witches (Williams, Kunis, Weisz). RATING: PG for brief mild language and sequences of action and scary images TIME: 2 hours, 10 minutes VERDICT: Sam Raimi directs this reverent prequel to 1939’s “The Wizard of Oz” with his usual verve and visual dynamism. From its opening frame, it joins the handful of live-action films worth seeing in 3-D. The first half of the story is superior, particularly when the wizard gains a

Northwest Herald

“Pain & Gain” HH STARRING: Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson, Anthony Mackie, Tony Shalhoub PLOT: Three Miami bodybuilders (Wahlberg, Johnson and Mackie) with low IQs and lower scruples kidnap a millionaire sub shop owner (Shalhoub) and plan to steal his money and property. When they fail to kill him, things spin terribly out of control. RATING: R for bloody violence, crude sexual content, nudity, language throughout and drug use TIME: 2 hours, 10 minutes VERDICT: After nearly 20 years of blockbuster budgets, giant robots, islands full of clones and wall-towall visual effects, Michael Bay makes a deliberate attempt to return to the low-budget, low-tech days of his first (and best) movie, “Bad Boys.” He may have cut the budget, but the excesses of his crass views and boorish humor remain. Nearly every character is treated as an object of ridicule, the victims more so than the criminals. The true story is so twisted that Bay can’t screw it up completely, and Johnson gives a nuanced comic performance amid the bedlam. –

Jeffrey Westhoff

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

Teenager’s dating game plan Right words give doctors clues begins with proving maturity Dear Abby: I am a 13-yearold girl, and my parents won’t let me date. I believe I am mature for my age and won’t do anything foolish. I don’t know why my parents are being like this. Please give me some advice on how to persuade them. – Really Ready In New Hampshire Dear Really Ready: Although you think you are ready to start dating, your parents will have to make the ultimate decision on when you enter the “dating game.” Their decision most likely will be based on whether you have demonstrated the beginnings of emotional maturity. Here’s how: You need to have proven to them you can handle responsibility, carry out school assignments and chores, be honest with them and keep your word. It also will depend upon whether they know the boy in question, and whether HE is responsible enough to be trusted with their most precious possession, which is you. Dear Abby: I have been married for 27 years to a man who is a church pastor. We have had to move every six to eight years, partly because he was repeatedly unfaithful. We have gone through his alcoholism, gambling and womanizing, and my two suicide attempts. We have been trying to work things out, but I suspect he’s back to his old

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips ways. I work part time but haven’t been able to find a full-time job after our most recent move, so I am financially dependent on him. I have two adult children who don’t live near me. Most of the people I know are through the church, and they are all great supporters of my husband. I feel trapped, and I don’t know how to fix my life at this point. Have you any suggestions? – Trapped On The

East Coast Dear Trapped: You will have to do it in stages. The first should be to talk with a licensed therapist who is not associated with the church. It will help you to clarify your thinking and become more emotionally stabilized. Next, continue looking for full-time employment. If necessary, start by volunteering. It will help to widen your circle of acquaintances and perhaps lead to a job. Then, once you are feeling better about yourself, you will be better able to decide what to do about your unhappy marriage. Dear Abby: After being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis last year, I moved 900 miles from home. Shortly after the

move, my dog had to be put to sleep. Because of all the stress, my M.S. flared up and I was admitted to the hospital. After my third day there, I was lonely, so I went to the gift shop (the Pink Smock) and bought myself some pretty flowers and knick-knacks as a pick-me-up. While I was paying for them, the ladies behind the counter asked me if I needed a card for the flowers. I explained I was buying them for myself because I was alone. After I returned to my room, about an hour later more flowers arrived. I thought my mom had sent them to me from afar. The card read: “Feel Better Soon! From the Ladies at the Pink Smock.” Abby, that has to be the most thoughtful thing a stranger has ever done for me, and I wanted to share it. I am so touched. – Rachel In

Sanford, N.C. Dear Rachel: Your letter is an example of what strong medicine an act of kindness can be. I don’t know which hospital the Pink Smock is in, but whoever runs it should know what an asset those caring women in the gift shop are. Kudos to them, and I hope you are doing much better now.

Dear Dr. K: My neck hurts, but my doctor hasn’t been able to figure out why. I think if I had the words to better describe my pain, it might give him the clues he needs. Can you help? Dear Reader: Many of my patients have trouble describing their discomfort beyond telling me “it hurts.” Even a slightly more specific description can help me identify – or exclude – a particular diagnosis. To better describe your neck pain, start with the following questions. Be prepared to answer them next time you see your doctor: • How severe is the pain? On a scale of 1 (least pain) to 10 (most pain), how bad is it? • If the pain changes with different movements, how bad is it at its least painful, and how bad is it at its most painful? • What movements of the head, neck, shoulders or back make the pain better, and what movements make it worse? • Are your neck and shoulders stiff? Does it seem like more work than usual to move them? • How would you describe the pain? Is it an ache, is it sharp, is it just in one spot

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff

or does it travel (for example, into your arm)? • Do you feel pain only when you turn your head, or does the pain get worse when you turn your head? • Along with the pain, do you have any other symptoms? For example, is your arm or hand weak? Neck pain can vary a great deal based on what’s causing it. Use the following descriptions to help explain your symptoms: • Muscle pain causes aching or sore neck and shoulder muscles. Muscles may develop hard knots that are sore to the touch. • A muscle spasm is a sudden, powerful contraction of neck muscles. The muscle usually feels painful, tight or knotted, and may be temporarily difficult to move. • Neck-related headache is usually felt in the back of the head and upper neck. It is typically dull or aching, rather than sharp. It is often accompanied by stiffness and tenderness of neck muscles.

• The facet joints are where two spine bones (vertebrae) contact each other. Often described as deep, sharp or aching, facet joint pain typically worsens if you lean your head toward the affected side. It may radiate to your shoulder or upper back. • Nerve pain may be sharp, fleeting, severe, or accompanied by pins and needles. The pain may shoot down your arm or into your hand. Also tell your doctor about your nonpain symptoms: • Stiffness, tightness and rigidity in the muscles. Bending or moving your neck may be difficult or cause sharp pain. • Limited range of motion. This is evident in a reduced ability to flex and extend your neck and bend or rotate your head from side to side. The more specific you can be about your neck pain, the more your doctor can help you.

Restauranteur Never Stops Learning By Elizabeth Harmon Spending half of his life in the restaurant industry has taught Niko Kanakaris valuable lessons. “You’ve got love people, talking to them, serving them and making them happy. And you’ve got to love food,” said Kanakaris, operator of Niko’s Lodge in Algonquin and Niko’s Red Mill Tavern in Woodstock. A Huntley resident since the age of 15, Kanakaris grew up in a family of restaurateurs. “My family operated restaurants in the sixties, and when we moved out here, my parents opened Papa G’s restaurant, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner,” he said. As a teen and young adult, Kanakaris worked alongside his father George at Papa G’s. After graduating from Jacobs High School, Kanakaris attended McHenry County College, then at 23, purchased his first restaurant, located on Route 72 in Hampshire. “It was an existing restaurant serving steaks, seafood and pasta. It had been around for twenty years and the owners were ready to sell it. I saw it’s potential and was ready to make the move,” he said. The restaurant needed significant remodeling, but Kanakaris’ investment paid off, and breathed new life into the business, which he named the Red Ox, in honor of the Blue

Ox, an Elgin restaurant his family owned in the 1970s. In charge of his own restaurant, Kanakaris followed his dad’s example. “I cooked, cleaned, greeted customers, and mopped floors. My dad was always very hands on and I learned that when you’re very hands on, your employees respect you more,” he said.” His success at the Red Ox set him on a path he would follow for the next fifteen years; purchasing struggling restaurants, remodeling and reviving them, then selling to a new owner and beginning the process all over again. “It was a lot of work and very challenging, but it was fun at the same time,” he said. But running multiple restaurants didn’t leave time for much else, and after marrying and becoming a father, Kanakaris wanted more time for his family, and also to bring a more personal touch to his businesses. “When I’m in the restaurant, I love talking with the guests spending time with them and making them feel welcome. That’s hard to do when you have more than two restaurants and with the downturn of the economy a few years back,” he said. Niko’s Lodge in Algonquin Commons, has the rustic, comfortable ambiance of mountain retreat, with wood floors, exposed beams, and stone fireplaces. Open for dinner,

Niko’s Lodge serves steaks, seafood, ribs, and more. “Our house specialty is our rotisserie chicken, which we cook out in the open. The chicken is fresh, never frozen and corn fed, which makes a big difference in the taste,” he said. Other popular specialties include slow cooked baby back ribs, parmesan crusted tilapia, filet and chicken kabobs. The complementary s’mores have also been a big hit. “Everybody loves them, from kids to adults. It goes with our lodge theme, and it’s something no one else is doing. It’s just one more way we take care of our customers,” he said. Niko’s Red Mill Tavern, on Lake Avenue, just off Route 47, is a comfortable local tavern that Kanakaris extensively remodeled before he opened two and a half years ago. The back deck offers plenty of seating and a full service, outdoor bar. The restaurant serves pizza, burgers, salads, sandwiches, and more. Like Niko’s Lodge, the Red Mill offers a Friday night fish fry and Saturday night prime rib. Mondays through Wednesdays, are $5 burger specials. “We’ve been doing it for about a year and it’s been a big hit,” he said. It’s become a popular destination for local sports teams. “We sponsor softball teams, flag football teams and find that whatever we spent on the sponsorship comes back tenfold, because those players come here after games, and come thoughout the year with their families,” he said.

The Red Mill has also hosted fundraisers for local families in need. “We’re always willing to help when there’s a need,” he said. With two locations to run, Kanakaris has also been able

to be more active in his community, serving two terms as a Huntley Village Trustee. He also loves being a dad to his three young sons. Will there be a third Kanakaris generation in the restaurant

business? He laughs. “By the time they’re old enough to take over, I should have it all figured out. I hope,” he said.

McConaughey: I’m listening THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Saturday, April 27, 2013 • PlanitNorthwest.com/buzz

Matthew McConaughey, who’s getting praise from critics for his role in the new movie “Mud,” says he’s found a way to make negative reviews a positive learning experience. McConaughey won best supporting male actor at the Independent Spirit Awards for 2012’s “Magic Mike.” He also received the best supporting actor honor for “Magic Mike” and “Bernie” at the New York Film Critics Circle Awards. But there have been some misses for the 43-year-old actor. Critics panned “Failure to Launch ” and “Fools Gold.” “A few years ago, I did a really interesting kind of experiment,” McConaughey said. “My assistants gathered every negative review I’ve ever had and it was a good, thick pile. I sat down and said, ‘We’re gonna read every one of these.’ There was some really good constructive criticism. I’m like, ‘That’s what I would’ve said about that performance. You’re right.’ ”

George Jones dead at 81 When it comes to country music, George Jones was The Voice. Other great singers have come and gone, but this fact remained inviolate until Jones passed away Friday at 81 in a Nashville hospital after a year of ill health. “Today, someone else has become the greatest living singer of traditional country music, but there will never be another George Jones,” said Bobby Braddock, the Country Music Hall of Fame songwriter who provided Jones with 29 songs over the decades. “No one in country music has influenced so many other artists.” He did it with that voice. Rich and deep, strong enough to crack like a whip, but supple enough to bring tears. It was so powerful, it made Jones the first thoroughly modern country superstar, complete with the substance abuse problems and rich-and-famous celebrity lifestyle that included mansions, multiple divorces and – to hear one fellow performer tell it – fistfuls of cocaine. He was a beloved and at times a notorious figure in Nashville and his problems were just as legendary as his songs. But when you dropped the needle on one of his records, all that stuff went away. And you were left with The Voice. That voice helped Jones achieve No. 1 songs in five separate decades, 1950s to 1990s. And its qualities were admired by more than just his fellow country artists but by Frank Sinatra, Pete Townshend, Elvis Costello, James Taylor and countless others. Word of his death spread Friday morning as his peers paid tribute. Merle Haggard put it best, perhaps: “The world has lost the greatest country singer of all time. Amen.”

Will.i.am denies theft

Bethenny Frankel to expand Skinnygirl

Will.i.am says he’s been unfairly accused of stealing a song from a Russian dance producer for use on his new album. The producer-rapper-singer has acknowledged reaching out to trance producer Arty after hearing his 2011 song with London’s Mat Zo, “Rebound.” Will.i.am recorded a new version with Chris Brown titled, Will.i.am “Let’s Go,” which has been met with criticism online from Arty’s fans. He said he emailed Arty, who initially responded positively to an invitation to collaborate. But in recent weeks, the Russian DJ and producer told fans on his Facebook page there was no final deal between their respective labels and “the matter is under review by our legal teams.” Will.i.am credits Arty, whose real name is Artem Stoliarov, as a writer on the song in the liner notes for his album “(hash)willpower,” released this week. He blamed the slow legal clearance process and said he didn’t know Arty had worked with another producer on the track. Will.i.am said his legal team was also at work on the issue.

Bethenny Frankel plans to expand her Skinnygirl line of wine and spirits and power bars to include more food products. “You’ll definitely see Skinnygirl food,” the former reality TV star said in a recent interview. “If it’s something that I’m passionate about, if it’s something that solves a problem for women in particular because that’s who I connect with the most, and [it’s] any product that I can improve upon or any problem that I can solve, then Skinnygirl will be attached to that.” She recently added what she calls “The New Girls” to her popular line of ready-to-serve drinks.

NBC renews 5 of its dramas Television producer Dick Wolf will be busy next season. NBC said Friday it renewed five of its dramas for next season. Two of them – the long-running “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” and “Chicago Fire” – are made by Wolf and his team. “Revolution,” “Parenthood” and “Grimm” also were given the guarantee they will go on for another year. Each was given a full-season order of 22 new episodes.

Hill signs with Sony to pay taxes Lauryn Hill says she has signed with Sony to pay her overdue taxes. Hill pleaded guilty last year to not paying federal taxes on $1.8 million earned from 2005 to 2007. The 37-year-old posted on her Tumblr blog late Thursday she “signed a new record deal, and that I did this to pay taxes.” The total Hill owes is in dispute, but it is around $1 million. Her next sentencing date in New Jersey is May 6.

MTV piping up for ‘Scream’ series MTV is getting ready to blast viewers with a brand-new “Scream.” The network says it will produce a pilot for a TV-series adaptation of the wildly popular slasher films. The series would reinvent the horror-comedy franchise that began with the original release in 1996 and spawned three sequels, the most recent in 2011. MTV said the films’ original director, Wes Craven, is in discussions to direct the one-hour pilot. The “Scream” series is planned to debut in summer 2014.

WOODSTOCK 5, WOODSTOCK NORTH 0

Woodstock junior Alex Ferguson pitches during the third inning against Woodstock North on Friday at Emricson Park. Ferguson struck out 14 in the Blue Streaks’ 5-0 Fox Valley Conference Fox Division win.

Ferguson baffles Thunder Senior strikes out 14 in 2-hit shutout for Blue Streaks By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Alex Ferguson wasn’t having any difficulty finding the strike zone Friday afternoon, but even when he missed, the result was the same. The Woodstock junior effectively blended his fastball, curve and

a wicked change-up – all of which Woodstock North hitters couldn’t handle. Ferguson struck out 14 in a complete-game, two-hitter as the Blue Streaks cruised to a 5-0 Fox Valley Conference Fox Division win. Ferguson allowed a leadoff single to Julian Zack, who also reached on a sixth-inning single. But otherwise, Ferguson kept the Thunder

guessing and unable to do anything against him in what was easily his best outing of the spring. The Streaks (5-7 overall, 3-7 FVC Fox) produced just enough timely hitting to build a lead before putting the game out of reach with two fifthinning runs. Ferguson, however, didn’t need much. “I worked well and I worked low

CHICAGO – When White Sox manager Robin Ventura evaluates closer Addison Reed, he doesn’t use any special grading scale. For Ventura, it’s simply a pass or fail. Friday against the Rays, he earned a passing grade, despite some shaky moments in the Sox’s 5-4 win. Next Reed didn’t make it easy on Tampa Bay at himself in the Sox, 6:10 p.m. ninth inning after surrendering Saturday, CSN, a one-out double AM-670 to Rays catcher Jose Molina. Inside Reed forced the next batter, Sam Infielder Jeff Fuld, to foul out, Keppinger is but Matt Joyce’s sidelined by single drove in back spasms. Molina and the PAGE C9 right-hander

SOX INSIDER Meghan Montemurro walked Ryan Roberts on five pitches to put the tying run on second. Ventura opted to stick with Reed as switch-hitter Ben Zobrist stepped to the plate. At no point did Ventura have a reliever warming up in the bullpen. Reed backed up his manager’s decision and needed only four pitches to strike out Zobrist, his last pitch an 86 mph slider that earned a called strike three on Zobrist’s check swing. “You can overthink it, but right there he’s the guy,” Ventura said. “He’s done a lot better as far as lefties and having more ammo to get them out. It’s something I feel more comfortable with.”

LAKE FOREST – No pressure, Jon Bostic. The Bears drafted you Friday as the likely long-term replacement for Brian Urlacher at middle linebacker. You know, Urlacher, the guy who wore No. 54 for 13 seasons on the lakefront and eventually became one of the best players in franchise history. That’s saying a lot, too, because the Bears have had a bunch of great players. More specifically, the Bears have had a bunch of great linebackers. “They have linebackers for days,” Bostic said on a conference call after his selection.

8INSIDE PREP TRACK Athletes of the Week Boys ISAIAH MOSHER CL Central, sr. Mosher made up for his personal disappointment at last year’s McHenry County Track and Field Meet in a big way. Mosher suffered a bruised left knee last year and was not a factor. On Saturday at CaryGrove’s Al Bohrer Field, he won the 100 and 200 meters, the long jump and ran a leg on the Tigers’ thirdplace 4x400 relay. Mosher will play football and compete in track and field next year at NAIA St. Ambrose in Davenport, Iowa. He ran the 100 in 10.99, the 200 in 23.0 and long jumped 21-10. Girls LAUREN Van VLIERBERGEN Jacobs, so. Van Vlierbergen anchored the Golden Eagles’ record-setting 4x800-meter relay team and then came back to win the 1,600 meters at the McHenry County Track and Field Meet Saturday at Cary-Grove’s Al Bohrer Field. Sam Baran, Molly Barnes, Kayla Guiliano and Van Vlierbergen ran 9:46.11 for the record in the first finals’ race of the meet. Van Vlierbergen came back in a loaded 1,600 meters, which featured Crystal Lake Central’s Sami Staples, Marengo’s Katie Adams and Woodstock’s Maura Beattie, and won in 5:05.04, 3 seconds ahead of Staples. She also ran a leg on the Eagles’ 4x400 team that finished third. Jacobs assistant coach Kevin Christian marvels at Van Vlierbergen’s all-around versatility. She finished seventh in the IHSA Class 3A Cross Country State Meet, but also runs a 400 in the 57-second range. Last season, Van Vlierbergen’s best race was the 800, which she still will run with the relay team.

Noteworthy Good throwing: Cary-Grove’s Ricky Hurley and Huntley’s Justin Herbert staged some of the best competition in the county meet in the boys’ throwing events. Both threw their season-bests in the shot put and discus as they split those titles. Hurley won the shot put at 53-9, but not before Herbert pushed him by throwing 52-6. Herbert then won the discus at 163-1, with Hurley throwing 161-9 on the competition’s next throw. Mind over matter: Huntley’s Omo Tseumah cleared 5-8 to set the high jump record at the county meet. She also cleared that height early last season in cooler weather not the most conducive for great jumping. “I know it’s hard, but I don’t want that to be an excuse,” said Tseumah, who will compete for Marquette next year. “I just prepare myself mentally. I tell myself, ‘I came here for a mission and I have to accomplish that.’ ” Giant efforts: Alden-Hebron, with an enrollment of 122, managed one of its better showings ever against the big boys with 13 points. The Giants’ Donald Johnson was third in the 100 and eighth in the triple jump, while Justin Gricar took fourth in the long jump. Missing: Some of the top performers missed the meet with sickness or battling injuries. C-G’s Michael Gleeson and Alex Bussan, two of the area’s best 400 runners, were out. Prairie Ridge distance man Joe Cowlin also missed the meet.

This week’s top meets Palatine Relays 8:30 a.m. Saturday Huntley, Jacobs and Prairie Ridge will be competing in the boys and girls meet. Huntley boys are coming off their co-championship at last week’s McHenry County Meet. Fox Valley Conference Meet 4 p.m. Thursday at Grayslake Central Cary-Grove is going for its fifth consecutive team title. The field events start at 4 p.m., with running preliminaries shortly after that. Big Northern Conference Meet 4 p.m. Thursday at Genoa-Kingston Marengo, Richmond-Burton and Harvard are the local teams competing. Look for Marengo to score big in the distance events with Katie Adams and Allie Sprague. – Joe Stevenson

HAMPSHIRE GIRLS BASKETBALL

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

BOYS ROUNDUP

Featherly named coach McHenry tops CLS By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com Mike Featherly got a shot at being head coach on a part-time basis with Hampshire’s boys basketball team last season. Now, Featherly will get to be a boss full-time. Hampshire athletic director David Hicks announced Friday that Featherly has been hired as the Whip-Purs’ head girls basketball coach. He replaces Ed Haugens, who had been head coach for three seasons. Featherly coached the Whips’ boys team briefly early in the season after head coach Bob Barnett suffered two heart attacks on the morning of the first

game. Barnett returned to the bench two weeks later. Featherly has coached for 10 years, seven as an assistant on Barnett’s staff at Hampshire. “ W e could not have been more pleased Mike with Mike’s Featherly performance while filling in for Bob during his absence,” Hampshire principal Chuck Bumbales said. “Mike showed the leadership skills necessary to run a program during his stint as the leader of our program.” Haugens was 205-100 in 10 seasons between Jacobs and

Hampshire and felt the demands of time were taking away from his family. The Whips were 11-15 this season, but will return a lot of experienced young players. “I look forward to the opportunity to continue the proud tradition of Hampshire girls’ basketball,” Featherly said. “Being chosen to lead a program in such a supportive community is extremely humbling. Knowing the high standards the administration has for their head coaches; it is an honor to be chosen. Having taught at Hampshire for the last seven years, I am excited to start working with the quality girls in the program.” Featherly teaches social studies at the high school.

to forge tie for 1st NORTHWEST HERALD The Fox Valley Conference Valley Division baseball race continues to be tight. McHenry defeated Crystal Lake South, 13-9, on Friday, leaving the victorious Warriors (14-6 overall, 8-2 FVC Valley) tied for first with the Gators (11-2, 8-2) and Huntley. Devon Gehrke led the Warriors at the plate, going 3 for 5 with a home run, four RBIs and three runs scored. Robert Nagel and Cody Freund each were 2 for 4, with Nagel scoring three runs. Tom Gaede and Jake Bigos each went 2 for 4 with two runs scored for the Gators, with Gaede driving in three runs.

Raiders (15-2, 8-2) Dylan Kissack doubled for the Chargers (6-9, 4-6).

Burlington Central 4, Harvard 1: At Burlington, Chance Shelton was 2 for 4 as the Hornets (4-9, 1-4 BNC) scored their only run in the third inning, finishing with five hits.

Grayslake North 13, Hampshire 5: At Hampshire, Piotr Barnas doubled and homered for the Whip-Purs in an FVC loss against the Knights (8-4, 5-3).

Grayslake Central 6, Johnsburg 0: At Grayslake, Erich Zawaki went 1 for 1 with two walks for the Skyhawks (2-11, 0-8), with Kevin Kordik going 1 for 2 with a walk in their FVC Fox loss.

Streaks’ Buhrow has 2 hits • BASEBALL Continued from page C1 Eric Bell also drove in a pair of runs while the Streaks also used a bases-loaded walk to close out their scoring. The Thunder (1-9, 0-7) struggled to get anything going, twice putting two runners on, but unable to produce any runs thanks to Ferguson’s pitching. Ferguson struck out the side three different innings, including in the seventh to close out the win. “We struggle a little

bit with offense and we see some velocity off him today,” North coach Ian Rago said. “You’ve got to give him credit. Look at the way he threw the ball. He controlled the game. He was basically the game today.” As solid as Ferguson was, Woodstock generated its fair share of offense. Buhrow had two hits, highlighting a seven-hit attack that was impacted by gusty winds blowing in that kept the ball up in the air, stripping hitters of what would have otherwise been extra-base hits.

The Streaks have finally started to find some offensive rhythm, which they believe may be coming around just in time to generate some wins in the final weeks of a regular season that’s been cut short by cold temperatures and plenty of rain. But Friday, everything came together. “If we play like this all year, we can play with any team out there,” Buhrow said. “Once we start hitting the ball and we get pitching like we did [from Ferguson], we’ll be all right.”

BEARS NOTES

Long all smiles day after selection Covers helps Gophers finish By TOM MUSICK

tmusick@shawmedia.com CHICAGO – Kyle Long was walking through the Bears’ locker room on his first day on the job Friday when he bumped into new teammate Brandon Marshall. “He said, ‘You’re big-leaguing me already?’ ” Long said with a grin. “I said, ‘Did I miss something?’ “He said, ‘I texted you last Kyle Long night,’ ” said Long, who mistakenly overlooked the message among a flood of responses on his phone. “I felt bad because here’s Brandon Marshall, who is bigger than me. He’s giving me [grief] and it’s only Day One.” The Bears hope Marshall’s good-natured ribbing brought the first of many smiles for the rookie offensive lineman at Halas Hall. Long toured the practice facility and met with general manager Phil Emery, head coach Marc Trestman and others a day after the

Bears selected him with the No. 20 overall pick in the first round of the NFL draft. Long also received a congratulatory text message from Jay Cutler after the draft. It will be his job to protect Cutler, who has absorbed 148 sacks in four seasons with the Bears. Whether Long does that as a guard or a tackle is irrelevant to him. “I mean, I’m an offensive lineman,” said Long, who will wear No. 75 for the Bears. “The beauty of that position is that the positions aren’t that much different. I just want to play. I don’t care where it is.” Proud papa: Howie and Diane Long watched from the back of the auditorium at Halas Hall as Kyle took part in his introductory news conference with the Bears. From an early age, Howie said, it was apparent that Kyle was a star athlete. “I’ve been saying this to his mom since he was 4 years old: He’s kind of a freak of nature, physically,” said Howie Long, who was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2000. “God just puts the hand on some people, puts

the hand on their shoulder and says, ‘You’re gifted. Now what are you going to do with it?’ And that’s Kyle. “When you throw 95 [mph] in high school and you’re 295 [pounds] in high school and you run a 4.8 [40-yard dash] and you can jump out of the building, you can tomahawk dunk a basketball and all of those things, the question then becomes, what direction do you go in and how important is it to you? “It became obvious to us that over the last few years, it was very important for him.” Howie Long, who played for the Raiders throughout his career, described the Bears as a “crown jewel” franchise. Without naming teams, he hinted his son would have been drafted later in the first round if the Bears had not select him at No. 20 overall. Grand finale: Emery and the Bears will wrap up the draft starting at 11 a.m. Saturday with picks slated for the fourth, fifth and sixth rounds. Barring a trade, the Bears will not have a selection in the seventh round because of a previous deal with Tampa Bay.

Bostic 4th linebacker chosen in draft • MUSICK Continued from page C1 You’ll join veterans such as Briggs, D.J. Williams and James Anderson as the newest member of the Bears’ linebacker corps. Briggs will turn 33 this winter, Williams will turn 31 this summer, and Anderson will turn 30 this fall. You’ll have an opportunity to win a starting job as a rookie, according to Phil Emery, one of your new bosses. No matter what, you’ll be relied upon as a key special-teams player, and you’ll be expected to emerge as a starting linebacker before too long. You were the fourth linebacker to be selected during the second round, after Notre Dame’s Manti Te’o to San Diego, LSU’s Kevin Minter to Arizona and Oregon’s Kiko Alonso to Buffalo. But you stood out, Emery said, because of your football smarts, speed, ability to play three linebacker positions and special-teams prowess. “He fit the bill,” Emery said.

You certainly did well as a four-year member of the Florida Gators, for whom you made all of the defensive play calls. You started 32 of 51 games at middle linebacker and registered 237 tackles, eight sacks, 19 ½ tackles for loss and five interceptions. You’re young – happy 22nd birthday a week in advance – and you’re fast, clocking an impressive 40-yard dash time of 4.61 seconds. The Bears badly needed youth and speed at linebacker, although they did consider selecting a cornerback in Round 2. It appears that your hardnosed skill set will fit in nicely with the Bears’ mentality. According to a CBS scouting report, you are an “instinctive, physical football player who doesn’t back down from a challenge. … Closes with aggression, bringing his hips and driving through the ball-carrier to flash the ability to make the big hit. Seems to enjoy the physicality of the game, rushing to take on fullbacks and pulling linemen. ” That sounds great.

But it’s one thing to hit hard in college football – albeit in the SEC, far and away the toughest conference in the country. It’s another thing to square your hips and blast into opponents in cities such as Green Bay and Minnesota and Detroit. The Bears think you have what it takes. That’s why they selected you at No. 50, ahead of Kansas State middle linebacker Arthur Brown, who went to the Baltimore Ravens six picks later. It turns out that you have a few things in common with Brown. As you follow Urlacher, Brown will try to follow in the footsteps of a legend named Ray Lewis. “I know it’s going to take a lot of work,” Bostic said. We’ll check back in a decade or so to see how it’s going. No pressure. • Northwest Herald sports columnist Tom Musick can be reached at tmusick@shawmedia.com and on Twitter @ tcmusick.

8th at NCAA Championships Whenever Jenny Covers hears about Minnesota’s women’s gymnastics history, one season dominates the conversation. “We still hear about the 2002 team that went [to nationals],” said Covers, a Prairie Ridge graduate who is a sophomore for the Gophers. Last week, Covers helped the school write a new chapter for the history books as Minnesota placed eighth in the NCAA championships in Los Angeles. It was the Jenny Covers first time the Gophers made the nationals since 2002. “Now we will be that 2013 team that people will talk about,” she said. “The girls of the future will look to us. It’s great to be part of something that’s bigger than yourself. The culture here is so great.” Covers was an integral part of the Gophers’ success this season. She went from competing in one event last season – vault – to being an all-around competitor. The team scored 196.375 at nationals, marking a school-record ninth time this season that the team’s score surpassed 196. “We started the year ranked 23rd and made it all the way to eighth at nationals,” she said. “That’s such a jump. We surprised some people. We showed them that we’re here to play.” Covers competed in three of four events during team competition. She performed in the lead position in the bars, posting a 9.75, and in the floor exercise (9.8). “There’s a lot of pressure in that (lead) spot,” she said. “That’s one of the most important spots. You have to pump up the team and get the ball rolling.” Covers, who was an alternate on beam, was chosen to close out the team’s vault competition, where she posted a 9.825. “You have to be that exclamation point,” she said.

ON CAMPUS Barry Bottino Covers said her improvement was the result of a busy offseason spent honing her skills in every event. “I’m really proud that I worked hard to get what I wanted,” she said. “I wanted to help our team get to that next level.” As the team’s bus was heading to the airport in Los Angeles after the meet, Covers and her teammates weren’t talking about the trip back to Minneapolis. They were focused on making more history. Their preferred destination was Birmingham, Ala., the site of next season’s NCAA championships. “This was such a rewarding experience,” Covers said. “Now I want to go back. I want our seniors next year to go back. I want to go back as a senior.” On par at Monmouth: Junior Mike Olszewski of D-III Monmouth College was named the Midwest Conference Men’s Golf Performer of the Week on Tuesday after winning the individual title by one stroke at last weekend’s Illinois College Blueboy Invitational. A Cary-Grove grad, Olszewski posted a season-low round of 73 on the tournament’s opening day. He followed that with a second-round 79 for a season-best 36-hole effort of 152. Monmouth won the team title by seven shots. Schulty shines: Woodstock grad Taylor Schulty is batting .400 this season while leading D-II Hillsdale (Mich.) College’s softball team in five offensive categories. Schulty, a senior outfielder, leads the Chargers (10-14) with 24 RBIs, 10 doubles, five home runs, 32 hits and a .712 slugging percentage. Schulty has had seven multiple-RBI games, including two four-RBI games. She hit a grand slam last weekend in an 11-1 victory

against Walsh. Schulty ranks third in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference in slugging percentage and sixth in batting average. Byrne at his best: Matt Byrne, a freshman second baseman for D-I Iona’s baseball team, is batting .400 over the past 10 games for the Gaels. Byrne, a Cary-Grove grad who has started 27 games, went 2 for 2 with a double and an RBI on April 20 in a 6-1 win against Marist. He also homered and scored three runs April 16 in 7-4 win against Fordham. For the season, Byrne is batting .258 for Iona (6-33), which has 14 freshmen on its roster. Whitewater achiever: Wisconsin-Whitewater sophomore Amy Miskowicz put the shot a personal-best 42 feet, 9½ inches last weekend to place third in the event at the Augustana Women’s Invitational. For Miskowicz, a Marian Central grad, the throw is the best this season for the Warhawks, ranks second in the D-III Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference and is 12th in the nation. For her effort, Miskowicz was named Whitewater’s track and field athlete of the week. Klein is SXU’s bat man: Huntley grad Chris Klein is the leading hitter this season for NAIA Saint Xavier University’s baseball team. Klein, a junior outfielder/ pitcher, is batting a team-best .333 for the Cougars (21-17) while boasting a 4-3 record as a starting pitcher. As a hitter, Klein leads the team with a .476 slugging percentage and has compiled 20 RBIs and 25 runs scored. • Barry Bottino writes a weekly column and a blog about local college athletes for the Northwest Herald.

Injury strikes at bad time for Keppinger By MEGHAN MONTEMURRO

Dunn sticks in No. 4 spot:

mmontemurro@shawmedia.com

Sporting a .108 batting average entering Friday’s game, designated hitter Adam Dunn still found himself batting fourth when the lineup was posted in the Sox’s clubhouse. Despite eight hits in 74 atbats – four of which are home runs – Ventura is sticking with Dunn in the heart of the Sox’s lineup. “I think you consider everything but again, he’s swinging it better and I like him in that spot,” Ventura said. “He does walk. If he’s going to do that and put up the god at-bats he’s had the last few nights then you get him on there with Paul [Konerko] and [Conor] Gillaspie coming up behind him.” Dunn’s six walks in 20 games can’t overshadow his 28 strikeouts and .185 on-base percentage, which ranks last in the majors. While Ventura conceded Dunn provides a positive impact in the clubhouse, on-field results still matter especially when Beckham and Viciedo’s return to the lineup. “That stuff is never in question,” Ventura said. “But again, we’re playing baseball, so it’s what’s about what’s going on here and how we’re doing. You make decisions on that too.” Quick hits: Left-handed reliever Leyson Septimo (left shoulder) made a rehab appearance Friday with Triple-A Charlotte. Septimo has been on the disabled list since March 26. … The Sox rank second in the American League with a 3.20 ERA and a 2.38 mark at U.S. Cellular Field. ... Sox prospect Jared Mitchell landed on the DL with an oblique strain. Mitchell opened the season at Charlotte but was demoted to Double-A Birmingham after a slow start.

CHICAGO – Just as he was finding a rhythm at the plate, an injury has knocked White Sox second baseman Jeff Keppinger out of the lineup. Keppinger had recorded three consecutive multihit games, going 6 for 12 during that stretch, but back spasms kept Jeff h i m o n t h e Keppinger bench Friday against the Rays. Manager Robin Ventura said Keppinger’s back issue cropped up towards the end of Thursday’s game. Although Keppinger received treatment on his back leading up to Friday’s game, he wasn’t going to be ready in time to play forcing Ventura to pencil Tyler Greene in the lineup. “That’s why you have extra guys, you get them in there and play and make due,” Ventura said. “It’s one of those things you get him healthy first. There’s no sense in sending him out there if he’s not feeling good.” Outfielder Dewayne Wise was scratched from the lineup because of a stiff neck and is considered day-to-day. Jordan Danks replaced him in center field leaving Ventura with only two players, catcher Tyler Flowers and outfielder Blake Tekotte, on the bench. “Injuries happen and we’ve had a couple of them that are unfortunate with Gordon [Beckham] and [Carlos] Sanchez and [Dayan] Viciedo,” Ventura said. “But again, teams deal with injuries and you keep going. Just put another guy in there and go. You have to find a way.”

Reed 8 for 8 on saves • SOX Continued from page C1 Reed, who is 8 for 8 in save chances this season, matched his career high with eight consecutive saves, which he has accomplished three times in his career, most recently July 23 to Aug. 22 of last year. “Not to sound cocky or anything, but that’s what I expected,” Reed said. “Coming into the year, I wasn’t expecting to go out there eight times and only get five saves. I expected that every save opportunity I get a save.” For the first time in his career, Reed appeared in three straight games – all save opportunities. Reed said he felt strong, though conceded he wasn’t sure how he will feel today, after throwing 56 pitches the last three days, including a season-high 31 pitches Friday. “When I’m out there, obviously I don’t want to get into that situation, but I want to get through the inning,” Reed said. “It’s awesome that he didn’t have anybody warming up, and it’s nice that they have that confidence in me.” Reed follows the same routine every day even if he thinks he might get the day off. That mindset and preparation has kept him focused and his mechanics intact through his first 11 outings of the season. There haven’t been many moments where Reed has faltered. Tampa Bay’s ninth inning run was only the second run Reed had allowed this season. But it’s not unreasonable to wonder if Reed’s arm can handle what is quickly becoming a heavier workload this season. He’s already one-fifth of the way to the 55 innings he threw last year, and the Sox have played only 22 games. Reed’s 11 innings are third most pitched this season by any closer. Reed didn’t reach the 11-inning mark last season until May 14 against Detroit, when he picked up his third save. Closers are a commodity, and the Sox shouldn’t use Reed in every save opportunity.

Inside the Sox WHITE SOX 5, RAYS 4 Tipping point: A home run barrage provided the offensive boost the White Sox have been searching for this season. The Sox hit three home runs in the fifth and sixth innings to grab a two-run lead, which was all they needed with Jake Peavy on the mound and a steady rotation of relievers in the final 3⅓ innings. Addison Reed tallied his eighth save in eight chances, and the Sox are riding a three-game winning streak. On the mound: Peavy’s run of good starts at U.S. Cellular Field continued Friday against the Rays. He surrendered three runs on six hits – including two solo home runs – while walking one batter in 6⅔ innings. Peavy’s six strikeouts gives him 39 this season, third most in the American League. In his last 13 home starts Peavy owns a 2.38 ERA since June 1. At the plate: The Sox rallied from a 3-0 deficit by scoring five runs off Rays starter Roberto Hernandez. Adam Dunn (2 for 4) drove in the first Sox run with a single in the fourth and one inning later, Hector Gimenez hit the first home run of his career and Tyler Greene’s two-run homer gave the Sox a one-run lead. Under the radar: For the first time this season, the Sox managed to score at least five runs in back-to-back games, both coming against the Rays. The Sox have won seven of their last 10 games against Tampa Bay. “The more he pitches, the better he is,” Ventura said. “It’s one of those that we like that he gets to come in and pitch. There might be times that you might find somebody else in that role, if he’s had a lot in a role but it’s his. It’s his job to do.”

Cubs pitcher Scott Feldman delivers to a Marlins batter during the sixth inning of the Cubs’ 4-2 win Friday night in Miami.

CUBS 4, MARLINS 2

Rizzo hits 2 homers Cubs win back-to-back for 1st time this year The ASSOCIATED PRESS MIAMI – Anthony Rizzo wanted a single. He finally got one in the eighth inning, but not before hitting two two-run homers to power the Cubs to a 4-2 victory over the Miami Marlins on Friday night, giving Cubs back-to-back wins for the first time this season. “This is going to sound stupid, but the single there in my last at-bat was probably my favorite one just because that’s my swing there,” Rizzo said. Rizzo’s second career twohome run game gave him eight on the season, the most by a Cubs left-handed hitter in April. Billy Williams (1970) and Henry Rodriguez (2000) each hit seven. “It’s all about production and that’s what I’m supposed to do,” Rizzo said. Scott Feldman (1-3) allowed two runs in 6⅔ innings, Kevin Gregg recorded his second save, and Darwin Barney had three hits for the Cubs, who beat Miami 4-3 on Thursday and had been 0-6 after a win. “You can say it as many times as you want, but winning is so much more fun

Next for the Cubs Cubs at Miami, 6:10 p.m. Saturday, CSN+, AM-720 than losing,” Feldman said. “Hopefully this is a start to a little hot streak here and we can keep playing well.” Rizzo, who hails from nearby Parkland, Fla., and had about 100 supporters in attendance, came into the game mired in a 1-for-20 slump and hitting .173 on the season, but broke out by going 3 for 4 with a stolen base. “He has eight (home runs) and 18 RBIs now after hitting .173, but it’s nice because we know that will all come plus everything else when he gets hot,” Cubs manager Dale Sveum said. “It’s still a nice month having eight homers. At least that’s kept him probably sane.” He was 0 for 4 with three strikeouts in the first game of the series Thursday. “After yesterday it means a lot,” Rizzo said. “I had a lot

of people here, lot of friends and family, and a lot of people I don’t even know here supporting. It feels good and after last night, it was a little embarrassing, but to come back today and get the win and have a good game in front of everyone it feels really good.” Rizzo hit a two-run homer off Wade LeBlanc (0-4) in the first inning to deep center field estimated at 420 feet and followed that blast with an estimated 413-foot two-run shot to the upper deck in right field in his next at-bat, again off LeBlanc, who allowed four runs in six innings. “I made a few mistakes that I got away with tonight, but the two that really hurt me are the two that I need to execute better,” LeBlanc said. Joe Mahoney hit his first career homer for the Marlins in the fourth to cut the deficit to 4-1. “In the heat of the battle I was just thinking we’re three down,” Mahoney said. “I’ll reflect more on it probably tonight. But it’s starting to sink in. It’s good to get the first one out of the way and kind of settle in. I’ve been waiting to get that one for a while now. It’s definitely a good feeling.”

MLB ROUNDUP

Zimmerman leads Nationals The ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – Jordan Zimmermann was terrific in his second complete game of the season and the Washington Nationals limited the Cincinnati Reds to one hit for the second straight game in a 1-0 victory Friday night. Zimmermann (4-1) struck out four and walked one while improving to 3-0 with a 1.36 ERA in five career games against Cincinnati. The right-hander needed only 91 pitches to record his third career complete game. Cardinals 9, Pirates 1: At St. Louis, Carlos Beltran homered from both sides of the plate and drove in three runs to lead Lance Lynn and the Cardinals to the victory. Lynn (4-0) struck out nine in seven innings, allowing one run and two hits. The right-hander improved to 9-0 with a 2.63 ERA in his last 10 regular-season appearances. Phillies 4, Mets 0: At New York, Kyle Kendrick pitched the best game of his career,

throwing a three-hitter for Philadelphia and getting home-run help from Ryan Howard.

AMERICAN LEAGUE Yankees 6, Blue Jays 4: At New York, David Phelps struck out a career-high nine in four innings after relieving the injured Ivan Nova, Chris Stewart threw out two baserunners to quash potential rallies as an emergency fill-in for Francisco Cervelli and New York beat Toronto. Lyle Overbay hit a goahead RBI triple and Vernon Wells had a sacrifice fly off Aaron Laffey in an inning the fill-in starter for Josh Johnson walked four, helping New York overcome two homers by Edwin Encarnacion. Rangers 4, Twins 3: At Minneapolis, Adrian Beltre homered and rookie Justin Grimm won his second consecutive start and the Rangers beat the Twins. Lance Berkman, Nelson Cruz and Ian Kinsler each

had RBI doubles for the Rangers, who won for the seventh time in their past eight games. Red Sox 7: Astros 3: At Boston, David Ross cleared the Green Monster twice with solo home runs and Ryan Dempster struck out 10 for the Red Sox in a win over the Astros.

INTERLEAGUE Tigers 10, Braves 0: At Detroit, Anibal Sanchez struck out 17 in eight marvelous innings for Detroit, confounding the Braves in a dazzling performance. Sanchez set a team record for strikeouts in a nine-inning game, and he had a mathematical chance of tying the major league mark of 20 when he was pulled after eight innings and 121 pitches. Sanchez (3-1) took off his hat as he was leaving the field following the top of the eighth, acknowledging a huge ovation at Comerica Park after he struck out Dan Uggla, his final hitter.

Take Charge Indy, shown two days before running in last year’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, will race Friday in the Alysheba Stakes at the Louisville, Ky., track. stronger than he was early this spring, which should make for a solid performance in Friday’s race. The Sandfords have entries in races throughout Derby week, which Byrne described as a Super Bowl and Mardi Gras all rolled into one. After last year, when Take Charge Indy suffered an ankle injury in the Kentucky Derby and

finished 19th, Chuck Sandford said there won’t be as much newness to adjust to this time, especially on a track where his horses feel at home. “Derby Week is just a special week and we got to go through it last year,” Chuck Sandford said. “So, we understand it a little bit better and so to be able to run a couple of different horses on Oaks Day should be really exciting.”

jarnold@shawmedia.com Last year, Take Charge Indy found himself in the middle of the run for the roses at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky. Next weekend, the 4-year-old colt, owned by Marengo residents Chuck and Maribeth Sandford, will run again at the site of the Kentucky Derby. Take Charge Indy will run in the $300,000 Alysheba Stakes on Friday, a Grade 2, 11/16-mile race that will be part of the Kentucky Oaks undercard, Chuck Sandford confirmed Friday. Trainer Patrick Byrne said Rosie Napravnik – who rode Take Charge Indy to a second-place finish at the Skip Away Stakes in March – will again be aboard for the race, expected to be run in front of more than 100,000 fans. “These are always tough races, but he seems to be doing well,” Byrne said in a telephone interview Friday. “So we’ll look forward to running him and watching him run. “This will probably be a little tougher race [than the Skip Away Stakes], but he’s up for the task. Take Charge Indy, which is stabled at Churchill Downs for eight months out of the year, led for much of the Skip Away Stakes. Cigar Street made a late charge down the stretch after taking the lead on the final turn and edged Take Charge Indy at the finish. Since then, Byrne said Take Charge Indy has been able to put on weight and is running

NICA Shooting co-owner Brenda Mason and her daughter, Caitlyn, pose for a portrait in the family’s store in Woodstock.

NICA finds its niche Accessories for hunters and the great outdoors NORTHWEST HERALD WOODSTOCK – After 19 years as a basement business that was quickly expanding, NICA Shooting has moved into a retail space in Woodstock. “My husband wanted his basement and garage back,” said co-owner Brenda Mason of her husband, Tim. “Everyone always asks what NICA stands for and I tell them it is for my kids, NIcholas and Caitlyn,” Brenda said. “It was a special tribute to them because the company is the only reason I was able to stay home with them when they were younger.” Tim and Brenda Mason welcomed their first grandchild in December when Caitlyn gave birth to Makenna. Shortly before Makenna was born, Nicholas, a U.S. Army lieutenant, was deployed for his first tour to Afghanistan. He’s expected to be back in September. The store features a small retail area packed with merchandise while the back of the building is used as storage and shipping space. The company specializes in clothing and accessories for hunters and the great outdoors, carrying merchandise from Browning, Beretta, Galco, Bob Allen and more. NICA recently began to develop its own line and offers a cold-weather insulated jacket as well as a high-end shooting vest. The company started in 1994 when Tim and Brenda Mason recognized a need for hard-to-find items in the shooting sports. “My husband is 6-foot-3 and it was virtually impossible to find vests and jackets that fit him,” Brenda said. “At the time it was difficult to find anything for women in the sport, or left-handed people like

my son. We saw this gap in the market and decided to try to close it.” Shortly after the company began, the Internet became easily accessible and NICA became one of the first and

only online shooting accessories company. A company that started with a card table and one rolling clothing rack has now become an internationally recognized name in shooting sports. “We never imagined we would take it this far,” Brenda said. Brenda said the move from the basement to right off the square at 114 E. Calhoun St. in Woodstock “has been a big change. But I am excited to start seeing our customers face to face, and bringing in new customers that didn’t realize we were here,” she said. “We look forward to celebrating our 20th anniversary in February in a new space and welcome the public to join us, as well,” she said.

AT&T to sell home automation, security By PETER SVENSSON AP Technology Writer NEW YORK – AT&T Inc. is launching its home security and automation service in 15 cities Friday, with an eye toward getting customers hooked on security cameras, thermostats and locks they can control from phones and tablets. AT&T’s “Digital Life” packages will be sold in cellphone stores in markets including Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco and Miami. The company plans to roll the offering out to 50 markets by the end of the year. The home monitoring and automation field is dominated by security firms such as ADT Corp. Other phone and cable companies sell security packages, but AT&T is going further than competitors by developing its own technology and selling it nationwide, not just where it provides local phone service. It has set up monitoring centers, in Dallas and Atlanta. The entire U.S. home security market is worth about $18 billion per year, said Glenn Lurie, who is in charge of expanding the reach of AT&T’s network to new types of devices. That’s small compared to AT&T’s $127 billion in annual revenue. But only 20

percent of homes have security systems, so there’s an opportunity to expand the market, Lurie said. The initiative comes as the wireless industry has slowed after a decade of heady growth. Now that nearly everyone has a cellphone, wireless companies are looking for other sources of growth. “We see huge opportunity here. This is a significant, billion-dollar opportunity for AT&T,” Lurie said. AT&T is also hoping to get customers to pay more than the typical $40 per month for home security alone, by providing connections to wireless cameras and other sensors. AT&T will charge $250 for the equipment and installation of a home security package, plus $40 per month. Options include a camera package for $10 per month plus equipment and installation, climate control for $5 per month, and a remote water main shutoff control for $10 per month. The equipment ties into a central control panel which can be programmed through the app or Web interface to, for instance, shut off the water main if the water sensor detects a leak. A basic, security-only package will

cost $150, plus $30 per month. Ralph De La Vega, head of AT&T’s wireless division, said employees who tested Digital Life in Atlanta and Dallas last year bought a lot more cameras than the company had been expecting. One of them set a camera to be triggered by motion sensor on the front porch, and nabbed a thief who had been stealing packages. Only about 1 percent of homes have automation systems, and De La Vega said this could be a big opportunity as well. He’s happy he can now check whether his garage doors are open and close them from his phone. “It’s just getting people used to living a different way ... We haven’t even begun to tap into the available marketplace. I think the idea is huge,” De La Vega said. The central panel connects to AT&T’s wireless network, but should also be connected to a wired Internet modem for redundancy, AT&T said. Any Internet connection will work — it doesn’t have to be AT&T’s. Two years ago, AT&T bought Xanboo, a smart-home technology startup. Last year, AT&T announced its plans to launch Digital Life nationwide, and ran trials with employees in Dallas and Atlanta.

CRYSTAL LAKE – A real estate firm is seeking tenants for the Sears building on Route 14, but the store will remain open, a company spokesman said. “The store is not closing,” Sears Holding Corp. spokesman Howard Riefs said Friday, but the company is seeking other tenants to share the space. “This is our standard practice of pursing subtenants, out-parcel development and alternative uses within our large real estate asset footprint,” Riefs said. “In doing so, we are not closing and replacing an existing store but rather seeking complementary retailers.” Mid-America Real Estate Corp. listed the 103,867-square-foot freestanding building at 105 Route 14 for lease. The real estate company also is seeking tenants for the Sears store in Bloomingdale and six Kmart stores in the suburbs. Riefs said the real estate strategy has worked elsewhere. “Other real estate brokers around the country have successfully performed in this capacity on our behalf,” he said. “For example, the Olive Garden recently leased space on our Kmart property on West Addison Street in Chicago, where they plan to build a new restaurant. The store will remain there and continue to serve customers.” Mid-America listed the Crystal Lake property for anchor and junior anchor tenants, highlighting the site’s “excellent visibility” and the more than 27,100 vehicles that pass by daily on Route 14. The building is located at the southeast corner of Route 14 and Virginia Road. Sears has closed lessprofitable stores and implemented other cost-savings measures as it has struggled to turnaround its business. The lease news was first reported Thursday by Crain’s Real Estate Daily, which said Sears was “laying the groundwork to close more Sears and Kmart stores in the Chicago area” to raise cash.

AptarGroup reports 1Q sales up 4% CRYSTAL LAKE – AptarGroup Inc. reported sales increased 4 percent to $618 million in the first quarter. Sales a year ago were $592 million. The Crystal Lake-based company said Thursday that earnings per share of $0.59 included the negative impact of $0.05 per share from charges related to the European Operations Optimization plan. Food + Beverage segment had a strong quarter with 13 percent sales growth and 26 percent segment income growth. Aptar Stelmi, which was acquired in July 2012, contributed approximately $35 million or 6 percent to the quarterly sales growth. “Demand for our Food + Beverage dispensing systems was strong in the quarter,” said President and CEO Stephen Hagge. “Our operations in Latin America and Asia posted another quarter of strong growth.”

Different choices in the ‘new retirement’

Burger King 1Q earnings soar, revenue shrinks

“Retirement is an opportunity to open a new, active chapter in life.” Do you agree with that statement? An increasing number of Americans do, and it’s changing their whole approach to later life. People’s attitudes about retirement have changed. People are looking at retirement as a time to be productive and active in a way that allows them more flexibility and freedom than they’ve had during their working years. For numerous sixty-somethings, this means staying in the job market but changing their relationship to work, whether with new hours or a whole new career. For others, it means rethinking their retirements entirely – and possibly arriving at very different conclusions. Increasing numbers of Americans are extending their working years beyond 65. A 2011 Retirement Confidence survey by the Employee Benefit Research Institute found that while only 23 percent of retirees reported working for pay in the previous year, three-quarters of workers said they expected to be employed during their retirement. More people want to keep

Burger King’s first-quarter earnings more than doubled even though revenue fell, as the fast-food chain trimmed several restaurant-related expenses. The Miami-based company had warned earlier this month that sales at established restaurants were expected to fall during the quarter, and they wound up declining 1.4 percent. That includes a 3 percent drop in the United States and Canada. Burger King said competition and a strong first quarter last year hurt U.S. and Canadian sales comparisons to this year’s quarter. But it said sales from those countries rallied in March due in part to promotions like the $1.29 Whopper Jr.

Chevron profit down 4.5 pct. on lower oil prices NEW YORK – Chevron Corp.’s net income fell 4.5 percent in the first quarter as oil prices fell and refinery output declined. Chevron, the second largest U.S. oil company, has delivered better profit margins than the other energy majors in recent years because a big part of its production mix is oil, which has been fetching high prices. Rivals, like Exxon Mobil, produce more natural gas in the U.S, where gas prices have been low. But crude prices fell across the globe in the first three months of this year as Europe remained mired in recession and growth in China slowed. That reduced Chevron’s revenue and profit. Chevron, based in San Ramon, Calif., reported Friday that net income fell to $6.18 billion, or $3.18 per share, on revenue of $56.82 billion. Last year the company earned $6.47 billion, or $3.27 per share, on revenue of $60.71 billion. The profit exceeded analysts’ average forecast of $3.09 per share.

reflected in how they are approaching retirement. Statistics point to the desire for fulfillment. The EBRI survey found that 92 percent of retirees working for pay did so because they wanted to stay active and involved. People want to be challenged and, perhaps most importantly, they want to maintain social connections to co-workers and others. But working longer doesn’t necessarily mean sticking with the same job. Many older Americans are using retirement as an opportunity to start a new career, diving into a completely new field. Others are pursuing more independence in their current field. For example, it’s increasingly common for workers in their 60s to shift to part-time schedules or telecommuting rather than leaving their jobs altogether. It’s common for someone to start a consulting business during retirement, using contacts built up during their career. Others use retirement as a chance to start an entirely new business or focus on volunteer work. Whether you prefer a more traditional retirement or one that involves a mix of work and leisure during your

LOCAL FINANCE Patrick S. O’Connor working in some way. And more and more folks are going back to work after they retire. The main reason seems obvious: Economic pressures rooted in the recent recession and tight job market has forced some Americans to postpone retirement. Pension plans have become scarce – or unable to deliver the promised benefit due to corporate finance problems, leaving fewer workers with a secure retirement nest egg. And rising health-care costs have prompted some workers to stay in the workforce in order to benefit from an employer-provided health insurance plan. But others are embracing the prospect of extending their working years. Generational differences are a major reason. The baby boomers have always been a generation that wanted to make a difference and change the world. It’s not in their nature to live unproductive lives, and that’s

post-65 years, it’s important to plan early in order to make your vision a reality. Your vision of retirement should be part of your financial strategy throughout your life. If you know that you want to start a business or launch a new career at age 60, your financial strategy needs to accommodate that goal. Exploring the answers to questions such as “What’s my ideal retirement scenario?” and “What do I need in terms of financial support?” can help you build new choices into your retirement strategy, choices that fit not only the current economic reality but your goals as an individual. Beyond security and independence, what will you pursue during the next phase of your life?

GM says new Corvette to start around $52,000 The Associated Press

gets a new 450-horsepower, 6.2-liter V-8 engine that can go to four cylinders on the highway to save fuel. A new sevenspeed manual transmission is standard. Even the base model can go from zero to 60 mph in under four seconds, a few tenths of a second faster than the current model. Dealers say customers already are putting down deposits. “Every day you have someone coming in wanting to know about the new Corvette,” says Bill Perkins, owner of two Chevrolet dealerships in the Detroit suburbs. “You have a lot of enthusiasts out there. You have a lot of people that have purchased Corvettes before. A lot of people come in wanting to know the price, how soon they can get one.” A $1,400 increase is “not that much of a change when you look at everything that’s happened to the car,” said John Fitzpatrick, marketing manager for Chevrolet perfor-

DETROIT – General Motors said Friday that a base model of the 2014 Corvette Stingray will start at just under $52,000. Considering everything that GM put into the newest Corvette, the $1,400 price increase over the current model seems pretty modest. The 2014 Corvette goes on sale this summer. The latest version was completely redone, and shares only two parts with the current model, which is nine years old. The car was the talk of the Detroit auto show in January because of the dramatic changes GM made to it. The 1,000-person team at GM made the 2014 version lower and sleeker, saving weight by replacing the steel structure with aluminum. The hood is made of lightweight carbon fiber. The interior gets a more modern look with new touch screens. Under the hood, the car

The car performs similar to a Porsche 911, yet a comparably equipped 911 would cost $100,000, Fitzpatrick said. When pricing the Corvette, GM knew it had to avoid giving sticker shock to younger

buyers, who should like all the new features. The average Corvette buyer is a male around 50 years old, Fitzpatrick said. “We want to retain that loyal Corvette customer. We also realize that we do have to

attract a younger buyer and do things that make the car aspirational to them.” The car’s gas mileage will be released later, but GM says it will do better than the current Corvette’s 26 mpg on the highway.

By PHILLIP ALDER Newspaper Enterprise Association

Bob Woodward, an investigative journalist who is an associate editor for The Washington Post, said, “The central dilemma in journalism is that you don’t know what you don’t know.” South might believe he faces a dilemma in this deal. He opens one club, which might be with only a three-card suit. When his partner responds one heart, should he rebid two clubs to conirm that he has a real club suit, or one spade to show his major? For experienced players, this is not a dilemma. They love majors and dislike minors. South must rebid one spade. (If he rebids two clubs, he categorically denies a four-card major.) If North does not raise spades, South can bid clubs again on the next round to show his length in that suit. Then, North has enough to raise to two spades, which promises four-card support. South re-evaluates and jumps to four spades, hoping in particular to establish and run his club suit. West leads the diamond king. When East signals encouragingly with the 10, West continues the suit. How should South play

after rufing the third diamond? Declarer should realize that a club discard on dummy’s heart king is a red herring. Instead, he should play to establish his club suit. The best line is to cash the club ace, play two rounds of trumps ending on the board, and lead another club. If East follows, South should put up his king, although if that is then ruffed, he will go down. Bridge often involves some guesswork. Here, East does best to discard, but South wins, ruffs a club in the dummy, and must end with 10 tricks.

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - The possibility of you fulfilling a number of secret ambitions looks to be pretty good in the year ahead. Your sense of timing will be better than it has been in the past. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- If you are far too sensitive for your own good and read all kinds of slights into the actions or words of others, you’re likely to let the least little thing ruin your day. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- There’s a good chance that most of your perceptions won’t be in line with reality. You’ll allow your imagination to make erroneous judgments that won’t serve your interests. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Do your best to accomplish as many essential tasks as possible early in the day. As the afternoon closes in, your sense of priorities might dissolve. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It’ll be important to guard against your more extravagant inclinations. If you lack control, you won’t be too effective at managing your resources. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Involvements with others are likely to go much smoother when conducted early in the day. Don’t wait until the afternoon, when everyone’s patience will be wearing thin. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- There is a strong possibility that you might judge people based on your emotions rather than your logic. If you do, others will evaluate you in the same manner. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- If you feel compelled to keep up with the Joneses, you’ll quickly exhaust your resources. Status isn’t worth bankruptcy. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Be realistic regarding the demands you make of loved ones. Without realizing it, you might expect more of them then they’re able to give. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If you have some confidential information that you’re anxious to talk about, make certain that you don’t spill the beans to the wrong people. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Because you’re likely to be unusually receptive to investment proposals, be extra careful that you can tell the good from the bad. Don’t act impulsively. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- You’re opening yourself up for disappointment if you expect credit for an accomplishment that you have yet to achieve. Do what needs doing, be patient and let your deeds speak for themselves. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- To be successful, you must be tenacious and quick on your feet. If one of these elements is missing, you won’t have much to boast about.
